[00:00:58] Hm, but when I use Mediawiki namespace for configuration, I wondered if I could say Mediawiki to treat my configuration files like e.g. Common.css, so give them out in
 tags and do *not* interpret them as wiki markup

[00:45:38] <^demon>	Sylvanus: Because they're CSS and Javascript and preserving whitespace is usually preferred.

[00:48:04] 	Splarka:  ah, thanks
[00:48:18] 	this is quite hidden ;-)
[00:48:26] 	so you can't use that hook to extend it
[00:48:26] 	03aaron * r47775 10/trunk/phase3/includes/ (Category.php Title.php): Whitespace :)

[00:51:22] 	I doubt that saving extension configuration in a mediawiki file is really intelligent -- it has to be parsed every time the extension is called (special page extension). Or is there an easy option to use mediawikis caching system?
[00:52:52] *Splarka 	dunno about that, looks blond
[00:53:03] 	hm
[00:53:18] 	nevertheless saving such configuration data in a PHP file would be much more perfomant
[00:53:31] 	even if it's not that confortable for administrators
[00:54:09] 	make a Special: page to read/write that, be careful of code injection ^_^
[00:55:06] 	read what? I would never parse a config file in Mediawiki namespace as PHP
[00:56:06] 	I've thought of something like http://biokemika.svenk.homeip.net/index.php/MediaWiki:Ms-databases -- parsing of that page can be done in one line PHP

[01:06:54] 	Sylvanus: no, I mean a Special: page that read/writes a file, not a page in the DB or any mw namespace
[01:06:59] 	(several extensions do that)
[01:07:29] 	erhm
[01:07:41] 	I thought an extension can do everything Mediawiki can.
[01:07:52] 	so it should have access to the db, too
[01:08:03] 	 I thought an extension can do everything Mediawiki can.
[01:08:13] 	And suddenly I want to break into song...

[01:09:30] 	LOL
[01:09:40] 	My Extension doesn't want to improve Mediawiki.
[01:10:13] 	I just meant that I can read from any mw namespace or from any mysql db table, as far as I know
[01:10:48] 	and via $bla = wfMsg('my-name'); I should also have very easy access to system messages.
[01:11:04] 	So why not $configuration = wfMsg('my-extension-config')? :-)
[01:11:31] 	*FACEPALM*
[01:11:34] 	sigh
[01:11:43] 	 I thought an extension can do everything Mediawiki can.
[01:11:46] 	and more
[01:11:49] 	hence the word "extension"
[01:11:55] 	yes, of course
[01:12:01] 	lets say, for example, you have an extension to log certain actions to a plain .txt file
[01:12:19] 	it doesn't have to write to the db, it can just output a .txt that you can easily crop or delete whenever
[01:12:33] 	yes, of course
[01:12:35] 	well, you could have an extension to take data you entered into a Special: page and put it in a .conf file
[01:12:46] 	 I doubt that saving extension configuration in a mediawiki file is really intelligent -- it has to be parsed every time the extension is called 
[01:12:51] 	then you wouldn't have ^ that problem
[01:12:56] 	but then you *would* have an on-wiki UI
[01:13:08] 	make sense?
[01:13:19] 	You mean I should implement some caching system.
[01:13:26] 	...
[01:13:29] 	nevermind
[01:13:38] 	 Sylvanus: no, I mean a Special: page that read/writes a file, not a page in the DB or any mw namespace
[01:14:36] 	you seemed to be fishing for alternatives to putting configurable data into the DB/MW-namespace
[01:14:38] 	my mistake
[01:15:41] 	Well, I've got these two alternatives: (a) MW system message (b) LocalConfig.inc.php. The point is that I want to make configuration easy and comprehensible
[01:15:56] 	for stupid users that cannot code PHP.

