* InterSciWiki
Something happened, I don't know what, it could be switching to the new metawiki platform, maybe something else but google is definitely not caching any of our new pages correctly. My only new client in a while is getting screwed because his page isn't being found. [http://72.14.209.104/search?source=ig&hl=en&q=cache%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.centiare.com%2FDirectory%3ALaw_Firm_of_James_Novak&btnG=Google+Search This link] pulls up the cached version of his page and gives an error message that was never on centiare before. "failed to derive URL prefix for timeline API codes" I think this message might be key to finding the culprit. Helping people create exposure is the only reason centiare really exists and right now it isn't doing that very well, at all. My fledgling business is at stake. What should we do?

Math Biz

Hi Greg,

Do you think there's any chance you'll be updating the math parser, whatever it is, any time soon? I'd like to keep MyWikiBiz as my main work wiki and I've been trying to fix all the problems with MathJax or whatever it is, but it just doesn't look doable anymore. Here's how one of my math sections looks on three different wikis:

  • MyWikiBiz
http://mywikibiz.com/Directory:Jon_Awbrey/Differential_Logic_and_Dynamic_Systems_2.0#Terminological_Interlude
  • InterSciWiki
http://intersci.ss.uci.edu/wiki/index.php/Differential_Logic_and_Dynamic_Systems_2.0#Terminological_Interlude
  • Wikiversity
https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/User:JonAwbrey/Sandbox

Aside from the overall readability issues, there's problems with underlining and failure to distinguish serif and sans serif characters that I use for a critical math distinction.

Frankly, there is zero chance that I would personally update the math parser, because I'm not technically inclined. The last time we had a major overhaul to the platform was in 2014. That took an outside contractor to execute, and the cost was around $900. I am just guessing that a math parser update would potentially set off a domino effect of requiring an update to the Mediawiki root platform, and thus I could be "in" for another $1,000-ish cost. Your most popular page, Logical graph, got 62 hits from around the globe in the past month. For 2 hits a day, I really can't justify the potential budget outlay. Is there any way you would commit to splitting the cost and working with me to find an appropriate contractor? - MyWikiBiz (talk) 16:50, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
