Manual talk:Using content from Wikipedia
From MediaWiki.org
Has anyone had inexplicable issues with templates imported from Wikipedia? For instance, I imported w:Template:Infobox person and checked the box to also import templates. But it doesn't seem to be working properly here or here. Any thoughts? Tisane 15:50, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Good call, plus on libertapedia there were issues with outdated templates. Tisane 15:43, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
Bots [edit]
We should tell people how to get the same bots that operate on Wikipedia to work on their sites. Tisane 15:43, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
Can using site CSS and JS from Wikipedia mess up how your site is rendered on mobile devices? [edit]
I am getting some strange reports; see Manual_talk:Short_URL#Short_URL_messes_up_mobile_browsing.3F. It sounds more plausible that it's from copied site CSS or JS than from the short url. Tisane 21:34, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
