Changes

The only fucking thing you seem to be able to do is to remove the capability of people who care. When was the last time you actually made a meaningful contribution to this wiki? Now I even have to enter fucking captcha's...--- [https://hitchwiki.org/en/index.php?title=User_talk:Guaka&diff=prev&oldid=92398 Prino, November 2018] :Prino, it's all gonna be good at some point. [[User:Guaka|guaka]] ([[User talk:Guaka|talk]]) 21:59, 23 July 2019 (UTC) ::Spam protection seems to have been working fine for a while now. [[User:Guaka|guaka]] ([[User talk:Guaka|talk]]) 18:01, 28 May 2021 (CEST) == Dxc == Hey Guaka,<br>Thanks for getting active on this. Is there a way you're envisioning undoing the deletions -- manually? I see you've already started work, I would like to help. But can we do it in an organised way? Is the list on the Dxc talk page the beginning of organising it? Thanks for sharing your thoughts--[[User:Zenit|Zenit]] ([[User talk:Zenit|talk]]) 20:10, 5 May 2021 (CEST) :I moved the list here: [[Hitchwiki:Dxc_deletions]]:It's a matter of going through it and seeing if there are parts that can be copied back into the articles or possibly reverting edits. No easy solution. :The quick wins are the ones where dxc was the last contributor, showing as '''(current)''' in the list of contributions. Then you can quickly see what was removed and "rollback" if you're an admin. [[User:Guaka|guaka]] ([[User talk:Guaka|talk]]) 19:20, 7 May 2021 (CEST) ::Cool, thanks!--[[User:Zenit|Zenit]] ([[User talk:Zenit|talk]]) 17:36, 10 May 2021 (CEST) :::Since you're a bit more pro than me, maybe you can help me to understand if there is a possibility -- via a database dump perhaps -- to generate a list of all the articles Dxc has had their fingers in, from A to Z? I feel it would be easier to deal with that than with the plain list of edits (confusion has erupted majorly over who has done what already). Would be great!--[[User:Zenit|Zenit]] ([[User talk:Zenit|talk]]) 19:38, 11 May 2021 (CEST) == Uploading images fails == Hello, im not sure you're the right person to tell this but even if you aint maybe can point me in the right direction.I tried uploading some images and got the following error:Action failedCould not open lock file for "mwstore://local-backend/local-public/e/e6/LBP006.jpg". Make sure your upload directory is configured correctly and your web server has permission to write to that directory. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:$wgUploadDirectory for more information. (Warlo) :As I mentioned [[Hitchwiki:Community Portal#All files are gone!|here]], all files are gone. What happened? --[[User:GeorgDerReisende|GeorgDerReisende]] ([[User talk:GeorgDerReisende|talk]]) 14:51, 12 May 2021 (CEST) :: I saw that but didnt thought it was conected to being unable to upload more. --[[User:Warlo|Warlo]] ([[User talk:Warlo|talk]]) 16:44, 12 May 2021 (CEST) :::Huh? I can see all the files.--[[User:Zenit|Zenit]] ([[User talk:Zenit|talk]]) 02:34, 13 May 2021 (CEST) :I fixed uploading.:Now wondering what's up with existing files... [[User:Guaka|guaka]] ([[User talk:Guaka|talk]]) 11:22, 13 May 2021 (CEST)  == Password change fails, potentially compromised password ==Hi Guaka! Long time! I recently got a spammy extortion email that included the password that I use here in plaintext. It's a really old password that I used many places like 15 years ago, so it's not certain that it was gleaned form HW, but it is paired with the email I used on HW, and I can't think of anywhere else that that is the case. I wanted to log in and change my password, but when I do so it seems like the password change doesn't stick. [[User:Zac Stewart|Zac]]<small>^{[[User talk:Zac Stewart|talk]]}</small> :Hi Zac!:Strange. MediaWiki has been storing passwords as uniquely salted hashes for a very long time now. So even if an attacker would get a copy of the database, it would be very hard for them to figure out the actual password.:But let's dive into this... Wanna send me an email at hitchiki AT myusername DOT org? [[User:Guaka|guaka]] ([[User talk:Guaka|talk]]) 15:36, 15 June 2021 (CEST) == Helping with development == Hi Guaka, I would like to help with development on the maps. I have already prepared a mostly working solution that I can show to you if you have some time. I have been working on it on and off for a couple weeks now, but alone and was intending to open source it as soon as it was ready. It implements all existing data of the current hitchwiki maps, which I scraped (sorry!). Can we exchange private contact info somewhere? --[[User:Rebew|Rebew]] ([[User talk:Rebew|talk]]) 16:41, 12 October 2022 (CEST)  :You are welcome to scrape but this would have been easier: https://hitchwiki.org/dumps/:Email? [[User:Guaka|guaka]] ([[User talk:Guaka|talk]]) 23:57, 12 October 2022 (CEST) ::Yeah, that would've been easier. Ugh. Thanks. Tell me if my mail went through! :) --[[User:Rebew|Rebew]] ([[User talk:Rebew|talk]]) 11:27, 13 October 2022 (CEST)
