| == How to edit variables in notification/ confirm email? == | |||
| Hi, I've found | |||
| * MediaWiki:Confirmemail_body | |||
| * MediaWiki:Createaccount-text | |||
| * MediaWiki:Enotif_body | |||
| are templates for email body. | |||
| However, I've found some vars in these template,such as | |||
| $1, $2, $WATCHINGUSERNAME, $PAGESUMMARY $PAGEMINOREDIT | |||
| and so on | |||
| How can I edit these variables to further costumize the email body? | |||
| Thanks so much! | |||
| --] (]) 15:48, 28 July 2014 (UTC) | |||
| :Those variables are passed from the process that calls that mailing function. By editing the system message we can change where and if the variables are included, but not that data that is passed to the variables. That would have to be changed in the application code via a software patch. I may be able to answer further if you can explain exactly what you want to accomplish (e.g. a before/after view). — ] <sup>]</sup> 18:07, 28 July 2014 (UTC) | |||

TPG Telecom
Hi, Could you take care of the edit summaries and diffs at TPG Telecom when you get time. The page has been semi'd but the history is cluttered with the trash left behind. I believe it qualifies to be removed under REVDEL#2. Thanks! NQ talk 13:37, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

Question
Hi Xaosflux, I saw that one of the applicants for administrator got about 65% approval and was still unsuccessful. Is there a certain percentage that a user needs? Johnsmith2116 (talk) 12:39, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
- There is not a specific rule, as it is not a vote. Typically, 70% is the low end of the mark, and 85% is the high end. The !votes are calculated in the tally numerically, however when judging the outcome not all !votes may have equal weighting. (e.g. "Oppose I don't like people who's usernames start with J" would appear in the tally, but would likely be given little to no weight towards the outcome.) — xaosflux 20:36, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
