[00:03:29] [1/2] Hello, any idea why https://celestialcaverns.miraheze.org/wiki/File:Singularity_Effect.webp appears like that, while working perfectly fine on https://static.wikitide.net/celestialcavernswiki/a/a2/Singularity_Effect.webp [00:03:30] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500286641837838447/image.png?ex=69f7e251&is=69f690d1&hm=0e40ab86832e8c633b176bfd2d8302f1640553d56cd75af8859f0a18eafac09f& [00:06:45] my tab has crashed trying to load this in my user page [00:06:55] ⚰️ [00:07:30] [1/2] I don't think MediaWiki supports animated webp? They're not animated on commons either. [00:07:31] [2/2] https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Animated_WebP_files [00:08:28] a:dies: [00:08:43] Why [00:09:12] We are trying to escape gifs due to how poor their quality and file size is [00:09:17] Too new. You can probably use some js trickery to show animated webp though. [00:09:53] Thumbro has animated WebP support but [00:10:22] Something like `
Image placeholder/div` and then use js to replace the div with the actual image. [00:10:30] Extension review jail 😭 [00:11:06] [1/2] how good is a 1s LCP considered [00:11:06] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500288555950542868/image.png?ex=69f7e419&is=69f69299&hm=dfb19124c9ce01adac94b5591a4cb4a65e1ede76954e21e81b43b13682ae18a8& [00:14:02] Slightly higher than normal I think? I tested on 3 wikis. On the first 2 it's between 0.2s-0.5s. On the third it's 0.8s-1s. [00:14:36] You also want to log out before testing anything, as logging in bypasses some caching mechanisms. [00:15:38] Third one is using citizen btw. Though it is also very CSS heavy which could be a contributing factor. [00:16:32] It also depends on your network conditions. So maybe compare against Meta. [00:21:53] [1/4] $('a[href$=".webp"] img[src*="fileicon.png"]').attr('src', function() { [00:21:53] [2/4] return $(this).closest('a').attr('href'); [00:21:53] [3/4] }); [00:21:54] [4/4] that works but takes some time to replace the image ') [00:22:14] Extension:RenderBlocking? [00:22:23] trying [00:22:28] waiting for it to apply [00:22:42] It should work with `?debug=2` [00:23:19] [1/3] https://celestialcaverns.miraheze.org/wiki/File:Singularity_Effect.webp?debug=2 [00:23:20] [2/3] https://celestialcaverns.miraheze.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Renderblocking.js [00:23:20] [3/3] either it doesn't work with renderblocking or idk [00:24:39] is there a convenient extension for local js testing like stylus is for css [00:24:56] You need to do `window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", () => { ... }` [00:25:09] See the example on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:RenderBlocking#Theme_wiki_pages_based_on_the_category [00:28:14] it works! [00:28:15] [1/2] > Furthermore, you can use the browser's developer tools to override the content of the network request to the extension's API: this will replace the returned JavaScript code from the server with what you want to test.

[00:31:20] [1/2] You might see a different interface on Firefox [00:31:21] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500293650091999323/image.png?ex=69f7e8d8&is=69f69758&hm=8cb5166b58b7f3988ad1970699eef2de6d8cae26c987b243ca4c8e48132a00ae& [00:32:59] There's `set network override` but I don't see a more convenient way to override the response. [00:39:38] [1/3] Oh I just realised that the media link gets stored only on the file page and not when actually using the media- [00:39:38] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500295736099606659/image.png?ex=69f7eac9&is=69f69949&hm=677c147453cf5b3fde236acd2f361369b338321115ff578fbdc898850bace52f& [00:39:38] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500295736506581144/image.png?ex=69f7eac9&is=69f69949&hm=db4ce838fa92bcae27eee850cf2f87b76ec06bf8224051ce77a38fc728eca469& [00:39:43] Well yea its gonna be painful [00:40:50] ^ This might be necessary then [01:11:12] so you have to write it every single time you make a table? [01:11:15] hmm [01:11:21] I am using the visual editor [01:11:47] I was thinking, maybe is there a way to put a code in commons.css or sum to make this automatically [01:13:51] there are a few ways to make tables easier. Templates is porbably more feasible though [01:14:44] Yeah that'll be the better approach. For tables of a certain class change the background color of the heading. [01:15:48] [1/2] got this error trying to save one of my pages 😕 and it keeps happening.

