− | + | == Version namespace links == | |
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | + | It appears that the recent update has caused version pages to link back to mainspace, instead of linking within their own version namespace automatically. For example, [[40d:Potash_maker]] links to [[Potash]], while [[40d:Potash]] is the expected link. --[[User:Loci|Loci]] ([[User talk:Loci|talk]]) 15:04, 12 April 2013 (UTC) | |
+ | : Looks like you're correct. I'll have to investigate and see what the fix is. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 20:17, 12 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | :: This has been fixed. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 03:16, 14 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
− | + | ==Double redirects to sections== | |
− | : | + | Though the wiki software is supposed to handle double redirects, it appears to fail when the redirect is to a subsection of a page -- see [[calm]], for instance. --[[User:Zzedar|Zzedar]] ([[User talk:Zzedar|talk]]) 03:40, 13 April 2013 (UTC) |
+ | : Interesting. I will investigate, thanks for the report. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 03:41, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | :: Looking into it a bit more, it seems there are a lot of double redirects that don't work properly, even when they're not to subsections; [[fishing]], for instance.--[[User:Zzedar|Zzedar]] ([[User talk:Zzedar|talk]]) 17:17, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::: If I remember correctly, Loci pointed that out, but the original discussion was archived. It's probably a problem with the cv: alias (as [http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php?title=Fishing&oldid=183520 this revision] on Fishing redirects correctly). --{{User:Lethosor/sig}} 17:25, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | :::: That's been my hunch so far, but I haven't had enough time to fully flesh out the problem just yet. Please keep me posted if y'all find any other edge cases. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 17:27, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::::: [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgNamespaceAliases This manual page] seems to be relevant. I just tested this scenario on another wiki (1.20.2) and ran into the exact same situation (with a double redirect from page -> foo:page -> foo:page2 failing). This may be a problem with MediaWiki as opposed to this specific namespace scheme (although MediaWiki seems to discourage double redirects, according to [[Special:DoubleRedirects]]). I'll try testing on 1.20.3 next, but it probably produces the same result. --{{User:Lethosor/sig}} 17:41, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::::: Actually, '''no''' double redirects seem to resolve, according to my tests, even in the same namespace. --{{User:Lethosor/sig}} 17:43, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::::: [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Double_redirects]] seems to state this clearly. I'm not sure if there is a workaround, or what it would be. --{{User:Lethosor/sig}} 17:46, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | :::::: https://gist.github.com/locriani/e43abff805d5cdd6c4ac is the current settings we use (as well as the hack to allow in-namespace redirect) --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 17:49, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::::::: There are a few that work; [[milking]] does, for instance. Actually, I did some testing: making a dummy edit to the first redirect seems to fix the problem -- I deleted a space from [[wrestler]], and now it works where it didn't before. However, null edits do ''not'' work. '''Update''': [http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php?title=Trigger&diff=183538&oldid=76624 this change] fixed the trigger redirect.--[[User:Zzedar|Zzedar]] ([[User talk:Zzedar|talk]]) 17:54, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::::::: Dang it, I bet I know what's causing it then. There are probably bad entries in the links table,and I may have to forcibly refresh the entire table. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 18:25, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::::: Completely late here, but I was wrong about the redirect limit, which you probably figured out ([http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgMaxRedirects]). --{{User:Lethosor/sig}} 01:43, 14 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
− | + | Ok, I've completely rebuilt the links and redirect tables, and thing should be working as expected now, although I still need to figure out the issue causing links to not stay within the namespace. If not, let me know! --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 19:17, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | |
+ | : Nope, still not working -- see [[marksman]], for instance. --[[User:Zzedar|Zzedar]] ([[User talk:Zzedar|talk]]) 19:44, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | :: Well, dang it. Going to keep digging. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 19:46, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::: Ok, looks like it's a bug in MediaWiki that broke max redirects behavior sometime in version 1.20.x and there is not yet a fix. I will continue to look for a way to resolve it on our end --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 19:55, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
− | + | == Rating script == | |
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | + | A few problems with the rating script seem to have popped up with the new software (these are probably more related to [[User:Emi]], but you seem to be more active at the moment): | |
+ | * <code>jsMsg()</code> now fades out after a few seconds, preventing the automatic tests from completing in a few cases | ||
+ | * Clicking a checkbox propagates up to the message box, causing it to fade out and preventing any further action (and showing it again with <code>$("#mw-notification-area").show()</code> doesn't work, because the text is cleared when it disappears). | ||
+ | The easiest solution here is probably to display the interface somewhere else, instead of using the notification system. | ||
− | + | For the time being, I can rate articles manually, but it would be nice if someone could look into this. --{{User:Lethosor/sig}} 14:51, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | |
+ | :I'll poke Emily when she gets back from vacation this weekend and we'll figure out a better way to do it. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 18:37, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
− | + | == Parser Functions == | |
− | + | A recent change seems to have caused them to stop working (but they're still listed at [[Special:Version]]). See [[DF2012:Giant lion]] --{{User:Lethosor/sig}} 19:24, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | |
+ | : Oops, I forgot to clone the repo into one of the servers. Doing that now. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 19:27, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | :: Fixed. Good catch! --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 19:29, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
− | + | == Categorization by template == | |
− | + | The recent changes briefly made categorization by template work correctly. Then, another change broke it again. [[:Category:DF2012:Flying]] now includes every creature page, instead of properly determining flying status from the raws. This new breakage seemed to happen about the time you resolved the parser function bug (above). --[[User:Loci|Loci]] ([[User talk:Loci|talk]]) 20:48, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | |
+ | : :psyduck: --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 20:49, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | : I'm going to try rebuilding ALL THE THINGS again, momentarily. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 20:50, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::ALL THE THINGS rebuilt. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 21:06, 13 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
− | + | == Random pages == | |
− | = | + | It looks like $wgExtraRandompageSQL was removed in 1.19 ([http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/$wgExtraRandompageSQL]). The suggested option seems to be adding a hook, as shown [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Hooks/SpecialRandomGetRandomTitle here], but it's not clear if it can be defined outside of an extension (which might be easier). --{{User:Lethosor/sig}} 01:37, 14 April 2013 (UTC) |
+ | : Yep, another thing on my list. Are you any good at php >.> I'm trying to figure out another issue and I usually avoid PHP at all costs --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 01:38, 14 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | ::This looks like it works (at least for me in LocalSettings.php): | ||
+ | <pre> | ||
+ | function randtitle(&$randstr, &$isRedir, &$namespaces, &$extra, &$title){ | ||
+ | $extra[]='page_title NOT LIKE \'%/raw\''; | ||
+ | return true; | ||
+ | } | ||
− | + | $wgHooks['SpecialRandomGetRandomTitle'][] = 'randtitle'; | |
+ | </pre>--{{User:Lethosor/sig}} 01:51, 14 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | Perfect, I'll steal that. Right now I'm trying to figure out what hack we used to keep links within namespaces. :/ --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 01:52, 14 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | :: Implemented. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 03:16, 14 April 2013 (UTC) | ||

− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | + | This happens:<br /> | |
+ | [[File:Upload bug.png]]<br /> | ||
+ | I'm unsure of the cause; it sometimes happens when I load a page and sometimes doesn't, and it even changes between loads of the same page. Something similar happens with tables of contents: where it should say "contents", it instead says "<toc>" (the table of contents for your talk page looks that way to me right now, though I suspect it'll fix itself after I submit this comment, since null edits to pages with this problem seem to fix it for that page).--[[User:Zzedar|Zzedar]] ([[User talk:Zzedar|talk]]) 18:07, 15 April 2013 (UTC) | ||
+ | :Hrm, I'll investigate. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 18:11, 15 April 2013 (UTC) | ||

− | + | == Anonymous editing == | |

− | + | You must confirm your e-mail address before editing pages. Please set and validate your e-mail address through your user preferences. | |
− | + | [[Special:ListGroupRights]] claims (all) users have the edit permission. Was this change intentional? --[[User:Loci|Loci]] ([[User talk:Loci|talk]]) 19:22, 16 April 2013 (UTC) | |

− | + | == Script reloading error == | |
− | + | Was there a change made to the cloudflare settings recently? Because the cloudflare script is suddenly slowing things down a lot and tries to frequently reload the page or something.--[[User:Zzedar|Zzedar]] ([[User talk:Zzedar|talk]]) 02:11, 17 April 2013 (UTC) | |
