== Support for Bodo Wikisource (Ws/brx) on Wikimedia Incubator ==

Hello,

I am working on setting up Bodo Wikisource (language code: brx) on Wikimedia Incubator.
I would like guidance on ProofreadPage, Index creation, and language approval process.

Bodo is an officially recognized language of India and is written in Devanagari script.

Thank you. [[User:Bkbrahma1|Bkbrahma1]] ([[User talk:Bkbrahma1|talk]]) 07:37, 21 January 2026 (UTC)

== Page language ==

It is possible to change page language from default to Lingua Franca Nova (&lt;code&gt;lfn&lt;/code&gt; for [[Main Page/Lingua Franca Nova]], [[La Prea a Senior]] and [[Jura de Hipocrate]]? Thanks in advance. [[User:Evelino Ucelo|Evelino Ucelo]] ([[User talk:Evelino Ucelo|talk]]) 17:10, 5 February 2026 (UTC)

== Best place to translate meta-works about the capture of knowledge? ==

There are some interesting freely licensed works about librarianship, archiving, and the like.  E.g. this recent paper on [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VMkNDcY1KBH1YV0QOVGs38o6eetUTddj/view Content Authenticity and Provenance ] -- which are often in just one language and not well indexed, but bear preserving and translating.  Is there a good WS project or collection for such things?  Does it make sense to have a language-neutral wikiproject for collecting this type of knowledge across the field? [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 18:52, 11 February 2026 (UTC)

:{{en|My initial thought is that it makes the most sense to transcribe the original text on [[:en:]] (or whatever the source language is) and then allow the other languages' projects to pursue their own translations in accordance with their own policies. Perhaps coordination could be done via a multilingual wikiproject, like [[Wiksource:WikiProject Translations]] or similar. I've just started looking around the multilingual wikisource myself so I'm not sure if we have any more infrastructure than the mere ''possibility ''of organizing such a thing. -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 22:43, 2 March 2026 (UTC)}}

== Did some Author category cleanup, thinking about next steps ==

{{en| Good morning all, I recently moved around a bunch of categories in [[:Category:Authors]]. Notable additions include [[:Category:Authors by language]], [[:Category:Authors by profession]]. I also updated [[WS:LANG]] to include a column for language-specific Author categories, which are also (generally) collected in [[:Category:Authors by language]]. There is presently no consistent organization for the language author categories, which I think is fine, but I'd be interested in making some kind of consistency which we can use going forward.
: My thinking is that we could create categories like [[:Category:eng authors]] or [[:Category:zho authors]] for all of the languages represented here on multi-language wikisource with ISO-639 codes. Then, either redirect those pages to their respective language-specific Author categories (when they exist); or use them as their own category which would then be categorized into both the language's category and [[:Category:Authors by language]]. For example, [[:Category:lv authors]] would redirect to the Latvian-language [[:Category:Autori]], while [[:Category:tpn authors]] would serve as the equivalent Tupi-language category. This would help provide some useful infrastructure to support new languages works and authors in the future. 
: Thoughts? I'm open to suggestions. Don't want to be overly English-oriented, or create too much administrative burden for new users and language content. -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 18:26, 3 March 2026 (UTC)}}
:{{en|An additional thought: I think it would be helpful if we created category pages for each ISO 639-1 code, possibly -2 or -3 as well for at least the languages included on multilingual wikisource and on their own subdomains. These would generally redirect to the language categories. For example, [[:Category:en]] would redirect to [[:Category:English]], [[:Category:lv]] would redirect to [[:Category:Ladin]], [[:Category:Ru]] would redirect to [[:Category:Русский]]. This would just be helpful for quickly categorizing works without having to find the specific &quot;correct&quot; category. Again, let me know what you think.

== TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) gadget ==

{{ping|Pecha-pema|Abhignkr47|Saaifa|Mathmitch7}} and anyone interested. Greetings, pleasure to meet you and sorry to disturb. Apologies for writing in English. You appear to be the most active on Multilingual Wikisource of the latest days. I'm sorry for whoever interested I did not alert, I did not want to send out too many unwanted pings.

In short, I have written a gadget that can render [[w:Text Encoding Initiative|TEI XML]]-format texts as HTML. (You can turn it on in your preferences and check how it handles [[TEI:Fare i ri ëvetar shqip]]. A brief explanation is at [[Wikisource:TEI Gadget]].) It is a format used for a more scholarly kind of transcription, mainly used for palaeography, manuscripts or thorough critical digital editions. This is not meant as a replacement of the current situation but a way to better digitalise the cases which are not well-handled by Wikitext.

For technical reasons, mostly about security, the solution requires a new namespace (i.e. the thing that comes the colon in a page title, like &lt;code&gt;Page:&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code&gt;Talk:&lt;/code&gt;), so I have to file a technical request for the namespace &lt;code&gt;TEI:&lt;/code&gt;. As regrettably scatterful as this project is, I assume that such a change would not be carried through without an attempt at a discussion with other editors. For this reason, I ask here whether any of you would oppose such a change.

Thank you for your love of writing, and the work you do to record it. :) [[User:Catonif|Catonif]] ([[User talk:Catonif|talk]]) 16:23, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
{{en|Personally I'm fine with having a TEI: namespace or something similar. Support for this kind of document format would be very helpful and putting TEI documents into their own namespace seems like a good way to integrate it with our existing workflow, using a TEI: page as a source and then transcluding it to a normal &quot;work&quot; namespace using a template/Lua module.
: However, I would like to see us think about how we could use TEI or TEI markup alongside the existing Page transcription and transclusion workflow. I think one of the best things about Wikisource is that pages in the mainspace are generally linked back to their source scan in an easily verifiable, traceable, and auditable way. Although TEI is great for transcriptions, I don’t yet see an analogue for that particular type of &quot;backing&quot; to a scan. The example document you link has source information, but some work would need to be done to get to something as granular as what we already have for scan verification and to support proofreading efforts.
: That all being said, if the gadget works and TEI-XML is as robust as it appears to be, I’m fine with doing what must be done to implement support for it. If that includes a special namespace, at least here on multilingual ws, I '''support'''. Cheers! -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 19:45, 13 March 2026 (UTC)}}
::Hello, thanks for your thoughts and your support! :) I agree that scan-backed transcription is the strongest point of boast for Wikisource. The thing is that the transformers are very versatile, which isn't well visible by the example I gave, which only shows two almost-identical transformer schemes, with the only difference being script (if it can help get the idea, the green-boxed header is also generated by a transformer of the same structure.) With this in mind, my thought was to have &quot;Original scan&quot; as one of the selectable transformers (i.e. a column), which is fairly easily doable, just requires for the transformer to ignore all tags, except for &lt;code&gt;&lt;pb/&gt;&lt;/code&gt; (&quot;page break&quot;), which would show the images.
::I was going to implement this, I didn't because there is an unrelated [[phab:T418178|ongoing bug]] which makes the pages of DJVU files not display. See for example [[Page:Veqilharxhi - Ëvetar (1845).djvu/1]] (the same work already in wikitext). The page image used to work a while ago. So for now it would have looked like a bunch of error messages in mainspace. But it's definitely doable once the bug is fixed. :)
::This to me is also a way to make the scans more immediately accessible to the reader. I find them to be very valuable, especially in cases of manuscripts and other kind of texts in which TEI in particular shines, and having scans into a separate namespace always felt a bit like hiding them to me. The idea of having them user-toggleable seemed quite neat.
::Admittedly, it is true that it will never be as easy. TEI is inevitable much more cumbersome, difficult to learn and master, and in many cases harder to read from the source. The main workspace of editors using will most likely never be the Wikisource editor box, but rather VS Code with the &quot;Scholarly XML&quot; extension (AFAIK, most accessible widely used TEI environment), or similar software. For these reason, I emphasise that that TEI is meant for those who particularly have a lot of time and dedication at their disposal, and are willing to go through the hardships that are required to get something of academic quality. The vast majority of texts will be kept in wikitext. [[User:Catonif|Catonif]] ([[User talk:Catonif|talk]]) 20:32, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
:What are the security concerns of having such a namespace enabled and how would you deal with them? Recently there was a mass deletion of random articles in multiple wikis because of a personal JS script gone rogue. PS: (I am well in favor of offering the wide community a sufficiently good for them standard for transcribing. Also I guess there is plenty of text already transcribed this way we could incorporate.) [[User:Ignacio Rodríguez|Ignacio Rodríguez]] ([[User talk:Ignacio Rodríguez|talk]]) 11:36, 1 April 2026 (UTC)
::{{ping|Ignacio Rodríguez}} Sorry for the late reply, I didn't see your message, and thank you for your support. Since my post here I have come to a solution, which is to handle the TEI-to-HTML transformation within Lua, and let the gadget only handle the columns display. This has a number of disadvantages: JavaScript is much better at handling XML (it was infact built for that purpose), now a separate [[Module:XML|Lua XML parser]] is required and we are likely to hit Lua's memory limit with files too large, while a pure JS implementation was much easier to maintain and had no limitations. However we cannot let just any editor write JavaScript that runs on other people's browsers, as the event you mention exemplifies, so the script pages would have needed to be protected under some specific right. But being able to edit and write these scripts is such a central thing for my intended versatile implementation of TEI that I would rather hit the memory limit rather than only allowing very few people to benefit from the infrastructure. As such, the security justification should be gone once I fully implement the Lua solution, and the namespace will be requested only for conceptual reasons. [[User:Catonif|Catonif]] ([[User talk:Catonif|talk]]) 20:24, 12 April 2026 (UTC)
:::@[[User:Catonif|Catonif]] maybe it would be better in the long run to build a TEI MediaWiki extension. The gadget is fine by now, but memory limits are concerning. I am no coder but I can cheer you up. For the record I support the creation of the TEI Namespace.

== Images for &quot;toki soweli tan jan Beatrix Potter&quot; are broken because of an incorrect thumbnail size ==

When trying to edit [[toki soweli tan jan Beatrix Potter]], all of the page images are broken. (Example: [https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fd/Toki_soweli_tan_jan_Beatrix_Potter.pdf/page938-872px-Toki_soweli_tan_jan_Beatrix_Potter.pdf.jpg Page 938], obtained from the &quot;Image&quot; tab at the top of [[Page:Toki soweli tan jan Beatrix Potter.pdf/938]])

It looks like this is because the images are using 872px as the thumbnail size. Setting the size of the thumbnail manually in the URL to 960px (or any of the other sizes listed [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Common_thumbnail_sizes here]) fixes the issue ([https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fd/Toki_soweli_tan_jan_Beatrix_Potter.pdf/page938-960px-Toki_soweli_tan_jan_Beatrix_Potter.pdf.jpg fixed URL for page 938]).

Is there a way for the default thumbnail size be changed to something other than 872px so the images show up properly in the editor?

Thanks in advance.

{{en|This strikes me as a weird quirk or possible bug in ProofreadPage. I can confirm that I get the same kind of broken page image, using Firefox 148.0.2 for Windows, and the Monobook skin. I’ll see if I can force a fix by just purging some pages here and on commons, as sometimes that fixes issues with PDFHandler. Otherwise, we can try posting over to [[:mw:Project:Village Pump]] and see if anybody knows if it’s related to a known and tracked issue, or if it needs a new issue reported. -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 18:23, 23 March 2026 (UTC)}}

== Proposed changes to [[Main Page]] ==

I think we should:
#Move it to [[Wikisource:Main Page]] and
#Include some text introducing that this is a stand-alone wiki, not just a portal. I think we should explain that this wiki hosts:
#*Multilingual works
#*Works in a language with too small a corpus
#*Works that are incubating to a subdomain
#*Works that are made up of non-linguistic content
#*Works with languages that have subdomains but that won't accept a particular work for whatever reason

{{en|I think about this a lot, and I don’t have a great answer. Honestly, my ideal would be to split multi-lingual WS into mul.wikisource.org, and organize it as its own project, and make this main wikisource.org ''just'' a portal to those other sites, similar to how Wikipedia works (and by default redirecting all traffic to specific pages to the page on mul.ws). I think that would be clearer to people, including editors. However, that’s a pretty big change, and I wouldn’t move forward with it without substantial discussion both here and at individual language subdomains.
: In the meantime, I think your proposal’s points are reasonable. I don’t see a particular reason to move the main page to [[Wikisource:Main Page]], but everything else seems fine. I would also add that the main page should specifically say &quot;Welcome to Multilingual Wikisource.&quot; -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 13:01, 30 March 2026 (UTC)}}
: I agree with Mathmitch7. Moving to mul.wikisource.org seems like a good idea. Like Wikidata and Wikispecies, we should have a centralized and organized Main Page for each language using Extension:Translate --[[User:Namoroka|Namoroka]] ([[User talk:Namoroka|talk]]) 09:27, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

:::That's fair enough. Even so, multilingual WS has over 61,000 pages in the main namespace, about double the size of [[:pt:Wikisource:Página_principal|Portuguese Wikisource]].

== 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! [[User:ZI Jony|ZI Jony]] using [[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 17:11, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

'''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.

== Support for Bodo Wikisource (Ws/brx) on Wikimedia Incubator ==

Hello,

I am working on setting up Bodo Wikisource (language code: brx) on Wikimedia Incubator.
I would like guidance on ProofreadPage, Index creation, and language approval process.

Bodo is an officially recognized language of India and is written in Devanagari script.

Thank you. [[User:Bkbrahma1|Bkbrahma1]] ([[User talk:Bkbrahma1|talk]]) 07:37, 21 January 2026 (UTC)

== Page language ==

It is possible to change page language from default to Lingua Franca Nova (&lt;code&gt;lfn&lt;/code&gt; for [[Main Page/Lingua Franca Nova]], [[La Prea a Senior]] and [[Jura de Hipocrate]]? Thanks in advance. [[User:Evelino Ucelo|Evelino Ucelo]] ([[User talk:Evelino Ucelo|talk]]) 17:10, 5 February 2026 (UTC)

== Best place to translate meta-works about the capture of knowledge? ==

There are some interesting freely licensed works about librarianship, archiving, and the like.  E.g. this recent paper on [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VMkNDcY1KBH1YV0QOVGs38o6eetUTddj/view Content Authenticity and Provenance ] -- which are often in just one language and not well indexed, but bear preserving and translating.  Is there a good WS project or collection for such things?  Does it make sense to have a language-neutral wikiproject for collecting this type of knowledge across the field? [[User:Sj|Sj]] ([[User talk:Sj|talk]]) 18:52, 11 February 2026 (UTC)

:{{en|My initial thought is that it makes the most sense to transcribe the original text on [[:en:]] (or whatever the source language is) and then allow the other languages' projects to pursue their own translations in accordance with their own policies. Perhaps coordination could be done via a multilingual wikiproject, like [[Wiksource:WikiProject Translations]] or similar. I've just started looking around the multilingual wikisource myself so I'm not sure if we have any more infrastructure than the mere ''possibility ''of organizing such a thing. -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 22:43, 2 March 2026 (UTC)}}

== Did some Author category cleanup, thinking about next steps ==

{{en| Good morning all, I recently moved around a bunch of categories in [[:Category:Authors]]. Notable additions include [[:Category:Authors by language]], [[:Category:Authors by profession]]. I also updated [[WS:LANG]] to include a column for language-specific Author categories, which are also (generally) collected in [[:Category:Authors by language]]. There is presently no consistent organization for the language author categories, which I think is fine, but I'd be interested in making some kind of consistency which we can use going forward.
: My thinking is that we could create categories like [[:Category:eng authors]] or [[:Category:zho authors]] for all of the languages represented here on multi-language wikisource with ISO-639 codes. Then, either redirect those pages to their respective language-specific Author categories (when they exist); or use them as their own category which would then be categorized into both the language's category and [[:Category:Authors by language]]. For example, [[:Category:lv authors]] would redirect to the Latvian-language [[:Category:Autori]], while [[:Category:tpn authors]] would serve as the equivalent Tupi-language category. This would help provide some useful infrastructure to support new languages works and authors in the future. 
: Thoughts? I'm open to suggestions. Don't want to be overly English-oriented, or create too much administrative burden for new users and language content. -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 18:26, 3 March 2026 (UTC)}}
:{{en|An additional thought: I think it would be helpful if we created category pages for each ISO 639-1 code, possibly -2 or -3 as well for at least the languages included on multilingual wikisource and on their own subdomains. These would generally redirect to the language categories. For example, [[:Category:en]] would redirect to [[:Category:English]], [[:Category:lv]] would redirect to [[:Category:Ladin]], [[:Category:Ru]] would redirect to [[:Category:Русский]]. This would just be helpful for quickly categorizing works without having to find the specific &quot;correct&quot; category. Again, let me know what you think.

== TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) gadget ==

{{ping|Pecha-pema|Abhignkr47|Saaifa|Mathmitch7}} and anyone interested. Greetings, pleasure to meet you and sorry to disturb. Apologies for writing in English. You appear to be the most active on Multilingual Wikisource of the latest days. I'm sorry for whoever interested I did not alert, I did not want to send out too many unwanted pings.

In short, I have written a gadget that can render [[w:Text Encoding Initiative|TEI XML]]-format texts as HTML. (You can turn it on in your preferences and check how it handles [[TEI:Fare i ri ëvetar shqip]]. A brief explanation is at [[Wikisource:TEI Gadget]].) It is a format used for a more scholarly kind of transcription, mainly used for palaeography, manuscripts or thorough critical digital editions. This is not meant as a replacement of the current situation but a way to better digitalise the cases which are not well-handled by Wikitext.

For technical reasons, mostly about security, the solution requires a new namespace (i.e. the thing that comes the colon in a page title, like &lt;code&gt;Page:&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code&gt;Talk:&lt;/code&gt;), so I have to file a technical request for the namespace &lt;code&gt;TEI:&lt;/code&gt;. As regrettably scatterful as this project is, I assume that such a change would not be carried through without an attempt at a discussion with other editors. For this reason, I ask here whether any of you would oppose such a change.

Thank you for your love of writing, and the work you do to record it. :) [[User:Catonif|Catonif]] ([[User talk:Catonif|talk]]) 16:23, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
{{en|Personally I'm fine with having a TEI: namespace or something similar. Support for this kind of document format would be very helpful and putting TEI documents into their own namespace seems like a good way to integrate it with our existing workflow, using a TEI: page as a source and then transcluding it to a normal &quot;work&quot; namespace using a template/Lua module.
: However, I would like to see us think about how we could use TEI or TEI markup alongside the existing Page transcription and transclusion workflow. I think one of the best things about Wikisource is that pages in the mainspace are generally linked back to their source scan in an easily verifiable, traceable, and auditable way. Although TEI is great for transcriptions, I don’t yet see an analogue for that particular type of &quot;backing&quot; to a scan. The example document you link has source information, but some work would need to be done to get to something as granular as what we already have for scan verification and to support proofreading efforts.
: That all being said, if the gadget works and TEI-XML is as robust as it appears to be, I’m fine with doing what must be done to implement support for it. If that includes a special namespace, at least here on multilingual ws, I '''support'''. Cheers! -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 19:45, 13 March 2026 (UTC)}}
::Hello, thanks for your thoughts and your support! :) I agree that scan-backed transcription is the strongest point of boast for Wikisource. The thing is that the transformers are very versatile, which isn't well visible by the example I gave, which only shows two almost-identical transformer schemes, with the only difference being script (if it can help get the idea, the green-boxed header is also generated by a transformer of the same structure.) With this in mind, my thought was to have &quot;Original scan&quot; as one of the selectable transformers (i.e. a column), which is fairly easily doable, just requires for the transformer to ignore all tags, except for &lt;code&gt;&lt;pb/&gt;&lt;/code&gt; (&quot;page break&quot;), which would show the images.
::I was going to implement this, I didn't because there is an unrelated [[phab:T418178|ongoing bug]] which makes the pages of DJVU files not display. See for example [[Page:Veqilharxhi - Ëvetar (1845).djvu/1]] (the same work already in wikitext). The page image used to work a while ago. So for now it would have looked like a bunch of error messages in mainspace. But it's definitely doable once the bug is fixed. :)
::This to me is also a way to make the scans more immediately accessible to the reader. I find them to be very valuable, especially in cases of manuscripts and other kind of texts in which TEI in particular shines, and having scans into a separate namespace always felt a bit like hiding them to me. The idea of having them user-toggleable seemed quite neat.
::Admittedly, it is true that it will never be as easy. TEI is inevitable much more cumbersome, difficult to learn and master, and in many cases harder to read from the source. The main workspace of editors using will most likely never be the Wikisource editor box, but rather VS Code with the &quot;Scholarly XML&quot; extension (AFAIK, most accessible widely used TEI environment), or similar software. For these reason, I emphasise that that TEI is meant for those who particularly have a lot of time and dedication at their disposal, and are willing to go through the hardships that are required to get something of academic quality. The vast majority of texts will be kept in wikitext. [[User:Catonif|Catonif]] ([[User talk:Catonif|talk]]) 20:32, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
:What are the security concerns of having such a namespace enabled and how would you deal with them? Recently there was a mass deletion of random articles in multiple wikis because of a personal JS script gone rogue. PS: (I am well in favor of offering the wide community a sufficiently good for them standard for transcribing. Also I guess there is plenty of text already transcribed this way we could incorporate.) [[User:Ignacio Rodríguez|Ignacio Rodríguez]] ([[User talk:Ignacio Rodríguez|talk]]) 11:36, 1 April 2026 (UTC)
::{{ping|Ignacio Rodríguez}} Sorry for the late reply, I didn't see your message, and thank you for your support. Since my post here I have come to a solution, which is to handle the TEI-to-HTML transformation within Lua, and let the gadget only handle the columns display. This has a number of disadvantages: JavaScript is much better at handling XML (it was infact built for that purpose), now a separate [[Module:XML|Lua XML parser]] is required and we are likely to hit Lua's memory limit with files too large, while a pure JS implementation was much easier to maintain and had no limitations. However we cannot let just any editor write JavaScript that runs on other people's browsers, as the event you mention exemplifies, so the script pages would have needed to be protected under some specific right. But being able to edit and write these scripts is such a central thing for my intended versatile implementation of TEI that I would rather hit the memory limit rather than only allowing very few people to benefit from the infrastructure. As such, the security justification should be gone once I fully implement the Lua solution, and the namespace will be requested only for conceptual reasons. [[User:Catonif|Catonif]] ([[User talk:Catonif|talk]]) 20:24, 12 April 2026 (UTC)
:::@[[User:Catonif|Catonif]] maybe it would be better in the long run to build a TEI MediaWiki extension. The gadget is fine by now, but memory limits are concerning. I am no coder but I can cheer you up. For the record I support the creation of the TEI Namespace. [[User:Ignacio Rodríguez|Ignacio Rodríguez]] ([[User talk:Ignacio Rodríguez|talk]]) 22:44, 12 April 2026 (UTC)
::::{{ping|Ignacio Rodríguez}} Absolutely agreed. There exist, in fact, [[mw:Extension:TEI]] and [[mw:Extension:CETEIcean]], which I tried testing around, on my own installing of MediaWiki. These are not very well documented projects and it was quite difficult to untangle something out of the code, but to me these seem overly complicated systems with a much more limited outcome, lacking the versatility that TEI was built with in mind, hence not very fit for a project like Wikisource. Furthermore, Extension:TEI, from a quick glance, does not appear to be fully TEI-compliant, allowing for questionable tag names (see [https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-TEI/blob/master/includes/Converter/TeiToHtmlConversion.php here]), as &lt;code&gt;&lt;hi-rend-big&gt;&lt;/code&gt; instead of &lt;code&gt;&lt;hi rend=&quot;big&quot;&gt;&lt;/code&gt;, while CETEIcean is not HTML-compliant, as you can see from your inspector on [https://codecs.vanhamel.nl/Cetei:AU-test this example], with tag names like &lt;code&gt;&lt;tei-p&gt;&lt;/code&gt; in the HTML fed straight to the browser. I had even tried making my own extension, only to realise that it is much beyond my capabilities, and eventually settled for an awkward Lua implementation. Then I got the idea of a much cleaner JavaScript system, only to come back to Lua in the end for the reasons described. My hope is that my implementation is merely a proof of concept for someone more knowledgeable to notice and make better.

Setting the size of the thumbnail manually in the URL to 960px (or any of the other sizes listed [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Common_thumbnail_sizes here]) fixes the issue ([https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fd/Toki_soweli_tan_jan_Beatrix_Potter.pdf/page938-960px-Toki_soweli_tan_jan_Beatrix_Potter.pdf.jpg fixed URL for page 938]).

Is there a way for the default thumbnail size be changed to something other than 872px so the images show up properly in the editor?

Thanks in advance.

