- TheaterEncyclopedie ID (An item of the TheaterEncyclopedie)
- relates to sustainable development goal, target or indicator (indicates a relation between the subject and the SDGs or one of the components)
- student count by gender (I think there should be a way to document the number of students at a university by their gender, as data for student counts (at least if they come from GENESIS Online - german universities) contain that data divided in male and female students. I think it would make more sense to implement that as a qualifier for {{P|2196}} than implementing it as a new property as that wouldn't make old data obsolete, but also it could interfere with tools that retrieve that data automated and are then confused by having multiple counts at the same time.)
- has semantic role (item that describes a role in an event class)
- model for (2) (what the subject is a conceptual or scientific model/theory for)
- Dynasty (A dynasty is a sequence of rulers from the same family, usually in the context of a monarchy or imperial system but sometimes also appearing in republics.

近期變更
- 現在,當使用者在視覺化編輯器中嘗試加入外部連結,而該網域被列入維基專案的黑名單,使用者將立即收到回饋。詳情請見編輯檢查。 [13]
- 新的社群配置擴充功能可在測試維基使用。此擴充功能使本地社群能依需求自訂特定功能。目前僅能配置Growth功能,但未來將支援其他用例。 [14][15]
- 現在,深色模式測試功能可以在分類、說明頁面以及更多特殊頁面上使用。請留意可能存在對比問題。如果您發現任何錯誤,請在專案討論頁回報。 [16]
問題
上週,維基媒體雲端服務中斷了25分鐘。這是由於資料中心的纜線故障所致。 [17]
- 上週,Vector 2022外觀進行了樣式更新。這導致了模板、頂註和圖片出現意料之外的問題。對模板和頂註的變更已被回退;大多數圖片問題已解決。如果您發現任何問題,請在此工單回報。 [18]
本週變更
MediaWiki的新版本將於6月18日部署至測試維基及MediaWiki.org,於6月19日部署至非維基百科wiki及部分維基百科,並於6月20日部署至所有站點(參見日程表)。 [19][20]
- 從6月18日開始,「參考編輯檢查」功能將部署至新一批維基百科。當使用者新增內容至維基百科條目時,若未附上引註,此功能將請他們新增引註,藉此來協助新手並輔助巡查工作。在涵蓋11個維基的測試中,當向使用者顯示「參考檢查」時,新增的引註數量增加了一倍以上。「參考檢查」可由社群自行配置。 [21]
- 本週二(18日),維基媒體郵件清單將於10:00至12:00 UTC期間暫停服務約兩個小時。這是為了遷移至新伺服器並升級其軟件。 [22]

- User:Magnus Manske/ac2wd.js - This script adds an "AC2WD" link in the tools sidebar. When you click on it, it uses the AC2WD tool to check the item for certain Authority Control IDs (eg VIAF). It then checks these AC datasets for statements (and more AC IDs). It will then add any new information it found as new statements, or add more references to existing statements where possible. A green checkmark will be appended to the link if data was added (reload the page to see), otherwise a "—" if no new data was available.

2024年第29期技術新聞
維基媒體技術社群現在發佈最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更;不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。
技術新聞調查
- 邀請您填寫這份簡短問卷調查,協助我們改善技術新聞。本次調查旨在更有效地滿足閱讀技術新聞的各類讀者的需求。本次調查還會開放3天。本次調查適用這份私隱聲明。本次調查提供其他語言的翻譯版本。
近期變更
維基媒體開發者現在可以正式繼續使用Gerrit和GitLab,基於維基媒體基金會於6月24日決定支持在這兩個平台共同進行軟件開發。Gerrit和GitLab皆是開發者用來編寫、審查和部署軟件代碼的代碼儲存庫,而這些代碼支撐著MediaWiki——用於建構維基專案,也是編輯者用於創建和改進內容的工具。這項決定將保障開發者們的生產力,並避免code review——代碼審查方面的問題影響使用者。更多詳情請見遷移狀態頁面。
- 維基媒體基金會誠徵產品與技術諮詢委員會(PTAC)申請人。該小組將匯集技術貢獻者與維基媒體基金會,共同開發一個更具彈性、與時俱進的技術平台。委員會成員將對維基媒體運動的產品與技術活動進行評估與諮詢,以便我們開發多代的專案。我們正在尋找來自世界各地具有不同專案經驗的技術貢獻者。請於8月10日前在此申請。
- 持有回退權的編輯者可以在Android版維基百科App使用新的編輯巡查功能。這些功能包括最近修改的新動態、復原和回退等相關連結,以及建立和儲存個人的使用者討論訊息庫以供巡查時使用。如果您所在的wiki希望向沒有回退權但編輯次數達到一定門檻的使用者提供這些功能,您可以聯絡團隊。更多關於此專案,請參閱Diff文章。
- 在基金會進行聯絡溝通後,有權存取維基百科圖書館的編輯者再度能使用SpringerLinks中的非開放存取內容。延伸閱讀上週完成的22個社群提交工單。
本週變更
- 本週,深色模式將供多個維基百科使用,無論桌面版或行動版,使用者登入或未登入。敬請介面管理員和使用者腳本維護人員在深色模式下檢查小工具和使用者腳本,查找任何寫死的顏色並修復它們。有一些深色模式相容性建議可供參考。
未來變更
下週,邀請工作人員、志願工具維護者和軟件開發團隊在測試維基上測試臨時帳號功能。臨時帳號功能有助於改善wiki上的私隱保護。目前未有其他進一步的部署安排。歡迎在專案討論頁發表意見和提出疑問。 [36]
- 邀請跨維基上傳檔案或教導他人如此操作的編輯者,參與維基共享資源上的討論。共享資源社群正在討論將能夠透過跨維基上傳功能(或稱上傳對話框)上傳檔案的使用者,限縮為維基共享資源上的自動確認用戶。這是因為透過這種方式上傳的檔案大量侵犯了著作權。Commons:跨維基上傳有簡短摘要,討論位於Commons:互助客棧。

