[00:11:34] <paulproteus>	 woooo
[00:11:40] <paulproteus>	 Hey now everybody now.
[00:48:46] <marktraceur>	 Welcome to the WMF office channel, we're going to be streaming our elevatorless installment of the Wikimedia engineering meetup in about 10 minutes.
[00:49:05] <marktraceur>	 I'll be your IRC host, if you have any questions for the speakers, queue them up by asking here (bonus points for pinging me), and I'll do everything in my power to shout them at the presenter.
[00:50:27] <paulproteus>	 Yay, hi marktraceur
[00:52:18] <marktraceur>	 Video stream will be here: http://youtu.be/0uQ0gA8mnPA
[01:02:27] <paulproteus>	 Hi qgil!
[01:03:00] <marktraceur>	 Let's get this show on the road!
[01:04:17] <marktraceur>	 If you're remote, you should be on the stream: http://youtu.be/0uQ0gA8mnPA
[01:04:31] <marktraceur>	 First up, Fabrice Florin of E2
[01:05:27] <marktraceur>	 http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Echo_%28Notifications%29
[01:05:59] <marktraceur>	 Also http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension:Echo
[01:06:14] <marktraceur>	 Also http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension:Thanks
[01:07:22] <qgil>	 marktraceur, thanks you!
[01:08:38] <marktraceur>	 Now to Ryan Kaldari, engineer from E2
[01:08:45] <marktraceur>	 For a demo!
[01:09:03] <qgil>	 you can ask questions anytime
[01:09:33] <marktraceur>	 Including y'all on IRC! I'll try to get the questions out to the presenters in a timely manner.
[01:10:15] <marktraceur>	 https://en.wikipedia.ong/wiki/User_talk:Fabrice_Florin_(WMF)#Howdy
[01:12:16] <a930913>	 Question: Is there plan for a way to suppress a notification by the poster, for cases when a notification is undesired?
[01:12:23] <marktraceur>	 This is the Extension:Thanks linked above
[01:12:44] <a930913>	 Am I getting a delayed stream?
[01:13:05] <marktraceur>	 a930913: A little bit, we'll ask your question soon
[01:13:15] <paulproteus>	 The Internet asks such great questions.
[01:13:32] <paulproteus>	 I want Extension:Thanks on all my wikis!
[01:13:35] <paulproteus>	 That is super exciting.
[01:16:06] <jorm>	 Question: I was promised a pony.  Where is my pony?
[01:16:31] <jorm>	 Question: What have I got in my pocket?
[01:16:34] <marktraceur>	 jorm: It's being shipped from Vietnam
[01:16:39] <marktraceur>	 jorm: Same answer
[01:17:18] <paulproteus>	 It'd be nice if Extension:Thanks showed the "You've been thanked for this!" on the diff page.
[01:17:53] <a930913>	 marktraceur: May a bot supress notification without every user having to blacklist them, likely ignoring other useful notifications.
[01:18:45] <marktraceur>	 paulproteus: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=MediaWiki%20Extensions&component=Thanks !
[01:19:06] <a930913>	 (As in where a bot has multiple tasks, one which "spams" userlinks.)
[01:19:18] <marktraceur>	 a930913: Do you have a use case in mind?
[01:20:19] <a930913>	 marktraceur: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Notifications#Bot_mentions
[01:21:32] <marktraceur>	 a930913: I would suggest what kaldari did - do two edits, one which mentions, the other which signs. Or the other way around. Or don't actually link to the user page.
[01:22:31] <a930913>	 marktraceur: Yeah, it's a clever idea for human editors, but if high throughput bot started doing that...
[01:23:12] <marktraceur>	 a930913: I don't think it's planned to add that functionality, but opening a bug could be a good plan?
[01:23:22] <marktraceur>	 https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=MediaWiki%20Extensions&component=Echo e.g.
[01:23:46] <a930913>	 legoktm: ^ :D
[01:24:29] <qgil>	 any questions for Fabrice?
[01:26:16] <marktraceur>	 Last call for questions!
[01:32:55] <marktraceur>	 Next up StevenW from the E3 team!
[01:33:01] <marktraceur>	 E2++
[01:33:10] <qgil>	 :)
[01:33:33] <qgil>	 Steven Walling speaking now
[01:33:47] <paulproteus>	 (Thanks to qgil and Fabrice for dealing with all my annoying questions.)
[01:34:34] <marktraceur>	 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&type=signup <-- wow, so much neater than before!
[01:34:51] <marktraceur>	 And hey, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin
[01:35:11] <marktraceur>	 But wait there's MORE! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:UserLogin?useNew=1
[01:35:27] <marktraceur>	 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:UserLogin?useNew=1&type=signup
[01:39:11] <marktraceur>	 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:GettingStarted
[01:40:58] <qgil>	 short end... interesting wiki page
[01:43:50] <paulproteus>	 I super-duper like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:GettingStarted
[01:44:53] <paulproteus>	 Whoa, Extension:GuidedTours sounds neat too.
[01:51:47] <a930913>	 If they've used their username somewhere else, can't we stalk them?
[01:52:43] <marktraceur>	 a930913: A) No guarantee that they're the same B) It would be hard to do that for very many sites without sinking a lot of developer time into it C) I think legal might have some stuff to say about it
[01:59:24] <qgil>	 thank you!
[02:00:21] <marktraceur>	 We are adjourned!
[02:00:34] <a930913>	 marktraceur: everybody: Thanks all.
[02:00:38] <marktraceur>	 Thanks for joining, the stream will be packaged into a sexy youtube video soonish and I'm sure it'll be up soon
[07:50:15] <marktraceur>	 Oh my goodness I'm a terrible IRC shepherd
