Recent changes

• You can no longer read Wikimedia wikis if your browser use very old TLS. This is because it is a security problem for everyone. It can lead to downgrade attacks. Since 9 December you just see a warning. Soon the browser will not connect to the wikis at all. Most are users on Android systems older than 4.4. You can read the browser recommendations. [2]
• Special:LinkSearch has been moved from the "Pagine speciali che reindirizzano" section on Special:SpecialPages to the "Elenchi di pagine" section. [3]

Changes later this week

• Wikis can protect pages so that only some users can edit them. The standard protection levels are Consentito solo agli utenti autoconvalidati and Consentito solo agli amministratori. If your wiki use more protection levels the technical name might be renamed for standardisation. This doesn't affect what users see. [4]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 14 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 15 January. It will be on all wikis from 16 January (calendar).

Future changes

• Deepcat and Catgraph will stop working. This will happen at the end of January. This is because you can now use the normal search function instead. [5]
• You can use <ref follow="…"> to merge footnotes that follow each other. It is meant to be used for digitised books on Wikisource. If the order of the footnotes is wrong no error was shown but the bad <ref> was shown outside the <references /> list. This will change and you will see an error message instead. [6]

:D

Grazie per il grazie. Però lo faccio perché ti voglio bene:) infatti avevo suggerito di non proporre pistoloni e pipponi. Ma andrò avanti se mi si libera il tempo. E se riesco a non addormentarmi :D --Silvio Gallio (disc.) 19:07, 31 gen 2020 (CET)

Concordo, cerco di mettere in rilettura prima testi che scorrono bene, visto che ce ne sono.

Se hai delle preferenze, segnalami il testo e te lo metto in rilettura al prossimo giro!

Grazie, ciao, --Accurimbono (disc) 01:15, 4 feb 2020 (CET)

Ciao, come avrai visto sono riuscito, pur con ampi sbadigli, a finire quella metà scarsa della Deledda. In effetti è stato veloce per la bontà della scansione. Quindi attivati per il cambio fin che sono libero da pressanti impegni che la pacchia (spero) sta per finire e mi si muovono anche altri destini. Per testo posso segnalare (senza impegno) Indice:Relazione sulla scelta della linea di allacciamento delle ferrovie italiane col Gottardo.djvu mancano poche pagine ma io l'ho portato al 75% e non posso farci più nulla; forse evidenziandolo... È uno dei miei pallini quello di usare questo angolo di rilettura per finire i mozziconi. Ma se hai altro, no problem. Altra domanda: anni fa ho scritto un articolo aiutato da un collega e amico e, di comune accordo, lo abbiamo inserito qui. Trattasi di Elettrotecnica e sicurezza del 1867. Come potrai vedere il suo nome è link rosso (la cosa mi dà noia perché si vede meglio del mio :D) pensi che possa creare una pagina autore anche per lui anche se in effetti non scrive mai niente e la sua è l'unica apparizione nel mondo della stampa storica, giusto per bluizzarlo. Se si chiedero luogo e data di nascita ma poi per le cose tecniche dovrò passare la mano. ma vedremo. Salum --Silvio Gallio (disc.) 21:42, 4 feb 2020 (CET) Ah si, Ti sei dimenticato di pingarmi qui sopra. L'ho scoperto solo ora che avevi risposto. :P :D --Silvio Gallio (disc.) 21:42, 4 feb 2020 (CET)

@Silvio Gallio: Ferlini fatto :) Inserisci su wikidata dati biografici per favore, oppure comunicameli e li inserisco io. --Accurimbono (disc) 00:40, 5 feb 2020 (CET)

@Silvio Gallio: Ho riletto il testo ferroviario che mi hai segnalato. Ora ho messo in rilettura un libro di Panzini, molto scorrevole. Se hai altri mozziconi da segnalare, fammi sapere. --Accurimbono (disc) 02:14, 5 feb 2020 (CET)

Grande! Ho scritti a Ermes per i dati, poi proverò a inserirli se faccio pasticci fischia. Anzi picchiami :) Silvio Gallio (disc.) 09:51, 5 feb 2020 (CET)

Giuro che ho provato un inserimento su wikidata ma non ci ho capito un mazza. I dati di Ermes sarebbero: nato a Imola (BO) il 20.02.1949. Mi dispiace disturbarti ma proprio non ci riesco. "In compenso" ti verdurizzo un testo ferroviario che hai inserito tu ma che non avevo visto (oppure l'ho dimenticato) Ferrovia Cesano - Misa. Se lo tieni d'occhio forse fra qualche giorno lo finisco e puoi fare i controlli finali. Lo so che è corto ma il tempo è improvvisamente diminuito. Ciao Grazie --Silvio Gallio (disc.) 21:50, 8 feb 2020 (CET)

Per finire. Ho riletto fin dove possibile il librettino sulla Cesano-Misa. Restano rosse due pagine che erano da sistemare e che quindi non posso finire io ma forse tu si :). Purtroppo invece, pur pelandomi gli occhi, non sono riuscito a comprendere quelle 2(?) parole in basso a destra e quindi non mi è stato possibile portare al rosso la lettera autografa senza "barare". Sorry Silvio Gallio (disc.) 10:55, 9 feb 2020 (CET)

I dati di Ermes Ferlini sono stato inseriti in Wikidata da un IP.

Grazie per la rilettura!!! --Accurimbono (disc) 16:34, 9 feb 2020 (CET)

Hahaha l'IP ero io. Incredibile. no? Però non sono riuscito a togliere il "floruit". Se puoi provvedere ti ringrazio io. :D --Silvio Gallio (disc.) 16:57, 9 feb 2020 (CET)

(fuori crono) Non è che il Frontespizio lo puoi verdurizzare tu? A me il sistema non lo consente ma dopo di te c'è stato anche .mau mi pare che tu sia "coperto". Boh comunque è un dettaglio se non ce la fai un cliente lo troviamo, dai. Ciao! Silvio Gallio (disc.) 15:59, 14 feb 2020 (CET)

@Silvio Gallio Non posso, perché ancora non è stata inclusa la marca tipografica. @Alex brollo ci puoi dare una mano? Il tool che c'era una volta per ritagliare al volo le immagini, ora non riesco più a trovarlo... che fine ha fatto? --Accurimbono (disc) 16:04, 14 feb 2020 (CET)

il file l'ho croppato ed è a https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Blasi_-_Ferrovia_Cesano_-_Misa,_Pergola,_1885_(page_3_crop).jpg , ma non riesco a inserirlo :-( --.mau. (disc.) 16:45, 14 feb 2020 (CET)

come non detto, è tuttapposto. --.mau. (disc.) 16:47, 14 feb 2020 (CET)

ignoranze acquisite

Scrivo anche a te assieme a Alex vedi se puoi dare un indirizzo o dei suggerimenti

Mi dispiace estrarti dalle tue magnifiche lavorazioni e se non hai tempo gira la domanda a chi possa rispondere.

