2025年第10期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻译版本。
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 所有已登入編輯者現在皆可在手機版網站編輯整個頁面。在工具列上的「更多」選單中點擊「编辑整页」即可。先前編輯者須啟用高级模式才能使用這項功能。 [7]
- 請介面管理員協助移除本地
MediaWiki:Common.css中帶有「 mw-ref」的已棄用Cite CSS碼。此全域搜尋列出了需清理的維基站點以及需移除的代碼，另可參考此範例。參閱CSS遷移项目頁面進一步了解如何提供協助。Cite腳註標記（「[1]」）現在由Parsoid渲染，不再需要上述的已棄用CSS。反向链接的CSS（「mw:referencedBy」）目前應維持不變。這項清理作業應不會給讀者帶來明顯變化。請在3月20日前協助移除這些代碼，若未及時處理，之後將由開發團隊代為移除。 - 現在，若在受連鎖保護的頁面加入文件（例如
[[File:MediaWiki.png]]），系統將不再限制對文件描述頁面的編輯，而僅限制文件新版本的上傳。反之，若嵌入文件描述頁面（例如{{:File:MediaWiki.png}}），對描述頁面的編輯將受連鎖保護限制。 [8][9] - 編輯者若想要將文件還原至較早版本，現在需要與上傳文件新版本相同的權限。系統現在會檢查「覆盖现存文件
(reupload)」或「覆盖自己上传的文件(reupload-own)」權限，並遵守連鎖保護。 [10][11] - 現在，管理員在使用Special:大量删除工具列出待刪除頁面時，可以選擇同時列出相關的討論頁和重定向頁面，而無需事後再手動處理。 [12]
- 前幾期提到單一用户登录（SUL）系統為配合瀏覽器對跨網域Cookie的限制，登入和帳號建立頁面將移至中央網域——這項更新將於3、4月向所有用户推出。團隊計劃於本週為Group0站點上的所有新帳號建立流程應用這項更新。參閱SUL3项目頁面了解最新時間表和更多細節。
- 自上週以來，部分介面圖示在頁面尚未加载完全時，錯誤顯示為黑色方塊（深色模式中則為白色）。本週將修正此問題。 [13]
- 已新建一個維基： 錫爾赫特語维基百科 (
w:syl:) [14] - 上週有23件社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，之前老舊版本的手機版Firefox瀏覽器無法正常加载圖片，現已修正此問題。 [15]

Growth Newsletter #33
[编辑]
A quarterly update from the Growth team on our work to improve the new editor experience.
This year, the Growth team is exploring ways to help more new account holders start editing—and do so constructively, meaning their edits are not reverted. Our latest experiments include:
- Gradual rollout of "Add a Link" at English Wikipedia – We are gradually introducing the "Add a Link" structured task to newcomers at English Wikipedia (T386029). This serves as a natural A/B test to measure its impact on activation, retention, and revert rates (T382603). Previous experiments on pilot wikis showed that "Add a Link" increases newcomer participation, particularly by helping them make constructive (non-reverted) edits.
- Testing in-article suggestions for first-time editors – Many new account holders want to contribute but don’t know where to start. To help, we’re piloting a feature that surfaces structured task suggestions directly in an article’s read view for brand-new editors (T385343). These suggestions will appear for logged-in users with no edits, providing a clear, simple way to begin contributing that is surfaced while they read.
Newcomers often struggle to find their place in Wikipedia’s collaborative environment. While experienced editors easily discover events like edit-a-thons and writing campaigns, newcomers often miss out.
- To bridge this gap, we launched the Community Updates module for the Newcomer Homepage. This module is disabled by default, allowing Community Admins to decide how (or if) to use it.
- If your community hosts events, consider setting up a Community Update to engage and welcome newcomers! Learn more on Diff. To configure, visit Special:CommunityConfiguration.
Community Configuration is now available across all wikis, including non-Wikipedia projects (T383910). Community Configuration allows admins to customize various features like Growth features and Automoderator for their communities, and more recently the Babel extension now allows admins to modify configuration:
- Babel customization – Admins can now configure Babel settings (T374348), including category naming, automatic category creation, and more. See an example on Wikimedia Commons.
- Upcoming configurable features – Projects exploring community configuration options include: Incident Reporting System (T374113) and Cite backlinks (T378807).
Mentors play a key role in guiding new editors. If you’re interested in mentoring, or turning mentorship on at your wiki, check out the Mentorship FAQ
- Starting February 17, 100% of new accounts at English Wikipedia will be assigned a mentor (T384505).
- At Spanish Wikipedia, on 50% of newcomers get a mentor. Experienced contributors are encouraged to join mentorship so that Spanish Wikipedia can provide a mentor to all new users.
Looking Ahead
[编辑]In the coming months, we will continue balancing maintenance work—such as deprecating EditGrowth Config (T367574) and migrating Statslib (T359352) — with user-facing improvements that support new editors and foster the next generation of contributors.

