2025年第39期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

本周要闻

• 9月24日 15:00 UTC，所有维基媒体网站使用者将经历短暂的只读状态，此为预定的资料中心服务器切换作业所致。维基媒体基金会的网站可靠性工程团队将把所有流量从主要服务器导向至备援服务器。您可透过“聆听维基百科”工具实际听到切换过程：在只读阶段，您将听到编辑操作暂停数分钟，随后恢复正常。这个半年一次的资料中心服务器切换作业，旨在透过测试备援资料中心来确保可靠性，让我们的网站即使在主要资料中心故障时仍能持续运作。更多详情请参阅Diff文章。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 不久后，60个维基词典的编辑者将能够呼叫维基函数的函数，并在页面中使用。函数能接受一个或多个输入，并将其转换成预期的输出，例如：相加两数、换算单位、计算时间跨度或转换大小写。加上先前完成部署的65个维基词典语言版本，目前共有125个维基词典站点可以从维基函数呼叫函数并在页面中嵌入使用。今年稍晚，我们计划进一步扩展至更多维基词典语言版本及维基孵育场。
• 新增了一个解析器函数：{{#contentmodel}}。模板编辑者与管理员可运用此函数取得特定页面的内容模型的本地名称或标准名称。此函数能让管理员等更容易建立和编辑系统讯息（如MediaWiki:editinginterface），即使在切换不同页面内容模型（如wikitext​、JavaScript、CSS、JSON）时亦然。 [1]
• 先前，在视觉化编辑器中新增或修改DISPLAYTITLE时会发生错误，现已修正此问题。此工单列出了可能受影响且可能需要清理的页面清单。
• Android版维基百科APP的Beta使用者现在可以试用重新设计过的“活动”标签页，取代旧有的“编辑”标签页。新设计的标签页为使用者提供其阅读、编辑、捐款活动的个人化洞察，同时简化导览流程，让应用程序的使用体验更具吸引力。
• 上周有12件由社群提交的工单得到解决。

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 本周软件更新细节： MediaWiki

深入了解

• 维基函数使用者现可从维基数据汇入涉及地理坐标、数量值、时间值的诸多关键资讯。此功能得以实现，是因维基数据为这些数值建立了对应的维基函数类型，使其能被维基函数的函数所运用。欲深入了解运作原理，请参阅此影片，以及8月1日（关于数量值）与8月22日（关于地理坐标）的维基函数电子报。

2025年第40期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

本周要闻

• A major software upgrade has been made to Phabricator. The update introduces performance improvements, a refreshed search interface, enhancements to Maniphest task search, updates to user profile pages and project workboards, new Herald automation features, as well as general text input, mobile experience improvements and more. [2]

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• The Community Tech team will release the new Community Wishlist extension on October 1, that will improve the way wishes will be submitted. The new extension will allow users to add tags to their wishes to better categorise them, and (in a future iteration) to filter them by status, tags and focus areas. It will also be possible to support individual wishes again, as requested by the community in many instances. The old system will be retired. There will be a brief period of downtime while the extension is deployed and wishes are migrated to the new system. You can read more about this in the latest update or you can consult the current documentation on MediaWiki.
• As announced on Diff blog, the production trial of the hCaptcha service for bot detection has begun. The trial is currently using hCaptcha to protect account creation on Chinese, Persian, Portuguese, Indonesian, Japanese, and Turkish Wikipedias, where it will replace our existing CAPTCHA (FancyCaptcha). The goal with the trial is to better block bots while also improving usability and accessibility for users who encounter CAPTCHA challenges.
• The CampaignEvents extension has been deployed to Wikimedia Commons. The extension makes it easier to organize and participate in collaborative activities, like edit-a-thons and WikiProjects, on the wikis. On Commons, anyone who is a registered user can use it as an event participant. To use it as an organizer, someone needs to have the event organizer right.
• Sub-referencing, a new feature to re-use references with different details has been released to German Wikipedia. You can test the feature on testwiki or on betawiki as well. Please share your thoughts on using templates in sub-references or volunteer to become a pilot wiki.
• On wikis using the Mentorship system, communities can now opt experienced editors out of Mentorship through Special:CommunityConfiguration/Mentorship. Within this setting, communities may define thresholds, based on edit count and account age, to decide when an editor is considered experienced enough to no longer receive Mentorship. [3]
• The Editing Team and the Machine Learning Team are working on a new check for newcomers: Tone check. Using a prediction model, this check will encourage editors to improve the tone of their edits, using artificial intelligence. We invite volunteers to review the first version of the Tone language model for the following languages: Arabic, Czech, German, Hebrew, Indonesian, Dutch, Polish, Russian, Turkish, Chinese, Farsi, Italian, Norwegian, Romanian and Latvian. Users from these wikis interested in reviewing this model are invited to sign up at MediaWiki.org. The deadline to sign up is on October 3, which will be the start date of the test.
• The rollout of multiblocks had the side effect that non-active block logs may have been shown on Special:Contributions and on blocked users' user and user_talk pages. This issue will be fully resolved in a few days. As part of the fix, messages prefixed with sp-contributions-blocked-notice will be removed and replaced with those prefixed with blocked-notice-logextract in a few weeks. Please help translate the new messages and update any local overrides if needed.
• There was a bug with links added using visual editor if they included characters such as [ ] | after the fragment identifier (#). They were not encoded properly creating an incorrect link. This has been fixed. [4]
• 已新建一个维基： 马来语维基语录 (q:ms:) [5]
• 上周有21件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，使用者资讯卡现在会显示生效中的全域锁定和全域封锁。 [6]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• Later this week, editors using Lua modules will be able to use the mw.title.newBatch function to look up the existence of up to 25 pages at once, in a way that only increases the expensive function count once.
• A new Unsupported Tools Working Group has been formed as part of ongoing efforts to collectively determine technical work priorities, similar to the Product & Technology Advisory Council (PTAC). The working group will help prioritize and review requests for support of unmaintained extensions, gadgets, bots, and tools. For the first cycle, the group will be prioritizing an unsupported Wikimedia Commons tool.

