Latest news from the Wikimedia Collaboration team, about Notifications, Flow and Edit Review Improvements. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you.

What's new?

The Collaboration team is delighted to publish its first newsletter! Your feedback is welcome.

This quarter the team will focus on improving Special:RecentChanges and create a ReviewStream, a new feed designed to improve the edit-review process. Both are part of the new Edit Review Improvements project.

Notifications [ More information · Help pages ]

Recent changes

  • Documentation concerning Notifications types has been updated. That page is ready for translations. [1]
  • For developers, how to create a new Notification type has been updated. [2]
  • Tools owners will be notified when OAuth app changes state. [3]
  • When you edit text and mention a new username they are notified if you add your signature. Before this only happened under certain conditions. [4]
  • Users are notified if they are mentioned in a section where you add your own signature even if you edit more than one section. Before, users were not notified if you edited more than one section in one edit. [5]
  • Sometimes when you mention another user they don't get a notification. Now you can get a notification when you successfully send out a mention to someone or be told if they did not get a notification. This is an opt-in option in your preferences. [6][7]
  • On Notifications, the badge is colored if you have some notifications. If you see these notifications, the badge will turn grey on all wikis instead of just the local one. [8]

Problems

  • For some users, cross-wiki notifications haven't been working properly. The count has been wrong when only cross-wiki notifications were present. The cross-wiki bundle has been showing only the names of wikis and not the actual notifications. It has been fixed. [9][10]
  • When a title was created with some wikitext inside of it, Notifications were not linking that title when they were mentioned. This is now fixed. [11]
  • Some Notifications messages were not supporting {{GENDER:}}. This is now fixed. [12]

Future changes

  • On Special:Notifications, pages and counts related to disabled notification types will not be shown anymore. [13]

Flow [ More information · Help pages ]

Recent changes

  • Flow is available as a Beta feature on Greek Wikipedia. [14]
  • A satisfaction survey was conducted concerning Flow in September 2016. Results will be published in December 2016. [15]
  • Wikitext interface for Flow is now using a monospaced font. [16]
  • It is now possible to moderate a Flow topic that have been resolved without re-opening it. [17]
  • It is now possible to watch and unwatch topics directly from the Notification panel. [18]

Problems

  • It is not possible to enable or disable Flow as a Beta feature on wikis where that option is available. This is under investigation. [19]
  • Some Flow messages were not supporting {{GENDER:}}. This is now fixed. [20]

Future changes

  • Communities that have Flow enabled manually on user talk pages will be asked to move on to a Beta feature activation to simplify the process. [21]
  • Notifications related to Flow will be grouped on your Notifications preferences. It will be easier to choose which Notifications you want to have from Flow. [22]

Edit Review Improvements [ More information ]

Recent changes

  • Informations about Edit Review Improvements project have been published. That page is ready for translations. [23]
  • ReviewStream feed product description is available. ReviewStream is a machine-readable feed that’s designed to be used by a variety of edit-review tools.

Future changes

Miscellaneous

  • On that newsletter, some particular items are highlighted by an icon, to ease reading. The For translators icon highlights items that may interest volunteer translators and the Advanced item icon highlights items that are relevant for readers with technical knowledge.

What's new?

Our quarterly goal is to add filters to the Recent Changes page, that show ORES good-faith and damaging tests and filters around new users. The work on this is proceeding mostly as planned. We hope it shall be available as a Beta feature (only on wikis where ORES is available as a Beta feature) before the end of the quarter.

Flow [More information • Help pages]

Recent changes

  • Notifications concerning Flow are no longer all grouped together in your preferences. The "Edits to my talk page" category will now include Flow notifications about your user talk page (if your user talk page uses Flow), and the "Mentions" category will now include mentions on Flow pages. Previously, all notifications related to Flow were grouped together in the "Structured Discussion" category. [28]
  • The orange bar will now also be displayed when a message is posted on a your user talk page if your talk page uses Flow; previously, it was only displayed if you had a wikitext talk page. [29]

What's new?

A decision has been made about how the Recent Changes filtering scheme will affect current ORES beta feature users. When this new filtering system rolls out as part of the beta, it will replace the current ORES display on the Recent Changes page. That means the automatic color coding, the red “r” symbol and the “hide probably good edits” filter will go away, to be replaced by the new, more nuanced set of filters and user-defined color coding. All other pages that have ORES features, like Watchlist and Related Changes, will remain as they are now for ORES beta users. We think those pages could also benefit from the new filtering system. But we'll wait to see how users react to the beta test—and make any necessary changes—before we start spreading the new UI around. That's the plan as it currently stands. As always, please let us know if you have any thoughts, in any language.

