[02:22:29] you can connect two wikitables, so that they're nicely aligned with one another, with a pipe: [02:22:32] | [02:23:38] but is there any way to do that and have an optional break be allowed between tables? [02:32:29] without the pipe connecting them, the second table will start below the first, regardless of browser width [09:14:42] Hi and big thanks for the awesome Mediawiki. Love it. Got a question, not a problem this time [09:17:24] I searched before blurting my question. This could be part of it or enable it https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Recent_changes_stream [09:17:52] Could I have a wiki where I can see recent changes from more than one wiki? Does a solution exist? [09:20:41] recent change information is stored in a per-wiki database. the best you can do is to emit the changes somewhere else (an irc channel, an events feed) and have multiple wikis sending to that source. [09:37:10] Thank you for the answer apergos. I'd like to showcase all the pro-bono work I do .. I guess that was why I was asking [09:37:14] gotta dash [09:37:16] laters [09:37:20] good luck! [14:44:15] you can connect two wikitables, so that they're nicely aligned with one another side-by-side, with a pipe: [14:44:18] | [14:46:10] but is there any way to do that, but allow the second table to wrap below, depending on browser width? [15:33:42] ornj, why would you want to align two separate tables next to each other? [15:34:07] What's the relation between these two tables, that you want them to be next to each other but not merge their content into one single table? [15:34:24] looks, better illustrating the relation between two sets of data...? [15:34:33] the software must've implemented it for some reason [15:35:34] merging them into a single table actually makes the problem more intractable: i want to allow a break between the two tables, but not force it. [15:36:01] single table means anyone on e.g. a mobile browser has to scroll l-to-r to see the full dataset. [15:37:47] Have you tried "float: left" or "display: inline-block" as the table CSS style? [15:38:03] i have not. [15:40:02] i now see that the two tables i was looking at are shoved inside a bigger table, which i did not notice before [15:40:08] :$ [15:41:26] which is why they stay on the same line [15:41:39] float:left kinda works but aligns 'em wonky :/ [15:44:43] if i do it on both tables they align fine but then everything following is a mess lol [15:44:51] thank u tho :) [16:34:24] Hello? [16:35:17] Hello? [16:36:01] I need to fix an issue with my account or cancel my donation. [16:36:31] I can deal with this through my credit card company, your choice. [16:37:26] Ok, I guess you’ve made your choice. Sorry. [16:40:54] Yeah, absolutely our choice. [16:46:05] Because no one replied in... 3 minutes? [16:46:11] In the wrong forum [16:46:14] * Reedy looks for popcorn [16:49:51] * apergos passes Reedy a beer to wash it down with [21:46:00] ho boy [21:56:27] ? [21:57:48] er... hello? [21:58:11] bewb: anything MediaWiki related we could help with? [22:43:14] andre__ yes as a matter of fact! [22:43:25] i've got a shit ton of spam pages [22:43:40] i'm assuming pages that are not linked in are what are refered to as orphaned pages [22:44:03] pages that are created but not referenced in any other page [22:44:59] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Combating_spam [22:46:27] oh yeah i've read that multiple times [22:46:42] the problem is hte pages that already exist [22:47:05] getting a list of 10k pages that are bad is a bit of a chore [22:47:49] i have a list of known good users, but it's in hte hundreds and they've made thousands of pages that are good [22:47:57] so it's a sizable wiki [22:48:10] Is it many different accounts creating pages? Or just one? [22:48:16] thousands [22:48:30] i can generate a list of known bad accounts [22:48:42] with database access [22:50:57] but there has to be a way to delete all those pages more efficiently [22:52:25] There's many ways [22:52:33] It's just the question of how you get the list of pages [22:52:59] i tried blockandnuke and added the known good users to the whitelist but it didn't generate a complete list of bad users, only the bad recentones [22:54:14] Cause they're over 90 days old? [22:55:37] im guessing so [22:55:39] you could repopulate recenchanges with older data [22:56:37] it's not changes to pages [22:56:57] they're just creating standalone pages that don't link in [22:57:04] or have any links really [22:57:19] which isn't harmful at first glance [22:57:25] except it ruins searching [22:58:14] it's thousands and thousands of standalone pages so when you search for anything you're not getting what you want [22:59:20] gotta drive home, bbl. appreciate any advice
