There will be a new schema forXML dumps. Scripts and apps that use them will need to be updated. If they are not updated they will no longer work.[1] The{{REVISIONID}} magic word will no longer work in the content namespaces. This is for performance reasons. When you preview a page it returns"" (empty string). When you read a page it returns"-" (dash). In the future this will also affect other namespaces. The next ones are file and category namespaces.[2]Tech news prepared byTech News writers and posted bybot •Contribute •Translate •Get help •Give feedback •Subscribe or unsubscribe.

Guild of Copy Editors December 2019 Newsletter Hello and welcome to the December 2019 GOCE newsletter, an update of Guild happenings since theSeptember edition. Our Annual Report should be ready in late January.  Election time: Nominations for the election of a new tranche of Guild coordinators to serve for the first half of 2020 will be open from 1 to 15 December. Voting will then take place and the election will close on 31 December at 23:59 UTC. Positions for Guild coordinators, who perform the important behind-the-scenes tasks that keep our project running smoothly, are open to all Wikipedians in good standing. We welcome self-nominations so please consider nominating yourself if you've ever thought about helping out; it'syour Guild and it doesn't run itself! September Drive: Of the thirty-two editors who signed up, twenty-three editors copy edited at least one article; they completed 39 requests and removed 138 articles from the backlog, bringing the backlog to a low of 519 articles. October Blitz: This event ran from 13 to 19 October, with themes of science, technology and transport articles tagged for copy edit, and Requests. Sixteen editors helped remove 29 articles from the backlog and completed 23 requests. November Drive: Of the twenty-eight editors who signed up for this event, twenty editors completed at least one copy edit; they completed 29 requests and removed 133 articles from the backlog. OurDecember Blitz will run from 15 to 21 December. Sign up now! Progress report: From September to November 2019, GOCE copy editors processed 154 requests. Over the same period, the backlog of articles tagged for copy editing was reduced by 41% to anall-time low of 479 articles. Request archiving: The archiving of completed requests has now been automated. Thanks toZhuyifei1999 andBobbychan193,YiFeiBot is now archiving theRequests page. Archiving occurs around 24 hours after a user's signature and one of the templates{{Done}},{{Withdrawn}} or{{Declined}} are placed below the request. The bot uses the Guild's standard "purpose codes" to determine the way it should archive each request so it's important to use thecorrect codes and templates. Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators;Reidgreg,Baffle gab1978,Miniapolis,Tdslk andTwofingered Typist. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name fromour mailing list. |

<ref follow="…"> to merge footnotes that follow each other. It is meant to be used for digitised books on Wikisource. If the order of the footnotes is wrong no error was shown but the bad <ref> was shown outside the <references /> list.

Pywikibot is a Pythonlibrary to automate work on wikis. It will no longer supportPython 2. Use thepython2 tag if you need to continue running Python 2 scripts. The Pywikibot team strongly recommends to migrate to Python 3. You canget help to do so.[16] The weekly MediaWiki branch cut will soon become automated. The timing for this cut may change. You can discussin Phabricator if this affects you.[17] You canread about coming technical events and mentoring interns.Tech news prepared byTech News writers and posted bybot •Contribute •Translate •Get help •Give feedback •Subscribe or unsubscribe.

Hey, I was checking the accounts you blocked, so I can confirm that they are indeed the same person. The earliest account is in factBossKoolaid (talk ·contribs ·count). I've tagged the three accounts. But I have a question. There is another master from 3 years ago,Bens12345 (talk ·contribs ·count). The technical data between that master and the Boss accounts is very similar, but I don't feel comfortable connecting the two groups without analyzing their behavior. You're the expert.
Can you compare them?--Bbb23 (talk)22:54, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
I don't think that Ben12345 is related. It looks like they're changing years whereas BossKoolaid and his socks have been changing character names. I'm going to tag inRaintheone andJuneGloom07 for their opinions though as they've dealt with the editor a lot more than me.--5 albert square (talk)00:18, 25 January 2020 (UTC)
