• Tool of the week
  • Cersei - is a tool designed for importing or scraping data from various third-party sources, using source-specific Python code. It can use a "headless browser" to scrape complicated websites that rely on eg JavaScript to navigate. It can therefore access data sources that can not be accessed via eg Mix'n'match. The data from sources can be updated regularly, either for everything, or just changed entries (if the source has a "recent changes" equivalent).
  • Wikidata:Zotero/Cita - is a Wikidata addon for Zotero that adds citations (i.e., what other items an item cites) metadata support to this open source reference management software, using cites work (P2860) information available from Wikidata, and enabling users to easily contribute missing data.

Wikidata weekly summary #611

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

Discussions

• New request for comments: Community request for the development team to access inverse properties on client wikis. (Summary: We currently cannot access inverse property values on Wikipedia. This can be a data management issue on Wikipedia as we must always ask ourself if we must introduce an inverse property for cases where we need them. So I think it’s useful to gather the usecases community would want and draft a request for an API to the devteam to do that.)

Events

• Upcoming: The next Wikidata+Wikibase office hours will take place on Wednesday, 16:00 UTC on Wednesday, 17th January 2024 (18:00 Berlin time) in the Wikidata Telegram group.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-03

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Ostatnie zmiany

• Strony o modelu zawartości JSON będą teraz wykorzystywać znaki tabulacji zamiast spacji do robienia wcięć. Znacząco ograniczy to rozmiar stron. [19]
• Gadżety i skrypty użytkowników mogą teraz wykorzystywać nowszą składnię JavaScript, wprowadzoną w ES6 (znane też jako „ES2015”) oraz w ES7 (również „ES2016”). MediaWiki dokonuje walidacji kodu źródłowego, aby chronić resztę funkcjonalności strony przed błędami składniowymi oraz by upewnić się, że skrypty będą poprawnie zinterpretowane we wszystkich wspieranych przeglądarkach. Wcześniej, gadżety mogły jawnie ustawiać opcję requiresES6. Nie jest to już konieczne, a opcja ta zostanie usunięta w przyszłości. [20]
• Hasła botów oraz konsumenci OAuth typu owner-only mogą być teraz ograniczane do edytowania wyłącznie określonych stron. [21]
• Można teraz dziękować botom za ich edycje. [22]
• Opublikowano komunikat w sprawie Badania Życzeń Społeczności 2024. Zapraszamy do przeczytania i podzielenia się swoją opinią.

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 16 stycznia, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 17 stycznia, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 18 stycznia (harmonogram). [23][24]
• Od 17 stycznia, nie będzie możliwe logowanie się na wiki Wikimedia z niektórych starszych wersji przeglądarki Chrome (wersje 51–66, wydane w latach 2016–2018). Ponadto, użytkownicy iOS 12 i Safari na macOS 10.14 będą musieli się logować na każdą wiki oddzielnie. [25]
• W zeszłym roku moduł jquery.cookie został uznany za przestarzały i zastąpiony przez mediawiki.cookie. Ostatnio uruchomiono skrypt, który zastąpił wszystkie istniejące do tej pory wywołania starszego modułu. W tym tygodniu usunięty zostanie tymczasowy alias. [26]

Przyszłe zmiany

• Wikimedia Deutschland pracuje nad ułatwieniem ponownego wykorzystania przypisów. Poszukują ludzi, którzy chcieliby wziąć udział w indywidualnych rozmowach wideo w celu badania doświadczeń użytkowników w styczniu i lutym.

• Strony historii na urządzeniach mobilnych korzystają teraz z tego samego kodu HTML, co na komputerach. Jeśli zauważycie jakieś problemy z zachowaniem tych stron na telefonach, dajcie znać w zadaniu na Phabricatorze.
• Na większości wiki administratorzy mogą teraz blokować użytkownikom wykonywanie konkretnych działań. Należą do nich: przesyłanie plików, tworzenie stron, przenoszenie stron (tj. zmiana nazwy) oraz przesyłanie podziękowań. Celem tej zmiany jest umożliwienie administratorom podejmowania działań adekwatnych do aktywności blokowanego użytkownika. Dowiedz się więcej o blokowaniu wybranych działań. [35][36]

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 6 lutego, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 7 lutego, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 8 lutego (harmonogram). [37][38]
• Linki do komentarzy na stronach dyskusji nie działały, jeśli zawierały znaki diakrytyczne lub spoza alfabetu łacińskiego. Zostało to naprawione. [39]

Przyszłe zmiany

• Zachęcamy 24 Wikipedie, które korzystają z Reference Tooltips jako domyślnego gadżetu, do tego by ustawiły go jako niedomyślny. Spowoduje to, że u użytkowników tę rolę przejmie Podgląd przypisów, co doprowadzi do większej spójności z oprogramowaniem i między wiki. Taka zmiana została też zaplanowana dla 46 Wikipedii, na których jest mniej niż 4 administratorów interfejsu, i zostanie wykonana w połowie lutego, pod warunkiem że nie zostaną zgłoszone zastrzeżenia. Gadżet Reference Tooltips nadal będzie użyteczny, jeśli jest dostępny na waszej wiki i włączycie go u siebie w preferencjach. [40][41]

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-09

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Ostatnie zmiany

• Mobilny edytor wizualny jest teraz (na małej grupie wiki) domyślnym edytorem dla osób, które wcześniej nie edytowały. Badania wskazują, że osoby korzystające z tego edytora publikują większy odsetek rozpoczętych przez siebie edycji, ale są też idzie im trochę gorzej w zapisywaniu niewycofanych edycji. Ci użytkownicy, którzy wybrali edytor wikikodu jako domyślny na komputerach, przy pierwszej edycji mobilnej również zobaczą edytor wikikodu. [56]
• Pole wgGlobalGroups w mw.config zawiera teraz tylko grupy aktywne na danej wiki. Skrypty nie będą już musiały wykonywać żądania API, aby sprawdzić czy dana grupa globalna ma zastosowanie na wiki. Wystarczy przykładowy kod: if (/globalgroupname/.test(mw.config.get("wgGlobalGroups"))). [57]

Zmiany nadchodzące w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 27 lutego, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 28 lutego, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 29 lutego (harmonogram). [58][59]

Przyszłe zmiany

• Uprawnienie do zmiany znaczników (changetags) przypisanych do edycji będzie odebrane użytkownikom wiki Wikimedia. Domyślnie będą je nadal posiadać administratorzy i boty. Wasza społeczność może poprosić o zachowanie dotychczasowej konfiguracji zanim zmiana zostanie wprowadzona. W takiej sytuacji prosimy o komentarz w zadaniu na Phabricatorze przez końcem marca 2024.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-10

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Ostatnie zmiany

• Strona Special:Book (oraz powiązana funkcjonalność „Utwórz książkę”), dostarczana przez stare rozszerzenie Collection, została usunięta ze wszystkich Wikiźródeł, ponieważ i tak nie działała. Nie wpływa to ma możliwość pobrania książek, zapewnianą przez rozszerzenie Wikisource. [60]
• Wikitech korzysta teraz domyślnie z nowego parsera wikikodu – Parsoida – do przygotowywania stron w przestrzeni dyskusji. Wszelkie problemy możecie zgłaszać na odpowiedniej stronie dyskusji. Możecie wykorzystać rozszerzenie ParserMigration, aby sterować wykorzystaniem Parsoida. Więcej informacji zawarto w dokumentacji.
• Prace utrzymaniowe nad Etherpadem zakończyły się. W razie napotkania problemów, możecie je zgłosić w tym zadaniu.
• Gadżety pozwalają administratorom interfejsu tworzyć nowe narzędzia, bazujące na CSS i JavaScripcie. Powiązane z nimi przestrzenie nazw Gadżet i Definicja gadżetu, a także uprawnienie gadgets-definition-edit, zostały zarezerwowane w 2015 roku, ale nigdy nie były wykorzystywane. Ich istnienie można było zauważyć na stronach Specjalna:Szukaj i Specjalna:Grupy użytkowników. Wspomniane przestrzenie nazw i uprawnienie zostały skasowane. Żadnych stron nie przeniesiono, nie są też wymagane inne zmiany. [61]
• Aby zwiększyć użyteczność okienka „Dodaj przypis”, przycisk do wstawienia przypisu przeniesiono do nagłówka panelu. [62]

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 5 marca, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 6 marca, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 7 marca (harmonogram). [63][64]

Przyszłe zmiany

• Wszystkie wiki będą dostępne w trybie tylko do odczytu przez kilka minut 20 marca. Zdarzy się to o 14:00 UTC. Więcej informacji zostanie opublikowanych w Tech News i w kolejnych tygodniach będzie też umieszczane na poszczególnych wiki. [65]
• Kod HTML nagłówków i linków edycji sekcji zostanie zmieniony później w tym roku, aby poprawić dostępność. Zobacz stronę Zmiany HTML w nagłówkach, aby poznać szczegóły. Nowa struktura będzie taka sama, jak w wyjściu z Parsoida. Możesz testować swoje gadżety i style na nowej strukturze, jak dodasz do adresu URL parametr ?useparsoid=1 (więcej szczegółów) albo włączysz wyświetlanie stron z użyciem Parsoida w swoich preferencjach (więcej informacji).

However, the popups will be hidden even if information has indeed been entered. If you accidentally close the page before saving the structured data you entered, that data will be lost. [70]

Przyszłe zmiany

• Wszystkie wiki będą w trybie tylko do odczytu 20 marca. Jest to zaplanowane na godzinę 14:00 UTC. Więcej informacji zostanie podanych w nadchodzących tygodniach w Tech News i umieszczonych na poszczególnych wiki. [71][72]

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-16

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Problemy

• Pomiędzy 2 a 8 kwietnia, na wiki korzystających z wersji oznaczonych, znacznik „Wycofane” nie był dodawany do wycofanych edycji. Dodatkowo, przenosiny, zabezpieczenia stron i importowanie wersji nie były automatycznie oznaczane jako przejrzane. Ten problem został rozwiązany. [95][96]

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 16 kwietnia, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 17 kwietnia, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 18 kwietnia (harmonogram). [97][98]
• Domyślne klucze sortowania strony w kategoriach będą teraz również wpływały na sortowanie w tych kategoriach, które zostały dodane wewnątrz przypisów. Wcześniej takie kategorie stosowały tytuł strony jako klucz sortowania, nawet jeśli określono na stronie klucz domyślny (klucze specyficzne dla konkretnej kategorii działały poprawnie). [99]
• Nowa zmienna page_last_edit_age zostanie dodana do filtrów nadużyć. Określa ona, ile sekund upłynęło od ostatniej edycji na danej stronie. [100]

Przyszłe zmiany

• Prosimy wolontariuszy-deweloperów o aktualizację swoich narzędzi, aby poprawnie obsługiwały konta tymczasowe. Dowiedz się więcej.
• Cztery pola zostaną usunięte z tabel w replikach bazy danych (w tym z Quarry). Dotyczy to wyłącznie tabel abuse_filter i abuse_filter_history. Niektóre zapytania mogą wymagać aktualizacji. [101]

Ostatnie zmiany

• Począwszy od tego tygodnia, nowicjusze edytujący Wikipedię będą zachęcani do wypróbowania zadań strukturyzowanych. Wykazano, że podnoszą one aktywność i retencję nowicjuszy. [102]
• Możecie nominować swoje ulubione narzędzia do piątej edycji konkursu Coolest Tool Award. Zgłoszeń można dokonywać do 10 maja.

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 23 kwietnia, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 24 kwietnia, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 25 kwietnia (harmonogram). [103][104]

Przyszłe zmiany

Growth News, April 2024

Od teraz zespół Growth będzie wysyłał aktualności co kwartał. Jeżeli chcesz być na bieżąco z naszymi pracami, możesz śledzić nasze cotygodniowe wiadomości.

Jeżeli chcesz otrzymywać informacje o aktywnościach w zakresie ogólnych technikaliów w Wikimedia (wraz z pracami Growth), subskrybuj Tech News.

Konfigurowanie przez społeczność

Obecnie funkcje od Growth można konfigurować na Special:EditGrowthConfig. W tym kwartale będziemy pracować nad tym, aby moduł Konfigurowanie przez społeczność był dostępny także dla innych programistów MediaWiki, wraz z przeniesieniem dotychczasowego mechanizmu konfigurowania Growth do nowego rozszerzenia CommunityConfiguration.

Wstępną wersję Konfigurowania przez społeczność można testować na Spanish Beta Wikipedia. Zamierzamy wydać nowe rozszerzenie Community Configuration na wiki pilotażowe (Wikipedia arabskojęzyczna i hiszpańskojęzyczna) na początku maja 2024. Z kolei pierwszym zespołem poza Growth, który wykorzysta Community Configuration, będzie ten pracujący nad narzędziem Automoderator.

Wraz z rozwojem, zespół Growth zaproponuje wytyczne dotyczące korzystania z Konfigurowania przez społeczność, wytyczne w zakresie projektowania Konfigurowania przez społeczność oraz zapewni dokumentację techniczną.

Wyniki badań

Wyniki analizy użycia funkcji Dodaj ilustrację Zespół Growth przeprowadził badanie mające na celu ocenić wpływ zadania strukturyzowanego “Dodaj ilustrację” z modułu "sugerowane edycje" ze strony domowej dla nowicjuszy. Analiza wykazała, że to zadanie spowodowało zwiększenie udziału nowicjuszy korzystających z wersji mobilnej, głównie przez wykonywanie konstruktywnych (nie wycofanych) edycji artykułów:

• Prawdopodobieństwo, że nowicjusze korzystający z wersji mobilnej dokonają swojej pierwszej edycji artykułu (+17,0% w stosunku do wartości bazowej)
• Prawdopodobieństwo utrzymania ich jako nowicjuszy (+24,3% w stosunku do wartości bazowej)
• Liczba edycji dokonanych w ciągu pierwszych dwóch tygodni na wiki (+21,8% w porównaniu z wartością bazową)
• Niższe prawdopodobieństwo wycofania edycji nowicjuszy (-3.3% w stosunku do wartości bazowej)

Wyniki eksperymentu ze spersonalizowaną pochwałą

Ta funkcja została stworzona dla Przewodników jako część projektu Pozytywne wsparcie zespołu od Growth. Podczas testów A/B na hiszpańskojęzycznej Wikipedii odkryliśmy, że nie wpłynęło to na zatrzymanie nowicjuszy na dłużej, ale znaczny pozytywny wpływ na produktywność nowicjuszy. Mimo to wywnioskowaliśmy, że te wyniki nie są na tyle optymistyczne, aby wyrównywały czas poświęcany przez mentorów. Planujemy przedyskutować o tej funkcji z naszymi wiki pilotażowymi oraz rozważyć dalsze ulepszenia zanim rozszerzymy zakres jej działania. W międzyczasie wiki, które chcą testować te funkcję mogą prosić o jej włączenie. (T361763)

Zachęcanie anglojęzycznych darczyńców to podjęcia próby edycji

Podobnie jak w latach poprzednich, darczyńcy byli kierowani do strony z podziękowaniem po dokonaniu wpłaty (przykład). Jednakże w tym roku przetestowaliśmy wezwanie do działania “Spróbuj swoich sił w edytowaniu Wikipedii,” na stronie z podziękowaniami. To przesłanie zawierało link do specjalnie zmienionego formularza rejestracyjnego. Umożliwiło nam to śledzenie rejestracją i włączanie się do aktywności (wykonywanie pierwszych edycji). Podczas anglojęzycznej kampanii bannerowej, strona z podziękowaniami dla darczyńców skutkowała utworzeniem 4398 nowych kont, z czego 441 zaczęła edytować konstruktywnie w ciągu 24 godzin. (T352900)

Dalsze prace

Plan roczny

W nadchodzącym roku finansowym Zespoły Growth i Editing będą pracować nad kluczowym rezultatem WE1.2. Wkrótce zaczniemy pierwsze dyskusje ze społecznościami, które pomogą nam w realizacji tych planów. (T361657)

Moduł aktualności społeczności na stronie domowej dla nowicjuszy

Planujemy przeprowadzić test A/B związany z dodaniem nowego modułu na stronę domową dla nowicjuszy, konfigurowalnego przez społeczność, który pozwoli społeczności wyróżnić wybrane wydarzenia, projekty, kampanie i inicjatywy. Jesteśmy na wczesnym etapie projektowania. Najpierw zostanie wdrożony on na wiki pilotażowe i inne chętne do testowania. Zapraszamy do zgłaszania sugestii dotyczących projektów i planów, w dowolnym języku, na stronie dyskusji.

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Ostatnie zmiany

Przykładowy wygląd strony dyskusji po zmianach (po francusku).

• Wygląd stron dyskusji zmienił się na następujących wiki: Wikipedia w języku azerskim, Wikipedia w języku bengalskim, Wikipedia w języku niemieckim, Wikipedia w języku perskim, Wikipedia w języku hebrajskim, Wikipedia w języku hindi, Wikipedia w języku indonezyjskim, Wikipedia w języku koreańskim, Wikipedia w języku niderlandzkim, Wikipedia w języku portugalskim, Wikipedia w języku rumuńskim, Wikipedia w języku tajskim, Wikipedia w języku tureckim, Wikipedia w języku ukraińskim, Wikipedia w języku wietnamskim. Brały one udział w eksperymencie, gdzie 50% użytkowników widziało nową wersję. Ze względu na pozytywne rezultaty, nowy wygląd zostanie udostępniony wszystkim użytkownikom tych wiki. Można z niego zrezygnować w preferencjach („Pokaż aktywność wątków dyskusji”). Wdrożenie nastąpi w nadchodzących tygodniach. [106]
• Siedem nowych wiki zostało utworzonych:
  • Wikipedia po batawsku (w:bew:) [107]
  • Wikipedia w języku kusaal (w:kus:) [108]
  • Wikipedia w języku igala (w:igl:) [109]
  • Wikisłownik po karakałpacku (wikt:kaa:) [110]
  • Wikiźródła po birmańsku (s:my:) [111]
  • Wikiźródła po malajsku (s:ms:) [112]
  • Wikiźródła po gruzińsku (s:ka:) [113]
• Można teraz obserwować grupy komunikatów/projekty na Translatewiki.net. Początkowo dostępne będą powiadomienia o dodaniu i usunięciu komunikatów w tych grupach. [114]
• Tryb ciemny jest teraz dostępny na wszystkich wiki, w wersji mobilnej dla zalogowanych użytkowników, którzy włączyli tryb zaawansowany. Jest to dopiero wczesna wersja tej funkcji. Prosimy osoby techniczne o sprawdzenie problemów z dostępnością na wiki. Zobacz więcej szczegółów.

Problemy

• Mapy Kartographer mogą wykorzystywać alternatywny wygląd bez etykiet, korzystając z mapstyle="osm". Nie działało to w podglądzie, co mogło powodować mylne wrażenie, że funkcja ta nie jest wspierana. Naprawiono to. [115]

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 30 kwietnia, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 1 maja, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 2 maja (harmonogram). [116][117]

Ostatnie zmiany

Przykładowy wygląd strony dyskusji po zmianach (po francusku).

• Wygląd stron dyskusji zmienił się na wszystkich wiki, oprócz Commons, Wikidanych i większość Wikipedii (kilka już wcześniej otrzymało tę zmianę). Więcej informacji o zmianach znajduje się na Diffie. Jest możliwe, by zrezygnować z nowego wyglądu stron dyskusji, w tym celu należy udać się do preferencji i przełączyć opcję „Pokaż aktywność wątków dyskusji”. Na pozostałych wiki wdrożenie odbędzie się w nadchodzących tygodniach. [118][119]
• Administratorzy interfejsu mają teraz większą kontrolę nad stylami komponentów w wersji mobilnej. Dzięki wprowadzeniu rozszerzenia SiteAdminHelper, część wbudowanych stylów będzie mogła zostać wyłączona. Więcej informacji znajduje się na stronie rozszerzenia. [120]
• Wikimedia Enterprise zawiera teraz również sekcje artykułu w odpowiedzi JSON oraz pole z krótkim opisem do istniejącego przeparsowanego infoboksu. Ta zmiana jest dostępna również w Wikimedia Cloud Services. [121]

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 7 maja, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 8 maja, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 9 maja (harmonogram). [122][123]
• Na stronie Specjalna:Rejestr pierwsza opcja do wyboru to „Wszystkie publiczne rejestry”. Ze względu na to, że pokazuje tylko część rejestrów, będzie się ona nazywać „Główne publiczne rejestry”. [124]

Przyszłe zmiany

• Nowa usługa zastąpi rozszerzenie Graph. Szczegóły są dostępne w najnowszym komunikacie o tym rozszerzeniu.
• Od 21 maja angielska i niemiecka Wikipedia będą mogły aktywować zadanie „Dodaj link”. Jest to częścią stopniowego wdrażania tego narzędzia na wszystkie Wikipedie. Społeczności mogą aktywować i skonfigurować tę funkcję lokalnie. [125]

Wikidata weekly summary #626

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
This is the Wikidata summary of the week before 2024-05-06.
Translations are available.

Discussions

• Reminder: the period for feedback on the Wikidata Query Service graph split ruleset closes on 15-May-2024. More information here!

Events

• The Wikimedia Hackathon 2024 took place in Tallinn, Estonia. Wikimedians from all over came together to hack on a huge variety of topics, including Wikidata and Wikibase topics. See the entire Program
• International Museum Day 2024 on Wikimedia: Take part in the translation, media, and data challenges!
• Registration for Wiki Workshop 2024 is now open! The event will be virtually held on *June 20, 12:00-18:30 UTC
• Coordinate Me 2024 is an international Wikidata competition taking place over the month of May. This year, the focus is on enriching or creating Wikidata items with the Property: Coordinate Location (P625). To participate, enroll on the dashboard to ensure your edits are tracked.

Press, articles, blog posts, videos

• Papers: MisgenderMender - A community-informed approach to interventions of misgendering.
• Videos
  • Intro to Wikidata Query Service - hosted by User:Gnoeee, this comprehensive video will equip newcomers to Wikidata with the skills to effectively start querying Wikidata.
  • Siobhan Leachman, NZ Citizen Scientist and Wikipedian - CitSciOz23 Keynote Speaker, this prolific editor discusses her passions and workflows for contributing and enriching Wikidata on topics as diverse as women scientists, scientific illustrators, artworks and citation data, moths and more.
  • WikiSearch from Wikibase Data - Wout Geveart shows how the WikiSearch extension is using Wikibase data to explore and visualise the data in new ways.

Tool of the week

• Wikidata periodic table - Tool by User:Ricordisamoa, to browse all chemical elements available on Wikidata, with atomic number, chemical symbol, and localized label. It also includes two charts of the nuclides, with links to every isotope in Wikidata, colored by half-life or decay mode.

Other Noteworthy Stuff

• A new UI mode is available for the online validator for EntitySchemas. It represents validation reports as a table rather than a very long string, and replaces most links with hyperlinks with some of the text behind them; making them easier to read. Currently being tested at https://shex-validator.toolforge.org/packages/shex-webapp/doc/shex-simple-improved.html, we are looking for participants to evaluate this tool. Some experience with editing Wikidata is appreciated, but no experience working with Schemas is required. If you are interested, you can sign up here. We hope to begin interviews around May 13.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-20

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Ostatnie zmiany

• Na Wikiźródłach istnieje strona specjalna, która zbiera strony bez odpowiadających im skanów. Od teraz można używać magicznego słowa __EXPECTWITHOUTSCANS__, aby powstrzymać niektóre strony (np. spisy wydań czy tłumaczeń) przed pojawianiem się na wspomnianej liście. [126]
• U osób korzystających z ustawienia „Pokazuj podgląd bez przeładowywania strony” funkcja „Podgląd strony z tym szablonem” również zadziała bez przeładowywania strony. [127]
• Mapy Kartographera mogą teraz mieć podany tekst alternatywny z użyciem atrybutu alt=. Działa to podobnie jak alt= w składni ilustracji i galerii. Nie dotyczy to wiki takich jak Wikipodróże, gdzie miniaturki map są interaktywne. [128]
• Stary samouczek, pokazujący „nowe filtry do przeglądania zmian” został usunięty. Utworzono go w 2017 roku, aby pokazać doświadczonym użytkownikom, jak zmienił się interfejs. Od tej pory zobaczyło go większość ludzi, do których był kierowany. [129]

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 14 maja, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 15 maja, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 16 maja (harmonogram). [130][131]
• Dla lepszej dostępności, strona Specjalna:Szukaj będzie korzystać teraz z układu CSS flex. Jeśli wasze gadżety wpływają na wyświetlanie wyników wyszukiwania, powinny zostać dostosowane do nowej struktury HTML tej strony. [132]

Przyszłe zmiany

• W skórce Wektor 2022, strony główne będą pokazywane na pełnej szerokości (podobnie jak strony specjalne). Dzięki temu liczba znaków w wierszu będzie lepsza. Jest to związane z nadchodzącymi zmianami w typografii w Wektorze 2022 Dowiedz się więcej. [133]
• Dwie kolumny tabeli pagelinks w bazie danych (pl_namespace i pl_title) zostaną niedługo skasowane. Użytkownicy powinni zamiast tego korzystać z dwóch kolumn tabeli linktarget (lt_namespace i lt_title). W istniejących zapytaniach SQL należy:
  1. zamienić JOIN pagelinks na JOIN linktarget i pl_ na lt_ w klauzuli ON
  2. dodać JOIN pagelinks ON lt_id = pl_target_id poniżej
  • Zobacz phab:T222224, aby poznać techniczne uzasadnienie. [134][135]

Ostatnie zmiany

• Masowe usuwanie będzie obsługiwało teraz również te strony, które zostały przeniesione pod inny tytuł. [136]
• Wprowadzono zmiany w Kreatorze przesyłania plików: poprawiono ogólny układ, dostosowując style i odstępy w formularzu i jego polach; poprawiono nagłówki i teksty pomocy dla poszczególnych pól; pole Podpis jest teraz obowiązkowe i jego treść może być skopiowana do opisu pliku. [137][138]

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 21 maja, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 22 maja, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 23 maja (harmonogram). [139][140]
• Struktura HTML wykorzystywana do wyświetlania nagłówków zostanie zmieniona, aby poprawić dostępność. Nastąpi to 22 maja w niektórych skórkach (Timeless, Nowoczesna – Modern, Błękit – CologneBlue, Nostalgia i Książka – Monobook). Prosimy o przetestowanie gadżetów w tych skórkach i o zgłaszanie powiązanych problemów, tak aby mogły być naprawione przed wdrożeniem tej zmiany do pozostałych skórek. Jest rozważane również wprowadzenie API do dodawania przycisków do tytułów sekcji, jeśli byłoby to pomocne twórcom gadżetów. Zapraszamy do podzielenia się opinią na ten temat.

• Nowe rozszerzenie Konfiguracji społeczności jest dostępne na testowej Wikipedii. Pozwala ono społeczności na dostosowanie konkretnych funkcji oprogramowania do ich lokalnych potrzeb.

