Um...

Kind of confused as to what's going on here.(ಠ_ೃ) Bully! 14:24, 7 November 2010 (EST)

Let me hear those questions. --Porplemontage 14:29, 7 November 2010 (EST)
  1. Can this be moved to khwiki.net, the site chosen in the forums?
  2. What is the hosting situation (bills, etc.)?
  3. Can we get Monaco, Oasis, and possibly Quartz installed here?
  4. Will you remove your "admin and bureaucrat" user rights once the move is complete?
  5. Can the current bureaucrats for the khwiki (Bluerfn and BebopKate) be given developer status, if that's necessary to install extensions?
  6. Could the syncing be done faster, and more up to date, if we got a full database dump from wikia? We're going to need to overwrite most of the current pages in the end, to get back to where we are now.

  1. It could be, but if the Wikia site will be continue to be called "Kingdom Hearts Wiki" it would be easier to build the name Kingdom Hearts Database than compete with the same name. Similar to the WoWWiki, Wowpedia situation.
  2. Hosting/bills are covered.
  3. A skin similar to Monaco may be installed eventually, but we're looking at Monobook for a while.
  4. No. I'm not going to interfere with the other admins but I need the rights.
  5. No, I'll manage the extensions.
  6. This is the complete Wikia dump from Oct 29. Newer dumps can be added on top of it. --Porplemontage 17:06, 10 November 2010 (EST)
  1. Extension-wise, we'd like to be able to install any extensions the community agrees to. If you are going to maintain the servers, can you agree to that?
  2. We would like to know if it would be possible to host other wikis on these servers. Please read this for more details.

Thanks!(ಠ_ೃ) Bully! 20:49, 10 November 2010 (EST)

As long as the extension is secure and compatible with our setup, I shouldn't have a problem with it, but I honestly can't make any guarantees. You can check Special:Version for the list of current extensions; if any come to mind as missing we can talk about those now. Regarding other wikis--I deal with these one at a time. I'm not going to start up a bunch of new wikis for the network, but if a wiki community is frustrated and wants to move, I may be able to accommodate them. --Porplemontage 21:27, 10 November 2010 (EST)
