Hello, For HTML version, see: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Scrum_of_scrums/2019-08-07
Deb --- = 2019-08-07 = == Callouts == * Wikidata/WMDE: we would appreciate if there were any updates with regards to fixing issues with the Graphoid, which cause problems on many Wikipedias who use it (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T226250), . Some investigation as been done but Yurik doesn't seem to be willing to investigate more or to touch the code. Are there any news about the ownership of Graphoid (WMF team taking over? leaving unmaintained? undeploying?), see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T211881. * Informational information from Parsing: ** Tim isolated a GC bug in PHP from the SEGV crasher we found running Parsoid/PHP parser tests *** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T228346 is the SEGV phab task and https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78379 is the upstream bug report against PHP *** Please take a look at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/services/parsoid/+/527952/4/src/Utils/PHPUtils.php for a workaround in Parsoid in case your codebases might benefit from this. * Growth: One more threshold update for huwiki: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T230031 * Structured Data: As we roll out new features on Commons, we have been seeing a couple of errors that seem to be a product of the MediaInfo extension using underlying Wikibase code in ways different than originally intended. Example: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T229280. This is not an emergency or train blocker, but would be good to chat about how we can work together to address issues like this going forward * Search: need some feedback from Slovak speakers: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T223787 * Next week: No train due to Wikimania * Services: We fixed ORES precache to handle new "stream" param (not "topic"). Should be good to remove your workaround. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T228689 == Product == === Contributors === ==== Editing ==== * Updates: ** Preparing for Wikimania ** Deployed Edit Cards v2 ** Created a Prototype for Toolbar v1 on Mobile ** Working on Phase 2 of Talk Pages report ==== Growth ==== * Updates: ** Preparing for Task Recommendations work === Readers === ==== iOS native app ==== * Updates: ** 6.3.1 released yesterday https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/ios-app-v6.3.1_lobster-on-an-orv/ *** bug fixes *** talk pages enhancements ** 6.4 exploratory phase https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/ios-app-v6.4-seamonkey-on-a-hoverboard/ *** iOS13 / iPadOS updates *** Working on a big release that improves article history https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/ios-app-v6.4-seamonkey-on-a-hoverboard/ ==== Android native app ==== * Updates: ** Suggested Edits v2 (editing image captions) released to production! ** Mobile html integration is almost done.
