2023年第14期技术新闻

维基媒体技术社群发布的最新技术新闻。请将这些变动转告其他用户。并非所有更改都会对您产生影响。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻譯版本。

最近变更

• 自动创建巴别扩展所使用的分类的系统有几处重要变动和修补。其中一处变动允许您给创建时自动生成的分类描述插入模板，来将新的分类划入其他分类下。 [1][2][3][4][5]

本周稍晚时期的变更

• MediaWiki的新版本将于4月4日部署于测试维基及MediaWiki.org。它将于4月5日部署至非维基百科wiki及部分维基百科，并于4月6日部署至所有wiki，参见日历。
• 本周起，部分旧浏览器将无法使用维基媒体wiki上的JavaScript。受影响的主要是Internet Explorer 11用户。如果您的电脑上有旧浏览器的话，您可以升级到更新版本。 [6]
• 不推荐使用的jquery.hoverIntent模块已被移除。之前有小工具和用户脚本使用该模块来给JavaScript回应悬浮事件的机制添加一段人工的延迟时间。这些小工具和用户脚本现在需要改用jQuery hover()或on()。迁移指南中可以找到示例。 [7]
• Special:特殊页面中的部分链接将会重新排版。与所有用户有关的链接将会清楚地和与您账户有关的链接分隔开来。 [8]
• 使用新的__ARCHIVEDTALK__魔法字将可以在归档的讨论页面中隐藏回覆按钮。同时还会引入一个新的.mw-archivedtalk CSS类，用于在一个页面的特定小节中隐藏回覆按钮。 [9][10][11]

将来更新

• 在页面中创建图表等数据可视化元素的Vega软件将在未来升级至最新版本。仍使用老旧的1.5版本语法的图表可能会无法正常工作。多数现存的用法已被找到并更新，但您还可以帮忙检查，以及更新本地文档。查看如何找到并修复此类图表的示例

Wikidata weekly summary #567

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

• Discussions
  • New requests for permissions/Bot:
    • RPI2026F1Bot 7 (Add start time (P580) as qualifiers to subreddit (P3984))
    • BotFunast (Task: The bot is already operational in the Tachelhit Wikipedia. One of its main tasks is editing template tags and categories, and creating new ones when necessary, based on a csv database (that you can find in github) . When adding new pages though, a common problem is to link those to Wikidata. This can be unfeasible by hand in a reasonable amount of time, when hundreds of pages, e.g. categories, are added at once. The idea is to have the bot approved for Wikidata, so it can link the pages to their counterparts in other languages automatically.)
