Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- You can add language links in the sidebar in the new Vector skin again. You do this by connecting the page to a Wikidata item. The new Vector skin has moved the language links but the new language selector cannot add language links yet. [1]
Problems
- There was a problem on wikis which use the Translate extension. Translations were not updated or were replaced with the English text. The problems have been fixed. [2][3][4]
Changes later this week
- A revision tag will soon be added to edits that add links to disambiguation pages. This is because these links are usually added by accident. The tag will allow editors to easily find the broken links and fix them. If your wiki does not like this feature, it can be hidden. [5]
- Would you like to help improve the information about tools? Would you like to attend or help organize a small virtual meetup for your community to discuss the list of tools? Please get in touch on the Toolhub Quality Signal Sessions talk page. We are also looking for feedback from tool maintainers on some specific questions.
- In the past, edits to any page in your user talk space ignored your mute list, e.g. sub-pages. Starting this week, this is only true for edits to your talk page. [6]
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 17 August. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 18 August. It will be on all wikis from 19 August (calendar).

- 50 cool new things you can now do with KB’s collection highlights - In this series of 5 articles we show the added value of putting images and metadata of digitised collection highlights of the KB, national library of the Netherlands, into the Wikimedia infrastructure. By putting our collection highlights into Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons and Wikipedia, dozens of new functionalities have been added. As a result of Wikifying this collection in 2020, you can now do things with these highlights that were not possible before. Article by OlafJanssen, DanielleJWiki and 1Veertje_(KB)

Nowinki techniczne od społeczności technicznej Wikimedia. Proszę poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą miały wpływ na Ciebie. Inne wersje językowe są dostępne.
Ostatnie zmiany
- Rozszerzenie Score (notacja
<score>
) zostało ponownie włączone na publicznych wiki i zaktualizowane do nowszej wersji. Niektóre funkcje zapisu nutowego mogą już nie działać, ponieważ rozszerzenie jest włączone tylko w "trybie bezpiecznym". Problem bezpieczeństwa został naprawiony i opublikowano poradnik.
Problemy
- Będziesz mógł czytać, ale nie edytować niektóre wiki przez kilka minut w dniu 25 sierpnia. Będzie to miało miejsce około 06:00 UTC. Ma to na celu konserwację bazy danych. W tym czasie operacje na CentralAuth również nie będą możliwe.
Zmiany w tym tygodniu
- Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 24 sierpnia, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 25 sierpnia, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 26 sierpnia (harmonogram).

Równocześnie niemożliwe będzie wykonywanie operacji związanych z CentralAuth (globalne zmiany nazwy użytkownika, zmiana/potwierdzanie adresów email, logowanie sie do nowy wiki, zmiany hasła).
W celu uzyskania szczegółów wykonywanej operacji sprawdź Phabricatora.
30 minut przed operacją zostanie wyświetlony baner informacyjny.

Recent changes
- Some musical score syntax no longer works and may needed to be updated, you can check Category:Strony z błędami w zapisie muzycznym on your wiki for a list of pages with errors.

Changes later this week
- The parameters for how you obtain tokens in the MediaWiki API were changed in 2014. The old way will no longer work from 1 September. Scripts, bots and tools that use the parameters from before the 2014 change need to be updated. You can read more about this.

Future changes
- You will be able to read but not edit Commons for a few minutes on 6 September. This will happen around 05:00 UTC. This is for database maintenance.

Dwie wielkie prośby
Cześć. Chciałbym Cię prosić o załatwienie dwóch rzeczy.
1. Skasowanie przekierowania z Wojna w Afganistanie (2001-2021) do Wojna w Afganistanie (2001–2021) (typografia). Niestety, z powodu działań innego wikipedysty, który nie zauważając oczywistych faktów, że wojna się skończyła, przeniósł wcześniej artykuł z poprawnego tytułu z powrotem do tego z otwartą datą, teraz jest konflikt przekierowań: kolejny użytkownik zamknął datę, ale z łącznikiem i nie da się przenieść artykułu pod prawidłową informatycznie nazwę z półpauzą.
2. Nie da się dodać do artykułu Niszczyciel okrętów podwodnych interwiki (grupa artykułów zawierająca m.in rosyjski ru:Противолодочный корабль). Pisałem już o tym do innego admina, dotychczas bez reakcji…
Pozdrawiam, Lelek 2v (dyskusja) 20:35, 30 sie 2021 (CEST)
- @Lelek 2v Obawiam się że nie bez kozery ten artykuł o niszczycielach okrętów podwodnych pozbawiony jest źródeł. Moim zdaniem to bowiem wolnoamerykanka, radosna twórczość, OR krótko mówiąc, i jako taki powinien być usunięty przez DNU. Nie występuje takie pojęcie. --Matrek (dyskusja) 20:51, 30 sie 2021 (CEST)
- Za punkt drugi dziękuję. A co do pierwszego, to niestety, nadal nie da się przenieść artykułu. Wyświetla mi się taki komunikat:
"Nie można przenieść strony z następującego powodu:
Strona o podanej nazwie już istnieje albo wybrana przez Ciebie nazwa nie jest poprawna. Wybierz inną nazwę. Jeżeli uważasz, że istniejący artykuł należy zastąpić innym, wstaw do niego szablon ek z uzasadnieniem opisującym, jaki artykuł i dlaczego powinien zostać przeniesiony".
Dodam jeszcze, że już praktycznie wszystkie Wikipedie, włącznie z angielską, uznały koniec wojny w Afganistanie, tylko polska jest z tyłu z powodu śmiesznego uporu jednego Wikipedysty, który przenosi pod nieaktualną nazwę… Lelek 2v (dyskusja) 18:12, 1 wrz 2021 (CEST)