What's new?

Flow satisfaction survey’s results are available. The survey provides useful data on what users like and don't like about Flow. This information will be helpful in discussions recently begun as part of the editing team's Annual Plan process. As the editing team investigates its priorities for next fiscal year (which begins in July), many ideas for improvements have been suggested, including projects to research the future of wiki discussions and to fix Flow's shortcomings.

Edit Review Improvements [More information • Help pages]

Notifications [More information • Help pages]

  • Flow notifications category in the Notification Preferences page will be changed from (in English) "Flow" to "Flow Discussion". Messages that have to be updated on TranslateWiki are echo-category-title-flow-discussion and echo-pref-tooltip-flow-discussion. [38]
  • Mentions were not recognized when more than one section is added during the same edit or when an new section was added and a change (new message or deletion) was done in another section. This is now solved. [39]

Flow [More information • Help pages]

  • Rich text mode is now the default in Flow replies. Some inconsistencies used to exist. Now the preference between visual mode and wikitext mode is updated when a content change is made in the selected editor, literally when it is typed in, not when it is saved or when the editor is switched. [40]
  • We plan to change Flow's URLs to make them more human readable. Your feedback is still welcome, the conversation will be closed on February 28th.

Future changes

  • We will release the ⧼eri-rcfilters-beta-label⧽ beta option on Portuguese and Polish Wikipedias March 28. This beta option adds powerful filtering and other tools as well as an improved filtering interface to the Recent Changes page (and Recent Changes Linked). To try out these new tools on these two wikis, go to the Beta tab of the Preferences page (after the 28th) and select ⧼eri-rcfilters-beta-label⧽.
  • In the weeks following the initial release to Polish and Portuguese Wikipedias, the New Filters for Edit Review beta will go out to the following list of Wikipedias in waves (schedule to be done):
    • Persian, Dutch, Russian, Turkish, Czech Wikipedias and Wikidata. [41]
    • English Wikipedia. [42]
    • All other wikis. [43]

Flow [More information • Help pages]

Recent changes

  • <math> <hiero> <score> <syntax> <source> <ref> shortcuts are now working on Flow visual editing mode. Type a shortcut in the visual editing mode will open the control panel for the chosen option. [44]
    • Concerning <ref>, footnotes will be automatically included at the end of the message, unless if they are displayed elsewhere in the message by the appropriate template.
  • Flow has been removed from Metawiki. [45]

Future changes

  • The way you switch between wikitext and the visual editors in the desktop view has changed. It will be a drop-down menu. This is the same as in the mobile view. [46]

What's new?

The fourth fiscal quarter began the first of this month, and Collaboration Team has begun work on our new quarterly goals. In the coming months, we'll be working to release the New Filters for Edit Review beta on all wikis and then to improve the beta as much as possible based on user feedback. On that score, we're planning a round of user interviews on the new tools in May to get detailed information about usability and usefulness. If you've tried the new features and have thoughts, please share them with us in any language.

Our other focus right now is to look at what changes will be needed to spread the new filtering interface to other review pages, especially Watchlist. We're also exploring how to incorporate the tools we didn't include in the new interface in this round, like the Tag Filters, time-frame selector and Namespace filter.

Edit Review Improvements [More information • Help pages]

Recent changes

  • New Filters for Edit review are now available on Polish, Portuguese, Persian, Russian and Turkish Wikipedias as a Beta feature. French Wikipedia and Mediawikiwiki have the filters as a Beta feature too, but without the quality and intent filters. [47]
  • Special:RecentChangesLinked now displays a message when no results are found for a given combination of filters. [48]

Problems

  • Polish Wikipedia is experiencing an issue with predictions (quality and intent filters using ORES). The different predictions are in conflict. An edit can be considered as "good" and "bad" at the same time, and the filter levels are somewhat redundant. We have formulated a plan to address this and are working on a fix, which is deployed progressively on Polish Wikipedia. [49]
  • The issue on Polish Wikipedia is shared by a few other wikis: Dutch, Czech and Hebrew, and Wikidata. The deployment for those wikis has been postponed to Tuesday, May 9. Wikis without this predictions problem have been deployed or will be deployed with no change on the schedule. [50]
  • Interestingly, the "problem" with those wikis is that they perform better than we anticipated. Once the fix is in place, the tools will work with particular simplicity on these wikis.

