I am the sysadmin that hosts this wiki. If there is a server issue or you want some super awesome extension added to the wiki, maybe a password on your account reset, then I am the person to contact.

Wiki Content Admins:

Discord Server for the games here: invite

TODO List

Server

front page prettying
- add some color and whatnot to not be lifeless
- change the footer to use an actual footer section
change front page links to list all 3 games, not just Magical Camp
switch up the mediawiki install to allow hosting multiple wikis off the same docker instance - shared logins this way?
get email working
- get notifications working
- get password resets working
- perhaps get account verification working?
- mailcow seems *very* heavy and quite frankly i am not sure i need all the extra bells and whistles, but it would be nice
  - I would like to use mailcow, which means i need to have the glop server be the dedicated email bounce server for all of my services
  - having it be a single server for all the services would make it simple to just offer email service as a matter of course
service availability detection
- i want to get notifications when the server goes down
longer term monitoring to just check the health of the server
backups of the docker containers to an offsite location (week of dailies, and then 3 months of weekly)

Wiki

fix all the broken wiki links Special:WantedPages
fix the categories for items. there are many missing category pages for things.
CSS styling for the wiki
- tables are lacking borders : done
- purple background and all that from the fandom wikia
  - CSS Variables
remove the extra pages that are not required any more
- Go through all the categories. I am not sure if there is any good reason to remove the discussion pages.
A map with clickable regions to take you to that region - this is just for fun
- MC Overworld map and maybe the camp map
- perhaps the extension is what i want?

Neat MediaWiki Extensions To Consider

Per Page CSS
Popups: Image previews when hovering over inter-wiki links
ImageMap: Make different regions of an image clickable links
ConfirmEdit: Adding in captcha support for edits to reduce spam possibility
Tabber: Have tabs within a page - perhaps have different versions of images like the camp rework or maybe censored versus uncensored images?
OpenGraphMeta: Give the ability to set some things like the main image that gets embedded in other sites
Description2: Better descriptions for sites scrape reading data via OpenMetaGraph tags so places like google actually get useful descriptions. Warning: This grabs the first content that is in <p> tags so it might not work *correctly on this wiki.
MsUpload: Allow multiple files to be uplaoded at the same time and also let files be uploaded from the edit page of an article.
CharInsert
CodeMirror: Mediawiki syntax highlighting while editing.
CentralNotice: For announcing maintenance when there is more than one wiki.
Mobile Frontend: Important config info so we don't disable the caching on the wiki. Only to consider later if we need a seperate skin than vector for mobile platforms.
- Apparently the recommended skin for mobile devices. May not need the extension if the apache detection thingy works.
