Time to bring embedded maps (‘mapframe’) to most Wikipedias
संपादनTime to bring embedded maps (‘mapframe’) to most Wikipedias
कृपया आपल्या भाषेत भाषांतर करण्यास मदत करा
Mapframe is a feature that enables users to easily display interactive maps right on wiki pages. Currently, most Wikipedias don’t have mapframe. But fifteen Wikipedias, along with all the other Wikimedia projects, are using mapframe today to display maps on thousands of pages.
A little background: over the last few months, the Foundation’s Collaboration team has been working to improve the stability and user experience of the maps service. In addition, a question about long-term support for the maps service was recently settled, and a small team has been assigned for routine maintenance. Given these developments, bringing the benefits of mapframe to Wikipedias that lack the feature seems both safe and supportable. Nine Wikipedias that use a stricter version of Flagged Revisions will not get mapframe in this release.
Maps are a valuable form of visual data that can improve readers’ understanding across a wide range of topics. If you know of any reasons why mapframe shouldn’t be implemented on your Wikipedia, let us know on the project talk page. Unless we hear from you, we plan to release mapframe to most Wikipedias in May, 2018. So, if you foresee an issue, please let us hear from you. Otherwise, happy mapping!

विकिपीडियावर कारटोग्राफर एक्स्टेंशन
संपादनही चर्चा पुढील ७ दिवस (दिनांक ५ मे २०१८ पर्यंत) चालेल
मराठी विकिपीडियावर अनेक नवीन धोरणे व प्रगती करणारी क्रांती दिसत आहे. यात मी एक नवीन कारटोग्राफर एक्स्टेंशन मराठी विकिपीडियावर जोडण्याचा प्रस्ताव मांडत आहे. कारटोग्राफर एक्स्टेंशन हे <mapframe> आणि <maplink>
विकीवर जोडल्यावर त्याने नकाशा प्रणालीत एक नवीन प्रगती दिसेल. सद्या मराठी विकिपीडियाच्या नकाशा प्रणालीत नकाशे जोडण्याची आवशकता असायची. कारटोग्राफर हे सर्व सोडून विकिमीडिया मॅप्स आणि openstreetmap वरून डेटा घेऊन त्याला विकिमीडिया सहप्रकल्प विकीडेटाच्या मदतीने व Latitude (अक्षांश) आणि Longitute (रेखांश) च्या मदतीने एक हाय ग्राफिक मॅप तयार करतो.
उदाहरण
- सद्या मराठी विकिपीडियावरील मुंबई लेख पहा आणि कॉमन्स वरील मुंबईतील महितीचौकट पहा. या दोन्ही नकाशातील फरक आपोआप लक्षात येईल.

Wikitext highlighting out of beta
संपादनWikitext syntax highlighting, also known as CodeMirror, has been moved out of Beta Features and is available in the 2017 Wikitext Editor on all wikis. Syntax highlighting helps you see problems in your wikitext before previewing or publishing text. Please try out the tool if you did not do so while it was being developed, and feedback is welcome. - Keegan (WMF) (talk)

Improvements coming soon on Watchlists
संपादनHello
Sorry to use English. कृपया आपल्या भाषेत भाषांतर करण्यास मदत करा! Thank you.
In short: starting on June 18, New Filters for Edit Review (now in Beta) will become standard on Watchlists. They provide an array of new tools and an improved interface. If you prefer the current page you will be able to opt out. Learn more about the New Filters.
What is this feature again?
This feature is used by default on Special:RecentChanges, Special:RecentChangesLinked and as a Beta feature on Special:Watchlist.
Based on a new design, that feature adds new functions to those pages, to ease vandalism tracking and support of newcomers:
- Filtering - filter recent changes with easy-to-use and powerful filters combinations, including filtering by namespace or tagged edits.
- Highlighting - add a colored background to the different changes you are monitoring. It helps quick identification of changes that matter to you.
- Bookmarking to keep your favorite configurations of filters ready to be used.
- Quality and Intent Filters - those filters use ORES predictions. They identify real vandalism or good faith intent contributions that need help. They are not available on all wikis.
You can know more about this project by visiting the quick tour help page.
About the release on Watchlists
Over 70,000 people have activated the New Filters beta, which has been in testing on Watchlist for more than eight months. We feel confident that the features are stable and effective, but if you have thoughts about these tools or the beta graduation, please let us know on the project talk page. In particular, tell us if you know of a special incompatibility or other issue that makes the New Filters problematic on your wiki. We’ll examine the blocker and may delay release on your wiki until the issue can be addressed.
The deployment will start on June 18 or on June 25, depending on the wiki (check the list). After the deployment, you will also be able to opt-out this change directly from the Watchlist page and also in your preferences.
How to be ready?
Please share this announcement!
If you use local Gadgets that change things on your Watchlist pages, or have a customized scripts or CSS, be ready. You may have to make some changes to your configuration. Despite the fact that we have tried to take most cases into consideration, some configurations may break. The Beta phase is a great opportunity to have a look at local scripts and gadgets: some of them may be replaced by native features from the Beta feature.
Please share your questions and comments on the feedback page.

