[00:00:33] when I go to the ...Template:Infobox_Album page, do I just click the "view source" tab and then select everything and then paste it into a new document on my wiki called Template:Infobox_Album? [00:00:54] right [00:01:10] except there may be quite a few templates [00:01:18] more than you would want to copy and paste... [00:02:17] how would I know which ones to eliminate? [00:02:26] Sorry for all of the questions.... [00:02:51] i'm not sure - problem is, there may be more than what you see just in that list [00:06:26] I don't suppose that I could convince you to set up a very simple template on my wiki, could I? [00:06:49] you mean as simple as Template:Infobox_Album [00:07:01] arg I'm still having an issue with tables with align="right" in them [00:07:05] no, much, much simpler than that [00:07:16] I made a few tables in templates to make information boxes [00:07:25] but when I put them right next to another [00:07:34] they stack from right to left instead of going vertically [00:07:52] and if I use style="Clear:Right" [00:07:57] the text doesn't wrap around them [00:08:36] tomlowry: what site [00:09:09] I tried making a template here http://www.dystopia-game.com/wiki/index.php?title=Template:Userboxes [00:09:12] that fixes it [00:09:28] but when I try to put another template inside it spits all the code out on the page [00:10:41] jlerner: just wanted to make sure that you got all of the info [00:11:45] what info [00:13:05] d'oh [00:13:06] sorry [00:13:18] the site is saxalliance.org/nasapedia [00:13:48] could i send the user/pw through a chat with you? [00:14:51] you need a registered nick to send private messages [00:15:15] ah, well, in that case [00:15:25] user: paulcreston, pw: creston [00:15:39] you should change that pw now ;-) [00:15:56] i will : ) [00:16:47] "Username or password incorrect" [00:16:54] i don't really have time to look at it though... [00:16:56] how badly do you need it? [00:17:13] tomlowry: What are you trying to do? [00:17:18] *MZMcBride has a bit of time. [00:17:21] sorry about that [00:17:31] And an open test wiki. ;) [00:17:35] try one more time... [00:18:44] MZMcBride: trying to create a template / infobox... not having much luck though [00:19:20] Are you trying to emulate the appearance of Wikipedia's infoboxes? [00:19:53] hi [00:20:13] yes, exactly [00:20:31] anyone got an idea, how to post a new entry in mediawiki? [00:20:41] daimos: Hm? [00:20:57] tomlowry: You'll probably want the CSS class from [[MediaWiki:Common.css]]. [00:20:59] just installed it on my webserver [00:21:25] wtf?? who changed the canonical names of all specialpages? and why??? [00:21:26] daimos: Edit a page, add a link, [[Example]], and save. [00:21:29] and i'd like to play around a little - but i dunno how to crete a new entry [00:21:43] datura: Oh dear... [00:21:47] Did it break something? [00:22:04] 03(NEW) Unclosed textarea tag in Eval extension - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13337 normal; normal; MediaWiki extensions: Eval; (lejonel) [00:22:40] daimos: Or, you can navigate to it directly via the URL. [00:22:45] MZMcBride: my monobook.js needs a serious rewrite now. [00:23:00] Hmm... [00:23:01] MZMcBride: i want to create a completely new article [00:23:08] my java-api, too, i guess. [00:23:22] daimos: Then go to http://example.com/wiki/Completely_new_article [00:23:42] and everything trying to find out which namespace link links to in bots. [00:23:50] datura: You'd think more people would've complained already had it really screwed up everything... [00:24:43] All of the Special: pages are case insensitive; they were changed to all use CamelCase for consistency. [00:25:00] expect Watchlist :p [00:25:06] MZMcBride: so there is no way to get a site in order to create a new entry? [00:25:12] except [00:25:21] Watchlist is one word. [00:25:44] like specialpage [00:25:47] daimos: I have no idea what you're after. [00:25:57] datura: Hm? [00:26:28] MZMcBride: i installed mediawiki on my server - now i want to add content [00:26:44] Then add content. I've explained how already... [00:26:54] You can either add links to pages and then click the red links. [00:27:03] Or you can navigate directly to the pages and create them. [00:27:38] k, so there is no way to add topic and content in one page? [00:32:56] MZMcBride: k, thanx - got it how it works :) [00:36:15] ARGGG [00:36:19] can nobody help me? [00:37:02] how can i create an automatic redirect - lets say from foo to foo-bar [00:39:25] Pyroguy: Hm? [00:39:56] daimos: When you go to create a new page ([[Foo]]), insert "#REDIRECT [[Foo-bar]]" as the first line. [00:42:30] thx again :) [00:42:57] No problem. [00:44:24] I have several templates on the wiki I manage [00:44:40] that create simple tables aligned to the right of the page [00:44:45] as little information boxes [00:45:00] but when I put multiple ones on a page, they stack horizontally [00:45:03] not vertically [00:45:37] Pyroguy: Sounds like you're missing |- [00:47:28] no that's not it [00:47:41] Have a link? [00:47:54] I just want to be able to list them off neatly like {{template1}}{{template2}} and have them go to the right of the page and stack vertically [00:47:57] yeah h/o [00:48:21] MZMcBride: one last question. how bout inserting links to pages outside? i only get a [1] [00:48:33] http://www.dystopia-game.com/wiki/index.php?title=User:Sergeant_Hobo [00:48:52] that one works because there is a table which contains them all [00:49:03] but I'd rather not have to do a table manually every time [00:49:13] !cheatsheet | daimos [00:49:13] --mwbot-- daimos: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Cheatsheet [00:49:18] Read that. :) [00:49:24] I tried this template here http://www.dystopia-game.com/wiki/index.php?title=Template:Userboxes [00:49:44] but if I try to put templates inside that it spits out the code :/ [00:50:10] MZMcBride: thx a lot - helps me a lot [00:50:14] so if I try {{userboxes|{{template1}}}} it spews out all the source from the userboxes template and leaves out template1 [00:51:03] You need to use conditionals. [00:51:25] hmm how would I do that? [00:51:30] And... I can't see the source of any of the pages. :/ [00:51:39] click on "edit"? [00:51:48] It says I have to log in. [00:52:27] arg [00:52:33] could you make an account? [00:52:41] I don't think it needs activation [00:53:03] Can you pastebin the contents of User:Sergeant_Hobo? [00:54:39] http://pastebin.com/d585b19f [00:54:47] I chopped off the bottom it's only text [00:55:29] hi [00:55:41] right now each of those templates is just a table including style="Clear:right" [00:55:54] if i want to add a custom link protocol on the mediawiki (like opensim://host-adress.org) [00:55:55] but that is a bad solution because it doesn't let text wrap around it [00:55:59] what do i need to change? [00:56:10] phrearch: Tried the FAQ? [00:57:01] nope, looking into it now. thanks [00:58:33] got it [00:58:39] jlerner: hate to be impatient... just wondering if you were having any luck [01:00:11] heyyy wikipedia uses an interesting solution [01:00:15] let me try that... [01:01:24] Pyroguy: http://pruebita.com/wiki/User:MZMcBride [01:01:38] That's probably what you want. [01:01:45] You need to number your parameters. [01:03:16] MZMcBride: could you help me set up a template? [01:03:27] Yes. [01:03:30] What are you trying to do? [01:03:47] I'd like to be able to have something like wikipedia has for albums... [01:04:01] for example, if you take a look at their page for the Dark Side of the Moon [01:04:10] the infobox that appears on the right side of the page [01:04:18] look at that page again, I broke it [01:05:58] tomlowry: Yes; I told you you were going to need some CSS classes from Wikipedia if you wanted to emulate the appearance. [01:06:27] ah [01:06:30] Pyroguy: You didn't "break" it. ;) [01:06:37] that's starting to make a little more sense [01:06:38] You put the text before the userboxes. [01:06:57] tomlowry: You're also going to need to install the ParserFunctions extension. [01:07:03] !parserfunctions | tomlowry [01:07:03] --mwbot-- tomlowry: "Parser functions" are a way to extend the wiki syntax. ParserFunctions is an extension that provides the basic set of parser functions (you have to install it separately!). For help using parser functions, please see . For details about the extension, see . [01:07:12] (Second link.) [01:07:30] Pyroguy: You can't add the text before the boxes and expect it to be placed after. [01:07:36] If you put the text after, it will act as you want it to. [01:08:21] k [01:09:13] a latin scholar are we?

