Tech News: 2024-06

Recent changes

• The mobile site history pages now use the same HTML as the desktop history pages. If you hear of any problems relating to mobile history usage please point them to the phabricator task.
• On most wikis, admins can now block users from making specific actions. These actions are: uploading files, creating new pages, moving (renaming) pages, and sending thanks. The goal of this feature is to allow admins to apply blocks that are adequate to the blocked users' activity. Learn more about "action blocks". [1][2]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 6 February. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 7 February. It will be on all wikis from 8 February (calendar). [3][4]
• Talk pages permalinks that included diacritics and non-Latin script were malfunctioning. This issue is fixed. [5]

Future changes

• 24 Wikipedias with Reference Tooltips as a default gadget are encouraged to remove that default flag. This would make Reference Previews the new default for reference popups, leading to a more consistent experience across wikis. For 46 Wikipedias with less than 4 interface admins, the change is already scheduled for mid-February, unless there are concerns. The older Reference Tooltips gadget will still remain usable and will override this feature, if it is available on your wiki and you have enabled it in your settings. [6][7]

Attributed to logic

Hi Jarek, I noticed on File:Crucifixión, atribuida a Ambrosius Benson (Museo Arqueológico Provincial de Ourense).jpg when trying to use the QuickStatements link, it still uses the old way with the (now deleted) P1773 (P1773) qualifier. Maybe you can change it to the new system? See d:Wikidata:WikiProject_Visual_arts/Item_structure#Use_of_creator_(P170)_in_uncertain_cases. Thank you, Multichill (talk) 16:03, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

@Multichill: Fixed I missed retiring of P1773. I did noticed 2 competing standards and could read both. Now I am only using the new standard. --Jarekt (talk) 22:42, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

Edycje mapek, szkiców walk itp

Pytanie amatora:) Czy mapki (szkice) walk, bitew, potyczek publikowane w polskich publikacjach w latach 1946 - do np 1990 podlegają ochronie autorskiej? Oczywiscie pisze o takich publikacjach, w których nikt nawet nie zająknał się o autorze tychże szkiców. Należałoby uznac że robione były w godzinach pracy przez zespoły historyków pracujących w państwowych instytutach (np im. wandy wasilewskiej), a wydane przez wydawnictwo MON. Pytanie zmierza do tego czy mogę je wstawiać i ewentualnie pod jaką licencją keriM (talk) 22:34, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

@Kerim44: Nie znam żadnej licencji która pozwoliła by panu użyć map i szkiców bitew wydawanych w polskich publikacjach w latach 1946 - 1990. Dla szkiców opublikowanych więcej niż 70 lat temu można użyć {{PD-70-anon-EU}}. Prace historyków pracujących w państwowych instytutach USA można użyć na podstawie licencji {{PD-USgov}}, ale w Polsce brak podobnego prawa. Fotografie bitw wydane w polskich publikacjach w latach 1946 - 1990 można użyć na podstawie {{PD-Poland}}, ale ta licencja jedynie dotyczy fotografii a nie map i szkiców. Dlatego większość dobrej jakości map i szkiców jest tworzona przez wikipedystów na podstawie opublikowanych map. --Jarekt (talk) 03:29, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Dziękuję za wyjaśnienia. Rozumiem, że dozwolony byłby rok 1954 i wcześniej (są szkice Kirchmayera z 1946 ale dość hm słabe). Całkiem przyzwoite zaczynają się od 1958 (mówię o kampanii wrześniowej). Ostatnie Twoje zdanie - hm... ale ciągle za mało, a ja tego nie potrafię (pisze o polskim podwórku). Jeszcze raz dziękuję--keriM (talk) 09:45, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Technical question

Hi Jarekt, could I ask you a technical question? I wanted to make a small layout change to {{Global maintenance category}}, but it doesn't work. But strangely this edit some times before was working. Have you an idea why? Is this a cache problem and I need just to wait or has it to to with /i18n? Thx a lot already and best Regards --W like wiki ^{good to know} 20:41, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

W like wiki, your small layout change is just to make administration or maintenance of Wikimedia Commons bold, and as far as I can tell it is working. The text looks bold to me. --Jarekt (talk) 22:50, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Oh thx Jarek for your fast answer! Yes, it is just to make the link bold, but I see it only on the /i18n subpage bold, not in the parent page, do you   I tried also on an mobile device just to be sure that it has nothing to do with my cache, but still "unbold", hmm.. --W like wiki ^{good to know} 23:03, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

W like wiki, the main page does not see Template:Global maintenance category/i18n subpage but Template:Global maintenance category/i18n/en instead, so your change need to propagate there somehow. That might be a question for com:TAs. Translation extension works in a bit misterious way and I often do not understand it. --Jarekt (talk) 23:17, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Oookay, I see! Thank you for the link to com:TA, i will ask there! A flower for you! --W like wiki ^{good to know} 23:23, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Gadgets are not impacted. If you have been affected or want to minimize the impact on your project, see this ticket. Please coordinate and take action proactively.
