Known Site Issues & Fixes
Welcome to the MoA–TSG Lab. The wiki is the bench. The work is Metrology of the Abstract. Adopt the tools or leave them on the rack — either way, the need doesn't wait.
- Lab Note: A redlink is not a failure. It identifies Calibration Debt—work waiting to be measured, mapped, and calibrated.

CYCLE Calibration position Status — Active Maintenance
This page is a conceptual instrument under Permanent Beta. It declares a real calibration position, not a finished product waiting to ship. Checking continues; an edit is only required when evidence demands it. Stage: Seed to Fruit. Feedback welcome — especially clarity, failure modes, and calibration gaps. Use discussion or Contribute. |
Known Site Issues & Fixes
Purpose: Document how this project records and manages technical bugs, quirks, parser issues, template failures, extension configuration problems, and other infrastructure-specific issues.
This page explains the process.
The Talk page is the official issue and report log.

Purpose
This page defines how technical issues are handled for this wiki.
Technical issues include:
- Template failures
- Parser or Lua issues
- Semantic MediaWiki / Cargo configuration problems
- Namespace-specific behavior
- Extension limitations
- Infrastructure-specific quirks
- Other technical issues unique to this wiki
The goal is to ensure each issue is documented once, investigated once, and resolved without rediscovering the same problem repeatedly.
Recording Model
Technical issue tracking follows a simple separation of responsibilities.
- This page documents the maintenance process.
- Talk:Known Site Issues & Fixes is the official issue register, investigation log, discussion thread, testing history, failed-attempt record, and resolution history.
No separate Calibration Log or report subpages should be created for technical issues.
Talk provides:
- chronological history
- threaded discussion
- reply capability
- investigation records
- implementation notes
- successful and failed attempts
- final resolution
This keeps the maintenance process simple while preserving complete technical history.
What belongs here
Technical issues specific to this wiki, including:
- Template behavior
- Parser behavior
- Namespace problems
- Extension configuration
- Infrastructure maintenance
- Technical implementation issues
What does not belong here
- Content calibration findings
- Use the page Talk page or that page's Calibration Log.
- Governance decisions
- Conceptual incompleteness
- General MediaWiki documentation
- If the answer is simply "read the MediaWiki manual," it does not belong here.
Reporting a Technical Issue
When a technical issue is discovered:
- Create a new section on Talk:Known Site Issues & Fixes.
- Describe the observed behavior.
- Document investigation.
- Record both successful and failed attempts.
- Update the discussion as work progresses.
- Mark the issue resolved when complete.
The Talk page serves as the permanent maintenance record.
Guiding Principles
- Record issues once.
- Keep investigation attached to the issue.
- Preserve failed attempts.
- Avoid duplicate reports.
- Keep process separate from discussion.
- Let Talk serve as the technical maintenance history.

Open Calibration Items
- Monitor whether Talk-only issue tracking continues to scale effectively.
- Revisit only if technical issue volume makes additional indexing necessary.

Page Transparency & Calibration
- Calibration Log & Decision Records (via Talk Page) — This page uses Talk-only calibration tracking. Full history of reviews, version changes, calibration decisions, and any governance reasoning behind structural decisions all live on the same Talk page, per Calibration Log: When to Create One and Decision Records: Governance Memory. Not every Calibration Log entry is a Decision Record — scan the Talk page's headings for entries specifically marked as decisions; the link itself being active only confirms this page has calibration history, not that a formal decision was ever recorded.
- View Current Page History — Complete edit history.
This page is under continuous calibration in line with the Permanent Beta principle.
Public Discussion Welcome
Questions, suggestions, feedback, disagreement, and proposed improvements are welcome on the Talk page.
Light rules:
- Prefer evidence and concrete examples over slogans.
- Apply Diagnostic Inversion Test when criticizing — the same standard to this page that you would apply elsewhere.
- Distinguish observation from conclusion.
- Calibration entries and Decision Records are maintenance records; public discussion belongs in ordinary Talk threads.
- This framework remains in Permanent Beta. Better calibration is always in scope.

Calibration Dependencies
Pages this page relies on as load-bearing dependencies: Nonconformance Reporting Procedure • Page Structure Calibration Checklist If incorrect, edit the `depends_on` field in Admin Page Status — do not edit this section directly, it is auto-generated.
Calibration References
This page is calibrated against the following core standards and reference materials:
- The Sovereign Games Framework — Overall framework philosophy and operating principles
- Permanent Beta — Core maintenance and continuous improvement standard
- Reference Standards — Principles for traceable, confirmed standards
- Calibrating Conceptual Instruments — Methodology for evaluating and refining pages
- Civilizational Traceability Hierarchy — How standards should connect to reality across levels
- Diagnostic Inversion Test — Mandatory self-application standard
- Reality Game — Foundational reality-alignment tool
- Reality Override Game — Standing discipline against protecting an existing model rather than updating it
- Observable Behavior Rule — Standing principle that diagnostics evaluate observable actions, mechanisms, and consequences, not internal motive, belief, or intent
- One-Way Nature of the Sovereign Games — Anti-capture design principles
- The Royal Cubit Civilization (Strategy) — Long-term civilizational vision and metrology metaphor
- Conceptual Instruments — Overall direction and metrology metaphor
- Breadcrumb Philosophy — Standing discipline for making unresolved questions and provisional decisions explicit
- Calibration Dependencies: Standards and Process — Rule that visible and hidden dependency lists must match, and that dependencies describe genuine reliance
Page Construction & Maintenance References
How we construct, maintain, and utilize each page as a self-admin control panel.
- Distributed Instrumentation — the architectural principle behind why this page (and every page) carries its own live instrumentation, rather than relying on a separate central dashboard.
- Page Structure Calibration Checklist — the Step 0 structural pass every page should pass before content calibration begins; this page's own structure should be checkable against it.
- Template:New Page Seed — the seed template this page's basic structure was built from.
- Calibration Log: When to Create One — the decision procedure this page's own Talk-only vs. dedicated-log status was decided against.
- Framework Features Reference — maintains consistency and traceability across the framework's structural features while avoiding unnecessary maintenance overhead; consult before introducing a new structural pattern this page might otherwise duplicate.
Calibration Procedure
In development. See Calibration Procedure for current status. No formal step-by-step procedure exists yet beyond the practices demonstrated across individual pages developed during the initial creation of this project.
