Welcome, kspencer2. We've had an influx of IRC spam recently, and you were not yet recognized as a non-spammer. Your previous message wasn't sent to the channel, but I'm repeating it below so everyone can see it. You are now marked as verified, so your future messages will be sent as normal.

kspencer2: This channel has been hacked by Australia's #1 hacker Simon 'eVestigator' Smith https://evestigatorsucks.com/
#
tantek__
so that didn't work
#
tantek__
how come kspencer2 was verified?
#
aaronpk
weird, that shouldn't have been verified so quick
#
aaronpk
supposed to wait 30 seconds
#
tantek__
almost like an if true
#
aaronpk
everyone gets verified if they don't say anything for 30 seconds
#
tantek__
aaronpk could Loqi regen the newsletter every time there's been wiki edit with a max regen frequency of every 5 min? (perhaps at least on Fridays?)
#
tantek__
how long does a regen take?
#
aaronpk
several seconds
#
aaronpk
longer with more pictures since it copies them
#
tantek__
ok but still less than a minute
#
tantek__
then even once every minute if there's been a wiki edit should work right?
#
tantek__
when it ticks over to :00 seconds
#
tantek__
dougbeal possibly multiple problems, one was the photo not being in the h-event
#
tantek__
and the second (dwebsummit) was likely that the link to the wiki page was not a u-url
#
tantek__
on the /events page
tantek joined the channel
#
tantek__
darn. we need an (easier) way to include u-url for link to a wiki page for an event that has its own primary URL
#
tantek__
a *multiday* event that has its own primary URL
#
tantek__
!tell gRegorLove is/was there a multi-day event template?
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
tantek__
cant find one in any obvious place
#
tantek__
so how hard could this be
#
gRegorLove
tantek__: No. I tried back in the day and ran into MediaWiki version/plugin limitations. I haven't revisited yet with the upgraded MW. Might be possible now.
#
gRegorLove
User:Gregorlove.com << check on multi day event template with now-upgraded MediaWiki
#
Loqi
ok, I added "check on multi day event template with now-upgraded MediaWiki" to a brand new "See Also" section of /User:Gregorlove.com https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=50611&oldid=44716

Looks good!

figured a two-day hack was good enough for now for 99% of multi-day use-cases
#
tantek__
no need to enter day 2
#
tantek__
also there's a weird thing happening with end time and timezone offsets

and search for "5:00"

Looks like dt-start uses VCP but dt-end doesn't. I'll check on why php-mf2 isn't implying the date part for dt-end.
#
tantek
was also an event that wasn't even displaying on /Events because it lacked a wiki URL
#
tantek
so I commented it out
#
tantek
least work to unbreak the pager

tantek
page*
#
tantek
there are more though
#
tantek
hmm they seem to work
#
gRegorLove
Yeah, I think it will apply to any event with one-day template?
#
tantek
something was weird about the virtual HWC events with tz offsets
#
tantek
somehow lacking a wiki page was screwing up their end date
#
tantek
there's a 02-20 HWC event in Baltimore with -0500 that works fine
#
tantek__
dougbeal, confirmed, two problems. IWC SF lacked the photo because the </div> h-event was in the wrong place, and DWeb2018 lacked the photo because the /Events entry did not have a u-url to the wiki page so the wiki page was not discovered, and thus the photo was not found

#
tantek__
then where the did info come from?
#
gRegorLove
It's on the event page. Found via a tweet in #indieweb
#
tantek__
ah: " Contact Sarah Pugachev if you have any questions. "
#
gRegorLove
I was surprised too. I wasn't sure if she was the organizer or just a contact.
#
tantek__
a contact for an event qualifies as an organizer
#
tantek__
(certainly by default, lacking any other info)
#
tantek__
we should at least put that
#
tantek__
otherwise I wouldn't expect someone who found the event through us to even bother clicking through
#
gRegorLove
clicking through where?
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
gRegorLove
I was conservative with the edit bc I wasn't sure if they might be a university employee responsible for the venue booking vs someone actually organizing it.
#
tantek
clicking through from our event listing
#
tantek
hmm - I don't know how to balance that
#
tantek
also how can we even tell if the event happened?
#
tantek
first time in a new city from someone not on chat
#
gRegorLove
We could just list "Contact: " instead of "Organizer:" on /HWC
#
gRegorLove
I guess I don't see the issue on the event page itself; we don't usually list organizers there.
#
gRegorLove
Whether it happened is also an interesting question.
#
tantek
or both/either
#
tantek
like if all we have is a contact, we can list "Contact:"
#
gRegorLove
tantek, about to reply to their tweet to ask
#
tantek
good call
