False information

Your bot is editing false information. It states the thirteenth month is called Undecimber. Not historically accurate. Please comply or be reported. 2601:602:C600:4910:ACA0:43F2:725B:7698 (talk) 03:10, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

@2601:602:C600:4910:ACA0:43F2:725B:7698: ClueBot reverts what it deems to be vandalism. I have checked your edit and I agree it should have been reverted. Comments like that do NOT belong in the article body, but on the Talk Page of the relevant article. You are welcome to report ClueBot to the relevant place, but fair warning, you will be laughed out of there - Rich 14:53, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-41

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

Weekly highlight

You can read details about the necessary steps for installation and configuration.

Updates for editors

Updates for technical contributors

  • It is now possible for <syntaxhighlight> code blocks to offer readers a "Copy" button if the copy=1 attribute is set on the tag. Thanks to SD0001 for these improvements.
  • Customized copyright footer messages on all wikis will be updated. The new versions will use wikitext markup instead of requiring editing raw HTML.
  • Advanced item Later this month, temporary accounts will be rolled out on several pilot wikis. The final list of the wikis will be published in the second half of the month. If you maintain any tools, bots, or gadgets on these 11 wikis, and your software is using data about IP addresses or is available for logged-out users, please check if it needs to be updated to work with temporary accounts. Guidance on how to update the code is available.
  • Advanced item Rate limiting has been enabled for the code review tools Gerrit and GitLab to address ongoing issues caused by malicious traffic and scraping. Clients that open too many concurrent connections will be restricted for a few minutes. This rate limiting is managed through nftables firewall rules. For more details, see Wikitech's pages on Firewall, GitLab limits and Gerrit operations.
  • Five new wikis have been created:
