That's why I reported it, not only to show the world how dumb I am :) My eyes moved from Awesome, you are editing Wikipedia! to Can you briefly describe the changes you're making? completely missing it on the first scan. Worse, I also wondered for a few seconds where was the edit box. Haha, yep, that's obviously what's going to happen to current editors with any new interface as radical as this ;) Perhaps an image at the top, showing a sentence with a mouse cursor hovering above it, accompanied with click on a sentence to edit it would help?

[Wikitech-l] Wikipedias with old logo
There are still some Wikipedia projects with the old logo, for example http://rw.wikipedia.org . Can someone create a list of such projects? I could go manually over nearly 300 of them and check it, but there's probably an automatic way to it.

[Wikitech-l] OT: Sunday in San Francisco
Hi all! I'm coming to San Franscisco to spend a couple of days at the Wikimedia Office on Feb 7/8. But before that, I have a weekend to spend in SF... well, I might already have something for Saturday, but Sunday is still free. So... any recommendations what to do and see? where to hang out in the evening? I'd like to see a bit more than the office and the hotel, and I'm not so much for the touristy stuff... ideas? -- daniel ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

What is the appropriate component for this project. https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=MediaWiki%20extensions I cannot locate InlineEditor. Inline scripts if the correct component? Ah, looking forward to see what you've come up with! Like Roan and Chad said, the InlineEditor component is now in the list, so you can add bugs there. Hi Jan Few bugs and a enchantement are reported. We will continue with bit of boundary testing. Is it a good idea to keep a track of enhancements/bugsposted by others? I mean recording them in Bugzilla Thanks Janesh ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

Have you seen http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Visiting_San_Francisco ? If you like doing hikes, you can do what I did last Saturday and walk the Land's End Trail. It's about a 3km hike, which you can extend by going back on the El Camino Del Mar Trail via the Legion of Honor, and/or by visiting Sutro Heights Park, and/or by continuing into the Presidio toward the Golden Gate Bridge. If you're in the SoMa area (where the office is), take bus 38L to Geary 48th. The trail starts near the parking lot at Point Lobos Ave. Another fun thing to do is get lost in Golden Gate Park, which is a huge (roughly 7x1 km) park in the middle of the city. Lots of cool stuff there, and lots of bike rental places around the edge of the park.

In a very similar manner, I've had a trouble with local MediaWiki installation (old 1.14, haven't checked with newer ones), when I've created user accounts and sent these via the email, people were unable to login, because when you select a text line using a mouse, Thunderbird mail sometimes copies line feed character into clipboard, so it was pasted into the password field then and the password didn't match. Users were frustrated. I've explained them that line feed is being placed into the clipboard which is visible when you paste it into the text editor. I am unsure which browser they have been used, maybe some browsers strip 13 / 10 from text inputs, maybe don't. HTML5 specifies that they should, for passwords: User agents must not allow users to insert U+000A LINE FEED (LF) or U+000D CARRIAGE RETURN (CR) characters into the value. http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/states-of-the-type-attribute.html#password-state The value sanitization algorithm also makes sure this holds for default values and script-inserted values. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
