[12:19:37] <Zoranzoki21>	 Hi, please see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T207626#4865526
[12:19:38] <Zoranzoki21>	 Thanks!
[13:12:51] <shreyasminocha>	 tg for https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Markdown
[13:26:27] <bawolff>	 But wikitext is awesome!
[13:27:51] <bawolff>	 Hmm, its not quite doing it the way i'd hope
[13:28:14] <bawolff>	 It'd be nice if it implemented it as a content model, and then you could mark different pages as whatever type you want using Special:ChanegContentModel
[13:28:55] <bawolff>	 Or at the very least, it should probably be replacing the parser for pages, as the current implementation would also probably trigger for i18n messages, which would probably cause random bad things to happen
[14:06:08] <shreyasminocha>	 bawolff: hmm
[14:07:04] <shreyasminocha>	 it's a bit too powerful (and thus broader) for my tastes. besides i am already in a habit of using markdown, so i'm probably biased
[14:08:16] <shreyasminocha>	 yeah, your proposal makes sense. but then it's too late :D
[16:57:35] <sd_>	 hello anyone here?
[17:01:18] <Reedy>	 many people
[17:02:11] <mutante>	 http://rurounijones.github.io/blog/2009/03/17/how-to-ask-for-help-on-irc/
[17:03:21] <mutante>	 !ask is http://rurounijones.github.io/blog/2009/03/17/how-to-ask-for-help-on-irc/
[17:03:22] <wm-bot>	 Unable to modify the database, access denied, link to the database isn't valid
[17:04:29] <sd_>	 Any advice for a GSoC aspirant? What projects would be worth trying for a beginner JS programmer? (I am not that familiar with PHP)
[17:05:48] <Reedy>	 I would suggest getting some PHP experience if you're considering things that Wikimedia may offer
[17:05:56] <Reedy>	 Not all projects will be PHP/JS, but it's certainly more likely
[17:07:32] <mutante>	 sd_: you could also contact her:  https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:SSethi_(WMF)
[17:07:59] <mutante>	 she deals with GSoC and Outreachy at WMF
[17:08:41] <mutante>	 and maybe check out IRC: #wikimedia-devrel
[17:12:41] <sd_>	 Thanks for the pointers!
[17:30:44] <apergos>	 hey tech folks, does techcomm have an irc meeting today?
[17:31:01] <apergos>	 I kind of thought there would have been an email but I might have missed it too
[17:35:43] <James_F>	 apergos: I think not? Not seen anything.
[17:36:16] <apergos>	 ok!  that means no midnight meeting for me, which is a Good Thing ™
