Bot mentioned rule breaking content
Over [[1]], your bot mentioned an article with a title not ok for scratch. I'm letting you know. I didn't remove it because it's not something that will scar people for life, it's just not okay to name browser extensions on Scratch. han614698 talk • contribs • profile 21:56, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for letting me know. I removed the title. I am not going to censor the revision however since I don't think it's a major enough policy/guideline violation to warrant that.

The captcha isn’t working
Sorry to contact you about this. It's not exactly related to the wiki. But I need your help. My school iPad blocks just about everything. I tried signing into one of my alts, and I accidentally misspelled my long password multiple times. I got onto the captcha page, but it's not loading! (Sorry if this image is kind of big. I don't have a compression site.)
It says to enter the test below, but there is no text below because it's not loading on my iPad. I tried waiting it out, and nothing's happening. What do I do?
Super_Scratch_Bros20 (talk / contribs) 16:25, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
- I really have no idea unfortunately. I have never had this happen to me. Since you mention the iPad blocks a lot of stuff, it's possible that the site hosting the captcha is blocked, but this is only speculation.
jvvg (talk | contribs) 16:53, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks anyway. I'm going to just wait and see if the captcha expires at some point.

I undid your revision
I undid your revision that removed "multiple consectutive "o"s" because accounts like "adhdjfnoooooooooo" are not taken AND not allowed. han614698 talk • contribs • profile 20:35, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
- Oh, interesting. I wonder what the reasoning for that is. Maybe it's for testing or something.
jvvg (talk | contribs) 21:22, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
Thoughts?
What do you think about this? User:ThisIsAnAccount#Contact_the_owner There's a google form link which collects my email if I go to fill it out. That's not allowed anymore, is it? han614698 talk • contribs • profile 11:47, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
- I think that was created before the ST specifically banned Google Forms. The bot owner is inactive these days so I'll remove it; anyone that really needs to contact them can use their talk page or Scratch profile.

9 o username
i saw on the create account page https://en.scratch-wiki.info/wiki/Creating_an_Account that it said you couldnt create an account with more than 9 o's. Just wanted to ask why.

- Ok. i's just weird that you cant create a username with 9 o's. It could just be a bug or something. i tried creating an account with the word "pizza" like a month ago and it said "username not allowed" so i put it on the disscussion fourms and they said it was a bug and they fixed it and now you can create one with "pizza" in it

Rules
Hi,
I saw on your userpage you gave a link to your Flikr. I don't think giving social media profiles and stuff is allowed by the community guildlines (I may be wrong). I mean, it is your userpage but i just wanted to let you know. SpaghettiAG852097- (talk | contribs) 17:03, 18 December 2022 (UTC)

Question
Dear Jvvg,
I am wondering if you can give me the wikitext for the navigation bar, which I would love to implement in my wiki page
Scratch_hellopizza (talk | contribs) 04:16, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- If you mean the navbar at the top ("Create", "Explore", ...) that's not wikitext, that's defined in code, available here. If you mean the "Navigation" section to the left, we render it here but the actual contents are defined in interface text. For example, the "Current Events" text and the "Current Events" link target.
jvvg (talk | contribs) 04:30, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

Scratch_hellopizza (talk | contribs) 23:28, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

Dear jvvg,
Thank you for your wonderful welcome to the wiki!
Additionally, I have a few questions:
is the scratch wiki open source?
does the scratch wiki use php?
Sincerely, Scratch_hellopizza (talk | contribs) 00:28, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, the Scratch Wiki is open source. It's powered by MediaWiki and runs on a number of extensions listed here. You can see all the ones purpose-built for the Scratch Wiki at our GitHub organization. Both MediaWiki itself and all of our extensions are built in PHP.

WikiMonitor
Hello Jvvg!
I was editing the wiki, when I noticed that WikiMonitor has not cleared the sandbox yet. It has been 18 hours and WikiMonitor has not cleared the sandbox. It usually clears every 4 hours.
Thanks SpaghettiAG852097- talk • contribs • profile 02:20, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
- Also, the edit that the user made in the sandbox was made on Visual Editor so it could maybe be a problem with the upgrade and visual editor because before the upgrade it worked fine.
SpaghettiAG852097- talk • contribs • profile 02:22, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
- Note: Just because the edit summaries say (Tag: Visual Edit) does not mean they were made with VE.
han614698 talk • contribs • profile 03:24, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
- Then what does it mean? I thought it meant it was made with VE
SpaghettiAG852097- talk • contribs • profile 03:50, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
- It means that it was made with Visual Editor unless it says "(Tag: Visual Edit: Switched). If it says switched then it means that it was source editor
SpaghettiAG852097- talk • contribs • profile 03:53, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

Believe it or not, WikiMonitor functioned exactly as intended when it didn't notify you for the unsigned post. I checked the logs and it registered the unsigned post, but it gives you three minutes to add a signature in case you realize you forgot right after saving, and it looks like you did add a signature within three minutes. jvvg (talk | contribs) 03:57, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

User:WikiMonitor/Disable - why protected??
Why is the page protected to Wikians and above, even though New Wikians can't edit userpages? Was {{open userpage}} on the page at some point? 2tables Talk | Contibutions | Scratch | Edits (681) 16:29, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
- The page was protected prior to the existence of the restriction on New Wikians being able to edit userpages. At this point the protection is purely symbolic, but gives yet another warning message when attempting to edit it, and is another safeguard in case there is a bug in the userspace restriction.

Very late welcome
I found a topic where a user invited someone to Scratch Wiki with the Welcome template over half a year after the user joined. Should it be removed, or is it honestly not that big of a deal? Super_Scratch_Bros20 (talk / contribs) 04:53, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
wikimonitor warning template?
Should we make template WikiMonitor warnings instead of just importing the source code? For example:
- {{User:WikiMonitor/Warnings/Unsigned}} for unsigned posts
- {{User:WikiMonitor/Warnings/Uncategorized}} for new pages that are uncategorized
2tables Talk | Contibutions | Scratch | Edits (681) 20:37, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

Is my signature okay? I know it uses a border, but i've seen many others like mine. 2tables Talk | Contibutions | Scratch | Edits (681) 12:53, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
- Per the custom signature rules, "[your] signature may not contain any background colors, other images, or borders." I think maybe we can relax the rule a bit, but as the rule currently stands you are out of compliance.
