== Open issues ==

Below is a list of "issues" which would ordinarily be in a ticketing system of some kind, but are here on the Wiki instead, because that's how we roll. As things are resolved, they will be moved to the Discussion page. If there's an appeal or an issue, the conversation can continue there - this page will be for open issues.

Use of case in URLS / links. I went through all the electronic format types pages, and tried to normalise all the pages where I could (there was a mix of link structures - I've tried to get them all (apart from animation - I've been at it all day!) so they are [[file extension]] - [[file type name]].
I notice that we have a mix of upper and lower case file extension through out. This means we may have 2 links which should point to the same URL (e.g. [[mix]] and [[MIX]]) is this a known issue with the current layout? --[[User:JaygattusoNLNZ|JaygattusoNLNZ]] ([[User talk:JaygattusoNLNZ|talk]]) 01:32, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
:Since you're linking both the extension and the name, does that mean that there are supposed to be separate articles for each? I don't know if there's really a need for "mainspace" articles by extension, since there are already categories for that purpose; you can browse them through [[:Category:File formats by extension]]. [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 02:12, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
::I just copied the most common model that I found on the formats pages. The problem is, if you don't homogenize the method, the linking/crosslinking doesn't work properly. All instances of .doc (for example) should point to the same resource page / disambiguation page. If someone has linked to only format in one place (e.g. [[MS Word]] (.doc)), and someone else the extension (MS Word - [[doc]]), we can't makes sure they point to the same place. The problem occurs because format names and extensions are used interchangeably. You raise an interesting question about the relationship between the ext and the format name. I would argue they are not equal (1:1), nor (1:many) / (many:1) so it makes sense to protect both aspects as definable things - the extension because that's whats most commonly searched for and referred to by users and 'format name' because its more accurate. How is the [[:Category:File formats by extension]] populated? --[[User:JaygattusoNLNZ|JaygattusoNLNZ]] ([[User talk:JaygattusoNLNZ|talk]]) 18:31, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

JaygattusoNLNZ: /* Headers and ontologies */

=== Time zone setting ===

OK, to get this community portal going... is this the place to report issues with the wiki server configuration? Anyway, its time-zone setting seems to be a bit odd. It's set (apparently) to UTC + 4 hours (somewhere in Asia?), but it thinks it's in UTC, so if you set up your user configuration to adjust it to your local time zone, it ends up 4 hours off. I had to use "-08:00" to get my current EDT time. (That will change by one hour in a week or two when Daylight Saving Time ends.) [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 22:23, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

: I just set it to EST. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 23:19, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

::Seems to work now, but perhaps as a side effect, now I don't see any new changes after around 6 PM (EST) in the Recent Changes function. [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 03:04, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

::: Oh, I am SURE the time change annoyed the Wiki. It'll work out. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 06:22, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

=== index.php ===

The Wiki is obviously working (yay), but it would be nice if the MediaWiki .htaccess file was [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/Apache adjusted] so that the index.php disappears from wiki URLs.

:It's a minor aesthetic thing, but I happily have made those changes. It should be /wiki/ from now on. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 23:30, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Licensing ===

I'm not lawyer but I don't think declaring the content here Public Domain (US) as discussed in the [[FAQ]] will have desirable consequences outside the United States. It's been my experience working with datasets published by the US federal government that people outside the US are uncertain about whether or not they can use the data. I think using CC0 would be preferable to just saying Public Domain, if you really want to encourage reuse. [[User:Edsu|Edsu]] ([[User talk:Edsu|talk]]) 14:26, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

: Public Domain is Public Domain in the US and in many countries. It is trivial for someone to take this public domain wiki and turn it into a bestselling novel, a screensaver, a movie starring Christian Bale, a CC0-licensed Wiki, a GFDL-licensed wiki, or a floor wax. So in the future, if it needs to be the case that someone wants to take this work and convert it randomly to a new format, the openness of a full public-domain-declared wiki will work for them. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 06:22, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

:: I got talked into CC0. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 19:02, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Using templates ===

