== Requested update to [[Wikiversity:Interface administrators]] ==

Currently, [[Wikiversity:Interface administrators]] is a policy that includes a caveat that interface admins are not required long-term and that user right can only be added for a period of up to two weeks. I am proposing that we remove this qualification and allow for indefinite interface admin status. I think this is useful because there are reasons for tweaking the site CSS or JavaScript (e.g. to comply with dark mode), add gadgets (e.g. importing Cat-a-Lot, which I would like to do), or otherwise modifying the site that could plausibly come up on an irregular basis and requiring the overhead of a bureaucrat to add the user rights is inefficient. In particular, I am also going to request this right if the community accepts indefinite interface admins. Thoughts? —[[User:Koavf|Justin (&lt;span style=&quot;color:grey&quot;&gt;ko'''a'''vf&lt;/span&gt;)]]&lt;span style=&quot;color:red&quot;&gt;❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯&lt;/span&gt; 23:23, 17 August 2025 (UTC)

:And who will then monitor them to make sure they don't damage the project in any way, or abuse the rights acquired in this way? For large projects, this might not be a problem, but for smaller projects like the English Wikiversity, I'm not sure if there are enough users who would say, something is happening here that shouldn't be happening.

:@[[User:Koavf|Koavf]] I agree that the two-week requirement could be revised, but wouldn’t people just request access for a specific purpose anyway? Instead of granting indefinite access, they should request the specific time frame they need the rights for—until the planned fixes are completed—and then request an extension if more time is required. We could remove the two-week criterion while still keeping the access explicitly temporary.

:I think there is decent consensus for lengthening this, but not necessarily for indefinite permissions, so does anyone object to me revising it to the standard being 120 days instead of two weeks?

::Sure [[User:PieWriter|PieWriter]] ([[User talk:PieWriter|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/PieWriter|contribs]]) 23:27, 13 April 2026 (UTC)
::Thanks for proposing this, Justin. I agree with the proposal to lengthen the interface admin period from 2 weeks but not indefinitely. Can I check the source(s) for the standard being 120 days (I'm guessing policies on other projects or maybe global policy?)? In any case, I think it is reasonable for us to adopt a similar period. However, note on the current policy discussion page notes from @[[User:Dave Braunschweig|Dave Braunschweig]] arguing for shorter periods to lower risk, that's why it is 2 weeks. But if there are projects that need longer access, that should also be accommodated. Maybe we could adjust the policy to specify that ''interface admin rights can be given for 14 to 120 days depending on how long is required and what is supported by the community''. Sincerely, James -- [[User:Jtneill|Jtneill]] - &lt;small&gt;[[User talk:Jtneill|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Jtneill|c]]&lt;/small&gt; 08:29, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
:::There was there was no source for 120: it was just more than 14 and less than infinity. The &quot;14 to 120&quot; also seems reasonable. —[[User:Koavf|Justin (&lt;span style=&quot;color:grey&quot;&gt;ko'''a'''vf&lt;/span&gt;)]]&lt;span style=&quot;color:red&quot;&gt;❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯&lt;/span&gt; 14:33, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
::: On some small/medium-sized wikis, such as English Wikibooks and English Wikiquote for example, indefinite interface administrator access for administrators is allowed, but they tend not to make changes to the CSS and JS page changes unless it's truly necessary.

:::It's a good idea to make the length of this right on request or allow to be prolonged. However, IA should test large changes somewhere else, for example on the en.wv mirror, and only after testing it on the mirror, adapt it to the live version. That means I can't imagine a time-consuming operation right now. [[User:Juandev|Juandev]] ([[User talk:Juandev|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Juandev|contribs]]) 20:04, 24 April 2026 (UTC)

== [[Template:AI-generated]] ==

After going through the plethora of ChatGPT-generated pages made by [[User:Lbeaumont|Lbeaumont]] (with many more pages to go), I'd like community input on this proposal to [[Wikiversity:Artificial intelligence]] that I think would be benefical for the community:
*Resources generated by AI '''must''' be indicated as so through the project box, [[Template:AI-generated]], on either the page or the main resource (if the page is a part of a project).
I do not believe including a small note/reference that a page is AI-generated is sufficient, and I take my thinking from [[WV:Original research|Wikiversity's OR policy]] for OR work: ''Within Wikiversity, all original research should be clearly identified as such''. I believe resources created from AI should also be clearly indicated as such, especially since we are working on whether or not AI-generated resources should be allowed on the website (discussion is [[Wikiversity talk:Artificial intelligence|here]], for reference). This makes it easier for organizational purposes, and in the event ''if'' we ban AI-generated work. 

I've left a message on Lee's talk page over a week ago and did not get a response or acknowledgement, so I'd like for the community's input for this inclusion to the policy. —[[User:Atcovi|Atcovi]] [[User talk:Atcovi|(Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Atcovi|Contribs)]] 15:53, 26 January 2026 (UTC)

:I believe that existing Wikiversity policies are sufficient. Authors are responsible for the accuracy and usefulness of the content that is published. This policy covers AI-generated content that is: 1) carefully reviewed by the author publishing it, and 2) the source is noted.   [[User:Lbeaumont|Lbeaumont]] ([[User talk:Lbeaumont|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Lbeaumont|contribs]]) 19:38, 27 January 2026 (UTC)
::A small reference for pages that are substantially filled with Chat-GPT entries, like [[Real Good Religion]], [[Attributing Blame]], [[Fostering Curiosity]], are not sufficient IMO and a project box would be the best indicator that a page is AI-generated (especially when there is a mixture of human created content AND AI-generated content, as present in a lot of your pages). This is useful, especially considering the notable issues with AI (including hallucinations and fabrication of details), so viewers and support staff are aware. These small notes left on the pages are not as easily viewable as a project box or banner would be. I really don't see the issue with a clear-label guideline. —[[User:Atcovi|Atcovi]] [[User talk:Atcovi|(Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Atcovi|Contribs)]] 22:34, 27 January 2026 (UTC)
::{{ping|Lbeaumont}} I noticed your reversions [https://en.wikiversity.org/w/index.php?title=Exploring_Existential_Concerns&amp;diff=prev&amp;oldid=2788278 here] &amp; [https://en.wikiversity.org/w/index.php?title=Subjective_Awareness&amp;diff=prev&amp;oldid=2788257 here]. I'd prefer to have a clean conversation regarding this proposition. Please voice your concerns here. —[[User:Atcovi|Atcovi]] [[User talk:Atcovi|(Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Atcovi|Contribs)]] 15:53, 28 January 2026 (UTC)
:::Regarding Subjective Awareness, I distinctly recall the effort I went to to write that the old-fashioned way. It is true that ChatGPT assisted me in augmenting the list of words suggested as candidate subjective states. This is a small section of the course, is clearly marked, and makes no factual claim. Marking the entire course as AI-generated is misleading. I would have made these comments when I reverted your edit; however, the revert button does not provide that opportunity.
:::Regarding the Exploring Existential Concerns course, please note this was adapted from my EmotionalCompetency.com website, which predates the availability of LLMs. The course does include two links, clearly labeled as ChatGPT-generated. Again, marking the entire course as AI-generated is misleading.
:::On a broader issue, I don't consider your opinions to have established a carefully debated and adopted Wikiversity policy. You went ahead and modified many of my courses over my clearly stated objections. Please let this issue play out more completely before editing my courses further. Thanks.   [[User:Lbeaumont|Lbeaumont]] ([[User talk:Lbeaumont|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Lbeaumont|contribs]]) 15:11, 29 January 2026 (UTC)
::::Understood, and I respect your position. I apologize if my edits were seen as overarching. We could change the project box to &quot;a portion of this resource was generated by AI&quot;, or something along those lines. Feel free to revert my changes where you see fit, and I encourage more users to provide their input. EDIT: I've made changes to the template to indicate that a portion of the content has been generated from an LLM. —[[User:Atcovi|Atcovi]] [[User talk:Atcovi|(Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Atcovi|Contribs)]] 15:50, 29 January 2026 (UTC)
:::::Thanks for this reply. The new banner is unduly large and alarming. There is no need for alarm here. The use of AI is not harmful per se. Like any technology, it can be used to help or to harm. I take care to craft prompts carefully, point the LMM to reliable source materials, and to carefully read and verify the generated text before I publish it. This is all in keeping with long-established Wikiversity policy. We don't want to use a  [[w:One-drop_rule|one-drop rule]] here or cause a [[w:Satanic_panic|satanic panic]]. We can learn our lessons from history here. I don't see any pedagogical reason for establishing a classification of &quot;AI generated&quot;, but if there is a consensus that it is needed, perhaps it can be handled as just another category that learning resources can be assigned to. I would rather focus on identifying any errors in factual claims than on casting pejorative bias toward AI-generated content. An essay on the best practices for using LMM on Wikiveristy would be welcome.   [[User:Lbeaumont|Lbeaumont]] ([[User talk:Lbeaumont|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Lbeaumont|contribs]]) 15:58, 30 January 2026 (UTC)
::::::The new banner mimics the banner that is available on the English Wikibooks (see [[b:Template:AI-generated]] &amp; [[b:Template:Uses AI]]), so my revisions aren't unique in this aspect. At this point, I'd welcome other peoples' inputs. —[[User:Atcovi|Atcovi]] [[User talk:Atcovi|(Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Atcovi|Contribs)]] 19:40, 30 January 2026 (UTC)

== How do I start making pages? ==
Is there a notability guideline for Wikiversity? What is the sourcing policy for information? What is the Manual of Style? What kind of educational content qualifies for Wikiversity? All the introduction pages are a bit unclear.

:It’s a little slow, but I’m happy to know that Wikiversity is a place that I think should provide value even if the activity of editors fluctuates. If it’s any consolation your edits may be encouraging for some anonymous newcomer to start edits on their own! I think it’s hard to build community when there is such a wide variety of interests and a smaller starting userbase. Also sometimes the getting into a particular topic that already exists can be intimidating because some relics (large portals, school, categories, etc.) have intricate, unique and generally messy levels of organization.

== Inactivity policy for Curators ==

== [[Wikiversity:Artificial intelligence]] to become an official policy ==
{{Archive top|After running for a week, there is consensus, alongside comments, for [[Wikiversity:Artificial intelligence]] to be implemented as an official policy.

With the introduction of AI-material, and some material just plain disruptive, its imperative that Wikiversity catches up with its sister projects and implements an official AI policy that we can work with. The recent issue of [[User:Lbeaumont|Lbeaumont]]'s 50+ articles that contain significantly large AI-generated material has made me came to the Colloquium. This user has also been removing the [[Template:AI-generated]] template from their pages, calling it &quot;misleading&quot;, &quot;alarmist&quot;, and &quot;pejorative&quot; - which is all just simply nonsensical rationales. Not to even mention this user's contributions to the English Wikipedia have been [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Inner_Development_Goals contested] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Multipolar_trap removed] a couple of times (for being low-quality and clearly LLM-generated), highlighting the need for an actual policy to be implemented here on Wikiversity. I would like to ping {{ping|Juandev}} and {{ping|Jtneill}} for their thoughts as well, since I'd like this to be implemented as soon as possible. 

Wikiversity has a significant issue with implementing anti-disruptive measures, hence why we have received numerous complaints as a community about our quality. I originally was reverting the removal of the templates, but realized that this is still a proposed policy, which it shouldn't be anymore. It should be a recognized Wikiversity policy. 14:54, 10 March 2026 (UTC) —[[User:Atcovi|Atcovi]] [[User talk:Atcovi|(Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Atcovi|Contribs)]] 14:54, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

:::Toward a Justified and Parsimonious AI Policy 
:::As we collaborate to develop a consensus policy on the use of Large Language Models, it is wise to begin by considering the needs of the various stakeholders to the policy.
:::The stakeholders are:
:::1)     The users, 
:::2)     The source providers, and
:::3)     The editors
:::There may also be others with a minor stake in this policy, including the population at large.
:::The many needs of the users are currently addressed by long-standing [[Wikiversity:Policies|Wikiversity policies]], so we can focus on what, if any, additional needs arise as LLMs are deployed. 
:::As always, users need assurance that propositional statements are accurate. This is covered by the existing policy on [[Wikiversity:Verifiability|verifiably]]. In addition, it is expected by both the users and those that provide materials used as sources for the text are [[Wikiversity:Cite sources|accurately attributed]]. This is also covered by [[Wikiversity:Cite sources|existing policies]].
:::To respect the time and effort of editors, a parsimonious policy will unburden editors from costly requirements that exceed benefits to the users.
:::Finally, it is important to recognize that because attention is our most valuable seizing attention unnecessarily is a form of theft. 
:::The following proposed policy statement results from these considerations:
:::Recommended Policy statement:
:::·       Editors [[Wikiversity:Verifiability|verify the accuracy]] of propositional statements, regardless of the source.
:::·       Editors [[Wikiversity:Cite sources|attribute the source]] of propositional statements. In the case of LLM, cite the LLM model and the prompt used.
:::·       Use of various available templates to mark the use of LLM are optional. Templates that are flexible in noting the type and extend of LLM usage are preferred. Templates that avoid unduly distracting or alarming the user are preferred.

== New titles for user right nominations ==
&lt;div class=&quot;cd-moveMark&quot;&gt;''Moved from [[Wikiversity talk:Candidates for Custodianship#New titles for user right nominations]].  [[User:Codename Noreste|Codename Noreste]] ([[User talk:Codename Noreste|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Codename Noreste|contribs]]) 23:20, 17 April 2026 (UTC)''&lt;/div&gt;

I would like to propose the following retitles should a user be nominated for any of the following user rights:
* Curator: Candidates for Curatorship
* Bureaucrat: Candidates for Bureaucratship
The reason is that many curator (and probably bureaucrat) requests have run solely under {{tq|Candidates for Custodianship}}, but that title might sound misleading (especially in regards to the permission a user is requesting). CheckUser and Oversight (suppressor) are not included above since no user was nominated for these sensitive permissions, probably.

:And it's not that when someone at the beginning misplaced the request, no one thought to move it and the others copied it. Even today, it would be possible to simply take it all and move it. Otherwise, for me, the more fundamental problem is that there is [[Wikiversity:Curators|no approved policy for curators]] than where the requests are based. Curators then operate in a certain vacuum and if one of them &quot;breaks out of the chain&quot;, the average user doesn't have many transparent tools to deal with it, because there is no policy.

== WikiEducator has closed ==

Some of you may know of a similar project to Wikiversity, called [https://wikieducator.org/Main_Page WikiEducator], championed by [https://oerfoundation.org/about/staff/wayne-mackintosh/ Wayne Mackintosh][https://www.linkedin.com/posts/waynemackintosh_important-notice-about-the-oer-foundation-activity-7405113051688931329-Nhm9/][https://openeducation.nz/killed-not-starved/].

It seems [https://openeducation.nz/terminating-oer-foundation their foundation has closed] and they are no longer operating.

They had done quite a bit of outreach (e.g., in the Pacific and Africa) to get educators using wiki.

The WikiEducator content is still available in MediaWiki - and potentially could be imported to Wikiversity ([https://wikieducator.org/WikiEducator:Copyrights CC-BY-SA] is the default license).

The closing of WikiEducator arguably makes the nurturing of Wikiversity even more important.

== Wikinews is ending ==

Apparently mainly due to low editorial activity, low public interest, but also failure to achieve the goals from the proposal for the creation of the project, the Wikinews project is ending after years of discussions ([[Meta:Proposal for Closing Wikinews|some reading]]).

And I would be interested to see how Wikiversity is doing in the monitored metrics. We probably have more editors than Wikinews had, but what about consumers and achieving the goals? [[User:Juandev|Juandev]] ([[User talk:Juandev|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Juandev|contribs]]) 19:14, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

:Wikiversity's biggest issue in recent times was the hosting of low-quality, trash content. Thankfully we've done a great job in removing pseudoscience and other embarrassingly trash content (Wikidebates, for example), but the biggest concern moving forward is proper maintenance IMO. I've caught several pseudoscience pages being created within the last few months that could easily have flown under the radar (ex, [[The Kelemen Dilemma: Causal Collapse and Axiomatic Instability]]), so I'd urge our custodians/curators to be on the lookout for this type of content. Usually an AI-overview can point this type of content out relatively well.
:In terms of visibility, I believe Wikiversity is a high-traffic project. I remember my [[Mathematical Properties]] showing up on the first page of Google when searching up &quot;math properties&quot; for the longest time (and is still showing up in the first page 'till this day!). Besides, Wikinews hosted a lot of short-term content (the nature of news articles), while Wikiversity hosts content that can still be useful a decade later (ex, [[A Reader's Guide to Annotation]]). 
:I think we are on a better path than we were a few months ago, and I do want to thank everyone here who has been helping out with maintaining our website! —[[User:Atcovi|Atcovi]] [[User talk:Atcovi|(Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Atcovi|Contribs)]] 20:48, 1 April 2026 (UTC)
:For what it's worth, the group that did that study has since disbanded, so no one is monitoring the other sister projects in the same way. Additionally, Wikinews had some catastrophic server issues due to the maintenance of [[:m:Extension:DynamicPageList]] which don't apply here. Your questions are still worth addressing, but I just wanted to cut off any concern at the pass about Wikiversity being in the same precarious situation. Wikiversity is definitely the biggest &quot;lagging behind&quot; or &quot;failure&quot; project now that Wikinews is being shuttered, but I don't see any near- or medium-term pathway to closing Wikiversity. —[[User:Koavf|Justin (&lt;span style=&quot;color:grey&quot;&gt;ko'''a'''vf&lt;/span&gt;)]]&lt;span style=&quot;color:red&quot;&gt;❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯&lt;/span&gt; 00:46, 2 April 2026 (UTC)

== Action Required: Update templates/modules for electoral maps (Migrating from P1846 to P14226) ==

Hello everyone,

This is a notice regarding an ongoing data migration on Wikidata that may affect your election-related templates and Lua modules (such as &lt;code&gt;Module:Itemgroup/list&lt;/code&gt;).

'''The Change:'''&lt;br /&gt;
Currently, many templates pull electoral maps from Wikidata using the property [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]], combined with the qualifier [[:d:Property:P180|P180]]: [[:d:Q19571328|Q19571328]]. 

We are migrating this data (across roughly 4,000 items) to a newly created, dedicated property: '''[[:d:Property:P14226|P14226]]'''.

'''What You Need To Do:'''&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure your templates and infoboxes do not break or lose their maps, please update your local code to fetch data from [[:d:Property:P14226|P14226]] instead of the old [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]] + [[:d:Property:P180|P180]] structure. A [[m:Wikidata/Property Migration: P1846 to P14226/List|list of pages]] was generated using Wikimedia Global Search.

'''Deadline:'''&lt;br /&gt;
We are temporarily retaining the old data on [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]] to allow for a smooth transition. However, to complete the data cleanup on Wikidata, the old [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]] statements will be removed after '''May 1, 2026'''. Please update your modules and templates before this date to prevent any disruption to your wiki's election articles.

Let us know if you have any questions or need assistance with the query logic. Thank you for your help!

== Advice needed: A Neurodiversity-inspired Idea/observation ==

If I want the greatest participation of others to &quot;provide constructive criticism to my idea&quot; or to &quot;shoot down my idea&quot; or &quot;idea&quot;.

What I've called it so far is &quot;The Neurodiversity-inspired Idea&quot;. At other times I used more sensationalist wording but here on Wikiversity I don't dare do that. I actually woke up with thinking about putting this into my userspace draft: &quot;Personal Observations Made By Meeting Autistic and Non-Autistic Adults&quot;.

My ultimate goal is to stop blathering about my &quot;idea&quot; to friend and family without feeling my &quot;methodology&quot; is going into any progressive direction whatsoever. My latest encounter was somewhat constructive though. A friend of a friend who worked with people presenting ideas in attempting to getting grants. I don't want a grant. I just want to figure out how I can express my &quot;idea&quot; in a way so that I can more clearly figure out what flaws it got.

At the same time I tend to overthink. If anyone thinks etherpad might be a good place and considering Wikimedia already got an etherpad at https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/ if anyone feels like they know me better in the future feel free to suggest a &quot;session&quot; on etherpad.

'''If I don't receive a reply to this in 1 week's time I will begin to explore this &quot;idea&quot; into my userspace''' unless you replied and refrained me from doing so, of course. Then maybe after &quot;developing it there&quot; I might reference it to you another future time here in the Colloquium, with my &quot;idea&quot; still in my userspace draft. This &quot;idea&quot; is sort of a burden, I'm happy I've made the choice to get rid of it and hopefully move on with my life, unless there is something to this &quot;idea&quot;. 

My failure is probably evident: I feel I haven't told you anything. Same happened to when I talked to friends and family. In danger of overthinking it further I'll publish this right now. I need to &quot;keep it together&quot; [[User:ThinkingScience|ThinkingScience]] ([[User talk:ThinkingScience|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/ThinkingScience|contribs]]) 10:36, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

:Good on you putting it out there ... and hitting publish :). I'd say go for it (no need to wait), give birth to your idea and share about it here and elsewhere. Let it take shape and see where it might go. In many ways, this is exactly what an open collaborative learning community should be doing. Others might not know well how to respond, so perhaps consider creating some questions to accompany the idea.

:May I think that you should not add deadlines ; being read, and rising interest for collaboration, or even simply for exchange of thoughts, such an effective meeting event loads a huge bunch of unprobability, which time can help to… somehow diminish. Maybe, I would advice you having a central place for developping your ideas, your needs, your advances, maybe a page in your own user zone, and from time to time, depending your feeling, it could be every trimester or so, or more frequently, you could write a short account of progress (or even of no progress), or a call for participation, in such a place as this present one ; I think that will increase much exposure of your projet.

:::&quot;May I think that you should not add deadlines ; being read, and rising interest for collaboration, or even simply for exchange of thoughts, such an effective meeting event loads a huge bunch of unprobability, which time can help to… somehow diminish.&quot;
::Thank you Eric for this comment. Trust in time is how I interpret it. I should not feel like I need to be in a hurry. I'll try to give this time. Thank you!
:::&quot;Maybe, I would advice you having a central place for developping your ideas, your needs, your advances, maybe a page in your own user zone, and from time to time, depending your feeling, it could be every trimester or so, or more frequently, you could write a short account of progress (or even of no progress), or a call for participation, in such a place as this present one ; I think that will increase much exposure of your projet.&quot;
::A central place for developing or making &quot;project notes&quot; regarding the Neurodiversity idea on my userspace, I might need that, like a diary or &quot;project notes&quot; of the Neurodiversity idea similar to my course notes regarding my experience with Coursera.
::Any actions I take are going to be related to my Userspace from now on but I'll also update the draft when necessary. Now in the beginning I might be working daily to once every 3 days on both the draft and the daily notes I plan to make.
:::&quot;Maybe also, if you can find a project name, not necessarily very meaningfull by itseilf (at least it will gain signification with time, as your project develops), that will serve as a kind-of hook, and make your announcement titles more visible.&quot;
::Thank you for the advice. I was brainstorming yesterday about it. I concluded that since I've not yet developed a methodology that adheres to &quot;Do no harm&quot; and this is my first time working my &quot;idea&quot; into a way that is compatible with how projects develop on English Wikiversity this is new to me. My methodology isn't developed and therefore trying to get attention to my project through a name can wait. Yesterday I figured out a silly title that has nothing to do with the project: &quot;Planetary Awareness Potato Cabbage Rolls&quot; or something like that. Google output read that no such thing exists so I wanted it mainly to be unique. I don't want to raise attention that I'm unsure whether I'll actually be capable of developing a methodology for but project notes is my best bet so far in tracking my progress. Every day I think about this &quot;idea&quot; but I need to improve the important parts.

== Add some user rights to the curator user group? ==

By default, only custodians have the ability to mark new pages as patrolled (&lt;code&gt;patrol&lt;/code&gt;) and have their own page creations automatically marked as patrolled (&lt;code&gt;autopatrol&lt;/code&gt;). I am proposing both of the following:
* Curators can mark new pages as patrolled, helping on reducing the backlog of new, unpatrolled pages.
* New pages made by curators will be automatically marked as patrolled by the MediaWiki software.
Before we implement this, I would suggest implementing a proposed guideline for marking new pages as patrolled for curators and custodians.

== Is anyone interested in Neurodiversity? ==

Is anyone interested in Neurodiversity? Is there anyone here who is interested for Neurodiversity to be &quot;something more&quot; than it already is? Does anyone here consider Neurodiversity one of the &quot;harder topics&quot; to work on or discuss? Does anyone here have an opinion about the [[Neurodiversity Movement]]? So these questions don't appear like &quot;out of a vacuum&quot; I can tell you a bit about my background:

Many years ago I got a psychiatric diagnosis &quot;Asperger's&quot;. After I stepped out of the office and my Äsperger's was 'concluded', I stepped out into the street and thought my first negative thought(but the positive thought followed after). The thought was about concentration camps in the second world war and that the world seemed to be going into the direction of &quot;labeling others&quot;. I was unsure whether this was &quot;real science&quot; and sort of &quot;challenged myself&quot; to make up my own mind after meeting people that had been given this diagnosis. The more adults with this diagnosis I met the more I started seeing &quot;patterns&quot;.

Was it a coincidence that the first person with Asperger's I met reminded me about my father later after I had plenty of times of experience with interacting with him? None of the people I interacted with online through IRC text chat...I felt I got any clue about how &quot;their brains work&quot;. Only when I met one person from the Asperger's chat community in person we both realized that whatever we experienced was akin to the &quot;chaos theory&quot;. He told me about &quot;chaos theory&quot; while I didn't know even what that term meant but I guess I 'read between the lines'. My question that I linger on still today is &quot;did he understand about me what I think I understood about him?&quot;? That our brains had the same configuration? Most autistic adults who meet other autistic adults usually get disappointed. They think the diagnosis will help them meet somebody like themselves and then they realize the great diversity in the autistic spectrum created by Psychiatry.

I later stopped interacting with autistic communities that much, I felt that it did not benefit me. Also Neurodiversity's &quot;neurotypes&quot; interested me for a while until I realized I had &quot;misunderstood everything&quot; about them and how they are used in the Neurodiversity Movement or &quot;Neurodiversity community&quot; if that even can precisely be defined? I doubt it but if you want to contribute to the [[Neurodiversity Movement]]. My previous attempts failed as I got more and more confused. I think a community project needs a community. With a lack of that I don't think it is worth my time. If any of you would like to work on that project let me know on my talk page.

So I was kinda lost and was talking to my friend and psychologist and I realized if I never talk about my idea to anyone in a &quot;comprehensive way&quot; or show that it matters to me nothing is going to ever happen. So I started talking about my &quot;idea&quot; more. Nobody could understand the &quot;idea&quot; because I had not developed my skills regarding where to start...although the process had already started &quot;automatically&quot; and that's why I often think of &quot;well my brain sort of activated me&quot;. I don't feel like I did have a plan and this idea happened. It happened &quot;by itself&quot;. My brain reacted to what I was seeing in a video or stream.

I value interaction highly in this idea. I think it would be helpful to make a community of people who are not paranoid about stuff that can express itself like &quot;don't analyze me!&quot;, &quot;don't compare me to anyone!&quot;. 

On the contrary, more often than not those adults who were diagnosed were actually openly comparing themselves with each other and I think that is healthy in a &quot;science&quot; way if done the &quot;right way&quot; which probably means &quot;Do no harm&quot;.

I found video material is important but I'm very unsure if uploading own video material to Wikimedia Commons would constitute a &quot;reasonable&quot; use of the resources there. Maybe somebody here needs to ask more questions to me that I should answer before that happens. I also know the '''be bold''' so I could just do what I think might be ok. Though I work better in a group as long as I know what &quot;group configurations&quot; help me. This is in a non-profit way. Since the state supported me this might be a way I am trying to &quot;give back&quot; to the state and &quot;the world&quot;. May seem overly ambitious and crazy but this thing gives me energy. It gives me hope when trying to develop this idea.

:The scope of Wikiversity is very broad and is basically about more-or-less any learning material. We have made it a point to not have duplicative content of other WMF projects, but since Wikinews is being shuttered, I personally am fine with writing news articles here. One thing that is not controversial at all is a learning resource &lt;em&gt;about&lt;/em&gt; how to write news: that could be hugely useful here and could involve the process of writing news stories to learn and to share back and forth with an editor or fact-checker. In fact, I'd support an entire namespace dedicated to keeping the notion of Wikinews alive here. —[[User:Koavf|Justin (&lt;span style=&quot;color:grey&quot;&gt;ko'''a'''vf&lt;/span&gt;)]]&lt;span style=&quot;color:red&quot;&gt;❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯&lt;/span&gt; 23:38, 1 May 2026 (UTC)

:::::Honestly, there are very few policies and guidelines here. I think the best way to write a news story would be in a manner that is obvious and instructive. So, for instance, it's common to use the &quot;pyramid style&quot; when you're writing news, so if you were to write a story that makes it very clear that you are using that approach, that would be helpful. —[[User:Koavf|Justin (&lt;span style=&quot;color:grey&quot;&gt;ko'''a'''vf&lt;/span&gt;)]]&lt;span style=&quot;color:red&quot;&gt;❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯&lt;/span&gt; 02:08, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

Welcome to the test and quiz department, for all Wikiversity's [[w:quiz|test and quiz]] needs.  The page will eventually teach you how to write quizzes and tests for wikiversity and when and where to use them.

==Current functionality==
Wikiversity is still producing Test and Quiz functionality. Currently available is what are known as a Self-Quizzes, Flashcards, and Handout tests.

=== Quiz ===

The [[Help:Quiz|wikiversity's Quiz extension]] allows you to create a quiz with a simplified syntax.

&lt;quiz display=&quot;simple&quot;&gt;
{ this is a question }
+ this is a right answer
-this is a wrong answer
&lt;/quiz&gt;

===Self-Quizzes===
Self Quizzes are quizzes that can be placed on a lesson page or a separate page.  They are not graded in the sense that users may answer as many times as they like and no question affects any other question.  The answers are hidden from view until the &quot;expand&quot; button above the answer is clicked.

====When to use====
Self Quizzes can be used as examples in lesson plans, such as in [[Ohm's Law]], or as stand alone quizzes to test knowledge of a chapter of a book, such as [[College Algebra/GrammarQuiz]].  When writing a question, make sure that the answer is not obvious. The best questions are the ones that make the test-taker think about what they have learnt. You should consider the difficulty of a question before adding it to a quiz.  If a question is too easy, you should examine whether or not it is really necessary, or consider posing a more difficult question.

====Usage====
Copy and paste the template into the page where the quiz should be made available.  Don't forget to delete the spaces before the pipes. There will be multiple types of quizes: two answer, three answer, four answer, or five answer.  Presently only the type with four answers works, pending research into a multi-answer system.

:{{ABCD
:| Question = Question goes here
:| Atext = A text goes here
:| Aanswer = Answer for A goes here
:| Btext = B text goes here
:| Banswer = Answer for B goes here
:| Ctext = C text goes here
:| Canswer = Answer for C goes here
:| Dtext = D text goes here
:| Danswer = Answer for D goes here
:}}

This template will give you:

{{ABCD
    | Question = Question goes here
    | Atext = A text goes here
    | Btext = B text goes here
    | Ctext = C text goes here
    | Dtext = D text goes here
    | Aanswer = Answer for A goes here
    | Banswer = Answer for B goes here
    | Canswer = Answer for C goes here
    | Danswer = Answer for D goes here
    }}

Note that choices are automatically bold, but the answers are not. The number of questions can be increased to 5 by using the template ABCDE, and the answers can be randomly placed by using the template ABCDR.  Both work the same as ABCD.

===Math questions===d
Math questions have special functionality.  Functions can be evaluated by using &lt;nowiki&gt;{{ #expr: }}&lt;/nowiki&gt;.  &lt;nowiki&gt;{{ #expr: 1+1}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; produces: {{ #expr: 1+1}}.  Random numbers can be produced by using the current second &lt;nowiki&gt;{{#time:s}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; (which is currently {{#time:s}}).  This produces a random number from 0 to 59.  However, the random number will stay the same until the page is purged from the user's computer memory. Also, only one random number can be generated that way.  &lt;nowiki&gt;{{#time:m}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; ({{#time:m}}) can be used, but it doesn't change as quickly.

=== Picture Questions ===

For the more visual oriented, a picture may be included in a self quiz, such as the template used in the Biology department.

:{{Whatplantquiz
:| First image = Wikiversity-logo-Snorky.svg
:| Binomial = Wikiversutus
:| Common name = Wikiversity
:| Wikipedia = Wikiversity
:| Wikibooks = Wikiversity
:| Commons = Wikiversity
:}}

That produces:

{{Whatplantquiz|
| First image = Wikiversity-logo-Snorky.svg
| Binomial = Wikiversutus
| Common name = Wikiversity
| Wikipedia = Wikiversity
| Wikibooks = Wikiversity
| Commons = Wikiversity
}}

===Flashcards===

When studying a large amount of simple concepts or questions, users and editors might not want all the information to appear at the same time.  In the future, large databases of facts and concepts will be stored on Wikiversity.  In order to test a sampling of knowledge, a system known as &quot;Flashcards&quot; has been created.

====Usage====

The flashcard system has many levels.  Inorder to make a card around the flash card, the entire system can had a div header like:

&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;multilingual&quot; style=&quot;background-color:#f7f8ff; text-align:justify; padding:5px; border:1px solid #8888aa; border-right-width:2px; border-bottom-width:2px; margin-bottom:2em&quot; &gt;
&lt;/nowiki&gt;

Remember to close the box at the end with a &lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt; tag.  The rest of the system is a very large switch statement, written as

&lt;nowiki&gt;:{{#switch:{{#expr:({{#time:U}} mod 3) + 1}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:|1=
:This is the visible part of the first flashcard

:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;clear:both&quot; class=&quot;NavFrame&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;NavHead&quot; align=&quot;{{{alignT|center}}}&quot;&gt;''Solution''&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;NavContent&quot; style=&quot;display:none; text-align:left&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;

:This is the hidden part of the first flashcard

:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;NavEnd&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;

:|2=
:This is the visible part of the second flashcard

:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;clear:both&quot; class=&quot;NavFrame&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;NavHead&quot; align=&quot;{{{alignT|center}}}&quot;&gt;''Solution''&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;NavContent&quot; style=&quot;display:none; text-align:left&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;

:This is the hidden part of the second flashcard

:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;NavEnd&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;

:|3=
:This is the visible part of the third flashcard

:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;clear:both&quot; class=&quot;NavFrame&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;NavHead&quot; align=&quot;{{{alignT|center}}}&quot;&gt;''Solution''&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;NavContent&quot; style=&quot;display:none; text-align:left&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;

:This is the hidden part of the third flashcard

:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;NavEnd&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;
:&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;

:}}

'''This code produced''':

&lt;div class=&quot;multilingual&quot; style=&quot;background-color:#f7f8ff; text-align:justify; padding:5px; border:1px solid #8888aa; border-right-width:2px; border-bottom-width:2px; margin-bottom:2em&quot; &gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;NavContent&quot; style=&quot;display:none; text-align:left&quot;&gt;

This is the hidden part of the first flashcard

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;NavEnd&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

|2=
This is the visible part of the second flashcard

&lt;div style=&quot;clear:both&quot; class=&quot;NavFrame&quot;&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;NavHead&quot; align=&quot;{{{alignT|center}}}&quot;&gt;''Solution''&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;NavContent&quot; style=&quot;display:none; text-align:left&quot;&gt;

This is the hidden part of the second flashcard

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;NavEnd&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

|3=

&lt;div style=&quot;clear:both&quot; class=&quot;NavFrame&quot;&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;NavHead&quot; align=&quot;{{{alignT|center}}}&quot;&gt;''Solution''&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;NavContent&quot; style=&quot;display:none; text-align:left&quot;&gt;

This is the hidden part of the third flashcard

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;NavEnd&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
}}

&lt;/div&gt;

To produce the random number, the expression &lt;nowiki&gt;{{#expr:({{#time:U}} mod 3) + 1}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; is used.  For other than three cards, change the number 3 to the number of cards needed.

==== The Calculation ====

The expression &lt;nowiki&gt;{{#expr:({{#time:U}} mod 3) + 1}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; is based on the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:ParserFunctions Parser Functions].  &lt;nowiki&gt;{{#expr}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; performs the calculation.  &lt;nowiki&gt;{{#time:U}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; returns the number of seconds since January 1, 1970.  mod is the modulo operator, which performs integer division and returns the remainder.

The effect is that this expression takes a big number that changes every second, divides by the number of cards in the flashcard switch statement, and gets the remainder.  It then adds 1 so that the result is one-based rather than zero-based.

For example, if the number of cards is 3, the remainder from the calculation will be 0, 1, or 2, no matter how many seconds have elapsed since 1970.  Adding 1 returns a value of 1, 2, or 3.  This value is then passed to the switch statement to selec

====Purge/Get new card====

Since mediawiki heavily caches pages to lighten load (stores a copy of the page without reloading it), to get a new card, the stored copy must first be purged.  This also is needed on random math questions. A link such as: [http://en.wikiversity.org/w/index.php?title=Test_and_Quiz&amp;action=purge Get new card] is needed.

==== Another Approach ====

Flashcards may also be produced using the &lt;nowiki&gt;{{Collapsible toggle}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; template.  This template is more flexible in that it is a bare &lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt; that can be styled to meet the needs of the page design rather than the limitations of the NavFrame class.  For example:

'''Click on the card text to see the answer.'''
{{Robelbox|title=Flashcard Example|theme=1|width=50%}}
&lt;div style=&quot;margin-left:1em;&quot;&gt;
{{#switch:{{#expr:({{#time:U}} mod 3) + 1}}

|1=
{{Collapsible toggle|collapsed=true|style=margin-bottom:1em;|toggle=1
|This is the visible part of the first flashcard.
|&lt;br&gt;This is the hidden part of the first flashcard.
}}

|2=
{{Collapsible toggle|collapsed=true|style=margin-bottom:1em;|toggle=2
|This is the visible part of the second flashcard.
|&lt;br&gt;This is the hidden part of the second flashcard.
}}

|3=
{{Collapsible toggle|collapsed=true|style=margin-bottom:1em;|toggle=3
|This is the visible part of the third flashcard.
|&lt;br&gt;This is the hidden part of the third flashcard.
}}

}}

{{purge | Next Card}}
&lt;/div&gt;
{{Robelbox/close}}

===Handout tests===

For the purpose of having a graded test, tests can be created via a template, and the answers can be added in later by the test maker.  The &quot;students&quot; can take the tests by editing the template, and the grades can be collected by looking at the history of the page that the template was placed on at the time the answers were edited in by the &quot;teacher&quot;.  Note that there still is no way that looking at other people's tests can be prevented at this time.  This encourages collaberative test taking.  &quot;Teachers&quot; should be reminded that these tests are not to facilitate a pass/fail type mentality.  These types of tests are meant to allow for critical thought as opposed to randomly clicking through the answers as is possible with the self quizes.

To create a template test, enter Template:Nameoftest in the search function, and create the test in the new page.  Test makers can start off with the sample code found on the sameple test: &lt;nowiki&gt;[[Template:Sampletest]]&lt;/nowiki&gt; Note the active part of the code is contained in the include only tags.   This code can be substitutide into the students talk page, or a subpage thereof as

:{{Sampletest
:| Q1=D
:| Q2=B
:}}

Which will produce

{{Sampletest| Q1=D | Q2=B}}

Note that in practice the template can be substituted without the answers, with a ? instead of B and D.  The instructions can be altered by editing the line beginging with instructions, and the questions can be edited just like with the self quiz.

===Timer===
The timer can be set and reset for the test, to let test takers know when the answers will be edited into the test.  The current code shows &lt;nowiki&gt;{{#expr:31-((({{CURRENTMONTH}}-11)*31)+({{CURRENTDAY}}-2))}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; which corrisponds to a month long test starting on 11/2.  To reset the timer to another start day, change the month from 11 to the current month and the day from 2 to the current day. Simmilar schemes can be done for day long or year long tests.  Note the current formulation of the timer does not function properly when the new year is within the month of the test.  To shorten the test length, edit the first 31 to the number of days that the test should go.

====Answers====
When the time has run out, edit the subpages of the your test, and they will be automatically included in the test takers pages.  Note that once the test is over, the template can be reused, though the history of the previous test will be stored, so do not use the exact questions.

==Things to do==

*&lt;s&gt;Look into multi-question templates&lt;/s&gt;
*Look into adding buttons like the multilingual on on beta
*Look into finding or making a standard random number generator
*&lt;s&gt;Bug meta devs into making a gradable version&lt;/s&gt;
*&lt;s&gt;Use random number generator to make a flashcard system for mirwin's java cards.&lt;/s&gt;
*Make a random test generator

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Wikimedia Foundation has shared some guiding questions for the July 2026–June 2027 Annual Plan on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Annual Plan/2026-2027/Product &amp; Technology OKRs|Meta]] and ''[[diffblog:2025/12/10/shaping-wikimedia-foundations-2026-2027-annual-goals-key-questions-for-the-wikimedia-movement/|Diff]]''. These focus on global trends, faster and healthier experimentation, better support for newcomers, strengthening editors and advanced users, improving collaboration across projects, and growing and retaining readership. Feedback and ideas are welcome on the [[m:Talk:Wikimedia Foundation Annual Plan/2026-2027|talk page]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* As part of the current work of Community Tech team on the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist/W372|Multiple watchlists]] project, the display of [[Special:EditWatchlist|EditWatchlist]] will be updated as a first step towards multiple watchlists. Additionally, the pagination on [[Special:Search|Search]] will be updated too, as a part of the work on the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist/W186|Revamp pagination / page navigation]] wish. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T411596]
* [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|The Global Watchlist]] is a MediaWiki [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] that lets you see your watchlists from different wikis on the same page. It was recently updated to look more like the regular [[Special:Watchlist|Watchlist]], such as preparing it for temporary accounts in IP masking (including rerouting user links to contributions pages), making page titles bold, and opening links in edit summaries and tags in new browser tabs. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T398361][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T298919][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T273526][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T286309]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:28}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:28|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, the issue where global blocks did not have the option to disable sending emails, has now been fixed, and will be available for use in the week of January 13. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401293]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Citation tool|VisualEditor citation tool]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Reference Previews|Reference Previews]] now support &quot;map&quot; as a reference type. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T411083]

'''Updates for editors'''
* The tray shown on [[Special:Diff|Special:Diff]] in mobile view has been redesigned. It is now collapsed by default, and incorporates a link to undo the edit being viewed, making it easier for mobile editors and reviewers to take action while keeping the interface uncluttered. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T402297] 
* [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|The Global Watchlist]] lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on one page. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] continues to improve — it now automatically determines the text direction (ensuring correct display of sites with unusual domain names) and shows detailed descriptions for log actions. Later this week, a new permanent link for page creations and CSS classes for each entry element will be added. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T412505][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T287929][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T262768][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414135]

For example, the previously observed issue in Vector 2022, where anchor link targets were obscured by the sticky header, has now been addressed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T406114]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* As mentioned in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2025/44|October 2025 deprecation announcement]], MediaWiki Interfaces team will begin sunsetting all transform endpoints containing a trailing slash from the MediaWiki REST API the week of January 26. Changes are expected to roll out to all wikis on or before January 30th. All API users currently calling them are encouraged to transition to the non-trailing slash versions. Both endpoint variations can be found, compared, and tested using the [https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RestSandbox REST Sandbox]. If you have questions or encounter any problems, please file a ticket in Phabricator to the [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/6931/ #MW-Interfaces-Team board].
* Interactive reference documentation for the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia REST API|Wikimedia REST API]] has moved. Requests to API docs previously hosted through [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/RESTBase|RESTBase]] (e.g.: &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/&lt;/code&gt;) are now redirected to the [[w:en:Special:RestSandbox|REST Sandbox]].
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata Platform|WMF Wikidata Platform team]] (WDP) has published its [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:Wikidata Platform team/Newsletter|January 2026 newsletter]]. It includes updates on the legacy full-graph endpoint decommissioning, the User-Agent policy change, the monthly Blazegraph migration office hours, and efforts to reduce regressions caused by the legacy endpoint shutdown. As a reminder, you can [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Global message delivery/Targets/WDP team updates|subscribe to the WDP newsletter]]!
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.46/wmf.12|MediaWiki]]

'''Meetings and events'''
* The [[mw:Wikimedia Hackathon Northwestern Europe 2026|Wikimedia Hackathon Northwestern Europe 2026]] will take place on 13-14 March 2026 in Arnhem, the Netherlands. Applications opened mid-December and will close soon or when capacity is reached. It's a two-day, technically oriented hackathon bringing together Wikimedians from the region. Hope to see you there!

Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2026/05|Translations]] are available.

'''Updates for editors'''
* Wikimedia Foundation invites comments on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Year1 Reflections and Proposed Way Forward 2026 Update|proposed future]] of the [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council|Product and Technology Advisory Council]] until 28 February.
* All users with registered accounts can now use passkeys for [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Two-factor authentication|two-factor authentication]] (2FA). Passkeys are a simple way to log in without using a second device. They verify the user's identity using a fingerprint, face scan, or a PIN code. To set up a passkey, first set up a regular 2FA method. Currently, to log in with a passkey, users must also use a password. Later this quarter, passwordless login will allow users to log in with a single click and a passkey. Users with advanced rights will also be required to have 2FA enabled. This is part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security|Account Security]] project.
* Unregistered contributors on blocked IPs or blocked IP ranges can now interact on-wiki to appeal a block by creating a temporary account to appeal a block on the user talk page, unless the &quot;prevent this user from editing their own talk page&quot; is enabled. This solves the problem of logged-out users unable to use the default unblock process via user talk page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T398673]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:20}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:20|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) methods description on the management page has been updated. It is now clearer and easier for users to understand and make use of. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T332385]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* A new AbuseFilter variable, &lt;code&gt;account_type&lt;/code&gt;, has been added to provide a reliable way to determine the account type being created in the &lt;code&gt;createaccount&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;autocreateaccount&lt;/code&gt; actions. As part of this change, the variable &lt;code&gt;accountname&lt;/code&gt; has been renamed to &lt;code&gt;account_name&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code&gt;accountname&lt;/code&gt; is now deprecated. Edit filter managers should update any filters that use hardcoded account type checks or the deprecated variable. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414049]
* Image thumbnails that are requested in non-standard sizes, and using non-standard methods such as direct requests to &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;upload.wikimedia.org/…&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; will stop working in the near future. This change is to prevent ongoing external abuse by web-scrapers and bots. Some users with custom CSS/JS, Interface Admins who can fix gadgets and local skins, and Tool-authors, will need to update their code to use standard thumbnail sizes. [[phab:T414805|Details, search-links, and examples of how to fix them, are available in the task]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* The &quot;{{int:pageinfo-toolboxlink}}&quot; feature, which gives validating information about a page ([{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|action=info}} example]), now automatically includes a table of contents. If there is a local [[{{ns:8}}:Pageinfo-header]] page created by individual users, it can now be removed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T363726]

For example, VisualEditor previously added bold or italic formatting inside link descriptions, making the wikicode complex. This has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T409669]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* There was no XML dump on 20 January. Additionally, from now on, dumps will be generated once per month only. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414389]
* The MediaWiki Interfaces team removed support for all transform endpoints containing a trailing slash from the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/API:REST%20API MediaWiki REST API]. All API users currently calling those endpoints are encouraged to transition to the non-trailing slash versions. If you have questions or encounter any problems, please file a ticket in phabricator to the [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/6931/ #MW-Interfaces-Team board].

Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2026/07|Translations]] are available.

'''Updates for editors'''
* [[File:Maki-gift-15.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] Logged-in contributors who manage large or complex watchlists can now organise and filter watched pages in ways that improve their workflows with the new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Watchlist labels|Watchlist labels]] feature. By adding custom labels (for example: pages you created, pages being monitored for vandalism, or discussion pages) users can more quickly identify what needs attention, reduce cognitive load, and respond more efficiently. This improves watchlist usability, especially for highly active editors.
* A new feature available on [[Special:Contributions|Special:Contributions]] shows [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] that are likely operated by the same person, and so makes patrolling less time-consuming. Upon checking contributions of a temporary account, users with access to temporary account IP addresses can now see a view of contributions from the related temporary accounts. The feature looks up all the IPs associated with a given temporary account within the data retention period and shows all the contributions of all temporary accounts that have used these IPs. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts#February 2026: Improvements to the patroller tooling|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415674] 
* When editors preview a wikitext edit, the reminder box that they are only seeing a preview (which is shown at the top), now has a grey/neutral background instead of a yellow/warning background. This makes it easier to distinguish preview notes from actual warnings (for example, edit conflicts or problematic redirect targets), which will now be shown in separate warning or error boxes. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414742]
* The [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|Global Watchlist]] lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on one page. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] continues to improve — it now properly supports more than one Wikibase site, for example both [[d:|Wikidata]] and [[testwikidata:|testwikidata]]. In addition, issues regarding text direction have been fixed for users who prefer Wikidata or other Wikibase sites in right-to-left (RTL) languages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415440][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415458]
* The automatic &quot;magic links&quot; for ISBN, RFC, and PMID numbers have been [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic links|deprecated in wikitext since 2021]] due to inflexibility and difficulties with localization. Several wikis have successfully replaced RFC and PMID magic links with equivalent external links, but a template was often required to replace the functionality of the ISBN magic link. There is now a new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic words#isbn|built-in parser function]] &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{#isbn}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; available to replace the basic functionality of the ISBN magic link. This makes it easier for wikis who wish to migrate off of the deprecated magic link functionality to do so. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T145604]
* Two new wikis have been created: 
** a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikipedia}} in [[d:Q35401|Jju]] ([[w:kaj:|&lt;code&gt;w:kaj:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413283]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* A new global user group has been created: [[{{int:grouppage-local-bot}}|{{int:group-local-bot}}]]. It will be used internally by the software to allow community bots to bypass rate limits that are applied to abusive [[w:en:Web scraping|web scrapers]]. Accounts that are approved as bots on at least one Wikimedia wiki will be automatically added to this group. It will not change what user permissions the bot has. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415588]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.46/wmf.15|MediaWiki]]

'''Meetings and events'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference Spring 2026|MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference, Spring 2026]] will be held March 25–27 in Salt Lake City, USA. This event is organized by and for the third-party MediaWiki community. You can propose sessions and register to attend.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Site Reliability Engineering|SRE Team]] will be performing a cleanup of Wikimedia's [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Etherpad|Etherpad]] instance, the web-based editor for real-time collaborative document editing. All pads will be permanently deleted after 30 April, 2026 – if there are still migration projects in progress at that point the team can revisit the date on a case by case basis. Please create local backups of any content you wish to keep, as deleted data cannot be recovered. This cleanup helps reduce database size and minimize infrastructure footprint. Etherpad will continue to support real-time collaboration, but long-term storage should not be expected. Additional cleanups may occur in the future without prior notice. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415237]

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Information Retrieval team will be launching an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Information Retrieval/Phase 1|Android mobile app experiment]] that tests hybrid search capabilities which can handle both semantic and keyword queries. The improvement of on-platform search will enable readers to find what they’re looking for directly on Wikipedia more easily. The experiment will first be launched on Greek Wikipedia in late February, followed by English, French, and Portuguese in March. [https://diff.wikimedia.org/2026/01/08/semantic-search-making-it-easier-to-find-the-information-readers-want/ Read more] on Diff blog. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Readers/Information_Retrieval]
* The Reader Growth team will run [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/WE3.10.2 Mobile Table of Contents|an experiment]] for mobile web users, that adds a table of contents and automatically expands all article sections, to learn more about navigation issues they face. The test will be available on Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Indonesian, and Vietnamese Wikipedias.
* Previously, site notices ([[{{ns:8}}:Sitenotice]] and [[{{ns:8}}:Anonnotice]]) would only render on the desktop site. Now, they will render on all platforms. Users on mobile web will now see these notices and be informed. Site administrators should be prepared to test and fix notices on mobile devices to avoid interference with articles. To opt out, interface admins can add &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;#siteNotice { display: none; }&lt;/code&gt; to [[{{ns:8}}:Minerva.css]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138572][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T416644]

For example, an issue on [[Special:RecentChanges|Special:RecentChanges]] has been fixed. Previously, clicking hide in the active filters caused the &quot;view new changes since…&quot; button to disappear, though it should have remained visible. The button now behaves as expected. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T406339]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* New documentation is now available to help editors debug on-site search features. It supports troubleshooting when pages do not appear in results, when ranking seems unexpected, and when you need to inspect what content is being indexed, helping make search behavior easier to understand and analyze. [[mw:Help:CirrusSearch/Debug|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T411169]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Reference Check|Reference Check]] has been deployed to English Wikipedia, completing its rollout across all Wikipedias. The feature prompts newcomers to add a citation before publishing new content, helping reduce common citation-related reverts and improve verifiability. In A/B testing, the impact was substantial: newcomers shown Reference Check were approximately 2.2 times more likely to include a reference on desktop and about 17.5 times more likely on mobile web. [https://analytics.wikimedia.org/published/reports/editing/reference_check_ab_test_report_final_2025.html]
'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:InterwikiSorting|InterwikiSorting extension]], which allowed for the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Interwiki sorting order|sorting of interwiki links]], has been undeployed from Wikipedia. As a result, editors who had enabled interwiki link sorting in non-compact mode (full list format) will now see links reordered. The links moving forward will be listed in the alphabetical order of language code. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T253764]
* Later this week, people who are editing a page-section using the mobile visual editor, will notice a new &quot;Edit full page&quot; button. When tapped, you will be able to edit the entire article. This helps when the change you want to make is outside the section you initially opened. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T387175][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T409112]
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience|The Reader Experience team]] is inviting editors to assess whether dark mode should still be considered &quot;beta&quot; on their wiki, based on their experience of how well it functions on desktop and mobile. If the feature is deemed mature, editors can update the interface messages in &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;MediaWiki:skin-theme-description&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;MediaWiki:Vector-night-mode-beta-tag&lt;/code&gt; to indicate that dark mode is ready and no longer considered beta.
* The improved [[mw:Wikimedia_Apps/Team/iOS/Activity_Tab|Activity tab]] which displays user-insights is now available to all users of the Wikipedia iOS app (version 7.9.0 and later). Following earlier A/B testing that showed higher account creation among users with access to the feature, it has been rolled out to 100% of users along with some updates. The Activity tab now shows your edited articles in the timeline, offers editing impact insights like contribution counts and article view trends, and customization options to improve in-app experience for users.

Local administrators can configure various aspects of the feature via [[{{#special:EditChecks}}]]. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Paste Check#A/B Experiment|Research]] across 22 wikis found that Paste Check resulted in an 18% decrease in relative reverted-edits compared to the control group.

* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience|Reader Experience team]] will be standardizing the user menu in the top right for all mobile users so that it is closer to the desktop experience. Currently this user menu is only visible to users with Advanced Mobile Controls (AMC) turned on. The only change is that a couple buttons previously in the left-side menu will move to the top right for users who do not have AMC turned on. This change is expected to go out March 9 and seeks to improve the user interface. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413912]
* Starting in the week of March 2, the emails sent out when an email address was added, removed, or changed for an account will switch to a substantially nicer and clearer HTML email from the prior plaintext one. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T410807]
* Notifications are currently limited to 2,000 historic entries per user, and extend back to 2013 when the feature was released. This is going to be changed to only store Notifications from the last 5 years, but up to 10,000 of them. This will help with long-term infrastructure health and help to prevent more recent notifications from disappearing too soon. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383948]
* The [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|Global Watchlist]] which lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on a single page continues to see improvements. The latest update improves label usage experience. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] now allows activating the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Language#Fallback languages|language fallback system]] for Wikidata items without labels in the viewed language, and showing those labels in the user’s preferred Wikidata language if no &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;uselang=&lt;/code&gt; URL parameter is provided. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373686][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T416111]
* The Wikipedia Android team has started a beta test of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Information Retrieval/Phase 1|hybrid search]] on Greek Wikipedia. Hybrid search capabilities can handle both semantic and keyword queries enabling readers to find what they’re looking for directly on Wikipedia more easily.
* For security reasons, members of certain user groups are [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Mandatory two-factor authentication for users with some extended rights|required to have two-factor authentication]] (2FA) enabled. Currently, 2FA is required to use the group, but not to be a member of it. Given that this model still has some vulnerabilities, the situation will [[phab:T418580|gradually change in March]]. Members of these groups will be unable to disable last 2FA method on their account, and it will be impossible to add users without 2FA to these groups. Users will still be able to add new authentication methods or remove them, as long as at least one method is continuously enabled. In the second half of March, users without 2FA will be removed from these groups. This applies to: CentralNotice administrators, checkusers, interface administrators, suppressors, Wikidata staff, Wikifunctions staff, WMF Office IT and WMF Trust &amp; Safety. Nothing will change for other users. See the linked task for deployment schedule. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418580]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* To help ensure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]], over the next month the Wikimedia Foundation will implement global API rate limits across our APIs. In early March, stricter limits will be applied to unidentified requests from outside Toolforge/WMCS and API requests that are made from web browsers. In April, higher limits will be applied to identified traffic. These limits are intentionally set as high as possible to minimise impact on the community. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits]].
* The Wikidata Query Service Linked Data Fragment (LDF) endpoint will be decommissioned in February. This endpoint served limited traffic, which was successfully migrated to other data access methods that were better suited to support existing use cases. The hardware used to support the LDF endpoint will be reallocated to support the ongoing backend migration efforts. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415696]
* The new Parsoid parser [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification/Updates|continues to be deployed to additional wikis]], improving platform sustainability and making it easier to introduce new reading and editing features. Parsoid is now the default parser on 488 WMF wikis (268 Wikipedias), now covering more than 10% of all Wikipedia page views.
* The process and criteria for [[Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Enterprise#Access|requesting exceptional access]] to the high volume feed of the ''Wikimedia Enterprise'' APIs (at no cost for mission-aligned usecases), [[m:Talk:Wikimedia Enterprise#Exceptional access criteria|have now been published]]. This is to provide more thorough and clearer documentation for users.
* [https://techblog.wikimedia.org/ Tech Blog], the blog dedicated to the Wikimedia technical community [https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2026/02/24/a-tech-blog-diff/ will be migrating] to [[diffblog:|Diff]], the community news and event blog. The migration should be complete in April 2026, after which new posts will be accepted for publishing. Readers will be able to access posts – old and new – on the landing page at https://diff.wikimedia.org/techblog.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|All wikis will be read-only]] for a few minutes on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1774450800 15:00 UTC]. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, [[wikitech:Deployments/Yearly calendar|which happen twice a year]]. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies.
* Last week, all wikis had 2 hours of read-only time, and extended unavailability for user-scripts and gadgets. This was due to a security incident which has since been resolved. Work is ongoing to prevent re-occurrences. For current information please see the [[m:Steward's noticeboard#Statement on Meta about today's user script security incident|post on the Stewards' noticeboard]] ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation/Product and Technology/Product Safety and Integrity/March 2026 User Script Incident|translations]]).

'''Updates for editors'''
* Users facing multiple blocks on mobile will now see the reasons for each block separately, instead of a generic message. This helps them understand why they are blocked and what steps they can take to resolve the issue. For example, users affected for using common VPNs (such as [[Special:MyLanguage/Apple iCloud Private Relay|iCloud Private Relay]]) will receive clearer guidance on what they need to do to start editing again. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T357118]
* Later this week, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Suggestion Mode|Suggestion Mode]] will become available as a beta feature within the visual editor at all Wikipedias. This feature proactively suggests various types of actions that people can consider taking to improve Wikipedia articles, and learn about related guidelines. The feature is locally configurable, and can also be locally expanded with custom Suggestions. Current settings can be seen at [[Special:EditChecks]] and there are [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion mode#For administrators %E2%80%93 local customization|instructions for how administrators can customize]] the links to point to local guidelines. The feature is connected to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check|Edit check]] which suggests improvements while someone is writing new content. In the future, the Editing team plans to evaluate the feature's impact with newcomers through a controlled experiment. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T404600]

For example, the issue where the cursor became misaligned during the use of CodeMirror’s syntax highlighting, which makes wikitext and code easier to read, has now been fixed. This problem specifically affected users who defined a font rule in a custom stylesheet while creating a new topic with DiscussionTools. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418793]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* API rate limiting update: To help ensure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]], global API rate limits will be applied this week to requests without a compliant User-Agent that originate from outside Toolforge/WMCS and to unauthenticated requests made from web browsers. Higher limits will be applied to identified traffic in April. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits]].
* The new GraphQL API has been released. The API was developed as a flexible alternative to select features of the Wikidata Query Service (WDQS), to improve developer experience and foster adaptability, and efficient data access. Try it out and [[d:Wikidata:Wikibase GraphQL#Feedback and development|give feedback]]. You can also [https://greatquestion.co/wikimediadeutschland/GraphQLAPI/apply sign up for usability tests].
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Unsupported Tools Working Group|PTAC Unsupported Tools Working Group]] continued improvements to [[commons:Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Video2commons#|Video2Commons]] in February, with fixes addressing authentication errors, large-file handling, task queue visibility, and clearer upload behavior. Work is still ongoing in some areas, including changes related to deprecated server-side uploads.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature, also known as [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror 6]], has been used for wikitext syntax highlighting since November 2024. It will be promoted out of beta by May 2026 in order to bring improvements and new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Features|features]] to all editors who use the standard syntax highlighter. If you have any questions or concerns about promoting the feature out of beta, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help talk:Extension:CodeMirror|please share]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T259059]
* Some changes to local user groups are performed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and logged there only. Now, interwiki rights changes will be logged both on Meta-Wiki and the wiki of the target user to make it easier to access a full record of user's rights changes on a local wiki. Past log entries for such changes will be backfilled in the coming weeks. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T6055]
* On wikis using [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Flagged Revisions|Flagged Revisions]], the number of pending changes shown on [[{{#Special:PendingChanges}}]] previously counted pages which were no longer pending review, because they have been removed from the system without being reviewed, e.g. due to being deleted, moved to a different namespace, or due to wiki configuration changes. The count will be correct now. On some wikis the number shown will be much smaller than before. There should be no change to the list of pages itself. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413016]
* Wikifunctions composition language has been rewritten, resulting in a new version of the language. This change aims to increase service stability by reducing the orchestrator's memory consumption. This rewrite also enables substantial latency reduction, code simplification, and better abstractions, which will open the door to later feature additions. Read more about [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-11|the changes]].
* Users can now sort search results alphabetically by page title. The update gives an additional option to finding pages more easily and quickly. Previously, results could be sorted by Edit date, Creation date, or Relevance. To use the new option, open 'Advanced Search' on the search results page and select 'Alphabetically' under 'Sorting Order'. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T403775]

For example, the bug that prevented UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons from importing files from Flickr has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419263]
'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* A new special page, [[{{#special:LintTemplateErrors}}]], has been created to list transcluded pages that are flagged as containing lint errors to help users discover them easily. The list is sorted by the number of transclusions with errors. For example: [[{{#special:LintTemplateErrors}}/night-mode-unaware-background-color]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T170874]
* Users of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature have been using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] for syntax highlighting when editing JavaScript, CSS, JSON, Vue and Lua content pages, for some time now. Along with promoting CodeMirror 6 out of beta, the plan is to replace CodeEditor as the standard editor for these content models by May 2026. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help talk:Extension:CodeMirror|Feedback or concerns are welcome]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332]
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] JavaScript modules will soon be upgraded to CodeMirror 6. Leading up to the upgrade, loading the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;ext.CodeMirror&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;ext.CodeMirror.lib&lt;/code&gt; modules from gadgets and user scripts was deprecated in July 2025. The use of the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;ext.CodeMirror.switch&lt;/code&gt; hook was also deprecated in March 2025. Contributors can now make their scripts or gadgets compatible with CodeMirror 6. See the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror#Gadgets and user scripts|migration guide]] for more information. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373720]
* The MediaWiki Interfaces team is expanding coverage of REST API module definitions to include [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:REST API/Extensions|extension APIs]]. REST API modules are groups of related endpoints that can be independently managed and versioned. Modules now exist for [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414470 GrowthExperiments] and [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419053 Wikifunctions] APIs. As we migrate extension APIs to this structure, documentation will move out of the main MediaWiki OpenAPI spec and REST Sandbox view, and will instead be accessible via module-specific options in the dropdown on the [https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RestSandbox REST Sandbox] (i.e., [[{{#Special:RestSandbox}}]], available on all wiki projects).
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto|Scribunto]] extension provides different pieces of information about the wiki where the module is being used via the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual|mw.site]] library. Starting last week, the library also provides a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#mw.site.wikiId|way]] of accessing the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Wiki ID|wiki ID]] that can be used to facilitate cross-wiki module maintenance.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Wikimedia site users can now log in without a password using passkeys. This is a secure method supported by fingerprint, facial recognition, or PIN. With this change, all users who opt for passwordless login will find it easier, faster, and more secure to log in to their accounts using any device. The new passkey login option currently appears as an autofill suggestion in the username field. An additional [[phab:T417120|&quot;Log in with passkey&quot; button]] will soon be available for users who have already registered a passkey. This update will improve security and user experience. The [[c:File:Passwordless_login_screencast.webm|screen recording]] demonstrates the passwordless login process step by step.
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|All wikis will be read-only]] for a few minutes on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1774450800 15:00 UTC]. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, [[wikitech:Deployments/Yearly calendar|which happen twice a year]]. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies.

'''Updates for editors'''
* Wikimedia site users can now export their notifications older than 5 years using a [[toolforge:echo-chamber|new Toolforge tool]]. This will ensure that users retain their important notifications and avoid them being lost based on the planned change to delete notifications older than 5 years, as previously announced. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383948]
* Wikipedia editors in Indonesian, Thai, Turkish, and Simple English now have access to Special:PersonalDashboard. This is an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Moderator Tools/Dashboard|early version of an experience]] that introduces newer editors to patrolling workflows, making it easier for them to move from making edits to participating in more advanced moderation work on their project. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T402647]
* The [[Special:Block]] now has two minor interface changes. Administrators can now easily perform indefinite blocks through a dedicated radio button in the expiry section. Also, choosing an indefinite expiry provides a different set of common reasons to select from, which can be changed at: [[MediaWiki:Ipbreason-indef-dropdown]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401823]
* Mobile editors [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#Logged-out|at several wikis]] can now see an improved logged-out edit warning, thanks to the recent updates from the Growth team. These changes released last week are part of ongoing efforts and tests to enhance [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments|account creation experience on mobile]] and then increase participation.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Beta version of [[abstract:|Abstract Wikipedia]] a new Wikimedia project which is language-independent, was launched last week. The project allows communities to build Wikipedia articles in their native language, which can be readily accessed by other users in their own languages. The wiki is powered by instructions from Wikifunctions and also based on structured content from Wikidata. [[:f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26|Read more]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Growth team is running an A/B test to evaluate a clearer, more user-friendly message that promotes account creation on wikis. Currently when logged-out mobile users begin editing, they see a jarring warning message that can feel abrupt and discouraging. This also presents temporary account editing as the default rather than encouraging account creation. The test is running on ten Wikipedias, including Arabic, French, Spanish and German. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#2. Improve logged-out warning message (T415160)|Read more]].
* The Wikimedia Apps team is inviting feedback on [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Future of Editing on the Mobile Apps|how editing should work on the Wikipedia mobile apps]]. The discussion focuses on improving how users access editing tools when they tap &quot;Edit&quot;. This is part of a broader effort to convert readers who develop an interest in editing, to access a more user-friendly pathway to start contributing.

'''Updates for editors'''

* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents extension]] now includes a new group goal-setting feature, enabling organizers to set and track event goals such as the number of articles created and participating contributors in real time. Similarly, participants can work toward shared targets and see their collective impact as the event unfolds. The feature is now available on all Wikimedia wikis. Learn more in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents/Registration/Collaborative contributions#Goal setting|the documentation]].
* [[File:Maki-gift-15.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] The new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Watchlist labels|watchlist labels]] feature (announced in [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2026/07|Tech News 2026-07]]) is now available via VisualEditor, the source editor, and the 'watchstar' (or watch link, for skins that don't have a star icon). Previously it was only possible to assign labels via [[Special:EditWatchlist|EditWatchlist]]. In all three places it is a new field following the expiry field.
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:23}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:23|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, the issue where talk pages on mobile with Parsoid are unusable after empty section headers, has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419171]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|sub-referencing feature]], which lets editors add details to an existing reference without duplicating it, will be gradually rolled out to [[phab:T414094|more wikis]] later this year. Wikis using the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reference Tooltips|Reference Tooltips]] gadget are encouraged to update their version (typically at [[m:MediaWiki:Gadget-ReferenceTooltips.js|MediaWiki:Gadget-ReferenceTooltips.js]] as shown [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1344408362 here]) to ensure compatibility. Other reference-related gadgets may also be affected. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T416304]
* All Wikinews editions will be closed and switched to read-only mode on 4 May 2026. Content will remain accessible, but no new edits or articles can be added. This closure was approved by the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation following extended discussions. [[m:Wikimedia Foundation Board noticeboard#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|Read more]].
* The [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:Action API|Action API]] has had several formats for requested output. One of them, &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;format=php&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;, is being removed soon. Please ensure your scripts or bots use the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:Data formats#Output|JSON format]]. This removal should affect very few scripts and bots. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T118538]
* The [[Special:NamespaceInfo|Special:NamespaceInfo]] page now includes namespace aliases. For example &quot;WP&quot; for the &quot;Project&quot; (&quot;Wikipedia&quot;) namespace on the German Wikipedia. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T381455]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Experienced editors are invited to [https://b24e11a4f1.catalyst.wmcloud.org/wiki/Main_Page test] the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance|Article guidance]] feature, designed to help less-experienced editors create well-structured, policy-compliant Wikipedia articles. Testing instructions are [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance/Test feature guide|available]]. Also, after reviewing [https://b24e11a4f1.catalyst.wmcloud.org/wiki/Category:Pages_using_article_guidance the outlines], please provide feedback on the [[mw:Talk:Article guidance|project talk page]]. Based on your input, the feature will be refined and transferred to the pilot Wikipedias to translate and adapt. Check out [[c:File:Article Guidance workflow demo - April 2026.webm|the video]] explaining the feature.
'''Updates for editors'''
* On most wikis, all autoconfirmed users can now use [[Special:ChangeContentModel|Special:ChangeContentModel]] page to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:ChangeContentModel|create new pages with custom content models]], such as mass message lists, making custom page formats more accessible. Check [[Special:ListGroupRights|Special:ListGroupRights]] for the status of your wiki. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T248294]
* The Growth team has launched an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account_Creation_Experiments|account creation experiment]] to evaluate whether adding an account creation button to the mobile web header increases new account registrations and encourages more mobile users to contribute to the wikis. The experiment is currently live on Hindi, Indonesian, Bengali, Thai, and Hebrew Wikipedia, and targets 10% of logged-out mobile web users.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Starting later this week, {{int:group-abusefilter}} who have the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature enabled will have [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] as the editor at [[Special:AbuseFilter|Special:AbuseFilter]]. This is part of the broader effort to make the user experience more consistent across all editors. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T399673][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332]
* Tools and bots that access the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Notifications/API|Notifications API]] (&lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;action=query&amp;meta=notifications&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;) will need to update their OAuth or BotPassword grants to also include access to private notifications. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T421991]
* Due to a library upgrade, listings on category pages may be displayed out of order starting on Monday, 20th April. A migration script will be run to correct this, and will take hours to days depending on the size of the wiki (up to a week for English Wikipedia). [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422544]

* After two years of development, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]], also known as [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror 6]], is to be promoted out of beta on Tuesday, April 21. It brings better code and wikitext readability, reduction in typing errors, and other [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|benefits]] to all users of the standard syntax highlighter. A huge thank you to volunteer [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/Bhsd/ Bhsd] who developed many of the new features, including [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Code folding|code folding]], [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Autocompletion|autocompletion]], and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Linting|linting]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4 Reading lists|Reading lists]] is a feature which allows readers to save articles to a list for reading later. This feature is now in beta on Arabic, French, Indonesian, Vietnamese, and Chinese Wikipedias and by default for all new accounts on all Wikipedias.
* An experiment which explores extending [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/Mobile page previews|Page Previews to mobile web]] will be launched in the week of April 20 on Arabic, English, French, Italian, Polish, and Vietnamese Wikipedias. Page Previews are pop-ups that display a thumbnail, lead paragraph, and a link to open the full article of a blue link, thereby improving content discovery. The feature is already available on desktop and in the apps. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/List of experiments in Product and Technology#Template|Read more about this experiment and others]].
* On several wikis, logged-in editors who haven't [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Email confirmation|confirmed their email addresses]] can now see a banner encouraging them to do so. Having the email address confirmed allows a user to restore access to the account if they lose it.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T184857]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* As part of the promotion of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] from a beta feature, all users will use [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] for syntax highlighting when editing JavaScript, CSS, JSON, Vue and Lua content pages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332]
* The &lt;code&gt;mirrors.wikimedia.org&lt;/code&gt; service for Debian and Ubuntu users will sunset and stop working on May 15. The resources for the service will be replaced with new and better options. Some users may need to switch to a different server which should take about a minute.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T28741]
* Following the recent implementation of global API rate limits on unidentified traffic, the Wikimedia Foundation will continue efforts to ensure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]] by applying global limits to identified API traffic beginning the last week of April. These limits are intentionally set as high as possible to minimise impact on the community. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits/FAQ|Frequently Asked Questions]].
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Attribution API|Attribution API]] is now available as a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Stability policy|beta]]. The API fetches information for crediting Wikimedia articles and media files wherever they are used. Reference documentation is available through the REST Sandbox special page available on all Wikimedia wikis (such as the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?api=attribution.v0-beta&amp;title=Special%3ARestSandbox REST sandbox on English Wikipedia]). Share your feedback on the [[mw:Talk:Attribution API|project talk page]].
* There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

'''Updates for editors'''
* There is a change in how new users are autoconfirmed that will improve anti-vandalism protection. Currently, users who have had an account for a few days and made a few edits are automatically added to the [[{{int:grouppage-autoconfirmed/{{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}}}|{{int:group-autoconfirmed}}]] group. This configuration tends to be exploited by some vandals, who create accounts and start to use them only after some time. To mitigate this, the configuration will be updated next week so that – for the purpose of becoming autoconfirmed – the account age will be counted from their first edit, instead of registration date. The numeric value of the age threshold will remain the same. This change will be deployed only to wikis which require at least one edit as part of the autoconfirmation conditions. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418484]
* All Wikipedia users with new accounts and those who activated the &quot;automatically enable most beta features&quot; option in their preference can now use the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4 Reading lists|reading lists]] beta feature to save articles for later reading. This helps organize reading interests in one place for convenient access.

* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance|Article guidance]] team invites experienced editors of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance/Pilot wikis and collaborators|pilot Wikipedias]]—Arabic, Bangla, Japanese, Portuguese, Persian, Turkish, Simple English, Spanish, and French—to help translate and adapt [https://b24e11a4f1.catalyst.wmcloud.org/wiki/Category:Pages_using_article_guidance sample outlines].

* The [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council|Product and Technology Advisory Council]] has published [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/May 2026 draft PTAC recommendation for feedback|draft recommendations]] on a model that affiliates can follow when contributing to the technical space. Community members are invited to provide feedback on the recommendation until May 8th [[:m:Talk:Product and Technology Advisory Council/May 2026 draft PTAC recommendation for feedback|on the talk page]].
* The number of available thumbnail size preferences in MediaWiki is being reduced to three standardized options—Small (180px), Regular (250px), and Large (400px), as part of ongoing efforts to improve performance and reduce strain on thumbnail services. As a result, existing preferences will be mapped to the nearest new size (for example, smaller selections like 120px or 150px will render at 180px, while larger ones like 300px or 360px will render at 400px). The preferences interface will soon be updated to reflect these changes, and users who wish to opt out or provide feedback can do so. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T424909]
* From now on, even when a permission expires automatically, users will receive an Echo notification similar to the standard notification for permission changes. There is a difference between this and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Global reminder bot|Global reminder bot]] in that the latter reminds users a week ''before'' the rights are due to expire, so that they can renew the rights.

Previously, when users opened the &quot;Translate to English&quot; dropdown and typed certain inputs, the dialog would scroll vertically by a few pixels even when there was enough space to display all results. The dropdown no longer shifts unnecessarily when filtering languages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T358864] 
* The [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|Global Watchlist]], which lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on a single page, continues to improve. For example, watchlists for Wikibase sites such as [[:d:|Wikidata]] now support [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:EntitySchema|EntitySchema]] elements for better tracking. The Live Updates mode now refreshes the special page every 60 seconds to comply with the updated [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|global API rate limits]] for improved real-time responsiveness. Additionally, a directionality bug that displayed links as &quot;changes 3&quot; instead of &quot;3 changes&quot; in mixed-direction lists has been fixed.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The second phase of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|global API rate limits]] has been rolled out to reduce the [[diffblog:2026/03/26/quo-vadis-crawlers-progress-and-whats-next-on-safeguarding-our-infrastructure/|impact of AI crawlers]] and ensure fair, sustainable access to Wikimedia resources, prioritising human and mission-aligned traffic. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits#Limits|Limits]] have been shifted from per-hour to per-minute, producing smoother traffic patterns and more predictable API load. Community users are not expected to be affected, and no action is required. Early indications show some User-Agent-based requestors are adjusting behaviour, and around 64% of automated API traffic has been identified. Monitoring continues, and Wikimedia Enterprise remains available for commercial support.
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.46/wmf.27|MediaWiki]]

      <text bytes="5296" sha1="3mclpx9i3e8dvzgtjyu823z31xwgbtp" xml:space="preserve">Many of the functions that arise naturally in mathematics and real world applications can be extended to and regarded as complex functions, meaning the input, as well as the output, can be complex numbers &lt;math&gt;x+iy&lt;/math&gt;, where &lt;math&gt;i=\sqrt{-1}&lt;/math&gt;, in such a way that it is a more natural object to study. '''Complex analysis''', which used to be known as '''function theory''' or '''theory of functions of a single complex variable''', is a sub-field of analysis that studies such functions (more specifically, '''holomorphic''' functions) on the complex plane, or part (domain) or extension (Riemann surface) thereof. It notably has great importance in number theory, e.g. the [[Riemann zeta function]] (for the distribution of primes) and other &lt;math&gt;L&lt;/math&gt;-functions, modular forms, elliptic functions, etc. &lt;blockquote&gt;The shortest path between two truths in the real domain passes through the complex domain.  — [[wikipedia:Jacques_Hadamard|Jacques Hadamard]]&lt;/blockquote&gt;In a certain sense, the essence of complex functions is captured by the principle of [[analytic continuation]].{{mathematics}}

'''Tech News'''
* Because of the [[w:en:Christmas and holiday season|holidays]] the next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 11 January 2021.

'''Recent changes'''
* The &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{citation needed}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; template shows when a statement in a Wikipedia article needs a source. If you click on it when you edit with the visual editor there is a popup that explains this. Now it can also show the reason and when it was added. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T270107]

'''Changes later this week'''
* There is no new MediaWiki version this week or next week.

