Recent changes
 * Over the next three weeks, dark mode will become available for all users, both logged-in and logged-out, starting with the mobile web version. This fulfils one of the top-requested community wishes, and improves low-contrast reading and usage in low-light settings. As part of these changes, dark mode will also work on User-pages and Portals. There is more information in the latest Web team update.
 * Logged-in users can now set global preferences for the text-size and dark-mode, thanks to a combined effort across Foundation teams. This allows Wikimedians using multiple wikis to set up a consistent reading experience easily, for example by switching between light and dark mode only once for all wikis.
 * If you use a very old web browser some features might not work on the Wikimedia wikis. This affects Internet Explorer 11 and versions of Chrome, Firefox and Safari older than 2016. This change makes it possible to use new CSS features and to send less code to all readers.
 * Wikipedia Admins can customize local wiki configuration options easily using Community Configuration. Community Configuration was created to allow communities to customize how some features work, because each language wiki has unique needs. At the moment, admins can configure Growth features on their home wikis, in order to better recruit and retain new editors. More options will be provided in the coming months.
 * Editors interested in language issues that are related to Unicode standards, can now discuss those topics at a new conversation space in MediaWiki.org. The Wikimedia Foundation is now a member of the Unicode Consortium, and the coordination group can collaboratively review the issues discussed and, where appropriate, bring them to the attention of the Unicode Consortium.
 * One new wiki has been created: a in Mandailing

Problems
 * Editors can once again click on links within the visual editor's citation-preview, thanks to a bug fix by the Editing Team.

Future changes
 * Please help us to improve Tech News by taking this short survey. The goal is to better meet the needs of the various types of people who read Tech News. The survey will be open for 2 weeks. The survey is covered by this privacy statement. Some translations are available.

Firooz Bahram High School
Hello, would you take a look at this? The Dutch language text reads: ''de beste bron van informatie over sh argh newspaper. Deze website is te koop!, meaning: the best source of information about argh newspaper. this website is for sale''. You might wish to change the description. Cheers.

 * Thanks for the notice. That was a really old edit, but I removed the entire reference since it wasn't even archived anywhere so can't fix it. Jonatan Svensson Glad (talk) 20:35, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Papyrus 121
Best regards. I noticed that you added the orphan tag in the article Papyrus 121 (Greek magical papyrus). I already connected it with the article Jehovah, so I request you to remove it. Thank you very much for your help.--Jairon Levid Abimael Caál Orozco (talk) 16:50, 7 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Sure thing! Jonatan Svensson Glad (talk) 20:36, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