2025年第41期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

本周要闻

• 贴上检查（Paste check）是新的编辑检查功能，旨在避免并对抗侵权著作权的行为。当编辑者将文字贴入条目时，贴上检查会提示其确认内容的来源与授权方式。自10月8日（三）起，22个维基站点将测试此功能。贴上检查将协助新手志愿者理解并遵循必要的方针与指引，从而为维基百科专案作出建设性贡献。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 移动设备将直接透过标准网域（如en.wikipedia.org）接收行动版条目，而非转址至“m”网域（如en.m.wikipedia.org）。此变更可提升效能。本周，各个维基百科站点将启用此变更。既有的行动版网址及“桌面版检视”选项仍可使用。了解更多。 [7]
• 维基搜索引擎新增两项日期筛选器：creationdate:、lasteditdate:。使用者可借此依据页面首次或最后修订日期来筛选搜寻结果。这些筛选器支援比较运算子（如>2024）与相对日期（如today-1d），让使用者更容易查找于特定时间范围内更新的内容或页面。 [8]
• 在已启用维基函数功能的150个维基站点中，现在支援嵌入呼叫富文本。为展示此功能，团队制作了一张拉丁语变格表，供维基词典编辑者自动生成名词形式，产出清晰且格式化的结果——参见范例输出。如需协助或有任何意见回馈，请联系维基函数团队。 [9]
• 现在，已登入使用者可在条目页面的分类框内见到编辑连结，点击后将直接开启视觉化编辑器的分类对话框。 [10]
• 上周有34件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，上周PDF下载功能曾发生问题，此问题现已解决。 [11]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 修订版本资料表中的rev_sha1栏位将被移除，并由内容资料表中的content_sha1栏位取代。详情请参阅公告。
• 2025年10月29日，读者体验团队将在所有维基媒体网站推出深色模式UI。所有维基媒体网站的未登入使用者皆可启用黑底白字的配色方案。此设计旨在提供更舒适的阅读体验，尤其适用于低光环境。诚挚邀请模板编者与技术贡献者于启用前，学习如何使页面支援深色模式，并解决模板可能出现的相容性问题。启用前若有任何疑问或需要支援，请透过此讨论页联系网页团队。 [12]
• 10月6日（一）开始，位于rest.php路径下的API端点将重新路由至新的内部API闸道。个别维基站点将依据标准MediaWiki版本更新分组进行更新，整体流量将随时间逐步提升。此变更应为非中断更新。若发现任何问题，请至Phabricator提交工单至服务运营团队看板。 [13]