'''Future changes'''
* You can [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Geoinformation/Ideas|propose and discuss]] what technical improvements should be done for geographic information. This could be coordinates, maps or other related things.
* Some wikis use [[mw:Writing systems/LanguageConverter|LanguageConverter]] to switch between writing systems or variants of a language. This can only be done for the entire page. There will be a &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;langconvert&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; tag that can convert a piece of text on a page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T263082]
*  Oversighters and stewards can hide entries in [[Special:AbuseLog|Special:AbuseLog]]. They can soon hide multiple entries at once using checkboxes. This works like hiding normal edits. It will happen in early January. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T260904]

'''Recent changes'''
* You can choose to be reminded when you have not added an edit summary. This can be done in your preferences. This could conflict with the [[:w:en:CAPTCHA|CAPTCHA]]. This has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T12729]
* You can link to specific log entries. You can get these links for example by clicking the timestamps in the log. Until now, such links to private log entries showed no entry even if you had permission to view private log entries. The links now show the entry. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T269761]
* Admins can use the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter|abuse filter tool]] to automatically prevent bad edits. Three changes happened last week:
** The filter editing interface now shows syntax errors while you type. This is similar to JavaScript pages. It also shows a warning for regular expressions that match the empty string. New warnings will be added later. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T187686]
** [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Meta:Oversighters|Oversighters]] can now hide multiple filter log entries at once using checkboxes on [[Special:AbuseLog]]. This is how the usual revision deletion works. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T260904]
** When a filter matches too many actions after it has been changed it is &quot;throttled&quot;. The most powerful actions are disabled. This is to avoid many editors getting blocked when an administrator made a mistake. The administrator will now get a notification about this &quot;throttle&quot;.
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] There is a new tool to [https://skins.wmflabs.org/?#/add build new skins]. You can also [https://skins.wmflabs.org/?#/ see] existing [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Skins|skins]]. You can [[mw:User talk:Jdlrobson|give feedback]]. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2020-December/094130.html]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] Bots using the API no longer watch pages automatically based on account preferences. Setting the &lt;code&gt;watchlist&lt;/code&gt; to &lt;code&gt;watch&lt;/code&gt; will still work. This is to reduce the size of the watchlist data in the database. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T258108]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto|Scribunto's]] [[:mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#File metadata|file metadata]] now includes length. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T209679]

You can use wikilinks like [[:w:en:MediaWiki:Common.js#L-50]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T29531]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] There was a [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.25|new version]] of MediaWiki last week. You can read [[mw:MediaWiki 1.36/wmf.25/Changelog|a detailed log]] of all 763 changes. Most of them are very small and will not affect you.

'''Changes later this week'''

You can help [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translate&amp;group=ext-growthexperiments&amp;language=&amp;filter=&amp;action=translate translating the interface].

* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/MassMessage|MassMessage]] posts could be automatically timestamped in the future. This is because MassMessage senders can now send pages using MassMessage. Pages are more difficult to sign. If there are times when a MassMessage post should not be timestamped you can [[phab:T270435|let the developers know]].

'''Problems'''
* [[:w:en:IPv6|IPv6 addresses]] were written in lowercase letters in diffs. This caused dead links since [[Special:Contributions|Special:Contributions]] only accepted uppercase letters for the IPs. This has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T272225]

'''Changes later this week'''
* You can soon use Wikidata to link to pages on the multilingual Wikisource. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138332]
* Often editors use a &quot;non-breaking space&quot; 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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T70429][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T96666]

Filter maintainers can now use syntax like &lt;code&gt;1.2.3.4 - 1.2.3.55&lt;/code&gt; as well as the &lt;code&gt;1.2.3.4/27&lt;/code&gt; syntax for IP ranges.

'''Recent changes'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation/Section translation|Section translation]] now works on Bengali Wikipedia. It helps mobile editors translate sections of articles.

'''Future changes'''
* There will be a number of changes to make it easier to work with templates. Some will come to the first wikis in March. Other changes will come to the first wikis in June. This is both for those who use templates and those who create or maintain them. You can [[:m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Templates|read more]].
* [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/ReferencePreviews|Reference Previews]] will become a default feature on some wikis on 17 March. They will share a setting with [[mw:Page Previews|Page Previews]]. If you prefer the Reference Tooltips or Navigation-Popups gadget you can keep using them. If so Reference Previews won't be shown. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T271206][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/ReferencePreviews]
* New JavaScript-based functions will not work in [[:w:en:Internet Explorer 11|Internet Explorer 11]].

'''Future changes'''
* You can add a [[:w:en:Newline|newline]] or [[:w:en:Carriage return|carriage return]] character to a custom signature if you use a template. There is a proposal to not allow them in the future. This is because they can cause formatting problems. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/New_requirements_for_user_signatures#Additional_proposal_(2021)][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T272322]

* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] You can use [https://quarry.wmflabs.org/ Quarry] for [[:w:en:SQL|SQL]] queries to the [[wikitech:Wiki replicas|Wiki Replicas]].

'''Recent changes'''
* There is a [[mw:Wikipedia for KaiOS|Wikipedia app]] for [[:w:en:KaiOS|KaiOS]] phones. They don't have a touch screen so readers navigate with the phone keys. There is now a [https://wikimedia.github.io/wikipedia-kaios/sim.html simulator] so you can see what it looks like.
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Talk pages project/Replying|reply tool]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Talk pages project/New discussion|new discussion tool]] are now available as the &quot;{{int:discussiontools-preference-label}}&quot; [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|beta feature]] in almost all wikis except German Wikipedia.

'''Future changes'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:FlaggedRevs|Flagged revisions]] will no longer have multiple tags like &quot;tone&quot; or &quot;depth&quot;. It will also only have one tier. This was changed because very few wikis used these features and they make the tool difficult to maintain. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T185664][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T277883]

* Email to the Wikimedia wikis are handled by groups of Wikimedia editors. These volunteer response teams now use [https://github.com/znuny/Znuny Znuny] instead of [[m:Special:MyLanguage/OTRS|OTRS]]. The functions and interface remain the same. The volunteer administrators will give more details about the next steps soon. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T279303][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T275294]
* If you use [[Mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|syntax highlighting]], you can see line numbers in the 2010 and 2017 wikitext editors when editing templates. This is to make it easier to see line breaks or talk about specific lines. Line numbers will soon come to all namespaces.

If they look strange they should use &lt;code&gt;mw.loader.using('mediawiki.action.edit.styles')&lt;/code&gt; to go back to how they looked before. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T278898]
* The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.37/wmf.1|latest version]] of MediaWiki came to the Wikimedia wikis last week. There was no Tech News issue last week.

'''Changes later this week'''
*  There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

'''Future changes'''
* The user group &lt;code&gt;oversight&lt;/code&gt; will be renamed &lt;code&gt;suppress&lt;/code&gt;. This is for [[phab:T109327|technical reasons]]. This is the technical name. It doesn't affect what you call the editors with this user right on your wiki. This is planned to happen in two weeks. You can comment [[phab:T112147|in Phabricator]] if you have objections.

* Templates have parameters that can have specific values. It is possible to suggest values for editors with [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:TemplateData|TemplateData]].

You can get Twinkle on your wiki using the [https://github.com/wikimedia-gadgets/twinkle-starter twinkle-starter] GitHub repository.

'''Problems'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation|content translation tool]] did not work for many articles for a little while. This was because of a bug. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T281346]
* Some things will not work for about a minute on 5 May. This will happen [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20210505T0600 around 06:00 UTC]. This will affect the content translation tool and notifications among other things. This is because of an upgrade to avoid crashes. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T281212]

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Reference Previews|Reference Previews]] will become a default feature on a number of wikis on 5 May. This is later than planned because of some changes. You can use it without using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Page Previews|Page Previews]] if you want to. The earlier plan was to have the preference to use both or none.

The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/IRC/Group_Contacts|Wikimedia IRC Group Contacts]] have [[m:Special:Diff/21476411|decided]] to move to the new [[:w:en:Libera Chat|Libera Chat]] network instead.

* The Wikimedia movement uses [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Phabricator|Phabricator]] for technical tasks. This is where we collect technical suggestions, bugs and what developers are working on. The company behind Phabricator will stop working on it. This will not change anything for the Wikimedia movement now. It could lead to changes in the future.

* Searching on Wikipedia will find more results in some languages. This is mainly true for when those who search do not use the correct [[:w:en:Diacritic|diacritics]] because they are not seen as necessary in that language. For example searching for &lt;code&gt;Bedusz&lt;/code&gt; doesn't find &lt;code&gt;Będusz&lt;/code&gt; on German Wikipedia. The character &lt;code&gt;ę&lt;/code&gt; isn't used in German so many would write &lt;code&gt;e&lt;/code&gt; instead. This will work better in the future in some languages.

* Logged-in users on the mobile web can choose to use the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Advanced mobile contributions|advanced mobile mode]]. They now see categories in a similar way as users on desktop do. This means that some gadgets that have just been for desktop users could work for users of the mobile site too.

'''Problems'''
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/InternetArchiveBot|InternetArchiveBot]] helps saving online sources on some wikis. It adds them to [[:w:en:Wayback Machine|Wayback Machine]] and links to them there. This is so they don't disappear if the page that was linked to is removed.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T283432]

'''Changes later this week'''
* The tool to [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Finding and inserting templates|find, add and remove templates]] will be updated. This is to make it easier to find and use the right templates.

It hides edits from new and unregistered accounts for readers until they have been patrolled. The auto review action in Flagged Revisions will no longer be logged. All old logs of auto-review will be removed. This is because it creates a lot of logs that are not very useful. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T285608]

* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] If your wiki uses markup like &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;mw-content-ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; or &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;mw-content-rtl&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; without the required &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;dir&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; attribute, then these will no longer work in 2 weeks. There is a short-term fix that can be added to your local wiki's Common.css page, which is explained at [[phab:T287701|T287701]]. From now on, all usages should include the full attributes, for example: &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;mw-content-ltr&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; or &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;mw-content-rtl&quot; dir=&quot;rtl&quot; lang=&quot;he&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;.

'''Problems'''
* Last week, all wikis had slow access or no access for 30 minutes. There was a problem with generating dynamic lists of articles on the Russian Wikinews, due to the bulk import of 200,000+ new articles over 3 days, which led to database problems. The problematic feature has been disabled on that wiki and developers are discussing if it can be fixed properly.

'''Recent changes'''
* You can add language links in the sidebar in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements|new Vector skin]] again. You do this by connecting the page to a Wikidata item. The new Vector skin has moved the language links but the new language selector cannot add language links yet. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T287206]

'''Problems'''
* There was a problem on wikis which use the Translate extension. Translations were not updated or were replaced with the English text. The problems have been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288700][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288683][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288719]

'''Changes later this week'''
* A [[mw:Help:Tags|revision tag]] will soon be added to edits that add links to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Disambiguator|disambiguation pages]]. This is because these links are usually added by accident. The tag will allow editors to easily find the broken links and fix them. If your wiki does not like this feature, it can be [[mw:Help:Tags#Deleting a tag added by the software|hidden]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T287549]
*Would you like to help improve the information about tools? Would you like to attend or help organize a small virtual meetup for your community to discuss the list of tools? Please get in touch on the [[m:Toolhub/The Quality Signal Sessions|Toolhub Quality Signal Sessions]] talk page. We are also looking for feedback [[m:Talk:Toolhub/The Quality Signal Sessions#Discussion topic for &quot;Quality Signal Sessions: The Tool Maintainers edition&quot;|from tool maintainers]] on some specific questions.
* In the past, edits to any page in your user talk space ignored your [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Notifications#mute|mute list]], e.g. sub-pages. Starting this week, this is only true for edits to your talk page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288112]

Features will be available for newcomers starting on 20 September 2021.
* MediaWiki had a feature that would highlight local links to short articles in a different style. Each user could pick the size at which &quot;stubs&quot; would be highlighted. This feature was very bad for performance, and following a consultation, has been removed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T284917]
* A technical change was made to the MonoBook skin to allow for easier maintenance and upkeep. This has resulted in some minor changes to HTML that make MonoBook's HTML consistent with other skins.

API users should update their code to avoid unrecognized parameter warnings. Pywikibot users should upgrade to 6.6.0. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T290585]

'''Future changes'''

* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki_1.37/Deprecation_of_legacy_API_token_parameters|previously announced]] change to how you obtain tokens from the API has been delayed to September 21 because of an incompatibility with Pywikibot. Bot operators using Pywikibot can follow [[phab:T291202|T291202]] for progress on a fix, and should plan to upgrade to 6.6.1 when it is released.

However, the recently developed [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Feature_summary|Growth features]] provide a better onboarding experience. Since the vast majority of Wikipedias now have access to the Growth features, GettingStarted will be deactivated starting on 4 October. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T235752]

'''Problems'''
* MediaWiki 1.38-wmf.11 was scheduled to be deployed on some wikis last week. The deployment was delayed because of unexpected problems.

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.38/wmf.12|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2021-12-07|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2021-12-08|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2021-12-09|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.38/Roadmap|calendar]]).
* At all Wikipedias, a Mentor Dashboard is now available at &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;Special:MentorDashboard&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;. It allows registered mentors, who take care of newcomers' first steps, to monitor their assigned newcomers' activity. It is part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Feature summary|Growth features]]. You can learn more about [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Communities/How_to_configure_the_mentors%27_list|activating the mentor list]] on your wiki and about [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Mentor dashboard|the mentor dashboard project]].

'''Recent changes'''
* There are now default [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Namespace#Other_namespace_aliases|short aliases]] for the &quot;Project:&quot; namespace on most wikis. E.g. On Wikibooks wikis, &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;[[WB:]]&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; will go to the local language default for the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;[[Project:]]&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; namespace. This change is intended to help the smaller communities have easy access to this feature. Additional local aliases can still be requested via [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Requesting wiki configuration changes|the usual process]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T293839]

It doesn't affect what you call the editors with this user right on your wiki. This is planned to happen in three weeks. You can comment [[phab:T112147|in Phabricator]] if you have objections. As usual, these labels can be translated on translatewiki ([[phab:T112147|direct links are available]]) or by administrators on your wiki.

'''Events'''
* You can vote on proposals in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2022|Community Wishlist Survey]] between 28 January and 11 February. The survey decides what the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Tech|Community Tech team]] will work on.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T25020]
* At Wikipedias, all new accounts now get the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Feature_summary|Growth features]] by default when creating an account. Communities are encouraged to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Tools/Account_creation|update their help resources]]. Previously, only 80% of new accounts would get the Growth features. A few Wikipedias remain unaffected by this change. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T301820]
* You can now prevent specific images that are used in a page from appearing in other locations, such as within PagePreviews or Search results. This is done with the markup &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;class=notpageimage&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;.

* Mentors using the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Mentor_dashboard|Growth Mentor dashboard]] will now see newcomers assigned to them who have made at least one edit, up to 200 edits. Previously, all newcomers assigned to the mentor were visible on the dashboard, even ones without any edit or ones who made hundred of edits.

'''Future changes'''
* Working with templates will become easier. [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Templates|Several improvements]] are planned for March 9 on most wikis and on March 16 on English Wikipedia. The improvements include: Bracket matching, syntax highlighting colors, finding and inserting templates, and related visual editor features.
* If you are a template developer or an interface administrator, and you are intentionally overriding or using the default CSS styles of user feedback boxes (the classes: &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;successbox, messagebox, errorbox, warningbox&lt;/code&gt;), please note that these classes and associated CSS will soon be removed from MediaWiki core. This is to prevent problems when the same class-names are also used on a wiki. Please let us know by commenting at [[phab:T300314]] if you think you might be affected.

'''Tech News'''
* Because of the [[w:en:Christmas and holiday season|holidays]] the next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 9 January 2023.

'''Recent changes'''
* On a user's contributions page, you can filter it for edits with a tag like 'reverted'. Now, you can also filter for all edits that are not tagged like that. This was part of a Community Wishlist 2022 request. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T119072]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] A new function has been used for gadget developers to add content underneath the title on article pages. This is considered a stable API that should work across all skins. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/ResourceLoader/Core_modules#addSubtitle|Documentation is available]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T316830]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] [[test2wiki:|One of our test wikis]] is now being served from a new infrastructure powered by [[w:Kubernetes|Kubernetes]] ([[wikitech:MediaWiki On Kubernetes|read more]]). More Wikis will switch to this new infrastructure in early 2023. Please test and let us know of any issues. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T290536]

'''Problems'''
* Last week, all wikis had no edit access for 9 minutes. This was caused by a database problem. [https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Incidents/2022-12-13_sessionstore]

'''Changes later this week'''
* There is no new MediaWiki version this week or next week.
* The word &quot;{{int:discussiontools-replybutton}}&quot; is very short in some languages, such as Arabic (&quot;&lt;bdi lang=&quot;ar&quot;&gt;ردّ&lt;/bdi&gt;&quot;). This makes the {{int:discussiontools-preference-label}} button on talk pages difficult to use. An arrow icon will be added to those languages. This will only be visible to editors who have the [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|Beta Feature]] turned on. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk_pages_project/Usability#Status] [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T323537]

'''Future changes'''
* Edits can be automatically &quot;tagged&quot; by the system software or the {{int:Abusefilter}} system. Those tags link to a help page about the tags. Soon they will also link to Recent Changes to let you see other edits tagged this way. This was a Community Wishlist 2022 request. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T301063]
* The Trust &amp; Safety tools team [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Private Incident Reporting System/Timeline and Updates|have shared new plans]] for building the Private Incident Reporting System. The system will make it easier for editors to ask for help if they are harassed or abused. 
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2021/Real Time Preview for Wikitext|Realtime Preview for Wikitext]] is coming out of beta as an enabled feature for every user of the 2010 Wikitext [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Editor|editor]] in the week of January 9, 2023. It will be available to use via the toolbar in the 2010 Wikitext editor. The feature was the 4th most popular wish of the Community Wishlist Survey 2021.

'''Events'''
* You can now [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Hackathon 2023/Participate|register for the Wikimedia Hackathon 2023]], taking place on May 19–21 in Athens, Greece. You can also apply for a scholarship until January 14th.

* The Vega software that creates data visualizations in pages, such as graphs, will be upgraded to the newest version in the future.

== Tech News: 2023-28 ==

&lt;section begin=&quot;technews-2023-W28&quot;/&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks&quot;&gt;
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2023/28|Translations]] are available.

'''Recent changes'''
* The [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Structured Data Across Wikimedia/Section-level Image Suggestions|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.
* [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Global AbuseFilter|Global abuse filters]] have been enabled on all Wikimedia projects, except English and Japanese Wikipedias (who opted out). This change was made following a [[:m:Requests for comment/Make global abuse filters opt-out|global request for comments]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T341159]
* [[{{#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|MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist]], but otherwise it replaces most of the functionalities of the existing [[MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist|MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist]]. There is a Python script to help migrate all simple domains into this tool, and more feature details, within [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:BlockedExternalDomains|the tool's documentation]]. It is available at all wikis except for Meta-wiki, Commons, and Wikidata. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T337431]
* 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 [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:MessageGroupStats?group=ext-wikieditor&amp;messages=&amp;x=D#sortable:0=asc the state of WikiEditor localization into your language], and if the &quot;Completion&quot; for your language shows anything less than 100%, please complete the translation. See [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-ambassadors@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/D4YELU2DXMZ75PGELUOKXXMFF3FH45XA/ a more detailed explanation].

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.41/wmf.17|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2023-07-11|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2023-07-12|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2023-07-13|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.41/Roadmap|calendar]]).
* The default protocol of [[{{#special:LinkSearch}}]] and API counterparts has changed from http to both http and https. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T14810]
* [[{{#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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T17218]

'''Future changes'''
* There is an experiment with a [[:w:en:ChatGPT|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2023/20|Tech News 2023/20]]. [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Annual_Plan/2023-2024/Draft/Future_Audiences#FA2.2_Conversational_AI]
* There is an ongoing discussion on a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Third-party resources policy|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 [[m:Talk:Third-party resources policy|on the policy talk page]].

'''Recent changes'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] We are now serving 1% of all global user traffic from [[w:en:Kubernetes|Kubernetes]] (you can [[wikitech:MediaWiki On Kubernetes|read more technical details]]). We are planning to increment this percentage regularly. You can [[phab:T290536|follow the progress of this work]]. 

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.41/wmf.18|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2023-07-18|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2023-07-19|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2023-07-20|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.41/Roadmap|calendar]]).
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] MediaWiki [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:System_message|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Language#Fallback_languages|fallback chain]] separately. For example, English Wikipedia doesn't have to create &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;en-ca&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; and &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;en-gb&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; subpages with a transclusion of the base pages anymore. This makes it easier to maintain local overrides. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T229992]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] The &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;action=growthsetmentorstatus&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; API will be deprecated with the new MediaWiki version. Bots or scripts calling that API should use the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;action=growthmanagementorlist&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; API now.

'''Recent changes'''
* [[File:Octicons-gift.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Wishlist item]] As part of the changes for the [[m:Community Wishlist Survey 2022/Better diff handling of paragraph splits|better diff handling of paragraph splits]], improved detection of splits is being rolled out. Over the last two weeks, we deployed this support to [[wikitech:Deployments/Train#Groups|group0]] and group1 wikis. This week it will be deployed to group2 wikis. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T341754]
* [[File:Octicons-gift.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Wishlist item]] All [[{{#special:Contributions}}]] pages now show the user's local edit count and the account's creation date. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T324166]
* Wikisource users can now use the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;prpbengalicurrency&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; label to denote Bengali currency characters as page numbers inside the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;pagelist&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; tag.  [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T268932]
* Two preferences have been relocated. The preference &quot;{{int:visualeditor-preference-visualeditor}}&quot; is now shown on the [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing|&quot;{{int:prefs-editing}}&quot; tab]] at all wikis. Previously it was shown on the &quot;{{int:prefs-betafeatures}}&quot; tab at some wikis. The preference &quot;{{int:visualeditor-preference-newwikitexteditor-enable}}&quot; is now also shown on the &quot;{{int:prefs-editing}}&quot; tab at all wikis, instead of the &quot;{{int:prefs-betafeatures}}&quot; tab. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T335056][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T344158]

'''Changes later this week'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.41/wmf.24|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from {{#time:j xg|2023-08-29|en}}. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from {{#time:j xg|2023-08-30|en}}. It will be on all wikis from {{#time:j xg|2023-08-31|en}} ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.41/Roadmap|calendar]]).
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] New signups for a Wikimedia developer account will start being pushed towards &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[https://idm.wikimedia.org/ idm.wikimedia.org]&lt;/bdi&gt;, rather than going via Wikitech. [[wikitech:IDM|Further information about the new system is available]].
* All right-to-left language wikis, plus Korean, Armenian, Ukrainian, Russian, and Bulgarian Wikipedias, will have a link in the sidebar that provides a short URL of that page, using the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia URL Shortener|Wikimedia URL Shortener]]. This feature will come to more wikis in future weeks. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T267921]

'''Future changes'''
* The removal of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:DoubleWiki|DoubleWiki extension]] is being discussed. This extension currently allows Wikisource users to view articles from multiple language versions side by side when the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;=&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; symbol next to a specific language edition is selected. Comments on this are welcomed at [[phab:T344544|the phabricator task]].
* A proposal has been made to merge the second hidden-categories list (which appears below the wikitext editing form) with the main list of categories (which is further down the page). [[phab:T340606|More information is available on Phabricator]]; feedback is welcome!

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T342115]
* When you are logged in on one Wikimedia wiki and visit a different Wikimedia wiki, the system tries to log you in there automatically. This has been unreliable for a long time. You can now visit the login page to make the system try extra hard. If you feel that made logging in better or worse than it used to be, your feedback is appreciated.

* Listings on category pages are sorted on each wiki for that language using a [[:w:en:International Components for Unicode|library]]. For a brief period on 2 November, changes to categories will not be sorted correctly for many languages. This is because the developers are upgrading to a new version of the library. They will then use a script to fix the existing categories. This will take a few hours or a few days depending on how big the wiki is.

There are [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Features/Loading Vector 2010 scripts|more technical details]] available. Interface administrators who foresee this leading to lots of technical support questions may wish to send a mass message to your community, as was done on French Wikipedia.

[[File:Talk_pages_default_look_(April_2023).jpg|thumb|alt=Screenshot of the visual improvements made on talk pages|Example of a talk page with the new design, in French.]]
* The appearance of talk pages changed for the following wikis: {{int:project-localized-name-azwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-bnwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-dewiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-fawiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-hewiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-hiwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-idwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-kowiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-nlwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-ptwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-rowiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-thwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-trwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-ukwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-viwiki/en}}. These wikis participated to a test, where 50% of users got the new design, for one year. As this test [[Mw:Special:MyLanguage/Talk pages project/Usability/Analysis|gave positive results]], the new design is deployed on these wikis as the default design. It is possible to opt-out these changes [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing|in user preferences]] (&quot;{{int:discussiontools-preference-visualenhancements}}&quot;). The deployment will happen at all wikis in the coming weeks. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T341491]
* Seven new wikis have been created: 
** a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikipedia}} in [[d:Q33014|Betawi]] ([[w:bew:|&lt;code&gt;w:bew:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T357866]

Initially, this feature will notify you of added or deleted messages in these groups. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T348501]
* Dark mode is now available on all wikis, on mobile web for logged-in users who opt into the [[Special:MobileOptions|advanced mode]]. This is the early release of the feature. Technical editors are invited to [https://night-mode-checker.wmcloud.org/ check for accessibility issues on wikis]. See [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Accessibility for reading/Updates/2024-04|more detailed guidelines]].

'''Problems'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:Kartographer|Kartographer]] maps can use an alternative visual style without labels, by using &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;mapstyle=&quot;osm&quot;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;. This wasn't working in previews, creating the wrong impression that it wasn't supported. This has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T362531]

'''Changes later this week'''

'''Recent changes'''
* On Wikisource there is a special page listing pages of works without corresponding scan images. Now you can use the new magic word &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;__EXPECTWITHOUTSCANS__&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; to exclude certain pages (list of editions or translations of works) from that list. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T344214]
* If you use the [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing|user-preference]] &quot;{{int:tog-uselivepreview}}&quot;, then the template-page feature &quot;{{int:Templatesandbox-editform-legend}}&quot; will now also work without reloading the page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T136907]
* [[mw:Special:Mylanguage/Extension:Kartographer|Kartographer]] maps can now specify an alternative text via the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;alt=&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; attribute. This is identical in usage to the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;alt=&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; attribute in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Images#Syntax|image and gallery syntax]]. An exception for this feature is wikis like Wikivoyage where the miniature maps are interactive. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T328137]
* The old [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GuidedTour|Guided Tour]] for the &quot;[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit Review Improvements/New filters for edit review|New Filters for Edit Review]]&quot; feature has been removed. It was created in 2017 to show people with older accounts how the interface had changed, and has now been seen by most of the intended people. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T217451]

* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] The [[{{#special:search}}]] results page will now use CSS flex attributes, for better accessibility, instead of a table. If you have a gadget or script that adjusts search results, you should update your script to the new HTML structure. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T320295]

'''Future changes'''
* In the Vector 2022 skin, main pages will be displayed at full width (like special pages). The goal is to keep the number of characters per line large enough. This is related to the coming changes to typography in Vector 2022. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Accessibility for reading/Updates|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T357706]

In your existing SQL queries:
*# Replace &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;JOIN pagelinks&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; with &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;JOIN linktarget&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; and &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;pl_&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; with &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;lt_&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; in the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;ON&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; statement

It will change on 22 May in some skins (Timeless, Modern, CologneBlue, Nostalgia, and Monobook). Please test gadgets on your wiki on these skins and [[phab:T13555|report any related problems]] so that they can be resolved before this change is made in all other skins. The developers are also considering the introduction of a [[phab:T337286|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.

* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] Some CSS in the Minerva skin has been removed to enable easier community configuration.

* The software used to render SVG files has been updated to a new version, fixing many longstanding bugs in SVG rendering. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T265549]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] The HTML used to render all headings [[mw:Heading HTML changes|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 [[phab:T13555|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 [[phab:T337286|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.
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] The HTML markup used for citations by [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid|Parsoid]] changed last week. In places where Parsoid previously added the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;mw-reference-text&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; class, Parsoid now also adds the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;reference-text&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; class for better compatibility with the legacy parser.

* Starting June 18, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#ref|Reference Edit Check]] will be deployed to [[phab:T361843|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit_check#Reference_Check_A/B_Test|a test at 11 wikis]], the number of citations added [https://diff.wikimedia.org/?p=127553 more than doubled] when Reference Check was shown to people.

'''Recent changes'''
* Editors will notice that there have been some changes to the background color of text in the diff view, and the color of the byte-change numbers, last week. These changes are intended to make text more readable in both light mode and dark mode, and are part of a larger effort to increase accessibility. You can share your comments or questions [[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Accessibility for reading|on the project talkpage]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T361717]
* 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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T366515]

'''Problems'''
* You can [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:DiscussionTools#Talk pages permalinking|copy permanent links to talk page comments]] by clicking on a comment's timestamp. [[mw:Talk pages project/Permalinks|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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T356196]

'''Recent changes'''
* Over the next three weeks, dark mode will become available for all users, both logged-in and logged-out, starting with the mobile web version. This fulfils one of the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2023/Reading/Dark_mode|top-requested community wishes]], and improves low-contrast reading and usage in low-light settings. As part of these changes, dark mode will also work on User-pages and Portals.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T366364]
* Logged-in users can now set [[m:Special:GlobalPreferences#mw-prefsection-rendering-skin-skin-prefs|global preferences for the text-size and dark-mode]], thanks to a combined effort across Foundation teams. This allows Wikimedians using multiple wikis to set up a consistent reading experience easily, for example by switching between light and dark mode only once for all wikis. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T341278] 
* If you use a very old web browser some features might not work on the Wikimedia wikis. This affects Internet Explorer 11 and versions of Chrome, Firefox and Safari older than 2016. This change makes it possible to use new [[d:Q46441|CSS]] features and to send less code to all readers.

* Wikipedia Admins can customize local wiki configuration options easily using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Community Configuration|Community Configuration]]. Community Configuration was created to allow communities to customize how some features work, because each language wiki has unique needs. At the moment, admins can configure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Feature_summary|Growth features]] on their home wikis, in order to better recruit and retain new editors. More options will be provided in the coming months. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T366458]
* Editors interested in language issues that are related to [[w:en:Unicode|Unicode standards]], can now discuss those topics at [[mw:Talk:WMF membership with Unicode Consortium|a new conversation space in MediaWiki.org]]. The Wikimedia Foundation is now a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/WMF membership with Unicode Consortium|member of the Unicode Consortium]], and the coordination group can collaboratively review the issues discussed and, where appropriate, bring them to the attention of the Unicode Consortium.
* One new wiki has been created: a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikipedia}} in [[d:Q2891049|Mandailing]] ([[w:btm:|&lt;code&gt;w:btm:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T368038]

* Thank you to [[mw:MediaWiki Product Insights/Contributor retention and growth/Celebration|all of the authors]] who have contributed to MediaWiki Core. As a result of these contributions, the [[mw:MediaWiki Product Insights/Contributor retention and growth|percentage of authors contributing more than 5 patches has increased by 25% since last year]], which helps ensure the sustainability of the platform for the Wikimedia projects.

'''Problems'''

&lt;section begin=&quot;technews-2024-W29&quot;/&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks&quot;&gt;
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2024/29|Translations]] are available.

'''Tech News survey'''
* Please [https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/758713?lang=en help us to improve Tech News by taking this short survey]. The goal is to better meet the needs of the various types of people who read Tech News. The survey will be open for 3 more days. The survey is covered by [https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Legal:Tech_News_Survey_2024_Privacy_Statement this privacy statement]. Some translations are available.

'''Recent changes'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Wikimedia developers can now officially continue to use both [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Gerrit|Gerrit]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/GitLab|GitLab]], due to a June 24 decision by the Wikimedia Foundation to support software development on both platforms. Gerrit and GitLab are both code repositories used by developers to write, review, and deploy the software code that supports the MediaWiki software that the wiki projects are built on, as well as the tools used by editors to create and improve content. This decision will safeguard the productivity of our developers and prevent problems in code review from affecting our users. More details are available in the [[mw:GitLab/Migration status|Migration status]] page.
* The Wikimedia Foundation seeks applicants for the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Proposal|Product and Technology Advisory Council]] (PTAC). This group will bring technical contributors and Wikimedia Foundation together to co-define a more resilient, future-proof technological platform. Council members will evaluate and consult on the movement's product and technical activities, so that we develop multi-generational projects. We are looking for a range of technical contributors across the globe, from a variety of Wikimedia projects. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Proposal#Joining the PTAC as a technical volunteer|Please apply here by August 10]].
* Editors with rollback user-rights who use the Wikipedia App for Android can use the new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Android/Anti Vandalism|Edit Patrol]] features. These features include a new feed of Recent Changes, related links such as Undo and Rollback, and the ability to create and save a personal library of user talk messages to use while patrolling. If your wiki wants to make these features available to users who do not have rollback rights but have reached a certain edit threshold, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Android#Contact us|you can contact the team]]. You can [[diffblog:2024/07/10/ِaddressing-vandalism-with-a-tap-the-journey-of-introducing-the-patrolling-feature-in-the-mobile-app/|read more about this project on Diff blog]].
* Editors who have access to [[m:Special:MyLanguage/The_Wikipedia_Library|The Wikipedia Library]] can once again use non-open access content in SpringerLinks, after the Foundation [[phab:T368865|contacted]] them to restore access. You can read more about [[m:Tech/News/Recently_resolved_community_tasks|this and 21 other community-submitted tasks that were completed last week]]. 

'''Changes later this week'''
* This week, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Accessibility for reading/Updates/2024-07 deployments|dark mode will be available on a number of Wikipedias]], both desktop and mobile, for logged-in and logged-out users. Interface admins and user script maintainers are encouraged to check gadgets and user scripts in the dark mode, to find any hard-coded colors and fix them. There are some [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Recommendations for night mode compatibility on Wikimedia wikis|recommendations for dark mode compatibility]] to help.

'''Future changes'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Next week, functionaries, volunteers maintaining tools, and software development teams are invited to test the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] feature on testwiki. Temporary accounts is a feature that will help improve privacy on the wikis. No further temporary account deployments are scheduled yet. Please [[mw:Talk:Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|share your opinions and questions on the project talk page]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T348895]
* Editors who upload files cross-wiki, or teach other people how to do so, may wish to join a Wikimedia Commons discussion. The Commons community is discussing limiting who can upload files through the cross-wiki upload/Upload dialog feature to users auto-confirmed on Wikimedia Commons. This is due to the large amount of copyright violations uploaded this way. There is a short summary at [[c:Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Cross-wiki upload|Commons:Cross-wiki upload]] and [[c:Commons:Village pump/Proposals#Deactivate cross-wiki uploads for new users|discussion at Commons:Village Pump]].

&lt;section begin=&quot;technews-2024-W30&quot;/&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks&quot;&gt;
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2024/30|Translations]] are available.

'''Feature News'''
* Stewards can now [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Global_blocks|globally block]] accounts. Before [[phab:T17294|the change]] only IP addresses and IP ranges could be blocked globally. Global account blocks are useful when the blocked user should not be logged out. [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Global_locks|Global locks]] (a similar tool logging the user out of their account) are unaffected by this change. The new global account block feature is related to the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|Temporary Accounts]] project, which is a new type of user account that replaces IP addresses of unregistered editors that are no longer made public.
* Later this week, Wikimedia site users will notice that the Interface of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:FlaggedRevs|FlaggedRevs]] (also known as &quot;Pending Changes&quot;) is improved and consistent with the rest of the MediaWiki interface and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Codex|Wikimedia's design system]]. The FlaggedRevs interface experience on mobile and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Skin:MinervaNeue|Minerva skin]] was inconsistent before it was fixed and ported to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Codex|Codex]] by the WMF Growth team and some volunteers. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T191156]
*  Wikimedia site users can now submit account vanishing requests via [[m:Special:GlobalVanishRequest|GlobalVanishRequest]]. This feature is used when a contributor wishes to stop editing forever. It helps you hide your past association and edit to protect your privacy. Once processed, the account will be locked and renamed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T367329]
* Have you tried monitoring and addressing vandalism in Wikipedia using your phone? [https://diff.wikimedia.org/2024/07/10/%d9%90addressing-vandalism-with-a-tap-the-journey-of-introducing-the-patrolling-feature-in-the-mobile-app/ A Diff blog post on Patrolling features in the Mobile App] highlights some of the new capabilities of the feature, including swiping through a feed of recent changes and a personal library of user talk messages for use when patrolling from your phone. 
* Wikimedia contributors and GLAM (galleries, libraries, archives, and museums) organisations can now learn and measure the impact Wikimedia Commons is having towards creating quality encyclopedic content using the [https://doc.wikimedia.org/generated-data-platform/aqs/analytics-api/reference/commons.html Commons Impact Metrics] analytics dashboard. The dashboard offers organizations analytics on things like monthly edits in a category, the most viewed files, and which Wikimedia articles are using Commons images. As a result of these new data dumps, GLAM organisation can more reliably measure their return on investment for programs bringing content into the digital Commons. [https://diff.wikimedia.org/2024/07/19/commons-impact-metrics-now-available-via-data-dumps-and-api/]

'''Project Updates'''
*  Come share your ideas for improving the wikis on the newly reopened [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist|Community Wishlist]]. The Community Wishlist is Wikimedia’s forum for volunteers to share ideas (called wishes) to improve how the wikis work. The new version of the wishlist is always open, works with both wikitext and Visual Editor, and allows wishes in any language.

* Have you ever wondered how Wikimedia software works across over 300 languages? This is 253 languages more than the Google Chrome interface, and it's no accident. The Language and Product Localization Team at the Wikimedia Foundation supports your work by adapting all the tools and interfaces in the MediaWiki software so that contributors in our movement who translate pages and strings can translate them and have the sites in all languages. Read more about the team and their upcoming work on [https://diff.wikimedia.org/2024/07/17/building-towards-a-robust-multilingual-knowledge-ecosystem-for-the-wikimedia-movement/ Diff]. 
* How can Wikimedia build innovative and experimental products while maintaining such heavily used websites? A recent [https://diff.wikimedia.org/2024/07/09/on-the-value-of-experimentation/ blog post] by WMF staff Johan Jönsson highlights the work of the [[m:Future Audiences#Objectives and Key Results|WMF Future Audience initiative]], where the goal is not to build polished products but test out new ideas, such as a [[m:Future_Audiences/Experiments: conversational/generative AI|ChatGPT plugin]] and [[m:Future_Audiences/Experiment:Add a Fact|Add a Fact]], to help take Wikimedia into the future.

'''Feature news'''
* Editors using the Visual Editor in languages that use non-Latin characters for numbers, such as Hindi, Manipuri and Eastern Arabic, may notice some changes in the formatting of reference numbers. This is a side effect of preparing a new sub-referencing feature, and will also allow fixing some general numbering issues in Visual Editor. If you notice any related problems on your wiki, please share details at the [[m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|project talkpage]].

'''Bugs status'''
* Some logged-in editors were briefly unable to edit or load pages last week. [[phab:T370304|These errors]] were mainly due to the addition of new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:Linter|linter]] rules which led to caching problems. Fixes have been applied and investigations are continuing.
* Editors can use the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/IP Info|IP Information tool]] to get information about IP addresses. This tool is available as a Beta Feature in your preferences. The tool was not available for a few days last week, but is now working again. Thank you to Shizhao for filing the bug report. You can read about that, and [[m:Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks#2024-07-25|28 other community-submitted tasks]] that were resolved last week.

'''Project updates'''
* There are new features and improvements to Phabricator from the Release Engineering and Collaboration Services teams, and some volunteers, including: the search systems, the new task creation system, the login systems, the translation setup which has resulted in support for more languages (thanks to Pppery), and fixes for many edge-case errors. You can [[phab:phame/post/view/316/iterative_improvements/|read details about these and other improvements in this summary]].
* There is an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart/Project/Updates|update on the Charts project]]. The team has decided which visualization library to use, which chart types to start focusing on, and where to store chart definitions.
* One new wiki has been created: a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikivoyage}} in [[d:Q9056|Czech]] ([[voy:cs:|&lt;code&gt;voy:cs:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T370905]

* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Two new parser functions will be available this week: &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{&lt;/nowiki&gt;[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic_words#dir|#dir]]&lt;nowiki&gt;}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{&lt;/nowiki&gt;[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic_words#bcp47|#bcp47]]&lt;nowiki&gt;}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;. These will reduce the need for &lt;code&gt;Template:Dir&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;Template:BCP47&lt;/code&gt; on Commons and allow us to [[phab:T343131|drop 100 million rows]] from the &quot;what links here&quot; database. Editors at any wiki that use these templates, can help by replacing the templates with these new functions. The templates at Commons will be updated during the Hackathon at Wikimania. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T359761][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T366623]
* Communities can request the activation of the visual editor on entire namespaces where discussions sometimes happen (for instance ''Wikipedia:'' or ''Wikisource:'' namespaces) if they understand the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/FAQ#WPNS|known limitations]]. For discussions, users can already use [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:DiscussionTools|DiscussionTools]] in these namespaces.
* The tracking category &quot;Pages using Timeline&quot; has been renamed to &quot;Pages using the EasyTimeline extension&quot; [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Translations?message=MediaWiki%3ATimeline-tracking-category&amp;namespace=8 in TranslateWiki]. Wikis that have created the category locally should rename their local creation to match.

'''Project updates'''
* Editors who help to organize WikiProjects and similar on-wiki collaborations, are invited to share ideas and examples of successful collaborations with the Campaigns and Programs teams. You can fill out [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Campaigns/WikiProjects|a brief survey]] or share your thoughts [[m:Talk:Campaigns/WikiProjects|on the talkpage]]. The teams are particularly looking for details about successful collaborations on non-English wikis.
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] The new parser is being rolled out on {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikivoyage}} wikis over the next few months. The {{int:project-localized-name-enwikivoyage}} and {{int:project-localized-name-hewikivoyage}} were [[phab:T365367|switched]] to Parsoid last week.

'''Bugs status'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Your help is needed to check if any pages need to be moved or deleted. A maintenance script was run to clean up unreachable pages (due to Unicode issues or introduction of new namespaces/namespace aliases). The script tried to find appropriate names for the pages (e.g. by following the Unicode changes or by moving pages whose titles on Wikipedia start with &lt;code&gt;Talk:WP:&lt;/code&gt; so that their titles start with &lt;code&gt;Wikipedia talk:&lt;/code&gt;), but it may have failed for some pages, and moved them to &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[[Special:PrefixIndex/T195546/]]&lt;/bdi&gt; instead. Your community should check if any pages are listed there, and move them to the correct titles, or delete them if they are no longer needed. A full log (including pages for which appropriate names could be found) is available in [[phab:P67388]].
* Editors who volunteer as [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Mentorship|mentors]] to newcomers on their wiki are once again able to access lists of potential mentees who they can connect with to offer help and guidance. This functionality was restored thanks to [[phab:T372164|a bug fix]]. Thank you to Mbch331 for filing the bug report. You can read about that, and 18 other community-submitted tasks that were [[m:Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].

'''Feature news'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Administrators can now test the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] feature on test2wiki. This was done to allow cross-wiki testing of temporary accounts, for when temporary accounts switch between projects. The feature was enabled on testwiki a few weeks ago. No further temporary account deployments are scheduled yet. Temporary Accounts is a project to create a new type of user account that replaces IP addresses of unregistered editors which are no longer made public. Please [[mw:Talk:Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|share your opinions and questions on the project talk page]].
* Later this week, editors at wikis that use [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:FlaggedRevs|FlaggedRevs]] (also known as &quot;Pending Changes&quot;) may notice that the indicators at the top of articles have changed. This change makes the system more consistent with the rest of the MediaWiki interface. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T191156]

'''Bugs status'''
* Editors who use the 2010 wikitext editor, and use the Character Insert buttons, will [[phab:T361465|no longer]] experience problems with the buttons adding content into the edit-summary instead of the edit-window. You can read more about that, and 26 other community-submitted tasks that were [[m:Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].

'''Project updates'''
* [[File:Octicons-gift.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] Please review and vote on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist/Focus areas|Focus Areas]], which are groups of wishes that share a problem. Focus Areas were created for the newly reopened Community Wishlist, which is now open year-round for submissions. The first batch of focus areas are specific to moderator workflows, around welcoming newcomers, minimizing repetitive tasks, and prioritizing tasks. Once volunteers have reviewed and voted on focus areas, the Foundation will then review and select focus areas for prioritization.
* Do you have a project and are willing to provide a three (3) month mentorship for an intern? [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Outreachy|Outreachy]] is a twice a year program for people to participate in a paid internship that will start in December 2024 and end in early March 2025, and they need mentors and projects to work on. Projects can be focused on coding or non-coding (design, documentation, translation, research). See the Outreachy page for more details, and a list of past projects since 2013.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Editors and volunteer developers interested in data visualisation can now test the new software for charts. Its early version is available on beta Commons and beta Wikipedia. This is an important milestone before making charts available on regular wikis. You can [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart/Project/Updates|read more about this project update]] and help to test the charts.

'''Feature news'''
* Editors who use the [[{{#special:Unusedtemplates}}]] page can now filter out pages which are expected to be there permanently, such as sandboxes, test-cases, and templates that are always substituted. Editors can add the new magic word [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic words#EXPECTUNUSEDTEMPLATE|&lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;__EXPECTUNUSEDTEMPLATE__&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;]] to a template page to hide it from the listing. Thanks to Sophivorus and DannyS712 for these improvements. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T184633]
* Editors who use the New Topic tool on discussion pages, will [[phab:T334163|now be reminded]] to add a section header, which should help reduce the quantity of newcomers who add sections without a header. You can read more about that, and {{formatnum:28}} other community-submitted tasks that were [[m:Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].
* Last week, some Toolforge tools had occasional connection problems. The cause is still being investigated, but the problems have been resolved for now. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373243]
* Translation administrators at multilingual wikis, when editing multiple translation units, can now easily mark which changes require updates to the translation. This is possible with the [[phab:T298852#10087288|new dropdown menu]].

'''Project updates'''
* A new draft text of a policy discussing the use of Wikimedia's APIs [[m:Special:MyLanguage/API Policy Update 2024|has been published on Meta-Wiki]]. The draft text does not reflect a change in policy around the APIs; instead, it is an attempt to codify existing API rules. Comments, questions, and suggestions are welcome on [[m:Talk:API Policy Update 2024|the proposed update’s talk page]] until September 13 or until those discussions have concluded.

* Starting this week, the standard [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|syntax highlighter]] will receive new colors that make them compatible in dark mode. This is the first of many changes to come as part of a major upgrade to syntax highlighting. You can learn more about what's to come on the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|help page]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T365311][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T259059]
* Editors of wikis using Wikidata will now be notified of only relevant Wikidata changes in their watchlist. This is because the Lua functions &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;entity:getSitelink()&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; and &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;mw.wikibase.getSitelink(qid)&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; will have their logic unified for tracking different aspects of sitelinks to reduce junk notifications from [[m:Wikidata For Wikimedia Projects/Projects/Watchlist Wikidata Sitelinks Tracking|inconsistent sitelinks tracking]].

'''Project updates'''
*  Users of all Wikis will have access to Wikimedia sites as read-only for a few minutes on September 25, starting at 15:00 UTC. This is a planned datacenter switchover for maintenance purposes. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis in the coming weeks. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T370962]
* Contributors of [[phab:T363538#10123348|11 Wikipedias]], including English will have a new &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;MOS&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; namespace added to their Wikipedias. This improvement ensures that links beginning with &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;MOS:&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; (usually shortcuts to the [[w:en:Wikipedia:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]]) are not broken by [[w:en:Mooré|Mooré]] Wikipedia (language code &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;mos&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;).

'''Improvements and Maintenance'''
* [[File:Octicons-gift.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] Editors interested in templates can help by reading the latest Wishlist focus area, [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist/Focus areas/Template recall and discovery|Template recall and discovery]], and share your feedback on the talkpage. This input helps the Community Tech team to decide the right technical approach to build. Everyone is also encouraged to continue adding [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist|new wishes]].
* The new automated [[{{#special:NamespaceInfo}}]] page helps editors understand which [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Namespaces|namespaces]] exist on each wiki, and some details about how they are configured. Thanks to DannyS712 for these improvements. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T263513]
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#Reference check|References Check]] is a feature that encourages editors to add a citation when they add a new paragraph to a Wikipedia article. For a short time, the corresponding tag &quot;Edit Check (references) activated&quot; was erroneously being applied to some edits outside of the main namespace. This has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373692]
* It is now possible for a wiki community to change the order in which a page’s categories are displayed on their wiki. By default, categories are displayed in the order they appear in the wikitext. Now, wikis with a consensus to do so can [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Requesting wiki configuration changes|request]] a configuration change to display them in alphabetical order. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373480]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Tool authors can now access ToolsDB's [[wikitech:Portal:Data Services#ToolsDB|public databases]] from both [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Research:Quarry|Quarry]] and [[wikitech:Superset|Superset]]. Those databases have always been accessible to every [[wikitech:Portal:Toolforge|Toolforge]] user, but they are now more broadly accessible, as Quarry can be accessed by anyone with a Wikimedia account. In addition, Quarry's internal database can now be [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Research:Quarry#Querying Quarry's own database|queried from Quarry itself]]. This database contains information about all queries that are being run and starred by users in Quarry. This information was already public through the web interface, but you can now query it using SQL. You can read more about that, and {{formatnum:20}} other community-submitted tasks that were [[m:Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].
* Any pages or tools that still use the very old CSS classes &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;mw-message-box&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; need to be updated. These old classes will be removed next week or soon afterwards. Editors can use a [https://global-search.toolforge.org/?q=mw-message-box&amp;regex=1&amp;namespaces=&amp;title= global-search] to determine what needs to be changed. It is possible to use the newer &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;cdx-message&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; group of classes as a replacement (see [https://doc.wikimedia.org/codex/latest/components/demos/message.html#css-only-version the relevant Codex documentation], and [https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tech/Header&amp;diff=prev&amp;oldid=27449042 an example update]), but using locally defined onwiki classes would be best. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T374499]

'''Technical project updates'''
* Next week, all Wikimedia wikis will be read-only for a few minutes. This will start on September 25 at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1727276400 15:00 UTC]. This is a planned datacenter switchover for maintenance purposes. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|This maintenance process also targets other services.]] The previous switchover took 3 minutes, and the Site Reliability Engineering teams use many tools to make sure that this essential maintenance work happens as quickly as possible.

* All wikis will be [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|read-only]] for a few minutes on Wednesday September 25 at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1727276400 15:00 UTC]. Reading the wikis will not be interrupted, but editing will be paused. These twice-yearly processes allow WMF's site reliability engineering teams to remain prepared to keep the wikis functioning even in the event of a major interruption to one of our data centers.

'''Updates for editors'''
[[File:Add alt text from a halfsheet, with the article behind.png|thumb|A screenshot of the interface for the Alt Text suggested-edit feature]]
* Editors who use the iOS Wikipedia app in Spanish, Portuguese, French, or Chinese, may see the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/iOS Suggested edits project/Alt Text Experiment|Alt Text suggested-edit experiment]] after editing an article, or completing a suggested edit using &quot;[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/iOS Suggested edits project#Hypothesis 2 Add an Image Suggested Edit|Add an image]]&quot;. Alt-text helps people with visual impairments to read Wikipedia articles. The team aims to learn if adding alt-text to images is a task that editors can be successful with. Please share any feedback on [[mw:Talk:Wikimedia Apps/iOS Suggested edits project/Alt Text Experiment|the discussion page]].
* The Codex color palette has been updated with new and revised colors for the MediaWiki user interfaces. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Design System Team/Color/Design documentation#Updates|most noticeable changes]] for editors include updates for: dark mode colors for Links and for quiet Buttons (progressive and destructive), visited Link colors for both light and dark modes, and background colors for system-messages in both light and dark modes.
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] It is now possible to include clickable wikilinks and external links inside code blocks. This includes links that are used within &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;syntaxhighlight&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; tags and on code pages (JavaScript, CSS, Scribunto and Sanitized CSS). Uses of template syntax &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{…}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; are also linked to the template page. Thanks to SD0001 for these improvements. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T368166]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] From [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Enterprise|Wikimedia Enterprise]]: 
** The API now enables 5,000 on-demand API requests per month and twice-monthly HTML snapshots freely (gratis and libre). More information on the updates and also improvements to the software development kits (SDK) are explained on [https://enterprise.wikimedia.com/blog/enhanced-free-api/ the project's blog post]. While Wikimedia Enterprise APIs are designed for high-volume commercial reusers, this change enables many more community use-cases to be built on the service too.
** The Snapshot API (html dumps) have added beta Structured Contents endpoints ([https://enterprise.wikimedia.com/blog/structured-contents-snapshot-api/ blog post on that]) as well as released two beta datasets (English and French Wikipedia) from that endpoint to Hugging Face for public use and feedback ([https://enterprise.wikimedia.com/blog/hugging-face-dataset/ blog post on that]). These pre-parsed data sets enable new options for researchers, developers, and data scientists to use and study the content.

'''In depth'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] The Wikidata Query Service (WDQS) is used to get answers to questions using the Wikidata data set. As Wikidata grows, we had to make a major architectural change so that WDQS could remain performant. As part of the [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:SPARQL query service/WDQS graph split|WDQS Graph Split project]], we have new SPARQL endpoints available for serving the &quot;[https://query-scholarly.wikidata.org scholarly]&quot; and &quot;[https://query-main.wikidata.org main]&quot; subgraphs of Wikidata. The [http://query.wikidata.org query.wikidata.org endpoint] will continue to serve the full Wikidata graph until March 2025. After this date, it will only serve the main graph. For more information, please see [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:SPARQL query service/WDQS backend update/September 2024 scaling update|the announcement on Wikidata]].

&lt;section begin=&quot;technews-2024-W40&quot;/&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks&quot;&gt;
Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2024/40|Translations]] are available.

'''Updates for editors'''
* Readers of [[phab:T375401|42 more wikis]] can now use Dark Mode. If the option is not yet available for logged-out users of your wiki, this is likely because many templates do not yet display well in Dark Mode. Please use the [https://night-mode-checker.wmcloud.org/ night-mode-checker tool] if you are interested in helping to reduce the number of issues. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Recommendations for night mode compatibility on Wikimedia wikis|recommendations page]] provides guidance on this. Dark Mode is enabled on additional wikis once per month.
* Editors using the 2010 wikitext editor as their default can access features from the 2017 wikitext editor by adding &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;?veaction=editsource&lt;/code&gt; to the URL. If you would like to enable the 2017 wikitext editor as your default, it can be set in [[Special:Preferences#mw-input-wpvisualeditor-newwikitext|your preferences]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T239796]
* For logged-out readers using the Vector 2022 skin, the &quot;donate&quot; link has been moved from a collapsible menu next to the content area into a more prominent top menu, next to &quot;Create an account&quot;. This restores the link to the level of prominence it had in the Vector 2010 skin. [[mw:Readers/2024 Reader and Donor Experiences#Donor Experiences (Key Result WE 3.2 and the related hypotheses)|Learn more]] about the changes related to donor experiences. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373585]
* The CampaignEvents extension provides tools for organizers to more easily manage events, communicate with participants, and promote their events on the wikis. The extension has been [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Deployment status|enabled]] on Arabic Wikipedia, Igbo Wikipedia, Swahili Wikipedia, and Meta-Wiki. [[w:zh:Wikipedia:互助客栈/其他#引進CampaignEvents擴充功能|Chinese Wikipedia has decided]] to enable the extension, and discussions on the extension are in progress [[w:es:Wikipedia:Votaciones/2024/Sobre la política de Organizadores de Eventos|on Spanish Wikipedia]] and [[d:Wikidata:Project chat#Enabling the CampaignEvents Extention on Wikidata|on Wikidata]]. To learn how to enable the extension on your wiki, you can visit [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents|the CampaignEvents page on Meta-Wiki]].
* View all {{formatnum:22}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:22|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Developers with an account on Wikitech-wiki should [[wikitech:Wikitech/SUL-migration|check if any action is required]] for their accounts. The wiki is being changed to use the single-user-login (SUL) system, and other configuration changes. This change will help reduce the overall complexity for the weekly software updates across all our wikis.

'''In depth'''
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|server switch]] was completed successfully last week with a read-only time of [[wikitech:Switch Datacenter#Past Switches|only 2 minutes 46 seconds]]. This periodic process makes sure that engineers can switch data centers and keep all of the wikis available for readers, even if there are major technical issues. It also gives engineers a chance to do maintenance and upgrades on systems that normally run 24 hours a day, and often helps to reveal weaknesses in the infrastructure. The process involves dozens of software services and hundreds of hardware servers, and requires multiple teams working together. Work over the past few years has reduced the time from 17 minutes down to 2–3 minutes.

'''Meetings and events'''
* October 4–6: [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WikiIndaba conference 2024|WikiIndaba Conference's Hackathon]] in Johannesburg, South Africa
* November 4–6: [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference Fall 2024|MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference Fall 2024]] in Vienna, Austria

Thanks to SD0001 for these improvements. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T40932]
* Customized copyright footer messages on all wikis will be updated. The new versions will use wikitext markup instead of requiring editing raw HTML. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T375789]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Later this month, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] will be rolled out on several pilot wikis. The final list of the wikis will be published in the second half of the month. If you maintain any tools, bots, or gadgets on [[phab:T376499|these 11 wikis]], and your software is using data about IP addresses or is available for logged-out users, please check if it needs to be updated to work with temporary accounts. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/For developers|Guidance on how to update the code is available]].
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Rate limiting has been enabled for the code review tools [[Wikitech:Gerrit|Gerrit]] and [[Wikitech:GitLab|GitLab]] to address ongoing issues caused by malicious traffic and scraping.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Structured Discussion extension (also known as Flow) is starting to be removed. This extension is unmaintained and causes issues. It will be replaced by [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:DiscussionTools|DiscussionTools]], which is used on any regular talk page. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Structured Discussions/Deprecation#Deprecation timeline|A first set of wikis]] are being contacted. These wikis are invited to stop using Flow, and to move all Flow boards to sub-pages, as archives. At these wikis, a script will move all Flow pages that aren't a sub-page to a sub-page automatically, starting on 22 October 2024. On 28 October 2024, all Flow boards at these wikis will be set in read-only mode. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Structured_Discussions/Deprecation][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T370722]
* WMF's Search Platform team is working on making it easier for readers to perform text searches in their language. A [[phab:T332342|change last week]] on over 30 languages makes it easier to find words with accents and other diacritics. This applies to both full-text search and to types of advanced search such as the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;''hastemplate''&lt;/bdi&gt; and &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;''incategory''&lt;/bdi&gt; keywords. More technical details (including a few other minor search upgrades) are available.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Editors who use the Toolforge tool [[toolforge:copyvios|Earwig's Copyright Violation Detector]] will now be required to log in with their Wikimedia account before running checks using the &quot;search engine&quot; option. This change is needed to help prevent external bots from misusing the system. Thanks to Chlod for these improvements. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:New_pages_patrol/Reviewers#Authentication_is_now_required_for_search_engine_checks_on_Earwig's_Copyvio_Tool]
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Phabricator|Phabricator]] users can create tickets and add comments on existing tickets via Email again. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Phabricator/Help#Using email|Sending email to Phabricator]] has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T356077]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Some HTML elements in the interface are now wrapped with a &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;bdi&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; element, to make our HTML output more aligned with Web standards. More changes like this will be coming in future weeks. This change might break some tools that rely on the previous HTML structure of the interface. Note that relying on the HTML structure of the interface is [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Stable interface policy/Frontend#What is not stable?|not recommended]] and might break at any time.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Mobile Apps team has released an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/iOS/Navigation Refresh#Phase 1: Creating a user Profile Menu (T373714)|update]] to the iOS app's navigation, and it is now available in the latest App store version. The team added a new Profile menu that allows for easy access to editor features like Notifications and Watchlist from the Article view, and brings the &quot;Donate&quot; button into a more accessible place for users who are reading an article. This is the first phase of a larger planned [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/iOS/Navigation Refresh|navigation refresh]] to help the iOS app transition from a primarily reader-focused app, to an app that fully supports reading and editing. The Wikimedia Foundation has added more editing features and support for on-wiki communication based on volunteer requests in recent years.
[[File:IOS App Navigation refresh first phase 05.png|thumb|iOS Wikipedia App's profile menu and contents]]

'''Updates for editors'''
* Wikipedia readers can now download a browser extension to experiment with some early ideas on potential features that recommend articles for further reading, automatically summarize articles, and improve search functionality. For more details and to stay updated, check out the Web team's [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Content Discovery Experiments|Content Discovery Experiments page]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Newsletter:Web team's projects|subscribe to their newsletter]].
* Later this month, logged-out editors of [[phab:T376499|these 12 wikis]] will start to have [[mw:Special:Mylanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] created. The list may slightly change - some wikis may be removed but none will be added. Temporary account is a new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/User account types|type of user account]]. It enhances the logged-out editors' privacy and makes it easier for community members to communicate with them. If you maintain any tools, bots, or gadgets on these 12 wikis, and your software is using data about IP addresses or is available for logged-out users, please check if it needs to be updated to work with temporary accounts. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/For developers|Guidance on how to update the code is available]].

* It is now possible to create functions on Wikifunctions using Wikidata lexemes, through the new [[f:Z6005|Wikidata lexeme type]] launched last week. When you go to one of these functions, the user interface provides a lexeme selector that helps you pick a lexeme from Wikidata that matches the word you type. After hitting run, your selected lexeme is retrieved from Wikidata, transformed into a Wikidata lexeme type, and passed into the selected function. Read more about this in [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2024-10-17#Function of the Week: select representation from lexeme|the latest Wikifunctions newsletter]].

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Users of the Wikimedia sites can now format dates more easily in different languages with the new &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;{{[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##timef|#timef]]:…}}&lt;/code&gt; parser function. For example, &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{#timef:now|date|en}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; will show as &quot;&lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;{{#timef:now|date|en}}&lt;/bdi&gt;&quot;. Previously, &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{#time:…}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; could be used to format dates, but this required knowledge of the order of the time and date components and their intervening punctuation. &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;#timef&lt;/code&gt; (or &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;#timefl&lt;/code&gt; for local time) provides access to the standard date formats that MediaWiki uses in its user interface. This may help to simplify some templates on multi-lingual wikis like Commons and Meta.

The Guided Tours extension now works with [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Dark mode|dark mode]]. Guided Tour maintainers can check their tours to see that nothing looks odd. They can also set &lt;code&gt;emitTransitionOnStep&lt;/code&gt; to &lt;code&gt;true&lt;/code&gt; to fix an old bug. They can use the new flag &lt;code&gt;allowAutomaticBack&lt;/code&gt; to avoid back-buttons they don't want. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T73927#10241528]

* Stewards can now make [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Global blocks|global account blocks]] cause global [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Autoblock|autoblocks]]. This will assist stewards in preventing abuse from users who have been globally blocked. This includes preventing globally blocked temporary accounts from exiting their session or switching browsers to make subsequent edits for 24 hours. Previously, temporary accounts could exit their current session or switch browsers to continue editing. This is an anti-abuse tool improvement for the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|Temporary Accounts]] project. You can read more about the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/Updates|progress on key features for temporary accounts]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T368949]

'''Updates for editors'''
* Two new parser functions were added this week. The &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{&lt;/nowiki&gt;[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic words#interwikilink|#interwikilink]]&lt;nowiki&gt;}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; function adds an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Links#Interwiki links|interwiki link]] and the &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{&lt;/nowiki&gt;[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic words#interlanguagelink|#interlanguagelink]]&lt;nowiki&gt;}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; function adds an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Links#Interlanguage links|interlanguage link]]. These parser functions are useful on wikis where namespaces conflict with interwiki prefixes. For example, links beginning with &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;MOS:&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; on English Wikipedia [[phab:T363538|conflict with the &lt;code&gt;mos&lt;/code&gt; language code prefix of Mooré Wikipedia]].
* Starting this week, Wikimedia wikis no longer support connections using old RSA-based HTTPS certificates, specifically rsa-2048. This change is to improve security for all users. Some older, unsupported browser or smartphone devices will be unable to connect; Instead, they will display a connectivity error. See the [[wikitech:HTTPS/Browser_Recommendations|HTTPS Browser Recommendations page]] for more-detailed information.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* In late February, temporary accounts will be rolled out on at least 10 large wikis. This deployment will have a significant effect on the community-maintained code. This is about Toolforge tools, bots, gadgets, and user scripts that use IP address data or that are available for logged-out users. The Trust and Safety Product team wants to identify this code, monitor it, and assist in updating it ahead of the deployment to minimize disruption to workflows. The team asks technical editors and volunteer developers to help identify such tools by adding them to [[mw:Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/For developers/Impacted tools|this list]]. In addition, review the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/For developers|updated documentation]] to learn how to adjust the tools.

* Technical documentation contributors can find updated resources, and new ways to connect with each other and the Wikimedia Technical Documentation Team, at the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Documentation|Documentation hub]] on MediaWiki.org. This page links to: resources for writing and improving documentation, a new &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;#wikimedia-techdocs&lt;/bdi&gt; IRC channel on libera.chat, a listing of past and upcoming documentation events, and ways to request a documentation consultation or review. If you have any feedback or ideas for improvements to the documentation ecosystem, please [[mw:Wikimedia Technical Documentation Team#Contact us|contact the Technical Documentation Team]].

'''Updates for editors'''
[[File:Edit Check on Desktop.png|thumb|Layout change for the Edit Check feature]]
* Later this week, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check|Edit Check]] will be relocated to a sidebar on desktop. Edit check is the feature for new editors to help them follow policies and guidelines. This layout change creates space to present people with [[mw:Edit check#1 November 2024|new Checks]] that appear ''while'' they are typing. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check#Reference Check A/B Test|initial results]] show newcomers encountering Edit Check are 2.2 times more likely to publish a new content edit that includes a reference and is not reverted.
* The Chart extension, which enables editors to create data visualizations, was successfully made available on MediaWiki.org and three pilot wikis (Italian, Swedish, and Hebrew Wikipedias). You can see a working examples [[testwiki:Charts|on Testwiki]] and read [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart/Project/Updates|the November project update]] for more details.
* Translators in wikis where the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation/Section translation#Try the tool|mobile experience of Content Translation is available]], can now discover articles in Wikiproject campaigns of their interest from the &quot;[https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ContentTranslation&amp;campaign=specialcx&amp;filter-type=automatic&amp;filter-id=collections&amp;active-list=suggestions&amp;from=es&amp;to=en All collection]&quot; category in the articles suggestion feature. Wikiproject Campaign organizers can use this feature, to help translators to discover articles of interest, by adding the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;page-collection&gt; &lt;/page-collection&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; tag to their campaign article list page on Meta-wiki. This will make those articles discoverable in the Content Translation tool. For more detailed information on how to use the tool and tag, please refer to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Translation suggestions: Topic-based &amp; Community-defined lists/How to use the features|the step-by-step guide]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T378958]
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Nuke|Nuke]] feature, which enables administrators to mass delete pages, now has a [[phab:T376379#10310998|multiselect filter for namespace selection]]. This enables users to select multiple specific namespaces, instead of only one or all, when fetching pages for deletion.
* The Nuke feature also now [[phab:T364225#10371365|provides links]] to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions. Thanks to Chlod and the Moderator Tools team for both of these improvements. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T364225#10371365]
* The Editing Team is working on making it easier to populate citations from archive.org using the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Citoid/Enabling Citoid on your wiki|Citoid]] tool, the auto-filled citation generator. They are asking communities to add two parameters preemptively, &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;archiveUrl&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;archiveDate&lt;/code&gt;, within the TemplateData for each citation template using Citoid. You can see an [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ACite_web%2Fdoc&amp;diff=1261320172&amp;oldid=1260788022 example of a change in a template], and a [https://global-search.toolforge.org/?namespaces=10&amp;q=%5C%22citoid%5C%22%3A%20%5C%7B&amp;regex=1&amp;title= list of all relevant templates]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T374831]
* One new wiki has been created: a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikivoyage}} in [[d:Q9240|Indonesian]] ([[voy:id:|&lt;code&gt;voy:id:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T380726]
* Last week, all wikis had problems serving pages to logged-in users and some logged-out users for 30–45 minutes. This was caused by a database problem, and investigation is ongoing. [https://www.wikimediastatus.net/incidents/3g2ckc7bp6l9]

For example, a bug in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Tools/Add a link|Add Link]] feature has been fixed. Previously, the list of sections which are excluded from Add Link was partially ignored in certain cases. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T380455][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T380329]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Codex|Codex]], the design system for Wikimedia, now has an early-stage [[gitiles:design/codex-php|implementation in PHP]]. It is available for general use in MediaWiki extensions and Toolforge apps through [https://packagist.org/packages/wikimedia/codex Composer], with use in MediaWiki core coming soon. More information is available in [[wmdoc:design-codex-php/main/index.html|the documentation]]. Thanks to Doğu for the inspiration and many contributions to the library. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T379662]
* [https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/ Wikimedia REST API] users, such as bot operators and tool maintainers, may be affected by ongoing upgrades. On December 4, the MediaWiki Interfaces team began rerouting page/revision metadata and rendered HTML content endpoints on [[testwiki:|testwiki]] from RESTbase to comparable MediaWiki REST API endpoints. The team encourages active users of these endpoints to verify their tool's behavior on testwiki and raise any concerns on the related [[phab:T374683|Phabricator ticket]] before the end of the year, as they intend to roll out the same change across all Wikimedia projects in early January. These changes are part of the work to replace the outdated [[mw:RESTBase/deprecation|RESTBase]] system.
* The [https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/986172 2024 Developer Satisfaction Survey] is seeking the opinions of the Wikimedia developer community. Please take the survey if you have any role in developing software for the Wikimedia ecosystem. The survey is open until 3 January 2025, and has an associated [[foundation:Legal:Developer Satisfaction Survey 2024 Privacy Statement|privacy statement]].
* There is no new MediaWiki version this week. [https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments/Yearly_calendar]

'''Meetings and events'''
* The next meeting in the series of [[c:Commons:WMF support for Commons/Commons community calls|Wikimedia Foundation discussions with the Wikimedia Commons community]] will take place on [[m:Event:Commons community discussion - 12 December 2024 08:00 UTC|December 12 at 8:00 UTC]] and [[m:Event:Commons community discussion - 12_December 2024 16:00 UTC|at 16:00 UTC]].

The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents extension]] offers organizers features like event registration management, event/wikiproject promotion, finding potential participants, and more - all directly on-wiki. If you are an organizer or think your community would benefit from this extension, start a discussion to enable it on your wiki today. To learn more about how to enable this extension on your wiki, visit the [[m:CampaignEvents/Deployment status#How to Request the CampaignEvents Extension for your wiki|deployment status page]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* Users of the iOS Wikipedia App in Italy and Mexico on the Italian, Spanish, and English Wikipedias, can see a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/iOS/Personalized Wikipedia Year in Review|personalized Year in Review]] with insights based on their reading and editing history.
* Users of the Android Wikipedia App in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia can see the new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Android/Rabbit Holes|Rabbit Holes]] feature. This feature shows a suggested search term in the Search bar based on the current article being viewed, and a suggested reading list generated from the user’s last two visited articles.
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Global reminder bot|global reminder bot]] is now active and running on nearly 800 wikis. This service reminds most users holding temporary rights when they are about to expire, so that they can renew should they want to. See [[m:Global reminder bot/Technical details|the technical details page]] for more information.
* The next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 13 January 2025 because of the end of year holidays. Thank you to all of the translators, and people who submitted content or feedback, this year.
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:27}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:27|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, a bug was [[phab:T374988|fixed]] in the Android Wikipedia App which had caused translatable SVG images to show the wrong language when they were tapped.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Single User Login system is being updated over the next few months. This is the system which allows users to fill out the login form on one Wikimedia site and get logged in on all others at the same time. It needs to be updated because of the ways that browsers are increasingly restricting cross-domain cookies. To accommodate these restrictions, login and account creation pages will move to a central domain, but it will still appear to the user as if they are on the originating wiki. The updated code will be enabled this week for users on test wikis. This change is planned to roll out to all users during February and March. See [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Platform Team/SUL3#Deployment|the SUL3 project page]] for more details and a timeline.

'''Updates for editors'''
* On wikis with [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:PageAssessments|PageAssessments]] installed, you can now [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:PageAssessments#Search|filter search results]] to pages in a given WikiProject by using the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;inproject:&lt;/code&gt; keyword.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Wikimedia REST API users, such as bot operators and tool maintainers, may be affected by ongoing upgrades. Starting the week of January 13, we will begin rerouting [[phab:T374683|some page content endpoints]] from RESTbase to the newer MediaWiki REST API endpoints for all wiki projects. This change was previously available on testwiki and should not affect existing functionality, but active users of the impacted endpoints may raise issues directly to the [[phab:project/view/6931/|MediaWiki Interfaces Team]] in Phabricator if they arise.
* Toolforge tool maintainers can now share their feedback on Toolforge UI, an initiative to provide a web platform that allows creating and managing Toolforge tools through a graphic interface, in addition to existing command-line workflows. This project aims to streamline active maintainers’ tasks, as well as make registration and deployment processes more accessible for new tool creators. The initiative is still at a very early stage, and the Cloud Services team is in the process of collecting feedback from the Toolforge community to help shape the solution to their needs. [[wikitech:Wikimedia Cloud Services team/EnhancementProposals/Toolforge UI|Read more and share your thoughts about Toolforge UI]]. 
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] For tool and library developers who use the OAuth system: The identity endpoint used for [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/OAuth/For Developers#Identifying the user|OAuth 1]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/OAuth/For Developers#Identifying the user 2|OAuth 2]] returned a JSON object with an integer in its &lt;code&gt;sub&lt;/code&gt; field, which was incorrect (the field must always be a string). This has been fixed; the fix will be deployed to Wikimedia wikis on the week of January 13. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T382139]
* Many wikis currently use [[:mw:Parsoid/Parser Unification/Cite CSS|Cite CSS]] to render custom footnote markers in Parsoid output. Starting January 20 these rules will be disabled, but the developers ask you to ''not'' clean up your &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[[MediaWiki:Common.css]]&lt;/bdi&gt; until February 20 to avoid issues during the migration. Your wikis might experience some small changes to footnote markers in Visual Editor and when using experimental Parsoid read mode, but if there are changes these are expected to bring the rendering in line with the legacy parser output. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T370027]

'''Meetings and events'''

'''Updates for editors'''
* Administrators can mass-delete multiple pages created by a user or IP address using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Nuke|Extension:Nuke]]. It previously only allowed deletion of pages created in the last 30 days. It can now delete pages from the last 90 days, provided it is targeting a specific user or IP address. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T380846]
* On [[phab:P72148|wikis that use]] the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Patrolled edits|Patrolled edits]] feature, when the rollback feature is used to revert an unpatrolled page revision, that revision will now be marked as &quot;manually patrolled&quot; instead of &quot;autopatrolled&quot;, which is more accurate. Some editors that use [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:New filters for edit review/Filtering|filters]] on Recent Changes may need to update their filter settings.

* iOS Wikipedia App users worldwide can now access a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/iOS/Personalized Wikipedia Year in Review/How your data is used|personalized Year in Review]] feature, which provides insights based on their reading and editing history on Wikipedia. This project is part of a broader effort to help welcome new readers as they discover and interact with encyclopedic content.
* [[File:Octicons-gift.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] Edit patrollers now have a new feature available that can highlight potentially problematic new pages. When a page is created with the same title as a page which was previously deleted, a tag ('Recreated') will now be added, which users can filter for in [[{{#special:RecentChanges}}]] and [[{{#special:NewPages}}]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T56145]
* Later this week, there will be a new warning for editors if they attempt to create a redirect that links to another redirect (a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Redirects#Double redirects|double redirect]]). The feature will recommend that they link directly to the second redirect's target page. Thanks to the user SomeRandomDeveloper for this improvement. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T326056]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Wikimedia wikis allow [[w:en:WebAuthn|WebAuthn]]-based second factor checks (such as hardware tokens) during login, but the feature is [[m:Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Miscellaneous/Fix security key (WebAuthn) support|fragile]] and has very few users.

There will also be one field rename: in the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;mediawiki_user_history&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; dump, the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;anonymous&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; field will be renamed to &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;is_anonymous&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;. The changes will take effect with the next release of the dumps in February. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/LKMFDS62TXGDN6L56F4ABXYLN7CSCQDI/]

'''Updates for editors'''
* Editors who use the &quot;Special characters&quot; editing-toolbar menu can now see the 32 special characters you have used most recently, across editing sessions on that wiki. This change should help make it easier to find the characters you use most often. The feature is in both the 2010 wikitext editor and VisualEditor. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T110722]
* Editors using the 2010 wikitext editor can now create sublists with correct indentation by selecting the line(s) you want to indent and then clicking the toolbar buttons.[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T380438] You can now also insert &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; tags using a new toolbar button.[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383010] Thanks to user stjn for these improvements.
* Help is needed to ensure the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Citoid/Enabling Citoid on your wiki|citation generator]] works properly on each wiki.
** (1) Administrators should update the local versions of the page &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;MediaWiki:Citoid-template-type-map.json&lt;/code&gt; to include entries for &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;preprint&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;standard&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;dataset&lt;/code&gt;; Here are example diffs to replicate [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3ACitoid-template-type-map.json&amp;diff=1189164774&amp;oldid=1165783565 for 'preprint'] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3ACitoid-template-type-map.json&amp;diff=1270832208&amp;oldid=1270828390 for 'standard' and 'dataset'].
** (2.1) If the citoid map in the citation template used for these types of references is missing, [[mediawikiwiki:Citoid/Enabling Citoid on your wiki#Step 2.a: Create a 'citoid' maps value for each citation template|one will need to be added]]. (2.2) If the citoid map does exist, the TemplateData will need to be updated to include new field names. Here are example updates [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ACitation%2Fdoc&amp;diff=1270829051&amp;oldid=1262470053 for 'preprint'] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template%3ACitation%2Fdoc&amp;diff=1270831369&amp;oldid=1270829480 for 'standard' and 'dataset']. The new fields that may need to be supported are &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;archiveID&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;identifier&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;repository&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;organization&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;repositoryLocation&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;committee&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;versionNumber&lt;/code&gt;. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383666]
* One new wiki has been created: a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikipedia/en}} in [[d:Q15637215|Central Kanuri]] ([[w:knc:|&lt;code&gt;w:knc:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T385181]

'''Weekly highlight'''

* The Product and Technology Advisory Council (PTAC) has published [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/February 2025 draft PTAC recommendation for feedback|a draft of their recommendations]] for the Wikimedia Foundation's Product and Technology department. They have recommended focusing on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/February 2025 draft PTAC recommendation for feedback/Mobile experiences|mobile experiences]], particularly contributions. They request community [[m:Talk:Product and Technology Advisory Council/February 2025 draft PTAC recommendation for feedback|feedback at the talk page]] by 21 February.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The &quot;Special pages&quot; portlet link will be moved from the &quot;Toolbox&quot; into the &quot;Navigation&quot; section of the main menu's sidebar by default. This change is because the Toolbox is intended for tools relating to the current page, not tools relating to the site, so the link will be more logically and consistently located. To modify this behavior and update CSS styling, administrators can follow the instructions at [[phab:T385346|T385346]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T333211]
* As part of this year's work around improving the ways readers discover content on the wikis, the Web team will be running an experiment with a small number of readers that displays some suggestions for related or interesting articles within the search bar. Please check out [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Content Discovery Experiments#Experiment 1: Display article recommendations in more prominent locations, search|the project page]] for more information.
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Template editors who use TemplateStyles can now customize output for users with specific accessibility needs by using accessibility related media queries (&lt;code dir=ltr&gt;[https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/prefers-reduced-motion prefers-reduced-motion]&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;[https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/prefers-reduced-transparency prefers-reduced-transparency]&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;[https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/prefers-contrast prefers-contrast]&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;[https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/forced-colors forced-colors]&lt;/code&gt;).

For example, the global blocks log will now be shown directly on the {{#special:CentralAuth}} page, similarly to global locks, to simplify the workflows for stewards. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T377024]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Wikidata [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Default values for labels and aliases|now supports a special language as a &quot;default for all languages&quot;]] for labels and aliases. This is to avoid excessive duplication of the same information across many languages. If your Wikidata queries use labels, you may need to update them as some existing labels are getting removed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T312511]
* The function &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;getDescription&lt;/code&gt; was invoked on every Wiki page read and accounts for ~2.5% of a page's total load time. The calculated value will now be cached, reducing load on Wikimedia servers. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383660]
* As part of the RESTBase deprecation [[mw:RESTBase/deprecation|effort]], the &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;/page/related&lt;/code&gt; endpoint has been blocked as of February 6, 2025, and will be removed soon. This timeline was chosen to align with the deprecation schedules for older Android and iOS versions. The stable alternative is the &quot;&lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;morelike&lt;/code&gt;&quot; action API in MediaWiki, and [[gerrit:c/mediawiki/services/mobileapps/+/982154/13/pagelib/src/transform/FooterReadMore.js|a migration example]] is available. The MediaWiki Interfaces team [[phab:T376297|can be contacted]] for any questions.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Communities using growth tools can now showcase one event on the &lt;code&gt;{{#special:Homepage}}&lt;/code&gt; for newcomers. This feature will help newcomers to be informed about editing activities they can participate in. Administrators can create a new event to showcase at &lt;code&gt;{{#special:CommunityConfiguration}}&lt;/code&gt;. To learn more about this feature, please read [[diffblog:2025/02/12/community-updates-module-connecting-newcomers-to-your-initiatives/|the Diff post]], have a look [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Tools/Community updates module|at the documentation]], or contact [[mw:Talk:Growth|the Growth team]].