{{en|This strikes me as a weird quirk or possible bug in ProofreadPage. I can confirm that I get the same kind of broken page image, using Firefox 148.0.2 for Windows, and the Monobook skin. I’ll see if I can force a fix by just purging some pages here and on commons, as sometimes that fixes issues with PDFHandler. Otherwise, we can try posting over to [[:mw:Project:Village Pump]] and see if anybody knows if it’s related to a known and tracked issue, or if it needs a new issue reported. -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 18:23, 23 March 2026 (UTC)}}

== Proposed changes to [[Main Page]] ==

I think we should:
#Move it to [[Wikisource:Main Page]] and
#Include some text introducing that this is a stand-alone wiki, not just a portal. I think we should explain that this wiki hosts:
#*Multilingual works
#*Works in a language with too small a corpus
#*Works that are incubating to a subdomain
#*Works that are made up of non-linguistic content
#*Works with languages that have subdomains but that won't accept a particular work for whatever reason
Thoughts on these changes? —[[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; 06:20, 25 March 2026 (UTC)
{{en|I think about this a lot, and I don’t have a great answer. Honestly, my ideal would be to split multi-lingual WS into mul.wikisource.org, and organize it as its own project, and make this main wikisource.org ''just'' a portal to those other sites, similar to how Wikipedia works (and by default redirecting all traffic to specific pages to the page on mul.ws). I think that would be clearer to people, including editors. However, that’s a pretty big change, and I wouldn’t move forward with it without substantial discussion both here and at individual language subdomains.
: In the meantime, I think your proposal’s points are reasonable. I don’t see a particular reason to move the main page to [[Wikisource:Main Page]], but everything else seems fine. I would also add that the main page should specifically say &quot;Welcome to Multilingual Wikisource.&quot; -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 13:01, 30 March 2026 (UTC)}}
: I agree with Mathmitch7. Moving to mul.wikisource.org seems like a good idea. Like Wikidata and Wikispecies, we should have a centralized and organized Main Page for each language using Extension:Translate --[[User:Namoroka|Namoroka]] ([[User talk:Namoroka|talk]]) 09:27, 4 April 2026 (UTC)
::I support revising our Main Page. Yet to split multi-lingual WS into mul.wikisource.org sounds excessive for now.--[[User:TunnelESON|TunnelESON]] ([[User talk:TunnelESON|talk]]) 03:56, 6 April 2026 (UTC)
:::That's fair enough. Even so, multilingual WS has over 61,000 pages in the main namespace, about double the size of [[:pt:Wikisource:Página_principal|Portuguese Wikisource]]. Just saying that splitting it off may be a good idea. But again, it's a bigger discussion. -- [[User:Mathmitch7|Mathmitch7]] ([[User talk:Mathmitch7|talk]]) 18:18, 6 April 2026 (UTC)
: Here’s some proposed wording in English. Let me know if that seems adequate: 
{{border|'''Welcome to Wikisource''', the free library that anyone can improve.

This is '''Multilingual Wikisource''', a site for works in all languages, and for connecting different language-specific Wikisource projects. Works on this site include: 
* [[:Category:Mul (Multiple languages)|Works in multiple languages]]
* Works in languages that do not have their own language subdomain (for example, languages with a small corpus)
* [[:Category:Zxx (No linguistic content)|Works made up of non-linguistic content]]

== 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! [[User:ZI Jony|ZI Jony]] using [[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 17:11, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

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/2026/15|Translations]] are available.

'''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.
* [[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]

Hi everyone,
I noticed there is a large backlog of pages tagged for deletion and vandalism/spam at [[Wikisource:Vandalism in progress]]. It seems that spam sometimes stays up for weeks without being handled. I would be happy to help out since I have experience using sysop tools and since I've helped out with some miscellaneous maintenance tasks here in the past! Thank you.

:'''Weak support''' Good eye and you've got [[Special:CentralAuth/Ternera|a decade of experience on WMF wikis]] with clear competence elsewhere. It's probably better for admins to have more experience &lt;em&gt;here&lt;/em&gt; than you have, so if you end up with admin rights, I'd be comfortable with them expiring in six months and then you can ask to re-up and they can be made indefinite if you've actually used the tools in the meantime. —[[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; 17:33, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

Hello! :) Trying out different things for the TEI gadget, I'm having some difficulties not being able to set a page [[mw:Help:ChangeContentModel|content model]] manually, which on this wiki is an action restricted to administrators. In addition to that, not having the right to delete entries, I am regrettably leaving a bunch of messy redirects or obsolete scripts all over the place. I already have the sysop right on the English Wiktionary. A temporary right, like the interface admin I was given here, would be perfectly fine. Cheers!

=Votes for removal of rights=
This areas is for votes to remove rights, either for inactivity or for misuse of rights (or any other reason).  Please vote/comment on whether you think that the users below should keep or lose their respective user rights.  Unless otherwise noted, users who have multiple rights will only have the rights under the particular section removed (i.e. a user with both admin and bureaucrat rights who is nominated for removal of bureaucrat rights, will retain their admin rights).  However, normally bureaucrats who lose their admin rights will also lose their bureaucrat rights.  Removals of some rights require a [[m:Steward|Steward]], after a discussion is closed with a result of removal, the closing editor should post a request on [[m:Steward requests/Permissions|meta]].

==Vote for removal of administrator privileges==
This section is for removal of admin rights (&quot;desysopping&quot;)  If you have been listed here due to inactivity, but intend to resume admin duties, please indicate this so that others can re-evaluate whether you should be desysopped.  Admins who are desysopped due to inactivity are encouraged to resume administration whenever they wish, either by talking to a bureaucrat or initiating a request above.  Admins who do not respond may be automatically desysopped after 30 days.

=Votes for removal of rights=
This areas is for votes to remove rights, either for inactivity or for misuse of rights (or any other reason).  Please vote/comment on whether you think that the users below should keep or lose their respective user rights.  Unless otherwise noted, users who have multiple rights will only have the rights under the particular section removed (i.e. a user with both admin and bureaucrat rights who is nominated for removal of bureaucrat rights, will retain their admin rights).  However, normally bureaucrats who lose their admin rights will also lose their bureaucrat rights.  Removals of some rights require a [[m:Steward|Steward]], after a discussion is closed with a result of removal, the closing editor should post a request on [[m:Steward requests/Permissions|meta]].

==Vote for removal of administrator privileges==
This section is for removal of admin rights (&quot;desysopping&quot;)  If you have been listed here due to inactivity, but intend to resume admin duties, please indicate this so that others can re-evaluate whether you should be desysopped.  Admins who are desysopped due to inactivity are encouraged to resume administration whenever they wish, either by talking to a bureaucrat or initiating a request above.  Admins who do not respond may be automatically desysopped after 30 days.

Hello! :) Trying out different things for the TEI gadget, I'm having some difficulties not being able to set a page [[mw:Help:ChangeContentModel|content model]] manually, which on this wiki is an action restricted to administrators. In addition to that, not having the right to delete entries, I am regrettably leaving a bunch of messy redirects or obsolete scripts all over the place. I already have the sysop right on the English Wiktionary. A temporary right, like the interface admin I was given here, would be perfectly fine. Cheers!

Hello! :) Trying out different things for the TEI gadget, I'm having some difficulties not being able to set a page [[mw:Help:ChangeContentModel|content model]] manually, which on this wiki is an action restricted to administrators. In addition to that, not having the right to delete entries, I am regrettably leaving a bunch of messy redirects or obsolete scripts all over the place. I already have the sysop right on the English Wiktionary. A temporary right, like the interface admin I was given here, would be perfectly fine. Cheers!

=Votes for removal of rights=
This areas is for votes to remove rights, either for inactivity or for misuse of rights (or any other reason).  Please vote/comment on whether you think that the users below should keep or lose their respective user rights.  Unless otherwise noted, users who have multiple rights will only have the rights under the particular section removed (i.e. a user with both admin and bureaucrat rights who is nominated for removal of bureaucrat rights, will retain their admin rights).  However, normally bureaucrats who lose their admin rights will also lose their bureaucrat rights.  Removals of some rights require a [[m:Steward|Steward]], after a discussion is closed with a result of removal, the closing editor should post a request on [[m:Steward requests/Permissions|meta]].

==Vote for removal of administrator privileges==
This section is for removal of admin rights (&quot;desysopping&quot;)  If you have been listed here due to inactivity, but intend to resume admin duties, please indicate this so that others can re-evaluate whether you should be desysopped.  Admins who are desysopped due to inactivity are encouraged to resume administration whenever they wish, either by talking to a bureaucrat or initiating a request above.  Admins who do not respond may be automatically desysopped after 30 days.

'''Hereby I request the admin rights''' for Wikisource(.org). I am user of the Czech Wiki (also German one etc.) since May 2004, beeing there admin since November 2004. As we would like to develop the Czech section of Wikisource, we are sure we would need an user there with admin right. I proposed on the Village pump that I will apply fort he rights and there was a great support for this in very short time (see [[cs:Wikipedie:Pod lípou (oznámení)#Spravcovská práva na Wikisource – zájem]]). Later on we surely will request for an own damain, it is in discussion now.  Thx. [[User:-jkb-|-jkb-]] 11:49, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

After the meta page [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_permissions#cs for requests] was locked, I spoke to ThomasV who suggested to put my sysop request right here. Once again: there is no cs:wikisource at the time, we shall probably apply for it, but for the present I would like to ge the admin rights here to carry the Czech section and probably to prepare our ouw subdomain. So, how should we go on? [[User:-jkb-|-jkb-]] 16:19, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

I have been an admin at en:wikipedia for about a year. I have a rudimentary reading knowledge of several European languages. I have contributed to en:wikipedia, fr:wikipedia, no:wikipedia, en:wikisource, en:wikiquote, commons, and meta. &amp;mdash;[[User:TheoClarke|Theo]] ([[User_talk:TheoClarke|(Talk)]] 18:19 3 January 2006

I oppose the nomination of User:TheoClarke as sysop. 
Reasons:
*He had about 50 edits at the time of nomination.
*He was not supported by anyone except by you.
*He proposed to delete a page after it was vandalized, without checking its history. I had to restore the page.
please revert this nomination if you can.
[[User:ThomasV|ThomasV]] 10:02, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

* '''Support'''. This candidate looks acceptable to me while he has edited more than 100 times by now. This multilingual site is no longer very active while dozens of language subdomains have broken away.--[[User:Jusjih|Jusjih]] 07:05, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

*&lt;strike&gt;'''Oppose.'''  The user has very few edits; after time, I may change my vote.  TheoClarke just needs some more experience.  I ''do'' like the fact that he will be contributing on this wiki in Catalan (since it currently does not have its own sub-domain).  We don't need any more administrators who are going to be popping in and out every once in a while, not really working on anything, but one who will be fairly active here.—[[User:Zhaladshar|&lt;font style=&quot;color: #000000; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Zhaladshar&lt;/font&gt;]] &lt;sup&gt;[[User talk:Zhaladshar|&lt;font style=&quot;color: #FF0000; font-size: small; text-decoration: none&quot;&gt;(Talk)&lt;/font&gt;]]&lt;/sup&gt; 18:32, 12 January 2006 (UTC)&lt;/strike&gt;
**'''Mild support'''.  I'm changing my vote to mild support.  From the time TheoClarke requested administrator rights to the current day, he's shown himself a capable editor.  And, he can work with pages I think very few of us can actually work with, which is a bonus.  If Theo would become a little more active here (as active as can be on this wiki--which I know isn't that much), I'd change my vote to full support.—[[User:Zhaladshar|&lt;font style=&quot;color: #000000; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Zhaladshar&lt;/font&gt;]] &lt;sup&gt;[[User talk:Zhaladshar|&lt;font style=&quot;color: #FF0000; font-size: small; text-decoration: none&quot;&gt;(Talk)&lt;/font&gt;]]&lt;/sup&gt; 17:07, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

* '''Just a little story'''. From somebody who is here since six months, anyway a sysop here. I am also a sysop on the cs:wiki. Shortly after I have been made a sysop there, once I saw in the Recent changes a new user, who made some five excellent articles in some two hours. So I wrote him and made an invitation, said have good luck here, congratulating him for this extreme good deal. I saved this edit. Five minutes later I opened the Recent changes again. Another sysop put all five edits of this new pretty user as copyvio - I have forgotten to controll this, that's all. After this I look after copyvio first. As this very complicated man from Russia (V. I. Lenin) said: learn, learn, learn (as I come from CS, so I had to learn this...). So, I do not want to vote for TheoClarke or against him, I just wanted to tell you this little story. [[User:-jkb-|-jkb-]] 19:00, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, but I still oppose this nomination. I agree that this user has been willing to participate in a constructive way; I even agree that he has made useful contributions, by adding language categories to many pages. However, the sheer number of edits is not a criterion. The nature of the mistakes he made is such that I cannot support him :
*This user proposed to delete a page that was vandalized, without checking its history. He would have deleted it &quot;on sight&quot; if he had been allowed to. this was at the time he applied. since then, he has made other mistakes.
*Apparently, he is not aware that we have a latin subdomain: he tried to &quot;improve&quot; [[Lorem ipsum]] on ws.org, while this file belongs in la.wikisource.org. This &quot;improvement&quot; consisted in copy-pasting information from wikipedia (in fifteen different languages) to wikisource. This suggests that he fails to understand the difference between wikipedia and wikisource, and the organization of wikisource. You have to check the edit history of [[Lorem ipsum]] to see that, because I deleted the file; it is no longer in his list of contributions. Anyway, I think that an admin should have a minimal understanding of what wikisource is and how it is organized. 
*He flagged work by Tomislav Dretar as copyvio. I know that not everybody is supposed to know who Dretar is; but still, this indicates that he has only very focused interest, in very specific questions, such as copyvio and language categories. 
*He spent time transwikifying [[British locations]] to wikipedia. since then they seem to have deleted it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_locations
*He made only 4 edits in the last month. Seems to have moved to other centers of interest.
*Finally, I guess this candidacy is still around simply because we nobody has archived it. 
[[User:ThomasV|ThomasV]] 19:28, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

::Many of the errors, to me, can be explained simply as being newly experienced to heavy editing at WS.  His ''Lorem ipsum'' mistake still happened in January, and holding that against him does not take into account all of February where he would have had time to learn more correct procedures.  But I'd rather not argue about these points.  Let's just archive the nomination; it doesn't seem that he's all that active here, so I see no reason to grant the rights.  Also, no real consensus was reached at the time that he applied for administrator rights.  If he wants them, he'll need to do a renomination for the position.—[[User:Zhaladshar|&lt;font style=&quot;color: #000000; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Zhaladshar&lt;/font&gt;]] &lt;sup&gt;[[User talk:Zhaladshar|&lt;font style=&quot;color: #FF0000; font-size: small; text-decoration: none&quot;&gt;(Talk)&lt;/font&gt;]]&lt;/sup&gt; 20:59, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure what the drill is here, as I dont see many recent requests for adminship.  I am an admin on en.WP, and a rather recent admin on en.WS, and would like to be an admin on this wiki for two reason:
# in order to drill down from the history there to here.  For example, [[s:en:Take up the cudgels in defence of Hungarian]] started off here on the main site as [[Take up the cudgels in defence of hungarian]] - it has recently come up on [[s:en:Wikisource:Proposed deletions]].  I would like to be able to see the deleted history here in order to properly investigate any clues in the history of it here.  I am sure this will not be the last time I am overly curious and would like to investigate the history here.
# to be available to quickly halt vandalism sprees, especially when it occurs in my TZ (GMT +10), such as the Grawp vandalism that happened here tonight.  In comparison, the vandal was blocked immediately on en.WS before any damage was done.  I don't have any edits here, but I will learn the ropes and help out when I know what I am doing.

*'''Support'''. We have virtually no new requests for adminship here once language subdomains have broken away, then admins here can longer administer Wikisource pages in all languages as adminship is not automatically cross-honoured among subdomains. For me, I have been an admin here before making subdomains, but I had to get separate adminship on English and Chinese Wikisources. For you, even though you have not had many edits here, I would like to welcome you based on your experience as an admin on English Wikipedia and Wikisource, so you can check page history that have not been fully transwikied. I have temporarily undeleted the article that you are concerned of for your desire. When finished, it can be deleted again.--[[User:Jusjih|Jusjih]] 03:08, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi. I am requesting for adminship on the Multilingual Wikisource as I plan to actively participate here for the long term. I've been quite active on many other wikis for nearly 2 years, as shown on my userpage. The wikis include English Wikipedia, Meta, Commons, Incubator, etc. (and now Wikisource). I should add that I have neither attained nor requested for previous admin rights on any wiki, but Wikisource is certainly a good place to start, where it's more calm and far less hectic than enwiki :)

On Oldwikisource, I have been actively updating and contributing to [[:Category:Coptic|Coptic Wikisource]], which has about 20 pages now. I have requested and took part in transferring and renaming it, along with [[:Category:Ancient Greek|Ancient Greek Wikisource]], to Multilingual Wikisource. Needless to say, it was a long task that took several hours ...so in that case, they're not likely going to have their own subdomains any time in the foreseeable future.

At this point, I am actively engaged in updating, correcting, and adding new pages in Wikisource, particularly in the development of Coptic Wikisource. I would like to have admin privileges in order to be able to edit additional pages such as MediaWiki options, remove vandalism, protect pages when needed, delete unnecessary or unhelpful pages (which can easily turn up in page moves), and do similar tasks that would require sysop rights.

If you would like a full list of other wikis that I have registered on, it is available [http://toolserver.org/~vvv/sulutil.php?user=Troy+07 here]. [[User:Troy 07|~Troy]] 02:11, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

I need sysop right for deletion ([[Index:Luzel - Gwerziou Breiz-Izel.djvu|near 170 page here]]) and help on the breton part but I will help on the whole wiki if needed (and apparently there is some need). I will do some add on [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] too (class text for example).

I am pretty sure most of the regulars know who I am; but just in case someone doesn't:  I request admin rights primarily so that I can view and possibly undelete old navigational pages and do other general admin tasks.  In addition to here, I'm active on the following wikisource subdomains: en.ws (admin and bot operator), la.ws (bureaucrat and bot operator), de.ws, and occasionally fr.ws and some others, I'm also active on the following other wikimedia projects: mw.org (admin and bot operator), meta (bot operator), and Commons.  One of my primary interests is cross-subdomain work in wikisource and I've set up an experimental wiki to test new processes and I've been active in interwiki linking issues as well as gnomish work like archiving this page. I currently have transwiki importer rights here (which are useless due to a [[Bugzilla:32411|bug]] and a pending, though somewhat stale, [[Wikisource:Scriptorium#Import Upload - revisited|request on Scriptorium for import upload privileges]].--[[User:Doug|Doug.]]&lt;sup&gt;([[User talk:Doug|talk]] &lt;small&gt;•&lt;/small&gt; [[Special:Contributions/Doug|contribs]])&lt;/sup&gt; 13:34, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

=== Aleator ===
Hello! It's been some months since I tag [[:Category:Gujarati|Gujarati]] pages for deletion, previous verification of the page in gu.source. Still 434 pages are pending deletion (plus its redirects). I was thinking that some admins may be hating me every time I tag a dozen of such pages (I can feel it! ;D) So what about giving me a &lt;u&gt;temporary adminship exclusively for deleting Gujarati pages&lt;/u&gt;? That would give you more time for other things (those deletions do not worth the consumption of double, golden, time). Once that all of them are deleted (and transfered to gu.source if they still are not there), then I'll ask for the removal of adminship. I don't want a permanent one because I'm already sysop at ca.source and es.source and that's too much yet. Thanks! -[[User Talk:Aleator|Aleator]] 23:08, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

Hello everyone, I am Satdeep Gill.

:: Hi [[User:Aleator]], As a sysop I would delete some useless pages if created while testing Google OCR on various scripts.

:::While I have no objections concerning the candidate's skils and responsibility, it is still unclear to me what '''temporary work''' the adminship rights are requested for (or for how long). The presented above justification for the request (at least its second part) suggests rather request for permanent, not temporary, adminship. Also, while it is likely for Hindi Wikisource to be separated soon, I don't think that about Punjabi, so I hope [[User:Satdeep Gill|Satdeep Gill]] will not leave us soon. I would suggest {{Ping|Satdeep Gill}} to be more precise about purpose for his adminship, or to start a new request for permanent adminship.

I think that his language skills make it a great opportunity for this wiki to widen and strong the sysop spectrum of capabilities, and in a long term way (because sysoping a user, usually makes him/her to stay longer in the wiki).

I know Bashkir writers who agree to publish their works in free access. I intend to recruit new authors and explain to them about the need for permission from the OTRS. I will put in order the Bashkir Wikisource.[[User:Lizalizaufa|Lizalizaufa]] ([[User talk:Lizalizaufa|talk]]) 17:02, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

Just to make sure that you understand what is the role of a sysop, can you tell me one or two things that you need to do on Bashkir texts that require sysop privilegies? --[[User:Candalua|Candalua]] ([[User talk:Candalua|talk]]) 09:00, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

Hello, [[User:Candalua|Candalua]]!
Specially took for clarity this page [[Гүзәл Ситдиҡова тәржемәләре]]
See: 1. No author's license (OTRS); 2. These texts are translations of works by other authors. It is necessary to authorize these authors or indicate a reference to &quot;literary heritage&quot;. 3. Each work should occupy a separate page (Indicate previous and subsequent works). 
  There are a lot of such pages. Here are some:
-  [[Тилебаш! (Пушкин/Ситдиҡова)]]
There are texts of the original (Russian) and translation (Bashkir). There is no reference to the original and the printed translation. And according to Wikisource rules, only works published somewhere are entitled to be placed.
- [[Башҡортостан(шиғыр). Гөлфиә Юнысова]]
  The link is invalid and there is no OTRS. And so on...
I agree to your re-voting conditions. Thank you! Waiting for an answer.[[User:Lizalizaufa|Lizalizaufa]] ([[User talk:Lizalizaufa|talk]]) 17:48, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

:[[User:Lizalizaufa|Lizalizaufa]]: ok, but for these things you don't necessarily need to be a sysop, you can just edit as an user... Do you need to delete pages? Do you need to edit protected pages? Do you need to block users or protect pages? If the answer to all these questions is &quot;no&quot;, then I'm afraid you may have misunderstood the role of the syop. --[[User:Candalua|Candalua]] ([[User talk:Candalua|talk]]) 21:42, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
: Hello, [[User:Candalua|Candalua]]!

Therefore, I wanted to take these responsibilities on myself. Moreover, I intend to coordinate this activity with the Union of Writers of the Republic of Bashkortostan, so that writers know who to contact, in case of questions on the [[https://wikisource.org/wiki/Main_Page/%D0%91%D0%B0%D1%88%D2%A1%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%82%D1%81%D0%B0]].

==Requests for bureaucrat rights==

===[[User:ThomasV]]===
Following the recent vote, I proposed to initialize subdomains with raw copies of the wikisource database. This method is proposed in order to keep page histories. ([[Wikisource talk:Language domain requests|see here for details]]). This method will involve admins deleting pages that are not in their proper subdomain. Although the method is designed to minimize the number of deletions, it will still require some work, and I guess it will be easier if we can nominate a few more sysops for that. I request bureaucrat rights in order to be able to create these new sysops. (at the moment, the only bureaucrat here is Eclecticology, and his last edit was more than 5 weeks ago.)

[[User:-jkb-|-jkb-]] is well known to the community as a long-term admin and former bureaucrat here (he resigned in 2012 due to inactivity). He is quite active now, taking much care about the project. After we have lost our coleague-bureaucrat, we have only two bureaucrats. I think it would be good to have more than the standard minimum.

In the last years I was quite active and I would like to be it in the future as well, with the same focus, but a bit more concerning the huge amount of probably copyvios here. It is true, that the role of the bureaucrats, after we finished the big SUL renaming, decreased a bit, but anyway I thing as well that one more bureacrat would be good for this project.

{{admin|Doug}}

I am an an admin and transwiki-importer on this project as well as a bot operator.  I am also an admin and bot operator on en.ws, mw.org, and en.wp and a bureaucrat, admin, and bot operator on la.ws.  I have experience using import-upload on private mw wikis.  I have previously requested importer (import-upload) rights on the [[Wikisource:Scriptorium|Scriptorium]] for this wiki, but the request was archived after only a few comments (see [[Wikisource:Scriptorium/Archives/Jan_2011_-_Dec_2011#Import_upload_privileges_and_bugs_with_transwiki|archives, here]]).  [[Wikisource:Scriptorium#Import_Upload_-_revisited|A renewed request]] received no comments after nearly two months, so on the suggestion of [[User:Ooswesthoesbes|Ooswesthoesbes]], I'm starting a thread here. 

