تێبینیی ئەوەم کرد کە لە داڕێژەی زمانەکاندا (بە زمان) نایەکگرتووییەک هەیە لە شێوازەکانیاندا. بۆ نموونە:
پارامیتەرە دراوەکە بە
بە ئینگلیزی
یان
بە عەرەبی
لار نابن و ئاسایین، بەڵام
پارامیتەرە دراوەکە بە
بە ئیسپانی
لار دەبێت.
دڵنیا نیم ئەگەر کێشەکە فراوان بێت و لە داڕێژەی زۆرتردا هەبێت، تکایە لەسەری بکۆڵکنەوە و ئەگەر کرا، چارەسەریان بکەن. زۆربەی داڕێژە هاوشێوەکانیان پارێزراون و بەکارهێنەری ئاسایی مافی دەستکاریکردنی نییە. —

Weekly highlight
The Wikimedia Foundation has shared the latest draft update to their
annual plan
for next year (July 2025–June 2026). This includes an
executive summary
(also on
Diff
), details about the three main
goals
Infrastructure
Volunteer Support
, and
Effectiveness
),
global trends
, and the
budget
and
financial model
. Feedback and questions are welcome on the
talk page
until the end of May.
Updates for editors
For wikis that have the
CampaignEvents extension enabled
, two new feature improvements have been released:
Admins can now choose which namespaces are permitted for
Event Registration
via
Community Configuration
documentation
). The default setup is for event registration to be permitted in the Event namespace, but other namespaces (such as the project namespace or WikiProject namespace) can now be added. With this change, communities like WikiProjects can now more easily use Event Registration for their collaborative activities.
Editors can now
transclude
the Collaboration List on a wiki page (
documentation
). The Collaboration List is an automated list of events and WikiProjects on the wikis, accessed via
تایبەت:AllEvents
example
). Now, the Collaboration List can be added to all sorts of wiki pages, such as: a wiki mainpage, a WikiProject page, an affiliate page, an event page, or even a user page.

Developers who use the
moment
library in gadgets and user scripts should revise their code to use alternatives like the
Intl
library or the new
mediawiki.DateFormatter
library. The
moment
library has been deprecated and will begin to log messages in the developer console. You can see a global search for current uses, and
ask related questions in this Phabricator task
Developers who maintain a tool that queries the Wikidata term store tables (
wbt_*
) need to update their code to connect to a separate database cluster. These tables are being split into a separate database cluster. Tools that query those tables via the wiki replicas must be adapted to connect to the new cluster instead.

(Apologies for posting in English)
Hi all! We have good news to share regarding the ongoing problem with graphs and charts affecting all wikis that use them.
As you probably know, the
old Graph extension
was disabled in 2023
due to security reasons
. We’ve worked in these two years to find a solution that could replace the old extension, and provide a safer and better solution to users who wanted to showcase graphs and charts in their articles. We therefore developed the
Charts extension
, which will be replacing the old Graph extension and potentially also the
EasyTimeline extension
After successfully deploying the extension on Italian, Swedish, and Hebrew Wikipedia, as well as on MediaWiki.org, as part of a pilot phase, we are now happy to announce that we are moving forward with the next phase of deployment, which will also include your wiki.
The deployment will happen in batches, and will start from
May 6
. Please, consult
our page on MediaWiki.org
to discover when the new Charts extension will be deployed on your wiki. You can also
consult the documentation
about the extension on MediaWiki.org.
If you have questions, need clarifications, or just want to express your opinion about it, please refer to the
project’s talk page on Mediawiki.org
, or ping me directly under this thread. If you encounter issues using Charts once it gets enabled on your wiki, please report it on the
talk page
or at
Phabricator
Thank you in advance! --

Updates for editors
The Wikimedia Foundation is working on a system called
Edge Uniques
, which will enable
A/B testing
, help protect against
distributed denial-of-service attacks
(DDoS attacks), and make it easier to understand how many visitors the Wikimedia sites have. This is to help more efficiently build tools which help readers, and make it easier for readers to find what they are looking for. Tech News has
previously written about this
. The deployment will be gradual. Some might see the Edge Uniques cookie the week of 19 May. You can discuss this on the
talk page
Starting May 19, 2025, Event organisers in wikis with the
CampaignEvents extension
enabled can use
Event Registration
in the project namespace (e.g., Wikipedia namespace, Wikidata namespace). With this change, communities don't need admins to use the feature. However, wikis that don't want this change can remove and add the permitted namespaces at
Special:CommunityConfiguration/CampaignEvents

Dear Wikipedia community,
Please help translate to your language
We invite your community to participate in the 6th edition of the
Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos Campaign
, a global campaign taking place from July 1 to August 31, 2025.
Participants will choose among Wikipedia pages without photos, then add a suitable photo from among the many thousands of photos in the Wikimedia Commons, especially those uploaded from thematic contests (
Wiki Loves Africa
Wiki Loves Earth
Wiki Loves Folklore
Wiki Loves Monuments
, etc.) over the years.
More than 80 Wikimedia affiliates have participated since the campaign was launched in 2020 and have added images to more than 400,000 Wikipedia articles in over 245 Wikipedia languages. Thanks to the volunteer contributors!
We now invite your community to organize and lead the campaign within your community. As a local organizer, you may:
Encourage individual members to take part by adding images to Wikipedia articles.
Host edit-a-thons focused on improving visual content.
Organize training workshops to teach contributors how to correctly integrate images into Wikipedia.
These activities will help build local capacity and increase visual content across Wikipedia.
Please note that for participants to be eligible to participate in the campaign, they need to have registered an account for at least a year before the official start date of the contest. That is, for the 2025 edition, they must have registered an account on or before July 1, 2025. The account can be from any Wikimedia project wikis.
The organizing team is looking for a contact person to coordinate WPWP participation at the Wikimedia user group or chapter level (geographically or thematically) or for a language Wikipedia.
We would be glad for you to
sign up directly
at
WPWP Participating Communities
With kind regards,
User:Reading Beans
On behalf of the Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos campaign 2025.

Weekly highlight
The Editing Team and the Machine Learning Team are working on a new check for newcomers:
Peacock check
. Using a prediction model, this check will encourage editors to improve the tone of their edits, using artificial intelligence. We invite volunteers to review the first version of the Peacock language model for the following languages: Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese, English, and Japanese. Users from these wikis interested in reviewing this model are
invited to sign up at MediaWiki.org
. The deadline to sign up is on May 23, which will be the start date of the test.
Updates for editors
From May 20, 2025,
oversighters
and
checkusers
will need to have their accounts secured with two-factor authentication (2FA) to be able to use their advanced rights. All users who belong to these two groups and do not have 2FA enabled have been informed. In the future, this requirement may be extended to other users with advanced rights.
Multiblocks
will begin mass deployment by the end of the month: all non-Wikipedia projects plus Catalan Wikipedia will adopt Multiblocks in the week of May 26, while all other Wikipedias will adopt it in the week of June 2. Please
contact the team
if you have concerns. Administrators can test the new user interface now on your own wiki by browsing to
تایبەت:Block
?usecodex=1
, and can test the full multiblocks functionality
on testwiki
. Multiblocks is the feature that makes it possible for administrators to impose different types of blocks on the same user at the same time. See the
help page
for more information.
Later this week, the
تایبەت:پەڕە تایبەتەکان
listing of almost all special pages will be updated with a new design. This page has been
redesigned
to improve the user experience in a few ways, including: The ability to search for names and aliases of the special pages, sorting, more visible marking of restricted special pages, and a more mobile-friendly look. The new version can be
previewed
at Beta Cluster now, and feedback shared in the task.
The
Chart extension
is being enabled on more wikis. For a detailed list of when the extension will be enabled on your wiki, please read the
deployment timeline
Wikifunctions
will be deployed on May 27 on five Wiktionaries:
Hausa
Igbo
Bengali
Malayalam
, and
Dhivehi/Maldivian
. This is the second batch of deployment planned for the project. After deployment, the projects will be able to call
functions from Wikifunctions
and integrate them in their pages. A function is something that takes one or more inputs and transforms them into a desired output, such as adding up two numbers, converting miles into metres, calculating how much time has passed since an event, or declining a word into a case. Wikifunctions will allow users to do that through a simple call of
a stable and global function
, rather than via a local template.
Later this week, the Wikimedia Foundation will publish a hub for
experiments
. This is to showcase and get user feedback on product experiments. The experiments help the Wikimedia movement
understand new users
, how they interact with the internet and how it could affect the Wikimedia movement. Some examples are
generated video
, the
Wikipedia Roblox speedrun game
and
the Discord bot

that were

. For example, there was a bug with creating an account using the API, which has now been fixed.
Updates for technical contributors
Gadgets and user scripts that interact with
تایبەت:Block
may need to be updated to work with the new
manage blocks interface
. Please review the
developer guide
for more information. If you need help or are unable to adapt your script to the new interface, please let the team know on the
talk page
The
mw.title
object allows you to get information about a specific wiki page in the
Lua
programming language. Starting this week, a new property will be added to the object, named
isDisambiguationPage
. This property allows you to check if a page is a disambiguation page, without the need to write a custom function.
User script developers can use a
new reverse proxy tool
to load javascript and css from
gitlab.wikimedia.org
with
mw.loader.load
. The tool's author hopes this will enable collaborative development workflows for user scripts including linting, unit tests, code generation, and code review on
gitlab.wikimedia.org
without a separate copy-and-paste step to publish scripts to a Wikimedia wiki for integration and acceptance testing. See
Tool:Gitlab-content on Wikitech
for more information.