'''Updates for editors'''
[[File:Page Frame Features on desktop.png|thumb|Highlighted talk pages improvements]]
* Starting next week, talk pages at these wikis – {{int:project-localized-name-eswiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-frwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-itwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-jawiki/en}} – will get [[diffblog:2024/05/02/making-talk-pages-better-for-everyone/|a new design]]. This change was extensively tested as a Beta feature and is the last step of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Talk pages project/Feature summary|talk pages improvements]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T379102]
* You can now navigate to view a redirect page directly from its action pages, such as the history page. Previously, you were forced to first go to the redirect target. This change should help editors who work with redirects a lot. Thanks to user stjn for this improvement. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T5324]
* When a Cite reference is reused many times, wikis currently show either numbers like &quot;1.23&quot; or localized alphabetic markers like &quot;a b c&quot; in the reference list. Previously, if there were so many reuses that the alphabetic markers were all used, [[MediaWiki:Cite error references no backlink label|an error message]] was displayed.  As part of the work to [[phab:T383036|modernize Cite customization]], these errors will no longer be shown and instead the backlinks will fall back to showing numeric markers like &quot;1.23&quot; once the alphabetic markers are all used.
* The log entries for each change to an editor's user-groups are now clearer by specifying exactly what has changed, instead of the plain before and after listings. Translators can [[phab:T369466|help to update the localized versions]]. Thanks to user Msz2001 for these improvements.
* A new filter has been added to the [[{{#special:Nuke}}]] tool, which allows administrators to mass delete pages, to enable users to filter for pages in a range of page sizes (in bytes). This allows, for example, deleting pages only of a certain size or below. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T378488]
* Non-administrators can now check which pages are able to be deleted using the [[{{#special:Nuke}}]] tool. Thanks to user MolecularPilot for this and the previous improvements. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T376378]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:25}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:25|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, a bug was fixed in the configuration for the AV1 video file format, which enables these files to play again. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T382193]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Parsoid Read Views is going to be rolling out to most Wiktionaries over the next few weeks, following the successful transition of Wikivoyage to Parsoid Read Views last year. For more information, see the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification|Parsoid/Parser Unification]] project page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T385923][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T371640]
* Developers of tools that run on-wiki should note that &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;mw.Uri&lt;/code&gt; is deprecated. Tools requiring &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;mw.Uri&lt;/code&gt; must explicitly declare &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;mediawiki.Uri&lt;/code&gt; as a ResourceLoader dependency, and should migrate to the browser native &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;URL&lt;/code&gt; API soon.

* Administrators can now customize how the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/User language|Babel feature]] creates categories using [[{{#special:CommunityConfiguration/Babel}}]]. They can rename language categories, choose whether they should be auto-created, and adjust other settings. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T374348]
* The &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[https://www.wikimedia.org/ wikimedia.org]&lt;/bdi&gt; portal has been updated – and is receiving some ongoing improvements – to modernize and improve the accessibility of our portal pages. It now has better support for mobile layouts, updated wording and links, and better language support. Additionally, all of the Wikimedia project portals, such as &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[https://wikibooks.org wikibooks.org]&lt;/bdi&gt;, now support dark mode when a reader is using that system setting. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373204][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T368221][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Project_portals]
* One new wiki has been created: a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wiktionary/en}} in [[d:Q33965|Santali]] ([[wikt:sat:|&lt;code&gt;wikt:sat:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T386619]

'''Updates for editors'''
* All logged-in editors using the mobile view can now edit a full page. The &quot;{{int:Minerva-page-actions-editfull}}&quot; link is accessible from the &quot;{{int:minerva-page-actions-overflow}}&quot; menu in the toolbar. This was previously only available to editors using the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Advanced mobile contributions|Advanced mobile contributions]] setting. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T387180]
* Interface administrators can now help to remove the deprecated Cite CSS code matching &quot;&lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;mw-ref&lt;/code&gt;&quot; from their local &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[[MediaWiki:Common.css]]&lt;/bdi&gt;. The list of wikis in need of cleanup, and the code to remove, [https://global-search.toolforge.org/?q=mw-ref%5B%5E-a-z%5D&amp;regex=1&amp;namespaces=8&amp;title=.*css can be found with this global search] and in [https://ace.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&amp;oldid=145662#L-139--L-144 this example], and you can learn more about how to help on the [[mw:Parsoid/Parser Unification/Cite CSS|CSS migration project page]]. The Cite footnote markers (&quot;&lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[1]&lt;/code&gt;&quot;) are now rendered by [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid|Parsoid]], and the deprecated CSS is no longer needed. The CSS for backlinks (&quot;&lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;mw:referencedBy&lt;/code&gt;&quot;) should remain in place for now. This cleanup is expected to cause no visible changes for readers. Please help to remove this code before March 20, after which the development team will do it for you.
* When editors embed a file (e.g. &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;[[File:MediaWiki.png]]&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;) on a page that is protected with cascading protection, the software will no longer restrict edits to the file description page, only to new file uploads.[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T24521] In contrast, transcluding a file description page (e.g. &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{:File:MediaWiki.png}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;) will now restrict edits to the page.[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T62109]
* When editors revert a file to an earlier version it will now require the same permissions as ordinarily uploading a new version of the file. The software now checks for 'reupload' or 'reupload-own' rights,[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T304474] and respects cascading protection.[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T140010]
* When administrators are listing pages for deletion with the Nuke tool, they can now also list associated talk pages and redirects for deletion, alongside pages created by the target, rather than needing to manually delete these pages afterwards. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T95797]
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2025/03|previously noted]] update to Single User Login, which will accommodate browser restrictions on cross-domain cookies by moving login and account creation to a central domain, will now roll out to all users during March and April. The team plans to enable it for all new account creation on [[wikitech:Deployments/Train#Tuesday|Group0]] wikis this week. See [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Platform Team/SUL3#Deployment|the SUL3 project page]] for more details and an updated timeline.

'''Updates for editors'''
* Editors who use password managers at multiple wikis may notice changes in the future. The way that our wikis provide information to password managers about reusing passwords across domains has recently been updated, so some password managers might now offer you login credentials that you saved for a different Wikimedia site. Some password managers already did this, and are now doing it for more Wikimedia domains. This is part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Platform Team/SUL3|SUL3 project]] which aims to improve how our unified login works, and to keep it compatible with ongoing changes to the web-browsers we use. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T385520][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T384844]
* The Wikipedia Apps Team is inviting interested users to help improve Wikipedia’s offline and limited internet use. After discussions in [[m:Afrika Baraza|Afrika Baraza]] and the last [[m:Special:MyLanguage/ESEAP Hub/Meetings|ESEAP call]], key challenges like search, editing, and offline access are being explored, with upcoming focus groups to dive deeper into these topics. All languages are welcome, and interpretation will be available. Want to share your thoughts? [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Improving Wikipedia Mobile Apps for Offline &amp; Limited Internet Use|Join the discussion]] or email &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;aramadan@wikimedia.org&lt;/bdi&gt;!
* All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on March 19. This is planned at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1742392800 14:00 UTC]. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis in the coming weeks.

* The latest quarterly [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Newsletters/33|Growth newsletter]] is available. It includes: the launch of the Community Updates module, the most recent changes in Community Configuration, and the upcoming test of in-article suggestions for first-time editors.
* An old API that was previously used in the Android Wikipedia app is being removed at the end of March. There are no current software uses, but users of the app with a version that is older than 6 months by the time of removal (2025-03-31), will no longer have access to the Suggested Edits feature, until they update their app. You can [[diffblog:2025/02/24/sunset-of-wikimedia-recommendation-api/|read more details about this change]].

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Twice a year, around the equinoxes, the Wikimedia Foundation's Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team performs [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|a datacenter server switchover]], redirecting all traffic from one primary server to its backup. This provides reliability in case of a crisis, as we can always fall back on the other datacenter. [http://listen.hatnote.com/ Thanks to the Listen to Wikipedia] tool, you can hear the switchover take place: Before it begins, you'll hear the steady stream of edits; Then, as the system enters a brief read-only phase, the sound stops for a couple of minutes, before resuming after the switchover. You can [[diffblog:2025/03/12/hear-that-the-wikis-go-silent-twice-a-year/|read more about the background and details of this process on the Diff blog]]. If you want to keep an ear out for the next server switchover, listen to the wikis on [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1742392800 March 19 at 14:00 UTC].

'''Updates for editors'''

* The [https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ContentTranslation&amp;filter-type=automatic&amp;filter-id=previous-edits&amp;active-list=suggestions&amp;from=en&amp;to=es improved Content Translation tool dashboard] is now available in [[phab:T387820|10 Wikipedias]] and will be available for all Wikipedias [[phab:T387821|soon]]. With [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation#Improved translation experience|the unified dashboard]], desktop users can now: Translate new sections of an article; Discover and access topic-based [https://ig.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ContentTranslation&amp;active-list=suggestions&amp;from=en&amp;to=ig&amp;filter-type=automatic&amp;filter-id=previous-edits article suggestion filters] (initially available only for mobile device users); Discover and access the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Translation suggestions: Topic-based &amp; Community-defined lists|Community-defined lists]] filter, also known as &quot;Collections&quot;, from wiki-projects and campaigns.
* On Wikimedia Commons, a [[c:Commons:WMF support for Commons/Upload Wizard Improvements#Improve category selection|new system to select the appropriate file categories]] has been introduced: if a category has one or more subcategories, users will be able to click on an arrow that will open the subcategories directly within the form, and choose the correct one. The parent category name will always be shown on top, and it will always be possible to come back to it. This should decrease the amount of work for volunteers in fixing/creating new categories. The change is also available on mobile. These changes are part of planned improvements to the UploadWizard.
* The Community Tech team is seeking wikis to join a pilot for the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Multiblocks|Multiblocks]] feature and a refreshed Special:Block page in late March. Multiblocks enables administrators to impose multiple different types of blocks on the same user at the same time. If you are an admin or steward and would like us to discuss joining the pilot with your community, please leave a message on the [[m:Talk:Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Multiblocks|project talk page]].
* Starting March 25, the Editing team will test a new feature for Edit Check at [[phab:T384372|12 Wikipedias]]: [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#Multi-check|Multi-Check]]. Half of the newcomers on these wikis will see all [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#ref|Reference Checks]] during their edit session, while the other half will continue seeing only one. The goal of this test is to see if users are confused or discouraged when shown multiple Reference Checks (when relevant) within a single editing session. At these wikis, the tags used on edits that show References Check will be simplified, as multiple tags could be shown within a single edit. Changes to the tags are documented [[phab:T373949|on Phabricator]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T379131]
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Global reminder bot|Global reminder bot]], which is a service for notifying users that their temporary user-rights are about to expire, now supports using the localized name of the user-rights group in the message heading. Translators can see the [[m:Global reminder bot/Translation|listing of existing translations and documentation]] to check if their language needs updating or creation.
* The [[Special:GlobalPreferences|GlobalPreferences]] gender setting, which is used for how the software should refer to you in interface messages, now works as expected by overriding the local defaults. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T386584]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Later this week, the way that Codex styles are loaded will be changing. There is a small risk that this may result in unstyled interface message boxes on certain pages. User generated content (e.g. templates) is not impacted. Gadgets may be impacted. If you see any issues [[phab:T388847|please report them]]. See the linked task for details, screenshots, and documentation on how to fix any affected gadgets.

Please share your feedback on the talkpage, in any language, ideally before the end of April.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents extension]] will be released to multiple wikis (see [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Deployment status#Global Deployment Plan|deployment plan]] for details) in April 2025, and the team has begun the process of engaging communities on the identified wikis. The extension provides tools to organize, manage, and promote collaborative activities (like events, edit-a-thons, and WikiProjects) on the wikis. The extension has three tools: [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event Center/Registration|Event Registration]], [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Collaboration list|Collaboration List]], and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Campaigns/Foundation Product Team/Invitation list|Invitation Lists]]. It is currently on 13 Wikipedias, including English Wikipedia, French Wikipedia, and Spanish Wikipedia, as well as Wikidata. Questions or requests can be directed to the [[mw:Help talk:Extension:CampaignEvents|extension talk page]] or in Phabricator (with &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;white-space: nowrap;&quot;&gt;#campaigns-product-team&lt;/bdi&gt; tag).
* Starting the week of March 31st, wikis will be able to set which user groups can view private registrants in [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event Center/Registration|Event Registration]], as part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents]] extension. By default, event organizers and the local wiki admins will be able to see private registrants. This is a change from the current behavior, in which only event organizers can see private registrants. Wikis can change the default setup by [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Requesting wiki configuration changes|requesting a configuration change]] in Phabricator (and adding the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;white-space: nowrap;&quot;&gt;#campaigns-product-team&lt;/bdi&gt; tag). Participants of past events can cancel their registration at any time.
* Administrators at wikis that have a customized &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[[MediaWiki:Sidebar]]&lt;/bdi&gt; should check that it contains an entry for the {{int:specialpages}} listing. If it does not, they should add it using &lt;code dir=ltr style=&quot;white-space: nowrap;&quot;&gt;* specialpages-url|specialpages&lt;/code&gt;. Wikis with a default sidebar will see the link moved from the page toolbox into the sidebar menu in April. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T388927]
* The Minerva skin (mobile web) combines both Notice and Alert notifications within the bell icon ([[File:OOjs UI icon bell.svg|16px|link=|class=skin-invert]]). There was a long-standing bug where an indication for new notifications was only shown if you had unseen Alerts. This bug is now fixed. In the future, Minerva users will notice a counter atop the bell icon when you have 1 or more unseen Notices and/or Alerts. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T344029]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* VisualEditor has introduced a [[mw:VisualEditor/Hooks|new client-side hook]] for developers to use when integrating with the VisualEditor target lifecycle. This hook should replace the existing lifecycle-related hooks, and be more consistent between different platforms. In addition, the new hook will apply to uses of VisualEditor outside of just full article editing, allowing gadgets to interact with the editor in DiscussionTools as well. The Editing Team intends to deprecate and eventually remove the old lifecycle hooks, so any use cases that this new hook does not cover would be of interest to them and can be [[phab:T355555|shared in the task]].
* Developers who use the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;mw.Api&lt;/code&gt; JavaScript library, can now identify the tool using it with the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;userAgent&lt;/code&gt; parameter: &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;var api = new mw.Api( { userAgent: 'GadgetNameHere/1.0.1' } );&lt;/code&gt;. If you maintain a gadget or user script, please set a user agent, because it helps with library and server maintenance and with differentiating between legitimate and illegitimate traffic.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Editing team is working on a new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit Check|Edit check]]: [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check#26 March 2025|Peacock check]]. This check's goal is to identify non-neutral terms while a user is editing a wikipage, so that they can be informed that their edit should perhaps be changed before they publish it. This project is at the early stages, and the team is looking for communities' input: [[phab:T389445|in this Phabricator task]], they are gathering on-wiki policies, templates used to tag non-neutral articles, and the terms (jargon and keywords) used in edit summaries for the languages they are currently researching. You can participate by editing the table on Phabricator, commenting on the task, or directly messaging [[m:user:Trizek (WMF)|Trizek (WMF)]].
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Platform Team/SUL3|Single User Login]] has now been updated on all wikis to move login and account creation to a central domain. This makes user login compatible with browser restrictions on cross-domain cookies, which have prevented users of some browsers from staying logged in.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Starting on March 31st, the MediaWiki Interfaces team will begin a limited release of generated OpenAPI specs and a SwaggerUI-based sandbox experience for [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:REST API|MediaWiki REST APIs]]. They invite developers from a limited group of non-English Wikipedia communities (Arabic, German, French, Hebrew, Interlingua, Dutch, Chinese) to review the documentation and experiment with the sandbox in their preferred language. In addition to these specific Wikipedia projects, the sandbox and OpenAPI spec will be available on the [[testwiki:Special:RestSandbox|on the test wiki REST Sandbox special page]] for developers with English as their preferred language. During the preview period, the MediaWiki Interfaces Team also invites developers to [[mw:MediaWiki Interfaces Team/Feature Feedback/REST Sandbox|share feedback about your experience]]. The preview will last for approximately 2 weeks, after which the sandbox and OpenAPI specs will be made available across all wiki projects.

'''In depth'''
* Sometimes a small, [[gerrit:c/operations/cookbooks/+/1129184|one line code change]] can have great significance: in this case, it means that for the first time in years we're able to run all of the stack serving &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[http://maps.wikimedia.org/ maps.wikimedia.org]&lt;/bdi&gt; - a host dedicated to serving our wikis and their multi-lingual maps needs - from a single core datacenter, something we test every time we perform a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|datacenter switchover]]. This is important because it means that in case one of our datacenters is affected by a catastrophe, we'll still be able to serve the site. This change is the result of [[phab:T216826|extensive work]] by two developers on porting the last component of the maps stack over to [[w:en:Kubernetes|kubernetes]], where we can allocate resources more efficiently than before, thus we're able to withstand more traffic in a single datacenter. This work involved a lot of complicated steps because this software, and the software libraries it uses, required many long overdue upgrades. This type of work makes the Wikimedia infrastructure more sustainable.

'''Meetings and events'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Users and Developers Workshop Spring 2025|MediaWiki Users and Developers Workshop Spring 2025]] is happening in Sandusky, USA, and online, from 14–16 May 2025. The workshop will feature discussions around the usage of MediaWiki software by and within companies in different industries and will inspire and onboard new users. Registration and presentation signup is now available at the workshop's website.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Later this week, the default thumbnail size will be increased from 220px to 250px. This changes how pages are shown in all wikis and has been requested by some communities for many years, but wasn't previously possible due to technical limitations. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T355914]
* File thumbnails are now stored in discrete sizes. If a page specifies a thumbnail size that's not among the standard sizes (20, 40, 60, 120, 250, 330, 500, 960), then MediaWiki will pick the closest larger thumbnail size but will tell the browser to downscale it to the requested size. In these cases, nothing will change visually but users might load slightly larger images. If it doesn't matter which thumbnail size is used in a page, please pick one of the standard sizes to avoid the extra in-browser down-scaling step.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Wikimedia Foundation are working on a system called [[m:Edge Uniques|Edge Uniques]] which will enable [[:w:en:A/B testing|A/B testing]], help protect against [[:w:en:Denial-of-service attack|Distributed denial-of-service attacks]] (DDoS attacks), and make it easier to understand how many visitors the Wikimedia sites have. This is so that they can more efficiently build tools which help readers, and make it easier for readers to find what they are looking for.
* To improve security for users, a small percentage of logins will now require that the account owner input a one-time password [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:EmailAuth|emailed to their account]]. It is recommended that you [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-personal-email|check]] that the email address on your account is set correctly, and that it has been confirmed, and that you have an email set for this purpose. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T390662]
* &quot;Are you interested in taking a short survey to improve tools used for reviewing or reverting edits on your Wiki?&quot; This question will be [[phab:T389401|asked at 7 wikis starting next week]], on Recent Changes and Watchlist pages. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Moderator Tools|Moderator Tools team]] wants to know more about activities that involve looking at new edits made to your Wikimedia project, and determining whether they adhere to your project's policies.
* On April 15, the full Wikidata graph will no longer be supported on &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[https://query.wikidata.org/ query.wikidata.org]&lt;/bdi&gt;. After this date, scholarly articles will be available through &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;white-space:nowrap;&quot;&gt;[https://query-scholarly.wikidata.org/ query-scholarly.wikidata.org]&lt;/bdi&gt;, while the rest of the data hosted on Wikidata will be available through the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[https://query.wikidata.org/ query.wikidata.org]&lt;/bdi&gt; endpoint. This is part of the scheduled split of the Wikidata Graph, which was [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:SPARQL query service/WDQS backend update/September 2024 scaling update|announced in September 2024]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Main Page|Wikifunctions]] is now integrated with [[w:dag:Solɔɣu|Dagbani Wikipedia]] since April 15. It is the first project that will be able to call [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Introduction|functions from Wikifunctions]] and integrate them in articles. A function is something that takes one or more inputs and transforms them into a desired output, such as adding up two numbers, converting miles into metres, calculating how much time has passed since an event, or declining a word into a case. Wikifunctions will allow users to do that through a simple call of [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Catalogue|a stable and global function]], rather than via a local template. [https://www.wikifunctions.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status_updates/2025-04-16]

'''Updates for editors'''
* For wikis that have the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Deployment status|CampaignEvents extension enabled]], two new feature improvements have been released:
** Admins can now choose which namespaces are permitted for [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event Center/Registration|Event Registration]] via [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Community Configuration|Community Configuration]] ([[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents/Registration/Permitted namespaces|documentation]]). The default setup is for event registration to be permitted in the Event namespace, but other namespaces (such as the project namespace or WikiProject namespace) can now be added. With this change, communities like WikiProjects can now more easily use Event Registration for their collaborative activities.
** Editors can now [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Transclusion|transclude]] the Collaboration List on a wiki page ([[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents/Collaboration list/Transclusion|documentation]]). The Collaboration List is an automated list of events and WikiProjects on the wikis, accessed via {{#special:AllEvents}} ([[w:en:Special:AllEvents|example]]). Now, the Collaboration List can be added to all sorts of wiki pages, such as: a wiki mainpage, a WikiProject page, an affiliate page, an event page, or even a user page.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Developers who use the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;moment&lt;/code&gt; library in gadgets and user scripts should revise their code to use alternatives like the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;Intl&lt;/code&gt; library or the new &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;mediawiki.DateFormatter&lt;/code&gt; library. The &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;moment&lt;/code&gt; library has been deprecated and will begin to log messages in the developer console. You can see a global search for current uses, and [[phab:T392532|ask related questions in this Phabricator task]].
* Developers who maintain a tool that queries the Wikidata term store tables (&lt;code dir=ltr style=&quot;white-space: nowrap;&quot;&gt;wbt_*&lt;/code&gt;) need to update their code to connect to a separate database cluster. These tables are being split into a separate database cluster. Tools that query those tables via the wiki replicas must be adapted to connect to the new cluster instead. [[wikitech:News/2025 Wikidata term store database split|Documentation and related links are available]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T390954]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Editing Team and the Machine Learning Team are working on a new check for newcomers: [[mw:Edit check/Peacock check|Peacock check]]. Using a prediction model, this check will encourage editors to improve the tone of their edits, using artificial intelligence. We invite volunteers to review the first version of the Peacock language model for the following languages: Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese, English, and Japanese. Users from these wikis interested in reviewing this model are [[mw:Edit check/Peacock check/model test|invited to sign up at MediaWiki.org]]. The deadline to sign up is on May 23, which will be the start date of the test.

'''Updates for editors'''

* From May 20, 2025, [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Oversight policy|oversighters]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Meta:CheckUsers|checkusers]] will need to have their accounts secured with two-factor authentication (2FA) to be able to use their advanced rights. All users who belong to these two groups and do not have 2FA enabled have been informed. In the future, this requirement may be extended to other users with advanced rights. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Mandatory two-factor authentication for users with some extended rights|Learn more]].
* [[File:Octicons-gift.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]]  [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Multiblocks|Multiblocks]] will begin mass deployment by the end of the month: all non-Wikipedia projects plus Catalan Wikipedia will adopt Multiblocks in the week of May 26, while all other Wikipedias will adopt it in the week of June 2. Please [[m:Talk:Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Multiblocks|contact the team]] if you have concerns. Administrators can test the new user interface now on your own wiki by browsing to [{{fullurl:Special:Block|usecodex=1}} {{#special:Block}}?usecodex=1], and can test the full multiblocks functionality [[testwiki:Special:Block|on testwiki]]. Multiblocks is the feature that makes it possible for administrators to impose different types of blocks on the same user at the same time. See the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Manage blocks|help page]] for more information. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T377121]
* Later this week, the [[{{#special:SpecialPages}}]] listing of almost all special pages will be updated with a new design. This page has been [[phab:T219543|redesigned]] to improve the user experience in a few ways, including: The ability to search for names and aliases of the special pages, sorting, more visible marking of restricted special pages, and a more mobile-friendly look. The new version can be [https://meta.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:SpecialPages previewed] at Beta Cluster now, and feedback shared in the task. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T219543]
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart|Chart extension]] is being enabled on more wikis. For a detailed list of when the extension will be enabled on your wiki, please read the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart/Project#Deployment Timeline|deployment timeline]].
* [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Main Page|Wikifunctions]] will be deployed on May 27 on five Wiktionaries: [[wikt:ha:|Hausa]], [[wikt:ig:|Igbo]], [[wikt:bn:|Bengali]], [[wikt:ml:|Malayalam]], and [[wikt:dv:|Dhivehi/Maldivian]]. This is the second batch of deployment planned for the project. After deployment, the projects will be able to call [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Introduction|functions from Wikifunctions]] and integrate them in their pages. A function is something that takes one or more inputs and transforms them into a desired output, such as adding up two numbers, converting miles into metres, calculating how much time has passed since an event, or declining a word into a case. Wikifunctions will allow users to do that through a simple call of [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Catalogue|a stable and global function]], rather than via a local template.
* Later this week, the Wikimedia Foundation will publish a hub for [[diffblog:2024/07/09/on-the-value-of-experimentation/|experiments]]. This is to showcase and get user feedback on product experiments. The experiments help the Wikimedia movement [[diffblog:2023/07/13/exploring-paths-for-the-future-of-free-knowledge-new-wikipedia-chatgpt-plugin-leveraging-rich-media-social-apps-and-other-experiments/|understand new users]], how they interact with the internet and how it could affect the Wikimedia movement. Some examples are [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Future Audiences/Generated Video|generated video]], the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Future Audiences/Roblox game|Wikipedia Roblox speedrun game]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Future Audiences/Discord bot|the Discord bot]].

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Gadgets and user scripts that interact with [[{{#special:Block}}]] may need to be updated to work with the new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Manage blocks|manage blocks interface]]. Please review the [[mw:Help:Manage blocks/Developers|developer guide]] for more information. If you need help or are unable to adapt your script to the new interface, please let the team know on the [[mw:Help talk:Manage blocks/Developers|talk page]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T377121]
* The &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;mw.title&lt;/code&gt; object allows you to get information about a specific wiki page in the [[w:en:Wikipedia:Lua|Lua]] programming language. Starting this week, a new property will be added to the object, named &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;isDisambiguationPage&lt;/code&gt;. This property allows you to check if a page is a disambiguation page, without the need to write a custom function. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T71441]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] User script developers can use a [[toolforge:gitlab-content|new reverse proxy tool]] to load javascript and css from [[gitlab:|gitlab.wikimedia.org]] with &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;mw.loader.load&lt;/code&gt;. The tool's author hopes this will enable collaborative development workflows for user scripts including linting, unit tests, code generation, and code review on &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;gitlab.wikimedia.org&lt;/bdi&gt; without a separate copy-and-paste step to publish scripts to a Wikimedia wiki for integration and acceptance testing. See [[wikitech:Tool:Gitlab-content|Tool:Gitlab-content on Wikitech]] for more information.

'''Meetings and events'''
* The 12th edition of [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wiki Workshop 2025|Wiki Workshop 2025]], a forum that brings together researchers that explore all aspects of Wikimedia projects, will be held virtually on 21-22 May. Researchers can [https://pretix.eu/wikimedia/wikiworkshop2025/ register now].

'''Weekly highlight'''
* A community-wide discussion about a very delicate issue for the development of [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Abstract Wikipedia|Abstract Wikipedia]] is now open on Meta: where to store the abstract content that will be developed through functions from Wikifunctions and data from Wikidata. The discussion is open until June 12 at [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Abstract Wikipedia/Location of Abstract Content|Abstract Wikipedia/Location of Abstract Content]], and every opinion is welcomed. The decision will be made and communicated after the consultation period by the Foundation.

'''Updates for editors'''
* Since last week, on all wikis except [[phab:T388604|the largest 20]], people using the mobile visual editor will have [[phab:T385851|additional tools in the menu bar]], accessed using the new &lt;code&gt;+&lt;/code&gt; toolbar button. To start, the new menu will include options to add: citations, hieroglyphs, and code blocks. Deployment to the remaining wikis is [[phab:T388605|scheduled]] to happen in June.
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] The &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##ifexist|#ifexist]]&lt;/code&gt; parser function will no longer register a link to its target page. This will improve the usefulness of [[{{#special:WantedPages}}]], which will eventually only list pages that are the target of an actual red link. This change will happen gradually as the source pages are updated. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T14019]
* This week, the Moderator Tools team will launch [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2025 RecentChanges Language Agnostic Revert Risk Filtering|a new filter to Recent Changes]], starting at Indonesian Wikipedia. This new filter highlights edits that are likely to be reverted. The goal is to help Recent Changes patrollers identify potentially problematic edits. Other wikis will benefit from this filter in the future.
* Upon clicking an empty search bar, logged-out users will see suggestions of articles for further reading. The feature will be available on both desktop and mobile. Readers of Catalan, Hebrew, and Italian Wikipedias and some sister projects will receive the change between May 21 and mid-June. Readers of other wikis will receive the change later. The goal is to encourage users to read the wikis more. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Content Discovery Experiments/Search Suggestions|Learn more]].
* Some users of the Wikipedia Android app can use a new feature for readers, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Android/TrivaGame|WikiGames]], a daily trivia game based on real historical events. The release has started as an A/B test, available to 50% of users in the following languages: English, French, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, and Turkish.
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Newsletter|Newsletter extension]] that is available on MediaWiki.org allows the creation of [[mw:Special:Newsletters|various newsletters]] for global users. The extension can now publish new issues as section links on an existing page, instead of requiring a new page for each issue. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T393844]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart|Chart extension]] is now available on all Wikimedia wikis. Editors can use this new extension to create interactive data visualizations like bar, line, area, and pie charts. Charts are designed to replace many of the uses of the legacy [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Graph|Graph extension]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* It is now easier to configure automatic citations for your wiki within the visual editor's [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Citoid/Enabling Citoid on your wiki|citation generator]]. Administrators can now set a default template by using the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;_default&lt;/code&gt; key in the local &lt;bdi lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[[MediaWiki:Citoid-template-type-map.json]]&lt;/bdi&gt; page ([[mw:Special:Diff/6969653/7646386|example diff]]). Setting this default will also help to future-proof your existing configurations when [[phab:T347823|new item types]] are added in the future. You can still set templates for individual item types as they will be preferred to the default template. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T384709]

* Starting the week of June 2, bots logging in using &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;action=login&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;action=clientlogin&lt;/code&gt; will fail more often. This is because of stronger protections against suspicious logins. Bots using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Bot passwords|bot passwords]] or using a loginless authentication method such as [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/OAuth/Owner-only consumers|OAuth]] are not affected. If your bot is not using one of those, you should update it; using &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;action=login&lt;/code&gt; without a bot password was deprecated [[listarchive:list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/message/3EEMN7VQX5G7WMQI5K2GP5JC2336DPTD/|in 2016]]. For most bots, this only requires changing what password the bot uses. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T395205]
* From this week, Wikimedia wikis will allow ES2017 features in JavaScript code for official code, gadgets, and user scripts. The most visible feature of ES2017 is &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;async&lt;/code&gt;/&lt;code&gt;await&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; syntax, allowing for easier-to-read code. Until this week, the platform only allowed up to ES2016, and a few months before that, up to ES2015. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T381537]

* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product|Trust and Safety Product team]] is finalizing work needed to roll out [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] on large Wikipedias later this month. The team has worked with stewards and other users with extended rights to predict and address many use cases that may arise on larger wikis, so that community members can continue to effectively moderate and patrol temporary accounts. This will be the second of three phases of deployment – the last one will take place in September at the earliest.

This feature was requested by stewards. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T386492]
* This week, the Moderator Tools and Machine Learning teams will continue the rollout of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2025 RecentChanges Language Agnostic Revert Risk Filtering|a new filter to Recent Changes]], releasing it to several more Wikipedias. This filter utilizes the Revert Risk model, which was created by the Research team, to highlight edits that are likely to be reverted and help Recent Changes patrollers identify potentially problematic contributions. The feature will be rolled out to the following Wikipedias: {{int:project-localized-name-afwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-bewiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-bnwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-cywiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-hawwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-iswiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-kkwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-simplewiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-trwiki/en}}.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* This week, the Moderator Tools and Machine Learning teams will continue the rollout of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2025 RecentChanges Language Agnostic Revert Risk Filtering|a new filter to Recent Changes]], releasing it to the third and last batch of Wikipedias. This filter utilizes the Revert Risk model, which was created by the Research team, to highlight edits that are likely to be reverted and help Recent Changes patrollers identify potentially problematic contributions. The feature will be rolled out to the following Wikipedias: {{int:project-localized-name-azwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-lawiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-mkwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-mlwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-mrwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-nnwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-pawiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-swwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-tewiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-tlwiki/en}}. The rollout will continue in the coming weeks to include [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2025 RecentChanges Language Agnostic Revert Risk Filtering|the rest of the Wikipedias in this project]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T391964]

'''Updates for editors'''
* Last week, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] were rolled out on Czech, Korean, and Turkish Wikipedias. This and next week, deployments on larger Wikipedias will follow. [[mw:Talk:Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|Share your thoughts]] about the project. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T340001]
* Later this week, the Editing team will release [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#Multi check|Multi Check]] to all Wikipedias (except English Wikipedia). This feature shows multiple [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#Reference check|Reference checks]] within the editing experience. This encourages users to add citations when they add multiple new paragraphs to a Wikipedia article. This feature was previously available as an A/B test. [https://analytics.wikimedia.org/published/reports/editing/multi_check_ab_test_report_final.html#summary-of-results The test shows] that users who are shown multiple checks are 1.3 times more likely to add a reference to their edit, and their edit is less likely to be reverted (-34.7%). [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T395519]
* A few pages need to be renamed due to software updates and to match more recent Unicode standards. All of these changes are related to title-casing changes. Approximately 71 pages and 3 files will be renamed, across 15 wikis; the complete list is in [[phab:T396903|the task]]. The developers will rename these pages next week, and they will fix redirects and embedded file links a few minutes later via a system settings update.
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:24}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:24|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, a bug was fixed that had caused pages to scroll upwards when text near the top was selected. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T364023]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Editors can now use Lua modules to filter and transform tabular data for use with [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart|Extension:Chart]]. This can be used for things like selecting a subset of rows or columns from the source data, converting between units, statistical processing, and many other useful transformations. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart/Transforms|Information on how to use transforms is available]]. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart/Project/Updates]
* The &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;all_links&lt;/code&gt; variable in [[Special:AbuseFilter|AbuseFilter]] is now renamed to &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;new_links&lt;/code&gt; for consistency with other variables. Old usages will still continue to work. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T391811]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.45/wmf.7|MediaWiki]]

Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2025/32|Translations]] are available.

'''Updates for editors'''
* Editors can now enable the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Anti-abuse signals/User Info|User Info card]]. This feature adds an icon next to usernames on history pages and similar user-contribution log pages. When you tap or click on the icon, it displays data related to that user account such as the number of edits, reverted edits, blocks, and more. It's part of a broader project to make it easier for moderators to evaluate account trustworthiness. The feature can be enabled in [[testwiki:Special:GlobalPreferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|your global preferences]], and later this week it will be available in local preferences. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T386439]
* Everybody is invited to share comments on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Collaborative contributions|Collaborative Contributions]], a project recently launched by the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Connection Team|Connection team]]. The project aims to create a new way to display the impact of collaborative editing activities (such as edit-a-thons, backlog drives, and WikiProjects) on the wikis. Post your comments on the [[m:Talk:CampaignEvents/Collaborative contributions|project talk page]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T378035]
* Administrators can now define the default block duration for temporary accounts. To do that, they need to create a page named &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;MediaWiki:Ipb-default-expiry-temporary-account&lt;/code&gt; and use a value defined in &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;MediaWiki:Ipboptions&lt;/code&gt;. This allows administrators to easily block temporary accounts for 90 days, which is functionally equivalent to an indefinite block. The advantage of this solution is that it does not clutter Special:BlockList. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Block and unblock#Default block duration options|More documentation]] is available. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T398626]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:27}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:27|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Gadgets can now include &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;.vue&lt;/code&gt; files. This makes it easier to develop modern user interfaces using [[mw:Vue.js|Vue.js]], in particular using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Codex|Codex]], the official design system of Wikimedia. [[wmdoc:codex/latest/icons/overview.html|Codex icons]] can be loaded through the gadget definition. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Gadgets#Pages|The documentation]] has examples. For user scripts that use Vue.js, an [[mw:API:CodexIcons|API module]] now exists to load Codex icons. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T340460][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T311099]
* Module developers can now use a [[mw:Help:Extension:Translate/Message Bundles/Lua reference|Lua interface]] to simplify the preparation of Lua modules for translation on Meta-Wiki. This improvement makes it easier for translators to find and edit module strings without dealing with raw Lua code. It helps prevent mistakes that could break the module during translation. Module developers and translators are invited to [[commons:File:Translatable modules video demo July 2025.webm|watch the demo video]], read more about [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Translatable modules|translatable modules]] to understand how it works, refer to Meta-Wiki's [[m:Module:User Wikimedia project|Module:User Wikimedia project]] for example usage, and [[mw:Talk:Translatable modules|share their feedback]] on how well it addresses the challenges in their workflow. The interface still has some performance issues, so it should not be used in widely used modules yet. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T359918]
* Developers of external tools that connect to Wikimedia pages must set a user-agent that complies with [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Wikimedia Foundation User-Agent Policy|the user-agent policy]]. This policy will start to be more strongly enforced in August because of external crawlers that are [[diffblog:2025/04/01/how-crawlers-impact-the-operations-of-the-wikimedia-projects/|overusing]] Wikimedia's resources. Tools that are hosted on Wikimedia's Toolforge or Cloud VPS will not be affected by this for now, but should still set a user-agent. [[phab:T400119|More technical details are available]], and related questions are welcome in that task.
* Parsoid Read Views is going to be rolling out to some smaller Wikipedias over the next few weeks, following the successful transition of Wikivoyages and Wiktionaries to Parsoid Read Views. For more information, see the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification|Parsoid/Parser Unification]] project page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/profile/7694/]

'''Updates for editors'''
* The WikiEditor toolbar now includes [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:WikiEditor#Keyboard shortcuts|its keyboard shortcuts]] in the tooltips for its buttons. This will help to improve the discoverability of this feature. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T400583]
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council|Product and Technology Advisory Council]] published a set of [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/August 2025 draft PTAC proposals for feedback|proposed experiments]] the Wikimedia Foundation can try to improve communication with community. Feedback on the proposals are welcomed until August 22 on [[m:Talk:Product and Technology Advisory Council/August 2025 draft PTAC proposals for feedback|this talk page]].
* The search bar on the Minerva skin (mobile) has been updated to use the same type-ahead search component that is used on the Vector 2022 skin. There are no changes in search functionality but there are minor visual changes. Specifically, the close-search button has been changed from an &quot;X&quot; to a back arrow. This helps to distinguish it from the other &quot;X&quot; button that is used to clear any text. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T393944]
* Editors on some wikis will see a new toggle for &quot;Group results by page&quot; on watchlist, related changes, and recent changes pages. This is [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Moderator Tools/Watchlist/Experiment|an A/B experiment]] that is planned to start on August 11, and will run for 3–6 weeks on the Bengali, Chinese, Czech, French, Greek, Portuguese, and Urdu Wikipedias. The experiment will examine how making this feature more discoverable might affect editors' ability to find the edits they are looking for. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T396789]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:31}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:31|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The multiwiki datasets of [[:wikt:en:Module:Unicode data|Unicode data]] have been moved to [[c:Category:Unicode Module Datasets|Category:Unicode Module Datasets]] on Wikimedia Commons, to follow the idea of &quot;One common data source, multiple local wikis&quot;. Most wikis have been updated to use the Commons version. You can ask questions at [[c:Category talk:Unicode Module Datasets|the talkpage]]. [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Module_talk:Unicode_data#Data_from_commons]
* Lua code can add warnings when something is wrong, by using the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;mw.addWarning()&lt;/code&gt; function. It is now possible to add more than one warning, instead of new warnings replacing old ones. If you maintain a Lua module that used warnings, you should check it still works as expected.

* An A/A test to measure the baseline for reader retention was launched 12 August using [[wikitech:Experimentation Lab|Experimentation Lab]]. This measures the percentage of users who revisit a wiki after their initial visit over a 14-day period. No visual changes are expected. The experiment will run through 31 August.

'''Updates for editors'''
* [[File:Octicons-gift.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Template authors can now use additional CSS properties, since the CSS sanitizer used by [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:TemplateStyles|TemplateStyles]] was updated. For example: &lt;code&gt;width: fit-content&lt;/code&gt;; &lt;code&gt;ruby-align&lt;/code&gt;; relative units such as &lt;code&gt;lh&lt;/code&gt;; and custom strings in &lt;code&gt;list-style-type&lt;/code&gt;.

* On large wikis, the default time period to display edits from, within the Special:RecentChanges page, has been changed from 7 days to 1 day. This is part of a performance improvement project. This should have no user-facing impact due to the quantity of edits on these wikis. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T399455]
* Administrators can now access the [[{{#special:BlockedExternalDomains}}]] page from the [[{{#special:CommunityConfiguration}}]] list page. This makes it easier to find. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T393240]
* Wikimedia Commons videos were not shown in the Videos tab in Google Search. The problem was investigated and reported to Google who have now fixed the issue.

Queries to these older fields will start to fail starting this week and developers should use &lt;code&gt;rc_source&lt;/code&gt; instead. These older fields were deprecated over 10 years ago and should not be in use. This is part of work to improve the performance and stability of queries to the recentchanges table.

'''In depth'''
* The latest quarterly [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Language and Product Localization/Newsletter/2025/July|Language and Internationalization Newsletter]] is now available. This edition includes: support for new languages in MediaWiki and translatewiki; the start of the Language Onboarding and Development project to help support the growth of new and small wikis; updates on research projects; and more.

'''Meetings and events'''
* The next [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Language and Product Localization/Community meetings#29 August 2025|Language Community Meeting]] is happening soon, August 29th at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1756479600 15:00 UTC]. This week's meeting will cover: the Avro keyboard developers from Wikimedia Bangladesh, who were recently awarded a national award for their contributions to this keyboard; and other topics.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Editing team wants to compile a list of templates, jargon terms, and policies used in edit summaries when a copyright violation is removed. This will help them identify the number of edits reverted due to copyright issues. We invite community members from the following Wikis to list these terms in [[Phab:T402601|T402601]], or to share their list with [[User:Trizek (WMF)|Trizek_(WMF)]]: {{int:project-localized-name-arwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-cswiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-dewiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-enwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-eswiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-fawiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-frwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-hewiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-idwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-itwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-jawiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-kowiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-nlwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-plwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-ptwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-trwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-ukwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-viwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-zhwiki/en}}.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents extension]] has been enabled for all Wikisources. The extension makes it easier to organize and participate in collaborative activities, like edit-a-thons and WikiProjects, on the wikis. The extension has three features: [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event Center/Registration|Event Registration]], [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Collaboration list|Collaboration List]], and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Connection Team/Invitation list|Invitation List]]. To request the extension for your wiki, visit the Deployment information page.

* Upon clicking an empty search bar, logged-out users will see suggestions of articles for further reading on English Wikipedia beginning the week of September 22. The feature will be available on both desktop and mobile. All non-English wikis received this change in June and July. The goal is to make it easier for users to find articles.

* Wikifunctions now has a new capability called &quot;lightweight enumeration types&quot;, an enumeration type is simply a fixed set of values that's in the type's definition. This capability makes it quick and easy to define such a type, and allows for the reuse of values that are already present in Wikidata. Here is [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2025-07-19|a newsletter]] to learn more.
* The latest [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Newsletter updates#August 2025: Newsletter #1|Readers Newsletter]] is now available. This edition includes: the formation of two new teams — Reader Growth and Reader Experience; insights into declining pageviews and account creations; highlights from the Wikimania Nairobi panel on improving the reading experience; upcoming experiments to engage new and existing readers; and more.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Editing team is working on a new check: [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Paste check|Paste check]]. This check informs newcomers who paste text into Wikipedia that the content might not be accepted. This check is an effort to increase the likelihood that the new content people are adding to Wikipedia is aligned with the Movement's commitment to offering information under a free content license. This check will soon be tested at a few wikis. If your community is interested in this test, please [[phab:T403680|tell us in this task]], or [[mw:Talk:Edit check|contact the team]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Later this week, users of the &quot;{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}&quot; [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|beta feature]] will be able to use a [[w:en:Lint (software)|linting tool]] to see errors or other potential problems in wikitext in real time. See the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Linting|help page for more information]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T381577]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] When browsing a wiki (like &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;en.wikipedia.org&lt;/code&gt;), the software responds in one of two ways: a desktop page, or a redirect to a mobile version on an &quot;m&quot; domain (like &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;en.m.wikipedia.org&lt;/code&gt;). Over the next three weeks, MediaWiki will start displaying the mobile version to mobile devices directly on the standard domain, without this redirect. This change does not affect existing m-dot URLs, or the &quot;Desktop view&quot; opt-out. [[mw:Requests for comment/Mobile domain sunsetting/2025 Announcement|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T214998]
* When an edit changes the categories of a page, the changes to the category membership counts are now happening asynchronously. This improves the speed of saving edits, especially when moving many pages to or from the same category, and reduces the risk of site outages, but it means that the counts can show outdated information for a few minutes. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T365303] 
* Edits on Wikidata to qualifiers (properties and values) and references (properties and values) in a Wikidata item statement will now not add entries to the RecentChanges or Watchlist pages on all other Wikis. This is a temporary change to improve performance while other solutions are created. Wikidata's own pages remain unchanged.

* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|All wikis will be read-only]] for a few minutes on September 24. This is planned at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1758726000 15:00 UTC].

* Edits to Wikidata aliases (an alternative name for an item or a property) will now be shown in RecentChanges and Watchlist entries on other wikis less often, reducing unnecessary notifications. This will reduce the overall quantity of 'noisy' entries. Wikidata's own pages remain unchanged. [[m:Wikidata For Wikimedia Projects/Reduce change propagation noise#Phase 1: More granular Alias tracking|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401288]
* The new [https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode17.0.0/ Unicode 17.0] version has been released. The [[:c:Category:Unicode Module Datasets|datasets on Commons]] for the [[:d:Q39301585|Module:Unicode data]] have been updated. Wikipedias that do not use the Commons datasets should either update their own data or switch to the Commons datasets.
* Users of the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Enterprise|Wikimedia Enterprise]] Structured Contents endpoints can now access [https://enterprise.wikimedia.com/blog/parsed-wikipedia-tables/ Parsed Tables]. The new Parsed Tables feature extracts and represents Wikipedia tables in structured JSON. This improves machine accessibility as part of the [https://enterprise.wikimedia.com/api/structured-contents/ Structured Contents initiative].

'''Weekly highlight'''
* [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1758726000 On September 24th at 15:00 UTC], all Wikimedia sites users will experience a brief read-only period due to a scheduled [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|datacenter server switchover]]. The Wikimedia Foundation's Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team will redirect all traffic from one primary server to its backup. You can listen to the switchover using the [http://listen.hatnote.com/ &quot;Listen to Wikipedia&quot;] tool, where you will hear edits stop for a few minutes during the read-only phase, then resume. This twice-yearly datacenter server switchover ensures reliability by testing the backup datacenter, so that our sites can stay online even if the primary datacenter fails. You can [[diffblog:2025/03/12/hear-that-the-wikis-go-silent-twice-a-year/|read more about the process on the Diff blog]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* Editors of [[f:Special:Mylanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2025-09-12#Next round of Wiktionaries to receive embedded Wikifunctions calls|60 more Wiktionaries]] will soon be able to call [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Introduction|functions from Wikifunctions]] and integrate them into their pages. A function takes one or more inputs and transforms them into a desired output, like adding numbers, converting miles to meters, calculating elapsed time, or declining a word into a case. They will join the other [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2025-08-29#Wikifunctions available on 65 Wiktionaries|65 Wiktionary language editions]], which already have access to embedded Wikifunctions calls. Later this year, plans are in place to expand to more Wiktionaries and the Incubator.
* A new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic words#Technical metadata of another page|parser function]] has been added: &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{#contentmodel}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;. Template editors and admins can use it to get the localized or canonical name of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:ChangeContentModel|content model]] of a specific page. The function makes it easier to create and edit system messages, such as ''MediaWiki:editinginterface'', even when you switch types of pages, like wiki, JavaScript, CSS or JSON page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T328254]
* Adding or editing a &lt;code&gt;DISPLAYTITLE&lt;/code&gt; for an article using VisualEditor will no longer be broken. Editors who use VisualEditor mode to modify the &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{DISPLAYTITLE}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; would no longer have the literal text &quot;DISPLAYTITLE&quot; or its localized variant added to their articles. A list of pages that may have been affected and might need cleanup is documented in [[phab:P83438|this ticket]]. 
* Beta users of the Wikipedia Android app can now try the redesigned [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Android/Activity Tab Experiment|Activity tab]], which replaces the Edits tab. The new tab offers personalized insights into reading, editing, and donation activity, while simplifying navigation and making app use more engaging.

* A major software upgrade has been made to [[phab:|Phabricator]]. The update introduces performance improvements, a refreshed search interface, enhancements to Maniphest task search, updates to user profile pages and project workboards, new Herald automation features, as well as general text input, mobile experience improvements and more. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/phame/post/view/321/iterative_improvements_september_2025/]

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Community Tech team will release the new Community Wishlist extension on October 1, that will improve the way wishes will be submitted. The new extension will allow users to add tags to their wishes to better categorise them, and (in a future iteration) to filter them by status, tags and focus areas. It will also be possible to support individual wishes again, as requested by the community in many instances. The old system will be retired. There will be a brief period of downtime while the extension is deployed and wishes are migrated to the new system. You can read more about this [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist/Updates|in the latest update]] or you can consult the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CommunityRequests|current documentation on MediaWiki]].
* As announced [[diffblog:2025/09/02/better-detecting-bots-and-replacing-our-captcha/|on Diff blog]], the production trial of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Anti-abuse signals/hCaptcha|hCaptcha]] service for bot detection has begun. The trial is currently using hCaptcha to protect account creation on Chinese, Persian, Portuguese, Indonesian, Japanese, and Turkish Wikipedias, where it will replace our existing [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:ConfirmEdit#FancyCaptcha|CAPTCHA]] (FancyCaptcha). The goal with the trial is to better block bots while also improving usability and accessibility for users who encounter CAPTCHA challenges.
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents]] extension has been [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Deployment status|deployed]] to Wikimedia Commons. The extension makes it easier to organize and participate in collaborative activities, like edit-a-thons and WikiProjects, on the wikis. On Commons, anyone who is a registered user can use it as an event participant. To use it as an organizer, someone needs to have the [[c:Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Event organizers|event organizer right]].
* [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|Sub-referencing]], a new feature to re-use references with different details has been released to German Wikipedia. You can [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#test|test the feature]] on testwiki or [https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmcloud.org/wiki/Sub-referencing on betawiki] as well. Please share your thoughts on [[:m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#Templates used in sub-references|using templates in sub-references]] or [[:m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#Pilot wikis|volunteer to become a pilot wiki]].
* On wikis using the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Mentorship|Mentorship]] system, communities can now opt experienced editors out of Mentorship through [[{{#special:CommunityConfiguration/Mentorship}}]]. Within this setting, communities may define thresholds, based on edit count and account age, to decide when an editor is considered experienced enough to no longer receive Mentorship. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T403563]
* The Editing Team and the Machine Learning Team are working on a new check for newcomers: [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Tone Check|Tone check]]. Using a prediction model, this check will encourage editors to improve the tone of their edits, using artificial intelligence. We invite volunteers to review the first version of the Tone language model for the following languages: Arabic, Czech, German, Hebrew, Indonesian, Dutch, Polish, Russian, Turkish, Chinese, Farsi, Italian, Norwegian, Romanian and Latvian. Users from these wikis interested in reviewing this model are [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit_check/Tone_Check/Model_evaluation|invited to sign up at MediaWiki.org]]. The deadline to sign up is on October 3, which will be the start date of the test.
* The rollout of [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Manage blocks|multiblocks]] had the side effect that non-active block logs may have been shown on {{#special:Contributions}} and on blocked users' user and user_talk pages. This issue will be fully resolved in a few days. As part of the fix, [{{fullurl:Special:Allmessages|prefix=sp-contributions-blocked-notice}} messages prefixed with &lt;code&gt;sp-contributions-blocked-notice&lt;/code&gt;] will be removed and replaced with [{{fullurl:Special:Allmessages|prefix=blocked-notice-logextract}} those prefixed with &lt;code&gt;blocked-notice-logextract&lt;/code&gt;] in a few weeks. Please help translate the new messages and update any local overrides if needed.
* There was a bug with links added using visual editor if they included characters such as &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;[ ] |&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; after the fragment identifier (&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;#&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;). They were not encoded properly creating an incorrect link. This has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T404823]
* One new wiki has been created: a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikiquote/en}} in [[d:Q9237|Malay]] ([[q:ms:|&lt;code&gt;q:ms:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T404698]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Later this week, editors using Lua modules will be able to use the &lt;code&gt;[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#mw.title.newBatch|mw.title.newBatch]]&lt;/code&gt; function to look up the existence of up to 25 pages at once, in a way that only increases the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Parser functions#Expensive parser functions|expensive function]] count once.
* A new [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Unsupported Tools Working Group|Unsupported Tools Working Group]] has been formed as part of ongoing efforts to collectively determine technical work priorities, similar to the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council|Product &amp; Technology Advisory Council]] (PTAC). The working group will help prioritize and review requests for support of unmaintained extensions, gadgets, bots, and tools. For the first cycle, the group will be prioritizing an unsupported Wikimedia Commons tool.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#paste|Paste Check]] is a new Edit Check feature to help avoid and fight copyright violations. When editors paste text into an article, Paste Check prompts them to confirm the origin and licensing of the content. Starting Wednesday, 8 October, [[phab:T403680|22 wikis will test Paste Check]]. Paste Check will help new volunteers understand and follow the policies and guidelines necessary to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia projects.
'''Updates for editors'''
* Mobile devices will receive mobile articles directly on the standard domain (like &lt;code&gt;en.wikipedia.org&lt;/code&gt;), instead of via a redirect to an &quot;m&quot; domain (like &lt;code&gt;en.m.wikipedia.org&lt;/code&gt;). This change improves performance. This week it will be enabled on Wikipedias. The existing mobile URLs and the &quot;Desktop view&quot; opt-out remain available. [[mw:Requests for comment/Mobile domain sunsetting/2025 Announcement|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T214998]
* New [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:CirrusSearch#creationdate and lasteditdate|date filters]], &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;creationdate:&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;lasteditdate:&lt;/code&gt;, are now available in the wiki search engine. This allows users to filter search results by a page's first or last revision date. The filters support comparison operators (e.g. &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;&gt;2024&lt;/code&gt;) and relative dates (e.g. &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;today-1d&lt;/code&gt;), making it easier to find recently updated content or pages within specific age ranges. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T403593]
* [[f:|Wikifunctions]] now supports rich text in embedded calls across the 150 wikis where it's enabled. To showcase this, the team created a [[f:Z26333|Latin declination table]] that Wiktionary editors can use to automatically generate noun forms, producing clear, formatted results — see an [[f:Wikifunctions:Embedded function calls/Wiktionary tables demonstration|example output]]. If you need any help or have any feedback, please [[f:Wikifunctions:Project chat|contact the Wikifunctions Team]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T397402]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The field &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;rev_sha1&lt;/code&gt; in the revision database table is being removed in favor of &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;content_sha1&lt;/code&gt; in the content database table. See [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/cloud@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/2D2M3SP4WHR6BXXKTZ2PBLZQYR3EGQVR/ the announcement] for more information.
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web|Reader Experience team]] will roll out [[w:en:Light-on-dark color scheme|Dark Mode]] user interface on all Wikimedia sites on October 29, 2025. All anonymous users of Wikimedia sites will have the option to activate a color scheme that features light-colored text on a dark background. This is designed to provide a more comfortable reading experience, especially in low-light situations. Template authors and technical contributors are encouraged to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Accessibility for reading/Updates/2024-04|learn how to make pages ready for Dark mode]] and address any compatibility issues found in templates in their wiki before the enablement. Please contact the Web team for questions or any support on [[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Accessibility for reading#|this talk page]] before the enablement. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T395628]
* Starting on Monday, October 6, API endpoints under the &lt;code&gt;rest.php&lt;/code&gt; path will be rerouted through a new internal API Gateway. Individual wikis will be updated based on the standard release groups, with total traffic increased over time. This change is expected to be non-breaking and non-disruptive.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Last week, improvements to account security and two-factor authentication (2FA) features were enabled across all wikis. These changes include user interface improvements for [https://auth.wikimedia.org/metawiki/wiki/Special:AccountSecurity Special:AccountSecurity], the support of multiple 2FA methods via authenticator apps and portable security keys (previously users could only enable one method), and a new Recovery Codes module which facilitates fewer account lockouts due to lost two-factor apps and devices. As part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security|Account Security]] project, work is continuing through the rest of 2025 on further user experience improvements, and support for passkeys as an alternate second factor. 

'''Updates for editors'''

* Another part of the Account security project is making 2FA generally available to all users. Along with editors with advanced privileges, such as administrators and bureaucrats, 40% of editors now have access to 2FA. You can check if you have access at [https://auth.wikimedia.org/metawiki/wiki/Special:AccountSecurity Special:AccountSecurity]. Instructions for activation are on the linked page. The plan is to continue increasing availability if it is determined that the user support capabilities are able to support global usage. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T400579]
* This week, users at wikis where talk page [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Talk pages project/Usability|Usability Improvements]] are already available by default (everywhere ''except'' the 12 wikis listed in [[phab:T379264|T379264]]) will gain the ability to Thank a comment directly from the talk page it appears on. Before this change, Thanking could only be done by visiting the revision history of the talk page. You can [[diffblog:2025/10/13/revolutionizing-gratitude-a-new-era-of-thanking-comments/|learn more about this change]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T366095]
* Users who have not [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-personal-email|verified their email address]] will soon be receiving monthly Notification reminders to do so. This is because users who have verified their email can more easily recover their account. These reminders will not be sent if the user is inactive or removes the unverified email from their account.

* To optimize how user data is stored in our databases, the saved preferences of users who haven't logged in for over five years and have fewer than 100 edits will be cleared. When those users return, default settings will apply. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T406724]

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Wikipedia iOS app has launched an A/B/C test of improvements made to the tabbed browsing feature for select regions and languages. The test, named “More dynamic tabs”, explores new tab experiences and includes “Did you know” and “Because you read” article recommendations. You can [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/iOS/Tabbed Browsing (Tabs)/New Tab Experience and Recommendations Experiment|read more on the project page]].
* Autoconfirmed users on [[gitiles:operations/mediawiki-config/+/a2d2aaab9ace84280dd2f4c70a33bb69cd73850f/dblists/small.dblist|small]] and [[gitiles:operations/mediawiki-config/+/a2d2aaab9ace84280dd2f4c70a33bb69cd73850f/dblists/medium.dblist|medium wikis]] with the CampaignEvents extension can now use [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event Center/Registration|Event Registration]] without the Event Organizer right. This feature lets organizers enable registration, manage participants, and lets users register with one click instead of signing event pages.

For example, the issue of flashing colors when holding or pressing the arrow keys under the dark mode settings in Vector 2022 has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T402285]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''

* The CampaignEvents extension will be deployed to all remaining wikis during the week of 17 November 2025. The extension currently includes three features: Event Registration, Collaboration List, and Invitation List. For this rollout, Invitation List will not be enabled on Wikifunctions and MediaWiki unless requested by those communities. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Deployment status|Visit the deployment page to learn more]].
* The SwaggerUI-based REST sandbox experience is now live on all wiki projects. The sandbox can be accessed through the [[{{#special:RestSandbox}}]] page. Please report any issues to the MediaWiki Interfaces team board, or join the discussion on the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Interfaces Team/Feature Feedback/REST Sandbox|project launch]] page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/board/6931/]
* Transform endpoints with a trailing slash path in the MediaWiki REST API are now marked as deprecated. They will remain functional during this time, but removal is expected by the end of January 2026. All API users currently calling them are encouraged to transition to the non-trailing slash versions. Both endpoint variations can be found and tested using the [https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?api=mw-extra&amp;title=Special%3ARestSandbox REST Sandbox]. See the [[mw:API/Deprecation|MediaWiki REST API Deprecation]] page for more detailed information about the API deprecation policies and procedures.
* A dedicated [[mw:API:REST API/Changelog|changelog now exists for the MediaWiki REST API]]. The changelog provides an overview of these changes, making it easier for developers to keep track of improvements and iterations. Announcements will also continue to flow through the standard communication channels, including Tech News and email distribution lists, but can now be more easily referenced from a central location. If you have feedback about the style, structure, or content of this changelog, please [[mw:API talk:REST API/Changelog|join the discussion]].
* Administrators can delete the tracking category which was previously added by the JsonConfig extension, as it is no longer used. See the categories linked from [[d:Q130635582#sitelinks-wikipedia|Q130635582]]. It is OK if there are still pages listed in the category as that is just a caching issue, and they will be automatically cleared out the next time each page is edited.

'''Updates for editors'''
* Administrators will now find that [[{{#special:MergeHistory}}]] is now significantly more flexible about what it can merge. It can now merge sections taken from the middle of the history of the source (rather than only the start) and insert revisions anywhere in the history of the destination page (rather than only the start). [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T382958]
* For users with &quot;{{int:discussiontools-preference-autotopicsub}}&quot; [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing|enabled in their preferences]], starting a new topic or adding a reply to an existing topic will now subscribe them to replies to that topic. Previously, this would only happen if the DiscussionTools &quot;{{int:Skin-action-addsection}}&quot; or &quot;{{int:Discussiontools-replybutton}}&quot; widgets were used. When DiscussionTools was originally launched existing accounts were not opted in to automatic topic subscriptions, so this change should primarily affect newer accounts and users who have deliberately changed their preferences since that time. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T290778]
* Scribunto modules can now be used to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#SVG library|generate SVG images]]. This can be used to build charts, graphics and other visualizations dynamically through Lua, reducing the need to compose them externally and upload them as files. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T405861]
* Wikimedia sites now provide all anonymous users with the option to enable a dark mode color scheme, featuring light-colored text on a dark background. This enhancement aims to deliver a more enjoyable reading experience, especially in dimly lit environments.  [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T395628]
* Users with large watchlists have long faced timeouts when editing [[Special:EditWatchlist|Special:EditWatchlist]]. The page now loads entries in smaller sections instead of all at once due to a paging update, allowing everyone to edit their watchlists smoothly. As part of the database update, sorting by expiry has been removed because it was over 100× slower than sorting by title. A [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist/W454 community wish] has been created to explore alternative ways to restore sort-by-expiry.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Since 2019 the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia URL Shortener|Wikimedia URL Shortener]] at https://w.wiki is available for all Wikimedia wikis to create short links to articles, permalinks, diffs, etc. It is available in the sidebar as &quot;Get shortened URL&quot;. There are 30 wikis that also install an older &quot;ShortUrl&quot; extension. The old extension will soon be removed. This means &lt;code&gt;/s/&lt;/code&gt; URLs will not be advertised under article titles via HTML &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;class=&quot;title-shortlink&quot;&lt;/code&gt;. The &lt;code&gt;/s/&lt;/code&gt; URLs will keep working. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T107188]

'''In depth'''
* In 2025, the Wikimedia Foundation reported that AI systems and search engines increasingly use Wikipedia content without driving users to the site, contributing to an 8% drop in human pageviews compared to 2024. After detecting bots disguised as humans, Wikimedia updated its traffic data to reflect this shift.

'''Updates for editors'''
[[File:Talk pages default look (April 2023).jpg|thumb|alt=Screenshot of the visual improvements made on talk pages|Example of a talk page with the new design, in French.]]
* Starting November 12, users will see a change in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Talk pages project/Feature summary#Usability improvements|appearance of talk pages]] on [[Phab:T379264|some Wikipedias]]. Almost [[phab:T392121|all wikis]] have received this design change; [[phab:T409297|English Wikipedia]] will get these changes later. You can read more [[diffblog:2024/05/02/making-talk-pages-better-for-everyone/|on ''Diff'']]. Users can opt out of these changes [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing|in their user preferences]] in &quot;{{int:discussiontools-preference-visualenhancements}}&quot;. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T379264]
* MediaWiki can now display a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Protection indicators|page indicator]] automatically while a page is protected. This feature is disabled by default. It can be enabled by [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Requesting wiki configuration changes|community request]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T12347]
* Using the &quot;{{int:showpreview}}&quot; or &quot;{{int:showdiff}}&quot; buttons in the wikitext editor will now carry over certain URL parameters like '[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Parameters to index.php#useskin|useskin]]', '[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Parameters to index.php#uselang|uselang]]' and '[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Section#Editing sections|section]]'. This update also fixes an issue where, if the browser crashed while previewing an edit to a single section, saving this edit could overwrite the entire page with just that section’s content. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T62744][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T24029][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T155097]
* Wikivoyage wikis can use [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:Kartographer#Markers and counters|colored map markers in the article text]]. The text of these markers will now be shown in contrasting black or white color, instead of always being white. Local workarounds for the problem can be removed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T369454]
* The Activity tab in the Wikipedia Android app is now available for all users. The new tab offers personalized insights into reading, editing, and donation activity, while simplifying navigation and making app use more engaging. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Apps/Team/Android/Activity_Tab_Experiment]
* The Reader Growth team is launching an experiment called &quot;Image browsing&quot; to test how to make it easier for readers to browse and discover images on Wikipedia articles. This experiment, a mobile-only A/B test, will go live on English Wikipedia in the week of November 17 and will run for four weeks, affecting 0.05% of users on English wiki. The test launched on November 3 on Arabic, Chinese, French, Indonesian, and Vietnamese wikis, affecting up to 10% of users on those wikis. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Readers/Reader_Growth/WE3.1.3_Image_Browsing]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:27}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:27|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example the inability to lock accounts on mobile sites has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T256185]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* [[wikitech:Help talk:Toolforge/Toolforge standards committee#November 2025 committee nominations|Nominations are open on Wikitech]] for new [[wikitech:Help:Toolforge/Toolforge standards committee|Toolforge standards committee]] members. The committee oversees the Toolforge [[wikitech:Help:Toolforge/Right to fork policy|Right to fork policy]] and [[wikitech:Help:Toolforge/Abandoned tool policy|Abandoned tool policy]] among other duties. Nominations will remain open through 2025-11-28.
* The [[w:JSON Web Token#Standard fields|JWT issuer field]] in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/OAuth/For Developers#OAuth 2|OAuth 2 access tokens]] for [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Unified login|SUL wikis]] has been changed to &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;https://meta.wikimedia.org&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;. Old access tokens will still work. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T399199]
* The [[w:JSON Web Token#Standard fields|JWT subject field]] in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/OAuth/For Developers#OAuth 2|OAuth 2 access tokens]] will soon change from &lt;code&gt;&lt;user id&gt;&lt;/code&gt; to &lt;code dir=ltr style=&quot;white-space:nowrap&quot;&gt;mw:&lt;identity type&gt;:&lt;user id&gt;&lt;/code&gt;, where &lt;code&gt;&lt;identity type&gt;&lt;/code&gt; is typically &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;CentralAuth:&lt;/code&gt;&lt;!-- not a typo --&gt; (for [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Unified login|SUL wikis]]) or &lt;code dir=ltr style=&quot;white-space:nowrap&quot;&gt;local:&lt;wiki id&gt;&lt;/code&gt; (for other wikis). This is to avoid conflicts between different user ID types, and to make OAuth 2 access tokens and the &lt;code&gt;sessionJwt&lt;/code&gt; cookie more similar. Old access tokens will still work. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T399199]
* MediaWiki's block messages ([[MediaWiki:Blockedtext|blockedtext]], [[MediaWiki:Blockedtext-partial|blockedtext-partial]], [[MediaWiki:Autoblockedtext|autoblockedtext]], [[MediaWiki:Systemblockedtext|systemblockedtext]], [[MediaWiki:Blockedtext-tempuser|blockedtext-tempuser]], [[MediaWiki:Autoblockedtext-tempuser|autoblockedtext-tempuser]]) now support additional parameters indicating whether the user is blocked from editing their own user talk page &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;$9&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; or emailing other users &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;$&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;10&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T285612]
* A &lt;code&gt;REL1_45&lt;/code&gt; branch for MediaWiki core and each of the extensions and skins in Wikimedia git has been created. This is the first step in the release process for MediaWiki 1.45.0, scheduled for late November 2025. If you are working on a critical bug fix or working on a new feature, you may need to take note of this change. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/ZUY7TY3Z6XPZWZVAZV63OPO5OW52Q6GE/]
* The process for generating CirrusSearch dumps has been updated due to slowing performance. If you encounter any issues migrating to the replacement dumps, please contact the Search Platform Team for support.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience|Reader Experience team]] is experimenting with [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4_Reading lists|reading lists on mobile web]], allowing logged-in readers with no edits to save private lists of articles for later. The experiment is running on Arabic, Chinese, French, Indonesian, and Vietnamese Wikipedias since the week of 10 November, and will begin on English Wikipedia the week of 17 November.
* Users who can’t receive their email verification code during login can now get help by submitting a form on a new special page. This update is part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security|Account Security]] initiative. If your account has an email address, please make sure you still have access to it. When logging in from a new device or location without 2FA, you may be asked to enter a 6-digit code sent by email to finish logging in. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security#Why are you requiring me to enter a code from my email to log in? Can I opt out of this?|Learn more]].
* One new wiki has been created: a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikisource}} in [[d:Q13324|Minangkabau]] ([[s:min:|&lt;code&gt;s:min:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T408317]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* As part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification|Parser Unification]] project, the Content Transform Team rolled out Parsoid as the default parser to many low-traffic Wikipedias and is preparing the next step to high traffic ones. This message is an invitation for you to opt-in to Parsoid, as described in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:ParserMigration|Extension:ParserMigration]] documentation, and identify any issues you might encounter with your own workflow using bots, gadgets, or user scripts. Please, let us know through the ''&quot;Report Visual Bug&quot;'' link in the Tools sidebar or create a phab ticket and tag the [[phab:project/view/5846|Content Transform Team in Phabricator]].
* Unsupported Tools: Several issues with [[:c:Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Video2commons|Video2Commons]] have been fixed, including filename-related upload failures, black-video imports, and retry handling. AV1 support has also been added. Ongoing work focuses on backend stability, ffmpeg errors, subtitle imports, metadata handling, and playlist uploads. To track specific tasks, check the [[phab:tag/video2commons/|Phabricator board]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* Last week, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Search Platform|Wikimedia Search Team]] recreated the &quot;DWIM&quot; (Do What I Mean) gadget functionality server-side, for Russian and Hebrew Wikipedias. This feature adds cross-keyboard suggestions to the standard search-box suggestions. For example, searching for ''&lt;span lang=&quot;und&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;cxfcnmt&lt;/span&gt;'' on Russian Wikipedia will now add suggestions for ''&lt;span lang=&quot;ru&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;счастье&lt;/span&gt;'' (&quot;happiness&quot;) that the user probably intended. They plan to enable this feature for other Russian and Hebrew wikis this week. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T408734]
* Later this week, users of the &quot;{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}&quot; [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|beta feature]] will have syntax highlighting available in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:DiscussionTools|DiscussionTools]]. This requires that the &quot;{{int:discussiontools-preference-sourcemodetoolbar}}&quot; preference be set. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T407918]
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents|Campaign events extension]] – the set of tools for coordinating events and other on-wiki collaborations has now been deployed to all Wikimedia wikis. A new feature known as [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Collaborative contributions|Collaborative contribution]] to help organizers and participants see the impact of activities has also been added. Join the upcoming [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event:Connection learning session 3|learning session]] to see the new feature in action and share your feedback.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
*  Users of Wikimedia API can join a usability study to help validate the new design of Wikimedia REST API sandboxes. Interested participants should fill the [https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/487662 recruitment survey]. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/IREJRRWTZTGCYWQHDMSNJFTQAEPOOAE3/]
* The MediaWiki Interfaces team is deprecating XSLT stylesheets within the Action API. Support for &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;format=xml'''&amp;xlst={stylesheet}'''&lt;/code&gt; will be removed from Wikimedia projects by the end of November, 2025. In addition, it will soon be disabled by default in MediaWiki release versions: v1.43 (LTS), v1.44, and v1.45. Support for XSLT stylesheets will be fully removed from MediaWiki v1.46 (expected to release between April and May 2026). [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/5AX7UWAVVUNUSBOIRHMNOKWOZ5EZI3JX/]
* The WDQS legacy endpoint ([https://query-legacy-full.wikidata.org/ query-legacy-full.wikidata.org]) will be decommissioned at the end of December 2025, and finally closed down on 7th January 2026. After this date, users should expect requests to query.wikidata.org that require the full graph to fail or return invalid results if they are not rewritten to use SPARQL federation. The team encourages users to ensure that tools and workflows use the supported WDQS endpoints (&lt;span dir=ltr&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;https://query.wikidata.org/&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/span&gt; - Main graph or &lt;span dir=ltr&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;https://query-scholarly.wikidata.org/&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/span&gt; - Scholarly graph). For support with migrating use cases, please review the [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:Data_access|Data Access]] and [[d:Wikidata:Request_a_query|Request a Query]] pages for details and assistance on alternative access methods.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Wikipedia Year in Review 2025 will be available on December 2 for users of iOS and Android Wikipedia apps, featuring new personalized insights, updated reading highlights, and refreshed designs. Learn more on the review's [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Wikipedia Year in Review/Updates|project page]].
* The Growth team is working on improving the text and presentation of the Verification Email sent to new users to make them more welcoming, useful and informative. Some new text have been drafted for A/B testing and you can help by translating them. See [[phab:T396155|Phabricator]].
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Tools/Add a link|Add a link]] will now be deployed at Japanese, Urdu and Chinese Wikipedias on December 2. Add a link is based on a prediction model that suggests links to be added to articles. While this feature has already been available on most Wikipedias, the prediction model could not support certain languages. A new model has now been developed to handle these languages, and it will be gradually rolled out to other Wikipedias over time. If you would like to know more, please contact [[mw:user:Trizek (WMF)|Trizek (WMF)]].

'''In depth'''
* The Wikimedia Foundation is in the early stages of exploring approaches to '''Article guidance'''. The initiative aims to identify interventions that could help new editors easily understand and apply existing Wikipedia practices and policies when creating an article. The project is in the exploration and early experimental design phase. All community members are encouraged to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance|learn more]] about the project, and share their thoughts on [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Article guidance|the talk page]].

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Anybody who wishes to secure their user account can now use [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Two-factor authentication|two-factor authentication]] (2FA). This is available to all registered users of all Wikimedia projects. This is part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security|Account Security]] initiative. Later, 2FA will be required for all users who can take security- or privacy-sensitive actions.

'''Updates for editors'''
* Following last week's deployments, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Tools/Add a link|Add a link]] feature, which allows editors to add suggested links during editing, will be available to an additional [[Phab:T410469|33 Wikipedias]] starting on 9 December. This expansion is possible thanks to the new prediction model that now supports all languages, including those that were previously not covered. While the feature has been available on most Wikipedias for some time, this rollout brings us closer to using the improved model everywhere. If you have any questions or would like more details please contact [[mw:user:Trizek (WMF)|Trizek (WMF)]].
* Last week, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Search Platform|Search Platform team]] added [[w:en:Transliteration|transliterated]] as-you-type search suggestions to Georgian wikis. If there are only a few regular search suggestions, then queries in Latin or Cyrillic script [[phab:T127003|are now rewritten into Georgian script]] to look for more matches. For example, searching for either &lt;bdi lang=&quot;ka-Latn&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;''bedniereba''&lt;/bdi&gt; or &lt;bdi lang=&quot;ka-Cyrl&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;''бедниереба''&lt;/bdi&gt; will now suggest the existing article about &lt;bdi lang=&quot;ka&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;ბედნიერება&lt;/bdi&gt; (&quot;happiness&quot;). You can recommend other languages where transliterated suggestions would be useful [[phab:T375215|on Phabricator]] for future development.
* Later this week, a controlled experiment will begin for editors on the 100 largest Wikipedias who are editing a section in the mobile web visual editor. 50% of these editors will notice a new &quot;Edit full page&quot; button that will enable them to expand their editing session to the whole page. This feature is intended to make it easier for people on mobile web to edit any article section, regardless of which section-edit icon they tapped to begin. The experiment will last ~4 weeks. You can find [[phab:T409112|more details]] about the project.
* Later this week, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth|Reader Growth team]] will launch a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/WE3.1.14 Expanded Mobile Sections|mobile web experiment]] to expand all article sections by default (currently they are collapsed by default) and pin the section header the user is currently reading to the top of the page. The experiment will affect 10% of users on Arabic, Chinese, French, Indonesian, and Vietnamese Wikipedias. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T409485]
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Wikipedia Year in Review/2025 Year in Review|Wikipedia Year in Review 2025]], a feature in the Wikipedia mobile apps (iOS and Android) that provides users with a personalised summary of their engagement with Wikipedia over the year, is now available on the iOS and Android apps. This edition includes expanded personalised insights, improved reading highlights, new donor messaging, and updated designs. Open the app to view your Year in Review and explore your reading journey from 2025.
* A recent software bug caused edits made with VisualEditor to make unintended changes to wikitext, including removing whitespace and replacing spaces with underscores in wikilinks inside citations. This was partially fixed last week, and further fixes are in progress. Editors who used VisualEditor between November 28 and December 2 should review their edits for unexpected modifications.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Starting this week, users of the &quot;{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}&quot; [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|beta feature]] will have [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] as the editor for Lua, JavaScript, CSS, JSON and Vue content models, instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]]. With this, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Linting|linters]] will be upgraded. This is part of a larger effort to eventually replace CodeEditor and provide a consistent code editing experience. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373711]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* To improve database and site performance, external links to Wikimedia projects will no longer be stored in the database.

* Interface elements such as diffs and categories generated by MediaWiki used to have the attribute &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;data-mw=&quot;interface&quot;&lt;/code&gt; to distinguish from wiki content. The attribute has been replaced with &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;data-mw-interface=&quot;&quot;&lt;/code&gt;, to avoid potential conflicts with other &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;data-mw&lt;/code&gt; attributes, which are generated by Parsoid.

Additionally, the pagination on [[Special:Search|Search]] will be updated too, as a part of the work on the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist/W186|Revamp pagination / page navigation]] wish. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T411596]
* [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|The Global Watchlist]] is a MediaWiki [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] that lets you see your watchlists from different wikis on the same page. It was recently updated to look more like the regular [[Special:Watchlist|Watchlist]], such as preparing it for temporary accounts in IP masking (including rerouting user links to contributions pages), making page titles bold, and opening links in edit summaries and tags in new browser tabs.

