I have this page on my wiki, which is really long:
http://fraternityofshadows.com/wiki/Timeline
I tried to use CollapseText to shorten it:
http://fraternityofshadows.com/w/index.php?title=Timeline&oldid=73152
It worked, except that all the footnotes provided by Cite are messed up in the collapsed text. Instead of [1], for example, the link says:
"UNIQ4664b6b81ad36c2d-nowiki-00000003-QINU1UNIQ4664b6b81ad36c2d-nowiki-00000004-QINU" which is substantially uglier. The cite link still works, but it doesn't display as it should.
Any idea how to resolve this (or do something similar to what I want)?
Thanks,
Ron

My dear MediaWiki and Semantic Wiki folks,
Just a reminder that SMWCon Spring 2012 will start on Wednesday 4/24 at
9am (Pacific Daylight Time, GMT-7) , kicking off with tutorials and a
first-ever editithon, then 2 full-day conference, all with gourmet meals,
and fun social activities, including the use of gym, saline pool and
executive lockers in the conference venue. If you're attending in person,
good for you; otherwise, you can still participate remotely.
We will try to do live broadcasting with WebEx tomorrow - the first time
for SMWCon, we sure hope the bandwidth is good enough. Please feel free to
join our webinar sessions as listed in each presentation. In case you
missed the live action, we'll also record video anyway for later watch -
and will upload within a day or two.
Of course, you can always participate via the IRC channel (general SMW IRC
channel #semantic-mediawiki <irc://irc.freenode.net/semantic-mediawiki> or
this webchat interface<http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=semantic-mediawiki&uio=d4>
.), and Twitter (#smwcon <https://twitter.com/#!/search/smwcon>).
Come to join us at TriCity Wellness Center, to share knowledge and play
with data!
Cheers,
Jesse Wang

Hi guys,
Currently I'm working on a wiki site (of course based on media wiki). My
boss's requirement is creating a MFC dialog like input tool for him to
add formatted information to the site. E.g. adding a publication, there
will be place for adding title, author, time, location and other misc.
information on each widget.
It's an easy job if I can load my php code to the server, unfortunately
I cannot. The IT department only allows me to edit via the wiki
interface but not access the server side. The best they can do is that
they will install standard wiki extension for me. Then I googled online
and found semantic form extension and simpleform extension. Again,
unfortunately, the latter one is out of update, which is considered as
"unsafe" component to the IT department and the former requires a
semantic mediawiki site installed which, they don't want to reinstall. I
got my hand cuffed here. Please, anyone who gives a comment or
suggestion is deeply appreciated.
Regards,

I'm puzzling over why our internal wiki is running so slow. I started a
couple of weeks ago typically a page that would have taken a few seconds
to load now can take up to 40 seconds.
I'm at a loss to identify anything on the LAN that might have affected
it.
The wiki is running on a windows 2003 server running IIS and PHP. I have
upgraded the wiki to 1.18.2 no difference. I have tried separate
connections to the MySQL database it uses on our MySQL box and they run
with no lag. I have moved the install to a local Linux box and also
tried a fresh install connecting back to the MySQL Database. Nothing
makes any difference. Can anyone suggest how I trouble shoot this?

I asked, and they said they would "put this extension through our
security review." Is there anything they should be told about
installing or configuring mw-slidy?

We cannot get thumbnails rendered for media file names that contain a
plus sign (+). The error we see is: "Error generating thumbnail - The
source file for the specified thumbnail does not exist." (but the
original file is there).
We found a web discussion of the problem, but without an solution. We
are using an Apache’s rewrite to process thumbs upon usage (rather
than at page saving time). Is this the culprit? The WMF/Commons have
solved it, but we cannot find a copy of the Apache rewrite WMF is
using (and the problem may be elsewhere anyways).
Has anyone encountered this problem and solved it?

Technical details:
Our mediwiki $wgIllegalFileChars setting includes ":" and "&", no "+"
We use a debian 6 server with standard php, apache2, mysql and mediawiki 1.18.1.

Your help is much appreciated!

We have some extensions that used the deprecated linking methods from skin objects. I've changed these to use Linker::LinkKnown for 1.18+, but now they don't work with 1.17 or below. Is there a recommended code practice that works for both?
Thanks.

Can anyone point me to a good blog extension they've used with Mediawiki? I
current have a blog maintained as a separate site (Joomla) that lets
readers know about new articles on the wiki (among with other news). I
would like to combine the two platforms into one. I saw the Wikilog
extension ( http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Wikilog). I'm wondering
if anyone uses this or something else.
(For more background about why I'm asking this question, see this post:

.)
Thanks,
Tom
