Problems
- The abuse filters had a problem and caught too many edits. This has now been fixed. [7]
Changes this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from October 25. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from October 26. It will be on all wikis from October 27 (calendar).
- The "Search" text in the search box will show the name of the project. For example, on Wikipedia it will say "Search Wikipedia". [8]
- About a dozen wikis now have numerical sorting in categories. If your wiki wants numerical sorting in categories you can ask for it. [9]
- Some wikis that want numerical sorting in categories can also ask to use UCA to sort categories. The biggest difference is that characters with diacritics will be sorted together. For example, for most languages Ä will be sorted with A instead of at the end of the alphabet. This is not true for languages that have Ä as a character in their alphabet. Wikis that already use UCA are listed on Meta. Languages that can use UCA are listed on MediaWiki.org. You can test it.

- Jcc Let's do it! A task force for bus routes is very much needed. Me and you could be the task force leaders or whatever it's called ;). There was one created by Jeni, but that seems to be dead to be honest. Class455 (talk) 19:39, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

New deal for page patrollers
Hi Class455,
In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.
Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.
Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello. Sorry to pre-empt your warning to this user. The user has been warned many times (including by myself) in the past about his or her behaviour on this article, and I think the time for decisive action to stop it is now here. I've blocked him or her for one week. Let's see if that changes his or her behaviour. Sorry to "take over" from you in this way. I hope you don't mind. DDStretch (talk) 20:41, 20 November 2016 (UTC)
- @Ddstretch:Don't worry about it mate. What I was going to do was see if he edit warred any further than I would have reported to AN3. But it's good that you blocked him to prevent further disruption. If he continues when his block expires, don't feel afraid to block indefinitely! Class455 (talk) 22:48, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

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
- Administrators, bureaucrats, oversighters and checkusers can now use two-factor authentication. This makes their Wikimedia accounts more secure. This can be turned on in Special:Preferences. There are discussions on how to best turn it on for everyone. [27]
- You can now search for file properties. For example you can search for media type, how big a file is or what resolution it has. [28]
- The latest Collaboration team products newsletter has been published. It has more details about their work than Tech News has.
Problems
- A hacker group is hacking Wikimedia accounts. They can probably do this because users have the same passwords on Wikimedia wikis as on other sites. Please have a password you use only on the Wikimedia wikis and nowhere else. This is especially important for administrators, bureaucrats, oversighters and checkusers. These users can also turn on two-factor authentication. [29]
Changes this week
- There is no new MediaWiki version this week.
- RevisionSlider will be a default feature on German, Arabic and Hebrew Wikipedia. This will happen on 22 November. It will come to other wikis later. [30][31][32]
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 22 November at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.
Future changes
- It will be possible to do cross-wiki search. The developers who work on this are looking for communities that want to test this. [33]
- Hovercards will leave the beta stage. The Wikimedia Foundation Reading Web team wants communities to set Hovercards as a default option for readers who are not logged in. Communities that are interested can say so on the Hovercards talk page. [34]

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Changes this week
- When someone tries to log in to a blocked account they will be blocked by a cookie. This means their browser will be blocked even if they change their IP address. This makes it more difficult for returning vandals. [35]
- When you use Content Translation to adapt a template to a new translation it will work differently. You can adapt big templates such as infoboxes. Translators will have control over the template parameters. A first version of this is released this week. It is possible it will not work correctly with all templates. There will be more updates for this soon. [36]
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 29 November. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 30 November. It will be on all wikis from 1 December (calendar).
Gadgets will have a new option called "hidden". This means you can register gadgets that can't be turned on or off from the preferences page. Hiding gadgets was already possible by using
[rights=hidden]
. You should now use[hidden]
instead.[rights=hidden]
in old gadgets should be changed to[hidden]
. [37][38]
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 29 November at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.
Future changes
Tool Labs could get two new policies. One would be to be able to adopt tools without an active developer. The other would be a right to fork. There is a request for comment on Meta.

Userpage
@Class455 and Patient Zero: Can you correct the sentence with a period on that section I edited then he reverted it? KGirlTrucker81 huh? what I've been doing 23:02, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
- @KGirlTrucker81 and Patient Zero: This edit war is getting a bit petty now guys, especially over a full stop, so please stop! Anyway, KGirlTrucker81, it does say on the edit notice of my user page that you may edit my user page only if you are editing constructively, which you did, but you should let me know on my talk page that you've performed the edit (I should have put that on my edit notice, but I really did not see this whole thing coming!), which is why Patient Zero reverted you. But anyway, I will change it, and I'll alter my edit notice to make sure this thing does not happen again. But KGirlTrucker81, I do appreciate others correcting my userpage (and some typos in any comments I make), but please take note that most other users do not like others editing their userpage, even if it is minor (I honestly have no clue why). I fell into this trap once and now I know. Thank you both. Class455 (talk) 23:17, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
- I only explained them in the edit summary. KGirlTrucker81 huh? what I've been doing 23:36, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
- KGirlTrucker81 I understand, and I did see this, but only after spotting it on my watchlist. Leaving a message here is a lot better, because I get the "orange bar of death" (as Mjroots calls it) as soon as I log on notifying me that there is a new message on my talk page, and therefore I can see and respond to the change. Class455 (talk) 23:48, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
- KGirl has hit 3 reverts now. I will not be reverting further following your acceptance of the edit. One more thing though, KGirlTrucker81: getting funny about templates really doesn't look good. But yes, I acknowledge the whole thing was rather ridiculous, and I shouldn't have reverted in all fairness. I was simply doing what I thought was right. Patient Zerotalk 10:13, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
