Getting rid of the option "None Selected" for File uploads
by Chris Tharp 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

To whoever, I'm trying to find away to get rid of, or add a template, to the licensing option on File uploads labeled "None Selected." Via Mediawiki:Licenses one can add any number of licensing options, and have those licensing options call forth a template to be included on the file page. But the "None Selected" option seems to be hard coded and it doesn't seem to be possible to add a template to it via the Mediawiki:Licenses interface. I'm using semantic mediawiki functions & the variable CURRENTUSER (from an extension) to automatically annotate the uploads, via the licensing templates, but the "None Selected" option is leaving a gap in those annotations. Thanks, Chris Tharp Sent from my iPad

Second round of the MediaWiki Release Management RFP
by Greg Grossmeier 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

Excerpt from the blog post: https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/05/27/request-for-proposals-mediawiki-relea… -- Last year, the Wikimedia Foundation started to share the responsibility[0] of the long term management of the MediaWiki software project with the wider community. We are continuing the process with a second Request for Proposals[1] to manage the third-party releases of MediaWiki (PDF[2]). The process for this RFP is a community-involved one. There is a three-week period for organizations to prepare and submit their proposals, after which the community can comment on and ask questions of the proposers. The Wikimedia Foundation will take all of this feedback into account when making the final decision for who will lead the release management of MediaWiki for the next year. The deadline for proposals is June 13. Please do get involved if you are interested in the future of MediaWiki!

Tabs disappeared in User Preferences page
by Bill Traynor 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

After upgrading to MW1.23 the tabs on the User Preferences screen have disappeard and appear now as a simple unordered list. The skin is custom, but is a Vector based subskin with only the header customized. When I switch back to stock Vector, the tabs return. Did something change in the way Vector is rendered that I'll have to re-write my subskin based on the Vector in 1.23? Thanks Bill

Now I'm seeing a couple of errors in /var/log/messages PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function getPageLanguage() on a non-object in .../includes/OutputPage.php on line 1836 PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 24 bytes) in .../includes/db/Database.php on line 1035 and oddly the javascript that creates the tabs on User preference pages isn't working now. any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks Bill

missing functions in Modules?
by Bill Traynor 09 Jun '14

09 Jun '14

I've almost got Scribunto working with my MW1.23 installation. However, I keep seeing Script Errors such as: The function "docPage" does not exist. or The function "navbox" does not exist. I've imported (from Wikipedia) the Navbox suit, with Template. Are these functions defined in a library I may be missing? Thanks Bill

Global Settings
by John 09 Jun '14

Given we have had SUL for almost 5 years, we still lack the ability to set preference across all wikis. Especially with the the introduction of the login wiki, this should be doable. Can we get the ball rolling on this?
