[00:02:00] this is such a pain... i'm willing to bet the author of this extension doesn't use it ;) [00:02:14] *mick_work has gone through 107 different configs [00:08:24] hi all [00:08:26] I have a question [00:09:21] Topic: "Don't ask if anyone's around, just ask your question..." [00:09:40] I missed that bab [00:09:42] *baby [00:09:58] what is the difference between {{Inclusionpage}} and {{:Inclusionpage}} [00:10:02] and various iterations thereof? [00:10:33] The one with the : comes from the Main namespace, the one without comes from the Template: Namespace [00:10:45] ah [00:10:55] and like {{::Inclusionpage}} [00:10:59] is that anything? [00:11:05] And there's no difference between {{:Template:Inclusionpage}} and {{Template:Inclusionpage}} and {{Inclusionpage}}. [00:11:07] Main namespace... if ti works at all [00:11:12] Ya [00:11:13] :: I don't know. [00:11:26] I'd imagine it's an invalid title. [00:11:28] It's just ways of altering the default namespace [00:11:29] Try it. :D [00:11:33] sounds good [00:12:01] <_Danny_B_> so far i know :: is used in semantic wiki, but don't know if it's related here [00:12:12] ^_^ Oh ya... [00:12:23] thanks [00:12:52] But I think some Versions or alterations of MW may dish out an invalid title error if you use :: [00:13:13] *Simetrical <3 rsnapshot [00:13:59] Help! I accidentally deleted the property values in my mw_ipblocks... and the wiki is now experiencing technical difficulties. Can anyone tell me where to find the default values to insert? [00:20:32] Does anyone see me? [00:20:56] Sasoriza, yes, but no one has an answer handy, evidently. [00:21:20] ;-) "deleted all the values" ? [00:21:29] Incidentally, relevant to a previous discussion, I was right, initial : is illegal in page titles. Except maybe in the namespace. [00:21:37] But I hope there, too. [00:22:59] Sasoriza: simply delete all entries in the table. all blocks will be gone, then, but the wiki should work [00:23:33] Duesen: That's what I did... hence why I now have a problem. [00:24:05] TimLaqua: In the sql _wikidb... ipb_id, ipb_address, etc. [00:24:14] i think think that should cause problems. perhaps you deleted the table itself?... [00:24:30] but then, i don't know so much about the blocking stuff. [00:24:39] you deleted the columns? [00:24:45] i'm jsut assuming tthat if the table is empty, there are no blocks, and hence no problems [00:25:01] oh, the columns would be bad, too :)= [00:25:05] totally [00:25:19] I agree, an 'empty' ipblocks table should be fine [00:25:28] no rows are fine. [00:25:31] no columns... not. [00:25:34] but if the table got deleted... ya... [00:25:46] The table's still there. [00:25:47] Sasoriza, what version of MW? [00:25:53] Sasoriza: delete the table and recreate it using the info from maintenance/tables.sql [00:25:54] 1.9 [00:26:35] Sasoriza: well, if you deleted the columns, it'S no good that the table is still there. you detroyed its structure. [00:27:07] Sasoriza, are you using phpMyAdmin? or the CLI? [00:28:08] phpmyadmin [00:28:23] and is your table previx mw_ [00:28:27] so like mw_ipblocks [00:28:28] ? [00:28:30] yes [00:29:33] http://mediawiki.pastey.net/73355 [00:29:37] run that SQL script. [00:30:29] *TimLaqua runs off in the darkness. [00:37:16] <_Danny_B_> Simetrical: been told namespaces can't contain colon at all [00:37:31] _Danny_B_, right, of course they can't. [00:37:44] So initial double colon is invalid however you cast it.

[00:43:16] *Simetrical raises an eyebrow at VoiceOfAll [00:45:19] I don't know, thats how it was [00:45:27] you needed 'patrol' to see them [00:47:37] Oh, hmm. [00:47:38] Weird. [00:47:49] ('patrolmarks' seems like a sucky permission name, BTW) [00:54:07] ok, i'm a bit further with my voyage through mediawiki/ldap integration [00:54:17] ldapsearch -x -b "ou=Accounts,o=Example,dc=labs,dc=example,dc=com" -D "uid=mweiss,ou=Accounts,o=example,dc=labs,dc=example,dc=com" <-- this works (from the commandline) [00:54:25] http://ldap.pastebin.com/d69e55bb5 <--- my config [00:54:29] http://ldap.pastebin.com/d512e40cd <--- when i put in that config, i get this [00:57:05] would anyone be able to help me with any workarounds for mediawiki on a 64-bit php5 server that cannot be upgraded?

[01:42:39] <_Danny_B_> Phil_E|Dinner: write js function, add placeholder to page, reload... [01:43:34] k-man___, SQL databases (generally MySQL, optionally PostgreSQL, experimentally Oracle) is used for data storage.

[02:13:08] <_Danny_B_> can different extension things (say tag and special page) be in one extension together or does it have to be in separate files? [02:17:54] _Danny_B_, they can all be in the same file [02:18:46] 03(NEW) title of is.wikibooks - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11175 trivial; normal; Wikimedia: Language setup; (steinninn) [02:19:11] _Danny_B_, like Special Page extensions usually have a base php file, then a _body file which is the special page class, and the i18n file. you could load up a bunch of tag and parser functions in the base php file. [02:19:48] <_Danny_B_> ok. and if i'd like to use ajax to do some parsing without sending the form content, should the ajax response generator be in separate file? [02:20:09] If it doesn't fit in the Special Page class [02:20:37] if it's just a function, the base php page for the extension would be a fine place for it.

[03:15:49] Real quick... if the person who I'm trying to set up the software for can't tell the difference between the number 5.x and 4.4.6, in regards to which version of PHP is included in their hosting package, is there an older version of mediawiki that will be compatible with that version of PHP?

