[05:33:15] hi there, i want to modify the parsing of my wiki's wikitext, for eg: when we add '''some text''' it gives us "some text" in bold , now can i modify this to return bold text in some different color by some hooks or something?? can anyone guide me in right direction? [08:32:31] hi [08:32:42] anybody good at Echo's whyms? [08:33:13] Are there any limitations on notifications from posts by blocked users or something like that? [08:36:34] I was blocked yesterday in my homewiki in my opinion with violation of the blocking policy of the wiki thus I used links to admins' userpages to invite them for commenting but they never got the notifications. Here's the diff https://uk.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Обговорення_користувача%3ABase&diff=15351356&oldid=15351302 [08:38:02] Base: too many users, for sure. [08:38:10] now that I was writing it I have recalled that I've heared there was a bug when non localized name of ns2 is used (and I used "user" instead of "користувач") but I might be wrong. Anyway it should have been fixed ages ago, doesnt seem like a difficult one to manage [08:38:16] The current limit is 20 mentions per edit, AFAIK. [08:38:27] Nemo_bis: there's a limit? Where's it written? [08:38:36] In the code. [08:38:44] Nemo_bis: and not in the docs? [08:38:53] Echo has docs? Never heard. [08:39:17] And yes, it might also be a namespace issue. [08:39:18] some outdated stuff claiming it exist only on enwiki, meta and mww [08:40:39] Nemo_bis: damn :( are they going to fix it? I mean do you know where's some developing shedule or something?.. [08:41:35] There isn't [08:42:32] this echo thing seems to be good only for editwarring. It nicely says when you're being canceled. In everything other it seems not to be relied on :( [08:43:08] too bad there's no open way to draw attention. Mass emailing will be nothing better than spam :( [08:43:40] heh anyway thank you for the answers [08:43:48] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Echo [08:44:03] Kephir just made this summary, it seems. [08:44:38] It's hard to tell features from bugs, in Echo. But if you identify steps to reproduce an issue, please ensure it's reported. [08:45:58] Nemo_bis: oh so some thing does exist. though I usually expect non techical things to be in ns Help [08:46:47] It was in Help, but I moved it to Manual because it *is* technical [08:47:18] well the part about number of users triggered and so on doesnt seem too much technical [08:47:33] or it's just because it's the one I need xD [08:48:22] All the text is under a section "Technical details" and half of it is footnotes mentioning code lines... [08:48:32] Definitely not what our help pages look like. :) [08:49:49] Nemo_bis: well perhaps some more codephobs' friendly Help version should be made :) [08:51:40] Of course it *should*. It should have been made two years ago. [16:04:15] hi, could someone please review this cute little change? https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/180813/ [16:04:52] Kronf: Sorry... but we're not deploying until January [16:05:04] Not enough people at work, so the risk is to high for now [16:05:08] Kronf, sure, review looks good! [16:05:14] ;) [16:05:52] hoo: oh, ok thanks [16:18:22] thx [16:54:35] Why did https://tools.wmflabs.org/meetbot/wikimedia-office/2014/wikimedia-office.201 [16:54:38] no [16:54:51] Why did https://old-bugzilla.wikimedia.org search get so slow lately [17:10:57] Nemo_bis: it was always slow for me. [17:12:11] Dunno, it varies [17:12:23] Cold DB I think, second attempt went through