[06:25:47] 	Any ideas on why the snapshot for InputBox is missing? http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:InputBox
[06:27:06] 	Hello Emufarmers.
[06:27:07] 	You get intermittant problems like that, use subversion browser to download them manuaklly 
[06:27:16] 	Hello o;
[06:27:53] 	It doesn't appear to be an intermittent problem; the snapshot repository isn't out to pasture: the extension just isn't there
[06:33:40] 	Has anyone asked the snapshot repository?
[06:35:56] 	I don't know if we can get it to talk without resorting to torture
[06:41:25] 	Hello all! Quick question - does anyone here know how to enable a proper printable version using the monobook skin? I can't seem to do it, and the version from the print dialogue is pretty ugly and not hiding elements like the search form and sidebar links.
[06:45:37] 	metropolitan: have you searched whether there is an extension to change the printable versions?
[06:46:20] 	As for a pre-developed solution without getting your hands dirty, thats probably the only way. Other than that it will involve searching mediawiki manuals to find where the printable version is at and editing the source directly
[06:46:34] 	---
[06:48:51] 	I've given it a cursory once over, but I didn't see anything; I'll go look again. I don't mind getting my hands dirty, but even when I start looking through and editing files like commonPrint.css, I get no result when I test. It's odd!
[06:50:21] 	although css can is often the origin of page position using its floats, position:absolute/relative, and so forth...
[06:50:48] 	in the case of mediawiki, its probably got a lot more to do with font styles etc
[06:51:01] 	I would suggest finding the php file which does your print template construction
[06:51:52] 	In the case of mediawiki, the fastest way is using help manuals. In the case that its not easy to find or in other applications, i often find myself viewing the source code, and writing down some sort of key word (such as a class ID or CLASS). I then open documents and search that keyword to find the origin
[06:52:14] 	Thats a crude method but always works, 
[06:52:29] 	Ah, good idea! Thanks bladerunner. I was running 1.13.4 up until this evening when I upgraded to 1.14.0; before the upgrade I had a very nice simple print version that hid everything but the content and title (and images, if there were any.) Is it possible that it's the new version?
[06:53:52] 	my bad
[06:53:54] 	it does use the css
[06:53:56] 	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Printable
[06:53:57] 	there you go
[06:54:03] 	just did a quick search
[06:56:48] 	Damn! I looked at that page and completely missed the wikiprintable.css part at the bottom. Thanks again, bladerunner!
[06:57:29] 	And I just re-watched the final cut of Blade Runner on Sunday...
[07:08:06] 	I always liked the futuristic game that came out a number of years ago
[07:08:18] 	It was cutting edge in its day
[07:08:52] 	The one from the late 90's?
[07:08:56] 	yeh
[07:09:30] 	I remember it, but I don't think I ever played it. Looked good. Ever read the book?
[07:09:50] 	No, I think i should now that you mention it
[07:09:59] 	is it good?
[07:10:42] 	Philip K. Dick is good stuff - they made a few of his books into movies. Blade Runner is based on "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" - it's great, that one.
[07:10:52] 	The one Total Recall is based on is good too
[07:12:47] 	Thanks, Ive made a note of that, its always good to revisit classics
[07:13:15] 	Sure :)
[07:14:45] 	I have a question, I know it speaks to a lack of wider knowldge on user_rights and namespaces, (which I apologize for). Anyway question: I want to disallow the editing of Talk: namespace but still allow the user to add new comments to it
[07:15:28] 	I understand the basic concept which is $wgNamespaceProtection, I just havnt found any help pages on this specific sub-section of functionality
[07:15:30] 	adding comments is an act of editing
[07:15:43] 	damn, that makes things tricky
[07:16:12] 	Yeah, I'd imagine it's difficult to protect a page but allow comments. Hrm.
[07:16:51] 	Well essentially what I'm aiming for in my build is that you have to be registered to change articles
[07:17:01] 	except iw ould prefer if people could still discuss thinsg unregistered
[07:17:20] 	Well I think that's doable - hold on a sec.
[07:17:52] 	well i managed to disallow all but the Talk namespace, the problem is that that leaves the "edit" button in the talk namespace as well as the comment button
[07:18:14] 	Hmm, that just made me think of a hack, I could just create a conditional to remove the edit button, then its only editable to the public if the brute force the address in
[07:18:27] 	That doesnt worry me because i can do a rollback if that happens
[07:18:46] 	still seems a bit silly, i hoped there was a better way
[07:21:19] 	Maybe something with $wgRestrictionTypes? http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgRestrictionTypes
[07:21:41] 	or $wgGroupRestrictions?
[07:23:08] 	Thanks for looking, I think I'm going to go with an ad hoc solution for now and put it on a 'to do' list
[07:23:23] 	I'm going to run with the notion that its a form of editing and not available from a localsettings default setting
[07:23:54] 	Sounds like as good of an idea as any - sorry I couldn't come up with anything better!
[07:24:14] 	all good
[07:26:27] 	I get such installation error, and I have specified the correct root password for mysql http://pastebin.com/m5e4486ec
[07:26:30] 	What about this one, is there any way to create a default talk page entry everytime a wiki entry is created. This way people wont be directed to a page-edit the first time "talk is clicked"
[07:27:21] 	yang2: Check your username and password allocated to that database, do you have phpmyadmin
[07:27:29] 	Yang, does your user have the proper permissions?
[07:28:32] 	 Is there someway you could do that with Templates, bladerunner?
[07:28:41] 	bladerunner1: are you wanting to keep people from creating the page, or editing the page?
[07:28:58] 	I think that I can only connect to mysql as root via phpmyadmin, I cannot via shell
[07:29:30] 	I want people to be able to add comments to articles. Ive solved my first issue by just removing the edit button from Talk namespace so people can only see add comment. What i want now is:
[07:29:53] 	When a new article is created, the first time you click discussion it brings up an edit namespace and asks if you want to create the new entry
[07:30:15] 	I want it so when an article is created the talk namespace is already created with a small template
[07:30:47] 	I'm pretty sure i could just fork a mysql process and perhaps enter some data, I'm just being lazy here and talking out loud.. my bad
[07:31:12] 	i have fixed it now, works
[07:31:37] 	yang2: I think we've all done that before at some time or another
[07:32:21] 	which button is "Add comment?"

