[00:00:13] yup [00:00:15] thanks :D [00:18:59] /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER AaronBeaty_ rqlzwvoentbg [00:19:35] ouch [00:19:38] Hi AaronBeaty_ [00:19:47] Hey [00:22:22] Hi, I'm Aaron. [01:31:50] could anyone suggest why, or where to start, with wikieditor toolbar not showing after upgrading from .23 to .24? [01:34:17] razza: is there an error in your browser error console? [01:34:31] and, when you go to Special:Version, do you see the extension listed? [01:37:00] i do have GET http://.../w/false 404 (Not Found) [01:37:17] and yes, it is listed in version [01:37:50] there is also a TypeError in one of the js files [01:41:57] if i switch off the enhanced editor, the old style loads, but has no icon images. the src for the image it tries to load is src="false" [01:43:42] hrm [01:43:48] Krinkle: any ideas? [01:44:29] ori: Sounds like a path variable is set to false when it shouldnt [01:44:40] wgExtensionAssetsPath maybe [01:44:54] razza: [01:44:58] oh yeah, that sounds plausible [01:45:04] razza: What is the TypeError you get? [01:45:14] razza: Do you have a matching version of the extension? [01:45:40] Be sure to install the 1.24 version of WikiEditor / https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:ExtensionDistributor/WikiEditor [01:54:20] Krinkle: i just reinstalled the correct version, but the issue remains. the type error says 'TypeError: undefined is not a function' and seems to be from the Vector js as far as I can tell. disabling the ext and falling back to the default editor still leaves the editor button pictures missing [01:55:43] wgExtensionAssetsPath is not set in LocalSettings, and the rest of the extensions work [02:00:13] also, the typeerror happens whether the extension is loaded or not [02:08:01] razza: Do you have the latest version of Vector skin? [02:08:15] Note that the skins are no longer part of MediaWiki core. They are now in separate repositories [02:08:21] razza: How did you do the upgrade? Do you use git? [02:08:34] razza: latest->correct (1.24) [02:08:56] hello! sorry to interrupt, i'm from singapore and i'm doing the google code-in task! :) [02:09:04] Krinkle: i downloaded the whole software fresh from the mediawiki site and just replaced images, localsettings, and the non included extensions [02:37:16] I was wondering if anyone was familiar with table-template design. I am working on a rather complex infobox-like template. [02:43:27] RetroGamer: so.. what do you need help with? [02:44:24] I want to make a table with show-hide capabilities within, and show-hide capabilities within those show-hides. [02:45:10] Ahh [02:45:39] What version of MediaWiki is your wiki running? [02:49:38] What version of MediaWiki is your wiki running? [02:50:02] RetroGamer: ^ [02:51:35] [02:53:20] What version of MediaWiki changed the collapsible collapsed classes to mw-collapsible mw-collapsed? [02:54:33] RetroGamer RetroGamer_ ping me when you stabilize. T13 will work. [02:54:34] I don't know. [02:54:49] Oh, there you are. [02:55:05] I am here. [02:55:06] Go to Special:Version on your wiki [02:55:24] It'll tell you what version you're running [02:55:41] 1.23.4 [02:56:08] Okay, iirc that was after the change. [02:56:41] So, {| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" [02:57:15] Then, you're content to collapse. And |} to close the table [02:57:41] Okay, a collapsible. I want that within another collapsible. How would I do that? [02:58:15] Nest tables should work [02:58:57] So, like {| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" {| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" |} |}? [02:59:08] Kinda [02:59:48] Don't forget to define |- for the row and initialize the cell with | [03:00:40] Yes. So, {| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" |- |{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" |} |}? [03:01:59] {| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" |- | {| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" |- | stuff |- | stuff |} |- | stuff |- | stuff |} [03:04:03] Would a template with If parameters be better than a table for each page? [03:04:50] Possibly. Hard knowing without seeing exactly what you have in mind. [03:05:32] Feel free to create a sandbox template and message me on [[en:user talk:technical 13]] [03:05:36] @link [03:05:36] http://enwp.org/user_talk:technical_13 [03:06:46] Heading to bed soon, but I'd be happy to look tomorrow or whenever you're ready [03:07:10] Okay, I will message you when I create that. DO you want it to