Hi.
In the Misc. section of the user preferences, the user has the option to select "Auto-number headings" as a global option.
Is there a way to control this on a per-page basis? I didn't see a magicword that did this. maybe someone can reccomend an extension to use.
Thanks!

Hello,
We're trying to find for each featured article the time when it
acquired featured status.
At 22:07 on 15 July 2008 GimmeBot modified the page "King Arthur" with
the comment "GimmeBot adding FA star".
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=King_Arthur&diff=226083953&oldid=…
Do you think a pattern match /addding\s+\S+\s+star/ (in the comments
field) would be the most reliable/appropriate way of finding in the
history dump file the time when each of the featured articles acquired
this status?
Or do you happen to know of a special page listing this time for each
featured article ?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Henry
Safe mode is off should this be an issue?

You don't say who the owner is. If it's not apache (or whatever web
server you're using, make it so and see what difference that makes.

i've been having trouble configuring nginx and mediawiki together to
have short urls. the google showed me these links:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URLhttp://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/wiki/Page_title_--_Lighttpd_…
but the lighty configs aren't quite the same as nginx.
so I was wondering who has implimented mediawiki + nginx w/ proper
short urls and if possible could describe what they put into their
nginx.conf :)

Hi, I am trying to rewrite a Wikipedia template without using html codes. If
capital is the same as the largest town, then only one entry is shown,
otherwise it will show two entries, i.e the capital and the largest town. I
wrote like this but it is not working. Both conditions appear in the
template:
{{#if: {{{capital}}} == {{{largest_city}}}|
! valign=top style="font-weight:normal;" {{!}} '''[[Capital
(political)|Capital]]'''<br>(and largest city)
! valign=top style="padding:2px 10px; font-weight:normal;" {{!}}
{{{capital}}}
}}
}}
|-
{{#if: {{{capital}}} !== {{{largest_city}}}|
{{!}}-
! valign=top {{!}} [[Capital (political)|Capital]]
! valign=top style="padding:2px 10px; font-weight:normal;" {{!}}
{{{capital}}}
{{!}}-
! valign=top {{!}} Largest_city
! valign=top style="padding:2px 10px; font-weight:normal;" {{!}}
{{{largest_city}}}
}}
}}
Your kind comments appreciated. I wanted to try "else" but I don't know the
syntax, so I use the long method, LOL.

Hi WikiMedians,
This question is for any of you who have developed a skin. I imagine you are constantly tweaking your skins, but how long does it take you to make a workable one? I recently had to make a skin from some images made by a graphic design shop. I made it look great, just like the pictures, but I forgot a lot of the functional things, like the table padding my users were used to or the new class on links to non-existent pages. I'm thinking skin development is a thankless job that requires attention to detail and more stamina and persistence than I seem to have.
So give me a yardstick. How long does it take to develop a well-rounded skin on average?
Thanks!

Does anyone have a clue about why activating $wgForeignFileRepos slows
down Mediawiki's response time very (I mean very) much, also for pages
with NO images?
I see no significant increase in CPU time on the server after enabling
repos, so perhaps there's some extra polling of common's api? Perhaps
some misplaced hooks, or something?

I have a client who despised the "wiki look," and wanted it to look
"like a normal website." I spent about 40 hours tweaking it to her
satisfaction.

I actually got it looking good on Safari and Firefox in less than half
that time, then began the struggle making it look reasonable on the
various abominations of Microsoft crap that are in common use...

I tried to figure out how local caching for media from ForeignAPIRepo is
handled, but it seems like no chached images are created using only
these settings:
$wgForeignFileRepos[] = array(
'class' => 'ForeignAPIRepo',
'name' => 'shared',
'apibase' => 'http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php',
'fetchDescription' => false, // Optional
'apiThumbCacheExpiry' => 43200,
);
Is there an option to switch on for local caching, or does wikmedia.org
prefer supporting bandwith thefts (like me)? :-)
