Product edit

Contributors edit

Editing edit

  • Updates:
    • VE as mobile default A/B test started on July 9th, delayed from original plan due to data instrumentation issues
    • Improved transaction system in VE by more robustly handling (squashing) multiple transactions at once: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T188026
    • Preparing release of next version of edit cards on mobile and improved toolbar work

Readers edit

iOS native app edit

Android native app edit

  • Updates:
    • Switched over suggested-edits queries to production API. Ready to release feature to Beta. (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/3959/ )
    • Android app is ready for a new release with image caption editing feature. We are currently testing before the big release.
    • We also had a minor high-impact bug fixes release, which has helped improve the editing on the app.

Readers Web edit

Readers Infrastructure edit

  • Updates:
    • The /page/mobile-html endpoint is ready to be consumed. Please give feedback, esp. if you see anything that needs to be changed.
    • Structured talk page endpoint launched in the REST API
    • SDC caption and Wikidata description edit suggestions endpoints launched in the REST API
    • Machine vision middleware project in progress: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Product/Machine_vision_middleware

Multimedia edit

  • Updates:
    • preparing for release of arbitrary statements to production commons

Parsing edit

  • Updates:
    • Heads up for Services: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T226931 and https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T217540 -- Kiwix filed this about reparsing support for renames / deletions of images. But this is not necessarily Kiwix specific since presumably apps will also see stale versions without Parsoid reparses. Change Propagation support seems to be missing for these events.
    • Parsoid-PHP Port:
    • Porting parser tests infrastructure so we can run parser tests in PHP instead of relying on JS+PHP hybrid testing as we have till now.
    • Starting to port the rest of the mocha tests.
    • Setting up more CI tests to prevent regressions.

Technology edit

Fundraising Tech edit

  • Updates:
    • About to start testing India donation forms
    • Updating remaining python2 tools to python3
    • CiviCRM <-> third party emailer data interchange enhancements

    • Recurring conversion ask still underway
