PacmanD added a comment to T420341: PDF file has 0x0 image size in Commons.

I got a fresh repro with this file. This is the second time something similar happened to my PDF uploads. This file is kind of important to get working, because I want it to replace a similar file widely used by a template as font substitute on zh-wikisource.

PacmanD added a comment to T436576: Preserve a scan's orientation in ProofreadPage (as stored data with the Page:).

Manually correcting all such pages in Commons would be a substantial amount of work.

The ProofreadPage tool is broken on zh.wikisource.org. See:

PacmanD added a comment to T435428: Add an image pre-processing option (show-through suppression) before images are sent to OCR engines.

It's not really a matter of "just" (unless you're offering to write the code for this?). :-P

Just an option to enable Sauvola with a reasonable default k value is likely good enough.

Restricted Application added a project to T315706: Migrate existing Striker created Diffusion repos to GitLab: tools-platform-team.

Hi, I was trying to locate the source code for https://toolsadmin.wikimedia.org/tools/id/ws-google-ocr -- it's not listed in the admin page.
I want to verify if it's sharing the same source code as https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/toolforge-repos/ocr. Can the "git repo" fields be added for migrated projects?

PacmanD added a comment to T434684: 500 internal error when accessing toolsadmin ssh-keys.

I'm no longer able to repro after associating the various types of accounts. I think the association with ldap with Wikimedia developer account likely helped.

If I'm able to load this page (and others, without an active developer account), it could mean that some servers behind load balancer running with a different version of logic.

FWIW I'm seeing 500 on this page about half of the time; I can constantly repro.