To summarize the need, there is [[Bugzilla:32411|a bug]], which causes transwiki import to the multilingual wikisource to fail (except from &lt;del&gt;sv.ws&lt;/del&gt;&lt;ins&gt;sa.ws&lt;/ins&gt; last I checked).  The only way (that is consistent with the licenses) to replicate templates, etc. on mul.ws is to use the more powerful importupload right.  importupload can only be granted by a steward (and steward rights also include the right).  We have one importer, who happens to also be a steward (he has the importupload privilege independently for this project), [[User:Jusjih|Jusjih]].  As I am working on multilingual works and works that are here due to subdomain copyright policies, I want to be able to import templates easily without requesting this of Jusjih every time.  I have basically stopped work on a couple of projects due to the lack of templates.  As an active user, I would gladly do this for others as required.--[[User:Doug|Doug.]]&lt;sup&gt;([[User talk:Doug|talk]] &lt;small&gt;•&lt;/small&gt; [[Special:Contributions/Doug|contribs]])&lt;/sup&gt; 12:33, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Dear people, I would like to request import (upload) rights. I have been asked to import several pages from incubator. I am aware that we already have several users with import access, but I think it would be useful for the future, as I'm relatively active here and I am also an administrator on the incubator. --[[User:Ooswesthoesbes|Ooswesthoesbes]] ([[User talk:Ooswesthoesbes|talk]]) 14:57, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
: {{support}} As far as I can see we have just [https://wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AListUsers&amp;username=&amp;group=import&amp;limit=500 two importers] here (you surely mean ''import upload'' don't you); with this right should be handled very carefully, but I know Ooswesthoesbes as a very trusty user and will supposrt this; but however, we can support this request, then it will be necessary to ask the stewards for granting it. [[User:-jkb-|-jkb-]] ([[User talk:-jkb-|talk]]) 15:26, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
:{{support}} This right is very useful for massive import or while importing from/to non-standard namespaces (like Page/Index/Author). If we can expect more imports from incubator in future, maybe it is also worth to add &lt;code&gt;incubator:&lt;/code&gt; to &lt;code&gt;wgImportSources&lt;/code&gt; configuration variable for this wiki? (To allow all admins standard import from incubator.) I found, that the configuration change procedure is much slower than asking for rights, however. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 19:14, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
::@Ankry: Indeed, that would be a possibility. However, uploading an xml file is probably easier, as all the pages can be imported at once. --[[User:Ooswesthoesbes|Ooswesthoesbes]] ([[User talk:Ooswesthoesbes|talk]]) 20:04, 16 May 2017 (UTC)
:::I'm also an administrator at Incubator, but it's not appropriate for me to !vote here, as I'm not very active here. I'd point out, though, that because of the prefixes we use at Incubator, transwiki import is likely not to be feasible for large import tasks. Even if you could use the mechanism of transwiki import on a bulk scale for that purpose, you'd then have to rename all the pages to strip out the prefixes. So unless you ''also'' have a bot to do that, file import is a more efficient approach for this. [[User:StevenJ81|StevenJ81]] ([[User talk:StevenJ81|talk]]) 13:22, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

The Translate extension has been enabled here now, but for it to be used we need some [[Special:ListUsers/translationadmin|translation administrators]] that can mark pages for translation. I have many years of experience with it on Meta and on [[wmno:|Wikimedia Norge's wiki]] (under my work account), so I feel bold enough to nominate myself for this.

For those who don't know, a translation administrator can do the technical marking of pages for translation, so that normal users can actually translate them. Despite the name &quot;translation ''administrator''&quot;, one does not have to be an administrator to do this. If we were to discuss criteria for who can be one, I suggest simply (a) users who have experience with this from other wikis '''or''' (b) established users (maybe 100+ edits or so?) who are willing to learn how to use it. It's not very hard, and there is [[mw:Help:Extension:Translate/Page translation example|an easy tutorial available here]].

Two questions, {{ping|Minorax}}:
# which languages can you speak?

:{{ping|Zyephyrus}} See [[mw:Special:Contribs/Minorax]]. As for what the quote, it roughly translates to &quot;Hello Zyephyrus, Happy New Year. Quick question: now that the Walloon wikisource has its own subdomain, would the related pages here be deleted, or is it done automatically after a certain time?&quot;
::{{ping|Minorax}}, I had seen [[mw:Special:Contribs/Minorax|your contribs]] first thing after you requested these rights on December's 19th and I checked all that I could grasp of what you had done, here and on other wikies: what I thought of you is: this user does what announced, a reliable contributor. Then I have hesitated because  your translation &quot;would the related pages here be deleted?&quot; had been a misunderstanding, the question was: &quot;must I request these deletions?&quot;. So I was not sure whether it was important enough to tell you this or not.Now you know everything about what I thought. I agree to give you these rights now. --[[User:Zyephyrus|Zyephyrus]] ([[User talk:Zyephyrus|talk]]) 18:02, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

:{{ping|-jkb-}} I speak English (en) and Mandarin Chinese (zh) and have some (little) knowledge for Korean (ko), Malay (ms) &amp; French (fr). As for the second part, I have no idea.

:The main purpose of the [[mw:Extension:Translate|translation extension]] is to just simply make the page available to be translated into other languages by other editors. [[Wikisource:Bots]] is one of the few pages that has been marked for translation and is available in other languages, such as Italian &amp; Chinese. --[[User:Minorax|Minorax]] ([[User talk:Minorax|talk]]) 23:58, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

I agree with Koavf, this is a multilingual wiki, so there is a very good reason to have translation admins, and I think Minorax is a user that can be trusted. So I so no reason not to do that. --[[User:Ooswesthoesbes|Ooswesthoesbes]] ([[User talk:Ooswesthoesbes|talk]]) 07:30, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello :) I'd like to request translation admin rights. I'm already an admin, interface admin and translation admin on Wikidata, so I have experience with admin tools. I would specifically like the &lt;tt&gt;pagelang&lt;/tt&gt; flag (which [[Special:ListGroupRights]] says only admins and translation admins have) so that I can set page languages to the correct language - right now many pages in the main namespace are set to English (the default here) when they are not English - but I would be willing to help with making pages translatable as well. - [[User:Nikki|Nikki]] ([[User talk:Nikki|talk]]) 20:32, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

=== [[User:Nigmont|Nigmont]], request for flag 'suppressredirect' ===
I am asking for granting me, if that is possible, one special flag, namely:

* Not create redirects from source pages when moving pages (suppressredirect)

During my work in the Mordvinic Wikisources (Moksha and Erzya), I from time to time do mistakes in the created items (pages), and after those mistakes I am forced to do renaming to the proper name and put the needless redirect to deletion. I think it would be better that I could do renaming without creation of needless redirects and avoid bothering admins with requests to delete those futile redirects. I am not intending to use this flag outside of those local Wikisources (except, may be, in the cases of obviously needed help to good-faith users from other Wikisources). --[[User:Nigmont|Nigmont]] ([[User talk:Nigmont|talk]]) 17:15, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

* I guess it is a fine idea and I wouldn't have any objections, but according to [https://wikisource.org/wiki/Special:UserRights/Nigmont this page] it doesn't seems to be as easy... :-( somebody an idea? [[User:-jkb-|-jkb-]] ([[User talk:-jkb-|talk]]) 17:24, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

:* I myself also admit that it is, most likely, not possible without acquiring for me a user group having extended set of rights including this one. But at this moment I don't feel myself ready to get any of those user groups, I want only this specific flag. I it is possible then it would be fine; but if not (sigh) — allright, then let it stay as it has been before. --[[User:Nigmont|Nigmont]] ([[User talk:Nigmont|talk]]) 17:55, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

::::::: Hello {{ping|-jkb-}} do you mean here: to grant me adminship right now? If yes, then I ask to wait until the next year — see my message below. Anyway, even if you give me admin's rights right now, then it would be useless because I am not intending to be active in the Wikisource in December, neither as an admin nor even as a common user. --[[User:Nigmont|Nigmont]] ([[User talk:Nigmont|talk]]) 16:15, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

Thanks a lot to everyone who expressed support for my adminship, I was really surprized when I saw so many opinions of support! However, it seems to me that for getting to me admin's tools, a normal request for adminship must be created first, and all supportive (and contradictory if they exist) voices should be collected there, and only after that it would be correct to grant me admin's rights (if the request has shown substantial support for that, of course). I think, it is not quite right idea to give me adminship right now, regardless all supportive voices here.

Really, I have already thought about adminship here, but each time when I thought about it, I felt myself not ready and, that even more important, that it was really not needed/required to me (for my current work here). But now, taking in account such support from experienced users, seemingly I am ready to ask for admin's tools. However, I propose to leave it for the next year, when I will find some time and write the request. Anyway, I am not intending to be very much active in this December even in usual Wikisource work (which does not require adminship), and there is nothing to say about admin's work. So, let's wait, and in January-February of the next (2022) year I expect to write the request to ask for adminship. Thanks to everyone once again! --[[User:Nigmont|Nigmont]] ([[User talk:Nigmont|talk]]) 16:07, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

*He hasn't edited here since February, and may very well soon qualify for desysopping on that basis alone. The standards for a global sysop should indeed be higher when a person may be taking action in projects where no-one will see what they are doing. There is no evidence of misbehaviour on his part in this project, so when someone without any edit history here arrives for the sole purpose of taking punitive action against another individual I suspect a personal agenda.  I suggest no immediate action other than to keep a close watch on Innv's future edits, if any. In due course, desysopping for inactivity may very well be the appropriate and far less controverial way to go. [[User:Eclecticology|Eclecticology]] 01:02, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

:*I have no personal agenda. I too am a global sysop and an admin on various other projects. My request here is simply in the interest of the project. Innv has made it clear (diffs provided on the meta DRfA) that his gaining syop on a multitude of projects was a social experiment to see how many flags a banned sockpuppet can gain. As such, I felt it was in the best interest of this community to ask for Innv's sysop rights to be removed. Please, assume good faith.

:* After I have made a very extensive experience with one special user I strongly oppose the point of view that the misbehaviour of the user on other projects or elsewhere outside has no impact on his status in another project (because &quot;there is no evidence of misbehaviour on his part in this project&quot;). All WM projects are one social project with a special goal, and we should consider us to be a team. If somebody makes here experiments like that one which is discussed so it can destroy the trust to each other and the whole work here. A desysop for it is fully OK.

*'''Desyop''' as nom due to inactivity and lack of current need for an adminbot.  I'm nominating all of the long inactive accounts ''pro forma''.  In addition, this one was discussed at [[Wikisource:Scriptorium/Archives/Jan_2011_-_Dec_2011#Stale_bots_and_sysops]] last October.  ThomasBot has not edited on any wiki since last August and has not edited here in 17 months (no log actions in 14 months).  The primary reason for being a sysop appears to be related to deleting pages that had been exported to a subdomain - this is the only wiki on which ThomasBot is an adminbot.  This could easily be done by any competent bot handler when needed and ThomasBot isn't around to do it any way.  If ThomasV comes back with his bot, it's a simple click for any crat to give it the flag.  Additionally, although I expect ThomasV has high standards of security, I generally consider an inactive admin bot to be high risk.--[[User:Doug|Doug.]]&lt;sup&gt;([[User talk:Doug|talk]] &lt;small&gt;•&lt;/small&gt; [[Special:Contributions/Doug|contribs]])&lt;/sup&gt; 04:05, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

ThomasV announced his (hopefully temporary) retirement last year and his last edit on any wikimedia project was to confirm on this project that he asked [[User:Phe|Phe]] to take over for him as part of his vote of support for Phe's promotion to admin.  I would of course support his immediate reinstatement if he came back but I see little chance that he's going to just drop by and take an admin action or even be available if we thought we needed him.  He hasn't logged an action in over a year [http://toolserver.org/~vvv/adminstats.php?wiki=sourceswiki_p&amp;tlimit=31536000].--[[User:Doug|Doug.]]&lt;sup&gt;([[User talk:Doug|talk]] &lt;small&gt;•&lt;/small&gt; [[Special:Contributions/Doug|contribs]])&lt;/sup&gt; 10:46, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] On several wikis, an account named &quot;{{int:abusefilter-blocker}}&quot; has been created on December 17 to perform some technical maintenance on AbuseFilter. This account has sysop rights but it's a system user and no human can use it. The account already existed on wikis where AbuseFilter can perform blocks, which are issued using this account. See [[:phabricator:T212268|T212268]] for more information and future plans.

'''Problems'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] In [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter|AbuseFilter]], the &quot;{{int:abusefilter-action-throttle}}&quot; action takes three parameters: count, period and groups.

== Coming soon: Improved version of the [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|FileExporter]] ==

[[File:Logo for FileExporter.svg|thumb|Coming soon: an improved version of the beta feature [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|FileExporter]]]]
Hi! For a few months now, the [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|FileExporter]] has been a beta feature [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons#Deployment_plan|on this wiki (and a few others)]]. It makes it possible to move a file from a local wiki to Wikimedia Commons, while keeping its history intact.

A new version of the feature will be deployed on January 16, including [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons#Deployment_plan|some bug fixes and added features]]. With this new version, the FileExporter will also become a beta feature on all other wikis.

As always, you’re very invited to test it and [[mw:Help_talk:Extension:FileImporter|let us know what you think]]. This helps us further improve the feature before it becomes a default functionality. A big thanks to everyone who gave feedback so far! -- Best, [[User:Johanna Strodt (WMDE)|Johanna Strodt (WMDE)]] ([[User talk:Johanna Strodt (WMDE)|talk]]) 10:58, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

'''Recent changes'''
* You can now use [[:w:en:Google Translate|Google Translate]] in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation|content translation tool]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T90208][https://wikimediafoundation.org/2019/01/09/you-can-now-use-google-translate-to-translate-articles-on-wikipedia/]
* You can now add [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:File captions|captions]] to files on Commons. Captions are short descriptions of the file. They can be translated to all languages we use. They can't use wikitext markup.
* Earlier a [[:w:en:Attribute (computing)|quoted HTML attribute]] had to be followed by a space. Now it doesn't. This means that some pages could look different when you save them even if you didn't edit that part of the text. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Uqhg1it7nojfnjfg][https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/commit/59bb8864a23f3df120789c7619ef07acefa27b9c]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] Templates with  [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:TemplateStyles|&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;templatestyles&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;]] could not show the difference between the live template and the [[w:en:Sandbox (software development)|sandbox]] version when they were tested. This has now been fixed. &lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;templatestyles&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt; has a new &lt;code&gt;wrapper&lt;/code&gt; parameter now. You can use it for selectors like &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;.mw-parser-output &lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;wrapper parameter value&gt; &lt;selector from CSS page&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T200441]

'''Problems'''
* When you see an edit in the recent changes feed or in the history of a page some of them have [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Tags|tags]]. Some tags are added automatically. You can also add tags manually. Tags for edits that have been added manually can be edited. This didn't work for a little while. This has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T212703]

'''Changes later this week'''
*You can move files from your wiki to Wikimedia Commons and keep the file history with the new [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Move files to Commons|FileExporter]]. It will be a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Beta Features|beta feature]] on all wikis from 16 January. If you want to test it you [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|activate it]] and check [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Move files to Commons/Configuration file documentation|your wiki's configuration file]].
* Users who could cause more damage to the wikis if someone took over their account have to have more secure passwords. This includes administrators and other user groups. They can't use passwords that are in a list of common passwords. Accounts with common passwords are easy to take over. The list of common passwords was made longer a few weeks ago and has a different error message. Some user groups have been added to those who can't use common passwords. This is to protect all accounts with user rights that could cause damage. [https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/operations/mediawiki-config/+/481115/]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter|AbuseFilter]] variable &lt;code&gt;minor_edit&lt;/code&gt; has been removed. It was deprecated in 2016. Now you can't use it. You can fix the filters using it. You can find them if you use the search bar on [[Special:AbuseFilter|Special:AbuseFilter]].
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.33/wmf.13|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from January 15 &lt;section end=&quot;technews-2019-W03&quot;/&gt; 17:55, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

'''Tech News'''
* Some people did not get last week's issue of Tech News. This was because of a problem with [[m:Special:MyLanguage/MassMessage|MassMessage]]. If you did not get last week's issue, you can [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2019/03|read it on Meta]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T213942]

'''Recent changes'''
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation|content translation tool]] can now use  [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation/V2|version 2]] as the default version for users who turned on the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Beta Features|beta feature]]. For example it adds the tracking category &lt;code&gt;{{int:cx-unreviewed-translation-category}}&lt;/code&gt; to translations that might have used machine translations without fixing the problems. This is so others can find them. You can find this category in &lt;code&gt;Special:TrackingCategories&lt;/code&gt; on Wikipedias.
* [https://mediawiki2latex-large.wmflabs.org https://mediawiki2latex-large.wmflabs.org] can now convert collects of up to 800 pages to [[:w:en:PDF|PDF]], [[:w:en:EPUB|EPUB]] or [[:w:en:OpenDocument|ODT]]. Previously this was 200 pages.

'''Problems'''
* When a template was edited with the visual editor, it would sometimes put all information on one line. This makes it difficult to read for editors who use the wikitext editor. It also makes it more difficult to see what happened in a diff. This problem affected edits made between 8 and 17 January and is now fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T213922]
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/MassMessage|MassMessage]] is used to post a message to many pages. It has not been working reliably. Some messages have not been posted to everyone. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T213942][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T139380]
* Because of a database problem that had to be fixed immediately you could not edit most wikis for a couple of minutes on 17 January (UTC). This has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T213858]

'''Changes later this week'''
* You will be able to use [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:TemplateStyles|template styles]] in the &lt;code&gt;Module&lt;/code&gt; namespace. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T200914]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.33/wmf.14|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 22 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 23 January. It will be on all wikis from 24 January ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.33/Roadmap|calendar]]).

== Bible in Otjiherero ==

Hi all, a student of mine is looking for a place to make the Bible available in Otjiherero (language code: hz). From your experience, will such a language be created here, even if it is only one source text for now? Thanks, [[User:Pgallert|Pgallert]] ([[User talk:Pgallert|talk]]) 06:17, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
:{{Ping|Pgallert}} The more, the merrier but we host some languages that ''only'' have one work or which may not even be languages ([[Main Page/Chono]]). Please upload. —[[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; 06:37, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
::{{Ping|Koavf}} Thanks for the quick answer. So I go to meta, request Wikisource/hz, and then upload? Thanks again, with best regards, [[User:Pgallert|Pgallert]] ([[User talk:Pgallert|talk]]) 08:48, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
:::{{Ping|Pgallert}} The Bible is a pretty substantial work. If you succeed in bringing it online, the wiki will already have lots of contents. More important is to focus on getting enough contributors (at least three), for longer periods of time (longer than three months), and make sure interface localization is updated. --[[User:Ooswesthoesbes|Ooswesthoesbes]] ([[User talk:Ooswesthoesbes|talk]]) 10:03, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
:::{{Ping|Pgallert}} Actually, if you want to start a new language edition of most projects, you would go to [[incubator:]] and then set up a test run there to establish a community, make basic infrastructure, ensure that the interface is properly translated and is working, etc. For Wikisource, that is actually not the case: you just come here to the multi-lingual site and start adding content. We have a few ways of tracking our languages (create [[Main Page/languagename]], add it to {{tl|AllLanguages}} and [[Wikisource:Languages]], etc.) and then you are ready to go. ''If'' a certain language has a sufficient amount of works, it can graduate from here but it doesn't have to: [[Main Page/Napulitano|Napulitano]] is by far the biggest language on here now and has [[phab:T210752|recently been approved]] for its own domain but some languages (e.g. [[Main Page/Volapük|Volapük]]) have bodies of literature so small and a non-existent community who use them that they will never leave this site. —[[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; 17:02, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
:::: Hi [[User:Ooswesthoesbes|Ooswesthoesbes]] and [[User:Koavf|Koavf]], what I wanted to ask up here is if Wikisource would host the Otjiherero Bible ''even if there is no viable editing community'' just yet. Otjiherero incubator exists ([https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/hz/Main_Page here]) but my efforts to get it moving have not been successful so far. Now I have a student who would, for now as once-off activity, put something online that would be of interest to the native speakers. In my opinion, a Wikimedia project should host this, rather than a public or private web site elsewhere. I might be preaching to the choir, but without readers in that language we won't get editors. If you're interested in the longer story, [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T165585 this] is a longer discussion about new languages in general and Otjiherero in particular. --[[User:Pgallert|Pgallert]] ([[User talk:Pgallert|talk]]) 10:09, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
:::: PS: I read too quickly, assuming you want to offload me to the Incubator ;)  If the student is ready I'll go ahead and create [[Main Page/Otjiherero]] as suggested. Thanks for the info. --[[User:Pgallert|Pgallert]] ([[User talk:Pgallert|talk]]) 10:13, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
:::::{{Ping|Pgallert}} As I pointed out with Chono, even if the body of literature is ''only'' the Bible, that's fine to accept here: this would be an archive of all of the writing in that language. —[[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; 19:33, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
:{{Ping|Pgallert}} What is the copyright status of this translation? Is this own translation made by the student or by somebody else? Was it published? Please note, that texts uploaded here should be PS in US or licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0 license. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 10:30, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
::{{Ping|Ankry}} I haven't seen it yet; there are very likely a few translations, not just one. I'm hopeful we will find one from before 1924. Cheers, [[User:Pgallert|Pgallert]] ([[User talk:Pgallert|talk]]) 07:35, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

The Wikimedia Foundation is planning a [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019|global consultation about communication]]. The goal is to bring Wikimedians and wiki-minded people together to improve tools for communication.

We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis, whatever their experience, their skills or their devices.

We are looking for input from as many different parts of the Wikimedia community as possible. It will come from multiple projects, in multiple languages, and with multiple perspectives.

We are currently planning the consultation. We need your help.

'''We need volunteers to help talk to their communities or user groups.'''

You can help by hosting a discussion at your wiki. Here's what to do:  
# First, [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019/Participant group sign-up|sign up your group here.]]  
# Next, create a page (or a section on a Village pump, or an e-mail thread – whatever is natural for your group) to collect information from other people in your group.  This is not a vote or decision-making discussion: we are just collecting feedback.  
# Then ask people what they think about communication processes.  We want to hear stories and other information about how people communicate with each other on and off wiki.  Please consider asking these five questions:
## When you want to discuss a topic with your community, what tools work for you, and what problems block you?
## What about talk pages works for newcomers, and what blocks them?
## What do others struggle with in your community about talk pages?
## What do you wish you could do on talk pages, but can't due to the technical limitations?
## What are the important aspects of a &quot;wiki discussion&quot;?
# Finally, please go to [[mw:Talk:Talk pages consultation 2019|Talk pages consultation 2019 on Mediawiki.org]] and report what you learned from your group.  Please include links if the discussion is available to the public.

'''You can also help build the list of the many different ways people talk to each other.'''

Not all groups active on wikis or around wikis use the same way to discuss things: it can happen on wiki, on social networks, through external tools... Tell us [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019/Tools in use|how your group communicates]].

You can read more about [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019|the overall process]] on mediawiki.org. If you have questions or ideas, you can [[mw:Talk:Talk pages consultation 2019|leave feedback about the consultation process]] in the language you prefer.

Thank you! We're looking forward to talking with you.