Visto che sto rileggendo (è l'unica cosa che riesco a fare ormai) e che molte cose non le so/ricordo, noto che manca una pagine di FAQ dedicate alla rilettura.

Ho cominciato a raggrumare in una sandbox Utente:Silvio Gallio/sandbox4 ma la cana vuole uscire e comunque non penso proprio di sapere nemmeno le domande.

Puoi/potete aggiungere quello che serve così alla veloce, poi io provo a sistemare e formattare la pagine e magari mettere i link alla pagine di aiuto. eccetera.

Scappo che se no me la fa nello studio. A più in là --

Pensa che per la fretta mi ero scritto sulla mia pagina... --Silvio Gallio (disc.) 12:01, 5 feb 2020 (CET)

@Silvio Gallio Tieni presente che abbiamo anche questa pagina Wikisource:Convenzioni di trascrizione che era stata scritta con molta cura. --Accurimbono (disc) 03:22, 6 feb 2020 (CET)

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Problems

• Readers who were not logged in briefly saw the interface in a language decided by their browser. It should normally be in the language of the wiki. This happened for a short period of time last week. This was because of a bug. [18]

Changes later this week

• If you forget your password you can ask for a new one to be sent to your email address. You need to know your email address or your username. You will now be able to choose that you need to enter both your email address and your username. This will be a preference. This is to get fewer password reset emails someone else asked for. [19]
• When you asked for a new password you could see if the username didn't exist on Special:PasswordReset. Now the page will show the username you entered and tell you an email has been sent if the username exists. This is for better security. [20]
• On Special:WhatLinksHere you can see what other pages link to a page. You can see if the link is from a redirect. You can now see which section the redirect links to. [21]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 3 marzo. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 4 marzo. It will be on all wikis from 5 marzo (calendar).

Future changes

• The developers are working on a new interface to solve edit conflicts on talk pages. You can give feedback. [22]
• There is a vote on the creation of a new user group called abuse filter manager. The vote runs from March 1 to March 31 on Meta.
• wgMFSpecialCaseMainPage was used for the mobile site. It was deprecated in 2017. It will stop working in April. Wikis should see if they use it. If they do they should fix it. You can read more and ask for help. This affects 183 wikis. There is a list. [23]

Problemi

• Some development will be slower than planned. This is because of the current pandemic. You can see the new deployment guidelines. This is to avoid risks when some persons could be unavailable.

Cambiamenti futuri

• There is a project to make editing easier for newcomers. The developers are trying to understand what initiatives different Wikipedias have to welcome newcomers. They also want to know which templates are often used for maintenance activities. You can help this project by checking if your wiki's pages are listed on Wikidata.

Giusto tu che sei bravo...

Ciao. Un problema: Ho appena finito di verdurizzare "il padre di famiglia" della serie Goldoni. Provando ad aprire la sezione "ultimi arrivi" nella pagina principale esce solo la lista di "oltre Wikisource" in basso. Non ricordo come altro arrivare al Laboratorio. Sopratutto temo che ci sia un link sbagliato. Poi, ci sarebbe a che l'Anima sòla" :) che è tutta verde... Fatevobis che sapete :D --Silvio Gallio (disc.) 12:25, 4 apr 2020 (CEST)

@Silvio Gallio Alex aveva aggiunto per sbaglio un template Qualità di troppo che aveva interrotto il link di modifica. Ho sistemato il problema e ho aggiunto i due testi da te segnalati.

Adesso metto un nuovo testo in rilettura.

Grazie, ciao! --Accurimbono (disc) 12:40, 4 apr 2020 (CEST)

Re: Template W

Grazie a te per l'apprezzamento e per la precisazione sull'uso del template. Mi sto muovendo da inesperta, quindi ogni insegnamento è prezioso.--Pebbles (disc.) 13:42, 5 apr 2020 (CEST)

Approfitto della tua attenzione per segnalarti che a pag. 490 non ho inserito il link al nome Plinio, in quanto, verificando a caso qualche pagina, ho visto che si tratta sia di Plinio il vecchio sia del nipote. Che fare? Si dovrebbe controllare ogni singola citazione (ammesso che siano abbastanza chiare da far risalire con sicurezza all'autore) e poi suddividere...Lo faccio adesso o vado avanti con l'indice e rimandiamo a dopo? Aspetto un consiglio. --Pebbles (disc.) 20:17, 5 apr 2020 (CEST)

Purtroppo è capitato di verificare lo stesso problema anche per altri autori nell'indice (ad esempio Ateneo).

Io nell'indice non metterei nessun link, mentre in ciascuna pagina del testo verificherei ciascun link e metterei l'autorecitato che punta verso il Plinio giusto. --Accurimbono (disc) 09:19, 6 apr 2020 (CEST)

D'accordo. Intanto procedo con l'indice.--Pebbles (disc.) 11:16, 6 apr 2020 (CEST)

Ormai l'indice è finito, sto controllando qua e là (ti ringrazio del ringraziamento!). Però ogni tanto trovo cose strane: per esempio, se vado a rileggere certe pagine non trovo l'autore citato. Un caso misterioso è quel certo Darvelio o Dorvelio del quale nulla si trova in wiki e neppure nella pagina a lui ascritta. Di fronte ai misteri mi fermo. Mi attende il lavoretto sui due Plinio. Buona Pasqua!--Pebbles (disc.) 17:42, 10 apr 2020 (CEST)

@Pebbles E' un problema che ho riscontrato anche io con diversi autori... atteniamoci alla fonte e trascriviamo quello che vediamo anche se ci sono errori non emendabili. Grazie per la rilettura! --Accurimbono (disc) 19:17, 10 apr 2020 (CEST)

Perfetto, grazie a te!--Pebbles (disc.) 11:53, 11 apr 2020 (CEST)

Problemi

• La scorsa settimana c'è stato un problema col database di Wikidata. Alcune wiki sono state irraggiungibili per una ventina di minuti. Wikidata e altri progetti hanno mostrato messaggi di errore.

