VAMWorld 2.0

Nice. When you find a well-struck 21-S with silky luster, you buy it. The spot on the lower reverse bugs me, but it's otherwise a nice looking coin.

I have them. I posted it on the BST board. I haven't done much with them due to wrapping up the migration and the ANA show, but now I can spend time getting everything worked up and getting people their grades and fees.

I've used this process a couple of times. It really cleans up the page. Here's an example: http://ec2-13-58-222-16.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com/wiki/1903-P_VAM-5 Once the pics are uploaded, the rest it typing in the info and updating the photo names for the corresponding VAM. If the main pickups...

My "to do" list includes adding a template for new listings to the new wiki. Until then, this is the best way to add a page: 1. Go to the 1878 VAM 9 page. It defines lots of sections and uses more Mediawiki features than the other pages. 2. Go into edit mode and copy all of the markup for the page t...

I will look into this Wednesday. I changed the "from" address for notifications from my personal one to a "no reply" address, and the AWS mail server might have choked on that.

78-S did marriage charts seem to be missing http://ec2-13-58-222-16.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com/wiki/1878-S_Die_Marriage_Chart Custom objects, widgets, doo-dads, and such like the one that was there didn't get transferred. Likewise for the VAMs by date, which is one reason you see a simple tabl...

So what did you determine to be the problem? Logically, I wouldn't think the external linking parser would cause a problem as it was on at the old VW and all worked fine with that platform. This platform seems to be better and more than capable to have this option turned on. Thoughts?.......Andrew ...

Attriburion pages are now dead on my end. Something wrong?

Back up and running.

Back up as of 4:45 CDT.

I'll have to fix it tonight (probably by 5:00 CDT). This might have to do with my attempt at enabling inlining external image links last night.

I had an interesting conversation with David McCarthy (numismatist at Kagin's, ANA Numismatist of the Year for 2018) on Saturday about this and other interesting long nock stuff that's been in the news.

Here's the crude diagram I ended up drawing for myself at a late night hotel coin-lookin'-at session with John R and Ash that finally put me in the "26 EDS was first" camp.

Yeah, that's a mighty nice medal. JK had people asking him for it on Saturday, still. It's hard for pictures to do the relief and detail justice.

It was a really good meat-n-greet. We were sitting far enough in the back of the restaurant that we were probably where they dumped the ash from the furnaces at the mint.

This is a feature of the framework. It gives you a chance to edit message or delete one you realize you'll regret having sent.

I haven't seen that before.

Il turn it on layer this weekend after I'm home from the ANA show.

For external images, I will turn these on provided the inline external images on any given VAM page is not a full resolution image. A 4Kx4K inline image will significantly slow down page loads, which we want to be fast. Have a smaller image that you click through to get to the high resolution image.

I imagine so. Google spider bots have been crawling the old VAMWorld for a long time. They have to learn the new wiki. Meanwhile, there is a search tool within the new wiki that should work as well as Wikipedia's.
