Hello,
i'm admin on mediawiki site on my companie's intranet.
I have renamed a lot of pages to integrate them in a new namespace.
As a result i have a lot of links that link to the olds names of the
pages which are became redirect pages.
that's a problem for us and for cosmetic reason i have to update all
this links to link directly on the renamed pages.
Is there a maintenance script who can do this ?
Search all the links in the wiki and change them if the link point on a
redirect page ?
Thanks for your help
Best regards
Hi,
I checked out the latest 1.12 branch and found my special pages had
ceased to work (they were fine in 1.11). I load them as per
Manual:Special Pages. What 1.12 seems to be doing is loading the page
from includes, and not the page I specified in $wgAutoLoader.
Interestingly my replacement search page still works. Any clues? Or is
this a bug? They are simple extra special pages...
Cheers,
Alex

SharePoint site is great for some uses, there are some features that
the Wikipedia engine has that are missing in Microsoft's product. One
big thing is the engine's ability to archive. On the SharePoint site,
typically only the current status of a project is shown."
Definitely MediaWiki - there's a photo.
So expect our Windows performance to significantly improve, then ;-D

Welcome to mediawiki-l. This mailing list exists for discussion and questions

mediawiki-announce[1] instead.
MediaWiki development discussion, and all Wikimedia technical questions, should
be directed to the wikitech-l[2] mailing list.
Several other MediaWiki-related lists exist:
- mediawiki-api[5] for API discussions,
- mediawiki-enterprise[6] for discussion of MediaWiki in the enterprise,
- mediawiki-cvs[7] for notification of commits to the Subversion repository,

Posting to the list.
Before posting to this list, please read the MediaWiki FAQ[10]. Many common
questions are answered here. You may also search the list archives to see if
your question has been asked before.
Please try to ask your question in a way that enables people to answer you.
Provide all relevant details, explain your problem clearly, etc. You may
wish to read [13], which explains how to ask questions well.
To post to the list, send mail to <mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>. This is a
public list, so you should not include confidential information in mails you
send.
When replying to an existing thread, use the "Reply" or "Followup" feature of
your mail client, so that clients that understand threading can sort your
message properly. When quoting other messages, please use the "inline" quoting
style[11], for clarity.
When creating a new thread, do not reply to an existing message and change the
subject. This will confuse peoples' mail readers, and will result in fewer
people reading your mail. Instead, compose a new message for your post.
Messages posted to the list have the "Reply-To" header set to the mailing list,
which means that by default, replies will go to the entire list. If you are
posting a reply which is only interesting to the original poster, and not the
list in general, you should change the reply to only go to that person. This
avoids cluttering the list with irrelevant traffic.
About this message.
This message is posted to the list once per week by <river(a)wikimedia.org>.
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns about this mailing.

Hi,
Is it possible to set the first page that the users see to be the login
screen, which they can't navigate around until they've logged in?
Cheers,
Dan
Hi,
can anyone reproduce the following behavior?
if you work as an non-logged in user at en.wp and insert
<ref>www.ultraevilspamlink.com</ref> into a page that does not have
<references>, you will not be asked to solve a CAPTCHA. It only starts
the moment someone introduces a <references /> tag.