[07:33:11] 	I could remove the discussion button all together
[07:33:17] 	and just make it this instead: index.php?title=Talk:Namespace&action=edit§ion=new
[07:33:50] 	/etc/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php
[07:33:51] 	well.. hmm no because i want people to SEE articles in there first then choose to add a new one
[07:34:04] 	It needs default data i guess
[07:34:35] 	ok, lay out again what you're wanting here. Logged in users can edit articles and create talk pages? Anonymous users can only add comments to talk pages?
[07:34:53] 	yes, and of course view the existing comments on talk pages
[07:35:09] 	oh, that's easy
[07:35:15] 	I will add this to a discussion on the Talk namespace once were done OverlordQ :)
[07:35:33] 	orly? whats your thoughts on method?
[07:36:05] 	hallo
[07:36:51] 	just turn off page creation: $wgGroupPermissions['*']['createpage'] = false;
[07:37:37] 	and turn it on for only selected groups
[07:40:53] 	Hrm. I'm still having no luck enabling the printable version link with the monobook skin in 1.14.0 - I've tried editing various CSS files and can't seem to change even the print preview. Any thoughts?
[07:42:30] 	one key thing
[07:42:35] 	is which css file you are editing
[07:42:47] 	the first thing i would do if i was you is install the web developer and firebug plugins
[07:43:02] 	then use your toolbar ( i cant remember which of the two it is), then click Edit, View CSS
[07:43:07] 	view the CSS output
[07:43:19] 	it may well be its actually a CSS file from inside your skins/template/ folder
[07:43:58] 	those plugins are for firefox by the way, its my preferred web development testing platform
[07:44:15] 	Got 'em already bladerunner :) but apparently MonoBook is designed to ignore the printable version link; I only see the stripped version when I go to my print dialogue and see a preview.
[07:44:57] 	And the stripped version isn't all that stripped! The sidebar links are there, the footer, etc. But even when I try to style that, I get nothing - and I don't know why...
[07:46:10] 	Have you got a live link 
[07:46:39] 	Unfortunately not, just my local server
[07:49:09] 	hmm
[07:49:14] 	maybe you were talking to the wrong person
[07:49:31] 	I just did a search on "printable" being the GET function called

[10:08:21] 	Hi, I have a question: I've been testing and playing with various extensions for mediawiki. I often come across ones that dont have direct download links so i use the SVN. My question is whether we are required to copy ALL of the files to the extension direction upon installation. I am not currently using extensionmanager because Im working on a windows environment 
[10:09:11] 	I'm using an extension at the moment which i would assume is fairly commonplace Extension:CategoryTree which is giving me grief in installation and I'm thinking its probably my implementation
[10:12:53] 	i want to hide special sections of a page to users who are not logged in, is there any command for this? thank you
[10:14:48] 	bladerunner1: just download the files, put them in a folder and add the line to LocalSettings
[10:15:39] 	Hmm, thats what i thought
[10:16:05] 	hey you were the one i was speaking to earlier, I found this extension: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EditTalkRight
[10:16:30] 	Which does exactly what i need. When i tried to implement what we discussed it didnt work
[10:16:43] 	tobiastobias: help:user_rights
[10:18:49] 	you can do the same thing that extension does with what's in MW core iirc
[10:19:10] 	well thats what i thought, but when i tried this it did nothing: $wgGroupPermissions['*']['createpage'] = false;
[10:19:27] 	* user can still create talk namespace pages
[10:20:05] 	i need to learn to use appropriate terms, i mean they can still add sections
[10:20:25] 	omg
[10:20:32] 	i was just looking at the link i pasted tobias
[10:20:34] 	createtalk
[10:20:35] 	hahahahahah
[10:21:21] 	there it is
[10:25:01] 	is it possible to lock the navigation bar for users not logged in?
[10:28:41] 	Possible, yes. What do you mean by lock
[10:28:50] 	you mean 'not appear' for users not logged in
[10:28:57] 	or the hyperlinks appear but clicking them does nothing
[10:29:11] 	that is an idea
[10:29:29] 	or the links can't be seen
[10:29:50] 	links cant be seen would be better in my opinion, yes you can
[10:30:03] 	the easiest way to achieve this would be to create an adjustment to your template file
[10:30:18] 	there are various areas of navigation, the one you are looking for is custom navigation
[10:31:50] 	Theres some conditional, i cant remmber exactly something like this:  if($wgUser->isAnon()){ ad code }
[10:31:57] 	look at the help pages thats a common request
[10:41:27] 	hi, i would like to backup my mediawiki mysql database (DB name: wikidb, DB user: wikiuser) so exactly what command should i type to do this? and then if i reinstalled mysql on another machine what command would i type to have mediawiki accept the archived database?
[10:42:55] 	an easy way to to a manual backup is use phpmyadmin
[10:43:06] 	export your database to a file, then import it using phpmyadmin on the other
[10:43:23] 	google phpmyadmin export database if you want pictures

