[Pywikipedia-l] Urlencoded section titles
by Bináris 13 Sep '18

13 Sep '18

Happy Monday, There are strange people who make such links (kindof urlencoded?): [[Második világháború#Partrasz.C3.A1ll.C3.A1s Szic.C3.ADli.C3.A1ban .28Huskey hadm.C5.B1velet.29|Huskey hadműveletben]] So the section title must have been copied from the URL. Do we have a ready tool to fix these? -- Bináris

[Pywikipedia-l] Template parsing code
by Hannes Röst 02 Sep '16

02 Sep '16

Hello all >From one of my assignments as a bot operator I have some code which does template parsing and general text parsing (e.g. Image/File tags). It is not using regex and thus able to correctly parse nested templates and other such nasty things. I have written those as library classes and written tests for them which cover almost all of the code. I would now really like to contribute that code back to the community. Would you be interested in adding this code to the pywikibot framework? If yes, can I send the code to someone for code review or how do you usually operate? Greetings Hannes PS: wiki userpage is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Hannes_R%C3%B6st

[Pywikipedia-l] Recursive HTML entities
by Fabian Neundorf 16 Mar '15

16 Mar '15

I've been working on html2unicode in the last days and I stumbled upon the fact that a & also works as a normal ampersand, so that &amp; for example gets converted into &. Now the commit which introduced it into core (fc61025 [1]) is not really descriptive so I searched in compat's code and found the corresponding commit f97dfb0 [2]. There it links to the discussion on @xqt's talk page [3] which doesn't really explain what is happening there. The API never returns HTML entities unless it's the content of a page. I've been testing [4] such a link and [[&]] does work but not [[&amp;]]. Also the entitey   gets properly encoded, but [[&nbsp;]] also only once. My question here is why is it necessary and especially in core which only does API requests which shouldn't suffer from such a problem it could be changed probably. The only reason I see if something is decoding text improperly and converts   into &nbsp; which shouldn't be our concern.

[Pywikipedia-l] Time for breaking changes
by Ricordisamoa 05 Mar '15

05 Mar '15

I have a bunch of breaking changes I'd like to make to the framework's API; some of them are already in Gerrit ([1] <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/178579>, [2] <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/178647>). John Vandenberg said they can be merged after the 2.0 release, but I don't see a schedule yet. How long are we supposed to wait?

[Pywikipedia-l] Pywikibot: Implement support for OAuth - Google Summer of Code
by Akash Agarwal 04 Mar '15

04 Mar '15

Hi, I am a student at International Institute of Information Technology Hyderabad, India. I plan to participate in GSoC this year. I was browsing the potential projects under Mediawiki and found Pywikibot: Implement support for OAuth <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T74065> project really interesting and related to my domain of interest. I would like to apply for the project. I have a very good understanding of the mediawiki architecture including the API. I had developed a mediawiki extension to support Peer Evaluation <https://github.com/akashagarwal/peer-evaluation> in wiki courses for the OERu as part of last year's GSoC. It consists of simple API's, tags and some javascript. I am also about to complete another extension for CEMCA <http://www.cemca.org.in/>in which I am adapting the TIPS framework for quality assurance <http://www.cemca.org.in/publicationhome/quality-assurance-guidelines-open-e…> for wiki based articles. It would be great if you could help me on how to proceed.
