Wikipedia translation of the week: 2026-37
[编辑]The winner this Translation of the week is
Please be bold and help translate this article!
The Paulet affair, also known as British Hawaii, was the insubordinate five-month occupation of the Hawaiian Kingdom in 1843 by British naval officer Captain Lord George Paulet, of HMS Carysfort. It was ended by the arrival of American warships sent to defend Hawaii's independence. The British government in London did not authorise the move and it had no official status.

2026年第37期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻譯版本。
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 面向英语维基百科用户的添加链接功能已完成升级，改进了对大小写不同链接的识别能力。这将有助于减少因条目标题大小写差异（包括涉及文化产品的条目）而产生的歧义建议。目前已规划第二阶段的改进工作，这也将为该功能在其他语言版本中的发布做好准备。 [1] [2]
- 继一项实验之后，简单英语维基百科和土耳其语维基百科将于 2026年9月10日起，默认向初级编辑启用条目撰写指引功能。编辑次数在0到99次之间的初级编辑，在点击红链或使用土耳其语维基百科上的“Madde oluşturto”选项新建条目时，将自动看到该功能。此项变更旨在帮助初级编辑撰写出符合各自维基百科标准的高质量条目。后续将根据实验结果和社群反馈继续进行更多改进。
- 允许用户比较多个页面浏览量的Pageviews Analysis工具今年迎来了10周年，并新增了多项功能。这些新功能包括：提供维基百科读者如何浏览内容相关洞察的WikiNav；Siteviews中的编辑统计数据；查找属于特定维基专题条目的功能；以及对深色模式的支持。 [3]
- 孟加拉语、捷克语、英语、波斯语和波兰语维基百科正在针对使用移动版网页且未登录的读者，测试一种视觉上经过简化的 Minerva导航栏。该实验旨在评估简化导航栏是否能提高读者留存率。测试将于8月31日至9月28日进行，用户无需进行任何操作。
- WMDE技术愿望项目组正在改进可视化编辑器中自动生成的参考文献名称。从本周起，编辑者只会注意到细微的变化：在生成自动参考文献名称时，编号将从
:1开始，而不是:0。欲了解更多信息，请参阅项目页面。 [4] - 9月23日，所有维基站点将进入只读模式几分钟。此操作计划于UTC时间14:00进行。更多信息将在技术新闻中发布，并于未来几周内发布在各个维基站点上。 [5]
上週有25件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，Parsoid错误处理嵌套nowiki标签（导致内容丢失并显示不期望出现的文本）的问题现已修复。 [6]
近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者
- 界面管理员可以在MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition配置小工具。定义格式已更新，不再需要
ResourceLoader选项，因为小工具始终通过ResourceLoader加载。此举移除了不再必要的选项，从而简化了小工具的配置，使管理员定义小工具变得更加容易。 [7] - 本週軟體更新細節： MediaWiki

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2026-38
[编辑]The winner this Translation of the week is
Please be bold and help translate this article!
A no-AI label is a label used on a product to signify that it was not made using generative AI. Phrases on the labels include but are not limited to "human-made", "proudly human" and "AI-free". Some organisations that provide the labels allow product creators to download and use their no-AI labels for free, while others charge creators for analysing the content and allowing the use of the labels if the organisation believes that no AI was used.

