Tech News: 2024-37
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Feature news
- Starting this week, the standard syntax highlighter will receive new colors that make them compatible in dark mode. This is the first of many changes to come as part of a major upgrade to syntax highlighting. You can learn more about what's to come on the help page. [1][2]
- Editors of wikis using Wikidata will now be notified of only relevant Wikidata changes in their watchlist. This is because the Lua functions
entity:getSitelink()andmw.wikibase.getSitelink(qid)will have their logic unified for tracking different aspects of sitelinks to reduce junk notifications from inconsistent sitelinks tracking. [3]
Project updates
- Users of all Wikis will have access to Wikimedia sites as read-only for a few minutes on September 25, starting at 15:00 UTC. This is a planned datacenter switchover for maintenance purposes. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis in the coming weeks. [4]
- Contributors of 11 Wikipedias, including English will have a new
MOSnamespace added to their Wikipedias. This improvement ensures that links beginning withMOS:(usually shortcuts to the Manual of Style) are not broken by Mooré Wikipedia (language codemos). [5]

Restoring old infobox images
Hey, I hope you are doing well :) I wanted to please ask if you could please revert the infobox images for the following characters: Julie Cooper (EastEnders), Dawn Swann, Gus Smith, Simon Raymond, Joe Wicks (EastEnders), Zsa Zsa Carter, Fred Fonseca, April Branning and Kelly Taylor (EastEnders)? These were all changed without consensus by a now banned sockpuppet back in November/December 2023. If you could please restore them that would be really helpful.

- If they've been removed I may not be able to. I'm pretty busy at work this week but I'll try have a look later on 5 albert square (talk) 22:30, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
- Please no worries at all if not. I just remember you restoring some a few months ago so I thought I would ask. Genuinely though it is not urgent and not super important so please do not worry about it. DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 22:31, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
- Good news, managed to retrieve them all 5 albert square (talk) 20:36, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