Future changes

  • English Wikipedia and all wikis without ORES prediction services will get the New Filters for Edit review on Monday, April 24. [51]
  • All remaining wikis will get the New Filters for Edit review on Tuesday, May 9. [52]
  • Wikidata edits will be added as a type of change on New Filters for Edit review. [53]

Notifications [More information • Help pages]

  • Notifications badges were overlapping other tabs on Internet Explorer 11 and Firefox 3.6, using MonoBook skin. This is now fixed. [54]

Flow [More information • Help pages]

  • Flow is now available as a Beta feature on French Wikiversity. [55]
  • All Flow documentation is now available on one page gathering all information, to help users to search for an information.
  • Flow's AbuseFilter integration now allows blocking a particular user from participating on a talk page, or any topic within it. [56]

Latest news from the Wikimedia Collaboration team, about Notifications, Flow and Edit Review Improvements. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you.

What's new?

  • “New Filters for Edit Review” beta released: As of May 9, the New Filters for Edit Review beta has been released to all wikis. The beta lets users review edits on Recent Changes using an easier and more powerful interface and many new tools, including user-defined highlighting and, on some wikis, predictive filters powered by ORES, a machine-learning program. You must opt in to the beta to try it out.
  • More features coming soon: The New Filters are still very much in development. In addition to fixing bugs and making adjustments (here’s our current to-do list), we’re actively adding new features, many at users’ request. A few notable additions you can look for this month: A cool tool for saving filter settings; a “Watchlisted pages” filter; a “Flagged Revisions” filter (for some wikis only); a “Last revision” filter.
  • Tell us your ideas—but don’t wait: The team is focused right now in making changes to the New Filters beta. But in a few months, we’ll be moving on to other projects. So now is the time to give the new tools a try and then tell us what you think. What works well? What could make things better for you?
  • In the medium-term: By the end of summer, we plan to complete a suite of improvements that will, among other things: incorporate all the remaining Recent Changes tools into the new filtering interface; create new ways for reviewers to move back and forth through the filter queue; implement a “Reverted” filter; and, finally, bring the New Filters UI and tools to Watchlist.
  • Have time for a talk? We're looking for people we can interview about their experiences with the new beta. If you’re a regular user of Recent Changes and have tried the new features—and if you can spare an hour to chat in English with our design researcher—please email dchen@wikimedia.org with the subject line “user interview.” Let us know how to get in touch with you and what time zone (city, country...) you’re in.
  • Wish you had ORES on your wiki? Some of the more interesting New Filters for Edit Review features are dependent on the machine-learning service ORES, which is available only on a small but growing list of wikis. For ORES to work on a wiki, volunteers from that wiki must train it by scoring some thousands of sample edits. Here’s a link that explains how the process works and how you can get it started on your wiki.

Edit Review Improvements [More information • Help pages]

Recent changes

  • Many Recent Changes pages have on top a list of links. We plan to integrate those links in a collapsible menu. You are invited to comment the 3 proposals we have drafted on Phabricator.
  • On wikis where Flagged Revisions are used, an edit highlighted as bad by ORES will not be highlighted anymore when the edit is reviewed by someone. [57]
  • You can highlight pages that are in your Watchlist in Recent Changes. 3 different filters are available: in watchlist, not in watchlist, new changes in watchlist. [58]
  • Wikidata, Dutch, Czech, Hebrew, Estonian and Finnish Wikipedia now have the new filters available as a Beta feature, and ORES is enabled by default on those wikis. [59]
  • All wikis now have the Recent changes Filters as a Beta feature. [60]
  • Users are invited to opt in to the Recent changes Filters beta when they visit the Recent Changes page. [61]
  • On wikis that have ORES predictions enabled by default, it is now possible to choose how to display the predictions in watchlist and recent changes pages. [62]

Future changes

  • It will be possible soon to save and retreive your favorite filters combinations. [63]
  • We are working on adding filter groups for last revisions, edits from Wikidata and reverted edits. [64][65][66]

Notifications [More information • Help pages]

Recent changes

  • When an article you have created is linked to a Wikidata item, you can receive a notification. Wikidata and all the Wikivoyages have it since May 9th, other wikis will follow. [67]
  • Special:Notifications tabs is now set to "Unread" if there are any unread messages. [68]

Flow [More information • Help pages]

Recent changes

  • You can enable Flow as a Beta feature on your talk page on Arabic Wikipedia and Catalan Wikiquote. [69][70]
  • When you send more than 50 mentions on one Flow post, you are now warned you have hit the limit. [71]

What's new?