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2025-11
[编辑]The winner this Translation of the week is
Please be bold and help translate this article!
Smoky (Los Angeles, 1931 o 1932 - Los Angeles, aprile 1934), occasionalmente scritto Smokey, è stato un cane che divenne la mascotte del villaggio olimpico estivo del 1932 e, successivamente, dell'evento generale. Pur non essendo oggi riconosciuto dal CIO, è stato, seppur non in modo ufficiale, la prima mascotte olimpica dei Giochi, oltre che a essere attualmente l'unica a essere stata un animale vero. Le successive edizioni non ebbero mascotte, dovendo aspettare i X Giochi olimpici invernali di Grenoble nel 1968 per ritrovarne una ufficialmente riconosciuta, lo sciatore stilizzato Schuss, allora non considerato ufficiale ma successivamente riconosciuto come tale.

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2025-12
[编辑]The winner this Translation of the week is
en:Amazonas, o maior rio do mundo
(pt:Amazonas, o maior rio do mundo) (es:Amazonas, o maior rio do mundo)
(pt:Amazonas, o maior rio do mundo) (es:Amazonas, o maior rio do mundo)
Please be bold and help translate this article!
Amazonas, o maior rio do mundo (lit. 'Amazon: The Greatest River in the World') is a 1922 Brazilian silent documentary film produced in 1918 by Silvino Santos. It is a black-and-white film that portrays life in the Amazon rainforest. Completed in 1920, it is considered one of the oldest cinematic records of the Amazon. It was presumed lost in 1931 and only rediscovered in 2023 at the Czech Film Archive.
Silvino Santos produced the work over three years using sophisticated cinematic techniques, which led it to be deemed of "immense artistic value" by Le Monde. It has also been described as the "Holy Grail of Brazilian silent cinema" by The Guardian.

2025年第12期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻译版本。
本週要聞
- 每年春秋分前後，維基媒體基金會的網站可靠性工程團隊例行執行資料中心伺服器切換，將所有流量從主要伺服器導向備用伺服器。這個半年一次的程序確保了我們在面臨危機時，可以隨時使用備援資料中心。多虧了Listen to Wikipedia工具，您可以實際聽到切換的過程：開始之前，您會聽到源源不絕的編輯聲音；然後，當系統進入短暫的唯讀階段時，聲音會停止數分鐘，切換完成後才會恢復。更多關於此次切換的背景和細節，請參閱Diff文章。如果您想聆聽即將到來的伺服器切換，請於3月19日 14:00 UTC收聽各維基的聲音。
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 經改良的內容翻譯工具面板現已供10個維基百科使用，並即將在所有維基百科推出。有了統一的面板，桌面裝置使用者現在可以翻譯條目章節；探索並存取以主題為基礎的條目建議篩選器（起初僅限行動裝置）；從維基專題和編輯活動中探索並存取社群定義的清單篩選器，也稱為「收藏集」（Collections）。
- 維基共享資源引入新的檔案分類選擇系統：如果某分類含有一個或多個子分類，點擊箭頭即可在表單中展開子分類清單，以便選取正確分類。父分類名稱會持續顯示在頂部，可隨時返回父分類。這應該可以減少志願者修復/建立新分類的工作量。這項變更同樣適用於行動裝置。這些變更是上传向导改進計畫的一部分。
- 社群技術團隊正在徵求維基社群參與試用多重封鎖功能以及更新後的Special:封禁頁面，預定3月底進行。多重封鎖可讓管理員同時對同一使用者施加多種不同類型的封鎖。如果您是管理員或監管員，並希望我們與您的社群討論參與試行的事宜，請在專案討論頁留言。
- 3月25日開始，編輯團隊將在12個維基百科站點測試編輯檢查的新功能：多重檢查。在這些維基中，一半的新手在編輯時會看到所有參考檢查，而另一半則如同往常只看到一個。此測試旨在觀察編輯者在單一編輯階段中看到多個（且相關的）參考檢查時，是否會感到困惑或氣餒。在這些維基中，有顯示參考檢查的編輯所使用的標籤將被簡化，因為一筆編輯中可能會顯示多個標籤。Phabricator工單記錄了變更的標籤。 [18]
- 全域提醒機器人是一項通知使用者其臨時權限即將到期的服務，現已支援在訊息標題中使用權限群組的本地化名稱。請翻譯人員參閱說明文件和現有譯文清單，檢查其語言是否需要更新或新增譯文。
- Special:全域设置中的性別設定——用來設定軟體在介面訊息中應該如何稱呼您——現在可以如預期般覆寫本地預設值。 [19]
- 上週有26件社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，Android版維基百科App修正了使用者以多種語言瀏覽和搜尋時發生的錯誤。 [20]

