<translate>Did you know?

• Query examples:
  • Network of European Union Independent Fiscal Institutions
  • Opera singers who are sopranos with an article on English Wikipedia
• Newest WikiProjects:
• Newest database reports: Popular_items_without_claims
• Showcase Lexemes: هُئَڻُ L1126190 Sindhi verb (to be)</translate>

<translate>Development

• Search: The haswbstatement search magic word has been improved by the Search Platform Team. Previously it was limited in which Properties were indexed for it. Going forward haswbstatement:P123 will work for all Properties, regardless of their datatype. This will allow you to filter search results for Items that have a statement with a specific Property. (Searching for a specific complete statement with haswbstatement:P123=xxx will still only work for specific datatypes.) For this to work all Items have to be reindexed and this will take up to 1 month.
• Design system migration: We have migrated the Special:NewLexeme page from Wikit to Codex and are working on finishing the migration for the Query Builder.
• EntitySchemas: We finished the investigation about how to support search for EntitySchemas by label or alias when linking to an EntitySchema in a statement. (phab:T362005)
• Wikibase REST API: We worked on integrating language fallbacks into the API (phab:T371605)

Tech News: 2024-49

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Updates for editors

• Two new parser functions were added this week. The {{#interwikilink}} function adds an interwiki link and the {{#interlanguagelink}} function adds an interlanguage link. These parser functions are useful on wikis where namespaces conflict with interwiki prefixes. For example, links beginning with MOS: on English Wikipedia conflict with the mos language code prefix of Mooré Wikipedia.
• Starting this week, Wikimedia wikis no longer support connections using old RSA-based HTTPS certificates, specifically rsa-2048. This change is to improve security for all users. Some older, unsupported browser or smartphone devices will be unable to connect; Instead, they will display a connectivity error. See the HTTPS Browser Recommendations page for more-detailed information. All modern operating systems and browsers are always able to reach Wikimedia projects. [1]
• Starting December 16, Flow/Structured Discussions pages will be automatically archived and set to read-only at the following wikis: arwiki, cawiki, frwiki, mediawikiwiki, orwiki, wawiki, wawiktionary, wikidatawiki, zhwiki. This is done as part of StructuredDiscussions deprecation work. If you need any assistance to archive your page in advance, please contact Trizek (WMF). [2]
• This month the Chart extension was deployed to production and is now available on Commons and Testwiki. With the security review complete, pilot wiki deployment is expected to start in the first week of December. You can see a working version on Testwiki and read the November project update for more details.
• View all 23 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a bug with the "Download as PDF" system was fixed. [3]

Updates for technical contributors

• In late February, temporary accounts will be rolled out on at least 10 large wikis. This deployment will have a significant effect on the community-maintained code. This is about Toolforge tools, bots, gadgets, and user scripts that use IP address data or that are available for logged-out users. The Trust and Safety Product team wants to identify this code, monitor it, and assist in updating it ahead of the deployment to minimize disruption to workflows. The team asks technical editors and volunteer developers to help identify such tools by adding them to this list. In addition, review the updated documentation to learn how to adjust the tools. Join the discussions on the project talk page or in the dedicated thread on the Wikimedia Community Discord server (in English) for support and to share feedback.

Cuentas temporales: se necesita ayuda técnica

Como parte del despliegue de las Cuentas Temporales, estamos trabajando para garantizar que las herramientas, accesorios, bots, scripts de usuario, AbuseFilters y cualquier otro código propiedad de la comunidad sigan funcionando sin problemas.

¿Qué son las Cuentas Temporales?

Temporary accounts are a new type of account for unregistered editors. Instead of showing IP addresses publicly, these accounts will assign temporary user IDs to logged-out editors. Tools that rely on IP addresses or workflows for logged-out users might need updates to function correctly. Temporary accounts are already live on some pilot wikis, with more pilot deployments planned for February and full rollout on all wikis in May.

Las cuentas temporales son un nuevo tipo de cuenta para editores y editoras no registrados. En lugar de mostrar públicamente las direcciones IP, estas cuentas asignan identificadores de usuario temporales a quienes no hayan iniciado sesión. Las herramientas que dependen de direcciones IP o flujos de trabajo para usuarios anónimos pueden necesitar actualizaciones para funcionar correctamente. Las cuentas temporales ya están activas en algunas wikis piloto, en febrero está prevista su activación en otras wikis piloto y el despliegue completo en todas las wikis será efectivo en mayo.

