[00:06:18] As WWR said, yes, except for restricted pages like login, preferences etc [00:15:58] okay awesome, thanks :D [00:37:29] okay so.. i wrote a script that works in console/testing, it works when i run the exact if statement from my Common.js, but doesnt work on its own [00:37:58] [1/10] ```js [00:37:58] [2/10] if (mw.config.get("wgPageName").includes("Special:MovePage")) { [00:37:59] [3/10] importScript('MediaWiki:RedirectDisable.js'); [00:37:59] [4/10] } [00:37:59] [5/10] ``` [00:38:00] [6/10] ```js [00:38:00] [7/10] checkbox = $('[name="wpLeaveRedirect"]')[0]; [00:38:00] [8/10] checkbox.checked = false; [00:38:01] [9/10] ``` [00:38:01] [10/10] i tried to have the code specifically in common.js but it threw a giant jquery error [00:38:04] it just doesnt do anything despite the code itself working. im baffled [00:40:00] wait omg nevermind it does work it was just taking a while to propagate [00:40:10] well if anyone wants to disable the "Leave a redirect behind" checkbox on Special:MovePage, here you go [00:50:10] [1/4] Hi. In DPL3 to show an abreviated list of pages created by a user, I can do: [00:50:10] [2/4] `|ordermethod=user,firstedit` [00:50:11] [3/4] But that criterion shows older first. [00:50:11] [4/4] Is there a way to make an abreviated list with "most recent first"? [00:57:08] Hello, it's been a long time. I am Hispano76 🙂 @avengium [00:57:51] Hi Hispano Ucronista [00:58:25] [1/2] I think contributions is enough for now. [00:58:26] [2/2] https:// .miraheze.org/wiki/Especial:Contribuciones?end=&namespace=all&newOnly=1&start=&tagfilter=&target=Username [00:59:39] hum, Is there no lasedit parameter? curiosity [01:00:26] Lastedit parameter. Yes [01:00:53] But I thought lastedit could be tricky if the user edit an older article later [01:07:34] Oh, right, I had forgotten. [01:11:59] Just as a test, because I may not have it, try to see if it appears with this. https://dpl4.wikitide.org/wiki/Controlling_output_order#order [01:17:43] I am going to yoink this, thank you! 😛 [01:18:32] please do!! this was bugging me and my staff so much and there doesnt seem to be a config for it LOL so JS to the rescue [01:19:11] [1/2] Yee! [01:19:11] [2/2] I have soooo many unneeded "typo" redirects to delete because of that box DX [01:24:40] right? 😭😭 [01:28:35] It works beautifully! 😃 [01:38:01] :D glad to hear! [01:38:11] im doing a massive move job (100+ files) and it was super getting on my nerves LOL [02:02:12] [1/4] Alright so I figured out how to add the images I needed to my Wiki (yay) ((I need to have like a Newbie to Wiki's tag on my head 😂)) [02:02:12] [2/4] we kept track of all the data on spreadsheets but I wanted to upload this data to a Wiki and each record needed to be its own Wiki page [02:02:13] [3/4] So what I've done so far is made the approx. 350 records from a spreadsheet into .txt files that already have WikiText formatted properly so I could just copy/paste into a new page right now and it'll display properly-- but I don't really want to manually create and copy/paste 350 pages and was wondering if anyone had a suggestion for a quicker solution? My wrists will thank you! 🙏 [02:02:13] [4/4] I guess some info about my level of tech knowledge: I currently am on macOS so I had trouble with some of the .NET solutions I found... 😅 I don't have access to another computer and I'm not extremely tech savvy but I am enough that I can write some basic scripts and following directions [02:43:36] xml dump? if you know how to convert your txt files [02:47:45] To be fair, do you really need to upload all 350 pages as one big import dump? What's wrong with using a tool like pywikibot or Mwn to add your pages for you? [02:48:23] oh yeah that's probably an easier solution than trying to convert it to xml lol [02:53:30] I looked at that briefly and was a tad overwhelmed 😅 I'd love to try if that is a good solution for me 🙂 I've just never used it before [02:54:09] Pywikibot and Mwn are basically bots you can program to add/edit pages to your wiki [02:54:34] But they don't have a UI, so you do need to have programming expertise [02:54:59] Pywikibot is Python while Mwn is JavaScript/Typescript [02:57:51] Hmm so I've done hobbyist levels of python before but nothing more than basic scripts.... its there like a good example script that I can copy that does almost what I need or want that i can use to hash something together take quickly? [02:58:16] I'll write one for you in a moment [02:59:19] In the meantime you could download pywikibot (as source code or as a PIP package) and set up bot passwords [03:05:34] Okay thank you I think i can figure that out [04:53:23] [1/2] Here you go: [04:53:24] [2/2] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User:CoolMikeHatsune22/pywikibot-simple.py [04:54:59] You should make sure that you can login to your wiki using pywikibot first (useful link: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/Use_on_third-party_wikis). You can try on 5 pages at a time, then all the rest once you're happy with it [05:05:53] oh gosh thank you! it's pretty late in my time zone, so I'll check this out tomorrow after work and I appreciate you! 🫶 I feel confident I can read this code and understand it enough to use it 😄 [05:09:59] We love a community helping community, thanks for tooling around w this, cxtwf [05:57:09] Btw we have a help page as well [[Help:Pywikibot]]. It has a bit of extra stuff such as setting a UA. Last time I checked the default pywikibot UA isn't blocked, but it's better to conform to the tech team's requirements. [05:57:10]

