[00:00:08] that one rocked :))) [00:08:17] ugh [00:08:31] anybody else having problems with svn commit mails? [00:15:33] "Port: 4,848" <- sometimes, i18n can go too far [00:18:11] :D [00:41:58] Hi all,can I (in some easy way) create a table in the wiki? [00:42:11] and also, can I attache non-image files to the wiki? [00:43:45] phoenixz: I assume you mean this? http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Tables [00:44:29] for allowed file types to be uploaded, see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuring_file_uploads [00:46:13] TimStarling: I wrote my first extension? (Or, more accurately, modified another one for my own purposes). [00:46:24] s/\?/!/ [00:46:41] TimStarling: I did learn something fun though. [00:46:45] TimStarling: may be patch worth. [00:46:53] care to hear? [00:47:06] Wiki_Lp, Thanks for the info! [00:47:15] np, enjoy! [00:47:49] Morbus: well done [00:49:27] TimStarling: you had mentioned yesterday that if I had problems with FLV, I should tell for possible inclusion. You had said this in relation to includes/mime.types|info, but, it's related. [00:50:28] TimStarling: in short, while most Linux servers include mime magic files in /usr/share/file/magic for Flash files, that's only for .swf, not FLV. [00:50:55] at first, my PHP didn't have PECL fileinfo, so it defaulted to mime_content_type. Which caused by FLV file to be outright denied because text/plain was returned for a miem-type. [00:51:12] after installing PECL fileinfo, finfo_file returned application/octet-stream. [00:51:22] this is in includes/MimeMagic.php:detectMimeType. [00:51:48] application/octet-stream allowed the file to be uploaded but, per our discussion yesterday, wasn't really the best mime-type for me to sit on as a media handler (like you do for ogg). [00:52:36] This caused guessMimeType, called after detect*, to return mime type unknown/unknown for the uploaded FLV [00:52:51] again, not entirely ideal for my future media handler thingy. [00:53:06] i eventually got it fixed by adding FLV magic to magic.mime, then recreating the generated .mgc. [00:53:39] but many hours later, the outcome was: it /may/ be an idea to add FLV detection in guessMimeType. [00:53:58] ideally, it'd be a matter of checking for FLV in the $head [00:54:11] . [01:19:10] gah. i still don't get whitespace rules and wikitext in templates. [01:28:57] on an article, if i have two templates used right after another: {{one}} {{two}}, the whitespace between the two doesnt' seem to matter? The two inclusions become with no whitespace ("onetwo"). [01:30:37] but, if i turn that into "{{one}} And {{two}}, then it becomes a pre! [01:30:38] argh. [01:31:22] oh, man this is nutty. [01:31:34] }} And, funnily: {{Monkey by|ahem|other}} and other [01:31:44] turns into
And ...
[01:31:58] 	and it properly shows "And, funnily: Monkey by"
[01:32:26] 	but if i do:
[01:32:27] 	}}
[01:32:27] 	And, funnily: {{Monkey by|ahem|other}} and other
[01:32:37] 	then it becomes "And, funnily:Monkey by".
[01:32:43] 	not as a pre, but with no space between the two.
[01:32:50] *Morbus 	weeps.
[01:33:45] 	what am I missing, what, what.
[01:38:09] 	so, in the source, it's literally "And, funnily:	a link is the first thing that comes out of the template.
[01:38:32] 	is whitespace removed from before/after a template's {{ }} in an article?
[01:43:18] 	arggh.
[01:43:30] 	so, I had {{#if
[01:43:33] 	in my template.
[01:43:44] 	that causes no space - And, funnily	i say, hey!  {{#if
[01:44:02] 	guess what. naturally, it makes TWO spaces:
[01:44:06] 	And, funnily  	can you just not use templates inline with something else?

[01:55:05] 	arrrgh.
[01:55:25] 	if the first thing out of a template is a , then whitespace before the template inclusion is stripped or something.
[01:55:41] 	if it's anything else - a   a -, then whitespace is NOT stripped.
[01:56:03] 	this is making it impossible for me to cleanly to do "and this {{link inclusion}} is great".
[01:56:17] 	Is $wgUseDynamicDates what causes [[date-like-value]] to be reformatted to (for example) [[January 10]], [[2008]]?
[01:57:31] 	interesting.
[01:57:43] 	a workaround is to include  where you want the space to go.

