[00:41:00] 03(NEW) Apostrophes in page titles causing page content to disappear - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12749 major; high; MediaWiki: Page rendering; (rad) [00:46:34] anyone familiar with what constitutes a minimal "stub" page, as mentioned on Special:Statistics? [00:47:28] it looks like it comes from maintenance/updateArticleCount.inc.php, function ArticleCounter() [00:48:00] is there some way to export a template and all the templates it depends on, recursively, to help copy it to another wiki? [00:50:22] no [00:50:59] some of the most complex templates it's not even possible to calculate what templates it depends on until it's called with parameters [00:51:13] stuff like {{flag}}, {{convert}} [00:54:12] sure, ignoring that, just following templatelinks [00:54:44] imagine a template: {{InsideDiv|foo}} that calls a parameterless template:

{{{{{1|}}}}}

[00:54:59] so just following templatelinks [00:56:57] carl-m: you could copy/paste the list of templates (removing asterisks and "(protected)") to Special:Export, maybe [00:57:05] I'll have to write something [01:20:58] carl-m: ping [01:21:21] Splarka: have you seen the updated Special:Export? [01:21:35] yes, with include templates, but maybe not what he meant [01:21:54] *MZMcBride goes to test the templates option [01:23:39] Im running some page titles through the API http://wikibondev.org/wiki/v/Better_take_unstructured_content_in_%27byte-sized%27_chunks [01:23:56] what can I do to fix those %27's and not get that error? [01:24:55] I tried both urlencode and urldecode [01:52:05] "Due to the requirement to produce test cases and achieve interoperable implementations, current estimates have work [on HTML 5] finishing in around ten to fifteen years." :/ [01:53:00] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screens_of_death <-- ROFL. [01:56:25] has anybody installed firebug lite on wikipedia or toolserver? [02:44:46] I'm trying to figure out a way to see a complete list of my MediaWiki users. [02:44:53] Any suggestions? [02:47:16] Special:Listusers ? [02:47:42] Just found it, thanks! [02:56:11] Danny_B: it looks like there is no way to pass info into the protection form [02:57:12] carl-m: yep. and thanks for answering here. i accidentaly posted it on wrong chan [02:57:40] however the question is if it's possible to enable it somehow [02:58:30] It looks like ProtectionForm.php only looks at them in the process of committing the protection [02:58:35] when will domas be back to uncripple javascript development for us? [02:59:51] Danny_B: it could be fixed in the code [03:01:46] Here's an interesting API question - I'm trying to get user info using this function http://rafb.net/p/q3EIQI45.html . I'm logged in, and my user is a bureucrat.. however the API returns the IP address of the server making the request, not the info about my cookied user.. [03:03:40] you've double-checked the cookies are set? [03:04:24] carl-m: yeah, they definitely are. When I visit http://wikibondev.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=userinfo&uiprop=rights|hasmsg from my browser it works perfectly [03:04:37] and my IP address is not the same one that is returned when the server makes the API call [03:05:20] the php is running on your browser? [03:05:54] no, but the result is different when I visit that URL from my browser and when I do the http request with file_get_contents [03:06:07] right. your browser has cookies, it seems. [03:06:18] but does the php log in and get a cookie? [03:06:45] hmm, no I suppose it doesnt, but what if there are multiple users all accessing these pages at once? [03:07:04] then they would have to send authentication info to the php, so that it can log in on their behalf [03:07:26] or, you will have to redesign the system to run on their browser [03:07:27] but would it be able to track all the different logins [03:07:45] yeah i was thinking about making Javascript / JSON versions of everything.... [03:07:53] im just worried about the server getting confused [03:08:46] there is a separate process for each invocation of php [03:08:55] oh ok [03:09:11] then it should be simple enough to make the PHP login at the beginning of the page load, and then log out at the end [03:09:26] no need to log out [03:09:35] but you do need to log in at the beginning [03:10:44] and for that i need their passwords :-/ :-/ [03:10:50] unfortunately [03:11:00] that's the advantage of javascript [03:11:00] JSON it is [03:11:38] thank goodness for jQuery [03:15:54] I'm wondering if I can move a mediawiki installation [03:17:18] if I were to be moving the files from a testing subdomain to folder in a live site, what would I need to change? [03:17:40] nothing [03:17:53] unless you want to use a different database or something [03:18:06] it would be using the same database [03:18:16] so there aren't any paths or things like that? [03:18:24] nope [03:18:51] ok, I'll let you know how it goes [03:19:01] just moving the files now [03:20:54] hmm something's not right [03:20:58] just getting a blank page [03:23:56] mship: you may need to fix $wgScriptPath in LocalSettings.php [03:27:09] 03(NEW) Enable form filling from query string on protect form - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12750 15enhancement; normal; MediaWiki: Page rendering; (danny_b) [03:29:32] it's set $wgScriptPath = "/w"; for testing, and the url that I'm loading indeed is domain.tld/ [03:29:46] /w that is [03:30:23] changing it doesn't really do anything [03:31:29] I see another clean install, complete with a litany of hacks to be applied, in my future [03:32:00] mship: check the FAQ? [03:33:26] mship: it should be clean. you don't get anything if you directly load index.php? [03:33:52] 03(NEW) First tab character in a preformatted paragraph converted