"By saving your changes, you agree to the terms of use for this wiki." Where are the terms of use of this wiki ? ^^

Good question :p I guess it is the WTFPL ? According to this page we can define an url or a footer text.

Edit: Ah, I see that the text isn't displayed parsed... I should probably install the Parsoid server as explained in the extension's page :/

Ok, now comments should be correctly parsed :) (I installed Parsoid :D)

Edit: It works \o/

I'm going with he flow ... Am'I discussing on the «discussion tab» of a page called SandBoard or is SanBoard a flow-talk page?

SandBoard is a flow-talk page ;) Admins can create pages like that through the Special:EnableFlow (although I wouldn't use it much as it can disturb users)

Edit: Be carefull with that special page, because if the page already exists, it will be archived ^^'

Et c'est multilingue. Je vois «éditer», «répondre» «il y a une heure» ... \o/

Easy as following the flow... loving it

But cannot modify back, can I?

Yes, you can modify your comments by clicking on the three dots on the right !

For me, the only issue I have is that we cannot preview before posting our message :'(

I wanted to answer anonymously, but wiki didn't allowed it,

"You must confirm your email address before editing pages. Please set and validate your email address through your user preferences."

Yet, the button says 'Reply Anonymously'

Is this an option that can be set/unset?

I like the fact that we can just type instead of changing the page :)

We are legion !

I'm afraid we are not. But we think and try hard, which I feel is better.

Ah, I changed the permissions to allow anonymous people to edit pages, and it seems to work !

However, this means that anonymous could edit other pages on the wiki. I'm not sure if this is want we want ? Note that there is a captcha anti-spam thing to prevent spammers to spam ;)

Anonymous changing of pages may be a bit overkill indeed :/ But I do want people to easily be able to give feedback...

• starts singing Queen's I Want It All*

Well, Wikipedia allows anonymous guys to edit pages, so we can always give it a try :)

Ooh ö I DO like trying out stuff ö And, I guess, if we get spam or wathever we can just set it back to no anonymous editting :)

I'm for!

Looks like I am not receiving any notification from the wiki when a page gets modified. Any idea what that can be?

First, for the Flow's notifications, you must change the notification behaviour in your preferences ;) It works for me, and I can even see the content of the messages in the mail :D

For the weird behaviour of the pages, when a page gets modified and you don't go on the page, you won't receive any mail notifications until you visit the page again.

As said on each notification mail:

There will be no other notifications in case of further activity unless you visit this page while logged in. You could also reset the notification flags for all your watched pages on your watchlist.

Ah, also check at the bottom of your preferences that "E-mail me when a page or a file of my watchlist is changed" is enabled !

I'm not sure to understand this behaviour for the page change notifications.

Does that mean that if you don't read one notification and/or don't go to the page for a reason or another you won't receive any future notification for this page ?

If the answer is yes, what's the purpose of email notifications if you have to go back on a page while logged in to continue to get them ?

That's a bit strange for me :/

Is it a configurable behaviour ?

There is a discussion there on mediawiki, and there is a task pending since 2011 here...

I agree that this behaviour is absurd ^^' but apparently MediaWiki devs don't seem to be in a hurry for fixing this :(

Edit: To answer your question : No, it isn't configurable as far as I know...

I don't think it's absurd. If HgO edits a page, Valérie doesn't know what exactly has changed until she visits the page (unless the edit is very well detailed but this never happens). So when she receives an email, all it says is "The page has been changed". If she doesn't go to see the page, it's useless to send her other emails saying the exact same thing, it's just redundant. Valérie will see the changes once she logs in anyway, and if she sees only 1 change or 10 changes, it makes no difference.

If I understand the message well, the issue is that if I don't want to read a notification and check the changes one time because, for example, I don't have the time to this time, I will not receive any further notification for that page even if someone else has modified it.

Maybe I'm wrong, but this could explain why I didn't received notifications for some changes on certain pages in a while...

So this behaviour is probably OK if you are a hardcore wiki editor who verifies any change and/or never delete a modification notification from his/her mailbox... but I'm afraid I'm not one of those guys/gals ;)

Just to say that I agree with what Fred said :D This should be at least an user option...
