Editing Dolphin's wiki

[mbc07]

For people having problems, do you still can't edit wiki pages?

I still can't edit wiki pages. There also is no place to enter my email in the account preferences.

I still can't edit pages as well.

I don't think it exists, or that even having email notifications for a wiki would be a good idea (imagine that on Wikipedia for example where random pages can get 50+ edits per day). You can hit the star at the top of pages to add them to your watchlist though, and then you can look at all the edits to pages on your watchlist ordered from the most recent to oldest here. Additionally, if anyone messages you on your talk page, it's made very obvious to you with a giant box above all pages that doesn't go away until you load your talk page at least once. So, you can't get emails about stuff happening on there, but it's not too hard to prioritize things if you really want to.

I wasn't sure if email options were intentionally disabled since my account permissions seem to be wrong. My Wikipedia account allows email notifications and I have little expierence with other Wikimeida projects so I compared them.

Can't edit the wiki aswell. Is this going to be fixed someday? I'd love to add reviews to some games ^^

How about this in the meantime. If anyone wants something added to the wiki, I can do it for you, with your username mentioned in the edit summary. I know that's not really a solution to the problem, but if you're only trying to submit formatted content like a video or a test entry, it's really easy for anyone to copy/paste that over.

Yeah I am having this issue too... it's unfortunate :/

Alright, although actually fixing the problem of not being able to edit the wiki should be done eventually.

For the Super Smash Bros. Brawl Wiki:

The "SDHC Cards" section is no longer accurate. It should be replaced with:
Support for Virtual SDHC cards [https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/8823] (4-32GiB in size) was added in 5.0-5044. See http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=74757.0 for help with creating a virtual SDHC card. The SDHC Extension 1.1[Bero] code [http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=65342.0] needs to be included in your GCT file found within sd.raw's \codes folder.

These issues are known to affect SD emulation and are more prominent when using a virtual SDHC card:

For the Wii Music wiki:
