| − | : Down for me, too, Jon. Probably a crack team of IP-disrupting cabalists. ;-) Either that, or, did you notice that the Libyan convicted for Lockerbie may be released? Didn't Slim Virgin have something to do with his incarceration? Seriously, isn't there some connection? --[[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 09:18, 30 June 2007 (PDT)
| + | Hi Greg, |

| − | JA: I can still get the lo-rider model — http://wikipediareview.com/lofiversion/ — read only, but there have been no changes in that since the which-end hour. [[User:Jon Awbrey|Jon Awbrey]] 09:58, 30 June 2007 (PDT)
| + | Do you think there's any chance you'll be updating the math parser, whatever it is, any time soon? I'd like to keep MyWikiBiz as my main work wiki and I've been trying to fix all the problems with MathJax or whatever it is, but it just doesn't look doable anymore. Here's how one of my math sections looks on three different wikis: |

| − | ::Remember when AOL went to unlimited minutes for flat fee? The customers swamped the servers so bad, the outages led to front-page news. AOL's stock shot UP at that time, because analysts quickly (and correctly) saw that if AOL access led to front-page news, this Internet thing must be REALLY IMPORTANT to consumers. Of course, AOL sat on their laurels for too many years, and now they are a mere shell of their former self. But, anyway, the analogy may be for us Wikipedia Reviewers... what did we do these past few days, WITHOUT our favorite message board? --[[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 21:48, 1 July 2007 (PDT) | + | * Wikiversity |

| − | ==Google is not finding us==
| + | Aside from the overall readability issues, there's problems with underlining and failure to distinguish serif and sans serif characters that I use for a critical math distinction. |
| − | Something happened, I don't know what, it could be switching to the new metawiki platform, maybe something else but google is definitely not caching any of our new pages correctly. My only new client in a while is getting screwed because his page isn't being found. [http://72.14.209.104/search?source=ig&hl=en&q=cache%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.centiare.com%2FDirectory%3ALaw_Firm_of_James_Novak&btnG=Google+Search This link] pulls up the cached version of his page and gives an error message that was never on centiare before. "failed to derive URL prefix for timeline API codes" I think this message might be key to finding the culprit. Helping people create exposure is the only reason centiare really exists and right now it isn't doing that very well, at all. My fledgling business is at stake. What should we do?

| − | :I've noticed similar goings on, too, Garrett. Karl is away for a vacation this week, but I think he's back around July 9th. Let's question him then. Personally, I think something is going on with the server -- very slow for the past 10 days, and that would coincide with the 23,000 pages that Karl added with RSS feeds. Could be bogging things down so much that the Google bots are giving up after "time outs". --[[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 21:24, 1 July 2007 (PDT)

| − | ::Thanks for getting back with me. I assumed Karl was on vacation or something similar. My business has been in the toilet and the law firm of James Novak is pissed they no where to be found on google. I'm sure it will all get worked out after he gets back. But for now I'll just enjoy my endless summer sans work. Luckily centiare and working with Lande on wikipedia has netted me near the same as a crappy minimum wage job except a 4 hour work week instead of thirty :) [[User:Garrett|Garrett]] 08:29, 7 July 2007 (PDT)