You can [[phab:T217441|see the list of affected wikis]]. This is because of network maintenance. You can still read the wikis.
* Editors who use Firefox to edit with the visual editor had a problem with copying text. When they tried to select text that included footnotes, templates or block images in the middle they would often only get part of the text. This has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T214976]

== New gadget: Serif fonts ==

Hi all, I just created a new gadget called &quot;Serif fonts&quot;. It changes the font in the page namespace and the main namespace (well, everything inside &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;text&quot;&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; tags) to Serif fonts, including the font in the editing window in the page namespace. It uses the same fonts as the default in the headlines used in Vector. I have been using this setup privately for a long time, and think it both looks better for this project – after all, practically all books use serif fonts – and makes it easier to edit. Go [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets|try it out]]! [[User:Jon Harald Søby|Jon Harald Søby]] ([[User talk:Jon Harald Søby|talk]]) 12:36, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
:There are data on the preference (not just personal but readability/legibility) of serif and sans serif fonts for print and Web. We should probably change the site CSS to generate serif fonts for print. —[[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; 22:31, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

== Lao laws ==
A user has been dumping the full text of Laotian laws [[w:lo:Special:Contributions/Allbooks|into the Lao Wikipedia]], where such things do not belong. I'm not sure if they can legally be placed in any Wikimedia wiki. Does anyone here know (or would like to research) the legal status of Laotian laws (laws of Laos) and whether they can be hosted on a Wikimedia wiki? Note that we do not have a Lao Wikisource, either as a standalone &quot;lo.wikisource.org&quot; or as a subwiki here at the Multilingual Wikisource — although this wiki would seem to be the logical place for such texts if they can be properly licensed. Can anyone help with this? I have [[w:lo:User talk:Allbooks|told the user]] to stop creating the pages, but there's no guarantee they will understand and/or take my advice. - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 01:43, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
:{{Ping|Dcljr}} Lao laws are [[commons:Commons:Copyright_rules_by_territory/Laos#Not_protected|not protected by copyright]]. If this user is interested in putting them here, he is more than welcome. Do you need help? —[[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; 02:21, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
:: In that case, you should try to [[w:lo:User talk:Allbooks|contact the user directly]]. If they can put them on the wrong wiki, they should be able to put them on the right one. [grin] - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 03:06, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
::: {{ping|Koavf}} Have you tried contacting the user? I posted again [[w:lo:User talk:Allbooks|on their talk page]] saying that the pages could be created here, but they have not replied (nor [[luxo:Allbooks|edited any Wikimedia wikis]] in the meantime). I think this may be a one-off account that has been abandoned. Do you want to try to get these pages transwiki'd to here or would you (or someone else) like to find their original source and create new pages here based on the originals? (I have no idea how many pages we could be talking about, but the user in question only created 153 pages on the laowiki. Clearly there are more Laotian laws than that. [grin]) Or should we just delete the pages from lowiki and give up on this? - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 23:41, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
::::{{Ping|dcljr}} I just emailed him. I would be happy to transwiki--I don't like losing things that are valid if we can avoid it. I'll make a reminder to do this in two weeks if I haven't heard back from him. —[[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; 04:11, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
:::::{{Ping|Koavf}} unfortunately, import from lowikisource here is not enabled. So ''importer'' rights are needed for that. Did you ever use XML import between wikis and do you wish to apply for this right? Or I can ask for it. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 09:27, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
:::::Heh, forgotten that this is Wikipedia, so only XML import remains possible. We generally do not allow configuration changes to import from Wikipedias here. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 09:56, 13 April 2019 (UTC)

::::::::{{Ping|Ankry}} Not nice? —[[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; 18:40, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
:::::::::{{Ping|Koavf}} Import is better as we rather tend to preserve uploader contribution info. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 18:54, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
:: If the pages are going to be moved to here, however that happens, I figured it would be a good idea to try to verify the texts before that happens. A quick Google search turned up [http://www.vientianetimes.org.la/Lao_Eng_laws.htm a collection of PDFs] from the ''Vientiane Times'' (a Laotian newspaper) purporting (based on the filename in the URL) to be Lao laws in English — although some of the PDFs are actually in Lao. I found that their English text of the &quot;[http://www.vientianetimes.org.la/Laws%20in%20English/42.%20Law%20on%20Public%20Roads%20(1999)%20Eng.pdf Law on Public Roads]&quot; appears to match (within the margin of computer translation) to the Google Translate version of [[w:lo:ກົດໝາຍວ່າດ້ວຍທາງຫຼວງ 03-04-1999]], and the dates on the two documents (April 3, 1999) match exactly. Same with &quot;[http://www.vientianetimes.org.la/Laws%20in%20English/27.%20Law%20on%20National%20Defence%20Obligations%20(1995)%20Eng.pdf Law on National Defence obligations]&quot; and [[w:lo:ກົດໝາຍວ່າດ້ວຍພັນທະປ້ອງກັນຊາດ 08-03-1995]]. So I'd say these look legit. If someone here reads Lao, they can consider, for example, &quot;[http://www.vientianetimes.org.la/Laws%20in%20English/update%202008/Forestry%20Law%20%20version%2015%20%20date%2015%20Jan%202008.pdf Law on Forestry]&quot; vs. [[w:lo:ກົດໝາຍວ່າດ້ວຍປ່າໄມ້ 24-12-2007]] (both in Lao), which seem to be the same law. - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 02:59, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
:::Additionally, [[:w:lo:ໝວດ:User en]] has several users who may be able to help. —[[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; 18:24, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
: Note that the user being discussed here, User:Allbooks, [[w:lo:Special:Contributions/Allbooks|started editing the Lao Wikipedia again]] two days ago. They still have not responded my posts on [[w:lo:User talk:Allbooks|their talk page]] about the Lao laws. In fact, they have created (at least) four new pages of Lao laws on the wiki since returning. They've also created several articles on other topics, a small sampling of which appeared to be appropriate subjects for a Wikipedia (although, of course, I cannot vouch for the quality of the articles themselves). I'm not sure what to do at this point, so I have tried (just now) leaving [[w:lo:Special:Diff/76565|a Lao version of my last talk-page post]] for Allbooks (translated by Google Translate). I have also asked [[w:lo:User talk:Alifshinobi#Help needed communicating with a user|two]] other [[w:lo:User talk:Boonyatham#Help needed communicating with a user|users]] on that wiki who claim to be knowledgeable in both English and Lao to visit that talk page (and this discussion here) in the hopes that they can provide some kind of assistance. - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 00:30, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
::{{ping|dcljr}} I've just added a message in Lao, telling him/her to stop uploading these texts. I hope the message will be read. --[[User:Alifshinobi|Alifshinobi]] ([[User talk:Alifshinobi|talk]]) 00:56, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
::: Allbooks has now decided to throw a hissy fit on their talk page, apparently based on a misunderstanding of the Wikimedia landscape (i.e., that not all Lao text belongs in the Lao Wikipedia). I have just posted [[w:lo:User talk:Allbooks#Answer form Allbooks|another message on their talk page]] explaining the situation as clearly (but perhaps not as nicely) as I could. &lt;s&gt;Alifshinobi: could you please translate that message (or at least the main points of it) into Lao, just in case they need that?&lt;/s&gt; - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 05:33, 18 April 2019 (UTC) [''edit:'' struck out request to Alifshinobi since that's clearly not necessary anymore]
:::: OK, well, I tried, but Allbooks has [[w:lo:Special:Diff/76603|decided to be a petulant child]]. I'm washing my hands of the matter. - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 08:04, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
::::: I have reported this problem in [[m:SRM#Out of scope content in lo.wp|SRM]]. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 10:05, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
:The legal texts have been imported and are listed [[Main Page/ລາວ|here]]. {{Ping|Alifshinobi}} Could you, please, help us to make this page more informative (eg. by adding a header displaying the purpose of our project and maybe a section title for text list; like [[Main_Page/Gàidhlig|here]] - or in a way similar to another page in [[:Category:Main_Pages|this category]])? It is intended to be in Lao. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 05:31, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
:{{Ping|Ankry}}, &lt;s&gt;I tried adding a description and the purpose of Wikisource to [[Main Page/ລາວ]], but I received this message: &quot;Error: This action has been automatically identified as harmful, and therefore disallowed. If you believe your action was constructive, please inform an administrator of what you were trying to do. A brief description of the abuse rule which your action matched is: Antispam.&quot; Who should I talk to? &lt;/s&gt;--[[User:Alifshinobi|Alifshinobi]] ([[User talk:Alifshinobi|talk]]) 06:00, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
:: Sorry, it works now. I had to remove some of the text. --[[User:Alifshinobi|Alifshinobi]] ([[User talk:Alifshinobi|talk]]) 06:02, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
:::{{Ping|Alifshinobi}} Thanks a lot for this. —[[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; 06:14, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
:::{{Ping|Alifshinobi}} Thanks also. Our antispam filter seemed to be too restrictive; I fixed this. Also, it applies only to users with less than 2 edits, so you should no longer be affected by this filter. I noticed that you added some red links to a pages with namespace name that does exist neither here nor in lowiki. Was it intentional? [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 07:55, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
:::{{Ping|Ankry}}, Those links were created because I translated the text from the main page of the Thai Wikisource which had those links and pages. I was hoping that someone (or I) would add those pages later. If you don't think this is appropriate, I will delete the links as well as the last sentence which says something like &quot;please look at the [[Wikisource:What is Wikisource?]], [[Help:Contents]], and [[Wikisource:Community portal]] before writing an article.&quot; --[[User:Alifshinobi|Alifshinobi]] ([[User talk:Alifshinobi|talk]]) 15:01, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
::::{{Ping|Alifshinobi}} I just think that we should place the pages in appropriate namespaces (Wikisource, Help), possibly creating links from Lao-prefixed names in the main namespace. But while the links are red, it does not really matter. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 07:17, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

===Proposal===
To help kick start a solution, I propose that loWP ([[w:lo:]]) be added to mulWS transwiki import functionality. A community consensus will allow a phabricator ticket to be added

Technically speaking [https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=InitialiseSettings.php] we are requesting a modification within the section &lt;code&gt;wgImportSources&lt;/code&gt; to &lt;code&gt;'sourceswiki'&lt;/code&gt; to add &lt;code&gt;'w:lo'&lt;/code&gt;.

[[user:billinghurst|billinghurst]] ''&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:90%;&quot;&gt;[[user talk:billinghurst|sDrewth]]&lt;/span&gt;'' 04:19, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
:{{Ping|billinghurst}} I considered this alternative but comparing to XML import using import rights:
:#the procedure isn't faster (actually it is even slower: one week discussion and waiting for a configuration change to be applied: sometimes even more than a week)
:#it is not convenient for massive imports
:#the only advantage is that import can be done by any admin
:So potentially useful for future, not for mass-import. I {{support}} it in this context. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 06:06, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

::I mind not which way it happens, though you have better control if you are doing individually. XML has its own limitations in file size so it depends on how you wish to handle it. For example, if you wish to rename as you import, transwiki works better. Whatever best suits. [[user:billinghurst|billinghurst]] ''&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:90%;&quot;&gt;[[user talk:billinghurst|sDrewth]]&lt;/span&gt;'' 07:32, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
:::Personally, I think it is easier to control one multipage import than 100 separate operations (when a chance of making a mistake goes up). And lack of multipage transwiki import interface (or API) is the main problem for me. XML imports stops on first error and can be continued later from that place. There is no multi-revision large page to import that could be a problem here. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 10:22, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
*{{support}} Import from all Wikipedias, Wikibooks, and Wikiversity. Why not? The nice thing about this is that they are public domain, so attribution to a specific editor really does not matter. It's nice, I guess but it shouldn't take up any real bandwidth--just copy and paste. —[[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; 15:53, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

'''Recent changes'''
* More wikis are now testing visual editor section editing for mobile users. You can [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor on mobile/Section editing|read more]].
* Admins on French and Polish Wikipedia can [[m:Community health initiative/Partial blocks|block someone from editing a page or a namespace]]. If your wiki wants to get these blocks before they are available to all wikis, you can [[m:Talk:Community health initiative/Partial blocks|tell the developers]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T219327][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T219218]

'''Problems'''
* You will be able read but not edit most wikis for 30 minutes on  [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20190411T05 11 April at 05:00 (UTC)]. This is because of a hardware problem. You can [[phab:T220080|see a list of the affected wikis]]. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2019-April/091900.html]
* A map update caused some problems on 29 March and 30 March. It was rolled back. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T217087]
* Pages on some Wikivoyages had problems with the top headline. This has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T97891#5079408]

'''Changes later this week'''
* When you add an edit summary the VisualEditor will search your recent edit summaries in case you want to re-use one. This works in both the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide|visual]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2017 wikitext editor|wikitext]] modes on desktop. It also works [[mw:VisualEditor on mobile|on the mobile site]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T50274]
* The Wikimedia wikis will get a [[:w:en:URL shortening|URL shortener]]. This will work from 11 April. You can [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia URL Shortener|read more]]. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikidata/2019-April/012893.html]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{REVISIONID}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; magic word will no longer work. This is for performance reasons. When you preview a page it will return &lt;code&gt;&quot;&quot;&lt;/code&gt; (empty string). When you read a page it will return &lt;code&gt;&quot;-&quot;&lt;/code&gt; (dash). For now this will only affect content namespaces. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T137900]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.33/wmf.25|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 April. It will be on all wikis from 11 April ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.33/Roadmap|calendar]]).

'''Meetings'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20190410T15 10 April at 15:00 (UTC)]. See [[mw:Technical Advice IRC Meeting|how to join]].

'''Future changes'''
* You will be able to preview references. This means that when you hover over the link you will get a popup that shows you a preview of the reference. It will work much like [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Page Previews|page previews]]. This is so you don't have to go to the bottom of the page to see a reference. This will now be available as a beta feature on German and Arabic Wikipedia. [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WMDE_Technical_Wishes/ReferencePreviews][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T67114]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] The Wikidata [[:w:en:JSON|JSON]] output will change. Empty containers will be serialised as empty objects. This is a breaking change that will affect tools that use JSON outputs and APIs. It will happen on 30 April. You can [https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikidata/2019-April/012891.html read more and see how to test your code].

== import wikis ==

When a new Wikisource is created, there is no automatic creation of importing possibility from this wiki. I suggest adding '''all''' Wikisources to list of wikis that any admin can import pages '''from'''. This is a configuration change, so requires community approval. Missing wikis that would be added includes now:
* [[:as:]], [[:be:]], [[:br:]], [[:eo:]], [[:eu:]], [[:gu:]], [[:li:]], [[:mr:]], [[:or:]], [[:pa:]], [[:pms:]], [[:sah:]], [[:vec:]], [[:zh-min-nan:]]
* and also for two wikis that do not exist yet, bud should soon be created: hi.ws, nap.ws (after they are created, of course).
After the wikis are added, the import from the above wikis here can be done by any admin. Now it can be by importers only. The need to import from various wikis appears occasionally, and it is hard to predict where it may become urgent because of local copyright problems on another wiki. At the moment, there is a [[:eo:Vikifontaro:Diskutejo#Verkoj_sub_kopirajto|discussion]] about possible interwiki transfer from [[:eo:|Esperanto Wikisources]].

== Notification about request for rights ==

I intend to request for ''importer'' rights here due to some work needed:
# import from lo.wp [[Special:Permalink/691304#Lao_laws|discussed above]]
# possibly import of EU-copyrighted works from eo.ws ([[:eo:Vikifontaro:Diskutejo#Verkoj_sub_kopirajto|discussion]])
# possibly import of FR-copyrighted works deleted from fr.ws ([[:fr:Wikisource:Scriptorium/Juillet_2018#Status_of_PD-US_texts_in_frwikisource|discussion]])
# possibly import of works with unclear PL copyright status from pl.ws ([[:pl:Wikiźródła:Teksty podejrzane o naruszenie praw autorskich#Indeks:L. M. Montgomery - Ania z Avonlea.djvu|discussion]])
As this work needs some time, I intend to request for the rights for longer period, at least for few months, if granting permanent right is not possible. Or, maybe, somebody else wishes to do the job ({{Ping|Koavf|Ooswesthoesbes|Jusjih}})? Your opinions are welcome. Sometimes decissions concerning transfer here need to be urgent as works might be speedy deleted in other wikis as copyvio there (but still PD-US). [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 10:21, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
:While I have import access myself, I think it would be best for me not to intermingle too much with this, as my knowledge of international copyright is - well, I'll admit it - practically non-existant. So, a '''support''' from me :) --[[User:Ooswesthoesbes|Ooswesthoesbes]] ([[User talk:Ooswesthoesbes|talk]]) 11:43, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

== A proposal for WikiJournals to become a new sister project ==

Over the last few years, the [[wikiversity:WikiJournal_User_Group|WikiJournal User Group]] has been building and testing a set of peer reviewed academic journals on a mediawiki platform. The main types of articles are:

* Existing Wikipedia articles submitted for external review and feedback ([[doi:10.15347/wjs/2018.006|example]])
* From-scratch articles that, after review, are imported to Wikipedia ([[doi:10.15347/wjm/2018.001|example]])
* Original research articles that are not imported to Wikipedia ([[doi:10.15347/wjm/2017.006|example]])

'''Proposal: [[meta:WikiJournal|WikiJournals as a new sister project]]'''

From a Wikipedian point of view, this is a complementary system to Featured article review, but bridging the gap with [[wikiversity:WikiJournal_User_Group/Peer_reviewers|external experts]], implementing [[wikiversity:WikiJournal_User_Group/Ethics_statement|established scholarly practices]], and generating [[wikiversity:WikiJournal_User_Group/Publishing|citable, doi-linked publications]].

::{{Ping|Ankry}} In general, I wanted to avoid any of the sister projects being omitted from discussion if people have opinions or insight on the proposal.

* You can now write all special letters in all African Wikipedia languages. This works in the desktop version. [https://aharoni.wordpress.com/2019/05/25/happy-africa-day-keyboards-for-all-african-wikipedia-languages/]
* There is now a field called &lt;code&gt;[[:c:Commons:Depicts|depicts]]&lt;/code&gt; on Commons. This is a way to show what is in a picture with the help of Wikidata. It is still in development. [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump#Adding_qualifiers_to_Depicts]
* Some tools on Toolforge may break on or after 3 June because of database changes. Maintainers should update their tools to use the new schema. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T223406][https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/cloud-announce/2019-May/000172.html]

* Some wikis have one tab for the visual editor and one tab for a wikitext editor. Others wikis just have one tab.

== Update on Wiki Creation ==

I am sure that the communities working on [[Main Page/Napulitano|Neapolitan]] and [[Main Page/हिन्दी|Hindi]] Wikisources are anxious about when their already-approved projects will be moved to their own wikis.  Unfortunately, there still seems to be a problem with wiki creation; see [[:phab:T212881]]. If and when I get an update on this, I'll let you know. In the meantime, please continue to work here.

* When you create a PDF from a page on the wiki this is now done by [[mw:Proton|Proton]]. Before this we used [[mw:Electron|Electron]]. It should look the same but work better. Both use Chromium.

* The Flagged Revisions extension now uses the standard OOUI icons. There will be additional minor fixes for positioning in the next deployment. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T155878]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] Bots and other scripts that do not set an identifiable [[m:Special:MyLanguage/User-Agent policy|User-Agent]] may find their requests strictly rate-limited until they identify themselves properly. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T224891]

== Neapolitan Wikisource created ==

Hello all! Yesterday, the [[:nap:|Neapolitan Wikisource]] was finally created. [[User:Reedy|Reedy]] did it partly to test what is still wrong with the script to add new wikis (turns out: many things that took a lot of effort to fix, so it might take a little while for Hindi Wikisource to be created unfortunately). I have spent the day today here at the Wikimania Hackathon to export all the Neapolitan content from here and import it on the new wiki. This should be done now (assuming that all content is in fact in [[:Category:Napulitano]]). There are still a lot of general templates (such as [[Template:Ping|Ping]], [[Template:Rh|rh]], [[Template:Center|center]], [[Template:R|r]], etc) that are still missing. I will see if I can make a list of the missing ones to export those too. In the meantime: Neapolitan editors, you can start editing on your new wiki instead of here at the multilingual Wikisource. Congratulations! [[User:Jon Harald Søby|Jon Harald Søby]] ([[User talk:Jon Harald Søby|talk]]) 14:54, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
:{{ping|Ruthven|Alex brollo}} Please ping other editors as well! :-) [[User:Jon Harald Søby|Jon Harald Søby]] ([[User talk:Jon Harald Søby|talk]]) 14:57, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
::{{ping|Jon Harald Søby}} Thanks a lot! I'll ping there the other users. Jon, we can see each other here in Stockholm, and figure out together what are the next steps. Thanks again :) [[User:Ruthven|Ruthven]] ([[User talk:Ruthven|talk]]) 07:59, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
:::{{ping|Jon Harald Søby|Ruthven}} Thanks! Neapolitan texts teached me so much, I'll contribute for sure to the new project, even if I'm at a level 1 for neapolitan language... :-) --[[User:Alex brollo|Alex brollo]] ([[User talk:Alex brollo|talk]]) 09:05, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
:::: {{ping|Jon Harald Søby|Ruthven}} I usually wait to announce the opening of a wiki for public editing at [[m:Wikimedia News#August 2019|m:Wikimedia News]] until after it has been marked as &quot;imported&quot; at [[incubator:Incubator:Site creation log#2019|incubator:Incubator:Site creation log]]. Given the discussion above, though, I feel like I should go ahead and announce the opening of napwikisource now, even though the importing technically might not be finished (e.g., in the template and module namespaces). Any objections? - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 02:48, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
:::::I don't object but we ''may'' want to wait until nap.ws is added to [[d:]]. Otherwise, we should direct everyone there, delete the nap content here, and turn the main page into a link to nap.ws. —[[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; 03:49, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

Jon and other users are importing/creating pages and templates (this work is still in progress: as you noticed below, there's still stuff that needs to be imported, but mass importing seem to have some difficulties. Thus I would give more time to Jon to perform this task). When we've double checked that everything is in place in all the namespaces, it will be the right moment to remove everything from here and add redirects. I'm temporarily admin on nap.source, but any help is more than welcome! Cheers --[[User:Ruthven|Ruthven]] ([[User talk:Ruthven|talk]]) 08:47, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

Maybe you can coordinate with {{ping|OrbiliusMagister}} to see what's missing (he has a lot of experience on it.source, our &quot;brother&quot; project).

== Update on the consultation about office actions ==

Hello all, 

Last month, the Wikimedia Foundation's Trust &amp; Safety team [[:en:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)/Archive_152#Announcement_of_forthcoming_temporary_and_partial_ban_tool_consultation|announced]] a future consultation about partial and/or temporary [[m:Special:MyLanguage/office actions|office actions]]. We want to let you know that the '''draft version''' of this consultation has now been [[:m:Office_actions/Community_consultation_on_partial_and_temporary_office_actions/draft|posted on Meta]]. 

This is a '''draft'''. It is not intended to be the consultation itself, which will be posted on Meta likely in early September. Please do not treat this draft as a consultation. Instead, we ask your assistance in forming the final language for the consultation.

For that end, we would like your input over the next couple of weeks about what questions the consultation should ask about partial and temporary Foundation office action bans and how it should be formatted. '''[[:m:Talk:Office_actions/Community_consultation_on_partial_and_temporary_office_actions/draft|Please post it on the draft talk page]]'''. Our goal is to provide space for the community to discuss all the aspects of these office actions that need to be discussed, and we want to ensure with your feedback that the consultation is presented in the best way to encourage frank and constructive conversation.

Please visit [[:m:Office_actions/Community_consultation_on_partial_and_temporary_office_actions/draft|the consultation draft on Meta-wiki]] and leave your comments on the draft’s talk page about what the consultation should look like and what questions it should ask. 

Thank you for your input! -- The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety|Trust &amp; Safety team]] 08:03, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

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/2019/34|Translations]] are available.

'''Tech News'''
* There will be no Tech News issue next week. The next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 2 September 2019.

'''Problems'''
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] Some abuse filters stopped working because of a code change. Only variables for the current action will work. Variables defined inside a branch may not work outside of that branch. You can [[phab:T230256|read more]] to see how to fix the filters.
* Only six accounts can be created from one [[:w:en:IP address|IP address]] per day. Between 12 August and August 15 this was two accounts per day. This was because of a security issue. It is now six accounts per day again. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T230521]

'''Changes later this week'''
* Only a limited number of accounts can be created from one [[:w:en:IP address|IP address]]. An IP address can be [[:w:en:Whitelisting |whitelisted]] so that it can create as many accounts as needed. This is useful at events where many new persons learn to edit. IP addresses that are whitelisted for this reason will also not show [[w:en:CAPTCHA|CAPTCHAs]] when you create accounts. This will happen on Wednesday. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T227487]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] The [[mw:MediaWiki 1.34/wmf.19|new version]] of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 20 August. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 21 August. It will be on all wikis from 22 August ([[mw:MediaWiki 1.34/Roadmap|calendar]]).

'''Meetings'''
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|Recurrent item]] [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|15px|link=|Advanced item]] You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20190821T15 21 August at 15:00 (UTC)]. See [[mw:Technical Advice IRC Meeting|how to join]].

'''Future changes'''
* There is an [[:w:en: Request for Comments|RFC]] about creating a new global user group with the right to edit [[:mw:Extension:AbuseFilter|abuse filters]]. This will be used to fix broken filters and make sure all filters will still work when software changes happen. You can [[:m:Requests for comment/Creating abusefilter-manager global group|read more and comment]].
* &lt;code&gt;Special:Contributions/newbies&lt;/code&gt; will no longer be working. This is because of performance reasons. It showed edits by new accounts. You can see this in the recent changes feed instead. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T220447]

== New tools and IP masking ==

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; class=&quot;mw-content-ltr&quot;&gt;
Hey everyone,

The Wikimedia Foundation wants to work on two things that affect how we patrol changes and handle vandalism and harassment. We want to make the tools that are used to handle bad edits better. We also want to get better privacy for unregistered users so their IP addresses are no longer shown to everyone in the world. We would not hide IP addresses until we have better tools for patrolling.

We have an idea of what tools ''could'' be working better and how a more limited access to IP addresses would change things, but we need to hear from more wikis. You can read more about the project [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|on Meta]] and [[m:Talk:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|post comments and feedback]]. Now is when we need to hear from you to be able to give you better tools to handle vandalism, spam and harassment.

You can post in your language if you can't write in English.

