Latest *tech news <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News>* from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2023/39> are available. *Recent changes* - The Vector 2022 skin will now remember the pinned/unpinned status for the Table of Contents for all logged-out users. [1] <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T316060> *Changes later this week* - The new version <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.41/wmf.28> of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 26 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 27 September. It will be on all wikis from 28 September (calendar <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.41/Roadmap>). - The ResourceLoader mediawiki.ui modules are now deprecated as part of the move to Vue.js and Codex. There is a guide for migrating from MediaWiki UI to Codex <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Codex/Migrating_from_MediaWiki_UI> for any tools that use it. More details are available in the task <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T346468> and your questions are welcome there. - Gadget definitions will have a new "namespaces" option <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Gadgets#Options>. The option takes a list of namespace IDs. Gadgets that use this option will only load on pages in the given namespaces. *Future changes* - New variables will be added to AbuseFilter <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter>: global_account_groups and global_account_editcount. They are available only when an account is being created. You can use them to prevent blocking automatic creation of accounts when users with many edits elsewhere visit your wiki for the first time. [2] <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T345632>[3] <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:AbuseFilter/Rules_format> *Meetings* - You can join the next meeting with the Wikipedia mobile apps teams.
