Welcome user tag
On the <welcomeuser> tag on the front page whenever I log on it shows up and says that I have a gift request for "-1 gifts". - S.B.44 [Talk] 01:30, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
- Okay, that is weird. I'll need to dig into it — please remind me on IRC about this so that I don't forget. --Jack Phoenix 06:40, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
User page
Uh, for some reason my user page is only saying 1 edit, when I had at least a thousand before the swap. Is this normal at first, or is something wrong with it? Blade Bane 03:02, 18 October 2010 (EDT)Blade bane
- Captain Blade bane, I'm seeing "Edits 831" on your userpage as of now. --Jack Phoenix 06:40, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
- Odd, must just be a display thing then. However, my halopedia mainspace edits was 1035 according to special:editcount, but over here it only has it as 694. Shouldn't my overall be higher? (Don't mean to be sounding like an edit whore, just curious is all). Blade Bane 06:47, 18 October 2010 (EDT)Blade bane
- Yes, we're looking into what might be causing this and seeing how we can resolve this issue. --Jack Phoenix 08:31, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
- There's a few missing revisions from some of the articles. We're waiting for an updated wikia dump so we can have those imported soon. Nicmavr 08:33, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
- Yeah, Jack, the full MediaWiki dump wasn't actually complete. Some pages only have one revision from an older dump, which is why edit counts are down. And when a new user logs in from Wikia, aka "registers" here, Special:UpdateEditCounts needs to be run or they'll only have one edit. --User:Porplemontage/sig 11:28, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
- Could something be done to make the edit counts update automatically? I don't mind having to use that tool every now and then, but an automated process could simplify things a bit. Nicmavr 11:50, 18 October 2010 (EDT)

Move Article
Apparently, that function is denied to a rollback user. I tried to move Team beta to Beta Red, and it denied me permission to perform the function. -- Specops306 Autocrat Qur'a 'Morhek 04:16, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
- You need to be autoconfirmed (in the autoconfirmed implicit group) to be allowed to move pages. We have altered $wgAutoConfirmAge and $wgAutoConfirmCount from the software defaults; I'm sure that you'll pass $wgAutoConfirmCount, but maybe you don't pass $wgAutoConfirmAge — we all know that you've been around for a long time, but maybe MediaWiki thinks that your account is "new", because technically speaking, it was created when you first logged in with your Wikia credentials. --Jack Phoenix 06:40, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
Youtube Videos
I'm not sure if it was like this before the move or not, because I just recently joined, but I found that the Youtube videos on the Halo 3 cutscene page weren't working I assume that they won't be working on other pages, but haven't looked into it yet. -- Andrew996 18:02, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
They seem to be working now actually. My computer might have been doing something or it might be an on/off kind of thing. sorry for using your time if it turns out to be nothing. --Andrew996 18:08, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