[01:11:34] ok look at this page now [01:11:35] http://www.dystopia-game.com/wiki/index.php?title=User:Radz [01:11:40] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorem_ipsum [01:11:43] what I've always been getting... [01:12:02] Do you have ParserFunctions installed? [01:12:15] No, you don't. [01:12:23] You're also running a rather old copy of MediaWiki. [01:12:30] i'm trying to use a generator on the commons api.php and its not working! not sure if i'm doing something wrong or its a bug. can someone help? [01:12:49] Inkwina-m: Always best to just ask. [01:13:09] well it's not me that's running it [01:13:12] the url i'm using is here: http://rafb.net/p/3pDsxr32.html [01:13:18] I do the overhead the team has a webmaster [01:13:27] do you think an update would solve the problem? [01:13:45] I just know media-wiki syntax and fill out the pages [01:13:59] generator=categorymembers, the api complains that I need to specify cmtitle but I am passing that paramter [01:14:37] Pyroguy: Well, without the ParserFunctions extension, life is simply much harder. [01:14:52] what is it/where can I get it? [01:15:01] Any complicated template you find on Wikipedia or elsewhere uses #if: and #switch, etc. [01:15:06] !parserfunctions | Pyroguy [01:15:06] --mwbot-- Pyroguy: "Parser functions" are a way to extend the wiki syntax.

