(google is your friend) [06:52:26] PHP Information Version 6.0.0-dev [06:52:43] well there you go.. that's the problem try with 5.2.x [06:52:59] hum.. ok wait. [06:54:11] Oh ok... yes [06:54:30] PHP 5.3 and 6 have a new set of OOP stuff... including namespaces [06:54:42] MW 1.12 still uses the old namespaces [06:54:43] class* [06:55:09] 1.13 is where it was renamed to MWNamespace to avoid conflicting with new versions of PHP [06:55:23] However, I can't guarantee how well MW will run... [06:55:33] Dantman, it still SVN no? [06:55:41] I mean, there is no stable version [06:55:48] ya, of course [06:56:01] But if you want unstable PHP, you misenwell use alpha MW [06:56:09] ok, now: PHP Information Version 5.2.6, let me start [06:56:10] ^_^ Personally I'd like to start a PHP6 compat project [06:56:30] work well :) [06:56:58] thanks all, let me complate, I hope there is no more errors [06:57:00] *exobuzz would just like a non shit php ;-) [06:57:30] hello! then i try to login i get this error: "Login error: mediawiki uses cookies to log in users. You have cookies disabled. Please enable them and try again." after this i am logged in but why i get this error if systems logins? [06:57:33] exobuzz: ^_^ PHP6 gets better... They completely removed register_globals and safe_mode [06:58:22] ingw3, enable cookies [06:58:41] Dantman: it is a start. but. well.. it is still slow. i know they will build in apc i think. so we shall see about that. also, the zillion other things which are wrong with php. including different naming schemes across functions.. tooo many similar functions in the core which should be split out.. [06:58:46] various other things which annoy me [06:59:13] Sasa^Stefanovic: if u mean on browoser? dats not working cuz i try ed many browosers and cookies is on. and by the way i didnt change something and before worked fine [06:59:20] yes [06:59:41] Dantman, When done, can I use any database from download.wikimedia.org ?

[07:42:33] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgAllowUserJs [07:46:20] OsamaK: the ajax stuff is off by default anyway.. the setting you mention is surely off by default i think [07:49:45] does anyone know how to configure virtual servers with mediawiki (1.12) ? [07:50:29] wtf http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Draft_Privacy_Policy_June_2008 [07:50:44] "The wiki will set a temporary session cookie (PHPSESSID) whenever you visit the site." [07:50:55] I hope that's not going to happen for various reasons [07:51:48] when configure a virtual server with lighttpd with serverroot: $home/wiki it allways forwards to /wiki which isnt valid [07:51:55] Nikerabbit: why ? [07:52:19] Nikerabbit: surely it uses a cookie for session logins now ? [07:53:07] exobuzz: *whenever you visit the site* [07:53:23] including anonymous visitors [07:54:12] ok [07:54:59] well. i dont have a problem with that myself .. after all,visits are logged on apache anyway.. [07:55:27] you will have when the site stops working :D [07:55:56] im missing something here? :) [07:56:10] cookies prevent caching, unless I'm wrong [07:56:23] i dont think so ? [07:56:58] caching is down to http headers etc [07:57:05] well i know cookeis are sent there [07:57:10] but i think more like datestamp etc [07:58:40] squid doesn't cache with cookies [07:58:44] except wikimedia's version [08:01:51] which can be, apparently, told to ignore cookies, unless told to not ignore specific cookies... sort of like the redesigned Cookie Monster that also eats vegetables [08:02:13] hiihe [08:04:26] Nikerabbit: http://www.squid-cache.org/mail-archive/squid-dev/200802/0085.html [08:04:36] oh. server side caches.. [08:06:45] Nikerabbit: the instigation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Tim_Starling/Weekly_reports/2008-W06#Vary_options [08:07:53] oh. speedups.. [08:07:59] nice [08:08:31] the vulnerability being you can fetch a wikipedia (or mediawiki) edit page, serve it on your site in hidden forms, and have anon users submit it via malicious JS [08:08:54] or do it all via JS using the API with callback (anon only still, of course) [08:09:15] a token or cookie for anon users would defeat this (mostly) [08:09:28] Splarka: do you know who "blogger" in question was ? [08:09:50] not offhand, but google might tell ya [08:10:52] well, the above are just possible instigations, the vulnerability itself being that the edit token for all anon users is the same, and no cookies distinguish them [08:11:42] since you can't really serve an edit token and then verify it when it comes back for dynamic IPs, unless you can serve cookies too (or other more nasty solutions) [08:12:16] the cookie at least prevents XSS abuse of it (except in some certain older mozilla browsers, IIRC) [08:13:00] ok [08:13:40] 03tstarling * r36322 10/trunk/tools/rg-vuln-check/ (README rg-vuln-check.php): [08:13:40] * Added --pairs option [08:13:40] * Added documentation for compiling parsekit [08:13:41] won't affect my install personally anyway, since we have no anonymous editing.. i can't be arsed with removing spam etc [08:13:44] anyway, there are worse BEANS out there [08:13:47] uhoh, he's alive! [08:13:57] *Splarka tosses vegemite distractors, and hides [08:14:01] heh [08:22:24] 03(NEW) Chinese Wikipedia articles statistics error - 10http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14553 15enhancement; normal; Wikimedia: General/Unknown; (shizhao) [08:27:25] shouldn't wikibugs also be on #wikimedia-tech? :) [08:27:43] no? [08:28:04] why? :P [08:28:21] i find out why i get error that cookies are not enabled. but they are - problem cuz i use external login system also for all / so cookies get duplicated. any ideas to fix this? [08:32:16] Splarka: does that mean it isn't an issue anymore? [08:33:02] that I don't know [08:33:36] I haven't been anonymous on wikimedia for weeks [08:34:16] mmm [08:34:32] me neither... so I probably have outdated information then...

I suppose it's cause you really don't need it all the time [08:40:12] exo: that assumes that they won't be page name based later [08:40:23] i just cache the tokens in my script. and separately for move/edit/etc even though they are the same [08:40:27] (and some tokens are, like rollback tokens) [08:40:36] yes.. rollback i dont cache [08:40:55] although they are only salted by the page name and the user name (relative to the rollbacker that is) [08:41:05] so you can happily click the same rollback link every time a vandal vandalizes a given page [08:41:19] i see [08:41:24] ^_^ heh [08:41:43] handy for if they vandalize more, between you loading their contribs, and them being blocked, I guess [08:41:55] the token bit is the biggest section in my api module.. i wanted to do them all in one function, and because they are got in different ways.. there is a bit of logic [08:42:03] 03(FIXED) Change autoconfirmed settings on enwiki - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14191 +comment (10Andrew) [08:43:01] it *would* be handy to be able to get the starttime, edittime, article/section content, edit token, and any other edit information, in one query [08:43:07] Unfortunately that can lead to some /happy/ issues when you roll someone back, they make a valid edit after that giving a valid reason for the previous edit... and you accidentally hit the back button to many times... heh [08:43:33] though... it was a accidental refresh for me I believe [08:43:35] heh [08:43:37] Splarka: would be nice yes [08:43:39] yes, GET actions are a bit... dangerous [08:44:03] I always thought there should be 2 levels of rollback, sysop level and rollbacker level (two rights or 'sysop' check or whatever) [08:44:07] Eh? I thought the RFC said that GET was supposed to be 'safe' ;) [08:44:08] one requiring a separate [post] action [08:44:15] Splarka: btw. with the api. i use POST for all parameter passing.. even though the docs show querystring. it was actually easier to do a post with the www perl library i was using [08:44:23] Splarka: but it works. so .. i guess it's ok ? [08:44:27] yah, many require POST [08:44:36] like any of the edit functions [08:44:41] heh, that isn't to say they once didn't [08:45:01] yeh.. but many work with get. it should maybe mention you can use post for all too [08:45:08] http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Splarka?action=history [08:45:11] see the edits on May 23 [08:45:26] I was able to make a random #wikimedia-tech user vandalize my user page via the API [08:45:40] "hey, didn't we require POST for edits?" "huh, I guess we forgot to" [08:45:59] there are good reasons to allow GET when save [08:46:02] ahaa.. by making a simple link [08:46:16] 03(NEW) refresh Data Script runs unstable - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14554 15enhancement; normal; MediaWiki extensions: Semantic MediaWiki; (dasch_87) [08:46:19] well, I also urlencoded all the text so it didn't look like a vandalism link [08:46:23] heh [08:46:28] heh [08:46:28] %69%74%20%6C%6F%6F%6B%65%64%20%6C%69%6B%65%20%72%61%6E%64%6F%6D%20%65%6E%63%6F%64%65%64%20%63%68%61%72%61%63%74%65%72%73 [08:46:32] nice [08:46:33] :) [08:46:41] imho rollbacks should be post as well [08:46:51] hard to open in new tabs on contribs though [08:46:52] technically it's an 'unsafe' operation [08:46:57] hmmm [08:46:57] anyway, GET is very handy for javascript [08:46:59] good thing im using post if more are being considered to make posts ;-) [08:47:19] especially with importScriptURI(), you can do nifty things like load a callback from another domain, no XSS security restrictions [08:47:37] (but callbacks and GET are limited, of course, because there are no XSS restrictions) [08:48:07] so, for example, you can get the edittime, starttime, contents of a section, and everything, but you can't get an edit token [08:48:32] and you can submit all the data XSS, but not via a GET (although you can construct the form and use .click() ) [08:48:33] It's to bad most browsers (Though safari seams to support it), don't let you use the normal command to open a new window, work with forms [08:49:01] heh [08:49:10] http://malus.exotica.org.uk/~buzz/API.pm - i handle token in the sub _get_set_tokens function. a bit messy since each token is got ina different way with different parameters [08:49:13] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Splarka/portalpreview.js [08:49:17] ^_^ though... you can actually use JS to change the method of a link [08:49:38] this uses the callback function of the API to get the current content of the site portals on meta, to preview them in a new window using document.write [08:49:40] ;) Ruby uses it to send DELETE methods for data [08:50:05] (but it uses window.open instead of a target="") [08:50:22] I hate target=_blank links! arr, evil on the intertubes [08:50:36] yuck [08:50:40] I put this in my userContent.css to avoid them: [08:50:42] a[target ="_blank"], a[target="_new"] {border:1px dashed #ff00ff !important} [08:51:14] Though... I also hate it when they put the JS for window opening inside of the href [08:51:23] heh [08:51:29] or have a perfectly innocent href="" [08:51:36] but an onclick that returns false and evil_do(); [08:51:37] heh. [08:51:53] or have a styled POST you to a link! asrrrrrrrrrkdhffafjh [08:52:07] hate [08:52:09] hmmm... [08:52:12] Splarka: the api really needs the file uploading. then it will be complete enough to replace most screen scraping bot code [08:52:27] ^_^ Let's experiment and see if we can use a method="" in a tag [08:52:49] well, "complete enough"... hmm [08:53:14] well. in our case anyway. it is the last thing we need.. [08:53:40] and im going to have to implement it temporarily in a nasty function which doesnt use the api [08:54:22] i mean the api is very complete at extracting information. more than anything ive seen before [08:54:54] 03(WONTFIX) Allow cascaded pages to be semi-protected - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14358 +comment (10Andrew) [08:55:51] http://rafb.net/p/1IJyJn82.html [08:55:56] why doesn't this work?

