[07:55:21] <ori-l>	 Susan: do you know if this can be reset on-wiki?
[07:56:04] <Susan>	 Admins can bypass it.
[07:56:08] <Susan>	 By creating the accounts for the users.
[07:56:17] <Susan>	 Otherwise, it requires editing configuration files.
[07:56:26] <subha>	 right, is there anyone who can help at this moment
[07:56:26] <subha>	 ?
[07:56:29] <Susan>	 I think the goal was to put it an extension one day.
[07:56:42] <Susan>	 in an *
[07:57:04] <ori-l>	 Susan: ^ is there anyone who can help w/o requiring database or file modification?
[07:57:20] <Susan>	 Any admin, as I said.
[07:57:53] <subha>	 anyone online?
[07:58:01] <Susan>	 Any admins?

[08:09:19] <ori-l>	 I'm looking to see how I might help. Have you posted here? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Administrators'_noticeboard
[08:10:14] <subha>	 thanks ori-1 let me post it there
[08:10:29] <ori-l>	 hi matanya
[08:10:32] <Susan>	 > This is not the page to report problems to administrators, or discuss administrative issues.
[08:10:38] <Susan>	 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard
[08:10:49] <ori-l>	 sorry -- what's the right place?
[08:10:56] <matanya>	 hi ori-l 
[08:12:01] <Susan>	 https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=throttle.php
[08:12:03] <ori-l>	 matanya: subha (ip: 14.140.227.67) claims to be part of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Summit_Pune and is unable to create accounts
[08:12:18] <ori-l>	 <subha> we got the ipblock excempt, but for some reason the institute ip got changed
[08:12:32] <ori-l>	 matanya: is this something you could help with? Or direct to someone who could?
[08:12:46] <matanya>	 is the ip blocked?
[08:13:16] <subha>	 yes
[08:14:31] <matanya>	 subha: can you please PM me the block message?
[08:19:35] <subha>	 matanya sent you the error message
[08:19:53] <matanya>	 saw, thanks
[08:20:09] <matanya>	 it is not the ip, it is the user name you chose
[08:20:20] <matanya>	 pick other name
[08:25:47] <subha>	 yes, but the error is same for all the computers in the network, it says you have already created 6 user accounts
[08:26:47] <ori-l>	 subha: I'm fixing it, I think.
[08:27:00] <subha>	 wow, thanks a lot :)
[08:29:09] <ori-l>	 subha: could you try now?
[08:32:25] <subha>	 thanks a lot ori-1, it is working :)
[08:34:21] <ori-l>	 np.
[08:48:30] <ori-l>	 matanya: thanks for looking into it.
[08:48:59] <matanya>	 no problem
[13:56:47] <Nemo_bis>	 hmm, looks like the only bug ever reported by Aaron Swartz was WONTFIX'ed :) https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16007
[17:17:00] <multichill>	 upload.wikimedia.org appears to have become very slow. Any thoughts? 
[17:26:04] <Reedy>	 multichill: paravoid has been looking at it
[17:26:15] <Reedy>	 Should be better again now..
[20:02:50] <Nemo_bis>	 Krinkle|detached: what I asked are links to previous discussions on whether to run the old script or not, controversies or whatever
[20:03:33] <Nemo_bis>	 as you say that it was totally uncontroversial, which I don't have proof of and I couldn't e.g. write on [[mw:Localisation]] without worries
[20:04:18] <Nemo_bis>	 that said, I agree with you so I'll stop playing the devil's advocate (lawyer?)
[23:19:17] <DaBPunkt>	 gn8 folks
[23:43:51] <Raylton>	 search in pt.wikivoyage don't work
[23:44:00] <Raylton>	 how can I solve this?
[23:50:35] <hoo>	 Raylton: AFAIK the lucene search index for new wikis has to be created per hand, someone will probably do this in the next days
[23:51:04] <hoo>	 I can't look anything up right now, as I only have very limited mobile broadband (they throttle me after I've used 200MiB)
[23:56:47] <Susan>	 Raylton: How new is pt.wikivoyage?
[23:56:59] <Raylton>	 hoo, I need to open a bug?
[23:57:58] <hoo>	 Raylton: I don't think that's needed, but I don't want to open a browser now to look it up :P
