tantek: Maybe my memory is wrong about this (bc memory is fuzzy) but I thought you were one of the people in the room at Leaders Summit 2016 that agreed the website is a wall of text and needs to be redesigned to be more inviting to new people / next generation. Am I wrong about that?
#
tantek
shaners, it's too late to confirm or not. will see if I can restore some memories overnight.

Here’s a confusion / frustration of mine with MediaWiki. I want to experiment with the style of a page on the wiki. But I can’t add a style tag. I have to use inline styles on html. What are my options other than that?
#
[shaners]
If it was Just A Webpage™, I could just use CSS. This is an example of wiki Inessential Weirdness™.
#
gRegorLove
I think there's a config setting that could enable <style>
#
gRegorLove
Or you could edit your custom CSS under Preferences > Appearance

That's not page-specific, of course. But see some of my work: http://gregorlove.com/2016/06/i-am-tinkering-with-the/

What is h-card as a service?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "h-card as a service" yet. Would you like to create it? https://indiewebcamp.com/s/10Nb
#
[shaners]
h-card as a service is a website built by {{veganstraightedge}} to prototype the idea of replacing wiki profile pages with a simple form with fields for commonly used properties (name, url, photo, etc) already used by several people on the wiki which could be used as a single point of lookup for people’s h-card info. It also shows the h-card markup on a person’s profile page which could be copy/pasted onto one’s website.

gregorlove: I saw that. It’s certainly an improvement of mediawiki profiles. But I think the assumption that we ask people to use mediawiki free form text for what is largely structured data common between lots of profiles is the wrong way to go.

#
aaronpk
colintedford: what do you mean "renders shorter than its contents"?
#
colintedford
aaronpk: It obviously looks fine, but when I look at it in Firefox's inspector, the <body> is 400+ or 600+ px (maybe taking the viewable height?) as shown by a little inspector popup thingy, and I'm able to scroll past the blue highlight showing its area.
#
colintedford
Whereas one of the main content divs shwos as 300+ px tall.

Also, using the inspector to limit the width of <body> still leaves a bunch of stuff hanging out the sides.

ah strange

well i suspect some of those weird things will disappear after i upgrade the wiki to a new mediawiki version and get a new version of the skin
#

Ohhh, I mistakenly thought we were on the new version already.

is there a libravatar or gravatar mediawiki plugin installed on the wiki?

for what purpose?

(re: gravatar)

to output avatars, obviously the preference is libravatar

Ruxton
there's a few year old mediawiki plugin but looks to fall short

context: https://indiewebcamp.com/Template:Infobox_person this was made and I figured "why should I have to enter photo url if I supply a url"

Most of it's optional for moving indiewebcamp.com => indieweb.org... subdomains could just be moved to indieweb.org as-is

We need field testing from people who are outside our bubble.

The only thing we really need to decide now is the chat URLs since multiple channels don't fit in the current structure

at least the chat URL part has pretty much consensus. I'll try to build it in a way where it doesn't care whether it's at a subdomain or subdirectory.
#
bear
good nginx rules can hide that
#
aaronpk
it's a little bit about app architecture too. the way i normally do it is i have a global variable that says "here is the base URL you're installed at" and any time i need to write a URL to the page I build it from the base URL
#
bear
nods
#
bear
the nginx can hide the subdomain or not issue and a common root path
#
bear
so you can make the app only deal with the routes that are app related
#
aaronpk
ah yeah
#
aaronpk
right now it's just .php files tho so even easier
#
bear
chuckles
#
aaronpk
i have some nginx rules to match the URL patterns but they route to specific php files
gRegorLove joined the channel
#
bear
yea, it boils down to a location block other than / that does the proxy_pass
[kylewm] joined the channel
#
[kylewm]
nginx can do that but your app has to know it’s in a subdirectory to construct urls properly

sure, but I kinda consider "baseurl" something all good web apps do

ah, OK

KevinMarks1
chat.indieweb.org could get cookies from indieweb.org, right? so a wiki login could transfer to chat without chat cookies hitting the wiki
#
KevinMarks1
seems like that is an argument for a subdomain
#
aaronpk
separately from moving to indieweb.org, i'm planning on rebuilding the wiki login as a totally separate application where all it does is set a cookie, and the wiki (and other sites like chat) can read that cookie to know who's logged in

do I need to vote on all of these? I mostly agree with consensus

KevinMarks, what is the consensus?

and then the sub-apps can have their own cookies and not collide

it really is a higher lever than just chat.indieweb.org or indieweb.org/chat/ .... its really across a number of things

"all it does is set a cookie” <— you can share that cookie across subdomains??

i don't think consistency for consistency sake is valuable

wiki namespace conflicts would be a pro for using subdomains though
#
aaronpk
[kylewm]: yeah you can make cookies available to subdomains

foo.example.com can't set a cookie at *.example.com but example.com can

is there a specific issue you're talking about?