Bad gateway errors as seen in #tech-ops, which has been on fire lately. [01:35:48] gateway errors [01:35:52] Same [01:35:54] the miraheze server is on fire [01:36:04] The hell is going on [01:36:27] Quick, get some marshmallows as we make some s'mores as the servers are on fire. [01:36:43] I just wanted to edit my wiki's CSS I got cooking in my sandbox, but looks like I'll have to do that offline until someone gets some hot Schmoe's ready.

[01:47:50] yee [01:47:55] mods know about it [01:48:30] Yes... here too [01:48:43] Expected, I've removed one of our database servers from production while it is having problems [01:49:27] Ah [01:50:43] [1/2] Nope, not getting this.

[01:52:31] Good to know that it ain't js my server experiencing this lol [01:53:05] Hope things go well, Void! [01:54:08] Gotcha, ty Void, I hope it goes well [01:54:56] It's essentially just waiting on a restart at this point [01:58:05] Hello [01:58:15] Wild. I have two wikis and one id down and the other isnt lol [01:58:59] different databases I presume. [02:10:58] [1/4] Does anyone know why the wikitable template from Help:Infobox 101 isn't centering when I use it? [02:10:59] [2/4] I've literally copy-pasted the same code from the help page, and it's still left aligned [02:10:59] [3/4] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500318723846963343/image.png?ex=69f80032&is=69f6aeb2&hm=4a93961b48e9d8c69641b920da055386de80fe50735923b9d9a8cfba06b9958c& [02:10:59] [4/4] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500318724320788582/image.png?ex=69f80032&is=69f6aeb2&hm=d0ce68e1dd1b4ae75412d920d2c62fdf7390c5b3f351596f8f89d4cca28eb623& [02:11:29] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500318852783804628/image.png?ex=69f80051&is=69f6aed1&hm=137dff809ea2f7b1c4edc436c91174a2de858827094a224a5efdb34bc4be718f& [02:12:56] I'm working on a new wiki and don't get much time during the week due to work. Does anyone know how long maintenance can last? [02:21:48] alt crystal form what doing >? [02:22:13] hm? [02:22:32] Should be back up for all soon [02:22:50] nvm [02:24:39] i love the refreshed skin [02:25:21] Same. I've been busy adjusting it on my CSS page for a good chunk of last night and today. [02:25:33] Yeah I'm a big Refreshed fan too. [02:25:51] I got pretty attached to HasSomeColors too recently. [02:26:08] So flexible and so customizable for Refreshed. I love it. HasSomeColors is nice. [02:27:01] I tried Medik. I liked it at first but edit being under a dropdown got really old after awhile. [02:27:15] Also the drop down just stopped working at some point no matter what I did [02:28:41] 😭 [02:31:17] Thank you for jumping in on a weekend! [02:51:58] the only thing i DESPISE about refreshed is that it for some reason creates a whole different html tag for when you focus on a button [02:52:34] like... excuse me?? couldn't you have used the :focus filter??? [02:53:04] Apparently not. Now I have to go through hoops to make things work. [02:54:10] i'm not a web developer (yet), but that thing sounds like break a bajillion web design rules [02:54:50] many web developers are busy breaking all of the web design rules all the time [02:55:10] CSS wizards aren't happy. 😭 [02:55:17] i wonder if wikimedia is one of them [02:55:29] with their absurd amounts of variables [02:56:44] not particularly, variables are fine, maybe a little just for the fact that it's obviously been around for a long time and legacy can come with difficulties that aren't necessarily easily gotten around. wikimedia is rather old-school web which I'll take any day over [the 49mb web page](https://thatshubham.com/blog/news-audit) [02:57:25] dayum [02:58:09] Wow. [03:00:05] i really want to start learning web design tbh, got a handy HTML5 & CSS3 book so that'll be nice to have [03:15:44] are the servers back up yet [03:17:25] just curious and I'm sure this has been asked before but I didn't see it in my search: How long do the wiki requests for new users usually take? couple hour? couple days? couple weeks? [03:21:01] Days usually if it's not insta approved by the AI reviwer [03:21:23] ty [03:22:25] Yes. Everything should be up now. [03:22:37] There's a website I know which is selling the wiki domain for like almost 3 dollars for the first year and after that it's 13.50 or smth every year [03:22:50] Don't know how reliable or trusted it is [03:23:51] I'm just gonna use the subdomain, better chance of it lasting longer than I will anyways lol [03:24:01] haha lol [03:24:35] It's called "rayname" btw [03:34:42] Who needs rules when you have pretty website [03:39:00] as a fellow ray... i would never lowball this steep [03:42:25] You bought a domain from that site? [03:44:16] no [04:16:32] [1/3] Is this bug with tabber known? [04:16:32] [2/3] And is there a way to fix it?

