Recent changes
- The ORES service has now moved to [https://ores.wikimedia.org a new location]. This should make it easier to use ORES. The ORES review service is now available as a beta feature on Wikidata and Persian Wikipedia. ORES is an artificial intelligence system for Wikimedia wikis to help editors. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wiki-research-l/2016-June/005220.html]
- The order of wikis in collapsed cross-wiki notifications was different than when the list was expanded. This is now fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138115]
- A new category for tracking pages with math errors was added: :{{ns:category}}:{{MediaWiki:math-tracking-category-error}}. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T49037]
Problems
- The Wikimedia Etherpad crashed on June 23. Some edits done that day have been lost. They can be found at [https://etherpad-restore.wikimedia.org etherpad-restore.wikimedia.org] for another few days. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138516][https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Incident_documentation/20160623-etherpad]
Changes this week
- File:Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 June. It will be on all wikis from 30 June (calendar).
- The way to mark notifications as read or unread will be changed to be more clear. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T126214]
Meetings
- File:Octicons-sync.svg 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.

Future changes
- The Collaboration team at the Wikimedia Foundation will look at developing better tools for edit review. This is because research suggests we scare away newcomers who want to help. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Edit_Review_Improvements]
- An e-mail from the Editing Department explains the technical work that is planned and being researched for the future. Items include better wikitext and visual editing, prompts for edits, language improvements, annotations, and meta-data separation. [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Roadmap/Update_2016-06-23]
- The sorting of Notifications into the two fly-out menus is going to change on July 5 to 7. Bundled notifications should be easier to explore and mark as read individually. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T123018][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T114356][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T120153]
- File:Octicons-tools.svg From 29 June git.wikimedia.org (running Gitblit) will redirect all requests to Phabricator. The vast majority of requests should be correctly redirected. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/engineering/2016-June/000215.html]
- Catalan and Polish Wikipedias will have Wikidata descriptions added to articles in the mobile view by default. This is currently a beta option for the mobile versions. This might come to other wikis later. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T135429]

Thanks for keeping on top of this article. I've revdel'd a number of the revisions due to the content and if the vandalism continues I'll consider protection. Nthep (talk) 14:58, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
:No problem. Looks like it's been going on a while. I'll keep an eye out as well. clpo13(talk) 17:22, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
Minor Edits
Clpo13,
I appreciate you informing me on this matter. Will keep in mind for future references. Look forward to contributing additional material and maintaining Wikipedia's positive reputation on providing high quality and non-biased accurate information.

| Guild of Copy Editors July 2016 News Hello everyone, and welcome to the July 2016 GOCE newsletter. June Blitz: this one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 12 through 18 June; the themes were video games and Asian geography. Of the 18 editors who signed up, 11 removed 47 articles from the backlog. Barnstars and rollover totals are located here. Thanks to all editors who took part. The second tranche of Guild coordinators for 2016, who will serve a six-month term until 23:59 UTC on 31 December, have been elected. {{noping|Jonesey95}} remains as your drama-free Lead Coordinator, and {{noping|Corinne}} and {{noping|Tdslk}} are your new assistant coordinators. For her long service to the Guild, {{noping|Miniapolis}} has been enrolled in the GOCE Hall of Fame. Thanks to everyone who voted in the election; our next scheduled one occurs in December 2016. All Wikipedia editors in good standing are eligible; self-nominations are welcome and encouraged. Our month-long July Copy Editing Backlog Elimination Drive is now underway. Our aim is to remove articles tagged for copy-edit in April, May and June 2015, and to complete all requests on the GOCE Requests page from June 2016. The drive ends at 23:59 on 31 July 2016 (UTC). Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators: {{noping|Jonesey95}}, {{noping|Corinne}} and {{noping|Tdlsk}}. {{center|>>> Sign up for the July Drive! <<< | To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list. }} |

Recent changes
- A new image scaler fixed a number of bugs for showing SVG files. Some new problems turned up. [https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2016-July/085984.html][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T112421][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T139543]
- Notifications are grouped by types. They are now counted by number of notifications and not by unread groups. That change may increase the number of notifications displayed. The earlier way of counting was often incorrect. Unread notifications will also be displayed first. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T114356][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T139323][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T139521]
- Special:Notifications now has a maximum width for the notifications list on desktop computers. This allows long titles and descriptions to be cut properly. Notifications are now also better parsed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T137425][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138433][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T139602]
Problems
- On 5 July Wikimedia Commons had problems and could not be edited for 20 minutes. For a short while after that the recent changes log and some gadgets were not working properly. It affected administrative actions on other projects too. [https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Incident_documentation/20160705-commons-replication]
- Users who have multiple unread notifications can mark them as read by visiting Special:Notifications page on their wiki.

