[00:40:33] <_Danny_B_> you just moved it out from hardcoding but it still remains _the same_ level for ever [00:40:50] <_Danny_B_> no way to set which level you're adding [00:41:07] he can edit the MediaWiki:editsummaryheading article [00:41:18] same level for the whole wiki [00:41:22] <_Danny_B_> yes [00:41:32] <_Danny_B_> but that was not the desired behavior [00:41:40] *TimLaqua reads the bug again [00:42:07] It'd be handy if we could somehow specify a [00:42:07] different heading level for newly created sections (say, third-level) [00:42:15] <_Danny_B_> the deal is when you click + to add new section, it should let you to set the level [00:42:47] I'm confused - I thought that's what I just did [00:42:55] <_Danny_B_> so having summary, textarea and let's say pulldown with header levels [00:42:55] I was passing section=new to it [00:43:03] ah [00:43:14] that's not what he asked for [00:43:20] <_Danny_B_> so user can explicitly say which level of header is creating [00:43:26] <_Danny_B_> i believe it is [00:43:54] So you want me to reopen it? or wait for him/her to reopen it? [00:44:22] Or could you re-open w/ your comments? [00:44:56] <_Danny_B_> i can add my understanding of request and reopen it. however still what you've done is better than what was before [00:45:14] well, I had the same complaint he did [00:45:32] so I fixed it, looked for bugs that matched, and marked as fixed. [00:45:44] if you think he wants a dropdown, reopening is fine with me. [00:46:22] hopefully he/she will come back and let us know if it's fixed [00:46:42] Wouldn't that be the better route?

[00:57:02] <_Danny_B_> TimLaqua: well, i could add it as new bug, but i'd say it's better to keep it toghether since it's tightly related (in case the request was meant as you see it not as i do) [00:57:25] With a template, can I somehow prevent it to be rendered into it's own

? Say I have {{myTemp|foo}} and it only returns some text, I wan't to do it inline like "Hello, this is {{myTemp|foo}} and so on". [00:57:27] _Danny_B_, how will we know? [00:57:45] <_Danny_B_> VoiceOfAll: have no idea, although i'd really liked to since i'd really like to add couple missing semantic tags [00:58:09] I hate importing and seeing

[11:56:25] *Werdnum shrugs [12:08:27] <jeroenvrp> is it possible that you can expire cookies once? [12:08:41] <jeroenvrp> like some sort of cookie-reset [12:08:52] <Werdnum> erm, in mediawiki or in php generally? [12:08:59] <jeroenvrp> so to force all users to relogin right now [12:09:04] <jeroenvrp> Werdnum: mediawiki [12:09:50] <Werdnum> uh, don't think so [12:11:44] <jeroenvrp> so you can't say; all cookies are invalid and everyone must have a new cookie? [12:13:18] <Werdnum> not that I'm aware of [12:13:21] <Werdnum> why would you do that? [12:14:03] <jeroenvrp> Werdnum: I have deleted 2 users from the database and I want to make sure their cookie doesn't give them access anymore [12:14:10] <Werdnum> it won't/ [12:14:17] <jeroenvrp> ah ok [12:14:27] <jeroenvrp> because ut will check if the user exist? [12:14:41] <Werdnum> of course. [12:14:47] <Duesentrieb> jeroenvrp: deleting users is a very bad idea. [12:14:58] <jeroenvrp> Duesentrieb: and why is that [12:15:10] <Duesentrieb> jeroenvrp: because it breaks referential integrity of the database. [12:15:11] <Werdnum> because they're referenced as foreign keys through the database [12:15:19] <Duesentrieb> user records are referenced from logs, revision history, etc [12:15:24] <jeroenvrp> its a provate wiki [12:15:33] <jeroenvrp> private wiki [12:15:44] <jeroenvrp> anf those users may not have read access anymore [12:15:53] <Duesentrieb> doesn't matter [12:16:05] <Duesentrieb> your database is inconsistent now [12:16:10] <Duesentrieb> bad things may happen [12:16:16] <jeroenvrp> well how do I do prevent those users from reading [12:16:17] <Duesentrieb> they probably won't, but they may [12:17:16] <Duesentrieb> jeroenvrp: good question - the normal "block"-option doesn't apply to read access. the simple answer is: prevent them from logging in. that is, garble their password (and eamil!) in the database. [12:17:35] <Duesentrieb> mediawiki is not build for preventing read access. it shows in cases like this. [12:17:44] <jeroenvrp> Duesentrieb: ok, thats possible - allthough allready deleted the users [12:18:03] <Duesentrieb> well, you shouldn't [12:18:13] <jeroenvrp> what can go wrong [12:18:17] <Duesentrieb> the wiki will not explode, but you may get strange result on some special pages, etc [12:18:22] <Duesentrieb> maybe missing entries, even [12:18:34] <jeroenvrp> I checked that, but that is not the case [12:18:45] <jeroenvrp> they are still isted in the history [12:18:47] <Duesentrieb> jeroenvrp: you checked all special pages, in all possible modes? [12:18:57] <Duesentrieb> yes, in the history. [12:19:06] <Duesentrieb> as i said, the wiki will not explode. but your db is inconsistent now. [12:19:10] <jeroenvrp> they are still there [12:19:22] <jeroenvrp> oh well, I will remember that for the next time [12:20:03] <jeroenvrp> I also can still