Hi everyone,
I recently set up a MediaWiki (http://server.bluewatersys.com/w90n740/)
and I need to extra the content from it and convert it into LaTeX
syntax for printed documentation. I have googled for a suitable OSS
solution but nothing was apparent.
I would prefer a script written in Python, but any recommendations
would be very welcome.
Do you know of anything suitable?
Kind Regards,
Hugo Vincent,
Bluewater Systems.
Sorry about bugging the list about it, but can anyone please explain
the reason for not enabling the Interlanguage extension?
See bug 15607 -
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15607
I believe that enabling it will be very beneficial for many projects
and many people expressed their support of it. I am not saying that
there are no reasons to not enable it; maybe there is a good reason,
but i don't understand it. I also understand that there are many other
unsolved bugs, but this one seems to have a ready and rather simple
solution.
I am only sending it to raise the problem. If you know the answer, you
may comment at the bug page.
Thanks in advance.

I've been putting placeholder images on a lot of articles on en:wp.
e.g. [[Image:Replace this image male.svg]], which goes to
[[Wikipedia:Fromowner]], which asks people to upload an image if they
own one.
I know it's inspired people to add free content images to articles in
several cases. What I'm interested in is numbers. So what I'd need is
a list of edits where one of the SVGs that redirects to
[[Wikipedia:Fromowner]] is replaced with an image. (Checking which of
those are actually free images can come next.)
Is there a tolerably easy way to get this info from a dump? Any
Wikipedia statistics fans who think this'd be easy?
(If the placeholders do work, then it'd also be useful convincing some
wikiprojects to encourage the things. Not that there's ownership of
articles on en:wp, of *course* ...)

Hello everyone.
I want to propose changing {{SITENAME}} in jawp. But I don't know how
to, and who can do it. Editing some pages, requesting to server
administrators or anything... Please teach me what I have to.
Thank you.

Can we take this discussion back to wikitech-l now, please, and focus on
specific, concrete proposals for syntax reform and/or language replacement?

Greetings.
Can anyone provide a status update regarding flaggedrevs.labs.wikimedia.org ?
In the future perhaps it would be better to import simple english
Wikipedia for enwp testing: The lack of templates makes the site look
extensively vandalized already. I'm guessing that an alternative
english language project would be more useful than a subset of enwp.
:)
Where can I see the lucene-search configurations (lsearch.conf,
lsearch-global.conf) of wikimedia?
Could you published them in http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/ ?
