[00:00:00] teaa: ä should be tunred into %C3%A4 [00:00:19] wow yeah, than it works [00:00:27] teaa: if it gets mangeled to somethign else... you have something strange going on, with redirects or something [00:00:29] so what can be the error? [00:00:36] i have not the slightest clue [00:00:49] the search box is a simple html form, triggering a get request. [00:01:01] isn't it the %that gets escaped itself? [00:01:04] which should give you a correctly encoded url. [00:01:17] BrokenArrow: yes, but why? [00:01:19] is it a firefox error? because if I just write "" in the url, than it gets converted to the posted one by me ... (wrong one) [00:01:29] so it's no wiki prob, but a firefox one?? [00:01:43] teaa: actually... please try another browser, or on a different computer. some browser plugins can cause this (including some spyware, iirc) [00:01:45] What version of Firefox? [00:01:52] newest [00:01:56] teaa: is that an apache setup in which you changed nothing when upgrading MW? [00:01:57] of the 2. branch [00:02:06] yes it's apache I think [00:02:44] teaa: if it turns ä into the wrong codes when you enter it manually, then it's screed up. try a different browser to confirm. try firefox on a different computer - maybe try even the same version of ff somewhere else. [00:03:12] ok good, than I know at least it's nothing probably about mediawiki, but rather about the browser [00:03:14] thanks :) [00:03:25] teaa: also... check if it also happens with google, etc [00:03:32] What's MergeHistory for? [00:03:46] Aviator: mergine page histories, presumably [00:04:10] perhaps history of merging? [00:04:18] ok thanks [00:04:20] o_O [00:04:28] Aviator: ...no. [00:04:36] ok [00:04:48] wanna make sure before translating [00:04:56] http://www.google.de/search?q= gets to http://www.google.de/search?q=%E4 [00:05:52] Aviator: it's a special page for moving 2 pages and their histories together [00:07:34] BrokenArrow: moving? not merging? [00:07:59] merging [00:08:21] actually, source is moved over the destination [00:08:58] much like assimilation [00:09:23] ok, i got the idea [00:10:02] dont' worry, you'll get a more compelte picture once you have seen all the related messages [00:10:57] i'm translating the special page names [00:11:18] so the related messages a bit far off [00:11:36] I know: been there, done that :) [00:12:26] :) [00:12:29] sometimes you will need to change a previous translation when you have more context [00:13:24] context is *important* [00:15:57] context is *everything* ;-) [00:16:36] triple-checking is such a routine for a translator [00:16:57] just to see that everything is done right [00:20:18] random question: when do you think 1.13 is going to start being developed? [00:21:14] when 1.12 is released. [00:21:17] the moment 1.12 is branched off - isn't it about the right time? [00:21:46] Skizzerz, release versions are just snapshots of trunk. We don't have any development cycle. [00:21:53] mmk [00:22:11] read that as "when brion has finished unpacking his stuff and caught up on all the urgent stuff". [00:22:46] Eternal alpha [00:23:03] *BrokenArrow Brion will have a lot of Christmas unpacking to do this year [00:23:07] Simetrical: well, they are revised snapshots [00:23:15] Yes, slightly.

[02:09:36] 'tis a scary article. ;-) [02:10:27] sorry for repeating, but does anyone know what happened to the pagesincategory parser function? [02:10:51] (like where it might be found or something)... because I know it was present in 1.9, but it's not there in 1.11 [02:11:11] Skizzerz: it was an extension function? or a core function? [02:11:35] well, I could've sworn it was core, but it wasn't in CoreParserFunctions.php [02:11:49] Not sure. [02:11:49] I know it was based of the $wgAllowSlowParserFunctions trigger [02:13:21] *TimLaqua shrugs [02:14:18] the string "pagesincategory" appears only once in the MW trunk [02:14:47] and it's genPagesInCategory - not what we're looking for - that's from the BotQuery extension [02:15:13] i'll checkout 1.9 and check there. [02:16:17] nvm, found it [02:16:24] http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6943 [02:17:02] which would explain 1) why it was in the core code on the install and 2) why it wasn't in SVN :P [02:18:04] 03simetrical * r28786 10/trunk/phase3/ (RELEASE-NOTES includes/EditPage.php): Add HTML ID's mw-read-only-warning and mw-anon-edit-warning to warnings when editing to allow CSS styling. [02:18:14] doesn't it say in there that someone implemented it? [02:19:09] comment #2 says that it's "implemented" but idk if that just meant that he pade the patch to do so or if the core was actually changed [02:19:32] good point, it looks like he just posted the patch(es) [02:20:21] speaking of which, though, I think that it would be nice to have that in the core code by default [02:20:24] Bleh, regression.

