[00:11:49] <.labster> Or make an extension that makes it easy [00:14:01] a:thonkspeen: [00:14:11] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1208851591940153344 I tried, but I can't understand what I'm doing wrong [00:16:49] If only it were that easy [00:17:21] Actually I wonder, what goes into making an Extension? Like how do they work [00:20:55] PHP [00:20:55] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Developing_extensions [00:22:35] I see [00:23:15] Well, I suppose learning a new language couldn't hurt...? [00:27:35] That's what I tell myself and yet [00:27:43] I am monolingual still [00:27:56] :pythonamongus: [00:29:24] I picked up JS and Python, pretty comfortable with both - JS for wiki stuff and canvas-based visualizations, Python for web scraping [00:31:51] I wanna learn Lua and PHP (in a MediaWiki context) because it's becoming noticeably inconvenient to not know how the stuff I have to deal with works [00:34:14] My first forte into python and coding was discord bots lol [00:34:23] and I still work on some of those as pet projects [00:34:33] have also made some scripts in py for mediaiwki [00:34:38] JS I know a little bit [00:35:34] That's fun [00:36:58] never been great at code abstraction or, well not making garbage lol. so im using funi discord bot rewrite to learn [00:38:18] [1/6] And dang does ```py [00:38:19] [2/6] session = Session() [00:38:19] [3/6] account = Account(name=name, owner_id=interaction.user.id) [00:38:19] [4/6] session.add(account) [00:38:20] [5/6] session.commit()``` [00:38:20] [6/6] feel so much better [01:21:22] 🛌 💤 [02:05:50] Would it be alright to create other SRE tasks for a wiki that has an open database rename task? Should I instead wait for the resolution of the database rename task? [02:08:11] that's fine [02:55:58] Will WikiTide wikis be lost or no [02:58:22] No. [03:20:20] Ok good 👍 [03:40:47] Sure don’t want to loose my largest Wiki other there [03:47:17] <.labster> If WikiTide wikis are lost, please look inside your couch cushions and in your purse to see if you can find it. [10:13:03] [1/2] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Steward_requests#Honglan233@gengbaikewiki [10:13:04] [2/2] I have a request that has not been processed for three days on the steward request , can you handle it as soon as possible? Thank you [10:20:46] interwiki rights? [10:20:55] that's not established yet [11:14:43] <.hecko> would i be allowed to add my own matomo script? specifically to check which pages are the most visited [12:14:04] No that wouldn't really work but you have a good point, I'll create a task to look into whether we can support adding that to MatomoAnalytics [12:14:17] if you want for the time being I can give you a list of most visited pages since mid January [12:14:30] <.hecko> ooh yeah that'd be helpful if possible [12:15:39] <.hecko> `sonaponawiki` [12:15:52] <.hecko> though i thought the omission was intentional, per https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/407537962553966603/1058933194617008179 [12:16:37] Oh, I wasn't aware of that. let me check [12:19:16] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1209111960722079764/image.png?ex=65e5bc43&is=65d34743&hm=cef92529808f7fb7548d3dec49bb2dbb50108c9486ae8e829d29001b28c2305b& [12:19:32] that's for today [12:20:06] <.hecko> 🙏 [12:20:12] [1/2] this is from 16 Jan until now [12:20:13] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/407537962553966603/1209112198610165790/image.png?ex=65e5bc7c&is=65d3477c&hm=67dcc5ec0ed6aa0a5d61c7622dc94b776e26ddb171ed8ca9bbe4d4c2908db4c0& [12:24:58] <.hecko> would it be possible to get more results? or is that overreaching [15:05:20] Hi, can someone please check my support question - it is under “Feedback on Wiki Request Description” [15:22:15] ^^https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/1208987024846098432 [17:56:16] how do I change the logo on a wiki? [17:56:56] there's a tutorial at https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/ManageWiki [17:57:12] on the "How do I change my logo/favicon section" [17:57:36] thank you! [18:01:34] sorry, but where is Special:ManageWiki/settings [18:01:40] I cant find it anywhere [18:02:56] [1/2] it's the title of the page you would add after `.../wiki/` in URL [18:02:56] [2/2] but it's also in admin sidebar [18:03:04] It’s a page, you can get to it with search or the URL [18:03:11] "Manage this wiki's additional settings" [18:03:26] [[Special:ManageWiki/settings]] on your wiki is also a valid route [18:03:26] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:ManageWiki/settings [18:03:27]

