The current fix for this problem broke a lot of pages on Commons. Please reexamine this problem. I'm re-resolving this bug as fixed. This bug was about getting action=parse re-enabled on Wikimedia wikis. The bug summary and comment 0 both make this clear. It's quite possible that other issues have been exposed subsequent to this bug. In particular, there should probably be a bug about ImageAnnotator being turned into an extension, if one hasn't been filed already. But that doesn't change the resolution of this bug. If there are new issues, file separate bugs. This issue (i.e., action=parse being disabled on Wikimedia wikis), as far as I'm aware, is completely resolved. -- 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

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25238 --- Comment #36 from Tim Starling tstarl...@wikimedia.org 2010-09-28 02:14:58 UTC --- ImageAnnotator can be re-enabled for now. Further testing indicates that the byte hit ratio figure in squid includes error messages, and a lot of them were probably being sent at the time in question. The error counters (server.http.errors and client_http.errors) are apparently broken and never incremented. The issue occurred at peak time, disabling action=purge probably reduced the server load to slightly below peak, bringing demand back under capacity. There are several things we could have disabled which would have had the same effect. -- 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

I agree the Localized/Internationalized descriptions (in the language of the user) provided by Information, Book or Artwork templates will still be there, but descriptions linked to a specific locations in the image (localized?) are gone. Those descriptions were used to annotate a each face in a group image (replacing 5th head, with hat, in the 6th row kind of descriptions), each building in a panorama, a signature or other inscription in a painting. A lot of effort was put into annotating images to provide more information to the final user.

At fotopedia, we use action=parse in the following contexts: - server side for displayable text retrieval: /w/api.php?action=parseformat=jsonprop=textpage= These texts are cached on our side for 30 days. So it only happens when somebody tries to display an article page on fotopedia for the first time in a month. Before the API endpoint was unactivated yesterday, we were only requiring a dozen of pages a minute. Right now, this part of fotopedia works fine, as long as the users don't wander in unexplored pages. - client side for both article search and displayable text retrieval These queries are triggered when a user adds a wikipedia article to a fotopedia page. The typical scenario is a search, followed by a series of: /w/api.php?action=parseformat=xmlprop=textpage= We only have a handful of regular users of the client software, so I don't expect this to be a threat to wikipedia server stability either. On the other hand, the impact on their side is important for us business-wise. -- 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

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25238 --- Comment #19 from Tim Starling tstarl...@wikimedia.org 2010-09-22 08:01:01 UTC --- (In reply to comment #16) But most likely the issue is caused by some cache miss issue for the site wide enabled features like Image Annotator ? I think that ImageAnnotator is indeed the most likely culprit. As I said in comment #9, we're looking for squid cache hits, which most likely means requests with a maxage parameter. Between 14:20 and 14:29, we logged 71 requests with a maxage parameter in the 1/1000 sampled log. 47 were from ImageAnnotator, the other 24 were for [[MediaWiki:Sitenotice-translation]]. And since the sitenotice requests all went to the same URL, it's unlikely they'd hit the disk of the squids, which is what we saw. None of the logged requests came from a site other than commons. Between 13:00 and 14:00, we logged an average of 74 requests per second from ImageAnnotator. 14:00 to 15:00 saw a decline to 60 req/s, presumably because sq31-33 were toast for most of that period. I think the best thing to do for now is to disable ImageAnnotator pending a performance review. Since certain administrators on Commons like to revert me when I change things there, I will leave action=parse disabled on Commons until a regular Commons administrator removes it from [[MediaWiki:Common.js]]. -- 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're using action=parse on wikinews for the preview of a javascript tool that
helps users change a template. ( [[n:WN:ML]] ).

The results from the API are (supposed to be) cached in a local database on toolserver with a 12 hour expiry, to lighten the load on the API. The things that are parsed are: 1) Templates such as [[en:Template:B-Class]], to get the formatting that has been specified inside them. This formatting is used to make the toolserver program give similar output to on-wiki tables. It would be silly to manually keep the web tool code in sync with the templates. And the overall collection of class templates is not predefined and can grow at the whim of a wikiproject. 2) The page [[en:User:SelectionBot/HomePage]] is parsed to fill in the contents of the http://toolserver.org/~enwp10 . The goal of this was to prevent, as much as possible, hard-coding formatting into the web program that could be or should be updatable by people other than the tool's maintainer. If there is a caching failure in this tool, it will be somewhat apparent in the WMF server logs, because the requests would be coming from the toolserver's web server. My logs show 4367 invocations in the last 24 hours. -- 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

I use it in [[Wikipedia:RefToolbar 2.0]] to do previews of citation templates.
This is one of the most popular gadgets on the English Wikipedia, though I
don't know how much this feature is used and this feature is only available
with the new toolbar version, so not all users have access to it. Every parse
request is manually triggered by the user.
Example request:
action: parse
title: wgPageName
prop: text
format: json
text: {{cite

[Bug 25238] Investigate and re-enable action=parse API module on Wikimedia wikis
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25238 --- Comment #11 from Pol p...@cooliris.com 2010-09-22 03:58:21 UTC --- Our application is a free iPad application with more than 200,000 users. It's been the #1 free app during its launch for a week a couple months ago, and never left the top 10 in the Lifestyle category. As you can in its description, we're trying to create interesting alternative presentations of Wikipedia content to really make it look great on iPad: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id384224429?mt=8 Discover uses the parse action as a more efficient way to retrieve the contents of the pages from Wikipedia. It always uses the page argument, retrieving entire pages, which therefore should be in the cache (as indicated at the very end of the parsing result with the various timestamps). As far as I understanding, the application should be a good citizen toward the Wikipedia servers and it downloads less data this way. Please re-enable action=parse for entire pages as soon as possible, as Discover is effectively completely broken right now. For reference, here are all the exact parse API requests I could find in the source code: * action=parseprop=displaytitle%%7Ctext%%7Ccategories%%7Cexternallinkspage=%@redirectsformat=xml * action=parseprop=text%%7Cimagespage=%@redirectsformat=xml * action=parseprop=text%%7Cimagespage=%@redirectsformat=xml * action=parseprop=textpage=Wikipedia:Featured_articlesredirectsformat=xml * action=parseprop=imagespage=%@redirectsformat=xml * action=parseprop=linkspage=Wikipedia:Featured_picturesredirectsformat=xml * action=parseprop=textpage=Template:In_the_newsredirectsformat=xml -- 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

This tool is used by thousands of Wikimedians. Typical requests are action=parseprop=headhtml before the first preview and then just ordinary action=parseprop=text in GET with title=...text=... in POST for every preview. While previews aren't displayed by default, this feature is extensively used. -- 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

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25238 --- Comment #14 from Pol p...@cooliris.com 2010-09-22 04:36:33 UTC --- Note that other APIs don't return the same info as action=parse, so replacements is not easy. For instance, links in the page retrieved from action=parse contain an extra attribute (exists=) indicating if the link exists. The alternative action=queryprop=links doesn't provide this info. -- 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 site contains radio play lists and when you click on a music track it retrieves videos, images and information about each band. The information comes from our own D/B when we have it, but falls back on Wikipedia when we don't. -- 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

( but it uses page title parse ( which should use cache ) for good measure I have added in a maxage=3600 on page parse requests to ideally hit the squids instead of the apaches, but I don't think that it has anything to do with the load issues. But most likely the issue is caused by some cache miss issue for the site wide enabled features like Image Annotator ? -- 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
