[04:16:22] Hiya! just wondering if i can delete a old wikipedia account for privacy reasons [04:17:20] I would like whoever can do it to dm me as i dont want to reveal my username publicly as it has my full name, [04:18:18] HypeRayy: See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Courtesy_vanishing . If you're very concerned you can also try emailing privacy@wikimedia.org [04:19:23] Okay, thank you bawolff. Have a good one. [09:26:03] Hi all. a very general question. Do you have tips how to keep your content uptodate? How you check if it's uptodate? How you motivate your users to keep it uptodate? [10:03:27] sorry for being dumb... what's the best way to copy this for use on my wiki: [10:03:33] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Note [10:03:46] I dont have the .... function [10:03:51] Do I just need the css? [10:05:17] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:TemplateStyles ?? [10:06:02] Can I just put the styles in MediaWiki:Common.css ? [10:06:17] where is Note/styles.css? [10:06:39] K, found it [10:06:58] OK, I'll put that in common.css to save me installing that extension... [10:10:46] {{#if:demo|demo|{{{demo|}}}}}?? [11:36:21] any admin want to look into https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/VeteransCouncil [13:53:50] Hi, I have Flow extension installed. Does anyone know if there is a way to get all links to the talk pages that got archived? [17:28:01] Hi, I have Flow extension installed. Does anyone know if there is a way to get all links to the talk pages that got archived? [18:00:24] Hey all, without editing anything in the extension's directory, is there a way to prevent an extension from autoloading, despite not include()ing or require()ing it, due to `load_composer_autoloader: true` in the extension's `composer.json`? [18:02:29] To back up a bit, I'm asking because Semantic MediaWiki (I know...) autoloads if it exists and I have a non-SMW wiki that SMW loading causes a conflict, so I'd like to prevent it if possible so I can use an identical extensions directory (more ideally a single mediawiki instance in a family config) for all of my wikis [18:14:40] Eh, digging through the source code to includes/registration/ExtensionRegistry.php, it would seem there's no built-in way to avoid the autoloading of extensions with that composer.json value set. [19:56:11] hihi [19:56:35] Is it a known issue that a list to the right of an image doesn't indent properly? [19:57:33] this looks like, [[File:blah.png|left]] \n #text \n ## text etc [19:58:07] the second level li appears at the same indent as the first, but only when right of the floating image [21:37:51] Hello and big thanks for the awesome software. Installing the Extension:MobileFrontend went without a glitch on all wikis [21:39:57] Got a question... I am looking for a way where I can have an extranet wiki. There seem to be more than one way to implement this. So far I've found https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AccessControl and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Restrict_access_by_category_and_group [21:48:01] I have an intrawiki just for me, but I am working in wiki on contents which should be accessible for each client, per client. So I need extrawiki where I can make sure that each customer sees only those pages that are intended for them [21:48:38] Aha.. I c the latter is flagged as "unmaintained" [21:49:32] !cms [21:49:32] Wikis are designed for openness, to be readable and editable by all. If you want a forum, a blog, a web authoring toolkit or corporate content management system, perhaps don't use wiki software. There is a nice overview of free tools available at including the possibility to try each system. For ways to restrict access in MediaWiki, see !access. [21:50:08] butbutbut wikitext is fastest way for human to enter hypertext [21:50:17] at least for me [21:50:30] Heh [21:50:34] It depends how you want to do it [21:50:55] You can lock down the whole wiki easy enough [21:51:10] you mean accidentally? [21:51:17] As long as you don't want per namespace restrictions etc [21:52:27] I want a per-article control over who gets to see it. Reading/browsing https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AccessControl it seems this would do the trick when conffed right [21:55:44] I'd be curious to hear how you get on with that. most my attempts at access control have felt very much like swimming against the tide [21:57:14] (in particular, watch out for leakage via search results. I never found a solution for that) [21:58:05] Hmm... There is this page https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Page_specific_user_rights_extensions [22:02:27] This is not an urgent issue, but I'd really like it that the customers could access the wiki documentation intended for them. I don't need anything fancy, but an extrawiki would be really nice thing for me and my customers. Which would be the most solid one of the pack? [22:14:34] Only 3 of them list support for recent MW versions
