FWIW I have also seen many cases of userspace drafts being indexed. Perhaps something to do with the fact that they are always subpages? On Mon, Jul 6, 2015 at 10:35 AM Jon Robson wrote: > Looks like a bug > > Looking closely this meta tag is present in user pages: > > > but not present in that

Thanks for working on this, Paula. I suggest coordinating the work plan on Phabricator. Cc'ing Chris Steipp so that he's aware of this good project. Pine On Jul 6, 2015 10:13 AM, "Paula" wrote: > Also, I'd recommend, rather than making a brand new extension, just add >> Latch support into OATHA

Re: [Wikitech-l] [ Writing a MediaWiki extension for deployment ]

Thank you Alex, I see that there is a beta version since 2012 with Google Authenticator. So does this mean that there is no chance my implementation with Latch will also be available for MediaWiki users? I will be working on this project anyway, because I already signed for it with a profesor at

Re: [Wikitech-l] [ Writing a MediaWiki extension for deployment ]