2025年第42期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

本周要闻

• 上周，所有维基站点已启用账号安全与双重验证（2FA）功能的改进措施。这些变更包括：Special:AccountSecurity界面优化，支援透过Authenticator应用程序与便携式安全金钥实现多种双重验证方式（先前仅限启用单一方式），以及新的“恢复代码模组”，此模组可减少因遗失双重验证应用程序或装置而导致账号锁定的状况。作为账号安全专案的一部分，我们将在2025年结束前持续推进使用者体验改进工作，并新增支援以通行金钥作为双重验证方式。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 账号安全专案的另一项目标，是将双重验证功能全面开放给所有使用者。不计已可启用双重验证的高级权限编辑者（如管理员与行政员），现在有40%的编辑者可启用双重验证。您可至Special:AccountSecurity页面确认自己可否使用双重验证功能，若可以，点击该区块任一按钮可进一步查看验证步骤。若经评估确认使用者支援系统足以支撑全球范围的使用，我们将持续扩大此功能的开放范围。 [14]
• 本周，在预设启用讨论页可用性改进的维基站点（即除了T379264列出的12个站点之外的所有站点），使用者将能够在讨论页中直接对个别留言表达“感谢”。在此之前，使用者只能在讨论页的修订纪录中传送“感谢”。 了解更多。 [15]
• 尚未验证电子邮件地址的使用者，将陆续收到每月发送的验证提醒通知。完成电子邮件验证的使用者能更容易恢复账号，因此我们建议使用者完成电子邮件验证。若使用者处于非活跃状态，或从账号中移除未验证的电子邮件地址，则不会收到此类提醒。 [16][17]
• 上周有21件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，内容翻译工具曾偶尔出现翻译段落储存错误，此问题现已解决，相关错误讯息也更容易被察觉。 [18]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 未受支援工具工作组已选定Video2Commons作为其试行周期的首个工具。该工作组将在未来数月内探索能改进与维持此工具的方案。了解更多。

2025年第44期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• iOS版维基百科APP现已在部分语言及地区开始一项关于“标签页”功能的A/B/C测试。这项测试名为“更多动态标签页”，旨在探索标签页浏览体验的可能性，现正计划加入“你知道吗”和“因为您阅读了”标签页，客制化提供文章建议。详见专案页面。
• 现在，在启用CampaignEvents扩充功能的中、小型维基上，自动确认使用者无需拥有活动筹办人员权限即可使用活动报名功能。该功能让活动筹办人员能启用报名机制、管理参与者，并简化使用者报名程序，仅需透过点击按钮即可完成，无需于活动页面手动签署报名。
• 上周有31件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，之前在Vector 2022的深色模式设定界面中，按住或按下方向键时会闪烁色彩，现已修正此问题。 [22]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 2025年11月17日当周，CampaignEvents扩充功能将部署至所有尚未部署的维基。该扩充功能目前有三项功能：活动报名、协作清单和邀请名单。本次部署中，除非有关社群提出请求，否则邀请清单功能将不会在维基函数和MediaWiki.org启用。详见部署页面。
• 基于SwaggerUI的REST沙盒现已在所有维基专案上线。您可至Special:RestSandbox页面使用该沙盒。若遇任何问题，请至Phabricator的MediaWiki界面团队看板回报，或参与专案启动页面列出的相关讨论。 [23]
• MediaWiki REST API中，路径带有结尾斜线（trailing slash）的转换端点现已标记为“已弃用”。这些端点目前仍可正常运作，但预计将于2026 年1月底前移除。建议所有目前呼叫这些端点的API使用者转用无结尾斜线版本。两种端点变体皆可透过REST沙盒进行查找与测试。关于API弃用方针与流程，请参阅MediaWiki REST API的弃用。
• MediaWiki REST API现设有专属更新日志。该更新日志提供变更概览，方便开发者追踪各项改进和迭代。相关公告仍将透过技术新闻与电子邮件清单等标准通讯管道发布，但更新日志将成为一个更便于引用的中央位置。若您对更新日志的风格、结构或内容有任何意见，欢迎参与讨论。
• JsonConfig扩充功能已不再使用，但由该扩充功能建立的追踪分类依然残留。管理员现可删除这些追踪分类，具体清单参见Q130635582。由于快取因素，这些分类可能会显示有页面残留。编辑页面会清除该页面的快取，而当快取被清除后，这些页面会自动从分类中消失。 [24]

Wikidata weekly summary #704

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata in the
week leading up to 2025-11-03. Missed the previous one? See issue #703.

