User talk:Jack Phoenix/archive 1

Hi You keep deleting images that I need in my collaboration with my master exam. Why?

spam
Sincere apologies for the recent HD-D5 spam, Sayuri. I should keep my Firefox tabs separated while i'm building my 1st Wiki and taking advice from yours.

thanks
Hello Sayuri, welcome on MediaWiki.org, and thanks for your help so far :-) --- :Bdk: 14:01, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Jobs/speedy deletion
Hi,

You have marked this page - Jobs for fast deletion (reason: not relevant). I have created this page because of a request on mediawiki-l mailing list - some ppl were looking for a place to add job offers or look for a MW-related job - similar to http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Codev/ConsultantsForHire, but for MW. I've just started this page - if you need please update it the way you wish or discuss @ its talk page.

Thx in advance, Regards --Aretai 13:16, 6 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Okay, I've removed the speedy tag now. I'm sorry about that. Maybe other users or admins can comment on it. :) -- Sayuri 13:19, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Why don't you put up a site on this subject? and link to it from your user page? Jean-Lou Dupont 14:57, 6 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I have added a request for comment here. --HappyDog 01:33, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Wow, thank you very much Rob! :) -- Sayuri 16:32, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Licensing of meta images
Hi Sayuri, I noticed that several of the images you have moved here from meta have the editing history on meta, but not the copyright status or a license tag. If you know the copyright status, could you please add the tags? Thanks. --Brian 04:59, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks for clarfying the situation on that. Looking through the images, I noticed a few of them are screenshots of Mediawiki only ( without wikipedia or other logos).Since Mediawiki software is under the GPL license, I would think that screenshots that just show the software ( such as Image:Sample Dynamic Article List 2.png and Image:Sample Dynamic Article List 1.png would be covered by that license as well (though I`m not a lawyer). Let me know if I`m missing something obvious here? By the way, congrats on your appointment to the cabel:).--Brian 08:57, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree with you, they're probably covered by the GPL license, but then again, I'm not a lawyer. And thanks for the thankings, though if there's a cabal, then it's either pretty quiet...or I'm not a member or it. Heh. ;) -- Sayuri 12:10, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, I added it to those two images, though I forgot to sign in first:) I wonder if Image:Texbox1.png would fall under the same category, or do you know if extensions are licensed diffrently than the main software itself.Image:Texbox2.pngis ismlar, though the Firefox logo visable might be a problablem. The others look  more complicated, though, since they show other logos or content besifes the software. Unfournantly, I`m not very familier with copyrights to know what to do with them. You mentioned fair use earlier- good idea, but  Special:upload states that "All files uploaded to MediaWiki.org must be available under a free license (no "fair use" or "noncommercial")." I think that is  probably a matter for a wider community discussion before doing it.--Brian 05:03, 29 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I guess it'd be wise to bug the original author at Meta, try to leave them a message or an e-mail. That's the only way to be 100% sure about their license. -- Sayuri 11:07, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi,

You deleted this page (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Charles_Denham) (reason: not relevant). I have created this page because of a request people familiar with Dr. Lucian Leape and his work on the Medical System and his work in Medical Error.

I believe Dr. Denham's profile is just as relevant, if not more so than Dr. Leape (as he was recently nominated for the "100 Most Powerful People in Healthcare" (https://vovici.com/wsb.dll/s/4509g297d3)

for the topic of MEDICAL ERROR (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_error). Dr. Leape is also a member of the NQF Safe Practice Advisory Board of which Dr. Denham is the CHAIRMAN.

We have also received inquires from associates of Mark McClellan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_McClellan), who also works with the NQF Safe Practice Advisory Board.

Dr. Denham works for a NON-PROFIT organization, that specifically deals with Medical Error in the Medical System. This is not Spam, but useful information for these topics and I plan to link them to this page (and that is why I am creating it). Please do not delete the page.

Thanks,

Dane Rougeau TMIT - Texas Institue of Technology (non profit organization)


 * It is irrelevant to MediaWiki.org. Please read about this site. We're not Wikipedia. -- Sayuri 19:07, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

HaverWiki
I was under the implication that MediaWiki certainly allowed people to acknowledge the use of their software, or am I incorrect? If so, I'd like a written page stating the rules+regulations including the rule that I've so apparently broken. Until than, I see no reason not the put the article back up. Feel free to comment back.


