We're now up to the latest Wikipedia software version on the English Wikipedia. Some changes I and others made in the last weeks:
- There is a new feature called "oldest articles"
(colloq. "ancient pages"). Currently this inevitably lists first all the imported articles from the phase I software that have not been
edited
yet ever since. Hopefully, as these become updated, this feature will allow us to systematically go through our old material and
make
sure it is in good shape and up to date.
- Sysops will note that the page deletion feature
now auto-pastes the content of pages that are smaller than 500 bytes into the deletion comment (only the first 150 characters). It also does so
if
the current revision is blanked and the previous revision contains text that can be pasted.
- The deletion feature now indicates if you are
about to delete a page that has a history.
- The "New pages" list now shows the bytesize of
each page, making it easier to pick nice, long articles for the Main Page.
- Some minor layout stuff, some by me, some by
others. Notably, the ugly "It was last modified" sentence at the bottom of each page has been fixed.
Regards,
Erik
Is it planned to make it available to other wikis as well ? 2 and 3 in particular

I think my question was missed. Probably because I adressed it to the wrong list.
International people are wondering when the last english features will be applied to other phase III wikipedias. Is there anything we should provide you to help there ?
