Could we have a dedicated page to that?

NYCDOT [ Talk Page | Contributions | Directory ] 20:43, 4 May 2019 (UTC)20:42, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

Known bugs is for the php bugs (mw bugs). This is for the server fault (connection problems).

Did you not get notified by ken's siggy warner?
 12944qwerty  Talk  Contribs  Scratch  21:39, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

Known Bugs is for bugs that are consistently reproducible (actual bugs); this is for faults that occur, sometimes randomly, that are not reproducible or only happen once (glitches).
kenny2scratch  Talk  Contribs  Directory  04:22, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

There are kinda a lot of faults now, I believe we should create another page for it.

 Luvexina  Talk  Contribs  On Scratch  16:08, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

I mean, we could always just add /Server_Faults as the path and switch this there. It wouldn't be that big of a hassle, you can just copy and paste it. And there are more and more coming anyways, so it's not oing to be too long before it gets very long.
Nambaseking01 (talk | contribs) 10:29, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

This is so long that it's now a hassle for scrolling through CP. I think we should definitely create another page for it; maybe link to it from the CP?
 Luvexina  Talk  Contribs  On Scratch 

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘I agree with VFDan. We could also just collapse it, although that would not stop it from making the CP loading time longer.

Welcome templates

 Done

A lot of people have their own "welcome" templates that they post on new users' talk pages. This is a great idea, because new users can get to know new people and, of course, feel welcomed. However, the welcoming effect starts diminishing when things like this happen:

10 different people jumping on the new user is too much - it's not welcoming, it's downright scary! How would you feel if you created an account somewhere and you were confronted with a wall of "welcome"s?

To counteract this, I don't propose forbidding welcomes entirely; what I instead think should be the case is that we have a limit on how many welcome messages can be on a talk page - probably around 4-5 at the most. That does mean it turns into a race as to who can get their message on first, but that can't be helped - if you want to get your message in, ya gotta be active at the right time.

I don't think there's much room for debate on the necessity of the limit, but what can be bargained is the limit itself - how many topics do you think is too many?
kenny2scratch  Talk  Contribs  Directory  07:59, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

I think that a limit of 4-5 is a great idea I still remember when I started the messages really confused me. Also, I'd say that if you post a welcome message, it should have a variation of the simple title "Welcome!". I tried to make mine a bit different. I like the "All aboard!" one. Maybe we could say if there are more than eight messages already, really don't put one, but if there are 4-5 try not to put your template, but a personal message is okay.
 EIephant_Lover  Talk  Contributions  Subpages  21:06, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

I see this level of enthusiasm as very exciting. While it may be a little intimidating, I look at it more as a great way to integrate yourself with the community immediately and meeting many of the people who you will be working with side-by-side. Nonetheless, I would love to see more data on this and interview some people on their experiences regarding this to see if it does have a negative impact.
Makethebrainhappy (talk | contribs) 00:35, 10 May 2019 (UTC)

As we are bargaining for this, I was just wondering what we'll be doing now. Should we be limiting welcomes now? Or do we continue welcoming as much as we can ?
 12944qwerty  Talk  Contribs  Scratch  13:37, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

While the rule is still merely proposed, it is not yet a rule. Welcomes are unlimited until this is put in force.

smileycreations15 (talk | contribs) 11:00, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

I was just scrolling through the CP, and this caught my eye. Great idea, I definitely think this needs to be considered. I understand that people are just trying to be kind by sending the welcome messages, but it would almost be like a horror film for the person who owns the account. I think 4-5 welcome templates are enough, but I think there needs to be a break between even those. Getting 4-5 welcomes in a couple of seconds is also not the best of ideas.
Nambaseking01 (talk | contribs) 17:55, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

We should ask new users for their opinion on this right after they get the welcomes.
TenType (talk | contribs) 00:06, 30 November 2019 (UTC)

I think 4-5 is a good limit. I personally liked getting welcomes, but I only got 3 of them.
Groko13 (talk | contribs) 14:49, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

I'm a fairly new user, and I got 4 welcomes. It seemed fine for me, so I agree that 4-5 sounds like a good limit.
Ravenclaw900 (talk | contribs) 01:23, 19 January 2020 (UTC)

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘How about one or two users post a template, or we just use the automatic one at the top, and then people below can put encouraging words (not large templates) followed by a sig? This would not be too much for the user, but still shows lots of people are there to support them!
 Dominic305  Talk  Contribs (1,791)  Scratch  Directory  15:12, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Maybe we can create a welcome template, and a bot automatically adds it for every new user. Any user edit it (just like an article). Maybe there could be in it for all the users that contributed.

