A vision of relevant, accessible, and impactful free knowledge has always guided the Wikimedia Movement. As the ecosystem of Wikimedia projects continues to evolve, it is crucial that we periodically review existing projects to ensure they still align with our goals and community capacity. Despite their noble intent, some projects may no longer effectively serve their original purpose. '''Reviewing such projects is not about giving up – it's about responsible stewardship of shared resources'''. Volunteer time, staff support, infrastructure, and community attention are finite, and the non-technical costs tend to grow significantly as our ecosystem has entered a different age of the internet than the one we were founded in. Supporting inactive projects or projects that didn't meet our ambitions can unintentionally divert these resources from areas with more potential impact. Moreover, maintaining projects that no longer reflect the quality and reliability of the Wikimedia name stands for, involves a reputational risk. An abandoned or less reliable project affects trust in the Wikimedia movement. Lastly, '''failing to sunset or reimagine projects that are no longer working can make it much harder to start new ones'''. When the community feels bound to every past decision – no matter how outdated – we risk stagnation. A healthy ecosystem must allow for evolution, adaptation, and, when necessary, letting go. If we create the expectation that every project must exist indefinitely, we limit our ability to experiment and innovate. Because of this, SPTF reviewed two requests concerning the lifecycle of the Sister Projects to work through and demonstrate the review process. We chose Wikispore as a case study for a possible new Sister Project opening and Wikinews as a case study for a review of an existing project. Preliminary findings were discussed with the CAC, and a community consultation on both proposals was recommended. === Wikispore === The [[m:Wikispore|application to consider Wikispore]] was submitted in 2019. SPTF decided to review this request in more depth because rather than being concentrated on a specific topic, as most of the proposals for the new Sister Projects are, Wikispore has the potential to nurture multiple start-up Sister Projects. After careful consideration, the SPTF has decided '''not to recommend''' Wikispore as a Wikimedia Sister Project. Considering the current activity level, the current arrangement allows '''better flexibility''' and experimentation while WMF provides core infrastructural support. We acknowledge the initiative's potential and seek community input on what would constitute a sufficient level of activity and engagement to reconsider its status in the future. As part of the process, we shared the decision with the Wikispore community and invited one of its leaders, Pharos, to an SPTF meeting. Currently, we especially invite feedback on measurable criteria indicating the project's readiness, such as contributor numbers, content volume, and sustained community support. This would clarify the criteria sufficient for opening a new Sister Project, including possible future Wikispore re-application. However, the numbers will always be a guide because any number can be gamed. === Wikinews === We chose to review Wikinews among existing Sister Projects because it is the one for which we have observed the highest level of concern in multiple ways. Since the SPTF was convened in 2023, its members have asked for the community's opinions during conferences and community calls about Sister Projects that did not fulfil their promise in the Wikimedia movement.[https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:WCNA_2024._Sister_Projects_-_opening%3F_closing%3F_merging%3F_splitting%3F.pdf <nowiki>[1]</nowiki>][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Community_Affairs_Committee/Sister_Projects_Task_Force#Wikimania_2023_session_%22Sister_Projects:_past,_present_and_the_glorious_future%22 <nowiki>[2]</nowiki>][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConvention_francophone/2024/Programme/Quelle_proc%C3%A9dure_pour_ouvrir_ou_fermer_un_projet_%3F <nowiki>[3]</nowiki>] Wikinews was the leading candidate for an evaluation because people from multiple language communities proposed it. Additionally, by most measures, it is the least active Sister Project, with the greatest drop in activity over the years. While the Language Committee routinely opens and closes language versions of the Sister Projects in small languages, there has never been a valid proposal to close Wikipedia in major languages or any project in English. This is not true for Wikinews, where there was a proposal to close English Wikinews, which gained some traction but did not result in any action[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposals_for_closing_projects/Closure_of_English_Wikinews <nowiki>[4]</nowiki>][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConvention_francophone/2024/Programme/Quelle_proc%C3%A9dure_pour_ouvrir_ou_fermer_un_projet_%3F <nowiki>[5]</nowiki>, see section 5] as well as a draft proposal to close all languages of Wikinews[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Proposals_for_closing_projects/Archive_2#Close_Wikinews_completely,_all_languages? <nowiki>[6]</nowiki>]. [[:c:File:Sister Projects Taskforce Wikinews review 2024.pdf|Initial metrics]] compiled by WMF staff also support the community's concerns about Wikinews. Based on this report, SPTF recommends a community reevaluation of Wikinews. We conclude that its current structure and activity levels are the lowest among the existing sister projects. SPTF also recommends pausing the opening of new language editions while the consultation runs. SPTF brings this analysis to a discussion and welcomes discussions of alternative outcomes, including potential restructuring efforts or integration with other Wikimedia initiatives. '''Options''' mentioned so far (which might be applied to just low-activity languages or all languages) include but are not limited to: *Restructure how Wikinews works and is linked to other current events efforts on the projects, *Merge the content of Wikinews into the relevant language Wikipedias, possibly in a new namespace, *Merge content into compatibly licensed external projects, *Archive Wikinews projects. Your insights and perspectives are invaluable in shaping the future of these projects. We encourage all interested community members to share their thoughts on the relevant discussion pages or through other designated feedback channels. === Feedback and next steps === We'd be grateful if you want to take part in a conversation on the future of these projects and the review process. We are setting up two different project pages: [[m:Public consultation about Wikispore|Public consultation about Wikispore]] and [[m:Public consultation about Wikinews|Public consultation about Wikinews]]. Please participate between 27 June 2025 and 27 July 2025, after which we will summarize the discussion to move forward. You can write in your own language. I will also host a community conversation 16th July Wednesday 11.00 UTC and 17th July Thursday 17.00 UTC (call links to follow shortly) and will be around at Wikimania for more discussions. <section end="message"/> </div> -- [[User:Victoria|Victoria]] on behalf of the Sister Project Task Force, 20:56, 27 Hunyo 2025 (UTC) <!-- Message sent by User:Johan (WMF)@metawiki using the list at https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Johan_(WMF)/Sister_project_MassMassage_on_behalf_of_Victoria/Target_list&oldid=28911188 --> == <span lang="en" dir="ltr">Tech News: 2025-27</span> == <div lang="en" dir="ltr"> <section begin="technews-2025-W27"/><div class="plainlinks"> Latest '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|tech news]]''' from the Wikimedia technical community.

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 [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:Glossary|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: [[File:Apr10 edit summary on Wikidata.png|An edit sum entry on Wikidata, labels display alongside their P- and Q-no.'s]] 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!

This allows administrators to easily block temporary accounts for 90 days, which is functionally equivalent to an indefinite block.

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 [[commons:File:Translatable modules video demo July 2025.webm|watch the demo video]], read more about [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Translatable modules|translatable modules]] to understand how it works, refer to Meta-Wiki's [[m:Module:User Wikimedia project|Module:User Wikimedia project]] for example usage, and [[mw:Talk:Translatable modules|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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T359918] * Developers of external tools that connect to Wikimedia pages must set a user-agent that complies with [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Wikimedia Foundation User-Agent Policy|the user-agent policy]].

We would like to announce that '''we plan to enable [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] for this wiki in the week of September 1'''. Temporary accounts are successfully live on 30 wikis, including many large ones like German, Japanese, and French. The change they bring is especially relevant to logged-out editors, who this feature is designed to protect. But it is also relevant to community members like mentors, patrollers, and admins – anyone who reverts edits, blocks users, or otherwise interacts with logged-out editors as part of keeping the wikis safe and accurate. '''Why we are building temporary accounts''' Our wikis should be safer to edit by default for logged-out editors. Temporary accounts allow people to continue editing the wikis without creating an account, while avoiding publicly tying their edits to their IP address. We believe this is in the best interest of our logged-out editors, who make valuable contributions to the wikis and who may later create accounts and grow our community of editors, admins, and other roles. Even though the wikis do warn logged-out editors that their IP address will be associated with their edit, many people may not understand what an IP address is, or that it could be used to connect them to other information about them in ways they might not expect. Additionally, our moderation software and tools rely too heavily on network origin (IP addresses) to identify users and patterns of activity, especially as IP addresses themselves are becoming less stable as identifiers. Temporary accounts allow for more precise interactions with logged-out editors, including more precise blocks, and can help limit how often we unintentionally end up blocking good-faith users who use the same IP addresses as bad-faith users. '''How temporary accounts work''' [[File:Temporary account banner and empty talk page.png|thumb]] Any time a logged-out user publishes an edit on this wiki, a cookie will be set in this user's browser, and a temporary account tied with this cookie will be automatically created. This account's name will follow the pattern: <code dir=ltr>~2025-12345-67</code> (a tilde, current year, a number). On pages like Recent Changes or page history, this name will be displayed. The cookie will expire 90 days after its creation. As long as it exists, all edits made from this device will be attributed to this temporary account. It will be the same account even if the IP address changes, unless the user clears their cookies or uses a different device or web browser. A record of the IP address used at the time of each edit will be stored for 90 days after the edit. However, only some logged-in users will be able to see it. '''What does this mean for different groups of users?''' '''For logged-out editors''' * This increases privacy: currently, if you do not use a registered account to edit, then everybody can see the IP address for the edits you made, even after 90 days. That will no longer be possible on this wiki. * If you use a temporary account to edit from different locations in the last 90 days (for example at home and at a coffee shop), the edit history and the IP addresses for all those locations will now be recorded together, for the same temporary account. Users who [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Access_to_temporary_account_IP_addresses|meet the relevant requirements]] will be able to view this data. If this creates any personal security concerns for you, please contact talktohumanrights at wikimedia.org for advice. '''For community members interacting with logged-out editors''' * A temporary account is uniquely linked to a device. In comparison, an IP address can be shared with different devices and people (for example, different people at school or at work might have the same IP address). * Compared to the current situation, it will be safer to assume that a temporary user's talk page belongs to only one person, and messages left there will be read by them. As you can see in the screenshot, temporary account users will receive notifications. It will also be possible to thank them for their edits, ping them in discussions, and invite them to get more involved in the community. '''For users who use IP address data to moderate and maintain the wiki''' * '''For patrollers''' who track persistent abusers, investigate violations of policies, etc.: Users who [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Access_to_temporary_account_IP_addresses|meet the requirements]] will be able to reveal temporary users' IP addresses and all contributions made by temporary accounts from a specific IP address or range ([[Special:IPContributions]]). They will also have access to useful information about the IP addresses thanks to the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/IP Info|IP Info]] feature. Many other pieces of software have been built or adjusted to work with temporary accounts, including AbuseFilter, global blocks, Global User Contributions, and more. (For information for volunteer developers on how to update the code of your tools – see the last part of the message.) * '''For admins blocking logged-out editors''': ** It will be possible to block many abusers by just blocking their temporary accounts. A blocked person won't be able to create new temporary accounts quickly if the admin selects the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Autoblock|autoblock]] option. ** It will still be possible to block an IP address or IP range. * Temporary accounts will not be retroactively applied to contributions made before the deployment. On Special:Contributions, you will be able to see existing IP user contributions, but not new contributions made by temporary accounts on that IP address. Instead, you should use Special:IPContributions for this. '''Our requests for you, and next steps''' * If you know of any tools, bots, gadgets etc. using data about IP addresses or being available for logged-out users, you may want to test if they work on [[testwiki:Main_Page|testwiki]] or [[test2wiki:Main_Page|test2wiki]]. If you are a volunteer developer, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/For developers|read our documentation for developers]], and in particular, the section on [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/For developers#How should I update my code?|how your code might need to be updated]]. * If you want to test the temporary account experience, for example just to check what it feels like, go to testwiki or test2wiki and edit without logging in. * Tell us if you know of any difficulties that need to be addressed. We will try to help, and if we are not able, we will consider the available options. * Look at our [[m:Meta:Babel#Temporary_Accounts:_access_to_IP_addresses_and_next_steps|previous message]] about requirements for users without extended rights who may need access to IP addresses. To learn more about the project, check out [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/FAQ|our FAQ]] – you will find many useful answers there.

