Here are the updates: Bugs resolved: - T409626 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T409626>: - The labels of the languages in the language screens were not displayed properly in different locales. - T413429 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413429>: - The names of the authors were not displayed in interface languages - T409405 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T409405>: - The strings and icons at the top icons were overlapping with each other - T409625 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T409625>: - The icon denoting year of publication was confusing - T413861 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413861>: - Locales were duplicate and different for different users. - T413562 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413562>: - Slash screen logo of Wikisource was not ideal New features: - T409624 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T409624>: - Use interactive progress bar at the bottom of the book reading screen - T408285 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T408285>: - Refresh or update a book without deleting and downloading again - T414563 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414563>: - Thumbnails are now visible in the library section. - T406245 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T406245>: - More bibliographic metadata is displayed in the book details screen Other relevant updates: - You can translate the interface of the app in your language from here: https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:Wikisource_Reader - We are also working on analytics of book search and download, the first look of which is recently made live here <https://wsindex.toolforge.org/analytics/> - Technical documentation for both the app and the API is being created here <https://cis-india.github.io/wikisource-reader-app/documentation.html> and will be improved gardually - You can report existing bugs or request for new features related to the app in this Phabricator workboard <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/board/8233/query/all/> - T408915 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T408915>: Epubs generated for Bangla and French Wikisource projects had unwanted lines due to recent Parsoid updates, which negatively affected the books in the app for these two languages. It has been disabled temporarily for Proofreadpage extension to use Parsoid, which has resolved this issue for now. - We faced an issue recently to update the list of books. After investigation, we have decided to filter out those Wikidata items, which contain more than one P1957 <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P1957> like this one <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q19489053> (i.e. more than one editions clumped together in one item). When they will be split in separate items following the correct data model, they will be automatically displayed on the app, as usual. We sincerely thank Levy Muguro <https://levymuguro.hashnode.dev/new-outreachy-intern>, a full stack developer from Kenya, who is behind majority of our recent updates as part of his internship at the Outreachy. His Outreachy contributions can be tracked from here: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T405593 . Regards, Sai Phanindra and Bodhisattwa (both as volunteer capacity)