== Importing nap files ==

It seems like uploaders of Neapolitan files (e.g. [[:File:Storia vecchia - Assassina - Pergolesi - Carlo Netti .djvu]]) have argued that we shouldn't port them to [[:s:nap:]]. First off, indexes won't work at our sister project without a local copy of the file or a version on [[c:]]. Secondly, we can't get around copyright law with magically changing &quot;mul.wikisource&quot; to &quot;nap.wikisource&quot;--that's not how copyright works and the servers are all in the United States anyway. Is there something I'm missing 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; 17:23, 25 August 2019 (UTC)

Or is this just a weird coincidence?

:::::: No, it '''should not''' be moved to Commons, as noted [[:File:Storia vecchia - Assassina - Pergolesi - Carlo Netti .djvu#License|in the License section of the file page]]. Files such as this should be left here (AFAIK). Note, BTW, that only some works are problematic. [[:File:'E campagnuole.djvu]], for example, is (was) OK to transfer. Looks like this will require checking every work individually. (So, obviously, do not delete anything here until that has been done.) - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 05:02, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
::::::: Actually, it looks like [[Wikisource:Subdomain coordination|different subdomains handle copyright differently]], so this is only a problem if napwikisource is a wiki that &quot;excludes pre-1924 works copyrighted at home&quot; (quoting from License section linked to in my last comment). - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 05:05, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

:::::::::Your instinct is a good one but Commons has a double public domain test where everything has to be public domain in the States (just like all WMF projects) ''and'' where it was originally created. It's just a rule that they have there. (With the caveat that works with explicitly free licenses are also allowed.) —[[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; 05:20, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
::::::::::{{Ping|Dcljr|Koavf}} Right: it's difficult to upload [[:File:Storia vecchia - Assassina - Pergolesi - Carlo Netti .djvu]] on Commons, and nap.source hasn't the hability to host files (nor a copyright policy, that ideally should be the same as oldsource). On the single cases:
::::::::::* Carlo Netti wrote his first works in the first decate of the 20th century, and disappears after 1928. A victim of the war? In any case, no files on Commons before 2030 (PD-old-assumed).
::::::::::* Edoardo Pignalosa (not born in 1817 as an online biography says), was active in 1898, still alive in 1959, and died &quot;at a very old age&quot;. Files can be uploaded on Commons in 2040 (PD-old-assumed).

The take-away here is that nap.ws needs local uploads. Copyright policy and law should be no different on mul.ws than nap.ws--that's just asinine. We should have importers and uploaders at nap.ws who have the ability to take files that Commons won't accept which are public domain in the States but not public domain in their countries of origin (considering Neapolitan, Italy). —[[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; 09:37, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
: Ah… I (think I) see that I misunderstood what you were saying in your initial post here. I thought you were ''acceding'' to the suggestion of the &quot;uploaders of Neapolitan files&quot; and ''choosing'' not to move the files to napwikisource. But now I see that you're saying the complete opposite: that those files ''belong'' at napwikisource because they ''cannot'' go to Commons (and the fact that they have not gone to napwikisource yet is because it's currently technically not possible to do so). I'm still not entirely sure what you meant by &quot;''we can't get around copyright law with magically changing 'mul.wikisource' to 'nap.wikisource'''&quot;… but whatever. So you're saying that someone needs to ask at Phabricator to give napwikisource the ability to accept local uploads so those files can be moved there? Doesn't that completely contradict the footnote in the &quot;Pre-{{#expr:{{CURRENTYEAR}}-95}} works still copyrighted in source country allowed&quot; header cell at [[Wikisource:Subdomain coordination]]? (&quot;''This column indicates whether such works are allowed on a Wikisource subdomain when considering [[foundation:Resolution:Licensing_policy|wmf:Resolution:Licensing_policy]] with respect to the laws of any countries where any project content is predominantly accessed. If not allowed, ws.org [[Template:PD-US-1923-abroad|hosts]] these works until transferring them to the subdomains when appropriate…''&quot;) Although nap: is not yet in that table, wouldn't it be a &quot;no&quot; when it's added because, as with cs: and de:, for example, the Italian law is life of author + 70 years? I'm confused. - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 11:17, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
::My point is that there is no reason for this distinction (plus it's breaking several works at nap.ws). First off, copyright restrictions somehow don't vanish when you go from one subdomain to another. Secondly, even tho I am certain that almost all Neapolitan works were composed in Italy, not all of them were. Why do we act like everything in Polish was written in Poland? This is a nonsense rule. —[[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; 16:17, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
:::Copyright restrictions aren't necessarily mandated by law. A subdomain can choose to have stricter rules for local uploads (or no local uploads at all) simply to reduce the workload on the community. [[User:Nemo_bis|Nemo]] 20:22, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
:::: OK, well, FYI: I'm bowing out of this discussion now (since this never really had anything to do with me in the first place). - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 11:58, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
:::::Copyright rules are partially established by a local community, which often takes into account the low of area where most project readers resides. Eg. de.ws works should be PD in Germany, Austria &amp; Switzerland; fr.ws works should be pd in the country of origin (like in Commons) (but this rule is not strict so some PD-US works are uploaded there and sometimes later deleted which (and it is not good IMO to have such a &quot;floating&quot; policy).
:::::However, noting, that a real community is needed to establish the policy. Esperanto Wikisource case shows that this is a problem sometimes. [[User:Ankry|Ankry]] ([[User talk:Ankry|talk]]) 07:29, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
::::::Well, this proves a real problem for things like having scan indexes which is a fundamental feature of Wikisource. If (e.g.) pl.ws exists, there should not be Polish texts here: that's the whole point of graduating to a subdomain. All that should be here is multilingual works, languages that are working to build a community, and languages that have too small a corpus to ever be a subdomain. This is a frustrating scenario and one we really should have comprehended ''before'' creating nap.ws. —[[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; 08:08, 6 September 2019 (UTC)

* The previously announced change of positions of the &quot;Wikidata item&quot; link on all wikis has been rollbacked due to unexpected cache issues. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T66315#5431632]
* The limit for rollbacks has been increased from 10 to 100 rollbacks per minute. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T228708] 
* The advanced version of the edit review pages (Recent Changes, Watchlist, and Related Changes) now include two new filters. These filters are for &quot;All contents&quot; and &quot;All discussions&quot;. They will filter the view to just those namespaces. However the &quot;All discussions&quot; filter does not include pseudo talk pages, like discussions that are in the ''Project:'' or ''Wikipedia:'' namespaces.

== Update on technical issues and other things interfering with getting the project approval and creation process moving again ==

Please read the update at [[:m:Talk:Language committee#Update on technical issues and other things interfering with getting the process moving again]]. [[User:StevenJ81|StevenJ81]] ([[User talk:StevenJ81|talk]]) 16:35, 4 September 2019 (UTC)

== Image format for Page: ==

{{tracked|T38597}}
On &lt;code&gt;Page:&lt;/code&gt; pages, why does the &lt;span style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;vectorTabs&quot; style=&quot;color:#0645AD&quot;&gt;Image&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt; tab link to images in the JPEG format? [[mw:Extension:PdfHandler]] (which is installed here) can render PDF and DjVu to either JPEG or PNG, where the latter usually has superior quality, and chooses the image format independently of MediaWiki configuration (&lt;code&gt;$wgPdfOutputExtension&lt;/code&gt;). That is, only interface change on Wikisource is required for transition from .jpg to .png link; moreover, ''both'' links can be shown there.

By the way several months ago &lt;span style=&quot;font-family:serif&quot;&gt;I&lt;/span&gt; developed [[m:User:Incnis_Mrsi/PDF-PNG.js|a script]] showing PDF and DjVu in PNG on wiki pages, although major Wikimedia sites such as en.Wikipedia and Commons were not interested. The same thing was requested in [[phab:T219863]] server-side, but no volunteer is willing to edit the extension. The script successfully shows &lt;img&gt; in PNG here on Page:s, although does not change &lt;a href=…&gt; for the Image tab.

== Coming soon: FileExporter becomes a default feature on this wiki, making imports to Wikimedia Commons easier ==

[[File:Exporting a file from Wikipedia with the FileExporter extension.png|right|300px]]
The [[mw:Help:Extension:FileImporter|FileExporter and FileImporter extensions]] make moving files from a local wiki to Wikimedia Commons easier. Together they allow to move files with all their original data intact, while documenting the move in the version history. The feature originates in a [[meta:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|top wish from the Technical Wishes survey]] on German Wikipedia.

The FileExporter has been a beta feature on first wikis, including this one, for a while now, and it’s available on all Wikimedia wikis since January 2019. Currently, [https://grafana.wikimedia.org/d/000000259/betafeatures?refresh=5m&amp;orgId=1 15,000 people on the Wikimedia projects have activated the feature], and more than [https://grafana.wikimedia.org/d/000000553/mediawiki-fileimporter?orgId=1&amp;from=1529884800000&amp;to=now 12,000 files were imported successfully] with this new tool. The first version from June 2018 was improved continuously, based on feedback by its beta testers. Thanks to everyone who gave feedback!

Now, the FileExporter will become a default feature [[meta:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons#Development_and_deployment|on the first few wikis]], including this one. This means that as an auto-confirmed user on these wikis, you'll see a link “Export to Wikimedia Commons” on local file pages. If you click on this link, the FileImporter then checks if the file can in fact be moved to Commons, and whether any replacements need to be made. These checks are performed based on the wiki’s configuration file which is defined by the local community.

The planned date for this deployment is September 24th, 2019. Deployment on more wikis is planned for later this year.
As always, feedback on this feature is very welcome [[mw:Help_talk:Extension:FileImporter|on this talk page]]. -- Best, [[User:Johanna Strodt (WMDE)|Johanna Strodt (WMDE)]] ([[User talk:Johanna Strodt (WMDE)|talk]]) 08:59, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

Hello, 

In a [[:en:Wikipedia:Community_response_to_the_Wikimedia_Foundation%27s_ban_of_Fram/Official_statements#Board_statement|recent statement]], the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees [[:en:Wikipedia:Community_response_to_the_Wikimedia_Foundation%27s_ban_of_Fram/Official_statements#Board_statement|requested that staff hold a consultation]] to &quot;re-evaluat[e] or add community input to the two new office action policy tools (temporary and partial Foundation bans)&quot;.

Accordingly, the Foundation's Trust &amp; Safety team invites all Wikimedians [[:m:Office actions/Community consultation on partial and temporary office actions/09 2019|to join this consultation and give their feedback]] from 30 September to 30 October. 

How can you help?

* Suggest how partial and temporary Foundation bans should be used, if they should (eg: On all projects, or only on a subset);

* Give ideas about how partial and temporary Foundation bans should ideally implemented, if they should be; and/or

* Propose changes to the existing Office Actions policy on partial and temporary bans.

We offer our thanks in advance for your contributions, and we hope to get as much input as possible from community members during this consultation!

== Feedback wanted on Desktop Improvements project ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
{{Int:Please-translate}}

{{int:Hello}}. The Readers Web team at the WMF will work on some [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements|improvements to the desktop interface]] over the next couple of years. The goal is to increase usability without removing any functionality. We have been inspired by changes made by volunteers, but that currently only exist as local gadgets and user scripts, prototypes, and volunteer-led skins. We would like to begin the process of bringing some of these changes into the default experience on all Wikimedia projects. 

We are currently in the research stage of this project and are looking for ideas for improvements, as well as feedback on our current ideas and mockups.  So far, we have performed interviews with community members at Wikimania. We have gathered lists of previous volunteer and WMF work in this area. We are examining possible technical approaches for such changes.  

We would like individual feedback on the following:

* Identifying focus areas for the project we have not yet discovered
* Expanding the list of existing gadgets and user scripts that are related to providing a better desktop experience. If you can think of some of these from your wiki, please let us know
* Feedback on the ideas and mockups we have collected so far

We would also like to gather a list of wikis that would be interested in being test wikis for this project - these wikis would be the first to receive the updates once we’re ready to start building. 

When giving feedback, please consider the following goals of the project:

* Make it easier for readers to focus on the content
* Provide easier access to everyday actions (e.g. search, language switching, editing)
* Put things in logical and useful places
* Increase consistency in the interface with other platforms - mobile web and the apps
* Eliminate clutter
* Plan for future growth

As well as the following constraints:

* Not touching the content - no work will be done in terms of styling templates or to the structure of page contents themselves
* Not removing any functionality - things might move around, but all navigational items and other functionality currently available by default will remain
* No drastic changes to the layout - we're taking an evolutionary approach to the changes and want the site to continue feeling familiar to readers and editors

Please give all feedback (in any language) at [[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements|mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements]] 

After this round of feedback, we plan on building a prototype of suggested changes based on the feedback we receive. You’ll hear from us again asking for feedback on this prototype.

== multilingual wikisource ==

hi, sorry to bother you,

there seem to have been quite a few changes in the last few days in the page editor of the multilingual wikisource

now when i try to transcribe a page, the picture of the page is not anymore side by side with the text box, but it lies below, which is not very convenient

is there any work in progress or is it going to stay that way? would it be possible to make it again the way it was before?

thanks!

== Wikipedia link from the main page of the Wikisource ==

Hi to all! Today I noticed a strange appearance on [[Main_Page|the main page of the Wikisource]]: on the left pane I see section &quot;In other projects&quot; having one link named &quot;Wikipedia&quot;, which links to en-Wikipedia article [[w:en:Oromo language]]. Could any experienced users (perhaps admins) investigate — why it is so displayed, and why the Oromo language is considered so distinguished that its article is presented on the main page of the Wikisource which contains also many other languages? --[[User:Nigmont|Nigmont]] ([[User talk:Nigmont|talk]]) 19:46, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
:That's interesting indeed. For some reason Wikidate sends me to [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q33864#sitelinks-sources] when I edit the interwiki's, but I can't find our main page there...

== Request for an interface admin to edit [[MediaWiki:OCR.js]] ==

Hi!

In order to workaround [[phab:T228594|OCR bug which annoys a lot of people]], can an interface administrator edit [[MediaWiki:OCR.js]] to use the fallback slower OCR, please? The secondary OCR system is already an automatic fallback when hOCR fails, but with the current bug, the script doesn’t see hOCR have failed, so it isn’t used.

The solution I propose is to force slower OCR using until someone fixes hOCR. You only have to comment the if condition in hocr_callback function, the return statement will prevent else block to execute.
Turn
&lt;syntaxhighlight lang=&quot;js&quot;&gt;
function hocr_callback(data) {
	if (data.error) {
		// Fallback to the slow way.
		disable_input(false);
		do_ocr();
		return;
	} else {
		// Checking if tb is disabled is required with chrome as ESC doesn't kill
		// the query.
		var tb = document.getElementById(&quot;wpTextbox1&quot;);
		if (tb.disabled) {
                        localStorage.ws_hOCR = data.text;

			var text = $(data.text).text();
			// Ugly as hell.
			text = text.replace(/[ ]*\n[ ]*/g, '\n')
				.replace(/\n\n\n\n/g, '@_@_@_@_@_@')
				.replace(/\n\n/g, '\n')
				.replace(/@_@_@_@_@_@/g, '\n\n')
				.replace(/\n\n\n/g, '\n\n');
			tb.value = $.trim(text);
		}
	}

	disable_input(false);
}
&lt;/syntaxhighlight&gt;
into
&lt;syntaxhighlight lang=&quot;js&quot;&gt;
function hocr_callback(data) {
//	if (data.error) {
		// Fallback to the slow way.
		disable_input(false);
		do_ocr();
		return;
//	} else {
		// Checking if tb is disabled is required with chrome as ESC doesn't kill
		// the query.
		var tb = document.getElementById(&quot;wpTextbox1&quot;);
		if (tb.disabled) {
                        localStorage.ws_hOCR = data.text;

			var text = $(data.text).text();
			// Ugly as hell.
			text = text.replace(/[ ]*\n[ ]*/g, '\n')
				.replace(/\n\n\n\n/g, '@_@_@_@_@_@')
				.replace(/\n\n/g, '\n')
				.replace(/@_@_@_@_@_@/g, '\n\n')
				.replace(/\n\n\n/g, '\n\n');
			tb.value = $.trim(text);

	disable_input(false);

* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor_on_mobile|mobile visual editor]] is now the default editor for users who never edited before, at a small group of wikis. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor_on_mobile/VE_mobile_default#A/B_test_results| Research ]] shows that users using this editor are slightly more successful publishing the edits they started, and slightly less successful publishing non-reverted edits. Users who defined the wikitext editor as their default on desktop will get the wikitext editor on mobile for their first edit on mobile as well. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T352127]

'''Problems'''
* Between 2 April and 8 April, on wikis using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:FlaggedRevs|Flagged Revisions]], the &quot;{{Int:tag-mw-reverted}}&quot; tag was not applied to undone edits. In addition, page moves, protections and imports were not autoreviewed. This problem is now fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T361918][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T361940]

[[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:

* 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.

* New changes have been made to the UploadWizard in Wikimedia Commons: the overall layout has been improved, by following new styling and spacing for the form and its fields; the headers and helper text for each of the fields was changed; the Caption field is now a required field, and there is an option for users to copy their caption into the media description.

* Several bugs related to the latest updates to the UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons have been fixed. For more information, see [[:phab:T365107|T365107]] and [[:phab:T365119|T365119]].
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] In March 2024 a new [[mw:ResourceLoader/Core_modules#addPortlet|addPortlet]] API was added to allow gadgets to create new portlets (menus) in the skin. In certain skins this can be used to create dropdowns. Gadget developers are invited to try it and [[phab:T361661|give feedback]].
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|alt=|Advanced item]] Some CSS in the Minerva skin has been removed to enable easier community configuration. Interface editors should check the rendering on mobile devices for aspects related to the classes: &lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;.collapsible&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;.multicol&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;.reflist&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;.coordinates&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;code&gt;.topicon&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/bdi&gt;.

* 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.

* [[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.

'''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.

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. There is more information in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Accessibility_for_reading/Updates#June_2024:_Typography_and_dark_mode_deployments,_new_global_preferences|the latest Web team update]]. [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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T288287][https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:How_to_make_a_MediaWiki_skin#Using_CSS_variables_for_supporting_different_themes_e.g._dark_mode]
* 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] 

'''Problems'''

* [[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]].

'''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.

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.

* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter|AbuseFilter]] editors and maintainers can now [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter/Actions#Show a CAPTCHA|make a CAPTCHA show if a filter matches an edit]]. This allows communities to quickly respond to spamming by automated bots. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T20110]
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Stewards|Stewards]] can now specify if global blocks should prevent account creation. Before [[phab:T17273|this change]] by the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product|Trust and Safety Product]] Team, all global blocks would prevent account creation. This will allow stewards to reduce the unintended side-effects of global blocks on IP addresses.

'''Feature news'''
* Editors who want to re-use references but with different details such as page numbers, will be able to do so by the end of 2024, using a new [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#Sub-referencing in a nutshell|sub-referencing]] feature. You can read more [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|about the project]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#Test|how to test the prototype]].
* Editors using tracking categories to identify which pages use specific extensions may notice that six of the categories have been renamed to make them more easily understood and consistent. These categories are automatically added to pages that use specialized MediaWiki extensions. The affected names are for: [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Translations?message=MediaWiki%3Aintersection-category&amp;namespace=8 DynamicPageList], [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Translations?message=MediaWiki%3Akartographer-tracking-category&amp;namespace=8 Kartographer], [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Translations?message=MediaWiki%3Aphonos-tracking-category&amp;namespace=8 Phonos], [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Translations?message=MediaWiki%3Arss-tracking-category&amp;namespace=8 RSS], [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Translations?message=MediaWiki%3Ascore-use-category&amp;namespace=8 Score], [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Translations?message=MediaWiki%3Awikihiero-usage-tracking-category&amp;namespace=8 WikiHiero]. Wikis that have created the category locally should rename their local creation to match. Thanks to Pppery for these improvements. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T347324]
* [[File:Octicons-tools.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Advanced item]] Technical volunteers who edit modules and want to get a list of the categories used on a page, can now do so using the &lt;code&gt;&lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;categories&lt;/bdi&gt;&lt;/code&gt; property of &lt;code&gt;&lt;bdi lang=&quot;zxx&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[[mediawikiwiki:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#Title objects|mw.title objects]]&lt;/bdi&gt;&lt;/code&gt;.

'''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]].

'''Project updates'''
* The application deadline for the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/Proposal|Product &amp; Technology Advisory Council]] (PTAC) has been extended to September 16. Members will help by providing advice to Foundation Product and Technology leadership on short and long term plans, on complex strategic problems, and help to get feedback from more contributors and technical communities. Selected members should expect to spend roughly 5 hours per month for the Council, during the one year pilot. Please consider applying, and spread the word to volunteers you think would make a positive contribution to the committee.

'''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.

* 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.

'''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.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* 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]

* [[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]].

'''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]].

'''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.

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.

* 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.

'''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. All modern operating systems and browsers are always able to reach Wikimedia projects. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/CTYEHVNSXUD3NFAAMG3BLZVTVQWJXJAH/]
* Starting December 16, Flow/Structured Discussions pages will be automatically archived and set to read-only at the following wikis: &lt;bdi&gt;arwiki&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi&gt;cawiki&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi&gt;frwiki&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi&gt;mediawikiwiki&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi&gt;orwiki&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi&gt;wawiki&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi&gt;wawiktionary&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi&gt;wikidatawiki&lt;/bdi&gt;{{int:comma-separator/en}}&lt;bdi&gt;zhwiki&lt;/bdi&gt;. This is done as part of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Structured_Discussions/Deprecation|StructuredDiscussions deprecation work]]. If you need any assistance to archive your page in advance, please contact [[m:User:Trizek (WMF)|Trizek (WMF)]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T380910]
* This month the Chart extension was deployed to production and is now available on Commons and Testwiki. With the security review complete, pilot wiki deployment is expected to start in the first week of December. You can see a working version [[testwiki:Charts|on Testwiki]] and read [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart/Project/Updates|the November project update]] for more details.
* 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, a bug with the &quot;Download as PDF&quot; system was fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T376438]

'''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. Join the discussions on the [[mw:Talk:Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|project talk page]] or in the [[discord:channels/221049808784326656/1227616742340034722|dedicated thread]] on the [[w:Wikipedia:Discord|Wikimedia Community Discord server (in English)]] for support and to share feedback.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* 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].

* 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]

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'''

'''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.

* 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 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.

'''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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T302140]
* [[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]]. For example, the Visual Editor's &quot;Insert link&quot; feature did not always suggest existing pages properly when an editor started typing, which has now been [[phab:T383497|fixed]].

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* The Structured Discussion extension (also known as Flow) is being progressively removed from the wikis. 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|The last group of wikis]] ({{int:project-localized-name-cawikiquote/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-fiwikimedia/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-gomwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-kabwiki/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-ptwikibooks/en}}{{int:comma-separator/en}}{{int:project-localized-name-sewikimedia/en}}) will soon be contacted. If you have questions about this process, please ping [[m:User:Trizek (WMF)|Trizek (WMF)]] at your wiki. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T380912]
* The latest quarterly [[mw:Technical_Community_Newsletter/2025/January|Technical Community Newsletter]] is now available. This edition includes: updates about services from the Data Platform Engineering teams, information about Codex from the Design System team, and more.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* Patrollers and admins - what information or context about edits or users could help you to make patroller or admin decisions more quickly or easily? The Wikimedia Foundation wants to hear from you to help guide its upcoming annual plan. Please consider sharing your thoughts on this and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Annual Plan/2025-2026/Product &amp; Technology OKRs|13 other questions]] to shape the technical direction for next year.

'''Updates for editors'''
* 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. The MediaWiki Platform team is temporarily disabling adding new WebAuthn keys, to avoid interfering with the rollout of [[mw:MediaWiki Platform Team/SUL3|SUL3]] (single user login version 3). Existing keys are unaffected. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T378402]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''

* For developers that use the [[wikitech:Data Platform/Data Lake/Edits/MediaWiki history dumps|MediaWiki History dumps]]: The Data Platform Engineering team has added a couple of new fields to these dumps, to support the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|Temporary Accounts]] initiative. If you maintain software that reads those dumps, please review your code and the updated documentation, since the order of the fields in the row will change. 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]

* 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;).

[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.

'''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.

'''Updates for editors'''
* 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]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.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, a bug was fixed that prevented clicking on search results in the web-interface for some Firefox for Android phone configurations. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T381289]

'''Meetings and events'''
* The next Language Community Meeting is happening soon, February 28th at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1740751200 14:00 UTC]. This week's meeting will cover: highlights and technical updates on keyboard and tools for the Sámi languages, Translatewiki.net contributions from the Bahasa Lampung community in Indonesia, and technical Q&amp;A. If you'd like to join, simply [[mw:Wikimedia Language and Product Localization/Community meetings#28 February 2025|sign up on the wiki page]].

