Deleting image

Hi Egel, why do you think I'd delete this image? --→ Airon Ĉ 11:07, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for editing my pictures !! It's very kind to do that for french patches which you will never use on your wiki. You have the real service spirit !!Florian 22:09, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

Bot

Hi Egel, could you check your bot, adding the category:Knot? It is continually adding this category in my talkpage! :P --→ Airon Ĉ 16:43, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

I'm finally here!

--Kintetsubuffalo 08:05, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks !

Thank you for the retouch you make on the picture I upload, I’m not very good with picture edition :p Albatros 19:25, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

No problem, I think, it is simple. --egel 15:06, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Why ?

Why did you put out colors : http://media.scoutwiki.org/images/archive/3/3d/20120115110244%21Calendrier_SDF_1935.jpg ?

I don't agree

Translate extension

Hello, I see that this is a multilingual wiki. Have you considered using the Translate extension, which allows to easily make your MediaWiki multilingual? It makes you save enormous amounts of time which otherwise is wasted on templates wizardry, manual synchronisation of pages and so on, scarying off most translators; and offers many other aids to efficient translation. Now it's also available in handy tarball bundles. The page explains how to get help and more information, and there is extensive documentation; asking on #mediawiki-i18n @ freenode is probably your best chance for immediate assistance if needed.

Nettoyage de photo

Hello Egel. You have "cleaned" 2 pictures (Journal jam 1.jpg et Tomaq.jpg). J don't agree. By doing this, they may be cleaner but we have lost a lot in the ability to read texts if we enlarge them. Thank you for bringing the original images back online or to "clean" them more delicately. cordially--Trag (talk) 11:24, 25 March 2017 (UTC).

Redirect in wikibase

Hello Egel, I saw your work in Wikibase and completed it. But I found a few doubles I couldn't redirect myself. Could you do it ? Q22 should go to Q128, and Q44 to Q140. Or you could even delete them as I emptied them... Thanks! Francoisdbe (talk) 21:33, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

Thanks, I had bulk uploaded the information from the old Scouting Dictionary. With this special page you should be able to merge Wikibase items: Special:MergeItems.
Egel (talk) 21:54, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
Oh, thanks, I did not know this existed :) I’ll have a look!
I did not know the existence of this dictionary either, interesting! Is it still active ?
Other question : I see some pages have links to the German (de) wiki, and to scout-o-wiki… would it not be coherent to merge both of these together ?
Francoisdbe (talk)
The dictionary is not really active anymore. It will go offline once we have replicated the functionality using the ScoutWiki Wikibase.
Before we started the ScoutWiki Network, there were three German-language wikis about Scouting. Only the smallest, Swiss-German, joined the ScoutWiki Network and became de.scoutwiki.org, one disappeared and the largest, the German-German Scout-o-wiki, remained independent. Scout-o-wiki also has some integration with https://www.scoutnet.de .
Egel (talk) 08:13, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for your answer !
Other question: would the wikibase not be an interesting place to group properties (as, for example, member numbers of different associations, or name of responsible persons, so it is update more easily across all the wikis ? As wikidata is for Wikipedia ?
Francoisdbe (talk) 11:46, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
If you know how to do that, please do. And if so, also think about the various logos of the organisations and photos of individuals, among others.
Egel (talk) 12:26, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
I can have a look ! But I never set up something like this, I only used Wikidata a bit (and was impressed by the potential!) I'll see what can be done, and try it out a bit
Francoisdbe (talk) 13:12, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
The tough part will be to make information visible in the infoboxes. Adding everything to wikibase is feasible (but tiresome, I'll see if it can be automated or bulk imported) but it has to be readable on the wikis or else there is no point...
Francoisdbe (talk) 13:47, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
Hi Egel, I've been trying to import data from the Infoboxes in the french wiki, using this (for example "python pwb.py harvest_template -family:scoutwiki -lang:fr -page:"Pierre de Coubertin" \ -template:"Infobox personnalité" \ décès P6" should fetch the death date from fr:Pierre de Coubertin and put it in Property:P6 but it tells me "Page [[scoutmedia:Scoutmedia:List of wikis/python]] doesn't exist". Any idea why ? Once this works out, it should be possible to do bulk updates. Could you perhaps categorise User:Bot Francoisdbe as a robot to avoid any problem ? Thanks !
Francoisdbe (talk) 14:12, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
It wants something like https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:List_of_wikis/python at https://media.scoutwiki.org/ScoutMedia:List_of_wikis/python
Bot Francoisdbe is now a bot on ScoutMedia.
Egel (talk) 18:47, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
I have got the bot scripts almost working.
Egel (talk) 00:42, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
I see that :) But somehow the language code seems to have changed ? from "fr" to "scoutwiki_fr", for example - any idea why ?
On my side I tried a few things but not totally sucessful yet (I tried using harvest_template and newitem which could be vastly interesting but I haven't been able to get the hang of it)
Francoisdbe (talk) 08:39, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
MediaWiki's documentation is rather vague on many points and often lacks explanations of exactly how to configure it in the case of a farm. Wikibase's documentation seemed to indicate that you should use the interwiki code (ar, fr, nl, etc) as id in Wikibase, but it turned out that you should use the database name (scoutwiki_ar, scoutwiki_fr, scoutwiki_nl, etc). Hence, those can now be seen. Wikipedia does not have the link from database name to interwikicode properly in their databases, but the ScoutWikis now do from last night. Therefore, Wikibase uses a very nasty hack to extract the interwikicode from the database name, but because the ScoutWikis have a slightly different name convention for the databases, so that hack doesn't work here. I have now replaced that hack with slightly better code. Egel (talk) 14:31, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
To use Property:P6 Property:P143 or better Property:P248 must exist. I have got "python pwb.py interwikidata" working. Egel (talk) 16:37, 16 December 2022 (UTC)

Picture not visible when not logged in

Hello Egel, After you edited (in BW) the picture "Liesbeth Redeke-Hoek met haar kinderen.jpg", it leaves a blank picture on the page when not logged in.

It had some problems with the original long title "1926 Omstreeks - Liesbeth Redeke-Hoek met haar kinderen bij Sint Joris roeisloep - padvindersgroep 1 Den Helder.jpg" The redirect of files is not always perfect. -Egel (talk) 18:12, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

Suppression d'image

Bonsoir Egel,

Peux-tu supprimer la page https://media.scoutwiki.org/File:Markus_Christoph.jpg s'il te plaît ? En raison des droits d'auteurs.

Dank je wel !
