[00:16:43] <xerxes12>	 how do I request some of my contributions to be suppressed?
[01:01:46] <xerxes12>	 where do I request suppression of some of my edits
[01:01:47] <xerxes12>	 ?
[01:04:26] <xerxes1229>	 sorry I got disconnected: I repeat the question here in case
[01:04:57] <xerxes1229>	 how do I request for some of my contributions to be suppressed? (on the user contribution page for example) thanks you
[01:05:05] <xerxes1229>	 *thank you
[01:47:27] <flyingcat>	 Can someone help with this? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:V3l72t22a46ckdpn
[01:50:05] <bawolff>	 Well the regex compilation error is rather weird
[01:52:05] <flyingcat>	 You mean the 1.32 version  *should* work with 1.31? Wonder why it doesn't then. A detail I neglected to mention is I'm running the wiki on PHP 7.3, which supposedly isn't compatible with MediaWiki.
[01:53:01] <bawolff>	 It might work... i more mean thats a weird error and not one i would expect due to version compat issues
[01:53:20] <bawolff>	 But its probably best bet to make the versions match
[01:54:08] <flyingcat>	 I only tried the 1.32 version because the 1.31 version wasn't working either. I'm back to 1.31 now.
[01:54:34] <bawolff>	 Maybe could be php 7.3 if that changed regex syntax somehow. Not aware of any changes inphp 7.3 in that direction but im not that familar
[01:56:01] <bawolff>	 So anyways, that error is weird but could be unrelated to your issue
[01:57:00] <flyingcat>	 Well, it didn't happen with the 1.31 release. With that, initImageData.php runs just fine but images are still not reported.
[01:57:53] <bawolff>	 I dont have mich useful advice... if this was an issue happening to me i would throw a bunch of var_dump() in the code to figure out why the images are being rejected, but that might require some programming knowledge to do effectively
[02:00:25] <flyingcat>	 Ok. Thanks anyway.
[02:13:36] <flyingcat>	 I got PageImages to work on a 1.31 wiki running PHP 7.2, so I think that's it. Time to downgrade. Joy.
[03:04:15] <evle>	 Hi. I'm looking for a template or extension for managing todo items. To write somethink like {{todo|Describe this more}} and get some sort of dynamic page with list of those todos from every page in a wiki. Everything I google works within one page only. Any thoughts?
[03:10:10] <bawolff_>	 evle: probably want either semantic mediawiki or cargo
[03:20:12] <evle>	 bawolff_: Yes, I already have Semantic Mediawiki installed. I have some thoughts on how to implement that but not quite. 
[10:35:44] <revansx[m]>	 evle: you want MW + SMW + SemanticActions
[10:38:13] <revansx[m]>	 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SemanticActions
[10:41:49] <revansx[m]>	 Semantic actions is actually just a bundle of templates, forms, properties , and pages (and 2 custom namespaces) ..  if you'd like .. Instead of installing the  extension I can provide an XML file of all those pages that you could readily import. Let me know
[13:13:54] <anomie>	 Skizzerz: FYI, RFC meeting in #wikimedia-office happening now.

[14:12:09] <ShakespeareFan00>	 It would be helpful if the Lint detector explained exactly WHERE it found the concern
[14:12:23] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Here I examine the page and can't actually see a mistake
[14:15:23] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Although collapsing the whitespace after <br /> commands
[14:15:33] <ShakespeareFan00>	 made it work
[14:15:59] <ShakespeareFan00>	 If the parser can't cope with simple whitespace it's more broken than I thought
[14:18:07] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Okay the parser is ***ed up when it comes to handling whitespace
[14:18:21] <ShakespeareFan00>	 https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Page:Beowulf_(Wyatt).djvu/28&oldid=9452249
[14:18:35] <ShakespeareFan00>	 It is UNREASONABLE to expect contributors to have to figure this out
[14:47:06] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Hi cscott
[14:47:20] <ShakespeareFan00>	 I've got an annoyance someone should look into
[14:47:37] <ShakespeareFan00>	 https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Template:Lang
[14:48:07] <ShakespeareFan00>	 This is claimed to have a "Stripped tag" being a SPAN
[14:48:14] <ShakespeareFan00>	 when the template is viewed
[14:48:16] <ShakespeareFan00>	 It doesn't
[14:48:25] <ShakespeareFan00>	 because the code inside it works correctly
[14:48:47] <ShakespeareFan00>	 https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:Beowulf_(Wyatt).djvu/160
[14:48:58] <ShakespeareFan00>	 being an example use
[14:49:19] <ShakespeareFan00>	 However, when I converted the Lang template to use #tag: instead of the current approach
[14:49:29] <ShakespeareFan00>	 it refused to work properly
[14:49:42] <ShakespeareFan00>	 when encountering <br>\n combinations in input
[14:50:26] <ShakespeareFan00>	 It would be nice to have ONE logical rule for when a whitespace line-feed or carrige return is needed between the ends of various template inovcations
[14:50:43] <ShakespeareFan00>	 ESPECIALLY for a widely used template like lang is on English Wikisource

[14:52:30] <ShakespeareFan00>	 cscott: In the past I've mentioned related whitespace 'confusion' concerns in various phabricator tickets and nothing has apparently happened about moving towards having ONE DOCUMENTED behaviour
[14:52:43] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Perhaps this is something that can be looked into?
[14:55:44] <cscott>	 ShakespeareFan00: ah, a pet interest of the parsing team!
[14:56:06] <cscott>	 ShakespeareFan00: are you thinking of whitespace in wikitext markup, or in visual editor, or ... ?
[14:56:27] <ShakespeareFan00>	 \n in the input text
[14:56:48] <cscott>	 we call that "start of line" processing, generally
[14:56:55] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Yes
[14:56:56] <cscott>	 when is wikitext in "start of line" context
[14:57:22] <ShakespeareFan00>	 The actual problem with the template is an ugly construction at it's start
[14:57:35] <cscott>	 have you seen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Templates_are_dead!_Long_live_templates!.pdf ?
[14:58:03] <ShakespeareFan00>	 I haven't?
[14:58:11] <cscott>	 you're probably encountering T14974, which was an ugly workaround for T2529 dating back over a decade
[14:58:12] <stashbot>	 T2529: Templates inside of tables appear incorrectly - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T2529
[14:58:12] <stashbot>	 T14974: The newline added to a template, magic word, variable, or parser function that returns line-start wikicode formatting (*#:; {|) causes unexpected parsing - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T14974
[14:58:48] <cscott>	 ShakespeareFan00: i'm going to be co-hosting the tech advice IRC meting in #wikimedia-tech, we should probably continue this discussion there
[14:58:58] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Well I had a related question...
[17:15:34] <flyingcat>	 Anyone around to answer a question?
[17:18:58] <andre__>	 !ask | flyingcat 
[17:18:58] <wm-bot>	 flyingcat: Please feel free to ask your question: if anybody who knows the answer is around, they will surely reply. Don't ask for help or for attention before actually asking your question, that's just a waste of time – both yours and everybody else's. :)
[17:20:53] <flyingcat>	 I'm finding that saving an edit on a wiki I run takes a very long time and causes one or more Apache processes to take up 100% of CPU. I have the Apache-Varnish-Nginx setup Wikipedia uses, and often the edit doesn't appear to save but results in "504 Gateway Time-out".
[17:21:12] <flyingcat>	 I'm sure this is a sign that I'm doing it wrong, but what...?
[17:24:59] <andre__>	 flyingcat, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Uu9w4ov8pitdnxr4 after the useless initial comments
