Configuration for 2012 ArbCom election
The 2012 ArbCom election on enwiki, which runs on SecurePoll, has already been
delayed because we had difficulty getting hold of Tim Starling, who usually
manages that installation. Another day rolls by and we don't seem to be having
much luck emailing people. Is there any sysadmin who is happy running the
config import script?
The maintenance script is at /extensions/SecurePoll/cli/import.php and the
needed config file is attached. One thing that does need checking is that the
entity IDs don't overlap with previous ballots; I think it should be ok on the
assumption that no other SecurePoll ballots have been loaded since last year's
ArbCom election, which looks right. You might want to run:
SELECT MAX( `en_id` ) FROM `securepoll_entity`;
Which is the primary key for the table (and the table only has a few hundred
rows) so will be fine to run. I'd do it on the toolserver but my account has
expired.
TLDR: we need a sysadmin with shell who is happy to:
1) look at the attached config file to confirm that it's not going to
trojan the site (it's not, honest :D )
2) Run the SQL query above and confirm that the result is <= 258, if not
let me know and I'll update the config
3) run /extensions/SecurePoll/cli/import.php /path/to/config
This is time-critical in that the time when the election was supposed to start
(midnight this morning UTC) has already passed. The attached config produces
an election which opens at midnight tonight; if it's not processed by then, let
me know and I'll update it to start later.
