ok, i ignored it for a long time, but i've just upgraded the software, so now at least the default style will be intact again, and maybe some of the new features will be useful. also, i think i can make accounts for y'all if you want an account, so if you're someone i like/trust, then ask away, and thou shalt receive.

who knows ... i certainly didn't go over the mediawiki docs in detail. i know there have been like 48832940900342 security exploits though so that was the main reason why i updated.

that and the default style's images missing was really ghetto.

And a reload button?

Umm... what is your vision for the wiki, nate? I've added some content (mostly SW descriptions and vids). I've been reluctant to cut much due to possible historical value, but there is still some copperandterence trash left in some of the corners.

asked grenola a while ago to consolidate all of the vids so that there are no broken links in there, and i think he actually did his part of that (putting all the vids in the /prime2 dir), but i think it stalled when we were trying to automate changing the links. need someone like radix who knows a lot about mysql, except he's always at work getting paid to know a lot about mysql. so yeah, definitely want to keep it up/intact/looking good, especially now that i have more than one wiki to maintain, so there's no reason not to keep it up to date softwarewise. i can dish out powers/new accounts if y'all want.

ISTR concluding that the problem would be quicker to solve manually than by automation - because I suck, most likely.

I may not be c.bags04 but...

As for the consolidated videos, what about all of the referenced videos to the now defunct user directories?  A random (and obviously stupid) test for a vid in the base directory wasn't fruitful, nor were checks for stores in the obvious places (vids, videos, moving_pictures, ...).

Will the wiki be extended for prime3?  If so, will user accounts carry over for it?
DJGrenola

Many of the videos / pics etc. perished for one reason or another, specifically that people had hosted them externally and then deleted them later, or hosted them on m2k2 and then deleted them.

In the base directory (metroid2002.com/prime2) we archived the following files:

Many of the vids still exist in my home directory (because I made a lot of videos for that wiki), but I'd like to get rid of them at some stage, so they ought to be repointed to the /prime2/ subdir.

If there are any other files that are still hosted externally that need moving to that directory, let me know and I'll get it done.

Anything else that isn't in that list and isn't externally hosted can reasonably be assumed to be lost.

HTH.

2006-07-10 09:04:32 pm
it's possible that i can find some of the videos declared lost on the aforementioned backups. no promises, but i know at least one was done that included the user directories between november 2004 (when the wiki started) and earlier this year (when i deleted the user accounts). i will need a list of exact (case sensitive) filenames.

and yes, we will be doing the wiki again for prime 3. i was going to make another one, but if you think the same one would work, then by all means, go for it. i'll give out accounts through a signup system here on the forum.

Ready and willing.
Making seperate wikis might be better to avoid namespace collisions, for general top level stuff like "speed tricks".
nate
2006-07-10 10:54:37 pm
yeah, i was thinking that, what with the problems we're already having with the smart tags on the forum. alternatively, we could have the actual spaces be the same, just have "... in prime 2" and "... in prime 3" as subsections. in the interest of minimalism, i have to say i prefer the latter approach.

I was going to say that I still had the contents of my FTP saved on my comp (ie, I still have the DVG vid), but it looks like you already got all of the files I'd posted anyway…

For future reference, if a link in an old post is broken, PM me for the file.

Also, did the DVG vid ever make it to the actual Prime 2 section, or did it just die in the wiki?  I haven't been able to find it, so the answer is probably 'no', but I don't think it hurts to ask…