[11:10:49] 	how does extension:header_footer even work? I cant see where i invoke the headers and footers
[11:10:54] 	is that by editing the main file?
[11:13:59] 	i got it dw, you have to put that in your browser window
[11:16:46] 	how can you make invisible headlines with a working TOC? display:none defuncts te TOC, font-size:0 works in FF but not e.g. in Chrome, color:#ffffff is uncool.
[11:17:18] 	i only need it for section jumping without headlines though
[11:19:22] 		maybe a stupid question, can you update the parser test separately ?
[11:22:38] 	Hubble3000: the key benefit of display: hidden is that you can toggle page elements without javascript instantaenously and efficiently
[11:22:44] 	it does have that setback
[11:23:09] 	there are various other methods to hide content, for example working natively in php you can obviously use if conditionals
[11:23:16] 	javascript similar too
[11:24:36] 	using it on an article
[11:25:12] 	only for one article so no major change
[11:28:32] 	Hubble3000: look at {{anchor}} on en.wiki
[11:29:49] 	thanks will do.
[11:30:09] 	visibility:hidden hides the headline text but not the space it uses

[11:38:26] 	pallas23, skins/MonoBook.php might have what you want.  Depending on exactly what you want to change.
[11:38:28] 	couldn't find anything on mediawiki.org either

[11:42:13] 	(i searched "monobook/" for a php-file, but just didn't look in the parent dir)
[11:42:46] 	maybe it helps if I describe it the other way around: I have a long table and want to enable jumping to certain rows by a list on top.
[11:43:12] 	Thanks again and have a nice day :)
[11:43:42] 	easiest would be 	Hubble3000, you can use  for the same effect.

[11:49:23] 	cheerio
[11:58:26] 	hi Simetrical 
[12:43:20] 	what's the most sensible way to transfer all pages from one db backup to another wiki? is it possible without transferring user account data and history?
[12:44:34] 	i'm facing the problem that my wiki tables are partially utf8 and partially latin1
[12:44:40] 	i need to convert them all to utf8
[12:46:53] 	you will need to page histories as well or it will break things
[12:47:28] 	piksi: are you sure you want to convert them to utf-8?  there are still problems with the experimental utf-8 schema
[12:47:37] 	(like mysql not supporting all of the unicode character set)
[12:48:10] 	oh, i didn't know that
[12:48:24] 	Also, If you using a SQL DB backup, not including the user table would break refferential integrity
[12:48:24] 	(and it's not well tested, since almost all wikis use the latin1 "fake utf8" schema)
[12:49:08] 	flyingparchment: ok, i just assumed it would be a good practice to convert all data to utf8 as i'm used to using that. also i don't have need for the complete character set, just the most commonly used part
[12:49:13] 	what would be the easiest/straightest way to allow anonymous users to see pages only in main ns?
[12:49:25] 	flyingparchment: but if it's not production safe to convert, then i'll forget about it :-)
[12:49:41] 	piksi: well, there are a couple of advantages.. mainly 1) getting a proper collation (e.g. in sorted lists of pages) and 2) working with the database using external tools
[12:50:41] 	you can do the conversion in-place, but i'm not sure how off hand.  (there are two mysql commands, one that re-encodes the data, and one that just changes the character set without touching the data... you want the second one)
[12:51:05] 	flyingparchment: i found this but i'm not quite sure if it's a very reliable way: http://docs.joomla.org/Convert_a_MySQL_database_to_UTF-8
[12:51:45] 	i don't think i'd want to do it that way
[12:52:21] 	flyingparchment: I am hating on your government
[12:52:29] 	So many goddamn hoops to jump through to get a visa
[12:52:55] 	flyingparchment: yeah, me neither. i don't see any reason why i should have to dump the whole database and create another one just to convert it..

[12:53:14] 	blah

[13:52:42] 	bladerunner1: look at the liquidthreads extension
[13:52:56] 	Ive got Articlecomments installed
[13:53:02] 	thanks, ill check it now!
[13:53:07] 	piksi: "compatible" means make the db treat it as binary. "expermimental" means use mysql
[13:53:16] 	...mysql's unicode support
[13:53:23] 	which is incomplete.
[13:53:30] 	Duesentrieb: ah ok, that explains a lot. thanks

[13:54:23] 	way better so far
[13:55:16] 	the good thing is that because its redoing the comments I should be able to create what i want by altering that extension directly rather than having to digg through the whole mediawiki

[13:58:09] 	its infinately better, you can see why they are gunning to amke it part of mediawiki 2.0

[13:59:00] 	I dont know as to whether it would add overhead from extra database stuff
[13:59:10] 	i would assume not much because its only removing one thing and adding another
[13:59:34] 	the question is if it needs extra info in the db or not.
[13:59:38] 	yes
[13:59:40] 	i.e. easy of install
[13:59:51] 	it does, its harder than normal to install
[14:00:46] 	Lqt is hard to install because it doesn't use the correct hooks
[14:01:04] 	Usually, maintenance/update.php should be able to prepare any extension