Tech News: 2026-38
[编辑]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
- The Future Audiences team has started a discussion on English Wikipedia about a proposed new experiment to show a temporary notice about the new Google Preferred Sources feature to Wikipedia readers coming from Google. The experiment is to test whether this notice makes visitors come back to Wikipedia more often. Preferred Sources feature lets users choose websites they trust so Google can highlight content from those sources more prominently in Search and AI experiences. We are interested in testing this on other languages that Google supports and would welcome assistance with starting conversations on other wikis. If interested, please reach out to Future Audiences on the talk page.
Updates for editors
- The chat platform Discord is releasing a new self-service framework that websites can use to specify how their links should look when shared on Discord. The Future Audiences team is planning to start using this new framework to improve how Wikipedia links look when shared on Discord, giving better attribution and credit to contributors. The link appearance and behavior won't change in the first phase of this project as we want to first collect some baseline data to assess the impact of future changes. However, if community members who are active on Discord spot any issues, they can reach out on Phabricator or Metawiki.
- The Reader Growth team will be running an experiment to test whether compacting article lead sections on mobiles with the addition of a "read more" button improves reader retention. The test will begin on September 17 on Arabic, Spanish, French, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Vietnamese, and Chinese Wikipedias and will run for four weeks.
- All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on September 23. This is planned at 14:00 UTC. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis in the coming week. [8]
- View all 28 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, an issue where Wikistats for Wikipedias was returning an HTTP 500 error and could not be reached, has now been fixed. [9]
Updates for technical contributors
- Developers who maintain a tool that queries the Wikimedia Commons links tables need to update their code to connect to the new x4 database cluster. The links tables have been moved from the s4 cluster to x4, and will no longer receive updates on s4. The page and redirect tables remain available on both clusters. A wiki replica for the x4 cluster will be set up afterwards. The change is being made because the s4 cluster has grown too large to operate efficiently. You can read more.
- Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2026-39
[编辑]The winner this Translation of the week is
Please be bold and help translate this article!
Scotty is the nickname for the Tyrannosaurus rex fossil, catalogued as RSM P2523.8, that was discovered in Saskatchewan, Canada in 1991.[3] The fossilised remains were painstakingly removed, almost completely by hand, over two decades from the rock in which they were embedded. When the preparation was complete in 2011, an around 65% complete T. rex skeleton was revealed.

2026年第39期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻譯版本。
本週要聞
- 2026年9月23日14:00 UTC，所有维基站点将进入只读模式，持续数分钟。此举是为了进行数据中心服务器切换备份测试，该测试每年进行两次。在切换过程中，所有维基媒体网站的流量将从主数据中心转移至备用数据中心，以测试可用性并确保即使在紧急情况下服务也不会中断。 [10]
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 成长团队测试了一项新的编辑后提示，以鼓励临时账户持有者注册永久账户。这项新提示取代了原有的多个对话框及同步显示的欢迎通知，改为仅展示一条强调创建账户益处的信息。该实验使永久账户的创建率从1.94%提升至3.66%，相对增幅达87%。该变更现将推广至所有维基站点。 [11]
- 对于使用“建议模式”测试版功能的维基百科编辑者，现有一项新的可选用户偏好设置，用于显示“实验性”编辑检查与建议。这些类型列于Special:EditChecks，旨在供开发者进行早期测试并收集资深用户的反馈。管理员可照常更改各项建议的配置详情。管理员还可以利用此功能，协助测试社群针对本地创建的检查与建议提出的构想。本周晚些时候，这些实验性类型将采用更具辨识度的视觉样式。欢迎提供反馈。
- CEE Technical Village Pump已正式设立，为中东欧地区的维基媒体社群提供一个进行技术讨论与协作的平台。
- 面向新兴及小型语言维基百科社群的一项新工具——入门套件，现已推出。该工具整合了引导式任务、各类工具及资源，以帮助社群起步、追踪进展，并与更广泛的维基媒体社群开展协作。入门套件托管于Wikimedia Toolforge平台，专为条目数少于50,000篇的维基百科项目设计。欢迎阅读这篇Diff博客文章，了解入门套件的运作方式及社群的实际应用情况。

