Wikimedia Apps newsletter – Third quarter of 2024
Hello, and welcome to the app's third newsletter of 2024! In this edition, we will highlight the accomplishments and progress made during July, August, and September 2024!
iOS Updates
Over 20,000 images have been added via the "Add an Image" feature across both iOS and Android! (T372954), good opportunity to try it yourself ;) This tool allows users to enhance Wikipedia articles by adding relevant images. It’s a great way to contribute and improve the visual experience for readers.
The iOS team kicked off the Alt Text experiment to improve image descriptions for accessibility. This feature helps ensure that visually impaired users can better understand the content of images through descriptive text.
The iOS App has been transitioning from a primarily reader-focused app, to an app that fully supports both reading and editing. After adding a number of editing features, the navigation system of the app needs to grow and change to support them and future additions. Improving our navigation will allow for more app users to discover editing features, and allow experienced users quicker access to their most-used tools. This refresh incorporates findings from usability testing with multiple variants of the App's navigation. The team is currently planning phased rollouts over the coming year to improve user experience. (Phase 1: T373714)
Android Updates
Improvements were made to the Places feature in response to user feedback, including larger cluster icons and a Wikipedia logo for articles without images (T371067, T370094). Also, the team is exploring designs to allow users to explore articles from multiple language wikis simultaneously and will adjust the zoom logic to show nearby locations upon launch (T352757, T368792).
- WikiTrivia Game
The team prepared for the WikiTrivia Game during a hackathon, selecting a data source and creating initial designs (T371508, T371510).
Work began on adding Recommended Content to search, iterating on design concepts and testing performance (T371613).
The team is now engaging with several wikis to implement Machine-Assisted Article Descriptions based on prior experimental results.
- Sharing reading lists
Android users can now share reading lists with others, expanding community collaboration (T370703).
And some performance enhancements: Revision tags for app edits were successfully implemented (T366731, T366732).
得益于志愿开发者的贡献，该应用现在支持在 Pixel 设备上分享 URL (T370020).
Stay tuned for future updates as we continue to enhance your Wikipedia experience! And you can subscribe to this newsletter.

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2024-42
The winner this Translation of the week is
Please be bold and help translate this article!
The little Danes experiment was a 1951 Danish operation where 22 Greenlandic Inuit children were sent to Danish foster families in an attempt to re-educate them as "little Danes". While the children were all supposed to be orphans, most were not. Six children were adopted while in Denmark, and sixteen returned to Greenland, only to be placed in Danish-speaking orphanages and never live with their families again. Half of the children experienced mental health disturbances, and half of them died in young adulthood. The government of Denmark officially apologised in 2020, after several years of demands from Greenlandic officials.

Press, articles, blog posts, videos
- Blogs
- Small data, slow data − a SNAIL approach to Wikidata: discusses the value of small, carefully curated datasets in the era of big data. It emphasizes the importance of taking a methodical, "snail-paced" approach to data collection and analysis, which can lead to more meaningful and accurate insights. The blogpost also highlights how this approach can complement the broader trends of big data, ensuring that detailed, high-quality data is not overlooked.
- Papers
- "WoolNet: Finding and Visualising Paths in Knowledge Graphs" given two or more entities requested by a user, the system finds and visualises paths that connect these entities, forming a topical subgraph of Wikidata (Torres Gutiérrez and Hogan)
- Videos

