지난 토론

2007년 8월 16일 이전 2010년 7월 16일 이전 2012년 4월 30일 이전 2013년 7월 4일 이전 2015년 9월 30일 이전 2017년 1월 10일 이전 2018년 3월 29일 이전

문서 훼손입니다.

법원장, 지원장은 해당 법원을 소개하는 것입니다. 중요한 인물(지방법원장 등 임명된 사람 등)이라면 별도로 문서를 만들 수 있겠지만 그게 아닌 이상 이름 자체를. 여태까지 다른 분들도 해왔던 것을 님이 독단적으로 이럴 수는 없습니다. 비단 법원장 뿐만 아니라 다른 문서도 마찮가지구요ㅇ(토론)

이 편집에 대해서 토론을 시작해 주셔서 감사합니다. 참고해야할 선례나 나아가 관련된 정책과 지침을 알려주시면 다시 판단해 보겠습니다. --케골(토론) 2018년 3월 28일 (수) 17:29 (KST)

혹시 같은 분입니까? 입장을 기다리는 의미에서 더이상 편집하지 않고 있었는데 정작 당사자는 아무런 입장을 밝히지 않고 다른 분이 말하시네요. 사용자 모임에서 말한 것도 아니고 개인 사용자문서인데. 그런데 이게 토론할 사항이라도 된느지 의문입니다. 모든 것을 담지 않고 중요한 사람만 담는다? 중요하다는 근거는 뭔가요? 그럼 기관장 중에서 중요한 인물로 기능한 사람만 골라서 적어야 합니까? 그것 자체가 황당한 일입니다ㅇ (토론)

같은 사람입니다. 위키백과의 토론은 해당문서의 토론문서, 사용자 토론문서, 관련된 위키 프로젝트, 그리고 사랑방 어디든 관계없이 이루어지고 있어서, 이곳에 의견을 제시해 주신 것도 잘못된 것은 아닙니다. 위키백과:위키백과에_대한_오해#위키백과는_정보를_무분별하게_모으는_곳이_아닙니다.를 보시면 왜 이런 목록들을 좋지 않게 보는지 아실 수 있으리라 생각합니다. 토론해 주셔서 감사합니다. --케골(토론) 2018년 3월 29일 (목) 09:35 (KST)

링크된 부분은 여기에 적용될 사항이 아닌듯 싶습니다. 모든 것을 담는 곳이 아니라는 것이 어떻게 여기에 적용된다는 것인지 이해할 수 없습니다 역대 법원장은 해당 법원의 연혁과 같은 것입니다. 일반적으로 회사나 단체의 연혁을 보면 그 단체의 장이 취임, 이임하는 것을 표시하지 않습니까?ㅇ (토론) 2018년 3월 30일 (금) 09:17 (KST)

위키백과는 해당 기관의 백서나 웹 사이트가 아닙니다. 백과사전입니다. 독자가 무엇을 읽기 원하는지 먼저 고려되어야 합니다. --케골(토론) 2018년 3월 30일 (금) 09:28 (KST)

그건 님의 주관 아닌가요? 객관을 요구하면서 주관을 말하는 모순을 어떻게 이해해야 합니까? 애초에 "무분별한 정보를 모은다"라는 말 자체가 전혀 객관적이 않습니다. 님이 진리이십니까? 님이 위키백과 백과사전의 기준을 설정하십니까? 무엇을 원하는지에 대해서 님의 판단이 우선합니까? 되돌리기를 한 현재의 제주지방법원 문서와 제가 편집했던 문서, 과연 위키백과를 이용하는 사람들이 원하는 백과사전은 무엇일지 충분히 예측할 수 있지 않습니까? 님의 논리대로라면 현재의 기관 문서 자체를 삭제해야 합니다. 실제로 별 내용이 없다는 이유로 삭제를 햇었던 관리자가 있었습니다.(간첩단 사건) 없으면 채우면 되는데 이를 이유로 삭제하는 것은 온당하지 않지요? 그때 관리자의 삭제에 대해서 누가 제지를 했습니까? 그게 정당한 삭제였다면 제주지방법원 등의 문서 당장 삭제해야 하지 않겠습니까? 왜 유독 이것만 골라서 되돌리는지요? 이건 저에 대하여 의도적인 악의가 아니라면 설명할 수 없지 않습니까?ㅇ (토론)

