Move "Marker" (reason: disambiguation-page coming up)
Marker, to Marker (for writing) or Marker (pen).--Links to 3 articles (and i can change that, 'after the fact').--Please make that move, thanks.--See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marker. 2001:2020:31B:8F3A:C973:54DE:1774:107 (talk) 00:26, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- How about Marker pen to match English Wikipedia? -- Auntof6 (talk) 00:31, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- "Marker (for writing)", is sort of where i am at.--To me, a "Pen" is first and foremost a ballpoint pen.--"Marker (pen)", no longer has my support.--My (poor) number two choice, i guess will be "Marker pen".--And yeah, you are so right in pointing out that option; En-wiki is often right (but the jury is out, on what the case might be in regard to what is simple.) 2001:2020:31B:8F3A:C973:54DE:1774:107 (talk) 01:45, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- Marker (pen), okay.
Marker (for writing).--My view above, has been changed somewhat - by the arguments below. 2001:2020:31D:B98F:296B:B9E:7506:8672 (talk) 09:41, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

- Looking at the other languages. their options seem to be Marker, marker pen and Felt-tip pen. The "(for writing)" is inaccurate as they are also for drawing and coloring. Writing may be their secondary use actually with art based uses being primary. If we are including "pen", I would suggest doing it without the parenthesis.

- Most forms of writing implements can be used for writing and for illustration. Even brushes have been used for prose. Macdonald-ross (talk) 08:33, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
- Marker pen. Please redirect. Thanks. 2001:2020:331:E4EB:D8A6:74F8:27AE:BB5F (talk) 14:03, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
Huggle
How do I install Huggle, and is there Global Huggle? CocoaSugar ( 🥥) 16:02, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
- I think a good alternative is to use SWViewer incase huggle isn't here. RiggedMint 19:26, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, but I can't access SWVeiwer because they said I needed a global rollback. How do I install it? CocoaSugar ( 🥥) 15:46, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Mushroomi!, as you don't have rollback on a project yet, you won't be able to use SWViewer until you get rollback, either on this wiki or another. You are still able to use Huggle on this wiki, without needing rollback. The instructions for installing Huggle are on m:Huggle/Download. --Ferien (talk) 22:34, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