[03:27:13] 	03tstarling * r29569 10/trunk/phase3/includes/ (DefaultSettings.php Parser.php ParserOptions.php): 
[03:27:13] 	* Fixed template loop check, broken by changes in parse order
[03:27:13] 	* Added template recursion depth limit. It needs a small limit, because of exorbitant stack space usage, xdebug compatibility problems, and the potential for O(N^2) memory usage in the template loop check.
[03:27:13] 	* Made these two error messages more obvious in the parser output, with 	class="error"> instead of a comment. This is similar to the #expr error

[05:10:48] *slavie adds a link to that page on the image help page. [05:16:07] It works fine with < http://pathos.ca/wiki/Image:Symbol_comment_vote.svg >, but spasms and dies with < http://pathos.ca/wiki/Image:Copyright.svg >. I'm assuming that's a problem with ImageMagick, which is apparently very buggy with SVG and should be avoided if possible. -.- [05:18:19] did you have any uninstalled fonts referenced in that SVG, or external references to bitmap images? [05:18:27] slavie: You need to compile ImageMagick with vertain libraries to support SVG [05:18:31] s/vertain/certain [05:18:54] Splarka: Nope; It's from Commons, but I edited it a long time ago. [05:19:06] *Shanel wonders what certain libraries. :O [05:19:20] amidaniel|away: Well, it supports at least one SVG image I linked above.