I'm a newbie with Mediawiki. Could someone add a quick help note about using the templates for this site?
--[[User:Phillipkent|Phillipkent]] ([[User talk:Phillipkent|talk]]) 14:34, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
: Mediawiki site has extensive info about that: http://www.mediawiki.org/ [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 23:03, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Using bots ===
I am working on a bot that hoovers all file format extensions and have it create pages for them in the "ext" namespace. More bots are welcome for gardening, any ideas??? Also see http://justsolve.archiveteam.org/api.php for inspiration [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 22:51, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
:How do you figure out what in a page is a file extension? Does an infobox have to be filled in correctly? [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 23:29, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
:: If the template formatinfo is filled in correctly, the bot uses that, otherwise text is parsed with regex. Pronom signature files are parsed locally to check if the extension is known. That is my plan for version 0.0001 [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 23:36, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
::: [[Template:FormatInfo]] for people unfamiliar with this template [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 23:48, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
:So I assume the articles themselves should not be the file extension but some more descriptive string? Like [[Adobe Photoshop]] instead of [[PSD]], or [[ScreamTracker 3]] instead of [[S3M]]? --[[User:Darkstar|Darkstar]] ([[User talk:Darkstar|talk]]) 03:12, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
::Yes, that would be easiest for the bot to pick up. I also started adding categories, not only for better navigation, but to create some kind of [[Ontology]] as well like ''Thing > Physical Format > Video > Cassette > VHS''. The nav headers are also very useful for that. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 13:39, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
: Bender the bot has finished its first run of pages with extensions and their corresponding PUIDs: http://justsolve.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&hidebots=0
[[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 19:28, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Headers and ontologies ===
For a while, people were adding "breadcrumb" headers linking to the ontology levels above the current page. Then they were removing those headers in favor of just using the ontology links in the format infoboxes. Now they seem to be adding the breadcrumbs back. Which style is actually the "official" standard here? [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 21:31, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
:Well, there's no improvement yet... there are still people adding breadcrumbs and people removing them, so I have no idea whose style to follow. [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 07:02, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
:: I like to use categories, as breadcrumbs are ugly and tedious to add and maintain and suggest we use categories as it is the official (?) policy on Wikipedia. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:21, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
::: I am comfortable with both being on any page during this period, and then a cleanup operating being done down the line. As soon as categories and infoboxes have a better consistency, Breadcrumbs are doomed. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 06:24, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Additions and suggestions ===
(This is probably the wrong place for this but I figured here was a good start...)
:Is there a place for a new template object - signature or magic number? e.g. jpg has ÿØÿè as a highly dependable BOF marker.
:: this has already been researched extensively, please read [[PRONOM]]. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:17, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
:::I'm not sure a hop to PRONOM helps. If the point of this wiki is to aggregate data about formats, we should consider surfacing signature info directly, and linking the reference back to PRONOM. At the moment the main identifying characteristic of a "format" is not visible on the main record page for that format... --[[User:JaygattusoNLNZ|JaygattusoNLNZ]] ([[User talk:JaygattusoNLNZ|talk]]) 02:06, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
::: Although it would be a good idea to to just that and create a form of registry. The wiki API can output several formats, eg. xml. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:37, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
:::: First experimental page: [[Registry:fmt/111]] [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 05:36, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
::::: It's a shame that the pages would be named after something as opaque as a number, but I don't know how you'd get around that... But I'd recommend, if possible, to create a field containing only the literal hexadecimal byte values, instead of the hodgepodge of regex abbreviations. And if you add categories based on the magic numbers, then someone could generate a finite state machine that serves as a file format identifier. Just thinking out loud here. [[User:Gphemsley|Gphemsley]] ([[User talk:Gphemsley|talk]]) 05:08, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
:::::: Agree about the regex hodgepodge. This is an experiment, so all input is welcome! Did you mean a finite state something like http://justsolve.archiveteam.org/wiki/ByteSequence:0/d0cf11e0a1b11ae1 ? [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 19:40, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

===Harvesting resources===
IMHO it would be a good idea to harvest all webpages which are linked in the resource sections. Of course we have Wayback, but, but, but? ... [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:15, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

: At the end of the month (and perhaps periodically thereafter) Archiveteam will be doing a deep focused crawl of all the sites linked from this wiki, and passing it off to the Wayback Machine at archive.org. [[User:Chronomex|Chronomex]] ([[User talk:Chronomex|talk]]) 05:36, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

:: Nice, thanks for the info. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 09:59, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

== Stream compression formats ==

A stream format takes a stream of bytes, and outputs a different, hopefully smaller, stream of bytes. These compression formats are often used internally in other data structures to compress data, as well as in network protocols, such as http. Used stand-alone, a stream compression format does not offer archiving capability, however in the UNIX doctrine, an archiver like [[tar]] can be combined with an archive format to produce a proper compressed archive.

