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

• You can now make charts and maps on your wiki with the new "graph" tool. If you have an old browser, you will see images instead. It uses a tool called Vega; you can learn how to use it and write help pages for your wiki. You can use the Vega edit tool to make charts and copy the code to your wiki. Charts and maps use complex code and you should put them into templates. In the future, you will be able to create charts with VisualEditor. [1] [2] [3]
• You can apply for technical jobs to develop tools for the community. [4]
• The logos of all wikis are now in a new place. It will make pages load faster. You can still ask to change the logo. You can also use local CSS for brief changes. [5] [6]

Problems

• There was a problem that caused slow editing. [7]
• Pages were sometimes removed from your watchlist in VisualEditor. This problem is now fixed. [8]

Changes this week

• The new version of MediaWiki has been on test wikis and MediaWiki.org since May 6. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis from May 12. It will be on all Wikipedias from May 13 (calendar).
• You can now use data from Wikidata on more pages. The page doesn't need to be linked to the Wikidata item. It works on a few wikis and more wikis will be added soon. [9] [10]
• You should get fewer errors when you add files to Commons. [11]
• When you use an external link to link to a wiki page, VisualEditor now converts it to a wiki link. [12]
• When you add a link in VisualEditor, you see pages that match what you type. It is now easier to see where they match. [13]

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs are the most important. The meeting will be on May 13 at 18:00 (UTC). See how to join.

بخصوص جائزة الإصرار

أهلا صديقي حلمووني، أنا بخير الحمد لله وأنهيت دراستي هذا العام بشكل جيد. بالنسبة لجائزة الإصرار فللأمانة هذه المرة الأولى التي أسمع فيها عن الجائزة. بعد البحث والتقصي هي جائزة حكومية تتبع لصندوق تنمية الموارد البشرية في السعودية. ملحوظية الجائزة من الصعب الحكم عليها لأن الجائزة لاتعد من الجوائز الرئيسية في الدولة كجائزة الملك فيصل العالمية على سبيل المثال. متابعي حسابهم في تويتر يبلغ 42 ألف. أعتقد أن الجائزة تتمتع ببعض الملحوظية لكن إلى حد منخفض. في كل الأحوال المقالة مكتوبة بصيغة غير موسوعية وأعتقد أنها بحاجة إلى إعادة صياغة. ولا أمانع ترشيحها للحذف --زياد ( ملفي • نقاشي • راسلني ) 01:52، 21 مايو 2015 (ت ع م)

IRC cloak request

Hello Helmoony,

you or somebody pretending to be you has filed a request for a Wikimedia IRC cloak. However, the diff we received does not conform to the requirements, which are that it be made within your userspace (ie, user talk page, user page) and that it contain the summary "IRC cloak request". If it indeed was you that requested the cloak, please make a new edit conforming to the requirements and link the diff on my meta talk page so that the request can be properly processed.

