agy | Hello all. I am going to be migrating the help.ubuntu.com wiki in about 15 minutes. During this time the wiki will be marked as read-only. The migration should take approximately 45 minutes to complete. | 10:47 |
---|---|---|
agy | The wiki syntax has changed a little bit, but not drastically - the migration scripts will migrate the pages to this new syntax, however I expect that it might not format everything correctly | 10:48 |
agy | Started the upgrade - the help.ubuntu.com wiki is now set to read-only mode. | 11:02 |
Rocket2DMn | ok | 11:04 |
Rocket2DMn | is this a new version of MoinMoin or something? | 11:04 |
agy | MoinMoin 1.6 | 11:04 |
Rocket2DMn | do you have a link to major changes?> | 11:04 |
agy | http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.6/raw-file/1.6.3/docs/CHANGES | 11:05 |
agy | and we've implemented openid authentication against launchpad | 11:05 |
Rocket2DMn | ok, are we going to need to check pages for syntax and formatting errors? | 11:06 |
Rocket2DMn | like, do we know what types of things will most likely be affected? | 11:06 |
agy | yes please - during my tests there were only minor problems | 11:07 |
agy | the syntax problems i found was with the source code blocks '{{{ }}}' | 11:08 |
Rocket2DMn | !ping | Old_Soldier , read above FYI | 11:09 |
agy | only on a few select pages | 11:09 |
Rocket2DMn | thanks agy, what exactly was going on with those, b/c they are used all over the place | 11:09 |
agy | it now requires a space after the open brackets | 11:09 |
agy | i.e. '{{{ code }}}' works, but '{{{code }}}' doesn't | 11:09 |
Rocket2DMn | oh my | 11:11 |
Rocket2DMn | will the docteam receive an email about this? | 11:11 |
Rocket2DMn | why not run a script that finds those type of entries in pages and fixes them automatically? | 11:15 |
agy | i can send one - which list should i send too? | 11:15 |
Rocket2DMn | agy, ubuntu-doc : https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-doc | 11:16 |
agy | i will send the message after the migration is complete, thanks | 11:16 |
Rocket2DMn | no, thank you | 11:17 |
Rocket2DMn | it would be nice if we can run a script to automatically fix the problems, or at least prompt the admin running it for each instance. i really don't think it's feasible for us to search through and fix every page by hand | 11:17 |
agy | Rocket2DMn: doing that right now while i wait for the data to be converted | 11:18 |
Rocket2DMn | what? the email or the script? | 11:18 |
agy | script | 11:19 |
Rocket2DMn | very groovy. this team has enough trouble trying to keep the wiki up to date, not to mention doing minor page fixes. we appreciate it | 11:19 |
Rocket2DMn | ok agy , its 3:30am here, im heading out. Thanks for the update on the wiki upgrades. Please let us know by email of any other problems that are likely to appear. Good night. | 11:28 |
agy | The migration has been completed! Please let me know if you notice any obvious issues? | 11:33 |
agy | I will mail the mailing list with the announcement | 11:33 |
wallan | i'm wanting to add the elisa media center to the multimedia applications pages, but there isn't a section for media centers. anybody got any ideas? | 13:02 |
wallan | this one, mainly: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications | 13:03 |
wallan | also, i'd like to delete this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Elisa | 13:06 |
wallan | anyone know how to do that? | 13:06 |
bimberi | wallan: Feel free to add a section to MultimediaApplications. | 13:16 |
bimberi | wallan: I can delete the page, but wouldn't it be better just to modify its content. | 13:17 |
bimberi | ? | 13:17 |
wallan | cool, i'll add the section | 13:18 |
wallan | yes, i could just modify it | 13:19 |
wallan | i thought deleting it might be neater... but maybe it isn't a very wiki-spirited | 13:19 |
wallan | :) | 13:19 |
bimberi | :) | 13:19 |
bimberi | In fact, how about Elisa becomes your content, and you link to it from MultimediaApplications. | 13:20 |
bimberi | Just an idea. | 13:20 |
wallan | what do you mean 'becomes your content'? i've added a new Elisa page here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ElisaMediaCenter | 13:22 |
wallan | should i just link to that? | 13:23 |
wallan | :s | 13:23 |
sommer | agy: nice job on the upgrade, thank you :) | 13:24 |
agy | sommer: np - pls let me know what issues you find | 13:25 |
bimberi | wallan: Try going to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Elisa now :) | 13:31 |
bimberi | wallan: By 'becomes your content' I meant that you replace what's on it with your page. No need though. What you've done is great imo. I've just made 'Elisa' redirect to it instead. | 13:32 |
wallan | bimberi: thanks, the redirect works. ElisaMediaCenter is a better page name than just Elisa | 14:31 |
bimberi | wallan: Indeed. np :) | 14:32 |
wallan | :) | 14:35 |