Cómo puedes ayudar

• Comprueba si el código (ya sea en Toolforge o en la wiki, es decir: herramientas, accesorios, bots o scripts de usuario) que has creado o utilizas con frecuencia funciona en las wikis en las que ya hay cuentas temporales activas. Aquí está la lista de wikis, y aquí está la lista de wikis beta y de test con cuentas temporales.
• Si observas que una herramienta puede verse afectada, te animamos a que intentes actualizarla siguiendo nuestra guía de documentación para desarrolladores.
• Añade en esta página las herramientas que identifiques que están afectadas. Queremos supervisarlas para asegurarnos de que todo funciona según lo previsto.
• Echa un vistazo a los Filtros de Abuso usados en tu wiki. Cualquier filtro que utilice IPs a través de user_name ya no podrá hacerlo. Esos filtros necesitan ser actualizados para utilizar user_unnamed_ip en su lugar. Un comentario de nuestro equipo de ingeniería: «El principal caso de uso debería ser si intentas algo como ip_in_range(s). Aquello que mapea nombres de usuario debería funcionar bien en líneas generales, ya que seguirán mapeando a nombres de cuentas temporales». Si tienes más preguntas sobre AbuseFilter, puedes añadir un comentario en el ticket T369611 de Phabricator.
• Si encuentras algún problema o tienes comentarios o preguntas, háznoslo saber en la página de discusión del proyecto. También puedes unirte al hilo de Discord para recibir ayuda y compartir tus comentarios con el equipo.

Colaborando con las pruebas e informando, ayudarás a que las herramientas importantes sigan funcionando sin problemas con esta actualización. Gracias por tu colaboración. Udehb-WMF (discusión) 12:38 3 dic 2024 (UTC)

Aviso al menos a los siguientes desarrolladores, para que revisen las herramientas mencionadas que han desarrollado.

@Ezarate: Usuario:Ezarate/AutoVEC.js.

@Nacaru: Usuario:Nacaru/twinkle-lite.js.

@Sophivorus: MediaWiki:Gadget-WikiSign.js.

Saludos. -- Leoncastro (discusión) 17:18 3 dic 2024 (UTC)

Habrá que ver cómo se integra esta idea en la API de MW pero en cualquier caso pinta que se viene bastante trabajo en WP:TL... @Udehb-WMF, ¿tenemos una fecha estimada algo más concreta para la aplicación de esta nueva funcionalidad en eswiki? Nacaru (discusión) 22:56 3 dic 2024 (UTC)

Hey @Nacaru, this is Szymon from Movement Communications, working on the Temporary Accounts project. Benedict (Udehb) is helping us with the tool side of it.

Regarding your question - we have a choice between February and May 2025. Whether it would be February or May depends on different things, so we aren't sure yet. We will start a conversation about this in January, after the holidays.

Regardless of the choice, we really want to make sure well ahead of time that the change goes smoothly, that's why we are informing you now. Of course, we will help your community wherever you need us. SGrabarczuk (WMF) (discusión) 15:30 4 dic 2024 (UTC)

@SGrabarczuk (WMF) thank you for your answer. I was wondering if there might be any page where the modifications to the MediaWiki API regarding this new functionality are fully described? Cheers.

Traducción: gracias por tu respuesta. Me preguntaba si existe una página en la que se describan con detalles los cambios a la API que esta nueva funcionalidad implican. Saludos. Nacaru (discusión) 18:10 4 dic 2024 (UTC)

Ojalá al menos sirva para poder volver a reportar usuarios sin registrar en WP:SVU. Saludos. strakhov (discusión) 19:37 4 dic 2024 (UTC)

@Nacaru, everything needed to do this should be on the page mw:Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/For developers (mentioned above - "te animamos a que intentes actualizarla siguiendo nuestra guía de documentación para desarrolladores"). Do you find answers there, or do you believe something is missing? Thanks, SGrabarczuk (WMF) (discusión) 00:57 5 dic 2024 (UTC)

Mejoras cosméticas y nombres trinomiales

Hola. El nombre científico de una subespecie se escribe en el formato Genus species subsp. subespecies. Al enlazarlo el formato es [[Enlace inerno|''Genus species'' subsp. ''subespecies'']], pero la herramienta que hace mejoras cosméticas lo toma por una mala manera de poner cursivas y lo cambia a ''[[Enlace inerno|Genus species'' subsp. ''subespecies]]'', ejemplo. El resultado para el lector es idŵntico, ahora que lo pienso (creia primero que dejaba todo en cursiva), pero no es muy elegante y quizás podría complicar el mantenimiento de alguna forma. ¿Es un problema o algo que merezca atención? Saludos. Lin linao ¿dime? 14:06 6 dic 2024 (UTC)

