MBH added a comment to T334940: All Graphs broken on Wikimedia wikis (due to security issue T336556).

Why not allow to use external data? External data could easy be safe, for example if it's in JSON (and mediawiki API returns pageviews data in json and XML, also MW API couldn't return destructive data at all).

Could someone say, what exactly the problem to recreate PageViews charts, that worked on Graph? They can't be implemented by datatables on Commons (because this data updates every day), but what's the problem to got data from the source where Graph got this data? Ruwiki has had pageviews graph for every page on "About this page" special page and on many talk pages, and all of these graphs was destroyed by disabling Graph and wasn't restored even now. What. Exactly. The. Problem?

MBH added a comment to T397727: Can't upload video to Commons: "incorrect fragment shifting".

@TheDJ As far as I remebmer, I tried to convert my video to webm (using the same ffmpeg 7.1.1) before I converted it to mpg, but convertation to webm was extremely slow - several frames per second. Because video was 120fps and has length 7 minutes, it will take weeks to convert all of it to webm. Maybe there are settings to more fast convertation, but I don't know them, I just say "convert 1.mp4 -o 1.webm". Convertation to mpg was really fast.

MBH added a comment to T395205: Do not exempt bots from EmailAuth checks on Wikimedia wikis.

I have several bots that have bot flag in many wikis, and still don't use bot passwords due to severe issue, about which I created phab ticket ~5 years ago. I checked "apihighlimits" when creating botpassword, but after logging in under this botpassword, maximum number of rows in API answers to this bot's requests lowered from 5000 to 500, like any non-bot user. My ticket was completely ignored by developers (it's hard to even find it now, because I created many tickets).

Yes, you found my error. After second try a file was uploaded successfully, but it still can't be played in browser due to "Совместимые источники для этого видео отсутствуют" error: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bobrovy_Log_rodelbahn.mpg Looks like we need to wait to encoding processes to be completed, but one of them (144p) is completed and a problem persists. (Why not to allow to upload to Commons in original mp4 format? I need to re-encode file on my PC locally (mp4 -> mpg), and after that file still needs to be re-encoded on Commons). Also Commons says that video's length is 0,2 s (really - 7 min), and has bitrate 3 kb/s (obviously wrong value too).

MBH added a comment to T389733: Increase RAM quota for mbh tool.

Another question: in last month many of my jobs disappeared from my processes (and wasn't successfully completed) without any output to .err files. Is it how process manager kills outlimited processes, or such killing will create a record in .err file?

Mar 27 2025, 7:05 PM · Toolforge (Quota-requests)
MBH added a comment to T389733: Increase RAM quota for mbh tool.

I thought, limits works not like

you can run a job only when it's possible to allocate you 12 GB right now

but

you can run a job in any time, if your job will request only 2 GB in certain run, it will be successfully completed even if jobs.yaml requires 12 GB for this job, but when your job will ask to allocate 12 GB + 1 byte of RAM, it will be killed by process manager

I doesn't thought that situation "server can't allocate you 12 GB of RAM" is possible at all, I thought Toolforge is a server system with terabytes of RAM in common use.

I know almost nothing about k8s, so I didn't think such a problem was possible (i don't even know what "worker" is). What happens if my process doesn't find the worker it needs? It will not run, or it will try to run in next hours?

Thank you. at the moment we use utf8mb3 across all tables - it isn't true at least for all wikiproject DBs, as far as I know. For many years I'm reading all of it using CharacterSet=utf8mb4; in my connection string and it works. Several years ago one ruwiki user had a username containing 4 byte utf-8 characters (it was first time my DB-reading tools got incorrect DB answer), I requested an advice here and taavi advised me to use CharacterSet=utf8mb4; in my connection string, see T257103.

Now files are waiting ~10 minutes before publishing and doesn't published due to errors "Unknown server error" and "Incorrect CSRF token". Uploading (first UploadWizard step) was very slow too with the same behavior than in previous case: 3 files in queue and all other files waiting, after several minutes this 3 files uploaded and next 3 files in queue.

MBH added a comment to T378276: Mass uploads to Commons doesn't work for me.

Also: looks like queue moving speed is heavy depends on "is browser window opened on the area of screen that is about files being uploaded now". I mean: there is experimentally obtained way to get uploading faster, and this way is "browser window should be opened on UploadMaster page AND (because we're uploading 250 files) page should be scrolled to the area with 3 files having inscriptions "wait your queue" - not higher (where files already uploaded), not lower (where files not even in queue)". If you wait several minutes for queue, but UploadMaster tab was inactive (another tab was opened in browser), uploading doesn't occur, but it occurs immediately after you switches to the UploadMaster tab in browser (and after that you need to wait new several minutes for another 3 files). I think it's because browser freezes JS execution on inactive tab, but earlier there was no such problem. Browser is Chrome.

@Bawolff

Is this constant, or does it happen to only some files. How often does it happen

On some days this was constant (on any file, uploaded using UploadWizard, all time of day), on other days it's less visible or doesn't occur.

Some timestamps and example file uploads that were slow. (e.g. what's an example of a file that was slow, how long did it actually take, how long would it normally take)

See "1418 Steps" upload strike on 27-28 October in my contribs [https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListFiles&offset=20241027170959%7CInterior_of_%221418_Steps_to_Victory_-_Memory_Path%22_museum_178.jpg&user=MBH&ilshowall=1], it occurs constantly all time of this strike. I made this upload in 5-7 pieces, every piece was very slow. See timestamps on pic - every several minutes (sometimes 3, but on this upload - 6-8) was uploaded 3 files.

What stage is the slowness at. Is it during upload or during publish? Does it happen only when uploading a large number of files?

It is during upload AND during publish. I select a bunch of files in folder on my PC (it can contain 150-250 files, and on this summer I have uploaded such bunches without any delays) - I move it to browser window with UploadMaster start step window opened using mouse - files being uploaded with rate "3 files in queue - after several minutes they are uploaded, next 3 files in queue" - after uploading all files I describe every file, set categories and WD mark - files published with the same rate "3 files in queue - after several minutes they are published, next 3 files in queue".

A mailing list just redirects all mail, sent to it, to all of its subscribers? We think a mailing list is preferable.

@Pppery what do you mean by "FlaggedRevs no longer tracks files"? Files are still reviewable, and reviewing of files is enabled in ruwiki, and this bug persists.