'''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.
* Since last week there has been a bug that shows some interface icons as black squares until the page has fully loaded. It will be fixed this week. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T387351]
* One new wiki has been created: a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikipedia/en}} in [[d:Q2044560|Sylheti]] ([[w:syl:|&lt;code&gt;w:syl:&lt;/code&gt;]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T386441]

'''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.

'''In depth'''
* 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]

For example, the Wikipedia App for Android had a bug fixed for when a user is browsing and searching in multiple languages. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T379777]

'''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.

* The Wikimedia Foundation is seeking your feedback on the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Annual Plan/2025-2026/Product &amp; Technology OKRs|drafts of the objectives and key results that will shape the Foundation's Product and Technology priorities]] for the next fiscal year (starting in July). The objectives are broad high-level areas, and the key-results are measurable ways to track the success of their objectives. 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.

* 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. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Images#Thumbnail_sizes][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T355914]

'''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;.

* [[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.

'''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.

* 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.

* 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.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia URL Shortener|&quot;Get shortened URL&quot;]] link on the sidebar now includes a [[phab:T393309|QR code]]. Wikimedia site users can now use it by scanning or downloading it to quickly share and access shared content from Wikimedia sites, conveniently.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Wikimedia Foundation is 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 to help more efficiently build tools which help readers, and make it easier for readers to find what they are looking for. Tech News has [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2025/16|previously written about this]]. The deployment will be gradual. Some might see the Edge Uniques cookie the week of 19 May. You can discuss this on the [[m:Talk:Edge Uniques|talk page]].
* Starting May 19, 2025, Event organisers in wikis with the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents extension]] enabled can use [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event Center/Registration|Event Registration]] in the project namespace (e.g., Wikipedia namespace, Wikidata namespace). With this change, communities don't need admins to use the feature. However, wikis that don't want this change can remove and add the permitted namespaces at [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/CampaignEvents]].
* The Wikipedia project now has a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikipedia/en}} in [[d:Q36720|Nupe]] ([[w:nup:|&lt;code&gt;w:nup:&lt;/code&gt;]]). This is a language primarily spoken in the North Central region of Nigeria. Speakers of this language are invited to contribute to [[w:nup:Tatacin feregi|new Wikipedia]].

'''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.

'''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.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Translation Suggestions feature in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Content translation|Content Translation tool]] now has another level of article filters added to the &quot;[https://en.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=fi#/ ... More]&quot; category. Translators who use the Suggestions feature can now select and receive article suggestions that are customized to geographical locations of their interest using the new &quot;{{int:Cx-sx-suggestions-filters-tab-regions}}&quot; filter. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T113257]
* Administrators can now limit &quot;Add a Link&quot; to newcomers. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Tools/Add a link|&quot;Add a Link&quot;]] Structured Task [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Constructive activation experimentation#Enwiki A/B test &amp; &quot;Add a Link&quot; Improvements (Wiki Experiences 1.2.11 &amp; 1.2.16)|helps new account holders start editing]], but some communities have requested the ability to restrict it to its intended audience: newcomers. Administrators can configure this setting within the [[Special:CommunityConfiguration/GrowthSuggestedEdits|Community Configuration]] feature.

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* For AbuseFilter editors on [[phab:T392144|some wikis]], it is now possible to filter edits based on the RevertRisk score of the edit being attempted. It is only populated if the action being evaluated is an edit. For more information, please see the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:ORES/AbuseFilter variables#What variables are available for use|ORES/AbuseFilter variables]] documentation.
* The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Beta Cluster|Beta Cluster]] wikis have [[listarchive:list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/YDABPV75LADRQCXMJAFWUP256N4EQ25B/|been moved]] from &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;beta.wmflabs.org&lt;/code&gt; to &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;beta.wmcloud.org&lt;/code&gt;. Users may need to update URLs in any tools, or in their password managers. Any related issues can be [[phab:T289318|reported in the task]].
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.45/wmf.11|MediaWiki]]

'''Meetings and events'''
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WikiCite 2025|WikiCite 2025]] will take place from 29–31 August, both online and in-person in Bern, Switzerland. The event's goals are to reconnect communities, institutions, and individuals working with open citations, bibliographic data, and the Wikidata/Wikibase ecosystem. Registration is open and the call for proposals will be announced soon. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikidata@lists.wikimedia.org/message/KQZUG3ETKLBWPBYSB2YAWZIRPWHS24TG/]

'''Weekly highlight'''
* The Community Tech team will be focusing on wishes related to Watchlists and Recent Changes pages, over the next few months. They are looking for feedback. Please [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist/Updates#July 24, 2025: Watchlists and Recent Changes pages|read the latest update]], and if you have ideas, please [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist|submit a wish]] on the topic.

'''Updates for editors'''
* The Wikimedia Commons community has decided to block [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Upload dialog|cross-wiki uploads]] to Wikimedia Commons, for all users without autoconfirmed rights on that wiki, starting on August 16. This is because of [[:c:Commons:Cross-wiki media upload tool/History|widespread problems]] related to files that are uploaded by newcomers. Users who are affected by this will get an error message with a link to the less restrictive UploadWizard on Commons. Please help translating the [[:c:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki:Abusefilter-disallowed-cross-wiki-upload|message]] or give feedback on the message text. Please also update your local help pages to explain this restriction. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T370598]
* On wikis with temporary accounts enabled and Meta-Wiki, administrators may now set up a footer for the Special:Contributions pages of temporary accounts, similar to those which can be shown on IP and user-account pages. They may do it by creating the page named &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;MediaWiki:Sp-contributions-footer-temp&lt;/code&gt;. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T398347]

'''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]

'''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/]
* [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.45/wmf.13|MediaWiki]]

'''Meetings and events'''

'''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]

'''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.

* 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.

* Two fields of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Recentchanges table|recentchanges database table]] are being removed. &lt;code&gt;rc_new&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;rc_type&lt;/code&gt; are being removed in favor of &lt;code&gt;rc_source&lt;/code&gt;. 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.

* 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. [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CampaignEvents/Deployment_status#How_to_Request_the_CampaignEvents_Extension_for_your_wiki]
* The lists in the footer of the editing interface, such as &quot;Templates used on this page,&quot; will now be organized into columns when there is enough space. This enhancement minimizes scrolling when editing lengthy articles on Wikipedia. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401066]
* On September 3rd, 2025 we will increase the sampling percentages of our [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Moderator Tools/Watchlist/Experiment#Scope of the experiment|group by toggle experiment]] of the &lt;code&gt;Special:RecentChanges&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;Special:Watchlist&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code&gt;Special:RelatedChanges&lt;/code&gt; pages on the Chinese, French, and Portuguese Wikipedias to 100 percent, allowing more editors to be part of this experiment. This adjustment is intended to ensure we have sufficient data to make informed decisions when evaluating the experiment results. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T402958][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T396789]
* 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.

'''In depth'''
* 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.

* 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.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401286][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T400698]

* 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.

'''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.

* 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.

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/2025/40|Translations]] are available.

'''Weekly highlight'''
* 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]

For example, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Anti-abuse signals/User Info|User Info Card]] now displays currently active global lock/blocks. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401128]

'''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]
* An edit link will now appear inside the categories box on article pages for logged in users, which will directly launch the VisualEditor category dialog. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T291691]

'''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. If any issues are observed, please file a Phabricator ticket to the [[phab:tag/serviceops/|Service Ops team board]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T400130]

'''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. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Email_confirmation][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T58074]

If any issues are observed, please file a phabricator ticket to the [[phab:tag/serviceops/|Service Ops team board]].
* Edits to Wikidata references or qualifiers will now be shown in RecentChanges and Watchlist entries on other wikis less often, reducing unnecessary notifications.

'''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.

'''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.

* 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.

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/2025/45|Translations]] are available.

'''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. If this feature is important to you, please support the wish! [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T41510]
* [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.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]]. For example, the fixing of the persisting highlighting when using VisualEditor find and replace during a query. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T407318]
'''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]
* On Thursday, October 30, the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki Interfaces Team|MediaWiki Interfaces]] and [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Site Reliability Engineering|SRE Service Operations]] teams began rerouting Action API traffic through a common 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. If any issues are observed, please file a Phabricator ticket to the [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/serviceops/ Service Ops team] board.
* MediaWiki Train deployments will pause for the final two weeks of 2025: 22 December and 29 December. Backport windows will also pause between Monday, 22 December 2025 and Thursday, 2 January 2026. A backport window is a scheduled time to add things like bug fixes and configuration changes. There are seven deployment trains remaining for 2025.

'''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.

'''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?

'''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.

'''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.

* 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]].

&lt;section begin=&quot;technews-2025-W50&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/2025/50|Translations]] are available.

'''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]
* Developers are encouraged to take the [https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/552643 2025 Developer Satisfaction Survey], which remains open until 5 January 2026. If you build software for the Wikimedia ecosystem and would like to share your experiences or feedback, your participation is greatly appreciated. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/W4WBKO6Q55UWWCCSFWQATKEXBEHP3QNR/]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* To improve database and site performance, external links to Wikimedia projects will no longer be stored in the database. This means they will not be searchable in [[{{#special:LinkSearch}}]], will not be checked by the Spam Blacklist or AbuseFilter as new links, and will not be in the &lt;code dir=ltr&gt;externallinks&lt;/code&gt; table on database replicas. In the future this may be extended to other highly-linked trusted websites on a per-wiki basis, such as Creative Commons links on Wikimedia Commons. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T405005]

'''Updates for editors'''
* From January, edit filters [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter/Access flags|can be set]] to automatically suppress their details such as rules and list of attempted edits and actions. This will help oversighters use edit filters to prevent doxxing or other suppressible material. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T290324]

'''Updates for technical contributors'''
* 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.

* [[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.

'''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]].

* 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.

* 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.

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.

'''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.

* 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.

* 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/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.

'''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.

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.

'''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.

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/2026/15|Translations]] are available.

'''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.
* [[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]

== Easy LST ==
Hello,
I'm sorry, but you broke the labelled section transclusion mechanism in fr.wikisource (and maybe in other Wikisources) by [https://wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Base.js&amp;diff=prev&amp;oldid=1218680 removing the code] from base.js. What this modification really necessary? Thanks. 

Note that turning off Easy LST is easy: you simply need to set &lt;code&gt;self.proofreadpage_raw_lst = true&lt;/code&gt;. It's not necessary to move the code to a separated gadget to do that. [[User:Seudo|Seudo]] ([[User talk:Seudo|talk]]) 13:15, 18 September 2025 (UTC)

:{{ping|Seudo}} Hello! I temporarily undid the change, sorry for the inconvenience. I am of the opinion that we should not clump together different functionalities which one may want to turn off in their gadgets sections into one big file, it's bad design. The English Wikisource already has EasyLST as a separated gadget, on by default. My suggestion would for French Wikisource to transclude EasyLST separately as a gadget. [[User:Catonif|Catonif]] ([[User talk:Catonif|talk]]) 14:24, 18 September 2025 (UTC)
::Thanks! Actually I didn't know that the French Wikisource relied so much on Javascript files here before today. I agree with you, we should probably do like the English Wikisource. [[User:Seudo|Seudo]] ([[User talk:Seudo|talk]]) 15:05, 18 September 2025 (UTC)

== Interface administrator ==
Your right will expire on 17 March 2026. Please reapply at [[Wikisource:Administrators#Requests for other rights]] for any renewal.--[[User:TunnelESON|TunnelESON]] ([[User talk:TunnelESON|talk]]) 05:55, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

:{{ping|TunnelESON}} Hi! :) Is this message automated or do you actually think I should? [[User:Catonif|Catonif]] ([[User talk:Catonif|talk]]) 18:55, 3 March 2026 (UTC)
::This is a manual reminder. To renew, please reapply. Or your access just expires.--[[User:TunnelESON|TunnelESON]] ([[User talk:TunnelESON|talk]]) 18:48, 6 March 2026 (UTC)

Гыйлемлек нурани җәүһәр

Чыгар җисмең къөбурендә.

Гыйлем сахибе һичбер дә
Черемәс — үлсә дә — гүрдә,
Тереклекдә җире — түрдә,
Булыр мәҗлес хозурында.

Һәуа сахибе зурланыр,
Кәсеб итәргә хурланыр,
Зәмимә берлә болганыр,
Булыр нәфесе зурында.

* Җисмең къөбурендә — тәнең каберендә.
* Сахиб — хуҗа, ия.

I SHALL treat in this essay of the different parts of speech,
to wit: * Noun, Pronoun, Verb, Adverb, Preposition, Conjunction, and Interjection.

{{c|{{larger|'''1.—Of Nouns.'''}}}}

Nouns are of two kinds, substantive and adjective.

{{c|''Of the Noun Substantive.''}}

The Indians have no declensions, properly so called; that is to say, the
nouns are not declined by inflections, as in the Latin and Greek, except
in two cases, the vocative and the local. In the others the place of these
terminations is supplied by the relative position of the noun, or by grammatical forms or combinations of the verbs and other parts of speech, as
will be shewn in the following examples. These grammatical forms or
combinations are peculiar to the Indian languages, and I believe are not
to be found in any others. They will be more fully explained under their
proper heads. At present I shall only shew in what manner what are
commonly called the cases of nouns are expressed or indicated.

{{c|''Nominative.''}}

This case (if it may be so called) has no particular form or inflection.
It is simply the name of the substantive, as in English.

{{x-smaller|Note by the Translator.—The Author does not speak of the article; yet there is one in the
Delaware language, the article mo, which is used either in a definite or indefinite sense, as
''m'hittuck,'' ''a'' tree or ''the'' tree. The Minsi say ''michtuk.'' This article was discovered by the Translator in the Massachusetts language, and on inquiring of Mr Heckewelder, he said that the same
article was also in the Delaware, but was not frequently used, because the word was sufficiently
understood without it. See his letter to the Translator in the notes to Eliot's Grammar, 11th Massachusetts' Historical Collections, Second Series, p. xv.}}&lt;noinclude&gt;&lt;/noinclude&gt;</text>

{{c|[OF NOUNS.]}}&lt;/noinclude&gt;{{c|''Genitive.''}}

The genitive is expressed by placing the noun employed in that sense
immediately before that which is used in the nominative. Sometimes
also by prefixing to the nominative the inseparable pronoun of the third
person ''w,'' as we say in English John his book for John's book.

coupled with the pronoun ''our.''

{{c|''The Local case‡.''}}

This as well as the preceding may be properly so called. It is formed
by means of the suffixes ''ink'' and ''unk,'' and expresses ''in, in the, on, out of.''

angel, to die. W is the inseparable pronoun Ais, and t is interposed for euphony's sake.}}

Бу &quot;Исемдә калганнар&quot;ны язуыма башлача сәбәп берничә наширләрнең минән тәрҗемәи халемне язып бирергә үтенүләре булды.

Мин аларга туганымнан алып хәзергә яшемә кадәрле тәрҗемәи халемне кыска гына рәвештә язып бирү нияте илә кулыма каләм алган идем, әллә ничек сүз озынга китте.

Минем гомерем (укучылар күрәләр) шактый ямьсез, шактый караңгы, шуның белән бергә кызык кына үткән булганга, яза башлагач, исемдә калганнарның һәммәсен язасым килде.

Шунлыктан Уральскигә килеп җиткәнемә кадәр кичердекем хәлләр илә аннан соң хәзер шушы сәтырларны&lt;ref&gt;Сәтыр — юл.&lt;/ref&gt; язып утырган вакытым кадәрге башыма килгәннәрне икесен ике рисалә&lt;ref&gt;Рисалә — китапчык.&lt;/ref&gt; итеп чыгарырга мәгъкуль күрелде.

Минем атам Мөхәммәтгариф&lt;ref&gt;Мөхәммәтгалим исемле мулланың угылы — 1842/1843–1886 елларда яшәгән.&lt;/ref&gt;, Кушлавыч&lt;ref&gt;Кушлавыч карьясе — хәзер Татарстан Республикасының Арча районындагы авыл.&lt;/ref&gt; карьясендә&lt;ref&gt;Карья — авыл.&lt;/ref&gt; Мөхәммәтгалим исемле мулланың угылы булып, 14-15 яшьләрендә Кышкар мәдрәсәсенә&lt;ref&gt;Кышкар мәдрәсәсе — хәзерге Арча районындагы Кышкар авылында борынгыдан мәдрәсә эшләп килгән.&lt;/ref&gt; китеп, анда хәтме көтеб кыйлырга&lt;ref&gt;Хәтме көтеб кыйлырга — укып тәмам итәргә.&lt;/ref&gt; гадәттә ничә сәнә кирәк булган, булса, шулкадәр торып, карт атасы тере вакыттук авылымыз Кушлавычка кайтып, мулла булмыштыр.

Мулла булгач та өйләндеке бер җәмәгате илә берничә генә еллар торгач, җәмәгате вафат булып, бер ир вә бер кыз баласы калмыштыр.

Моннан соңра атам, икенче мәртәбә өйләнүе уларак, Өчиле карьясе&lt;ref&gt;Өчиле карьясе — Арча районында.&lt;/ref&gt; Зиннәтулла хәзрәтнең&lt;ref&gt;Зиннәтулла хәзрәт — Тукай әнисенең әтисе Зиннәтулла Зәйнелбәшир улы, 1829–1909 елларда яшәгән.&lt;/ref&gt; Мәмдүдә&lt;ref&gt;Мәмдүдә — Тукайның әнисе Бибимәмдүдә Зиннәтулла кызы, 1865–1890 елларда яшәгән.&lt;/ref&gt; исемле кызына (минем анамны) алмыштыр.

Анам илә бер ел ярым кадәр торгач, беренче бала уларак, мин дөньяга килгәнмен.

Минем туганыма 5 ай заман үткәч, атам аз гына вакыт авырып, тәрке дөнья итмештер&lt;ref&gt;Тәрке дөнья итмештер — дөнья куйган, үлгән.&lt;/ref&gt;. 

Тол калган анам янында мин берничә вакыт торгач, анам мине авылымыздагы Шәрифә исемле бер фәкыйрә карчыкка вакытча асрарга биреп калдырып, үзе Сасна&lt;ref&gt;Сасна нам карья — Балтач районындагы Сасна пучинкәсе (авыл).&lt;/ref&gt; нам&lt;ref&gt;Нам — исемле.&lt;/ref&gt; карьянең имамына кияүгә чыкмыштыр.

Бу вакыт атамның ата-анасы (бабай вә әби) күптән вафат булып, авылда башка туганнарым булмаганлыктан, мин бу карчык ханәсендә кадерсез, артык бер бала булганлыктан, ул мине, әлбәттә, тәрбияләмәгән; тәрбияләү түгел, яшь балаларның иң мохтаҗ булдыклары ачык йөзне дә күрсәтмәгән.

Мин үзем ул карчыкта үткән заманның ничеклеген белмим. Ул вакыт мин ике-ике ярым яшемдә генә булганмын дип уйлыйм.

Хәзер авылда минем вакъты сабавәтемне&lt;ref&gt;Вакъты сабавәтемне — &lt;/ref&gt; күргән карчык вә хатыннар мөрәббия&lt;ref&gt;Мөрәббия — тәрбияче (хатын-кыз).&lt;/ref&gt; карчыгымның минем илә бик начар мөгамәләдә булганлыгын үземә хикәят итәләр.

Җөмләдән берсе.

Мин кыш көннәрендә төнлә яланаяк, күлмәкчән көенчә тышка чыгам икән дә, бераздан өйгә кермәкче булып, ишеккә киләм икән. Кыш көне авыл ызбаларының ишекләрен ачмак балага түгел, шактый үсмер кешеләргә дә мәшәкать вә көч булганлыктан, табигый, мин ишекне ача алмыйм вә ишек төбендә аякларым бозга ябышып катканча көтеп торам икән.

Карчык исә үзенең «Кадалмас әле килмешәк!» дигән «шәфкатьле» фикере илә мине үзе теләгән вакытта орыша-орыша кертә икән.
Ул карчык үлгән инде; Аллаһы аңар рәхмәт итсен.

Мин бу карчыкта торган мөддәттә&lt;ref&gt;Мөддәттә — вакыт эчендә.&lt;/ref&gt; анам да теге муллага үзләшеп йиткән булырга кирәк: ул бервакыт мине үзе янына Саснага алдырырга атлар йибәрткән.

Мине бу атлар, әлбәттә, Саснага алып киткәннәр.

Хәер, алып киткәннәр генә түгел, шул атка утырып киткән дәкыйкаләрдә&lt;ref&gt;Дәкыйка — минут.&lt;/ref&gt; миндә, бала булсам да, бер нәүгы шөгур хасил булганмы&lt;ref&gt;Бер нәүгы шөгур хасил булганмы — бер төрле сизенү, аң ачылып китү барлыкка килгәнме&lt;/ref&gt;, нидәндер, мин хәзердә дә атта утырып Саснага барганымны, үземне бер киң вә рәхәт галәмдә хис иткәнемне, юлда барганда күз алдымда әллә нинди нурлар уйнаганыны онытмаган шикелле булам.

Саснага барып җиткәнмен. Ничек, ни рәвеш бардым, мине кемнәр каршылады — анысын белмим, ләкин үги әтиемнең&lt;ref&gt;Үги әтием — Сасна пучинкәсенең указсыз мулласы Мөхәммәтшакир Фәйзуллин (1819–1916).&lt;/ref&gt; мине сөюе, миңа чәй янында кәрәзле балны ак күмәчкә ягып бирүе, минем шунда куанганнарым, биш минутлык төш шикелле генә, әле дә булса хәтеремдә.

Ләкин бу рәхәт бик озакка бармаган. Минем анам, бу муллада бер ел кадәрме — күпмедер торгач, белмим, нинди авырудандыр вафат булган.

«Булган», «булганмын», «мине шулай иткәннәр» дип язуымны, билгеле, ул яшьтәге сабыйларның хәтерләрендә бик мөәссир&lt;ref&gt;Мөәссир — тәэсир итүче, тәэсирле.&lt;/ref&gt; булмаса, сирәк дәкыйкалар гына калганлыгыннан гынадыр дип уйлыйм.

Шуның өчен мин монда, әнкәмнең җеназасын күтәреп алып киткәннәрен сизгәч, яланаяк, яланбаш хәлемдә капка астыннан үкереп җылый-җылый җөгереп чыгып: «Әнкәйне кайтарыгыз, әнкәйне биреңез!» — дип, шактый гына җир мәет күтәрүчеләрдән калмый барганымны хәзер дә тәхаттыр иткәнемне&lt;ref&gt;Тәхаттыр иткәнемне — хәтерләвемне.&lt;/ref&gt; язамын.

Әни дә үлгәч, мин бөтенләй ятим булып җиткәнгә, мин бу Сасна мулласы өенә дә сыймаганга, ул мулла мине Өчиле карьясендәге анамның атасы булган бабайга кайтарып биргән.

Минем анамның анасы булган үз әбием әни кыз чактук үлгән булганга, бабай кайсы мулладандыр тол калган бер хатынны аңар ияреп килгән алты баласы илә алган булган.

Өчиле карьясе (исеменнән дә мәгълүм) бик кечкенә вә ярлы бер карья булганга, шуның өстенә мин ятим калган елларда ул тарафларда каты ачлык булганга, бабайның көн күрмеше гаять начар булган.

Менә шул фәкыйрь вә шуның өстенә әллә ничә авызлы булган семья эченә мин ятим бала булып килеп кергәнмен.

Үги әбинең алты күгәрченнәре эчендә мин бер чәүкә булганга, мине җыласам — юатучы, иркәләним дисәм — сөюче, ашыйсым-эчәсем килсә, кызганучы бер дә булмаган, мине эткәннәр дә төрткәннәр.

Бу семья эчендә фәкыйрьлек шул дәрәҗәгә җиткән булырга кирәк ки, мин хәзер дә булса бабайның күрше баерак авыллардан икмәк сыныклары теләнеп алып кайтканын исемдә тотамын.

Шул рәвешчә көннәр үткән, мин монда торганда чәчәк белән дә авырганмын, башка әллә нинди хәстәлекләр дә күргәнмен, тәмам зәгыйфьләнгәнмен.

Бу гаиләдә һәммәсе (бер җитеп килә торган Саҗидә&lt;ref&gt;Саҗидә исемле кыз — Бибисаҗидә Зиннәтулла кызы (1877–1956).&lt;/ref&gt; исемле кыздан башкасы) минем авыруыма: «Ичмасам, чәнчелсә, бер тамак кимер иде», — дип кенә караганнар.

Мин әле хәзер истисна итдекем&lt;ref&gt;Истисна итдекем — аерып алып сөләгән (кешем).&lt;/ref&gt; Саҗидә апайның үги әбидән яшереп кенә мине җуатканын вә сөйгәнен, әби килә башлагач та, минем белән эше юк кеше шикелле, үзенә икенче кыяфәт биргәнен һаман хәтеремдә саклыйм.