see the contributions for the deleted usersa [12:20:31] <Duesentrieb> a block-option to prevent locking would be usefull, though, for wikis on which anons don't have many rights... [12:20:51] <Werdnum> AAA [12:20:55] <Werdnum> more blocking options! [12:21:02] <Werdnum> blocking options make brion cry. [12:22:12] <jeroenvrp> oh well, I don't see any problems so far [12:22:26] <Werdnum> what do you mean "to prevent locking"? [12:22:58] <VoiceOfAll> heh [12:25:08] <Duesentrieb> Werdnum: damn typos. "prevent login" [12:25:43] <Duesentrieb> kind of like disabling an account (temporarily) [12:27:02] <jeroenvrp> Duesentrieb: yes that would be great idea [12:27:17] <jeroenvrp> there a lot of wikis that are not used as public wikis [12:27:24] <Duesentrieb> well, it's pointless for real wikis, where anons can edit [12:27:30] <Duesentrieb> that'S why it doesn't exist. [12:27:34] <jeroenvrp> yes of course [12:28:16] <Duesentrieb> but i have put it on my "when i'm bored" list [12:28:28] <jeroenvrp> but there are private wikis, for small groups [12:28:31] <Duesentrieb> (which i probably get around to in a couple of years) [12:28:50] <jeroenvrp> I admin 4 of those wikis [12:29:40] <Duesentrieb> write yourself a script that sets the user password and email to an empty string. that should do it. [12:30:14] <Duesentrieb> that will probably not invalidate running sessions, though, i think. [12:30:26] <jeroenvrp> Duesentrieb: yes, but one problem though - those users still have access when their cookie is not expired yet [12:31:16] <Duesentrieb> yep. you can probably also kill the "permanent cookie" thing by manipulating the db (not sure how). [12:31:26] <Duesentrieb> for the current session cookie... not sure how to go about that. [12:32:48] <Jack_Phoenix> Duesentrieb or VoiceOfAll: what should be done to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Inputbox ? Is it a copyvio or not? it uses content from meta, but since it's not a help: page...complicated thing. =/ [12:34:40] <Duesentrieb> Jack_Phoenix: huh? meta is GFDL. all but Help: on mediawiki.org is GFDL. no problem [12:34:50] <Jack_Phoenix> ah, thank you :) [12:34:53] <Duesentrieb> Jack_Phoenix: it'S the otehr way around: you can't import stuff from meta into the help namespace [12:35:50] <Ace_NoOne> are namespaces an appropriate method to create a separate section - e.g. to separate content for regular users (main ns) from instructions for developers ("Dev:" ns) [12:35:56] <Jack_Phoenix> so you can import stuff into extension namespace from Help: ns at meta...thanks for your help. :) [12:36:52] <Duesentrieb> Ace_NoOne: yes. [12:37:06] <MinuteElectron> Help namespace on MediaWiki.org is PD. [12:37:09] <Duesentrieb> Ace_NoOne: or use categories. which is more appropriate is up to you. [12:37:30] <Duesentrieb> MinuteElectron: yep. that's why you can't freely import *into* it. [12:37:33] <Ace_NoOne> Duesentrieb: got a source I could cite (e.g. a wiki that uses namespaces like this)? it'd help me resolve a dispute [12:37:41] <MinuteElectron> Duesentrieb: yeah. [12:38:02] <Duesentrieb> Ace_NoOne: mediawiki.org has the main namespace vs. Manual vs. Help [12:38:12] <Ace_NoOne> Duesentrieb: good point [12:38:26] <Duesentrieb> Help is for users. Manual is for people who run a wiki, and for developers. [12:38:44] <Duesentrieb> the main namespace is for... stuff. it's a mess, really. [12:38:54] <Jack_Phoenix> shush ;) [12:39:11] <Jack_Phoenix> There Is No Cabal - or mess. <g> [12:41:33] <Ace_NoOne> hah [12:43:04] <CIA-15> 03aaron * r25406 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/FlaggedRevs.php: [12:43:06] <CIA-15> *Fix var name typo [12:43:08] <CIA-15> *Make userpage requirement optional [12:43:12] <CIA-15> *Add optional time spacing requirements [12:48:40] <Werdnum> Duesentrieb: ew [12:48:46] <Werdnum> Duesentrieb: extra blocking flags suck [12:48:59] <Werdnum> Duesentrieb: also, I'm doing some blocking changes after my exams anyway [13:08:37] <Duesentrieb> Werdnum: the notion of "disabling" an account seems sensible though. it should be possible. [13:09:37] <Ace_NoOne> can I (as admin) somehow track which IP created a particular account [13:10:05] <Jack_Phoenix> Ace_NoOne: you should know... http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CheckUser ... [13:10:29] <Ace_NoOne> Jack_Phoenix: yes, but that's post-hoc now [13:11:02] <Ace_NoOne> i.e. that extension doesn't work retroactively, does it? [13:11:59] <Jack_Phoenix> worked for me, IIRC [13:12:04] <Ace_NoOne> cool, thanks [13:12:05] <Jack_Phoenix> when I checked JtV socks [13:12:27] <Ace_NoOne> JtV? [13:13:03] <Jack_Phoenix> Johnny the Vandal... [13:13:14] <Jack_Phoenix> I didn't have checkuser installed, installed it and got results [13:13:15] <Ace_NoOne> oh right [13:13:16] <Jack_Phoenix> simple :) [13:13:22] <Ace_NoOne> cheers Jack [13:13:28] <Jack_Phoenix> rar [13:15:09] <Jack_Phoenix> heya Tim :) [13:15:19] <TimStarling> hello [13:16:23] <Ace_NoOne> see, Jack_Phoenix, if you had waited just a bit longer with recommending that extension, you would have