Some quirk in handling [] links vs. CamelCase links. Not a "mistake" per se, but a cosmetic defect. Let's see if I get around to fixing that...

Reverting pages is now forbidden, which should fix the "berserk" reverting. (Triggered by web spiders, perhaps?)

I also switched the theme from MacOS back to default, which works around the link markup weirdness and fixes some ugly "missing buttons".

I believe most of the reversions left the pages in roughly the current version (I know at least some have no difference to how they should be), but some of the pages got reverted back to old versions, for instance the WikiIssues page. How it is now is several edits ago (at least) because I specifically remembered editing my first point to make sense (having gone from a reply to being standalone) and I remember you moving them away from the Bugs header into another because they weren't actually bugs. I would set it back myself, but I have no idea how to find the right version.

Unfortunately I don't know, either. The RecentEdit history doesn't show those edits for some reason. Fortunately there weren't many edits since the Wiki update, so it doesn't hurt too bad to have lost them.

New problem ::) This one appears to be the server:

Quote:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4104 bytes) in /home/www/mega-tokyo/osfaq2/lib/WikiDB/backend/PearDB.php on line 1011


When trying to view edits from 30 days or more


Edit:
Tis working now I think

Edit2:
How did I type "view" as "few"? ::)

It can do so much more than the text adventures we managed to squeeze in 38k Basic RAM in the good old days? ;D

I'd be tempted to blame some combination of coincedental high traffic at the time and the huge list of edits it had to retrieve due to the spamming and crazy reverting.

On the "Some small kernels with source" page the "PM Kernels" link is linking to the page:

http://my.execpc.com/~~geezer/osd/code/

which contains an extra tilde. I would correct this, but the page is locked.

Just thought i'd point that out ;)

Are you sure the link itself is broken? An extra ~ is often used in these links because a single one on its own breaks the link, whereas ~~ tells the software "don't try to parse this, just leave a ~ in there".


Edit:
Checked, and the second one is definately unneeded.

I have never been able to login, or to "create" an account on the wiki, how do I do that? I tried doing as it says, just fill in my name with no password. I also tried using the forum password and also created a page named what i wanted my username to be, but I guess that I have missunderstood how it works.

@Solar: You changed back to that ugly theme becasue of 2-3 underlined links? ::)

there is no account creation on the wiki really. any 'wikiword' is classed as an account name.

Yep. I don't mind much about themes, and it was the quickest fix for the links. When I find a loophole in the time-space-continuum, I'll hack the other theme to display links correctly.
