Welcome to the eRepublik Bar

 Remember to sign (~~~~) your comments! 

Speech balloon.png What is the bar?

The Bar is a place in which editors can exchange their ideas, or drink a beer.

After introducing yourself at the Community Portal, you can learn what changes need to be made, see what projects are going underway and take part in many active discussions. You are welcome to start a new discussion, but keep in mind that all articles have their own talk pages, and please remember to sign your comments!

In summary, how we treat each other does matter. It matters because, without empathy, our lives are shallow, self-centered and meaningless.

Stock post message.png To-Do list

We need editors and translators!
If you are new and don't have any experience with wiki at all - ask for help in the Bar!
Dear editors and translators, we need you to:



Projects

If you want to help, there is a big deal of articles that have to be updated:

And also, a lot of articles has to be translated from English to other languages:

For translators, check the ending of your language - for example, for Croatian language search for /Hrvatski, for Finnish article search for /Suomi. --AndyCro Icon-Croatia.png Click here to talk with me baby! ;) 16:12, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Translations

A lot of changes has been made in the last months and currently we have tons of translations out of date providing outdated information to your fellow countrymen. So I urge you, our dear translators, to check every article there is about game play in this wiki that has been translated to your language and update them. You can start by updating articles found from Category:Outdated. --Icon-Finland.png sampo555 | Talk 14:13, 26 June 2011 (PDT)

Yeah, ikr? I was checking out my old pages and I was like... whaaaaaaat? Then I saw how this guy called EmperorZahradkaII decided that he could edit all of the military pages and slap his ~~~~ to show he's "been there" or something... I thought that was pretty cool. </sarcasm> Icon-Taiwan.pngIcon-USA.pngIcon-China.pngIcon-Australia.png- Jameson L. Tai talkFmr.UberEditor 10:51, 28 December 2011 (PST)

New alliance

Just a query but a new alliance has been formed that's technically the Junior EDEN, called the Garden of EDEN alliance. I want to make a page on it but the name could be different. Would it be, the Garden of EDEN alliance or the Garden of Erepublik Defence & Economy Network Alliance. I'm not sure as the new policy for Alliance names is somewhat, non-existent besides the vote a few months ago. -- Icon-USA.png Mikhail Alexander | Talk 17:38, 2 January 2012 (PST)

Last time I checked, if there are articles published by the country's official press outlining the alliance then it's technically notable enough to proceed with an article with the exact name used in the article. But I could be wrong... Icon-Taiwan.pngIcon-USA.pngIcon-China.pngIcon-Australia.png- Jameson L. Tai talkFmr.UberEditor 22:26, 2 January 2012 (PST)
"The Garden", or just "Countries that are too small to give a damn about them"? --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 05:22, 3 January 2012 (PST)
Grzechooo, it's just a mini-alliance and if EDEN like them enough, they are accepted. They're told to f*** off. Also everyone refers to it as the "Garden of EDEN" so I might as well call it that, if it happens to change or whatever. I can work with that. -- Icon-USA.png Mikhail Alexander | Talk 23:30, 5 January 2012 (PST)

History Bug?

Not sure whether its a bug or a feature but I and others can't find page histories for last year. Eg.: http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php?title=Game_Moderators&action=history http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php?title=Community_communication&action=history --"Icon-Poland.png Gucio16" 15:50, 5 January 2012 (PST)

Same Here, only last edition :S.--Santirub«say me hi :3» 18:00, 5 January 2012 (PST)
Something is broken but don't except it to be fixed. Admins don't use their time in wiki anymore. If you wish, you can report a bug via ticket but I already know exactly what's gonna happen to the ticket... --Icon-Finland.png sampo555 | Talk 22:40, 5 January 2012 (PST)
Everyone knows what will happen with that ticket. --"Icon-Poland.png Gucio16" 23:50, 5 January 2012 (PST)
"Broken", or someone did "php maintenance/deleteOldRevisions.php" ;3 --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 07:36, 8 January 2012 (PST)

Problems?

