Tech News: 2018-11
 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
 * 3D models can now be uploaded to Commons.
 * Page Previews has been updated to use HTML for previews. This has fixed many issues. An A/B test was done on English and German Wikipedia to measure how it is used. Other changes were also made.
 * Some edits have to be checked against too many conditions before they can trigger an abuse filter. If that is the reason no filter is triggered the edit will be [ tagged] for review.
 * Auto-saving has been added to the visual editor and the 2017 wikitext editor. Right now it is meant to help if your browser crashes or if you accidentally close a tab.

Problems
 * The abuse filter did not tag all edits that should have been tagged after last week's MediaWiki version had come to the wikis. It was fixed on 9 March (UTC).

Changes later this week
 * You can notify users in edit summaries. They will get a ping just as if they had been mentioned on a wiki page. This was originally planned to happen last week.
 * It is now possible to specify the block parameters for each filter in Special:AbuseFilter. The parameters include block duration and if the user should be blocked from editing their own talk page. The block duration is separate for anonymous and registered users.
 * Octicons-tools.svg A hundred Wikimedia wikis will switch to use the Remex parsing library. This is to replace Tidy. It will happen on 13 and 14 March. Other wikis will be recommended to switch soon when they have fixed the errors that must be fixed. Tidy will be removed in the middle of 2018.
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 13 March. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 14 March. It will be on all wikis from 15 March (calendar).

Meetings
 * Octicons-sync.svg You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 13 March at 19:30 (UTC). See how to join.
 * Octicons-tools.svg You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 14 March at 16:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Changes later this week
 * Some of the interface icons and text sizes will change slightly, as part of the updates for improved accessibility and consistency. These icons are used in many features, including Notifications, Recent Changes, Beta Features, Visual Editor, 2017 Wikitext Editor, Code Editor, and others. While editor toolbars, dialogs, and menus will appear slightly bigger; elements on special pages will be slightly smaller. Functionality will not change.
 * Octicons-tools.svg The deprecated #toc and #toctitle CSS ids have been removed. If your wiki was still using these for fake Tables of Content (ToC) then these might lose their styling. They can be replaced with .toc and .toctitle classes where appropriate.
 * TemplateStyles will be deployed to the Wikivoyages on 28 March 2018.
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 27 March. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 28 March. It will be on all wikis from 29 March (calendar).

Future changes
 * From 9 April, the sort order of categories will be distorted for a short time. We are upgrading versions of an internationalisation library (ICU) and using a maintenance script to update existing database entries. This will last anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on wiki size. Read more details.
 * Changes are coming to search for Serbian projects. Cyrillic and Latin variants of a word and different grammatical forms of a word will be able to find each other. Read more on MediaWiki in Serbian or English.

Problems
 * MediaWiki deployment train has been rolled back to version 1.31.0-wmf.26 on week 13, due to a multiplication of lost connections during MySQL queries. Some of the recent changes may have not been applied. They will be deployed next week.

 * Octicons-tools.svg Tidy will be replaced by RemexHtml on the next set of wikis. On April 4, we plan to turn off Tidy on all Wikiquotes (except frwikiquote) and Wikimedia chapters and user groups wikis. 23 wikis will have Tidy replaced this time.
 * Octicons-tools.svg AbuseFilter will transition to use OOUI starting April 4, and the rule editor will also be changed to a CodeEditor (ACE) similar to what is found on user JavaScript pages. The move to OOUI will continue over the next few weeks.
 * In Special:Preferences, the preference "" is now only visible for users who have opt-out the New Filters for the Watchlist.
 * You can see names of individual abuse filters in Special:AbuseLog. Now if the name of an abuse filter contains some wikisyntax like links, it will not change to a link when displayed.
 * You can now search through filter patterns at Special:AbuseFilter. You may specify either a plain string or a regular expression and the matching filters will show a snippet of their pattern with the match highlighted.

Meetings

 * Octicons-tools.svg On April 11th, we plan to turn off Tidy on all wikis with less than 50 entries in all high priority linter categories. About 60 wikis will have Tidy replaced. Currently about 600 wikis have had Tidy replaced and we have another 300 wikis to go. We plan to finish this transition from Tidy to RemexHtml by end of June 2018. Please follow T175706 to monitor progress of Tidy replacement.