• Funkcja eksperymentalna trybu ciemnego jest teraz dostępna na stronach kategorii i pomocy oraz na kolejnych stronach specjalnych. Mogą występować problemy z kontrastem. Prosimy o zgłaszanie błędów w dyskusji projektu. [159]

Problemy

• Wikimedia Cloud Services nie były dostępne przez 25 minut w zeszłym tygodniu. Było to spowodowane awarią kabla w centrum danych. [160]
• W zeszłym tygodniu wprowadzono zmiany stylistyczne w Wektorze 2022. Spowodowało to nieprzewidziane problemy z szablonami, komunikatami i obrazkami. Zmiany zostały wycofane lub poprawione. Jeśli nadal widzicie problemy, zgłoście je tutaj. [161]

Podczas testu na 11 wiki okazało się, że liczba przypisów wzrosła więcej niż dwukrotnie, gdy narzędzie zostało włączone u użytkowników. Funkcja ta może być konfigurowana przez społeczność. [164]
• Listy mailingowe będą niedostępne przez około dwie godziny we wtorek między 10:00 a 12:00 UTC. W tym czasie przeprowadzona zostanie migracja na nowszy serwer i aktualizacja oprogramowania. [165]

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-26

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Ostatnie zmiany

• W zeszłym tygodniu wprowadzono zmiany w kolorach wykorzystywanych w porównaniu zmian i różnicy rozmiaru strony w bajtach. Mają one poprawić czytelność tekstu, zarówno w trybie jasnym i ciemnym, i są częścią większego procesu podnoszenia dostępności. Możecie podzielić się opinią na stronie dyskusji projektu. [166]
• Kolory odwiedzonych, wskazanych i wciśniętych linków zostały również trochę zmienione, aby poprawić ich dostępność w trybie jasnym i ciemnym. [167]

Problemy

• Klikając na znacznik czasowy w komentarzu, można skopiować niezmienny link do niego. Ta funkcja nie zawsze działała, gdy tytuł wątku był długi, a z linku korzystano w wikikodzie. Zostało to poprawione. Dziękujemy Lofhi za zgłoszenie błędu. [168]

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• Nowa wersja MediaWiki będzie instalowana na wiki testowych i MediaWiki.org od 25 czerwca, na stronach innych niż Wikipedia i niektórych Wikipediach od 26 czerwca, a następnie na wszystkich wiki od 27 czerwca (harmonogram). [169][170]
• Od 26 czerwca znaczniki czasowe na wszystkich stronach dyskusji na angielskiej Wikipedii będą linkami do komentarza, w wyniku czego ta funkcja stanie się dostępna na wszystkich wiki. Linki do komentarzy pozwalają łatwo znaleźć konkretną wypowiedź, nawet wtedy, gdy została przeniesiona w inne miejsce. Więcej o tej funkcji można przeczytać na Diffie oraz na Mediawiki.org. [171]

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-27

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Ostatnie zmiany

• Tryb ciemny stanie się dostępny dla wszystkich (zalogowanych i niezalogowanych) w ciągu najbliższych trzech tygodni, poczynając od wersji mobilnej. Spełni się tym samym jedno z najbardziej pożądanych życzeń społeczności i pomoże to w korzystaniu z wiki w ciemnym otoczeniu. Użytkownicy będą mogli wyświetlać strony użytkowników oraz portale w trybie ciemnym. Więcej informacji w najnowszym komunikacie od zespołu Web. [172]
• Zalogowani użytkownicy mogą teraz ustawić globalną preferencje dla rozmiaru czcionki i trybu ciemnego. Stało się to dzięki połączonym wysiłkom zespołów w Fundacji. Pozwala to wikimedianom korzystać z wielu wiki przy spójnych doświadczeniach, np. przełączając tryby jednocześnie na wszystkich wiki. [173]
• Jeśli korzystasz z bardzo starej przeglądarki internetowej, niektóre funkcje mogą nie działać poprawnie na wiki Wikimedia. Dotyczy to Internet Explorera 11 oraz wersji Chrome, Firefoksa i Safari sprzed 2016. Pozwoli to na stosowanie nowszych funkcji CSS i poskutkuje wysyłaniem mniejszych arkuszy stylów do czytelników. [174][175]
• Administratorzy Wikipedii mogą dostosowywać lokalną konfigurację wiki z użyciem Konfiguracji społecznościowej. Została ona wprowadzona, aby pomóc społecznościom dostosowywać, jak działają pewne funkcje (bo każda wiki ma swoje unikatowe potrzeby). W tej chwili administratorzy mogą konfigurować funkcje Growth na swoich wiki, aby w lepszy sposób przyciągać i zatrzymywać nowicjuszy. Więcej opcji zostanie dodanych w najbliższych miesiącach. [176]
• Edytorzy zainteresowani kwestiami językowymi, związanymi ze standardami Unicode, mogą dyskutować o nich w nowej przestrzeni dyskusyjnej na MediaWiki.org. Fundacja Wikimedia jest teraz członkiem Konsorcjum Unicode, a grupa koordynująca może przyglądać się dyskutowanym kwestiom i zwracać na nie uwagę Konsorcjum, jeśli będzie to słuszne.
• Jedna nowa wiki została utworzona: Wikipedia w języku batak mandailing (w:btm:) [177]

Problemy

• Edytorzy mogą znowu klikać linki w podglądzie przypisu w edytorze wizualnym, dzięki poprawce wdrożonej przez zespół Editing. [178]

Przyszłe zmiany

• Prosimy o pomoc w poprawie jakości Tech News, poprzez wypełnienie tej krótkiej ankiety. Chcemy lepiej poznać potrzeby czytelników wiadomości technicznych. Ankieta będzie otwarta przez dwa tygodnie. Badanie jest objęte niniejszą deklaracją prywatności. Ankieta dostępna jest też w tłumaczeniu na wybrane języki.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-29

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Badanie Tech News

• Prosimy o pomoc w poprawie jakości Tech News, poprzez wypełnienie tej krótkiej ankiety. Chcemy lepiej poznać potrzeby czytelników wiadomości technicznych. Ankieta będzie otwarta jeszcze przez trzy dni. Badanie jest objęte niniejszą deklaracją prywatności. Ankieta dostępna jest też w tłumaczeniu na wybrane języki.

Ostatnie zmiany

• Deweloperzy Wikimedia mogą nadal oficjalnie używać zarówno Gerrita, jak i GitLaba. 24 czerwca Fundacja Wikimedia zdecydowała, że będzie dalej wspierać rozwój oprogramowania na obu platformach. Gerrit i GitLab to repozytoria kodu wykorzystywane przez programistów do tworzenia i przeglądania kodu, działającego w ramach MediaWiki oraz narzędzi autorstwa wolontariuszy. Ta decyzja ma na celu zachować produktywność programistów i nie dopuścić do pojawienia się problemów w procesie przeglądu kodu przez inne osoby. Więcej szczegółów dostępnych jest na stronie Migration status.
• Fundacja Wikimedia zaprasza chętnych do zgłaszania się do Komitetu doradczego Produktu i Technologii (Product and Techology Advisory Council, PTAC). Ta grupa, składająca się z edytorów technicznych i pracowników Fundacji Wikimedia, będzie razem współpracować, aby nasza platforma technologiczna była odporniejsza i lepiej przygotowana na przyszłe wyzwania. Członkowie komitetu ocenią aktywności techniczne w ruchu i będą mieli głos doradczy, abyśmy mogli lepiej budować wielopokoleniowe projekty. Poszukujemy edytorów technicznych z różnych zakątków Ziemi oraz z różnych projektów Wikimedia. Prosimy o zgłaszanie się tutaj do 10 sierpnia.
• Edytorzy z uprawnieniami do wycofywania zmian, którzy korzystają z aplikacji Wikipedia na Androida, mogą korzystać z nowych funkcji Edit Patrol. Zalicza się do nich nowy strumień ostatnich zmian, powiązane linki (takie jak cofnij i anuluj edycję) oraz biblioteka wiadomości w dyskusji, z których można skorzystać podczas patrolowania zmian. Jeśli chcecie, aby na waszej wiki te funkcje były dostępne również dla osób, które nie mają uprawnień do wycofywania, ale osiągną próg liczby edycji, możecie skontaktować się z zespołem. Więcej informacji o projekcie jest dostępnych we wpisie na blogu Diff.
• Edytorzy, którzy mają dostęp do Biblioteki Wikipedii, mogą znowu korzystać z treści w SpringerLinks, niepublikowanych w wolnym dostępie, ponieważ WMF skontaktowała się z nimi w tym celu. Możecie przeczytać więcej o tym i 21 innych zadaniach zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które wykonano w tym tygodniu.

Zmiany w tym tygodniu

• W tym tygodniu tryb ciemny zostanie udostępniony na wybranych Wikipediach, w wersjach komputerowej i mobilnej, dla zalogowanych i wylogowanych użytkowników. Zachęcamy administratorów interfejsu i osoby utrzymujące skrypty do poszukania zakodowanych na twardo kolorów i naprawy ich. Dostępne są rekomendacje dla zgodności z trybem ciemnym.

Przyszłe zmiany

• Zapraszamy osoby funkcyjne i utrzymujące narzędzia, aby testować konta tymczasowe na testwiki od przyszłego tygodnia. Konta tymczasowe podniosą prywatność wylogowanych użytkowników wiki. Nie ma na razie zaplanowanego wdrożenia tych kont na kolejne wiki. Prosimy o podzielenie się swoją opinią i zadawanie pytań w dyskusji projektu. [179]
• Edytorzy, którzy z poziomu edytora wgrywają pliki na Commons podczas edytowania artykułów, albo którzy uczą innych to robić, są zaproszeni do udziału w dyskusji na Commons. Społeczność dyskutuje nad ograniczeniem możliwości przesyłania plików w ten sposób wyłącznie do osób, które mają status automatycznie zatwierdzonych w Commons. Wynika to z dużej liczby plików naruszających prawa autorskie, które w ten sposób przesłano. Krótkie podsumowanie jest dostępne na stronie Commons:Cross-wiki upload a dyskusja toczy się na Commons:Village Pump.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-30

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Nowe funkcje

• Stewardzi mogą teraz globalnie blokować konta. Przed tą zmianą tylko adresy i zakresy IP mogły być blokowane globalnie. Globalne blokady kont mogą być stosowane w sytuacjach, kiedy niewskazane jest wylogowywanie użytkownika. Globalne zamknięcie konta (podobna funkcja, ale powodująca wylogowanie) nie została zmieniona. Nowa funkcja jest związana z projektem kont tymczasowych, czyli nowego rodzaju kont użytkowników, które zastąpią adresy IP jako sposób identyfikowania anonimowych użytkowników (adresy IP nie będą docelowo widoczne publicznie).
• Później w tym tygodniu użytkownicy wiki Wikimedia zauważą, że interfejs wersji przejrzanych został poprawiony i uspójniony z resztą interfejsu MediaWiki oraz wzornictwem Wikimedia. Doświadczenia użytkowników tego rozszerzenia w wersji mobilnej i skórce Minerva były niespójne, zanim zespół Growth i wolontariusze przenieśli je na bibliotekę Codex. [180]
• Użytkownicy wiki Wikimedia mogą teraz przesyłać prośby o zniknięcie za pomocą strony GlobalVanishRequest. Tej funkcji można użyć, jeśli użytkownik chce przestać korzystać z konta na dobre. Pomaga to ukryć swoje wcześniejsze powiązania, aby lepiej chronić prywatność. Po wykonaniu prośby, konto zostanie zamknięte i będzie mieć zmienioną nazwę. [181]
• Próbowaliście monitorować i rozwiązywać problemy wandalizmu w Wikipedii, korzystając z telefonu? Post na Diffie na temat funkcji patrolowania w aplikacji mobilnej podkreśla niektóre z nowych możliwości, w tym przewijanie przez strumień ostatnich zmian oraz osobistą bibliotekę wiadomości do wysyłania podczas patrolowania z telefonu.
• Współpracownicy Wikimedia i organizacje GLAM (galerie, biblioteki, archiwa i muzea) mogą teraz dowiedzieć się i zmierzyć wpływ, jaki Wikimedia Commons ma na tworzenie wysokiej jakości treści encyklopedycznych za pomocą narzędzia analitycznego Commons Impact Metrics. Oferuje ono organizacjom możliwość analizy takich rzeczy jak edycje miesięcznie w kategorii, najczęściej przeglądane pliki i wykorzystanie obrazów w projektach Wikimedia. Korzystając z tych nowych dumpów danych organizacje GLAM mogą bardziej wiarygodnie mierzyć zwrot z inwestycji w programy wprowadzające treści cyfrowe do Commons. [182]

Wiadomości o projektach

• Zapraszamy do dzielenia się pomysłami na polepszenie działania wiki w ponownie otwartym Badaniu Życzeń Społeczności. Jest ono miejscem, gdzie wolontariusze mogą zgłaszać pomysły („życzenia”), które mogą usprawnić funkcjonowanie wiki. Nowa wersja Listy jest stale otwarta i współpracuje z edytorem wizualnym i wikikodu. Życzenia można zgłaszać w dowolnym języku.

Dowiedz się więcej

• Zastanawialiście się kiedyś, jak oprogramowanie Wikimedia działa w ponad 300 językach? To o 253 języki więcej niż interfejs Google Chrome, i nie jest to przypadek. Zespół Language and Product Localization w Fundacji Wikimedia wspiera Twoją pracę poprzez dostosowanie wszystkich narzędzi i interfejsów używanych do Twojego i innych języków. Dowiedz się więcej o zespole i ich nadchodzącej pracy w Diff.
• Jak Wikimedia mogą budować innowacyjne i eksperymentalne produkty, jeśli muszą utrzymywać tak często używane strony internetowe? Niedawny post na blogu pracownika WMF Johana Jönssona zarysowuje działania inicjatywy WMF Future Audience, której celem nie jest dostarczanie dopieszczonych produktów, ale testowanie pomysłów, takich jak plugin do ChatGPT czy Add a Fact, mających pomóc zanieść Wikimedia w przyszłość.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-31

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Nowe funkcje

• Użytkownicy, korzystający z edytora wizualnego w językach niestosujących cyfr arabskich, np. hinduskim, manipuri czy arabskim, zobaczą zmiany w formatowaniu numeracji przypisów. Jest to efekt uboczny przygotowywania nowej funkcji – rozszerzania przypisów – i przy okazji poprawienia kilku ogólnych problemów z numerowaniem w edytorze wizualnym. Jeśli zauważycie jakieś problemy na swojej wiki, napiszcie na stronie dyskusji projektu.

Błędy

• Niektórzy zalogowani użytkownicy nie mogli wyświetlać ani edytować stron w zeszłym tygodniu. Te błędy wynikały głównie z wprowadzenia nowych reguł lintera, które doprowadziły do problemów z pamięcią podręczną. Naprawiono błędy, a analiza ich przyczyn nadal trwa.
• Użytkownicy mogą korzystać z narzędzia IP Info, aby pozyskiwać informacje o adresach IP. Jest ono dostępne w preferencjach jako funkcja eksperymentalna. Przez kilka dni w zeszłym tygodniu nie było ono dostępne, ale teraz już działa. Dziękujemy Shizhao za zgłoszenie błędu. Możecie przeczytać więcej o tym i 28 innych zgłoszeniach ze strony społeczności, które rozwiązano w ubiegłym tygodniu.

