ATLAS Wiki:Admin noticeboard

 The Admin noticeboard is one way through which users can notify Administrators of issues needing administrative attention. While users are welcome to directly contact specific administrators (especially if they are seen to be active), posting here can be an easier and quicker way of ensuring that at least one admin will notice an issue and respond to it promptly. Remember to sign (using four tildes: ) when posting an issue.

Before posting an issue here, please consider the following:
 * This page is for reporting wiki issues. Please post discussions |on the talk page.
 * Post only issues that require administrative action, i.e. blocking vandals, protecting pages, restoring deleted pages etc.
 * Do not post deletion requests here. Deletion requests should be made by adding  to the top of the target page, which will then automatically mark the page as a candidate for deletion.
 * Do not post issues regarding content disputes. Try making a request for comment instead.
 * Mediation requests between users should only be made once a resolution could not be reached between users.
 * For issues regarding the use of this wiki, please see our help center.

In case of vandalism, posting about it here is low priority. Revert it first, anyone can do so. If the vandal created a new page, tag it for deletion. Assume good faith and consider leaving a message on that user's talk page to explain the reason. Post here only if the user has made several disruptive edits and/or persists despite a warning. Always avoid a revert war with the vandal; it is far better to wait until an admin has a chance to intervene. If a user must be reported here, please use user, preferably as the topic subject/headline.

Overzealous "Gibberish" Rule
I tried to add a page listing all possible color codes for animal color regions and dye colors, but the wiki blocked the creation of the page, citing "gibberish". To avoid cluttering this page, I put the text I wanted to make into a pastebin:

https://pastebin.com/sBLnz6va

Let me know if you would like me to also include the text here. Also, please let me know if/when I can make this page, or if an admin makes it for me. I would like to send it to a few people already.

Thank you!


 * Sorry about that. I think it's the hex codes setting it off; I remember a problem with that in the past I could never quite fix. I don't have time to investigate and fix the filter right now, but I did add the page for you at Color codes. --Mr Pie 5 (talk) 19:59, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

Unable to add island resources
Trying to edit: https://atlas.gamepedia.com/Region_H5 and add in the animals, consumables and resources and get the gibberish error when adding the hyperlinks to "Blainrath Enclave" table
 * Hi, the filter registered all the HTML and CSS markup you added as gibberish, which is not the correct way to add islands anyways. Please take a look at those pages in "Edit source" mode; they use templates which add all the markup properly and just have a few fields for the editor to fill in. I can see that you have created some island pages using this template, so you must have figured out how to use it by now, but please keep those on the region pages; the individual islands aren't notable enough to have an entire page dedicated to one. --Mr Pie 5 (talk) 00:40, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

Unable to add information to H8 Islands
Hey there, whenever I try to add a resource or an animal to one of the charts, regardless of what I put in the summary, I get flagged with it being gibberish. Specifically trying to add Crude Oil to the Buchside Holm as well as Nectar to Cottlelem Penninsula and Dalwaki Ait. Any help here would be hot. THANKS! Don Peppa (talk) 12:12, 31 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi, the filter is a little aggressive towards some CSS, but as per the above issue, you should be adding that through the IslandInfo template, not raw HTML and CSS. Take a look at the page in source editing mode and you can simply copy-paste the template code blocks already there and change the info. Templating stuff like this not only avoids this issue and minimizes code one has to sift through to edit things, but it helps keep things standardized without being resistant to change, so please use the template. --Mr Pie 5 (talk) 21:02, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