Disk Image Formats

2012-11-20T00:16:11Z

JaygattusoNLNZ: /* Forensics formats */

[[File Formats]] > [[Electronic File Formats]] > [[Disk Image Formats]]

File systems and other file formats described on this page's parent page describe entities that exist on disks as they would normally used.

However, there are also file formats that allow a physical disk to be "imaged" into a file, either to re-copied onto a physical disk later, or else used by an *emulator* of the computer system that would have originally.

These file formats represent a data image of one of the physical floppy disk formats. In addition to the raw data from the disk, these formats may contain metadata that the corresponding emulator environment uses to correctly access the data.

Typically, when archiving a physical disk for later use, a physical disk will be imaged into one of these file formats. Sub-pages of this page should contain information on the format itself as well as instructions on how to extract a physical disk into that disk image format, including information about what physical drives are required, what software to use and how and what OS that is run under.

See also [[ROM and memory images]] for images of memory, and [[Floppy disk]]s for the physical floppies.

==Floppy Disk Image Formats==
Images created directly from floppy disks.
===Generic Sector Images===
* raw [[IMG]] (ie, created with dd)

* [[G64]] C64 raw (GCR coded) disk image
* [[NIB]] C64 "nibbler" format (created by mnib)

* [[DSK (CPCEMU)|DSK]] (CPCEMU disc image), used for Amstrad and related discs (typically 3" discs)

===Physical (Hardware) Images===
* [[IPF]] (Software Preservation Society image format)
* [[DRAFT]] (Also from Software Preservation Society, intermediate format)

==Optical Disc Image Formats==

Java is a programming language originally developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems (which has since merged into Oracle Corporation) and released in 1995 as a core component of Sun Microsystems' Java platform. The language derives much of its syntax from C and C++, but it has fewer low-level facilities than either of them. Java applications are typically compiled to bytecode (class file) that can run on any Java virtual machine (JVM) regardless of computer architecture. Java is a general-purpose, concurrent, class-based, object-oriented language that is specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. It is intended to let application developers "write once, run anywhere" (WORA), meaning that code that runs on one platform does not need to be recompiled to run on another.

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language.

Though Perl is not officially an acronym,[4] there are various backronyms in use, such as: Practical Extraction and Reporting Language.[5] Perl was originally developed by Larry Wall in 1987 as a general-purpose Unix scripting language to make report processing easier.

PHP is a widely-used general-purpose open source scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.

While PHP originally stood for Personal Home Page, it is now said to stand for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, a recursive acronym

PHP files are often found as text files with the extension .php

MATLAB® is a high-level language and interactive environment for numerical computation, visualization, and programming. Using MATLAB, you can analyze data, develop algorithms, and create models and applications. The language, tools, and built-in math functions enable you to explore multiple approaches and reach a solution faster than with spreadsheets or traditional programming languages, such as C/C++ or Java™.

Released by Mathworks

Code for matlab scripts are generally text files with the file extension .m

'''Source code''' is the program code of a [[Programming Languages|programming language]] as stored in a computer's memory or in a file or other storage medium (programs have been stored on [[cassette]]s, [[punched card]]s, and many other media). Except in interpreted languages (like BASIC) which execute the program directly from the source, source code needs to be compiled or assembled into [[executables]] in the target machine code (possibly passing through intermediate stages of object code needing to be linked or code in some intermediary language that is in turn compiled, assembled or interpreted).

Most of the time, program source code is stored as plain text (in a [[Character Encoding|character encoding]]), so it can be viewed or edited in any text viewer or editor, though programmer-oriented development environments offer enhanced features such as language-specific syntax highlighting and integrated access to compilers. However, there are also some specialized source code formats that do not use plain text, instead doing some sort of tokenization to the keywords and syntactic elements of the language. This was more common on early computers that had much more limited memory, disk space, and bandwidth than the present ones.

JaygattusoNLNZ: /* what about 'straddling' formats? */ new section

in this list (http://justsolve.archiveteam.org/index.php/Graphics) JPG is listed as a BMP format. I would argue its not a bit mapped image format. Raster yes, bmp no....

