[05:04:23] Hi Niharika. [05:34:09] * Akanksha slaps albinou around a bit with a large fishbot [08:18:14] Hi, is there a way to whitelist/blacklist which websites you can include html from, similar to the way you can whitelist/blacklist which sites you can inline images from? [09:05:10] <[tang]> hello. I did a migration of an mediawiki from on debian server to another. But it doesnt work how expected: The left bar is all normal, but when clicking to a page, only the headline is shown. The central part of any page is all empty. But it behaves like this only in the reading-mode. If I switch to the edit-mode, everything is normal, the whole content is visible. somebody have any idea? Thanx.

A list of related configuration variables is at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuration_settings#Debug.2Flogging [10:36:57] Anyone know an existant bot that can log IRC stuff onto a mediawiki page (e.g. !log restart service, gets logged on a page on my mediawiki site) [10:39:45] ? [11:06:19] Reception123: "morebots" does that in #wikimedia-operations by logging to https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Server_admin_log [11:06:52] andre_ Do you know how i could install that? [11:06:57] onto a server [11:13:22] andre__ ^ [11:17:17] don't know - maybe https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T114365 has some links to some repos? [11:17:24] ok thanks [11:30:19] Reception123: The code is at https://github.com/wikimedia/operations-debs-adminbot [11:30:49] imho, one of the older versions used to be a lot easier to install for third party users [11:32:15] Lcwate : Thanks. Which one? And are there any installation guides? [11:34:33] *Lcawte [11:40:00] Reception123: No idea, and not other than the README and config.py comments - it's a WMF specific bot [11:41:30] ok thanks [12:12:56] Does anyone know of a good way to use an API call to get a list of things which belong to a particular category C, and things in categories which belong to C, and things in categories in categories which belong to C, and so on...? [12:13:17] that is, find all the things which descend from a category at any depth of family tree [12:16:48] /msg NickServ identify 4fyraapor [12:16:53] fk [12:19:36] /msg NickServ SET PASSWORD storaapan [12:19:46] You are not having good day [12:19:51] nope, new irc client [12:20:04] adds spaces in the front :(, but fixed now [12:26:41] Lol CFCF [12:27:09] ;). had to change my paypal pass now :p [12:27:27] not smart [12:27:32] XD [12:28:16] legoktm: I got central auth working with one wiki.. Now how to set up other wikis when my entire site is on an ip because I forgot to try DNS last night [12:28:32] And central auth perms working. Woot woot :) [12:39:14] Yeah, just had to add some settings to LocalSettings.php which fixed the problem [13:24:34] is there a way to add edit summaries for edits made in the past? other than manually editing the db through the CLI, that is, I'd like something nicer [13:37:26] no, there isn't [13:40:26] I don't really need it anyway, was just curious ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [15:13:35] is there a plugin or hook I can use that will let me rewrite the src attribute of image tags for external images? [15:17:19] silly me, RTFM https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks/LinkerMakeExternalImage [15:50:04] hello all [15:51:10] rupirutprouit [15:51:37] dfdfdspu [15:52:09] i have some table of my database with far more than 40k entries [15:52:32] can i delete the entries contained in some of them? [15:53:25] for instance, i have the table fkwaexktcxl10n_cache with 11k entries [15:53:30] can i delete them? [15:56:52] Why do you need/want to? [15:57:21] i consumed my database dedicated space and want to delete useless entries [15:58:19] Nothing is useless [15:58:33] i see but i need to free space [15:59:11] Depending on the table, they'll just get repopulated [15:59:54] uhm not sure can help me [16:00:14] but i have to free them so i can continue use the db [16:00:27] You can truncate the l10n_cache table if you really need to [16:00:48] there are also other ones i should do it [16:00:59] such as? [16:01:40] fkwaexktcxpage with 35k entries [16:02:04] fkwaexktcxrecentchanges with 70k entries [16:02:20] fkwaexktcxrevision with 70k entries [16:02:22] If you delete things from the page table, you'll lose pages on your wiki [16:02:25] Same for revision [16:02:58] fkwaexktcxsearchindex with 35k entries [16:03:13] fkwaexktcxtext with 70k entries [16:03:38] same for text [16:03:43] probllem is that most of the "revisions" were done by bots [16:04:00] searchindex and recentchanges can be removed mostly [16:04:19] maybe i should identify the entries done by bots? [16:04:55] how much space do you have for your db? [16:05:01] and delete them only [16:05:11] 1gb [16:12:39] can i empty them at all? [16:18:36] what about fkwaexktcxexternallinks [16:19:06] fkwaexktcxtext [16:20:55] can i empty the externallinks? [16:21:14] i would like to delete the [16:21:28] "text" entries from bots [16:29:21] so?^ [17:30:28] Does anyone know how to move a wiki from a subdomain to a domain? [17:31:54] Repton, change $wgServer, purge parser cache [17:32:06] (prolly other caches too) [17:32:24] In my LocalSettings.php? [17:32:50] yep [17:45:27] MaxSem I did it I think but how do I now move the entire wiki to the other site so I can delete the subdomain account? [17:46:10] eh?? [17:47:18] I don't want to pay for the subdomain and the domain ones. [20:09:27] So I am having an issue with template:walkthrough pushing the image file to the next line as found of this page:https://wiki.gamepaduniverse.com/wiki/Operating_System [20:09:46] I want it to be on the same line as the text "control" [20:10:02] Template is found here:https://wiki.gamepaduniverse.com/wiki/Template:Walkthrough [20:10:09] thanks in advance! [20:10:27] the image is the green right arrow [20:22:21] lankykong: the most simple solution is to use a table: single row, 3 cells [20:26:20] Vulpix:I dont know about those dimension but a table could work. I also have a CSS issue. I have defined a new class in this template called walkthrough, but it only applying the elements to the first line(what appears in black) [20:26:39] I would like everything to have the black background [20:26:50] but I assumed that everything i did in the template would just fall under taht [20:26:53] but apparently not [20:29:42] lankykong: the images have a "none" attribute, which renders them inside a

, try removing the "none" [20:30:30] rad [20:30:54] Vulpix:what about the CSS issue? [20:31:51] there's no CSS issue,

only wraps the text, not the arrows [20:32:56] so how do I add that entire line with the two arrow and two text terms to be included above? [20:33:35] be sure all the content is inside that div, and not part of it outside [20:34:10] wikitext you and your damn {{ and [20:34:13] }} everywhere [20:34:36] i guess i need to replace }} don't i [20:34:46] lankykong: I consider that {{Rellink}} template useless, or even harmful, since it's hard to debug }} and {{ issues to save just a bit of typing... [20:34:58]

would be more clear [20:35:51] if you don't mind could you point me to a template that incorporates that in [20:36:47] a template that incorporates what? [20:36:53] rellink is just an implementation of the div tag then [20:36:58] that is all the template does? [20:37:06] yes [20:37:09] cool [20:37:14] that clears it up [20:37:17] i am sorry [20:37:23] I used the see also template [20:37:27] on a page on wikipedia [20:37:30] and it used it [20:37:52] so i have just been copying and pasting it and adapting it for all my other template needs [20:38:02] i won't use that design again [20:38:30] thank you for your assistance sir [20:38:32] much appreciated [20:38:51] oh dear... I was supposing that was a sort of syndrome of most English-speaking people... trying to abbreviate things to the absurd... now that seems to be just an English Wikipedia syndrome :) [20:39:28] yw (pun intended) :P [20:42:53] I am basically your average ignorant and unthoughtful American. My spelling isn't too well. And I have a tendency not to check what I type before transmitting a message. ;) [20:46:54] I have no problem with spelling, but ridiculous acronyms with no obvious meaning to someone that doesn't speak English natively (like me) [20:47:20] urbandictionary is incredibly helpful for that, though [20:58:14] Most of them aren't obvious to people who do speak English natively, either [21:02:05] RFC meeting starting in #wikimedia-office re "Overhaul Interwiki map, unify with Sites and WikiMap"