* The tray shown on [[Special:Diff|Special:Diff]] in mobile view has been redesigned.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T402297] 
* [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|The Global Watchlist]] lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on one page. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] continues to improve — it now automatically determines the text direction (ensuring correct display of sites with unusual domain names) and shows detailed descriptions for log actions. Later this week, a new permanent link for page creations and CSS classes for each entry element will be added.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* As mentioned in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2025/44|October 2025 deprecation announcement]], MediaWiki Interfaces team will begin sunsetting all transform endpoints containing a trailing slash from the MediaWiki REST API the week of January 26. Changes are expected to roll out to all wikis on or before January 30th. All API users currently calling them are encouraged to transition to the non-trailing slash versions. Both endpoint variations can be found, compared, and tested using the [https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RestSandbox REST Sandbox]. If you have questions or encounter any problems, please file a ticket in Phabricator to the [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/6931/ #MW-Interfaces-Team board].
* Interactive reference documentation for the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia REST API|Wikimedia REST API]] has moved. Requests to API docs previously hosted through [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/RESTBase|RESTBase]] (e.g.: &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/&lt;/code&gt;) are now redirected to the [[w:en:Special:RestSandbox|REST Sandbox]].
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata Platform|WMF Wikidata Platform team]] (WDP) has published its [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:Wikidata Platform team/Newsletter|January 2026 newsletter]]. It includes updates on the legacy full-graph endpoint decommissioning, the User-Agent policy change, the monthly Blazegraph migration office hours, and efforts to reduce regressions caused by the legacy endpoint shutdown.

* Wikimedia Foundation invites comments on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Year1 Reflections and Proposed Way Forward 2026 Update|proposed future]] of the [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council|Product and Technology Advisory Council]] until 28 February.
* All users with registered accounts can now use passkeys for [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Two-factor authentication|two-factor authentication]] (2FA). Passkeys are a simple way to log in without using a second device. They verify the user's identity using a fingerprint, face scan, or a PIN code. To set up a passkey, first set up a regular 2FA method. Currently, to log in with a passkey, users must also use a password. Later this quarter, passwordless login will allow users to log in with a single click and a passkey. Users with advanced rights will also be required to have 2FA enabled. This is part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security|Account Security]] project.
* Unregistered contributors on blocked IPs or blocked IP ranges can now interact on-wiki to appeal a block by creating a temporary account to appeal a block on the user talk page, unless the &quot;prevent this user from editing their own talk page&quot; is enabled. This solves the problem of logged-out users unable to use the default unblock process via user talk page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T398673]

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T332385]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* A new AbuseFilter variable, &lt;code&gt;account_type&lt;/code&gt;, has been added to provide a reliable way to determine the account type being created in the &lt;code&gt;createaccount&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;autocreateaccount&lt;/code&gt; actions. As part of this change, the variable &lt;code&gt;accountname&lt;/code&gt; has been renamed to &lt;code&gt;account_name&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code&gt;accountname&lt;/code&gt; is now deprecated. Edit filter managers should update any filters that use hardcoded account type checks or the deprecated variable. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414049]
* Image thumbnails that are requested in non-standard sizes, and using non-standard methods such as direct requests to &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;upload.wikimedia.org/…&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; will stop working in the near future. This change is to prevent ongoing external abuse by web-scrapers and bots. Some users with custom CSS/JS, Interface Admins who can fix gadgets and local skins, and Tool-authors, will need to update their code to use standard thumbnail sizes. [[phab:T414805|Details, search-links, and examples of how to fix them, are available in the task]].

* [[File:Maki-gift-15.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] Logged-in contributors who manage large or complex watchlists can now organise and filter watched pages in ways that improve their workflows with the new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Watchlist labels|Watchlist labels]] feature. By adding custom labels (for example: pages you created, pages being monitored for vandalism, or discussion pages) users can more quickly identify what needs attention, reduce cognitive load, and respond more efficiently. This improves watchlist usability, especially for highly active editors.
* A new feature available on [[Special:Contributions|Special:Contributions]] shows [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] that are likely operated by the same person, and so makes patrolling less time-consuming. Upon checking contributions of a temporary account, users with access to temporary account IP addresses can now see a view of contributions from the related temporary accounts. The feature looks up all the IPs associated with a given temporary account within the data retention period and shows all the contributions of all temporary accounts that have used these IPs. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts#February 2026: Improvements to the patroller tooling|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415674] 
* When editors preview a wikitext edit, the reminder box that they are only seeing a preview (which is shown at the top), now has a grey/neutral background instead of a yellow/warning background. This makes it easier to distinguish preview notes from actual warnings (for example, edit conflicts or problematic redirect targets), which will now be shown in separate warning or error boxes. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414742]
* The [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|Global Watchlist]] lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on one page. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] continues to improve — it now properly supports more than one Wikibase site, for example both [[d:|Wikidata]] and [[testwikidata:|testwikidata]]. In addition, issues regarding text direction have been fixed for users who prefer Wikidata or other Wikibase sites in right-to-left (RTL) languages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415440][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415458]
* The automatic &quot;magic links&quot; for ISBN, RFC, and PMID numbers have been [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic links|deprecated in wikitext since 2021]] due to inflexibility and difficulties with localization. Several wikis have successfully replaced RFC and PMID magic links with equivalent external links, but a template was often required to replace the functionality of the ISBN magic link. There is now a new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic words#isbn|built-in parser function]] &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{#isbn}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; available to replace the basic functionality of the ISBN magic link. This makes it easier for wikis who wish to migrate off of the deprecated magic link functionality to do so. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T145604]
* Two new wikis have been created: 
** a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikipedia}} in [[d:Q35401|Jju]] ([[w:kaj:|&lt;code&gt;w:kaj:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413283]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* A new global user group has been created: [[{{int:grouppage-local-bot}}|{{int:group-local-bot}}]]. It will be used internally by the software to allow community bots to bypass rate limits that are applied to abusive [[w:en:Web scraping|web scrapers]]. Accounts that are approved as bots on at least one Wikimedia wiki will be automatically added to this group. It will not change what user permissions the bot has. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415588]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.46/wmf.15|MediaWiki]]

'''Meetings and events'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference Spring 2026|MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference, Spring 2026]] will be held March 25–27 in Salt Lake City, USA. This event is organized by and for the third-party MediaWiki community. You can propose sessions and register to attend.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Site Reliability Engineering|SRE Team]] will be performing a cleanup of Wikimedia's [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Etherpad|Etherpad]] instance, the web-based editor for real-time collaborative document editing. All pads will be permanently deleted after 30 April, 2026 – if there are still migration projects in progress at that point the team can revisit the date on a case by case basis. Please create local backups of any content you wish to keep, as deleted data cannot be recovered. This cleanup helps reduce database size and minimize infrastructure footprint. Etherpad will continue to support real-time collaboration, but long-term storage should not be expected. Additional cleanups may occur in the future without prior notice. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415237]

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Information Retrieval team will be launching an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Information Retrieval/Phase 1|Android mobile app experiment]] that tests hybrid search capabilities which can handle both semantic and keyword queries. The improvement of on-platform search will enable readers to find what they’re looking for directly on Wikipedia more easily. The experiment will first be launched on Greek Wikipedia in late February, followed by English, French, and Portuguese in March. [https://diff.wikimedia.org/2026/01/08/semantic-search-making-it-easier-to-find-the-information-readers-want/ Read more] on Diff blog. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Readers/Information_Retrieval]
* The Reader Growth team will run [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/WE3.10.2 Mobile Table of Contents|an experiment]] for mobile web users, that adds a table of contents and automatically expands all article sections, to learn more about navigation issues they face. The test will be available on Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Indonesian, and Vietnamese Wikipedias.
* Previously, site notices ([[{{ns:8}}:Sitenotice]] and [[{{ns:8}}:Anonnotice]]) would only render on the desktop site. Now, they will render on all platforms. Users on mobile web will now see these notices and be informed. Site administrators should be prepared to test and fix notices on mobile devices to avoid interference with articles. To opt out, interface admins can add &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;#siteNotice { display: none; }&lt;/code&gt; to [[{{ns:8}}:Minerva.css]].

Previously, clicking hide in the active filters caused the &quot;view new changes since…&quot; button to disappear, though it should have remained visible. The button now behaves as expected. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T406339]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* New documentation is now available to help editors debug on-site search features. It supports troubleshooting when pages do not appear in results, when ranking seems unexpected, and when you need to inspect what content is being indexed, helping make search behavior easier to understand and analyze. [[mw:Help:CirrusSearch/Debug|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T411169]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Reference Check|Reference Check]] has been deployed to English Wikipedia, completing its rollout across all Wikipedias. The feature prompts newcomers to add a citation before publishing new content, helping reduce common citation-related reverts and improve verifiability. In A/B testing, the impact was substantial: newcomers shown Reference Check were approximately 2.2 times more likely to include a reference on desktop and about 17.5 times more likely on mobile web. [https://analytics.wikimedia.org/published/reports/editing/reference_check_ab_test_report_final_2025.html]
'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:InterwikiSorting|InterwikiSorting extension]], which allowed for the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Interwiki sorting order|sorting of interwiki links]], has been undeployed from Wikipedia. As a result, editors who had enabled interwiki link sorting in non-compact mode (full list format) will now see links reordered. The links moving forward will be listed in the alphabetical order of language code. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T253764]
* Later this week, people who are editing a page-section using the mobile visual editor, will notice a new &quot;Edit full page&quot; button. When tapped, you will be able to edit the entire article. This helps when the change you want to make is outside the section you initially opened. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T387175][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T409112]
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience|The Reader Experience team]] is inviting editors to assess whether dark mode should still be considered &quot;beta&quot; on their wiki, based on their experience of how well it functions on desktop and mobile. If the feature is deemed mature, editors can update the interface messages in &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;MediaWiki:skin-theme-description&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;MediaWiki:Vector-night-mode-beta-tag&lt;/code&gt; to indicate that dark mode is ready and no longer considered beta.
* The improved [[mw:Wikimedia_Apps/Team/iOS/Activity_Tab|Activity tab]] which displays user-insights is now available to all users of the Wikipedia iOS app (version 7.9.0 and later). Following earlier A/B testing that showed higher account creation among users with access to the feature, it has been rolled out to 100% of users along with some updates. The Activity tab now shows your edited articles in the timeline, offers editing impact insights like contribution counts and article view trends, and customization options to improve in-app experience for users.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415303]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|Global Watchlist]] lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on one page. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] that makes this possible continues to improve. The latest upgrade is the inclusion of a [[mw:Extension:GlobalWatchlist#hook|new hook]], &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;ext.globalwatchlist.rebuild&lt;/code&gt;, which fires after each watchlist rebuild. This allows you to run gadgets and user scripts for the Special page. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T275159]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Wikipedia 25 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 25/Easter egg experiments|Birthday mode]] is now live on Betawi, Breton, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English, French, Gorontalo, Indonesian, Italian, Luxembourgish, Madurese, Sicilian, Spanish, Thai, and Vietnamese Wikipedias! This limited-time campaign feature celebrates 25 years of Wikipedia with a birthday mascot, Baby Globe. When turned on, Baby Globe is shown on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 25/Easter egg experiments/article configuration|~2,500 articles]], waiting to be discovered by readers. Communities can choose to turn Birthday mode on by getting consensus from their community and asking an admin to enable the feature and customize it via [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 25/Easter egg experiments#Community Configuration Demo|community configuration]] on the local wiki.

'''Updates for editors'''
* [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|Sub-referencing]], a new feature to re-use references with different details has been released to Swedish Wikipedia, Polish Wikipedia and [[:phab:T418209|a couple of other wikis]]. You can [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#test|try the feature]] on these projects or on testwiki and [https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmcloud.org/wiki/Sub-referencing betawiki]. Learnings from the first pilot wiki German Wikipedia have been [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing/Learnings|published in a report]]. Reach out to the Wikimedia Deutschland team if you are [[:m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#Pilot wikis|interested in becoming a pilot wiki]].
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#Paste check|Paste Check]] will become available at all Wikipedias this week. The feature prompts newcomers who are pasting text they are not likely to have written into VisualEditor to consider whether doing so risks a copyright violation. Paste Check [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Tags|tags]] all edits where it is shown for potential review. Local administrators can configure various aspects of the feature via [[{{#special:EditChecks}}]]. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Paste Check#A/B Experiment|Research]] across 22 wikis found that Paste Check resulted in an 18% decrease in relative reverted-edits compared to the control group. Translators can [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special%3ATranslate&amp;group=ext-visualeditor-ve-mw-editcheck&amp;filter=&amp;optional=1&amp;action=translate help to localize] this and related features.
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience|Reader Experience team]] will be standardizing the user menu in the top right for all mobile users so that it is closer to the desktop experience. Currently this user menu is only visible to users with Advanced Mobile Controls (AMC) turned on. The only change is that a couple buttons previously in the left-side menu will move to the top right for users who do not have AMC turned on. This change is expected to go out March 9 and seeks to improve the user interface. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413912]
* Starting in the week of March 2, the emails sent out when an email address was added, removed, or changed for an account will switch to a substantially nicer and clearer HTML email from the prior plaintext one. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T410807]
* Notifications are currently limited to 2,000 historic entries per user, and extend back to 2013 when the feature was released. This is going to be changed to only store Notifications from the last 5 years, but up to 10,000 of them. This will help with long-term infrastructure health and help to prevent more recent notifications from disappearing too soon. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383948]
* The [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|Global Watchlist]] which lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on a single page continues to see improvements. The latest update improves label usage experience. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] now allows activating the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Language#Fallback languages|language fallback system]] for Wikidata items without labels in the viewed language, and showing those labels in the user’s preferred Wikidata language if no &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;uselang=&lt;/code&gt; URL parameter is provided. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373686][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T416111]
* The Wikipedia Android team has started a beta test of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Information Retrieval/Phase 1|hybrid search]] on Greek Wikipedia. Hybrid search capabilities can handle both semantic and keyword queries enabling readers to find what they’re looking for directly on Wikipedia more easily.
* For security reasons, members of certain user groups are [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Mandatory two-factor authentication for users with some extended rights|required to have two-factor authentication]] (2FA) enabled. Currently, 2FA is required to use the group, but not to be a member of it. Given that this model still has some vulnerabilities, the situation will [[phab:T418580|gradually change in March]]. Members of these groups will be unable to disable last 2FA method on their account, and it will be impossible to add users without 2FA to these groups. Users will still be able to add new authentication methods or remove them, as long as at least one method is continuously enabled. In the second half of March, users without 2FA will be removed from these groups. This applies to: CentralNotice administrators, checkusers, interface administrators, suppressors, Wikidata staff, Wikifunctions staff, WMF Office IT and WMF Trust &amp; Safety. Nothing will change for other users. See the linked task for deployment schedule. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418580]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* To help ensure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]], over the next month the Wikimedia Foundation will implement global API rate limits across our APIs. In early March, stricter limits will be applied to unidentified requests from outside Toolforge/WMCS and API requests that are made from web browsers. In April, higher limits will be applied to identified traffic. These limits are intentionally set as high as possible to minimise impact on the community. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits]].
* The Wikidata Query Service Linked Data Fragment (LDF) endpoint will be decommissioned in February. This endpoint served limited traffic, which was successfully migrated to other data access methods that were better suited to support existing use cases. The hardware used to support the LDF endpoint will be reallocated to support the ongoing backend migration efforts. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415696]
* The new Parsoid parser [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification/Updates|continues to be deployed to additional wikis]], improving platform sustainability and making it easier to introduce new reading and editing features. Parsoid is now the default parser on 488 WMF wikis (268 Wikipedias), now covering more than 10% of all Wikipedia page views.
* The process and criteria for [[Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Enterprise#Access|requesting exceptional access]] to the high volume feed of the ''Wikimedia Enterprise'' APIs (at no cost for mission-aligned usecases), [[m:Talk:Wikimedia Enterprise#Exceptional access criteria|have now been published]]. This is to provide more thorough and clearer documentation for users.
* [https://techblog.wikimedia.org/ Tech Blog], the blog dedicated to the Wikimedia technical community [https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2026/02/24/a-tech-blog-diff/ will be migrating] to [[diffblog:|Diff]], the community news and event blog. The migration should be complete in April 2026, after which new posts will be accepted for publishing. Readers will be able to access posts – old and new – on the landing page at https://diff.wikimedia.org/techblog.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|All wikis will be read-only]] for a few minutes on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1774450800 15:00 UTC]. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, [[wikitech:Deployments/Yearly calendar|which happen twice a year]]. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies.
* Last week, all wikis had 2 hours of read-only time, and extended unavailability for user-scripts and gadgets. This was due to a security incident which has since been resolved. Work is ongoing to prevent re-occurrences. For current information please see the [[m:Steward's noticeboard#Statement on Meta about today's user script security incident|post on the Stewards' noticeboard]] ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation/Product and Technology/Product Safety and Integrity/March 2026 User Script Incident|translations]]).

'''Updates for editors'''
* Users facing multiple blocks on mobile will now see the reasons for each block separately, instead of a generic message. This helps them understand why they are blocked and what steps they can take to resolve the issue. For example, users affected for using common VPNs (such as [[Special:MyLanguage/Apple iCloud Private Relay|iCloud Private Relay]]) will receive clearer guidance on what they need to do to start editing again. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T357118]
* Later this week, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Suggestion Mode|Suggestion Mode]] will become available as a beta feature within the visual editor at all Wikipedias. This feature proactively suggests various types of actions that people can consider taking to improve Wikipedia articles, and learn about related guidelines. The feature is locally configurable, and can also be locally expanded with custom Suggestions. Current settings can be seen at [[Special:EditChecks]] and there are [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion mode#For administrators %E2%80%93 local customization|instructions for how administrators can customize]] the links to point to local guidelines. The feature is connected to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check|Edit check]] which suggests improvements while someone is writing new content. In the future, the Editing team plans to evaluate the feature's impact with newcomers through a controlled experiment. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T404600]

* API rate limiting update: To help ensure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]], global API rate limits will be applied this week to requests without a compliant User-Agent that originate from outside Toolforge/WMCS and to unauthenticated requests made from web browsers. Higher limits will be applied to identified traffic in April. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits]].
* The new GraphQL API has been released. The API was developed as a flexible alternative to select features of the Wikidata Query Service (WDQS), to improve developer experience and foster adaptability, and efficient data access. Try it out and [[d:Wikidata:Wikibase GraphQL#Feedback and development|give feedback]]. You can also [https://greatquestion.co/wikimediadeutschland/GraphQLAPI/apply sign up for usability tests].
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Unsupported Tools Working Group|PTAC Unsupported Tools Working Group]] continued improvements to [[commons:Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Video2commons#|Video2Commons]] in February, with fixes addressing authentication errors, large-file handling, task queue visibility, and clearer upload behavior. Work is still ongoing in some areas, including changes related to deprecated server-side uploads. Read [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Unsupported Tools Working Group#February 2026|this update]] to learn more.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature, also known as [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror 6]], has been used for wikitext syntax highlighting since November 2024. It will be promoted out of beta by May 2026 in order to bring improvements and new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Features|features]] to all editors who use the standard syntax highlighter. If you have any questions or concerns about promoting the feature out of beta, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help talk:Extension:CodeMirror|please share]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T259059]
* Some changes to local user groups are performed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and logged there only. Now, interwiki rights changes will be logged both on Meta-Wiki and the wiki of the target user to make it easier to access a full record of user's rights changes on a local wiki. Past log entries for such changes will be backfilled in the coming weeks. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T6055]
* On wikis using [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Flagged Revisions|Flagged Revisions]], the number of pending changes shown on [[{{#Special:PendingChanges}}]] previously counted pages which were no longer pending review, because they have been removed from the system without being reviewed, e.g. due to being deleted, moved to a different namespace, or due to wiki configuration changes. The count will be correct now. On some wikis the number shown will be much smaller than before. There should be no change to the list of pages itself. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413016]
* Wikifunctions composition language has been rewritten, resulting in a new version of the language. This change aims to increase service stability by reducing the orchestrator's memory consumption. This rewrite also enables substantial latency reduction, code simplification, and better abstractions, which will open the door to later feature additions. Read more about [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-11|the changes]].
* Users can now sort search results alphabetically by page title. The update gives an additional option to finding pages more easily and quickly. Previously, results could be sorted by Edit date, Creation date, or Relevance. To use the new option, open 'Advanced Search' on the search results page and select 'Alphabetically' under 'Sorting Order'. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T403775]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:28}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:28|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, the bug that prevented UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons from importing files from Flickr has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419263]
'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* A new special page, [[{{#special:LintTemplateErrors}}]], has been created to list transcluded pages that are flagged as containing lint errors to help users discover them easily. The list is sorted by the number of transclusions with errors. For example: [[{{#special:LintTemplateErrors}}/night-mode-unaware-background-color]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T170874]
* Users of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature have been using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] for syntax highlighting when editing JavaScript, CSS, JSON, Vue and Lua content pages, for some time now. Along with promoting CodeMirror 6 out of beta, the plan is to replace CodeEditor as the standard editor for these content models by May 2026. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help talk:Extension:CodeMirror|Feedback or concerns are welcome]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332]
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] JavaScript modules will soon be upgraded to CodeMirror 6. Leading up to the upgrade, loading the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;ext.CodeMirror&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;ext.CodeMirror.lib&lt;/code&gt; modules from gadgets and user scripts was deprecated in July 2025. The use of the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;ext.CodeMirror.switch&lt;/code&gt; hook was also deprecated in March 2025. Contributors can now make their scripts or gadgets compatible with CodeMirror 6. See the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror#Gadgets and user scripts|migration guide]] for more information. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373720]
* The MediaWiki Interfaces team is expanding coverage of REST API module definitions to include [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:REST API/Extensions|extension APIs]]. REST API modules are groups of related endpoints that can be independently managed and versioned. Modules now exist for [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414470 GrowthExperiments] and [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419053 Wikifunctions] APIs. As we migrate extension APIs to this structure, documentation will move out of the main MediaWiki OpenAPI spec and REST Sandbox view, and will instead be accessible via module-specific options in the dropdown on the [https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RestSandbox REST Sandbox] (i.e., [[{{#Special:RestSandbox}}]], available on all wiki projects).
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto|Scribunto]] extension provides different pieces of information about the wiki where the module is being used via the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual|mw.site]] library. Starting last week, the library also provides a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#mw.site.wikiId|way]] of accessing the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Wiki ID|wiki ID]] that can be used to facilitate cross-wiki module maintenance.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Wikimedia site users can now log in without a password using passkeys. This is a secure method supported by fingerprint, facial recognition, or PIN. With this change, all users who opt for passwordless login will find it easier, faster, and more secure to log in to their accounts using any device. The new passkey login option currently appears as an autofill suggestion in the username field. An additional [[phab:T417120|&quot;Log in with passkey&quot; button]] will soon be available for users who have already registered a passkey. This update will improve security and user experience. The [[c:File:Passwordless_login_screencast.webm|screen recording]] demonstrates the passwordless login process step by step.
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|All wikis will be read-only]] for a few minutes on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1774450800 15:00 UTC]. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, [[wikitech:Deployments/Yearly calendar|which happen twice a year]]. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies.

'''Updates for editors'''
* Wikimedia site users can now export their notifications older than 5 years using a [[toolforge:echo-chamber|new Toolforge tool]]. This will ensure that users retain their important notifications and avoid them being lost based on the planned change to delete notifications older than 5 years, as previously announced. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383948]
* Wikipedia editors in Indonesian, Thai, Turkish, and Simple English now have access to Special:PersonalDashboard. This is an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Moderator Tools/Dashboard|early version of an experience]] that introduces newer editors to patrolling workflows, making it easier for them to move from making edits to participating in more advanced moderation work on their project. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T402647]
* The [[Special:Block]] now has two minor interface changes. Administrators can now easily perform indefinite blocks through a dedicated radio button in the expiry section. Also, choosing an indefinite expiry provides a different set of common reasons to select from, which can be changed at: [[MediaWiki:Ipbreason-indef-dropdown]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401823]
* Mobile editors [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#Logged-out|at several wikis]] can now see an improved logged-out edit warning, thanks to the recent updates from the Growth team. These changes released last week are part of ongoing efforts and tests to enhance [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments|account creation experience on mobile]] and then increase participation. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T408484]

For example, the bug that prevented mobile web users from seeing the block information when affected by multiple blocks has been fixed. They can now see messages of all the blocks currently affecting them when they access Wikipedia.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Images built using Toolforge will soon get the upgraded buildpacks version, bringing support for newer language versions and other upstream improvements and fixes. If you use Toolforge Build Service, review the recent [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/cloud-announce@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/EMYTA32EV2V5SQ2JIEOD2CL66YFIZEKV/ cloud-announce email] and update your build configuration as necessary to ensure your tools are compatible.

* The [https://api.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page API Portal] documentation wiki will shut down in June 2026. API keys created on the API Portal will continue to work normally. api.wikimedia.org endpoints will be deprecated gradually starting in July 2026.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Beta version of [[abstract:|Abstract Wikipedia]] a new Wikimedia project which is language-independent, was launched last week. The project allows communities to build Wikipedia articles in their native language, which can be readily accessed by other users in their own languages. The wiki is powered by instructions from Wikifunctions and also based on structured content from Wikidata. [[:f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26|Read more]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Growth team is running an A/B test to evaluate a clearer, more user-friendly message that promotes account creation on wikis. Currently when logged-out mobile users begin editing, they see a jarring warning message that can feel abrupt and discouraging. This also presents temporary account editing as the default rather than encouraging account creation. The test is running on ten Wikipedias, including Arabic, French, Spanish and German. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#2. Improve logged-out warning message (T415160)|Read more]].
* The Wikimedia Apps team is inviting feedback on [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Future of Editing on the Mobile Apps|how editing should work on the Wikipedia mobile apps]]. The discussion focuses on improving how users access editing tools when they tap &quot;Edit&quot;. This is part of a broader effort to convert readers who develop an interest in editing, to access a more user-friendly pathway to start contributing.

'''Updates for editors'''

* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents extension]] now includes a new group goal-setting feature, enabling organizers to set and track event goals such as the number of articles created and participating contributors in real time. Similarly, participants can work toward shared targets and see their collective impact as the event unfolds. The feature is now available on all Wikimedia wikis. Learn more in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents/Registration/Collaborative contributions#Goal setting|the documentation]].

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|sub-referencing feature]], which lets editors add details to an existing reference without duplicating it, will be gradually rolled out to [[phab:T414094|more wikis]] later this year. Wikis using the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reference Tooltips|Reference Tooltips]] gadget are encouraged to update their version (typically at [[m:MediaWiki:Gadget-ReferenceTooltips.js|MediaWiki:Gadget-ReferenceTooltips.js]] as shown [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1344408362 here]) to ensure compatibility. Other reference-related gadgets may also be affected. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T416304]
* All Wikinews editions will be closed and switched to read-only mode on 4 May 2026. Content will remain accessible, but no new edits or articles can be added. This closure was approved by the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation following extended discussions. [[m:Wikimedia Foundation Board noticeboard#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|Read more]].
* The [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:Action API|Action API]] has had several formats for requested output.

Check [[Special:ListGroupRights|Special:ListGroupRights]] for the status of your wiki. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T248294]
* The Growth team has launched an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account_Creation_Experiments|account creation experiment]] to evaluate whether adding an account creation button to the mobile web header increases new account registrations and encourages more mobile users to contribute to the wikis. The experiment is currently live on Hindi, Indonesian, Bengali, Thai, and Hebrew Wikipedia, and targets 10% of logged-out mobile web users.
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:30}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:30|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, an issue where VisualEditor could get stuck loading on Windows devices with animations turned off, has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T382856]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* Starting later this week, {{int:group-abusefilter}} who have the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature enabled will have [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] as the editor at [[Special:AbuseFilter|Special:AbuseFilter]]. This is part of the broader effort to make the user experience more consistent across all editors. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T399673][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332]
* Tools and bots that access the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Notifications/API|Notifications API]] (&lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;action=query&amp;meta=notifications&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;) will need to update their OAuth or BotPassword grants to also include access to private notifications. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T421991]
* Due to a library upgrade, listings on category pages may be displayed out of order starting on Monday, 20th April. A migration script will be run to correct this, and will take hours to days depending on the size of the wiki (up to a week for English Wikipedia). [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T422544]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* After two years of development, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]], also known as [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror 6]], is to be promoted out of beta on Tuesday, April 21. It brings better code and wikitext readability, reduction in typing errors, and other [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|benefits]] to all users of the standard syntax highlighter. A huge thank you to volunteer [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/Bhsd/ Bhsd] who developed many of the new features, including [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Code folding|code folding]], [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Autocompletion|autocompletion]], and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Linting|linting]].

'''Updates for editors'''
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4 Reading lists|Reading lists]] is a feature which allows readers to save articles to a list for reading later. This feature is now in beta on Arabic, French, Indonesian, Vietnamese, and Chinese Wikipedias and by default for all new accounts on all Wikipedias.
* An experiment which explores extending [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/Mobile page previews|Page Previews to mobile web]] will be launched in the week of April 20 on Arabic, English, French, Italian, Polish, and Vietnamese Wikipedias. Page Previews are pop-ups that display a thumbnail, lead paragraph, and a link to open the full article of a blue link, thereby improving content discovery. The feature is already available on desktop and in the apps. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/List of experiments in Product and Technology#Template|Read more about this experiment and others]].
* On several wikis, logged-in editors who haven't [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Email confirmation|confirmed their email addresses]] can now see a banner encouraging them to do so. Having the email address confirmed allows a user to restore access to the account if they lose it. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security#Encouraging users to confirm their email addresses|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T421366]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:15}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:15|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, an issue where editing very large wiki pages in the 2017 wikitext editor caused slow loading, preview and scrolling lag, and performance issues when selecting, cutting, or pasting content, has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T184857]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* As part of the promotion of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] from a beta feature, all users will use [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] for syntax highlighting when editing JavaScript, CSS, JSON, Vue and Lua content pages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332]
* The &lt;code&gt;mirrors.wikimedia.org&lt;/code&gt; service for Debian and Ubuntu users will sunset and stop working on May 15. The resources for the service will be replaced with new and better options. Some users may need to switch to a different server which should take about a minute.

If your tools or queries access &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;image&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; or &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;oldimage&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; directly, please update them to use the &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;file&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; and &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;filerevision&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt; table before 28 May. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T28741]
* Following the recent implementation of global API rate limits on unidentified traffic, the Wikimedia Foundation will continue efforts to ensure [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]] by applying global limits to identified API traffic beginning the last week of April. These limits are intentionally set as high as possible to minimise impact on the community. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits/FAQ|Frequently Asked Questions]].
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Attribution API|Attribution API]] is now available as a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Stability policy|beta]]. The API fetches information for crediting Wikimedia articles and media files wherever they are used. Reference documentation is available through the REST Sandbox special page available on all Wikimedia wikis (such as the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?api=attribution.v0-beta&amp;title=Special%3ARestSandbox REST sandbox on English Wikipedia]). Share your feedback on the [[mw:Talk:Attribution API|project talk page]].
* There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

'''Updates for editors'''
* There is a change in how new users are autoconfirmed that will improve anti-vandalism protection. Currently, users who have had an account for a few days and made a few edits are automatically added to the [[{{int:grouppage-autoconfirmed/{{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}}}|{{int:group-autoconfirmed}}]] group. This configuration tends to be exploited by some vandals, who create accounts and start to use them only after some time. To mitigate this, the configuration will be updated next week so that – for the purpose of becoming autoconfirmed – the account age will be counted from their first edit, instead of registration date. The numeric value of the age threshold will remain the same. This change will be deployed only to wikis which require at least one edit as part of the autoconfirmation conditions. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418484]
* All Wikipedia users with new accounts and those who activated the &quot;automatically enable most beta features&quot; option in their preference can now use the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4 Reading lists|reading lists]] beta feature to save articles for later reading. This helps organize reading interests in one place for convenient access.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* As a reminder, the global API rate limits will be applied this week to identified API traffic. This is to help ensure [[mw:MediaWiki Product Insights/Responsible Reuse|fair use of infrastructure]]. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance|Article guidance]] team invites experienced editors of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance/Pilot wikis and collaborators|pilot Wikipedias]]—Arabic, Bangla, Japanese, Portuguese, Persian, Turkish, Simple English, Spanish, and French—to help translate and adapt [https://b24e11a4f1.catalyst.wmcloud.org/wiki/Category:Pages_using_article_guidance sample outlines]. These outlines will guide editors in creating clear, well-structured, and policy-compliant articles when using [https://b24e11a4f1.catalyst.wmcloud.org/wiki/Special:NewArticle the feature] once it is launched in May 2026. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Article guidance#Adapting a sample outline in a Wikipedia|Simple instructions]] on how to translate and adapt the outlines are available.
'''Updates for editors'''
* The [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council|Product and Technology Advisory Council]] has published [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/May 2026 draft PTAC recommendation for feedback|draft recommendations]] on a model that affiliates can follow when contributing to the technical space. Community members are invited to provide feedback on the recommendation until May 8th [[:m:Talk:Product and Technology Advisory Council/May 2026 draft PTAC recommendation for feedback|on the talk page]].
* The number of available thumbnail size preferences in MediaWiki is being reduced to three standardized options—Small (180px), Regular (250px), and Large (400px), as part of ongoing efforts to improve performance and reduce strain on thumbnail services. As a result, existing preferences will be mapped to the nearest new size (for example, smaller selections like 120px or 150px will render at 180px, while larger ones like 300px or 360px will render at 400px). The preferences interface will soon be updated to reflect these changes, and users who wish to opt out or provide feedback can do so. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T424909]
* From now on, even when a permission expires automatically, users will receive an Echo notification similar to the standard notification for permission changes. There is a difference between this and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Global reminder bot|Global reminder bot]] in that the latter reminds users a week ''before'' the rights are due to expire, so that they can renew the rights.
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:32}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:32|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, the problem where the ULS language selector in [[m:Special:Translate|Special:Translate]] would scroll vertically when it shouldn't, has been resolved. Previously, when users opened the &quot;Translate to English&quot; dropdown and typed certain inputs, the dialog would scroll vertically by a few pixels even when there was enough space to display all results. The dropdown no longer shifts unnecessarily when filtering languages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T358864] 
* The [[m:Special:GlobalWatchlist|Global Watchlist]], which lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on a single page, continues to improve. For example, watchlists for Wikibase sites such as [[:d:|Wikidata]] now support [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:EntitySchema|EntitySchema]] elements for better tracking. The Live Updates mode now refreshes the special page every 60 seconds to comply with the updated [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|global API rate limits]] for improved real-time responsiveness. Additionally, a directionality bug that displayed links as &quot;changes 3&quot; instead of &quot;3 changes&quot; in mixed-direction lists has been fixed.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The second phase of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|global API rate limits]] has been rolled out to reduce the [[diffblog:2026/03/26/quo-vadis-crawlers-progress-and-whats-next-on-safeguarding-our-infrastructure/|impact of AI crawlers]] and ensure fair, sustainable access to Wikimedia resources, prioritising human and mission-aligned traffic. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits#Limits|Limits]] have been shifted from per-hour to per-minute, producing smoother traffic patterns and more predictable API load. Community users are not expected to be affected, and no action is required. Early indications show some User-Agent-based requestors are adjusting behaviour, and around 64% of automated API traffic has been identified. Monitoring continues, and Wikimedia Enterprise remains available for commercial support.

[[File:Wikiversity Interface administrator.svg|right|130px|link=]]
A Wikiversity '''interface administrator''' is a trusted user who has the technical ability to edit the [[w:Wikipedia:User scripts|JavaScript]] and [[w:Help:Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] of all users.

== What can interface administrators do? ==
Interface administrators may use their rights as described below:&lt;ref group=n&gt;Interface administrators may '''never''' [[:w:WP:WHEEL|wheel war]] or [[:w:WP:Edit warring|edit war]] using their rights, even if they are editing according to policy. Doing so is grounds for immediate removal of access. Instead, open a discussion.&lt;/ref&gt;

== Access ==
;How does one become an interface administrator?
[[Wikiversity:Bureaucratship|Bureaucrats]] have the technical ability to grant interface administrator access, but should do so only in the manner described here.

* For now, Wikiversity does not have a need for permanent or long term interface administrators. Accordingly, interface administratorship '''may only be granted temporarily''' by bureaucrats (between 14 and 120 days without discussion, at the discretion of that bureaucrat and perceived need)
* To provide a second set of eyes, bureaucrats '''may not grant themselves interface adminship''' - it must be granted by a different bureaucrat
** Exception: If no other bureaucrats are available within a reasonable amount of time, and other uninvolved [[Wikiversity:Support staff|support staff]] agree that the request is reasonable, a bureaucrat may grant themselves the rights
* Interface adminship should not be granted to non-support staff (non-custodian, non-curator) without prior discussion
* Users seeking interface adminship must enable two-factor authentication.

;Losing access
Bureaucrats have the technical ability to remove interface administrator access. They should do so in the manner described here, but in an emergency are empowered to act with discretion.

* A bureaucrat may, without prior discussion, revoke interface adminship if it is being used to edit against the community's wishes, or otherwise being used improperly. The bureaucrat must then open a discussion.
* A bureaucrat may, after prior discussion, revoke interface adminship if there is consensus among support staff that it should be revoked.
* A bureaucrat may, at the request of any interface administrator, revoke their interface adminship
* Interface administrators may revoke their own interface adminship

;Discussions
* Requests for interface adminship, and discussions regarding revoking such rights, should be made publicly in well-watched areas, such as at [[Wikiversity:Notices for custodians]] or [[Wikiversity:Request custodian action]]
* If a bureaucrat removes interface administrator rights without discussion in an emergency, they must promptly initiate a discussion for the community to review their actions
** The bureaucrat must leave a note with the user in question, alerting them to the removal of access and the discussion
** The bureaucrat must explain ''why'' they have removed access
** While a discussion is open, another bureaucrat may not restore the rights

The Honourable George Keppel

Sir Derek Keppel

== Overview ==
[[File:Alice Keppel.jpg|thumb|alt=Painted portrait of the upper third of a woman wearing a white formal dress and large jewels|Alice Keppel, 1890s]]

Alice Keppel is shown (right) at about 30 years old. She died (at nearly 80) of cirrhosis of the liver.&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt; George Keppel was the 3rd son of the Earl of Albemarle. Alice and George Keppel are the great grandparents of Queen Camilla, who was less than a year old when they died. Alice Keppel was one of two last mistresses of [[Social Victorians/People/Albert Edward, Prince of Wales|Albert Edward, Prince of Wales]], for many an improvement over [[Social Victorians/People/Warwick|Daisy, Countess of Warwick]], who was not discreet and who had enemies. Agnes Keyser seems to have begun a relationship with the Prince of Wales about the same time Alice Keppel did — around 1898. (Keyser was not a socialite, and Lamont-Brown says she mothered him in a way he had craved his entire life.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot;&gt;Lamont-Brown, Raymond. ''Alice Keppel and Agnes Keyser: Edward VII's Last Loves''. History Press, 2011. [Preview on Google Books: [https://books.google.com/books?id=8LQTDQAAQBAJ&amp;source=gbs_navlinks_s https://books.google.com/books?id=8LQTDQAAQBAJ].&lt;/ref&gt;)

Famous for her tact, discretion and social skills, Alice Keppel and [[Social Victorians/People/de Soveral|Luís de Soveral]] were friends, and [[Social Victorians/People/Alexandra, Princess of Wales|Alex, Princess of Wales]], tolerated her and allowed her to visit King Edward VII on his deathbed, the only mistress granted this access.

In his account of the &quot;Social and Diplomatic Life&quot; of Edward VII, Gordon Brook-Shepherd describes ways George and Alice Keppel's lives changed after the Prince of Wales's accession to the throne:&lt;blockquote&gt;For Mrs Keppel, in particular, the accession brought greater problems as well as greater privileges. It was one thing to have an Heir-Apparent for a lover but something quite different when that lover became the ruler of the British Empire. To begin with, even to move in the appropriate style at the King's side cost a great deal more money, / and money was something that neither Edward VII nor the Hon. George Keppel had to spare. Indeed, in an attempt to put extra cash into the Keppel family coffers after Alice had become the mistress of a king, her husband was obliged to go &quot;into trade.&quot; Sir Thomas Lipton, the grocer millionaire and yachting friend of King Edward's, found a job for him in his &quot;Buyers' Association&quot; at No. 70–74 Wigmore Street. This, to judge from the firm's stationery on which George Keppel once wrote a business letter to [[Social Victorians/People/de Soveral|Soveral]], sold everything direct to the customer, from groceries, bedding and tobacco, to cartridges and coal. It also advertised &quot;Motor Cars Bought, Sold or Exchanged,&quot; and it was about this that Keppel, prompted by his Alice, wrote to the Portuguese Minister:

:&quot;Dear Soveral, My wife tells me you contemplate buying a small motor car for use in London. May we offer our services in the matter ...? [sic]

For an earl's son to be a salesman in Edwardian England was bad enough. For the salesman to be the husband of the King's official mistress was an added humiliation. Though George Keppel seems to have taken the whole situation philosophically, there were many in society who condemned him for being so much the ''mari complaisant''. As one distinguished survivor from that Edwardian age, who shall be anonymous, commented: &quot;Had Keppel been put up for membership at some London clubs, the black balls would have come rolling out like caviare.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;Brook-Shepherd, Gordon. ''Uncle of Europe: The Social and Diplomatic Life of Edward VII''. London: Collins, 1975. Internet Archive: [https://archive.org/details/uncleofeurope0000unse/page/62/mode/2up?q=soveral https://archive.org/details/uncleofeurope0000unse/].&lt;/ref&gt;{{rp|138–139}}&lt;/blockquote&gt;While her reputation was one of discretion, she was widely known to be the King's mistress and &quot;when it came to visits to the homes of the great and good with the king,&quot;&lt;blockquote&gt;she was always to be found standing or sitting near her lover in the official photographs for the picture papers of the day. And her &quot;pushy presence&quot;, some were to say, was such a constant irritation to Queen Alexandra that it drove her to eschew her husband's company.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;According to Lamont-Brown,&lt;blockquote&gt;Reginald Baliol Brett, 2nd Viscount Esher (1852–1930), royal archivist and intimate of every prime minister from Rosebery to Baldwin, ... believed that she deliberately lied in Society about certain royal happenings to enhance her own reputation.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;On 10 March 1932, Thursday, Virginia Woolf wrote in her diary about a lunch with Alice Keppel:&lt;blockquote&gt;I had lunched with Raymond [Mortimer, critic] to meet Mrs Keppel; a swarthy thick set raddled direct — &quot;My dear&quot;, she calls one — old grasper: whose fists had been in the moneybags these 50 years: And she has a flat in the Ritz; old furniture; &amp;c. I like her on the surface of the old courtezan: who has lost all bloom; &amp; acquired a kind of cordiality, humour, directness instead. No sensibilities as far as I could see; no snobberies, immense superficial knowledge, &amp; going to Berlin to hear Hitler speak. Shabby under dress: magnificent furs, great pearls: a Rolls Royce waiting. [sic editorial interpolation]&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

== Costume at the Duchess of Devonshire's 2 July 1897 Fancy-dress Ball ==
Freddie Keppel — the Hon. Mrs. George Keppel — attended the [[Social Victorians/1897 Fancy Dress Ball | Duchess of Devonshire's fancy-dress ball]] dressed as Madame de Polignac. The Hon. George Keppel attended, dressed as King Solomon. Neither appears to have been in the first supper seating, suggesting that her prominence was yet to come. Also, they did not use any of the most notable costumiers (like [[Social Victorians/People/Dressmakers and Costumiers#Mr. Alias|Mr. Alias]]) or couturiers (like [[Social Victorians/People/Dressmakers and Costumiers#Mrs. Mason|Mrs. Mason]]) who sometimes provided the press with information about or perhaps viewings of the costumes. Further, their portraits do not appear in the commemorative album. The newspapers commented on the Keppels' costumes, but no portrait of either for this ball survives.[[File:Duchess of Polignac by E.Vigee-Lebrun (1787, Atheneum).jpg|thumb|alt=Painting of the upper half of a woman wearing a white dress with a black lacy shawl and a large straw hat over hair that is loose and lightly powdered|''Duchess of Polignac'' by Vigee-Le Brun, 1787]]
=== The Hon. Mrs. George Keppel ===
The portrait of Gabrielle, Duchess of Polignac (right), painted by Élisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun in 1787, shows the duchess at about 30 years old, about what Alice Keppel was at the time of the ball. Vigée Le Brun painted several portraits of Gabrielle around this time, and in them all, Gabrielle appears informally dressed, without jewelry, so the portraits seem more intimate than official. Gabrielle's dress in this portrait is not the original for Keppel's dress — its style is transitional between the stiff fabrics and panniers of the formal court (and the past) and the post-revolutionary empire waists, columnar shape and lightweight fabrics. [[Social Victorians/People/Working in Publishing#Journalists|Ardern Holt]]'s description of Keppel's dress for ''The Queen'' (below) bears no relation to what we can see in Le Brun's portrait of Gabrielle, Duchess of Polignac.

Unlike this more informal presentation of Madame de Polignac, Freddie Keppel's costume appears to have been elaborate and pre-Revolutionary.

==== Newspaper Reports of Her Costume ====
Alice Keppel walked in the [[Social Victorians/1897 Fancy Dress Ball/Quadrilles Courts#Louis XV and XVI Period|Louis XV procession]] led by [[Social Victorians/People/Warwick|Daisy, Countess of Warwick]], who was dressed as Marie Antoinette.

*Ardern Holt's writing for ''The Queen'' is typically more trustworthy on fashion and garment construction than other, more traditional news outlets: &quot;''Madame de Polignac'' appeared at the Devonshire House ball in the Louis XV. quadrille, represented by the Hon. Mrs George Keppel, in an old dress of the period, a rose and silver brocade handed down from that century. The [[Social Victorians/Terminology#Hoops|pouf paniers]] [sic] were lined with pale green soft satin, and faced back with wide bands of silver embroidery. The hooped petticoat was of cloth of silver worked in tinsel threads of all shades, forming a design of roses in true lovers' knots extending from the waist to the hem; at the foot it was garlanded with pink pompon [sic] roses, interlaced through the stripes of embroidery, and below this was a quaint pleating of silver lace. The low bodice was finished off with a transparent lace collar sewn with silver. The hair was powdered and dressed very high, with soft curls falling on the neck, surmounted by a pink and green ostrich feather and a small garland of roses. She wore long lace mittens.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;Holt, Ardern. “Fancy Dress.” ''The Queen'' 31 July 1897, Saturday: 43 [of 84], Col. 3c [of 3].

==== Madame de Polignac ====
Madame de Polignac was Yolande Martine Gabrielle de Polastron (1749–1793), known as Gabrielle.&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|date=2024-10-01|title=Yolande de Polastron|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yolande_de_Polastron|journal=Wikipedia|language=en}} https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yolande_de_Polastron.&lt;/ref&gt; She was a confidante and favorite of Marie Antoinette beginning in 1775, though Gabrielle was unpopular and the queen's affections were variable.&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; One of Madame de Polignac's closest friends was Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire. Gabrielle died of cancer in Switzerland, shortly after Marie Antoinette's execution in Paris, having fled France after the storming of the Bastille.&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt;

[[File:King Solomon.jpg|thumb|alt=Old painting of a seated, bearded man holding a scepter and looking off to our left|Simeon Solomon's ''King Solomon'', c. 1874]]
=== The Hon. George Keppel ===
George Keppel (who is early in the list '''of the people attending the ball''' for the London ''Morning Post''), walked in the [[Social Victorians/1897 Fancy Dress Ball/Quadrilles Courts#Louis XV and XVI Period|&quot;Oriental&quot; procession]] as King Solomon in the Suite of Men following the two Queens of Sheba (Lady Cynthia Graham and [[Social Victorians/People/Pless |Daisy, Princess of Pless]])&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;{{rp|7, Col. 5b}}&lt;ref&gt;&quot;Ball at Devonshire House.&quot; The ''Times'' Saturday 3 July 1897: 12, Cols. 1a–4c ''The Times Digital Archive''. Web. 28 Nov. 2015.&lt;/ref&gt; and was attended by &quot;Messrs. [[Social Victorians/People/Halifax|Gordon Wood]] and [[Social Victorians/People/Sarah Spencer-Churchill Wilson|Wilfred Wilson]].&quot;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt;{{rp|p. 34, Col. 3a}}

No photograph of Keppel in his costume from this ball exists. The c. 1874 portrait of King Solomon (right), by Simeon Solomon, is now in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., which received it as a gift in 1995 from William B. O'Neal.&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;&quot;Solomon, Simeon (1874?)), King Solomon.&quot; Art Object Page 76152. National Gallery of Art. https://www.nga.gov/collection/art-object-page.76152.html#provenance (retrieved 2024-11-27).&lt;/ref&gt; O'Neal may have bought it from the Durlacher Brothers,&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; an art gallery founded in London in 1843 by Henry Durlacher and his brother George. After Henry Durlacher's death his sons opened a New York branch.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|date=2024-05-13|title=Lewis Durlacher|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Durlacher|journal=Wikipedia|language=en}} https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Durlacher.&lt;/ref&gt; Where George Keppel might have seen this painting — if he ever did — is not clear, because it is not clear how long the Durlacher Brothers owned it or when they exhibited it. In spite of how it looks, this is the entire painting.

Of the many depictions of King Solomon, Simeon Solomon's painting might have been familiar to Keppel or his costumier, and it shows the king wearing a crown, robe and light-colored tunic, like Keppel. 

According to the newspaper reports Keppel was dressed as

==== King Solomon ====
Stories about King Solomon appear in Jewish, Christian, Islamic and Baháʼí traditions.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|date=2024-11-04|title=Solomon|url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomon|journal=Wikipedia|language=en}} https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomon.&lt;/ref&gt; The Queen of Sheba visited King Solomon with gifts and tested his wisdom, perhaps the characteristic most associated with him. The [[Social Victorians/Victorian Things#Encyclopaedia Britannica|9th edition of the ''Encyclopaedia Britannica'']] does not have an article about King Solomon, although he figures in other, historical articles, like the one on Israel.

== The 1895 Warwick Bal Poudré ==
[[File:Alice - Kostümfest.jpg|thumb|alt=Old black-and-white photograph showing a woman dressed in a long gown with a lot of ruffles|Alice Keppel, 1895?]]
The Hon. George and Alice Keppel attended the Countess and Earl of Warwick's [[Social Victorians/1895 Bal Poudre Warwick Castle|February 1895 bal poudré at Warwick Castle]].

Even though no portrait of Alice in her costume from the 1897 Duchess of Devonshire ball exists, a photograph of her in what may be her costume for at the Warwick ball does. This photograph (right), which has no provenance information, is a low-resolution digital image of a positive rather than a negative, which explains its poor quality. (The Lafayette Negative Archive [http://lafayette.org.uk/&lt;nowiki&gt;] and the Bassano Studio Portrait Collection [&lt;/nowiki&gt;https://www.npg.org.uk/collections/about/photographs-collection/bassano-studio-portrait-collection&lt;nowiki&gt;] do not include any portraits of the Keppels.)&lt;/nowiki&gt;

According to the ''Leamington Spa Courier'', Alice Keppel was dressed as a &quot;Lady, time Louis XVI.&quot; at the Warwick ball and wearing a&lt;blockquote&gt;Gown of shell pink satin, pointed bodice, with full paniers, of antique brocade of the real deep rose shade known as du Barri sewn with silver thread and bouquets of roses. Full petticoat, of dull creamy-tinted satin, with a deep band round it of silver tissue embroidered with garlands of small leafless roses. The sleeves had long ruffles of old lace. The hair was powdered and dressed elaborately and high, with three rose du Barri feathers in it and a little cap of lace. The shoes were of pink satin, with diamond buckles.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;The Grand Bal Poudre at Warwick Castle.&quot; ''Leamington Spa Courier'' 09 February 1895, Saturday: 6 [of 8], Cols. 1a–6c [of 6] – 7, Col. 1a. ''British Newspaper Archive''  [https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000319/18950209/042/0006# https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000319/18950209/042/0006].&lt;/ref&gt; (6, 4c)&lt;/blockquote&gt;The description from the ''Leamington Spa Courier'' does not match the dress in this photograph in a number of particulars, at least as far as it is possible to analyze the image. The dress in the photograph is not a dress from the 18th century, and it does not appear to have &quot;[[Social Victorians/Terminology#Hoops|full paniers]],&quot; although it may have the late 19th-century version of panniers — a bustle. The neckline, however, makes it look like a costume intended to look like a theatrical 18th century costume. The sleeves also have &quot;long ruffles&quot; of lace and, because of the [[Social Victorians/Terminology#Frou-frou|frou-frou]], also seem 18th century. Keppel's gloves cover her arm up above the elbow, an oddity that seems to clash with the long ruffles on the sleeves, which would normally emphasize the flesh.

{{HTitle|General Information}}
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nepal Nepal], officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal, is a landlocked country located between India to the east, south, and west and Tibet to the north. It lies along the southern slopes of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Himalayas Himalayan Mountain] ranges. There are 123 different languages spoken as the mother tongue in Nepal, although the official languages are [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nepali_language Nepali] and English.

{{HTitle|Incidence and Prevalence of Hearing Loss}}
A 1990 Nepal national survey reported 7.5% of the total population has some amount of hearing loss.
&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Pascolini|first=Donatella|last2=Smith|first2=Andrew|date=2009-01|title=Hearing Impairment in 2008: A compilation of available epidemiological studies|url=http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14992020902803120|journal=International Journal of Audiology|language=en|volume=48|issue=7|pages=473–485|doi=10.1080/14992020902803120|issn=1499-2027}}&lt;/ref&gt; Little information is available regarding the extent of disabilities, including hearing loss. There are also a few existing programs and organizations that assist in developing rehabilitation programs for hearing loss. Another study conducted in 2006 reported the prevalence of otitis media effusion in Nepalese children was 13.2%, and those with hearing loss comprised 12.47%. &lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Maharjan|first=M.|last2=Bhandari|first2=S.|last3=Singh|first3=I.|last4=Mishra|first4=S.

Like most developing countries, Nepal is also developing in terms of its infrastructure and facilities. Healthcare in Nepal is also making progress along with other services; however, the rehabilitation aspect is still in its infancy. The state has not been able to provide substantial guidance for most people with disabilities. Advocacy and support for reducing hearing loss have had their fair share of difficulties. Hearing loss and hearing aids are still stigmatized in many parts of Nepal, and awareness is concentrated in the major cities.

=== Education of Hard of Hearing ===
The initial school for the hard of hearing was established in Kathmandu in 1965. This school was previously known as Bahira Balak ko School. It was renamed as the Speech Instruction Centre for Deaf Children and was located in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bir_Hospital Bir Hospital] before moving to [https://www.nconepal.org.np/contact-us/ Bal Mandir] in Naxal, a neighborhood in central Kathmandu. Presently, it is known as the Central Secondary School for the Deaf. This institution, along with the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kathmandu_Association_of_the_Deaf Kathmandu Association of the Deaf (KAD)], is said to be the origin of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nepali_Sign_Language Nepali Sign Language (NSL)]. The blossoming of NSL took place even though the Central Secondary School followed an oral philosophy when it was founded. In 1988, it adopted a total communication philosophy involving the production of spoken Nepali along with sign language in Nepali&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Hoffmann-Dilloway|first=Erika|date=2011-06|title=Lending a hand: Competence through cooperation in Nepal's Deaf associations|url=https://www.cambridge.org/core/product/identifier/S0047404511000194/type/journal_article|journal=Language in Society|language=en|volume=40|issue=3|pages=285–306|doi=10.1017/S0047404511000194|issn=0047-4045}}&lt;/ref&gt; ([https://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/handle/2027.42/58405/eghoffma_1.pdf?sequence=1 Hoffmann, 2008.]  Four other deaf schools were established in the same time frame in Surkhet, Bhairahawa, Saptari, and Dharan ([https://deafnepal.org.np/en/introduction-of-ndfn/ NDFN], 2019).

{{HTitle|Information About Audiology}}
=== History ===
The field of [https://www.earaidnepal.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Audiology-in-Nepal-article-for-Global-Audiology-author-Anup-Ghimire-MSc-2021.pdf audiology in Nepal] is still in its infancy and taking its first steps. The first audiology-related services were noted in the late 1980s, when the audiology service was started within the Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital ([https://tuth.org.np/ TUTH]), a tertiary care center located in Kathmandu.

TUTH was the first institution in Nepal to train and produce manpower in the field of audiology. More recently, the National Academy of Medical Sciences (NAMS) has initiated undergraduate-level education in audiology, further expanding the training in audiology. Audiology services at TUTH began in 2009. Since then, this profession has undergone major growth and offers a vast range of ear and hearing healthcare. Most audiological services are centered in major cities such as Kathmandu, Pokhara, and Biratnagar.

=== Educational Institutions ===
Hearing health care education system is not well developed in Nepal. There is only one course offered in Speech and Hearing Science. A Bachelors in Audiology and Speech Language Pathology (BASLP) is a 4-year academic program under the leadership of S.L. Karna and Kabiraj Khanal that are offered at the Institute of Medicine (IOM), which is affiliated with [http://www.tribhuvan-university.edu.np/ Tribhuvan University]. The course enables the speech and hearing specialist, commonly referred to as an audiologist and speech pathologist, to provide services to sufferers of hearing disorders and speech defects, such as aphasia, stuttering, voice disorders, delayed speech, motor speech disorders, and language development disorders.

More recently, the NAMS has initiated undergraduate-level education in audiology. Gandaki Hospital (Afflilated with TU)  is planning to start an undergraduate program in speech and hearing science, but it has not yet started.

=== Audiology Practice: Public and Private ===
In Nepal, professional audiology services are provided in the private and public sectors. The public institutions include government- and community administered hospitals and university medical colleges.

Public institutions charge a minimum amount for different audiological services, whereas private clinics are more expensive due to high administrative and instrument costs. For the cochlear implant program, the government provides funds; however, this fund is small when compared to the number of patients who require implantation. Few non-governmental organizations (NGOs) provide free or low-cost hearing aids. Public hospitals provide only diagnostic services. A patient with hearing aids will have to visit a private clinic for services. Audiological services are not covered by insurance.

Private clinics are available for all Nepali citizens. To access private clinics, patients must pay out of pocket. Kathmandu is the only place where there are more than 15 clinics. Public clinics and hospitals should open more vacancies for audiologists to provide services for the marginalized population. Also, a low-cost, high-quality hearing aid should be developed for developing nations like Nepal.

=== Professionals ===
There are currently a total of 91 registered professionals working in Nepal in the field of speech and hearing. Out of which 12 have a postgraduate degree and 79 have undergraduate degrees as their qualification. This is based on data of registered professionals as  August 24, 2020 with the [https://nhpc.gov.np/ Nepal Health Professional Council (NHPC)], which is the common governing body for licensing and regulation of all health professionals, including audiologists and speech-language pathologists.  
There is only one ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgeon for every 600,000 people in Nepal, and just one audiologist for every 6,000,000 people. 

=== Audiological Services ===
Audiological services provided include: 
* Hearing assessment both behavioral and electrophysiological (PTA, VRA, BOA, Play audiometry, BERA, OAE, Tympanometry)
* Selection, fitting, and verification of fitting
* Cochlear implant mapping, auditory training, and assessing audiological candidacy
* Vestibular rehabilitation and assessment
* Tinnitus and hyperacusis assessment and management
* Newborn hearing screening, etc.
*
It is important to note that most audiological facilities are based in urban areas, making it difficult for people in rural areas to access such services. There are many organizations that work to extend audiological services to rural and remote areas by conducting hearing screening camps and appointing public health workers to facilitate the identification of hearing disorders and appropriate referrals. However, general awareness of hearing healthcare in rural areas is still poor. The lower socio-economic status of people living in rural Nepal makes it difficult for them to travel to urban areas to receive services.

=== Services Offered by Otolaryngologists ===
Otolaryngologists in Nepal provide services for different congenital and acquired diseases of the ear. The facility includes diagnostic services and medical and surgical treatment of different diseases of the outer, middle, and inner ear. Otolaryngologists use a range of surgical methods for hearing restoration, such as cochlear implants and other implantable hearing aids.

=== '''Scope of Practice and Licensing''' ===

To be an audiologist in Nepal, an individual must have a minimum of an undergraduate degree in Speech and Hearing Science. Undergraduate professionals are trained and educated for the identification of hearing loss at all ages and the assessment and diagnosis of hearing and vestibular disorders by performing behavioral and electrophysiologic measures. These undergraduate professionals are also trained to provide treatments such as amplification devices, assistive listening devices, auditory training, and rehabilitation of vestibular function.

An audiologist with a postgraduate degree is trained to do basic audiological services along with special audiological services like cochlear implant mapping, intraoperative monitoring, vestibular evaluation and management, and tinnitus assessment and management.

The regulatory body has not produced any documentation regarding the scope of practice.

=== Professional ad Regulatory Bodies ===
The [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064855441572 Speech and Hearing Association of Nepal (SHAN)] is the professional and scientific association with over 70 members, while the Nepal Professional Health Council (NHPC) is the regulatory body that regulates training and practice.

The Speech and Hearing Association of Nepal (SHAN) was formed in 1999. It is a professional and scientific association for speech-language pathologists and audiologists in Nepal. Its role is to promote hearing, speech, and language professions and rehabilitation services through advocacy and continuing rehabilitation education (CRE). It is also involved in monitoring professionals, encouraging and supporting research in the field of speech and hearing. SHAN has organized many conferences, CRE opportunities, awareness rallies, and camps.

Currently, there are 63 life members, 29 associate members, and 2 foreign members within the association. Other associations include:

# Cochlear Implant Nepal Group (CING) is a group of otologists, audiologists, speech language pathologists, nurses, pediatricians, and others who are focused on cochlear implant patients in Nepal. This organization strives to raise awareness regarding cochlear implants and obtain government support. CING was able to obtain funding for cochlear implants, where the government bears 50% of the cost of the implant. Even with funding, CIs are a costly option in Nepal and post cochlear implantation rehabilitation services are mainly limited to Kathmandu.
# Society of Otolaryngologists Nepal (SOL) is mainly an association for ENT surgeons in which audiologists and SLPs are associate members.

Every year, SHAN, in collaboration with CING and SOL, organizes events and an awareness program to mark World Hearing Day on the 3rd of March. In addition, SHAN has been actively involved in organizing both national and international conferences to promote professional development and research in audiology and hearing sciences, with the most recent international conference held in 2025 [https://shan.org.np/shan-con-2025/].

The [https://nhpc.gov.np/ Nepal Health Professional Council] (NHPC) is an autonomous body established under the Nepal Health Professional Council Act 2053 (1996). The aim of this council is to register all “health professionals” omitting medical doctors and nurses according to their qualification and bring them into a legal system to make their services effective, timely, and evidence based. The Nepal Professional Health Council (NHPC) has classified professionals in 4 levels: Specialization level (Post Graduated), First level (Undergraduate), and second level (diploma in speech and Hearing) (Nepal Health Professional Council, 2021). NHPC also enforces disciplinary action against unqualified persons delivering health services.

{{HTitle|Research in Audiology}}
Currently, research in the field of audiology is increasing. Most of the research is conducted at the Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital and the [https://gphospital.org/home-page/ Green Pasture Hospital], and the Nepal Speech and Hearing Association (SHAN), along with the Society of Otorhinolaryngology Nepal (SOL), organizes regular scientific conferences to promote scientific activity in the field of ears and hearing in Nepal. The Nepal Health Research Council (NHRC) also supports and governs research activity in Nepal.

Research focused on developing high- and low-frequency speech audiometry test materials and tinnitus and vestibular research. Picture identification tests for children are some of the research topics that are published in national and international peer-reviewed journals. There are very old studies on the prevalence of hearing loss, and current research efforts are directed toward generating updated nationwide prevalence estimates. Recently, interest has been directed toward developing test metrics for central auditory processing disorders (CAPD), both screening and diagnostic. A few hospitals have started newborn hearing screenings, and mass school screenings and treatments for ear disease are being conducted.However, there remains a critical need to raise awareness and expand the implementation of universal newborn hearing screening across hospitals nationwide to facilitate early identification, timely intervention, and effective rehabilitation for children with hearing loss.

{{HTitle|Audiology Charities}}
[https://impactnepal.org.np/#:~:text=IMPACT%20Nepal%20(IN)%20is%20committed,of%20race%2C%20gender%20or%20religion. Impact Nepal (IN)] was established in 1993 with the aim of preventing disability. IN serves throughout Nepal, and specific projects are implemented in the districts of Kathmandu, Rautahat, Parsa, Bara, Saptari, Udayapur, Kailali, Kanchapur, Dhoti, and Dadeldhura.

IMPACT Nepal operates community-based primary ear care programs in several rural districts of Nepal to provide primary and secondary ear care services to the local communities. These community-based activities are targeted towards the prevention of the causes of unwanted ear disease and subsequent hearing loss. Plans are also in place to extend such a program to the far-western region of Nepal. While this program is focused on primary and secondary level ear care, tertiary level ear care is also available to these marginalized communities through mobile ear surgery camps held in or near these districts as well as through the Ear Care Center in Lahan, Siraha district. This hospital is well equipped with facilities for tertiary-level ear care.

Ear Aid Nepal is a non-profit charity organization that was established to promote hearing health care services in Nepal, which include identification, diagnostics, and rehabilitation.

This charity is associated with the [https://www.inf.org/ International Nepal Fellowship (INF)] and is focused on the development of the [https://www.inf.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/background_information_to_ehtc_roles.pdf INF Ear Hospital and Training Center (IEHTC)] in Nepal. This is an establishment that provides hearing health care services for the population of western Nepal.

This organization is continuously educating the people of Nepal regarding the hearing health care system. It is also promoting and funding the research projects. Ear Aid Nepal also organizes free hearing camps in rural areas of Nepal, where the volunteers come and provide the hearing services to the public.

Objectives of this organization include:
* To provide specialist advice to the hospital management team to improve the quality of life of persons with hearing disabilities.
* To educate the public about hearing loss and its impact in order to provide good ear care to individuals in Nepal and the Himalayan region.
* To develop research-based projects related to hearing health care in Nepal.
* To plan an organization model that provides fundraising and then utilizes the money in improving the hearing health care in Nepal.
* To provide help in the organization and construction of the hospital that is proposed by INF.
* To support the INF ear camps providing care to the remote rural population of western Nepal.
* To improve the quality of services to persons with hearing loss in terms of diagnostics and rehabilitation in rural areas.

This organization also performs all kinds of ear surgeries for free in the ear hospital. The aim is to provide all forms of surgery to the ear (Example: the external ear or pinna, the ear canal, ear drum and middle ear, etc.)

Microsurgical operations such as myringoplasty, tympanoplasty, ossiculoplasty, stapedotomy, atticotomy, mastoidectomy, and reconstruction are intended to be routinely available.

INF has been organizing many medical camps in Nepal for over six decades now. These ear camps are usually organized in rural areas. [https://www.earaidnepal.org/ Ear Aid Nepal] has been providing extensive professional support with the help of volunteers and opened the Ear Center in November 2015. Ear Aid Nepal’s principal aims are to support the ear hospital and the ear camp work, people with ear disease and deafness, and particularly those with limited means and poor access to care. This includes training locals, extending the range of services available in the country, and conducting basic and primary care research.

[https://www.shruti.org.np/ Shruthi National Association of Hard of Hearing and Deafened Nepal] was established in Nepal in 2012. This organization is a member of the [https://apcdfoundation.org/asia-pacific-federation-hard-hearing-and-deafened-apfhd Asia-Pacific Federation of the Hard of Hearing and Deafened (APFHD)].

This organization was established to address issues that concern those with hearing disabilities in Nepal. The motto of this organization is to develop an inclusive society with no communication barrier and where those with hearing disabilities live a dignified life.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Bhattarai|first=Neeta Keshary|last2=Bacala|first2=Toni Marie|date=2017-03|title=Promoting Hearing Health Care in Nepal|url=https://journals.lww.com/00025572-201703000-00005|journal=The Hearing Journal|language=en|volume=70|issue=3|pages=22,24|doi=10.1097/01.HJ.0000513794.52052.db|issn=0745-7472}}&lt;/ref&gt;

It has been affiliated with the [https://www.ifhoh.org/ International Federation of the Hard of Hearing] since 2015 and became a member of the Human Rights Treaty Monitoring Coordination Center in 2016.

{{HTitle|Challenges and Opportunity}}
=== Challenges ===
There is a huge lack of awareness about audiology services among different health professionals and the public.  There is also a lack of research in the field of hearing in Nepal, with a limited number of professionals involved in current research.  There is a lack of skilled providers, and these are limited to a few big cities. There is a lack of evidence-based practice and monitoring for unethical practices.

Hearing instruments are expensive, and a cost-effective solution in developing countries should be invented.

Although many private sector practices have state-of-the-art facilities, the practices are not well regulated (especially for hearing aid dispensing), resulting in many unqualified (or poorly trained) individuals practicing. Hence, much effort is needed from NHPC and SHAN to enforce the necessary practice regulations.

Many qualified professionals are leaving the country for better opportunities. This process should be reduced by increasing the number of students, developing new speech and hearing colleges, and expanding to a Master's, PhDs or Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) program.

===Opportunities===
The number of professionals to deliver clinical services and conduct research is insufficient. There is a need to increase the number of jobs in both the government and private sectors and to monitor the quality of services.

There is a need to advocate for inclusive education and special education for children with hearing impairments.

Otolaryngologists use a range of surgical methods for hearing restoration, such as cochlear implants and other implantable hearing aids.

=== '''Scope of Practice and Licensing''' ===

To be an audiologist in Nepal, an individual must have a minimum of an undergraduate degree in Speech and Hearing Science. Undergraduate professionals are trained and educated for the identification of hearing loss at all ages and the assessment and diagnosis of hearing and vestibular disorders by performing behavioral and electrophysiologic measures. These undergraduate professionals are also trained to provide treatments such as amplification devices, assistive listening devices, auditory training, and rehabilitation of vestibular function.

An audiologist with a postgraduate degree is trained to do basic audiological services along with special audiological services like cochlear implant mapping, intraoperative monitoring, vestibular evaluation and management, and tinnitus assessment and management.

The regulatory body has not produced any documentation regarding the scope of practice.

=== Professional ad Regulatory Bodies ===
The [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064855441572 Speech and Hearing Association of Nepal (SHAN)] is the professional and scientific association with over 70 members, while the Nepal Professional Health Council (NHPC) is the regulatory body that regulates training and practice.

The Speech and Hearing Association of Nepal (SHAN) was formed in 1999. It is a professional and scientific association for speech-language pathologists and audiologists in Nepal. Its role is to promote hearing, speech, and language professions and rehabilitation services through advocacy and continuing rehabilitation education (CRE). It is also involved in monitoring professionals, encouraging and supporting research in the field of speech and hearing. SHAN has organized many conferences, CRE opportunities, awareness rallies, and camps.

Currently, there are 63 life members, 29 associate members, and 2 foreign members within the association. Other associations include:

# Cochlear Implant Nepal Group (CING) is a group of otologists, audiologists, speech language pathologists, nurses, pediatricians, and others who are focused on cochlear implant patients in Nepal. This organization strives to raise awareness regarding cochlear implants and obtain government support. CING was able to obtain funding for cochlear implants, where the government bears 50% of the cost of the implant. Even with funding, CIs are a costly option in Nepal and post cochlear implantation rehabilitation services are mainly limited to Kathmandu.
# Society of Otolaryngologists Nepal (SOL) is mainly an association for ENT surgeons in which audiologists and SLPs are associate members.

Every year, SHAN, in collaboration with CING and SOL, organizes events and an awareness program to mark World Hearing Day on the 3rd of March. In addition, SHAN has been actively involved in organizing both national and international conferences to promote professional development and research in audiology and hearing sciences, with the most recent international conference held in 2025 [https://shan.org.np/shan-con-2025/].

The [https://nhpc.gov.np/ Nepal Health Professional Council] (NHPC) is an autonomous body established under the Nepal Health Professional Council Act 2053 (1996). The aim of this council is to register all “health professionals” omitting medical doctors and nurses according to their qualification and bring them into a legal system to make their services effective, timely, and evidence based. The Nepal Professional Health Council (NHPC) has classified professionals in 4 levels: Specialization level (Post Graduated), First level (Undergraduate), and second level (diploma in speech and Hearing) (Nepal Health Professional Council, 2021). NHPC also enforces disciplinary action against unqualified persons delivering health services.

{{HTitle|Research in Audiology}}
Currently, research in the field of audiology is increasing. Most of the research is conducted at the Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital and the [https://gphospital.org/home-page/ Green Pasture Hospital], and the Nepal Speech and Hearing Association (SHAN), along with the Society of Otorhinolaryngology Nepal (SOL), organizes regular scientific conferences to promote scientific activity in the field of ears and hearing in Nepal. The Nepal Health Research Council (NHRC) also supports and governs research activity in Nepal.

Research focused on developing high- and low-frequency speech audiometry test materials and tinnitus and vestibular research. Picture identification tests for children are some of the research topics that are published in national and international peer-reviewed journals. There are very old studies on the prevalence of hearing loss, and current research efforts are directed toward generating updated nationwide prevalence estimates. Recently, interest has been directed toward developing test metrics for central auditory processing disorders (CAPD), both screening and diagnostic. A few hospitals have started newborn hearing screenings, and mass school screenings and treatments for ear disease are being conducted.However, there remains a critical need to raise awareness and expand the implementation of universal newborn hearing screening across hospitals nationwide to facilitate early identification, timely intervention, and effective rehabilitation for children with hearing loss.

{{HTitle|Audiology Charities}}
[https://impactnepal.org.np/#:~:text=IMPACT%20Nepal%20(IN)%20is%20committed,of%20race%2C%20gender%20or%20religion. Impact Nepal (IN)] was established in 1993 with the aim of preventing disability. IN serves throughout Nepal, and specific projects are implemented in the districts of Kathmandu, Rautahat, Parsa, Bara, Saptari, Udayapur, Kailali, Kanchapur, Dhoti, and Dadeldhura.

IMPACT Nepal operates community-based primary ear care programs in several rural districts of Nepal to provide primary and secondary ear care services to the local communities. These community-based activities are targeted towards the prevention of the causes of unwanted ear disease and subsequent hearing loss. Plans are also in place to extend such a program to the far-western region of Nepal. While this program is focused on primary and secondary level ear care, tertiary level ear care is also available to these marginalized communities through mobile ear surgery camps held in or near these districts as well as through the Ear Care Center in Lahan, Siraha district. This hospital is well equipped with facilities for tertiary-level ear care.

Ear Aid Nepal is a non-profit charity organization that was established to promote hearing health care services in Nepal, which include identification, diagnostics, and rehabilitation.

This charity is associated with the [https://www.inf.org/ International Nepal Fellowship (INF)] and is focused on the development of the [https://www.inf.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/background_information_to_ehtc_roles.pdf INF Ear Hospital and Training Center (IEHTC)] in Nepal. This is an establishment that provides hearing health care services for the population of western Nepal.

This organization is continuously educating the people of Nepal regarding the hearing health care system. It is also promoting and funding the research projects. Ear Aid Nepal also organizes free hearing camps in rural areas of Nepal, where the volunteers come and provide the hearing services to the public.

Objectives of this organization include:
* To provide specialist advice to the hospital management team to improve the quality of life of persons with hearing disabilities.
* To educate the public about hearing loss and its impact in order to provide good ear care to individuals in Nepal and the Himalayan region.
* To develop research-based projects related to hearing health care in Nepal.
* To plan an organization model that provides fundraising and then utilizes the money in improving the hearing health care in Nepal.
* To provide help in the organization and construction of the hospital that is proposed by INF.
* To support the INF ear camps providing care to the remote rural population of western Nepal.
* To improve the quality of services to persons with hearing loss in terms of diagnostics and rehabilitation in rural areas.

This organization also performs all kinds of ear surgeries for free in the ear hospital. The aim is to provide all forms of surgery to the ear (Example: the external ear or pinna, the ear canal, ear drum and middle ear, etc.)

Microsurgical operations such as myringoplasty, tympanoplasty, ossiculoplasty, stapedotomy, atticotomy, mastoidectomy, and reconstruction are intended to be routinely available.

INF has been organizing many medical camps in Nepal for over six decades now. These ear camps are usually organized in rural areas. [https://www.earaidnepal.org/ Ear Aid Nepal] has been providing extensive professional support with the help of volunteers and opened the Ear Center in November 2015. Ear Aid Nepal’s principal aims are to support the ear hospital and the ear camp work, people with ear disease and deafness, and particularly those with limited means and poor access to care. This includes training locals, extending the range of services available in the country, and conducting basic and primary care research.

{{HTitle|Challenges and Opportunity}}
=== Challenges ===
There is a huge lack of awareness about audiology services among different health professionals and the public.  There is also a lack of research in the field of hearing in Nepal, with a limited number of professionals involved in current research.  There is a lack of skilled providers, and these are limited to a few big cities. There is a lack of evidence-based practice and monitoring for unethical practices.

Hearing instruments are expensive, and a cost-effective solution in developing countries should be invented.

Although many private sector practices have state-of-the-art facilities, the practices are not well regulated (especially for hearing aid dispensing), resulting in many unqualified (or poorly trained) individuals practicing. Hence, much effort is needed from NHPC and SHAN to enforce the necessary practice regulations.

Many qualified professionals are leaving the country for better opportunities. This process should be reduced by increasing the number of students, developing new speech and hearing colleges, and expanding to a Master's, PhDs or Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) program.

===Opportunities===
The number of professionals to deliver clinical services and conduct research is insufficient. There is a need to increase the number of jobs in both the government and private sectors and to monitor the quality of services.

There is a need to advocate for inclusive education and special education for children with hearing impairments.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China China], officially the People's Republic of China (PRC), is a country in East Asia. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Chinese Standard Chinese], a variety based on the Beijing dialect of Mandarin, is the national language of China, having de facto official status.It is used as a lingua franca between people of different linguistic backgrounds.In addition, there are as many as 292 living languages in China.

{{HTitle|History of Audiology}}
Dr. Ruihua Liu (1891~1963) was the first modern otolaryngologist in China. He compiled China’s first domestic otology monograph, Otology, in 1957, in which he provided an initial introduction to early hearing-assessment methods (e.g., tuning forks and simple speech sounds). Drug-induced deafness was quite common at this time; many hospitals and institutions conducted extensive experimental research on ototoxic drugs to explore mechanisms and preventive measures. Most of these hospitals and institutions were equipped with audiometers and trained their own audiology technicians.

In 1962, the Chinese government established the first hearing aid factory in Tianjin, mainly producing body and early behind-the-ear analog hearing aids—China's main hearing intervention product for a long period of time. However, the practice of audiology in this stage largely aimed to meet the needs of otologic surgery &lt;ref&gt;China Association of Assistive Products. (2022). Audiologist Training Manual (H. Zhang, Ed.). People's Medical Publishing House.&lt;/ref&gt;. Also around this time, acoustic immittance and reflex were introduced into clinical practices around the country &lt;ref name=&quot;Wang2015&quot;&gt;Wang, Y., Li, X., Li, C., &amp; Li, F. (2015). Audiology Development in the Recent 30 Years and Its Demands for Higher Education in China. ''Chinese Scientific Journal of Hearing and Speech Rehabilitation, 1'', 4-7.&lt;/ref&gt;. Two years later in 1964, Professor Yong Zhao compiled China’s first audiology textbook, Introduction to Audiology.

During the decade of 1979-1989, China witnessed the first aural rehabilitation and hearing aid clinic established by Professor Yuancheng Deng and the first rehabilitative institution for pediatric patients - China Rehabilitation Research Center for Hearing and Speech Impairment. These milestones marked the start of rehabilitative Audiology in China &lt;ref name=&quot;Huang2004&quot;&gt;Huang, L., Han, D., &amp; Zhang, H. (2004). The rise of Audiology in China. ''Chinese Medical Digest: Otorhinolaryngology, 19''(4), 210-213.&lt;/ref&gt;.

Also in 1989, Beijing Institute of Otolaryngology pioneered the newborn hearing screening program in China, using auditory brainstem response (ABR) related methods &lt;ref name=&quot;Yu2010&quot;&gt;Yu, L., Yu, Y., &amp; Sun, X.

Audiology Development in the Recent 30 Years and Its Demands for Higher Education in China. ''Chinese Scientific Journal of Hearing and Speech Rehabilitation, 1'', 4-7.&lt;/ref&gt;. Today, CI surgeries are performed at more than 60 hospitals, 10000 cases a year &lt;ref name=&quot;Yao2022&quot;&gt;Yao, X., Liu, H., Si, J., Ding, X., Zhao, Y., &amp; Zheng, Y. (2022).

