Lists in wikitext are a pain. Proof: number of duplicates of
<https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/1581>.
Aryeh Gregor proposed in 2007 an amendment that would IMHO solve many
problems and find no opposers in principle, "Have multiline tags not
terminate the list item until the tag is terminated":
<https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9996#c5>
Does someone disagree? How hard is it to implement? (Probably rather or
very hard, but who knows.)
For more general context of how I was brought to this problem, and to
discuss alternative solutions for my specific issue, please refer to

instead.

Hi
I maintain the server running the wiki at
https://wiki.transitionnetwork.org/ and 3 month ago it was upgraded to
MediaWiki 1.22.x and the VisualEditor was installed from source and that
was quite straight forward, details here:
- https://trac.transitionnetwork.org/trac/ticket/706
Yesterday I upgraded to MediaWiki 1.23.0 and switched to using the
Debian repo for parsoid as per:
- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsoid/Setup#Ubuntu_.2F_Debian
And since then I have been unable to get the VisualEditor working, when
you click on 'Edit' nothing happens, looking at the HTTP requests there
is a GET to load.php and a 304 in response but nothing actually happens
in the web browser, I have tried with Firefox 30 and the Debian Wheezy
Chromium.
There is nothing of note in the webserver logs or the parsoid.log.
It appears to be working correctly on the command line:
curl http://localhost:8142/localhost/Sandbox -d wt="Hello ''world''" -d body=1
<body data-parsoid='{"dsr":[0,15,0,0]}'><p data-parsoid='{"dsr":[0,15,0,0]}'>Hello <i data-parsoid='{"dsr":[6,15,2,2]}'>world</i></p></body>
I'm not sure what to try next.
More details including the Nginx config can be found on the comments I
have posted to this ticket:
- https://trac.transitionnetwork.org/trac/ticket/736
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated, I fear I have made a simple
mistake somewhere...
All the best
Chris

Hi,
I am working on the mass migration tools project
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Translate/Mass_migration_tools>
as a part of Google Summer of Code. One of the parts of project is to
import old translations into the Translate Extension.
We are done with a basic import by splitting the old pages on double
newlines (\n\n) and some more alignment based on h2 headers. We are now
thinking of improving the alignment.
Is there some work done on the subject mentioned? For each of the unit,
what I would like to do is clear all the linguistic elements and have the
bare markup left. Then, I could compare the markup of the source and target
units and align accordingly.
Are there any API's available which already do this? Please guide me to
accomplish this task.
