[00:01:25] I don't think that's supported, actually. [00:01:33] For some reason. [00:01:38] I could be wrong, though. [00:02:44] <^demon> Yeah, there's something odd about it. [00:02:55] <^demon> (That and the whole anon-logging issue) [00:03:14] anon-logging issue? [00:03:32] I don't see anything in SpecialUpload.php that prohibits it, but that's trunk. [00:03:47] alxndr, currently I don't think our logging table supports logged events by anonymous users. [00:03:55] ah [00:04:37] Thanks, I gotta run, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something totally obvious. I'll probably be back to bug you all tomorrow. [00:44:23] <^demon> atglenn: Do you know who can check on wikibugs? It's been dead all afternoon. [00:44:43] hmm [00:45:39] well possibly me (but only if you tell me what the host is :-D) [00:46:43] <^demon> atglenn: Ah, docs here: http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Wikibugs [00:47:18] let me see if I know anything about it and/or could easily poke it [00:48:13] <^demon> Thanks :) [00:50:29] weirdly the host it should be running on shows it running [00:51:07] this is out of my expertise [00:53:18] you will have to check with werdna or someone else later.. I am sorry [00:59:16] <^demon> atglenn: Thanks for checking. Will ping somebody when I see them (werdna, you around?) [00:59:42] sorry.. I don't even see what script start it, or I'd just try a restart and see [00:59:45] good luck [01:18:40] 03tparscal * r53346 10/trunk/extensions/FundraiserPortal/ (38 files in 3 dirs): [01:18:40] Added templates for portals, and brough some of the styles in which were decided [01:18:40] on over on meta [01:18:40] (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_2009/Donation_buttons_upgrade). [01:18:40] Still a small bug in Ruby when scaling text up - and I have not tested these in [01:18:43] many browsers yet... [01:27:25] hi, how can I get APC on windows? [02:13:21] Hmm, did Tim die? :( [02:19:18] Emufarmers, the funeral was this morning, where were you? [02:19:55] There's something seriously wrong with this channel when Simetrical is the one making the jokes o: [02:20:19] Why do people always think I'm humorless? Other than because I am, that's not a fair reason. [02:20:20] Simetrical: please stay on topic, this are serious channel [02:20:31] *Splarka tries to keep a straight face [02:20:38] *Simetrical bends Splarka's face [02:20:55] Simetrical: didn't you describe yourself as a robot the other day? :D [02:21:09] Also, I was at my new internship that I got through a Wikipedia meetup! So don't let anybody tell you that Wikipedia is a waste of time. [02:21:19] Emufarmers, . . . maybe. But you can't prove it. At least without cheating and resorting to channel logs, or other forms of proof. [02:21:37] *Simetrical tends to be sillier when he's tired. [02:22:38] oh btw, you silently broke mwsuggest by removing is_khtml (as it calls for it in a try{} with silent return failure) [02:22:50] but mdale fixed it by accidentally overwriting everything on branch merge [02:22:58] <^demon> btw I want someone to fix wikibugs :-\ [02:24:49] as in the bot i guess.... [02:25:09] Splarka, is_khtml is a spectacularly broken sniffing feature. It was originally designed to match KHTML five years ago, and now matches every version of KHTML *and* WebKit released since. [02:25:27] Removing it is a positive thing, it means people will notice where their scripts were broken. [02:25:50] Oh, it was re-added, I thought that was fixed. [02:25:51] sure, but ya shoulda grepped /phase3 and /extensions for usages [02:26:01] I thought I did. [02:26:01] it was /accidentally/ readded [02:26:09] Yes, but I thought it was removed. [02:26:15] oh, dunno [02:26:23] should probably be reverted, trunk is super broken [02:26:49] <^demon> Splarka: Which is why I'm holding off on my merge. I'm waiting for trunk to be semi-stable again. [02:27:24] Moral: don't use branches. [02:27:53] hmm, 3 matches in phase3: wikibits, prefs, mwsuggest [02:28:01] I don't see it in prefs. [02:28:05] <^demon> Simetrical: Which is why I'm merging what I've got now, rather than finishing it and then merging. [02:28:36] Sim: werdna removed it on trunk [02:28:41] http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki?view=rev&revision=53189 [02:29:11] but it is still in mwsuggest.js [02:29:35] It looks like that should be checking whether the box actually overflows, instead of doing UA detection. [02:30:01] I'm not clear on why it needs overflow-x instead of just overflow. [02:30:12] yah, it is usually generally a lot better to check for conditions rather than UA, but not always possible [02:30:23] dunno, pokle rainman ^_^ [02:30:51] <^demon> Whoo, patch for maintenance-work is 14000+ lines [02:31:41] What the heck? Why is this absolutely positioned using a pixel value . . . ? [02:33:23] I see, it needs overflow-y: auto for the scroll bar. [02:34:13] ahh, and there isn't a good way to hard-hard-superhard-force-wrap non-breaking text in FF [02:34:38] Splarka, would it be possible in JS to directly tell whether overflow-x is supported? [02:34:41] though they could perhaps insert zero width breaking spaces between each letter in JS [02:34:50] hmm [02:35:05] I don't think so:/ [02:35:26] You can't apply the rule and then try retrieving a list of applied rules or something? [02:35:37] you can assign any arbitrary properties to the .style object AFAIK [02:35:52] hmm [02:36:20] *Splarka tests [02:36:22] apergos/atglenn: I know this isn't your thing, but in light of Tim's untimely demise, could you check on the SVN whatevermajig that Special:ExtensionDistributor relies on? [02:37:48] hello... er, what? [02:38:00] var foo = document.getElementById('foo');foo.style.overflowFoo = 'auto';alert(foo.style.overflowFoo); [02:38:01] let me check my mail and stuff first, ok? I just got in. then, if you [02:38:11] tell me what I am looking for, I can see [02:38:12] Simetrical: that echoes back as is, so not much good [02:38:16] (but it may be out ofmy area) [02:39:33] apergos: er, sorry; no rush. Just http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:ExtensionDistributor which is running http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ExtensionDistributor It's been saying that it's "Unable to contact remote subversion client." for the last day+ [02:39:55] Splarka, does this work? typeof el.style.overflowX == 'string'; [02:40:39] returns 'true' [02:40:48] Even when it's not supported? [02:40:58] yes [02:41:08] for .style.overflow, .style.overflowX, and .style.overflowFoobar [02:41:19] totally arbitrary [02:41:32] *Splarka wonders if there is another method [02:41:34] http://www.quirksmode.org/blog/archives/2009/05/a_note_on_testi.html [02:42:23] Nobody uses meta keywords nowadays, right? ;-) [02:44:02] dear brother Green, I afear that thine noble quest to purge our humble village of witches hath gone a bit too far [02:44:26] for ift all our daughters be put to the flame, we have naught for to give us grandchildren [02:44:49] Not looking to submit it to Mediawiki's bugzille just yet. But I'm not seeing a hugely compelling reason for it to be there. [02:45:17] Whassat? [02:45:24] Splarka, if there's a 'foo' element on the page, this returns "undefined", "string" for me. var foo = document.getElementById('foo'); alert(typeof foo.style.overflowFoo); alert(typeof foo.style.overflowX); [02:45:52] oh, I thought you meant define it first [02:45:52] Google say they don't use them. Yahoo might, but given that the current keywords are all in the title or the content *anyway* . . . [02:45:53] *Splarka tries that [02:47:04] alert(typeof foo.style.overflowFoo); alert(typeof foo.style.overflowX); alert(typeof foo.style.overflow); [02:47:09] gives undefined/undefined/string [02:47:13] (earlier tests were per You can't apply the rule and then try retrieving) [02:47:13] What browser? [02:47:18] Mozilla [02:47:28] What version? One that actually supports overflow-x, or not? [02:47:35] 0.6 [02:47:40] Um, so that's no? [02:47:59] it does not support overflow-x [02:48:13] so that test works for mozilla/firefox I guess [02:48:18] Is there some easy way to get a random element to check with? I'd expect document.body.style.overflowX to be what I want, but it seems it's not. [02:48:20] as long as it hasn't been asigned already [02:48:28] *Simetrical needs to actually learn JavaScript someday :P [02:48:30] hmm [02:48:38] *Splarka too [02:48:53] lemme try something [02:49:12] var foo = document.createElement('div'); alert(typeof foo.style.overflowFoo); alert(typeof foo.style.overflowX); alert(typeof foo.style.overflow); [02:49:19] that works for me, undefined/undefined/string [02:49:43] you could just do that and then discard the element (or more appropriately, use it as the output box) [02:50:37] Oh, document.body works. I just didn't have a in my test page. :D [02:50:55] well, better to test what you're going to apply it to [02:51:07] It's a helper function, no easy access to that. [02:51:11] Hopefully it will make no difference. [02:51:45] well, it doesn't have to be a helper function [02:52:15] wtf I can't even see a web process running over there [02:52:21] must be missing something obvious [02:52:54] hmm, well maybe it does, but I guess you could pass the element as a parameter [02:53:20] Shouldn't matter, right? [02:53:38] dunno, maybe some wacky browser supports overflow-x on body but not elsewhere ^_^ [02:54:01] just seems asking for trouble to be checking something unrelated (same problem with using is_khtml) [02:54:18] I'd assume it's about as reliable as checking on the element itself. [02:54:19] apergos: well, there not being a web process running would explain why it's not finding anything to connect to :D [02:54:46] If this works at all, it will be because browsers that support overflow-x have an overflowX JavaScript property on all HTML elements. [02:55:10] no, I mean I can't find what's serving pages over there [02:55:11] mmm, well before you commit it, you should have some various opera users test it [02:55:15] but clearly it is [02:55:24] this might be a sign that I should pack it in for the evening :-P [02:55:43] apergos: oh well. Thanks for taking a look. :) [02:55:58] sorry to be of no use whatsoever :-D [02:57:23] Splarka, nah, they can do that after I commit it. [02:57:38] eeevil [02:58:20] Heck, it's just some padding heuristic. [02:58:26] What will happen, a bit of text will overflow somewhere? [02:58:33] 03simetrical * r53347 10/trunk/phase3/skins/common/mwsuggest.js: (log message trimmed) [02:58:33] Use capability testing instead of UA sniffing [02:58:33] This should theoretically work fine, but I'm admittedly not *totally* [02:58:33] sure what this is supposed to do, so I haven't actually tested it. The [02:58:33] old behavior was almost certainly wrong, though: is_khtml was returning [02:58:36] true for all WebKit, and non-ancient WebKit definitely supports [02:58:38] overflow-x. Robert Stojnic/rainman should take a look at this to make [02:58:45] 03simetrical * r53348 10/trunk/phase3/skins/common/wikibits.js: (log message trimmed) [02:58:45] Remove is_khtml again [02:58:46] This variable is completely misnamed, since it matches WebKit as well. [02:58:48] It's also almost certainly completely useless, since the probability of [02:58:52] some bug existing in all versions of KHTML/WebKit past, present, and [02:58:54] future is approximately zero. Use capability testing if at all [02:58:56] possible; and if it's not possible, then at least check "browser X [03:00:49] Splarka, it's much easier to tell people "check out trunk and try it" than "check out trunk, try applying this patch, resolve any conflicts, and try it". [03:00:50] :) [03:01:37] lvs4? [03:01:40] *apergos shakes head [03:01:47] nope, can't figure it out, giving up. [03:01:56] off to fight vandalism, what a day [03:02:55] Simetrical: but you can set up a test page and go to #wikipedia and say "OMG mwsuggst broken, I need opera fans!" [03:03:02] (too late) [03:03:18] Splarka, that's a great idea. How about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/? [03:03:28] BTW, the change affects WebKit too. [03:04:04] Simetrical: you're one of those "test it against a billion people a day" types aren't you [03:04:53] Simetrical: why did you re-patch wikibits.js? that should be the responsibility of mdale to re-merge correctly [03:04:58] Hey, give me paid testers who have to test what I tell them and I'll take that. Otherwise, heck if I'm going to waste my time begging people to volunteer when I can just test it out on trunk. [03:05:07] since he basically reverted it to the pre-branch state [03:05:12] He did re-merge it correctly, I think, or someone did. [03:05:16] Just not the is_khtml thing. [03:05:31] then it wasn't correctly, was it [03:05:41] r53285 [03:08:24] hmm [03:08:53] looks like he last svn:merge'd his wikibits.js 6 days, 4 hours ago [03:09:34] so probably these were the only changes he meant to introduce: http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/skins/common/wikibits.js?r1=52886&r2=53282 [03:09:37] 03simetrical * r53349 10/trunk/phase3/skins/common/wikibits.js: [03:09:37] Whitespace fixes [03:09:37] Remember to pass -w to svn blame! (Or -x -wu, or whatever svn blame [03:09:37] wants.) [03:10:00] *MrZ-man goes looking for some fun bugs [03:10:05] Okay, past 11 PM, beddy-bye time for me. Good night, stab me for breaking everything in the morning. [03:10:05] his actual changes were: http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/skins/common/wikibits.js?r1=53143&r2=53282 [03:10:17] and, /including/ the followup fix, his actual changes were: http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/skins/common/wikibits.js?r1=53143&r2=53285 [03:10:34] so he also seems to have regressed the is_opera_95 bit too [03:11:28] Simetrical? am I reading that right? [03:11:41] *Splarka tsks [03:20:22] hmm, someone screwed up logs [03:22:06] # (show/hide) 20:54, 10 June 2009 Mr.Z-man (Talk | contribs | block) moved Test to Test2 ‎ (revert) [03:32:52] is svn down, or am I just having issues? [03:33:00] Splarka: OK, I lied: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19761 [03:33:13] (and yes, I messed the first paragraph up, doh) [03:33:23] MrZ-man: I think http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/53173 did it? maybe? [03:33:30] yes, I found that [03:33:33] k [03:33:52] Ryan_Lane: does seem down [03:33:58] doh :( [03:34:32] nagios-wm going a bit spammy in -tech, never a good sign [03:35:40] GreenReaper: probably should be optional, for some wikis that might want it or something [03:35:59] (per your secondtolast paragraph) [03:36:09] ssh: connect to host svn.wikimedia.org port 22: Network is unreachable :( [03:36:09] I'd be fine with optional. For all I know, some have internal search engines that index it and actually find that useful. [03:36:44] but major WWW search engines? I highly doubt it, and for our impelmentation, it's worse than useless since the keywords we use are already there. [04:45:20] *MrZ-man waits for SVN to come back up [05:05:34] MrZ-man: me too :< [05:37:47] ashley: http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=User_talk:Nike&diff=1305357&oldid=1285321&curid=1046 [05:38:02] ashley: you probably know better than I [05:39:24] lovely, wmf has problems, wikibugs is down, svn is down, ed is down... :o [06:12:49] ahoy [06:13:48] i've a really strange problem with BreadCrumbs and MW1.15.1 (fresh install) http://boogiepalace.hopto.org/stuff/1247724772934323208.png [06:14:14] those "/" are mixed in and I can't debug why [06:14:30] hehe [06:15:13] is this a known bug? it's happening even with BreadCrumbs.php versions that were working previously in another MW install [06:15:51] i'm almost thinking it might be a mySQL/php bug... :-/ [06:16:08] nah [06:16:14] the extension is just broken [06:16:24] really? [06:16:43] Nikerabbit: i thought it's the "quasi-standard-breadcrumb" extension? [06:16:52] it looks like it hasn't been updated for a while... maybe you should contact the author [06:17:08] since svn is down I can't check it right now [06:17:22] yep... it was up 12 hrs ago [06:18:34] rigid: you are not using pretty urls are you? [06:19:16] Nikerabbit: why? not that i know of :) [06:29:02] moin [07:19:02] Hmm, [[#foo|bar]] creates bar, I thought it used to had had a title=""... (and if not,it should anyway) [07:22:28] Wouldn't that disrupt the other anchor if it's referring to a header? [07:42:40] wat? [07:42:40] in MediaWiki, I quite like that every link (almost) has a title="", some sites only title external links, and some only title internal (where is the logic in either of those?), but MW does both... except in some odd cases like this (self link) [07:42:40] very handy for lazy mouseover, when in Fll mode [07:42:40] I'm thinking of id, I think.

