[00:44:20] You can mention it. Sorry have a lot going on and worrying about if my patch will blow something up lol. Hopefully the rewrite deploy goes good, which I know thats important milestone but I have a lot going on I'm unable to worry about that in particular at the moment. But if you want to feel free. [00:45:01] It went through a lot of very extensive beta testing but production is a whole other story. [00:46:00] Actually what is this I can't understood? [00:47:44] Basically I rewrote the CreateWiki extension entirely which is what handles a lot of stuff including ManageWiki settings cache store and a lot more than just creating wikis. We mention it so if after we deploy you encounter issues, let us know. CreateWiki is our central extension for how the wiki farm operates at the moment. [00:47:47] something something CosmicAlpha did some code wizardry something something really big change [00:48:26] Rip [00:48:37] You means after this there will be a big change right in Create Wiki. [00:49:41] Yes. Basically. Not a ton of user facing stuff that would affect you but there's a potential for random unseen bugs that was not caught in testing. That is why we mentioned it. [00:50:01] Ok Got it [00:50:12] With the big update, how much easier do you expect CreateWiki's installation and setup to be? [00:50:16] A lot of the codebase has not been touched since 2016-2018 and it has now been rewritten. [00:50:56] It should be a bit easier. More updates and making this even easier later on. [00:51:56] I don’t have access to main announce lol. Dont worry about it focus on what’s important please [00:52:21] Send the announcement and we can post it [00:53:04] I’ll figure that out in a bit or tmr, not home [00:53:12] Abooo [00:53:40] I technically can give myself the ability to post by adding the tech or steward role [00:53:51] 1984 [00:54:07] hey cosmic can i become a CL to be able to post in main announcement 😈 [00:54:15] /hj(?) [00:54:28] Actually what are you posting? [00:54:37] im a perfectly responsible person [00:54:38] job queue is sloooow [00:54:46] When is it not [00:58:21] jokes aside if no one else steps up i would be happy to try and fill in as community liasons where needed, since its kinda important to have and i like community engagement [00:58:46] just never aspire for tech then [01:05:56] agentisai: I forgot you were a wiki creator and got confused why you approved #50000 lmao [01:06:11] [[w:Template:Self-minnow]] [01:06:11] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Self-minnow [01:06:32] I'm exercising my John-given right to self-appointment as wiki creator [01:06:34] what else? [01:06:43] i disabled the WC label in mark admins so it's just (TECH) [01:06:54] damn you john!1!!!!1!11!11 [01:07:27] wait [01:07:32] hey cosmicalpha: [01:07:42] was this tested with WikiDiscover [01:08:00] It should be why? [01:08:19] ah okay [01:08:23] just popped into my head [01:08:25] Nothing has been deployed yet because the mwdeploy is not working with certain servers at a time [01:08:39] lazy python script [01:08:48] I will have to use rsync manually [01:15:17] agentisai wdym by: [01:15:17] > just never aspire for tech then [01:18:09] CLs can't have any technical access because they're supposed to focus only on community engagements [01:18:37] I remember a quote from UO where he said I began to neglect my role as CES once I got shell access \:P [01:19:06] i cant have tech access(minus eventually beta, although since thats not prod and just testing from what CA said it dont count) [01:19:19] minors cant sign NDAs lmao [01:19:42] for now [01:20:04] if that changes we'll see [01:20:17] For tech they can with cosigner now if there is a valid need and proven they can be good with it. [01:20:26] wouldnt be the first wiki organization i've had change its bylaws because of my age [01:20:36] say what now [01:20:44] the bylaws are eternal [01:20:48] but the NDA policy is not [01:20:59] dang [01:21:13] i did actually get a wiki organization to change its bylas [01:21:17] i didnt ask them [01:21:23] I legit had no idea they did [01:21:39] until the president mentioned it to me in casual conversation [01:21:41] hilarious [01:22:17] bylaws is an interesting place to codify NDA-related things 🤔 [01:22:22] cosmicalpha: when was that decided on didnt see anything in board minutes [01:22:25] I never said NDA [01:22:30] o [01:22:31] It was for membership [01:22:35] fair [01:22:54] In the past, you had to be 18+ to be a paying member of Wikimedia NYC [01:23:36] It's not in the meeting notes by design, the actual cosigner NDA form hasn't been approved