De Kolta vanishing bird cage

There's two articles on the same subject that need to be merged. I should probably do it myself, but it's likely that I mess things up instead :) These are the ones: http://geniimagazine.com/wiki/index.php/Vanishing_Bird_Cage http://geniimagazine.com/wiki/index.php/Vanishing_Birdcage --TStone 19:08, 17 February 2009 (EST)

Annoying Cite Bug

I just added an article on the Multiplying Bottles, and almost lost all the text due to some bug in the Cite function. Don't know if you are the one to tell, but I guess you know better than me whom to report to.

This is the function I mean: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cite/Cite.php which Brad apparantly added last year, according to the MagicPedia Development page.

The error message, in full, was:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function wfloadextensionmessages() in /home/geniimag/public_html/wiki/extensions/Cite/Cite_body.php on line 116

Fortunately, my text was saved in the browser cache, so I could rescue it. For now, until the bug is fixed, I've replaced the "ref"s with (n) and a numbered list in the article. --TStone 20:30, 17 February 2009 (EST)

Good idea. Will do.
