Tech News: 2025-23
[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.
Weekly highlight
- The Chart extension is now available on all Wikimedia wikis. Editors can use this new extension to create interactive data visualizations like bar, line, area, and pie charts. Charts are designed to replace many of the uses of the legacy Graph extension.
Updates for editors
- It is now easier to configure automatic citations for your wiki within the visual editor's citation generator. Administrators can now set a default template by using the
_default
key in the local MediaWiki:Citoid-template-type-map.json page (example diff). Setting this default will also help to future-proof your existing configurations when new item types are added in the future. You can still set templates for individual item types as they will be preferred to the default template. [1] View all 20 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week.
Updates for technical contributors
- Starting the week of June 2, bots logging in using
action=login
oraction=clientlogin
will fail more often. This is because of stronger protections against suspicious logins. Bots using bot passwords or using a loginless authentication method such as OAuth are not affected. If your bot is not using one of those, you should update it; usingaction=login
without a bot password was deprecated in 2016. For most bots, this only requires changing what password the bot uses. [2] - From this week, Wikimedia wikis will allow ES2017 features in JavaScript code for official code, gadgets, and user scripts. The most visible feature of ES2017 is
async
/await
syntax, allowing for easier-to-read code. Until this week, the platform only allowed up to ES2016, and a few months before that, up to ES2015. [3] Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki
Meetings and events
- Scholarship applications to participate in the GLAM Wiki Conference 2025 are now open. The conference will take place from 30 October to 1 November, in Lisbon, Portugal. GLAM contributors who lack the means to support their participation can apply here. Scholarship applications close on June 7th.

Orphaned non-free image File:2025 IPL final poster.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:2025 IPL final poster.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:05, 5 June 2025 (UTC)

Tech News: 2025-24
[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.
Weekly highlight
- The Trust and Safety Product team is finalizing work needed to roll out temporary accounts on large Wikipedias later this month. The team has worked with stewards and other users with extended rights to predict and address many use cases that may arise on larger wikis, so that community members can continue to effectively moderate and patrol temporary accounts. This will be the second of three phases of deployment – the last one will take place in September at the earliest. For more information about the recent developments on the project, see this update. If you have any comments or questions, write on the talk page, and join a CEE Catch Up this Tuesday.
Updates for editors
The watchlist expiry feature allows editors to watch pages for a limited period of time. After that period, the page is automatically removed from your watchlist. Starting this week, you can set a preference for the default period of time to watch pages. The preferences also allow you to set different default watch periods for editing existing pages, pages you create, and when using rollback. [4]

- The appearance of talk pages will change at almost all Wikipedias (some have already received this design change, a few will get these changes later). You can read details about the changes on Diff. It is possible to opt out of these changes in user preferences ("Show discussion activity"). [5][6]
- Users with specific extended rights (including administrators, bureaucrats, checkusers, oversighters, and stewards) can now have IP addresses of all temporary accounts revealed automatically during time-limited periods where they need to combat high-speed account-hopping vandalism. This feature was requested by stewards. [7]
- This week, the Moderator Tools and Machine Learning teams will continue the rollout of a new filter to Recent Changes, releasing it to several more Wikipedias. This filter utilizes the Revert Risk model, which was created by the Research team, to highlight edits that are likely to be reverted and help Recent Changes patrollers identify potentially problematic contributions. The feature will be rolled out to the following Wikipedias: Afrikaans Wikipedia, Belarusian Wikipedia, Bengali Wikipedia, Welsh Wikipedia, Hawaiian Wikipedia, Icelandic Wikipedia, Kazakh Wikipedia, Simple English Wikipedia, Turkish Wikipedia. The rollout will continue in the coming weeks to include the rest of the Wikipedias in this project. [8]
View all 27 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week.
Updates for technical contributors
- AbuseFilter editors active on Meta-Wiki and large Wikipedias are kindly asked to update AbuseFilter to make it compatible with temporary accounts. A link to the instructions and the private lists of filters needing verification are available on Phabricator.
- Lua modules now have access to the name of a page's associated thumbnail image, and on some wikis to the WikiProject assessment information. This is possible using two new properties on mw.title objects, named
pageImage
andpageAssessments
. [9][10] Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki

Continuation of my comment in the IPL edit page
[edit]Hey, my second point which is not visible due to long comment was, replaced the word organized with organised as it is an Indian/UK english word. The same word is used across wikipedia in ICC / other cricket league pages too.
Also I have kept your (t20) and (BCCI) edits as it is.
My sole purpose is to follow standardization/uniformity accross cricket content as it is in football wiki pages too. So I made the change. Hope you get it. Thanks. Editking100 (talk) 18:13, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
- For example in IPL teams shorts description, every team has a different format used. If you compare with the EPL teams, all of them have the same statement. If you agree with this I can change this for uniformity. As I believe in a already complex and layered sport like cricket, let's have some standardization to avoid confusion for the global audience. Cheers Editking100 (talk) 18:16, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
- @Editking100: I think "Franchise cricket league" would be the appropriate short description for all cricket franchise competitions. Vestrian24Bio 07:18, 11 June 2025 (UTC)
- Respectfully, it won't. Even if you go to the wikipedia page of franchises, it'll redirect you to professional leagues. Because leagues happen to have franchises, they themselves are not a franchise league. I mean if we write franchise league, it would be incorrect meaningwise. Also to add on, wikipedia is for all content and the meaning of franchise in sports is different from let's say in business world. So to avoid confusion and to maintain uniformity and standardization we should use the word 'professional leagues' as used by all leagues accross all sports content. Hope you get what I say. Thanks... Editking100 (talk) 17:34, 11 June 2025 (UTC)
- @Editking100, I've also did some research and I agree. Vestrian24Bio 10:34, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