:Does 'Raster' need to be a separate category then? [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 07:36, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

:Is this distinction (which I understand from a technical point of view, I should add) really relevant enough to warrant a separate category? Perhaps the solution is to rename the whole category to raster graphics formats? --[[User:Nitro2k01|Nitro2k01]] ([[User talk:Nitro2k01|talk]]) 12:41, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

:I'd support renaming category to Raster. [[User:swanQ|swanQ]]

:: Done. -- [[User:Rhetoric X|Rhetoric X]] ([[User talk:Rhetoric X|talk]]) 19:40, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

== (JPEG2000 code stream) ==

I've moved this into 'raster' (from unclassified).
Argument: if its a the graphics aspect we care about its a raster image, if its the code stream, it might actually be a data object, not graphics.

== Container formats - does they belong here? ==
e.g. PDF, RIFF
Argument: its a container/structure format, not a graphics format. If PDF belongs, why not MS DOC, or .RAR? 2nd Argument (PDF): If it does belong here, is it raster or vector? I would suggest that it 'vectors' the objects, which themselves are raster/vector (not sure PDF supports the embedding of vector types?)

== what about 'straddling' formats? ==

PNG and PS could be argued into either or both camps. PS files are output as raster objects, but contained inside the file object as vector objects (as I understand it..) and I think PNG is in a similar position. Are we classifying the input or output object...

JaygattusoNLNZ: /* Containers - does they belong in graphics? */

in this list (http://justsolve.archiveteam.org/index.php/Graphics) JPG is listed as a BMP format. I would argue its not a bit mapped image format. Raster yes, bmp no....

:Does 'Raster' need to be a separate category then? [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 07:36, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

:Is this distinction (which I understand from a technical point of view, I should add) really relevant enough to warrant a separate category? Perhaps the solution is to rename the whole category to raster graphics formats? --[[User:Nitro2k01|Nitro2k01]] ([[User talk:Nitro2k01|talk]]) 12:41, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

:I'd support renaming category to Raster. [[User:swanQ|swanQ]]

:: Done. -- [[User:Rhetoric X|Rhetoric X]] ([[User talk:Rhetoric X|talk]]) 19:40, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

== (JPEG2000 code stream) ==

I've moved this into 'raster' (from unclassified).
Argument: if its a the graphics aspect we care about its a raster image, if its the code stream, it might actually be a data object, not graphics.

== Container formats - does they belong here? ==
e.g. PDF, RIFF
Argument: its a container/structure format, not a graphics format. 2nd Argument: If it does belong here, is it raster or vector? I would suggest that it 'vectors' the objects, which themselves are raster/vector (not sure PDF supports the embedding of vector types? ditto RIFF...)

Just Solve the File Format Problem talk:Community portal

2012-11-19T18:25:12Z

JaygattusoNLNZ: /* Additions and suggestions */

=== Time zone setting ===

OK, to get this community portal going... is this the place to report issues with the wiki server configuration? Anyway, its time-zone setting seems to be a bit odd. It's set (apparently) to UTC + 4 hours (somewhere in Asia?), but it thinks it's in UTC, so if you set up your user configuration to adjust it to your local time zone, it ends up 4 hours off. I had to use "-08:00" to get my current EDT time. (That will change by one hour in a week or two when Daylight Saving Time ends.) [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 22:23, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

: I just set it to EST. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 23:19, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

::Seems to work now, but perhaps as a side effect, now I don't see any new changes after around 6 PM (EST) in the Recent Changes function. [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 03:04, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

::: Oh, I am SURE the time change annoyed the Wiki. It'll work out. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 06:22, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

=== index.php ===

The Wiki is obviously working (yay), but it would be nice if the MediaWiki .htaccess file was [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/Apache adjusted] so that the index.php disappears from wiki URLs.

:It's a minor aesthetic thing, but I happily have made those changes. It should be /wiki/ from now on. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 23:30, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Licensing ===

I'm not lawyer but I don't think declaring the content here Public Domain (US) as discussed in the [[FAQ]] will have desirable consequences outside the United States. It's been my experience working with datasets published by the US federal government that people outside the US are uncertain about whether or not they can use the data. I think using CC0 would be preferable to just saying Public Domain, if you really want to encourage reuse. [[User:Edsu|Edsu]] ([[User talk:Edsu|talk]]) 14:26, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

: Public Domain is Public Domain in the US and in many countries. It is trivial for someone to take this public domain wiki and turn it into a bestselling novel, a screensaver, a movie starring Christian Bale, a CC0-licensed Wiki, a GFDL-licensed wiki, or a floor wax. So in the future, if it needs to be the case that someone wants to take this work and convert it randomly to a new format, the openness of a full public-domain-declared wiki will work for them. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 06:22, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Using templates ===

