Hello all,
It's coming close to time for annual appointments of community members to
serve on the Code of Conduct (CoC) committee. The Code of Conduct Committee
is a team of five trusted individuals plus five auxiliary members with
diverse affiliations responsible for general enforcement of the Code of
conduct for Wikimedia technical spaces. Committee members are in charge of
processing complaints, discussing with the parties affected, agreeing on
resolutions, and following up on their enforcement. For more on their
duties and roles, see
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Code_of_Conduct/Committee
This is a call for community members interested in volunteering for
appointment to this committee. Volunteers serving in this role should be
experienced Wikimedians or have had experience serving in a similar
position before.
The current committee is doing the selection and will research and discuss
candidates. Six weeks before the beginning of the next Committee term,
meaning 27th of April 2019, they will publish their candidate slate (a list
of candidates) on-wiki. The community can provide feedback on these
candidates, via private email to the group choosing the next Committee. The
feedback period will be two weeks. The current Committee will then either
finalize the slate, or update the candidate slate in response to concerns
raised. If the candidate slate changes, there will be another two week
feedback period covering the newly proposed members. After the selections
are finalized, there will be a training period, after which the new
Committee is appointed. The current Committee continues to serve until the
feedback, selection, and training process is complete.
If you are interested in serving on this committee or like to nominate a
candidate, please write an email to *techconductcandidates** AT
wikimedia.org <http://wikimedia.org>* with details of your experience on
the projects, your thoughts on the code of conduct and the committee and
what you hope to bring to the role and whether you have a preference in
being auxiliary or constant member of the committee. The committee consists
of five members plus five auxiliary members and they will serve for a year;
all applications are appreciated and will be carefully considered. The
deadline for applications is end of day on 19th of April, 2020.
Please feel free to pass this invitation along to any users who you think
may be qualified and interested.
Best,
Amir on behalf of the CoC committee
Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to configure an Apache/2.4.34 server on CentOS 7 to use
Apache Event MDM. We need to switch because GoDaddy has been
suspending our service for using too much CPU time. Top shows it is
due to Apache processes. In addition we had chronic memory problems
and OOM kills.
I followed https://tecadmin.net/enable-event-mpm-in-apache-2-4/ and
got Event MDM running. Our web page at https://www.cryptopp.com/ loads
lightening fast. That's a nice improvement.
Our Mediawiki server is 1.33. It is located at
https://www.cryptopp.com/wiki/. The Event MDM change seems to have
broken our wiki. It just displays:
run();
Can anyone point out what might be wrong here?
Hi, everybody,
I think I have a problem (I don't know how serious) related to the DB schema of my wiki (tunearch.org).
Having said that everything seems to work correctly (navigate, search, edit, …), If I run php cleanupUsersWithNoId.php --force --prefix=* the program works only with the revision table
for archive, logging, image, oldimage, filearchive, ipblocks and recentchanges tables I get an error similar to this:
===============
Beginning cleanup of archive
Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError from line 1603 of /var/www/w/includes/libs/rdbms/database/Database.php: A database query error has occurred. Did you forget to run your application's database schema updater after upgrading?

I ran cleanupUsersWithNoId.php to then run migrateActors.php because an error received during the installation of an extension (e.g. Extension:Comments) suggested that I had not run my "application's database schema updater after upgrading".
Any help is appreciated

Hi,
A new episode of the MediaWiki podcast "Between the Brackets" is out: this
one features Evita Hollis, who runs the GE Wiki at General Electric -
possibly the single largest MediaWiki installation within a company (I
could be wrong about that, though).You can listen to our entire
conversation here:
