[Wikitech-l] GSoC 2014 Proposal: One stop translation search
Hi, I'm Erick Guan, a 2nd student and wikipedian since 2008 who is interested in MediaWiki development. In general, the goal of this project would be: redesign Special:SearchTranslations page, bugfix and alternative backend based on ElasticSearch. This made the Extension:Translate more powerful and easy to use. And Wikimedia Language engineering team described one stop translation search in details in the GSoC feature idea page. Bugzilla, visual spec defines the exactly idea about what will it be and what we want to achieve. It's not hard to work on it and actually made this happen. Here is my proposal: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Fantasticfears/GSoC_2014_2#One_stop_translation_search -- Regards, Erick Guan/管啸 (fantasticfears) ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
[Wikitech-l] GSoC proposal: Wikimedia Identities Editor
Hi, I've publish a proposal[1] about Wikimedia Identities Editor. The mentors will be Alvaro del Castillo, Daniel Izquierdo. Mediawiki Community Metrics is a Wikimedia project which goal is to describe how the MediaWiki / Wikimedia tech community is doing. But it is lack of the management tools to allow the community member to manage their profile and update their info on the Web interface. We should also provide OAuth login as an option and provide locale settings. Please help me review the proposal. Feedback is welcome.

Re: [Wikitech-l] New collapsible elements behavior or more option for mw-collapsible
Navbox <https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Navbox> is a table. And the code search the first row's child for 'mw-collapsible-toogle'. Thus we need to customize the local Navbox module. The good news is that is easy. Thanks for your help. https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:HideH zhwiki is familiar with this kind of indicator which shows a "show/hide" text with a arrow. The HideH template itself works with HideF for hiding some content in it.

[Wikitech-l] New collapsible elements behavior or more option for mw-collapsible
Since MediaWiki 1.23/wmf3 has been deployed to all Wikimedia sites, the old script in zhwiki didn't work any more. The zhwiki's collapsible behavior makes the whole header bar clickable and shows a helpful text indicating the collapse state. Thus, the Navbox and many templates can be easily expand by click the hotspot(header bar) instead of finding the "show/hide" link to click. What do you think of making this behavior as default? And now, because we want to make use of upstream jQuery.makecollapsible but not break the local collapsible behavior, I think the best way to fix this is adding some configs for jQuery.makecollapsible. Last, I'd like to see Extension:Scribunto's global module.. Therefore we can unify some common templates globally for unified user experience. -- Regards, Erick Guan/管啸 (fantasticfears) ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] Access from China
I'm in Shanghai. I can access zhwiki on both mobile device and pc and I am not redirected to https by default. A user in Dalian reported on zhwiki he can access by https, which I think it's a just exception.
