First question:
What is your $wgRCMaxAge set to?
By default changes are only kept in the recentchanges table for 7 days.
See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgRCMaxAge
Second question:
Have you recently changed any settings on your wiki or run any of the
maintenance scripts?
Otherwise I would suggest checking your server logs.
Regards,
Daniel

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Recent Changes shows nothing!
When I click on Recent Changes as of this morning, I see only today's
activity. a new user added joined the wiki, and a page was
updated. No matter what I do to look back in time, I don't see anything,
even when I tell it to look back 300 days and 500 edits. There should be a
full year worth of edits there. I could see them yesterday, but not today.
I am running Mediawiki 1.15.1, PHP 5.2.6, and MySQL 4.1.16
Did the new user hack me somehow, or what? He looks like a spammer, but a
very mild one.

Hello, I'm planing to copy my mediawiki user accounts to another system.
I'd need to get the passwords either in md5 hash or in clear. I checked
out the manual [1], password aren't stored as simple MD5 hash, an
additional string is added. Is there a way I can convert them into
regular hash of the password?
Many thanks,
HKairpost

Hello,
In my project, I need to access and get the contents in Wikipedia,and
then build a inverted index using these contents. But I don't know how to
get the contents in Wikipedia efficiently and easily. What can I do ? Are
there any APIs ?
Thank you for your time and help.
=====================
best wishes!
Hello,
I have a problem with the following wiki page:
http://www.oxidforge.org/wiki/index.php?title=Languages/Slovenian&curid=180…
It always throws an error message at me. I tried raising the PHP limit
to 128 MB and 60 seconds, as well as disabling all extensions, but to
no avail. The script seems to run forever, consuming lots of CPU
power. I also tried activating the debug log file, which didn't work
out neither.
The original page at
http://www.oxidforge.org/wiki/index.php?title=Languages/Slovenian
is a bit large, but I doubt it is too large.
Did I hit a bug? Is it a misconfiguration?
Thanks for any advice,
Florian

Welcome to mediawiki-l. This mailing list exists for discussion and questions
about the MediaWiki software[0]. Important MediaWiki-related announcements
(such as new versions) are also posted to this list.
Other resources.
If you only wish to receive announcements, you should subscribe to
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,
- mediawiki-i18n[8] for discussion of MediaWiki internationalisation support,
- wikibugs-l[9] for notification of changes to the bug tracker.
List administrivia (unsubscribing, list archives).
To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit [12]. Archives of previous postings
can be found at [3].
This list is also gatewayed to the Gmane NNTP server[4], which you can use to
read and post to the list.
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 folks,
I've included what I'm hoping is the final version of my patch for bug
4421 ("Image file extension should not be part of the name"):
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4421
Its a rather large patch, so I've included two versions of it:
1. Big hairy patch with everything in it
2. Broken up into smaller independent patches as best that I could in
a tarball w/README
Any strong preference for one over the other (or a third option)?
Also, if it's appropriate to request svn access and it's still a good
time to check stuff in, I'm happy to start checking in the safer
portions of this patch.

My current wiki uses categories extensively to organise images.
However, if the number of images in a category exceeds the page limit,
then the subcategories of that category will not appear on the first
page of the main category. Example here
http://wiki.evageeks.org/Category:Images_%28Screenshots%29
In order to get the subcategory list to display, you have to go to the
second category page
http://wiki.evageeks.org/index.php?title=Category:Images_%28Screenshots%29&…
I should mention that the main category is itself a subcategory of
another category, in case this might be affecting things.
Is there a resolution to this issue? Some magic word that can be called?
I'm using Mediawiki 1.15.1

Hi,
I wonder if it is possible to avoid this form *[[Media:File.pdf]]* when
someone wants to upload a file with a direct link. Or if mediawiki can
add this form automatically.
I use mediawiki with some other partners who they dont know basic
wikilink syntax so it is quite difficult for them to upload a file and
use this form [[media:...]] unless i give them some guidance.
Thanks,
Dionysia
