Hi everyone,
The important part of this email is this link:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/2015_Community_Wishlist_Survey/Status_repor…
This is the second Community Wishlist Survey status report. In November and
December, active contributors to Wikimedia projects proposed, discussed and
voted on the features and fixes that they most want to see. The Wikimedia
Foundation Community Tech team has been tasked with working on
these. Additionally, Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes team has been
working on wishes from the German-speaking community. There's overlap
between the two wishlists, and the teams are collaborating on various
wishes, so this report includes progress made by both teams as well as
great work being done by volunteer developers and other WMF staff.
So far, we (in the broad sense) have added support for:
*) Migrating dead external links to archives (but there's more work to be
done!)
*) Pageview stats
*) Global notifications
*) A category watchlist
We're currently working on:
*) Improving the plagiarism detection bot
*) Improving the diff compare screen
*) Numerical sorting in categories
*) The possibility to add an expiry date to watchlist items
*) A revision slider to help editors navigate through diff pages
For more information on these projects as well as upcoming tasks, see the
full status report on Meta:

We're looking forward to talking and working with you as we go along.
Thanks,
//Johan Jönsson
