 | Welcome to the TTSCpedia (beta)! This wiki is the successor to the FANDOM/Wikia version! You may create an account on the new wiki during the Public Beta stage and begin editing. Please see the to-do list here. Any content from the FANDOM/Wikia wiki will not be transferred automatically, such as pages, and accounts. That must be done manually by the end user, being you. |
 | Limited Feature Set Many TTSCpedia features are currently semi-broken due to regressions introduced with the MediaWiki upgrade. We hope to be fully operational again soon. The MonoBook skin has temporarily been set as the default skin due to Cali not being fully ported to the new version of MediaWiki. |

Template:TOCleft Welcome to WikiProject Transwiki, a WikProject for helping with the transwiki process outside of the Wikimedia family. This is done by explaining how to import and export articles, linking to help with MediaWiki software, prepping templates for use outside of Wikipedia, listing available resources (including editors willing to help), and much more.
For more information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProjects and Wikipedia:WikiProject best practices.
Main goals
Feel free to change these.
- Template "pack - a pack of commonly used templates that is pure wikicode and ready to be imported via xml file. We'll need to identify which templates should go into this basic pack.
- MediaWiki "pack"- similar to the template pack, a bunch of MediaWiki namespace pages that are formatted for general and easy use for most other wikis
- How to export- Expanding on the export/import guide, which so far is very minimal.
Useful files and templates
MediaWiki files
- /MediaWiki:Common.css - Click edit and select all text. Disregard appearance when viewed as a normal page. Should work on most installations of MediaWiki. Will import most of the css classes that Wikipedia uses (especially useful for wikitable classes). Last updated: April 17, 2008
- /MediaWiki:Common.js - Click edit and select all text. Disregard appearance when viewed as a normal page. Same as above, but for some common java script. Also includes useful bug fixes that might not be fixed in the current version of MediaWiki. Last updated: April 17, 2008
Templates
- These templates can normally be used as is
- Template:! - Vital for most other templates to work. Recommend full protection when used on other wikis.
- Template:!! - Same as above.
- Template:Clear - Not as vital, but still highly used.
- Template:Main
- Template:Tl
- The following templates have been converted to use pure-wiki code, which is often required for most MediaWiki wikis
- /Template:Infobox animanga/Header - Oct 18, 2007
- Template:Infobox animanga/Footer (works as is, since it's basically nothing more than
|}, to end the table) - /Template:Infobox animanga/Other
- /Template:Infobox animanga/Anime
- /Template:Infobox animanga/Manga
- /Template:Infobox animanga/Movie
- /Template:Japanese episode list
- /Template:Infobox VG - Nov 2, 2007
- /Template:Ambox
- /Template:Infobox Company
How to export
Do not use Special:Export, as it will only return 100 revisions at a time, and some of the other documented features do not currently work. Instead, use http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Export&pages=ARTICLE_NAME&history=1&action=submit.
Save the file as something.xml
Use a find/replace feature of a text editor and find all "</username>" and replace it with "@en.wikipedia.org</username>"
