I'm proposing this Wiki-tan to be the site mascot. It's similar to Wikipe-tan, but more in an earthbound-style. Created by PreacherJr of the Earthbound Amino.

::::I think a new wiki would be a good idea. The alternative would be to have a namespace in this wiki, but that would get things too messy, too quickly. A fanon wiki helps bring a lot of activity to an otherwise dying franchise, and as Tacopill said, there is actually a scary high number of fan games and fan content being made.

Hi! This is Wraith, a bureaucrat over at [http://www.pikminfanon.com Pikmin Fanon]. We have a project in the works to create a Nintendo Fanon Network that will initially have a Nintendo Fanon wiki where Earthbound will have a section. We will have coverage of Earthbound Fanon as well as romhacks. So, a coverage expansion may not be necessary. We are still in the planning and outreach phase, but perhaps some users here would be interested in helping out! We have [https://discord.gg/2eV52Dzp4k a Discord Server] for the purposes of planning and gaining support. If you think you would be interested, you can always join the server. But once the wiki is operational, I will provide an update with a link to it, so that users here can post romhack documentation! Thanks for your time, [[User:Wraith|Wraith]] ([[User talk:Wraith|talk]]) 17:20, 22 July 2021 (UTC) | |||
== Main page layout change == | |||
Do you think it looks fine or was it better before? <span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS">'''[[User:OmegaToad64|<font color="dodgerblue">Omegα</font>]][[User talk:OmegaToad64|<font color="red">Toαd</font>]][[Special:contributions/OmegaToad64|<font color="mediumseagreen">64</font>]]'''</span> [[Image:Toadsig.png|20px]] 10:39, 4 September 2020 (UTC) | |||
== HTML == | |||
Just so people are aware, I've been asking all the wikis in our hosting to switch to more modern [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:HTML_5 HTML standards]. So, please don't reverse these changes. [[User:Tacopill|Tacopill]] ([[User talk:Tacopill|talk]]) 12:51, 4 September 2020 (UTC) | |||
:Alright thanks for the heads up. I'll make sure to remember. <span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS">'''[[User:OmegaToad64|<font color="dodgerblue">Omegα</font>]][[User talk:OmegaToad64|<font color="red">Toαd</font>]][[Special:contributions/OmegaToad64|<font color="mediumseagreen">64</font>]]'''</span> [[Image:Toadsig.png|20px]] 13:02, 4 September 2020 (UTC) | |||
== resize main page sprites == | |||
The sprites on the main page look too small: the Ninten sprite.png, Lucas stand, and Ness sprite.png. Anyone want to get rid of the 15px, 20px? [[User:Results May Vary|Results May Vary]] ([[User talk:Results May Vary|talk]]) 04:35, 17 September 2020 (UTC) | |||

==Suggestion for licensing== | |||
Currently our licenses on the site are as follows: | |||
*Copyright | |||
*Public domain | |||
{{clear}} | |||
This is not particularly descriptive for either type of licensing. This is why I suggest expanding into the following: | |||
*Copyright splits into | |||
**Artwork | |||
**Game sprite | |||
**Game screenshot | |||
**Scanned (such as guides or game covers) | |||
**Audio | |||
**Video (if applicable) | |||
**Copyright (miscellaneous) | |||
{{clear}} | |||
*Public domain splits into: | |||
**Public domain | |||
**Unsure | |||
**No license | |||
{{clear}} | |||
*Potentially look into a Creative Commons template that uses variable switches depending on the type used, for example <nowiki>{{CC-BY-SA|3.0}}</nowiki> renders the creative commons standard attribution 3 license. | |||
{{clear}} | |||
For those concerned this would be too much work to change existing files, unfortunately a majority of the 400 images I have dealt with in the past few days contain ''no'' licensing whatsoever. The introduction of more specific licensing, especially if sources can be more standardized, will help demonstrate why we believe files are fair use as well as being able to automatically categorize images by type. Most other wikis use this in practice to great success. Anyone have any thoughts? [[User:Trig Jegman|Trig]] - 15:03, 18 September 2020 (UTC) | |||
:I think that's a great idea! I've also noticed a ''lot'' of files have no licensing and it would be great to have more specific ones to use when adding licensing to them (as well as updating files with existing licensing).

== Ads when logged in? == | |||
Does anyone else get ads when logged in? Until recently ads wouldn't show when I'm logged in, it is actually causing problems when editing by slowing things down or accidentally clicking an ad when trying to view a preview. If there is a way to remove the ads then I would appreciate the help. <span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS">'''[[User:OmegaToad64|<font color="dodgerblue">Omegα</font>]][[User talk:OmegaToad64|<font color="red">Toαd</font>]][[Special:contributions/OmegaToad64|<font color="mediumseagreen">64</font>]]'''</span> [[Image:Toadsig.png|20px]] 00:49, 5 November 2020 (UTC) | |||
:The code we had in place to not show ads for logged in users, had to be commented out due to a compatibility issue that pops up when you update MediaWiki to 1.35. We'll put it back in once we figure out a way how to do so. [[User:Tacopill|Tacopill]] ([[User talk:Tacopill|talk]]) 02:41, 5 November 2020 (UTC) | |||
::Alright that's ok thanks for the help. <span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS">'''[[User:OmegaToad64|<font color="dodgerblue">Omegα</font>]][[User talk:OmegaToad64|<font color="red">Toαd</font>]][[Special:contributions/OmegaToad64|<font color="mediumseagreen">64</font>]]'''</span> [[Image:Toadsig.png|20px]] 06:07, 5 November 2020 (UTC) | |||
== Updating == | |||
We will be updating WikiBound to version 1.35 tomorrow. During this time, the wiki will be locked. At best, the process should take about a half hour. [[User:Alex95|Alex95]] ([[User talk:Alex95|talk]]) 17:18, 3 March 2021 (UTC) | |||
== Was the WikiBound skin discontinued? == | |||
Noticed when logging in the WikiBound skin is missing, and the default is monobook. I'm guessing an update might've caused compatibilty issues. If this is the case would anyone be opposed to me editing the monobook skin to make our skin a bit more unique? --<span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS">'''[[User:OmegaToad64|<font color="dodgerblue">Omegɑ</font>]][[User talk:OmegaToad64|<font color="red">Toɑd</font>]][[Special:contributions/OmegaToad64|<font color="mediumseagreen">64</font>]]'''</span> [[File:Toadsig.png|20px]] 03:22, 14 December 2021 (UTC) | |||
Unfortunately, yes. The WikiBound skin broke on the move to 1.36, and Grifkuba has since moved onto 1.37. It's not Grifkuba policy to maintain custom skins, and while we may reevaluate this one day, we intend to leave | |||
it up to communities to supply us with patches for new versions. [[User:Ampera|Ampera]] ([[User talk:Ampera|talk]]) 20:17, 18 December 2021 (UTC) | |||
:<s>Wow I actually guessed correctly</s> Yeah stuff like this can happen. In the meantime though I can WikiBound-ize the monobook skin. Only problem is I can't see the edits I make to the sidebar boxes and tabs, hopefully it's just a glitch on my end and not something that affects everyone. --<span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS">'''[[User:OmegaToad64|<font color="dodgerblue">Omegɑ</font>]][[User talk:OmegaToad64|<font color="red">Toɑd</font>]][[Special:contributions/OmegaToad64|<font color="mediumseagreen">64</font>]]'''</span> [[File:Toadsig.png|20px]] 13:50, 19 December 2021 (UTC) | |||