[05:58:20] If you're moving pages with a fixed pattern (e.g. replace "A" in the title with "B") there are automated solutions such as https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User%3APetraMagna/jswikibot [06:09:40] thanks for the link, but nah, they cant be automated 😅 [06:10:07] i did look into solutions but the tldr is Tons of badly named files from the wiki's fandom era that needed to be shoved into a consistent format [06:14:26] Yeah file names with random characters or screenshot dates in them are an eye sore. I remember writing a bot to automatically rename files by replacing their occurrences in wikitext a while ago, but I didn't use it much. [06:38:06] Isn’t a volunteer helping the community also a community helping the community? 🤔 [06:38:43] https://tenor.com/view/matrioska-loop-bored-tired-russian-gif-7433508 [06:38:55] We are all communities 🥹 [06:42:24] miraheze [06:57:28] More commenting on folks who don't hold any official roles, but have had a problem, solved it before, and pay it forward. Our volunteers are lovely, but can't do it all themselves nor have the expertise or time to solve all problems [06:58:57] Lots of expertise floating around in this here community of thousands. 😄 [06:59:49] I suppose farms always needs more volunteers, there’s always something to do, right? [07:04:15] we welcome anyone who wants to step into the volunteer active ntry (van) program [07:04:34] (no we don't have an abduction van please stop asking about it) [07:07:17] Last time I saw raidarr abducted you to the Discord Moderator program 😭 [07:07:20] Anyways… [07:20:05] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1463795340439191593/image0.gif?ex=69732125&is=6971cfa5&hm=d237578affd973bd89db2317a8f4109a73bf66e606247d1c1cd8ed4b04b16cfc& [07:22:09] Jokes aside, it isn't some particularly shadowy cabal, I'm just here, full of possible covid, watching cool cooking videos for future dinner ideas. [07:22:18] 9 times out of ten, that's what our volunteers are up to. 😄 [07:23:31] (we are waiting for funding to turn out craft activities into anti-fandom guerilla activities (ads really)) [07:24:07] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AODAwMANijw For those who are interested [07:24:36] (Kenji got some good recipes) [07:24:36] oh my god I love pasta [07:25:42] My good good red beans and rice recipe (which led to people demanding take-home quantities) was from kenji [07:30:13] No results were found, remember, the bot is searching through content of keys and their names [07:30:13] @search he who fights with monsters [07:30:27] Guest72: can we help? [07:31:07] looking for some books, he who fights with monsters series specifically [07:31:22] Guest72: we're a wiki host [07:31:29] Don't think we can help you there [07:31:37] k thx [08:05:36] Uhm my wiki has currently two non-working domains instead of having it be routed [08:05:48] The intention was for it to go from domain to subdomain [08:05:53] But rn they both don't work [08:06:16] Mappingwiki.org says misconfigured and en.mappingwiki.org says the same [08:06:21] What should I do? [08:06:32] I'm pretty sure I made the appropriate requests [08:06:45] What's your wiki? [08:06:57] The Miraheze subdomain [08:08:16] Mapping [08:08:26] Should have en.mappingwiki.org as the new subdomain [08:08:39] And ideally the old root domain should redirect to en.mappingwiki.org [08:08:59] Which it currently doesn't do [08:09:21] I described this in the request [08:09:22] the old root is probably in your court to fix [08:09:25] @pskyechology okay I feel like you are actually getting abducted into miraheze LOL [08:09:29] How would I do that [08:09:35] Congrats tho [08:09:35] Still it doesn't work with the new subdomain [08:10:14] [1/2] Redirects here [08:10:14] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1463807959074078743/Screenshot_20260122_081001_Firefox.jpg?ex=69732ce5&is=6971db65&hm=dbda49ca9b0801be0122885de593d00250f6575a242d032020ad5509366a082e& [08:10:16] https://tenor.com/bVDMM.gif [08:11:40] Definitely tech to advise on this piece, as it's 100% above my personal expertise [08:12:06] I'd like for the wiki to at least work for now [08:12:14] Getting a lot of complaints rn as it's basically bricked [08:12:16] 😭 [08:15:04] @antoniokf5 en.mappingwiki.org should work now, please vaporize your cache if not [08:18:11] urgh caching is such a fickle beast [08:19:16] @blankeclair darling can you make a guide how to completely yeet the varnish cache [08:26:11] Technical squeegees for all the things [08:53:17] Nuked cache and it hasn't [08:53:26] Made sure to even use a second browser [08:53:34] Just redirects to the old domain saying misconfigured [08:54:13] Btw is the ability to redirect from the root domain to the subdomain possible? [08:54:29] Cause otherwise we might experience some issues with search engines and that'd be annoying for us [08:59:26] i wonder if [[tech:varnish]] has it [08:59:27]

[09:01:15] yq [09:02:37] can i even varnish [09:02:48] i mean either way im not home rn [09:09:14] Moment [09:09:23] Btw is this possible? [09:09:28] Even if not through yall [09:16:08] it is [09:17:04] can you make a guide on how to varnish pwetty pweaase [09:19:05] Is it through you guys? [09:19:53] [1/2] either through us, or yourself [09:19:54] [2/2] would suggest through us since you already have it set up to point to us [09:28:32] Alright [09:28:34] I'll just wait then [09:29:10] i do suggest making a [[Phorge]] ticket as I'll likely forget by the time I'm home [09:29:16]

[09:37:32] https://issue-tracker.miraheze.org/T14835 [09:37:33] Done [09:37:37] Thanks for the help [09:43:36] what do you meowwwwww [09:59:40] [1/2] trying to post something on help desk but I get hit with a captcha field that doesnt actually show me a captcha to solve. Tried in both Chrome and Firefox with all extensions disabled. ??? [09:59:40] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1463835501181145213/image.png?ex=6973468c&is=6971f50c&hm=8e92c104f737624c258897d5a2e3f4dfa069ae4fb524bb127019a881a0a09727& [10:06:33] this is an upstream bug with discussion tools unfortunately [10:07:17] captchas should only target external links... so it might help if you get rid of any https:// if you have links, or switch to interwiki linking if you're able... [10:07:42] or edit the page directly if you know how to get normal captchas [10:10:00] thanks, interwiki link worked [10:10:10] Also if anyone has dealt with ImageAnnotator before... [11:39:42] Sup [11:55:02] hey so, how long does it take for a wiki request to be created? [11:55:53] On average if your wiki gets passed to human review it can take up to 4 days. [11:56:12] alr ty [13:05:12] [1/2] how do i fix this? (wanting to edit at school) [13:05:12] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1463882188507320497/image.png?ex=69737207&is=69722087&hm=44aee3c435d092ecff59a46ad26a0e8ecd92820c2127bfc25880d01e33e65eab& [13:10:13] your school's network blocking miraheze perhaps? [13:11:05] or maybe just quic or udp [13:11:17] wish there was an easy way to figure it out tho [13:11:59] im guessing [13:13:14] https://cloudflare-quic.com/ [13:18:59] [1/2] well [13:18:59] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1463885658568392877/image.png?ex=69737542&is=697223c2&hm=274d4e3c6a688be528f7a063464adfac8f2a024f23c648885cd8db4b2448b298& [13:22:57] ow [13:46:00] This is likely a problem at your schools end [13:46:12] Do you happen to still have this? I have quite a lot of files to rename - all of them with the same format - and would love to investigate some automated solutions 👀 [13:49:12] If you have pywikibot installed then you can just use the movepages script. https://ccxtwf.github.io/MirahezeDevScripts/ also contains a port of MassRename [13:50:09] Thank you!! I don't currently have pwb installed but I'll take a look at some of the install guides mentioned above 💃🥳 [13:50:35] Now I have no excuse to stop putting it off 😭 [16:21:09] Ask in #support so it doesn't get lost if you need help [16:25:46] Thanks! I followed that tutorial and got an error "username for miraheze:miraheze is undefined." [16:26:16] I maybe messed up the bot but I thought i copied the stuff right 😅 [17:51:14] it should say `miraheze:language` [18:39:42] So I put en add the language but some warning happened and it said it was changing it, let me at if i can copy paste the warning [18:45:31] User warning: global configuration variable mylang changed to miraheze [18:46:08] Hey I'm new to this, i thought that this would've been a better alternative to fandom, how do i make my wiki? [18:46:52] Heyo, you can request a wiki at [[Special:RequestWiki]] [18:46:53]

[18:47:14] Thanks [18:51:11] <_arawynn, replying to antagmaniac> please keep in mind that it might take a couple days to get your wiki approved [18:51:36] That's completely fine [18:52:36] <_arawynn> I just wanted to let you know^^also if you describe your wiki well enough, the AI might instant-approve it [18:54:17] Yeah ofc, is it fine if i get more info here btw? I never used this at all so i wanna know if i can do certain things beforehand [18:55:20] Feel free to browse through [[How-to guides]] [18:55:20]

[18:55:43] Oh thanks somehow didn't even see that [19:18:20] [1/12] I tested this on my own machine and I think pwb will refuse to change the language if you explicitly specify a language that is different from the site name. It'll just use the site name regardless. We need to change the help page.