yet [01:23:51] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1292658619648704614/image.png?ex=670489a7&is=67033827&hm=8754f45fb2ba0ac545a950daefae8db43705568a4b31e4d31d194986b4c933ea& [01:23:57] scary [01:23:59] I didn't know this and paid and signed up anyway. I believe the reasoning was just that I was so enthusiastic they didn't want to say no you cant be a member so they asked a lawyer [01:24:10] agentisai:: glorious [01:24:28] I'll get more on this later once we finish last servers for CW upgrade [01:25:08] maybe the lock button could be grouped with the visibility button [01:26:13] [1/2] PicDeVl, it was executive session item but tabled as we didn't have a use case yet. [01:26:13] [2/2] This u18 NDA will be specific to tech roles only for now, and minimum age still isn't approved yet either. [01:26:30] spicy executive session [01:26:50] executive session? [01:27:19] These thingies [01:27:22] > agentisai [01:27:23] parts in a Board meeting you don't want publicly available on the minutes [01:27:24] ja [01:27:26] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1292659519364661258/Screenshot_20241006-182700.png?ex=67048a7d&is=670338fd&hm=4c95e7fd8c689c127a98c7b719f9c9c1d416ef317e42ca21d27431325d428d12& [01:27:56] spicy indeed [01:28:33] that's new [01:28:40] never remember having those sessions before [01:28:43] im gonna go chuck chicken in the air fryer to finish dinner [01:28:52] stil hungry [01:29:12] gonna see if i dont do more Wikipedia work, been doing that lately [01:29:35] either source hunting for my current article I'm focusing on or dyk reviews [01:29:37] ill see [01:29:44] i should sleep at a normal time though [01:29:54] uuugh [01:30:31] weakness of the flesh [01:30:34] sleep [04:13:19] Neat, seems like nothing's majorly exploded. Good job, CA and CW [04:13:55] https://tenor.com/view/hell-no-oh-luck-hope-gif-19453422 [04:18:30] Hey yeah not yet anyway... [04:29:14] Will I get a notification if my custom domain request is approved? [05:40:05] how do i know when the import to my wiki is complete [05:40:10] does it give me a notif or something [06:22:26] thanks on the approval for the chants of sennaar wiki! [06:45:09] You should [06:45:18] It should. [07:27:18] [1/2] can i add more icons here [07:27:18] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1292750083045064745/image0.jpg?ex=6704ded5&is=67038d55&hm=8006229b5d57c288fdfa81061e8cf6770afb896768fc651e6d55617d0901e611& [07:31:41] [1/2] For me, yes [07:31:41] [2/2] That will requires JS tho [07:32:05] how would i do it [07:36:51] [1/2] Are there any good resources regarding changing the colors for Timeless? I'm aware you can input your CSS into Common.css or specifically Timeless.css, however, it's a bit troublesome to figure out what to change. It's possible of course, but having some simple guide or other documentation if available would make it a great deal easier [07:36:51] [2/2] I suppose even copying Timeless.css from a wiki that has it customised would also be a help - not that I know much about other wikis. Even if I did do that, how does attribution work in terms of that? [07:43:15] [1/3] there's no like super pro guides, but iirc there's a page on mediawiki.org that had some Timeless specific snippets [07:43:15] [2/3] I use Timeless on my wikis, and I'm trying to explain every bit w/ comments, but I still suggest to be careful w/ copy/pasting [07:43:15] [3/3] at very list, try to test separate bits in element inspector (Firefox has Styling tab for raw CSS input, I use it pretty often) [07:44:41] I am using exactly that styling tab, it's just a slow process which is why I was looking for any resources to speed it up haha [08:08:06] how would i do it [08:13:46] [1/4] [08:13:47] [2/4] my CSS (things that are same for all skins are in Common.css) [08:13:47] [3/4] [08:13:47] [4/4] [08:16:10] Thanks, I'll try and see if I can figure it out :LUL: [08:21:01] but yeah, how I got this all - I was poking pages w/ inspector, sometimes fpr hours [08:22:30] If I use that as a base to change stuff on my wiki, should I write something equivalent like `/ Taken from Gigantic Wiki [ https://gogigantic.wiki/wiki/MediaWiki:Timeless.css ] /`? [08:22:58] Yeah, unfortuantely my time is really limited right now so anything to cut down the time is a godsend [08:27:34] [1/2] yeah, this can work [08:27:34] [2/2] I took some things from Inkiepedia and Zelda Wiki [08:28:14] if you are using these snippets better credit them, not me lol [08:28:22] Alright cool. Yeah I'll just leave anything like that taken from elsewhere unless I remove it fully [09:16:22] hey how do i fix and