  • German language Wikipedia closed its RfC on usage of Wikidata data. As a result Wikidata data can be used on the project as long as it happens through a template and it has a non-Wikimedia reference.
• Events/Blogs/Press
  • Past: Office hour on IRC. We talked about cool things that happened around Wikidata over the past 3 months got an update on upcoming developments and Freebase and more. You can read the log.
• Other Noteworthy Stuff
  • en:South Pole Telescope is a nice example of an infobox completely filled from Wikidata.
  • Q20150617 was created on 2015-06-17
  • More data from Freebase have been added the Primary Sources Tool. There is also a page to help the mapping of Freebase properties.
  • Nice new manual for MixnMatch
  • The new nature.com/ontologies links to external ontologies and datasets; among them Wikidata.
  • National Gallery of Art and the J. Paul Getty Museum now have entries for all their paintings on Wikidata thanks to wiki project Sum of all Paintings
• Did you know?
  • Newest properties: takeoff and landing capability, Discogs label ID, Discogs master ID, Discogs artist ID, Encyclopaedia Metallum band id, investor, second surname in Spanish name, CulturaItalia ID, BerlPap identifier, Mapillary id, National Library of Ireland authority
  • Newest WikiProjects: Cross Items Interwikis
• Development
  • Made a small API breaking change to wbeditentity and wbgetclaims modules. Details can be seen in the commit message of https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/217885/
  • Worked more on unit support
  • Fixed an issue where you'd sometimes select the wrong value when entering a statement unintentionally (phabricator:T98471)
  • Switched the whole code base to make use of DataModel 3.0
  • The concept of “claims” no longer exists in Wikibase, as all places in the software work with statements. We are making this more and more explicit in the code.
  • The autoloading mechanism of the extension changed, see phabricator:T100813
  • More work on getting the Wikibase Quality extensions ready for deployment. They'll improve constraint checking and provide checks against 3rd party databases.
  • Special:UnconnectedPages had to be reworked (thanks Amir!) because of huge performance issues. Because of this it loses some functionality (being able to specify where the list starts and limiting the list to pages that have local interwiki links). We're working on bringing functionality back without the performance penalty.
  • Bene* created a SPARQL abstraction layer for PHP called Asparagus: https://github.com/Benestar/asparagus
  • Enabled arbitrary access on arwiki, cawiki, eswiki, huwiki, kowiki, rowiki, ukwiki, viwiki, and usage tracking on dewiki, ruwiki, cswiki and all s3 wikis. (ruwiki and cswiki get arbitrary access on June 23)
  • Finishing work on improved handling “invalid” values and statements with deleted properties.
  • Small breaking DOM change: Wikibase no longer adds its own h1 tag but uses MediaWiki's default .firstHeading element. (phabricator:T93534)
• Monthly Tasks
  • Hack on one of these.
  • Help fix these items which have been flagged using Wikidata - The Game.
  • Help develop the next summary here!
  • Contribute to a Showcase item
  • Help translate or proofread pages in your own language!
  • Add labels, in your own language, for the new properties listed above.

رمضان كريم

مرحبا حلمي وصياما مقبولا ورمضان كريم عليك وعلى العائلة الكريمة وكل عام وأنت بخير. وأعتذر عن المباركة المتأخرة. حقيقة هذه الرسالة ترددت في كتابتها لكن أخيرا قررت أن أفعل وأتمنى أن لا تسيء فهمي أخي العزيز. الحقيقة كوني مستخدم يراقب هذه الصفحة منذ سنتين أكثر من أي شيء آخر (أكثر من التلفاز حتى ) ويتابع قوائم المراقبة وآلاف صفحات الموسوعة لفت انتباهي أمر مزعج لو استطعت حله وحدي لفعلت لكن لأنني لم أستطع راسلتك. وهو ظهور اسمك هنا وهو أمر أستغربه جدا وأنا جد خجل من كتابة هذه الرسالة في نقاشك لكنني لا أملك إنترنت سوى التصفح المجاني لويكيبيديا وهي بوابتي للعالم الواسع وإلا كنت راسلتك خارج الموسوعة بهذا الخصوص. إفطارا هنيئا. إم زي--Avicenno (نقاش) 16:37، 23 يونيو 2015 (ت ع م)

شكرا حلمي. لم لا نباشر بفصلها كما تفضلت كونها قائمة مراقبة اختصاصية فيجب أن تحمل شيئا من "الاختصاصية" وعليه يجب فصلها. عندي سؤال وهو كيف دخل الاسم إلى القائمة أصلا أي هل تضاف الصفحات بطريقة بوتية؟. أنا توقعت أن المشكلة بقائمة المراقبة نفسها لكن استبعدت هذا الخيار لظني أنها تكتب يدويا ولكن يبدو أنها تستخرج بالبوت. لذلك قمت بفحص التصانيف في صفحتك الشخصية والقوالب المضمنة فيها علني أجد شيئا له علاقة يكون هو السبب ولم أجد ولكن بالنهاية حلت المشكلة. شكرا لك وصياما مقبولا. تحياتي--Avicenno (نقاش) 10:15، 24 يونيو 2015 (ت ع م)

