[00:36:19] * Jasper_Deng would like it if Elsie could mark http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Request_for_an_account_on_the_Foundation_wiki#Gabrielchihonglee as not done [03:57:26] * Jasper_Deng wonders if Elsie got his ping [03:57:48] I don't really "do" that page any longer. [03:57:49] !ping | Elsie [03:57:49] Elsie: Pong. [03:57:53] Because I can't accept requests. [03:57:58] you can't? [03:57:58] Because, y'know, [03:58:01] didn't you make mine? [03:58:09] All volunteers were stripped of adminship on that wiki. [03:58:15] By Gayle Karen Young and Philippe Beaudette. [03:58:16] uhhh, the great desysopping of 2013? [03:58:16] oh... [03:58:21] Without notification or justification. [03:58:49] that doesn't make sense esp. given that page protection is so rarely used there [03:59:02] There was a pretty large wikimedia-l thread about it. [03:59:05] without n10n or j11n. [03:59:27] ori the neologiser [03:59:38] that's what they call me [04:58:27] Requests sitting since May, oh so unexpected. [05:00:15] notification or justification? [05:51:30] ori-l: would you test a maintenance script on my account? [05:52:50] i.e. CentralAuth's sendConfirmAndMigrateEmail.php --username=Nemo_bis on it.quote, it just sends an email confirmation [05:53:28] let me read it first, sec. [05:54:39] thanks [05:59:04] what are you looking to test? [06:00:28] ori-l: for instance, if I have to login first and if the token is set correctly [06:01:20] we're "hacking" a core function by replacing the token expiry and the special page where we send the user, would be nice to check that it works in "real life" [06:03:56] well, all right. can you confirm you're you and own your account by repeating the request in a note on https://it.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?title=Discussioni_utente:Ori.livneh&action=edit&redlink=1 ? [06:05:43] done [06:11:21] OK, doing it, but it's a slightly strange request [06:11:58] got it [06:12:29] nope [06:12:34] that's the old one [06:20:45] I don't think it's going to work. [06:21:18] https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-CentralAuth/blob/dc06b430bf68c6e900eb8724316608abd7c31775/EmailableUser.php#L34 [06:21:23] $u = new ConfirmAndMigrateUser; [06:21:29] I can't find where that class is defined. [06:25:19] Nemo_bis: did you know this all along? I'm confused. [06:25:37] I'm looking [06:26:10] it's not in core and it's not in CentralAuth (past or present) [06:26:26] and the maintenance script is the only result on google and github code search [06:27:04] if you search for "ConfirmAndMigrateUser", I mean. [06:27:19] yeah [06:27:41] well, I didn't check that one but it did seem to me that the code could be half-finished [06:28:02] Half-baked. [06:28:20] some pieces don't seem to fit very well [06:28:37] Elsie: I like to vary vocabulary a bit. I've already used that word recently. [06:29:41] Somehow I have no difficulty imagining you maintaining a spreadsheet of such usage statistics. [06:30:20] ori-l: would you test a maintenance script on my account? [06:30:20] i.e. CentralAuth's sendConfirmAndMigrateEmail.php --username=Nemo_bis on it.quote, it just sends an email confirmation [06:30:26] It would have been slight more honest to say: [06:30:40] would you test a maintenance script on my account _that I deeply suspect is totally broken_? [06:30:54] slightly [06:31:39] yes, slightly. [06:31:40] ori-l: sorry... I didn't see that one [06:32:04] I only suspected the token wasn't going to work well [06:32:08] not that one, perhaps, but it seemed 'half-finished' [06:32:57] it's not the same as "totally broken", especially as I wouldn't judge that way merged code in CentralAuth :) [06:33:10] (being waaaaaay to incompetent to do so) [06:34:06] But again, I'm sorry for being involuntarily not so honest. :[ [06:34:16] I think you could have been more upfront. You were not looking to confirm that it works; you were looking to confirm that it doesn't work. That's fine, but you could have been more forthcoming. [06:34:44] You also happen to be right, but that's besides the point. [06:35:03] Not really... wishful thinking, but I was hoping it would work. [06:35:39] Because if there is code to fix things get harder, while if there's a working tool we could see some progress. [06:37:39] I feel a bit manipulated, but w/e. Can you repay the favor by filing a Bugzilla bug about it? [06:39:09] Ok. [06:39:41] thanks. [06:39:46] Should I mention you in it or would that be furthering the alleged manipulation? [06:40:04] heh [06:40:08] up to you :P [06:41:18] anyways, why wouldn't the token work well? [06:42:49] and if you truly were being honest, I'm sorry for being suspicious. It was a bit uncanny. [06:49:55] ^ Nemo_bis [06:55:19] ori-l: I don't understand the interaction between core and this modification of it [06:55:37] AFAIK the token doesn't log you in, to the point you can confirm an email for an account while being logged in into another [07:16:38] "Please don't waste my time again like this" [07:16:47] really, Elsie? [07:17:19] I was a bit annoyed. [07:18:25] Where? [07:19:05] on gerrit, to adamw [07:19:44] (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/86394/) [07:20:58] See it now [07:22:11] Elsie: Yeah, I don't understand what your problem is with the one-line patch. Actually I'm not sure I understand why you submitted PS2. [07:22:40] Oh, I see [07:22:44] Because it's...yeah [07:23:00] * marktraceur retracts confusion [07:23:20] The original merge was annoying. Having to deal with Gerrit made everything worse. [07:23:26] Aw. [07:24:34] http://p.defau.lt/?HR4qLWsy2sQ0Ix2IQJ15Cw is pretty wonderful to hit. [07:24:48] Hah [07:24:53] Elsie: git fetch gerrit [07:25:18] Elsie: Could probably do that with a cron job so you avoid the freaky message [07:25:32] Or Adam could just fucking behave himself. :-) [07:26:02] I followed Ori's directions from wikitech-l. [07:26:05] I think the issue is resolved now. [07:28:10] http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2013-May/069672.html [07:31:48] Ohhh. [07:33:19] It's like an onion of what the fuck [09:53:11] Hmm https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MergeAccount/00000000000000000000000000000000 [14:13:27] Hello, I think I have found a bug in mw.lua : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Module:Wrapper . I don't understand what's appening: maybe a nicer error message would be usefull [14:37:10] anyone? [14:47:47] ""maybe a nicer error message would be usefull"" [14:47:47] Erreur Lua dans mw.lua à la ligne 553: bad argument #1 to 'chunk' (string expected, got table). [14:47:47] Trace arrière: [14:47:47] [C] : dans la fonction « chunk » [14:47:47] mw.lua:553 : ? [15:17:33] Sure I don't understand what is wrong in my code with this. :)
