Hello,
The search-as-you-type completion suggester, which powers the search
function at the top right of every page (or in the sidebar in Monobook),
can now be configured at Special:Preferences. The default setting includes
our most recent improvements to search while the new options make it easy
to restrict the completion suggester. This is useful when searching for
specific text in search queries. A description of the preferences can be
found on MediaWiki.org [0] or inline at Special:Preferences. Feedback and
questions are welcome. [1]

In case you missed it, here's the video.

Today presenters covered Wikipedia offline (including a Progressive Web App
<https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_web_app> version) prototypes,
IFTTT <https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IFTTT> automated testing, file
property searches, and Wikidata visualizations you can copy and paste into
articles. More details on the Etherpad