أهلا مجددا حلمي. حقيقة أنا مثلك طلبت تحديث صفحات المستخدمين المخالفة في نقاش تلك الصفحة لأنني قمت بإفراغها كلها سابقا فطلبت من العزيز سايفرز لكن كلنا حقيقة من رجال الأعمال بالموسوعة فسايفرز يقوم بأعمال جليلة في جائزة المنتج والمشاريع الشقيقة وغيرها من الأمور التحريرية. وأنت أيضا تقوم بأعمال جليلة (عرفتها عندما تسللت لصفحتك الشخصية من مدة ) كربط الوصلات الخاصة باللغات وأهم شيء متابعة تعديلات المجهولين البريئة التي أشاركك في تقديرك لروعتها. أما عني فأنا أضطلع بعبء متابعة الصفحات الجديدة من سنتين وأمنع تسرب الصفحات المخالفة وهذا يتوجب علي أن أكون متواجدا بشكل دائم بالموسوعة لكنها للأسف تراكمت علي من مدة بسبب بعض الأعمال التحريرية الأخرى كنقالة انتحار التي رشحتها كمختارة عدا عن مكافحة التخريب وإدارة مشروعين شقيقين. لكنني لا أزال مستمرا في متابعتها على الدوام. بالخلاصة كل منا لديه عمل كبير يقوم به ولهذا فإننا نلتمس لنفسنا وغيرنا العذر. شكرا لرسالتك حلمي. تحياتي--Avicenno (نقاش) 13:27، 24 يونيو 2015 (ت ع م)

Autopromotion

Salut,

J'ai remarqué cette page problématique. Le contributeur en question dépense beaucoup d'énergie pour l'alimenter avec des photos sur Commons qui sont très souvent des copyvios. Dans la mesure où le sujet n'est pas admissible et qu'il semble utiliser cette page pour son autopromotion, il me semblerait préférable de la supprimer et de l'informer sur ce qu'il pourrait faire de plus constructif. Merci pour ton aide.

رد: الحضارة العربية الإسلاميَّة

أهلًا حلمي. هُناك تحويلة هي حضارة إسلاميَّة، وهذه بدورها تحويلة إلى العصر الذهبي للإسلام. شخصيًّا أعتقد أنَّ كلاهُما يستحق أن يكون مقالة مُختلفة لأنَّ العصر الذهبي للإسلام يمتد من عهد هٰرون الرشيد إلى عهد سُليمان القانوني أو سليم الثاني تقريبًا، أمَّا الحضارة الإسلاميَّة أو العربيَّة الإسلاميَّة فهي مُستمرَّة حتَّى اليوم بشكلٍ أو بآخر. عندي النية أن أعمل على فصل المقالتين مُستقبلًا، لكن حتَّى ذلك الحين يُمكنها أن تبقى وصلات لِبعضها إذا شئت. تحيَّاتي--باسم^{راسلني (☎)}--: 14:35، 29 يوليو 2015 (ت ع م)

مرحبا

مرحبا أخي حلمي. شكرا لنصائحك. سأعمل بها إن شاء الله. بالنسبة للبوت فهناك مساعي لتشغيله من طرف الأخ مينو في ميدان ويكي مصدر لكنني لست بيروقراطا فلذلك أنتظر رد بيروقراطنا المحلي سايفرز ليمنح علم البوت. أما قبل أن يتطوع الأخ مينو لتشغيل بوته فقد كنت أقوم بالترحيب بنفسي سعيا إلى حفز المستخدمين للمشاركة لأني قبلها راسلت أحد الزملاء وأخبرني عن عدم نيته بتشغيل بوته على ويكاموس أيضا فاضطررت للقيام بهذه المهمة بنفسي لعل المشروع يجتذب مساهمين جدد. يشرفني التواصل معك هنا أو في مشاريع شقيقة أو في الإيميل أو على الفيسبوك كصديق. تحياتي--Avicenno (نقاش) 17:46، 5 أغسطس 2015 (ت ع م)

رد:طلبات جديدة

مرحبا أخي، بالنسبة لمشروع وصلات اللغات كنت قد أشرت سابقا بأن طريقة القائمة لها عيوب وأنه من الأفضل العودة لطريقة التصنيف. أما بخصوص المقالات الجديدة فسأدرس الأمر. فقط أود الاستيضاح : المقالات الجديدة هي المقالات المستحدثة مؤخرا وبها رابط لأحد البوابات. أرجو أن أكون قد فهمت الأمر جيدا. --- مع تحياتي ---(أدلي برأيك)-- وهراني 20:15، 17 أغسطس 2015 (ت ع م)

