[11:33:36] Hi folks - my very first international Wikimedia event here [11:33:37] very excited to wikihack stuff together [11:37:31] I probably could have asked for a refund but I didn't want to bother anybody [11:37:31] [11:37:33] Also I hope there was more room for those who really needed more [20:11:26] I just had an idea, that it would be really cool to have a mediawiki-themed CTF at the hackathon. Probably way too late to organize something though [21:36:31] bawolff: that could be really cool. even if you don't have time/energy to setup a full CTF event it would be neat to see you do some knowledge sharing on red teaming MediaWiki. [21:52:46] It'd also kind of be interesting to do it from a non-security perspective, sort of like GCI style challenges. Also give something for people who aren't sure what they want to do, something to do [22:00:25] * bawolff has kind of been getting into doing CTFs last little while, and they are really fun [22:17:15] *nod* If it wasn't security stuff, I think CTF could also be a fun way to lead folks into new to them parts of MediaWiki. Like you could start at an article and then find clues that take you into templates, lua, gadgets, user scripts, logs, etc. [22:18:49] yeah. I think back in GCI someone had a sort of step by step challenge tutorial for lua modules [22:20:01] I imagine being new to wikimedia tech stuff at the hackathon would be pretty tough, not a lot that you can immediately dig into [22:24:19] Premising that sticker deserves - somewhere - a gear, a server+unicorn, or whatever else hacky symbol :D (re @wmtelegram_bot: Coming soon: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikimedia_Hackathon_2023_sticker.svg) [22:38:54] @bozzy: Sometimes I worry that I put unicorns on too many things for other people's taste. ;) There will certainly be unicorn stickers that you can add to that one at the event. [22:43:06] Yes, RexxS had a Lua module step by step challenge in GCI. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/query/aGlVjMQmLyNf/#R for the tasks. [23:06:42] There can never be too many unicorns
