Tonight I finished my article on Pipkin Pippa. She was the rabbit vtuber who was blocked by the gunt live on stream earlier this year. I'm pretty sure it's currently the longest article on the wiki so far, but even though this was a relatively minor event in Ralph lore my tism wouldn't let me half-ass it.

Next time I find the time, I'll try to go in and flesh out the Chrissie Mayr article while the memories are still fresh, if nobody beats me to it.
 
Would this wiki focus on Ethan Ralph's life specifically or would it encompass the entire Ralph extended universe?
 
While the wiki is in its unfinished state, you should take the opportunity to change from this dogshit archaic wiki software to something optimized and from this century such as Wiki.JS

- Additional jannies added
- New accounts need manual approval to edit so contact staff (similar to CWCki policy)
- Existing accounts should be grandfathered in and if you run into problems just give a shout
- Several new themes including 2 dark options, choose here (registered users)

Definitely the latter, already several articles are in the works about different related figures. But an emphasis on Ethan himself of course.

Seems ugly and overly baroque. But feel free to discuss this and other alternatives here and make a case.
 
I'd have a bunch of obscure lore on minor ibs-time figures to contribute, related to and to a lesser extent including Q o P, but the proofs/caps/archive link lists are/were on a now defunct hard drive. So it'd depend entirely on your approach to how strict this is to be in regards to citations, more in wikipedia's direction or more in ED's direction.

ED and/or CWCki direction. Definitely don't worry about citing every little thing especially in the beginning although citation is a definite bonus. Benefit of being a wiki is that people will be able to hash stuff out and find citations if there winds up being controversy. But IMO at least I'd rather have content. True, mind you, but every jot and tittle does not need chapter and verse. Specifics can be hashed out in group consensus/talk pages if need be.

It's already the latter. Hell, my flagship work so far is an article on the pink cartoon rabbit.

I think you made a mistake in your post. You implied that you'd be linking to some wiki software which is optimized and not archaic, but then you linked to something written in fucking JavaScript. Care to try again?

Yeah no I've been working non-consensually with Javascript for another project (as in one that I get paid for) and it makes me want to die and I wouldn't even be dealing with the low level server shit/dependency hell/general body horror for this one. While we're tech sperging and reacting to that screencap to be honest [A]GPLv3 is autistic enough to annoy me too.

I didn't know about the distinction, so I looked it up and these Affero guys definitely seem extremely autistic or assholes (possibly both) and this seems like a license I would not want to deal with.

The GNU Affero General Public License is a modified version of the ordinary GNU GPL version 3. It has one added requirement: if you run a modified program on a server and let other users communicate with it there, your server must also allow them to download the source code corresponding to the modified version running there.

Fucking bonkers.

Then they go on a paragraphs-long rant about how SaaSS is literally an injustice and you're basically morally wrong for writing software like that.
 
Anyone know about ralphs gamer gate era with him claiming to be an OG gamer gater I think it’s important to add to wiki but I only know detailed Ralph lore after his ibs days.
 
I was just reading through one of the Terf dominated threads, someone had seen the picture of ralph on the front page and didn't know who he was. An up to date Wiki Article, particularly with a good intro would be a great intro to him.
 
A wiki is definitely a good idea, ever since ethan had his initial thread split up between 500 threads it's been hard to keep up with the rage pig.

I might stop by and contribute some shit about the earlier gunt incidents (Miami, Ralph's retarded actions right after Knoxville, being retarded enough to trust zoom, etc.)

Some stats since we moved to the "ralphapedia" domain.

- Things are a little slowed down since the initial announcement here but we still are getting a healthy amount of traffic.
- I made an article for Tuxlovesyou today.
- I've had COVID so I've been less engaged than I'd like but feeling a little better.
- DB problems persist but nothing that should impact the front-facing Wiki just a few odd error messages when you try to do certain things and problems setting up the WYSIWYG editor and some other stuff. This may take migrating the database from Postgres to MySQL, which is more of a pain in the ass than it sounds like. As a worse case the migration might have to be manual which would mean we lose article edit histories (probably.) If we're gonna do this it might be better to do sooner than later. Admin says it will probably not cause any significant downtime.
- Ralphapedia.com, .net, and .org all work and ethanralph.wiki still works but .org is the primary.

Any other questions/issues?

Registration is open but editing privs require approval. You can get it here or via email (gunt-wiki@gayo.ps)

Slight annoyance: it seems like CSS is getting screwy on the edit-page screen which is odd because I don't believe anything has changed. Everything is functional this is entirely a cosmetic problem. Reading/viewing pages is normal and you can still edit them and save them just the screen looks like plain text. Hopefully we will have a fix ASAP but to be honest MediaWiki is a bit of a pain and we are both new to it and what error messages it does give are incredibly nonintuitive.

In fixing this there might be very minor downtime but I wouldn't expect it to be more than a few minutes so if you encounter it just try back in a few. If you are editing pages though I might suggest saving a copy in Notepad before you hit submit just in case but I don't anticipate those problems. The public facing part should be fine.

Please let me know if you have any other issues or if you have different experiences editing stuff.

Apologies for the eyesore right now.

P.S. If anyone has actual experience running a MediaWiki instance and have any ideas please let me know.

Cosmetic issue seems resolved. If anyone has a problem, including things looking wonky, please let me know ASAP. A few things seemed to be going wrong but I am still a little puzzled about what happened as replicating it was difficult. If anyone has MediaWiki (admin) experience and are willing to help please give a shout. This is a learning experience for all involved.