Weekly highlight
A community-wide discussion about a very delicate issue for the development of
Abstract Wikipedia
is now open on Meta: where to store the abstract content that will be developed through functions from Wikifunctions and data from Wikidata. The discussion is open until June 12 at
Abstract Wikipedia/Location of Abstract Content
, and every opinion is welcomed. The decision will be made and communicated after the consultation period by the Foundation.
Updates for editors
Since last week, on all wikis except
the largest 20
, people using the mobile visual editor will have
additional tools in the menu bar
, accessed using the new
toolbar button. To start, the new menu will include options to add: citations, hieroglyphs, and code blocks. Deployment to the remaining wikis is
scheduled
to happen in June.
The
#ifexist
parser function will no longer register a link to its target page. This will improve the usefulness of
تایبەت:پەڕە پێویستەکان، بەستەرە شکاوەکان
, which will eventually only list pages that are the target of an actual red link. This change will happen gradually as the source pages are updated.
This week, the Moderator Tools team will launch
a new filter to Recent Changes
, starting at Indonesian Wikipedia. This new filter highlights edits that are likely to be reverted. The goal is to help Recent Changes patrollers identify potentially problematic edits. Other wikis will benefit from this filter in the future.
Upon clicking an empty search bar, logged-out users will see suggestions of articles for further reading. The feature will be available on both desktop and mobile. Readers of Catalan, Hebrew, and Italian Wikipedias and some sister projects will receive the change between May 21 and mid-June. Readers of other wikis will receive the change later. The goal is to encourage users to read the wikis more.
Some users of the Wikipedia Android app can use a new feature for readers,
WikiGames
, a daily trivia game based on real historical events. The release has started as an A/B test, available to 50% of users in the following languages: English, French, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, and Turkish.
The
Newsletter extension
that is available on MediaWiki.org allows the creation of
various newsletters
for global users. The extension can now publish new issues as section links on an existing page, instead of requiring a new page for each issue.

Updates for editors
It is now easier to configure automatic citations for your wiki within the visual editor's
citation generator
. Administrators can now set a default template by using the
_default
key in the local
MediaWiki:Citoid-template-type-map.json

new item types
are added in the future. You can still set templates for individual item types as they will be preferred to the default template.

Updates for technical contributors
Starting the week of June 2, bots logging in using
action=login
or
action=clientlogin
will fail more often. This is because of stronger protections against suspicious logins. Bots using
bot passwords
or using a loginless authentication method such as
OAuth
are not affected. If your bot is not using one of those, you should update it; using
action=login
without a bot password was deprecated
in 2016
. For most bots, this only requires changing what password the bot uses.
From this week, Wikimedia wikis will allow ES2017 features in JavaScript code for official code, gadgets, and user scripts. The most visible feature of ES2017 is
async
await
syntax, allowing for easier-to-read code. Until this week, the platform only allowed up to ES2016, and a few months before that, up to ES2015.

The
Trust and Safety Product team
is finalizing work needed to roll out
temporary accounts
on large Wikipedias later this month. The team has worked with stewards and other users with extended rights to predict and address many use cases that may arise on larger wikis, so that community members can continue to effectively moderate and patrol temporary accounts. This will be the second of three phases of deployment – the last one will take place in September at the earliest. For more information about the recent developments on the project,
see this update
. If you have any comments or questions, write on the
talk page
, and
join a CEE Catch Up
this Tuesday.
Updates for editors
The
watchlist expiry
feature allows editors to watch pages for a limited period of time. After that period, the page is automatically removed from your watchlist. Starting this week, you can set a preference for the default period of time to watch pages. The
preferences
also allow you to set different default watch periods for editing existing pages, pages you create, and when using rollback.
Example of a talk page with the new design, in French.
The appearance of talk pages will change at almost all Wikipedias (
some
have already received this design change,
a few
will get these changes later). You can read details about the changes
on
Diff
. It is possible to opt out of these changes
in user preferences
("
چالاکیی وتووێژ پیشان بدە
").
Users with specific extended rights (including administrators, bureaucrats, checkusers, oversighters, and stewards) can now have IP addresses of all temporary accounts
revealed automatically
during time-limited periods where they need to combat high-speed account-hopping vandalism. This feature was requested by stewards.
This week, the Moderator Tools and Machine Learning teams will continue the rollout of
a new filter to Recent Changes
, releasing it to several more Wikipedias. This filter utilizes the Revert Risk model, which was created by the Research team, to highlight edits that are likely to be reverted and help Recent Changes patrollers identify potentially problematic contributions. The feature will be rolled out to the following Wikipedias:
Afrikaans Wikipedia
Belarusian Wikipedia
Bengali Wikipedia
Welsh Wikipedia
Hawaiian Wikipedia
Icelandic Wikipedia
Kazakh Wikipedia

Weekly highlight
This week, the Moderator Tools and Machine Learning teams will continue the rollout of
a new filter to Recent Changes
, releasing it to the third and last batch of Wikipedias. This filter utilizes the Revert Risk model, which was created by the Research team, to highlight edits that are likely to be reverted and help Recent Changes patrollers identify potentially problematic contributions. The feature will be rolled out to the following Wikipedias:
Azerbaijani Wikipedia
Latin Wikipedia
Macedonian Wikipedia
Malayalam Wikipedia
Marathi Wikipedia
Norwegian Nynorsk Wikipedia
Punjabi Wikipedia
Swahili Wikipedia
Telugu Wikipedia
Tagalog Wikipedia
. The rollout will continue in the coming weeks to include
the rest of the Wikipedias in this project
Updates for editors
Last week,
temporary accounts
were rolled out on Czech, Korean, and Turkish Wikipedias. This and next week, deployments on larger Wikipedias will follow.
Share your thoughts
about the project.
Later this week, the Editing team will release
Multi Check
to all Wikipedias (except English Wikipedia). This feature shows multiple
Reference checks
within the editing experience. This encourages users to add citations when they add multiple new paragraphs to a Wikipedia article. This feature was previously available as an A/B test.
The test shows
that users who are shown multiple checks are 1.3 times more likely to add a reference to their edit, and their edit is less likely to be reverted (-34.7%).
A few pages need to be renamed due to software updates and to match more recent Unicode standards. All of these changes are related to title-casing changes. Approximately 71 pages and 3 files will be renamed, across 15 wikis; the complete list is in
the task
. The developers will rename these pages next week, and they will fix redirects and embedded file links a few minutes later via a system settings update.

Editors can now use Lua modules to filter and transform tabular data for use with
Extension:Chart
. This can be used for things like selecting a subset of rows or columns from the source data, converting between units, statistical processing, and many other useful transformations.
Information on how to use transforms is available
The
all_links
variable in
AbuseFilter
is now renamed to
new_links
for consistency with other variables. Old usages will still continue to work.

will now be revealed when someone searches the page using the web browser's "Find in page" function (Ctrl+F or ⌘F) in supporting browsers.
A new feature, called
Favourite Templates
, will be deployed later this week on all projects (except English Wikipedia, which will receive the feature next week), following a piloting phase on Polish and Arabic Wikipedia, and Italian and English Wikisource. The feature will provide a better way for new and experienced contributors to recall and discover templates via the template dialog, by allowing users to put templates on a special "favourite list". The feature works with both the visual editor and the wikitext editor. The feature is a

Hello everyone, the
Wikidata For Wikimedia Projects
team is excited to announce an upcoming change in how Wikidata edit changelogs are displayed in your
Watchlists
and
Recent Changes
lists. If an edit is made on Wikidata that affects a page in another Wikimedia Project, the changelog will contain some information about the nature of the edit. This can include a QID (or Q-number), a PID (or P-number) and a value (which can be text, numbers, dates, or also QID or PID’s). Confused by these terms? See the
Wikidata:Glossary
for further explanations.
The upcoming change is scheduled for
17.07.2025
, between
1300 - 1500 UTC
The change will display the label (item name) alongside any QID or PIDs, as seen in the image below:
These changes will only be visible if you have Wikidata edits enabled in your User Preferences for Watchlists and Recent Changes, or have the active filter ‘Wikidata edits’ checkbox toggled on, directly on the Watchlist and Recent Changes pages.
Your bot and gadget may be affected! There are thousands of bots, gadgets and user-scripts and whilst we have researched potential effects to many of them, we cannot guarantee there won’t be some that are broken or affected by this change.
Further information and context about this change, including how your bot may be affected can be found on this
project task page
. We welcome your questions and feedback, please write to us on this dedicated
Talk page
Thank you, -
Danny Benjafield (WMDE)
on behalf of the Wikidata For Wikimedia Projects Team.

Updates for editors
Editors can now enable the
User Info card
. This feature adds an icon next to usernames on history pages and similar user-contribution log pages. When you tap or click on the icon, it displays data related to that user account such as the number of edits, reverted edits, blocks, and more. It's part of a broader project to make it easier for moderators to evaluate account trustworthiness. The feature can be enabled in
your global preferences
, and later this week it will be available in local preferences.
Everybody is invited to share comments on
Collaborative Contributions
, a project recently launched by the
Connection team
. The project aims to create a new way to display the impact of collaborative editing activities (such as edit-a-thons, backlog drives, and WikiProjects) on the wikis. Post your comments on the
project talk page
Administrators can now define the default block duration for temporary accounts. To do that, they need to create a page named
MediaWiki:Ipb-default-expiry-temporary-account
and use a value defined in
MediaWiki:Ipboptions
. This allows administrators to easily block temporary accounts for 90 days, which is functionally equivalent to an indefinite block. The advantage of this solution is that it does not clutter Special:BlockList.

Gadgets can now include
.vue
files. This makes it easier to develop modern user interfaces using
Vue.js
, in particular using
Codex
, the official design system of Wikimedia.
Codex icons
can be loaded through the gadget definition.
The documentation
has examples. For user scripts that use Vue.js, an
API module
now exists to load Codex icons.
Module developers can now use a
Lua interface
to simplify the preparation of Lua modules for translation on Meta-Wiki. This improvement makes it easier for translators to find and edit module strings without dealing with raw Lua code. It helps prevent mistakes that could break the module during translation. Module developers and translators are invited to
watch the demo video
, read more about
translatable modules
to understand how it works, refer to Meta-Wiki's
Module:User Wikimedia project
for example usage, and
share their feedback
on how well it addresses the challenges in their workflow. The interface still has some performance issues, so it should not be used in widely used modules yet.
Developers of external tools that connect to Wikimedia pages must set a user-agent that complies with
the user-agent policy
. This policy will start to be more strongly enforced in August because of external crawlers that are
overusing
Wikimedia's resources. Tools that are hosted on Wikimedia's Toolforge or Cloud VPS will not be affected by this for now, but should still set a user-agent.
More technical details are available
, and related questions are welcome in that task.
Parsoid Read Views is going to be rolling out to some smaller Wikipedias over the next few weeks, following the successful transition of Wikivoyages and Wiktionaries to Parsoid Read Views. For more information, see the

the Wikimedia Foundation can try to improve communication with community. Feedback on the proposals are welcomed until August 22 on
this talk page
The search bar on the Minerva skin (mobile) has been updated to use the same type-ahead search component that is used on the Vector 2022 skin. There are no changes in search functionality but there are minor visual changes. Specifically, the close-search button has been changed from an "X" to a back arrow. This helps to distinguish it from the other "X" button that is used to clear any text.
Editors on some wikis will see a new toggle for "Group results by page" on watchlist, related changes, and recent changes pages. This is
an A/B experiment
that is planned to start on August 11, and will run for 3–6 weeks on the Bengali, Chinese, Czech, French, Greek, Portuguese, and Urdu Wikipedias. The experiment will examine how making this feature more discoverable might affect editors' ability to find the edits they are looking for.

The Editing team wants to compile a list of templates, jargon terms, and policies used in edit summaries when a copyright violation is removed. This will help them identify the number of edits reverted due to copyright issues. We invite community members from the following Wikis to list these terms in
T402601
, or to share their list with
Trizek_(WMF)
Arabic Wikipedia
Czech Wikipedia
German Wikipedia

Spanish Wikipedia
Persian Wikipedia
French Wikipedia
Hebrew Wikipedia

Ukrainian Wikipedia
Vietnamese Wikipedia
Chinese Wikipedia
. This project is open until September 9th 2025.
Updates for editors
The
CampaignEvents extension
has been enabled for all Wikisources. The extension makes it easier to organize and participate in collaborative activities, like edit-a-thons and WikiProjects, on the wikis. The extension has three features:
Event Registration
Collaboration List
, and
Invitation List
. To request the extension for your wiki, visit the Deployment information page.
The lists in the footer of the editing interface, such as "Templates used on this page," will now be organized into columns when there is enough space. This enhancement minimizes scrolling when editing lengthy articles on Wikipedia.
On September 3rd, 2025 we will increase the sampling percentages of our
group by toggle experiment
of the
Special:RecentChanges
Special:Watchlist
, and
Special:RelatedChanges
pages on the Chinese, French, and Portuguese Wikipedias to 100 percent, allowing more editors to be part of this experiment. This adjustment is intended to ensure we have sufficient data to make informed decisions when evaluating the experiment results.
Upon clicking an empty search bar, logged-out users will see suggestions of articles for further reading on English Wikipedia beginning the week of September 22. The feature will be available on both desktop and mobile. All non-English wikis received this change in June and July. The goal is to make it easier for users to find articles.

Wikifunctions now has a new capability called "lightweight enumeration types", an enumeration type is simply a fixed set of values that's in the type's definition. This capability makes it quick and easy to define such a type, and allows for the reuse of values that are already present in Wikidata. Here is
a newsletter
to learn more.
The latest

Weekly highlight
The Editing team is working on a new check:
Paste check
. This check informs newcomers who paste text into Wikipedia that the content might not be accepted. This check is an effort to increase the likelihood that the new content people are adding to Wikipedia is aligned with the Movement's commitment to offering information under a free content license. This check will soon be tested at a few wikis. If your community is interested in this test, please

Updates for editors
Later this week, users of the "
Improved Syntax Highlighting
beta feature
will be able to use a
linting tool
to see errors or other potential problems in wikitext in real time. See the
help page for more information
When browsing a wiki (like
en.wikipedia.org
), the software responds in one of two ways: a desktop page, or a redirect to a mobile version on an "m" domain (like
en.m.wikipedia.org
). Over the next three weeks, MediaWiki will start displaying the mobile version to mobile devices directly on the standard domain, without this redirect. This change does not affect existing m-dot URLs, or the "Desktop view" opt-out.
When an edit changes the categories of a page, the changes to the category membership counts are now happening asynchronously. This improves the speed of saving edits, especially when moving many pages to or from the same category, and reduces the risk of site outages, but it means that the counts can show outdated information for a few minutes.
Edits on Wikidata to qualifiers (properties and values) and references (properties and values) in a Wikidata item statement will now not add entries to the RecentChanges or Watchlist pages on all other Wikis. This is a temporary change to improve performance while other solutions are created. Wikidata's own pages remain unchanged.
Japanese-language wikis have had a major upgrade to the way that search works. The new search should generally give more accurate and more relevant search results.

Updates for editors
References lists that are made using the

tag
will now automatically display with columns in Vector 2022 when readers are using its 'standard' settings for text-size and page-width.
Starting in the week of October 6, on
small wikis
and
medium wikis
that have the
CampaignEvents extension
enabled, all autoconfirmed users will be able to use
Event Registration
as an organizer. No changes will be made for
large wikis
unless requested in Phabricator. This change is being made to make it easier for more people to use Event Registration, especially on wikis that are less likely to have policies related to the Event Organizer right.
Users that search using regular expressions (regex) can now use additional features including:
for the
intitle:
keyword:
metacharacters
for start-of-line (
) and end-of-line (
) anchors
for both
intitle:
and
insource:
keywords: shorthand
character classes
for digits (
\d
), whitespace (
\s
), and word characters (
\w
); and
escape codes
for line feed (
\r
), newline (
\n
), tab (
\t
), and unicode (e.g.
\uHHHH
).
When you search for text that looks like an IP, the system will now show search results. It used to take you to the contributions for that IP instead of showing search results.
All wikis will be read-only
for a few minutes on September 24. This is planned at
15:00 UTC
. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests which happen twice a year. You can

The MediaWiki Interfaces team is redesigning the Wikimedia REST API Sandbox with Codex. If you have feedback on improvements for the API documentation or what makes developer experiences smooth (or frustrating), you’re invited to
join an upcoming discovery interview
, or
leave feedback onwiki
Edits to Wikidata aliases (an alternative name for an item or a property) will now be shown in RecentChanges and Watchlist entries on other wikis less often, reducing unnecessary notifications. This will reduce the overall quantity of 'noisy' entries. Wikidata's own pages remain unchanged.
The new
Unicode 17.0
version has been released. The
datasets on Commons
for the
Module:Unicode data
have been updated. Wikipedias that do not use the Commons datasets should either update their own data or switch to the Commons datasets.
Users of the

On September 24th at 15:00 UTC
, all Wikimedia sites users will experience a brief read-only period due to a scheduled
datacenter server switchover
. The Wikimedia Foundation's Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team will redirect all traffic from one primary server to its backup. You can listen to the switchover using the
"Listen to Wikipedia"
tool, where you will hear edits stop for a few minutes during the read-only phase, then resume. This twice-yearly datacenter server switchover ensures reliability by testing the backup datacenter, so that our sites can stay online even if the primary datacenter fails. You can
read more about the process on the Diff blog
Updates for editors
Editors of
60 more Wiktionaries
will soon be able to call
functions from Wikifunctions
and integrate them into their pages. A function takes one or more inputs and transforms them into a desired output, like adding numbers, converting miles to meters, calculating elapsed time, or declining a word into a case. They will join the other
65 Wiktionary language editions
, which already have access to embedded Wikifunctions calls. Later this year, plans are in place to expand to more Wiktionaries and the Incubator.
A new
parser function
has been added:
{{#contentmodel}}
. Template editors and admins can use it to get the localized or canonical name of the
content model
of a specific page. The function makes it easier to create and edit system messages, such as
MediaWiki:editinginterface
, even when you switch types of pages, like wiki, JavaScript, CSS or JSON page.
Adding or editing a
DISPLAYTITLE
for an article using VisualEditor will no longer be broken. Editors who use VisualEditor mode to modify the
{{DISPLAYTITLE}}
would no longer have the literal text "DISPLAYTITLE" or its localized variant added to their articles. A list of pages that may have been affected and might need cleanup is documented in
this ticket
Beta users of the Wikipedia Android app can now try the redesigned
Activity tab
, which replaces the Edits tab. The new tab offers personalized insights into reading, editing, and donation activity, while simplifying navigation and making app use more engaging.

A major software upgrade has been made to
Phabricator
. The update introduces performance improvements, a refreshed search interface, enhancements to Maniphest task search, updates to user profile pages and project workboards, new Herald automation features, as well as general text input, mobile experience improvements and more.
Updates for editors
The Community Tech team will release the new Community Wishlist extension on October 1, that will improve the way wishes will be submitted. The new extension will allow users to add tags to their wishes to better categorise them, and (in a future iteration) to filter them by status, tags and focus areas. It will also be possible to support individual wishes again, as requested by the community in many instances. The old system will be retired. There will be a brief period of downtime while the extension is deployed and wishes are migrated to the new system. You can read more about this
in the latest update
or you can consult the
current documentation on MediaWiki
As announced
on Diff blog
, the production trial of the
hCaptcha
service for bot detection has begun. The trial is currently using hCaptcha to protect account creation on Chinese, Persian, Portuguese, Indonesian, Japanese, and Turkish Wikipedias, where it will replace our existing
CAPTCHA
(FancyCaptcha). The goal with the trial is to better block bots while also improving usability and accessibility for users who encounter CAPTCHA challenges.
The
CampaignEvents
extension has been
deployed
to Wikimedia Commons. The extension makes it easier to organize and participate in collaborative activities, like edit-a-thons and WikiProjects, on the wikis. On Commons, anyone who is a registered user can use it as an event participant. To use it as an organizer, someone needs to have the
event organizer right
Sub-referencing
, a new feature to re-use references with different details has been released to German Wikipedia. You can
test the feature
on testwiki or
on betawiki
as well. Please share your thoughts on
using templates in sub-references
or
volunteer to become a pilot wiki
On wikis using the
Mentorship
system, communities can now opt experienced editors out of Mentorship through
تایبەت:CommunityConfiguration/Mentorship
. Within this setting, communities may define thresholds, based on edit count and account age, to decide when an editor is considered experienced enough to no longer receive Mentorship.
The Editing Team and the Machine Learning Team are working on a new check for newcomers:
Tone check
. Using a prediction model, this check will encourage editors to improve the tone of their edits, using artificial intelligence. We invite volunteers to review the first version of the Tone language model for the following languages: Arabic, Czech, German, Hebrew, Indonesian, Dutch, Polish, Russian, Turkish, Chinese, Farsi, Italian, Norwegian, Romanian and Latvian. Users from these wikis interested in reviewing this model are
invited to sign up at MediaWiki.org
. The deadline to sign up is on October 3, which will be the start date of the test.
The rollout of
multiblocks
had the side effect that non-active block logs may have been shown on
تایبەت:بەشدارییەکان
and on blocked users' user and user_talk pages. This issue will be fully resolved in a few days. As part of the fix,
messages prefixed with
sp-contributions-blocked-notice
will be removed and replaced with
those prefixed with
blocked-notice-logextract
in a few weeks. Please help translate the new messages and update any local overrides if needed.
There was a bug with links added using visual editor if they included characters such as
[ ] |
after the fragment identifier (

A new
Unsupported Tools Working Group
has been formed as part of ongoing efforts to collectively determine technical work priorities, similar to the

Hello
Wikimedians,
Apologies if this message is not in your language.
Please help translate to your language
The
Reader Experience team
will launch the Dark mode feature for anonymous users on all Wikimedia sites, including yours, on October 29, 2025.
Dark mode
is an option that allows users to view pages in light-coloured text, and icons on a dark background. Once it is available for anonymous users, they can enable it when using various devices. More information on ways to enable it can be found on
this page
Given many pages are still not compatible with dark mode this will be an opt-in feature and not automatically apply to pages.
Dark mode requires modifications to content pages and templates, and since our initial launch
in July 2024
, we have been working with communities and helping them prepare for dark mode. Before the rollout, it is essential that template authors and technical contributors test dark mode and read
this page
to learn how to make pages Dark mode-ready and address any compatibility issues found in templates.
We will fix most color compatibility issues only on the most-viewed pages on projects with over 5 million monthly page views. Technical contributors with an account should opt into dark mode currently using preferences or settings and test pages and seek help before the release to ensure everything complies before the enablement.
If you have any questions or need help, please
contact the Reader Experience team
for support.
Thank you!

Paste Check
is a new Edit Check feature to help avoid and fight copyright violations. When editors paste text into an article, Paste Check prompts them to confirm the origin and licensing of the content. Starting Wednesday, 8 October,
22 wikis will test Paste Check
. Paste Check will help new volunteers understand and follow the policies and guidelines necessary to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia projects.
Updates for editors
Mobile devices will receive mobile articles directly on the standard domain (like
en.wikipedia.org
), instead of via a redirect to an "m" domain (like
en.m.wikipedia.org
). This change improves performance. This week it will be enabled on Wikipedias. The existing mobile URLs and the "Desktop view" opt-out remain available.
New
date filters
creationdate:
and
lasteditdate:
, are now available in the wiki search engine. This allows users to filter search results by a page's first or last revision date. The filters support comparison operators (e.g.
>2024
) and relative dates (e.g.
today-1d
), making it easier to find recently updated content or pages within specific age ranges.
Wikifunctions
now supports rich text in embedded calls across the 150 wikis where it's enabled. To showcase this, the team created a
Latin declination table
that Wiktionary editors can use to automatically generate noun forms, producing clear, formatted results — see an
example output
. If you need any help or have any feedback, please
contact the Wikifunctions Team
An edit link will now appear inside the categories box on article pages for logged in users, which will directly launch the VisualEditor category dialog.

will roll out
Dark Mode
user interface on all Wikimedia sites on October 29, 2025. All anonymous users of Wikimedia sites will have the option to activate a color scheme that features light-colored text on a dark background. This is designed to provide a more comfortable reading experience, especially in low-light situations. Template authors and technical contributors are encouraged to
learn how to make pages ready for Dark mode
and address any compatibility issues found in templates in their wiki before the enablement. Please contact the Web team for questions or any support on
this talk page
before the enablement.
Starting on Monday, October 6, API endpoints under the
rest.php
path will be rerouted through a new internal API Gateway. Individual wikis will be updated based on the standard release groups, with total traffic increased over time. This change is expected to be non-breaking and non-disruptive. If any issues are observed, please file a Phabricator ticket to the
Service Ops team board

Weekly highlight
Last week, improvements to account security and two-factor authentication (2FA) features were enabled across all wikis. These changes include user interface improvements for
Special:AccountSecurity
, the support of multiple 2FA methods via authenticator apps and portable security keys (previously users could only enable one method), and a new Recovery Codes module which facilitates fewer account lockouts due to lost two-factor apps and devices. As part of the
Account Security
project, work is continuing through the rest of 2025 on further user experience improvements, and support for passkeys as an alternate second factor.
Updates for editors
Another part of the Account security project is making 2FA generally available to all users. Along with editors with advanced privileges, such as administrators and bureaucrats, 40% of editors now have access to 2FA. You can check if you have access at
Special:AccountSecurity
. Instructions for activation are on the linked page. The plan is to continue increasing availability if it is determined that the user support capabilities are able to support global usage.
This week, users at wikis where talk page
Usability Improvements
are already available by default (everywhere
except
the 12 wikis listed in
T379264
) will gain the ability to Thank a comment directly from the talk page it appears on. Before this change, Thanking could only be done by visiting the revision history of the talk page. You can

Updates for editors
The Wikipedia iOS app has launched an A/B/C test of improvements made to the tabbed browsing feature for select regions and languages. The test, named “More dynamic tabs”, explores new tab experiences and includes “Did you know” and “Because you read” article recommendations. You can
read more on the project page
Autoconfirmed users on
small
and
medium wikis
with the CampaignEvents extension can now use
Event Registration
without the Event Organizer right. This feature lets organizers enable registration, manage participants, and lets users register with one click instead of signing event pages.

٣١
community-submitted
tasks
that were
resolved last week
. For example, the issue of flashing colors when holding or pressing the arrow keys under the dark mode settings in Vector 2022 has been fixed.
Updates for technical contributors
The CampaignEvents extension will be deployed to all remaining wikis during the week of 17 November 2025. The extension currently includes three features: Event Registration, Collaboration List, and Invitation List. For this rollout, Invitation List will not be enabled on Wikifunctions and MediaWiki unless requested by those communities.

The SwaggerUI-based REST sandbox experience is now live on all wiki projects. The sandbox can be accessed through the
تایبەت:RestSandbox
page. Please report any issues to the MediaWiki Interfaces team board, or join the discussion on the
project launch
page.
Transform endpoints with a trailing slash path in the MediaWiki REST API are now marked as deprecated. They will remain functional during this time, but removal is expected by the end of January 2026. All API users currently calling them are encouraged to transition to the non-trailing slash versions. Both endpoint variations can be found and tested using the
REST Sandbox
. See the
MediaWiki REST API Deprecation
page for more detailed information about the API deprecation policies and procedures.
A dedicated
changelog now exists for the MediaWiki REST API
. The changelog provides an overview of these changes, making it easier for developers to keep track of improvements and iterations. Announcements will also continue to flow through the standard communication channels, including Tech News and email distribution lists, but can now be more easily referenced from a central location. If you have feedback about the style, structure, or content of this changelog, please
join the discussion
Administrators can delete the tracking category which was previously added by the JsonConfig extension, as it is no longer used. See the categories linked from
Q130635582
. It is OK if there are still pages listed in the category as that is just a caching issue, and they will be automatically cleared out the next time each page is edited.

Updates for editors
Administrators will now find that
تایبەت:کردنەیەکی مێژوو
is now significantly more flexible about what it can merge. It can now merge sections taken from the middle of the history of the source (rather than only the start) and insert revisions anywhere in the history of the destination page (rather than only the start).
For users with "
بە شێوەیەکی خۆگەڕ بەشداری لە بابەتەکان بکە
enabled in their preferences
, starting a new topic or adding a reply to an existing topic will now subscribe them to replies to that topic. Previously, this would only happen if the DiscussionTools "
بابەت دابنێ
" or "
وەڵامدانەوە
" widgets were used. When DiscussionTools was originally launched existing accounts were not opted in to automatic topic subscriptions, so this change should primarily affect newer accounts and users who have deliberately changed their preferences since that time.
Scribunto modules can now be used to
generate SVG images
. This can be used to build charts, graphics and other visualizations dynamically through Lua, reducing the need to compose them externally and upload them as files.
Wikimedia sites now provide all anonymous users with the option to enable a dark mode color scheme, featuring light-colored text on a dark background. This enhancement aims to deliver a more enjoyable reading experience, especially in dimly lit environments.
Users with large watchlists have long faced timeouts when editing
Special:EditWatchlist
. The page now loads entries in smaller sections instead of all at once due to a paging update, allowing everyone to edit their watchlists smoothly. As part of the database update, sorting by expiry has been removed because it was over 100× slower than sorting by title. A
community wish
has been created to explore alternative ways to restore sort-by-expiry. If this feature is important to you, please support the wish!

Updates for technical contributors
Since 2019 the
Wikimedia URL Shortener
at
is available for all Wikimedia wikis to create short links to articles, permalinks, diffs, etc. It is available in the sidebar as "Get shortened URL". There are 30 wikis that also install an older "ShortUrl" extension. The old extension will soon be removed. This means
/s/
URLs will not be advertised under article titles via HTML
class="title-shortlink"
. The
/s/
URLs will keep working.
On Thursday, October 30, the
MediaWiki Interfaces
and
SRE Service Operations
teams began rerouting Action API traffic through a common API gateway. Individual wikis will be updated based on the standard release groups, with total traffic increased over time. This change is expected to be non-breaking and non-disruptive. If any issues are observed, please file a Phabricator ticket to the
Service Ops team
board.
MediaWiki Train deployments will pause for the final two weeks of 2025: 22 December and 29 December. Backport windows will also pause between Monday, 22 December 2025 and Thursday, 2 January 2026. A backport window is a scheduled time to add things like bug fixes and configuration changes. There are seven deployment trains remaining for 2025.

In 2025, the Wikimedia Foundation reported that AI systems and search engines increasingly use Wikipedia content without driving users to the site, contributing to an 8% drop in human pageviews compared to 2024. After detecting bots disguised as humans, Wikimedia updated its traffic data to reflect this shift. Read more about current user trends on Wikipedia in

" buttons in the wikitext editor will now carry over certain URL parameters like '
useskin
', '
uselang
' and '
section
'. This update also fixes an issue where, if the browser crashed while previewing an edit to a single section, saving this edit could overwrite the entire page with just that section’s content.
Wikivoyage wikis can use
colored map markers in the article text
. The text of these markers will now be shown in contrasting black or white color, instead of always being white. Local workarounds for the problem can be removed.
The Activity tab in the Wikipedia Android app is now available for all users. The new tab offers personalized insights into reading, editing, and donation activity, while simplifying navigation and making app use more engaging.
The Reader Growth team is launching an experiment called "Image browsing" to test how to make it easier for readers to browse and discover images on Wikipedia articles. This experiment, a mobile-only A/B test, will go live on English Wikipedia in the week of November 17 and will run for four weeks, affecting 0.05% of users on English wiki. The test launched on November 3 on Arabic, Chinese, French, Indonesian, and Vietnamese wikis, affecting up to 10% of users on those wikis.

Updates for editors
Last week, the
Wikimedia Search Team
recreated the "DWIM" (Do What I Mean) gadget functionality server-side, for Russian and Hebrew Wikipedias. This feature adds cross-keyboard suggestions to the standard search-box suggestions. For example, searching for
cxfcnmt
on Russian Wikipedia will now add suggestions for
счастье
("happiness") that the user probably intended. They plan to enable this feature for other Russian and Hebrew wikis this week.
Later this week, users of the "
Improved Syntax Highlighting

will have syntax highlighting available in
DiscussionTools
. This requires that the "
ئامرازەکانی دەستکاریکردن لە دۆخی سەرچاوەدا چالاک بکە

The MediaWiki Interfaces team is deprecating XSLT stylesheets within the Action API. Support for
format=xml
&xlst={stylesheet}
will be removed from Wikimedia projects by the end of November, 2025. In addition, it will soon be disabled by default in MediaWiki release versions: v1.43 (LTS), v1.44, and v1.45. Support for XSLT stylesheets will be fully removed from MediaWiki v1.46 (expected to release between April and May 2026).
The WDQS legacy endpoint (
query-legacy-full.wikidata.org
) will be decommissioned at the end of December 2025, and finally closed down on 7th January 2026. After this date, users should expect requests to query.wikidata.org that require the full graph to fail or return invalid results if they are not rewritten to use SPARQL federation. The team encourages users to ensure that tools and workflows use the supported WDQS endpoints (
- Main graph or
- Scholarly graph). For support with migrating use cases, please review the
Data Access
and
Request a Query
pages for details and assistance on alternative access methods.

Weekly highlight
Anybody who wishes to secure their user account can now use
two-factor authentication
(2FA). This is available to all registered users of all Wikimedia projects. This is part of the
Account Security
initiative. Later, 2FA will be required for all users who can take security- or privacy-sensitive actions.
Updates for editors
Following last week's deployments, the
Add a link
feature, which allows editors to add suggested links during editing, will be available to an additional
33 Wikipedias
starting on 9 December. This expansion is possible thanks to the new prediction model that now supports all languages, including those that were previously not covered. While the feature has been available on most Wikipedias for some time, this rollout brings us closer to using the improved model everywhere. If you have any questions or would like more details please contact
Trizek (WMF)
Last week, the
Search Platform team
added
transliterated
as-you-type search suggestions to Georgian wikis. If there are only a few regular search suggestions, then queries in Latin or Cyrillic script
are now rewritten into Georgian script
to look for more matches. For example, searching for either
bedniereba
or
бедниереба
will now suggest the existing article about
ბედნიერება
("happiness"). You can recommend other languages where transliterated suggestions would be useful
on Phabricator
for future development.
Later this week, a controlled experiment will begin for editors on the 100 largest Wikipedias who are editing a section in the mobile web visual editor. 50% of these editors will notice a new "Edit full page" button that will enable them to expand their editing session to the whole page. This feature is intended to make it easier for people on mobile web to edit any article section, regardless of which section-edit icon they tapped to begin. The experiment will last ~4 weeks. You can find
more details
about the project.
Later this week, the
Reader Growth team
will launch a
mobile web experiment
to expand all article sections by default (currently they are collapsed by default) and pin the section header the user is currently reading to the top of the page. The experiment will affect 10% of users on Arabic, Chinese, French, Indonesian, and Vietnamese Wikipedias.
The
Wikipedia Year in Review 2025
, a feature in the Wikipedia mobile apps (iOS and Android) that provides users with a personalised summary of their engagement with Wikipedia over the year, is now available on the iOS and Android apps. This edition includes expanded personalised insights, improved reading highlights, new donor messaging, and updated designs. Open the app to view your Year in Review and explore your reading journey from 2025.
A recent software bug caused edits made with VisualEditor to make unintended changes to wikitext, including removing whitespace and replacing spaces with underscores in wikilinks inside citations. This was partially fixed last week, and further fixes are in progress. Editors who used VisualEditor between November 28 and December 2 should review their edits for unexpected modifications.

