  • Updates:
    • LanguageConverter support (limited to a few vairant languages initially) in Parsoid will be deployed today (Wed) to help Services team with RESTBase and API design work on their end.
    • Work in Progress update: The current core parser hooks extension API exposes parsing internals that cannot be supported in Parsoid since those internals aren’t part of Parsoid. In Parsoid, we are developing a newer API that can support existing deployed extensions while also not exposing implementation details. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Parsing/Parser_Hooks_Stats has info about what parser hooks are currently used by which deployed extensions (data as of Oct 2017).
