Logging indefinite blocks
by Bináris 28 Jun '24

28 Jun '24

Hi folks, I can choose either infinite or indefinite block, it is being logged publicly as infinite. Once we have two different types, they should be logged separately. Indefinite blocks are ususally connected to some condition, such as changing an unacceptable name, and the public infinite appearance sometimes causes misunterstandings among users. Is it a bug or a feature? -- Bináris

MediaWiki 1.40 is End of Life
by Sam Reed 28 Jun '24

28 Jun '24

As per the MediaWiki version lifecycle[1], I would like to announce the formal end of life (EOL) of MediaWiki 1.38 as of today, Friday June 28, 2024. 1.40.4 is expected to be the last release for this branch. This means that MediaWiki 1.40 will no longer receive maintenance or security backports. It is therefore strongly discouraged that you continue to use it. It is recommended to upgrade either to MediaWiki 1.41, which will be supported until December 2024, or 1.42, which will be supported until June 2025. Thanks!

How to make commits from mirrored Wikimedia repos show up on your GitHub profile
by Bartosz Dziewoński 27 Jun '24

27 Jun '24

I know it has been annoying a couple of people other than me, so now that I've learned how to make it work I'll share the knowledge here. tl;dr: Star the repositories. No, seriously. (And yes, you need to star each extension repo separately.) (Is there a place on mw.org to put this tidbit on?) ------- Forwarded message ------- From: "Brian Levine" <support(a)github.com> (GitHub Staff) To: matma.rex(a)gmail.com Cc: Subject: Re: Commits in mirrored repositories not showing up on my profile Date: Tue, 09 Jul 2013 06:47:19 +0200 Hi Bartosz In order to link your commits to your GitHub account, you need to have some association with the repository other than authoring the commit. Usually, having push access gives you that connection. In this case, you don't have push permission, so we don't link you to the commit. The easy solution here is for you to star the repository. If you star it - along with the other repositories that are giving you this problem - we'll see that you're connected to the repository and you'll get contribution credit for those commits. Cheers Brian -- Matma Rex

Article source code style guide
by Bináris 27 Jun '24

27 Jun '24

Hi, is there anywhere a $subject? My first question is: is it better to leave an empty line under section titles or not? I would like to see pros and cons. Is there a consensus for preferred way? (I think source code style guides are primarily within the scope of programmers and not in that of users without programming experience, that's why I ask here.) -- Bináris