[09:03:12] you can just rewrite the location and reorganize the data when they implement an api upload ^_^ [09:03:49] well. there are situations like handling upload warning etc [09:04:07] when the wiki has a warning on certain sizes [09:04:17] ahh, well fair [09:04:21] that is nasty ^_^ [09:04:22] i know i can force it [09:05:01] well. anyway. im looking at the upload form now. seems ok. and no "token" at all ?

[09:07:12] 	heh

[09:36:24] Splarka, how ? [09:36:58] Splarka, lol, with your code, redirect appears twice, and strike doesn't appear at all [09:37:12] oh, there is some extra code in there [09:37:17] just delete the top redirect bit [09:37:29] oop, wait, no, not in the version I sent you [09:37:35] probably both bits of code are running at the same time [09:37:46] Splarka, [09:37:57] alnokta2 http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo?action=edit§ion=new&preload=Template:Preloadtest [09:38:02] patience [09:38:02] Error: enableWikiaWriter is not definedSource File: http://he.mirc.wikia.com/wiki/%D7%9E%D7%93%D7%99%D7%94_%D7%95%D7%99%D7%A7%D7%99:Common.jsLine: 514 [09:38:19] blame #wikia for their JS errors [09:38:20] Splarka, :) [09:38:36] preload lets you load a template into the edit box [09:38:40] but it only works on new pages or new sections [09:39:02] and the only parsing done on the template's text is the removal if [09:39:10] exactly what i want thanks Splarka [09:39:18] so if you have {{subst:FULLPAGENAME}} this becomes {{subst:FULLPAGENAME}} [09:39:25] so that when the user saves it substs' in the page name [09:39:31] this is useful for dates, or signatures, etc [09:39:43] there [09:39:46] now it works :D [09:39:48] but works too with plain text , right? [09:39:57] thanks a lot for your help Splarka [09:40:05] noprob [09:40:06] yes, it does [09:40:31] and now [09:40:33] math time T_T [09:44:18] hello everyone [09:44:21] got a question [09:44:37] what is SiteStats.php for? [09:50:12] Splarka, it cannot add subsections to a section? [09:50:52] nope, only new sections to a page (which are ==H2== level) via section=new [09:51:09] so it could add new sections to a subsection if you had an =H1= on the page [09:51:22] but only at the end [09:54:25] Splarka, ah what to change then ? [09:54:37] 03jojo * r36323 10/trunk/extensions/Collection/Collection.body.php: removed duplicate & debugging code [09:55:24] what do you mean change? it does what it does [09:55:36] change your needs to adapt to reality ^_^ [09:56:04] no i mean new == == inside -= = [09:57:09] well, not "inside" [09:57:32] but if you have H1's on a page like =Foo= and =Bar= [09:57:42] section=new will add new sections as subsections of the last one on the page [10:06:21] Splarka, what about preloading a section title ? [10:06:47] I don't think that is possible, but check the inputbox extension maybe [10:06:57] you could of course resort to javascript for that [10:07:24] *Splarka tests something [10:07:56] nope, &wpSummary doesn't work on edit via GET [10:09:06] Hey [10:10:43] Splarka: ;) Careful with that one if you get into sessions... some of us are plotting to add a new wpSummary to section editing and turn the section title into an actual section title instead of summary [10:11:17] sofixit [10:11:21] it is very silly as-is [10:11:27] Oooooohhhh!!! [10:11:35] I just had a perfect idea for the title rewrite [10:11:40] uh oh [10:11:45] heh [10:11:52] A real wpTitle field [10:11:55] Dantman: get Artur to open up Wikia's SVN first ;-) [10:11:57] wel, you could have /* take the title from here */ igonore this [10:11:57] also, hi [10:12:10] When in sections it is used for the section title as planned [10:12:11] nice and annoying but backward compatty [10:12:24] ^_^ And when editing a page normally... it can edit the display form of the title [10:12:56] well, you could just move the ==Section== to it, yah [10:12:56] That should be far cleaner than telling people to open up the movepage form to make minor corrections to a title [10:13:18] Hmmm [10:13:28] (but it would have to either have the ==crap== which would break backlogic, or an h1-h8 radio button array) [10:13:40] though, it'll have to normalize to the same title [10:13:44] if it ain't too broke, don't fix it too much [10:13:55] heh [10:14:01] then you'd need an md5 for wpTitle [10:14:03] bah! [10:14:16] huh? [10:14:45] hellou guys [10:15:04] did you know wpSummary has an associated md5? in wpAutoSummary [10:15:15] 03jojo * r36324 10/trunk/extensions/Collection/ (4 files): undo changes made in 36258 and 36260 regarding help page handling [10:15:26] Believe that has a completely different purpose [10:15:28] for people who choose to have the system remind them to always enter a summary, makes sure they;ve changed