Менә шул вакыттан бирле ул апа минем күңелемә фәрештә булып утырган да калган. Күңелем аны уйлый башладисә, хәзер күземә аппак саф бер фәрештә күренә.

Ни күрсәм дә күргәнмен, ни булса да булган — һәр ничек мин бу семьяга сыймаганмын. Беркөнне бабай, үги әбинең киңәше илә булырга кирәк, авылымыздан Казанга бара торган бер ямщиккә мине утыртып, Казанга озаткан.

Ямщик, Казанга килеп җиткәч (безнең авыл Казаннан 60 кына чакрым), Печән базарында: «Асрарга бала бирәм, кем ала?!» — дип кычкырып йөргәндә, халык арасыннан бер кеше чыгып, мине ямщиктән алган. Ул мине мөддәтсез&lt;ref&gt;Мөддәтсез — сроксыз.&lt;/ref&gt; бер асрау бала итеп өенә алып кайткан.

Мин монда торганымны ярты йомык күз белән генә күргән шикелле булам.

Мәсәлән, бервакыт, әллә нинди авырудан күзем авырган вакытта, мине бер карчыкка алып барганнарын, ул минем күзгә шикәр салганын, үземнең салдыртмаска азапланганымны, тартышканымны беләм.

Бу яңа ата-анамның хәленнән бераз язып китим әле.

Миңа әти булганы Мөхәммәтвәли исемле булып, әни булганы Газизә исемле иде. Торулары Яңа бистәдә иде.

Әти талчокта сату итә идеме, әллә тирече идеме шунда — анысын яхшы белмим. Әни, бер дә армый-талмый, байларга кәләпүш эшләп чыгара иде.

Әни, Печән базарына кәләпүш чыгарганда яки бер хезмәт илә байларның өенә барганда, кайвакыт мине дә ияртеп баргалый иде.
Мин, байлар йорт эченең матурлыгыны, идәннән түшәмгә кадәр торган зур көзгеләрен, чиркәү кеби суга торган сәгатьләрен вә сандык кадәр зур органнарын күреп, боларны оҗмахта торалар кеби уйлый идем.

Бервакыт шулай байларга барганда, ишегалдында әллә нинди зиннәтле вә алтынлы койрыгын кояшка каршы ялтыратып йөргән тависне күреп, бигрәк тә сокландым.

Бу ата-анам икесе дә эш кешеләре булдыкларыннан, монда миңа ач торырга тугъры килми иде.

Кайчакта әни белән Ташаяк базарына&lt;ref&gt;Ташаяк базары — Казанда май аенда була торган ярминкә (урыны — Кремль астында, хәзерге Үзәк стадион һәм цирк каршында).&lt;/ref&gt; барып, андагы уенчык базарларына кызыгып вә самокатларда шатланып-шатланып агач атларга атланган малайларны карап, көнләшеп тора идем.

Мин дә атланыр идем — акчам юк. Әнидән сорарга куркам, ул үзе белеп бирми иде.

Шулай итеп, мин кеше рәхәтенә генә кызыгып кайта идем.

Аннан соң, җәй көне ике бистә арасындагы яшел үлән өстендә малайлар илә каз җоннары куып йөргәнемне, арыгач, Хан мәсҗеденә юнәлеп ятып, чирәмдә ял иткәнемне бер дә онытмыйм.

Мин бу ата-анамда ике елмы, — күпмедер торгач, әти дә, әни дә — икесе берьюлы авырый башлаганнар.

Алар, үзләренең үләчәкләреннән куркып: «Без үлсәк, бу бала кем кулына кала, ичмасам, авылына кайтарыйк…» — дип, теге мине Казанга китергән ямщикне табып, мине янәдән аңар утыртып, Өчиле карьясенә йибәргәннәр.

Инде миннән мәңгелеккә котылдык дип уйлаган бу семьянең&lt;ref&gt;Тукайның Зиннәтулла бабасы гаиләсенең.&lt;/ref&gt; мине ничек каршы алганлыкларын уйлап белергә мөмкин.

Мин кайтып бераз торгач та, әби белән бабай, инде мине шәһәргә җибәрүдән өмид кисеп, кайда булса да бер чит авылга асрарга бирергә уйлашканнар.

Болар Өчилегә килгән һәрбер чит авыл кешесенә үзләрендә асрарга бирергә бер ятим бала барлыгын сөйләгәннәр.

Шулай мәшәкатьләнә торгач, Кырлай&lt;ref&gt;Кырлай — Әтнә районындагы Иске Кырлай авылы.&lt;/ref&gt; исемле бездән җиде генә чакрым авылдан Сәгъди&lt;ref&gt;Сәгъди — Сәгъдетдин Шәмсетдин улы Салихов (1837–1904).&lt;/ref&gt; исемле бер ир баласыз кеше, килеп, мине үзенә алып киткән.

Бу урыннан игътибарән &lt;ref&gt;Игътибарән - башлап.&lt;/ref&gt; тәрҗемәи халемне үземнән хикәя итүне күңелем хаклы тапканга, «булган»ны — «булды»га, «йөргәнмен»не — «йөрдем»гә иләх&lt;ref&gt;Иләх — ила ахириһи — ахырына кадәр һ. б. урынына йөри&lt;/ref&gt; алмаштырам. 
&lt;/div&gt;

Минем атам Мөхәммәтгариф&lt;ref&gt;Мөхәммәтгалим исемле мулланың угылы — 1842/1843–1886 елларда яшәгән.&lt;/ref&gt;, Кушлавыч&lt;ref&gt;Кушлавыч карьясе — хәзер Татарстан Республикасының Арча районындагы авыл.&lt;/ref&gt; карьясендә&lt;ref&gt;Карья — авыл.&lt;/ref&gt; Мөхәммәтгалим исемле мулланың угылы булып, 14-15 яшьләрендә Кышкар мәдрәсәсенә&lt;ref&gt;Кышкар мәдрәсәсе — хәзерге Арча районындагы Кышкар авылында борынгыдан мәдрәсә эшләп килгән.&lt;/ref&gt; китеп, анда хәтме көтеб кыйлырга&lt;ref&gt;Хәтме көтеб кыйлырга — укып тәмам итәргә.&lt;/ref&gt; гадәттә ничә сәнә кирәк булган, булса, шулкадәр торып, карт атасы тере вакыттук авылымыз Кушлавычка кайтып, мулла булмыштыр.

Мулла булгач та өйләндеке бер җәмәгате илә берничә генә еллар торгач, җәмәгате вафат булып, бер ир вә бер кыз баласы калмыштыр.

Моннан соңра атам, икенче мәртәбә өйләнүе уларак, Өчиле карьясе&lt;ref&gt;Өчиле карьясе — Арча районында.&lt;/ref&gt; Зиннәтулла хәзрәтнең&lt;ref&gt;Зиннәтулла хәзрәт — Тукай әнисенең әтисе Зиннәтулла Зәйнелбәшир улы, 1829–1909 елларда яшәгән.&lt;/ref&gt; Мәмдүдә&lt;ref&gt;Мәмдүдә — Тукайның әнисе Бибимәмдүдә Зиннәтулла кызы, 1865–1890 елларда яшәгән.&lt;/ref&gt; исемле кызына (минем анамны) алмыштыр.

Анам илә бер ел ярым кадәр торгач, беренче бала уларак, мин дөньяга килгәнмен.

Минем туганыма 5 ай заман үткәч, атам аз гына вакыт авырып, тәрке дөнья итмештер&lt;ref&gt;Тәрке дөнья итмештер — дөнья куйган, үлгән.&lt;/ref&gt;. 

Тол калган анам янында мин берничә вакыт торгач, анам мине авылымыздагы Шәрифә исемле бер фәкыйрә карчыкка вакытча асрарга биреп калдырып, үзе Сасна&lt;ref&gt;Сасна нам карья — Балтач районындагы Сасна пучинкәсе (авыл).&lt;/ref&gt; нам&lt;ref&gt;Нам — исемле.&lt;/ref&gt; карьянең имамына кияүгә чыкмыштыр.

Бу вакыт атамның ата-анасы (бабай вә әби) күптән вафат булып, авылда башка туганнарым булмаганлыктан, мин бу карчык ханәсендә кадерсез, артык бер бала булганлыктан, ул мине, әлбәттә, тәрбияләмәгән; тәрбияләү түгел, яшь балаларның иң мохтаҗ булдыклары ачык йөзне дә күрсәтмәгән.

Мин үзем ул карчыкта үткән заманның ничеклеген белмим. Ул вакыт мин ике-ике ярым яшемдә генә булганмын дип уйлыйм.

Хәзер авылда минем вакъты сабавәтемне&lt;ref&gt;Вакъты сабавәтемне — &lt;/ref&gt; күргән карчык вә хатыннар мөрәббия&lt;ref&gt;Мөрәббия — тәрбияче (хатын-кыз).&lt;/ref&gt; карчыгымның минем илә бик начар мөгамәләдә булганлыгын үземә хикәят итәләр.

Җөмләдән берсе.

Мин кыш көннәрендә төнлә яланаяк, күлмәкчән көенчә тышка чыгам икән дә, бераздан өйгә кермәкче булып, ишеккә киләм икән. Кыш көне авыл ызбаларының ишекләрен ачмак балага түгел, шактый үсмер кешеләргә дә мәшәкать вә көч булганлыктан, табигый, мин ишекне ача алмыйм вә ишек төбендә аякларым бозга ябышып катканча көтеп торам икән.

Карчык исә үзенең «Кадалмас әле килмешәк!» дигән «шәфкатьле» фикере илә мине үзе теләгән вакытта орыша-орыша кертә икән.
Ул карчык үлгән инде; Аллаһы аңар рәхмәт итсен.

Мин бу карчыкта торган мөддәттә&lt;ref&gt;Мөддәттә — вакыт эчендә.&lt;/ref&gt; анам да теге муллага үзләшеп йиткән булырга кирәк: ул бервакыт мине үзе янына Саснага алдырырга атлар йибәрткән.

Мине бу атлар, әлбәттә, Саснага алып киткәннәр.

Хәер, алып киткәннәр генә түгел, шул атка утырып киткән дәкыйкаләрдә&lt;ref&gt;Дәкыйка — минут.&lt;/ref&gt; миндә, бала булсам да, бер нәүгы шөгур хасил булганмы&lt;ref&gt;Бер нәүгы шөгур хасил булганмы — бер төрле сизенү, аң ачылып китү барлыкка килгәнме&lt;/ref&gt;, нидәндер, мин хәзердә дә атта утырып Саснага барганымны, үземне бер киң вә рәхәт галәмдә хис иткәнемне, юлда барганда күз алдымда әллә нинди нурлар уйнаганыны онытмаган шикелле булам.

Саснага барып җиткәнмен. Ничек, ни рәвеш бардым, мине кемнәр каршылады — анысын белмим, ләкин үги әтиемнең&lt;ref&gt;Үги әтием — Сасна пучинкәсенең указсыз мулласы Мөхәммәтшакир Фәйзуллин (1819–1916).&lt;/ref&gt; мине сөюе, миңа чәй янында кәрәзле балны ак күмәчкә ягып бирүе, минем шунда куанганнарым, биш минутлык төш шикелле генә, әле дә булса хәтеремдә.

Ләкин бу рәхәт бик озакка бармаган. Минем анам, бу муллада бер ел кадәрме — күпмедер торгач, белмим, нинди авырудандыр вафат булган.

«Булган», «булганмын», «мине шулай иткәннәр» дип язуымны, билгеле, ул яшьтәге сабыйларның хәтерләрендә бик мөәссир&lt;ref&gt;Мөәссир — тәэсир итүче, тәэсирле.&lt;/ref&gt; булмаса, сирәк дәкыйкалар гына калганлыгыннан гынадыр дип уйлыйм.

Шуның өчен мин монда, әнкәмнең җеназасын күтәреп алып киткәннәрен сизгәч, яланаяк, яланбаш хәлемдә капка астыннан үкереп җылый-җылый җөгереп чыгып: «Әнкәйне кайтарыгыз, әнкәйне биреңез!» — дип, шактый гына җир мәет күтәрүчеләрдән калмый барганымны хәзер дә тәхаттыр иткәнемне&lt;ref&gt;Тәхаттыр иткәнемне — хәтерләвемне.&lt;/ref&gt; язамын.

Әни дә үлгәч, мин бөтенләй ятим булып җиткәнгә, мин бу Сасна мулласы өенә дә сыймаганга, ул мулла мине Өчиле карьясендәге анамның атасы булган бабайга кайтарып биргән.

Минем анамның анасы булган үз әбием әни кыз чактук үлгән булганга, бабай кайсы мулладандыр тол калган бер хатынны аңар ияреп килгән алты баласы илә алган булган.

Өчиле карьясе (исеменнән дә мәгълүм) бик кечкенә вә ярлы бер карья булганга, шуның өстенә мин ятим калган елларда ул тарафларда каты ачлык булганга, бабайның көн күрмеше гаять начар булган.

Менә шул фәкыйрь вә шуның өстенә әллә ничә авызлы булган семья эченә мин ятим бала булып килеп кергәнмен.

Үги әбинең алты күгәрченнәре эчендә мин бер чәүкә булганга, мине җыласам — юатучы, иркәләним дисәм — сөюче, ашыйсым-эчәсем килсә, кызганучы бер дә булмаган, мине эткәннәр дә төрткәннәр.

Бу семья эчендә фәкыйрьлек шул дәрәҗәгә җиткән булырга кирәк ки, мин хәзер дә булса бабайның күрше баерак авыллардан икмәк сыныклары теләнеп алып кайтканын исемдә тотамын.

Шул рәвешчә көннәр үткән, мин монда торганда чәчәк белән дә авырганмын, башка әллә нинди хәстәлекләр дә күргәнмен, тәмам зәгыйфьләнгәнмен.

Бу гаиләдә һәммәсе (бер җитеп килә торган Саҗидә&lt;ref&gt;Саҗидә исемле кыз — Бибисаҗидә Зиннәтулла кызы (1877–1956).&lt;/ref&gt; исемле кыздан башкасы) минем авыруыма: «Ичмасам, чәнчелсә, бер тамак кимер иде», — дип кенә караганнар.

Мин әле хәзер истисна итдекем&lt;ref&gt;Истисна итдекем — аерып алып сөләгән (кешем).&lt;/ref&gt; Саҗидә апайның үги әбидән яшереп кенә мине җуатканын вә сөйгәнен, әби килә башлагач та, минем белән эше юк кеше шикелле, үзенә икенче кыяфәт биргәнен һаман хәтеремдә саклыйм.

Менә шул вакыттан бирле ул апа минем күңелемә фәрештә булып утырган да калган. Күңелем аны уйлый башладисә, хәзер күземә аппак саф бер фәрештә күренә.

Ни күрсәм дә күргәнмен, ни булса да булган — һәр ничек мин бу семьяга сыймаганмын. Беркөнне бабай, үги әбинең киңәше илә булырга кирәк, авылымыздан Казанга бара торган бер ямщиккә мине утыртып, Казанга озаткан.

Ямщик, Казанга килеп җиткәч (безнең авыл Казаннан 60 кына чакрым), Печән базарында: «Асрарга бала бирәм, кем ала?!» — дип кычкырып йөргәндә, халык арасыннан бер кеше чыгып, мине ямщиктән алган. Ул мине мөддәтсез&lt;ref&gt;Мөддәтсез — сроксыз.&lt;/ref&gt; бер асрау бала итеп өенә алып кайткан.

Мин монда торганымны ярты йомык күз белән генә күргән шикелле булам.

Мәсәлән, бервакыт, әллә нинди авырудан күзем авырган вакытта, мине бер карчыкка алып барганнарын, ул минем күзгә шикәр салганын, үземнең салдыртмаска азапланганымны, тартышканымны беләм.

Бу яңа ата-анамның хәленнән бераз язып китим әле.

Миңа әти булганы Мөхәммәтвәли исемле булып, әни булганы Газизә исемле иде. Торулары Яңа бистәдә иде.

Әти талчокта сату итә идеме, әллә тирече идеме шунда — анысын яхшы белмим. Әни, бер дә армый-талмый, байларга кәләпүш эшләп чыгара иде.

Әни, Печән базарына кәләпүш чыгарганда яки бер хезмәт илә байларның өенә барганда, кайвакыт мине дә ияртеп баргалый иде.
Мин, байлар йорт эченең матурлыгыны, идәннән түшәмгә кадәр торган зур көзгеләрен, чиркәү кеби суга торган сәгатьләрен вә сандык кадәр зур органнарын күреп, боларны оҗмахта торалар кеби уйлый идем.

Бервакыт шулай байларга барганда, ишегалдында әллә нинди зиннәтле вә алтынлы койрыгын кояшка каршы ялтыратып йөргән тависне күреп, бигрәк тә сокландым.

Бу ата-анам икесе дә эш кешеләре булдыкларыннан, монда миңа ач торырга тугъры килми иде.

Кайчакта әни белән Ташаяк базарына&lt;ref&gt;Ташаяк базары — Казанда май аенда була торган ярминкә (урыны — Кремль астында, хәзерге Үзәк стадион һәм цирк каршында).&lt;/ref&gt; барып, андагы уенчык базарларына кызыгып вә самокатларда шатланып-шатланып агач атларга атланган малайларны карап, көнләшеп тора идем.

Мин дә атланыр идем — акчам юк. Әнидән сорарга куркам, ул үзе белеп бирми иде.

Шулай итеп, мин кеше рәхәтенә генә кызыгып кайта идем.

Аннан соң, җәй көне ике бистә арасындагы яшел үлән өстендә малайлар илә каз җоннары куып йөргәнемне, арыгач, Хан мәсҗеденә юнәлеп ятып, чирәмдә ял иткәнемне бер дә онытмыйм.

Мин бу ата-анамда ике елмы, — күпмедер торгач, әти дә, әни дә — икесе берьюлы авырый башлаганнар.

Алар, үзләренең үләчәкләреннән куркып: «Без үлсәк, бу бала кем кулына кала, ичмасам, авылына кайтарыйк…» — дип, теге мине Казанга китергән ямщикне табып, мине янәдән аңар утыртып, Өчиле карьясенә йибәргәннәр.

Инде миннән мәңгелеккә котылдык дип уйлаган бу семьянең&lt;ref&gt;Тукайның Зиннәтулла бабасы гаиләсенең.&lt;/ref&gt; мине ничек каршы алганлыкларын уйлап белергә мөмкин.

Мин кайтып бераз торгач та, әби белән бабай, инде мине шәһәргә җибәрүдән өмид кисеп, кайда булса да бер чит авылга асрарга бирергә уйлашканнар.

Болар Өчилегә килгән һәрбер чит авыл кешесенә үзләрендә асрарга бирергә бер ятим бала барлыгын сөйләгәннәр.

Шулай мәшәкатьләнә торгач, Кырлай&lt;ref&gt;Кырлай — Әтнә районындагы Иске Кырлай авылы.&lt;/ref&gt; исемле бездән җиде генә чакрым авылдан Сәгъди&lt;ref&gt;Сәгъди — Сәгъдетдин Шәмсетдин улы Салихов (1837–1904).&lt;/ref&gt; исемле бер ир баласыз кеше, килеп, мине үзенә алып киткән.

Бу урыннан игътибарән &lt;ref&gt;Игътибарән - башлап.&lt;/ref&gt; тәрҗемәи халемне үземнән хикәя итүне күңелем хаклы тапканга, «булган»ны — «булды»га, «йөргәнмен»не — «йөрдем»гә иләх&lt;ref&gt;Иләх — ила ахириһи — ахырына кадәр һ. б. урынына йөри&lt;/ref&gt; алмаштырам. 
&lt;/div&gt;

Бабайлар өеннән чыгып, Сәгъди абзыйның арбасына утырдым. Бабай белән әби (Сәгъди абзыйдан яхшысынмый гына булырга кирәк) мине озатырга чыктылар. Тагы да минем китүемне кызык күргән яланаяклы малайлар да арба тирәсендә җөгергәләп йөриләр иде.

Арба кузгалды. Сәгъди абзый белән без янәшә утырып киттек. Ул юлда миңа: «Менә хәзер Кырлайга кайтып җитәбез, анда әниең&lt;ref&gt;Әни — Сәгъдетдин хатыны Зөһрә Габделгани кызы.&lt;/ref&gt; каршы чыгып көтеп тора торгандыр. Аллаһы боерса, бездә катык, сөт, ипи күп, теләгәнчә ашарсың», — дип, миңа барып йитәргә ике-өч кенә чакрым калган бәхетләр илә мине җуатып бара иде.

Мин дә, ачык йөзләрне бик күптән күрмәгәнгә күрә, эчемнән бик шатлана идем.

Бу вакыт җәйнең матур чаклары булганга, әтрафтагы яшел чирәмнәр вә урманнар, артык эссе булмыйча, үзенең нурлары белән сөеп кенә торган кояш икенче яктан тагы рәхәтләндерәләр иде.

Ниһаять, Кырлайга барып кердек. Сәгъди абзыйның йорты басу капкасыннан кергәч күп ерак түгел икән; аз гына баргач, коймасы читәннән булган тәбәнәк кенә, салам түбәле бер өйгә туктадык.

Юлда Сәгъди абзый әйткәнчә, вакыйган&lt;ref&gt;Вакыйган — чыннан да.&lt;/ref&gt;, минем әни каршы чыккан икән, ул капканы ачты; мине ачык йөз илә каршы алып, арбадан күтәреп төшереп, өйгә дә алып керде.

Тыштагы эшләрен караштыргалагач, атын туаргач, әти дә өйгә керде. Кергәч тә, әнигә хитабән&lt;ref&gt;Хитабән — эндәшеп.&lt;/ref&gt;: «Хатын! Бар, балага катык белән ипи китереп бир», — дип әмер итте.

Әни дә, дәрхаль&lt;ref&gt;Дәрхаль — шунда ук.&lt;/ref&gt; баздан катык алып менеп, миңа зур гына икмәк телеменең яртысын тоттырды.

Мин исә, Казаннан кайтканнан бирле җүнләп аш йөзен күрмәгәнгә күрә, бик шәп бер иштиһа илә&lt;ref&gt;Иштиһа илә — теләк (аппетит) белән.&lt;/ref&gt; икмәк белән катыкны ялт иттердем.

Тамак туйгач, әнинең рөхсәте илә урамга чыктым. Мин, анда чыгып, адашудан куркып, артыма карый-карый гына барадыр идем, менә берзаман тирә-ягымны әллә кайдан килеп чыккан авыл малайлары сарып алдылар.

Алар һәр көн авылның бер башыннан бер башына җөгереп йөреп тә, бу көнгә кадәр мине күрмәгәнгә, аннан соң минем өстемдә Казаннан киеп кайткан каюлы ситса күлмәк, башымда да мине Өчилегә кире йибәрер алдыннан әнинең, миңа сагынмалык булсын дип, төрле төсле хәтфәләрдән корамалап ясаган кәләпүше булганга, бу Кырлай малайлары миңа бик гаҗәпләнеп карыйлар иде.

Малайлар карап тордылар-тордылар да таралдылар; мин бүген аларга катыша алмадым, өйгә кереп киттем.

Өйгә кайтып керсәм, анда (бая катык ашаганда күрмәдекем) ике җиткән кызлар күрдем.

Боларның берсе — таза гына гәүдәле, кызыл йөзле, күк күзле, икенчесе — арык кына, сары йөзле генә, култыгында агач таяклары бар аксак бер кыз иде.

Әни миңа: «Менә болар апайларың: берсе Саҗидә&lt;ref&gt;Саҗидә — Сәгъдетдин кызы Бибисаҗидә (1879–1894).&lt;/ref&gt; апаең, берсе Сабира&lt;ref&gt;Сабира — Сәгъдетдин кызы Бибисабира (?–1892).&lt;/ref&gt; апаең, күреш», — дигәч, мин әкрен генә барып кулымны суздым.

Болар Сәгъди абзыйның кызлары булып, аксагы Саҗидә атлы икән. Шулай итеп, мин монда яхшы гына тора башладым. Авыл малайлары белән дә таныштым.

Сәгъди абзыйның юлда әйткәненчә, вакыйган, монда катык, сөт күп, шулай ук бәрәңгегә дә ихтыяҗ юк иде.

Мин барып бер аймы, күпмедер торгач, урак вакыты җитте. Әти, әни вә ике апай уракка китә башладылар.

Мин исә уракка бармый идем. Иптәш малайлар илә авыл буенда җөгерә вә болынлыкларда көн буе ауный идем. Әгәр көндез кайвакыт уен арасында карыным ачса, тиз генә өйгә кайтып, җан тәрәзәдән генә өйгә кереп, әнинең минем өлешкә калдырган бер җамаяк бәрәңгесе илә бер телем икмәген ашый идем.