 VFDan  Talk  Contribs  On Scratch  19:21, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Please fix your signature!

No, the point of each user having their own welcome template is for them to be specific to the user welcoming - a different message for each one. If they just wanted to add their name to a stock welcome they could reply to the {{welcome}} message added by default. However, 10 users posting personalized welcomes is a lot of different welcomes to read - which is why it needs limiting.

Seems like 4-5 is the limit we've agreed on; for the sake of looseness, the limit is now 5 welcome messages at most on any new user's talk page (not including the {{welcome}} message; does not apply to users created before this decision).

@Nambaseking01: Limiting the rate of welcomes is a separate topic that should be proposed separately.

This topic is now  Done

I think that we should make a template for credit like this:

Apple502j Talk/Activities 2,243edit 01:05, 10 September 2019 (UTC)

What would you use this for, and why? The wiki is a collaboration and we all own a part of it. No one owns a article unless they created it on there userspace where they can so whatever they want with it.
ajsya  Profile | Talk | Contribs  01:13, 10 September 2019 (UTC)

Scratch-Coding (talk | contribs) 17:44, 10 September 2019 (UTC)

You can use it on your userspace but I don't think it's necessary. Btw: What did you do to your signature? It's broken.
ajsya  Profile | Talk | Contribs  20:49, 10 September 2019 (UTC)

Moving Plural page titles to singular

 Done On the wiki, there are many page titles like "Blocks" and "Numbers". This makes it confusing to users and editors, as well as links. "[[Block]]s makes a link to singular that appears plural, but there is no equivalent for singular-appearing plural-leading links.

This is a big change in the Wiki, so further discussion will be needed to manage the moves.
CrazyBoy826 | Talk | 8,242 edits | Scratch 00:07, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Could we start a Scratch Wiki Project? I  definitely think we should keep the pages consistently singular.
Groko13 (talk | contribs) 02:05, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

Singular page titles would seem strange, since the plural describes a general thing, there is not only one. Also, I fixed a spelling mistake.
-unsigned comment by Congyingzhou (talk | contribs)

Many page titles cannot be made into plural form. Having both plural and singular forms is confusing and creates other problems. Singular page titles are also easier to work with, as I said in my first post. Also, remember to not change other users' posts without permission.

Should I put {{move}} on the plural pages?
CrazyBoy826 | Talk | 8,242 edits | Scratch 00:29, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

I'll put the template on as soon as possible (on the bottom)
CrazyBoy826 | Talk | 8,242 edits | Scratch 03:44, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

Next time, don't add {{move}} to all of them; either move them all right away or wait. It makes a bunch of edits in Recent Changes which will all need to be undone when the final decision is decided.
TenType (talk | contribs) 04:02, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

So should we move them or not, and how will we do it? We will also need to fix many links and redirects.
CrazyBoy826 | Talk | 8,242 edits | Scratch 00:05, 5 February 2020 (UTC)

Or should we just mark the pages and get a bot to move the, fix all the redirects and links, and change any other issues?

IWB Interwiki Check

Hello everyone. It's been awhile since IWB has scanned the wikis for interwikis to add, and now is probably a good time to do that!

Below you'll find a list of proposed edits from the bot. It would be helpful if a few people could look at some proposed edits and double check them for errors:

User:InterwikiBot/Proposed_Edits

Several issues have already been discovered:

• Not properly handling empty interwikis, ex en:, see the ja homepage
• test -> tw
• The bot is proposing adding interwikis to other pages when they already have an interwiki for that language
• Help:Namespaces has a flat out wrong interwiki suggestion

This might take another round or two to remove perviously undiscovered bugs, but with the wikis growing more complex, it's important to get them now. Thank you

Updating Translators page

The Scratch Team is no longer actively maintaining the translators page https://en.scratch-wiki.info/wiki/Translators

I'd like to remove the Scratch Team only badge and allow folks from the translation community to update the page. Ideally there would be just one or two people per language that would keep things up to date for their language.

Would there be a different process for translators to join as a wiki editor? Are there different suggestions for having the translators page managed by the community?