(2004). Current situation for multichannel cochlear implant in China. ''Chinese Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2'', 70-71.&lt;/ref&gt;. 

The early 2000s saw phased progress and gradual movement toward standardization and regulation. In 2004, the former Ministry of Health’s Vocational Skill Appraisal Center began planning certification for hearing-aid specialist qualifications. In 2007, “hearing-aid specialist” was included as the ninth batch of new occupations in China’s occupational classification. 
In September 2007, the National Occupational Standard for Hearing-aid Specialist was approved and implemented in January 2008. Four levels of hearing-aid specialist were established: National Vocational Qualification Level 4, Level 3, Level 2, and level 1, with level 1 being the most advanced level. The current standard recommends pediatric hearing aid services to be provided only by advanced licensed specialists.  

After years of joint effort by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the China Association of Rehabilitation Aids, the Cochlear Implant Professional Committee, and audiology scholars and practitioners, “audiologist” (听力师, in Chinese) was first included in July 2015 in the Dictionary of Occupational Classification of the People’s Republic of China (occupation code: 2-02-35-03). The establishment of this occupation was a milestone for audiology development in China. It also reflects improvements in public awareness of hearing rehabilitation &lt;ref name=&quot;CAAP2022&quot;&gt;China Association of Assistive Products. (2022). ''Audiologist Training Manual'' (H.

{{HTitle|Incidence and Prevalence of Hearing Loss}}

Based on the grading system from WHO (Olusanya et al., 2019)&lt;ref name=&quot;Olusanya2019&quot;/&gt;, reports from independent groups and China Disabled Persons Federation estimated that there were 100–200 million people with various degrees of hearing loss in 2015–2016.

Hearing loss grades and the International classification of functioning, disability and health. ''Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 97''(10), 725.&lt;/ref&gt;, reports from independent groups and China Disabled Persons Federation estimated that there were 100-200 million people with various degrees of hearing loss in 2015-2016. That is 8% to 14% of 1.37 billion total population &lt;ref name=&quot;Wang2025&quot;&gt;Wang, Y., Xie, Y., Wang, M., Zhao, M., Gong, R., Xin, Y., Ke, J., Zhang, K., Zhang, S., &amp; Du, C. (2025).

{{HTitle|Information About Audiology Education}}
The foundation for audiology education was laid with the initiation of the China–Australia Audiology Education and Training Program in 1996. The early 2000s witnesses the emergence of undergraduate audiology programs at universities such as Capital Medical University and Zhejiang Chinese Medical University. By 2012, the Chinese Ministry of Education formally recognized “Hearing and Speech Rehabilitation” as a distinct field, leading to the establishment of undergraduate programs in 13 universities and 15 colleges. These programs, however, vary in focus. They typically end with a clinical internship in hospital otolaryngology departments, with hearing aid manufacturers, or at hearing aid fitting centers. Although there are Doctor of Philosophy audiology programs, these programs focus on research rather than clinical practice &lt;ref&gt;Wang, S., Mo, C., Zhao, C., Shen, X., &amp; Chen, Y. (2024). Recommendations for Expanding the Clinical Role of Audiologists in Hospitals in Mainland China: Insights From a Survey-Based Study. ''Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups, 9''(4), 1033-1038.&lt;/ref&gt;.

Selected programs (total around 18):
Capital Medical University （Beijing, China)
Shanghai Jiao Tong University (Shanghai, China)
East China Normal University (Shanghai, China)
Zhejiang Chinese Medical University (Hangzhou, China)
Binzhou Medical University (Yantai, China)

One current, major issue is that the Audiology curriculum is largely inconsistent across institutions. Currently, institutions that offer Audiology training structures their curriculum based on their institutional specialty, instead of a national standard. This results in great variability in the quality and scope of training and thus baseline competence &lt;ref name=&quot;Wang2015&quot;&gt;Wang, Y., Li, X., Li, C., &amp; Li, F. (2015). Audiology Development in the Recent 30 Years and Its Demands for Higher Education in China. ''Chinese Scientific Journal of Hearing and Speech Rehabilitation, 1'', 4-7.&lt;/ref&gt;. More concerning is perhaps the reduced professional credibility and accountability in the long term, which would in turn lead to poor student interest, stigma, and lack of monetary and political support. The independence of Audiology as a discipline may also be damaged.

Over the past two decades, teams who went abroad for scholarly visits have published quite extensively on how to learn from established cases in European counties, Australia, and the U.S. Aside from the dire need for the establishment of standards and regulations in Audiology, one common theme across reports was a call to improve student’s practicum training intensity, scope, and quality.Discussed below in the service section, poor autonomy, lack of clear career progression path in the clinical settings, and significant work stress are some obstacles that college recruiters are faced with these days.

{{HTitle|Audiological Services}}
The biggest challenge currently is perhaps the lack of hearing professionals, let alone well-trained audiologists. It is often acknowledged that even in developed countries there is a shortage of professionals, for example, 1963 patients to 1 audiologist in the US, 15178 to 1 in Australia, 26334 to 1 in Britain, 28645 to 1 in Canada. In contrast, in mainland China, it is estimated that there was one audiologist for every 300,000 patients in 2007 &lt;ref&gt;Aungst, R., &amp; Battle, D. E. (2007). Communication Disorders in China: Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology. ''The ASHA Leader Archive, 12''(10), 26–28. https://doi.org/10.1044/leader.WB5.12102007.26 &lt;/ref&gt;. Fast forward to more recent times, the Disabled Persons’ Federation of China released documents in 2023 indicating the country is still at least 100,000 hearing professionals short of its target of 25,000 patients to 1 professional.

A recent study surveyed 162 hearing professionals working in hospital settings &lt;ref&gt;Wang, S., Mo, C., Zhao, C., Shen, X., &amp; Chen, Y. (2024). Recommendations for Expanding the Clinical Role of Audiologists in Hospitals in Mainland China: Insights From a Survey-Based Study. ''Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups, 9''(4), 1033–1038.&lt;/ref&gt;. 89% of the respondents held a bachelor’s degree, and about 10% held a master’s. Results showed that the majority (98.15%) of these clinicians perform hearing assessment as a part of their clinical duty, while only about 7% perform hearing aid or cochlear implant programming. About 40 to 50% of the respondents perform vestibular assessment or therapy. About 40% of the respondents reported having no authority to explain the test results after the assessments. Additionally, the survey nicely showcased several key features consistent with the current Chinese audiological service landscape:

The majority of hospital clinicians mainly participate in hearing assessment works, while having at least a bachelor’s degree. The authors presented a key point that these highly educated (in the context of hearing practice in China) professionals have a limited scope of work that disconnects with their training, which is more comprehensive than mere assessment of hearing &lt;ref name=&quot;Wang2024&quot;&gt;Wang, S., Mo, C., Zhao, C., Shen, X., &amp; Chen, Y. (2024). Recommendations for Expanding the Clinical Role of Audiologists in Hospitals in Mainland China: Insights From a Survey-Based Study. ''Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups, 9''(4), 1033–1038.&lt;/ref&gt;.

Only a very small portion of hospital clinicians are involved with hearing device services. This is consistent with the fact that many Chinese hospitals do not directly dispense hearing aids. However, over recent years, many tertiary hospitals (top tier) have established hearing service centers. Additional major dispensing channels include private hearing aid service centers, pharmacies, government-owned rehabilitation and assistive device centers, and online retailers &lt;ref&gt;Huang, Z. (2025). ''China Audio Industry Report (Hearing-aid, Hearing Assistive Technologies, and Hearing Healthcare)''.&lt;/ref&gt;. The services provided at these places can be variable, with tertiary hospitals usually providing the most comprehensive services from hearing loss diagnosis to hearing aid and cochlear implant programming and follow-up. As of 2024, there are about 20,000 commercial hearing aid service centers across China.Currently cochlear implant programming services are mostly being offered by major hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and manufacturer (e.g., Cochlear) authorized service centers. Some major hospitals train their own cochlear implant specialists.

Expansion of the scope of work for clinical audiologists with proper training may ease the immense pressure on otolaryngologists. ENT doctors working at tertiary-level hospitals in larger cities, which are classified as the highest tier within the national health care system, may see 80–120 patients daily &lt;ref&gt;Zheng, H., Wong, L. L., &amp; Hickson, L. (2023). Barriers to hearing aid adoption among older adults in mainland China. ''International Journal of Audiology, 62''(9), 814–825.&lt;/ref&gt;. This inevitably reduces consultation times. Perhaps, this struggle partially contributed to the finding that only 33% of the patients diagnosed with hearing loss proceeded to discuss hearing aids with an ENT doctor, and that only 21% of the patients who were recommended hearing aids eventually purchased one &lt;ref&gt;The European Hearing Instrument Manufacturers Association. (2020). ''ChinaTrak''.&lt;/ref&gt;.

The ChinaTrak 2020 report also indicates a concerning 10% hearing aid adoption rate among people with hearing loss &lt;ref name=&quot;EHIMA2020&quot;&gt;The European Hearing Instrument Manufacturers Association. (2020). ''ChinaTrak''.&lt;/ref&gt;. Some major drivers of the low adoption rate may be the high expense of hearing aids, variable consultation and fitting expertise &lt;ref name=&quot;Zheng2023&quot;&gt;Zheng, H., Wong, L. L., &amp; Hickson, L. (2023). Barriers to hearing aid adoption among older adults in mainland China. ''International Journal of Audiology, 62''(9), 814–825.&lt;/ref&gt;, and public awareness of hearing loss. Among hearing aid users, while the majority (70%) of participants reported that they gathered hearing aid-related information from ENT doctors or audiologists, a good amount (34%) of respondents got their information by directly entering a hearing aid store. Another interesting finding is that almost half (~42%) of participants reported that the hearing aid dispenser being friendly is most important when deciding on the purchase. All of these findings echo the need for sufficient time for consultation of hearing loss and hearing interventions. There is a real need for patients to be able to sit down and talk to their hearing professionals. As pointed out in Wang et al. (2024) &lt;ref name=&quot;Wang2024&quot;/&gt;, perhaps proper expansion of clinical duties of qualified audiologists in the hospital is a reasonable solution.

{{HTitle|Professional and Regulatory Bodies}}
There is no standardized, nationally regulated audiologist credential in China and no professional body possessing comparable regulatory authority. Credentialing is typically managed by individual universities or hospital-based training programs &lt;ref&gt;Pang, C., Shi, L., Shu, Y., &amp; Li, Y. (2025). Reimagining Audiology in China: Insights from the United States Model. ''Scilight Press, 1'', 5-6.&lt;/ref&gt;.

Hearing aid dispenser (Levels 1-4) license covers audiologic testing, hearing aid programming and related services. The entry level (level 3 and 4) licensure requires only a high school diploma and education through a trade school. Promotion to higher levels requires different amount of work experience. The initial license application as well as subsequent promotion requires a written exam as well as a practical exam.

{{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/RICH-1849}}

'''CORO'NA''' ({{lang|grc|στέφανος, κορωνίς}}). A ''wreath, garland'', or ''chaplet'', made of real or artificial flowers, leaves, &amp;c., worn as an ornament upon the head; but not as a ''crown'' in our sense of the word, i. e. as an emblem of royalty; for amongst the ancients, a diadem (''[[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Diadema|diadema]]'') occupied the place of the modern crown. Of these there were a great many varieties, distinguished by the different materials or the designs in which they were made, and chiefly employed as rewards for public virtue, or ornaments for festive occasions. Under these two divisions, the principal ''coronae'' are enumerated in the following paragraphs:{{mdash}}

1. ''Corona triumphalis''. The ''triumphal crown''; of which there were three several kinds. (1.) ''A wreath of laurel leaves without the berries'' (Aul. Gell. v. 6. 1. Plin. ''H. N.'' xv. 39.), worn by the general during his [[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Triumphus|triumph]] in the manner shown by the {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=annexed bust |imagelink=Media:Corona 1.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 205.jpg|annexed bust |caption=Corona/1.1}} of Antoninus, from an engraved gem. This being esteemed the most honourable of the three, was expressely designated ''laurea insignis''. (Liv. vii. 13.) (2.) A ''crown of gold'' made in imitation of laurel leaves, which was held over the head of the general during the triumph by a public officer (''servus publicus'', Juv. x. 41.) appointed for the purpose, and in the manner shown by the {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=illustration |imagelink=Media:Corona 1.2 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 205.jpg|illustration |caption=Corona/1.2}}, from a bas-relief on the [[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Arcus|Arch]] of Titus, representing that emperor in his triumphal car at the procession for the conquest of Jerusalem, in which a winged figure of Victory poetically performs the part of the public officer. (3.) A crown of gold, and of considerable value, but merely sent as a present to the general who had obtained a triumph (Plut. ''Paul. Aemil.'' 34.), from the different provinces, whence it is expressely called ''provincialis''. Tertull. ''Coron. Mil.'' 13.

2. ''Corona ovalis''. A chaplet of ''myrtle'' worn by a general who had obtained the honour of an ovation. Aul. Gell. v. 6. Festus, ''s. v.''

3. ''Corona oleagina''. A wreath of ''olive leaves'', which was conferred upon the soldiery, as well as their commanders, and was appropriated as a reward for those through whose counsels or instrumentality a triumph had been obtained, though they were not themselves present in the action. Aul. Gell. v. 6.

4. ''Corona obsidionalis''. A garland of ''grass and wild flowers'', whence also termed ''graminea'' (Liv. vii. 37.), gathered on the spot where a Roman army had been besieged, and presented by that army to the commander who had come to their relief, and broken the siege. Though the least in point of value, this was regarded as the most honourable of all the military rewards, and the most difficult to be obtained. Aul. Gell. v. 6. Festus, ''s. v.'' Plin. xxii. 4.

5. ''Corona civica''. The ''civic crown''; a chaplet of ''oak leaves with the acorns'', presented to the Roman soldier who had saved the life of a comrade in battle, and slain his opponent. It was originally presented by the rescued comrade, and latterly by the emperor. (Plin. ''H. N.'' xvi. 3. Aul. Gell. v. 6. Tac. ''Ann.'' xv. 12.) The {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=illustration |imagelink=Media:Corona 5.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 206.jpg|illustration |caption=Corona/5.1}} is from a [[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Pictura|painting]] at Pompeii, representing a young warrior with the civic wreath.

6. ''Corona muralis''. The ''mural crown''; decorated with the towers and turrets of a battlement, and given as a reward of valour to the soldier who was first in scaling the walls of a besieged city. (Liv. xxvi. 48. Aul. Gell. v. 6.) The character of this crown is known from the representations of the goddess Cybele, to whom it was ascribed by poets and artists, in order to typify the cities of the earth over which she presided. (Lucret. ii. 607{{mdash}}610. Ov. ''Fast.'' iv. 219.) The {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=example |imagelink=Media:Corona 6.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 206.jpg|example |caption=Corona/6.1}} is from a bas-relief found in a [[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Sepulcrum|sepulchre]] near Rome.

7. ''Corona castrensis'', or ''vallaris''. A crown of gold, ornamented with palisades (''[[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Vallum|vallum]]''), and bestowed upon the soldier who first surmounted the stockade, and forced an entrance into an enemy's camp. (Aul. Gell. v. 6. Val. Max. i. 8. 6.) Of this no authentic specimen exists.

8. ''Corona classica, navalis'', or ''rostrata''. A chaplet of gold designed to imitate the beaks of ships (''[[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Rostrum|rostra]]''), and presented to the admiral who had destroyed a hostile fleet, and, perhaps, also to the sailor who was the first to board an enemy's vessel. (Paterc. ii. 81. Virg. ''Aen.'' viii. 684. Plin. ''H. N.'' It is represented in the {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=annexed wood-cut |imagelink=Media:Corona 8.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 206.jpg|annexed wood-cut |caption=Corona/8.1}}, on the head of Agrippa, from a bronze medal.

9. ''Corona radiata''. The ''radiated crown''; set round with projecting rays, and properly assigned to the gods or deified heroes; whence it was generally assumed by the Roman emperors, and by some other persons who affected the attributes of divinity. (Stat. ''Theb.'' 1. 28.) Its character is shown in the {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=annexed illustration |imagelink=Media:Corona 9.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 206.jpg|annexed illustration |caption=Corona/9.1}}, on the head of Augustus, from one of the Marlborough gems.

10. ''Corona pactilis, plectilis'', or ''plexilis''. A festive garland worn merely as an ornament round the head, and composed of natural flowers with their leves adhering to the stalks, by which they were twisted and twined together, as in the {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=annexed illustration |imagelink=Media:Corona 10.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 207.jpg|annexed illustration |caption=Corona/10.1}}, representing a personification of Spring, from a marble bas-relief. Plin. ''H. N.'' xxi. 8. Aul. Gell. xviii. 2. Plaut. ''Bacch.'' 1. 1. 37.

11. ''Corona sutilis''. An ornamental garland for the head, made of flowers plucked from their stalks, and sewed together. It was the one worn by the [[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Salii|Salii]] at their festivals; and was originally composed of flowers of any description, but subsequently of the rose alone, the choicest leaves being selected from each blossom, and then sewn together. (Plin. ''H. N.'' xxi. 8.) It is represented in the {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=annexed engraving |imagelink=Media:Corona 11.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 207.jpg|annexed engraving |caption=Corona/11.1}}, on the head of a Roman empress, from an engraved gem.

12. ''Corona natalitia''. A wreath of laurel, ivy, or parsely, which the Romans were in the custom of suspending over the door of a house in which a birth had taken place, in the same way as the natives of Holland put up a rosette of lace upon similar occasions. Bartholin. ''de Puerp.'' p. 127. Compare Juv. ''Sat.'' ix. 85.

13. ''Corona longa'' ({{lang|grc|ὑποθυμίς, ὑποθυμιάς}}). A ''long wreath'' or ''festoon'' of flowers hung over the neck and chest, in the same way as the ''rosary'', of which it was the probable original, the rosary being still called &quot;''la corona''&quot; by the modern Italians; but, amongst the Greeks and Romans, it appears to have been more particularly employed as a festive decoration, and was used to ornament buildings as well as persons. (Ovid. ''Fast.'' iv. 738. Cic. ''Leg.'' ii. 24.) The {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=illustration |imagelink=Media:Corona 13.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 207.jpg|illustration |caption=Corona/13.1}} is from an ivory carving in the Florentine Gallery, supposed to represent M. Antony in the costume of a follower of Bacchus, and resembles exactly the description which Cicero gives of Verres, with a chaplet on his head, and a garland round his neck{{mdash}}''ipse autem coronam habebat unam in capite, alteram in collo.'' ''Verr.'' ii. 5. 11.

14. A ''cornice'', or projecting member, used to decorate walls, either as a finish on the top (see the next illustration), or for the purpose of making ornamental divisions on any part of the surface. Vitruv. v. 2. Id. vii. 3. 4. Plin. ''H. N.'' xxxvi. 59.

15. A particular ''member of the cornice'', which {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=crowns |imagelink=Media:Corona 15.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 207.jpg|crowns |caption=Corona/15.1}} an entablature under the roof, still called by our architects the ''corona''. It is that particular member which has a broad flat face situated between the ''[[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Sima|cyma recta]]'' above, and the ''[[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Cymatium|cymatium]]'', or bed moulding, below, from which it has a bold projection. (Vitruv. iv. 3. 6.) The Roman architects, unlike ours, do not appear to have appropriated any distinct word to express collectively all the members of which a cornice is composed; consequently, they did not regard the cornice as an entire portion of an entablature, but as several distinct members, which are always enumerated separately: viz. the ''[[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Sima|sima]]; cymatium in summo; corona; cymatium in imo''. Hesychius, however, uses the Greek {{lang|grc|κορωνίς}} in a collective sense, as equivalent to our ''cornice''.

A festive garland worn merely as an ornament round the head, and composed of natural flowers with their leves adhering to the stalks, by which they were twisted and twined together, as in the {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=annexed illustration |imagelink=Media:Corona 10.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 207.jpg|annexed illustration |caption=Corona/10.1}}, representing a personification of Spring, from a marble bas-relief. Plin. ''H. N.'' xxi. 8. Aul. Gell. xviii. 2. Plaut. ''Bacch.'' 1. 1. 37.

11. ''Corona sutilis''. An ornamental garland for the head, made of flowers plucked from their stalks, and sewed together. It was the one worn by the [[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Salii|Salii]] at their festivals; and was originally composed of flowers of any description, but subsequently of the rose alone, the choicest leaves being selected from each blossom, and then sewn together. (Plin. ''H. N.'' xxi. 8.) It is represented in the {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=annexed engraving |imagelink=Media:Corona 11.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 207.jpg|annexed engraving |caption=Corona/11.1}}, on the head of a Roman empress, from an engraved gem.

12. ''Corona natalitia''. A wreath of laurel, ivy, or parsley, which the Romans were in the custom of suspending over the door of a house in which a birth had taken place, in the same way as the natives of Holland put up a rosette of lace upon similar occasions. Bartholin. ''de Puerp.'' p. 127. Compare Juv. ''Sat.'' ix. 85.

13. ''Corona longa'' ({{lang|grc|ὑποθυμίς, ὑποθυμιάς}}). A ''long wreath'' or ''festoon'' of flowers hung over the neck and chest, in the same way as the ''rosary'', of which it was the probable original, the rosary being still called &quot;''la corona''&quot; by the modern Italians; but, amongst the Greeks and Romans, it appears to have been more particularly employed as a festive decoration, and was used to ornament buildings as well as persons. (Ovid. ''Fast.'' iv. 738. Cic. ''Leg.'' ii. 24.) The {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=illustration |imagelink=Media:Corona 13.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 207.jpg|illustration |caption=Corona/13.1}} is from an ivory carving in the Florentine Gallery, supposed to represent M. Antony in the costume of a follower of Bacchus, and resembles exactly the description which Cicero gives of Verres, with a chaplet on his head, and a garland round his neck{{mdash}}''ipse autem coronam habebat unam in capite, alteram in collo.'' ''Verr.'' ii. 5. 11.

14. A ''cornice'', or projecting member, used to decorate walls, either as a finish on the top (see the next illustration), or for the purpose of making ornamental divisions on any part of the surface. Vitruv. v. 2. Id. vii. 3. 4. Plin. ''H. N.'' xxxvi. 59.

15. A particular ''member of the cornice'', which {{Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Image Location|text=crowns |imagelink=Media:Corona 15.1 - Anthony Rich, Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon, p. 207.jpg|crowns |caption=Corona/15.1}} an entablature under the roof, still called by our architects the ''corona''. It is that particular member which has a broad flat face situated between the ''[[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Sima|cyma recta]]'' above, and the ''[[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Cymatium|cymatium]]'', or bed moulding, below, from which it has a bold projection. (Vitruv. iv. 3. 6.) The Roman architects, unlike ours, do not appear to have appropriated any distinct word to express collectively all the members of which a cornice is composed; consequently, they did not regard the cornice as an entire portion of an entablature, but as several distinct members, which are always enumerated separately: viz. the ''[[Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Sima|sima]]; cymatium in summo; corona; cymatium in imo''. Hesychius, however, uses the Greek {{lang|grc|κορωνίς}} in a collective sense, as equivalent to our ''cornice''.

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;. Living systematic reviews exists to address this common problem&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2019/05/14/the-death-of-the-literature-review-and-the-rise-of-the-dynamic-knowledge-map/&lt;/ref&gt;. It is therefore particularly useful in rapidly evolving fields of research&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;, such as just transition.

The living review method relevant for just transition because it includes topic such as energy democracy which necessitate transdisciplinarity and consolidation of fragmented literature&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

===  Definitions of just transition : ===
* «a fair and equitable process of moving towards a post-carbon society’. »&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=McCauley|first=Darren|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|date=2018-08-01|title=Just transition: Integrating climate, energy and environmental justice|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q129947262|journal=Energy Policy|language=English|volume=119|pages=1–7|doi=10.1016/J.ENPOL.2018.04.014}}&lt;/ref&gt;.


The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. However, scholars have broadened the use of this term to develop frameworks for analysing issues of fairness in these transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. The concept of just transition can be used to bridge various bodies of scholarship : climate justice, environmental justiceand energy justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Xinxin|last2=Lo|first2=Kevin|date=2021-12-01|title=Just transition: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137209041|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=82|pages=102291|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102291}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545572|title=What is the “Just Transition”?|last=Heffron|first=Raphael J.|date=2021-01-01|pages=9–19|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; and take into account various aspects of justice including distributional justice, procedural justice, restorative justice, recognition justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. 
 
=== Definition of Procedural justice ===
Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.     

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. For now, only very common indicators have dedicated properties such as {{Wikidata entity link|P2131}}. Including energy data in Wikidata would require discussing with the community the creation of new properties.

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;. Living systematic reviews exists to address this common problem&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2019/05/14/the-death-of-the-literature-review-and-the-rise-of-the-dynamic-knowledge-map/&lt;/ref&gt;.

The living review method relevant for just transition because it includes topic such as energy democracy which necessitate transdisciplinarity and consolidation of fragmented literature&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

===  Definitions of just transition : ===
* «a fair and equitable process of moving towards a post-carbon society’. »&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=McCauley|first=Darren|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|date=2018-08-01|title=Just transition: Integrating climate, energy and environmental justice|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q129947262|journal=Energy Policy|language=English|volume=119|pages=1–7|doi=10.1016/J.ENPOL.2018.04.014}}&lt;/ref&gt;.


The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. However, scholars have broadened the use of this term to develop frameworks for analysing issues of fairness in these transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. The concept of just transition can be used to bridge various bodies of scholarship : climate justice, environmental justiceand energy justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Xinxin|last2=Lo|first2=Kevin|date=2021-12-01|title=Just transition: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137209041|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=82|pages=102291|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102291}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545572|title=What is the “Just Transition”?|last=Heffron|first=Raphael J.|date=2021-01-01|pages=9–19|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; and take into account various aspects of justice including distributional justice, procedural justice, restorative justice, recognition justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. 
 
=== Definition of Procedural justice ===
Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.     

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;. Living systematic reviews exists to address this common problem&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2019/05/14/the-death-of-the-literature-review-and-the-rise-of-the-dynamic-knowledge-map/&lt;/ref&gt;.

The living review method relevant for just transition because it includes topic such as energy democracy which necessitate transdisciplinarity and consolidation of fragmented literature&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

===  Definitions of just transition : ===
* «a fair and equitable process of moving towards a post-carbon society’. »&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=McCauley|first=Darren|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|date=2018-08-01|title=Just transition: Integrating climate, energy and environmental justice|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q129947262|journal=Energy Policy|language=English|volume=119|pages=1–7|doi=10.1016/J.ENPOL.2018.04.014}}&lt;/ref&gt;.


The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. However, scholars have broadened the use of this term to develop frameworks for analysing issues of fairness in these transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. The concept of just transition can be used to bridge various bodies of scholarship : climate justice, environmental justiceand energy justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Xinxin|last2=Lo|first2=Kevin|date=2021-12-01|title=Just transition: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137209041|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=82|pages=102291|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102291}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545572|title=What is the “Just Transition”?|last=Heffron|first=Raphael J.|date=2021-01-01|pages=9–19|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; and take into account various aspects of justice including distributional justice, procedural justice, restorative justice, recognition justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. 
 
=== Definition of Procedural justice ===
Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.     

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;. Living systematic reviews exists to address this common problem&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2019/05/14/the-death-of-the-literature-review-and-the-rise-of-the-dynamic-knowledge-map/&lt;/ref&gt;.

===  Definitions of just transition : ===
* «a fair and equitable process of moving towards a post-carbon society’. »&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=McCauley|first=Darren|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|date=2018-08-01|title=Just transition: Integrating climate, energy and environmental justice|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q129947262|journal=Energy Policy|language=English|volume=119|pages=1–7|doi=10.1016/J.ENPOL.2018.04.014}}&lt;/ref&gt;.


The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. However, scholars have broadened the use of this term to develop frameworks for analysing issues of fairness in these transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. The concept of just transition can be used to bridge various bodies of scholarship : climate justice, environmental justiceand energy justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Xinxin|last2=Lo|first2=Kevin|date=2021-12-01|title=Just transition: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137209041|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=82|pages=102291|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102291}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545572|title=What is the “Just Transition”?|last=Heffron|first=Raphael J.|date=2021-01-01|pages=9–19|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; and take into account various aspects of justice including distributional justice, procedural justice, restorative justice, recognition justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. 
 
=== Definition of Procedural justice ===
Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.     

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

==== Main subjects ====
We first read the articles abstracts and listed relevant topics and their Wikidata ID in a shared spreadsheet. These topics were :

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;. Living systematic reviews exists to address this common problem&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2019/05/14/the-death-of-the-literature-review-and-the-rise-of-the-dynamic-knowledge-map/&lt;/ref&gt;.

===  Definitions of just transition : ===
* «a fair and equitable process of moving towards a post-carbon society’. »&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=McCauley|first=Darren|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|date=2018-08-01|title=Just transition: Integrating climate, energy and environmental justice|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q129947262|journal=Energy Policy|language=English|volume=119|pages=1–7|doi=10.1016/J.ENPOL.2018.04.014}}&lt;/ref&gt;.


The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. However, scholars have broadened the use of this term to develop frameworks for analysing issues of fairness in these transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. The concept of just transition can be used to bridge various bodies of scholarship : climate justice, environmental justiceand energy justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Xinxin|last2=Lo|first2=Kevin|date=2021-12-01|title=Just transition: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137209041|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=82|pages=102291|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102291}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545572|title=What is the “Just Transition”?|last=Heffron|first=Raphael J.|date=2021-01-01|pages=9–19|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; and take into account various aspects of justice including distributional justice, procedural justice, restorative justice, recognition justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. 
 
=== Definition of Procedural justice ===
Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy

To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;.

The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.

Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;.

=== Definition of Procedural justice ===
Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.     

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

=== Knowledge modelling ===

In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;. Living systematic reviews exists to address this common problem&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2019/05/14/the-death-of-the-literature-review-and-the-rise-of-the-dynamic-knowledge-map/&lt;/ref&gt;. It is therefore particularly useful in rapidly evolving fields of research&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;, such as just transition.

Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;.

* «a fair and equitable process of moving towards a post-carbon society’. »&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=McCauley|first=Darren|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|date=2018-08-01|title=Just transition: Integrating climate, energy and environmental justice|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q129947262|journal=Energy Policy|language=English|volume=119|pages=1–7|doi=10.1016/J.ENPOL.2018.04.014}}&lt;/ref&gt;.


The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. However, scholars have broadened the use of this term to develop frameworks for analysing issues of fairness in these transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. The concept of just transition can be used to bridge various bodies of scholarship : climate justice, environmental justiceand energy justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Xinxin|last2=Lo|first2=Kevin|date=2021-12-01|title=Just transition: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137209041|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=82|pages=102291|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102291}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545572|title=What is the “Just Transition”?|last=Heffron|first=Raphael J.|date=2021-01-01|pages=9–19|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; and take into account various aspects of justice including distributional justice, procedural justice, restorative justice, recognition justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

|}

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected.

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;. Living systematic reviews exists to address this common problem&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2019/05/14/the-death-of-the-literature-review-and-the-rise-of-the-dynamic-knowledge-map/&lt;/ref&gt;. It is therefore particularly useful in rapidly evolving fields of research&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;, such as just transition.

[[Large language models]] (LLM) are &quot;on the rise&quot; (2025), but &quot;not yet ready for use&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Lieberum |first=Judith-Lisa |last2=Toews |first2=Markus |last3=Metzendorf |first3=Maria-Inti |last4=Heilmeyer |first4=Felix |last5=Siemens |first5=Waldemar |last6=Haverkamp |first6=Christian |last7=Böhringer |first7=Daniel |last8=Meerpohl |first8=Joerg J. |last9=Eisele-Metzger |first9=Angelika |date=2025-05 |title=Large language models for conducting systematic reviews: on the rise, but not yet ready for use—a scoping review |url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545593|journal=Journal of Clinical Epidemiology |language=en |volume=181 |pages=111746 |doi=10.1016/j.jclinepi.2025.111746}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

The living review method relevant for just transition because it includes topic such as energy democracy which necessitate transdisciplinarity and consolidation of fragmented literature&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

===  Definitions of just transition : ===
* «a fair and equitable process of moving towards a post-carbon society’. »&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=McCauley|first=Darren|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|date=2018-08-01|title=Just transition: Integrating climate, energy and environmental justice|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q129947262|journal=Energy Policy|language=English|volume=119|pages=1–7|doi=10.1016/J.ENPOL.2018.04.014}}&lt;/ref&gt;.


The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. However, scholars have broadened the use of this term to develop frameworks for analysing issues of fairness in these transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. The concept of just transition can be used to bridge various bodies of scholarship : climate justice, environmental justiceand energy justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Xinxin|last2=Lo|first2=Kevin|date=2021-12-01|title=Just transition: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137209041|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=82|pages=102291|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102291}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545572|title=What is the “Just Transition”?|last=Heffron|first=Raphael J.|date=2021-01-01|pages=9–19|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; and take into account various aspects of justice including distributional justice, procedural justice, restorative justice, recognition justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. 
 
=== Definition of Procedural justice ===
Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.     

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

|}

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

==== Main subjects ====
We first read the articles abstracts and listed relevant topics and their Wikidata ID in a shared spreadsheet. These topics were :

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;. Living systematic reviews exists to address this common problem&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2019/05/14/the-death-of-the-literature-review-and-the-rise-of-the-dynamic-knowledge-map/&lt;/ref&gt;.

The living review method relevant for just transition because it includes topic such as energy democracy which necessitate transdisciplinarity and consolidation of fragmented literature&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

===  Definitions of just transition : ===
* «a fair and equitable process of moving towards a post-carbon society’. »&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=McCauley|first=Darren|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|date=2018-08-01|title=Just transition: Integrating climate, energy and environmental justice|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q129947262|journal=Energy Policy|language=English|volume=119|pages=1–7|doi=10.1016/J.ENPOL.2018.04.014}}&lt;/ref&gt;.


The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. However, scholars have broadened the use of this term to develop frameworks for analysing issues of fairness in these transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. The concept of just transition can be used to bridge various bodies of scholarship : climate justice, environmental justiceand energy justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Xinxin|last2=Lo|first2=Kevin|date=2021-12-01|title=Just transition: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137209041|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=82|pages=102291|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102291}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545572|title=What is the “Just Transition”?|last=Heffron|first=Raphael J.|date=2021-01-01|pages=9–19|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; and take into account various aspects of justice including distributional justice, procedural justice, restorative justice, recognition justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. 
 
=== Definition of Procedural justice ===
Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.     

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

==== Main subjects ====
We first read the articles abstracts and listed relevant topics and their Wikidata ID in a shared spreadsheet. These topics were :

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;. Living systematic reviews exists to address this common problem&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2019/05/14/the-death-of-the-literature-review-and-the-rise-of-the-dynamic-knowledge-map/&lt;/ref&gt;.

===  Definitions of just transition : ===
* «a fair and equitable process of moving towards a post-carbon society’. »&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=McCauley|first=Darren|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|date=2018-08-01|title=Just transition: Integrating climate, energy and environmental justice|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q129947262|journal=Energy Policy|language=English|volume=119|pages=1–7|doi=10.1016/J.ENPOL.2018.04.014}}&lt;/ref&gt;.


The concept of just transition originated from global trade unions in the 1980s to promote green jobs creation as a key element of sustainability transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. However, scholars have broadened the use of this term to develop frameworks for analysing issues of fairness in these transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;. The concept of just transition can be used to bridge various bodies of scholarship : climate justice, environmental justiceand energy justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Wang|first=Xinxin|last2=Lo|first2=Kevin|date=2021-12-01|title=Just transition: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137209041|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=82|pages=102291|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102291}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134545572|title=What is the “Just Transition”?|last=Heffron|first=Raphael J.|date=2021-01-01|pages=9–19|language=English}}&lt;/ref&gt; and take into account various aspects of justice including distributional justice, procedural justice, restorative justice, recognition justice&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. 
 
=== Definition of Procedural justice ===
Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.     

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

=== Definition of living review ===
The concept of living systematic reviews is recent (2014), so the definition has been regularly reworked&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;&gt;{{Cite Q |Q40040379 }}&lt;/ref&gt;. Living systematic reviews complement the older concept of [[literature review]]. Its objective is the same : obtain an accurate overview of the state of scientific knowledge on a subject&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal |last=Akl |first=Elie A. |last2=Meerpohl |first2=Joerg J. |last3=Elliott |first3=Julian |last4=Kahale |first4=Lara A. |last5=Schünemann |first5=Holger J. |last6=Agoritsas |first6=Thomas |last7=Hilton |first7=John |last8=Perron |first8=Caroline |last9=Akl |first9=Elie |last10=Hodder |first10=Rebecca |last11=Pestridge |first11=Charlotte |last12=Albrecht |first12=Lauren |last13=Horsley |first13=Tanya |last14=Platt |first14=Joanne |last15=Armstrong |first15=Rebecca |date=2017-11 |title=Living systematic reviews: 4.

A traditional review may be obsolete by the time it is published, as new studies have emerged between the submission of the manuscript and its publication&lt;ref name=&quot;Why1&quot;/&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;Why4&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt;.

Procedural justice is about the fairness of decision-making processes related to transitions&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; such as the inclusion of those impacted by these decisions&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Stark|first=Anthony|last2=Gale|first2=Fred|last3=Murphy-Gregory|first3=Hannah|date=2023-05-05|title=Just Transitions’ Meanings: A Systematic Review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210229|journal=Society and Natural Resources|volume=36|issue=10|pages=1277–1297|doi=10.1080/08941920.2023.2207166}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Procedural justice can include issues of community and citizen participation in decision making, their political representation their consultation or the integration of their knowledge, with a focus on neglected population (indigenous people, women, gender and ethnic minorities&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jenkins|first=Kirsten|last2=McCauley|first2=Darren|last3=Heffron|first3=Raphael|last4=Stephan|first4=Hannes|last5=Rehner|first5=Robert|date=2016-01-01|title=Energy justice: A conceptual review|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137210566|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=11|pages=174–182|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2015.10.004}}&lt;/ref&gt;. For example, the participation of affected communities in decisions related to the construction of new infrastructures&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;.     

== Methodology ==

=== Wikidata and the semantic web ===&lt;!-- Add introduction to what wikidata is and how the triplet works in a pedagogical manner
 --&gt;

=== Database search ===
We conducted preliminary searches in various databases including Web of science, Go Triple, Dimensions and OpenAlex. Web of Science was the database offering the most relevant restults and included the possibility to filter results to display only litterature reviews. Articles metadata were exported (in .ris format) and then imported into the reference manager software Zotero.

=== Article screening ===
Articles abstract were then screened and we selected only articles which were litterature reviews focusing on concepts related to procedural justice as their main topics. We excluded article which were 

* Not related to sustainability transition (e.g. sustainable shift in..., hard science papers...)
* Not literature reviews (e.g. review of policies, initiatives, cases, review notes, book review...)
* Not related to procedural justice but to participation into markets, participation in eco-friendly behaviors or included justice consideration only in “future research” suggestions
* Discussing participatory research methodologies (e.g. participatory modelling) without approaching it as an issue of justice, power or democracy
* Discussing procedural justice concepts as key variables or key results without it being the main focus of the paper

=== Importing selected articles into Wikidata ===
To import the selected articles meta-data into Wikidata, we first ran [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 a script] to check if any article was already present in the database. Next we used [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/90acdc3eac4109830db1b3ab855fcb24 another script] that checks the ISSN of the publication in Wikidata and add P-Q-pairs in the extra field of Zotero. Then we exported the articles data using the &quot;export to Wikidata QuickStatements&quot; function of Zotero and use the QuickStatements tool to add them to Wikidata.

Next we used the [[wikidata:Wikidata:Zotero/Cita|Cita]] (V1.0.0-beta.17) Zotero add-on to add articles QID in Zotero. At this point we identified that duplicates had been created in Wikidata (possibly because the initial [https://gist.github.com/zuphilip/aa9f59271fcb0807fb20c7d0110d26e4 script] did not work that well  because of the recent [[wikidata:Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_graph_split|Graph Split]] on Wikidata). We merged duplicates on wikidata using the [[wikidata:Help:Merge|&quot;Merge&quot; gadget]] on Wikidata. We checked manually for duplicated statments in those items.

=== Article classification through meta-data enrichement ===&lt;!-- Add : What is meta-data enrichement --&gt;

Existing review try to classify existing articles according to various criteria such as industry focus, academic discipline, geography of research sites (countries), stakeholder focus (community, consumer, worker...), type of study (case study, theory development) or methodology (quantitative, qualitative, mixt).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; We selected the most relevant properties in Wikidata to reflect these classifications : {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} to describe what the article is about, {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} to describe its main methodology/research design and {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe its geographical focus.

Then, for each article, we inferred what the {{Wikidata entity link|P921}} was from the abstracts and author provided keywords.

==== Study types ====
Our review included only litterature reviews. We first read abstracts to identify all the [https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builder/?item=Q2412849&amp;property=P279&amp;mode=reverse different types of litterature reviews] present in the corpus and created wikidata items which did not exist, for example {{Wikidata entity link|Q137209848}} and {{Wikidata entity link|Q137174203}}. We improved these method items using the methodological references cited in the reviewed papers. The types of reviews were :

Then, we added the {{Wikidata entity link|P8363}} of each articles based on the abstract and method sections. In case of doubt, we compared our interpretation.

==== Research site ====
When an article had a specific geographical focus, we used the property {{Wikidata entity link|P6153}} to describe it. For example, the article &quot;{{Wikidata entity link|Q137901202}}&quot; focused on {{Wikidata entity link|Q132959}}.

=== Knowledge modelling ===
Concept maps can be a powerful literature review tool&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Lewis|first=John Kennedy|date=2016|title=Using ATLAS.ti to Facilitate Data Analysis for a Systematic Review of Leadership Competencies in the Completion of a Doctoral Dissertation|url=https://www.ssrn.com/abstract=2850726|journal=SSRN Electronic Journal|language=en|doi=10.2139/ssrn.2850726|issn=1556-5068}}&lt;/ref&gt; allowing to synthetize theoretical statements about relationship between concepts&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Panniers|first=Teresa L|last2=Feuerbach|first2=Renee Daiuta|last3=Soeken|first3=Karen L|date=2003-08-01|title=Methods in informatics: using data derived from a systematic review of health care texts to develop a concept map for use in the neonatal intensive care setting|url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046403000911|journal=Journal of Biomedical Informatics|series=Building Nursing Knowledge through Informatics: From Concept Representation to Data Mining|volume=36|issue=4|pages=232–239|doi=10.1016/j.jbi.2003.09.010|issn=1532-0464}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In the present study, we explored how concept map can be used to model the knowledge present in the paper we selected. 

[define knowledge modelling]

==== Conceptual modelling ====
We first reflected on what kind of wikidata properties could be used to represent concepts and theories in wikidata. Capturing the content of a concept is not straightforward and there are various approaches coming from psychology and philosophy on the matter&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|title=The Origin of Concepts|last=Carey|first=Susan|date=2011|publisher=Oxford University Press USA - OSO|isbn=978-0-19-536763-8|series=Oxford Series in Cognitive Development Ser|location=Cary}}&lt;/ref&gt; we summarize these approaches below and examine which wikidata properties exist to represent them.
* Definition: the content of a concept can be formed by its decomposition into other concepts. Many Wikidata properties can be relevant to model definitions, for example: {{Wikidata entity link|P1269}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P361}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P527}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1552}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P6477}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}...
* Categorization: the content of a concept is formed by its illustration by an exemplar (a [[wikipedia:Prototype_theory|prototype]]) that best represent the concept. Apart from the inclusion of images to illustrate an item, Wikidata structure do not highlight exemplars. However, properties signifying relations of categorizations are among the most used with {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} and {{Wikidata entity link|P279}}.
* Theory: the content of a concept is formed by its role in providing explanation of the world. Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships: {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}, {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}/{{Wikidata entity link|P1479}}.
* Essence: the content of a concept is &quot;something&quot; deep explaning the entity's existence and its properties. We can use concepts before knowing what they mean, and this is what allows us to revise our knowledge about it. The idea of essence is well represented by the QID of Wikidata entities: it is independent of language and definitions and we can create it before really knowing what all its properties will be.
* Origin: the content of the concept is determined causally by social and historial factors (e.g. someone inventing the concept and introducing its use in a language community). This can be represented by the property {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}}.

==== Thematic networks ====
[[File:Thematic network example.jpg|thumb|547x547px|Structure of a thematic network (Source: Attride-Stirling 2001)]]
A thematic network is “simply a way of organizing a thematic analysis of qualitative data”&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Attride-Stirling|first=Jennifer|date=2001-12|title=Thematic networks: an analytic tool for qualitative research|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/146879410100100307|journal=Qualitative Research|language=en|volume=1|issue=3|pages=385–405|doi=10.1177/146879410100100307|issn=1468-7941}}&lt;/ref&gt;. It is compatible with classical coding strategies such as [[grounded theory]]&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Corbin|first=Juliet|last2=Strauss|first2=Anselm|date=1990-12-01|title=Grounded Theory Research: Procedures, Canons and Evaluative Criteria|url=https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602/html|journal=Zeitschrift für Soziologie|language=en|volume=19|issue=6|pages=418–427|doi=10.1515/zfsoz-1990-0602|issn=2366-0325}}&lt;/ref&gt;. Thematic networks can be used to visualise the data structure after identifying themes and help structure and interpret the data&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt;. The principle is to assemble basic themes into more general themes.   

Qualitative researchers usually use {{Wikidata entity link|Q4550939}} and qualitative coding (e.g. grounded theory) to identify themes and sub-themes.   

However, the nature of the relationship between these various themes and sub-themes is often not specified.  

*

==== Causal networks ====
The use of diagrams to represent causal relationship exist in various research practices. In statistics, researchers sometime present models with boxes and arrows representing correlations and/or causations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://mirror.vcu.edu/pub/mx/doc/mxmang10.pdf|title=Statistical Modeling|last=Neale|first=Michael C.|last2=Boker|first2=Steven M.|last3=Xie|first3=Gary|last4=Maes|first4=Hermine H.|publisher=Richmond, VA: Department of Psychiatry|year=1999|location=Virginia Commonwealth University}}&lt;/ref&gt;. In qualitative research, building grounded theory models is about &quot;[accounting] for not only all the major emergent concepts, themes, and dimensions, but also for their dynamic interrelationships. Speaking in classic boxes-and-arrows terms, this process amounts to assembling the constellation of boxes with a special focus on the arrows.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Gioia|first=Dennis A.|last2=Corley|first2=Kevin G.|last3=Hamilton|first3=Aimee L.|date=2013-01|title=Seeking Qualitative Rigor in Inductive Research: Notes on the Gioia Methodology|url=https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1094428112452151|journal=Organizational Research Methods|language=en|volume=16|issue=1|pages=15–31|doi=10.1177/1094428112452151|issn=1094-4281}}&lt;/ref&gt; Researchers relying on system theory also use causal loop diagram where boxes represent variables and arrows represent causal influence (positive or negative), causal relationship can &quot;feedback&quot; (two variables can influence each other)&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite book|url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4|title=Causal Loop Diagrams|last=Barbrook-Johnson|first=Pete|last2=Penn|first2=Alexandra S.|date=2022|publisher=Springer International Publishing|isbn=978-3-031-01833-6|location=Cham|pages=47–59|language=en|doi=10.1007/978-3-031-01919-7_4}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

Wikidata includes several properties to describe causal relationships:
* {{Wikidata entity link|P828}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1542}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1537}}
* {{Wikidata entity link|P1479}} : it is difficult to identify single causes for social phenomenons, many factors having an effect on the subject item will likely be contributing factors

==== Modelling concepts ====
To model concepts related to just transition. We read the selected papers and used them as source to build a knowledge graph in wikidata. For example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901182}} mention &quot;Energy democracy is both an ideal and a process&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Droubi|first=Sufyan|last2=Heffron|first2=Raphael|last3=McCauley|first3=Darren|date=2022-04-01|title=A critical review of energy democracy: A failure to deliver justice?|url=https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q137901182|journal=Energy Research &amp; Social Science|volume=86|pages=4|doi=10.1016/J.ERSS.2021.102444}}&lt;/ref&gt;, we thus entered the wikidata statement {{Wikidata entity link|Q14944319}} is an {{Wikidata entity link|P31}} {{Wikidata entity link|Q840396}}, using the paper as source.

Challenges :
*{{Wikidata entity link|P31}}: concepts have a dual nature because they designate at the same time an idea and the entity that this idea represent.
* {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}}: concepts do not have goals in themselves, but the reality they represent can have goals
* wikidata current items are not really suited to model &quot;meta-research&quot; statements. For example, modelling the idea tha the literature on energy democracy is fragmented would require creating an item representing the energy democracy literature, not just energy democracy in general. Similarly, it can be difficult to model the chronological evolution of the definition of an idea (although it could be technically possible).
* To distinguish the causes of the concepts/discourses and the causes of the phenomenon itself, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3938}} to indicate the origins of the concept or the movements promoting it.
* To distinguish goals from the process to reach it, we used {{Wikidata entity link|P3712}} to describe ideals and {{Wikidata entity link|P2670}} to describe processes.
* Wikidata does not seem to be the best tool to model quantitative statements, for example, the paper {{Wikidata entity link|Q137901196}} states that &quot;9.8% of the final energy consumed in developing countries comes from modern renewable energy sources&quot;. Including energy data in Wikidata require using or creating specific properties (e.g. {{Wikidata entity link|P6826}})

&lt;blockquote&gt;Steinbach discovered the formula for the ratios of diagonal to side in the regular polygons. Fontaine and Hurley extended this result, discovering a formula for the reciprocal of a regular polygon chord derived geometrically from the chord's star polygon. We observe that these findings in plane geometry apply more generally, to polytopes of any dimensionality. Fontaine and Hurley's geometric procedure for finding the reciprocals of the chords of a regular polygon from their star polygons also finds the rotational geodesics of any polytope of any dimensionality.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
== Introduction ==
Steinbach discovered the Diagonal Product Formula and the Golden Fields family of ratios of diagonal to side in the regular polygons. He showed how this family extends beyond the pentagon {5} with its well-known golden bisection proportional to 𝜙, finding that the heptagon {7} has an analogous trisection, the nonagon {9} has an analogous quadrasection, and the hendecagon {11} has an analogous pentasection, an extended family of golden proportions with quasiperiodic properties. 

Kappraff and Adamson extended these findings in plane geometry to a theory of Generalized Fibonacci Sequences, showing that the Golden Fields not only do not end with the hendecagon, they form an infinite number of periodic trajectories when operated on by the Mandelbrot operator. They found a relation between the edges of star polygons and dynamical systems in the state of chaos, revealing a connection between chaos theory, number, and rotations in Coxeter Euclidean geometry. 

Fontaine and Hurley examined Steinbach's finding that the length of each chord of a regular polygon is both the product of two chords and the sum of a set of smaller chords, so that in rotations to add is to multiply. They illustrated Steinbach's sets of additive chords lying parallel to each other in the plane (pointing in the same direction), and by applying Steinbach's formula more generally they found another summation relation of signed parallel chords (pointing in opposite directions) which relates each chord length to its reciprocal, and relates the summation to a distinct star polygon rotation. 

We examine these remarkable findings (which stem from study of the chords of humble regular polygons) in higher-dimensional spaces, specifically in the chords, polygons and rotations of the [[120-cell]], the largest four-dimensional regular convex polytope.

They are the [[5-cell|5-point (5-cell) 4-simplex]], the [[16-cell|8-point (16-cell) 4-orthoplex]], the [[W:Tesseract|16-point (8-cell) tesseract]], the [[24-cell|24-point (24-cell)]], the [[600-cell|120-point (600-cell)]], and the [[120-cell|600-point (120-cell)]]. The 120-cell is the convex hull of a compound of 120 disjoint regular 5-cells, of 75 disjoint 16-cells, of 25 disjoint 24-cells, and of 5 disjoint 600-cells.

The 120-cell contains an even larger inventory of irregular polytopes, created by the intersection of multiple instances of these component regular 4-polytopes. Many are quite unexpected, because they do not occur as components of any regular polytope smaller than the 120-cell. As just one example among the [[120-cell#Concentric hulls|sections of the 120-cell]], there is an irregular 24-point polyhedron with 16 triangle faces and 4 nonagon {9} faces.{{Sfn|Moxness|}}

Most renderings of the 120-cell, like the rotating projection here, only illustrate its outer surface, which is a honeycomb of face-bonded dodecahedral cells. Only the objects in its 3-dimensional surface are rendered, namely the 120 dodecahedra, their pentagon faces, and their edges. Although the 120-cell has chords of 30 distinct lengths, in this kind of simplified rendering only the 120-cell's own edges (its shortest chord) are shown. Its 29 interior chords, the edges of objects in the interior of the 120-cell, are not rendered, so interior objects are not visible at all.

Visualizing the complete interior of the 600-vertex 120-cell in a single image is impractical because of its complexity. Only four 120-cell edges are incident at each vertex, but [[120-cell#Chords|600 chords (of all 30 lengths)]] are incident at ''each'' vertex.

== Compounds in the 120-cell ==
The 8-point (16-cell), not the 5-point (5-cell), is the smallest building block; it compounds to every larger regular 4-polytope. The 5-point (5-cell) does compound to the 600-point (120-cell), but it does not fit into any smaller regular 4-polytope. 

The 8-point (16-cell) compounds by 2 in the 16-point (8-cell), and by 3 in the 24-point (24-cell). The 16-point (8-cell) compounds in the 24-point (24-cell) by 3 non-disjoint instances of itself, with each of the 24 vertices shared by two 16-point (8-cells). The 24-point (24-cell) compounds by 5 disjoint instances of itself in the 120-point (600-cell), and the 120-point (600-cell) compounds by 5 disjoint instances of itself in the 600-point (120-cell).

The 24-point (24-cell) also compounds by &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; non-disjoint instances of itself in the 120-point (600-cell); it compounds in 5 disjoint instances of itself, 10 (not 5) different ways. Whichever set of 5 disjoint 24-point (24-cells) are assembled, the resulting 120-point (600-cell) contains 25 distinct 24-point (24-cells), not just 5 (or 10). This implies that 15 disjoint 8-point (16-cells) will construct a 120-point (600-cell), which will contain 75 distinct 8-point (16-cells). 

The 600-point (120-cell) is 5 disjoint 120-point (600-cells), just 2 different ways (not 5 or 10 ways), so it is 10 distinct 120-point (600-cells). This implies that the 8-point (16-cell) compounds by 3 times &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; (75) disjoint instances of itself in the 600-point (120-cell), which contains &lt;math&gt;3^2&lt;/math&gt; times  &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; (225) distinct instances of the 24-point (24-cell), and  &lt;math&gt;3^3&lt;/math&gt; times &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; (675) distinct instances of the 8-point (16-cell). 

These facts were discovered painstakingly by various researchers, and no one has found a general rule governing subsumption relations among regular polytopes. The reasons for some of their numeric incidence relations are far from obvious. [[W:Pieter Hendrik Schoute|Schoute]] was the first to see that the 120-point (600-cell) is a compound of 5 24-point (24-cells) ''10 different ways'', and after he saw it a hundred years lapsed until Denney, Hooker, Johnson, Robinson, Butler &amp; Claiborne proved his result, and showed why.{{Sfn|Denney, Hooker, Johnson, Robinson, Butler &amp; Claiborne|2020|loc=''The geometry of H4 polytopes''}}

So much for the compounds of 16-cells. The 120-cell is also the convex hull of the compound of 120 disjoint regular 5-cells. That stellated compound (without its convex hull of 120-cell edges) is the [[w:Great_grand_stellated_120-cell|great grand stellated 120-cell]] illustrated above, the final regular [[W:Stellation|stellation]] of the 120-cell, and the only [[W:Schläfli-Hess polychoron|regular star 4-polytope]] to have the 120-cell for its convex hull. The edges of the great grand stellated 120-cell are &lt;math&gt;\phi^6&lt;/math&gt; as long as those of its 120-cell [[W:List of polyhedral stellations#Stellation process|stellation core]] deep inside.

The compound of 120 disjoint 5-point (5-cells) can be seen to be equivalent to the compound of 5 disjoint 120-point (600-cells), as follows. Beginning with a single 120-point (600-cell), expand each vertex into a regular 5-cell, by adding 4 new equidistant vertices, such that the 5 vertices form a regular 5-cell inscribed in the 3-sphere. The 120 5-cells are disjoint, and the 600 vertices form 5 disjoint 120-point (600-cells): a 120-cell.

== Thirty distinguished distances ==
The 30 numbers listed in the table are all-important in Euclidean geometry. A case can be made on symmetry grounds that their squares are the 30 most important numbers between 0 and 4. The 30 rows of the table are the 30 distinct [[120-cell#Geodesic rectangles|chord lengths of the unit-radius 120-cell]], the largest regular convex 4-polytope. Since the 120-cell subsumes all smaller regular polytopes, its 30 chords are the complete chord set of all the regular polytopes that can be constructed in the first four dimensions of Euclidean space, except for regular polygons of more than 15 sides.

== The 8-point regular polytopes ==
In 2-space we have the regular 8-point octagon, in 3-space the regular 8-point cube, and in 4-space the regular 8-point [[W:16-cell|16-cell]].

A planar octagon with rigid edges of unit length has chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=1,r_2=\sqrt{2+\sqrt{2}} \approx 1.84776,r_3=1+\sqrt{2} \approx 2.41421,r_4=\sqrt{4 + \sqrt{8}} \approx 2.61313&lt;/math&gt;

The chord ratio &lt;math&gt;r_3=1+\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt; is a geometrical proportion, the [[W:Silver ratio|silver ratio]]. Fontaine and Hurley's procedure for obtaining the reciprocal of a chord tells us that:

:&lt;math&gt;r_3-r_1-r_1=1/r_3 \approx 0.41421&lt;/math&gt;

Notice that &lt;math&gt;1/r_3=\sqrt{2}-1=r_3-2&lt;/math&gt;.

If we embed this planar octagon in 3-space, we can make it skew, repositioning its vertices so that each is one unit-edge length distant from three others instead of two others, so we obtain a unit-edge cube with chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=1, r_2=\sqrt{2}, r_3=\sqrt{3}, r_4=\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;

If we embed this cube in 4-space, we can skew it some more, repositioning its vertices so that each is one unit-edge length distant from six others instead of three others, so we obtain a unit-edge 4-polytope with chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=1,r_2=1,r_3=1,r_4=\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;

All of its chords except its long diameters are the same unit length as its edge. In fact they are its 24 edges, and it is a 16-cell of radius &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;1/\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt;. 

The [[16-cell]] is the [[W:Regular convex 4-polytope|regular convex 4-polytope]] with [[W:Schläfli symbol|Schläfli symbol]] {3,3,4}. It has 8 vertices, 24 edges, 32 equilateral triangle faces, and 16 regular tetrahedron cells. It is the [[16-cell#Octahedral dipyramid|four-dimensional analogue of the octahedron]], and each of its four orthogonal central hyperplanes is an octahedron.

The only planar regular polygons found in the 16-cell are face triangles and central plane squares, but the 16-cell also contains a regular skew octagon, its [[W:Petrie polygon|Petrie polygon]]. The chords of this regular octagon, which lies skew in 4-space, are those given above for the 16-cell, as opposed to those for the cube or the regular octagon in the plane. The 16-cell has 3 such Petrie octagons, which share the same 8 vertices but have disjoint sets of 8 edges each.

The regular octad has higher symmetry in 4-space than it does in 2-space. The 16-cell is the 4-orthoplex, the simplest regular 4-polytope after the [[5-cell|4-simplex]]. All the larger regular 4-polytopes, including the 120-cell, are compounds of the 16-cell. The regular octagon exhibits this high symmetry only when embedded in 4-space at the vertices of the 16-cell.

The 16-cell constitutes an [[W:Orthonormal basis|orthonormal basis]] for the choice of a 4-dimensional Cartesian reference frame, because its vertices define four orthogonal axes. The eight vertices of a unit-radius 16-cell are (±1, 0, 0, 0), (0, ±1, 0, 0), (0, 0, ±1, 0), (0, 0, 0, ±1). All vertices are connected by &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; edges except opposite pairs. In this convenient unit-radius 4-coordinate system, the original planar octagon we started with had chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=\sqrt{2},r_2=\sqrt{4 + \sqrt{8}} \approx 2.61313,r_3=2+\sqrt{2} \approx 3.41421,r_4=\sqrt{2(4 + \sqrt{8})} \approx 3.69552&lt;/math&gt;

none of which chords except &lt;math&gt;r_1=\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt; occur in the 16-cell. In the unit-radius 120-cell, chord &lt;math&gt;c_{15} = \sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;.

The vertex coordinates of the 16-cell form 6 central squares lying in 6 pairwise [[W:Orthogonal|orthogonal]] coordinate planes. Great squares in ''opposite'' planes that do not share an axis (e.g. in the ''xy'' and ''wz'' planes) are completely disjoint (they do not intersect at any vertices). These planes are [[W:Completely orthogonal|completely orthogonal]].{{Efn|name=Six orthogonal planes of the Cartesian basis}}

[[W:Rotations in 4-dimensional Euclidean space|Rotations in 4-dimensional Euclidean space]] can be seen as the composition of two 2-dimensional rotations in completely orthogonal planes. The general rotation in 4-space is a double rotation in pairs of completely orthogonal planes. The two completely orthogonal planes are called invariant rotation planes, because all points in the plane rotate on circles that remain in the plane, even as the whole plane tilts sideways (like a coin flipping) into another plane. The two completely orthogonal rotations of each plane (like a wheel, and like a coin flipping) are simultaneous but independent, in that they are not geometrically constrained to turn at the same rate. However, the most circular kind of rotation (as opposed to an elliptical double rotation of a rigid spherical object) occurs when the completely orthogonal planes do rotate through the same angle in the same time interval. Such equi-angled double rotations are called [[w:SO(4)#Isoclinic_rotations|isoclinic]], also [[w:William_Kingdon_Clifford|Clifford]] displacements.

The 16-cell is the simplest possible frame in which to [[16-cell#Rotations|observe 4-dimensional rotations]] because its characteristic isoclinic rotations feature a single pair of invariant rotation planes. In the 16-cell an isoclinic rotation by 90° in any pair of invariant completely orthogonal square central planes takes every square central plane to its completely orthogonal square central plane, and takes every vertex to its antipodal vertex 180° degrees away. All the vertices move at once, displaced 180° in 8 orthogonal directions, and the rigid 16-cell assumes a new orientation in 4-space. The trajectory of each vertex is a one-eighth segment of its [[W:Geodesic|geodesic]] orbit. Its entire orbit traces a circular helix in 4-space, and also traces a great circle in one of the two completely orthogonal invariant rotation planes, as they tilt sideways into each other's plane. When the isoclinic rotation is continued in the same rotational direction through an additional 90°, each vertex is again displaced 180° to its antipodal position, but from the new orientation where the vertex is on the opposite side of the 16-cell departing in the opposite direction. In the course of a 720° isoclinic rotation each vertex departs from all 8 vertex positions just once, and returns to its original position.

== Hypercubes ==
The long diameter of the unit-edge [[W:Hypercube|hypercube]] of dimension &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;n&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; is &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{n}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt;, so the unit-edge [[w:Tesseract|4-hypercube, the 16-point (8-cell) tesseract,]] has chords:
:&lt;math&gt;r_1=\sqrt{1},r_2=\sqrt{2},r_3=\sqrt{3},r_4=\sqrt{4}&lt;/math&gt;
Uniquely in its 4-dimensional case, the hypercube's edge length equals its radius, like the hexagon. We call such polytopes ''radially equilateral'', because they can be constructed from equilateral triangles which meet at their center, each contributing two radii and an edge. The cuboctahedron and the 24-cell are also radially equilateral.

The [[W:Tesseract|tesseract]] is the [[W:Regular convex 4-polytope|regular convex 4-polytope]] with [[W:Schläfli symbol|Schläfli symbol]] {4,3,3}. It has 16 vertices, 32 edges, 24 square faces, and 8 cube cells. It is the four-dimensional analogue of the cube.

The tesseract is the [[W:Dual polytope|dual polytope]] of the 16-cell. They have the same Petrie polygon, the regular octagon, but the tesseract contains 2 disjoint instances and 4 distinct instances of the skew octagon. We can construct the tesseract the way we constructed the 16-cell, by skewing a planar octagon's edges so they become edges of the 4-polytope. Because the tesseract has 16 vertices we will need two planar octagons, and to start we must embedded them in 4-space as completely orthogonal planes that intersect at only one point, their common center. Because the tesseract is radially equilateral (unlike the 16-cell), to build a unit-radius tesseract we start with our original octagon of unit-edge length, rather than the octagon of edge length &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; that we needed to build the unit-radius 16-cell.

For our tesseract construction we skew each planar octagon into a cube, so we have a compound of two completely orthogonal cubes. Provided the planes were completely orthogonal in 4-space and we skewed them both the same way, the 16 vertices will be the vertices of a tesseract with half of its 32 edges missing.

The 16-point tesseract is the convex hull of a compound of two 8-point 16-cells, in exact dimensional analogy to the way the 8-point cube is the convex hull of a [[W:Stellated octahedron|compound of two regular 4-point tetrahedra]]. The [[W:Demihypercube|demihypercubes]] occupy alternate vertices of the hypercubes. The diagonals of the square faces of the unit-radius tesseract are the &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; edges of two unit-radius 16-cells, which are also the edges of the square central planes.

Because the tesseract contains two 16-cells in alternate positions it has two sets of 6 orthogonal square central planes. Two angles are required to specify the relationship between two planes in 4-space. Pairs of planes within each 16-cell are 90° apart in one angle, and either 0° or 90° apart in the other angle. They are 90° apart in both angles if and only if they are completely orthogonal planes, 90° apart by isoclinic rotation, with no vertices in common and their corresponding vertices 180° apart. Otherwise they are 0° apart in one of the angles, 90° apart by simple rotation with their corresponding vertices 90° apart, and they intersect in one axis and lie in a common 3-dimensional hyperplane.{{Efn|A double rotation in which one of the two angles of rotation is 0°, so that one of the completely orthogonal invariant planes does not rotate, is called a simple rotation. Ordinary rotations observed in a 3-dimensional space are simple rotations.}}

A pair of square central planes from alternate 16-cells are 60° apart by isoclinic rotation, with their corresponding vertices 120° apart. The planes are not orthogonal or parallel, so they intersect in a line somewhere, but they have no vertices in common, they have no 3-dimensional hyperplane in common, and they cannot reach each other by simple rotation. Such pairs of objects are called [[W:Clifford parallel|Clifford parallel]] because all their corresponding pairs of vertices are the same distance apart, although they are not parallel in the usual sense, because they have a common center. Not only the alternate 16-cells' corresponding square central planes, but also the 16-cells themselves, are Clifford parallel objects.

We can rotate the tesseract isoclinically the way we rotated the 16-cell, by 90° in two completely orthogonal invariant square central planes, with the same effect on both alternate 16-cells. In the course of a 720° isoclinic rotation in invariant square central planes each vertex departs from all 8 vertex positions of its 16-cell just once and returns to its original position, but it does not visit the vertex positions of the other 16-cell. The skew octagon geodesic orbits of the 16 vertices are disjoint circular helixes, and those 16 circular helixes are Clifford parallel objects.

== The 24-cell ==
In 2-space we have the radially equilateral 6-point hexagon, in 3-space we have the radially equilateral 12-point cuboctahedron with 4 hexagonal central planes, and in 4-space we have the radially equilateral 24-point 24-cell with 4 cuboctahedral central hyperplanes and 16 hexagonal central planes.

== Conclusions ==

Fontaine and Hurley's discovery is more than a formula for the reciprocal of a regular ''n''-polygon diagonal. It also yields the discrete sequence of isocline chords of the distinct isoclinic rotation characteristic of a ''d''-dimensional regular polytope. The characteristic rotational chord sequence of the ''d''-polytope can be represented geometrically in two dimensions on a distinct star polygon, but it lies on a geodesic circle through ''d''-dimensional space. Fontaine and Hurley discovered the geodesic topology of polytopes generally. Their procedure will reveal the geodesics of arbitrary non-uniform polytopes, since it can be applied to a polytope of any dimensionality and irregularity, by first fitting the polytope to the smallest regular polygon whose chords include its chords.

Fontaine and Hurley's discovery of a chordal formula for isoclinic rotations closes the circuit on Kappraff and Adamson's discovery of a rotational connection between dynamical systems, Steinbach's golden fields, and Coxeter's Euclidean geometry of ''n'' dimensions. Application of the Fontaine and Hurley procedure in higher-dimensional spaces demonstrates why the connection exists: because polytope sequences generally, from Steinbach's golden polygon chord sequences, to chord sequences in isoclinic rotation helixes, to subsumption relations in the sequence of regular 4-polytopes, arise as expressions of the reflections and rotations of distinct Coxeter symmetry groups, when those various groups interact.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Steinbach discovered the formula for the ratios of diagonal to side in the regular polygons. Fontaine and Hurley extended this result, discovering a formula for the reciprocal of a regular polygon chord derived geometrically from the chord's star polygon. We observe that these findings in plane geometry apply more generally, to polytopes of any dimensionality. Fontaine and Hurley's geometric procedure for finding the reciprocals of the chords of a regular polygon from their star polygons also finds the rotational geodesics of any polytope of any dimensionality.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
== Introduction ==
Steinbach discovered the Diagonal Product Formula and the Golden Fields family of ratios of diagonal to side in the regular polygons. He showed how this family extends beyond the pentagon {5} with its well-known golden bisection proportional to 𝜙, finding that the heptagon {7} has an analogous trisection, the nonagon {9} has an analogous quadrasection, and the hendecagon {11} has an analogous pentasection, an extended family of golden proportions with quasiperiodic properties. 

Kappraff and Adamson extended these findings in plane geometry to a theory of Generalized Fibonacci Sequences, showing that the Golden Fields not only do not end with the hendecagon, they form an infinite number of periodic trajectories when operated on by the Mandelbrot operator. They found a relation between the edges of star polygons and dynamical systems in the state of chaos, revealing a connection between chaos theory, number, and rotations in Coxeter Euclidean geometry. 

Fontaine and Hurley examined Steinbach's finding that the length of each chord of a regular polygon is both the product of two chords and the sum of a set of smaller chords, so that in rotations to add is to multiply. They illustrated Steinbach's sets of additive chords lying parallel to each other in the plane (pointing in the same direction), and by applying Steinbach's formula more generally they found another summation relation of signed parallel chords (pointing in opposite directions) which relates each chord length to its reciprocal, and relates the summation to a distinct star polygon rotation. 

We examine these remarkable findings (which stem from study of the chords of humble regular polygons) in higher-dimensional spaces, specifically in the chords, polygons and rotations of the [[120-cell]], the largest four-dimensional regular convex polytope.

[[120-cell#Geometry|The 120-cell is the maximally complex regular 4-polytope]], containing inscribed instances of every regular 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-polytope, except the regular polygons of more than {15} sides. 

The 120-cell is the convex hull of a regular [[120-cell#Relationships among interior polytopes|compound of each of the 6 regular convex 4-polytopes]]. They are the [[5-cell|5-point (5-cell) 4-simplex]], the [[16-cell|8-point (16-cell) 4-orthoplex]], the [[W:Tesseract|16-point (8-cell) tesseract]], the [[24-cell|24-point (24-cell)]], the [[600-cell|120-point (600-cell)]], and the [[120-cell|600-point (120-cell)]]. The 120-cell is the convex hull of a compound of 120 disjoint regular 5-cells, of 75 disjoint 16-cells, of 25 disjoint 24-cells, and of 5 disjoint 600-cells.

The 120-cell contains an even larger inventory of irregular polytopes, created by the intersection of multiple instances of these component regular 4-polytopes. Many are quite unexpected, because they do not occur as components of any regular polytope smaller than the 120-cell. As just one example among the [[120-cell#Concentric hulls|sections of the 120-cell]], there is an irregular 24-point polyhedron with 16 triangle faces and 4 nonagon {9} faces.{{Sfn|Moxness|}}

Most renderings of the 120-cell, like the rotating projection here, only illustrate its outer surface, which is a honeycomb of face-bonded dodecahedral cells. Only the objects in its 3-dimensional surface are rendered, namely the 120 dodecahedra, their pentagon faces, and their edges. Although the 120-cell has chords of 30 distinct lengths, in this kind of simplified rendering only the 120-cell's own edges (its shortest chord) are shown. Its 29 interior chords, the edges of objects in the interior of the 120-cell, are not rendered, so interior objects are not visible at all.

Visualizing the complete interior of the 600-vertex 120-cell in a single image is impractical because of its complexity. Only four 120-cell edges are incident at each vertex, but [[120-cell#Chords|600 chords (of all 30 lengths)]] are incident at ''each'' vertex.

The 8-point (16-cell), not the 5-point (5-cell), is the smallest building block; it compounds to every larger regular 4-polytope. The 5-point (5-cell) does compound to the 600-point (120-cell), but it does not fit into any smaller regular 4-polytope. 

The 8-point (16-cell) compounds by 2 in the 16-point (8-cell), and by 3 in the 24-point (24-cell). The 16-point (8-cell) compounds in the 24-point (24-cell) by 3 non-disjoint instances of itself, with each of the 24 vertices shared by two 16-point (8-cells). The 24-point (24-cell) compounds by 5 disjoint instances of itself in the 120-point (600-cell), and the 120-point (600-cell) compounds by 5 disjoint instances of itself in the 600-point (120-cell).

The 24-point (24-cell) also compounds by &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; non-disjoint instances of itself in the 120-point (600-cell); it compounds in 5 disjoint instances of itself, 10 (not 5) different ways. Whichever set of 5 disjoint 24-point (24-cells) are assembled, the resulting 120-point (600-cell) contains 25 distinct 24-point (24-cells), not just 5 (or 10). This implies that 15 disjoint 8-point (16-cells) will construct a 120-point (600-cell), which will contain 75 distinct 8-point (16-cells). 

The 600-point (120-cell) is 5 disjoint 120-point (600-cells), just 2 different ways (not 5 or 10 ways), so it is 10 distinct 120-point (600-cells). This implies that the 8-point (16-cell) compounds by 3 times &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; (75) disjoint instances of itself in the 600-point (120-cell), which contains &lt;math&gt;3^2&lt;/math&gt; times  &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; (225) distinct instances of the 24-point (24-cell), and  &lt;math&gt;3^3&lt;/math&gt; times &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; (675) distinct instances of the 8-point (16-cell). 

These facts were discovered painstakingly by various researchers, and no one has found a general rule governing subsumption relations among regular polytopes. The reasons for some of their numeric incidence relations are far from obvious. [[W:Pieter Hendrik Schoute|Schoute]] was the first to see that the 120-point (600-cell) is a compound of 5 24-point (24-cells) ''10 different ways'', and after he saw it a hundred years lapsed until Denney, Hooker, Johnson, Robinson, Butler &amp; Claiborne proved his result, and showed why.{{Sfn|Denney, Hooker, Johnson, Robinson, Butler &amp; Claiborne|2020|loc=''The geometry of H4 polytopes''}}

So much for the compounds of 16-cells. The 120-cell is also the convex hull of the compound of 120 disjoint regular 5-cells. That stellated compound (without its convex hull of 120-cell edges) is the [[w:Great_grand_stellated_120-cell|great grand stellated 120-cell]] illustrated above, the final regular [[W:Stellation|stellation]] of the 120-cell, and the only [[W:Schläfli-Hess polychoron|regular star 4-polytope]] to have the 120-cell for its convex hull. The edges of the great grand stellated 120-cell are &lt;math&gt;\phi^6&lt;/math&gt; as long as those of its 120-cell [[W:List of polyhedral stellations#Stellation process|stellation core]] deep inside.

The compound of 120 disjoint 5-point (5-cells) can be seen to be equivalent to the compound of 5 disjoint 120-point (600-cells), as follows. Beginning with a single 120-point (600-cell), expand each vertex into a regular 5-cell, by adding 4 new equidistant vertices, such that the 5 vertices form a regular 5-cell inscribed in the 3-sphere. The 120 5-cells are disjoint, and the 600 vertices form 5 disjoint 120-point (600-cells): a 120-cell.

== Thirty distinguished distances ==
The 30 numbers listed in the table are all-important in Euclidean geometry. A case can be made on symmetry grounds that their squares are the 30 most important numbers between 0 and 4. The 30 rows of the table are the 30 distinct [[120-cell#Geodesic rectangles|chord lengths of the unit-radius 120-cell]], the largest regular convex 4-polytope. Since the 120-cell subsumes all smaller regular polytopes, its 30 chords are the complete chord set of all the regular polytopes that can be constructed in the first four dimensions of Euclidean space, except for regular polygons of more than 15 sides.

== The 8-point regular polytopes ==
In 2-space we have the regular 8-point octagon, in 3-space the regular 8-point cube, and in 4-space the regular 8-point [[W:16-cell|16-cell]].

A planar octagon with rigid edges of unit length has chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=1,r_2=\sqrt{2+\sqrt{2}} \approx 1.84776,r_3=1+\sqrt{2} \approx 2.41421,r_4=\sqrt{4 + \sqrt{8}} \approx 2.61313&lt;/math&gt;

The chord ratio &lt;math&gt;r_3=1+\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt; is a geometrical proportion, the [[W:Silver ratio|silver ratio]]. Fontaine and Hurley's procedure for obtaining the reciprocal of a chord tells us that:

:&lt;math&gt;r_3-r_1-r_1=1/r_3 \approx 0.41421&lt;/math&gt;

Notice that &lt;math&gt;1/r_3=\sqrt{2}-1=r_3-2&lt;/math&gt;.

If we embed this planar octagon in 3-space, we can make it skew, repositioning its vertices so that each is one unit-edge length distant from three others instead of two others, so we obtain a unit-edge cube with chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=1, r_2=\sqrt{2}, r_3=\sqrt{3}, r_4=\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;

If we embed this cube in 4-space, we can skew it some more, repositioning its vertices so that each is one unit-edge length distant from six others instead of three others, so we obtain a unit-edge 4-polytope with chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=1,r_2=1,r_3=1,r_4=\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;

All of its chords except its long diameters are the same unit length as its edge. In fact they are its 24 edges, and it is a 16-cell of radius &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;1/\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt;. 

The [[16-cell]] is the [[W:Regular convex 4-polytope|regular convex 4-polytope]] with [[W:Schläfli symbol|Schläfli symbol]] {3,3,4}. It has 8 vertices, 24 edges, 32 equilateral triangle faces, and 16 regular tetrahedron cells. It is the [[16-cell#Octahedral dipyramid|four-dimensional analogue of the octahedron]], and each of its four orthogonal central hyperplanes is an octahedron.

The only planar regular polygons found in the 16-cell are face triangles and central plane squares, but the 16-cell also contains a regular skew octagon, its [[W:Petrie polygon|Petrie polygon]]. The chords of this regular octagon, which lies skew in 4-space, are those given above for the 16-cell, as opposed to those for the cube or the regular octagon in the plane. The 16-cell has 3 such Petrie octagons, which share the same 8 vertices but have disjoint sets of 8 edges each.

The regular octad has higher symmetry in 4-space than it does in 2-space. The 16-cell is the 4-orthoplex, the simplest regular 4-polytope after the [[5-cell|4-simplex]]. All the larger regular 4-polytopes, including the 120-cell, are compounds of the 16-cell. The regular octagon exhibits this high symmetry only when embedded in 4-space at the vertices of the 16-cell.

The 16-cell constitutes an [[W:Orthonormal basis|orthonormal basis]] for the choice of a 4-dimensional Cartesian reference frame, because its vertices define four orthogonal axes. The eight vertices of a unit-radius 16-cell are (±1, 0, 0, 0), (0, ±1, 0, 0), (0, 0, ±1, 0), (0, 0, 0, ±1). All vertices are connected by &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; edges except opposite pairs. In this convenient unit-radius 4-coordinate system, the original planar octagon we started with had chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=\sqrt{2},r_2=\sqrt{4 + \sqrt{8}} \approx 2.61313,r_3=2+\sqrt{2} \approx 3.41421,r_4=\sqrt{2(4 + \sqrt{8})} \approx 3.69552&lt;/math&gt;

none of which chords except &lt;math&gt;r_1=\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt; occur in the 16-cell. In the unit-radius 120-cell, chord &lt;math&gt;c_{15} = \sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt; occurs as 1800 edges of 75 disjoint 16-cells. 

