Made and verified backups and took a snapshot of the system disk

  • Making and verifying backups and taking a snapshot in preparation of trying out the recently found fix for the REST communication 404s that Visual Editor has been causing for many. At least in one particular case it turned out to be an Apache2 rewrite configuration issue. Will try it out in my private test wiki and if it works there then I'll enable it in an another wiki and if that works then probably roll out the Visual Editor to all wikis, as that will enable also mobile users to edit the wiki (an CAPTCHA issue of long standing, pointed out by a Consumerium.org development wiki user). See ciumd:Tickets and feature request#Tickets under observation for general outline of the situation.

  • Making and verifying backups after substantial additions to ciumd:User:Jukeboksi/Wiki.study/Natural therapeutics#Alzheimer's, which I have been preparing since Saturday. I hope to get it soon to good shape in order to send to (ex) President Martti Ahtisaari of Finland, who has unfortunately come down with Alzheimer's disease.

Made and verified backups

  • Made and verified backups. Lately I've been keeping busy with #SSFWIKI improvements. Past few days I added 45 churches that I contacted in late 2020 to ssfwiki:Bibles and churches#Contacted. I also mailed all the parliamentarians of the Finnish 2019-2023 parliamentary session and also other political parties in Finland and am going to add those somewhere.

  • Reverted server to last Friday's state, upgraded the MediaWiki from 1.35.2 to 1.35.3 and now performing backups and snapshotting. Revert was due to that 1.36.1 breaks (apparently and according to Reedy) mw:Wikibase. MediaWiki 1.35 is LTS, so going to stay on that. Jukeboksi (talk) 19:31, 21 July 2021 (CEST)

The 50,000th edit in the Consumerium development wiki was the addition of really exciting research on the subject of COVID-19 and how cannabis helps against it. A friend's friend asked for these when I mentioned that I have some really interesting links on the subject of w:COVID-19 and w:cannabis, so I tweaked them into good format and in the process discovered a couple of new articles.

Submitted the ticket MediaWiki/Tickets/Phabricator T274807 - No CAPTCHA from ConfirmEdit served for users that use MobileFrontend

Sunday 2021-02-07

  • I was made aware today by a user on the Consumerium development wiki that there is a problem with invoking the mw:CAPTCHA for the mobile users, rendering mobile users unable to edit any pages. This is a semi-known issue in mw:Extension:MobileFrontend. There is an another minor issue to patch also. I'm looking for a solution or workaround to the problem for our mobile users and making backups now. Jukeboksi (talk) 16:08, 7 February 2021 (CET)
