Re: [Wikitech-l] Change page’s content model

[Jonathan Morgan]

Thanks XaosFlux and Gergo,

Gergo: Diego is working on the templates in his userspace, but our plan is
to move them to the template namespace when we're done testing, etc.

Thanks again for the quick turnaround on this!

The content model is usually determined by the namespace when the page is
created, and stays the same after that (administrators can change it, as
you say). So you can create the page in the Template namespace with a .css
extension, which will make it a sanitized-css page, and then move it
elsewhere.

In my opinion it's better to keep such pages in the template namespace
though. User CSS subpages in particular are not ideal because they are
protected from editing by anyone other than the owner, making it difficult
to collaborate on them.

[Wikitech-l] Change page’s content model

[Diego Quintana]

Hello, I’m a web developer currently working with the Research Team in 
developing a new Template for Research Sub-Programs to be hosted on Meta, using 
the TemplateStyles extension.

I’ve never edited something on Wiki before but I’ve managed to create my user 
page, and build a sub-page with a sub-sub-page styles.css to later be moved to 
the Template namespace.

I’ve tested TemplateStyles using my page as the src attribute, but, apparently, 
my CSS’s content model defaults to CSS once I create it but in order to use 
TemplateStyles I need to make the content model sanitized-css for that page. 
And I noticed there’s a Content Model editor but it’s only available to 
Administrators.

My styles.css is here: 
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:DiegoQuintanaCL/Research_Program/styles.css

So my question is, could you change my CSS page’s content model to 
sanitized-css, or is there a way to create a new .css page and have it be 
sanitized-css from its creation.

Thank you very much.

[Manuel Arostegui]

Hello,

Tuesday 17th at 09:00 AM UTC we will be restarting db1132 as part
of T239791.
We will take the opportunity to upgrade MySQL there.

m2 holds the following databases:

- OTRS
- Recommendations API
- Reviewdb (gerrit)
- Debmonitor

We expect read-only time to be around 30-60 seconds, also, gerrit might be
unavailable as well.
Coordination will happen on #wikimedia-operations

Thanks!
Manuel.