Discussions

• Closed request for adminship: Samoasambia
• New requests for permissions/Bot: langCodesBot - Task(s): Python script to automate the cleanup of deprecated language codes (e.g., kr) from Wikidata items. Delete or move labels, descriptions, and aliases based on comparisons with fallback and related languages. The script uses the Pywikibot framework to process each item and logs cases it skips due to data inconsistencies or ambiguity to a CSV file for manual review.
• New request for comments: Exhibition models by Hexatekin - This proposal focuses on standardizing models for art exhibitions. There is not a consistent data model used for art exhibitions that factors in parent-child relationships for traveling exhibitions, show series, or biennials, despite these being important and common types of events in international art history.

Events

2025年第45期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• Special:MergeHistory获更新，大幅提升了合并功能的灵活性，以便管理员使用。该特殊页面现在能够从来源页面历史的中段提取段落进行合并，而不仅限于从开头提取；同时，它也能将修订版本插入目标页面历史中的任意位置，而不仅限于插入开头。 [25]
• 现在，对于在偏好设定中启用“自动订阅话题”功能的使用者，无论其透过何种编辑界面来新增或回复话题，系统皆会自动为其订阅该话题。先前，仅当使用讨论工具（DiscussionTools）的“添加话题”或“回复”按钮时才会触发自动订阅。讨论工具最初推出时，既有账号并未预设启用自动订阅话题功能，因此本次变更主要影响较新账号，以及曾主动更改偏好设定的使用者。 [26]
• Scribunto模组现在能够生成SVG图像。此功能能透过Lua来动态建立图表、图形及其他视觉化内容，减少外部制图后上传档案的需求。 [27]
• 维基媒体网站现在为所有匿名使用者提供启用深色模式（黑底白字配色方案）的选项。这项改进旨在提供更舒适的阅读体验，尤其是在光线昏暗的环境下。 [28]
• 存有庞大监视清单的使用者长期以来在编辑Special:EditWatchlist页面时遭遇逾时（timeout）问题。如今透过分页（paging）机制更新，该页面将分批载入项目，而非一次性载入全部内容，使所有使用者皆能顺畅编辑监视清单。作为数据库更新的一部分，我们移除了按到期时间排序的功能，因其速度比按标题排序慢100倍以上。我们提交了一件社群愿望，探讨恢复按到期时间排序功能的替代方案。若该功能对您至关重要，敬请投票支持该愿望！ [29]
• 上周有31件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，之前在视觉化编辑器的“寻找与取代”功能中，即使修改寻找栏位的文字，页面中原先的文字仍持续高亮显示，此问题现已修正。 [30]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 自2019年起，维基媒体缩网址服务（网址：https://w.wiki）开放所有维基媒体维基站点使用，可为条目、永久连结、差异页面等内容建立短网址。该功能可透过侧边栏的“获取短链接”连结存取。目前仍有30个维基站点同时安装旧版“ShortUrl”扩充功能。旧版扩充功能即将移除，意味着/s/短网址（以带有class="title-shortlink"的标签包裹）将不再直接显示于条目标题下方。但/s/短网址将持续正常运作。 [31]
• 10月30日（四），MediaWiki界面团队与SRE服务运营团队开始将Action API流量重新路由至共同API闸道。各维基站点将依据标准MediaWiki版本更新分组进行更新，整体流量将随时间逐步提升。此变更应为非中断更新。若发现任何问题，请至Phabricator的服务运营团队看板提交工单。
• MediaWiki部署列车将于2025年最后两周（12月22日、29日）暂停。向后移植窗口亦将于2025年12月22日（一）至2026年1月2日（四）期间暂停。向后移植窗口系指预定执行错误修正与配置变更等作业的时段。2025年尚余七次列车部署作业。 [32]
• 本周软件更新细节： MediaWiki

深入了解

• 维基媒体基金会指出，由于AI系统与搜索引擎频繁引用维基百科内容，却未能将使用者导向该网站，导致2025年真人浏览量较2024年下降8%。在观察到机器人伪装成真人的现象后，维基媒体更新了流量数据以反映此变化。关于维基百科当前使用者趋势，请参阅Diff文章。

