Wikibase/Wikibase.cloud/Wikibase settings

The settings page contains two tabs: Wiki settings and Features.

Wiki settings
The Wiki settings tab allows you to customize several aspects of your newly created Wikibase instance, including its appearance and whether prospective users will be allowed to register new accounts on their own. This tab also offers the option of deleting your Wikibase.




 * Details: This panel contains information about your Wikibase instance: your site's name and domain, when it was created, and more.
 * Skin: This chooser allows you to customize the skin of your Wikibase: Vector, Modern or Timeless.
 * Logo: Here you can configure the logo that will appear in the top corner of every page on your wiki. Your uploaded image should be square; it'll be resized to 135x135 pixels.
 * Registration: Turn this switch on to require approval for new accounts by users on your Wikibase who have the bureaucrat right. Turn this switch off to allow open registration of accounts without approval.
 * Wikibase options: The following two options are for advanced users. Changing them may cause problems with your Wikibase.
 * Value lengths: These fields control the length (in characters) of strings and of monolingual text fields. Lengths can range from 400 (default) to 2500.
 * Multilang lengths: This field controls the length (in characters) of multilanguage fields such as labels and descriptions. Lengths can range from 250 (default) to 2500.
 * Delete site: Clicking this button will allow you to delete this instance of Wikibase. You will be asked to confirm.
