Correct title悖論

編輯

用Template:Correct title嘅文，改文嗰陣有提示： Display title "xxxxxx" was ignored since it is not equivalent to the page's actual title. 。點解要ignore呢？若果Display title同page's actual title一樣，使鬼用Template:Correct title咩？--Johnarkeung (傾偈) 2019年1月5號 (六) 11:45 (UTC)[回覆]

嗰幾版有個『#』號喺裏面，嗰個符號用唔到做標題名，所以就會用到上面所提及到嘅模。 Shinjiman ⇔ ♨ 2019年1月5號 (六) 16:36 (UTC)[回覆]

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

Tech News writers, editors and translators wish you a pleasant 2019 year.

Recent changes

  • RelatedSites extension has been undeployed. It was used to create interwiki links on Wikivoyage, now handled by Wikidata. [1]
  •   MediaWiki logstash logging is moving to a new infrastructure. This is an ongoing deployment. [2]
  •   codesearch.wmflabs.org has been updated, with new and updated repositories and a new search options for code. [3]
  •   On several wikis, an account named "濫用過濾器" has been created on December 17 to perform some technical maintenance on AbuseFilter. This account has sysop rights but it's a system user and no human can use it. The account already existed on wikis where AbuseFilter can perform blocks, which are issued using this account. See T212268 for more information and future plans.

Problems

  •   In AbuseFilter, the "控頻" action takes three parameters: count, period and groups. They must now strictly respect the requirements listed on mediawiki.org. A list of broken filters is on Phabricator. If you're familiar with AbuseFilter, please take a look and fix them. [4]

Changes later this week

  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from January 8. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from January 9. It will be on all wikis from January 10 (calendar).

Meetings

  • Search Platform Office Hours is rescheduled to January 9. Check the details for time and date.

FileExporter beta feature

編輯
 
Coming soon: the beta feature FileExporter

A new beta feature will soon be released on all wikis: The FileExporter. It allows exports of files from a local wiki to Wikimedia Commons, including their file history and page history. Which files can be exported is defined by each wiki's community: Please check your wiki's configuration file if you want to use this feature.

The FileExporter has already been a beta feature on mediawiki.org, meta.wikimedia, deWP, faWP, arWP, koWP and on wikisource.org. After some functionality was added, it's now becoming a beta feature on all wikis. Deployment is planned for January 16. More information can be found on the project page.

As always, feedback is highly appreciated. If you want to test the FileExporter, please activate it in your user preferences. The best place for feedback is the central talk page. Thank you from Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes project.

編輯

維基媒體技術社群發出最新技術新聞。請將以下變更講畀其他用戶知。當然，唔係全部變更都會影響閣下。翻譯喺度。

最近更新

  • 你而家可以喺内容翻譯架生度用Google翻譯。 [5][6]
  • You can now add captions to files on Commons. Captions are short descriptions of the file. They can be translated to all languages we use. They can't use wikitext markup.
  • 以前，括住嘅HTML屬性後面要有個空格。而家唔駛嘞，亦即係話就算你無改到某部分嘅内容，儲存咗之後嗰樣都可能會有唔同。 [7][8]
  •   Templates with <templatestyles> could not show the difference between the live template and the sandbox version when they were tested. This has now been fixed. <templatestyles> has a new wrapper parameter now. You can use it for selectors like .mw-parser-output <wrapper parameter value> <selector from CSS page>. [9]

問題

  • When you see an edit in the recent changes feed or in the history of a page some of them have tags. Some tags are added automatically. You can also add tags manually. Tags for edits that have been added manually can be edited. This didn't work for a little while. This has now been fixed. [10]

今個禮拜遲啲嘅更新

  • You can move files from your wiki to Wikimedia Commons and keep the file history with the new FileExporter. It will be a beta feature on all wikis from 16 January. If you want to test it you activate it and check your wiki's configuration file.
  • Users who could cause more damage to the wikis if someone took over their account have to have more secure passwords. This includes administrators and other user groups. They can't use passwords that are in a list of common passwords. Accounts with common passwords are easy to take over. The list of common passwords was made longer a few weeks ago and has a different error message. Some user groups have been added to those who can't use common passwords. This is to protect all accounts with user rights that could cause damage. [11]
  •   2016年起唔建議再用嘅濫用過濾器變數minor_edit經已停用，唔會用得到。你可以喺Special:AbuseFilter度搵重用緊呢個變數嘅過濾器，兼且整返好佢哋。
  •   測試wiki同埋mediawiki.org會喺1月15號升級做新版嘅MediaWiki。其它唔係維基百科嘅wiki同埋部份維基百科會喺1月16號升級。其餘wiki會喺1月17號升級（睇日曆）。

