Where do I find...

- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Sysadmin_hub
- Redirect code
- #redirect [[Glycoside Hydrolase Family 16]]
Some useful configuration pages
Sitenotice - for adding info to every page
Sitesubtitle - Edited, not sure of the effect...
Some useful extensions
Boilerplate extension - might be useful for creating new page templates
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Boilerplate http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Preloader
Handle refs. with Biblio:
http://openwetware.org/wiki/Wikiomics:Biblio
some templates from wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Template_messages
one thing that is semi ugly is that your login name appears at the top of your page or in the list of contributors (for instance User:HBrumer3 or User:Bernie); wouldn't it be nicer if the full real name of people would appear just like on the Board of Curators' page with Harry Brumer or Bernard Henrissat ?

Log
This section is a little Mediawiki maintenance log, which might become it's own page someday.
Started 02 September 2009.
UserContactLinks extended syntax extension
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:User_Contact_Links
- Allows replacement of "[[:User:username|full name]]" with "(3 tildes)User Name(3 tildes)", where User Name can be:
- wiki username
- user full name (first space last)
- last name of the user
- partial match of any part of user full name
- Had to slightly edit both PHP files to break-up (3 tildes)User Name(3 tildes) to "^^^user^^ ^" in description; this was resulting in "incorrect user" being shown on Special:Version.

Implemented ContactPage extension
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ContactPage
- Gives world-accessible contact form: Special:Contact
- Took some tweaking to get it to work:
- Line 125 in SpecialContact.php ($captcha = ConfirmEditHooks::getInstance();) broke Mediawiki
- Upgrading to ConfirmEdit-MW1.15-r50221 broke reCaptcha, e.g. on user signup page.
- Fixed by commenting out offending Line 125
- All seems OK
- reCaptcha works on all pages, including Special:Contact (must not be logged in as sysop to see it) and user signup page
- Also hacked ConfirmEdit.php to put "contactpage" captcha trigger there, instead of in LocalSettings.php (left a comment in the latter to that effect).

Playing around with image thumbnail settings
- see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Image_thumbnailing
- $wgUseImageMagick turned off in LocalSettings.php
- Was generating errors on Special:NewFiles (ImageMagick not installed...)
- Not clear if $wgUseImageResize should be used or not in MW 1.15
- Unclear info at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgUseImageResize
- Now uncommented in LocalSettings.php, maybe some effect with .gif (see GH11).
Harry Brumer 14:12, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
Implemented Extension:Cite/Special:Cite.php
- Generates full citation information for each page via a toolbox link
- see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cite/Special:Cite.php
- Mediawiki:Cite text created from cite_text file in extension directory (contains citation formats & layout)
Harry Brumer 13:12, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
- "Date retrieved" code doesn't seem to be working right. Tried to implement a solution Wikipedia is running using the ParserFunction extension and the time function, but ParserFunction seems to break the wiki. Also, had to disable MassEmailer due to some weird conflict that generated an error trail when saving Mediawiki:Cite text.
Harry Brumer 15:13, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
New version (r50579) of Extension:ParserFunctions added
- Fixed earlier problem with ParserFunctions breaking the wiki
- Allow use of time function in Mediawiki:Cite text to give the current time in the "Date retrieved" line.

Pages in Category test
- Might be something for MainPage, although claimed to be "expensive": http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words
- See also http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgExpensiveParserFunctionLimit
- Now containing 189 GH family pages and 33 lexicon pages.

Stopped implementing Extension:EditUser
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EditUser
- On ice for the moment.
- ChangePassword mainentance script will probably do what I need for now. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:ChangePassword.php
Harry Brumer 13:29, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Implemented Extension:LookupUser
- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LookupUser
- Gives SpecialPage Special:LookupUser showing user prefs., including email address.
- Currently accessible only to Bureaucrat group only (LocalSettings)
Harry Brumer 13:48, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Implemented Template:Smallcaps
- Wraps some markup for simple implementation of small caps, e.g. for use in d/l sugar nomenclature.
- NOTE (from the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Smallcaps/doc Smallcaps template doc page):
Your source text is not altered in the output, only the way it is displayed on the screen: a copy-paste of the text will give the small caps sections in their original form; similarly, an older or non-CSS browser will only display the original text on screen. This can be seen as a problem, solved with (the sc template).
- Code
{{Smallcaps|Your Text in 4004 bc}}
- Displayed
- Your Text in 4004 bc
- Pasted
- Your Text in 4004 bc
- So, the code needs to look like this:
{{Smallcaps|d}}
, to get d.{{Smallcaps|D}}
gives D.

Implementing Extension:DynamicPageList (a.k.a. Intersection)
- Allows showing intersections of Categories
- http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:DynamicPageList
