Hello , I would like to know whether you have a script that scans links connections and adds them in the table linkы so that Whatlinkshere works well. I look forward to your reply. -- Best regards, wiki mailto:wiki@tatet.com

MediaWiki 1.3.0 released
by Brion Vibber 12 Aug '04

12 Aug '04

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 After an annoyingly long series of beta releases, say hello to MediaWiki 1.3.0! Everyone running the beta releases is _strongly_ recommended to upgrade to the current code. This release includes a security fix: the 1.3.0 beta releases may be vulnerable to a PHP inclusion attack if include files are exposed and you have allow_url_fopen and register_globals on (this is the default configuration in PHP 4.1.x, but register_globals is off by default in 4.2.x and later). Note that while MediaWiki through 1.1 required register_globals to be on, 1.2 and 1.3 *do not*. If you have register_globals on, you should turn it off unless you are absolutely sure you require it for some other package. See http://php.net/register_globals for general information.

Hurricane watch
by Jimmy (Jimbo) Wales 11 Aug '04

11 Aug '04

Tropical storm Charley has just been upgraded to Hurricane Charley, and it is headed more or less my way. http://hurricane.tbo.com/ I particularly recommend that we keep a watch on 'strike probabilities', see: http://hurricane.weathercenter.com/statements/strike/strike3.htm At the moment, the National Weather Service is projecting a 28% chance of a hit on Tampa through 8AM EDT on Sat Aug 14. Although I think our facility is well-poised to withstand a fairly substantial weather situation, we might want to start thinking in advance about offsite backups. --Jimbo

minoredit...and al
by xmlizer 11 Aug '04

11 Aug '04

Hi We look together with looxix last night to set correctly the display of the minoredit legend part in [[mediawiki:histlegend]] in fr.wikipedia.org We saw that : * in history page, the HTML is m * in contibutions, it is m * in recentchanges, it is "m" taken from [[mediawiki:minoreditletter]] the best, I hope, is m put in a [[mediawiki:minoreditletter]] used everywhere in the soft so as to change display in CSS (bold or not, italic or not, showed or not) so as if some wiki want to change the letter depending on the langage it would be on a single place Am I missing some important thing Xmlizer

I've started setting up a bugzilla at http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/ The MonoBook-style template was adapted by Timwi. Please don't start puttings bugs in there _just_ yet, it needs some further tweaks and isn't 100% set up. -- brion vibber (brion @ pobox.com)

Behavior of list markup
by James Grier 11 Aug '04

11 Aug '04

We are experimenting with MediaWiki, but are suffering from the fact that many of us use bulletted paragraphs, viz.: I can't find a way to do a single list item on more than one line. I.e. if I do * List item. This list item is intended to all be in the same paragraph, but it doesn't quite work. what I get from wiki is: * List item. This list item is intended to all be in the same paragraph, but it doesn't quite work. whereas what I want is: * List item. This list item is intended to all be in the same paragraph, but it doesn't quite work. The ':', '*', and '#' tags all have the same behavior - any newline terminates the indentation or list. While this behavior is great if you're doing: * Item the first * Item the second ** Subitem it seems that lookahead to the next line to look for the possible tag produces better results. Is there any way around this? Great stuff otherwise :-) Thanks Jim Grier

Bughunt - New one?
by Magnus Manske 10 Aug '04

10 Aug '04

When I changes my preferences at the test site, I got Notice: Undefined index: action in /home/wikipedia/common/php-new/header-dump.php on line 4 I hope the real 1.3.0 doesn't do this...

Error message
by Timwi 10 Aug '04

10 Aug '04

Hi, I got the following error message: Mailing mediawiki-cvs(a)wikimedia.org... Generating notification message... Traceback (most recent call last): File "/cvsroot/sitedocs/CVSROOT/cvstools/syncmail", line 433, in ? main() File "/cvsroot/sitedocs/CVSROOT/cvstools/syncmail", line 426, in main contextlines, fromhost, replyto) File "/cvsroot/sitedocs/CVSROOT/cvstools/syncmail", line 224, in blast_mail pwinfo = pwd.getpwuid(os.getuid()) KeyError: getpwuid(): uid not found when I tried to commit a change. The change was committed successfully, but as a result of this error, one message in mediawiki-cvs is missing. Since I don't know if this error is due to SourceForge or us, I thought I'd post about it here in case it is important. Timwi

Bughunt
by Brion Vibber 10 Aug '04

Well, it seems we've slipped -- we're actually up 2 open bugs from yesterday. Nonetheless, we *did* go down about 95 open bugs over a sustained one-week period. That's pretty bad-ass for a few guys sitting in front of their computer screens. ;) 1.3.0 final release should come in the next couple of days once we square away the documentation and whatnot a little bit. -- brion vibber (brion @ pobox.com)