| − | ==How To Create New Semantic Tags?==
| + | Regards, [[User:Jon Awbrey|Jon Awbrey]] ([[User talk:Jon Awbrey|talk]]) 22:00, 4 October 2017 (UTC) |
| | | | |
| − | JA: I forgot how to make new semantic tags. I need to make one called "Poem Of" for a page that has a single poem and one called "Poetry Of" for a page that has a small collection of poems. Or maybe I just asked Karl last time? [[User:Jon Awbrey|Jon Awbrey]] 11:18, 7 July 2007 (PDT)
| + | :Frankly, there is zero chance that I would personally update the math parser, because I'm not technically inclined. The last time we had a major overhaul to the platform was in 2014. That took an outside contractor to execute, and the cost was around $900. I am just guessing that a math parser update would potentially set off a domino effect of requiring an update to the Mediawiki root platform, and thus I could be "in" for another $1,000-ish cost. Your most popular page, '''Logical graph''', got 62 hits from around the globe in the past month. For 2 hits a day, I really can't justify the potential budget outlay. Is there any way you would commit to splitting the cost and working with me to find an appropriate contractor? - [[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] ([[User talk:MyWikiBiz|talk]]) 16:50, 5 October 2017 (UTC) |
| | | | |
| − | : You can make 'em just like any of the other ones were made -- by creating the text label in a page, then filling out the linked-to page from the RDF table at the bottom of the page. The only thing is that Karl is asking people to "go through him" first, so that he/we can advise on better solutions that may already be in place. Let me make a general apology for being so out of the loop for the past week ... and unfortunately, it's going to continue for a couple of weeks. Jon, you ARE our Centiare Prize winner, though, so we'll be passing the cup here and getting a check to you before the end of the month. --[[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 19:58, 8 July 2007 (PDT)
| + | == Wikipediocracy == |
| | | | |
| − | JA: Yeah, I went ahead and followed the paradigm that I saw for ''Paper Name'', ''Paper Of'', etc., but I can't figure out why the ''[[Attribute:Poetry Name]]'' that I created still reports 0 items under it. Did I do something wrong, or does it take the database that long to refresh? [[User:Jon Awbrey|Jon Awbrey]] 20:56, 8 July 2007 (PDT)

| | | | |
| − | : Jon, it's showing up as a Relation, not an Attribute. I hope that helps. I'm not going to have time to troubleshoot this any more this week. --[[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 22:09, 8 July 2007 (PDT) | + | :Hey bro what's hangin?

| − | | |
| − | JA: It's okay now. It seems to have gotten picked up on my last edit of the page being tagged. It may have had to do with the order in which I created content pages and attribute-relation pages. Gracias, [[User:Jon Awbrey|Jon Awbrey]] 08:08, 9 July 2007 (PDT)

As far as I know, the Wikipediots who patched in "nofollow" did literally that -- they patched on "nofollow" into the original Mediawiki code. We're working with the more original form of Mediawiki (the way it was meant to be, cooperating with our web brethren to augment page rank), plus the Semantic Mediawiki extension on top of that, for all your "Attribute/Category/Relation" fun. --[[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 16:01, 9 August 2007 (PDT)

| − | Only with the hanging indents working like they should. Is there a wiki way to do this, short of using tables, or do I have to use all that HTML stuff with "ul" and "il" or whatever, and if the latter, do you know where there's a readable ref? Gracias, [[User:Jon Awbrey|Jon Awbrey]] 10:30, 1 September 2007 (PDT)
| |
| − | :Jon, it makes me laugh that you (master of math symbols and such) would be asking me this! I don't know of any "outliner" format tool for Mediawiki. In fact, my understanding is that Wikipediots just do it this way:

| − | : Presuming the "progress" is that if we could just get Wikipedia to stop Google from indexing User pages, your very own personally created and protected page on Centiare would be your #1 Google search result for your name.

We're going to see what we can do on our lonesome to (first) back up the site, then (second) change templates and logo and footers, all without harming any of the content on site currently. I presume that there's a certain small chance that we really muck up things (a la Somey) and we lose the site's post-December 9th content, and have to restore the backed-up version. That's the risk we're all taking until our crack squad of wiki-tinkerers is comfortable running the site. So, my suggestion is to edit at your liberty, but don't go '''too''' crazy with a lot of stuff until we sound the all-clear. — [[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 20:59, 9 December 2007 (PST)