I made the right call for us moving to here. [05:15:05] is there a way to mass links using curly apostrophes to straight apostrophes [05:52:51] Looks like https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-extensions-TabberNeue/issues/252 and we just need to update TabberNeue to fix it. [05:59:27] That JS fix is just what we needed, thank you! [06:10:14] Hi [06:11:31] Hi. [06:12:30] I using IRC [06:14:35] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500380029320691783/Tabber_fix.gif?ex=69f8394a&is=69f6e7ca&hm=7242607c9c6775fc0f1d2d56f65fc3931f6dc6b13ed3ad38cda59595748d332f& [06:15:45] I thought it was similar to the tag.

Just need someone to test the new extension version and then deploy it across the farm. [07:26:11] [1/2] was wondering why the bg is white when i made it black [07:26:12] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500398050890223726/image.png?ex=69f84a13&is=69f6f893&hm=2f0f9e1d8893c22248a5ab61ee9321e73d94a39c066e77f6d89b68ed7a36e10a& [07:26:18] until i realised im using dark mode [07:26:26] inverting suuuccckkkssss [08:31:35] usb [09:00:33] it only really works if you keep up with every potential example where the invert needs a revert [09:39:52] <.labster> Weird page behavior report. Basically, I could not create a templatestyles CSS page that contained an external link... to upload.wikimedia. Page creation would simply fail. But once the page was created, then I could add the image by passing the Captcha. [10:06:53] I love captchas [10:14:30] @kostajh given you were asking about Captchas, new bug ^ [10:22:06] On which site? [10:22:30] Page creation vs edit is probably not as thoroughly tested [10:23:37] @notaracham Looks it's the Miraheze ToS supersoldier who represents the views of the Miraheze stewards and only ever reports in good faith [10:47:52] have you considered the possibility that nobody wants to hear about your spats with NA and the other stews [10:52:48] @.labster [10:53:05] We're not going here [10:54:23] ik [10:54:37] I wasn't planning on dragging it out beyond there [10:54:41] [1/3] @posix_memalign hey using your suggestion with filepath and data attributes I was able to create template for rendering animated webp media relying on js, but there is another issue I am not sure how do deal with. Using webp images within :uhhh: [10:54:41] [2/3] Would it even be possible [10:54:41] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500450517946601564/image.png?ex=69f87af0&is=69f72970&hm=78654ddebd2c28798991bf32550a34dfb4b62d799b13e5deacf5323b140b6419& [11:05:19] I assume the only way is storing filepath in file description and then reapplying it for the media or something like that [11:21:28] yep that worked [11:59:52] anyone know a better to force literally every gif in a wiki to autoplay, because the setting to make it do that just doesnt work [11:59:58] and im forced to use js to make it work [12:00:13] and one page in my wiki has like a gazillion gifs and it sometimes takes forever to load [12:00:14] (sometimes) [12:10:39] Did you adjust $wgMaxAnimatedGifArea [12:12:54] I'd say if your page takes forever to load it's probably because the GIFs are huge not necessarily because you're using JS to autoplay them [12:13:36] Though if you adjust the max allowed animated area you would get proper GIF thumbnails which would be smaller in size [12:14:56] And make sure to enable $wgNativeImageLazyLoading as well [12:20:22] fascisnating [12:42:50] yes i did [12:42:54] it did nothing for like a day [12:43:05] not even sure by how much i should adjust it [12:44:34] Check your largest GIFs by size and multiply width x height x frames [12:45:03] If that number is above $wgMaxAnimatedGifArea the GIF won't be animated [12:45:46] Which tells you how much you need to increase it [12:46:16] After adjusting you'll need to purge the pages using the GIFs such that the thumbnails regenerate [12:46:39] absolutely no clue as how to how ill find my largest gifs LOL [12:46:45] i think i have an idea as to [12:46:50] which is the biggest probably [12:47:08] holy shit what 😭 [12:47:34] Do you know how to purge pages [12:47:50] 13904640 the number i got [12:48:04] [1/2] just this right...

