Hi all,
Small correction here.
Wikisource will not be getting the next update to MediaWiki and related
extensions (including ProofreadPage) until *December 2nd*.
Why? Because next week is Thanksgiving in the US and is thus a very
short week, and not long enough to do our normal release cadence.
Effectively we are treating next week as not existing in the realm of
deployments (except in high priority emergency fixes).
For the canonical reference for what is being deployed when, see:
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments
Thanks for the understanding.
Greg

Hi everyone!
A major update of the ProofreadPage extension will be rolled out next Monday, The 25th
November. Most of the code related to Page: pages, including the edition interface, have
been rewritten by Aarti Dwivedi (User:Rtdwivedi) with my help as part of the Google Summer
of Code 2013 project in order to have a cleaner and more maintainable code that will allow
an easier fix of dozens of known bugs.
We have tried to keep the same user interface and to don’t break any features with the
help of automated testing. The only big user interface change is that the links for
previous, next and index pages are only displayed as icon on Vector skin (but remains as
textual links on the other skins).
The HTML structure of view and edit modes of Page: pages have been changed, so some user
scripts may be broken. OldWikisource scripts have been updated by User:Phe (many thanks to
him) but some bugs may appear when the new code will be rolled out.
The new code is currently testable on
test2.wikipedia.org. Here I’ve created two pages in
order to hep testing:
https://test2.wikipedia.org/s/9gi and
https://test2.wikipedia.org/s/9i4 (notice that features added by OldWikisource scripts
aren’t active there).
Thomas