New Page Review Newsletter No.10
Hello, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages! ACTRIAL:
 * ACTRIAL's six month experiment restricting new page creation to (auto)confirmed users ended on 14 March. As expected, a greatly increased number of unsuitable articles and candidates for deletion are showing up in the feed again, and the backlog has since increased already by ~30%. Please consider reviewing a few extra articles each day.

Paid editing
 * Now that ACTRIAL is inoperative pending discussion, please be sure to look for tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary.

Subject-specific notability guidelines
 * The box at the right contains each of the subject-specific notability guidelines, please review any that are relevant BEFORE nominating an article for deletion.
 * Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves with the new version of the notability guidelines for organisations and companies. A further discussion is currently taking  place at: Can a subject specific guideline invalidate the General Notability Guideline?

Nominate competent users for Autopatrolled
 * While patrolling articles, if you find an editor that is particularly competent at creating quality new articles, and that user has created more than 25 articles (rather than stubs), consider nominating them for the 'Autopatrolled' user right HERE.

News To opt-out of future mailings, go here. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:06, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
 * The next issue Wikipedia's newspaper The Signpost has now been published after a long delay. There are some articles in it, including ACTRIAL wrap-up that will be of special interest to New Page Reviewers. Don't hesitate to contribute to the comments sections. The Signpost is one of the best ways to stay up date with news and new developments - please consider subscribing to it. All editors of Wikipedia and associated projects are welcome to submit articles on any topic for consideration by the The Signpost's editorial team for the next issue.

Administrators' newsletter – April 2018
News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2018). Administrator changes
 * Gnome-colors-list-add.svg 331dot • Cordless Larry • ClueBot NG
 * Gnome-colors-list-remove.svg Gogo Dodo • Pb30 • Sebastiankessel • Seicer • SoLando

Guideline and policy news
 * Administrators who have been desysopped due to inactivity are now required to have performed at least one (logged) administrative action in the past 5 years in order to qualify for a resysop without going through a new RfA.
 * Editors who have been found to have engaged in sockpuppetry on at least two occasions after an initial indefinite block, for whatever reason, are now automatically considered banned by the community without the need to start a ban discussion.
 * The notability guideline for organizations and companies has been substantially rewritten following the closure of this request for comment. Among the changes, the guideline more clearly defines the sourcing requirements needed for organizations and companies to be considered notable.
 * The six-month autoconfirmed article creation trial (ACTRIAL) ended on 14 March 2018. The post-trial research report has been published. A request for comment is now underway to determine whether the restrictions from ACTRIAL should be implemented permanently.

Technical news
 * There will soon be a calendar widget at Special:Block, making it easier to set expiries for a specific date and time.

Arbitration
 * The Arbitration Committee is considering a change to the discretionary sanctions procedures which would require an editor to appeal a sanction to the community at WP:AE or WP:AN prior to appealing directly to the Arbitration Committee at WP:ARCA.

Miscellaneous
 * A discussion has closed which concluded that administrators are not required to enable email, though many editors suggested doing so as a matter of best practice.
 * The Foundations' Anti-Harassment Tools team has released the Interaction Timeline. This shows a chronologic history for two users on pages where they have both made edits, which may be helpful in identifying sockpuppetry and investigating editing disputes.

 * Some pages have templates that describe problems with that article. There is now more information for mobile readers and what is wrong with the article and how they could help fix it.
 * You can now thank users for many more actions than edits to a page. This was one of the top ten requests in the Wishlist Survey last year.

You can read more details.
 * Tag filter titles will now work better on wikis where the tag filter title is in a language that is written in another direction than the language of that wiki. This could for example be an English title (written from left to right) on a Hebrew or an Arabic wiki (written from right to left).

Problems

Deletion of Policybazaar page from Wikipedia
Policybazaar's Wikipedia page was deleted recently from Wikipedia with reasons - notability. However, the organization is a reputed firm in India with several mentions in notable news/media sources. It was once nominated for deletion, however It was closen not to be deleted owing to its reputation as a known Indian organization. Saumyaraghav (talk) 07:22, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

I am a consumer of Policybazaar since 2014 and have bought two wheeler and car insurance through them every year. I guess the company must have a wiki page. It is a reputed insurance aggregator in India. I just started talk on my too.. Truthiswinner (talk) 07:46, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

I've bought a health insurance policy from Policybazaar and I'm really very happy with their aftersales services and it's a well-known insurance aggregator in India. It has a large chunk of customers, hence it should have a wiki page so that people come to know more about it and its services. It has a good brand value in the Indian market. A large chunk of Indian population is associated with this brand and availing its services. It's a popular brand in India. Nidhi2989 (talk) 08:38, 7 April 2018 (UTC)


 * The bottom line is that the company does not appear to meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines to qualify for an article. See the deletion log page for the article, and note how the article was deleted per the 2009 Articles for deletion/Policybazaar.com AfD discussion in part for lacking notability. The second and third deletions of the article were for speedy deletion reasons, some revision deletion occurred for copyright infringement at a later time, and the fourth and most recent deletion of the entire article per Articles for deletion/Policybazaar was also for notability problems. Note that while a company or organization may be notable in other arenas of the world, Wikipedia has specific notability guidelines that pertain only to Wikipedia. A company or brand can be very popular or common and still not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines to qualify for an article. North America1000 01:44, 8 April 2018 (UTC)

Nomad Foods - request for help with edits
Hello ,

My name is Sinead Noble and I work in the communications team at Nomad Foods.

I'm seeking to correct a number of inaccuracies about Nomad Foods on its Wikipedia page. In adherence to Wikipedia's best practice guidelines, and due to my conflict of interest, I am not making these edits directly and hoping that either you or someone you recommend from the Wikipedia community can make them on my behalf. These are as follows:

1. Nomad Foods is not a British Virgin Islands-based food company (paragraph one, line one) and our headquarters are not “Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands” (box out, right hand side). Nomad Foods is a “UK-headquartered European frozen food company” (paragraph one, line one). Please refer to our 2016 annual filing with the Securities Exchange Commission, https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1651717/000165171718000011/nomd-20171231x20f.htm which confirms that our HQ address is “No. 1 New Square, Bedfont Lakes Business Park, Feltham, Middlesex TW14 8HA” (box out, right hand side).

2. It is not correct that 85% of Nomad Foods’ revenues are “comprised of Germany, Austria, Italy and the UK” (paragraph one, line two). It is accurate to say that “Nomad Foods’ five largest countries – UK, Italy, Germany, France and Sweden – accounted for a combined 75% of total sales in 2016.” (paragraph one, line two). Please refer to page F-23 of our annual filing with the Securities Exchange Commission https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1651717/000119312517103513/d255179d20f.htm which provides detailed revenue information by country for the full year 2016. Page F-23 can be found two-thirds of the way down the webpage.

3. Nomad Foods was not founded on 1 April 2014 (box out, right hand side) Nomad Foods was formed on “1 June 2015” (box out, right hand side) following the completion of the acquisition of Iglo Food Holdings. Please refer to the announcement press release which you will see is dated 1 June 2015 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1651717/000119312517103513/d255179d20f.htm.

4. The page states that “Nomad subsequently purchased the Findus Group, excluding its operations in the United Kingdom, in November 2015” (paragraph three, line one). This is not correct. The acquisition included the Findus brand in the UK. Please refer to the Daily Mirror (https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/business/findus-crispy-pancakes-been-saved-7634162) regarding the Findus Crispy Pancake product, confirming that the Findus brand in the UK is part of Nomad Group. My suggested edit is that the clause “excluding its operations in the United Kingdom” is deleted and that the rest of the sentence is retained.

5. The financial information is from 2014 and therefore outdated (box out, right hand side) The latest financial results can be found in our 2017 annual filing with the SEC (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1651717/000165171718000013/ex991pressrelease20171231.htm). As noted, Nomad Foods’ 2017 revenues were “EUR 1.957 billion”, operating income was “EUR 243 million”, total equity was “EUR 1.853 billion” euro and number of employees is “3,875 (31 December 2017)”.

Thank you in advance your help - if you have any questions, or require any more information, please don't hesitate to get in touch via my Talk page. There might be a few more requests in the future; if this is the case I will always be open, transparent, and provide verifiable third-party sources for any requests.

