Zelda Wiki:Milk Bar

Where'd all my edits go?

Just now I noticed that all the edits I've made in the past few hours have vanished, along with any sign of their existence. All of the articles I've edited appear as they did before I edited them, and the edits no longer appear in Recent Changes or in my contribution log. I'm probably missing something really obvious, but what's going on here?--Osteoderm Jacket 17:41, 12 January 2012 (EST)

Same here, thats wierd, I updated Iris's page an hour ago by uploading her Sprite and it appears to have disappeared, the image and the changes, what just happened here? --Vaati The Wind Demon 17:49, 12 January 2012 (EST)

Hmm. If it happened to more than one person over the same interval I'm guessing it's a server problem.--Osteoderm Jacket 17:52, 12 January 2012 (EST)

Same, here reported it to staff XXSuperXXNintendoXx 17:52, 12 January 2012 (EST)

Does that mean I'l have to reupload the file or is it fixable? --Vaati The Wind Demon 17:55, 12 January 2012 (EST)

Seems like the wiki went down 2 days ago, so they uploaded a previous backup of the server where our edits today wern't back up on.

Ah. I take it my edits can't be recovered and I should go ahead and redo them, then?--Osteoderm Jacket 18:01, 12 January 2012 (EST)

To be safe, yes XXSuperXXNintendoXx 18:07, 12 January 2012 (EST)

It won't let me upload the image now, I get an error saying, "The upload directory (public) is not writable by the webserver.". How do I fix this? --Vaati The Wind Demon 19:00, 12 January 2012 (EST)

Thanks for letting us know, we're currently looking into this problem. We apologize for the inconvenience! --Dany36 19:11, 12 January 2012 (EST)

Shadow Dungeon Symbol

The current symbol for Shadow Dungeons is a dark and demonic bat head thing. In my opinion, I think it looks just a little bit silly. Wouldn't a black or purple skull be more suitable? Anyway, I'm not exactly complaining, I'm just trying to suggest changes for the better. Lahmaster 4:16, 13 January 2012 (AEST)

Not a bad idea. I hope Abdul can spot this suggestion (I suck horrendously at making decent templates other tha navigation templates and the like, so I apologize for my incompetence). --User:K2L/sig 02:05, 13 January 2012 (EST)

I don't really see how a black or purple skull is any less silly than the current symbol. Besides, this is Zelda. It's a series that allows for a bit of silliness, even in the more serious games.--Osteoderm Jacket 06:53, 14 January 2012 (EST)

It this point, we're really just nitpicking: skulls, bats, rats, ghosts - they could all suffice for "Shadow" dungeons, and there isn't one that's more representative than the other. This being said, a skull wouldn't really be a change for the better, it would be a change from something that works to something that works equally well. To that, I say let's leave it as is, cool thought though. — cipriano^talk 10:50, 17 January 2012 (EST)