[02:47:59] is there any reason an rss feed would not work because the source is the same server as the wiki? [02:48:01] http://bahaikipedia.org/User:David/Sandboxrss [02:48:54] mod_rewrite voodoo [02:49:08] looks like you're rewriting the root. [02:50:34] google has no problem pulling http://bahaikinews.org/rss.xml and my server can pull outside feeds [02:50:42] true enough [02:50:47] i can browse to it [02:53:58] u know if you're using wikiRSS or lastRSS ? [02:54:28] i put lastRSS in the folder :p [02:54:42] so there's no wikiRSS.php in the folder? [02:54:45] no [02:57:24] should I use wikiRSS? [02:58:06] dunno, i'm looking at lastRSS [02:58:59] does it matter that both sites are hosted on the same server? [03:00:26] It doesn't seem to like any feeds on that server [03:00:34] try wikiRSS [03:00:37] ok [03:01:29] it shouldn't matter. Just need to have apache or whatever httpd your using setup correctly [03:02:08] darkcode: apache is serving the xml file [03:03:23] can I hardcode the path to the xml file? [03:03:41] the wiki is on public_html and the news site is public_html/bahaikinews [03:03:52] just need to have different virtual hosts and document roots for both sites [03:04:15] darkcode: why won't it serve from the same document root? [03:04:43] well you could use the same document write if your careful with your rewrite rules [03:05:01] err document root [03:05:13] darkcode: you can browse to http://bahaikinews.org/rss.xml [03:05:16] w/o a problem [03:05:39] but here, http://bahaikipedia.org/User:David/Sandboxrss , it looks like lastRSS can't get the file [03:07:34] t0lk: what are the permissions on that xml file in the root? [03:07:42] let me look [03:07:50] ok, looks like a mysql problem then, just answering t0lk's question that them being on the same server shouldn't be a problem [03:08:05] this file? xmlrpc.php [03:08:17] no, the rss.xml file [03:08:43] mysql? when did that enter the picture? [03:08:43] the file's not in the root [03:08:53] t0lk: er... document root? [03:09:06] http://bahaikinews.org/rss.xml <-- that file [03:09:20] yah i can't find it in public_html or public_html/bahaikinews [03:09:35] ;-) then where is it? [03:09:40] i'm looking lol [03:09:56] btw the news site runs on drupal [03:09:57] from within function "". MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'bahaikip_wikidb.rss_cache' doesn't exist (localhost)". [03:10:00] if that matters [03:10:08] that's why I said MySQL problem [03:10:13] check again darkcode [03:10:25] oh, did you trop wikiRSS in there for a sec? [03:10:29] i was about to switch to the other rss thing [03:10:31] yah [03:10:33] but i just removed it [03:10:38] to try and get lastrss working [03:10:42] ya [03:11:41] t0lk: where's the drupal site root? [03:12:13] public_html/bahaikinews [03:12:15] nvm, found it [03:12:17] ;-) [03:12:19] k [03:12:31] and the wiki root is public_html/wiki [03:12:32] ? [03:12:48] or /bahaikipedia [03:12:50] no just public_html [03:13:12] so is there an rss.xml file in public_html/bahaikipedia [03:13:12] ? [03:13:42] no [03:14:03] i'm checking everywhere but can't find it [03:14:38] where's the link to the RSS feed on the drupal site? [03:15:45] http://drupal.org/node/feed [03:16:17] yup, that works. [03:16:29] are you mod_rewriting that /rss.xml to /node/feed? [03:16:38] i changed your sandboxrss page [03:16:41] works now [03:16:44] oh? [03:16:57] how did you do that [03:17:10] look at the RSS address [03:17:18] rss.xml looks like a rewrite [03:17:32] or some sort of drupal voodoo [03:17:40] lol [03:17:47] I run a few drupal sites - no idea what they're doing half the time. [03:17:55] heh [03:18:32] i asked in #drupal-support and someone said "My guess would be in your DB, myself." [03:18:38] for the location of rss.xml [03:18:57] ;-) glad you stopped by #mediawiki then. [03:18:57] how do I figure out if i am mod_rewriting /rss.xml? [03:19:06] look at the .htaccess files [03:19:19] but really, if it was mod_rewriting, it should worked [03:19:29] so i'm pointing at "drupal voodoo" [03:19:48] hm [03:19:49] lol [03:20:00] and the reason it works on google and not from there is the way the feed is opened [03:20:18] $f = @fopen($rss_url, 'r') [03:20:20] the only ones that are not comments out are: [03:20:20] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f [03:20:20] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d [03:20:20] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] [03:20:23] that's how lastRSS opens it [03:20:38] t0lk: don't paste in the channel. ;-) [03:20:43] sorry [03:20:55] but ya, that looks like standard drupal rewrites [03:21:08] pry something about /node/(.*)$ [03:21:18] is there a bot in the pywikipediabots or elsewhere that can help delete red links [03:21:36] ;-) i'll see ya around. wife time. [03:21:40] ok thanks :) [03:41:19] *qsheets is bored so... once again for those who missed the first... [03:41:23] ('08.') [03:41:23] ←( : )→ 05Happy 03Holidays15!! From qsheets [03:41:23] (_._) [03:44:01] hey guys is there any extension or other way to make page names case insensitive? So that This_Page is the same as This_page when accessed through a URL (e.g. wiki/This_Page and wiki/This_page). Be it have it no longer have page names be case sensitive or have an extension that creates pages for various posibilities of the cases and redirect to the original (Which I think would be cumbersome) [03:56:59] BlaenkDenum, no (that I know of). This is something that we would like to implement sometime. [03:57:04] But it would take some work, probably. [03:57:30] oh, oh well thanks at least I know it's being thought of and I'm not just crazy for thinking about this haha [04:17:20] *qsheets is thinking about adding sub-pages to his extension, any objections/suggestions? [04:18:41] ext = [[Extension:IRC Chat]] [04:19:02] btw, is jamasi back yet? [04:30:31] im' here [04:31:31] you know you IRC hasn't been updated in a while, right? [04:31:36] * your [04:32:09] you're talking about my version of your extension? [04:32:50] yup [04:35:37] jamasi: I already have IRC changing colors... it's no biggy [04:36:26] well, I didn't have much time for this particular extension. and as it's working quite well atm. I focused on my skinsystem-extension. [04:36:43] skinsystem? [04:36:58] what's that do? [04:37:08] (as soon as I get the time to write a little bit of documentation I'll release it on mw.org) [04:38:17] well, it gives you the ability to have an arbitrary number of different skins (all editable via normal pages) which are picked either based on the category or the namespace of a page. [04:39:05] oh, just like the old namespace logo thing, nice [04:39:23] well, it's more sophisticated. [04:39:59] you can have dynamic content and it allows modularisation. [04:40:29] anyways...do you think i should add subpages/tabs to my ext for rules/FAQ then you could poss copy/reimplement it on yours? [04:41:28] what would be the function of those tabs? [04:42:21] rules will show when you click on one and a FAQ will show when you click on the other [04:42:46] possibly in a small popup window [04:42:51] in general I don't think additional features are a bad thing, and in this case it might be quite useful. [04:43:19] go for it then? [04:43:40] popup? I'd prefer a "tooltip" done with css. [04:44:03] tooltip? [04:44:50] a div-element which is shown when one touches a link with the cursor. [04:45:05] FAQs and Rules can get pretty long though [04:47:41] if you want to take a glimpse at the skinsystem have a look at http://wiki.piratenpartei.de/Landesverband_Nordrhein-Westfalen and http://wiki.piratenpartei.de/Skin:NRWWeb for the matching skin definition. [04:51:20] jamasi: nice... i'll have a prototype of the tabs done tomorrow [04:51:48] I'll have a look then. [04:54:18] kk [05:06:01] naptime (it's 6am here) [05:18:39] hello [05:22:49] i'm having a strange issue with my wiki [05:22:54] i go to edit a page [05:23:00] and then when i click "save page" [05:23:08] nothing happens [05:23:10] no saving, anything [05:23:25] it just asks if i want to save or open "index.php" [05:23:51] and yes, my mime type for php is set correctly. otherwise the wiki wouldn't work at all methinks :) [05:25:18] any ideas on how to fix it? [05:32:41] :( [05:33:46] no idea? [05:34:04] are you using any rewrite rules? [05:34:13] any .htaccess kinda stuff? [05:34:21] MZMcBride, i am [05:34:21] it was working fine before though [05:34:26] yeah [05:34:35] worked fine not too long ago [05:34:41] now it's busted and i'm not sure why [05:34:58] !rewriteproblems [05:34:58] --mwbot-- 1) Do not put the files into the document root; 2) Do not map the pages into the document root; 3) Use different paths for real files and virtual pages; 4) Do not set a RewriteBase; 5) Put all rules into the .htaccess file in the document root. [05:35:02] could have been an apache/php upgrade in between, no idea.