Update on page issues on mobile web
संपादनUpdate on page issues on mobile web
कृपया आपल्या भाषेत भाषांतर करण्यास मदत करा Hi everyone. The Readers web team has recently begun working on exposing issue templates on the mobile website. Currently, details about issues with page content are generally hidden on the mobile website. This leaves readers unaware of the reliability of the pages they are reading. The goal of this project is to improve awareness of particular issues within an article on the mobile web. We will do this by changing the visual styling of page issues.
So far, we have drafted a proposal on the design and implementation of the project. We were also able to run user testing on the proposed designs. The tests so far have positive results. Here is a quick summary of what we learned:
- The new treatment increases awareness of page issues among participants. This is true particularly when they are in a more evaluative/critical mode.
- Page issues make sense to readers and they understand how they work
- Readers care about page issues and consider them important
- Readers had overwhelmingly positive sentiments towards Wikipedia associated with learning about page issues
Our next step would be to start implementing these changes. We wanted to reach out to you for any concerns, thoughts, and suggestions you might have before beginning development. Please visit the project page where we have more information and mockups of how this may look. Please leave feedback on the talk page.
Tidy to RemexHtml
संपादनThe Parsing team will be replacing Tidy with RemexHtml at this wiki on 5 July 2018.
Some pages at this wiki use outdated HTML. This change may change the appearance of those pages. Special:LintErrors has a complete list of affected pages.

Consultation on the creation of a separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS
संपादन(कृपया आपल्या भाषेत भाषांतर करण्यास मदत करा)
Hi all,
I'm preparing a change in who can edit sitewide CSS/JS pages. (These are pages like MediaWiki:Common.css
and MediaWiki:Vector.js
which are executed in the browser of all readers and editors.) Currently all administrators are able to edit these pages, which poses a serious and unnecessary security risk. Soon, a dedicated, smaller user group will take over this task. Your community will be able to decide who belongs in this group, so this should mean very little change for you. You can find out more and provide feedback at the consultation page on Meta. If you are involved in maintaining CSS/JS code, or policymaking around adminship requests, please give it a look!
Thanks!

Enabling a helpful feature for Template editors
संपादनHello.
The team working on TemplateStyles at the Wikimedia Foundation would like to enable TemplateStyles on this wiki.
TemplateStyles is a feature to allow non-administrators to write and manage CSS styles for templates. It allows contributors who edit templates to separate content and presentation. A good web practice that makes it easier to manage the layout of templates. If you don't edit templates, this will not have any impact on your contributions.
TemplateStyles is useful for a few reasons.
- It makes it possible for templates to work better on mobile.
- It cuts out confusion on where to apply CSS rules.
- Editing CSS is currently limited to administrators, which is a major barrier to participation.
- All stylesheets must be loaded on all pages (whether they actually use the page or not), which wastes bandwidth and makes debugging style rules more difficult.
You can learn more about TemplateStyles on MediaWiki.org. Technical documentation is also available.
This is an optional feature and no one must use it, but template contributors are encouraged to do so! Please discuss and let us know if there are any concerns. If there are no concerns we will proceed to deploy the feature on the 9th of August.
Thank you.

- हा साचा वापरत असलेले आणखीन काही साचे आणणे बाकी आहे, एक दोन दिसात तेही आणीन मी, पण आता सध्याच्या परिस्थीत येथे चर्चा करावी असे वाटले. QueerEcofeminist "संदर्भ द्या! अगदी भांडतानासुध्दा"!!! ०१:२९, १ जानेवारी २०१९ (IST)

