[04:19:11] I wanna use Extention:Intersection my wiki, but when I try to put codes on localsettings. these error occurd [04:20:09] He gets a white page.

[04:29:03] why? [04:29:49] because that's what I'd do :) [04:29:53] it shouldn't do that [04:29:57] yah [04:29:58] so maybe the problem has been fixed [04:30:09] i have customized my skin [04:30:17] ok, so then you broke something probably [04:30:19] is this is a problem?

[04:30:42] and put page title on main [04:30:57] we normally recommend you don't do that - instead you should edit the system messages in the wiki [04:30:58] yah [04:31:14] how/ [04:31:30] yeah i do that with edit in modern.js [04:31:38] MediaWiki:Common.css is css that gets served to everyone for example [04:31:41] !skin [04:31:41] --mwbot-- Overview: .

[04:39:41] yes [04:39:48] its not there [04:40:08] you should probably have it [04:40:20] it can't use a function in that file if the file doesn't exist [04:40:30] which I guess is what it's whining about [04:40:59] any specific line?

[06:53:05] InternalParseBeforeLinks [06:53:12] Why is it that if you have English as your language you still get everything in RTL on RTL wikis? [06:53:28] there's nothing between the preprocessor and the HTML security pass [06:53:32] Shouldn't everything be switched to LTR if your language is set to LTR and vice versa [06:53:32] ? [06:53:34] maybe we should add one there [06:53:45] Mike: because all content and design is designed around RTL on an RTL, probably [06:53:57] and is InternalParseBeforeLinks thrown before templates are expanded? [06:54:08] but there is an open bug (or should be) for an &dir=ltr/rtl overrride param [06:54:09] it's because the content language is RTL [06:54:22] which, one would think, is the important thing [06:55:04] I-MOD: check $text in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks/InternalParseBeforeLinks it should hold what you need (should it?) [06:55:09] I-MOD: Splarka asked me what's the next hook *after* the preprocessor [06:55:17] you want a hook before the preprocessor [06:55:38] I think he wanted during, but after sounded closest for "i'm doing context sensitive variable replacement" [06:55:55] I would think that the content should be in whichever orientation it is, but the interface should be whichever orientation your language is. [06:56:23] on hewiki for example, I should get LTR interface with RTL content [06:56:36] Mike_lifeguard: that's nice [06:56:56] Splarka: during? [06:56:59] I-MOD: be sure to listen to Tim though, since he wrote it [06:57:05] heh [06:57:06] ok [06:57:34] what sort of during?

[07:13:53] yeah [07:13:55] :D [07:14:05] yeah [07:14:26] you seem to have introduced a whole new concept of section number which doesn't correspond to anything [07:14:57] the one I introduced is supposed to be the same as what is generated in the TOC [07:15:04] it's not though [07:15:08] no?