[01:22:23] how can I get [[Media:Foo.pdf]] to render correctly with a link label? i.e. [[Media:Foo.pdf Click here]] does not render appropriately [01:27:49] tomlowry: sorry, i won't have time look at it :-( [01:33:31] 03river * r31893 10/trunk/tools/trickle/ (Makefile proto.c rdcp.c tar.c trickle.c trickle.h util.c): [01:33:31] - SunOS 4 compatibility [01:33:31] - for compatibility with very old tars, if the filename and directory fits entirely in the 'name' field, don't use the prefix field [01:37:11] for takin backups of mediawiki sites - just dump mysql and have a backup of template changes?

[01:42:12] The place I work at has a gigantic wiki that they've split into separate wikis on a per-team basis [01:42:28] As it stands right now, it is the ugliest piece of garbage I've ever seen [01:43:01] I just want to restore it to its rightful wikhood [01:43:34] If you have any suggestions on things I can do, I'd appreciate it. I'm fairly new at this job, and I'm not trying to tell them their wiki sucks, but perhaps if I start doing some grunt work on it, they'll follow suit [01:44:15] and if someone i work with is in here, and somehow guesses this is about them: please add the standard Templates [01:44:23] *te sighs and walks away [01:46:40] BTW How can I purge a thumbnail?

[02:38:49] What is the recommended way to install MediaWiki with Debian Etch and a desire to have LDAP support? [02:58:21] Hi guys!

Any recommendations for a site for a single user updating it? [03:05:01] Or are there extensions that'll make it easier for an individual updating there "wiki"?

[03:33:50] skierpage: i assume you mean an interwiki link? Like [[Wikipedia:Main Page|this link]]? alternatively [[Wikipedia:|another link]] except the latter links to http://en.wikipedia.org/ [03:34:10] erm, *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ [03:37:04] I had two different questions, I'm not sure which one you're answering. I'm editing a wiki that doesn't seem to have either mw or mediawiki set up as the Interwiki link for mediawiki.org, I was wondering how I can find out its available prefixes.