저를 '님'이라고 부르지 말아주세요. 제 이름은 케골입니다. 이의를 제기하는 편집자가 있어 토론의 여지가 있는 편집을 강행하는 것은 예의에 벗어나는 행동이라고 생각합니다. 저는 개인적인 문제를 제기하는 것이 아니라 위키백과의 가독성을 떨어뜨리는 무분별한 이름의 나열에 문제를 제기하고 있습니다. 관계없는 방향으로 토론을 진행하지 말기를 바랍니다. 중립적인 입장을 견지해야하는 백과사전에 홍보를 위해 저런 편집을 하는 개인과 기관들에 대해서 어떻게 위키백과가 대응하여 어떻게 중요한 정보를 중요하게 읽히게 해야하는지 명확한 원칙을 세우는 것이 필요하다고 생각합니다. --케골(토론) 2018년 4월 5일 (목) 09:38 (KST)

(님이라고 하는 것은 토론이나 기타 대화에 있어 상대방에 대한 기본적인 존중의 의미를 담고 있습니다. 무엇이라 불러야 할지 마땅하지 않을 때 일반적으로 중립적인 의미에서 님이라고 통칭하고 있으며 더욱이 케골 님은 여러 이름으로 되어 있어서 혼란스러웠습니다. )저는 분명히 사:Ryuch으로 들어왔습니다.) 무분별한 이름의 나열이라? 이렇게 한다면 애초에 경력 나열도 되돌리기 편집을 하셔야 합니다. 레드헌터라는 영화문서가 없다는 것을 발견하면서 문서를 만들기 위해 다른 영화 문서를 살펴봤더니 이것이야 말로 '쓸데없는' 문서 아닌가요? 이런 문서가 백과사전 기준에 적합하다고 할 수 있습니까? 기관 문서에서 기관장 이름이 없어서, 심지어 지난 기관장 이름만 몇개가 있는 것을 발견하고 보충 편집을 한 것입니다. 이게 문제가 될 이유가 있습니까? 채워지지 않은 것을 채웠더니 대체 무슨 토론의 여지가 있다는건지 의문입니다. 중립적이지 않을 여지가 어디 있을까요? 가독성이라는 말은 단순히 길다고 해서 적용할 수 있는 문제가 아니잖습니까? 예전에 문재인 등 전,현직 대통령 문서에서처럼 서술하는 내용이 지나치게 길어졌을 때 가독성이 떨어진다고 말하여 논란 문단을 별도로 독립한 것, 이런 경우에나 가독성을 말할 수 있지 단순히 시간이 흘러 기관장이 이임을 하게 되면서 업데이트 된다고 하여 가독성 떨어진다고 말할 수는 없지 않습니까? 무분별한 이름의 나열이라는 문제제기를 한 사람은 누군가요? 그 사람이 직접 이의를 제기해야지 이런식이라면 결국 위키백과를 친목의 장으로 전락하는 것이 아닙니까? 얼마전에 관리자가 특 정 사용자 편든다는 말이 나왔듯 공개적인 방식이 아닌 방법으로 한다면 신뢰의 문제가 제기될 수 있지 않습니까? 그 사용자의 악의적인 문제제기가 아니라고 말할 수 있습니까? (쓰다보니까 길어졌네요. 이렇게 되는 것이 가독성이 떨어진다고 말할 수 있지 않을까요? 토론문서이니 다르겠지만 이렇게 문서에 서술한다면 가독성이 떨어지게 되겠지만 기관장 명단을 첨부한다고 해서 가독성 떨어진다고 말할 수는 없습니다.)ㅇ (토론) 2018년 4월 5일 (목) 09:54 (KST)

호칭에 관한한 상대방이 원하는대로 불러주시는 것이 예절에 맞는 것으로 생각합니다. 가능하면 향후 그렇게 해 주시기를 부탁드립니다. 위키백과에서 제 이름은 케골이고, 기계가 편리하게 다룰 수 있는 계정명은 Ryuch입니다. 케골이라고 불러주시기 바랍니다. --케골(토론) 2018년 4월 5일 (목) 09:58 (KST)

