Mediawiki adds extra lines
by rashi dhing 18 Jul '10

Does anyone know how to remove the line breaks and the <p> and <pre> tags that mediawiki seems to add internally while publishing a page. I am working on this project where any text added by the user in the wiki is processed and transferred to an editor and while i am trying to maintain the alignment, mediawiki tends to add extra spaces and lines. How can I take care of this ? Thanks, Rashi D.

Hi, I haven't been able to figure this out from the doc ... Can I log in a user (bot) from more than one place (IP address) at the same time? I have an impending need to run Interwicket from more than one place, as the primary will be unavailable at times. Is logging in the other system going to log out the first, or some such? any bad effects? Robert

Problem with mwclient page.save and large text files
by Sal976 14 Jul '10

Hi, I am using mwclient 0.6.4 (r93) to import some Wiki pages from en.wikipedia to another wiki installation (presumably running Mediawiki 1.15). Everything works fine, except when I try to import 'big' pages, e.g.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grb2 content= Mediawiki text file to be imported (111579 characters in this case) When I try to write this page (or pages of similar size), I get the following error: page = site.Pages['Grb2'] page.save(content) Traceback: File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/mwclient/page.py", line 142, in save result = do_edit() File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/mwclient/page.py", line 137, in do_edit **data) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/mwclient/client.py", line 165, in api info = self.raw_api(action, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/mwclient/client.py", line 250, in raw_api return json.loads(json_data) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/json/__init__.py", line 307, in loads return _default_decoder.decode(s) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/json/decoder.py", line 319, in decode obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end()) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/json/decoder.py", line 338, in raw_decode raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded") ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded I wonder if this error is due to server timeout or exceeding number of characters.. Any suggestions?