[05:21:47] Oh, hmm .. dunno :) [05:21:53] Listen to TimStarling :P [05:21:58] imagemagick's SVG support is really bad [05:22:23] TimStarling: It's a shared host, so I don't have much leeway there. :) [05:23:23] I'll just take the easy way out and upload a pre-converted version; I'm not going to need to resize it anyway. [05:23:31] Lazy. [05:23:35] Yep. [05:26:31] "A clever hack for some of these might be to have the expiry vary based on the expected change, where it's predictable." [05:26:58] brion: I suggested that to domas already, on IRC [05:27:13] :D [05:27:25] we'll see if some enterprising lad picks it up [05:27:30] it was a suggestion to the gallery :) [05:28:12] domas wasn't interested in doing it, he just wanted to stop having large numbers of articles with a 1-hour expiry time due to {{CURRENTPAGE}} or something [05:29:42] yep [05:29:51] that's fine [05:29:56] not everything has to happen at once :D [06:35:01] hello, i need help with the following very odd problem: if i write __NOTOC__ __NOEDITSECTION__ on my main page there appears this text: UNIQ59e2402e709c3de8-nowiki-00000002-QINU [06:35:13] otherwise the wiki works perfectly [06:36:03] it seems that for every tag it creates that UNIQ-string [06:36:52] (for those tags that mediawiki reads, for example extension tags and nowiki tags) [06:37:12] and it only happens on front page [06:37:22] all tags on other pages work [06:37:23] 03brion * r29574 10/trunk/extensions/CheckUser/ (cu_log_import.inc importLog.php install.inc): [06:37:23] * break old checkuser log import out to a separate include file; break up the function for easier testing [06:37:23] * importLog.php can be used to do a manual import, a dry run, or a test of the raw log file parser [06:37:23] * strip null characters from log input (caused by NFS write conflicts) [06:37:23] * handle missing log file gracefully during update.php run [06:37:34] (this is newest 1.11.0 release) [06:38:26] oh, a bit of googling and it reveals this "notorious UNIQ/QINU" bug [06:39:50] hi all. can anyone give me a reference for using htaccess authentication with mediawiki? (incase its important, our apache is backended on ldap) [06:41:38] i was told a few months ago that it was posbile, so i'm very much hoping that it really is now i come to impliment it :) [06:42:45] kgoetz: it's possible with a plugin i believe [06:42:55] you'll probably find it on www.mediawiki.org somewhere [06:44:17] brion: i'll keep looking then, thanks. [06:45:39] well damn [06:45:52] i don't have the rights to set zend.ze1_compatibility_mode off [06:45:59] are there any other workarounds for this bug? [06:48:20] Hey all, does anyone know of an extension that can check if a template exists in articles and generates a list of them...? [06:49:09] Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Templatename ? [06:49:48] Splarka, great! I forgot all about that...! [06:50:03] So would this be {{Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Templatename}} [06:50:24] I don't think Whatlinkshere transcludes [06:50:27] but you can wikilink to it [06:50:49] [[Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Templatename]] [06:51:30] it also shows pages that link to the template, like [[Template:Templatename]], but the {{Templatename}} links are shown with (inclusion) or (transclusion) (or a translation thereof) [06:51:43] hmm... I was really looking to transclude it.. [06:52:05] ahh [06:52:51] Dpl... [06:53:03] http://semeb.com/dpldemo/index.php?title=DPL:Manual [06:53:08] *Splarka was just getting the link to it, heh [06:53:13] ^_^ lol [06:53:21] thanks to you both.. :) [06:53:33] http://semeb.com/dpldemo/index.php?title=DPL:Manual_-_DPL_parameters:_Criteria_for_page_selection#uses [06:53:39] what about poor mwbot? [06:53:43] Splarka: ^_^ Just don't tell me you to have the insane idea of building a Wiki Engine inspired by MW in Lisp... [06:53:49] !dpl [06:53:49] --mwbot-- The DynamicPageList (DPL) extension outputs reports based on criteria given in a special tag. For more information, see and . [06:54:08] mwbot is as confusing as it is helpful [06:54:18] *MZMcBride pets mwbot [06:54:53] I don't get why they didn't make whatlinkshere transcludable.. [06:55:00] I can see many benefits.. [06:55:02] well [06:55:13] there are only 5 (I think) Special: pages that are transcludable [06:55:27] prefix.. [06:55:28] Prefixindex, Allpages, Wantedpages, Recentchanges... [06:55:35] and.. um.. something else [06:55:49] Newpages? [06:56:12] right [06:56:49] so, most don't, the natural state of a Special: page is not to transclude, apparently [06:56:56] i set zend.ze1_compatibility_mode = off but it has no effect on the UNIQ/QINU -problem - what else can i do? [06:57:17] I wonder if I can hack a small extension to extract whatlinkshere.. [06:57:18] i'm running php 5.2.5 and mw 1.11.0 [06:58:24] note also, whatlinkshere is not ideal for your uses [06:58:35] as it shows redirects and links, while the feature would just show transclusions [07:00:04] ok i've succesfully set zend compatibility off (checked phpinfo();) but it has no effect on UNIQ-bug although every page i googled reported it being problem with php4 compatibility mode [07:00:38] piksi: can't help much, but that seems odd, only your main page is afflicted? [07:00:40] *Dantman wonders why Splarka made no reaction to his mention of Lisp... [07:01:12] Dan: whatever you do in the privacy of your own home is no concern of mine. Don't ask don't tell ^_^ [07:01:21] lol [07:01:22] *Splarka jabs [07:01:59] Splarka: never seen it on any other page except mainpage. if you know anything about it, i'd like to know if it's related to badly coded extensions or mediawiki itself [07:02:02] I'll just say that I did do something... a few hours ago infact... And it wasn't by myself... ;) [07:02:02] Splarka, what do you mean shows links? [07:02:37] Wired: picking a random template on enwp: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Toronto_Raptors_seasons [07:03:08] you'll notice a little over half of the entries have (transclusion) following the name, the ones that do not are pages that link to the template but do not transclude it [07:03:45] *Dantman wonders if he should read more on lisp, start work on his C++ algoritms for class, or catch up on the anime he has pileing up... [07:04:05] I vote anime [07:04:15] Splara, ah. Gotcha.. [07:04:26] ^_^ Ya... I'm a little tired and hungry... ;) rofl [07:04:36] piksi: the only times i've seen that bug are in relation to catastrophically bad code clashes or something, where the xml parser tags get FUBARed or something, have you tried changing MediaWiki:Mainpage to see if the problem moves to the new main page? [07:06:13] well.. good night everyone.. and thanks for all the fish.. [07:06:37] wired: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:BackLinksFunctions [07:06:44] this may be something useful for your needs [07:07:30] Splarka, thanks.. glad I stayed a sec longer now :) [07:08:30] Splarka: i think i traced the problem down - when i enable one extension (newestpagesblog) it appears [07:08:50] Splarka: but i hope it isn't related to the amount of extensions enabled - only one badly coded one :-) [07:09:24] are you only using that one on the main page? [07:09:36] Splarka: yes [07:10:03] you could try disabling all extensions except that one, then ^_^ [07:11:47] guys and gals, say a user has been blocked as a sock of a banned user, but is not that person. how can they "prove" they are not that person ? [07:12:52] woops. wrong channel [07:13:16] Splarka: yeah it was that extension - funny though how it only started appearing *after* i had added other extensions too and now it appears all the time i use that extension even if i disable all others [07:13:26] i hope it hasn't done anything crappy to the database [07:14:51] But we always need a reason to verify the integrity of our db backups! :P [07:16:35] <_wooz> lo [07:41:50] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Random_ideas_for_rollback_to_be_shelved_and_forgotten_about [07:41:54] wtf, this should be on meta [07:42:53] *Splarka points at MZMcBride [07:43:25] *Splarka notes that it was tried at the project level, and caused a rucus, but a solution at the software level might serve up some general STFU [07:47:55] AaronSchulz: it's about the technical aspect, not the social aspect [07:48:11] for MediaWiki or WMF [07:48:17] clearly the later [07:48:23] put it on meta [07:48:31] for MediaWiki; the software wouldn't be changed just for WMF [07:48:43] we don't want any irrelevant shit on MW.org [07:48:44] 03siebrand * r29576 10/trunk/extensions/ (4 files in 2 dirs): [07:48:44] * use wfLoadExtensionMessages for CountEdits [07:48:45] * Delay message loading [07:48:45] * add version and url in extension credits [07:48:45] * update Translate extension [07:49:23] AaronSchulz: you're free to move or delete it; i can't export / import; and personally, i don't care all that much [07:49:41] just thought a page was better than repeated IRC chat that had the same four bullet points [07:50:27] yes, a meta page [07:52:06] *MZMcBride is going to sleep [08:04:56] 03(mod) Provide preference-based autoformatting for unlinked dates - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4582 (10s.r.e.turner) [08:05:18] is there a {{}} -tag for listing the amount of users?

