Hello,
Here is the Discovery status update for the week starting 12 September.
Feedback and questions are welcome.

* We had a Discernatration demo on Tuesday, Sep 13 that was a success! [1]
* Several Discovery team members attended a Product and Tech on-site two
day meeting in the SF office

office

== Interactive ==
* You can now insert a link to a popup map with overlays on all wikis -
 [2]
* Map frame support is now enabled on all Wikipedia sister projects, but
not Wikipedia itself, except for HE,MK, and CA wikis -  [3]

== Portal ==
* updated language article stats on Wikipedia.org [4]
* updated the language list dropdown button phrase to now display: Read
Wikipedia in your language [5]
* updated the metadata description for Wikipedia to read: "Wikipedia is a
free online encyclopedia, created and edited by volunteers around the world
and hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation." [6]

== Search ==
* Automagically fixed ÿ in Spécial:IndexPages search by implementing
ascii-folding in French [7] [8]
* Tried to update to to ElasticSearch plugins to 2.4.0 but found out we
couldn't because our analysis plugins are not compatible [9]
* Added defaultsearchkeys to wiki search autocomplete [10]
* Fixed bug - mwgrep and "insource:" search is missing lots of pages in its
index [11]
* Make elasticsearch actually have shard allocation awareness [12]
* Fixed bug - "You may create the page" suggestion does not appear if
search contains 'AND', 'OR', 'NOT' anywhere in search even when these are
not used as special syntax [13]
* Updated WikimediaMaintenance/addWiki.php to create cirrus indices on all
available clusters [14]

== Analysis ==
* Tried finding ways to combine cirrus search logs with engagement data [15]
* Added event logging for the Wikipedia portal to capture the language
selected in the search box [16]
* Added updated the mobile dashboard for new features added in event
logging [17]
* Added 'other' pageviews to the dashboard accounting for 'keep alive' and
other hits to the Wikipedia.org page [18]
* Updated data access guidelines search logs from flourine to hive [19]

== Wikidata Query Service ==
* Materials and videos from the SPARQL Workshop on September 8th are
published [20]

== Other Noteworthy Stuff ==
* We started to experiment with ORES WP10 as new relevance factor in
fulltext search queries T145644 [21]
* There's a new glossary of search-related terms available on mediawiki.org.
Feel free to request additional definitions! [22]

Alas, it's not easily testable at the moment since it apparently only
activates itself in the main namespace, despite adding its link everywhere.

If I manually load it, it doesn't seem to actually include any of
Scribunto's data.

Peter Hedenskog is working on it. You can preview the work by visiting
https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Main_Page , clicking on
"performance inspector", and then "parser profiling data". We (=WMF
performance team) have been getting ready to announce this and to start

It looks like Aaron removed all the performance data that was previously
displayed at the bottom of the preview page in favor of hiding it in a
JavaScript variable. To access the logs now, you should be able to do
"mw.config.get(
'wgPageParseReport' ).scribunto['limitreport-logs']".

To make a user-friendly display now, someone would have to write a gadget
to generate some visible output from the data in that variable.

[Wikitech-l] Where has mw.log gone again?

2016-09-16 Thread Strainu
Back when preprocessor optimization data was displayed on the preview
page, one could see the output of mw.log and mw.logObject calls in the
LUA code there. Right now, I can't find any place when I can do that
any longer. I know about the debug console, but that is populated only
when you introduce something there and it's almost impossible to
exactly reproduce the parameters generated by passing through 3
templates and 2 other module calls.

A preliminary incident report that has not been peer reviewed is 
available at:

For the time being, all wikis are staying on 1.28.0-wmf.18.

We will discuss the best course of action on Monday.  Most probably get 
a proper fix then push wmf.19 and shift wmf.20 to later.

However, as I requested the project, I would assume, that I'm also the

Gerrit groups each have an 'Owners' field that specifies which group can 
administrate it. In some cases this points to the group itself, but 
extension-GoogleLogin is owned by the gerrit administrators.
