Progress Bar *** -- 𝘼𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙡 04:35, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

Whichever one of you fascionaries hit the 1000 goal, also broke the progress bar. Congratulations. Yhere was a rare bug embedded in it that can only occur in certain rare situations and you managed to find it. It took me almost 4 hours to fix. On the plus side, our bar is better than anyone's now.

Visual Editor -- 𝘼𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙡 21:13, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

By necessity, certainly not by popular demand, I have removed the buggy-as-fuck visual editor. I know some will lament this, but it was damaging pages, dropping categories, denying access to parts of a page it did not understand and "intuitively" doing things that did not make sense. It is not at all difficult to do things manually. Thete is a preview button, and I am happy to help. Its easy to use the markup. You just need to get used to it.

Don't panic, don't panic. (I'm not panicking!) (much) -- Francis Meyrick (talk) 19:43, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

? Not sure if I follow that. If the server crashes? I wasn't here.

4 squiggley. Things. Did I do this right? Francis Meyrick (talk) 19:43, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

If you meant for this to be a new topic, the you did this correctly, except you do not need the leading colon. However, if you meant for this to be a response to something, then the leading colon was perfect, but you should have tapped the edit tab on the topic you were responding to, rather than the new topic tab. Archie didn't think to add that bit to the instructions at the top, but fortunately you have ME. 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 21:45, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

okay, that was helpful. Francis Meyrick (talk) 22:48, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

The colons work like tabs. I just fixed yours. Most people just add one extra more than the person above them. Its just so the whole thing is easier to read. 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 02:38, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

New features

If you were gone over Christmas, and if you have family you should have been, you might notice a change or two to the platform.

• The Fash-Radio had a couple of background upgrades to performance. Expect the next feature to be a log-in requirement. The problem is that the radio and FasciPedia are still separate entities because my login is more secure than the FasciPedia login, and I don't want to dumb-down the radio to make it compatable. That means I have to smarten-up the FasciPedia login, and thats more work.
• The search functions and AI now used Case *insensitive* deployment.
  • It now automatically redirects to a page that has same spelling but different capitalization.
  • It's one very simple query, the performance hit should be almost unnoticeable.
  • The user having to figure out the correct URL is often more of a performance hit.
  • This improvement uses a 301 "Moved Permanently" redirect, that should be fine for search engines.
  • Bing bot usually likes to crawl a site assuming it's case insensitive, rewriting all the valid URLs into lowercase, causing lots of 404 error responses in my logs, and prevents some of our pages to be indexed properly on that search engine.
• And the most notable change is the drop-down menu that you will find at the bottom of the edit screen. You don't have to type in Categories anymore. You can if you want to. Every article should have at least one category. So now just tap the junction at "Core categories". Check off which ever ones apply, open more trees if you have to. When you have checked all of the appropriate categories, just finish normally. You will no longer see the categories on your edit screen, but they are there, trust me. Enjoy the new system. It is magnatudes easier.

Archie, i'm already loving the new Category system! The old one was such a total grind. Can't really see a y difference in the chatbox, but its good to know that you're hard at work doing stuff that nobody can see or notice. I did try a few searches wirh mixed case...nice!

we shouldn't have any trouble making article quota either! Duff (talk) 08:36, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

The Chat Box -- 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 21:47, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

I'm lovin the chatbox, but we gotta have a way to keep trolls down. We just had one, and he wasn't really a problem, but ten more like him will render the chatbox useless. Archie is the only one that knows how to code this stuff, he coded the whole chatbox. 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 21:47, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

Welcome Maruku!! -- 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 22:30, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

Another new fascionary!! He's a GAB lurker, so he hasn't posted a great deal, but Archie knows him, so he's a great guy! Click HERE, and say hello! 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 22:30, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

We have a new Fascionary among us! Welcome User:Lebensraum5150 Whom I know very well from GAB. Those of you not on GAB should join and check out his contributions there! He's great! 𝘼𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙡 20:35, 4 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi!!!!!!!!!! Duff (talk) 08:39, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

The Confederazi problem -- 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 23:16, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

I think Confeferazi is a good kid, but sometimes he acts like a spoiled child. He keeps begging for his privileges back, and seems to only be here for the prizes, which is OK I guess, but his recent stunt aside, seems too immature to be given mod privileges. I love tbe kid, I think hes great in every other way. 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 23:16, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

When I first brought him on, I told him that if he busted his ass for a month, and shiwed me what a great Fascionary he could be, I mean if he really impressed me, that I would grant him full moderator status. Well its been a month, and this is where we are. I like the kid too, I really do, but I really can't affort another episode like we just had, and frankly, I hate the drama. I wish he'd just stay like he was that very first day or three. TONS of new articles, you know? I love the kid, its just hard to trust him. 𝘼𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙡 23:26, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

Um...I'm still on moderate. I've been following this whole saga. He acts like he's spoiled rotten, though I admit there could be issues I don't know about. But if you give this kid his goodies back, you better give me mine. I never tried to fuck you over, Archie. Duff (talk) 23:36, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

I'm going to make an arbitrary decision here. The way I see it, it was *me* who he wronged, and yes he could have potentially brought some heat onto FascIPedia and Archie, but that didn't happen. I also hold a position called "Judge" on this platform, so I am going to take him off moderation. Mostly because I am tired of approving his posts, but also because I don't think he'll do it again. He still has perms to earn back, and those will take time, but I also think he will be a fine Mod one day, if he can hold it together. Duff, I am taking you off Moderation as well. 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 21:50, 4 December 2022 (UTC)

Thank You! Duff (talk) 21:57, 4 December 2022 (UTC)

Fully agree with the decision MilleBracciaAlzate (talk) 15:49, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

(:) Confederazi: excuse me for you calling me a spoiled child but I fucking have autism so you better respect me and be patent with me and I fucking mean it.

You need to put six colons, with out the parentheses() in front of your reply, and sign with four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your comment. Look and copy what other people are doing. Fix it. I'm not fixing this one for you. Everyone on this site respected you right up until you tried to steal somebody's prize. If you want that respect back, you have to earn it. You could score big points with Archie (and me too) by creating a butt-load of new articles, like you did when you first came here. 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 22:44, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

Piasi D'cafe is now open! All Fascionaries welcome! Please remember to start new topics with the "New Topic" tab and place responses under it. New topics go to the TOP. Also, remember to indent your responses using a colon ":" and sign with four tildes "~~~~" THANK YOU!! 𝘼𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙡 20:50, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

This is awesome boss! 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 22:59, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

So what should the very first topic be? What should we talk about? 𝘼𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙡 23:06, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

I have an idea. Its something thats been on my mind a lot lately. User:Confederazi. Let me start a new topic. It will appear above this one, right? 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 23:10, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

Yes, that's right. 𝘼𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙡 23:17, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

Confederazi: I am willing to win Hitlers fork so I can make my great great uncle proud as he met Hitler before. He was a collector of many things and thought of getting Hitler's fork in case he died but unfortunately was shot by the soviets and failed to get it. If Bacchus was nice enough, I really want to fulfill my great great Uncles request I bet he would be happy, he would love to see that his great great nephew (me) would get it for him so I may have complete his collection. Almighty God I pray this happens, even if I don't win, it would be nice if Bacchus gave it to me anyways in exchange I work under him. Amen. Confederazi (talk) 14:17, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

No fucking way, if I win it, I'm keeping it. Its worth over a thousand bucks, are you kidding me??? Why do you think I'm busting my ass making new articles? If you want it, you gotta work for it, thats how the world works bud. 𝓑𝓪𝓬𝓬𝓱𝓾𝓼 (talk) 23:21, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
