MediaWiki 1.37.0-rc.2 is ready for testing
by Sam Reed 10 Nov '21

10 Nov '21

I'm pleased to announce the immediate availability of MediaWiki 1.37.0-rc.2, the second release candidate for 1.37.x. Download links are at the end of the e-mail. The tag has been signed and pushed to Git. This is not a final release, and should not be used for production websites. Known issues are tracked in Phabricator on the release workboard [1]. As with every release of MediaWiki, a large number of changes have landed in the last six months (over 1700 commits since 1.36.0 was cut), and you should read over the preliminary release notes as part of assuring yourself of areas that may have issues with your configuration, your skins, and/or your extensions. As always, please try out the release candidate in a test environment and do report any issues that you discover. Please use the #MW-1.37-Release [2] tag in Phabricator when reporting issues specific to this release, to make sure that we find them as quickly as possible. It is expected that this will be the final release candidate, and that MediaWiki 1.37 will become final in late November 2021, though the date may slip if blockers are identified. Preliminary release notes: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core/+/REL1_37/RELEASE-NOTES-1.37 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Release_notes/1.37 Changes since 1.37.0-rc.1: * (T295173) Re-add wikimedia/normalized-exception to vendor. * Remove wikimedia/testing-access-wrapper, psr/simple-cache, psr/http-factory from vendor. * (T295191) ApiQuerySiteinfo: Fix "rightsinfo"/"url" when $wgRightsPage is set. * (T212428) Allow populateContentTables to continue when there are bad blobs.

Please take this 20 minute Semantic MediaWiki survey
by Mark A. Hershberger 09 Nov '21

09 Nov '21

Dear Semantic MediaWiki community member, We are writing to provide an update on the current situation of the Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) extension as well as to ask you to fill out a survey that will help to define the path forward for this extension. Over time, SMW has grown to incorporate many features and sophisticated functionality. It is also accompanied by many additional semantic extensions that add further capabilities. SMW is built on top of MediaWiki, which itself is evolving to a more modern code base. SMW does not currently have a thriving developer community, so some decisions must be made on how to maintain and/or evolve its code base going forward. This could involve refactoring or rebuilding SMW. The decision on how to proceed requires a plan with an analysis on the current and anticipated use of SMW and related semantic extensions. To get a clear picture on the use of SMW we kindly ask you to respond to this survey : [ https://survey.kdz.eu/index.php/622841 | https://survey.kdz.eu/index.php/622841 ] Your response is highly appreciated as it will shape the future of SMW. Your input plays a key role in the analysis and recommendations to ensure a bright future for SMW. We will inform you on the results and further steps on this site. Regards, MediaWiki Stakeholders’ Group Mark A. Hershberger (President)

About TimedMediaHandler extension - video still
by Karsten Hoffmeyer 02 Nov '21

02 Nov '21

Hi, I am using the TimedMediaHandler extension on MediaWiki 1.35 to embed mp4-files on wiki pages. Everything works however the video still ist taken from the middle of the video rather than using the beginning. I am not sure how to make the extension use the beginning? Any suggestions? Thank you and cheers
