YouTube template

Hello, just wanted to let you know that you don't need <center> tags for YouTube template. The video will be automatically centered when you use the template. Thanks Logohub (talk) 16:53, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up on that! I'll make sure to remember that for future edits. HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 14:30, 4 May 2021 (UTC)Reply[reply]

You forget to block a sockpuppet user

HibiscusCrown20, I think you forget to block a another sockpuppet user called ITVFanatic. I think you should block him now in my response. Prodigy012 (talk) 17:49, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Blocked. Thanks for informing me about this account! HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 17:52, 16 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Please don't block out! Maggie the Spider (talk) 00:31, 19 October 2022 (UTC)

A big thanks

Shoutout to you for clearing up the CLG Wiki trash (deleting stuff, blocking certain users, etc. and you get the point), even while not being an admin. TVB (talk) 23:25, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

Hey, sorry this is late, but thanks so much for your kind words! I'm most delighted to have helped this wiki out even before becoming an admin! :D HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 21:53, 23 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Edit Reversion

I know you have already manually reverted the edits on the 7th archive of the User Reports page, but there are some edits on the 8th archive that need to be reverted as well. This is obviously because users are not allowed to edit archives. Jecken (talk) 15:28, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

It looks like Camenati took care of it. Jecken (talk) 18:25, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

Do you want to delete unused files pls?

https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/wiki/File:Disney_Channel_(2008).png Now? Qamichelemir59 (talk) 17:01, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

Users That Should Possibly Be Blocked

There are two users whom I think should possibly be blocked. The first user is Qamichelemir59. His section of the User Reports page is a good example of why they should possibly be blocked. Additionally, they have a potential sockpuppet account. The second user is 09limbua. While he is blocked from editing and creating new accounts, he is not blocked on his talk page. You can clearly see why he shouldn't be able to edit his own talk page. Jecken (talk) 16:39, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Both taken care of. Thanks for pointing both of these out! HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 17:40, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
HibiscusCrown20, I know you're not an admin on Company Bumpers Wiki, but Qamichelemir59 should be blocked there, too. Buzzfan120 (talk) 02:38, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for blocking Sam

I just wanted to wish you a big thank you for temp blocking Sambarker04 - to be honest; I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with his edits.
All I was just trying to do was try to find a compromise between his speculations and the truly useful info he managed to find. I really wanted to work with him on that, but he refused to cooperate even an inch with me after a while.
While I know he meant well with his initial edits, he seemed to have at me once negotiations broke down.

P.S. When he comes back to appeal his edits - for my side of story, just know I was trying to give him as much leeway as I could. I'll also apologize for my aggressive edit summaries at the start of the disputes - I was hastily trying to remove things, and didn't think it through fully. Solarstrike (talk) 06:31, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

You're very welcome! I completely understand, and as for the edit summaries, no worries, you are forgiven. Just remember to keep any posted edit summaries civil even if the user in question is in violation of any of our rules and policies. 👍 HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 15:35, 7 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Who are you??

I missed the drama

Until 10 minutes ago, I didn't know something scandalous happened here. Well, now I know. CrazySpruiker2001 (talk) 12:41, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

Discord server enquiry

Half an hour ago, I was on the new server, and now I got kicked out again. Why? CrazySpruiker2001 (talk) 15:08, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi, sorry I'm late with this reply, but you were banned on the new server since the server staff decided that users who were banned on the old server would also be banned on the new one. Sorry. :/ HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 02:56, 22 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I have the same issue. What gives? - User:Sierra-D421

Hi, you have since been unbanned from the new server. HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 18:39, 22 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

A question regarding extensions

I previously asked this comment regarding extensions to another admin, but got no response within a day. I thought I would ask you about this.

Anyways, I am planning to give my userpage table a major overhaul by making it filterable, but may need two MediaWiki extensions in order for this to workː FilterableTables and BlueSpiceFoundation. Considering you are an admin, is it possible to request extensions on this site? Camenati (talk) 16:36, 24 September 2022 (UTC)

For some reason I'm not able to find the manage extensions page (at least easily) on my end, but I do see from the Extensions page on Meta that Miraheze doesn't include those extensions by default, so I have created a Phabricator task (T9769) requesting these extensions if possible! HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 17:39, 24 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Got a reply back, unfortunately both extensions have been declined, as BlueSpice apparently modified MediaWiki too much and is also apparently a security risk according to the Meta page on Extensions while FilterableTables was also declined due to its dependency on BlueSpice. Sorry. :( HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 17:41, 24 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Archiving important discussions

Talk:Main Page is getting very long. I think we need to put the completed RFCs about the 2022 reforms into dedicated easy-to-find pages, with something like AVID:2022 Reforms as the main page. --Pingu (talk) 18:47, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I went ahead and archived the topics made prior to the reform, but I'll talk with the staff and other peeps on the Discord first before archiving the completed RfCs if that's okay. HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 00:40, 1 October 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Update regarding the above: I've also archived the closed RfCs! The dedicated pages idea is also a great one, too! HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 19:20, 1 October 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Discord Issues

For some reason, I can't seem to join the AVID Discord Server. Can you figure out why I can't join? / 18:40, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi, it was decided among the Discord staff of the AVID server that users who were banned on the old CLG Discord server, which has since been rebranded to ENunn's personal server, would also be banned from the new server. Sorry. :( HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 18:57, 1 October 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
And why was I banned? My behavior on Discord has improved. / 21:14, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

09limbua Is Blocked Forever!

09limbua Says Help! Unblock Please? 09HelpBots (talk) 15:25, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

About That new Blank page rule.

I don't really like it because I think it's destroying the wiki, and It's nearly blocking some important users on this wiki. Poocian (talk) 16:54, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

yeah, like what if the user is busy doing something more important instead. It's like those rule on some online games that if you leave when you are playing a match, you will lose your point in the game or just block you from playing the mode that you've just played. Thesquidgeeks (talk) 12:41, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
The "No Blank Pages" rule has been on the wiki for a while and exists because pages that are created blank look lazy and thus detract from the quality of the wiki. I appreciate your concern regarding its enforcement, though, and I'll consider finding a new strategy to handle the issue. HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 13:50, 9 October 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I accept that. Thesquidgeeks (talk) 14:11, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for Understanding. Poocian (talk) 15:28, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

Removing words

Shakla the new user has removing some words thinking that it's redundant. I had to reverted all articles but Shakla keep on doing this. I added him warning but he keeps on doing this. That's why I'm asking you to block him. Blue2000 (talk) 12:31, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Question.

Is it okay if I make a page dedicated to the AVID site itself? Poocian (talk) 17:16, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

Don't let it block out! Maggie the Spider (talk) 00:32, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
Late, but I'd probably keep it confined to a user page. Idk if adding a mainspace page on ourselves is allowed. HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 15:55, 19 October 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

How do you get userboxes on your page?

I wanted to have user boxes on my page but I don't know how to put them on. Do you know what to do? CharlieFiddlesticks (talk) 15:09, 19 October 2022 (UTC)

We do have a template and category for Userboxes (Template:Userbox and), though I don't really know how to make my own. You could probably study and tinker with the source editor data of the userbox templates to learn how they work, but don't save any edits to the existing templates, please. (Not yelling, just bolding that to emphasize the request) You can use Preview mode to see how the edits change the templates. HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 16:02, 19 October 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