Tech News: 2020-24

Ultimo bollettino tecnico dalla comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Modifiche recenti

• In alcune voci ci sono tabelle che possono essere ordinate in vari modi. Un esempio è un elenco di Paesi in ordine alfabetico che può essere riordinato per grandezza se clicchi sulla colonna delle rispettive grandezze. In precedenza, se ricliccavi sulla colonna, i Paesi si riordinavano solo in ordine inverso. Adesso ogni terzo click ripristinerà invece l'ordine iniziale. [73]
• D'ora in avanti i tag auto-chiusi si comporteranno come da specifiche HTML5. Ciò significa che non dovresti usarne alcuni. <b/> è un esempio di tag auto-chiuso non valido. area, base, br, col, embed, hr, img, input, keygen, link, meta, param, source, track, wbr sono tag che possono essere auto-chiusi. Le pagine con tag auto-chiusi non validi sono state raccolte dal 2016 in una categoria di tracciamento e adesso saranno elencate in Special:LintErrors/self-closed-tag. Il cambiamento non riguarda i tag <references /> o <ref />. [74]
• Esiste un banner chiamato WikidataPageBanner. È usato ad esempio dai progetti Wikivoyage, da Wikimedia Russia e dalle Wikipedia in lingua catalana, basca, gallega e turca. Adesso sarà mostrato anche agli utenti da mobile e non solo più da desktop. I wiki interessati dovrebbero aggiornare le istruzioni su MediaWiki:Sitenotice affinché gli utenti sappiano che tipo di prove e modifiche fare per compatibilità coi dispositivi mobili. [75][76]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• Diventa possibile modificare le descrizioni di MassMessage via API. È utile per strumenti e accessori. [77]
• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 9 giugno. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 10 giugno e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 11 giugno (calendario).

Modifiche future

• Un fix temporaneo del 2012 ha agevolato i wiki nel rendere le proprie pagine principali più mobile-friendly. È stato deprecato nel 2017 e smetterà di funzionare dal 13 luglio. Al suo posto, i wiki dovrebbero usare TemplateStyles. I wiki che hanno bisogno di adeguarsi sono 118. Puoi informarti e scoprire se il tuo wiki è uno di questi. [78]

Tech News: 2020-25

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Modifiche recenti

• Toolforge ospita diversi strumenti creati dalla comunità Wikimedia, come contatori di modifiche o editor avanzati. Sta cambiando dominio da tools.wmflabs.org a toolforge.org. Lo schema d'instradamento passerà da tools.wmflabs.org/toolname a toolname.toolforge.org. Puoi informarti sui dettagli. Gli strumenti che usano OAuth dovranno essere aggiornati per continuare a funzionare. Puoi chiedere aiuto.

Problemi

• In molte pagine c'è un link a un elemento Wikidata nella barra laterale. È sparito per un paio di giorni sulla skin Monobook a causa di un bug. È stato corretto. [79]
• La scorsa settimana c'è stato un problema che ha impedito di effettuare modifiche, l'accesso o il logout per un breve periodo di tempo. È stato subito corretto. [80]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 16 giugno. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 17 giugno e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 18 giugno (calendario).

Modifiche future

• Pywikibot è una libreria Python per effettuare operazioni automatiche sui wiki. Dalla nuova versione di luglio in poi non supporterà più Python 2, così come verrà meno il supporto per Python 3.4 e le versioni di MediaWiki antecedenti alla 1.19. Dovresti migrare a Python 3. Puoi chiedere aiuto. [81]
• I selettori .menu e .vectorMenu non funzioneranno più sulla skin Vector. Il cambiamento potrebbe essere causa di problemi ad accessori e script utente. .menu dovrebbe essere sostituito con ul, mentre .vectorMenu dovrebbe essere sostituito con .vector-menu. [82]

Tech News: 2020-27

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Problemi

• Tutti gli utenti registrati sono stati disconnessi. Il motivo è che ad alcuni utenti è capitato di visualizzare i wiki come se fossero loggati con l'account di altre persone. Il problema dovrebbe essere stato risolto. [87]
• Alcuni lettori non visualizzavano le ultime modifiche alle pagine. Se la pagina era stata modificata di recente, visualizzavano una sua versione precedente. Il problema riguardava solo i lettori che non navigavano con un'utenza. Si è verificato per dieci giorni e poi è stato risolto. [88]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 30 giugno. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 1 luglio e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 1 luglio (calendario).

Modifiche future

• Le skin Modern e Monobook usano come ID per il pulsante di ricerca searchGoButton. Nella skin Vector l'ID corrispondente è searchButton. Per uniformare l'ID, quello delle skin Monobook e Modern sarà cambiato anch'esso in searchButton. La modifica avrà luogo il 23 luglio e riguarderà accessori e script utente da aggiornare con searchButton. Puoi informarti e consultare la lista di questi script.

Problemi

• L'estensione Score è al momento disabilitata per via di un problema di sicurezza. Sarà riattivata appena il problema sarà risolto. [89]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 7 luglio. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 8 luglio e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 9 luglio (calendario).

Modifiche future

• Gli sviluppatori dell'app Wikipedia per iOS stanno ideando nuovi strumenti sperimentali. Se usi un iPhone, puoi aiutarli partecipando a un sondaggio.
• Presto saranno implementate alcune regole per le firme utente. Non sarà più possibile inserire nelle firme utente errori di Lint e HTML non valido. Non saranno consentiti nemmeno subst annidati. Al contrario, diventerà obbligatorio inserire un link alla tua pagina utente, pagina di discussione utente o contributi utente. Puoi controllare se la tua firma è compatibile con le nuove regole. Il cambiamento serve a impedire che le firme possano causare problemi a strumenti o al resto del testo nelle pagine.