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: [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event Center/Registration|Event Registration]], [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Collaboration list|Collaboration List]], and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Connection Team/Invitation list|Invitation List]]. To request the extension for your wiki, visit the Deployment information page.

This enhancement minimizes scrolling when editing lengthy articles on Wikipedia. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401066] * On September 3rd, 2025 we will increase the sampling percentages of our [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Moderator Tools/Watchlist/Experiment#Scope of the experiment|group by toggle experiment]] of the <code>Special:RecentChanges</code>, <code>Special:Watchlist</code>, and <code>Special:RelatedChanges</code> 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.

'''Updates for editors''' * Editors of [[f:Special:Mylanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2025-09-12#Next round of Wiktionaries to receive embedded Wikifunctions calls|60 more Wiktionaries]] will soon be able to call [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Introduction|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 [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2025-08-29#Wikifunctions available on 65 Wiktionaries|65 Wiktionary language editions]], which already have access to embedded Wikifunctions calls.

Template editors and admins can use it to get the localized or canonical name of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:ChangeContentModel|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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T328254] * Adding or editing a <code>DISPLAYTITLE</code> for an article using VisualEditor will no longer be broken.

The goal with the trial is to better block bots while also improving usability and accessibility for users who encounter CAPTCHA challenges. * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents]] extension has been [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Deployment status|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.

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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit_check/Tone_Check/Model_evaluation|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 [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Manage blocks|multiblocks]] had the side effect that non-active block logs may have been shown on {{#special:Contributions}} and on blocked users' user and user_talk pages.

[[:en:Special:MyLanguage/Light-on-dark color scheme|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 [[:en:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia:Dark mode#Options for anyone|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.

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.

This change improves performance. This week it will be enabled on Wikipedias. The existing mobile URLs and the "Desktop view" opt-out remain available.

This allows users to filter search results by a page's first or last revision date. The filters support comparison operators (e.g. <code dir=ltr>>2024</code>) and relative dates (e.g. <code dir=ltr>today-1d</code>), making it easier to find recently updated content or pages within specific age ranges. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T403593] * [[f:|Wikifunctions]] now supports rich text in embedded calls across the 150 wikis where it's enabled. To showcase this, the team created a [[f:Z26333|Latin declination table]] that Wiktionary editors can use to automatically generate noun forms, producing clear, formatted results — see an [[f:Wikifunctions:Embedded function calls/Wiktionary tables demonstration|example output]].

These changes include user interface improvements for [https://auth.wikimedia.org/metawiki/wiki/Special:AccountSecurity 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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security|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 [https://auth.wikimedia.org/metawiki/wiki/Special:AccountSecurity Special:AccountSecurity]. Instructions for activation are on the linked page.

We are targeting an A/B test before the end of this year, with constructive edits by newcomers as the primary success metric. ==== Add a link to more wikis ==== The machine learning team has been working on a new model that can suggest links to more languages, including Urdu, Chinese, and Japanese Wikipedias.

This is available to all registered users of all Wikimedia projects. This is part of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Tools/Add a link|Add a link]] feature, which allows editors to add suggested links during editing, will be available to an additional [[Phab:T410469|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 [[mw:user:Trizek (WMF)|Trizek (WMF)]]. * Last week, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Search Platform|Search Platform team]] added [[w:en:Transliteration|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 [[phab:T127003|are now rewritten into Georgian script]] to look for more matches. For example, searching for either <bdi lang="ka-Latn" dir="ltr">''bedniereba''</bdi> or <bdi lang="ka-Cyrl" dir="ltr">''бедниереба''</bdi> will now suggest the existing article about <bdi lang="ka" dir="ltr">ბედნიერება</bdi> ("happiness"). You can recommend other languages where transliterated suggestions would be useful [[phab:T375215|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 [[phab:T409112|more details]] about the project. * Later this week, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth|Reader Growth team]] will launch a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/WE3.1.14 Expanded Mobile Sections|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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T409485] * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Wikipedia Year in Review/2025 Year in Review|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.

I am glad to inform you that as the next step in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification|Parser Unification]] project, Parsoid will soon be turned on as the default article renderer on your wiki. We are gradually increasing the number of wikis using Parsoid, with the intention of making it the default wikitext parser for MediaWiki's next long-term support release. This will make our wikis more reliable and consistent for editors, readers, and tools to use, as well as making the development of future wikitext features easier. If this disrupts your workflow, don’t worry! You can still opt out through a user preference or turn Parsoid off on the current page using the Tools submenu, as described in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:ParserMigration|Extension:ParserMigration]] documentation. There is [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification/Confidence Framework|more information about our roll-out strategy]] available, including the testing done before we turn on Parsoid for a new wiki.

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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security|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.

'''Updates for editors''' * [[File:Maki-gift-15.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] 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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Watchlist labels|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|Special:Contributions]] shows [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|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.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415674] * 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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] continues to improve — it now properly supports more than one Wikibase site, for example both [[d:|Wikidata]] and [[testwikidata:|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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415440][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415458] * The automatic "magic links" for ISBN, RFC, and PMID numbers have been [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic links|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.

According to this policy, the [[:m:stewards|stewards]] are reviewing administrators' activity on all Wikimedia Foundation wikis with no inactivity policy. To the best of our knowledge, your wiki does not have a formal process for removing "advanced rights" from inactive accounts.

The WMF Language and Product Localization team is planning to launch a campaign project to encourage more native speakers to contribute to your Wikipedia. '''Our approach''' We will invite native speakers through Cebuano Wikipedia homepage to join a 3-week onboarding program in an [[metawiki:Event_Center/Registration#Event_Registration_Tool|Event registration page]]. This program will: * Guide them step-by-step through an onboarding material on how to edit and use contribution tools to expand articles. * Surface vital articles that the community has prioritized for improvement and editing tasks can be worked on to improve those articles. Through this guided onboarding program we will see if this approach will increase contributions from new editors or less experienced editors in your Wikipedia. You can read more about the project here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Engage_native_speakers_to_improve_vital_content_in_small_language_Wikipedias#Hypothesis_WE2.1.5. '''Tasks you can volunteer to help us with''' To make this project successful, we need your community’s help with these key tasks: * Translate the onboarding materials on this page: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:SSethi_(WMF)/Sandbox/Event:_Vital_Knowledge_Drive_2026#Overview into Cebuano. * Set up a call-to-action message on your [[Unang Panid|homepage]] using the translations. Admins are needed for this step. Instructions for the setup are on [[metawiki:User:SSethi_(WMF)/Sandbox/Event:_Vital_Knowledge_Drive_2026#For_event_organizers:_adding_vital_knowledge_section_to_wiki_home_page|this page]]. @[[Gumagamit:Lsj|Lsj]] and @[[Gumagamit:Sunny Cryolite|Sunny Cryolite]], please can you help with this task? * Create an Event Registration Page on Cebuano Wikipedia, and insert the translated materials in it. Here is a sample of the event registration page: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:SSethi_(WMF)/Sandbox/Event:_Vital_Knowledge_Drive_2026#Event:_Vital_Knowledge_Drive_2026 * Identify local Wikipedia articles or lists of articles needing improvement or missing in your Wikipedia. You might find inspiration in the "[[metawiki:List_of_articles_every_Wikipedia_should_have|List of articles every Wikipedia should have]]". These articles are to be added into the Event page you will create. Our team will help generate links to contribution tools for the selected articles. '''Timeline and Next Steps''' Please, help us complete these tasks by '''March 20, 2026'''. We plan to launch the program on March 23, 2026. We understand this is a big effort and truly appreciate any help you all can provide. Your support can help grow your community and make Cebuano Wikipedia stronger.

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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413912] * 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.

This is going to be changed to only store Notifications from the last 5 years, but up to 10,000 of them.

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 [[phab:T418580|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.

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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|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.

This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, [[wikitech:Deployments/Yearly calendar|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.

'''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 [[Special:MyLanguage/Apple iCloud Private Relay|iCloud Private Relay]]) will receive clearer guidance on what they need to do to start editing again. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T357118] * Later this week, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Suggestion Mode|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion mode#For administrators %E2%80%93 local customization|instructions for how administrators can customize]] the links to point to local guidelines. The feature is connected to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check|Edit check]] which suggests improvements while someone is writing new content.

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 [[:m:Community Wishlist Survey|Community Wishlist Surveys]], e.g. [[:m:Community Wishlist Survey 2017/Editing/VisualEditor: Allow editing of auto-generated references before adding them|2017]], [[:m:Community Wishlist Survey 2019/Citations/VisualEditor: Allow references to be named|2019]], [[:m:Community Wishlist Survey 2022/Editing/VisualEditor should use human-like names for references|2022]] or [[:m:Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Editing/VisualEditor should use proper names for references|2023]]. We would like your input on the [[:m:WMDE Technical Wishes/References/VisualEditor automatic reference names#Proposed solutions|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 <code>":n"</code>, e.g. <code>":0"</code>, <code>":1"</code>...) to use the [[:mw:Help:Reference Previews#Exposed reference types|reference type]] instead (e.g. <code>"book_reference-1"</code>). * Providing a simple mechanism for communities to configure a different default name. * Generating automatic reference names based on the [[:en:domain name|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 === [[:m:WMDE Technical Wishes/References/VisualEditor automatic reference names|Visit our project page]] to read about our proposal in detail and share your thoughts [[:m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/References/VisualEditor automatic reference names#Request for comment|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.

'''Updates for editors''' * [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4 Reading lists|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/Mobile page previews|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.

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.

'''Updates for editors''' * There is a change in how new users are autoconfirmed that will improve anti-vandalism protection. Currently, users who have had an account for a few days and made a few edits are automatically added to the [[{{int:grouppage-autoconfirmed/{{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}}}|{{int:group-autoconfirmed}}]] group. This configuration tends to be exploited by some vandals, who create accounts and start to use them only after some time. To mitigate this, the configuration will be updated next week so that – for the purpose of becoming autoconfirmed – the account age will be counted from their first edit, instead of registration date. The numeric value of the age threshold will remain the same. This change will be deployed only to wikis which require at least one edit as part of the autoconfirmation conditions. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418484] * All Wikipedia users with new accounts and those who activated the "automatically enable most beta features" option in their preference can now use the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4 Reading lists|reading lists]] beta feature to save articles for later reading.

