Questions about MassMessage prior to full deploymentEdit

Hi. I have two possibly related questions:

When I go to testwiki:Special:MassMessage currently and try to enter text in the "Page containing list of pages to leave a message on" input, I don't see any autocomplete or suggestions. I thought this was already implemented?
Related to gerrit:91344, does the Git submodule that's deployed to Wikimedia wikis need to be updated?

Thanks for all your work on the extension. I think we're nearly there. :-) --MZMcBride (talk) 17:48, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

I'm guessing this is related to bugzilla:56070. Is there anything in your JavaScript error console?
Yes it would. I wasn't expecting on having it deployed until the next update went out though.

Aha, thanks for the pointer. Following bugzilla:56070#c16, input suggestions are working again. I'll leave it to you, Reedy, et al. to figure out when to update the submodule. --MZMcBride (talk) 21:01, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

RL2Edit

Hi :) I saw you'd been doing some work on RL2 and was wondering what your overall idea was for where it might end up (or to what extent you were considering taking it). I realise this is a bit of a vague question given the number of ideas and tickets bouncing around, but I've been looking for something to make installing scripts easier for users with little to no js experience and was hoping Gadgets (or rather a future version) might be what I'm looking for. onei 16:59, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

An important message about renaming usersEdit

Dear Legoktm,

I am cross-posting this message to many places to make sure everyone who is a Wikimedia Foundation project bureaucrat receives a copy. If you are a bureaucrat on more than one wiki, you will receive this message on each wiki where you are a bureaucrat.

As you may have seen, work to perform the Wikimedia cluster-wide single-user login finalisation (SUL finalisation) is taking place. This may potentially effect your work as a local bureaucrat, so please read this message carefully.

Why is this happening? As currently stated at the global rename policy, a global account is a name linked to a single user across all Wikimedia wikis, with local accounts unified into a global collection. Previously, the only way to rename a unified user was to individually rename every local account. This was an extremely difficult and time-consuming task, both for stewards and for the users who had to initiate discussions with local bureaucrats (who perform local renames to date) on every wiki with available bureaucrats. The process took a very long time, since it's difficult to coordinate crosswiki renames among the projects and bureaucrats involved in individual projects.

The SUL finalisation will be taking place in stages, and one of the first stages will be to turn off Special:RenameUser locally. This needs to be done as soon as possible, on advice and input from Stewards and engineers for the project, so that no more accounts that are unified globally are broken by a local rename to usurp the global account name. Once this is done, the process of global name unification can begin. The date that has been chosen to turn off local renaming and shift over to entirely global renaming is 15 September 2014, or three weeks time from now. In place of local renames is a new tool, hosted on Meta, that allows for global renames on all wikis where the name is not registered will be deployed.

Your help is greatly needed during this process and going forward in the future if, as a bureaucrat, renaming users is something that you do or have an interest in participating in. The Wikimedia Stewards have set up, and are in charge of, a new community usergroup on Meta in order to share knowledge and work together on renaming accounts globally, called Global renamers. Stewards are in the process of creating documentation to help global renamers to get used to and learn more about global accounts and tools and Meta in general as well as the application format. As transparency is a valuable thing in our movement, the Stewards would like to have at least a brief public application period. If you are an experienced renamer as a local bureaucrat, the process of becoming a part of this group could take as little as 24 hours to complete. You, as a bureaucrat, should be able to apply for the global renamer right on Meta by the requests for global permissions page on 1 September, a week from now.

In the meantime please update your local page where users request renames to reflect this move to global renaming, and if there is a rename request and the user has edited more than one wiki with the name, please send them to the request page for a global rename.

Stewards greatly appreciate the trust local communities have in you and want to make this transition as easy as possible so that the two groups can start working together to ensure everyone has a unique login identity across Wikimedia projects. Completing this project will allow for long-desired universal tools like a global watchlist, global notifications and many, many more features to make work easier.

If you have any questions, comments or concerns about the SUL finalisation, read over the Help:Unified login page on Meta and leave a note on the talk page there, or on the talk page for global renamers. You can also contact me on my talk page on meta if you would like. I'm working as a bridge between Wikimedia Foundation Engineering and Product Development, Wikimedia Stewards, and you to assure that SUL finalisation goes as smoothly as possible; this is a community-driven process and I encourage you to work with the Stewards for our communities.

Thank you for your time. -- Keegan (WMF) talk 18:24, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

Teahouse COPYINGEdit

Hi!

You suggested to add a COPYING file to the Teahouse extension repo. Unfortunately I'm not sure what information to add to it. Most COPYING files that I know contain a licence text. But the Teahouse project by german WMF is just inspired by the Teahouse of english Wikipedia. Should I just give credits to the authors of the WPEN version? Or link to it?

Question on Manual:Extension_registration#MigratingEdit

Hi Legoktm,

I am currently converting a bunch of extensions for MW 1.25. I have used convertExtensionToRegistration.php and that worked. However, there are two things on Manual:Extension_registration#Migrating where I am currently unsure what to do:

First, the page tells us to change the extension includes in LocalSettings.php from require_once() to wfLoadExtension(). This is the point where it starts throwing errors for me (like "class not found" or function not defined). The thing is that my function is defined in the central extension file.

For example, I add wfLoadExtension( 'BugtrackerStatus' ); to LocalSettings and it will tell me that a function, which is defined in extensions/BugtrackerStatus/BugtrackerStatus.php can no longer be found. What is the right way to solve that? Move the functions to another file, maybe into a class and autoload it? Or something else?

The second thing is: Am I right that in LocalSettings.php I should use wfLoadExtension() while in the main file of the extension I should add this if ( function_exists( 'wfLoadExtension' ) ) { block, which then for a second time contains a call to wfLoadExtension(). Is that correct? Seems duplicated to me...