gained bonus points with TimStarling ;) [13:16:37] <Jack_Phoenix> :] [13:32:58] <TimStarling> why can't you put a block-level element inside an inline-level element? [13:33:01] <TimStarling> I want to [13:34:19] <Ace_NoOne> it's invalid [13:34:26] <alnokt0a> TimStarling, hello, is it set in stone that we cannot use commons from another wikis ? [13:34:30] <Ace_NoOne> what do you wanna do, TimStarling [13:34:43] <flyingparchment> i think he's asking _why_ it's invalid [13:34:51] <Ace_NoOne> because it's logical [13:34:55] <TimStarling> it is not [13:35:06] <TimStarling> you can embed anything you want inline in an MS word document [13:35:18] <TimStarling> why not in HTML? [13:35:29] <Ace_NoOne> please, don't tell me you're comparing logical HTML to MS Word [13:35:33] <TimStarling> alnokt0a: no [13:35:42] <TimStarling> Ace_NoOne: I'm saying that MS Word is better [13:35:49] <TimStarling> is that a problem? [13:35:57] <Ace_NoOne> hold on, I gotta jump out of the window for a second [13:35:58] <Jack_Phoenix> hah - take that Ace_NoOne ;P [13:36:02] <TimStarling> bye [13:36:09] <alnokt0a> TimStarling, good :) [13:36:21] <Ace_NoOne> TimStarling: seriously though, you could always use display: block; [13:36:47] <TimStarling> what, to make an inline element look like a block element? [13:37:00] <Ace_NoOne> act like one [13:37:26] <TimStarling> that would be fine if it wasn't the opposite to what I am talking about [13:37:37] <TimStarling> I want to make a block element flow with inline text [13:37:51] <TimStarling> except I don't want it to be a "block element" [13:38:02] <TimStarling> I want it to be an "element" because I don't understand the point of the whole distinction [13:38:21] <Ace_NoOne> could you give me a practical example of what you're trying to achieve [13:39:02] <Ace_NoOne> the distinction is kind of(!) like the distinction between paragraph and character formatting in Word [13:40:10] <TimStarling> not really [13:40:38] <TimStarling> it's about flow, not about formatting [13:40:38] <Ace_NoOne> yarly :P [13:40:43] <Ace_NoOne> well, yeah [13:40:53] <TimStarling> a block element generates a containing block [13:41:12] <Ace_NoOne> could you give me a practical example of what you're trying to achieve [13:41:15] <TimStarling> whereas an inline element flows from line to line, word-wrapped [13:41:47] <TimStarling> alright [13:41:52] <TimStarling> I have a video player [13:41:55] <TimStarling> it generates a block [13:42:07] <TimStarling> some poor wikipedians might want it to flow with text [13:42:22] <Ace_NoOne> use float? [13:42:27] <TimStarling> but they are screwed because it won't work [13:42:34] <TimStarling> float does not make something flow with text [13:42:38] <TimStarling> it makes text flow around it [13:42:42] <Ace_NoOne> what do you mean "flow with the text" [13:42:44] <TimStarling> don't you even understand HTML? [13:42:52] <Ace_NoOne> whoa easy boy [13:43:06] <TimStarling> I mean if I type "a <video> b c" then the video will be in between the a and the b, on the same line? [13:43:18] <Ace_NoOne> display: inline; does that [13:43:46] <TimStarling> hm, does it now? [13:43:46] <Ace_NoOne> though I can't imagine why you'd ever want that [13:44:07] <Ace_NoOne> <li style="display: inline;">I'm an inline element now</li> [13:45:17] <TimStarling> hehe [13:45:43] <TimStarling> that's all very well, except that the video doesn't generate a box anymore [13:45:54] <TimStarling> so its controls are all messed up, instead of being in a nice neat box [13:45:56] <Ace_NoOne> of course not - because it's an inline element [13:46:46] <TimStarling> why should there be any relationship between box generation and flow? [13:47:07] <Ace_NoOne> this should be discussed in #css [13:47:19] <TimStarling> uh huh [13:47:34] <TimStarling> I'd better kick myself then [13:47:45] <Ace_NoOne> that's not what I meant [13:47:52] <Ace_NoOne> I meant you'll get a better explanation there [13:48:06] <Ace_NoOne> because honestly, I'm not sure how to explain it [13:48:34] <TimStarling> you have failed in your mission as CSS evangelist [13:48:38] <Duesentrieb> TimStarling: display:table-cell or something? [13:48:44] <Ace_NoOne> of course you could read http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/ [13:48:49] <Duesentrieb> but iirc, different browsers handle that differently. [13:48:58] <Ace_NoOne> TimStarling: it has little to do with CSS, it has to do with HTML [13:49:11] <TimStarling> I've read both specs [13:49:52] <TimStarling> they make sense in their own special way, they're just poorly designed, that's all [13:51:28] <AzaTht> TimStarling: A question, on my wiki, using trunk, I'm getting following error when querying revisions from the API: Notice: Undefined property: ApiQueryRevisions::$fld_len in /home/azatoth/public_html/srcwiki/includes/api/ApiQueryRevisions.php on line 239 [13:51:50] <AzaTht> do you know if it's an error in SVN or something probably wrong locally at me [13:52:32] <TimStarling> probably in svn [13:52:42] <TimStarling> have you tried reproducing it on wikimedia?

