Tech News: 2021-05

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

Problems

• IPv6 addresses were written in lowercase letters in diffs. This caused dead links since Special:Contributions only accepted uppercase letters for the IPs. This has been fixed. [1]

Changes later this week

• You can soon use Wikidata to link to pages on the multilingual Wikisource. [2]
• Often editors use a "non-breaking space" to make a gap between two items when reading but still show them together. This can be used to avoid a line break. You will now be able to add new ones via the special character tool in the 2010, 2017, and visual editors. The character will be shown in the visual editor as a space with a grey background. [3][4]
• Wikis use abuse filters to stop bad edits being made. Filter maintainers can now use syntax like 1.2.3.4 - 1.2.3.55 as well as the 1.2.3.4/27 syntax for IP ranges. [5]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 2 February. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 3 February. It will be on all wikis from 4 February (calendar).

Future changes

• Minerva is the skin Wikimedia wikis use for mobile traffic. When a page is protected and you can't edit it you can normally read the source wikicode. This doesn't work on Minerva on mobile devices. This is being fixed. Some text might overlap. This is because your community needs to update MediaWiki:Protectedpagetext to work on mobile. You can read more. [6][7]
• Cloud VPS and Toolforge will change the IP address they use to contact the wikis. The new IP address will be 185.15.56.1. This will happen on February 8. You can read more.

Tech News: 2021-06

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 Wikipedia app for Android now has watchlists and talk pages in the app. [8]

Changes later this week

• You can see edits to chosen pages on Special:Watchlist. You can add pages to your watchlist on every wiki you like. The GlobalWatchlist extension will come to Meta on 11 February. There you can see entries on watched pages on different wikis on the same page. The new watchlist will be found on Special:GlobalWatchlist on Meta. You can choose which wikis to watch and other preferences on Special:GlobalWatchlistSettings on Meta. You can watch up to five wikis. [9]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 February. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 February. It will be on all wikis from 11 February (calendar).

Future changes

• When admins protect pages the form will use the OOUI look. Special:Import will also get the new look. This will make them easier to use on mobile phones. [10][11]
• Some services will not work for a short period of time from 07:00 UTC on 17 February. There might be problems with new short links, new translations, new notifications, adding new items to your reading lists or recording email bounces. This is because of database maintenance. [12]
• Last week Tech News reported that the IP address Cloud VPS and Toolforge use to contact the wikis will change on 8 February. This is delayed. It will happen later instead. [13]

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

  • Video: Wikidata editing #31 Free Software Day - YouTube, Facebook
  • Video: Knowledge Graphs for AI: Wikidata and beyond - YouTube

• Tool of the week
  • UseAsRef script allows you to add references to statements using one external ID as source (see User:Bargioni/UseAsRef and this YouTube video for more information)

• Other Noteworthy Stuff
  • Abstract Wikipedia presents prototypes of two tools that could help people to visualize, exemplify, and better guide our understanding of the coverage of lexicographic data in Wikidata.
  • Public Domain Tool, developed by the Flemish Institute for Archives automates the process of determining whether their collection items could be in the public domain.
  • Sizes of country items (like "Portugal" (Q45)) were recently reduced by 30% to 50% by moving a few economics properties to "economy of"-items (sample: "economy of Portugal" (Q1649355)). The item "economy of Portugal" is currently larger than "Portugal". This can simplify uses of country items that previously timed-out. Infoboxes can still access the properties with the link through "economy of topic" (P8744).
  • Later this week, the development team will enable a rate limit for assigning new item IDs. Bots and users who successfully create items should notice no change, since the rate limit is equal to the existing limit on all edits. However, bots that often fail to create items may start to see different error messages than usual. This will hopefully reduce the problem of skipped item IDs.
  • Guidelines and compensation for UX research lead by Wikimedia Germany (announcement)

• Did you know?
  • Newest properties:
    • General datatypes: service status information URL, first family name in Portuguese name, time played, coordinates of depicted place

