Can not create article
by Gunter 30 Apr '07

30 Apr '07

Hello, to my big surprise it is not possible to create the article FUELLGRADMONITORING I just get a blank page. This happens on a mw 1.10 installation and can also be testet on mediawiki.org. Any hints? I am not aware of any spamfilter on my mediawiki installation. Apparently the word ADMONITOR gets blocked. In Mediawiki.org not even a search is possible! regards, Gunter

by Klaus Becker 30 Apr '07

Hi folks, in monobook/main.css, I indicated "background: aliceblue;" to change background of textarea, and it works. But the color I really want, is something like "ccccff", <body bgcolor="#ccccff"> in html code. How can I indicate a color by a number? thanks Klaus

SMW 0.7 released
by Markus Krötzsch 28 Apr '07

28 Apr '07

Hi all, Semantic MediaWiki has just been released in version 0.7. This version should support MediaWiki 1.9 and 1.10 (and probably 1.8), but installation for 1.10 should be particularly simple since no manual file patches are needed any more. Core new features include: * New special pages for searching and browsing data, in particular Special:Browse. These replace the old Special:SearchTriple (which still exists as a stub for backwards compatibility). * Informative listings of results on all pages in the namespaces Attribute, Relation, and Type. * Additional options for formatting results of inline queries, supporting templates, transclusion of result pages, and counting of results. * New datatype for enumerated string values. * Maintenance script for updating the semantic database, e.g. after importing text-only data. * More languages. * A large number of smaller fixes and improvements. Upgrading from an existing SMW 0.6 should not be difficult. The main change from prior versions is that the file SMW_LocalSettings.php is now obsolete and the contents of LocalSettings.php is slightly changed accordingly (see INSTALL). But the database layout is fully compatible to SMW 0.6 (in both directions). You may still want to use Special:SMWAdmin to trigger some added DB optimisations. Some updates of the documentation are still needed to reflect the new features. Completed translation files can still be submitted -- there might be an SMW 0.7.1 to include them. If you find any problems, send a mail to semediawiki-user(a)lists.sourceforge.net or file a bug at MediaZilla. Last but not least, big thanks to all developers, translators, and users who have contributed to the current release.

How to hide text ?
by QCTX 27 Apr '07

27 Apr '07

Hi everybody ! I'm a new french user of wikimedia. We use it for a manga et and I've got a little problem. There's some plots that's don't need to be directly visible for all the peoples for we don't spoil them about the end of the story. So I've think that I can find a way to hide part of the text. On french part of wikipedia, I found a usefull item to solve my problem with using a sort of "rolling box" (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aide:Syntaxe#Effets_divers , fith row) but when I use this code in my wiki, there's no effect (http://yuki.haruhi.fr/index.php/Yuki_Nagato#R.C3.B4le_dans_l.27histoire ). So I look for help into the english branch of wikipedia and I found a little extension to show/hide text (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ShowHide_Extension ) in the MetaWiki. But my english must be too poor for I understand exactly what to do with the source code. Where do I have to copy it ? In wich file ? do I have enough right with my status of sysop and bureaucrat ? Is there other ways to do this ? In the same time I'm realy surprised to see the lack of evident solutions (or I'm really stupid) for this type of wiki. I mean, I'm certainly not the first one to maintain a wiki about a manga, so I shouldn't be the first ont to ask for this, am I ? PS : Scuse my poor english, i'm french (http://www.bashfr.org/?1337).

Hi folks, I have to import hundreds of images of an already existing site I am transforming in mediawiki. Is there a way to import them alltogether instead of importing image after image ? thanks Klaus

Sourceforge primer?
by Michael Daly 27 Apr '07

27 Apr '07

I've created a couple of extensions. I added a page for it on www.mediawiki.org, but the link for download is to my own server, not Sourceforge. I'm about to release my second extension and I'd like to put the code on Sourceforge rather than my own server. Having never used Sourceforge, I find the instructions terse and how they apply to the Mediawiki repository is not clear. I've looked at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Subversion and it's still not clear how I would upload an extension's code. Is there a simple primer that explains this? Mike
