Number of articles per page
by Ben Wells 24 Apr '06

24 Apr '06

Hi folks! I set up my wiki a couple weeks ago. I've just hit the point where in a certain category I have more than 200 items. When I view the category it now splits the articles into increments of 200. I was wondering if there was a way to increase the number of articles shown in the category, as I would like for it not to be split up at this point. I've been racking my brain on how to accomplish this. Thanks all, Ben AlphaFlight.net - The Home For Alpha Flight Fans http://www.alphaflight.net Alpha Waves - The Alpha Flight Forum http://forum.alphaflight.net

Newuserlog error
by Invalid Name 23 Apr '06

23 Apr '06

Hello, I've tried adding the Newuserlog extension to http://tolkiengateway.net and it shows up in Special:Version along with all the hooks, the log is present in Special:Log but whenever someone registers they get the following error message: A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was: INSERT INTO `logging` (log_type,log_action,log_timestamp,log_user,log_namespace,log_title,log_comment,log_params) VALUES ('newusers','newusers','20060423230519','257','-1','Userlogin','New user ([[User talk:Test123|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Test123|contribs]] | [[Special:Blockip/Test123|block]])','') from within function "LogPage::saveContent". MySQL returned error "0: ". The weird part is when I copied the code and inserted it into MySQL manually it worked fine, and the user showed up in the Special:Log/newuser I'm unsure where the conflict is between MySQL and MW but any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Hyarion _________________________________________________________________ Because e-mail on your cell phone should be easy: Try Windows Live Mail for Mobile beta http://www2.imagine-msn.com/minisites/mail/Default.aspx?locale=en-us

Collapse/wipe revision history?
by Jeff Lane 23 Apr '06

23 Apr '06

In Mediawiki 1.3 and 1.4, you could "wipe" revision history reasonably easily. You just wipe the single MySQL table (mw_old), flush the objectcache, and previous revisions of the entire wiki were blown away. Any links into history items were dynamically rebuilt during subsequent accesses. Is there a way to do this in 1.5.X or 1.6.X? We'd like to do this when we take sites that have been in development internally and put them into production with a "clean slate" with no trace of all of the test revisions.

Re: [Mediawiki-l] [Wikitech-l] Google Summer of Code 2006
by SJ 23 Apr '06

23 Apr '06

Ahh, just beat me to it :-) They're not taking applications yet, and the #summer-discuss IRC channel is inexplicably hosted on SlashNET, but that's extremely cool. Congrats to Brion and everyone working on this... last year, Google sponsored an average of 10 students per project/org on their list. Huzzah!, SJ * likewise Creative Commons, One Laptop Per Child (which is doing cool things with wikis and wants to fit Wikimedia content on its laptops), and Xiph.org, which is moving closer to providing a truly robust free audio and video toolchain. A reason to smile... :-) On 4/23/06, Mathias Schindler <mathias.schindler(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > after wandering through the archive of those lists, it seems that > nobody has yet mentioned that Wikimedia was accepted as a mentoring > organisation for the Google Summer of Code 2006. > > http://code.google.com/soc/wikim/about.html > > Students may apply for this in the first 8 days of May. > > Please have a look at > http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code_2006 for suggestions > regarding possible projects. > > It would be a great opportunity for us, yadda yadda etc. please apply. > > Mathias > _______________________________________________ > Wikitech-l mailing list > Wikitech-l(a)wikimedia.org > http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l > -- ++SJ

Question about some internals
by Nicolai Kamenzky 23 Apr '06

23 Apr '06

Hi MediaWiki-team! I'm wondering about how the page versioning is managed. Which data will be saved for a page with several revisions? Are deltas used? How exactly? Are there some docs about it? Regards, Nicolai

security update policy
by jdd 23 Apr '06

23 Apr '06

Hello, I'm trying to make a server update from 1.5.8 to 1.6.3 but have difficulties with this, so I tried to install materials straight from my distribution (SUSE Linux 10.0) this is the SUSE Linux stable one. after installing and update to the very last security updates, I ended up with mediawiki 1.4.7 (not sure of the "7") so my question: how long do you plan to make security updates on old products? I wonder if a 1.4 will still be secure :-) and how long :-) I work hard with opensuse, so I can report there any problem. thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos
