- Did you know?
- Newest properties:
- General datatypes: height of center of mass, road number formatter, Vietnamese middle name, heraldic attitude, traffic sign template image
- External identifiers: Tree of Public Interest ID, Denkmaldatenbank Thurgau ID, DSSTOX compound identifier, South Africa EMIS code, Archive Site Trinity College Cambridge ID, WISAARD resource ID, Gateway to Research organisation ID, SÚKL code, Science Fiction Awards Database author ID, Power plant operating licence (Turkey)

- Newest properties:
- Development
- The last week was our quarterly prototyping week. We worked on the following projects. None of them are ready for prime-time yet but we'll continue with them.
- Slices: We've had a lot of requests for accessing dumps of a smaller part of Wikidata's data since rarely anyone needs the complete data in Wikidata. The tricky part is figuring out which part is needed and if any of that can be generalized. We looked into for example how to make dump generation faster so we could potentially produce more smaller dumps that only cover a part of Wikidata's data, either thematically (e.g. humans) or by type of data (e.g. only statements and English labels and aliases but not sitelinks or descriptions).
- REST API: As part of our effort to make it easier to access Wikidata's data for programmers we looked into a REST API. We tried to see if we could cover the existing action API modules in a REST API. We could. We'll take this as input for our ongoing API work now.
- Improving quality ratings through ORES: ORES can judge the quality of an Item automatically. It is currently not very good at it however. We tried a few things to make it more accurate and found some easy wins we'll probably make happen in the next weeks.
- Query manipulator: One of the ways we could potentially improve the load situation of the Wikidata Query Service is by automatically analyzing and then redirecting a bunch of queries to other systems that are more suitable for that particular type of query. The nice thing about that would be that the person/program sending the query wouldn't have to care about it but it'd be done automagically for them. We tried to build such a system and the results look very promising but more work/experimenting is needed, especially together with the WMF Search team.
- The last week was our quarterly prototyping week. We worked on the following projects. None of them are ready for prime-time yet but we'll continue with them.

Problemas
- Todas las consultas al servicio de consultas de Wikidata fallaron entre 17:50 y 17:59 UTC el jueves 23 julio. Algunas consultas fallaron durante un periodo más largo. [1]
- Los enlaces interlingüísticos fueron ordenados incorrectamente en las pasadas semanas. Esto fue mencionado en Tech News dos semanas atrás. El problema ha sido solucionado. [2]
- Hay un problema con las preferencias globales para la opción "Utilizar versión heredada de Vector". Los desarrolladores están trabajando en solucionarlo. [3]
- Un error en la extensión Wikibase había deshabilitado los tipos de protección "mover" y "crear" en el espacio principal de nombres (Galería) en Wikimedia Commons. No se pudieron agregar nuevas protecciones y no se aplicaron las protecciones existentes, lo que permitió algunos movimientos de página y creaciones de páginas que no deberían haber sido posibles. Esto ahora ha sido arreglado. [4]
Cambios de esta semana
- El reproductor de vídeo cambiará para ser más sencillo y más moderno. Esta semana, la característica de beta actual pasará a ser el reproductor de vídeo para todo el mundo en la mayoría de las wikis no-Wikipedia. El reproductor antiguo será eliminado. [5]
- Las páginas de usuarios
global.jsyglobal.cssahora también serán cargadas en el sitio móvil. Puedes leer documentación de cómo para evitar aplicar estilos a la piel móvil. [6] 
En la máscara MonoBook, el searchGoButtonidentificador es ahorasearchButton. Esto puede afectar los gadgets CSS y JS. Instrucciones de migración se pueden encontrar en T255953. Esto se mencionó antes en la edición 27.- Los operadores de Bot pueden utilizar Pywikibot para archivar regularmente discusiones. Se cambió el comportamiento del bot cuando usa
counterpara impedir archivos grandes. [7] 
La nueva versión de MediaWiki se instalará en los wikis de prueba y en MediaWiki.org el 4 agosto. Se instalará en las wikis que no son Wikipedia y en algunas Wikipedias a partir del 5 agosto, y en las restantes a partir del 6 agosto (calendario).

Hola, Sabbut. Se ha revisado la página «Erkoreka» y esta cumple con los criterios de borrado rápido, por eso se ha marcado con la plantilla {{Destruir}} para que sea borrada de inmediato por un bibliotecario. Los motivos son los siguientes:
- G10: Mantenimiento elemental, redirección o página de desambiguación inútil e innecesaria.
- Se pide suprimir por no cumplir la norma de desambiguación que dice que solo se añadirán a la misma aquellas personas que sean conocidas por el término de dicha desambiguación y en esta ningún artículo cumple la norma.
Por favor, revisa la política de borrado y solo si crees que el artículo en cuestión no se ajusta a lo descrito ahí, expón tus argumentos en esta página. Si creaste la página con la finalidad de hacer pruebas, por favor, utiliza nuestra zona de pruebas pública. Si eres un usuario registrado, también puedes usar tu taller de pruebas personal.
Gracias por tu comprensión. Aitorembe (discusión) 23:01 3 ago 2020 (UTC)

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- If you revert an edit using the undo link your edit is marked with an
undotag. This will now only happen if you don't change anything in the edit window before publishing the undo. This is to keep users from marking edits as undos when they actually do something else. [12] - The new OOUI version will not work with Internet Explorer 8. This means the wikis will look strange and not work well in Internet Explorer 8. This was reported in Tech/News/2020/17. This is because keeping the wikis working with very old browsers creates other problems. [13]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 18 August. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 19 August. It will be on all wikis from 20 August (calendar).
Future changes
- All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on September 1. This is planned between 13:30 and 15:30 UTC. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis next week. This is a reminder. You can help by translating the announcement message. [14][15]
