URL-Parameters for internal links
by Stefan Schupp 08 Nov '11

08 Nov '11

Hi, I want to be able to use the internal referrer. My current approach is based on the URLArguments Extension, which provides a parser function to access the URL-Parameters. Now I need to attach parameters to internal links. Is there any possibility to attach the parameters in wiki-language, or do I have to generate "real" links? regards, Stefan

Hello, after upgrading from 1,6 to 1,7 im receiving the following error. Maybe someone has an Idea? Es ist ein Datenbankfehler aufgetreten. Der Grund kann ein Programmierfehler sein. Die letzte Datenbankabfrage lautete: (SQL-Abfrage versteckt) aus der Funktion „LinksUpdate::getExistingInterwikis“. Die Datenbank meldete den Fehler „1146: Table '********.mw_iwlinks' doesn't exist (localhost)“.

Next month: Museum Computer Network http://www.mcn.edu/mcn-2011-atlanta 16-19 Nov, Atlanta. Wikimedians there will present about mobile, OpenStreetMap, Commons, uploading, and other museum-related issues. Wikimedian Lori Phillips will attend and would love for Wikimedia developers to come too, because outreach people who concentrate on relationships and content will need help discussing the tech side of MediaWiki-museum integration. Attendees will include "the tech and IT professionals in museums who can make these cross-platform integrations really work in their museums."

Help with
by Rowe, Dolores A 31 Oct '11

31 Oct '11

Teammates, In MediaWiki 1.15.3, I want to remove the footer item "Privacy policy", but these directions didn't work for me. I'm sure it's something really easy that I am missing, can anyone help ? I removed the text "Privacy policy" from the page MediaWiki:Privacy, but when I saved it the text populated back in there. From http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Footer: * privacy - this is a link only. Edit MediaWiki:Privacy<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Privacy> for the link text and MediaWiki:Privacypage<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Privacypage> for the wiki page to which to link. Thank you so much.
