Új grafikon megjelenítési bővítmény lesz aktiválva 2025 májustól!

(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.

(magyarul) Mint valószínűleg tudják, a régi Graph bővítményt biztonsági okokból 2023-ban letiltották. Az elmúlt két évben azon dolgoztunk, hogy olyan megoldást találjunk, amely lecserélheti a régi bővítményt, és biztonságosabb és jobb megoldást kínál azoknak a felhasználóknak, akik grafikonokat és diagramokat szeretnének megjeleníteni a cikkeikben. Ezért fejlesztettük ki a Charts bővítményt, amely a régi Graph bővítményt, és potenciálisan az EasyTimeline bővítményt is felváltja.

Miután sikeresen telepítettük a bővítményt az olasz, svéd és héber Wikipédián, valamint a MediaWiki.org-on egy kísérleti fázis részeként, most örömmel jelentjük be, hogy továbblépünk a telepítés következő fázisára, amely a wikit is magában foglalja. A telepítés csomagokban fog történni, és május 6-án kezdődik. Kérjük, tekintse meg a MediaWiki.org oldalunkat, hogy megtudja, mikor kerül telepítésre az új Charts bővítmény a wikin. A MediaWiki.org oldalon található dokumentációt is megtekintheti a bővítményről.

Ha kérdése van, tisztázásra van szüksége, vagy csak szeretné elmondani a véleményét, kérjük, tekintse meg a projekt vitalapját a Mediawiki.org oldalon, vagy pingeljen meg közvetlenül ebben a témában. Ha problémákba ütközik a Charts használata során, miután engedélyezték a wikin, kérjük, jelentse azt a vitalapon vagy a Phabricatoron.

Thank you in advance! -- User:Sannita (WMF) (talk) 2025. május 6., 17:08 (CEST)

Wikidata Item and Property labels soon displayed in Wiki Watchlist/Recent Changes

(Apologies for posting in English, you can help by translating into your language)

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. MediaWiki message delivery (vita) 2025. július 14., 14:46 (CEST)

(magyarul)

A Wikidata elem- és tulajdonságcímkéi hamarosan megjelennek a Wiki figyelőlistáján/legutóbbi változtatásai között.

Üdvözlök mindenkit! A Wikidata For Wikimedia Projects csapata örömmel jelenti be a Wikidata szerkesztési változásnaplóinak megjelenését a Figyelőlisták és a Legutóbbi változtatások listákban. Ha a Wikidatán olyan szerkesztést végeznek, amely egy másik Wikimedia Projekt oldalát érinti, a változásnapló információkat tartalmaz a szerkesztés jellegéről. Ez tartalmazhat egy QID-t (vagy Q-számot), egy PID-t (vagy P-számot) és egy értéket (ami lehet szöveg, szám, dátum, vagy akár QID vagy PID). Összezavarodtál ezekben a kifejezésekben? További magyarázatokért lásd a Wikidata:Szószedetet.

A változás 2025.07.17-én, UTC szerint 13:00 és 15:00 óra között jelenik meg. A változás a címkét (elem nevét) jeleníti meg a QID vagy PID mellett, ahogy az az fentebbi képen is látható:

Ezek a változtatások csak akkor lesznek láthatók, ha engedélyezted a Wikidata szerkesztéseit a Felhasználói beállításokban a Figyelőlisták és a Legutóbbi változtatások beállításoknál, vagy be van kapcsolva az aktív szűrő „Wikidata szerkesztések” jelölőnégyzet közvetlenül a Figyelőlista és a Legutóbbi változtatások oldalakon.

A botodat és a kütyüt is érintheti a változás! Több ezer bot, kütyü és felhasználói szkript létezik, és bár kutattuk a lehetséges hatásokat közülük sokra, nem tudjuk garantálni, hogy nem lesznek olyanok, amelyek nem hibásak vagy nem lesznek érintve a változás által.

További információkat és kontextust erről a változásról, beleértve azt is, hogy hogyan érintheti a botodat, ezen a projektfeladat oldalon találsz. Szívesen fogadjuk kérdéseidet és visszajelzéseidet, kérjük, írj nekünk erre a dedikált vitalapra.

Szerver-átállás miatt a wikitek ideiglenesen csak olvasható lesz

Üzenet olvasása más nyelven • Segíts lefordítani a saját nyelvedre

A Wikimédia Alapítvány át fogja kapcsolni a forgalmat az adatközpontjai között. Ez biztosítja, hogy a Wikipédia és más Wikimédia-wikik elérhetők maradjanak még egy katasztrófa után is.

Az átállás 24 szeptember történik meg. Az átállás 15:00 UTC-kor (magyar idő szerint 17:00-kor) kezdődik.

A MediaWiki korlátai miatt az átállás idejére sajnos minden szerkesztést fel kell függeszteni. Elnézést kérünk a kellemetlenségért, és azon dolgozunk, hogy a jövőben minimalizáljuk azt.

Az átállás kezdete előtt fél órával egy figyelmeztető üzenetet jelenítünk meg az összes wikin, ami a művelet végéig látható marad. You can contribute to the translation or proofreading of this banner text.

Egy rövid ideig minden wiki csak olvasható lesz.

• szerda 24 szeptember 2025-n lesz egy legfeljebb egy órás időszak, ami alatt nem lehet majd szerkeszteni.
• Aki ezekben az időszakokban próbál menteni, hibaüzenetet fog látni. Reméljük, hogy nem fognak elveszni szerkesztések ebben a pár percben, de erre garanciát nem tudunk vállalni. Ha hibaüzenetet látsz, kérjük, várj, amíg minden visszaáll a rendes kerékvágásba. Ekkor már sikeresnek kell lennie a mentésnek. Azonban – biztos, ami biztos – ajánljuk a változtatásaid lemásolását előbb.

Egyéb hatások:

• A háttérfeladatok lassabbak lesznek, és néhány esetleg egyáltalán nem lesz végrehajtva. A piros belső hivatkozások frissítése lassabb lehet a szokásosnál. Ha olyan szócikket írsz meg, amire már van hivatkozás valahonnan, az a hivatkozás a szokásosnál tovább marad piros. Néhány hosszan futó programot le kell állítani.
• A szoftverfrissítések előreláthatólag ugyanúgy meg fognak történni, mint bármely más héten, bár egy-egy pontszerű befagyasztás előfordulhat, ha az üzemeltetés ezt kívánja.
• A GitLab körülbelül 90 percig elérhetetlen lesz.

Ez a projekt szükség esetén el lesz halasztva. A pontos menetrend a wikitech.wikimedia.org wikin olvasható. Az esetleges változások ott lesznek bejelentve.

Kérjük, oszd meg ezt az információt a közösségeddel.

Tech News: 2025-51

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Updates for editors

• View all 18 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, one of the fixes addressed an issue for temporary accounts adding an external URL, which triggered an hCaptcha request in more cases than intended, and did not display the required popup on the first attempt to publish the edit. [1]

Updates for technical contributors

• To improve database and site performance, external links to Wikimedia projects will no longer be stored in the database. This means they will not be searchable in Speciális:Hivatkozás keresés, will not be checked by the Spam Blacklist or AbuseFilter as new links, and will not be in the externallinks table on database replicas. In the future this may be extended to other highly-linked trusted websites on a per-wiki basis, such as Creative Commons links on Wikimedia Commons. [2]
• Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki

Tech News: 2025-52

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Updates for editors

• From January, edit filters can be set to automatically suppress their details such as rules and list of attempted edits and actions. This will help oversighters use edit filters to prevent doxxing or other suppressible material. [3]
• The next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 12 January 2026 because of the end of year holidays. Thank you to all of the translators, and people who submitted content or feedback, this year.
• View all 16 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, the crash that occurred when tapping "First Steps" in the Wikipedia Android Year in Review has now been fixed, and the feature opens as expected. [4]

Updates for technical contributors

• Interface elements such as diffs and categories generated by MediaWiki used to have the attribute data-mw="interface" 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. [5]
• There is no new MediaWiki version this week or next week.

Meetings and events

• The Wikimedia Hackathon Northwestern Europe 2026 will take place on 13-14 March 2026 in Arnhem, the Netherlands. Applications just opened mid-December and will close in mid-January or earlier if capacity is reached. With space for approximately 100 participants, early application is encouraged.

Weekly highlight

• 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 talk page.

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 Search will be updated too, as a part of the work on the Revamp pagination / page navigation wish. [6]
• 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. [7][8][9][10]
• View all 28 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, the issue where global blocks did not have the option to disable sending emails, has now been fixed, and will be available for use in the week of January 13. [11]

Updates for technical contributors

• The VisualEditor citation tool and Reference Previews now support "map" as a reference type. [12]
• Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki/MediaWiki

Tech News: 2026-04

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

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. [13]
• 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. [14][15][16][17]
• View all 32 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, the previously observed issue in Vector 2022, where anchor link targets were obscured by the sticky header, has now been addressed. [18]

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 #MW-Interfaces-Team board.
• Interactive reference documentation for the Wikimedia REST API has moved. Requests to API docs previously hosted through RESTBase (e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/) are now redirected to the REST Sandbox.
• The WMF Wikidata Platform team (WDP) has published its January 2026 newsletter. It includes updates on the legacy full-graph endpoint decommissioning, the User-Agent policy change, the monthly Blazegraph migration office hours, and efforts to reduce regressions caused by the legacy endpoint shutdown. As a reminder, you can subscribe to the WDP newsletter!
• Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki

Meetings and events

• The Wikimedia Hackathon Northwestern Europe 2026 will take place on 13-14 March 2026 in Arnhem, the Netherlands. Applications opened mid-December and will close soon or when capacity is reached. It's a two-day, technically oriented hackathon bringing together Wikimedians from the region. Hope to see you there!

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. [19]
• View all 20 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. [20]

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. [21]
• 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

• The "Lapinformációk" feature, which gives validating information about a page (example), now automatically includes a table of contents. If there is a local MediaWiki:Pageinfo-header page created by individual users, it can now be removed. [22]
• View all 21 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, VisualEditor previously added bold or italic formatting inside link descriptions, making the wikicode complex. This has now been fixed. [23]

Updates for technical contributors

• There was no XML dump on 20 January. Additionally, from now on, dumps will be generated once per month only. [24]
• The MediaWiki Interfaces team removed support for all transform endpoints containing a trailing slash from the MediaWiki REST API.

Tech News: 2026-07

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

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. Learn more. [25]
• 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. [26]
• 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. [27][28]
• 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. [29]
• Two new wikis have been created:
  • a Wikipédia in Jju (w:kaj:) [30]
  • a Wikipédia in Nawat (w:ppl:) [31]
• View all 23 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week.

Updates for technical contributors

• A new global user group has been created: Local bots. It will be used internally by the software to allow community bots to bypass rate limits that are applied to abusive web scrapers. Accounts that are approved as bots on at least one Wikimedia wiki will be automatically added to this group. It will not change what user permissions the bot has. [32]
• Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki

Meetings and events

• The MediaWiki Users and Developers Conference, Spring 2026 will be held March 25–27 in Salt Lake City, USA. This event is organized by and for the third-party MediaWiki community. You can propose sessions and register to attend. [33]