[03:38:34] *NotAMused slaps lef [03:49:14] $seen brion [03:49:52] hey it's davidmccabe [03:50:12] ta-da! [03:50:33] *davidmccabe is on the "let's switch VCSs" campaign trail. [03:53:33] Comparing two branches with SVN takes about fifteen minutes. [03:53:40] With git, 0.3 seconds. [03:57:15] again? [03:57:35] feels like yesterday when we switched from CVS [03:58:05] i hear a lot of SVN bashing lately [03:58:13] weee [03:58:15] svn is not trendy anymore [03:58:18] i think linus started that ;) [04:00:11] what I love about svn is the windows client (tortoiseSVN), that makes my source (and other stuff I use SVN for) so cross-plattform ;) [04:00:20] but perhaps i'm going off-topic now [04:03:11] was svn ever actually trendy? or did it just corner the market by billing itself as a natural switch from cvs? [04:05:12] It was trendy. [04:05:39] In fact, I think our announcement of the switch, or some fairly prominent mention thereof, referred to it as "ever-so-slightly trendier". [04:05:44] *Simetrical looks around [04:06:04] well, it sucks. [04:06:05] hard. [04:06:33] Yes, well, so does PHP. [04:06:38] And in some respects, MySQL. [04:06:44] And arguably Apache. [04:06:50] svn was trendy, someone once told me we should rewrite mediawiki in it [04:06:55] But the VCS, we can do something about. [04:06:56] seriously [04:07:12] TimStarling, was this person a programmer? [04:07:20] probably [04:07:28] Was the guy who decided to write it in PHP a programmer? :P [04:07:55] davidmccabe, Wikimedia could switch to Linux/lighttpd/PostgreSQL/PHP at least if it really wanted. [04:07:55] where's CIA? I just committed something [04:08:02] Would just require bunches of configuration. [04:08:16] ooh, let's do that. [04:08:38] anyways, I literally did the following in less time than it took for svn to diff two branches: [04:08:44] checked out working copies of both branches, [04:08:45] By the way, TimStarling, where did you get mod_proctitle? It's not packaged anywhere that I've seen, it's available in some places in source, but apparently not anywhere central, or if there is anywhere central it's possibly for BSD. [04:08:50] compiled git [04:08:52] Domas wrote it [04:08:54] it was buggy [04:09:03] TimStarling, is it publicly offered anywhere? [04:09:09] going from the tutorial, imported both working copies into two branches of a new git repo [04:09:11] and diffed them. [04:09:11] no idea [04:09:18] *Simetrical will stab domas sometime, then [04:09:26] OggHandler is ready for beta now [04:09:27] davidmccabe, . . . [04:09:35] Simetrical: it's true. [04:09:41] davidmccabe, well, most of us don't use branches so much, I guess. :) [04:09:49] That's only because it's painful. [04:10:03] If it weren't painful, you'd start using them, because they're really nice to have. [04:10:26] What about that recent server switching annoyence? [04:10:30] Couldn't have happened with a distributed VCS. [04:11:04] Admittedly, yes, we don't use them because they suck. [04:11:33] hey, I said OggHandler is ready for beta, don't you care? [04:12:19] What's that do again? [04:12:28] *davidmccabe doesn't care. [04:12:31] it's getting down to the chilly end of the cool scale now [04:12:40] it plays videos and sound files [04:12:53] you use the same syntax as for images [04:12:58] Amazing! This is a singular accomplishment in the history of mankind. [04:13:01] :P [04:13:02] oh, was that the SOC project? [04:13:15] davidmccabe, yes, it's finishing marginally faster than yours. :D [04:13:23] mine is a lot harder though :P [04:13:27] Admittedly. [04:13:39] Mine... breaks every assumption in MW. [04:13:41] no, it's what I've been working on since wikimania [04:13:49] ah. [04:13:58] "Switched from
to
all over the place because it seemed like a good idea at the time. Printable display is now even more broken than before as a result." [04:14:00] the SOC project was looking at asynchronous transcode [04:14:14] yeah, because of those bloody descendant selectors of course [04:14:32] and if I fix it it'll break something else, unless I'm really really careful, so it can be a todo for now [04:14:54] Simetrical: hmm? [04:15:14] 03tstarling * r25467 10/trunk/extensions/OggHandler/ (9 files): [04:15:14] * Implemented thumbtime and noplayer parameters as planned. [04:15:14] * Added pretty icons from Crystal Project, licensed under LGPL. [04:15:14] * Fixed audio display, now looks kind of OK in both gallery and vertically constrained environments. [04:15:14] * Replaced the rapidly growing parameter list for wgOggPlayer.init() with an associative array. [04:15:17] * Switched from

