• Dumps: We are starting to experiment with subset dumps to see if we can get meaningful smaller dumps for reusers.
• Wikidata integration in the other Wikimedia projects:
  • We are working on scalability issues around the number of changes from Wikidata that get sent to Wikipedia and co. As part of this we are continuing to look into how to decrease the number of changes in recent changes and watchlist on Wikipedia and co that don't actually affect an article there.
  • We are investigating how the upcoming larger rollout of Parsoid affects the tracking of Wikidata usage in articles.
  • We are looking into improving the Databox Lua module that is used especially in smaller Wikipedias to get Wikidata-powered infoboxes.
• Federation: We are looking at the previous prototype for Federated Properties that allowed to use Wikidata's Properties on another Wikibase instance. We are checking what if anything of it can be revived for our current work to allow other Wikibase instances to use Wikidata's Items and Properties seamlessly.
• Data governance: We are concluding research around the current undestanding of people about which data should go where in the Wikibase Ecosystem.
• Constraint reports: We limited Special:ConstraintReport to logged-in users to avoid AI scrapers hitting the systems too hard ([[phab:T401789]))

• 在大型維基中，Special:RecentChanges頁面中顯示編輯的預設時間段已從7天改為1天。這是效能改進計畫的一部分。由於這些維基的編輯數量眾多，這項變更應不會對使用者造成影響。 [19]
• Special:BlockedExternalDomains頁面現已列於Special:CommunityConfiguration中，方便管理員尋找。 [20]
• 過去，維基共享資源的影片未出現在Google搜尋的「影片」結果類型中。我們已調查此問題並回報給Google，目前Google已修復此問題。 [21][22]

2025年第37期技術新聞

維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更；不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。

本週要聞

• 編輯團隊正在開發一項新檢查：貼上檢查（Paste check）。這項檢查會提醒將文字貼入維基百科的新手編者，其內容可能不被接受。這項檢查旨在確保使用者在維基百科添加的內容符合維基媒體運動的承諾——基於自由內容授權提供資訊。這項檢查即將在數個維基站點進行測試。若您的社群有興趣參與測試，請在此工單中告知我們，或直接聯絡團隊。

近況更新 - 面向編輯者

• 本週稍晚，啟用「增強版語法醒目標示」測試功能的使用者將能使用lint工具，實時檢查wikitext中的錯誤或其他潛在問題。參閱說明頁面。 [29]
• 瀏覽維基站點（如en.wikipedia.org）時，系統會以兩種方式回應：顯示桌面版網頁，或轉址至「m」開頭網域的行動版網頁（如en.m.wikipedia.org）。未來三週內，MediaWiki將開始在標準網域上直接向行動裝置顯示行動版網頁，不再進行轉址。此變更不會影響現存的m.開頭網址或「桌面版檢視」選項。了解更多。 [30]
• 現在，當編輯操作更改了頁面的分類時，分類成員數量的更新會以非同步方式進行。此變更可提升編輯儲存速度——尤其是在將多個頁面移入或移出同一分類時——並降低網站當機風險，但這也意味著分類數量可能會短暫顯示過時資訊。 [31]
• 現在，對維基數據項目聲明中的限定符（屬性和值）和參考資料（屬性和值）所做的編輯，不會出現在其他維基站點的近期變更和監視清單頁面中。這是一項臨時變更，旨在提升效能，待其他解決方案存在後將恢復原狀。維基數據自身頁面則維持不變。了解更多。 [32][33]
• 日語維基站點的搜尋文字解析功能獲重大更新，引入了Sudachi分詞器，應能提供更準確、更相關的搜尋結果。 [34]
• 上週有31件由社群提交的工單得到解決。

2025年第38期技術新聞

維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更；不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。