to wrong number of spaces - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12751 minor; normal; MediaWiki: Page rendering; (x00000000) [03:35:21] carl-m: nothing at all, but the http header is 200 OK [03:36:03] and I was a little overwhelmed at the size of the faq ... I'm not sure if there's something in there that's useful to me or not [03:36:10] can you point me to a page? [03:39:04] mship: you should get _something_ from index.php. maube you should check the webserver error log to see if it has an explanation [03:45:13] Hi, does anyone here know who I can ask about getting commit access to the MW codebase (or at least a couple of files in it)? [03:48:19] Question: My wiki might end up with 100gig of data (in the upload dir) and if it does I may need to move it around onto it's own download server or move it's spot on the server. Is there an extension or something which allows me to change the uploads directory? [03:51:05] TimStarling - Hi there, I saw you have done some development on the database class, and was wondering if you know how I could get commit access to maintain another database subclass (SQLite) in the codebase...? would that be something the dev team would be in to do you think? [03:51:44] *AaronSchulz giggles [03:52:54] Aranad: Just message wikitech-l saying you want commit access for that, you don't have to wait for that to hack sqlite access in through, you could do it now [03:53:04] Aranad: and post a patch if there's a bug for it, or create a new one [03:53:34] what avar says [03:53:35] hi avar [03:53:47] haven't seen you around in a while [03:53:52] Aw right, thanks :) - I'm not very familiar with the MW svn procedures.... [03:54:09] TimStarling: I'm always around, I just lurk:) [03:55:08] TimStarling: I've been following things somewhat recently, good work on the parser [03:55:27] drivermadness: it's all configurable where the upload directory is [03:55:33] see DefaultSettings [03:55:45] thank you [03:56:25] you know, I've been meaning to ask you since September last year, have you seen the t-shirts that were distributed at wikimania? [03:56:31] someone must have told you [03:57:05] wikimania last year? no, I just saw some of the ones I bought at the boston WM [03:57:55] Ward Cunningham and Mark Dilley had tens of t-shirts that they were giving to everyone for free, they were very keen [03:58:12] they have "diff to penultimate revision" written across them in green and yellow [03:58:39] Ah, yes I remember someone telling me about that, I just forgot about it:) [03:58:45] that phrase of course has been removed from mediawiki for a while now [03:58:51] but it lives on in t-shirt form [04:00:22] The credit for that isn't mine though. I think I joined #wikipedia one day asking them for a succinct way to say "the second latest" [04:00:53] mmm [04:01:32] well, "penultimate" is a reasonable response to that question [04:01:58] What does it say now? [04:02:02] http://www.kithfan.org/work/transcripts/three/hecfired.html "welcome to the pit of penultimate darkness" [04:02:04] I think putting it together into the phrase deserves the bulk of the credit [04:02:07] "last change" [04:03:24] it's an odd place to use that word, that's why it's amusing [04:08:24] TimStarling: you ever hear of Daniel Dennet and John Searle? [04:09:47] no [04:10:38] TimStarling: maybe I should give up and use a "null interpretation" on the mind-body problem ;) [04:11:03] 03(NEW) space before/after »/« =?UTF-8?Q?=20=C2=BBguillemets=C2=AB=20conve?= =?UTF-8?Q?rted=20to=20=26nbsp?=; - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12752 15enhancement; normal; MediaWiki: Page rendering; (x00000000) [04:13:33] TimStarling: there's a fairly significant bug in the spamblacklist extension [04:14:10] MZMcBride: You say it's configurable, would this mean I cna copy all fixes on the current mw and move it to another server :) I guess I would do this in localsettings.php is this correct [04:14:36] yes, there are probably docs somewhere explaining this better than i can :) [04:17:03] 03(mod) space before/after »/« =?UTF-8?Q?=20=C2=BBguillemets=C2=AB=20conve?= =?UTF-8?Q?rted=20to=20=26nbsp?=; - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12752 (10N/A) [04:20:53] drivermadness: i think if you move the files, you'll have to run a maintenance script on the DB [04:30:43] IS there any modules that will create a drop down navigation menu? [04:30:48] or extensions rather [04:32:57] you could make one in HTML and insert it [04:33:51] I was afraid of that... [04:34:07] To make it more fun, it has to be dynamically called. [04:34:33] there are secure ways to include arbitrary HTML [04:34:39] !e HTMLets | aBSDaemon [04:34:39] --mwbot-- aBSDaemon: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:HTMLets [04:34:59] I've just been working with that today to do iframes [04:35:23] have you looked at the extension matrix for a drop down extension? [04:35:31] yeah [04:35:38] ok [04:36:33] Sometimes, though, I've found there are extensions others know about that aren't in the matrix [04:36:53] well, in a perfect world, all the extensions would be listed there... [04:37:10] but for what you want to do, HTMLets sounds like the best option [04:38:17] As I go I'm building my own repository of every module I've need thus far, copy 'n pasted code, then created a Readme with the author's instructrions, and made .zips. [04:38:34] So far I've put 83 up on a website. [04:39:01] .zip or .tgz. [04:39:23] modules --> extenions? [04:39:29] extensions, even [04:39:40] yeah, extensions [04:40:03] sorry, I work around Drupal mostly. So habits to call additions modules [04:40:23] Especially at 11PM when I've been working for 16 hours...lol [04:40:50] :) [04:44:52] carl-m: if I do a CURL call with the user/pass should that solve my problem?

