This means all Wikimedia wikis have now changed from "Syte spychere" to "Änderige spychere". This is to help new editors understand what it does. <a class="external autonumber" href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161367">[1]</a><a class="external autonumber" href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T131132">[2]</a></li> <li>Some edits will get an automatic <a href="/wiki/Spezial:Markierige" title="Spezial:Markierige">tag</a> on all wikis. This will happen when making a page a redirect, blanking a page, removing almost all content, undoing an edit, or rolling back an edit. You can see the tags for example in the recent changes feed, article history, user contributions or on your watchlist. Some wikis had already marked edits like these in other ways. <a class="external autonumber" href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T167656">[3]</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Spezial:Dateie_wo_nit_brucht_w%C3%A4re" title="Spezial:Dateie wo nit brucht wäre">Special:UnusedFiles</a> shows files that have been uploaded but are not used.

The new <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:GloballyUnusedFiles" class="extiw" title="c:Special:GloballyUnusedFiles">Special:GloballyUnusedFiles page on Commons</a> only shows files that are not used on any wiki. <a class="external autonumber" href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T183673">[4]</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Structured_Discussions" class="extiw" title="mw:Special:MyLanguage/Structured Discussions">Structured discussions</a> now uses the 2017 wikitext editor instead of its old custom one.

When you loaded the saved filter all other namespaces were excluded instead. This has now been fixed. If you made any changes to your saved filters between 13 December and 2 January, you need to save your filters with excluded namespaces again. <a class="external autonumber" href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T183910">[8]</a></li> <li>The latest version of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Google_Chrome" class="extiw" title="w:en:Google Chrome">Google Chrome</a> broke how section links are shown in the address bar. You now see <code>#R%C3%A9sum%C3%A9</code> instead of <code>#Résumé</code> even if MediaWiki did not encode it that way. This happened in early December. This problem has been solved.

Currently, most Wikipedias don’t have mapframe. But <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Maps#Milestones_and_Updates" class="extiw" title="mw:Special:MyLanguage/Maps">fifteen Wikipedias</a>, along with all the other Wikimedia projects, are using mapframe today to display maps on thousands of pages. </p><p>A little background: over the last few months, the Foundation’s <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Collaboration" class="extiw" title="mw:Collaboration">Collaboration team</a> has been working to improve the stability and user experience of the maps service. In addition, a question about long-term support for the maps service was recently settled, and a small team has been assigned for routine maintenance. Given these developments, bringing the benefits of mapframe to Wikipedias that lack the feature seems both safe and supportable. <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T191583" class="extiw" title="phab:T191583">Nine Wikipedias</a> that use a stricter version of Flagged Revisions will not get mapframe in this release. </p><p>Maps are a valuable form of visual data that can improve readers’ understanding across a wide range of topics.

We feel confident that the features are stable and effective, but if you have thoughts about these tools or the beta graduation, <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Edit_Review_Improvements/New_filters_for_edit_review" class="extiw" title="mw:Talk:Edit Review Improvements/New filters for edit review">please let us know</a> on the project talk page. In particular, tell us if you know of a special incompatibility or other issue that makes the New Filters problematic on your wiki. We’ll examine the blocker and may delay release on your wiki until the issue can be addressed. </p><p>The deployment will start on June 18 or on June 25, depending on the wiki (<a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T195993#4261642" class="extiw" title="phab:T195993">check the list</a>). After the deployment, you will also be able to opt-out this change directly from the Watchlist page and also in your preferences. </p><p><big><b>How to be ready?</b></big> </p><p>Please share this announcement! </p><p>If you use local Gadgets that change things on your Watchlist pages, or have a customized scripts or CSS, be ready. You may have to make some changes to your configuration. Despite the fact that we have tried to take most cases into consideration, some configurations may break. The Beta phase is a great opportunity to have a look at local scripts and gadgets: some of them may be replaced by native features from the Beta feature. </p><p>Please share your questions and comments on the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Edit_Review_Improvements/New_filters_for_edit_review" class="extiw" title="mw:Talk:Edit Review Improvements/New filters for edit review">feedback page</a>. </p><p>On behalf of the <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Collaboration" class="extiw" title="mw:Collaboration">Collaboration team</a>, <a href="/wiki/Benutzer:Trizek_(WMF)" title="Benutzer:Trizek (WMF)">Trizek (WMF)</a> <a href="https://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Technik/Archiv_2018#c-Trizek_(WMF)-2018-06-07T13:14:00.000Z-Improvements_coming_soon_on_Watchlists" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:14, 7.

