Is anybody using Auth0 (https://auth0.com/) for authentication on a MediaWiki system? We are looking into it, but we've found no existing extensions for MediaWiki.
Thanks,

I recently released a set of Ansible playbooks that will build a wiki
family on a minimal CentOS or RedHat 6.7 or 7 platform. There are also
playbooks included to create a new wiki on a wiki family and to clone a
wiki from one wiki family to another. I'm happy to accept patches to add
support to other platforms. You can clone the playbooks from
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/tools/ansible-wikifarm. From the
README file (you can read the entire file at
https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-tools-ansible-wikifarm):
This repository contains ansible playbooks for installing and configuring
MediaWiki wiki farms. A wiki farm can comprise multiple web front end
hosts, referred to as wiki families, each hosting multiple wikis. These
playbooks support either installing MediaWiki and its database on a single
host or splitting them between two tiers.
These playbooks will install MySQL, Apache, Squid, MediaWiki, and MediaWiki
skins/extensions in a single directory hierarchy (possibly separated between
two hosts as described above) and configure SELinux. This directory hierarchy
is self-contained, supporting migration between similarly configured hosts.
The wikis hosted by the wiki farms built by these playbooks will be accessed
over HTTPS with a permanenent redirect to HTTPS if accessed over HTTP. These
playbooks have been tested using ansible 2.0.1.0 to provision CentOS/RedHat 6
and 7 targets.

Hello,
I've got 9 old wikis running various versions of MW from 1.16 to 1.20.
All have their own database on a single database server. I've been
asked to move all of the wikis onto one app server sharing one
installation of MediaWiki. I understand that this is a wiki family
configuration.
Should I upgrade all of the wikis first, then move them?
Has anyone done this before using version 1.26 or greater and nginx as
the webserver?
Advice on the approach to take here would be appreciated.
I've tried to follow the instructions on the wiki family page, but
none seem to meet my requirements.
Thanks
Bill
Hi here,
Any chance someone can point me to why pywikibot works with a 1.24 mw
instance, but not with the 1.22 one?
I can login but I can't push pages using pagefromfile.
Any clues maybe?
Thanks,
Regards,
Rachid

Hi,
I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask this. I’m using foreground skin on my MW 1.26 but unfortunately the tabs are not showing up. Otherwise headertabs is running.
Firebug doesn’t find some errors. So what do you think is the reason for this?
Best regards...

Hi everyone,
EMWCon, the (first-ever) Enterprise MediaWiki Conference, is happening in
just two weeks, on May 25-27 in New York City. There will be at least 30
people attending, from a variety of different organizations and about five
different countries. The event will feature a lot of interesting talks as
well as a "Create Camp" on Friday, a sort of hackathon for both technical
and non-technical projects (and semi-technical ones).
It's not too late to register - if you're interested, go here:

Hi,
probably after an automatic upgrade of mediawiki software, the content of the
pages on linueve.org/old is no more visible. However the source code is still
in place.
What can I do ?
thanks for help

SolveMedia is an ad-based captcha. I have an ancient 1.19 with it that
works, but I can't get it to work with 1.26 on PHP 5.5.9. PHP in
strict/warnings mode throws up:
Notice: Undefined index: adcopy_challenge in
/home/funsites/www/rwtest.davidgerard.co.uk/w/extensions/SolveMedia/SolveMedia.php
on line 129
Notice: Undefined index: adcopy_response in
/home/funsites/www/rwtest.davidgerard.co.uk/w/extensions/SolveMedia/SolveMedia.php
on line 130
- but those are problems in the working version too.
The official SolveMedia extension was last updated in 2012 and that's
the version running on this 1.19.
Has anyone got this to work on any more recent MediaWikis?
(yes it's a terrible idea in several ways, but let's assume for the
moment it's considered a tolerable baseline.)