it [10:15:29] sure [10:15:33] ya [10:15:34] but it can serve the same purpose [10:15:41] Eh? [10:15:41] you can check to make sure they *haven't* changed the title [10:15:49] in cases where they maybe shouldn't have [10:15:55] it could be the post-normalization hash too [10:15:57] oh, I see, ok [10:16:06] [x] are you sure you wanted to change the title? [10:16:07] blah blah [10:16:13] *Splarka shrugs [10:16:15] brb [10:17:20] Also, we'll likely use something like what's on Special:Upload to query the API and verify that a typed in title does match the normal title and give the user a signal that it doesn't [10:19:25] However the state of the branch is quite ugly [10:21:28] where should the main CSS file be? [10:21:32] I wanna add new classes [10:25:15] Nice to see the regulars on [10:25:32] Dor: edit a page on the wiki titled [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] [10:28:31] Hi there! I am having trouble setting up the language template, can someone please take a look at what I am doing wrong? http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Template:Languages all the #if statements are showing where they should be invisible :-( [10:29:58] milovanderlinden: did you install ParserFunctions extension? [10:30:10] no he did not [10:30:10] Mmm, I guess not.. [10:30:20] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ParserFunctions [10:30:22] Hey all [10:30:23] Is that the extension that hides the #if [10:30:26] got a question [10:30:46] it's the extension that understands the #if [10:30:58] things mediawiki doesn't understand, it shows literal [10:31:00] does anyone have a \vfague idea how to get SUL working? [10:31:30] Is there a language bar available where no parser functions are used? to simply display all languages. even if there is non-existing? [10:32:15] not that i kno of [10:32:27] you mean, link to the language code subpages of all languages of a given page? [10:32:33] yes [10:32:49] you could make one I suppose [10:33:05] Yes, I will then, hunt out all the bracets [10:33:16] http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/languages/Names.php?view=co&content-type=text%2Fplain [10:34:23] Splarka: got the upload working thanks ;-) [10:34:56] I did nofing! [10:35:06] hints and tips innit [10:35:08] :) [10:35:45] SUL [10:35:50] has anyone setup SUL before? [10:36:15] milovanderlinden: http://p.defau.lt/?gPO9Xhe4iV1gyRnadgbLkg [10:36:28] Prom3th3an: you intsalled CentralAuth? [10:37:58] give me two secs [10:39:25] yes [10:39:26] i have [10:39:56] im getting an internal server error [10:40:06] what error? [10:40:08] how to add link to page with all my categories ? I now how to add link to side panel but don't know how to link on page with all categories [10:40:20] i just installed it (central auth) [10:40:25] im getting error 500 [10:40:31] on the web server [10:40:45] Most likely causes: [10:40:46] The website is under maintenance. [10:40:48] The website has a programming error. [10:41:14] Prom3th3an: you need to configure $wgConf to use this extension [10:41:26] Rajec: [[:Category:Foo]] lets you link inline [10:41:32] or you can link to [[Special:Categories]] [10:42:08] Splarka: I would rather something like http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Top_level [10:42:09] ok [10:42:21] 03(mod) Filters on Special:Ipblocklist by blocktype - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4391 (10maxsem.wiki) [10:42:58] Rajec: basically you categorize all your categories [10:43:17] Splarka: ? [10:43:31] you can categorize pages in mediawiki, right? [10:43:36] I just looked up the usage on $wgConf and im so confused :S [10:43:40] you can do the same for categories, that is what http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Top_level is the end result of [10:44:01] so say you have page named [[Siamese cat]], and you have [[Category:Cats]] on it [10:44:48] Splarka: yeah continue.. [10:44:49] well, in the page named Category:Cats you put in [[Category:Animals]], and on that page you put in [[Category:Biology]] and on that you put in [[Category:Sciences]] and in that page you put in [[Category:Top level]] [10:44:59] then in top level you can navigate down to that [10:45:06] all categories are pretty much manually created in mediawiki [10:45:22] (there are some automation tools like templates and bots that most big ones use though) [10:45:29] Sparkla: Many thanks for your tips. I now have simple language support without the extension! [10:45:39] 03jojo * r36325 10/trunk/extensions/Collection/Collection.body.php: replace addWikiMsg( ... ) with addWikiText( wfMsgNoTrans( ... ) ) to support MediaWiki 1.11 [10:45:39] Hey umm, would anyone like to setup central auth for me via