[16:59:24] 	is there a way to make mediawiki authenticate to an external user db?
[17:00:53] 	natbet: good question. I too am interested in the answer
[17:01:37] 	http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Authentication
[17:02:24] 	for some practical applications therein: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:User_identity_extensions
[17:02:38] 	or if you need to write your own: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/AuthPlugin
[17:03:15] 	is there a way to include/embed another page section into a page?
[17:03:43] 	{{template name}} == {{Template:template name}}, but if you specify the namespace you can transclude any page
[17:04:02] 	{{User:Yourname}} {{Help:Flibble}} etc, to transclude main namespace pages use a bare colon: {{:Main Page}}
[17:04:05] 	eg {{User:Example}}

[17:43:56] 	any people here au fait with MWDumper?
[17:44:19] 	kopf: what sort of trouble you having?
[17:44:33] 	well there's a switch for it, to exclude all user and talk pages
[17:44:34] 	is the book printed in graphite?
[17:44:49] 	I'd like to exclude only User pages (And user talk pages), but include all article and article talk pages
[17:44:53] 	is this possible?
[17:44:58] 	is every other page blank?
[17:45:25] *Splarka 	gets the book and starts editing
[17:45:29] 	I know.. but she is on the front page ... rather funny
[17:46:26] 	kopf: with the namespace filter option?
[17:46:45] 	Ahh.. I was confused as to what that was for.. 
[17:46:48] 	:)
[17:47:19] <^demon>	Android is reminding me of high school.
[17:47:20] 	When I looked at it, it registered in my head as discriminating between namespaces such as "wikipedia" "wikitionary" etc.. which seemed odd at the time but I didn't think about it again :)
[17:47:24] 	cheers!
[17:50:44] <^demon>	brion: Did you ever get a 2nd look at that patch from yesterday after I tweaked it?
[17:52:16] 	hi there, i have just upgraded my mediawiki and get the following error in preferences : urlencode() expects parameter 1 to string object given in /mywebpath/includes/GlobalFuntions.php on line 1141
[17:52:43] 	i looked on the mediawiki site, and one other person has this error, but hasnt received a response, does anyone know how to fix this
[17:53:03] 	^demon: not yet :)
[17:53:15] <^demon>	Alrighty, whenever you get time
[17:53:24] 	dv8_web: you got any extensions or custom code in there?
[17:53:44] 	shouldnt, it was a clean upgrade from standard.. ill check again tho
[17:57:26] 	nope nothing there
[17:58:15] 	line 1141 says : urlencode ( $value ) ;
[17:59:03] 	under the function wfArrayToCGI
[18:01:16] 	if i want to edit the way wiki structure is rendered as html (such as the category links etc) how should it be done?
[18:01:52] 	the skins just call $this->html('catlinks'); etc..
[18:09:22] 	i.e. is it safe to modify skin.php in includes dir?
[18:10:46] 	piksi, rather than doing this you should try to either write a proper extension or a custom skin class based on skin.php
[18:12:42] <^demon>	Editing anything in the /includes is generally a bad idea.
[18:13:29] 	jamasi: i've done that but the normal custom skinning doesn't really deal with modifying the actual html output of things such as catlinks, most skins just modify the superficial layout (restructuring the "big blocks") without caring how small stuff is output
[18:14:09] <^demon>	If you extend Skin instead of SkinTemplate or Monobook, you could implement the method yourself.
[18:14:10] 	so let's say i want to use my own getCategories() - can i just define it inside my own skin class?
[18:14:40] 	ah, my skin extends skintemplate
[18:14:50] 	piksi, then you should use an extension with the fitting hooks.
[18:14:54] 	and you could of cousrse rebuild that function in your own skin.
[18:15:33] 	the skin system of mediawiki is quite versatile
[18:15:34] <^demon>	Well, SkinTemplate extends Skin which extends Linker, so I guess you could implement any method going up to Linker.
[18:16:20] 	actually you can also get everything from the DB if you want to. or you can use the parser as well.
[18:16:38] <^demon>	Is Linker always called in the context of the skin?
[18:17:18] 	what would be the easiest/straightest way to allow anonymous users to see pages only in main ns?
[18:17:41] <^demon>	:-\
[18:20:07] 	^demon: thanks for explaining

[18:22:57] 	Danny_B, you could use the lockdown extension
[18:23:33] 	but it's not a complete solution
[18:24:07] *Splarka 	has more tentacles now than in that picture
[18:24:11] 	a custom skin might be another option.
[18:28:27] 	custom skin won't prevent you from trying random stuff in url
[18:31:26] 	the only thing i see as possible, though nasty,is to set right [*][read]=false and fill wgwhitelistread with the result of select page_title from page where page_namespace = 0
[19:11:18] 	Danny_B: $wgNamespaceProtection?
[19:11:46] 	dv8_web: Are you sure the upgrade went OK? I'm getting the idea that some file somewhere didn't get upgraded properly
[19:11:59] 	protection != read restriction
[19:12:27] 	Isn't it extensible to that level?
[19:12:28] 	hey guys
[19:12:31] 	RoanKattouw: as i understood the doc, it's protecting editing only
[19:12:35] 	Oh right, bad support for read restrictions and stuff
[19:12:42] 	can anyone tell me where this "Retrieved From: *site*" came from at the bottom of my wiki?
[19:12:45] 	if it would be extensible,i'd love to use it
[19:12:58] 	I was editing H sizes and it randomly showed up
[19:13:01] 	No idea where it came from.
[19:13:25] 	MarshallX: it should appear on all pages, hidden except when printing
[19:13:35] 	can i hide again
[19:13:36] 	MarshallX: that's standard part of the page
[19:13:38] 	we have never seen it until now
[19:13:59] 	you probabily invalidated your CSS somehow

[19:14:57] 	!css
[19:14:57] --mwbot--	To change styles for your wiki, go to one of the MediaWiki:xxx.css wiki page (NOT a file) and put your custom styles there (sysop/admin rights required). MediaWiki:Common.css is for all skins and should be used for content styles. MediaWiki:Monobook.css is for the MonoBook skin (default), etc. For more information, see !skins and 
[19:15:11] 	restore all /skin css files to original, edit those pages on-wiki
[19:15:29] 	RoanKattouw: if you knew about any other solution than the one i described,i'd be glad to hear it,thx
[19:15:54] 	MarshallX: validate your css
[19:16:02] 	is your site public?
[19:16:28] 	Danny_B: Afraid I don't, I guess this is covered by the usual warnings against support for read restrictions
[19:17:09] 	mediawiki should support such kind of stuff in some future version

[19:18:29] 	hehe,me? me, php lame? i'll win 10M USD earlier
[19:19:03] 	thanks got it

[19:20:03] 	==heading== ===heading=== etc
[19:20:11] 	MediaWiki:Monobook.css
[19:20:20] 	I'm not using monobook

[19:31:45] 	By the way, just an observation, but mwimport.pl was much slower than mwdumper for me, which is quite odd. Averaging at about 56 revisions per second compared to mwdumper which is now on 120
[19:33:15] 	mwdumper is reccomended
[19:33:59] 	mmm
[19:44:10] 	I'd put a notice up on the mwimport page on mediawiki to that effect, since I would've expected perl to be quicker, but i don't have a mediawiki acct
[20:01:41] 	kopf: java is quite fast once it's loaded. though i kind of doubt that the actual execution speed of the language is the limiting factor.

[20:17:17] 	Is there any way to add text after a heading? ===heading=== - Some additional text.

[20:21:10] 	Betacommand: Well, so it matches the rest of our internal documentation.
[20:21:29] 	Betacommand: We have SECTION HEADING - brief note
[20:21:56] 	I can put it on the next line, I was just wondering if there was a way to keep it on the same line. If not, no worries.
[20:21:59] 	why not just include the note as the first line after the heading
[20:22:13] 	rsimpkins: not without making it a heading
[20:22:17] 	I can, I was just trying to match the hundreds of docs we already have written that do not do that.
[20:22:34] 	Knowing it isn't possible is good enough.
[20:22:40] 	Thank you for the help.
[20:25:12] 	you can use html headings 

foobar

[20:25:38] then you can do tricks like display:inline or inside [20:25:46] but then they aren't editable sections [20:26:15] aren't they? [20:26:26] They appear in the TOC at least [20:26:41] But I don't know offhand whether the parser will generate [edit] links for them [20:27:44] Nikerabbit: depends on version -> http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Migration_to_the_new_preprocessor [20:27:58] > Headers created with

... etc no longer create an editable section. They also do not create a section divide when editing sections. They do however add a level to the TOC as well as an anchor for linking. This allows you to add uneditable sections to a template, and still have editable sections on the page, which isn't possible with __NOEDITSECTION__. [20:28:38] tea for Splarka [20:28:43] Splarka++ [20:28:45] I cheated, I wrote that section [20:29:26] the behavior of headings has changed a few times [20:29:54] in 1.4 it used to work like in the newPP, but somewhere between 1.5 and 1.11 they became the same as == == style [20:31:28] hmm, actually... [20:31:36]

baz foobar

[20:31:36] ==baz foobar== [20:31:45] both work the same, although the TOC is quite ugly [20:32:05] (the floaty bit has to be to the left of the text to be above the baseline) [20:33:26] rsimpkins: what is the html of your "We have SECTION HEADING - brief note" in your internal documentation? [20:33:33] or is it plain text... [20:33:41] Splarka: It is a word doc. [20:33:44] *rsimpkins slaps head. [20:33:54] Hundreds of word docs. [20:33:56] heh [20:33:57] Do you feel my pain? [20:34:06] buy me dinner first [20:34:30] anyway, maybe headings aren't your desire, though the TOC and editable sections make it quite desirable [20:34:56] ( and/or == that is) [20:34:58] rsimpkins: there's a word macro for converting to wikitext... [20:35:01] I'm not sure what we are doing yet. We've got a bunch of departments, and everyone has done their own thing for years. We've got phpwiki, twiki, mediawiki, word docs, text, etc. [20:35:19] All technical documentation. [20:35:44] rsimpkins: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Word_macros [20:38:46] hmm, InternalParseBeforeLinks is just before doHeadings()... [20:40:04] you might could simply regexly change all == heading - note == to == heading - note automatically [20:47:20] i uploaded the WRONG file to our mediawiki. i am not a sysop. how can i delete the file I uploaded? [20:48:03] <^demon> Ask a sysop [20:48:21] i did that but he rarely logs in. is that the only way? [20:48:40] <^demon> Or upload a new version (and just replace it with something different).

