For future reference, I found this under the following pages:
http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Template:Nav and it's weird translation page duplicate
http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Template:Nav/en

Good work finding it, so tiny you wouldn't notice it.

Also, don't mind the /en page anymore, did my best to don't use it anymore at all.

What about the <translate> tags? Do we remove those, or do we ask Tynan to get a script to make those invisible?

The translation plugin was scrapped, I guess toss it for now.

Pages also need to stop using the TNTN nav boxes since they're also part of the translation plugin which was removed.

^As he said.

About the translation system, there are better plugins requiring abit more work but relying ALOT less on scripts, making them totally efficient.
Will depend if it's needed ... or not.

Yeah, I'm beginning the long work of removing a lot of the TNTN stuff.

After I'm finished all that stuff, I'll add in some sample templates for pages so we can have a more consistent style for things.

Edit: I cleaned up a lot, and have started to standardize the infoboxes for articles. Animals, plants, and weapons should be mostly done and up-to-date. It'd be great if you could get that thumbnail plugin working though.

Thumbnail ain't a plug-in, it's part of the core.

Incoming main page update. You'll love it

Oh, that's actually kinda worse. Hope someone can figure out why it's broken.

Update hype though.

is it not worth starting from scratch and just copying the content over?

I don't know a lot about the back end stuff but it looks fairly well borked, idk if it's more work to fix it or re make it?
If you have any 2 of the following 3 things: Time, Interest, or Ability; Head on over to the RimWorld wiki and help improve/update it! http://rimworldwiki.com

I'll ask the localsettings file to Tynan and fix whatever is totally wrong or unoptimized. Guess those few years having fun at backend work are paying back finally.

I guess it's viable at this point, there's only 800-some articles (some of which are just translations of other articles, and a lot of which aren't used anymore).

I'd still rather try to get the pictures/thumbnails fixed and just continue improving. It's the only real roadblock at the moment since I've fixed a lot of pages relying on the translation plugin.

Got the same mediawiki version as used here, installed it and thumbnails work fine. It's just a problem in the configs, not a problem in mediawiki itself.

Don't worry, be happy !

I'd also try getting the translation plugin to start cooperating again.

As said,  that one fails miserably. Need a new proper one. Ain't top priority.

Does the official one not work? Maybe it's just a problem with the config, or we need to try another version.

That ain't the official,  it's just an extension as any other. Works the same way as Google trad.
The one I'm thinking about just add a language sidebar according to what was translated already manually.