Tech News: 2020-29

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Modifiche recenti

• Gli utenti hanno la facoltà di inviare ringraziamenti ad altri utenti per le loro modifiche. I checkuser possono ora visualizzare dati relativi a questa azione per meglio identificare i sockpuppet che usano i ringraziamenti come strumento per molestare. [91]

Problemi

• Un paio di settimane fa tutti gli utenti registrati sono stati disconnessi per far fronte a un problema di sicurezza. Poiché il problema non è stato del tutto corretto, gli utenti registrati sono stati nuovamente disconnessi la settimana scorsa. [92][93]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• Le pagine sui wiki multilingue possono essere tradotte. A volte alcune parti delle traduzioni sono mancanti o da aggiornare. Le traduzioni da aggiornare sono evidenziate con uno sfondo rosa, mentre le traduzioni mancanti saranno anch'esse in futuro evidenziate. Dato che questo markup può causare errori, sarà presto rimpiazzato dall'uso di <translate nowrap></translate> nel codice sorgente. [94]
• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 14 luglio. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 15 luglio e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 16 luglio (calendario).

Modifiche future

• La revisione del codice di Wikimedia passerà a essere effettuata tramite GitLab sui server Wikimedia. [95][96][97][98]

Chi la fa l'aspetti

Help su autori del duecento che non hanno un'entità wikidata (da una ricerca rapida):

• Autore:Si. Gui. da Pistoia
• Autore:Lemmo Orlandi
• Autore:Meo di Bugno
• Autore:Gonnella degli Antelminelli
• Autore:Fredi
• Autore:Dotto Reali
• Autore:Leonardo della Guallacca
• Autore:Panuccio del Bagno -> Autore:Pannuccio dal Bagno Pisano
• Autore:Geri Giannini
• Autore:Lotto di Ser Dato
• Autore:Nocco di Cenni di Frediano
• Autore:Geronimo Terramagnino

Ancora non ho cercato a fondo by Google o in VIAF o altro. Naturalmente tratti da Indice:Rimatori siculo-toscani del Dugento.djvu. Alex brollo (disc.) 08:47, 16 lug 2020 (CEST)

@Alex brollo grazie Alex, dammi un po' di tempo e te li creo tutti con molto piacere. :) --Accurimbono (disc) 10:42, 16 lug 2020 (CEST)

@Alex brollo Fatto, occhio a Panuccio, già presente e creato come redirect, e a Gonnella / Gonella (vedi it.wiki). Ciao, --Accurimbono (disc) 12:31, 16 lug 2020 (CEST)

Benissimo! Adesso se mi compare un "autore rosso" so che ho sbagliato qualcosa. E ho imparato come funzia il floruit.... la lista delle cose che non so è lunghetta e si allunga sempre più :-).

Grazie. Alex brollo (disc.) 15:23, 16 lug 2020 (CEST)

Due erano sfuggiti:

• Autore:Bartolomeo
• Autore:Bonodico da Lucca

Approfitto per aggiornarti. Tutte le poesie sono create sia in nsPagina che in ns0, in "brutta copia": quelle SAL 25% sono formattate (non escludo qualche errore) e transcluse in pagine individuali, con capoverso come nome pagina. Non sono corretti gli errori OCR! La cosa va completata e riorganizzata, con pagine-raccolta con annotazioni e glossari e riunendo in pagine ns0 le tenzoni e le botta-risposta (sono poche); a quel punto, per queste ultime, le pagine individuali della poesie saranno trasformate in redirect. Vediamo se mi riesce bene. Alex brollo (disc.) 09:56, 17 lug 2020 (CEST)

@Alex brollo grazie per l'aggiornamento, mi pare che il lavoro proceda bene, complimenti! Se ci fossero altri autori da creare, sarò ben felice di contribuire --Accurimbono (disc) 13:00, 18 lug 2020 (CEST)

Altro in arrivo

Mi sto avvicinando a Sonetti burleschi e realistici dei primi due secoli (1920), con un'altra infornata di autori minori e maggiori del XIII e XIV secolo. Cercherò di tabellarti in anticipo gli autori :-) . Nel frattempo si sedimenterà la struttura che ho sperimentato; mi pare, a una prima occhiata, che nella raccolta ci siano parecchie tenzoni, hai visto che nei siculo-toscani ho adottato una doppia transclusione: come poesie singole e riunite per tenzone. Le poesie singole in questi casi potrebbero anche essere trasformate in redirect, sono dubbioso. --Alex brollo (disc.) 09:33, 19 lug 2020 (CEST)

@Alex brollo Perfetto, fammi la lista delle pagine autore da fare e te le preparo appena possibile. --Accurimbono (disc) 10:03, 20 lug 2020 (CEST)

Ci siamo, ecco l'elenco, intanto tratto dal sommario dell'edizione 1940. Ho eliminato solo i più ovvi.

• Attaviano
• Castruccio degli Antelminelli -> Castruccio Castracani degli Antelminelli
• Cecco Nuccoli
• Cenne della Chitarra d'Arezzo
• Cione
• Cola di messer Alessandro -> Cola di Alessandro

• Beroardo
• Cione Baglioni

• Mino da Colle
• Pietro de' Faitinelli detto Mugnone
• Trebaldino Manfredini

Dimmi se posso aiutarti Alex brollo (disc.) 14:49, 27 lug 2020 (CEST)

Ho fatto una ricerca rapida in wikidata, qualcuno ne ho trovato (aggiunti link) Alex brollo (disc.) 16:36, 27 lug 2020 (CEST)

Ho fatto quello che potevo, alcuni restano proprio rossi. :-( Pazienza....Alex brollo (disc.) 22:44, 1 ago 2020 (CEST)

OK @Alex brollo, però dovresti utilizzare i campi Attività e Nazionalità, altrimenti NON funziona la categorizzazione automatica del template Autore. E' diverse volte che vedo questa cosa e non ne capisco il perché. --Accurimbono (disc) 10:26, 4 ago 2020 (CEST)

A me era sfuggito.... grazie, me ne ricorderò. Ero consapevole di aver fatto un lavoro molto approssimativo, sia qui che su wikidata; spero che qualcuno pian piano sistemi. Alex brollo (disc.) 10:53, 4 ago 2020 (CEST)

Sì, ora approfitto per smaltire un po' di lavoro sporco arretrato. Grazie a te per il grande lavoro che stai facendo! --Accurimbono (disc) 10:55, 4 ago 2020 (CEST)

Tech News: 2020-30

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Modifiche recenti

• Un fix temporaneo del 2012 ha agevolato i wiki nel rendere le proprie pagine principali più mobile-friendly. È stato deprecato nel 2017 e ha smesso di funzionare il 14 luglio. I wiki la cui pagina principale è ora non più visualizzata correttamente su mobile sono 60. Puoi consultarne l'elenco e informarti su come correggerli o chiedere aiuto su Phabricator. Questa notizia era già stata riportata nelle Tech News 2020/24 e 2020/26.