[08:57:29] [[media:foo.ogg]] ? [08:58:16] aww but that still goes to the page [08:58:35] [[Special:Filepath/foo.ogg]]? [08:58:48] That should HTTP redirect to the file itself [08:59:07] isn't there also {{#filepath:}} ? [08:59:31] heh [08:59:39] all do slightly different things [08:59:55] Yeah but that'd create an external link [08:59:57] http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/16474 [09:00:17] Test Wikipedia is crazy. [09:01:48] let's do the hampster dance [09:02:02] Sure. [09:02:51] Let's all do the same thing. [09:02:51] oh, RoanKattouw/svip: [09:03:25] [15:27:24] Well, we still have that "invalid title in result set;" quirk. [09:03:25] [15:29:02] svip: Invaild titles are caused by DB corruption [09:03:25] see https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16965 [09:03:25] Yes yes. [09:03:25] Ah yes [09:03:26] this should be fixed in 1.15.1 [09:03:26] svip: repeating for roan [09:03:26] I read roan as moan there fore a second. [09:03:26] Oddly enough, the sentence still made sense. [09:03:29] for* [09:03:32] roan will moan when thrown a bone [09:07:59] *RoanKattouw points out that his name actually doesn't rhyme to those words [09:07:59] more like english Rowan? [09:08:00] But then the folks at the office did pronounce them that way, and I allowed them [09:08:00] *Splarka can't pronounce hollandaise [09:08:00] Yeah a bit more like that [09:08:00] heh, you should've heard Trevor try, that was hilarious [09:08:00] "Ruin" ? [09:08:00] Even more so considering the fact that he read stuff from Google Translate, whose results are sufficiently hilarious when not butchered by someone who doesn't have a clue about Germanic languages [09:08:00] Thanks guys, that really helped [09:08:01] I was totally unable to find it by Googling though :S [09:10:41] Splarka: No. I guess it would've helped if I knew IPA :) [09:10:42] Blame Google. [09:10:42] There is a Wikipedia about it, I think. [09:10:42] article [09:12:54] Man, what is a notable wiki? [09:12:58] I bet it's one about furries. [09:14:16] is that rhetorical or interogatory? [09:14:31] Both. [09:14:48] http://s23.org/wikistats/ [09:15:04] So there are only 20 notable wikis. [09:15:05] Ah. [09:15:07] "Of what measure is a wiki" [09:15:44] you might find some odd divisions there [09:26:14] Divisions? [09:26:14] as in, that first list: all wikipedias, all mediawikis not grouped otherwise, all wiktionaries, all wikia wikis, all wikisources, etc [09:29:56] Oh yes. [09:29:56] I can't compete with that. [09:29:56] We're just a lousy niche wiki. [09:29:56] very odd that wikifur is split from 'mediawikis', maybe there is like a 9 wiki threshhold [09:29:56] Can't compete with the Private MediaWikis either! [09:29:56] We only have 1378 good articles. [09:29:57] I think. [09:29:57] did you opt in to s23? [09:29:57] I did not. [09:29:57] I am a bit surprised about the fact that Futurama gets so little interest. [09:29:57] I had expected more. [09:29:57] I mean, many memes have developed out of Futurama.

[09:33:24] the logs only go up to [09:15:44] you might find some odd divisions there [09:33:24] OverlordQ: mwbot-clone on standby, maybe [09:33:24] O_O DUN [09:33:24] *Splarka casts Summon Flexo [09:33:24] huh, it just got another line [09:33:25] so maybe it is just lagging [09:33:25] *Nikerabbit casts Splarka [09:33:25] eeeeeee I'm flying! [09:33:25] Do you ever visit our wiki, Splarka? [09:33:25] he visits it every hour of the day [09:34:02] O_O [09:34:02] haha [09:34:02] svip: generally I don't visit wikis except on WMF (and tvtropes) [09:34:02] [mwbot PING reply]: 6mins 42secs [09:34:02] ouch [09:34:11] see the logs: http://toolserver.org/~amidaniel/chanlogs/%23mediawiki/20090716.txt [09:34:21] notice at 09:15 to 09:26 [09:37:19] IRC or toolserver lag? [09:37:19] :D [09:37:20] :( I hate being ill. [09:42:51] hi [09:46:28] uga [09:46:28] i'd like to authenticate to mediawiki with username and password in the URL as POST (or GET for debugging) [09:46:29] how can I do that? [09:49:36] !api | bauklotz [09:49:36] --mwbot-- bauklotz: The MediaWiki API provides direct, high-level access to the data contained in the MediaWiki databases. Client programs should be able to use the API to login, get data, and post changes. Find out more at . For client libraries in various languages, see . [09:49:36] o_o Uhm. [09:50:14] Oh wait, mwbot is slow as hell [09:50:14] bauklotz: Use the API login module [09:50:56] mhh [09:50:56] I already read sth about that [09:50:57] is the api module already "installed" in a standard installation? [09:50:57] Yes [09:50:57] nice [09:50:57] Provided you're not running a stone-age MediaWiki version [09:50:57] no :) [09:50:58] Quick question, how do I edit the shortcut links on the side of my wiki? [09:50:58] Hyphenex: Edit [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]] [09:50:58] *RoanKattouw misses mwbot [09:53:31] another little question, how come something like this does not put 'Google' in the top bar? [09:58:56] http://sardstudios.com/wiki/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar [09:58:56] omit [[]] [] [09:58:56] use ** http://www.google.com.au|Google if you must, but better to refer to a message [09:58:56] like google-url|google and create MediaWiki:Google-url with the link in it [09:58:56] Splarka: I'm not following what you want me to do now, that way I'd not have an auto-redirect would I? [09:59:30] Splarka: I hear TvTropes makes you stupid. [10:00:46] indeed it do [10:01:10] Hyphenex: if you wanna know why sidebar does all it does: http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/includes/Skin.php?view=co&content-type=text%2Fplain [10:01:32] first thing it does is get the 'sidebar' page, and split it by newline [10:01:41] then it discards any lines that don't start with an asterisk [10:02:04] then it cuts each line into two parts delimited by a pipe, any lines without pipe are discarded (as per your google link) [10:02:25] it also discards links that are '-' [10:02:38] then it attempts to get a page named by each of the two parts [10:02:47] * recentchanges-url|recentchanges [10:02:51] er ** [10:03:10] will get the text of MediaWiki:Recentchanges-url for the link, usually Special:RecentChanges [10:03:18] er, for the LINK of the link [10:03:26] and MediaWiki:Recentchanges for the text, something like "recent changes" [10:03:32] if the message does not exist, it goes into literal mode [10:03:57] oh cool.. I think for all I need it to do though, literal mode should be more then ample :). [10:04:03] this does two things for the first part, first it checks if the link starts with wfUrlProtocols(), if so it makes an external link [10:04:04] Thanks Splarka, I'm loving MediaWiki! :D [10:04:06] if not, it makes a local link [10:04:32] ** http://google.com|go see google [10:04:43] or: ** google-url|google [10:04:54] where MediaWiki:Google-url contains "http://google.com" [10:04:57] o_o I know where google is. [10:06:11] hi, where i can fin a list of mediawiki plugins? [10:06:28] You mean extensions [10:06:32] yes [10:06:41] Elektryk91, http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Extensions [10:06:55] Elektryk91: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_Matrix [10:07:09] or that, or http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:All_extensions [10:07:16] Splarka: Shh, you don't know PHP, remember? [10:07:17] And coming soon, MediaWiki_Extensions on Twitter. [10:07:38] thanks a lot ;) [10:07:48] crap [10:07:54] oh RoanKattouw [10:08:11] is "Query based special pages for API" going to give us Special:Log ? [10:15:19] No [10:15:19] That's not a QueryPage-based special page [10:15:19] is there a good way to get non-recentchangestable versions of logs in the API for a specific page? [10:15:19] And we've already got list=logevents [10:15:19] hmm [10:15:19] Use letitle? [10:15:19] I thought that was the recent changes table? [10:15:19] *Splarka looks [10:15:19] guess not, dur [10:15:19] ta [10:15:19] *Splarka had brain fart [10:15:19] svip ^ see? tv tropes [10:15:19] that or the Brains are shooting rays at me, I wish I was my own grandpa [10:15:19] Splarka: Stop with the amount of Futurama references in one sentence! It's crazy! [10:15:29] I'd prefer it if it was even *more* obscure references. [10:17:18] I dunno, Splarka, I suppose transcripts aren't really encyclopaedic. [10:17:24] But we still have transcripts of commentaries. [10:17:38] Splarka: http://theinfosphere.org/Transcript:Commentary:Space_Pilot_3000 O_O [10:18:27] it would actually be more efficient to write all that down by moving stars [10:18:57] Is thi some sort of joke? [10:19:11] this* [10:20:26] wasn't it an obscure reference? or was it so unobscure you're searching for deeper meaning? heh [10:20:43] I suppose. [10:20:50] (also, audio transcripts need time indexes, then it could be used as a subtitle track!) [10:21:04] But you'd need some kind of doomsday device. [10:22:01] Splarka: Well, I have been thinking about that actually. [10:22:14] I did provide time indexes for two of the episode transcripts. [10:36:56] hmm....\ [10:37:03] the sandbox utility.. [10:38:29] is it a standard utility distributed with mediawiki? [10:39:01] what utility? [10:43:48] MediaWiki:Sandbox [10:44:16] O_O [10:44:22] There is a MediaWiki:Sandbox. [10:44:33] ? [10:44:34] i found it [10:44:35] yeah.. [10:44:43] i thought it would be under MyWikiName:Sandbox [10:44:55] didnt realise it stayed under the MediaWiki namespace [10:45:25] silentNinja: There is no such thing as a sandbox utility [10:45:35] And there is also no MediaWiki:Sandbox [10:45:53] A sandbox is just a page saying "Hey! It's OK to edit me all you want!", nothing magical [10:54:05] hmm bugzilla just started sending from a diff email address [10:55:18] splains wikibugs [10:55:57] ok, see that RoanKattouw [10:56:04] p858snake: yes. [10:56:08] Splarka: yes [10:56:18] silentNinja: I already told RoanKattouw elsewhere :) [10:56:35] thought there might be some internals that flushed it [10:56:38] thanks werdna [10:56:39] :p [11:00:21] 03purodha * r53355 10/trunk/extensions/FlaggedRevs/specialpages/OldReviewedPages_body.php: message contains html markup [11:06:28] Nikerabbit: hi, I've replied to the user who asked about Wikia on your translatewiki.net talk page [11:15:48] Does anyone here have an account at experts-exchange.com ? [11:16:04] looking at meta.wikimedia.org's copyright, content that infringes on copyrights will be deleted.... deleting a page keeps it in history? [11:16:15] RoanKattouw: do you want to see a response? or post a question? [11:16:23] I wanna read a response that's locked [11:16:31] send me the url... [11:16:35] want to check something.... [11:16:47] silentNinja: Deleting a page keeps it in history, yes, but only visible to sysops [11:16:51] silentNinja: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Languages/Scripting/JavaScript/Q_23486893.html [11:17:07] Usually visiting via google, and scrolling down works really well ;) [11:17:40] *Splarka mentally removes the dash from their name when seeing the url [11:17:53] (or I transpose it to the left one character) [11:18:00] :o [11:18:07] Splarka: very funny :P [11:18:10] heh, big red finger [11:18:12] (I've heard it before) [11:18:28] so have they [11:18:28] It was even on QI [11:18:32] Reedy: You're right, it's at the bottom of the page in Google Cache :O [11:18:40] RoanKattouw, Its a great trick [11:18:46] There has to be a way for google to index... ;) [11:19:30] im scrolling down now.... [11:19:44] Often dont even need the cache [11:19:52] Just the google referrer seems to work [11:19:58] yeah, normally u get the hidden answers.. [11:20:01] then a looooong list of ads [11:20:06] and then teh solutions at the bottom [11:20:11] yaa :D [11:20:24] always works when clicking from google results :p [11:20:33] didnt realise it didnt work using a direct link though [11:20:46] Heh [11:21:29] http://www.funtasticus.com/20081006/unfortunate-domain-names/ (a few of them are even true, like experts... well you know the rest) [11:23:30] pen island [11:24:18] one of my friends visited that at work [11:24:26] got in trouble since they just saw the domain and didn't visit [11:34:16] pen island is intentional though, i seems. [11:36:48] hi again [11:36:58] login with API works by now, thanks a lot [11:39:17] but next question: after login I get the success-result displayed in XML; is there some kind of redirect-option for the api.php?action=login after successful login?? [11:39:37] bauklotz: No. What could you possibly want to redirect to? [11:39:45] to the wiki main-page?! [11:39:53] The API is intended for use by bots [11:39:57] hmm [11:40:17] I use the api-login from another site where i included the wiki... [11:40:26] You can try the hackish way that will redirect though [11:40:32] yes? [11:40:55] RoanKattouw, wasn't it Sparkla (or Simetrical) that said at one point people will just start using the Api for manual edting? [11:41:00] you could send a POST to the UI too [11:41:04] Exactly [11:41:18] Reedy: needs more GET <3 [11:41:22] POST title=Special:Userlogin&wpName1=username&wpPassword1=password&returnto=Main_Page to index.php [11:41:30] lol [11:41:41] hard to manually POST (not impossible tho) [11:41:59] nono, I think I can POST that... [11:42:02] :D [11:42:14] whats so "hackish" about htat? [11:42:25] bauklotz: my "hard to manually POST" wasn't for you, that was for reedy [11:42:32] that ^ roan suggestion is easy to post [11:42:41] Splarka: k,sry [11:42:51] Reedy: I might migrate to the API if vector becomes default skin, heh [11:42:57] lmao [11:43:02] I quite like it [11:43:08] k, thx so far [11:46:59] vector takes getting use to, but its nice so far [11:49:42] I want a skin I can enable javascript on, and not worry about not being able to DO anything, like copy a link without it being replaced by a javascript href, or triggering an onclick [11:50:19] but everyone seems to equate 'usability' with 'web 2.0 flashy animation' [11:53:26] Splarka: We try to use JS in Vector as little as possible [11:53:35] In fact, there *is* no JS in Vector itself [11:53:38] Only in the toolbar [11:54:02] the edit toolbar? [11:54:07] Yes [11:54:16] disableable? (in such a way that you don't load jquery unless enabled in prefs?) [11:54:16] I still can't download checkuser, anyone else having problems downloading extensions? http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:ExtensionDistributor/CheckUser doesn't work [11:54:20] It needs JS to inject stuff in the textarea when you click a button [11:54:26] (bit moot since mdale is adding jquery to core for uploads, IIRC) [11:54:33] RoanKattouw: do I need in my POST, too? [11:54:34] And it's disableable in your prefs [11:54:42] myabe?? [11:54:49] bauklotz: Possbily; I have no idea [11:54:54] :) [11:54:57] adambro: ED is broked a bit [11:55:04] cause the above doesn't work [11:55:09] adambro, use the svn [11:55:10] I thought Nikerabbit set a sitenotice [11:55:20] adambro, and yeah, quite a lot of people have been reporting it [11:56:11] *RoanKattouw puts it in the server admin log, hopes that'll attract attention [11:56:31] I suppose though, with the image problems recently, its been lower priority ;) [11:56:48] Reedy: okay, thanks, I've been trying to use svn but I'm not very experienced with it, I'm trying "svn checkout http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/CheckUser ." but it comes with " PROPFIND request failed". [11:57:37] adambro: Replace viewvc with svnroot in that URL [11:57:44] Yeah [11:57:53] But the image problems are supposed to be fixed now IIRC [11:57:58] Yeah [11:58:01] RoanKattouw: thanks, I'll give that a go. [11:58:29] yep, that worked, thanks all [12:05:54] Splarka: I'm not a sysop! [12:06:05] *Splarka grins [12:06:10] ya sure? [12:06:24] no [12:06:39] have you silently sneaked me into sysop [12:07:47] Nikerabbit: That would be most unwise. [12:09:10] that would be who ? [12:09:26] adambro: our distrubator might still be broken [12:09:50] seems like it [12:15:44] wtf [12:15:55] Splarka: since when has nowiki been nowiki? [12:16:08] Splarka: what does this output:   and [12:18:26] or &nbsp; and ; [12:18:27] GRR [12:20:18] entities are weird [12:21:03] Your mum is weird. [12:21:22] -&- puts out

-&-

[12:21:36] to escape entities you have to & them, &amp; [12:21:45] Ah. [12:21:48] Just like in XML. [12:21:55] Oh wait, that was hitting. [12:21:58] yes, they are nowiki'd, but they are not escaped [12:22:11] so the HTML is free to parse them [12:22:17] ^Nikerabbit [12:22:32] >_< Wait what. [12:22:35] that is one reason it is /very/ weird to ever have them not escaped in a MediaWiki message [12:22:41] Doesn't MediaWiki turn & into &amp;? [12:22:51] Wouldn't it turn &amp; into &amp;amp; ? [12:23:23] the parser passes them literal [12:23:30] Oh. [12:23:36] >_< Dang, your example was so obvious. [12:23:40] if they are valid [12:23:40] I just confused. [12:23:50] I guess tidy or the sanitizer knows [12:23:51] I thought you have written

-&-

if it had worked. [12:24:04] &zibble; & ->

&zibble; &

[12:24:20] :( No zibble entity? [12:24:24] displays as: &zibble; & [12:24:46] Splarka: not escaped? [12:25:29] and   are very useful [12:28:50] Nikerabbit: they are not escaped, unless something is changed in trunk [12:29:34] or unless you're using a wfMsg call that escapes them (many do.. WHY? what possible reason?) [12:29:38] or if they're invalid [12:29:56] RoanKattouw: FYI: with POST the wpPassword doesn't work somehow. So I needed GET together with &action=submitlogin&type=login [12:30:08] Splarka: wtf [12:30:10] although this is really "hackish" & unsecure [12:30:17] Nikerabbit: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?text=%26%2332%3B+%26nbsp%3B+%26lt%3B+%26gt%3B+%26%2364+%26foo%3B&title=Foo&action=parse&format=jsonfm&uselang=en [12:30:22]

  < > &#64 &foo;<\/p> [12:30:37] see the last two, bad ones that are escaped [12:30:39] Splarka: wfMsg converts those two entities to plain text [12:30:45] everything else is up to the caller [12:31:02] oh. hmm [12:31:17] okay, it converts 32 to space, I see [12:31:24] but nbsp is kept as   [12:31:29] and that hack was added because callers suck :) [12:31:31] those are probably tidy [12:31:46] what does that ^ do on your wiki, Nikerabbit? [12:32:18] Splarka: one newline less [12:32:27] *OverlordQ got something different :D [12:32:41] http://translatewiki.net/w/api.php?text=%26%2332%3B+%26nbsp%3B+%26lt%3B+%26gt%3B+%26%2364+%26foo%3B&title=Foo&action=parse&format=jsonfm&uselang=en [12:33:01]

  < > &#64 &foo;\n<\/p> [12:33:45] OverlordQ/Nike: tidy? [12:34:00] it is a naughty bastard around whitespace [12:34:03] no [12:34:31] http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?text=%3Cdiv+style%3D%22white-space%3Apre%3B%22%3Efoo+foo++foo+++foo++++foo%3C%2Fdiv%3E&title=Foo&action=parse&format=jsonfm&uselang=en [12:34:36] OverlordQ: whatcha get? ^ [12:35:31]

foo foo foo foo foo<\/div> [12:35:38] I don't [12:35:45] right, that is Tidy [12:36:01] poor tidy, eating your whitespace :P [12:36:03] so I suspect it is doing the too [12:36:58] http://www.thedarkcitadel.com/wiki/api.php if you want to play with it [12:38:26] Reedy sounds like a play on needy and read. [12:38:34] But it probably isn't. [12:38:43] lol [12:38:51] my surname + y [12:38:57] Ah. [12:39:10] + y is the cutefier. [12:39:19] lol [12:39:23] mebbe [12:39:29] Well, isn't it? [12:39:30] you should add the hiphopifier [12:39:47] g prefix, but you probably don't wanna be too...er... greedy [12:40:16] The technologifier is e-[], but the hiptechnologifier is i[]. [12:40:27] Reede and Reedi look weird [12:40:36] Nah. [12:40:41] e-Reed and iReed [12:40:47] oh [12:40:48] lol [12:40:50] The [] was a failed attempt to represent the word. [12:41:34] \w+ [12:42:09] Oh yes. [12:42:15] I thought that was whitespace! [12:42:27] \s is whitespace [12:42:35] <_< Sure. [12:43:08] Hm. [12:45:26] hi [12:45:33] o_o [12:45:34] hi [12:45:42] uga [12:45:57] is there a simple possability to display articles only to users which are logged in? [12:46:10] Yes.

[12:50:37] Nikerabbit: Don't rely on the default value? ;) [12:54:03] RoanKattouw: :O [12:54:26] heh [12:54:38] <^David> is $wgUser->updateUser called every time a user logs in?

It is my wiki after all. [13:49:42] so, any ideas, anyone, please...? [13:50:14] dAnjou: Oh, you're using MySkin [13:50:31] dAnjou: You want that to be shown for everyone, not just you, right? [13:50:38] yes [13:51:10] RoanKattouw, why is it markbot, not bot on action=rollback? [13:51:31] Reedy: Because it marks the *reverted* revisions as bot edits [13:51:38] i.e. revs that *already happened* [13:52:00] Oooh, gotcha :) [13:52:01] dAnjou: Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Stephanwehner/myskin.css&action=edit , copypaste the code there and put that in [[MediaWiki:myskin.css]] on your wiki [13:52:30] dAnjou: Then set $wgDefaultSkin or whatever that var's name is to 'myskin' [13:56:56] RoanKattouw: doesn't work http://projekte.f4.fhtw-berlin.de/~s0521788/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page [13:58:15] MySkin (default) (Preview) (Custom CSS) is set in the preferences [13:59:08] Anyone any idea, about my problem ? [13:59:23] http://projekte.f4.fhtw-berlin.de/~s0521788/mediawiki/index.php/MediaWiki:Myskin.css and the code is in there [14:04:33] svip: per roan's suggestion this is less blinky by checking the image first, and also speed adjust by screen width: http://p.defau.lt/?6libWhbih3Jc4r87NYmKbA [14:05:09] forgot to reload, works, thak you RoanKattouw [14:05:25] oops [14:05:51] *Splarka notices some department of redundancy [14:06:16] http://p.defau.lt/?O4PRI1PQEzRQMkMVS0i_cg there, 5a [14:07:52] Splarka: where is that? :o [14:09:52] RoanKattouw: http://theinfosphere.org/Main_Page -> javascript:void(importScript('User:Svip/brains.js')); [14:10:29] er [14:10:36] sorry not RoanKattouw X_X [14:10:39] Nikerabbit: ^ that js [14:10:48] *Splarka is way too tired apparently [14:11:01] Dude it's 7 AM [14:11:11] heh [14:12:09] hello again. Still have that problem with logging into my own wiki. Any ideas how to fix that ? [14:13:33] <^demon> Yay, student loan approved :) [14:16:42] Splarka: A friend of mine have a shirt that reads "Fuck Google, ask me". [14:16:52] Are there any plans to put forward an application for a developer room at FOSDEM '10? [14:16:55] So I was thinking about a counter shirt: "Fuck me, ask Wikipedia". [14:17:36] heh [14:17:52] roberthl: Probably. We tried in '09 and it was denied, so someone'll probably reapply I guess [14:17:57] wrap that in [14:18:51] RoanKattouw: Ah, well hopefully we'll have more success this year. [14:20:28] ^demon, woot, monies [14:20:44] There is monies in MediaWiki? [14:20:46] <^demon> Reedy: w00t indeed. Can't take classes without it :) [14:21:05] <^demon> RoanKattouw: We really need a dev meetup somewhere nearer to me :) [14:21:11] heh [14:21:27] I'm afraid dev meetups in the US will pretty much always be in the Bay Area [14:21:42] ^demon, get WMF to pay for you to go ;D [14:21:50] heinrich_k: what's the problem? 'that problem' doesn't narrow it down much [14:21:56] <^demon> RoanKattouw: Poor east-coast people like me :( [14:22:31] serves them right after Boston and Tampa [14:22:52] and what about the midwest? [14:23:11] svip: Sure, I just cashed a check for MediaWiki services. [14:23:32] lucky you [14:23:43] *OverlordQ wishes he could leverage MW into $ [14:24:18] Of course, it was a Canadian check, so it was practically worthless, but still . . . [14:24:36] *Splarka throws soggy brains at brion [14:25:02] braaaaaaains [14:25:05] hey now Splarka, there are starving zombies in the world that could use those brains [14:25:51] OverlordQ: i stated the problem earlier. Just found someone on #mediawiki-tech who might help me, but thanks for realising... [14:26:07] is it possible to convert a mediawiki page to pdf? [14:26:09] ack, GreenReaper! isn't that illegal? [14:26:23] I mean Mediawiki is practically a munition-grade encryption system [14:26:23] it is basically that i cant log in anymore. It states, i should wait a few minutes, but that didn't change for several hours now... [14:26:32] No, but you have to tell them about it beforehand otherwise they take part of the money away again. [14:26:35] after all, it decodes Wikicode... [14:26:42] GreenReaper: Canadian cheques are close to the same as an American one, if not more! [14:26:54] Besides, it's Canadia. What are they going to do, start an edit war? Phuleeeze. [14:27:10] They could buy the US. [14:27:15] I hear it is cheap. [14:27:19] svip: They're certainly *bigger*, but it's not size that matters. [14:27:38] Heck, they're the second biggest country in the world IIRC [14:28:06] 14:27 < GreenReaper> svip: They're certainly *bigger*, but it's not size that matters. [14:28:09] *werdna takes out of context [14:28:21] hehe [14:28:41] Of course, when it comes to MediaWiki pages, size does indeed matter. [14:28:51] Wait. [14:28:59] *GreenReaper idly pimps https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19761 [14:29:01] Is the Canada article bigger than the United States article? [14:29:20] doubt it [14:29:41] No, US is longer [14:29:42] http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=info&titles=Canada|United_States&redirects [14:29:52] It does have more ", eh.", but they're easily compressible. [14:30:02] However, Canada is featured. [14:30:03] afk [14:30:30] Wait. The article on United States has never been featured? [14:30:32] and George W Bush is even larger [14:30:35] Woosh. [14:30:40] *^demon puts wikibugs dead and decaying body in front of brion. Can you bring him back to life? [14:30:42] It was never promoted. [14:30:53] It has been a candidate five times. [14:30:54] ^demon: aZaFred is going to [14:31:09] is it possible to convert a mediawiki page to pdf or odt? [14:31:10] Including most recently this June 27th [14:31:14] GreenReaper: Of course not, everyone is scared of being too American centric.

[14:31:28] We want to appear INTERNATIONAL. [14:31:33] >:| Damn foreigners! [14:31:43] <^demon> svip: OHNOS! Enwiki has US bias! [14:31:48] I think it's more that it's a hard topic and we have a lot of people who think it could be better. [14:31:58] ^demon: Exactly. [14:32:05] For the record. [14:32:09] Obscure topics are easier because there are fewer people who feel they're qualified to think it sucks. ;-) [14:32:12] dawiki has HUGE Denmark bias. [14:32:14] Like Canada. [14:32:24] You hate Canada, eh? [14:32:42] I have family there. :-) [14:32:44] *OverlordQ goes to nominate Montana as FA since nobody lives up there to dispute it [14:32:49] svip: Yeah, but Danish is only an official language in Denmark. English is spoken in many more countries [14:33:01] RoanKattouw: Well, you know the solution then. [14:35:04] What, learn Danish? [14:35:10] Well. [14:35:13] <^demon> GreenReaper: I'm perfectly willing to fix 19761, as long as there's consensus to remove it. [14:35:22] Make Danish the official language in more countries, RoanKattouw. [14:35:34] <^demon> OverlordQ: Irony, my dad actually has some cousins in Montana. I can't remember their names though. [14:37:24] Hi, I've just started a fresh install of mediawiki 1.15.1 and the config/index.php installation page offers only SQLite as the database type - however I was of the understanding ( and have organised) a MySQL database to use. how can I enable mysql as an option? [14:37:29] yea my grandpa lives up there [14:37:54] PC_Nerd101: make sure the mysql extension is loaded/enabled [14:38:04] as in from php? [14:38:09] Yes [14:38:31] it is definately enabled, I'm running multiple other joomla sites on the same server that are using mysql5/php5 [14:38:41] <^demon> OverlordQ: zomg what if we're related (albeit indirectly)? [14:38:52] <^demon> I figure there's about 4 people in Montana, so they must be related. [14:39:15] be scary but doubt it, he moved up there away from family :) [14:41:42] <^demon> I can haz code review? http://anyonecanedit.org/misc/maintenance-work.patch :p [14:42:05] <^demon> All 452k of it :) [14:42:55] O_o that's ratherlarge [14:43:08] <^demon> 14100-ish lines. [14:44:16] <^demon> I'm just waiting for trunk to be sane again, really. [14:47:21] hmm, this is really strange [14:47:33] $wgUser is being unstubbed quite a few times. [14:49:28] <^demon> Odd, indeed. [14:49:47] any suggestions on enabling MySQL? [14:54:42] PC_Nerd101: what OS? [14:55:07] ubuntu 8.04, custom php/apache/mysql compile [14:55:25] make absolutely sure you compiled with mysql support [14:55:40] add a PHP script die( var_dump( function_exists( 'mysql_connect' ) ) ); [14:55:40] as in compiled php with mysql(i) support? [14:55:43] and tell us what the output is [14:55:46] yes [14:56:00] mysql, *not* mysqli [14:56:07] ok... just a moment [14:56:27] hey, im using mediawiki 1.13 and want to connect via the perl api bindings. when i connect to the api.php site, im getting the following error message: [14:57:29] Unable to decode content returned by https://some-wiki-installation.bla/api.php - Unknown content encoding?

[15:10:43] No, why would it be? [15:10:58] I just thought the token HAD to be left [15:11:00] *Last [15:11:03] or is just after text? [15:11:08] Doesn't have to be, but it's safest [15:11:24] If somehow stuff gets cut off, you're sure the token will be cut off too and your save will fail [15:12:24] RoanKattouw: ok, ill recheck this.

[15:23:48] committed half a rev of TorBlock [15:24:43] robertson: Dunno exactly, but if you're gonna upgrade you might as well upgrade straight to 1.15.1 [15:24:49] *RoanKattouw looks for the version [15:25:27] RoanKattouw: right, I'm just curious [15:25:57] 03werdna * r53360 10/trunk/extensions/TorBlock/TorBlock.php: Revert accidental commit to TorBlock.php from r53359 [15:26:14] robertson: Looks like it was fixed between 1.14 and 1.15 [15:27:08] RoanKattouw: ok, i get the message even when im trying to login [15:27:09] in the pywikipedia bot documentation, they talk about "copy[ing] the master help page correctly."

[16:04:55] I did document the purpose at least [16:05:00] <^demon> MrZ-man: getDBname() gets the actual database name. getDBtype() rubs me the wrong way. [16:06:25] <^demon> MrZ-man: Also, could probably make the DatabaseBase method abstract. All children need to implement a human-readable name. [16:07:03] that's what I mean - getDBname() returns the datbase name, getName() returns the server type? That seems like it would be more confusing [16:07:23] <^demon> I guess.

That being said I've closed like 15-20 bugs in the last 2 days. [17:11:57] <^demon> So I'm doing my part. [17:12:01] Last week Trevor and I closed 50 bugs together, and even then the bug count rose [17:12:26] it's officially an infestation!

[18:27:18] That doesn't mean we shouldn't provide a workaround if it's feasible, but we can't do that if it's not reproducible. [18:27:21] For us, I mean. [18:28:29] <^demon> Simetrical: I'm in total agreement. I've yet to track down exactly what causes the break. If we can figure that, a workaround might be do-able, yes. [18:28:38] This is what WORKSFORME is for. [18:29:20] The responses weren't really correct, though. They made it sound like we just don't care because it's someone else's fault.

[19:15:31] The SVN one, I assume? The sitenotice doesn't actually say [19:15:37] <^demon> Yeah, wmf-deployment [19:15:50] Ah, so not really anything different, then. [19:16:45] Probably wouldn't hurt to toss in a link to the list announcement so people aren't trying to figure out what's different [19:17:25] wmf-deployment branch yes [19:17:33] ideally the only thing different will be the version # on Special:Version [19:18:38] Have you not done it yet? Still seems to be the same number [19:18:54] it doesn't have this commits, am I wrong? http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/53173 [19:19:09] since the logs look fine [19:19:38] Emufarmers_: sound better? http://www.mediawiki.org [19:19:47] (updated the sitenotice) [19:19:55] brion: :) [19:20:06] Emufarmers_: you'll see the new branch ver number on special:version: MediaWiki 1.16alpha-wmf (r53375) [19:20:32] Brownout: since that's a change on trunk, no it's not in the wmf-deployment branch [19:20:41] ok [19:20:48] <^demon> brion: While you're poking the wmf-deployment branch, can you see if r52762 could be merged (it's a regression fix)? [19:20:54] nothing else should be visibly different [19:21:01] yet :) [19:23:03] brion: not to throw everything onto your plate, but could you take a look at the ExtensionDistributor thing?

[19:35:37] Hi guys, i'm still having problems with using import it the api. I can get an importtoken so the user is allowed to import (logged out i get "Action 'import' is not allowed for the current user"). [19:36:01] What goes wrong? [19:36:08] But when i try to import the actual file i get "You don't have permission to import pages" [19:36:33] Simetrical, i found another file of mine i'd edited and needed to copy: Math.php; i'm using a weird latex solution [19:36:52] btw, when will MW get full LaTeX parsing built-in?? [19:37:16] When i take a look at http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/includes/api/ApiImport.php?revision=48091&view=markup it looks like it should only give this message when if(!$wgUser->isAllowed('import')) is true [19:37:20] What does "full LaTeX parsing" mean? Running arbitrary LaTeX code, including function calls and loops that could be used for a trivial DoS attack? [19:37:23] In that case, never. [19:37:25] RoanKattouw : Ah, nice to have you here :-) [19:38:22] Multichil: Or if(!$wgUser->isAllowed('importupload')) perhaps [19:38:23] Certainly not by default. [19:38:35] Could you pastebin the output of meta=userinfo&uiprop=rights ? [19:38:35] Trying to expand the copy to Commons bot. It should import the original history before moving the file over to Commons [19:39:01] <^demon> If antything, the Math support needs removing to an extension. [19:39:05] You're doing transwiki, right, not upload-import? [19:39:15] Yes, i want to do transwiki [19:39:27] Hmm [19:39:28] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/List_of_extensions_to_be_merged_to_the_core#Things_to_split_out_from_core_into_extensions <-- [19:39:47] Multichil: What's the query you're using and what's your uiprop=rights output (pastebin)? [19:40:06] RoanKattouw : Just dumped some data into http://pywiki.pastey.net/117586 [19:40:55] {'title': u'Kenley Station.JPG', 'namespace': '6' is wrong [19:41:05] Use title=File:Kenley Station.JPG and drop the namespace param [19:41:26] In fact, drop the title param too [19:42:13] Although you're right that that doesn't explain anything [19:43:15] RoanKattouw : What if i want to import it under a different name? [19:43:21] Dropping it for now [19:43:35] Can't do that [19:43:39] Import & move [19:43:42] Same for the UI [19:44:09] O right [19:48:46] Howdy. Is there a way to upload a file from the command to MW, bypassing the upload limits and such (as adminstrator)? I've got a couple large files that I don't mind being downloaded, but I don't want to bork around with upload limits. [19:49:29] <^demon> jcw: You can upload them manually and then run the importImages.php maintenance script [19:49:46] RoanKattouw : Bot has import right according to the api [19:49:56] Ah, cool. URL on how to do that? I've not down any manual uploads. [19:50:01] I'm trying to upgrade from 1.12 to 1.15.1 but update.php errors with: Deleting old default messages (this may take a long time!)...PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function addGroup() on a non-object in /storage/web/roms/wiki/maintenance/deleteDefaultMessages.php on line 22" [19:51:04] jcw: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:ImportImages.php [19:51:06] Ah, by upload manually you mean just put them on the local server somewhere the importImage script can get to it? [19:51:35] robertson, are you sure you copied all the files correctly? Try re-copying them. [19:51:55] <^demon> jcw: Yeah. You'd put it on the server then run importImages to add it to mediawiki (rather than using Special:Upload) [19:52:02] Multichil: Sure you're still logged in when doing action=import? Sure it's the same wiki [19:52:06] Cool. [19:54:02] RoanKattouw : Pretty sure, see http://pywiki.pastey.net/117588 [19:54:24] 03yaron * r53377 10/trunk/extensions/ReplaceText/SpecialReplaceText.php: Fixed overcounting by one on number of pages [19:54:41] 03(NEW) Successful Edit Call to wrong page - 10https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19774 enhancement; Normal; MediaWiki: API; (grant.callaghan) [19:54:55] <^demon> Wow, the importImages example is needlessly confusing.

