PS3 Developer wiki:Current events

This "Release Note" is a general overview what has been both changed and improved in the latest maintenance for both PS3 Developer wiki and PS4 Developer Wiki, which got maintained between 05^th January and 11^th January 2019. This maintenance work is still in process so this means that some improvements are still in work which can take a few hours/days longer (especially for PS4 Developer Wiki) but this overview will kept updated when some work is finished etc. If you find any uncommon Errors - especially when they didn't appeared before the maintenance - then feel free to add them at the Talk page.

General

• Both wikis where moved to newer and faster servers with ...
  • More Bandwith
  • More Capacity (although the old server had already enough space)
  • https:// enabled (SSL is forced now)
  • MediaWiki getting updated to the latest Version
  • And boy we have a new <favicon> :P

• New Features for both wikis
  • Administrators can now Mass Delete multiple Sites
  • UserCredentials and ChangeContentModel are now available
  • ConfirmAccounts is now available (for Bureaucrats only) but the future will see if we will keep this system
    • Sending the Passwords to given E-Mail Addresses now works as well
  • There is now a Chat available (but there is some work needed with the User Rights Management, which will be only done when there is some activity and interest in this Chat-Room)
  • Parser Profiling for each Edit made (more interesting for Admin and Roxanne)

• To Do
  • We plan to bring back the (daily) "Backup Function"
  • "Downloads" Section keeps closed
  • Fixing WhosOnline

PS3 Developer wiki

• New Features
  • With the newer and faster Hardware, the PS2 Classics Emulator Compatibility List has been fully restored to it's normal status where everyone can add/edit their Game Titles without any Error Outputs as before
    • Previous, you was forced to edit each Template for each Letter separately but those are now obsolete and deleted
  • Templates are getting updated nearly immediately after a edit, so both registered and un-registered Users will see the same Content (this was very problematic, as you can see here)
    • But if this will happen again Administrators and higher can Clear the Cache for each Page
  • Template:Navbox subgroup has been fixed to avoid Problems with editing Articles within Templates, who uses this Template due to the new MediaWiki update

• To Do
  • Removing the "Downloads" section by replacing it with the "Backup"-Function, when available
  • (Maybe) Some work is needed with Defective Pages or Files etc. but it seems that after the update from MediaWiki, it needs to check those at first at the background
  • Creating/Editing various Sites such as: Community Portal, Copyrights and Terms of Service
  • News needs to be updated regulary, maybe with results from PSX-Place.com

PS4 Developer wiki

• New Features
  • The PS4 Version from the PS2 Classics Emulator Compatibility List showed less problems compared to the PS3 Version, so there is no fix needed
  • Templates are getting updated nearly immediately after a edit, so both registered and un-registered Users will see the same Content (this was less a problem for PS4 Developer Wiki but it has now the same speed like on PS3 Developer Wiki)
    • But if this will happen again Administrators and higher can Clear the Cache for each Page
  • Template:Navbox subgroup has been fixed to avoid Problems with editing Articles within Templates, who uses this Template due to the new MediaWiki update

• To Do
  • Removing the "Downloads" section by replacing it with the "Backup"-Function, when available
  • (Maybe) Some work is needed with Defective Pages or Files etc. but it seems that after the update from MediaWiki, it needs to check those at first at the background