Informacje o projektach

• Do Phabricatora wprowadzono kilka nowych funkcji i usprawnień (autorstwa zespołów Release Engineering i Collaboration Services oraz wolontariuszy), w tym: w wyszukiwarce, nowy system tworzenia zadań, w systemie logowania, wsparcie dla większej liczby języków (dzięki, Pppery), poprawki błędów w wielu przypadkach brzegowych. Więcej szczegółów dostępnych jest w tym podsumowaniu.
• Dostępne są nowe wieści o projekcie przywrócenia wykresów. Zespół wybrał bibliotekę do wizualizacji, rodzaje wykresów, od których należy zacząć oraz gdzie przechowywać definicje wykresów.
• Jedna nowa wiki została utworzona: Wikipodróże po czesku (voy:cs:) [183]

Dowiedz się więcej

• Otwarta została nowa serwerownia Fundacji Wikimedia w São Paulo w Brazyli, która pomaga zmniejszyć czasy ładowania naszych witryn.
• Trwa nowe badanie na temat problemów z procesem przesyłania obrazów.
• Miary wpływu Commons są teraz dostępne poprzez zrzuty danych i API.
• Najnowszy kwartalny Newsletter społeczności technicznej jest już dostępny.

Growth News, July 2024

Konfigurowanie przez społeczność

Zespół Growth wprowadził mechanizm Konfigurowania przez społeczność na wszystkie Wikipedie. Dostęp odbywa się poprzez stronę Special:CommunityConfiguration.

Ta nowa strona specjalna zastępuje Special:EditGrowthConfig. Od teraz, wszystkie funkcje Growth mogą być konfigurowane przez mechanizm Konfigurowanie przez społeczność. Konfigurowanie funkcji AutoModerator (T365046) i innych będzie dostępne w przyszłości.

Możesz pomóc w tłumaczeniach. Tłumaczeń interfejsu dokonuje się przez Translatewiki.net. Możesz tez pomóc tłumaczyć dokumentację.

If you attend Wikimania 2024, please join us for the session about Community configuration's future!

Current work

Newcomer Homepage Community Updates module

We will add a new Community Configurable module to the Newcomer Homepage that will allow communities to highlight specific events, projects, campaigns, and initiatives. We have released a simple version available to beta wikis. We will conduct an A/B test at our pilot wikis using the new Metrics Platform. We still welcome community feedback on initial designs and plans, in any language at our project talk page.

Future work

Increase constructive activation on mobile

As part of the Growth team 2024/2025 Annual Plan, the Growth team will explore various ways to increase the percentage of newcomers who successfully start editing.

Editing a Wikipedia page requires too much context and patience. It means many trial and error for newcomers to contribute, meaning a steeper learning curve and potential discouraging reverts. To support a new generation of volunteers, we will increase the number and availability of smaller, structured, and more task-specific editing workflows (E.g. Edit Check and Structured Tasks). The Growth team will primarily focus on Structured Tasks, while working closely with the Editing team to ensure our work integrates well with Edit Check.

Stay informed

Growth team weekly updates are available on wiki (in English) if you want to know more about our day-to-day work.

If you want to receive more general updates about technical activity happening across the Wikimedia movement (including Growth work), we encourage you to subscribe to Tech News.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-32

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Komunikaty o funkcjonalnościach

• Dwie nowe funkcje parsera będą dostępne w tym tygodniu: {{#dir}} i {{#bcp47}}. Pozwolą one zmniejszyć potrzebę wykorzystania szablonów Template:Dir i Template:BCP47 na Commons i pozwolą skasować 100 milionów wierszy z tablicy linkujących w bazie danych. Edytorzy na dowolnej wiki, która korzysta z tych szablonów mogą pomóc, poprzez zastępowanie ich nowymi funkcjami parsera. Szablony na Commons zostaną zaktualizowane w czasie Hackathonu na Wikimanii. [184][185]
• Społeczności mogą wnioskować o aktywację edytora wizualnego w przestrzeniach nazw, gdzie czasem toczą się dyskusje (np. Wikipedia: albo Wikiźródła:), jeśli rozumieją, jakie ograniczenia się z tym wiążą. W dyskusjach użytkownicy mogą już korzystać z Narzędzi dyskusji w tych przestrzeniach.
• Nazwa kategorii śledzącej „Strony używające Timeline‎” została na TranslateWiki zmieniona na „Strony używające rozszerzenia EasyTimeline”. Wiki, które posiadają tę kategorię utworzoną lokalnie, powinny przenieść ją pod nową nazwę.

Komunikaty o projektach

• Zapraszamy edytorów, wspierających organizację wikiprojektów i podobnych współprac, do podzielenia się pomysłami i przykładami udanego współdziałania z zespołem Campaigns and Programs. Możecie wypełnić krótką ankietę lub podzielić się przemyśleniami na stronie dyskusji. Szczególnie przydatne będą informacje związane z wiki w innych językach niż angielski.
• Nowy parser będzie wdrażany na Wikipodróżach w ciągu najbliższych miesięcy. W zeszłym tygodniu Parsoid został włączony na Wikipodróżach w językach angielskim i hebrajskim. Dostępnych jest więcej informacji.

Dowiedz się więcej

• W tym tygodniu odbędzie się Wikimania z ponad dwustoma sesjami. Dostępne jest podsumowanie niektórych najważniejszych sesji związanych z obszarem produktu i technologii.
• Dostępny jest najnowszy Biuletyn Wikimedia Foundation.
• Najnowszy kwartalny newsletter o językach i internacjonalizacji jest dostępny. Zawiera między innymi: nowe szkice dla tłumaczenia stron, wieści o MinT dla czytelników, zrzuty tłumaczeń z translatewiki.net.
• Najnowszy kwartalny newsletter Growth jest dostępny.
• Najnowszy comiesięczny newsletter MediaWiki Product Insights jest dostępny.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-34

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Komunikaty o funkcjonalnościach

• Edytorzy, którzy chcą wielokrotnie wykorzystywać przypisy, ale różniące się szczegółami (np. numerem strony), będą mogli to robić już przed końcem 2024 roku, z użyciem nowej funkcji rozszerzania przypisów. Możecie przeczytać więcej o projekcie i przetestować prototyp.
• Nazwy sześciu kategorii śledzących zostały zmienione, aby lepiej wpasowywały się w schemat nazewniczy i przez to były łatwiejsze do zrozumienia. Te kategorie są dodawane do stron wykorzystujących wyspecjalizowane rozszerzenia MediaWiki. Zmiany nazw dotyczą: DynamicPageList, Kartographera, Phonosa, RSS, Score i WikiHiero. Wiki, gdzie te kategorie istnieją lokalnie powinny przenieść odpowiednie strony, tak aby istniały pod nową nazwą. Podziękowania dla Pppery za te usprawnienia. [188]
• Techniczni wolontariusze, którzy edytują moduły i chcą pozyskać listę kategorii, w których jest strona, mogą te zrobić z użyciem właściwości categories w mw.title objects. Pozwala to skonfigurować na wiki np. edit notice charakterystyczne dla kategorii. Podziękowania dla SD001 za te usprawnienia. [189][190]

Komunikaty o błędach

• Prosimy o pomoc i sprawdzenie, czy istnieją strony, które należy przenieść lub usunąć. Skrypt utrzymaniowy został uruchomiony, aby naprawić nieosiągalne strony (np. w związku z detalami z Unicode albo wprowadzaniem nowych przestrzeni nazw i aliasów dla nich). Podjęta została próba naprawienia tytułów (np. zgodnie ze zmianami w Unicode albo poprzez przenosiny na zasadzie Dyskusja:WP: do Dyskusja Wikipedii:), ale dla niektórych przypadków mogło się to nie powieść. Wtedy strony zostały przeniesione do Special:PrefixIndex/T195546/. Zachęcamy społeczność do przejrzenia listy stron i przeniesienia ich lub usunięcia, jeśli nie są już potrzebne. Pełny spis stron, podlegających działaniu skryptu (w tym strony, które przeniesiono pod poprawioną nazwę) znajduje się w phab:P67388.
• Wolontariusze, którzy działają jako przewodnicy mogą znowu wyświetlać listę potencjalnych podopiecznych, którym mogą zaoferować pomoc. Ta funkcja jest ponownie dostępna, ponieważ naprawiono błąd w oprogramowaniu. Dziękujemy Mbch331 za jego zgłoszenie. Możecie przeczytać o tym i 18 innych błędach zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu.

Informacje o projektach

• Termin na zgłaszanie się do Product & Technology Advisory Council (PTAC) został wydłużony do 16 września. Członkowie komitetu będą doradzać kierownictwu zespołu Product & Technology na temat krótko- i długoterminowych planów, złożonych problemów strategicznych oraz o tym, jak pozyskiwać informacje zwrotne od większej liczby użytkowników i społeczności technicznych. Wybrani członkowie powinni być gotowi na poświęcenie około 5 godzin miesięcznie na rzecz komitetu, podczas rocznego pilotażu. Zachęcamy do aplikowania i zapraszania do tego innych wolontariuszy, którzy w waszej opinii wniosą wartościowy wkład do tej grupy.

• Na Wikimanii ogłoszone zostały Coolest Tool Awards 2024, przyznane w siedmiu kategoriach. Na przykład, jedna z nich trafiła do ISA Tool, wykorzystywanego do dodawania danych strukturalnych do Commons, które zostało znacząco usprawnione w czasie Hakatonu Wiki Mentor Africa. Dostępne są demonstracje działania narzędzi na stronie o tegorocznej edycji plebiscytu. Gratulujemy zwycięzcom i dziękujemy wszystkim twórcom i opiekunom narzędzi.
• Najnowszy Biuletyn Fundacji Wikimedia jest dostępny i zawiera informacje z Wikimanii, o nadchodzącym spotkaniu społeczności językowej oraz inne wiadomości z ruchu.

Komunikaty o funkcjonalnościach

• Administratorzy mogą teraz testować konta tymczasowe na test2wiki. Zostały tam wdrożone, aby umożliwić sprawdzanie takich kont w scenariuszach cross-wiki. Od kilku tygodni konta tymczasowe dostępne są na testwiki. Dalsze wdrożenia nie są jeszcze zaplanowane. Projekt kont tymczasowych ma na celu wprowadzenie nowego rodzaju konta użytkownika, do stosowania zamiast adresu IP w odniesieniu do anonimowych edytorów. Docelowo adresy IP nie będą publiczne. Prosimy o opinie i pytania na stronie dyskusji projektu.
• Później w tym tygodniu, na wiki korzystających z wersji przejrzanych, zmienią się wskaźniki stanu przejrzenia nad artykułem. Zmiana ta ma na celu uspójnienie ich z resztą interfejsu MediaWiki. [191]

Komunikaty o błędach

• Edytorzy korzystający z edytora wikikodu 2010, po użyciu przycisków do wstawiania znaków, nie będą już doświadczać problemów z umieszczaniem tych znaków w polu opisu zmian zamiast głównym polu edytora. Możecie przeczytać więcej o tym i 26 innych problemach zgłoszonych przez społeczność i rozwiązanych w ostatnim tygodniu.

Informacje o projektach

• Prosimy o przejrzenie i głosowanie na obszary tematyczne w ramach otwartej ponownie Listy Życzeń Społeczności. Są to grupy tematów, które dotykają wspólnego problemu. Początkowa grupa obszarów tematycznych zawiera: zagadnienia moderacyjne, wsparcie nowicjuszy, minimalizację powtarzających się zadań oraz priorytetyzację zadań. Kiedy wolontariusze zagłosują na obszary tematyczne, Fundacja Wikimedia zadecyduje, na których obszarach skupić uwagę.
• Czy masz projekt i chcesz przez trzy miesiące wspierać stażystę? Outreachy jest odbywającym się co pół roku programem, który pozwala ludziom brać udział w płatnym stażu.

Przegląd tygodnia

• Edytorzy i programiści-wolontariusze zainteresowani wizualizacją danych mogą już testować nowe oprogramowanie wykresów. Jego wczesna wersja jest dostępna na beta Commons i beta Wikipedii. To wdrożenie było ważnym krokiem przed udostępnieniem wykresów na zwykłych wiki. Więcej informacji dostępnych jest w tym komunikacie. Zapraszamy do testowania nowych wykresów.

Komunikaty o funkcjonalności

• Edytorzy korzystający ze strony Specjalna:Nieużywane szablony mogą teraz odfiltrować szablony, które powinny się tam znajdować na stałe – takie jak brudnopisy, przypadki testowe czy szablony do podstawiania. Edytorzy mogą stosować nowe magiczne słowo __EXPECTUNUSEDTEMPLATE__ na stronie szablonu, aby oznaczyć go jako celowo nieużywany. Dziękujemy DannyemuS712 i Sophivorusowi za te usprawnienia. [192]
• Użytkownicy, którzy rozpoczynają wątki na stronach dyskusji, będą otrzymywali przypomnienie, aby wypełnić pole nagłówka sekcji, co pozwoli ograniczyć liczbę nowicjuszy dodających wątki bez tematu. Możecie przeczytać więcej o tym i 28 innych kwestiach zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które rozwiązano w zeszłym tygodniu.
• W zeszłym tygodniu niektóre narzędzia na Toolforge miewały problemy z połączeniem. Ich przyczyna jest cały czas diagnozowana, ale nie powinny już występować. [193]
• Administratorzy tłumaczeń na wielojęzycznych wiki mogą teraz łatwiej określać, które zmienione jednostki tłumaczenia mają zostać unieważnione, dzięki wprowadzeniu nowej listy rozwijanej.