The Bikol WikiCon is an extraordinary regional gathering that brings together Bikolanos actively supporting and contributing to open educational resources (OERs) with the vibrant Wikimedia communities in the Philippines. Next year, Bikol Wikipedia will be turning 20 years old. Reaching 2 decades is a strong milestone therefore it is also the right moment to ask harder questions about sustainability, quality and direction. The conference will serve as a venue for the participants to exchange and share their experiences, new ideas, and collaboration results, and to discuss the challenges encountered and the solutions adopted. We can’t wait to see you at the event! The conference will cover topics pertaining to Digital Resources, Heritage Advocacy, Cultural Preservation, and Partnerships with various institutional, social, and cultural contexts. You may submit any of the following types of session proposals: * '''Lightning talk:''' One presenter gives a talk with no follow-up by the audience. The total time for a lightning talk will be 10-15 minutes. * '''Lecture:''' One or two presenters offer(s) a presentation followed by questions and comments from the audience. The total time for a lecture (including questions and comments) will be 30-45 minutes. * '''Roundtable:''' A group of 10-15 people discusses a particular topic. The total time for a roundtable discussion will be 60 minutes. * '''Workshop:''' One or two moderators present(s) a topic by actively interacting with the audience. The total time for a workshop will be 60-120 minutes. * '''Meetup:''' A group of people with common interests informally meets to discuss different topics. The total time for a meetup is not pre-determined and depends on the proposer’s preferences. Submissions will be evaluated by the Program Committee based on: * Potential impact and expected outcomes * Relevance to the conference theme or focus areas Sessions may be recorded and made publicly available. If you prefer not to be filmed, you may indicate this during submission.

'''Updates for editors''' * The [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council|Product and Technology Advisory Council]] has published [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Product and Technology Advisory Council/May 2026 draft PTAC recommendation for feedback|draft recommendations]] on a model that affiliates can follow when contributing to the technical space. Community members are invited to provide feedback on the recommendation until May 8th [[:m:Talk:Product and Technology Advisory Council/May 2026 draft PTAC recommendation for feedback|on the talk page]]. * The number of available thumbnail size preferences in MediaWiki is being reduced to three standardized options—Small (180px), Regular (250px), and Large (400px), as part of ongoing efforts to improve performance and reduce strain on thumbnail services. As a result, existing preferences will be mapped to the nearest new size (for example, smaller selections like 120px or 150px will render at 180px, while larger ones like 300px or 360px will render at 400px). The preferences interface will soon be updated to reflect these changes, and users who wish to opt out or provide feedback can do so. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T424909] * From now on, even when a permission expires automatically, users will receive an Echo notification similar to the standard notification for permission changes. There is a difference between this and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Global reminder bot|Global reminder bot]] in that the latter reminds users a week ''before'' the rights are due to expire, so that they can renew the rights. * [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:32}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:32|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, the problem where the ULS language selector in [[m:Special:Translate|Special:Translate]] would scroll vertically when it shouldn't, has been resolved. Previously, when users opened the "Translate to English" dropdown and typed certain inputs, the dialog would scroll vertically by a few pixels even when there was enough space to display all results.

'''Weekly highlight''' * Following a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#LOWM|successful account creation experiment]], an improved logged-out edit warning message will be deployed to all Wikimedia wikis in the first week of June. The change will only affect logged-out users on mobile web who open an editing session. The updated experience is designed to encourage account creation more clearly, while still allowing users to edit with temporary accounts. Results from the experiment showed a significant increase in account creation, with a 27% relative lift among users shown the updated message. As expected, as more people funnel into account creation, temporary accounts decreased by a relative 16%. The experiment did not show any significant changes in constructive edit rates or other monitored contributor metrics. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T424595] '''Updates for editors''' * For security reasons, members of certain user groups are [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Mandatory two-factor authentication for users with some extended rights|required to have two-factor authentication]] (2FA) enabled. Members of these groups will be unable to disable the 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 next few weeks, users without 2FA will be removed from these groups. Notably, this applies to bureaucrats. See the linked tasks for deployment schedules. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T423119][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T423120] * [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes|WMDE Technical Wishes]] will run an [[w:en:A/B testing|A/B test]] on [[:phab:T415904|10 wikis]], testing [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/References/Reference Previews|potential improvements for Reference Previews]]. The experiment will run for ~2 weeks at the end of May / beginning of June and will affect 10% of desktop readers on the participating wikis. * After two successful experiments, the Reader Growth team is rolling out an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/Image Browsing|Image Browsing]] beta feature for all Wikipedias on mobile on May 25. This means that anyone who has all beta features on by default will start to see this feature, and others can check the box to turn it on in their preferences. The beta feature will include a carousel of all an article's images at the top of the article, with controls for editors to [[mw:Readers/Reader_Growth/Image_Browsing#Phase_2.1_beta_feature|exclude images from the article's carousel or to exclude an article from the feature entirely]]. * [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:30}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:30|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].

Deployment will start on 8 June for most [[wikitech:Deployments/Train#Wednesday|Group 1 wikis]] and French Wikipedia, with additional Wikipedia language editions receiving the feature over the coming months. Communities are encouraged to prepare by checking for [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special%3ATranslate&group=ext-cite&language=en&action_source=search&filter=%21translated&optional=1&action=translate untranslated Cite extension messages] in their language and reviewing any use of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reference Tooltips|Reference Tooltips]], which may require [[:phab:T416304#11668731|updates]] to support the new functionality.

Communities may also wish to create the ''cite-tracking-category-ref-details'' [[Special:TrackingCategories|tracking category]] as a hidden category using <code><nowiki>__HIDDENCAT__</nowiki></code> (or a dedicated template), and connect it to the corresponding Wikidata item [[d:Q129764848]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T425662] * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/Mobile page previews#Experimentation|Page Previews experiment]] on mobile web has concluded. The team decided not to roll out the feature after the results showed no statistically significant impact on reader retention, as the primary success metric was retention improvement. Page Previews, which are already available on desktop and in the apps, display a thumbnail, lead paragraph, and link to the full article when readers tap a blue link. The experiment tested this experience on mobile web across six Wikipedias. * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Codex/Design/Icons|user interface icon library]] will be [[phab:T399175|updated later this week or next week]]. Most of the ~300 icons have been slightly refined and ~30 new icons have been added. These changes improve the icons to make them more consistent and comprehensible, and provide more visual balance when they are used in groups. * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Language Selector|Universal Language Selector]] (ULS) interface in MediaWiki, which helps users select content in other languages, has been updated. The new version improves speed and accessibility, and users of Wikimedia projects can now pin languages for quicker language switching. The deployment to Wikimedia sites will happen gradually in the coming weeks. You can test it now as a beta feature by selecting [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|beta features]] in your profile preferences and share your feedback on [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Language Selector/New ULS|the project page]]. * [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:21}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:21|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].

Developers can now pass a configuration object instead of a list of positional parameters when creating portlet links. The previous function signature remains supported for backwards compatibility. For example, instead of: <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>mw.util.addPortletLink('p-cactions', '#', 'Stub', 'ca-stubtag', 'Add a stub tag to this page');</nowiki></code></bdi> use <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>mw.util.addPortletLink('p-cactions', { href: '#', text: 'Stub', id: 'ca-stubtag', tooltip: 'Add a stub tag to this page' });</nowiki></code></bdi>.

Previously, using <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>-prefix:</nowiki></code></bdi> with negation could unintentionally broaden search results by adding the namespaces included in the search scope, leading to confusing behavior for users expecting a straightforward exclusion filter. With the update, <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>-prefix:</nowiki></code></bdi> will now strictly exclude matching page titles as intended and may display a warning if the relevant namespace has not been explicitly selected.

The themes can be picked from a dropdown menu in the full [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#CodeMirror preferences|CodeMirror preferences]] dialog. For wikitext, available themes are default, colorblind-friendly (previously the colorblind preference option on [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing]]) and no-highlighting. For code languages (i.e., CSS/JavaScript/JSON/Vue/Lua), there are several themes available. These same themes will eventually be available for wikitext, too.

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.

Over the next three weeks, MediaWiki will start displaying the mobile version to mobile devices directly on the standard domain, without this redirect.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T214998] * 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.

'''Weekly highlight''' * [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1758726000 On September 24th at 15:00 UTC], all Wikimedia sites users will experience a brief read-only period due to a scheduled [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|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 [http://listen.hatnote.com/ "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.

'''Updates for editors''' * Editors of [[f:Special:Mylanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2025-09-12#Next round of Wiktionaries to receive embedded Wikifunctions calls|60 more Wiktionaries]] will soon be able to call [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Introduction|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 [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2025-08-29#Wikifunctions available on 65 Wiktionaries|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic words#Technical metadata of another page|parser function]] has been added: <code><nowiki>{{#contentmodel}}</nowiki></code>. Template editors and admins can use it to get the localized or canonical name of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:ChangeContentModel|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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T328254] * Adding or editing a <code>DISPLAYTITLE</code> for an article using VisualEditor will no longer be broken. Editors who use VisualEditor mode to modify the <code><nowiki>{{DISPLAYTITLE}}</nowiki></code> would no longer have the literal text "DISPLAYTITLE" or its localized variant added to their articles.

'''Weekly highlight''' * A major software upgrade has been made to [[phab:|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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/phame/post/view/321/iterative_improvements_september_2025/] '''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 [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist/Updates|in the latest update]] or you can consult the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CommunityRequests|current documentation on MediaWiki]]. * As announced [[diffblog:2025/09/02/better-detecting-bots-and-replacing-our-captcha/|on Diff blog]], the production trial of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Anti-abuse signals/hCaptcha|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:ConfirmEdit#FancyCaptcha|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CampaignEvents|CampaignEvents]] extension has been [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CampaignEvents/Deployment status|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 [[c:Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Event organizers|event organizer right]]. * [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|Sub-referencing]], a new feature to re-use references with different details has been released to German Wikipedia. You can [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#test|test the feature]] on testwiki or [https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmcloud.org/wiki/Sub-referencing on betawiki] as well. Please share your thoughts on [[:m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#Templates used in sub-references|using templates in sub-references]] or [[:m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#Pilot wikis|volunteer to become a pilot wiki]]. * On wikis using the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Mentorship|Mentorship]] system, communities can now opt experienced editors out of Mentorship through [[{{#special: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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T403563] * The Editing Team and the Machine Learning Team are working on a new check for newcomers: [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Tone Check|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit_check/Tone_Check/Model_evaluation|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 [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Manage blocks|multiblocks]] had the side effect that non-active block logs may have been shown on {{#special:Contributions}} and on blocked users' user and user_talk pages. This issue will be fully resolved in a few days. As part of the fix, [{{fullurl:Special:Allmessages|prefix=sp-contributions-blocked-notice}} messages prefixed with <code>sp-contributions-blocked-notice</code>] will be removed and replaced with [{{fullurl:Special:Allmessages|prefix=blocked-notice-logextract}} those prefixed with <code>blocked-notice-logextract</code>] 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 <code dir=ltr><nowiki>[ ] |</nowiki></code> after the fragment identifier (<code><nowiki>#</nowiki></code>). They were not encoded properly creating an incorrect link. This has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T404823] * One new wiki has been created: a {{int:project-localized-name-group-wikiquote/en}} in [[d:Q9237|Malay]] ([[q:ms:|<code>q:ms:</code>]]) [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T404698] * [[File:Octicons-sync.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:21}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:21|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]].

'''Weekly highlight''' * [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check#paste|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, [[phab:T403680|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 <code>en.wikipedia.org</code>), instead of via a redirect to an "m" domain (like <code>en.m.wikipedia.org</code>). This change improves performance. This week it will be enabled on Wikipedias. The existing mobile URLs and the "Desktop view" opt-out remain available. [[mw:Requests for comment/Mobile domain sunsetting/2025 Announcement|Learn more]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T214998] * New [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:CirrusSearch#creationdate and lasteditdate|date filters]], <code dir=ltr>creationdate:</code> and <code dir=ltr>lasteditdate:</code>, 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. <code dir=ltr>>2024</code>) and relative dates (e.g. <code dir=ltr>today-1d</code>), making it easier to find recently updated content or pages within specific age ranges. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T403593] * [[f:|Wikifunctions]] now supports rich text in embedded calls across the 150 wikis where it's enabled. To showcase this, the team created a [[f:Z26333|Latin declination table]] that Wiktionary editors can use to automatically generate noun forms, producing clear, formatted results — see an [[f:Wikifunctions:Embedded function calls/Wiktionary tables demonstration|example output]]. If you need any help or have any feedback, please [[f:Wikifunctions:Project chat|contact the Wikifunctions Team]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T397402] * 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.