近況更新 - 面向編輯者

• 現在，當讀者選用Vector 2022的「標準」字型大小與頁面寬度設定時，使用<references/>標籤建立的參考資料清單將自動以分欄形式顯示。 [35]
• 自10月6日當週起，在啟用CampaignEvents擴充功能的中、小型維基上，所有自動確認使用者皆可作為活動籌辦人員使用活動報名功能。除非透過Phabricator提出請求，大型維基將維持現狀。此變更旨在讓更多人能更容易使用活動報名功能，特別是在較少制定活動籌辦人員權限相關方針的維基上。了解更多。
• 站內搜尋的Regex功能更新，新增以下功能：
  • intitle:搜尋現可用：元字元如行首（^）和行尾（$）錨點。 [36]
  • intitle:、insource:搜尋現可用：字元集合如數字（\d）、空白（\s）、單詞（\w）；跳脫字元如回車（\r）、換行（\n）、制表（\t）、Unicode（如\uHHHH）。 [37]
• 過去，當在站內搜尋看似IP位址的字串時，系統會跳轉至該IP的貢獻紀錄。現在，系統會正常顯示搜尋結果。 [38]
• 9月24日，所有維基媒體網站將進入唯讀狀態幾分鐘，預定於15:00 UTC開始。這是半年一次的資料中心伺服器切換備份測試。更多關於此次切換的背景和細節，請參閱Diff文章。
• 上週有24件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，先前編輯章節時，從wikitext切換到視覺化編輯器會造成其他內容被移除，此問題現已修正。 [39]

近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者

• MediaWiki介面團隊正在運用Codex重新設計Wikimedia REST API沙盒。若您對API文件的改進方向，或讓開發者體驗變得順暢（或令人沮喪）的因素有任何意見回饋，誠摯邀請您參與即將舉行的探索訪談，或在維基內留下意見。了解更多。
• 現在，對維基數據別名（項目或屬性的替代名稱）的編輯，將較少出現在其他維基站點的近期變更和監視清單頁面中，從而減少不必要的通知。此舉將降低這些頁面整體中的「雜訊」數量。維基數據自身頁面則維持不變。了解更多。 [40]
• Unicode 17.0發布，供Module:Unicode data使用的共享資源資料集已隨之更新。未使用共享資源資料集的維基百科站點，應自行更新本地資料或改用共享資源資料集。
• 維基媒體企業服務的結構化內容（Structured Contents）端點的使用者現可存取已解析表格（Parsed Tables）。此新功能可擷取維基百科表格內容，並以結構化JSON格式呈現。作為結構化內容計畫的一環，這提升了機器可讀性。結構化內容輸出可透過隨選API或維基媒體雲端服務自由取得。
• 維基媒體企業服務的英語維基百科人物傳記資料集已在Kaggle平台發布，供評估與研究使用。此資料集提供逾150萬篇傳記的結構化數據，涵蓋出生與逝世日期、教育背景、所屬組織、職業經歷、獲獎紀錄等資訊（截取自2024年6月快照）。

2025年第39期技術新聞

維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更；不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。

本週要聞

• 9月24日 15:00 UTC，所有維基媒體網站使用者將經歷短暫的唯讀狀態，此為預定的資料中心伺服器切換作業所致。維基媒體基金會的網站可靠性工程團隊將把所有流量從主要伺服器導向至備援伺服器。您可透過「聆聽維基百科」工具實際聽到切換過程：在唯讀階段，您將聽到編輯操作暫停數分鐘，隨後恢復正常。這個半年一次的資料中心伺服器切換作業，旨在透過測試備援資料中心來確保可靠性，讓我們的網站即使在主要資料中心故障時仍能持續運作。更多詳情請參閱Diff文章。