遲啲嘅更新

  •   In the future users can be blocked from editing a page or a namespace. What a "block" means will change. This means that you might have to update tools you maintain that handle blocks. [12]

No editing for 30 minutes on 17 January

編輯
You will not be able to edit the wikis for up to 30 minutes on 17 January 07:00 UTC. This is because of a database problem that has to be fixed immediately. You can still read the wikis. Some wikis are not affected. They don't get this message. You can see which wikis are not affected on this page. Most wikis are affected. The time you can not edit might be shorter than 30 minutes. /Johan (WMF)

問題

  • 用即見編輯器改模嘅時候，有時候會變成一行過，搞到其他用源碼編輯器嘅用戶睇得好唔舒服，亦都搞到睇兩個編輯中間嘅差異好難。呢個問題影響咗喺1月8號至17號期間嘅改動。呢個問題而家整返好咗。 [14]
  • MassMessage is used to post a message to many pages. It has not been working reliably. Some messages have not been posted to everyone. [15][16]
  • 因為有個要即刻整嘅數據庫問題，1月17號 (UTC)有幾分鐘喺絕大部分wiki度改唔到嘢。家下經已整返好。 [17]

Filter走火

編輯

開篇文有「系列」兩字，都誤中黑名單項：「.*列表*」。--Ccviewtv (傾偈) 2019年2月2號 (六) 11:42 (UTC)[回覆]

可唔可以用左邊個「電郵畀呢個用戶」send 段走火嘅源碼俾我跟進下？翹仔 (傾偈) 2019年2月3號 (日) 23:00 (UTC)[回覆]
我可能表達得唔清楚，而家凡親標題有「系列」兩字嘅文都唔畀開，好容易試到：「系列」一開版已經話中黑名單（如果你個admin權override個黑名單，你可以登出試試），我估原意應該係唔畀開「列表」，唔知點解實際連「系列」都封埋。--Ccviewtv (傾偈) 2019年2月9號 (六) 10:55 (UTC)[回覆]
唔該晒。我執返靚個 RegEx，而家應該可以有「系列」。[20] --翹仔 (傾偈) 2019年2月9號 (六) 14:05 (UTC)[回覆]

Talk to us about talking

編輯
 

The Wikimedia Foundation is planning a global consultation about communication. The goal is to bring Wikimedians and wiki-minded people together to improve tools for communication.

We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis, whatever their experience, their skills or their devices.

We are looking for input from as many different parts of the Wikimedia community as possible. It will come from multiple projects, in multiple languages, and with multiple perspectives.

We are currently planning the consultation. We need your help.

We need volunteers to help talk to their communities or user groups.

You can help by hosting a discussion at your wiki. Here's what to do:

  1. First, sign up your group here.
  2. Next, create a page (or a section on a Village pump, or an e-mail thread – whatever is natural for your group) to collect information from other people in your group. This is not a vote or decision-making discussion: we are just collecting feedback.
  3. Then ask people what they think about communication processes. We want to hear stories and other information about how people communicate with each other on and off wiki. Please consider asking these five questions:
    1. When you want to discuss a topic with your community, what tools work for you, and what problems block you?
    2. What about talk pages works for newcomers, and what blocks them?
    3. What do others struggle with in your community about talk pages?
    4. What do you wish you could do on talk pages, but can't due to the technical limitations?
    5. What are the important aspects of a "wiki discussion"?
  4. Finally, please go to Talk pages consultation 2019 on Mediawiki.org and report what you learned from your group. Please include links if the discussion is available to the public.

You can also help build the list of the many different ways people talk to each other.

Not all groups active on wikis or around wikis use the same way to discuss things: it can happen on wiki, on social networks, through external tools... Tell us how your group communicates.