Es una mala ejecución de la recomendación por parte de la herramienta Replacer. La recomendación insta a cambiar [[Enlace interno|''Título'']] por ''[[Enlace interno|Título]]'', de forma que el enlace es más simple al no contener formato alguno, y en ciertos casos incluso se puede simplificar más cuando el enlace interno coincide con el título ([[Artículo|''Artículo'']] → ''[[Artículo]]''). Cuando el enlace contiene formato parcial no debería ejecutarse ese cambio.
@Benjavalero, prueba a utilizar la expresión regular /\[\[([^\|]+)\|(\'+)([^\']+)\2\]\]/, en donde si las capturas 1 y 3 son iguales (o equivalentes, ignorando la primera mayúscula y los espacios y guiones bajos, que seguro que ya sabes a qué me refiero) se cambia por $2[[$3]]$2 y en caso contrario por $2[[$1|$3]]$2. -- Leoncastro (discusión) 15:42 6 dic 2024 (UTC)

Muchas gracias @Lin linao por el aviso y @Leoncastro por la sugerencia. En efecto, no había tenido en cuenta que el alias del enlace pudiera contener comillas dentro de las comillas. Ya está corregido.

Añado simplemente que esta corrección no es cosmética para el usuario final pero sí para los editores de wikitexto, y se corresponde con la n.º 64 del proyecto Check Wikipedia. Un saludo. Benjavalero (discusión) 10:21 7 dic 2024 (UTC)

Idiomas

Hola. Cuando se especifica un código de idioma como «en-NZ» o «en-IN», el resultado debería ser el nombre del idioma en español, pero en su lugar, se muestra el nombre en inglés.

Por ejemplo, «en-NZ» debería mostrar «(en inglés neozelandés)», pero en su lugar, muestra «(en New Zealand English)». Lo mismo sucede con «en-IN», que muestra «(en Indian English)» en lugar de «(en inglés indio)».

¿Alguien sabe cómo solucionar este problema? Disculpen si este no es el lugar indicado para hacer esta pregunta. Tobías · (discusión) 22:07 8 dic 2024 (UTC)

@Tobías, me temo que eso no se va a poder solucionar desde Wikipedia, sino que sería necesario agregar las traducciones faltantes en el estándar Unicode CLDR (aquí), que es el que usa el sistema MediaWiki. Mientras tanto, para que salga en español hay que usar solamente |idioma=en, sin especificar la variante en ese caso. -- Leoncastro (discusión) 00:29 9 dic 2024 (UTC)

This layout change creates space to present people with new Checks that appear while they are typing. The initial results show newcomers encountering Edit Check are 2.2 times more likely to publish a new content edit that includes a reference and is not reverted.
• The Chart extension, which enables editors to create data visualizations, was successfully made available on MediaWiki.org and three pilot wikis (Italian, Swedish, and Hebrew Wikipedias). You can see a working examples on Testwiki and read the November project update for more details.
• Translators in wikis where the mobile experience of Content Translation is available, can now discover articles in Wikiproject campaigns of their interest from the "All collection" category in the articles suggestion feature. Wikiproject Campaign organizers can use this feature, to help translators to discover articles of interest, by adding the <page-collection> </page-collection> tag to their campaign article list page on Meta-wiki. This will make those articles discoverable in the Content Translation tool. For more detailed information on how to use the tool and tag, please refer to the step-by-step guide. [4]
• The Nuke feature, which enables administrators to mass delete pages, now has a multiselect filter for namespace selection. This enables users to select multiple specific namespaces, instead of only one or all, when fetching pages for deletion.
• The Nuke feature also now provides links to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions. Thanks to Chlod and the Moderator Tools team for both of these improvements. [5]
• The Editing Team is working on making it easier to populate citations from archive.org using the Citoid tool, the auto-filled citation generator. They are asking communities to add two parameters preemptively, archiveUrl and archiveDate, within the TemplateData for each citation template using Citoid. You can see an example of a change in a template, and a list of all relevant templates. [6]
• One new wiki has been created: a Wikiviajes in Indonesian (voy:id:) [7]
• Last week, all wikis had problems serving pages to logged-in users and some logged-out users for 30–45 minutes. This was caused by a database problem, and investigation is ongoing. [8]
• View all 19 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a bug in the Add Link feature has been fixed. Previously, the list of sections which are excluded from Add Link was partially ignored in certain cases. [9][10]