Problemi

• È insorto un problema coi collegamenti interlinguistici. I collegamenti interlinguistici sono link che collegano le pagine alle rispettive versioni in altre lingue. L'ordinamento di questi link non funziona più. Gli sviluppatori stanno lavorando a una soluzione. [99]
• Ci sono utenti che stanno continuando a ricevere notifiche per uno stesso evento. Alcuni di questi eventi sono vecchi. [100]
• Alcuni utenti stanno trovando difficoltà a effettuare l'accesso. La causa è probabilmente un problema coi cookie. Gli sviluppatori stanno cercando di capire a cosa sia dovuto. Se riscontri il problema, puoi informarti su Phabricator. [101]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 21 luglio. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 22 luglio e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 23 luglio (calendario).

Modifiche future

• Esiste il link Versione stampabile. Prossimamente sarà rimosso, in quanto i browser di oggi possono già generare una versione stampabile o mostrare l'anteprima di stampa. [102]

Tech News: 2020-31

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Modifiche recenti

• Il kit di partenza è ora a disposizione delle comunità. La pagina elenca risorse tecniche, strumenti e raccomandazioni essenziali alla gestione di progetti wiki. È utile soprattutto ai wiki più piccoli le cui comunità hanno ancora un'esperienza ridotta. [103]
• Agli utenti che abbiano effettuato l'accesso su qualsiasi wiki sono diventate disponibili le prime funzionalità sviluppate dal progetto Desktop Improvements. Per usarle, togli la spunta a Usa Legacy Vector nella sezione Preferenze temi delle tue preferenze locali o globali. Sono in programma ulteriori miglioramenti. Qualsiasi parere è il benvenuto.
• Su diversi wiki è possibile usufruire dell'accessorio UTCLiveClock. Per i wiki che vogliano importare l'accessorio direttamente da mediawiki.org, gli utilizzatori possono ora scegliere che sia mostrato un orario diverso da UTC.

Problemi

• Questa settimana l'aggiornamento del software MediaWiki è sospeso. [104][105]
• È stato risolto il problema per cui il bot di notifica delle traduzioni stava inviando lo stesso messaggio più volte a ogni traduttore. [106]
• È stato risolto il problema per cui alcuni utenti stavano ricevendo una stessa notifica più volte. [107]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 28 luglio. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 29 luglio e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 30 luglio (calendario).

• Did you know?
  • Newest properties:
    • General datatypes: height of center of mass, road number formatter, Vietnamese middle name, heraldic attitude, traffic sign template image

  • Commons queries:
    • Orienteerers: tinyurl.com/y25qa8ef (source, at 53:45)
    • Animal hugs: tinyurl.com/yykvj26y (source)

• Development
  • The last week was our quarterly prototyping week. We worked on the following projects. None of them are ready for prime-time yet but we'll continue with them.
    • Slices: We've had a lot of requests for accessing dumps of a smaller part of Wikidata's data since rarely anyone needs the complete data in Wikidata. The tricky part is figuring out which part is needed and if any of that can be generalized. We looked into for example how to make dump generation faster so we could potentially produce more smaller dumps that only cover a part of Wikidata's data, either thematically (e.g. humans) or by type of data (e.g. only statements and English labels and aliases but not sitelinks or descriptions).
    • REST API: As part of our effort to make it easier to access Wikidata's data for programmers we looked into a REST API. We tried to see if we could cover the existing action API modules in a REST API. We could. We'll take this as input for our ongoing API work now.
    • Improving quality ratings through ORES: ORES can judge the quality of an Item automatically. It is currently not very good at it however. We tried a few things to make it more accurate and found some easy wins we'll probably make happen in the next weeks.
    • Query manipulator: One of the ways we could potentially improve the load situation of the Wikidata Query Service is by automatically analyzing and then redirecting a bunch of queries to other systems that are more suitable for that particular type of query. The nice thing about that would be that the person/program sending the query wouldn't have to care about it but it'd be done automagically for them. We tried to build such a system and the results look very promising but more work/experimenting is needed, especially together with the WMF Search team.

Tech News: 2020-32

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Problemi

• Tutte le query eseguite su Wikidata Query Service tra le 17:50 e le 17:59 UTC di giovedì 23 luglio sono fallite. Alcune query sono fallite nel corso di un periodo di tempo più esteso. [108]
• Nelle ultime settimane i collegamenti interlinguistici non sono stati visualizzati nell'ordine corretto. Il problema è stato menzionato nelle Tech News di due settimane fa ed è ora risolto. [109]
• C'è un problema con l'opzione "Usa Legacy Vector" nelle preferenze globali. Gli sviluppatori stanno lavorando a una soluzione. [110]
• A causa di un bug nell'estensione Wikibase si erano disabilitati su Wikimedia Commons i tipi di protezione "move" e "create" nel namespace principale (Gallery). Non si potevano impostare nuove protezioni, né venivano applicate quelle esistenti, il che ha fatto sì che alcuni spostamenti e creazioni fossero possibili nonostante non dovessero esserlo. Il bug è stato risolto. [111]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• Il lettore video sarà semplificato e reso più moderno. Questa settimana l'attuale funzionalità sperimentale diventerà il lettore video predefinito su tutti i progetti diversi da Wikipedia. Il vecchio lettore video sarà rimosso. [112]
• D'ora in poi le pagine global.js e global.css degli utenti saranno caricate anche sulla versione mobile. Leggi la documentazione per scoprire come evitare di applicare gli stili alla skin mobile. [113]
• Nella skin MonoBook il selettore searchGoButton è diventato searchButton. Il cambiamento potrebbe riguardare accessori CSS e JS. Le istruzioni per adeguarsi si trovano in T255953. Questa notizia era stata già menzionata nel numero 27.
• I manovratori di bot possono usare Pywikibot per archiviare regolarmente le discussioni. Il comportamento del bot nel modo in cui usa counter per evitare di generare archivi troppo grandi è stato cambiato. [114]
• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 4 agosto. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 5 agosto e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 6 agosto (calendario).

Ciao!