Informacje o projektach

• Na Meta-Wiki opublikowano szkic zasad wykorzystywania API Wikimedia. Ma on na celu skodyfikować już obowiązujące reguły i nie będzie ich zmieniać. Komentarze, pytania i sugestie są mile widziane na stronie dyskusji propozycji do 13 września lub do czasu zakończenia dyskusji.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-37

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Komunikaty o funkcjonalnościach

• Od tego tygodnia standardowe podświetlanie składni w edytorze będzie zgodne z trybem ciemnym. Jest to jedna z wielu zmian, nadchodzących w ramach usprawnienia podświetlania składni. Możecie dowiedzieć się więcej o nadchodzących zmianach na stronie pomocy. [195][196]
• Edytorzy będą teraz powiadamiani wyłącznie o istotnych zmianach z Wikidanych na swoich lokalnych listach obserwowanych. Funkcje Lua entity:getSitelink() i mw.wikibase.getSitelink(qid) będą korzystały z takiej samej logiki do śledzenia różnych aspektów linków językowych, co ma zredukować nadmiarowe powiadomienia związane z niespójnym śledzeniem linków do witryn. [197]

Informacje o projektach

• Wszystkie wiki będą przez kilka minut w trybie tylko do odczytu 25 września od godziny 15:00 UTC. Odbędzie się to w ramach zaplanowanego przełączenia serwerowni z przyczyn utrzymaniowych. Więcej informacji będzie dostępnych w Tech News oraz bezpośrednio na wiki w najbliższych tygodniach. [198]
• Na 11 Wikipediach, w tym angielskiej, zostanie utworzona przestrzeń nazw MOS. Pozwoli to zachować poprawne działanie linków rozpoczynających się od MOS: (np. skrótów do Manual of Style), które w przeciwnym razie stałyby się interwikami do Wikipedii w języku mossi (kod języka mos). [199]

Tool of the week

• User:Lagewi/references.js - "Sometimes, the data on Wikidata does not answer all your questions. Some types of information are difficult to encode in statements, or simply has not been encoded on Wikidata yet. In such cases, it might be useful to go through the references attached to claims of the entity, for additional information. To simplify this process, this user script lists all unique references based on stated in (P248) and reference URL (P854). The references are listed in a collapsible list below the table of labels and descriptions, collapsed by default to not be obtrusive." To enable it, include the following line in your common.js: mw.loader.load('//www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=User:Lagewi/references.js&oldid=2039248554&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-38

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Poprawki i konserwacja

• Zapraszamy edytorzy zainteresowanych szablonami do przejrzenia nowego obszaru w Liście życzeń społeczności – Odkrywanie i zapamiętywanie szablonów – oraz dzielenia się opiniami na stronie dyskusji. Pomogą one zespołowi Community Tech zdecydować, co konkretnie zaimplementować. Zapraszamy też wszystkich aby nadal dodawali nowe życzenia.
• Nowa strona specjalna Specjalna:Przestrzenie nazw pomaga użytkownikom dowiedzieć się, jakie przestrzenie nazw istnieją na wiki i jak każda z nich jest skonfigurowana. Dziękujemy Danny'emuS712 za to usprawnienie. [200]
• Sprawdzanie przypisów w ramach automatycznego pomocnika (EditCheck) zachęca nowicjuszy, aby dodawali przypisy, kiedy dodają nową treść do artykułu w Wikipedii. Przez krótki czas narzędzie to aktywowało się (i dodawało znacznik „Aktywowano automatycznego pomocnika (przypisy)”) omyłkowo poza główną przestrzenią nazw. Zostało to naprawione. [201]
• Społeczność wiki może teraz zmienić kolejność, w której wyświetlają się kategorie, do których dana strona należy. Domyślnie odpowiada ona porządkowi linków do kategorii w wikikodzie. Jeśli społeczność osiągnie konsensus, może poposić o zmianę konfiguracji na wyświetlanie w porządku alfabetycznym. [202]
• Publiczne bazy danych ToolsDB będą teraz dostępne zarówno z Quarry i Superset. Były one już wcześniej dostępne dla każdego użytkownika Toolforge, a teraz ich wykorzystanie będzie jeszcze łatwiejsze, ponieważ z Quarry może korzystać każdy z kontem Wikimedia. Dodatkowo, wewnętrzna baza danych Quarry może być odpytana z poziomu Quarry. Zawiera ona informacje o wszystkich zapytaniach, które są wykonywane i oznaczane gwiazdką w tym narzędziu. Informacje te już były dostępne w interfejsie webowym, a teraz będzie można z nich korzystać również przez SQL. Możecie przeczytać więcej o tym i 20 innych kwestiach zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które rozwiązano w zeszłym tygodniu.
• Wszelkie strony lub narzędzia, które nadal używają bardzo starych klas CSS mw-message-box muszą być zaktualizowane. Te stare klasy zostaną usunięte w przyszłym tygodniu lub wkrótce później. Sugerujemy skorzystanie z globalnego wyszukiwania do określenia, co należy zmienić. Możliwe jest użycie nowszej grupy klas cdx-message jako zastępstwa (zobaczcie dokumentację Codeksa, i przykład aktualizacji), ale najlepsze byłoby używanie klas zdefiniowanych lokalnie na wiki. [203]

Prace techniczne

• W następnym tygodniu, wszystkie wiki Wikimedia będą w trybie tylko do odczytu przez kilka minut. Wynika to z zaplanowanego przełączenia serwerowni z przyczyn konserwacyjnych. Rozpocznie się ono 25 września o 15:00 UTC (17:00 CEST). Te prace dotkną także nasze usługi. Poprzednie przełączenie trwało 3 minuty, a zespół Site Reliability Engineering korzysta z wielu narzędzi, które pozwalają zredukować czas tych niedogodności do koniecznego minimum. [204]

Poznaj technologię

• Najnowszy comiesięczny newsletter MediaWiki Product Insights jest dostępny. To wydanie opisuje m.in.: badanie o obsłudze haków dla ułatwionego rozwoju oprogramowania, badanie na temat usprawnień wydajności, pracę nad ulepszeniem REST API dla użytkowników.
• Aby dowiedzieć się więcej o technologii stojącej za projektami Wikimedia, możecie obejrzeć na Commons sesje ze ścieżki technologicznej z Wikimanii 2024. W tym tygodniu polecamy:
  • Prezentacja hakatonu (45 min) – 19 krótkich prezentacji wygłoszonych przez niektórych uczestników hakatonu, opisujących projekty, nad którymi pracowali, np. automatyczne testowanie skryptów utrzymaniowych, narzędzie CLI do przycinania wideo, usprawnienia interfejsu narzędzi. Więcej szczegółów i linków znajduje się w zadaniu na Phabricatorze.
  • Co-Creating a Sustainable Future for the Toolforge Ecosystem (40 min) – dyskusja między utrzymującymi narzędzia, użytkownikami i wspierającymi rozwój Toolforge o tym, jak sprawić by platforma była zrównoważona i jak oceniać dostępne tam narzędzia.

Przegląd tygodnia

• Wszystkie wiki będą przez kilka minut w trybie tylko do odczytu w środę, 25 września o 15:00 UTC (17:00 CEST). Cały czas będzie możliwe czytanie zawartości wiki, ale konieczne będzie wstrzymanie edytowania. Dzięki tym copółrocznym działaniom, zespół inżynierii niezawodności w Fundacji Wikimedia może pozostać przygotowany na zdarzenia losowe zakłócające normalną pracę centrum obliczeniowego.

Komunikaty dla edytorów

Interfejs sugerowanej edycji dodawania tekstu alternatywnego

• Edytorzy korzystający z aplikacji Wikipedia na iOS w językach hiszpańskim, portugalskim, francuskim i chińskim mogą zobaczyć eksperymentalną sugestię dodania tekstu alternatywnego po edytowaniu artykułu lub zastosowaniu sugestii dodania obrazka. Tekst alternatywny pomaga ludziom z dysfunkcjami wzroku korzystać z artykułów na Wikipedii. Zespół zamierza sprawdzić, czy dodawanie tekstu alternatywnego to coś, z czym edytorzy sobie radzą. Prosimy o podzielenie się opiniami na stronie dyskusji.
• Paleta kolorów Codex została zaktualizowana o nowe i poprawione kolory dla interfejsu MediaWiki. Najbardziej zauważalne zmiany to między innymi: zmiana koloru linków i subtelnych przycisków (progresywnych i destruktywnych) w trybie ciemnym, zmiana koloru odwiedzonych linków w obu trybach, zmiana tła wiadomości systemowych w obu trybach.
• Można teraz umieszczać klikalne wikilinki i linki zewnętrzne w blokach kodu. Dotyczy to zarówno wnętrza znaczników <syntaxhighlight>, jak i stron z kodem źródłowym (JavaScript, CSS, Scribunto, oczyszczony CSS). Wystąpienia składni szablonu ({{…}}) również będą linkowane do strony szablonu. Dziękujemy SD0001 za to ulepszenie. [205]
• Naprawiono dwa błędy w systemie wymazywania konta, poprzez poprawienie rejestrowania zdarzeń i usunięcie błędnego komunikatu. [206][207]
• Zobacz wszystkie 25 kwestii, zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu.

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Z Wikimedia Enterprise:
  • API pozwala teraz na darmowe (i na wolnych zasadach) wykonanie 5000 zapytań na żądanie miesięcznie i dostęp do wykonywanych dwa razy w miesiącu zrzutów HTML. Więcej informacji o aktualizacjach i ulepszeniach w SDK jest dostępnych w poście na blogu projektu. Podczas gdy API Wikimedia Enterprise są zaprojektowane dla wielkoskalowych zastosowań, ta zmiana może pomóc społecznościom nabudować dodatkowe narzędzia na tej usłudze.
  • W ramach API Snapshot (zrzuty HTML), dostępna jest wersja testowa usługi Zawartość strukturalna (post na blogu). Udostępniliśmy także dwa zbiory danych (Wikipedie angielska i francuska) z tej usługi na Hugging Face, do publicznego wykorzystania i w celu zebrania opinii (post na blogu). Te wstępnie parsowane zbiory danych dają nowe możliwości analizy zawartości badaczom, programistom i analitykom danych.

Inne wiadomości

• Usługa zapytań Wikidanych (WDQS) pozwala na uzyskiwanie odpowiedzi na podstawie danych w Wikidanych. Wraz z rozwojem projektu, musieliśmy wprowadzić poważną zmianę architektoniczną, dzięki której WDQS może pozostać wydajne. W ramach projektu podziału grafu wiedzy, udostępniliśmy dwa nowe adresy, pod którymi można wykonywać zapytania: „scholarly” (podgraf akademicki) i „main” (podgraf główny). Adres query.wikidata.org będzie obsługiwał pełny graf do marca 2025, po czym zostanie przełączony na główny podgraf. Więcej informacji dostępne jest w ogłoszeniu na Wikidanych.

Did you know?

• Query examples:
  • Network of European Union Independent Fiscal Institutions
  • Opera singers who are sopranos with an article on English Wikipedia
• Newest WikiProjects:
• Newest database reports: Popular_items_without_claims
• Showcase Lexemes: هُئَڻُ L1126190 Sindhi verb (to be)

Development

• Search: The haswbstatement search magic word has been improved by the Search Platform Team. Previously it was limited in which Properties were indexed for it. Going forward haswbstatement:P123 will work for all Properties, regardless of their datatype. This will allow you to filter search results for Items that have a statement with a specific Property. (Searching for a specific complete statement with haswbstatement:P123=xxx will still only work for specific datatypes.) For this to work all Items have to be reindexed and this will take up to 1 month.
• Design system migration: We have migrated the Special:NewLexeme page from Wikit to Codex and are working on finishing the migration for the Query Builder.
• EntitySchemas: We finished the investigation about how to support search for EntitySchemas by label or alias when linking to an EntitySchema in a statement. (phab:T362005)
• Wikibase REST API: We worked on integrating language fallbacks into the API (phab:T371605)

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-40

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Czytelnicy kolejnych 42 wiki mogą korzystać z trybu ciemnego. Jeśli ta opcja nie jest jeszcze dostępna dla wylogowanych użytkowników waszej wiki, najprawdopodobniej oznacza to, że wiele szablonów wyświetla się źle w trybie ciemnym. Jeśli chcecie pomóc w tej materii, zapraszamy do skorzystania z narzędzia, zliczającego problemy z kontrastem. Zalecenia są zawarte na odpowiedniej stronie. Decyzję o wdrożeniu trybu ciemnego na nowe wiki podejmujemy co miesiąc.
• Edytorzy, używający edytora wikikodu 2010 jako domyślnego, mogą teraz włączyć ten z 2017 roku, dodając ?veaction=editsource do adresu URL. Nowszy edytor można włączyć na stałe w preferencjach. [208]
• Wylogowani użytkownicy zobaczą teraz link „Wspomóż” w górnym menu, obok opcji tworzenia konta (zamiast w zwijanym menu głównym). Ta zmiana przywraca poziom widoczności linku do analogicznego jak w skórce Wektor 2010. Dowiedz się więcej o zmianach dla darczyńców. [209]
• Rozszerzenie CampaignEvents zapewnia narzędzia dla organizatorów, dzięki którym mogą łatwiej zarządzać wydarzeniami, komunikować się z uczestnikami i promować wydarzenia na wiki. Rozszerzenie zostało włączone na Wikipediach: arabskiej, igbo i suahili oraz na Meta-Wiki. Niedawno również o jego aktywację poprosiła Wikipedia chińska, a na hiszpańskiej i w Wikidanych toczą się dyskusje na ten temat. Aby dowiedzieć się o tym, jak poprosić o włączenie rozszerzenia na swojej wiki, możecie odwiedzić stronę CampaignEvents na Meta-Wiki.
• Zobacz wszystkie 22 kwestie, zgłoszone przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu.

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Programiści z kontem na wiki Wikitech powinni sprawdzić, czy dla ich kont wymagana jest jakieś działanie w związku z przejściem na konta uniwersalne (i innymi zmianami konfiguracyjnymi). Dzięki tej zmianie, cotygodniowe aktualizacje oprogramowania na wiki będą mniej złożone.

Inne wiadomości

• W zeszłym tygodniu pomyślnie przełączono serwerownię. W ramach tego procesu wiki były w trybie tylko do odczytu przez 2 minuty i 46 sekund. Okresowo wykonywane przełączenie pomaga nam się upewnić, że inżynierowie są w stanie przełączyć serwerownie w razie awarii i utrzymać dostępność wiki dla czytelników. Ponadto, pozwala to wykonać prace konserwacyjne i usprawnienia w systemach, które normalnie pracują 24 godziny na dobę, a przy okazji często ujawniają się słabości w infrastrukturze. Aby dokonać przełączenia, wymagana jest koordynacja kilku zespołów, które nadzorują kilkadziesiąt usług programowych i setki fizycznych serwerów. Na przestrzeni ostatnich lat wykonano prace, dzięki którym czas, kiedy edytowanie jest niemożliwe, uległ skróceniu z 17 do 2–3 minut. [210]

Spotkania i wydarzenia

• 4–6 października: Hakaton WikiIndaba Conference w Johannesburgu, RPA
• 4–6 listopada: MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference Fall 2024 w Wiedniu, Austria

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-41

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Przegląd tygodnia

• Społeczności mogą poprosić o instalację rozszerzenia Automoderator na swojej wiki. Automoderator to automatyczne narzędzie przeciwko wandalizmom, które wycofuje złe edycje na podstawie wyniku z modelu uczenia maszynowego „Ryzyko rewertu”. Dostępnych jest więcej informacji o krokach koniecznych do zainstalowania i skonfigurowania. [211]

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Tłumacze, na wiki gdzie dostępna jest mobilna wersja Tłumaczenia Treści, mogą dostosować sugestie artykułów, korzystając z 41 opcji filtrowania. Możliwość wyboru zakresów tematycznych pozwoli tłumaczom na łatwiejsze odkrycie istotnych tematów na bazie swoich zainteresowań. Możecie to wypróbować na swoich urządzeniach mobilnych. [212]
• Zobacz wszystkie 12 kwestii, zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu.

