How to find all article that a given user has started?

Text search with wiki text highligted elements in a word in an article fails in general?

 * MediaWiki version: 1.13.2
 * PHP version: 5.2.6 (apache)
 * MySQL version:  5.0.67-community
 * URL: not free available at thomas-prietz.de because of copy right issues (temporarilly)

If you have parts of words e.g. higlighted oder bold in an article, like:

Customer Relationship Management: Wikipedia CRM

the search will never find the complete word 'relationship' again in this article.

So, a higlighting or other marking method for elements in a word in mediawiki makes the word to a "stealth word" for the wiki search engine.

In my opinion, the search should generally ignore the wikitext syntax.

Any hints like: "Try the single words" or "use google..." are not helpfull, especially for german language with partly very long words.

I found no help at mediawiki.org with "full text search". but some comments can be found with Google. Is there an extension that can cope with this problem or does exist a setting of a search variable? Again, in my opinion it is a bug, not a feature

Transcluding subpages
I'm trying to use subpages to store individual chapters in a book named Baz, and sub-sub pages to store individual sections of each chapter. The chapters transclude the sections using relative includes like rather than the full path  and the top level page transcludes all of the chapters as. If I view the chapter page Baz/Chapter Bar, then the transclusions of the sections look fine, but if I look at the top level page Baz, it tells me that Baz/Section Foo does not exist, which of course it doesn't.

Is it possible to have the second transclusion take into account the path to the page that generated the transclusion (Baz/Chapter Bar), rather than using the relative path of the page being viewed (Baz)?

 * Following up my own question, Help:Template says that

A page A can transclude a subpage A/B using or, with more control over the name of the page to be transcluded, this name can be constructed from.
 * So if page A transcludes subpage A/B, how would page A/B then transclude A/B/C without using the full path? Or, when transcluded from A,  is there a variable like  that page A/B can use to refer to itself rather than A?  -24.126.107.168 15:40, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Error when embedding two special pages

Different pages, different skins

I am trying to include pages with a dramatically different theme into my main wiki. (My main wiki has a fantasy skin and the pages I want to include are futuristic.) I'd like a different skin specific to those pages and which will load only for those pages. I don't want to simply install a new wiki for the futuristic-themed pages because there will only be a few of them.

Is there a way to force a group of pages in our wiki to have a particular skin?

 * MediaWiki version: 1.12.0
 * PHP version: 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.1 (apache2handler)
 * MySQL version: 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5
 * URL: not publicly available (is on company intranet)

I hope this is the appropriate place to post this question. (if not, my apologies!)

I'd like to find out if there is a way to force a group of pages in our wiki to have a particular skin.

The reason I am keen to do this is that we have a wiki which works great, but I would like to store help pages for an application we have in the wiki and link to those pages direct from the app. Although we wouldn't have concerns with people seeing the non-article stuff when viewing the pages from the rest of the wiki, for it to be streamlined when viewed from the application I thought it would be ideal if I gave it a simplified skin which I would design.

I have already found out that URLs can have the useskin= added (e.g. as is done in the Preview Skin page within the User Preferences pages), but following the links will revert you to your normal chosen skin.

Is there perhaps some way to adjust the skin, so that all the links contain useskin=? (I think this might have issues, since you appear to need the full pagename for useskin to work (e.g. ..../w/index.php?title=blah....&useskin=cologneblue as opposed to the short URLs).

If this isn't a smart way to go, I could consider different approaches (I run the box the wiki is on and could create a distinct wiki perhaps, although there might be disadvantages to this, such as needing to combine the user tables and maybe this would still pick up the user's preferred skin unless I re-coded things).

Any sensible suggestions gratefully received! Let me know if there's any more info you might need or if I need to clarify any points about my objective.

Many thanks, Neil —NStoker 12:41, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Slowness

 * MediaWiki version: 1.13.2
 * PHP version: 5.2.6 (cgi-fcgi)
 * MySQL version: 5.1.29-rc-community
 * URL: intranet

We have installed MediaWiki on a Windows 2003 Server with IIS. Every time we access WikiMedia on it (locally or via another network computer) it takes a long time before it shows up. You can instantly see the title bar at the top showing the correct name, but it looks like it's waiting for something to continue. After about 10 seconds it shows the page. When you then go to another page it works perfect.

So, only when first accessing it will it take about 10 seconds to show the page.

Hopefully there's a solution for this.

 * So what's the problem? —Emufarmers(T 20:26, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

How much memory do you think a PHP script should use? It is recommended in this site that you should set the maximum PHP memory to 32MB not 80MB. Should I expect to increase the memory base on the number of images I have?


 * Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia Foundation wikis all have a memory limit of 80MB. One article on this site says to raise the memory limit: it gives 32MB as an example, not a rule. —Emufarmers(T 08:17, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

The PHP script just exceeded 80MB.. I would consider this an issue with the script.

>> Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 83886080 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 86 bytes) in /usr/share/mediawiki/includes/filerepo/LocalFile.php on line 249


 * I did a little research on the issue. Because of the nature of the content I have on my wiki there are one or two images that are duplicated many times with different names. This is not a problem for me as the images are very small. What I discovered is that the image view page searches and lists all of these duplicates. The resulting page is very large causing the memory issue. Can the scripts be modified to only list the first 100 or so?

Statistics
With the code : Special:Statistics I can see automaticly how many pages there are on my wiki. Is there also a code to see how many pages has been vitites totally on my wiki ? Thanks...

 * And 10:53, 14 January 2009 (UTC) You should have "my contributions" in the "personal tools" toolbox (or top right, depending on your skin) - this links to Special:Contributions/User.Name and you can just change the user name accordingly. However, this shows all pages that the user has edited as well as created, so it's not exactly what you need, but it's the closest I know of.
 * The Special:NewPages function allows you to specify a user name, seeing all new pages that user has created recently. I think it only goes back to whatever you have the $rcMaxAge (IIRC) variable set to. --Greg (68.49.33.97 20:13, 17 January 2009 (UTC))

 * Three suggestions (dunno what exactly you want to achieve):
 * For a "normal toc" add the TOC magic word to the page in question (only works well if you already have at least one heading on the page); but a toc is automatically displayed if there are at least four headings (like ==A==</tt> to ==Z==</tt>), see en.wikipedia help).
 * For an "A-Z index" include Special:Allpages by adding  to a page – this will be displayed differently, depending on the total amount of articles in your wiki (either really all pages, or subsection links).
 * A neat alternative could be Extension:CategoryTree (if you have categorized all articles and have a main category).

Thanks so much until now but this is not exactly what I need: I want to have a A-Z index on my main page. It's a special content in our wiki and if there is no table of content directly on the first page, people don't know which for which articles they should search. – Like in a book: index at the beginning. I don't want the users seachr for "all pages"... http://www.boehmkobayashi.de/wiki/index.php/B%C3%B6hm_Handelszentrum I will search through the "how to edit". which is a super-useful page I didn't find before – just starting.

Email notification on deleted watched pages says "page created"

 * URL: not a public wiki

I have configured a wiki working just fine, with email notifications activated - working great! However, when watching a page being deleted (and not being the user deleting the page, which would not generate a notification) the page is reported as being "created". That is a little misleading as least :)

Users set to be notified OnAllChanges gets the same message when a page is deleted: "created". I've been looking into the code and I guess the problem may be that "created" is selected when $this->oldid is unset, which probably also is true when pages are being deleted.

Thanks for a great project!

Hi, I would like to ask that you remove the page

encyclopediadramatica.com/Krystole

from your documents. These are all lies taken from some over dramatic loser who has no better then to belate others on their life. The pics are illigally optained from a private collection and are not for public viewing. It is sick what you let people blog about on your pages. These lies should not be aloud to be published due to the slander effect it could have on her. So i ask again for you to please remove this page from your archives. Thanks

Sorry, NOT RESOLVED: How do I get a main table of content for my wiki??
MediaWiki version: 1.13.2 PHP version: 5.1.6 MySQL version: 5.0.45 URL: local

Hello, I really need to get a table of content (A-Z index) on my main page or the portal page. I search the whole day but I didn't find it; hop it's quite easy... [mailto:info@ks68.de] --IP 12 January 2009


 * Three suggestions (dunno what exactly you want to achieve):
 * For a "normal toc" add the TOC magic word to the page in question (only works well if you already have at least one heading on the page); but a toc is automatically displayed if there are at least four headings (like ==A==</tt> to ==Z==</tt>), see en.wikipedia help).
 * For an "A-Z index" include Special:Allpages by adding  to a page – this will be displayed differently, depending on the total amount of articles in your wiki (either really all pages, or subsection links).
 * A neat alternative could be Extension:CategoryTree (if you have categorized all articles and have a main category).

'''Thanks so much until now but this is not exactly what I need: I want to have a A-Z index on my main page. It's a special content in our wiki and if there is no table of content directly on the first page, people don't know which for which articles they should search. – Like in a book: index at the beginning. I don't want the users seachr for "all pages"...''' http://www.boehmkobayashi.de/wiki/index.php/B%C3%B6hm_Handelszentrum

x64 support

 * MediaWiki version: mediawiki-1.13.2
 * PHP version:5.2.6-2ubuntu4
 * MySQL version: MySQL 5.0.67-0ubuntu6

does the engine work on x64 system? I have the following message on my x64 ubuntu instead the main and other pages

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 20971520 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 24 bytes) in /home/deda/Docs/Sites/wiki/includes/SpecialPage.php on line 161

On my x32 system MediaWiki works properly.

The parameter memory_limit is same in both systems (it's equal. 16M). I tryed to enlarge it in 64x to 25M but the bug is still recreated.
