Tech News: 2024-48

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Updates for editors

• A new version of the standard wikitext editor-mode syntax highlighter will be available as a beta feature later this week. This brings many new features and bug fixes, including right-to-left support, template folding, autocompletion, and an improved search panel. You can learn more on the help page.
• The 2010 wikitext editor now supports common keyboard shortcuts such Ctrl+B for bold and Ctrl+I for italics. A full list of all six shortcuts is available. Thanks to SD0001 for this improvement. [1]
• Starting November 28, Flow/Structured Discussions pages will be automatically archived and set to read-only at the following wikis: bswiki, elwiki, euwiki, fawiki, fiwiki, frwikiquote, frwikisource, frwikiversity, frwikivoyage, idwiki, lvwiki, plwiki, ptwiki, urwiki, viwikisource, zhwikisource. This is done as part of StructuredDiscussions deprecation work. If you need any assistance to archive your page in advance, please contact Trizek (WMF).
• View all 25 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a user creating a new AbuseFilter can now only set the filter to "protected" if it includes a protected variable.

Updates for technical contributors

• The CodeEditor, which can be used in JavaScript, CSS, JSON, and Lua pages, now offers live autocompletion. Thanks to SD0001 for this improvement. The feature can be temporarily disabled on a page by pressing Ctrl+, and un-selecting "Live Autocompletion".
• Tool-maintainers who use the Graphite system for tracking metrics, need to migrate to the newer Prometheus system. They can check this dashboard and the list in the Description of the task T350592 to see if their tools are listed, and they should claim metrics and dashboards connected to their tools. They can then disable or migrate all existing metrics by following the instructions in the task. The Graphite service will become read-only in April. [2]
• The New PreProcessor parser performance report has been fixed to give an accurate count for the number of Wikibase entities accessed. It had previously been resetting after 400 entities. [3]

Meetings and events

• A Language community meeting will take place November 29 at 16:00 UTC. There will be presentations on topics like developing language keyboards, the creation of the Mooré Wikipedia, the language support track at Wiki Indaba, and a report from the Wayuunaiki community on their experiences with the Incubator and as a new community over the last 3 years. This meeting will be in English and will also have Spanish interpretation.

Tech News: 2024-49

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Updates for editors

• Two new parser functions were added this week. The {{#interwikilink}} function adds an interwiki link and the {{#interlanguagelink}} function adds an interlanguage link. These parser functions are useful on wikis where namespaces conflict with interwiki prefixes. For example, links beginning with MOS: on English Wikipedia conflict with the mos 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 HTTPS Browser Recommendations page for more-detailed information. All modern operating systems and browsers are always able to reach Wikimedia projects. [4]
• Starting December 16, Flow/Structured Discussions pages will be automatically archived and set to read-only at the following wikis: arwiki, cawiki, frwiki, mediawikiwiki, orwiki, wawiki, wawiktionary, wikidatawiki, zhwiki. This is done as part of StructuredDiscussions deprecation work. If you need any assistance to archive your page in advance, please contact Trizek (WMF). [5]
• 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 on Testwiki and read the November project update for more details.
• View all 23 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a bug with the "Download as PDF" system was fixed. [6]

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 this list. In addition, review the updated documentation to learn how to adjust the tools. Join the discussions on the project talk page or in the dedicated thread on the Wikimedia Community Discord server (in English) for support and to share feedback.

English Wikinews will upgrade its license to CC-BY-4.0 - will you join us? / Wikinews en inglés actualizará su licencia a CC-BY-4.0 - ¿te unirás a nosotros?

English Wikinews has finally completed the discussions about a license upgrade and will upgrade to CC-BY-4.0, effective for all edits made from December 16, 2024. You can read about it at en:Wikinews:2024 Copyright license upgrade.

All Wikinews projects manage their processes internally and independently of English Wikinews, but on English Wikinews, we hope that you will also change your license so we can continue to share articles across the different versions of Wikinews.

Arabic Wikinews already upgraded in August 2024, but they chose CC-BY-SA-4.0 (ShareAlike). We know that other Wikinews projects would also like to change.

To complete the change, each Wikinews project needs to file a request on Phabricator. We made one for English Wikinews at Phab:T381421.

If your wiki have already decided to change the license you can also make a request or we can try to add your wiki to the request so the changes can take place at the same time.

If your wiki have not yet decided it is still possible to change the license. But your wiki needs to have a discussion about it.

To coordinate the license change, we need to know if your wiki has already decided or has an existing vote, so please either leave a message here with a link to the vote/result (and ping me please) or add it directly at en:Wikinews:2024_Copyright_license_upgrade/other-Wikinews#Results_all_Wikinews_projects. Even if the result is that you will not upgrade, we would really appreciate knowing.

Wikinews en inglés finalmente ha completado las discusiones sobre una actualización de licencia y actualizará a CC-BY-4.0, efectiva para todas las ediciones realizadas a partir del 16 de diciembre de 2024. Puedes leer más sobre esto en en:Wikinews:2024 Copyright license upgrade.

Todos los proyectos de Wikinews gestionan sus procesos internamente e independientemente de Wikinews en inglés, pero en Wikinews en inglés esperamos que también cambies tu licencia para que podamos seguir compartiendo artículos entre las diferentes versiones de Wikinews.

Wikinews en árabe ya actualizó en agosto de 2024, pero eligieron CC-BY-SA-4.0 (ShareAlike). Sabemos que otros proyectos de Wikinews también querrían cambiar. Para completar el cambio, cada proyecto de Wikinews necesita presentar una solicitud en Phabricator. Hicimos una para Wikinews en inglés en Phab:T381421.

Si tu wiki ya ha decidido cambiar la licencia, también puedes hacer una solicitud o podemos intentar agregar tu wiki a la solicitud para que los cambios puedan realizarse al mismo tiempo.

Si tu wiki aún no ha decidido, todavía es posible cambiar la licencia. Pero tu wiki necesita tener una discusión al respecto.

Para coordinar el cambio de licencia, necesitamos saber si tu wiki ya ha decidido o tiene una votación existente, así que por favor deja un mensaje aquí con un enlace a la votación/resultado (y por favor hazme ping) o agrégalo directamente en en:Wikinews:2024_Copyright_license_upgrade/other-Wikinews#Results_all_Wikinews_projects. Incluso si el resultado es que no actualizarás, realmente agradeceríamos saberlo. MGA73 (discusión) 17:47 4 dic 2024 (UTC)