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Bloki kodu <syntaxhighlight> mogą teraz wyświetlać przycisk „Kopiuj”, jeśli w znaczniku jest ustawiony atrybut copy=1. Dziękujemy SD0001 za to usprawnienie. [213]
• Komunikaty o prawach autorskich do stopki na wszystkich wiki zostaną zaktualizowana. Nowa wersja będzie korzystać z wikikodu, zamiast wymagać edytowania surowego HTML. [214]
• Później w tym miesiącu, na część wiki wdrożone zostaną konta tymczasowe. Finalna lista wiki zostanie opublikowana w drugiej połowie miesiąca. Jeśli utrzymujesz narzędzia, boty lub gadżety na tych 11 wiki oraz twoje oprogramowanie używa adresów IP albo jest dostępne dla wylogowanych użytkowników, sprawdź czy nie musi być zaktualizowane, aby współpracować z kontami tymczasowymi. Dostępne są informacje o wymaganych aktualizacjach.
• Ograniczenia tempa zapytań zostały wdrożone do narzędzi przeglądu kodu Gerrit i GitLab, aby zaadresować otwarte kwestie, spowodowane złośliwym ruchem sieciowym i scrapingiem. Klienty, które otwierają wiele współbieżnych połączeń, będą ograniczane na kilka minut. Ta zmiana została wdrożona z użyciem reguł zapory ogniowej nftables. Aby uzyskać więcej szczegółów, można zobaczyć strony na Wikitech o Firewallu, limitach GitLaba i operacjach w Gerricie.
• Pięć nowych wiki zostało utworzonych:
  • Wikipedia w języku komering (w:kge:) [215]
  • Wikipedia w języku mossi (m:mos:) [216]
  • Wikisłownik po madursku (wikt:mad:) [217]
  • Wikicytaty w gorontalo (q:gor:) [218]

Wikidata weekly summary #649

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata in the
week leading up to 2024-10-14. Missed the previous one? See issue #648

Events

• Upcoming:
  • Next Linked Data for Libraries LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group session 15 October, 2024: We have our next LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group Session on Tuesday, 15 October, 2024 at 9am PT / 12pm ET / 16:00 UTC / 6pm CEST (Time zone converter). https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1729008000 Christa Strickler will be our first Project Series lead with her joint project with the Wikidata Religion & Theology Community of Practice to contribute biographical data to Wikidata from the IRFA database https://irfa.paris/en/en-learn-about-a-missionary/ using the Mix’n’Match tool. We are excited to learn more about this project, provide a forum for discussion and shared learning, and lend a hand while building new skills. Event page: [220]
  • The next Wikidata+Wikibase office hours will take place on Wednesday, 16th October 2024 at 18:00 CEST in the Wikidata Telegram group. The Wikidata and Wikibase office hours are online events where the development team presents what they have been working on over the past quarter, and the community is welcome to ask questions and discuss important issues related to the development of Wikidata and Wikibase.
  • Wikidata:Twelfth Birthday: We already have 30 events scheduled on the list 😍. As a reminder, when your event is ready, don't forget to:
    • create a wikipage with more information about the event, participants list, etc.
    • add your event to the global calendar and the map, following the instructions here: Wikidata:Twelfth Birthday/Run an event/Schedule

Press, articles, blog posts, videos

• Blogs
  • Small data, slow data − a SNAIL approach to Wikidata: discusses the value of small, carefully curated datasets in the era of big data. It emphasizes the importance of taking a methodical, "snail-paced" approach to data collection and analysis, which can lead to more meaningful and accurate insights. The blogpost also highlights how this approach can complement the broader trends of big data, ensuring that detailed, high-quality data is not overlooked.
• Papers
  • "WoolNet: Finding and Visualising Paths in Knowledge Graphs" given two or more entities requested by a user, the system finds and visualises paths that connect these entities, forming a topical subgraph of Wikidata (Torres Gutiérrez and Hogan)
• Videos
  • Introductory workshop to Wikidata within the framework of the Latin America Contest in Wikidata 2024 (in Italian)
  • GeoPython 2024: Bridging Worlds: Python-Powered Integration of Wikidata and OpenStreetMap: This talk explores Python-powered tools that integrate Wikidata with OpenStreetMap, allowing users to link entries between the two platforms to enhance geospatial data accuracy while navigating legal and ethical challenges of cross-platform data sharing.
  • LD4 2024 Conference: Wikidata and Open Data: Enhancing the Hausa Community's Digital Presence
  • Dynamic Mapping using Collaborative Knowledge Graphs: Real-Time SKOS Mapping from Wikidata: This presentation introduces a workflow using SPARQL queries to dynamically map live Wikidata data to SKOS concepts, featuring a Python tool that converts CSV outputs into RDF triples for integration into linked data environments and knowledge graphs, emphasizing real-time data retrieval and interoperability.
  • How to add location coordinates to Wikidata Items (in Dagbanli)
  • Clean-up of problematic Dagbani lexemes: Wikidata:Lexicographical data/Documentation/Languages/dag#Maintenance_tasks (in Dagbanli)
  • How to link Wikidata Items to Wikipedia Articles
  • Best Practices to editing Dagbani Lexemes on Wikidata
• Podcasts
  • Could making Wikidata 'human' readable lead to better AI?: Lydia Pintscher (WMDE), Portfolio Lead Product Manager at Wikidata Deutschland, discussed a new project aimed at making Wikidata more 'human' readable for Large Language Models (LLMs), which could improve AI reliability by giving these models access to high-quality, human-curated data from Wikidata.
• Notebooks
  • Citizenship concentration in Nobel laureates
  • Continental and country diversity in Wikipedia articles

Tool of the week

• Elemwala (এলেমওয়ালা) (https://elemwala.toolforge.org): is a proof-of-concept interface that allows you to input abstract content and get natural language text in a given output language. There may well be errors with particular inputs, and the text may not be quite as natural as you might expect, but that's where your improvements to your language's lexemes, other Wikidata items, and the tool's source code come in!
• mlscores: Tool for calculating multilinguality score of Wikidata items (including properties). E.g. for Wikidata (Q2013), the scores are - en: 99.66%, fr: 89.49%, es: 84.07%, pt: 68.47%. For instance of (P31), the scores are - en: 99.86%, fr: 87.12%, es: 80.83%, pt: 61.37%.

Other Noteworthy Stuff

• Launch of WikiProject Deprecate P642: The goal of this project is to prepare for deprecation, and eventual removal, of the property of (P642). Currently, of (P642) is labeled as "being deprecated", meaning its use is still allowed, but discouraged. From a peak of around 900,000 uses, the property now has around 700,000 uses (see status here). Our goal is to reduce that as much as possible in a systematic way, while ensuring that appropriate properties exist to replace all valid uses of of (P642). The latter is key to officially deprecating the property. Before removing the property, we want to get as close to zero uses as possible.

Newest properties and property proposals to review

• Newest properties:
  • General datatypes:
    • characteristic of ((qualifier only) statement value is a characteristic, quality, property, or state of this qualifier value)

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-42

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Dyskusje strukturyzowane (znane również jako Flow) będą stopniowo odinstalowywane z wiki. Rozszerzenie do ich obsługi jest nieutrzymywane i jego architektura powoduje problemy. Zamiast tego, sugerujemy używanie Narzędzi dyskusji, które mogą być stosowane na dowolnej zwykłej stronie dyskusji. Kontaktujemy się aktualnie z pierwszą grupą wiki. Prosimy je, aby zaprzestały korzystania z Dyskusji strukturyzowanych i przeniosły tablice Flow na podstrony w celu archiwizacji. Na tych wiki, wszystkie strony, które nie zostały przeniesione, będą przeniesione automatycznie po 22 października br. 28 października z kolei, wszystkie tablice Flow na tych wiki przejdą w tryb tylko do odczytu. [221][222]
• Zespół Search Platform Fundacji Wikimedia pracuje nad ułatwieniem czytelnikom wyszukiwania w ich własnym języku. Zmiana z zeszłego tygodnia poprawiła dopasowywanie słów z akcentami i innymi diakrytykami w ponad 30 językach. Dotyczy to zarówno zapytań pełnotekstowych, jak i wyszukiwania zaawansowanego, z zastosowaniem słów kluczowych jak hastemplate i incategory. Więcej szczegółów technicznych (w tym inne drobne usprawnienia) jest dostępnych. [223]
• Zobacz wszystkie 20 kwestii, zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu. Na przykład wdrożono Automatycznego pomocnika na rosyjskiej Wikipedii, wprowadzono też poprawki dla brakujących styli interfejsu użytkownika.

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Osoby, korzystające z narzędzia Earwig's Copyrighr Violation Detector na Toolforge, będą teraz musiały się zalogować kontem Wikimedia, zanim będą mogły wykonywać sprawdzenia poprzez wyszukiwarki internetowe (opcja „search engine”). Ograniczy to nadużycia systemu z powodu zapytań od zewnętrznych botów. Dziękujemy Chlodowi za te ulepszenia. [224]
• Naprawiono wysyłanie maili do Phabricatora: użytkownicy mogą znowu tworzyć i komentować istniejące zadania poprzez e-mail. [225]
• Niektóre elementy HTML w interfejsie są teraz owinięte znacznikiem <bdi>, aby lepiej dopasować się do standardów internetowych. Więcej tego typu zmian nadejdzie w następnych tygodniach. Niektóre narzędzia, opierające się na strukturze HTML interfejsu, mogą doświadczać problemów. Przy okazji przypominamy, że poleganie na strukturze HTML interfejsu nie jest zalecane, ponieważ może ona zostać zmieniona w dowolnym momencie. [226]

Inne wiadomości

• Najnowszy comiesięczny newsletter MediaWiki Product Insights jest dostępny. To wydanie zawiera między innymi: komunikaty o systemie uwierzytelniania Wikimedia, badania o ułatwieniu rozwoju nowych funkcji w MediaWiki, komunikaty o unifikacji parserów i wdrażaniu MathML.
• Najnowszy kwartalny Newsletter społeczności technicznej jest już dostępny. To wydanie zawiera między innymi: badanie na temat usprawnienia sugerowania tematów powiązanych z państwami, ulepszenia testów PHPUnit.

Wikidata weekly summary #650

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata in the
week leading up to 2024-10-21. Missed the previous one? See issue #649

Discussions

• Open request for adminship: Addshore (RfP scheduled to end after 23 October 2024 18:03 UTC)
• New requests for permissions/Bot:
  • CarbonBot - (1) Add default mul labels to given and family names when the item has an existing default label with a mul language (2) Remove duplicated aliases matching the items mul label, when the item has a native label in with a mul language. As mul has not been fully adopted, a limited of aliases would be modified each day to ensure existing workflows are not disrupted. It is expected that these tasks will apply to roughly 800,000 given and family names.
  • So9qBot 10 - Add first line (P1922) with the first line of the paper to all scientific papers which has a full text link or where the abstract is available.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-43

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Przegląd tygodnia

• Zespół Mobile Apps zaktualizował sposób nawigacji w aplikacji na iOS (dostępne w najnowszej wersji do pobrania z App Store). Dodano nowe menu Konto, które zapewnia dostęp do funkcji dla edytorów, takich jak powiadomienia i lista obserwowanych. Ponadto, u czytelników bardziej widoczny jest przycisk „Wspomóż”. Opisane zmiany są pierwszą częścią odświeżenia nawigacji, mającej przekształcić aplikację ze zorientowanej wyłącznie na czytelników na odpowiednią również dla edytorów. W ostatnich latach Fundacja Wikimedia dodała do niej funkcje edycji i komunikacji na wiki, zgodnie z prośbami edytorów.

Menu Konto i jego zawartość w aplikacji Wikipedii na iOS

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Czytelnicy Wikipedii mogą teraz pobierać rozszerzenie do przeglądarki, które pozwala eksperymentować z pewnymi wczesnymi pomysłami, np. rekomendacje artykułów, automatyczne podsumowywanie treści i ulepszone wyszukiwanie. Więcej szczegółów i komunikaty dostępne są na stronie Content Discovery Experiments, prowadzonej przez zespół Web. Zachęcamy też do subskrypcji ich newslettera.
• Później w tym miesiącu, wylogowani edytorzy tych 12 wiki będą mieć tworzone konta tymczasowe. Lista wiki może się do tego czasu nieco zmienić (niektóre wiki mogą z niej zniknąć, ale żadna nie zostanie dodana). Konta tymczasowe to nowy rodzaj konta użytkownika. Poprawia prywatność wylogowanych edytorów i ułatwia społecznościom komunikowanie się z nimi. Jeśli utrzymujesz narzędzia, boty lub gadżety na jednej z tych 12 wiki albo twoje oprogramowanie wykorzystuje adresy IP albo jest dostępne dla wylogowanych użytkowników, sprawdź czy nie potrzebuje aktualizacji dla zapewnienia zgodności z kontami tymczasowymi. Porady, jak zaktualizować kod, są dostepne. Możesz też przeczytać więcej o planie wdrożenia na wszystkich wiki.
• Zobacz wszystkie 33 kwestie, zgłoszone przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu. Na przykład utworzono Wikipedie w językach: ndebele południowym, wojwodińskorusińskim, obolo, iban, taj neua. [227][228][229][230][231]
• Można teraz tworzyć funkcje w Wikifunkcjach, które korzystają z leksemów w Wikidanych, z użyciem nowego typu Leksem Wikidanych, udostępnionego w zeszłym tygodniu. Kiedy skorzystasz z jednej z tych funkcji, interfejs użytkownika udostępnia selektor leksemów, dzięki któremu możesz wybrać odpowiedni leksem na podstawie wpisywanego słowa. Po uruchomieniu funkcji, odpowiednie dane są pobierane z Wikidanych, przekształcane na obiekt Wikifunkcji i przekazywane do funkcji. Więcej informacji na ten temat jest dostępne w najnowszym newsletterze Wikifunkcji.

