[opensuse-wiki] Wiki regression with the current SSL changes
by Thomas Schmidt 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hi Matthew, after enabling the https enforcement in the opensuse wiki, the page review extension doesn't work anymore. It seems to do it's ajax requests with http and does not get through. I had a quick look, and it seems the protocol is not hardcoded in the FlaggedRevs extension, but detected incorrectly somehow. Do you have an idea? Currently some wiki pages cannot be updated anymore because the review doesn't work.

Dunno if anyone else here gets skull crushing visions from 'The Powers that Be', I sure don't - I don't think there is anyone who can answer that question I am afraid. However if the demo works it will be up to the website owners to accept merge requests to enable this functionality. They will only do that if they feel it's worth it - as they will have to maintain it in the future. As they don't seem like feeling responding here, I have no idea if they will. That is in part why I suggested to create a demo site of say open- build-service.org - if that works satisfactory, the owners of that site (that'd be Adrian & the rest of the OBS team, I suppose) might like it and be willing to adopt it. If they do, well, in dutch we say "once one sheep has crossed the dam, others will follow". > The reason why I used the term "shepherding" is because I am always > interested in building something that can live independently of myself-- > I'm not looking to make myself indispensible, from the first day of > anything I do I'm looking to bring on others who want to build the same > thing. Unless someone does it, it isn't gonna happen. We've got shepherders plenty, but no sheep interested in doing it until someone has shown it's worth doing. That's what I suggested doing... If you've implemented this and it is accepted by the website admins, that means they are convinced of the value. At that point, it WILL live on independent of you because they have to maintain it and websites which don't implement it might get it just to fall in line. > Also, awhile back I started penciling out what mass Translation for > openSUSE might become. Yes, all things start small. But, if this becomes > important to more people in openSUSE, I'd like to involve anyone who wants > this to enhance what they do and avoid being unable to deliver. It's about the first step - unless it's shown to work on a site and provides some benefit, it won't go anywhere, I'm afraid. That's why I suggested to Just Do It. > Tony > > On Sep 27, 2012 2:38 AM, "Jos Poortvliet" <jos(a)opensuse.org> wrote: > > On Wednesday 26 September 2012 15:18:09 Tony Su wrote: > > > Hello Jan (and whoever else receives this, I'm not subscribed to all > > > the mail-lists on CC) > > > > > > Yes, it's quite possible that the initial translations might not be > > > "good enough" -- and ultimately since machine translations today still > > > cannot usually provide better than word for word literal word > > > substitution, "good enough" is probably best defined as understandable > > > although not with the smooth idiomatic linguistic structures that can > > > best be provided by a human being. > > > > > > What machine translation can provide is the ability to get the proper > > > meaning across, to communicate an idea properly.

[opensuse-wiki] Outdated language Wikis
by Thomas Schmidt 11 Sep '12

11 Sep '12

Hi, I took the current release as a reason to check the state of our language wikis. I found out that we have some wikis which are perfectly up-to-date, some need some work, and some are completely outdated. If you feel that you can help on one of the outdated wikis, please step up and help fixing at least the frontpage and the Portal:12.2. The english wiki can be taken as a reference. I will also contact the wiki admins of the outdated wikis individually and see if they are still interested in maintaining their language wiki, because in the end we should drop the unmaintained wikis. Thanks for your help :-) Here is a summary of the wikis: == Perfect: http://cs.opensuse.org http://de.opensuse.org http://it.opensuse.org http://hu.opensuse.org http://ru.opensuse.org http://zh.opensuse.org http://zh-tw.opensuse.org == Partly: http://fr.opensuse.org/Portal:12.2 mostly complete 12.2 http://el.opensuse.org 12.2 links to Factory page http://es.opensuse.org 12.2 Portal partially broken http://nl.opensuse.org links to en portal from frontpage http://pt.opensuse.org no link to 12.2 at all http://sv.opensuse.org no link to 12.2 at all http://tr.opensuse.org no link to 12.2 http://ja.opensuse.org 12.2 not yet linked == Outdated: http://is.opensuse.org/ stuck on 11.2 http://fi.opensuse.org nearly no content http://vi.opensuse.org stuck on 11.1, not much content Greetings -- Thomas Schmidt (tom [at] opensuse.org) "Don't Panic", Douglas Adams (11.03.1952 - 11.05.2001) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+owner(a)opensuse.org