Great
so what's your response? 174.19.218.191 (talk) 19:15, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
:Commented on Talk:Jill Stein. clpo13(talk) 19:20, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
::Thank you. It is frustrating when one has to wait for two fricking weeks without even a courtesy reply, and the only way to get attention for a reasonable concern is resorting to vandalism. 174.19.218.191 (talk) 19:24, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
Correction of comments
Hi Mr.Clpo13, I am Arman ad60. I made the comments in the Persian talk pages. I had removed them because my English is not very good. I had requested Mr. Jimbo Wales and he accepted it. But I don't like it as they still remain there as tags. People may still search them and see the messages. I don't understand where is the problem in removing them. They have already been deleted. What is the problem if I remove them altogether.
But yes, if you don't think I should be allowed to change the messages then you can show the messages up. I think it is better than remaining there as tags. I am giving you the permission to do that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.58.205.145 (talk) 22:35, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
Archiving of comments
Mr. Clpo thank you very much for archiving the talk page. Can you please achive the talk pages of the Parthian and Sasanian empire. I had made some comments there as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.58.205.145 (talk) 23:10, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
Disruptive?
How is removing one link being disruptive? Also who the hell am I supposed to ask to get content removed? 2600:8800:5100:38E:9D4E:1776:E4CB:1285 (talk) 00:04, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
:There's a long-term pattern of disruptive editing regarding that link. As I said on Talk:White savior narrative in film, the best thing to do is to start an WP:RFC regarding the appropriateness of the link. clpo13(talk) 15:56, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

Please comment on [[Talk:Assault rifle#rfc_1FC40F9|Talk:Assault rifle]]
The feedback request service is asking for participation in this request for comment on Talk:Assault rifle. Legobot (talk) 04:24, 26 July 2016 (UTC)
Thank you...
Thanks for your concern earlier about my IP exemption application, even if it was a false alarm; I definitely understand if it looked like our Dakotan friend got to me and I didn't mean to scare you (I didn't know exactly how the IPX process looked until then). Nate • (chatter) 02:21, 23 July 2016 (UTC)
Thank you for editing the format and deleting the list in the Emily Bear aricle.I did not create this but I did not want to because I did not feel entitled to do this.
All the informations I posted are really central. As I wrote on the Cullum talk page I could post informations, facts, photos , spam topping the size of Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Jackie Evancho combined ;) but that was not my goal.
We should have all the same standards ;)

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
- In notifications, the icon for {{int:echo-notification-notice-text-only}} has been changed from a speech-bubble icon (File:Echo chat icon.svg) to a tray icon (File:OOjs UI icon tray.svg) for consistency. The {{int:echo-notification-alert-text-only}} icon has been redesigned too. The colors have been changed for accessibility. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T140900]
Problems
- If you use the wikEd gadget, changes you made were not kept when you switched from the wikitext editor to the visual editor while you were editing. This has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T135747]
Changes this week
- Wikimedia search will now ignore question marks at the end of the sentences or words you use when you search. Until now the question mark was just a wildcard. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T133711]
- On Commons, UploadWizard will now be available on mobile, rather than just the old upload form. This should reduce the workload for the community in reviewing images. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T97169]

Thank you
... for the quote of the day: "I don't see any logical reason to make information harder to access." - I was trained - the hard way - to stick to two comments per discussion ;) - I had learned before that some people need to have the last word, which unfortunately includes myself. - Problem in the quote is the word "logical". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:54, 4 August 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.
Problems
- Last week Tech News announced you will get a notification when you mention yourself the same way as if someone else had mentioned you. This caused some problems and will happen later instead. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T138080]
- Creating and editing links to sections on other pages on the wiki now works again in the visual editor. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T112898]
- 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. This will be fixed soon. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T140836][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T140327]
Changes this week
- The login session when you choose "Keep me logged in" will now last a year. Previously it was 30 days. This will happen on August 16. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T68699]
- Some abuse filters will have to be updated during the week. This is because a bug will be fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T29987]
- In compact language links, two new kinds of languages will be shown in the shorter language list: Languages that are used in the article's text, and languages where the article has a badge like "featured article" or "good article". [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T70071][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T70077]
- The visual editor will be available by default for logged-out editors on Wikipedias that use the Arabic script. It is already default for logged-in editors. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T142587]
- File:Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from August 16. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from August 17. It will be on all wikis from August 18 (calendar).
Meetings
- File:Octicons-sync.svg 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 [http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?hour=19&min=00&sec=0&day=16&month=08&year=2016 August 16 at 19:00 (UTC)]. See how to join.
Future changes
- Starting the week of August 22 there will be three software deployment windows. They will be at 13:00, 18:00, and 23:00 UTC. This is to have more times when software of the wikis can be updated and make it easier for developers in different parts of the world.
