“Mozart’s Requiem”, not “That Requiem that happened to have a shitload of composition by other people, and happened to be started by Mozart” :D

lol, no, he just couldn’t sing very well, tended to squeek when he went above a middle C

by the way, re: my question on moin... a big part of why I ask is I know the lists have to be resource intense... and some of the parsers and css improvements since 1.5 address almost exactly this type of larger “list of” page and how to make it non-intensive for the server
2008-02-01 03250, 2008
brianfreud
lol
2008-02-01 03228, 2008

plus, lol, every time I go to #moin to ask a question, they laugh at me for needing a solution that works with 1.3.5 :P

honestly, I don’t know the back story... I know we have newiki.mb.org, but it seems like there was a push for it, then the ticket stayed and the push went away...
2008-02-01 03246, 2008

that's pretty much what I was referring to...
2008-02-01 03245, 2008

doing wiki upgrades is a total pain in the ass. :-

2008-02-01 03230, 2008
brianfreud
though, to be honest, I’d half be of the opinion that we set up 1.6, but manually move pages over one by one, so we can make the new one structured (and fix migration issues 1by1 on the way), instead of trying to keep cleaning up what we have
2008-02-01 03246, 2008
brianfreud
a thousand item long “wanted pages” list isn’t quite useful, considering the relatively small size of the wiki
2008-02-01 03244, 2008
ruaok
that sounds painful, really. :-(
2008-02-01 03251, 2008
brianfreud
you think so?
2008-02-01 03251, 2008
ruaok
but easy for me...
2008-02-01 03208, 2008
nikki
how many pages does the wiki have?
2008-02-01 03210, 2008
ruaok
for you it would be painful, methinks.

can’t be any worse than finishing the Mozart list, only to start over and rewrite it again in place :P
2008-02-01 03242, 2008

well, few means approximately three to me, so I should hope so :P
2008-02-01 03259, 2008
brianfreud
nikki, my rough guess, maybe 2000 - 3000 pages
2008-02-01 03204, 2008

a lot of them stubs tho

one thing I’d suggest we could also do during such a manual migration would be to do kind of like wiki, use a card and split discussion and page, so the style pages don’t have 90% discussion to confuse
2008-02-01 03226, 2008
brianfreud
ruaok: perhaps I’ve spent too much time in the wiki... :D
2008-02-01 03255, 2008

well, if you seriously want to do this, installing a blank instance is not a big deal...

I am 100% willing to volunteer to be part (or head up, if needed) of a manual migration team... even if it means doing it myself...
2008-02-01 03259, 2008
brianfreud
only concern would be if the transclusion software, however it works, has any 1.6 compatability issues
2008-02-01 03212, 2008
ruaok
see, thats where I like this solution...
2008-02-01 03218, 2008
ruaok
I can work on that while you migrate data.
2008-02-01 03221, 2008
brianfreud
(and we would lose the current edit history, of course)
2008-02-01 03239, 2008
ruaok
good point. not so good.
2008-02-01 03256, 2008
ruaok
but we can keep a historical version for posterior sake
2008-02-01 03201, 2008
brianfreud
yeah, it’d be the same kind of blank slate we have now vs the old wiki... all history just stops at the old migration
2008-02-01 03215, 2008
brianfreud
but esp if we do split discussion off, it’d be easy to link to the old history right at the top of each page, so there’s some continuity... that just means we’d still have to run the old wiki in place (forever...)

2008-02-01 03230, 2008
brianfreud
maybe over top of the 1.5 install, if that’s served its purpose now...
I imagine there are plenty of artists who perform as "forename surname" who would need a performance name relationship of "forename middlename surname" if we insist on linking to full legal names
2008-02-01 03256, 2008
outsidecontext
yep, that's what i think. and most artists are not very consequent rtegarding their middlenames
2008-02-01 03223, 2008
yllona
yes, nikki i agree. it happens often when two performers have the same given name. example Vannessa Williams (now on TV, but is successful broadway and recording artist) and another singer actress Vannessa L. Williams. the latter added her middle initial to avoid confusion.
2008-02-01 03233, 2008
nikki
I don't mean what the artists use, I mean if we insist on using their full legal names and their shorter names as their performance names
2008-02-01 03248, 2008
pankkake
same problem for a stupid-songs child-singer, Ilona Mitrecey who often performs as just Ilona
2008-02-01 03211, 2008
pankkake
having tracks associated with Ilona *and* Ilona Mitrecey = hell
2008-02-01 03216, 2008