The vertex coordinates of the 16-cell form 6 central squares lying in 6 pairwise [[W:Orthogonal|orthogonal]] coordinate planes. Great squares in ''opposite'' planes that do not share an axis (e.g. in the ''xy'' and ''wz'' planes) are completely disjoint (they do not intersect at any vertices). These planes are [[W:Completely orthogonal|completely orthogonal]].{{Efn|name=Six orthogonal planes of the Cartesian basis}}

[[W:Rotations in 4-dimensional Euclidean space|Rotations in 4-dimensional Euclidean space]] can be seen as the composition of two 2-dimensional rotations in completely orthogonal planes. The general rotation in 4-space is a double rotation in pairs of completely orthogonal planes. The two completely orthogonal planes are called invariant rotation planes, because all points in the plane rotate on circles that remain in the plane, even as the whole plane tilts sideways (like a coin flipping) into another plane. The two completely orthogonal rotations of each plane (like a wheel, and like a coin flipping) are simultaneous but independent, in that they are not geometrically constrained to turn at the same rate. However, the most circular kind of rotation (as opposed to an elliptical double rotation of a rigid spherical object) occurs when the completely orthogonal planes do rotate through the same angle in the same time interval. Such equi-angled double rotations are called [[w:SO(4)#Isoclinic_rotations|isoclinic]], also [[w:William_Kingdon_Clifford|Clifford]] displacements.

The 16-cell is the simplest possible frame in which to [[16-cell#Rotations|observe 4-dimensional rotations]] because its characteristic isoclinic rotations feature a single pair of invariant rotation planes. In the 16-cell an isoclinic rotation by 90° in any pair of invariant completely orthogonal square central planes takes every square central plane to its completely orthogonal square central plane, and takes every vertex to its antipodal vertex 180° degrees away. All the vertices move at once, displaced 180° in 8 orthogonal directions, and the rigid 16-cell assumes a new orientation in 4-space. The trajectory of each vertex is a one-eighth segment of its [[W:Geodesic|geodesic]] orbit. Its entire orbit traces a circular helix in 4-space, and also traces a great circle in one of the two completely orthogonal invariant rotation planes, as they tilt sideways into each other's plane. When the isoclinic rotation is continued in the same rotational direction through an additional 90°, each vertex is again displaced 180° to its antipodal position, but from the new orientation where the vertex is on the opposite side of the 16-cell departing in the opposite direction. In the course of a 720° isoclinic rotation each vertex departs from all 8 vertex positions just once, and returns to its original position.

== Hypercubes ==
The long diameter of the unit-edge [[W:Hypercube|hypercube]] of dimension &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;n&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; is &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{n}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt;, so the unit-edge [[w:Tesseract|4-hypercube, the 16-point (8-cell) tesseract,]] has chords:
:&lt;math&gt;r_1=\sqrt{1},r_2=\sqrt{2},r_3=\sqrt{3},r_4=\sqrt{4}&lt;/math&gt;
Uniquely in its 4-dimensional case, the hypercube's edge length equals its radius, like the hexagon. We call such polytopes ''radially equilateral'', because they can be constructed from equilateral triangles which meet at their center, each contributing two radii and an edge. The cuboctahedron and the 24-cell are also radially equilateral.

The [[W:Tesseract|tesseract]] is the [[W:Regular convex 4-polytope|regular convex 4-polytope]] with [[W:Schläfli symbol|Schläfli symbol]] {4,3,3}. It has 16 vertices, 32 edges, 24 square faces, and 8 cube cells. It is the four-dimensional analogue of the cube.

The tesseract is the [[W:Dual polytope|dual polytope]] of the 16-cell. They have the same Petrie polygon, the regular octagon, but the tesseract contains 2 disjoint instances and 4 distinct instances of the skew octagon. We can construct the tesseract the way we constructed the 16-cell, by skewing a planar octagon's edges so they become edges of the 4-polytope. Because the tesseract has 16 vertices we will need two planar octagons, and to start we must embedded them in 4-space as completely orthogonal planes that intersect at only one point, their common center. Because the tesseract is radially equilateral (unlike the 16-cell), to build a unit-radius tesseract we start with our original octagon of unit-edge length, rather than the octagon of edge length &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; that we needed to build the unit-radius 16-cell.

For our tesseract construction we skew each planar octagon into a cube, so we have a compound of two completely orthogonal cubes. Provided the planes were completely orthogonal in 4-space and we skewed them both the same way, the 16 vertices will be the vertices of a tesseract with half of its 32 edges missing.

The 16-point tesseract is the convex hull of a compound of two 8-point 16-cells, in exact dimensional analogy to the way the 8-point cube is the convex hull of a [[W:Stellated octahedron|compound of two regular 4-point tetrahedra]]. The [[W:Demihypercube|demihypercubes]] occupy alternate vertices of the hypercubes. The diagonals of the square faces of the unit-radius tesseract are the &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; edges of two unit-radius 16-cells, which are also the edges of the square central planes.

Because the tesseract contains two 16-cells in alternate positions it has two sets of 6 orthogonal square central planes. Two angles are required to specify the relationship between two planes in 4-space. Pairs of planes within each 16-cell are 90° apart in one angle, and either 0° or 90° apart in the other angle. They are 90° apart in both angles if and only if they are completely orthogonal planes, 90° apart by isoclinic rotation, with no vertices in common and their corresponding vertices 180° apart. Otherwise they are 0° apart in one of the angles, 90° apart by simple rotation with their corresponding vertices 90° apart, and they intersect in one axis and lie in a common 3-dimensional hyperplane.{{Efn|A double rotation in which one of the two angles of rotation is 0°, so that one of the completely orthogonal invariant planes does not rotate, is called a simple rotation. Ordinary rotations observed in a 3-dimensional space are simple rotations.}}

A pair of square central planes from alternate 16-cells are 60° apart by isoclinic rotation, with their corresponding vertices 120° apart. The planes are not orthogonal or parallel, so they intersect in a line somewhere, but they have no vertices in common, they have no 3-dimensional hyperplane in common, and they cannot reach each other by simple rotation. Such pairs of objects are called [[W:Clifford parallel|Clifford parallel]] because all their corresponding pairs of vertices are the same distance apart, although they are not parallel in the usual sense, because they have a common center. Not only the alternate 16-cells' corresponding square central planes, but also the 16-cells themselves, are Clifford parallel objects.

We can rotate the tesseract isoclinically the way we rotated the 16-cell, by 90° in two completely orthogonal invariant square central planes, with the same effect on both alternate 16-cells. In the course of a 720° isoclinic rotation in invariant square central planes each vertex departs from all 8 vertex positions of its 16-cell just once and returns to its original position, but it does not visit the vertex positions of the other 16-cell. The skew octagon geodesic orbits of the 16 vertices are disjoint circular helixes, and those 16 circular helixes are Clifford parallel objects.

== The 24-cell ==
In 2-space we have the radially equilateral 6-point hexagon, in 3-space we have the radially equilateral 12-point cuboctahedron with 4 hexagonal central planes, and in 4-space we have the radially equilateral 24-point 24-cell with 4 cuboctahedral central hyperplanes and 16 hexagonal central planes.

== Conclusions ==

Fontaine and Hurley's discovery is more than a formula for the reciprocal of a regular ''n''-polygon diagonal. It also yields the discrete sequence of isocline chords of the distinct isoclinic rotation characteristic of a ''d''-dimensional regular polytope. The characteristic rotational chord sequence of the ''d''-polytope can be represented geometrically in two dimensions on a distinct star polygon, but it lies on a geodesic circle through ''d''-dimensional space. Fontaine and Hurley discovered the geodesic topology of polytopes generally. Their procedure will reveal the geodesics of arbitrary non-uniform polytopes, since it can be applied to a polytope of any dimensionality and irregularity, by first fitting the polytope to the smallest regular polygon whose chords include its chords.

Fontaine and Hurley's discovery of a chordal formula for isoclinic rotations closes the circuit on Kappraff and Adamson's discovery of a rotational connection between dynamical systems, Steinbach's golden fields, and Coxeter's Euclidean geometry of ''n'' dimensions. Application of the Fontaine and Hurley procedure in higher-dimensional spaces demonstrates why the connection exists: because polytope sequences generally, from Steinbach's golden polygon chord sequences, to chord sequences in isoclinic rotation helixes, to subsumption relations in the sequence of regular 4-polytopes, arise as expressions of the reflections and rotations of distinct Coxeter symmetry groups, when those various groups interact.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Steinbach discovered the formula for the ratios of diagonal to side in the regular polygons. Fontaine and Hurley extended this result, discovering a formula for the reciprocal of a regular polygon chord derived geometrically from the chord's star polygon. We observe that these findings in plane geometry apply more generally, to polytopes of any dimensionality. Fontaine and Hurley's geometric procedure for finding the reciprocals of the chords of a regular polygon from their star polygons also finds the rotational geodesics of any polytope of any dimensionality.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
== Introduction ==
Steinbach discovered the Diagonal Product Formula and the Golden Fields family of ratios of diagonal to side in the regular polygons. He showed how this family extends beyond the pentagon {5} with its well-known golden bisection proportional to 𝜙, finding that the heptagon {7} has an analogous trisection, the nonagon {9} has an analogous quadrasection, and the hendecagon {11} has an analogous pentasection, an extended family of golden proportions with quasiperiodic properties. 

Kappraff and Adamson extended these findings in plane geometry to a theory of Generalized Fibonacci Sequences, showing that the Golden Fields not only do not end with the hendecagon, they form an infinite number of periodic trajectories when operated on by the Mandelbrot operator. They found a relation between the edges of star polygons and dynamical systems in the state of chaos, revealing a connection between chaos theory, number, and rotations in Coxeter Euclidean geometry. 

Fontaine and Hurley examined Steinbach's finding that the length of each chord of a regular polygon is both the product of two chords and the sum of a set of smaller chords, so that in rotations to add is to multiply. They illustrated Steinbach's sets of additive chords lying parallel to each other in the plane (pointing in the same direction), and by applying Steinbach's formula more generally they found another summation relation of signed parallel chords (pointing in opposite directions) which relates each chord length to its reciprocal, and relates the summation to a distinct star polygon rotation. 

We examine these remarkable findings (which stem from study of the chords of humble regular polygons) in higher-dimensional spaces, specifically in the chords, polygons and rotations of the [[120-cell]], the largest four-dimensional regular convex polytope.

[[120-cell#Geometry|The 120-cell is the maximally complex regular 4-polytope]], containing inscribed instances of every regular 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-polytope, except the regular polygons of more than {15} sides. 

The 120-cell is the convex hull of a regular [[120-cell#Relationships among interior polytopes|compound of each of the 6 regular convex 4-polytopes]]. They are the [[5-cell|5-point (5-cell) 4-simplex]], the [[16-cell|8-point (16-cell) 4-orthoplex]], the [[W:Tesseract|16-point (8-cell) tesseract]], the [[24-cell|24-point (24-cell)]], the [[600-cell|120-point (600-cell)]], and the [[120-cell|600-point (120-cell)]]. The 120-cell is the convex hull of a compound of 120 disjoint regular 5-cells, of 75 disjoint 16-cells, of 25 disjoint 24-cells, and of 5 disjoint 600-cells.

The 120-cell contains an even larger inventory of irregular polytopes, created by the intersection of multiple instances of these component regular 4-polytopes. Many are quite unexpected, because they do not occur as components of any regular polytope smaller than the 120-cell. As just one example among the [[120-cell#Concentric hulls|sections of the 120-cell]], there is an irregular 24-point polyhedron with 16 triangle faces and 4 nonagon {9} faces.{{Sfn|Moxness|}}

Most renderings of the 120-cell, like the rotating projection here, only illustrate its outer surface, which is a honeycomb of face-bonded dodecahedral cells. Only the objects in its 3-dimensional surface are rendered, namely the 120 dodecahedra, their pentagon faces, and their edges. Although the 120-cell has chords of 30 distinct lengths, in this kind of simplified rendering only the 120-cell's own edges (its shortest chord) are shown. Its 29 interior chords, the edges of objects in the interior of the 120-cell, are not rendered, so interior objects are not visible at all.

Visualizing the complete interior of the 600-vertex 120-cell in a single image is impractical because of its complexity. Only four 120-cell edges are incident at each vertex, but [[120-cell#Chords|600 chords (of all 30 lengths)]] are incident at ''each'' vertex.

== Compounds in the 120-cell ==
The 8-point (16-cell), not the 5-point (5-cell), is the smallest building block; it compounds to every larger regular 4-polytope. The 5-point (5-cell) does compound to the 600-point (120-cell), but it does not fit into any smaller regular 4-polytope. 

The 8-point (16-cell) compounds by 2 in the 16-point (8-cell), and by 3 in the 24-point (24-cell). The 16-point (8-cell) compounds in the 24-point (24-cell) by 3 non-disjoint instances of itself, with each of the 24 vertices shared by two 16-point (8-cells). The 24-point (24-cell) compounds by 5 disjoint instances of itself in the 120-point (600-cell), and the 120-point (600-cell) compounds by 5 disjoint instances of itself in the 600-point (120-cell).

The 24-point (24-cell) also compounds by &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; non-disjoint instances of itself in the 120-point (600-cell); it compounds in 5 disjoint instances of itself, 10 (not 5) different ways. Whichever set of 5 disjoint 24-point (24-cells) are assembled, the resulting 120-point (600-cell) contains 25 distinct 24-point (24-cells), not just 5 (or 10). This implies that 15 disjoint 8-point (16-cells) will construct a 120-point (600-cell), which will contain 75 distinct 8-point (16-cells). 

The 600-point (120-cell) is 5 disjoint 120-point (600-cells), just 2 different ways (not 5 or 10 ways), so it is 10 distinct 120-point (600-cells). This implies that the 8-point (16-cell) compounds by 3 times &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; (75) disjoint instances of itself in the 600-point (120-cell), which contains &lt;math&gt;3^2&lt;/math&gt; times  &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; (225) distinct instances of the 24-point (24-cell), and  &lt;math&gt;3^3&lt;/math&gt; times &lt;math&gt;5^2&lt;/math&gt; (675) distinct instances of the 8-point (16-cell). 

These facts were discovered painstakingly by various researchers, and no one has found a general rule governing subsumption relations among regular polytopes. The reasons for some of their numeric incidence relations are far from obvious. [[W:Pieter Hendrik Schoute|Schoute]] was the first to see that the 120-point (600-cell) is a compound of 5 24-point (24-cells) ''10 different ways'', and after he saw it a hundred years lapsed until Denney, Hooker, Johnson, Robinson, Butler &amp; Claiborne proved his result, and showed why.{{Sfn|Denney, Hooker, Johnson, Robinson, Butler &amp; Claiborne|2020|loc=''The geometry of H4 polytopes''}}

So much for the compounds of 16-cells. The 120-cell is also the convex hull of the compound of 120 disjoint regular 5-cells. That stellated compound (without its convex hull of 120-cell edges) is the [[w:Great_grand_stellated_120-cell|great grand stellated 120-cell]] illustrated above, the final regular [[W:Stellation|stellation]] of the 120-cell, and the only [[W:Schläfli-Hess polychoron|regular star 4-polytope]] to have the 120-cell for its convex hull. The edges of the great grand stellated 120-cell are &lt;math&gt;\phi^6&lt;/math&gt; as long as those of its 120-cell [[W:List of polyhedral stellations#Stellation process|stellation core]] deep inside.

The compound of 120 disjoint 5-point (5-cells) can be seen to be equivalent to the compound of 5 disjoint 120-point (600-cells), as follows. Beginning with a single 120-point (600-cell), expand each vertex into a regular 5-cell, by adding 4 new equidistant vertices, such that the 5 vertices form a regular 5-cell inscribed in the 3-sphere. The 120 5-cells are disjoint, and the 600 vertices form 5 disjoint 120-point (600-cells): a 120-cell.

== Thirty distinguished distances ==
The 30 numbers listed in the table are all-important in Euclidean geometry. A case can be made on symmetry grounds that their squares are the 30 most important numbers between 0 and 4. The 30 rows of the table are the 30 distinct [[120-cell#Geodesic rectangles|chord lengths of the unit-radius 120-cell]], the largest regular convex 4-polytope. Since the 120-cell subsumes all smaller regular polytopes, its 30 chords are the complete chord set of all the regular polytopes that can be constructed in the first four dimensions of Euclidean space, except for regular polygons of more than 15 sides.

== The 8-point regular polytopes ==
In 2-space we have the regular 8-point octagon, in 3-space the regular 8-point cube, and in 4-space the regular 8-point [[W:16-cell|16-cell]].

A planar octagon with rigid edges of unit length has chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=1,r_2=\sqrt{2+\sqrt{2}} \approx 1.84776,r_3=1+\sqrt{2} \approx 2.41421,r_4=\sqrt{4 + \sqrt{8}} \approx 2.61313&lt;/math&gt;

The chord ratio &lt;math&gt;r_3=1+\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt; is a geometrical proportion, the [[W:Silver ratio|silver ratio]]. Fontaine and Hurley's procedure for obtaining the reciprocal of a chord tells us that:

:&lt;math&gt;r_3-r_1-r_1=1/r_3 \approx 0.41421&lt;/math&gt;

Notice that &lt;math&gt;1/r_3=\sqrt{2}-1=r_3-2&lt;/math&gt;.

If we embed this planar octagon in 3-space, we can make it skew, repositioning its vertices so that each is one unit-edge length distant from three others instead of two others, so we obtain a unit-edge cube with chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=1, r_2=\sqrt{2}, r_3=\sqrt{3}, r_4=\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;

If we embed this cube in 4-space, we can skew it some more, repositioning its vertices so that each is one unit-edge length distant from six others instead of three others, so we obtain a unit-edge 4-polytope with chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=1,r_2=1,r_3=1,r_4=\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;

All of its chords except its long diameters are the same unit length as its edge. In fact they are its 24 edges, and it is a 16-cell of radius &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;1/\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt;. 

The [[16-cell]] is the [[W:Regular convex 4-polytope|regular convex 4-polytope]] with [[W:Schläfli symbol|Schläfli symbol]] {3,3,4}. It has 8 vertices, 24 edges, 32 equilateral triangle faces, and 16 regular tetrahedron cells. It is the [[16-cell#Octahedral dipyramid|four-dimensional analogue of the octahedron]], and each of its four orthogonal central hyperplanes is an octahedron.

The only planar regular polygons found in the 16-cell are face triangles and central plane squares, but the 16-cell also contains a regular skew octagon, its [[W:Petrie polygon|Petrie polygon]]. The chords of this regular octagon, which lies skew in 4-space, are those given above for the 16-cell, as opposed to those for the cube or the regular octagon in the plane. The 16-cell has 3 such Petrie octagons, which share the same 8 vertices but have disjoint sets of 8 edges each.

The regular octad has higher symmetry in 4-space than it does in 2-space. The 16-cell is the 4-orthoplex, the simplest regular 4-polytope after the [[5-cell|4-simplex]]. All the larger regular 4-polytopes, including the 120-cell, are compounds of the 16-cell. The regular octagon exhibits this high symmetry only when embedded in 4-space at the vertices of the 16-cell.

The 16-cell constitutes an [[W:Orthonormal basis|orthonormal basis]] for the choice of a 4-dimensional Cartesian reference frame, because its vertices define four orthogonal axes. The eight vertices of a unit-radius 16-cell are (±1, 0, 0, 0), (0, ±1, 0, 0), (0, 0, ±1, 0), (0, 0, 0, ±1). All vertices are connected by &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; edges except opposite pairs. In this convenient unit-radius 4-coordinate system, the original planar octagon we started with had chords of length:

:&lt;math&gt;r_1=\sqrt{2},r_2=\sqrt{4 + \sqrt{8}} \approx 2.61313,r_3=2+\sqrt{2} \approx 3.41421,r_4=\sqrt{2(4 + \sqrt{8})} \approx 3.69552&lt;/math&gt;

none of which chords except &lt;math&gt;r_1=\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt; occur in the 16-cell. In the unit-radius 120-cell, chord &lt;math&gt;c_{15} = \sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt; occurs in 675 distinct 16-cells. 

The vertex coordinates of the 16-cell form 6 central squares lying in 6 pairwise [[W:Orthogonal|orthogonal]] coordinate planes. Great squares in ''opposite'' planes that do not share an axis (e.g. in the ''xy'' and ''wz'' planes) are completely disjoint (they do not intersect at any vertices). These planes are [[W:Completely orthogonal|completely orthogonal]].{{Efn|name=Six orthogonal planes of the Cartesian basis}}

[[W:Rotations in 4-dimensional Euclidean space|Rotations in 4-dimensional Euclidean space]] can be seen as the composition of two 2-dimensional rotations in completely orthogonal planes. The general rotation in 4-space is a double rotation in pairs of completely orthogonal planes. The two completely orthogonal planes are called invariant rotation planes, because all points in the plane rotate on circles that remain in the plane, even as the whole plane tilts sideways (like a coin flipping) into another plane. The two completely orthogonal rotations of each plane (like a wheel, and like a coin flipping) are simultaneous but independent, in that they are not geometrically constrained to turn at the same rate. However, the most circular kind of rotation (as opposed to an elliptical double rotation of a rigid spherical object) occurs when the completely orthogonal planes do rotate through the same angle in the same time interval. Such equi-angled double rotations are called [[w:SO(4)#Isoclinic_rotations|isoclinic]], also [[w:William_Kingdon_Clifford|Clifford]] displacements.

The 16-cell is the simplest possible frame in which to [[16-cell#Rotations|observe 4-dimensional rotations]] because its characteristic isoclinic rotations feature a single pair of invariant rotation planes. In the 16-cell an isoclinic rotation by 90° in any pair of invariant completely orthogonal square central planes takes every square central plane to its completely orthogonal square central plane, and takes every vertex to its antipodal vertex 180° degrees away. All the vertices move at once, displaced 180° in 8 orthogonal directions, and the rigid 16-cell assumes a new orientation in 4-space. The trajectory of each vertex is a one-eighth segment of its [[W:Geodesic|geodesic]] orbit. Its entire orbit traces a circular helix in 4-space, and also traces a great circle in one of the two completely orthogonal invariant rotation planes, as they tilt sideways into each other's plane. When the isoclinic rotation is continued in the same rotational direction through an additional 90°, each vertex is again displaced 180° to its antipodal position, but from the new orientation where the vertex is on the opposite side of the 16-cell departing in the opposite direction. In the course of a 720° isoclinic rotation each vertex departs from all 8 vertex positions just once, and returns to its original position.

== Hypercubes ==
The long diameter of the unit-edge [[W:Hypercube|hypercube]] of dimension &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;n&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; is &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{n}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt;, so the unit-edge [[w:Tesseract|4-hypercube, the 16-point (8-cell) tesseract,]] has chords:
:&lt;math&gt;r_1=\sqrt{1},r_2=\sqrt{2},r_3=\sqrt{3},r_4=\sqrt{4}&lt;/math&gt;
Uniquely in its 4-dimensional case, the hypercube's edge length equals its radius, like the hexagon. We call such polytopes ''radially equilateral'', because they can be constructed from equilateral triangles which meet at their center, each contributing two radii and an edge. The cuboctahedron and the 24-cell are also radially equilateral.

The [[W:Tesseract|tesseract]] is the [[W:Regular convex 4-polytope|regular convex 4-polytope]] with [[W:Schläfli symbol|Schläfli symbol]] {4,3,3}. It has 16 vertices, 32 edges, 24 square faces, and 8 cube cells. It is the four-dimensional analogue of the cube.

The tesseract is the [[W:Dual polytope|dual polytope]] of the 16-cell. They have the same Petrie polygon, the regular octagon, but the tesseract contains 2 disjoint instances and 4 distinct instances of the skew octagon. We can construct the tesseract the way we constructed the 16-cell, by skewing a planar octagon's edges so they become edges of the 4-polytope. Because the tesseract has 16 vertices we will need two planar octagons, and to start we must embedded them in 4-space as completely orthogonal planes that intersect at only one point, their common center. Because the tesseract is radially equilateral (unlike the 16-cell), to build a unit-radius tesseract we start with our original octagon of unit-edge length, rather than the octagon of edge length &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; that we needed to build the unit-radius 16-cell.

For our tesseract construction we skew each planar octagon into a cube, so we have a compound of two completely orthogonal cubes. Provided the planes were completely orthogonal in 4-space and we skewed them both the same way, the 16 vertices will be the vertices of a tesseract with half of its 32 edges missing.

The 16-point tesseract is the convex hull of a compound of two 8-point 16-cells, in exact dimensional analogy to the way the 8-point cube is the convex hull of a [[W:Stellated octahedron|compound of two regular 4-point tetrahedra]]. The [[W:Demihypercube|demihypercubes]] occupy alternate vertices of the hypercubes. The diagonals of the square faces of the unit-radius tesseract are the &lt;small&gt;&lt;math&gt;\sqrt{2}&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/small&gt; edges of two unit-radius 16-cells, which are also the edges of the square central planes.

Because the tesseract contains two 16-cells in alternate positions it has two sets of 6 orthogonal square central planes. Two angles are required to specify the relationship between two planes in 4-space. Pairs of planes within each 16-cell are 90° apart in one angle, and either 0° or 90° apart in the other angle. They are 90° apart in both angles if and only if they are completely orthogonal planes, 90° apart by isoclinic rotation, with no vertices in common and their corresponding vertices 180° apart. Otherwise they are 0° apart in one of the angles, 90° apart by simple rotation with their corresponding vertices 90° apart, and they intersect in one axis and lie in a common 3-dimensional hyperplane.{{Efn|A double rotation in which one of the two angles of rotation is 0°, so that one of the completely orthogonal invariant planes does not rotate, is called a simple rotation. Ordinary rotations observed in a 3-dimensional space are simple rotations.}}

A pair of square central planes from alternate 16-cells are 60° apart by isoclinic rotation, with their corresponding vertices 120° apart. The planes are not orthogonal or parallel, so they intersect in a line somewhere, but they have no vertices in common, they have no 3-dimensional hyperplane in common, and they cannot reach each other by simple rotation. Such pairs of objects are called [[W:Clifford parallel|Clifford parallel]] because all their corresponding pairs of vertices are the same distance apart, although they are not parallel in the usual sense, because they have a common center. Not only the alternate 16-cells' corresponding square central planes, but also the 16-cells themselves, are Clifford parallel objects.

We can rotate the tesseract isoclinically the way we rotated the 16-cell, by 90° in two completely orthogonal invariant square central planes, with the same effect on both alternate 16-cells. In the course of a 720° isoclinic rotation in invariant square central planes each vertex departs from all 8 vertex positions of its 16-cell just once and returns to its original position, but it does not visit the vertex positions of the other 16-cell. The skew octagon geodesic orbits of the 16 vertices are disjoint circular helixes, and those 16 circular helixes are Clifford parallel objects.

== The 24-cell ==
In 2-space we have the radially equilateral 6-point hexagon, in 3-space we have the radially equilateral 12-point cuboctahedron with 4 hexagonal central planes, and in 4-space we have the radially equilateral 24-point 24-cell with 4 cuboctahedral central hyperplanes and 16 hexagonal central planes.

== Conclusions ==

Fontaine and Hurley's discovery is more than a formula for the reciprocal of a regular ''n''-polygon diagonal. It also yields the discrete sequence of isocline chords of the distinct isoclinic rotation characteristic of a ''d''-dimensional regular polytope. The characteristic rotational chord sequence of the ''d''-polytope can be represented geometrically in two dimensions on a distinct star polygon, but it lies on a geodesic circle through ''d''-dimensional space. Fontaine and Hurley discovered the geodesic topology of polytopes generally. Their procedure will reveal the geodesics of arbitrary non-uniform polytopes, since it can be applied to a polytope of any dimensionality and irregularity, by first fitting the polytope to the smallest regular polygon whose chords include its chords.

Fontaine and Hurley's discovery of a chordal formula for isoclinic rotations closes the circuit on Kappraff and Adamson's discovery of a rotational connection between dynamical systems, Steinbach's golden fields, and Coxeter's Euclidean geometry of ''n'' dimensions. Application of the Fontaine and Hurley procedure in higher-dimensional spaces demonstrates why the connection exists: because polytope sequences generally, from Steinbach's golden polygon chord sequences, to chord sequences in isoclinic rotation helixes, to subsumption relations in the sequence of regular 4-polytopes, arise as expressions of the reflections and rotations of distinct Coxeter symmetry groups, when those various groups interact.

== Invitation to edit this book ==

You, dear reader, are invited to contribute questions, ideas and citations to support or refute claims made in this book possibly adding chapters. Wikiversity like other Wikimedia Foundation Projects invites humans to [[w:Wikipedia:Be bold|“be bold but not reckless,”]] while writing from a [[Wikiversity:Disclosures|neutral point of view]], [[Wikiversity:Cite sources|citing credible sources]]. Others are invited to change or revert what you wrote. What stays tends to be written from a neutral point of view citing credible sources. If someone reverts your edit or you have a question, take it to the ''[[Wikiversity:FAQ|''''“Discuss”'''' page]]'' associated with the specific Wikiversity page most related to your concerns. 

Those who teach media literacy are encouraged to invite their students to debate and revise the contents of this book. Doing so would build on a tradition of [[:w:Wikipedia:Student assignments|instructors requiring students to edit wikipedia article(s).]]  Editing [[:w:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and other [[:w:Wikimedia Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] projects like this book is itself an exercise in media literacy: 

:''Central tenets of media literacy include writing from a neutral point of view citing credible sources and engaging others, some of whom may disagree, in civil, supportive conversations about what can and cannot be said based on a reasonable evaluation of the available evidence. Wikimedia rules invite contributors to do just that, encouraging them to “be bold but not reckless,” contributing revisions written from a neutral point of view, citing credible sources -- and raising other questions and concerns on the ''''“Discuss”'''' page associated with the specific Wikiversity page most related to your concerns, as mentioned above.'' 

== Text and self-help book and point of discuss ==

This book is intended both as a text and self-help book and as a point of discussion on media literacy from three perspectives: 

:1. Passive media literacy, which is helping individuals understand the importance of looking for information that might contradict one's preconceptions (including suggestions on how to find alternative source of information). This suggests a need for ''disconfirmation bias'' to overcome the [[w:confirmation bias|confirmation bias]] that is a problematic feature of human psychology exploited by the major media, including for-profit social media, to please those who control most of their money.

:2. Proactive media literacy, which is helping individuals learn how to engage others in open, non-threatening and supportive conversations to share concerns, compare sources of information, and build relationships in which different humans can collaborate productively on areas on of common concern while agreeing to disagree agreeable where they differ. 

:3. Active media literacy, by which students of media literacy educate others on media literacy. If each one teaches two&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[:w:Each one teach one|Each one teach one]]&quot; is an African-American proverb from the time of legalized slavery. However, if each one teaches only one, the growth in literacy will only be linear. Having &quot;each one teaching two&quot;, on average, unleashes the power of doubling and [[:w:exponential growth|exponential growth]], which has the potential of educating the entirety of humanity in a reasonable period of time -- namely after 33 doublings starting from one.&lt;/ref&gt; in a certain period of time, that time period becomes a [[:w:Doubling time|doubling time]]. Ten doublings is a thousand -- actually 1,024 to be precise.&lt;ref&gt;2 time 2 = 4 times 2 = 8 times 2 = 16 times 2 = 32 times 2 = 64 times 2 = 128 times 2 = 256 times 2 = 512 times 2 = 1024: That's 10 doublings, as anyone with a modest understanding of modern digital [[:w:computer|computer]]s will tell you.&lt;/ref&gt; Twenty doublings become a million. Thirty doublings become a billion. Three more doublings become 8 billion, the [[:w:World population|world population]] as of approximately 2022-11-15.&lt;ref&gt;This book uses dates in [[:w:ISO 8601|ISO 8601]], YYYY-MM-DD, when convenient.&lt;/ref&gt; Many organizations, including several United Nations agencies, already have active [[w:media literacy|media literacy]] programs that have already trained many.&lt;ref&gt;''[[Wikibooks:Antiracist Activism for Teachers and Students]]'' includes a chapter on [[Wikibooks:Antiracist Activism for Teachers and Students/Points to Consider for Teaching Anti-racism/Media Literacy In Schools|Media Literacy In Schools]].&lt;/ref&gt; This book is being written hoping to increase the effectiveness and accelerate the rate of growth in media literacy and thereby accelerate progress against many of the most pressing issues facing humanity today.

Much of this book serve as a [[w:Monograph|research monograph]] summarizing research that seems to have been underreported by the major media to avoid offending people who control most of the money for the media. These research results seem to be central to major political divisions. Each chapter ends in exercises to help the reader practice media literacy skills and have fun doing it. Remember: 

:''I am entitled to my [[Wiktionary:cockamamie|cockamamie]] ideas, and you are entitled to yours.''

Humor is important but must be offered in a way that does not offend others. If others are offended, they may be less interested in dialogue. The term &quot;cockamamie&quot; is used here, hoping that this style of [[w:Self-deprecation|self-deprecation]] might be more inviting for dialogue.

''Never say, &quot;You're wrong, and I'm right!&quot; instead, ask, &quot;May I offer a contrary perspective?&quot; Or &quot;May I share with you another view that I've heard?&quot; ''

Much of the information in this book seems to have been largely overlooked and perhaps suppressed, apparently because it would increase the cost of producing news, some of which would clearly offend people who control much of the money for the media; see the brief discussion of conflicts of interest by the major media in the next &quot;Key claims&quot; section.

==Key claims==

* ''Primary drivers of every major conflict include differences between the media that the different parties find credible''.
:-- This works, because everything we think we know is coded in systems of connections between neurons in our brains. These systems are more unique than fingerprints and evolve over time. The words we use do not mean the same to two different humans nor even to the same human at different points in time. In many cases these differences are inconsequential. ''Sometimes they are fatal.''&lt;ref&gt;Graves and Bailey (2026).&lt;/ref&gt;
:-- ''[[w:Social constructionism|Show me someone who knows the truth]], and I will show you someone who is dangerous'' -- especially during war or any other situation where humans may be moved to violence mandated by their belief system.&lt;ref&gt;[[w:Collateral damage|Collateral damage]] that &quot;they&quot; commit proves to &quot;us&quot; that &quot;they&quot; are subhuman or at best criminally misled and must be resisted by any means necessary. By contrast, collateral damage that &quot;we&quot; commit is unfortunate but necessary.&lt;/ref&gt;
* The major media everywhere have [[w:Conflict of interest|conflicts of interest ]] in honestly reporting on [[v:Information is a public good per communications prof Pickard|anything that might offend anyone who controls large portions of the money for the media]].&lt;ref&gt;Pickard and Graves (2025), accessed 2026-02-08; Pickard (2020).&lt;/ref&gt; [[v:Media Reform Coalition challenges anti-democratic media bias in the UK|British journalist and media reform advocate Dan Hind]] said that the content produced by the [[w:BBC|BBC]] was frivolous, soap opera stuff, because leading media personalities know very little about issues of substance and believe &quot;they might get in trouble if&quot; they produced anything serious. Similar analyses seem to apply to the major media everywhere&lt;ref&gt;Hind and Graves (2025), accessed 2026-02-09.&lt;/ref&gt; but may not apply to non-profit and local media, which seem more likely to produce [[w:Investigative journalism|investigative]] / [[v:Dean Starkman and the watchdog that didn't bark|accountability journalism]]:&lt;ref&gt;Usher and Kim-Leffingwell (2022); see also Starkman and Graves (2025), accessed 2026-02-09.&lt;/ref&gt; [[w:Watchdog journalism|Watchdogs]] tend to protect the people who feed them. Argentine journalist [[w:Horacio Verbitsky|Horacio Verbitsky]] said, &quot;Journalism is disseminating information that someone does not want known; the rest is [[w:propaganda|propaganda]].&quot;&lt;ref&gt;p. 16 in Verbitsky (1997); English translation from [[Wikiquote:Horacio Verbitsky]], accessed 2026-02-09.&lt;/ref&gt;
* The major media everywhere create the stage upon which politicians read their lines. 
:- Their selection of acceptable topics for news and entertainment create and maintain the &quot;[[w:Overton window|Overton window]]&quot;, which is the range of acceptable political discourse. For example, in early 1964, US President [[w:Lyndon B. Johnson|Lyndon Johnson]] understood that he could lose the 1964 presidential election that year if he were seen to be soft on communism. His response was to clandestinely provoke an attack on US naval vessels in the Gulf of Tonkin, which he could then denounce as &quot;unprovoked&quot;. During a dark and stormy night 1964-08-04 the [[w:USS Maddox (DD-731)|USS ''Maddox'']] and [[w:USS Turner Joy|''Turner Joy'']] spent a couple of hours &quot;defending themselves&quot; against radar snow, then [[w:Gulf of Tonkin incident|reported that they had sunk two attacking North Vietnamese torpedo boats]]; subsequent investigations found no evidence of the reported attacks. That incident was used to justify the [[w:Gulf of Tonkin Resolution|Gulf of Tonkin Resolution]], with only two dissenting votes in the US Congress: Those two dissenters were defeated in their next reelection campaigns, illustrating the point that the major media create the environment in which many politicians cannot get elected without betraying the nation. 

=== The value of noncommercial news outlets ===

Some of the problems with the media and their contributions to increasing political polarization and violence are documented in the research summary on &quot;[[Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government]]&quot; and in the podcast series available on Wikiversity under &quot;[[:Category:Media reform to improve democracy]]&quot; with leading experts discussing their recommendations. One of the most compelling of the references discussed in that podcast series is Usher and Kim-Leffingwell (2022), who tallied all the federal prosecutions for political corruption in each of the 94 [[w:United States federal judicial district|US federal court district]]s between 2003 and 2019. During that period, the number of journalists in the US fell by a factor of roughly 3 -- between 60 and 70 percent. They found no statistically significant impact on federal prosecutions for political corruption of that decline in the number of journalists. 

However, each member of the [[w:Institute for Nonprofit News|Institute for Nonprofit News]] (INN) in a federal court district in one year was associated with on average 1.4 additional prosecutions for political corruption the following year. 

This suggests that the major media outlets that had so dramatically reduced their staffs had not substantively reduced the amount of investigative journalism they did. If we assume that the people prosecuted for political corruption also control substantive advertising budgets, then the major media outlets have conflicts of interest in honestly reporting on such. They may report on it if some other organization like a member of INN does the research and they are threatened with a loss of audience from not reporting on it. 

:'''''Major point''''': You and I benefit, the vast majority of humans on earth benefit, from news reports presumably published by members if INN that contributed to those on average 1.4 additional prosecutions for political corruption estimated by Usher and Kim-Leffingwell (2022). We benefit even if we never heard about the news reports that contributed to those prosecutions. We benefit even if we have never heard of the news outlets that presumably did the investigative journalism behind those additional prosecutions. Why? Because on average those news reports likely deterred other incidents of political corruption, which likely contributed to broadly shared economic growth and the development of new technology that ultimately benefit the vast majority of humanity. Other aspects of this are documented in the research on the impact of [[w:news desert|news desert]]s, which we summarize next.  

=== Costs increase in news deserts===

There's a growing body of research describing what happens when local newspapers die. 

Perhaps most important, a 2018 research report by Gao et al. reported that the death of a local newspaper was followed by … increases in local tax revenue, averaging $85 per human per year.&lt;ref name = Gao2018&gt;Gao et al. (2018).&lt;/ref&gt; That $85 was roughly 13 hundredths of a percent of the 2019 US GDP. That's mentioned in the 2025-07-17 interview with [[Democratic delusions: Fix the media to fix democracy|Natalie Fenton about her new book, ''Democratic Delusions, How the Media Hollows out democracy and What We Can Do About It'']].

One of the most spectacular example of the cost of a news desert is the [[w:City of Bell scandal|Scandal of Bell, California]]. Their local newspaper died around 1999. Roughly a decade later the city was nearly bankrupt in spite of having property tax rates among the highest in the nation. An investigation by the ''[[w:Los Angeles Times|Los Angeles Times]]'' documented that the city manager had a compensation package worth $1.5 million a year, well over double that of the President of the United States. Other senior city officials were similarly well-remunerated. Some of the city officials went to jail over that. Did the city manager decide after 1999, &quot;Wow: The watchdog is dead. Let's have a party&quot;? 

Malfeasance also increases in business as pollution and workplace accidents increase as does the cost of capital, because investors know their money is not as secure without a local newspaper. That leads to a reduction in investments in new products, services and processes -- slowing economic growth. See &quot;[[Local newspapers limit malfeasance]]&quot;, esp. Kim et al. (2021). 

And executive compensation in increases in nonprofits, so less of what people donate goes to the charitable purpose for which they donated, according to Felix et al. (2024). Also, voter participation and split-ticket voting decline, per Benton (2019) and other references discussed in &quot;[[Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government]]&quot;. And the ultra-right does better, as noted in [[News from Germany 1900-1945 and implications for today]] and the section on &quot;[[Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government#Previous research|Previous research]]&quot; in the Wikiversity article on &quot;[[Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government]]&quot;.&lt;ref&gt;Flößer (2024).&lt;/ref&gt; 

The 0.13 percent of GDP savings estimated by Gao et al. (2018) is roughly $120 per human per year. With over 300 million humans in the U.S, that is roughly $40 billion nationwide.

=== Government subsidies === 

John (1995) documented how in the first half of the nineteenth century the US had more independent newspaper publishers per million population than at any other time or place in human history.&lt;ref&gt;This is discussed in the 2025-06-08 [[Media concentration per Columbia History Professor Richard John|interview with him]], available on Wikiversity under [[:Category:Media reform to improve democracy]], accessed 2026-04-30.&lt;/ref&gt; This encouraged literacy and limited political corruption, both of which helped [[The Great American Paradox|the early United States stay together and grow]]  while contemporary [[w:New Spain|New Spain]] / [[w:Mexico|Mexico]], fractured, shrank, and stagnated economically. As documented with Figure 1 in the chapter below on [[/The impact of the media on political economy since the time of the Pharaohs/]], that growth catapulted the young United States into its current position of dominance in the international political economy, a position it has been losing since at least 1990 -- or since the Reagan Revolution began in 1981, according to the analysis in the chapter below on [[/Fox, the Great Depression, the Great Recession, and our future/]]. Other countries now have stronger democracies due in part to government subsidies for media in the range of 0.05 and 0.25 percent of GDP with a firewall that limits political interference in the content, according to Neff and Pickard (2024). Table 1 in &quot;[[Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government]] compares media subsidies in various places with &quot;other points of reference&quot;.  

McChesney and Nichols (2010, pp. 310-311, note 88) suggested that the relatively high rate of economic growth of the economy in the early US was due in part to postal subsidies under the US [[w:Postal Service Act|Postal Service Act]] of 1792.&lt;ref&gt;See also the Wikiversity article on &quot;[[The Great American Paradox]]&quot;, accessed 2026-04-30.&lt;/ref&gt; They estimated those subsidies at 0.21 percent of GDP. To improve the current political economy of the US, they recommended subsidies of 0.15 percent of GDP distributed to local news nonprofits on the basis of local elections.&lt;ref&gt;McChesney and Nichols (2021, 2022).&lt;/ref&gt; The Wikipedia article on &quot;[[Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government]]&quot; documents how some jurisdictions can devote that much money to local news nonprofits by matching what they spend on accounting, advertising, and public relations.&lt;ref&gt;See the section on &quot;[[Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government#Sampling units / experimental polities|Sampling units / experimental polities]]&quot; in the Wikiversity article on &quot;[[Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government]]&quot;, accessed 2026-04-30.&lt;/ref&gt;  

Pickard (2023) describes three basic strategies for confronting concentrated commercial media power: (1) break them up, (2) regulate them, and (3) create non-commercial, public alternatives. A fourth possibility might be [[w:externality|a graduated tax on income and wealth]] in proportion to the threat that major corporations pose to democracy. 

One class of noncommercial alternatives that Packard mentions is local multi-media / Public Media Centers (PMCs) with management split between local journalists and boards, e.g., selected at random from registered voters. A key here is to have the boards selected in a way that cannot be influenced by people with power, whether business or political elites. Picard recommends considering '''six discrete layers''' when discussing PMCs, each of which, he says, must be radically democratised: 
# funding, 
# governance, 
# ascertainment (to determine a community’s ''critical information needs''), 
# infrastructure (including universal broadband service), 
# algorithmic (e.g., not allowing companies like Google and Facebook to suppress indexing information the might challenge their hegemony of those markets, [[w:Deep web|treating them like pedophilia and the Islamic State]]), 
# engagement, involving local communities in making their own news and in communicating their own stories; this is paramount to building trust and the grassroots-level support that this new local journalistic model requires.

All this needs to be managed in ways that provide substantive support to news deserts and underserved communities that have long been subjected to various kinds of informational redlining. This might be done by including the proposed PMCs within local libraries staffed by professional journalists, who provide training in media literacy in local schools for children and supervise students producing school newspapers. 

Management of such PMCs might be split between journalists on staff and boards of, e.g., six members selected at random from voter registration rolls serving staggered terms of one year with a new member rotated in every 2 months.  

Another alternative that could be done in parallel with local PMCs calls for 200 journalists in each US Congressional district funded at $10 billion annually in 2022 dollars, which is just a little under 4 hundredths of one percent of GDP; if such allocations are expressed as fractions of a percent of GDP, they would grow naturally with the economy. (The nominal GDP for the US was roughly $26.1 trillion in 2022.&lt;ref&gt;Johnston and Williamson (2026).&lt;/ref&gt; For 2026 it is estimated at $32.4 trillion.&lt;ref&gt;[[w:United States|United States]], accessed 2026-04-30.&lt;/ref&gt;) 

A similar model is the [[w:BBC|BBC]]’s Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS), in which the BBC funds journalists to cover the work of local councils and other local public bodies, funded at £8 million per year, which is a little under 2 hundredths of a percent of the [[w:United Kingdom|UK]]'s GDP of £7.27 trillion.&lt;ref&gt;[[w:United Kingdom|United Kingdom]], accessed 2026-04-30.&lt;/ref&gt; 

Pickard (2023) ended by saying, &quot;Today we face a crossroads: technocracy and oligarchy from above or radical democracy and structural reform from below. ... [T]his is not just a journalism crisis: it is a
democracy crisis.&quot;

*[[/Introduction/]] including an exercise, asking all to discuss perceptions of the settlement of ''[[w:Dominion Voting Systems v. Fox News Network|Dominion Voting Systems v. Fox News Network]]'' in a friendly supportive manner with humans with whom they may vehemently disagree, because the alternative could be killing humans over misunderstandings. 

===Part I. The media and political economy===
# [[/The impact of the media on political economy since the time of the Pharaohs/]] describes how hierarchical societies prior to [[w:James VI and I|King James of the King James bible]] were divided between those who fought, prayed, and worked. It was the responsibility of those who prayed to convince those who worked to live in poverty while giving increasing shares of what they produced so those who fought and prayed could live lives of leisure and opulence. During the reign of King James, pamphlets and newspapers began to compete with the church for helping commoners understand their roles in society. This produced the Industrial Revolution and modern democracies. Media consolidation since World War II gradually slowed and then reversed this trend. 
# [[/Fox, the Great Depression, the Great Recession, and our future/]] describes the unprecedented performance of the US political economy during the presidency of Franklin Roosevelt (FDR), insisting that much of what FDR achieved can be replicated, giving a media system that supports honest discussion of the available evidence. 
# [[/Media consolidation, social media, and political polarization/]] (Combine from McChesney and Nichols discussing the [[w:Postal Service Act|US Postal Service Act]] of 1792 with [[Media concentration per Columbia History Professor Richard John]], the section on &quot;[[v:Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government#Threats from social media|Threats from social media]]&quot; in &quot;[[Information is a public good: Designing experiments to improve government]], and the comments by [[v:Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen says|Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen that, &quot;the shortest path to a click is anger or hate.&quot;]].

===Part II. The media and war===
# [[/Deterrence without threat/]] (Draft in [https://peaceworkskc.org/deterrence-without-threat/ &quot;Deterrence without threat&quot; on the website of PeaceWorks Kansas City], noting that the historical record is clear: Nations that have prepared for war often got war, not peace. This happens for at least two reasons: First, some leaders cannot resist the temptation to use force inappropriately, sometimes clandestinely provoking others to do things that are then denounced as &quot;unprovoked&quot;. Alternatively, potential adversaries may believe -- or claim -- that you are actually preparing a first strike, and they must move preemptively or lose their ability to retaliate adequately. We can avoid these possibilities with three supportive policies: [a] Legislation that ''prohibits'' projecting force beyond our own borders. [b] Civilian-based defense training in nonviolent noncooperation like what helped Denmark survive Nazi occupation with minimal damage. And [c] A media system that makes it harder for the people who control most of the money for the media to create an environment that makes it hard for common folk to understand, &quot;Why they hate us&quot;, and that encourages leaders to be more bellicose than would best support broadly shared peace and prosperity. It is naive to assume that (i) military command, control and communications systems never malfunction, (ii) potential adversaries will behave as we expect, and (iii) no one wants to initiate Armageddon. Supporters of the current US system claim that (i) is virtually foolproof, though [[w:Daniel Ellsberg|Daniel Ellsberg]], who was a nuclear war planner prior to releasing the Pentagon Papers, disagrees; see [[w:Gold Codes|Gold Codes]]. The other two assumptions are demonstrably false. Under current practice, major media can defame poor folk and foreigners with impunity. Major wars like the US-led invasions of Iraq in 2003, Afghanistan in 2001, and Vietnam decades earlier might have played out very differently if individual foreigners and foreign governments had successfully sued the major US media, especially the [[w:Big Three (American television)|Big three US television networks]], [[w:NBC|NBC]], [[w:CBS|CBS]], and [[w:American Broadcasting Company|ABC]], for defamation following the principle in ''[[w:New York Times Co. v. Sullivan|New York Times Co. v. Sullivan]]''.) Another policy for parties to the [[w:Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons|Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons]] (TPNW) would be to institute gradually increasing tariffs on trade with nuclear-weapon states. Free trade agreements supported by the [[w:World Trade Organization|World Trade Organization]] allow exemptions for national security and other objectives. Even a minor nuclear war between India and Pakistan would have a negative impact on the entirety of humanity. It therefore seems sensible for parties to the TPNW to institute gradually increasing tariffs on nuclear weapon states, not so great as to seriously impact the economies of parties to the TPNW but aggressive enough to gradually wean their economy from reliance on trace with nuclear-weapon states.

[[w:Bree Newsome#2015|twelve days later, the SC House of Reps]] voted to discontinue the use of the Confederate flag, and it was removed the next day.
# [[/Responding to a nuclear attack/]] (draft in [[Responding to a nuclear attack]]. Add a discussion of Russia's Poseidon nuclear powered unmanned underwater vehicle, armed with nuclear weapons. With that, cite the record of &quot;[[w:System accident|system accident]]s&quot;. Also add material from [[Nuclear weapons and effective defense]]). 
# [[/Threats from excessive government secrecy/]] (draft in [https://sanjosepeace.org/restrict-secrecy-more-than-data-collection/ &quot;Restrict secrecy more than data collection&quot;], adding material from [https://kkfi.org/program-episodes/does-us-government-secrecy-threaten-national-security/ Connelly (2023) ''The Declassification Engine: What History Reveals About America's Top Secrets''], [[Wikipedia:Moynihan Commission on Government Secrecy]] and [[1998 Embassy bombings and September 11]].

===Part III. Climate, immigrants, education, public health, and criminal justice===
# [[/Global warming/]] [Summarize research especially on conflicts of interest of major media in honestly reporting on this issue and the research on global warming itself and activities of groups concerned about this issue. Decompose into global population times CO2 equivalents per human.] 
# [[/Immigrants/]] [Summarize research documenting that [[w:Sanctuary city|sanctuary cities tend to have higher median incomes and no more crime than non-sanctuary jurisdictions]], and some studies report less crime. Moreover economists have documented that immigrants tend to be more entrepreneurial, overrepresented in patent applications, and generally increasing the rate of economic growth. See, e.g., Aghion et al. (2022) ''The power of creative destruction''; Aghion shared the 2025 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics with two others.] 
# [[/Education/]] (draft in [[Invest in children]].) 
# [[/Public health/]] [Draft in [[UN public health data]] to be revised to be consistent with Bezruchka (2023, 2025).]
# [[/Criminal justice/]] (The section on &quot;[[w:United States incarceration rate#Editorial policies of major media|Editorial policies of major media]]&quot; in &quot;[[Wikipedia:United States incarceration rate]]&quot; cites research claiming that within the range range of experience in the US political economy since 1925, the incarceration rate is uncorrelated with crime: It's a function of the public's perception of crime, and that's a function of the media.)
# [[/Substance abuse and addictive behavior/]] (Research in cited in &quot;[[Wikipedia:War on drugs]]&quot; insists that the US and the world would have fewer problems with substance abuse and addiction problems with 100 percent public funding for treatment programs and complete decriminalization of possession and use of retail quantities of addictive substances. We would also likely have fewer problems with immigrants, as that would make it harder for the US to intervene in the internal affairs of fohttps://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity:FAQ/Editing/Edit_summaryreign countries funded off the books, as exposed in the [[w:Iran–Contra affair|Iran–Contra affair]].)
# [[/Empower women and girls/]] [Cite research claiming that a primary restraint on population growth is empowering women and girls. Empowering women and girls is not just a matter of equity: It is also a means to reduce the threats of global warming, of increasing exposure to animal diseases and other problems that come with unrestrained population growth.]

==== Linked Open Exhibition ====
''Materialien und Aufgaben für das Modul „BIM-126-02, SoSe 2026, Worthington/Blümel” für Studierende der Hochschule Hannover. Die Materialien werden gemeinsam mit mehreren Kollegen aus dem [https://www.tib.eu/de/forschung-entwicklung/forschungsgruppen-und-labs/open-science Open Science Lab] der TIB Hannover erstellt.''

Projekt-GitHub-Repo: https://github.com/NFDI4Culture/linked-open-exhibition  

==== Zusammenfassung ====
Der achtteilige Kurs bietet eine Einführung in Linked Open Data (LOD) im Kontext von:

# Open Galleries Libraries Archives and Museums (GLAM) und 
# der Nutzung von Plattformen der Wikimedia Foundation.

Die folgenden Plattformen der Wikimedia Foundation werden verwendet: Wikidata, Wikibase, MediaWiki und Wikimedia Commons.

AI LLM wird in den folgenden Workflows verwendet: Code Assistant ''Copilot'' und eine Vielzahl von AI LLM-Chat-Diensten für die Dateierstellung und Konfigurationen zur Erstellung von SPARQL-Abfragen, Jinja 2.0-Vorlagen usw. 

Das „KI-Servicezentrum für Sensible und Kritische Infrastrukturen“ (KISSKI) kann für unbegrenztes ChatGPT5 genutzt werden: https://kisski.gwdg.de/leistungen/2-02-llm-service/ | https://chat-ai.academiccloud.de/chat  

Die verwendeten Methoden sind: Open-Source-Software, Open Science und Rapid Prototyping.

==== Linked Open Exhibition ====
Die Frage, die in diesem Kurs untersucht wird, lautet: Wie kann LOD genutzt werden, um Museumsausstellungen als Linked Open Exhibitions zu verbessern – als Aufzeichnung der Ausstellung, als Katalog der Ausstellungsstücke und für andere wichtige Daten? Als Beispiele '''dienen die Steigerung der Besucherzahlen von Ausstellungen und die Schaffung einer größeren Tiefe des Engagements'''.

Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Frage, wie LOD-Aufzeichnungen von '''Exponaten in einer Ausstellung''' erstellt werden können.

==== Lernpunkte – in der Reihenfolge ihrer Priorität ====

# '''Wikidata/Wikibase LOD-Konzepte:''' Objekte, Eigenschaften, Werte, Qualifikatoren, Wikibase-Schemas, Klassen, Lexeme, Wissensbasis und Wissensgraphen.
# '''Linked Open Data (LOD):''' Semantic Web, 5-Sterne-Bewertung, RDF/Triples, Ontologien, Taxonomien und kontrollierte Vokabulare.
# '''Verwendung von LOD-Quellen:''' Identifikatoren, PIDs, Informationsquellen, Medienquellen sowie Import- und Export-Tools.
# '''Datenmodellierung:''' Methodiken, Schemaverwendung, Visualisierung und Testen.
# '''Daten-Workflow-Tools:''' Git, IDE, KI-Code-Assistent (Copilot), KI-Chat, Verwendung von Wikimedia Foundation-Tools, Datenimport- und -export-Tools, Generierung von PIDs und Hinterlegung in einem wissenschaftlichen Repositorium.
# '''Datenpräsentation und Datennutzung:''' Ergebnisse des Wikidata Query Service, MediaWiki-Infoboxen, Verarbeitung von SPARQL-Abfragen durch KI-Chat.
# '''Open-Science-Praxis:''' Open-Source-Software, Open Notebook Science, Open Licensing, PIDs, FAIR-Datenprinzipien sowie ethische und bewährte Verfahren bei der Nutzung von KI.

==== Sitzungen ====
Die Sitzungen befassen sich mit der Katalogisierung von Ausstellungen des Sprengel Museums unter Verwendung von LOD und der Erstellung von Visualisierungen und Präsentationen.

'''Das Ziel des Lernens ist es, den Umgang''' mit '''LOD''' zu '''erlernen.''' Die Methode besteht darin, ausgehend von einem Kern einer „Ausstellung” „Exponate in einer Ausstellung” hinzuzufügen. Von Anfang an sind es die Studierenden, die die LOD erstellen. Dies beginnt mit minimalen Einträgen der Studierenden, die dann mit Identifikatoren, LOD-Medienquellen, Schemata usw. ergänzt werden. Schließlich wird gezeigt, wie die Daten so präsentiert werden können, dass sie dem „Anwendungsfall” entsprechen: '''die Besucherzahlen der Ausstellungen zu steigern und ein tieferes Engagement zu erreichen'''. Hier kommen Präsentationstechnologien zum Einsatz: MediaWiki-Infoboxen, Ergebnisse des Wikidata Query Service, KI-Chat-SPARQL-Abfragen und andere Funktionen usw.

==== Sitzung 1: Erstellung einer Ausstellung-Zeitleiste – Aufbau, Hinzufügen von Ausstellungen ====

# Erfassen Sie minimale Informationen zu einer Ausstellung in Wikidata als Linked Open Data: Titel, Museum, Datum usw. Beispiel: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q138547468 –  Siehe: Tabelle1 : ''Minimale Dateneinträge für eine Ausstellung''
# Zeigen Sie den Ausstellungseintrag in Wikidata an Ergebnisse des Abfragedienstes anzeigen Link (Zeitleiste und Grafik https://w.wiki/J8NJ | https://w.wiki/J8aS )
# Überprüfen Sie die Ausstellungseinträge.
# Behandeln Sie Themen, die durch die Erstellung eines LOD-Eintrags aufgeworfen werden: Wikidata-Grundlagen, bewährte Verfahren für Wikidata, Konsultation von Schemata, Bedeutung der Überprüfung und Verwendung von GitHub Issues, Vergleich der verfügbaren Daten – vorher und nachher.

==== Sitzung 2: Ausstellungskatalogisierung – Aufbau, Hinzufügen von Objekten, Künstlern, Katalogen ====

==== Sitzung 3: Museumsbesuch – Sprengel Museum (noch zu bestätigen) ====

==== Sitzung 4: Ausstellungskatalogisierung – Massenhinzufügungen: Hinzufügen von Objekten, Künstlern, Katalogen ====

==== Sitzung 1: Erstellung eines Ausstellungskalenders – Aufbau, Hinzufügen von Ausstellungen ====
Die Übung: Erstellen Sie einen Linked-Open-Data-Datensatz für eine Ausstellung mit Wikidata (Mindestangaben).

A. '''Erstellen des Ausstellungseintrags in Wikidata.'''

# Anmeldung bei Wikidata: https://www.wikidata.org/
# Halten Sie eine Quelle bereit, um Daten einzugeben, z. B.
#* https://www.sprengel-museum.de/ausstellungen/archiv
#* https://www.sprengel-museum.de/besuch?view=article&amp;id=65:publikationen&amp;catid=2:uncategorised
#* https://portal.dnb.de/opac/showFullRecord?currentResultId=sprengel+and+museum+and+ausstellung%26any&amp;currentPosition=1  
# Überprüfen Sie, ob es bereits einen Eintrag für die Ausstellung auf Wikidata gibt. Verwenden Sie dazu die Suchfunktion. 
# Erstellen Sie einen Eintrag oder bearbeiten Sie einen bestehenden Eintrag.
#* Hinweis: Überprüfen Sie, welche Sprache Sie verwenden. Wir werden Einträge in Deutsch und Englisch hinzufügen (beginnend mit Deutsch).
# Erstellen Sie die folgenden Dateneinträge in Wikidata, siehe: Tabelle 1: ''Minimale Dateneinträge für eine Ausstellung.''
# Überprüfen Sie die Wikidata-Einträge zur Ausstellung. Die Überprüfung erfolgt anhand von drei Fragen. Fügen Sie bei Bedarf Kommentare hinzu, Korrekturen können vorgenommen werden. Ergebnisse und Anmerkungen können auf der Diskussionsseite des Eintrags hinzugefügt werden, z. B. 
#* Alle Einträge vorhanden [   ]
#* Alle Einträge sind korrekt [   ]
#* Einträge sind in Deutsch und Englisch – im Rahmen des Zumutbaren [   ]

Ende von Sitzung 1.

==== Hausaufgabenübungen ====
1. Vervollständigen Sie Ihre zugewiesene Ausstellung. Stellen Sie sicher, dass alle Felder aus Tabelle 1 ausgefüllt sind. Wenn etwas nicht hinzugefügt werden kann, haben Sie zwei Möglichkeiten: A. Machen Sie eine Notiz in der Tabelle zur Ausstellungszuweisung oder B. Senden Sie eine E-Mail an  [mailto:Simon.worththington@tib.eu simon.worththington@tib.eu] , damit ich Ihnen bei der Lösung Ihres Problems helfen kann.

'''Hinweis: Wenn Sie während des Unterrichts keinen Ausstellungseintrag erstellt haben, stellen Sie sicher, dass dieser vor der nächsten Unterrichtsstunde fertiggestellt ist.'''

2. Erstellen Sie ein GitHub-Konto und fügen Sie Ihren GitHub-Namen neben Ihrem Namen in der Spalte „GitHub-Name” in der Tabelle zur Zuweisung der Ausstellungen hinzu.

3. Überprüfen Sie die Ausstellungseinträge Ihrer Klassenkameraden. Ihnen wurde allen ein Eintrag zur Überprüfung zugewiesen, siehe Tabelle zur Zuweisung der Ausstellungen. Ihr Name steht in Spalte G. Diese erste Überprüfung umfasst drei Fragen – kreuzen Sie die Kästchen an, um anzuzeigen, ob jeder Punkt ausgefüllt wurde, und fügen Sie entweder Kommentare hinzu oder korrigieren Sie den Wikidata-Ausstellungseintrag.

'''Hinweis: Wenn der Ihnen zugewiesene Ausstellungseintrag nicht von Ihrem Klassenkameraden erstellt wurde, kontaktieren Sie ihn bitte und bitten Sie ihn, den Eintrag zu vervollständigen.'''

Die Fragen lauten:

1. Sind alle erforderlichen Felder vorhanden?

2. Sind alle Felder korrekt ausgefüllt?

3. Gibt es einen deutschen und einen englischen Eintrag?

=== Sitzung 2: Ausstellungskatalogisierung – Aufbau, Hinzufügen von Objekten, Künstlern, Katalogen ===

==== Die Sitzung umfasst fünf Übungen: ====

# Ausstellungsaktualisierung
# Künstler
# Ausstellungskatalog
# AI LLM SPARQL-Experimente
# &lt;s&gt;Kunstwerk&lt;/s&gt;

==== Die Übungen umfassen die folgenden Konzepte: ====

==== Übungen ====

==== 1. Aktualisierung der Ausstellung ====

* Hausaufgabenüberprüfung: Füllen Sie alle Felder für eine Ausstellung aus. Überprüfen Sie die Ihnen zugewiesene Ausstellung, indem Sie die folgenden drei Fragen beantworten:

&lt;blockquote&gt;[ ] Sind alle erforderlichen Felder vorhanden?

[ ] Sind alle Felder korrekt ausgefüllt?

[ ] Gibt es einen Eintrag in Deutsch und Englisch&lt;/blockquote&gt;

* Für das Label. Wandeln Sie Wörter in Großbuchstaben in Satzschrift um. Verwenden Sie: https://convertcase.net/title-case-converter/ | Ändern Sie z. B. ADRIAN SAUER: TRUTH TABLESPECTRUM INTERNATIONALER PREIS FÜR FOTOGRAFIE DER STIFTUNG NIEDERSACHSEN in Adrian Sauer: Truth Tablespectrum Internationaler Preis Für Fotografie Der Stiftung Niedersachsen.
* Fügen Sie die englischen Versionen hinzu. Verwenden Sie DeepL zum Übersetzen: https://www.deepl.com/en/translator
** Titel: Fügen Sie den englischen Titel hinzu
* Fügen Sie Folgendes hinzu. Ändern Sie P710 Teilnehmer (Participant) in P921 zentrales Thema artists name.
** Qualifier zum zentralen Thema, um anzugeben, dass die Person Kunstwerke beisteuert.
* Verwenden Sie: Qualifier P170 creator und fügen Sie artist Q483501 hinzu (geben Sie „Künstler” ein, es wird automatisch vervollständigt)
* Referenz: Gemeinsame Normdatei (GND) ID für eine Person, z. B. Gabriela Jolowicz https://d-nb.info/gnd/134184963 | Suchen Sie den Namen der Person und kopieren Sie den letzten Teil der Nummer 134184963
* Diskussionsseite: Fügen Sie die Überprüfungsfragen für Ihren Wikidata-Eintrag hinzu:

&lt;blockquote&gt;[ ] Sind alle erforderlichen Felder vorhanden?

[ ] Sind alle Felder korrekt ausgefüllt?

[ ] Gibt es einen Eintrag in Deutsch und Englisch?&lt;/blockquote&gt;Beachten Sie die nützlichen Links, die Ihnen mehr über verbundene Linked Open Data verraten!

Hinweis: SPARQL-Abfrage zur Anzeige des Datenmodells. Eigenschaften und Werte. Ergebnisse: https://w.wiki/JMLX Erstellt mit Gemini AI: https://gemini.google.com/share/c43f34a67f67

==== Konzepte ====

* Wikidata-Teile – siehe Informationen und Diagramm:
** https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Introduction/de
** https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Introduction#/media/File:Datamodel_in_Wikidata.svg
* Anwendung eines Überprüfungsprozesses mithilfe von Diskussionsseiten
* Hinzufügen von Referenzen
* Verwendung einer LOD-Quelle – Ein Normdatensatz Gemeinsame Normdatei (GND) ID &lt;nowiki&gt;https://portal.dnb.de/opac.htm&lt;/nowiki&gt;
* SPARQL-Abfrage
---

==== 2. Künstler ====
Das Ziel hierbei ist es, sicherzustellen, dass alle Künstler in die Ausstellungsliste aufgenommen wurden, und anschließend die bestehenden Künstlereinträge zu überprüfen.

Später wird eine SPARQL-Abfrage durchgeführt, um Aussagen über alle Künstler in unserem Datensatz zu vergleichen.

Bevor Sie die Künstereinträge überprüfen, stellen Sie sicher, dass alle Künstler im Ausstellungseintrag aufgeführt sind, mit dem Qualifikationsmerkmal „Künstler” und einem Verweis auf ihren GND-Datensatz.

==== 3. Ausstellungskatalog ====
Suchen Sie an beiden Orten nach Informationen zum Katalog Ihrer zugewiesenen Ausstellung.

Sprengel Museum Publikationskatalog – https://www.sprengel-museum.de/besuch?view=article&amp;id=65:publikationen&amp;catid=2:uncategorised

DND (Beispiel) Sie können nach dem Namen der Ausstellung oder dem Sprengel Museum suchen – https://portal.dnb.de/opac/simpleSearch?query=sprengel+and+museum+and+ausstellung&amp;cqlMode=true

Hinweis: Notieren Sie sich alle Links, die Sie in der Tabelle mit den Ausstellungslisten finden.

===== Erstellen Sie einen Wikidata-Eintrag für den Katalog. =====
Hinweis: Suchen Sie zunächst nach der Veröffentlichung, bevor Sie einen Wikidata-Eintrag erstellen. Verwenden Sie den Titel, die ISBN und die GND.

Ein Beispiel für eine Veröffentlichung aus DNB und Sprengel Shop.

==== 4. AI LLM SPARQL-Experimente ====
Wikidata verfügt über eine SPARQL-Schnittstelle, über die die LOD in Wikidata durchsucht (abgefragt) und auf verschiedene Arten, in verschiedenen Formaten und Visualisierungen ausgegeben werden kann. Außerdem kann sie im Web gespeichert werden.

Wir werden den AI LLM-Chat verwenden, um SPARQL-Abfragen zu generieren.

Später werden wir die Grundlagen des Schreibens einer SPARQL-Abfrage lernen. Aber zunächst wollen wir sehen, wie sie generiert werden, welche Optionen es gibt und wie sie kreativ eingesetzt werden können.

Die Verwendung von Chat-Diensten oder Code-Assistenten kann eine wertvolle Möglichkeit sein, um neue Technologien kennenzulernen.

Einige davon können auch über KISSKI genutzt werden.

Das „KI-Servicezentrum für Sensible und Kritische Infrastrukturen“ (KISSKI) kann für unbegrenztes ChatGPT5 genutzt werden: https://kisski.gwdg.de/leistungen/2-02-llm-service/ | https://chat-ai.academiccloud.de/chat

==== Die Übung ====
Die Gruppe wird in mehrere Zoom-Breakout-Gruppen aufgeteilt und verbringt dann 20 Minuten damit, SPARQL-Abfragen und andere kreative Anwendungen zu generieren.

Fügen Sie die Ergebnisse hier ein: https://tib.cloud/apps/files/files/8251374?dir=/NFDI4Culture/HsH/BIM26/bim26-shared&amp;editing=false&amp;openfile=true

Jedem Raum wird eine Chat-Engine zugewiesen.

Es gibt maximal vier Gruppen.

·      Gruppe Nr. 1: ChatGPT

·      Gruppe Nr. 2: Claude

·      Gruppe Nr. 3: Google Gemini

·       Gruppe Nr. 4: Meta AI

==== Beispielübung ====
Chatbots können eine SPARQL-Abfrage oder eine Wikidata-Adresse lesen.

z. B.

* Artikel https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q138547468
* Abfragegrafik https://w.wiki/JPNc
* Abfragetidsachse https://w.wiki/JPPN
* Artikel Sprengel Museum https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q510144

Anschließend kann der Chatbot angewiesen werden, auf Grundlage der bereitgestellten Informationen bestimmte Aktionen auszuführen.

Sie sollten den Chatbot bitten, Wikidata-SPARQL-Abfragen zu generieren, und diese Abfragen dann in die SPARQL-Abfrageoberfläche einfügen. https://query.wikidata.org/

Verwenden Sie diese Beispiele und entwickeln Sie Ihre eigenen:

# Dashboard erstellen (Anzahl der Dinge)
# Inventar erstellen (Tabelle)
# Graphdatenmodell erstellen

Einige SPARQL-Abfragen

·       Karte der Geburtsorte von Künstlern – https://w.wiki/JPT3

·       Liste der Ausstellungen – https://w.wiki/JPR3

·       Als Darstellung der Ausstellungen – https://w.wiki/J8aS

==== Hausaufgabe: Sitzung 2 ====
Erstellen Sie ein Bottom-up-Datenmodell eines Kunstwerks in einer Ausstellung. Fügen Sie nur die minimal erforderlichen Informationen hinzu. Das Ergebnis sollte eine Tabelle sein, wie sie für Ausstellung, Künstler und Katalog dargestellt wird. Die Tabelle sollte Eigenschaften und Attribute enthalten. Sie sollten die oben genannten Schemata zu Rate ziehen. Sie können KI verwenden, aber geben Sie die KI an und verlinken Sie sie mit Ihrer Frage. Wenn Sie KI verwenden, überprüfen Sie die Ergebnisse und machen Sie sich Notizen darüber, was Sie geändert haben.

Hinweis: Überlegen Sie, wie die Teile miteinander in Beziehung stehen, was Sie hinzufügen müssen und was bereits in Wikidata vorhanden ist.

Reichen Sie Ihre Ergebnisse als Tabelle oder Spreadsheet ein.

===== Aufgaben =====

* 	Ausstellung ändern
* 	Notebook ausführen
* 	Quarto ausführen und Vorschau anzeigen
* Auf Ihren	GitHub Pages veröffentlichen

===== Schritt für Schritt =====
'''Teil 1: Arbeitsumgebung'''

'''''HINWEIS: Sollten bei der lokalen Ausführung Probleme auftreten, nutzen Sie bitte die Online-Option von Codespace.'''''

# Erstelle ein GitHub-Konto – https://github.com/
# Richte die Zwei-Faktor-Authentifizierung (2FA) ein – in der Regel auf dem Handy (Google Authenticator)
# Installiere VSCode – https://code.visualstudio.com/download
# Installiere GitHub Desktop – https://desktop.github.com/download/
# Füge dein GitHub-Konto hinzu, wenn du dazu aufgefordert wirst, und verwende die 2FA

Schritt 2: Der Prototyp

# Forken Sie das Repository: https://github.com/mrchristian/prototype
# Wenn Sie lokal arbeiten, fahren Sie fort – wenn Sie Codespace verwenden, starten Sie Codespace (siehe unten und fahren Sie dann fort)
# Testen Sie Quarto im Terminal:
## quarto check
## quarto render
## quarto preview (Strg+C – zum Beenden)
# Falls es nicht funktioniert, führen Sie Quarto über den Agent aus
# Ändern Sie die Wikidata-Ausstellung im Notebook
# Notebook ausführen
# quarto render und quarto preview ausführen
# Alles speichern
# Git: Nachricht, Commit und Push
# Auf GitHub.com dein Repository
## Seiten aktivieren: GitHub Actions
## Code: Über das Zahnrad – Klicke auf „Meine GitHub Pages verwenden“
## Registerkarte „Actions“: Quarto-Projekt veröffentlichen
# ENDE – Wiederholen :-)

===== Codespace-Option: =====
Videolink: https://tib.cloud/s/LDtkN6QsdFkGGR6 (10 Minuten Zeit)

Codespace ist eine virtuelle Maschine, die über GitHub gestartet werden kann.

Das Repository enthält eine Dev-Container-Konfiguration, sodass du vollständig im Browser arbeiten kannst, ohne etwas lokal installieren zu müssen.

1.    Klicke auf der Repository-Seite auf GitHub auf „Code“ → „Codespaces“ → „Codespace erstellen“ auf der Hauptseite.

2.    Warte, bis der Container erstellt ist – Python-Pakete aus der Datei „requirements.txt“ werden automatisch installiert – dies dauert etwa 5 Minuten.

3.    Sobald alles installiert ist, kann der Codespace jederzeit genutzt werden. Er fährt automatisch herunter, wenn er nicht genutzt wird, und kann jederzeit neu gestartet werden.

4.    In Codespace geleistete Arbeit muss zurück ins Repository gepusht werden.

5.    Wenn Codespace 28 Tage lang nicht genutzt wird, wird der Codespace gelöscht.

Prototyp: https://nfdi4culture.github.io/linked-open-exhibition/ 

Repo: https://nfdi4culture.github.io/linked-open-exhibition/

Warum?

·      Rapid Prototyping wird in diesem Zusammenhang genutzt, um mehr über „Datenmodellierung mit Linked Open Data“ zu lernen. 

'''''Anmerkung: Die hier erworbenen Fähigkeiten und Erfahrungen im Bereich der Datenmodellierung sind eine Kernkompetenz, die eine Grundlage für die Erstellung von Datenmodellen in einer Vielzahl von beruflichen Kontexten bildet.'''''

◦  Wie man Datenmodellierung durchführt

◦  Zu verwendende Methoden: Bottom-up; KISS (Keep it Short and Simple); Top-down

◦  Bewertung und Validierung

◦  Ein Datenmodell operationalisieren

◦  Benutzertests

◦  Bewährte Verfahren, einschließlich Open-Science-Praktiken, z. B. die FAIR-Datenprinzipien

◦  Experimente mit KI-LLMs und agentischer Programmierung im Arbeitsablauf

·      Rapid Prototyping ist eine Design-Forschungsmethodik – das heißt, Wissen durch praktisches Tun zu schaffen oder zu entdecken.

Was?

Erstellen Sie mit der ganzen Klasse einen Website-Prototyp: https://nfdi4culture.github.io/linked-open-exhibition/

Die Website besteht aus drei datengesteuerten Teilprojekten:

1.    Manuelle Wikidata-Einträge für die Website des Sprengel Museums – Einträge der Klasse bereits erstellt

2.    Massen-Ausstellungseinträge, abgeleitet aus über 600 DNB-Einträgen zum „Sprengel Museum“ – importiert

3.    HsH-Bibliotheksdatensätze für eine Suche zum Sprengel Museum und ein Scan eines Sprengel-Museum-Katalogs für Text- und Daten-Mining (TDM) – noch zu erledigen

Wie?

Simon Worthington wird als Publikationsmanager fungieren. Dies umfasst die Ausführung oder Steuerung komplexer Softwareteile.

Für einige Teile wird agentische Codierung mit Copilot verwendet (erprobt).

Die Klasse ist in drei Teams für die Teilprojekte aufgeteilt: 

1.    Website zu den Ausstellungen des Sprengel Museums; 

2.    DNB-Einträge „Sprengel Museum“

3.    Text- und Data-Mining: Bibliothekskatalog Sprengel Museum

Jedes Team führt für seinen Teil die gleichen Aufgaben durch, um eine Runde der Datenmodellierung abzuschließen:

1.    Daten sammeln – Bottom-up-Methode

2.    Validierung der Daten – Top-down-Methode

3.    Präsentation der Daten – Quarto-Website „Linked Open Exhibitions“

Ziel: Definition of Done (DoD) ''Anmerkung: Entwicklerjargon''

·      Ein dokumentiertes Datenmodell (Tabelle) mit Diagramm (Mermaid, GraphVis oder Draw.io)

·      Zuordnung des Datenmodells zu Schemata (Tabelle)

·      Idee zur Darstellung der Daten für jeden Unterabschnitt im Prototyp und Umsetzung mit Unterstützung des Publication Managers, z. B. für DNB eine chronologische Liste von Ausstellungen mit Bildern.

·      Dokumentation der Nutzung von KI-LLM als Assistent, Quellenangaben und Kommentare zu bewährten Verfahren

·      Datenherkunft und Ausfüllen der Checkliste für bewährte Praktiken

·      Das Endergebnis „Class Project – Prototyping: Linked Open Exhibitions“ wird als institutionelle Hinterlegung bei [https://zenodo.org/ Zenodo] veröffentlicht. 

=== --- ===

=== Aktivität Nr. 1: Datenerhebung und Bottom-up-Datenmodellierung ===
Bestätigen, erstellen oder erweitern Sie bestehende Datenmodelle, indem Sie die Quelle betrachten. Jedes Projekt hat eine Quelle:

* ·      Team Nr. 1: Website des Sprengel Museums, Ausstellungslisten: 

◦  https://www.sprengel-museum.de/ und 

◦  CSV-Tabelle mit den eingegebenen Ausstellungen GitHub | [https://tib.cloud/s/fncf8W6pXs8qgiq Tabelle TIB Cloud] (passwortgeschützt)

◦  Prototyp: https://nfdi4culture.github.io/linked-open-exhibition/exhibitions.html 

* ·      Team Nr. 2: DNB-Einträge zur Suche nach „Sprengel Museum“:

◦  https://portal.dnb.de/opac/moveDown?currentResultId=Sprengel+and+Museum%26any&amp;categoryId=books | https://wikibase.wbworkshop.tibwiki.io/ 

◦  CSV https://github.com/NFDI4Culture/linked-open-exhibition/blob/main/catalogues/sprengel_exhibitions.csv

◦  Bilder von Buchumschlägen https://github.com/NFDI4Culture/linked-open-exhibition/tree/main/catalogues/images 

* ·       Team Nr. 3: Informationen der HsH-Bibliothek zu Katalogen für das „Sprengel Museum“ :

◦  https://katalog.bib.hs-hannover.de/vufind/Search/Results?lookfor=Sprengel%2BMuseum

◦  Team 3 muss bei Null anfangen, da wir bislang noch keinen Bibliotheksdatensatz oder Eintrag in einem Ausstellungsdatenmodell haben. Tipp: Schaut euch die anderen Modelle an, um mit dem Aufbau eurer Datenmodelle zu beginnen. 

