Survey Invite
I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they affect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take no more than 1-2 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.

Your survey Link: http://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9S3JByWf57fXEkR?Q_DL=56np5HpEZWkMlr7_9S3JByWf57fXEkR_MLRP_ermrNYCLZrU5bIp&Q_CHL=gl

I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.

Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs (talk) 11:53, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

Thank you
Hi, thank you for triaging T192047 as high priority issue!

I was afraid I might have annoyed you with T191930 before. Sorry if the reason for re-opening the bug appears to be unnecessarily demanding. I have actually implemented a workaround now, and it does work except for "warning", which coincidentally happens to be at the bottom of the list anyway. I am unsure if this is really a suitable long-term solution, and I'd argue that there might be no good reason to manually implement any other sorting than a strictly alphabetical one, to keep the menu user-friendly and easy to navigate.

Do you think we should coordinate the next Huggle release with the enwiki Huggle config change? Would T191930 likely be part of it, and is there any suggestion on how long I should wait with the config change? We lack testing by an administrator yet; everything that rollbackers can test seems to work so far.

There is a little issue that you might be able to quickly point out to me, knowing how the program works behind the scenes: Huggle 3.5 does not yet detect the presence of shared IP warnings on IP talk pages, or - more likely - my configuration has an error in the last two lines: User:ToBeFree/Huggle-Config-Sandbox.yaml

These lines have been copied from the legacy config and surprisingly worked out of the box... almost.

To me, it looks like "shared-ip-template-tag:" is meant to give Huggle a hint what to look for, and it doesn't find this on IP talk pages even if it is there. The result: Huggle adds the "shared-ip-template", not caring if it has already been added by Twinkle or Huggle. Am I using the YAML syntax wrongly here? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 16:31, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

PS: You might be considering doing the last needed tests and then copying the sandbox content to the original page as a nice-meant gesture. But I'd love to make the enwiki main config update myself -- please let me have that glorious moment of making my update go live. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 16:36, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

PPS: Here's an example of the issue: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:178.202.191.79&oldid=839696657 -- it's not bad, but it's not perfect yet either. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 16:38, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello, there is no need to apologize for creation of tickets, I don't know what is Huggle 3.5, do you mean 3.3.5? Did it work in previous versions and if yes, in which version? Next Huggle release is quite major update (3.4.0) and will happen probably in weeks (or months?) so I don't know if you should wait for it. Legacy Huggle was using its own syntax for config, new version is using YAML, there are many syntax validators available out there. Petrb (talk) 18:06, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh, I meant 3.3.5! I originally wrote a long explanation here, but I noticed that the problem has been magically solved! It has probably been a caching issue.
 * Original problem: This duplicate addition of the shared-ip-template.
 * Today I tried again, and the issue did not happen again.
 * ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:58, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
 * For the English Wikipedia (and thus for me), T191930 has been solved by your tip. Thanks again! Emoji_u1f603.svg
 * About the Huggle release, unless the re-sorting of the welcome message list has any effect on keyboard shortcuts, I think that I won't specifically wait for 3.4.0. All problems have been nicely solved! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:25, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

Mats Valk
Hello! I see you reverted an edit here although the edit was constructive - it just brought the information up to date - as you can see here. I know that 84.106.82.192 is rather disruptive at times, but this seems to be a false positive. I'm going to restore 84.106.82.192's edit. Just FYI, in case you're wondering what's going on. Yours, Judith Sunrise (talk) 16:56, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Interesting, I preventively reverted all edits made by that IP, because all of them with this exception were pure vandalism, so I assumed this one was vandalism as well. Petrb (talk) 18:45, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Config
Hi. I downloaded Huggle's source code (tar.gz). I tried to run "huggle3-qt-lx/configure". It shows this:

/Users/??/Downloads/huggle3-qt-lx/configure ; exit; ??-MacBook-Air:~ ??$ /Users/??/Downloads/huggle3-qt-lx/configure ; exit; Checking all required packages... Checking for cmake... [OK] The libirc directories are missing! Fixing by using a backup file... /Users/??/Downloads/huggle3-qt-lx/configure: line 207: cd: src/3rd: No such file or directory logout Saving session... ...copying shared history... ...saving history...truncating history files... ...completed. [Process completed] Is the "libirc" related to the IRC inside Huggle (which I asked in Feedback a week ago)? ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus  (talk to me) 09:21, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
 * However, when I tried Huggle 3.3.0 the irc works fine (can show who’s online) lol. ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus  (talk to me) 09:41, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I tested versions 3.3.0, 3.3.1, 3.3.2, 3.3.3, 3.3.4, 3.3.5. From 3.3.0 to 3.3.3, I still can see online users, but from 3.3.4 onwards, it didn't show up, so I think that the problem is between versions 3.3.3 and 3.3.4. Thanks. ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus  (talk to me) 11:34, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
 * OK, anyway that configure script needs to be started from terminal while active directory is Huggle's repo. Petrb (talk) 14:01, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Javascript extension
Hi Petr, regarding this, I would like to request a script that can notify you when receiving notices (thank or article reviewed) or someone's ping? I don't know if that's possible. Thanks. ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus  (talk to me) 10:57, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I will try to make that. Petrb (talk) 15:54, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Huggle feature
I also wonder if normal edits can be performed in Huggle. It would be much convenient. ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus  (talk to me) 11:07, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, in latest beta you can do that Petrb (talk) 16:51, 6 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I’ll try that ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus  (talk to me) 21:23, 6 July 2018 (UTC)