[20:00:43] Multichil: No idea; I can't read Python so that code snippet isn't very helpful [20:01:02] Can you try doing intoken=import first, then uiprop=rights, then action=import ? [20:01:11] <^demon> Emufarmers_: Meh. The script should work recursively anyway :p The example was needlessly confusing. [20:01:23] iwkse: Your server is probably not configured correctly [20:01:34] ^demon: actually, I'm pretty sure it doesn't. Not sure the example did either, though [20:01:38] Unless you wanna spend a lot of time configuring it, use $wgSMTP [20:01:38] RoanKattouw: shouldn't mediawiki use php to send emails? [20:01:40] !wg SMTP | iwkse [20:01:40] --mwbot-- iwkse: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgSMTP [20:01:54] iwkse: Yes, and PHP uses sendmail unless told differently [20:02:02] because I remember needing to write a script to call it for every subdirectory once [20:02:03] <^demon> Emufarmers_: Should as in "somebody should fix it so it does" [20:02:08] :D [20:02:46] RoanKattouw : I'm now getting rights, getting token, trying to import (fail!), gettin rights. [20:03:01] RoanKattouw: with other software i didn't have this problem anyway i'll check the link, thank you [20:03:17] Love of . . . why does git svn fetch apparently check out the entire history of the repository again for every new branch that's created? [20:03:19] *Simetrical stabs [20:04:10] can somebody look at http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/CodeReview/CodeRevisionCommitter.php?view=markup, the line if ( !$redirTitle ) { [20:04:23] is it only me, or is that line totally pointless? [20:04:45] ^demon: if I try to fix it when I get home, I assume I should work off your branch? [20:05:33] Bryan: Isn't $redirtitle undefined at that point? [20:06:27] I think there may be some name confusion between $redirTitle and $redirTarget [20:06:31] <^demon> Emufarmers_: I haven't done anything with importImages yet, so you're safe against trunk. Plus I've got my branch to a clean & stable merge point, which I don't want to botch :) [20:06:55] I thought so two, but look at the second last code line of the function [20:06:58] too [20:07:27] RoanKattouw : Ok. Now did, rights (ok), token, rights (ok), import (fail), rights (ok) [20:07:32] 03yaron * r53380 10/tags/extensions/ReplaceText/REL_0_6_6/ (7 files): Tag for version 0.6.6 [20:07:43] Multichil: That's very weird [20:08:06] hello [20:09:39] Multichil: What wiki is this you're connecting to?

[20:11:50] hello @ all [20:12:08] RoanKattouw: ok [20:12:12] RoanKattouw : I had wireshark running: "MediaWiki-API-Error: cantimport" [20:13:50] don't do that, do the purge yourself before the redirect call [20:14:10] Bryan : Jij wellicht een idee wat er fout gaat? [20:14:17] wie waar wat [20:14:31] Subfader: that is, Article::doPurge [20:14:36] A very mysterious error in ApiImport [20:14:48] Bryan : Trying to get pywikipedia to work with the api import' [20:14:52] Lemme check the rev commons is running, we're all looking at HEAD code [20:15:07] RoanKattouw : Right, that's a good one! [20:15:28] sounds like loss of session data? [20:15:34] Oh wait, most recent rev to ApiImport is way older than the last scap [20:15:43] Yeah, except that in queries after the import, stuff works again [20:16:05] Bryan : When i ask which groups i'm in i get my username and that i have the import right [20:16:10] Multichil: Can you track down which headers your client is sending with the action=import request and pastebin them? [20:16:22] Same for the uiprop=rights one for good measure [20:16:26] can i ask a little mediawiki question of should i post it on the wiki? [20:16:35] Bryan, it already uses $wgOut->redirect($wgServer.$wgScriptPath.'/index.php/'.$title->getPrefixedText()); [20:16:45] hanmac: Ask here, if anyone knows they'll answer [20:16:56] Subfader: Use $title->getFullUrl() instead [20:17:29] kk. it's an old extension i customize [20:17:34] Subfader: but what's the point of doing action=purge if you can just add a line $a=new Article($title); $a->doPurge() [20:17:43] before it [20:18:08] ^demon, you the man. That worked perfectly, thanks. [20:18:17] ok, in wikipedia, i have seen many templates in many languages ... but i can not seen, where the templates get the user information (or the uselang thing) [20:18:31] **tryi8ng [20:19:17] hanmac: Link to an example of such a template?

What other reasons could that error have? [21:24:05] RoanKattouw is it to much work to add it only if there are inner (text-)nodes? [21:24:22] Merlissimo: That's what we're doing right now AFAIK [21:24:38] poke`: did the error change? [21:24:46] The numbers in the error that is? [21:24:51] no, same byte numbers as before [21:25:02] "size of 20971520 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 30720 bytes)" [21:25:02] did you restart apache? edit the right config? [21:25:04] Then you didn't set the memory limit in the right place [21:25:19] yes, phpinfo() is showing the new settings correctly [21:25:27] check LocalSettings [21:25:39] look for the ini_set line wrt memory and comment it out [21:26:20] oh. Didn't know there was such a line in there - thanks :) [21:26:35] Seems to work, but why was the problem only there with red links? [21:26:45] and you know some host free for mediawiki? [21:26:47] just the way the cookie crumbled [21:26:56] For some reason those seem to require just slightly more memory [21:27:48] hmm, okay - thanks anyway, evening saved :D [21:28:10] T.T [21:29:30] and hoe made this site? http://www.pokemon-light.co.cc/ [21:29:32] I want something similar xD [21:29:32] if you originally installed when PHP was configured with < 20 megs the installer boosts it to 20 and puts it in the config [21:29:59] 03(FIXED) Config sync scripts fail to update machines with NFS-less /home configuration.

[21:31:14] that was not directed at you swat16a :) [21:31:15] swat16a: [21:31:19] Oops [21:31:32] was reading the INSTALL file from source. it said i could rename mediawiki-1.15.1 to just wiki. [21:31:33] OverlordQ: it should probably go higher [21:31:33] aaa ok [21:31:54] 32 or 40 would probably be a good default [21:31:55] You might want to look for some free Content Management System instead, swat16a [21:31:58] but here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installing_MediaWiki it says i should not do that [21:32:01] I'm confused T.T [21:32:13] "Do not use /wiki/ if you want to use it as a Short URL."

[22:50:53] TrevorParscal: I think this: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)&diff=next&oldid=302467229 is caused by the new toolbar. But i'm not sure why yet. [22:51:27] how would the new toolbar do that? [22:51:35] misuse of any toolbar could do that... [22:51:51] Well i experienced the same after i recently enabled the toolbar. [22:52:12] hmm [22:52:22] i'm trying to pinpoint it to a browser or something, but it's something with hitting eneter under certain conditions. [22:52:27] enter [22:52:44] it might be a Safari, or perhaps Mac only issue. [22:53:11] Jarry says he's using Chrome - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Mr.Z-man#WP:VPR [22:53:12] if i can find something substantial, i'll open a bugreport.

[23:01:44] TrevorParscal: it is a new toolbar + WikEd issue. The combination is the cause for this behaviour. [23:01:58] ic [23:02:13] I will inform the WikEd maintainer first.
