by Zoran Dori 10 Jan '23

10 Jan '23

Hello, can someone to update list https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/P10500 which contains repositories which haven't mediawiki/mediawiki-codesniffer. I found in list that much repositories are empty, and repositories which aren't available on Gerrit. So, can someone please update this list of repositories (in mediawiki/extensions) which haven't mediawiki/mediawiki-codesniffer, but at least, contains one PHP file. or to provide me command with which I can update list when I want, so I don't need to request it every time. Best regards, Zoran. P. S.: Happy weekend! :)

by Ariel Glenn WMF 02 Jan '22

02 Jan '22

I am pleased to announce that Wikimedia Enterprise's HTML dumps [1] for October 17-18th are available for public download; see https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/enterprise_html/ for more information. We expect to make updated versions of these files available around the 1st/2nd of the month and the 20th/21st of the month, following the cadence of the standard SQL/XML dumps. This is still an experimental service, so there may be hiccups from time to time. Please be patient and report issues as you find them. Thanks! Ariel "Dumps Wrangler" Glenn [1] See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Enterprise for much more about Wikimedia Enterprise and its API.

Microsoft Word to Wiki (via LibreOffice)
by Greg Rundlett (freephile) 18 Dec '21

18 Dec '21

Our users have found that using LibreOffice to convert MS Word documents to wikitext is the best approach to getting 'mostly there' when you want to create a wiki page from some MS Word document. In the past, I've created a headless LibreOffice setup to accept file uploads to give editors a conversion service. I don't have that setup available anymore. My question is: "Does anyone know of a service that *is* setup to use LibreOffice to convert MS Word to wikitext?" I searched the ToolHub to no avail. Thanks, Greg

Survey on the improvements in syntax highlighting
by Timur Vorkul 28 Oct '21

28 Oct '21

This year, the Technical Wishes[1] team at Wikimedia Germany has deployed several improvements to syntax highlighting [image: OOjs UI icon highlight.svg] (CodeMirror extension) on a few wikis incl. Mediawiki.org, Testwiki, Wikitech and a handful of Wikipedias. In a small survey[2], the team would like to ask about your experience with the improvements [3] [4] [5]. The survey[2] is now open and will take about three minutes to complete. Thus you can share your feedback with the development team and, last but not least, let us know where some rework needs to be done. The survey is anonymous and runs until November 14th. No personal data will be collected, the survey complies with the EU General Data Protection Regulation. Thank you for your help! The team is looking forward to your participation! P.S.: The deployment of these changes on more wikis will follow in the course of the next months.

MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle 2021.10 release
by Kartik Mistry 28 Oct '21

