2018-07-11 13:28:35 <Niridya> Do you have news about this task : https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T191452 ?
2018-07-11 13:33:45 <Reedy> It can probably go ahead now
2018-07-11 13:45:36 <Niridya> You mean that TemplateStyles will be deployed in a short time ?
2018-07-11 13:46:19 <Reedy> It can be, not sure if it will
2018-07-11 13:46:27 <Reedy> Needs someone to get it into swat etc
2018-07-11 13:46:44 <Niridya> What is Swat ?
2018-07-11 14:04:37 <Stryn> Niridya: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/SWAT_deploys
2018-07-11 14:15:37 <Niridya> So, Swat is a team of MediaWiki developers and we can contact them to submit idead or bug ?
2018-07-11 14:23:36 <Deskana> Niridya: Posting a polite question on the task is normally the best way to get answers about a task.
2018-07-11 14:24:52 <Niridya> Deskana you don't think my question was polite ? (it's possiby because I rarely speak in english) O:3 O:3
2018-07-11 14:25:21 <Deskana> Niridya: Oh, no, not at all! Your question was polite. :-)
2018-07-11 14:25:57 <Niridya> Oh, you sais a question "on the task", you mean on Phabricator ?

2018-07-11 14:27:37 <addshore> =]
2018-07-11 14:27:45 <Niridya> ;)
2018-07-11 15:01:04 <addshore> Hi hi Amir1
2018-07-11 15:01:11 <addshore> It's time!
2018-07-11 15:01:33 <Amir1> Hello, Welcome to Technical advice IRC meeting, me and addshore are your host today and wish you a pleasant flight
2018-07-11 15:01:42 <addshore> Wheee
2018-07-11 15:02:45 <DanielK_WMDE_> flight? can i have some tomatoe juice, then?
2018-07-11 15:03:19 <Niridya> Hi ! Do you have news about this task : https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T191452 ?
2018-07-11 15:03:29 <addshore> DanielK_WMDE_: sorry, strictly a no totamoe juice flight, but we do have tomato juice!
2018-07-11 15:03:33 <Amir1> DanielK_WMDE_: 15 eurors, If you are member of "I broke Wikipedia" club, you get discount
2018-07-11 15:03:50 <Amir1> Niridya: checking
2018-07-11 15:04:17 <DanielK_WMDE_> :P
2018-07-11 15:04:57 <addshore> Niridya: looking at the ticket it looks like it is still blocked
2018-07-11 15:05:03 <Niridya> You made a very good job for Global preferences ! That's very useful !
2018-07-11 15:05:19 <Amir1> Niridya: The Remex is now enabled everywhere. It's unblocked since the last week
2018-07-11 15:05:20 <Niridya> addshore and do you know why is it blocked ?!
2018-07-11 15:05:36 <Amir1> addshore: Remex is deployed everywhere now
2018-07-11 15:05:56 <Niridya> Thank you too for Remex, but the task is about TemplateStyle ;)
2018-07-11 15:06:10 <revi> not seeking for an advice but thanks (never enough to repeat) to those who made GlobalPreferences possible
2018-07-11 15:06:25 <revi> you guys saved my hours setting prefs on every wikis
2018-07-11 15:06:50 <Amir1> Niridya: Deploying TemplateStyles is (was) blocked on deploying a new system for parsing called Remex
2018-07-11 15:06:59 <Amir1> the blocker is gone now
2018-07-11 15:07:27 <Reedy> [14:33:19] <Reedy> It can probably go ahead now
2018-07-11 15:07:27 <Reedy> ;)
2018-07-11 15:07:34 <Niridya> Amir1 Okey, thank you for your answer ! ;)
2018-07-11 15:07:35 <Niridya> And why is the HTML error pag still called LintErrors, why don't you switch to RemexErrors ?
2018-07-11 15:08:14 <Amir1> revi: Yeah, It was a great work made by Community Tech including (but not limited to) Niharika, musikanimal, samwilson
2018-07-11 15:08:36 <Amir1> and several others I can't rememebr
2018-07-11 15:08:45 <revi> sends love via the network
2018-07-11 15:09:04 <legoktm> Niridya: LintErrors is more broad than just ones related to the tidy/remex deployment
2018-07-11 15:09:10 <Amir1> Niridya: The old parser library was called Tidy, The lint errors are more general
2018-07-11 15:09:33 <Niridya> Okey, and what means "Lint" ?
2018-07-11 15:09:58 <Amir1> basically only the high-priority ones are related to Tidy->Remex migration
2018-07-11 15:10:06 <legoktm> Niridya: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/lint#Verb
2018-07-11 15:10:13 <Reedy> https://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/lint
2018-07-11 15:10:48 <Niridya> Oh ! Thank you a lot !
