This could also potentially be used for core features, such as protection. These currently use templates on some wikis, but it would make sense in core. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

I am, but I've been to busy. I actually have page icons on the roadmap for skin rewriting, since as far as I'm concerned, they're part of skinning. However it's at a post-template-language implementation point. I want to take advantage of the xml/html based template language's ability to usage detect. ie: If you omit the page icons' marker it'll automatically inject it into the page title's content so that it still shows up. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

However, since page_props has a unique key on the page and name columns, I would have to be packing all emblems into a JSON blob or something to make use of it - something I have mixed feelings about. To elaborate on mixed feelings (for using page_props) For: Fewer moving parts == Less complexity == good Against: Packing data into a single page_prop row would make the data nearly un-query-able. For: The data isn't really very query-able anyways, and packing it would probably be more performant. Against: Maybe the data should be more queryable, such as requiring the emblem to be a template call or something, not just arbitrary wikitext So - yeah, please feel free to weigh in, or just change the code, it's open source after all - I would welcome contribution and have no firm position on this matter. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

The problem with this is that there are other elements that must be sort-in with javascript, but I guess it would simplify existing scripts anyway. To see what I mean have a look at: http://pl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:HeadingIcons.js We put in header and sort: * editsection - 0-section edit link added basically when articles are long * padlock - added for locked articles * (anything other goes here) * coordinates * shortcut_upper - WP:FP and such An over exaggerated example is here: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Beau/brudnopis Note that in practice only one of icons on the right side of coords can exist in one article. Anyway I don't think a 0-section link and padlock can be added with a template...

The padlock /could/ be added with this, just as it is done now. Although perhaps some auto-magic could be used to automatically show it on protected articles.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23796 --- Comment #27 from entli...@gmx-topmail.de 2010-09-23 05:51:19 UTC --- Some figures from dewiki: We currently have 10 templates that generate icons, but they are rarely combined. The vast majority of our 1125000 articles (99.5%) has no icons. 5762 articles have 1 icon, 121 articles have 2 icons, and I'm not aware of any situation where an article could have 3 or more icons. We also have 11 templates that create text elements; the most used is the coordinates template with nearly 20 transclusions (18% of all articles). The text can be rather long because Swiss towns have their coordinates in WGS84 and the Swiss national format (therefore the tiny font size of 10px), and they can also occur together with icons (see e.g. [[de:Tägermoos]]). The text templates are deliberately made so that no more than 1 can be used on a page (they would overlap). I'm a little worried about the order in which the items appear in the wikitext becoming significant. That's fine for icons, but it may be desired to differentiate between icons and text elements. At dewiki, in most cases the coordinates are transcluded from and infobox the top of the article that can't be moved. Similarly, the icons are transcluded from a template at the bottom of the article that can't be moved either. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

How consistent is the templating to get these icons up there?

I don't think this is a big deal. Any given wiki probably only has a few widely-used templates that do this effect, and they can all be changed simultaneously to the new system. If there are any less widely-used templates that do it, it's okay if they break for a little while until someone notices and fixes them.

Allowing arbitrary HTML would over-complicate the situation in my opinion. What are the serious use-cases for placing something other than an icon in this location? Is that really the best place for that content, or is that just a place that was chosen arbitrarily? However, if there is a reasonable use-case, then I think we should support it. (In reply to comment #18) I don't think this is a big deal I'm not suggesting it's impossible or even hard to transition, I'm suggesting a transition strategy.

We shouldn't really limit the number like that, on articles that may be fine but people do use them else where, for example on en.wiki they are/can used to symbolize user rights (the mop, rollbacker, crat etc) or other things (Eg: [[User:Daniel]] uses ~24 icons to denote things. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

And this is good why? I'm nearly done with my first revision of this thing, and I have yet to place limitations on it. If I do add limitations it would only be for initial view, and by expanding it a cookie would be set and it would display expanded from there on out until you collapsed it. Something like that would server both purposes. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

We expando everything. Too much, imo.

(In reply to comment #24)
How about r73498 - a new extension called ArticleEmblems. It collects the
contents of emblem.../emblem tags and adds them to a list rendered at the
top of the page.
Magic words and other variables like that generally aren't available to
XML-style tags, so emblem{{PAGENAME}}/emblem will probably fail. This can
be worked around with {{#tag:emblem|{{PAGENAME I suppose, but it might be
better to implement as {{#emblem:}} from the outset (similar to the
{{#pageicon:}} proposal above).
I suppose I should probably go install the new extension and test it out before
commenting further. :-)

Oh, bug 2257 (about XML-style tags and extensions) was fixed awhile ago. Hot
damn. :D
I tested this new extension on localhost. It seems to work pretty well, though
it's not purging the page cache when a template is changed. I'll leave a
detailed comment at r73498.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23796 --- Comment #13 from entli...@gmx-topmail.de 2010-08-14 00:48:55 UTC --- Positioning such icons (so that they work in all popular skins, of course, as users naturally expect) has so far been a very common, time-consuming (and rather silly) job of local administrators – see the list of interwiki links in [[Template:Top icon]]. Quite a lot of them, especially on smaller wikis, don't work correctly (or not at all). The implementations are very different. Most wikis use position:absolute, but the French, German and Chinese Wikipedias use float:right together with a little script that moves the icons just before #firstHeading (see [[fr:MediaWiki:Common.js]], [[de:MediaWiki:Vector.js]] and [[zh:MediaWiki:Common.js]]). While I would prefer having them just after #firstHeading semantic-wise, putting them before #firstHeading and floating them right (like editsection links) solves all the positioning problems in a simple, easily-maintainable way. See [[de:Wikipedia:Bewertungsbausteine]] using Vector for how it looks. Ah, and there are also the coordinates that, for whatever reason, like to be positioned near the title in many wikis. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

The if-a-system-message-exists-with-that-name-use-that implementation used in
Sidebar is horrible; definitely not a good idea to extend its use any further.
If people want to add a translatable message, they should use {{int:...}}.
I'd rather see this implemented either as full image syntax, or as full
wikitext. Supporting only 16px icons with no click-through doesn't actually
solve the original problem, which was how to position the FlaggedRevs widget,
as well as being useless for most of the things wikis use the icons for. On
the other hand, I *do* like the backend implementation via ParserOutput.

Fair enough.

solve the original problem, which was how to position the FlaggedRevs widget,
as well as being useless for most of the things wikis use the icons for.
I thought about that. I just didn't get to it. Opening up more of the image
syntax (including linking) is a good idea IMO. However, I'm a bit leery of
opening up all wikitext. This pfunc is designed for putting little clickable
things in the upper right corner of articles, and I'm afraid what opening up
the syntax might encourage.

At least I did something right :)

I think the main step is storing processed HTML in the ParserOutput array; that way extensions can add whatever they like to it (plus it's a bit wierd that what comes out of the 'parser' is not actually *parsed* :D).

Many Icons and even messages use their own div, span, small or whatever whith individual ids oder classes, which are needed for the stylesheets. For an example look at [[:de:template:Shortcut]]. Links, and imagemaps or pictures-in-links, are a must. Otherwise this very useful extensions imho wouldn't be used.

Partial implementation
I've implemented the Parser/OutputPage/SkinTemplate portions of this code.
Format is like this:
{{#pageicon:File1.ext|Alt text}}
Or like this:
{{#pageicon:File2.ext|Message-key-for-some-alt-text}}
You can use it multiple times in a page to allow for multiple icons like FA,
page protection, etc. Still needs some loving to put it somewhere acceptable in
the UI with the right styling though.
