Hi,
It would be great if a few pairs of eyes could take a look at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/News/2013/34 before I send it to
translators, to check that I haven't missed anything super-important
or misunderstood what the commits are about.
The tech newsletter is aimed at non-expert Wikimedians whose knowledge
of English may be limited, so the language may seem vague or naive to
developers. If you see factual errors, please correct them (or let me
know directly), but please keep the language simple :)
Many thanks for your help.

Note there's two issues with file redirects. The one fixed also
applies to local images in addition to foreign issues. The fixed issue
is that redirects on commons didn't start to work until 24 hours after
they are created. The issue that still remains is after a file moves,
someone has to edit the page (or purge the page) of the page using the
redirected name, before the image works again. (I've submitted a patch
for that -
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/80135/ but its still
pending review).
