I have seen in the spanish wikipedia, in the entry "calamar", that there is
some kind of template on the right-hand side.
http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calamar
I have some plants and I would like to create a wiki for them to my personal
use. I would like you tell me how could I create a similar template as the
one displayed in the above wikipedia entry with the fields I want.
I have put together a mysql call that grabs the latest content of all
of the sub pages for an article.It seems to be working fine ... but i
am wondering whether i'm missing something critical that may come
back to haunt me down the road.
* Does this seem like a safe way of grabbing the latest content of
multiple articles?
SELECT page_id, page_title, rev_text_id, text.old_text
FROM wiki_page
INNER JOIN (
SELECT *
FROM wiki_revision
GROUP BY rev_page
ORDER BY rev_timestamp DESC
) AS rev ON page_id = rev_page
INNER JOIN wiki_text AS TEXT ON rev_text_id = text.old_id
WHERE page_namespace =0
AND page_title LIKE 'Article/%'
ORDER BY page_latest
LIMIT 0 , 30
Also ...
* Tables.sql in the maintenance folder mentions that the data in the
text table may be compressed of encoded in a funky way. When is this
the case? would it stop me from being able to parse the content using
$wgOut->parse($content); ?
Any insights greatly appreciated.
He visto en la wikipedia en español, en la palabra calamar, que hay una
especie de plantilla y dentro hay unos datos.

Yo tengo unas cuantas plantas y me gustaría crearme una wiki de ellas para
uso personal, me gustaría que me dijerais como puedo crearme una plantilla
parecida con los campos que yo quiero.
Hi,
I'm interested in adding that functionality to my Wiki.
How accurate are the instructions found at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/HTML2FPDF_and_Mediawiki for version
1.6.3?
To those that installed it, what is your experience with it?
Thanks!
Simon
Hello All!
I have a little editing problem:
I have some templates that use the following syntax:
Bla bla
Bla bla
<includeonly> [[category:Bla Pages]] </includeonly>
Well, what happens is that the template itself does not belong to any
category, but, let say, a page called The Bla, and if it calls the template
{{bla}}, it gets immediately belongs to the category Bla Pages.
So far so good.
Now, lets say that I have some help page (Help:Bla), and in the help page I
would like to demonstrate the template Bla.
Therefore, what I do is
<nowiki>{{Bla}}</nowiki> will show {{Bla}}.
What happens now, and here is the problem, is that the page called Help:Bla
is now categorized in Bla Pages, and that is the thing I would like to avoid
from.
Any idea how?
Is there a thing such as calling the template without its categories?
Thanks!

Thanks a lot Brian.
My server is in a different timezone than i am, and i had just
assumed that MediaWiki was storing timestamps in the server's
timezone. When i use UTC everything seems to work fine ...
except ...
I am in EDT so i should be -5 hours from UTC. But in the preferences
Time Zone panel it says that i am only 4 hours behind the server even
though it is correctly displaying my local time. Is this an error in
my localsettings?
Just to make sure i understand what's going on with dates and times...
MediaWiki stores all timestamps in UTC.
So gmdate('YmdHis') should be the same as $dbr->timestamp() ?

Perhaps Tim should consider one of the many CamelCase wikis out there?
They have a certain appeal that is missing from [[explicitly linked]]
wikis, although I'm not aware of any CamelCase wikis that have the
feature set of MediaWiki. (Or else I'd probably be using it. :-)
(For those who aren't aware, in the original WikiWikiWeb invented by
Ward Cunningham, anything with InternalCaseChanges automagically
became a link. This is commonly referred to as "CamelCase" -- for the
"hump" in the middle -- wiki. See http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?
CamelCase .)

Well... you could *write* one, an contribute it to the project!

Sounds like you're in a good position to lift the WYSIWYG bits out of
some other open-source wiki, and plop it in MediaWiki.
Apologies if you don't have the skills or time to do such a thing,
but consider that others may not, either.
