  • Content Translation: A decade of consistent improvements to the Content Translation tool yields over two million Wikipedia articles.
  • Charts Extension: After successfully deploying the extension on Italian, Swedish, and Hebrew Wikipedia, we are moving forward with the next phase of deployment. Please consult our page to discover when the new Charts extension will be deployed on your wiki.
  • Abstract Wikipedia: Where Abstract Wikipedia fits into the new Wikimedia AI strategy.
  • Tech News: The “Get shortened URL” link on the sidebar now includes a QR code. Wikimedia site users can now use it by scanning or downloading it to quickly share and access shared content from Wikimedia sites, conveniently. More updates from Tech News week 19 and 20.
  • Topical Lists: Read about the important role of topical lists in supporting campaigns and editing, as well as strategies for the future development, implementation, and sustainment of list-building support.
  • Two-factor Authentication: From May 20, 2025, oversighters and checkusers will need to have their accounts secured with two-factor authentication (2FA) to be able to use their advanced rights. In the future, this requirement may be extended to other users with advanced rights. Read the announcement.
  • Mobile Apps: The iOS app team is experimenting with an "Activity Tab" on Turkish, Spanish, French, and Chinese Wikipedias to see if inviting new editors to add images through Suggested Edits increases engagement. This insight will guide future improvements to the app experience.

Question from Maxim5789 on Mengistu Haile Mariam (13:33, 21 May 2025)

[edit]

Mengistu turned 88 today, so it's wise to change his age. --Maxim5789 (talk) 13:33, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Maxim5789 OK, so edit is and cite a reliable source as needed. FULBERT (talk) 13:36, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Antoss090909 (19:22, 22 May 2025)

[edit]

Hello! I would like to create on wikipedia about one of my books, could I? --Antoss090909 (talk) 19:22, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Antoss090909 Writing about yourself or things that you have a relationship with is usually considered a conflict of interest WP:COI. Likewise, as Wikipedia is an encyclopedia WP:PILLARS, any article on books or other research or creative works would first need to demonstrate notability WP:N. So, even if your book passes notability, there would still likely be a conflict of interest in writing about it yourself. FULBERT (talk) 06:49, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Billtrushel (12:55, 23 May 2025)

[edit]

I noticed that some of the early history of radio station WNUF in New Kensington, PA and also the early history of WPGH-TV in Pittsburgh, PA that used to be there has been deleted. Why was this done and who did it? Any information you can provide will be helpful. Thank you, Bill Truwhel --Billtrushel (talk) 12:55, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Billtrushel Can you please share a link to what you are looking at so I can see? FULBERT (talk) 06:45, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Tool of the week

  • Wikidata Toolkit The Wikidata Toolkit is an open-source Java library for using data from Wikidata and other Wikibase sites. Its main goal is to make it easy for external developers to take advantage of this data in their own applications.

Other Noteworthy Stuff

  • A discussion on Meta about a very delicate issue for the development of Abstract Wikipedia is now open: where to store the abstract content that will be developed through functions from Wikifunctions and data from Wikidata. Some of the hypothesis involve Wikidata. You can read the various hypothesis and have your say at Abstract Wikipedia/Location of Abstract Content.
