My Apartment Manager is not a Wiki Thread, #3
RE: My Apartment Manager is not a Wiki Thread, #3
Hm. I'll double check tonight. It was just something I noticed at the last minute before shutting down for the night.

And I just noticed that the image of Johnny B's EP cover is missing. Did we lose files in the move?

Looks like we're missing six files:
  • File:Go johnny go.jpg
  • File:Misfits - Glo.jpg
  • File:Misfits - Johnnyb.jpg
  • File:Misfits - elvin.jpg
  • File:Quiet Thunder.jpg (which I have restored from my archives)
  • File:Rhiannon Thornhill.jpg

This is why we put the source links in the file descriptions.

EDIT: Okay, I just restored Rhiannon, I'll need to recreate "Go johnny go.jpg" because I didn't keep a file copy, but the rest can be grabbed from their original sources and restored easily enough. This is weird, though, because I could've sworn they were all there last night.

Okay, I had File:Misfits - Glo.jpg and File:Misfits - Johnnyb.jpg in my cache and saved them locally, I'll be re-uploading them shortly (and recreating go johnny go.jpg from the Johnny image).

Okay, all restored now. I took the opportunity to get a better head-and-shoulders shot for Johnny, and just used the guitar shot for the EP cover.

I've been trying to upload an image for ten or fifteen minutes now, only to consistently get a "500 Internal Server Error". I wasn't having any problems uploading earlier this morning.

Speaking of which, I've added about half a dozen images for characters who needed them.

I've been getting 500 errors on ATT, as well. Wait an hour and try again...

Hair is dark brown (with some silver showing up), eyes are blue
height is roughly 6ft, blood type? umm, O Positive, had to look it up, been a while since I needed to think about it

So... Just for fun I took this info and the rest you provided in another post, and fed it into Google's new ImageFX generator, and this is what it offered me:


.jpg   Norgarths.jpg (Size: 89.03 KB / Downloads: 115)

Would any of these suit you as the face of your fictional counterpart? (Or should I tell ImageFX to try again?)

I didn’t know Norgarth was a published author. Seriously, all of the middle aged white male training data must be book jacket covers.

Not a publish author, just a massive bookworm who's often got a book in hand (that I was reading until you came over to interact) 8P

Cool. When I get off work I'll download the full image, and do the usual stuff to get it up on the wiki.

I can live with that.

In the meantime, I'll get that sketch of me onto the wiki this weekend even if it means using my cellphone to scan it. Two down (Norgarth and me), eight to go.

And that's why I picked a sexaroid.

There're are of them already.

I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.

One day they're going to ban them.

We have another character icon -- this time, regarding sartorial choices.

I need somebody to check the wiki -- is this happening to only me, or to only our wiki?

Clicking on any link or following any URL to any wiki page results in:
Quote:MediaWiki internal error.

Original exception: [7972efe23bd346776fd62b84] 2024-03-14 23:41:33: Fatal exception of type "Wikimedia\Services\NoSuchServiceException"

Exception caught inside exception handler.

Set $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; at the bottom of LocalSettings.php to show detailed debugging information.

It just started a couple of minutes ago (luckily, just after I saved a change and got the confirmation banner).

Is this happening to just me, or do I need to enter a bug report?
