<div>Since sev will probably be the only one to read the rest of the mail, I'd like to start with a question to the team: last time I updated the screenshots on the wiki I noticed that the thumbnails are not updated. This is for example visible on the following page</div><div><a href="http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/User_Manual/Running_and_Using_ScummVM#Adding_a_game">http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/User_Manual/Running_and_Using_ScummVM#Adding_a_game</a></div><div>The screenshots (when you click on the thumbnail) are from version 0.13.0 but the thumbnails are from an older version (e.g. the Load button is missing). The thumbnails are created automatically when adding an image to the wiki, but apparently they are not updated automatically.</div><div><br></div><div>The only relevant info I found on google is that the line</div><div>$wgHashedUploadDirectory = false;</div><div>might be uncommented in LocalSettings.php , which means (among other things) that the thumbnails are cached and that the cached thumbnails need to be deleted in order for them to be updated. I suppose there is no way for me to do this and only somebody with access to the server on which the wiki resides can do it? Or does somebody have more information on how to force an update of the thumbnails on the wiki?</div><div><div><br></div></div><div><br></div><div>Now let's answer the mail from sev.</div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px;"><br></span></font></div><div><div>Le 13 juil. 09 à 20:08, Eugene Sandulenko a écrit :</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">On Mon, 13 Jul 2009 18:52:52 +0100</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">"Thierry Crozat (Yahoo!

Actually I wanted also to look at the wiki a bit more globally. It makes no sense imho to have duplicate content in the manual / platform / game pages. Therefore I wanted to have a look at this and try to make a proposal on what content we should have in the manual, in the platform pages and in the game pages (e.g. installation on a specific platform, controls, compatibility, etc.). Then we can have links between the different sections. Currently there seems to be no rules and we don't have the same content on all the game pages or all the platform pages.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div></body></html>