Multilingual Shared Templates and Modules
संपादनI recently organized a project to share templates and modules between wikis. It allows modules and templates to be “language-neutral”, and store all text translations on Commons. This means that it is enough to copy/paste a template without any changes, and update the translations separately. If someone fixes a bug or adds a new feature in the original module, you can copy/paste it again without any translation work. My bot DiBabelYurikBot can help with copying. This way users can spend more time on content, and less time on updating and copying templates. Please see project page for details and ask questions on talk page.
P.S. I am currently running for the Wikimedia board, focusing on content and support of multi-language communities. If you liked my projects like maps, graphs, or this one, I will be happy to receive your support. (any registered user group can vote). Thank you! --Yurik (🗨️) ११:५४, ११ मे २०१९ (IST)Wikidata Bridge: edit Wikidata’s data from Wikipedia infoboxes
संपादनSorry for writing this message in English - feel free to help us translating it :)
Hello all,
Many language versions of Wikipedia use the content of Wikidata, the centralized knowledge base, to fill out the content of infoboxes. The data is stored in Wikidata and displayed, partially or completely, in the Wikipedia’s language, on the articles. This feature is used by many template editors, but brought several issues that were raised by communities in various places: not being able to edit the data directly from Wikipedia was one of them.
This is the reason why the Wikidata Bridge project started, with the goal of offering a way to Wikipedia editors to edit Wikidata’s data more easily. This will be achieved by an interface, connected to the infobox, that users can access directly from their local wiki.
The project is now at an early stage of development. A lot of user research has been done, and will continue to be done through the different phases of the project. The next steps of development will be achieved by the development team working at Wikimedia Deutschland, starting now until the end of 2019.
In order to make sure that we’re building a tool that is answering editors’ needs, we’re using agile methods in our development process. We don’t start with a fixed idea of the tool we want to deliver: we will build it together with the editors, based on feedback loops that we will regularly organize. The first version will not necessarily have all of the features you want, but it will keep evolving.
Here’s the planned timeline:
- From June to August, we will build the setup and technical groundwork.
- From September to November 2019, we will develop the first version of the feature and publish a test system so you can try it and give feedback.
- Later on, we will test the feature on a few projects, in collaboration with the communities.
- We will first focus on early adopters communities who already implemented a shortcut from their infoboxes to edit Wikidata (for example Russian, Catalan, Basque Wikipedias)
- but we also welcome also communities who volunteer to be part of the first test round.
- Then we will reach some of the big Wikipedias (French, German, English) in order to see if the project scales and to address their potentially different needs.
- Even later, we can consider enabling the feature on all the other projects.
In any case, no deployment or big change will be enforced on the projects without talking to the communities first, and helping the template builders to prepare for the changes they will have to do on the infoboxes’ code.
If you want to get involved, there are several ways to help:
- Read and help translating the documentation pages
- Follow the updates and participate in the first feedback loop
- Talk about it with your local community
More ideas will be added on this page along the way
If you have any questions for the development team, feel free to ask them on the main talk page. You can also ask under this message, but if you expect an answer from me, please make sure to ping me.
Thanks for your attention, Lea Lacroix (WMDE) १८:३३, २४ जून २०१९ (IST)

Welcome back to the Editing newsletter.
Since the last newsletter, the team has released two new features for the mobile visual editor and has started developing three more. All of this work is part of the team's goal to make editing on mobile web simpler.
Before talking about the team's recent releases, we have a question for you:
Are you willing to try a new way to add and change links?
If you are interested, we would value your input! You can try this new link tool in the mobile visual editor on a separate wiki.

Recent releases
संपादनThe mobile visual editor is a simpler editing tool, for smartphones and tablets using the mobile site. The Editing team recently launched two new features to improve the mobile visual editor:
- Section editing
- The purpose is to help contributors focus on their edits.
- The team studied this with an A/B test. This test showed that contributors who could use section editing were 1% more likely to publish the edits they started than people with only full-page editing.
- Loading overlay
- The purpose is to smooth the transition between reading and editing.

Coming soon: FileExporter becomes a default feature on this wiki, making imports to Wikimedia Commons easier
संपादनSorry for posting in English. If you can help translate this text into your language, it would be highly appreciated.
The FileExporter and FileImporter extensions make moving files from a local wiki to Wikimedia Commons easier. Together they allow to move files with all their original data intact, while documenting the move in the version history. The feature originates in a top wish from the Technical Wishes survey on German Wikipedia.
The FileExporter has been a beta feature on first wikis, including this one, for a while now, and it’s available on all Wikimedia wikis since January 2019. Currently, 15,000 people on the Wikimedia projects have activated the feature, and more than 12,000 files were imported successfully with this new tool. The first version from June 2018 was improved continuously, based on feedback by its beta testers. Thanks to everyone who gave feedback!
Now, the FileExporter will become a default feature on the first few wikis, including this one. This means that as an auto-confirmed user on these wikis, you'll see a link “Export to Wikimedia Commons” on local file pages. If you click on this link, the FileImporter then checks if the file can in fact be moved to Commons, and whether any replacements need to be made. These checks are performed based on the wiki’s configuration file which is defined by the local community.
The planned date for this deployment is September 24th, 2019. Deployment on more wikis is planned for later this year. As always, feedback on this feature is very welcome on this talk page. -- Best, Johanna Strodt (WMDE) (चर्चा) १४:२९, २३ सप्टेंबर २०१९ (IST)