  • Fixed language code "dag" for Dagbani not working for Lemmas for Lexemes (phab:T272242)
  • Fixing the bug where the Property selector is not falling back from language variant to major language for Property labels (phab:T272712)
  • Adding a rate limit for creating Item IDs to avoid skipping so many due to misbehaving bots (phab:T272032)
  • Fixed the case where no error was shown when trying to save a lemma with an invalid language code (phab:T265783)
  • Fixed a but where merging two Lexemes fails if the source Lexeme has links to its own Senses (phab:T273830)
  • Increasing the rate of edits that trigger a check by the constraint checker to 50%. This will increase the number of constraints violations that you can query in the Query Service. (phab:T204031)
  • Making it possible to add interwiki links to/from Multilingual Wikisource (phab:T138332)

Tech News: 2021-08

Nachfolgend die Tech News aus der Wikimedia-Technik-Community. Bitte gib diese technischen Änderungen an andere weiter. Nicht alle Änderungen werden dich betreffen. Es gibt Übersetzungen dieser Nachricht.

Letzte Änderungen

• Der Visual Editor verwendet jetzt MediaSearch zur Bildersuche. Damit kann man Bilder auf Commons im Visual Editor suchen, wenn man nach Illustrationen sucht. Das soll es den Autoren leichter machen, bessere Bilder zu finden. [19]
• Der Syntax-Highlighter funktioniert jetzt für weitere Sprachen. Hinzugekommen sind Futhark, Graphviz/DOT, CDDL and AMDGPU. [20]

Probleme

• Wenn man eine Timeline bearbeitet hat, kann es sein, dass dabei der gesamte Text verschwand. Das lag an einem Bug, der nun behoben wurde. Es kann sein, dass du die Timeline noch einmal bearbeiten musst, damit sie wieder richtig angezeigt wird. [21]

Anstehende Änderungen im Verlauf der Woche

• 2021-02-24

Zukünftige Änderungen

• Es gibt eine User Group für Entwickler und für Benutzer, die an der Mitarbeit an Wikimedia-Wikis mit der Programmiersprache Rust interessiert sind. Du kannst dich ihr anschließen oder andere dorthin einladen, wenn du dein Wiki zukünftig verbessern willst.

Newsletter der Jungwikipedianer (27. Februar 2021)

Hallo ZabeMath!

In eigener Sache

Erst einmal allen Jungwikipedianer*innen ein gesundes und erfolgreiches neues Jahr 2021. Hoffen wir, dass diese Pandemiezeiten nicht mehr lange dauern...

Neuigkeiten

• Es haben einige neue Mitglieder Einzug gehalten, die wir natürlich alle herzlich willkommen heißen!
• Macht bei dem Artikel des Monats mit!
• Die Umfrage über einen JWP internen WBW läuft. Abstimmen kann man vom 01. März bis zum Ende des Monats.

Triqqs

• Mit der Vorlage In Bearbeitung kannst du andere darauf hinweisen, dass du den Artikel gerade bearbeitest (um Bearbeitungskonflikte zu vermeiden).
• Du willst Dateien von Wikimedia Commons extern von der Wikipedia benutzen und weißt nicht was du schreiben möchtest? Benutze den Lizenzhinweisgenerator!

Das beste kommt zum Schluss...

• Nutze doch eine der anderen Seiten im Jungwikipedianer-Namensraum wie die Artikelwerkstatt oder das Review. Viel Spaß dabei!
• Kennst du an deiner Schule oder in deinem sonstigen Umfeld Leute, die sich ebenfalls für die Wikipedia begeistern könnten? Lad sie ein! Bring ihnen Wikipedia bei! Wir brauchen jeden!
• In der letzten Zeit werden regelmäßig Videokonferenzen unter den JWPs gemacht.
• Überlegt bitte ob ihr am nächsten Wartungsbausteinwettbewerb in der Gruppe der JWPs mitmachen wollt (Auch wenn's noch ein bisschen dauert). Ich freue mich schon auf eure Mitarbeit!

---

Danke dir, frohes Editieren und bis bald!