Thanks, --Chris
-unsigned comment by Chrisg (talk | contribs)

Ok! I'll remove the banner at the top of the page for you. As for the translation community updating the page, we can not allow a different application processes for translators joining the wiki, though they are welcome to follow the current application processes and join the wiki that way. Also if they chose not to join they can always leave a post on the Community Portal in the forums with what should be updated and one of our editors will happily make the change. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do.

How will you let all the translators know they can use the Scratch CP, or join the Wiki for editing the page?
Nambaseking01 (talk | contribs) 15:41, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

The translators have internal commmunication mechanisms including email blasts via transifex or messages in slack. I believe that Chris can easily relay the message to the translators if necessary.  Done

Turbo Mode

 Done

This article is very outdated, I believe we should create an article on Turbo Mode itself.

 Luvexina  Talk  Contribs  On Scratch  22:16, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

I agree - there is an article about Detecting Turbo Mode, but there doesn't seem to be one about Turbo Mode, as Turbo Mode just redirects to that article.
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 17:15, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

The problem seems to be fixed as there is now a template saying it is from a historical perspective.
OurPrincess (talk | contribs) 18:06, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

There is - however, I don't believe that is the problem here. I think the problem VFDan is referring to is that there is not an article about Turbo Mode.
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 18:11, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

That is what I am referring to; I believe we should create an article about Scratch 3.0's Turbo Mode

 Luvexina  Talk  Contribs  On Scratch  00:19, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

You could create an article entitled "Turbo Mode (3.0)" and redirect Turbo Mode to that page instead of to the historical page.
Makethebrainhappy (talk | contribs) 13:30, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

Created the page, and changed the redirect. However the page is in dire need of expansion.

 Luvexina  Talk  Contribs  On Scratch  17:18, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

Marked as  Done however the article still needs expansion

WikiMonitor is hurting me

 Done

Wow, so I just added the {{Done}} and {{-}} templates before the title of a message, and I signed my message under it. The only thing is, I accidentally forgot to add the done thing, so I had to edit my post and put that there. That message was from Wikibot. And then, when I did that, I got another message from WikiMonitor saying that I didn't sign the post meanwhile I'd just added the templates to the title.

Now, maybe this sounds very stupid, but I'm pretty sure I've done this before and WikiMonitor didn't come at me like that. What's going on?
Nambaseking01 (talk | contribs) 15:37, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

Lancer PFP trend

In the last few days, a PFP trend about Lancer from Deltarune has been on many Scratcher's PFPs. They normally replace the eyes and mouth of their face to Lancer's eyes and mouth. @-BoyMcBoy- was the first popular Scratcher to do it, and he got the face from @MusicManJoe. Is this notable enough to add to the Scratch Trends page?

Scratch Links

 Done

Maybe we can add a new brackets thing for Scratch Links. For example: [[Scratch/User:Example]] or [[Scratch/Project:Example]]. For other links, we could just do [[Scratch:{stuff after scratch.mit.edu/}]]. Thoughts?
 Luvexina  Talk  Contribs  On Scratch  23:30, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

My reasoning for this is that it looks much better if it looked like an internal link instead of an external link.

"Scratch/Project:" is too long of a prefix IMO and also they shouldn't have caps. I've been considering adding project: and studio: - is there any other type of thing on Scratch that gets linked to often?
kenny2scratch  Talk  Contribs  Directory  00:53, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Ahmetlii (talk | contribs) 20:20, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Ahmetlii, please correct me if I'm wrong, but your template still seems to produce external links. VFDan is suggesting a system that would produce internal links. I've re-marked this section as  Not done.

Also, a template-related thing: you put <onlyinclude> tags around the {{/doc}}, but they should have been <noinclude> tags, because you don't want to include the doc in the template. Overall though, nice template!

Scratch + the Project to Find the Fundamental Theory of Physics by Stephen Wolfram

Hi everyone! I've been asked to give you a heads up about an excellent program over on the DE Wiki: Scratch Club. I've been a few times (and would love to attend more) and the discussions relate both the Wiki and fascinating technology. The meetings are for international audiences as well with English as a standardized language. Here is a little sneak peak as to what they will be discussing at the next meeting taking place on May 20th, 2020 at *6:30 G.M.T - 8:30 C.E.S.T (Germany)*.

