Parsoid

edit
  • Timing stats enabled in production for Parsoid for the wt2html and html2wt api endpoints. Nothing unexpected showing up.
  • Parsoid can now handle one more (last one?) unspported templated table-cell scenarios that were an uneasy fit with HTML DOM semantics ( https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T88495 ) -- change deployed Monday, Feb 23rd.
  • Next Monday (March 2), we will push a change to production that changes the DOM spec for <ref> tags ( https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T88290 , Unmerged patch: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/191593/ ). Announcement made on wikitext-l. VE will be deploying changes this week to accept new output. Content translation: please confirm that you are aware of and can handle this change.
