Description Lars Åge Kamfjord 2010-06-11 12:12:48 UTC
The board of Wikimedia Norway wants to have a private wiki for hosting of internal documents. Not sure what the best way of setting this up, but I'm guessing you already have some private wikis, with 'crats beeing able to remove rights, and blocking/disabling accounts when they're no longer needed...
Comment 1 Casey Brown 2010-07-19 14:43:32 UTC
So you want board.no.wikimedia.org (board_nowikimedia)?  Can you fill in these fields/confirm them to make Rob's job easier?  (Otherwise he'd have to guess at everything and could guess wrong.)

$wgLanguageCode = no
$wgSitename = ? (Board of Wikimedia Norway in Norwegian)
$wgMetaNamespace = ? (the project namespace)
$wgMetaNamespaceTalk = ? (project talk)
$wgBlockDisablesLogin = true;
$wgRemoveGroups['bureaucrat'] = array( 'bot', 'sysop', 'bureaucrat', 'import', 'transwiki');
$wgAddGroups['bureaucrat'] = array( 'bot', 'sysop', 'bureaucrat', 'import', 'transwiki' )

Is that right/do you need anything else?  Rob, I guess you can just use the no.wikimedia logo until they make an additional one.
Comment 2 Lars Åge Kamfjord 2010-07-19 14:46:55 UTC
$wgSitename = 'Wikimedia Norway intern';
$wgMetaNamespace = 'Wikimedia';
$wgMetaNamespaceTalk = 'Wikimedia-diskusjon';

URL should probably be "intern.no.wikimedia.org".
Comment 3 Rob Halsell 2010-07-19 16:58:22 UTC
There is some confusion here, so I do not want to push the wrong thing.

Currently, there are not a lot of chapters doing this, but it makes sense, so I would like to try to get some standard english phrase url working, perhaps like:

country_code.chapters.wikimedia.org?

So no.chapters.wikimedia.org?

This would be for the chapter board and trusted folks or board only?  If the latter, noboard.chapters.wikimedia.org?  We can also put in other redirects if needed.
Comment 4 Lars Åge Kamfjord 2010-07-19 17:03:33 UTC
I think using "internal" is probably better than just "chapters", so "internal.no.wikimedia.org" or "no.internal.wikimedia.org" (the first making it the internal wiki of no, the other would probably crash with the existing internal...). 

Our intention is to not make it board only, but trusted users, for working with things that we can't make public yet (we've used Google Docs until now, but that doesn't really preserve history when the board changes every year).
Comment 5 Roan Kattouw 2010-07-19 17:32:27 UTC
Which domain names to the arbcom wikis use?
Comment 6 Casey Brown 2010-07-19 17:34:32 UTC
(In reply to comment #5)
> Which domain names to the arbcom wikis use?

arbcom-de ‎- http://arbcom.de.wikipedia.org/
arbcom-en - http://arbcom.en.wikipedia.org/
arbcom-fi - http://arbcom.fi.wikipedia.org/
arbcom-nl - http://arbcom.nl.wikipedia.org/
Comment 7 Rob Halsell 2010-07-19 18:37:18 UTC
arbcom is clearly an arbitration committee, internal.no is not obviously a chapter is my concern.

internal.wikimedia.org should still work just fine if no.internal.wikimedia.org started working, but its just not a very consistent naming scheme.
Comment 8 Casey Brown 2010-07-19 18:41:54 UTC
I think code.board.wikimedia.org makes the most sense, even if it's not just board members that are on the wiki.  (Even the Foundation's "BoardWiki" hasn't always been just board members.)
Comment 9 Rob Halsell 2010-07-19 19:44:51 UTC
I think board is equally vague.  If its a private chapter wiki for board and such why not noboard.chapters.wikimedia.org or no.chapters.wikimedia.org?

(I am trying to think of how we can repeat this for other chapters so its clear.)

I guess if no one can agree, we can go with no.board.wikimedia.org.
Comment 10 Lars Åge Kamfjord 2010-07-19 20:48:34 UTC
I have no problem with no.chapters or noboard.chapters, but I prefer noboard, since it says at least something about who has access/what it is for. no.chapters could probably be misread as the official page for the Norwegian Chapter (and when people don't get access to read anything...).
Comment 11 Rob Halsell 2010-07-20 14:35:33 UTC
Ok,

Much thanks to Roan, who re-wrote the script for adding wikis to make it better.

This is all setup, and I added Laaknor as the primary crat/sysop.  If there are any further changes needed, you can re-open this ticket, or add a new one.  (You may want to poke me(RobH) in IRC as well.)  Since this is obviously a private wiki, I do not need consensus or anything like that for changes, and can make them quickly.

(I pointed the logo at nowikimedia for now.)
