[00:00:05] bawolff - re: filing a bug in phabricator - you're assuming some things about my skill level [00:00:30] I mean, realistically, phabricator is still where ideas go to die :) [00:02:05] Dragonfly6-7: but if you want to, just go to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/43/ click login using "mediawiki" (even though it says mediawiki, your wikipedia account will work), then full out the form. If you fill it out wrong someone will probably fix it anyways, so don't stress if you are unsure of something [00:02:31] And then it goes in a giant list of feature requests, where someone may or may not see it [10:19:23] !bash I mean, realistically, phabricator is still where ideas go to die :) [10:19:24] Lucas_WMDE: Stored quip at https://bash.toolforge.org/quip/V_0uZI0BGiVuUzOdK6rV [10:19:33] I hope you don’t mind (log in and delete it if you do ^^) [19:00:28] Is there any documentation about why "noinclude" is the way for adding comments to MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition? [19:00:53] Does this simply work for all these special-syntax MediaWiki pages? [19:01:19] MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist uses "#" at the beginning of lines instead [19:02:08] I wonder what happened if "noinclude" was used at MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist instead. Or at MediaWiki:Sidebar [19:03:00] (forget about "why" first; I failed to find a documentation for "if", even) [19:03:18] No, it definitely does not work on all of them [19:03:27] Its mostly random based on who wrote the page [19:03:52] # is a traditional way to do comments in a lot of file formats [19:03:56] ah well. :D [19:06:09] It seems like gadgets-definition supports as well [19:07:14] I actually don't see any code supporting [19:07:16] ah, that's interesting. As far as I can see, the Gadgets extension doesn't contain "noinclude" in its code anywhere, so it doesn't check for this by itself – noinclude probably just works because the Gadgets extension does something that understands noincludes [19:07:19] ha^ [19:07:51] I also don't see any PPFrame stuff either, which would be the normal way works [19:08:27] It's used at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition [19:08:40] (which doesn't 100% necessarily mean that it has any effect by itself) [19:09:45] Yeah, i think that is just there and not doing anything [19:09:55] If noinclude doesn't have the expected effect there, the module transclusion at its top is a problem [19:10:04] gadgets extension looks for lines starting with * or lines that are == header ==, and ignores everything else [19:10:04] this would be important to know [19:10:37] bawolff: if you are sure about this, would you mind commenting at the bottom of the talk page of that page? [19:12:57] done [19:13:10] I don't think templates are rendered at all though, so its probably still safe [19:13:33] aah that's nice then [19:13:40] thank you very much :) [19:38:23] np
