Re: [Wikitech-l] Video codecs and mobile
Good morning, after reading all mails in this thread I'd like to comment on this. I care about this topic as I am leading the WikiTV project we started in Germany (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiTV#WikiTV_.28on_demand.29). I would appreciate to see WebM out soon, I think that is important. So here I agree with Michael - get the TMH released and then add H.264 support later. What is unclear to me: Do you mean to store all video data in an intermediate format (be it Ogg or WebM or whatever) and then do a realtime encoding based on the browsers preference and capabilities? From a usability point of view this would be perfect. I wouldn't be happy if I needed to upload WikiTV shows in three different formats in the future and I think it would also wasting a lot of disk space. Let alone that these files need a developer to actually get imported into Commons from a FTP server we have to host on our end because we can't upload more than 100 MB, which are 80% of our files. /Manuel -- Regards Manuel Schneider Wikimedia CH - Verein zur Förderung Freien Wissens Wikimedia CH - Association for the advancement of free knowledge www.wikimedia.ch ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

Alas that is still not enough to reveal to what the current vanilla
LocalSettings.php that gets produced deals with the issue. Perhaps
someone would be kind enough to post one.
Why don't you just set `date.timezone` in your php config and make all the

Re: [Wikitech-l] Using prototypical inheritance in dynamically loaded ResourceLoader modules
* Krinkle krinklem...@gmail.com [Mon, 19 Mar 2012 14:32:51 +0100]:
Converted all of for..in into $.each(). The most funny thing is that
$.each() did not work correctly with sparse arrays [], walking with
undefs between real elements. While for..in used to work fine
(FF,Chrome,IE8,IE9). So I had to convert sparse arrays into sparse
objects {}, just as you recommended. This way $.each() works, however it
also creates new context (different this) so I've had to use var
myself = this more often than it used to be.
The most pailful part was to pass control to the main module after edit
module was abruptly terminated (without any warnings in Chrome console).
I managed to call the main module method directly from edit module. Not
a very nice thing, but at least it works. Who would know that such
potentially easy thing as refactoring one js class into two
ResourceLoader modules can be that much painful. I used to dynamically
load jQuery for custom MediaWiki 1.15 installation via LABjs and don't
remember such problems back then.

I think it is time for Apple to support Wikipedia videos. I suggest that we view the thing from this point of view — Apple do not run a Top-10 site, we do. I would say that running something on Wikimedia servers which requires us to pay royalties seems incompatible to our mission. As far as I understand, that would be required for video transcoding. Same for MP3. Same was for Flash, which we did not use even though there were numerous cases when it was essential (we still cannot upload 100MB files to Commons because of that). It's not like it is that bad. OGG/WebM are supported by most major browsers, except IE, Safari and their mobile counterparts.

Re: [Wikitech-l] Integrating who's been awesome? to MedaiWiki
Hi James, Nice to hear from you. Thanks for your UI mockup. I went through it and got an idea about the functionality needed. I will describe what I understood by using a simple scenario. Suppose there is a user who has done 99 edits to a wiki. When he do his 100th edit and save it, he will be moved to a page with saved article. Then a link will appear in the top navigation bar in that page mentioning Know an editor who deserves a reward? (Now this user has done 100 edits. Therefore, whenever this user edit an article and save it, this link will appear) . When user clicks this link, a popup box with praising interface will appear. Then user can praise for another user and submit. After that thanks interface will appear in the popup box. If user clicks No thanks from praising interface, user will be moved to no thanks interface. In there if user clicks on No thanks, please don't ask me again, reward link will not appear in next edits by that user. If he clicks on Please let me know next time, praising will be ignored only for this edit. I have few questions 1. In your first UI mockup(MerchTool1), in yellow tag what do you mean by when feed back is turned? 2. What will happen when user clicks on I just need a bit more time, please keep the banner up now in no thanks interface?

The text of the email, for the benefit of the list, with my responses inline: I need help on MediaWiki mailing lists. I don't see our discussion Integrating 'who's been awesome?' as a seperate thread. I only get a mail as Wikitech-I Digest which includes replies for all the threads. Currently im using Gossamer threads to view discussions in separate threads .I tried to send this mail to Wikitech-I with the same subject. But I got a reply from wikitech-l-owner that my mail is unprocessed. Therefore I'm sending this mail to your personal email addresses. Sorry about that. I am guessing that the problem was that you tried to send big attachments. This list doesn't allow that. As you see, your most recent email made it in fine. You can change your preferences by logging in at https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l to leave digest mode and see mail as individual threads. My MediaWiki extension is to synchronize content such as images and rich text with html5 video. It can be used to create rich video lectures. When playing a video lecture, set of slides related to it will synchronize and play with the video. There are three special pages in my extension. First one is to upload or link a video to wiki(still to be developed). Next special page is to sample uploaded or linked video and assign content(slide) to each sample. Third one is to view the video and content attached to it. Currently I'm developing it in my local machine and still i don't have commit access to svn. Therefore I'm sorry. Because its hard for me to give a link to my extension. Go ahead and request a Git repository via this procedure: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git/New_repositories First you'll need a Wikimedia Labs account, and I'll need from you: Preferred wiki username.

