[Wiki] Ref Tags Don't Work

[miwilc]

It appears to be that the <ref></ref> tags are not working on the wiki, do I need to manually add footnotes? (which seems like too much work )

 

Or am I doing something wrong.

 

To provide context, I was creating a wiki page for setting up flask based on the forum post by Krydos which I wanted to add a footnote to the original post.

We don't have that functionality. It's not part of MediaWiki, but rather an extension called Cite that we don't have.

 

http://wiki.helionet.org/Special:Version (it would show here if we had it).

I could probably install that extension, but that would likely involve upgrading our undoubtedly ancient mediawiki install. I'll put it on the todo list, but don't expect it to have a particularly high priority level.

Thanks by the way. I meant to write that, but haven't gotten around to it. My post about piping an email to a script should probably have a wiki page at some point too. It's really awesome that you're helping out like this miwilc.

I noticed, but shouldn't it be better to upgrade to a LTS version, for the security fixes if nothing else?

 

Also it would probably be easy to revert the changes from a backup.

It's nice to give back to the community

 

P.S: Can I have the link to post you mentioned? I can't seem to find it

This post about how to start and stop infinite loop scripts might be useful to have a wiki page too https://www.helionet.org/index/topic/29129-python-script-behavior/?p=132451

I'll start working on a draft for this, I'll push both on Monday or next weekend, hopefully