My mobile and desktop versions look completely different. https://outlanders.miraheze.org/wiki/Spicy_Beer_Case_Study [15:23:41] [2/3] https://outlanders.miraheze.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css [15:23:41] [3/3] https://outlanders.miraheze.org/wiki/Module:Infobox/styles.css [15:40:08] sick logo [15:46:24] Thanks yo [15:52:13] tv [16:36:10] Why are so many core features hidden away on random special pages [16:36:33] Like adding a user as an administrator, you'd think that would be in the 'Permissions' area of the additional settings, but no, it's a random unmarked special page [16:36:35] like huh [16:39:35] <_chrs_, replying to empermanual> that one is linked in the sidebar of the user/contributions page of whoever you want to affect [16:40:16] [1/2] It just feels like there are a bunch of pages which should be linked centrally, but aren't [16:40:16] [2/2] So if you don't know what you're looking for already, they're harder to find [17:13:24] What do you mean centrally [17:15:13] ManageWiki is just for changing your wiki settings [17:17:52] I'm sorry if I'm being dense. I think there have just been a few instances where I thought important pages (like create a page, common css, etc) would be linked in the boilerplate main page, or in the sidebar/top ribbon. But they're not and I had to search on google to find them [17:18:39] Yeah I think there are some efforts to make the boilerplate main page more useful [17:19:01] If you're talking about the caption, add `display: block;` to [line 130 of your styles.css]() [17:19:30] Though that wouldn't help you in the long term since the boilerplate main page isn't very useful to readers and you'd eventually replace it with something else, if your wiki is public [17:21:05] [1/3] I put commonly used links on my userpage, since I'm usually the only one editing Common.css or Common.js or gadgets etc () [17:21:06] [2/3] Creating a page is really simple: just add the name of the page you want to create to the end of your wiki's url [17:21:06] [3/3] So if I wanted to create a page named `Blargh` I'd go to `https://dappervolk.miraheze.org/wiki/Blargh` [17:22:03] None of MediaWiki's recommended ways to create a page are particularly user friendly, unfortunately [17:23:08] Yeah once I worked out how to edit the sidebar (thanks to the good folks here) it got a lot easier but I was very confused initially [17:23:20] [1/2] Thank you! Although, it still seems to be missing something. 🤔 [17:23:20] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500548325512843376/image.png?ex=69f8d607&is=69f78487&hm=9e251b4edfa800d0c55410c4b3fb8808496f72ea339602b4d3fc82ec31db3745& [17:24:26] I don't know what it's missing, can you point it out on the screenshot? [17:24:48] [1/2] ah, yes. Compared to the desktop/wide page version: [17:24:48] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500548694544744448/image.png?ex=69f8d65f&is=69f784df&hm=cdc126d72c6a044a66ee93b7fe5ad061315fea32823424da9db68d6f4d9942dc& [17:25:14] So, sorry, it's that the caption is outside of the grey part? Is that what you're asking? [17:25:20] yep! [17:27:59] Tbh I have no clue, it seems to be applied from your module [17:29:48] Ah.. hmmm.. interesting, was worried it was something like that. I took that one from the Miraheze meta wiki. Is there another module implementation I should