بالمناسبة يوجد بوابة:برلين. أما قضية تحويل البوابات فهذا يستلزم دراسة ووقتا وتفرغا. أما عن نسبة المقالات المبوبة فيمكن الحصول عليه يشكل تقريبي من عدد المقالات التي تضمن {{شريط بوابات}} / العدد الكلي للمقالات. --- مع تحياتي ---(أدلي برأيك)-- وهراني 11:43، 18 أغسطس 2015 (ت ع م)

تَرشيح مَقالة كَجيدة

مرحبا

مرحيا حلمي وشكرا جزيلا على متابعتك. بالنسبة لبوابات الدول كنت قد عملت قائمة مسبقة تجدها هنا لكني أصبحت حذرا جدا عند إنشاء اي بوابة بسبب سياسة الحذف الجديدة لأن الكثير من مقالات تلك الدول فقيرة. حاليا أقوم بعمل طريقة لإنشاء البوابات بطريقة سهلة بربع الوقت وقد تكون بداية لقاعدة في هذا المجال وقد قاربت على النهاية وعندها سأتمكن من إنشاء عدد كبير جدا من البوابات في وقت أقل بكثير. تجد هنا قائمة أنشئها عمر مشكورا توضح مدى التقدم في عملية إنشاء البوابات الناقصة والغير موجودة. بالنسبة للبوابة المذكورة ساقوم بإنشائها سريعا عمت مساءا.--Khaled (نقاش) 23:16، 22 أغسطس 2015 (ت ع م)

رد إداري سابق

أهلاً بك أخي حلمي، أنا بخير الحمد لله، وأتمنى أن تكون أمورك جيدة وعال العال . أنا سعيد برؤيتك مجدداً في الموسوعة، وهو ضروري إذ يكسر بذلك القالب النمطي التقليدي للإداري ويضفي الكثير من الحيوية، وأتمنى وجودك باستمرار قدر الإمكان. بالنسبة لسؤالك عن التقدم للإدارة فأنا أقدّر وأثمّن الطرح، لكني يا صديقي أستثمر الوقت الضيق المتاح لي حالياً فقط لتطوير المقالات المتعلقة بالكيمياء. شكراً لك. --Sami Lab (نقاش) 06:13، 4 سبتمبر 2015 (ت ع م)

رد:نقاش سول وتحويلات

مرحبا @Helmoony: الملاحظة الأولى انظر واستمع لسول وال داعي لنقاش، والملاحظة الثانية بالنسبة لتحويلات التصنيفات تخلق جو من الارتباك ولا داعي لوجودها، أما عدم تكرارها فهذا غير صحيح، لأن سول هناك من يكتبها سيول ومن سيئول، هذا بالنسبة لمن يتجاهل الاسم الصحيح، مع تمنياتي --김수현 ^راسلني 17:52، 5 سبتمبر 2015 (ت ع م)

المقالات الخاصة بتونس

السلام عليكم، شكرا لملاحظاتك، سنواصل تظافر جهودنا في إنشاء المقالات من أجل هذا المشروع، ولكن يجب التكثير منه والتقدم فيه، ولذلك أرجوا إنشاء المقالات المتعلقة بتونس. ويكيبيديا الفرنسية وفي بوابة تونس، يوجد 573 5 مقالة متصلة، ونحن لدينا 277 4 مقالة متصلة، يجب أن نقلص هذا الفارق. المهم، شيئ وحيد لا أتفق فيه معك، هو نزع وصلة بوابة تونس من مقالات لا تتعلق مباشرة بها، مثل مقالة المغرب العربي كما ذكرت أنت، ولكن هذه الوصلات والتي تكون لها صلة غير مباشرة بالموضوع تبقى هامة ومتصلة من هنا أو من هنالك، لذلك أرجو عدم نزعها، ما عدا ذلك أرجو لك ولنا التوفيق، في خدمة المحتوى العربي على الأنترنت.--Mohatatou (نقاش) 21:47، 7 سبتمبر 2015 (ت ع م)

