Cut the drama here and stop using threatening language
editThat passive agression you are showing on my talk page, "you are warned, don't do this again" stuff like that, just cut that already. Instead, explain to me in a civil manner what is the issue you got with my edits. That link leads to disambiguation page and I only fixed that. Stop assuming that other people who edit are doing disruptive edits, and only you hold the beacon of righteous authority here. — Hemant Dabral (📞 • ✒) 09:18, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Hemant Dabral If you wish to be templated instead of a custom message, then this will be the one - Template:Uw-tpv2 (not level1 as you're not a new member) — DaxServer (t·m·e·c) 09:54, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- So are we supposed to leave the links unfixed that lead to a disambiguation page? Inauguration of Narendra Modi is a redirect that leads to Oath of office ceremony of Narendra Modi which itself is a disambiguation page. The SAARC members were invited to the First oath of office ceremony of Narendra Modi as it's mentioned in it's WP:DYK nomination. — Hemant Dabral (📞 • ✒) 10:03, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

Recent changes
- The software used to render SVG files has been updated to a new version, fixing many longstanding bugs in SVG rendering. [6]
The HTML used to render all headings is being changed to improve accessibility. It was changed last week in some skins (Vector legacy and Minerva). Please test gadgets on your wiki on these skins and report any related problems so that they can be resolved before this change is made in Vector-2022. The developers are still considering the introduction of a Gadget API for adding buttons to section titles if that would be helpful to tool creators, and would appreciate any input you have on that.- The HTML markup used for citations by Parsoid changed last week. In places where Parsoid previously added the
mw-reference-textclass, Parsoid now also adds thereference-textclass for better compatibility with the legacy parser. More details are available. [7]
Problems
- There was a bug with the Content Translation interface that caused the tools menus to appear in the wrong location. This has now been fixed. [8]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 11 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 12 June. It will be on all wikis from 13 June (calendar). [9][10]
- The new version of MediaWiki includes another change to the HTML markup used for citations: Parsoid will now generate a
<span class="mw-cite-backlink">wrapper for both named and unnamed references for better compatibility with the legacy parser. Interface administrators should verify that gadgets that interact with citations are compatible with the new markup. More details are available. [11] - On multilingual wikis that use the
<translate>system, there is a feature that shows potentially-outdated translations with a pink background until they are updated or confirmed. From this week, confirming translations will be logged, and there is a new user-right that can be required for confirming translations if the community requests it. [12]

Recent changes
- People who attempt to add an external link in the visual editor will now receive immediate feedback if they attempt to link to a domain that a project has decided to block. Please see Edit check for more details. [13]
- The new Community Configuration extension is available on Test Wikipedia. This extension allows communities to customize specific features to meet their local needs. Currently only Growth features are configurable, but the extension will support other Community Configuration use cases in the future. [14][15]
- The dark mode beta feature is now available on category and help pages, as well as more special pages. There may be contrast issues. Please report bugs on the project talk page. [16]
Problems
- Cloud Services tools were not available for 25 minutes last week. This was caused by a faulty hardware cable in the data center. [17]
- Last week, styling updates were made to the Vector 2022 skin. This caused unforeseen issues with templates, hatnotes, and images. Changes to templates and hatnotes were reverted. Most issues with images were fixed. If you still see any, report them here. [18]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 18 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 19 June. It will be on all wikis from 20 June (calendar). [19][20]
- Starting June 18, the Reference Edit Check will be deployed to a new set of Wikipedias. This feature is intended to help newcomers and to assist edit-patrollers by inviting people who are adding new content to a Wikipedia article to add a citation when they do not do so themselves. During a test at 11 wikis, the number of citations added more than doubled when Reference Check was shown to people. Reference Check is community configurable. [21]
- Mailing lists will be unavailable for roughly two hours on Tuesday 10:00–12:00 UTC. This is to enable migration to a new server and upgrade its software. [22]

DYK for Vasantha Krishna Prasad
edit
On 19 June 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Vasantha Krishna Prasad, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Vasantha Krishna Prasad was the richest candidate from Krishna district to contest the 2019 Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly election? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Vasantha Krishna Prasad. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Vasantha Krishna Prasad), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
Please respond in Amaravati talk page:Old City, Hyderabad was founded by Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah (died 1612), not some Chief Minister or Politician, who built a software park 386 years later 35 km away in the city of modern Hyderabad during 1990's. Similarly old city Amaravathi is founded by Vasireddy Venkatadri Nayudu (died 1816) not some Chief Minister or Politician who is building a government complex 200 years later 35 km away in the city of modern Amaravati, Pls change it in the Amaravati article's infobox. This is applicable to any city of the world, Amaravati is not unique to this. Just because somebody is a fan of N. Chandrababu Naidu, cannot endorse it to the article illogically.

Recent changes

You can share your comments or questions on the project talkpage. [23]
- The text colors that are used for visited-links, hovered-links, and active-links, were also slightly changed last week to improve their accessibility in both light mode and dark mode. [24]
Problems
- You can copy permanent links to talk page comments by clicking on a comment's timestamp. This feature did not always work when the topic title was very long and the link was used as a wikitext link. This has been fixed. Thanks to Lofhi for submitting the bug. [25]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 25 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 26 June. It will be on all wikis from 27 June (calendar). [26][27]
- Starting 26 June, all talk pages messages' timestamps will become a link at English Wikipedia, making this feature available for you to use at all wikis. This link is a permanent link to the comment. It allows users to find the comment they were linked to, even if this comment has since been moved elsewhere. You can read more about this feature on Diff or on Mediawiki.org. [28]
