Scala file pages

• Pages that are scala files need to be wrapped in code blocks and have extra line breaks removed. (EDIT: yes, I will be doing this automatically -- stay "tuned" :) )Mike Battaglia (talk) 17:27, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
  • There are a whole lot of these pages! Is there a way to do this (semi-)automatically? Or at least to generate a list of, say, all pages that contain ".scl"? To complicate matters further, some pages contain multiple .scl files (and no other content). Another option (not sure if better or worse) would be to transfer these .scl-only pages to actual files. Thoughts? I'm happy to help, just not sure of the best way to proceed... Spt3125 (talk) 03:19, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
    • Yes, I'll be doing this automatically, it's on my list -- no way we're doing this by hand and this is a simple regex job. Edited above to make clearer...
    • These pages have use in people clicking Random page and seeing random interesting tunings. PiotrGrochowski (talk) 04:22, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
      • It may be worth looking into excluding the Scala files from Random page results, maybe using something like Extension:ExcludeRandom. --Tyler (talk) 13:03, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
        • But whyyyy? The fanmade tunings only make Special:Random even better, inspiring people to use the tunings! PiotrGrochowski (talk) 13:05, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
          • Heh, if you *like* having the Scala files in random pages, might as well keep them. But, just thinking, maybe we could create a "Random tuning" link right below it... :) Mike Battaglia (talk) 13:48, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
            • How could we have split random page generators in MediaWiki? PiotrGrochowski (talk) 16:27, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
          • Sorry, I misread your comment and thought it was a complaint. Ignore me. Tyler (talk) 13:51, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
      • Excellent, thanks Mike! If that regex job can include adding a category such as "Scala files" or "scl" to those pages, that would be very useful i think. Some pages already have these ("tags" from Wikispaces), but many do not. Spt3125 (talk) 00:44, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
• Random thought: what about moving them to, say, scl.xen.wiki? Not sure if this would be good or bad...? Spt3125 (talk) 00:44, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

Done

Calculators/JavaScript is broken

• Pages like Just Intonation -- EDO calculator render catastrophically incorrectly. PiotrGrochowski (talk) 15:56, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
  • Hi PetrPiotr - yes, unfortunately MediaWiki doesn't support JavaScript. There are three or four "calculator" pages that have broken as a result. We may be able to add some of this back in using Templates, but for now, this is unfortunately one of the (few) things that Wikispaces was able to do that MediaWiki doesn't support. Mike Battaglia (talk) 16:31, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
    • Why did you misspell my name, ... MiekMike? PiotrGrochowski (talk)
      • Oops - was talking to someone named "Petr" on Facebook at the same time, and I got my Petr's and my Piotr's mixed up... :) Mike Battaglia (talk) 16:51, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
    • The talk page has a link for a webpage that almost works, but fails when numbers are entered. PiotrGrochowski (talk) 18:41, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Flawed Languages links

• In the Deutsch version https://de.xen.wiki/w/Willkommen, the left Languages links link to websites that are out of tune. PiotrGrochowski (talk)
  • The English link is slightly out of tune, linking to Home instead of the actual Main Page. The Xenharmonicの世界へ 日本語 link is very out of tune, being a broken link. PiotrGrochowski (talk) 18:58, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
    • Working now - Mike Battaglia (talk) 22:32, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
      • The "Xenharmonicの世界へ 日本語" link is still very out of tune, being a broken link. The Español links are weird: they link to pages in en.xen.wiki, while es.xen.wiki has no Languages links. PiotrGrochowski (talk) 04:36, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
        • Huh? The Japanese link on the German wiki works for me, it goes to [1]. Maybe it reloaded in the background and hasn't changed for you yet? Sometimes caching issues can lead to your browser (or the site) displaying an older version of a page. Mike Battaglia (talk) 13:50, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
          • It works because you fixed it! PiotrGrochowski (talk) 16:43, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

SVG broken

• SVG's not displaying correctly. Got this working before, let's see what I can do... Mike Battaglia (talk) 17:11, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
  • Now works. Mike Battaglia (talk) 17:27, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

"Content Pages"

• "Content page" count is wrong: Special:Statistics Mike Battaglia (talk) 15:51, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
  • Now works. Mike Battaglia (talk) 17:27, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