[04:15:40] about div tags [04:15:51] I know diffs were changed or something [04:18:04] VoiceOfAll, I was quoting Tim's last commit. [04:18:12] Simetrical: so have you seen it now? are you going to take back your scoff? [04:18:18] it's like 2000 lines of code or something [04:18:37] TimStarling, no, really, it's a great thing to have. No objections from me. Excellent work, and all. [04:19:04] contributions to MW, PEAR and Cortado [04:19:22] Oh, they let you de-suckify PEAR a little? [04:19:48] no, I just fixed up a PEAR module to process Ogg files [04:19:53] ooh [04:19:54] fancy [04:19:58] added theora support, etc. [04:21:56] you seem to be experienced. what sucks so much about php? what would be a good alternative? [04:22:03] padde, Python. [04:22:09] padde, or, if you hate Python, probably Perl. [04:22:20] Both are made by non-retarded people. [04:22:25] C++ [04:22:36] padde: Basically, anything else. [04:22:38] You might also look at Ruby, although that's a newcomer. [04:22:42] davidmccabe, shell scripts are worse. [04:22:45] they're all slow [04:22:51] Virtually all other languages were designed by people who know something about computer science. [04:22:55] C++ is fast [04:22:56] Simetrical: then why is PHP being chosen by non-retarded people for nearly EVERY bigger web application? [04:23:08] padde, biggest installation base. The network effect. [04:23:08] padde: It's not. [04:23:25] Hello-I am have a very basic problem with templates such as Template:Cite_news and Template:Cite_web <<---what code do I actually need to place in those files so that when I ref them in an article they are displayed properly [04:23:29] padde, especially for Web apps. Most Web hosts offer PHP, not necessarily Python or Perl. [04:23:39] padde, so most new web developers learn PHP. [04:23:54] TimStarling, Haskell is as fast as C++. You should use Haskell. [04:23:58] davidmccabe: it definitely is. i'd say 50% of websits i'm passing during my everyday surfing are being served by php [04:24:07] TimStarling: Sometimes just hanging around you sheds some light onto the MediaWiki source code. [04:24:18] haskell has the disadvantage of being completely insane [04:24:24] haha [04:24:26] which C++ only partially shares [04:24:38] TimStarling, but very coherently insane. [04:24:42] TimStarling: Writing in an HLL can actually free you up to write more efficient code. [04:24:55] davidmccabe, have you done a rigged productivity study? [04:25:02] Or is it just personal experience? [04:25:08] *Simetrical wants to learn Haskell sometime for the hell of it [04:25:30] Simetrical: You should learn Haskell because it'll expand your mind. [04:25:34] anyone?? been struggly with this for a few days now, i tried pasting what wikipedia has inside of those files but to no avail [04:25:34] ... That's pretty much the only reason. [04:25:40] struggling* [04:25:49] hype: sorry, I have no idea. [04:26:00] Simetrical: where expand = blow. [04:26:05] hype, you need to copy all the templates called by those. And all the ones called by those, and so on. Also, install ParserFunctions. [04:26:25] davidmccabe, don't functional programming adherents claim it's potentially faster, blah blah blah? [04:26:32] It can be faster. [04:26:35] And, like, better for multithreading, and so on? [04:26:38] Simetrical: You should learn Haskell because it'll expand your mind. [04:26:42] Better for multithreading is interesting. [04:26:44] There are more optimizations possible because the compiler can make more assumptions. [04:26:44] my head's too big already [04:27:12] Like, theoretically Haskell statements can be reordered, right? [04:27:20] Eh, any mind that doesn't think it needs expanding is too small. [04:27:31] Simetrical: yeah, basically you could inline the whole problam :) [04:27:33] *program [04:27:34] excellent, where do you reccomend I retrieve Template: Cite news and web and what have you [04:27:40] And are independent of each other? So the compiler should be able to make threads automatically. [04:27:42] In theory. [04:27:43] wikipedia.org's seems to have a lotof excess on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cite_news [04:27:47] *Simetrical doubts it works like that in practice [04:27:50] for just a basic template [04:27:51] apparently PHP 4 can be compiled [04:27:51] Simetrical: I guess, if it was really smart. [04:27:55] I haven't tried it though [04:27:58] hype, pick some other Wikipedia then. [04:28:08] Simetrical: the real win is that since order doesn't matter, there are no contention issues etc. if you do it right. [04:28:24] ok, thank you [04:28:26] strongly typed languages have an obvious advantage when it comes to speed [04:28:33] davidmccabe, well, we don't want "really smart". If an assembly optimizer were "really smart" it could construct a provably optimal implementation of any algorithm provided (barring halting problem etc.). [04:28:36] TimStarling: I wonder how that compares to APC/eaccelerator stuff [04:28:39] I want "sort of smart". [04:28:46] TimStarling: You know, I may be wrong, [04:28:51] but I think that at this point, WP is big enough, [04:28:55] If we needed twice as many servers, [04:28:58] We would get twice as many servers. [04:29:11] oooh, bad move :P [04:29:12] davidmccabe, well, we did. [04:29:19] I think. [04:29:21] Or are planning to. [04:29:25] Well then there you go. [04:29:28] But it was delayed for months due to budgeting concerns. [04:29:30] "Performance doesn't matter. We'll get as many servers as we need" is NOT a good thing to say in front of Tim [04:29:36] although domas would be worse [04:29:40] People are now addicted enough to wikipedia that speed doesn't matter. [04:29:45] Yeah it does. [04:29:50] well it can't go too slow [04:30:01] Sure. [04:30:15] Many mirrors beat Wikipedia soundly when it comes to speed and reliability. [04:30:15] But you don't want to write it in assembler. [04:30:25] Speed is not the only thing. [04:30:27] TimStarling: did wikimedia always have APC or some equivalent? [04:30:38] Well, assembler is slower than C, in practice, for an entire program. [04:30:45] Because you use macros up the wazoo. [04:30:55] VoiceOfAll: I'm not sure [04:30:56] And no compiler gets to optimize them away. [04:31:04] *wikipedia* certainly hasn't [04:31:10] but wikimedia is younger than wikipedia [04:31:28] Tim seems single-mindedly focused on speed. [04:31:42] Speed is great. I'm advocating switching to git, and one of the big reason is speed. [04:31:42] 04(REOPENED) Timestamp support for categorymembers query - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10890 +comment (10stephen.bain) [04:31:58] I'd like to see compiled php 4 verses php 4 with APC [04:32:00] But there's linear-vs.