[Wikitech-l] Flagged revs and Lua modules
Hi, I don't know if there is a bugreport on this, forgive me if I duplicate. Hungarian Wikipedia began to use Scribunto in the first batch, and we also use Flagged Revisions. This is a page: http://hu.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Abe_Sinz%C3%B3action=history where the editors were all trusted and/or bots, but the page had to be explicitliy checked. The behaviour is just like when a template is modified by untrusted user, and we have to check the articles where it is included. But in this case it is not the template but a module. All these pages http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speci%C3%A1lis:Mi_hivatkozik_erre/Modul:Nyelvtani_modul have the same problem. On the other side, the history of the involved module: http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modul:Nyelvtani_modul shows that it was only edited by an admin and should be autochecked (or reviewed or patrollod or anything because I always mix these words in English but uselang=en shows checked). -- Bináris ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

[Wikitech-l] Yuri Astrakhan Adam Baso join Mobile department partner team
Greetings all, I'm pleased to announce that the mobile department has two new staff members. Yuri Astrakhan Adam Baso join as sr. software developers on the mobile partner team. In this role Yuri and Adam will support projects like Wikipedia Zero, SMS/USSD, and J2ME to further the reach of our projects in geographic areas that have both financial and technical impediments to access Wikipedia. They will be working closely with Kul and Dan from the global development group. Yuri has been heavily involved in Wikipedia-related projects 2005-2007 developing the API framework and querying subsystem, contributing to pywikibot code, and making millions of changes as yurikbot, while at the same time working as a software consultant for several large banks. In 2008 Yuri joined a small hedge-fund to lead the development of an automated trading platform. While there, Yuri continued various open source projects such as time-series database (timeseriesdb). After over five years, Yuri has rejoined the MediaWiki community and will be working for us from New York. Adam spent the past seven years working in the field of information security, specializing in application security, identity management, and encryption in the retail, government, and banking sectors. Adam led the OWASP Minneapolis-Saint Paul chapter for a couple of years, and proudly organized the OWASP AppSec USA 2011 conference. Adam and his wife are relocating to San Francisco from Minneapolis-Saint Paul, and they look forward to the opportunity to live in such a thriving software-friendly community. The mobile group is excited and proud to welcome both Yuri Adam as sr. engineers to the partner team. This completes the team and allows them to work aggressively to reach our 4 billion page target through outreach projects like Wikipedia Zero.
