Discussion

  • Please start new threads under a level-2 heading, using double equals-signs and an informative title: ==Informative title==. If a thread is related to an ongoing discussion, consider instead placing it under a level-3 heading within that discussion.
  • When posting, please sign and date all contributions, using four tilde characters "~~~~", which is translated into a signature and a time stamp automatically.
  • If discussion is already ongoing at another page, or there is another page which is a more natural location for a discussion, please continue the discussion there, and only put a short note of the issue, and a link to the relevant location, on this page.

User report

Hey adminstration. I think I'm doing the right thing by making a report here (please correct me if I'm wrong) Anyways I would like to report the user Micronationofduckionary. This user keeps deleting factual information on the Grand Micronation Alliance wiki page. As the founder of the former organization I really don't appreciate his repeated deletion of the last segment of the body text of the wiki page. It would be great if there was someway of stopping the user from doing this as I would like to preserve the history of the organization. It would be great if you could help me out. This user is attempting to cover up there own past actions. Thanks for your possible help Posloe (Zachary of Elba)

New Admins!

I propose holding an election to elect 2 new admins to help the current administration with moderation and over all administration. Any active member would be able to nominate a fellow micronationalist and vote. How do y'all feel about that? Comment your opinion.

Presentation of the President of CELTIC

Good afternoon I am new to this wiki. I am the president of a Uruguayan micronation called CELTIC; I tried to make an article, but I think it went into moderation and I still haven't been able to continue it. Also, I have a hard time making the templates ... I have registered with email and I have already confirmed it. I have put a username and also my real name, to show that my intentions in this wiki are serious. I greet all the members of this community and I hope they will moderate the CELTIC page soon, so I can continue contributing. Sincerely, --Lord Stob--

Hi there. It will take 4 days and ten edits to be able to create/edit pages without moderation.

Help please, I’m having some issues

Hello all. I am president of my newfound country Aa Kyusa Republic, Aaron Carter. Does anyone here know how I can create a page of my nation? If anyone could give me an answer that would be greatly appreciated, thank you. :)

Would you mind if we had a Micromedia Foundation, much like the Wikimedia foundation but about micronations? Here are some wikis it shall include:

Micronary, a micronational dictionary, like Wiktionary, at https://dictionary.micronations.wiki Microvoyage, a guide for travelling to micronations, like Wikivoyage, at https://travel.micronations.wiki Micronews, a portal of news about micronations, like Wikinews, at https://news.micronations.wiki Microhow, a bunch of micronation how-tos, like Wikihow, at https://microhow.micronations.wiki Microconstitutions, micronational constitutions, at https://constitutions.fandom.com MicroMedia Meta, a combination of Wikimedia Incubator and Wikimedia MetaWiki, at https://meta.micronations.wiki Would you accept these projects?

How are you doing today Good Sir!

How to create an article?

Providentia was founded somewhere the last decade and is not (yet) independent from Switzerland and neither a federal part. It strives the independence from the Canton of Aargau to become a canton itself, the 27th of Switzerland. It has currently no papers or publications, but the coat of arms is in progress. The motto is "Non deciperis, te decipis ipse." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Didone (talk • contribs)

Hi Didone. Check out this page to start your article! If you need any help, don't be afraid to ask! Sertor (Chat) 18:21, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

Usage

Is this a thing we are going to be using more regularly now? Matt talk ☼ 22:48, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

No idea. It definitely should be encouraged though! It would be nice to see an increase of community stuff returning on-site. Sertor (Chat) 00:09, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
Would be cool. User:Devinpurcell (talk) 17:17, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Requested Block

Requesting block on User:YYZKristi86, who created the page Different Types Of Plumbing Connectors and links to a company website. This is clearly self-promotion and the nature of the username means it is problably randomized. I nominated the article for speedy deletion as MicroWiki is clearly not a web host, and now am requesting the account should be blocked. Thanks! User:Devinpurcell (talk) 17:14, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know Devinpurcell, I have blocked them. These spam articles sometimes slip past our spam filtering system. Cheers, Matt talk ☼ 23:26, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Requesting Block

Can someone block User:Microsavage 123 Special:Contributions:Microsavage 123. He has vandalized numerous Dracul related articles. User:Devinpurcell (talk) 12:32, 25 January 2022 (UTC)


Any Help?

Mrdudeguy(Talk) I have 2 questions:

1: Are we supposed to be deleting the discussions on this page that aren't in use?

2: Can someone send me a list of Infobox terms and what they do? Trying to add to my current page.

Hello @Mrdudeguy:, no we do not delete the discussions on this page. They will eventually be archived by admins. The infobox terms are just different things relating to your nation which you can find in the template documentation. User:Devinpurcell (talk) 19:00, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your help! Could you include a link to template documentation?

@Mrdudeguy: Here you go: link User:Devinpurcell (talk) 16:55, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you so much!

Macronational Recognition

Hello, how many of you guys have sent letters or other correspondence to macronations and have received a reply? If so please link me to the document because I am trying to send out letters and I am having trouble formatting and what to say. -- President Devin Purcell  Penn Federal Republic 17:46, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi

Hello I want to talk about stuff.

aww no one responded D':
The community portal has been seldom used for over a decade. Perhaps you can join the MicroWiki Discord server if you wish to engage in the community. Have a great day : D ★ ZabëlleNB ♥︎ (formerly Z Luna Skye) (talk | edits) 03:09, 7 August 2022 (UTC)

How to Delete a Page?

When I first started on Microwiki, I started a page, then, I started another Page for my Nation, the Kingdom of Mdesk, because the name was outdated. Can anyone tell me how to delete a article/page?

Hey there. May I advise that you don’t delete your old page, but instead link it to your new page, whether a redirect or links throughout the article’s text. If you really need it deleted, you can contact an administrator about that. All the best - Concordian Republic Callum Russell, Concordian President (user | talk) 05:41, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
