    Wikidata-logo-en.svg
    Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
    • Development
      • You can now add a title to a query visualisation by adding #title:YourTitle to your SPARQL code (phab:T225883, example query with a title)
      • Added a new constraints type to indicate that a certain Property should only be used on Lexemes of a certain language (phab:T200689)
      • Working on not checking the format constraints via SPARQL to take that load off the SPARQL endpoint and make it technically better (phab:T176312)
      • Working on making the API-Sandbox not suggest edits to real Items (phab:T219215)

    Wikidata-logo-en.svg
    Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
    • Other Noteworthy Stuff
      • Wikidata Community/Diversity 2021 Survey has been published. The results are meant to serve as a baseline to see how the community might (not) change in the future.
      • WikidataCon 2021: A sustainable future for Wikidata. Information about "the conference theme, its three-day program structure and a special project on diversity taking place before the conference itself".
      • The call for candidates for 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board elections has begun on June 9. The last date to apply is June 29, 2021.
    • Development
      • Working on no longer using the Query Service to evaluate Constraints Checks regular expressions (this should make our checks faster and allow for further improvements) (phab:T176312)
      • Changing the rate limits for assigning Item IDs further, which should result in even fewer Q-IDs being skipped in the future (phab:T284538)
      • Finalizing the concepts for a tool to help work on mismatches between Wikidata's data and other databases/websites/...

    Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
    • Other Noteworthy Stuff
      • Interlanguage links now work for multilingual Wikisource. phab:T275958
      • User:Nikki/LexemeEntitySuggester.js now supports searching for senses for the translation property.
      • The call for candidates for 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board elections has begun on June 9. The last date to apply is June 29, 2021.
      • Since the beginning of the month, phabricator tickets about language codes (and names of languages) were reviewed and triaged to better reflect their content and current status. Some work was done to better identify the steps for such changes, highlight and address bottlenecks and system issues. Patches for a few codes were contributed and are being released. Phabricator "Language codes" workboard provides an overview, phab:T284856 attempts to identify maintenance steps and phab:T284276 determine turn-around times. phab:T284808 should finally close a gap in termbox language handeling. A way to better address some or all aspects of changes of language codes applicable to Wikipedia editions still needs to be found. Don't hesitate to request the addition or update of language names (e.g. the name of Dutch in Danish) or missing language codes, notably for monolingual strings (see Help:Monolingual text languages).

    Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
    • Development
      • Mismatch Finder: We started building the foundation of the place that will store the mismatches between Wikidata and other databases/catalogs/...
      • Continued work on migrating the checks of regular expressions for constraints from SPARQL to a better solution to take that load off of the SPARQL endpoint (phab:T176312)
      • Made it possible to show language links from multilingual Wikisource to the other language versions of Wikisource (phab:T275958)
      • Added a new constraint type to indicate that a certain Property should only be used on Lexemes with a specific language (phab:T200689)
      • Fixed a weird issue with suggesters popping back up when they shouldn't (phab:T284219)
      • Invalid data will not be handled better in RDF outputs (phab:T285131)
      • Working on lowering the rate limit at which a misbehaving bot can waste new Item IDs to further reduce the percentage of skipped Item IDs (phab:T284538)
      • Working on not suggesting real Item IDs in the API sandbox to avoid accidental edits by people who think it is not making real edits (phab:T219215)
      • Working on reducing the time it takes between entering a value in a new statement and being able to save the statement (phab:T281669)
      • Improved documentation of the usage tracking aspects in API help pages. Usage tracking is an internal mechanism to track which article on Wikipedia etc uses which data from an Item on Wikidata. (phab:T283040)
      • Language codes for monolingual strings "gsw-fr", "ykg", "wya", "osa-latn" were made available: Alsatian, Tundra Yukaghir, Wendat, Osage (phab:T262922, phab:T252198, phab:T283364, phab:T265297)
      • The English name for language code "crh" and the Swedish name for "fa" were corrected (phab:T240350, phab:T281702)
      • Lexeme language codes ha-arab, sux-latn, sux-xsux, gsg, tlh-piqd, tlh-latn, bfi, pwn, enm were added. That is Hausa in Arabic script, Sumerian in cuneiform and Latin-script, German Sign Language, Klingon in pIqaD and Latin script, British Sign Language, Paiwan and Middle English. (phab:T282512, phab:T279557)
      • It was determined that language codes can be activated for Wikidata while being blocked for use on Incubator (phab:T273705), this to avoid projects such as a "British English Wikipedia"
      • Language code "es-419" for Latin American Spanish has been available for labels and descriptions for quite some time (phab:T230786)
      • A possibly confusing Russian mis-translation of the name of the language code for "multiple languages" (mul) is being reviewed (phab:T245927)
      • "en-simple:" can be used instead of "simple:" to link to Simple Wikipedia. Query Services outputs "en-simple", not "simple" for sitelinks to Simple Wikipedia (phab:T283149).
      • There was some discussion about the creation of a language code "en-in" for monolingual strings, but "en-in" as interface language seems to be preferred (phab:T212313)

    Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
    • Other Noteworthy Stuff
      • User:SuccuBot has made its 100.000.000th edit. It is the first user account in Wikidata to reach this milestone.
      • In the frame of a Google Summer of Code project a new tool, called WikidataComplete was created. The tool smoothly integrates in the Wikidata UI and proposes new statements extracted by machine learning algorithms. Editors are asked to either approve or reject them. To activate it check here for a short tutorial check here. Any feedback is welcome here.
    • Development
      • Continued work on the Mismatch Finder. We are now working on creating the page where mismatches will be listed for review.
      • Worked on support for "separators" parameter for distinct value constraints (phab:T277855)
      • Made it possible to restrict constraints to certain entity types (phab:T269724)
      • Added a new constraint type to ensure that the Item has a label in a particular language (phab:T195178)
      • Added a button for the Query Builder to query.wikidata.org to make the Query builder discoverable (phab:T276210) - integration in the example dialog is still in progress (phab:T280229)
      • We started work on some behind-the-scenes improvements to the way Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects are notified about a change that affects their articles. (They need this notification so the article can be purged and show the latest data from Wikidata again. It is also required for showing the edit in the watchlist and recent changes on those wikis. This should have no visible impact for editors but is needed maintenance work.

Feel free to add more relevant articles to the list. The event is not restricted to any single Wikimedia project.

    How we will see unregistered users[തിരുത്തുക]

    Hi!

    You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

    When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

    Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

    If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

    We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

    Thank you. /Johan (WMF)
