Subject: Wikimedia contributors survey is here: share your feedback
Hi everyone,
The Wikimedia Foundation is asking for your feedback in a survey. We want
to know how well we are supporting your work on and off wiki, and how we
can change or improve things in the future. The opinions you share will
affect the current and future work of the Wikimedia Foundation.
If you are volunteer developer, and have contributed code to any pieces of
MediaWiki, gadgets, or tools, please complete the survey. It is available
in various languages and will take between 20 and 40 minutes to complete.
*Follow this link to the Survey:* https://wikimedia.qualtrics.
com/jfe/form/SV_5ABs6WwrDHzAeLr?aud=DEV
If you have already seen a similar message on Phabricator, Mediawiki.org,
Discourse, or other platforms for volunteer developers, please don't take
the survey twice.
You can find more information about this survey on the project page
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Engagement_Insights/About_CE_>
and see how your feedback helps the Wikimedia Foundation support
contributors like you. This survey is hosted by a third-party service and
governed by this privacy statement
<https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Community_Engagement_Insights_2018_Sur…>.
Please visit our frequently asked questions page
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Engagement_Insights/Frequently_as…>
to find more information about this survey.
Feel free to email me directly with any questions you may have.
Thank you!
Edward Galvez

Subject: [Wikidata] Improvements on the search results
To: "Discussion list for the Wikidata project." <
wikidata(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Hello all,
Some improvements have been made by the Search team at WMF on Special:Search
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:Search> (the page that is loaded
when you type something in the search field and press enter, for example).
- The string that you typed is highlighted in bold in the label of the
results
- The number of bytes is no longer displayed, instead you can see the
number of sitelinks and statements
- The code is now using the same indexing as completion search, which
should improve relevancy and better control over ranking
If you have any question or find a bug, feel free to ping user:Smalyshev
(WMF) <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Smalyshev_(WMF)>.
Cheers,