Cheers! --88.130.99.237 01:19, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi!

1. wfLoadExtension() skips the PHP entry point entirely, so any code in there will not be loaded. This means any global functions must be converted into static class methods, that are loaded via AutoloadClasses.

2. We tell people to use wfLoadExtension() in LocalSettings.php, except there will be people who are still using the old-style require_once and loading the PHP entry point. So we can add a wfloadExtension() call inside the entry point. But some people will try using the newer extension version with old MediaWiki core, which is why we need the function_exists check.

Does that answer your questions? Legoktm (talk) 00:35, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

Yes, it does. It wasn't clear to me, that the old entry point would basically no longer be used at all. I thought that the most central, the main file would not suddenly become kind of superfluous.

Alright, I have moved my functions into a class in another file.

Thanks for the information! --88.130.86.234 22:20, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

A Little Help Finding DirectionEdit

Hey there. Thanks for the thanks on the Manual:Extension.json/Schema page! Quick question, as I haven't had contact with anyone else in the community, if you have a minute:

Who should I talk to about potentially tweaking the way article URL redirects work? Example:

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:runJobs.php gets turned into https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:runJobs.php

It would be nice if we/you/them/us stopped generating apparently antiquated URLs and then having to redirect to the new page. I am willing to work on such an tweak.

- Timmay911 (talk) 04:57, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi, and welcome :) Those URLs aren't antiquated, the redirect is kind of a hack around caching. Basically Special:MyLanguage redirects you to the version in your language, which for most of us is the canonical English source page. If you change your language and it's been translate to that language, Special:MyLanguage will redirect you to a different page. Legoktm (talk) 07:10, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Ahhh... I gotcha. There seems to be a lot of "hacks"... :) I'm reading as much as I can about everything in MW.

extreg-wos not listing a converted extensionEdit

Hi. I was looking for some work at <https://tools.wmflabs.org/extreg-wos/> and found that Extension:ChangeAuthor is listed as not converted, however it does have an extension.json file. Is it because there's no Phabricator ticket or because there's no empty PHP entry point for that extension? Thanks. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 17:16, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

For some reason, that extension doesn't appear to have a Phabricator/Diffusion mirror? <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/ChangeAuthor;browse/master/> is a broken link. I recently gave up on having the extreg-wos tool maintain git checkouts because it just was not working with the Toolforge NFS set up. Instead it now scrapes Phabricator to see if extension.json exists. So if the mirror can be added, extreg-wos should pick up that it's been converted. Legoktm (talk) 18:49, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

I see. The only reference that Phabricator had was an old SVN copy. I've created <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/ECHT/> that mirrors the Gerrit repo now. Thanks. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 08:18, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

SpamBlacklist 2.0Edit

(Pinging @Jackmcbarn: as well)

Hey Legoktm, I was thinking of completely revamping Extension:SpamBlacklist by ripping off Extension:AbuseFilter almost in its entirety, the only difference being that the abuse filters (aka blacklist) would be checked against a whitelist, as the current SpamBlacklist does. So there would be both a Special:SpamBlacklist and a Special:SpamWhitelist, both of which would look pretty much the same as the current Special:AbuseFilter.

The database tables too would have pretty much the same structure as AbuseFilter's, with spam_blacklist_history, spam_whitelist_history, etc. tables (unless both lists are going to be stored in the same table, and there's just going to be a sb_type field, that's 0 for blacklist and 1 for whitelist).

But now I'm thinking, is it possible that AbuseFilter and SpamBlacklist could/should just be combined into one extension, to reduce the amount of code duplication? E.g., Special:AbuseFilter could serve as the Special:SpamBlacklist, and then there would also be a Special:SpamWhitelist to override that?

It sounds like people want pretty much the same features in the new SpamBlacklist that AbuseFilter has. Thanks, Setian~mw (talk) 20:53, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

@Setian~mw: I like the rewrite idea and new features, but IMO, combining them into one extension isn't a great idea. Also, while I'm thinking about features, how about making whitelist entries be associated with a given blacklist entry instead of overriding the whole blacklist, to make it less likely that you accidentally whitelist something you don't mean to?

Since you appear to be the operator of one of the bots in question, I wanted to draw your attention to the discussion. Please let us know if the rights are still needed (or if they aren't). Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 02:44, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

Unblock my account.Edit

I have read the docs concerning priorities and Kiwix tickets. ThesenatorO5-2 (talk) 06:57, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

LOOMIO use or self-hosted instance in WMF?Edit

Hi! I saw you were confirming use of LOOMIO and I also noticed it was in onboarding info...can you please confirm if it is still used? Is/Was LOOMIO.org in use or self-hosted instance in WMF infrastructure? Thank you! Zblace (talk) 12:27, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

I don't believe Loomio is used anymore. And it was an instance hosted by Loomio itself, not self-hosted. Legoktm (talk) 23:08, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

MassMessage timestampEdit

Hi! We're talking about adding an automatic timestamp to outgoing MassMessages, because of the new MassMessage option to send as something as a page, which makes it more difficult to add any kind of signature. If there's a reason not to timestamp MassMessages, please let us know in phab:T270435#6743215. /Johan (WMF) (talk) 14:25, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

@Johan (WMF): I left a comment and am happy to provide input occasionally for these kinds of questions, but note that I no longer consider myself to be the MassMessage maintainer. Legoktm (talk) 22:23, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

Duly noted! If something like this pops up again I might ask for your input anyway, since you're happy to provide it, since it's more about "is there a specific reason we're not doing this?" than asking for your time to fix something. /Johan (WMF) (talk) 23:54, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
