  1. Playing around with video.js beta 10. Top the new player, below the mediawiki placeholder (pre-JS loading).

    It works quite well so far. i need to look at a few more gaps, but it's getting there.

  8. Mein kleines Refactoring-Projekt der heimischen Infrastruktur zieht immer größere Kreise.

    Wenn ich den fetten Server nachts abschalten will, brauche ich 24x7 Ersatz in klein. Dafür habe ich gestern eine APU 1D4 mit #Debian 13 bestückt.

    Stellt sich raus, dass ich vor 10 Jahren einen #Datenlogger ebenfalls auf einer APU 1D4 installiert habe, der alle 5 Minuten 24x7 die Zählerstände des digitalen Stromzählers und vom #Wechselrichter in eine Datenbank protokolliert. Ach ja, langsam erinnere ich mich wieder.

    Die Software dafür läuft im wesentlichen seit dieser Zeit ununterbrochen (ausser Stromausfällen) in meinem hinterletzen Subnetz. Zum Glück hatte ich damals in einem #MediaWiki dokumentiert, was ich damals verbrochen hatte.

    $ grep PRETTY /etc/os-release
    PRETTY_NAME="CentOS Linux 7 (Core)"

    Da muss ich dann jetzt wohl auch mal ran...

  15. Native Markdown 1.2.0 is out!

    Fenced code blocks on #Markdown pages are now syntax highlighted server-side with Pygments, via the bundled SyntaxHighlight extension, exactly like wikitext ones.

    Also new: a maintenance script that bulk-converts existing pages to the Markdown content model, by .md title suffix or per namespace. Plus several thumbnail embed fixes.

  17. RE: mastodon.social/@ProWiki/11691

    Odd that no proper Markdown integration for #MediaWiki existed yet.

    The world uses Markdown; now your wiki can too! No more mistyped link syntax :)

  19. Write your wiki pages in Markdown!

    We've released Native Markdown, a new #OpenSource #MediaWiki extension. The entire page is stored as Markdown rather than embedded within wikitext via a tag.

    You get functioning links, categories, search, table of contents, and even templates and parser functions.

    Add it to existing wikis without breaking anything: existing pages stay wikitext, and new pages default to #Markdown.

  21. We've released AI support for Semantic MediaWiki!

    You can now connect Claude, ChatGPT, and other AI tools to your @smw via our #OpenSource MCP server. Let them run queries or even edit on your behalf.

    This is a game-changer for SMW, since it drastically lowers the learning curve and removes friction from common actions.

  23. Wheee! Spent this morning finally tracking down why adaptive sizing (class "fitted") had stopped working on the wikis some time ago. Turns out that WikiMedia 1.40+ breaks what I was doing because it changed how CSS classes were applied to images.

    Long story short, use figure.fitted > a > img { } instead (or in addition to) img.fitted { } in MediaWiki:Common.css

  26. Does anybody know a workflow for converting exported #MediaWiki XML (as produced by `Special:Export`) to a ZIM for use with #KiwiX?

    I'm willing to write some Python code for this if needed but would be happier if there's some tool that lets me just drop in the XML and get a KiwiX-ready ZIM out. I'm not fussed about the aesthetics of the result.

  28. I don't normally call out likers but I am grateful that @brooke liked this since she had to live through it. Maybe multiple times? I can't remember if multi-tenant was built into #MediaWiki from the beginning.

  30. @HannahClover @JakeOrlowitz I just saw this, about upcoming June 27 & 28 cafés. I'm already promoting other things this month, easy enough to add these to my existing efforts, especially where they align. meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_t #Wikipedia #Mediawiki #WMF