[08:10:43] sweet [08:10:57] how about disabling it if the userID is 0 as well? [08:12:11] *Werdna rolleyes.

[08:19:26] is there an easy way to make shortcuts to articles in your default ns, or are they automatic in some way? Like, /WP:Help goes to /Wikipedia:Help [08:20:00] Kyrin: edit WP:Help, write this in it: #redirect[[Wikipedia:Help]] [08:20:19] on wikipedia, WP is a namespace alias ($wgNamespaceAliases), so you can also write WP:Foo and it means Wikipedia:Foo automatically [08:20:29] (so there's no redirect in that particular case) [08:20:39] thx, that's exactly what I was looking for [08:31:12] I successfully installed wiki.

[08:39:37] MediaWiki:Sidebar is giving me 404 [08:41:26] then your url is probably wrong [08:41:31] the page called MediaWiki:Sidebar on your wiki [08:42:05] http://ninethsense.best4service.net/ is the link [08:42:39] .. so ... http://ninethsense.best4service.net/MediaWiki:Sideba ?

[08:43:02] go to your wiki, type MediaWiki:Sidebar into the search box, press 'go', when the search page comes up, click the 'create this article' link [08:43:11] ah ok [08:43:58] searching worked ;) [08:46:49] great ... I edited and now i have errors :P - PHP Notice: Undefined variable: heading in E:\Domains\ninethsense.best4service.net\wwwroot\includes\Skin.php on line 1643 [08:46:53] let me digg [08:51:06] Nineth: Did you configure your wiki to print php notices? That notice shouldn't be there. [08:51:35] I didnt do anything. I am new to mediawiki [08:53:13] what to do? - In localsettings.php I added two lines - $wgLogo = "common/images/ninethsense.jpg"; $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; [08:53:15] nothing extra [08:53:58] Isnogud: the problem is worse, mediawiki shouldn't print notices even if the config is enabled [08:54:09] I installed mediawiki in IIS [08:54:15] Nineth: You edited the article and saved it. after that you got the notice message that you have mentioned? [08:54:22] well. ok. thats it. [08:54:44] Nineth: what version are you using? [08:54:53] 1.11.0 [08:54:59] php 5, mysql 4 [08:56:17] Nineth: what exactly did you write in MediaWiki:Sidebar? [08:56:36] I removed * navigation and added ** test at the bottom [08:57:18] removing * navigation is not allwed? [08:57:48] you need a heading (*) before an item (**). i see why the notice is generated. but it shouldn't prevent the page to load [08:58:13] Nineth: edit includes\Skin.php. after line 1612 (which should be: $bar = array();) add this: $heading = ""; [08:58:14] Nineth: It should not print this Notice. [08:58:15] hmmm.. editing database directly will solve? [08:58:24] Ok [08:59:09] that does fix this one particular notice flyingparchment but it doesn't solve the problem, does it? error_reporting is set to 0 as default in MW. [08:59:35] so this notice should not be there. [09:00:08] My wiki site is back to life :) Thanks to all [09:00:14] Isnogud: where do you see error_reporting set to 0? [09:00:31] Nineth: please file a bug on bugzilla.wikimedia.org, since this shouldn't happen [09:00:47] although it seems to be fixed in HEAD, it should probably be fixed in the next 1.11 as well [09:00:59] Ok. I will do. [09:06:02] actually i take that back, it's not fixed in head, but it doesn't prevent the page loading, it just logs notices [09:07:07] flyingparchment: ok. i don't fine the passage. i assume it's in wfSuppressWarnings. I have never seen notices except if i explicitly turned error_reporting to report them. [09:07:31] Isnogud: if you don't set error_reporting, why would you expect to see them? [09:07:42] (anything mediawiki did would override error_reporting in php.ini anywa) [09:07:55] depends on the webserver config? [09:08:16] or better on the php setting for your webserver. right? [09:08:20] the php config, yes [09:09:31] ... well ... yeah. i lost my point :) [09:11:30] Well... I am not able to reproduce the issue - I removed $heading = ""; and still the site is workign [09:11:48] try editing the page again, it's probably cached [09:11:56] ok [09:12:33] define: 'working' [09:13:33] yes, right.

