Leveling up release

5,000+ images added via the newcomer task in February

  • In February 2023, 5,035 images were added via the newcomer “add an image” feature (on all wikis where available); 155 were reverted.
  • Since the feature “add an image” was launched: 36,803 images have been added; 2,957 images were reverted.

Recent changes

[rediger kilde]
  • Add a link
    • Community Ambassadors completed an initial evaluation that confirmed that prioritizing underlinked articles resulted in better article suggestions. We then evaluated the change on Growth pilot wikis, and results suggest that more newcomers are successfully completing the task and experiencing fewer reverts. We have now deployed the new prioritization model to all wikis with "add a link" enabled. [1][2]
    • We continue the deployment of "add a link" to more wikis. These changes are regularly announced in Tech News. To know if newcomers at your wiki have access to this feature, please visit your Homepage.
  • The Impact module was deployed on our pilot wikis, where we conducted an A/B test. We published initial findings, and a data scientist is now completing experiment analysis. [3]
  • Donor Thank you page experiment – Donors land on a “thank you” page after donation, and that landing page now includes a call to action to try editing: Example Thank you page in French. This promising feature is tested at several Wikipedias (French Wikipedia, Italian Wikipedia, Japanese Wikipedia, Dutch Wikipedia, Swedish Wikipedia).
  • Growth features are now the default experience on both test.wikipedia.org and test2.wikipedia.org. You can test our features there.

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

  • The system for automatically creating categories for the Babel extension has had several important changes and fixes. One of them allows you to insert templates for automatic category descriptions on creation, allowing you to categorize the new categories. [8][9][10][11][12]

Changes later this week

  • The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 4 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 5 April. It will be on all wikis from 6 April (calendar).
  • Some older Web browsers will stop being able to use JavaScript on Wikimedia wikis from this week. This mainly affects users of Internet Explorer 11. If you have an old web browser on your computer you can try to upgrade to a newer version. [13]
  • The deprecated jquery.hoverIntent module has been removed. This module could be used by gadgets and user scripts, to create an artificial delay in how JavaScript responds to a hover event. Gadgets and user scripts should now use jQuery hover() or on() instead. Examples can be found in the migration guide. [14]
  • Some of the links in Spesial:Spesialsider will be re-arranged. There will be a clearer separation between links that relate to all users, and links related to your own user account. [15]
  • You will be able to hide the Reply button in archived discussion pages with a new __ARCHIVEDTALK__ magic word. There will also be a new .mw-archivedtalk CSS class for hiding the Reply button in individual sections on a page. [16][17][18]

Future changes

  • The Vega software that creates data visualizations in pages, such as graphs, will be upgraded to the newest version in the future. Graphs that still use the very old version 1.5 syntax may stop working properly. Most existing uses have been found and updated, but you can help to check, and to update any local documentation. Examples of how to find and fix these graphs are available.

Your wiki will be in read-only soon

[rediger kilde]

Les denne beskjeden på et annet språk • Hjelp til med å oversette til ditt språk

Wikimedia Foundation tester overgangen mellom hoved- og reservedatasentrene sine. Dette skal sikre at Wikipedia og de andre Wikimedia-wikiene forblir online selv om en katastrofe skulle oppstå. For å sikre at alt fungerer, trenger Wikimedias teknologiske avdeling til å utføre en planlagt test. Denne testen vil vise om det er mulig å bytte fra det ene datasenteret til det andre uten problemer. Det vil kreve mye arbeid for å forberede testen og fikse eventuelle problemer.

All trafikk flyttes til et annet datasenter 26 april. Testen starter 14:00 UTC (16:00 norsk tid).

På grunn av noen begrensninger i MediaWiki må all redigering stoppes mens vi bytter. Vi beklager forstyrrelsen, og jobber med å minimere den i framtida.

Du vil kunne lese alle wikiene, men ikke redigere dem i et kort tidsrom.

  • I opptil en time onsdag 26 april 2023 vil du ikke være i stand til å redigere.
  • Hvis du prøver å redigere eller lagre i dette tidsrommet vil du se en feilmelding. Vi håper at ingen redigeringer vil gå tapt i disse minuttene, men kan ikke garantere noe. Hvis du ser feilmeldingen, vent til alt virker som normalt igjen. Deretter skal du kunne redigere som vanlig. For sikkerhets skyld anbefaler vi likevel at du lagrer en kopi av arbeidet ditt.

Andre ting verdt å nevne:

  • Bakgrunnsjobber kan ta lengre tid og noen kan bli avbrutt eller terminert. Røde lenker vil ikke oppdateres like raskt som normalt. Hvis du oppretter en artikkel som er lenket til et annet sted, så vil lenken være rød lengre enn vanlig. Noen skript som tar lang tid vil stoppe.
  • Vi forventer at utrulling av kode vil skje på samme måte som ellers. Enkelte kodeutrullinger kan imidlertid bli forsinket hvis de påvirkes av denne endringen.
  • GitLab blir utilgjengelig i rundt halvannen time.
Dette prosjektet kan bli utsatt om nødvendig. Du kan lese tidsplanen på wikitech.wikimedia.org. Skulle noen endringer skje vil det komme på tidsplanen. Det vil komme flere varsler angående dette. Et banner vil vises på alle wikier i 30 minutter før testen finner sted. Vennligst del denne informasjonen med nettsamfunnet ditt.

  • Due to security issues with the Graph extension, graphs have been disabled in all Wikimedia projects. Wikimedia Foundation teams are working to respond to these vulnerabilities. [31]

  • All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on April 26. This is planned for 14:00 UTC. [35]
  • The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 25 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 26 April. It will be on all wikis from 27 April (calendar).

Seeking volunteers for the next step in the Universal Code of Conduct process

[rediger kilde]
Flerspråklig utgave • Hjelp til med å oversette til ditt språk

Hello,

As follow-up to the message about the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines by Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Vice Chair, Shani Evenstein Sigalov, I am reaching out about the next steps. I want to bring your attention to the next stage of the Universal Code of Conduct process, which is forming a building committee for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C). I invite community members with experience and deep interest in community health and governance to nominate themselves to be part of the U4C building committee, which needs people who are:

  • Community members in good standing
  • Knowledgeable about movement community processes, such as, but not limited to, policy drafting, participatory decision making, and application of existing rules and policies on Wikimedia projects
  • Aware and appreciative of the diversity of the movement, such as, but not limited to, languages spoken, identity, geography, and project type
  • Committed to participate for the entire U4C Building Committee period from mid-May - December 2023
  • Comfortable with engaging in difficult, but productive conversations
  • Confidently able to communicate in English

The Building Committee shall consist of volunteer community members, affiliate board or staff, and Wikimedia Foundation staff.

The Universal Code of Conduct has been a process strengthened by the skills and knowledge of the community and I look forward to what the U4C Building Committee creates. If you are interested in joining the Building Committee, please either sign up on the Meta-Wiki page, or contact ucocproject(_AT_)wikimedia.org by May 12, 2023. Read more on Meta-Wiki.

Best regards,

Xeno (WMF) 26. apr. 2023 kl. 21:00 (CEST)