The <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Team" class="extiw" title="mw:Reading/Web/Team">Readers web team</a> has recently begun working on exposing issue templates on the mobile website. Currently, details about issues with page content are generally hidden on the mobile website. This leaves readers unaware of the reliability of the pages they are reading. The goal of this project is to improve awareness of particular issues within an article on the mobile web. We will do this by changing the visual styling of page issues. </p><p>So far, we have <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile_Page_Issues" class="extiw" title="mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues">drafted a proposal on the design and implementation</a> of the project. We were also able to run <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile_Page_Issues/Research_Results" class="extiw" title="mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues/Research Results">user testing on the proposed designs</a>. The tests so far have positive results. Here is a quick summary of what we learned: </p> <ul><li>The new treatment increases awareness of page issues among participants. This is true particularly when they are in a more evaluative/critical mode.</li> <li>Page issues make sense to readers and they understand how they work</li> <li>Readers care about page issues and consider them important</li> <li>Readers had overwhelmingly positive sentiments towards Wikipedia associated with learning about page issues</li></ul> <p>Our next step would be to start implementing these changes. We wanted to reach out to you for any concerns, thoughts, and suggestions you might have before beginning development. Please <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile_Page_Issues" class="extiw" title="mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues">visit the project page</a> where we have more information and mockups of how this may look.

Currently all administrators are able to edit these pages, which poses a serious and unnecessary security risk. Soon, a dedicated, smaller user group will take over this task. Your community will be able to decide who belongs in this group, so this should mean very little change for you.

(These are pages like <code dir="ltr">MediaWiki:Common.css</code> and <code dir="ltr">MediaWiki:Vector.js</code> which contain code that is executed in the browsers of users of the site.) A new user group, <code dir="ltr"><a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Interface_administrators" class="extiw" title="m:Special:MyLanguage/Interface administrators">interface-admin</a></code>, has been created. Starting four weeks from now, only members of this group will be able edit CSS/JS pages that they do not own (that is, any page ending with <code dir="ltr">.css</code> or <code dir="ltr">.js</code> that is either in the <code dir="ltr">MediaWiki:</code> namespace or is another user's user subpage). </p><p>You can learn more about the motivation behind the change <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Creation_of_separate_user_group_for_editing_sitewide_CSS/JS" class="extiw" title="m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS">here</a>. </p><p>Please add users who need to edit CSS/JS to the new group (this can be done the same way new administrators are added, by stewards or local bureaucrats). This is a dangerous permission; a malicious user or a hacker taking over the account of a careless interface-admin can abuse it in far worse ways than admin permissions could be abused. Please only assign it to users who need it, who are trusted by the community, and who follow common basic password and computer security practices (use strong passwords, do not reuse passwords, use two-factor authentication if possible, do not install software of questionable origin on your machine, use antivirus software if that's a standard thing in your environment). </p><p>Thanks! <br/><span dir="ltr"><a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Tgr" class="extiw" title="m:User:Tgr">Tgr</a> (<a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Tgr" class="extiw" title="m:User talk:Tgr">talk</a>) <a href="https://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Technik/Archiv_2018#c-Tgr-2018-07-30T13:08:00.000Z-New_user_group_for_editing_sitewide_CSS/JS" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:08, 30.

