[00:34:44] Hi there! I'm a designer at www.sandstorm.io and MediaWiki is among the apps we have on our app list. See: https://sandstorm.io/apps/. [00:34:51] We're working on an app launcher grid which will require some nice graphics for each app. Could anyone direct me to highish res graphics for MediaWiki? (preferably >300px) :D [00:36:32] neynah: yeah, hold on [00:39:09] neynah: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:MediaWiki_logo_1.png [00:39:58] MatmaRex: awesome, thanks so much. :) [00:40:38] neynah: there's a more "flat" variant here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mediawiki_logo_reworked_2.svg - you might want to use it if it fits your design better [00:41:28] it's mostly unofficial, but it was used on some t-shirts in the past at least [00:50:21] MatmaRex: ooo. Thanks again. I've made previews for both logo options (and I actually like both) - https://oasis.sandstorm.io/shared/ii1vDW6VJlQ5eSMfFdqEnnd7Dz3xbW0YX5VpyiasEYW. So perhaps MediaWiki folks have a preference. :) [00:53:36] neynah: i think there are as many preferences as there are folks ;) there's actually a ton of variants and modifications, at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:MediaWiki_logos and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:SVG_MediaWiki_logos . the two i linked are the two neatest high-resolution ones, i think. [00:54:40] oh wow! [00:55:00] neynah: i think both are safe, one is derived from the official logo (which is tiny), the other (i recall) was used in the past on things. if you want a data point, i like the official one the most myself. :) [01:00:45] neynah: nice mascot [01:01:11] GEOFBOT: :D ty! [01:02:46] MatmaRex: I'll likely go with the official logo as it's probably more recognizable. (I may have also taken into account your preference for it.) :) [01:03:56] I think he left :P [01:08:08] (wasn't paying attention) [01:08:10] Hehe [03:42:38] Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I have a (probably stupid) question regarding a particular issue I've been running into with a MediaWiki install. [03:46:03] I'm running into an issue regarding templates. More specifically, templates that do not display properly. [03:49:39] Whenever templates are used, the template insists on displaying its underlying code, rather than rendering properly. [03:58:38] LazloPsylus: is your wiki public? [03:58:39] Yes. [03:58:48] LazloPsylus: Can I get a link and example> [03:59:05] http://md.squee.co/Template:RefList [04:02:53] LazloPsylus: dd you copy that from somewhere? [04:03:31] It's the Reflist code that's been there since the site was made a few years ago. [04:03:54] So it dates back a number of MediaWiki versions. [04:04:07] The issue with it cropped up with 1.24.1. [04:06:21] LazloPsylus: not sure off hand, but I would be running 1.24.3 [04:07:14] That will probably be done in a little while. The site's been in a broken state for awhile, so I'm just hitting the bugs as I run into them. [04:08:16] LazloPsylus: moving to .3 from .1 may fix some of those problems [04:09:11] Alright, I'll move that up in priority and see if that makes any difference, then. [05:29:44] hi [05:31:05] if a template had related javascript that it used where would that js file be? [07:26:39] is it possible to test a particular module using qunit test than run the entire test suite? [07:35:45] codezee: yes, provided you have $wgEnableJavaScriptTest set to true. For example: http://127.0.0.1/w/index.php/Special:JavaScriptTest/qunit/plain?module=jquery.tabIndex [07:36:25] thanks! [09:34:42] hello [09:35:08] i'm using mediawiki theme the Vector [09:35:33] but i don't know were to change the background image [09:40:00] i'm using mediawiki theme the Vector but i don't know were to change the background image?