기관장을 역임한 것이 홍보입니까? 그럼 대법원장, 헌법재판소장 헌법재판관 경찰청장 검찰총장 이런 것도 홍보에 해당합니까? 이건 공직이라는 명분이라도 있지만 그럼 문학상 언론상이나 기타 상을 수상한 것은 어떻게 되죠? 연예인, 운동선수 같은 경우는 상업적인 활동에 관계되어 있습니다. 이들 문서야 말로 홍보가 아닌가요? "이의를 제기하는 편집자가 있어 토론의 여지가 있는 편집을 강행하는 것은 예의에 벗어나는 행동이라고 생각합니다." 이 말은 문제가 있어 되돌리기를 했으니 그런 편집을 하지 말라는 협박으로 밖에 들리지 않습니다. 문서내용을 없앴으면 그에 대한 정당한 입장을 제시해야 할 의무가 있습니다. 그럼에도 오히려 저더러 토론을 시작하여 주세요?라는 것은 무엇인지 모르겠습니다. 토론을 개시한 것은 데이터를 없앤 케골 님 아니었습니까? 개시한 사용자 측에서 그 사유를 제대로 말하셔야 합니다. ㅇ (토론) 2018년 4월 5일 (목) 10:06 (KST)

협박으로 들렸다면 그것은 제가 더 친절하지 못한 탓이네요. 위키백과에 저는 싸움을 하러 오지 않으니, 오해하지 마시기를 바랍니다. 제가 시간을 할애하여 토론을 하고 있는 이유는 이 사안에 대하여 명확한 지침이 없기 때문에 이를 개선하고자 하는 것입니다. Backtothe님이 말씀하시는 것이 아주 부당한 것이 아닙니다. 충분히 그렇게 생각할 수도 있습니다. 그러니, 여러 사람들의 지혜를 모아서 공감할만하고 일관적인 기준을 만드는 것이 필요합니다. Backtothe님의 기여를 흠잡아 인신공격을 할 의사가 전혀 없습니다. 더구나 집단적으로 그렇게 할 이유는 더욱 더 없습니다. 관련 토론을 위키프로젝트토론:대한민국의_행정기관#기관장_목록_본문_포함 문단에서 진행하면 향후 편집자들을 위한 좋은 기준이 마련될 것으로 기대를 하고 있습니다. 그렇게 해 주시면 감사하겠습니다. 더 이상 이곳 제 토론문서에서 토론하는 것은 원치 않습니다. --케골(토론) 2018년 4월 5일 (목) 10:17 (KST)

Tech News: 2018-15

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• Some pages have templates that describe problems with that article. There is now more information for mobile readers and what is wrong with the article and how they could help fix it. [16]
• You can now thank users for many more actions than edits to a page. This was one of the top ten requests in the Wishlist Survey last year. [17]
• The sort order of categories will have errors for a short time starting Monday 9 April (UTC). We are upgrading versions of an internationalisation library (ICU) and using a script to update the database. This will take between a few hours and a few days depending on wiki size. You can read more details. [18]
• Tag filter titles will now work better on wikis where the tag filter title is in a language that is written in another direction than the language of that wiki. This could for example be an English title (written from left to right) on a Hebrew or an Arabic wiki (written from right to left). [19]

Problems

• The bookmark icon for saved filters on the recent changes page disappeared because of new icon changes. This has now been fixed. [20]
• For a week in March rollbacks got both the rollback and the undo tag on the recent changes page and other pages where you see tags. This has now been fixed. [21]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 10 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 11 April. It will be on all wikis from 12 April (calendar).
• Patrolled edits now have three states instead of two. Recent changes filters are updated to show unpatrolled, autopatrolled and manually patrolled edits. [22]

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 10 April at 18:30 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 11 April at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• The iOS and Android apps will get synced reading lists later in April.

Tech News: 2018-16

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Changes later this week

• Profiling statistics for an abuse filter tell how often edits match the filter. The statistics for the abuse filters were reset after 10000 actions. Wikis can now decide to reset it more or less often. They can file a phabricator task to do so. [23]
• Abuse filters will now treat integers and floats more precisely. For example, 5/2 was rounded down to 2 but will now be 2.5 and 2*4 will be the integer 8 and not the floating-point number 8.0. Division values are the only ones changed. For the rest only strict comparisons (=== and !==) will be affected leaving the values unchanged. [24][25]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 17 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 18 April. It will be on all wikis from 19 April (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 17 April at 18:30 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 18 April at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• The new PDF renderer could not create PDFs from books. Books are in this case collections of pages on a Wikimedia wiki. PediaPress will take over development of the books-to-PDF function. [26]
• Pywikibot will no longer support Python 2.7.2 and 2.7.3. [27]
• Volunteer developers can fill out the Wikimedia Communities and Contributors survey. The last day is April 22 (UTC). This is a third-party service survey. See the privacy statement.

Your feedback matters: Final reminder to take the global Wikimedia survey

Hello! This is a final reminder that the Wikimedia Foundation survey will close on 23 April, 2018 (07:00 UTC). The survey is available in various languages and will take between 20 and 40 minutes. Take the survey now.