[04:18:13] (er that might be the wrong name) [04:18:40] !mwbot update the docs for us :-) [04:18:40] --mwbot-- Hi! I'm mwbot, a bot that was quickly whipped up by Daniel Cannon (AmiDaniel) to help out around #mediawiki. Some quick help is at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mwbot, you can find all my source code at http://amidaniel.com/viewvc/trunk/MWBot/?root=svn [04:18:58] or is anyone working on that? is there a bug for tracking "diffs suck" issues and possible solutions? [04:19:10] o.o [04:19:14] *amidaniel slaps skierpage [04:19:48] Random832, I believe bugzilla should have some tracking bugs that are diff-related [04:19:49] can't mwbot follow our conversations and paste useful bits into the docs?! jeez, where's the AI 8-) [04:20:02] Random832: Feel free to take a whack at it :)) There are certainly better difference engines out there but none that quite so lightweight as diff3 [04:20:16] skierpage: Meh, maybe I'll work on it over spring break :) [04:20:29] look at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Republic_of_Central_Lithuania&diff=197522187&oldid=197510527 (this is from a 3RR report) [04:20:51] it would clearly benefit from matching the two lines starting " The '''Republic of Central Lithuania''' " [04:21:08] Meh. [04:21:13] {{sofixit}}. [04:22:45] ignoring blank lines, and trying each combination of possible lines within a "change block", is an idea [04:22:48] i don't know much about diffs [04:23:27] so, you mentioned diff3 - so mediawiki uses an existing diff engine out of the box, rather than its own custom stuff? [04:23:51] only for merging, not for simple diffing [04:24:03] what does it use for diffs? [04:24:12] include/DifferenceEngine.php or whatever it's called [04:24:28] Doesn't that use gnu diff as a backend? [04:24:37] no [04:24:38] gnu diff does word hilighting? [04:24:44] Is there any way to tell whether it's using the internal engine or diff3? Source, perhaps? [04:24:46] I didn't think any "differencing" was actually done by mw .. [04:24:54] MZMcBride: Yeah, yeah, shush :P [04:25:00] Much easier to just bug river :) [04:25:11] Heh. [04:25:15] MZMcBride: if it's merging, it's using diff3. if you're viewing a diff page, it's using the internal diff [04:25:25] Alright [04:25:35] Oh, ok. [04:26:18] the problem, as i see it is, if an edit inserts or deletes one line, and _also_ makes a text change to a nearby line, it sometimes (when?) compares the changed line on one side to the inserted/deleted one in the other side, rather than to the one that is the "equivalent" line [04:26:43] anyone think that's a good description of the most common visual error on diff pages? [04:28:54] *amidaniel flees [04:35:17] hi folks [04:38:08] I think namespace aliases don't behave well with watchlists. [04:42:10] eh [04:42:22] what i've found doesn't behave well with watchlists is namespace 1 [04:42:36] 03(mod) error with the parser function with CategoryTree - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13028 (10jeff.cropp) [04:43:10] i.e. if you have Talk:Special:something, it adds Special:something to the watchlist, and i'm not sure how that behaves, but it could act weird with editing the watchlist (if not for special, then for say Talk:Image:blah) [04:50:22] Random832: nice bug [04:51:00] what's the behavior exactly? I haven't experimented much [04:51:48] well, it is IIRC, supposed to add both the talkspace and subjectspace pages into your watchlist [04:52:37] so, it is adding the NS_0 page titled [[Special:Something]] as well as NS_1 [[Talk:Special:Something]] to your watchlist [04:53:04] but the former can't exist, and the link to it ends up pointing to the NS_-1 of course [04:54:09] so you end up with a Bad Title in your watchlist [04:54:31] like when a page is prefixed like WP:VPT on en.wp as a redirect, and it is later deleted.. [04:54:47] but maybe one got forgotten, like WP:VP/T, and then the namespace alias WP: is added [04:54:58] that redirect cannot be accessed by wiki means [04:55:53] ouch, nice, you can't remove them either! [04:56:02] -> 0 titles were removed from your watchlist: [04:56:02] Your watchlist contains 1 title, excluding talk pages.

[05:19:32] if i add "Talk:Project:Something", will it add "Project:Something" but NOT "Project talk:Something"? [05:19:36] because, that'd actually be nice [05:20:20] eh - too late at night... i should be in bed [05:20:22] night [05:20:54] zz ya [05:21:00] *Splarka tries it [05:21:50] looks like it just adds Project:Something and then Project_talk:Something by extension [05:22:08] ahh, and I was able to remove the Special too [05:22:19] Using magic? [05:23:02] Hmm... it'd be nice if user rights were listed somewhere on-wiki. [05:23:11] no, by editing the raw watchlist and trying NOT to remove it [05:23:18] MZMcBride: special:listusers? [05:23:35] No, I mean, like the [user] group can edit, move, rollback, etc. [05:23:48] And [bureaucrat] can rename, etc. [05:23:53] That'd be handy. [05:25:36] So... is that possible with JS?

[08:49:07] I'm using generator=categorymembers, but the api complains that I need to specify cmtitle which I am passing [08:50:32] hi [08:50:39] i was asking about importing images some days ago [08:50:52] at the moment i am testing here using importIImages.php [08:51:03] is it somehow limited regarding filetypes ? [08:51:29] or do i have to enable specific extensions before being able to use it for i.e. an .exe or .msi or similar [08:52:03] as: [08:52:24] this works: [08:52:26] :/var/www/wikis/abt_edv/maintenance# php importImages.php /var/sa mba/wikis/abt_edv png jpg [08:52:33] but this does NOT: [08:52:50] php importImages.php /var/samba/wikis/abt_edv png jpg exe [08:53:57] (After I submit a patch, am I supposed to change status to "resolved", or actually, common policy is to let commiters resolve & close the bugs ? ) [08:57:52] Inkwina-m: try &gcmtitle ? [08:58:30] NicDumZ: how would it be resolved if the patch is only sitting in the bugzilla? [08:59:12] Nikerabbit: just asking, this kind of policy really depends on the project [08:59:38] Splarka, Yup it worked :-) so there is a bug ... but only in the error message [09:00:00] yuh [09:00:13] NicDumZ: no [09:00:29] only if the project is backnuts and doesn't know how it is supposed to work :D [09:01:07] Very frustrating, as I couldn't tell if I was doing something wrong, anyway thanks, that way easy. [09:01:22] okay, guess I probably worked on backnuts projects then :þ [09:01:37] afk ;) [09:02:23] Niker: what if the bug is a request for a patch? heh heh... [09:03:25] is there a chance to check which file extensions /maintenance/importImages does accept ?

