RolandUnger added a comment to T413548: Sortable table header markers are not shown in night mode if in namespace 100.

@Izno. You are true to reduce the usage of "important". But because it is already used it has to be used again for overwriting. Maybe the programmers of the night mode can change background to background-color only. I also do not know why such rules are necessary for this namespace only.

RolandUnger added a comment to T403510: [Main Rollout] Enable unified mobile routing on remaining wikis.

@Krinkle, de.wikivoyage.org: The "Karte" button is created by a Javascript and consists only of an image and a link <a href="#" ...>. The link itself is not used because an event is added to this tag. How will affect this both unified and m-dot? In future will remove the <a> tag because it is not really necessary (only for mouse behavior).

RolandUnger added a comment to T403510: [Main Rollout] Enable unified mobile routing on remaining wikis.

@Kinkle, es.wikivoyage.org: The code of https://es.wikivoyage.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Mobile.js (see also https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Mobile.js) is not necessary any longer because all scripts are now gadgets. It can completely be removed. Unfortunately I am now in holydays with a reduced set of tools (no 2FA), and therefore I cannot do it by myself, only in mid-November.

RolandUnger added a comment to T405823: Handling initial paragraphs on mobile devices for some Wikivoyages.

There was never a discussion on German (French etc.) Wikivoyages to use the non-default behavior. Why we should have now a discussion to use the default behavior? When this feature was introduced initial paragraphs were shown at the beginning of the text for mobile devices. Later on, nobody informed the (German) community that the default behavior was switched off.

I assume that in InitialiseSettings.php the vector.sticky_header test enrollment was removed, and that's why sticky headers are now visible on all wikis. A month ago, Wikidata was excluded. Maybe @ovasileva can tell us about this.

I learned that the coordinates are taken always from Wikidata (as noted by a maintenance category) because the frame:getParent().args used in the module are empty as stated by ABreault-WMF. As proposed by cscott I changed https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Template:GeoData to use #tag:indicator instead of <indicator>. It seems now working.

The use of templates is a Mediawiki core functionality. It should properly work in any case both in main, user and template namespaces. In the task described here it is a very easy case because <noinclude> can be ignored. This should be an easy task for programmers.

RolandUnger added a comment to T371383: Empty KartographerLiveData if rendered with Parsoid.

I do not think so. dewikivoyage uses the same Parsoid (0.20.0-a14) and Kartographer versions (4b02f48, 22 July 2024) like enwikivoyage. The only difference is that at dewikivoyage we had to use ?useparsoid=1 at the url to use Parsoid because Parsoid is not yet rolled out. But the Kartographer is not working properly with Parsoid. And I do not know why. As I can see, that the <maplink> is spanned with a <span> tag at dewikivoyage.

RolandUnger added a comment to T141345: Using Wikidata in Wikivoyage Listings.

Since about 7 years, at the German Wikivoyage a listing template (vCard) was developed which supports Wikidata import, too. The templates (vCard, Marker) are used already at the Spanish Wikivoyage, and we are preparing now the use them at the Japanese Wikivoyage. All parameters mentioned by T.seppelt are supported. The values of about 50 parameters can be fetched from Wikidata as can be seen from the ParWD table in https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Modul:VCard/Params . We propose to use at least two parameters like {{vCard/listing | name = aLocation | wikidata = Q12345678 }}. The name is only for readability and not necessary. The project is huge: There are about 30 Lua modules with 11.000 lines and 400 kBytes. It seems impossible to extend the existing tools at English Wikivoyage.

I think the disabling of the Wikivoyage nearby feature is proved a failure. The usage of this feature should be controlled by the community itself which can be done easily in MediaWiki:Kartographer.js and by adding a variable to the map object which can be analyzed before calling wvmap.nearby(). The were discussion on several pages (https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Wikivoyage:Lounge/Archiv_2022-12-31#Karte_mit_den_Wikivoyage_-_Artikeln? , https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Wikivoyage:L%C3%B6schantr%C3%A4ge/Wikivoyage:Artikel%C3%BCbersicht ) asking to keep the Wikivoyage nearby feature at least for a map showing all articles. In my view, the disabling of Wikivoyage nearby would meet with a refusal in other Wikivoyage branches, too.

By the way, on Sunday I detected the bug T328866. It seems that the non-existing function map.addDataLayer is called in Map.js.

@awight: You are correct that the display of external data never worked correctly. It was changed several times on someone's (Wikipedian's) instance and became worse and worse. I think at the beginning there were hints like Wikidata ids linked to Wikidata. And as you correctly noted, there is another problem: normally these objects should not be displayed because they belong to groups. There do not present separate groups.

RolandUnger added a comment to T328739: Kartographer maplink presents senseless coordinates in Wikivoyage for geoline external data.

Geo objects (lines, shapes) defined in <maplink>s are never written to the articles source code/HTML code. That's why they could never used as a link.

RolandUnger added a comment to T328739: Kartographer maplink presents senseless coordinates in Wikivoyage for geoline external data.

It is correct that the Kartographer software was not yet well documented. It is unfurtunately the same like other software projects including mw core. Primarily, the Kartographer software was developed for the use in Wikivoyage wikis in a collaboration with Wikivoyage's authors, and that's why the prior behavior was intended even if not documented (or only in the shallow depths of the web). In case of point markers, usually the text is not empty (text="") but undefined (see for instance function mu.makeMarkerSymbol in https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Modul:Marker_utilities). In case of lines and shapes defined by <maplink>, empty texts are combined with class = "no-icon" (see for instance function _mapframe in https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Modul:Mapframe). This makes sense for geo objects like lines and shapes because they usually have no point coordinate which could serve as a map center.

Now, a new failure occured: External data are noted as "Group: 1" (Gruppe: 1) but are not included in their groups. As you can learn from the wgKartographerLiveData variable, these features belong to groups, too.

@awight: The Script https://de.wikivoyage.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-MapTools.js uses the data from wgKartographerLiveData Javascript variable. In most cases, the features are included in this variable. The only exceptions are external data from OpenStreetMap and Wikimedia Commons: they must be fetched from WM's map server because they are not available elsewhere. Unfortunately, ext.kartographer.box is not able to do this job by itself.

GeoCrumbs are cascading so it makes sense to make a null edit on pages with escaped span tags. Using the parser function isin the precursor of an article is specified, and so on. There is only one exception: if the page title consists of both a basepage name and a subpage name, then the precursor is taken from the basepage name if isin is not specified.

Reason: The rule was made by myself, it was in my personal common.css. When I made this it was used to work with the language button. I think the programmers moved the vector-menu-content class from language button to the menus below the header instead of using another one.

At the German Wikivoyage the problem does not occur because there is an older Mediawiki version running. But if I am adding the rule mentioned above the same error occurs.