(They need this notification so the article can be purged and show the latest data from Wikidata again. It is also required for showing the edit in the watchlist and recent changes on those wikis. This should have no visible impact for editors but is needed maintenance work.

Nowinki techniczne od społeczności technicznej Wikimedia. Proszę poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą miały wpływ na Ciebie. Inne wersje językowe są dostępne.
Ostatnie zmiany
- The wikis that have Growth features deployed have been part of A/B testing since deployment, in which some newcomers did not receive the new features. Now, all of the newcomers on 21 of the smallest of those wikis will be receiving the features. [10]
Zmiany w tym tygodniu
- W tym tygodniu nie będzie nowej wersji MediaWiki.
Przyszłe zmiany
- In 2017, the provided jQuery library was upgraded from version 1 to 3, with a compatibility layer. The migration will soon finish, to make the site load faster for everyone. If you maintain a gadget or user script, check if you have any JQMIGRATE errors and fix them, or they will break. [11][12]
- Last year, the Portuguese Wikipedia community embarked on an experiment to make log-in compulsory for editing. The impact report of this trial is ready. Moving forward, the Anti-Harassment Tools team is looking for projects that are willing to experiment with restricting IP editing on their wiki for a short-term experiment. Learn more.

- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 14 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 15 September. It will be on all wikis from 16 September (calendar).
- Starting this week, Wikipedia in Italian will receive weekly software updates on Wednesdays. It used to receive the updates on Thursdays. Due to this change, bugs will be noticed and fixed sooner. [15]
- You can add language links in the sidebar in the new Vector skin again. You do this by connecting the page to a Wikidata item. The new Vector skin has moved the language links but the new language selector cannot add language links yet. [16]
- The syntax highlight tool marks up code with different colours. It now can highlight 23 new code languages. Additionally,
golang
can now be used as an alias for the Go programming language, and a specialoutput
mode has been added to show a program's output. [17][18]

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Ostatnie zmiany
- Growth features are now deployed to almost all Wikipedias. For the majority of small Wikipedias, the features are only available for experienced users, to test the features and configure them. Features will be available for newcomers starting on 20 September 2021.
- MediaWiki had a feature that would highlight local links to short articles in a different style. Each user could pick the size at which "stubs" would be highlighted. This feature was very bad for performance, and following a consultation, has been removed. [20]
- A technical change was made to the MonoBook skin to allow for easier maintenance and upkeep. This has resulted in some minor changes to HTML that make MonoBook's HTML consistent with other skins. Efforts have been made to minimize the impact on editors, but please ping Jon (WMF) on wiki or in phabricator if any problems are reported.
Problemy
- There was a problem with search last week. Many search requests did not work for 2 hours because of an accidental restart of the search servers. [21]
Zmiany w tym tygodniu
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 September. It will be on all wikis from 23 September (calendar).
- The meta=proofreadpage API has changed. The
piprop
parameter has been renamed toprpiprop
. API users should update their code to avoid unrecognized parameter warnings. Pywikibot users should upgrade to 6.6.0. [22]
Przyszłe zmiany
- The Reply tool will be deployed to the remaining wikis in the coming weeks. It is currently part of "Narzędzia dyskusji" in Beta features at most wikis. You will be able to turn it off in Editing Preferences. [23]
- The previously announced change to how you obtain tokens from the API has been delayed to September 21 because of an incompatibility with Pywikibot. Bot operators using Pywikibot can follow T291202 for progress on a fix, and should plan to upgrade to 6.6.1 when it is released.

