| − | == MediaWiki Upgrade 1.15.0 -> 1.18.0 (December 16, 2011) == | + | ==Rebecca "Spreadsheet" Taylor== |
| − | '''2011-12-15''': Friday December 16, 2011 at approx 12pm PDT, I will be upgrading MediaWiki from version 1.15.0 to 1.18.0. The update will bring two years worth of better security, performance and features. I have tested the update (which required a few fixes to our extensions and skins), but you never know what will go wrong. Additionally, after the upgrade, I will be looking into better SPAM protection for the wiki. If you see anything out of place, please let me know.

| − | '''2011-12-16''': As of noon today, we are running MediaWiki 1.18.0. I've noticed a couple things off, here's what I'm working on fixing:
| + | : Hello, Livewire. I am reasonably sure that if the character is canon (I don't have #12 yet), they will be added in some fashion. However, if you want to prime the pump a bit, and are not familiar with wikis, I'd recommend opening a similar character (maybe from an earlier ''Guide'') and starting an article named [[Rebecca Taylor]], copying all the stuff (text & code) over into the new article, changing everything that doesn't pertain and adding what is needed. Some other Editor will be sure to follow behind and correct any mistakes or add needed info. Good luck, and I'll be looking for the article (and the ''Guide'').--[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 21:21, 12 May 2021 (EDT) |

No idea why this one got nuts. I added the information. Maybe it is because of the nice german spelling, but it is not the only planet like this.

| | + | ::Yes Nick, that it is. I want to see which images are missing a real category as missing copyright is a "commonplace" not a category for me.

| | + | Hi Nic,<br> |
| | + | [[Module:LuaTest]] shows up as a blue link in [[Special:LonelyPages]], but the page appears to be deleted. Adding it to [[User:Talvin/Project_Orphanage#Technical_Pages]] shows it as a red link, and it does not disappear from the Orphans when that cache refreshes overnight. This is hardly a showstopper bug or even close, but it's odd. [[User:Talvin|Talvin]] ([[User talk:Talvin|talk]]) 10:57, 27 February 2022 (EST) |
| | + | : Strange, I couldn't find any way to make it disappear either. Must be a side-effect of it being a LUA module. Since it's not affecting anything else (that I can tell) I'll leave it for now, but if there's a pattern of this happening I can dig into it more. Thanks for bringing to my attention! [[User:Nicjansma|Nicjansma]] ([[User talk:Nicjansma|talk]]) 22:26, 22 June 2022 (EDT) |
| | | | |
| − | Thanks for the suggestion and details Seth, but that requires a major change to our settings: not allowing any anonymous edits. We've specifically chosen to allow anonymous edits (so far, though we could revisit this decision if we wanted).
| + | == Looks like a Bug. == |
| | | | |
| − | Ideally, we would keep all of our existing settings:
| + | [[:Category:Spanish language products]] is a double redirect, and it looks like it is locked up in the change propagation process since 26 March 2022. It appears to need deletion.--[[User:Talvin|Talvin]] ([[User talk:Talvin|talk]]) 10:15, 14 June 2022 (EDT) |
| − | * Anonymous users have a Captcha for: creating an account, editing pages, creating pages, and adding urls (which is redundant since it's covered by editing pages)
| + | : Thanks. I had to set <code>$smwgChangePropagationProtection = false;</code> first, then remove the page. <code>$smwgChangePropagationProtection</code> is now back to <code>true</code>. [[User:Nicjansma|Nicjansma]] ([[User talk:Nicjansma|talk]]) 22:32, 22 June 2022 (EDT) |
| − | * Regular users never see Captchas
| |
| − | | |
| − | We would ideally only want a single change to this configuration:
| |
| − | * Regular Users would only see a Captcha when adding a URL
| |
| − | | |
| − | Without your suggested major change (disallowing all anonymous edits), the configuration of ConfirmEdit doesn't allow this.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Unless we want to revisit allowing anonymous editing, I will start by looking into your suggested Anti-SPAM plugins. Many thanks for the suggestions! [[User:Nicjansma|Nicjansma]] 10:50, 19 December 2011 (PST)
| |
| − | | |
| − | ====ReCaptcha Alternatives====
| |
| − | It looks like ReCaptcha isn't catching all the spam bots registering with the wiki and spamming their own talk pages with junk. The confirmedit extension page states that some spam bots have found a way around ReCaptcha and that it might be worth trying one of the other captcha types. There are several alternative on this [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit Confirm Edit Extension page].--[[User:Seth|Seth]] 23:11, 23 December 2011 (PST)

