System

• issue: .excalidraw files can't be uploaded
  • "File extension ".excalidraw" does not match the detected MIME type of the file (application/json)."
  • disabling MIME type detection altogether is bad
  • customizations to MIME type detection can be made through extensions https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:MIME_type_detection
• issue: no code syntax highlighting
  • there is already computer code formatting and preformatted for basic formatting
  • the most downloaded extension https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight but a test installation on the test wiki broke it
  • a "drop in replacement" extension for the previous one with more up to date tech https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Highlightjs_Integration with an example on the test wiki https://pommel.uber.space/wiki/Syntax_highlighting_test
• issue: file upload limited to 2MB
  • the PDF manuals for the DHW tank are too big to upload
  • the mediawiki default is 100MB
  • modifications to the PHP configuration directives upload_max_filesize and post_max_size in php.ini required. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgMaxUploadSize
• issue: excalidraw generated SVG upload fails
  • "Found unsafe CSS in the style element of uploaded SVG file."
• issue: Mobile (MinervaNeue) does not allow editing on main page
  • by design https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Ui9jkjungdin7alo (more of a gotcha)
• issue: Mobile (MinervaNeue) does not allow page creation
  • option is there, just hidden https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Vi9o8iqrz2t4o2ge
• issue: Category pages need to be manually initialized
  • There is an extension to create them automatically when first referenced https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Auto_Create_Category_Pages
• issue: Media search is a bit tricky, require care when naming
  • https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T188236
• issue: Instant commons not enabled since it overwhelms local media
  • https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T366548
• issue: discussion/talk page discussion is tricky to do right
  • There is an extension for that! https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DiscussionTools
    • There's an issue with it: creating a new discussion page leads to a 404. Could be solved if there was a way to autocreate discussion pages, like the AutoCreateCategoryPages extension above. https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Topic:Yf61jpped9qatknc&topic_showPostId=yf61jppeddod1olk#flow-post-yf61jppeddod1olk