Integrated Filters

  • The team is moving full speed ahead on a follow-up project to the New Filters for Edit Review beta dubbed "Integrated Filters." The name refers to the fact that we are integrating the Recent Changes tools that currently remain in the old user interface (like Namespace and Tag filters), along with some tools and capabilities from Watchlist and elsewhere, into the new Recent Changes interface.
  • You can get an overview of the Integrated Filters projects, and the general release strategy, on the description page of the project Phabricator board. Among the more interesting new capabilities:
    • Category filters: We'll be adding the ability to filter by category. This is a little tricky, since wiki categories often work in a somewhat counter-intuitive way, with the broadest categories returning the fewest results—because categories like "Science" or "Art" tend to contain not articles but other categories. So we're exploring solutions where a category search will crawl at least a layer or two down the category treat to, hopefully, bring back more useful results. [72]
    • User filters: We're adding the ability to filter by any username, similar to what's available already on the the User Contributions page. [73]
    • Live update: Users will have the ability to look at a more or less continuous flow of changes. This is a much requested feature that we expect will open up new possibilities for Recent Changes, especially for patrollers who want to see vandalism or other changes as they happen. While the updates won't truly be "live," the page updates will be frequent, similar to the way real-time tools (like RTRC or LiveRC) works. [74]

Edit Review Improvements [More information • Help pages]

Have time for a talk?

  • We're looking for people we can interview about their experiences with the new beta. If you’re a regular user of Recent Changes and have tried the new features—and if you can spare an hour to chat in English with our design researcher—please email dchen@wikimedia.org with the subject line “user interview.” Let us know how to get in touch with you and what time zone (city, country...) you’re in.

Recent changes

  • It is now possible to save your favorite filters sets by using bookmarks. [75]
  • It is possible to filter only the last edits done on a page on the Recent Changes page. [76]
  • ORES review tool has been deployed to French Wikipedia. This wiki can use predictions filters. To have the predictions filters on your wiki, you need to work on the labeling campaign for your wiki or request it. [77]
  • There were some issues with loading highlighted results when the URL was copied and pasted. This is now fixed. [78]
  • A "Watchlisted pages" filter group now lets reviewers use Recent Changes, and all its tools, to patrol changes to pages they've Watchlisted. If you have any feedback about how useful this is nor isn't—especially given that we plan to add the new filtering interface to the Watchlist page — let us know.
  • There were issues with the tools still in the older filtering UI — like the Namespace filter and the number of results selectors. These have been fixed. [79]

Future changes

  • Integration of new features on recent changes pages is planned. They will include menus to filter users, tagged edits, categories and namespaces. See the "What's new" section above for more information.
  • Now that users can save filter settings, and declare any settings they want as the Recent Changes page default, we'll be reviewing the RC page Preferences with an eye to getting rid of as many as we can. For instance, if you want to hide minor edits or Category changes by default, you can now do that right on the RC page, instead of having to go to a separate page to manage defaults.
  • On many Recent Changes Pages, the community has defined a large number of links that are displayed directly under the page name (example on Polish Wikipedia). Many of these links are unrelated or only peripherally related to Recent Changes, add informational complexity of the RC page. Research shows that they are used only rarely or never. We want to clarify RecentChanges page functionality, so we plan to put the links into a collapsible panel.
    • Should the panel default to open or closed? That is, should the default state (which users can change with one click) show the links as hidden or displayed? Let us know what you think.
    • The most used links are shortcuts to certain type of edits, (Mobile, Newcomers...). Users can already save their favorite filter settings to the Saved Settings menu, which should make some of the existing links redundant. We plan to provide default bookmarks for the most used filters combinations. [80]

Notifications [More information • Help pages]

Future changes

  • Wikimedia Deutschland have scheduled the notifications of Wikibase notifications to Wikimedia projects: all the Wikivoyages on May 3; all the Wikipedias except en, fr, de on May 30; all other projects on June 13 and Wikipedias en, fr, de on September 5. [81]
  • It will be possible to restrict who can send you notifications. [82]

Flow [More information • Help pages]

Recent changes

  • Flow has been activated on all talk pages on Catalan Wikiquote. [83]

Future changes

  • On the Beta feature page, the activation message has been review to emphase the fact that the unstructured wikitext page will be archived. [84]

Latest news from the Wikimedia Collaboration team, about Notifications, Flow and Edit Review Improvements. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you.

What's new?

