Tech News: 2025-51

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

Updates for editors

• View all 18 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, one of the fixes addressed an issue for temporary accounts adding an external URL, which triggered an hCaptcha request in more cases than intended, and did not display the required popup on the first attempt to publish the edit. [1]

Updates for technical contributors

• To improve database and site performance, external links to Wikimedia projects will no longer be stored in the database. This means they will not be searchable in Special:LinkSearch, will not be checked by the Spam Blacklist or AbuseFilter as new links, and will not be in the externallinks table on database replicas. In the future this may be extended to other highly-linked trusted websites on a per-wiki basis, such as Creative Commons links on Wikimedia Commons. [2]
• Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki

Vorgeschlagene Kategorie

Hallo @XRay,

Dieses Foto scheint eine ehemalige Leuchtreklame zu sein. Ich schlage diese Kategorie vor, Category:Damaged neon signs. Danke, -- Ooligan (talk) 07:16, 18 December 2025 (UTC)

@Ooligan: Das erscheint mir die bessere Wahl zu sein. Ein Neon-Schild ist ja nicht mehr vorhanden. Ich ändere das. Danke. BTW: Auch die andere Wahl des Neon-Schilds (in den USA) habe ich angepasst. Es sollte immer die passende Unterkategorie verwendet werden, wenn sie vorhanden ist. Sonst werden die Kategorien zu unübersichtlich. Darf ich noch einen Tipp geben? Auf deiner Benutzerseite befinden sich keine Babelbausteine bezüglich deiner Sprachkenntnisse. Die Bausteine erleichtern die Kommunikation. --XRay 💬 07:20, 18 December 2025 (UTC)

Tech News: 2025-52

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

Updates for editors

• From January, edit filters can be set to automatically suppress their details such as rules and list of attempted edits and actions. This will help oversighters use edit filters to prevent doxxing or other suppressible material. [3]
• The next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 12 January 2026 because of the end of year holidays. Thank you to all of the translators, and people who submitted content or feedback, this year.
• View all 16 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, the crash that occurred when tapping "First Steps" in the Wikipedia Android Year in Review has now been fixed, and the feature opens as expected. [4]

Updates for technical contributors

• Interface elements such as diffs and categories generated by MediaWiki used to have the attribute data-mw="interface" to distinguish from wiki content. The attribute has been replaced with data-mw-interface="", to avoid potential conflicts with other data-mw attributes, which are generated by Parsoid. [5]
• There is no new MediaWiki version this week or next week.

Meetings and events

• The Wikimedia Hackathon Northwestern Europe 2026 will take place on 13-14 March 2026 in Arnhem, the Netherlands. Applications just opened mid-December and will close in mid-January or earlier if capacity is reached. With space for approximately 100 participants, early application is encouraged.
