[Wikitech-l] Missing $wgUseVFormUserLogin ??
Cheers wikitech-l, Whilst upgrading to 1.22.5 from 1.21.8 I came across $wgUseVFormUserLogin [1]. Form what I can tell this global directive is completely missing from core. The docs on mw.org say it's in 1.22+, but I can't find any record of this setting. I also searched the mailing list archives (both mediawiki-l and wikitech-l) and found nothing. I would like to disable the new login form (for legacy reasons, not because I don't think it's sexy.) Is there some other way? --Daniel [1.] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgUseVFormUserLogin ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

[Wikitech-l] New wikibugs bot
Hello all, As the original wikibugs bot did not come back online today, the tasks of wikibugs have now fully been taken over by a python re-implementation of the same bot, running on Tool Labs. A few improvements over the old bot: - running on Tool Labs instead of the WMF mail server, so community-maintainable, - messages to multiple channels based on bug properties (e.g. product and component) - several minor improvements: -> shows changes instead of the new situation -> adds first line-or-so of a comment, -> shows product and component for each message, -> better URLs (with anchor to the specific comment), -> real names are now *always* used (they are retrieved from BZ if the mail does not list them). Source code is available at https://github.com/valhallasw/pywikibugs Comments, suggestions for improvements and pull requests are, as always, very welcome.

[Wikitech-l] GerritCommandLine update
I've recently updated the GerritCommandLine tool [1] so that you can use it to manage incoming reviews. gerrit.py --reviewee jdlrobson --gtscore -1 Will show all patches across all projects that have you down as a reviewee and are currently not negatively reviewed. There are various other helpful filters. e.g. only show patches that have been open over X days, run it on a given repository via project. If you are having trouble not knowing what to review or what needs review give it a go! Thoughts and patches welcomed!
