Hi Everyone,
During a Mediawiki 1.34.3 to Mediawiki 1.34.4 upgrade... When updating
vendor components using 'php -d extension=phar.so composer.phar
update':
Package wikimedia/password-blacklist is abandoned, you should avoid
using it. Use wikimedia/common-passwords instead.
Package jakub-onderka/php-parallel-lint is abandoned, you should avoid
using it. Use php-parallel-lint/php-parallel-lint instead.
Package jakub-onderka/php-console-color is abandoned, you should avoid
using it. Use php-parallel-lint/php-console-color instead.
Package jakub-onderka/php-console-highlighter is abandoned, you should
avoid using it. Use php-parallel-lint/php-console-highlighter instead.
Package phpunit/php-token-stream is abandoned, you should avoid using
it. No replacement was suggested.
Package phpunit/phpunit-mock-objects is abandoned, you should avoid
using it. No replacement was suggested.
I don't add things to vendor/, and I did not install packages like
password-blacklist or php-parallel-lint. It looks like these are part
of a Mediawiki installation.
/var/www/html/wiki# find . -name password-blacklist
./vendor/wikimedia/password-blacklist
/var/www/html/wiki# find . -name php-parallel-lint
./vendor/jakub-onderka/php-parallel-lint

Hi Everyone,
I'm currently on Mediawki 1.34. I want to migrate to Mediawiki 1.35.
I'd like to run a script to verify the machine is in the proper state
for a Mediawiki 1.35 migration. I want to ensure Linux, MySQL, Apache,
PHP, and friends satisfy 1.35's requirements.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.35 discusses the need for a
PHP version but not other requirements. There are too many Changelog's
(there are 33 of them). It is too much work for a simple task.
Does Mediawki provide a script to verify requirements? If so, where
can I find it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The latest episode of the MediaWiki podcast "Between the Brackets" features
an interview with Grant Ingersoll, the CTO of the Wikimedia Foundation. We
talked about how Mediawiki compares to other open-source projects,
innovation at the Wikimedia Foundation, and a lot of other topics. You can
listen to the episode here:

Indeed, the width and breadth of your contributions to Wikimedia and
MediaWiki have been nothing short of amazing, Amir. Thank you for
initiating and guiding through this much needed visual update!
Also thanks to everyone who contributed a logo design! We had quite a few
strong contenders.

I just installed LDAP Authentication and it worked fine after setting it
with $wgAuthManagerAutoConfig:
$wgAuthManagerAutoConfig['primaryauth'] += [
LdapPrimaryAuthenticationProvider::class => [
'class' => LdapPrimaryAuthenticationProvider::class,
'args' => [[
'authoritative' => true,
]],
'sort' => 50,
],
];
I can enable either LdapPrimaryAuthenticationProvider or
LocalPasswordPrimaryAuthenticationProvider, but not both. I can switch
the authentication method by changing the value for the 'sort' key
(LocalPasswordPrimaryAuthenticationProvider has 'sort' => 100), but I
couldn't figure out how to allow both LDAP and local accounts.
I tried to set 'authoritative' => true, and I also tried it as false,
but none of them seem to work.
Is there anything I'm missing?
Thanks.
Hello people!
So the voting period is done now and the second proposal is the clear
winner.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Proposal_for_changing_logo_of_MediaW…
163 people participated and these are the top winners using Schulze method:
* 2: Gradient (translucent - CamelCase)
* 8: Yellow (solid - CamelCase)
* 6: Yellow (translucent - CamelCase)
Comparing 2 and 8, 92 people preferred 2 over 8 while 71 people preferred
the other way around.
Now we are in the legal clearance period (which hopefully will take a
month) and once it's over, we will start implementing the change, if 2
doesn't get cleared, 8 will be implemented and so on.
Thank you for everyone who participated (except myself, thanking myself
would be weird)

Hello,
I noticed that recently the interface of the french wikipedia had changed. Surprisingly, it doesn't seem to be the case on the english wikipedia.
Is it the right place here to make some remarks about it?
Thanks
Pascal