See [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/cloud@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/2D2M3SP4WHR6BXXKTZ2PBLZQYR3EGQVR/ the announcement] for more information. * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web|Reader Experience team]] will roll out [[w:en:Light-on-dark color scheme|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Accessibility for reading/Updates/2024-04|learn how to make pages ready for Dark mode]] and address any compatibility issues found in templates in their wiki before the enablement.

These changes include user interface improvements for [https://auth.wikimedia.org/metawiki/wiki/Special:AccountSecurity 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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Product Safety and Integrity/Account Security|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 [https://auth.wikimedia.org/metawiki/wiki/Special:AccountSecurity 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.

'''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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/iOS/Tabbed Browsing (Tabs)/New Tab Experience and Recommendations Experiment|read more on the project page]]. * Autoconfirmed users on [[git:operations/mediawiki-config/+/a2d2aaab9ace84280dd2f4c70a33bb69cd73850f/dblists/small.dblist|small]] and [[git:operations/mediawiki-config/+/a2d2aaab9ace84280dd2f4c70a33bb69cd73850f/dblists/medium.dblist|medium wikis]] with the CampaignEvents extension can now use [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event Center/Registration|Event Registration]] without the Event Organizer right.

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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T402285] '''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.

'''Updates for editors''' * Administrators will now find that [[{{#special:MergeHistory}}]] 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).

Previously, this would only happen if the DiscussionTools "{{int:Skin-action-addsection}}" or "{{int:Discussiontools-replybutton}}" widgets were used.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T405861] * 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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T395628] * Users with large watchlists have long faced timeouts when editing [[Special:EditWatchlist|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 [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist/W454 community wish] has been created to explore alternative ways to restore sort-by-expiry.

There are 30 wikis that also install an older "ShortUrl" extension. The old extension will soon be removed. This means <code>/s/</code> URLs will not be advertised under article titles via HTML <code dir=ltr>class="title-shortlink"</code>. The <code>/s/</code> URLs will keep working.

Add a link is based on a prediction model that suggests links to be added to articles. While this feature has already been available on most Wikipedias, the prediction model could not support certain languages.

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 there are only a few regular search suggestions, then queries in Latin or Cyrillic script [[phab:T127003|are now rewritten into Georgian script]] to look for more matches. For example, searching for either <bdi lang="ka-Latn" dir="ltr">''bedniereba''</bdi> or <bdi lang="ka-Cyrl" dir="ltr">''бедниереба''</bdi> will now suggest the existing article about <bdi lang="ka" dir="ltr">ბედნიერება</bdi> ("happiness"). You can recommend other languages where transliterated suggestions would be useful [[phab:T375215|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.

'''Updates for editors''' * [[File:Maki-gift-15.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] 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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Watchlist labels|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|Special:Contributions]] shows [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts|temporary accounts]] that are likely operated by the same person, and so makes patrolling less time-consuming.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415674] * 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.

The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:GlobalWatchlist|extension]] continues to improve — it now properly supports more than one Wikibase site, for example both [[d:|Wikidata]] and [[testwikidata:|testwikidata]].

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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia APIs/Rate limits|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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T415696] * The new Parsoid parser [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification/Updates|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 [[Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Enterprise#Access|requesting exceptional access]] to the high volume feed of the ''Wikimedia Enterprise'' APIs (at no cost for mission-aligned usecases), [[m:Talk:Wikimedia Enterprise#Exceptional access criteria|have now been published]]. This is to provide more thorough and clearer documentation for users. * [https://techblog.wikimedia.org/ Tech Blog], the blog dedicated to the Wikimedia technical community [https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2026/02/24/a-tech-blog-diff/ will be migrating] to [[diffblog:|Diff]], the community news and event blog.

This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, [[wikitech:Deployments/Yearly calendar|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 [[m:Steward's noticeboard#Statement on Meta about today's user script security incident|post on the Stewards' noticeboard]] ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation/Product and Technology/Product Safety and Integrity/March 2026 User Script Incident|translations]]). '''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 [[Special:MyLanguage/Apple iCloud Private Relay|iCloud Private Relay]]) will receive clearer guidance on what they need to do to start editing again. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T357118] * Later this week, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Suggestion Mode|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 [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion mode#For administrators %E2%80%93 local customization|instructions for how administrators can customize]] the links to point to local guidelines. The feature is connected to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Edit check|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.

It will be promoted out of beta by May 2026 in order to bring improvements and new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Features|features]] to all editors who use the standard syntax highlighter. If you have any questions or concerns about promoting the feature out of beta, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help talk:Extension:CodeMirror|please share]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T259059] * 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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T6055] * On wikis using [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Flagged Revisions|Flagged Revisions]], the number of pending changes shown on [[{{#Special:PendingChanges}}]] 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. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413016] * 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.

'''Updates for editors''' * There is a change in how new users are autoconfirmed that will improve anti-vandalism protection. Currently, users who have had an account for a few days and made a few edits are automatically added to the [[{{int:grouppage-autoconfirmed/{{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}}}|{{int:group-autoconfirmed}}]] group. This configuration tends to be exploited by some vandals, who create accounts and start to use them only after some time. To mitigate this, the configuration will be updated next week so that – for the purpose of becoming autoconfirmed – the account age will be counted from their first edit, instead of registration date. The numeric value of the age threshold will remain the same. This change will be deployed only to wikis which require at least one edit as part of the autoconfirmation conditions.

Currently, users who have had an account for a few days and made a few edits are automatically added to the [[{{int:grouppage-autoconfirmed/{{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}}}|{{int:group-autoconfirmed}}]] group. This configuration tends to be exploited by some vandals, who create accounts and start to use them only after some time. To mitigate this, the configuration will be updated next week so that – for the purpose of becoming autoconfirmed – the account age will be counted from their first edit, instead of registration date. The numeric value of the age threshold will remain the same. This change will be deployed only to wikis which require at least one edit as part of the autoconfirmation conditions. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T418484] * All Wikipedia users with new accounts and those who activated the "automatically enable most beta features" option in their preference can now use the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4 Reading lists|reading lists]] beta feature to save articles for later reading.

As a result, existing preferences will be mapped to the nearest new size (for example, smaller selections like 120px or 150px will render at 180px, while larger ones like 300px or 360px will render at 400px). The preferences interface will soon be updated to reflect these changes, and users who wish to opt out or provide feedback can do so.

'''Weekly highlight''' * Following a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#LOWM|successful account creation experiment]], an improved logged-out edit warning message will be deployed to all Wikimedia wikis in the first week of June. The change will only affect logged-out users on mobile web who open an editing session. The updated experience is designed to encourage account creation more clearly, while still allowing users to edit with temporary accounts. Results from the experiment showed a significant increase in account creation, with a 27% relative lift among users shown the updated message. As expected, as more people funnel into account creation, temporary accounts decreased by a relative 16%. The experiment did not show any significant changes in constructive edit rates or other monitored contributor metrics. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T424595] '''Updates for editors''' * For security reasons, members of certain user groups are [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Mandatory two-factor authentication for users with some extended rights|required to have two-factor authentication]] (2FA) enabled. Members of these groups will be unable to disable the 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 next few weeks, users without 2FA will be removed from these groups. Notably, this applies to bureaucrats. See the linked tasks for deployment schedules.

This means that anyone who has all beta features on by default will start to see this feature, and others can check the box to turn it on in their preferences.

Communities interested in making the game available in their languages can [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Apps/Team/Games#Game availability by language|read the instructions and requirements]]. * [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|Sub-referencing]], a new MediaWiki feature that allows editors to reuse references with different details, will begin rolling out to Wikimedia wikis following a successful pilot phase. Deployment will start on 8 June for most [[wikitech:Deployments/Train#Wednesday|Group 1 wikis]] and French Wikipedia, with additional Wikipedia language editions receiving the feature over the coming months. Communities are encouraged to prepare by checking for [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special%3ATranslate&group=ext-cite&language=en&action_source=search&filter=%21translated&optional=1&action=translate untranslated Cite extension messages] in their language and reviewing any use of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reference Tooltips|Reference Tooltips]], which may require [[:phab:T416304#11668731|updates]] to support the new functionality. Wikis using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Reference Previews|Reference Previews]] do not need to take any action. Communities may also wish to create the ''cite-tracking-category-ref-details'' [[Special:TrackingCategories|tracking category]] as a hidden category using <code><nowiki>__HIDDENCAT__</nowiki></code> (or a dedicated template), and connect it to the corresponding Wikidata item [[d:Q129764848]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T425662] * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/Mobile page previews#Experimentation|Page Previews experiment]] on mobile web has concluded. The team decided not to roll out the feature after the results showed no statistically significant impact on reader retention, as the primary success metric was retention improvement. Page Previews, which are already available on desktop and in the apps, display a thumbnail, lead paragraph, and link to the full article when readers tap a blue link. The experiment tested this experience on mobile web across six Wikipedias. * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Codex/Design/Icons|user interface icon library]] will be [[phab:T399175|updated later this week or next week]]. Most of the ~300 icons have been slightly refined and ~30 new icons have been added. These changes improve the icons to make them more consistent and comprehensible, and provide more visual balance when they are used in groups. * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Language Selector|Universal Language Selector]] (ULS) interface in MediaWiki, which helps users select content in other languages, has been updated. The new version improves speed and accessibility, and users of Wikimedia projects can now pin languages for quicker language switching. The deployment to Wikimedia sites will happen gradually in the coming weeks. You can test it now as a beta feature by selecting [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|beta features]] in your profile preferences and share your feedback on [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Language Selector/New ULS|the project page]]. * [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:21}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:21|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, an issue where the Pageviews Analysis dashboard on pageviews.wmcloud.org stopped updating graph data in May 2026, affecting all users, has been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T427171] '''Updates for technical contributors''' * The function signature for <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>mw.util.addPortletLink()</nowiki></code></bdi> has been simplified. Developers can now pass a configuration object instead of a list of positional parameters when creating portlet links. The previous function signature remains supported for backwards compatibility. For example, instead of: <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>mw.util.addPortletLink('p-cactions', '#', 'Stub', 'ca-stubtag', 'Add a stub tag to this page');</nowiki></code></bdi> use <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>mw.util.addPortletLink('p-cactions', { href: '#', text: 'Stub', id: 'ca-stubtag', tooltip: 'Add a stub tag to this page' });</nowiki></code></bdi>. Script maintainers are encouraged to review existing uses of <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>addPortletLink()</nowiki></code></bdi> and update them where appropriate. This change will be available on all wikis from 11 June. Thanks to community volunteer Gerges for contributing this improvement.