-quadratic speed, and then there's saving-jumps speed. [04:32:14] if I'm single-mindedly focused on speed, how is it that I'm not even paying enough attention to this conversation to justify what I said about C++? [04:32:58] no, the thing in the other window is not to do with speed :) [04:33:01] Simetrical: What parser functions do you reccomend I install for the template usage [04:33:02] *davidmccabe glances nervously at the horrible O(n^2) algorithm in liquidthreads. [04:33:20] davidmccabe: which one? [04:33:21] *davidmccabe wanders off. [04:33:26] NotAMused: buildThread or something? [04:33:28] I forget the name. [04:33:40] hype, the ParserFunctions extension. [04:33:46] Efficient schema coming right up ;) [04:34:13] davidmccabe, did you solve tree versioning? [04:34:15] NotAMused: Basically I wrote a metric ton of highly inefficient code the last month in order to get something to work. Next I'll go back and make it efficient. [04:34:19] Simetrical: not fully. [04:34:28] The frustrating thing is that there are perfectly great ways to do it. [04:34:33] Just not in a relational database. [04:34:41] are wikimedia sites supposed to have LQs? [04:34:43] *davidmccabe wanders off. [04:34:46] VoiceOfAll, eventually. [04:34:54] When It's Done. [04:35:06] It should probably be enabled by default, When It's Done. [04:35:13] I'm always afraid of queries in flagged revs, trying to cut the fat as much as I can [04:35:36] It's not queries you need to be afraid of, it's bad queries. [04:35:36] I know that being runnable on WM sites will put a high standard on the code [04:35:37] LQs? LiquidThreads? [04:35:45] You can run a ton of good queries and no one cares. [04:36:00] Running one bad query per page view will cause the wrath of domas to descend upon you. [04:36:04] Simetrical: There is Parser phase 2, parser tools, a few others - would you mind linking me to the one you are spec. mentioning? thank you [04:36:25] hype, http://www.google.com/search?q=ParserFunctions+extension [04:36:29] thanks [04:36:31] Simetrical: that depends on the definition of "bad" [04:37:05] TimStarling, a table scan will do it. [04:37:10] if bad means more than about 200ms, you'll have the whole user base of wikipedia descend upon you because the site will be down [04:37:11] Table scan with filesort for bonus points. [04:37:18] what's the best way to upgrade from 1.4.10? yes it's ancient [04:37:37] jwang, back up first. Then try just dropping in the newest files and running update.php. [04:37:48] jwang, if that doesn't work, you can try upgrading more incrementally. [04:37:52] TimStarling: why does the 'view source' tab not show for cascade protection, was it a waste like page counters? [04:38:15] VoiceOfAll: yes. [04:38:18] VoiceOfAll, well, what's the query for cascade protection? [04:38:29] VoiceOfAll: TimStarling convinced me to avoid the extra query per pageview in doing that. [04:38:32] Simetrical: sounds good. thanks :) [04:39:17] NotAMused, you bastard. You're acting like flyingparchment now. [04:39:38] Simetrical: huh? [04:39:45] Changing your nick. [04:39:49] oh [04:39:50] And completely confusing me. [04:39:50] :P [04:39:54] :D [04:39:57] Until you say something that makes me whois you. [04:40:26] *chat-de-plafond opens up the code [04:40:46] SELECT ... FROM templatelinks, page_restrictions WHERE tl_namespace=N AND tl_title='S' AND tl_from=pr_page AND pr_cascade=1 [04:41:08] I've tested 1.3 -> 1.10 in a single step [04:41:11] worked for me [04:41:21] Hmm, that query doesn't suck too much, does it? [04:41:53] Simetrical: well it also does a second query on those pages [04:41:59] joining on page_restrictions [04:42:02] Select the row from templatelinks, join using tl_from=pr_page, scan all the results. [04:42:28] VoiceOfAll, that wouldn't be needed to just check whether or not the page is cascade-protected. [04:42:44] Actually, you could add a LIMIT 1 to make it O(1), I think. [04:42:48] Well, not quite. [04:42:57] You still need to scan until you get to a row with pr_cascade=1. [04:43:01] well, 'view source' does not apply to admins [04:43:03] But it should be Fast Enough(TM). [04:43:07] you need to sum all the restrictions [04:43:12] Simetrical: http://www.devanywhere.com/ViewPub.php?id=23 [04:43:13] Hmm. True. [04:43:15] that's the code [04:43:16] then decide [04:43:44] chat-de-plafond, I do have a local copy of MW, you know. [04:44:03] Simetrical: also for VoA's benefit. [04:44:12] *VoiceOfAll has a local test wiki [04:44:28] the cascading restrictions query is only on parser cache miss, not on page view [04:44:32] that's why it's tolerable [04:44:33] 2 versions running from the same db (MW and MW_trunk) [04:44:40] because parser cache misses are slow already [04:44:56] TimStarling: not only that, it's when you try to DO something to it [04:45:09] $do_espensive_queries or whatever. [04:46:48] at least, that's how I implemented it. [04:46:50] TimStarling: I mean it's certainly not the End of Teh World (TM), would be nice to have the right tab, but not sure if it's worth it [04:47:48] VoiceOfAll: you should be asking chat-de-plafond [04:48:26] uh oh [04:49:07] positive: we get the right tab; negative: extra query on parser miss [04:49:32] Simetrical: LIMIT would not be applied till after the scan [04:49:44] VoiceOfAll, sure it would. [04:50:02] Otherwise SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 1 would be a table scan. [04:50:19] it has a join though [04:50:21] The only time it has to be applied after the whole result set is read is if you're doing something like ORDER BY without indexes. [04:50:37] Yes, and MySQL is clever enough to stop as soon as it has enough matching rows from the second table in the join. [05:02:51] how does one insert unicode U+2758 and make wikipedia display the char? [05:03:25] ૆ [05:03:34] I think [05:03:35] thanks [05:13:38] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:OggHandler [05:14:51] *amidaniel gives TimStarling a cookie [05:16:53] 03(mod) Change sitename of is.wikibooks - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11175 trivial->15enhancement; +shell; summary (10raimond.spekking) [05:26:20] night [05:27:47] im trying to use Special:MIMEsearch on en.wikisource.org, but it is returning no data.

