User talk:SortaSean~mediawikiwiki

Hi, is this the correct place to contact SortaSean for help with a Wiki Extension he authored? The extension is the Infobox Data Capture and I was hoping to get help as to why its not returning any value at all when trying to delete an article.

Thank you for your time, --SupaBad 16:54, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Problem with InfoBoxData Capture
SupaBad, Could you please give me details about the problem? --131.111.45.114 18:20, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Problem with InfoBoxData Capture
This is what I'm getting when trying to delete:

Internal error Detected bug in an extension! Hook InfoboxDataCapture::delete failed to return a value; should return true to continue hook processing or false to abort. Backtrace:
 * 1) 0 /var/www/w/includes/Article.php(2171): wfRunHooks('ArticleDeleteCo...', Array)
 * 2) 1 /var/www/w/includes/Article.php(1983): Article->doDelete('content was: '{...')
 * 3) 2 /var/www/w/includes/Wiki.php(404): Article->delete
 * 4) 3 /var/www/w/includes/Wiki.php(48): MediaWiki->performAction(Object(OutputPage), Object(Article), Object(Title), Object(User), Object(WebRequest))
 * 5) 4 /var/www/w/index.php(90): MediaWiki->initialize(Object(Title), Object(OutputPage), Object(User), Object(WebRequest))
 * 6) 5 {main}

EDIT: I'm using version 1.12.0 · 2008-03-20 of the mediawiki software. I notice that error when trying to edit/delete a page.

Error with infobox
I'm using MySQL version 5.0 and I'm getting this error:
 * 1) 1064 - 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 '.`_infoboxdata` ( `ib_from` int(8) unsigned NOT NULL def' at line 1

I have no knowledge of SQL language. So I don't know what to change in here.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called SortaSean. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name SortaSean~mediawikiwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 03:56, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
