needs around 10€ a day for Wikimedia servers and traffics? A saw a
number during the 50.000$ campaing but I cannot remember.
Greetings,

Hi
I need this feature in the software: The ability to delete specific History
versions of an article.
Are you plan implementing it in MW1.4? If not I would welcome if some
developer would volunteer to make this work for me.
Thanks,

I work with the recent CVS 1.4 - fresh installation, fresh database - but have NO ADMIN rights with the recent CVS version.
Special Page Admin List shows: (none)
Is it due to the recent introduction of user_rights table ?
But how to set up the rights and where to find the documentation about this new feature ?
Who can assist ?
I checked with the last person that posted a similar request so apologies if
this email breaks the rules ...

Hi,
it has come to my attention that certain Browsers seem to insert
question marks as a replacement for characters they don't support. If
one of these poor people is editing an article, it will end up in
breaking all non-latin characters.
This is one example.
http://de.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Kabbala&diff=2653437&oldid=26534…
I think that it is a almost-ever-true assumption that there are no
articles that are consisting of more than one question mark, if any.
So whenever an interwiki gets altered into [[he:????]], there has to be
something wrong.
a) Could an skilled wikipedian searach for a list of articles that
contain interwikis that are full of question marks?
b) could an even more skilled wikipedian think of a script that checks
article changes for this behavior and
1. denies the article change
2. cries for help
3. informs the author that his browser should be seen as a
relict of a past millenium?
Breaking interwiki links and other non-latin characters is not cool.
Just say no to interwiki-breaking.
Thanks.

Stop me if you've heard this one before...I have started working on
creating a Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike Non-Commercial
mediawiki site at http://filmapart.net/ . I intend for the site to be
a repository of high-quality video and audio which users may access and
use to create edited multimedia (documentary, short, even feature)
content.
The Wikiness of the site should allow for users to edit one another's
footage and finished content with the mediawiki versioning system and
authorship history fulfilling the full purpose of the creative commons
license.
I realize that average internet access speeds are not up to the task of
transferring such large files at this time, and I also realize that
coding such a system could take quite a long time, but perhaps the
system could be finished and integrated into MediaWiki by the time such
transfer speeds are commonly available.
I'm just throwing this idea out there today. If any of you have any
comment or suggestion, I encourage your participation. If this is
something y'all are already working on, count me in and take me to your
leaders.

I am relatively new to the MediaWiki and PHP scene. I am working with a
few people setting up a wiki for our floor, http://csh.rit.edu One
thing I am trying to do is set access control based on whether a user is
logged in for now. We have some information on there that we might only
want members to see, but most information would be public. I have a few
things I am trying to do, and any help in at least the right direction
to look for the information would be useful. If I was not supposed to
ask this question here, please let me know and feel free to delete it.
But here it goes...:
- I want to make a PHP process so that anything encapsulate in
<private></private> is not rendered if the user is not logged in.
- I would like to know if there is an easy way to add pages to the
anonymous whitelist, and possibly if there is a way for a user to
specify if the page should be whitelisted or not
- Finally, we would like it if there was a way for mediawiki to not
process any [[links]] that the user does not have access to, so that
they won't even know that there is a page there.
I would like to implement these things, and would most definitely
contribute them to the project if they work. Any feedback would be
greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place. I looked in many places
trying to find what amounts to a user forum. Apologies if this is the
wrong place, and would be grateful to link to where I need to go.
I installed a test wiki with the new 1.3.7 security update. You can see
it at http://testwiki.itkitchen.info. I used redirects to remove
index.php from the URL, just as I do with my wiki running 1.3.6, here
http://wiki.itkitchen.info.
As you can see the performance, well, sucks. Big time.
We've tried other installations and other mods with the .htaccess, but
nothing works. If we use .htaccess to eliminate the index.php from the
URL, the performance is bad. If we don't, performance is good.
Anyone have any modifications to .htaccess that should accompany the update?
Many thanks
Shelley
Hi fellow wikipedians ;-)
I exchanged emails with Brion about
ideas for setting up a local wiki running
on either Linspire, Mac OSX, or Windows.
I'm doing a presentation on Wikipedia
for a couple of conferences in NH,
about 120 educators and admins
will be attending the presentations,
at the McAuliffe Conference and the
NHAWLT conference.
Do you have ideas as to what would
be the easier setup and what would
be a good perhaps thorough enough
introduction to Wikimedia and its projects?
Any input on this is welcome.
with regards always,
Jay B.