[06:48:43] indeed :D [06:48:57] Whatcha need? [06:52:02] well... I was looking at Notebook... but even if I figure out the installation for myself, it looks like something I wouldn't recommend to newbies. [06:52:38] but... at the same time, it seems llike Notebook is one of the only suitable programs for what I want - external and offline wiki editing, for creating and editingwiki pages; also for keeping my own notes in wiki style. [06:54:14] What platform are you on? [06:54:41] My personal recommendation would be someting along the lines of vim, and on unix systems, wikipediafs looks awful nifty [06:54:50] I'm on Xubuntu Linux [06:55:07] vim - does that mean learning the vi commands? [06:55:34] Ah, then have a peek at http://wikipediafs.sourceforge.net/ [06:55:52] I'm using zim wiki at the moment for my personal notes - which is pretty good in principle, but buggy (and apparently not maintained) [06:56:30] Oh, are you just looking for a desktop wiki? [06:56:48] By "external" editor I thought you were looking for online editing of sites like wikipedia [06:59:13] sorry - ChatZilla wouldn't let me type, so I restarted. [06:59:31] amidaniel: I'm looking for both. Ideally in the one program. [07:00:06] Hrm .. well, I don't know of any such program personally [07:01:29] ok... I'm surprised they haven't become more popular... [07:01:42] the wiki-style personal editors, I mean. [07:02:15] Well, wiki is generally something *collaborative* so it doesn't make too much sense as something *personal* :) [07:02:43] There are all sorts of programs that will keep local revision history, and several that will support markups such as mediawiki's [07:02:48] yeah... but for linking draft pages... and also for organizing notes, it's very handy, I find. [07:02:54] ok [07:03:19] where would I find them? I've been having trouble. [07:03:27] re WikipediaFS - do you find it's well-supported, and not too buggy? [07:03:56] I've not had a chance to tool around with wikipediafs but have been meaning to [07:04:11] The feedback I've seen has not seemed to report many problems with it [07:04:40] And local revision history is built into all sorts of programs, like OpenOffice, eclipse, etc. [07:05:18] somehow wikipediafs doesnt seem all that helpful [07:06:04] not all that helpful for personal notes, or...? [07:06:14] 03(mod) Change sitename of is.wikibooks - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11175 (10steinninn) [07:07:17] amidaniel: with a program like OpenOffice I'd have to get used to its way of doing things... I like the idea of doing all my note-taking and editing in the one place, or at least in places that work the same way. [07:07:18] for anything [07:07:57] sorry just noticed it was NathanJY made the comment about WFS not seeming helpful :) [07:08:16] you mean that you prefer to just edit online? [07:08:40] Yes [07:08:52] What's the advantage to editing hrough an FS? [07:09:01] I don't know ... I've long wanted an application that worked like a MediaWiki "shell" .. wikipediaFS isn't quite the approach I'd take, but I see it as a step in the right direction [07:09:09] It's not like you're going to have a giant list of all articles in one directory [07:09:16] Primarily just convenience and speed ... not needing to access the UI [07:09:30] 03(mod) Changing the text when a wiki doesn't exist - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11125 normal->high; +comment (10steinninn) [07:09:43] Simetrical|away: mod_proctitle is not buggy! [07:09:49] it never was! :) [07:09:58] *domas nukes Tim for libel [07:09:59] it's convenient to type a url in the 'locate file' dialog as opposed to in a browser? [07:10:15] being able to run macros easily, and search and replace, would be cool. [07:10:19] WikEd does some of that. [07:10:53] I just forsee I nifty shell, where I can "vi Bob" "rm Foo" "mv Dave Joe", etc. [07:11:01] a* [07:11:12] a specific editor would be nicer [07:11:26] There are many of those [07:11:31] I like the idea of being able to open a page on my laptop, work on it while I'm not connected (traveling, whatever) and then later be able to upload it easily. [07:11:45] I can do that now, kind of, but it involves a lot more steps and juggling files. [07:11:50] Yes, more of the svn approach [07:12:14] It still needs to retrieve it while your'e online thoughk, the difference is that you wouldn't just have to save an offline copy manually [07:12:23] I've started up a few client apps like this, but usually got tired of em after a while :) [07:12:41] yes - of course I get online where i can. [07:12:58] traveling in Indonesia at the moment - don't always have net access. [07:13:12] and sometimes it's super slow. [07:14:53] I'm only semi-geeky, so pardon if I'm slow to pick things up :) [07:15:36] I'd just save the files manually [07:15:55] ideally there'd bee a mediawikia specific editor for all of this [07:16:20] what's a good program though? OpenOffice doesn't have tools to make wikiediting easier... unless there's an add-on. [07:16:59] I haven't been following any [07:17:07] I'm also thinking about what's good for other users (I'm one of the co-founders of Appropedia.org, and trying to make things as accessible as possible, especially for those in the 3rd world) [07:17:14] there are wiki like editors, but none that i've tried for mediawiki [07:17:27] what's appropopedia? [07:17:47] sustainable development wiki... only been going for about 15 months, but taking off. [07:18:41] have you tried any wiki editors that seem useful... assuming you didn't have permanent web access and wanted to edit offline? [07:19:01] (I'm thinking I should check the software in the OLPC project... ) [07:21:07] Is there a straightforward way to debug memcached caching? [07:22:34] When enabling memcached, my site hangs for half a minute or so before displaying anything; it's probably waiting for a timeout, but everything should be configured correctly. [07:23:34] memcached? [07:23:40] you have multiple apache servers? :) [07:24:17] No, I have a single lighttpd server. [07:24:27] :) [07:24:31] then don't bother with memcached/ [07:25:07] intgr: APC-based cache works best [07:25:41] and if you use APC, configure lighty this way: [07:25:41] http://p.defau.lt/?u9haZiGBPLJGmMHo015h3A [07:25:54] Thanks domas. [07:26:20] then.. $wgMainCacheType = CACHE_ACCEL; [07:26:28] And that's it? [07:26:35] well, APC has to be enabled [07:26:45] APC-backed cache is like... 10x faster than memcached. [07:27:11] I'm using spawn-fcgi, is that okay? [07:28:30] you want PHP to spawn PHP [07:28:37] cause then you have single caching environment [07:30:54] (and conserve quite some memory too) [07:32:09] on the other hand, you can do any way you want :) [07:33:23] php-cgi does not appear to support listening FastCGI on UNIX sockets though... [07:34:11] Which is problematic since I don't want random local users connecting to my PHP backend. [07:39:12] what would be a good IDE for developing in PHP (although I know now that PHP sucks)... Eclipse PDT? how to comfortably debug? Zend debugger? [07:40:32] Real men use debug_print_stacktrace() ;) [07:40:46] backtrace [07:43:20] intgr: you know, i used to write many shell scripts and stuff, only with a simple editor and bash -x (at most)... i realise now how much time I wasted because I didn't have 'good' debugging and coding facilities at hand. now that i have to start a project which involves php scripting, I want to do it right - as comfortable as possible ;) [07:43:28] 03(mod) Template parameters unavailable to parser tags - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2257 +comment (10mediazilla.20.nickj) [07:44:17] but i guess i'll go over to #php for all that ;) [08:08:45] hello there [08:17:14] Hi, some MediaWikis without query.php and/or api.php, How to get it?