I'm a newbie with Mediawiki. Could someone add a quick help note about using the templates for this site?
--[[User:Phillipkent|Phillipkent]] ([[User talk:Phillipkent|talk]]) 14:34, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
: Mediawiki site has extensive info about that: http://www.mediawiki.org/ [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 23:03, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Using bots ===
I am working on a bot that hoovers all file format extensions and have it create pages for them in the "ext" namespace. More bots are welcome for gardening, any ideas??? Also see http://justsolve.archiveteam.org/api.php for inspiration [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 22:51, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
:How do you figure out what in a page is a file extension? Does an infobox have to be filled in correctly? [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 23:29, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
:: If the template formatinfo is filled in correctly, the bot uses that, otherwise text is parsed with regex. Pronom signature files are parsed locally to check if the extension is known. That is my plan for version 0.0001 [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 23:36, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
::: [[Template:FormatInfo]] for people unfamiliar with this template [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 23:48, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
:So I assume the articles themselves should not be the file extension but some more descriptive string? Like [[Adobe Photoshop]] instead of [[PSD]], or [[ScreamTracker 3]] instead of [[S3M]]? --[[User:Darkstar|Darkstar]] ([[User talk:Darkstar|talk]]) 03:12, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
::Yes, that would be easiest for the bot to pick up. I also started adding categories, not only for better navigation, but to create some kind of [[Ontology]] as well like ''Thing > Physical Format > Video > Cassette > VHS''. The nav headers are also very useful for that. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 13:39, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
: Bender the bot has finished its first run of pages with extensions and their corresponding PUIDs: http://justsolve.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&hidebots=0
[[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 19:28, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Headers and ontologies ===
For a while, people were adding "breadcrumb" headers linking to the ontology levels above the current page. Then they were removing those headers in favor of just using the ontology links in the format infoboxes. Now they seem to be adding the breadcrumbs back. Which style is actually the "official" standard here? [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 21:31, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
:Well, there's no improvement yet... there are still people adding breadcrumbs and people removing them, so I have no idea whose style to follow. [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 07:02, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
:: I like to use categories, as breadcrumbs are ugly and tedious to add and maintain and suggest we use categories as it is the official (?) policy on Wikipedia. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:21, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
::: I am comfortable with both being on any page during this period, and then a cleanup operating being done down the line. As soon as categories and infoboxes have a better consistency, Breadcrumbs are doomed. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 06:24, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Additions and suggestions ===
(This is probably the wrong place for this but I figured here was a good start...)
:Is there a place for a new template object - signature or magic number? e.g. jpg has ÿØÿè as a highly dependable BOF marker.
:: this has already been researched extensively, please read [[PRONOM]]. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:17, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
:::I'm not sure a hop to PRONOM helps. If the point of this wiki is to aggregate data about formats, we should consider surfacing signature info directly, and linking the reference back to PRONOM. At the moment the main identifying characteristic of a "format" is not visible on the main record page...
::: Although it would be a good idea to to just that and create a form of registry. The wiki API can output several formats, eg. xml. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:37, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
:::: First experimental page: [[Registry:fmt/111]] [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 05:36, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
::::: It's a shame that the pages would be named after something as opaque as a number, but I don't know how you'd get around that... But I'd recommend, if possible, to create a field containing only the literal hexadecimal byte values, instead of the hodgepodge of regex abbreviations. And if you add categories based on the magic numbers, then someone could generate a finite state machine that serves as a file format identifier. Just thinking out loud here. [[User:Gphemsley|Gphemsley]] ([[User talk:Gphemsley|talk]]) 05:08, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

===Harvesting resources===
IMHO it would be a good idea to harvest all webpages which are linked in the resource sections. Of course we have Wayback, but, but, but? ... [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:15, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

: At the end of the month (and perhaps periodically thereafter) Archiveteam will be doing a deep focused crawl of all the sites linked from this wiki, and passing it off to the Wayback Machine at archive.org. [[User:Chronomex|Chronomex]] ([[User talk:Chronomex|talk]]) 05:36, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

:: Nice, thanks for the info. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 09:59, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

The Wiki is obviously working (yay), but it would be nice if the MediaWiki .htaccess file was [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/Apache adjusted] so that the index.php disappears from wiki URLs.