• Offtopic: https://youtu.be/60P7717-XOQ (Stephen Wolfram: Computing a Theory of Everything) - This month Stephen Wolfram presented a breakthrough in his thoughts concerning the creation of an entirely new model of the world based on Automata Theory. He thereby wishes to better explain the laws concerning space, time, energy and matter in a clearer light than previous models. In this manner he is one step closer to achieving his life goal which he presented in the TED-talk linked above ten years ago. Here is his presentation from 4/14/2020 in which he explains his theories as well as he can and affords all interested listeners an opportunity to share his joy in the solution. If his theory is correct, it may be a breakthrough as great as that of Newton and Einstein. Fascinating! https://youtu.be/rbfFt2uNEyQ (Wolfram Physics Project Launch: 14. April 2020)
• The topic above isn't *offtopic* at all but a great idea for us! Who will find the Scratch program that best interprets "Rule 30"? Or who will program it? Who will write a Scratch Wiki article for it that is of such quality that it will be in Wiki Wednesday for both the English and German Wikis at the same time? *This must become a theme within the Scratch community* Why? It is the best example for Scratch's motto: "low floor high ceiling." Every student can appreciate "Rule 30" and even program it, but the implications point to a "Theory of Everything."

  • https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/388985821/ (the first Scratch project I discovered)
  • What Stephen Wolfram has discovered now after fifty years of research efforts and the subject of his new book being published at the end of May is a setup for Cellular Automata with which you can model everything from particle physics to cosmology... but now we are desperately looking for the "correct rule." This would be an analogy to the previous "Rule 30" that inspired Stephen's interest to study this new field of science: "the complexity theory."
  • Here Stephen Wolfram explains why he decided to make his quest (essentially the search for a new Rule 30 that explains what holds the world together) a public project: https://youtu.be/DwjAVp0ig9g (Wolfram Physics Project: Why we Chose to do Science in the Open with Q&A on the Backstory)

Revamping and Reviving S:CPND

 Done

Yes, I know there are already two topics about this, but this one has a very specific suggestion that can be implemented relatively quickly if people agree.

As you probably know, there's a section of the CP specifically for topics that are not yet done and haven't been done for a while. Users can access it by going to Scratch Wiki talk:Community Portal/Not Done or S:CPND, or alternatively via the "Things to Do" link under "For Editors" in the sidebar. The unavoidable fact is that these topics hardly ever get looked at. By anyone.

There have already been two topics created about this issue and how to solve it, Not Done doesn't get enough attention and Not Done. Kenny2scratch introduces his topic (the former one) with "So I was browsing through Scratch Wiki talk:Community Portal/Not Done and realized that all of the discussions had been moved there and left to rot simply because they happened to last longer than an archive period." The unfortunate thing is, this is still happening. And not only that, but ironically, it's happening to both of the topics I linked. Ken's is from February of (drumroll, please) 2018. I am not about to propose a "cure-all" solution to this problem, but something that could help. In other words, it definitely won't solve the problem, but it might assist a bit in solving it.

Well, let's get onto the idea already, shall we? I think that when people do hear about Not Done, and go to it (wanting to contribute to a discussion), they may get frightened by the overwhelming length of some of the topics and leave without contributing to any of them. Therefore, here is my suggestion: we put each discussion (not its corresponding header) into an "extended content" box using {{collapse top}} and {{collapse bottom}}. Then under the header, but not in the "extended content" box, we add a short, one to three sentence summary of what the OP is saying (and perhaps even more things, like what has been discussed so far). I've created a mockup with two discussions here.

I think that this way, when folks go to S:CPND, they can easily find a discussion they'd like to contribute to (without being scared away quickly). Then, when they find a discussion they're interested in, they can un-collapse the box and read the replies so that they can give their opinion. They won't be scared away because they didn't see tons of long discussions at the same time, they just saw short suggestions. Then they see one long discussion after they un-collapse the box — the one they're interested in.

What do you think?

