Description

Wiki URL: https://allthetropes.org/

First, please remove the SiteScout and PageTriage extensions.

Second, we would like page moves be turned into a discrete right for admins only by default,with the ability to grant that right to other users on a discretionary basis.

We also request some extension additions and changes to existing extensions with the following settings:

wfLoadExtension( 'HAWelcome' );
$wgHAWelcomeWelcomeUsername = "GethN7";
wfLoadExtension( 'ImageRating' );
wfLoadExtension( 'PollNY' );
$wgPollDisplay['comments'] = true;
wfLoadExtension( 'QuizGame' );
wfLoadExtension( 'RandomFeaturedUser' );
wfLoadExtension( 'RandomGameUnit' );
wfLoadExtension( 'RandomUsersWithAvatars' );
wfLoadExtension( 'RelatedArticles' );
$wgRelatedArticlesUseCirrusSearch = false;
$wgRelatedArticlesFooterWhitelistedSkins = ['vector'];
wfLoadExtension( 'WikiForum' );

Perr T895: Review RandomUsersWithAvatars RandomUsersWithAvatars is declined.

Makes sense. Besides, it would have no filter against other wiki users and ATT users either.

Regrettably, going to have to ask QuizGame be disabled for now.

It works, but documentation is pretty poor, it loads slow, and the interface has some tooltip issues.

@Arcane21 I have made the appropriate changes and a PR has been made. Is that everything you want enabled/disabled? If so, please close this task as 'Resolved', thanking you.

Well, could you look into why RandomSelection is down? Our front page seems pretty broken and I noticed it vanished around the time those changes were made.

If that could be resolved, then we should have everything squared away.

@CnocBride Looks like you disabled RandomSelection instead of QuizGame by accident.

@Void Thanks mate, I'm sorry about that.

QuizGame has been removed and RandomSelection has been re-instated. Apologies @Arcane21 for my mistake. Task closed.

Mistakes happen, don't worry about it, just glad it was resolved.

We still need the rest of the features from this request.

Also,please add this feature for MobileFrontend and the accompanying skin if we don't have it already.

Choose one of those:
$wgMFDefaultSkinClass = 'SkinMinerva';
use Minerva skin

@Wiki1776 Are you interested in helping with this request?

@Arcane21 The default skin for ME is already Minerva.

Well, just making sure on the mobile request, we got some complaints our site is hard to read on mobile, glad to know that's addressed.

We still do need the other features.

I put the petitions in order.

We still need Related Articles to work on ATT. They show up on the Minerva skin, but not Vector.

Also, as pointless as this seems, it needs added;

$wgRelatedArticlesUseCirrusSearch = false;

According to the documentation on the relevant page for the extension feature on MW, it expects CirrusSearch, and without this switch, on other skins besides Minerva it will assume CirrusSearch is active even if it isn't.

Just asking for an update on this, could really use that CirrusSearch change for reasons given in above comment.

@Arcane21 I'm afraid that with CirrusSearch the comment here: T419#5263 still applies, as we do not have the resources to be constantly introducing new services as of now. Though, this can be reconsidered in the future, especially if many people request it, and if we have the means.

I've made $wgRelatedArticlesUseCirrusSearch, false

Also, just FYI any extension already installed can now be managed using Special:ManageWiki.

I see, I'm glad to hear that.

Also, we don't need nor want CirrusSearch, we just needed that change saying CirrusSearch usage was false to be implemented to make the Related Pages feature work on skins other than Minerva.

For the record, I also do not advise even attempting to add CirrusSearch to Miraheze at this time, it is a very robust service requiring a lot of resources, especially server space.

It's good to know we can also manage extension installation via ManageWiki, hopefully we can resolve the remaining issues ourselves after the remaining extensions are given their security screenings,

Yes, that depends on when Labster will find time to review them, of course.

One last thing, could you check to see if this is enabled?

$wgRelatedArticlesFooterWhitelistedSkins = ['vector']

We need to have this extension work on the Vector skin, but even with the proper markup, it's not working properly:

https://allthetropes.org/w/index.php?title=Eye_Scream&type=revision&diff=1596154&oldid=1596152

Which is strange because it SHOULD be working now according to the extension page:

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:RelatedArticles

@Arcane21 As you can see here: https://github.com/miraheze/mw-config/blob/master/LocalSettings.php#L4701 that setting is enabled, so if it's not working it's probably an upstream issue.

Since this cannot be set via Special:ManageWiki, we would like the RelatedPages feature to be whitelisted for every skin in use by ATT that is available on Miraheze.

We especially still want it working on Vector, but given this feature is meant to complement and eventually supplement our old text based "see these related pages" sections, it is essential we have this feature functioning ASAP.

We are also in need of an interwiki link to Wikilivres/Biblio Wiki

Getting a bizarre error message when I try to edit setting in Special:ManageWiki

Heh that was probably caused by us moving the metawiki db (which IIRC stores the managewiki stuff too). It should be available soon.

Ah.

Once that's fixed, we would appreciate having our RelatedPages issue looked into.

Also would like to know about RelatedArticles issue.

Hi, i have enabled it on minerva, vector and timeless.

You can use {{#related:<related page>}} in the wiki text editor.

With no reply stating otherwise besides open tasks, closing per new extension request process.
