Most of the time, text justification (right and left aligned) does not
look good for web pages. This is, because webbrowser do not hyphenate
long word. Text justification may work for English text because on
average words are not that long. It mostly sucks for languages like
German and in situations when text areas are small (captions of pictures
within <gallery>).
For an example, see
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nuremberg#Johannis_Church_Cemetery
(first row, third and fourth image).

Hi,
I can see one of the languages has got it's own subdomain on wikisource.
he.wikisource.org
Will eventually all the languages will have their own subdomain?

Now when I succeded to install MediaWiki 1.3.8, with it´s own monobook
skin, IE6 is displaying the personal toolbar at the upper left hand
side.
I tried to edit the file main.css, especially the lines
/*
** the personal toolbar
*/
#p-personal {
width:100%;
white-space:nowrap;
padding:0 0 0 0;
margin:0;
position:absolute;
left:0px;
top:0px;
z-index: 0;
border: none;
background: none;
overflow: visible;
line-height: 1.2em;
}
#p-personal h5 {
display:none;
}
#p-personal .portlet,
#p-personal .pBody {
padding:0;
margin:0;
border: none;
z-index:0;
overflow: visible;
background: none;
}
/* this is the ul contained in the portlet */
#p-personal ul {
border: none;
line-height: 1.4em;
color: #2f6fab;
padding: 0em 2em 0 3em;
margin: 0;
text-align: right;
text-transform: lowercase;
list-style: none;
z-index:0;
background: none;
}
#p-personal li {
z-index:0;
border:none;
padding:0;
display: inline;
color: #2f6fab;
margin-left: 1em;
line-height: 1.2em;
background: none;
}
#p-personal li a {
text-decoration: none;
color: #005896;
padding-bottom: 0.2em;
background: none;
}
#p-personal li a:hover {
background-color: White;
padding-bottom: 0.2em;
text-decoration: none;
}
without any success.
I´m not a specialist on CSS, so if you can help...

To the server admins:
upload.wikimedia.org is currently running apache, but is only serving
static image files as far as I can tell.
You should consider using thttpd instead, which uses less memory and
would lower the load averages. It also seems to handle more simultaneous
users than apache.

License is BSD, there is a debian package.
Anyway, this is just some (probably impractical) idea I just had...

I'm forwarding this to Wikitech-l and see if the devs can have a go at it.

Hi
can anyone give a brief idea on the status of PHP5 and MediaWiki?
Specifically:
- is the 1.3 series PHP5 compatible?
- can PHPTal templates developed with 1.3 be used with PHP5 and
in 1.4 without (major) modification?
Thanks

Hoi,
For whatever reason there is this silly sign that should indicate that a
link is external.
It is a silly thing for two reasons:
*It does not show itself in an IE browser
*When it is used in a language that is left to right like Arabic or
Hebrew, it insists on being on the right side of the word in effect
blocking out the first character.
Could we PLEASE get rid of this silly thing. And if someone insists on
keeping it, could it be fixed so that it behaves properly ...
Thanks,
GerardM
Hallo Wikipedia Team
ich hab ein Problem mit der mediawiki software, und man hat mich wegen der
deutschen Sprache an Euch verwiesen.
Ich habe die Software installiert (vers. 1.4), und es funktioniert soweit
einwandfrei, nur wenn ich einen User als admin bestimmen will, bekomme ich
einen MySql Fehler:
Es gab einen Syntaxfehler in der Datenbankabfrage. Die letzte
Datenbankabfrage lautete:
REPLACE INTO wikiwikiuser_rights (ur_user,ur_rights) VALUES ('3','sysop
bureaucrat')
aus der Funktion "MakesysopForm::doSubmit". MySQL meldete den Fehler "1146:
Table 'cultsoftessen_de.wikiwikiuser_rights' doesn't exist".
Ich bin leider mit diesem Fehler überfordert, könnt Ihr mir da einen Rat
oder Tipp geben?
Vielen Dank für Eure Mühe
Mit freundlichem Gruß
