Hi,
Can you advice me on the easiest way to get a PHP wikitext parser for
manipulating the output of SPecial:export ? I need a tool that allows
me to export to HTML or another format of my choice, and I don't mind if
it's a command line tool.
Thanks.
I just uploaded [[Image:X client server example.png]]. That's a little
network diagram done in Inkscape. So the native form is SVG, which is
highly editable and thus makes some sense as a work to distribute under the
GFDL - the SVG is the source code, the PNG is just a rendering.
But I can't upload SVG. Is there a good reason for this, or is it just that
no-one thought of it?
(SVG is just XML text - I don't know of a way to include malware.)
This goes for other image formats - GIMP, Illustrator, etc. For resources
under a license that allows editing, it would make sense to allow upload of
the source version.

hi everybody,
Is there a way to protect images from defacement
ie upload of a bogus image with the same name as
a valid image? This is a very easy way to make a mess
of things which is what happened on the Greek wikipedia
a day or so ago. Please look at
http://el.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Solare_Planeten99.jpg
for an exmaple.
On a relevant issue how is it possible for an attacker to forge its
true ip address? Can that be prevented.
Thanks

hi,
i'm running a phpbb forum and I would like to integrate the wiki-software
there. however I have some trouble integrating the header and footer of my
phpbb into mediawiki.
so far I tried with putting the entire code of the mediawiki index.php into
an external phpbb-site (with header and footer of my phpbb). it kind of
works ( see here: http://skoliose.net/test-lex/ ) but there is a problem
with the special chars.
depending on the browser, either the spezial-chars of the phpbb-header and
footer don't get shown correctly or the special chars of the wiki-text.
this is the code of the index.php I used
http://skoliose.net/test-lex/index.php.txt
does anybody know how to ! fix that problem or has anybody successfully
integratet an (phpbb-)header oder footer in his wiki? are there any
tutorials which could help me?
thanks,
BZebra

I've been trying to configure mailman to reject non-member posts to
wikiis-l, I've succeeded in making it reject any non-member posts and
send the poster a message saying that hir mail has been moderated,
however what I've not been able to configure is the message sent in
this email, currently it is:
"""
You are not allowed to post to this mailing list, and your message has
been automatically rejected. If you think that your messages are
being rejected in error, contact the mailing list owner at
wikiis-l-owner(a)wikimedia.org.
"""
I set member_moderation_notice in
http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/admin/wikiis-l/privacy/sender to
something entirely different, without success.
I was looking at MediaWiki, and came across this note about rsync being
fairly ineffective (because of the compression).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Database_download#Rsync
So, just in case you weren't aware of it, there is (at least) one
compression program that doesn't have this drawback. There is a gzip patch
implementing a special --rsync (or, in older versions of the patch,
--rsyncable) mode in which it restarts its dictionaries according to the
behavior of a running checksum. This does reduce the compression ratio
slightly (generally somewhere near 2%), but it also results in unchanged
sections being unchanged after compression as well, which means rsync can
skip them effectively. The resulting files are fully compatible with
existing decompressors. Debian's gzip includes this patch (as do many other
distros, I think) and it is planned for inclusion upstream soon.
I don't know how badly gzip fares vs bzip2 on your content, but if it's not
a landslide having rsync work well might be worthwhile...
Hi
I made a new internal version of the plugin:
http://plog4u.org/download/net.sourceforge.phpeclipse.core_1.1.2c.zip
If you would like to install it, be sure to restart eclipse once with
the -clean option to clear the old plugin.xml cache.
New features:
- you can now create a Wikipedia project directly through the menu
File->New->Project.
- with a right mouse click on a file or folder in the Navigator view you
can open "Wikipedia Upload" and "Wikipedia Download" menu and
upload/download multiple files in one step.
(the upload requires a user and password)
- you can configure your user and password for the upload in the menu:
Window->Preferences
and there in the node: Wikipedia Editor Configurations
- upload and download are writing problems into the console view
***Note*** I only tested the plugin with utf-8 encoded Wikipedia
installations.
iso-8859-1 sites will possibly make problems.
I moved the description to this new URL:
(it's a dead-end page at the moment)
http://www.plog4u.org/index.php/Using_Eclipse_Wikipedia_Editor
It would be nice, if someone could help me polish up the bad english in
my description and help in iron out the bugs to make the plugin more
reliable.

I was wondering if there's a feature in MediaWiki which allows for
article titles to be case-insensitive. We have a problem right now where
a user creates an article for, say, RFID. Another user will spell it
Rfid instead and we end up with duplicate articles.
I was hoping there would be a switch somewhere that can enable this
feature. So far I have not found any such setting. We're running the
following versions:
MediaWiki (http://wikipedia.sf.net/): 1.3.3
PHP (http://www.php.net/): 4.1.2 (apache)
MySQL (http://www.mysql.com/): 3.23.49-log
I noticed wikipedia.org has article titles which are case-insensitive,
so I wonder if this capability is buried deep in the configuration.
Thanks,
Randy
Is there a way to retrieve/reset a forgotten password for the WikiSysop
user? Or is the only alternative to do a complete re-install of the
Wiki? If a re-install is required, can someone provide an URL with some
details about how to do this?
Thanks,
Randy