[11:18:21] RoanKattouw: Have you done anything more with the diffs in the API? [11:18:28] Someone was asking about that today [11:18:31] amidaniel: No [11:18:36] Our diff system sucks too much [11:18:48] For that purpose anyway [11:18:50] Haha, alright :) [11:19:07] The point is that these HTML diffs are generated by a C++ program (wikidiff2), then cached [11:19:12] I know I saw at least two implementations from you, didn't know if any were gonna stick around :) [11:19:27] Ah [11:19:37] I thought they all went through diff3 ? [11:19:40] My earlier implementations used the slow, memory-hogging and therefore deprecated PHP diff engine [11:19:50] Maybe wikidiff2 uses diff3 internally [11:20:01] You can also configure an external diff engine in LocalSettings.php [11:20:03] Ah, okay. What does wikidiff2 output? HTML? [11:28:39] Hello [11:29:24] Is there anybody there? [11:29:35] Aye [11:30:05] Cool! I have a question about MediaWiki... Is it the right place? ;o) [11:30:54] Aye again, matey. [11:32:54] I have 2 computers, and I'd like to transfer a wiki from one to the other one. [11:33:27] Does MediaWiki provides some tools to do that or should I do it throught the DB-server? [11:34:55] Nope, but it's pretty easy to do. Just make a dump of your db (with svndump utility or some other way) and import it into a new db on the other server. Then copy all the files in your wiki directory over to the other computer as well, and voila! [11:35:38] Oh, and you'll have to create a user for the wiki database on the new server and update the info in your LocalSettings.php as well [11:35:49] I believe there's a man page for this .. just a sec [11:36:43] Yup [11:36:47] !man Moving_a_wiki [11:36:47] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Moving_a_wiki [11:37:45] amidaniel: !move [11:37:57] !move [11:37:57] --mwbot-- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Moving_a_wiki [11:38:01] Rawr [11:38:05] *amidaniel bitchslaps RoanKattouw [11:38:07] amidaniel: wikidiff2 outputs HTML, yes [11:38:14] How could I miss this?! Thanks a lot! [11:38:28] Ah, k. And that would be problematic then, indeed :)) [11:38:51] Would an Api module that scrapes that HTML be a really gross solution? :) [11:43:33] It would be redundant, action=raw&diff=123&oldid=122 already does the same [11:48:21] Well, I meant that scrapes the HTML output, makes sense of it, puts it into a useable format. [11:48:26] The same thing that clients would do [11:48:37] Gross idea :) [11:49:42] AaronSchulz: something against readability?

I get "Could not create directory "public/d/df"" when I try to upload an image to my wiki [16:48:28] the whole images directory is copied over from another version of the same wiki on a different machine so I am guessing I bollixed the permissions somewhere [16:48:37] or is it possible to surpress it somehow [16:49:11] if I change the owner and group of the directory and its subs to apache should that fix the problem? right now they all belong to root/root [16:51:32] frieze_, if they're root, your apache process can't edit them unless they're chmod'ed 777 [16:51:45] right [16:52:06] so chown -R apache.apache /path/to/wiki/images [16:52:09] so if I just chown/ghgrp them to apache/apache I can leave them with u+rw only right? [16:52:19] or www-data.www-data, depending on what the user/group is [16:52:34] yes, frieze_ [16:53:59] Zach_: awesome. thanks for the sanity check [16:58:30] in the "UPDATE categorylinks ...

[17:31:54] I don't think special page inclusions are formattable. [17:32:07] then they should format them better. [17:32:33] :) [17:32:40] Probably. [17:32:47] haha [17:32:55] Of course you want different formats for different occasions. [17:33:14] Maybe best if they were all ul's, and you could wrap them in something like
    or whatnot. [17:33:28] Simetrical, sounds like a plan.. :) [17:33:33] Can DPL do this? [17:33:57] not the ul's just generate the same list? [17:34:16] I don't know anything about DPL.