You can read more about the overall process on mediawiki.org. If you have questions or ideas, you can leave feedback about the consultation process in the language you prefer.

Thank you! We're looking forward to talking with you.

  • The new version of the content translation tool will be used for all new translations. The older version will still be used for translations that were started with it. Most users won’t see any change. More than 80% of the published translations are already using the new version. [34]

Problems

  • The editing toolbar sometimes disappears when you scroll on iOS devices. This will be fixed soon. [36]
  • Wikis can over-ride interface messages on-wiki. A problem meant that sometimes an old versions of any changed messages were shown instead. This included the sitenotice and other important parts of the interface. This was fixed at around 2019-03-22 16:00 (UTC). Logged-out users may still get the wrong message.

點樣用wikidata嘅嘢落文章度

編輯

有格式嘅嘢，可以唔使寫出來，只要連得啱，就應該可以自動顯示。例如。

  • 有座標，係咪可以自動顯示呢？咁就唔使特登搞。
  • 有連去圖片分類，咁會自動掛模去分類。
  • 自動生物分類又係咪可行呢？

呢啲嘢爭議較少，又唔使再浪費人力。若果得嘅話，無論寫文定協作，大家都做得有效好多。HenryLi (傾偈) 2019年4月7號 (日) 02:21 (UTC)[回覆]

座標有關嘅應該用{{#property:Pnnn}}就得，可以睇返我之前開過嘅309咤叱系列文章做參攷。 Shinjiman ⇔ ♨ 2019年4月8號 (一) 03:28 (UTC)[回覆]

建議將<center><center>錯誤放落過濾器

編輯

中文維基嗰邊唔知點解好興用「<center><center>」去置中，但呢種語法係錯嘅，皆因無咗end tag（</center>），會觸發Special:LintErrors/missing-end-tag（雖然有大把未清理，不過最好盡量避免增加落去）。有啲人參考中文維基寫文，就好易將錯誤帶埋過嚟，要人執手尾。為免中文維基嘅歪風入侵，建議響過濾器加條規則，阻止用戶加入「<center><center>」。--Kowlooner (傾偈) 2019年4月7號 (日) 15:35 (UTC)[回覆]

加咗入去31號過濾器度，暫時針對住<center>標籤應對，只做警告提醒，睇吓仲有冇其它有關嘅標籤。如果情況未有改善嘅話，可以再收緊佢唔俾保存。 Shinjiman ⇔ ♨ 2019年4月8號 (一) 01:47 (UTC)[回覆]

Recent changes

Problems

  • You will be able read but not edit most wikis for 30 minutes on 11 April at 05:00 (UTC). This is because of a hardware problem. You can see a list of the affected wikis. [41]
  • A map update caused some problems on 29 March and 30 March. It was rolled back. [42]
  • Pages on some Wikivoyages had problems with the top headline. This has been fixed. [43]

Changes later this week

  • When you add an edit summary the VisualEditor will search your recent edit summaries in case you want to re-use one. This works in both the visual and wikitext modes on desktop. It also works on the mobile site. [44]
  • The Wikimedia wikis will get a URL shortener. This will work from 11 April. You can read more. [45]
  •   The {{REVISIONID}} magic word will no longer work. This is for performance reasons. When you preview a page it will return "" (empty string). When you read a page it will return "-" (dash). For now this will only affect content namespaces. [46]
  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 April. It will be on all wikis from 11 April (calendar).

Meetings

  •     You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 10 April at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

  • You will be able to preview references. This means that when you hover over the link you will get a popup that shows you a preview of the reference. It will work much like page previews. This is so you don't have to go to the bottom of the page to see a reference. This will now be available as a beta feature on German and Arabic Wikipedia. [47][48]
  •   The Wikidata JSON output will change. Empty containers will be serialised as empty objects. This is a breaking change that will affect tools that use JSON outputs and APIs. It will happen on 30 April. You can read more and see how to test your code.

