all the time - am I missing some setting or something? [00:08:59] wikicode is a mix of html and a word processor [00:09:21] Trunks9809, single newlines do nothing. Double newlines start a new paragraph. [00:09:22] in html, newlines are generally ignored (barring
 and white-space:nowrap/pre)
[00:09:38] 	so wikicode works the same way, use two for... what he said
[00:09:38] 	Single newlines only do something if they terminate a list item or similar, or in preformatted text.
[00:09:55] *Splarka 	bops
[00:11:41] 	aha, preformatting works for what I'm looking for - thanks guys :)

New Title
[00:51:04] would that work for changing the page title? [00:52:06] Splarka, could you have a look? http://grey.colorado.edu/emergent/index.php/Test [00:54:52] [00:54:58] it doesn't [00:55:01] what am I looking at? that isn't a pagename subst [00:55:21] it's not??? they are syntactically identical.. [00:56:00] Majorly i have some code to hide it, which might give you a tip as to changing it [00:56:20] 03simetrical * r45109 10/trunk/phase3/ (3 files in 3 dirs): [00:56:20] Prepend x to section ids not starting with [a-z] [00:56:20] This will break any preexisting links to such sections (other than [00:56:20] those generated by the software, of course). There should be no parser [00:56:20] test regressions. [00:56:27] aib, eh [00:56:27] well, you asked about {{subst:PageName}},. not subst:sometemplate [00:56:27] majorly, css to hide: body.page-Main_Page h1.firstHeading { display:none; } [00:56:38] Simetrical: that's stupid solution [00:56:40] aib, i'm thinking of the title [00:56:45] as in [00:56:53] <aib> ahh [00:56:57] <Simetrical> Danny_B, why? [00:57:24] <aib> splarka, the page contains a template. at any rate, the docs don't show a distinction [00:57:35] <aib> BugzillaReports-1 is not a template ,but it contains one [00:58:11] <Splarka> well, subst is only one level deep [00:58:11] <Danny_B> 1) you've created two anchors for the same place [00:58:19] <Simetrical> Danny_B, what? [00:58:56] <Majorly> aib, doesn't work anyway [00:58:58] <Splarka> aib: well, there is no such Template:BugzillaReports-1, so obviously it fails [00:59:07] <Simetrical> If you're suggesting that "1" and "x1" will now be given the same id, they won't. [00:59:13] <Splarka> expected behavior for subst:somethingthatdoesn'texist [00:59:34] <aib> Splarka, the *article* BugzillaReports-1 exists [00:59:53] <Splarka> aib: well, you're not referencing that [00:59:54] <aib> majorly, you can do it with javascript easily no? [01:00:02] <Splarka> you're asking it to subst Template:BugzillaReports-1 [01:00:09] <aib> ahh, but this doesn't make a clear distinction [01:00:12] <Majorly> i'm technically incompetent :-) [01:00:13] <aib> "For the discussion of substitution, an "ordinary template" is any page included by {{subst:pagename }} for pages in the template namespace or {{subst:fullpagename }} for pages in other namespaces. It's also possible to substitute variables and parser functions collectively known as "predefined templates"." [01:00:24] <aib> from Help:Substitution [01:00:30] <Splarka> {{Foo}} -> Template:Foo -- {{Template:Foo}} -> Template:Foo [01:00:43] <Splarka> fine, don't believe me, good luck with that [01:00:56] <aib> i believe you, just saying that I RTFM and it confused me:) [01:01:06] <Splarka> subst:User:Foo would be User:Foo [01:01:10] <Splarka> User:Foo is the full page name [01:03:05] <aib> Majorly you only want to change it once, or many times according to a rule? [01:03:18] <Majorly> just once... [01:03:42] <Danny_B> Simetrical: forget about 1) ;-) i've been reading badly. sorry about that one. however - why the parser test has different behavior than the wiki has? [01:03:55] <Simetrical> Danny_B, in what way? [01:04:09] <Danny_B> does the wiki currently prepend x? [01:05:37] <Simetrical> Danny_B, now it does, yes. [01:05:58] <Danny_B> well then you've broken millions of links [01:06:18] <Simetrical> Only section links. [01:06:22] <Simetrical> Those are unstable anyway in most cases. [01:06:30] <aib> majorly something similar to this in MediaWiki:Common.js: function changeTitle(title) { document.title = title; };if (document.title == "TitleYouDontLike") { changeTitle("new title")}; [01:06:30] <Simetrical> You'll still get to the right page. [01:06:49] <Simetrical> And "millions" strikes me as a fairly dramatic exaggeration. [01:06:52] <Danny_B> yes only section links; no i don't agree with them being unstable [01:07:21] <Danny_B> besides you made anchor names now nonintuitive [01:07:25] <Simetrical> They can be changed at any time. We don't have any mechanism for section redirects or whatever. It's not a big deal, at most you'll end up on the wrong part of the page. [01:07:26] <Simetrical> . . . [01:07:44] <Simetrical> So what do you want, then? They can't start with letters but they have to be intuitive? [01:07:58] <Danny_B> yes, so you've created worse solution than the one which was working correctly [01:08:13] <Majorly> aib, no luck [01:08:18] <Simetrical> The existing solution was wrong, or at the very least not best practices. [01:08:38] <Simetrical> Anchor links are already completely unintuitive for most languages anyway. [01:08:40] <Danny_B> as i wrote in maillist - what is the necessity of creating other solution than the current working one? [01:09:16] <Simetrical> Because 1) I don't think the existing one was right to begin with, 2) it's not good practice to have <a name=""> without id. [01:09:35] <Danny_B> who said that? [01:09:54] <Danny_B> anchor links were intuitive - they worked. the only issue was in case of the same headers on the page where you had to append the number [01:10:41] <Simetrical> And if you used any non-ASCII characters you were completely screwed. [01:10:48] <Simetrical> Slight detail there. [01:10:53] <Danny_B> nope [01:10:54] <Simetrical> Or any kind of markup. [01:10:56] <Danny_B> i was not [01:11:22] <Danny_B> it got converted and the anchor worked properly [01:11:24] <aib> Majorly it works [01:11:32] <Simetrical> It still gets converted and the anchor still works properly. [01:11:39] <Majorly> aib, not for me [01:11:48] <Danny_B> i could have written foo#ěščřž and i got to the section ěščřž [01:11:49] <Simetrical> It's just not intuitive, there's an extra rule if you want to manually construct them. [01:11:51] <aib> Majorly, the TitleYouDontLike for the Main Page of my wiki was "Main Page - Emergent" which is "Main Page - YourWikiName" [01:11:58] <Simetrical> Danny_B, um, really? In what browser? [01:12:00] <aib> also, you have to refresh to get the new javascript [01:12:04] <Majorly> aib, ok [01:12:06] <Simetrical> I wasn't aware our .xx thing was actually standard. [01:12:19] <Danny_B> firefox [01:12:39] <Simetrical> Danny_B, doesn't work for me. [01:12:45] <aib> majorly open firefox, go to the page and type in the firefox address bar "javascript:alert(document.title)" [01:12:47] <Simetrical> Oh, well, now it doesn't. [01:12:47] <Simetrical> Sec. [01:12:59] <Simetrical> No, doesn't work for me regardless of whether I prepend "x". [01:13:00] <Danny_B> it always worked for me [01:13:19] <Danny_B> on every wiki [01:13:24] <Simetrical> Doesn't work for me, can't help it. [01:13:26] <Majorly> aib, got it. Thanks [01:13:41] <Danny_B> the you should ask others [01:13:46] <Majorly> now I need to remove the header on the page :) [01:13:56] <Majorly> or change it at least [01:14:25] <Simetrical> At this point I'd be perfectly willing to say to hell with the standards and just put the raw strings in as id's, if that works properly in browsers. [01:14:43] <aib> what do you mean the header [01:14:48] <Simetrical> This is all a ludicrous amount of brainpower being wasted on a trivial issue that no one should legitimately care about. [01:15:26] <Danny_B> the previous solution worked properly. it was valid. it was legal. it was intuitive. so why the hack we have to change it to much worse solution which breaks millions of links and will cause headaches to whoever will want to create the anchor link? [01:15:43] <Majorly> the actual title on the page itself [01:15:56] <Simetrical> I don't think it was valid or