correct, it'd have to be indieweb.org/auth/ i guess

correct - indieweb.org/auth can set a *.indieweb.org tho

I thought that subdomains can set a cookie at root domains, and see both root and theirs, but can't see each others'
#
aaronpk
right, so auth.indieweb.org can't set a cookie that is visible to chat.indieweb.org
#
bear
depends on the name match -- (from the RFC) "A is a HDN string and has the form NB, where N is a non-empty name string, B has the form .B’, and B’ is a HDN string. (So, x.y.com domain-matches .Y.com but not Y.com.)"
#
KevinMarks1
it can if it puts it at indieweb.org
#
bear
so .indieweb.org could be seen by [auth|chat].indieweb.org
#
bear
(I should stop tho - my cookie knowledge may not be current as I last worried about this like 5 yrs ago)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
auth.indieweb.org can set one for .indieweb.org, which any other subdomain can see, (including www.indieweb.org) but NOT the non-subdomain version http://indieweb.org/ at least from my understanding of it
#
bear
:) - this is when I toss up the bike-shed flag at work and remind my team to return to their todo lists
#
bear
we will find out after the sub or not decision is made
#
aaronpk
the login thing is totally unrelated to the july 4 launch anyway
#
aaronpk
so no rush
#
aaronpk
it's tied to the wiki upgrade
#
aaronpk
(cause upgrading the indieauth plugin to new mediawiki version is not fun work)
#
bear
that is a good reason to have an auth app set a token
#
aaronpk
starts a page on wiki upgrade
#
bear
even if it's a wiki special case token
#
bear
err cookie with a token
#
aaronpk
yep, i should have done that originally
#
aaronpk
except if I did, indieauth.com probably wouldn't exist
#
bear
that's why we refactor and iterate

what is MediaWiki upgrade?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "MediaWiki upgrade" yet. Would you like to create it? https://indiewebcamp.com/s/10Nc
#
aaronpk
MediaWiki upgrade is a project to upgrade the IndieWeb wiki to a modern version of MediaWiki.

if anyone wants a "fun" task, please try to find which pages use each of these plugins so we can reevalutate whether they are actually necessary http://indiewebcamp.com/MediaWiki_upgrade
#
aaronpk
probably the easiest way is to download the source text of all the pages and grep them https://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/backup https://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/backup/data/

what is content addressing?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "content addressing" yet. Would you like to create it? https://indiewebcamp.com/s/10Nd
#
KevinMarks1
content addressing is a way of looking up pages or files by hashes of their contents rather than the URL of their origin server.

moved /camlistore to /Camlistore "canonical capitalization"
[kylewm] joined the channel
#
[kylewm]
can we have a vote on case sensitivity on the wiki? >:)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
actually i really wish that case didn't matter
#
aaronpk
one of the problems is that in mediawiki, the first letter of every page name is capitalized
#
[kylewm]
that would be annoying for gRegorLove ...
#
aaronpk
and iOS
#
aaronpk
[kylewm]: can you document the way you *want* mediawiki to handle case?
#
aaronpk
cause it's entirely possible that a combination of settings and css can make it work the way we want
#
aaronpk
but starting out with "x is bad" is not a good way to approach the problem
#
gRegorLove
Could cause problems with all the case-redirects we have
#
gRegorLove
...to turn it off at this point, I mean.
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i don't see any real use-cases for case sensitivity though
#
ben_thatmustbeme
and i'm not talking about autocorrecting case, its just for searching and uniqueness, why would gRegorLove have a problem with that
#
[kylewm]
starting out at “x is bad” is necessary in order to define the problem
#
[kylewm]
if there were no problem, there would be no discussion
#
gRegorLove
kylewm: Was the problem you went to /camlistore and there was nothing?
#
[kylewm]
no, I went to /Camlistore and there was nothing
#
aaronpk
i'm just saying it's very easy for everyone to agree that "x is bad" and then for nothing to actually happen
#
gRegorLove
Oh, right. Misread.
#
gRegorLove
I know shaners runs into that a fair bit too. E.g. /Planning at the leader summit
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i run in to it all the time
#
aaronpk
and yeah we can't just flip the switch, we'd have to delete all the case redirects first
#
gRegorLove
I like something like https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Case_sensitivity_of_page_names#Auto_redirect more than turning off case-sensitivity
#
aaronpk
this is the setting we are using: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgCapitalLinks = false
#
gRegorLove
Hm. Seems like a good setting. I dunno.
#
aaronpk
auto redirect sounds great
#
ben_thatmustbeme
although there are 1873 redirects
#
aaronpk
rather than jumping to a solution, what's the actual problem
#
aaronpk
it sounds like the actual problem is being surprised that a page doesn't exist when it actually exists with a different capitalization
#
ben_thatmustbeme
and then trying to find it
#
gRegorLove
Problem: typing in indiewebcamp.com/planning and expecting it to work. (It's fixed now)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
auto-redirect would work fine as a solution for that
#
[kylewm]
yeah, it’s nice to be able to define the proper capitalization of topics. I would just like it if it was smart about missing pages
#
aaronpk
great, so feel free to look around for an extension that does that. chances are someone else has had the same problem.
#
[kylewm]
Cool, I will do that after the upgrade
#
[kylewm]
no point in introducing complexity now
#
aaronpk
sure thing. add a note to the upgrade page maybe so we don't forget?

Interesting. Mediawiki doesn't do 302 redirects for the redirect pages, but displays the destination page and adds the right rel=canonical

aaronpk
that's a whole nother rabbit hole

aaronpk
iirc we enabled it briefly and then it caused other problems

Shouldn't be a problem, but I wonder if it'd be better if the address bar always displayed the "right" capitalization. Yeah, just saw that extension ^

The sparkline template is used to display an inline photo with a u-photo microformat. It is commonly used to create templates for users to sign their name on event RSVPs or other wiki pages https://indiewebcamp.com/wiki_signature