 MartinWollenweber  Talk  Contribs  Directory  15:14, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

I have the same opinion with Bigpuppy, also I have a suggestion: We can archive some of the Not Done topics, because they are not discussed actively and some of them outdated.It's still a big problem.
Ahmetlii (talk | contribs) 20:09, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Hmm, I like the idea but looking at your mockup I'm not sure how well it'd work in practice. I feel like it might be a better idea to let the OP(ost) of each topic be the summary, and rather collapse away all of the subsequent discussion so that it's easier to scroll past. If the OP(ost) itself is really long, then I suppose a manual summary might be in order, but unless the OP(oster) is inactive then it might be a good idea to let them do the summarizing themselves to best capture the essence of the idea. Does that make sense?
kenny2scratch  Talk  Contribs  Directory  16:37, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, I definitely see what you're saying. What defines "really long" though?
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 03:20, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

Whichever human happens to be making the collapsing edit - there doesn't need to be a boundary, just leave it up to the judgement of whoever is doing the moving :)

bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 02:43, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Yes, I think the OP should be part the summary except in situations when its long.
TenType (talk | contribs) 02:45, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for clarifying.
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 02:46, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Alright, since there were no objections, I went ahead and collapsed (almost) all of the discussions on CPND.

Why is the interwiki link for the Test-Scratch Wiki the language code for Twi?

The interwiki code for the Test Wiki is 'tw', and the 'in Other Languages' section of the homepage says 'Twi', again with a link to the Test Scratch Wiki.

On it, there is no Test-Wiki for Twi, which seems to be an African language spoken in Ghana. If there is no Test-Wiki for Twi, why does the Interwiki link to the Test-Wiki use its language code?
Jammum (💬 Talk - ✍️ Contribs) 09:22, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Actually, I saw it before in Wikipedia's ISO 639-3 language codes list a week ago, and I was going to say that. I think this code designed from Test Scratch Wiki. However, I think that it's not a big problem for now.
Ahmetlii (talk | contribs) 11:27, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

test is not an inter-language code, so it's impossible to link to (say) the Test wiki CP using [[test:Test-Scratch-Wiki talk:Community Portal]] the same way we can for real languages. However, tw: happens to be a real language, whose language code is recognized as an inter-language code, whose language code can nicely stand for "test wiki", and whose language name can be repurposed to mean test wiki. If we ever do have a wiki in the actual Twi language, then things will have to change; but for now, we use "Twi" as a means of treating "test" as an inter-language link rather than inter-wiki.

What are...

...common.js pages for?
Dilek10-Talk-Contribs-Profile Page 08:18, 16 May 2020 (UTC)

Your common.js file is a JavaScript file that will run on all pages, no matter what skin you're using - but only for you. It's basically a Wiki-specific alternative to userscripts that MediaWiki supports natively.

Your common.css file is a CSS file that likewise applies to all pages you visit on all skins, only for you.

Changing "common" to the name of a skin, e.g. "scratchwikiskin2" will make it only apply to all pages when you are viewing them in that skin.

There are also MediaWiki:Common.js and MediaWiki:Common.css files (as well as their skin-specific equivalents) that run on all pages for all users. These can only be edited by admins.

Studio Articles

Hi! I was wondering if people can write articles on studios on the Scratch Wiki. The guidelines say if you are not allowed to advertise users or user-generated content. Does this apply to studios? I don't think it does because a Wikian wrote an article about the Scratch Design Studio. It merely explains what the SDC (Scratch Design Studio) is. So my question is can you write an article about a certain studio? Without advertising it of course, but merely explaining what the studio is and its purpose. I don't think I'll be writing any studio articles anytime soon but an answer would be much appreciated. If you would like to answer me on my talk page the link is here
J_Coder26 (talk | contribs) 21:06, 17 May 2020 (UTC)J_Coder26

Articles about user-generated content (whether projects, studios, or anything else) are not allowed. The Scratch Design Studio is not user-generated content as it was created by the Scratch Team.

Mastercoder4life (talk | contribs) 23:37, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello, Mastercoder4life! Welcome to the Scratch Wiki!

On the wiki we have two types of links — internal links and external links. You use internal links when you're linking to a page on the Scratch Wiki, Scratch, or Wikipedia. You use external links to link to any other sites.

To make an internal link, you use this syntax: [[NAME OF PAGE|LINK TEXT, IF APPLICABLE]] For example, if you wanted to link to the page about the Scratch Team, you'd do this: [[Scratch Team]] That would make this: Scratch Team Or you could do this: [[Scratch Team|ST]] That would make this: ST

You make an external link with this syntax: [URL LINKTEXT] For example, if you wanted to link to example.com, you could do this: [https://example.com/ Example] And that would make this: Example

For more information, visit Help:Links.

Again, welcome to the Scratch Wiki! We're happy to have you here!

Although they are no longer active on Scratch (as said on their profile, although they replied to a comment on their profile 28 days ago), comp09 likely owns it.

