default fallback language
by demagggus 30 Oct '07

30 Oct '07

Hi @all, can somebody tell me how to change the "default fallback language"? I tried to replace the 'en' language-code in the following lines (Language.php) to realise it. But seems there are more changes to do. if ( $code != 'en' ) { $fallback = 'en'; } else { $fallback = false; } This leads to the following warning-message on the one hand: Warning: array_slice() [function.array-slice]: The first argument should be an array in F:\xampp\htdocs\mediawiki-1.11.0\languages\Language.php on line 1153 and to a incorrect output of the 'edit'-links like this on the other hand: <editsection-brackets>

Article text from MySQL
by Osnat Etgar 30 Oct '07

30 Oct '07

Hi All, I have the entire page-articles dump in MySQL database now. I understand that all the text is supposed to be in the "text" table, but I can only find redirections there. How do I get the actual text? How do I get the info boxes? How do I work with the database to get any information in general? Where can I find extraction from MySQL examples? Thanks Osnat P Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail

Question of Queries in Wikipedia Data...
by Fawad Nazir 30 Oct '07

30 Oct '07

First of all i would apologize if this question is not related to this community. I am trying to run the following query on the Wikipedia data and this query is running for the last 36 hours now. Can anyone please tell me is this normal time for such queries on Wikipedia data? Another questions is: Do we have some service where we can query offline wikipedia data and get our desired results? select rev_page, rev_user, rev_user_text, count(rev_user) from revision where rev_user IN ( select r1.rev_user from revision r1, revision r2 where r1.rev_user <> r2.rev_user and r1.rev_user <> 0 and r2.rev_user <> 0 and r1.rev_page = r2.rev_page group by r1.rev_user ) group by rev_user order by rev_page, rev_user; -- Fawad Nazir http://www.geocities.com/nazir_fawad/

New option $wgUseNPPatrol allows for patrolling of new pages for projects where the overall editing rate is too high to make patrolling useful in the general case.

tag-extension...displaying only the matched content
by demagggus 29 Oct '07

29 Oct '07

Hi, I try to display just a part of the content in an article, by using attributes within a tag extension. The non-matched content isn't displayed indeed, but it leeds to empty space in the middle of the article. Is it maybe possible to cut of the matched content in some way, so that these gaps disappear? greets...demagggus

hello, the pywikipedia subversion repository was damaged and contained revisions with invalid properties like 'svn:executable *.txt', which caused the svn client to give errors and not work. i have repaired it by manually renaming these broken properties. - river.
