[10:01:43] <bass>	 hello, I have a problem. all article in my wikipedia is empty. I dont found in google, faq etc..
[10:01:55] <bass>	 mediawiki sorry 
[10:02:09] <bass>	 1.6
[10:02:41] <saper>	 what did you do?
[10:04:32] <bass>	 i want a solution for my problem
[10:05:36] <bass>	 I saw a solution, but I dont remember where I found it 
[10:06:47] <bass>	 If I see my article, is empty, but if I see in source code all code is presente 
[10:27:18] <chippy>	 hmm so my user on http://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org was added to Patroled Group. Now, I added a template to a page and it says it has triggered the abuse filter. Can anyone help, Reedy perhaps? 
[10:27:36] <Reedy>	 Patrolled should be positive
[10:28:09] <Reedy>	 10:24, 18 September 2015: Chippyy (talk | contribs | block) triggered global filter 21, performing the action "edit" on File:Lawrence-h-slaughter-collection-of-english-maps-england.jpeg. Actions taken: Block autopromote; Filter description: Spam (details | examine | adjust visibility)
[10:28:14] <chippy>	 ahh okay, that's good. I notice that I'm not in that group anymore
[10:28:59] <Reedy>	 action == "edit"
[10:28:59] <Reedy>	 & added_links rlike "\."
[10:29:00] <Reedy>	 & (!(user_groups contains "sysop"))
[10:29:55] <chippy>	 it had an external link, and I think I solved the captcha :)
[10:37:54] * a__ slaps bluelupo around a bit with a large fishbot
[10:45:34] <chippy>	 hmm
[10:51:11] <FlorianSW>	 hello together! I've a short question: If a user has an IP address, which is listed as an open proxy (e.g. in sorbs.net), and I trust him, would creating an account with ipblock-exempt help?
[10:53:36] <Reedy>	 if the ip is blocked
[10:54:19] <FlorianSW>	 Reedy: the ip isn't blocked in the wiki. It is listed in sorbs.net (which is configured as a DNSBL).
[10:54:30] <FlorianSW>	 *isn't blocked in the wiki locally
[12:41:01] <chippy>	 Hmm, so I'm still being marked as a spammer on http://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org even when I do not include a link
[12:47:12] <chippy>	 Ill try to upload another one
[12:48:55] <Glaisher>	 http://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/88 http://deployment.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/21
[12:48:58] <Glaisher>	 Those ones are really strict...
[12:51:07] <chippy>	 ahh so I was able to _create_ with a link, but editing it, even to remove it...
[12:53:15] * chippy doesn't need links, is happy with current set up, can work around :)
[14:25:26] <chippy>	 even creating something without a link is not possible to edit it
[16:20:12] <Ulfr_>	 Hello all! I've found myself in posession of an obnoxiously large csv file and I need to import it into MW. Near as I can tell I should just be able to conver that into a straight sql query and run it, are there any caveats I need to be aware of?
[16:20:25] * Ulfr_ is extremely leary of poking his database because it's tempermental and under load
[16:21:38] <MatmaRex>	 you mean, as wiki pages? if you don't want to touch the database, you can turn it into an XML file and put it in Special:Import.
[16:24:09] <Ulfr_>	 MatmaRex: No, it's an obnoxiously large number of flash cards for an app I'm allegedly "helping" develop
[16:26:08] <Ulfr_>	 so like, I've got the extension's table all set up and such, I just need to squirt the csv values into the database. Just haven't run vanilla SQL on the mw database other than select statements and such
[16:58:00] <Galaksidekitost>	 Hello, Is there someone i can get help about mediaviewer?
[17:13:34] <FlorianSW>	 Galaksidekitost: just ask your question ;)
[17:13:46] <Niharika>	 !ask 
[17:13:46] <wm-bot>	 Please feel free to ask your question: if anybody who knows the answer is around, they will surely reply. Don't ask for help or for attention before actually asking your question, that's just a waste of time – both yours and everybody else's. :)
[17:14:04] <Galaksidekitost>	 I used the a element(<a>) as mediaviewer opener. But it don't work in Internet Explorer. Exmp. <a href="#mediaviewer/File...."></a>
[17:14:16] <Galaksidekitost>	 What should I do?
[17:18:10] <bawolff>	 Where did you do that?
[17:18:17] <bawolff>	 <a> is generally not allowed in wikitext
[17:18:39] <FlorianSW>	 Niharika: that's a nice feature, wm-bot suprises me all over the time :P
[17:18:52] <Niharika>	 :) 
[17:18:59] <Niharika>	 A better way to do this...
[17:19:02] <Niharika>	 !ask | FlorianSW 
[17:19:02] <wm-bot>	 FlorianSW: Please feel free to ask your question: if anybody who knows the answer is around, they will surely reply. Don't ask for help or for attention before actually asking your question, that's just a waste of time – both yours and everybody else's. :)
[17:19:36] <FlorianSW>	 :D even better :P
[17:19:54] <Galaksidekitost>	 I'm designing a home page for tr.wikipedia. I used in Javasciprt.
[17:30:03] <Nesaa_>	 hi everyone i have cloned the mediawiki code but still i am unable to understand how to install it 
[17:30:12] <Nesaa_>	 could anyone please help me
[17:31:42] <ty>	 Nesaa_: Have you checked out https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installation_guide ?
[17:32:09] <bawolff>	 Nesaa_: if you ran a git clone, make sure to run composer
[17:35:39] <NDK|Cloud>	 Hey everyone I'm just checking will "2G" work in php.ini for setting max file sizes? or should I use some other unit (like 2048M)
[17:37:53] <bawolff>	 I believe it works
[17:37:57] <Nesaa_>	 yaa i was getting an error while running a composer
[17:38:25] <bawolff>	 NDK|Cloud: remember, you also need to adjust the max post size as well
[17:38:37] <Nesaa_>	 i am doing it :)
[17:38:45] <bawolff>	 NDK|Cloud: I've heard reports that stuff usually tends to get flaky after the 1 GB mark
[17:38:50] <NDK|Cloud>	 bawolff I set it for both variables :) I was just making sure the letter would work
[17:39:25] <NDK|Cloud>	 Also, I'm just being extreme. It's a private wiki so I doubt anyone will try to upload a 2G file, but I'm mass-uploading pictures ranging from 100kB-10MB and it's annoying when i raise it to like 4 MB then have to raise it again
[17:39:36] <NDK|Cloud>	 will setting the limit that high make problems even if I don't try to upload something that large?
[17:40:07] <bawolff>	 no, there shouldn't be any problems
[17:40:19] <NDK|Cloud>	 thanks :)
[17:43:13] <NDK|Cloud>	 I have to restart apache don't I..
[17:43:14] <NDK|Cloud>	 sigh
[17:44:44] <bawolff>	 Probably just need to do a reload, not full restart
[17:45:00] <NDK|Cloud>	 oh
[17:45:03] <NDK|Cloud>	 I restarted it anyways
[17:45:06] <NDK|Cloud>	 but it worked so :) thanks
[18:24:48] <sgiratch>	 Evening. Im looking for something ala http://pad.haroopress.com/ or MarkdownPad for WYSIWYG editing locally. Do anyone know of something that works with mediawiki syntax?
[18:28:43] <bawolff>	 !visualeditor
[18:28:43] <wm-bot>	 VisualEditor is a project to create a simple editor for MediaWiki that would make it far simpler for people to contribute to Wikimedia projects. See also https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor and #mediawiki-visualeditor channel.
[18:43:21] <sgiratch>	 Not exactly what I Was after. 
[18:43:28] <sgiratch>	 My goal is making this - https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue/Road_import_%28Norway%29/Progress
[18:43:35] <sgiratch>	 More into something like this - https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue/Topography_import_for_Norway/assignment
[18:44:01] <sgiratch>	 And something like Markdownpad or haroo would make it a bit easier
[18:44:18] <sgiratch>	 I see haroo will come with export-to-mediawiki "soon"
[19:50:21] <Person>	 t
[19:51:47] <Person>	 I'm getting apostrophes display in my wiki page names as &#39; is there any way I can prevent the code being displayed and just show apostrophes?
[19:52:31] <bawolff>	 &#39; is the html entity for apostophe
[19:52:39] <bawolff>	 normally web browsers would convert it
[19:52:46] <bawolff>	 what context are you seeing these in?
[19:53:23] <Person>	 when using https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_Title 
[19:53:34] <Person>	 so I'm guessing it's that extension which is causing it
[19:54:24] <Vulpix>	 !hss
[19:55:57] <Vulpix>	 no he-said-semantic anymore? :S
[19:56:55] <Person>	 hah
[19:57:06] <Person>	 actually I think it's caused through my use of #forminput in Semantic Forms
[19:58:19] <bawolff>	 Vulpix: Lame!
[19:59:57] <bawolff>	 Person: maybe file a bug with that extension asking them to decode html entites, before escaping html
[20:00:23] <bawolff>	 You could also maybe use {{DISPLAYTITLE:...}}
[20:03:52] <Person>	 I dug out something involving {{#titleparts:
[20:03:54] <Person>	 thanks!
[20:04:03] <Person>	 I guess you get a lot of semantic questions heh
[20:08:07] <bawolff>	 Person: Not really. Semantic mediawiki and normal mediawiki tend to be pretty separate groups
[20:08:29] <Person>	 but you had an IRC script anyhow?
[20:10:25] <Vulpix>	 !tss
[20:10:26] <wm-bot>	 ZOMG!! http://goo.gl/e2631 (join #semantic-mediawiki)
[20:18:24] <bawolff>	 Person: Its more of an in-joke
[20:18:48] <bawolff>	 Person: !hss used to link to an image that said "He said semantic. Get Him!"
[20:18:59] <Person>	 ah
[20:19:59] <bawolff>	 !hss is https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/mediawiki/6/69/Hesaidsemanticga2.jpg
[20:19:59] <wm-bot>	 Key was added
[20:20:03] <bawolff>	 !hss
[20:20:03] <wm-bot>	 https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/mediawiki/6/69/Hesaidsemanticga2.jpg
[20:20:09] <bawolff>	 The world is right again ;)
[20:20:28] <Vulpix>	 thanks, much appreciated :P
[20:20:58] <Krenair>	 I think that was deleted deliberately.
[20:22:09] <bawolff>	 If someone deletes it again, I won't re-add it
[20:22:38] <bawolff>	 Usually Katie fights for these types of things...
[20:36:47] <Nesaa_>	 bawolff:ping
[20:36:50] <bawolff>	 hi
[20:37:13] <saper>	 that was quick
[20:37:47] <saper>	 bawolff: why was !hss gone?!
[20:37:54] <Nesaa_>	 h
[20:37:57] <Nesaa_>	 *hi
[20:38:47] <Nesaa_>	 could you please point me what is this localsetting.php in this link https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TitleKey 
[20:39:12] <saper>	 Nesaa_: it is in the directory where you have installed MediaWiki
[20:39:12] <bawolff>	 I've been told (Just now, after I re-added it, not before), that some people consider it kind of in poor taste
[20:39:36] <saper>	 interesting
[20:39:40] <Nesaa_>	 saper:in includes folder?
[20:39:44] <saper>	 de gustibus non disputandum 
[20:39:57] <saper>	 Nesaa_: if you can find your index.php, it's next to it
[20:40:13] <bawolff>	 Its generated by the installer. If you haven't installed mediawiki yet, it won't be there
[20:40:40] <saper>	 ^good point
[20:40:59] <saper>	 if the wiki is not yet running, you need to run an installer
[20:41:01] <saper>	 !installer
[20:41:01] <wm-bot>	 There is no such key, you probably want to try: !install, !noshell, 
[20:41:05] <saper>	 !install
[20:41:05] <wm-bot>	 Installing MediaWiki takes between 10 and 30 minutes, and involves uploading/copying files and running the installer script to configure the software. Full instructions can be found in the INSTALL file supplied in the distribution archive. An installation manual can also be found at <http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installation>. See also: !download
[20:41:23] <bawolff>	 pfft, 30 minutes?
[20:41:30] <bawolff>	 it takes about 30 seconds
[20:41:53] <bawolff>	 once you've downloaded it anyways
[20:41:59] <Platonides>	 bawolff, they may not have it downloaded...
[20:42:36] <Platonides>	 also, don't underestimate how hard it may be for a newbie to fill the database details
[20:43:20] <Nesaa_>	 but installation should be done after downloading all extensions ?
[20:44:27] <Nesaa_>	 i think there are too many links and i am getting confused
[20:44:29] <saper>	 Nesaa_: you can download+unpack extensions before or after the installation; just LocalSettings.php will be created after the installer is run
[20:44:56] <Platonides>	 I would first install a plain mediawiki
[20:45:03] <Platonides>	 then add the extensions
[20:45:14] <Nesaa_>	 i am getting totally confused 
[20:45:18] <saper>	 Nesaa_: what I would recommend - get basic MediaWiki running, without extensions. Then unpack the desired ones one by one, and test your LocalSettings.php changes if everything works ok
[20:45:36] <saper>	 step by step, slowly
[20:45:59] <Nesaa_>	 okay..saper when i go through the page in each section it many link are given
[20:46:11] <Nesaa_>	 do i need to go through all those link 
[20:46:19] <Nesaa_>	 ??
[20:46:52] <saper>	 Nesaa_: take that https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installing_MediaWiki
[20:47:08] <saper>	 you pick up a link if there is something you don't understand or you want or need to know more
[20:47:28] <saper>	 for example, "what is PhpMyAdmin"
[20:48:17] <Nesaa_>	 ooh
[20:48:26] <saper>	 just read it first and try
[20:48:40] <Nesaa_>	 i have clone the core
[21:03:45] <Nesaa_>	 i am following the link
[21:19:53] <Nesaa_>	 saper:after downloading do i need to upload the files as well ?
[21:22:22] <Nemo_bis>	 This bug has been an interesting way to discover a broadness of usage of the extension that I did not imagine https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T101173
[21:23:05] <Platonides>	 Nesaa_, the files need to be in the server
[21:23:11] <Platonides>	 you can download them to the server
[21:23:20] <Platonides>	 or download to your pc and upload to your server
[21:24:39] <Nesaa_>	 okay
[21:39:31] <saper>	 Nemo_bis: free software at its bets
[21:40:00] <saper>	 Nemo_bis: "How many Zen masters does one need to fix a bug in MediaWiki?"
[21:59:56] <Nemo_bis>	 lol
[22:48:40] <emacian>	 does anyone know if something special is needed to make live preview work on 1.25.2?
[22:49:07] <emacian>	 I just installed it on a test machine, and enabled it in a user account, but it doesn't seem to do anything.
[22:50:40] <Nemo_bis>	 emacian: did you open action=edit and click "preview"?
[22:59:24] <emacian>	 Nemo_bis, lemme try that
[22:59:31] <emacian>	 (I think I did)
[22:59:59] <emacian>	 Nemo_bis, I click "Show Preview"
[23:00:47] <emacian>	 Nemo_bis, no luck
[23:02:58] <emacian>	 Anyone have any idea?
[23:05:36] <emacian>	 So, unless I'm mistaken, Live Preview means it changes the preview as you type, right?
[23:06:18] <GEOFBOT>	 emacian: pretty sure it means that you don't have to refresh to update the preview
[23:07:17] <emacian>	 GEOFBOT, does that mean you have to click the push button to update the preview?
[23:08:04] <GEOFBOT>	 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Live_preview si
[23:08:31] <emacian>	 The manual sucks
[23:08:34] <emacian>	 it doesn't say that
[23:09:28] <emacian>	 so, do you know if there's a pluging for preview that updates as you type?
[23:09:33] <emacian>	 *plugin
[23:09:44] <GEOFBOT>	 ahem, "Live preview is a feature...which allows showing a preview...__without reloading the remaining HTML code of the form.__
[23:10:32] <GEOFBOT>	 you could use visualeditor, which is WYSIWYG, basically a huge preview
[23:17:26] <emacian>	 ugh, I hate WYSIWYG editors
[23:17:32] <emacian>	 thanks...
