Some of my wiki users seem to like to paste full wiki URLs into pages
rather than use wiki link markup.
Is there an extension that can throw a validation error and prevent the
saving of a page if the submitted text contains a certain pattern, like the
hostname of the wiki?
Thanks.
Hi,
When the url is entered directly between the rss-tags all goes well. It seems impossible however to get the url from a parameter in a template, because the url is always turned into a link, which the RSS extension handle.
So
<rss>http://rss.cnn.com/rss/edition.rss</rss>
does work, but
<rss>{{{RSS url|}}}</rss>
with the same url as value of the parameter does not.
Is there a solution for this problem that I am overlooking?
Thanks,

Hello all,
Based on several discussions here and there I want to move
[[Manual:Pywikibot]] <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/PWB> (and all of the
subpages which are about 200 pages) to [[Pywikibot]] like other products
Another reason that motivates me to move is the page (and subpages) aren't
just about running a bot. they are about everything, including reports,
discussions, description about scripts and anything about pywikibot in
general.
If you disagree or you have any ideas please feel free to share and if
there will be no objection until Tuesday, I'll move them.
Best

Hi everyone,
This is really news from a week ago, but there's a new version out of the
Semantic Bundle, that now includes the latest stable version of Semantic
MediaWiki, 1.9.2, as well as updated versions of most of its other
extensions. It took a little while to "iron all the kinks out", as well as
to make sure that the package fully works for people across different
systems, but now everything seems to be fine.
About Semantic Bundle: it's a package of over 25 extensions and libraries,
that includes SMW and extensions that are typically used in conjunction
with it.
You can read more about SB, and download it, here:

I have been doing a lot of editing of content to my site & have noticed
that the runJobs.php script seems to be only running when I manually do
it. I thought that all the mediawiki maintenance utilities were run by
mediawiki as needed to keep the site up to date with the maintenance the
massive editing generates. I've searched the web for info on this but
have found little to suggest that any of these scripts are in fact
automated. Can someone advise if that is the case? Is there a logging
process for those scripts performance?
Thanks

Maybe I'm missing something, but is there a way to check the
$wgContentNamespaces against (or should it) $this->data['isarticle'] to
include or not include something in output in a skin.
I have about 6 namespaces considered content with $wgContentNamespaces
in the array. So using
<?php if ( $this->data['isarticle'] ) { ?> ....
I thought it would only insert in the pages defined in content
namespaces and not in pages of namespaces not defined as content. So for
example, I could insert in all pages in Main namespace, Foo, Foo1, etc
but User, Template or Category would return false and not insert.
Thanks

I tried importing the Wikipedia version of Navigation Popups gadget to my wiki (currently running MW 1.23 RC1) and it doesn't seem to work.
Is there an earlier version that does work on MW 1.23?
My users are experiencing a new error lately:
"Cannot Connect The proxy could not cnnect to the destination in time."
This tends to occur when saving a page with a Navbox or Infobox.
Is there something in MediaWiki I can tweak to alleviate this?
Thanks
Bill

Controlling edit rights with an Active Directory/LDAP group? (Maybe with

This is the only notification you will receive while this person is away.
Please consider the environment before printing this email.
Has anyone successfully limited wiki edit rights to the members an Active Directory group?
The LDAPauthentication extension permits "synchronization" between AD groups and wiki groups,
but I haven't found any details on the exact nature of that synchronization, just some short descriptions:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LDAP_Authentication/Configuration_O…
Our LDAPauthentication configuration, which limits *logins* to the members of an AD group, is here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:LDAP_Authentication#Controllin…
I fantasize that after "synchronization" with AD groups, I'd hope we could do:
$wgGroupPermissions['AD group name']['edit'] = true;
but I have no idea if such a thing is possible.
Thanks for any insights, pointers, etc.!
