[02:23:14] not broken . just noisy for some people ;) [02:23:16] G'evening werdnum [02:23:17] Krimpet: by the look on your face, you obviously want to help me test the abuse filter. [02:23:58] I think my three homework assignments I have due tomorrow morning take priority here, sorry :) [02:24:17] Tomorrow, then :) [02:24:42] BTW, http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2008-December/097131.html [02:25:32] Hopefully that abuse filter won't be needed soon. :) [02:26:55] Krimpet: I hope it's needed :P [02:27:16] I'm encouraging anyone who's been a target of Grawp's threats to report them to his ISP or the local police, along with his phone number, which should expedite investigation massively. [02:28:08] I got DDoSed by him, actually. [02:28:28] Might be worth giving Verizon a ring. :) [02:28:49] Tell them it came from the residential DSL account of Ms. L.K. Zack-Hanson, (562) 431-7852. [02:29:30] I'm not sure if that's true, though. [02:29:59] werdnum, did it come from 71.96.0.0/11? [02:30:10] hold on, I'll take a look in a moment. [02:30:13] /11 is huge. [02:30:32] Simetrical, it is. But if it's the real Grawp, he's using mommy's DSL [02:30:33] Oh, you're saying that it would then be Verizon. [02:31:01] *Simetrical considers what happens if people are wrong and this poor woman is being harassed endlessly for no reason. [02:31:04] Lawsuit! [02:31:31] Simetrical, she wrote OTRS complaining her son Jeremy was innocent... [02:31:48] ...and then later that night Grawp vandalized en masse from the same IP address she sent her complaint from. -_- [02:31:55] Krimpet: thats the second mailing list letter about it [02:32:21] p858snake, I know, I wrote both :) [02:32:35] Krimpet: http://pastebin.ca/1285624 <-- the report I sent on September 17. [02:33:22] werdnum, that's very likely Jeremy. [02:33:49] Krimpet: yes, I think so. [02:33:52] but I got no response. [02:34:00] Does the police department have an email contact? [02:34:20] Yes, I don't think Verizon reads their abuse e-mail -_ [02:35:52] er, -_- [02:35:53] werdnum, no, just phone numbers listed on their website [02:37:37] http://www.usdoj.gov/criminal/cybercrime/reporting.htm [02:37:50] O_O [02:37:56] jeremy, where??? [02:38:03] FBI, secret service, or Internet Crime Complaint Center. [02:38:37] FBI is suggested for internet harassment. [02:38:57] yup [02:39:49] It would, perhaps, be sensible for us to put a number of complaints in one single complaint, submitted together to the FBI [02:39:56] after that girl that committed suicide recently due to internet bullying, the FBI will take it seriously [02:40:22] yeah, lets pass it through the OTRS and with mike's approval [02:40:46] That case just involved name-calling, too. Grawp has made bona fide threats of murder. [02:42:30] anyone have a trick to help me turn this into an internal link? [02:42:36] Krimpet: http://www.fbi.gov/contact/fo/focities.htm#l [02:42:49] http://grey.colorado.edu/emergent/index.php/Special:AddData/News/{{CURRENTMONTH}}-{{CURRENTDAY}}-{{CURRENTYEAR}}?News[Author]={{CURRENTUSER}} [02:42:55] reminds me of when a false political pedophile was hitting the politics wikia (after a press release announcing it), he was posting rather nasty support pages about it, and banners and crap. After spending a week blocking every IP and then range and finally his whole ISP (canadian), he started using proxies [02:42:56] well ppl who have been attacked by grawp from any wiki even outside of wikimedia should make a complain I believe [02:43:25] aib: You can't make that internal, but you can [ link ] [02:43:35] So I went back a week and got all the IPs and date ranges, and material he posted, and forwarded them to Angela who forwarded them to the local police (mounties?) cybercrime division [02:43:39] the vandalism stopped immediately [02:44:17] that is perfect werdnum thank you [02:44:38] Krimpet: didn't he recently join a uni? [02:45:00] if so, we need to get that uni's ip on our watchlist to ;) [02:45:12] WaRpAtH, he goes to CSU Long Beach, but supposedly doesn't vandalize from there [02:46:55] not yet, he may get a good-hand account from the uni [02:50:25] Hi everyone [02:50:39] hi [02:51:44] Was wondering if anyone could tell me what terms and conditions admins agree to when they become an admin? I'm trying to resolve a dispute. [02:51:44] Or point me in the right direction [02:51:44] None whatsoever. [02:51:45] you'd have to ask the admin of your wiki [02:51:51] mediawiki doesn't enforce that sort of thing [02:51:52] Wikipedia I'm talking about [02:51:57] try #wikipedia [02:52:10] researcher717: none. [02:52:25] that's true for wikipedia specifically, werdnum? [02:52:43] As far as I'm aware. [02:52:51] I didn't agree to anything. [02:53:14] I see there are no terms on teh site for ordinary users. In fact the disclaimer specifically says that you don't have a contract with them [02:53:45] Is there anything approaching terms that isn't quite a legal document? [02:53:50] No, there's no terms and conditions to agree too whatsoever. [02:53:54] to* [02:54:33] So you never click "I agree" .. You just have access when it's bestowed upon you? [02:56:00] researcher717 admins have aggreed to the privacy policy only as any normal user [02:56:11] MediaWiki is case sensitive, and I haven't heard of any extensions, hacks, or settings (and couldn't find any, either) to make it case-insensitive. Is this even possible or planned? [02:57:08] that's http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_policy Merlissimo? [02:58:36] every wiki has its one because of e.g. to national policies [02:58:49] but yes, that the general one [02:59:56] 02:56 < VartanSimonian> MediaWiki is case sensitive, and I haven't heard of any extensions, hacks, or settings (and couldn't find any, either) to make it case-insensitive. Is this even possible or planned? [03:00:06] Not that I'm aware. [03:00:18] hmm, okay. [03:00:49] werdnum, it's been something people have pondered for a while [03:00:52] . [03:00:54] No progress being made, though. [03:01:49] Reading through the privacy policy. This is a start, thanks [03:02:06] is there by any chance at least an extension to make the search case-insensitive, Simetrical? [03:02:26] Yes, that exists somewhere. [03:02:39] okay, I'm off to search for it, thanks [03:02:41] researcher717, the privacy policy is what Wikimedia commits to, and checkusers and stuff. Ordinary admins don't have to agree to it. [03:02:52] They don't have any info that ordinary users don't, anyway. [03:03:35] Simetrical, I thought they could access items in the Special:Log like deleted articles? [03:04:05] Oh, yeah, they get a little extra stuff, true. [03:04:35] Maybe you should tell us what dispute you're settling. [03:04:39] That would help. [03:04:47] Although this is still for #wikipedia, not here, really. [03:05:06] Just some people beating up on an admin for deleting an article.. [03:06:23] *werdnum yawns. [03:06:48] And he's being accused of violating privileges etc.. Wanted to get a background on it [03:07:08] Are there any other documents an admin that applies to admins? [03:07:49] #wikipedia [03:07:59] Wanna move this discussion to #wikipedia ok [03:08:09] sorry about this [03:11:21] strange.... [03:12:04] When I run maintenance\cleanupCaps.php in command line, I get an access denied mysql error, but I can browse the wiki fine [03:12:18] you need to create AdminSettings.php [03:12:45] ah [03:12:57] I ask too many stupid questions, imho. :) [03:28:37] 03tstarling * r44599 10/branches/REL1_12/phase3/ (17 files in 4 dirs): Backports from 1.13.

blah blah ablah blah blah
with a
foo
... is there a way to prevent mediawiki from doing this?
foo
[04:48:58] 	does anyone know how to install imagemagick? I've been trying for 2 days :(
[04:49:21] 	it's like it's escaping my div from the 
 block
[04:49:25] 	do not want
[04:49:44] 	morgajel: I don't think HTML allows nesting 
inside
[04:50:02] 	why would you want to, anyway?
[04:50:45] 	Vyznev: trying to create something similar to http://www.e-chords.com/guitartab.asp?idmusica=101620   <-- the chord names
[04:50:53] 	hover the mouse over C7
[04:51:32] 	Use JS
[04:52:01] 	You also probably want to use a div with white-space: pre; rather than a pre tag
[04:52:19] 	or, if you're going to be playing silly CSS games anyway, use a  and give it display:block
[04:52:43] 	hrm... 