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2025-13
[编辑]The winner this Translation of the week is
Please be bold and help translate this article!
Ala al-Din Ali (January 1353 – August 1380) was the third Sultan of the Eretnids ruling from 1366 until his death. He inherited the throne at a very early age and was removed from administrative matters. He was characterized as particularly keen on personal pleasures, which later discredited his authority. During his rule, emirs under the Eretnids enjoyed considerable autonomy, and the state continued to shrink as neighboring powers captured several towns.

[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻译版本。
本週要聞
- 維基媒體基金會正在徵求您對下年度目標與關鍵結果（OKR）草案的反饋意見，這些OKR將影響基金會的下一個財政年度（從7月開始）的產品與技術優先事項。「目標」是廣泛的高層次領域，而「關鍵成果」則是追蹤目標成功與否的可衡量方式。請在討論頁分享您的意見，語言不限，最好在4月底之前提出。
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- CampaignEvents擴充功能將於2025年4月部署至多個維基（詳情請見部署計畫），團隊已開始與確定部署的維基社群接觸。該擴充功能提供了在維基上籌辦、管理和推廣協作活動（如Event活動、編輯松、維基專題）的工具。該擴充功能有三個工具：活動報名、協作清單和邀請清單。該擴充功能目前已部署至13個維基百科（包括中文、英語、法語、西班牙語等），以及維基數據。若有任何問題或請求，請至擴充功能討論頁或Phabricator（加上
#campaigns-product-team標籤）。 - 3月31日當週開始，維基站點將能夠自行設定哪些使用者群組可以在活動報名功能中檢視非公開報名者，這是CampaignEvents擴充功能的一部分。預設情況下，活動籌辦人員和本地管理員將能夠檢視非公開報名者。這改變了目前的行為，即只有活動籌辦人員才能檢視非公開報名者。維基社群在Phabricator請求變更配置（加上
#campaigns-product-team標籤）來變更預設配置。過往活動的參與者可隨時取消報名。 - 有自訂
MediaWiki:Sidebar的維基的管理員應檢查其之中是否列有特殊页面項目。若沒有，管理員應使用 * specialpages-url|specialpages來加入該項目。帶有預設側邊欄的維基將在4月看到該链接從工具欄移至側邊欄。 [21] - Minerva外觀（手機版網站）將重要通知和常规通知整合進一個鈴鐺圖示
中。Minerva長期存在一個錯誤，僅在有未讀「重要通知」時才會顯示新通知標示。現已修正此問題。未來在Minerva中，無論您有未讀的重要通知或常规通知，鈴鐺圖示上方皆會顯示未讀通知數量。 [22] - 上週有23件社群提交的工單得到解決。
近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者
- 視覺化編輯器引入了新的用戶端勾點，供開發者在整合視覺化編輯器目標生命週期時使用。該勾點應該會取代現有的生命週期相關勾點，並且在不同平台之間更加一致。此外，新的勾點也將適用於全文編輯以外的視覺化編輯，讓小工具也能與討論工具（DiscussionTools）中的編輯器互動。編輯團隊打算棄用並最終移除舊的生命週期勾點，因此團隊很關注任何新勾點未涵蓋的用例，如有相關資訊，歡迎在工單中與團隊分享。
- 使用
mw.Api這一JavaScript函式庫的開發者，現在可以使用userAgent參數來識別使用該函式庫的工具：var api = new mw.Api( { userAgent: 'GadgetNameHere/1.0.1' } );。如果您有在維護小工具或使用者腳本，請務必設置使用者代理（user agent），這將有助於函式庫和伺服器的維護，以及區分合法與非法的流量。 [23][24] - 本週稍晚代码更新細節： MediaWiki

