next update for MW 1.23.x and 1.24.x when?
by Erkan Yilmaz 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

Hello Markus, there was supposed to be a "monthly point release" 2 days ago, for versions 1.23.x and 1.24.x (1). I guess it's postponed for some reason. Are there any estimates when it will be? Thanks, Erkan http://skilledtests.com/wiki/User:Erkan_Yilmaz (1) https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.24#Release_schedule https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.23#Release_schedule ********************************************************************************************** This e-mail may contain confidential and/or privileged information.

image format frame broken?
by Bill Traynor 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

I've just upgraded to 1.25alpha and one of my Users pointed out that Image formatting using the frame keyword no longer works. Here is a sample of the markup: [[Image:someimage.jpg|x256px|frame|none|image description text]] Using that code, the image renders on the page in it's original size, with no scaling. But if I remove the frame keyword, the image scales normally. Am I missing something obvious in this markup, or is the frame keyword deprecated? Thanks Bill

After I've marked a page for translation how do I know if it is being worked on or not? Is there a way of viewing pending translation or work in progress?

Jmol Extensions
by Brenton Horne 30 Jan '15

30 Jan '15

Hi For some reason that escapes me after installing the Jmol extension via these instructions (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Jmol#Installing_Jmol_extension) even though Jmol appears in Special:Version whenever I add <jmolPdb>3EIG</jmolPdb> or <jmolFile>(R)-nicotine.sdf</jmolFile> (R)-nicotine.sdf does exist on my Wiki, btw, if you're wondering) to a page and click "Publish" I'm left with a blank submit page (i.e., URL: .../pagename?action=submit). Second, I'm stumped as to how I could add cif file uploads to my Wiki. I've seen this code on the same MediaWiki article I linked: $wgXMLMimeTypes = array_merge( $wgXMLMimeTypes, array( 'http://www.xml-cml.org/schema:cml' => 'chemical/x-cml', 'http://www.xml-cml.org/schema:molecule' => 'chemical/x-cml', 'http://www.xml-cml.org/schema/cml2/core:list' => 'chemical/x-cml', 'http://www.xml-cml.org/schema/cml2/core:molecule' => 'chemical/x-cml' ) ); But I don't know how to do something similar for Crystallographic Information File (CIF) files. Thanks for your time, Brenton

MediaWiki namespace editing permissions
by Brenton Horne 30 Jan '15

30 Jan '15

Hi, I've just installed MediaWiki via Bitnami on my PC and I'd like to know what I need to do in order to edit pages in the MediaWiki namespace. My PC is secure (no one else uses it) as is my Internet connection so I'm fairly confident my Wiki should be secure enough for editing this namespace not to be too risky for me. Thanks for your time, Brenton

Parser functions
by Brenton Horne 30 Jan '15

30 Jan '15

Hi, I've noticed that parser functions are not enabled on my Wiki. For example {{#if:}} is not appropriately rendered and appears unchanged in templates in which it appears. How do I get them to work? Thanks for your time, Brenton