[07:15:57] no [07:16:25] well, if you didn't, it's unlikely to be the same, and if you did, it's a waste of space [07:16:40] i agree [07:17:22] i'll have to think of a better way to do this [07:18:17] why did you bother adding magic words? are they meant to do something? [07:18:48] oh I see [07:18:53] + case 'sectionnumber': [07:18:53] + return '{{sectionnumber}}'; [07:18:54] cute [07:19:01] :D [07:19:06] since i'm parsing it out later [07:19:09] i know [07:19:26] it's bad [07:19:34] *I-MOD headdesks [07:19:59] if it's not a magic word, it gets parsed as a template, right? [07:20:04] it'd be interesting to uncover those [07:21:09] unfortunately, I don't understand the parser as fully as I'd like [07:22:03] you shouldn't use double braces as a main-pass special value [07:22:20] you should use HTML comments or strip markers [07:22:53] otherwise it will be possible to create them in all sorts of fun ways, like {{open}}sectionnumber{{close}} [07:24:04] *sigh* [07:24:59] so are you looking to implement this functionality as an extension, instead of a patch? [07:25:54] first of all, is your application looking for the section numbers used in edit section links, or the ones in the TOC? [07:25:59] that's important [07:26:21] the patch attempts to implement those in the TOC [07:26:44] I also want to add a different variable to provide section numbers as used in the edit section links [07:27:24] right now, i'm focusing on the numbers in the edit section links [07:27:33] which is why i need the pre-expansion text [07:28:26] ah [07:28:30] actually you don't [07:28:37] no? [07:28:46] *I-MOD 's mind explodes [07:28:58] the edit section links aren't added until formatHeadings(), which is after template expansion [07:29:11] how do you think formatHeadings() knows what the section numbers are? [07:29:50] touche [07:30:16] the answer is that preprocessor expansion adds markers [07:30:28] $this->parser->mHeadings[] = array( $titleText, $bits['i'] ); [07:30:28] $serial = count( $this->parser->mHeadings ) - 1; [07:30:28] $marker = "{$this->parser->mUniqPrefix}-h-$serial-" . Parser::MARKER_SUFFIX; [07:31:00] where $bits[i] is the section number and $titleText is the name of the template [07:31:41] this is in PPFrame_Hash::expand() and PPFrame_DOM::expand() [07:32:00] yeah, that's where I was starting to look [07:32:53] you could have your heading number variable add a similar marker [07:33:15] which would then be expanded in the main pass with the value of the current section [07:33:26] which you could determine by looking at the section markers [07:37:13] man, my brain is fried [07:38:11] it's 0130 here [07:40:24] i'll take a look at this tomorrow when i've had a chance to reset [07:40:35] thanks for all the input/insight TimStarling [07:40:41] but it *is* tomorrow. HAH. [07:40:47] true [07:41:02] *Supaplex watches I-MOD's brain ooze out of his ears like unset jello [07:41:10] hehe :) [07:41:13] *I-MOD takes a lick [07:41:17] mmmm....fruity [07:42:59] ok, good night [08:44:29] Hello all [08:44:35] Can I ask an incredibly stupid question?

[08:45:58] What is the right way to get the Wikipedia-style auto-numbered references? [08:46:38] Adding the [URL] creates the [1] link, that's fine.

[08:47:47] It makes the table of contents automagically - I assumed it would do the same for refs. [08:51:12] you know what they say about when you 'assume' anything, you make an ass out of you, and Montenegro [08:52:49] Splarka has a thing against people that sketch the faces of the dead? [08:53:02] Cite is in the "maybe" column of extensions to be merged to core [08:53:32] Cite is pretty helpful. [08:53:34] Though the entire ref system blows.

[09:26:04] The issue is this: If you do something like [[{{{1}}}]] in a template, then it's not possible for a user to input |SomenameCitation for that name [09:26:23] Because the ref tag breaks any sort of link, annotation, or whatever [09:26:54] {{#tag:ref| }} ? [09:27:42] huh?

[11:55:30] FlaggedRevs? [11:55:41] Mr-Fine, bots aren't extensions [11:55:48] ok [11:55:56] but how can we create them? [11:55:57] No, bots are (by definition) not extensions [11:56:14] You can write a program in any language which interfaces with the wiki in whatever way you want. [11:56:30] It might be helpful to tell us what you want the bot to do, or ask in #wikipedia-en-bag or something [11:57:10] pywikipediabot is a python bot library which you may find useful.