近況更新 - 面向編輯者

• 不久後，60個維基詞典的編輯者將能夠呼叫維基函數的函數，並在頁面中使用。函數能接受一個或多個輸入，並將其轉換成預期的輸出，例如：相加兩數、換算單位、計算時間跨度或轉換大小寫。加上先前完成部署的65個維基詞典語言版本，目前共有125個維基詞典站點可以從維基函數呼叫函數並在頁面中嵌入使用。今年稍晚，我們計畫進一步擴展至更多維基詞典語言版本及維基孵育場。
• 新增了一個解析器函數：{{#contentmodel}}。模板編輯者與管理員可運用此函數取得特定頁面的內容模型的本地名稱或標準名稱。此函數能讓管理員等更容易建立和編輯系統訊息（如MediaWiki:editinginterface），即使在切換不同頁面內容模型（如wikitext​、JavaScript、CSS、JSON）時亦然。 [41]
• 先前，在視覺化編輯器中新增或修改DISPLAYTITLE時會發生錯誤，現已修正此問題。此工單列出了可能受影響且可能需要清理的頁面清單。
• Android版維基百科APP的Beta使用者現在可以試用重新設計過的「活動」標籤頁，取代舊有的「編輯」標籤頁。新設計的標籤頁為使用者提供其閱讀、編輯、捐款活動的個人化洞察，同時簡化導覽流程，讓應用程式的使用體驗更具吸引力。
• 上週有12件由社群提交的工單得到解決。

近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者

• 本週軟體更新細節： MediaWiki

2025年第40期技術新聞

維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更；不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。

本週要聞

• 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. [42]

近況更新 - 面向編輯者

• 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. [43]
• 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. [44]
• 已新建一個維基： 馬來語維基語錄 (q:ms:) [45]
• 上週有21件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，使用者資訊卡現在會顯示生效中的全域鎖定和全域封鎖。 [46]

近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者

• 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.

• 帳號安全專案的另一項目標，是將雙重驗證功能全面開放給所有使用者。不計已可啟用雙重驗證的高級權限編輯者（如管理員與行政員），現在有40%的編輯者可啟用雙重驗證。您可至Special:AccountSecurity頁面確認自己可否使用雙重驗證功能，若可以，點擊該區塊任一按鈕可進一步查看驗證步驟。若經評估確認使用者支援系統足以支撐全球範圍的使用，我們將持續擴大此功能的開放範圍。 [54]
• 本週，在預設啟用討論頁可用性改進的維基站點（即除了T379264列出的12個站點之外的所有站點），使用者將能夠在討論頁中直接對個別留言表達「感謝」。在此之前，使用者只能在討論頁的修訂紀錄中傳送「感謝」。 了解更多。 [55]
• 尚未驗證電子郵件地址的使用者，將陸續收到每月發送的驗證提醒通知。完成電子郵件驗證的使用者能更容易恢復帳號，因此我們建議使用者完成電子郵件驗證。若使用者處於非活躍狀態，或從帳號中移除未驗證的電子郵件地址，則不會收到此類提醒。 [56][57]
• 上週有21件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，內容翻譯工具曾偶爾出現翻譯段落儲存錯誤，此問題現已解決，相關錯誤訊息也更容易被察覺。 [58]

近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者

• 未受支援工具工作組已選定Video2Commons作為其試行週期的首個工具。該工作組將在未來數月內探索能改進與維持此工具的方案。了解更多。

2025年第43期技術新聞

維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更；不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。

近況更新 - 面向編輯者

• 為優化使用者資料在資料庫中的儲存方式，針對逾五年未登入且編輯次數低於100次的使用者，系統將自動清除其儲存的偏好設定。此類使用者再次登入時，系統將自動套用預設設定。 [59]
• 上週有20件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，先前全域貢獻介面訊息中的「XTools全域貢獻」連結出錯，此問題現已修正。 [60]

近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者

• 重新路由作業現已完成，所有數據流量已透過共同API閘道重新路由至rest.php路徑下的API端點。若發現任何問題，請至Phabricator提交工單至服務運營團隊看板。
• 現在，對維基數據的限定符和參考資料的編輯，將較少出現在其他維基站點的近期變更和監視清單頁面中，從而減少不必要的通知。此舉將降低這些頁面整體中的「雜訊」數量。維基數據自身頁面則維持不變。 [61]

2025年第44期技術新聞

維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更；不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。