Re: [Wikitech-l] enwiki revision schema migration in progress
Asher Feldman wrote: I've temporarily commented out db36 from db.php on the cluster. This is a flaw in the how the client-side use of maxlag interacts with our schema migration process - we run migrations on slaves one by one in an automated fashion, only moving to the next after replication lag catches up. Mediawiki takes care of not sending queries to the lagged slave that is under migration. Meanwhile, maxlag always reports the value of the most lagged slave. Not a new issue, but this particular alter table on enwiki is likely the most time intensive ever run at wmf. It's slightly ridiculous. For this one alter, I can stop the migration script and run each statement by hand, pulling and re-adding db's one by one along the way, but this isn't a sustainable process. Perhaps we can add a migration flag to mediawiki, which if enabled, changes the behavior of maxlag and wfWaitForSlaves() to ignore one highly lagged slave so long as others are available without lag. Thank you! My scripts are running fine again. :-) Some people have suggested that the current API behavior is intentional. That is, that having different servers return the same error code is better than having different servers return an error code or not. I think this is flawed logic due to the problems that it presents (scripts unable to get past the error code), but it's definitely something that needs investigation for the future.

Commit summary for MediaWiki.r114233:
Commit the cryptrand project worked on in git:
- MWCryptRand: A new api for generating cryptographic randomness for security
tokens. Uses whatever cryptographic source is available and if not falls back
to using random state and clock drift.
- wfRandomString - A simple non-cryptographic pesudo-random string generation
function to replace wfGenerateToken which was written pretending to be secure
when it's really not.
- Core updates to use MWCryptRand in various places:
-- user_token generation (to do this we stop generating user_token implicitly
and only generate it when needed to avoid depleting the system's entropy pool
by reading random data we'll never use)
-- email confirmation token generation
-- password salt generation
-- temporary password generation
-- Generation of the automatic watchlist token
-- login and create user tokens
-- session ids when php's entropy sources are not set
-- the installer when generating wgSecretKey and the upgrade key

Also get rid of action=purge from key args Jeroen De Dauw's comment: Indeed, this is to bad. In my original version you could use these as you would normally. That approach lacked the capability the have multiple blocks of cached HTML (or other values for that matter) though. So it does not work for pages that have non-cacheabale stuff through them. But it was definitely nicer for the simplest use case where you simply want to cache the entire output of a page (which possibly some non-cached stuff before and after). What I did after that approach was trying to extend OutputPage, to have a addCachedHTML method, which would be ideal. But I did not find a way to make this work. The problem is that you have an instance of OutputPage and want to change it into an instance of CachedOutputPage or whatever. Now since we got comments and checks everywhere to make sure that this object derives from OutputPage, CachedOutputPage better does this. So bye bye decorator pattern. If you know a way to do this without changing all the checks to some interface or whatever, then please let me know, because I think it would be nicer then what I ended up with now. This is what I ended up with after trying to get it to find a way to make it work (and then gave up on it): http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/EducationProgram/specials/SpecialCachedPage.php?revision=114044view=markuppathrev=114044 ___ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list mediawiki-coderev...@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview

Hello, Brion. I think it is time for Apple to support Wikipedia videos. I suggest that we view the thing from this point of view — Apple do not run a Top-10 site, we do. That would be nice but is completely unrealistic. Apple doesn't support Flash and that's on a lot more sites of the world. They don't bow to pressure from major players who could make them $$$, and they are certainly not going to bow to us. Besides, the lack of wikipedia videos does not appear to be hurting their performance.

Now, if we were to take this path, how do we flood Wikipedia with videos? Live interviews in all biographies of living people? If this turns out to be completely unrealistic, because we can't produce videos in sufficient quantity, then maybe the time is not yet mature for video in Wikipedia. Anyone have a good stockpile of old Public Domain movies? I believe there are also at least two freely licensed movies. Everyone is using Blender's CC-BY Big Buck Bunny for video demos. And I believe there was another film that was openly distributed using .torrents.

Re: [Wikitech-l] enwiki revision schema migration in progress

That is, that having different servers return the same error code is better than having different servers return an error code or not. I think this is flawed logic due to the problems that it presents (scripts unable to get past the error code), but it's definitely something that needs investigation for the future. You're confusing Apache servers and database servers. You're hitting different Apache servers at random, those are the srv numbers. Each Apache requests the current lag from all the DB servers serving that wiki, computes the maximum (in this case db36 wins easily) and checks that against your maxlag parameter. Obviously the highest lag is greater than your maxlag setting, so it throws an error and bails. Had it continued, or had you not set a maxlag parameter, you would have hit a DB server at random (except that it wouldn't have let you hit db36 because it was lagged to hell and back). So yeah /normally/ you hit DB servers at random and different servers might respond differently (or be lagged to different degrees), but in this particular case it was always the same DB server returning the same lag value. Nothing strange going on here, this is how the maxlag parameter works. Roan ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
