:Oh, hi! Don't worry about that! Your contributions are really great! I always wanted to fill in missing descriptions but never had the time. :-\ Thanks a lot! --[[User:Ngng|Ngng]] ([[User talk:Ngng|talk]]) 21:22, 15 April 2019 (BST) | |||
== Wiki backups == | |||
Are regular backups of the wiki made? It would be a shame to lose all this information if something went wrong. There seem to be some information about backing up MediaWIki [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Backing_up_a_wiki here]. It would also be good to verify that any backups made can actually be restored properly :P. --[[User:Ratchet66|Ratchet66]] ([[User talk:Ratchet66|talk]]) 23:09, 17 August 2019 (BST) | |||
:Hello there! I do make backups occasionally, but I don't have any access to the wiki server, so my backup program uses the standard backup features [https://wiki.pcsx2.net/Special:Export for pages] and [https://wiki.pcsx2.net/Special:ListFiles images]. The real burden of backing up is on the wiki hosting service (and I could understand your possible skepticism, but I'm just a contributor like any). I can guarantee you though that I can restore my backup any time; after all this wiki was created on a totally different server and then transferred here by the means of such a backup. So rest assured that if the worst comes to the worst, most of the info will be safe and sound. Better yet, you can make your own backup, all you need is a program or a script of some sort for this. --[[User:Ngng|Ngng]] ([[User talk:Ngng|talk]]) 08:38, 18 August 2019 (BST) | |||
::That's great to hear! I might make my own backup as well, it can't hurt. --[[User:Ratchet66|Ratchet66]] ([[User talk:Ratchet66|talk]]) | |||
:I gotta warn you though. My program just finished download and it's huge. ~7K images/~13K pages with total size of ~2.2Gb, which took 1.5h to download, and one particular page refused to be exported with full history (unsurprisingly it's [[Complete List of Games]]), so I was oblige to code an exception in the process and export only the last revision of it. --[[User:Ngng|Ngng]] ([[User talk:Ngng|talk]]) 14:38, 18 August 2019 (BST) | |||
== Question == | |||
Im pretty sure this guy is a huge troll with malicious intent: https://wiki.pcsx2.net/Special:Contributions/Red_Tv. I don't know if I'm allowed to just go ahead and revert all of his changes but for the most part they're useless, made up, or irrelevant. Example: "Black has an issue of crashing when shooting enemies in the face". You're the only user I know that I've seen editing alot so I turn to you for guidance!

:It's been a long time since I played any PS2 game myself so it's not possible for me to tell if any new info added to the wiki is wrong. I don't even know about possible new features in PCSX2, I'm quite unfit as an administrator. It seems he wants to be thorough in adding small issues, some of them may not be correct or relevant because of his inexperience with the emulator. What's to gain in spreading misinformation on this wiki? It's just a waste of time for a troll in my opinion. If you have some of the games he added issues to, could you check them? If none of his issues are real, then I probably should remove them. --[[User:Ngng|Ngng]] ([[User talk:Ngng|talk]]) 10:49, 10 March 2020 (UTC) | |||
::Yeah, I'm a bit pessimistic at times when it comes to wiki's, I guess. The games I've reverted his changes on I've tested personally and found no issues, I'd probably find more if I go down the list, but in my small sample size he's been incorrect so far. I'll test more later on and let you know. Thanks! [[User:Optim|Optim]] ([[User talk:Optim|talk]]) 16:44, 10 March 2020 (UTC) | |||
Hello, I am not a troll i am just a guy who wanted to help improve PCSX2 Wiki | |||
So In addition of adding issue i find i also added issues from github | |||
The issue with the game "Black" was taken from PCSX2 GITHUB | |||
https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/issues/2884 | |||
According to the creator of the issue the game crashes when he shoots people heads | |||
And no other condition has been found to reproduce this glitch | |||
Pcsx2 team didnt close his issue so i thought it was legit. | |||
:Oh, Hi! Don't be discouraged, we just overreacted a little. Every little piece of help is appreciated and thank you for your contributions. Some of the github issues may not be real, but that's probably a price to pay for having others that are useful. Fake issues will eventually be removed by the people playing respective games. --[[User:Ngng|Ngng]] ([[User talk:Ngng|talk]]) 17:55, 23 March 2020 (UTC) | |||
