I suppose there migt be possible to remove Google from action=edit things in the robot.txt? That must be the most effective global way of preventing Google to index action pages. -- Dan Koehl > Checking a bit more, I get the impression that google does not save the > contents of pages with "noindex" in their robots meta, but does remember > their URL.

Strange Google results seem to be on more wikis like the Swedish. Hopefully those IP marks can be removed. I found something when I serched for the word elephantkeeper on Google with http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=elephantkeeper&btnG=… The second hit is : http://www.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Talk:Elephantkeeper&action=edit Do we want serchengines to list action=edit on all pages?

"Show preview before edit box and not after it" for anons
by Kurt Jansson 14 Mar '03

14 Mar '03

Could we activate "Show preview before edit box and not after it" for anons? It seems more intuitive for me (I'm not sure it's even worth an option). Kurt

German Google search results
by Kurt Jansson 14 Mar '03

14 Mar '03

Dear coders! Why do Google search results for German Wp articles look so ugly (google bot IP address, etc.) compared to the English ones? See http://www.google.com/search?q=Babrak%20Karmal and http://www.google.com/search?q=Daseinsvorsorge Kurt

Footnotes?
by Sheldon Rampton 13 Mar '03

13 Mar '03

I think it would be nice if the Wiki syntax could facilitate footnoting of articles. For example: Some text.<footnote>foo</footnote> Some more text.<footnote>bar</footnote> Even more text. could produce the following HTML: Some text.<A HREF="#1">(1)</A> Some more text.<A HREF="#2">(2)</A> Even more text. <OL> <LI><A NAME="1">foo</LI> <LI><A NAME="2">bar</LI> </OL> -- -------------------------------- | Sheldon Rampton | Editor, PR Watch (www.prwatch.org) | Author of books including: | Friends In Deed: The Story of US-Nicaragua Sister Cities | Toxic Sludge Is Good For You | Mad Cow USA | Trust Us, We're Experts --------------------------------

Re: mailing list stuck?

The changes that Brion made have the load running high -- over 20. This keeps the website going, but has the unfortunate side effect of preventing mail distribution. I'm going to cut the MaxClients setting to 100 for a little while, to let the mailing lists function for a bit, and then bump it back up.

design changes
by Diana M Hsieh 13 Mar '03

13 Mar '03

Hi folks, I spent most of today getting wikipedia3 up and running on my (currently private development) server. Functionally, all seems to be working well. (Given that I'm a PERL and PostgreSQL kind of gal, I consider the working install to be nothing short of a small miracle!) My big challenge at present is to figure out how to substantially change the design of the site. From what I can see, that design is determined by the combination of the style sheets, Skin.php, and OutputPage.php. It looks like a small nightmare to fuss with. Is there some approach that might make it relatively easy or even somewhat easier? Oh, and thanks for the excellent software! :-) diana. *--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--* | diana mertz hsieh *--* diana(a)dianahsieh.com | | web *--* http://www.dianahsieh.com | | blog *--* http://www.noodlefood.org | *--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*
