We are having a technical probem with blocking on en which is causing some important social problems. Basically, what happens is this: some vandal gets on and does some damage. They are blocked by an admin (let's say RickK for exaxmpe), which blocks the name and the ip number. But they are coming in through an AOL proxy that is used by many others (let's say Danny for exampe). So in order that he might use Wikipedia, Danny removes the block, which is thus annoying to RickK. It seems that there could be several little technical measures to overcome this. Ip blocks for vandals is a good idea, but there should be some easy ways to poke through them. For example, the ip blocks could simply be blocks against anonymous (ip-only) editing and new-account editing, permitting existing users to seamlessly connect anyway. Or, we could have a whitelist. --Jimbo -- "La nÃ¨fle est un fruit." - first words of 50,000th article on fr.wikipedia.org

Is it possible to change $IP from absolute path to relative path?

by Kiss All

I think it is would be better to have a relative path. Then the whole mediawiki source tree could run from any directory without modification. -- Be good....

Hidden/protected page in MediaWiki

by Jakob

Hi, I'd like to set up a Portal with MediaWiki. It should be open for everyone but we also need a place for internal data like private telephon numbers and text that should only be available within the project management. Is there the posibility to hide a specific 'intern'-namespace (or the 'projectname'-namespace) making it only read/write - accesible for selected registered user? Ideas? Solutions? Thanks a lot, Jakob

BUG: pagenames having apostroph (watchlist.php, skin.php and more?) are not correctly treated

by Thomas Gries

THIS APPEARS TO BE BUG 413 in bugzilla. I put a possible *solution* - added wfStrencode( "pagetitle" ) on several place in Article.php - into the bugzilla system, bug 413, reported by Andreas Hoerstemeier. Tom Berlin/Germany P.S. I apologise deeply not having consulted the bugzilla system before. (as I don't like it, because it is too complicated for me, coming from UseMod. But from now on, I *will* follow your rules to use this system in order to help us all.) [... orignal note archived in BUGZILLA as a follow-up to bug 413 ...] [...] I have set up a testpage having an apostroph such as User:Nyxos/testpage_and_users'_guide . When you put it into your watchlist or visit recent changes view, the apostroph is (still) coded as %27 instead of being re-rendered as apostrophe. W.r.t. recent changes listing and/or watchlist using the same modules: Live example page: linktext = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Nyxos/testpage_and_users%27_guide link underneath the linktext is coded as = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Nyxos/testpage_and_users%2527_guide [... orignal note archived in BUGZILLA as a follow-up to bug 413 ...]

Why $wgCheckFileExtensions=false does not work?

by Kiss All

Hi all, I just want let users upload all files other than the blacklist so I set it to false. But it still keeps warning me like: Upload file >From HPCWiki Upload warning ".pdf" is not a recommended image file format. Is it a bug or something else? # grep -r 'wgCheckFileExtensions' * includes/SpecialUpload.php: global $wgCheckFileExtensions, $wgStrictFileExtensions; includes/SpecialUpload.php: if ( $wgCheckFileExtensions ) { includes/DefaultSettings.php:$wgCheckFileExtensions = false; -- Be good....

enabling categories in 1.2.6

by Stan Wiechers

Hi! I'm running mediawiki 1.2.6 on debian. Everything works fine except that I don't seem to be able to use categories. I have some docs with tags like: [[Category:People]] [[Category:Design]] What I want to is to have pages like: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Social_psychology I created a page in my wiki: http://host/wikidev/index.php/Category:People And the only tag I have in there is: [[Category:People]] But there is not output. How do I enable that? Also I'm missing "/wikidev/index.php/Special:Categories" Can somebody help me setting this up? If that is not the right group to post that message could you refer me to a different one? Any help is greatly appreciated! Wiki Rocks! Stan

Why is DL/DD (rather than CSS) used for indented text?

by David Iberri

DL/DD is meant for definition lists, so why are we using them for indentation? IMO, it's almost as bad as using blockquotes for indenting. Wouldn't it be better to use <p style="margin-left:40px"> indented text </p> rather than <dl><dd> indented text </dd></dl> ? I'm guessing the answer is that not all browsers support the margin* attributes, or that somehow the DL/DD combination is more widely supported. I just figure if we're going to eventually produce 100% valid XHTML, we may as well use it properly :-) Thanks, David Iberri