If you already took the survey - thank you! We will not bother you again. We have designed the survey to make it impossible to identify which users have taken the survey, so we have to send reminders to everyone. To opt-out of future surveys, send an email through EmailUser feature to WMF Surveys. You can also send any questions you have to this user email. Learn more about this survey on the project page. This survey is hosted by a third-party service and governed by this Wikimedia Foundation privacy statement.

Recent changes

• The parameter for unpatrolled edits in recent changes filters changed name. You might need to update saved filters and links. [31]

Problems

• We are migrating wikis from Tidy to Remex. Because of a bug the 250 wikis which do not yet use Remex were switched on 23 April. This is two months early. This meant that pages with broken wikitext showed wrongly to readers. The bug was undone the next day. You can help fix broken wikitext to avoid this problem when your wiki switches. Tidy will be removed on all wikis before July 2018. You can follow the process on Phabricator. [32]

Changes later this week

• You will be able use CodeMirror in the 2017 wikitext editor on all wikis. CodeMirror helps with syntax highlighting. It has previously been a beta feature and only available on wikis with scripts that are written from left to right. [33]
• When an administrator blocks someone they will have a calendar they can use to choose when the block ends. This is to make it easier to pick a specific date. [34]
• You can soon turn on the Performance Inspector in the 편집 section in your preferences. It shows information about the performance of pages. This could be the size of modules in the page, how many CSS selectors are defined on the page and how many are used, or the size of the images on the page. This tool is intended to help editors fix pages that load slowly. [35]
• There is a new abuse filter function called equals_to_any. You can use it to check if its first argument is equal (===) to any of the following ones. For example you can use it to check if the page's namespace is amongst a given set of values in a more compact way than you could earlier. You can read more on mediawiki.org.
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 1 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 2 May. It will be on all wikis from 3 May (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 1 May at 18:30 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 2 May at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• The Wikimedia Cloud Services team is working on a new project called Toolhub. The goal is to make it easier for Wikimedians to discover software tools they can use. You can leave feedback on the talk page or email jharewikimedia.org to leave private feedback.
• All wikis with fewer than 100 high-priority linter errors in all namespaces will switch to use the Remex parsing library. This is to replace Tidy. It will happen on 2 May. Other wikis will be recommended to switch soon when they have fixed the errors that must be fixed. Wikibooks wikis with fewer than 100 high-priority linter errors in the main namespace will switch on 9 May. Tidy will be removed on all wikis before July 2018. [36][37][38]

Tech News: 2018-22

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• You can now use global preferences on most wikis. This means you can set preferences for all wikis at the same time. Before this you had to change them on each individual wiki. Global preferences will come to the Wikipedias later this week. [46][47]
• It is now easier for blocked mobile users to see why they were blocked. [48]
• Wikidata now supports lexicographical data. This helps describe words.
• There is now a checkbox on Special:ListUsers to let you see only users in temporary user groups. [49]
• Some rare invisible Unicode characters have recently been banned from page titles. This includes soft hyphens (U+00AD) and left-to-right (U+2066) and right-to-left (U+2067) isolate markers. Existing pages with these characters will soon be moved by a script. [50]
• There's a new Wikimedia Foundation team to support the Wikimedia technical communities. It's called the Technical Engagement team. Most of the team members did similar work in other teams before this. [51]

Problems

• Some translatable pages are showing old translations instead of latest ones. The cause of this issue has been fixed. We will update all pages automatically to show the latest translations. [52]

Changes later this week

• There will be a new special page named PasswordPolicies. This page gives information about the password rules for each user group on that wiki. [53]
• A new way to see moved paragraphs in diffs is coming to most wikis. This is to make it easier to find the moved paragraphs and the changes in them. [54]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 29 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 30 May. It will be on all wikis from 31 May (calendar).
• Wikis can enable Citoid to provide automatic reference look-up in the visual editor and the 2017 wikitext editor. This is complex. The tool will now disable itself if the configuration isn't correct. It has warned about this in the JavaScript console since February. Check that your wiki is configured correctly. You can ask for help if you need it. [55]

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 29 May at 18:30 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 30 May at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• Content Translation drafts which have not been updated in over a year will be removed. This allows other users to translate those articles. [56]
• A survey is collecting information on what users think about how Wikimedia wiki pages are loaded. This information could be used in future development. [57]
• Some wikis will switch to use the Remex parsing library. This is to replace Tidy. It will happen on 30 May and 13 June. Wikis with fewer than 100 linter issues in the main namespace in all high-priority linter categories will switch. This includes Wikidata. Tidy will probably be removed on all wikis in the first week of July. [58][59]

Tech News: 2018-23

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• The MonoBook skin has been optimised for mobile devices. It now looks different. [60]
• Planet Wikimedia collects blogs about Wikimedia. It will now use the Rawdog feed aggregator to do this instead of Planet. [61][62]
• Redirect links in Special:WhatLinksHere now link to the original page and not the target page. This was done earlier and changed the used messages on some pages. This was a problem for wikis that customized the message. A new change fixed this by using the old messages with one more parameter for customization. Wikis that already changed their customized messages will have to move the customization back again. [63]

Problems

• You will not be able to edit some wikis between 06:00 and 06:30 UTC on 13 June. You can see if your wiki is one of them.

Tech News: 2018-24

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• In the Wikipedia app for Android or iOS users can create reading lists. The reading lists can be seen on different devices if you are logged in to your account. There is now a browser extension so you can add pages to your reading list from a web browser. At the moment it works with Firefox and Chrome. [67]
• There is a new version of Pywikibot. Pywikibot is a tool to automate tasks on MediaWiki wikis. [68]

Problems

• The MonoBook skin was changed to make it work better for mobile users. This caused some problems. The change was rolled back to fix them. The new version is now back on the wikis. MonoBook users can opt out from the new responsive design. [69]

Changes later this week

• The new filters for edit review tools and interface for watchlists will leave beta. For most wikis this will happen on 18 June. For the rest it will happen on 25 June. [70][71]

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 12 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 13 June. It will be on all wikis from 14 June (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the Readers Web team IRC office hour. There you can discuss tools to contribute on the mobile web for the existing MediaWiki skins. The meeting will be on 18 June at 16:00 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 12 June at 18:30 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 13 June at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• You will be able to move local wiki files to Commons and keep their original data intact. This is planned to come to the first wikis in June.

Tech News: 2018-25

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• Syntax highlighting has been a beta feature on Wikimedia wikis with text written from left to right. It is now a normal feature. It is based on CodeMirror. [72]

Changes later this week

• There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 19 June at 18:30 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 20 June at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• Some old web browsers will not be able to read the Wikimedia wikis. This is because they use an insecure way to connect to them. This means that we get less security for everyone else too. This affects about 0.08% of all traffic to the Wikimedia wikis. This affects for example those who read Wikipedia on a PlayStation 3. [73][74]
• The new filters for edit review tools and interface for watchlists will leave beta. Because there is no new MediaWiki version this week it will happen on 25 June for most wikis. For the rest it will happen in early July. [75][76]
• All wikis that have not already done so will switch to use the Remex parsing library on 5 July. This is to replace Tidy. You can help fix remaining errors. [77]

Tech News: 2018-28

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• WebM video files have smaller file size but still be of the same quality. Creating WebM files will take longer time. [83]
• The new filters for edit review tools and interface for watchlists will leave beta. This was supposed to already have happened but was delayed. For most wikis this will happen on 9 July. For the rest it will happen on 16 July. [84]
• All wikis now use the Remex parsing library instead of Tidy. This could cause errors. You can help fix the errors. [85]

Problems

• When you rolled back an edit it could get both the Rollback and Undo tags. This has been fixed. [86]
• Rollbacks from autopatrolled users were not marked as patrolled. This has been fixed. [87]

Changes later this week

• When you edit a link in the visual editor there will be two separate buttons to change which page the link goes to (target) or its text (label). [88][89]
• On the mobile version you can find a link to an editor's contributions from their user page. Now this will work even if they haven't created a user page. [90]
• When you edit a discussion on the mobile version you sometimes get your signature automatically added. This will now not happen if you have already added a signature manually. This is to avoid double signatures. [91]
• Structured discussions toolbars will have more style options. [92]
• When you look at Wikimedia code in Gerrit there will be a new interface. It is on by default for new users. This is also true for developers. This is to make it easier to understand what is happening. [93]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 10 7월. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 11 7월. It will be on all wikis from 12 7월 (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 10 7월 at 18:30 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 11 7월 at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• Today all administrators can edit CSS and JavaScript for the entire wiki. There will be a new user group for editing CSS and JavaScript. Administrators will no longer automatically be able to do this. This is because it is a security risk when all administrator accounts can edit JavaScript even if they never plan to or do not know how it works. You can read more. [94]
• Page previews will be on by default for new accounts. [95]

