I distinctly remember there was a way to add a title to a special page
simply by entering in a URL, then adding the title to the wiki edit
field, and then saving. The new "writing a new special page" how-to is
very confusing - and it wants me to write PHP to get the title to show
up. There was an easier way...
I can't find this how-to anywhere- though I'm sure it used to exist. FX
can you walk me through how you've added a wiki page title to a special
page?
Thanks!

That page seems to have changed, it now just has a pointer to an
article about writing an extension which really doesn't seem to build
a special page.
I just figured out how to build a new special page which is like the
Uncategorized pages page, but looks at the Image namespace. I wrote it
up at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Writing_a_new_special_page

I'm currently trying to adapt several gadgets that are meant for wikis using the Monobook/Vector skins to the Monaco skin, and so far, I've managed to successfully port over the UTC Clock gadget and Sandbox page gadget to Monaco, but aside from those I've been having trouble since, frankly, my knowledge of Javascript/JQuery is slim and I'm not familiar with all the variables used in writing user scripts. I've fairly decent with CSS style sheets, but I still need help with Javascript, so does anyone know of some good resources I could look into, preferably tailored for writing scripts on MediaWiki?
Also, if anyone wants to see what I have done so far (and have released publicly), the wiki I have been testing my live gadget/user script code on is here:
https://mediawikitesters.orain.org/wiki/Main_Page
Has the parser just been changed with regards to tildes (~~~~) inside
HTML comments? It appears they used to be ignored, and are now
suddenly being replaced en masse the next time someone edits the page
(and can't be easily reverted - it just changes the sig to the
reverter's instead). See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_creation/2006-06-02-ear…
for an example.

Hello everybody!
Some time ago, I asked this question on the Wikimedia Development Support forums [1], but unfortunately nobody answered. Mabye here on the mailing list someone can help me.
I want to change the configuration of the Parsoid service dynamically, without modifying the `config.yaml`/`localsettings.js` and restarting the service.
My use case is simple: I need _one_ Parsoid to serve multiple MediaWikis instances. And I need to be able to add new instances without the need to reconfigure/restart Parsoid everytime.
The logic would be "If the calling MediaWiki instance sends 'ABC' as a prefix, the API url of that instance will be 'https://myserver/wikis/ABC/api.php'".
I have the strong feeling that overriding the `parsoidConfig` object in `localsettings.js` will be the way to go. Am I on the right track?
Your hints and suggestions are much appreciated.

Hi,
I'd like to discuss potential improvements to www.mediawiki.org (the
front page itself), both regarding content and presentation, as I see
several issues with the current page.
I propose to discuss this in several stages:
* Defining audiences,
* defining content per group,
* defining presentation and layout.
My main intention are improvements to allow our audiences to better
find the relevant information that they are looking for.
We might not be able to make everything perfect but we can certainly
try to make it better?
If this sounds interesting, please take a look at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki/Homepage_improvements_2018
and let's discuss on the corresponding discussion page and work on
this?
Thank you!
andre

Hi,
While preparing the last MediaWiki security release, we (Reedy & I)
noticed that the mediawiki-core variant of the tarball that doesn't
include the bundled extensions/skins is treated differently than the
normal tarball. So we have two questions that will help us prioritize
future release process improvements.
If you don't use the special mediawiki-core tarball, you can ignore the
rest of this message.
1. Briefly, why do you use the mediawiki-core tarball instead of the
standard tarball that includes extensions/skins?
2. Would you benefit from having a patch file (example[1]), like the one
we currently generate for the standard mediawiki tarball?
Replies on or off list are fine. This is mostly an informal survey, we
don't have any plans yet and are mostly trying to gauge usage first.

Hi,
I have mediawiki latest version running on my domain. I was trying to
enable page previews that are descrined here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Page_Previews
The first problem I encountered is that there's no Enable/Disable previews
option at the buttom of the pages/site and there's no option to
enable/disable that in the preferences for user accounts.
So I have solved this by installing the Populs extencion from:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Popups
I now have page previews enabled for internal links.
Now I am trying to enable the same page previews for interwiki links and
other external links that I have all over my wiki. Is this at all possible
and how do I do it?
Please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

It have been working before, but now when I try to set up RESTBase, it doesn't works anymore.
