[02:34:43] lymeca: try it, and if it doesn't work, blame me [02:34:53] for telling you to try it [02:35:10] Doesn't work [02:35:11] =P [02:35:27] Rather than blame you, can I paste you the error and get some troubleshootin' love? [02:35:35] sure [02:35:49] *qsheets tries not to be blamed [02:36:50] qsheets: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ':', expecting ')' in /opt/mediawiki-1.13.0rc1/w/LocalSettings.php on line 201 [02:38:00] qsheets: line 201 is: [02:38:01] ???apibase??? => ???http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php???, [02:38:24] fix all the apostrophes [02:38:50] oh!

I'm going to try another PNG [02:46:07] Err, how do I find another PNG? [02:46:48] try a GIF: [[Image:Rotating earth (large).gif]] [02:46:54] *lymeca brute forces Wikimedia's archives for a PNG [02:47:20] Yeah that works [02:47:35] [[Image:PNG transparency demonstration 1.png]] [02:49:05] [[Image:Iceland-from-space.png]] doesn't work =/ [02:49:38] Hey that one works!!

[02:51:46] marketing^3 [02:52:09] lol [02:52:22] ? [02:52:55] Xiong: mind explaining? [02:52:55] qsheets: How can I tell shich are shared and which are specific to Wikipedia? [02:53:09] trial and error [02:54:02] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:OverlordQ/IRCRCBot [02:54:18] lymeca: your chances of getting a working image are greater than 50% [02:54:28] Hmm, interesting. [03:08:50] Okay, so when I upload an Ogg file the URL on my wiki is [[Image:blah.ogg]] which is obviously not ideal. Is it really the only way to access ANY filetype, with Image: before it? [03:09:03] Even PDFs or videos or... anything? [03:11:58] You can rename the namespace to something else if you want [03:12:08] lymeca: Media: [03:12:26] amidaniel: Where can I change it? [03:12:38] qsheets: Thanks, that's a good suggestion. [03:12:47] np [03:12:49] I think I'll use that. ;-) [03:13:00] No way to alter it based on file extension though? [03:13:05] Media: will work fine if not. [03:13:06] nope [03:13:08] No [03:13:49] amidaniel: stop trying to steal my customer, lol [03:14:03] qsheets: heh, sorry :) [03:15:57] *qsheets listen to Basshunter on iTunes [04:47:41] 03(mod) Image hotlinking from squatted domain - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14829 (10N/A) [05:09:24] 03brion * r38116 10/trunk/phase3/ (5 files in 3 dirs): (log message trimmed) [05:09:24] Start on some cleanup of how CSS stylesheets are loaded. Initially addressing only the SkinTemplate-based skins; would like to rip out some near-dupe code in the other skin types, with a little more refactoring... [05:09:24] * A skin can make calls to $this->addScript to much more cleanly list which [05:09:24] style sheets it wants to load, for which media variants and which IE conditional [05:09:26] versions. This replaces the 'cssfiles' array hack and giant pile of ugly [05:09:28] conditionals in MonoBook's template. [05:09:30] * 'printable=yes' and 'handheld=yes' URL options are handled transparently -- 'screen' stylesheets are hidden, while those with no media specifier are left. [05:13:48] does SUL pre-empt account creation on wikis i've never logged into? [05:14:00] 03brion * r38117 10/trunk/extensions/CentralAuth/ (7 files in 2 dirs): Revert pending review -- new tables etc [05:14:14] Xiong: ?? [05:14:16] Xiong > no [05:14:21] nvm [05:14:29] i.e. [05:14:34] it creates the account once you log in [05:14:40] i know that [05:14:53] oh you're saying does it prevent others from using it? [05:14:59] but does it prevent someone from creating an account with that name? [05:15:05] yes [05:15:10] that's what i meant [05:15:26] so once i settle current issues, i won't have to police the matter again [05:15:32] 03brion * r38118 10/trunk/extensions/CentralAuth/SpecialEditWikiSets.php: Revert another part of r37975 pending review (new tables etc) [05:15:45] oh you'll have to police the matter again, but it'll be something completely unexpected [05:15:46] lol [05:15:47] :D [05:15:48] ppl in #wikipedia are just stroking me off about the issue [05:16:19] i got on the ball 6 weeks ago and all wikis are done except id: and zh: [05:16:27] i have no idea what to do about them [05:16:59] contacted 2 bcrats on each wiki, no action, no reply [05:17:30] worst case [05:17:40] you might be able to just get a steward to step in [05:17:43] 03brion * r38119 10/trunk/extensions/Collection/Collection.body.php: Cleanup for r37989 -- we lost an htmlspecialchars() [05:17:49] *slakr doesn't know how all that works [05:17:55] and all the red tap [05:17:56] +e [05:18:07] yeh, you're right and if i thought about it, i might have seen that [05:18:12] i need to post to meta: [05:18:34] just be like "hey dudes, I tried contacting them two months ago, so... ermm.... ? " :P [05:19:14] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Steward_requests/SUL_requests [05:19:30] i'm not all that lazy that i'm not willing to do the work [05:19:47] i did contact crats on many wikis and went through a formal procedure on ja: [05:20:07] but i think i hit a wall on the last two [05:22:20] omg I totaly pimped my wiki's front page! although it's a bit gay now http://japanwiki.org [05:25:38] 03brion * r38120 10/trunk/phase3/ (RELEASE-NOTES includes/DefaultSettings.php): [05:25:38] Revert r38016, r38018 (change of $wgTranslateNumerals defaults).

Will fail to run when the [05:31:25] email address is confirmed through other means, such as a password reset; also [05:31:25] there's no corresponding hook for when the mail gets *un*confirmed, so would [05:31:25] lead to inconsistent state. [05:31:26] do you have SUL for the farm? [05:33:07] Xiong: why do you say that? [05:33:20] Xiong: about the cn [05:41:24] How can I change the color of external links? I can't seem to figure out how to change the CSS to do this. [05:44:31] 03brion * r38122 10/trunk/phase3/ (3 files in 3 dirs): [05:44:31] Revert r38068 "SpecialMovepageBeforeMove hook from Wikia codebase - allows extensions, such as spamRegex, to interfere with page moving" [05:44:31] This passes a MovePageForm, which seems unwise. It won't apply to the edit API, [05:44:31] and generally seems like a weak interface -- an internal UI object is passed [05:44:31] instead of specific information, leaving it unstable to future changes. [05:45:12] how many seconds did arcandio wait before leaving? a.external {color:whatever} ... but left too fast [05:45:48] brion-away: don't let the revert stick overheat [05:49:01] :D [05:52:09] *AaronSchulz goes to take a break [05:55:07] *qsheets explains to a friend how Heath Ledger's role as the Joker lead to his death [05:59:15] ok, scap time [06:01:01] isa some