I apologize if this is in the wrong section (I'm still trying to figure this place out). That being said, are we having a problem? I can't seem to get to the United States of America Wiki page. I had other friends try it as well, all we get is a 500 error. Thanks EmperorZahradkaII 10:24, 12 January 2012 (PST)

Huh, seems like there is a problem, since I get a blank page, and it looks like the page got somehow "vandalized":
 The United States of America is a nation situated in the Western Hemisphere of the world sandwiched by Canada to the North and Mexico to the South. 
(USA page)
But unfortunately, stupid Wiki Engineers deleted old revisions (congrats), so I don't have any way to revert to any usable state. --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 10:35, 13 January 2012 (PST)
Is there any way we can set it to a state where we can at least start adding information again? I can't even see the page to edit it... EmperorZahradkaII 10:50, 13 January 2012 (PST)
Seems like an ID-10T error to me, EmerperorZahradkaII. I can see it just fine and can edit it as I please. Icon-USA.pngIcon-Taiwan.pngIcon-China.pngIcon-Australia.png- Jameson L. Tai talkUberEditor 03:21, 14 January 2012 (PST)
Jameson, don't call users idiots, it just gives a blank page for me, and for some users too. --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 04:02, 14 January 2012 (PST)
And, "is there any way we can set it to a state", I already said:
 stupid Wiki Engineers deleted old revisions (congrats), so I don't have any way to revert to any usable state. 
(Grzechooo)
--Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 04:04, 14 January 2012 (PST)

It seems that the wiki servers can't handle that big load (request times out but the wiki can't seem to be able to show some informing error message). It works sometimes because of page caching (the servers render the page once and after that it's loaded from cache). --Icon-Finland.png sampo555 | Talk 08:16, 14 January 2012 (PST)

It seems to be the RegionsTable template with thousands of parses causing the problems... Removed it for now (should work better now). --Icon-Finland.png sampo555 | Talk 08:19, 14 January 2012 (PST)

Let me interrupt you there for a second

Now that I have your attention, I don't remember anyone wishing me a happy new year...how dare you!
So I decided to drop a line or more, wishing to all the contributors, old and new, good and not, an apocalyptic happy full with new experiences new year 2012!
Pics animated-deniro-watching-you.gif About my activity, I'm watching you. So to make this not a not useful topic, let's count the active contributors that check the bar on here by leaving a comment here.

Vandalism?

Citizen page of Iain Keers has been blanked, except for template.

I thought that it may have been an accident, however after checking changes made in the template, eg.: Faith= NOT DIOISM, Politics - FAILURE of ONE... it appears to be a deliberate attack.

Changes were made by User:Ishabad.

--Sre8renica 18:54, 23 January 2012 (PST)

Ishabad has been blocked. Page reverted back to normal. Thanks for pointing this out. Yours, Daniel--DanielDimow||Speak to me. 13:09, 24 January 2012 (PST)

It's the same. :D But yeah... --DanielDimow||Speak to me. 03:49, 28 January 2012 (PST)

Mohammad Mian was involved in reverting Pakistan page. Appears to be war between old Dio and new Islamic Pakistan. Daniel Dimov has protected the Pakistan page, and as a result Mohammad Mian replaced Daniels's page with a signature.--Sre8renica 22:20, 8 February 2012 (PST)

I'm open to discuss, if you think he hadn't deserved his ban. --DanielDimow||Speak to me. 02:48, 12 February 2012 (PST)

Hello. [[1]] hasn't got Pampas listed as one of its borders, where Pampas has South east Chaco listed. Correct that please.I already informed Xtasia, but maybe you should get to know it too, in case she forgets. All of the wiki regions are up to date now.--DanielDimow||Speak to me. 06:27, 27 January 2012 (PST)

Changes

A lot has changed and there's no info anywhere. If someone wants to spend time figuring out how everything works, please do it. I'm not going to do it. --Icon-Finland.png sampo555 | Talk 03:48, 30 January 2012 (PST)

Me neither, they don't give a fuck about us (Wiki), we don't give a fuck about them, am I right? --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 05:11, 30 January 2012 (PST)
Foolin around. I say, admins really expect wiki to be up-to-date if they don't give a shit about it? Just curious, I'd say they'd just want to remove it :| ||||||Khebit TC| 08:45, 31 January 2012 (PST)

LMAO they've been "underwhelmed" since eRep beta... at least give us something new we /haven't/ heard of... like how they were trying to pay off their debts to the space monkeys who lent them money to begin with. Icon-USA.pngIcon-Taiwan.pngIcon-China.pngIcon-Australia.png- Jameson L. Tai talkUberEditor 23:47, 31 January 2012 (PST)
This is the lamest excuse I've ever seen. Ever. If they are "overwhelmed", why don't hire new Game Moderators, or it's just nobody wants to be one (I wouldn't be surprised if it was the truth)? --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 03:47, 1 February 2012 (PST)
Just make a notice, we won't update any info on changes until we get some information previously on the changes or even better, questions and extentions added, if they want, they'll remove it. I just don't give a shit anymore. -- Icon-Norway.png Mikhail Alexander | Talk 06:26, 4 February 2012 (PST)