be a sndbox on my wiki and I give you a link, or a sandbox on Wikipedia? [03:07:57] Your wiki with a link [03:08:13] Enwp is running a different version of the software [03:10:09] I'll be sure to give you a link. Probably wait until tomorrow to check it, since I'll probably take a while... [03:10:20] No rush. [03:10:45] See you, thanks for the help. [04:27:10] hi, could anyone suggest why the js for wikieditor is not being sent properly? it looks like a binary file when viewed [04:35:57] razza: web servers often compress text using a compression algorithm known as 'gzip'. the compression usually happens in the web application or the server software that is hosting it. sometimes it happens in both, resulting in garbled binary data. [04:41:10] ori: i have gzip enabled - i'm viewing the js that is loaded through chrome devtools - i imagine this would show the uncompressed version? all but one file (the wikieditor one, i believe) is showing up in clear text [04:41:58] huh, that's strange. could you copy and paste the URL here? (chrome has a copy option if you right click on the link) [04:44:22] ori: i can copy the url, but cloudflare causes a 405 error if you try to open it [04:44:39] i may try pausing cf completely to make sure it's not doing something weird actually [04:49:03] ok, i think cloudflare was doing something very odd, as it now seems to work (?!). thanks for your help anyway! [04:49:05] that sounds like a good idea [04:49:17] aha! cool. [04:50:00] the original problem was actually to do with old variables from the Extension:Vector which for some reason where stopping WikiEditor from working [04:50:01] if you don't mind me asking, what is the wiki you administer. is it public? [04:51:07] sure, and yes it is - http://kniferound.net [04:51:22] (excuse the horrible redirect) [04:51:49] (it's the next issue to tackle, haha) [04:52:47] it's worth noting [04:52:50] that a vote for a Republican [04:52:52] is a vote for a return to the world of Selma [05:18:44] razza: cool! [05:34:48] ori: thanks (i am razza, finally got around to sorting mirc)! it seems rocket loader is causing the wikieditor script to get messed up, i'm going to report it to cloudflare. [07:06:48] hi [07:35:55] Juandev: hey ! [10:46:22] Really dumb question here...but the documentation isn't clear to me. I'm trying to use an Ajax POST ($.ajax({type:"POST"... etc etc.}); to send data from JS to the server and pick up that data (JSON) in an extension I'm working on. Essentially I want to set a session variable to the data passed through the AJAX POST. But I don't really understand how I should go about picking up the POST data and assigning it. [10:47:12] I think the easiest thing would be to attach a method to my extension API that simply is called whenever the JSON data comes in. I've already written this method...but I'm not clear on how to do the callback of that function... [10:49:38] i.e. where in the Jquery POST do I name the callback function? And for "url," it's not clear to me whether it wants my site's url or the extension's url or the file that contains the callback function. [12:34:14] hello, i love bananas [12:58:46] hey any south Africans here? :) [13:06:20] Hi jasmineseah_17 [13:06:30] I don't remember about soouth africans [13:06:42] We have an association of South African wikimedians though [13:06:52] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WMZA [13:08:57] And you can see one of its most active members quite likes IRC ;) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Slashme [13:49:27] Can someone check and update https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WikiReleaseTeam/Release_timeline please? [13:51:28] If the start data was right, then one week at a time implies 2015-01-21 (R) TAG the code with X.XX and Make the release. [13:52:06] 1.25 is being released this Wednesday? [13:52:25] "someone" seems to be ambiguous here :) [13:52:51] I doubt so, This seems more accurate: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Version_lifecycle [13:53:19] Anyone in the know of what the release schedule is. [13:54:46] Thanks, reverted myself with a link to that. [14:13:04] Hi! I'm from asia [14:16:59] hello BlueJeans [14:20:41] do you know any programming? [14:26:36] In gerrit tutorial while running ssh command $ ssh -p 29418 pratikbsp@gerrit.wikimedia.org in git says bad file no. any suggestions what should i do [14:28:30] I am stuck in it for quite a while [14:28:44] pratikbsp: try this: ssh -vvv -p 29418 pratikbsp@gerrit.wikimedia.org [14:28:50] it will give you debug information [14:30:11] BlueJeans: programming languages? yes, some of them [14:32:46] C? [14:33:42] a bit of C, but I'm not comfortable writting C programs [14:34:10] ooh [14:34:20] then what languages do you know? [14:36:46] JavaScript and C# is what I use daily, and also VisualBasic, PHP, Python, Perl [14:42:33] jasmineseah_17: congratulations for completing your first task :) [14:42:39] Now, if you want, you can continue with another [14:42:59] jasmineseah_17: https://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2014/5799558126764032 is an example [14:55:09] thank you [14:55:31] Vulpix: it says connection timeout on debugging [14:56:20] Nemo_bis: better than LiquidT [15:40:45] Which GNU/Linux distro would you most recommend to run MediaWiki on [15:41:12] use whichever OS you're most comfortable with [15:41:21] I heard the ruby people don't like Debian coz it keeps on breaking their stuff [15:41:40] Anyone know how to "fix" a recent Vagrant development environment which seems to be leaking memory because although it starts off fine... if I leave it running it eventually becomes unresponsive, and vagrant halt doesn't even work. [15:41:43] RobotsOnDrugs: I like any Debian derivative [15:41:52] It's Ubuntu guest on Ubuntu host [15:41:58] which is most of GNU/Linuxen [15:42:08] I'm on Kubuntu14 now [15:42:28] it's nice.. I just keep on accidentally writing 'aptitude' when I mean to write 'apt' [15:43:48] brb; gotta shut down the host to get my guest to shutdown :-( [16:03:21] I has apparently a broken CAPTCHA [16:27:31] i am having problem on running ssh command in git, ssh -p 29418 pratikbsp@wikimedia.org says bad file number any suggestions [16:32:45] pratikbsp: isn't that supposed to be gerrit.wikimedia.org ? [16:33:31] pratikbsp: I said you should ask in #wikimedia-dev [16:33:58] https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Page:The_London_Gazette_19345.djvu/9&action=edit [16:34:10] https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a1/The_London_Gazette_19345.djvu/page9-2329px-The_London_Gazette_19345.djvu.jpg is not suqished [16:34:23] pratikbsp: join that channel, I've asked that question for you there and I'm receiving some responses [16:34:39] yup thats mistyped its actually gerrit.wikimedia.org [16:34:40] https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:The_London_Gazette_19345.djvu/9 is not sowing a squished preview [16:34:56] So why is the PREVIEW in edit mode showing up with it squished? [16:34:57] Qcoder00: ??? [16:35:03] I've done a hard purge [16:35:22] valhallasw`cloud: I think I found another glitch [16:35:24] Qcoder00: I have no clue what you mean. Both look the same to me [16:35:31] They don't for me [16:35:47] The version in the edit preview is compressed [16:36:01] compared to the image shown in image view [16:36:27] I've done a hard purge and all [16:36:42] appears the same to me too [16:36:55] Qcoder00: either I'm not understanding what you mean, or it's your browser. [16:37:03] OK. So why is it showing the 'wrong' version for me? [16:37:11] Qcoder00: with 'squished', do you mean the aspect ratio is wrong, or do you mean it's smaller than the original? [16:37:42] Wrong aspect ratio between the image in the edit preview and the image shown on the Page: [16:37:57] I.e it's correct on the Page: but not in the edit preview [16:38:03] Qcoder00: then it's your browser doing something weird. [16:38:08] I'm willing to assume this is a cache issue [16:38:26] But surely the backend should be telling the browser RE-download this [16:38:46] Qcoder00: instead of assuming, maybe you should either tell your browser to force-refresh, or try a different browser. [16:38:52] I did that [16:38:54] SEVERAL time [16:38:57] times [16:39:17] Even manually wiped it [16:39:50] Backend doesnt tell browser to redownload locally cached images, fwiw [16:40:14] OK So why would be seeing an OLDER wrong version in the edit preview? [16:41:10] Perhaps its in your browser cache? [16:41:18] Qcoder00: let me ask my crystal ball. [16:41:33] I have WIPED the browser cache [16:41:45] And redownloaded and got the same result. [16:42:09] In the edit preview the preview image is compressed Horizontally when it shouldn't be [16:42:29] Well that's odd [16:42:36] Qcoder00: and it's not for us, which suggests it's something that has to do with you. Either your browser, your browser settings, plugins you're using, etc. [16:42:45] Switched betwen two different layouts and it fixed [16:42:47] So... [16:43:02] I will assume something needed to update... [16:43:08] * bawolff on cell phone didnt actually look at image [16:43:09] Not a bug, but an annoyance [16:43:40] On something else.... [16:43:42] qcoder00: did changing layout change resolution of image? [16:43:49] It did [16:44:09] which may (and I say may) have forced a re rendering of the thumbnail [16:44:12] what do you mean with 'changing layout'....? [16:44:38] In proofread page you can have the edit preview place the page scan image to the left or to the top of the edit box [16:44:57] Changing between those , caused the scan image to be re-rendered... [16:45:19] Fxing the problem of the 'wrong' (i.e compressed version being displayed.) [16:45:33] Is that a gadget? I don't see that option. [16:45:54] ProofreadPage is an extension in use at Wikisource [16:46:03] I know what ProofreadPage is. [16:46:17] I don't see a 'change layout' button, though [16:46:37] There is a button in the edit window of Pages that looks like 2 rectangles with an arrow between them? [16:46:50] (In the toolbar?) [16:47:08] If not then I appear to have a diffent setup from the default... [16:47:24] Qcoder00: it probably just caused different width for the image triggering your browser cache to be bypassed [16:47:48] bawollf : Not a bug, just an annyoance... but....fixed [16:47:57] Qcoder00: ah, under proofread tools. [16:47:57] On something else enitrly [16:48:23] What progress on Spreadsheet style editing for tables? [16:48:59] Because doing complex tables at Wikisource is a pain in [REDACTED] [19:03:49] I assume I will need a server with a functional git to keep the various MediaWiki:Extensions up-to-date [19:04:06] the current production server doesn't have a functional git [19:04:21] I like clean installed fresh OS'es [19:04:32] so I'm sorta waiting for Debian8 to come out [19:04:51] Or I could take Kubuntu14 [19:04:54] that's LTS [19:20:17] :) http://ultimategerardm.blogspot.it/2009/09/localisationupdate-is-live.html [22:10:02] in my special extension, I'm creating a DerivativeRequest to invoke ApiMain and create new articles. It works fine with new articles; but doesn't overwrite or create a new revision to existing articles. Help? [22:11:59] calling api internally sucks [22:13:01] i would just use whatever php funtions are there [22:16:09] Ga94KNS2nIgR [22:16:16] sorry [22:16:58] freephile: Cool password bro. [22:17:02] You should change it. [22:20:21] marktraceur: changed... epic fail. post pw in IRC [22:20:43] It happens to everyone eventually. [22:20:55] Unless they die too early. [22:21:02] So count yourself one of the lucky ones! [22:21:11] [22:21:19] at least all my passwords are random and stored in keepassX :-) [22:21:28] Indeed, that's the only way to do it. [22:21:52] As long as you don't keep your password database on a public web server or an unlocked computer [22:44:40] * Schroeder is proud to be part of the first union local in the US to support BDS [22:46:09] Blue Diamond Society ? [22:46:50] He spammed #wikipedia too. [22:46:54] Boycott-Divestment-Sanctions [22:47:07] How nice for you. [22:52:39] Schroeder: I take this as a statement of your interest in improving disambiguation pages -> https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=BDS&action=edit&editintro=Template:Disambig_editintro [22:54:58] Actually, I think you wanted to report an interesting bug in CirrusSearch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=Boycott-Divestment-Sanctions&sourceid=Mozilla-search [22:55:14] ElasticSearch is clearly a disguised Mossad agent [22:55:51] Hm, interesting, I think it's not removing "and" as stopword [22:56:07] Yep. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&profile=default&search=Boycott-Divestment-and-Sanctions&fulltext=Search [22:56:22] Needs some thinking [23:09:24] what's the main file with all the css code in mediawiki? [23:13:17] SupaHam: there's no "main file". there's tons of files. [23:13:56] im pretty sure there's a common name for a file with all the css, i just cant remember it [23:16:02] nope [23:16:10] there is no single file that contains all css [23:16:26] mediawiki's css code is in a lot of different files [23:16:37] some css code might even be found on-wiki rather than in files [23:17:18] okay how do i access common.css [23:17:28] that's MediaWiki:common.css [23:17:31] on-wiki [23:17:51] probably [23:18:34] got it, thanks. [23:26:49] hello? [23:27:17] i have a question for wikipedis [23:27:50] Wrong channel then, go to #wikipedia [23:34:37] wow, how often does that actually work?