The team is currently working on three main goals, which we expect to complete this summer or in September:

  1. Graduate New Filters for Edit Review core features out of beta:
    • The core New Filters features slated to become standard parts of Recent Changes are the ones that have been out in beta for a while and fully road-tested by the community.
    • These include the new filtering interface, the machine-learning filter groups “User Intent Predictions” and “Quality Predictions,” the highlighting tools, the ability to save your filter settings for later use, and the new filter groups: “Watchlisted pages,” “Last revision” and "User registration and experience."
    • There’s a list of “blocker” tasks we need to complete before these features are ready to graduate out of beta.
    • We expect to release those features by default in September. A more precise message will be sent to communities. If you have questions about it, you can write a message on Mediawiki.org, in any language.
  2. Extend the New Filters to Watchlist: The Watchlists of very active editors can include thousands of pages. To help these busy folks keep up with their work, we’re adding the New Filters UX and tools to Watchlist. The Watchlist and Recent Changes pages are similar, but there is some work involved in adapting the tools to their new setting. That work should be ready some time in late summer or early fall. Stay tuned for an announcement!
  3. Continuing work on “Integrated Filters”:
    • While the New Filters for Edit Review beta brought probably 70% of the old-style Recent Changes features into the new user interface, it left some behind—like the Tag and Namespace filters and the controls for the number of days searched and number of results presented. As the name is meant to suggest, “Integrated filters” integrates those old-style tools into the new UI.
    • It also adds some new tools users have asked for, such as:
      • “Live updates” which provides a near real-time automatic refresh of the Recent Changes page.
      • Category filters, which enable users to search by category.
      • User filters, which let you define searches that include or exclude edits by particular users.

What's new?

The Collaboration team has announced the start of a new project: In-Context Help and Onboarding. The idea is to improve retention of new wiki editors by giving them short tutorials and other training experiences related to, and triggered by, their current activities on the wikis (that’s the “in context” part). The project follows from the conclusions of the New Editor Experiences research. The work is in its very early stages, but we’d like to hear from people with ideas on the subject—particularly if you have experience supporting or training new contributors.

Latest message for Collaboration team newsletter; Growth team's newsletter invite

[edit]

Hello

Sorry to use English if that's not your favorite language.

You are receiving this message because you were reading the Collaboration team newsletter.

The Collaboration team doesn't longer exists. That team was working on building features that encourage collaboration. This is the latest message for that newsletter.

The Growth Team, formed in July 2018, supports some former Collaboration projects. The Growth Team's main objective is to ease new editors' first steps on wikis, through software changes. You can discover all objectives and missions of the Growth team on its page.

If you wish to be informed about Growth team's updates about easing new users first steps, you can subscribe to the new list to get updates. The first message from Growth –with a call for feedback on a new project– will be posted in a few days!

If you have questions or you want to share experiences made on your wiki about new users' first steps, please post them on the team talk page, in any language.

On behalf of the Growth team, Trizek (WMF) (talk) 10:29, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Further Lenovo Edits - Revision to Lenovo's History Section

[edit]

Hi PauAmma.

You previously reviewed some changes I proposed to the Lenovo page with a disclosed conflict of interest. I wanted to see if you were also willing to review some trims I suggested here to the extremely detailed History section. There’s no rush and we can do it in pieces, but given your prior participation, I wanted to check-in before poking around for another editor that might consider the trims.

page parameter of cite book

[edit]

In a recent update to Text editor you added |page=31 to a {{cite book}} template. From your comment it was clear that you meant p. 3-11, which is numbered 31 in the PDF but not in the actual manual. Either |page=3-11 with |section-url=http://bitsavers.org/pdf/univac/1100/exec/UP-4058_EXEC_II_Programmers_Ref_Man_1966.pdf#page=31 or |page=[[http://bitsavers.org/pdf/univac/1100/exec/UP-4058_EXEC_II_Programmers_Ref_Man_1966.pdf#page=31 3-11]] would be appropriate. Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 17:41, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the hint. We'll see if it sticks until next time I need it. The Crab Who Played With The Sea (talk) 17:58, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Moral character matters

[edit]

It is important to have role models to form one's ethical character. Malala Yousafzai, by virtue of her parrhesia, is one of my role models. If I had my druthers, talk pages would be a place to discuss the merits (or demerits) of personalities in order to shape one's own character. I understand keeping it facts-pertinent but it is a fact that people learn how to be good through good role models. I am just trying to be a better person.

So while I am not in contention with you for reverting my edit, I do have to lodge, well, not exactly a complaint but a point of slight disagreement. If you know, whom do I make recourse to to get an exception to the WP:NOTFORUM rule? Wikipedia should be a place where we all grow morally together. The virtue policy is the only success policy. SpicyMemes123 (talk) 23:09, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your best bet, I think, is probably to start a request for comments in the talk page for What Wikipedia is not. The Crab Who Played With The Sea (talk) 23:43, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I will do that soon. SpicyMemes123 (talk) 20:55, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
