Common Butler WAt my pace, there should be no more regular pages with discord link by today.
After that, I'll be moving to blogs.

I tested this in my sandbox, and all of them are blocked. There are still a lot of user pages with discord links, though.I have been given instructions about how to properly update our abuse filter for disallowed external links, so I have done so. I hope that it will work properly.
Nice.I have been given instructions about how to properly update our abuse filter for disallowed external links, so I have done so. I hope that it will work properly.
There should be nothing to worry about, we can clear them out in our spare time. At least there won't be any more new pages or blogs popping up with discord links.There are still a lot of user pages with discord links, though.
An old message wall page URL that isn’t in use anymore, I believe.I need some help with Message Wall Greeting:Apex PredatorX, which is for an account that redirects to @Apex_Predator_GX. What's it even for?

@Dereck03 Then delete it if you can.An old message wall page URL that isn’t in use anymore, I believe.
Uhm, I’m sure every old user has that message wall greeting section. I doubt deleting it is necessary.@Dereck03 Then delete it if you can.
Then remove the two discord links at the very least.Uhm, I’m sure every old user has that message wall greeting section. I doubt deleting it is necessary.
So i should undelete it?Uhm, I’m sure every old user has that message wall greeting section. I doubt deleting it is necessary.
I've done so.
I don't see any changes on the page or in your edits.
I thought this section was deleted with the update to the wiki back in 2020. Can I use it again?

Not that, I need you to delete https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Message_Wall_Greeting:Apex_PredatorX, if that's doable.

Not possible.
Then can either of you at least edit it?I thought this section was deleted with the update to the wiki back in 2020. Can I use it again?
No. It doesn't allow me to edit it.Then can either of you at least edit it?
For backward compatability, the script would also display a greeting stored in Message Wall Greeting:USERNAME (in case a newer one does not exist), as it was used on the legacy platform. However, editing that page is blocked by Fandom. When the owner of such a message wall opens their wall, they will see a warning and a button to move the code to the new appropriate location.
No. It doesn't allow me to edit it.
I can't edit either.
Okay, we have a serious problem on our hands.WallGreeting
WallGreeting is an extension created for Unified Community Platform wikis to add a greeting to a user's message wall. When the wall is viewed by its owner or by an admin, the script also shows a button to edit the greeting page. The greeting page for this script should be stored on a user...dev.fandom.com
@Dereck03 For now, I made a DPL showing the relevant links we still need to correct.

Is this really a “serious problem.” Those pages are relics of a bygone era that serve zero purpose to the wiki. There’s literally no point of organizing a project involving the busiest wiki staff + Fandom admin for something that doesn’t involve our operational pages; the effects of this won’t impact wiki quality at all me thinks.Okay, we have a serious problem on our hands.
@Antvasima @AKM sama @DontTalkDT @ImmortalDread The page https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Message_Wall_Greeting:Apex_PredatorX has links to both discordapp and discord, but due to the way Fandom is fundamentally coded, nobody can edit the page.
Apex switched usernames a while back.I need some help with Message Wall Greeting:Apex PredatorX, which is for an account that redirects to @Apex_Predator_GX. What's it even for?
@Antvasima @Dereck03
Preferably yes.

I'm just going to go through all the remaining user and file pages and replace all the discord links.I don't think that there are any relevant remaining pages though.
Please explain further.
That's strange, it started working properly again when I tested it a second time. Anyway, I finished clearing out File: links from my DPL, so only User: pages are left, which, worst-case scenario, is one more week of work before we can close this.