[17:49:29] I've made pages editable only by registered users, but I think someone is using an automated script to create users and spam [17:49:36] And they keep coming from different IPs [17:49:40] There are a variety of extensions available. [17:49:41] !spam [17:49:41] --mwbot-- For more information about combating and handling spam in MediaWiki, see . [17:49:50] And configuration options, too. [17:50:04] mike_jh, I found that the best was the recaptcha tool.. if they are making external links.. [17:52:30] Simetrical: I type ot that the last one was not needed, so you didn't have to use that one as an example [17:52:32] 03siebrand * r29605 10/trunk/extensions/TemplateLink/ (3 files): [17:52:32] * use wfLoadExtensionMessages [17:52:32] * delay message loading [17:52:32] * add version in extension credits [17:52:32] * remove some unneeded clutter [17:52:36] Is it possible to make registrations require approval? [17:53:48] Simetrical: and I don't think I understand the bloatness... [17:53:52] AzaTht, regardless, any of the others can be easily retrieved, and it breaks consistency to substitute parameters in reason messages. [17:54:06] mike_jh, there are extensions for that. I think ConfirmAccount is one. [17:54:13] Simetrical: I though the summary parameter was a replacement of the buildin message [17:54:42] AzaTht, you could say the same for edit autosummaries, and auto delete reasons, and whatever else. We substitute parameters in the automatically generated messages only. [17:55:45] gah, there went the possibillity to transform twinkle to use mw rollback :( [17:57:20] the summary parameter is practically unusable if no variable substitution can be made [17:57:37] 03siebrand * r29606 10/trunk/extensions/Translate/MessageGroups.php: Update i18n definitions for 7 extensions [17:58:21] as it for the first revents people to add rationale to the rollback [17:58:25] prevents* [17:58:28] Cluebot seems to be using it nicely.

[17:59:59] will 'svn upate' overwrite installed patchs? [18:00:08] Simetrical: why would it be so difficult to have the summary parameter to be handled exactly the same as the default summary? [18:00:20] wouldnt' that in reallity unbloat the code? [18:00:50] AzaTht, nope. For the summary message we do wfMsgExt( 'messagename', param list ... ) and the message functions handle it. [18:01:07] hmm [18:01:21] We'd have to refactor/copy the substitution logic. [18:01:37] ok [18:01:45] dorje, not if it detects a conflict. If it finds a conflict, it will mark those and provide diffs that you can look at. [18:02:20] Simetrical: I was hoping I where to be able to minimize the ammount of data sent and recievent from the api [18:02:33] ok [18:03:25] and to be able to count, I would have to download all revisions till that rev [18:03:31] from* [18:07:25] 03(mod) Don't update categorylinks.cl_timestamp when moving page - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12584 (10zach) [18:07:44] Simetrical: so not it stands that I have to make three queries just to grab the summary... [18:07:53] makes no sense for me... [18:08:36] I was hoping to minimize that to one query [18:08:51] AzaTht, if you want to provide additional contextual information you will have to get it yourself, yes. This is always the case. If you want queries better suited to your needs, you can ask the API guys. [18:10:39] Hello [18:11:16] I've an SQL error from update.php when I try to upgrade from 1.10 to 1.11.0. Where can I see executed SQL requests to debug that ? [18:12:31] !errors [18:12:31] --mwbot-- To see PHP errors, add this to the very top of LocalSettings.php: error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set("display_errors", 1); Fatal PHP errors usually go to Apache's error log - also check the error_log setting in php.ini (or use phpinfo). For more details in wiki error reports, set $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; and $wgShowSQLErrors = true; For full debug output, set $wgDebugLogFile to some path you like. [18:12:46] I'm surprised it doesn't give the details of the SQL query. [18:12:52] Surely command-line scripts should do so. [18:13:18] Simetrical: it give a part of SQL but I don't think it is complete [18:13:30] What did it say? [18:13:35] (pastebin if it's long) [18:13:48] Simetrical: though could at least the aditional variables be available to the default sumamry? [18:13:51] summary* [18:14:06] AzaTht, maybe. Open a separate request if you want. [18:15:07] Simetrical: http://pastebin.ca/851080 [18:15:35] Telemac, that's the full query all right. [18:15:46] What version of MySQL are you using?

[18:18:02] Simetrical: I think so :) [18:18:06] Telemac, try asking in MySQL, everything from 'Query "CREATE TABLE ...' on. [18:18:16] (they won't care about the stuff before that) [18:18:20] I'm not sure why it would give an error. [18:19:48] (See, we volunteer support people like to blame the other party and send people off to hassle them.) [18:19:50] varbinary? [18:19:59] varchar binary should still work.

