DVD commentary filmographies?
Although the DVD commentaries are generally just the two Brothers Chaps, many times they are joined by friends and family and/or Matt will portray one of the dumb animal characters. The toon articles all identify who is present for the DVD version with a "Commentary by:" subheader, but is there a separate article tracking commentators? Something like Category:Filmography, Strong Bad Email By Name of Sender, or Fan Costumes#Costumes. If not this is something that I think would be a good addition to the wiki. -- Bleu Ninja

- Each DVD page (e.g. strongbad_email.exe Disc One) lists the commentators of each toon, but it might be interesting and helpful to have a centralized list of all of them. Ideally it should be formatted differently from the DVD articles (such as having separate sections for each character), or else it might be redundant.

May as well plug that I made DVD Commentary Speakers for this purpose. -- Bleu Ninja 19:47, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
Loading issues
I've been having some loading issues on both Chrome and Firefox with ad blockers off. Wolf O'Donnel 08:35, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
- The wiki tends to load slower when it receives more traffic. My guess is that more people are coming here to check if the Halloween toon/teaser is out. Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 03:45, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
Back glitch
Recently, on this wiki (and only this wiki), when I use the back button in Firefox, it instead counts as a new page load, meaning I get caught in an infinite loop if I do it enough. Why is this? RickTommy (edits) 22:23, 29 December 2021 (UTC)
- I've noticed this behavior too, though only in private windows, and there are some other wikis (and also some webcomics) that are affected. DEI

- The back function works as normal for me now, so this may have been an error on the part of the program. There was an update to Firefox between then and now, which may have fixed the issue. DEI

Version of MediaWiki installed is obsolete
This wiki's software has not been updated in 11 years. The version of MediaWiki that is installed is now obsolete. The version installed is 1.15.4. The latest version of MediaWiki is 1.37.1. Please update MediaWiki. It has not been updated in a very long time.--100.1.76.9 14:27, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
- Will this change any fancy wiki text formatting or will we be fine with how it looks and how it will looks?

I don't know about that, but version 1.15.4 of MediaWiki is already obsolete, so it's better to update it now. I don't know if it will affect its appearance, but update it since it hasn't been in a very long time.--100.1.76.9 01:40, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
- There's a bunch of custom stuff installed that may or may not work with the new version. I think the top-right links on the toons pages are generated by a special extension function, for example, so there's significant site functionality involved. Is there something in particular you need from a newer MediaWiki? Bobmath 08:46, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
Also, the protocol in use for this website is not secure as it is a normal HTTP protocol & not HTTPS in which the "S" stands for secure. I do not know if that custom stuff will work in a newer version of MediaWiki, but try it out. If it does not work, then you might need to update that stuff so that it will work with newer versions.--100.1.76.9 21:04, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- Yeah, the HTTPS-failure warning when I log in is... troubling. Not sure if this is related to MediaWiki or general hosting, though. -- Bleu Ninja

I think it is related to general hosting, but you do get that warning.--100.1.76.9 02:18, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
Diaper Sunrise
They just added a new short called Diaper Sunrise. It's about a minute long. Wolf O'Donnel 21:08, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
What should the next featured articles be?

What is up with all of the baby related toons lately? — Cy4nIsN0tB1u3 (Talk | contribs) 11:50, 7 April 2022 (UTC) (left unsigned)
- Other than parenting, which toons are you referring to? RickTommy (edits) 14:09, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
- She might be referring to Diaper Sunrise. - HoveringSombrero (talk) File:Shoulder shoomps.jpg