FTP? [10:45:41] milovanderlinden: had an idea.. [10:46:10] 03(mod) Chinese Wikipedia articles statistics error - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14553 +comment (10pokok20030815) [10:46:17] using the names from Names.php you could also pipe link them, like: http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Splarka/sand&oldid=60544&action=edit [10:46:30] [[/wo|Wolof]] [10:46:47] (only problem is, in that experiment, many names are encoded for php and that doesn't look too pretty in html) [10:47:17] Sparkla: Thanks for your suggestions, but I do not have php access to the wiki. It is maintained by someone else. But I did copy your comments and will put them in to the committee [10:47:37] well, you don't need php access [10:47:41] you can just copy it and make a template [11:06:00] milovanderlinden: here is an example of the same code above, but with all languages named: http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Sublang_all&action=edit [11:06:15] (converted the directional unicode to HTML entities) [11:08:33] Thank you Splarka, for now my question is well answered! Thank you for your time! [11:08:43] rar [11:09:53] gotta wonder how https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1066 is coming along...or isn't, heh [11:18:08] Hi there [11:18:39] hi [11:18:52] Is it possible to modify only the main page content? (Maybe in the skin?) [11:19:10] be more specific please [11:19:17] edit Main_Page ? [11:19:25] I want to add some html to the main page [11:19:38] But it's a form so it can't be done editing the page [11:19:38] in the main content area? you can just edit it [11:20:02] ok... why didnt you say "i want to add a form to the main page" first! :) [11:20:16] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Simple_Forms [11:20:26] thanks, let me see [11:20:29] maybe ? [11:20:38] i just typed "forms mediawiki" on google. [11:21:26] I was searching for editing main page using the skin [11:25:12] rather than searching for what you wanted to do. logical! ;-) [11:25:53] I think this extension could solve my problem, thanks ;) [11:26:00] np [11:39:26] where should the general .css file be? [11:39:32] I want to add new classes [11:39:41] does anyone know? [11:39:49] Dor: MediaWiki:Common.css [11:40:19] thanks [11:43:54] What access rights would you need to alter the media wiki namespace [11:44:25] 'editinterface' [11:44:33] default to sysop/crat [11:45:44] Only sysop [11:47:12] ahh, but a crat can by default sysop themselves [11:47:17] > default to sysop/crat stands [11:47:36] Splarka: No, it just so happens that virtually every bureaucrat is a sysop too [11:47:50] Look at DefaultSettings.php: bureaucrats just have userrights rights, not much else [11:48:01] ... [11:48:10] yes, and with it they can make themselves a sysop if they are not already [11:48:21] meaning they can, with one extra step, acquire the edit interface group [11:48:22] Oh right I forgot about that xD [11:48:37] *Splarka adds smaxage to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Parameters_to_index.php [12:00:23] hello guys, when I export from one mediawiki system (eg: en Wikipedia), and want to import to another mediawiki system (eg: ar WikiSOURCE), do I need to change the namespaces..etc.., or remove them? or just keep them? [12:05:34] anubis, i don't understand your question exactly [12:06:03] LordAnubis: What do you mean with namespaces in this regard? [12:07:04] on the face of it, your question is really weird, since you should probably not be exporting entire pages from WP and importing them into wikisource [12:07:40] offhand, though, if you do have such a need, i suggest you just do it straight across, ignoring any namespace issue [12:07:56] and if on the target wiki, you think the namespace should be changed, do a move there [12:08:13] you could even delete the automatically generated redirect if you wanted [12:08:29] 03(NEW) Codefix for this extension - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14555 normal; normal; MediaWiki extensions: Contributors; (mick) [12:08:30] i wouldn't monkey with the export file [12:09:12] i just had a sudden, maddenning urge for a large bag of greasy french fries [12:09:16] 03(mod) Codefix for this extension - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14555 (10mick) [12:10:38] 03(mod) Codefix for this extension - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14555 +comment (10roan.kattouw) [12:11:07] 03(mod) Codefix for this extension - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14555 (10roan.kattouw) [12:12:18] 03(ASSIGNED) Codefix for extension DocumentApproval - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14555 summary (10mick) [12:13:00] roan, are you on line?

