Twitter Account
The twitter linked on the main page is owned by Erro, isn't it? Shouldn't we delete that, try to distance ourselves from him as much as possible? --Thassil (talk) 13:55, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
- I've moved it to my talk page for when/if a new twitter account is made --Jordie0608 (talk) 20:05, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
Linking basic guides
I think that instead of useless links like "2014 dev plan" and "wiki statistics" there should be links to often used guides like guide to chemistry, surgery, cooking, construction etc More "niche" guides like virology or genetics can remain on their own pages but important stuff that new players or players looking for quick access to important guides should be included Bay's wiki has this and it's really useful whenever I find myself using it to just be able to instantly go to where I need easily --Miggles (talk) 23:28, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
Main_Page_Mockup
I took the liberty of redesigning the Main Page to remove scrolling and fixed pixel widths. I also added the new Mediawiki feature - Gallery with a set mode for the 3 images. This one uses "packed-hover", which shows a caption on mouse-over. I've also simplified the table code and made it easier to read or edit in the future.
Thoughts? --Rahlzel (talk) 01:57, 24 October 2014 (EDT)
"Error Creating Thumbnail"
I've seen this error a few times on the wiki. It's usually caused by having $wgUseImageMagick = true; in the LocalSettings.php. Comment this out or set it to false to fix the problem. In Guide to Atmospherics you'll find an image with this problem. You can use that to verify the fix as needed. --Rahlzel (talk) 06:31, 30 October 2014 (EDT)
- Disabling the feature is not the proper way to fix it unless it is truly broken. In this case the issue is that image magic wasn't installed on the new server when i switched over. So I Just installed it and in a moment or so wiki should fix itself. Imagemagic is needed because other wise the wiki will serve up the full sized image rather then its thumbnail, imagine loading the 12mb map image every time you loaded the map page (and then again if you went to open up the map). The bandwidth is just too high.MrStonedOne (talk) 08:18, 6 December 2014 (EST)
wltoys quadcopter
The micro models have standard controls that are of 2 or 3 channels. They come with ringed rotor blades that provide maximum safety. Some of these machines take time to learn. In fact, handling them can be challenging to those who are not experts. The tiny ones have built in rechargeable batteries and controllers that are easy to carry around. There are the models that are 6 inches long, with dual rotary blades and rotor on the tail. They can fly in four directions and do some stunts, such as hovering. Kids and adults, alike, like to play indoors with remote control helicopters wltoys rc helicopter like the Micro Mosquito, the Firefly, the BlackGhost and the Bladerunner. All these are for indoor sport and are of 3 channels. The similarities that exist in the mini remote control helicopters are the same starting from their design and components. Take the example of the Micro Mosquito that has 27 MHz and can do 49MHz frequencies. They are similar to the Bladerummer 3, with the main difference being that the latter is a model with infrared capacity. There are many unique styles such as the RadioShack, Hammacher Schelemmer, just to mention a few but all of which can be online. The ultra-micro size models are for indoor sports as well but have the CX and CX2 blades. It has 4 channels instead of the usual 2-3 channel capacity. Another version is the one that uses improved Helix design called the Reflex and has dual-rotary blades and a couple of thrust propellers. This one comes with a bigger body when compared to most mini remote control helicopters wltoys quadcopter that are for indoors purposes. As can be expected, it is tougher than the rest and can easily be applied in outdoor sport. If a person is desires the model that can suit a group of friends who want to fly their remote control helicopters wltoys helicopter together, the matter is straightforward. The best choice is the small indoor ones that look like the US Military Apache Helicopter. They are in three infrared frequencies, but what it means is that three friends can operate them together. The smaller kids from 8 years can do with the toy versions that are able to fly indoors. They come with two blades and two tail rotors. The two tails are opposite each other. It can be put on auto pilot but also uses the remote control. When playing indoors, kids should not be allowed to hit the younger ones with these toys.
