|
uh, can someone remond me how i search through the code of all mw extensions on github?
|
|
2017-11-01 15:59:43
|
<Zppix>
|
DanielK_WMDE: isnt it the mw/ext repo
|
|
2017-11-01 15:59:45

<Zppix>
|
?
|
|
2017-11-01 16:00:05
|
<addshore>
|
@DanielK_WMDE: just search under the Wikimedia org
|
|
2017-11-01 16:00:47
|
<addshore>
|
Unless you want ones outside the org too, then just search on Github!

<addshore>
|
kolbert: you should probably file a bug in phabricator for that one!
|
|
2017-11-01 16:02:04
|
<kolbert>
|
Alright! thanks
|
|
2017-11-01 16:02:06

<CFisch_WMDE>
|
kolbert: hmm looks like some dependencies are not loaded correctly
|
|
2017-11-01 16:02:08

<CFisch_WMDE>
|
yeah

Soo again nothing official on the agenda. Hope everyone got the time right today ^^

Why is drastic change as removing temporary and user tables buried as a footnote to server decommission? I understand not many people use it, but not many people use webservice either.
|
|
2017-11-01 16:06:33
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
Dispenser: Do you have a link? I am not involved there but could have a look who to ask..
|
|
2017-11-01 16:07:15
|
<DanielK_WMDE>
|
Zppix: me/ext just has submodules, that was my problem.
|
|
2017-11-01 16:07:25
|
<DanielK_WMDE>
|
addshore: yea, searching in the org instead of repos was the solution. thanks
|
|
2017-11-01 16:07:43

<Zppix>
|
DanielK_WMDE: oh i guess thats true :/

It was kind of mentioned in the mailing list, basically here are the new server types (2), they're each missing these x or y features. Servers labsdb1001 will be retired December.

Hi
|
|
2017-11-01 16:10:49
|
<Dispenser>
|
I'm partially aware why it was done, I just don't understand why it was kind of buried since many bytes were split about needing users databases to join to.
|
|
2017-11-01 16:10:55
|
<Zppix>
|
Aguyintobooks: hello
|
|
2017-11-01 16:11:37
|
<Aguyintobooks>
|
I have a question about the content translation tool, how difficult would it be to program it to flag words that are not in a definded range
|
|
2017-11-01 16:12:10
|
<addshore>
|
Dispenser: that question might be best directed at someone in #wikimedia-cloud
|
|
2017-11-01 16:12:34
|
<Aguyintobooks>
|
so if I was converting an english article into simple.wiki, it would tell me which words are not part of the simple english vocabulary
|
|
2017-11-01 16:12:36
|
<Dispenser>
|
Ok
|
|
2017-11-01 16:15:18
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
Aguyintobooks: I am not sure if there is something available as an official simple english vocabulary
|

hi legoktm
|
|
2017-11-01 16:16:12
|
<Aguyintobooks>
|
I could easily import a list of words, my question really is: is this a function it is capable of doing?
|
|
2017-11-01 16:18:06
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
Ok that seems to be question best addressed to someone from the dev team there

Content translation -> #mediawiki-i18n maybe.
|
|
2017-11-01 16:19:04
|
<andre__>
|
(though I'm not sure I understand Aguyintobooks' question and what a "defined range" is supposed to be)
|
|
2017-11-01 16:19:43
|
<Zppix>
|
andre__: i think he means like an array of words
|
|
2017-11-01 16:19:44
|
<Aguyintobooks>
|
defined range = list of 15000 common words plus common placenames
|
|
2017-11-01 16:20:33

|
Ah. Interesting one!

<CFisch_WMDE>
|
ah, nice
|
|
2017-11-01 16:27:31
|
<Aguyintobooks>
|
to clarify I would prefer to use the extended wordset which has more words, https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Basic_English_combined_wordlist plus common placenames
|

<zuzak>
|
as part of my perennial "I should do some dev work", is there a nice list of things that need doing that are still accessible to someone that doesn't do much mediawiki stuff very often?
|
|
2017-11-01 16:33:28
|
<bawolff>
|
zuzak: Yeah, we have an "easy" tag in phabricator for such tasks

zuzak, https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Annoying_little_bugs and what was already written ^
|
|
2017-11-01 16:35:11

<CFisch_WMDE>
|
zuzak: Look for task that are not already assigned to someone :-)
|
|
2017-11-01 16:35:11
|
<bawolff>
|
zuzak: If there's a particular area in which you're interested in, I may be able to narrow it down to something more specific
|
|
2017-11-01 16:35:42
|
<Zppix>
|
Zuzak i also am doing a python (sopel.chat) ircbot if you want to just get a feel for how wmf does code review, toolforge and etc just let me know (search tool-Zppixbot on phab)
|
|
2017-11-01 16:41:36
|
<zuzak>
|
I'll take a look :)

Is it out of scope for this meeting for me to beg for code review for https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/377775/ (trivial patch)?

oh so that is technical advice right addshore ? :D
|
|
2017-11-01 16:57:05
|
<addshore>
|
hashar: indeed!
|
|
2017-11-01 16:57:07
|
<hashar>
|
addshore: CFisch_WMDE maybe you could announce it on wikitech-l? That is the first time I hear about
|
|
2017-11-01 16:57:23
|
<hashar>
|
I have just found it out via the irc notification :]
|
|
2017-11-01 16:57:24
|
<Zppix>
|
hashar: it was
|
|
2017-11-01 16:57:28
|
<addshore>
|
hashar: I believe it has been in wikitech-l a fair bit!
|
|
2017-11-01 16:57:28
|
<hashar>
|
ahh
|
|
2017-11-01 16:57:33

Arent we all?
|
|
2017-11-01 16:58:30

<addshore>
|
Well, I think that just about wraps it up!
|
|
2017-11-01 16:58:34
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
but spread the word hashar ;-)
|
|
2017-11-01 16:59:29
|
<hashar>
|
hmm
|
|
2017-11-01 16:59:43

|
I can make Jenkins to advertise this as a hint whenever a CI build fails
|
|
2017-11-01 17:00:59
|
<addshore>
|
haha, that would be sneaky
|
|
2017-11-01 17:01:10
|
<CFisch_WMDE>
|
Jenkins "Hey I don't know what happened here, but just go and ask the guys at the Technical Advice IRC meeting. They will figure it out! (and merge your patches)"
|
|
2017-11-01 17:02:48
|
<hashar>
|
anyway that is a good initiative :]
|

addshore: Thanks :)
