Hi all! I asked for help in the #wikimedia-tech IRC channel
and I was pointed here.
My problem:
since a few months, I can't reach http://upload.wikimedia.org
The error message I get from browsers it 'Timeout error'
I am located in North Italy and I'm using an ADSL provided by
a major national ISP. My IP address is static - I'd prefer not
to write it here, while I will be glad to provide more details
in private.
http://wikimedia.org works ok - but images in Wikipedia pages
that are from upload.wikimedia.org never show for me (BTW I
can see the same images if I use .nyud.net proxying system)
http://upload.wikimedia.org is the only URL I have issues
with - my web navigation has no relevant problems apart this.
I already tried changing the DNS servers I'm using, rebooting
the ADSL router, doing a few other common browser/networks
things - it didn't work. I'm usually on WindowsXPSP2 and there
are no active filtering software, firewalls or proxies here.
Thanks in advance.

The ParserFunctions extension currently has 44 open issues in Bugzilla (38 new, 1 assigned, 5 reopened - 1 major, 20 normal, 3 minor, 1 trivial, 19 enhancement)[1]. Recently there have been some discussions on this list on triage and assigning of issues. Who volunteers to do work on ParserFunctions, and get some issues closed?
Cheers! Siebrand

Why not just create a Template:Accmotion that contains
{{#expr:{{{d}}} + {{{v}}}*{{{t}}} + 0.5*{{{a}}}*{{{t}}}^2}}
and call
{{accmotion|d=4e2|v=2|a=4|t=7}}
Does that work? Are template parameters expanded before ParserFunctions?

Wait, that issue is with 1.12alpha. Don't know if it exists with later versions.

Excellent! Would've taken me a while to figure that one out (if ever). One issue is that tags aren't being translated back. They end up as the placeholder "UNIQx0x0-tagname-x0x0-QINU" strings.
Thank you very much,

$frame = $wgParser->getPreprocessor()->newFrame();
$frame->expand( $node, PPFrame::RECOVER_ORIG );

So the method Parser::preprocessToDom converts wikitext to a PPNode_DOM object. Is there a method that does the reverse (i.e. transforms a PPNode_DOM object to wikitext)?
Thanks,

I've since fixed up the getUserPermissionsErrors function to allow an
array of errors to be ignored to be passed.
It seems like a good idea to prevent blocked users from globally
blocking, and to allow extensions / other code to prevent doing action
X on title Y. This is why I prefer to use getUserPermissionsErrors
rather than isAllowed, since isAllowed only checks if the user has the
appropriate permission (this is the point of getUserPermissionsErrors
- to be a one-stop shop for checking permissions).
Also, the wfReadOnly checks are done in getUserPermissionsErrors, so
we need to add them separately if we are to use User::isAllowed.
