{{workpage}} and {{AfC submission}}
With the new request at Wikipedia:Edit filter/Requested for {{AfC submission}} I was wondering if your bot would add the AfC submission banner to pages marked {{workpage}} sitting in DRAFTspace ? These pages shouldn't be going through AfC if they are a draft revision or collection of draft paragraphs to be integrated into an articlespace page. I would expect it might be difficult to remove an AfC banner on such a page should the new editfilter be implemented, when it isn't a draft article but a workpage. -- 64.229.90.32 (talk) 07:44, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- 64.229.90.32, I think it will. I'll add it to the template blacklist if the edit filter goes through (please ping me in case I forget). — Qwerfjkltalk 15:55, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks -- 64.229.90.32 (talk) 20:49, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
Tech News: 2024-27
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- Over the next three weeks, dark mode will become available for all users, both logged-in and logged-out, starting with the mobile web version. This fulfils one of the 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 the latest Web team update. [1]
- Logged-in users can now set 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. [2]
- 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 CSS features and to send less code to all readers. [3][4]
- Wikipedia Admins can customize local wiki configuration options easily using 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 Growth features on their home wikis, in order to better recruit and retain new editors. More options will be provided in the coming months. [5]
- Editors interested in language issues that are related to Unicode standards, can now discuss those topics at a new conversation space in MediaWiki.org. The Wikimedia Foundation is now a 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 Wikipedia in Mandailing (
w:btm:) [6]
Problems
- Editors can once again click on links within the visual editor's citation-preview, thanks to a bug fix by the Editing Team. [7]
