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 Section-level Image Suggestions feature has been deployed on seven Wikipedias (Portuguese, Russian, Indonesian, Catalan, Hungarian, Finnish and Norwegian Bokmål). The feature recommends images for articles on contributors' watchlists that are a good match for individual sections of those articles.
  • Global abuse filters have been enabled on all Wikimedia projects, except English and Japanese Wikipedias (who opted out). This change was made following a global request for comments. [1]
  • Special:BlockedExternalDomains is a new tool for administrators to help fight spam. It provides a clearer interface for blocking plain domains (and their subdomains), is more easily searchable, and is faster for the software to process for each edit on the wiki. It does not support regex (for complex cases), nor URL path-matching, nor the MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist, but otherwise it replaces most of the functionalities of the existing MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist. There is a Python script to help migrate all simple domains into this tool, and more feature details, within the tool's documentation. It is available at all wikis except for Meta-wiki, Commons, and Wikidata. [2]
  • The WikiEditor extension was updated. It includes some of the most frequently used features of wikitext editing. In the past, many of its messages could only be translated by administrators, but now all regular translators on translatewiki can translate them. Please check the state of WikiEditor localization into your language, and if the "Completion" for your language shows anything less than 100%, please complete the translation. See a more detailed explanation.

Changes later this week

  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 11 July. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 12 July. It will be on all wikis from 13 July (calendar).
  • The default protocol of Special:LinkSearch and API counterparts has changed from http to both http and https. [3]
  • Special:LinkSearch and its API counterparts will now search for all of the URL provided in the query. It used to be only the first 60 characters. This feature was requested fifteen years ago. [4]

Future changes

  • There is an experiment with a ChatGPT plugin. This is to show users where the information is coming from when they read information from Wikipedia. It has been tested by Wikimedia Foundation staff and other Wikimedians. Soon all ChatGPT plugin users can use the Wikipedia plugin. This is the same plugin which was mentioned in Tech News 2023/20. [5]
  • There is an ongoing discussion on a proposed Third-party resources policy. The proposal will impact the use of third-party resources in gadgets and userscripts. Based on the ideas received so far, policy includes some of the risks related to user scripts and gadgets loading third-party resources, some best practices and exemption requirements such as code transparency and inspectability. Your feedback and suggestions are warmly welcome until July 17, 2023 on on the policy talk page.

  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 18 July. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 19 July. It will be on all wikis from 20 July (calendar).
  •   MediaWiki system messages will now look for available local fallbacks, instead of always using the default fallback defined by software. This means wikis no longer need to override each language on the fallback chain separately. For example, English Wikipedia doesn't have to create en-ca and en-gb subpages with a transclusion of the base pages anymore. This makes it easier to maintain local overrides. [6]
  •   The action=growthsetmentorstatus API will be deprecated with the new MediaWiki version. Bots or scripts calling that API should use the action=growthmanagementorlist API now. [7]

Women in Red 8th Anniversary

Latest comment: 9 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion
  Women in Red 8th Anniversary
In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap!

Mohamad Ali Jinnah, Kargil, sorry for the late reply as I was travelling for the past two months.

Wikipedia pages/articles are based on notability of the subject - see WP:N. Even if the subject is notable but if the content is written by the subject themselves, it would violate the conflict interest guidelines. To write an article - pls see Help:Your first article.

I want to get enrolled in WP:NPRSCHOOL as student

Latest comment: 8 months ago5 comments2 people in discussion

Hello, I was to get enrolled as a student in WP:NPRSCHOOL. Would I have the honor to get accepted by you? Thanks. Twinkle1990 (talk) 08:00, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

Twinkle1990 Good day and thank you for interested in NPPS program. I need to understand a few things prior to see if you are suitable for the program. I believe you were an AfC reviewer before and somehow the right was revoked. If so, kindly explain the issues involved. Secondaly, your autopatrol right was also revoked due to CIR issue, pls explain and provide ANI link of the discussion. Thank you. Cassiopeia talk 03:03, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
Cassiopeia I was a probationary AfC reviewer, not full time. Being probationary reviewer, I did some mistakes for which the right was revoked. For more clarity, I prefered the drafts to have WP:RS sourcing per point 2 of WP:NFO.
  • My autopatrolled rights was revoked along with probationary reviewer rights, though Autopatrolled right had nothing to do after removing AfC reviewer rights. But I have no obligation over the revoke. But I don't assume that I have CIR issue. In the ANI I was in a situation where five to six users were throwing questions to me at a time and before I answer one another four to five questions were thrown. In such situation, I was in helpless. Whome I should answer while I was flooded with questions and none let me to answer one by one.
  • The link of the ANI you asked for is here: WP:ANI.
  • An IP user brought the issue to ANI, and I still wonder when I look at their contribution. This can not be a conincident. Th drafts in question raised by Joe Roe, I hav declined because there were enough red-marked sourcing such as Youtube, Instagram etc.
  • Whatever I did was wrong in eyes of majority in in ANI.
  • I believe, after recoking the rights, there is no question about Indef as after that I got busy creating movie or TV series related articls.
Hope you this much enough to clarify.
Thanks- Twinkle1990 (talk) 08:27, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
Twinkle1990 thank you for the info and the ANI links. There are many admins involved in the ANI discussion and the point they made was some of your AfC was declined incorrectly as there are some RS were provided. There are 3 different channel to submit an article in Wikipedia. NPPS is for new page (new articles in main space) and AfC is draft articles in draft space and both needed to be reviewed first by NPP reviewer and AfC reviewer respectively. The third channel is through having an autopatrol right which the articles submitted by the editor do not need to go through any reviewer to be in the main space. Since the decision that you do not have a good understand on notability and its associated guidelines that was the reason your autopatrolled right was revoked. Please remember, even I have done thousands of reviews on articles in NPP and AfC, it does not mean I can review every articles I come across even I understand the guidelines for I might not know all the subjects well for me to do the review work especially the sources are from certain country I am not familiar. In cases of such, I will leave the articles alone and let other reviewers who know about the subject and the sources to do the work.
NPPS is a very comprehensive program and it takes a lot of your time to read the material and work on the assignments. Most participants take about 3 months to complete; however, there is not time limit to finish the program as every editor do the work on the own free time. If you still want to participate in the program after the info above, then let me know and I will set up it up for you. Be safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 09:22, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
Cassiopeia I know that NPPS is is not so easy. But I want to pass it. Regarding the time, I do not have any issue. I might need six+ months to learn the things.
  • One more thing. I was just foolish to expect AfC editors to comply per the MOS. For a kind request I would like to have a short look at my created articles here. I am expepecting a short review from your side. Eg., when I create any article, I maintain WP:MOS, but most editors left an article about a movie or TV series before the release. I use to keep updated the pages with Critical reception and box office outcomes (if not released in OTT). Please have a look. I am expecting a feedback. Thanks.

Wikidata Working Hours provide hands-on Wikidata experience in a supportive space. We hope you will join us if you are interested in learning more about Wikidata, exploring LIS literature, and have been looking for a fun Wikidata project to contribute to. The first Wikidata Working Hour in the series will cover creating a bibliography of diverse LIS articles and books.
