[05:29:49] <comets>	 some new mediawiki update kaput i suppose?

[05:31:54] <legoktm>	 comets: I gave you credit in the bug report :)
[05:32:05] <comets>	 icanhazbugz \o/
[05:32:35] <Ivy>	 legoktm: I wonder if it's the actor work?
[05:32:44] <legoktm>	 That's my suspicion
[05:32:47] <Ivy>	 comets: Nice find.
[05:37:06] <legoktm>	 ughhh
[05:37:10] <legoktm>	 the invalid data is in the db
[05:38:52] <Ivy>	 Woof.
[05:39:59] <Sveta>	 Does mediawiki have a unit test for this?
[05:44:49] <legoktm>	 Apparently not
[05:44:54] <legoktm>	 I found the issue though
[05:45:14] <legoktm>	 comets was spot on that it gets credited to the last person to edit the page
[05:45:39] <legoktm>	 It's being reverted right now though
[05:47:32] <comets>	 \o/
[05:52:10] <legoktm>	 Sveta: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T188479#4009190
[05:52:59] <Sveta>	 Ta. :-)
[07:56:08] <Sveta>	 Does Extension:Nuke have an API?
[08:00:08] <legoktm>	 Sveta: no, but you could string together list=recentchanges and action=delete in a loop pretty easily with the API
[08:00:37] <Sveta>	 For a large number of pages, sounds like slow work.

[16:01:37] <khalella>	 SOO!!!!! i'm trying to construct some XML that can be imported into mediawiki... using this page for reference in creating the XML documents: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Export#Export_format 
[16:02:36] <khalella>	 HOW can i add HTML within the <text> element, without escaping it? ie: don't turn <br> into &lt;br&gt;
[16:03:37] <Reedy>	 Um.. You can't?
[16:03:42] <Reedy>	 https://www.mediawiki.org/xml/export-0.10.xsd
[16:04:43] <khalella>	 Reedy: what am i looking for on this page
[16:04:53] <Reedy>	 I'm giving you a more complete exmaple
[16:05:02] <Reedy>	 Well, specifically, the xml schema
[16:08:45] <khalella>	 <element name="text" type="mw:TextType"/>
[16:08:50] <khalella>	 okay. i don't really know what this means
[16:09:27] <khalella>	 when you say "Um.. You can't?" does that mean that i should be able to? or does it mean that it is not possible
[16:10:03] <khalella>	 its confusing to me because its not a sentence and it contains a question mark
[16:17:49] <Reedy>	 How are you even constructing the xml?
[16:18:30] <khalella>	 is my question crazy? 
[16:19:01] <khalella>	 Reedy: im not exactly sure what im doing here, but so far im playing with python 3 and xml.etree.elementtree
[17:52:48] <harmaahylje>	 hello, I have tables "wikiname_text" in my database. They have colums with prefix 'old', like 'old_id'. Would this indicate that these tables are no longer needed?
[17:56:57] <Reedy>	 No
[17:57:24] <Reedy>	 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Text_table
[18:05:07] <harmaahylje>	 I see, thanks Reedy 
[18:12:31] <harmaahylje>	 right, so the problem is that one of these tables is over 4GB
[18:12:36] <harmaahylje>	 it has some kind of spam in it
[18:13:28] <harmaahylje>	 trying to figure out where I can see all that in the wiki
[18:18:48] <harmaahylje>	 Managed to find out what it is, spam in talk pages, in the revisions (as someone had at some point removed spam messages like so)
[18:19:08] <harmaahylje>	 I wonder if it is possible to clear out the revisions for talk pages?
[18:21:38] <harmaahylje>	 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:DeleteOldRevisions.php <-- seems adequate
[18:25:29] <Skizzerz>	 harmaahylje: if the spam pages were deleted (rather than rollbacked), then you'd be looking for deleteArchivedRevisions.php instead
[18:25:50] <Skizzerz>	 the former clears out page histories of all live (not deleted) pages, so they only have the most recent rev
[18:25:56] <Skizzerz>	 the one I mentioned clears out all deleted pages
[18:32:04] <harmaahylje>	 Skizzerz: Right, I ran DeleteOldRevisions in development, and it indeed didn't delete stuff from the text table
[18:32:23] <harmaahylje>	 Skizzerz: thanks, I will try that
[18:33:53] <harmaahylje>	 hmm, still nothing
[18:35:32] <harmaahylje>	 Skizzerz: do you happen to know how I could get rid of the revision data that resides in the wiki_text table?
[18:36:01] <Skizzerz>	 if it's the current revision, you need to either undo/rollback it or delete the page
[18:36:16] <Skizzerz>	 if it's an old rev, deleteOldRevisions should take care of it
[18:37:34] <harmaahylje>	 Skizzerz: I have deleted all revisions, but I still have the data in wikiname_text table
[18:38:05] <harmaahylje>	 hmm, or perhaps not
[18:38:55] <Reedy>	 the table files won't automatically get smaller on disk
[18:39:19] <harmaahylje>	 I see
[18:39:35] <harmaahylje>	 So how can I make them smaller?
[18:40:02] <harmaahylje>	 I can see that 20k rows are now left from wikiname_text table, but it still takes the original amount of disk space
[18:40:49] <harmaahylje>	 Well I guess it is not that big of an issue, I assume that when you take a dump the size is reduced?
[18:43:05] <Reedy>	 Dump?
[18:43:09] <Reedy>	 The data is not there to be exported anymore
[18:44:22] <harmaahylje>	 yep
[18:46:48] <harmaahylje>	 Thanks a lot guys
[22:34:19] <dannyb>	 Hello, I have questions about setting up MediaWiki on IBM Bluemix / CloudFoundry ... is this the right place to ask?
[22:35:00] <bawolff>	 Yep
[22:35:42] <bawolff>	 or at least its a generic place to ask mediawiki questions. No garuntee anyone knows anything about Bluemix
[22:36:02] <bawolff>	 But we'll answer if we can
[22:42:27] <dannyb>	 OK thanks. Yes this might be too specific, but I was having the same issue as reported here: https://github.com/cloudfoundry/php-buildpack/issues/214 . I followed the instructions suggested but now I am stuck where I get an error saying "You are missing a required extension to PHP that MediaWiki requires to run. Please install: fileinfo (more information)" I've tried adding extension=fileinfo.so to .bp-config/php/php.ini.d/wiki.ini
[22:46:26] <bawolff>	 I guess you should verify that fileinfo.so actually exists. If not you might have to compile it or something
[22:47:31] <bawolff>	 However, fileinfo is supposed to be enabled by default since php 5.3
[22:50:22] <dannyb>	 How would I verify that it exists? Thanks for your help btw
[22:50:29] <dannyb>	 SSH or..?
[22:51:49] <bawolff>	 Yeah
[22:53:42] <dannyb>	 OK thanks
