Re: [Wikitech-l] Dynamic search results as category pages
Hoi, Did you consider the use of Wikidata in stead of SMW? It should not only indicate all the articles that have the appropriate statements but also the articles written in other languages.

We would need good error handling in that situation including the ordering (will be supported by the new search backend) Cool. I didnt realize search would support this. That's a pretty big deal since people expect there categorirs alphabetized. Another cool project would be to expand intersection/Dyanamic Page List (Wikimedia) to be able to use search as a different backend (however, that extension would need quite a bit of refactoring to get there) -bawolff ___ 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 ___ 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

My dream is that categories will to a very large extend go away then and be replaced with better Wikidata-based tools. I'd _really_ like us not to introduce more incentives to use categories like this one. Also it'd be quite a source for confusion to have both.

[Wikitech-l] help activists use our tech: Allied Media Conference
http://alliedmedia.org/news/2014/01/13/propose-session-amc2014 The Allied Media Conference https://amc.alliedmedia.org/ is a collaborative laboratory of media-based organizing strategies for transforming our world, held every Summer in Detroit. I'd love for us to propose some sessions to help people learn about and use Magnus's query tools, set up Wiki Loves Foo campaigns, and despam and rev up their MediaWiki installations with multimedia. The deadline is March 1, 2014. AMC2014 will be June 19-22, 2014 in Detroit, Michigan, USA.

Re: [Wikitech-l] Request Queue for Gerrit/Git
Thanks for thinking about this, TyA!

(I believe some projects require a which model of review do you want? answer.) TyA, would you be interested in turning this into a Flow project?

I would recommend you talk to Chad (^d/^demon), It would probably be nice if this could interface with our Git/Gerrit setup so they can be created directly from within the interface. As for the subpage idea, I don't think that would really be needed, It's one of the areas where we could just store information directly within the database without using the wikipage model for storage. You would probably need more than two special pages to cover a few things - Request Overview page (Table Format/Options to filter based on certain features) - Request Creation page - Request Management page (Edit/Update requests/Action the requests etc) ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