2018-07-11 15:10:52 <Amir1> Niridya: In Persian, we translated it "hidden syntax issues" which is not very correct but close
2018-07-11 15:11:20 <addshore> morning legoktm :)
2018-07-11 15:11:23 <Niridya> I think I never gond to Persian Wikipédia ;( ;(
2018-07-11 15:11:44 <legoktm> morning addshore :)
2018-07-11 15:11:52 <Amir1> A very few people did :D
2018-07-11 15:11:55 <Niridya> I got an idea : it would be very useful to protect descriptions on Flow pages
2018-07-11 15:12:45 <Amir1> Niridya: There is an ticket already for that: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T113902
2018-07-11 15:13:10 <Amir1> It hopefully will be picked up in foreseeable future
2018-07-11 15:14:09 <revi> Flow is somewhat messed extension
2018-07-11 15:14:14 <revi> from admin perspective :P
2018-07-11 15:19:34 <Niridya> On the front page of Wikipedia https://www.wikipedia.org/ there is a list of Wikipedias by number of articles. But between the number and the word "articles", there are 3 spaces
2018-07-11 15:19:57 <Niridya> And it is not typographically correct :b :b
2018-07-11 15:20:26 <Reedy> Numbers are hard
2018-07-11 15:20:41 <Reedy> Should it be 1,000,000? Should it be 1.000.000? Should it be something else?
2018-07-11 15:21:19 <addshore> Reedy: wikidata can do all of that for you ;)
2018-07-11 15:21:28 <Reedy> I don't need it doing for me
2018-07-11 15:21:33 <Reedy> MW can format numbers
2018-07-11 15:22:29 <Niridya> My problem is not about numbers : there is "1 000 000+ articles
2018-07-11 15:26:43 <addshore> Is > are?
2018-07-11 15:26:56 <Amir1> Niridya: you can bring this issue up to the discovery team who are responsible for maintaining it, there might be some good explanation.
2018-07-11 15:27:29 <Niridya> Amir1 You have a link to contact them ?
2018-07-11 15:27:51 <Amir1> The best approach is to make a phabricator ticket and add them
2018-07-11 15:27:54 <Nemo_bis> The portals should really go back to some reliable technology which knows how to do its thing.
2018-07-11 15:28:21 <Niridya7> Okey,I willdo this !Thank you ! ;)
2018-07-11 15:28:56 <Amir1> Niridya: make sure you add Jan Drewniak there, he knows the best about this
2018-07-11 15:29:11 <Deskana> Nemo_bis: Nice joke!
2018-07-11 15:30:13 <Deskana> A MediaWiki page containing HTML which was then pulled by an old unmaintained PHP script and dumped into a web page is not "reliable technology".
2018-07-11 15:31:49 <addshore> Deskana: that's how they work? >.>
2018-07-11 15:32:11 <Amir1> That was how it used to work
2018-07-11 15:35:41 <addshore> 25 mins left!
2018-07-11 15:36:11 <Deskana> addshore: Yep: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Www.wikipedia.org_template
2018-07-11 15:36:29 <Reedy> Why haven't we deleted them?
2018-07-11 15:37:13 <Niridya7> I created this task : https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T199337
2018-07-11 15:46:16 <revi> quick Q: Is it possible to see how many users signed up to the wiki during given timeframe?
2018-07-11 15:46:35 <revi> (no SUL autocreate)
2018-07-11 15:46:50 <Reedy> Vaguely
2018-07-11 15:46:56 <addshore> Vaguely
2018-07-11 15:47:05 <Reedy> without autocreate is harder as you're going to have to join on the logging table or something I guess
2018-07-11 15:47:23 <revi> hmm
2018-07-11 15:47:35 <revi> I think we have some community tool to calculate template transclusion
2018-07-11 15:47:48 <addshore> Reedy: perhaps the mediwiki_history data set in Hadoop has the answer?
2018-07-11 15:47:58 <Reedy> God knows
2018-07-11 15:48:18 <revi> Since kowiki puts welcome template to local signup'ed user's talk page, I think I may be able to get estimate of new registration via template transclusion numbers
2018-07-11 15:48:29 <revi> not sure if this would be an acceptable strategy?
2018-07-11 15:49:02 <Nemo_bis> Do you need the data programmatically?
2018-07-11 15:49:16 <revi> well no, I just need some sort of average
2018-07-11 15:49:26 <revi> and just once
2018-07-11 15:49:32 <Nemo_bis> https://stats.wikimedia.org/v2/ has some numbers
2018-07-11 15:49:58 <Nemo_bis> https://stats.wikimedia.org/v2/#/ko.wikipedia.org/contributing/new-registered-users/normal|bar|2-Year~2016060100~2018071100|~total
2018-07-11 15:50:10 <revi> have no idea if that includes autocreate or not
2018-07-11 15:50:24 <Nemo_bis> Just click the link https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Newly_registered_user
2018-07-11 15:51:44 <revi> wonderful, thanks Nemo_bis
2018-07-11 15:52:37 <addshore> 8 mins remaining!!!
2018-07-11 15:52:54 <addshore> And then per the rules of the IRC help hour we will cease being useful!
2018-07-11 15:56:11 <Amir1> grabs the vodka
2018-07-11 15:58:44 <addshore> 2.....

2018-07-11 16:02:37 <addshore> (:
2018-07-11 16:06:36 <Niridya7> Thank you Amir1 and addshore!
2018-07-11 19:08:44 <stjn> I regularly come across "You ("[IP]") are issuing too many requests too quickly." on Phabricator if I open some tasks from search in new tab. Can anyone please say how long does this restriction last?
2018-07-11 19:09:17 <apergos> try doing one at a time, and it's going to be a little while before people can work out a better approach
2018-07-11 19:09:24 <apergos> sorry about that
2018-07-11 19:11:16 <paladox> it should come back after a minute i think/
2018-07-11 19:11:23 <stjn> I forget that it happens before it happens, unfortunately :-) Thanks.