2025年第46期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

采用新设计的讨论页的范例，图为法语维基百科

• 11月12日开始，部分维基百科的讨论页外观将变更为新设计。几乎所有维基已采用新设计；英语维基百科将稍后获得更新。详见Diff文章。使用者可以在偏好设定中的“显示讨论活动”选项停用此变更。 [33]
• MediaWiki现可于页面受保护时自动显示页面状态指示器（顶部图示）。此功能预设停用，可透过社群请求启用。 [34]
• 现在，使用wikitext编辑器的“显示预览”或“显示更改”按钮时，特定URL参数（如useskin、uselang、section）将会保留。此次更新同时修正了以下问题：之前，若浏览器在预览单一章节编辑时崩溃，储存该编辑可能导致整页内容被该章节内容覆写。 [35][36][37]
• 维基导游站点可在条目内文使用彩色地图标记。此类标记的文字将改以对比鲜明的黑色或白色显示，不再始终显示为白色。针对此问题的本地暂时解方现可移除。 [38]
• Android版维基百科APP的“活动”标签页现已开放所有使用者使用。此新标签页为使用者提供阅读、编辑、捐款活动的个人化洞察，同时简化导览流程，让应用程序的使用体验更具吸引力。 [39]
• 读者成长团队（Reader Growth）正计划推出名为“图片浏览”（Image browsing）的实验，旨在测试如何让读者更轻松地浏览与探索维基百科条目中的图片。此实验为A/B测试，仅限移动设备，将于11月17日当周在英语维基百科上线，为期四周，影响该站0.05%的使用者。这项测试已于11月3日在中文、阿拉伯语、法语、印尼语和越南语维基百科推出，影响这些站点中至多10%的使用者。 [40]
• 上周有27件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，前阵子监管员无法在移动设备网站锁定账号，此问题现已修正。 [41]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

2025年第48期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 上周，维基媒体搜寻团队在服务器端重新实现了希伯来语和俄语维基百科的“DWIM”小工具功能（DWIM＝Do What I Mean，照我的意思做）。DWIM小工具让使用者即使误切输入法，也能在搜寻建议中找到原本打算输入的字。例如，在俄语维基百科搜寻“cxfcnmt”，搜寻建议中会出现“счастье”。团队预计于本周在其他希伯来语和俄语站点启用此功能。 [49]
• 本周稍晚，启用“增强版语法高亮”测试功能的使用者，将能在讨论工具（DiscussionTools）中使用语法高亮功能。使用者需要同时启用“在源代码模式下启用编辑工具”选项以使用上述功能。 [50]
• CampaignEvents扩充功能——这套用于协调活动及其他维基内协作的工具组，现已部署至所有维基媒体站点。新功能协作贡献可让活动筹办人员与参与者检视活动成效。欢迎参加即将举行的学习课程，亲身体验新功能并提供您的意见回馈。
• 上周有24件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，先前CodeReviewBot无法正常运作，现已修正此问题。 [51]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 邀请维基媒体API使用者参与可用性研究，协助验证Wikimedia REST API沙盒的新设计。有兴趣的参与者请填写招募问卷。 [52]
• MediaWiki界面团队正着手弃用Action API中的XSLT样式表。今年11月底，对format=xml&xlst={stylesheet}的支援将从维基媒体专案中移除。此外，MediaWiki的1.43（LTS）、1.44、1.45版本也将预设停用该功能。MediaWiki 1.46版本（预计于2026年4月至5月间发布）将全面移除对XSLT样式表的支援。 [53]
• WDQS旧版端点（query-legacy-full.wikidata.org）将于今年12月底停止运作，并于2026年1月7日正式关闭。该日之后，若使用者未改用SPARQL联合查询，则向query.wikidata.org发出的full图谱查询请求将失败或传回无效结果。团队建议使用者确保工具和工作流程改用受支援的WDQS端点（主图谱：https://query.wikidata.org/或学术图谱：https://query-scholarly.wikidata.org/）。关于迁移和替代存取方式，详见资料存取与请求查询页面。