[09:15:32] odb|fide1_: imho it would make sense to allow such files via importImages - you would definitly not want them to be uploadable from the wild web, but importing them locally might be ok. [09:15:51] Duesentrieb: its a closed local network [09:16:03] so security is not really the issue [09:16:09] odb|fide1_: one way would probably be to override whatever you must in AdminSettings.php, instead of setting it in LocalSettings.php. That would make sense, but i'm not 100% sure it would work.

[09:30:35] Nikerabbit: that also means access to mediawiki proper [09:30:41] and to other people's extensions [09:30:51] Duesentrieb: afaik svn supports directory restrictions [09:31:06] and also where is the trust? all code in mediawiki should be reviewed [09:31:29] then why not just allow commit access to everyone per default? [09:31:35] no, i donÄt think that would be a good idea [09:31:39] best they can do is to create mess [09:31:48] "the code ayone can commit!" [09:31:52] we don't want wikivandals [09:32:03] and also someone needs to set up the public key [09:32:04] a separate repos for extension, with a more relaxed policy on who gets access sounds fine though [09:32:14] $wgOnWheels [09:32:22] wahaha [09:32:29] I see no reason it to be a separate but.. [09:32:34] yea, edit wars over software features. fun [09:32:35] /trunk/vandalism/ [09:32:43] hrhr [09:32:57] but whatever, having extension in svn generally means it is better maintained etc [09:33:03] so why is there no /trunk/houdini/, did he get out again? [09:33:15] Nikerabbit: i do think that allowing people to commit to mediawiki involves a higher level of trust than allowing people to host extensions in a central repos [09:34:08] Nikerabbit: well, it's also a question of cause and effect - would putting more extensions into svn really *cause* them to be better maintained? [09:34:15] i somehow doubt it. [09:34:31] at least most would get translated :D [09:34:47] hmmm [09:35:03] which means they are usually converted to use new i18n system and other small fixes [09:35:06] professional translation fees... $lots per page...