 * Please sign your posts with the four tildes. Anyway, you can list your site on Sites using MediaWiki but there's no need to create articles about them, please read about this site. MediaWiki.org is a place to find MediaWiki-related documentation...not to advertise your site, even though it'd be using MediaWiki. -- Sayuri 17:24, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Extension:Mails
Thank you for the corrections --Hsilamot 23:35, 8 July 2007 (UTC)


 * No problem, thank you for the thanks. :-) -- Sayuri 11:59, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Rar!
Don't know if I know you (or if you know me), but I love you. =D Anyway, I'm only here to clog up the recent changes with a bot to fix something for Jack Phoenix. =P Guesty-Persony-Thingy 09:37, 11 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Of course I know you, because I requested it, heh. ;-) -- Sayuri 09:41, 11 July 2007 (UTC)


 * OH BLOODY SMEG YOU JERK!!! ;D Anyway, working now... sorta. I hope. =P Guesty-Persony-Thingy 09:44, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Categorization
I have already requested that any further discussion about categorization continues at Category talk:Extensions I check this page regularly but there has been no discussion for some time now about this issue. I always will read and consider all criticism and respond as required I will never rubbish or ignore your points. so please discuss it there. Thankyou. Bouncingmolar 05:53, 13 July 2007 (UTC)


 * I have already commented over there. Besides, it was clear for everyone that forking Template:Extension is not allowed. MediaWiki.org is already a mess, no need to mess it up even more. -- Sayuri 10:29, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I realise you have already commented there previously, but that is where I will continue any ongoing discussion about this topic on that page. so if you would like an answer see Category talk:Extensions that way all of the discussion is directed to the same place. Thankyou for your patience. Bouncingmolar 02:43, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Importing
Please maintain a modicum of forethought when importing content from Meta; there's no need to import pages such as MediaWiki 2.0, which were marked as not in use, with no plans to implement as described. Such pages are better off being deleted from Meta than moved here. robchurch | talk 14:15, 15 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Ok, sure. I just don't know how willing they're in Meta to delete possibly useful (or then not) pages... -- Sayuri 14:20, 15 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Actually, according to logs, I wasn't the one importing those pages (though having version info here is not a bad idea in general). -- Sayuri 13:32, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for the welcome and rar (/me looks around for Sparlka) ..eheh..-- Cometstyles 10:49, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

creating new categories for extensions
I can understand that "Extension by user xyz" is deprecated. But how about adding other new categories, e.g. in the "type" domain? Algorithmix 14:51, 22 July 2007 (UTC)


 * There's some more discussion about this in Category talk:Extensions if you're interested. :) -- Sayuri 16:06, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Kiitos!
Kiitoksia paljon formatista miun php koodi - Zigwhentheyzag 16:11, 22 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Eipä mitään, suurkiitokset itsellesi - hyvin hyödyllistä koodia. :) -- Sayuri 16:52, 22 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Niin, toivottavasti on hyödyllinen ;) -- Zigwhentheyzag 14:30, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Sorry
I was going to cleanup after the vandal, and reverted a few of your reversions by mistake, sorry about it. Drini 18:58, 25 August 2007 (UTC)


 * No problem, sometimes stuff like that happens when two people are reverting vandalism. :) -- Sayuri 19:00, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Please comment
I'd be thankful if you would comment on the new upgrade of Whos_online extension. By the way, thank you for reverting my older change to the extension page. I was about to do it myself indeed. Huji 18:31, 1 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I'm no PHP coder, my code would most likely cause parse errors. ;-)


 * However, the code looks relatively sane and simple to me, though you may want to ask a dev's opinion on this :-) -- Sayuri 22:38, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Expandable navframe page
Hi. Please could you restore the page I made on expandable navframes? It is useful information, as the page about them on Wikipedia is a) focussed on using this on Wikipedia, b) on Wikipedia they are being phased out anyway so the page may eventually be removed c) it's something you can do with MediaWiki and users of MediaWiki should have access to this without having to search Wikipedia. Lastly, the page on Wikipedia is not very clear and you have to comb through Common.js and Common.css for the right bits (which I had to do and got it wrong several times). By all means put it in the manual: namespace -- I got the idea that Manual: was PD too because of the blue background.


