MsUpload

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

Today, I have installed a multi image uploader. Tock and I tested it and we think, it makes image uploads much easier. I hope it is not abused.

I believe that there should be a rule or limit to how many images, the size of each image, and the format of upload.

ReplaceText

I don't really know too much on extensions, but what about ReplaceText? It allows you to do a global search on a text string, and replace all instances of the string. It could be helpful for renamed users that need to replace all their edits/names.

Good idea, I will test it in the next days/week. -- Wiimm (talk) 21:06, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
Is the extension now available on the tockdom.com wiiki? --Horsti12™ THE Clouddealer (talk) 21:54, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
No, and it must wait at least 2 weeks until I have more time. Or Tock does it. -- Wiimm (talk) 21:59, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Update to MediaWiki 1.23.1 and more

I plan to update the Wiki to v1.23.1. I have already done it in a test wiki and 2 extensions do not longer work. So the changes will be:

  1. Update to MediaWiki 1.23.1
  2. Remove the extensions "Ratings" and "EmbedVideo"
  3. Install extension "Widgets"
  4. Create Widget:YouTube
  5. Edit Template:Youtube-box

Wiimm (talk) 19:03, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

ALL DONE!
Now I need a bot, that ...
  • deletes all {{track rating}} calls from all messages.
  • deletes all <Rating>...</Rating> tags with content from all messages.
I have no experience with wiki bots. So can anyone help?
Wiimm (talk) 21:34, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
I will add the commands to the bot I have running, if I'm fast enough and everything goes as it should go, it can be ran tomorrow.