قوائم

أخ Helmoony سلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته, أظن أن وجود المقالة أو قائمة باللغات الأجنبية أو عدمه ليس شرطاً لإنشاء المقالات أو القوائم. ذلك أرجو ألا تحذف المقالات التي أنشأتها حتى للأصناف الغير مؤكدة حالياً. هذه المقالات معرفة على أنها لأنواع غير مؤكدة بذلك الوقت, وهناك عدد كبير من المقالات باللغة الإنكليزية لمثل هذه الأنواع. بالنسبة للقوائم, الأفضل إبقاء القائمة لكل جنس يحتوي على 200 نوع وما فوق منفصل عن مقالة الجنس. بالنسبة للمصطلحات, لقد أرسلت لك ما طلبته ويبدو أن ذلك تم إهماله وإعتماد قوائم أخرى. أطيب التحيات --Makki98 (نقاش) 23:41، 28 سبتمبر 2015 (ت ع م)

Problems

• On September 29 users' skin preferences were removed by mistake on small and medium-sized wikis. This changed preferences back to Vector. Restoring all data would cause even more problems. Affected users who want to have their preference changed back globally can ask for it as a comment on Phabricator task T119206 until December 21 2015. [220]
• Some scheduled tasks were not working properly from September to recently. This meant some pages in the special pages namespace were not updated. It has now been fixed. [221]

Changes this week

• Wikinews, Wikispecies, MediaWiki.org and Meta will be able to use information from Wikidata. [222][223]
• There are no MediaWiki deployments this week (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Architecture committee. The topic this week is using the <figure> tag for media. The meeting will be on 2 December at 22:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• Category watchlists are now available on test wikis and MediaWiki.org. The plan is to enable it on most wikis in January. [224]
• Cross-wiki notifications are being developed. When this is done you will not have to go to the wiki where something happened to be notified. [225]

ويكي المرأة - الجولة الأولى

أن تشعل شمعة خير من أن تلعن الظلام، فما بالك إن تم مكافأتك على إشعالك لهذه الشمعة؟! نحن نعاني من نقص حاد في المحتوى العربي عن المرأة على شبكة الإنترنت عمومًا وفي ويكيبيديا بشكل خاص. عالمنا ملئ بشتى الموضوعات التي تهتم بالمرأة بدءًا من السير الذاتية للنساء، وصولًا إلى مختلف الكيانات والمنظمات النسوية. ساهم في الكتابة عنهن وشارك في مشروع ويكي المرأة والجولة الأولى من مسابقة المشروع. لأية استفسارات، يُرجى التواصل مع فريق عمل المسابقة: Ravan (ن) ولا روسا (ن). مع خالص تمنياتنا بالتوفيق للجميع.

ملحوظية مباني

مرحبا اخ هلموني، أود أن أسألك، هل هناك صفحة في ويكيبيديا تتكلم عن ملحوظية المباني والمنشآت، أظن أن المساجد ودور العبادة يجب أن تندرج ضمن ملحوظية المباني والمنشآت لأنها لا تختلف عنها --muhib mansour (نــــاقــــشــــهُ) 17:39، 10 ديسمبر 2015 (ت ع م)

توضيح

مرحبا أخي حلمي. من باب التوضيح أرجو أن لا تنزعج من منعي للبوت فليس المقصود التقليل من احترامك ومكانتك عندي وكذلك مكانة الأخ عباس بقدر ما أنني أهتم بتطبيق السياسات وعدم تجاوز توافق المجتمع وإلا لك خالص المحبة في قلبي (طالع سكايب الخاص بك فقد أرسلت لك رسالة من أكثر من أسبوع تقريبا). ولكن يا أخي المفترض أن يتم إيقاف البوت حالما تم الإخطار عن عدم وجود التوافق (وبعد ذلك إعادته لو تم التوافق). أنا لاحظت رسالتك في نقاش أخي عباس (ولكن البوت لم يتوقف) والأصل أن يتوقف حتى نصل أنا وأنت والزميل عباس لاتفاق وليس العكس أي اتهامي بأني أفرض رأيي في نقاش جاري (مع انه تنص السياسة على وجود موافقة مسبقة). شكرا لك--Avicenno (نقاش) 18:43، 13 ديسمبر 2015 (ت ع م)

تم التنفيذ (ربط ويكي الكتب)

السلام عليكم، بخصوص ويكي الكتب تقريبا هناك 1300 صفحة لكن هناك عدد صفحات قليل جدا يوجد فيها وصلات إنجليزية وهي بحدود 60 مقالة فقط، منها البعض مربوطة بمقالات إنجليزية ليست موجودة في ويكي بيانات أساسا لذا تم تجاوزها، والبقية من الـ 60 التي لا يوجد بها مشاكل تم ربطها.

