[10:50:32] Hi guy's I don't know if I'm at the good place for asking some review about the implementation of the Extension WikidataPageBanner [10:50:53] Dontasktoask.com :) (re @benjaminbrochard: Hi guy's I don't know if I'm at the good place for asking some review about the implementation of the Extension WikidataPageBann...) [10:53:51] when I change my localsettings.php to add another source for the image it doesn't load at all :/ : https://tools-static.wmflabs.org/bridgebot/974bcdad/file_42177.jpg [10:53:52] https://tools-static.wmflabs.org/bridgebot/08a951eb/file_42178.jpg [13:18:10] https://tools-static.wmflabs.org/bridgebot/8e545c40/file_42199.jpg [13:23:37] what does dev console say? [13:33:36] https://tools-static.wmflabs.org/bridgebot/cf552a81/file_42208.jpg [13:35:57] here's my test website : https://polkadot.preprodbrochardbenjamin.fr/index.php?title=Satoshi_Nakamoto [13:47:07] I found an really old extension that allow me to code the banners straight on the localsettings here : https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:WikiBanner [13:48:02] But it's not anymore supported, the problem I have displaying the other image is on this Extension which is up to date https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:WikidataPageBanner (re @benjaminbrochard: I found an really old extension that allow me to code the banners straight on the localsettings here : https://www.mediawiki.org...) [14:15:29] HAve you some news about mediawiki 1.39 version ? [14:17:05] so then figure out what the URL is that's 404? maybe via network tab (re @benjaminbrochard: ) [14:17:58] what's the purpose of this extension? [14:19:05] integrating banners to try making the website bitcoinwiki.org at the break-even point financially [14:19:14] oh it's a thing on Wikidata [14:19:59] advertisements? that doesn't seem like the right extension to use. (re @benjaminbrochard: integrating banners to try making the website bitcoinwiki.org at the break-even point financially) [14:20:38] you want more customization of what exactly a user sees per impression and you want to track impressions [14:20:43] I didn't find other things we do'nt want any kind of ads rulling on the website Ledger is about security so it's fine [14:22:16] Maybe later on yes but at the moment I need to convince 1 partner like Ledger to funds us a bit in order to renovate the project bitcoinwiki.org the Mediawiki on it is on 1.27.2 so everything is quite outdated (re @jeremy_b: you want more customization of what exactly a user sees per impression and you want to track impressions) [14:22:41] I'm not a dev so it's really hard for me to deal with it, thanks for your support :) [14:25:22] forgot about bridge when editing. s/Wikidata/Wikivoyage/ (re @jeremy_b: oh it's a thing on Wikivoyage) [14:26:52] https://tools-static.wmflabs.org/bridgebot/7d4cef07/file_42213.jpg [14:27:09] Yeap it seems way to complicated for a newbie like me ^^ (re @jeremy_b: forgot about bridge when editing. s/Wikidata/Wikivoyage/) [14:28:17] so do you see something wrong with that URL? (re @benjaminbrochard: ) [14:28:44] forget the extension. just go load any thumb. what is the URL for a thumb on your wiki? [14:29:19] I don't know why it's addind in the url " /640w, " so it's destroy the access to the img (re @jeremy_b: so do you see something wrong with that URL?) [14:29:32] (when you edit a message in Telegram, the message in full is re-sent over the bridge… so it's best to keep edits in bridged channels to a minimum if possible) (re @jeremy_b: forgot about bridge when editing. s/Wikidata/Wikivoyage/) [14:31:19] the whole domain/scheme is repeated again. it's not just the part you quoted. (re @benjaminbrochard: I don't know why it's addind in the url " /640w, " so it's destroy the access to the img) [14:31:31] this (re @jeremy_b: forget the extension. just go load any thumb. what is the URL for a thumb on your wiki?) [14:32:37] I didn't see the edit automatically sent to https://wm-bot.wmcloud.org/browser/index.php?start=10%2F25%2F2022&end=10%2F25%2F2022&display=%23wikimedia-hackathon (re @jhsoby: (when you edit a message in Telegram, the message in full is re-sent over the bridge… so it's best to keep edits in bridged chan...) [14:33:11] but at any rate I agree better not to have to make an edit [14:33:12] maybe it was changed? it used to be like that, at least, but i can see why it would be annoying [14:35:49] I desactivated the banner extension which use wikidata and keep the banenr code straight to the LocalSettings ATM I will work on it latter on [14:52:36] you only have 2 local uploads, seems no thumbs there, maybe not configured. "no higher resolution is available" [15:01:16] Are we generally cool with this hackathon channel turning into yet another MediaWiki technical support forum? I'm not personally super excited about helping figure out how to put banner ads on a wiki promoting cryptocurrency. [16:05:56] I also wasn't super excited about the crypto. but I didn't know exactly how to deal with that. I didn't mention the first extension that came to mind. [17:15:05] I perfectly understand if we put ads it would be for hardware wallet which is one of the way to gett rid of scammy things about crypto but It's a promising tech and it can bring nice interactions on site (re @jeremy_b: I also wasn't super excited about the crypto. but I didn't know exactly how to deal with that. I didn't mention the first extens...) [17:21:41] @benjaminbrochard: As a community the Wikimedia movement has decided to avoid cryptocurrency as a funding source largely based on ecological impact. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/Stop_accepting_cryptocurrency_donations [17:36:17] IIUC the #mediawiki channel isn't bridged to Telegram, right? So the only channel in this platform that approaches that is indeed this one, at least according to https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Telegram#MediaWiki_and_Technical. I would be in favor of bridging #mediawiki and leaving this one exclusively for the hackathons (re @wmtelegram_bot: Are we generally cool with thi [17:36:18] s hackathon channel turning into yet another MediaWiki technical support forum? I'm not pe...) [17:37:01] (I'm mentioning Telegram because, although I lament that it isn't an open platform, it is admittedly more user-friendly than IRC) [17:38:43] Btw, is there any reason the #mediawiki channel isn't included in the #wikitech space on Matrix.org? https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Matrix.org#English [17:47:03] Making a Telegram version of #mediawiki would mostly require finding a group of people willing to "own" the Telegram channel and it's moderation. [17:59:22] There is a MediaWiki specific group on Telegram, but it is in Russian (re @waldyrious: IIUC the #mediawiki channel isn't bridged to Telegram, right?

(Not that I'm suggesting imposing additional responsibilities on other people — just that it probably wouldn't be much different than what it already is) (re @wmtelegram_bot: Making a Telegram version of #mediawiki would mostly require finding a group of pe [18:11:24] ople willing to "own" the Telegram cha...) [18:11:39] Yeah, I noticed that too (re @Thecladis: There is a MediaWiki specific group on Telegram, but it is in Russian) [18:15:14] We can potentially limit questions to only Wikimedia or free knowledge related projects (re @waldyrious: Considering that this channel is pretty much that already, wouldn't the same set of people be a reasonable choice?
