Tech News: 2024-21[edit]
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
- The Nuke feature, which enables administrators to mass delete pages, will now correctly delete pages which were moved to another title. [1]
- New changes have been made to the UploadWizard in Wikimedia Commons: the overall layout has been improved, by following new styling and spacing for the form and its fields; the headers and helper text for each of the fields was changed; the Caption field is now a required field, and there is an option for users to copy their caption into the media description. [2][3]
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 May. It will be on all wikis from 23 May (calendar). [4][5]
The HTML used to render all headings is being changed to improve accessibility. It will change on 22 May in some skins (Timeless, Modern, CologneBlue, Nostalgia, and Monobook). Please test gadgets on your wiki on these skins and report any related problems so that they can be resolved before this change is made in all other skins. The developers are also considering the introduction of a Gadget API for adding buttons to section titles if that would be helpful to tool creators, and would appreciate any input you have on that.

Edit at Smriti Mandhana[edit]
You reverted my edit on Smriti Mandhana by stating it was non-constructive. I want to clarify that I only removed one of the two citations used in the lead for the pronunciation of her name, as both citations serve the same purpose and are redundant. I used the same video as the previous citation but from the original upload on the channel of Asian Paints. Therefore, I don't understand why you consider my edit unconstructive. Please clarify. I am writing this to avoid edit war on the Smriti Mandhana page. Thanks. VK wiki100 06:34, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- The citation given is supposed to state how to pronounce the name like this previous one. But, the one you added is "Asian Paints Presents Where The Heart Is Season 4 Episode 02 featuring Smriti Mandhana". How is that relevant? Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 07:20, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- I didn't add it; it was already there. I just pointed it to the original upload. It is the same as the previous second citation, and Smriti herself pronounces her name in it. That's the reason why it is cited. I've removed the previous first citation because it had only 930 views, and the channel was not trustworthy. It still showed the same pronunciation as Smriti in the second citation, so it was redundant to include both. That's why I've removed the less trustworthy one. VK wiki100 08:01, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- When it comes to pronunciation, simple videos like these: [6][7][8] which only contains the pronunciation are better. Unlike the above 7 minute video which includes many other unrelated contents; these only have what's needed. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 13:39, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- I understand, but the issue lies in the uncertainty of the reliability of these videos. All three videos you provided have different pronunciations of her name. In this situation, it's best to use a primary source. If you could find a shorter and more to-the-point video of Smriti herself pronouncing her name, that would be very helpful.

Wikiproject Medicine May 2024 Newsletter[edit]
- Issue 22—May 2024
- WikiProject Medicine Newsletter
Hello all. Another irregular edition of the newsletter. I was inspired to collect this after seeing several medicine-interested editors nominate their first good article. Please review a GA nomination if you have time, and help support our colleagues' efforts:

WP:MED News
- Wikipedia:Good article reassessment is back in business, with a new process and new coordinators. If you see medicine-related GAs that may no longer meet the GA criteria, feel free to nominate them for attention/reassessment (please, not too many at once, lest we get overwhelmed). I'll incorporate them into the listings above.
- Maintenance category of the month: Articles with topics of unclear notability (I've listed just the 36 that start with "A"; there are 398 total).
- Note for the curious: 24,211 of the 57,554 articles (42%) tagged as part of WP:MED have some maintenance tag.
Newsletter ideas, comments, and criticisms welcome here.
You are receiving this because you added your name to the WikiProject Medicine mailing list. If you no longer wish to receive the newsletter, please remove your name.

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
- Several bugs related to the latest updates to the UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons have been fixed. For more information, see T365107 and T365119.
- In March 2024 a new addPortlet API was added to allow gadgets to create new portlets (menus) in the skin. In certain skins this can be used to create dropdowns. Gadget developers are invited to try it and give feedback.
- Some CSS in the Minerva skin has been removed to enable easier community configuration. Interface editors should check the rendering on mobile devices for aspects related to the classes:
.collapsible,.multicol,.reflist,.coordinates,.topicon. Further details are available on replacement CSS if it is needed.
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 May. It will be on all wikis from 30 May (calendar). [9][10]
- When you visit a wiki where you don't yet have a local account, local rules such as edit filters can sometimes prevent your account from being created. Starting this week, MediaWiki takes your global rights into account when evaluating whether you can override such local rules. [11]