[14:55:37] Cause mediawiki allows external linking, and many people poked the devs to support it? [14:55:57] Why would you need the Image map to externally link? [14:56:34] right now we have some really ingenuous vandal using it to spam Avril Lavigne through template transclusion [14:56:47] which brings me to another question [14:56:48] Plenty of reasons... just because you don't have one... doesn't mean others won't [14:56:56] Why isn't the template space semi protected? [14:57:11] Open editing [14:57:20] <^demon> You know, ImageMap doesn't make use of $wgAllowExternalImages [14:57:24] *^demon fixes that [14:57:46] Why restrict templates when content isn't restricted [14:58:12] because templates are complex content much like the MediaWiki space? :D [14:58:20] No, not really [14:58:20] has anyone run across a problem with printing pages with large wiki tables on it? [14:58:23] also, I need to find me an en.checkuser [14:58:35] In fact their original purpose is quite the opposite [14:58:38] Ryulong: Well, then you're in the wrong channel. [14:58:43] i.e., the table bleeds from one page to the next [14:58:44] I know [14:58:46] It's users who changed that [14:58:47] I'm just saying things [14:59:05] 03demon * r36336 10/trunk/extensions/ImageMap/ImageMap_body.php: No point in allowing external images in an ImageMap if we don't allow external images period. [14:59:28] Templates are supposed to be sniplets of WikiText which can be transcluded into articles where they are commonly used [15:00:01] that's not what they are, though [15:00:08] anymore, at least [15:00:25] You can use the same complex template syntax in any other namespace. [15:00:41] Anyways pointlessly restricting the Template: namespace just provokes people to use the content namespaces instead of the Template: namespace. [15:01:17] Well, as most projects focus on content rather than navigability [15:01:31] MediaWiki is a platform geared primarilly towards open editing... not higherarchical access [15:01:33] <^demon> Dantman|FS: Anywho, problem solved with ImageMap. It *doesnt* make sense to allow ext. images in an ImageMap if you've otherwise disabled them. [15:01:56] ^demon: but what about allowing the use of external links instead of internal links? [15:02:12] Ryulong: That is not going to be prevented. [15:02:18] So [15:02:34] It's going to be permissible to use to link to other websites? [15:02:40] Sure, why not? [15:02:41] 03demon * r36337 10/trunk/extensions/ImageMap/ImageMap_body.php: Helps to declare the global. [15:02:51] What purpose would it serve on our end? [15:03:36] You're not answering my question, I asked "why not?" - if you can't answer that then there is no reason to change existing behvaviour that much of the populous is satisified with. [15:04:06] :/ 'You' may not want it... but others do... It's a perfectly valid functionality of MW and there's no reason for it not to be included in something meant to bring links into images [15:04:34] <^demon> Ryulong: ImageMap is used by people other than enwiki, no point in changing functionality because of one vandal on enwiki. [15:04:35] Because Wikimedia sites need not mix the aesthetics of using an image to externally link to some other website [15:05:02] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:ImageMap#please_support_external_links_in_the_new_version [15:05:32] so...time to remove that for en.wiki :D [15:05:38] I don't think so. [15:05:53] Please link to community consensus regarding it being disabled on enwiki. [15:05:53] Given a consensus to do so [15:05:54] Ya... for that, you'll need community concensus [15:06:26] <^demon> I might be pointing out the obvious, but....block the vandal? [15:06:35] It's been happening [15:06:44] But no one seems to be checking to block it for longer [15:06:55] I also don't know which damn board to do that on [15:07:19] ^_^ trying to get features removed from something won't solve your vandal issues... they'll just vandalize in another way [15:07:22] village pump, perhaps [15:07:33] Dantman|FS: that's poor logic though [15:07:39] and, why don't the vandals just use standard links; surely they should be just as effective? [15:07:43] eh? [15:07:57] MinuteElectron: WHICH village pump? [15:08:05] not doing something because people will find a way around it is poor logic [15:08:12] Ryulong: Let me think... policies? [15:08:15] especially in software engineering [15:08:32] if the company I work for did that we'd be out of business [15:08:38] No... but removing valid features because a few people abuse them is reall poor [15:08:56] But is the valid feature necessary in all places it is used? [15:09:00] valid? we have an enterprise mediawiki install and we don't use imagemap [15:09:08] Ya, you don't need it [15:09:08] 03demon * r36338 10/trunk/extensions/ImageMap/ImageMap_body.php: Ignore that...I'm an idiot. [15:09:11] :D [15:09:13] exactly [15:09:22] But just cause you don't need it, doesn't mean others don't [15:09:27] devnet: Then don't install it, but other people do use ImageMap and have a valid need for external links. [15:09:32] If you don't want it, don't install it... [15:09:36] exactly [15:09:41] If you don't want external links, there's a preference [15:09:43] it's an extension of core [15:09:49] how do I link to mediawiki.org through [[]]? [15:10:05] mw:? [15:10:13] If it's in the Interwiki map [15:10:20] Is it? [15:10:36] Anything portable and external links should be used [15:10:41] well I'm just glad we don't use it...seems like it's a headache [15:12:31] so back to my original question...has anyone seen a problem with printing in mediawiki for large wiki tables on a page? I'm getting a bleedover from one page to another [15:12:50] as an example: http://wiki.rpath.com/wiki/index.php?title=rBuilder:Image_Types&printable=yes <---print preview [15:13:12] I'm using FF 2.0.0.14 [15:13:19] on linux of course ;) [15:15:07] en.wiki has too many pages [15:15:10] not articles [15:15:14] just other pages [15:15:50] I remember discussing something with one of the administrators of another project and they said en was template happy [15:16:03] *devnet sighs...

