[00:59:33] hi ! anyone able to rename users at wikitech ? [01:00:39] lfschenone: it's not completely impossible but really complicated [01:00:49] there is like one case, this https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T85913 [01:00:56] https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Renaming_users [01:01:38] yea, needs work on 3 different systems. LDAP, wiki and Gerrit [01:01:44] and Gerrit is migrated currently [01:02:19] hm, ok, do you recommend i post on the phabricator task ? [01:02:34] yes please [01:02:38] thx [01:02:43] you could click "create subtask" [01:02:54] then you get a separate one but same people subscribed already [01:02:59] and linked [12:40:12] Error: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/load.php?debug=false&lang=en&modules=ext.gadget.libGlobalReplace%2ClibWikiDOM%7Cjquery.mwExtension&skin=vector&version=2dae889fdc8b at line 7: TypeError: mw.libs.wikiDOM is undefined [12:40:21] anyone a iddea what is causing this error? [12:41:10] * Steinsplitter pokes MatmaRex :) [12:42:02] missing dependencies, i'd guess [12:42:40] Steinsplitter: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-libGlobalReplace.js uses mw.libs.wikiDOM [12:42:42] MatmaRex: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Gadget-libGlobalReplace.js any iddea how to fix that? It is a widely used (default) gadget. (otherwise i won't disturb people here) [12:43:31] although, hmm. it seems to have the dependency defined at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition [12:45:26] Steinsplitter: what did you do to get this error? [12:45:36] renaming a file [12:45:53] the gadget is replacing the usage then. [12:53:40] Steinsplitter: argh. i think i see why [12:54:25] Steinsplitter: looking at the bottom of https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-libWikiDOM.js - it seems that this library is written to allow loading it in the browser, or server-side in Node.JS or something like that [12:54:31] with the 'module.exports' thing [12:54:44] except that we've very recently added support for module.exports to ResourceLoader [12:55:11] so it's no longer setting mw.libs.wikiDOM, and anything that used it broke [12:56:14] looking at https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Search&search=module.exports&fulltext=Szukaj&profile=all , there might be a few other affetced scripts [12:58:29] Steinsplitter: the culprit is https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/265793/ . i'll fix the gadget [13:03:21] Steinsplitter: this should fix it: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Gadget-libWikiDOM.js&diff=194796369&oldid=164697547 please verify that it works (i don't think i have the rights on commons that would let me use these) [13:04:16] MatmaRex: Thanks a LOT!!! [13:04:30] from the search i linked earlier, MediaWiki:Gadget-jquery.mousewheel.js shouldn't be affected (but please also verify if you know how to enable that script), MediaWiki:Unorm.js seems abandoned so i'm not touching it until someone complains, and User:Rillke/CodeMirror/lib/codemirror.js is in user's namespace so i'm not touching it either [13:07:50] works now :) will check the other [13:07:56] thx again [13:08:30] yay [16:34:18] Hello! We'd like to prevent use of PUA characters in titles. Is it a bug in MediaWiki that it is currently allowed? Or should we add something to the mediawiki:titleblacklist (any tips)? [16:35:06] What is "PUA"? [16:35:18] private use areas of Unicode [16:35:52] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Use_Areas [16:36:06] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T44807 I guess [16:37:52] !wg LegalTitleChars | Skalman [16:38:00] ...where is the bot?... [16:38:20] Skalman: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgLegalTitleChars [16:38:50] this is not a unicode regex, but a byte-wise regex, it seems [16:39:22] DanielK_WMDE: I can't tell whether PUA is included or not, but on a Wikimedia wiki they are allowed (sv-wikt) [16:40:23] Skalman: yea, don't know whether this is intentional. file a ticket? [16:40:49] DanielK_WMDE: sure - I'll do that [16:40:58] thanks [16:42:02] DanielK_WMDE: any idea of what tag I should use, or should I simply use MediaWiki-General-or-Unknown? [16:42:28] that's the best i can think of off-hand [16:43:00] Skalman: you could also add the i18n tag in addition [16:43:14] ok [16:43:18] the i18n folks generally know most about the ugly details of unicode [16:44:23] Skalman: there is also Wikimedia-Site-requests if you want to request this being disabled on one or all Wikimedia sites. [16:44:39] that's "turn it off for us" vs. "it's a bug that it is possible". [16:44:46] depends on how you want to frame this [16:45:14] I can imagine some wiki wanting to use PUA for special characters in custom fonts [16:46:38] Hmm where did we last use such a regex in core [16:47:15] To identify some indic script I think [16:48:49] Nemo_bis: unicode regex, not PUA regex, right? [16:50:29] Yes, no idea what a PUA regex is [16:50:44] Oh, nice; no more useless "up for grabs" https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T133766#2251641 [16:56:43] Nemo_bis: yeah, because that vague message was actually hiding the previous assignee [17:03:01] created bug report: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T133993 [17:52:51] When did the new Phabricator layout come into place? [17:58:27] Volker_E: Around 18:00 on Wednesday night. [17:58:35] Volker_E: Monthly-ish update. [17:59:40] James_F: Change seemed to have landed for me now (ahem, browser cache) [18:01:15] Any chance to get back to the former layout? [18:06:07] Volker_E: not unless they revert the changes upstream, no [18:08:54] bd808 :{ [18:09:52] bd808: has this been a topic somewhere? Or just to me? [18:10:23] Volker_E: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T133825 [18:11:17] bd808: thanks! [19:57:15] dr0ptp4kt: Hi! many apologies for not having the chance to get back to you about https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T132604 [19:57:55] Before I get to a detailed reply to the points and questions there, pls let me give you a tl;dr of what I'd say, in case you're actively working on stuff: [19:58:25] Recommendation is, don't use a cookie, but rather use the LocalStorage mechanism already integrated into CentralNotice, just for storing a persistent bucket value [19:58:54] While there have been quite valid reservations about LocalStorage most have been addressed [19:59:11] And we're in fact in the process of moving most CentralNotice cookies to LocalStorage, for performance reasons [20:36:35] thanks, AndyRussG [20:48:52] dr0ptp4kt: likewise! I think you said in an e-mail that Jeff is working on this? is he on IRC? [23:43:39] I'm having some issues with crosswiki notifications in Firefox. On enwp, I got a red dot telling me that I have a new message on Wikidata, but when I open the alerts drop-down and click on that one, I get "Could not retrieve notifications. Please try again. (Error: Access to the remote domain was denied)." Reloading in FF (46) made no difference, but when I [23:43:39] opened the same account in Chrome 50, it worked fine. [23:45:30] Oh, RoanKattouw tells me this is a known issue. Stand down the klaxons :)
