Recent changes

  • Web browsers can use tools called extensions. There is now a Chrome extension called Citation Needed which you can use to see if an online statement is supported by a Wikipedia article. This is a small experiment to see if Wikipedia can be used this way. Because it is a small experiment, it can only be used in Chrome in English.
  • A new Edit Recovery feature has been added to all wikis, available as a user preference. Once you enable it, your in-progress edits will be stored in your web browser, and if you accidentally close an editing window or your browser or computer crashes, you will be prompted to recover the unpublished text. Please leave any feedback on the project talk page. This was the #8 wish in the 2023 Community Wishlist Survey.
  • Initial results of Edit check experiments have been published. Edit Check is now deployed as a default feature at the wikis that tested it. Let us know if you want your wiki to be part of the next deployment of Edit check. [4][5]
  • Readers using the Minerva skin on mobile will notice there has been an improvement in the line height across all typography settings. [6]

Changes later this week

  • The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 April. It will be on all wikis from 11 April (calendar). [7][8]
  • New accounts and logged-out users will get the visual editor as their default editor on mobile. This deployment is made at all wikis except for the English Wikipedia. [9]

To remove the shortcomings of Adel Rahman's draft.

Hello Sir, 

         It's been a while since I created a draft of Adel Rahman. This draft has not been reviewed for a very long time.Adel Rahman's draft has been pending for a very long time.Sir please try to solve the problems of this draft.Please help me in correcting the mistakes in Adel Rehman's draft.

It will be your great kindness. Rathorenareshrathore (talk) 05:22, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

The draft doesn't show why that player is notable enough. An article about them a few days before you created this draft, and I don't see an increased notability to pass WP:GNG right now. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:17, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
Sir, I request you that please help me make Adel Rahman's draft passable under WP:CNG. Rathorenareshrathore (talk) 10:23, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
Sir, I request you that please help me make Adel Rahman's draft passable under WP:CNG. Rathorenareshrathore (talk) 10:04, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
I don't see enough coverage to prove that he is notable. Which is why an article on him has been deleted twice already: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Adel Rahman and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Adel Rahman (2nd nomination). No amount of you asking me to "make him notable" is going to fix that. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:19, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Request to delete draft.

If Adel Rehman's draft is not notable then please remove this draft as soon as possible. It will be your great kindness. Rathorenareshrathore (talk) 10:31, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Problems

  • Between 2 April and 8 April, on wikis using Flagged Revisions, the "Reverted" tag was not applied to undone edits. In addition, page moves, protections and imports were not autoreviewed. This problem is now fixed. [10][11]

Changes later this week

  • The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 16 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 17 April. It will be on all wikis from 18 April (calendar). [12][13]
  • Default category sort keys will now affect categories added by templates placed in footnotes. Previously footnotes used the page title as the default sort key even if a different default sort key was specified (category-specific sort keys already worked). [14]
  • A new variable page_last_edit_age will be added to abuse filters. It tells how many seconds ago the last edit to a page was made. [15]

Future changes

  • Volunteer developers are kindly asked to update the code of their tools and features to handle temporary accounts. Learn more.
  • Four database fields will be removed from database replicas (including Quarry). This affects only the abuse_filter and abuse_filter_history tables. Some queries might need to be updated. [16]

  • The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 23 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 24 April. It will be on all wikis from 25 April (calendar). [18][19]

Future changes

  • This is the last warning that by the end of May 2024 the Vector 2022 skin will no longer share site and user scripts/styles with old Vector. For user-scripts that you want to keep using on Vector 2022, copy the contents of Special:MyPage/vector.js to Special:MyPage/vector-2022.js. There are more technical details available. Interface administrators who foresee this leading to lots of technical support questions may wish to send a mass message to your community, as was done on French Wikipedia. [20]