[18:24:11] varbinarys don't have collations, do they? [18:24:27] I've done a ton of work on the OpenID extension (changing to OOPy layout, auto-loading the special pages, update for OpenID 2.0) [18:24:37] Telemac, try manually running the CREATE TABLE query with the word "binary" deleted from "keyname varbinary(255) binary not null default '',". [18:24:38] And I'm realizing that I should probably check the code in on a branch rather than into head [18:24:50] e_s_p, do you have commit access? [18:24:57] Simetrical: yes [18:25:11] Well, I dunno. [18:25:16] Talk to the current author, he's around somewhere. [18:25:20] (What's your SVN name?) [18:25:20] I'm wondering if there's a way to change the branch my working dir is on before committing [18:25:27] Yes, you're talking to him [18:25:49] in cvs there's no way (I don't think) [18:25:58] Oh, geez. [18:26:00] You have to check out on a branch, and copy all of your files over [18:26:06] Didn't you used to use a different name here? [18:26:13] Yes, evanpro [18:26:19] Simetrical: Without binary it work [18:26:19] That clears up a lot. [18:26:22] Different computer, different ID [18:26:27] Not sure how to make a branch in SVN, offhand. [18:26:36] I've done it before.

[18:35:39] Wiredtape, there might be an extension. [18:35:44] Don't know. [18:37:07] If there isn't... what are the functions called when "save page" is done? [18:37:21] You mean, ArticleSaveComplete hook? [18:37:49] See there for how to modify the way mw behaves when an article save is complete [18:38:09] Or, rather, just look at hooks.txt in the docs sub-dir [18:39:16] e_s_p, yeah.. but basically I don't need to modify the way it behaves after.. I need to pass something into the functions that create the page.. so I would have preload text that would be automatically saved when clicking a link.. thus creating a page with preloaded text.. [18:39:49] Right [18:40:00] Well, probably the best way to figure that out would be to look at the code, eh? [18:40:29] Simetrical: was looking at http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=549 [18:40:40] perhaps it could be time to change this? [18:40:48] or should it be wontfixed? [18:41:25] AzaTht, I don't know what you're asking? Nobody's wontfixed it. [18:41:46] Wiredtape: I've used Article::doEdit() to do that, it might be your best bet [18:41:54] Simetrical: as you where the last to comment on it [18:42:07] . . . and? [18:42:20] either keep the odd behavour (wontfix) or make a breaking change [18:42:25] e_s_p, thanks.. :) [18:43:51] Simetrical: I was thinking that with the new parser, the change could be made [18:44:20] AzaTht, ask Tim, not me.

[21:04:51] so if I put a function on the WatchArticleComplete hook and the funcion has this->purge() in it then the page will be purged from the cache whenever someone watches it right?

[21:05:45] No, of course it wouldn't work. [21:05:48] You need the Article object. [21:05:51] right [21:06:02] Or whatever purge() is the method of.

What help you with? [22:07:15] "Run the SQL query, substituting in your wiki's table prefix. ConfirmAccount.pg.sql is for PostgreSQL, and ConfirmAccount.sql is for MySQL." [22:07:23] I don't know what the SQL query is...? [22:07:29] i know that i'm using MySQL though [22:07:31] that'd be ConfirmAccount.sql [22:07:50] how do i run it? [22:07:52] do you have command line/shell access? [22:07:59] 03aaron * r29626 10/trunk/extensions/ConfirmAccount/ConfirmAccount_body.php: Ahh, ul tags added by overriding [22:08:09] lol [22:08:20] you might want to re-download ConfirmAccount_body.php ;) [22:08:24] *AaronSchulz feels silly [22:09:21] GMH: it is even easier in phpmyadmin and stuff [22:09:42] meh, I'm just too used to SSH to use a UI :P [22:10:20] but yeah, you can just load the file in phpmyadmin if you have that, just make the necessary changes in regards to the table prefix first [22:13:14] how can I change toolbox link-to text like en.wikipedia.org? [22:13:40] on en.wikipedia, Upload links to [[Wikipedia:Upload]] [22:23:43] whats the url name for the edit summary ie &editsummary=foo [22:24:52] or just a link to a page with auto submit on it [22:25:31] the edit summary and submit button most likely require a POST action, which can't be done via GET (url parameter) [22:25:36] but you can fake it with javascript [22:25:50] Splarka: got a moment to help me with a (hopefully) simple JS issue? :) [22:26:00] *Splarka grumbles at Jack [22:26:06] is autosubmit possible [22:26:06] jack : #mediawiki-scripts [22:26:16] i want to click a link to clear a sandbox [22:26:20] thanks :) [22:26:27] ive seen it somewhere i just cant remeber whenre [22:26:30] Markie996: sure, but not terribly secure, you could construct links for vandalism [22:26:57] is there anywehere i can see that ?? [22:27:23] or could you give me the url needed ie index.php?...... [22:27:44] no and no, because with javascript, you could make up your own URL parameters [22:27:57] hmmm ok [22:28:09] is there anysite you know of which it works at?? [22:32:00] Markie996: it isn't hard to do in JS, if you want to go the JS route [22:32:12] hmm ok no worries atm [22:32:17] i may pop back later :-) [22:32:18] here for example is some JS that does it for the protection form: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Splarka/formfiller.js [22:32:22] thanks for all your help :-) [22:32:32] it could be modified to make a sandbox blanker [22:32:39] hmm thanks for that [22:32:44] and all the other help [22:32:48] i may be back later :-) [22:32:59] Hi Does anyone know if there is a plugin that automatically wraps different section on a page with a div?

