I assume you're logged in over HTTPS, in which case, they should show up if you also use HTTPS for the API: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=tokens&rawcontinue=1&type=watch|patrol|rollback&format=xml Cheers, grunny ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] MediaWiki Security and Maintenance Releases: 1.19.19, 1.22.11 and 1.23.4
It's because there's a leading space before the tab in front of the comment here: https://git.wikimedia.org/blob/mediawiki%2Fcore.git/REL1_19/includes%2FXmlTypeCheck.php#L22 That leading space exists in the patch for 1.19.19, so applies fine when you're applying it to a fresh copy of the 1.19.18 branch. But, as it was introduced in the 1.19.10 release ( https://git.wikimedia.org/commitdiff/mediawiki%2Fcore.git/926b9e6) and the patch for the 1.19.10 release didn't include the space, if you used the patches for all releases since, it won't be there and the new 1.19.19 patch will fail to apply the first changes to that file without fixing that space first.

Re: [Wikitech-l] Minding pull-requests on GitHub
In this case, the developer was replied to by Krenair in a second PR they opened for the same issue, so at least they weren't ignored, just looks like the first PR wasn't closed along with the second one: https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-core/pull/20 The code for Yuvi's SuchABot is here: https://git.wikimedia.org/tree/labs%2Ftools%2FSuchABot.git Cheers, grunny ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] mediawiki-announce no longer forwarded to mediawiki-l?

(Or maybe everyone always > sent everyting to both?) Generally all release announcements (and pre-release announcements) were always sent to mediawiki-announce, mediawiki-l, and wikitech-l. So, I don't think mediawiki-announce forwarded to mediawiki-l. Also, can someone with admin rights on MW.org update the news and current versions templates for the new releases: * https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:MediaWiki_News * https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Current_versions Cheers, grunny ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] Problem: extension's "preference tab(s)" : and not correctly rendered
> what is missing in the code ? If you want the fieldset to appear, I believe you just need to change all the 'section' => 'openid', in the preference arrays to 'section' => 'openid/openid', and then it will use the prefs-openid message, which you have already defined, as the section text in the fieldset legend.