to distinguish from wiki content. The attribute has been replaced with
data-mw-interface=""
, to avoid potential conflicts with other
data-mw
attributes, which are generated by Parsoid.
There is no new MediaWiki version this week or next week.
Meetings and events
The
Wikimedia Hackathon Northwestern Europe 2026

The Wikimedia Foundation has shared some guiding questions for the July 2026–June 2027 Annual Plan on
Meta
and
Diff
. These focus on global trends, faster and healthier experimentation, better support for newcomers, strengthening editors and advanced users, improving collaboration across projects, and growing and retaining readership. Feedback and ideas are welcome on the

Updates for editors
As part of the current work of Community Tech team on the
Multiple watchlists
project, the display of
EditWatchlist
will be updated as a first step towards multiple watchlists. Additionally, the pagination on
will be updated too, as a part of the work on the
Revamp pagination / page navigation
wish.
The Global Watchlist
is a MediaWiki
extension
that lets you see your watchlists from different wikis on the same page. It was recently updated to look more like the regular
Watchlist
, such as preparing it for temporary accounts in IP masking (including rerouting user links to contributions pages), making page titles bold, and opening links in edit summaries and tags in new browser tabs.

Updates for editors
The tray shown on
Special:Diff
in mobile view has been redesigned. It is now collapsed by default, and incorporates a link to undo the edit being viewed, making it easier for mobile editors and reviewers to take action while keeping the interface uncluttered.
The Global Watchlist
lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on one page. The
extension
continues to improve — it now automatically determines the text direction (ensuring correct display of sites with unusual domain names) and shows detailed descriptions for log actions. Later this week, a new permanent link for page creations and CSS classes for each entry element will be added.

Updates for technical contributors
As mentioned in the
October 2025 deprecation announcement
, MediaWiki Interfaces team will begin sunsetting all transform endpoints containing a trailing slash from the MediaWiki REST API the week of January 26. Changes are expected to roll out to all wikis on or before January 30th. All API users currently calling them are encouraged to transition to the non-trailing slash versions. Both endpoint variations can be found, compared, and tested using the
REST Sandbox
. If you have questions or encounter any problems, please file a ticket in Phabricator to the

Updates for editors
Wikimedia Foundation invites comments on
proposed future
of the
Product and Technology Advisory Council
until 28 February.
All users with registered accounts can now use passkeys for
two-factor authentication
(2FA). Passkeys are a simple way to log in without using a second device. They verify the user's identity using a fingerprint, face scan, or a PIN code. To set up a passkey, first set up a regular 2FA method. Currently, to log in with a passkey, users must also use a password. Later this quarter, passwordless login will allow users to log in with a single click and a passkey. Users with advanced rights will also be required to have 2FA enabled. This is part of the
Account Security
project.
Unregistered contributors on blocked IPs or blocked IP ranges can now interact on-wiki to appeal a block by creating a temporary account to appeal a block on the user talk page, unless the "prevent this user from editing their own talk page" is enabled. This solves the problem of logged-out users unable to use the default unblock process via user talk page.
View all
٢٠
community-submitted
tasks
that were
resolved last week
. For example, the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) methods description on the management page has been updated. It is now clearer and easier for users to understand and make use of.
Updates for technical contributors
A new AbuseFilter variable,
account_type
, has been added to provide a reliable way to determine the account type being created in the
createaccount
and
autocreateaccount
actions. As part of this change, the variable
accountname
has been renamed to
account_name
, and
accountname
is now deprecated. Edit filter managers should update any filters that use hardcoded account type checks or the deprecated variable.
Image thumbnails that are requested in non-standard sizes, and using non-standard methods such as direct requests to
upload.wikimedia.org/…
will stop working in the near future. This change is to prevent ongoing external abuse by web-scrapers and bots. Some users with custom CSS/JS, Interface Admins who can fix gadgets and local skins, and Tool-authors, will need to update their code to use standard thumbnail sizes.
Details, search-links, and examples of how to fix them, are available in the task

Updates for editors
Logged-in contributors who manage large or complex watchlists can now organise and filter watched pages in ways that improve their workflows with the new
Watchlist labels
feature. By adding custom labels (for example: pages you created, pages being monitored for vandalism, or discussion pages) users can more quickly identify what needs attention, reduce cognitive load, and respond more efficiently. This improves watchlist usability, especially for highly active editors.
A new feature available on
Special:Contributions
shows
temporary accounts
that are likely operated by the same person, and so makes patrolling less time-consuming. Upon checking contributions of a temporary account, users with access to temporary account IP addresses can now see a view of contributions from the related temporary accounts. The feature looks up all the IPs associated with a given temporary account within the data retention period and shows all the contributions of all temporary accounts that have used these IPs.
When editors preview a wikitext edit, the reminder box that they are only seeing a preview (which is shown at the top), now has a grey/neutral background instead of a yellow/warning background. This makes it easier to distinguish preview notes from actual warnings (for example, edit conflicts or problematic redirect targets), which will now be shown in separate warning or error boxes.
The
Global Watchlist
lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on one page. The
extension
continues to improve — it now properly supports more than one Wikibase site, for example both
Wikidata
and
testwikidata
. In addition, issues regarding text direction have been fixed for users who prefer Wikidata or other Wikibase sites in right-to-left (RTL) languages.
The automatic "magic links" for ISBN, RFC, and PMID numbers have been
deprecated in wikitext since 2021
due to inflexibility and difficulties with localization. Several wikis have successfully replaced RFC and PMID magic links with equivalent external links, but a template was often required to replace the functionality of the ISBN magic link. There is now a new
built-in parser function
{{#isbn}}
available to replace the basic functionality of the ISBN magic link. This makes it easier for wikis who wish to migrate off of the deprecated magic link functionality to do so.
Two new wikis have been created:

Weekly highlight
The
SRE Team
will be performing a cleanup of Wikimedia's
Etherpad
instance, the web-based editor for real-time collaborative document editing. All pads will be permanently deleted after 30 April, 2026 – if there are still migration projects in progress at that point the team can revisit the date on a case by case basis. Please create local backups of any content you wish to keep, as deleted data cannot be recovered. This cleanup helps reduce database size and minimize infrastructure footprint. Etherpad will continue to support real-time collaboration, but long-term storage should not be expected. Additional cleanups may occur in the future without prior notice.
Updates for editors
The Information Retrieval team will be launching an
Android mobile app experiment
that tests hybrid search capabilities which can handle both semantic and keyword queries. The improvement of on-platform search will enable readers to find what they’re looking for directly on Wikipedia more easily. The experiment will first be launched on Greek Wikipedia in late February, followed by English, French, and Portuguese in March.
on Diff blog.
The Reader Growth team will run
an experiment
for mobile web users, that adds a table of contents and automatically expands all article sections, to learn more about navigation issues they face. The test will be available on Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Indonesian, and Vietnamese Wikipedias.
Previously, site notices (
میدیاویکی:Sitenotice
and
میدیاویکی:Anonnotice
) would only render on the desktop site. Now, they will render on all platforms. Users on mobile web will now see these notices and be informed. Site administrators should be prepared to test and fix notices on mobile devices to avoid interference with articles. To opt out, interface admins can add
#siteNotice { display: none; }

Updates for technical contributors
New documentation is now available to help editors debug on-site search features. It supports troubleshooting when pages do not appear in results, when ranking seems unexpected, and when you need to inspect what content is being indexed, helping make search behavior easier to understand and analyze.

Reference Check
has been deployed to English Wikipedia, completing its rollout across all Wikipedias. The feature prompts newcomers to add a citation before publishing new content, helping reduce common citation-related reverts and improve verifiability. In A/B testing, the impact was substantial: newcomers shown Reference Check were approximately 2.2 times more likely to include a reference on desktop and about 17.5 times more likely on mobile web.
Updates for editors
The
InterwikiSorting extension
, which allowed for the
sorting of interwiki links
, has been undeployed from Wikipedia. As a result, editors who had enabled interwiki link sorting in non-compact mode (full list format) will now see links reordered. The links moving forward will be listed in the alphabetical order of language code.
Later this week, people who are editing a page-section using the mobile visual editor, will notice a new "Edit full page" button. When tapped, you will be able to edit the entire article. This helps when the change you want to make is outside the section you initially opened.
The Reader Experience team
is inviting editors to assess whether dark mode should still be considered "beta" on their wiki, based on their experience of how well it functions on desktop and mobile. If the feature is deemed mature, editors can update the interface messages in
MediaWiki:skin-theme-description
and
MediaWiki:Vector-night-mode-beta-tag
to indicate that dark mode is ready and no longer considered beta.
The improved
Activity tab
which displays user-insights is now available to all users of the Wikipedia iOS app (version 7.9.0 and later). Following earlier A/B testing that showed higher account creation among users with access to the feature, it has been rolled out to 100% of users along with some updates. The Activity tab now shows your edited articles in the timeline, offers editing impact insights like contribution counts and article view trends, and customization options to improve in-app experience for users.