[18:09:12] once you rasterize it, it's no longer scalable [18:09:36] well... it is, but photoshop just stretches it and does some crazy pixel math. [18:09:46] which destroys the sharpness.

[18:17:39] select the text tool, then highlight taht text [18:17:55] ya, aa [18:17:59] :) [18:18:20] smooth does look a bit better... but not by much.. any chance this is the outer glow together with the gradient? [18:18:51] wait, which text are you talking about? [18:19:21] the center, "is a free community..." [18:19:26] ah [18:19:27] lol [18:19:35] lol! [18:22:06] ok, ya. go in to the blending options > stroke on that layer [18:22:34] move the stroke opacity up to 100% and change the color to like 51b600 [18:22:42] and then adjust the color, not the opacity. [18:24:08] hmm... rougher edgeS? [18:25:58] yup, that did the trick.. thanks Tim :) [18:26:24] np. it's not rougher, you were right about the transparent stroke fighting w/ the transparent glow [18:26:41] then just adjust the luminosity? to get the right color [18:26:45] f/ the stroke [18:26:47] VasilievVV: wouldn't it be a good idea the to pass the user object with the AutopromoteCondition hook ?

[18:43:07] ->transform() [18:44:57] which class? [18:45:56] umm... the base class? because the actual calss you usually call it on extends handler classes taht extend other classes, etc [18:46:06] hehe [18:46:57] transform conserves ratios as well, right? [18:47:03] ya [18:47:12] thanks again :) [18:47:44] btw, File.php, line 492 [18:47:49] ;-) [18:49:04] the only thing i don't understand, is why mw doesn't allow background-image property for images.. it would be so usefull.. [18:49:39] because that isn't the purpose of [[Image:...]] [18:50:29] i was thinking of something along the lines of [[image:bla.jpg|background]] if you want it on background or default=regular. [18:50:37] It's intended to display images inline (more or less), not for layout so much [18:51:10] but then you can't really "layout" wiki articles.. with images atleast, and without writing too much code into common.css [18:51:30] ya, wiki pages would be insane if you could [18:51:45] by size you mean? [18:51:53] size, consistency, etc [18:52:36] so perhaps, a boilerplate template, that only bureaucrat's can edit, used for "main" portals and articles.. [18:52:38] templating gets you close and forces you to consider what site-wide layout formats to define in your Common.css [18:52:54] Wiredtape: ya, that's what the Template: namespace is for along with Common.css [18:53:03] truth is, the only reason i want this is because i want my backgroud images to be resized on the fly :) [18:53:25] poor servers... [18:53:41] hehehe, only one article.. (main page) [18:54:58] Wiredtape: so you want imagemagick to resize them to what? [18:56:35] basically, my main page is scaled for 1024px, and so anything less starts cutting off the images i use there. Now I tried using 800px images but that made it look really bad on everything... [18:57:11] so i thought perhaps for 800X600 i would resize to what it needs and have the original stay at 1024 [19:01:28] Why are setup and the autoloader loaded *after* DefaultSettings.php?

