- Return to the Maintenance Index
- As of 3-18-25
- Plans
- Revised extensions list
- Documentation (with pictures and examples) imported
- Numerous server-side automations
- Adoption of two dashboards for stronger internal monitoring:
- Netdata (Works perfectly! Customizing... 3-18)
- GoAccess (Also works perfectly! Even more customizing, Netdata is huge as is... 3-18)
- These modern monitoring tools are crazy good. Easy to access and use. However...
- Due to the way they expose sensitive server information they won't be publicly accessible.
- These help me keep track of resource hogs, identify traffic anomalies and more effectively assess incident reports (if and when).
- Synchronizing these with my BetterStack configuration (should) cover most ends in this regard. Surely there's more to be done...
- Fiddling with various SEO-oriented aspects -> GoogleSearchConsole
- Indexing! The site is now appropriately being crawled. (3-18)
- Sitemap accepted, robots happy, on-site adjustments to follow. (3-18<)
- Furtherance of server-sided security measures (we love the modern web)
- Inquiries to and conversations with...
- DigitalOcean - Particulars about metrics, extra firewall tweaks, load balancing, etc. Their docs are decent, their support actually answers.
- MediaWikifolks - MediaWiki 1.44, Parsoid status, Extension updates, Extension depreciation, ideal package & library versions, etc.
- Google - Rather, all site crawlers, the site's meta description, headers, so on and so forth. The Page Speeds tool is awesome!
- 3-21 notes
- Fixed incorrect certificate call at "www.kenshidb.wiki" which was returning 403 and a bad handshake warning. Revoked previously generated certificate for Netdata during proxy server testing, allowing for...
- Creation of redirect for "www.kenshidb.wiki" to appropriately present "https://kenshidb.wiki/w/Main_Page".
- In so doing fixed the Google listing for "www.kenshidb.wiki" which now correctly paths to the frontpage of the website and does not crawl as a 403.
- Created a collection of scripts for managing the dashboards, recording metrics & storing the logs (securely).
- Submitted a support ticket to DigitalOcean to inquire about a correct firewall configuration tunneling and cached-based connections will work along with regular traffic to the site.
Project:Updates not to be neglected -- I'll be organizing the Gadgets, Widgets, Modules & Extensions lists for that (ideally 3-23).