Wikipedia 25
Birthday mode
is now live on Betawi, Breton, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English, French, Gorontalo, Indonesian, Italian, Luxembourgish, Madurese, Sicilian, Spanish, Thai, and Vietnamese Wikipedias! This limited-time campaign feature celebrates 25 years of Wikipedia with a birthday mascot, Baby Globe. When turned on, Baby Globe is shown on
~2,500 articles
, waiting to be discovered by readers. Communities can choose to turn Birthday mode on by getting consensus from their community and asking an admin to enable the feature and customize it via
community configuration
on the local wiki.
Updates for editors
Sub-referencing
, a new feature to re-use references with different details has been released to Swedish Wikipedia, Polish Wikipedia and
a couple of other wikis
. You can
try the feature
on these projects or on testwiki and
betawiki
. Learnings from the first pilot wiki German Wikipedia have been
published in a report
. Reach out to the Wikimedia Deutschland team if you are
interested in becoming a pilot wiki
Paste Check
will become available at all Wikipedias this week. The feature prompts newcomers who are pasting text they are not likely to have written into VisualEditor to consider whether doing so risks a copyright violation. Paste Check
tags
all edits where it is shown for potential review. Local administrators can configure various aspects of the feature via
تایبەت:EditChecks
Research
across 22 wikis found that Paste Check resulted in an 18% decrease in relative reverted-edits compared to the control group. Translators can
help to localize
this and related features.
The
Reader Experience team
will be standardizing the user menu in the top right for all mobile users so that it is closer to the desktop experience. Currently this user menu is only visible to users with Advanced Mobile Controls (AMC) turned on. The only change is that a couple buttons previously in the left-side menu will move to the top right for users who do not have AMC turned on. This change is expected to go out March 9 and seeks to improve the user interface.
Starting in the week of March 2, the emails sent out when an email address was added, removed, or changed for an account will switch to a substantially nicer and clearer HTML email from the prior plaintext one.
Notifications are currently limited to 2,000 historic entries per user, and extend back to 2013 when the feature was released. This is going to be changed to only store Notifications from the last 5 years, but up to 10,000 of them. This will help with long-term infrastructure health and help to prevent more recent notifications from disappearing too soon.
The
Global Watchlist
which lets you view your watchlists from multiple wikis on a single page continues to see improvements. The latest update improves label usage experience. The
extension
now allows activating the
language fallback system
for Wikidata items without labels in the viewed language, and showing those labels in the user’s preferred Wikidata language if no
uselang=
URL parameter is provided.
The Wikipedia Android team has started a beta test of
hybrid search
on Greek Wikipedia. Hybrid search capabilities can handle both semantic and keyword queries enabling readers to find what they’re looking for directly on Wikipedia more easily.
For security reasons, members of certain user groups are
required to have two-factor authentication
(2FA) enabled. Currently, 2FA is required to use the group, but not to be a member of it. Given that this model still has some vulnerabilities, the situation will
gradually change in March
. Members of these groups will be unable to disable last 2FA method on their account, and it will be impossible to add users without 2FA to these groups. Users will still be able to add new authentication methods or remove them, as long as at least one method is continuously enabled. In the second half of March, users without 2FA will be removed from these groups. This applies to: CentralNotice administrators, checkusers, interface administrators, suppressors, Wikidata staff, Wikifunctions staff, WMF Office IT and WMF Trust & Safety. Nothing will change for other users. See the linked task for deployment schedule.

Updates for technical contributors
To help ensure
fair use of infrastructure
, over the next month the Wikimedia Foundation will implement global API rate limits across our APIs. In early March, stricter limits will be applied to unidentified requests from outside Toolforge/WMCS and API requests that are made from web browsers. In April, higher limits will be applied to identified traffic. These limits are intentionally set as high as possible to minimise impact on the community. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see
Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits
The Wikidata Query Service Linked Data Fragment (LDF) endpoint will be decommissioned in February. This endpoint served limited traffic, which was successfully migrated to other data access methods that were better suited to support existing use cases. The hardware used to support the LDF endpoint will be reallocated to support the ongoing backend migration efforts.
The new Parsoid parser
continues to be deployed to additional wikis
, improving platform sustainability and making it easier to introduce new reading and editing features. Parsoid is now the default parser on 488 WMF wikis (268 Wikipedias), now covering more than 10% of all Wikipedia page views.
The process and criteria for
requesting exceptional access
to the high volume feed of the
Wikimedia Enterprise
APIs (at no cost for mission-aligned usecases),
have now been published
. This is to provide more thorough and clearer documentation for users.
Tech Blog
, the blog dedicated to the Wikimedia technical community

. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests,
which happen twice a year
. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies.
Last week, all wikis had 2 hours of read-only time, and extended unavailability for user-scripts and gadgets. This was due to a security incident which has since been resolved. Work is ongoing to prevent re-occurrences. For current information please see the

Updates for editors
Users facing multiple blocks on mobile will now see the reasons for each block separately, instead of a generic message. This helps them understand why they are blocked and what steps they can take to resolve the issue. For example, users affected for using common VPNs (such as
iCloud Private Relay
) will receive clearer guidance on what they need to do to start editing again.
Later this week,
Suggestion Mode
will become available as a beta feature within the visual editor at all Wikipedias. This feature proactively suggests various types of actions that people can consider taking to improve Wikipedia articles, and learn about related guidelines. The feature is locally configurable, and can also be locally expanded with custom Suggestions. Current settings can be seen at
Special:EditChecks
and there are
instructions for how administrators can customize
the links to point to local guidelines. The feature is connected to
Edit check
which suggests improvements while someone is writing new content. In the future, the Editing team plans to evaluate the feature's impact with newcomers through a controlled experiment.

to all editors who use the standard syntax highlighter. If you have any questions or concerns about promoting the feature out of beta,
please share
Some changes to local user groups are performed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and logged there only. Now, interwiki rights changes will be logged both on Meta-Wiki and the wiki of the target user to make it easier to access a full record of user's rights changes on a local wiki. Past log entries for such changes will be backfilled in the coming weeks.
On wikis using
Flagged Revisions
, the number of pending changes shown on
تایبەت:گۆڕانکارییە ھەڵواسراوەکان
previously counted pages which were no longer pending review, because they have been removed from the system without being reviewed, e.g. due to being deleted, moved to a different namespace, or due to wiki configuration changes. The count will be correct now. On some wikis the number shown will be much smaller than before. There should be no change to the list of pages itself.
Wikifunctions composition language has been rewritten, resulting in a new version of the language. This change aims to increase service stability by reducing the orchestrator's memory consumption. This rewrite also enables substantial latency reduction, code simplification, and better abstractions, which will open the door to later feature additions. Read more about
the changes
Users can now sort search results alphabetically by page title. The update gives an additional option to finding pages more easily and quickly. Previously, results could be sorted by Edit date, Creation date, or Relevance. To use the new option, open 'Advanced Search' on the search results page and select 'Alphabetically' under 'Sorting Order'.

Updates for technical contributors
A new special page,
تایبەت:LintTemplateErrors
, has been created to list transcluded pages that are flagged as containing lint errors to help users discover them easily. The list is sorted by the number of transclusions with errors. For example:
تایبەت:LintTemplateErrors/night-mode-unaware-background-color
Users of the
Improved Syntax Highlighting
beta feature have been using
CodeMirror
instead of
CodeEditor
for syntax highlighting when editing JavaScript, CSS, JSON, Vue and Lua content pages, for some time now. Along with promoting CodeMirror 6 out of beta, the plan is to replace CodeEditor as the standard editor for these content models by May 2026.
Feedback or concerns are welcome
The
CodeMirror
JavaScript modules will soon be upgraded to CodeMirror 6. Leading up to the upgrade, loading the
ext.CodeMirror
or
ext.CodeMirror.lib
modules from gadgets and user scripts was deprecated in July 2025. The use of the
ext.CodeMirror.switch
hook was also deprecated in March 2025. Contributors can now make their scripts or gadgets compatible with CodeMirror 6. See the
migration guide
for more information.
The MediaWiki Interfaces team is expanding coverage of REST API module definitions to include
extension APIs
. REST API modules are groups of related endpoints that can be independently managed and versioned. Modules now exist for
GrowthExperiments
and
Wikifunctions
APIs. As we migrate extension APIs to this structure, documentation will move out of the main MediaWiki OpenAPI spec and REST Sandbox view, and will instead be accessible via module-specific options in the dropdown on the
REST Sandbox
(i.e.,
تایبەت:RestSandbox
, available on all wiki projects).
The
Scribunto
extension provides different pieces of information about the wiki where the module is being used via the
mw.site
library. Starting last week, the library also provides a
way
of accessing the
wiki ID
that can be used to facilitate cross-wiki module maintenance.