Sinead Sinead Noble (talk) 10:07, 3 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Thanks for disclosing your conflict of interest. I notice that you also posted this information on the article's talk page, which I would have recommended had you not done so. In this manner, interested users can provide input. I am busy with other matters in life and on-wiki, and don't forsee myself becoming involved in the matters you have brought up here.


 * Your best bet is to refer to Simple COI request and utilize the Request edit template on the article's talk page to request for an editor to remedy the matter.

Changes later this week
 * Profiling statistics for an abuse filter tell how often edits match the filter. The statistics for the abuse filters were reset after 10000 actions. Wikis can now decide to reset it more or less often. They can file a phabricator task to do so.
 * Octicons-tools.svg Abuse filters will now treat integers and floats more precisely. For example, 5/2 was rounded down to 2 but will now be 2.5 and 2*4 will be the integer 8 and not the floating-point number 8.0. Division values are the only ones changed. For the rest only strict comparisons ( and  ) will be affected leaving the values unchanged.
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 17 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 18 April. It will be on all wikis from 19 April (calendar).

Meetings
 * Octicons-sync.svg You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 17 April at 18:30 (UTC). See how to join.
 * Octicons-sync.svg Octicons-tools.svg You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 18 April at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes
 * The new PDF renderer could not create PDFs from books. Books are in this case collections of pages on a Wikimedia wiki. PediaPress will take over development of the books-to-PDF function.
 * Octicons-tools.svg Pywikibot will no longer support Python 2.7.2 and 2.7.3.
 * Octicons-tools.svg Volunteer developers can fill out the Wikimedia Communities and Contributors survey. The last day is April 22 (UTC). This is a third-party service survey. See the privacy statement.

Food warmer
Hello, my old friend. How are things?

I notice we do not have an article on warmers. I'm think of starting it. Examples include the chafing dish, steam table, and that sort of thing. Any thoughts on a name, or section name within an article?

See also: steamer

Best,

Anna Frodesiak (talk) 05:56, 16 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi : There are some decent search results for Steam table. See right. North America1000 07:17, 16 April 2018 (UTC)


 * More below. Seems like the dim sum steamer could potentially be used to keep it warm. The rice cooker probably doesn't qualify as a warmer, but posting since I found the image, just in case. North America1000 07:19, 16 April 2018 (UTC)


 * One more, from Trivet (unsourced content): "A trivet may often contain a receptacle for a candle that can be lit to keep food warm." Several things can serve to keep food warm! North America1000 10:15, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

Holy moly. There's a ton of stuff. I suggest that you start it. All you'd have to do from there is just copy paste all of the above into it with a lead sentence. :) Really, this is right up your alley. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 10:42, 16 April 2018 (UTC)


 * I haven't been writing much lately; perhaps you should start an article... North America1000 11:06, 16 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Fair enough. I'll stub it soon. Thank you very kindly for digging up all that content. I will certainly use it. Of course, I'm so out of practice, that the piece will be pretty badly written. But that is the magic of the wiki -- others will come and fix my writing. Best wishes, my friend, and thank you again! Anna Frodesiak (talk) 11:23, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Practice makes perfect. Keep me in the loop about when you start a new article, and hope all is well with you and yours in your area of the world. North America1000 11:26, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I will do my best! And all is well here. I hope all is well there. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 12:09, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

Food warmer], and thanks for the refs! :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:12, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for creating the new article. North America1000 02:02, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

Fallen cake listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Fallen cake. Since you had some involvement with the Fallen cake redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Steel1943 (talk) 18:02, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia:CHURN listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect CHURN. Since you had some involvement with the Wikipedia:CHURN redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:43, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

This article, whose most recent afd you closed, is currently at Deletion review/Log/2018 April 11, and this is your pro-forma notification. Looks like the user was trying to renominate for deletion rather than review the old discussion, though. —Cryptic 18:43, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the notification. North America1000 22:06, 11 April 2018 (UTC)