[14:36:08] <AzaTht> adding some ids to the diff titles, and change to div instead of br [14:36:52] <AzaTht> as many want to add things there, it's easly getting crowded [14:41:39] <TimStarling> does it look the same?

[16:03:12] <Simetrical> [PRDS]MrShlee, no ETA. How long are you willing to wait? [16:04:12] <joachim-n> how do I make $wgNamespaceProtection an OR-list of user groups instead of AND? [16:08:21] <ialex> joachim-n: instead you can create a new permission for editing the namespace and assign it by $wgGroupPermissions [16:08:40] <joachim-n> thanks [16:09:03] <Wiredtape> is there an extension that can output a list of sub pages of an article? [16:09:44] <ialex> Wiredtape: {{Special:Prefindex/{{FULLPAGENAME}}}} ? [16:09:54] <[PRDS]MrShlee> Simetrical: I'm generally happy to upload 1.10 now and upgrade sooner [16:10:01] <Wiredtape> ialex, I want to expand it into an article [16:10:04] <Wiredtape> oh [16:10:05] <Wiredtape> sorry [16:10:07] <Wiredtape> forget it [16:10:11] <Wiredtape> Thank you ialex... [16:15:36] <Wiredtape> is there away to change the layout of {{special:prefixindex}} output? meaning... i want to put it into a nice box with a bullet listing [16:16:08] <Wiredtape> and is there such a thing (or is it possible) to do a subpage of a subpage? ie. article/bla1/bla2 [16:16:20] <Simetrical> To #2, sure. [16:16:43] <Simetrical> To #1, you can use global stylesheet declarations, I guess. [16:19:01] <Wiredtape> Simetrical, thank you, how would I use global stylesheet declarations? Are we talking css, if so, does the output have some sort of tag I can use? [16:22:49] <Simetrical> Wiredtape, yes, CSS. Look at the output, I don't know offhand what sort of selectors you might want to use. [16:24:26] <Wiredtape> Simetrical, Thank you...

Should I add an order by to the clause, and let mysql optimize it away (as seems indicated by the docs), or leave the query alone and only add the order by for other databases with a flag (e.g. implicitOrderby)? [16:44:32] <G_SabinoMullane> The two explain plans seem slightly different on mysql (order by adds a filesort), but I don't know enough about mysql to determine if this is a big difference or not for large page tables. [16:46:49] <Untitled|afk> hi [16:47:44] <Untitled|afk> i need some help [16:48:20] <Untitled|afk> Is it possible to make a log-in/password box for a website homepage to log into my media wiki with? [16:48:32] <Pathoschild> Yes, but I don't know how it's done. [16:48:52] <Pathoschild> I know the Mandriva Linux wiki does it, for example. [16:49:43] <Untitled|afk> How does the mandriva Linux wiki differ from media wiki? [16:50:30] <Pathoschild> MediaWiki is the software; Mandriva Linux wiki is a wiki about Mandriva Linux that uses the MediaWiki software. [16:50:45] <Pathoschild> They run a customized version of MediaWiki. [16:51:51] <Untitled|afk> Oh [16:52:00] <Untitled|afk> https://my.mandriva.com/login/ ? [16:52:15] <Pathoschild> I think so. [16:52:58] <wikibugs> 03(mod) Some way to specify heading level for new sections - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9426 (10t.laqua) [16:53:07] <Untitled|afk> thats pretty much what i want although my one would need to be smaller and on the side bar of the main page. [16:53:49] <TimLaqua> _Danny_B_, ;-) [16:54:12] <Untitled|afk> and why doesn;t mediawiki have an ACP? [16:54:15] <TimLaqua> I think the reason there are so many bugs is because the developers can't decide how any particular bug should be fixed. [16:54:45] *Jack_Phoenix thinks you're right [16:55:00] <Pathoschild> Untitled|afk: ACP? [16:55:12] <Untitled|afk> admin control center [16:55:17] <Pathoschild> An American College of Physicians is pretty expensive. [16:55:24] <TimLaqua> Patch'n close, let the users decide if it's right. ;-) [16:55:28] <Untitled|afk> like forums do etc [16:55:46] <Pathoschild> Untitled|afk: It's too complex; there is a variable-based configuration file called LocalSettings.php. [16:56:02] <Simetrical> Untitled|afk, it was made for Wikipedia, which is run by people who like configuration files. [16:56:06] <Untitled|afk> yeah i know. [16:56:14] <Untitled|afk> lol [16:56:23] <Simetrical> Untitled|afk, it was only ever released to the public somewhat incidentally. [16:56:32] <Simetrical> That's also why you need shell access to run maintenance scripts. [16:56:46] <Simetrical> Because