近況更新 - 面向編輯者

• iOS版維基百科APP現已在部分語言及地區開始一項關於「標籤頁」功能的A/B/C測試。這項測試名為「更多動態標籤頁」，旨在探索標籤頁瀏覽體驗的可能性，現正計畫加入「你知道嗎」和「因為您閱讀了」標籤頁，客製化提供文章建議。詳見專案頁面。
• 現在，在啟用CampaignEvents擴充功能的中、小型維基上，自動確認使用者無需擁有活動籌辦人員權限即可使用活動報名功能。該功能讓活動籌辦人員能啟用報名機制、管理參與者，並簡化使用者報名程序，僅需透過點擊按鈕即可完成，無需於活動頁面手動簽署報名。
• 上週有31件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，之前在Vector 2022的深色模式設定介面中，按住或按下方向鍵時會閃爍色彩，現已修正此問題。 [62]

近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者

• 2025年11月17日當週，CampaignEvents擴充功能將部署至所有尚未部署的維基。該擴充功能目前有三項功能：活動報名、協作清單和邀請名單。本次部署中，除非有關社群提出請求，否則邀請清單功能將不會在維基函數和MediaWiki.org啟用。詳見部署頁面。
• 基於SwaggerUI的REST沙盒現已在所有維基專案上線。您可至Special:RestSandbox頁面使用該沙盒。若遇任何問題，請至Phabricator的MediaWiki介面團隊看板回報，或參與專案啟動頁面列出的相關討論。 [63]
• MediaWiki REST API中，路徑帶有結尾斜線（trailing slash）的轉換端點現已標記為「已棄用」。這些端點目前仍可正常運作，但預計將於2026 年1月底前移除。建議所有目前呼叫這些端點的API使用者轉用無結尾斜線版本。兩種端點變體皆可透過REST沙盒進行查找與測試。關於API棄用方針與流程，請參閱MediaWiki REST API的棄用。
• MediaWiki REST API現設有專屬更新日誌。該更新日誌提供變更概覽，方便開發者追蹤各項改進和迭代。相關公告仍將透過技術新聞與電子郵件清單等標準通訊管道發布，但更新日誌將成為一個更便於引用的中央位置。若您對更新日誌的風格、結構或內容有任何意見，歡迎參與討論。
• JsonConfig擴充功能已不再使用，但由該擴充功能建立的追蹤分類依然殘留。管理員現可刪除這些追蹤分類，具體清單參見Q130635582。由於快取因素，這些分類可能會顯示有頁面殘留。編輯頁面會清除該頁面的快取，而當快取被清除後，這些頁面會自動從分類中消失。 [64]
• 本週軟體更新細節： MediaWiki

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.

2025年第45期技術新聞

維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更；不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。

近況更新 - 面向編輯者

• Special:MergeHistory獲更新，大幅提升了合併功能的靈活性，以便管理員使用。該特殊頁面現在能夠從來源頁面歷史的中段提取段落進行合併，而不僅限於從開頭提取；同時，它也能將修訂版本插入目標頁面歷史中的任意位置，而不僅限於插入開頭。 [65]
• 現在，對於在偏好設定中啟用「自動訂閱話題」功能的使用者，無論其透過何種編輯介面來新增或回覆話題，系統皆會自動為其訂閱該話題。先前，僅當使用討論工具（DiscussionTools）的「新增話題」或「回覆」按鈕時才會觸發自動訂閱。討論工具最初推出時，既有帳號並未預設啟用自動訂閱話題功能，因此本次變更主要影響較新帳號，以及曾主動更改偏好設定的使用者。 [66]
• Scribunto模組現在能夠生成SVG圖像。此功能能透過Lua來動態建立圖表、圖形及其他視覺化內容，減少外部製圖後上傳檔案的需求。 [67]
• 維基媒體網站現在為所有匿名使用者提供啟用深色模式（黑底白字配色方案）的選項。這項改進旨在提供更舒適的閱讀體驗，尤其是在光線昏暗的環境下。 [68]
• 存有龐大監視清單的使用者長期以來在編輯Special:EditWatchlist頁面時遭遇逾時（timeout）問題。如今透過分頁（paging）機制更新，該頁面將分批載入項目，而非一次性載入全部內容，使所有使用者皆能順暢編輯監視清單。作為資料庫更新的一部分，我們移除了按到期時間排序的功能，因其速度比按標題排序慢100倍以上。我們提交了一件社群願望，探討恢復按到期時間排序功能的替代方案。若該功能對您至關重要，敬請投票支持該願望！ [69]
• 上週有31件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，之前在視覺化編輯器的「尋找與取代」功能中，即使修改尋找欄位的文字，頁面中原先的文字仍持續高亮顯示，此問題現已修正。 [70]

