(I should add -- also there would be complications if somehow lots of Wikimedia people get their talks accepted and I can't budget to subsidize all of them, or you can't get a visa to the US in time, or some unforeseen thing comes up like that.

Hi all, this is the great year for Wikidata and there is a big commotion around it. We'll have a lot of task with it and some of you may consider worth to subscribe to wikidata-l and see what's going on there. https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-l For an overview of the project see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata. -- Bináris

[Pywikipedia-l] Setting sleep time by family
by Bináris 04 Mar '12

04 Mar '12

I have a local wiki on my computer, Pywikibot naturally supplied. :-) I want to tell the bot not to sleep when it is time to work. I will sleep in the night and that's what I expect the bot to do. How can I tell the bot in config that for 'local' family it should *never*sleep and wait and throttle and lag? -- Bináris

[Pywikipedia-l] Encoding problem (Proposal for farewell of good old Python 2.4)
by Jan Dudík 01 Mar '12

01 Mar '12

Hello, according to dicuss aboutl farewell of Python 2.4 I tried to update my 2.5 to 2.7.2. And I have good reason for me to stay on old version I am using Windows XP cz (windows-1250) When I have in my user-config no console_encoding: Py 2.5 : -I have good czech characters in terminal window - I can write e.q. Interwiki.py Dobříš - I can write e.g. interwiki.py and after ask I write Dobříš = everything works well for me Py 2.6+ -I have bad czech characters in terminal window (ˇ instead of í, " " instead of á, nothing instead of ů, ý instead of ř....) - I can write e.q. Interwiki.py Dobříš - I can write e.g. interwiki.py and after ask I write Dobříš = I am not able to read in terminal window With console_encoding='windows-1250' Py 2.6+ -I have good czech characters in terminal window - I can write e.q. Interwiki.py Dobříš - I can't write e.g. interwiki.py and after ask I write Dobříš = I am not able to write to terminal window With console_encoding='utf-8' Py 2.6+ -I have bad non-base-ASCII characters in terminal window (two or three instead of one, translitertation for cyrilic or asian languages doesn't work - I can't write e.q. Interwiki.py Dobříš - bot crashes - I can't write e.g. interwiki.py and after ask I write Dobříš - bot crashes = I am not able to read or write to terminal window With console_encoding='ISO 8859-2' -I have good czech characters in terminal window - I can't write e.q. Interwiki.py Dobříš - page does not exist - I can't write e.g. interwiki.py and after ask I write Dobříš - page does not exist, bad chars in terminal window = I am not able to write to terminal window So, how to use py 2.6+ and with correct and usable encoding? Or, should I write this to survey page? JAnD

We have fixed bugs due to old py2.4 in r9227 and r9740 but I don't like it anymore if it diverges to the rewrite branch to much (or other future branches like 3.X support). interwiki.py is a good sample for really old code stuff like nested try statements for exception handling and finally handling. And we shouldn't be forced to keep code for pre 2.4 releases like "set" and "sorted". Regards xqt

[Pywikipedia-l] Fwd: Pywikipediabot development and git - want to switch?
by Merlijn van Deen 28 Feb '12

28 Feb '12

Hello All, As you might know, the mediawiki repository is switching to git. Sumana contacted me to find out whether the pywikipedia community would also be interested in switching. Possible reasons for switching are mainly related to to developer workflow: it's much easier to make small (local) commits, and we can do things like review-before-merge (even though I don't think this is a large issue). In addition, it's much easier to browse the history, and something like 'svn blame' does not take two decades. The obvious disadvantage is that people will have to switch: they will have to download new software (git / tortoisegit / whatever), change their repositories, et cetera. I can remember a discussion about this, but I cannot find it in my mail archives - so I'm guessing this was on IRC. As far as I am concerned - I'd like to stick with SVN for as long as possible. Even though I *really* like git, we don't gain much by switching. We don't really have the problems with code review mediawiki has, simply because we have much less code committed. However, if wikimedia takes down svn.wikimedia.org at a certain point, we might as well consider switching to a different version control system - essentially the same as what we did when we dropped sf.net for svn.wikimedia.org. Best, Merlijn
