[09:26:49] <cloudcell>	 Hello, how can I disable the forward slash character? I have the following config: $wgLegalTitleChars = " %!\"$'()*\\-.\\/0-9:;=?@A-Z\\\\^_`a-z~\\x80-\\xFF+";
[09:27:48] <cloudcell>	 If I remove the "\\/", then the wiki breaks :(
[10:58:23] <Vulpix>	 Special pages use forward slashes, I don't think you can remove those
[11:13:26] <cloudcell>	 thanks Vulpix 
[15:59:06] <Krinkle>	 cloudcell: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Subpages and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgNamespacesWithSubpages#Enabling-for-a-namespace may be of use
[15:59:21] <Krinkle>	 if you want to make it so that MediaWiki does not create "parent page" links if the title contains a slash
[16:00:06] <Krinkle>	 you can disable tht feauture in some of the namespaces
[16:00:21] <Krinkle>	 it is already off by default for the main article namespace though
[22:22:11] <adam_>	 Hey all.  I had some problems with my upgrade to 1.34.  Are there any scripts to just validate the DB schema and make sure it's now correct?
[22:48:05] <AntiComposite>	 adam_, there isn't a generalized one for MediaWiki as far as I'm aware. 
[22:48:59] <AntiComposite>	 the Wikimedia DBAs do have a few tools (see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T104459) for it
[22:49:44] <AntiComposite>	 you can also just compare maintenance/tables-generated.sql to the output of SHOW CREATE or DESCRIBE
[22:50:22] <AntiComposite>	 (extensions will have a similar file usually at the root of the extension repo)
[23:19:41] <adam_>	 Another related question, is there are way to force "recent changes" into the realm of old changes so I can see if that's working correctly or causing errors?
[23:20:34] <Reedy>	 You mean rebuild/regenerate it?
[23:24:39] <adam_>	 There's a table called "recent changes" where changes sit for a while before, through some process, they're seemingly integrated into revisions.  
[23:24:48] <adam_>	 Is that about right?
[23:25:27] <Reedy>	 no?
[23:25:42] <Reedy>	 the recentchanges table exists for performance reasons
[23:26:42] <Platonides>	 the data is already saved into the revision table
[23:26:59] <Platonides>	 recentchanges keep a copy of the last X (ie. recent) change
[23:27:38] <Platonides>	 you could truncate recentchanges and everything should still work fine
[23:27:48] <Platonides>	 (other than Special:Recentchanges :P)
[23:34:59] <tgr>	 Now that we have abstract schemas I'm sure Doctrine can be coaxed into validating the DB table definitions. Won't help with older MediaWiki versions though.
[23:36:27] <tgr>	 (Why do you upgrade to 1.34? Seems like not a good use of time - 1.35 still has LTS support but 1.34 is long EOL.)