Tech News: 2016-02

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

• Wikimedia no longer uses visitor statistics from comScore. [239]
• You can make interactive graphs with the Graph extension. There is now a tutorial for how to do this. [240]

Problems

• Some pages do not turn in up in categories where they should be. This is because link tables are sometimes not populated. [241]

Changes this week

• The Nuke extension will work with Flow. This will make it easier to handle spam in Flow. [242]
• New file uploads will now be patrollable. [243]
• Internet Explorer 8 will no longer have JavaScript support. You will still be able to browse and edit Wikipedia if you use Internet Explorer 8, but will not be able to use some features. This can be solved by upgrading to a newer version or switching to a different browser. [244][245]

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 12 January at 20:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• URLs in the recent changes IRC feed will no longer be rewritten to unencrypted HTTP. This could be a breaking change for bots dependent on the IRC feed. [246]
• The edit tabs for the wikitext editor and the visual editor will be combined to one single edit tab. You will be able to choose which one you prefer. If you are not logged in, your choice will be saved as a cookie in your browser. You can test the single edit tab. [247][248]
• There is a beta feature that adds links to the subject on other Wikimedia projects. This works much like the links to for example Wikipedia articles in other languages. It will go out of beta testing and be enabled for everyone in January. Wikis that don't want this can decide to have it disabled. [249][250]
• The difference between "alerts" and "messages" notifications is unclear to some. The developers want feedback at the Phabricator task or on MediaWiki.org so they can make this better. You can give feedback in your language if you can't write in English.

Recent changes

• You can now follow when pages are added or removed from a category on German Wikipedia. The plan is to add it to Wikimedia Commons and other Wikipedias this week. [255][256]
• Administrators can hide individual entries of a page with RevisionDelete. There is now a button to choose "all", "none" or "inverse" in Special:Log. The article history will get the same buttons soon. Wikis that have done this locally with JavaScript will be able to remove that code. [257]

Tech News: 2016-05

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

• Sites with a wikimedia.org address were by mistake redirected to the Wikimedia Foundation wiki on 26 January. This included Meta and Wikimedia Commons. The mistake was fixed after an hour. [264]
• Some users had problems logging in and out around 22 January. Bots also had problems and edit previews did not work properly. This was because of problems related to the new component SessionManager. It was undone on 23 January. [265][266]
• Because of new problems with SessionManager the latest version of MediaWiki was removed from the Wikimedia wikis again on 31 January. The new version this week will be without SessionManager. [267]

Changes this week

• The page history will get a help link. This will go to Help:Page history on Meta. Wikis can exchange it for a link to their local pages. [268]
• Notifications will only show part of a page name if it is very long. You will also have another way to mark notifications as read. [269][270]
• The Universal Language Selector input methods are now available with the visual editor. This means many who write in non-Latin scripts can now use the visual editor. [271]
• The visual editor will now give you more tools to edit tables. You can move rows and columns in a table and copy parts of tables to make new ones. You can also copy and paste more than one cell at the same time. [272][273][274]
• The visual editor has a new warning message when you leave a page you are editing without saving. Non-English wikis might need to translate it. [275][276]
• 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).

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 2 February at 20:00 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the next meeting with the Architecture committee. The topic this week is expiring watch list entries. The meeting will be on 3 February at 22:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• The rest.wikimedia.org domain will be shut down. This is planned to happen in March. You should use /api/rest_v1/ at each individual project domain instead. [277]

• When you get a notification that an edit has been reverted, the notification now quotes part of the edit summary. [279]
• RESTBase is now using scrub_wikitext instead of scrubWikitext. [280]

Changes this week

• Wikidata will have a new data type called "math". It will be used for formulas. [281][282]
• 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).