nobody bothered to write everything to work well for a wide audience. [16:57:13] <Untitled|afk> i could even get the default logo thing to work in localsettings.php. so i replaced the sauce for ther image [16:57:27] <wikibugs> 03(NEW) Formatnum and expr gives erroneous calculation - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11156 normal; normal; Wikimedia: General/Unknown; (joanjoc) [16:59:29] <Nikerabbit> gah [17:00:11] <Untitled|afk> so any way of making a log-in thing for my wikipedia so uses can log in from the main site [17:00:13] <Nikerabbit> it's not a fri***ing calculator [17:00:20] <TimLaqua> lol [17:02:47] <Simetrical> Untitled|afk, what sort of login system do you use for the main site? [17:03:48] <TimStarling> AzaTht: still there? [17:04:00] <thesnarky1> Right now I'm trying to expand a parser that adds categories based on certain information. All that works, but I want to make the Category pages it links to into certain stubs... is it possible to generate that content using #ifexists? [17:05:13] <TimStarling> AzaTht: what name should I credit it to? [17:08:08] <Untitled|afk> like maybe just login: and password: fields and a Submit button [17:08:50] <Simetrical> Untitled|afk, what is the *underlying* system, which decides whether the login and password are correct? [17:09:37] <Untitled|afk> i have no idea. it's still in design form. i dont code. i need to know what the best road to go down to make it happen [17:10:22] <Simetrical> You'll need to write an extension for MediaWiki to get it to work with a preexisting login system. [17:10:32] <Simetrical> Or you can use a standard solution like LDAP and use preexisting extensions. [17:10:43] <Simetrical> Or write your custom login system to use MediaWiki's system. [17:10:52] <Simetrical> #2 is quite possibly the best idea. [17:11:12] <[PRDS]MrShlee> Are Wikipedia planning to support openid? [17:11:17] <Untitled|afk> use a standard solution like LDAP and use preexisting extensions? [17:11:20] <Simetrical> [PRDS]MrShlee, eventually. [17:11:25] <Simetrical> Untitled|afk, yes, that might be best. [17:11:39] <Untitled|afk> whats LDAP [17:11:40] <Untitled|afk> lmao [17:11:58] <Simetrical> Untitled|afk, a standard user login system. [17:12:18] <AzaTht> TimStarling: no credit is required, but Carl Fürstenberg if necissary [17:12:38] <Untitled|afk> where can i get the LDAP? [17:14:31] *Pathoschild pokes Untitled|afk with < http://www.google.ca/search?q=LDAP > [17:14:58] <Untitled|afk> :o [17:15:06] <Cometstyles> :O [17:16:22] *Simetrical wants to purge <br /> from the software [17:23:20] <Nikerabbit> Simetrical: huh? [17:23:39] <Simetrical> You can't style it. [17:23:55] <Simetrical> <div>foo</div><div>bar</div> can be put on one line, or you can do whatever else you like, with CSS. [17:24:00] <Simetrical> foo<br />bar you can't touch. [17:24:40] <omgs> re: [17:24:52] <Nikerabbit> and where does that matter?

[18:58:33] <omoo> thanks parthoschild [18:59:18] <Pathoschild> Welcome. [19:11:55] <facefaceface> hi, dumb question here, but is it possible to use a template to categorize a page via a variable? I can't seem to make it work [19:13:47] <Pathoschild> It should be; just add [[Category:{{VARIABLE}}]] or some such to the template. [19:14:06] <facefaceface> Pathoschild, that is exactly what fails [19:14:28] <facefaceface> [[Category:{{{VARIABLE}}}]] I mean [19:14:37] <Pathoschild> Linky? [19:14:43] <facefaceface> moment [19:15:07] <Malesca> Two things I'd like for my wiki: a hierarchical structure, where the child page links back to the parent page; and displaying the entire hierarchy (or some subset) in the sidebar. Is http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Hierarchy my best bet or are there other candidates? [19:15:27] <Simetrical> Malesca, well, you can use ordinary subpages. [19:15:39] <Simetrical> If those are your only two requirements. [19:16:18] <Malesca> Simetrical: I'm not intimately familiar with MediaWiki. Is this pages named like "foo/bar"? [19:16:46] <Simetrical> Malesca, yes. Subpages need to be enabled in the relevant namespace for that to imply subpage functionality like linkbacks, though. [19:17:25] <Malesca> Simetrical: Ah, cool. I tried naming a page like that but didn't see any linkback. So will look into enabling subpages in the relevant namespace. Thanks!

[20:00:27] <mauran> let me explain in detail [20:00:27] <facefaceface> mauran, you could have variables a, b and c, and then some complex 'if' clauses [20:00:33] <facefaceface> please dont [20:00:37] <Wayoshi> adding buttons would require an extension of sorts [20:00:39] <mauran> :-) [20:00:39] <facefaceface> ;-) [20:00:59] <facefaceface> mauran, only joking, but someone here may be able to help you.

[20:08:53] <IIVQ> mauran: how do you mean >1 authors? [20:09:01] <mauran> more than one authors [20:09:02] <_Danny_B_> IIVQ: can still be done with js using mediawiki:common.js [20:09:16] <mauran> some books has only one auth [20:09:20] <mauran> some has many [20:09:24] <mauran> how can i handle it [20:09:28] <mauran> in templates? [20:09:55] <IIVQ> cant you just do {{Book|title=A book|author=A. A. Aaron, B. C. Defgin}} ? [20:10:19] <IIVQ> _Danny_B_: how do you do that? An example of a similar case will do [20:10:35] <IIVQ> mauran: title above is for you [20:10:42] <mauran> m [20:11:05] <mauran> ohh [20:11:11] <mauran> users will add authors [20:11:19] <mauran> when edit pages [20:11:32] <mauran> template has to proide variable [20:11:34] <mauran> thats it [20:12:38] <IIVQ> _Danny_B_? Any example? [20:13:47] <_Danny_B_> IIVQ: in general it would be something like if (wgNamespaceNumber == 14) { header=document.getElementsByTagName("h1")[0]; header.innerText = header.innerText.replace("Category: ", ""); } [20:14:07] <IIVQ> ok, cool [20:14:08] <marchelly> can I manualy edit EditPage.php to add some buttons ? [20:14:09] <_Danny_B_> it's just principle. check for crossbrowser compatibility and other issues [20:14:20] *IIVQ has no experience whatsoever with javascript [20:14:27] <marchelly> or is the more simple way to do this ? [20:14:30] <IIVQ> I mean with Mediawiki+javascript [20:15:08] <IIVQ> _Danny_B_: only browser it will be used on is IE6 - unfortunately [20:15:15] <IIVQ> it's in a corporate environment [20:15:28] <IIVQ> but thanks! I hope it will work! [20:15:55] <_Danny_B_> IIVQ: therefore it's easier to handle ;-) i wrote it from head to show principle. not saying it will work exactly as it is [20:16:01] <IIVQ> mauran: did I answer your question? :-P [20:16:38] <IIVQ> _Danny_B_: ok. Thx... I just hope to find some example. Too tired now but will search on the corresponding javascript clauses to find an example [20:16:56] <IIVQ> Where exactly is the monobook.js? [20:17:05] <IIVQ> mediawiki:monobook.js? [20:17:07] <_Danny_B_> IIVQ: so am i, otherwise i gave you the exact solution. try to reach me tomorrow [20:17:19] <_Danny_B_> IIVQ: yes [20:17:27] <IIVQ> _Danny_B_: If I can't find it out tomorrow I'll contact you then! [20:17:31] <IIVQ> Thanks a lot anyway [20:17:43] <_Danny_B_> you'lll need to add it to onload hook [20:17:47] <_Danny_B_> let me find it [20:27:24] <Malesca> I find the process of adding images to my MediaWiki a bit bothersome. Go to upload page, upload it, remember/copy the filename, go to the page I want it on, include the markup. Am I doing things the wrong way or is this the usual workflow? Are there plugins/settings to make things more straightforward? [20:28:39] <Malesca> Ideally, I could click "include image" when editing an article, get a file dialog, upload it and have the proper markup inserted. [20:31:41] <Pathoschild> That's a good idea. Start coding. ;) [20:32:44] <Malesca> :) [20:37:20] <IIVQ> Malesca: A way to do it a little easier (in current situation) is: write article including image link, click "preview", see image as red link, open that link *IN NEW WINDOW*, upload image, close window and save other text with image now properly embedded [20:37:28] <IIVQ> no need to remember / copy image name [20:38:51] <Platonides> IIVQ, you can save it [20:38:58] <Malesca> IIVQ: Good idea, thanks! [20:38:59] <Platonides> and then click on all red links and upload the images [20:39:23] <Platonides> for the remove "Category:" there was a similar issue some time ago at the mailing list [20:39:32] <IIVQ> ok [20:39:36] <Platonides> but i think it touched the php code [20:39:37] <IIVQ> do you know what it's about? [20:39:55] <Platonides> sorry? [20:40:20] <IIVQ> Platonides: sometimes when saveing, then uploading the images you get caching problems, need to do a null edit before seeing the page [20:40:34] <IIVQ> did you know what the mailing list entry was about? [20:41:01] <Platonides> sorry, i'm speaking about the mail by heart [20:41:05] <IIVQ> or what mailinglist, even? :-P [20:41:16] <IIVQ> I'll do a search, soon [20:41:17] <Platonides> instead of anull edit, a purge probably also works [20:41:29] <Platonides> but shouldn't be needed :s [20:41:40] <Platonides> http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/ [20:43:17] <IIVQ> ok [20:43:23] <IIVQ> ok [20:43:31] <IIVQ> I go to sleep now, will search tomorrow [20:44:11] <I---^I> bye all, thx Platonides and _Danny_B_ [21:03:35] <wikibugs> 03(mod) Create the group "test-sysop" for the Wikimedia Incubator - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10727 (10cbrown1023) [21:04:16] <TimLaqua> What's up with spanish accent characters not working in i18n files?

