[11:35:51] jh [16:11:18] any extension authors here? [16:11:56] w0y_someone I have one that's WIP. [16:13:29] w0y_someone: you probably want to ask your question without targetting it to a specific group of people, all of us are going to read it anyway [16:14:13] is there a way to mark files as "linked by Special:myextension/" or whatever so they dont show up as orphaned files, if they are managed by one of our extensions? [16:15:13] we have a heavily extended mediawiki setup and im trying to clean up some of the old code/stuff [16:16:37] so... your extension somehow manage/upload files but they're in the File: namespace like any other normal file uploaded by users? [16:18:59] lets say we have a course: "Objektorientierte Programmiertechniken VU (Puntigam)", students can upload files "there" (= normal File:-upload, but if the file links the course-name, it shows up in the course's tab) https://vowi.fsinf.at/wiki/Spezial:Materialien/TU_Wien:Objektorientierte_Programmiertechniken_VU_%28Puntigam%29 [16:20:29] but because these files are linked by Special:.... they dont know they get linked and show up as orphan files, so basically, even correctly working course-resources show up as broken and we have like 90% orphaned files. [16:21:52] my current workaround is to create a semantic media wiki ask query and list all somehow correct files, what makes them linked by mypage so they no longer show up as orphaned [16:28:46] but this approach seems like a "DOS-me-please" as the pageload of my smw-workaround-page with action=purge takes like 60sec... so i would really like the extension to somehow mark the files as linked. [16:29:01] and delete this page again [16:33:50] basically the question is: can i somehow mark files as linked by xy via extension - and how? [20:56:12] Can someone help me please? [20:56:25] How do I get to the admin page? [20:59:23] Guest80114: There are a variety of admin pages on a wiki, but they're usually linked to from Special: SpecialPages when you're logged in with an administrator account. [20:59:37] How do I edit pages etc [23:25:40] hi, is there some kind of parserfunction or something that can be used to check if a user is admin