| − | | |
| − | Hello. Joined after discussing with Greg at WR. As you see from my user page I'm still struggling with the 'ask' queries. Well, not struggling much but my main interest is building an academic resource which would allow searching for philosophers (or any other historical figure) by the period they were flourishing in. My struggle is with the ISO date format which is of course a string, but all date searches involve ordering of some sort, so how do you convert date strings into orderable units? Well I can see the ISO format used can be sorted, but then for medieval philosophers the best we usually have is year of birth. So to I create a pretend date format 1265-00-00 which is orderable, or just 1265 (which it seems to understand). Any help appreciated. [[User:Ockham|Ockham]] 05:21, 28 January 2008 (PST)
| |
| − | : Update: got it to work. Joy [[User:Ockham|Ockham]] 05:33, 28 January 2008 (PST)
| |
| − | | |
| − | [UPDATE] Yes I think this is going to be v exciting. The idea of using rankings for biographical subjects (so that one can compare relative rankings of topics in standard reference sources for notability and also, with probably amusing results, comparing with the Wikipedia ranking, e.g. by in k, or in equivalent pages of A4) is powerful. No one has ever done this.
| |
| − | | |
| − | However I am having some trouble getting the attribute thing to work. I have defined the attribute correctly I think, here [[Attribute:Ccmp Pages]]. One page, namely [[Thomas Aquinas]] has the attribute embedded as <nowiki> | ccmp_pages = [[Ccmp Pages:= 17]] </nowiki>, but the system doesn't seem to recognise it. If someone could show me how to do this I could beef up the help pages a little. [[User:Ockham|Ockham]] 08:16, 28 January 2008 (PST)
| |
| − | | |
| − | :We never were able to figure out why, but it seemed to us that Attributes sometimes take a few minutes, or even a few hours for the actual Semantic Mediawiki to "realize" that they've been applied here or there. It might have something to do with the user's own web cache, too. I am seeing that [[Thomas Aquinas]] is now showing his Ccmp Pages to the world. Hopefully, you're successfully seeing the same thing now, too. - [[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 08:29, 28 January 2008 (PST)
| |
| − | | |
| − | :: That wasn't the problem. The problem was the information template didn't work, so had to add a subsetion of the article on 'notability'. It really would be very amusing to compare Wikipedia and the Cambridge Companion, and perhaps the Oxford Companion using these scores. I've got a week or to spare before starting any serious paid employment so will update all 13th century philosophers and could provide a nice little showcase for MWB is you are interested. [[User:Ockham|Ockham]] 08:34, 28 January 2008 (PST)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Welcome, Ockham! If the Ccmp Pages are going to be used for rank sorting, I would recommend defining a set number of digits and preceding lower values with zeroes so that 004 would sort lower than 017. --[[User:OmniMediaGroup|OmniMediaGroup]] 08:41, 28 January 2008 (PST)
| |
| − | | |
| − | : Thanks. Although it ''does'' appear to sort when you query ''only'' those philosophers who have ccmp (i.e. use the + option) Since every philosopher will by definition have a rating (0 if they are not mentioned at all) probably doesn't make sense to use set number of digits (unless you recommend otherwise). [[User:Ockham|Ockham]] 08:59, 28 January 2008 (PST)
| |
| − | :: [update] yes, once I populate all the ccmp values it updates correctly. Obviously having null values makes it default to string sort or something like that. [[User:Ockham|Ockham]] 09:06, 28 January 2008 (PST)

| − | Hi Gregory, why can't I edit this page [http://mywikibiz.com/Directory:Michael%27s_House] anymore? I mean the person who edited it after me will very likely not be able to add info to it. That is really strange ... Ciao. --[[User:SabineCretella|SabineCretella]] 23:28, 5 March 2008 (PST)

| − | :Please try again and let me know if you're able to access again. We have a tricky algorithm for assigning access rights to Directory pages, and "User:Snerfling" was the former owner of this database. On the old "Centiare" site, his admin account wouldn't have blocked you out from editing, but with the transfer to a new site and re-aligning our admin rights, it caused a block. Unintentional, believe me. I'll post this to your Talk page, too. As Squeaker says, Happy editing! -- [[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 20:09, 6 March 2008 (PST)

| − | I notice that this directory-type site http://www.123explore.com/ has a lot of dead links to deleted Wikipedia pages. I registered as an editor and started adding live links to Mywikibiz and PlanetMath replacements, but I don't know what their reviewers will do with them yet.
