[03:12:32] https://ar.wikipedia.org/ homepage disappeared [03:15:05] wfm [03:17:59] found it http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=MediaWiki:Mainpage/ar&action=history [03:18:03] :) [03:18:48] oh :) [03:49:57] that's...pretty bad >.> [14:04:59] lol, when quick purging really matters http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2013/12/no-wikipedia-is-not-experimenting-with-ads/282682/ [14:08:20] Stupid shit. [14:08:29] Who writes articles about a 5-minute vandalism. [14:08:55] * twkozlowski takes credit for deleting this file from Commons :-P [14:09:37] I caught one just by browsing the latest uploads on Commons at the right minute. [14:15:09] did anybody actually request the addition a feature that enables a user or administrator to purge all pages that contain a specific transcluded template, so this sort of vandalism is less of a problem [15:38:09] NotASpy: see P< [15:38:12] *PM [15:44:27] twkozlowski: well, in theory the cached vandalim can last up to 30 days [16:06:22] NotASpy, imagine a template with a million transclusions [16:06:25] ... [16:06:31] meltdown [16:06:32] ;) [16:08:17] NotASpy: null editing does that, as does ?action=purge&forcelinkupdate=1, but both of these use job queue for the updates [16:08:22] or is it forcelinksupdate [16:08:25] i can never remember that [17:03:40] MatmaRex: null edit is immediate [17:05:17] forcelinkupdate is immediate too, as long as it is on a particular page and not a template [17:09:34] Betacommand: yes, i meant doing it to the template to update all pages that transclude it [17:09:47] thats a different command [17:10:17] recursive or something [17:10:45] forcerecursivelinkupdate [17:11:06] that uses the jobqueue [17:12:23] ah, maybe. i vaguely recall something about that being changed [20:02:39] hi. is there a way to search for categories whose page doesn't exist but where some other pages or files are categorized in them? [20:04:31] b_jonas, well there's Special:WantedCategories [20:05:06] Krenair: ah thanks, that seems to be what I'm asking for [20:05:26] (more difficult is finding pages where the "[[Category: ]]" part is misspelt) [20:06:28] not much you can do about those than fixing the typo [20:06:38] sure, but it's hard to find them [20:06:50] I searched for "Cateogry" on commons once, but that's just one possible typo [20:06:58] indeed [20:07:10] I recently found "[[Category:something or another}}" on a category [20:07:21] it gets worse when you add more languages too [20:07:53] it's likely that those can be found only by getting a full dump and applying some clever heuristics on them [20:08:21] what size is the commons dump (without files) these days? [20:08:24] let me check [20:08:52] well... our search infrastructure is being actively worked on atm [20:09:00] that might help too [20:09:45] http://dumps.wikimedia.org/commonswiki/20140106/ [20:10:03] 3.7GB [20:10:22] probably 15-20 when expanded [20:10:33] that's managable [20:10:40] ok [20:11:14] they have list of all page titles in dumps now? that's great, I always wanted that [20:11:32] i can have that all in memory on my desktop with processing room to spare ;) [20:11:50] what [20:11:51] how [20:12:01] 32GB memory [20:12:27] I don't want to have it in memory. Disk is ok, because once you have the heuristics you likely only want to do one or two pass. [20:12:28] why. [20:12:28] got 24GB in the one it recently replaced... [20:12:48] why not? [20:12:58] have you seen the size of xplane? [20:14:01] multiple bersions of vjsusl studio and phpstorm eats memory quite quickly [20:14:22] versions if visual [20:14:26] of [20:14:29] damn phone