Editors can configure this feature with the following controls: to hide a specific image from a page, either use <code>class=notpageimage</code> excluding it from thumbnail previews, or <code>class=noviewer</code> excluding it from MediaViewer. The carousel can also be disabled from a page entirely, with the magic word <code><nowiki>__NOMEDIAVIEWERCAROUSEL__</nowiki></code>.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T429769] '''Updates for technical contributors''' * In preparation for [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Event:Celebrate Women|Celebrate Women campaign]] planned for March 2027, the Wikimedia Foundation’s [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation/Advancement/Community Growth/Content Enablement|Content Enablement team]] has launched a 22-question survey to better understand technical contributions by women+ (anyone who identifies as a woman) across Wikimedia projects. The survey takes approximately 15–20 minutes to complete and will remain open until 20 July 2026. The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Celebrate Women/Technical contributions survey|questions]] are also available on-wiki for review in advance. * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Score|Score extension]] now supports rendering music scores as SVG images in addition to PNG, addressing a long-standing [[:phab:T49578|feature request]] and resolving historical image quality issues. Both formats are now provided to clients, with PNG in the <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>src</nowiki></code></bdi> attribute and SVG in the <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>srcset</nowiki></code></bdi> attribute. * The new [[wikitech:Parsoid|Parsoid]] parser [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser_Unification/Updates|continues to be deployed to additional wikis]], making it easier to introduce new reading and editing features. It was enabled on French Wikipedia, bringing total progress to covering 78.9% of Wikipedia page views. Rollout to English Wikipedia desktop will progress through this week. * [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] Detailed code updates later this week: [[mw:MediaWiki 1.47/wmf.10|MediaWiki]] '''In depth''' * The Wikimedia Hackathon 2026 [[diffblog:2026/06/29/wikimedia-hackathon-2026-building-collaborating-and-shaping-the-future-together/|recap blog post]] is now live.

'''Updates for editors''' * [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Revise_Tone|Revise Tone]] helps newcomers identify passages in Wikipedia articles that may contain non-encyclopedic language and encourages them to consider revising the tone. The feature was [[w:en:A/B_testing|A/B tested]] on the Arabic, English, French, and Portuguese Wikipedias, where newcomer task completion rates [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Revise_Tone#Experiment_Results|increased by 38.7%]] compared to the default Copyedit task, with no decrease in edit quality. The test ended on July 9, and the feature is now available for everyone on these wikis, configurable via Community Configuration. [[phab:T426364|The plan]] is to release Revise Tone to more wikis. * The community configuration that allows [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Growth/Mentorship#Automated mentor list cleanup|automatic removal of inactive mentors]] based on configurable criteria will be enabled on Thursday 16, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Deployment|on some wikis]] to keep mentor lists up to date. Mentors are experienced contributors who opt in to help new users on-wiki through the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Growth/Feature summary|Growth Features]]. Administrators can now prepare the settings via [[w:Special:CommunityConfiguration/Mentorship|Special:CommunityConfiguration/Mentorship]]; they will take effect starting Thursday. * [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:38}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:38|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, an issue where some users of the Wikipedia Android app were logged out immediately after signing in, preventing them from staying logged in and editing pages, has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T316916] '''Updates for technical contributors''' * Editing a page via user scripts or gadgets was causing watchlist labels that the user had assigned to that page to reset. This has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T423778] * To work around a Safari bug (see [[phab:T425211]]), on Parsoid-enabled wikis, wikilink hrefs now use absolute urls instead of protocol-relative urls. REST API output remains unchanged and continue to use protocol-relative urls. Gadgets, user scripts, bots, and CSS might need to be adapted if they relied on the presence of protocol-relative urls in wikilink hrefs.

'''Updates for editors''' * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reader/Reader Experience|Reader Experience team]] has incorporated community feedback around the placement of watchstar and watchlist buttons for the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/WE3.3.4 Reading lists|Reading Lists beta feature]], which would allow for saving articles for later reading – a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist/W102|wishlist item]] to bring the functionality to web. Editors are invited to enable the beta feature to test it out and [[phab:T426453|share their thoughts]]. * [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Suggestion Mode|Suggestion Mode]] offers edit suggestions within the VisualEditor for improving Wikipedia articles. [[Special:EditChecks|All suggestions]] are [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion mode#For administrators – local customization|community-configurable]]. The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/TextMatch|TextMatch]] feature is a way for volunteers to create custom local suggestions. The feature searches in articles for strings of text, and now includes support for regular expressions. This gives volunteers greater precision and flexibility over the kinds of local suggestions they can create. Note: Suggestions [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Edit check/Configuration#:~:text=maximumEditcount|can be targeted]] based on the edit count of the person editing as well as other aspects of the page. You can [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Suggestion mode#Create custom local types of Suggestions|find examples from other communities]] for inspiration, including TextMatches that detect: typos, grammar-errors, potential advertisements, clichés, incorrect dash or hyphen usage, non-specific time keywords, outdated names, and more. Any [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:VisualEditor/Suggestion Mode|feedback]] is appreciated. * [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:27}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:27|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, an issue where the SVG Translate tool could use an outdated version of a file, causing existing translations to be overwritten when new ones were uploaded, has now [[phab:T430577|been fixed]]. Overall, in the last quarter from April – June 2026 about 337 community tasks were resolved by the Wikimedia Foundation. '''Updates for technical contributors''' * On Parsoid-enabled wikis, Parsoid now renders a maximum of 1,250 images per page. A new tracking category, "media-limit-reached", will be soon made available to identify pages where this limit is reached, making it easier to find content whose media output may have been restricted during rendering.

'''Updates for editors''' * [[File:Maki-gift-15.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Wishlist item]] [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/ContentTranslation|Content Translation]] now supports dark mode, fulfilling a [[m:Community Wishlist/W544|Community Wishlist request]]. This brings the tool in line with the accessibility features available in the Vector 2022 and Minerva skins, helping reduce visual fatigue for users translating content. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T367077] * DiscussionTools' source mode and the 2017 wikitext editor will now offer autocomplete for links (<bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>[[</nowiki></code></bdi>), templates (<bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>{{</nowiki></code></bdi>), HTML and parser tags (<bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki><</nowiki></code></bdi>), and magic words (<bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>__</nowiki></code></bdi>), making it quicker and easier to insert links, templates, and other wiki markup while editing. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T432400] * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Growth/Mobile page previews|Readers Growth team]] has concluded its experiment with mobile page previews and will not roll out the feature. Page Previews are a pop-up bottom sheet that appears when readers tap a blue link, showing a thumbnail, lead paragraph, and an option to open the article. The experiment showed flat retention and negative indicator metrics, suggesting that mobile web readers preferred navigating directly to linked articles rather than using page previews. * The Reader Experience team has seen encouraging early results from the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Readers/Reader Experience/Reading lists|Reading Lists feature]], with 93% of participating users reporting that it was useful. Reading Lists help active readers save articles for future reading and support their learning goals on Wikimedia projects. The team plans further improvements before expanding the feature to more users. * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Apps/Team/Explore Feed Refresh|Explore Feed Refresh]] initiative was tested with new and casual Wikipedia app readers. The refreshed feed helps readers discover new and relevant content. After a 10.5% increase in engagement with the feed, Wikimedia Apps team has decided to scale the Home Feed redesign to iOS with the learnings from the Android release applied. * [[File:Reload icon with two arrows.svg|12px|link=|class=skin-invert|Recurrent item]] View all {{formatnum:23}} community-submitted {{PLURAL:23|task|tasks}} that were [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/Recently resolved community tasks|resolved last week]]. For example, an issue where subject names in the Article Guidance feature were displayed with incorrect capitalization on French Wikipedia, has now been fixed. Subject names will now follow the correct capitalization rules for the language. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T427201] '''Updates for technical contributors''' * After running several [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments|Account Creation Experiments]] to improve registration completion rates, a new version of the username field on [[Special:CreateAccount|Create Account]] has been rolled out. It includes [[:c:File:Create account - July 2026 updates.png|a popover summarizing the username policy]] to provide clearer guidance during account creation. As part of this change, the messages <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>createacct-helpusername</nowiki></code></bdi> and <bdi lang="zxx" dir="ltr"><code><nowiki>createacct-username-help</nowiki></code></bdi> that several communities have configured will no longer be used.

[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T430604] * Later this week, the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror syntax highlighter]] will offer [[w:en:Theme (computing)|themes]]. The themes can be picked from a dropdown menu in the full [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#CodeMirror preferences|CodeMirror preferences]] dialog. For wikitext, available themes are default, colorblind-friendly (previously the colorblind preference option on [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing]]) and no-highlighting.

