Recent changes
- The number of active users listed by
{{NUMBEROFACTIVEUSERS}}and on Special:Statistics will now only include Wikidata edits as activity on Wikidata and not on other wikis too. [6] - Previously you could create wiki links starting with two colons. Now you need to use one colon. [[::File:X.jpg]] now has to be [[:File:X.jpg]]. There is now a new Linter category. You can see a list on Special:Linterrors/multi-colon-escape. The Linter extension helps you find technical errors in articles. You can read more about using Linter. [7]
Problems
- You will not be able to edit or upload files to Commons for around 30 minutes on 11 October. This will start at 06:00 UTC. This is because of work to let Commons show 3D models. [8]
Changes later this week
- The font in the edit window is monospace by default. Today you can change preferences to another font family or use "the browser default" instead of monospace. Switching to the browser default has only changed the font on Macs. The option to use browser default will be removed this week. [9]

Dette er en notis for å informere om prosesser i en galakse langt langt borte i Hollywood.
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
- When you edit a template with the visual editor it follows the template's
formatconfiguration on how to save it. You can now change the format in more powerful ways if your wiki wants it. [10][11] - The TwoColConflict extension is a new way to solve edit conflicts. It makes it easier to copy and paste the relevant text to the text field. It has been a beta feature for the last five months. You can now try out the new interface on a page where you will actually get simulated edit conflicts. You can give feedback to the developers.
Problems
- There is a problem with recent changes pages and your watchlist that show a large number of pages. Until it is fixed, Wikidata edits will not be shown on recent changes or in your watchlist on Commons or Russian Wikipedia. If necessary, Wikidata edits will be removed from all wikis. [12]
- Notifications are not working for some actions. For example some users don't get a notification when they are mentioned. The developers are working on fixing this. [13]
- Users on some wikis could not change their preferences. This has now been fixed. [14]
Changes later this week
- Editors and readers who still use Internet Explorer 8 on Windows XP will not be able to use Wikipedia from 17 October. Internet Explorer 8 on Windows XP can't connect securely to the wikis. When we allow them to do so it means that we get less security for everyone else. If you use Internet Explorer 8 on Windows XP you can install Firefox 52 ESR instead. Around 0.1% of the traffic to the Wikimedia wikis comes from Internet Explorer 8 on Windows XP. [15]
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 17 October. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 18 October. It will be on all wikis from 19 October (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 October at 19:00 (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 October at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Støtte for ukrainsk lagt til i tilleggsfunksjonen for transkripsjon fra kyrilliske språk rediger
Hei, jeg har nå lagt til støtte for ukrainsk i tilleggsfunksjonen for transkripsjon fra kyrilliske språk. Dette er nyttig om du for eksempel skriver artikler om ukrainske personer, vet hvordan navnet skrives på det lokale språket, men ikke er helt sikker på hvordan det bør skrives på norsk. Merk at norsk skrivemåte vanligvis er forskjellig fra skrivemåten på engelsk, tysk, fransk og andre språk man ofte oversetter artikler fra.
Se Hjelp:Transkripsjon-kyrillisk for mer om denne tilleggsfunksjonen og hvordan du kan installere den. Merk at dersom du allerede bruker tilleggsfunksjonen, og ukrainsk ikke dukker opp i listen over språk, så kan det hjelpe å skru den av og så på igjen.
Si gjerne fra på diskusjonssiden min dersom noe ikke fungerer som forventet. Hilsen Kjetil_r 18. okt. 2017 kl. 21:39 (CEST)

Challenge: Finland 100 år rediger
6. desember 2017 feirer Finland 100 år som selvstendig nasjon. For å markere dette organiserer Wikimedia Finland i november en internasjonal skrivekonkurranse for wikipedianere over hele verden. Målet er å forbedre hundre utvalgte artikler om Finland og finner på så mange språk som mulig. Temaene spenner fra fotballstjernen Jari Litmanen til finske saunaer, fra Tove Jansson til Borgå lantdag. Listen over de utvalgte artiklene finnes på engelska her, på finska her
For å delta, opprett en brukerkonto på Wikipedia (hvis du ikke har en enda) og meld deg på konkurransen på denne siden. Det blir priser til vinnerne, og heder og ære til alle andre.
Welcome to participate ! --Tappinen (diskusjon) 22. okt. 2017 kl. 17:39 (CEST)
