Any user names refer to users of that site, who are not necessarily users of MediaWiki.org (even if they share the same username).

width="60" does not work for me, I get

Reading table information for completion of table and column names

(66 positions) on one line.--Patrick 11:56, 7 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Do this need the Example section?[edit]

There's no reason to

  1. mysql -u <wikiuser> -p
  2. then enter your password, then,
  3. USE <wikidb>

when you can specify the DB on the mysql command line. So I changed the example to

  1. mysql -u wikiuser -p wikidb
  2. then enter your password

Does the Example section help at all? It doesn't tell you much. -- SPage (WMF) (talk) 22:46, 1 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
