[10:13:21] Hi, How do I know if the israeli wikibooks supports the new lua interface? [10:22:26] nakee: Lua is activated on all projects afaik [10:23:27] p858snake|l: I want to make a script that when you press a button in changes the text in some way (remove some hebrew marks) is the lua interface the right thing to use? [10:25:26] Making a JS gadget would probably be better [10:45:20] p858snake|l: I thought lua was supposed to replace them? [10:47:09] no, lua is mostly for templates [10:59:50] p858snake|l: I'm new to wikipedia programing, is there a page you can recommend me to read? what I find it google is very abstract and I can't figure it out [13:46:53] * Nemo_bis clap-claps at andre__ [13:47:07] Nemo_bis, cheers :) [15:04:37] * apergos eyes andre__ [15:05:47] and guesses that last bug merge was dne by script and not manually [15:11:08] apergos, hmm? context? [15:11:27] merging App products in BZ? via web interface, but with mass-changing [15:11:35] yeah, I figured [15:11:40] no script - bad experience [15:11:41] I got mail on one of the bugs, [15:11:45] ah [15:11:54] added a comment so people can filter bugmail on that. [15:11:56] which was spam from a while back [15:12:10] I think we'd invalided all those so I was amused to get the mail [15:12:17] ah, that one. yeah [15:12:19] heh [15:12:33] I think there once was even a "spam" product. instead of just closing as invalid and banning the reporter [15:13:54] hmm well it's been a while now since we had the spammer [15:14:13] but if it were a regular occurrance it would be nice to have something n place [15:14:33] forutunately we have a bugmeister to handle that sort of thing :-) [15:14:36] there's not too much that you can do [15:14:47] it's too easy to get new email addresses :P [15:15:00] IP blocking, server config. but apart from that... [15:18:02] I think a photo of an angry domas might have some result [15:18:46] on the frontpage? I'll provide a patch. [15:19:08] yeah, all that unused space [17:31:35] any idea of what is wikipedia-live-monitor? seems to be beeng kiked from pt.wikipedia.org, on irc.wikimedia [17:32:01] wikipedia-live-monitor has left this server (Excess Flood). [17:35:53] seems to be this -> http://wikipedia-irc.herokuapp.com/ [17:48:17] oo using heroku :) [17:48:21] i have a friend who works there [17:48:24] it's pretty cool [18:03:21] **** Announcement **** Lua/Scribunto office hours are happening now in #wikimedia-office . Join us if you have questions about how to use Lua to make templates faster and more powerful.

[19:17:12] meta cannot save their page [19:17:13] s [19:17:47] well, I am working on meta, I haven't tested othr wikis [19:21:00] working [19:50:12] is there any other developer but Reedy whom can help launch the Hebrew Wikivoyage? (https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46416) [19:51:02] It seems that Reedy is not around and therefore I was wondering if anyone else is capable of doing that as well ? [19:57:29] anyone around ? [20:08:40] WikiJunkie: Reedy is probably still the best person to help. Considering that it's Friday it's unlikely that it's going to get launched today. [20:11:34] oh ... he only does that during weekdays in the work hours ? [20:12:16] We generally try not to deploy new things on Fridays [20:12:28] Because if they break, you've just ruined everyone's weekend [20:13:41] I see [20:14:40] but I just wanted to know... would the best time to get a hold of Reedy or expect any involvment from his part be in the weekdays during the work hours ? [20:15:18] he would get back here on Monday, right ? [20:15:18] Yes [20:15:22] But note that "work hours" depends on time zone as well :) [20:15:51] He's in the UK, but his hours are probably a bit later than 9-5 because many of us are in the US [20:16:28] ok [20:16:33] thanks for the help [20:16:46] Will be back in Monday then [20:29:19] "Is there any way to contact the operations folks at WMF?" [20:29:57] seems like people on VP/T don't feel heard.... [20:33:00] thedj: I'm gonna post a link there to https://blog.wikimedia.org/2013/03/18/how-to-create-a-good-first-bug-report/ [20:43:40] sumanah: btw, there is a large group of people for who that is useless info btw. bugzilla is not anonymous. [20:44:16] although most just don't want to get into learning how to use another system. [20:45:29] thedj: I understand. However, for those people who are willing to, it's going to make them a lot more effective as self-advocates, so I figure I should still remind them of that [20:46:27] thedj: people can use temporary addresses, that's not really a good excuse [20:46:56] temporary as in spammotel (which now closed) or whatever [20:47:01] So, I've updated https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Searching#Delay_in_updating_the_search_index to say that people should report bugs by filing BZ bugs; it used to suggest VP:T [20:47:21] i'm not saying they are not lazy [20:47:36] I respect that people have limited time and brainwidth [20:47:42] (like bandwidth but for your mind) [20:47:58] I understand their reasons [20:48:17] VP/T used to work just fine, but it seems it's a bit quieter these days. [20:48:31] in the long run we're trying to address 'em. In the short run: they should at least be aware of BZ as an option, and Andre & others will look at VP:T every so often. [20:49:17] so, what is the situation right now with the search index? are we still working through the backlog from when Tim fixed it on the 19th? [20:49:36] xyzram: ^ A question from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29#Search_index_not_updating . [20:50:17] the admin log says that max started rebuilding solr index some 18hours ago. [20:51:00] 12 hours ago [20:59:13] sumanah: Looks like the automated snapshots are not happening for some reason, looking ... [21:00:08] Thank you [21:09:49] thedj: I've been pointing people toward [[m:Tech]]. [21:10:47] sumanah: Looks like the snapshot happened ok on the index box but the IncrementalUpdater is not running [21:10:58] Somebody in ops needs to restart it. [21:11:13] Is notpeter around ? [21:11:16] xyzram: Can I ask you to poke in #wikimedia-operations for that to happen [21:11:16] ? [21:12:57] Just did, waiting for a response. [21:14:33] Thank you xyzram [21:18:27] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:District_Line_RDT [21:18:29] :-) [21:18:40] [21:33:35] hello all [23:34:09] hmm, is there a separate irc channel for lua implementation?