• You can join the next meeting with the Architecture committee. The topic this week is per-language URLs for pages of multilingual wikis. The meeting will be on 10 February at 22:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• Other sites will be able to tell when visitors come from links on Wikipedia and other Wikimedia sites. They used to be able to do this until we started using forced HTTPS in June 2015. This is planned to happen on 15 February. [283][284]
• Wikidata will have a new data type called "external-id". It will be used for references to external resources. It will be enabled on February 16. Some properties will be changed to the new data type. [285][286][287]

رد: قالب

مرحبا Helmoony!، أرجو أن تكون بخير يا صديقي. بالنسبة للقالب فهو غير قابل للاستخدام في المقالات، لأن موضوع التسميات العربية للعناصر الكيميائية برمّته، مع احترامي الكبير للدكتور فيصل، هو بحث أصلي، وهو غير مستخدم سوى في المجلة المذكورة بالمراجع، وهي مجلة الفيصل؛ ولكن ذلك لا يؤثر على رصانتها العلمية المعروفة. بالتالي أقترح الحذف السريع للقالب. --Sami Lab (نقاش) 08:45، 3 مارس 2016 (ت ع م)

Tech News: 2016-10

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

• Files on Wikimedia Commons can now be 2 GB big. The old limit was 1 GB. [309]
• Welcome notifications now have a different symbol. English Wikipedia already had this one. [310]
• The Wikimedia memory cache servers in the Eqiad cluster have now been upgraded to Debian 8 (Jessie). Some users might have had to log in again because of this. [311]
• It is now easier to categorize images uploaded to Wikimedia Commons in the Commons Android app. [312]
• Bare attributes in tags now parse according to the HTML5 specifications. <pages from= to= section=1> will parse as <pages from="to=" section="1"> instead of <pages from="" to="" section="1"> as it used to. Please use <pages from="" to="" section=1> or <pages section=1> instead. This is mostly likely to affect pages on Wikisource projects. [313]

Problems

• Phabricator has been a bit unstable lately. This should be fixed now. [314]
• The PageView API shows wrong data between 23 February and 29 February for pages with special characters in their title. [315]
• The parsing change mentioned above caused a large number of pages to break, especially on Wikisource. [316]
• You may see falsely formatted edit links on both mobile and desktop devices. Mobile devices can also show incorrect formatted table of contents. This should be fixed soon. [317]
• Templates using TemplateData that were edited with the visual editor might have some problems in wikitext mode. This can be fixed by editing and saving the page by using the visual editor without making any changes. [318]

Changes this week

• Cross-wiki notifications will be enabled as a beta feature on all wikis on 10 March. You will be able to get notifications when something happens on another Wikimedia wiki. [319]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 8 March. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 9 March. It will be on all wikis from 10 March (calendar).
• Wikivoyages will get the Kartographer extension. Kartographer will allow <mapframe> and <maplink> tags in an article to insert an interactive map and overlay it with different markers. You can add ideas and suggestions to the Maps talk page. If you find any bugs, you can report them in Phabricator. [320]

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 8 March at 20:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• The buttons in interfaces will be simplified. Instead of white, red, green and blue buttons, in future there will only be white, red and blue ones. [321]
• The Wikimedia technical operations team plans to do some server work on 22 March. This could cause some problems, for example make it possible to read but not edit the Wikimedia wikis for a short period of time. The date for this might change. [322]

Tech News: 2016-11

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 mobile web interface no longer suggests HiDPI thumbnails. This is to take up less bandwidth on slow or expensive connections. [323]
• The search engine on wikipedia.org has been updated. [324]

Changes this week

• Wikimedia has a new backup data center in Dallas. Because of planned work on this, you will be able to read but not edit the wikis for a short period of time on both 22 March and 24 March. This could be postponed to April 18. You might lose edits if you try to save during this time. Because of a test, there will also be a couple of minutes where you can't edit the wikis on 15 March starting 07:00 UTC. You can read more about the server work. There will be more notifications and updates about this.
• Administrators and other users with advanced permissions will need to have an 8-byte long passwords. This change takes place on 15 March. Users with too short passwords will be asked to change password the next time they log in. This was decided in a discussion on Meta and is because they can use tools that can hurt the wikis. [325]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 15 March. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 16 March. It will be on all wikis from 17 March (calendar).
• The buttons in interfaces will be simplified. Instead of white, red, green and blue buttons, in future there will only be white, red and blue ones. [326]

