Hi translators, the latest issue of your favourite tech newsletter is ready for translation at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2014/04
The newsletter will be sent to subscribers on Monday morning (UTC); all translations existing by that time will be posted on wikis in those languages.
There might be some edits tomorrow, but the content should generally remain fairly stable -- I will of course let you know as soon as a final version of the issue is published.
Please let me know if you have any questions, comments or concerns. I appreciate your help, feedback and involvement.
Tomasz
Hi again, this is just to let you know that after reviewing Bugzilla bugs and Gerrit patches that got fixed and merged since I last looked at them on Friday, I froze this week's issue of Tech News and published its final version at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2014/04.
Five new items have been added since my first e-mail to you:
* one about improved performance of the VisualEditor which should result in faster page saves for users; * one about yesterday's problems with connecting to the Tampa datacenter which resulted in short outages of Bugzilla, Wikimedia Labs and the IRC network irc.wikimedia.org; * one about a new functionality of the UploadWizard extension which will allow rejecting all files from specific Flickr users from being uploaded with UW (through a blacklist); * one about a new MediaWiki core function which will show users a warning if they try to delete a page included in at least one other page; * and, finally, one about disambiguation files being no longer listed in the results of the [[Special:Lonelypages]] special page (a request first filed in 2005).
/More importantly/, three already existing pages have been updated, too: * https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Translations:Tech/News/2014/04/36/en was updated to include the actual dates when the new version of the MediaWiki software will be deployed to the wikis (since there will be no deployments next week due to a holiday in the U.S.); * https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Translations:Tech/News/2014/04/37/en was slightly re-worded to be more precise; * https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Translations:Tech/News/2014/04/46/en now includes a translation variable (tvar) instead of a direct file link for ease of translation.
Please make sure to translate the new items and update the existing ones. From now on, there will be no more changes coming.
The newsletter will be distributed to subscribers at around 08:00 UTC on Monday according to the publication schedule visible on top of the page on Meta.
Please let me know if you have any questions, comments or concerns. I appreciate your help, feedback and involvement.

Thank you all for your work! The newsletter and its translations are now being delivered to subscribers across wikis.
Hello Guillaume,
May I ask how would I check that the issue reaches my wiki of choice (given that there is a translation that matches its language)?
Thanks for your time and consideration,
Kind Regards, Aya Saif El-yazal Mahfouz

Hello Amir,
The wiki I'm interested in is Arabic. I'm not interested in a personal subscription but rather in having it posted on the community portal.
Thanks,
Kind Regards, Aya Saif El-yazal Mahfouz

Aya, you probably need to add the relevant community discussion page in your wiki to the following list: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Global_message_delivery/Targets/Tech_ambassa...
I searched for "ar." and I don't see any Arabic wikis there.