2025年第50期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

本周要闻

• 所有维基媒体专案的注册使用者现可启用双重验证（2FA）来保护其账号，这是账号安全计划的一环。不久后，凡执行涉及安全或隐私敏感操作的使用者，皆须强制启用双重验证。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 继上周的部署后，“新增链接”功能将于12月9日起扩大部署至另外33个维基百科语言版本。该功能让编辑者能在编辑过程中加入建议连结。本次扩大部署得益于全新预测模型，该模型现已支援所有语言，包含先前未涵盖的语言。尽管此功能已在大多数维基百科版本运行一段时间，本次部署将使我们更接近全面采用改良版模型的目标。如有任何疑问或想了解更多详情，请联系Trizek (WMF)。
• 上周，搜寻平台团队为格鲁吉亚语维基百科新增了即时转写搜寻建议功能。若搜寻拉丁字母或西里尔字母仅出现少许常规搜寻建议，搜寻文字会转换为格鲁吉亚字母来寻找更多结果。例如，在搜寻栏输入“bedniereba”或“бедниереба”，搜寻建议中会出现现存条目“ბედნიერება”（“幸福”）。若有其他语言需要这类有关转写或错误键盘／输入法的搜寻建议功能，请在Phabricator提出建议，供未来开发参考。
• 本周稍晚，我们将针对前100大维基百科版本的编辑者，在行动版网页视觉化编辑器中展开一项对照实验。其中50%的编辑者将会看到新增的“编辑完整页面”按钮，此功能可让编辑范围扩展至整页内容。此设计旨在让行动版网页使用者更容易编辑任何条目章节，无须受限于最初点击的章节编辑图示。此实验将持续约4周。详见工单。
• 本周稍晚，读者成长团队将进行一项行动版网页实验，预设展开所有条目章节（现行预设为折叠），并将使用者目前阅读的章节标题固定于页面顶端。此实验将影响中文、阿拉伯语、法语、印尼语、越南语维基百科中10%的使用者。 [57]
• The Wikipedia Year in Review 2025, a feature in the Wikipedia mobile apps (iOS and Android) that provides users with a personalised summary of their engagement with Wikipedia over the year, is now available on the iOS and Android apps. This edition includes expanded personalised insights, improved reading highlights, new donor messaging, and updated designs. Open the app to view your Year in Review and explore your reading journey from 2025.
• A recent software bug caused edits made with VisualEditor to make unintended changes to wikitext, including removing whitespace and replacing spaces with underscores in wikilinks inside citations. This was partially fixed last week, and further fixes are in progress. Editors who used VisualEditor between November 28 and December 2 should review their edits for unexpected modifications. [58]
• 上周有23件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，先前从Microsoft Edge网址栏复制URL再贴到某些维基编辑器中，会错误贴上网页标题而非URL，现已修正此问题。 [59]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 本周开始，启用“增强版语法高亮”测试功能的使用者，其Lua、JavaScript、CSS、JSON、Vue内容模型的编辑器将从CodeEditor改为CodeMirror。此变更将同步升级linter。我们计划逐步取代CodeEditor并提供一致的程式码编辑体验。 [60]
• 邀请开发者填写2025年开发者满意度调查，开放填写至2026年1月5日。如果您为维基媒体生态系统开发软件，并乐意分享经验或提供意见回馈，我们诚挚欢迎您参与调查。 [61]
• 本周没有MediaWiki版本更新。

2025年第51期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 上周有18件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，先前当临时账号在条目加入外部链接，hCaptcha请求被异常地多次触发，导致首次尝试发布编辑时未跳出弹窗，现已修正此问题。 [62]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 为提升数据库与网站效能，导向维基媒体专案的连结将不再作为外部链接储存于数据库中。这意味着这些连结将无法透过Special:LinkSearch搜寻，不会被垃圾邮件黑名单或滥用过滤器视为新连结进行检查，亦不会出现在数据库复本的externallinks资料表中。未来此措施可能扩展至其他高连结量的可信网站，以维基站点为单位实施，例如维基共享资源上的知识共享连结。 [63]

2025年第52期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 明年1月起，编辑过滤器可以设定成自动监督隐藏过滤器详情，这包括触发条件以及触发过滤器的编辑和操作等。监督员可以用这项功能来防止个人资料外泄或其他应隐藏内容的传播。 [64]
• 因应年末假期，下一期技术新闻将于2026年1月12日发送。感谢今年所有协助翻译、贡献内容以及提供宝贵意见的各位。
• 上周有16件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，先前在Android版维基百科年度回顾功能中，点击“第一步”时可能会发生崩溃，现已修正此问题，该功能可正常开启。 [65]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 过去，MediaWiki生成的界面元素（如差异比较与分类）会用data-mw="interface"属性来区别于维基内容。此属性现已改为data-mw-interface=""，以避免与由Parsoid生成的其他data-mw属性产生潜在冲突。 [66]
• 本周及下周没有MediaWiki版本更新。

