Has the parser just been changed with regards to tildes (~~~~) inside
HTML comments? It appears they used to be ignored, and are now
suddenly being replaced en masse the next time someone edits the page
(and can't be easily reverted - it just changes the sig to the
reverter's instead). See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_creation/2006-06-02-ear…
for an example.
I distinctly remember there was a way to add a title to a special page
simply by entering in a URL, then adding the title to the wiki edit
field, and then saving. The new "writing a new special page" how-to is
very confusing - and it wants me to write PHP to get the title to show
up. There was an easier way...
I can't find this how-to anywhere- though I'm sure it used to exist. FX
can you walk me through how you've added a wiki page title to a special
page?
Thanks!

That page seems to have changed, it now just has a pointer to an
article about writing an extension which really doesn't seem to build
a special page.
I just figured out how to build a new special page which is like the
Uncategorized pages page, but looks at the Image namespace. I wrote it
up at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Writing_a_new_special_page

I'm currently trying to adapt several gadgets that are meant for wikis using the Monobook/Vector skins to the Monaco skin, and so far, I've managed to successfully port over the UTC Clock gadget and Sandbox page gadget to Monaco, but aside from those I've been having trouble since, frankly, my knowledge of Javascript/JQuery is slim and I'm not familiar with all the variables used in writing user scripts. I've fairly decent with CSS style sheets, but I still need help with Javascript, so does anyone know of some good resources I could look into, preferably tailored for writing scripts on MediaWiki?
Also, if anyone wants to see what I have done so far (and have released publicly), the wiki I have been testing my live gadget/user script code on is here:

Hey all,
This is a quick note to highlight that in six weeks' time, the REL1_39
branch will be created for MediaWiki core and each of the extensions and
skins in Wikimedia git, with some (the 'tarball') included as sub-modules
of MediaWiki itself[0]. This is the first step in the release process for
MediaWiki 1.39, which should be out in November 2022, approximately
six months after MediaWiki 1.38.
The branches will reflect the code as of the last 'alpha' branch for the
release, 1.39.0-wmf.28, which will be deployed to Wikimedia wikis in the
week beginning 12 September 2022 for MediaWiki itself and those extensions
and skins available there.
After that point, patches that land in the main development branch of
MediaWiki and its bundled extensions and skins will be slated for the
MediaWiki 1.40 release unless specifically backported[1].
If you are working on a new feature that you wish to land for the release,
you now have a few days to finish your work and land it in the development
branch; feature changes should not be backported except in an urgent case.
If your work might not be complete in time, and yet should block release
for everyone else, please file a task against the `mw-1.39-release` project
on Phabricator.[2]
If you have tickets that are already tagged for `mw-1.39-release`, please
finish them, untag them, or reach out to get them resolved in the next few
weeks.
We hope to issue the first release candidate, 1.39.0-rc.0, two weeks after
the branch point, and if all goes well, to release MediaWiki 1.39.0 a few
weeks after that.

Hello,
We have a proposal to make small adjustments to the MediaWiki database
policy which would make abstract schema an explicit requirement.
Abstract schema was approved by TechCom in
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T191231 and now core and all WMF-deployed
extensions have migrated to abstract schema.
You can find the proposal in here. Please take a look and comment:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:MediaWiki_database_policy
If there are no major objections by the end of August 2022, I will codify
this into the policy.
Best

Hi,
I used to announce every new episode of my MediaWiki podcast here, but I
stopped doing it about a year ago. Maybe I'll start again - but I thought
the latest episode was especially noteworthy, because it's with two of the
developers of Abstract Wikipedia (Adam Baso and Julia Kieserman), an
extremely interesting project:
https://betweenthebrackets.libsyn.com/episode-116-adam-baso-and-julia-kiese…
There's no shortage of other interesting recent episodes, though - with WMF
developers like Alex Hollender, Tyler Cipriani and Marshall Miller, people
representing organizations like the U.S. National Gallery of Art and Space
Force, and others. You can listen to all the episodes here:
