2016-01-26 09:52:13 <whym> apparently an intense blanking vandalism reduced ja.wikipedia's article count by several thousands two days ago
2016-01-26 09:52:41 <whym> the pages were fixed, but the count does not seem to restore.
2016-01-26 09:52:56 <whym> will it be fixed in the next monthly recalculation?
2016-01-26 11:58:11 <s24w> Is there in any source code to be download before starting contributing?
2016-01-26 12:00:28 <Base-w> s24w: what do you want to contribute to?
2016-01-26 12:01:25 <Base-w> ah you were saying something about gsoc in another room
2016-01-26 12:01:49 <Base-w> Nemo_bis: knows stuff about gsoc
2016-01-26 12:02:16 <s24w> yes
2016-01-26 12:02:21 <s24w> nobody replied there
2016-01-26 12:02:44 <s24w> I am just searching organizations to apply this summer
2016-01-26 12:03:20 <Base-w> have some patience, here are a lot of people who live in different timezones all over the world, some are having night or work time atm, so they cannot reply immediately
2016-01-26 12:04:19 <s24w> Ok. I take that.
2016-01-26 12:43:02 <Nemo_bis> omg GCI just ended and we already have gsoc wannabes knocking at our doors :)

2016-01-26 18:33:33 <andre__> There are multiple issues which are currently being investigated in #wikimedia-operations (if you want to watch)
2016-01-26 18:33:36 <Base-w> https://meta.wikimedia.org/ looks like wikimedia.org
2016-01-26 18:33:43 <andre__> Sorry for the hassle.
2016-01-26 18:33:43 <Vito> that's the end of the World

2016-01-26 18:41:54 <mpeel> Commons and Meta seem to be redirects to the WMF now?
2016-01-26 18:42:06 <Leah> mpeel: Bad deployment, being reverted currently.
2016-01-26 18:43:23 <mpeel> Leah: Impressively bad to take down several big projects!
2016-01-26 18:43:54 <Leah> mpeel: Someone futzed with wikimedia.org. Turns out there's quite a few things living there. ;-)
2016-01-26 18:44:22 <mpeel> Um ... yes, just a few.

2016-01-26 18:48:08 <jeblad> The domain is somehow wrong
2016-01-26 18:48:08 <sjoerddebruin> jeblad: thanks, captain obvious
2016-01-26 18:48:20 <Wiki13> lol
2016-01-26 18:48:25 <jeblad> I tell the nowiki community ;)
2016-01-26 18:48:27 <pnsrc> I don't know if it is the right place to ask, so sorry if it is off-topic. Is there any work to rewrite non-https external links to https links when they support it?
2016-01-26 18:48:27 <sjoerddebruin> 10 minutes and everything is okay again it seems

2016-01-26 18:50:43 <Leah> pnsrc: We can discuss in #mediawiki.
2016-01-26 19:17:08 <pajz> Already known that otrs-wiki.wikimedia.org seems to be down?

2016-01-27 05:20:48 <PovAddict> hi
2016-01-27 05:21:47 <PovAddict> I need to import tasks from a crappy custom ticket tracking system into Phabricator's Maniphest, and it seems you guys have experience with that from the Bugzilla migration :)
2016-01-27 05:23:20 <PovAddict> how did you manage to change the creation timestamp of tasks and comments in phab?
2016-01-27 05:24:11 <PovAddict> hmm
2016-01-27 05:24:32 <PovAddict> in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T12543 I see all comments are from bzimport and credited to the original user in the comment text itself... is there no way around that? :/
2016-01-27 05:26:41 <Matthew_> PovAddict: In that case, the user didn’t associate his account with his old bugzilla email.
2016-01-27 05:27:10 <PovAddict> oh, now I see the very last comment is attributed properly
2016-01-27 05:27:14 <Matthew_> Notice the bottom comment? We only migrated early last year.
2016-01-27 05:27:33 <PovAddict> at first I thought all comments were attributed to bzimport
2016-01-27 05:27:46 <PovAddict> because skimming is the best I can do at 2:20am
2016-01-27 05:27:54 <Matthew_> No. You picked an odd bug to look at. Hold on.
2016-01-27 05:27:58 <PovAddict> :)
2016-01-27 05:28:13 <PovAddict> I literally typed random numbers after a T
2016-01-27 05:28:34 <Matthew_> https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T69069 Here is one that was imported farily completely.
2016-01-27 05:28:57 <PovAddict> that looks pretty great :o
2016-01-27 05:29:24 <Matthew_> I wasn’t part of the migration, so I can’t offer any information byond that. My apologies.
2016-01-27 05:30:11 <PovAddict> any chance the scripts are somewhere public?
2016-01-27 05:30:31 <Matthew_> Probalby so. Let me look.
2016-01-27 05:35:20 <Matthew_> PovAddict: I believe it is in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/PHTO/browse/master/ , however; I’m not positive.
2016-01-27 05:35:29 <Matthew_> https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T259 was our migration task.
2016-01-27 05:35:43 <PovAddict> I saw T259 and a few of its blockers
2016-01-27 05:37:51 <Matthew_> Okay.
2016-01-27 05:38:32 <Matthew_> Again, I”m sorry I wasn’t involved in the migration and don’t know more.
2016-01-27 05:39:24 <Matthew_> Username “chasemp” appearrs to be the go-to person but he doesn’t appear to be on right now.
2016-01-27 05:41:53 <PovAddict> hm, migration date was Nov 22 2014?
2016-01-27 05:42:45 <Matthew_> Sounds about right.
2016-01-27 05:43:05 <PovAddict> then I'm not sure if https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T69069 proves much since most comments and changes were done after that :D
2016-01-27 05:46:02 <Matthew_> About there yes. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/11/24/welcome-to-phabricator-wikimedias-new-collaboration-platform/
2016-01-27 05:46:14 <PovAddict> but anyway
2016-01-27 05:46:18 <PovAddict> it seems y'all did do what I need to do
2016-01-27 05:47:52 <Matthew_> Yep.
2016-01-27 05:48:09 <Matthew_> Again, I don’t know too much. casemp will, but he is not on right now and I don’t know when he will return.
2016-01-27 05:48:27 <PovAddict> well, I don't know in what timezone he is but this is generally a bad time in most places :D
2016-01-27 05:48:34 <PovAddict> so that's expected
2016-01-27 05:50:35 <Matthew_> *chasemp
2016-01-27 05:50:36 <Matthew_> Yes.
2016-01-27 06:02:22 <PovAddict> I thought conduit had been modified to allow the bot to make changes it's not usually allowed to
2016-01-27 06:03:01 <PovAddict> looks like that's not the case, bugzilla_create.py uses conduit to create the task and then raw SQL to edit fields like the creation timestamp

2016-01-27 18:17:51 <ragesoss> tgr, anomie: I think there are still occasional errors when a user tries to do OAuth with a just-created account.
2016-01-27 18:18:33 <ragesoss> Unless there it was a different user with the same IP (possible, as it's a student in a Wiki Ed class), I think it happened to this user: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log/Happy2016
2016-01-27 18:19:04 <anomie> ragesoss: Can you be more specific than "occasional errors"?
2016-01-27 18:19:22 <ragesoss> "error":"mwoauthdatastore-access-token-not-found","message":"No approved grant was found for that authorization token."
2016-01-27 18:20:17 <anomie> ragesoss: Also, I note only mediawiki.org and test wikis are on wmf.11 at this point...
2016-01-27 18:20:26 <ragesoss> anomie: that's what breaks the mediawiki omniauth gem (which is the fault of that gem, for not handling the error better).
2016-01-27 18:20:33 <ragesoss> anomie: I don't think this is new.
2016-01-27 18:21:09 <ragesoss> it's just that I didn't have enough info to understand why my system occasioinally blew up during user login.
2016-01-27 18:21:55 <ragesoss> but we added some new debugging code to figure it out, and that's the message that I found this morning from the first failed login since the debugging was in place.
2016-01-27 18:21:57 <tgr> so it's like register on enwiki -> authorize OAuth on enwiki -> try an API request to enwiki -> mwoauthdatastore-access-token-not-found ?
2016-01-27 18:22:06 <ragesoss> tgr: right.
2016-01-27 18:22:35 <ragesoss> (We also added a useful error message telling the user to try again, so it looks like it worked on second try for that user.)
2016-01-27 18:23:18 <ragesoss> specifically, it's register on enwiki with a returntoquery that immediate takes the user to the authorize url.
2016-01-27 18:24:50 <ragesoss> https://dashboard.wikiedu.org/users/auth/mediawiki_signup
2016-01-27 18:25:35 <ragesoss> or for test.wikipedia: https://dashboard-testing.wikiedu.org/users/auth/mediawiki_signup
2016-01-27 18:27:25 <tgr> master-slave lag, maybe?
2016-01-27 18:27:38 <tgr> if the API request follows the authorization very closely
2016-01-27 18:29:52 <ragesoss> yeah, could be almost immediately if the user clicks quickly. Or pretty much immediately every time, if that routine fires before the user clicks Allow.
2016-01-27 18:30:27 <ragesoss> (that is, when going through the new account flow from our site)
2016-01-27 18:30:31 <tgr> how often does this happen, could you tell the difference immediately if it was fixed?
2016-01-27 18:30:54 <tgr> (immediately = in a few days)
2016-01-27 18:31:00 <ragesoss> yes.
2016-01-27 18:31:14 <ragesoss> happens several times a day, during this busy sign-up time.
2016-01-27 18:31:24 <tgr> cool, can you file a phab task for it?
2016-01-27 18:31:30 <ragesoss> will do.
2016-01-27 18:41:43 <csteipp> Nikerabbit: Do you have a link to the AbuseFilter surfacing work? One of the stewards was asking me about that recently.
2016-01-27 18:42:42 <Nikerabbit> csteipp: sure

2016-01-27 18:44:31 <hoo> Can we kill AbuseFilter altogether? *sigh*
2016-01-27 18:45:03 <Nikerabbit> hoo: I wouldn't oppose myself, but...
2016-01-27 18:46:27 <hoo> I know...
2016-01-27 18:46:39 <hoo> I wish I had the time to write an alternative and stuff
2016-01-27 18:49:01 <MatmaRex> eh, what's wrong with abusefilter?
2016-01-27 18:50:49 <Krenair> it has it's own language
2016-01-27 18:52:16 <Nemo_bis> it is tightly integrated with our editors

2016-01-27 20:26:21 <ori> depends; what's the problem?
2016-01-27 20:26:53 <doctaxon> I don't know how to upload a pdf-file to wikipedia

2016-01-27 20:28:01 <ori> do you have to use the API? can you use https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:UploadWizard ?
2016-01-27 20:28:41 <doctaxon> i got the error line: code badupload_file info {File upload param file is not a file upload; be sure to use multipart/form-data for your POST and include a filename in the Content-Disosition header

2016-01-27 20:29:39 <doctaxon> what is multipart/form-data?
2016-01-27 20:30:07 <MarkTraceur> doctaxon: A way to transmit data to our API. How are you uploading the file if not with that?
2016-01-27 20:30:40 <hoo> Why not just use Special:Upload
2016-01-27 20:31:32 <doctaxon> I cannot use Special:Upload because my connection is too slow for 100 MB file
2016-01-27 20:32:59 <doctaxon> MarkTraceur: I use it like stated in API:Upload: api.php?action=upload&filename=wta16.pdf&file=$contents&token=$token
2016-01-27 20:33:24 <MarkTraceur> doctaxon: In a GET request?

2016-01-27 20:35:49 <doctaxon> i am using the tcl framework
2016-01-27 20:36:06 <doctaxon> hallo hoo
2016-01-27 20:36:20 <MarkTraceur> doctaxon: Okay, look up how the framework supports multipart/form-data
2016-01-27 20:37:28 <doctaxon> I am not able to look up, didn't wrote the framework?
2016-01-27 20:37:40 <hoo> If you have pywikibot set up, you can use that. It's easy with
2016-01-27 20:37:49 <hoo> it

2016-01-27 20:42:22 <doctaxon> hoo: I had had pywikibot but the login data collided with the tcl framework. I couldn't run both tcl and pywikibot on tools.taxonbot

2016-01-27 20:45:34 <hoo> but I haven't set it up in a while, so I'm no help there
2016-01-27 20:48:33 <doctaxon> is there another way to upload a big file by a slow connection?
2016-01-27 20:49:17 <hoo> There are many, but I'm not aware of other easy ones
2016-01-27 20:49:31 <hoo> easier as pywikibot, that is
2016-01-27 20:50:56 <doctaxon> hoo: nicht unbedingt per Skript, sondern mit irgendwelchen Tools oder Specials oder was es da so gibt?
2016-01-27 20:54:02 <hoo> hm... commonist vllt.?
2016-01-27 20:54:18 <doctaxon> es geht nicht um commons
2016-01-27 20:54:22 <hoo> Gibt ein paar, aber mir fällt sonst nicht ein
2016-01-27 20:54:29 <doctaxon> das ding soll nach dewp