Advice?
Long story short, I tried to clean up some NPOV issues in this article, but my edits keep getting reverted by Pahlevun (who seems to be heavily involved in all Iran Regime-related pages and their oppositions). Tried to take it to the article's Talk page (and asked for others to contribute) to no avail. Recently came across this AfD nomination, and wonder if E.M.Gregory's suggestion would also be viable for this article? The article has a long history of attacks and COI edits, so reverting to an earlier (more neutral) time and protecting the page may a good solution. Thanks for the feedback! London Hall (talk) 19:38, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello : There's a lot of various matters to consider in your post above. I notice that you started an RfC on the talk page, which will hopefully receive some input from other editors. First of all, I am not well-versed in this particular subject matter, and to devise an opinion about reverting, I would have to first perform research and then learn about the topic itself. I really don't presently have time to do all of this, though. In real life, I'm busier these days, and the net connection where I'm presently staying isn't always reliable. As such, I don't want to commit to something I wouldn't be able to follow through upon in a relatively timely manner. A request for page protection could very well be denied, since recently there are only a few editors working on the article, and there has not been a great deal of recent reversions. You could post neutrally-worded notifications of the RfC on the talk pages of the various WikiProjects listed atop the article's talk page, which may lend to more input (see WP:APPNOTE, part of the WP:CANVASS page, for information about devising appropriate notifications). If nobody opines per the RfC, another venue to consider would be Third opinion. North America1000 11:14, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi : Thank you very much for your response. I'll continue to post to see if I can get others involved in this discussion. If you do manage to find any time to have a look at this, please do. The page seems to have been under heavy attack in the last couple of years. Either way, thanks for your advice. London Hall (talk) 15:38, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

Portals WikiProject update, April 22, 2018
Thank you for joining the Portals WikiProject.

Here's our first project-wide update. I hope you enjoy it...

Reboot
The WikiProject reboot has been a success: the new re-envisioned project is up and running, with new members, ongoing discussions about automation, design, and upkeep; maintained task queques; and updates to members, like this, the very first one!

The RfC
As you know, there's a proposal to delete all portals. It started out looking pretty dismal for portals, with primarily posts supporting their demise. It turned out that the proposer didn't post a deletion notice on the very pages being nominated for deletion (a requirement for all deletion discussions). Once that was done, a flood of opposition came in and has apparently turned the tide.

RfCs generally run for 30 days. It started April 8th, and so it has about 14 more days to run its course.

The more work we can do during that time on the portals, the stronger the reasons for keeping them will be. And the more prepared we will be for any MfDs that follow the closing of the RfC.

AWB?
You may be wondering why we asked for AWB experience in the member-sign-up list.

We are gearing up to do maintenance runs on the entire set of portals, and the more people we have who can use AWB, the better.

But we're not quite ready to start this yet.

To be able to use AWB on the portals, we first need to know what the end result needs to be. Like on the news sections, do we comment out the out-of-date ones, or do we place the code to activate the newsbot on those pages? That would require an assessment of WikiNews and its news generating performance (areas covered, volume in each area), etc.

You can help us figure this out at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Portals.

Another area we're gearing up for, to do passes with AWB, are upgrades to the intro sections of portals. Many of these have static (copied/pasted) excerpts that go stale over time.

We're trying to figure out how to make self-updating excerpts to replace the existing static excerpts that are on many portals, and once this is done, AWB will be used to place the new code. See the discussion on this at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Portals.

"What can I do?"
There are 3 major areas of activity right now:

Update the main portal list at Portal:Contents/Portals
There are a few hundred existing portals that are missing from this list.

The list of missing entries, and instructions on what to do, can be found at Portal talk:Contents/Portals.

We need everybody's help on this. It's a big chore for one persons. But, many hands make light work. Please help chip away at this chore as much as you can. A little each day, form all of us, will get this done pretty quick.

Familiarize yourself with the portal system
In addition to browsing the portals in the 2 lists mentioned in the section above, you should take a look at the portal name space itself and what is in it.

That can be done at WikiProject Portals.

Join in on the discussions
There are discussions on many aspects of the WikiProject's operations, with more to come.

Such as about the purposes and functions of portals, design discussions, and so on.

There's even a automated design discussion over at Village Pump Technical, on selective transclusion.

I hope to see you on the talk page.

What's coming?
In addition to the automation efforts mentioned above, we will be looking into how to automate the selection and display of alternating excerpts, and alternating pictures, for the various portal sections.

Watch for these discussions on the Wikiproject's talk page.

Summing up...
Get ready, get set, go! &mdash; The Transhumanist  22:54, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

P.S.: The main example given at the RfC of the problems of portals was Portal:Cricket. Therefore, it's the top priority portal to update. Please lend a hand. - TT
