Other site
Admin: I run http://wikipensacola.com. As I look at some of the stuff you are doing, it seems silly to duplicate one another's efforts. There are a few issues I have with your site, though. When I first visited this site you were using a restrictive license, but it appears that you have migrated to GFDL. Is this the case for all content? Secondly, why do you use that weird SWF Flash thing to render article titles? Just to use that font? :-) Wikipens 22:28, 13 March 2007 (CDT)
Also
May I ask what hosting company you are using? Also what version of MediaWiki? And your logo, did you design that, or pull it from somewhere? Wikipens 15:18, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- Wasn't sure if you noticed my previous response, but I'm posting answers to these questions on your talk page. --Admin 16:01, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- Yeah, I noticed. Wikipens 16:18, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
Thirdly
I didn't even realise MediaWiki 1.9 was out. Geez.
I am considering merging my project into yours, because as I said, it seems kind-of silly to duplicate our efforts. Firsly, would you have any problem with me doing that?
Secondly, do you have a process for adminning other users? Do you plan on allowing other admins? Wikipens 16:18, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- One more thing: Do you make backups of the database ever? Wikipens 16:54, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- So far, I've done backups whenever I upgrade the MediaWiki software. I suppose that's something I'll need to do more frequently, though. --Admin 17:00, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- Sorry for the endless questions, but I am curious and OCD... Did you try using the logo as the favicon? It looks like it would make a really nice favicon, but too much detail might be lost at 16x16, j/w... Wikipens 17:10, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
- Also, you can delete the image I uploaded at Image:Endoftheline.jpg if you like, I am not ready to move the article over, I have to figure out the differences in the google maps extensions our two sites use. Wikipens 17:20, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
Ah ha! I didn't notice that "make a map" link. That makes it a lot more intuitive than the GMaps extension I was using. Mine didn't have the ability to do paths, either. Awesome. Wikipens 20:30, 16 March 2007 (CDT)

I have responded to you on my talk page. Also, I tried to insert route number (Florida 289) into the infobox code for the 9th Avenue article, but it is not displaying, would you mind taking a look at that? I am not good with conditionals. Wikipens 12:19, 24 March 2007 (CDT)
- I'm fairly certain the problem is entirely my fault. (I'm not good with conditionals either.) The Wikipedia road infobox I copied had all kinds of extra parameters for cross-country highways that I omitted, and some of the output fields were probably lost in the process. I'll look into it. --Admin 13:29, 24 March 2007 (CDT)