[15:54:25] rjune, you can do [[Image:Foo.png|link=mypage]] in recent MW versions. [15:54:33] Not sure if that's in 1.13, but it's certainly in 1.14. [15:58:49] Are there some wiki tag that is "show this line in entire form only, not cut it"? [15:59:16] timofonic, start the line with a space? [15:59:17]
?
[16:00:12] 	Simetrical: Not exactly, but something like certain text showed entirely and not cut it, so show it in the next line if not fits in the current line
[16:00:45] 	What do you mean "cut it"?
[16:01:22] 	Simetrical: A piece of text, not showing a part of it in the next line but in it's entire form in one of the lines
[16:01:44] 	You mean it shouldn't break lines?
[16:01:59] 	Simetrical: appears to not be in 13, I'll look at upgrading to .14
[16:02:21] 	Simetrical: Yes, show it in the next line if not fits in the current one. It's just a small piece of text I want to show it in entire form without line breaking
[16:02:37] 	Simetrical: Like a math formula or certain expression...
[16:03:06] 	Simetrical: Breaking the line could make the meaning different or confussing
[16:04:54] 	rjune, 1.14 isn't released yet, I don't think.  It should be usable, though.
[16:04:55] 	Simetrical: This is what I mean http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-breaking_space

[18:16:05] 	argg
[18:16:12] 	can someone tell me if they can see legalintellects.com
[18:18:06] 	Yes.
[18:18:12] 	ok..
[18:18:15] 	im ready to lose my mind
[18:18:20] 	i keep losing the DNS
[18:18:36] 	its like... unpropagating
[18:24:01] 	It shows up for me on two out of four computers I try it on in different parts of the world.
[18:24:21] 	50%
[18:24:23] 	weird right?
[18:24:24] 	after 12 days
[18:24:50] 	The ones in New York and Texas gave the info back.  One in Amsterdam gave an empty answer, and one someplace I'm not sure of timed out.
[18:25:57] 	The one I don't know about is in Seattle, Washington.
[18:26:37] 	So it works for me in Dallas (or maybe it's Austin?) but not Seattle.
[18:26:52] 	Interesting.
[18:27:58] 	it works where i am... only half the time
[18:28:25] 	what do you think would be the least sloppy way to add sitemeter code to my wiki?
[18:28:48] 	JonnyK- legalintellects.com's nameservers are listed as ns1.probook.ca and ns2.probook.ca. Those two nameservers are also supposed to be serving their own names, but when they're actually queried ns1 (208.110.68.202 according to the glue from .ca) returns NXDOMAIN and ns2 (208.110.68.203) doesn't respond.
[18:29:07] 	Works in Michigan
[18:29:21] 	oh... so i should be making ns1 and ns2  .legalintellects.com i guess
[18:29:48] 	dang
[18:29:55] 	JonnyK- well, if you're going to have ns1.probook.ca as the nameserver for probook.ca, it should actually answer for ns1.probook.ca
[18:30:26] 	My wiki always shows the same wrong IP address of the users. How does mediawiki determine the IP? Does anyone know how to fix that?
[18:30:38] 	hmmm... this is a little over my head. how do I fix this problem?
[18:31:02] 	i'm using directadmin
[18:31:08] 	i think i can make ns1.legalintellects.com and ns2
[18:31:16] 	but I only have 1 IP
[18:31:26] 	eeek
[18:31:28] 	is that bad?
[18:31:30] 	do you run probook.ca, or does someone do that for you?
[18:31:36] 	I run it
[18:31:39] 	but it was setup for me
[18:31:41] 	actually, the problem is probook.ca is missing glue records for its nameservers
[18:31:46] 	I have root
[18:31:50] 	i could fix anything...
[18:31:54] 	I just wouldn't know how
[18:32:03] 	the resolver can't even talk to ns[12].probook.ca because it doesn't know their addresses
[18:32:16] 	ok...
[18:32:31] 	how do I tell it? and, can I keep legalintellects.com on those NS's too?
[18:32:36] 	you need to contact the registrar to get it fixed (mention "missing glue" and they'll know what you mean)
[18:32:45] 	well, s/registrar/operator of probook.ca/
[18:32:45] 	godaddy I guess
[18:32:56] 	well.. I operate the server
[18:33:07] 	i dont have a sysadmin or any support from the host
[18:33:09] 	do you also run the domain probook.ca?
[18:33:12] 	yea
[18:33:19] 	then contact the registrar of that domain
[18:33:20] 	its all in my directadmin
[18:33:24] 	(not the one you're having problems with)
[18:33:39] 	so i contact godaddy and tell them Probook.ca needs glue?
[18:33:58] 	you want glue records added for your nameservers, ns1.probook.ca and ns2.probook.ca
[18:34:08] 	and that will fix legalintellects too?
[18:34:18] 	yksinaisyyteni- I get glue when I query the .ca nameservers: http://rafb.net/p/86e51f68.html
[18:34:34] 	anomie: i didn't.  that would explain why it only works sometimes
[18:34:55] 	so... i need MORE glue? :)
[18:35:57] 	ah, but the namserver is broken too
[18:36:00] 	hmmm
[18:36:03] 	broken?
[18:36:49] 	how do I fix a broken nameserver?
[18:38:01] 	JonnyK- Set up your nameserver at ns1.probook.ca to answer for ns1.probook.ca. And fix ns2.probook.ca while you're at it.
[18:38:01] 	yksinaisyyteni: by the way, I couldn't figure out that compile error in that native parsery thing, so I reverted to the latest revision that compiled.
[18:38:48] 	hmm. i have no experience with nameservers. anything more specific or should I find a tutorial?
[18:39:11] 	directadmin just lets me build ns1 and ns2 .probook.ca with a button
[18:39:17] 	and then i can point the domains to it
[18:39:20] 	it doesnt seem to get more involved
[18:40:13] 	this is terrible timing. I'm handing out my law resumes, and the site's listed on it
[18:41:01] 	JonnyK- You got it to answer correctly for legalintellects.com, can you just add another line or whatever to make it answer for ns1.probook.ca too?
[18:42:25] 	I don't even know what that means :( whatever I did, directadmin did automatically