=== Licensing ===

I'm not lawyer but I don't think declaring the content here Public Domain (US) as discussed in the [[FAQ]] will have desirable consequences outside the United States. It's been my experience working with datasets published by the US federal government that people outside the US are uncertain about whether or not they can use the data. I think using CC0 would be preferable to just saying Public Domain, if you really want to encourage reuse. [[User:Edsu|Edsu]] ([[User talk:Edsu|talk]]) 14:26, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

: Public Domain is Public Domain in the US and in many countries. It is trivial for someone to take this public domain wiki and turn it into a bestselling novel, a screensaver, a movie starring Christian Bale, a CC0-licensed Wiki, a GFDL-licensed wiki, or a floor wax. So in the future, if it needs to be the case that someone wants to take this work and convert it randomly to a new format, the openness of a full public-domain-declared wiki will work for them. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 06:22, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Using templates ===

I'm a newbie with Mediawiki. Could someone add a quick help note about using the templates for this site?

=== Using bots ===
I am working on a bot that hoovers all file format extensions and have it create pages for them in the "ext" namespace. More bots are welcome for gardening, any ideas???

:: If the template formatinfo is filled in correctly, the bot uses that, otherwise text is parsed with regex. Pronom signature files are parsed locally to check if the extension is known.

::Yes, that would be easiest for the bot to pick up. I also started adding categories, not only for better navigation, but to create some kind of [[Ontology]] as well like ''Thing > Physical Format > Video > Cassette > VHS''. The nav headers are also very useful for that. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 13:39, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

=== Headers and ontologies ===
For a while, people were adding "breadcrumb" headers linking to the ontology levels above the current page. Then they were removing those headers in favor of just using the ontology links in the format infoboxes. Now they seem to be adding the breadcrumbs back. Which style is actually the "official" standard here? [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 21:31, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
:Well, there's no improvement yet... there are still people adding breadcrumbs and people removing them, so I have no idea whose style to follow. [[User:Dan Tobias|Dan Tobias]] ([[User talk:Dan Tobias|talk]]) 07:02, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
:: I like to use categories, as breadcrumbs are ugly and tedious to add and maintain and suggest we use categories as it is the official (?) policy on Wikipedia. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:21, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
::: I am comfortable with both being on any page during this period, and then a cleanup operating being done down the line. As soon as categories and infoboxes have a better consistency, Breadcrumbs are doomed. --[[User:Jason Scott|Jason Scott]] ([[User talk:Jason Scott|talk]]) 06:24, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

:::I'm not sure that helps. If the point of this wiki is to aggregate data about formats, we should consider surfacing signature info directly, and linking the reference back to PRONOM. At the moment the main identifying characteristic of a "format" is not visible on the mao record page...
::: Although it would be a good idea to to just that and create a form of registry. The wiki API can output several formats, eg. xml. [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:37, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

::::: It's a shame that the pages would be named after something as opaque as a number, but I don't know how you'd get around that... But I'd recommend, if possible, to create a field containing only the literal hexadecimal byte values, instead of the hodgepodge of regex abbreviations. And if you add categories based on the magic numbers, then someone could generate a finite state machine that serves as a file format identifier. Just thinking out loud here.

===Harvesting resources===
IMHO it would be a good idea to harvest all webpages which are linked in the resource sections. Of course we have Wayback, but, but, but? ... [[User:Maurice.de.rooij|Maurice.de.rooij]] ([[User talk:Maurice.de.rooij|talk]]) 04:15, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

: At the end of the month (and perhaps periodically thereafter) Archiveteam will be doing a deep focused crawl of all the sites linked from this wiki, and passing it off to the Wayback Machine at archive.org. [[User:Chronomex|Chronomex]] ([[User talk:Chronomex|talk]]) 05:36, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

Just Solve the File Format Problem:Community portal

2012-11-12T07:33:30Z

JaygattusoNLNZ:

= Issues =

Below is a list of "issues" which would ordinarily be in a ticketing system of some kind, but are here on the Wiki instead, because that's how we roll. When things are resolved feel free to remove or strike out the issue.

=== Time zone setting ===

OK, to get this community portal going... is this the place to report issues with the wiki server configuration? Anyway, its time-zone setting seems to be a bit odd. It's set (apparently) to UTC + 4 hours (somewhere in Asia?), but it thinks it's in UTC, so if you set up your user configuration to adjust it to your local time zone, it ends up 4 hours off. I had to use "-08:00" to get my current EDT time. (That will change by one hour in a week or two when Daylight Saving Time ends.)
