[06:11:51] What in the hell? https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/core/+/470665/ [06:12:33] Yeah, already reported in a few places :/ [06:12:43] it's vandalism. folks are working to undo it [06:13:32] your commit is still there in the second-to-last patchset and can be restored [06:14:15] Is there a button for that? I will be glad to help and revert all the ones Mill hit of mine. [06:15:54] If I need to redo the changes from git I will have to do in the morning from my work computer. [06:16:02] view the previous patchset in Gerrit, copy-paste the Download → Checkout command from the UI, then `git commit --amend --no-edit` and push for review again [06:16:27] Will do. Thank you. [06:16:46] but there might be a way to actually delete the vandal's patchsets, and our best people are reading Gerrit's documentation right now ;) [06:17:01] (normally it's only possible to delete drafts) [06:21:29] SO says there's no way to undo it, but there's a way to check out older patch set and commit as new. gerrit apparently doesn't have API to delete/rollback revisions, at least externally [06:25:39] Glad they left their calling card. [06:27:23] Might want to take Gerrit offline since they are still activity vandalizing. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/mediawiki/extensions/Cargo/+/411064/ [06:27:29] *actively [07:22:02] i am running mediawiki from inside a docker container, and i want to be able to ban users by IP address. unfortunately mediawiki thinks that everyone's IP address is the default gateway of the container.... [07:22:21] anyone know how i can run make mediawiki aware of the IP addresses of users when running inside a docker container? [07:23:46] khalella_: probably something involving https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgSquidServers and making your proxy send X-Forwarded-For headers [07:24:40] i don't know how it works in detail but hopefully this helps you [07:27:09] Gerrit appears to be down. [07:28:13] yes, it's down for maintenance / vandalism cleanup [07:28:47] Alright, thanks. [08:25:33] Hello, I am installing AdvancedMeta. I uploaded relevant files including LocalSettings.php, and have set according to MediaWiki's instruction. But my screen of the server says "installing" for more than 1 hour, and never stops [08:25:43] How what can I do? [12:14:50] hello all ... I'm looking for a way to replace URLs in a MediaWiki instance. in the database dump, I've noticed some hardcoded URLs containing the old hostname. can I just replace them in the dump and then replace the database with the contents of the dump to fix those URLs? if not, is there any other tool I could use to replace those URLs or at least point out where I have to fix them? [12:15:27] If you replace text in the database dumps, you'll break the revision hashes [12:15:34] !e ReplaceText [12:15:35] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ReplaceText [12:16:04] I'll be happy to just have a bunch of SQL queries that tell me where to fix them manually from within MediaWiki [12:16:37] Why do you have hardcoded urls for hte old hostname anyway? [12:16:40] People not using internal links? [12:16:44] they occur in the text table and in the external_links table so if I can figure out which pages use those occurrences, I'll be fine [12:17:09] exactly, people not using relative links, to be precise [12:17:27] MW also has a special page for this [12:17:27] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:LinkSearch [12:17:29] I'll try ReplaceText, thanks [12:17:36] (for finding them) [12:17:46] and LinkSearch, too. thanks a lot! [12:17:46] I guess it depends how big the problem actually is :) [12:18:36] if I have an SQL query telling me all of the *current* occurrences, I'll be happy. I can just edit until there aren't any [12:18:54] it's not big yet [12:19:34] maybe those two tools will suffice [12:19:49] thanks again [16:12:46] Hi MatmaRex, edsanders . Do you know why are the Decrease / Increase indentation buttons grayed out? [16:13:38] Pressing ':' in the beginning of a paragraph increases indentation, as I would expect, but the buttons are grayed out. [16:13:52] because you're not in a list [16:13:59] ':' is a lie, it inserts a
:( [16:14:16] there's a bug about it somewhere. we don't really have support for editing definition lists [16:34:02] damn i kinda wish this page wasn't so blank: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Autoblock_whitelist [16:34:11] anyone know how i can add an IP address to the autoblock whitelist? [16:34:49] oh i literally just put ip blocks on this page don't i [16:35:22] unholycrab, that's our mediawikiwiki one [16:35:24] but see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Autoblock_whitelist [16:35:48] yea nice. i was looking for documentation but i guess that works [17:58:41] Hi, https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/jijiki/ what was that? addition of mmmm.php to 100 commits [18:01:51] bedah: I believe (but am not 100% sure) it's related to https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2019-March/091769.html [18:19:50] yea i noticed the outtakes, but this was just yesterday and was not mentioned on the MLs (i surfed through the archives) [18:23:04] bedah: That was a misleading behavior of Phabricator that should get fixed hopefully. [18:24:00] ok tanks [18:33:13] Reedy, thanks again for your help. those two tools did the job perfectly, as far as I can see [19:19:45] hi all [19:20:27] ive been trying to get a list of pages by aurthur but cant seem to get this, and have used following [19:20:30] Special:ListFiles&dir=prev&user=Username or Special:AllPages&dir=prev&user=Username or Special:contribs&dir=prev&user=Username [19:21:09] how do i least all pages created by specific user/arthur?