[08:20:44] and I, any idea ;) [08:20:48] Tuxbublin1: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access [08:21:21] Tuxbublin1: You might want to search Google before asking stupid questions. [08:23:09] i don't see answer in this page i allready read to my "stupid question" [08:24:05] The 'Restrict account creation' section points to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmAccount [08:24:56] i tried this yesterday [08:25:00] doesn't work [08:25:13] as a user cannot create his own account [08:25:17] So why not start there? Why "doesn't it work"? How "doesn't it work"? [08:25:19] or i didn't get it :/ [08:26:21] intgr, any idea about mine? [08:26:30] OsamaK: No. [08:26:53] Tuxbublin1: We're not #mindreaders, please explain. [08:28:09] intgr: the extension if i understood correctly, completly block account creation, only sysops can ask bureaucrats to make the account or not [08:28:40] No. [08:29:04] Bureaucrats can approve/reject new accoints. [08:29:18] accounts [08:30:09] Tuxbublin1: Did you change your $wgGroupPermissions?

My $wgEmergencyContact doesn't :/ [08:39:29] intgr, if someone delete it, how to get it again? [08:39:42] OsamaK: Copy it from a MediaWiki 1.10 distribution [08:39:45] intgr, can I copy it from somewhere for examply [08:39:54] Yes. [08:40:13] intgr, URL?

[08:41:54] You need access to the server to put it there.

[09:48:12] Aviator: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Parameters_to_index.php [09:51:24] it just lists general parameters [09:52:47] «Most special pages have additional parameters, specific to the function they perform.

[12:56:57] Think it would be better to simply upgrade? whole new installation? [12:58:17] Isn't there a FAQ for this somewhere?

[13:02:48] my problem is that i check if the article exists ($article->exists()) and if not i insert with doEdit EDIT_NEW [13:03:24] otherwise with the 3rd option of doEdit filled with EDIT_UPDATE [13:03:51] but it does always (even if the article exists, make an EDIT_NEW [13:05:22] code at: http://pastey.net/73374 [13:08:09] and throws an error that the page with that namespace already exists [13:09:13] hey TimLaqua :) [13:09:18] what's the dilly [13:18:56] ok. just leaving doEdit without 3rd option solved it.

[15:30:12] VoiceOfAll then why not make the entire IPv6 address capitalized? User:FF:ED:3D [15:30:26] it does [15:30:41] I was wondering where I can edit the output of notices so i can wrap them in a div? [15:31:07] Special:Allmessages [15:31:21] All notices, messages and God knows what else are linked there [15:31:26] RoanKattouw: but that example above is what would happen if it didn't ;) [15:31:29] Only admins can edit them [15:31:35] Yeah ok [15:31:58] roscoe the most common one is MediaWiki:Sitenotice, which appears above every page [15:32:11] FYI, some ircds use '0::1' instead of '0:0:...:0:1' [15:32:18] VoiceOfAll do you know what the "Block anonymous users only" switch on Special:Blockip does? [15:32:40] it blocks non-logged in users [15:32:51] RoanKattouw, what file is that code available? [15:32:55] which really are less anonymous ;) [15:32:59] Right so if I block Bob [15:33:05] I'll really just block anon edits from his IP? [15:33:09] I don't know why we call IP's 'anons' [15:33:11] (using that switch of course) [15:33:31] roscoe just go to the Special:Allmessages page on your wiki [15:33:47] You'll get a truckload of links to MediaWiki:Something pages [15:33:59] Those are the system messages, and you can edit them (if you're a sysop) [15:34:18] 03(mod) don't advertise "create account" if not allowed - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11177 (10jidanni) [15:34:35] MediaWiki:Sitenotice is one of the most used messages, because it appears above every page [15:35:06] VoiceOfAll is my statement correct then? If I block Bob with the anononly switch, will Bob be blocked entirely, or will he just be unable to contribute anonymously? [15:35:11] (Bob being a registered user) [15:35:57] You can't 'block' Bob with 'anononly' [15:36:03] you can block his IP with anononly [15:36:11] in which case he can log in to edit [15:36:39] Right [15:37:17] intgr: right, if there are a lot of zeros, you can put the :: in many different places, using more or less 0s [15:37:21] So "block anonymous users only" is really the same as "disable anonymous edits for this IP"? [15:37:33] Does 11177 look invalid to anyone else? The only way to fix it is another new message, and that seems like instruction creep - switching between two messages based on config, where, in all cases, one of them will never be used seems like a bad idea [15:37:37] yes [15:37:38] But when you normalize it, it becomes 0:0:0...0:1 anyway [15:39:32] ST47 I'd say we leave Log in / Create as it is now and create a new message for when the IP in question can't create an account [15:39:40] 'Cause he's right, it is misleading [15:40:06] Including when blocked with ACB? [15:40:06] I'm new to MW and when I go to edit a page at the bottom of the editor is says templates used and lists them. When i go to create my own page and edit it i would like to use those templates. how do i access them? [15:40:13] At the very least it's not INVALID, although it could be WONTFIXed [15:40:15] ACB? [15:40:23] account creation blocked [15:40:27] Right [15:40:35] I guess so, yeah [15:40:39] *ST47 goes to look [15:41:04] roscoe you only see the templates that are used in the page you're editing at that moment. Your user page doesn't use those templates (or uses different templates) [15:41:17] To use a template called Template:Example, just do {{example}} [15:42:07] ahh i see, and how do i create my own templates? [15:42:17] Just create a page called Template:Whatever [15:42:23] And put some stuff in there [15:42:32] Thank you [15:42:37] Then {{whatever}} will be automatically replaced with the contents of Template:Whatever [15:42:41] No problem [15:42:46] Gotta go now though [15:42:49] Bye all [15:43:55] MediaWiki uses the SERVER_NAME variable for its redirects by default; with HTTPS and lighttpd, this name is set to the common name of the certificate, which may be something like *.example.org [15:44:18] Is there a reason why SERVER_NAME is preferred over HTTP_HOST? [15:45:33] From what I recall... HTTP_HOST is sent by the client... and not all clients send it... [15:45:58] Well, HTTP_HOST is already used as a fallback. [15:46:08] *fallback* [15:46:20] ^_^ Maybe someone should make it work the other way around... [15:46:31] I am wondering if it would be a good idea to switch those. [15:47:29] All HTTP/1.0-compliant clients must send the 'Host' header, and in practice they do. [15:47:36] Well, HTTP_HOST is probably what appears in the client's URL bar, if it's sent. [15:47:52] So it makes sense to use it if it differs from SERVER_NAME, surely. [15:47:59] intgr, really? I thought Host was HTTP 1.1. [15:48:00] *Simetrical looks [15:48:23] As far as I can recall. [15:49:07] I don't see Host defined anywhere in 1.0. http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/1.0/draft-ietf-http-spec.html [15:49:12] It's required in 1.1, though. [15:49:43] Indeed, it's not there. [15:49:58] Allowing virtual hosting was a big plus of HTTP 1.1. [15:50:20] And incidentally, any client that makes a habit of not sending Host headers will be unable to use most of the current World Wide Web, exactly because all vhosts will break. [15:50:31] Yep. [15:50:48] Of course if you want to be silly you can send silly Host headers, if vhosting isn't in place, but that's your problem. [15:50:51] Any developer can help me to find how to set the initial level numbering for h1 headers? [15:51:02] 03aaron * r25480 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/FlaggedRevs.php: *Make $title to pass into parse(), it is taken by reference and throws errors when a field (article->mTitle) goes in on some setups. [15:51:11] (I'm reminded of the prank where you adjust the victim's hosts files to redirect all traffic to kittenwars.com, which happens not to be vhosted.) [15:51:12] Simetrical: Then you'll just get awkward redirects. :) [15:51:20] I'm playing with Parser.php, about line 3464, but I can't get what I want [15:51:33] omgs, initial level numbering? What do you mean? [15:52:01] Simetrical: It seems hardcoded that

