[00:33:31] parent5446: hey, what do you suggest i do now? [00:33:52] I have submitted patches for some microtasks, it is waiting to be merged, some have been merged [00:34:01] and also i have reported a bug [00:34:23] Meanwhile i am trying to fix more bugs(microtasks) and my proposal is up and running, what do you suggest i do? [00:34:39] parent5446: does the proposal need more edits or improvements? [01:23:27] hello, is there a way to fetch how many pages link to a specific page using {{Special:Whatlinkshere}} or with some other magic word? [02:44:02] nowiki is now close to nowiki... very sluggish response, often request terminates with no response at all. [02:45:10] sems to be back now.. o_O [03:03:29] it will be moved to no-more.wikipedia.org tomorrow .. [03:22:56] When nowiki is down the Norwegian wikipedians grows teeth and claws and starts to kill small kittens.. [03:23:22] Actually, seems to be win10 that started a background download [04:00:36] win10 is a virus :/ GET RID OF IT!!! [05:43:29] comets: lol [08:09:33] [[Tech]]; Mumken123; /* Error when connecting to old database */ new section; https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?diff=14397737&oldid=14366045&rcid=6954684 [09:07:27] lol http://stats.grok.se/en.v/latest90/Special:HideBanners [09:20:21] [[Tech]]; Nemo bis; /* Error when connecting to old database */ +re; https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?diff=14398309&oldid=14397737&rcid=6954777 [11:55:13] hey guys ! not sure where this bug falls in, but when attempting to use the mediaviewer, or attempt to access to commons directly, by clicking on the infobox picture in https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Newsted , one ends up viewing a different image with what appears to be the same filename [11:55:49] in the article, the photo is mostly blue-ish, whereas the mediaviewer and commons show a completely different, mostly yellow-ish picture [11:56:44] the url for the blue-ish one is https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e1/Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg/220px-Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg , that for the yellowish one is https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e1/Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg [11:58:24] Alphos, cannot reproduce here with MultimediaViewer which shows the yellowish image in https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Newsted#/media/File:Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg [11:58:47] andre__ : do you still see the blue-ish one in the infobox ? [11:58:54] no, the yellow one [11:58:58] weird [11:59:00] Alphos, did you bypass your browser cache? [11:59:08] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bypass_your_cache [11:59:21] i'd never seen the page before, and i've done it a few times since [11:59:24] https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg shows the yellowish one for me [11:59:28] (deleted the cache) [11:59:43] apparently it's a cache for an old deleted picture by the same name from 2012 [11:59:51] (server-side, obv) [11:59:55] and your link goes to the 220px thumbnail version [11:59:59] which **is** the blueish one [12:00:06] so that 220px version did not get purged. [12:00:09] so there is a bug, yeah [12:00:21] (just that your steps did not work for me) [12:00:28] thought i was going kawazee for a sec :D [12:00:45] well, there were no steps [12:00:58] the blueish shows in the infobox, just not anywhere else [12:01:17] not the mediaviewer, not commons, not frwp/File:, nowhere [12:01:49] So the file did not get updated for the 220px size [12:01:58] Dereckson (admin@commons) managed to view the old file by the same name though [12:02:10] andre__ not for 180px either (i fiddled) [12:02:33] * andre__ goes to https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e1/Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg/220px-Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg?whatever123456 and then to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg?action=purge [12:02:36] haven't really touched commons in eons, is there a way to request all thumbnails be deleted and redone for a given picture ? [12:02:49] Alphos, try again: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e1/Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg/220px-Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg [12:02:53] and bypass your browser cache [12:03:02] yup, yellowish one [12:03:22] so those are the two steps you can perform when this happens [12:03:24] and for 180px too [12:03:40] Go to the thumbnail URL and add some random stuff at the end that starts with a question mark, like ?123456 [12:03:49] then go to the File: page on Commons and add ?action=purge [12:03:51] then action=purge [12:03:55] good to know, thanks :) [12:03:56] if that does not work, the problem is way deeper [12:04:08] Alphos, technically this is covered a bit in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T43130#447471 [12:04:11] in that case, better this channel or #mediawiki ? [12:04:22] It's rather a server issue, so here is fine IMO [12:04:25] IT's fixed Alphos. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Purge covers the topic by the way. [12:04:35] thanks :) [12:04:44] you're welcome [12:04:46] (use ctrl + maj + F5/R as your browser cache still has to be forced too) [12:05:03] (well duh) [12:05:20] this is not the first time i purge my browsers's (plural) cache ;p [12:07:08] So recap: for thumbnails, to purge the image description page uses existing thumb, but if the issue is one of the thumb, perhaps another size of the one on Commons, the solution is to hit https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/thumb.php?f=&w= (here https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/thumb.php?f=Jason_Curtis_Newsted.jpg&w=220) [12:07:19] one of the other thumbs