Алар әбәттән (көндезге аш) соң ишекне бикләсәләр дә, минем ашарга кайтасымны белеп, җан тәрәзәне эчтән бикләми китәләр иде.

Урак вакытында бөтен халык һәммәсе эшкә китеп, авылда эшкә ярамаган карчыклардан башка һич кеше дә калмаганлыктан, без бакчалардагы яшел суганнар башына бер дә кәҗәдән ким бәла булмыйдыр идек. Әгәр өй саклаучы карчыклар күрсә, без дәрхаль киртәдән сикереп качадыр идек. Карчык мискинәнең орышып, тешен кысып калудан башка кулыннан бер эш тә килмидер иде.

Әгәр уйный торгач тирләсәк, хәзер үзебезнең ындыр артындагы кечкенә генә инешкә төшеп, шуннан әллә ничәшәр сәгать чыкмыйча коенып, күлмәк-ыштаннар илә вак балыклар сөзеп ята идек. Күңелле чаклар!

Бервакыт шулай уйнап йөргәннән соңра, кич белән өйгә кайтсам, өй эчендә һәммә кешене күңелсез вә кәефсез күрдем. «Бу нидән икән?» дип уйлап торгач, Сабира апайның идәннән сәкегә котырган шикелле җөгерүен вә кая барып бәрелгәнен дә белмәвен һәм күзләре әллә нинди коточкыч булып акайганын күргәч, аның урактан «җенләнеп» авырып кайтканын белдем.

Ул көнне өйдәгеләр берсе дә йокламый үткәрделәр. Мин генә, бик йокым килгәч, тыштагы арбага чыгып йокладым.

Иртә белән, таң сызылып килгәндә, колагыма:

«Сабира апаң вафат булды; син йоклап ятасың, тор, тор!» дигән бер тавыш килгәч, күземне ачып карасам — каршымда әни тора иде.

Бу, билгеле, миңа да гади хәбәр түгел — йокы тәмле булса да, сикереп тордым.

Шул көнне Сабира апаны җирләделәр. Аны җирләп берничә көн үткәч, әнинең әтигә:

— Менә «үксез бала асрасаң, авызың-борының кан итәр; үксез бозау асрасаң, авызың-борының май итәр» шул инде ул; мөгаен, шуның шомлыгыннан булды инде бу! — дип сөйләгәнен ишеткәли башладым.

Андин соң кайчакларда әнинең җә кушкан җомышын тыңламасам, җә җиренә җиткерми эшләсәм, шул сүзне әйткәли торган иде.

Әти белән без бик-бик тату идек. Ул бер дә миңа каты сүз әйтми иде. Мәсәлән, бервакыт минем Казаннан киеп кайткан күлмәк-ыштаннарым, читек-кәвешләрем, казакиләрем тузгач, әти үзенең мин килмәстән бер ел элек үлгән угылының күк киндер күлмәге белән бишмәтен миңа бирмәкче булды.

Шунда әни:

— Мин үз угылымның төсе итеп саклаган киемнәрне кешегә бирер хәлем юк, — дип, бик озак тарткалашты.

Ахырда әти:

— Җә, хатынланма әле юкка, үзеңнән тумаган бала дип, әллә аны шыр ялангач йөртерсеңме? — дип, киемнәрне көчләп диярлек миңа алып киертте. 
&lt;/div&gt;

Аллаһы боерса, бездә катык, сөт, ипи күп, теләгәнчә ашарсың», — дип, миңа барып йитәргә ике-өч кенә чакрым калган бәхетләр илә мине җуатып бара иде.

Мин дә, ачык йөзләрне бик күптән күрмәгәнгә күрә, эчемнән бик шатлана идем.

Бу вакыт җәйнең матур чаклары булганга, әтрафтагы яшел чирәмнәр вә урманнар, артык эссе булмыйча, үзенең нурлары белән сөеп кенә торган кояш икенче яктан тагы рәхәтләндерәләр иде.

Ниһаять, Кырлайга барып кердек. Сәгъди абзыйның йорты басу капкасыннан кергәч күп ерак түгел икән; аз гына баргач, коймасы читәннән булган тәбәнәк кенә, салам түбәле бер өйгә туктадык.

Юлда Сәгъди абзый әйткәнчә, вакыйган&lt;ref&gt;Вакыйган — чыннан да.&lt;/ref&gt;, минем әни каршы чыккан икән, ул капканы ачты; мине ачык йөз илә каршы алып, арбадан күтәреп төшереп, өйгә дә алып керде.

Тыштагы эшләрен караштыргалагач, атын туаргач, әти дә өйгә керде. Кергәч тә, әнигә хитабән&lt;ref&gt;Хитабән — эндәшеп.&lt;/ref&gt;: «Хатын! Бар, балага катык белән ипи китереп бир», — дип әмер итте.

Әни дә, дәрхаль&lt;ref&gt;Дәрхаль — шунда ук.&lt;/ref&gt; баздан катык алып менеп, миңа зур гына икмәк телеменең яртысын тоттырды.

Мин исә, Казаннан кайтканнан бирле җүнләп аш йөзен күрмәгәнгә күрә, бик шәп бер иштиһа илә&lt;ref&gt;Иштиһа илә — теләк (аппетит) белән.&lt;/ref&gt; икмәк белән катыкны ялт иттердем.

Тамак туйгач, әнинең рөхсәте илә урамга чыктым. Мин, анда чыгып, адашудан куркып, артыма карый-карый гына барадыр идем, менә берзаман тирә-ягымны әллә кайдан килеп чыккан авыл малайлары сарып алдылар.

Алар һәр көн авылның бер башыннан бер башына җөгереп йөреп тә, бу көнгә кадәр мине күрмәгәнгә, аннан соң минем өстемдә Казаннан киеп кайткан каюлы ситса күлмәк, башымда да мине Өчилегә кире йибәрер алдыннан әнинең, миңа сагынмалык булсын дип, төрле төсле хәтфәләрдән корамалап ясаган кәләпүше булганга, бу Кырлай малайлары миңа бик гаҗәпләнеп карыйлар иде.

Малайлар карап тордылар-тордылар да таралдылар; мин бүген аларга катыша алмадым, өйгә кереп киттем.

Өйгә кайтып керсәм, анда (бая катык ашаганда күрмәдекем) ике җиткән кызлар күрдем.

Боларның берсе — таза гына гәүдәле, кызыл йөзле, күк күзле, икенчесе — арык кына, сары йөзле генә, култыгында агач таяклары бар аксак бер кыз иде.

Әни миңа: «Менә болар апайларың: берсе Саҗидә&lt;ref&gt;Саҗидә — Сәгъдетдин кызы Бибисаҗидә (1879–1894).&lt;/ref&gt; апаең, берсе Сабира&lt;ref&gt;Сабира — Сәгъдетдин кызы Бибисабира (?–1892).&lt;/ref&gt; апаең, күреш», — дигәч, мин әкрен генә барып кулымны суздым.

Болар Сәгъди абзыйның кызлары булып, аксагы Саҗидә атлы икән. Шулай итеп, мин монда яхшы гына тора башладым. Авыл малайлары белән дә таныштым.

Сәгъди абзыйның юлда әйткәненчә, вакыйган, монда катык, сөт күп, шулай ук бәрәңгегә дә ихтыяҗ юк иде.

Мин барып бер аймы, күпмедер торгач, урак вакыты җитте. Әти, әни вә ике апай уракка китә башладылар.

Мин исә уракка бармый идем. Иптәш малайлар илә авыл буенда җөгерә вә болынлыкларда көн буе ауный идем. Әгәр көндез кайвакыт уен арасында карыным ачса, тиз генә өйгә кайтып, җан тәрәзәдән генә өйгә кереп, әнинең минем өлешкә калдырган бер җамаяк бәрәңгесе илә бер телем икмәген ашый идем.

Алар әбәттән (көндезге аш) соң ишекне бикләсәләр дә, минем ашарга кайтасымны белеп, җан тәрәзәне эчтән бикләми китәләр иде.

Урак вакытында бөтен халык һәммәсе эшкә китеп, авылда эшкә ярамаган карчыклардан башка һич кеше дә калмаганлыктан, без бакчалардагы яшел суганнар башына бер дә кәҗәдән ким бәла булмыйдыр идек. Әгәр өй саклаучы карчыклар күрсә, без дәрхаль киртәдән сикереп качадыр идек. Карчык мискинәнең орышып, тешен кысып калудан башка кулыннан бер эш тә килмидер иде.

Әгәр уйный торгач тирләсәк, хәзер үзебезнең ындыр артындагы кечкенә генә инешкә төшеп, шуннан әллә ничәшәр сәгать чыкмыйча коенып, күлмәк-ыштаннар илә вак балыклар сөзеп ята идек. Күңелле чаклар!

Бервакыт шулай уйнап йөргәннән соңра, кич белән өйгә кайтсам, өй эчендә һәммә кешене күңелсез вә кәефсез күрдем. «Бу нидән икән?» дип уйлап торгач, Сабира апайның идәннән сәкегә котырган шикелле җөгерүен вә кая барып бәрелгәнен дә белмәвен һәм күзләре әллә нинди коточкыч булып акайганын күргәч, аның урактан «җенләнеп» авырып кайтканын белдем.

Ул көнне өйдәгеләр берсе дә йокламый үткәрделәр. Мин генә, бик йокым килгәч, тыштагы арбага чыгып йокладым.

Иртә белән, таң сызылып килгәндә, колагыма:

«Сабира апаң вафат булды; син йоклап ятасың, тор, тор!» дигән бер тавыш килгәч, күземне ачып карасам — каршымда әни тора иде.

Бу, билгеле, миңа да гади хәбәр түгел — йокы тәмле булса да, сикереп тордым.

Шул көнне Сабира апаны җирләделәр. Аны җирләп берничә көн үткәч, әнинең әтигә:

— Менә «үксез бала асрасаң, авызың-борының кан итәр; үксез бозау асрасаң, авызың-борының май итәр» шул инде ул; мөгаен, шуның шомлыгыннан булды инде бу! — дип сөйләгәнен ишеткәли башладым.

Андин соң кайчакларда әнинең җә кушкан җомышын тыңламасам, җә җиренә җиткерми эшләсәм, шул сүзне әйткәли торган иде.

Әти белән без бик-бик тату идек. Ул бер дә миңа каты сүз әйтми иде. Мәсәлән, бервакыт минем Казаннан киеп кайткан күлмәк-ыштаннарым, читек-кәвешләрем, казакиләрем тузгач, әти үзенең мин килмәстән бер ел элек үлгән угылының күк киндер күлмәге белән бишмәтен миңа бирмәкче булды.

Шунда әни:

— Мин үз угылымның төсе итеп саклаган киемнәрне кешегә бирер хәлем юк, — дип, бик озак тарткалашты.

Ахырда әти:

— Җә, хатынланма әле юкка, үзеңнән тумаган бала дип, әллә аны шыр ялангач йөртерсеңме? — дип, киемнәрне көчләп диярлек миңа алып киертте. 
&lt;/div&gt;

Бабайлар өеннән чыгып, Сәгъди абзыйның арбасына утырдым. Бабай белән әби (Сәгъди абзыйдан яхшысынмый гына булырга кирәк) мине озатырга чыктылар. Тагы да минем китүемне кызык күргән яланаяклы малайлар да арба тирәсендә җөгергәләп йөриләр иде.

Арба кузгалды. Сәгъди абзый белән без янәшә утырып киттек. Ул юлда миңа: «Менә хәзер Кырлайга кайтып җитәбез, анда әниең&lt;ref&gt;Әни — Сәгъдетдин хатыны Зөһрә Габделгани кызы.&lt;/ref&gt; каршы чыгып көтеп тора торгандыр.

Тыштагы эшләрен караштыргалагач, атын туаргач, әти дә өйгә керде. Кергәч тә, әнигә хитабән&lt;ref&gt;Хитабән — эндәшеп.&lt;/ref&gt;: «Хатын! Бар, балага катык белән ипи китереп бир», — дип әмер итте.

Әни дә, дәрхаль&lt;ref&gt;Дәрхаль — шунда ук.&lt;/ref&gt; баздан катык алып менеп, миңа зур гына икмәк телеменең яртысын тоттырды.

Мин исә, Казаннан кайтканнан бирле җүнләп аш йөзен күрмәгәнгә күрә, бик шәп бер иштиһа илә&lt;ref&gt;Иштиһа илә — теләк (аппетит) белән.&lt;/ref&gt; икмәк белән катыкны ялт иттердем.

Тамак туйгач, әнинең рөхсәте илә урамга чыктым. Мин, анда чыгып, адашудан куркып, артыма карый-карый гына барадыр идем, менә берзаман тирә-ягымны әллә кайдан килеп чыккан авыл малайлары сарып алдылар.

Алар һәр көн авылның бер башыннан бер башына җөгереп йөреп тә, бу көнгә кадәр мине күрмәгәнгә, аннан соң минем өстемдә Казаннан киеп кайткан каюлы ситса күлмәк, башымда да мине Өчилегә кире йибәрер алдыннан әнинең, миңа сагынмалык булсын дип, төрле төсле хәтфәләрдән корамалап ясаган кәләпүше булганга, бу Кырлай малайлары миңа бик гаҗәпләнеп карыйлар иде.

Малайлар карап тордылар-тордылар да таралдылар; мин бүген аларга катыша алмадым, өйгә кереп киттем.

Өйгә кайтып керсәм, анда (бая катык ашаганда күрмәдекем) ике җиткән кызлар күрдем.

Боларның берсе — таза гына гәүдәле, кызыл йөзле, күк күзле, икенчесе — арык кына, сары йөзле генә, култыгында агач таяклары бар аксак бер кыз иде.

Әни миңа: «Менә болар апайларың: берсе Саҗидә&lt;ref&gt;Саҗидә — Сәгъдетдин кызы Бибисаҗидә (1879–1894).&lt;/ref&gt; апаең, берсе Сабира&lt;ref&gt;Сабира — Сәгъдетдин кызы Бибисабира (?–1892).&lt;/ref&gt; апаең, күреш», — дигәч, мин әкрен генә барып кулымны суздым.

Болар Сәгъди абзыйның кызлары булып, аксагы Саҗидә атлы икән. Шулай итеп, мин монда яхшы гына тора башладым. Авыл малайлары белән дә таныштым.

Сәгъди абзыйның юлда әйткәненчә, вакыйган, монда катык, сөт күп, шулай ук бәрәңгегә дә ихтыяҗ юк иде.

Мин барып бер аймы, күпмедер торгач, урак вакыты җитте. Әти, әни вә ике апай уракка китә башладылар.

Мин исә уракка бармый идем. Иптәш малайлар илә авыл буенда җөгерә вә болынлыкларда көн буе ауный идем. Әгәр көндез кайвакыт уен арасында карыным ачса, тиз генә өйгә кайтып, җан тәрәзәдән генә өйгә кереп, әнинең минем өлешкә калдырган бер җамаяк бәрәңгесе илә бер телем икмәген ашый идем.

Алар әбәттән (көндезге аш) соң ишекне бикләсәләр дә, минем ашарга кайтасымны белеп, җан тәрәзәне эчтән бикләми китәләр иде.

Урак вакытында бөтен халык һәммәсе эшкә китеп, авылда эшкә ярамаган карчыклардан башка һич кеше дә калмаганлыктан, без бакчалардагы яшел суганнар башына бер дә кәҗәдән ким бәла булмыйдыр идек. Әгәр өй саклаучы карчыклар күрсә, без дәрхаль киртәдән сикереп качадыр идек. Карчык мискинәнең орышып, тешен кысып калудан башка кулыннан бер эш тә килмидер иде.

Әгәр уйный торгач тирләсәк, хәзер үзебезнең ындыр артындагы кечкенә генә инешкә төшеп, шуннан әллә ничәшәр сәгать чыкмыйча коенып, күлмәк-ыштаннар илә вак балыклар сөзеп ята идек. Күңелле чаклар!

Бервакыт шулай уйнап йөргәннән соңра, кич белән өйгә кайтсам, өй эчендә һәммә кешене күңелсез вә кәефсез күрдем. «Бу нидән икән?» дип уйлап торгач, Сабира апайның идәннән сәкегә котырган шикелле җөгерүен вә кая барып бәрелгәнен дә белмәвен һәм күзләре әллә нинди коточкыч булып акайганын күргәч, аның урактан «җенләнеп» авырып кайтканын белдем.

Ул көнне өйдәгеләр берсе дә йокламый үткәрделәр. Мин генә, бик йокым килгәч, тыштагы арбага чыгып йокладым.

Иртә белән, таң сызылып килгәндә, колагыма:

«Сабира апаң вафат булды; син йоклап ятасың, тор, тор!» дигән бер тавыш килгәч, күземне ачып карасам — каршымда әни тора иде.

Бу, билгеле, миңа да гади хәбәр түгел — йокы тәмле булса да, сикереп тордым.

Шул көнне Сабира апаны җирләделәр. Аны җирләп берничә көн үткәч, әнинең әтигә:

— Менә «үксез бала асрасаң, авызың-борының кан итәр; үксез бозау асрасаң, авызың-борының май итәр» шул инде ул; мөгаен, шуның шомлыгыннан булды инде бу! — дип сөйләгәнен ишеткәли башладым.

Андин соң кайчакларда әнинең җә кушкан җомышын тыңламасам, җә җиренә җиткерми эшләсәм, шул сүзне әйткәли торган иде.

Әти белән без бик-бик тату идек. Ул бер дә миңа каты сүз әйтми иде. Мәсәлән, бервакыт минем Казаннан киеп кайткан күлмәк-ыштаннарым, читек-кәвешләрем, казакиләрем тузгач, әти үзенең мин килмәстән бер ел элек үлгән угылының күк киндер күлмәге белән бишмәтен миңа бирмәкче булды.

Шунда әни:

— Мин үз угылымның төсе итеп саклаган киемнәрне кешегә бирер хәлем юк, — дип, бик озак тарткалашты.

Ахырда әти:

— Җә, хатынланма әле юкка, үзеңнән тумаган бала дип, әллә аны шыр ялангач йөртерсеңме? — дип, киемнәрне көчләп диярлек миңа алып киертте. 
&lt;/div&gt;

Рамазан шәрифтә бер Мөритнең бик ифтар итәсе&lt;ref&gt;Ифтар итәсе — монда &quot;көндез ашыйсы&quot;ны аңлата.&lt;/ref&gt; килде. Мөрит бу тугърыда күп уйламыйча, бер караңгы бүлмәгә кереп, шәм яндырды да, шәмгә тотып җомырка пешерергә тотынды. Җомырка пешкәч, кабыгын әрчеп ашарга гына башлаган иде, кисәктән күзе алдында үзенең шәйхе пәйда булып&lt;ref&gt;Шәйхе пәйдә булып — ишаны күренеп.&lt;/ref&gt;: &quot;Бу ни гөнаһ!&quot; — дип кычкырды.

Мөритнең курыкканлыктан теле тотылып: &quot;Хәзрәт, зинһар, кичерә күр, Шәйтан котыртыт... кот... котырткан иде&quot;, — дигәндә, мич астыннан бер Шәйтан баласы сикереп чыты да, Мөриткә карап: &quot;И оятсыз! Син нәфесең теләгән эшне эшлисең дә һаман без Шәйтаннарны гаеплисең; мин әле шәмгә тотып җомырка пешерүе үзем дә синнән генә өйрәндем&quot;. — диде.

Шулай итеп, урак бетте, көз җитте. Ашлыклар эшен бетергәч, бакчага чыгып, бәрәңге казырга вакыт җитте.

Бу бәрәңге казу вакытында миңа урак вакытындагы кеби уйнап йөрергә тугъры килмәде: мине казып чыгарылган бәрәңгеләрне капчыкка тутырырга куштылар. Мин дә үз хезмәтемне яхшы гына эшләдем.

Бу вакыт, көз көненең салкын вакытлары булса да, мин яланаяк идем. Аякларым туңганга, мин аларны балчыкка күмеп утыра идем.

Бервакыт шулай, аякны балчыкка күмеп, бәрәңге чүпләгән чагымда, теге бәрәңге казучы аксак Саҗидә апай яңлыш минем аякка тимер көрәк белән чапты.

Аяк шактый тирән җәрәхәтләнде, мин урынымнан сикереп торып, бераз читкә барып утырып егъладым да, соңра, җәрәхәткә балчык сибеп, янә хезмәтемә дәвам иттем; ләкин бу юлы аяклар никадәр туңсалар да, балчыкка күмәргә курыктым.

«Моны ни өчен яздың?» — диерләр.

Ни өчен языйм? Шул вакытта аягым бик авыртканга вә хәзер дә аякта шул җәрәхәтнең эзе булганга тоттым да яздым.

Бара торгач бакча эшләре дә бетте.

Беркөнне кич белән әти белән әни иртәгә иртүк мине абыстайга укырга илтәчәкләрен миңа мәгълүм иттеләр.

Таң атты; кояш чыкмас борын ук торып чәй эчтек. Чәйне җыештыргач, әни мине кулымнан җитәкләде дә үземездән биш-алты гына адым булган Фәтхерахман хәзрәт өенә алып барды.

Анда барып кердек. Мине укытачак абыстай кулына чыбык тотып утырган, аның тирә-ягында, минем яшемдәге кечкенә кыз балалар күп булганы кеби, шактый җитеп килә торган кызлар да бар иде. Алар арасында, богъдай арасындагы берничә борчаклар кеби, берничә минем шикелле ир балалар да бар иде.

Әни иң элек ике бөтен икмәк илә бер тиенме, ике тиенме акчасын абыстайга тоттыргач, алар да, бөтен шәкертләр дә бик озак дога кыйлдык.

Әни мине тапшырып, үзе киткәч, мин кызлар белән бергә «әлеп, пи, ти, си, җымыкый»ны, бер дә тарланмыйча, кычкырып укый башладым.
Шул рәвешчә «әлеп, пи, ти, си»не берничә көн такмаклагач, миңа «Иман шарт» та тоттырдылар.

Бу «Иман шарт»ының иҗеге белән сүрәсе&lt;ref&gt;Иҗеге белән сүрәсе — хәрефләрне иҗекләп һәм аңлатмалары белән өйрәнү.&lt;/ref&gt; миңа кыш буена җитте бугай. Мин бу кышта һаман шул кыска гына «Иман шарт» тирәсендә әйләнүдән уза алмадым.

Фәкать, «Иман шарт» бетерүгә гыйлавә&lt;ref&gt;Гыйлавә — өстәмә.&lt;/ref&gt; уларак, бервакыт абыстай өйдә юк вакытта, бәгъзе&lt;ref&gt;Бәгъзве — айбер.&lt;/ref&gt; шаян кызларның. «Кәлимәтен таййибәтен, безнең әни бай катын, изүе тулы тәңкә, борыны тулы…» дигән сүзләрен ишеттем.

Ишетелмәгән сүз вә күрелмәгән нәрсә һәрберсе гыйлем булганлыктан, табигый, мин дә бу сүзне яратып отып алдым, һәм шуны үземнән надан малайлар каршында тәкрарлап, аларны көлдереп йөрер булдым.

Ишетелмәгән сүз вә күрелмәгән нәрсә һәрберсе гыйлем булганлыктан, табигый, мин дә бу сүзне яратып отып алдым, һәм шуны үземнән надан малайлар каршында тәкрарлап, аларны көлдереп йөрер булдым.

ཉི་མ་གསལ་བར་ཤོག ། འགྲོ་ཀུན་སྡུག་བསྔལ་ཚ་བའི་གདུང་རྣམས་ལ། །ཐུགས་རྗེའི་བསལ་བའི་ཟླ་ཟེར་འཛགས་པ་དང་། །དེ་བཞིན་འཕགས་པའི་ནོར་གྱི་དབུལ་ཕོང་
རྣམས། །ཡོན་ཏན་བྱང་ཆུབ་ཡིད་བཞིན་གོ་ཐོབ་ཤོག ། མདོར་ན་ནམ་མཁའི་མཐར་ཐུག་ཕ་མ་འགྲོ། རེ་རེའི་མདུན་དུ་གང་འདོད་ཡོ་བྱད་དང་། །སྡུག་བསྔལ་ཀུན་སེལ་
སྤྲུལ་པའི་སྟོན་པ་མཆོག །གྲངས་མེད་བསམ་གྱི་མི་ཁྱབ་སྦྲུལ་བྱས་ནས། །གནས་སྐབས་སྡུག་བསྔལ་ཀུན་བསལ་བདེ་ལ་བཀོད། མཐར་ཐུག་ཁམས་གསུམ་འཁོར་བ་དོང་&lt;noinclude&gt;&lt;/noinclude&gt;</text>