28 Oct '21

Hello all, I would like to announce the release of MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle 2021.10. This bundle is compatible with '''MediaWiki 1.35.3''' or above and requires '''PHP 7.3.19''' or above. Next MLEB is expected to be released in 3 months. If there are very important bug fixes, we will do an intermediate release. Please give us your feedback at [[Talk:MLEB|https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:MLEB]]. * Download: https://translatewiki.net/mleb/MediaWikiLanguageExtensionBundle-2021.10.tar… * sha256sum: ce923b2a661e3a97ec8f0add9eb9369637e02cbb70a47b80a1e50f3e8c0001d6 * Signature: https://translatewiki.net/mleb/MediaWikiLanguageExtensionBundle-2021.10.tar… Quick links: * Installation instructions are at: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MLEB * Announcements of new releases will be posted to a mailing list: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-i18n * Report bugs to: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/1464/ Release notes for each extension are below. -- Kartik Mistry == Highlights == * MLEB now requires MediaWiki 1.35.3 and PHP 7.3.19 * This release contains security fixes. We recommend updating as soon as possible. * Prevent non-wikitext pages from being marked for translation ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/718014|Gerrit]], [[phab:T163254|Phabricator]]) * Add support for moving talkpages when moving translatable pages ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/709102|Gerrit]], [[phab:T41023|Phabricator]]) * The translation UI (TUX) now uses the user preferred edit fonts when displaying the source message & the editor ([[gerrit:c/719641|Gerrit]], [[phab:T213658|Phabricator]]) == Known Issues == * The new Vector skin has a configuration parameter <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> that moves the language links from the sidebar into a menu beside the page title. With MediaWiki 1.36, New Vector (REL1_36 branch) and <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> set to true, the menu beside the title does not respond to click events and is hence unusable. We recommend setting <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> to false if you are using MediaWiki 1.36. == Babel, cldr, and LocalisationUpdate == * Localisation and maintenance updates. == CleanChanges == * Fix: RecentChanges: When filtering with only a nonexistent user, changes from all users are displayed ([ https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/CleanChanges/+/730538 Gerrit], [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T293257 Phabricator]) * Localisation and maintenance updates. == Translate == * SpecialPageTranslation: Show correct number of units marked for translation ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/705885|Gerrit]]) * Fix translation of pages with custom content models ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/693984|Gerrit]], [[phab:T258756|Phabricator]]) * TranslatablePageMover: Fix incorrect target page validation ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/710285|Gerrit]]) * Extended export.php's capabilities to allow exporting everything with a single invocation ([[phab:T287476|Phabricator]]) * Fix Discouraged translatable page is no longer discouraged after move ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/708493|Gerrit]], [[phab:T287373|Phabricator]]) * Special:PageTranslation: Display consistent success/warning/error messages ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714972|Gerrit]]) * Fix Pages discouraged from translation should warn translators ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714215|Gerrit]], [[phab:T237590|Phabricator]]) * Fix TUX should have try again button upon save failure ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713234|Gerrit]], [[phab:T272791|Phabricator]]) * TUX: Ensure optional message is checked based on URL options ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713219|Gerrit]], [[phab:T264075|Phabricator]]) * SpecialTranslate: Fix proofreading tooltip anchor ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713637|Gerrit]], [[phab:T281466|Phabricator]]) * Fix Page display title no longer translatable by default ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/709502|Gerrit]], [[phab:T287816|Phabricator]]) * Fix TUX should not use a wrong uselang value as fallback ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713601|Gerrit]], [[phab:T279252|Phabricator]]) * Add new validator NotEmptyValidator ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713880|Gerrit]], [[phab:T261305|Phabricator]]) * Add dir/lang attribute for outdated translation header ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714323|Gerrit]], [[phab:T289440|Phabricator]]) * Special:PageTranslation: Require <code><nowiki><translate></nowiki></code> tags on the latest version for marking ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714971|Gerrit]], [[phab:T289697|Phabricator]]) * Special:PageTranslation: <code>tpt-badtitle</code> expects a parameter ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714970|Gerrit]]) * Use user preferred edit font in sourcemessage & editor ([[gerrit:c/719641|Gerrit]], [[phab:T213658|Phabricator]]) * Fix The page translation language list should use HTML list instead of literal bullet points ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/718862|Gerrit]], [[phab:T280742|Phabricator]]) * Remove language URL parameter in "Translate this page" link ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/720664|Gerrit]], [[phab:T286110|Phabricator]]) * Add support for moving talkpages when moving translatable pages ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/709102|Gerrit]], [[phab:T41023|Phabricator]]) * Redirect page should not block translation page ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/710300|Gerrit]], [[phab:T284116|Phabricator]]) * Prevent non-wikitext pages from being marked for translation ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/718014|Gerrit]], [[phab:T163254|Phabricator]]) * Update moveTranslatablePageScript.php to make moving sub pages the default ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/721821|Gerrit]]) * Fix Special:PageMigration -

Fwd: Re: Code coverage for JavaScript testing?
by planetenxin 28 Oct '21

28 Oct '21

Hi Greg, actually I'm more interested in creating the coverage reports on a local dev box in the context of extension development / local CI (checking the coverage of newly created JS tests). I did find info about running JS tests but little to nothing about coverage. Maybe I missed something. /Alexander Am 27.10.2021 um 01:37 schrieb Greg Grossmeier: > On Tue, Oct 26, 2021 at 2:31 AM planetenxin <planetenxin(a)web.de <mailto:planetenxin@web.de>> wrote: > > Is there a generic approach, how to get some coverage reports for the JavaScript parts of MW and MW extensions? > > > Is https://doc.wikimedia.org/cover/ <https://doc.wikimedia.org/cover/> helpful in your case? > > -- > | Greg Grossmeier GPG: B2FA 27B1 F7EB D327 6B8E | > | Dir.