start always in 1 [15:52:06] If you have any specific questions about what a function does or whatever, you can ask, but Parser code is a mess and I wouldn't expect any dev to be self-sacrificial enough to try digging through it for you. [15:52:13] I want to be able to give a custom number, like 5 [15:52:20] Er, yes, it does. That's because it's the first heading. [15:52:23] Should I create a bug, post on the mailing list or anything? [15:52:35] intgr, sure, why not? [15:53:08] Simetrical: do you understand what I want? [15:53:20] omgs, I think so, but it's a kind of odd thing to want. [15:53:54] I'm using for personal purpose several "chapters", and having them numbered always as 1, it's no good :( [15:54:43] I've sucessfully written an extension to use css to add a prefix to the headings, but I need something else [15:55:21] I've got somehow numbering, but I'd like to contribute it and the css numbering doesn't work with IE (which I'm not fan of) [15:55:27] Maybe you'd be best off disabling section numbering and adding the numbers manually to the header? [15:55:43] Simetrical: too much work [15:55:53] Um, well, good luck, then. [15:56:18] Simetrical: do you think it will be interesting if it doesn't work with IE? [15:56:27] Is there a way to hide the username and display the users full name when browsing history and other such actions? [15:56:43] 03brion * r25481 10/trunk/phase3/includes/SpecialUpload.php: [15:56:43] Fix the fix in r25439, which incorrectly assumed that normalized extensions are the same length as their non-normalized forms. This isn't true: JPEG vs jpg for instance. :) [15:56:43] Additionally, makes the AJAX checks for non-exact matches work when an exact [15:56:43] match isn't present; wfFindFile() checks local and shared repository, but [15:56:43] returns no object if there isn't an exact match. Falling back to wfLocalFile() [15:56:46] to get an object so the checks go through. [15:56:48] omgs, interesting as in what? As in being committed to the software? It's too narrow to commit to the software anyway, even if it worked with IE. [15:57:11] Simetrical: to contribute it as another extension, to whoever it might be useful [15:57:12] 03brion * r25482 10/trunk/phase3/includes/SpecialUpload.php: And remove some debug loggin :) [15:57:18] 03tstarling * r25483 10/trunk/extensions/OggHandler/OggPlayer.js: Pretty boxes make for happy Brion.

[19:21:56] TimLaqua_workin: its a type of lossy audio compression [19:22:08] so why are people interested in it? [19:22:15] TimLaqua_workin: yes ogg is specific to audio (however it can also be used to compress the audio channel in videos) [19:22:19] like... what's good about it? [19:22:25] it's free? [19:22:28] dunno [19:22:29] ogg is a container format [19:22:33] *Jack_Phoenix prefers .mp3 ;) [19:22:34] vorbis is an audio encoding [19:22:38] theora is a video encoding [19:22:44] TimLaqua_workin: its free, and has a better compression ratio then mp3 [19:22:50] .ogg file may be either audio or video :) [19:22:54] 03(mod) Subst should work for parameters - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6305 (10mr.heat) [19:23:05] cool.

