[Wikitech-l] OAuth Not working for Flask application

[Egbe Eugene]

Dear All,
I have been trying to develop a tool which uses OAuth with Flask using
mwoauth as specified here[1].

Unfortunately, the OAuth request seems to not work as it ends with no error
messages.

After investigating, it looks like /oauth-callback does not execute (which
seems unusual).

This is not the first time I am doing this but it looks like I can't get
hold of the issue here.

I will appreciate any help!

Thanks
Eugene233

[Wikitech-l] Unable to Access new extension with mw.loader

[Egbe Eugene]

Hi All,

I am trying to convert an old extension into a module which I can use from
other extensions. After configuring with something like below:

"ResourceModules": {
"ext.myExtension": {
"packageFiles": [
"resources/ext.myExtension/index.js",
"resources/ext.myExtension/core.js",
"resources/ext.myExtension/foobar.js"
],
"styles": "resources/ext.myExtension.css",
"messages": [
"myextension-hello-world",
"myextension-goodbye-world"
],
"dependencies": [
"oojs"
]
}}

mw.loader.using('ext.myExtension')... results into a module not found error

What could be missing here?

What could be the cause of this?

Hi All,


We are working on Scribe[1], an editing interface to support low-resource
language Wikipedia editors. Scribe is a gadget. To test the gadget we would
need someone to deploy it to test Wikipedia, or to add One of us to the
interface admins group on test Wikipedia. Could anyone help us to proceed
with this or connect us with someone who has the knowledge to do that?
Thanks, the scribe team

Re: [Wikitech-l] Equivalence for using Template:Cite_Web with templates surrounding Wikicode

[Egbe Eugene]

Thanks very much for the suggestions.

It looks like I did not pose the question very clearly.

We desire that the surface displays something like "Hello[1] world[2]" on
the VE surface and then have the footer note pick up these [1] and [2]
automatically and display them for us at the bottom of the page as in the
case where {{cite|a}} gets picked up in wikicode and rendered.

Is this possible?

Thanks for the help Bartosz.  However, I have a large data definition of
both texts and citations so I was wondering if its possible to insert the

this possible?

Hi All,

I am implementing template https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cite_web in
VE and after using the template code[1], I get results shown below

{{Cite web|url=
https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_replace.asp|title=W3Schools|last=W3Schools|first=W3Schools
}}

what I desire to get is

{{Cite web|url=
https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_replace.asp|title=W3Schools|last=W3Schools|first=W3Schools}
}

So I guess I am missing something. Please I need help with this.

[Wikitech-l] Adding a Citation on VE surface using SurfaceModel

What is the best way to add a citation text on the VE surface?

I have wikitext of the form

{{sample mediawiki

|Title= Medaiwiki|Publisher = [[Wikimedia]]
|Date= 17 June 2019|Arrival date= 12 May 2017
| Archive Path = mediawiki.org| Archive date = 4 September 2019 }}


which when I paste, VE renders automatically. But when I write it as a
string, it does not render on the surface.

Hi All,

while going through OO.ui.confirm dialog documentation I got curious about
how to change the labels of the action buttons 'Ok' and 'Cancel' to show

'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

This is from a simple GET request to get imageinfo from Commons.

Please any hints?

I would recommend you start with the AWMD program.

This should be a good place where you will meet folks closest to you who
can help.

Thanks for the warm welcome into the community *All*

I wish to express my desire to participate in this year's summer of code as
i know it is the most rapid way ( apart from the hackathons) to hack the
Foundation projects. For someone as new to the foundation as i am, are
there any projects which could be suggested for me to quickly get about and
straight to work.

Thanks very much

[Wikitech-l] Introduction

[Egbe Eugene]

Hi all,

I am Egbe Eugene. I come from Cameroon and i am quite new to the movement
as a developer. My thought towards contributing to the community is driven
by the impact which the foundation could bring to my country and Africa and
also what i will do in order that the movement be heard around the ends of
my country.

I will also wish to enhance my engineering skills while contributing to the
movement by working on the foundation's projects.

Hope to get more help to get started soonest.

Thanks