Bisan tuod ang daghang etnikong grupo sa kapupud-an sa Pilipinas bag-o lang nakatukod og usa ka giambitan nga [[Nasyonalismong Pilipinhon|nasudnong identidad]] [[Pilipino|sa mga Pilipino]], ang ilang mga kultura gihulma sa heyograpiya ug kasaysayan sa rehiyon, ingon man sa kasiglohan nga pakig-uban sa mga silingang kultura ug sa mga kolonyal nga gahom. Sa bag-ohay nga panahon, ang kulturang Pilipino naimpluwensyahan usab pinaagi sa partisipasyon niini sa global nga komunidad. == Kasaysayan == Lakpi sa mga kasamtangang etnikong grupo sa kapupud-an sa Pilipinas, ang mga Negrito kasagarang giisip nga labing una nga mga lumulupyo; karon, bisan gamay ra ang gidaghanon, ilang gipreserbar ang tradisyonal nga paagi sa kinabuhi ug kultura. Human niadtong mga unang nanimuyo, miabot ang [[Mga katawhang Austronesian|mga Austronesyano]] sa kapupud-an. Ang kulturang Austronesyano klaro kaayong makita sa kadaghanang etniko ug mga pinulongan. Sa wala pa [[European colonization of the Americas|moabot ang mga Europeong kolonisador]] niadtong 1500s, ang nagkalain-laing etnikong grupo sa Pilipinas giorganisar ngadto sa nagkalain-laing independente [[Polities|nga mga politika]], nga gitawag sa mga historyador nga "[[balangay|mga barangay]] ". Kini nga mga polities gilangkoban sa mga traynta ngadto sa usa ka gatos ka mga panimalay, ug gimandoan sa mga lider nga adunay mga titulo. Ang pinakadako niini, sama sa [[Butuan (historical polity)|Butuan]], [[Gingharian sa Tondo|Tondo]] ug ang [[Sultanato sa Sulu|Sultanato sa Sulu,]] mga komplikado nga pormasyon sa politika nga gibase sa mga delta sa pinakadako nga sistema sa suba sa kapupud-an, nga adunay mga relasyon sa politika ug pamatigayon sa mga gobyerno nga mas taas sa ibabaw sa dagat sa usa ka bahin, ug sa mga gahum sa politika ug pamatigayon sa [[Maritime Southeast Asia]] ug [[Sidlakang Asya|East Asia]] sama sa [[Sultanate of Brunei|Sultanato sa Brunei]], ang imperyo [[Majapahit|sa Majapahit]], ang mga Dinastiyang [[Qing dynasty|Qing]] ug [[Ming dynasty|Ming]] sa China, ug bisan ang [[Japanese in the Philippines|Japan]]. [[Indian influences in early Philippine polities|Ang dili direkta nga pagbayloay og kultura]] ug pipila ka patigayon nahitabo usab sa [[Indian Subcontinent|subkontinente sa India]] ug [[Arabia]]. Ang pagsugod sa kolonyal nga pagmando sa Espanya sa mga isla nagtimaan sa pagsugod sa Pilipinas isip usa ka entidad, usa ka koleksyon sa mga nasud sa Habagatang-Sidlakang Asya nga nahiusa ubos sa [[Imperyong Espanyol|Imperyong Espanya]] . Ang imperyo nagmando, pinaagi sa [[Bag-ong Espanya|Viceroyalty sa New Spain]] ug sa ulahi direkta gikan sa Madrid (human sa 1821 nga kagawasan sa Mexico), ang mga isla tali sa ika-16 ug ika-19 nga siglo ([[Batanes|ang Batanes]] usa sa katapusang mga lugar nga gikolonisasyon sa tunga-tunga sa 1800s), nga miresulta sa pagkaylap ug pagdominar [[Kristiyanismo|sa Kristiyanismo]] sa tibuok arkipelago ug nakaimpluwensya sa relihiyon ug mga gituohan sa mga lumad. Unya, ang Pilipinas nahimong teritoryo sa Amerika sulod sa halos 50 ka tuig. Ang impluwensya gikan sa [[Tinípong Bánsà|Estados Unidos]] makita sa kaylap nga paggamit sa [[Iningles|pinulongang Ingles]], media ug sa modernong kultura ug sinina sa kasamtangang Pilipinas. ==Heograpiya ug mga grupong etniko== [[Payl:Peoples_of_the_Philippines_en.svg|thumb|388x388px|Mga dominanteng grupong etniko matag probinsya.]] Ang kultura sa Pilipinas nahulma sa heyograpiya, topograpiya, ug pisikal nga lokasyon niini sa [[Maritime Southeast Asia]], nga tanan naghubit sa kasaysayan sa kultura sa 175 ka grupong Etnolinggwistiko sa nasud. '''Impluwensya sa heyograpiya''' Ang pagkalain-lain sa kultura sa Pilipinas resulta sa kinaiya sa [[Archipelagic state|arkipelago]] sa nasud. Ang Pilipinas, isip ikalima nga pinakadakong [[List of island countries|isla]] sa kalibutan, usa sa lima ka orihinal nga arkipelagong estado nga giila ubos sa [[United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea]] (UNCLOS). Ang 7,641 ka isla niini adunay kinatibuk-ang gilapdon sa yuta nga {{Convert|300000|km2|0}}; [[Exclusive economic zone|ang eksklusibong sona sa ekonomiya]] niini —nga naglangkob sa usa ka lugar {{Convert|200|nmi|km}} gikan sa baybayon sa mga isla niini—naglangkob og {{Convert|2263816|km2|sqmi}} sa dagat. Ang transportasyon sa dagat ug suba nagtugot sa pagbayloay og kultura tali sa [[Ethnic groups in the Philippines|lain-laing mga grupo sa etniko sa nasud]] nga nanimuyo sa lain-laing mga isla sulod sa kapupud-an; sa laing bahin, ang mga kabukiran sa sulod sa nasud usa ka dakong babag sa koneksyon sa kultura tali sa lain-laing mga grupo. '''Mga grupong etniko sa Pilipinas''' Ang [[Pilipinas]] gipuy-an sa kapin sa 182 [[Ethnolinguistic group|ka etnolinggwistikong mga grupo]], daghan niini ang giklasipikar nga "Mga Lumad nga Katawhan" ubos sa [[Indigenous Peoples' Rights Act of 1997|Indigenous Peoples' Rights Act sa nasud sa 1997]]. Ang mga tradisyonal nga Muslim gikan sa pinakahabagatang grupo sa isla sa Mindanao kasagarang giklasipikar nga [[Moro (Pilipinas)|mga Moro]], giklasipikar man sila nga mga Lumad o dili. Mga 142 ang giklasipikar nga dili Muslim nga mga grupo sa Lumad, ug mga 19 ka etnolinggwistikong grupo ang giklasipikar nga dili lumad o moro.  Nagkalain-laing mga grupo [[Immigration|sa mga migrante]] ang adunay usab hinungdanon nga presensya sa tibuok kasaysayan sa nasud. Ang mga grupong etniko nga [[kalibotang Islamanon|mayoriya sa Muslim]] sa [[Mindanao]], [[Sulu Archipelago|Sulu]], ug [[Palawan Island|Palawan]] gitawag nga [[Moro (Pilipinas)|mga Moro]], usa ka halapad nga kategorya nga naglakip sa pipila ka mga grupo sa lumad ug pipila ka mga grupo sa dili lumad. Mga 142 sa [[Indigenous peoples of the Philippines|mga grupo sa Lumad nga Katawhan sa Pilipinas]] ang wala giklasipikar nga mga katawhang moro.  Ang uban niining mga grupo sa mga tawo kasagarang gihiusa tungod sa ilang kusganong kalambigitan sa usa ka giambitan nga heyograpikanhong lugar, bisan kung kini nga halapad nga mga kategorya dili kanunay gidawat sa mga etnikong grupo mismo. Pananglitan, ang mga lumad nga katawhan sa [[Cordillera Central Mountains|Cordillera Mountain Range]] sa amihanang [[Luzon]] kanunay nga gitawag gamit ang [[exonym]] nga "mga Igorot," ug isip [[mga Kordilyeranhon|mga katawhang Cordilleran]]. Samtang, ang mga dili-Moro nga katawhan sa Mindanao gitawag nga [[Lumad]], usa ka kolektibong [[Exonym and endonym|autonym]] nga nahunahunaan niadtong 1986 isip usa ka paagi aron mailhan sila gikan sa ilang silingang lumad nga mga silingang Moro. Mga 86 ngadto sa 87 porsyento sa populasyon sa Pilipinas ang nahisakop sa 19 ka etnolinggwistikong grupo nga giklasipikar nga dili lumad o moro  nailhan lang nga mga Pilipino, kini nga mga grupo usahay gitawag nga "Mga grupo [[Christianization|nga Kristiyano]] sa Lowland" aron mailhan sila gikan sa ubang mga grupo sa etnolinggwistiko. Ang pinakadaghang populasyon niini nga mga grupo, nga adunay populasyon nga sobra sa usa ka milyon nga indibidwal, mao ang [[Ilocano people|Ilokano]], ang [[Pangasinanon|Pangasinense]], ang [[mga Kapampangan|Kapampangan]], ang [[Tagalog]], ang [[Ivatan people|Ivatan]], ang [[Cuyonon people|Cuyonon]], ang [[mga Bikolnon|Bicolano]], ang [[Bisaya]] ([[Sugboanon|Cebuanos]], [[mga Bul·anon|Boholano]], the [[mga Hiligaynon|Hiligaynon/Ilonggo]], and [[Waray]] ) ug daghan pa.  Kini nga mga grupo nakabig sa [[Kristiyanismo]] ug nahimong kabahin sa imperyo sa Espanya, ilabi na ang mga lumad ug migranteng grupo sa kapatagan-baybayon, ug misagop sa mga langyaw nga elemento sa kultura sa tibuok kasaysayan sa nasud. Tungod sa kasaysayan sa Pilipinas sukad sa [[History of the Philippines (1565–1898)|panahon sa kolonyal nga Espanyol]], adunay usab pipila ka makasaysayanong mga grupo sa migranteng kaliwat [[History of the Philippines (1565–1898)|sulod sa mga populasyon sa mga Pilipino sa kapatagan]] sama sa mga [[Chinese Filipino|Pilipinong Intsik]] ug [[Spanish Filipino|mga Pilipinong Espanyol]], nga parehong nakigsagol sa nahisgutang mga grupo sa etnikong [[Mga pinulongang Awstronesyo|nagsultig Austronesian]] sa kapatagan, nga nagpatunghag [[Filipino Mestizos|mga Pilipinong Mestizo]] . Kining mga grupoha naglangkob ug nakatampo usab sa dakong bahin sa populasyon sa nasod, ilabina [[sangkaburgesan|ang burgis]] niini, ug ekonomiya ug importante sa pagkatukod sa nasod, gikan sa pag-usbaw sa [[Nasyonalismong Pilipinhon|nasyonalismong Pilipino]] sa mga [[intelligentsia]] ''[[Ilustrado|sa Ilustrado]]'' hangtod sa [[Rebolusyong Pilipino]]. Ang ubang mga tawo nga adunay migrante ug/o sinagol nga kaliwat naglakip sa mga sama sa, [[Americans in the Philippines|mga Amerikanong Pilipino]], [[Indian Filipino|mga Indian nga Pilipino]], [[Japanese in the Philippines|mga Hapones nga Pilipino]], ug daghan pa.

Ang mga Latin American nga kaliwat sa Asya anaa na sa rehiyon sukad pa sa ika-16 nga siglo. Ang pagpanimuyo sa mga Latin America sa Asya nahitabo kasagaran gikan sa mga tuig 1500 hangtod sa ika-19 nga siglo; Dihang gigamit sa mga Espanyol ang mga marinero nga Pilipino aron dad-on ang mga Latin American tabok sa Pasipiko. Kini aron magsilbing mga mersenaryo ug negosyante aron dugangan ang mga pwersa sa mga sundalong Pilipino sa daghang mga gubat nga nahitabo sa Pilipinas batok sa mga silingang [[Muslim]] o Confucian nga naglibot sa Pilipinas (nga nagsiguro sa usa ka kahimtang sa kanunay nga gubat) o kaha aron dumalahon ang pamatigayon sa Manila Galleon tali sa [[Amerikang Latino|Latin America]] ug [[Asya]] . Niini nga sistema, ang mga mahalong bato nga gikuha gikan sa Habagatang Asya, mga panakot nga gikuha gikan sa [[Habagatan-sidlakang Asya|Habagatang-Sidlakang Asya]] ug seda ug porselana nga gipadala gikan sa Sidlakang Asya gitigom ug gipadala gikan sa Pilipinas tabok sa Kadagatang Pasipiko ngadto sa Latin America. kini ibaylo sa mga produkto sa Mexico sa Amihanang Amerika (ilabi na ang tsokolate ug pinya) ug pilak nga nakuha gikan sa mga minahan sa Peru sa Habagatang Amerika. Kini nga patigayon sa kadugayan mikaylap sa Europa diin ang pilak nga gimina sa Latin America ug seda nga natipon sa Pilipinas gigamit sa Espanya aron pondohan ang mga gubat niini sa tibuok Europa (kasagaran batok sa Ottoman Empire) ug sa gamay nga sukod, pagsuporta sa daghang mga gubat sa Pilipinas batok sa Sultanato sa Brunei ug sa daghang mga sultanato sa [[Mindanao]] . Sa gamay nga sukod, pipila ka mga Latin American ang namuyo usab sa mga pantalan sa Macau sa China ug Ternate sa Indonesia nga mga ikaduhang sentro sa pamatigayon sa panguna tali sa Manila ug Acapulco. Gawas niining makasaysayanong pagpuyo sa mga Latin American sa [[Pilipinas]], nga karon mihunong na ug wala na naglihok ug ang kasamtangang mga tawo mga kaliwat na lang sa Latin American imbes nga mga Latin American mismo, anaa usab ang modernong presensya sa mga Brazilian sa Japan nga mao ang pinakadakong presensya sa mga tawo gikan sa Amerika, nga nagpuyo sa Asya, gawas sa Pilipinas.