legal, and it *definitely* wasn't best practices. [01:16:05] <aib> Simetrical, [[Color of the bikeshed]] :) [01:16:14] <Danny_B> it WAS valid [01:16:25] <Simetrical> I don't agree and still don't no matter how many times you claim that as undisputed fact. [01:17:05] <Danny_B> well, validator is on my side, not on yours ;-) [01:17:12] <aib> Majorly, it's a bit more complicated because there is no getElementByClass in javascript [01:17:15] <Simetrical> We've been through this and I'm not repeating everything again. [01:17:32] <Simetrical> If you have nothing new to add, this is the last line I'm saying here on this. [01:17:33] <Danny_B> i agree - idk why you guys were wasting time on finding of other solutions than the one which was used for ages and worked properly and reliably [01:18:07] <Danny_B> i'm going to revert your changes because they are massively breaking the functionality [01:18:19] <Simetrical> Brion suggested I do it. [01:18:26] <Simetrical> They're not "massively breaking" anything. [01:18:31] <Danny_B> where, when? [01:18:33] <aib> Majorly, I suggest you use the css I posted earlier to hide it, and then use a = Header = at the top of the page [01:18:35] <Simetrical> On Wikitech-l. [01:18:39] <Danny_B> they are breaking all anchor links [01:18:53] <Simetrical> Maybe we should just fix the normalization function the way we'd already [01:18:53] <Simetrical> planned to, so that it'll work right the way we'd already planned to? [01:19:08] <Danny_B> so far i remember, he was talking about pending discussion [01:19:18] <Majorly> aib, but it's possible, because it's done on the English wikipedia main page [01:19:19] <Simetrical> So fine, revert it, whatever. [01:19:50] <aib> Majorly, I believe I am using the en wp's css to hide it [01:21:14] <Danny_B> if you want to prepend the "x" then create some redirection algorithm which will allow people to write the anchors without that [01:21:39] <Splarka> aib: (had to get the phone)... to transclude main namespace pages, you do something like {{:foo}} for [[foo]]. This lets the template expansion find the correct page. Guess what you do with subst to disabiguate between [[Template:Foo]] {{subst:foo}} and [[Foo]] ...

You'd need an onhashchange event or something. [01:21:49] <Splarka> Majorly: they have 1.14 [01:22:01] <Simetrical> This entire situation is ridiculous, id's should be able to accept arbitrary UTF-8. [01:22:01] <Majorly> it's been like that for ages though [01:22:32] <Simetrical> As it is, any non-Latin wiki will have complete gibberish for all its ids. [01:22:48] <aib> Splarka, {{:BugzillaReports-1}} [01:22:48] <Majorly> I'd also like for the main page to have the "last modified" text removed from it [01:22:52] <aib> thank you:) [01:23:04] <Splarka> aib: right, so now how would you subst: that [01:23:47] <Splarka> Simetrical: setInterval checking document.location.hash? (joke) [01:24:40] <aib> yay, {{subst::BugzillaReports-1}} [01:24:43] <aib> :p [01:25:11] <Danny_B> any non latin wiki have no ids at all, they have only <a name> because it allows to begin with dot which is there as the part of encoded string [01:26:07] <Danny_B> i should have said "did not have" - now they do because of that massively invalidating change [01:28:04] <Splarka> Majorly: http://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Pagetitle&diff=42027&oldid=23940 should work even in 1.13, as said before [01:29:06] <Majorly> Splarka, I got a different solution already [01:29:35] <aib> Majorly, javascript:function hideLastModified(){document.getElementById("lastmod").style.display="none";} hideLastModified() [01:29:39] <aib> sigh, beaten! [01:29:51] <Majorly> nope [01:29:53] <Majorly> that's good [01:30:05] <Majorly> I still really need the header hiding though [01:30:09] <Majorly> still can't find that one our [01:30:11] <Majorly> out& [01:30:14] <Splarka> well that's silly [01:30:23] <Splarka> body.page-Main_Page #lastmod {display:none;} [01:30:37] <Majorly> lol [01:30:40] <aib> right:) [01:30:41] <Majorly> seems so simple [01:30:50] <Splarka> you need javascript