近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者

• 自2019年起，維基媒體縮網址服務（網址：https://w.wiki）開放所有維基媒體維基站點使用，可為條目、永久連結、差異頁面等內容建立短網址。該功能可透過側邊欄的「取得短網址」連結存取。目前仍有30個維基站點同時安裝舊版「ShortUrl」擴充功能。舊版擴充功能即將移除，意味著/s/短網址（以帶有class="title-shortlink"的標籤包裹）將不再直接顯示於條目標題下方。但/s/短網址將持續正常運作。 [71]
• 10月30日（四），MediaWiki介面團隊與SRE服務運營團隊開始將Action API流量重新路由至共同API閘道。各維基站點將依據標準MediaWiki版本更新分組進行更新，整體流量將隨時間逐步提升。此變更應為非中斷更新。若發現任何問題，請至Phabricator的服務運營團隊看板提交工單。
• MediaWiki部署列車將於2025年最後兩週（12月22日、29日）暫停。向後移植窗口亦將於2025年12月22日（一）至2026年1月2日（四）期間暫停。向後移植窗口係指預定執行錯誤修正與配置變更等作業的時段。2025年尚餘七次列車部署作業。 [72]
• 本週軟體更新細節： MediaWiki

深入了解

• 維基媒體基金會指出，由於AI系統與搜尋引擎頻繁引用維基百科內容，卻未能將使用者導向該網站，導致2025年真人瀏覽量較2024年下降8%。在觀察到機器人偽裝成真人的現象後，維基媒體更新了流量數據以反映此變化。關於維基百科當前使用者趨勢，請參閱Diff文章。

2025年第46期技術新聞

維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更；不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。

近況更新 - 面向編輯者

採用新設計的討論頁的範例，圖為法語維基百科

• 11月12日開始，部分維基百科的討論頁外觀將變更為新設計。幾乎所有維基已採用新設計；英語維基百科將稍後獲得更新。詳見Diff文章。使用者可以在偏好設定中的「顯示討論活動」選項停用此變更。 [73]
• MediaWiki現可於頁面受保護時自動顯示頁面狀態指示器（頂部圖示）。此功能預設停用，可透過社群請求啟用。 [74]
• 現在，使用wikitext編輯器的「顯示預覽」或「顯示變更」按鈕時，特定URL參數（如useskin、uselang、section）將會保留。此次更新同時修正了以下問題：之前，若瀏覽器在預覽單一章節編輯時崩潰，儲存該編輯可能導致整頁內容被該章節內容覆寫。 [75][76][77]
• 維基導遊站點可在條目內文使用彩色地圖標記。此類標記的文字將改以對比鮮明的黑色或白色顯示，不再始終顯示為白色。針對此問題的本地暫時解方現可移除。 [78]
• Android版維基百科APP的「活動」標籤頁現已開放所有使用者使用。此新標籤頁為使用者提供閱讀、編輯、捐款活動的個人化洞察，同時簡化導覽流程，讓應用程式的使用體驗更具吸引力。 [79]
• 讀者成長團隊（Reader Growth）正計劃推出名為「圖片瀏覽」（Image browsing）的實驗，旨在測試如何讓讀者更輕鬆地瀏覽與探索維基百科條目中的圖片。此實驗為A/B測試，僅限行動裝置，將於11月17日當週在英語維基百科上線，為期四週，影響該站0.05%的使用者。這項測試已於11月3日在中文、阿拉伯語、法語、印尼語和越南語維基百科推出，影響這些站點中至多10%的使用者。 [80]
• 上週有27件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，前陣子監管員無法在行動裝置網站鎖定帳號，此問題現已修正。 [81]