Ang titulo nagsugod niadtong 1388, sa dihang gihatag ni Haring Juan I sa Castile ang dignidad{{Spaced en dash}}nga naglakip sa hurisdiksyon sa teritoryo sa [[Principality of Asturias|Asturias]] – ngadto sa iyang panganay nga anak nga si Henry . Sa usa ka pagsulay sa pagtapos sa dinastikong pakigbisog tali sa mga manununod ni Haring Peter I ug Henry II sa Castile, ang prinsipalidad gipili isip pinakataas nga hurisdiksyon nga pagkaginoo nga mahatag sa Hari nga wala pa mahatag kang bisan kinsa. Ang kostumbre sa paghatag og talagsaong mga titulo sa mga manununod sa harianong pamilya gigamit na sa Korona sa Aragon ( Prinsipe sa Girona ) ug sa mga gingharian sa Inglatera ( Prinsipe sa Wales ), ug Pransiya ( Dauphin sa Viennois ). Busa, ang titulo adunay duha ka katuyoan: ang pagsilbi isip usa ka heneral nga titulo sa pagngalan sa manununod o manununod nga gituohan, ug isip usa ka piho nga titulo nga ipadapat sa prinsipe nga una sa linya sa pagpuli sa dihang gibalhin sa Hari kaniya ang teritoryo sa prinsipalidad, uban ang gobyerno ug kita niini. Human sa pagkaporma sa dinastiya nga panaghiusa tali sa mga Gingharian sa Castile ug Aragon ubos sa mga Katolikong Monarko, ang titulo gipaboran sa Hari sa Espanya, kinsa naandan nga naggamit niini sa samang paagi, nga mao ang iyang manununod. Sulod sa mga henerasyon, ang prinsipe sa korona sa gingharian nagtigom sa mga titulo nga "Prinsipe sa Asturias, Girona, Espanya ug ang Bag-ong Kalibutan", nga giusab ang mga titulo sa mga naunang naghari nga Habsburg: "Prinsipe niining mga Gingharian, Prinsipe sa Espanya ug ang Bag-ong Kalibutan" (''Príncipe de estos Reynos, príncipe de las Españas y del Nuevo Mundo''). Sa dihang milingkod ang mga Bourbon sa trono sa Espanya niadtong 1705, ang titulo gipadayon human sa dakong tabang sa Castile sa panimalay atol sa Gubat sa Pagsunod sa mga Espanyol. Sa pagsugod sa ika-19 nga siglo, ang Konstitusyon sa Espanya sa 1812 (tuig sa mga rebolusyon sa Europa) uban sa pagtugot sa mga katugbang niini nag-ingon nga ang titulo gihatag sa manununod sa Korona. Ang mga Konstitusyon sulod sa misunod nga mga dekada temporaryong nagtangtang sa sinonimo tali sa titulo ug posisyon isip manununod sa Korona; Sa wala pa kini ibalik ug gisubli sa ikaduhang katunga sa ika-19 nga siglo, unang katunga sa ika-20 nga siglo, ug sa pagpahiuli sa monarkiya (ubos sa dominasyon sa parlamento ) niadtong 1978. lttwphdow6z45kvs9qtuvfgid2cwltn 0 11355296 37025606 2026-08-11T03:22:32Z QueenCityCebu 123067 Created by translating the page "[[:en:Special:Redirect/revision/1366761889|Jones Law (Philippines)]]" 37025606 wikitext text/x-wiki [[Payl:William_Atkinson_Jones_(congressional).jpg|right|thumb| Si Kongresista William Jones ang nagsulat sa balaodnon nga mipuli sa Philippine Organic Act sa 1902.]] [[Payl:Jones_Law_poster_Philippines_1916.jpeg|right|thumb| Usa ka poster nga nag-anunsyo sa pagpasa sa Balaod ni Jones]] Ang '''Balaod ni Jones''' ( 39 Estadistika Ang 545, nailhan usab nga '''Jones Act''', ang '''Philippine Autonomy Act''', ug ang '''Act of Congress niadtong Agosto 29, 1916''') usa ka organikong balaod nga gipasar sa Kongreso sa Estados Unidos .

Nadiskobrehan kini ni Robert B. Fox, usa ka Amerikanong antropologo gikan sa National Museum of the Philippines, niadtong Mayo 28, 1962. Ang mga fossilized nga tipik sa usa ka bagolbagol sa usa ka babaye ug ang mga apapangig sa tulo ka indibidwal, nga nagsugod pa sa 16,500 ka tuig ang milabay, mao ang labing karaan nga nailhan sa lawas sa tawo nga adunay modernong pisikal nga knaiya anatomically modern human remains sa Pilipinas. == Mga fossil == Ang Tabon Cave complex daw usa ka matang sa pabrika sa Panahon sa Bato, diin nakit-an ang mga nahuman nga himan nga hinimo gikan sa tipik nga bato ug ang mga tipik nga galingan sa basura nakit-an sa upat ka managlahing lebel sa pangunang lawak. Ang uling nga nahibilin gikan sa tulo ka pundok sa mga kalayo nga gigamit sa pagluto gipaubos sa carbon-14 dating ug nasuta nga kini gikan pa sa gibanabanang 7,000, 20,000, ug 22,000 BCE . Ang tuo nga apapangig (mandibula) sa usa ka ''[[Tawo|Homo sapiens]]'', nga gikan pa sa 29,000 BC, nadiskobrehan uban sa usa ka bahin sa bagol-bagol (skullcap). Kini giisip nga labing karaan nga bahin sa bagulbagol sa modernong mga tawo nga nakit-an sa Pilipinas ug gituohang iya sa usa ka batan-ong babaye. Ang apapangig sa Tabon mao ang labing karaan nga ebidensya sa mga salin sa tawo nga nagpakita og mga kinaiya sa apapangig ug ngipon sa karaan o *archaic*. Ang tipik sa tibia sa Tabon, usa ka bukog gikan sa ubos nga bahin sa bitiis, nakit-an atol sa pagkubkob pag-usab sa Tabon Cave complex sa National Museum of the Philippines . Gipadala kini ngadto sa National Museum of Natural History sa France aron tun-an. Usa ka teknik sa accelerated carbon dating nagbutyag nga ang petsa niini 47 ± 11,000 ka tuig na ang milabay, nga naghimo niini nga labing karaan nga fossil sa tawo nga nakit-an sa complex. Ang Tabon Cave complex ginganlan sunod sa [[Megapodius cumingii|Tabon scrubfowl]] ( ''Megapodius cumingii'' ), nga nagdeposito og baga ug gahi nga mga lut-od sa guano sa mga panahon nga wala’y nagpuyo sa langob, mao nga ang misunod nga mga grupo sa mga tighimo og himan mipuyo sa usa ka salog nga sama sa semento sa tai sa langgam. Mga katunga sa 3,000 ka nakuha nga mga ispesimen nga gisusi mga gilabay nga kinauyokan sa usa ka materyal nga kinahanglan nga gidala gikan sa layo; kini nagpakita nga ang mga lumulupyo nalambigit sa paghimo og mga himan. Ang mga fossil sa Tabon giisip nga gikan sa ikatulong grupo sa mga lumulupyo, kinsa nagtrabaho sa langob tali sa 22,000 ug 20,000 BCE. Ang mas naunang lebel sa langob nahimutang nga layo kaayo sa lebel nga adunay mga pundok sa kalayo sa pagluto nga kini kinahanglan nga nagrepresentar sa mga petsa sa Upper Pleistocene sama sa 45,000 o 50,000 ka tuig ang milabay.

Sa kinatibuk-an, mga 483 ka mga patayng lawas sa tawo ang nakit-an sa mga ekspedisyon sa 1962 ug 2000.

Naglakip kini sa [[Provinsi Bali|Bali]], [[Borneo]], [[Java (pulo sa Indonesya)|Java]], ug [[Sumatra (pulo)|Sumatra]] sa [[Indonesia]], ug sa mga gagmayng isla nga naglibot niini, ingon man sa Malay Peninsula sa Mainland Southeast Asia. == Gilapdon == Ang lugar sa Sundaland naglangkob sa Sunda Shelf, usa ka tectonic stable nga extension sa continental shelf sa Southeast Asia nga mitunaw sa ibabaw sa tubig atol sa mga panahon sa glacial sa miaging 2 milyon ka tuig. Halos pareho usab kini ig sakop sa plato sa Sunda. Ang gilapdon sa Sunda Shelf halos katumbas sa 120-metros nga isobath . Gawas sa Malay Peninsula ug sa mga isla sa Borneo, Java, ug Sumatra, naglakip usab kini sa Java Sea, ang Gulpo sa Thailand, ug mga bahin sa [[Dagat Habagatang Tsina|South China Sea]]. Sa kinatibuk-an, ang gilapdon sa Sundaland anaa sa gibana-bana nga 1,800,000&nbsp;^km2. Ang gilapdon sa yuta nga makita sa ibabaw sa tubig sa Sundaland dako ug kausaban sa milabay sa 2 milyon ka tuig; ang kasamtangan gilapdon sa yuta anaa lamang sa halos katunga na sa kinatas-ang gilapdon niini. Ang kasadpan ug habagatang mga utlanan sa Sundaland klarong gimarkahan sa mas lawom nga katubigan sa Sunda Trench – ang pipila sa pinakalawom sa kalibutan – ug ang [[Kadagatang Indyan]]. Ang sidlakang utlanan sa Sundaland mao ang Wallace Line, nga giila ni Alfred Russel Wallace isip sidlakang utlanan sa han-ay sa mga mananap [[Mamipero|nga sus]] -an sa yuta sa Asya, ug busa ang utlanan sa Indomalayan ug Australasian nga mga gingharian . Ang mga isla sa sidlakan sa linya sa Wallace nailhan nga Wallacea, usa ka lahi nga rehiyon sa biogeograpiya nga giisip nga bahin sa Australasia . Ang Wallace Line katumbas sa usa ka lawom nga agianan sa tubig nga wala pa gyud matabok sa bisan unsang mga taytayan sa yuta. Ang amihanang utlanan sa Sundaland mas lisod ipasabot sa bathymetric nga mga termino; ang phytogeographic transition sa gibana-bana nga 9ºN giisip nga amihanang utlanan. Mas dakong bahin sa Sundaland ang bag-o lang nabutyag atol sa katapusang panahon sa yelo gikan sa gibana-bana nga 110,000 ngadto sa 12,000 ka tuig ang milabay. Sa dihang ang lebel sa dagat mikunhod og 30–40 metros o labaw pa, ang mga taytayan sa yuta nagkonektar sa mga isla sa Borneo, Java, ug Sumatra ngadto sa Malay Peninsula ug mainland Asia. Tungod kay ang lebel sa dagat 30 metros o labaw pa nga mas ubos sa kadaghanan sa miaging 800,000 ka tuig, ang kasamtangang kahimtang sa Borneo, Java, ug Sumatra isip mga isla talagsa ra nga mahitabo sa tibuok Pleistocene. Sa kasukwahi, ang lebel sa dagat mas taas sa ulahing bahin sa Pliocene, ug ang nabutyag nga lugar sa Sundaland mas gamay kay sa naobserbahan sa pagkakaron. Ang Sundaland nalubog sa tubig sa bahin sugod mga 18,000 ka tuig ang milabay ug nagpadayon hangtod mga 5000 BC. Atol sa Katapusang Glacial Maximum, ang lebel sa dagat miubos ug gibana-bana nga 120 metros, ug ang tibuok Sunda Shelf nabutyag.