[04:53:00] 	but I'd go with JS, it degrades better
[04:53:01] 	Vyznev: actually, I'm doing it with a ; I just saw the behavior with the div as well.
[04:53:25] 	when you say JS, are you talking about building the content with innerhtml or something nasty like that?
[04:53:42] 	JS for the mouseover
[04:53:55] 	I plan on it
[04:54:06] 	And innerHTML isn't necessary, document.createElement works fine
[04:54:12] 	But innerHTML isn't really nasty
[04:54:22] 	the problem is how do you create the box that appears/disappears?
[04:54:34] 	mouseover event
[04:54:53] 	I get that- actually I was gonna use an onclick, but same idea
[04:54:59] 	innerHTML has to wait for FF1.5 to die out
[04:55:11] 	Dantman: maybe not nasty, but it is scary, particularly when assigned to
[04:55:12] 	Oh?
[04:55:34] 	it's been a while since I wrote html... back when DHTML was new and scary
[04:55:45] 	it should really be named .yeahImReallySureIWantThisStringToBeParsedAsHTML
[04:55:50] 	so I'm still trying to feel out my limits of what's considered acceptable
[04:56:14] 	er, pre 1.5
[04:56:24] 	What kind of idjit sends non-html to innerHTML
[04:56:26] 	didn't allow innerHTML in XHTML
[04:57:12] 	Dantman: an ordinary common or garden idjit.  they're not an endangered species.
[04:57:18] 	FF 3 is already out... people on FF that old deserve a broken site
[04:57:53] 	we had one bug like that in our sortable tables code
[04:57:55] 	and with that attitude you shouldn't be working on a project that still supports IE for the Mac
[04:58:02] 	let me dig up the secunia advisory
[04:58:31] 	No... it doesn't support IE for mac... it makes sure to degrade
[04:58:47] 	Vyznev: see, I was gonna use the plugin to do something like this: http://pastebin.ca/1285693
[04:59:22] 	the div tag you see there actually houses a table which lays our the # of chords
[04:59:42] 	http://wiki.morgajel.com/index.php/Lucky_Boys_Confusion_-_Mr._Wilmington  <-- click on the G
[04:59:55] 	something like that
[05:00:25] 	but as you can see, it's throwing in those damn 
 tags around it
[05:02:36] 	Dantman: ah, here it is: http://secunia.com/advisories/24039/
[05:02:45] 	and here's the fix: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/19688
[05:02:57] 	DarkRift: looking at those, does that make more sense with what I'm trying to do?
[05:03:10] 	but it's really a bigger issue with user scripts
[05:03:19] 	since those are not as scarefully checked
[05:03:30] 	*carefully :)
[05:04:38] 	morgajel: try just using  instead of 
there [05:05:16] Vyznev: indeed - they are scarefully unchecked. [05:05:58] but it would be much nicer if you could do it all with JS, since the way you're doing it, users with no CSS support will see all the chordlookup() stuff embedded within the text [05:06:25] Vyznev: the problem is the
tag causes the same issue [05:08:14] Vyznev: ideally a simple display none or display inline should be enough without a lot of css voodoo [05:08:26] I'm not sure what would be required to get it to work in javascript [05:10:01] and due to the tabular nature of the chords (where alignment is critical), it makes sense to keep them in a table [05:11:25] without knowing just what chordlookup() does, I can't give details, but the basic idea would be just have the javascript code called by the mouseover handler create the popup elements [05:12:21] .innerHTML would work for that, or you could build it up node by node with document.createElement and document.createTextNode [05:12:23] hold on, lemme post that [05:13:50] http://pastebin.ca/1285704 [05:13:58] that has all 3 functions [05:14:06] the chords array is heavily truncated [05:14:11] but it's enough to give you an idea [05:15:04] 03(NEW) Add 'oga' and 'ogx' to $wgFileExtensions[] to complement ' ogv' - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16651 normal; normal; Wikimedia: Site requests; (krimpet) [05:18:10] ok, wife's