[22:47:25] 03(NEW) Inline query tables print raw numbers in addition to expected display values - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12591 major; normal; MediaWiki extensions: Semantic MediaWiki; (temlakos) [22:48:33] 03siebrand * r29628 10/trunk/phase3/ (RELEASE-NOTES languages/messages/MessagesPag.php): [22:48:33] Localisation updates for core messages from Betawiki [22:48:33] * adding pag/Pangasinan [22:48:45] does MediaWiki translate something? [22:48:53] I known that I repeat myself but where can I find patch-usernewtalk2.sql ? It is mentioned in updaters.inc and needed by update.php by I cannot find it mediawiki.org 1.11.0 tarball and don't see it on svn [22:49:11] Ttech, you mean how it has different languages for the website? [22:49:36] Suisuisui: you mean interface localisation? [22:49:37] Wiredtape, I think? [22:49:45] siebrand, that sounds more liek it [22:50:29] Ttech / Suisuisui: check in on #mediawiki-i18n an create an account on http://translatewiki.net for all the localisation fun you can have with MediaWiki ;) [22:50:50] siebrand, no no. I am asking how does it do it. I have no interest in translating it. :P [22:51:04] human power [22:51:11] 0.o [22:51:29] Ttech: mostly volunteer translators, in-wiki for most of the languages. [22:51:36] lol no [22:51:37] Ttech, basically there are files that define the text in different languages.. [22:51:53] siebrand, when you do hte .po file there is that translation thing in mediawiki. How does it work [22:51:56] they have i18n extensions.. [22:52:23] does it replace all the text in the different files? or what? Is there a place where I can find out how do to that with php? [22:52:31] Ttech: see extension Translate/ for the code. All of Betawiki's concepts are in the MediaWiki svn repo. [22:52:56] siebrand, I looked, I don't understand it well. It has a class that I don't see. Etc. [22:53:04] Ttech: http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/Translate/ [22:53:41] Ttech: Nikerabbit has written most of it. I am a superuser of it and do some easy programming.

