== Note on potential site closure ==

== New draft proposal concerning Translation Moderator  ==
  
As you guys might have heard, Chinese Moegirlpedia users are debating over a new Term of Use. As a part of the debate, this English Moegirlpedia (along with the Japanese site) may de closed and its data deleted.
+
All editors, please be notified a new proposal has been submitted at [[Talk:Discussion_board/Translation_moderator]], according to regulations discussions about to take place.

To be fair, English Moegirlpedia might not be touched at all -- it has little influence, and the new Term of Use might not have such a big impact on it. The sad reality is, this site might be spared simply by being forgotten. But for those of us that cares deeply about our creations, this risk can be too great.

Yes, I aborted this project. If we want any such regulations, I suggest that we just keep it a private agreement between us editors. Those people will never give us the right to make our own conventions. --<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:11pt">[[U:Asakura_Nemu|<img src="https://img.moegirl.org.cn/common/avatars/470354/128.png?ver=1695197566" style="width: 2em;border-radius: 50%;box-shadow: 1px 1px 2px 0px rgba(11, 45, 14, 0.45);"/>Nochelux Iquinawir Illumina]]</span><span style="color:#33ffcc;font-family:consolas;font-size:8pt"> the Unexperienced Wikier</span> ([[User_talk:Asakura_Nemu|Criticize]] · Work on [[enmoe:Mainpage|EN Moegirlpedia]]) 14:04, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

== English Moegirlpedia Backup Plan ==

== Category page deletion (2) ==
  
Hello, fellow editors.
+
Can you delete this page, please? I'm reorganizing the categories within "Music".
  
As we all know, the English version of moegirlpedia may face site closure.
+
[[:Category:Songs]] [[User:LiaMinina|LiaMinina]] ([[User talk:LiaMinina|talk]]) 16:34, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
  
As an attempt to preserve all articles on it, I have created a github repository: [https://github.com/Ravenclaw-OIer/enmoegirl-backup].

:Why? Songs are diffrent from Music.——[[User:KingChan|KingChan]] / Fan of [[XY Production]] 06:38, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
  
This repository will act as a backup for the English version, and if the site do close, we will have a chance to, say, build another one on another server, or simply use github as the main site.

== Petition for archiving threads ==
+
== About boilerplates ==
  
As they are too old to do any good, I petition for archiving all threads on this page that have no new messages after 1 January 2020; if this petition pass, this thread should be archived too.
+
Hello. Is it possible to enable boilerplates in EnMGP? That way, it would be easier to create articles. [[User:LiaMinina|LiaMinina]] ([[User talk:LiaMinina|talk]]) 20:36, 23 September 2024 (UTC)

As we have no clear policy on archiving nor active patrols or SysOps, I figure that an unanimous support from active editors can do the trick.

I hope for unanimous consensus from the current community.

== Should we prevent non-confirmed users from adding any external links? ==
 
 
 
It appears that most spam accounts are one-time use accounts that add auto-generated "bio" and a link to whatever external site they are spamming about to their user page; occasionally they create new pages that is just word vomit and (again) link to external site.
 
 
 
Preventing non-confirmed users from adding any external links should curtail these spams.
 
 
 
{{hide|Title=中文|Text=
 
看起来,大部分spam账户都只用一次;它们只在自己的用户页张贴一段自动生成的“自我介绍”和一个spam链接。偶尔它们会创建新页面;内容通常是一堆无太多意义的字词和(同样地)外部链接。
 
 
 
阻止非确认用户添加任何外部链接应该可以减少这类spam账户的破坏。

== About "Surname-Given Name" or "Given Name-Surname" ==
 
As the title, Japanese characters like Misaka Mikoto are written as [[Mikoto Misaka]] in MGP, and that's a little wierd.
 
 
 
So shall we discuss about it?
 
 
 
Some possible ways (Using [[Hatsune Miku]] as example):
 
#Hatsune Miku
 
#Miku Hatsune
 
#HATSUNE Miku
 
#HATSUNE MIKU

:{{ping|红石小蝈}} I personally Prefer "Familyname Givenname" for Japanese names (follow convention of the original language). Some Japanese characters use "Givenname Familyname" to follow English naming traditions; I think we can make them redirects, save for the rare circumstance that you have the equivalent of "White Steven" and "Steven White" both existing. I believe no one make name all caps unless they came all caps.

== Is there something wrong? ==
 
 
 
{{re|玄微子}}
 
 
 
Is there something wrong with Moegirlpedia?
 
 
 
I have not been able to access all the pages (including the Mainpage) of the Chinese encyclopedia since this morning.
 
 
 
At present, I can only open the Moegirlsaikou Foundation official website, English Moegirlpedia and Japanese Moegirlpedia.
 
