References Check to be activated at your wiki

Hello

Sorry to use English. দয়া করে আপনার ভাষায় অনুবাদ করতে সাহায্য করুন. আপনাকে ধন্যবাদ।

The Editing team is working on a new feature, Edit check.

Edit Check's goal is to provide more guidance to users when they edit, and thus to reduce the number of lower-quality edits. It means that experienced users would have fewer low-quality edits to deal with. Checks are in-context advice, shown when a certain action is performed. They are only visible to newcomers.

A good example is around adding citations. On Wikipedia, it is asked to provide a citation when you add a new fact, but newcomers often do not understand this requirement. It is not really explained after you click on “Edit”, so newcomers could forget about it.

Screenshot of Reference check as of September 2023

Our first check is References Check. In its first iteration, References Check is shown when a new paragraph with no citation is added to an article, using the visual editor. You can test it at your wiki, by editing any article and adding &ecenable=1 to the editing URL. Example:

1. Click on https://bn.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=সূর্য&veaction=edit&ecenable=1 This will open the article about "সূর্য" using the visual editor.
2. Then, add a new paragraph to the article, with no citation.
3. When you publish this change, the edit is not published. Instead, Reference Check is activated, as visible on the screenshot.
4. Try the different options provided.

Any edit made with Edit Check is tagged. This way, it is possible to identify edits where References Check was activated, and when a user declined the invite to add a citation. It is useful information when you need to explain a reverted edit.

We tested References Check at 11 wikis, and the results are encouraging. Reference Check caused an increase in the quality of edits newcomers publish and did not cause any significant disruption. People shown the Reference Check are more likely to publish a new content edit that includes a reference and is constructive (not reverted within 48 hours): 2.2 times more likely on desktop and 4.2 times more likely on mobile.

Your wiki is one of the last wikis where References Check will be deployed. We plan to deploy References Check to your wiki, in two weeks. Meanwhile, if you have any questions regarding this feature, please let me know. Trizek (WMF) (আলাপ) ১৫:৩৭, ১৭ অক্টোবর ২০২৪ (ইউটিসি)

We will deploy this feature before the end of this week. Trizek (WMF) (আলাপ) ১৩:২৭, ৬ নভেম্বর ২০২৪ (ইউটিসি)

Tech News: 2024-44

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

• Later in November, the Charts extension will be deployed to the test wikis in order to help identify and fix any issue. A security review is underway to then enable deployment to pilot wikis for broader testing. You can read the October project update and see the latest documentation and examples on Beta Wikipedia.
• View all ৩২ community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, Pediapress.com, an external service that creates books from Wikipedia, can now use Wikimedia Maps to include existing pre-rendered infobox map images in their printed books on Wikipedia. [১]

Updates for technical contributors

• Wikis can use the Guided Tour extension to help newcomers understand how to edit. The Guided Tours extension now works with dark mode. Guided Tour maintainers can check their tours to see that nothing looks odd. They can also set emitTransitionOnStep to true to fix an old bug. They can use the new flag allowAutomaticBack to avoid back-buttons they don't want. [২]
• Administrators in the Wikimedia projects who use the Nuke Extension will notice that mass deletions done with this tool have the "Nuke" tag. This change will make reviewing and analyzing deletions performed with the tool easier. [৩]

Tech News: 2024-45

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

• Stewards can now make global account blocks cause global autoblocks. This will assist stewards in preventing abuse from users who have been globally blocked. This includes preventing globally blocked temporary accounts from exiting their session or switching browsers to make subsequent edits for 24 hours. Previously, temporary accounts could exit their current session or switch browsers to continue editing. This is an anti-abuse tool improvement for the Temporary Accounts project. You can read more about the progress on key features for temporary accounts. [৪]
• Wikis that have the CampaignEvents extension enabled can now use the Collaboration List feature. This list provides a new, easy way for contributors to learn about WikiProjects on their wikis. Thanks to the Campaign team for this work that is part of the 2024/25 annual plan. If you are interested in bringing the CampaignEvents extension to your wiki, you can follow these steps or you can reach out to User:Udehb-WMF for help.
• The text color for red links will be slightly changed later this week to improve their contrast in light mode. [৫]
• View all ৩২ community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, on multilingual wikis, users can now hide translations from the WhatLinksHere special page.

Updates for technical contributors

• XML data dumps have been temporarily paused whilst a bug is investigated. [৬]

In depth

• Temporary Accounts have been deployed to six wikis; thanks to the Trust and Safety Product team for this work, you can read about the deployment plans. Beginning next week, Temporary Accounts will also be enabled on seven other projects. If you are active on these wikis and need help migrating your tools, please reach out to User:Udehb-WMF for assistance.
• The latest quarterly Language and Internationalization newsletter is available. It includes: New languages supported in translatewiki or in MediaWiki; New keyboard input methods for some languages; details about recent and upcoming meetings, and more.

Meetings and events

• MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference Fall 2024 is happening in Vienna, Austria and online from 4 to 6 November 2024. The conference will feature discussions around the usage of MediaWiki software by and within companies in different industries and will inspire and onboard new users.

Updates for technical contributors

• In 1.44.0-wmf-2, the logic of Wikibase function getAllStatements changed to behave like getBestStatements. Invoking the function now returns a copy of values which are immutable. [৯]
• Wikimedia REST API users, such as bot operators and tool maintainers, may be affected by ongoing upgrades. The API will be rerouting some page content endpoints from RESTbase to the newer MediaWiki REST API endpoints. The impacted endpoints include getting page/revision metadata and rendered HTML content. These changes will be available on testwiki later this week, with other projects to follow. This change should not affect existing functionality, but active users of the impacted endpoints should verify behavior on testwiki, and raise any concerns on the related Phabricator ticket.

In depth

• Admins and users of the Wikimedia projects where Automoderator is enabled can now monitor and evaluate important metrics related to Automoderator's actions. This Superset dashboard calculates and aggregates metrics about Automoderator's behaviour on the projects in which it is deployed. Thanks to the Moderator Tools team for this Dashboard; you can visit the documentation page for more information about this work. [১০]
