I was asked to leave this message here:
Hi guys,
My name is Southparkfan, a Miraheze staff member (some of you might also know that I was an Orain staff member in the past) that is responsible for the import of All The Tropes. The import is going a bit slow but well, and it shouldn't take too long anymore before the wiki is fully imported. Currently there are 258582 pages imported, and 144341 of them are articles (http://allthetropes.miraheze.org/wiki/ ... Statistics is not trustworthy at this moment due to technical issues who will be fixed after the import).
We will be doing a reimport soon, and this time we know where things went wrong, so please bear with us, more time is needed, this is a big job, but we ARE working on it.
Labster provided me with some images which will be imported asap too. The Forum: pages are currently not imported, but I will restore them from my backup so we can convert them too Flow. I'll also talk to GethN7 and Labster if they want VisualEditor enabled on All The Tropes, and/or some various other features we're happy to offer.
I hopefully gave you enough information about how things are going on now, but if you want to know more please do not hesitate to send us an email (sysadmin[at]miraheze[dot]org) or contact us on IRC (#miraheze on irc.freenode.net).
-- Southparkfan, Miraheze system administrator
I do need to mention the above explains why it wasn't kosher to edit until he was done (we have a few database hiccups as a result), but the good news is that I sent SPF a possible fix that won't involve doing the whole import over again.
I have also requested that yes, LiquidThreads be replaced by Flow (we can always fall back to LQT if worse comes to worse) and VisualEditor be added as an option. I'm not a raging fan of the latter, but since the default editor will always be there, just consider VisualEditor a WYSIWYG alternative.
Also, I ask everyone please don't panic if if looks like we're down. To prevent a repeat of what happened before, ATT is down from public view until the import is finished.
