Hello Siebrand.
If you could do something to solve this bug, that would really be appreciated. I'm not sure it will take a lot of time to add some delay before a user got welcomed, but it will really save a lot of time of stewards that should everytime oversight things locally when an abusive username is created (and most of times we forget to do it and it stays on public lists).
I'm about to send the same message to Nad.
Thanks a lot.
There's no way to have a hook execute a while after it is triggered, so this cannot be done.
We must find an alternative to this, because it's a waste of time to be forced to give oneself oversight access on all projects where the user talk page has been created (vandals know it and target those wikis, so sometimes we have to change this bits on three different projects to oversight everything). We have a button to oversight things globally, but this does not suppress the user and user talk pages as well. By the way, do you think it will be possible to do this change on the CentralAuth extension ?
I think I will offer those communities a bot script compatible with the extension you wrote, ie using exactly the same MediaWiki messages, so it could be easily moveable. The only way to add a small delay before welcoming is to use a bot, if not doable by any extension.
To stop the extension, should I open a new thread on Bugzilla or simply edit a MediaWiki message ?
Thanks by advance.
hello Siedbrand, could you please validate my revision r87811 ? I think I refix it, Thanks a lot and have a nice day !
re-hello Siebrand, I uploaded a new extension this afternoon, but the bot ^demon tell me : "You should not be using $wgAjaxExportList anymore, that interface is deprecated and likely to disappear in the not-so-distant future. The appropriate way nowadays is to expose an API module to do the work you want. " in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/87537#c16620
Could you give me some example of code without using $wgAjaxExportList . What are the new methods used ?
Thanks for your help.
Hello Siedbrand, you commented yesterday the MediaWiki r87510 - Code Review. But I don't know how to answer to your comment, I am a new commiter.. Could you explain me ? You asked "Can you please clarify why you add new code to the 1.16 branch, instead of adding it to trunk, and then branching it? " I thought that I have no commit access to the trunk. Tim told me that I have access to the extensions and branches. Could I commit in trunk/extensions/ ? Thank you to give me some help. Have a nice day !
You *can* commit to trunk/extensions, but you cannot commit in other folders in trunk/ (for example phase3). New code should be added to trunk/... first, and only then be branched. If that does not happen, no history is retained for the files you have added.
I propose that you rename the extension in the 1_16 branch to an extension in trunk, and then branch it (in both 1_16 and 1_17 if you like). From then on, you should continue developing it in trunk, and backport (MFT - merge from trunk) whatever needs backporting. If you have a branch-specific fix, that should of course be applied to one or more branches only.
More clear?
Hi!
Could you rename my user accounts here, at translatewiki and at yiwiktionary (where you are bureaucrat), as requested on en.wikipedia? Thanks
You're a global user. Renaming would detach from the global user. Are you sure you want that done?
Yes. I'm trying to get a global account in the new name. (for more detail, see also my request on Meta).
Somebody's asking what the state of LiquidThreads' translation into Czech is. Do you happen to have any statistics handy?
100% per translatewiki.net stats.
