[[File:Flag_of_the_Netherlands.svg|150px|thumb|left|This a .SVG file]]
: Hmm, ok. First of all: Hitchwiki is linked to wikimedia commons. That means, you can just use any file uploaded to wikimedia commons here. And that is also the reason for your error message: If you upload a file, that is also uploaded to wikimedia commons, you would replace it locally. This is fine, you can do that. It doesn't make much sense to upload the same file again, though.
: It doesn't really matter wether a browser supports svg. The wiki renders them to png pr jpg anyway. But it can render them in a much better quality, no matter which size they will have. So, in general, SVG is always better than PNG or JPG, but not always possible.
: I think bandwith is not so much of an issue nowadays. All modern browsers support on-the-fly-compression anyway, so it will probably not make any difference at all. --[[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]] 21:18, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

On the right side sucks, BIG time...
And while I'm writing this, the table with foreign characters shows as a series of "charinsert" tags, possibly because it's missing a final '}' [[User:Prino|Prino]] ([[User talk:Prino|talk]]) 20:52, 1 October 2012 (CEST)
:And the colour of the links, a horrible blue also stinks. Why was this change required, what was wrong with the old design? [[User:Prino|Prino]] ([[User talk:Prino|talk]]) 22:03, 1 October 2012 (CEST)
::And 9 cm of grey screen on either side of the text on a 23" monitor is also really useful. [[User:Prino|Prino]] ([[User talk:Prino|talk]]) 11:56, 2 October 2012 (CEST)
:I like Mikael's new design but the old Monobook one is useful indeed. So go to [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering]] and choose MonoBook. That's what I just did, there are still some tidbits not working but I'll fix them in [[MediaWiki:Monobook.css]].
:Charinsert is broken because the extension doesn't work anymore with MediaWiki 1.19. Will try to fix that as well today. [[User:Guaka|guaka]] ([[User talk:Guaka|talk]]) 12:05, 2 October 2012 (CEST)
== Bug ==
Hey guys - having trouble adding places? It gives an error message and then you can't add anything Anyone else experiencing this problem? 15th November 2016.
All templates are out of order, because they have a "<nowiki>{{ #</nowiki>" at their beginning in the whole wiki. -[[User:GeorgDerReisende|GeorgDerReisende]] ([[User talk:GeorgDerReisende|talk]]) 09:51, 4 October 2012 (CEST)
: Thanks for noting. We know about this bug, but as far as I know, it only affect the Isin-Template? A quick Check on [[Germany]] which has a lot of templates shows me that most of them work fine. Please let us know if you know of any specific template that is broken as well --[[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]] ([[User talk:MrTweek|talk]]) 09:58, 4 October 2012 (CEST)
: many templates which I use for the motorways are broken: {{ramp}} {{junction}} {{gas}} {{rest}} {{very good}} {{good}}, look at {{Ade|1}} --[[User:GeorgDerReisende|GeorgDerReisende]] ([[User talk:GeorgDerReisende|talk]]) 14:44, 8 October 2012 (CEST)
* I don't know about the templates (except IsIn) but the all the links to Trashwiki aren't in the toolbow anymore, but at the end of the page... I speak about the french version (exemple: [http://hitchwiki.org/fr/Prague], at the end of the page). For the english version, they just disappeared... Even if they are still in the editing page. --[[User:Klodreamer|Klodreamer]] ([[User talk:Klodreamer|talk]]) 18:34, 9 October 2012 (CEST)
* It seems to me, that for all pictures, which have been uploaded before October, the original files have been gone. That lead to the above problem, that my templates don't run any more. --[[User:GeorgDerReisende|GeorgDerReisende]] ([[User talk:GeorgDerReisende|talk]]) 17:55, 15 October 2012 (CEST)
: I just re-imported them, so most images should work again. Please let me know, if there are still a lot missing. If there are only a few missing, we can just upload them again manually. --[[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]]<sup>([[User_talk:MrTweek|talk]])</sup> 04:32, 28 October 2012 (CET)
* I'm already missing some symbols: {{rest}} {{average}} {{bad}} {{senseless}}, the logo don't show up, in the German wiki also the template ''gut'' has no picture. --[[User:GeorgDerReisende|GeorgDerReisende]] ([[User talk:GeorgDerReisende|talk]]) 16:06, 3 November 2012 (CET)
== new bug ==
In the German part of this wiki actually I can't make edits, I always gets the answer: "Es ist ein Datenbankabfragefehler aufgetreten. Dies könnte auf einen Fehler in der Software hindeuten." --[[User:GeorgDerReisende|GeorgDerReisende]] ([[User talk:GeorgDerReisende|talk]]) 09:12, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
== Trustroots advertisement ==
In my opinion the advertisement for Trustroots does not need to be here for years, mainly because Hitchwiki could (should!) behave like a proper commercial free, independent wiki, without its own agenda. The advertisement can repel potential users from Hitchwiki. Online hospex is not the same as hitch-hiking either and certainly not all hitch-hikers are interested in such service. --[[User:Fverhart|Fverhart]] ([[User talk:Fverhart|talk]]) 23:13, 21 July 2016 (CEST)
