Database dumps
by Byrial Jensen 17 Apr '25

17 Apr '25
Until some weeks agohttp://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html usedto show 4 dumps in progress at the same time. That meant that newdatabase dumps normally was available within about 3 weeks for alldatabases except for enwiki and maybe dewiki where the dump process dueto size took longer time.However the 4 dumps processes at one time become 3 some weeks ago. Andafter massive failures at June 4, only one dump has been in progress atthe same time. So at the current speed it will take several months tocome thru all dumps.Is it possible to speed up the process again using several dumpprocesses at the same time?Thank you,Byrial

EBNF grammar project status?
by Steve Bennett 01 Apr '25

01 Apr '25
What's the status of the project to create a grammar for Wikitext in EBNF?There are two pages:http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikitext_Metasyntaxhttp://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Markup_specNothing seems to have happened since January this year. Also the comments onthe latter page seem to indicate a lack of clear goal: is this just a funproject, is it to improve the existing parser, or is it to facilititate anew parser? It's obviously a lot of work, so it needs to be of clearbenefit.Brion requested the grammar IIRC (and there's a comment to that effect athttp://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7), so I'm wondering what became of it.Is there still a goal of replacing the parser? Or is there some alternativeplan?Steve

MediaWiki to Latex Converter
by Hugo Vincent 18 Jun '12

18 Jun '12
Hi everyone,I recently set up a MediaWiki (http://server.bluewatersys.com/w90n740/) and I need to extra the content from it and convert it into LaTeX syntax for printed documentation. I have googled for a suitable OSS solution but nothing was apparent.I would prefer a script written in Python, but any recommendations would be very welcome.Do you know of anything suitable?Kind Regards,Hugo Vincent,Bluewater Systems.

implementing the Interlanguage extension
by Amir E. Aharoni 06 Aug '10

06 Aug '10
Sorry about bugging the list about it, but can anyone please explainthe reason for not enabling the Interlanguage extension?See bug 15607 -https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15607I believe that enabling it will be very beneficial for many projectsand many people expressed their support of it. I am not saying thatthere are no reasons to not enable it; maybe there is a good reason,but i don't understand it. I also understand that there are many otherunsolved bugs, but this one seems to have a ready and rather simplesolution.I am only sending it to raise the problem. If you know the answer, youmay comment at the bug page.Thanks in advance.-- Amir Elisha Aharoniheb:http://haharoni.wordpress.com | eng:http://aharoni.wordpress.comcat:http://aprenent.wordpress.com | rus:http://amire80.livejournal.com"We're living in pieces, I want to live in peace." - T.

I've been putting placeholder images on a lot of articles on en:wp.e.g. [[Image:Replace this image male.svg]], which goes to[[Wikipedia:Fromowner]], which asks people to upload an image if theyown one.I know it's inspired people to add free content images to articles inseveral cases. What I'm interested in is numbers. So what I'd need isa list of edits where one of the SVGs that redirects to[[Wikipedia:Fromowner]] is replaced with an image. (Checking which ofthose are actually free images can come next.)Is there a tolerably easy way to get this info from a dump? AnyWikipedia statistics fans who think this'd be easy?(If the placeholders do work, then it'd also be useful convincing somewikiprojects to encourage the things. Not that there's ownership ofarticles on en:wp, of *course* ...)- d.

Disambiguation while editing
by Lars Aronsson 01 Oct '09

01 Oct '09
In the edit box, when I type [[John Doe]], I want some chance to verify that I'm linking to the right article, whether it is a disambiguation page, or by seeing the first sentence from that article. I know I can "preview" my edit and click that link to see the page (or ctrl-click to make it appear in a new tab), but that method just seems sooo 2002.Is there some tool, button or gadget that does this trick? Perhaps some greasemonkey script?What it would do: From where the cursor stands in the edit box, search backwards for a "[[" and then forwards to the following "|" or "]]" which ever comes first (this covers the case that the cursor is inside the link brackets). Look up that article, show the first paragraph or 150 characters in a pop-up. If I click a link in the pop-up (a top link, or a disambig page), replace the link in the edit box so it points to that article.-- Lars Aronsson (lars(a)aronsson.se) Aronsson Datateknik -http://aronsson.se

Hi everyone,Part of the Wikipedia Usability Initiative is a project to create a systemwhereby template calls are hidden (minimized, really) for most users on theedit page, and when users do want to edit template calls, they can do so viaa form instead of editing the template call directly. I'm involved with thatproject; my previous experience with such matters was creating the SemanticForms extension, which is similar in its basic concept. I've put together apage explaining the current thinking on how the system should work, here:http://usability.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template_formsWe're looking for feedback; any thoughts or questions are welcome, either onthat page's talk page or by responding to this email.Thanks,Yaron