Recent changes

  • The Wikipedia app for Android now invites users to add Wikidata descriptions to Wikidata objects that have Wikipedia articles but no Wikidata descriptions. It will only invite users who have added a number of Wikidata descriptions in the app without being reverted. This is to avoid spam and bad edits. [57][58]

Problems

  • Tech News was late last week because of a MassMessage bug. Other newsletters had the same problem. [59]

Changes later this week

  • You will see when you last refreshed the recent changes page. This is so you can see how recent the changes are. [60]
  • When you write a comment in Structured Discussions but have not posted it yet your web browser will save it in local storage instead of session storage. This means you do not lose them even if you close your web browser. Structured Discussions used to be called Flow. [61]
  • You will be able to turn off milestone notifications. Milestone notifications congratulate you when you have made certain numbers of edits. [62]
  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 30 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 1 May. It will be on all wikis from 2 May (calendar).

Meetings

  •     You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 1 May at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

  •   The Wikidata wb_terms table will be dropped. This will affect some Wikidata tools. They need to be updated. The table has become too big which is causing problems. This will happen on 29 May. You can read more. You can ask for help if you need it.
  •   Wikimedia wikis will soon use a token when you log out. This changes how the API works. Some tools might need to be updated. [63]

Multilingual Shared Templates and Modules

編輯
Hello yue-wiki community! (請幫手去譯做你嘅語言)

I recently organized a project to share templates and modules between wikis. It allows modules and templates to be “language-neutral”, and store all text translations on Commons. This means that it is enough to copy/paste a template without any changes, and update the translations separately. If someone fixes a bug or adds a new feature in the original module, you can copy/paste it again without any translation work. My bot DiBabelYurikBot can help with copying. This way users can spend more time on content, and less time on updating and copying templates. Please see project page for details and ask questions on talk page.

P.S. I am currently running for the Wikimedia board, focusing on content and support of multi-language communities. If you liked my projects like maps, graphs, or this one, I will be happy to receive your support. (any registered user group can vote). Thank you! --Yurik (🗨️) 2019年5月11號 (六) 07:49 (UTC)[回覆]

Problems

  • File descriptions for files from Commons were not shown properly on other Wikimedia wikis for a few days. For example the image descriptions and license information were missing. This has now been fixed. [65][66]
  • Some diffs show an error message when you try to see them. The developers are working on fixing it. It could be because of some edit comments. [67][68]

Changes later this week

  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 五月. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 五月. It will be on all wikis from 23 五月 (calendar).

Future changes

  • The content translation tool on Wikipedia can use machine translations. There is a system to stop translations where the editors do not fix machine translation mistakes. This warns or stops them if they seem to just copy what the machine translation gives them. If this system is too strict or not strict enough you can tell the language team. [69]
  •   The Wikidata wbeditentity API endpoint will remove all aliases if the request includes an empty alias. This is how it supposed to work. It has not been working this way because of a bug. This will start on 12 June. [70]

Mobile visual editor test

編輯

請幫手去譯做你嘅語言.

Hello all,

The mw:Editing team has been improving the mw:Mobile visual editor. They would like to test it here. The purpose of the test is to learn which editor is better for new contributors. This is a great opportunity for your wiki to learn the same. This is an easy test that requires no work from you. You can read more about it at mw:VisualEditor on mobile/VE mobile default.

What? The test compares the mobile visual editor and the mobile wikitext editor, for newer registered editors (<100 edits).

Who? Half the people who edit from the mobile site will start in the mobile visual editor. The other half will start in the mobile wikitext editor. Remember: Most editors are not using the mobile site and will not be affected by this test. Also, users can switch at any time, and their changes will be automatically remembered and respected. If you have already tried the mobile visual editor, your preference is already recorded and will be respected.

When? The test will start soon, during June. The test will take about six weeks. (Then it will take a few weeks to write the report.)

Why? This test will help the team recommend initial preference settings. It will help them learn whether different wikis should have different settings.

 
Switching editing tools is quick and easy on mobile.

How can I switch? It's easy to switch editing environments on the mobile site.

  1. Go to the mobile site, e.g., https://test.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random or https://zh-yue.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
  2. Open any page to edit (click the pencil icon).
  3. Click the new pencil icon to switch editing modes.
  4. Choose either "即見編輯" or "源碼編輯" from the menu.
  5. Done! You can do the same thing to switch back at any time.