Talk pages project
संपादनThe Talk Pages Consultation was a global consultation to define better tools for wiki communication. From February through June 2019, more than 500 volunteers on 20 wikis, across 15 languages and multiple projects, came together with members of the Foundation to create a product direction for a set of discussion tools. The Phase 2 Report of the Talk Page Consultation was published in August. It summarizes the product direction the team has started to work on, which you can read more about here: Talk Page Project project page.
The team needs and wants your help at this early stage. They are starting to develop the first idea. Please add your name to the "Getting involved" section of the project page, if you would like to hear about opportunities to participate.
Mobile visual editor
संपादनThe Editing team is trying to make it simpler to edit on mobile devices. The team is changing the visual editor on mobile. If you have something to say about editing on a mobile device, please leave a message at Talk:VisualEditor on mobile.
- On 3 September, the Editing team released version 3 of Edit Cards. Anyone could use the new version in the mobile visual editor.
- There is an updated design on the Edit Card for adding and modifying links. There is also a new, combined workflow for editing a link's display text and target.
- Feedback: You can try the new Edit Cards by opening the mobile visual editor on a smartphone. Please post your feedback on the Edit cards talk page.
- In September, the Editing team updated the mobile visual editor's editing toolbar. Anyone could see these changes in the mobile visual editor.

Google Code-In will soon take place again! Mentor tasks to help new contributors!
संपादनHi everybody! Google Code-in (GCI) will soon take place again - a seven week long contest for 13-17 year old students to contribute to free software projects. Tasks should take an experienced contributor about two or three hours and can be of the categories Code, Documentation/Training, Outreach/Research, Quality Assurance, and User Interface/Design. Do you have any Lua, template, gadget/script or similar task that would benefit your wiki? Or maybe some of your tools need better documentation? If so, and you can imagine enjoying mentoring such a task to help a new contributor, please check out mw:Google Code-in/2019 and become a mentor. If you have any questions, feel free to ask at our talk page. Many thanks in advance! --Martin Urbanec १२:५८, ५ नोव्हेंबर २०१९ (IST)

संदर्भातील त्रुटी
संपादनकाही कालावधी पासून reFill 2 द्वारे संदर्भ भरत असता त्यात तारीखांच्या त्रुटी दिसत आहेत. मात्र पूर्वी असे दिसत नव्हते. या टूल द्वारे सुधारलेले सर्व संदर्भ नादुरुस्त दिसत आहेत व त्यात तारीख तपासा म्हणूनची सूचनाही झळकते आहे. उदा. म्हणून डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांच्याबद्दल व्यक्त झालेली मते या लेखातील संदर्भ पहावेत. कृपया ही त्रुटी सुधारावी, याने संदर्भ खराब सुद्धा दिसत आहेत. --संदेश हिवाळेचर्चा २०:००, ११ जुलै २०२० (IST)
- @Sandesh9822: Kindly remove extra comma. (,) after the month name. Example 20 जून, 2016 must be 20 जून 2016. Thank you --Tiven2240 (चर्चा) २०:३२, ११ जुलै २०२० (IST)
- @Tiven2240:
- माझा प्रश्न तोच आहे. reFill 2 द्वारे संदर्भ भरताना/सुधारताना हा कॉमा ( , ) आपोआप गाळला गेला पाहिजे. अर्थात reFill 2 उपकरणानेच परफेक्ट संदर्भ भरता आला पाहिजे. --संदेश हिवाळेचर्चा २३:५३, ११ जुलै २०२० (IST)
- @अभय नातू आणि Tiven2240: पुनः स्मरण.
- कृपया संदर्भ भरले जाणारे साचे सुधारणे गरजेचे आहे. तांत्रिक प्रचालक Tiven2240 यांनी सांगितलेले निदान उपयुक्त नाही, कारण प्रत्येकदा reFill किंवा दृश्य संपादन यांद्वारे संदर्भ भरणे आणि परत भरलेल्या संदर्भांतील ताराखांमध्ये एक एक करुन संपादन करणे हे किचकट व अव्यवहार्य काम आहे, शिवाय ज्या लेखांत १००-५०० संदर्भ जोडलेले आहेत तेथे कसे सुधार करायचे!? त्यामुळे संदर्भ साचाच्या मूळ ठिकाणीच योग्य तो बदल करावा व संदर्भ भरल्यानंतर पुन्हा तो सुधारण्याची गरज भासणार नाही असे विधायक बदल करावे, विनंती.--संदेश हिवाळेचर्चा १९:१५, १७ जुलै २०२० (IST)
