[03:47:06] Oh, goodness. There are many people here. I have just started to build my own website and have added MediaWiki to it. I have set the admin username and password and was able to login and add a lot of content. However, now when I try to login it gives me the following error message: [03:47:09] There seems to be a problem with your login session; this action has been canceled as a precaution against session hijacking. Please resubmit the form. [09:30:58] DannyS712, re the DB in the test: how do I access that? it's null for me [09:56:57] 1) ProofreadPage\Page\PageRevisionTaggerTest::testAddingTags [09:56:57] TypeError: Argument 1 passed to ChangeTags::getTags() must implement interface Wikimedia\Rdbms\IDatabase, null given, called in /var/www/html/mw-extensions/ProofreadPage/tests/phpunit/Page/PageRevisionTaggerTest.php on line 72 [10:00:09] but $this->tablesUsed is set, so it should be setting the DB up for me (?) [10:05:30] ah well, @group Database worked too [13:30:43] *stupid question incoming* what's the distinction between the REST API and the action API? are there times I should be using one over the other? [13:36:53] no, there's no times when you "should" or "shouldn't" either [13:36:57] *use either [13:37:34] are the times when one is preferred? [13:37:39] nope [13:37:48] if it works for you, use it [13:38:03] what is the aim of the REST API thrn? [13:38:25] just more convenient in some case? [13:38:33] to keep the REST fanboys happy? [13:39:00] seems like non-zero technical investment for fanboy service? [13:39:12] I'm partially joking [13:39:30] But I've seen enough times "your API is crap because it's not restful" [13:39:41] "What do you mean you don't have a REST API?" [13:40:02] i mean, it uses GET and POST, what more do they want? :-D [13:40:33] >RESTful APIs are really popular among microservice fanboys. [13:40:35] thanks internet [13:44:26] also, is Jackmcbarn the best reviewer for a Scribunto patch? [13:44:49] Is he even active atm? [13:44:51] they seem to not really be around, but they're the only one auto added the the review [13:45:16] The people added automatically as reviewers is a bit of a rotten list for some components [13:45:44] do i just kind of assume the right people will notice at some point, or should i make some effort to figure out suitable reviewers? [13:46:13] The latter is probably better [13:46:49] If there's a task associated, you could tag platform engineering on that, and comment you're looking for CR [13:47:00] It all depends what the patch actually is... Other people might be able to easily review it [13:47:22] https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/Scribunto/+/703718 [13:47:50] there's no phab task (but there could be) - it's something that will help in another extension [13:51:50] Tim or Lego might be reasonably placed to review it [13:52:22] is it ok to just speculatively add them? or is that "not a done thing"? [13:54:55] Most people won't mind being added to one or two patches. If you start adding them to loads, they might get grumpy :) [13:56:24] OK then :-) don't wanna be annoying, but kinda do still want to get eyes on ^_^ [13:57:40] I can almost guarantee in most repos, if you don't poke people in one way or another, it won't get looked at :P [13:58:43] i kind of got that impression, but I don't want to be tooooo impatient [14:00:02] what's the rule for "work expands to over-whelm the number of engineers you have"? [14:00:10] Parkinson's law is "work expands to fill the time" [14:10:29] does that mean work is gaseous ;) [14:15:06] well, it depends what I had for breakfast, but it certainly can be [14:59:05] Здравствуйте. Я - участник википедии Ajir78 (если нужно - могу подтвердить это скажем письмом по вики-почте). Какое-то время назад надолго приехал на дачу и стал пользоваться мобильным интернетом [14:59:05] Мегафона. С тех пор несколько раз появлялись сообщения, что мой айпи заблокирован. Сегодня весь день день не могу работать в Википедии. На данный момент информация при попытке править мой [14:59:06] черновик в личном пространстве "Этот IP-адрес заблокирован как открытый прокси-сервер. Возможные причины и информация о том, что делать дальше. [14:59:07] Информация о блокировке [14:59:07] Заблокирован 178.176.73.179 администратором ‪QBA-bot‬ в 21:12, 21 января 2021. Блокировка закончится 21:12, 21 июля 2021 (по часовому поясу UTC). ". Можно ли как-то восстановить мой доступ7 [14:59:34] Если нужно, предоставлю еще детали. Заранее спасибо. С уважением. [15:00:51] Ajir78: I only speak English but is your bot blocked on a wiki? [15:05:06] he is saying that he is editing from the mobile operator but blocked due to proxy [15:05:15] let me contact QbitArray who blocked him [15:07:34] Ajir78, я напишу администратору, который заблокировал, чтобы он посмотрел [15:08:32] rubin16: Спасибо. [15:24:47] Ajir78, сняли блокировку, проверьте, пожалуйста [15:27:42] rubin16: Проверил. Получилось сделать тестовую правку в черновике. Спасибо! [15:43:11] rubin16: ah, ty! [15:43:19] =)
