- Hello, Barkeep49! The Community Tech team has posted an April update to the Watchlist Expiry project, and we would love your feedback. The update includes new mockups, which show how users can determine watch status when viewing/editing watched pages or the watchlist. We invite you to check out the update and share your feedback on the project talk page. Thank you! --IFried (WMF) (talk) 19:29, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
Community Wishlist Survey 2021: Invitation[edit]
The 2021 Community Wishlist Survey is now open! This survey is the process where communities decide what the Community Tech team should work on over the next year. We encourage everyone to submit proposals until the deadline on 30 November, or comment on other proposals to help make them better. The communities will vote on the proposals between 8 December and 21 December.
The Community Tech team is focused on tools for experienced Wikimedia editors. You can write proposals in any language, and we will translate them for you. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing your proposals!

Community Wishlist Survey 2021[edit]
We invite all registered users to vote on the 2021 Community Wishlist Survey. You can vote from now until 21 December for as many different wishes as you want.
In the Survey, wishes for new and improved tools for experienced editors are collected. After the voting, we will do our best to grant your wishes. We will start with the most popular ones.
We, the Community Tech, are one of the Wikimedia Foundation teams. We create and improve editing and wiki moderation tools. What we work on is decided based on results of the Community Wishlist Survey. Once a year, you can submit wishes. After two weeks, you can vote on the ones that you're most interested in. Next, we choose wishes from the survey to work on. Some of the wishes may be granted by volunteer developers or other teams.
We are waiting for your votes. Thank you!

DiscussionTools[edit]
Hi, Barkeep49,
The Editing team has scheduled a major update to mw:Extension:DiscussionTools (the new Reply tool) for next week's deployment train. Since you invoke the feature from a script (I do, too), you're probably going to see that update next week, before it's officially released in the mw:Beta Feature system. The new update will use a similar system for starting a ==New discussion==. As before, full-page wikitext editing will not be affected. There is more information on the project page at mw:Talk pages project/New discussion.
You don't need to do anything about this, but if you encounter problems next week, please ping me or leave a note on the talk page for the project. Thanks, Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 22:00, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Whatamidoing (WMF): thanks for the notice. I'm excited to get this new functionality. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- It should (if all goes well) appear on Thursday at enwiki, and here at Meta-Wiki on Wednesday. It won't be enabled for non-script-based users until the following week (again, if all goes well), so please be quick to report bugs. There will only be about 50 editors testing during those first few days, and if we find anything seriously wrong, the team will want to delay the release in Beta Features.