saying time for bed [05:19:01] Vyznev: I'll catch up with you tomorrow hopefully [05:19:09] thanks again for the help [05:19:22] and feel free to msg me if you come up with a possible solution [06:49:35] 03(mod) Possibility to link to particular section of [[Special: Preferences]] - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16013 +comment (10beesley) [06:50:50] 03(mod) Possibility to link to particular section of [[Special: Preferences]] - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16013 (10beesley) [06:50:51] 14(DUP) linking to specific sections within preferences - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16650 +comment (10beesley) [07:01:39] TimStarling: are you going to release a 1.12 update too, and if so, how much time do I have to get the L10n backports in? [07:02:35] yes, 1.12, 1.13 and 1.6 [07:02:45] you have a couple of hours [07:04:09] the changes in 1.6 will be minimal [07:06:12] TimStarling: have to bring kids to school and get to work... Need at least 3 hours from now... Can I have those? [07:06:22] yes [07:06:51] I'll wait [07:07:03] thanks [07:09:08] Hi there, we are using mediawiki on your local wireless user group. But seeing some links are slow and sometimes some access points go down we would like to mirror your mediawiki, for redundancy. [07:09:27] Can someone maybe just point me in the right direction with a url or phrase I need to google? [07:09:35] this is not a channel for a wireless user group, it's the channel for the mediawiki software [07:09:54] if you're trying to contact the owner of a particular wiki, you're in the wrong place [07:10:38] yksinaisyyteni did you read my question? I want to know how to mirror the mediawiki software... [07:10:59] maybe Ludoza is just a bit confused about pronouns [07:11:44] TimStarling I do believe so, all that your needs to be our. [07:11:55] okay, that makes more sense [07:12:13] Ludoza: if you want a static mirror, the dumpHTML extension probably does what you want [07:12:53] and if I want the users to be able to edit a page on one mediawiki and let it roll over to the others? [07:13:05] that's not particularly possible [07:15:35] "not particularly possible" [07:17:06] there's a couple of wiki engines that run on top of git [07:17:10] that would probably work [07:17:23] not possible with MediaWiki though [07:17:38] the obvious solution is to not attempt to host things behind a wireless connection [07:17:54] if anyone should know how much wireless sucks, it's a wireless user group [07:18:10] So it will not be possible to run two databases in seperate locations while keeping them in sync? [07:18:16] I suppose one could do something like what Wikimedia does, setting up multiple servers with their own slave MySQL servers [07:18:26] you can't write to a slave server [07:18:36] but that would be like swatting a fly with a sledgehammer [07:18:37] a slave server would just be the same as a regular HTML dump [07:18:38] Vyznev: but those would be separate wikis, i don't think that's what he wants [07:18:44] and, as Tim notes, it wouldn't even really kill the fly [07:18:48] except that you'd have to run mediawiki on it and it would break because it couldn't write to its caches [07:20:39] So you guys are telling me when I do a edit on wikipedia in deep dark africa it goes to one master database and only after that get copied to the slave databases? [07:20:50] yes [07:20:59] 03tstarling * r44600 10/branches/ (13 files in 10 dirs): [07:20:59] * Fixed a couple of missing lines in 1.12 [07:20:59] * Added missing autoloader entry in 1.13 [07:21:00] * Prepared the 1.6 branch for release, with a cut-down version of the security fixes [07:21:00] * Rewrote the RELEASE-NOTES entry for all 3 branches [07:21:20] that's why it's so fast and reliable [07:21:23] *grin* that must be one monster master database.