Updates for technical contributors

• Codex, the design system for Wikimedia, now has an early-stage implementation in PHP. It is available for general use in MediaWiki extensions and Toolforge apps through Composer, with use in MediaWiki core coming soon. More information is available in the documentation. Thanks to Doğu for the inspiration and many contributions to the library. [11]
• Wikimedia REST API users, such as bot operators and tool maintainers, may be affected by ongoing upgrades. On December 4, the MediaWiki Interfaces team began rerouting page/revision metadata and rendered HTML content endpoints on testwiki from RESTbase to comparable MediaWiki REST API endpoints. The team encourages active users of these endpoints to verify their tool's behavior on testwiki and raise any concerns on the related Phabricator ticket before the end of the year, as they intend to roll out the same change across all Wikimedia projects in early January. These changes are part of the work to replace the outdated RESTBase system.
• The 2024 Developer Satisfaction Survey is seeking the opinions of the Wikimedia developer community. Please take the survey if you have any role in developing software for the Wikimedia ecosystem. The survey is open until 3 January 2025, and has an associated privacy statement.
• There is no new MediaWiki version this week. [12]

Meetings and events

• The next meeting in the series of Wikimedia Foundation discussions with the Wikimedia Commons community will take place on December 12 at 8:00 UTC and at 16:00 UTC. The topic of this call is new media and new contributors. Contributors from all wikis are welcome to attend.

No puedo responder en algunas P.D.

Puedo responder mensajes en casi todas, pero hay dos en las que me aparece este mensaje:

"No se puede usar el enlace «responder» para responder a este comentario. Usa en su lugar el editor de página completo haciendo clic en «Editar código»".

¿Puede deberse a un error técnico, o es posible que mi usuario tenga algún tipo de bloqueo no notificado sólo en ciertas páginas?

Gracias de antemano. Saludos. Ingo y gonga (discusión) 04:11 11 dic 2024 (UTC)

@Ingo y gonga, tienes un bloqueo notificado en tu discusión: Usuario discusión:Ingo y gonga #Inhabilitación. -- Leoncastro (discusión) 21:05 11 dic 2024 (UTC)

Muchas gracias @Leoncastro. Que yo sepa, tengo un bloqueo para escribir en páginas de usuarios, pero ninguno para escribir en páginas de discusión de los artículos. Será el mismo o dos distintos? Saludos Ingo y gonga (discusión) 21:37 11 dic 2024 (UTC)

Tienes un bloqueo para editar en páginas de discusión de usuarios. Si nos indicas en qué otra página de discusión de artículo te afecta, podemos revisar si es un error técnico. -- Leoncastro (discusión) 21:46 11 dic 2024 (UTC)

Gracias, es en las P.D. de "rapero" ny en la de "Cristóbal Colón", en cualquier otra sí puedo. Ingo y gonga (discusión) 22:07 11 dic 2024 (UTC)

Corregidas. Procura no dejar abiertas las etiquetas de estilo que uses. -- Leoncastro (discusión) 22:34 11 dic 2024 (UTC)

Borrar imagen en Wikidata

Hola. En discusión:Balmaceda alertan de un error con la imagen que se muestra en la ficha y es probable que sea cierto. Ante la duda, intenté borrar la imagen en Wikidata, pero no es posible, dice que debería reemplazarla o algo así, pero no hay otra de reemplazo. ¿Cómo se hace? Gracias. Lin linao ¿dime? 14:28 11 dic 2024 (UTC)

@Lin linao: en donde está la imagen, seleccionas el icono de lápiz que dice "editar"; ahí mismo donde estaba ese lápiz te van a aparecer varias opciones, una de ellas es "eliminar". Saludos, –FlyingAce^✈hola 14:54 11 dic 2024 (UTC)

Gracias, FlyingAce, hasta ahí llegaba en el computador. Me salía un mensaje de que no debería borrarla. Ahora lo hice desde el celular y se borró de inmediato. Saludos. Lin linao ¿dime? 15:36 11 dic 2024 (UTC)
