🚀 Wiki Update!
Hey, Stationeers!
The wiki has received a major overhaul as you may or may not see. Here's what changed and where we're heading:
| What | Before | Now |
|---|---|---|
| MediaWiki | 1.30 (2017) | 1.43 LTS (latest) |
| PHP | 5.x | 8.3 |
| Database | MySQL 5.7 on bare metal | MySQL 8.0 in Docker |
| Hosting | Old Debian 9 (2017) BareMetal server | Docker stack on Oracle Cloud (ARM64), Traefik reverse proxy, ratelimits & middlewares |
| Skin | Pivot | Citizen — modern, dark mode, mobile-friendly |
| Editing | Anyone could edit anonymously which lead to spam, edit chaos and bots | Account required — request one at Special:RequestAccount, any existing user can approve you |
| Security | Open registration, Google Analytics tracking | Approval-based accounts, no third-party tracking (for now atleast - might change this later to use Google Analytics again |
What's the same
- All pages, images, and edit history have been preserved, nothing was lost in the migration
- The old Pivot skin is still available if you prefer it (change it in your preferences)
User account cleanup
| Who | Count removed |
|---|---|
| Spam domain accounts | 1883 |
| Users with 0 edits + inactive 3+yr | 603 |
All other users are kept - this alone reduces total users by roughly 60% without affecting active users - if you ever made a contribution, your account will still be active.
New: User accounts need to get approved
From now onwards, new user accounts need to be approved. Any existing user can approve users - this should allow the community to approve legit people easily while keeping spammers out. The wiki texts recommend asking for approval on the Stationeers Discord - or asking a friend who already has access, if applicable.
New Admin