[15:19:10] hi [15:19:22] I've avoided using bugzilla for that very reason :/ [15:19:24] what is the easiest way to have a link button on every wiki page? [15:24:19] bjwebb: depends on what you mean by link button [15:24:27] bjwebb: depends on what you mean by link button [15:24:35] a piece of html i want on every page [15:24:37] *devnet hate's the up arrow [15:24:42] lol [15:25:31] I have a footer I put on all pages inside a namespace but I do that with templates and transclusion [15:25:41] no idea how to get it to appear on EVERY page [15:25:46] is there any other markup than leading space which will create a block of fixed font stuff? [15:25:58] i.e. like code listing, but of a different color or something [15:26:12] basically, i want to visually divide input and output on a wiki page [15:27:05]
 
will work [15:27:29] yah, but they will produce the same outpit [15:27:32] output, too [15:27:50] i cant think of anything else off the top of my head [15:27:51] you want syntax highlighting for code? [15:30:19] RichiH: if you want syntax highlighting, http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi <---what we use [15:31:00] I'm still wondering if anyone has problems printing large wikitables??? [15:31:14] devnet: no, i just want a visual clue as to what block is code and what block is output [15:31:42] RichiH: you can use inline style and div's :/ [15:31:57] hrmm, yah [15:32:02] RichiH: or use CSS :/ [15:32:10] bout it [15:32:22] you wouldn't know if there is something pre-baked available? [15:37:46] *devnet shakes his head [15:43:06] now the scripts described in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Flominator/Backup_MW for backup up MW, they should both be placed in the root of my wiki, correct?

[15:48:48] Ltr: what exactly do you mean? you mean overwriting an installing you have? [15:49:05] My LocalSettings.php got blanked [15:49:19] I need to fixed it but leave the database and everything [15:50:23] you could just download the files for a new installing onto your own computer, and just upload alone the new LocalSettings.php [15:50:59] how can i get arbitrary html code into the sidebar? [15:52:52] for backing up my wiki, the scripts described in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Flominator/Backup_MW should both be placed in the root of my wiki, right? [15:54:29] but Smaug, I installed MediaWiki remotely - via FTP [15:54:59] Ltr: yes, so upload via FTP a new LocalSettings.php [15:55:13] if everything else is installed and it's just that file, just replace it [15:57:20] good afternoon [15:57:46] anyone have experience authenticating mediawiki against AD? [15:57:55] won't the configuration script produce different localsettings.php on my machine? [15:58:29] Where does the debug info go? [15:58:55] i looked in var/log/messages and the apache error logs [15:59:51] Ltr: the localsettings.php should have been in the files you installed originally. it's not created by the config (i don't think), though you have to move it out of some directory into the root direcotry [16:00:03] as per instructions [16:00:23] Smaug, any ideas on my AD question [16:00:26] ie LDAP [16:00:46] wi43: no, sorry [16:00:52] hmm [16:00:57] shoot [16:01:14] wi43: i'm not getting my question answered either. and i have several follow-up questions. [16:01:30] i think everybody is out to lunch, b/c my question isn't that onerouse (the first one at least) [16:01:44] hmm, what is your question [16:02:58] There is no localsettings.php in the package i downloaded [16:03:10] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Config_script says that it is created by the config script [16:03:25] yes, create a mysql database [16:03:42] then untar the site to the web location that you want.. ie var/www/html or whatever [16:03:46] then go to that page [16:03:57] then go ahead and plug in your info [16:04:26] it will then create a LocalSettings.php which you can copy to your default root of your wiki [16:05:05] ok, ill try this out, thanks [16:05:15] yeah, no prob [16:05:42] Has anyone seen Ryan Lane or know his nic? [16:10:20] for backing up my wiki, the scripts described in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Flominator/Backup_MW should both be placed in the root of my wiki, right? [16:10:42] *Smaug was out for a few minutes [16:10:57] Does anyone know the code in wiki to keep a link a link even when you are viewing the page of that link? [16:11:23] HypedZJ: That's not really possible. [16:11:36] HypedZJ: no, but as a workaround you could have a link to a page that redirects to what you are viewing [16:11:48] got it [16:13:59] what's the currently prefered way to handle extension messages (e.g. for wfMsg)?

Wikimedia Commons admins have a significant practical need to see deleted images on other WMF projects, but the word on the street is that some large projects will only accept this if the right is limited to image/image talk. [17:51:33] hmm, that seems a bit weird [17:51:44] probably it should be generalizable [17:52:00] like a set of viewdeleted-ns* rights [17:52:08] though that might be a bit crazy [17:52:25] brion, I wouldn't mind doing ones per namespace.. but it's such a stupid special case. ;) [17:52:35] perhaps best to integrate with the namespace permissions array already in there (how reliable is that? is it specific to reads or general for various actions?) [17:52:57] not sure offhand if it's the best way to handle that anyway tho [17:53:21] I just got the idea, of include a check for the wellformatedness of the html in mediawiki, just to inform the editor of the page, would anybody like or dislike it? [17:53:50] (I resisted the idea of limiting it to image namespace until it was clear that it would easily be approved with that limitation and never be approved without it) [17:54:15] brion, okay, I'll feel around the code and see if an obvious less-ugly general solution becomes apparent. [17:54:56] good luck [17:55:13] well i wouldn't approve the code change with that specific hard-coded limitation ;) [18:03:00] <^demon> brion: Updated the patch to the wfGetSvgSize(), now with less error ;-) [18:03:38] w00t [18:09:26] <^demon> Doesn't default to 256x256 anymore.

