Found this picture yesterday and it seems like a wonderful source of technologies, most to be combatted, but there may be a few beneficial ones in there too. Saved an offline copy, because sometimes treasure disappears from the Internet.

So I set in LocalSettings.php

• $wgAllowExternalImages = false; # not really needed, is false by default
• $wgEnableImageWhitelist = true;

and enabled that particular image in MediaWiki:External image whitelist. Formatting external images is more challenging, but I would like to not copyvio this one.

Next I'm going to look into mw:Extension:ImageMap

• I had a go at Special:Export the citation templates from Wikipedia and Special:Import in a private test wiki and ran into problems. After a bit of help from helpful people at #mediawiki it was suggested that I write a ticket so that someone else can try to reproduce the bug and hopefully that it will be ultimately fixed. Phabricator T268273 - Missing content_model rows after importing templates and modules
• Finally located instructions for importing citation templates at mw:VisualEditor/Citation tool. Previously I knew only of instructions on how to import infoboxen, which is a somewhat similar procedure. Juho Kunsola (talk) 15:45, 19 November 2020 (CET)

The current favicon.ico of Stop Synthetic Filth! wiki zoomed

• The favicon.ico not showing up most of the time was fixed today. Thank you to Vulpix @ #mediawiki for singlehandedly solving this issue. The problem was that the location given for the favicon.ico was interpreted as relative to /wiki/, not root of the site. My appologies, now solved.

• Fixed the mw:Extension:MobileFrontend not having a reasonable default menu. Seems this has been requested for the past 4-5 yrs, with some hacky solutions showing up in searches, solutions that no longer work. I have been searching for a fix so that Special:RecentChanges would show up in the MobileFrontend menu. Thanks to reedy at #mediawiki for filing this ticket T260577 - "Extension:MobileFrontend/MobileMenu seems to be out of date" at WMF's Phabricator. Reedy also suggested that maybe I would like to create a ticket for "Advanced Mode" (which brings up the RC) to be default for anon users. See SSF:About

• The mw:Extension:ConfirmEdit was hastily left unconfigured by me, when we had the problem with spammers. Per default it requires a field "Real name" to be filled and this was not the intention.