 
 
I opened the review elements, the findings suggest that such a mistake "Mainpage: 1 Failed to load the resource: the server responded with a status of 503 ()". It looks like the server is overloaded .
 
 
 
I tried to restart my computer, but it didn't work to change my browser, so I'm here to ask for your help.
 
 
 
(my English is not very good, I used the machine translation on the Internet......)
 
 
 
I hope Moegirlpedia still in operation...

== Request to Merge [[Template:Quoted from other wikis]] and [[Template:FromOther]] ==
 
 
 
I created [[Template:Quoted from other wikis]] yesterday, copying from the Chinese Moegirlpedia. However I have just found out about [[Template:FromOther]] today. Comparing the content of both templates I realised that there are some slight differences, not only in the wording but also in the content. I'm not sure which one to keep, so I'm posting here to see what everybody thinks about this.-- <img src="https://commons.moegirl.org/extensions/Avatar/avatar.php?user=Leranjun" style="width:{{#if:2.5em|2.5em|80px}};height:auto;border:0.1em solid white;border-radius:50%;box-shadow:0px 0px 0.5em gray;" />

:{{ping|Leranjun}} Notice that we already had [[Template:From_other_wiki]]. I will recommend merging those two since their parameters are the same (you can even move the document page, like, right now: your doc is much better than the older one); but I will very much like to see migration to [[Template:FromOther]] eventually. There is still transclusion; can you fix those? --<span style="font-family:'Source Pro',serif;font-weight:900;">COVID be gone! </span>[[User:One-Six|<span style="font-size:110%;font-weight:bold;">One-Six</span>]] <span style="color:#888; font-size:70%;font-style:italic;">A.K.A."公的驱逐舰"</span><span style="font-size:90%;">&#32;[[User_talk:One-Six|Talk]]·[[Special:Contributions/One-Six|Recent Edits]]</span> 17:05, 15 May 2020 (CDT)
 
::{{ping|One-Six}} Thanks for the notice. I have already merged the [[Template:From other wiki]] and [[Template:Quoted from other wikis]].

== Signature time zone was set to UTC now due to a bug. ==
 
 
 
Hi girls and guys,
 
 
 
we found a bug that preventing timezone settings in user Special:Preferences to take effect. Therefore all users' signature time become CDT as localtimezone were set to US central time before. We now change that settings to UTC0. We are not sure why user timezone settings were not taking effect, and trying to fix that.

New draft proposal concerning Translation Moderator

All editors, please be notified a new proposal has been submitted at Talk:Discussion_board/Translation_moderator, according to regulations discussions about to take place. --Nochelux Iquinawir Illumina the Unexperienced Wikier (Criticize · Work on EN Moegirlpedia) 20:10, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I aborted this project. If we want any such regulations, I suggest that we just keep it a private agreement between us editors. Those people will never give us the right to make our own conventions. --Nochelux Iquinawir Illumina the Unexperienced Wikier (Criticize · Work on EN Moegirlpedia) 14:04, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

Template problem

This template doesn't display well in this page. What happened? LiaMinina (talk) 16:50, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

The template lost a |} at the end and its new alignment is from T:Characterinfo. You may need a refreshing edit for its new look. --6116G (talk) 07:38, 7 September 2024 (UTC)
@6116G What do you mean by "refreshing edit"? LiaMinina (talk) 20:03, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
After I fixed the template it didn't show its new alignment on pages using it unless an edit is made. But if you don't meet the problem you can just ignore that term. --6116G (talk) 09:49, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

About boilerplates

Hello. Is it possible to enable boilerplates in EnMGP? That way, it would be easier to create articles. LiaMinina (talk) 20:36, 23 September 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your remind by mail, but that tool is beyond my knowledge so I've no idea. --6116G (talk) 05:59, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

	local prefix = mw.text.trim(args[1] or '')
	local numname = mw.text.trim(args[2] or '')
	local valname = mw.text.trim(args[3] or '')
	local cond = mw.text.decode(mw.text.unstripNoWiki(mw.text.trim(args.cond or '')))
	local text = mw.text.decode(mw.text.unstripNoWiki(mw.text.trim(args[4] or '')))
	if not parent or numname == '' or valname == '' or text == '' then return '' end

	local expr = '^' .. mw.ustring.gsub(prefix, '([-+*?%%])', '%%%1') .. '(%d+)$'
	local keys = {}
	local output = {}
	for key, _ in pairs(parent.args) do
		local num = mw.ustring.match(key, expr)
		if num then
			table.insert(keys, tonumber(num))
		end
	end
	table.sort(keys)
	for _, idx in ipairs(keys) do
		parent:callParserFunction('#vardefine', numname, idx)
		parent:callParserFunction('#vardefine', valname, parent.args[prefix .. idx])
		if cond == '' or parent:preprocess(cond) ~= '' then
