Peachy documentation
So. http://compwhizii.net/peachy/wiki/Manual/Getting_Started is part of the documentation. I tell you, writing documentation is hard! Do you have any specific ideas or guides for what you want to see in the documentation? ( X! ·  talk )  · @105  · 01:31, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
 * You're off to a good start. As long as people can figure out how to make it say hello world, you stand a good chance of sucking them in and getting them to play around with your software. Actually, writing documentation is kinda my specialty; coding is what I tend to have more trouble with. As I figure out Peachy, I'll probably document what I learn. So, you decided to go with your own wiki rather than MediaWiki.org, eh? At least it's a MediaWiki installation rather than one of these other wiki types.

PHP bot to delete all pages?
Hi there Tisane, I saw your note on User_talk:Pilk about PHP bots and your UploadBot. That looks very good, I was wondering if it was possible to create a bot to delete all pages on a wiki. It's concerning the MediaWiki project Pilk is talking about and yes, I do have admin, so I can delete pages, I was merely wondering if you could speed that up. Thanks.

Peachy
Thanks for the advice with Peachy! Will definitely have a look. I also wanted to let you know that our new wiki is up and running! Thank you very much, no issues or problems at all. -- Pilk (talk) 00:39, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Vita-Mix
A tag has been placed on Vita-Mix, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as FAQ/Business for more information. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Speedy deletion nomination of GodBlock
A tag has been placed on GodBlock requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

Re: Becoming a developer
Thanks. I bookmarked the page. I don't have the time to get those skills though. I am a basic webmaster, and CSS drives me nuts. I also have other projects. So I do what I can. I have learned French, but I am not really a language, coding, or math person. Calculus drove me crazy in college. I am good at what math I know, but want to avoid higher-level study of those 3 areas. I am good at the interface stuff though in my opinion, but I don't have the temperament for coding.

I have found that the interface between Mediawiki and readers is where the action is. GUI rules. I have seen results over time in the Mediawiki interface. The village pumps, CSS boards, etc. do get things done. So I try to help out in those areas. --Timeshifter (talk) 20:04, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * lol. I tend to follow my calling, interests of the moment. Sometimes I slog through some boring technical details, but only until I get too bored, or until I reach some kind of satisfaction. I enjoy seeing tables and charts reach fruition, for example. Even if it is sometimes a hassle. --Timeshifter (talk) 22:39, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
