With reference to: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Migration_to_the_new_preprocessor/how_to_test#By_URL
I am looking for an equivalent URL method to test various pages at
rappelz.wikia.com
I have tried the following but the old-pp still gets used:
1. http://rappelz.wikia.com/wiki/User:Najevi/More_or_less?timtest=newpp
2. http://rappelz.wikia.com/index.php?title=User:Najevi/Show_or_hide&oldid=19447&timtest=newpp
The parser preprocessor summary as displayed in source view for either of the above resembles:
<!--
Pre-expand include size: 2096922/2097152 bytes
Post-expand include size: 476407/2097152 bytes
Template argument size: 66840/2097152 bytes
-->
Special:ParserDiffTest is the only tool I could find to use and it has been of some use, e.g.
1. http://rappelz.wikia.com/wiki/Special:ParserDiffTest/User:Najevi/More_or_less
and
2. http://rappelz.wikia.com/wiki/Special:ParserDiffTest/User:Najevi/Show_or_hide
However, there are pages of interest which DiffTest simply does not finish processing! (e.g #2 above) Those are pages that bump up against such limits as pre-expand size. You see it is precisely how well the new-pp appears to handles such pages that is of interest to me. FYI: #1 is a good example of a page that fully expands and renders with the new-pp but not with the old-pp.
For further background on my motivation read:
http://rappelz.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Toughpigs#Request for this wiki to be migrated to the new pre-processor
Please don't act on that request yet because I would prefer to test several more pages before committing to an early migration.
Regards,
