2025年第10期技术新闻
[编辑]维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改;不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。
近况更新 - 面向编辑者
- 所有已登入编辑者现在皆可在手机版网站编辑整个页面。在工具列上的“更多”选单中点击“编辑整页”即可。先前编辑者须启用高级模式才能使用这项功能。 [7]
- 请界面管理员协助移除本地
MediaWiki:Common.css中带有“ mw-ref
”的已弃用Cite CSS码。此全域搜寻列出了需清理的维基站点以及需移除的代码,另可参考此范例。参阅CSS迁移项目页面进一步了解如何提供协助。Cite脚注标记(“[1]
”)现在由Parsoid渲染,不再需要上述的已弃用CSS。反向链接的CSS(“mw:referencedBy
”)目前应维持不变。这项清理作业应不会给读者带来明显变化。请在3月20日前协助移除这些代码,若未及时处理,之后将由开发团队代为移除。 - 现在,若在受连锁保护的页面加入文件(例如
[[File:MediaWiki.png]]
),系统将不再限制对文件描述页面的编辑,而仅限制文件新版本的上传。反之,若嵌入文件描述页面(例如{{:File:MediaWiki.png}}
),对描述页面的编辑将受连锁保护限制。 [8][9] - 编辑者若想要将文件还原至较早版本,现在需要与上传文件新版本相同的权限。系统现在会检查“覆盖现存文件
(reupload)
”或“覆盖自己上传的文件(reupload-own)
”权限,并遵守连锁保护。 [10][11] - 现在,管理员在使用Special:大量删除工具列出待删除页面时,可以选择同时列出相关的讨论页和重定向页面,而无需事后再手动处理。 [12]
- 前几期提到单一用户登录(SUL)系统为配合浏览器对跨网域Cookie的限制,登入和账号建立页面将移至中央网域——这项更新将于3、4月向所有用户推出。团队计划于本周为Group0站点上的所有新账号建立流程应用这项更新。参阅SUL3项目页面了解最新时间表和更多细节。
- 自上周以来,部分界面图示在页面尚未加载完全时,错误显示为黑色方块(深色模式中则为白色)。本周将修正此问题。 [13]
- 已新建一个维基: 锡尔赫特语维基百科 (
w:syl:
) [14] 上周有23件社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如,之前老旧版本的手机版Firefox浏览器无法正常加载图片,现已修正此问题。 [15]

Growth Newsletter #33
[编辑]
A quarterly update from the Growth team on our work to improve the new editor experience.
This year, the Growth team is exploring ways to help more new account holders start editing—and do so constructively, meaning their edits are not reverted. Our latest experiments include:
- Gradual rollout of "Add a Link" at English Wikipedia – We are gradually introducing the "Add a Link" structured task to newcomers at English Wikipedia (T386029). This serves as a natural A/B test to measure its impact on activation, retention, and revert rates (T382603). Previous experiments on pilot wikis showed that "Add a Link" increases newcomer participation, particularly by helping them make constructive (non-reverted) edits.
- Testing in-article suggestions for first-time editors – Many new account holders want to contribute but don’t know where to start. To help, we’re piloting a feature that surfaces structured task suggestions directly in an article’s read view for brand-new editors (T385343). These suggestions will appear for logged-in users with no edits, providing a clear, simple way to begin contributing that is surfaced while they read.
Newcomers often struggle to find their place in Wikipedia’s collaborative environment. While experienced editors easily discover events like edit-a-thons and writing campaigns, newcomers often miss out.
- To bridge this gap, we launched the Community Updates module for the Newcomer Homepage. This module is disabled by default, allowing Community Admins to decide how (or if) to use it.
- If your community hosts events, consider setting up a Community Update to engage and welcome newcomers! Learn more on Diff. To configure, visit Special:CommunityConfiguration.
Community Configuration is now available across all wikis, including non-Wikipedia projects (T383910). Community Configuration allows admins to customize various features like Growth features and Automoderator for their communities, and more recently the Babel extension now allows admins to modify configuration:
- Babel customization – Admins can now configure Babel settings (T374348), including category naming, automatic category creation, and more. See an example on Wikimedia Commons.
