== 2015 room parties template ==
Hello. I've come up with an idea (again). The idea is to use a template on all room pages to list the party rooms. Rooms that wouldn't be changed for the party would redirect to their normal version. Here's an example for Town:
{{User:Misabr/sandbox_2/Rooms|Town|[[Media:Music836.swf|836]]|[[Media:Music867.swf|867]]|[[Media:Music896.swf|896]]}}
or for Coffee Shop (we would make the red links redirect to the normal version of the room)

*I see no need to list parties if the room wasn't decorated. --[[User:Juca|<span style="color:#ff7c00;"><b>Juca</b></span>]] [[User talk:Juca|<span style="color:#c00000;"><b>(discussão/talk)</b></span>]] [[File:Penguinguitar.png|link=Special:Contributions/Juca|20px]] 22:04, 4 May 2015 (UTC) P.S.: We need to create a page for dicussions, because we are misusing the Main Page talk.
**For the list, most of the rooms are missing most of stuff, have a look at [[Cave]], this would make it easier to update - that's why I suggested it. As for the talk page, agreed here, we need something like [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Village_pump|Wikipedia's Village pump]] in one page...  {{user:Misabr/sig2}} 22:27, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

I've been looking through [[special:UnusedFiles]] and I saw this: [[media:Paper1000102.swf]] [[media:Sprites1000102.swf]] [[media:1000102.swf]]. Here is the problem. What to do with these files?

== Naming system ==
we REALLY NEED an unified naming system for rooms... Right now, when I create some missing room pages (or update informations), it's hard to find the rooms, because the names don't follow an unified system. I think, that all rooms should be uploaded as "File:RoomsNameOfTheRoom-Party.swf" for example "File:RoomsTown-TheFair2015.swf"  {{user:Misabr/sig2}} 18:00, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

******It'd be a really good idea to give the bot flag to [[user:MisabrBot|MisabrBot]] at [[ptwiki:|CPW PT]], because I only need to do a few adjustments to my user_fixes.py file and then the bot would be ready to fix the links  {{user:Misabr/sig2}} 21:14, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

File namespace needs to be treated as a content namespace, and you should adjust Apache to open SWF files in-browser. (Or I might have Flash disabled a long time ago and not know it) --refractor this is a thing<staff/> 12:03, 13 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Wiki statistics

It's possible to list the number of uploaders by doing something like:

{{NUMBERINGROUP:Uploader}} users with [[Special:ListUsers/uploader|uploader rights]].

Which results:
0 users with uploader rights.

request for testing: swf rendering

Can people try the new SWF renderer on the server? It essentially automates what the guide does, but some people have rendering problems (it seems to vary by server)