[18:03:32] Changing meta to your wikis name [18:03:41] Ok, thanks! [18:19:38] i don’t see copy image location [18:20:09] click on open in original size link or something like that [18:20:15] the guide is a bit outdated [18:20:34] after opening (raw) image in new tab - copy its URL [18:21:09] Ok thanks [18:24:13] So i just wait for it to upload? it says that this process may take a while [18:24:47] wdym [18:24:59] you uploaded the file? [18:25:58] yeah [18:27:14] what if the file is too big [18:28:16] how big? where it should be used? [18:28:44] also you saved the settings? [18:28:48] whats the height and width on the file? and is it definitely a PNG? I'd be surprised if it was too big for a logo [18:39:20] It uploaded but the logo doesnt fit the box it is too big [18:39:46] the size must be 135x135 pixels [18:40:04] How do i adjust that though [18:41:16] The size [18:41:29] go online, type image resizer, boom [18:41:31] png right? [18:42:14] oh ok ill try that [18:43:00] smth like this https://www.iloveimg.com/resize-image/resize-png maybe? [18:44:01] Paint.NET is a free program you can install on your pc, it's like simplified Photoshop [18:44:44] oooh col [18:45:24] You get it at getpaint.net [18:45:58] Even though the tool you want is called paint.net, the actual website at paint.net is entirely unrelated. [18:47:14] ok thank you all so much! [21:41:41] How accurate Is Matomo? It says I've had 159 visits from Germany, but I'm assuming it might be mistaking me as being from Germany which I'm not. [21:48:44] It's as accurate as the data [21:49:16] If the data for your IP is garbage, it'll output garbage [21:53:04] Understood, so I'm guessing its just the IP data being garbage. [21:56:58] I will also preface it by saying its not just me being negative, but based on some of the data I get from google and page clicks (which aren't a lot), the numbers from Nigeria and Sri Lanka are more believeable just based off some of the pages that the wiki has. [22:28:36] Im allowed to use images from Wikimedia Commons, correct? [22:35:22] absolutely [23:11:18] You can just use the same file name. It will directly link to commons.wikimedia.org [23:20:30] What are the differences between Wikimedia Commons and Miraheze Commons? [23:21:32] I'm guessing Miraheze is Miraheze only, and Wikimedia is any Wikimedia platform, like WikiTide, MyWikis, etc. [23:27:34] Correct [23:27:35] About 10^10 thousand images [23:33:41] [1/2] But the main difference is... All images on Commons.wikimedia are licenced for commercial use. [23:33:42] [2/2] I believe that commons.miraheze doesn't have that restriction. So Non-Commercial images are allowed for upload as well [23:35:06] And on your own wiki, you can choose any licence you want, as long as they abide national laws for copyright, or respect the copyrights that already exist on the image you upload [23:37:22] To me, the big benefit of Wikimedia Commons is all images are licensed. By simply linking to them, you don't need to worry about copyright or attribution, since it's all on the commons site. It's a very clean way to use images in your wiki. [23:41:59] [1/4] Correct. [23:42:00] [2/4] If you upload to your own wiki, you need the specific license templates too. [23:42:00] [3/4] I did that on my own wiki, as I know the licence templates well enough. But if you have no clue, you better stay with commons.wikimedia. [23:42:00] [4/4] If you upload there, there are always people who have a look and detirmine if the licece is correct, if an image is allowed to be uploaded.
