A little tangential, and maybe it goes without saying, but I really like that MediaWiki API points to documentation in-band when fetched via browser (without the format option). For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=pageimages&piprop=thumbnail&pithumbsize=96&pilimit=5

Just a thought: as long as we primarily link to webchat.freenode.net from https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC/Channels the traffic in the channels should be suited after that tool rather than what some power user have available. *Med vänliga hälsningar,Jan Ainali* Verksamhetschef, Wikimedia Sver

I think the point is that it's unrealistic to expect people to handle this on the "client side" and they should "opt in" for those notifications/messages by joining that channel (i.e. separating events on the server side, so it applies to all clients). On Thu, Apr 30, 2015 at 4:03 PM, Bahodir Mans

I use LimeChat, but haven’t tried hard enough to filter out bots. I don’t mind creating a new channel and directing bots there. XChat advanced settings related to “Text Events”, which maybe what you want. Not sure about the backlog support though. > On Apr 30, 2015, at 3:36 PM, Joaquin Oltra He

Bryan that's exactly what I'd like. Direct the bots to other channels and join those if you want the notifications. I personally will because I find them very useful. Baha the reality is not that easy. I want backlog so I've moved to the irccloud chat, and there I can only ignore users. The proble

I personally detest them now I am working with mostly a remote team. They are useful occasionally but not missing messages from team members is far too important for me. I've not found a good way to filter these out (look at the pink lines that mean pings in my irc client - http://imgur.com/MsYk9O

Hi! I've been feeling that the signal to noise ratio on #wikimedia-mobile since the addition of wikibugs and our new apps engineers (more grrrit-wm spam) is turning to be 0 (that is, no signal because of too much noise). It is really difficult to talk about anything when somebody else is working
