[14:27:07] hello [14:32:53] I'm new here, how does it work ? [14:38:22] I have a question, why some wiki page can to be translated while other page can't ? [14:43:57] Hi No. [14:44:02] Because translation is set up manually per page. [14:44:15] Hi Leah [14:45:16] Do you know where can I find some help about using it ? [14:52:07] Is it a model ? How can I add it into a page ? [14:52:32] !e Translate [14:52:32] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Translate [14:52:38] No: That's the extension used. ^ [14:52:41] Are you asking about a specific wiki? [14:53:24] I'm asking first for MediaWiki [14:54:47] Okay. The Translate extension is probably what you want. [14:57:51] for example, I would like to translate the "Annoying little bugs" MediaWiki page, How can I add the "translate feature" for this page ? [15:00:06] I don't find any help about it in the "MediaWiki->Support->User Help" [15:20:10] I have found some that I want here https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:Translate/Page_translation_example [15:21:12] but I need an administator permission to be able to activate this functionnality [15:22:32] I don't know where doing my request, are you an idea ? [15:22:56] Have you an idea ? [15:31:39] I have found some informations in the "talk" [15:32:08] I must go here https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Requests [15:32:37] but I don't know how to create a sub-page [15:35:33] Hi No. [15:35:40] Oh, I see. [15:35:46] You want to translate a page on mediawiki.org. [15:35:54] yes !!! [15:36:00] I'm not sure what the process for that is. [15:36:14] Nemo_bis or someone may be able to help you. [15:44:06] ok, thank you Leah [15:46:22] TIL: We have a script named patchSql.php... [15:49:44] No: are you this user? https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Annoying_little_bugs&type=revision&diff=2145412&oldid=2113595 [15:50:51] No: you already caught my attention so there is no need of [[Project:Requests]] [15:52:28] yes, this is the wikimedia page I would like to translate into french [15:53:24] ok, then what should I do ? [15:56:06] No: are you the user who added tags? [15:56:26] yes that's me !!! [15:57:01] Manta Ray DeeJay [15:59:20] ok, there are several mistakes [16:00:54] what do you mean ? [16:01:53] Writing to your user talk so that you don't forget [16:02:53] Do you mean here in the IRC Chat ? [16:03:47] That's done [16:04:30] As I said you, this is the first time I'm using an IRC Chat [16:05:14] What are other mistakes ? [16:05:58] Manta_Ray_DeeJay: see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User_talk:Manta_Ray_DeeJay#Page_translation [16:06:24] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Talk_pages explains what user talk pages are [16:08:12] ok, thank you, I'm reading [17:07:53] Nemo_bis: What do you mean by tvar ? [19:49:14] hi! I'd like to add an entry to the main menu (with a link to a URL) using a REST API (or a command line of some sort). Is it possible ? [20:18:18] dachary: kind of, i guess [20:19:04] dachary: the sidebar is defined by the page called "MediaWiki:Sidebar" on your wiki (editable by administrators), see documentation about the format here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Interface/Sidebar [20:19:13] ah, cool, thanks ! [20:19:47] dachary: and MediaWiki provides a fairly complete API for querying and modifying things, e.g. to edit pages: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Edit [20:20:09] fantastic [20:20:48] there are helper libraries for it in just about every programming language, we have a list somewhere [20:21:11] you could probably even make do with curl and bash, if you had to. it's not "REST", but it's quite beautifully simple [20:26:34] so, I'm trying to set a mediawiki up, and after going through the configuration, and moving the LocalSettings.php over, I only get a simple (Cannot access the database) for the error. [20:27:11] I can confirm that it created all the tables in the database during the configuration, so it could connect then. [20:32:40] Did the grant get run properly? [20:34:00] Yes, when creating the database, the grant ran without errors, I'm able to log in as the user, and see the database and tables created by the config. [23:16:27] How can I re*direct* (NOT rewrite/show 404 page) when a file isn't found? [23:16:50] (lighthttpd) [23:22:09] CoolCanuck: I think you may get better results if you ask a forum/channel about lighthttpd, but feel free to stay here in case someone knows the answer [23:25:41] CoolCanuck: with apache you would add a R flag to the rewrute [23:25:43] *rewrite [23:25:59] don't know with lighttpd [23:26:05] but probably similar
