== Forgot your password doesn't works. ==
== Single handedly ruins wiki ==


When I try to use the lost password thing, I got this:
They also insert trash at the top of pages.
''Error sending mail: Unknown error in PHP's mail() function.''


I thought I should tell someone. I couldn't log in for weeks, or even make a new account. Thank god my old laptop still had the password. Anyway, since you're the most recent staff member to contribute, I figured I should tell you. [[User:Unowninator|Unowninator]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 23:25, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi Tark! Remember when i make a statement where i would improve the banner for our wiki? Now i have created it. Then i remember, this isn't Wikipedia, this wiki doesn't support .svg files, sooo... damn. Can you notify a Sysop to make the wiki accept .svg files? For now i'll upload a .png version!

Hey Tark. As a starter, a belated congratulations on your adminship of the wiki! It seems that you're pretty much the only active staff member now.

== Clone account edits ==
Anyways, I have a question. I've seen the RC is notifying me of a lot of edits made to the help and project pages. Are there some changes regarding the wiki that I am not aware of? In fact, a more appropriate question is, what have I missed?


Hey there, Tark! Is there a way of reverting all the edits from the "Laurencegta" clone acounts? or atleast a quick way? All of them does add nothing notable to the articles, (especially the chamber ones that they edited the most). And is there a way from preventing a user from creating endless accounts like blocking the IP or something? Because looks like they are going to create new accounts over and over again.

::Thanks there! But i could not find your Steam profile and i do not have the permission to send you emails as my account is password only. Speaking of it, that account can create an unlimited number of new accounts as the email thing is not mandatory, and they are getting really salty around here with other users with personal attacks in other user pages.

(Recent) Changes to the wiki

Hey Tark. As a starter, a belated congratulations on your adminship of the wiki! It seems that you're pretty much the only active staff member now.

Anyways, I have a question. I've seen the RC is notifying me of a lot of edits made to the help and project pages. Are there some changes regarding the wiki that I am not aware of? In fact, a more appropriate question is, what have I missed?

Regards ~ Headquarter8302 06:57, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

Hellos! As for the recent changes, I'm just trying to tidy up the help pages a little and update some of the wording to match the TF2 wiki version.
For now, I'm just trying to figure out how to untangle everything. Content-wise, there's a lot to do still, especially reviewing some questionable edits that have been around for a few years:
Portal Test Chamber 00 - page title was changed from "Chapter 1 - Part 1: Test Chamber 00" to "Portal Test Chamber 00", includes a section named "Gallery example" which is empty, and a "Script" section, which is very badly formatted and probably not really relevant.
Portal has been moved and is now a disambiguation page.