[10:05:29] there's plenty to do [10:05:43] and it doesn't help when it takes 15 minutes to upload each tarball [10:07:09] we still support 1.6? [10:07:38] well, I'm releasing one, so yes [10:07:53] we haven't had a security vulnerability in it for a while, that's why there have been no releases since 2007 [10:08:27] i think most of them were API problems that didn't exist in 1.6, too [10:08:51] Angela says 1.6 is the most common MediaWiki version [10:09:17] MediaWiki LTS [10:10:19] 03(mod) Errors in centralnotice.js - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16641 (10apper) [10:16:25] i seem to recall that there was a way to specify styles for a table *column* in mediawiki... i can't find it any more. [10:16:31] how would you do that? [10:18:03] 10:08 < TimStarling> Angela says 1.6 is the most common MediaWiki version [10:18:05] wow. [10:18:25] I guess the 'new features' since then aren't that obvious if you don't know about them. [10:22:08] maybe a lot of people sticked with 1.6 because it supports PHP4 [10:22:33] I guess most of them since updated their PHP, but didn't thought on updating MW as well [10:23:04] Hey [10:23:45] Is thier an easy way to integrat cooliris (piclens) support into the mediawiki new files page? [10:25:47] If you dont know what cooliris is see http://www.cooliris.com/ [10:26:01] Its basically a virtual image wall. [10:27:09] Prom_cat: integrating means getting some kind of flash code into the page? [10:27:35] no [10:27:57] see http://developer.cooliris.com/?p=full [10:28:09] It uses media RSS [10:28:26] Cooliris is a browser add-on [10:31:01] so you want MW to offer a RSS feed? [10:34:15] Its a bit more compliacted than that [10:34:22] Read the developer page. [10:34:40] Im just looking for a quick easy way i can integrate it into mediawiki. [10:36:37] Prom_cat: well, i'm pretty sure you can write an extension to do it. if you'd consider that "simple" very much depends :) [10:37:03] *Prom_cat doesnt write extentions [10:37:11] *Prom_cat gives cookies to people who do :P [10:37:33] But yeah, I think that would be an awesome extension to have [10:38:01] *Prom_cat looks at werdnum and siebrand [10:38:09] what? [10:38:24] MediaWiki already has RSS feeds. [10:38:27] Wanna write the most awesome extension ever? [10:38:30] no [10:38:31] !rss [10:38:31] --mwbot-- Feed aggregator extensions: . Feed generator extensions: . [10:38:36] its more comple than that [10:38:47] Then what is it? [10:38:52] http://developer.cooliris.com/?p=full [10:38:55] Cooliris [10:39:07] Want to intergrate it into the NewFiles page [10:42:43] Prom_cat: well, for generating the feed, you'd write either a cusom special page or, perhaps better, an action handler. adding stuff the to html head isn't hard from an extension, even though it may be a bit non-obvious. [10:42:47] !extensions [10:42:47] --mwbot-- MediaWiki has been built so it can easily be customized by adding extensions. This is usually a simple process. See for instructions to install extensions, as well as for writing them. See for an overview of known extensions. [10:48:00] Ok, well, that doesnt appear to be the easy way i was looking for ;) [10:48:24] so im just gonna put that one on hold for now. [10:48:46] also, http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PicLens [10:48:53] Someone has already done that hard part [10:48:58] except it doesnt work right..... [10:49:09] oh yeah and its for the gallery tag [10:49:15] not the newfiles page. [12:30:40] hi all. lost in cryptic mw manual. simple question: can i include in a page an automatic table of links to pages that link to that page, without having to click on "what links here" ? [12:30:54] table/list/whatever [12:31:20] tryign to automatically relate a hierarchy of pages to each other, at lease (next/prev/up) etc [12:32:22] DynamicPageList might help [12:32:25] !dpl | Penggu [12:32:25] --mwbot-- Penggu: The DynamicPageList (DPL) extension outputs reports based on criteria given in a special tag. For more information, see and . [12:38:30] !hierarchy | Penggu [12:38:30] --mwbot-- Penggu: I don't know anything about "hierarchy". [12:38:33] bah [12:38:38] !e Hierarchy | Penggu [12:38:38] --mwbot-- Penggu: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Hierarchy [12:38:58] doing it with DPL would be a bit annyoping [12:40:16] ah wow. got dpl working [12:41:15] i wonder if there's a $thisPage type thing [12:42:57] {{PAGENAME}} [12:44:35] excelltent, thanks [12:44:57] i should stop asking questions now that im on a roll, and rtfm [12:45:06] much appreciated [12:45:19] *Penggu waves [13:05:42] that was quick. [13:05:58] did my nickname change? [13:06:08] yeah [13:06:38] I'd better disable that feature [13:07:00] When does it change? [13:07:18] when I disconnect [13:07:32] .. Don't you use X-Chat, and so there's no "disconnection"? [13:07:47] I got a VPS the other day [13:08:03] from some people called RapidXen [13:08:11] oh, those people I suggested. [13:08:16] yes [13:08:25] Brion's getting one too, but on a different provider. [13:08:38] All the cool kids are doing it.

