Hey folks :)
We've been working on completely rewriting the header section and moving it towards the new design. We're not there yet but the next step is ready for testing and then rolling out on Wikidata. Please go ahead and test it thoroughly at http://wikidata.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Q27946. This will allow you to collapse the in other languages box for example and adds a hint about how to configure the displayed languages. The remaining known issues are tracked at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T75654.
In addition to the new header the next deployment will bring a lot of under-the-hood changes and bug fixes. The most relevant changes for you are: * we made the diff for time values more meaningful * we fixed a lot of bugs in the time datatype * edit links are no longer cached incorrectly based on the users permission (This lead to users sometimes seeing edit buttons on pages that they could not edit and no edit buttons on pages that they could edit.) * we fixed some issues with propagating page moves and deletions on the clients (Wikipedia, etc) to Wikidata * we corrected an issue where you would see new data in the old part of a diff (This affected qualifiers mainly.) * the sitetointerwiki gadget now also works on diff pages * the precision is now detected correctly when entering a quantity in scientific notation * we added mailto as an accepted protocol for the URL datatype
Unless you find big issues during testing we plan to deploy this on Wikidata on 24th of March.
Cheers Lydia
Hi Lydia,
Perhaps it is for many users handy to have the collapsible option, but I personally like to know and I hope that I can disable the collapsible option in my .css. Otherwise it would be unhandy for those users who speak multiple languages and edit in multiple languages and do want to see at once all the languages they have selected to see.
Second, I would like to suggest to have all other languages in a collapsed section, as the current gadget labels list is not the most user friendly way to edit labels in the various other languages. In the current version of this item http://wikidata.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Q27946 I can't edit languages like cy, cs, it, as I do not have those languages selected with my preferences.
Besides the feedback I would like to say thank you for all the hard work on Wikidata.
Thanks. Romaine

- we fixed some issues with propagating page moves and deletions on
the clients (Wikipedia, etc) to Wikidata
- we corrected an issue where you would see new data in the old part
of a diff (This affected qualifiers mainly.)
- the sitetointerwiki gadget now also works on diff pages
- the precision is now detected correctly when entering a quantity in
scientific notation
- we added mailto as an accepted protocol for the URL datatype

I am not sure I understand. If they don't want to see all the other languages then they collapse the in other languages box and don't see it. Am I missing something?

That's a good point. I had that on my radar but we didn't have a ticket for it. I created one now at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T92759 There is a conceptual issue we need to solve there. I lined it out in the ticket. Input from you and others is very welcome there.
Besides the feedback I would like to say thank you for all the hard work on Wikidata.
\o/ Thanks!