It allows contributors who edit templates to separate content and presentation. A good web practice that makes it easier to manage the layout of templates. If you don't edit templates, this will not have any impact on your contributions. </p><p>TemplateStyles is useful for a few reasons. </p> <ul><li>It makes it possible for templates to work better on mobile.</li> <li>It cuts out confusion on where to apply CSS rules.</li> <li>Editing CSS is currently limited to administrators, which is a major barrier to participation.</li> <li>All stylesheets must be loaded on all pages (whether they actually use the page or not), which wastes bandwidth and makes debugging style rules more difficult.</li></ul> <p>You can <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:TemplateStyles" class="extiw" title="mw:Help:TemplateStyles">learn more about TemplateStyles on MediaWiki.org</a>. <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TemplateStyles" class="extiw" title="mw:Extension:TemplateStyles">Technical documentation is also available</a>. </p><p>This is an optional feature and no one must use it, but template contributors are encouraged to do so! Please discuss and let us know if there are any concerns. If there are no concerns we will proceed to deploy the feature on the 9th of August. </p><p>Thank you. </p> </div> <p><a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:CKoerner_(WMF)" class="extiw" title="m:User:CKoerner (WMF)">CKoerner (WMF)</a> (<a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:CKoerner_(WMF)" class="extiw" title="m:User talk:CKoerner (WMF)">talk</a>) <a href="https://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Technik/Archiv_2018#c-CKoerner_(WMF)-2018-08-06T21:28:00.000Z-Enabling_a_helpful_feature_for_Template_editors" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:28, 6.

The users will also have been warned before they publish the article that it has a lot of unchanged text from machine translations. <a class="external autonumber" href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T190798">[249]</a></li></ul> <p><i><b><a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News" class="extiw" title="m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News">Tech news</a></b> prepared by <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Writers" class="extiw" title="m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Writers">Tech News writers</a> and posted by <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/User:MediaWiki_message_delivery" class="extiw" title="m:Special:MyLanguage/User:MediaWiki message delivery">bot</a> • <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News#contribute" class="extiw" title="m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News">Contribute</a> • <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2018/46" class="extiw" title="m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2018/46">Translate</a> • <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech" class="extiw" title="m:Tech">Get help</a> • <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Tech/News" class="extiw" title="m:Talk:Tech/News">Give feedback</a> • <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Global_message_delivery/Targets/Tech_ambassadors" class="extiw" title="m:Global message delivery/Targets/Tech ambassadors">Subscribe or unsubscribe</a>.</i> </p> </div></div><p> 20:22, 12.

We will make these templates more noticeable when viewing the article. We ask for your help in updating any templates that don't look correct. </p><p>What kind of templates? Specifically templates that notify readers and contributors about issues with the content of an article – the text and information in the article. Examples like <a href="https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5962027" class="extiw" title="wikidata:Q5962027">Template:Unreferenced</a> or <a href="https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5619503" class="extiw" title="wikidata:Q5619503">Template:More citations needed</a>. Right now these notifications are hidden behind a link under the title of an article. We will format templates like these (mostly those that use Template:Ambox or message box templates in general) to show a short summary under the page title. You can tap on the "Learn more" link to get more information. </p><p>For template editors we have <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Recommendations_for_mobile_friendly_articles_on_Wikimedia_wikis#Making_page_issues_(ambox_templates)_mobile_friendly" class="extiw" title="mw:Recommendations for mobile friendly articles on Wikimedia wikis">some recommendations on how to make templates that are mobile-friendly</a> and also further <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile_Page_Issues" class="extiw" title="mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues">documentation on our work so far</a>. </p><p>If you have questions about formatting templates for mobile, <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile_Page_Issues" class="extiw" title="mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues">please leave a note on the project talk page</a> or <a class="external text" href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/1/?projects=Readers-Web-Backlog">file a task in Phabricator</a> and we will help you. </p><p>Merci! </p> </div> <p><a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:CKoerner_(WMF)" class="extiw" title="m:User:CKoerner (WMF)">CKoerner (WMF)</a> (<a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:CKoerner_(WMF)" class="extiw" title="m:User talk:CKoerner (WMF)">talk</a>) <a href="https://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Technik/Archiv_2018#c-CKoerner_(WMF)-2018-11-13T19:34:00.000Z-Change_coming_to_how_certain_templates_will_appear_on_the_mobile_web" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:34, 13.
