TrustedMath with mimetex

Hello Bryan, thanks for your TrustedMath extension. I am running a small wiki on a ftp-access-only server and a local copy on Windows laptop for testing and off-line access. Is it ok for you when I use your extension code as a (cited) base for mimetex usage? And post the code at mw:LaTeX_on_a_shared_host? Forentw 00:28, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi,

You are of course allowed to use my extensions as basis for anything else.

Special Form

Hi Bryan, I saw your comment on Extension:SpecialForm. Do you know how to fix this? The author's last edit was in 2008. I'm familiar with programming and could follow directions if given.

mwclient accessing page history for dynamic pages

hello bryan i am trying to use mwclient to download full article history for some pages but i can't get mwclient to get the page_title dynamically site = mwclient.site('en.wikipedia.org') page = page.site['string') // i am trying to get something equivalent to page.site('%s') % (variable) or page.site(variable) i am also unsure about how to download the full history, for i am only able to retrieve the revisions using page.revisions() is that possible?

page.site[variable] ?

-- Bryan (talk|commons)20:47, 29 June 2011
 

since i have a list of pages to look up (which i obtained from a query), i was actually hoping to get the following working str = cursor.fetchall(query) page = site.Pages[str]

173.32.166.18800:39, 30 June 2011

correction to above: cursor.fetchall(query) for p in str: site.pages[p]

173.32.166.18800:43, 30 June 2011

The return value of cursor.fetchall() is a tuple, so you should use p[0].

in other words, I wanted to know if it is possible to obtain the equivalent of a special export of the text and history of page. page.revisions() gives me the history & I was needing to get the text as well

Also I was wondering if anyone could help me find a way to obtain the 'currentstatus' of articles (currenstatus could be FA, GA, GAN etc.), the currentstatus info seems to be accessible only through the text table

obtaining currentstatus of articles

Edited by 3 users.
Last edit: 09:07, 13 July 2011

is there a way to programmatically get the currentstatus of article(s) as to whether it is a good article, featured article etc. or if it belongs to a class = stub or other?

Mediawiki session idle time, automatic logout when navigating to other page

Bryan, I'm having the same problem; setting $wgCookieExpiration=2592000 as recommended, which is 30 days, didn't help either even it looks like there is an impact on sessions duration time, which is a bit longer now. I thought sessions are automatically stored in the cache; or how can you prevent sessions from being stored? Do you think this would solve the problem? -- Danke!

SocialProfile and its upload special pages

Hi Bryan,

since you rewrote the upload system for 1.16, could you take a look at bugzilla:22598 when you have some time? SocialProfile has some special pages, namely Special:UploadAvatar, Special:GiftManagerLogo and Special:SystemGiftManagerLogo, which are currently broken on 1.16 due to the upload system rewrite. It'd be nice to get them fixed, but I'm afraid that it's beyond my skills. Your help is greatly appreciated! --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 15:35, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

Hi Bryan, in response to your question here, I created the image using GIMP to modify another public domain image. Specifically, Image:Public domain.png was created from. Nathan Larson 15:35, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