Sto trascrivendo il libro Platone in Italia, volevo chiederti una cosa: in alcune note sono citati dei testi di alcuni autori presenti in Wikisource...occorre citarli? Se si come? --Giukki (disc.) 11:14, 7 ago 2020 (CEST)

Ciao @Giukki, per citare un autore si usa il Template:AutoreCitato, per citare un testo (già presente su Wikisource) usa il Template:TestoCitato. L'uso di questi template non è obbligatorio ma è caldamente consigliato.

Se mi dai il link a una pagina in cui ci sono queste citazioni, ti metto un esempio di utilizzo del template. --Accurimbono (disc) 11:32, 7 ago 2020 (CEST)

https://it.wikisource.org/wiki/Pagina:Cuoco,_Vincenzo_%E2%80%93_Platone_in_Italia,_Vol._I,_1928_%E2%80%93_BEIC_1793340.djvu/37 --Giukki (disc.) 14:46, 7 ago 2020 (CEST)

Ho messo i tl AutoreCitato, ma non quelli TestoCitato in quanto i testi citati non sono presenti in Wikisource. --Accurimbono (disc) 17:13, 7 ago 2020 (CEST)

Modifiche recenti

• Quando annulli una modifica usando il link apposito, il tuo annullamento viene contrassegnato con l'etichetta Annulla. D'ora in poi ciò accadrà soltanto se non modifichi niente nella finestra di modifica prima di pubblicare l'annullamento. In questo modo si previene che gli utenti possano far apparire le proprie modifiche come annullamenti quando in realtà fanno altro. [119]
• La nuova versione OOUI non funziona con Internet Explorer 8. Ciò significa che su Internet Explorer 8 i wiki si visualizzeranno male e presenteranno malfunzionamenti. La notizia era già stata riportata in Tech/News/2020/17. Il cambiamento è dovuto al fatto che mantenere i wiki compatibili con browser molto vecchi comporta altri problemi. [120]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 18 agosto. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 19 agosto e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 20 agosto (calendario).

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Modifiche di questa settimana

• C'è un nuovo diritto utente che consente agli utenti di spostare pagine sovrascrivendo redirect che non abbiano più di una revisione in cronologia. [125]
• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 8 settembre. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 9 settembre e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 10 settembre (calendario).
• D'ora in poi tutti i moduli API useranno watchlist al posto di watch per uniformità. [126]

Modifiche future

• In futuro il team dell'app di Android di Wikimedia potrebbe sviluppare strumenti di patrolling per l'app. Fai sapere loro che strumenti pensi possano essere utili a te o ai patroller meno esperti. Visita la pagina su mediawiki.org.
• OTRS sarà aggiornato alla nuova versione. Probabilmente l'aggiornamento richiederà circa due giorni, durante i quali gli agenti OTRS non avranno accesso al sistema e il recapito delle email in arrivo sarà posticipato alla fine. L'inizio dell'aggiornamento è pianificato per le 08:00 UTC del 14 settembre, ma potrebbe essere riprogrammato. [127]
• L'app di Android di Wikipedia invierà notifiche push agli utenti che le desiderino. Ti aiuteranno a sapere quando per esempio ti viene scritto qualcosa sulla tua pagina di discussione utente o quando ti viene annullata una modifica. Necessitano di Google Play Services per funzionare. Sarà possibile usare l'app senza Google Play Services, ma in quel caso le notifiche push non saranno visualizzate. Google Play Services è anche usato per far funzionare l'app agli utenti su Android 4.4. [128][129]
• La revisione del codice di Wikimedia potrebbe cominciare a essere effettuata tramite GitLab sui server Wikimedia. Partecipa alla consultazione.
• I menu a discesa nella skin Vector usano la classe .menu. Non funzionerà più in futuro. Gli script possono usare al suo posto nav ul. Anche .vectorTabs e .vectorMenu non funzioneranno più. Alcuni script potrebbero aver bisogno di essere aggiornati. Per saperne di più, visita Phabricator.

(The Aggiungi le pagine e i file che modifico agli osservati speciali setting was probably likewise ineffective, but this was not tested specifically.) Affected tools include QuickStatements, Mix'n'Match, and Wikidata Lexeme Forms; users of these and other tools may see more pages being added to their watchlists now. (This only applies to new edits and page creations; previously created or edited pages will not be automatically added to the watchlist retroactively.)

  • Fixing an issue with Item creations via the API by blocked users leading to skipped entity IDs (phab:T232620)
  • Fixed an input issue with invisible characters (phab:T261071)
  • Finishing the draft of the REST API spec to get it ready for feedback
  • WikibaseManifest: created a separate key for local entities and decided what we do about non-local entity sources based on tool-builder feedback (phab:T263527) and specifying the API in OpenApi format (phab:T262919)

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Modifiche recenti

• Gli amministratori possono ora vedere su Speciale:RegistroAbusi i link ai diff di versioni cancellate. L'interfaccia usata è la stessa di Speciale:Ripristina. [135]
• L'aggiunta di utenti ad alcuni gruppi utente avviene in via automatica. Ad esempio, gli utenti che hanno contribuito sufficienti volte e abbastanza a lungo sono inseriti fra gli utenti autoconvalidati. I filtri anti abusi possono rimuovere diritti utente o impedire per un periodo di tempo limitato che a determinati utenti ne siano assegnati automaticamente di nuovi. D'ora in avanti si potrà chiedere su Phabricator che sul proprio wiki la durata di questo periodo sia cambiata. Attualmente è di cinque giorni. [136]

Problemi

• L'anno scorso alcuni filtri anti abusi hanno smesso di funzionare a causa di un cambiamento. Appena provavano a usare variabili non disponibili per l'azione filtrata, fallivano. Il problema è stato risolto. [137]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 29 settembre. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 30 settembre e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 1 ottobre (calendario).

