[IAEP] Local Labs Wikis was: Re: [Sugar-devel] wiki.sugarlabs.org ongoing maintenance

[Sebastian Silva]

Hi,
When I did maintenance and upgrade of co.sugarlabs.org the only 
difference with the other local labs wikis,
was that it had some extensions related to vandalism prevention:

from LocalSettings.php:

#dirakx para los vandalos
# icarito - File Not Found
#require_once( "$IP/extensions/TitleBlacklist/TitleBlacklist.php" );
require_once( "extensions/CheckUser/CheckUser.php" );
#require_once( "includes/DatabaseFunctions.php" );
require_once( "$IP/extensions/bad-behavior/bad-behavior-mediawiki.php" );

I had to disable the TitleBlacklist extension because I coudn't find it 
and did not have the time to go
fishing for it.

Perhaps this is a good opportunity to study what countermeasures / 
options we have to fix this issue,
which is particularly grave for local labs wikis.

I'm cc'ing Rafael (dirakx) who originally configured these 
countermeasures for co.sl.org.

I'm leaning to think the best option is to copy the pages that are good 
from all {ar, co, cl, pe} wikis
into one single Sugar Labs / Laboratorios Azúcar América Latina instance.

This would reduce the maintenance burden and maybe revitalize / 
consolidate our spanish speaking
community a bit more?

Regards,
Sebastian
