cleaning out a mass of unwanted users
by Boris Epstein 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

Hello everyone, I was careless enough to run a MediaWiki installation allowing people to sign up without a moderator's approval. Hence a few hundred of them did sign up and started to use the site to swap images. How can I delete their accounts in the most expeditious way? Thanks. Boris.

Template sharing question
by John W. Foster 13 May '12

13 May '12

I'm wondering if there has been any suggestion to set up a template sharing area in Mediawiki, or all Mediawiki based sites similar to instant commons. I have noticed that there are a LOT of us , me included that use the templates from other sites. I certainly don't have the skill to write them myself so I usually just copy & paste them. However if they are upgraded by the authors, I don't usually get the updates. It seems this would be especially helpful to those maintaining translated sites. I realize this would not work for all templates as it doesn't for all media in commons. I use some original media & some from instant commons. Template sharing should work just as easily, & it would assist in growing Wikipedia more quickly. Any thoughts??

Help importing abstract.xml
by စကား၀ါေျမ အြန္လိုင္ းစာၾကည့္တိုက္ 02 May '12

02 May '12

Dear Media Wiki Community, First I would like to say sorry if I wrongly ask help by this way. I am having a problem related to importing abstract.xml which is dumped data from http://my.wikipedia.org . I am getting the error of "Import failed: Expected <mediawiki> tag, got feed ". I have no idea for that. Second problem is importing a file named mywiki-20120430-all-titles-in-ns0.gz which is situated on http://dumps.wikimedia.org/mywiki/20120430/ . I am not sure which file type it is and how I import. Thank you so much. Best Regards, Ko Min

Page edit timestamps
by Stephen Berg (Contractor) 01 May '12

01 May '12

Is there a way to get a pages last updated timestamp from somewhere other than the page itself? I'd like to build a page which will be a table of certain wiki pages I keep an eye on, and the timestamp for that pages last update? The {{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}} magic word only seems to give you the last update for the page that you're viewing. -- Stephen Berg Systems Administrator NRL Code: 7320 Office: 228-688-5738 stephen.berg.ctr(a)nrlssc.navy.mil

Does a brand new custom user group have default rights ? Or should these rights be defined ?
by HiddenId 30 Apr '12

30 Apr '12

Hello all, We have created a new user group. Should this new user group has default minimum rights or has this new user group no right defined at all and they have to be defined ? Is there a sort of cascade of rights : an anonymous become "user autoconfirmed", and then "user emailconfirmed" with default rights of "user" group: edit, move, etc ... A user defined as belonging to a "incubators" group by administrator in "user right management" page (in special page), will have "user" group rights + "incubators" rights ? As a result, the right "move" from a namespace-one to an other namespace-two, is not allowed to the user who became "incubators", when "incubators" group has the right to "play" in the namespace. We did this creation of new user group across the definition of a new custom namespace: $wgNamespaceProtection[NS_INCUB] = array( 'incub-edit' ); # right 'incub-edit" is required to "play" in INCUB namespace $wgGroupPermissions['incubators']['incub-edit'] = true; # "incubators" has "incub-edit" right which give the right to "play" in INCUB space Antoine

wiki move problem
by Ward De Ridder 29 Apr '12

29 Apr '12

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello I am moving the wiki of our hackerspace from a shared hosting to a VPN. I copied the entire www-root of the old server into the www-root of the new server, and exported en imported the entire database. Old wiki (in read-only mode): voidwarranties.be New wiki: beta.voidwarranties.be I get a page not found error on the homepage, and a more verbose error when I click random page: http://beta.voidwarranties.be/index.php/POSTPONED_-_Weekly_wednesday_july_2… [1] I ran the update.php script (as Joan recommended me on IRC), but no result. For example this page: http://beta.voidwarranties.be/index.php/Special:RecentChanges works fine, so the link to the db is ok. I exported and imported the "page" table again to make sure it was imported correctly, but no change. To make sure all dependencies for a wiki are met I installed a fresh wiki here, and it runs as it should: http://46.18.35.239/testwiki/index.php/Main_Page Anyone any clue on how to solve this? Ward [1]: The database did not find the text of a page that it should have found, named "POSTPONED - Weekly wednesday july 2011" . This is usually caused by following an outdated diff or history link to a page that has been deleted. If this is not the case, you may have found a bug in the software. Please report this to an administrator, making note of the URL. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJPnIcMAAoJEKWbkpzPufBS3MQH/0bJBCK4uHYRROCZYA0PDMxG MShsxOO42cajq8iKx4wVenCVipIWNvPmLhcA6tfuXbqq0VD/DsCLjLq+jxTWB/af /f8GzHTL95TX3TccreDOqa7iQ0AMEqEPG4xMTaFh2dV2ZNO+WXN/+/nuGnBmlwRJ kTbmKFeDZweGWfWvijI7JUsichBu2udfkHMLBchhseuVQkNoF4N7q0Rx7yhM8EHb Mv104UuVENqbCSSz54Z9QCVv7EesxEfNGzwR/1/pb7MCgM+Cog4K3w46vlSWn6gR sWRXZQJ0GH5jWCT38OYdPy9i7w9RdHjvU3rx7yY+ErBduGLEoG9enMU7B1Oz+zM= =G0Vj -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

The IT department only allows me to edit via the wiki > interface but not access the server side. That's pretty heavy-handed. Can you run it from a workgroup server, or even your boss's desktop machine? Or does IT have the keys to ALL the computers? I'd think a machine on your LAN would be adequately firewalled to make IT feel better about it. > ... found semantic form extension and simpleform extension. Those would be my choices. See if your boss has enough "pull" to run a well-firewalled "development" server on your LAN for such things. ---------------- An economist is someone who, upon encountering an auditorium filled with 40,000 destitute, unemployed people and Bill Gates, says, "On average, I see a room full of millionaires!" -- JWS :::: Jan Steinman, EcoReality Co-op ::::

Re: [Mediawiki-l] MediaWiki-l Digest, Vol 103, Issue 23
by Ron Laufer 28 Apr '12

Thanks for the ideas. Unfortunately, Collapsmi has the same issue as CollapseTest, and HeaderTabs isn't really what I want. I'd like to keep it all on the same page/tab, but with collapsible sections. CollapseText and/or Collapsmi are exactly what I'm looking for, but I need one of them to work correctly with Cite. :( Ron -- Ron Laufer > Hi Ron, > > Have you tried using Collapsmi or HeaderTabs? > > Regards, > Sami > > On 25 April 2012 01:46, Ron Laufer <gonzoron(a)hotmail.com> wrote: > > > > > I have this page on my wiki, which is really long: > > http://fraternityofshadows.com/wiki/Timeline > > > > I tried to use CollapseText to shorten it: > > http://fraternityofshadows.com/w/index.php?title=Timeline&oldid=73152 > > > > It worked, except that all the footnotes provided by Cite are messed up in > > the collapsed text.