Tech News: 2018-35

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• You can now see moved paragraphs in diffs in the mobile view. It also works on all languages in the desktop view. [114]
• Bureaucrats on all Wikimedia wikis can now remove the interface admin user right. [115]

Problems

• Some diffs show lines in the wrong order. The developers are working on fixing it. [116]

Changes later this week

• The message you see when you thank a user will change. This is to make it easier to understand. [117]
• AWB will stop adding using AWB in the edit summary. Instead it will add a tag that says AWB. [118]
• Some abuse filter variables have changed. They are now easier to understand for non-experts. The old variables will still work but filter editors are encouraged to replace them with the new ones. You can find the list of changed variables on mediawiki.org. They have a note which says Deprecated. Use ... instead. An example is article_text which is now page_title. [119]
• Abuse filters can now use how old a page is. The variable is page_age. [120]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 August. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 August. It will be on all wikis from 30 August (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 28 August at 18:30 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 29 August at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• Because of a data centre test you will be able to read but not edit the wikis for up to an hour on 12 September and 10 October. This will start at 14:00 (UTC). You might lose edits if you try to save during this time. The time when you can't edit might be shorter than an hour. You can read more about this.

Tech News: 2018-36

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• There is a new user right for users who can edit CSS and JavaScript for the entire wiki. Before this all admins could edit CSS and JavaScript. This was a security risk. This group is called interface administrators. Administrators can delete user CSS and JavaScript pages. [121][122]
• There will be an A/B test on the Wikipedia mobile website. It starts this week. It tests how we show templates that show information about an article. The test will last two weeks. [123][124]
• You can now use different CSS rules for different skins when you edit templates. This is because of TemplateStyles. [125]
• wp10 in ORES is now called articlequality. [126]
• When you get a new message on your talk page you get a yellow message in the toolbar. The preference to show or not show this has been removed. [127]

Problems

• UploadWizard had problems with campaigns. Users could not upload files. This has now been fixed. [128]
• You can get a notification when a link is made to a page you created. This has not worked since June. It was fixed last week. [129]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 4 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 5 September. It will be on all wikis from 6 September (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 5 September at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• The Wikimedia Foundation Readers department will work on advanced mobile editing. You can read more about this and other things they plan to work on over the next year. You can also see the presentation.
• The RelatedSites extension will be removed from Wikivoyage.
• Unused projects on the Wikimedia Cloud virtual private server will be removed. This will happen in October. Projects can be marked if they are being used. [130]

최근 바뀜

• 시각편집기를 이용해 틀을 추가하거나 편집할 때 입력 박스가 과도하게 컸던 점을 수정해, 입력 박스의 크기를 작게 했습니다. 여러분이 박스를 클릭하면 박스는 텍스트에 맞도록 크기가 변할 것입니다. [131]

문제점

• 몇몇 편집 차이 보기에서 줄들이 잘못된 순서로 보이는 문제가 있었으며, 지난주에 해결되었습니다. [132]
• 여러분이 열람하고 있는 위키에서 다른 위키의 알림을 읽은 것으로 처리하는 기능이 간혹 작동하지 않는 문제가 있었습니다. 동작을 수행한 위키에서는 읽은 것으로 표시되나 다른 위키에서는 변경 사항이 적용되지 않은 것으로, 현재는 수정되었습니다. [133]
• <maplink> 코드가 버그로 인하여 며칠 동안 작동하지 않았습니다. 현재는 수정되었습니다. [134]
• 몇몇 틀에서 사용되는 Tursetic이 그동안 편집하는 자신의 사용자 이름이 아닌 그 바로 전의 편집자의 이름으로 저장되는 문제가 해결되었습니다. 그러나 이미 저장된 편집은 자동으로 수정되지 않으므로 수동 수정이 필요합니다. [135]

• 여러분은 IRC에서 열리는 기술 조언 회의에 방문할 수 있습니다. 회의 중에 자발적으로 봉사하는 개발자들이 여러분께 조언을 구할 수 있습니다. 회의는 9월 12일 15:00 (UTC)에 시작됩니다. 어떻게 방문하는지에 대해서는 이 페이지를 참고하세요.

다음 변경 사항

• 개발자들은 모바일 폰에서도 위키가 더 잘 작동되도록 노력하고 있습니다. 현재 모바일

버전에서 내용을 쉽게 읽을 수 없게 하는 문제점들의 목록을 작성 중에 있으며, 여러분은 목록에 문제점을 더 추가하고 다른 사용자에게 도움을 요청할 수 있습니다.