The Chilembwe uprising was a rebellion against British colonial rule in Nyasaland (modern-day Malawi) which took place in January 1915. It was led by John Chilembwe, an American-educated Baptist minister. Based around his church in the village of Mbombwe in the south-east of the colony, the leaders of the revolt were mainly from an emerging black middle class. They were motivated by grievances against the British colonial system, which included forced labour, racial discrimination and new demands imposed on the African population following the outbreak of World War I.

2025年第14期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻译版本。
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 編輯團隊正在開發新的編輯檢查：華辭檢查（Peacock check）。這項檢查的目的是在使用者編輯維基頁面時找出非中立詞句，以便在他們發布編輯前通知並建議其修改。華辭檢查仍在早期階段，團隊正在尋求社群的意見：在此Phabricator工單中，團隊正在收集他們目前所研究的語言版本的維基內方針、用來標記非中立條目的模板，以及編輯摘要的用語（術語與關鍵字）。要參與其中，您可以編輯工單中的表格、在工單留言，或是直接傳訊息給Trizek (WMF)。
- 所有維基站點的單一使用者登入系統皆已更新，登入與帳號建立頁面已移至中央網域。這可讓使用者登入流程兼容瀏覽器對跨網域Cookie的限制，這些限制會讓某些瀏覽器的使用者無法維持登入狀態。
- 上週有35件社群提交的工單得到解決。
近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者
- 3月31日開始，MediaWiki介面團隊將開始限量發布已生成的OpenAPI規格，以及以SwaggerUI為基礎的MediaWiki REST API沙盒體驗。團隊邀請來自特定非英語維基百科社群（中文、阿拉伯語、德語、法語、希伯來語、國際語、荷蘭語）的開發者，以他們的偏好語言審閱說明文件並試用沙盒。除此之外，沙盒與OpenAPI規格也將在測試維基的REST沙盒特殊頁面上提供給偏好使用英語的開發者。在預覽期間，MediaWiki介面團隊也邀請開發者分享您的體驗。預覽期約為兩週，之後沙盒和OpenAPI規格將提供給所有維基站點使用。
- 本週稍晚代码更新細節： MediaWiki
深入了解
- 有時，一行小小的程式碼變更，卻有著重大的意義：這項變更意味著多年來，我們第一次能夠從單一座核心資料中心執行所有提供給
maps.wikimedia.org（專門為維基媒體站點提供多語言地圖的主機）的堆疊，我們每次執行資料中心切換時都會進行這項測試。這項進展非常重要，因為它確保即使其中一座資料中心發生意外，我們仍能持續提供網站服務。這項變更歸功於兩位開發人員的大量工作，他們將地圖堆疊的最後一個組件移植到Kubernetes，我們在那裡能更有效率地分配資源，從而使單一資料中心能承受更多流量。這項工作涉及許多複雜步驟，因為這個軟體及其所使用的軟體函式庫需要許多逾期已久的升級。這類工作讓維基媒體的基礎架構更具永續性。
會議與活動
- 2025年5月14日至16日，2025年春季MediaWiki使用者與開發者研討會將於美國桑達斯基舉行，並同時線上舉行。研討會將圍繞不同產業公司使用MediaWiki軟體的情況進行討論，並鼓勵及吸引新使用者。活動報名及演講報名現已開始，可前往研討會網站報名。

An earthquake affected Myanmar on 5 May 1930 with a moment magnitude (Mw ) 7.4. The shock occurred 35 km (22 mi) beneath the surface with a maximum Rossi–Forel intensity of IX (Devastating tremor). The earthquake was the result of rupture along a 131 km (81 mi) segment of the Sagaing Fault—a major strike-slip fault that runs through the country. Extensive damage was reported in the southern part of the country, particularly in Bago and Yangon, where buildings collapsed and fires erupted. At least 550, and possibly up to 7,000 people were killed. A moderate tsunami struck the Burmese coast which caused minor damage to ships and a port. It was felt for over 570,000 km2 (220,000 sq mi) and as far as Shan State and Thailand. The mainshock was followed by many aftershocks; several were damaging. The December earthquake was similarly sized which also occurred along the Sagaing Fault.