- Upcoming configurable features – Projects exploring community configuration options include: Incident Reporting System (T374113) and Cite backlinks (T378807).
Mentors play a key role in guiding new editors. If you’re interested in mentoring, or turning mentorship on at your wiki, check out the Mentorship FAQ
- Starting February 17, 100% of new accounts at English Wikipedia will be assigned a mentor (T384505).
- At Spanish Wikipedia, on 50% of newcomers get a mentor. Experienced contributors are encouraged to join mentorship so that Spanish Wikipedia can provide a mentor to all new users.
Looking Ahead
[编辑]In the coming months, we will continue balancing maintenance work—such as deprecating EditGrowth Config (T367574) and migrating Statslib (T359352) — with user-facing improvements that support new editors and foster the next generation of contributors.

近况更新 - 面向编辑者
- 在多个维基上使用密码管理工具的编辑者可能会注意到将来的变化。我们的维基提供密码管理工具跨网域重复使用密码资讯的方式最近已经更新,因此有些密码管理工具现在可能会为您提供您为不同维基媒体网站储存的登入凭证。有些密码管理工具已经这么做了,现在正在为更多的维基媒体网域进行此操作。这是SUL3专案的一部分,旨在改善我们的单一登入系统的运作方式,并使其与不断变更的网络浏览器相容。 [16][17]
- 维基百科App团队邀请有兴趣的用户协助改善维基百科的离线和受限网络使用情况。经过Afrika Baraza和上次ESEAP通话会议的讨论后,我们正在探讨搜寻、编辑、离线访问等关键挑战,即将召开的焦点团体将深入探讨这些主题。欢迎以任何语言参与,活动将提供口译服务。如有任何想法,欢迎参与讨论或寄信至

2025年第12期技术新闻
[编辑]维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改;不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。
本周要闻
- 每年春秋分前后,维基媒体基金会的网站可靠性工程团队例行执行资料中心服务器切换,将所有流量从主要服务器导向备用服务器。这个半年一次的程序确保了我们在面临危机时,可以随时使用备援资料中心。多亏了Listen to Wikipedia工具,您可以实际听到切换的过程:开始之前,您会听到源源不绝的编辑声音;然后,当系统进入短暂的只读阶段时,声音会停止数分钟,切换完成后才会恢复。更多关于此次切换的背景和细节,请参阅Diff文章。如果您想聆听即将到来的服务器切换,请于3月19日 14:00 UTC收听各维基的声音。
近况更新 - 面向编辑者
- 经改良的内容翻译工具面板现已供10个维基百科使用,并即将在所有维基百科推出。有了统一的面板,桌面装置使用者现在可以翻译条目章节;探索并存取以主题为基础的条目建议筛选器(起初仅限移动设备);从维基专题和编辑活动中探索并存取社群定义的清单筛选器,也称为“收藏集”(Collections)。
- 维基共享资源引入新的档案分类选择系统:如果某分类含有一个或多个子分类,点击箭头即可在表单中展开子分类清单,以便选取正确分类。父分类名称会持续显示在顶部,可随时返回父分类。这应该可以减少志愿者修复/建立新分类的工作量。这项变更同样适用于移动设备。这些变更是上传向导改进计划的一部分。