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 15 March at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

ترشيح مقالة جيدة

 تعليق: بدايةً، أنتَ قمتَ بالتصويت ضد المقالة ثم بدأتَ تعليقك بقولك أنها تستحق أن تُصبح جيدة!. كيف ذلك؟ تصويتك ضد المقالة يعني أنك تراها سيئة ودون المستوى، وما دُمتَ ترى المقالة تستحق أن تُصبح جيدة أليس الأجدر أن تكون محايداً وتمتنع عن التصويت إلى أن تُحلَ النقاط المُختلف عليها؟!. طبعاً على كل حال أنتَ تملك مُطلق الحرية في أن تُبدي رأيك كيفما كان. أما بشأن النقاط التي ذكرتها، فهل يجب تحميل المقالة عبء النقص الذي تُعاني منه ويكيبيديا العربية؟. لقد بذلتُ جهداً كبيراً في إنشاءها، فهل يتعيّن عليّ إنشاء كل تلك المقالات لوحدي أيضاً؟. أما بالنسبة لوضع وصلة المغنية، فأين المشكلة في ذلك؟ وهل يُعقل أن ينتقِص ذلك من جودة المقالة؟. --حنان محمود (نقاش) 05:41، 15 أبريل 2016 (ت ع م)

Recent changes

• A new image scaler fixed a number of bugs for showing SVG files. Some new problems turned up. [420][421][422]

Tech News: 2016-33

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

• Last week Tech News announced you will get a notification when you mention yourself the same way as if someone else had mentioned you. This caused some problems and will happen later instead. [457]
• Creating and editing links to sections on other pages on the wiki now works again in the visual editor. [458]
• For some users, cross-wiki notifications haven't been working properly. The count has been wrong when only cross-wiki notifications were present. The cross-wiki bundle has been showing only the names of wikis and not the actual notifications. This will be fixed soon. [459][460]

Changes this week

• The login session when you choose "Keep me logged in" will now last a year. Previously it was 30 days. This will happen on August 16. [461]
• Some abuse filters will have to be updated during the week. This is because a bug will be fixed. [462]
• In compact language links, two new kinds of languages will be shown in the shorter language list: Languages that are used in the article's text, and languages where the article has a badge like "featured article" or "good article". [463][464]
• The visual editor will be available by default for logged-out editors on Wikipedias that use the Arabic script. It is already default for logged-in editors. [465]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from August 16. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from August 17. It will be on all wikis from August 18 (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on August 16 at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• Starting the week of August 22 there will be three software deployment windows. They will be at 13:00, 18:00, and 23:00 UTC. This is to have more times when software of the wikis can be updated and make it easier for developers in different parts of the world. [466]

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 ORES review tool is now available on Special:Contributions as a beta feature. It can make it easier to find contributions that are probably damaging the wikis. The ORES review tool is available on Wikidata and Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Dutch, Turkish and Russian Wikipedia. [467]
• The norm and ccnorm functions have been updated to make it easier to write abuse filters. This also affects the TitleBlacklist extension. You don't have to transform "I" and "L" to "1", "O" to "0" and "S" to "5" anymore. [468]
• The old pageview data in the "pagecounts-raw" and "pagecounts-all-sites" files is no longer being updated. You can find the new pageview data here. This happened on August 5. [469]

Problems

• Some big image files could not be thumbnailed. This has now been fixed. [470]
• When you moved a page over a redirect it would delete the redirect without saving it in the logs. This has now been fixed. [471]

Changes this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 23 August. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 24 August. It will be on all wikis from 25 August (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 23 August at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• Sometimes when you mention another user they don't get a notification. You will be able to get a notification when you successfully sent out a mention to someone or be told if they did not get a notification. This will be opt-in. You can test this on the test wiki. [472][473]
• How you add text after an edit conflict might work in a different way in the future. You can test the prototype. [474]