Kini nga sistema nagganti sa mga Espanyol nga mananakop pinaagi sa pinugos nga trabaho gikan sa mga lumad nga katawhan.Aduna nay naglungtad nga sistema sa pagkaulipon, ''Ang alipin'', sa wala pa gikolonya sa [[Imperyong Espanyol]] ang mga isla niadtong 1565, apan lahi kini tungod kay ang mga grupo sa lumad nga mga tawo wala obligado sa paghatag og pinugos nga trabaho sa mga labaw. Hinuon, ang ''mga alipin'' naghatag og mga serbisyo ug trabaho ubos sa usa ka komplikado nga sistema sa mga obligasyon; sa pagkatinuod ang etimolohiya nagpakita nga sila sa sinugdanan mga bihag sa gubat nga naghatag og lukat. Human sa pagsulat sa usa ka Espanyol nga klerigo ug repormador sa katilingban nga si Bartolomé de las Casas usa ka Espanyol nga pari ug tigreporma,misaway sa mga pang-abuso batok sa lumad ubos sa sistemang encomienda ug sa mga lumad nga katawhan sa iyang libro nga A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies, ang kagubot sa publiko ug ang iyang pag-lobby sa Espanya maoy hinungdan sa pagpatuman sa Bag-ong mga Balaod niadtong 1542. Sumala sa iyang kaugalingong mga asoy, ang mga ulipon nga lumad sa Indies gisunog nga buhi, gipagutom, gipugos sa pagtrabaho sa mga minahan, ug ang mga babaye mihunong sa paggama og gatas tungod sa mabug-at nga trabaho nga ilang gipugos. Samtang walay susamang grapikong mga asoy sa mga pag-abuso nga giantos sa lumad nga mga Pilipino, daghang mga pag-alsa ang nahitabo tungod sa ''encomienda'' bisan human sa pagpasar sa bag-ong mga balaod ug ang padayon nga pag-abuso sa sistema natala. Gikan sa ulahing bahin sa ika-16 nga siglo hangtod sa sayong bahin sa ika-17 nga siglo, ang mga sundalong Espanyol, mga opisyal, ug mga lumulupyo kasagarang nakakuha og mga ulipon pinaagi sa naglungtad nang lumad nga sistema ''sa alipin'' isip usa ka paagi aron malikayan ang Bag-ong mga Balaod. Daghan niining mga ulipon ang gidala balik sa [[Bag-ong Espanya|Nueva España]] (diin gitawag sila og ''mga chinos'' ) ug [[Espanya]] isip personal nga mga sulugoon o mga ulipon sa mga tripulante ug pasahero sa Espanya sa Manila Galleons . Dugang pa, daghang lumad nga mga Pilipino ang napugos usab sa pagserbisyo isip mga marinero para sa mga galyon, kasagaran ubos sa lisod nga mga kondisyon. Kini nga mga praktis ug ang lumad nga sistema ''sa alipin'' sa kadugayan nahunong sa tunga-tunga sa 1600s, human sa dugang nga mga mando sa hari nga nagmando sa mapintas nga mga silot alang sa mga paglapas sa mga Balaod sa mga Indies, ingon man sa bug-at nga buhis nga gipangayo sa mga personal nga sulugoon nga gidala sakay sa mga galleon. Apan, ang pagpangulipon sa mga tawo nga dili sakop sa hurisdiksyon sa Espanya wala gidili. Ang mga ulipon nga gipalit gikan sa ubang mga merkado sa ulipon sa Habagatang-Sidlakang Asya moagi sa Manila ug padayon sa Mexico sakay sa Manila Galleons. Ang mga lumad nga bihag sa Espanya gikan sa [[panagbangi sa Espanya ug Moro]] giulipon usab niining paagiha. Sa laing bahin, ang mga Pilipino nga sakop sa Espanya sagad giulipon sa mga pirata ug mga tulisan nga Moro . Sila giapil isip mga ulipon sa mga Sultanato sa Moro, gilukat ngadto sa mga paryente, o gibaligya ngadto sa Dutch East Indies (pinaagi sa Sultanato sa Gowa ) ug sa mga Intsik. sdjksa3hwfby6i8aw7zcofwlcojgpgd 0 11355305 37025627 2026-08-11T08:18:51Z MaricrisCPH 147100 Created by translating the page "[[:en:Special:Redirect/revision/1367696739|Captaincy General of the Philippines]]" 37025627 wikitext text/x-wiki Ang '''Kapitan Heneral sa Pilipinas''' usa ka administratibong teritoryo nga sakop sa [[Imperyong Espanyol]] sa [[Habagatan-sidlakang Asya|Habagatang-Sidlakang Asya]] Gipangulohan kini sa usa ka gobernador-heneral nga responsable sa pagdumala sa kolonya.

Natawo siya mga 1512 ug namatay niadtong 1581. Human sa pagdumala ni [[Miguel Lopez de Legazpi|Miguel López de Legazpi]] mipuli si lavezaris isip gobernador niadtong 1572. Nagpabilin siya sa maong posisyin hangtod sa Agosto 25,1575, sa dihang gipulihan siya ni Francisco de Sande niadtong Agosto 25, 1575. == Sayong kinabuhi == Dili kaayo daghan ang kasayuran bahin sa kinabuhi ni Gobernador-Heneral Lavezares. Niadtong 1543, nahimo siyang miyembro sa [[Ruy López de Villalobos|Villalobos Expedition]] nga mibiyahe paingon sa [[Pilipinas]]. Siya nahimong harianong tresurero sa ekspedisyon atol sa nabigasyon. Sa ulahi, usa siya sa daghang mga binilanggo nga nakalingkawas gikan sa usa ka prisohan sa [[Pulau Ambon|Isla sa Ambon]] sa dihang ang mga tripulante ug mga barko ni Villalobos nadakpan sa nagpatrolyang [[Portuges|mga Portuges]]. == Pagkagobernador == Atol sa iyang pagkagobernador, iyang gimandoan ang apo ni Legazpi nga si Juan de Salcedo nga moadto sa amihanang bahin sa [[Luzon]] uban sa mga 100 ka sundalong Espanyol ug sakupon ang kasamtangang [[Rehiyon sa Ilocos|Ilocos]] ug tukoron [[Vigan|ang Villa Fernandina]]. Nasakop usab ni Lavezaris ang peninsula sa Camarines ug gihatagan og daghang mga encomiendas ang iyang mga matinud-anon nga heneral. Niadtong 1574, iyang napildi ang bangis nga pirata nga Intsik nga si Limahong sa dihang misulay kini sa pagsakop sa Pilipinas. Niadtong 1575, [[Espanyol|ang Espanyol]] nga prayle nga si Martín de Rada nagsang-at og reklamo ngadto kang Haring Philip II sa Espanya batok kang Lavezaris, nga misangpot sa iyang pagkatangtang sa katungdanan. Gikataho nga nag-abuso siya sa gahom ug nagpahamtang og mas taas nga buhis sa mga lumad. == Pagkahuman sa pagkagobernador == Wala na siya mibalik sa Espanya apan miretiro isip usa ka adunahang encomendero . Ang iyang manununod nga si Francisco de Sande nagpagawas ug mando niadtong 1576 nga nag-ingon sa pagbahin sa iyang encomienda ngadto sa gagmay nga mga yuta nga iapod-apod ngadto sa mga lumad. Si Sande nagsang-at usab og mga legal nga kaso sama sa usurpation ngadto kaniya, apan kini gi-abswelto sa ulahi ni Philip II.

Human kini makit-i, ang teksto unang gihubad niadtong 1991 ni Antoon Postma, usa ka Dutch anthropologist ug Hanunó'o script researcher. Ang inskripsiyon nagdokumento sa paglungtad ug mga ngalan sa pipila ka mga estado sa palibot sukad sa AD 900, sama sa [[Dakbayang estado|siyudad-estado]] sa [[Tagalog]] nga Tondo . Gilangkit sa pipila ka historyador ang toponym nga ''Medang'' niining inskripsiyon bahin sa palasyo sa Medang sa [[Java (pulo sa Indonesya)|Java]] niadtong panahona, bisan tuod ang ngalan usa ka komon nga termino nga gikan sa Malayo-Polynesian. == Deskripsyon == Ang inskripsiyon hinimo gikan sa [[tumbaga]] ug may sukod nga mga {{Convert|20|x|30|cm}}, uban sa mga pulong nga direktang gikulit sa plato.

Gitala niini ang petsa isip tuig 822 sa panahon sa Shaka, ang bulan sa Vaishakha, ug ang ikaupat nga adlaw sa nag-anam nga bulan sa adlaw sa semana sa Somavara, nga katumbas sa Lunes, Abril 21, 900, sa [[Kalendaryong Hulyano|kalendaryong Julian]] .

Ang mga pulong nga Sanskrit gigamit alang sa teknikal nga mga termino, samtang ang mga pulong nga Javanese gigamit alang sa mga porma sa pagtawag . Ang Karaang Malay nga gigamit niini lahi sa mga pananglitan nga makita sa Java ug Sumatra. Ang dokumento nag-ingon nga gibuhian niini ang mga nagdala niini, ang mga anak ni ''Namwaran'', gikan sa utang nga [[bulawan]] nga mokabat sa 1 ''kati'' ug 8 ''ka suwarna'' (865 gramos; 27.8 troy ounces).

Sulod sa duha ka milenyo, ang Malay nakaagi sa nagkalain-laing mga yugto sa pag-uswag nga naggikan sa nagkalain-laing hut-ong sa impluwensya sa langyaw pinaagi sa internasyonal nga pamatigayon, pagpalapad sa relihiyon, kolonisasyon ug mga pag-uswag sa bag-ong sosyo-politikal nga mga uso. Ang labing karaan nga porma sa Malay naggikan sa Proto-Malayo-Polynesian nga pinulongan nga gigamit sa mga [[Mga katawhang Austronesian|Austronesian]] nga nanimuyo sa [[Habagatan-sidlakang Asya|Habagatang-Sidlakang Asya]] . Sa paglabay sa panahon, milambo samtang misulod sa rehiyon ang mga impluwensya gikan sa india. Gigamit usab ang mga karaang sistema sa pagsulat sama sa Kawi ug Rencong, sama sa gihisgutan sa pipila ka mga tigdukiduki sa lingguwistika. Ang Karaang Malay adunay pipila ka mga termino nga naglungtad karon, apan dili masabtan sa mga modernong mamumulong, samtang ang modernong pinulongan mailhan na sa kadaghanan sa sinulat nga Klasikal nga Malay sa 1303/87 CE. Ang Malay miuswag pag-ayo ngadto sa Klasikal nga Malay pinaagi sa hinay-hinay nga pag-agos sa daghang mga elemento sa bokabularyo sa Arabiko ug Persia sa dihang ang Islam nakaabot sa rehiyon. Sa sinugdanan, ang Klasikal nga Malay usa ka nagkalain-laing grupo sa mga diyalekto, nga nagpakita sa nagkalain-laing gigikanan sa mga gingharian sa Malay sa Habagatang-Sidlakang Asya. Usa niining mga diyalekto nga naugmad sa tradisyon sa panitikan sa Malacca niadtong ika-15 nga siglo, sa kadugayan nahimong dominante. Ang impluwensya sa Malacca sa internasyonal nga komersyo maoy nagdala sa Malay aron mahimong ''[[lingua franca]]'' sa komersyo ug diplomasya, usa ka kahimtang nga gipadayon sa mga misunod nga sultanato sa Malay, sa panahon sa kolonyal sa Europa ug sa modernong panahon. Gikan sa ika-19 hangtod ika-20 nga siglo, ang Malay padayon nga milambo pinaagi sa mga kausaban sa gramatika ug leksikon hangtod nahimo itong modernong pinulongan nga adunay kapin sa 800,000 ka mga hugpong sa mga pulong sa lain-laing disiplina.

Ang Kawi script mas kursibo kaysa sa lithic 'Pallava' script ug nagpakita og mas klaro nga mga bahin sa mga teknik sa pagsulat gamit ang dahon sa palma. Sukad sa tunga-tunga sa ika-8 nga siglo, gigamit kini alang sa mga dokumento sa chanchery sama sa mga grant sa yuta ug mando sa hari.