- 社群技术团队正在征求维基社群参与试用多重封锁功能以及更新后的Special:封禁页面,预定3月底进行。多重封锁可让管理员同时对同一使用者施加多种不同类型的封锁。如果您是管理员或监管员,并希望我们与您的社群讨论参与试行的事宜,请在专案讨论页留言。
- 3月25日开始,编辑团队将在12个维基百科站点测试编辑检查的新功能:多重检查。在这些维基中,一半的新手在编辑时会看到所有参考检查,而另一半则如同往常只看到一个。此测试旨在观察编辑者在单一编辑阶段中看到多个(且相关的)参考检查时,是否会感到困惑或气馁。在这些维基中,有显示参考检查的编辑所使用的标签将被简化,因为一笔编辑中可能会显示多个标签。Phabricator工单记录了变更的标签。 [18]
- 全域提醒机器人是一项通知使用者其临时权限即将到期的服务,现已支援在讯息标题中使用权限群组的本地化名称。请翻译人员参阅说明文件和现有译文清单,检查其语言是否需要更新或新增译文。
- Special:全域设置中的性别设定——用来设定软件在界面讯息中应该如何称呼您——现在可以如预期般覆写本地预设值。 [19]
上周有26件社群提交的工单得到解决。 例如,Android版维基百科App修正了使用者以多种语言浏览和搜寻时发生的错误。 [20]

2025年第13期技术新闻
[编辑]维基媒体技术社群现在发布最新的技术新闻。请告知其他用户这些更改;不是所有的更改都会对您造成影响。技术新闻提供其他语言的翻译版本。
本周要闻
- 维基媒体基金会正在征求您对下年度目标与关键结果(OKR)草案的反馈意见,这些OKR将影响基金会的下一个财政年度(从7月开始)的产品与技术优先事项。“目标”是广泛的高层次领域,而“关键成果”则是追踪目标成功与否的可衡量方式。请在讨论页分享您的意见,语言不限,最好在4月底之前提出。
近况更新 - 面向编辑者
- CampaignEvents扩充功能将于2025年4月部署至多个维基(详情请见部署计划),团队已开始与确定部署的维基社群接触。该扩充功能提供了在维基上筹办、管理和推广协作活动(如Event活动、编辑松、维基专题)的工具。该扩充功能有三个工具:活动报名、协作清单和邀请清单。该扩充功能目前已部署至13个维基百科(包括中文、英语、法语、西班牙语等),以及维基数据。若有任何问题或请求,请至扩充功能讨论页或Phabricator(加上
#campaigns-product-team标签)。 - 3月31日当周开始,维基站点将能够自行设定哪些使用者群组可以在活动报名功能中检视非公开报名者,这是CampaignEvents扩充功能的一部分。预设情况下,活动筹办人员和本地管理员将能够检视非公开报名者。这改变了目前的行为,即只有活动筹办人员才能检视非公开报名者。维基社群在Phabricator请求变更配置(加上
#campaigns-product-team标签)来变更预设配置。过往活动的参与者可随时取消报名。 - 有自订
MediaWiki:Sidebar的维基的管理员应检查其之中是否列有特殊页面项目。若没有,管理员应使用 * specialpages-url|specialpages
来加入该项目。带有预设侧边栏的维基将在4月看到该链接从工具栏移至侧边栏。 [21] - Minerva外观(手机版网站)将重要通知和常规通知整合进一个铃铛图示
中。Minerva长期存在一个错误,仅在有未读“重要通知”时才会显示新通知标示。现已修正此问题。未来在Minerva中,无论您有未读的重要通知或常规通知,铃铛图示上方皆会显示未读通知数量。 [22]
上周有23件社群提交的工单得到解决。
近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者
- 视觉化编辑器引入了新的用户端勾点,供开发者在整合视觉化编辑器目标生命周期时使用。该勾点应该会取代现有的生命周期相关勾点,并且在不同平台之间更加一致。此外,新的勾点也将适用于全文编辑以外的视觉化编辑,让小工具也能与讨论工具(DiscussionTools)中的编辑器互动。编辑团队打算弃用并最终移除旧的生命周期勾点,因此团队很关注任何新勾点未涵盖的用例,如有相关资讯,欢迎在工单中与团队分享。
- 使用
mw.Api
这一JavaScript函式库的开发者,现在可以使用userAgent
参数来识别使用该函式库的工具:var api = new mw.Api( { userAgent: 'GadgetNameHere/1.0.1' } );
。如果您有在维护小工具或使用者脚本,请务必设置使用者代理(user agent),这将有助于函式库和服务器的维护,以及区分合法与非法的流量。 [23][24] 本周稍晚代码更新细节: MediaWiki