Traffic counter extension
Hi Petr I just checked out the traffic counter extension you made. It was pretty good. However, I found that the overlay box is a bit dumb. I think that Huggle users have a certain level of concern regarding the network traffic Huggle is using (because of the huge queue of edits). Can it be an official feature of Huggle rather be an extension? It should be best located at right hand side of the bottom bar (Processing X edits and X queries). Thanks. ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus  (talk to me) 06:37, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
 * The problem here is that it's not accurate, that's why it's just an extension. Some of the traffic is compressed and encrypted. The calculated size is size of decrypted and uncompressed packets only. So given that it's not giving you exact traffic usage as seen by OS, I decided not to put it to main interface so that people don't complain about it not being accurate if compared by some OS tools for traffic monitoring. Petrb (talk) 08:38, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Ok understood. How about moving it to the bottom bar? As I've said, it looks dumb and too big. ~ Abelmoschus Esculentus  (talk to me) 08:55, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Here is versin for you: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Huggle/JS/traffic_status.js it looks pretty ugly on low res screens though, because it doesn't fit to status bar size. You will need to get latest nightly build for it to work. Petrb (talk) 12:43, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

About your comment here.

How you feel about racism or what is "evil" has no place on an article talk page. Your speculations about how some group might perceive editorial choices, has no place on an article talk page.

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic.

Huggle 3.4.4
Hi Petrb,

If, for simplicity, I delete an underside of an article with Huggle using the Control + D key, because the content of the page was nonsense (for example ), then the discussion page of the main article automatically becomes „Page dependent on a non-existent or deleted page“. Can this be turned off by the software? Greetings and thanks. Regi51 (talk) 18:59, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello, what exactly do you mean by "underside" of an article? You mean the subpage /Staffel_12? You say that when you want to delete a subpage, Huggle also deletes the talk page of root page? If yes, that is a bug. Petrb (talk) 11:38, 28 August 2018 (UTC)

Huggle on svwiki
Meanwhile on svwiki, other users has told me on my svwiki talk page that they are not happy with how Huggle interact with their manual updates of user pages with warning signs, after they get blocked etc. A somewhat difficault problem to illustrate, maybe you can see the discussion through some kind of translation. I may in short time be able to relate to those problems better, so far I didnt use Huggle during the last day, before I get confirmed, that the other users do not view my Huggling, as abuse of the svwiki. Initially, I have tried to modify warning 1, but have not made further. Its a bit strange this issue comes up now, after Huggle has ben used on svwiki since over 8 years?

WM-Bot
Hey Peter, big fan :) So, a couple of years ago, I added WM-Bot to #cvn-wp-fa (and it helped our patrollers big time). back then, I was using my old wiki username (and thus, my old cloak). I changed my username and my cloak and forgot about the problems that it might cause in IRC. Now, I can't use the bot since it's registered to my old cloak as admin. Is there any way this can be resolved? --Arian (talk) 08:17, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

"It looks like you were logged out of MediaWiki for some reason"
Hi, I thought I'd reach out to you directly (my earlier issue was resolved).

Whenever I log into Huggle, I always constantly get a popup titled "Please enter your password" and it also says "It looks like you were logged out of MediaWiki for some reason." I enter my password to relog but the popup always reappears; it is 100% a bug. I've tried everything - restarting, uninstalling/reinstalling, using a different version, etc, but to no avail. Could you please help me out? I really don't want to stop my use of Huggle over this glitch. Hummerrocket  (talk)  00:13, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello, this information about you being logged out doesn't come from Huggle, but from MediaWiki, and MW doesn't share anything about the reason why you were logged out - that's why Huggle says "for some reason" - it has no idea why it happened, only MediaWiki knows that. Only thing we can do here is to run a query dump to gather RAW traffic exchanged between Huggle and MediaWiki, you can do that by passing parameter --qd to Huggle, a file called querydump.dat will be created in a working directory of Huggle that contains dump of traffic, based on this dump it may be possible to investigate what's going on, or eventually raise a bug on phabricator against MediaWiki. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Huggle/Debugging Petrb (talk) 08:28, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Just following up, could you provide more context on how to pass the parameter --qd to Huggle? What is the command to run Huggle from the command line? Is it huggle --qd? I can't find this information anywhere in the documentation. I tried using Huggle yesterday and it worked fine, but this morning I have the same infinite loop. Hummerrocket   (talk)  15:52, 8 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi, I totally agree this should be better documented, in 2016 I created a phab task to improve this https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T150056 and in 4 years nobody had time to do it :( in Windows starting a program with custom paramters is a bit more complicated than UNIX platforms, most simple way is to create or copy a shortcut to the program (eg. copy what you have in start menu somewhere) then edit shortcut and change the path - wrap whole path to .exe in quotes and then after the quotes add space and --qd (also -v could help). If this works for you, maybe you can even create screenshots of whole process and help other users in the future who have this question.

