Forums unreachable

http://www.oesf.org/forums is generating a PHP error. -- Meyer 22:08, 26 September 2007 (EDT)

RESOLVED: Up and running as of now. -- Meyer (talk) 02:49, 27 September 2007 (EDT)

Image galleries broken

See Special:Newimages, Special:Mostimages. Pages display with a slew of PHP error messages at top, "Warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]: Permission denied in /public/vhost/o/oesf/html/includes/GlobalFunctions.php on line 1670". Most thumbnails all blank or show only text "Error creating thumbnail: Unable to create destination directory". -- Meyer 22:32, 26 September 2007 (EDT)

Page header OESF logo

...was in the upper-left corner of all pages. I'm sure I can find instructions for how to set it, but I can't find the four-square OESF logo image among currently uploaded files. Anyone know where it is? -- Meyer 22:39, 26 September 2007 (EDT)

The how is easy: Upload an image and name it "Wiki.png". Recommended size is maximum of 135x155 pixels. The question remains, where is our logo? -- Meyer (talk) 02:49, 27 September 2007 (EDT)

Sysop's bookshelf

General references on MediaWiki administration. Add to the list freely. -- Meyer (talk) 03:10, 27 September 2007 (EDT)

The Robot Wars

OESF Wiki's quest to banish the bots who have blighted our bodacious borough. First, some reference:

  1. Blocking Spam in MediaWiki
  2. Wikipedia AntiSpamBot FAQ
  3. Wikipedia Spam

Wiki Forum

This is fine and all, but the primary contact point for the Wiki is going to be on the forums at http://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showforum=156. While I will do my best to stay up to date here, I can't guarantee I'll be checking this page all the time. -- dz
