Wikipedia 23 jaar - interviewtje op radio 1

Vanmorgen vroeg was er een interview met een van ons op NPO Radio 1, ter ere van onze 23ste verjaardag. Het interview is te beluisteren van 1:49:38 tot 1:55:27 --> https://www.nporadio1.nl/uitzendingen/de-nacht-van/668a9aab-a3e5-45c2-ba20-6380f8cc9c25/2024-01-15-de-nacht-van (met dank aan @Sneeuwvlakte voor de link op Discord!)

Dank je wel! Goed en genuanceerd betoog, maar dat was uiteraard te verwachten.;) MartinD (overleg) 15 jan 2024 20:55 (CET)

Die heeft niet graag dat zijn burgerlijke naam en gebruikersnaam samen genoemd worden. Wat nu? (Geen interviews geven, nee, maar misschien kunnen we hem tegemoet komen)  →bertux 15 jan 2024 21:35 (CET)

Gebruikersnaam weggehaald; verbergen is nou ook weer niet nodig. Waardering uitspreken kan hier in De kroeg; diegene heeft een ping gehad en leest het wel →bertux 15 jan 2024 21:57 (CET)

Leuk interview! Vinvlugt (overleg) 16 jan 2024 21:45 (CET)

Tech News: 2024-03

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• Pages that use the JSON contentmodel will now use tabs instead of spaces for auto-indentation. This will significantly reduce the page size. [1]
• Gadgets and personal user scripts may now use JavaScript syntax introduced in ES6 (also known as "ES2015") and ES7 ("ES2016"). MediaWiki validates the source code to protect other site functionality from syntax errors, and to ensure scripts are valid in all supported browsers. Previously, Gadgets could use the requiresES6 option. This option is no longer needed and will be removed in the future. [2]
• Bot passwords and owner-only OAuth consumers can now be restricted to allow editing only specific pages. [3]
• You can now thank edits made by bots. [4]
• An update on the status of the Community Wishlist Survey for 2024 has been published. Please read and give your feedback.

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 16 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 17 January. It will be on all wikis from 18 January (calendar). [5][6]
• Starting on January 17, it will not be possible to login to Wikimedia wikis from some specific old versions of the Chrome browser (versions 51–66, released between 2016 and 2018). Additionally, users of iOS 12, or Safari on Mac OS 10.14, may need to login to each wiki separately. [7]
• The jquery.cookie module was deprecated and replaced with the mediawiki.cookie module last year. A script has now been run to replace any remaining uses, and this week the temporary alias will be removed. [8]

Future changes

• Wikimedia Deutschland is working to make reusing references easier. They are looking for people who are interested in participating in individual video calls for user research in January and February.
