Hello,

The USNW Wiki has decided to move its wiki from our outgoing hosts Wikkii to here in Shoutwiki. However, we have a few things that needs to be ironed out before the situation becomes normal.

(solved) Original Wiki[edit source]

In July of 2013, an old account of mine (I also need help merging the account 'ArrowHead3' to this account) created "en.usnw-wiki.shoutwiki.com". I have not realized that wiki had the en. counterpart before we really moved the wiki here at Shoutwiki. I am requesting that the en. counterpart to be deleted and the current English Version of the USNW wiki be moved to the en. prefix. This leads us to the second request.

Can you send this via Special:Contact and our Customer Support Team should be able to sort this out for you. --Lewis Cawte (talk) ShoutWiki Staff 10:00, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
Deleted the original en.usnw-wiki and moved the new one there. Also fixed the interwiki on jp.usnw-wiki to the new site. User accounts can't be merged so you might as well just forget the old one :)--Cook879 ShoutWiki Staff talk 00:46, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
Thanks! ArrowHead (talk) 02:24, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

(solved) Inter language prefixes[edit source]

Not a long time ago, after USNW moved to the new wiki, I have also created a Japanese prefixed version with the link ja.usnw-wiki. The problem is, we have no idea how to do Inter language prefixing so we might need some help to the Shoutwiki admins about the connection of en.usnw-wiki to ja.usnw-wiki. Thanks!

--nvm, it got solved :P ArrowHead (talk) 04:19, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

Navboxes[edit source]

Currently our team is having difficulty fixing the navboxes, as it involved some #invoke function. Can anyone help us?

Thanks! ArrowHead, representing the USNW wiki and the members of the USNW ArrowHead (talk) 04:11, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

I'm not an expert, but I think #invoke comes from Scribunto, the Lua extension? I was going to look into installing that on ShoutWiki a while back but got side tracked or something. Might be SMW, not entirely sure. If it is Scribunto, it is something I planned to look into again when 1.23 is fully released which will be in about a week and a half's time? --Lewis Cawte (talk) ShoutWiki Staff 09:59, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for the assurance, our guys have been also looking at this one if it is a scribunto extension or not ArrowHead (talk) 02:23, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
