== would it be appropriate to link to the combine overwiki? ==


in an edit of a page I was going to reference something from halflife, would it be appropriate to link to a article on the combine overwiki (I heard there was some tension between the wikis).

:You can certainly link to the Combine Overwiki from this wiki. There's no problem. In fact, this wiki's [[Main Page]] links to the Combine Overwiki in the Valve Wiki Network section at the bottom.
:What isn't OK is to copy-paste content from the Combine Overwiki into Portal Wiki. This isn't due to tension, it's just a text content license issue.

== Forgot your password doesn't works. ==
 
Every time I clicked "Forgot your password" I got ''"Error sending mail: Unknown error in PHP's mail() function."''I've been trying to log in for weeks. Thankfully I still had my old laptop with my passwords, so I could log in. Anyway, thought I should report the  broken lost password thing.  [[User:Unowninator|Unowninator]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 04:19, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

== Your Bird article ==
 
Hello Sven, i may have noticed on https://half-life.fandom.com that your user article (Bird) is [https://half-life.fandom.com/wiki/Bird_(Portal_2) legit] and maybe you can move your Bird article to the Main article stream?

: Hey. My bird article is written out like satire, so it ''itself'' cannot be made into a normal article without rewrites to make it appropriate. It's intended to be hard to find because it's generally just used to test formatting stuff. By all means, feel free to adapt it into a serious article. But as-is, it can't be.

== CSS access ==
Hi Sven! Do you have access to [[MediaWiki:Common.css|CSS page]] as a moderator? I need it for [[Template:Old Aperture infobox|Underground]] Screenshot stuff and [[Portal Stories: Mel]] [[Template: Mel Old Aperture infobox|Underground Template]] stuff.
If not, do you know an administrator which is still active?
[[User:Thedoczek|Doczek]] ([[User talk:Thedoczek|talk]]) 17:51, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
: I checked that the only still active administrator is [[User:i-ghost|I-ghost]], and [[User:WindPower|WindPower]] is semi-dead. Every other admin is fully dead.

== Notability issue ==
 
Hi Sven! There is a little conversation on [[Aperture Laboratories Roblox Testing Initiative]] on it is notable or not. The issuer is [[User:Luke18033]] and the user is issuing a Marked for Deletion notice. I'm informing you just for a heads up!

== Is it okay to use Templates on signatures? ==
 
Hi Sven! I just want to ask you, if using Templates as Signatures are okay, because sometimes my signature kinda of messed up a talk page's formatting.

: Look, I created <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:sentby|'''sentby''']]<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> template, and I used it below :) Sent by [[User:Thedoczek|Doczek]] ([[User talk:Thedoczek|talk]])
:: It's "okay" in the sense that if you can condense it into a user-template that you can just insert, ''and'' it still says who wrote it and at what time, that's fine. Large blocks of text just for a name is a bit much. Also note that you can just sign your posts with 4 tildes, like how: <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki> results in [[User:Sven|Sven Cakemann]] ([[User talk:Sven|talk]]) 20:54, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 
::: I'd rather not allow it, especially since the {{tlx|ambox}} template is way too huge and messes up with the page styling.

== Can you fix these templates? ==
 
Hi Sven! I have a Collaborative Disposition Test result Template, but the switch function is kinda bugged up!
 
Can you fix the switch function?

[[Fire Suppression]] <-- the redirect one
Sent by [[User:Headquarter8302|Headquarter8302]] ([[User talk:Headquarter8302|talk]]) at 06:04, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
: Nah. Having a redirect is a good thing. Also, I hope that you're not copying from the Overwiki. I'm only saying this because they tend to... I guess, over-include things (super minor characters, obscure things getting entire pages for them) and it's against ''their'' policy to copy wholesale their work.

::I don't, it's just that the page was including a mechanic in the finale where the gels would wash off, it is an obstacle too. Btw the overwiki used CC-BY-SA 4.0 and us use CC-SA 4.0 and they both use Attribution license (except for overwiki, that used ShareAlike rather than licensing the original work)
