The "wgAdminUser and wgAdminPassword" fields in the AdminSettings.php are filled in correctly with the mysql superuser.

The coming challenges for Wikimedia Commons

All The Modern Things[All The Modern Things] Here I mean the relationship between the Commons community and each community of each other Wikimedia wiki. If I ever see another project get so annoyed that they threaten to (or actually do) tell their users to stop uploading to Commons and just upload locally, then I will consider that the Commons community has massively failed.

Re: Brion: Wikimedia SVN commit access request

Wikipedia | Wikitechhttp://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/wiki/wikitech/138333 [Wikipedia | Wikitech] There are some issues, I forgot, that Wikimedia servers use MySQL 4.0, that doesn't support subqueries, so I'll have to redesign complex SQL queries. But I'm going to correct this and other minor issues soon, and finish accomodation.

The Quick & Dirty Guide to Personal Wikis

Stepcase Lifehackhttp://www.lifehack.org/articles/technology/the-quick-dirty-guide-to-personal-wikis.html [Stepcase Lifehack] Using a system that adopts the MediaWiki markup language is a good move, since it’s the one you’re most likely to need if other people invite you to participate in their own wikis. Honestly, I wish wikis had just used HTML and perhaps added some extra tags for wiki specific features, but you get what you’re given.

For example, they can select from the new data pricing (ranging from $30 for 300MB to $100 for 6GB or $50 Flex Rate plan) and add a voice plan, or they can choose a combined voice and data plan to best suit their individual needs.

Wikis and public libraries

LIBR 246-11 - A Web 2.0 learning community[LIBR 246-11 - A Web 2.0 learning community] Creating a wiki was a new experience, something I hadn't done previously in class or at the library where I work.  For me it was harder choosing a topic and deciding what to say than putting it online, since I chose a fairly straightforward format.  The WetPaint instructions suggested using links often, so I decided to add a menu at the bottom of each page.  Of course that would have to be changed if new pages (as opposed to entries on each page) were added, but I thought it made the wiki navigation seem very clear.