[23:23:07] TimLaqua, well enough. I have problems with the new case, though. [23:23:18] *Simetrical will have to disconnect one or two of these fans [23:23:32] And the new CPU doesn't support frequency scaling . . . oh well, I don't pay the electricity bills. [23:23:44] fans loud? or airflow problems? [23:23:48] Too loud. [23:23:57] hmm... how can you create a title object? I've tried Title::newFromText, but that doesn't seem to be enough [23:23:59] But the point is, I got it to work eventually. [23:24:03] Skizzerz, it should work fine. [23:24:16] $title = Title::newFromText( 'Main_Page' ); [23:24:45] ok, then my problem lies elsewhere [23:25:44] because I'm defining it like that, but when I try to call a method using $title, it gives me the error message "Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object" [23:26:41] Skizzerz, the title might be invalid? [23:27:35] yeah, since it's up to user input, I did a check via $title->exists(), and if it didn't, I got the title via Article::getTitle() instead [23:28:59] Simetrical: get fans with greater diameter if possible, they will produce much less noise for same airflow produced [23:29:04] Skizzerz, Title::newFromText( '####' ); will return null, as I recall. Don't try calling methods until you've verified that it's actually a title object. [23:29:16] ah [23:29:31] agaran, I figure I don't necessarily need heavy cooling anyway. I'll just try disabling the noisy ones and see if my computer crashes or not. [23:29:40] Skizzerz, doesn't it say this in the documentation for the method? [23:29:57] and where would such documentation be found? [23:29:58] Simetrical: dangerous way imo, but if one could afford replacing broken hardware its allright [23:30:22] Skizzerz, in the source code? [23:30:32] yeah, I checked that [23:30:56] @return Title the new object, or NULL on an error [23:32:06] let me check to see what it's returning in that instance... [23:32:34] where i could find instruction how to set cacheing in mediawiki [23:32:46] Hey All... I am trying to access the "global $wgRequest" from a custom extension and it never returns the value when i do the following "$artist = $wgRequest->getVal('artist');"... But the value is there because I can see it in the index.php, just not from the extension... any thoughts? [23:33:14] jfleener: see it in the index.php? [23:33:53] TimLaqua: If i do the same thing and have it echo out in the index.php its there [23:34:25] jfleener: did you declare "global $wgRequest;" in your function? [23:34:34] yeah [23:35:31] when does your function fire? [23:35:47] is it in LocalSettings.php or $wgExtensionFunctions ? [23:36:17] $wgExtensionFunctions [23:36:23] ah, so it is returning empty [23:36:35] jfleener, extensions are loaded before globals are initialized. You're supposed to put all functional code, including code involving globals, inside a class or function that you register to be called when needed. [23:36:55] jfleener, for an example, look at some of the "official" extensions in SVN, like say Patroller or whatever. [23:49:28] I guess i am still confused.. check out http://pastebin.com/m469328f5 I posted my extension there... The search artist function is the one I am having issues with.. [23:49:50] Simetrical: eh? Isn't $wgRequest initalized way before $wgExtensionFunctions is processed? [23:50:40] *TimLaqua sighs [23:52:13] sorry, here it is [23:52:14] http://rafb.net/p/Eu0noz85.html [23:52:44] TimLaqua, it's not initialized before LocalSettings.php includes are executed. [23:53:00] But no, this looks to be done correctly. [23:53:13] agreed [23:53:16] Can I use #expr to do sin, cos and tan. [23:53:31] minute, know what a Taylor series is? [23:53:34] :) [23:53:44] Other than that, no. [23:53:46] Simetrical: :| [23:54:44] {{#expr: 3.14159/2 - (3.14159/2)*(3.14159/2)*(3.14159/2)/(3*2*1) + (3.14159/2)*(3.14159/2)*(3.14159/2)*(3.14159/2)*(3.14159/2)/(5*4*3*2*1) }} gets you sin(pi/2), approximately. [23:54:57] There's an extension that exposes such functions by default, anyway. [23:55:06] Er, not by default, more like "in reality", you know. [23:55:16] As opposed to hacking it up with Taylor series. [23:55:17] Simetrical or TimLaqua: So in theory it should work then? [23:55:30] jfleener, I haven't really written extensions, I just do core code. So, no idea. :) [23:55:34] jfleener: what's it do currently? [23:56:13] its just supposed to be a form post that i want to catch the post variables after i hit submit and do a database query off them [23:56:54] jfleener: ok - but with your current implementation, what does it do? [23:56:55] i have a sneaky feeling i am doing this the hard way [23:57:16] Simetrical: mmh, I'll look into the extension tomorrow. [23:57:17] night [23:58:20] if you edit a page in my artist namespace you can drop this tag in "" and be able to seach for artists listed in my database [23:58:38] and does anything show up when you do that? [23:59:06] just the form again... the post variables don't seem to make it... [23:59:18] umm... you're not posting it anywhere [23:59:31] back to that page... [23:59:44] leaving it blank it will use your current page location