[13:09:53] no, but I've got Angela's 5 websites running on it [13:10:13] i'm probably going to move my vps to my adsl line at some point [13:10:17] Well, that's a start. [13:10:41] plus mail forwarding and IRC proxy [13:13:49] I upgraded the two wordpress instances, wordpress is insecure, it's almost as bad as drupal [13:14:36] that reminds me, my rapidxen bill is due tomorrow. [13:15:15] it lets administrators edit PHP files [13:15:26] and it encourages them to set the permissions on those files to 777 [13:15:34] so that it can edit them [13:15:39] yeah, the skin files. [13:15:58] drupal stores PHP code in the database [13:16:26] so anyone who can read the settings file can run arbitrary scripts [13:16:34] any local user, I mean [13:16:39] in addition to XSS [13:19:39] out of all the cms's i tried on opensourcecms there was only one i could use/get used to [13:24:46] TimStarling what other opensource cms would you recommend one look at? [13:28:06] I wouldn't know [13:28:31] you mean other than MediaWiki? [13:33:59] hello, i need help. [13:34:02] Ludoza: tbh i quite liked website baker last time i used it [13:34:25] try having a look at www.opensourcecms.com/ for demos and such [13:34:58] !ask | akas [13:34:58] --mwbot-- akas: Don't say "I have a question", or ask "Is anyone around?" or "Can anyone help?". Just ask the question, and someone will help you if they can. Also, please read < http://workaround.org/moin/GettingHelpOnIrc > for a good explanation of getting help on IRC.

[13:38:49] akas: mwot is a bot, he doesn't care :) [13:39:13] akas: but i don't understand your question. what are you trying to do? [13:40:30] for example i have projects in a database. and i need for eyery project a wiki-site. how can i generate a wiki site with items from the db ? [13:40:41] u speak german duesentrieb ? [13:41:00] you mean a wiki *page* i assume [13:41:05] yes :) [13:41:18] yes i speak german, but if we switch to german, most other people can help you [13:41:25] that's bad in case i just wonder of. as i often do. [13:42:10] akas: there are several ways to do this. but the safest and, maybe, simples one is: write a little program in whatever language you like that generates an XML files that can be imported into mediawiki [13:42:26] the xml format is pretty simply [13:42:27] !export [13:42:27] --mwbot-- To export pages from a wiki, navigate to Special:Export on the wiki, type in the names of the pages to export, and hit "export". See for an example of this form. See also: !import [13:42:36] hm... not the link i wanted [13:42:38] !import [13:42:38] --mwbot-- To import pages a few pages, use Special:Import - you can also import pages directly from another wiki (see !importsources). For mass imports, use importDump.php - see for details. NOTE: when using content from another wiki, follow the LICENSE TERMS, especially, attribute source and authors! [13:43:00] that's good info for you, but not what i was looking for either [13:43:01] !xml [13:43:01] --mwbot-- I don't know anything about "xml".

[14:36:11] Wuzur: not that I'm aware, but it would be a cool extension. [14:36:11] (I share the user database so the user ids are not the problem) [14:36:15] *werdnum would use it.

[14:38:19] Wuzur: for individual pages, transwiki inclusion aka "scary inclusion" can be used. [14:38:33] *Wuzur looks [14:38:34] doeing this for an entire namespace would be much harder.