Modifiche future

• Al momento non puoi vedere i collegamenti interlinguistici a versioni in altre lingue sulle pagine di discussione o cronologie. Non ti appaiono nemmeno quando modifichi una voce. Ciò potrebbe cambiare. Non è ancora deciso se ad esempio le cronologie debbano mostrare collegamenti interlinguistici alle altre cronologie o alle voci. Partecipa alla discussione su Phabricator.
• I colori dei link potrebbero cambiare affinché sia più chiara la differenza fra i link e il resto del testo. Leggi maggiori informazioni su Phabricator.
• Nelle preferenze puoi scegliere di ricevere notifiche di vario genere sul web o via email. In settimana vedrai comparire App come nuova alternativa. Le app di Wikipedia per Android e iOS invieranno infatti notifiche push a chiunque le desideri. Puoi dare uno sguardo in anteprima alle preferenze su test wiki. Il piano è introdurre le notifiche push su Android a ottobre e su iOS a inizio 2021. [138]
• Presto potrai aggiungere pagine ai tuoi osservati speciali per un periodo di tempo limitato. Ciò potrebbe tornarti utile quando vuoi tenere d'occhio qualcosa per poco tempo e non hai intenzione di tenere una pagina fra gli osservati speciali per sempre. La funzionalità è già stata attivata su mediawiki.org e lo sarà più tardi su altri wiki. Leggi maggiori informazioni e consulta le date di attivazione sui rispettivi wiki.
• Scopri quali sono i migliori nuovi strumenti tecnici di quest'anno secondo i wikimediani. Puoi proporre strumenti anche tu.

Tech News: 2020-41

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore, informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche ti riguarderanno. Sono disponibili traduzioni.

Modifiche recenti

• Esiste un nuovo strumento per vedere quale sia il wiki principale di ciascun utente intervenuto in una discussione su Meta. Ti può aiutare a capire quali comunità non abbiano preso parte alla discussione.
• Adesso puoi ringraziare altri utenti per il caricamento di file o per aver cambiato la lingua di una pagina. [139]

Problemi

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki della scorsa settimana stava provocando vari errori. È stata ripristinata la versione precedente. Gli aggiornamenti programmati per la scorsa settimana sono stati ritardati. [140]
• Tutti gli utenti registrati sono stati disconnessi. Il motivo è che un utente ha segnalato di essersi ritrovato loggato con l'account di qualcun altro. Il problema dovrebbe essere ora risolto. [141]
• Molte pagine presentano errori JavaScript. Leggi maggiori informazioni e consulta un elenco degli script utente con errori.

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 6 ottobre. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 7 ottobre e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 8 ottobre (calendario).
• Le lettere immediatamente successive a un link sono mostrate come parte del link stesso. Ad esempio, l'intera parola in [[test]]are genera un link. Sui wiki in lingua araba ciò accade sia a inizio sia a fine parola. In precedenza, numeri e altri caratteri Unicode non alfabetici sui wiki in lingua araba venivano mostrati come parte dei link solo se si trovavano a inizio di parola. Ora gli unici caratteri a fondersi nei link sui suddetti wiki saranno le lettere dell'alfabeto latino e arabo. [142]

Modifiche future

• Il 27 ottobre intorno alle 15:00 (CET) potrai leggere, ma non modificare, i wiki per al massimo un'ora. Probabilmente si tratterà di meno di un'ora. [143]

Tech News: 2020-44

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche produrranno effetti per te. Traduzioni disponibili.

Problemi

• Il 27 ottobre intorno alle 15:00 (CET) potrai leggere, ma non modificare, i wiki per al massimo un'ora. Probabilmente si tratterà di meno di un'ora. [152]
• La settimana scorsa i link ai "diff" visualizzati nella pagina degli osservati speciali e delle ultime modifiche sulla versione mobile rinviavano alle versioni delle pagine piuttosto che ai diff. Il problema è stato risolto. [153]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• Non ci saranno nuove versioni di MediaWiki questa settimana.

Modifiche future

• Con l'introduzione del gruppo utente degli amministratori dell'interfaccia nel 2018, gli amministratori non potevano più consultare la cronologia cancellata delle pagine CSS/JS. Adesso possono di nuovo. [154]
• C'è stato un problema con le etichette. Il software applicava l'etichetta "Annullato" a qualsiasi azione sulle pagine (come quella di modifica alle protezioni), purché direttamente successiva a una modifica annullata. L'etichetta è ora applicata correttamente alle nuove modifiche. [155]
• Lo Strumento di risposta diventerà presto una funzionalità beta sulla maggior parte dei progetti Wikipedia. [156]

Tech News: 2020-45

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche produrranno effetti per te. Traduzioni disponibili.

Modifiche recenti

• Per ragioni di sicurezza, è impedito leggere i wiki Wikimedia con browser che usano protocolli TLS molto vecchi. Il cambiamento serve a prevenire possibili attacchi di downgrade. Per gli utenti che usano vecchie versioni TLS non è più possibile connettersi ai progetti Wikimedia dal 29 ottobre 2020. Un elenco di raccomandazioni per i browser è disponibile qui. Tutti i moderni sistemi operativi e browser continueranno a raggiungere i progetti Wikimedia come in precedenza. [157]
• Esiste una nuova categoria di tracciamento automatica: Pagine con argomenti di formatnum non numerici. Raccoglie pagine che usano la funzione parser {{formatnum}} con input (non numerico) non valido, per esempio {{formatnum:TECHNEWS}}. Da notare che anche {{formatnum:123,456}} è un input non valido: come scritto nella documentazione, il parametro dovrebbe essere non formattato, in modo che possa essere localizzato in maniera affidabile e corretta. La categoria di tracciamento aiuterà a identificare usi problematici e formattazione erronea. Il nome della categoria può essere tradotto su translatewiki. [158]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 3 novembre. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 4 novembre e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 5 novembre (calendario).
• Amministratori e steward possono ora usare una pagina speciale (Special:CreateLocalAccount) per forzare la creazione di un'utenza locale per un'utenza globale. È utile quando a un utente è impedita la creazione di un'utenza locale (da un blocco o da un filtro). [159]
• Mercoledì 4 novembre lo Strumento di risposta diventerà una funzionalità beta di tipo opt-in sulla maggior parte dei progetti Wikipedia. Sono escluse le edizioni di Wikipedia in lingua inglese, russa e tedesca, oltre che alcune edizioni di Wikipedia più piccole in circostanze particolari. Leggi la pagina di aiuto e la guida alla risoluzione dei problemi per maggiori informazioni. [160]

Modifiche future

• È ricominciata una discussione sull'uso del segno meno in Unicode (− U+2212) nell'output di {{formatnum}} qualora sia inserito un valore negativo. [161]
• In futuro gli indirizzi IP degli utenti non registrati non saranno mostrati a tutti, ma riceveranno un alias. Ci sarà un nuovo diritto utente o funzione opt-in per permettere a chi combatte il vandalismo di vedere gli IP degli utenti non registrati. Per avere accesso al diritto utente o alla funzione opt-in gli utenti dovranno rispondere ad alcuni criteri. Ci saranno inoltre nuovi strumenti che agevolino la gestione del vandalismo. Il cambiamento è ancora all'inizio del processo e gli sviluppatori stanno raccogliendo informazioni dalle comunità prima di proporre soluzioni.

