This noticeboard is a location to discuss and coordinate administrative tasks for the Battlestar Wiki.
It is our hope that this place can serve as a location for administrators to coordinate their efforts on the maintenance tasks of the Wiki (it's not ALL fun and games), as well as a spot for our contributors to be able to bring things to the attention of the admins if something needs to be done. Need a protected page edited? An article or picture deleted? Admins will watchlist this page so that your request won't get lost in the shuffle.

Wiki speed?
Is it just me, or is the Wiki faster now that we've upgraded to MW 1.12? -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 02:32, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- Not just you. I noticed it. I was watiing for a normal user to notice. :) But oh well. Shane (T - C - E) 04:30, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- What, I'm not normal enough for you? :P -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 04:38, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- I think we'll get an answer to that next week, when the S4 premiere has aired. We also have memcached now, which'll help improve performance too. What's the status on APC? --Catrope(Talk to me or e-mail me) 11:11, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- For the record, this 'normal user' has certainly noticed the faster wiki. :) Veepz 16:09, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- I usually try to be an optimist, but I'm afraid we're going to get crushed. Hopefully we'll be able to at least hold up enough to enable viewing with the first episode page locked. --Steelviper 16:27, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- Well, if we lock down the articles before airing, we should do well. The only reason we crashed last time was because some schmuck with the initials of Joe Beaudoin had neglected to lock editing on the "Razor" page... Frakwit. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 16:45, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- It is pretty zippy. Nice work. We'll still be slow, but would it help if we don't allow editing at all anywhere in the wiki during the air times (as opposed to only the episode pages)? And thanks for your check-in, Veepz.--Spencerian 22:09, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- It's really the major articles that cause the problem... basically, when ten or more people try to submit edits AND people start calling up information from that same article, the mysql pipeline gets clogged because the server is trying to determine if there are edit conflicts, generate diffs, and all that behind-the-scenes work. Like last time, many people tried to edit and submit edits to the "Razor" article, and because of my failure to lock it down, the webserver grinded to a halt. It was only after I locked the article, the article on Cain, Kendra, and other related stuff that the site was usable again. (And note that the Forum worked very smoothly during this as well.) So... if it gets really bad even after w lock all the major articles, then we lock everything down. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 00:59, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