[21:34:14] http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki?view=rev&revision=16658 [21:34:16] *Danny_B wonders ho long is so called brion's second ;-) [21:34:21] the snowman? [21:34:36] * (bug 6849) Block @ from usernames; interferes with multi-database tools and was meant to be banned years ago... For now existing accounts will not be prevented fromm login. [21:34:46] <^demon> Right, because it was being used for @enwiki, etc. [21:34:51] the silly part was using @ as a user/db delimiter [21:35:06] it wouldn't have had to have been blacklisted otherwise, if some other format had been chosen ^_^ [21:35:08] *RoanKattouw finds Splarka has to repeat himself a lot these days [21:35:16] <^demon> But why bother changing it now? Why is having @ important? [21:35:25] because people want it [21:35:28] hmm [21:35:31] because people want it/are used to it [21:35:46] plus it makes more sense than > or | or one of the other characters [21:35:54] someuser some database [21:36:09] <^demon> I suppose I don't see @ as being that important to a username :) [21:36:27] I know, but quite a few wikis want to use email addresses for usernames... [21:36:43] @ is kinda important for email addresses ;) [21:36:53] <^demon> Blah :p [21:37:33] of course, there is no good way to modify the userrights code to allow for @ to check for local and global (like, what if both users exist, which one should we modify?) [21:37:37] Nevermind, I just found my solution... I had to set $wgVerifyMimeType = false; [21:37:51] brion: with shared user and global hooliganism/userrights, are interwiki rights even needed anymore? [21:37:56] ^demon: i've got perfect existing usecase where @ is amust [21:38:21] (on WMF that is, not just mediawiki) [21:39:27] <^demon> Danny_B: If there's a good case for it. :) [21:39:37] one of our internet providers who runs several services (social portal, email etc...) started up wiki. and they use the user's email address as login to that wiki because they use central database. it's like google uses email addresses.microsoft does etc. [21:39:50] <^demon> Fair enough :) [21:40:01] thanks.

[21:43:06] <^demon> (anyone) If you've got a file handle, is there a way to do fread() with a callback as the data's being read? I know you can with curl. [21:43:23] Splarka: you can use anything you want for the delimiter... [21:43:28] 03(NEW) Log entries on the Watchlist should have css classes - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17666 15enhancement; normal; MediaWiki: Watchlist; (janhelgewolf) [21:43:29] but right now you must use a valid page title for the username, an I imagine so even in interwiki rights, since it adds a link object to the log [21:43:34] idk if it hasn't been said already (i came in the middle and did not read log) but why the delimiter in meta log can't be danny_b.|cswiki instad of current danny_b.@cswiki ? [21:43:34] ah [21:43:36] [[foobar@enwiki]] [21:43:43] or something [21:43:52] I'll have to test that [21:43:52] so you'd have to make sure it worked with foobar|enwiki [21:44:09] or find something that is a valid page character and not a valid username characer, like slash [21:44:21] foobar/enwiki for example [21:44:32] I'll test it ^_^ [21:44:36] Splarka: How about just sticking to @ because it's intuitive? :P [21:44:37] i was actually asking because i'm not so familiar with where everywhere it's used [21:44:46] Roan: whiners whine... [21:44:54] lol [21:45:18] better to deprecate the @ hack anyway, heh [21:45:51] :o Man caterpillars are awesome. [21:45:58] Oh wait, wrong channel.

