Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- In notifications, the icon for Notices has been changed from a speech-bubble icon () to a tray icon () for consistency. The Alerts icon has been redesigned too. The colors have been changed for accessibility. [1]
Problems
- If you use the wikEd gadget, changes you made were not kept when you switched from the wikitext editor to the visual editor while you were editing. This has now been fixed. [2]
Changes this week
- Wikimedia search will now ignore question marks at the end of the sentences or words you use when you search. Until now the question mark was just a wildcard. [3]
- On Commons, UploadWizard will now be available on mobile, rather than just the old upload form. This should reduce the workload for the community in reviewing images. [4]
- When you edit with the visual editor a puzzle symbol tells you there is an invisible template in the article. It will now mention the name of the template. [5]
- The button to read something in another language will move for mobile users. This will happen on 9 August. [6]
- When someone mentions you and links to your user page you get a notification. You will now get a notification when you mention yourself this way. [7]
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 August. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 August. It will be on all wikis from 11 August (calendar).
- A message on Notifications panel will invite users to try Special:Notifications page. [8]
Meetings
- You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on August 9 at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Dunno if you've already seen it, but if you haven't you might be interested in this... Cheers! --IJBall (contribs • talk) 16:27, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
- @IJBall: I haven't seen the trailer yet, but I've heard about season 2 and it's already in the article. nyuszika7h (talk) 16:28, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
- The trailer mentions two new characters by name (but unfortunately doesn't ID the actresses playing them...). --IJBall (contribs • talk) —Preceding undated comment added 16:30, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
- @IJBall: Yeah, I guess we'll just have to wait until August 12 to confirm it (though someone else has tried to add Ember's actress earlier – unsourced, of course). Also this suggests the second season will have 6 episodes, though it's not verified and the release date is close anyway so we'll also find that out for sure soon. nyuszika7h (talk) 16:58, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
