[00:03:47] <paladox>	 Dispenser hi, you will want #wikimedia-cloud
[00:04:53] <Dispenser>	 Right.  Thanks
[08:15:45] <rhinosf1>	 Anyone know why HostBot is sending invites to users who already have them. It's on a trial of new code.
[08:19:02] <rhinosf1>	 ^^ And blocked users ^^
[09:04:05] <re42>	 Hi, I have a question about links to wikipedia images and haven't been able to find help about it by googling, is it okay if I ask here?
[09:04:26] <Reedy>	 Yeah
[09:06:08] <re42>	 I'm working on a markdown proccessor segment in an application, which processes urls ending with .jpg .png ... etc extensions to generate previews, for this, it needs to be able to get the image directly and not be linked to an html page through the url
[09:06:47] <re42>	 but if a user pastes a link to an image from wikipedia
[09:07:35] <re42>	 (eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Clinton_County_Pennsylvania_Courthouse_2_crop.jpg) 
[09:08:41] <re42>	 I can't generate a preview, so is there any way for me to get the url where this image is hosted (in this example https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/20/Clinton_County_Pennsylvania_Courthouse_2_crop.jpg)
[09:09:03] <Reedy>	 One of the simplest ways
[09:09:05] <Reedy>	 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:FilePath/File:Clinton_County_Pennsylvania_Courthouse_2_crop.jpg
[09:09:50] <Reedy>	 You can build that upload.wikimedia.org manually if you wanted, as the path is known (same for getting thumbs from us)
[09:11:43] <re42>	 :o wow, that's great ! Thanks! Let me just quickly see if that "Special:FilePath" works,
[09:11:54] <Reedy>	 it should redirect you to the actual file
[09:13:54] <Reedy>	 the 2/20 is the first two characters of md5( $filename )
[09:14:07] <Reedy>	 So you can build the path up manually too
[09:14:28] <Reedy>	 I guess, partially, it's how much work you want to do, and how robust you need/want it to be
[09:14:36] <re42>	 oh, okay, that makes sense,
[09:14:40] <re42>	 thank you
[09:15:32] <re42>	 I'm not sure if I'll be able to get after the redirect or not, in which case I'll have to build manually, that was just what I was going to check,
[09:25:07] <re42>	 The redirect works like a charm, thank you again!
[09:45:29] <ShakespeareFan00>	 https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Chronological_Table_and_Index_of_the_Statutes/Chronological_Table/Hen3
[09:45:47] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Can some explain why what should be something relatively simple decided to just not work at all?
[09:54:19] <ShakespeareFan00>	 For some reason it's putting in additional whitespace, THAT should not be there
[09:54:59] <ShakespeareFan00>	 and it would be NICE if someone could provide an explanation of how to prevent it doing so in a REPEATABLE way
[09:55:28] <ShakespeareFan00>	 because every time so far I've tried to find a stable way of doing this, I've not been able to.
[09:55:48] <ShakespeareFan00>	 https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Chronological_Table_and_Index_of_the_Statutes/Chronological_Table/Edw4
[09:55:59] <ShakespeareFan00>	 being the same but more visibly the same issues
[11:42:46] <rhinosf1>	 How long should it take for action on a phab ticket? E.g. Triage
[11:43:59] <bawolff>	 honestly, depends on a lot of factors
[11:44:18] <bawolff>	 If its an unmaintained area of the code base, could take forever
[11:44:29] <bawolff>	 at the very least, for non-critical bugs, it would probably take a week
[11:44:42] <bawolff>	 keep in mind, today is a holiday at WMF
[11:45:32] <rhinosf1>	 Understood, How is it a holiday?
[11:45:42] <bawolff>	 Its like president's day or something
[11:45:56] <bawolff>	 Generally WMF follows US holidays, even for employees outside US
[11:46:20] <rhinosf1>	 ah
[11:46:26] <bawolff>	 although some people work on those day nonetheless
[11:46:45] <bawolff>	 I think real employees can shift their holiday's around if they want
[11:46:57] <bawolff>	 and contractors don't get paid vacation anyhow, so it doesn't really matter
[11:48:05] <rhinosf1>	 Just wondering with T216352 from the other day - it probably will be pretty low priority.
[11:48:05] <stashbot>	 T216352: Link Preview Fails when first section title is before lead - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T216352
[11:48:48] <rhinosf1>	 did you ever find out what was happening with T213616
[11:49:38] <bawolff>	 Umm, no, I'll mention it in my team meeting tomorrow that we should nag SRE about it
[11:50:49] <rhinosf1>	 Thanks bawolff, I'd have thought that was a big one given the potential security risk.
[16:00:26] <Wurgl>	 Please, can give me anyone some hint about the allowed characters in parameter names of templates?
[16:02:24] <Wurgl>	 {{#if: {{{Vitamin E<sub>2</sub>|}}} ...  <-- that seems to work, what else on strange names is allowed?
[19:49:18] <McJohn>	 CKoerner_WMF: Was T146418 discussed somewhere as being desirable?
[19:49:19] <stashbot>	 T146418: Special:Contributions lists namespaces by index number, which is not intuitive - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T146418
[19:49:48] <McJohn>	 I left a comment, but it seems to me to be likely to ruffle a lot of feathers
