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.

The Tech Department at Wikimedia Foundation [1] invites you to a* special
event on February 09, 2023, at 1600 UTC* [2].
*Richard Evans, Electronics & Data Systems Engineer At NASA Glenn Research
Center *[3], will be presenting on *how MediaWiki is being used within NASA*
to help manage the testing of very large spacecraft to prove they can
survive the harsh conditions of launch, orbit, and re-entry. The management
platform is built from MediaWiki and several key extensions that provide
workflow support. This evolving platform plans to incorporate the
extensions that form the MediaWiki-powered Open CSP platform [4]. This talk
will explain the architecture and benefits of the NASA platform and
motivate the need for Open CSP. We’ll also be recording the event to share
with those who can’t make it. You can join the event through Google Meet
[5].
Looking forward to seeing you there,
*--on behalf of the Tech Department, Wikimedia Foundation.*

The usual error.
> Error generating thumbnail
> Error creating thumbnail: Image was not scaled, is the requested width bigger than the source?
It's true.
But is there some setting or extension to permit doing that?
Cheers,

Hello,
Our Mediawiki has just been upgraded from 1.35.8 to 1.39. update.php was run. All seems fine except an issue with Proofread Page extension and .djvu files. <pagelist> is no longer populated with the list of pages, "invalid interval" is reported. Individual pages from .djvu are also not rendered with Page:file.djvu/pagenumber. Proofread Page still works with PDF files.
Here is an example of non-working index page:
https://lituapedija.net/wiki/Indeksas:LE01.djvu
It work for PDF and this is how it looked for .djvu too before upgrade:
https://lituapedija.net/wiki/Indeksas:LE01.pdf
I don't see anything relevant in mediawiki debug log. Mediawiki is running on Debian Bullseye (current stable), https://lituapedija.net/wiki/Specialus:Versija.
Any hints or help would be greatly appreciated!
