[03:01:29] Hi everyone!
[03:01:33] i wanna do a thing.
[03:01:41] Let me know if this is possible:
[03:01:50] i want editors to be able to add a template to a page ...
[03:02:07] and that reference is *automagically* referenced by another page
[03:03:18] for example, i stole the calendar from another wiki. when you click on a date, i want to list events for that date. If the event you're adding is a birthday, you slip in the birthday icon template. Later, you can click a SHOW ME ALL BIRTHDAYS link to see a page listing links to all the date pages with birthdays on em.
[03:03:39] but the birthdays are MAGICALLY, DELICIOUSLY added to that page when you use the template
[03:03:40] dig?
[03:03:42] possible?
[03:05:42] Um . . . do you want categories?
[03:05:45] And category pages?
[03:05:49] hmm ...
[03:06:05] i don't know. picture this: you click on the calendar to go to August 17th.
[03:06:30] on that date's page, you add a few events - the birthday of Joe Smith and the Big Pants holiday
[03:06:59] you also add a couple of little "holiday" and "birthday" icons
[03:07:50] then you go back to the main page and click on the "SHOW ME ALL THE BLOODY BIRTHDAYS" link. It takes you to a page that has a lis of links. The links each take you to one of the calendar date pages that lists a birthday and uses the little icon.
[03:08:27] but that whole last bit was done automatically - you didn't have to explicitely add anything to the "BLOODY BIRTHDAYS" page.
[03:09:01] i now that technically this is automatically done on the "pages that link here" listing ...
[03:09:07] but that's kind of an ugly sloppy listing

[03:24:25] :D
[04:27:09] i asked this earlier in another channel but i'll ask here, as they referred me!
[04:27:20] i would like to strip the parser from the rest of the mediawiki source
[04:27:29] i have a different framework i have to fit it around
[04:27:48] i looked in Parser.php and i couldn't successfully find a way to call the function and I sort of need help extracting it
[04:27:52] or finding a third party option
[04:28:15] Everyone wants to do that.
[04:28:20] Sadly, it's a bloody pain in the neck.
[04:28:26] Undoubtedly possible, though.
[04:28:32] yes, sir?
[04:28:49] is there a small set of instructions that you give everybody coming here asking that?
[04:29:04] Never tried it, so I don't have any.
[04:29:25] what is the call to the function?
[04:29:39] Parser->parse( $text );
[04:29:46] I think.
[04:29:50] Usually it's called indirectly.
[04:29:55] howso?
[04:30:11] OutputPage, wfMsgWikiHtml, wfMsgExt, etc.
[04:30:36] OutputPage.php is in includes/, right?
[04:30:53] Pretty much everything is.
[04:31:13] Tim recently added some stuff in includes/filerep/ for some reason.
[04:31:22] And there's also languages/ and maintenance/, but those are special-purpose.
[05:14:49] Hi. I would like to gain commit access to one of the mediawiki extensions (Farmer). Are there any lead developers in here?
[05:16:08] brion_away, Tim-away ping
[05:16:13] (i guess they are away...)
[05:18:16] indeed
[05:18:23] email the list, or them
[05:18:30] johnjosephbachir: away... would be the best to write brion an email: brion at wikimedia dot org
[05:20:18] + $this->dieUsage("``{$params['title']}'' doesn't exist", 'missingtitle');
[05:20:24] Raymond__: okay, thanks
[05:20:38] I thought this abuse of accent stopped then years ago, what's up with it now?
[05:21:32] can
[05:21:34] uh.. dunno
[05:21:41] 't be that hard to use proper quotes
[05:22:45] Nikerabbit, it's still the standard in Linux documentation intended for the command line.

[12:31:28] yeah
[12:31:32] use $wgMimeDetectorCommand = "file -bi"
[12:31:49] doesn't that require access to the log files?

[12:35:18] anyway, it seems to work fine now and the image shows up as it should :)
[12:35:18] i'll put a note there.
[12:35:43] the stuff about the log file is arcane. it seems to tell you where you find error messages. and it apparently only applies to SELinux.
[12:35:52] oh
[12:36:06] i thought it somehow got the mime type by looking at the log file...
[12:36:16] which imho sounded quite fragile :)
[12:38:46] that would be silly