- Notebooks
Tool of the week
- Elemwala (এলেমওয়ালা) (https://elemwala.toolforge.org): is a proof-of-concept interface that allows you to input abstract content and get natural language text in a given output language. There may well be errors with particular inputs, and the text may not be quite as natural as you might expect, but that's where your improvements to your language's lexemes, other Wikidata items, and the tool's source code come in!
- mlscores: Tool for calculating multilinguality score of Wikidata items (including properties). E.g. for Wikidata (Q2013), the scores are - en: 99.66%, fr: 89.49%, es: 84.07%, pt: 68.47%. For instance of (P31), the scores are - en: 99.86%, fr: 87.12%, es: 80.83%, pt: 61.37%.
Other Noteworthy Stuff
- Launch of WikiProject Deprecate P642: The goal of this project is to prepare for deprecation, and eventual removal, of the property of (P642). Currently, of (P642) is labeled as "being deprecated", meaning its use is still allowed, but discouraged. From a peak of around 900,000 uses, the property now has around 700,000 uses (see status here). Our goal is to reduce that as much as possible in a systematic way, while ensuring that appropriate properties exist to replace all valid uses of of (P642). The latter is key to officially deprecating the property. Before removing the property, we want to get as close to zero uses as possible.

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2024-43
The winner this Translation of the week is
Please be bold and help translate this article!
Kharayeb (Arabic: الخرايب) is a historic town in the Sidon District in the South Governorate, Lebanon. The town is 77 km (48 mi) south of Beirut, and stands at an average altitude of 190 m (620 ft) above sea level. The town boasts a rich historical legacy, with archaeological excavations revealing a complex settlement history spanning from Prehistory to the Ottoman period. Notably, Kharayeb's origins can be traced back to the Persian period (539–330 BC), when it played a pivotal role in the region's agricultural and economic landscape, culminating in the construction of its Phoenician temple around the 6th century BC.

- New requests for permissions/Bot:
- CarbonBot - (1) Add default mul labels to given and family names when the item has an existing default label with a mul language (2) Remove duplicated aliases matching the items mul label, when the item has a native label in with a mul language. As mul has not been fully adopted, a limited of aliases would be modified each day to ensure existing workflows are not disrupted. It is expected that these tasks will apply to roughly 800,000 given and family names.

2024年第43期技术新闻
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
- 移动应用程序团队发布iOS应用程序导览功能更新，目前已在最新的App store版本中推出。团队新增了“个人资料”功能表，可让您从条目显示画面中轻松存取通知和监视清单等给编辑者的功能，并将“捐款”按钮移至更方便读者存取的位置。这是规模庞大的导览更新计划的第一阶段，帮助iOS应用程序从一个主要以读者为中心的应用程序，转变成一个完全支援阅读和编辑的应用程序。近年来，维基媒体基金会根据志愿者的请求，新增了许多编辑功能以及对维基交流的支援。
近况更新 - 面向编辑者
- 维基百科读者现在可以下载浏览器扩展程序，尝试一些早期构想的潜在功能，包括推荐条目供进一步阅读、自动总结条目、改善搜寻功能等。参阅网页团队的“内容探索实验”页面了解更多，订阅电子报随时掌握新讯。
- 本月稍晚，这12个维基的未登录编辑者将开始获得自动建立的临时账号。试行维基清单可能会稍有变动——可能会移除维基，但不会再新增。临时账号是一种新的用户账号类型，使未登录编辑者的隐私更受保护，也让社群成员更容易与他们沟通。如果您在这12个维基上维护任何工具、机器人或小工具，，或可供未登入用户使用，请检查其是否需要更新，以应对临时账号。参阅代码更新指南。参阅所有维基的部署计划。
- 查看上周解决的共33个社群提交工单。 例如，南恩德贝莱语、潘诺尼亚卢森尼亚语、奥博洛语、伊班语、傣那语维基百科语言版本已于上周创建。 [17][18][19][20][21]
- 现在可以在Wikifunctions使用维基数据词位建立函数，通过上周新推出的“维基数据词位”类型。当您进入这些函式之一时，UI会提供一个词位选择器，帮助您从维基数据挑选与您输入的单词相符的词位。点击执行后，您所选取的词位会从维基数据撷取，转换成“维基数据词位”类型，传送至所选的函数中。参阅最新一期的Wikifunctions电子报了解更多。
近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者
- 维基媒体网站用户现在可以使用新的
{{#timef:…}}解析器函数，更轻松取得不同语言的格式化日期。例如，{{#timef:now|date|en}}显示为“12 November 2024”，{{#timef:now|date|zh}}显示为“2024年11月12日 (星期二)”。在此之前，{{#time:…}}可以用来格式化日期，但需要手动指定时间和日期的组成部件及顺序及标点符号。#timef（或#timefl用于本地时区）提供对MediaWiki在其UI中使用的标准日期格式的访问。这能有助于简化共享资源和元维基等多语言维基中的一些模板。 [22][23] - 共享资源和元维基用户现在可以使用
{{USERLANGUAGE}}取代{{int:lang}}来有效取得使用者语言。 [24] - 产品和技术咨询委员会（PTAC）目前已有试行成员，代表遍及非洲、亚洲、欧洲、北美洲、南美洲。他们将针对运动策略技术委员会倡议，建立一个共同定义且更具弹性的技术平台。 [25]
深入探索
- 季刊Growth电子报新期数发布。本期内容包括：新手首页“社群新讯”模块即将推出；新的“社群配置”选项；新项目的详情。
- 维基媒体基金会成为通用漏洞揭露（CVE）计划的官方合作伙伴。CVE计划是一项国际性的工作，将公开揭露的网络安全漏洞分类。既维基媒体基金会已成为CVE编号管理者，基金会安全团队将能够对影响MediaWiki核心、扩展、皮肤以及基金会管理的任何代码的漏洞即时发布CVE纪录。
- 社群愿望清单正在测试愿望清单内容的机器翻译。志愿者现在可以阅读愿望的机器翻译版本，在译者翻译内容之前投入讨论。
会议与活动
- 10月24日：维基教育讲者系列线上研讨会——开源技术：建立维基教育面板，由维基媒体实习生和一位网页开发人员参与的专题讨论会。
- 2024年12月20日—22日：2024年印度维基媒体布班尼斯瓦黑客松于印度奥里萨邦举行。该黑客松为社群成员——包括开发者、设计师、内容编辑者——而举办，旨在建构能改善贡献者体验的技术解决方案。

