== Upload file problem (After mediawiki software 1.31/1.32 update) ==
Hey. Could you please fix this problem where none of us can upload a file to the website. After trying to upload a pic file several times (and including editing the filename a bit and changing directory to grab the file from), it didn't work and led to this Action Failed page with the message below:
<blockquote>'''Action failed'''
Jump to navigationJump to search
Could not open lock file for "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/8/8b/Model2Emulator-logo.jpg". Make sure your upload directory is configured correctly and your web server has permission to write to that directory. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:$wgUploadDirectory for more information.
Return to Main Page.</blockquote>
This issue seemed to occur after another admin, ITEM-3, updated this wiki's software from 1.26 or older to 1.31 or 1.32 on mid-February 2019. Inadvertently, it seems this has caused problems with file and image uploading processes here.
As you can see, the last file uploaded to here was over 2 months ago, at the end of January 2019: [[Special:ListFiles]] & [[Special:Log/upload]]. [[User:ObiKKa|ObiKKa]] ([[User talk:ObiKKa|talk]]) 17:00, 1 May 2019 (EDT)

== Password reset does not seem to work ==
Dear Jpx,
some time ago I created an account in here (Calindro).
Unfortunately, I forgot my password so I tried resetting it.
I already tried resetting the password several times via account name and via email ([email protected])
but I never receive any email.
Is there anything that could be done about it?
Sorry if this is the wrong way to contact you.
I was looking for the message board mentioned on the main page but couldn't find it.
I also searched for a contact email address or something like that.
So if this isn't the appropriate place, I'm very sorry!
Kind Regards
Calindro

== Inappropriate Pages and Changes to Wiki Pages ==
Jpx,
Please forgive if this isn't the way to report inappropriate behavior on this site.
I found some of the pages were edited to say things like (imagine the seven words you can't say on television).
I did change some of the pages back to their original content prior to the juvenile editing. If you were to check out the
contributions from the following people:
* taken from this site's user creation log page (sorry for the language).
You would see what they did and the risk of a minor stumbling upon those pages.
Thanks,
