Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Letzte Änderungen
- The Starter kit is now available for wiki communities. This page lists technical resources, tools, and recommendations. These are essential to operate a wiki project. This is mostly useful for smaller wikis where the community has limited experience with this. [1]
- The first features of the Desktop Improvements project are available for logged-in users on all wikis. In order to use them, uncheck Use Legacy Vector in your local or global preferences in section Skin preferences. More improvements are planned. Feedback is welcome.
- On multiple wikis, a UTCLiveClock gadget is available. For wikis that import the gadget directly from mediawiki.org, end users can now choose a different timezone to show instead of UTC.
Probleme
- The deployment train for MediaWiki has been blocked this week. [2][3]
- Translation Notification Bot was sending the same message multiple times to every translator. This has been fixed. [4]
- Einige Benutzer erhielten dieselbe Benachrichtigung mehrmals. Dies wurde behoben. [5]
Anstehende Änderungen im Verlauf der Woche
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 Juli. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 Juli. It will be on all wikis from 30 Juli (calendar).
