Hello! This email is mostly for Ambassadors active on wikis where FlaggedRevs <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:FlaggedRevs> are enabled (list <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/P6067>). Since a few months, all wikis have been trying a Beta feature: "*New filters for edit review <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Edit_Review_Improvements/New_filters_for_edit_review>*". Most wikis now have those filters as the default system on Recent Changes. That will also be the case for wikis using FlaggedRevisions, starting this week. *What is this feature again?* This feature improves Special:RecentChanges <https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toiminnot:Tuoreet_muutokset>, Special:RecentChangesLinked <https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toiminnot:Linkitetyt_muutokset> and Special:Watchlist <https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toiminnot:Tarkkailulista>. It adds new features that ease vandalism tracking and support of newcomers: - Filtering <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:New_filters_for_edit_review/Filtering> - filter recent changes with easy-to-use and powerful filters combinations, including filtering by namespace or tagged edits. - Highlighting <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:New_filters_for_edit_review/Highlighting_function> - add a colored background to the different changes you are monitoring. It helps quick identification of changes that matter to you. - Bookmarking <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:New_filters_for_edit_review/Bookmarking> to keep your favorite configurations of filters ready to be used. - Quality and Intent Filters <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:New_filters_for_edit_review/Quality_and_Intent_Filters> - those filters use ORES predictions <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/ORES>. They identify real vandalism or good faith intent contributions that need help. You can know more about this project by visiting the quick tour help page <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:New_filters_for_edit_review/Quick_tour> . *What's new?* The Global Collaboration team has progressively integrated all existing filters to the new filtering system. FlaggedRevisions wikis were waiting for some specific filters integration, which is now done. *Starting on Wednesday November 15th, the filters will be deployed by default for everyone on your wiki*. This only applies on RecentChanges and RecentChangesLink. *Filters for Watchlists will remain as a Beta feature.* When the deployment will be done, users will be able to desactivate the new filters by going to their "Opt out of improvements" section at the bottom of Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rc <https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toiminnot:Asetukset#mw-prefsection-rc>. If you have already activated the Beta feature "New filters for edit review", you have no action to take. If you haven't activated the Beta feature "New filters for edit review" and you want to try the filters on Watchlists, please go to your Beta preferences <https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toiminnot:Asetukset#mw-prefsection-betafeatures> . You can ping me if you have questions! All the best, Benoît -- Benoît Evellin (Trizek) Community Liaison Wikimedia Foundation