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Użytkownicy projektów Wikimedia mogą teraz łatwiej formatować daty w różnych językach, korzystając z nowej funkcji parsera {{#timef:…}}. Na przykład efektem wywołania {{#timef:now|date|en}} będzie „18 December 2024”. Wcześniej, do formatowania dat korzystano z {{#time:…}}, ale wymagało znajomości kolejności elementów i znaków interpunkcyjnych między nimi w danym języku. #timef (i #timefl dla czasu lokalnego) udostępnia standardowe formaty czasu, których MediaWiki używa w interfejsie użytkownika. Pozwoli to uprościć niektóre szablony na wielojęzycznych wiki, takich jak Commons i Meta. [232][233]
• Użytkownicy Commons i Meta mogą teraz efektywnie pobierać język użytkownika z użyciem {{USERLANGUAGE}} zamiast {{int:lang}}. [234]
• Rada Doradcza Produktu i Technologii (Product and Tech Advisory Council; PTAC) ma wybranych członków na pilotażową kadencję. Zapewniają oni różnorodność i pochodzą z Afryki, Azji, Europy i obu Ameryk. Będą pracować nad inicjatywą bardziej odpornej i wspólnie zdefiniowanej platformy technologicznej, którą nakreślono w Strategii Ruchu. [235]

Inne wiadomości

• Najnowszy kwartalny Newsletter Growth jest dostępny, a w nim: nadchodzący moduł komunikatów od społeczności na stronie domowej, nowe opcje konfiguracji społecznościowej oraz szczegóły o nowych projektach.
• Fundacja Wikimedia jest teraz oficjalnym partnerem programu CVE, czyli międzynarodowego projektu katalogowania ujawnionych publicznie podatności w cyberbezpieczeństwie. To partnerstwo pozwoli zespołowi Security na natychmiastowe publikowanie rekordów CVE, które dotyczą jądra MediaWiki, rozszerzeń i skórek oraz reszty kodu, którym opiekuje się WMF.
• W Liście życzeń społeczności dostępne są testowo tłumaczenia automatyczne dla zawartości listy. Wolontariusze mogą teraz czytać automatycznie przetłumaczone życzenia i uczestniczyć w dyskusji jeszcze zanim ludzie przetłumaczą treść życzenia.

Spotkania i wydarzenia

• 24 października – Webinar z serii Wiki Education Speaker – Open Source Tech: Building the Wiki Education Dashboard, panel z udziałem programisty zespołu Web i stażystów Wikimedia.
• 20–22 grudnia 2024 – Indic Wikimedia Hackathon Bhubaneswar 2024 w Orisy w Indiach. Hakaton dla członków społeczności, w tym programistów, projektantów i edytorów, którego celem jest stworzenie rozwiązań technicznych poprawiających doświadczenia edytorów.

Growth News, October 2024

Bieżące zadania

Moduł aktualności społeczności na stronie domowej dla nowicjuszy

Dodamy nowy moduł na stronie domowej dla nowicjuszy pozwalający społeczności promować wydarzenia, projekty, kampanie i inicjatywy. Wydaliśmy już wstępną wersję na wiki testowe. Wkrótce zaczniemy test A/B na naszych wiki pilotażowych. Ten moduł będzie wyświetlał się na stronie domowej nowicjuszy tylko jeśli społeczność zdecyduje się go wykorzystywać, więc dowiedzcie się jak go skonfigurować. Podzielcie się swoimi przemyśleniami na stronie dyskusji naszego projektu.

Jedna z koncepcji mająca na celu zwiększenie konstruktywnej działalności

Eksperymenty z zachęcaniem do działalności konstruktywnej

Po zaprezentowaniu szkiców na Wikimanii, przeprowadziliśmy testowanie prototypów wśród użytkowników. Teraz zamierzamy zaangażować społeczności w kolejne dyskusje oraz przeprowadzić eksperyment na wybranej grupie odbiorców, czyli prezentowanie zadania strukturyzowanego w trybie czytania u zalogowanego nowego użytkownika nie mających dotychczasowo wykonanych żadnych edycji.

Konfigurowanie przez społeczność

Rozszerzenie Konfigurowanie przez społeczność zostało stworzone celem pomocy społecznościom w dostosowaniu funkcji wiki do ich unikalnych potrzeb. Zespół Growth pomaga teraz innym zespołom Fundacji Wikimedia, aby ich produkty były konfigurowalne:

• Zespół odpowiedzialny za narzędzia moderacyjne już korzysta z Konfigurowania przez społeczność dla narzędzia Automoderator. (T365046)
• Wkrótce będzie można zmieniać niektóre ustawienia rozszerzenia Babel. (T328171)

Dalsze prace

W ramach planu rocznego zespołu Growth zamierzamy nadal pracować nad ustaleniem sposobów zwiększenia wciągnięcia w konstruktywną aktywność na urządzeniach mobilnych, a także nad współpracą z Data Products celem rozwoju funkcjonalności testów A/B za pomocą Platformy Pomiarowej.

Wydarzenia kierowane do społeczności

• Zespół Growth prezentował Community Configuration: Shaping On-Wiki Functionality Together na Wikimanii (slajdy). Dostępne jest nagranie na YouTube. Na sesji przedstawiono postępy realizacji projektu Konfiguracji przez społeczność i przedstawiono szczegóły dotyczące kolejnych funkcji, które społeczności będą wkrótce mogły konfigurować. Przedstawiciele z zespołów Moderator Tools, Editing, Web i Campaigns podzielili się swoimi planami wykorzystania Konfiguracji Społeczności w przyszłości. Po tych prezentacjach, zespół WMF Growth odpowiedział na pytania publiczności.
• Habib Mhenni zaprezentował na WikiIndaba 2024 działanie systemu przewodników. Można zobaczyć nagranie.

Bądź informowany na bieżąco

Cotygodniowe nowiny zespołu Growth publikowane są na wiki (po angielsku), skąd dowiesz się więcej o naszej codziennej pracy. Jeżeli chcesz dowiadywać się o działaniach w szeroko pojętej sferze technologii Wikimedia (także prace zespołu Growth), zapraszamy do subskrybowania Tech News.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-44

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Później w listopadzie rozszerzenie Charts zostanie wdrożone na wiki testowe, co ma pomóc w zidentyfikowaniu i naprawie ewentualnych problemów. Trwa również przegląd bezpieczeństwa tego rozszerzenia, po którym będziemy mogli rozpocząć pilotaż na kolejnych wiki. Więcej informacji jest dostępnych w październikowym komunikacie o projekcie, zachęcamy też do zobaczenia dokumentacji i przykładów na Beta Wikipedii.
• Zobacz wszystkie 32 kwestie, zgłoszone przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu. Na przykład, Pediapress.com, zewnętrzna usługa, tworząca książki na podstawie Wikipedii, może korzystać z map Wikimedia, aby dołączać wstępnie wyrenderowane mapy w swoich książkach. [236]

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Wiki mogą korzystać z rozszerzenia Guided Tour, aby pomóc nowicjuszom zrozumieć, jak poprawnie edytować. Od teraz działa ono z trybem ciemnym. Zachęcamy utrzymujących przewodniki do sprawdzenia, czy wszystko wygląda poprawnie po zmianach. Aby naprawić stary błąd, mogą ustawić emitTransitionOnStep na true. Ponadto, dostępna jest flaga allowAutomaticBack, dzięki której można się pozbyć niechcianych przycisków „wstecz”. [237]
• Użycie masowego usuwania spowoduje dodanie odpowiedniego znacznika zmian do wpisu w rejestrze. Dzięki temu przeglądanie i analizowanie usunięć, wykonanych tym narzędziem, powinno być łatwiejsze. [238]

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Stewardzi mogą teraz aktywować globalne autoblokowanie przy nakładaniu globalnych blokad kont. Pomoże to w zwalczaniu nadużyć, dokonywanych przez użytkowników blokowanych już wcześniej globalnie, w tym przez konta tymczasowe, które w innym razie mogłyby unieważnić swoją sesję i tym samym edytować normalnie. Ta funkcjonalność została wdrożona w ramach projektu kont tymczasowych. Możecie dowiedzieć się więcej o postępie wdrażania kluczowych dla tego projektu funkcjonalności. [239]
• Wiki, gdzie dostępne jest rozszerzenie CampaignEvents, mogą korzystać z nowej funkcji Listy współpracy. Pozwala ona edytorom w łatwy sposób odkrywać, jakie wikiprojekty działają na danej wiki. Dziękujemy zespołowi Capaign za tę pracę, będącą cześcią planu rocznego 2024/25. Jeśli jesteście zainteresowani wdrożeniem CampaignEvents na swojej wiki, możecie wykonać kroki ku temu lub odezwać się do użytkownika Udehb-WMF po pomoc.
• Kolor tekstu w czerwonych linkach zostanie nieznacznie zmieniony, aby poprawić ich kolor w trybie jasnym. [240]
• Zobacz wszystkie 32 kwestie, zgłoszone przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu. Na przykład, na wielojęzycznych wiki użytkownicy mogą ukryć tłumaczenia z listy stron linkujących.

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Zrzuty danych XML zostały chwilowo wstrzymane, na czas rozwiązywania problemu z oprogramowaniem. [241]

Inne wiadomości

• Konta tymczasowe zostały wdrożone na sześciu wiki. Dziękujemy zespołowi Trust and Safety Product za ich pracę nad tym. Od następnego tygodnia, konta tymczasowe zostaną włączona na kolejnych siedmiu projektach. Więcej informacji o planach wdrożenia jest dostępnych na odpowiedniej stronie. Jeśli potrzebujecie pomocy z migracją narzędzi na jednej z wiki, gdzie aktualnie wdrażamy ten nowy rodzaj kont, poproście o pomoc użytkownika Udehb-WMF.
• Najnowszy kwartalny newsletter o językach i lokalizacji jest dostępny. Obejmuje: nowe języki obsługiwane w translatewiki lub w MediaWiki; nowe metody wprowadzania z klawiatury dla niektórych języków; szczegóły dotyczące ostatnich i nadchodzących spotkań i wiele innych.

Did you know?

• Query examples:
  • Recently edited lexemes since 'DATE' (in this case Danish since 01.11.2024)
  • List films shot by filming location - try changing the wd: Wikidata item to another country, city, or even a building or natural location.
• Newest WikiProjects:
  • Suriname Public Art - public artworks and memorials in Suriname
  • HDF - A WikiProject for work underway at the The HDF Group (Q106509427) to connect HDF data with Wikidata.
  • French Literary Prizes - Aims to coordinate the development of a database on French literary prizes (prize list, jury members, list of winners). In 2008, Bertrand Labes listed more than 1,500 French-speaking literary prizes. To date, Wikidata has 709, including 24 including the list of winners and awarded works.
• Newest database reports: Languages with the most lexemes without senses (using Toolforge tool 'Orthohin')
• Showcase Items: Rembrandt (Q5598) - Dutch painter and printmaker (1606–1669)
• Showcase Lexemes: ਜੀਵਣ/جِیوَݨ (L740318) - 'life' in Punjabi

Development

• Lua: We changed the Wikibase function getAllStatements logic to behave as getBestStatements. When invoked, it was returning mutable direct-values, now it will return a copy of those values (which are immutable). (phab:T270851)
• Wikibase REST API:
  • Wikibase REST API is now on version 1!
  • We've finished the work on the create Property endpoint so it is now possible to create Properties via the REST API.
• Configuration: We removed 'mainpage' from $wgForceUIMsgAsContentMsg for Wikidata as requested so translations of the main page are available (phab:T184386)
• mul language code: We moved it to the top of the termbox so labels and aliases in mul are visible first (phab:T371802)
• Revision table size: We are investigating the current state of the revision table of Wikidata's database and what the next steps should be to address its issues.

You can see all open tickets related to Wikidata here. If you want to help, you can also have a look at the tasks needing a volunteer.

Weekly Tasks

• Add labels, in your own language(s), for the new properties listed above.
• Contribute to the showcase Item and Lexeme above.
• Summarize your WikiProject's ongoing activities in one or two sentences.
• Help translate or proofread the interface and documentation pages, in your own language!
• Help merge identical items across Wikimedia projects.
• Help write the next summary!

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-46

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Na wiki z zainstalowanym rozszerzeniem Translate tłumaczone wersje kategorii będą automatycznie tworzone przez FuzzyBota. [242]
• Zobacz wszystkie 29 kwestii, zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu. Na przykład udało się wykorzystać rozszerzenie SecurePoll do przeprowadzenia wyborów na administratorów na angielskiej Wikipedii. [243]

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Od wersji 1.44.0-wmf-2 funkcja Lua do obsługi Wikibase getAllStatements będzie działać na podobnej zasadzie jak getBestStatements. To znaczy, zwróci niezmienną kopię wartości, pobranych z elementu. [244]
• Użytkownicy REST API Wikimedia, tacy jak operatorzy botów i utrzymujący narzędzia, mogą być dotknięci trwającymi aktualizacjami. API będzie przekierowywać kilka punktów końcowych z RESTBase do nowszych punktów REST API MediaWiki. Dotyczy to m.in. pozyskiwania metadanych o stronach i wersjach oraz sparsowanej zawartości HTML. Zmiany będą udostępnione w tym tygodniu na test-wiki, a na pozostałych projektach w późniejszym czasie. Zmiana nie powinna wpływać na istniejącą funkcjonalność, ale zachęcamy aktywnych użytkowników REST API do sprawdzenia zachowania ich narzędzi na test-wiki i zgłaszania jakichkolwiek obaw w tasku na Phabricatorze.

Inne wiadomości

• Administratorzy i użytkownicy projektów Wikimedia, gdzie działa Automoderator, mogą teraz monitorować metryki związane z jego akcjami. Ten panel danych w Superset oblicza i agreguje metryki, dotyczące działań Automoderatora w projektach, gdzie jest włączony. Więcej informacji o tych działaniach zespołu Moderator Tools jest dostępnych na stronie dokumentacji. [245]

Spotkania i wydarzenia

• 21 listopada 2024 (8:00 UTC i 16:00 UTC) – Spotkanie ze społecznością Wikimedia Commons, które ma pomóc w priorytetyzacji wsparia w roku fiskalnym 2025-2026. Motywem przewodnim spotkania będzie to, jak treść powinna być zorganizowana w Commons.