[10:04:08] one week is the default [10:04:08] depends on setting [10:04:09] 5000 i think [10:04:13] per http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgRCMaxAge [10:04:33] but I think it's closer to one month on WM servers [10:05:55] is a bit random [10:06:13] if ( 0 == mt_rand( 0, 99 ) ) { [10:07:20] you can get entries well beyond the maximum, if the wiki is very dead [10:09:40] 03(mod) Patroller group inaccessible to stewards - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12518 (10dungodung) [10:10:04] heh [10:13:00] dung: wow, short list of special cases, and 'founder' could probably be skipped heh [10:13:15] well, heh [10:13:21] that's not my problem :) [10:13:26] rollbacker/patroller would make sense global, but most of the others, a steward can set themself sysop or -crat on the wiki temporarily [10:13:55] but that's not the point, spla [10:14:47] bah [10:15:01] then meta should simply have every right, even custom ones ^_^ [10:15:27] indeed [10:15:34] I am sure if every custom group that existed was added to every wiki, the enwpers would whine on both sides of the fence about it [10:15:41] but it would have to be maintained or stg [10:15:57] "Since it is here, please add access to set it for sysops!" "Arg, remove it from Special:Listusers, is useless!" [10:15:57] well, we don't need founder on meta:userrights [10:16:14] *Splarka grins [10:17:56] *dungodung pats Splarka [10:19:22] *Splarka burps [10:22:41] btw dung, how long does it take to search all pages on projects via the toolserver for a regex? [10:22:54] (if it is even possible) [10:23:34] hmm [10:23:43] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Migration_to_the_new_preprocessor#Expected_differences [10:23:45] dunno? [10:23:51] Splarka: loong time [10:23:57] some of these might be nice to find before the switchover tomorrow [10:24:00] ahh, darn [10:24:57] most are minor, but some breaking ones might included: commented out , #if-fing a variable without a null pipe, etc [10:35:33] why does SELECT page_title, page_latest FROM page where page_title='Ubuntu'; give me 5 values? [10:35:52] there's only one article and only the first one of those 5 is the latest revision [10:39:01] whereas SELECT page_title, page_latest FROM page where page_title='Hablov_zakon'; gives one value [10:42:59] dungodung: always specify the namespace! [10:43:14] titles are only unique together with the namespace field [10:43:16] ah [10:43:21] right [10:43:36] and also, without the namespace, the query doesn't use an index. on a big wiki, that would be *very* slow [10:43:56] ok, works now :) [10:44:42] 0.13s without "and page_namespace=0", 0.01s with [10:44:46] Guys, i need help, how integrate treeview in side bar? [10:45:30] Rolph: did you try the hacks suggested on the documentation page? (you mean CategoryTree, right?) [10:45:56] they might mean http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Tree_view [10:46:04] Rolph: afaik, it's not easily possible. the way the sidebar is built and integrated by the skin is not very flexible [10:46:06] i read this text [10:46:27] i use mono [10:46:28] Splarka: ah, didn't think of that one [10:46:50] oh, you wrote categorytree [10:46:57] *Splarka understands why now ^_^ [10:47:15] yeah, dues is good puppy :) [10:47:19] Splarka, yes, i use treeview4 [10:48:06] 03(NEW) Querying for N-Ary property with a type Text fails - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12754 major; normal; MediaWiki extensions: Semantic MediaWiki; (nitsche) [10:48:34] hello [10:48:39] looks fairly straightforward, some LocalSettings settings and some css [10:49:23] i'm looking for help... i would like to install a moderated wiki [10:49:52] i insert all what is need... but treeview not showed in sidebar [10:53:33] does it show normally otherwise?

I am looking for examples of how some publically viewable sites use custom namespaces [14:57:00] they would probably be in a drop-down box in Recentchanges? [14:57:31] and as checkboxes on a search page [15:00:33] AlexSm: Thanks that will get me started. Do you have any sites you could recommend I might review? [15:01:47]
