Tech News: 2023-03

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

Problems

The URLs in "prev" links on page history now contain diff=prev&oldid=[revision ID] in place of diff=[revision ID]&oldid=[revision ID]. This is to fix a problem with links pointing to incorrect diffs when history was filtered by a tag. Some user scripts may break as a result of this change. [1]

Changes later this week

The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 17 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 18 January. It will be on all wikis from 19 January (calendar).
Some changes to the appearance of talk pages have only been available on Talk: and User talk: namespaces. These will be extended to other talk namespaces, such as Wikipedia talk:. They will continue to be unavailable in non-talk namespaces, including Wikipedia: pages (e.g., at the Village Pump). You can change your preferences (beta feature). [2]
On Wikisources, when an image is zoomed or panned in the Page: namespace, the same zoom and pan settings will be remembered for all Page: namespace pages that are linked to a particular Index: namespace page. [3]
The Vector 2022 skin will become the default for the English Wikipedia desktop users. The change will take place on January 18 at 15:00 UTC. Learn more.

Future changes

The 2023 edition of the Community Wishlist Survey, which invites contributors to make technical proposals and vote for tools and improvements, starts next week on 23 January 2023 at 18:00 UTC. You can start drafting your proposals in the CWS sandbox.

Parameter you may find useful

In {{Sister project links}}, you can set |auto=1 and have wikidata fill in the links, e.g.:

This is more convenient than specifying a lot of "no" arguments. — hike395 (talk) 09:34, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Another template you may find useful is {{Commons}}. That template uses wikidata to determine whether there is a gallery or a category over at Commons, and link to it. You don't need to use {{Commons category}} unless you actively do not want to link to the gallery. — hike395 (talk) 09:45, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:Hike395 after reading your pov and template doc of commons, its better than commons category. i will try to use Sister project links where it is necessary. thank you. <_>jindam, vani (talk) 12:46, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

URLREQ

Thanks for finding all these there are probably thousands! They take quite a bit of time and work, one domain can take a full day if large enough. If there are too many I may get discouraged! Give me some time to catch up, thanks. Or if you want, create a sub-page somewhere to record them then move to URLREQ when I have spare cycles. -- GreenC 02:51, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Ratan Bai

Hello, Jindam vani. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Ratan Bai".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 04:54, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