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Edytorzy będą teraz ostrzegani przy próbie utworzenia przekierowania do nieistniejącej strony. Pozwoli to zmniejszyć liczbę zerwanych przekierowań na wiki. [246]
• Zobacz wszystkie 42 kwestie, zgłoszone przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu. Na przykład Pywikibot, który automatyzuje pracę z MediaWiki, został na Toolforge zaktualizowany do wersji 9.5.0. [247]

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Na wiki używających wersji przejrzanych, strony tworzone i przenoszone przez użytkowników z odpowiednimi uprawnieniami są oznaczane automatycznie. W ostatnim czasie nie działało to poprawnie, ale poprawki będą wdrożone na wiki w tym tygodniu. Dziękujemy Danielowi i Wargo za pracę nad tym. [248][249]

Inne wiadomości

• Dostępny jest nowy wpis na Diffie (w 15 językach) o kontach tymczasowych. Zachęcamy do przeczytania do i zapoznania się, czym są te konta, jak wpłyną na różne grupy użytkowników i kiedy planujemy wdrożyć je na wstanie wiki.

Spotkania i wydarzenia

Hackathon Wikimedia jest corocznym wydarzeniem zbierającym techniczną społeczność Wikimedia, współpracującą przy istniejących projektach i testującą nowe pomysły.
• Zapraszamy do wzięcia udziału w spotkaniach ze społecznością Wikimedia Commons w tym tygodniu, które pomogą priorytetyzować wsparcie dla Commons w roku 2025/26. Motywem przewodnim spotkań będzie organizacja treści w Commons. Jest to szansa dla wolontariuszy, którzy działają w różnych obszarach, aby porozmawiać wspólnie o rzeczach ważnych dla przyszłości projektu. Spotkania odbędą się 21 listopada o 8:00 i 16:00 UTC.
• Spotkanie społeczności językowej odbędzie się 29 listopada o 16:00 UTC. Podczas niego zostaną przedstawione nowy komunikaty w tym zakresie i rozwiązania problemów technicznych.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-48

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Nowa wersja podświetlania składni w edytorze wikikodu będzie w tym tygodniu udostępniona jako funkcja eksperymentalna. Wprowadza poprawki błędów oraz nowe funkcje, takie jak wsparcie dla języków pisanych od prawej strony, zwijanie szablonów, autouzupełnianie oraz ulepszony panel wyszukiwania. Więcej informacji znajduje się na stronie pomocy.
• Edytor wikikodu 2010 obsługuje teraz typowe skróty klawiszowe, jak Ctrl+B do pogrubiania i Ctrl+I dla kursywy. Pełna lista sześciu skrótów jest dostępna. Dziękujemy SD0001 za to usprawnienie. [250]
• Od 28 listopada, strony wykorzystujące Dyskusje strukturyzowane (Flow) będą dostępne w trybie tylko do odczytu i zostaną zarchiwizowane na następujących wiki: bswiki, elwiki, euwiki, fawiki, fiwiki, frwikiquote, frwikisource, frwikiversity, frwikivoyage, idwiki, lvwiki, plwiki, ptwiki, urwiki, viwikisource, zhwikisource. Jest to jeden z etapów wycofywania Flow. Jeśli potrzebujecie pomocy ze zarchiwizowaniem strony przed tym terminem, skontaktujcie się z Trizek (WMF).
• Zobacz wszystkie 25 kwestii, zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu. Na przykład, operatorzy filtru nadużyć mogą oznaczyć filtr jako chroniony tylko gdy wykorzystuje chronioną zmienną.

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• CodeEditor, wykorzystywany dla stron JavaScript, CSS, JSON i Lua, obsługuje teraz autouzupełnianie. Dziękujemy SD0001 za to usprawnienie. Ta funkcja może być tymczasowo wyłączona na stronie po naciśnięciu Ctrl+, i wyłączeniu „Live Autocompletion”.
• Osoby, które korzystają z systemu Graphite do śledzenia metryk w utrzymywanych przez siebie narzędziach, powinny dokonać migracji na nowszy system Prometheus. Te osoby powinny sprawdzić ten panel danych i listę w opisie zadania T350592, aby sprawdzić czy zawiera ich narzędzie, oraz przejąć metryki i panele danych, dotyczące ich narzędzi. Migracji lub wyłączenia metryk można potem dokonać według instrukcji we wspomnianym zadaniu na Phabricatorze. Usługa Graphite stanie się tylko do odczytu w kwietniu. [251]
• Raport wydajności NewPP (New PreProcessor) został naprawiony, aby pokazywać faktyczną liczbę elementów Wikidanych, które odczytuje strona. Wcześniej licznik resetował się po osiągnięciu wartości 400. [252]

Spotkania i wydarzenia

• Spotkanie społeczności językowej odbędzie się 29 listopada o 16:00 UTC. Zaprezentowane zostaną tematy takie jak: rozwój klawiatur dla języków, utworzenie Wikipedii w języku mossi, ścieżka wsparcia języków na Wiki Indaba oraz raport ze społeczności języka wayuu o ich doświadczeniach z Inkubatorem i byciem nową społecznością z ostatnich 3 lat. Spotkanie będzie również tłumaczone na żywo na hiszpański.

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. [253]
• 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). [254]
• 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. [255]

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.

Wiadomości techniczne: 2024-50

Najnowsze wiadomości ze środowiska technicznego Wikimedia. Poinformuj innych użytkowników o tych zmianach. Nie wszystkie zmiany będą dotyczyć ciebie lub twojej wiki. Dostępne są tłumaczenia na inne języki.

Przegląd tygodnia

• Współtwórcy dokumentacji technicznej mogą znaleźć zaktualizowane zasoby i nowe sposoby łączenia się ze sobą i zespołem ds. dokumentacji technicznej Wikimedia na stronie Documentation hub na MediaWiki.org. Strona ta zawiera linki do: zasobów dotyczących pisania i ulepszania dokumentacji, nowego kanału IRC #wikimedia-techdocs na libera.chat, listy przeszłych i nadchodzących wydarzeń związanych z dokumentacją oraz sposobów proszenia o konsultację lub recenzję dokumentacji. Jeśli masz jakieś uwagi lub pomysły na ulepszenie ekosystemu dokumentacji, skontaktuj się z zespołem ds. dokumentacji technicznej.

Komunikaty dla edytorów

Zmiana układu dla Automatycznego pomocnika

• Później w tym tygodniu Automatyczny pomocnik w wersji na komputer zostanie przeniesiony do bocznego paska. Ta funkcja, skierowana do nowych edytorów, pomaga im przestrzegać zasad i wytycznych. Zmiana układu tworzy miejsce na prezentowanie ludziom nowych sprawdzeń, które pojawiają się podczas pisania. Wstępne wyniki pokazują, że nowicjusze napotykający Edit Check są 2,2 raza bardziej skłonni do opublikowania edycji, która zawiera przypis i nie zostanie wycofana.
• Rozszerzenie Chart, które pozwala edytorom na tworzenie wizualizacji danych, zostało pomyślnie wdrożone na MediaWiki.org i trzy wiki w ramach pilotażu (Wikipedie: włoska, hiszpańska i hebrajska). Działające przykłady zastosowania można zobaczyć na test-wiki. Zapraszamy też do przeczytania komunikatu z listopada, który zawiera więcej szczegółów.
• Tłumacze na wiki, na których dostępna jest mobilna wersja Tłumaczenia Treści, mogą teraz odkrywać interesujące ich artykuły w kampaniach wikiprojektów, korzystając z kategorii „Wszystkie kolekcje” w funkcji sugestii artykułów. Organizatorzy kampanii w wikiprojektach mogą skorzystać z tej funkcji, aby pomóc tłumaczom w odkrywaniu interesujących ich artykułów, dodając tag <page-collection> </page-collection> do strony z listą artykułów kampanii na Meta-wiki. Dzięki temu artykuły te będzie można znaleźć w narzędziu do tłumaczenia treści. Więcej szczegółowych informacji na temat korzystania z narzędzia i tagu można znaleźć w przewodniku krok po kroku. [256]
• Strona specjalna Masowe usuwanie pozwala teraz wybrać wiele przestrzeni nazw przy wyszukiwaniu stron do usunięcia.
• Masowe usuwanie pokazuje teraz linki do strony użytkownika i do jego stron, które pozostały po masowym usuwaniu. Przyspiesza to dalsze akcje administracyjne. Dziękujemy Chlod i zespołowi Moderator Tools za te usprawnienia. [257]
• Zespół Editing pracuje nad ułatwieniem wypełniania szablonów cytowań do archive.org przy użyciu Citoida. Zachęcamy społeczności do dodania już teraz dwóch parametrów (archiveUrl i archiveDate) do TemplateData w szablonach cytowania, które wypełnia Citoid. Dostępny jest przykład zmiany w szablonie i lista szablonów cytowania. [258]
• Jedna nowa wiki została utworzona: Wikipodróże po indonezyjsku (voy:id:) [259]
• W zeszłym tygodniu wszystkie wiki miały przez 30–45 minut problemy z obsługą stron dla zalogowanych użytkowników i części wylogowanych. Było to spowodowane problemem z bazą danych. Badanie przyczyn nadal trwa. [260]
• Zobacz wszystkie 19 kwestii, zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu. Na przykład, naprawiono błąd w sugerowaniu linków. Wcześniej, lista sekcji, gdzie nie należy dodawać linków była w niektórych sytuacjach częściowo ignorowana. [261][262]

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• Codex, system wzornictwa dla Wikimediów, jest teraz we wczesnej fazie implementacji w PHP. Jest on dostępny do ogólnego użytku w rozszerzeniach MediaWiki i narzędziach na Toolforge za pośrednictwem Composera, a wkrótce będzie dostępny dla core MediaWiki. Więcej informacji można znaleźć w dokumentacji. Podziękowania dla Doğu za inspirację i wiele wkładu w bibliotekę. [263]
• Użytkownicy Wikimedia REST API, tacy jak operatorzy botów i opiekunowie narzędzi, mogą zostać dotknięci trwającymi aktualizacjami. 4 grudnia zespół MediaWiki Interfaces rozpoczął przekierowywanie punktów końcowych dla metadanych stron i wersji oraz wyrenderowanego HTML na testwiki z RESTbase do analogicznych punktów końcowych MediaWiki REST API. Zespół zachęca aktywnych użytkowników tych punktów końcowych do zweryfikowania zachowania swoich narzędzi na testwiki i zgłaszania wszelkich wątpliwości w powiązanym zgłoszeniu na Phabricatorze przed końcem roku. Podobne zmiany zostaną wprowadzone na pozostałych wiki na początku stycznia. Zmiany te są częścią prac nad zastąpieniem przestarzałego systemu RESTBase.
• Zapraszamy do wypełnienia Ankiety satysfakcji deweloperów 2024. Jest skierowana do wszystkich, którzy tworzą oprogramowanie w ekosystemie Wikimediów, w tym członków społeczności wiki. Ankieta jest otwarta do 3 stycznia 2025. Dostępna jest polityka prywatności.
• W tym tygodniu nie będzie nowej wersji MediaWiki. [264]

Spotkania i wydarzenia

• Następne z serii spotkań Fundacji Wikimedia ze społecznością Wikimedia Commons odbędzie się 12 grudnia o 8:00 UTC oraz o 16:00 UTC. Tematem przewodnim będą nowe multimedia i nowi twórcy. Zapraszamy do udziału użytkowników z wszystkich wiki.

Przegląd tygodnia

• Jeśli jesteście zainteresowani usprawnieniem zarządzania wydarzeniami na waszej wiki, zapraszamy do zapoznania się z rozszerzeniem CampaignEvents. Dostarcza ono funkcji takich jak obsługa rejestracji na wydarzenia, promocja wydarzeń i wikiprojektów, ułatwienia w znajdowaniu potencjalnych uczestników oraz więcej – a to wszystko bezpośrednio na wiki. Jeśli organizujesz wydarzenia lub uważasz, że twoja wiki może skorzystać z tego rozszerzenia, możesz rozpocząć dyskusję nad jego wdrożeniem na waszą wiki. Więcej informacji jest dostępnych na stronie ze statusem wdrożenia.

Komunikaty dla edytorów

• Użytkownicy aplikacji Wikipedii na iOS we Włoszech i Meksyku mogą zobaczyć osobiste podsumowanie roku na Wikipediach w języku włoskim, hiszpańskim i angielskim, w oparciu o ich historię edytowania i czytania.
• Użytkownicy aplikacji Wikipedii w regionach Afryki Subsaharyjskiej i Azji Południowej mogą korzystać z nowej funkcji króliczej nory. Podpowiada ona w polu wyszukiwania hasła na podstawie aktualnie wyświetlanej strony oraz tworzy listę haseł sugerowanych do przeczytania na podstawie ostatnich dwóch odwiedzonych artykułów.
• Na prawie 800 wiki działa bot przypominający o wygaśnięciu uprawnień. Pisze on do osób, posiadających uprawnienia przyznane tymczasowo, informując o nadchodzącym ich wygaśnięciu. Dzięki temu ci użytkownicy mogą zawnioskować o ich odnowienie z odpowiednim wyprzedzeniem. Więcej informacji znajduje się na stronie dokumentacji.
• Następne wydanie Tech News zostanie rozesłane 13 stycznia 2025 z powodu przerwy świąteczno-noworocznej. Dziękujemy wszystkim tłumaczom oraz osobom, które zamieszczały wiadomości i dzieliły się swoimi opiniami.
• Zobacz wszystkie 27 kwestii, zgłoszonych przez społeczność, które naprawiono w ostatnim tygodniu. Na przykład, poprawiono błąd w aplikacji Wikipedii na Androida, który powodował wyświetlanie tłumaczonych grafik SVG w niepoprawnym języku, po tym jak użytkownik na nie nacisnął.

Komunikaty dla edytorów technicznych

• W następnym tygodniu nie będzie nowej wersji MediaWiki. Wdrożenia zostaną wznowione 14 stycznia. [265]
