User:Rayanth/Requests

On this page, I am keeping track of requests and ideas for future feature implementations.

If you have an idea or request for an update/upgrade to the UniWiki, please do not hesitate to edit this page and add it. If possible, sign your edit with four tilde's in a row: ~~~~ (This will help me find you if I need clarification, more info, or want to give credit where it's due)

All suggestions are welcome and will be considered! New Extensions, changes to the Skin or new Skins, Recategorizing things or developing a new series of articles, feel free to put it here.

Extensions

• More granular privilege control (by department for restricted pages) Rayanth (talk) 15:39, 14 July 2019 (CDT)
• Map extension (to implement in-game Ship Tree equivalent)? Drebin 679 (talk) 02:00, 7 October 2019 (CDT)

Skins

• A series of skins based on in-game UI color themes Rayanth (talk) 15:39, 14 July 2019 (CDT)

Features

• Upgrade the Fittings and/or Ship Info pages to use in-game fitting window for something that's "familiar" to players Rayanth (talk) 15:39, 14 July 2019 (CDT)

Other

• Unsure if from upgrades, a feature to enable, or an extension: Add the lock icon in top right corner of page to indicate it's restricted. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eve_Online and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Protection_policy#semi (Suggested by Drebin)
• Fixing the < math></math>. Writing formulas elsewhere and bringing them in as png images is inconvenient.Hirmuolio pine (talk) 15:56, 14 July 2019 (CDT)
  • This will be fixed as part of the upgrades. the current embedded Math module is obsolete and broken. there is a new one with the newer MW Versions. Keeping on the list to remind me to test. Rayanth (talk) 14:18, 19 July 2019 (CDT)
    • Update: I lied. It's not fixed simply by upgrading. My original understanding of the problem was incorrect, it is a server-side issue that we'll have to convince Bates to dig into. Rayanth - Manager of the UniWiki 13:51, 4 September 2019 (CDT)
  • Also, consider looking at Template:Formula - it seems to generate the formula directly from latex, and doesn't use the Math functions. Rayanth (talk) 17:51, 20 July 2019 (CDT)
    • And this doesn't work either. For same reasons. Server-side issue with latex setup. Rayanth - Manager of the UniWiki
      • Updated Update to the Updates that previously Updated: SimpleMathJax has been installed, which is not the same module as before but uses the same <math> tags. Rayanth - Manager of the UniWiki 21:10, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
• Standardizing Campus pages to have a consistent layout/look (suggested by Tokumei Kumiai)
  • Adding to this request: Management/Staff pages are being considered for conversion to a template and/or Semantic. This should also allow transclusion of campus staff to the campus pages, so updates are only needed in one place. Rayanth - Manager of the UniWiki 21:10, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
• Adding zKill/other community pages to ship fits Drebin 679 (talk) 02:00, 7 October 2019 (CDT)
• Issue report: Attempting to upload two new revisions of an image within a (roughly) 24-hour period causes the wiki to not only not display the new revision, but to revert to displaying either the previous revision (the one from before the first new upload) on the image page or a page using it, or displaying the first new revision if the image is viewed at full size. Furthermore, attempting to re-upload either the first or second new revision gives an error message that the revision already exists (despite the wiki not displaying it). I have now encountered this issue twice in the last few months (most recently on File:Eve-hisec-chokepoints-basic-ring.png), and I would appreciate if someone could look into what's going on here.