Tech News: 2020-46

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Changes later this week

• There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

Future changes

• You can see reference previews. This shows a preview of the footnote when you hover over it. This has been a beta feature. It will move out of beta and be enabled by default. There will be an option not to use it. The developers are looking for small or medium-sized wikis to be the first ones. You can let them know if your wiki is interested. [162]
• From November 16 the categories will not be sorted in order for a short time. This is because the developers are upgrading to a new version of the internationalisation library. They will use a script to fix the existing categories. This can take a few hours or a few days depending on how big the wiki is. You can read more. [163][164]

Tech News: 2020-47

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche produrranno effetti per te. Traduzioni disponibili.

Modifiche recenti

• Le pagine nelle categorie sono ordinate a seconda della lingua di ciascun wiki tramite una libreria. Il 16 novembre, se saranno effettuati cambiamenti alle categorie, le rispettive pagine non saranno ordinate correttamente per un breve periodo di tempo. Il motivo è che gli sviluppatori devono eseguire un aggiornamento a una nuova versione della libreria. Successivamente useranno uno script per correggere le categorie esistenti. A seconda della grandezza del wiki ciò potrà richiedere alcune ore o giorni. Leggi maggiori informazioni. [165][166]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• Se unisci due pagine in un namespace in cui non sono ammessi redirect, l'unione cronologie non va a buon fine. Ciò sarà presto corretto. [167]
• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 17 novembre. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 18 novembre e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 19 novembre (calendario).

Modifiche future

• Il sondaggio dei desideri della comunità sta raccogliendo proposte. Il sondaggio serve per decidere a cosa dovrà lavorare il Community Tech team. Le proposte potranno essere avanzate dal 16 al 30 novembre. La fase di votazione sarà dall'8 al 21 dicembre.

Tech News: 2020-49

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche produrranno effetti per te. Traduzioni disponibili.

Modifiche di questa settimana

• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 1 dicembre. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 2 dicembre e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 3 dicembre (calendario).

Modifiche future

• L'app di Wikipedia per iOS mostrerà ai lettori qualcosa in più della cronologia delle voci. I lettori potranno visualizzare aggiornamenti e scoprire più facilmente come la voce è cambiata nel tempo. Questo è un esperimento. Sarà prima condotto sotto forma di test solo su alcuni utenti che usano l'app per iOS. [170][171]
• Grazie alle repliche wiki puoi effettuare interrogazioni mediante query SQL. Ci sono vari servizi che te lo consentono, ad esempio Quarry e PAWS. Al fine di rendere le repliche wiki stabili si verificheranno due cambiamenti. L'uso di JOINS fra un database e l'altro non funzionerà più. Inoltre potrai interrogare un database solo dopo aver instaurato una connessione diretta. Ciò accadrà da febbraio 2021. Se questi cambiamenti ti riguardano e hai bisogno di aiuto, scrivi su Phabricator o su Wikitech. [172]

Il Giorno

Mi dai un'occhiata e una sistemata a Opera:Il giorno? E' un namespace su cui ho lavorato pochissimi. Penso di trasferire le due versioni in pagine ns0 autonome: i link all'attuale collocazione sono da considerare provvisori. --Alex brollo (disc.) 17:04, 1 dic 2020 (CET)

@Alex brollo Certo! Su Wikidata i dati fondamentali per l'Opera ci sono tutti mi pare, ora ci sarebbe da fare un elemento Wikidata per ciascuna delle 3 edizioni che abbiamo e interconnetterli con l'elemento Opera. --Accurimbono (disc) 18:16, 1 dic 2020 (CET)

Tech News: 2020-50

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche produrranno effetti per te. Traduzioni disponibili.

Modifiche di questa settimana

• Informazioni sugli elementi Wikidata collegati a pagine wiki possono essere visualizzate sui wiki Wikimedia fra le modifiche recenti e gli osservati speciali. Perché ti siano mostrate le modifiche su Wikidata devi abilitare l'apposita opzione nelle preferenze. Delle modifiche alle descrizioni degli elementi Wikidata appariranno solo quelle nella lingua del tuo wiki. [175][176]
• La nuova versione di MediaWiki sarà sulle wiki di prova e MediaWiki.org dal giorno 8 dicembre. Sarà disponibile sulle wiki non-Wikipedia e alcune Wikipedia dal giorno 9 dicembre e sulle altre wiki dal giorno 10 dicembre (calendario).

Modifiche future

• Dall'8 al 21 dicembre puoi votare le proposte nel sondaggio sui desideri della comunità. Il sondaggio serve a decidere a cosa lavorerà il team della Community Tech.

Tech News: 2020-52

Ultimo bollettino tecnico della comunità tecnica di Wikimedia. Per favore informa gli altri utenti di queste modifiche. Non tutte le modifiche produrranno effetti per te. Traduzioni disponibili.

Notizie tecniche

• Per via delle vacanze natalizie il prossimo numero delle notizie tecniche uscirà l'11 gennaio 2021.

Modifiche recenti

• Il template {{citation needed}} evidenzia affermazioni nelle voci di Wikipedia che necessitano di fonte. Se ci clicchi sopra mentre usi l'editor visuale, appare un popup in cui ciò è spiegato. Adesso il popup mostrerà, se possibile, anche motivazione e data di aggiunta del template. [178]

Modifiche di questa settimana

• Non ci saranno nuove versioni di MediaWiki questa settimana.

Modifiche future

• Proponi e discuti miglioramenti tecnici per le informazioni geografiche. Potrebbe trattarsi ad esempio di coordinate, mappe o simili.
• Alcuni wiki usano LanguageConverter per consentire il passaggio fra diversi sistemi di scrittura o varietà linguistiche. Ciò può essere fatto per una pagina solo nella sua interezza. In futuro sarà introdotto il tag <langconvert> per la conversione di singole porzioni di testo in una pagina. [179]
• Oversighter e steward possono nascondere voci nel registro del filtro anti abusi. Presto potranno nasconderne più di una alla volta spuntando caselle nello stesso modo in cui si nascondono le normali modifiche. Il cambiamento si verificherà agli inizi di gennaio. [180]