[16:23:51] it is up to you [16:23:57] upgrading should be painless [16:24:08] no reason you should not just do upgrade [16:24:36] you can just export it all, set up the new one and import it again, too, the base LocalSettings.php might have a couple of things that your old one didn't have [16:25:12] but you could just edit the sample from 1.13.2 to have the settings from your old one, too [16:26:21] lch, how to export it? [16:26:28] Special:Export [16:28:42] lch, what should input in the text area? [16:29:02] all the article names in your Wiki [16:29:25] well, upgrading might actually be easier [16:29:45] you should consider writing your LocalSettings.php from scratch again, though [16:29:52] i had a trauma with mediawiki [16:30:27] ok, thanks lch [16:50:32] how would I test something for being a null character in a template with the parserfunctions extension? [16:51:05] {{#if:{{{parameter|}}}|not null|null}} [16:51:30] the pipe in the parameter name is needed [16:52:12] doesn't work for me [16:52:21] I was trying to test for \0 [16:52:29] not empty [16:53:34] how is it being assigned to \0? direct user input? [16:53:54] sql extension [16:54:04] I'm querying BIT columns [16:54:20] those are being returned as \0 and \1 it seems [16:55:21] hmm [16:56:00] {{#ifeq:{{{parameter|}}|\0|null|not null}} maybe? [16:57:13] that's just a string comparison, and you can't use html entities in parser functions [16:57:29] yes and thats the problem... [16:57:37] lch: does it return the string \0 or \1? or the character? [16:58:01] hmm, you can use a in the textarea... [16:58:10] (although that might get converted to a space) [16:58:28] (a chr(1) that is) [16:58:38] dunno, make the extension not be stupid ^_^ [16:58:41] or pokle Tim [17:00:09] lch, null characters should never occur in wikitext, I'm quite certain. [17:00:22] Splarka, it returns the character [17:00:27] If something is inserting them there, I'm fairly sure it shouldn't be. [17:01:54] as I said, unfortunately MySQL returns BIT values as character data and not as ints [17:02:37] and I don't want to write a hundred convert statement [17:06:38] I guess I'll redesign the SQL tables... [17:07:23] hi Splarka [17:08:09] rar [17:29:39] yo Splarka [17:29:54] is there transaction roll back on the API? [17:29:58] *faceface_ hides [17:30:26] i.e. if I want to go in, and modify a bunch of pages and only 'commit' if everything was sucessfull... [17:30:48] only per-request, using the hash thingy [17:30:55] OK [17:31:26] I don't know if that is even possible... [17:31:33] hehe [17:31:43] ask Roan to make a 'dummy success' mode maybe [17:31:45] its a pretty high level 'database' function (which is why I hid) [17:32:10] like &action=edit&foo=bar&etc&testonly=true [17:32:16] (but with a better name) [17:32:33] then you could have your script submit all parts of the commit before actually committing [17:32:42] my idea is 'getTransaction ... do stuff... if no errors... commit' [17:32:50] though it wouldn't be perfect... some things you can't test without actually saving [17:32:50] I see [17:33:23] I suppose you can just set a time stamp, then check if everything is working, or roll back to that time [17:34:48] morrrrning everybody [17:35:14] hi brion [17:35:19] hey brion, you're an iPhone fanboy user right? [17:35:56] *rainman-sr gently pokes into the direction of missing rsyncd on srv56 [17:36:35] YOU CAN'T STOP OUR LOVE! [17:36:40] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:Common.css#iPhone_compatibility [17:36:42] *brion clings to his iphone [17:37:18] he's been kicked around from Talk:Main_Page to WP:VP/T, to that page [17:38:13] but is the device's own fault.. "Mommy, I'm a big browser now, I don't need to use media='sippycup'" "Okay dear, I'll serve you a full page" "Arrr, too big mommy, cut it up in portions for me first" [17:38:21] let's stick it in bugzilla to track it. i'll test it and post screenshots [17:39:03] do you get that problem he describes? [17:39:16] sounds vaguely familiar. will have to take a look in more detail [18:05:02] Splarka: that's perfect, thanks a lot [18:09:42] faceface_: I guess it would be possible to implement somehow, but you could probably get away with doing one edit at a time and go back and rollback stuff if something fails [18:09:56] The time between the edit and the rollback will probably be negligible [18:10:36] But it could spam histories and RC, so you don't wanna do that for things that fail often [18:12:11] hmm, what about a self-bot rollback? [18:12:30] that is, allow people to roll themselves back with &bot=1 to at least not spam recent changes [18:13:58] brion-away: Can I get your red/green light on bug 13209? In short, the question is whether it's acceptable to allow a client to pull 50 diffs at once (or even 500 if they have the apihighlimits right) [18:14:15] *brion looks [18:15:49] well considering they can already do the queries one GET at a time...

[19:12:46] To be clear: I'm not opposing diffs in the API, I just wanna get Brion's OK before I implement it [19:12:55] right [19:13:22] what will it be? an action= or list= or prop=?

Just wanted to say thanks for a painless upgrade today. I appreciate the security advisory, and the upgrade process was pretty darn easy. Thanks for all of you who keep this project moving and updated! [19:15:52] Roan: anyway, if you could make an optional prop parameter, with like text|length|lines default, that'd be awesome (just length maybe as in byte/character size of the diff html, since lines would require parsing it a bit) [19:17:09] as for intent, I think the anti-vandalism bots would like to use it rather than scraping &oldid&diff in the UI [19:20:58] whats the url for the mediawiki class reference ?
