Outreach

Goals

  • One hundred daily contributors by end of September, 2011 (PortlandWiki's second birthday).
  • Easier user interface; make PortlandWiki readily accessible to non-geek contributors.

Planning

PortlandWiki:Planning

Neighborhoods

Transclude External Templates

Interwiki Invite (via Interwiki magicword)?

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.

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....)

Also

Article::doEdit()

And

(Extension:External Data is part of the Semantic Bundle already installed on PortlandWiki.)
Manual:Importing external content - Converting content from a CSV text file
csv and xls converter to wiki

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

Wiki Modules For Drupal 7