会议与活动

2026年第5期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• Wikimedia Foundation invites comments on proposed future of the Product and Technology Advisory Council until 28 February.
• All users with registered accounts can now use passkeys for two-factor authentication (2FA). Passkeys are a simple way to log in without using a second device. They verify the user's identity using a fingerprint, face scan, or a PIN code. To set up a passkey, first set up a regular 2FA method. Currently, to log in with a passkey, users must also use a password. Later this quarter, passwordless login will allow users to log in with a single click and a passkey. Users with advanced rights will also be required to have 2FA enabled. This is part of the Account Security project.
• Unregistered contributors on blocked IPs or blocked IP ranges can now interact on-wiki to appeal a block by creating a temporary account to appeal a block on the user talk page, unless the "prevent this user from editing their own talk page" is enabled. This solves the problem of logged-out users unable to use the default unblock process via user talk page. [80]
• 上周有20件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，双重验证（2FA）管理页面上的双重验证方法说明已更新。现在说明文字更清晰易懂，使用者能更容易理解并运用相关功能。 [81]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• A new AbuseFilter variable, account_type, has been added to provide a reliable way to determine the account type being created in the createaccount and autocreateaccount actions. As part of this change, the variable accountname has been renamed to account_name, and accountname is now deprecated. Edit filter managers should update any filters that use hardcoded account type checks or the deprecated variable. [82]
• Image thumbnails that are requested in non-standard sizes, and using non-standard methods such as direct requests to upload.wikimedia.org/… will stop working in the near future. This change is to prevent ongoing external abuse by web-scrapers and bots. Some users with custom CSS/JS, Interface Admins who can fix gadgets and local skins, and Tool-authors, will need to update their code to use standard thumbnail sizes. Details, search-links, and examples of how to fix them, are available in the task.

2026年第7期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 监视清单中存有大量页面的编辑者现可用新功能“监视清单标签”^※来整理与筛选监视清单，帮助优化工作流程。透过新增自订标签（如：自己建立的页面、需监控破坏行为的页面、讨论页），使用者能更快速辨识需关注的编辑，降低认知负荷，并更有效率地应对。此功能让监视清单更容易使用，对活跃编辑者尤为助益。（※＝Watchlist labels，勿与编辑标签“tag”混淆）
• Special:Contributions推出新功能，可显示很可能由同一人操作的临时账号，从而减少巡查耗时。当查核临时账号的贡献时，具有临时账号IP地址存取权限的使用者，现在能查看其他相关临时账号的贡献。此功能会在资料保留期间内，查询与特定临时账号关联的所有IP地址，并显示曾使用这些IP地址的所有临时账号的贡献纪录。了解更多。 [86]
• 预览wikitext编辑时，顶部显示的提醒框（“这只是预览……”）背景色已由警告黄底改为中性灰底。此变更有助于区分预览提示与实际警告讯息（如编辑冲突或重定向目标错误），后者现改以独立的警告框或错误框呈现。 [87]
• 全域监视清单让使用者能够在一个页面检视多个维基站点的监视清单。此扩充功能目前正持续改进，现已完整支援多个Wikibase站点，例如同时涵盖维基数据与测试版维基数据。此外，已修正右至左（RTL）文字显示问题。 [88][89]
• 因缺乏弹性且难以本地化，wikitext中为ISBN、RFC、PMID编号自动生成连结的“魔术连结”功能已于2021年弃用。RFC与PMID魔术连结能以等效外部链接取代（部分维基站点已完成替换），但ISBN魔术连结通常需要模板才能完成替换。现已推出内建解析器函数{{#isbn}}，可取代ISBN魔术连结的基本功能，方便完成替换作业。 [90]
• 已新建两个维基：
  • 卡捷语维基百科 (w:kaj:) [91]
  • Nawat语维基百科 (w:ppl:) [92]
• 上周有23件由社群提交的工单得到解决。

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 新增了一个全域使用者群组：局域机器人。此群组将由软件内部使用，允许社群机器人绕过针对恶意网页抓取工具所施加的速率限制。凡在至少一个维基媒体站点获准为机器人的账号，将自动加入此群组。此举不会改变机器人原有的使用者权限。 [93]
• 本周软件更新细节： MediaWiki

Wikidata weekly summary #719

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata in the
week leading up to 2026-02-16. Missed the previous one? See issue #718.

Discussions

  • Che-W-bot - Request withdrawn.

Events

• Upcoming events: Next Linked Data for Libraries LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group session 17 February, 2026: We have our next LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group Session on Tuesday, February 17 9am PT / 12pm ET / 17:00 UTC / 6pm CET (Time zone converter). Wikiproject P244 maintenance uses SPARQL queries to identify and resolve two types of constraint violations in Wikidata: instances of Wikidata items with more than one LCNAF identifier and instances of the same LCNAF identifier existing on more than one Wikidata item. The February 17th session will walk participants through how to resolve the former issue, while the March 3rd session will focus on the latter.

