Hi,
I'm Edward Chernenko, russian Uncyclopedia sysop, and I request an unblock. I was banned here more than two years ago, and the issue that led to it is no longer relevant. 217.15.199.238 07:07, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
Based on an IRC discussion with MaxSem, I'm declining to unblock you. I'm not convinced that your issues are resolved (and I've been told that you're banned on the Russian Wikipedia). Sorry.
wy you blog me i just start try to start a page you are partner of the new world order?????
Hello. This site is reserved only for pages related to the MediaWiki software itself. If you would like to create your own wiki, see Manual:Installation guide.
I'm sorry, but I just deleted your userpage too. Please use one of the wiki hosting services I pointed out above if you wish to have your own wiki.
You can edit the signature of the comment to reflect that.
I can't verify that the first one is yours and not another anonymous user's.
One of them just made it through and didn't trigger filter 19. Not sure if it can be amended or needs to be. Also a note that the filter was gratefully stolen via en wp for Commons, Meta and en wb :) Cheers --Herbythyme (talk) 14:05, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
The filter is definitely not 100%, and I keep modifying it as needed.
How it sets the mail to MediaWiki in LocalSettings.php? For example my mail kolega2357@gmail.com. --Kolega2357 (talk) 02:06, 25 December 2012 (UTC)
I don't understand your question.
I'm working on a form application that I plan to use as a basis for the contact form extension I'm working on. (the login would be removed, as MediaWiki would provide the user accounts)
There's a problem that I get when I try to run the script for creating the database tables.
This is the page that has the script: ($dbprefix is just for this application, I'll change it to the one MediaWiki uses when I make the extension. I believe I may have entered that right)
<?php
// Get user account information from installation form
$new_admin_username = trim($_REQUEST['new_admin_username']);
$new_admin_password = trim($_REQUEST['new_admin_password']);
// Create the user table
$create_user_table = "
mysql> CREATE TABLE /*$dbprefix*/users (
-> user_id int AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
-> username varchar(30) NOT NULL,
-> password varchar(30) NOT NULL
-> )
";
mysql_query($create_user_table)
or die(mysql_error());
// Create table for storing messages
$create_message_table = "
mysql> CREATE TABLE /*$dbprefix*/messages (
-> message_id int AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
-> sender_name varchar(50) NOT NULL,
-> sender_email varchar(50) NOT NULL,
-> sender_message varchar(2000) NOT NULL
-> )
";
mysql_query($create_message_table)
or die(mysql_error());
// Create user account
$new_admin_create_account = "
mysql> INSERT INTO /*$dbprefix*/users (username, password)
VALUES ('{mysql_real_escape_string($new_admin_username)}',
'{mysql_real_escape_string($new_admin_password)}');
";
mysql_query($new_admin_create_account)
or die(mysql_error());
?>
Here's the error I get:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'mysql> CREATE TABLE /**/users ( -> user_id int AUTO_INCREMENT ' at line 1
Hi, if you grant me permissions to delete spam / pointless posts in LQT comments I will help you cleaning them up. I just saw two more landing at Talk:MediaWiki.
I'm not a bureaucrat, so you'll have to ask at Project:Requests for admin rights.
Check out Special:Contributions/184.91.22.177 - should we block or just warn?
I'd say at least warn, or block if you want. Either way works for me, unless the IP makes multiple personal attacks which would earn a block.
just to notify you i was merely using the page to create entries for the sole purpose of completing coursework for units that needed to be finished i did not need you to delete that page for me to have to rewrite all the information that was contained there it was only temporary and i would of removed the information after the units where completed perhaps next time you would wish to notify me of guidlines to creating entries before you deleted them
I can e-mail you a copy, but were you intending this for Wikipedia?
Unfortunately yes this site is for documentation of the MediaWiki software only.
no this was not intended for wikipedia or any site at all i was merely using mediawiki to essentially create my own wiki as my unit was to design and edit a wiki that i had created and once that was completed i was merly planning to remove the entries and not use mediawiki again and no a copy will not be required i have rewritten the information
This is a common error, although the edit box does have a notice saying that this site is only for MediaWiki documentation.
It's easy to create your own wiki with sites like Wikkii or Wikia.
right i was not aware of that when i published the entry where would be a suitable location to create the entries i have mentioned
I apologize if my action seemed too hasty.
See my previous comment for two sites I recommend. They both take very little time to setup.
no not at all as i have checked the edit box you mentioned and it appears it was my fault for publishing the entries in the incorrect location i am very new to wiki creation and merly came upon this website from google so i apologize for any errors i may have caused and will look up thoes sites you mentioned thanks and have a pleasant day
I am very serious: I was furious when I saw that deletion. This is everything wrong with Wikipedia culture. How can it possibly ever be a good idea to delete a page that exists only to validate a user's existence and contribution? It is almost incidental that Dan is an employee of WMF and on my team -- no matter what he should have been welcomed into the community as a potential contributor and showered with encouragement. If he was a nobody and saw that response, I would not blame him for leaving your a profanity-laden comment and simply never coming back to the community. Is that what we want?
It's local policy that userpages should be in project scope, if you want to change that please file an RfC.
I would not have deleted had I verified him as a WMF employee or if it have (WMF). It said nothing more than his name, which looks no different from a test page that's routinely deleted. I could've just as easily used "no meaningful content" - I don't work for the foundation and wouldn't have known he was with you.
Once again I apologize, though you should note that this policy is purely local to this wiki.
