- Some users have a problem with the watchlist. Some changes in categories make the watchlist a blank page. The developers are working on this. Until this is fixed you can try some things that have helped other editors if you have this problem. You can turn on
Ocultar categorização de páginasin your watchlist preferences. You can turn offListagem expandida de todas as mudanças às páginas vigiadas, não apenas das mais recentesin your watchlist preferences. You can remove problematic categories from Special:EditWatchlist/raw. [85] - There was a problem with the visual editor for several days. You could not save edits that triggered a CAPTCHA. This would for example be when a new user added external links in references. This was fixed on 2 May. [86]
Changes this week
- When you edit you can switch between the visual editor and the wikitext editor. This works if the wiki you edit has the visual editor. The menu will now say
Visual editingandSource editinginstead ofSwitch to visual editingandSwitch to code editing. This is because it was confusing when the menu said you could switch to the editor you were already using. [87] - The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 May. It will be on all wikis from 11 May (calendar).
Meetings
- You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 9 May at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.
Future changes
- You will be able to get a notification when a page you created is connected to a Wikidata item. This will come to Wikivoyage on 9 May. If there are no problems it will come to most Wikipedias on 30 May. It will come to other projects and English, French and German Wikipedia later in the summer. It will be opt-in for existing users and opt-out for new users. [88][89]
- Markup that looks like code for language variants might need to be fixed. If
-{is used in transclusions or web addresses it has to be escaped appropriately. You can use-<nowiki/>{for transclusions and%2D{in web addresses. A transclusion could for example be when you use-{in a template:{{1x| sad :-{ face }}. This is because of some code fixes to the preprocessor and affects all wikis. [90][91]

Editing News #1—2017[editar código-fonte]
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
Did you know that you can review your changes visually?
In visual mode, you will see additions, removals, new links, and formatting highlighted. Other changes, such as changing the size of an image, are described in notes on the side.
Click the toggle button to switch between visual and wikitext diffs.
The wikitext diff is the same diff tool that is used in the wikitext editors and in the page history. You can read and help translate the user guide, which has more information about how to use the visual editor.
Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor Team has spent most of their time supporting the 2017 wikitext editor mode which is available inside the visual editor as a Beta Feature, and adding the new visual diff tool. Their workboard is available in Phabricator. You can find links to the work finished each week at mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings. Their current priorities are fixing bugs, supporting the 2017 wikitext editor as a beta feature, and improving the visual diff tool.
Recent changes[editar código-fonte]
- A new wikitext editing mode is available as a Beta Feature on desktop devices. The 2017 wikitext editor has the same toolbar as the visual editor and can use the citoid service and other modern tools. Go to Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures to enable the ⧼Visualeditor-preference-newwikitexteditor-label⧽.
- A new visual diff tool is available in VisualEditor's visual mode. You can toggle between wikitext and visual diffs. More features will be added to this later. In the future, this tool may be integrated into other MediaWiki components. [92]
- The team have added multi-column support for lists of footnotes. The
<references />block can automatically display long lists of references in columns on wide screens. This makes footnotes easier to read. You can request multi-column support for your wiki. [93] - You can now use your web browser's function to switch typing direction in the new wikitext mode. This is particularly helpful for RTL language users like Urdu or Hebrew who have to write JavaScript or CSS. You can use Command+Shift+X or Control+Shift+X to trigger this. [94]
- The way to switch between the visual editing mode and the wikitext editing mode is now consistent. There is a drop-down menu that shows the two options. This is now the same in desktop and mobile web editing, and inside things that embed editing, such as Flow. [95]
- The Categorias item has been moved to the top of the Opções da página menu (from clicking on the "hamburger" icon) for quicker access. [96] There is also now a "Templates used on this page" feature there. [97]
- You can now create
<chem>tags (sometimes used as<ce>) for chemical formulas inside the visual editor. [98] - Tables can be set as collapsed or un-collapsed. [99]
- The Carácter especial menu now includes characters for Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics and angle quotation marks (‹› and ⟨⟩) . The team thanks the volunteer developer, Tpt. [100]
- A bug caused some section edit conflicts to blank the rest of the page. This has been fixed. The team are sorry for the disruption. [101]
- There is a new keyboard shortcut for citations:
Control+Shift+Kon a PC, orCommand+Shift+Kon a Mac. It is based on the keyboard shortcut for making links, which isControl+KorCommand+Krespectively. [102]
Future changes[editar código-fonte]
- The team is working on a syntax highlighting tool. It will highlight matching pairs of
<ref>tags and other types of wikitext syntax. You will be able to turn it on and off. It will first become available in VisualEditor's built-in wikitext mode, maybe late in 2017. [103] - The kind of button used to Mostrar previsão, Mostrar alterações, and finish an edit will change in all WMF-supported wikitext editors. The new buttons will use OOjs UI. The buttons will be larger, brighter, and easier to read. The labels will remain the same. You can test the new button by editing a page and adding
&ooui=1to the end of the URL, like this: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Sandbox?action=edit&ooui=1 The old appearance will no longer be possible, even with local CSS changes. [104] - The outdated 2006 wikitext editor will be removed later this year. It is used by approximately 0.03% of active editors. See a list of editing tools on mediawiki.org if you are uncertain which one you use. [105]

Recent changes
- You can now use ISBNs to automatically generate citations in the visual editor. This works on wikis that have enabled Citoid. [106]
- The Two Column Edit Conflict View is available as a beta feature on all wikis. It is a new interface for the edit conflict resolution page. [107]
Problems
- The
mediawiki.utillibrary does not load automatically any more. Your Special:MyPage/common.js may use it. If you have technical problems that started a couple of weeks ago you can try addingmw.loader.using( 'mediawiki.util' ).done(function(){as the first line in the file and});as a last one. Tech News wrote about this in the 2017/18 issue. [108]
Changes this week
- The RevisionSlider extension will be a default feature on all wikis. RevisionSlider is an easier way to move between changes in the page history. It has been a default feature on German, Arabic and Hebrew Wikipedia and a beta feature on all wikis. You will be able to turn it off in your preferences. [109]
- There is no new MediaWiki version this week.
Future changes

This is because of some code fixes to the preprocessor and affects all wikis. You can now see the full list of wikis with this problem and help fix them to avoid that things break later this month. You might find false positives. You can read more about what to fix. [112][113]
Older unreported changes
- Your Meta user page is shown on all wikis where you don't have a local user page. You can now add the magic word
__NOGLOBAL__to your Meta user page to stop this. [114][115]

Inquérito confidencial: Perfil dos wikipedistas na língua portuguesa[editar código-fonte]
Estimado(a) colega wikipedista Fúlvio,
Sou investigador social, na Universidade do Minho, e estou a estudar o perfil dos wikipedistas da Wikipédia em português.
Agradecia imenso a sua participação neste estudo inédito. É confidencial. Os resultados serão apenas apresentados em forma de estatística.
Estabeleço consigo o compromisso de partilhar aqui os resultados da pesquisa, assim que estes possam ser publicados.
☺️👍 Obrigado(a)

Olá Fúlvio! O artigo H. James Kutscka, editado por você anteriormente, está marcado para eliminação semirrápida, na modalidade "sem fontes há mais de um ano e sem interwikis" (i.e. WP:ESR-SIW). Caso não concorde com a proposta de eliminação, basta editar a página, remover o aviso e salvá-la, desde que justifique, no sumário de edição e/ou na página de discussão do artigo, por que não considera válida a proposta. Procure adicionar referências ao artigo, para que atenda à Política de Verificabilidade e não se enquadre mais em WP:ESR-SIW. Se ninguém discordar da proposta, após passados 7 dias, o artigo poderá ser eliminado.
Caso não deseje receber este tipo de aviso, basta incluir seu nome nesta lista. Lechatjaune msg 13h47min de 20 de maio de 2021 (UTC)
Avisos inconvenientes de ESR-SIW[editar código-fonte]
Olá, tudo bem?
Em junho, a Lista de Descadastro dos avisos de ESR-SIW ultrapassou o patamar de 50 inscritos. Creio que seja contraproducente haver uma regra obrigando avisar os editores, só para eles se sentirem importunados e se descadastrarem do aviso. Se muita gente se incomoda e se descadastra, acaba sendo uma regra de não avisar, na prática.
Bem, eu gostaria, e talvez também você, de rever a regra de avisar TODOS os editores, a fim de que os avisos se tornem mais relevantes, e, assim, a lista de descadastro encolha, tornando efetiva a regra de avisar.
Penso que a forma mais óbvia de tornar os avisos mais relevantes seria desconsiderar os editores que realizaram apenas edições menores no artigo em questão. Assim, quem fez grande número de edições em milhares de artigos com ferramentas automáticas/semiautomáticas (Huggle, AWB, bot, HotCat, FastButtons, ou o que seja) não será inundado de SPAM, isto é, de avisos sobre artigos nos quais, se miraram os olhos por mais de 1 segundo ao longo de toda a vida, foi muito.
Daí estou realizando uma consulta: essa mudança lhe apraz? Seria suficiente para você se descadastrar da lista de descadastro? Se não, que mudança lhe agradaria e te levaria a remover seu nome de lá? Se chegarmos todos nós (eu e os 51 inscritos na lista) em algum acordo, se tornará em proposta na Esplanada. Mr. Sand. ❧ Ano ⓬ 21h20min de 14 de junho de 2021 (UTC)
