Weekly highlight
Editors and volunteer developers interested in data visualisation can now test the new software for charts. Its early version is available on beta Commons and beta Wikipedia. This is an important milestone before making charts available on regular wikis. You can read more about this project update and help to test the charts.
Feature news
Editors who use the Spécial:Modèles inutilisés page can now filter out pages which are expected to be there permanently, such as sandboxes, test-cases, and templates that are always substituted. Editors can add the new magic word __EXPECTUNUSEDTEMPLATE__ to a template page to hide it from the listing. Thanks to Sophivorus and DannyS712 for these improvements.
Editors who use the New Topic tool on discussion pages, will now be reminded to add a section header, which should help reduce the quantity of newcomers who add sections without a header.You can read more about that, and 28 other community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week.
Last week, some Toolforge tools had occasional connection problems. The cause is still being investigated, but the problems have been resolved for now.
Translation administrators at multilingual wikis, when editing multiple translation units, can now easily mark which changes require updates to the translation. This is possible with the new dropdown menu.
Project updates
A new draft text of a policy discussing the use of Wikimedia's APIs has been published on Meta-Wiki. The draft text does not reflect a change in policy around the APIs; instead, it is an attempt to codify existing API rules. Comments, questions, and suggestions are welcome on the proposed update’s talk page until September 13 or until those discussions have concluded.

Wikimedia projects integration:
We have worked on moving the Wikidata Item link out of the toolbox section of the sidebar of an article. It has been rolled out to the first wikis: ukwiki, hewiki, fawiki (phab:T66315)

Actualités des fonctionnalités
Les administrateurs peuvent désormais tester la fonctionnalité des comptes temporaires sur test2wiki. Cela a été fait pour permettre des tests inter-wikis de comptes temporaires, lorsque ces comptes temporaires passent d'un projet à un autre. La fonctionnalité a été activée sur testwiki il y a quelques semaines. Aucun déploiement supplémentaire de comptes temporaires n'est encore prévu. Les Comptes Temporaires sont un projet visant à créer un nouveau type de compte utilisateur remplaçant les adresses IP des éditeurs non enregistrés qui ne sont plus rendues publiques. Veuillez partager vos opinions et questions sur la page de discussion du projet.
Plus tard cette semaine, les éditeurs des wikis qui utilisent FlaggedRevs (également connu sous le nom de "Modifications en attentes") peuvent remarquer que les indicateurs en haut des articles ont changé. Ce changement rend le système plus cohérent avec le reste de l'interface MediaWiki.
État des beugues
Les éditeurs qui utilisent l'éditeur de wikitexte de 2010 et les boutons d'insertion de caractères ne rencontreront plus de problèmes avec les boutons ajoutant du contenu dans le résumé de modification au lieu de la fenêtre de modification. Vous pouvez en savoir plus à ce sujet et sur les 26 autres tâches soumises par la communauté qui ont été résolues la semaine dernière.
Actualités des projets
Allez lire et voter pour les sujets cibles, qui sont des groupes de souhaits pour corriger un même problème. Les sujets cibles ont été créés pour la nouvelle mouture des Souhaits de la communauté qui est désormais ouverte toute l’année. Le premier lot de sujets cibles est spécifique à la routine de modération, à l’accueil des néophytes, à la minimisation des tâches répétitives et à la priorisation des tâches. Une fois que les bénévoles auront relu et voté pour les sujets cibles, Wikimedia examinera et choisira les sujets cibles à prioriser.
Vous avez un projet et avez envie d’assister un stagiaire pour une mission de trois (3) mois? Outreachy est un programme biannuel permettant à des personnes d’être rémunérées pour un stage débutant en décembre 2024 et finissant en mars 2025; et ils ont besoin de tuteurs ou tutrices et de projets sur lesquels travailler.

New AI Project Manager to join Wikimedia Deutschland: We’re pleased to announce that a new AI project manager will be joining our team next week. Lydia and Jonathan (Director of Engineering) have been prototyping in this area and recently presented their work at the AI_dev summit (YouTube link). Our goal is to bring knowledge graphs and generative AI closer together, making AI more equitable, truthful, participatory, and open. More updates to come soon!
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Feature news
Editors who want to re-use references but with different details such as page numbers, will be able to do so by the end of 2024, using a new sub-referencing feature. You can read more about the project and how to test the prototype.
Editors using tracking categories to identify which pages use specific extensions may notice that six of the categories have been renamed to make them more easily understood and consistent. These categories are automatically added to pages that use specialized MediaWiki extensions. The affected names are for: DynamicPageList, Kartographer, Phonos, RSS, Score, WikiHiero. Wikis that have created the category locally should rename their local creation to match. Thanks to Pppery for these improvements.
Technical volunteers who edit modules and want to get a list of the categories used on a page, can now do so using the categories property of mw.title objects. This enables wikis to configure workflows such as category-specific edit notices. Thanks to SD001 for these improvements.
Bugs status
Your help is needed to check if any pages need to be moved or deleted. A maintenance script was run to clean up unreachable pages (due to Unicode issues or introduction of new namespaces/namespace aliases). The script tried to find appropriate names for the pages (e.g. by following the Unicode changes or by moving pages whose titles on Wikipedia start with Talk:WP: so that their titles start with Wikipedia talk:), but it may have failed for some pages, and moved them to Special:PrefixIndex/T195546/ instead. Your community should check if any pages are listed there, and move them to the correct titles, or delete them if they are no longer needed. A full log (including pages for which appropriate names could be found) is available in phab:P67388.
Editors who volunteer as mentors to newcomers on their wiki are once again able to access lists of potential mentees who they can connect with to offer help and guidance. This functionality was restored thanks to a bug fix. Thank you to Mbch331 for filing the bug report. You can read about that, and 18 other community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week.
Project updates
The application deadline for the Product & Technology Advisory Council (PTAC) has been extended to September 16. Members will help by providing advice to Foundation Product and Technology leadership on short and long term plans, on complex strategic problems, and help to get feedback from more contributors and technical communities. Selected members should expect to spend roughly 5 hours per month for the Council, during the one year pilot. Please consider applying, and spread the word to volunteers you think would make a positive contribution to the committee.