'''&gt;&gt;&gt; Hier zum Datenmodell hinzufügen:''' https://tib.cloud/s/PicTdwCEqCQ6pBp (passwortgeschützt) 

==== ZIEL ====
Sicherstellen, dass das Datenmodell die Quelle abbilden kann. Gibt es genügend Einträge, um die Bestandteile der Quelle zu beschreiben?

Der Prozess ist iterativ, das heißt, er wird immer wieder wiederholt, wobei Verbesserungen und Änderungen vorgenommen werden. 

==== AUFGABEN ====
·      Bearbeiten Sie den violett-grauen Bereich; der grüne Bereich wird in der nächsten Aktivität bearbeitet

·      Überprüfen und korrigieren Sie vorhandene Informationen

·      Fügen Sie neue Konzepte hinzu, falls die Quelle dies erfordert

·      Orangefarbene Bereiche müssen ausgefüllt werden. Die Zellen müssen möglicherweise bearbeitet oder ergänzt werden.

·      Datentypen finden Sie ausschließlich auf den Eigenschaftsseiten. Elemente (QIDs) haben keine Datentypen, unter „https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P1476&lt;nowiki/&gt;“ unter der Bezeichnung „ “ ''Datentyp''

·      URI entspricht einer URL

=== Tipps ===

* Schau dir andere Beispiele auf     Wikidata an: Künstler, Ausstellungen, Kataloge, bibliografische Einträge     oder Objekte in einer Ausstellung.
* Verwenden Sie eine KI, um     Schemaerklärungen oder Optionen nachzuschlagen. Registrieren Sie sich bei     KISSKI, um eine bessere KI-Datenschutznutzung zu erhalten. 

=== Aktivität Nr. 2: Validierung der Top-Down-Datenmodellierung ===
·      Team 1: Website des Sprengel Museums

·      Team 2: DNB-Einträge zur Suche nach „Sprengel Museum“   

·      Team 3: Informationen der HsH-Bibliothek zu Katalogen zum „Sprengel Museum“

==== ZIEL ====
Alle Konzepte abbilden

==== AUFGABEN ====
Das Konzept in den verschiedenen Ressourcen nachschlagen und Verknüpfungen hinzufügen,

=== Arbeitszeit: Zeitfenster zur Überprüfung des laufenden „Tech Stack“ oder zur Klärung sonstiger Fragen ===

''Materials and Tasks for the module &quot;BIM-126-02, SoSe 2026, Worthington/Blümel&quot; for students at Hochschule Hannover. The materials are prepared with several colleagues from the [https://www.tib.eu/de/forschung-entwicklung/forschungsgruppen-und-labs/open-science Open Science Lab at TIB] Hannover.''

Project GitHub repo: https://github.com/NFDI4Culture/linked-open-exhibition 

==== Summary ====
The eight session course covers an introduction to Linked Open Data (LOD) in the context of :

# Open Galleries Libraries Archives and Museums (GLAM), and; 
# The use of Wikimedia Foundation platforms.

The Wikimedia Foundation platforms that will be used are: Wikidata; Wikibase, MediaWiki, and  Wikimedia Commons.

AI LLM will be used in the workflows: Code assistant ''copilot'', and a variety of AI LLM chat services for file generation and configurations to create SPARQL queries, Jinja 2.0 templates, etc. 

„KI-Servicezentrum für Sensible und Kritische Infrastrukturen“ (KISSKI) can be used for unmetered ChatGPT5 https://kisski.gwdg.de/leistungen/2-02-llm-service/ | https://chat-ai.academiccloud.de/chat  

The Methodologies employed are: Open-source software, Open Science, and rapid prototyping.

==== Linked Open Exhibition ====
The question being explored for the class is how can LOD be uséd to benefit museum exhibitions as Linked Open Exhibitions – a record of the exhibition, a catalogues of items in an exhibition, and other important data? As examples '''to gain exhibitions increased visitors numbers and create greater depth of engagement'''.

With a focus of the question on how to make LOD records of '''items in an exhibition'''.

==== Learning points – In order of priority ====

# '''Wikidata/Wikibase LOD concepts:''' Items, Properties, Values, Qualifiers, Wikibase schemas, Classes, Lexemes, Knowledge Base, and Knowledge Graphs.
# '''Linked Open Data (LOD):''' Semantic web, 5 star, RDF/Triples, Ontologies, Taxonomies, and controlled vocabularies.
# '''Using LOD source:''' Identifiers, PIDs, information sources, media sources, and import and export tooling.
# '''Data modelling:''' Methodologies, schema use, visualisation, and testing.
# '''Data workflow tools:''' Git, IDE, AI code assistant (copilot), AI Chat, using Wikimedia Foundation tooling, data import and export tools, generating PIDs and making deposits in a scholarly repository.
# '''Data presentation and data use:''' Wikidata Query Service results, MediaWiki infoboxes, AI Chat SPARQL query processing.
# '''Open Science practice:''' Open-source software, Open Notebook Science, Open Licencing, PIDs, FAIR Data Principles, and ethical and good practice AI use.

==== Sessions ====
The sessions would be about cataloguing Sprengel Museum exhibitions using LOD and how to make visualisations and presentations.

'''Learning to use LOD is the goal of the learning.''' The method will be to build out from a kernel of an ‘exhibition’ and add ‘item in an exhibition’. From the start the students will be the ones who make the LOD. This will start with minimal entries my by the students, then layering these up with – Identifiers, LOD Media sources, schemas, etc. And finally moving onto how to present the data in a way that satisfies the ‘use case’: '''to gain exhibitions increased visitors numbers and create greater depth of engagement'''. Here presentation technologies are used: MediaWiki infoboxes, Wikidata Query Service results, AI Chat SPARQL queries and other features, etc.

===== Session 1: Exhibition timeline creation - build out, add exhibitions =====

# Record minimal information for an exhibition in Wikidata as Linked Open Data: Title, museum, date, etc. e.g., https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q138547468 –  See: Table 1: ''Minimal data entries for an exhibition''
# View the exhibition record in Wikidata Query Service results link (timeline and graph https://w.wiki/J8NJ | https://w.wiki/J8aS )
# Review exhibition entries.
# Cover topics raised by making a LOD entry: Wikidata basics, Wikidata good practice, consulting schemas, importance of review and using GitHub Issues, comparing available data – before and after.

===== Session 2: Exhibition cataloguing - build up, add items, artists, catalogues =====

===== Session 3: Museum visit - Sprengel Museum =====

===== Session 4: Schemas and Prototyping (the end of class project) =====

===== Session 5: Prototype Creation: Data entry, visualisation, and presentation =====

===== Session 6: Prototype Creation: Data entry, visualisation, and presentation =====

===== Session 7: Prototype Creation: Data entry, visualisation, and presentation =====

===== Session 8: Prototype Creation: Data entry, visualisation, and presentation =====
---

==== Session 1: Exhibition timeline creation - build out, add exhibitions ====
The exercise: Create a Linked Open Data record for an exhibition using Wikidata (minimal entry).

A. '''Creating the exhibition entry in Wikidata.'''

# Login to Wikidata: https://www.wikidata.org/
# Have a source at hand to make a data entry, e.g.,
#* https://www.sprengel-museum.de/ausstellungen/archiv
#* https://www.sprengel-museum.de/besuch?view=article&amp;id=65:publikationen&amp;catid=2:uncategorised
#* https://portal.dnb.de/opac/showFullRecord?currentResultId=sprengel+and+museum+and+ausstellung%26any&amp;currentPosition=1
# Check there is no existing entry for the exhibition is on Wikidata. Use the search function. 
# Create an item or edit an existing item.
#* Note: Check which language you are using. We will be adding Deutsch and English entries (starting with Deutsch).
# Create the following data entries in Wikidata, see: Table 1: ''Minimal data entries for an exhibition.''
# Review exhibition Wikidata entries. Review is carried out by using three questions. Add comments if needed, corrections can be made. Results and notes can be added to the Discussion Page of the entry, e.g., 
#* All entries present [   ]
#* All entries correct [   ]
#* Entries are in Deutsch and English – within reason [   ]

# Complete your allocated exhibition. Make sure all fields are complete from Table 1. If something cannot be added, either: A. Make a note in the exhibition allocation spreadsheet, or B. Send and email to [mailto:Simon.worththington@tib.eu simon.worththington@tib.eu] and I will help resolve your issue.  '''Note: If you did not create an exhibition entry during the class make sure one is complete before the next class.'''
# Create a GitHub account and add your GitHub handle next to your name, column ‘GitHub handle’,  in the exhibition allocation spreadsheet.
# Review your classmates exhibition entries. You have all been allocated a entry to review, see the Exhibition Allocation spreadsheet. Your name will be in column G. This first review has three questions – tick the boxes to show if each item has been complete and either add comments or correct the Wikidata exhibition entry.  '''Note: If your allocated Exhibition entry hasn’t been made by you classmate then please contact them and ask them to complete the entry.'''  Questions are:
## Are all the required fields present?
## Are all the fields correct?
## Is there an Deutsch and English entry?
---

==== Session 2: Exhibition cataloguing - build up, add items, artists, catalogues ====
The session has five exercies:

# Exhibition update
# Artist
# Exhibition catalogue
# AI LLM SPARQL experiments
# &lt;s&gt;Artwork&lt;/s&gt;

The exercises include the following concepts:

==== Exercises ====

==== 1. Exhibition updates ====

* Homework review: Complete all fields for an exhibition. Review your assigned review exhibition answering the three questions:

&lt;blockquote&gt;[ ] Sind alle erforderlichen Felder vorhanden?

[ ] Sind alle Felder korrekt ausgefüllt?

[ ] Gibt es einen Eintrag in Deutsch und Englisch&lt;/blockquote&gt;

* For the label. Convert words in all caps to sentence case. Use: https://convertcase.net/title-case-converter/ | Change from, e.g., ADRIAN SAUER: TRUTH TABLESPECTRUM INTERNATIONALER PREIS FÜR FOTOGRAFIE DER STIFTUNG NIEDERSACHSEN to  Adrian Sauer: Truth Tablespectrum Internationaler Preis Für Fotografie Der Stiftung Niedersachsen.

* Add the English language versions. Use DeepL to translate: https://www.deepl.com/en/translator
** Title: Add English title

* Add the following. Change P710 Teilnehmer (Participant) to P921 zentrales Thema '''artists name.''' 
** Qualifier on central theme to indicate the person is contributing artwork.

* Use: Qualifier P170 creator and add artist Q483501 (type artists and it will automcomplete)

* Reference: Gemeinsame Normdatei (GND) ID for a person, e.g., Gabriela Jolowicz https://d-nb.info/gnd/134184963 | Search your persons name and copy in the last part of number 134184963
* Talk page: Add in the review questions for your Wikidata entry:

&lt;blockquote&gt;[ ] Sind alle erforderlichen Felder vorhanden?

[ ] Sind alle Felder korrekt ausgefüllt?

[ ] Gibt es einen Eintrag in Deutsch und Englisch?&lt;/blockquote&gt;Notice the useful links that tell you more about connected Linked Open Data!

Note: SPARQL query showing data model. Properties and and values. Results: https://w.wiki/JMLX Made with Gemini AI: https://gemini.google.com/share/c43f34a67f67

==== Concepts ====

* Wikidata parts – see about and diagram:
** https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Introduction/de
** https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Introduction#/media/File:Datamodel_in_Wikidata.svg
* Applying a review process using Talk pages
* Adding References
* Using a type of LOD source – '''An authority record''' Gemeinsame Normdatei (GND) ID https://portal.dnb.de/opac.htm  
* SPARQL query

---

==== 2. Artists ====
The objective here is to ensure all artists have been included in exhibition listing and to then review the existing artists entry.

Later a SPARQL query will be made to compare statements about all the artists in our dataset.

* Before reviewing artists items make sure all artists have been listed in the exhibition item, with qualifier of being an artist and a reference to their GND record.

==== 4. AI LLM SPARQL experiments ====
The Wikidata has a SPARQL interface where the LOD in Wikidata can be searched (queried) and outputted in a number of ways, formats, and a visualisations. As well as being saved on the web.

We will us AI LLM chat to generate SPARQL queries.

Later we will learn the fundamentals of writing a SPARQL query. But for the moment we want to see how they have be generated, the options, and creative applications.

Using chat services or code assistants can be a valuable way to learn about new technologies.

Some of these can also be used via KISSKI

„KI-Servicezentrum für Sensible und Kritische Infrastrukturen“ (KISSKI) can be used for unmetered ChatGPT5 https://kisski.gwdg.de/leistungen/2-02-llm-service/ | https://chat-ai.academiccloud.de/chat  

=== The exercise ===
The group will be split into a number of Zoom breakout groups and then the group spends 20 minutes experimenting generating SPARQL queries and other creative applications.

Paste in results here: https://tib.cloud/apps/files/files/8251374?dir=/NFDI4Culture/HsH/BIM26/bim26-shared&amp;editing=false&amp;openfile=true 

Each room is assigned a Chat engine.

Maximum there will be four groups.

·      Group #1: '''ChatGPT'''

·      Group #2: '''Claude'''

·      Group #3: '''Google Gemini'''

·       Group #4: '''Meta AI'''

=== Example exercise ===
Chat bots can read  a SPARQL query or a Wikidata address.

e.g.,

Item https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q138547468

query graph https://w.wiki/JPNc

query timeline https://w.wiki/JPPN

Item Sprengel Museum https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q510144 

Then the chatbot can be instructed to do things based on the information provided.

You should ask the chat bot to generate Wikidata SPARQL queries and then paste the queries into the SPARQL querie interface. https://query.wikidata.org/

Use these examples and invent your own:

# Create dashboard (count of things)
# Create inventory (table)
# Create graph data model

Some output SPARQL queries

·       Map of artists place of birth - https://w.wiki/JPT3 

·       List of exhibitions - https://w.wiki/JPR3 

·       As plot of exhibitions - https://w.wiki/J8aS

==== Homework: Session 2 ====
Create a bottom up  data model of an artwork in an exhibition. Include only the minimum information needed. The result should be a table like the ones presented for exhibition, artist, and catalogue. The table should include properties and attributes. You should consult the schemas mentioned above. You can use AI but attribute the AI and link to your question. If you use AI review the results and make notes about what you changed.

Note: Think about how parts are related and what you need to add and what already exists in Wikidata.

Submit your results as a spreadsheet or table.  

===== Session 3: Museum visit - Sprengel Museum =====
19 March 2026

===== Session #4: Schemas and Prototyping (the end of class project) =====

===== Recap and outline =====
Done

* Creating exhibition entries in Wikidata
* Filling our data models for Artist and Catalogue
* Exploring the museum and its activities to help steer the prototype

To do

* Decide on the ideas for the prototype
* Data model for items in an exhibition (Artwork and Exhibition)
* Complete a data model for the end of the project that can be used by museums and complies to the sector standards – CIDOC and Wikidata.

===== What have we learned about the ‘Museum’s Story’ =====
TBC

===== Schemas =====
An opportunity to become familiar with how Linked Open Data is structured using common agreements on  working practices.

Over the period of the course a data model will be developed and finalised to describe ‘items in an exhibition’. The data model will be published  for community consultation and testing.

'''Requirements'''

# A laptop or computer where you can install VScode
# You will need 2FA on your mobile (optional)
# Create a GitHub account
# Install VScode
# Connect Github account to VScode
# Create GitHub reposoitory

'''Fork the following repository:''' https://github.com/mrchristian/prototype 

'''Model: Auto'''

'''How the repo was setup. Agent promts:'''&lt;blockquote&gt;''I want to run a Quarto website project, please setup the basics. The project will be published on GitHub Pages. Set the output directory to docs.'' &lt;/blockquote&gt;Create a page for the quarto project that retrieves the data used for thie Wikidata item and renders it as  professional webpage ''&lt;Insert your exhibition here – or use this one&gt;''  https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q138547468 The approach should create a SPARQL query for the data and then render this as HTML using a Jupyter Notebook.

All entries: https://tib.cloud/s/fncf8W6pXs8qgiq (needs password)

===== Tasks =====

* Change exhibition - manual
* Run Jupyter Notebook 
* Run and preview Quarto 
* Publish to your GitHub Pages 

===== Step-by-step =====

====== Part one: Working environment ======
'''''NOTE: If you are having problems running locally then use the Codespace online option.'''''

# Create GitHub account - https://github.com/
# Have 2FA available - usually on mobile (Google authenticator) (optional)
# Install VSCode - https://code.visualstudio.com/download
# Install GitHub Desktop - https://desktop.github.com/download/
# Add Github account when prompted, use 2FA

====== Step two: The prototype ======
# Fork the repository:  https://github.com/mrchristian/prototype
# If working locally continue - if using Codespace - launch Codespace (see below and then continue)
# Test Quarto in the Terminal: 
## &lt;code&gt;quarto check&lt;/code&gt; 
## &lt;code&gt;quarto render&lt;/code&gt;
## &lt;code&gt;quarto preview&lt;/code&gt; (control C - to stop)
# If not working run Quarto from Agent

# Run notebook
# Run &lt;code&gt;quarto render&lt;/code&gt; &lt;code&gt;quarto preview&lt;/code&gt;
# Save all (or use auto save)
# Git: Message, Commit and Push
# On GitHub.com your repository
## Turn on Pages: GitHub Actions
## Code: About cog - Click use my GitHub Pages
## Actions tab: Publish Quarto Project
# ENDE - Rinse repeat  :-)

===== Codespace option: =====
Videolink: https://tib.cloud/s/LDtkN6QsdFkGGR6 (10 Minuten Zeit)

Codespace is an online Virtual Machine which can be launched from GitHub.

The repository includes a Dev Container configuration so you can work entirely in the browser without installing anything locally.

# On the repository page on GitHub, click Code → Codespaces → Create codespace on main.
# Wait for the container to build — Python packages from &lt;code&gt;requirements.txt&lt;/code&gt; are installed automatically - about 5 minutes.
# Once everything is installed the Codespace can be used anytime. It automatically shutsdown when left alone and can be restarted any time.
# Work done in Codespace must be pushed back to the repository.
# If Codespace is not used for 28 days the Codespace is deleted.

Repo: https://nfdi4culture.github.io/linked-open-exhibition/

Why?

* Rapid Prototyping in this context is used to learn about ‘Data Modeling using Linked Open Data’.   '''''NB: The data modeling skills and experience learned here is a core competence that gives a foundation to be able to create data models in a wide set of professional contexts.'''''
** How to do data modeling
** To use method: Bottom-up; KISS (Keep it Short and Simple); Top-down
** Evaluation and validation
** Operationalize a data model
** User testing
** Good practice, including Open Scholarship (Open Science) practice. e.g. FAIR Data Principles
** Experiment with AI LLMs and agentic coding in the workflow
* Rapid Prototyping is a Design Research methodology – meaning to create or discover knowledge by doing.

What?

Create a website prototype a the whole class: https://nfdi4culture.github.io/linked-open-exhibition/

The website is made of three data driven sub-projects:

# Manual Wikidata entries for Sprengel Museum website – class entries already made
# Bulk exhibition entries derived from 600+ DNB records for ‘Sprengel Museum’ - imported
# HsH Library information records for a search on the Sprengel Museum and one scan of a Sprengel Museum catalogue for Text and Data Mining (TDM) – to do

How?

Simon Worthington will act as Publication Manager. This involves running or guiding complex software parts.

Copilot agentic coding will be used (experimented with) for some parts.

Class is divided into three teams of the sub-projects:  

# Sprengel Museum exhibitions website; 
# DNB records ‘Sprengel Museum’
# Text and Data Mining: Library catalogue Sprengel Museum

Each team carries out the same tasks for their parts to complete a round of data modeling:

# Collect data – bottom-up method
# Validate the data – top-down method
# Presentation of data – Quarto website ‘[https://nfdi4culture.github.io/linked-open-exhibition/ Linked Open Exhibitions]’

Goal: Definition-of-done (DoD) ''NB: Developer speak''

* A documented data model (Table) with diagram (Mermaid, GraphVis, or Draw.io)
* Mapping of data model to schemas (Table)
* Idea for presentation of data for each sub-section in the prototype and implementation with Publication Manager assistance, e.g., for DNB a chronological list of exhibitions with images.
* Documentation of AI LLM use as an assistant, attribution, and comments on good practice
* Data provenance and good practice checklist completion
* The final result ‘Class Project – Prototyping: Linked Open Exhibitions’ will be made as an institutional deposit with [https://zenodo.org/ Zenodo]. 


---

==== Activity #1: Collecting data and bottom up data modeling ====
Confirm, create, or expand existing data models by looking at the source. Each project has a source:

* Team #1: Sprengel Museum website, exhibition listings: 
** https://www.sprengel-museum.de/ and 
** spreadsheet of entered exhibitions CSV GitHub | Spreadsheet TIB Cloud (passworded)
** In prototype: https://nfdi4culture.github.io/linked-open-exhibition/exhibitions.html 
* Team #2: DNB records of search for ‘Sprengel Museum’:
** https://portal.dnb.de/opac/moveDown?currentResultId=Sprengel+and+Museum%26any&amp;categoryId=books | https://wikibase.wbworkshop.tibwiki.io/ 
** CSV https://github.com/NFDI4Culture/linked-open-exhibition/blob/main/catalogues/sprengel_exhibitions.csv
** Images of book covers https://github.com/NFDI4Culture/linked-open-exhibition/tree/main/catalogues/images 
* Team #3: HsH Library information on catalogues for ‘Sprengel Museum’:
** https://katalog.bib.hs-hannover.de/vufind/Search/Results?lookfor=Sprengel%2BMuseum
** Team 3 have to start from scratch as as yet we don’t have a library record or item in an exhibition data model. Tip: look back at the other models to start building up your data models.

'''&gt;&gt;&gt; Add to data model here:''' https://tib.cloud/s/PicTdwCEqCQ6pBp (passworded)

==== OBJECTIVE ====
To ensure that the data model can represent the source. Are there enough entries to describe the things that make up the source.

The process is iterative, meaning it keeps on being repeated with improvements and changes being made.

==== TASKS ====

* Edit the purple grey area, thje green are will be edited in the next activity
* Review and correct existing information
* Add new concepts if the source needs it
* Orange areas need filling in. The cells might need editing or added to.
* Data types can be found on Property Pages only Items (QIDs) don’t have data types, in &lt;nowiki&gt;https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P1476&lt;/nowiki&gt; under the Label - ''Data type''
* URI is equivelent to URL
Tips
* Look at other examples on Wikidata: Artists, exhibitions, catalogues, bibliographic, or items in an exhibition.
* Use an AI to lookup schema explanations or options. Register with KISSKI to get better AI privacy use.

==== Activity #2: Top down data modeling validation ====
* Team #1: Sprengel Museum website
* Team #2: DNB records of search for ‘Sprengel Museum’   
* Team #3: HsH Library information on catalogues for ‘Sprengel Museum’

===== OBJECTIVE =====
Map all concepts

==== TASKS ====
Look up the concept in the different resources and add mapping links,

Work time: Open time-slot to review running ‘Tech Stack’ or address any other questions

---

===== Homework =====
* Complete the Bottom-up and Top-down modelling
* Team #3: Visit the library and make a digital scan on a copier machine, store as PDF. The scan will be used for text and data mining and the file deleted and destroyed after. We will only be extracting metadata from the scan.
* Come along to the next class with ideas and suggestions for what you would like to have displayed from your data and data models in the prototype.

== '''&lt;small&gt;Spain’s Government&lt;/small&gt;''' ==
Article 1 of Spain’s 1978 constitution establishes a parliamentary monarchy in Spain, dividing power among three branches of government: the Legislature, the Executive, and the Judiciary.&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/lang/en/espana/spanishinstitutions/paginas/index.aspx|title=Institutions of Spain|website=www.lamoncloa.gob.es|language=en|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; The head of State is the Crown, currently King Felipe VI, who serves as the highest representative of Spain in international relations.&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt; Legislative power is vested in the Cortes Generales, which is composed of two houses: the Congress of Deputies and the Senate.&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt; The Executive branch, also called &quot;The Government,&quot; is led by the Prime Minister.&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt;

The Tribunal Supremo (Supreme Court) is the highest judicial body in Spain, except in cases concerning the Constitution.&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt; The Tribunal Constitucional (Constitutional Court) is the supreme interpreter of Spain’s Constitution and is composed of 12 justices.&lt;ref name=&quot;:0&quot; /&gt; Finally, Spain is divided into 17 Autonomous Communities and two Autonomous Cities, each with their own legislative, political, and cultural powers within their respective regions, as long as they adhere to the constitution, enabling them to adopt their own statutes and official languages.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://portal.cor.europa.eu/divisionpowers/Pages/Spain-intro.aspx|title=CoR - Spain intro|website=portal.cor.europa.eu|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Spain’s communication laws are created first through its Constitution and then by its laws on telecommunication and audiovisual communication. Many of Spain’s laws implement European Union directives, such as the Digital Services Act (DSA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Spain protects the rights created in these laws through the Ministry for Digital Transformation and the Civil Service, the National Commission for Markets and Competition (CNMC), and the Data Protection Agency (AEPD).

== '''&lt;small&gt;National Sources of Communications Law in Spain&lt;/small&gt;''' ==
Spain’s constitution protects classical communication rights, including the freedom to spread ideas and opinions through words, writings, or other means.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Constitución Española|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/c/1978/12/27/(1)|date=1978-12-29|accessdate=2026-03-05|pages=29313–29424|issue=Constitución|last=Cortes Generales|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; 

Article 20 of the Constitution creates “the right to freely express and spread thoughts, ideas, and opinions through words, in writing or by any other means of reproduction.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Even further, Article 20 protects “the right to literary, artistic, scientific and technical . . . creation, the right to academic freedom, [and] the right to freely communicate or receive truthful information by any means of dissemination whatsoever.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; It is important to note that the right to receive and communicate information is limited by the requirement that the information be truthful.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Article 20 also prohibits the aforementioned rights from being restricted by “any form of prior censorship” and declares that “[t]he law shall regulate the organization and parliamentary control of the mass communication means under the control of the State and . . . guarantee access to such means by the significant social and political groups” to respect pluralism in society.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; While Article 20 enumerates many important communication rights, it expressly limits such rights in respect to the “right of honor, to privacy, to the own image and to the protection of youth and childhood.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;

Article 18 guarantees the right to honor, personal and family privacy, and to the own image. Additionally, the “[s]ecrecy of communications is guaranteed,” especially regarding telegraphic, postal, and telephonic communications, unless disclosure is necessary by a court order.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Lastly, Article 18 declares that “[t]he law shall restrict the use of data processing in order to guarantee the honor and personal and family privacy of citizens and the full exercise of their rights.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; 

A distinct feature of Spain’s constitution is Article 10, which provides that the “[p]rovisions relating to the fundamental rights and liberties recognized by the Constitution shall be construed in conformity with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and international treaties and agreements thereon ratified by Spain.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; This article ensures that the scope of Spain’s communication rights is not limited domestically, but understood according to international norms and conventions.

Spain’s Ministry for Digital Transformation and the Civil Service is the central governmental department responsible for implementing The Government’s policy on telecommunications.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://digital.gob.es/en/ministerio|title=Portal MTDFP {{!}} Mission and Functions|website=digital.gob.es|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; The Ministry is divided into three bodies.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://digital.gob.es/en/ministerio/organigrama|title=Portal MTDFP {{!}} Organigram|website=digital.gob.es|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; One of these bodies, the State Secretariat for Telecommunications and Digital Infrastructures, develops and implements policies to boost the telecommunications sector and communication infrastructure.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://digital.gob.es/en/ministerio/organigrama/setid|title=Portal MTDFP {{!}} State Secretariat for Telecommunications and Digital Infrastructure|website=digital.gob.es|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; For example, the Secretariat developed the General Telecommunications Law (Law 11/2022), which guarantees 10 Mbps of internet speed and removes legal barriers to speed up the rollout of 5G service in Spain.&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley 11/2022, de 28 de junio, General de Telecomunicaciones|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/l/2022/06/28/11|date=2022-06-29|accessdate=2026-03-05|pages=91253–91411|issue=Ley 11/2022|last=Jefatura del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt;

== &lt;small&gt;'''Regional Sources of Communications Law'''&lt;/small&gt; ==
Spain’s communication rights framework is deeply entrenched in the greater European human rights system. In 1979, only a few months after the Spanish Constitution was ratified, Spain ratified the ''European Convention on Human Rights'', demonstrating the inspiration that the Spanish Constitution draws from the Convention.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.tribunalconstitucional.es/ActividadesDocumentos/2016-05-17-00-00/Presentation%20of%20the%20President%20of%20%20the%20Constitutional%20Court%20%20of%20Spain.pdf|title=HE DIALOGUE BETWEEN THE EUROPEAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS AND SPAIN’S CONSTITUTIONAL COURT: A FRUITFUL RELATIONSHIP|last=Pérez de los Cobos Orihuel|first=Francisco|access-date=Feb. 22, 2026}}&lt;/ref&gt; The Convention recognizes the right to respect for private and family life, the right to freedom of expression, and the right to hold opinions and receive and impart information and ideas.&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.echr.coe.int/documents/d/echr/convention_ENG|title=European Convention on Human Rights|date=Oct. 2, 2013|website=Council of Europe, European Court of Human Rights}}&lt;/ref&gt; As a member state of the Council of Europe, Spain is subject to the jurisdiction of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR), which enforces the rights recognized under the Convention. This means that complaints against Spain alleging violations of rights recognized under the Convention can be brought to the ECtHR, but only after all domestic legal avenues have been exhausted.&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt; Additionally, the ECtHR provides interpretive authority to Spain’s national courts when assessing the proportionality and necessity of communication regulations.&lt;ref name=&quot;:3&quot; /&gt;

Spain is also bound by the ''European Union Charter of Fundamental Rights''.&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://fra.europa.eu/sites/default/files/fra_uploads/fra-2019-eu-charter-in-spain_en.pdf|title=The EU Charter on Fundamental Rights in Spain|website=European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights, Charter Country-Sheet|access-date=Feb. 22, 2026}}&lt;/ref&gt; Like the Convention, the Charter guarantees many of the same rights that are protected by Spain's constitution.&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; For example, the Charter guarantees the right to respect for private and family life (Article 7), protection of personal data (Article 8), freedom of thought and conscience (Article 10), and freedom of expression and information (Article 11).&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.europarl.europa.eu/charter/pdf/text_en.pdf|title=Charter of Fundamental Right of the European Union|date=Dec. 7, 2000|website=European Union, Official Journal of the European Communities}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, the Charter is typically more explicit about certain rights. For example, the Charter enumerates workers’ right to information within the undertaking (Article 27) and the right to access documents (Article 42), while Spain’s constitution does not.&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; Spain is also subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt; Unlike the ECtHR, the CJEU’s jurisdiction only extends to cases in which Spanish authorities implemented European Union law.&lt;ref name=&quot;:4&quot; /&gt;

== &lt;small&gt;'''International Sources of Communications Law'''&lt;/small&gt; ==
As a member state of the United Nations, Spain is committed to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and, as previously discussed, gives the Declaration interpretative authority under Article 10 of the Spanish Constitution.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; The Declaration guarantees, among others, the right to privacy and freedom of thought, conscience, opinion, and expression.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.un.org/en/about-us/universal-declaration-of-human-rights|title=Universal Declaration of Human Rights|last=Nations|first=United|website=United Nations|language=en|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt;

In 1977, Spain ratified the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR).&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://indicators.ohchr.org/|title=- OHCHR Dashboard|website=indicators.ohchr.org|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; The ICCPR protects similar rights to the European Convention and Charter. Specifically, the ICCPR guarantees the right to “hold opinions without interference” and “the right to freedom of expression,” which includes freedom to “seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds.”&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/international-covenant-civil-and-political-rights|title=International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights|website=OHCHR|language=en|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; Importantly, Spain ratified the First Optional Protocol to the ICCPR in 1985.&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; The Optional Protocol establishes a complaint mechanism for the ICCPR, enabling complaints to be submitted directly to the UN Human Rights Committee after all domestic legal avenues have been exhausted.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/optional-protocol-international-covenant-civil-and-political|title=Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights|website=OHCHR|language=en|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; 

Spain also ratified the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) in 1977.&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt; The ICESCR protects cultural life and access to information, including the right to enjoy scientific progress.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/international-covenant-economic-social-and-cultural-rights|title=International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights|website=OHCHR|language=en|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; Spain ratified the Optional Protocol to the ICESCR in 2010, which, like the Optional Protocol to the ICCPR, creates an oversight mechanism allowing complaints to be brought directly to the UN Human Rights Committee after the exhaustion of domestic legal avenues.&lt;ref name=&quot;:5&quot; /&gt;

= '''Principles of Communication Law and the Media in Spain''' =
The two main bodies influencing the means of communication in Spain are the State Secretariat for Telecommunications and Digital Infrastructures and the National Commission for Markets and Competition (CNMC). The Secretariat aims to support the telecommunications sector by improving connectivity and increasing infrastructure deployment in Spain.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://digital.gob.es/en/telecomunicaciones-infraestructuras-digitales|title=Portal MTDFP {{!}} Telecommunication and Digital Infrastructures|website=digital.gob.es|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; The CNMC’s mission is to promote the proper functioning of Spanish markets in the interest of consumers and businesses.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.cnmc.es/facil-para-ti/que-hace-la-cnmc-para-consumidores|title=¿Qué hace la CNMC para los consumidores? {{!}} CNMC|website=www.cnmc.es|language=es|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt;

== &lt;small&gt;'''Communication Infrastructure'''&lt;/small&gt; ==
The Secretariat achieves its purpose through the General Telecommunications Law (Law 11/2022). Law 11/2022 provides the essential definitions and parameters for Spain’s telecommunication infrastructure.&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt;

Article 85 of Law 11/2022 specifically tackles the issue of spectrum scarcity–the limited availability of radio spectrum frequencies compared to the high demand for frequencies–by declaring that “[t]he radio spectrum is a public domain asset, the ownership and administration of which belong to the State.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt; By defining the radio spectrum as a public domain asset, the Spanish government retains complete control over spectrum allocation, enabling the government to ensure equal distribution in the market. Article 85 clarifies that State administration of the radio spectrum is carried out according to the policy approaches of the European Union and takes into account freedom of expression, consumer rights, and cultural rights, among other things.&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt; Specifically, Article 85.3 declares that the principles of effective and efficient use, service neutrality, and promotion of competition apply to the administration of the radio spectrum.&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt; 

Article 44 prevents bottlenecks–private property owners preventing public communication infrastructure from being built on their property–by granting telecommunication operators the right to occupy private property when necessary to implement a public network and no other viable alternatives exist in the area.&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt; This process is done either through a compulsory purchase or compulsory easement of the property owner's land.&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt; Additionally, Article 45 grants the same right to network operators for land in the public domain.&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt;

Article 37 defines “universal service” as the “set of services whose provision is guaranteed to all consumers regardless of their geographical location.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt; Article 37 sets the minimum broadband internet speed for universal services at 10 Mbps.&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt; However, Spain published the Digital Infrastructure and Connectivity Plan and the Strategy for the promotion of 5G technology, which outlines actions to provide the entire population with 100 Mbps of access speed.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/digital-connectivity-spain|title=Digital connectivity in Spain {{!}} Shaping Europe’s digital future|website=digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu|language=en|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; Through Article 37’s definition of universal service, Spain ensures that all of its citizens will have access to the internet. In fact, in 2020, 84% of the population already had access speeds of 100 Mbps.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://portal.mineco.gob.es/en-us/comunicacion/Pages/201201_np_conectividad.aspx|title=El Gobierno presenta el Plan para la Conectividad y las Infraestructuras Digitales y la Estrategia de Impulso a la Tecnología 5G, dotados con 4.320 millones de euros hasta 2025|website=portal.mineco.gob.es|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; Lastly, Article 38 mandates that universal service must be affordable to ensure that consumers with low income or special social needs have access.&lt;ref name=&quot;:2&quot; /&gt; 

== &lt;small&gt;'''Communication Content'''&lt;/small&gt; ==
The CNMC achieves its purpose through enforcing the General Audiovisual Communication law (Law 13/2022). Law 13/2022 regulates traffic on the telecommunication infrastructure created by Law 11/2022, including the content and platforms operating on the infrastructure.

Article 94 of Law 13/2022 broadens the definition of audiovisual communication service providers to include “users of special relevance” (influencers).&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley 13/2022, de 7 de julio, General de Comunicación Audiovisual|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/l/2022/07/07/13|date=2022-07-08|accessdate=2026-03-05|pages=96114–96220|issue=Ley 13/2022|last=Jefatura del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; By doing so, Article 94 requires influencers on audiovisual platforms to comply with Articles 4, 6, 7.1, and 10 of Law 13/2022, among other provisions.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt; According to these Articles, influencer content must respect human dignity, not incite violence or discrimination, be free from stereotypes of people with disabilities, and adopt measures to promote media literacy skills.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt; Article 94 also requires influencers to register with the State Registry of Audiovisual Communication Service Providers.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt; In sum, Article 94 recognizes individual influencers, who may only post content through their smartphones, as means of communication with the same impact as traditional media sources, and therefore requires them to adhere to similar legal responsibilities as traditional media sources.

Article 122 prohibits advertisements from promoting discrimination and using the images of women in a degrading or discriminatory manner to prevent violations of human dignity.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt; Even further, Article 122 prohibits the use of covert and subliminal advertising that utilizes techniques consumers cannot consciously perceive.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt; Article 123 sets restrictions on tobacco, pharmaceutical, and alcohol advertisements, including banning alcohol advertisements that target or depict minors drinking.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt; These provisions regulate the content of commercial audiovisual communications allowed in Spain to prevent surreptitious and potentially immoral communications from reaching citizens.

Article 1 of the Constitution declares that the law must advocate for political pluralism, and Article 20 further requires that laws regulating communications media respect pluralism.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Law 13/2022 pursues Constitutional pluralism by requiring audiovisual communication service providers to promote pluralism in Article 5.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt; Law 13/2022 also requires TV providers to reserve at least 51% of their broadcasting for European works and streaming platforms to reserve at least 30% of their catalog for European works, of which 50% must be in Spanish or another co-official language.&lt;ref name=&quot;:6&quot; /&gt; Together, these provisions ensure Constitutional pluralism by reserving space for a diversity of content to be published on audiovisual communication platforms.

== &lt;small&gt;'''Historical background'''&lt;/small&gt; ==
From 1939 to 1975, Spain was ruled by an authoritarian dictator, Francisco Franco.&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot;&gt;{{Cite news|url=https://www.britannica.com/event/Spanish-Civil-War|title=Spanish Civil War {{!}} Definition, Causes, Summary, &amp; Facts {{!}} Britannica|work=Encyclopedia Britannica|access-date=2026-03-05|language=en}}&lt;/ref&gt; During his regime, Franco installed a one-party system, enforcing his will through extreme oppression and censorship of civil liberties.&lt;ref name=&quot;:7&quot; /&gt; Speech, media, and association rights were heavily restricted to suppress Franco’s opposition.&lt;ref name=&quot;:8&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.history.com/articles/francisco-franco|title=Francisco Franco - Biography, Facts &amp; Death|last=Editors|first=HISTORY com|date=2009-11-09|website=HISTORY|language=en|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; Franco organized military tribunals to convict those who opposed him, imprisoning thousands and sentencing many Spaniards to death.&lt;ref name=&quot;:8&quot; /&gt; Toward the end of Franco’s regime, his control over Spain started to relax.&lt;ref name=&quot;:8&quot; /&gt; Strikes and protests became more frequent, and press censorship and police control decreased.&lt;ref name=&quot;:8&quot; /&gt; After Franco died in 1975, King Juan Carlos I succeeded him.&lt;ref name=&quot;:8&quot; /&gt; Although Franco appointed him, King Juan Carlos immediately pushed for reform by legalizing political parties and eventually holding democratic elections in 1977.&lt;ref name=&quot;:8&quot; /&gt;

== '''&lt;small&gt;Spain’s Citizen Security Law (“Gag Law”)&lt;/small&gt;''' ==
In 2015, Spain passed the Organic Law on Citizen Security (Ley Orgánica 4/2015, de 30 de marzo, de protección de la seguridad ciudadana).&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 4/2015, de 30 de marzo, de protección de la seguridad ciudadana|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/2015/03/30/4|date=2015-03-31|accessdate=2026-03-05|pages=27216–27243|issue=Ley Orgánica 4/2015|last=Jefatura del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; The Law comprehensively updates public safety regulations in Spain and aims to maintain public order through protecting persons and property.&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot; /&gt; Since its inception, the Law was criticized for restricting speech and press rights, leading it to be colloquially called the “Gag Law.”&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.es.amnesty.org/en-que-estamos/blog/historia/articulo/10-anos-de-resistencia-contra-la-ley-mordaza-con-mucho-arte/|title=10 años de resistencia contra la Ley Mordaza (con mucho arte)|last=Escaño|first=Carlos|date=Jun. 27, 2025|website=Amnistía Internacional}}&lt;/ref&gt; 

The Gag Law regulates a wide range of areas, including public gatherings, filming the police, public waterways, and drug possession.&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot; /&gt; Offenses are classified into three categories: minor (Article 37), serious (Article 36), and very serious (Article 35).&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot; /&gt; Article 39 imposes €100 to €600 in fines for minor offenses, €601 to €30,000 in fines for serious offenses, and €30,001 to €600,000 in fines for very serious offenses.&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot; /&gt; These administrative fines are handed out by Spanish security forces (the police) under the Ministry of the Interior’s command.&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot; /&gt; The most important, and often most controversial offenses under the Gag Law include:

* '''Article 37.1''' (€100 – €600): holding meetings in places of public transit without prior notice to relevant government authorities.&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 9/1983, de 15 de julio, reguladora del derecho de reunión|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/1983/07/15/9|date=1983-07-18|accessdate=2026-03-05|pages=19996–19997|issue=Ley Orgánica 9/1983|last=Jefatura del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt;
* '''Article 37.4''' (€100 – €600): disrespect directed at police officers in the performance of their duties.
* '''Article 36.1''' (€601 – €30,000): disturbing public safety at public events or gatherings attended by numerous people.
* '''Article 36.2''' (€601 – €30,000): serious disturbances to public safety occurring at demonstrations in front of the headquarters of the Congress of Deputies, the Senate, and the legislative assemblies of the autonomous communities, even if they are not meeting.
* '''Article 36.3''' (€601 – €30,000): causing disturbances in public roads, spaces, or establishments when doing so causes a serious alteration of public safety.
* '''Article 36.6''' (€601 – €30,000): disobedience or resistance to authorities exercising their duties and refusal to identify oneself when required by authorities.
* '''Article 36.23''' (€601 – €30,000): the unauthorized use of images or personal or professional data of authorities and police that may endanger their personal or family safety, with respect to the fundamental right to information.
* '''Article 35.1''' (€30,001 – €600,000): unreported or prohibited meetings or demonstrations in or near public infrastructure or facilities that provide basic services to the community, as well as intrusion onto their premises, when creating a risk to the life or physical integrity of persons&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot; /&gt;

The Gag law also creates a presumption of officer validity under Article 52.&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot; /&gt; This presumption means that an alleged offender has the burden of disproving an officer’s recitation of the events to contest the validity of the fine during administrative proceedings.&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot; /&gt; The administration of fines is to be governed by the principle of proportionality, and the Gag Law’s provisions are to be interpreted in accordance with freedoms of expression, assembly, information, and association.&lt;ref name=&quot;:9&quot; /&gt; Between 2015 and 2020, around 400,000 fines were administered for protest and press-related activities.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.publico.es/politica/15-sanciones-29-millones-recaudacion-balance-ley-mordaza-2024.html|title=Un 15% más de sanciones y 29 millones más de recaudación: el balance de la ley mordaza en 2024|last=Reviejo|first=Santiago F.|date=2025-10-14|website=www.publico.es|language=es|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Sentencia 172/2020, de 19 de noviembre de 2020. Recurso de inconstitucionalidad 2896-2015. Interpuesto por más de cincuenta diputados de los grupos parlamentarios Socialista, La Izquierda Plural, Unión Progreso y Democracia y Mixto del Congreso de los Diputados en relación con diversos preceptos de la Ley Orgánica 4/2015, de 30 de marzo, de protección de la seguridad ciudadana. Dignidad de la persona y principios de seguridad jurídica y de sometimiento de la acción de la administración al control judicial; derechos a la integridad física, intimidad, libertad de expresión e información, reunión, tutela judicial: nulidad parcial del precepto legal que tipifica como infracción grave el uso no autorizado de imágenes o datos personales o profesionales de autoridades o miembros de las fuerzas y cuerpos de seguridad; interpretación conforme con la Constitución de ese mismo ilícito administrativo, así como de los relativos al incumplimiento de restricciones de circulación peatonal o itinerario en actos públicos y a la ocupación de inmuebles contra la voluntad de su titular; interpretación conforme de la disposición que establece un régimen especial de rechazo en frontera para Ceuta y Melilla. Voto particular.|website=www.boe.es|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; Though the Court made several rulings limiting the scope of Article 36.23, its most important holding was with respect to the term “unauthorized.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:10&quot; /&gt; The Court held that the term “unauthorized” in Article 36.23 implied that prior authorization was required for individuals to capture images, namely the press, constituting prior censorship prohibited by the Constitution.&lt;ref name=&quot;:10&quot; /&gt; Thus, the Court declared that &quot;unauthorized,” as used in Article 36.23, was unconstitutional.&lt;ref name=&quot;:10&quot; /&gt;

Some challenges have made their way to the ECtHR. In 2018, the Court held that a man’s sanction under the Gag Law for slandering police officers was a violation of his freedom of speech rights under Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights.&lt;ref name=&quot;:11&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://hudoc.echr.coe.int/eng?i=001-187736|title=HUDOC - European Court of Human Rights|website=hudoc.echr.coe.int|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; The Court found that punishing the man’s description of police action as torture, after officers pulled him away from a sit-in protest using a rope, would create a chilling effect on freedom of expression.&lt;ref name=&quot;:11&quot; /&gt; 

== '''&lt;small&gt;Spain’s Penal Code&lt;/small&gt;''' ==
Spain’s penal code (Law 10/1995) makes it a crime to publicly praise or justify terrorism (Article 578), seriously insult, slander, or threaten state institutions (Article 504), and slander, defame, or use images of the Crown in a way that may damage its prestige (Article 491).&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 10/1995, de 23 de noviembre, del Código Penal|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/1995/11/23/10|date=1995-11-24|accessdate=2026-03-05|pages=33987–34058|issue=Ley Orgánica 10/1995|last=Jefatura del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; 

In 2023, the ECtHR upheld rapper Pablo Hasél’s conviction under the penal code for public praise of terrorism, insult against the Crown, misuse of the King’s image, and insult against State institutions.&lt;ref name=&quot;:12&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://hudoc.echr.coe.int/?i=001-229004|title=HUDOC - European Court of Human Rights|website=hudoc.echr.coe.int|access-date=2026-03-05}}&lt;/ref&gt; Hasél was convicted for several tweets he posted supporting convicted members of a terrorist group, GRAPO, and a song he created about King Emeritus Juan Carlos I of Spain.&lt;ref name=&quot;:12&quot; /&gt; Hasél also posted a video in which he accused the King of “spending money on ‘binges and whores’, of being a drunkard, a ‘mafia boss’ and a ‘stinking chieftain’, of being ‘useful to his [drug] dealer and the owner of the whorehouse’, and of colluding with (Antonio) Tejero (leader of the failed coup in 1981).”&lt;ref name=&quot;:12&quot; /&gt; The ECtHR found that Hasél’s conviction and prison sentence were proportional to the legitimate aim pursued–national security and public safety under Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights.&lt;ref name=&quot;:12&quot; /&gt;

== '''&lt;small&gt;Historical Memory Law&lt;/small&gt;''' ==
In 2007, Spain enacted Law 52/2007, a historical memory law.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley 52/2007, de 26 de diciembre, por la que se reconocen y amplían derechos y se establecen medidas en favor de quienes padecieron persecución o violencia durante la guerra civil y la dictadura|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/l/2007/12/26/52|date=2007-12-27|accessdate=2026-03-05|pages=53410–53416|issue=Ley 52/2007|last=Jefatura del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; The Historical Memory Act declares that it is time for Spanish democracy to honor and reclaim those who suffered injustices and grievances perpetrated by the Spanish Civil War and Francoism.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot; /&gt; The Law’s stated purpose is to recognize and expand the rights of those who suffered persecution or violence during the Civil War and Dictatorship, and to promote their moral reparation and recovery of their personal and family history.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot; /&gt; To do so, the Law lays the foundation for the government to promote policies aimed at understanding and creating a collective democratic memory.

Law 52/2007 achieves its goals by declaring the unjustness and illegitimacy of military tribunal punishments and the exile of Spaniards during the Civil War and Dictatorship.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot; /&gt; Even further, the Law creates a personal right to reparation and recognition for such Spaniards.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot; /&gt; The Law also expands previously offered social assistance and monetary reparations for those affected by the Civil War and Dictatorship.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot; /&gt; Articles 11 through 13 create a government system to process requests for and investigate the location and identity of missing persons from the Civil War and Dictatorship.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot; /&gt; Article 15 commands public authorities to remove public symbols and monuments that glorify the Civil War and Dictatorship, including insignias, plaques, and shields.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot; /&gt; Finally, Article 20 of the Historical Memory Act establishes the Documentary Center for Historical Memory in Salamanca, Spain, to maintain an archive and promote research on the Civil War, Dictatorship, and the guerrilla resistance.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot; /&gt; Practically, Spain’s historical memory law creates a state-sponsored history and truth of the Civil War and Francoism, recognizing rights for individuals who were directly or indirectly persecuted.&lt;ref name=&quot;:13&quot; /&gt;  

== '''&lt;small&gt;Recognition and Protection of Terrorism Victims Law&lt;/small&gt;''' ==
Law 29/2011 creates a legal framework to compensate, benefit, and aid victims of acts of terrorism, to recognize and protect them and their families.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley 29/2011, de 22 de septiembre, de Reconocimiento y Protección Integral a las Víctimas del Terrorismo|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/l/2011/09/22/29|date=2011-09-23|accessdate=2026-03-05|pages=100566–100592|issue=Ley 29/2011|last=Jefatura del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; The law is founded on the values of memory, dignity, justice, and truth.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Memory serves to safeguard and maintain victims' social and political recognition.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Dignity symbolizes the victims' defense of the democratic rule of law.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Justice serves to bring the victims compensation and condemn the terrorists.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Truth serves to highlight the violation of human rights committed by acts of terrorism.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Law 29/2011 defines terrorism as acts carried out by individuals belonging to criminal organizations or groups whose purpose or objective is to undermine the constitutional order or seriously disrupt public peace.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; 

To promote and achieve these principles, Article 14 of Law 29/2011 grants victims of terrorism the right to receive compensation from the State in the form of the amount of civil liability imposed on the convicted terrorist(s).&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Additionally, Annex I of the Law creates a compensation table for physical and psychological damage suffered by victims.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Compensation, paid by the government, ranges from €75,000 to €500,000 depending on the severity of the damage.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Articles 42 through 46 provide data protection and privacy for victims by making it unlawful to advertise images of victims in a derogatory, humiliating, sensationalist, or for-profit manner, and by directing the media to promote the protection and appropriate use of victims' images.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; These privacy protections serve to dignify victims.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Article 52 authorizes the government to recognize victims and their families with the rank of Grand Cross (Gran Cruz), Commander (Encomienda), or Badge (Insignia)–honorary civil decorations similar to military decorations–to further honor and dignify victims.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Articles 56 and 61 direct the government to erect symbols and monuments to promote the dignity and honor of victims, and to remove those that glorify terrorism.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Article 57 establishes the National Center for the Memory of Victims of Terrorism, which aims to build the collective memory of terrorism victims.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt; Finally, Article 60 creates the national Day of Remembrance and Tribute to the Victims of Terrorism on June 27, with a European counterpart on May 11.&lt;ref name=&quot;:14&quot; /&gt;

This robust law demonstrates Spain’s commitment to honoring, dignifying, and preserving the memory of terrorism victims.

== '''&lt;small&gt;Honor, Privacy and One’s Own Image&lt;/small&gt;''' ==
Although the Spanish Constitution provides the right to freedom of expression, it is limited by the rights to honor, personal and family privacy, and to one’s own image under Article 18.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Spain’s penal code recognizes the limitation on expressive rights by creating an offense for slander under Article 206 and defamation under Article 209.&lt;ref name=&quot;:15&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 10/1995, de 23 de noviembre, del Código Penal|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/1995/11/23/10|date=1995-11-24|accessdate=2026-03-05|pages=33987–34058|issue=Ley Orgánica 10/1995|last=Jefatura del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; 

Article 205 of the penal code defines slander as accusing someone of a criminal offense while knowing that the accusation is false or recklessly disregarding the truth.&lt;ref name=&quot;:15&quot; /&gt; Slander is punished with six months to two years of imprisonment if disseminated with publicity.&lt;ref name=&quot;:15&quot; /&gt; However, someone accused of slander is exempt from punishment if they prove the truth of the criminal deed they alleged.&lt;ref name=&quot;:15&quot; /&gt; 

Article 208 of the penal code defines defamation as a deed or expression that harms another person's dignity, thereby damaging their reputation or attacking their self-esteem.&lt;ref name=&quot;:15&quot; /&gt; Only defamation that, in context, is considered serious by the public constitutes a criminal offense.&lt;ref name=&quot;:15&quot; /&gt; Severe defamation disseminated with publicity is punished by a fine of six to fourteen months.&lt;ref name=&quot;:15&quot; /&gt; Like slander, someone accused of defamation is exempt from liability by proving the truth of the statement asserted, but only if the statement was directed against civil servants concerning the exercise of their official duties.&lt;ref name=&quot;:15&quot; /&gt;

For both slander and defamation, assertions are considered to be disseminated with publicity if they were propagated by use of the printing press, radio, or other similarly effective means.&lt;ref name=&quot;:15&quot; /&gt; Presumably, the internet and social media could constitute similarly effective means if the assertion was disseminated widely enough.

== '''Introduction''' ==
Article 14 of the Spanish Constitution establishes that Spaniards may not, in any way, be discriminated against on account of their religion.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Article 16 further guarantees freedom of ideology, religion and worship by individuals and groups as fundamental rights, prohibiting their restriction other than as necessary to maintain public order.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Article 16 also protects individuals from being compelled to make statements regarding their religion, beliefs, or ideologies.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Lastly, Article 16 declares that there is no State religion in Spain, establishing a non-confessional state.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; However, public authorities must take religious beliefs in Spain into account and maintain cooperation with the Catholic Church and other religions.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Article 16’s requirement that public authorities take religious beliefs into account shifted Spain from a state of indifference regarding religious matters under previous drafts of the 1978 Constitution, to active cooperation and recognition of religion as a social fact in Spanish society.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://digitalcommons.law.byu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2076&amp;context=lawreview|title=Perspectives on Religious Freedom in Spain|last=Souto Paz|first=Jose Antonio|date=05/01/2001|website=BYU Law Review|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Article 7 of Ley Orgánica 7/1980, de 5 de julio, de Libertad Religiosa (Organic Law on Religious Liberties), clarifies that to cooperate with religions in Spain, the State shall establish appropriate cooperation agreements and conventions with churches, denominations, and religious communities that are enrolled in the Ministry of Justice’s Registry of Religious Entities and are well-established due to their scope and number of believers in Spain.&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 7/1980, de 5 de julio, de Libertad Religiosa|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/1980/07/05/7|date=1980-07-24|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=16804–16805|issue=Ley Orgánica 7/1980|last=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; Such agreements must be approved by the Parliament.&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 7/1980, de 5 de julio, de Libertad Religiosa, Art. 7|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/1980/07/05/7|date=1980-07-24|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=16804–16805|issue=Ley Orgánica 7/1980|last=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; A Religious Entity’s enrollment in the Registry confers legal status, granting benefits such as autonomy to establish organizational rules, internal regulations, personnel procedures, and clauses safeguarding their religious identity and character.&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 7/1980, de 5 de julio, de Libertad Religiosa|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/1980/07/05/7|date=1980-07-24|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=Art. 6|issue=Ley Orgánica 7/1980|last=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt;

== '''The Catholic Church''' ==
Although there is no official religion in Spain, the Catholic Church enjoys many benefits compared to other religions due to its deep roots in the country’s history and tradition. According to a 2015 resolution, the Catholic Church does not have to register its past and future property the same way other religious entities do in the Religious Entity Registry.&lt;ref name=&quot;:16&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Resolución de 3 de diciembre de 2015, de la Dirección General de Cooperación Jurídica Internacional y Relaciones con las Confesiones, sobre inscripción de entidades católicas en el Registro de Entidades Religiosas|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/res/2015/12/03/(8)|date=2015-12-23|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=121567–121570|issue=Resolución|last=Ministerio de Justicia|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; Instead, the Catholic Church’s property, such as dioceses and parishes, enjoys legal benefits as soon as they are recognized as canonical legal entities by competent ecclesiastical authorities, like a Bishop or the Holy See.&lt;ref name=&quot;:16&quot; /&gt; 

== '''Religion in Education''' ==
In 1979, Spain signed an agreement with the Holy See on education and cultural affairs to uphold religious freedom and equality in Spain.&lt;ref name=&quot;:17&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Instrumento de Ratificación del Acuerdo entre el Estado español y la Santa Sede sobre Enseñanza y Asuntos Culturales, firmado en la Ciudad del Vaticano el 3 de enero de 1979|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/ai/1979/01/03/(3)|date=1979-12-15|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=28784–28785|issue=Acuerdo Internacional|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; Article 1 of the agreement between Spain and the Holy See recognizes the parental rights regarding the moral and religious education of their children, and provides that public schools must be respectful of Christian ethics.&lt;ref name=&quot;:17&quot; /&gt; Article 2 requires that the Catholic religion be offered as a course similar to other fundamental disciplines.&lt;ref name=&quot;:17&quot; /&gt; And while it is not required that students take the course, they are guaranteed the right to take the course should they choose.&lt;ref name=&quot;:17&quot; /&gt; Article 2’s requirements apply to Preschool, Basic General Education, and Unified and Multipurpose Baccalaureate and Vocational Training Degrees.&lt;ref name=&quot;:17&quot; /&gt; The Diocesan Bishop, a member of the Catholic Church, designates which teachers are qualified to provide the religious instruction.&lt;ref name=&quot;:17&quot; /&gt; Article 4 establishes that the teaching of Catholic doctrine in universities is voluntary for students, and Article 5 guarantees that the Catholic Church can organize voluntary religious instruction at public universities using its own resources.&lt;ref name=&quot;:17&quot; /&gt;

== '''Religious Expression''' ==
Articles 239 and 567 of Decreto 3096/1973, Spain’s penal code before the end of Franco’s regime, punished anyone who blasphemed with writing, words, or acts.&lt;ref name=&quot;:18&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.boe.es/buscar/doc.php?id=BOE-A-1973-1715|title=Decreto 3096/1973, de 14 de septiembre, por el que se publica el Código Penal, texto refundido conforme a la Ley 44/1971, de 15 de noviembre.|last=Ministerio de Justicia|website=Boletín Oficial del Estado|pages=Arts. 239 and 567|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; These blasphemy articles made it a criminal offense to disrespect religion.&lt;ref name=&quot;:18&quot; /&gt; In 1988, Spain decriminalized blasphemy by passing Organic Law 5/1988, which repealed Articles 239, 567.1, and 567.3 of Decreto 3096/1973.&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 5/1988, de 9 de junio, sobre modificación de los artículos 431 y 432 y derogación de los artículos 239, 566.5.º, 567.1.º y 3.º y 577.1.º del Código Penal|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/1988/06/09/5|date=1988-06-11|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=Art. 2|issue=Ley Orgánica 5/1988|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; Although blasphemy is now officially decriminalized, a similar law remains under Article 525 of Spain’s current penal code: offense to religious sentiments.&lt;ref name=&quot;:19&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 10/1995, de 23 de noviembre, del Código Penal|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/1995/11/23/10|date=1995-11-24|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=Art. 525|issue=Ley Orgánica 10/1995|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Articles 522 to 525 of Spain’s Penal Code (Ley Orgánica 10/1995) punish numerous acts intended to intimidate or offend religion.&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 10/1995, de 23 de noviembre, del Código Penal|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/1995/11/23/10|date=1995-11-24|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=Arts. 522-25|issue=Ley Orgánica 10/1995|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; Most importantly, Article 525 punishes anyone who offends the feelings of members of religious groups or publicly disparages their dogmas, beliefs, rites, or ceremonies.&lt;ref name=&quot;:19&quot; /&gt; Article 525 also makes it a violation to do the same to atheists. Violations are punishable with 8 to 12 months in prison.&lt;ref name=&quot;:19&quot; /&gt; Although Article 525 is not a blasphemy law per se, by making it a crime to offend religious groups or publicly insult their beliefs, it is in effect a continuation of Spain’s previously repealed blasphemy law.

Criminalizing insults that hurt the feelings of religious communities is no trivial matter, and so Article 525 of Spain's Penal Code has come under scrutiny in recent years. Currently, there is proposed legislation to repeal the law to better balance freedom of speech against religious rights.&lt;ref name=&quot;:20&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/spain-eyes-repeal-blasphemy-law-amid-debate-over-free-expression-2025-01-10/|title=Spain eyes repeal of blasphemy law amid debate over free expression|last=Reuters|date=January 10, 2025|website=Reuters}}&lt;/ref&gt; Patxi Lopez, a parliamentary spokesperson, claims that Article 525 “is constantly used by extremist and fundamentalist organisations to persecute artists, activists (and) elected representatives, subjecting them to costly criminal proceedings.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:20&quot; /&gt; Criticisms of Article 525 may also be related to the decline of Catholicism and religious practice in general in Spain.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.iclrs.org/blurb/religion-in-spain/|title=Religion in Spain - International Center for Law and Religion Studies|last=Hughes|first=Ryan Leroy|date=2019-02-26|website=International Center for Law and Religion Studies|language=en-US|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; Others support the protection that Article 525 provides. When the old blasphemy law was under consideration to be repealed, some supported a new provision that shifted from protecting religion as an institution, like the old blasphemy law did, to protecting an individual’s right to religious freedom and expression, like Article 525.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Fernandez-Coronado|first=Ana|title=La Tutela Penal de la Libertad Religiosa|url=https://www.boe.es/biblioteca_juridica/anuarios_derecho/abrir_pdf.php?id=ANU-E-1986-10001700055|journal=Universidad Complutense de Madrid}}&lt;/ref&gt; Today, supporters of Article 525 echo the same sentiments, arguing that the law works to prevent hate speech and protect religious observers from being subjected to psychological coercion or intimidation.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Garciandía Igal|first=David|date=December 11, 2023|title=The Future of Secular Law in Spain: A Model Based on the Evolution of Religiosity and Religious Influence on Law|url=https://brill.com/view/journals/jlrs/11/1-3/article-p59_003.xml|journal=Journal of Law, Religion and State|volume=Volume 11: Issue 1-3|pages=59-89|via=BRILL}}&lt;/ref&gt;

Although Spain’s Constitutional Court has not directly ruled on how to apply Article 525, it has continuously held the right to freedom of expression in high regard. In STC 9/2007, the Court considered whether a Deputy Mayor’s statements about a municipal engineer violated the engineer's right to honor under the Constitution.&lt;ref name=&quot;:21&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://hj.tribunalconstitucional.es/es-ES/Resolucion/Show/5976|title=SENTENCIA 9/2007, de 15 de enero|website=Tribunal Constitucional de España|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; The Court held that the Deputy Mayor’s statements were protected by the freedom of expression and did not violate the engineer’s right to honor.&lt;ref name=&quot;:21&quot; /&gt; In its reasoning, the Court balanced the interests between freedom of expression and the right to honor.&lt;ref name=&quot;:21&quot; /&gt; The Court explained that freedom of expression is of particular importance because it is a necessary condition for the exercise of other rights in a democratic system, and that the right stands in a preferential position in Spain’s constitutional order.&lt;ref name=&quot;:21&quot; /&gt; Though STC 9/2007 does not directly involve religious rights or Article 525, the high regard that the Court placed on the freedom of expression alludes to a narrow interpretation of Article 525 in which the importance of the right to freedom of expression outweighs the religious rights.

In 2008, the European Commission for Democracy Through Law (Venice Commission) published a report on the relationship between freedom of religion and freedom of expression.&lt;ref name=&quot;:22&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.venice.coe.int/webforms/documents/?pdf=CDL-AD(2008)026-e|title=Report on the relationship between Freedom of Expression and Freedom of Religion: the issue of regulation and prosecution of Blasphemy, Religious Insult and Incitement to Religious Hatred adopted by the Venice Commission at its 76th Plenary Session|last=European Commission for Democracy Through Law|date=October 17-18, 2008|website=Council of Europe, Venice Commission|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; The Venice Commission found that measures to ensure respect for religious beliefs can pursue the protection of rights and freedoms of others and public order and safety in accordance with Article 10 of the ECHR.&lt;ref name=&quot;:22&quot; /&gt; However, such measures must be construed to protect the specific beliefs held by individuals, rather than protect a belief system from criticism.&lt;ref name=&quot;:22&quot; /&gt; The Commission concluded that an offense for insult to religious feelings is “neither necessary nor desirable” without including the element of incitement to hatred in the offense.&lt;ref name=&quot;:22&quot; /&gt; Even further, the Commission found that criminal sanctions for insult to religious feelings are inappropriate.&lt;ref name=&quot;:22&quot; /&gt;

Though article 525 of Spain’s penal code requires the intent to offend the feelings of religious denomination members, it does not rise to the level of incitement to hatred as outlined in the Venice Commission’s report. Even further, article 525 remains a criminal offense in direct contradiction to the Commission’s conclusion that a criminal punishment in this situation is unnecessary.

= '''Privacy and Data Protection''' =

== '''Introduction''' ==
Article 18 of Spain’s Constitution establishes the right to personal and family privacy, secrecy of communications, and declares that the law shall limit the use of data processing to guarantee the rights to personal and family privacy.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Although written in 1978, Article 18 establishes the foundation for privacy and data protection rights in Spain. To refine these rights in accordance with the digital age, Spain passed Ley Orgánica 3/2018 de Protección de Datos Personales y garantía de los derechos digitales (Organic Law on the Protection of Personal Data and the guarantee of digital rights).&lt;ref name=&quot;:23&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 3/2018, de 5 de diciembre, de Protección de Datos Personales y garantía de los derechos digitales|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/2018/12/05/3|date=2018-12-06|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=119788–119857|issue=Ley Orgánica 3/2018|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; Organic Law 3/2018 implements the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which aims to unify data privacy rights in the EU and even provides further protection in certain circumstances.&lt;ref name=&quot;:23&quot; /&gt;

Organic Law 3/2018 goes beyond the GDPR’s requirements in significant ways, including recognizing new digital rights to: data of deceased persons accessed by their family (Article 3); net neutrality (Article 80); universal access to the internet (Article 81); digital security (Article 82); digital education (Article 83); protection of minors (Article 84); update information in digital media (Article 86); be forgotten in internet searches (Article 93); be forgotten in social networking services (Article 94); and a digital will (Article 96).&lt;ref name=&quot;:23&quot; /&gt; The Agencia Española de Protección de Datos (Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD)) is the government entity in charge of enforcing these digital rights and readily provides information related to the rights on its website.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.aepd.es/derechos-y-deberes/ejerce-tus-derechos|title=Ejerce tus derechos {{!}} AEPD|date=2024-07-16|website=Agencia Española de Protección de Datos|language=es|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; 

Overall, Organic Law 3/2018, in conjunction with the GDPR, greatly expands digital rights compared to Article 18 of the Spanish Constitution, and provides concrete ways in which these rights can be exercised in today’s digital age.

== '''State Secrets''' ==
Ley 9/1968 sobre secretos oficiales (Law on official secrets), passed during Franco’s dictatorship, creates Spain’s framework for state secrets and classified information.&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley 9/1968, de 5 de abril, sobre secretos oficiales|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/l/1968/04/05/9|date=1968-04-06|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=5197–5199|issue=Ley 9/1968|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; Law 9/1968 has come under scrutiny due to the fact that it is outdated and that it doesn’t include a declassification time frame provision, meaning information remains classified forever unless expressly declassified by a governmental body.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://english.elpais.com/spanish_news/2021-04-05/spanish-government-begins-reform-of-franco-era-official-secrets-law.html|title=Spanish government begins reform of Franco-era Official Secrets Law|last=González|first=Miguel|date=2021-04-05|website=EL PAÍS English|language=en|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; 

There have been ongoing reform efforts to Law 9/1968, but they have repeatedly stalled. The Spanish government approved a draft to replace Law 9/1968 in August 2022.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/consejodeministros/referencias/paginas/2022/refc20220801_cc2.aspx|title=Referencia del Consejo de Ministros|date=August 1, 2022|website=La Moncloa|language=Spanish|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; However, the text never saw the light of day because it wasn't processed in Congress and lapsed with the July 2023 elections.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/consejodeministros/ruedas/paginas/2025/20250722-transcripcion-rdp-consejo-ministros.aspx|title=Comparecencia del ministro de la Presidencia, Justicia y Relaciones con las Cortes; ministra de Educación, Formación Profesional y Deportes y portavoz del Gobierno; ministra de Igualdad|date=July 22, 2025|website=La Moncloa|language=Spanish|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; As of early 2026, a new Classified Information Bill&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Congreso de los Diputados|date=August 29, 2025|title=121/000067 Proyecto de Ley de Información Clasificada|url=https://www.congreso.es/public_oficiales/L15/CONG/BOCG/A/BOCG-15-A-65-1.PDF|journal=Boletín Oficial de las Cortes Generales}}&lt;/ref&gt; has been approved by the Council of Ministers and sent to parliament, but remains stalled in Congress.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.mpr.gob.es/prencom/notas/paginas/2025/220725-ley-informacion-clasificada.aspx|title=El Gobierno remite al Congreso la Ley de Información Clasificada|date=July 22, 2025|website=Ministerio de la Presidencia, Justicia y Relaciones con las Cortes|language=Spanish|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt;

== '''Breaches of Privacy''' ==
As originally enacted, paragraph two of Article 58 bis of Organic Law 3/2018 provided that political parties could use personal data obtained from publicly accessible sources, such as web pages, to carry out political activities during an election period.&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 3/2018, de 5 de diciembre, de Protección de Datos Personales y garantía de los derechos digitales|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/2018/12/05/3|date=2018-12-06|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=119788–119857|issue=Ley Orgánica 3/2018|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; This provision was declared unconstitutional by Spain’s Constitutional Court in 2019.&lt;ref name=&quot;:24&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.boe.es/buscar/doc.php?id=BOE-A-2019-9548|title=Pleno.

Interpuesto por el Defensor del Pueblo respecto del apartado primero del artículo 58 bis de la Ley Orgánica 5/1985, de 19 de junio, del régimen electoral general, incorporado por la Ley Orgánica 3/2018, de 5 de diciembre, de protección de datos personales y garantía de los derechos digitales. Protección de datos personales, principio de seguridad jurídica, vertiente negativa de la libertad ideológica y derecho a la participación política: nulidad del precepto legal que posibilita la recopilación por los partidos políticos de datos personales relativos a las opiniones políticas de los ciudadanos.|date=June 25, 2019|website=Boletín Oficial del Estado|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; The Court found that Organic Law 3/2018 did not establish adequate safeguards regarding the collection of personal data relating to political opinions.&lt;ref name=&quot;:24&quot; /&gt; Instead of creating specific measures to safeguard the interests of those whose data was being collected, Organic Law 3/2018 only implicitly referred to general safeguards, which was not enough protection under the GDPR for data on political opinions.&lt;ref name=&quot;:24&quot; /&gt; Moreover, the Court found that the lack of specific safeguards in Organic Law 3/2018 constituted an interference with the fundamental right to protection of personal data, so much so that it was potentially a direct intrusion into the core content of the right.&lt;ref name=&quot;:24&quot; /&gt;

Another privacy intrusion involves a spyware called Pegasus that was created by NSO Group for government use, including in Spain.&lt;ref name=&quot;:25&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Mildebrath|first=Hendrik|date=November 2024|title=Setting spyware standards after the Pegasus scandal|url=https://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/BRIE/2024/766262/EPRS_BRI%282024%29766262_EN.pdf|journal=European Parliament}}&lt;/ref&gt; Pegasus is a spyware that allows governments to breach mobile phones and extract data processed by the device, including text messages, phone calls, passwords, locations, and microphone and camera recordings.&lt;ref name=&quot;:25&quot; /&gt; A 2022 investigation revealed that the Pegasus software breached numerous phones of senior Spanish ministers, including the Prime Minister, Defense Minister, Interior Minister, and Agricultural Minister.&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jan/23/spanish-court-drops-pegasus-spyware-case-again-israel-spain-nso|title=Spanish court points finger at Israel as it drops Pegasus spyware case again|last=Jones|first=Sam|date=2026-01-23|work=The Guardian|access-date=2026-05-04|language=en-GB|issn=0261-3077}}&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.poderjudicial.es/cgpj/es/Poder-Judicial/Audiencia-Nacional/Oficina-de-Comunicacion/Notas-de-prensa/El-juez-de-la-Audiencia-Nacional-archiva-la-investigacion-por-el--caso-Pegasus--ante-la-falta-de-cooperacion-juridica-de-Israel|title=El juez de la Audiencia Nacional archiva la investigación por el ‘caso Pegasus’ ante la falta de cooperación jurídica de Israel|last=Comunicación Poder Judicial|date=July 10, 2023|website=Poder Judicial de España|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; Due to the involvement of EU member states and the software’s use against Members of the European Parliament, the European Parliament set out to create standards for the use of spyware to prevent any further breaches of data privacy.&lt;ref name=&quot;:25&quot; /&gt; 

Regarding Spain, the European Parliament found that its regulatory framework was compliant with data privacy protections, but could use some reforms.&lt;ref name=&quot;:25&quot; /&gt; The European Parliament found that judicial authorization for the use of spyware was properly applied, but that judicial oversight could be improved, given the improvements in surveillance technology.&lt;ref name=&quot;:25&quot; /&gt; The European Parliament also made note of Law 9/1968, which, in this context, automatically classifies the activities and information gathered by Spain’s National Intelligence Center (CNI) under Law 11/2002, which created the CNI.&lt;ref name=&quot;:25&quot; /&gt;&lt;ref&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley 11/2002, de 6 de mayo, reguladora del Centro Nacional de Inteligencia|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/l/2002/05/06/11|date=2002-05-07|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=16440–16444|issue=Ley 11/2002|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; The European Parliament noted that the automatic classification of CNI’s activities, including use of the Pegasus software, under Law 9/1968 prevented public scrutiny and effective redress because Law 9/1968 doesn’t provide a timeframe for the expiration of classified information.&lt;ref name=&quot;:25&quot; /&gt; 

Spain’s amendment to criminal procedure in Law 13/2015 introduced procedural safeguards regarding the remote search of computers and other electronics.&lt;ref name=&quot;:26&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 13/2015, de 5 de octubre, de modificación de la Ley de Enjuiciamiento Criminal para el fortalecimiento de las garantías procesales y la regulación de las medidas de investigación tecnológica|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/2015/10/05/13|date=2015-10-06|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=90192–90219|issue=Ley Orgánica 13/2015|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; Article 588 of Law 13/2015 requires judicial authorization for remote search of devices and outlines the specific offenses for which such searches may be authorized.&lt;ref name=&quot;:26&quot; /&gt; Article 588 also regulates the use of information obtained through remote searches, the duration that the information will be classified, and the destruction of the information from government records.&lt;ref name=&quot;:26&quot; /&gt; Though Law 13/2015 meets some of the European Parliament's recommendations on the use of spyware, the European Parliament noted that it does not stipulate a duty to notify individuals that their computer was remotely searched, after the search has been completed.&lt;ref name=&quot;:25&quot; /&gt;

== '''The Right to be Forgotten''' ==
In the landmark case Google Spain v. AEPD, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) established the right to be forgotten.&lt;ref name=&quot;:27&quot;&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Court of Justice of the European Union|date=May 13, 2014|title=Google Spain v. Agencia Española de Protección de Datos (AEPD)|url=https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:62012CJ0131|journal=|pages=1-21}}&lt;/ref&gt; In 2010, a Spanish national filed a complaint with the AEPD against Google Spain, requesting that Google remove or conceal personal data relating to him so that it would no longer appear in a Google search result.&lt;ref name=&quot;:27&quot; /&gt; The Spanish national brought the case after discovering that when his name was searched on Google, a link to a newspaper appeared that discussed his real-estate auction related to attachment proceedings to recover his social security debts.&lt;ref name=&quot;:27&quot; /&gt; The Spanish national wanted the newspaper link removed from the Google search and argued that because the attachment proceedings had been resolved for a number of years, they were irrelevant information that did not need to appear on a Google search of his name.&lt;ref name=&quot;:27&quot; /&gt; The AEPD ruled in favor of the Spanish national and requested that Google withdraw the data so that it was no longer accessible in the future.&lt;ref name=&quot;:27&quot; /&gt; Google Spain brought suit before Spain’s high court, the Audiencia Nacional, which then referred the case to the CJEU.&lt;ref name=&quot;:27&quot; /&gt; 

The CJEU first found that search engine operators, like Google, can be found liable to affect an individual’s fundamental rights to privacy, even when the search engine is simply providing links to web pages rather than creating and publishing the personal data itself.&lt;ref name=&quot;:27&quot; /&gt; The CJEU ultimately concluded that, in specific circumstances, an individual has the right to request that his personal data be removed from the results listed by a search of his name on a search engine.&lt;ref name=&quot;:27&quot; /&gt; However, the CJEU qualified this right to situations where the controller of the data, in this case Google, no longer needs the data for the purposes for which it was collected or lawfully processed, or if the individual withdraws consent to his data collection.&lt;ref name=&quot;:27&quot; /&gt; Thus, Google Spain v. AEPD established the right to be forgotten, albeit only in narrow circumstances. Articles 93 and 94 of Organic Law 3/2018 codify the right to be forgotten in internet searches and in social networking services in Spain.&lt;ref name=&quot;:28&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley Orgánica 3/2018, de 5 de diciembre, de Protección de Datos Personales y garantía de los derechos digitales|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/lo/2018/12/05/3|date=2018-12-06|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=119788–119857|issue=Ley Orgánica 3/2018|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; Exercising the right under both articles is limited to situations where the individual's data privacy rights outweigh the public’s interest in viewing information or data.&lt;ref name=&quot;:28&quot; /&gt;

= '''Right to Bodily, Spiritual, &amp; Digital Identity''' =

== '''Introduction''' ==
Article 10.1 of the Spanish Constitution provides the foundation for the right to identity by creating a fundamental right to “the free development of the personality.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;

For example, in STC 99/2019, Spain’s Constitutional Court considered the constitutionality of Law 3/2007’s requirement that a person be of legal age (18 years old) to request a change to their legal name and sex in the Civil Registry.&lt;ref name=&quot;:29&quot;&gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.boe.es/buscar/doc.php?id=BOE-A-2019-11911|title=Pleno. Sentencia 99/2019, de 18 de julio de 2019. Cuestión de inconstitucionalidad 1595-2016. Planteada por la Sala de lo Civil del Tribunal Supremo respecto al artículo 1 de la Ley 3/2007, de 15 de marzo, reguladora de la rectificación registral de la mención relativa al sexo de las personas. Derechos a la integridad física y moral, a la intimidad y a la protección de la salud, en relación con la dignidad de la persona y el libre desarrollo de su personalidad: inconstitucionalidad del precepto legal en la medida en que prohíbe cambiar la mención registral del sexo y nombre a los menores de edad con suficiente madurez y que se encuentren en una situación estable de transexualidad. Voto particular.|date=August 12, 2019|website=Boletín Oficial del Estado|access-date=2026-05-04}}&lt;/ref&gt; The Court ruled that the age restriction in Law 3/2007 was unconstitutional as applied to individuals under the age of 18.&lt;ref name=&quot;:29&quot; /&gt; The Court reasoned that Law 3/2007 affects the right to the free development of personality under Article 10.1 of the Constitution because it enables individuals to make decisions about their identity.&lt;ref name=&quot;:29&quot; /&gt; By only allowing individuals who are 18 years or older to change “an essential aspect of his/her identity” (name and sex), Law 3/2007 violated the right to the free development of personality under Article 10.1 of the Constitution for individuals under 18 years of age, and therefore, violated their right to shape their identity.&lt;ref name=&quot;:29&quot; /&gt; The Court concluded that Law 3/2007 was unconstitutional as applied to minors who were mature enough and lived in a steady state of transsexuality because it prohibited their ability to exercise their right to identity.&lt;ref name=&quot;:29&quot; /&gt; The Court’s holding in STC 99/2019 directly links the right to the free development of personality to the right to identity, thus establishing Article 10.1 of the Constitution as the foundation for the right to identity.

