First to type on your user:talk page, what an honor. When it all seems like too much, as I'm sure it must, I've left something here that I hope you might find amusing. Cjl 20:56, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Templates / Barnraising

Do you know any way to bulk transfer templates from wiki to wiki? If no faster method is known, I've parsed a list of OLPC wiki templates (many will be applicable with minimal modifications) and placed it in User:Cjl/Sandbox. This page can facilite multi-window copy/paste review and transfer of templates. Cjl 01:50, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

That'd probably be worthwhile. I've been cleaning things up as I go, but it would be faster to just copy... --Walter 01:54, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

I transferred some heavily-used ones manually using multi-window copy/paste. We need to recruit some more sophisticated wiki-help to get things like plug-ins and extensions synched up so that (for instance, "templates with parser function", e.g. Template:GoogleTrans-en) transfer over smoothly. I pinged SJ about it, but he's busy. Maybe one of the wiki-admins are savvy enough, it's a bit over my head. I'm going quiet for a while, on the road, back in a week or two.

Thanks. I'll try recruit a wiki admin!! Safe travels. --Walter 17:48, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