 * Hello, you can do that in preferences -> shortcut, but before you open preferences, click the drop down menu and check what number is this one, each revert item has some number. Then in preferences assign a shortcut for revert and warn for that number. Petrb (talk) 07:40, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

"Sound debug menu", or: I can't figure out the deal with Huggle
I am trying to write a (fairly minor, in the scheme of things) script for Huggle, which plays sounds when certain things happen (a revert is made, a notification is received, et cetera). I notice that in the scripting guide, it mentions that you can use "huggle.play_file" to play a sound. However, when I put this in my script, nothing happens. I tried to look up the definition of that function in the Huggle repository, which sent me on a bizarre wild goose chase. I also noticed that there's an item in the preferences to play a sound when a new revision comes in... which seems to be unimplemented? I couldn't find anything being called from that in the source code, either (and of course, it plays no sound when I have it enabled; I'm using Huggle on Snap, on Fedora 32). The closest thing I found to a clue was that you made a commit several months ago to implement a sound debug menu... do you know anything about sound in Huggle? jp×g 03:44, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello, yes the debug sound menu, which you can access when you start huggle with verbosity > 0 (pass argument -v) allows you to test if sounds actually work. The problem is that correct cross-platform sound implementation is a bit tricky and may not always work on all platforms and this debug menu can help you determine if sound is actually working in your installation. If it doesn't make any sound, then it doesn't work and that explains why you script does nothing. The problem is - when sound subsystem doesn't work, even Huggle doesn't know it's not working :) so that's why there is this debug menu. Regarding the source code: JS function play_file is callback to this C++ function https://github.com/huggle/huggle3-qt-lx/blob/master/src/huggle_core/scripting/hugglejs.cpp#L265 which calls this function https://github.com/huggle/huggle3-qt-lx/blob/master/src/huggle_core/resources.cpp#L121 which plays sound using QMediaPlayer. But yes there is definitely a room for improvement, I can see that these ifdefs under certain circumstances lead to NOOP code, which should at least emit some warning, so that whoever makes the script is aware of this. Also keep in mind that only PlayEmbeddedSoundFile is exposed by default, if you want to play external file, you need to allow execution of "unsafe scripts" (there is option in Huggle preferences for it), when you enable this option, all scripts will be exposed to many new functions under huggle_unsafe class name that allow manipulation of filesystem, playing external sound files etc. Petrb (talk) 14:24, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I see you already want to use play_file, so in that case make sure that you have unsafe execution enabled. Petrb (talk) 14:27, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

Huggle: Question (speedy deletes)
Hello, yesterday I set an speedy delete via Huggle and probably ticked "Notify page creator". The block then apparently ended up with another user, who seems very piqued about it. Since all the explanations as to how this could happen are so far only speculation, the question: How could this happen/Where did I fail? Is it possible at all with such a notification module to choose who the notification should go to within the scope of an speedy delete-Request via Huggle? Regards--Quintil Jan Verus (talk) 18:59, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello, can you give me some more clues - which page was being speedy deleted? Which user did the notification come to? Who was the actual creator? Thanks Petrb (talk) 08:04, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, of course. "Christopher J Silva" was the speedy deleted page (See Log). The page was created by "Chrisxx247" (See Log). The page was created by the User 2 times and has been 2 times speedy deleted; i was involved in the second request on 2nd October only, when the notification came to the User "Mme Mimimi" (as linked above), who had edited the deleted page 2 or three time a short time before i put my speedy delete + notification via huggle. Thanks--Quintil Jan Verus (talk) 10:58, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi Quintil I am sorry for late responses, yes, this is definitely a bug in Huggle, in speedyform.cpp on line 200 we are messaging user who created edit on which the whole flow was based on, instead of actual creator of the page. I think this bug went unnoticed for long time because in most cases of speedy deletion only edits to page that is about to get deleted are done by its creator.