[22:54:37] I know po edit [22:55:04] Ttech: depending on what you do, we could host your project on Betawiki... [22:55:16] siebrand, its not like that its a app. :) [22:55:45] Ttech: what is done with the exports is irrelevant... [22:55:55] Its quite complicated and I figured I needed a way to do translation. But I have no clue how do to that in php, some of the other programers want to use arrays, but that seems like a lot of over head [22:55:56] :( [22:56:07] Telemac_: It looks like it may be included in /maintenance/archives/patch-usernewtalk.sql [22:56:39] Ttech, translations are done more or less like this.. [22:56:47] Nakon: so updaters.inc should not longer point to it [22:56:48] mediawiki registers system messages [22:57:03] these are the very ones that are defined within the i18n files [22:57:19] cu all [22:57:21] you can also see them on Special:Allmessages [22:57:24] c ya [22:57:42] 03(mod) Create Wikiversity Greek - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12587 (10ariel) [22:57:54] for "translation" the just "switch the file" from which the site pulls these messages from [22:58:04] the names of these messages stay the same.. (more or less) [22:58:34] And if I am not mistaken they are arrays as well.. cached arrays however.. [22:59:08] So how do pages get translated? Is it auto? [22:59:36] when you switch the definition file.. the messages switch to a different language [22:59:46] again, more or less.. [22:59:48] (update.php from 1.10 to 1.11.0 is a real pain) [23:12:32] hi? [23:12:41] i have a problem :( [23:13:00] i cant edit the navigation left and iam admin...why? [23:13:58] hello? :/ [23:14:02] hi [23:14:10] oh hi :D [23:14:20] > i cant edit the navigation left and iam admin...why? [23:14:22] :( [23:14:25] what did you do? and try delete cache of your browser first [23:14:25] T-Vairus, did you try Mediawiki:Sidebar? [23:14:43] what is that? oO wait a minute, i look [23:16:06] ok, what should i do with mediawikisidebar? [23:16:20] how can i configure the navigation with that? [23:17:22] T-Vairus, you need to edit it.. and add/remove links you want or not.. play around with it.. it will give you a nice lesson in mediawiki [23:18:46] yes i now, but i dont find that editbutton for it - it is very strange :/ [23:19:18] do you need a screenshot? [23:19:41] just add ?action=edit to the url [23:19:54] but probably your just not logged in... [23:20:18] jupp - iam loggt in [23:20:35] i have the menu at the top - settings [23:20:59] with "editing" "date" and many more [23:21:10] ",isc" and so on [23:21:10] and delete tab on other pages? [23:21:25] i have delete nothing yet [23:21:52] only install it fresh and write my email adress down at the settings :( [23:22:00] thats all [23:22:14] Is there any way to make a background image disappaear when using css rounded corners? [23:22:21] so i don't have left over edges? [23:22:39] T-Varius, is this website live? [23:22:43] yes, if you are sysop, you have a tab "delete" on every article pages [23:23:42] look at the screen - i think, iam sysop [23:23:44] http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/5573/screenss5.png [23:23:47] i hope it... [23:23:57] website live? how you mean that? [23:24:10] sorry iam from germany, my english is not perfect :) [23:24:24] check index.php?title=Special:Listusers&username=&group=sysop for you are sysop or not [23:24:41] website live = Meaning accesible to the public [23:25:03] Wiredtape: { background-image:none; } ? [23:25:25] yes wirdetape :) @ suisisu, yes, iam syops "T-Vairus (Bureaucrat, sysop)" [23:25:54] http://web24.wkh2.wk-hosting.de/mediawiki/index.php?title=Special:Listusers&username=&group=sysop [23:25:56] Splarka, I want an image in the background, just I want the corners to disappear if it's a css3 compatible browser... [23:26:44] T-Vairus, did you go here: http://web24.wkh2.wk-hosting.de/mediawiki/index.php/MediaWiki:Sidebar [23:26:48] ? [23:27:19] Splarka, see example (using firefox) http://en.wiredtape.com/wiki/Template:Synop [23:27:27] Wired: that might not be possible. You should make the image with an alpha layer of transparent corners and set the background color of the object to the same general background color of the image [23:27:32] oh oO - no, i did not se that - can i configure the navigation from there? [23:27:40] well, *might not be possible in all browsers [23:29:47] Splarka, if this was just firefox I would have just used a different approach.. IE 6 still has PNG problems (maybe IE7 too?) and so other than gif I don't have an alpha option.. and gif seems would be disgusting :) [23:30:07] yes! it works! i can edit the navigation :D - and how can i create a new table? [23:30:07] T-Vairus, yes [23:30:08] never look a gif horse in the mouth [23:30:16] !sidebar [23:30:16] --mwbot-- To edit the navigation menu on the left, edit [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]] using its special syntax. For more details, see . [23:30:19] Splarka, lol [23:31:14] wired: well then, how about a two level effect. have an outer background object with just a background color with padding equal to the curvature, and an inner object with the background image? [23:31:52] though you don't get the image to the corners then [23:31:58] er ^edges [23:32:19] Hmm.. I tried something similar, let me try this way .. [23:32:52] well, what the pros do, IIRc... [23:33:19] is create the curves manually, with lots of little divs, ick [23:34:03] Is it possible to retrieve mediawiki information from memcached ? I'm testing upgrade from 1.10 to 1.11 and it seems that tests have remove some today changes. I think that it merge my (incomplete) test database to working one (I don't know how) ... [23:34:08] but what you could do is have 4 objects, one being the outer object with optional curves, two and four being the top and bottom padding of that object, equal in thickness to the curve radius, and three being the bulk of the object, reaching both sides but not the top/bottom (2-4 being siblings) [23:34:15] oh man.. i dont find it... how can i ad a one more section in the navigation left? :/ [23:34:35] T: to add a new section start with one asterisk [23:34:38] * new section [23:34:40] ** link|text [23:34:52] Yeah, I did that on the search div.. but, for this much work, I think I would rather just stick to a small image... [23:35:03] brion: http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/includes/Xml.php?r1=25387&r2=29618&sortby=date [23:35:06] ewww :) [23:35:42] \o/ [23:35:59] php needs a MODE_NOT_STUPID variable [23:36:14] Yeah [23:36:15] where (0 == '') returns false [23:36:19] Wired: how about this... [23:36:21] thanks Splarka and thanks wiredtape :) now i try an play a lilltle bit with mediawiki...btw, a great open source :) bye [23:36:25] And I need an MMORPG with bugs [23:36:32] Where can I find one? [23:36:42] IE5/6/7 don't support alpha transparency very well, but also don't support curves, if the curve isn't shown, the transparency isn't needed [23:37:34] so just use a png with the curves alpha'd to the background color of the image, and set the background-color to the same for the few browsers that support alpha but not curves [23:37:55] (how many support curves but not alpha? any?) [23:38:12] Splarka, yeah that's simple enough.. good idea, thanks... [23:39:45] AaronSchulz: (0 === '') returns false.