[22:37:00] got it. no worries [22:42:16] bugzilla.wikimedia - oh what a descriptive username [22:42:39] bugzilla doesn't have usernames, it's just the first part of his email address [22:42:46] i know [22:43:30] but does it need to be so in wikibugs? can't the regex replace it? or is the username not available in the email? [22:43:59] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki?action=purge Download link is now direct. /me waits for complaints. [22:44:10] Splarka: what would the regex replace it with? [22:45:07] I think the download link is now sufficiently unavoidable. [22:45:24] It's irksome to go to a website and not be able to find the download link easily. [22:46:19] flyingparchment: here's a mad idea.. how about the nickname? [22:46:34] Splarka: nickname? you mean the real name? [22:46:40] Marybelle: I don't like it :P [22:46:47] Good. [22:47:06] flyingparchment: Yes, that would be more helpful than first part of e-mail address. [22:47:48] flyingparchment: if people choose to use their real name, sure, but a lot treat it as the nickname [22:47:53] "Your real name (optional, but encouraged)" [22:48:38] which would make a wee bit more sense than the first part of the email address [22:49:11] (where available, some restrictions apply, this offer is not valid in combination with any other offers, void where prohibited) [22:50:49] 03siebrand * r47816 10/trunk/phase3/languages/messages/ (135 files): Localisation updates for core messages from translatewiki.net (2009-02-25 22:32 UTC) [22:58:55] 03siebrand * r47817 10/trunk/extensions/ (94 files in 80 dirs): Localisation updates for extension messages from translatewiki.net (2009-02-25 22:32 UTC) [22:59:32] hi [23:01:23] is it possible to define a namespace, for example "item:" whose links don't have the namespaces name as prefix? So when you define the link [[item:apple]] the link text would be "apple" and not "item:apple" ? [23:02:21] it would be nearly the same than the article namespace [23:03:45] that "begs the question" (heh), why even have them in a separate namespace? to categorize them? [23:04:32] because there will be a lot of items and i dont want them inside the article namespace. [23:05:07] but it would look more pretty when I have lists of items without thousands of leading "item" prefixes [23:05:26] Then how would the software distinguish between [[item:apple]] and [[apple]]? [23:05:38] (Just use a template. {{item|apple}}) [23:05:41] <^demon> Marybelle: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?user=^demon&limit=2 [23:05:50] you could manually hide it each time.. [[item:apple|apple]], you could template-hide it.. {{item|apple}} -> [[item:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] [23:06:07] you should define it with [[item:apple]], the only difference is how it is displayed [23:06:14] *Marybelle laughs at ^demon. [23:06:32] you could probably even set up an extension hooking into Title.php to create implicit but non-existent redirects from mainspace for any pages that exist in item: namespace [23:06:32] ←Created page with 'Category:Whoo Category:Sexy Category:Yummy' [23:06:44] <^demon> Dummy content. [23:06:50] No shit. :P [23:07:19] so if [[item:apple]] existed it could be linked to via [[apple]], maybe [23:07:27] That seems dangerous. [23:07:43] you sound dangerous [23:07:53] <^demon> Marybelle: /me waits for a lynch mob to insist that I can't be trusted as a sysop [23:07:57] Splarka: spend less time around Marybelle plz [23:08:16] werdnum: I stole that from him. [23:08:27] Less "plz" please. [23:08:30] you could make an extension hooking InternalParseBeforeLinks and regexly replace \[\[item:[^\n]]*\]\] with [[item:$1|$1]] [23:09:12] er [23:09:23] hm ok there is no official solution for that? [23:09:26] ^\n|\]] even, I guess, or whatever php regex would need [23:09:45] it isn't a very common request [23:10:28] 23:08 < Splarka> you could make an extension hooking InternalParseBeforeLinks and regexly replace \[\[item:[^\n]]*\]\] with [[item:$1|$1]] [23:10:31] *werdnum stabs Splarka [23:10:45] *Splarka sticks tongue out at werdnum [23:10:46] More quoting. [23:11:05] stab him not me! if he asks for help shooting himself in the foot, I want to make sure he's pointing the gun at his foot, and not us [23:11:29] ok thanks, perhaps I will create an extension which allows to define namespaces which should behave like that [23:12:04] Danwe: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks#Page_Rendering [23:12:21] <^demon> Can you not make Item: a namespace alias for main? [23:13:00] Huh. [23:13:34] ^demon: then they'd just be mainspace articles [23:14:02] <^demon> He said he wants Item:Apple to be pretty much identical to Apple. Auto-redirecting, auto-resolving of links. Why not just make Item: an alias? [23:14:06] The template is the easiest approach. [23:14:11] and they'd appear to start with item: and the link would contain item:, but not actually be in that namespace, sort of the opposite of his desire [23:17:18] <^demon> Hmm. [23:17:47] ^demon: because there will be a lot of items and i dont want them inside the article namespace. [23:17:58] an alias would put them in article namespace [23:18:02] * RoanKattouw finds Splarka has to repeat himself a lot these days [23:45:25] I'm trying to add an interwiki prefix to my wiki. I added a row in the interwiki table and it looks like all the other rows in there, except the url is https instead of http. When I try to use the prefix on the page, the only thing that shows up is a new section on the left that says "in other languages" and then it has some strange characters [23:45:36] Any suggestions? [23:46:02] did you happen to choose a prefix that matches an existing language code? [23:46:27] http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/languages/Names.php?view=co&content-type=text%2Fplain [23:46:47] those codes are pre-defined resreved codes for interlang links, you shouldn't use them for interwiki prefixes [23:46:55] damn, yes... I chose bug [23:46:59] heh [23:46:59] thank you! [23:47:05] wikimedia uses bugzilla: [23:47:14] and that's what I'll use then =) [23:47:18] thanks very much [23:47:20] rar [23:48:49] That "feature" is annoying, the list is not stable.