Other Noteworthy Stuff
- A small project on benchmarking query engine performance on useful Wikidata queries is asking for queries from the Wikidata user community to potentially be part of the benchmark. If you are a user of any Wikidata SPARQL service please send queries that you find useful to Peter F. Patel-Schneider. Say what you used the query for and whether you would like to be noted as the source of the query. Queries that take considerable time or time out are especially welcome, particularly if the query caused you to switch from the official Wikidata Query Service to some other service. More information about the project is available in Wikidata:Scaling_Wikidata/Benchmarking.

2024年第46期技术新闻
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
- 在启用翻译扩展的维基，FuzzyBot现在会为翻译页面上的分类自动创建翻译版本。 [32]
- 查看上周解决的共29个社群提交工单。 例如，使用安全投票进行英语维基百科特别管理员选举的工单已按时解决。 [33]
近况更新 - 面向技术贡献者
- 在
1.44.0-wmf-2版本，Wikibase函数getAllStatements的逻辑变得与getBestStatements相似。现在，调用该函数会返回值的副本，使值不再可变。 [34] - Wikimedia REST API用户，例如机器人操作者和工具维护者，可能会受到正持续进行的升级更新的影响。该API会将一些页面内容端点从RESTbase改为较新的MediaWiki REST API端点。受影响的端点包括获取页面和修订版本的元数据以及渲染后的HTML内容。本周稍晚，这些更改将在测试维基推出，其他项目将陆续推出。这项更改应该不会影响现有功能，但使用受影响端点的活跃用户应在测试维基验证其行为，并在相关的Phabricator工单提出任何疑虑。
深入探索
- 启用了Automoderator的维基的管理员和使用者现在可以监控和评估与Automoderator操作相关的重要指标。这个Superset面板计算和汇总有关Automoderator在其部署的维基上的行为指标。感谢Moderator Tools团队提供此面板。参阅文档了解更多。 [35]