for the <title> though [01:30:54] <Splarka> or parserfunctions [01:31:06] <Majorly> no not for <title> [01:31:08] <Splarka> for the header: [01:31:10] <Majorly> for the page header [01:31:13] <Splarka> body.page-Main_Page .firstHeading {display:none;} [01:31:31] <Majorly> ok [01:31:35] <Splarka> you might also wanna hide #siteSub and #contentSub [01:33:10] <Majorly> body.page-Main_Page #lastmod {display:none;} is css right? [01:33:13] <Majorly> it doesn't work [01:33:14] <Splarka> http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mainpage [01:33:27] <Majorly> oh nvm [01:33:35] <Splarka> yes, MediaWiki:Common.css or Skinname.css [01:33:37] <mati|mcabber> I was suggesting that particular CSS-hack an hour ago ;-) [01:33:44] <Splarka> it does, but not if you do it wrong ^_^ [01:33:46] <Splarka> mati|mcabber: goldfish memory [01:33:56] <mati|mcabber> hehe [01:34:04] <Splarka> you have to repeat it until they do it in less than 3 seconds [01:34:18] <Splarka> per the above URL: [01:34:18] <Splarka> <h3 id="siteSub">From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3> [01:34:27] <Splarka> <div id="contentSub">  (Redirected from <a href="/w/index.php?title=Mainpage&redirect=no" title="Mainpage">Mainpage</a>)</div> [01:34:35] <Splarka> those appear just below .firstHeadinf [01:34:38] <aib> Splarka do you use FireBug?

[04:29:35] <Majorly> it only works if I set the chmod to 704 [04:29:40] <Charitwo> unless you have access to the fileserver, no [04:29:41] <Majorly> which means everyone can read it [04:30:16] <Charitwo> you should have a copy on your box to modify, then upload as needed when you make changes for things like extensions and configuration [04:30:44] <Majorly> oh... [04:32:18] <BentFrank> Using mysqldump to back up my wiki, I run it as -u wikiuser (with password). It says wikiuser can't use LOCK TABLES (a default in mysqldump).

[09:04:01] <unpaidbill> basically i want to create a subdirectory.. 'randomimages' and have it grab a random image from there [09:04:13] <Marybelle> You could probably write a JS thing. [09:04:15] <unpaidbill> i guess i could write it myself [09:04:16] <unpaidbill> yeah [09:04:24] <Marybelle> Or use APIForeignRepo to pull images from Wikimedia Commons. [09:04:30] <Marybelle> That's probably easier. [09:04:32] <unpaidbill> i see randomimage addon, but it requires you to actually add the image to the database [09:05:01] <unpaidbill> i guess i'll just make the extension myself [09:05:11] <unpaidbill> i suppose i should learn how to make one anyway.. [09:05:18] <Marybelle> Right. But if you integrate a foreign repo, you can link like you normally would but it will just pull the images from the other database... [09:05:29] <unpaidbill> well there is no database [09:05:42] <unpaidbill> basically i have a ton of images in a directory [09:05:49] <Marybelle> Oh, ahh. [09:06:06] <unpaidbill> calvin and hobbes comics. i am going to make it display a daily comic in my administrator wiki [09:06:13] <unpaidbill> reminds me of the good old days! [09:06:29] <Marybelle> :-) [09:07:24] <unpaidbill> i just started using mediawiki last week [09:07:30] <unpaidbill> i have to say, i cant believe how long i went without it [09:07:38] <unpaidbill> such a perfect tool for doing server documentation [09:07:51] <Marybelle> Had you used other wikis previously? [09:07:55] <unpaidbill> nope [09:08:13] <unpaidbill> the only exposure i had was to wikipedia, but i only searched that, never got into the contributer side of it [09:08:21] <unpaidbill> it took me about 10 minutes to fall in love [09:08:27] <Marybelle> :-) [09:09:51] <Charitwo> Marybelle new irc nick is disturbing [09:09:52] <unpaidbill> the only thing i wish mediawiki had was a slightly more refined authentication and permissions system, but it isnt designed for that i suppose. not allowing anonymous users to view articles is good enough anyway [09:10:02] <Marybelle> Charitwo: You're disturbing. [09:10:13] <Charitwo> no u [09:10:23] <unpaidbill> marybelle == big fat furry who dresses as a cow? [09:10:26] <unpaidbill> that's hot?