2024年第30期技術新聞
維基媒體技術社群現在發佈最新的技術新聞。請告知其他使用者這些變更;不是所有的變更都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的譯文版本。
功能週報
- 監管員現在可以對帳號實施全域封鎖。在此變更之前,全域封鎖僅能針對IP位址和IP範圍實施。不同於全域鎖定,全域帳號封鎖不會將被封鎖的使用者登出。全域鎖定不受此變更影響。新的全域帳號封鎖功能與臨時帳號專案有關,這種新型態的使用者帳號用於取代未註冊編輯者的IP位址,使其不再公開可見。
- 本週稍晚,FlaggedRevs(標記修訂,又稱「待審查的變更」)的介面將得到改進,與MediaWiki的其他介面及維基媒體設計系統Codex保持一致。流動裝置和Minerva外觀上的FlaggedRevs介面體驗原本與他處不一致,後經由Growth團隊和一些志願者修復並移植到Codex。 [37]
- 維基媒體網站使用者現在可以透過GlobalVanishRequest提交帳號隱退請求。當貢獻者希望永遠停止編輯時,可以使用此功能。它可以幫您隱藏過去的關聯和編輯,以保護您的私隱。一旦處理完成,該帳號將被鎖定並重新命名。 [38]
- 您試過使用手機監控和應對維基百科中的破壞行為嗎?一篇關於流動應用程式中的巡查功能的Diff文章重點介紹了一些新功能,包括滑動瀏覽最近修改動態以及個人化的使用者討論訊息庫,供使用手機巡查時使用。
- 維基媒體貢獻者和GLAM機構(美術館、圖書館、檔案館及博物館)現在可以使用「共享資源影響力指標」分析面板,了解與衡量維基共享資源對於創建高品質百科全書內容的影響。該面板提供諸如分類每月編輯數、瀏覽量最高的檔案、使用共享資源圖片的維基條目等方面的分析。有了這些新的數據轉儲,GLAM機構可以更精準衡量將內容引入數位共享資源的投資回報率。 [39]
專案近況
- 快來在嶄新重啟的社群願望清單分享您對改善維基的想法。社群願望清單是供志願者分享他們改善維基運作方式的想法(稱為願望)的維基媒體論壇。新版願望清單始終開放,wikitext和視覺化編輯器皆可使用,並允許以任何語言提交願望。
增廣見聞
- 你有沒有想過維基媒體軟件如何支援300多種語言?這比Google Chrome的介面多了253種語言,而這絕非偶然。維基媒體基金會的語言與產品在地化團隊透過調整所有工具和介面,使其適應您的語言和其他語言,為您提供支援。閱讀Diff文章了解更多關於該團隊及其即將開展的工作。
- 維基媒體如何在維護如此頻繁使用的網站之時,同時建構創新和實驗性的產品?維基媒體基金會職員Johan Jönsson近期發表的一篇Diff文章,重點介紹了基金會的「未來受眾」計劃的工作,其目標不是建構完善的產品,而是測試新的想法,例如ChatGPT插件和「加入事實」等,幫助維基媒體走向未來。

importScript('User:Techwizzie/forage.js');