use instead (open question to anyone 😄)? [17:36:31] With regard to stylesheets, why would someone use module:infobox/styles.css instead of template:infobox/styles.css? KaCii uses the former where I use the latter... is one more correct standards-wise? [17:36:57] I just took it from seeing it elsewhere. Yours honestly seems a little more correct than mine [17:38:21] I approached mine the way I did because AI told me to. So we very well could both be wrong to some degree. [17:43:05] It would appear if your infobox is Lua driven rather than wikitext, your approach would make the most sense. But both achieve the same thing more or less, just different namespaces. [17:43:50] <.labster, replying to rhinosf1> bucketwiki [17:44:59] @kostajh https://bucket.miraheze.org [17:45:37] <.labster, replying to kostajh> https://bucket.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:Calendar/styles.css?action=history&curid=155& Had to double-edit here [17:57:05] [1/17] the problem was that on the narrow version it was not applying `display: table` to the parent `table.infobox`. This was coming from `load.php`: [17:57:05] [2/17] ``` [17:57:06] [3/17] @media all and (max-width:calc(640px - 1px)) { [17:57:06] [4/17] .mw-parser-output { [17:57:06] [5/17] } [17:57:07] [6/17] .mw-parser-output table { [17:57:07] [7/17] display:block; [17:57:07] [8/17] overflow:auto; [17:57:07] [9/17] max-width:100%; [17:57:08] [10/17] width:fit-content [17:57:08] [11/17] } [17:57:09] [12/17] .mw-parser-output .noresize table { [17:57:09] [13/17] display:table [17:57:10] [14/17] } [17:57:10] [15/17] } [17:57:11] [16/17] ``` [17:57:11] [17/17] No idea the significance of it, but there you go [18:37:58] Hmm. I wonder if I might benefit from using page forms over templates directly [18:38:30] [1/2] > Why does Page Forms support editing templates and page sections, but not, say, free-form category tags within pages? That's because the philosophy of Page Forms is that all true data in MediaWiki - including data, category information and anything else - should be stored within template invocations. [18:38:30] [2/2] This is mostly the mindset I am approaching from [18:41:21] I like forms editors don't have to interact with wikitext editor at all [18:41:51] Some content isn't really meant to be free-form and forms take less time (imo) [18:42:11] Yeah, that's what I'm thinking would be good. Especially if I can have some more control or clarity to users over what data is expected in a field (not sure if they provide this, but eh, just would be a pro if it does) [18:43:30] It provides auto complete and labels [18:43:41] oh lovely. Alright, I'll definitely give them a go then [22:17:03] [1/2] someone at the dpl wiki has got to fix this [22:17:03] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1500622243737239602/image.png?ex=69f91adf&is=69f7c95f&hm=a9439dd02f693c7ebc39dd074924cc322d5609e76205bc671881b54955350c8e& [22:31:54] There's https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Steward_requests/Restricted_changes#c-PetraMagna-20260429070900-Dormancy_policy_exemption_for_dpl4wiki but @cosmicalpha needs to give confirmation. In the meantime I edited my sandbox page which would put the wiki out of inactivity. [22:32:50] phew [23:37:06] If I only just enabled PageImages and Previews extensions, will any amount of ?action=purge speed things up, or is this just one of those wait-it-out things? [23:41:19] If you purge page A and then go to page B, then any links on page B that point to page A will have a popup [23:41:48] however tbh there's not really any reason to purge all pages [23:47:04] anyone here who can weigh in on whether this is safe to merge? https://github.com/miraheze/mw-config/pull/6398 [23:47:27] send here #tech [23:47:35] oop
