Naujausi keitimai
- There is now an experimental Wikimedia maps service. You can give feedback here. [1][2]
- Last week a few issues with UploadWizard were fixed. Before this was done, UploadWizard would stop you from uploading your files if something went wrong. [3][4][5][6]
- Daugiau Vikipedijų gali naudotis informacija iš bet kokių Vikiduomenų elementų bet kuriame Vikipedijos straipsnyje. Anksčiau jie galėjo naudotis Vikiduomenų elementu, kuris sutapo su straipsnio subjektu. [7]
- The VisualEditor welcome dialogue has been changed. The intention is to make it more helpful for new users. [8]
Problemos
- Wikimedia Labs' HTTPS certificate expired for most of Tuesday 15 September. To reach Wikimedia Labs and Tool Labs securely you had to ignore your browser's security error message. There was no risk to data security during this time. [9]
- Last week the notification system was split into two parts. This was temporarily undone because of a bug and performance concerns. It will return to two parts this week. [10][11]
- UploadWizard couldn't upload files larger than 5 MB when using chunked uploads. This has now been fixed. [12]

- Puslapių perkėlimo įrankis buvo pakeistas į naują išvaizdą formoms. [13]
- You can now choose whether to extend a link or not when editing one in VisualEditor. This means it is easier to choose how much of what you type before and after the link is part of it. [14]
- Vikiknygos dabar jau gali naudotis duomenimis iš Vikiduomenų. [15]