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- iOS 15 has a new function called Private Relay (Apple website). This can hide the user's IP when they use Safari browser. This is like using a VPN in that we see another IP address instead. It is opt-in and only for those who pay extra for iCloud. It will come to Safari users on OSX later. There is a technical discussion about what this means for the Wikimedia wikis.
Problems
- Some gadgets and user-scripts add items to the portlets (article tools) part of the skin. A recent change to the HTML may have made those links a different font-size. This can be fixed by adding the CSS class
.vector-menu-dropdown-noicon
. [24]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 September. It will be on all wikis from 30 September (calendar).
- The GettingStarted extension was built in 2013, and provides an onboarding process for new account holders in a few versions of Wikipedia. However, the recently developed Growth features provide a better onboarding experience. Since the vast majority of Wikipedias now have access to the Growth features, GettingStarted will be deactivated starting on 4 October. [25]
- A small number of users will not be able to connect to the Wikimedia wikis after 30 September. This is because an old root certificate will no longer work. They will also have problems with many other websites. Users who have updated their software in the last five years are unlikely to have problems. Users in Europe, Africa and Asia are less likely to have immediate problems even if their software is too old. You can read more.
- You can receive notifications when someone leaves a comment on user talk page or mentions you in a talk page comment. Clicking the notification link will now bring you to the comment and highlight it. Previously, doing so brought you to the top of the section that contained the comment. You can find more information in T282029.
Future changes
- The Reply tool will be deployed to the remaining wikis in the coming weeks. It is currently part of "Narzędzia dyskusji" in Beta features at most wikis. You will be able to turn it off in Editing Preferences. See the list of wikis. [26]

Oto najnowsze wiadomości od wikimedyjnej społeczności techników. Prosimy, poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie z nich będą was dotyczyć. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.
Ostatnie zmiany
- Bardziej efektywna metoda przesyłania zmian z Wikidanych do innych projektów została włączona na następujących 10 wiki: mediawiki.org; Wikipediach: włoskiej, katalońskiej, hebrajskiej i wietnamskiej; francuskim Wikisłowniku; angielskich: Wikipodróżach, Wikibooks, Wikisłowniku i Wikinews. Jeżeli w którymś z tych projektów zauważysz, że zmiany z Wikidanych wyświetlają się w nieprawidłowy sposób na ostatnich zmianach lub Twojej liście obserwowanych, daj znać programistom.
Zmiany nadchodzące w tym tygodniu
- Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 5 października, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 6 października, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 7 października (harmonogram).
- Niektóre gadżety i boty, korzystające z API do odczytu rejestru filtra nadużyć, mogą przestać działać. Właściwość
hidden
nie będzie już mogła przyjmować wartościimplicit
(była używana dla widocznych wpisów dotyczących zatrzymanych edycji). Jeśli potrzebujesz tej informacji, możesz ją uzyskać za pomocą odrębnego zapytania. Dodatkowo, od teraz właściwość ta będzie mogła przyjąć wartośćfalse
dla widocznych pozycji. Dotychczas w takiej sytuacji pole nie było dołączane do odpowiedzi. [27] - Wyżej wspomniana, bardziej efektywna metoda przesyłania zmian z Wikidanych do innych projektów zostanie wdrożona na wszystkich produkcyjnych wiki. Ponownie prosimy: jeżeli zauważysz, że zmiany z Wikidanych wyświetlają się w nieprawidłowy sposób na ostatnich zmianach lub Twojej liście obserwowanych, daj znać programistom.
Przyszłe zmiany
- Niedługo użytkownicy aplikacji Wikipedia na iOS będą mogli dostawać powiadomienia z innych wiki, również w formie push. Więcej zmian dotyczących powiadomień później. [28]
- Kod JavaScript nie będzie już w stanie odczytać wartości zmiennych
wgExtraSignatureNamespaces
,wgLegalTitleChars
iwgIllegalFileChars
za pośrednictwem obiektumw.config
. Wspomniane właściwości nie są częścią stabilnego interfejsu i nie powinno się z nich korzystać w JavaScripcie. [29] - Zmienne
wgCookiePrefix
,wgCookieDomain
,wgCookiePath
orazwgCookieExpiration
zostaną wkrótce usunięte zmw.config
. Skrypty i gadżety powinny korzystać zmw.cookie
z modułu mediawiki.cookie. [30]

- In the previous week we migrated all Wikimedia wikis to use the new change dispatching system. This system is responsible for notifying the other wikis about edits made on Wikidata that affect their articles so the article is refreshed and edits are added to recent changes and watchlists. This week we monitored the new system and investigated and fixed a few issues that came up.
