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

  • The old note-taking site (Etherpad) was removed on December 30, 2013. You can see most of the documents on the new site. [12]

Problems

  • On January 2, Wikimedia Commons, Wikidata and all Wikivoyage projects were broken for 2 hours due to language cache update issues.
  • On the same day, it was not possible to edit most wikis for about 30 minutes, due to a database replication problem.

Future software changes

  • Spanish, French, Portuguese and Russian Wikipedia users will also be able to enable CirrusSearch in their Beta Features options. [14]
  • Plural form rules for some languages will be changed. Many translations of the user interface for Belarusian, Russian, Serbian, Ukrainian and other languages will need to be changed. [15] [16] [17]
  • You will see a warning when you try to delete a page linked to from other pages. [18] [19]
  • You will be able to hide redirect pages on the list of protected pages. [20] [21]
  • You will be able to use keyboard shortcuts in the Translate tool, by pressing Alt+1 and similar key groups. [22] [23]
  • E-mails sent by MediaWiki will include the name of the site in their From: line. You will be able to change this name on your wiki by editing the MediaWiki:Emailsender page. [24] [25]

Recent software changes

VisualEditor news

  • In the toolbar, the menu to edit the styles (like bold, italic, etc.) now has a down arrow (  ). The order of the Insert menu has also changed a little.
  • You can now edit <gallery /> tags with a very basic tool. [45]

  • When you edit templates, you will now see the parameters in the right order. The ones that you must add have a star (*). [48] [49]

  • Your wiki can ask to test a new tool to edit TemplateData. [51]

Problems

  • There were "pool timeouts" errors on several wikis on January 13; it was caused by a code change that was made to fix another problem. [53]

Future software changes