2026年第8期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

本周要闻

• SRE团队将对维基媒体托管的Etherpad实例进行清理作业。Etherpad是一款网页式即时协作文件编辑器。所有Pad文件将于2026年4月30日后永久删除，若届时仍有进行中的迁移专案，团队可视个别情况重新评估日期。资料删除后无法复原，请务必为希望保留的内容建立本地备份。本次清理旨在缩减数据库规模并降低基础设施占用资源。Etherpad将持续支援即时协作功能，但请勿将其视为长期储存服务。未来可能再次进行清理作业，届时恕不另行通知。 [95]

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 资讯检索团队将在Android版维基百科APP展开实验，测试能够同时处理语义查询与关键字查询的混合搜寻功能。这项改进将使读者更容易直接在维基百科上找到所需内容。实验将于2月下旬首先在希腊语维基百科上线，随后于3月在英语、法语、葡萄牙语推出。更多详情请参阅Diff文章。 [96]
• The Reader Growth team will run an experiment for mobile web users, that adds a table of contents and automatically expands all article sections, to learn more about navigation issues they face. The test will be available on Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Indonesian, and Vietnamese Wikipedias.
• 先前，网站公告（MediaWiki:Sitenotice和MediaWiki:Anonnotice）只会在桌面版显示。现在，这些公告将显示在所有平台。行动版网页使用者将能看见这些公告并获取相关资讯。管理员应准备测试并修正网站公告在移动设备上的显示情况，以避免影响条目阅读体验。若需停用此变更，界面管理员可在MediaWiki:Minerva.css中加入样式规则：#siteNotice { display: none; }。 [97][98]
• 上周有19件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，先前在Special:RecentChanges中，点击筛选器的“隐藏”会导致“查看……之后的新更改”按钮消失，但该按钮理应保持可见状态。现已修正此问题，按钮功能恢复正常运作。 [99]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• New documentation is now available to help editors debug on-site search features. It supports troubleshooting when pages do not appear in results, when ranking seems unexpected, and when you need to inspect what content is being indexed, helping make search behavior easier to understand and analyze. Learn more. [100]

2026年第9期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改；不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。

本周要闻

• 参考文献检查功能已在英语维基百科部署完成，标志着该功能已在所有维基百科语言版本推广完成。该功能会在新用户发布内容前提示他们添加引用，有助于减少因缺乏引用而被撤销的情况，并提高条目的可验证性。在A/B测试中，该功能效果显著：A/B测试显示效果显著：使用该功能的新用户在桌面端添加引用的比例增加约2.2倍，在移动端则增加约17.5倍。 [101]

近况更新 - 面向编辑者

• 维基百科已撤销部署跨wiki排序扩展，该扩展曾提供跨wiki链接排序功能。因此，之前在“非紧凑模式（完整列表）”下进行跨维基链接排序的编辑者，他们的链接顺序将发生变化。今后链接将按语言代码的字母顺序显示。 [102]
• 本周稍晚，使用移动版可视化编辑器按段编辑页面的用户将看到新增的“编辑整页”按钮。点击后可切换到整页编辑，便于在修改内容跨段时一次性编辑整篇条目。当需要修改的内容超出当前段落时，该功能可省去反复打开其他段落的步骤，使用更方便。 [103][104]
• 读者体验团队正在邀请编辑者并根据他们在桌面端和移动端的使用情况，评估深色模式是否仍需在各自站点维持“测试版”状态。如果认为该功能已经成熟，编辑者可以更新MediaWiki:skin-theme-description和MediaWiki:Vector-night-mode-beta-tag中的界面提示，说明深色模式已可正式使用，不再处于测试阶段。
• 改进后的活动标签页现已向维基百科iOS应用程序（7.9.0及以上版本）的所有用户开放。A/B测试显示，启用该功能的用户注册率显著提高；因此我们已向所有用户全面推送该功能，并同时推出若干更新。活动标签页现在会在时间轴中显示用户编辑过的条目，提供编辑影响洞察（例如贡献次数与条目浏览趋势），并支持自定义选项以优化应用内体验。
• 上周有21件由社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如，先前讨论工具（DiscussionTools）在移动设备上无法正常使用，功能现已全面恢复。 [105]

近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者

• 全域监视列表可在同一页面显示来自多个维基站点的监视列表。此扩展目前正持续改进，最新增加了新钩子ext.globalwatchlist.rebuild，该钩子会在每次重建监视列表后触发。这使您能在该页面运行小工具和用户脚本。 [106]
