TODO
- Harvest Protecting President Zelenskyy against deep fakes a 2022 preprint at arxiv.org by Matyáš Boháček of Johannes Kepler Gymnasium and w:Hany Farid for the essential and interesting previous work in it. I saw enough to know that these guys are liquid gold in the science-hottness meter.
- Renaming and rescoping Help against appearance and voice theft. Hopefully a brother in Jesus will come over and help me out in the near future with this and various other questions
- wikidata:Wikidata:WikiProject Human rights/organization/human rights organizations is a great place to spot human rights organizations. The list is updated by a bot from Wikidata.
INCOMING
- commons:Commons:Timed Text
- Scrape w:Tron:_Legacy#Sound_and_visual_effects for more information on Disney's technology
- w:Wikipedia:Extended image syntax
IN PROGRESS
- WP Wiki Tooltip Wordpress plugin by Nico Danneberg that provides tooltips from wiki into Wordpress was installed. It seems to work fine and it possibility to fetch tooltips from multiple wikis. Need to redo the links the Wordpress https://stop-synthetic-filth.org/wp/ with WP Wiki Tooltip. They need a lot of fixing after the recent changes to article names and new articles.
EVALUATING
- mw:Extension:MediaWikiChat could be an useful thing to add to this wiki. Its release status is listed as "stable".
- Considering mw:Extension:Cargo and mw:Extension:Page Forms for structured data in-wiki in SSFWIKI. Other alternative would be mw:Wikibase. Yaron Koren, who wrote Cargo, also wrote the 'Working with MediaWiki book at workingwithmediawiki.com. In the book the relevant parts are found in Chapter 16 - Cargo and Semantic MediaWiki and Chapter 17 - Page Forms.
- For Wordpress moving away from Polylang to automatic translation with GTranslate. Whether GTranslate would play along nicely with WP Wiki Tooltip and RDP Wiki Embed remains to be discovered. Maybe set up a staging Wordpress just to test this out. There is an another Wordpress translator plugin called 'Google Language Translator' with very high reviews, but it has been purchased by the company behind Gtranslate, and remains to see if the plan to phase out that.
DONE
- RDP Wiki Embed Wordpress plugin by Robert D Payne at wordpress.org allows embedding (with reformatting possible) of mw:MediaWiki articles into Wordpress. See e.g. https://stop-synthetic-filth.org/wp/2021/12/a-disarming-weapon-against-synthetic-filth-by-facepinpoint-com-existed-from-2017-to-2021/ for how it works.

- Upgraded the MediaWiki to 1.39.7, tested a bit that the wiki and plugins work as expected, made and verified backups and took a snapshot. One bump in the road was that the mw:Extension:MatomoAnalytics, which is maintained by the kind folks at Miraheze, no longer supports the old LTS, even though the next LTS is projected to arrive in December 2025. A solution to the problem was to git checkout the last known commit that maintains compatibility with the MediaWiki 1.39-branch, which was
git checkout e63a479. Thanks to all who helped, you know who you are. - Making and verifying backups and taking a snapshot of the system disk in preparation for upgrade of MediaWiki to 1.39.7 LTS.