[10:15:20] And I would like to know how to setup my wiki as the wikipedia one [10:20:11] Duesentrieb: hey it seems the answer is in: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Robots.txt [10:24:09] problem with too big file warning: i set $wgMaxUploadSize = 1024 * 1024 * 20; and $wgUploadSizeWarning = 17 * 1024 * 1024; now when i upload a 18 MB file, it says, it is too big, when i upload a 23MB file no warning is given. somebody know why? [10:40:59] godwin2: one guess is that the 23MB exceed a limit imposed by php or by apache, so that data never gets to mediawiki. or is that large file actually uploaded successfully? [10:42:19] no [10:42:37] duesentrieb: php and mysql settings allow 20MB max [10:43:15] bah, importBackup is slowass [10:43:16] thanks, that makes sense. but can i change it somehow? the user dont get any warning [10:43:22] I guess thats because nobody uses it [10:43:22] godwin2: no. [10:43:41] ok, thx for help [10:43:57] godwin2: if you upload a file that is larger than what php allows, php will just throw away the data and the file will look empty to mediawiki. [10:44:13] maybe there's some trickery to avoid that,m but it's outside the reach of mediawiki., [10:53:11] i have an idea: i make the php size bigger, lets say 100 MB and disable the "ignorewarning" button on the warning page [10:53:23] or isnt this save? [10:55:38] safe enough, but people will be uploading up to 100MB before they get told that 20 is too much :) [10:55:40] when do you suspect the 1.12 stable will be released? [10:56:08] in a week/month/2 months/6? :-) [10:56:19] Duesentrieb is there a mediawiki extention that converts csv to a graph image? [10:56:43] piksi: couple of weeks [10:56:57] Duesentrieb: ok, nice to hear that! [10:57:00] White_Cat: tehre are some graphing extensions, i think one is gnuplot (which would probably be the tool of choice) [10:57:14] how can I use it [10:57:23] can you kinda walk me through this [10:57:29] I have lots of graphs to work on [10:58:22] White_Cat: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Gnuplot [10:58:40] White_Cat: google for a tutorial. it's not that hard. [10:58:53] gnuplot is powerful and can be complex, but the basics are fairly simple [10:59:04] (not that i did anything but basics with it so far. and it has been a while.) [10:59:19] 03aaron * r31906 10/trunk/phase3/includes/SpecialRecentchanges.php: Hide deleted items in feeds [11:00:00] Duesentrieb so can I upload a csv file to commons [11:00:10] no. [11:00:16] and use Gnuplot to make an image out of it? [11:00:21] White_Cat: no such extension is active on wmf projects [11:00:25] would be cool, but isn't. [11:00:37] can I request it? [11:00:47] you'll have to do it on your box. gnuplot can output svg [11:00:49] as in would I be publicaly lynched if I do [11:00:52] Duesentrieb: soooo as i've understood mediawiki always keeps a stable version in svn (like the 1.13 alpha they use on wikipedia)? - so would simply checking that version out be wise? [11:00:56] you can request it, but don't hold your breath. [11:01:13] Duesentrieb I dont think I can hold my breath [11:01:20] piksi: err? *all* revisions are in svn. that's the point of svn. [11:01:37] piksi: "alpha" is the opposite of "stable". [11:02:04] well iirc i read from mediawiki that the latest build is "stable for use" always [11:02:08] and that's why it's run on wikipedia [11:02:25] piksi: using the version wikipedia does is not wise, generally. you have to keep on your toes to apply all updates/fixes applied on wikipedia, and even then, some manual repairs may be necessary. [11:02:38] it works for wikipedia because we have the lead devs here watching the site all day :) [11:03:00] piksi: depends on what you mean by "stable" and "build". [11:03:00] Duesentrieb: ok then, better wait for stable - extension wise too :-) [11:03:27] piksi: php has no builds. the latest trunk is not stable in any way. the last version run by wikipedia is at least review by brion. [11:03:51] which means ther eshould be not complete screwup in there, but not much more. [11:03:58] :-) [11:30:41] is there something to genereate a "go back" [11:31:02] like [[LastSite]], or something like this?

[13:50:21] C-Otto: can you rephrase that? [13:50:24] yes. [13:50:27] (and what does that have to do with categories) [13:51:05] like: "click here to add information about yourself to this wiki" -> clicking opens an edit window where the person template is included (and filled in with comments or default values) [13:51:27] Duesentrieb: every person is a part of the "person" category, i'd like to have person index (like a phonebook) [13:51:44] i deleted the exntensions [13:51:51] so there is a category "person" (for finding them) and a template (for definition of properties like name and such) [13:52:00] and removed them from the localsettings and the error still happens [13:52:03] hey , how can I build a mod to register a new user and to login ? [13:52:15] and that template should be used to make page creation easy (and create a nice default page when someone only enters the data) [13:52:29] C-Otto: so you make a person-info template with parameters for the name, etc, and make that template also apply the person category [13:52:33] Duesentrieb: http://server.c-otto.de/termination-portal/ is some example (i added myself) [13:52:54] C-Otto: though such a category is a bit useless if it's applies to all users. that would be the same as looing at the user namespace [13:53:17] 03(NEW) Leading whitespace causes articles not to be recognized as redirects - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13344 minor; normal; MediaWiki: Redirects; (jlerner) [13:53:20] Duesentrieb: i already did that. now how can i make users (newbies, professors!) enter themselves without going to the process of adding a page manually and defining the template data manually? [13:53:49] Duesentrieb: okay, bad example then - but that idea can be applied to other categories (researchers, organizers, ...) [13:54:07] C-Otto: huh? where should that data come from if not entered manually? and one page per user is the usu8al case - that's why they are called user pages. [13:54:29] Duesentrieb: it should be a single click which opens a pre-filled editor window (showing {{Person, firstname=... and so on) [13:54:41] so they only have to edit/add their personal data and click "save" [13:54:50] fixed it ;) [13:54:51] http://uncrate.net/wiki/index.php5?title=Martin_Lighting [13:54:53] C-Otto: there's an extension that can be used for stuff like that.