Alternatively, Article 15 of the Constitution provides the foundation for bodily identity by ensuring that everyone has the right to “physical and moral integrity.”&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Article 18 protects the external identity by ensuring the right to honor, personal and family privacy, and to one’s own image.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Article 18.4 provides the foundation for digital identity by regulating the use of data processing to protect the right to honor and privacy.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt; Finally, Article 16 protects spiritual identity by creating the right to freedom of religion, ideology, and worship.&lt;ref name=&quot;:1&quot; /&gt;

== '''Gender Identity''' ==
First, Law 13/2005 modifies Spain’s Civil Code to legalize same sex marriage.&lt;ref name=&quot;:30&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley 13/2005, de 1 de julio, por la que se modifica el Código Civil en materia de derecho a contraer matrimonio|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/l/2005/07/01/13|date=2005-07-02|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=23632–23634|issue=Ley 13/2005|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; The legalization of same sex marriage serves to strengthen individual identity by protecting sexual orientation so that citizens who do not identify as heterosexual are afforded the same rights and duties as heterosexuals.&lt;ref name=&quot;:30&quot; /&gt;

In 2023, Spain passed Law 4/2023 to promote and guarantee equality for lesbian, gay, trans, bisexual, and intersex people, as well as their families.&lt;ref name=&quot;:31&quot;&gt;{{Citation|title=Ley 4/2023, de 28 de febrero, para la igualdad real y efectiva de las personas trans y para la garantía de los derechos de las personas LGTBI|url=https://www.boe.es/eli/es/l/2023/02/28/4|date=2023-03-01|accessdate=2026-05-04|pages=30452–30514|issue=Ley 4/2023|last=Jefatura del Estado|publisher=Boletín Oficial del Estado}}&lt;/ref&gt; This law effectively recognizes the LGBTI identity rights in Spain.&lt;ref name=&quot;:31&quot; /&gt; To achieve its goal, Law 4/2023 regulates the rights and duties of natural and legal persons and provides measures to eliminate discrimination.&lt;ref name=&quot;:31&quot; /&gt; Article 4 provides that public authorities must take all necessary measures to recognize and guarantee equal treatment and non-discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and identity.&lt;ref name=&quot;:31&quot; /&gt; 

Importantly, Article 43 of Law 4/2023 allows individuals over the age of 16 to change their registered gender and name without a medical certification or diagnosis.&lt;ref name=&quot;:31&quot; /&gt; Law 4/2023 grounds this ability in the principle of free development of personality under Article 10.1 of the Constitution and the fundamental right to privacy under Article 18.1 of the Constitution.&lt;ref name=&quot;:31&quot; /&gt; By allowing individuals to more easily change their registered sex, Law 4/2023 aligns individuals’ gender and sexual identity with their legal identity.

In April 2025, the Council of Ministers approved Royal Decree 255/2025 which regulates both physical and digital copies of Spain’s National Identity Document (DNI). Through Royal Decree 255/2025, Spain established for the first time the ability to have the DNI on digital platforms, such as mobile phones. Shortly after Royal Decree 255/2025 was announced, individuals were able to forgo carrying physical copies of their DNI by using a digital version through the MiDNI application. The DNI is the only public and official document proving someone’s identity and personal details in Spain. The DNI includes information such as the individual’s name, birth date, and sex. Currently, the digital DNI enables individuals to verifiably identify themselves to public authorities by physically displaying the digital DNI through their phone, and in 12 months private and public sectors must adopt measures enabling individuals to prove their identity via the internet with the digital DNI. 

So, not only is obtaining and using a legal identity easier through the digital DNI created by Royal Decree 255/2025, but so is changing your legal identity so that it aligns with your sexual identity under Article 43 of Law 4/2023.

Finally, Article 19 prohibits genital modification surgery for anyone under the age of 12, except when necessary to protect the individual’s health, and allows such surgeries for anyone between 12 and 17 years old only if the individual requested it and due to their age and maturity, is able to give informed consent to the surgery. So, while Law 4/2023 recognizes and promotes LGBTI identities, certain practices are limited in respect to minors. Finally, Article 17, which bans conversion therapies intended to modify someone’s sexual orientation or identity, regardless of whether the individual consented to the therapy. 

== '''Abortion &amp; Conscientious Objection''' ==
Organic Law 2/2010 regulating sexual and reproductive health and voluntary termination of pregnancies, states in its preamble that the development of sexuality and the capacity for procreation are directly linked to the free development of personality. Article 3 of Organic Law 2/2010 also promotes the right to freely chosen motherhood as one of the law’s guiding principles. In this light, Law 2/2010 provides clear regulations on the right to abortion to adequately guarantee women’s autonomy and the right to prenatal life. Generally, Law 2/2010 permits voluntary abortion if the pregnant woman is 16 years or older and the pregnancy is terminated within the first fourteen weeks of gestation. So, while Law 2/2010 protects women’s autonomy and identity to a certain extent, the state limits this identity.

Article 19 also provides for the right to conscientious objection, allowing health care professionals to refuse or deny performing an abortion for reasons of conscience, provided that the refusal is clear.

== '''Digital Identity''' ==
In 2021, Spain published the Charter of Digital Rights, a non-binding framework created to outline already existing fundamental rights and their place in the digital age. Article 2 establishes the right to digital identity and makes the right enforceable in the digital environment. Digital identity is determined by “the name and all other elements that make it up, pursuant to national, European and international law.” Even further, the Charter guarantees the right to manage one’s digital identity and that identity “may not be controlled, manipulated or appropriated by third parties against a person’s will.” The Charter also protects the right to pseudonymity (using false account names) in the digital environment under Article 4, codifying users' rights to shape their identity. However, the right to pseudonymity is limited by the State’s necessity to enable secure identity verification in appropriate circumstances under Article 2.

Though only a non-binding framework intended as a reference for future legislation, Spain’s Charter of Digital Rights provides a good insight to the future of Spain’s digital society and identity.

I'm continuing to make notes on a computer with a screen that allows me to see text more clearly.

{{tl|AI-generated}}, adding this template link to make clear that I am going to use &quot;AI Mode&quot; by Google to help me in prioritizing what I should do based on my motivation for independent study of the Coursera material and luckily some Wikimedia content, perhaps going completely to the linked Wikibooks even though that may sound a bit extreme.

== w 13, Thursday, March 26, 2026 ==

March 26: We are still at the transcripts and I'm supposed to read from page 4 to page 16...which I doubt I'll be able to do since I have much less time right now. Tomorrow or later in the future I can reflect on how this went if I don't gain any more insights today.
Me and my mother made this more organized this time. We decided that during certain days and hours of the week we will 'study together' but that also includes homework. My homework was page 4-16. We'll see how that goes...

Today was a day we had scheduled. 2 hours studying, taking turns reading paragraphs.

We began at page 16, which is 2 pages after a chapter about Bernard Mandeville and Adam Smith begins, and went until page 25 of the transcript where the chapter about Auguste Comte begins.

Now we got a new day scheduled along with a suitable time and then we'll read another 2 hours I guess.

== w 13, Saturday, March 28 ==

This is the 2nd day we studied for 2 hours at a specific day and a specific hour. With other words before March 26 we managed to make a schedule and now the schedule is complete. 6 hours per week, 3 days a week and 2 hours per day.

We read from page 16 and until page 33 where &quot;3.6 Comte’s Religion of Humanity&quot; begins.

== w 14, Monday, March 30 ==

Our study technique has changed now as we have started to view the videos instead of only focusing on the transcript. The videos contain the transcript so it makes sense and the videos automatically pause when there's a question to ask the student whether they've understood the material so far.

The two previous days, Thursday and Saturday our &quot;study technique&quot; was to read the transcript, one paragraph each person in our own pace and if we asked the other we needed more time we gave that time to the other person. You don't need a family relationship for this. Any two persons can agree to do that as long as there is mutual respect.

My mother was better at listening with focus on her end to what our teacher &quot;Dr. Bart van Heerikhuizen&quot; said and showed on his media slides.

== w 14, Thursday and Friday, April 2 and 3 ==

I'm still getting used to learning our new way which I'm trying to get used to. My mother did not find that watching the video helped very much with understanding and she opted to read the text first then watch the video.

Myself I try to do the same. So sad that what I'm studying isn't on Wikiversity. Maybe what I learn I can later use here on Wikiversity? ie. if I learn about Adam Smith on my own using my own sources I could create a &quot;course&quot; too but on Wikiversity with knowledge for everyone. Though with my attention span who knows if that will ever be completed haha. Dreams to dream.

Though let's talk tech and problems(both in a good way problems and in a bad way problems and perhaps even neutral way problems) on Coursera. If I gather enough interesting problems maybe that might lead to some sort of &quot;portal&quot; of information for a particular subject, ie. Coursera. What studying methods do they use? What studying methods do the universities and other institutions use through them?

[[User:ThinkingScience/Draftspace/CourseraHeadscratchers]] - This is for personal notes that are about problems or &quot;bugs&quot; on the site or me making notes of things I found helpful or less helpful in regards to the &quot;system&quot;. If I gather enough notes that might make it worth to make a page on Wikiversity all for the better. If not, at least I tried and I told you what I find interesting and what I find less interesting and more toward 'what can be improved'.

== w 15(easter caused disruptions in the schedule), Monday, April 6 ==

It did not go very well as I fell into my &quot;old habits&quot;, so for a future &quot;studying together&quot; I will now propose to my mother that we can study together but text only, no voice.

On Monday my mother was &quot;confused&quot; regarding how we learn best and I've not figured that out for myself yet. Part of it though is probably reading with another student/human being and taking turns, I read one paragraph, my studying partner reads the next and so forth rinse and repeat. Trying something new to discover if perhaps I'm better at studying reading alone but actively collaborating with another student might be the way to go.

She used to read alone and that was good for her but this Monday when she was extra stressed due to her personal life with scheduled stuff, I felt her stress and then the rest of that day was &quot;destroyed&quot; for me.

I don't think I learnt anything yesterday on Monday April 6. Thus I think it is important to try new things and &quot;text only collaborative studying&quot; might do the trick. Perhaps combining this with an Etherpad session might help, for note-taking.

Last time I hesitated showing my schedule but this time I think it would just be common sense so here it is:

UTC TIME: 07:30 - 09:30 (2 hours a day, 6 hours a week)

* Monday
* Thursday
* Saturday

== w 15, Thursday, April 9 ==

I insisted on trying the new &quot;study technique&quot; where we do not talk at each other but my mother had a greater need in talking. So it happened all through a conversation: 

* She: &quot;Lets talk for a while&quot;
* Me: &quot;But do you think it will help you learn?&quot; and &quot;If you believe it helps you sure let's talk&quot;
* She: &quot;Ok&quot;
* Me: &quot;but I will connect because of your learning&quot;

That's what happened, then we talked using 'live' voice chat.(not through Coursera)
It did not go as I had planned with other words but since I'm not only here for me but I am mainly a &quot;group person&quot; and if I'm alone I'll need &quot;hand-holding&quot; even if I'm an adult cause I feel like I have a &quot;similar to PTSD&quot; background that somehow made it very hard for me to study in my earlier years and I wouldn't be able to take this course solo because of that, I need a &quot;study buddy&quot; cause otherwise I easily isolate myself from the outside world.

She learnt with my help that the &quot;Discussion Forums&quot; posts she made were &quot;breaking a silence&quot; of &quot;a year ago&quot; and she laughed and I intended it as a joke to lighten up the mood after we found it difficult to reach fellow classmates through the forums.
The most recent post I can find now is from 4 months ago from another user. That probably means there are probably other classmates too but the forum inactivity(not exactly &quot;alive&quot; with activity at 2026-04-09 UTC) might mean there is nobody to collaborate with right now.
Also I have noticed users on the forums with the label &quot;unenrolled&quot;. Perhaps the change to charge for every lesson happened within last year?

Today we started with 1.8 and read until the end but then we had an argument about continuing to module 2 or first doing the Readings and Quiz before we go on to module 2 and that took some time. That's where we stopped. It took us our usual 2 hours. As another Wikiversity user told me( this is my interpretation of what they told me: ) Coursera's user interface may be difficult to work with, it may take some time to learn how to use it.

Tomorrow we will study together instead of on Saturday because &quot;real life&quot; caught up with at least me regarding that day.

== w 15, Friday, April 10 ==

I made a mistake. When my mother found something on Wikibooks it was actually referenced in the Coursera course.
I'm happy though it was Wikibooks...any Wikimedia project that we get involved in I think is a good thing!

We read on Wikibooks for the full 2 hours we had. [[wikibooks:Introduction to Sociology|Introduction to Sociology]].

The PDF file is called &quot;Introduction_to_Sociology-v3.0.pdf&quot;. It is version 3 of the Introduction to Sociology.

We gotta read from page 5-15 but these are not &quot;technical page numbers&quot;. The actual page numbers are 11-21 of 443.

Next we're gonna read &quot;2.2.4 Quantitative vs. Qualitative Sociology&quot;. That we might do on Sunday instead of Monday.

== w 16, Tuesday, April 14 - Learn button super important on the app! ==

'''Learn''' on Coursera is a button on the app.

Super important. It took us almost an hour to figure out it was that button.

My mother made an observation: if she reads the text out loud it may be harder to understand it so she reads silently after the reading out loud part. I'm not sure I learn well while reading out loud but it creates a sort of &quot;human connection with the material&quot; that I guess is a &quot;placeholder&quot; for me until I figure out how I learn best.

We studied for 2 hours. My mother continues cause she dislikes &quot;leaving something in the middle&quot;.

Tomorrow we study at 7:30.

Next time we/I read from: 

&quot;2.4 Sociology Today&quot; page 14 (20 of 443 &quot;A4 paper&quot;)

== w 16, Wednesday, April 15 - Coursera, fix my mother's problems in your app ==

April 14 notes were *SUPER IMPORTANT*. I got help from it today and it helped me a lot! Otherwise who knows how the next hour will be lost and the next and the next?

My mother is very upset with Coursera not being helpful. Too much &quot;ChatGPT coach&quot; and not enough &quot;tech support&quot; I guess cause, we are talking right now and she is clearly upset but learning how to make notes while listening to somebody/my mother being upset is a good challenge, for me to stay calm while this is happening.

08:15 Coursera is causing us problems. Discrepancy in what is shown to a user.
The discrepancy is specifically about the &quot;ChatGPT coach&quot; appearing in one of our apps and not in the other. So we are not synced.

08:59 My mother *ACTUALLY* got a bug on her version of Coursera. She presses on Start on the quiz and nothing happens. All she got was a &quot;ChatGPT coach&quot;.
So:
1. Find coursera support and attach the image of nothing happening
2. Email the university that put the course on coursera

My mother doesn't want to take a video of her pushing the &quot;Start&quot; button. So we'll just tell them what we did and that nothing happened. She has internet because she could open Wikibooks moments before which requires internet.

09:31 we are done. We have studied what we could. Our next thing was watching the video &quot;2.1 The Fable of the Bees&quot;.
I could not concentrate based on what happened today. I'm still in &quot;distress&quot; but I did what I could on my end.

Also that the person in the video is ... I need to research this. Maybe I can help Wikidata in adding accurate data about whatever that was about 

In Memoriam: bartvanheerikhuizen.nl/2023/02/in-memoriam/ I read that today. That may be the reference I add if it needs to be added on Wikidata.

I'm just happy with whatever opportunity I have to stay on Wikimedia projects, that is my ultimate goal.

== w 17, Monday, April 20 ==

Module 1, &quot;Classical Sociological Theory - An Introduction&quot;, the quiz part which is the final part of Module 1. My mother had a bug on her end so I suggested today that we do it together from my end by me telling her loudly. This is what I'll try to do now.

My mother's relation to technical problems and the digital divide:
* No, she doesn't need to input her email. She only needs to login with Google. It looks by what she tells me that she must have done that. I'm assuming by what she tells me that she has logged in.
* She can see the questions, with other words she can at least read the Quiz now. Before she couldn't.
* She can also choose the answers she now tells me. Great progress! We have worked through the Coursera bug she got!
* I'm missing a vital detail: I sent her the exact link to the quiz from the web and '''that helped her'''! I missed that vital part! I need to always send her the permalink of every module.

A healthy way to see how we study together: See us as &quot;one unit&quot; rather than separate. Pooling our resources. That we are &quot;one being&quot; conceptually and that this will help us in the long run based on what we learn.

We are probably not aware how powerful of an influence Google has over Android and the older generation to what is known as the &quot;Digital Divide&quot;. The older generation may see computer technology as a &quot;diety&quot; that cannot be &quot;comprehended&quot;. This could be a great danger to our society that may be actively destabilizing it.(fear/feeling)

&quot;Turning on app archiving on the tablet is a GREAT choice!&quot; I think I wanted to say to my mother but I don't feel like I get many answers or feedback to what I'm saying to her but that's ok. Neurodiversity is extremely complex!

My mother's comments: Coursera is a very isolated place. There is nobody to communicate with. Coursera isolates people? How can Coursera be improved or what can we do on Wikiversity so that students who are stuck on Coursera can find help? Here on Wikiversity?

Now we are updating Google Chrome on the tablet which is great news!

Etherpad has helped me immensely in giving her links and making sure we are opening the right apps and knowing what apps we are using on the tablet. I don't have physical access to the tablet so I need to give links to make sure she is opening the right apps.

I got a &quot;crazy idea&quot; that might work or maybe won't work but maybe will work if I work hard enough on it. Social networking with her contacts. Asking her social contacts if they would find &quot;Classical Sociological Theory&quot; interesting and if they'd like to study it with my mother because two minds are better than 1 when tackling difficult technical challenges like it is for people who have to deal with the &quot;Digital Divide&quot;.

Despite the distress that I caused for myself I feel good about the time we spent on this today and the feeling was mutual! 

Next time we begin on chapter 2.1. So basically module 2.

== w 17, Friday, April 24 ==

My mother has finally &quot;let go&quot; of me. She is now reading by herself and 

she said &quot;I begin my study.&quot; in Greek and 
I replied &quot;Me too!&quot; because I probably am too tense when talking with my mother. I probably need to get better at communicating with my mother.

I didn't do anything yet. Instead I fell headlong into &quot;my idea&quot;. Me and my mother need a stable technique and I think we reading on our own while saying which days we are going to study and what hours is a good thing but ie. I might say I'll study Monday, Wednesday and on Sunday and my mother might go I might study on Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday and &quot;during these hours&quot;.

That make us independent from each other and then my plan was that on Mondays we talk about how the week went.

Using &quot;AI Mode&quot; by Google to create a plan for myself. Now I no longer have the worry of how the studying will go with my mother. I can study on my own terms and my mother can too so I can finally be interested maybe in the parts that interest me and let go of the other parts that I find irrelevant regardless of what the person who created the course on this for-profit site Coursera think.

It's important to think for yourself! Anyway now I'll go to the top of the page to add an {{tl|AI-generated}} Template

It's possible I'm &quot;allergic&quot; to the word &quot;studying&quot;. Maybe school was traumatizing for my learning experience. What if everyone just said &quot;read&quot; instead. This may be a purely &quot;psychological&quot; phenomenon going on with me.

Thanks to &quot;AI Mode&quot; I got &quot;word&quot; of [[Wikiversity:Learning goals]]. I can share my learning goals. Thanks to &quot;AI Mode&quot; i learnt that they are talking there. I just needed a program that I can give the ball to, it can give it back to me, back and forth etc. etc. because on my own I go back into my &quot;mental health&quot; and &quot;depression&quot; but &quot;AI Mode&quot; actually helps me to be here with you all.

== w 17, Saturday, April 25 ==

She needs to reset her password...that's cool.

I started &quot;studying&quot; on Coursera when I had not published my idea here, when {{tl|AI-generated}} template was probably not created yet, unless I don't know what I'm talking about.

Now what I'd like to put my focus on is the idea. I don't seem to have infinite time.

== w 18, Tuesday, April 28 ==

We are continuing on independence. Tomorrow she invites me a certain time to get in touch with her as she has accelerated her learning/studying methods and I've let her &quot;run&quot;...because she learns better that way.

I have stalled. I think that in the long run it's best for me to &quot;find my way&quot; rather than going forward through &quot;hand-holding&quot; that slows my mother down. She has experience with studies and I'm sort of a &quot;liability&quot; in that regard.

Time to find my own way. Time to leave whatever PTSD-like I have behind me and see:
* How do I learn?
* What's the best way for me to learn?
* Maybe I should make more notes about exactly what I'm doing.
** When I'm spending time with things am I doing it to &quot;flee from the studies&quot;?
*** Can I make &quot;logs&quot; of what's happening or is this a &quot;psychiatric issue&quot; that is hard to solve?

== w 19, Monday, May 4 ==

Independence is continuing which is a good thing! Thus standing on my own two feet(figure of speech) I am standing here feeling no pressure. Feeling I wanna use the tools of tomorrow like large language models to my benefit rather than being ashamed of being in the future.

Something was about to begin but then it stopped.</text>

== Eisenstat's work == 

Eisenstat's work includes a [[w:TED (conference)|TED Talk]] and an [[w:South by Southwest|SXSW panel]] in 2020 and a 2024 Tech platforms and political violence. 

=== 2020 TED talk === 

In Eisenstat's (2020) TED talk, she said that around 2015 she began to notice that she was losing the ability to engage with others who were thought differently. Conversations with others in the US were becoming more difficult than conversations she had had as a CIA officer and diplomat drinking tea and talking with outspoken anti-Western clerics and suspected terrorists in Africa. Many of those engagements began with mutual suspicion but none degenerated into shouting or insults. In some cases she built collaboration on areas of mutual interest. Her most powerful tools were to listen, learn and build empathy. Most of her contacts wanted to feel heard, validated and respected. But social media companies like [[w:Facebook|Facebook]] incentivize inflammatory content contributing to a culture of political polarization and mistrust. This generates revenue for Facebook and similar companies that make money from clicks, &quot;because the shortest path to a click is anger or hate&quot;, in the words of [[Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen says|Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen]], interviewed 2024-08-19 for this Media &amp; Democracy series. When Facebook asked Eisenstat in 2018 to lead their work to support global elections integrity for political ads, she agreed. She left six months later, speaking openly about Facebook's inability to meet its responsibility to secure elections, subsequently documented, e.g., in the thousands of internal Facebook documents that [[w:Frances Haugen|Haugen]] released to the [[w:Securities and Exchange Commission|Securities and Exchange Commission]] and ''[[w:The Wall Street Journal|The Wall Street Journal]]'' in 2021.

=== 2020 SXSW panel === 

Eisenstat was part of a &quot;panel about the Future of Tech Responsibility&quot; for the 2020 [[w:South by Southwest|South by Southwest]] festival. The festival was cancelled due to COVID-19, but the panel was held virtually. This panel included a discussion of [[w:Section 230|Section 230]] of the [[w:Communications Act of 1934|Communications Act of 1934]], as amended by the [[w:Communications Decency Act|Communications Decency Act]] of 1996.&lt;ref&gt;Reid (2020).&lt;/ref&gt; It was &quot;written before platforms such as [[w:Facebook|Facebook]], [[w:YouTube|YouTube]] and [[w:X (social network)|Twitter]] existed&quot; -- written while [[w:Google|Google]] was a research project by [[w:Stanford University|Stanford]] [[w:Doctor of Philosophy|PhD]] students [[w:Larry Page|Larry Page]] and [[w:Sergey Brin|Sergey Brin]]. Section 230 includes, &quot;No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;&lt;!--47 U.S. Code § 230 - Protection for private blocking and screening of offensive material--&gt;{{cite Q|Q139570261}}&lt;/ref&gt; Eisenstat says that it's time to revisit Section 230, to demand accountability where Internet companies promote or suppress information based on the content while protecting web freedom otherwise. This is similar to the [[Dean Baker on Internet companies threatening democracy internationally and how to fix that|recommendations of]] [[w:Dean Baker|Dean Baker]] that when Internet companies make money by promoting information differentially based on content, they should be liable as are legacy media under the US Supreme Court decision in ''[[w:New York Times Co. v. Sullivan|NYT v. Sullivan]]'' (1964). In other cases, they should be treated as [[w:Common carrier|common carrier]]s like telephone companies. 

=== 2024: Tech platforms and political violence === 

More recently, Eisenstat et al. (2024a, b) are insisting that, &quot;Tech Platforms Must Do More to Avoid Contributing to Potential Political Violence&quot;. ''The New York Times'' had reported that, &quot;a steady undercurrent of violence and physical risk has become a new normal,&quot; particularly targeting public officials and democratic institutions. A survey from the Brennan Center found that 38% of election officials have experienced violent threats. They attributed these threats primarily to tech platforms and gave seven recommendations in four themes &quot;congruent with any number of papers that academics and civil society leaders have published over the years.&quot; They said that platforms 
* must develop robust standards for threat assessment and engage in scenario planning, crisis training, and engagement with external stakeholders, with as much transparency as possible.
* should enforce clear and actionable content moderation policies that address election integrity.
* should enforce their rules uniformly, not exempting politicians and other political influencers. 
* must clearly explain important content moderation decisions, ensuring transparency especially when it comes to high profile accounts.

They hope that increasing demands for accountability will prompt platforms to act more responsibly and prioritize the risk of political violence both in the United States and abroad.

[[w:Yaël Eisenstat|Yaël Eisenstat]] discusses the impact of online platforms on public health, safety and democracy. She is currently&lt;ref&gt;&lt;!--Yael Eisenstat--&gt;{{cite Q|Q82046593}}&lt;/ref&gt; the Director of Policy and Impact at Cybersecurity for Democracy (C4D),&lt;ref&gt;&lt;!--Cybersecurity for Democracy--&gt;{{cite Q|Q139568543}}&lt;/ref&gt; working on policy solutions for how to hold social media and other online platforms accountable for their effects on public safety and democracy.

She was a Facebook election integrity head in 2018 and later became a whistleblower, speaking publicly about the dangers to democracy stemming from the company's decisions and products. She has held other other positions protecting democracy including as an intelligence officer, diplomat, and White House advisor.

Eisenstat is interviewed by Spencer Graves.&lt;ref name=Graves&gt;&lt;!--Spencer Graves--&gt;{{cite Q|Q56452480}}&lt;/ref&gt; 

== Eisenstat's work == 

Eisenstat's work includes a [[w:TED (conference)|TED Talk]] and an [[w:South by Southwest|SXSW panel]] in 2020 and a 2024 research report on Tech platforms and political violence. 

=== 2020 TED talk === 

In Eisenstat's (2020) TED talk, she said that around 2015 she began to notice that she was losing the ability to engage with others who were thought differently. Conversations with others in the US were becoming more difficult than conversations she had had as a CIA officer and diplomat drinking tea and talking with outspoken anti-Western clerics and suspected terrorists in Africa. Many of those engagements began with mutual suspicion but none degenerated into shouting or insults. In some cases she built collaboration on areas of mutual interest. Her most powerful tools were to listen, learn and build empathy. Most of her contacts wanted to feel heard, validated and respected. But social media companies like [[w:Facebook|Facebook]] incentivize inflammatory content contributing to a culture of political polarization and mistrust. This generates revenue for Facebook and similar companies that make money from clicks, &quot;because the shortest path to a click is anger or hate&quot;, in the words of [[Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen says|Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen]], interviewed 2024-08-19 for this Media &amp; Democracy series. When Facebook asked Eisenstat in 2018 to lead their work to support global elections integrity for political ads, she agreed. She left six months later, speaking openly about Facebook's inability to meet its responsibility to secure elections, subsequently documented, e.g., in the thousands of internal Facebook documents that [[w:Frances Haugen|Haugen]] released to the [[w:Securities and Exchange Commission|Securities and Exchange Commission]] and ''[[w:The Wall Street Journal|The Wall Street Journal]]'' in 2021.

=== 2020 SXSW panel === 

Eisenstat was part of a &quot;panel about the Future of Tech Responsibility&quot; for the 2020 [[w:South by Southwest|South by Southwest]] festival. The festival was cancelled due to COVID-19, but the panel was held virtually. This panel included a discussion of [[w:Section 230|Section 230]] of the [[w:Communications Act of 1934|Communications Act of 1934]], as amended by the [[w:Communications Decency Act|Communications Decency Act]] of 1996.&lt;ref&gt;Reid (2020).&lt;/ref&gt; It was &quot;written before platforms such as [[w:Facebook|Facebook]], [[w:YouTube|YouTube]] and [[w:X (social network)|Twitter]] existed&quot; -- written while [[w:Google|Google]] was a research project by [[w:Stanford University|Stanford]] [[w:Doctor of Philosophy|PhD]] students [[w:Larry Page|Larry Page]] and [[w:Sergey Brin|Sergey Brin]]. Section 230 includes, &quot;No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;&lt;!--47 U.S. Code § 230 - Protection for private blocking and screening of offensive material--&gt;{{cite Q|Q139570261}}&lt;/ref&gt; Eisenstat says that it's time to revisit Section 230, to demand accountability where Internet companies promote or suppress information based on the content while protecting web freedom otherwise. This is similar to the [[Dean Baker on Internet companies threatening democracy internationally and how to fix that|recommendations of]] [[w:Dean Baker|Dean Baker]] that when Internet companies make money by promoting information differentially based on content, they should be liable as are legacy media under the US Supreme Court decision in ''[[w:New York Times Co. v. Sullivan|NYT v. Sullivan]]'' (1964). In other cases, they should be treated as [[w:Common carrier|common carrier]]s like telephone companies. 

=== 2024: Tech platforms and political violence === 

More recently, Eisenstat et al. (2024a, b) are insisting that, &quot;Tech Platforms Must Do More to Avoid Contributing to Potential Political Violence&quot;. ''The New York Times'' had reported that, &quot;a steady undercurrent of violence and physical risk has become a new normal,&quot; particularly targeting public officials and democratic institutions. A survey from the Brennan Center found that 38% of election officials have experienced violent threats. They attributed these threats primarily to tech platforms and gave seven recommendations in four themes &quot;congruent with any number of papers that academics and civil society leaders have published over the years.&quot; They said that platforms 
* must develop robust standards for threat assessment and engage in scenario planning, crisis training, and engagement with external stakeholders, with as much transparency as possible.
* should enforce clear and actionable content moderation policies that address election integrity.
* should enforce their rules uniformly, not exempting politicians and other political influencers. 
* must clearly explain important content moderation decisions, ensuring transparency especially when it comes to high profile accounts.

They hope that increasing demands for accountability will prompt platforms to act more responsibly and prioritize the risk of political violence both in the United States and abroad.

=== [https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s12888-020-02877-6 Jiang, W., Hu, G., Zhang, J. ''et al.'' Distinct effects of over-general autobiographical memory on suicidal ideation among depressed and healthy people. ''BMC Psychiatry'' '''20''', 501 (2020). https://doi.org/10.1186/s12888-020-02877-6] ===
'''Background'''

* Mentions [https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6053985/ the integrated motivational–volitional model of suicidal behaviour] by O'Conner&lt;ref&gt;The '''integrated motivational-volitional (IMV) model of suicidal behavior''', dividing it into three phases: pre-motivational, motivational, and volitional. Firstly, the pre-motivational phase is composed of diathesis, environment, and life events, describing the background factors and triggering events. Secondly, the motivational phase focuses on the psychological processes of suicidal ideation and intent. Finally, the volitional phase governs the transition from suicidal ideation to suicide attempts.&lt;/ref&gt;.
* Mentions number of studies associating OGM with suicide: &quot;''...it could be inferred that OGM mediates the suicidal process by preventing the individuals from solving problems and envisioning the future by searching in the past experience, thereby creating a feeling of hopelessness and helplessness.''&quot;
* [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S2352250X21000129 MeST] ↑ generalization of autobiographical memory ↓
* '''Research question(s)?''' No clear evidence to show how childhood trauma &amp; OGM interact in the suicidal process and whether depression is a ''moderating'' effect.
* '''Hypothesis?''' OGM has different effects on the suicide process in depression patients and healthy individuals.
* '''Purpose of study?''' Aimed to compare childhood trauma, OGM, suicidal ideation, and suicidal behavior between depression patients and healthy individuals, and explore the differences caused by depression in suicidal pathways.

'''Method'''

* '''356 Chinese participants'''.
** '''180 depressed participants''': (''n'' = 121) 67.2% of the depressed patients were depressed for more than a year.
** '''176 healthy individuals'''

'''Measures'''

* '''Suicidal ideation''': [BSI-CV]; 19-item self-report questionnaire that evaluates the thoughts about life and death and the severity of SI, using a three-point scale of 0-2. Range: 0-38.
** If the score of item 4 or 5 is NOT 0, it indicates suicidal ideation.
** ↑ BSI-CV score ↑ SI

'''Results'''

* Trauma → OGM, WSI, CSI
* OGM → WSI + CSI
* WSI → CSI
* WSI → PSB

* PSB → CSI (reverse influence) [suggests '''impulsive attempts ≠ ideation pathway]'''

WSI is strongly predictive of:

* PSB
* future SI intensity

'''Discussion'''

# '''OGM''' = overgeneralized autobiographical memory, remembering things vaguley and not specifically.
# '''WSI''' = worst suicidal thoughts one has ever had [at a certain point].
# '''CSI''' = current point of suicidal ideation

* [according to the author] appears to be the first study that connects CSI and WSI of depressed and healthy control groups with suicidal behavior, childhood trauma, and autobiographical memory together.
* '''Results?''' Suggests that SI and behavior od epression patients are significantly HIGHER than of healthy individuals. Background factors, such as childhood trauma, and the moderator of suicide, such as OGM, are more severe in depression patients.
** ONLY in depression patients, OGM significantly affects the CSI and acts an intermediary between childhood trauma and CSI.
** ...but NO significant effect of OGM on CSI in healthy individuals, ''indicating that OGM plays different roles in the emergence of suicidal ideation in different populations''. &lt;-- appears to be relevant only with other paired vulnerabilities (ex, trauma).
** OGM as a stable trait of depression was more severe in the depression group vs. healthy control.
** Childhood trauma &amp; OGM were correlated with WSI, indicating that they are critical factors of SI in accordance with the IMV model.
** PSB was strongly correlated to WSI. WSI might be an independent predictor of follow-up suicidal ideation intensity.
** Another finding was that PSB was negatively correlated with CSI and less affected by WSI in the healthy group. One reason might be that most proportion of suicides in healthy people are impulsive attempts, which do not follow the depression-hopelessness path to suicidal behavior, with lower expectations of death and suicidal ideation.
** OGM + WSI mediated '''70.28% of the total effect''' between trauma and CSI [impact of trauma on CSI does not happen ''directly'', but through OGM (messes up memory style) &amp; WSI (makes past suicidal thoughts worse)], while 30% of it is direct between trauma and current suicidal ideation.
* Improving the specificity of autobiographical memory may be an effective way to prevent suicidal ideation for depression. These could be achieved through life-review therapy &amp; MeST, both geared towards recalling memories in detail.
* '''Limitations?''' Low sample size, cross-sectional study, suicide's complex nature makes it difficult to account for all possible biological and psychological factors.
* '''Conclusion?''' This study identified the different roles of OGM in the suicidal ideation of depressed and healthy people. In depression patients, it affects the CSI and WSI and mediates the CSI due to the effect of childhood trauma. In healthy people, it can only affect the WSI. As an adjustable risk factor, the autobiographical memory might be a target of intervention for suicidal ideation in depression patients. Since training in specific memory retrieval has been proven to be effective in depression, future studies should consider whether it can reduce the emergence of suicidal ideation and suicidal behavior.

=== Moore &amp; Zoellner (2007) – Evaluative Review (OGM &amp; trauma) ===

* Evaluative review of '''24 studies''' examining trauma exposure and OGM
* '''Core question:''' Does trauma cause overgeneral memory?

'''Findings'''

* ❌ '''No consistent link''' between trauma exposure and OGM
* ✅ OGM is more consistently linked to:
** '''Depression'''
** '''PTSD symptoms (intrusions, avoidance)'''
* Trauma exposure alone is '''not sufficient''' to produce OGM
* OGM appears more tied to '''psychopathology''', not the event itself

'''Key nuance'''

* Post-trauma '''symptoms''' (not the trauma itself) are what matter
* Evidence across studies is '''mixed and methodologically inconsistent'''

'''Interpretation'''

* Challenges the classic “trauma → OGM” theory
* Supports alternative view:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM = cognitive feature of clinical disorders (e.g., MDD, PTSD)&lt;/blockquote&gt;
* Trauma alone isn’t enough — psychological response matters

=== Crane &amp; Duggan (2009) – CSA onset &amp; OGM in suicidal patients ===

* Clinical sample of '''49 patients with recurrent suicidal behavior'''
* Examined whether '''age of onset of childhood sexual abuse (CSA)''' relates to OGM

'''Findings'''

* Earlier CSA onset → '''greater OGM''' (fewer specific, more categorical memories)
* Effect remained after controlling for:
** depression
** verbal fluency
* Presence vs absence of CSA '''did NOT differ in OGM'''
** (because sample already highly clinical)

'''Interpretation'''

* Not trauma itself → but '''timing of trauma (early development)''' matters
* Supports idea that OGM develops when:
** memory systems are still forming
** avoidance becomes a learned coping style

'''Insights'''

# Analysis of OGM in a suicidal population.
# Moore &amp; Zoellner had trauma alone ≠ OGM, while Crane &amp; Duggan added some trauma characteristics from early developmental trauma.
# ''To take note'': Earlier trauma is associated with greater OGM '''within high-risk groups.'''

=== Champagne et al. (2016) – OGM in adolescent MDD ===

* Clinical adolescent sample (ages 11–18; current MDD, remitted MDD, never depressed)
* Tested whether OGM is '''state (only during depression)''' or '''trait (persists after)'''

'''Findings:'''

* Adolescents with '''current AND remitted MDD''' showed more OGM than controls
* No significant difference between current vs remitted groups
* OGM present for both '''positive and negative cues'''

'''Interpretation:'''

* OGM is likely a '''trait-like vulnerability''', not just a temporary symptom
* May contribute to '''risk of recurrence''' in depression

'''1. Trait vs state question (very important)'''

This paper directly answers:&lt;blockquote&gt;Is OGM just a symptom or a vulnerability?&lt;/blockquote&gt;👉 Answer: '''likely vulnerability'''

That’s big for your argument.
----'''2. Adolescent + clinical sample'''

* Not just adults
* Not just community

👉 Stronger relevance than many papers
----'''3. Fits your mechanism pathway''' Supports:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM persists → increases long-term risk → can feed into suicidal ideation&lt;/blockquote&gt;'''Limitations'''

* Small sample (n=65 total)
* Cross-sectional → can’t prove causality

* Can’t tell if OGM came '''before''' depression or is a “scar”

=== Arie et al. (2008) – OGM, problem solving &amp; suicidal behavior ===

* Clinical adolescent inpatient sample (suicidal vs nonsuicidal vs healthy controls)
* Tested Williams’ model linking OGM, problem solving, and suicide

'''Findings:'''

* Suicidal adolescents showed:
** '''More OGM (less specific memory)'''
** '''Worse interpersonal problem-solving ability'''
** '''Higher hopelessness'''
* OGM significantly correlated with:
** poorer problem solving
** higher hopelessness
** greater suicidal behavior
* Negative childhood life events also linked to OGM and suicide

'''Interpretation:'''

* Supports pathway:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM → poor problem solving → hopelessness → suicidal behavior&lt;/blockquote&gt;
* OGM may limit access to specific past experiences needed to solve problems effectively

'''Insights'''

* Study on population actually attempting suicide.
* Points out a clear pathway
* Suicidal group had lowest memory specificity, worst problem-solving abilities, and highest hopelessness

'''Limitations'''

* n=75, small sample
* cross sectional, so causality can not be pinpointed
* inpatient sample, so cannot be generalizable

=== Kaviani et al. (2011) – OGM, problem solving &amp; suicidal ideation ===

* Clinical sample: depressed patients '''with vs without suicidal ideation'''
* Tested links between OGM, problem solving, depression, and hopelessness

'''Findings:'''

* Suicidal ideation group:
** '''Less specific autobiographical memories (more OGM)'''
** '''More hopelessness'''
** '''Less effective problem-solving strategies'''
* OGM associated with:
** poorer problem solving
** greater hopelessness
* Evidence for a “cycle”:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM → poor problem solving → hopelessness → suicidal ideation&lt;/blockquote&gt;

'''Interpretation:'''

* OGM may contribute to suicidal ideation by '''impairing cognitive functioning''', especially problem solving
* Supports a '''cognitive pathway to suicide risk'''

'''Insights'''

* Studies suicidal ideation directly.
* Mechanism displayed: OGM --&gt; problem solving --&gt; hopelessness --&gt; suicidal ideation
* Within-depression comparison

'''Limitations'''

* n=40
* Cross-sectional, lacks causality
* Specific country (Iran)

=== Zhu et al. (2025) – OGM &amp; suicidal ideation (ML study) ===

* Clinical sample (n=88 depressed patients; with vs without suicidal ideation across severity levels)
* Used '''AMT + machine learning + vocal features''' to distinguish suicidal ideation

'''Findings:'''

* Patients with suicidal ideation:
** '''More OGM (fewer specific memories)'''
** Especially impaired recall of '''positive memories'''
* OGM strongly associated with '''severity of suicidal ideation'''
* ML model showed:
** OGM features were key for identifying '''presence of suicidal ideation'''
** Depression severity features ≠ sufficient to predict SI

'''Interpretation:'''

* OGM is a '''specific cognitive marker of suicidal ideation''', not just a byproduct of depression
* Supports:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM contributes uniquely to suicidal ideation beyond general depression&lt;/blockquote&gt;'''Insights'''

* OGM is unique in contribution/specifically tied to SI.
* Separated depression anxiety and suicidal ideation.

OGM is not merely a correlate of depression, but a distinct cognitive vulnerability that contributes specifically to suicidal ideation.

=== Weiss-Cowie et al. (2023) — Meta-analysis on OGM &amp; depression ===
'''🔑 Core findings (clean summary)'''

* Massive meta-analysis ('''67 studies''')
* Depressed individuals show:
** '''Less specific memories''' → ''(g = −0.73)''
** '''More overgeneral memories''' → ''(g = 0.77)''

👉 That’s '''medium–large effect sizes''' → very strong evidence
----'''🧠 Important conceptual findings'''

'''1. OGM exists across:'''

* Current depression
* Subthreshold depression
* Remitted depression

👉 Translation:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM is not just a “currently depressed” phenomenon&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----'''2. Trait vs state (VERY important for your work)'''

* OGM persists even after remission
* But is '''stronger during active depression'''

👉 This supports:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM = '''trait vulnerability that gets amplified during depression'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----'''3. Supports CaR-FA-X model'''

* Capture &amp; rumination
* Functional avoidance
* Executive dysfunction

👉 This is your '''mechanism backbone paper'''

=== Crane et. al (2016) ===

* Year: '''2016''' (so not “new,” but still solid)
* Design: '''Large longitudinal cohort (ALSPAC)'''
* Sample: ~5,700 adolescents

* Timeline:
** OGM at age 13
** Outcomes at age 16

'''Conclusions'''&lt;blockquote&gt;'''No meaningful relationship between OGM and later:'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;

* Depression
* Suicidal ideation
* Self-harm

After controlling for confounds.

This paper is basically saying:&lt;blockquote&gt;“OGM is NOT a general population risk factor for later psychopathology.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;More precisely:

* Works in:
** Clinical samples
** High-risk groups
* '''Does NOT generalize to community samples'''

'''Insights'''

* high-quality longitudinal data

'''1. Show inconsistency'''&lt;blockquote&gt;“While some studies show associations between OGM and suicidality, large community-based longitudinal evidence suggests no such relationship.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----'''2. Introduce moderation / context argument'''&lt;blockquote&gt;“These discrepancies suggest that OGM may function as a vulnerability factor only under specific conditions (e.g., clinical populations, high-risk individuals).”&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----'''3. Strengthen your theoretical argument'''

This paper supports:

* '''CaR-FA-X conditional vulnerability'''
* '''Diathesis-stress framing'''

=== Hallford et. al (2022) ===

* Year: '''2022 → recent'''
* Type: '''Systematic review + meta-analysis'''
* Focus: OGM in '''remitted depression'''

* Sample: '''17 studies'''

'''Conclusion'''

* People with '''remitted depression''':
** Recall '''fewer specific memories''' (g ≈ -0.31)
** Recall '''more overgeneral/categoric memories''' (g ≈ +0.25)

👉 These are '''small–moderate effects''', but consistent.
----&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM '''persists even after depression is gone'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;This is HUGE.
----&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM may be a '''trait-like cognitive vulnerability''', not just a symptom&lt;/blockquote&gt;The paper explicitly frames it as:

* A '''risk factor for future depressive episodes'''

'''Insights'''

'''🔗 The missing link:'''

* OGM persists '''after depression'''
* OGM predicts '''future depressive symptoms'''

'''👉 So logically:'''

* OGM is not just a byproduct
* It’s a '''stable vulnerability mechanism'''

We can argue: OGM = vulnerability → (depression) → suicidal ideation.

=== Watkins et. al (2020) ===

* Year: '''2000 (older, but foundational)'''
* Type: '''Experimental study'''

* Focus: Can OGM be '''changed/manipulated in real time?'''

'''Conclusions'''

'''1. Distraction ↓ OGM'''

* Less overgeneral memory when people stop ruminating

----'''2. Decentring ↓ OGM'''

* Thinking more flexibly → more '''specific memories'''

----'''3. Rumination ↑/maintains OGM'''

* Overthinking keeps memory vague

----'''🧠 Big takeaway:'''&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM is '''not fixed''' — it depends on your '''current cognitive state'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;...could we argue:

* '''Rumination → OGM'''
* '''OGM → poor problem solving / hopelessness'''

* '''→ Suicidal ideation'''

'''Limitations'''

* ❌ Small sample (N=48)
* ❌ Experimental / lab setting
* ❌ Not about suicidal ideation directly

* ❌ Older study

=== Young et. al (2013) – OGM in MDD &amp; high-risk individuals (fMRI study) ===

* Sample:
** MDD patients
** High-risk individuals (family history)
** Healthy controls

* Used '''autobiographical memory task + fMRI'''

'''Behavioral findings'''

* Both '''MDD and high-risk groups''':
** '''Fewer specific memories'''
** '''More overgeneral (categorical) memories'''
* High-risk group ≈ MDD group (no major difference)

👉 Huge point:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM exists '''before depression fully develops'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;'''Insights'''

* Differences in:
** '''medial prefrontal cortex'''
** '''anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)'''
** '''occipital regions'''

👉 These areas are tied to:

* self-referential thinking
* emotion processing
* rumination (&quot;[https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3794427/#S3 there nonetheless seems to be a general convergence on the anterior cortical midline structures as playing an important role in maladaptive rumination in major depression]&quot;)

* '''OGM''' appears to exist in people that don't have depression, so OGM is a risk factor.
* Observes people who ''become'' depressed, not just depressed people.
* OGM is linked to brain systems involved in self-focus and rumination. That connects directly to:
** CaR-FA-X
** hopelessness
** suicidal ideation pathways

'''Limitations'''

* Super small sample (n=16)
* Neuroimaging, not suicide-oriented.

=== Stange et al. (2013) – OGM × emotional maltreatment → depression ===

* Longitudinal adolescent sample (N=174, age ~12–13)

* Tested:&lt;blockquote&gt;'''Does OGM interact with stress (emotional abuse/neglect) to predict depression?'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;

'''Findings'''

1. OGM alone ≠ strong predictor

* OGM '''by itself did not strongly predict depression'''

----2. OGM × emotional abuse → ↑ depression

* Among adolescents with '''high emotional abuse''':
** More OGM → '''greater increases in depressive symptoms'''
* Among low-stress individuals:
** OGM had little effect

----3. Key interpretation:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM is a '''vulnerability factor that requires stress to activate'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----4. Mechanism support

Paper explicitly links OGM to:

* rumination
* avoidance
* poor problem solving

'''Insights'''

* '''A clean diathesis-stress model is present''': explaining the connection between OGM and SI, while explaining why OGM is not a predictor [as seen in this study and the insights amongst low-stress individuals].
*

'''🔗 Integration:'''

* Crane (2016):&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM doesn’t predict SI in general population&lt;/blockquote&gt;
* Stange (2013):&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM only matters when '''stress is present'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;

👉 That resolves the contradiction

What could we get from this? &quot;OGM may not independently predict psychopathology but interacts with stressors (e.g., emotional maltreatment) to increase vulnerability.&quot;

'''Background'''

* Mentions [https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6053985/ the integrated motivational–volitional model of suicidal behaviour] by O'Conner&lt;ref&gt;The '''integrated motivational-volitional (IMV) model of suicidal behavior''', dividing it into three phases: pre-motivational, motivational, and volitional. Firstly, the pre-motivational phase is composed of diathesis, environment, and life events, describing the background factors and triggering events. Secondly, the motivational phase focuses on the psychological processes of suicidal ideation and intent. Finally, the volitional phase governs the transition from suicidal ideation to suicide attempts.&lt;/ref&gt;.
* Mentions number of studies associating OGM with suicide: &quot;''...it could be inferred that OGM mediates the suicidal process by preventing the individuals from solving problems and envisioning the future by searching in the past experience, thereby creating a feeling of hopelessness and helplessness.''&quot;
* [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S2352250X21000129 MeST] ↑ generalization of autobiographical memory ↓
* '''Research question(s)?''' No clear evidence to show how childhood trauma &amp; OGM interact in the suicidal process and whether depression is a ''moderating'' effect.
* '''Hypothesis?''' OGM has different effects on the suicide process in depression patients and healthy individuals.
* '''Purpose of study?''' Aimed to compare childhood trauma, OGM, suicidal ideation, and suicidal behavior between depression patients and healthy individuals, and explore the differences caused by depression in suicidal pathways.

'''Method'''

* '''356 Chinese participants'''.
** '''180 depressed participants''': (''n'' = 121) 67.2% of the depressed patients were depressed for more than a year.

* Presence vs absence of CSA '''did NOT differ in OGM'''
** (because sample already highly clinical)

'''Interpretation'''

* Not trauma itself → but '''timing of trauma (early development)''' matters
* Supports idea that OGM develops when:
** memory systems are still forming
** avoidance becomes a learned coping style

'''Insights'''

# Analysis of OGM in a suicidal population.
# Moore &amp; Zoellner had trauma alone ≠ OGM, while Crane &amp; Duggan added some trauma characteristics from early developmental trauma.
# ''To take note'': Earlier trauma is associated with greater OGM '''within high-risk groups.'''

=== Champagne et al. (2016) – OGM in adolescent MDD ===

* Clinical adolescent sample (ages 11–18; current MDD, remitted MDD, never depressed)
* Tested whether OGM is '''state (only during depression)''' or '''trait (persists after)'''

'''Findings:'''

* Adolescents with '''current AND remitted MDD''' showed more OGM than controls
* No significant difference between current vs remitted groups
* OGM present for both '''positive and negative cues'''

'''Interpretation:'''

* OGM is likely a '''trait-like vulnerability''', not just a temporary symptom
* May contribute to '''risk of recurrence''' in depression

'''1. Trait vs state question (very important)'''

This paper directly answers:&lt;blockquote&gt;Is OGM just a symptom or a vulnerability?&lt;/blockquote&gt;👉 Answer: '''likely vulnerability'''

That’s big for your argument.
----'''2. Adolescent + clinical sample'''

* Not just adults
* Not just community

👉 Stronger relevance than many papers
----'''3. Fits your mechanism pathway''' Supports:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM persists → increases long-term risk → can feed into suicidal ideation&lt;/blockquote&gt;'''Limitations'''

* Small sample (n=65 total)
* Cross-sectional → can’t prove causality

* Can’t tell if OGM came '''before''' depression or is a “scar”

=== Arie et al. (2008) – OGM, problem solving &amp; suicidal behavior ===

* Clinical adolescent inpatient sample (suicidal vs nonsuicidal vs healthy controls)
* Tested Williams’ model linking OGM, problem solving, and suicide

'''Findings:'''

* Suicidal adolescents showed:
** '''More OGM (less specific memory)'''
** '''Worse interpersonal problem-solving ability'''
** '''Higher hopelessness'''
* OGM significantly correlated with:
** poorer problem solving
** higher hopelessness
** greater suicidal behavior
* Negative childhood life events also linked to OGM and suicide

'''Interpretation:'''

* Supports pathway:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM → poor problem solving → hopelessness → suicidal behavior&lt;/blockquote&gt;
* OGM may limit access to specific past experiences needed to solve problems effectively

'''Insights'''

* Study on population actually attempting suicide.
* Points out a clear pathway
* Suicidal group had lowest memory specificity, worst problem-solving abilities, and highest hopelessness

'''Limitations'''

* n=75, small sample
* cross sectional, so causality can not be pinpointed
* inpatient sample, so cannot be generalizable

=== Kaviani et al. (2011) – OGM, problem solving &amp; suicidal ideation ===

* Clinical sample: depressed patients '''with vs without suicidal ideation'''
* Tested links between OGM, problem solving, depression, and hopelessness

'''Findings:'''

* Suicidal ideation group:
** '''Less specific autobiographical memories (more OGM)'''
** '''More hopelessness'''
** '''Less effective problem-solving strategies'''
* OGM associated with:
** poorer problem solving
** greater hopelessness
* Evidence for a “cycle”:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM → poor problem solving → hopelessness → suicidal ideation&lt;/blockquote&gt;

'''Interpretation:'''

* OGM may contribute to suicidal ideation by '''impairing cognitive functioning''', especially problem solving
* Supports a '''cognitive pathway to suicide risk'''

'''Insights'''

* Studies suicidal ideation directly.
* Mechanism displayed: OGM --&gt; problem solving --&gt; hopelessness --&gt; suicidal ideation
* Within-depression comparison

'''Limitations'''

* n=40
* Cross-sectional, lacks causality
* Specific country (Iran)

=== Zhu et al. (2025) – OGM &amp; suicidal ideation (ML study) ===

* Clinical sample (n=88 depressed patients; with vs without suicidal ideation across severity levels)
* Used '''AMT + machine learning + vocal features''' to distinguish suicidal ideation

'''Findings:'''

* Patients with suicidal ideation:
** '''More OGM (fewer specific memories)'''
** Especially impaired recall of '''positive memories'''
* OGM strongly associated with '''severity of suicidal ideation'''
* ML model showed:
** OGM features were key for identifying '''presence of suicidal ideation'''
** Depression severity features ≠ sufficient to predict SI

'''Interpretation:'''

* OGM is a '''specific cognitive marker of suicidal ideation''', not just a byproduct of depression
* Supports:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM contributes uniquely to suicidal ideation beyond general depression&lt;/blockquote&gt;'''Insights'''

* OGM is unique in contribution/specifically tied to SI.
* Separated depression anxiety and suicidal ideation.

OGM is not merely a correlate of depression, but a distinct cognitive vulnerability that contributes specifically to suicidal ideation.

=== Weiss-Cowie et al. (2023) — Meta-analysis on OGM &amp; depression ===
'''🔑 Core findings (clean summary)'''

* Massive meta-analysis ('''67 studies''')
* Depressed individuals show:
** '''Less specific memories''' → ''(g = −0.73)''
** '''More overgeneral memories''' → ''(g = 0.77)''

👉 That’s '''medium–large effect sizes''' → very strong evidence
----'''🧠 Important conceptual findings'''

'''1. OGM exists across:'''

* Current depression
* Subthreshold depression
* Remitted depression

👉 Translation:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM is not just a “currently depressed” phenomenon&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----'''2. Trait vs state (VERY important for your work)'''

* OGM persists even after remission
* But is '''stronger during active depression'''

👉 This supports:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM = '''trait vulnerability that gets amplified during depression'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----'''3. Supports CaR-FA-X model'''

* Capture &amp; rumination
* Functional avoidance
* Executive dysfunction

👉 This is your '''mechanism backbone paper'''

=== Crane et. al (2016) ===

* Year: '''2016''' (so not “new,” but still solid)
* Design: '''Large longitudinal cohort (ALSPAC)'''
* Sample: ~5,700 adolescents

* Timeline:
** OGM at age 13
** Outcomes at age 16

'''Conclusions'''&lt;blockquote&gt;'''No meaningful relationship between OGM and later:'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;

* Depression
* Suicidal ideation
* Self-harm

After controlling for confounds.

This paper is basically saying:&lt;blockquote&gt;“OGM is NOT a general population risk factor for later psychopathology.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;More precisely:

* Works in:
** Clinical samples
** High-risk groups
* '''Does NOT generalize to community samples'''

'''Insights'''

* high-quality longitudinal data

'''1. Show inconsistency'''&lt;blockquote&gt;“While some studies show associations between OGM and suicidality, large community-based longitudinal evidence suggests no such relationship.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----'''2. Introduce moderation / context argument'''&lt;blockquote&gt;“These discrepancies suggest that OGM may function as a vulnerability factor only under specific conditions (e.g., clinical populations, high-risk individuals).”&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----'''3. Strengthen your theoretical argument'''

This paper supports:

* '''CaR-FA-X conditional vulnerability'''
* '''Diathesis-stress framing'''

=== Hallford et. al (2022) ===

* Year: '''2022 → recent'''
* Type: '''Systematic review + meta-analysis'''
* Focus: OGM in '''remitted depression''' [&quot;Remitted depression refers to a period after a major depressive episode where symptoms are absent or minimal for at least two months, while active depression involves ongoing, significant symptoms&quot;]

* Sample: '''17 studies'''

'''Conclusion'''

* People with '''remitted depression''':
** Recall '''fewer specific memories''' (g ≈ -0.31)
** Recall '''more overgeneral/categoric memories''' (g ≈ +0.25)

👉 These are '''small–moderate effects''', but consistent.
----&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM '''persists even after depression is gone'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;This is HUGE.
----&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM may be a '''trait-like cognitive vulnerability''', not just a symptom&lt;/blockquote&gt;The paper explicitly frames it as:

* A '''risk factor for future depressive episodes'''

'''Insights'''

'''🔗 The missing link:'''

* OGM persists '''after depression'''
* OGM predicts '''future depressive symptoms'''

'''👉 So logically:'''

* OGM is not just a byproduct
* It’s a '''stable vulnerability mechanism'''

We can argue: OGM = vulnerability → (depression) → suicidal ideation.

=== Watkins et. al (2020) ===

* Year: '''2000 (older, but foundational)'''
* Type: '''Experimental study'''

* Focus: Can OGM be '''changed/manipulated in real time?'''

'''Conclusions'''

'''1. Distraction ↓ OGM'''

* Less overgeneral memory when people stop ruminating

----'''2. Decentring ↓ OGM'''

* Thinking more flexibly → more '''specific memories'''

----'''3. Rumination ↑/maintains OGM'''

* Overthinking keeps memory vague

----'''🧠 Big takeaway:'''&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM is '''not fixed''' — it depends on your '''current cognitive state'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;...could we argue:

* '''Rumination → OGM'''
* '''OGM → poor problem solving / hopelessness'''

* '''→ Suicidal ideation'''

'''Limitations'''

* ❌ Small sample (N=48)
* ❌ Experimental / lab setting
* ❌ Not about suicidal ideation directly

* ❌ Older study

=== Young et. al (2013) – OGM in MDD &amp; high-risk individuals (fMRI study) ===

* Sample:
** MDD patients
** High-risk individuals (family history)
** Healthy controls

* Used '''autobiographical memory task + fMRI'''

'''Behavioral findings'''

* Both '''MDD and high-risk groups''':
** '''Fewer specific memories'''
** '''More overgeneral (categorical) memories'''
* High-risk group ≈ MDD group (no major difference)

👉 Huge point:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM exists '''before depression fully develops'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;'''Insights'''

* Differences in:
** '''medial prefrontal cortex'''
** '''anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)'''
** '''occipital regions'''

👉 These areas are tied to:

* self-referential thinking
* emotion processing
* rumination (&quot;[https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3794427/#S3 there nonetheless seems to be a general convergence on the anterior cortical midline structures as playing an important role in maladaptive rumination in major depression]&quot;)

* '''OGM''' appears to exist in people that don't have depression, so OGM is a risk factor.
* Observes people who ''become'' depressed, not just depressed people.
* OGM is linked to brain systems involved in self-focus and rumination. That connects directly to:
** CaR-FA-X
** hopelessness
** suicidal ideation pathways

'''Limitations'''

* Super small sample (n=16)
* Neuroimaging, not suicide-oriented.

=== Stange et al. (2013) – OGM × emotional maltreatment → depression ===

* Longitudinal adolescent sample (N=174, age ~12–13)

* Tested:&lt;blockquote&gt;'''Does OGM interact with stress (emotional abuse/neglect) to predict depression?'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;

'''Findings'''

1. OGM alone ≠ strong predictor

* OGM '''by itself did not strongly predict depression'''

----2. OGM × emotional abuse → ↑ depression

* Among adolescents with '''high emotional abuse''':
** More OGM → '''greater increases in depressive symptoms'''
* Among low-stress individuals:
** OGM had little effect

----3. Key interpretation:&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM is a '''vulnerability factor that requires stress to activate'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;
----4. Mechanism support

Paper explicitly links OGM to:

* rumination
* avoidance
* poor problem solving

'''Insights'''

* '''A clean diathesis-stress model is present''': explaining the connection between OGM and SI, while explaining why OGM is not a predictor [as seen in this study and the insights amongst low-stress individuals].
*

'''🔗 Integration:'''

* Crane (2016):&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM doesn’t predict SI in general population&lt;/blockquote&gt;
* Stange (2013):&lt;blockquote&gt;OGM only matters when '''stress is present'''&lt;/blockquote&gt;

👉 That resolves the contradiction

What could we get from this? &quot;OGM may not independently predict psychopathology but interacts with stressors (e.g., emotional maltreatment) to increase vulnerability.&quot;

''What we doing?'' Integrating OGM → suicidal ideation within a structured model (IMV + mechanisms).

==Introduction==
'''[[w:Overgeneral_autobiographical_memory|Overgeneral autobiographical memory]]''' (OGM) describes a reduced ability to recall specific events in one's autobiographical memory. For example, one may remember attending a birthday party at some point in their life, but they could not uniquely recall a specific instance of attending a birthday party. OGM has been empirically associated with depression, with depressed individuals reporting higher levels of OGM than non-depressed individuals&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Sumner|first=Jennifer A.|last2=Griffith|first2=James W.|last3=Mineka|first3=Susan|date=2010-07|title=Overgeneral autobiographical memory as a predictor of the course of depression: a meta-analysis|url=https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2878838/|journal=Behaviour Research and Therapy|volume=48|issue=7|pages=614–625|doi=10.1016/j.brat.2010.03.013|issn=1873-622X|pmc=2878838|pmid=20399418}}&lt;/ref&gt;.

The IMV model portrays suicidal behavior as an escalating, behavioral process divided into three phases: pre-motivational phase, motivational phase, and volitional phase. The motivational phase is characterized by suicidal ideation formation, where feelings of entrapment (described as a &quot;proximal [predictor] of suicidal ideation&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=O'Connor|first=Rory C.|last2=Kirtley|first2=Olivia J.|date=2018-09-05|title=The integrated motivational-volitional model of suicidal behaviour|url=https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6053985/|journal=Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London.

The current literature aims to shed light on a neglected niche of suicide research: autobiographical memory. Despite the overwhelming research suggesting correlations between OGM and depression and suicidal ideation, research has not thoroughly explored OGM's exact role in a cognitive, theoretical framework of suicidal ideation (specifically within the IMV model). By conducting a narrative review and integrating research on OGM's role in suicidal ideation, this paper furthers understanding on OGM's role in suicidal ideation.

A meta analysis performed by Sumner et. al (2010) found that OGM accounted for 1-2% of depression cases&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Sumner|first=Jennifer A.|last2=Griffith|first2=James W.|last3=Mineka|first3=Susan|date=2010-07|title=Overgeneral autobiographical memory as a predictor of the course of depression: a meta-analysis|url=https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2878838/|journal=Behaviour Research and Therapy|volume=48|issue=7|pages=614–625|doi=10.1016/j.brat.2010.03.013|issn=1873-622X|pmc=2878838|pmid=20399418}}&lt;/ref&gt;. A 2020 study found that OGM affected depressed patients' current suicidal ideation state (through the effect of childhood trauma) and worse suicidal point, while OGM affected only affected the healthy patients' worst suicidal point&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jiang|first=Wen|last2=Hu|first2=Guangtao|last3=Zhang|first3=Jingxuan|last4=Chen|first4=Ken|last5=Fan|first5=Dongni|last6=Feng|first6=Zhengzhi|date=2020-10-12|title=Distinct effects of over-general autobiographical memory on suicidal ideation among depressed and healthy people|url=https://doi.org/10.1186/s12888-020-02877-6|journal=BMC Psychiatry|language=en|volume=20|issue=1|pages=501|doi=10.1186/s12888-020-02877-6|issn=1471-244X|pmc=7549224|pmid=33046032}}&lt;/ref&gt;. However, Crane et. al (2016) conducted a longitudinal study of n≈5800 adolescents from ages 13 to 16 and found that OGM was not significantly associated with depression and did not moderate the effect of life events, suggesting OGM may be present in only high-risk/depressed populations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Crane|first=Catherine|last2=Heron|first2=Jon|last3=Gunnell|first3=David|last4=Lewis|first4=Glyn|last5=Evans|first5=Jonathan|last6=Williams|first6=J.

Even though the findings indicated that OGM was not significantly associated with depression, it highlights the presence of OGM in high-risk populations and, thus, warrants further research on [memory implementation] invertentions?

OGM persists even past depression, as found in a 2025 study. Participants diagnosed with depression were significantly associated with overgeneralized autobiographical memory, but....

A 2020 study found that OGM was associated with depressed patients' current suicidal ideation state and worse-point suicidal ideation, while OGM affected the healthy patients' worse-point suicidal ideation&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Jiang|first=Wen|last2=Hu|first2=Guangtao|last3=Zhang|first3=Jingxuan|last4=Chen|first4=Ken|last5=Fan|first5=Dongni|last6=Feng|first6=Zhengzhi|date=2020-10-12|title=Distinct effects of over-general autobiographical memory on suicidal ideation among depressed and healthy people|url=https://doi.org/10.1186/s12888-020-02877-6|journal=BMC Psychiatry|language=en|volume=20|issue=1|pages=501|doi=10.1186/s12888-020-02877-6|issn=1471-244X|pmc=7549224|pmid=33046032}}&lt;/ref&gt;. However, Crane et. al (2016) conducted a longitudinal study of n≈5800 adolescents from ages 13 to 16 and found that OGM was not significantly associated with depression and did not moderate the effect of life events, suggesting OGM may not be as generalizable to community samples vs. high-risk populations&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Crane|first=Catherine|last2=Heron|first2=Jon|last3=Gunnell|first3=David|last4=Lewis|first4=Glyn|last5=Evans|first5=Jonathan|last6=Williams|first6=J.

Even though the findings indicated that OGM was not significantly associated with depression, it highlights that OGM may function as a vulnerability within high-risk populations and, thus, warrants further research on memory-specific interventions.

OGM persists even past depression, as found in Hallford et. al (2022). A meta-analysis indicated that participants with remitted depression continue to experience small to moderate deficiencies in being able to recall &quot;specific, event-level personal memories&quot;. This indicates that OGM isn't merely a symptom of depression, but may function as a risk factor for future depressive episodes&lt;ref&gt;{{Cite journal|last=Hallford|first=David John|last2=Rusanov|first2=Danielle|last3=Yeow|first3=Joseph J.

== PROJECT: YAHOO BUSINESS RESURRECTION PLAN ==
'''Prepared by:''' [[User:Mariela A. Velez|Mariela A. Velez]]  
'''Selected Company:''' Yahoo  
'''Date:''' May 4, 2026  

== 1. CASE STUDY AUDIT (Why did the company decline?) ==
Based on my research on [[Wikipedia]], here are the reasons why this company struggled with its Information System:

* '''Legacy Issue:''' Yahoo relied on an outdated web portal system and failed to modernize its core technologies.
* '''Failure to Adapt:''' Yahoo missed key opportunities in search engine innovation and social media development.
* '''Competitor Edge:''' Competitors like Google and Facebook offered faster, smarter, and more user-friendly platforms.

== 2. PROPOSED MAINTENANCE &amp; ADAPTATION PLAN ==
If I were the Operations Manager at that time, these are the steps I would take to prevent the company from failing:

=== A. System Upgrade (Evolutionary Maintenance) ===
These are the new technologies that should be adopted:

# '''Digital Transition:''' Improve Yahoo’s search engine and develop modern mobile apps for email, news, and communication.
# '''Cloud Integration:''' Store all user data in cloud systems to improve speed, accessibility, and reliability.

=== B. Preventive Maintenance (Monthly Checklist) ===
To ensure the business stays operational, here is our routine:

* '''Data Backup:''' Perform daily backups to prevent loss of emails and user data.
* '''Security Patching:''' Update system security monthly to prevent hacking and data breaches.
* '''User Feedback Audit:''' Regularly review user feedback to improve system performance and user experience.

== 3. BUSINESS CONTINUITY (The &quot;Plan B&quot;) ==
If the main system crashes, these are the actions we will take:

* '''Backup Server:''' Use redundant cloud servers so if one fails, another remains operational.
* '''Emergency Protocol:''' Send notifications to users within 10 minutes regarding system issues and recovery updates.

== 4. CONCLUSION ==
Proper '''Information System Operation and Maintenance''' is not just an expense; it is an investment. If Yahoo had continuously improved its systems and adapted to modern trends, it could have remained competitive and avoided being overtaken by its competitors.

== ClickForge (Unbreakable Business Plan) ==


'''Business Name: ClickForge'''

An Online Store for Digital Products: E-books, templates, digital planners, and online courses.

Business Start-Up

'''Step 1: Choose Your Niche'''

Decide what type of digital products you will sell. Choose @something you understand or are interested in.

'''Examples:'''

• E-books (study guides, business tips)

• Templates (resume, Canva designs, planners) 

• Online courses

'''Step 2: Create Your Digital Products'''

• Design using Canva, Google Docs, or PowerPoint

• Ensure your products are:
        • Useful
        • Easy to understand
        • High quality
'''Example:'''

“Editable Student Planner (Canva Template)”

'''Step 3: Set Up Your Online Store'''

'''You can sell using:'''

• Social media (Facebook, TikTok, Instagram)

• Marketplaces (RaketsPH, Etsy)

'''Make sure your store has:'''

• Product descriptions

• Prices

• Easy payment options

• Download access after purchase

'''Step 4: Set Up Your Payment Method'''

• Enable secure payments (GCash, PayPal, bank transfer)

• Ensure fast and safe transactions

'''Step 5: Test Your System'''
'''Before launching:'''

• Try buying your own product

• Check if download works

• Confirm payment is successful

This prevents customer complaints later.

'''Step 6: Launch Your Business'''

• Promote your business online

• Offer discounts for first buyers

• Collect feedback

'''Business Manual (SOP)'''

Maintenance Checklist

'''1.''' '''Backup Schedule'''

'''Customer Data (orders, emails, payments)'''

Backup every 1 hour (automatic cloud backup)

'''Website &amp; Digital Products:'''

• Backup daily

'''Full System Backup (offsite/cloud)'''

• Backup weekly

'''Why this matters:'''

Ensures quick recovery and prevents data loss.

'''2'''. '''Security Check'''

To protect ClickForge and its users:
   • Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
   • Require strong passwords
   • Conduct weekly security scans
   • Install firewall and anti-malware tools
'''Why this matters:'''

Prevents hacking and keeps customer information safe.

'''3.''' '''Emergency Contact System'''

If ClickForge experiences system failure:
   • IT Support / Web Developer
   • Web Hosting Provider
   • Payment Gateway Support
'''Why this matters:'''

Quick response minimizes downtime and financial loss.

'''4'''. '''System Monitoring'''
   • Use 24/7 monitoring tools
   • Set up automatic alerts (email/SMS)
   • Check system performance daily
'''Why this matters:'''

Issues are detected early before affecting customers.

'''5. Redundancy Plan (Plan B)'''
   • Maintain a backup website or server
   • Use cloud-based storage systems
   • Prepare a manual order system (Google Forms or email)
'''Why this matters:'''

Even if the main website fails, ClickForge can still accept orders.

'''AUDIT TRAIL (CHANGE LOG)'''

Every update must include a reason (Edit Summary).

'''Examples:'''

“Added hourly backup to prevent data loss during system crash.”

“Updated security steps to improve account protection.”

“Included emergency contacts for faster response during downtime.”

&quot;Added backup order system as Plan B during website failure.” [[User:Ninix8|Ninix8]] ([[User talk:Ninix8|discuss]] • [[Special:Contributions/Ninix8|contribs]]) 15:49, 4 May 2026 (UTC)</text>

== PROJECT: INFORMATION SYSTEM RECOVERY AND INNOVATION PLAN ==

'''Prepared by:''' [[User:McJadeRequina|Mc Jade L. Requina]]

'''Chosen Company:''' Blockbuster LLC

'''Date:''' {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}

== 1. CASE STUDY AUDIT (Why did the company fail?) ==
Based on my research from [[Wikipedia]], here are the reasons why this company struggled with its Information System:

'''Legacy Issue:''' The company relied heavily on physical DVD rentals and in-store transactions instead of digital systems.

'''Failure to Adapt:''' It failed to transition quickly into online streaming and subscription-based services.

'''Competitor Edge:''' Netflix introduced a more convenient streaming platform with better technology and user experience.

== 2. PROPOSED MAINTENANCE &amp; ADAPTATION PLAN ==
If I were the Operations Manager at that time, these are the steps I would take to prevent the company from failing:

=== A. System Upgrade (Evolutionary Maintenance) ===
These are the new technologies that should be adopted:

'''Digital Transition:''' Develop an online streaming platform and mobile application for customers.

'''Cloud Integration:''' Store movies and user data in cloud servers for fast and reliable access.

'''Subscription System:''' Introduce a monthly subscription model similar to streaming services.

=== B. Preventive Maintenance (Monthly Checklist) ===
To ensure the business stays operational, here is the routine:

'''Data Backup:''' Perform weekly backups to secure customer and movie database records.

'''Security Patching:''' Update system security monthly to protect against cyber threats.

'''User Feedback Audit:''' Regularly collect feedback to improve streaming quality and user experience.

== 3. BUSINESS CONTINUITY (The &quot;Plan B&quot;) ==
If the main system crashes, these are the actions to be taken:

'''Backup Server:''' Use cloud-based backup servers to maintain continuous streaming service.

'''Emergency Protocol:''' Notify users immediately through email or app notifications within 10 minutes.

== 4. CONCLUSION ==
Proper '''Information System Operation and Maintenance''' is not just a cost; it is an investment. If Blockbuster LLC had adapted to digital transformation early, it could have competed with Netflix and remained successful in the entertainment industry.

== Friendster - BUSINESS RESURRECTION PLAN ==

{{/header template}}
 == PROJECT: BUSINESS RESURRECTION PLAN ==
'''Prepared by:''' [[User:MarkfrancisSatumbaga|Mark Francis Satumbaga]]
 '''Chosen Company:''' Friendster
 '''Date:''' May 5, 2026

== 1. CASE STUDY AUDIT (Why did the company fail?) ==
 Based on my research from [[Wikipedia]], here are the reasons why the company struggled with its Information System:
'''Legacy Issue:''' The platform had weak system infrastructure, causing frequent slowdowns and crashes.

'''Failure to Adapt:''' The company failed to upgrade its features and keep up with modern social media trends.

'''Competitor Edge:''' Competitors like Facebook and MySpace offered faster, more interactive, and user-friendly platforms.

== 2. PROPOSED MAINTENANCE &amp; ADAPTATION PLAN ==
 If I were the Operations Manager at that time, these are the steps I would take to prevent the company from failing:

=== A. System Upgrade (Evolutionary Maintenance) ===
 These are the technologies that should be adopted:
'''Digital Transition:''' Upgrade the platform with modern features such as news feed, messaging, and a mobile application.

'''Cloud Integration:''' Use cloud-based servers to improve system speed, scalability, and reliability.

=== B. Preventive Maintenance (Monthly Checklist) ===
 To ensure system stability, the following routine should be implemented:
'''Data Backup:''' Perform regular backups of user data to prevent data loss.

'''Security Patching:''' Update the system regularly to protect against cyber threats.

'''User Feedback Audit:''' Analyze user feedback to continuously improve the platform.

== 3. BUSINESS CONTINUITY (The &quot;Plan B&quot;) ==
 In case of system failure, the following actions should be taken:
'''Backup Server:''' Use backup servers to minimize downtime and maintain service availability.

'''Emergency Protocol:''' Immediately notify users and resolve issues as quickly as possible.

== 4. CONCLUSION ==
 Proper '''Information System Operation and Maintenance''' is essential for business success. If Friendster had improved its system earlier, it could have remained competitive in the fast-changing social media industry.

{{/header template}}
== PROJECT: COMPAQ BUSINESS RESURRECTION PLAN ==

'''Prepared by:''' [[JULE VINCENT DELA CRUZ]]  

'''Selected Company:''' Compaq  

'''Date:''' May 5, 2026  

---

== 1. CASE STUDY AUDIT (Why did the company decline?) ==
Based on my research on [[Wikipedia]], here are the reasons why this company struggled:

* '''Legacy Issue:''' Compaq relied heavily on traditional PC hardware systems without focusing on modern software integration.  
* '''Failure to Adapt:''' The company failed to shift towards laptops, cloud computing, and mobile technologies early enough.  
* '''Competitor Edge:''' Competitors like Dell and HP adopted more flexible production systems and modern IT solutions.  

---

== 2. PROPOSED MAINTENANCE &amp; ADAPTATION PLAN ==

=== A. System Upgrade (Evolutionary Maintenance) ===
# '''Digital Integration:''' Combine hardware with cloud-based services and software solutions.  
# '''Product Innovation:''' Develop portable devices and modern computing systems.  

=== B. Preventive Maintenance (Monthly Checklist) ===
* '''Data Backup:''' Ensure system data and configurations are regularly backed up.  
* '''System Monitoring:''' Monitor hardware and software performance.  
* '''User Feedback Audit:''' Gather feedback to improve product design and functionality.  

---

== 3. BUSINESS CONTINUITY (The &quot;Plan B&quot;) ==
* '''Backup Server:''' Use cloud systems to support business operations during failures.  
* '''Emergency Protocol:''' Provide technical support and system recovery solutions quickly.  

---

== 4. CONCLUSION ==
Effective '''Information System Maintenance''' is essential for staying competitive. If Compaq had adapted to modern computing trends, it could have sustained its position in the market.
