RewriteRule

RE: Removing Index from your wiki:

It worked for me by removing the ?

# do the rewrite
RewriteRule ^wiki/?(.*)$ /w/index.php?title=$1 [L,QSA]

-->

# do the rewrite
RewriteRule ^wiki/(.*)$ /w/index.php?title=$1 [L,QSA]

Re: Can you please modify the Sidebar

Hello,

I could modify the Sidebar, but I would know which links should be removed, and also to hear some feedback, or at least to see if there isn't any objection. I noticed you started a discussion at MediaWiki talk:Sidebar; I would suggest to wait some comments.

Meanwhile, you may personnalize your "monobook" (for example, you can hide the menu "beyond the web" by adding the code #p-Beyond_the_web { display: none; } in your subpage monobook.css), or even the search directly in your browser (depending on its capabilities).

mediawiki talk:sidebar

Odessaukrain, I went to my /skins/MonoBook.php and switched the positions for the sections of php code for the sidebar and for the search form (around line 120 for mediawiki-1.11.0) and the search form has gone on top. I don't know what the developers think, but the problem may be that all wikimedia projects are currently using the same monobook skin and it is not easy to get wikimedia-wide consensus on this issue. I don't know. But I agree with you, and it may worth trying. Hillgentleman 18:08, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Images previously mentioned.

Hi. I'm aware you're uninterested in discourse on image licensing, however I brought up the issues I'd mentioned earlier at Meta:Requests for deletion ([1]. Before it occurs to you to do so, removal of the discussion section would be construed as blockable vandalism. Feel free to add source and licensing information and remove the unwarranted "deletion nazi" references in your image description pages to ensure your contributions are speedily kept. Or not. Up to you. ~Kylu (u|t) 23:48, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Kylu, you know, if you spent as much time adding tags to other people's image uploads, and adding actual content to wikipedia, everyone would be better of. But helping others doesn't give you as much of a power rush does it?

The warranted comments are already removed.

I am very interested in a discourse in imaging licensing, I had an intellectual property class in law school. I am not interested in a discourse with people who have no legal background, who are not interested in the actual law, and who use mediawiki forms to harness power and contol which they lack in real life.

Why don't you simply tell me what tag I should add to the image, or add it yourself? This would have been much easier than wasting my time harassing me.

I probably am more aware of wikpolicy than you are, because I have to constantly defend myself against deletionists such as yourself.

Get a life. Odessaukrain 18:27, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Licensing of edits to User:Happy-melon/Templates

As I said on the talk page, I intend to move, or at least retain the option to move, this page to mediawiki.org, where it would be in the public domain. Are you prepared, therefore, to release all your edits to that page into the public domain? If not, I'll have to undo them, and I don't want to do that because they're pretty good; I would very much appreciate it, therefore, if you could post a note on User talk:Happy-melon/Templates noting that you release all edits to User:Happy-melon/Templates to the public domain. Many thanks, Happy‑melon 20:12, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
