We're now up to the latest Wikipedia
software
version on the English
Wikipedia. Some changes I and others made in the
last weeks:
1) 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.
2) 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.
3) The deletion feature now indicates if you are
about to delete a page
that has a history.
4) The "New pages" list now shows the bytesize of
each page, making it
easier to pick nice, long articles for the Main
Page.
5) 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 ?
