Latest *tech news https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News* from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2015/13 are available.
*Changes this week*
- The new version https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.25/wmf22 of MediaWiki has been on test wikis and MediaWiki.org since March 18. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis from March 24. It will be on all Wikipedias from March 25 (calendar https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.25/Roadmap).
- The text of a reference is now more visible when you click on it. It has a blue background. Many wikis already have the blue color. Those wikis can now remove it from their CSS page. [1] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T10303
- VisualEditor is now much faster. For many users it is now at least as fast as the wikitext editor. [2] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T78628 [3] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T90372 [4] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T53569
- When you add a list of references in VisualEditor, you now see it right away. You can still change its group by editing it. [5] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T71727
*Meetings*
- You can read the notes https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours/Office_hours_2015-03-18 from the last meeting with the VisualEditor team.
- You can join the next weekly meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meetings you can tell developers which bugs are the most important. The meeting will be on March 25 at 19:00 (UTC) http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?hour=19&min=00&sec=0&day=25&month=03&year=2015. See how to join https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:VisualEditor/Portal.
*Future changes*
- Talk pages using "LiquidThreads" on mediawiki.org http://mediawiki.org will soon use the new system https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Flow. [6] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Sdoatsbslsafx6lw
"New system"? Why is "Flow" a taboo word? And why make people think it will have all of LQT's features?
