MusikBot's RotateTDYK task
[edit]i can get priority for rhyming questions? i'd love to try, that's a great suggestion!
Hey there! I –
Recently got approval for a brand-new bot task / that does a bunch of maintenance at DYKN.
And since your bot does headers there, I wanted to ask: / my bot's script does that on its own, and
Mine turns off at midnight, to not interfere / but it seems inefficient to duplicate work here.
The status quo's fine, I don't want to cause a standoff / but could I maybe interest you in a bot task handoff?
Here's hoping inquiries that rhyme are also more likely to get a favorable response :) didn't say it had to be good poetry! theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 22:48, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
- @Theleekycauldron Absolutely! I am always in favour of having less things to maintain. You have the requisite rights to edit User:MusikBot/RotateTDYK/Run. Set it to
false
whenever you're ready :) If you don't mind, also ping me after you've done this, so I can turn off the cron job on Toolforge. Cheers! — MusikAnimal talk 19:20, 14 July 2025 (UTC)

Tech News: 2025-29
[edit]Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Updates for editors
- Featured templates, a new feature related to Template Recall and Discovery will be deployed this week to all Wikimedia projects: With this feature, editors will be able to quickly access a list of templates that are likely to be useful. These templates will be displayed in a list, under the "featured" tab of the template discovery interface. Administrators can define the list via the Community Configuration interface. The feature fulfills a request by the community through the Community Wishlist. [1][2]
View all 31 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, the request to add Malayalam fonts in the Wikisource Book Export Tool was resolved and now, the rendering of Malayalam letters in exported Wikisource books are accurate. [3]
