Hi all,
Sorry for cross-posting. Not sure what's the correct address to discuss this.
Almost all of the pages on the ovirt.org wiki that have "Last Updated:", actually have:
Last updated: {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}<!--This is markup for current date, do not change-->
thus showing the current date and not the last change date. When searching google you see the last time its robot happened to fetch the page.
See e.g. [1] for a (possibly non-complete) list.
Not sure if that's intended or not, but I personally find it useless and misleading.
This is indeed useless and wrong and should be removed.
Does this work?
Last updated on {{REVISIONDAY}}/{{REVISIONMONTH}}/{{REVISIONYEAR}} by {{REVISIONUSER}}
If I Edit, then Show preview, it's already updated, even before Save page. I personally find it a bit weird. Anyway, I did this on a test page and it seems to work, but I have to wait a day to make sure the date does not change...
In any case, it does affect performance. Not sure it's very significant, though.
I now changed the following pages (picked up randomly):
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Minimum_guaranteed_memory http://www.ovirt.org/Features/MultiHostNetworkConfiguration http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Node/PluginLiveInstall http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Node/PackageRefactoring http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Automatic_scaling
I changed it to:
Last updated on {{REVISIONYEAR}}-{{REVISIONMONTH}}-{{REVISIONDAY}} by {{REVISIONUSER}}
That is, ISO date.
Better!
But see Dave version, which uses zero-padded day {{REVISIONDAY2}}
Now changed the above pages to this.
If we do not see a significant impact in a few days, we should probably edit all pages, probably with some bot.
I don't see any reason why this should effect performance. The "expensive" warning is about showing revision meta data for another page.
Well, I did meter it and it's somewhat slower. Not sure why. So: anyone with sufficient rights/abilities cares to do the replacement for all other pages? -- Didi
