Prepared a while ago, they are all needed or wanted. We also have a Blog namespace, we don't want these included in edit count too (I'm going to ask ShoutWiki about downloading the code for the extension as they made it) [[User:Solar Dragon|Solar Dragon]] 12:05, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

:The RSS extension is actually for a future version of MediaWiki that's still in development, so it can't be installed. I'm still working on installing some of the other complex extensions. One thing I wanted to note about the dismissable sitenotice extension was that I've done some of my own work on it and discovered a way that does not require you to increase the sitenotice count after editing it. So you guys won't ever need to touch [[MediaWiki:Sitenotice id]] ever again. :) --[[User:Jake|<span style="color:#008000;font-weight:bold;">Ja</span>]][[User_talk:Jake|<span style="color:#E58900;font-weight:bold;">ke</span>]] 13:22, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Just wondering how installing the extensions is coming along.

== Blog namespace ==
 
We have a [[Blog:Index|Blog namespace]]. Could you make this a namespace so it doesn't add to article count.

Test email function[edit]

Just testing the email function. The Solar Dragon 08:17, July 19, 2017 (EDT)

www.simpsonswiki.com disappeared[edit]

Dear Jake,
I've noticed that www.simpsonswiki.com "A" record is missing from the DNS. That breaks millions of bookmarks and links worldwide. Could you restore it? Thanks --2F13 (talk) 02:59, December 27, 2019 (EST)

Hello, thanks for letting me know about this. I have restored the A record for the www subdomain, and it should start working again as soon as DNS propegates. Thankfully, it is unlikely that many links were broken as we have always 301 redirected to the non-www domain. Thanks again! --Jake 10:46, December 27, 2019 (EST)