2025年第16期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻译版本。
本週要聞
- 本週稍晚，預設的縮圖尺寸將從220px增至250px。這將改變所有維基頁面的顯示方式。部分社群多年來一直要求更改預設縮圖尺寸，但過去因技術限制而未能實現。 [26]
- 檔案縮圖現在以特定尺寸儲存。如果頁面指定的縮圖尺寸不在標準尺寸（20、40、60、120、250、330、500、960）之列，那麼MediaWiki將會選擇最接近的較大縮圖尺寸，但會請瀏覽器將其縮小到所要求的尺寸。這在視覺上不會有任何變化，但使用者可能會載入稍大一點的圖片。在頁面中使用縮圖時，如果縮圖尺寸不是很重要，請選擇其中一種標準尺寸，以避免額外的瀏覽器縮小步驟。 [27][28]
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 維基媒體基金會正在開發名為Edge Uniques的系統，該系統可用於實現A/B測試，幫助抵禦DDoS攻擊，並讓我們更容易了解維基媒體網站的訪客數量。有了Edge Uniques，基金會可以更有效率地打造能幫助讀者的工具，讓讀者更容易找到他們要找的東西。
- 為了提升使用者安全性，現在有一小部分的登入嘗試將需要輸入一次性密碼，該密碼將以電子郵件寄送。請檢查您的帳號是否設有有效的電子郵件地址，且該地址已被系統確認。 [29]
- 「您有沒有興趣參加一個簡短的調查，以改善您的維基上的巡查和回退工具？」這個問題將從下週開始在7個維基的近期變更和監視清單頁面上向使用者提出。內容維護工具團隊想更了解那些：檢視維基媒體專案的新編輯，並判斷這些編輯是否遵守專案方針的工作。
- 4月15日，
query.wikidata.org將不再支援完整的維基數據圖表。該日之後，學術文章將可透過 query-scholarly.wikidata.org取得，而維基數據上託管的其他資料則可透過 query.wikidata.org端點取得。這是預定的維基數據圖表拆分計畫的一部分，該計畫於2024年9月公布。詳情請見維基數據頁面。 - 季刊維基媒體App電子報新期數發布。內容涵蓋了維基百科行動應用程式的更新、實驗與改進。
- 上週有30件社群提交的工單得到解決。

近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 自4月15日起，維基函數已與達戈姆巴語維基百科整合。這是第一個能夠從維基函數呼叫函數並在條目中使用的專案。函數能接受一個或多個輸入，並將其轉換成預期的輸出，例如：相加兩數、換算單位、計算時間跨度或轉換大小寫。有了維基函數，使用者只需呼叫一個穩定的全域函數即可達成目的，無需使用本地模板。 [30]
- 新增了一種lint錯誤：空标题（說明文件）。Linter擴充功能旨在找出頁面中需要或可以修正的wikitext語句，並提供指引，說明這些語句的問題以及如何修正。 [31]
- 上週有37件社群提交的工單得到解決。
近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者
- 繼在HuggingFace上發布之後，由維基媒體企業服務（Wikimedia Enterprise）開發的「Structured Contents」資料集現在也可在Kaggle上取用。這項Beta計畫著重於讓維基媒體資料更易於機器讀取，以供大量重複使用。這次，他們在開放資料集社群已在使用的平台上發布這個測試版，以尋求回饋，幫助改善產品，利於將來的廣泛發布。參閱更多關於整個Structured Contents專案，以及第一個可自由使用的版本。
- 本週沒有MediaWiki版本更新。
會議與活動
- 編輯團隊與機器學習團隊邀請有興趣的志願者參加視訊會議，討論最新的編輯檢查：華辭檢查。華辭檢查可在編輯者鍵入文字時偵測「華而不實」、「過度宣傳」或「非中立」的語句。我們鼓勵經常接觸新手的編輯者、協助修正此類文字的編輯者，或對我們在專案中使用AI的方式感興趣的編輯者參加。會議將於2025年4月28日 18:00-19:00 UTC在Zoom上舉行（查看您的當地時間）。
