[11:30:16] <Forza>	 hi
[11:31:36] <Forza>	 i'm using https://github.com/greenhatmonkey/Fail2Log and i am concerned about its use of $username in `error_log ( "Failed:$ip $time $username\n", 3, $wgFail2LogFile );`
[11:32:19] <Forza>	 Does mediawiki sanitize $username this early in the auth process?
[14:59:50] <Forza>	 I did an update to the Fail2Log extension. https://github.com/greenhatmonkey/Fail2Log/pull/1
[15:00:20] <Forza>	 Not sure if greenhatmonkey is still around - there is not activity for many years in their repo.
[15:01:28] <Forza>	 Anyway, I changed it to use MW built-in GetIP(), and added some sanitazion and log file error handling  as well as allowing UTC or local time logging.7
[17:13:13] <Reedy>	 Forza: I would probably start with a commit that is just extracting and removing that tar.gz... and then a commit ontop (can still be the same PR) making your changes
[17:13:26] <Reedy>	 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Fail2Log is kinda depressing too
[17:16:04] <Forza>	 yea i suppose i could have done that. but i am not sure upstream is active any more. was thinking to fork and propose a new maintainer after some time
[17:19:06] <Forza>	 Reedy: is there some protocol or etiquette for this? 
[21:32:30] <Reedy>	 There's no one right answer... Ping the maintainer, give them some time etc
[21:52:08] <Guest70>	 Hello, I am trying to setup Extension:FeaturedFeeds on my wiki. I have read the documentation but do not understand what I need to put in the setup pages like MediaWiki:Ffeed-*-page. Is it possible to give the extension a list of pages to pull from and allow it to randomly select a page per day?
[23:30:17] <Gry>	 Guest70: hi
[23:30:23] <Gry>	 Guest70: that seems specific to that extension
[23:30:33] <Gry>	 Guest70: where are you taking these instructions from?