 * Restored. I still don't think that's too useful, but in the end, it's just my humble opinion. -- Sayuri 12:33, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Image:ConfirmAccountsForm.png
The image is scaled well but is out of date. If you want to, can you maybe update it? Aaron 17:23, 7 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Sure thing, I've updated it now. -- Sayuri 17:55, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

LoginFailed. Wrong Password??
Hi sayuri, Can you help me with a problem related to login failure in a intranet wikipedia with bots? When i'm trying to login using the pywikipediabot module login.py in a intranet wikipedia, the response is Login Failed. Wrong Password??. Why does is happens considering that my username and password are correct and the user-config.py and the family.py files are good? Thank You. Mapelo 15:52, 9 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for your message. I'm afraid I cannot help you with this, considering I haven't used pywikipedia bot framework ever. You might want to ask Dantman if he can help you. All the best, -- Sayuri 15:59, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

LoginFailed. Wrong Password??
All right. Thanks a lot. Mapelo 16:24, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Extension:ChangeAuthor
Thanks for creating the extension page so quickly. I had intended to do it earlier today, but couldn't find time. --Catrope 16:20, 21 October 2007 (UTC)


 * No problem. :) -- Sayuri 17:32, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

 * nobody cares
 * Please read about this site and understand that this is a wiki only for MediaWiki -related documentation & extension docs. Not for random junk / crap.
 * Because I'm a rouge admin.


 * -- Sayuri 16:36, 25 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I love the summary created when you delete an image by the way -nobody cares, is that a global configuration I noticed another Sysop signing it aswell --Zven 22:31, 29 January 2008 (UTC)


 * I have a fastdelete button with that summary in my monobook.js. And deletion reasons in the normal delete screen are customizable through the MediaWiki: namespace. -- Sayuri 22:42, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the info --Zven 22:54, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

?> at the end of .php file
Hi,

You removed the "?>" at the end of my extension (Extension:Fail2banlog), I think it a good idea to keep it to clearly mark the end of the code.

Why do you remove it ? It's my first contribution to mediawiki, is it a standard or something ? I saw that other extensions have the "?>" so why not fail2banlog ?

Regards. --LaurentChouraki 16:50, 12 February 2008 (UTC)


 * The ending ?> tags were removed from MediaWiki's core files in 23531 and shortly afterwards from the extension files. This is a developer consensus not to have the ending ?> tags in there, as those can cause problems, e.g. if there's some whitespace after the ending tag or so. Those ending tags should be removed from all extensions; please do so if you come across those. Thanks! -- Sayuri 18:07, 12 February 2008 (UTC)


 * OK, but the problem was trailing space, not the closing tag... I think it's a bad choice but I will follow MediaWiki's way for my few lines of code ;-). --LaurentChouraki 20:17, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I would say it is a good choice, you cannot easily see trailing whitespace after the tag closure (unless you use an editor like vim) and if present it can screw up includes of extensions --Zven 21:34, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for tweaking my code on Extension:SubPageList3. I'm sorry I kept overwriting your changes - I hadn't realised anyone else had taken an interest in editing it! I've gone through the page history and adopted your changes into the final posted version as well as my local version. --McCormack 13:11, 19 February 2008 (UTC)


 * No problem, I'm glad I could be of assistance. :-) -- Sayuri 13:15, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

SiteNotice on Every Page
Hello, I have seen that the page Sitenotice MediaWiki:Sitenotice has been removed. I am currently trying to implement something similar in my wiki by having common content in all my pages. Can you give me some advice as to how I can do that. I think more like a single include file called in all the pages. Vijuscorner
 * Actually the old notices are in the history of MediaWiki:Sitenotice. This is a good way to broadcast a global message, giving the article some content displays the message, making the article blank or a single - suppresses it --Zven 01:10, 12 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Hmm, what exactly do you want? If you want a notice that displays on every page on the wiki, just edit MediaWiki:Sitenotice on your wiki. If you want to hide the sitenotice, see Extension:DismissableSiteNotice. If you are hosting a wiki family of some kind and want a global sitenotice for them, see Extension:CentralNotice. -- Sayuri 13:56, 12 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I was thinking more in the lines of having some content put in a file and calling that in certain pages.... not in all but most of the pages. This way I need not change something in every page but just in source file and that will be updated on all pages. This is slightly different for the site notice as u can see.Vijuscorner 9:35, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