[18:52:38] 	yikes
[18:53:02] 	i guess there's no way to know until it propagates or something?
[18:53:08] 	i think i created ns1.probok.ca
[18:53:10] 	probook.ca
[18:54:31] 	JonnyK- ns1.probook.ca is still claiming NXDOMAIN for ns1.probook.ca. You have it answering for probook.ca, i didn't check that earlier so I don't know if that's a change or not.
[18:55:03] 	NXDOMAIN is wrong?
[18:55:34] 	probook.ca is using ns[12].probook.ca and it works fine

[19:28:18] 	would it change it on WP than?

[19:54:27] 	is there any tool to show the number of daily edits for specific wiki?

[20:06:38] 	Can someone check these errors on my site; www.wikibond.org
[20:07:12] 	I have an new server and i loaded up the backup and everything is the same, but there is that error. I dont know what to change.

[20:10:17] 	ahh
[20:10:29] 	Dont know much about it.. But before the new server it wasnt like this :P
[20:11:38] 	maybe you need to CHMOD some thingsd
[20:11:46] 	did you follow an install tutorial?
[20:12:01] 	have you got remote desktop?
[20:12:09] 	No
[20:12:27] 	I have followed an install tutorial in the beginning 2 years ago..
[20:12:40] 	you probably just need to get the security on the folders right for the new server
[20:12:42] 	But must you reinstall it then?
[20:12:48] 	shouldnt need to
[20:12:55] 	uhu
[20:13:11] 	hmmz
[20:14:42] 	But the path of the server to webstart is: /domains/wikibond.org/public_html/nl/wikibond/includes/WebStart.php and he says he cant find it there: 'C:\wwwroot\www\wikibond.org/includes/WebStart.php' 
[20:14:52] 	Is that maybe not right?
[20:15:18] 	or is C:\wwwroot\www\ an standaard path?
[20:42:01] 	Creating "MediaWiki:group-emailconfirmed" and "MediaWiki:group-emailconfirmed-member" solved that problem. But I still don't understand why no users shows up in the group?
[20:44:26] 	what extension do I need to make  tags work?
