Outreach
Goals
- One hundred daily contributors by end of September, 2011 (PortlandWiki's second birthday).

Planning
Neighborhoods
Transclude External Templates
- Portland's Wikipedia meetup page.
- Interwiki Links: Special:Interwiki

Transclusion template fix?
(yup, in a sort of half-ass way. hip hip fuckin' hooray. only wasted half a dozen painful hours so far...)
Intermittent functionality at this point. Caching issue?
Try purging page:
And the "Template fetch failed" error message is often something that goes away if you purge the page cache adding "?action=purge" to the URL.
Source: "Template fetch failed"
These syntax examples appear to work after page purge:
{{wikipedia::Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland}}
{{wikipedia::Wikipedia:Meetup/Portland/Invite}}
Transcluded invite begins here.
[Interwiki transcluding is disabled]
Transcluded invite ends here.
Further (transclusion issues) research.

- Manual:$wgHTTPTimeout

kotra asks:
- Are you trying to transclude the content from a Wikipedia page into PW? If so I think we would need to use mediawikiwiki:Manual:$wgEnableScaryTranscluding. -kotra (talk) 18:40, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
- Yup! That's exactly what I'm trying to do. Thanks kotra! - Dave Myers 16:49, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
Admin
Spent day researching how to upload pre written articles en masse.
MediaWiki Manuals
- Importing from other types of files
- The Edit.php, importImages.php and ImportTextFile.php maintenance scripts can be used to import text and images into MediaWiki.
Looked at
- Must Read: Wikipedia:Creating a bot
- MediaWiki Bulk Page Creator | MediaWiki Bulk Page Creator
- (Depends on Snoopy; already trying to get DreamHost to help with server config.)
- (Finally got Snoopy installed but MediaWiki Bulk Page Creator's scant documentation is hard to follow. Now looking at tools listed under Also, And....)
- (Depends on Snoopy; already trying to get DreamHost to help with server config.)
Also
And
- (Extension:External Data is part of the Semantic Bundle already installed on PortlandWiki.)
Other mediawiki extensions
- Will need to config SOAP.
Interesting stuff
- Remove Empty Directories — RED is a little utility that allows you to remove empty folders recursively.
- tester.jonasjohn.de — A website test tool.
- snippet library — A code snippets collection.
- htmlSQL — A PHP class which allows you to access HTML values by an SQL like syntax.
Other Admin To Do
- Complete what's left undone of these tasks.
Other Resources
- Infoboxes: Template:Infobox, Infobox