(I found that out via the 404 page of the archived 1.x Scratch Forums, which links to a website that I eventually found out had a link to it on their Scratch profile).
Jammum (💬 Talk - ✍️ Contribs) 07:27, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

It is owned by blob8108 to my knowledge. Its URL used to be http://scratchforums.blob8108.net/forums/ before and a post by jvvg stats that it is owned by him. I also think I saw him saying that it was owned by him on GitHub once. It might be a good idea to contact him.
R4356th (talk | contribs) 07:00, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

Blob8108 transferred ownership to Andrew Sun (comp09) when the domain changed from scratchforums.blob8108.net to scratcharchive.asun.co.

To answer the original topic, since we have that power now it would probably be a good idea, but then again it would be a major link change operation (both when it comes to search results and links from Wiki or Scratch). I trust Andrew to say something if he doesn't think he can continue hosting the forum archives - if he does say anything, we can volunteer ourselves.

8bitjake, welcome to the Scratch Wiki! You can transclude a template by placing two sets of curly brackets ({{ }}) around the template name. For example, {{doing}} would translude {{doing}}, to make  Doing.... You can do this with other namespaces too; for example, {{User:8bitjake}} would transclude your userpage.

Also, in the future, please place your signature after your message rather than before it. Thanks!

Groko13 (talk | contribs) 22:13, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

I think it should let you overwrite most redirect pages, but since that page had more edits in its history than just making it a redirect, it didn't let you. I deleted the redirect and its associated talk page, then moved the page, so I'll mark this as  Done.

How to create a sidebar?

On user bigpuppy’s profile I clicked edit and copied the code of the sidebar and pasted it to my user page but i don’t even know how to make a side bar. Here are the things that I wanted to change it:

• colour of sidebar:pink
• having my scratch profile picture on it
• having a link to my user page,talk page contributions page, and community portal.

Is there a easier code that can just be edited to make a custom sidebar?
Hani2018 (talk | contribs) 13:57, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

I recommend you to open a page named as User:Hani2018/Sidebar and then, add it to your pages with this code: {{User:Hani2018/Sidebar}}. You can change the colors and boxes by CSS <div> tags, so check Help:CSS for more information.

How to make a April Fools userpage?

(Sorry if my spelling is bad, i am typing on an iPad) It's pretty self-explanatory, but if you really need to.... How do I make a April Fools version of my userpage? 14:37, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Create a page named as Scratch Wiki:April Fools/(your userpage's name) ,put your content with {{AF}}. Add {{April Fools}} to your original userpage.

Bad word filter

Someone must change the abuse filter.There's inappropriate content as fourth. And, lots of the edits are still showing by history. Please rickroll them.
 ahmetlii  Talk  Contributions  Directory  17:04, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

That word isn't always inappropriate and is only wrong if used in a certain way. Also, what's the problem with lots of edits still being shown by history?

Memories for Wiki Wednesday 50

Hi everyone - We have a very special Wiki Wednesday coming up. It will be our fiftieth edition of the newsletter. As a reminder Wiki Wednesday is our monthly newsletter posted on the Scratch website. We want to make this edition extra special! Please submit below some pieces that we could format into the post: short paragraphs about "your favorite Wiki edit" or longer OP-eds encouraging members of the Scratch community to join us as Wikians. I am happy to review and incorparate any idea you have - I really want this edition to reflect our community as a whole. I look forward to reading you responses. I would appreciate if your submission was finished and posted here by June 21st so that I have time to review and format the final post. Thanks again!
Makethebrainhappy (talk | contribs) 02:15, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

I'm so excited! Anyway, my paragraph is:

My favourite Wiki edit was probably the time I edited a bunch of stubs with actually good content in it, not just rushed, 5 minute content. I had a lot of fun doing that, and I want to do it again!
garnetluvcookie (talk | contribs)Garnetluvcookie 00:24, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

My favourite edit is "hmmst'd've's (the pulp free orange juice with extra pulp that crash-landed into my basement and said banana)". It was funny. Also, it's a good example for that Scratch and Scratch Wiki are same, we're not writing "only" boring contexts. Also, we're (as Scratchers in Scratch Wiki) writing for Scratchers. There has funny and helpful things. We're trying to helpful for everyone because this wiki is written by Scratchers for Scratchers. That's the main task.
 ahmetlii  Talk  Contributions  Directory  18:31, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