| |
| − | :I suggest looking into ways to fight bots besides captchas. I've been running a MWO wiki since the beginning of November, and I haven't dealt with a spam bot yet. And my MW4 wiki was dealing with new bot accounts everyday, but since adding the following extensions, I haven't had one new bot account.

| |
| − | Hi Nic, first off, thanks for the upgrade. I'm not entirely sure if this belongs here, but since the upgrade took place this site appears to be much slower for me. It's not an issue on regular article pages, but special pages (which I use often) have become painstakingly slow. It was normal for the Recent Changes page to take some 4 seconds to load, for example; now it takes 19 seconds. Mind you, this isn't really a problem. But if anything can be done, it would be nice. [[User:Frabby|Frabby]] 06:22, 19 December 2011 (PST)

| − | :::It seems the button is only available when your using the Liao skin and then only when I edit the whole page. I don't see it when I edit a sectoon. I suggest Nic takes a look at the .php files for the skins and see what's missing from the other skins.--[[User:Seth|Seth]] 21:40, 25 December 2011 (PST)

| − | :::::: I was curious about this as well, because I was missing the ref, redirect, sub- and superscript keys, etc. I was using Safari as my browser, and decided to look at the others I had not been using but I had already downloaded, Fire Fox and Opera. Turns out, only Opera of the three has the keys, and they are all present. As an added benefit, the article does not wobble when I scroll from the top to the bottom of the page. If you are using a Mac, switch the the most recent version of Opera and your problem should be fixed. If you are using Linux or Windows, you could test other browsers compatible with your OS and see which one fixes the problem for you. The other option is fixing the editor interface. Best of luck!--[[User:S.gage|S.gage]] 21:27, 6 January 2012 (PST)

| − | === Semantic Wiki ===
| |
| − | There is a project for this BattlTech Wiki that I would like to work on now that you're running a current version of Mediawiki, but requires the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Semantic_Bundle Semantic Bundle] extension. The [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/NoCache No Cache] extension would go great with this too since some pages take a while to update from the database. The [[Sandbox]] page describes one of the things I would like to work on.--[[User:Seth|Seth]] 23:21, 23 December 2011 (PST)

| − | :Can you exlain what it ''does.'' I see simple code (the timetable template) that ''appears'' to result in three-row, four-column table. Does this mean its pulling data from other pages to create this table?--[[User:Revanche|Revanche]] <sup>([[User_talk:Revanche|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Revanche|contribs]])</sup> 07:56, 24 December 2011 (PST)

| − | ::I can do one better than that, I can show you what it does. Using the same code with this extension installed, I made a sample page [ http://mwowiki.org/index.php?title=Timetable_Sample here]. It pulls data from other pages and displays it on its own page. The real benefit of this is that you can update multiple tables from the one subject page. On the [[:Category:BattleMechs]], you might just want a list of all mechs and fast way to sort them by tonnage or to know which ones are clan or Inner Sphere, but on the timetable page you're just interested in knowing when all the mechs were frst made. It's basically a useful tool for displaying data in an organized way.--[[User:Seth|Seth]] 10:40, 24 December 2011 (PST)

| − | I lost several times ago the left naviagion bar, it's periodicaly, but the problem occur sometimes.--[[User:Doneve|Doneve]] 11:44, 2 January 2012 (PST)

| − | :I can't say it's periodical, but every now and then, the left-side navigation bar is limited to a "Navigation" section containing Main page, Community portal, Current events, Recent changes, Random page & Help; then the "Search" field; then the "Toolbox" section. The oter sections are missing. There is no apparent pattern to when/if the left navbar shows completely or in this truncated form. [[User:Frabby|Frabby]] 11:59, 2 January 2012 (PST) | |