[21:50:21] <omoo> the files are ok, but the thumbs are demaged [21:50:26] <Duesentrieb> omoo: svg renderes have different quirks. the one your server is using might not like the svg you create [21:50:32] <omoo> http://ol-wiki.de/index.php?title=Bild:Kolv_logo.svg [21:50:43] <omoo> its only black [21:51:03] <Duesentrieb> omoo: mediawiki uses imagemagick per default for svg rendering. it's the one that's available allmost everywhere, but it's pretty bad. [21:51:19] <Duesentrieb> use rsvg instead if you can (or sodipodi, or Batik) [21:52:34] <Duesentrieb> omoo: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Image_thumbnailing#Image_thumbnailing [21:52:58] <Duesentrieb> omoo: note that you need to manually purge the rendered thumbnails after changing the renderer [22:32:22] <CIA-15> 03tlaqua * r25418 10/trunk/extensions/ContributionScores/ContributionScores_body.php: Added plainlinks class to report tables for suppression of the lock icon over SSL connections. [22:42:55] <_Danny_B_> is the inner content of tags treated as plaintext? example: <tag><subtag>foo</subtag>bar</tag> - having extension1which handles <tag> and uses <subtag> as marker. then somebody installs extension2 which handles <subtag> (just because of same name) - so will i get plaintext or evaluated <subtag> while handling <tag>? [22:43:28] <Duesentrieb> _Danny_B_: text between extension text is literal. it is passed to the extension untouched. [22:43:51] <Duesentrieb> this means that no nested extension work, nor do templates, template parameters, etc [22:44:01] <Duesentrieb> ...unless the extension handles all that explicitely. [22:44:33] <Duesentrieb> _Danny_B_: parserfunctions are smarter. they operate on wikitext. [22:46:41] <_Danny_B_> cool!!! because i'd like to do extension which would do one xslt transformation to render the output. so i wanted to be sure, i'll receive untouched text [22:50:13] <Duesentrieb> _Danny_B_: note that the resulting HTML is *not* passed through untouched. it may get mangeled. [22:53:09] <Duesentrieb> _Danny_B_: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extensions_FAQ#How_can_I_avoid_modification_of_my_extension.27s_HTML_output.3F [22:58:50] <aton`> what am i doing wrong when the users dont get emails after creating an account? [23:09:58] <_Danny_B_> Duesentrieb: thx for the link [23:21:59] <Atlantiz> hey guys i get an error: Not Acceptable [23:21:59] <Atlantiz> An appropriate representation of the requested resource /index.php could not be found on this server. [23:22:07] <Atlantiz> when i try to make a new entry [23:22:12] <Atlantiz> in the wiki page [23:23:13] <Atlantiz> this is my site http://doctorrescue.com [23:23:28] <ataalto> a question. Is it possible to have namespace-specific logos for mediawiki? [23:24:37] <ataalto> I'd like to use the logo space as a navigation aid, and having a different logo for a couple of "top level" pages would do the trick very nicely. [23:33:58] <Atlantiz> can anyone help please? [23:36:01] <TimLaqua> Atlantiz, what's the problem? [23:36:09] <TimLaqua> Atlantiz, looks like it's workin' fine [23:36:20] <Atlantiz> let me try to submit another entry [23:36:50] <Atlantiz> weird a minute ago it was having an error heh [23:37:43] <Atlantiz> it's when i make a bigger entry that that error shows [23:37:53] <Atlantiz> with <pre></pre> tags [23:38:02] <Atlantiz> maybe there is a limit in the size? [23:38:34] <Atlantiz> TimLaqua the error is: Not Acceptable [23:38:35] <Atlantiz> An appropriate representation of the requested resource /index.php could not be found on this server. [23:39:31] <Atlantiz> hmm i removed the <pre></pre> tags...i think it has to do with the size of the entry [23:40:23] <Ruby> hello, got a question about the wiki, i se some wiki's has "10 latest changes" and "10 latest added pages" on the frontpage of their wiki. how can i have that on mine ? [23:40:40] <TimLaqua> which wiki? [23:40:50] <aton`> Ruby, you have "recent changes" on the left in the menu [23:42:08] <tty1> i wish i could get inter liki winking to work :) [23:42:35] <aton`> yeah inter leaky pimpin [23:43:16] <Atlantiz> TimLaqua my entry is a list of bash commands to show what they do maybe mediawiki is afraid of the commands? [23:43:16] <tty1> Woul anyone like to see a skintemplate i created for both mediawiki and php to make them look like part of one unified site? (im using it right now on my wiki)... d also welcome any design input [23:43:35] <TimLaqua> Atlantiz, dunno, that doesn't make much sense. ;-) [23:43:39] <tty1> *skin/template [23:44:06] <Atlantiz> TimLaqua I copied an entry out wikipedia that was huge and it worked fine in preview...but my bash list doesn't work still lol [23:44:18] <Simetrical> Ruby, try {{Special:Newpages/10}} and {{Special:Recentchanges/10}}, or something. [23:44:38] <TimLaqua> holy moley, Newpages and Recentchanges are includable? [23:45:01] <Atlantiz> TimLaqua, here is the beginning of my bash command entry: An A-Z Index of the Linux BASH command line [23:45:01] <Atlantiz> alias Create an alias [23:45:01] <Atlantiz> apropos Search Help manual pages (man -k) [23:45:01] <Atlantiz> awk Find and Replace text, database sort/validate/index [23:45:13] <Atlantiz> and the list continues [23:45:20] <TimLaqua> ya [23:45:22] <Atlantiz> maybe it doesn't like one of the commands? [23:45:31] <TimLaqua> it doesn't care waht you type in the article [23:45:36] <Atlantiz> weird [23:45:49] <TimLaqua> where'd you get the list from? [23:46:07] <Untitled|afk> how do i do it so only registed users can make new pages on my mediawiki? [23:46:08] <Duesentrieb> tty1: it would be nice to have such things on mediawiki.org - though i don't think we have a proper place for skin stuff yet. perhaps file it as an extension. [23:46:10] <Simetrical> TimLaqua, I think they are. [23:46:17] <Duesentrieb> Untitled|afk: read the faq [23:46:41] <tty1> Duesentrieb: im not sure its clean enough for that, it hasnt even been tested yet. [23:47:08] <Atlantiz> http://www.ss64.com/bash/ [23:47:17] <Atlantiz> it's going to be similar [23:47:20] <tty1> Duesentrieb: also im not sure how id file it on the metawiki site, as it is fairly useless without its phpbb counterpart skin [23:47:22] <Atlantiz> I was just previewing it [23:48:01] <Atlantiz> take a look at it maybe something there wikimedia doesn't like? [23:51:30] <TimLaqua> Atlantiz, yeah, I get the same failure on your site - I ran it on my dev 1.10.1 site and it worked fine. [23:51:35] <Ruby> Simetrical thanks <3 [23:51:44] <Atlantiz> weird eh [23:52:32] <TimLaqua> dunno. any errors in your PHP logs? [23:52:37] <Duesentrieb> tty1: well, all i'm saying is this: if you want others to use it and/or comment on it, put it somewhere where it can be found. [23:53:00] <tty1> Duesentrieb: im not sure i know of such a place [23:53:18] <Atlantiz> Tim I don't have access to them [23:53:27] <TimLaqua> owch [23:53:32] <TimLaqua> makes it hard to troubleshoot. [23:53:53] <Atlantiz> let me double check [23:54:43] <Ruby> siebrand, another one. is there one to count how many articels there is in total on the wiki or do i have to do that trou the sql table ? [23:55:37] <Atlantiz> TimLaqua, i have cpanel but can't find anything there [23:55:53] <Atlantiz> is there a particular place there I can look? [23:56:08] <Atlantiz> the standard error log just shows the old favicon.ico missing [23:56:50] <Simetrical> Atlantiz, look for "error logs". [23:56:59] <Simetrical> Atlantiz, that should include PHP errors too, I think. [23:57:32] <Simetrical> Atlantiz, also, you can enable display_errors in LocalSettings.php: <?php ini_set( 'display_errors', '1' ); error_reporting( E_ALL ); [23:57:37] <Duesentrieb> tty1: "somehwere" on mediawiki.org. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skinning could be a place to start looking. [23:57:59] <tty1> Duesentrieb: ill check it out [23:58:14] <Atlantiz> Sun Sep 2 19:38:03 2007] [error] [client 212.146.55.218] File does not exist: /home/drescue/public_html/404.shtml [23:58:14] <Atlantiz> [Sun Sep 2 19:38:03 2007] [error] [client 212.146.55.218] File does not exist: /home/drescue/public_html/favicon.ico [23:58:21] <Atlantiz> always that same error