Block of Dark Wolf of Balkan

Dark Wolf of Balkan has contacted me about his wiki block. He says he's sorry and made a mistake. Should we unban him? --Icon-Finland.png sampo555 | Talk 10:28, 31 January 2012 (PST)

I'd give him another chance. --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 03:37, 1 February 2012 (PST)
What was he banned for? -- Icon-Norway.png Mikhail Alexander | Talk 06:25, 4 February 2012 (PST)
You could check his contributions, but wait, admin was so "smart" to delete old revisions, sooo... --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 03:29, 5 February 2012 (PST)
He was banned either for vandalism or other things. I'm not taking the risk, nope. -- Icon-Norway.png Mikhail Alexander | Talk 03:49, 5 February 2012 (PST)

Timeline

Well, in Spain we're having a babyboom, and someone suggested we could improve the Spanish articles of the wiki. The think is a guy (Kojie) told me to ask you (a.k.k. Sysops/Mods/Wathever) if you could install this template to create timelines of Congress, wars, presidents and all that stuff. As far as I know he knows wiki coding so I'd say he won't blow anything up ;)

Well, that's it, thanks in advance :·)

||||||Khebit TC| 14:04, 31 January 2012 (PST)

I'd love for Admins to install stuff... but every time I ask for something to be installed I get LOL'ed at. I hope the same doesn't happen to you, but I also wouldn't hold my breath. Icon-USA.pngIcon-Taiwan.pngIcon-China.pngIcon-Australia.png- Jameson L. Tai talkUberEditor 23:48, 31 January 2012 (PST)
I guess it's this, and I see it requires Perl, but... why the hell I give a damn, since "Wiki Engineers" most likely won't give a damn about installing it (it would be great, but huh)? --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 03:41, 1 February 2012 (PST)

Hi!

The wiki page of Portugal in Portuguese has got an error on section #16, and it prevents the page from loading correctly.

Is it possible to delete the page, or reset it?
I've already created a backup of all the other information on the page, in order to re-make it :)

Retirement

As the title says I've decided to leave the wiki. I haven't cared about wiki too much in the last few months and my edits have been pretty random. The main reason behind this decision is the lack of support from eRepublik Team. The wiki is laggy and has bugs everywhere. Image thumbnails have been returning errors for over a year and basic parsers get the wiki to time out the requests making long pages completely unaccesible.

We also haven't got any information about any new changes in last few months. I don't know how the eRepublik Team thinks we can keep the wiki updated if we have to dig each piece of information ourselves. Or maybe they think that they don't need the wiki at all. But after seeing comments like this I know that they really need the wiki - and I wonder when they understand it too.

Goodbye to everyone and have fun with the wiki! --Icon-Finland.png sampo555 | Talk 05:44, 18 February 2012 (PST)

Good luck in your eFinish life out of the wiki. As you, I haven't done pretty much anything in the wiki since many, many months, and as for me admins can GTFO if they thing we can easily keep the wiki updated. And well, if they don't want a Wiki they can feel free to remove it - I'm sure they don't give a fuck about the years of history that are kept here (or maybe they don't want new players to realize eR now < V1 :|).
Anyway, I have to say thanks for all your work in the wiki; this would be a horrible mess if you hadn't been controling this. Thank you! ||||||Khebit TC| 07:46, 18 February 2012 (PST)
Santirub dropped me a link, so I logged in just to write this post. Sampo, you've been always a great guy and have always done a great work. Even if I wasn't an active editor, I still was around at #wiki and could see your work. I understand your demotivation but I hope that you will remain in eRepublik independently of the Wiki. Also, thank you for your work and good luck! --Icon-Poland.png Caroline au Marymont|Talk to me. 11:04, 18 February 2012 (PST)
I can understand your frustration mate, I also have it but I can't just let go my 2 years worth of editing.

Enjoy your career and life in Finland, they're very lucky to have you. -- Icon-Norway.png Mikhail Alexander | Talk 16:56, 18 February 2012 (PST)
I've been thinking of leaving the Wiki for some time, but the reason I'm not leaving/cannot leave is the same as above.
BTW. I don't understand - admins need the Wiki, but don't give a fuck about it? Well, that makes ABSOLUTELY no sense, but that's the way eRebuglik ladministration works apparently. --Icon-Poland.png Grzechooo drop a line 06:29, 19 February 2012 (PST)