Request for Comment: VisualEditor automatic reference names

Hi, I’m Johannes from
Wikimedia Deutschland
’s
Technical Wishes team
. Apologies for writing in English.
Please help translate to your language
! We are considering to work on
Community Wishlist/W17: Improve VE references' automatic names and reuse
. This has been a long-term issue for wikitext editors (see e.g.
en:WP:VisualEditor/Named references
) which has been among the top-voted wishes in several
Community Wishlist Surveys
, e.g.
2017
2019
2022
or
2023
We would like your input on the
solutions
proposed on our project page:
m:WMDE Technical Wishes/References/VisualEditor automatic reference names
. We are considering several options, which can be combined if desired by the community.
Changing the default pattern for automatically generated reference names (currently
":n"
, e.g.
":0"
":1"
...) to use the
reference type
instead (e.g.
"book_reference-1"
).
Providing a simple mechanism for communities to configure a different default name.
Generating automatic reference names based on the
domain name
(if it’s a web citation).
Generating automatic reference names based on template parameters (e.g. "title" or "last"+"first") – defined by the community.
Feedback
دەستکاری
Visit our project page
to read about our proposal in detail and share your thoughts
on metawiki
Please note
: We will only implement a solution if there’s clear consensus among the global community. Our intention is not to build the perfect solution, but to find a simple and lean one that alleviates the pain caused by auto generated names. We are aware that some experienced VisualEditor users might prefer an option to manually change reference names in VisualEditor, but such a UX intervention is difficult to achieve across reference types and thus out of scope for our team, we can only improve the auto-naming mechanism.
We are happy about suggestions for improving certain details of the proposed solutions. Any other feedback and alternative proposals are also welcome – even though it’s out of scope for us, it might still be relevant for future work on this topic.
Please support us interpreting consensus by clearly indicating your opinion (e.g. by using support/neutral/oppose templates). We are aware of
en:WP:NOTVOTE
, but given that we are facilitating this discussion with users from different wikis, potentially commenting in their native language, clearly indicating your position helps us avoid misunderstandings.
Thank you for participating!

Weekly highlight
Wikimedia site users can now log in without a password using passkeys. This is a secure method supported by fingerprint, facial recognition, or PIN. With this change, all users who opt for passwordless login will find it easier, faster, and more secure to log in to their accounts using any device. The new passkey login option currently appears as an autofill suggestion in the username field. An additional
"Log in with passkey" button
will soon be available for users who have already registered a passkey. This update will improve security and user experience. The
screen recording
demonstrates the passwordless login process step by step.
All wikis will be read-only
for a few minutes on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at
15:00 UTC
. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests,
which happen twice a year
. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies.
Updates for editors
Wikimedia site users can now export their notifications older than 5 years using a
new Toolforge tool
. This will ensure that users retain their important notifications and avoid them being lost based on the planned change to delete notifications older than 5 years, as previously announced.
Wikipedia editors in Indonesian, Thai, Turkish, and Simple English now have access to Special:PersonalDashboard. This is an
early version of an experience
that introduces newer editors to patrolling workflows, making it easier for them to move from making edits to participating in more advanced moderation work on their project.
The
Special:Block
now has two minor interface changes. Administrators can now easily perform indefinite blocks through a dedicated radio button in the expiry section. Also, choosing an indefinite expiry provides a different set of common reasons to select from, which can be changed at:
MediaWiki:Ipbreason-indef-dropdown
Mobile editors
at several wikis
can now see an improved logged-out edit warning, thanks to the recent updates from the Growth team. These changes released last week are part of ongoing efforts and tests to enhance
account creation experience on mobile
and then increase participation.

community-submitted
tasks
that were
resolved last week
. For example, the bug that prevented mobile web users from seeing the block information when affected by multiple blocks has been fixed. They can now see messages of all the blocks currently affecting them when they access Wikipedia.
Updates for technical contributors
Images built using Toolforge will soon get the upgraded buildpacks version, bringing support for newer language versions and other upstream improvements and fixes. If you use Toolforge Build Service, review the recent
cloud-announce email
and update your build configuration as necessary to ensure your tools are compatible.
The
API Portal
documentation wiki will shut down in June 2026. API keys created on the API Portal will continue to work normally. api.wikimedia.org endpoints will be deprecated gradually starting in July 2026. Documentation on the API Portal is moving to
mediawiki.org

Weekly highlight
The Beta version of
Abstract Wikipedia
a new Wikimedia project which is language-independent, was launched last week. The project allows communities to build Wikipedia articles in their native language, which can be readily accessed by other users in their own languages. The wiki is powered by instructions from Wikifunctions and also based on structured content from Wikidata.
Updates for editors
The Growth team is running an A/B test to evaluate a clearer, more user-friendly message that promotes account creation on wikis. Currently when logged-out mobile users begin editing, they see a jarring warning message that can feel abrupt and discouraging. This also presents temporary account editing as the default rather than encouraging account creation. The test is running on ten Wikipedias, including Arabic, French, Spanish and German.
The Wikimedia Apps team is inviting feedback on
how editing should work on the Wikipedia mobile apps
. The discussion focuses on improving how users access editing tools when they tap "Edit". This is part of a broader effort to convert readers who develop an interest in editing, to access a more user-friendly pathway to start contributing.

Action Required: Update templates/modules for electoral maps (Migrating from P1846 to P14226)
دەستکاری

Hello everyone,
This is a notice regarding an ongoing data migration on Wikidata that may affect your election-related templates and Lua modules (such as
Module:Itemgroup/list
).
The Change:
Currently, many templates pull electoral maps from Wikidata using the property
P1846
, combined with the qualifier
P180
Q19571328
We are migrating this data (across roughly 4,000 items) to a newly created, dedicated property:
P14226
What You Need To Do:
To ensure your templates and infoboxes do not break or lose their maps, please update your local code to fetch data from
P14226
instead of the old
P1846
P180
structure. A
list of pages
was generated using Wikimedia Global Search.
Deadline:
We are temporarily retaining the old data on
P1846
to allow for a smooth transition. However, to complete the data cleanup on Wikidata, the old
P1846
statements will be removed after
May 1, 2026
. Please update your modules and templates before this date to prevent any disruption to your wiki's election articles.
Let us know if you have any questions or need assistance with the query logic. Thank you for your help!

Updates for editors
The
CampaignEvents extension
now includes a new group goal-setting feature, enabling organizers to set and track event goals such as the number of articles created and participating contributors in real time. Similarly, participants can work toward shared targets and see their collective impact as the event unfolds. The feature is now available on all Wikimedia wikis. Learn more in
the documentation
The new
watchlist labels
feature (announced in
Tech News 2026-07
) is now available via VisualEditor, the source editor, and the 'watchstar' (or watch link, for skins that don't have a star icon). Previously it was only possible to assign labels via
EditWatchlist
. In all three places it is a new field following the expiry field.

٢٣
community-submitted

. For example, the issue where talk pages on mobile with Parsoid are unusable after empty section headers, has now been fixed.
Updates for technical contributors
The
sub-referencing feature
, which lets editors add details to an existing reference without duplicating it, will be gradually rolled out to
more wikis
later this year. Wikis using the
Reference Tooltips
gadget are encouraged to update their version (typically at
MediaWiki:Gadget-ReferenceTooltips.js
as shown
here
) to ensure compatibility. Other reference-related gadgets may also be affected.
All Wikinews editions will be closed and switched to read-only mode on 4 May 2026. Content will remain accessible, but no new edits or articles can be added. This closure was approved by the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation following extended discussions.
The
Action API
has had several formats for requested output. One of them,
format=php
, is being removed soon. Please ensure your scripts or bots use the
JSON format
. This removal should affect very few scripts and bots.
The
Special:NamespaceInfo
page now includes namespace aliases. For example "WP" for the "Project" ("Wikipedia") namespace on the German Wikipedia.

Updates for editors
On most wikis, all autoconfirmed users can now use
Special:ChangeContentModel
page to
create new pages with custom content models
, such as mass message lists, making custom page formats more accessible. Check
Special:ListGroupRights
for the status of your wiki.
The Growth team has launched an
account creation experiment
to evaluate whether adding an account creation button to the mobile web header increases new account registrations and encourages more mobile users to contribute to the wikis. The experiment is currently live on Hindi, Indonesian, Bengali, Thai, and Hebrew Wikipedia, and targets 10% of logged-out mobile web users.

Updates for editors
Reading lists
is a feature which allows readers to save articles to a list for reading later. This feature is now in beta on Arabic, French, Indonesian, Vietnamese, and Chinese Wikipedias and by default for all new accounts on all Wikipedias.
An experiment which explores extending
Page Previews to mobile web
will be launched in the week of April 20 on Arabic, English, French, Italian, Polish, and Vietnamese Wikipedias. Page Previews are pop-ups that display a thumbnail, lead paragraph, and a link to open the full article of a blue link, thereby improving content discovery. The feature is already available on desktop and in the apps.

Following the recent implementation of global API rate limits on unidentified traffic, the Wikimedia Foundation will continue efforts to ensure
fair use of infrastructure
by applying global limits to identified API traffic beginning the last week of April. These limits are intentionally set as high as possible to minimise impact on the community. Bots running in Toolforge/WMCS or with the bot user right on any wiki should not be affected for now. However, all developers are advised to follow updated best practices. For more information, see
Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits
and
Frequently Asked Questions
The
Attribution API
is now available as a
beta
