PleaseStand added a comment to T210685: Depends-On should not work across branches.

I added a note about this problem to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Cross-repo_dependencies, as this is something I ran into while working on T326454. I hope I described it correctly.

PleaseStand changed the status of T326454: Creation of dynamic property Mail_smtp::$greeting is deprecated from Stalled to Open.

PEAR Mail 1.5.1 was released a couple days ago, so we can now apply this eight month old bug fix to MediaWiki.

PleaseStand added a comment to T337700: Exception: "Malformed UTF-8 characters" in Parser\MagicWordArray (via LqtVIew).

HistoryBlobCurStub objects were added during the 1.5 upgrade for each revision in the cur table (the current revision of each page that existed at the time of the upgrade). When adding such rows to the text table, the upgrade1_5.php script would set old_flags to 'object' (leaving out the 'utf-8' flag) and would not convert the character encoding. (source)

This wikitext comes from the local message override at https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Pagetitle&action=edit. This code removes the namespace prefix from the HTML titles of pages in the Author (diff), Portal (diff), and Translation (diff) namespaces and corresponding talk namespaces, apparently so it won't appear in search engine (Google) results pages. This may have been done in order to avoid having to set $wgRestrictDisplayTitle to false (the default is true).

PleaseStand added a comment to T313302: addWiki.php is broken (2022-07).

Apparently, the SecurePoll tables (or at least the securepoll_elections table) didn't get created on blkwiki, and this is causing an error (on votewiki) that prevents editing polls. This needs to be fixed very soon because there is an upcoming board election. See T314006: Can't edit SecurePoll poll on votewiki (DBQueryError): Error 1146: Table 'blkwiki.securepoll_elections' doesn't exist.

It depends how quickly SecurePoll can be installed on the new wiki (if that's necessary?), but perhaps there might be a way to have votewiki ignore blkwiki?

PleaseStand added a comment to T106994: generateSitemap.php - Error: 1300 Invalid utf8 character string: 'F0A8AE'.

I saw this bug, and my first analysis is that depending on the language (and particularly the number of bytes for the translation of the namespace "User") the 64 UTF-8 characters are sometimes splitted and the last character becomes invalid (e.g. 2 first bytes instead of 4 bytes).

PleaseStand added a comment to T141286: Update site CSS customizations for the new change screen in Gerrit 2.12.

I believe I meant you should change .com-google-gerrit-client-diff-DiffTable_BinderImpl_GenCss_style-table to .com-google-gerrit-client-diff-DiffTable_BinderImpl_GenCss_style-table .CodeMirror. I did test this using Firefox Developer Tools, though not by editing GerritSite.css. (I do not have Gerrit installed locally.)

white-space: pre-wrap !important;
}

with

.CodeMirror

Would you show me what css to use please from the above.

PleaseStand added a comment to T137642: IcuCollation sort keys depend on PHP/HHVM version.

@PleaseStand I think we can simply backport the patch to our current version of HHVM, by the way, in order to make the behaviour consistent. We won't need to remove the null byte then, AIUI.

Or rather, trimming the null byte off in IcuCollation should address the major problem with CategoryViewer's pagination on frwiki.

Could you not just do the update with some replication-safe equivalent of

UPDATE categorylinks SET cl_sortkey=LEFT(cl_sortkey, LENGTH(cl_sortkey)-1) WHERE cl_sortkey LIKE '%\0'
