Any editor with your level of experience should know better than to cast aspersions and assume bad faith, please stop and engage in discussion. fifteen thousand two hundred twenty four (talk) 05:01, 16 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Hmlarson, do you use an LLM at all for editing? Please see WP:LLMWRITE and WP:NEWLLM, I’m impressed by the work you’ve done here but it’s important that content adheres to core policies and LLM-generated content usually violates several of them.

Hello editor. Your first link is an WP:ESSAY. Thanks for sharing the guideline: WP:NEWLLM. Will you also be sharing the policy WP:HARASS with the other editor(s) who started this so they reign in their poor behavior? If you'd like to be added to that growing list, let me know.

Tech News: 2026-26

[edit]

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

  • Growth features are now available at Wikidata. This update enables access to Mentorship (if configured), Impact module, the Help Panel, and a simplified Newcomer Homepage (without Suggested Edits). Wikidata administrators are still configuring the features through Community Configuration.

Updates for editors

  • The special page Special:RangeCalculator has been created. It allows users to find an IP range without needing to rely on external tools. Until now, this tool was only available to CheckUsers. [1]
  • Sub-referencing is a new MediaWiki feature that allows editors to reuse references with different details. It will be deployed to most small and medium-sized Wikipedia language versions on June 23. The FAQ lists possible actions to take on your wiki to support the deployment. Check the rollout plan for the next deployment steps. [2]
  • Starting next week, users will get a notification when they are blocked or unblocked from editing, or if this block changes. [3]
  • Recurrent item View all 32 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week.

Updates for technical contributors

  • Starting next week, abuse filters that are set to "require CAPTCHA verification" will begin to also affect users with the skipcaptcha right, which includes most autoconfirmed users. Bots are exempted. This change only affects edits that trigger an abuse filter. The skipcaptcha right will continue to exempt users from having to solve CAPTCHAs in the ordinary course of using the wikis. [4]
  • Reference documentation for the Lift Wing API has moved from the API Portal to the interactive REST Sandbox.
  • The API Portal wiki is now closed. For API documentation, see Wikimedia APIs on mediawiki.org. All API Portal wiki URLs (https://api.wikimedia.org/wiki/) will redirect to the mediawiki.org page starting June 22. [5]
  • Recurrent item Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki
