[00:05:58] <Repton>	 I need help I must of configured my mediawiki sites url wrong in nginx.conf and/or LocalSettings.
[00:06:44] <Repton>	 short url I might add.
[00:10:08] <Repton>	 http://pastebin.com/tU43TcSp
[00:10:38] <Repton>	 My nginx.conf is on the top of that and the localsettings setup is underneath.
[00:11:48] <ofaq>	 for some reason my media wiki site is not showing content. If I click 'Edit' I can see the content?
[00:11:51] <ofaq>	 Any ideas?

[02:17:08] <Joergi>	 Can a revision id (rev_id) be used multiple times?
[02:17:32] <Joergi>	 The question may sound kind of funny, but I see exactly that:
[02:18:08] <Joergi>	 I have a revision in the revision table and I have a deleted revision in the archive table, both having the rev_id = ar_rev_id.
[02:19:04] <Joergi>	 Before I investigate how this happened, I have this question:
[02:19:27] <Joergi>	 Is it to be expected that the same revision ID is used multiple times?
[02:19:30] <Joergi>	 Or is that a bug?
[03:10:18] <cariaso>	 https://test2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Lua_development_environment suggests a non existent TestUtils.lua to provide 'toframe' . Google's not finding it either. Can anyone help me to get this so I have a semi-decent environment to test some mediawiki lua code
[03:12:56] <codynguyen1116>	 I apologize, I can't help you that much since I haven't worked with Lua before :( Have you tried reading https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Scribunto at least?
[03:13:48] <jackmcbarn>	 that module looks like it used to exist on scribunto.wmflabs.org which is now defunct
[03:14:16] <jackmcbarn>	 you can ask a labs admin if they can get it back i guess
[03:14:22] <jackmcbarn>	 in #wikimedia-labs
[09:03:21] <yuppie>	 hey guys, my "Main Page" title is showing as "<p>My_Page_Title</p>"
[09:03:31] <yuppie>	 how do i get rid of the <p>'s???
[09:05:23] <yuppie>	 i think it's because I installed the "MarkdownSyntax" extension
[09:09:52] <yuppie>	 got it
[09:25:02] <Nemo_bis>	 Wow Cenarium. :) https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/272916/

[10:21:14] <ad44>	 is there a way to completely disable the job queue?
[10:31:58] <guest_____>	 Is there a way to calculate estimate of size of mariadb(mysql) db files based on estimated number of pages in wiki, their average size and expected number of edits per page? Thanks.
[11:57:04] <nyuszika7h>	 is it possible to disable RC patrol for pages that FlaggedRevs is not active on (such as userspace)?
[16:22:32] <Nemo_bis>	 Why ditch "edit" https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Help_talk:Talk_pages&diff=0&oldid=1946130
[16:46:12] <atomizer>	 how do i get a direct link to an uploaded file from it's name?
[16:46:41] <atomizer>	 like, [[Media:]] makes <a href...> all i need is just the link
[16:53:01] <QuasAtWork``>	 do mediawiki parser tags no longer support unvalued attributes in 1.25+ ?
[16:53:42] <QuasAtWork``>	 my monaco skin comes with an old extension that adds a <right-sidebar> parser tag and it supported a "with-box" or "withbox" attribute that took no value
[16:54:00] <QuasAtWork``>	 just <right-sidebar with-box> (or withbox)
[16:54:28] <QuasAtWork``>	 this doesn't work in MW 1.26.2; attribute isn't being found at all.
[16:55:48] <QuasAtWork``>	 it does work if I set it to any value though
[16:55:51] <QuasAtWork``>	 withbox anyway
[16:55:56] <QuasAtWork``>	 with-box never works
[16:56:46] <QuasAtWork``>	 scratch that it works suddenly
[16:56:50] <QuasAtWork``>	 cache I guess.
[16:58:19] <QuasAtWork``>	 I'll just have to change the docs for this
[17:05:07] <Trela>	 Is using Tidy($wgTidyConfig) more performant than MW's built in HTML sanitizer?
[17:07:45] <codezee>	 atomizer: you mean you just want to show the image link on the wiki page?
[17:08:00] <atomizer>	 i want to use it in a template
[17:08:29] <atomizer>	 specifically... i want to use webm videos in place of gifs in a clean way
[17:09:07] <atomizer>	 i thought using HTMLTags extension and using a direct link in a <video> tag. Stuck at getting direct link
[17:09:27] <QuasAtWork``>	 starting to seem like the unvalued attribute ever working to begin with was a fluke
[17:10:33] <atomizer>	 and i really dont want to install TimedMediaHandler, i dont need 99% of its features
[17:11:36] <QuasAtWork``>	 ^ that reminds me of a superfun question I had about whether or not you can offload timedmediahandler processing to a separate MW instance and use it as a foreign file repo
[17:12:05] <QuasAtWork``>	 there are references hinting at this being possible but no examples on how you'd even start to setup such a thing :>
[17:12:39] <QuasAtWork``>	 cuz I dunno about most peoples' situations but trying to do video transcoding on my main wiki server would totally destroy it.
[17:12:50] <QuasAtWork``>	 not enough RAM or disk space to handle that kinda stuff
[17:13:55] <QuasAtWork``>	 if only everybody could own their own rack full of dual Xeon boxes :P
[17:14:01] <codezee>	 atomizer: so your use case is, you specify a filename say "xyz.jpg" and you should get its link only?
[17:14:19] <atomizer>	 yes
[17:19:19] <codezee>	 atomizer: if you goto "Special:Filepath/filename.jpg", it'll take you directly to that file, would that help?
[17:21:00] <atomizer>	 oh! yeah that should work...
[17:21:18] <codezee>	 atomizer: there's one more, use magic word {{filepath:filename.jpg}} and it'll only show you its link in wiki page
[17:21:27] <codezee>	 *direct link
[17:21:49] <atomizer>	 oh, thats even better. thanks!
[17:22:19] <atomizer>	 i should read up on magic words sometime...
[19:43:09] <Volund>	 guys I'm having a serious problem here. I just transferred a wiki from one domain to another and many of the links are breaking pretty badly because they're absolute URLs. I've attempted to use ReplaceText to solve this but no dice. I cannot Login to the wiki because the Login button is broken. the Edit button points at the wrong URL (it's missing the subdirectory that should be after my domain name...)
[19:43:16] <Volund>	 WHERE do I go to fix this?
[19:43:30] <Volund>	 http://www.phantasmgames.org/srw/index.php?title=Main_Page
[19:43:41] <Volund>	 have a look at the Edit for instance
[19:43:45] <Volund>	 it's not putting in /srw
[19:43:49] <Volund>	 where do I fix that?
[19:45:59] <Volund>	 oooh
[19:46:00] <Volund>	 I see
[19:48:10] <Volund>	 HAH!
[19:48:27] <Volund>	 Never mind I got it working
[20:01:23] <Platonides>	 you had an absolute url in LocalSettings.php :P
[20:40:22] <Betacommand>	 Does mediawiki have an ability to take a string, (in a defined format) and convert it to a date. Similar to python's time.strptime() ?
[20:45:50] <Matthew_>	 Betacommand: https://secure.php.net/manual/en/function.strptime.php ??
[20:46:39] <Betacommand>	 Matthew_: Yeah, but need to do this on wiki, not in the source
[20:46:57] <Betacommand>	 IE I need to pass one date format and get another
[20:47:03] <Matthew_>	 Ah, ok.  Hm…
[20:47:42] <Betacommand>	 its in a nice uniform format: 20160224
[20:47:59] <Betacommand>	 YYYYMMDD
[20:49:27] <Vulpix>	 Betacommand: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:ParserFunctions#.23time
[20:50:05] <Vulpix>	 only accepts English month names and week days IIRC, though
[21:55:55] <leftfoot>	 ALL I WANT IS TO COMPLETE PURCHASE. MY GMAIL HAS BEEN USED FOR 2-3 YEARS AND I CANNOT GET INTO SYSTEM.
[21:57:02] <p858snake>	 leftfoot: I believe you may be in the wrong channel, Mediawiki doesn't sell anything
[22:00:13] <Betacommand>	 Vulpix: Thanks, that was what I was looking for
[22:00:21] <TimStarling>	 RFC meeting starting now in #wikimedia-office: Standardise on how to access/register JavaScript interfaces
[22:00:23] <Vulpix>	 yw
[22:16:17] <TimRiker>	 I'm looking for an extension to offer an rss feed of articles. I'd like to hit a category page and get a feed of pages in that category sorted by date of last edit.
[22:17:15] <TimRiker>	 I guess ideally the extension would offer arbitrary searches and generate rss feed from that. including "pages that reference a category" as a search.
[22:21:44] <FoxT>	 TimRiker: Semantic MediaWiki
[22:21:55] <FoxT>	 TimRiker: https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Feed_format
[22:33:49] <TimRiker>	 FoxT, hmm. been reading that. I may give that a try. I'm not sure I'll talk the site users into using any of the new tagging options, but perhaps they would like the other features too. thx.
[22:43:10] <TimRiker>	 FoxT, hmm. trying to get a sample search that displays pages in a category. Not finding the right url format.
[22:44:50] <FoxT>	 TimRiker: What do you mean by "right url format"?
[22:45:42] <TimRiker>	 for example, I'd like an rss feed for the pages in https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Developer
[22:46:00] <TimRiker>	 what would the url look like?
[22:47:49] <FoxT>	 TimRiker: https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AAsk&q=[[Category%3ADeveloper]]&po=%0D%0A&eq=yes&p[format]=feed&sort_num=&order_num=ASC&p[limit]=&p[offset]=&p[link]=all&p[sort]=&p[headers]=show&p[mainlabel]=&p[intro]=&p[outro]=&p[searchlabel]=RSS+feed+example&p[default]=&p[type]=rss&p[title]=Special%3AAsk&p[description]=&p[page]=none&eq=yes
[22:48:39] <TimRiker>	 nice! thx FoxT 
[22:51:38] <FoxT>	 TimRiker: Easiest way to get that URL is to go to https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Ask, set your query (e.g. [[Category:Developer]]), select format RSS and Atom feed and hit "Find results"
[22:52:21] <TimRiker>	 I was putting in just Category:Developer and getting a blank page.
[22:54:04] <TimRiker>	 just the basics: https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Special%3AAsk?q=[[Category%3ADeveloper]]&p[format]=feed
[22:54:32] <FoxT>	 Looks good.
[22:54:59] <TimRiker>	 ok. thx a lot. off to install locally and test.
[22:55:13] <FoxT>	 Have fun. 
[23:00:50] <auvajs>	 hi, is it possible to create new user rights for a wm wiki if there is consensus for it? for example "delete-new-pages" right for deleting pages that were created in the last 24 hours only?
[23:03:26] <Volund>	 okay guys. what does it mean when you upgrade from 1.24.2 to 1.26.2 and your fancy skin becomes this? http://www.phantasmgames.org/srw/index.php?title=Special:Version
[23:03:40] <Volund>	 What should I be investigating? because the skin is the 1.26 version.
[23:04:47] <Volund>	 never mind, fixed.
[23:05:00] <Volund>	 apparently one of the OTHER skins was the problem. works now that I disabled all the others.
[23:52:25] <TimRiker>	 hmm. install smw, and extension shows up, but query does not get me any rss feed. not sure what I'm missing.
