[19:10:59] Nemo_bis: maybe? [19:25:54] effeietsanders: banner=X [19:27:12] e.g. https://nl.wikipedia.org/?banner=WLMUS [19:27:50] Nemo_bis: that only changes the text [19:27:50] why is https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CentralNoticeBanners so weird [19:27:52] but the link remains the same [19:28:07] still pointing to the dutch side [19:28:08] *site [19:28:27] are you sure the link is not set to be dependent on language? [19:29:06] well, for me the link doesn't go anywhere [19:29:11] quite certain yes :) [19:29:23] Nemo_bis: your link should go to wikilovesmonuments.it [19:29:59] I have English interface on nl.wiki [19:30:44] even logged out, doesn't bring me anywhere [19:30:58] Nemo_bis: how do you mean, doesn't bring you anywhere? :S [19:31:25] it refreshes the page; links to current URL [19:31:34] on it.wiki I only see fundraising banners as usual [19:31:55] maybe the banner is confused because I'm in Helsinki [19:32:04] so I'm not the best test case possiblew [19:32:26] Nepal problem? [19:32:58] Nemo_bis: is in Italy [19:33:14] [21:31:25] Nemo_bis it refreshes the page; links to current URL [19:33:15] [21:31:34] Nemo_bis on it.wiki I only see fundraising banners as usual [19:33:17] [21:31:55] Nemo_bis maybe the banner is confused because I'm in Helsinki [19:33:18] [21:32:04] Nemo_bis so I'm not the best test case possiblew [19:33:32] oh, Finland... [19:33:47] Finland is not participating, the banner will not show up there as it is geolocated [19:33:47] Finland shouldn't see WLM banners indeed [19:34:21] well, ?banner= is supposed to emulate everything, apparently not geoip [19:34:47] Nemo_bis: yeah, that is confusing [19:34:58] Nemo_bis: the problem is, the nepal guy reported the same error as you just did [19:35:00] effeietsanders: btw I've sent emails to 7900 municipalities yesterday about WLM and the only answers so far have been all "is WLM a FREE service??" [19:35:06] and Nepal is participating [19:35:15] it looks like the issue WMUK had [19:35:30] or whatever was discussed on the list ad nauseam [19:35:36] no, WMUK was different, that was a countrycode mixup: UK/GB [19:35:41] uh [19:35:58] different cause but same symptom, iirc [19:36:30] not sure [19:36:31] it looks like the issue of the UK indeed but that one was fixed with UK -> GB [19:37:09] Romaine: I don't quite understand why the url doesn't change with country= [19:37:34] because the country= should send a different geoip signal [19:37:47] I don't understand either [19:38:48] it does make the banner disappear in https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2013_in_Algeria?country=PT [19:39:06] but I must say that the url is coded in the banner [19:39:46] https://it.wikipedia.org/?banner=wlm_2013&country=IT doesn't work either for me [19:39:52] ok, so the banner might ignore the signal? [19:40:20] I don't know but surely the linking mechanism is not flexible enough [19:40:29] but basically what I understand, is that if the country is not participating, the link will be a simple refresh [19:40:30] where the banner is shown is coded differently than the url of tha banner [19:40:35] instead of going to .org [19:40:49] whatever it is, when something unexpected happens it fails to add an URL, AFAICS; it should fallback to something vaguely sensible [19:40:53] (or if it thinks it isn't participating) [19:40:57] yep [19:41:01] that would explain why nemo only gets a refresh [19:41:08] why the GB got a refresh [19:41:22] and possibly why NP gets a refresh too [19:41:35] (but then they would still have to be out of competition somehow?) [19:42:48] effeietsanders: what do you see if you open https://bits.wikimedia.org/geolocation ? [19:43:03] wrong one [19:43:09] Not found :P [19:43:21] can you ask the NP guy to check what country https://bits.wikimedia.org/geoiplookup puts him in [19:43:26] Nemo_bis: but yeah, https://bits.wikimedia.org/geoiplookup [19:43:28] and we did [19:43:32] it puts him in NP [19:43:41] Kathmandu to be precise [19:43:43] not that it matters [19:43:45] and NP is in the banner as country code [19:44:01] Romaine: no timestamp errors? [19:44:27] hmpf [20:17:01] hmm, so we still don't know what causes the nepali problems [20:17:08] and we still can't replicate :S
