 * Tool of the week
 * Wikidata Atlas is a system allows the user to search for different types of entities (with geo-coordinates) on Wikidata and visualize them on a world map. (Feedback is very welcome to help evaluate and improve the tool.)
 * Check out a similar tool: wiki-atlas


 * Other Noteworthy Stuff
 * Wikidata:Wwwyzzerdd got an update where it now will try to predict good statements to add to Wikidata from Wikipedia articles.
 * Writing SPARQL queries can be very challenging. You can find inspiration by browsing and searching in this dataset of 2,400 queries collected from Wikidata. (source)
 * The French Wikipedia now uses a Wikidata-based list for the pages on specific dates, without relying on ListeriaBot. Who was born on a December 19th and has an article in French? You now can have the answer thanks to a Wikidata query by going to the page 1er décembre on frwiki and clicking on the infobox link " Naissances du jour ". This is a link to a Wikidata list provided by the query service. The query is generated by the template fr:Modèle:Naissances un jour du mois. This follows another such template used to find all persons with a certain surname on frwiki, used on all surnames pages and on some disambiguation pages, fr:Modèle:Liste des personnes ou_personnages par prénom. For the surname Victor (Q539581) (view with Reasonator, SQID) this generates on the page Victor_(prénom) a query such as this one.
 * Wikidata now has more than 100,000,000 items! Exactly which item was the 100 millionth is unknown as of writing, but there are some clues for anyone who wants to dig into it.
 * Survey: What are your most important Wikimedia content partnerships tools in 2022? Closes on January 8, 2023.
 * Community Wishlist Survey 2023 opens in January until Monday, Feb 6, 2023
 * There is a new website to collect contact information for heritage organizations in Georgia for the purpose of disaster response with the data coming from Wikidata.
 * Wikibase 1.38 release is delayed until January 2023
 * Job opportunities
 * Postdoc, PhDs, and technician opportunities related to Wikibase project at University of Groningen

Tech News: 2022-51
 Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Tech News
 * Because of the holidays the next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 9 January 2023.

Recent changes
 * On a user's contributions page, you can filter it for edits with a tag like 'reverted'. Now, you can also filter for all edits that are not tagged like that. This was part of a Community Wishlist 2022 request.
 * Octicons-tools.svg A new function has been used for gadget developers to add content underneath the title on article pages. This is considered a stable API that should work across all skins. Documentation is available.
 * Octicons-tools.svg One of our test wikis is now being served from a new infrastructure powered by Kubernetes (read more). More Wikis will switch to this new infrastructure in early 2023. Please test and let us know of any issues.

Problems
 * Last week, all wikis had no edit access for 9 minutes. This was caused by a database problem.

Changes later this week
 * There is no new MediaWiki version this week or next week.
 * The word "" is very short in some languages, such as Arabic (" ردّ "). This makes the button on talk pages difficult to use. An arrow icon will be added to those languages. This will only be visible to editors who have the Beta Feature turned on.

Future changes
 * Edits can be automatically "tagged" by the system software or the system. Those tags link to a help page about the tags. Soon they will also link to Recent Changes to let you see other edits tagged this way. This was a Community Wishlist 2022 request.
 * The Trust & Safety tools team have shared new plans for building the Private Incident Reporting System. The system will make it easier for editors to ask for help if they are harassed or abused.
 * Realtime Preview for Wikitext is coming out of beta as an enabled feature for every user of the 2010 Wikitext editor in the week of January 9, 2023. It will be available to use via the toolbar in the 2010 Wikitext editor. The feature was the 4th most popular wish of the Community Wishlist Survey 2021.

Events
 * You can now register for the Wikimedia Hackathon 2023, taking place on May 19–21 in Athens, Greece. You can also apply for a scholarship until January 14th.

Always precious
Ten years ago, you were found precious. That's what you are, always. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:42, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

Draft article: Publications Distribution Cooperative
Hi Andy. I hope I'm doing this right - it's the first time I've ever left a message for another editor. Back in May 2021 year you taught me and a few others from the Coventry Society the rudiments of being a Wikipedia author and I wrote an article that you thought met the pubishing requirements: Coventry Labourers' and Artizans' Co-operative. Sure enough, it's stayed up there. Recently I've helped a colleague write another article, on Publications Distribution Co-operative. However, after publication it was demoted to draft status. We've done considerable further work on it and it now sits as a draft - Draft:Publications Distribution Cooperative. I wonder if you would be kind enough to review this improved version and authorise its publication. Apologies for any incorrect use of terminology or lack of required information. Warwickshire Warrener (talk) 23:16, 11 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Yes, I remember. That's a very well-written article on a clearly notable subject, and I'd be happy to publish it once a couple of issues are addressed. These relate to referencing - there are entre paragraphs and sections (for example, second paragraph of "History"; entre "Stricture", "Finance" and especially "Legacy" sections) with no citations. Please can you add them? The message you left here was correctly formatted, BTW, but I've made the draft-article name a link, as you can see above. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:03, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Andy. We've added a number of references in the sections that were lacking them. Hopefully it's ready for publishing - what do you reckon? John Warwickshire Warrener (talk) 16:51, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
 * That's much better, thank you, but not quite there yet. For example, statements like "The presence of PDC as a national distributor encouraged the development and growth of new publications as well as supporting the new shops"; "...PDC was set up in autumn 1976 by an initial group of five people supported by representatives from radical publications and booksellers"; "The original London-based PDC divided into two groups..." & the entite "Publications distributed by PDC and S&N" section all lack citations.  Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:19, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Andy. We've done more work on ths and are pretty confident it's ready. Happy to delete anything you reckon isn't up to standard on citations. Happy New Year! John (Warwickshire Warrener) Warwickshire Warrener (talk) 21:28, 15 January 2023 (UTC)

December greetings
Latest pics, with an opera discovery and some snow. Today my talk has a DYK that was planned for 22 November, among the recent deaths the author of Duck, Death and the Tulip, and now a choir pic of "our" concert last Sunday, likely to become next year's lead image. Enjoy. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:04, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

Today, pictured, the soprano of our choral concert of the year. More in the context: User talk:Gerda Arendt, in case of interest. - Enjoy the season! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:45, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
