[02:17:13] Hi [02:17:39] Is it possible to remove http://www.domain.com/Main_page and make it as http://www.domain.com only? [02:21:52] cyberjames: You could probably figure out some kind of short name rule similar to the /wiki/Article rule [02:22:03] I honestly have no idea [03:20:32] !shorturls | cyberjames [03:20:33] cyberjames: To create simple URLs (such as the /wiki/PAGENAME style URLs on Wikimedia sites), follow the instructions at or try the new beta tool at . There are instructions for most different webserver setups. If you have problems getting the rewrite rules to work, see !rewriteproblem [03:20:39] but we really don't recommend it [03:59:51] thanks p858snake|l [19:09:43] how can I delete the move logs for a deleted page? [19:11:51] !revdel [19:11:51] RevisionDelete can change the visibility of revisions and log entries. See for more information. [19:12:53] no, I want to get rid of the log entries completely. no particular reason, it's a private wiki and I don't like it sticking around [19:14:28] You can't delete log entries completely. [19:14:30] Only revdel. [19:15:12] (Not in any way we'll support you with, anyway.) [19:28:43] Krenair: won't deletion of logging entries work? [19:28:57] How do you mean? [19:29:35] just "truncate logging;" [19:29:40] sure no warranty [19:36:28] and probably also recent changes [19:45:37] saper: Well yes, but that will delete all log entries ever [19:45:43] which is probably not what the user wants [19:46:06] We mostly just don't want to be responsible if when the user goes messing about with their database, they do something stupid and delete their entire site [20:12:53] Salutations [20:13:13] would anyone mind if I wanted to put my name in CREDITS :3 [20:14:57] I guess not [20:25:34] bawolff Krenair ty [20:26:25] GEOFBOT np [20:35:41] The definitions of where people go in the credits file has kind of become confused since svn times. Before git, people tended to get added to patch contributor on their first patch, and core contributor if they had commit access to mediawiki core (If I remember correctly) [20:35:51] but now we don't really have the equivalent of those levels [20:43:04] Something like that yeah [20:47:23] bawolff, I would say patch contributors for anyone with a few patches in core, developers for people with that as well as +2 access to all mediawiki things [20:47:48] unless they come from ldap/wmf, then many core patches [20:49:40] well, most people with +2 come from wmf, but that doesn't mean all of them have many core patches :P [20:50:01] Getting +2 access as a volunteer is quite a high bar [20:50:31] then figure getting shell ;) [20:51:12] yes, the mediawiki group in gerrit includes ldap/wmf which I believe has more members [20:51:46] Platonides: Do volunteers even get shell in the modern era? [20:51:53] I got it [20:52:19] Platonides, the purpose of me saying "unless they come from ldap/wmf, then many core patches" was to exclude those who *only* have access via ldap/wmf (i.e. not explicit mediawiki group membership) and haven't contributed a lot to mediawiki core [20:52:46] Krenair: You got it before you started working for WMF? [20:52:56] After, but as a volunteer still. [20:54:15] Some of us have lots of core patches and aren't in the list. ;-) [20:54:34] I haven't heard of anyone getting shell access who wasn't employed by WMF in some capacity in a very long time [20:54:48] I'm not employed by WMF :) [20:55:50] Krenair: Details. :-) [20:56:10] Krenair: Do you mean you're a contractor, or do you really not work for the WMF anymore? [20:56:18] My company has a contract [20:56:40] bawolff: Krenair is a sub-contractor. [20:56:48] Technically. :-) [20:57:11] As a tax thing? [20:57:49] It's complicated [20:58:05] But not really for that [20:58:53] James_F, you probably could/should get added to credits [20:59:04] I haven't heard of anyone getting shell access who wasn't employed by WMF in some capacity in a very long time <-- Same. [21:00:18] James_F: wait, you're not in credits [21:00:25] I thought you were just talking generically [21:02:25] Katie, I don't think there are :P [21:03:08] Krenair: Eh. [21:03:32] bawolff: First patch in 2004 (?5) and still not in the credits a decade later! Tragedy. ;-) [21:05:13] That's weird, yeah. [21:05:28] I thought bd808 had imported a lot of the patch contributors at some point. [21:05:30] I'm in there now. [21:05:41] I think we could get a cabal irc consensus to add you now [21:05:51] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/CREDITS <-- Nice top template. [21:06:15] What was your username in SVN, James_F? [21:06:33] Krenair: It was before SVN. :-) [21:06:42] Ah. [21:06:49] CVS? [21:06:57] Krenair: I believe I e-mailed my patch to b.rion and he applied it to master directly. [21:07:03] Oh [21:07:21] The HTML output of parser for tables was invalid and I fixed it. [21:07:33] My next patch wasn't until 2012, so… ;-) [21:07:40] In Gerrit? [21:07:43] Yeah. [21:08:07] that was a huge gap :) [21:08:31] Hmm, no, 2013. [21:08:56] Okay, definitely Gerrit at that stage [21:08:57] [14:15] (PS1) Brian Wolff: Add JamesF to credits in developers section [core] - https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/233127 [21:08:59] just for you [21:09:05] bawolff: Oy. [21:09:18] bawolff: I really didn't mean to suggest I should be added. [21:09:22] * James_F feels guilty now. [21:09:49] meh, you should have been added a long time ago [21:09:56] All MediaWiki contributors feel deep shame, it's natural. [21:10:26] James_F, but we both thought you should be [21:10:30] :P [21:10:38] * James_F grins. [21:10:41] Oy. [21:15:05] Sorry James_F, jenkins doesn't think you're good enough [21:15:18] Lol. [21:15:26] * James_F laughs. [21:15:43] With what I've done to jenkins and how much I've sworn at it, that's unsurprising. ;-) [21:15:52] how can an update of credits fail jenkins tests? [21:16:05] Poorly-targeted jobs. [21:16:37] failed in 10minutes 1 second. Sounds like a timeout [21:16:39] mediawiki-phpunit-zend FAILURE in 10m 01s [21:16:42] looks like a timeout [21:16:55] eps, exactly what I was saying :) [21:17:17] hmm, appears not [21:17:21] ResourceLoaderModuleTest::testGetVersionHash [21:17:27] Failed asserting that two strings are equal: '"DzmdaKOi"' & '"grPsT5iR"' [21:18:18] It's been doing it for other patches as well [21:18:55] GetVersionHash, eh? [21:22:01] James_F: Looking for your first commit, I came across https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2006-April/022796.html [21:22:32] I like how much less bureaucratic than the current CoC that is :) [21:22:33] bawolff: Clearly the words of a no-hoper. :-) [21:22:37] Yeah. [21:27:30] James_F: I'm guessing the patch in question was a5d6a7db891968c7b94d05, but I'm not sure [21:29:13] bawolff: Hmm. Maybe? [21:29:27] Also, wow, coding standards violations. [21:30:47] wow, the link was to http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail [21:30:58] a 404 due to archives move, though [21:31:45] I looked through the list archive for april 2006, nothing struck out as the likely mail, but I don't exactly want to read all of them [21:31:59] and I don't see an email from you at https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2006-April/ [21:32:10] * Platonides was looking by author [21:32:36] Its kind of weird how everytime I look deep into the mailing list archive, all the issues of today still seem to be the same as ten years ago :s [22:34:05] this might be a little off-topic, but why does an iframe (transcluded from a widget) appear below an infobox while normal wiki content appears to the left? [22:35:28] i'm trying to get an infobox to appear to the right of a widget with the widget taking 100% of the space before the infobox [22:36:09] if the iframe needs 100% of the width, it won't get it until after the infobox has finished [22:39:47] is there some way to push the iframe into a space where it thinks the space before the infobox is 100%? [22:40:12] i've tried doing things with tables, but i can't get it to do what i want [22:44:18] it's not hard with tables, but it's the wrong solution [22:46:04] i'm quite open to other suggestions
