Hey all,
Can anyone help me write an apache alias/redirect to get users from
mysite.com to mysite.com/wiki
I am using pretty URL's so /wiki is actually /w using this apache alias:
Alias /wiki /var/www/w/index.php
However, this requires users to click the "w" directory to enter the site,
very bad.
Thanks

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,

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 All,
What are steps required to enable our Wiki users embed tutorials (AVI or
MP4 files) created by them into wiki pages. At present our wiki allows
us to just upload images files and not video files. Should we be
implementing Embed Media extension and configure file extension and file
size to support these media files.
Thanks,
Poorani
Environment: MediaWiki 1.12.0, Linux Redhat
My personal site got vandalized by hundreds of page changes. I was going to
try to undo them by hand but I kept getting:
"The edit could not be undone due to conflicting intermediate edits."
So I found information about doing automated "rollbacks"
here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Edit_-_Rollback
and here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Administrators#Rollback
But when I follow the process and pass "action=rollback" I get the following
error:
unknown_action: Unrecognised value for parameter 'action'
It seems the only actions I have available to me are:
login, logout, query, expandtemplates, parse, opensearch, feedwatchlist,
help, paraminfo
Is it that my version of MW doesn't have the rollback feature? Do I need to
upgrade to the recent version and do you know if that will enable me to
rollback to my original page?
Thanks for your help!
Mark
Is there a howto on running MW as a CMS
where only a few persons/admins can edit,
but others could still create user pages
and tweak their display?

I'm migrating from a custom web site to MediaWiki a collection of pages which
contain information for various games, including player lists with contact
information (mostly email addresses). The old site only shows the email
addresses (as mailto links) when a user is loged in; if you browse to one
of these pages without being logged in, you see names only, without the
mailto links. The purpose of this is to hinder address harvesters, the
assumption being that they won't bother to get an account on our site.
Is there a way to do this with MediaWiki?

Subject: common.css overrides monobook's main.css?
To: mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org
Hi,
I'm making a custom skin based on MonoBook.
Isn't main.css meant to override common.css?
Currently "a.new, #quickbar a.new" rule in "common", overrides any "a.new"
rule in "main".
"main" is '@import'ed after "common" in the index php file.
I don't get the point of having a dominant color rule in a shared css file.
Is it intentional?
Thanks,
Onur
