Revision as of 16:42, 16 May 2011
Outreach
Goals
- One hundred daily contributors by end of September, 2011 (PortlandWiki's second birthday).
- Easier user interface; make PortlandWiki readily accessible to non-geek contributors.
Planning
Neighborhoods
Semantic MediaWiki
Calendar Tools
- Semantic Result Formats (SRF) is a MediaWiki extension, used in conjunction with the Semantic MediaWiki extension, that bundles a number of further result formats for SMW's inline queries. The individual formats can be added to the installation independently, including...
- (Extension:Semantic Result Formats/calendar format replaces the Extension:Semantic Calendar.)
- (The Discourse DB Opinion calendar is a use-case example of the Extension:Semantic Result Formats/calendar format.)
Transclude External Templates
- Portland's Wikipedia meetup page.
- Magic Words: wikipedia:Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland/Invite
Transclusion template fix?
(yup, in a sort of half-ass way. hip hip fuckin' hooray. only wasted half a dozen painful hours so far...)
Intermittent functionality at this point. Caching issue?
Try purging page:
And the "Template fetch failed" error message is often something that goes away if you purge the page cache adding "?action=purge" to the URL.
Source: "Template fetch failed"
These syntax examples appear to work after page purge:
{{wikipedia::Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland}}{{wikipedia::Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland/Invite}}
Transcluded invite begins here.
[Interwiki transcluding is disabled]
Transcluded invite ends here.
Image Transclusion & Namespaces Transclusion Issues
- wikimedia:Mass Effect Wiki Collaboration.png (image link doesn't work)
(link to actual image)
- 50px|link=MediaWiki (image link doesn't work; namespace issues?)
(this image shows up because it's already uploaded to portlandwiki)
This image resides on PortlandWiki server AND Wikipedia server. - Manual:Linked images (namespace issues playing havoc with interwiki linking?)
Further (transclusion issues) research.
- User:Peter17/Reasonably efficient interwiki transclusion
- Help:Templates
- Help:Template
- Help:Embed page
- Manual:$wgEnableScaryTranscluding
- Manual:$wgTranscludeCacheExpiry
- Manual:$wgHTTPTimeout
- Manual talk:$wgGroupPermissions
- Wikipedia:Transclusion costs and benefits
kotra asks:
- Are you trying to transclude the content from a Wikipedia page into PW? If so I think we would need to use mediawikiwiki:Manual:$wgEnableScaryTranscluding. -kotra (talk) 18:40, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
- Yup! That's exactly what I'm trying to do. Thanks kotra! - Dave Myers 16:49, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
External Data | Import/Export Data
Spent day researching how to upload pre written articles en masse.
MediaWiki Manuals
- Importing from other types of files
- The Edit.php, importImages.php and ImportTextFile.php maintenance scripts can be used to import text and images into MediaWiki.
External Data
- Must Read: Wikipedia:Creating a bot
- MediaWiki Bulk Page Creator | MediaWiki Bulk Page Creator
- (Depends on Snoopy; already trying to get DreamHost to help with server config.)
- (Finally got Snoopy installed but MediaWiki Bulk Page Creator's scant documentation is hard to follow. Now looking at tools listed under Also, And....)
- (Depends on Snoopy; already trying to get DreamHost to help with server config.)
APIs Tutorials
Import / Export Tools & Extensions
- (Extension:External Data is part of the Semantic Bundle already installed on PortlandWiki.)
Other mediawiki extensions
- Will need to config SOAP.
Flickr Extensions
- Extension:Flickr#Changes_to_this_code
- wiki.edsimpson.co.uk > MediaWiki Extensions > Flickr Extension
Other Admin To Do
- Complete what's left undone of these tasks.
