Re: [Wikitech-l] Wikipedia Dump
Dear all, I have used the dump from http://download.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20101011/enwiki-20101011-stub-meta-history.xml.gz, imported into sql database. However, I could see any data on 2001 to 2004, anyone know what's wrong? thanks, Zeyi ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] OT: Sunday in San Francisco
Thanks for the input everyone! Roan said: Have you seen http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Visiting_San_Francisco ? No, I didn't see that, thanks! If you like doing hikes, you can do what I did last Saturday and walk the Land's End Trail. That sounds like a really good idea. I could use a bit of walking and fresh air after all the conferencing. I hope the weather isn't too wet :) 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. Yea, I have fond memories of Golden Gate Park, from when I was in SF in, oh my... 1994?... Andrew said: I'm in town until next Thursday, so we can hang out if you like. Sunday is my 20th birthday, and, if you feel up to it, you'd be welcome to join the celebrations. That would be Sunday the 30th, right? Damn, I'll just be flying in on that day, I probably can't handle a party after a transatlantic flight... also, I have to get to Santa Clara, not SF - I'll be stuck there until Friday, I'm attending the Strata conference. I'd love to hang out, but I doubt that I'll have an opportunity to come to SF before the weekend. If you want to come down to SC, by all means, do :) Neil said: FYI, Feb 6th is Super Bowl Sunday. A sporting event whose celebration tends to eclipse the actual sports part. Depending on your inclination you could either embrace the AMERICA FUCK YEAH aspect of the day, or avoid it entirely. uhuh... I'm not one for national chest bumping, nor am I much into sports. Though sporting events *can* be fun with the right crowd :) We'll see. Thanks for the warning though, I guess I'll stay away from bars that night... Anyway, see you soon! -- daniel PS: if anyone as more infos/ideas - keep them coming! ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
[Wikitech-l] Checkered background on file description pages
Wikimedia Commons and the English Wikipedia have customized their site-wide CSS to put a checkered pattern on the transparent part of files on the file description page. Because I view this code as almost necessary on any wiki that supports uploading PNGs, I filed a bug about including it in the default site-wide CSS: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26470 There's definitely missing functionality here. On wikis that don't use a checkered background, a lot of users end up downloading the images to their computer to look at them in order to determine if a background is white or transparent. That sucks. There was previous discussion about this, but more discussion is needed, apparently. Is site-wide CSS the best way to do this? Would a toggle on the file description page make more sense? User preference? MZMcBride ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
[Wikitech-l] Re sourceLoader + Windows + PHP bug 47689
In JavaScriptDistiller, inside of the createParser() function, we have: $parser-add( '/\\/\\*(.|[\\r\\n])*?\\*\\//' ); It took me hours to track down that this was causing Apache 2.1.11 to crash on nearly any page view on my test wiki. This happened when a large JS bundle is loaded, such as: load.php?debug=falselang=enmodules=jquery.checkboxShiftClick|jquery.client|jquery.cookie|jquery.makeCollapsible|jquery.placeholder|mediawiki.action.watch.ajax|mediawiki.language|mediawiki.legacy.ajax|mediawiki.legacy.diff|mediawiki.legacy.mwsuggest|mediawiki.legacy.wikibits|mediawiki.utilskin=vectorversion=20110129T005517Z I made a simple php file to reproduce this. It crashes when viewed over apache but not CLI. It appears to be http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47689 (which uses a similar regex). Is something worth adding a note somewhere about or tweaking some code? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/ResourceLoader-%2B-Windows-%2B-PHP-bug-47689-tp30792236p30792236.html Sent from the Wikipedia Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
