Re: [Wikitech-l] [MediaWiki-CVS] SVN: [42234] trunk/extensions/CodeReview
by Chad 20 Oct '08

Well, the i18n seems to confuse the two terms as well :) It was intended to give a description on the tag listing page of what each tag meant. -Chad 2008/10/19 <brion(a)svn.wikimedia.org> > Revision: 42234 > Author: brion > Date: 2008-10-19 23:38:41 +0000 (Sun, 19 Oct 2008) > > Log Message: > ----------- > Revert r42155, r42163 and friends -- doesn't do anything.

[idea] flash movie for history view
by Tei 20 Oct '08

20 Oct '08

Maybe could be interesting to save a wiki Page as a Flash movie, with the frames as the versions of the page. With a slider to move back in time, or forward. First frame first edit, last frame last edit. You can even stream it, start with last frame, and send one before, and the one before that one.. etc.. and stop with the first one. Or even a "Save as PDF" button on the wikipedia. -- -- ℱin del ℳensaje.

Canonical namespace change coming: Image: -> File:
by Brion Vibber 18 Oct '08

18 Oct '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 As per long-time wistful desire, we're planning to rename the 'Image:' namespace to 'File:'. This will reduce confusion with audio, video, and document file uploads being called 'images' -- they're now all first-class citizens. :) This should go smoothly and transparently for most purposes. 'Image:' will continue to be an alias, and perhaps even recommended for inline usage. But some user scripts and bots might get confused, so we're giving warning first! Image description pages will now sit at the 'File:' title rather than the 'Image:' title, and the JavaScript variables and HTML body classes will reflect this, such as: var wgCanonicalNamespace = "File"; var wgPageName = "File:Wiki.png"; <body class="mediawiki ltr ns-6 ns-subject page-File_Wiki_png skin-monobook"> If your script or bot relies on wgCanonicalNamespace being 'Image', or the value of the language-specific prefix, consider updating it to allow both 'Image' and 'File' or check the number instead (6). I've made a patch against r41626 and attached it to the bug: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44 Unless there's a major issue, my plan is to commit it one week from today. Once the core English namespace is changed, other localizations may update their localized namespace names and aliases at their convenience. Please *do not* update localizations before it's been committed! - -- brion -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkjqV84ACgkQwRnhpk1wk45odgCdEj4f0EWh3/l5+a1txTQbUJOu uEsAoLDS32CQK7J/cHnwK84N01Afnk2Q =oSxs -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

while we are at it...
by Daniel Kinzler 17 Oct '08

17 Oct '08

Hello all I'd also like to say officially hello - I have been around for a while (on Wikis/IRC as Duesentrieb, in SVN as daniel), but I'm officially working for Wikimedia Germany as a Developer now since October 1st. Currently I'm mainly doing Webserver stuff for WMDE, and poking at the toolserver. But I expect to get into MediaWiki/Extension development some more soon. So much to code, so little time :) -- daniel

Introducing myself.
by Tei 16 Oct '08

16 Oct '08

Hello. My nickname is Tei. I have already posted a few messages on the list, but I think that introduction may be necessary. I am professional web developper (PHP), with some experience on amateur game design (OpenGL), and experimental web technology (XUL, JSON2JSON, spiders, etc..) I started on the wikipedia in 2002, with just a few contributions, years later I have regain interest in the wikipedia. My main interest here is to make the wikipedia more interesting for the hacker and internet culture. And sing the portal song. - 3D and games and web - Markup Languages - experimental - experimental - experimental - *this silver bullet reserved* - PHP - UTF-8 ( all Hail Unicode! ) -- -- ℱin del ℳensaje.

Image scaling
by Tim Starling 16 Oct '08

16 Oct '08

The image scaling task has been moved to Ubuntu 8.04 servers. Along the way, some software versions have changed: ImageMagick upgraded from 6.2.8 to 6.3.7 (Q8 custom build) Rsvg from 2.14.0 to 2.22.2 (with security patch) FFmpeg: upgraded from patched r10291 to Ubuntu stock DjVu: upgraded from 3.5.17 to 3.5.20 Fonts: generally upgraded with more coverage Originally I only tested the merged rsvg security patch to make sure it was secure, and indeed, rsvg-convert still can't read any local files. But it also can't read its input file specified on the command line. So I'm using stdin for now. Keep an eye out for odd rendering of SVGs, e.g. bad font selection. Submit a bug if you see anything like that. -- Tim Starling
