Wiki Link Blacklist

I'm attempting to update the Survivor (Mish Mash Game) page, and it's bouncing me on a link to a zetaboard where a game was played. How do I get this whitelisted? This page is somewhat dusty and cobwebby IMO.

The link, for reference, is http://w11.zetaboards.com/Survivor_Two_World/index/

I could edit the page just fine. Make sure you're logged in properly and click the "edit" tab at the top of the page.

I edit just fine, it's when I hit "submit" that it bounces the link. It's very specific about why.

Try now (I can't test because all my edits are auto-whitelisted).

I would like to complain that I can't just link images from imgur to the wiki. (for instance on my avatars page)

Either that, or that I can't edit the whitelist to include it. How does that work?

You should upload images to the wiki that you want to link.

Alright. I have been, I guess I will just continue to.

Can I link to images from imgur though if I don't want to upload them all? It's still not on the whitelist.

It is not possible to display remotely hosted (even on-forum) images on our wiki (or most MediaWiki installs), no.

Yeah, but I can't even have a URL to there because it's blacklisted/not whitelisted.

I'm having the same problem that Xalxe had, as I can't link back to games I modded and played on Midnight TCG. It kinda sucks for meta purposes. Do you need anything specific to fix the problem?

Links offsite need to be whitelisted before they can be put on the wiki - PM Flay about it.

http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?tit ... -whitelist is probably a better bet, since any wiki sysop can add to the whitelist, and I'm on VLA.