If you have any questions, please leave a note at mw:Talk:VisualEditor on mobile/VE mobile default. Thank you! Whatamidoing (WMF) (傾偈) 2019年5月31號 (五) 22:19 (UTC)[回覆]

Recent changes

  • You can now write all special letters in all African Wikipedia languages. This works in the desktop version. [73]
  • There is now a field called depicts on Commons. This is a way to show what is in a picture with the help of Wikidata. It is still in development. [74]
  • Some tools on Toolforge may break on or after 3 June because of database changes. Maintainers should update their tools to use the new schema. [75][76]

Problems

  • You will be able to read but not to edit Wikimedia Commons for 30 minutes on 19 June at 05:00 (UTC). This is to fix a hardware problem. [77]

Changes later this week

  • Some wikis have one tab for the visual editor and one tab for a wikitext editor. Others wikis just have one tab. If your wiki has two tabs, clicking a link to create a new page has always opened a wikitext editor. It will now open the editor you used the last time you edited. [78]
  •   The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 4 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 5 May. It will be on all wikis from 6 May (calendar).

最近更新

  • When you create a PDF from a page on the wiki this is now done by Proton. Before this we used Electron. It should look the same but work better. Both use Chromium. This is a different system from when you collect several articles into a book and make a PDF from them. [79][80]
  • The Flagged Revisions extension now uses the standard OOUI icons. There will be additional minor fixes for positioning in the next deployment. [81]
  •   機械人同其他自動工具若果唔設定一個可以識別嘅User-Agent（用戶代理）嘅話，喺設定返啱之前可能會受嚴格嘅速率限制。 [82]

問題

  • Please check if the Flagged Revisions configuration on your wiki is as you expect (or as it was a few weeks ago). If not, please report it. [83]

今個禮拜遲啲嘅更新

  • 今個禮拜無新MediaWiki版本。

Wikidata Bridge: edit Wikidata’s data from Wikipedia infoboxes

編輯

Sorry for writing this message in English - feel free to help us translating it :)

Hello all,

Many language versions of Wikipedia use the content of Wikidata, the centralized knowledge base, to fill out the content of infoboxes. The data is stored in Wikidata and displayed, partially or completely, in the Wikipedia’s language, on the articles. This feature is used by many template editors, but brought several issues that were raised by communities in various places: not being able to edit the data directly from Wikipedia was one of them.

This is the reason why the Wikidata Bridge project started, with the goal of offering a way to Wikipedia editors to edit Wikidata’s data more easily. This will be achieved by an interface, connected to the infobox, that users can access directly from their local wiki.

The project is now at an early stage of development. A lot of user research has been done, and will continue to be done through the different phases of the project. The next steps of development will be achieved by the development team working at Wikimedia Deutschland, starting now until the end of 2019.

In order to make sure that we’re building a tool that is answering editors’ needs, we’re using agile methods in our development process. We don’t start with a fixed idea of the tool we want to deliver: we will build it together with the editors, based on feedback loops that we will regularly organize. The first version will not necessarily have all of the features you want, but it will keep evolving.

Here’s the planned timeline:

  • From June to August, we will build the setup and technical groundwork.
  • From September to November 2019, we will develop the first version of the feature and publish a test system so you can try it and give feedback.
  • Later on, we will test the feature on a few projects, in collaboration with the communities.
    • We will first focus on early adopters communities who already implemented a shortcut from their infoboxes to edit Wikidata (for example Russian, Catalan, Basque Wikipedias)
    • but we also welcome also communities who volunteer to be part of the first test round.
    • Then we will reach some of the big Wikipedias (French, German, English) in order to see if the project scales and to address their potentially different needs.
    • Even later, we can consider enabling the feature on all the other projects.

In any case, no deployment or big change will be enforced on the projects without talking to the communities first, and helping the template builders to prepare for the changes they will have to do on the infoboxes’ code.

If you want to get involved, there are several ways to help:

More ideas will be added on this page along the way

If you have any questions for the development team, feel free to ask them on the main talk page. You can also ask under this message, but if you expect an answer from me, please make sure to ping me.

Thanks for your attention, Lea Lacroix (WMDE) 2019年6月24號 (一) 13:03 (UTC)[回覆]