[19:57:18] Noble if you use Windows you can connect such a share to a drive such as Z: or X: [19:57:30] Then you can link to file:///X:/path/to/file [19:58:15] yeah, but unfortunately, we don't do it that way here at the office [19:58:21] and I'm not likely going to be able to change that [19:58:30] Hmm [19:58:34] i wonder if file://\\server\share would work [19:58:35] Then I don't know, sorry [19:58:38] Try [19:59:20] using a single bracket, mediawiki does not seem to recognize it as a link [19:59:36] Noble, firefox restrictions would block even file:/// links [20:01:23] Noble I believe MediaWiki doesn't allow linking to file:/// links by default [20:01:27] You can change that somewhere [20:01:49] But you need to have access to MediaWiki's config files [20:07:33] 03amidaniel * r25508 10/branches/ApiEdit_Vodafone/includes/api/ApiEditPage.php: Fix up URL in example a bit.

[20:10:53] "remote files" - don't think so. [20:11:14] Duesentrieb I don't know about Windows, but in Firefox under Linux, file:/// (three slashes) links work [20:11:35] RoanKattouw: yes. i know that works. but file://host/path doesn't. [20:11:47] No [20:11:52] which you wouldn't expect to work on linux anyway i guess [20:11:57] No [20:12:06] smb://host/path works in KDE [20:12:09] but on windows, you would. and that's what most people want. and that's what MSIE does. and that'S why i said it. [20:12:15] Right [20:12:17] yes, i know about samba [20:12:21] Well remote files are bitches anyway [20:12:25] it's beside the point. [20:12:35] They really should mount them on Z:, Y:, X:, etc. [20:12:36] sure. Noble wanted them [20:12:44] yes. that's what i recommended [20:13:50] Wheres query.php anyone?

Is it possible to enable the use of this mediawiki for also wikis on other servers? [20:31:16] ZeiP: huh? define "other servers". [20:31:34] ZeiP: to use software x on computer y, software x must be installed on computer y.... [20:32:00] ZeiP: is this for multiple platforms, multiple wikis, separate wikis with shared common areas, etc.? [20:32:49] They're all currently on the same server, but I'd also need these files from the commons-style media wiki to work on wiki installations that are not on that server. [20:33:29] Aahh, synchronization of some sort. I assume you're talking beyond RSS/ATOM feeds? [20:33:41] no hes talking about uploaded files [20:34:27] ZeiP: right? anyway - it *might* be possible with 1.11 (ask TimStarling); before that, the *files* must be accessible on the other server. i.e. you would have to use an NFS mount or something similar [20:35:10] at least i think that's needed... not entirely sure anymore. [20:35:12] Yes. I have a Wikimedia Commons, a few Wikipedias that are using the same server and can access the files at Commons. Now I want some additional wikis that are _not_ on the same server to be able to access these files. [20:35:31] Mmh. I thought of NFS mount but I don't think that's an option :( [20:35:50] why not? [20:36:03] anway, $wgSharedUploadDirectory is the critical point. [20:36:12] Yep. [20:36:30] Isn't root access needed for NFS? [20:37:17] I only have root access at the "other server", the server that hosts this media-wiki and those few wikis that currently work is a shared host. [20:37:18] generally yes. [20:38:36] TimStarling: is $wgSharedUploadDirectory still needed with your new file storage backend? or does it allow access to a shared repos without having access to the actual files? [20:40:00] you still need access to the files for now [20:40:23] the task left to do is to write a new class that accesses the files via some other means [20:40:34] but currently the filesystem is the only implemented method [20:41:23] TimStarling: hm, ok. but... what does it need direct access to the file for, anyway? [20:41:42] if it needs a thumb, it can just call thumb.php, right? [20:42:25] to upgrade the file metadata [20:42:49] and to create thumbnails [20:42:58] hmmm [20:43:07] upgrade metadata? no. it doesn't have a db entries for files from the shared repos anyway [20:43:17] you could probably remove that requirement easily enough [20:43:21] i see no real reason. [20:43:21] 03(mod) Adding class to delete table - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11185 (10wiki) [20:43:26] it most certainly does have DB entries [20:43:32] that's why it's called ForeignDBRepo [20:43:41] because it uses the DB [20:43:56] err, i mean it doesn't in its "own" image table [20:44:04] it has access to the repo'S image table, yes. [20:44:17] Is there a guide somewhere to help with migrating query.php to api? [20:44:26] but i didn't know it would also *write* to that... it feels odd... this should be left to the repo server. [20:44:31] we used to use commons at yaseo, without FS access [20:44:40] but it had access to a r/o DB [20:44:53] but that's regressed now, you'd need to do some hacking to make that work again [20:45:20] ok. anyway, it would be nice to have a backend that doesn't need file access to work. [20:45:32] so, basically, to use a repos from another server, you need NFS? [20:45:52] yes [20:46:06] not for any good reason of course [20:46:19] right. so ZeiP is just out of luck, i guess [20:46:23] just because that's the backwards compatible way of doing it [20:46:35] BC comes first, then features second [20:47:06] Mmh. Well, I'm kind of used to it... Thanks anyway, and I hope it'll work some day :) [20:50:27] What makes "intermediate revisions not shown" <- that happen? [20:50:52] oremj: comparing two non-adjacant revisions [20:51:08] it basically sais "there are x edits in between". [20:51:35] hmm it does that when I click last on some edits [20:51:38] without that message, the diff may bislead you to think that all changes where made by the editor mentioned on the right side of the diff [20:51:49] why would I be missing revisions? [20:52:05] if they where really missing, that message wouldn't show up [20:52:33] anyway, there should be a number before that message [20:52:39] x intermediate revisions not shown [20:52:44] hmm, any reason they wouldn't show up in the history log? [20:52:50] nope [20:53:20] if I click (last) though it shouldn't really have any intermediate revisions should it? [20:53:27] or am I not understanding (last) [20:53:57] i don't see (last) [20:55:04] http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fox_tossing&action=history <- beside each revision [20:55:08] it says (cur) (last) [20:55:54] im trying to get around how to install patches [20:55:59] like this one: http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/attachment.cgi?id=2140&action=view [20:56:14] 03(mod) blacklist extension handling is broken - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11142 (10brion) [20:56:15] do i have to open each file identified there and make the alterations myself?
