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/2022/06 are available.

*Recent changes*

- English Wikipedia recently set up a gadget for dark mode. You can enable it there, or request help from an interface administrator https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Interface_administrators to set it up on your wiki (instructions and screenshot https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Wikipedia:Dark_mode_(gadget)). - Category counts are sometimes wrong. They will now be completely recounted at the beginning of every month. [1] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T299823

*Problems*

- A code-change last week to fix a bug with Live Preview https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Live_preview may have caused problems with some local gadgets and user-scripts. Any code with skin-specific behaviour for vector should be updated to also check for vector-2022. A code-snippet, global search, and example are available https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T300987.

*Changes later this week*

- The new version https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.38/wmf.21 of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 8 February. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 9 February. It will be on all wikis from 10 February (calendar https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.38/Roadmap).