[20:49:02] Whenever I try to add in a logo to my wiki using $wgLogo = 'photoname.jpg'; , I get the following error: [20:49:09] Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/denisius/public_html/erandiawiki/LocalSettings.php on line 41 [20:49:28] say if you upload a PDF to the wiki [20:49:38] so what does line 41 read in LocalSettings? [20:49:39] management says "take that down, that's sensitive data" [20:49:49] so you click the "delete" tab, and it goes away [20:50:02] ah [20:50:04] gotcha [20:50:17] ^demon: Thank you! [20:50:18] where it actually goes, by default is images/deleted, which is ordinarily protected by .htaccess and some practical obscurity [20:50:28] $wgLogo = 'http://yourwiki.org/wiki/images/6/62/photoname.jpg' [20:50:38] The link itself, is the link to my image. [20:50:49] but the files are still going to be viewable if you can work out the URL [20:51:22] so you should configure it to use a directory for deleted images that's right out of the public document tree [20:51:37] or else configure IIS to forbid access to that directory [20:51:41] Any idea on how to fix that? [20:52:11] Denisius: look up at the previous line. bet it's missing the ";" at the end [20:52:12] TimStarling: hmm. good idea. I'll keep that at the back of my mind. [20:52:27] Denisius: try ; at the end but better is sth like $wgLogo = "$wgScriptPath/wiki.png"; [20:52:36] TimStarling: since 4 wikis are missing the rc_user_text index, any chance someone might add them ? [20:52:44] Luckily there's an approval process management goes through before stuff gets posted, so I'm not overly worried about that. [20:53:03] which 4? [20:53:04] TimStarling: any other snafus that you can think of? [20:53:07] Thanks, it is now working properly. [20:53:11] brion: I can set the includes folder to "tile" again :) [20:53:19] TimStarling: ask brion, I don't remember [20:53:30] mikedub: no, but then I haven't actually used IIS ever [20:53:57] TimStarling: I hadn't either. :) [20:54:25] maybe I'll document my journey for posterity [20:54:42] 03raymond * r36357 10/trunk/extensions/ (6 files in 6 dirs): Add 'svn-revision' and 'svn-date' to extensionCredits where missing for extensions used on WMF servers [20:56:24] 03(mod) Change autoconfirmed settings on enwiki - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14191 (10ned) [20:56:43] I have ( $wgStrictFileExtensions = false; ) as well as ( $wgFileExtensions = array ('png', 'gif', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'pdf', 'flv'); in my Localsettings >>however, I am getting an error "The file is corrupt or has an incorrect extension.

[21:02:09] can one at all? [21:03:10] i don';t think you can [21:03:16] you can estimate it [21:03:54] but it's probably better to just say you're measuring the number of unique visitors, instead of the number of subscribers [21:04:08] because that's the best you can do [21:05:01] ok thanks. [21:05:27] TimStarling, earlier today, i was doing a lot of deletions on arwikibooks, everynow and then, i get a page where it looks like i'm not logged in and whines about not having permission, if i click back and delete again.. it deletes fine.. is that a bug of firefox 3? [21:06:08] probably a polluted cache [21:06:21] the readers read the wiki markup for Special:Newpages which is quite useless. is there a work around? [21:06:35] hmm, no, sorry, not for deletions [21:06:56] I've been awake for a long time... [21:09:32] *alnokta sleep 10h TimStarling forced [21:10:14] IO threads are not for you to force sleep on!

[21:17:23] no [21:17:33] ok, thanks [21:20:28] Is there a way to get a list of all Wanted Pages saved to a Text file? [21:25:22] does anyone know where I can delete the message: This page has been accessed xxxx times. that appears at the bottom of every page? [21:27:12] mogra, yes. using Auto wiki browser.

[21:28:01] why do you think its a good idea? [21:28:18] well, it is scaleable... you can use cache servers if you ever need them in the future [21:28:25] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgDisableCounters [21:28:46] I'm searching for an extension who wrote "article by " [21:28:58] Splarka, does it have any perfo. gain? [21:29:01] Or a function in MW [21:29:28] without cache servers? probably barely a nonzero gain...? [21:29:42] splarka - how would I go about just removing the message?

[21:33:46] josh43, you mean like subpages? [21:34:04] yeah, like so that it shows as a subpage in the sitemap [21:34:13] HypedZJ: deleting isn't always successful (the default may be used), try changing it [21:34:23] ok [21:34:24] oh..

[23:44:08] hey all. i'm planning on attempting to try to turn my wiki into a wiki family tomorrow. [23:44:34] I’m looking at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family#Scenario_3:_Quick_set-up, and it is a little confusing. I get that a central file is named LocalSettings.php, which in turn includes the proper LocalSettings for a specific wiki. [23:44:45] But if I am aiming to have wikis in different directories, like www.domain.com/w/ (htaccessed to appear as www.domain.com/wiki/) and www.domain.com/other/wiki2/, then if someone navigates to /other/wiki2, how will the LocalSettings.php in /w/ or /wiki/ get activated (I don’t know the real word)? [23:56:56] Why do admins have &action=history set to limit=1000 ? [23:57:05] Are admins assumed to have faster Internet or something? [23:58:56] 1000? [23:59:01] is that just you [23:59:51] Hmm.
