[08:18:08] is there a "working" discord extension for mediawiki? [08:42:39] Is it possible to load templates from a file? Editing these templates within the wikisite is just terrible. :/ [08:43:06] klown: what are you trying to do? [09:10:52] harmaahylje im trying to add a discord widget to my mediawiki [09:47:28] Hello all! I have a question related to Wikipedia and MediaWiki engine. [09:47:28] Check this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft [09:47:29] And its source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft?action=raw [09:47:29] See the logo in source: "| logo = Microsoft logo and wordmark.svg" [09:47:30] And the logo in the article itself: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/96/Microsoft_logo_%282012%29.svg/220px-Microsoft_logo_%282012%29.svg.png [09:47:33] How does it actually works? How can I get the real image URL? [09:47:35] Because this one gives 404 for the moment: [11:23:35] klown: what would the widget do? [11:33:57] i want to place a bunch of images in the ./images/ directory, so that i can import a page and use [[File:images/foo.jpg|foo.jpg]] or similar... somehow dropping the file into ./images/ is not good enough. is there a way to emulate this? [11:34:38] i have 3,000+ pages with accompanying images to import, so uploading them through the web interface isn't an option [11:47:04] khalella: I haven't tried any of these, but looking at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Bulk_upload "Place the files on the server in a readable location and execute the maintenance/importImages.php script from the command line." looks optimistic [11:55:13] nice. i think this works shauno [11:55:26] just have to be sure that im not trying to refer to the images by their full path in the wiki markup [13:58:40] How can you get PageForms display "edit with form" for pages that have a form [13:59:06] I must say that I have read quite contradicting explanations for that [13:59:13] I am no longer sure if it is even possible [13:59:37] You may want to ask in #semantic-mediawiki too. [13:59:52] as per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Page_Forms/Getting_support [14:03:54] Hmm, actually I think that I finally found something that "might work" [14:04:08] something I previously did not notice [14:04:39] that the old syntax used in semanticforms doesnt work anymroe [14:05:31] And it works [14:05:36] andre__: thank you very much [14:34:22] Any tips for finding the name of the "Main_Page"? Wiki is missing Main_Page, but it might have Main_page with another name in the language the wiki is in [15:46:43] harmaahylje: look at MediaWiki:mainpage [17:24:19] DanielK_WMDE: I know you set the main page in there, but it is set to Main_Page. Which is the reason I am looking for the real main page [17:24:34] You know, I can't even read these characters the pages are named with [17:43:19] harmaahylje: add ?uselang=en (or code of some other language you know) [17:43:23] to the URL [17:43:27] !uselang | harmaahylje [17:43:27] There is no such key, you probably want to try: !qqx, [17:44:52] saper: thanks for that - was not aware of such thing, might come handy at some point [17:45:12] However, I doubt that it can translate a user created pages name [17:45:45] so even if I read the list of pages or something, I couldn't spot one saying "main page" in that language [17:46:00] Is there a way to get all pages that are not part of some category? [17:50:11] hmm, I have some nasty problem when editing one Form. It requests a url like this: The requested URL /in…tle= [17:50:21] I guess that should be title= [17:50:33] what on earth could be going on? [17:52:15] broken database migration, mysql encoded in latin1 became utf8 [17:52:43] or, rather, utf8 inside of latin1 database got exported and re-imported [17:52:47] but I don't know [17:53:45] why would that be stored in the database? [17:53:56] isn't it the parameter name of a request [17:55:45] it shows nicely in the request, but when clicking the Referer: part of the request, it directs to that broken url [17:57:43] I get 403 and You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server. - when trying to edit that particular form [17:59:08] The page also gets 403 for api.php during editing [17:59:12] whaat [18:01:30] not on another page I tried [18:05:03] yeah seems like this: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Rwgc5p9eql93tbqh [18:08:06] right, when I remove the whole text of the Form, I get 200 OK [18:08:13] well this is fun. [18:10:36] Hi [18:10:43] hello [18:10:51] I have question related to mediawiki.org [18:11:05] About translation admin right [18:11:28] What you think to be enabled to translation administrators can delete pages in Translations namespace [18:14:17] I don't understand "What you think to be enabled", sorry :( [18:15:41] WHAT THE... I remove one : from the form, and it works. [18:15:55] Apparently it doesnt like "Location:" [18:16:50] andre__: maybe he means: "What do you think needs to be enabled, so that translation administrators can delete pages in Translation namespace?" [18:19:00] harmaahylje: I will fix message. Thank you for trying to help [18:19:42] What do you think about the idea of enabling translation administrators to be able to delete pages in the Translations namespace? [18:21:45] I wish I could answer, but I don't have enough knowledge about wiki permissions and such [18:22:10] harmaahylje: ok. No problem [18:23:21] I'm sure someone has an opinion about that, be patient and lets hope for the best! [18:32:51] Zoranzoki21: maybe ask #mediawiki-i18n [18:33:09] Sveta: I will try. Thank you! [18:33:37] ok [19:46:18] WHAT THE... I remove one : from the form, and it works. [19:46:18] Apparently it doesnt like "Location:" [19:46:31] harmaahylje: sounds like you have mod_security installed and you were tripping one of those rules [19:47:04] if you check the mod_security logs it should say what rule it was, and you can modify or disable it [20:17:49] Skizzerz: it seems so, it is not my server :/ [20:17:58] managed to get me whitelisted, but it is ridiculous [23:16:51] Hey, does anyone has used https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PopupPages [23:16:58] Hey, does anyone has used https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PopupPages? [23:19:09] Hello, does anyone has ever used https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PopupPages ? [23:20:51] yep, we heard you. If you have a question about the extension please just ask [23:25:22] hi Jatapiaro, what's the problem? [23:37:55] hey bawolff I'm trying to use the PopupPages extension but I only get a missing article [23:39:39] [I don't actually know anything about the extension. I just wanted to know what your question is in case I did know. Perhaps someone else in the channel will be able to answer your question] [23:40:02] Is this one: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PopupPages [23:42:16] In theory this should work ` __NOCACHE__{{#popup:WikiMedia:Dummy Dummy |popupID=Extension:PopupPages |cookieName=optout |cookieValue=optout |policy=cookie-out }} ` [23:45:34] Does anyone has ever used the following extension? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PopupPages [23:53:21] jatapiaro, i see. [23:53:29] what happens when you put this code on your wiki page? [23:54:28] It does nothing, just a grey box that tell me that the Article is missing [23:55:14] This is what the grey box shows article missing: WikiMedia:Dummy Dummy