Thank you Jasper for the welcome message on my talk page. And thank you dsc for sticking up for me and other initially clueless users out there. I'm totally new to the world of wiki and I'm looking forward to learning more about the community. If I might suggest, the policy might be a little smoother if it had two steps:
- Post the same welcome message you left on my talk page, with a warning added that the page might be deleted if it's left blank for too long.
- If no action is taken to change the page within a couple of weeks or some reasonable period of time, then maybe clean up the page.
I used to use {{delete}}, but when I did another sysop told me to not wait. I'm going to have to have a talk with that sysop.
On this note, I didn't have the time to leave {{scope}} for the user, which I usually do.
However, I do want to say that in the cases I've seen, a user with a userpage not related at all to MediaWiki is very likely here to do something off-topic. I never mean to bite new users and I want more people to contribute to the software. The local deletion log contains many such cases.
Could you please point me to the policy that says we should delete people's userpages if those userpages do not explicitly mention their connection to Wikimedia or MediaWiki? I'd like to suggest that we change that policy so that we *ask* people what their connection is first, rather than deleting straightaway.
OK, I see that there's an implication there that people's userpages should explicitly mention their connection to MW or WM. But I'm specifically looking for the policy stating that we should delete first and ask questions later.
On that, I mistook another sysop's directions to not wait. SVG was that sysop and clarified this to me (and revdeleted Dsc's edit summary).
Usually that page's policy is grounds for speedy deletion, and there's nothing written down about the use of {{delete}}; {{speedy}} has been used in the past for such userpages too.
Nor is Dsc's comment supported by any existing policy on this wiki.
How come an IP can create/edit a page that I cannot...! This is a comment bot offering which I can't delete and there is a lot of junk (from IPs) which I can't edit here. Looking at the history of the page IPs seem to be able to edit it freely. Puzzled - cheers --Herbythyme (talk) 12:08, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
This is strange, and unfortunately global sysops cannot edit this namespace directly. However, anyone can edit it using the visual editor, but you have to use the Vector skin. Currently the only way to block creation of a page is to block the user in question.
OK - appreciated - cheers --Herbythyme (talk) 17:31, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your swift and speedily response. The citation issued was a public notice concerning the article page content. It by no means attempted to discredit the ability of the author(s). The extension 'SecurePoll' is not documented according to MediaWiki's standards of publication for extensions. No end user material has been posted concerning usability and other site related functioning.
If you are using this site as a storage and other means of content management not suggested by MediaWiki, then perhaps you should consider removing the extension from circulation and storing it in a user page format. This would more peacefully resolve issues and maintain the site's open source licensing provisions for public circulation.
Please contact me to resolve any other issues concerning the citation. A full report will be filed with site administration as of the date of this notice.
Thank you again for your prompt response.
No. If the Wikimedia Foundation can use it properly it is not broken, and I'll warn you that if you keep wrongly posting an extension to be "broken", your account may get blocked. Lack of documentation is not a reason to call it "incompatible" - we don't have such standards anyway.
It smells of en:WP:NLT, no less.
I should also add that if you want to say something about the extension's usability (it already says it's incomplete) you should use a proper message, not a template that says something completely different.
Hello, i will add 2 fields to the User Account. The example "CustomUserCreateForm" I can not quite understand. Can you add an example for MediaWiki, where the table "user" expanded with the fields "user_street" and "user_city" ?
At this point you're better off asking real developers about this.
Will I be able to publish from it? I don't think they have a direct way of connecting, it goes from your machine to the virtual box... Thanks!
It does have bridged networking, if that's what you're talking about.
Ok, I'm not sure if you're the right person to ask but I haven't been able to setup httpd.conf on Apache in Linux, what can I do about that?
I don't answer such questions. If that's an error in PHP installation it might have something to do with file permissions if it's on Linux. On Windows it's negligible.
Hi,
can you give me a hint how I can create a new project at gerrit for to provide code for the Extension:MathSearch.
Thx.
I think you'd start with developer access.
thanks for the reply, so now I have to wait for the request http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git/New_repositories/Requests do you think I request is processed in one week? otherwise I'd delete my extension page again
It'll be processed sooner than that, I think.
Hi Jasper, something went wrong here. I just saw that you did some moving which I apparently did not recognise until now. However, you deleted the wrong page since this was the one containing the version history. It should be restored and merged into the existing archive. Thank you and cheers
Fixed.
Hello. I saw that you mentioned to Frigotoni that the tagging of certain extensions with the {{Extension code in wiki}} was incorrect. Can you please confirm for me that the Extension:ParserFunctions extension is reviewed by MediaWiki developers (my security group wants to know). Thank you. Esjs (talk) 16:59, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
Like I said, it is reviewed by the developers.
Edit of mine appears stuck as it is still pending review. I don't know why this is happening.
Done.
You've been found out yet again to be doing sockpuppetry. I'm glad you want to help but you first need to stop your sockpuppetry.
Yeah, unfortunately I get it only now (even if the website given by Helder didnt' work in that moment).
Glad to know.
Jasper, what do you think of this page? Should it be deleted again? I'm not so sure...
Propose it for deletion whenever unsure like here.
How I do global blocking with CentralAuth? I assume the local RevokePermissions user group I created won't work, since it's for a different global login system. Also, how do I make sure that the spammer and troll accounts won't have access to all wikis once I create the global login?
You lock their accounts. To prevent more creation of bad accounts use Extension:GlobalBlocking and Extension:CheckUser to root out the IPs and block them.
I assume that means the only way to block them is after I create the global login? I guess I can just restrict editing until I have that task done.
(btw, if you have an instance of CentralAuth, link me a wiki where you're using them)
It's after you create a global login. There are scripts, however, that can allow mass cross-wiki blocking.