I love editing for the Wiki because I get to share my knowledge about Scratch and help other people find information that they need. Also, I've learned a lot of new things about Scratch while working on and reading the Wiki articles. Being a Wikian is a great way to give back to the Scratch community, and it's a lot of fun working with people from around the world, whether it's working on a large project or page, or just making some smaller changes to an article. The Scratch Wiki community is really nice and helpful as well.
Groko13 (talk | contribs) 16:00, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Hopefully it's not too late; here's my paragraph:

I don't think I have a favorite edit, because it's all of the edits by every Wikian all coming together that make the Scratch Wiki what it is. If you're looking for a way to help out in the Scratch community, the wiki is a great place for you! You'll get better at collaborating, researching, and writing. Editing the wiki is fun, too! We have a wonderful community that's very welcoming and would be delighted to answer any questions you have. If you're interested in joining, just follow the instructions here: https://en.scratch-wiki.info/wiki/S:CONTRIB We're excited to meet you and see your contributions!

Removing biased opinions on Wiki pages.

There are many pages with a note like:

Note:

This can be hard for New Scratchers to make, as of its complexity.

The Scratch Wiki is supposed to be a neutral source of information about the Scratch website, right? I suggest that we remove all those notices from the pages. New Scratchers aren't dumb. They are just users who made an account. No-one needs to say "This is the green flag. Sound it out with me G. R-" NO. I know a user who is amazing at coding in text-based languages, yet other users were saying "ThE ScRaTcH WiKi sAyS tHaT nEw ScRaTcHeRs CaN't cOdE sHoW I sHoW yOu HoW!1!1!". This is making the Wikians look like fools for putting this stuff on here, I quote an earlier part of my post "The Scratch Wiki is supposed to be a neutral source of information. This is the end of this before it gets a little too ranty.
Garnetluvcookie (talk | contribs)Garnetluvcookie 01:30, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

You bring up a very good point! I agree that all of these notices should be removed. The reader can judge how hard a script will be to understand themselves, based on their experience and skill level. Everyone is different.

Could you mention some specific problems?

Scratch MIDI notes

 Done, though articles mentioning MIDI must be updated

Everywhere I look says that MIDI has 128 notes, from 0 to 127. However, Scratch can play up to note 130 with the Play Note () for () Beats block, so I'm pretty confused. Does Scratch use MIDI? What is it doing?
Groko13 (talk | contribs) 21:31, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

The Community Portal is a place to add questions or suggestions about the Wiki, not Scratch. You may want to ask this in the Advanced Topics forum.
 Luvexina  Talk  Contribs  On Scratch  01:37, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

VFDan, I interpreted the question as something they were asking so that they could improve the wiki, though I might be wrong. However, the talk page of that article may be a better place to ask.
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 01:44, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

Scratch used MIDI until Scratch 2.0, and there are indeed 128 notes from 0 to 127. The notes would be synthesised by software on one's computer, and there are 128 General MIDI instruments. (It's also possible to use an electronic synthesiser, but I don't think that was ever an end-user feature.)

Since Scratch 2 Scratch no longer uses MIDI, but offers 21 sampled instruments. (I think I read somewhere that the Scratch Team was dissatisfied with the MIDI synthesis offered by Flash, or something along those lines, but I don't remember the details so please don't take that as fact.) In Scratch 2 there are still only 128 notes, but Scratch 3 offers 131. Though as mentioned this discussion doesn't quite belong here.
Jonathan50 (talk | contribs) 01:48, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

Mostly I was asking so that I could update this template, but it might apply to other articles, especially if Scratch is no longer using MIDI. Should I move the discussion over there somehow? Although you answered it pretty well. Do you have any sources saying that Scratch doesn't use MIDI anymore? It would be really helpful.
Groko13 (talk | contribs) 01:56, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello! The Community Portal is only for questions related to the Scratch Wiki. You may wish you check out the MediaWiki documentation. As for interwiki linking (assuming that's what you're talking about — "topic:" is not a namespace in our case), Kenny2scratch set that up, so you may wish to ask him.
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 19:47, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

Oh! What I meant is that when you type in topic:1 as a link, (click) it goes to Scratch Forums topic 1. If you go into edit, you can see that that is a link to topic:1, but it goes to scratch.mit.edu when not in edit. I thought this was a namespace.
