[09:12:27] [telegram] <Михаил> I have a Teltonika RUT955 router. It redirects certain kinds of events to certain numbers. If these messages contain Russian letters (Cyrillic) then instead of each letter there is a "?" Yesterday I talked with the technical specialists of the mobile operator. Now it's ANSI encoding. Changed the sending encoding to utf-8 and utf-16. The problem was not solved, but the content of course changed. Technical experts said that [13:34:33] [telegram] I've just discovered https://patchdemo.wmflabs.org and I'M THRILLED. [13:35:45] [telegram] yay, all of Langcom now knows about it [13:35:56] [telegram] . (re @jhsoby: Thanks, that's the one I was thinking of!) [13:36:28] [telegram] "OOOOH Shiny!' @amire80 just now (re @lucaswerkmeister: not local but https://patchdemo.wmflabs.org/ includes plenty of extensions at least) [13:36:48] [telegram] ^^ [13:40:20] [telegram] The MediaWiki installation on my laptop has been broken for a while, and I write too little code these days to fix it properly, and even if I fixed it, it would be quite far from a real Wikimedia site. So yes, it looks useful for testing. [13:41:06] [telegram] Indeed. I use it to develop gadgets now. (re @amire80: The MediaWiki installation on my laptop has been broken for a while, and I write too little code these days to fix it properly, and even if I fixed it, it would be quite far from a real Wikimedia site. So yes, it looks useful for testing.) [13:41:27] [telegram] Indeed. I use it to develop gadgets now. (specifically gadgets that do administrative actions) (re @amire80: The MediaWiki installation on my laptop has been broken for a while, and I write too little code these days to fix it properly, and even if I fixed it, it would be quite far from a real Wikimedia site. So yes, it looks useful for testing.) [13:41:59] [telegram] But I also have so many questions now. Like, why can Wikimedia people make this cool thing, but creating an actual language-code.wikipedia.org takes many days. [13:43:08] [telegram] And why doesn't it require to change the initial password. [13:44:26] [telegram] patch-demo is volunteer maintained with many configurations that wouldn't be appropriate for user-facing websites (re @amire80: But I also have so many questions now. Like, why can Wikimedia people make this cool thing, but creating an actual language-code.wikipedia.org takes many days.) [13:45:29] [telegram] And why does my browser say that it's not really secure when I try to change the password, even though it's https. [13:51:07] [telegram] And most importantly, how do I change LocalSettings.php. [13:52:56] [telegram] I guess I could change DefaultSettings.php, but this would be quite awful. [13:53:06] [telegram] Wikipedia's infrastructure and processes are much more complicated than creating a little default MediaWiki install (re @amire80: But I also have so many questions now. Like, why can Wikimedia people make this cool thing, but creating an actual language-code.wikipedia.org takes many days.) [13:53:17] [telegram] For one thing you have to schedule deployments [13:53:30] [telegram] connection's secure here (re @amire80: And why does my browser say that it's not really secure when I try to change the password, even though it's https.) [13:54:07] [telegram] For another there is (or was, been a few years since I did it myself) a bunch of different things that need deploying in various different parts of wikimedia, in order to make a new wiki [13:55:23] [telegram] https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Add_a_wiki to see the production wiki creation process [13:55:37] [telegram] what do you want to change there? I don't think it can be changed, no. https://github.com/MatmaRex/patchdemo#faq (re @amire80: And most importantly, how do I change LocalSettings.php.) [13:56:30] [telegram] $wgContentLang. And I'm not the first to ask about this particular thing: https://github.com/MatmaRex/patchdemo/issues/92 [17:29:02] [telegram] /me currently uses MW Docker but it has its downsides [18:27:28] [telegram] https://tools-static.wmflabs.org/bridgebot/5024e542/file_2646_oga.ogg [18:28:44] [telegram] Sorry. Does anyone know how to remove the above audio fragment? [18:29:21] [telegram] done :) [18:29:25] [telegram] you should be able to long touch and delete your message for everyone [18:29:26] [telegram] delete message => delete for everyone [18:29:36] [telegram] a-ha :) (re @lucaswerkmeister: done :)) [18:30:20] [telegram] Thanks. I tried long touch, but that didn't work (re @lucaswerkmeister: done :))