近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者

• Wikitech正在進行Toolforge標準委員會的新委員提名。委員會職責包括監督Toolforge的分叉權方針和遺棄工具方針等。提名持續開放至11月28日。
• SUL維基站點的OAuth 2存取憑證中，JWT核發者欄位iss已變更為https://meta.wikimedia.org。舊版存取憑證仍可正常使用。 [82]
• OAuth 2存取憑證中的JWT使用者欄位sub即將從<user id>變更為mw:<identity type>:<user id>，其中<identity type>通常為CentralAuth:（適用於SUL維基站點）或local:<wiki id>（適用於其他維基）。此變更旨在避免不同使用者ID類型間的衝突，並使OAuth 2存取憑證與sessionJwt cookie格式更趨一致。舊版存取憑證仍可正常使用。 [83]
• MediaWiki的封鎖訊息（blockedtext、blockedtext-partial、autoblockedtext、systemblockedtext、blockedtext-tempuser、autoblockedtext-tempuser）新增參數，用以標示使用者是否被禁止編輯自己的使用者討論頁（$9）或寄送電子郵件給其他使用者（MediaWiki:Blockedtext0）。 [84]
• 我們已在Wikimedia git倉庫中為MediaWiki核心和各擴充功能與外觀皮膚建立REL1_45分支。此為MediaWiki 1.45.0版本發布流程的第一步，該版本預計於今年11月下旬推出。若您正在修復關鍵錯誤或開發新功能，請留意此變更。 [85]
• 由於效能下降，我們更新了CirrusSearch轉儲檔的生成流程。若您在改用新轉儲時遇到任何問題，請聯繫搜尋平台團隊（Search Platform）尋求支援。 [86][87]

2025年第48期技術新聞

維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更；不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。

近況更新 - 面向編輯者

• 上週，維基媒體搜尋團隊在伺服器端重新實現了希伯來語和俄語維基百科的「DWIM」小工具功能（DWIM＝Do What I Mean，照我的意思做）。DWIM小工具讓使用者即使誤切輸入法，也能在搜尋建議中找到原本打算輸入的字。例如，在俄語維基百科搜尋「cxfcnmt」，搜尋建議中會出現「счастье」。團隊預計於本週在其他希伯來語和俄語站點啟用此功能。 [89]
• 本週稍晚，啟用「增強版語法醒目標示」測試功能的使用者，將能在討論工具（DiscussionTools）中使用語法醒目標示功能。使用者需要同時啟用「以原始碼模式啟用編輯工具」選項以使用上述功能。 [90]
• CampaignEvents擴充功能——這套用於協調活動及其他維基內協作的工具組，現已部署至所有維基媒體站點。新功能協作貢獻可讓活動籌辦人員與參與者檢視活動成效。歡迎參加即將舉行的學習課程，親身體驗新功能並提供您的意見回饋。
• 上週有24件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，先前CodeReviewBot無法正常運作，現已修正此問題。 [91]

近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者

• 邀請維基媒體API使用者參與可用性研究，協助驗證Wikimedia REST API沙盒的新設計。有興趣的參與者請填寫招募問卷。 [92]
• MediaWiki介面團隊正著手棄用Action API中的XSLT樣式表。今年11月底，對format=xml&xlst={stylesheet}的支援將從維基媒體專案中移除。此外，MediaWiki的1.43（LTS）、1.44、1.45版本也將預設停用該功能。MediaWiki 1.46版本（預計於2026年4月至5月間發布）將全面移除對XSLT樣式表的支援。 [93]
• WDQS舊版端點（query-legacy-full.wikidata.org）將於今年12月底停止運作，並於2026年1月7日正式關閉。該日之後，若使用者未改用SPARQL聯合查詢，則向query.wikidata.org發出的full圖譜查詢請求將失敗或傳回無效結果。團隊建議使用者確保工具和工作流程改用受支援的WDQS端點（主圖譜：https://query.wikidata.org/或學術圖譜：https://query-scholarly.wikidata.org/）。關於遷移和替代存取方式，詳見資料存取與請求查詢頁面。