2026年第40期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻譯版本。
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 对于使用桌面版和移动版网页默认皮肤（分别为Vector 2022和Minerva）的用户，当他们在搜索框输入内容并看到搜索建议时，系统现在会提示这些建议是否源自页面重定向。此前，如果搜索建议列表首位的条目与用户的实际输入不完全匹配，用户可能会感到困惑。新增的重定向提示明确了这些建议并非随机生成，而是与搜索内容相关的；这些建议页面可能是指向用户实际想要查找的最相关目标条目的重定向页面。 [14]
- 使用移动版网页浏览维基百科的未登录用户，将看到一个用于将条目保存至阅读列表的书签按钮，以取代现有的监视星标按钮。点击该书签按钮时，系统会提示用户登录或创建账户，以便保存条目供日后阅读。此前的一项实验发现，与监视星标按钮相比，书签图标促使未登录用户创建账户的可能性高出四倍。此次调整旨在鼓励更多读者注册账户，并使用有助于保存及回访内容的相关功能。 [15]
- 一项简化用户创建账户后即时体验的实验将于9月29日在西班牙语、阿拉伯语、英语和法语维基百科上启动。该测试将探讨移除现有欢迎问卷中的操作阻碍，是否有助于新用户更轻松地了解后续步骤。实验将持续至10月底。 [16]
- 产品与技术咨询委员会现向社群征集议题，以便与维基媒体基金会进行考量与探讨。欢迎编辑和技术贡献者在委员会的讨论页上添加议题。
- 本周晚些时候，社群将能够配置编辑检查与建议，使其在更多命名空间中显示（例如
Draft:命名空间）。欢迎提供反馈。 - 全域监视列表中的一个程序错误导致在维基共享资源上有未读更改的用户无法加载该页面。开发人员正在修复此问题。在此期间，受影响的用户可以按照相关帮助章节中描述的变通方法进行操作。
- 现已新增
{{CATEGORYSORT:TIMESTAMP}}和{{CATEGORYSORT:RTIMESTAMP}}这两个魔术字，可将分类的默认排序方式更改为基于归类时间戳进行排序。 [17] - 上週有20件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，此前无法访问维基百科的Wikistats问题现已修复。 [18]
近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者
- 原定于9月23日进行的数据中心切换已推迟。在昼夜平分点演练期间发现的容量问题，导致无法将所有服务切换至另一数据中心。目前该流程已暂停，我们将优先排查并解决该问题，以确保能继续为用户提供可靠的服务。我们将另行安排新的演练。在此期间，所有流量和编辑操作均照常进行。
- 9月23日，一次电力中断短暂影响了所有维基站点，导致阅读和编辑模式出现间歇性问题。Gerrit也受到了影响。此事与数据中心切换工作的推迟无关。 [19]
- Produnto现已部署至mediawiki.org及部分印度语言维基站点。我们希望能听到您对这款实验性产品的反馈。Produnto允许用户使用托管于维基媒体GitLab上的Lua模块，从而简化了各维基站点间Lua代码的共享流程。用户无需再将单个Lua模块从一个维基站点逐一复制到另一个站点，而是可以轻松地在所有维基站点间共享代码包。
- 本週軟體更新細節： MediaWiki
會議與活動
- 一场跨维基代码协作研讨会将于10月2日12:30 UTC在线举行，旨在汇集南亚地区的技术贡献者，让他们了解Produnto并着手在印地语、旁遮普语、奥里亚语、泰卢固语和马拉雅拉姆语维基百科上试用该工具。Produnto是一款用于将托管于GitLab上的Lua模块部署到维基媒体各维基站点的软件包管理器，近期已在部分试点维基站点上完成部署。

Tool of the week
- HumansMap Gallery - The site offers various type of visualizations, and offers the possibility to navigate through connections between people and organizations, based on your interests, powered by Wikidata.
- 📚 Wikidata Book Itemizer It is a simple tool to catalog books on Wikidata! Creating work and edition items manually on Wikidata with proper metadata and multilingual labels can often be tedious and error-prone. Wikidata Book Itemizer automates this entire process with a simple form!
Other Noteworthy Stuff
- Wikimedia Deutschland is researching how to improve interoperability between Wikidata, Wikibase Cloud, and Wikibase Suite. If you've worked with data imports or staging, or even if you haven't, your input would be valuable. The survey takes 5 to 10 minutes and is anonymous. More information on the background of the questions: Wikidata:Requests for comment/Mass-editing policy#Context
Newest properties and property proposals to review
- Newest properties:
- General datatypes: none
- External identifiers: Union Catalogue Database of Japanese Texts ID, Siwar entry ID, Kunaicho Shoryobu Shuzo Kanseki Shuran ID, Emulation General Wiki article ID, Digital Momijiyama Bunko ID, Raras disease ID
- New property proposals to review:
- General datatypes:
- Writers at Risk database ID (Identifier in the PEN America Writers at Risk database, cataloging writers threatened, imprisoned, and jailed worldwide)
- External identifiers: Ohio Entity Number, NZPCN legacy ID, Žmonės.lt topic ID, Jersey HER Reference, Identifiant d'un(e) auteurice dans le Maitron, Google Search profile handle, Leipziger Biographie ID, LEO-BW person ID, Biopsa ID, Isle of Man Registered Building No., Waymark code, Identifiant dans OrthodoxWiki en français, WE League player ID, WE League manager ID, Delfi.lt topic ID, Lrytas.lt topic ID, Baidu Baike article
- General datatypes:
You can comment on all open property proposals!
Did you know?
- Query examples: Latin American Cinema / Films with an English or Portuguese Wikipedia page, but not Spanish
- Schema examples: (E422) 'Golden age of illustration' book from the Maastricht University Library collection.
- Newest WikiProjects:
- Project Schlaraffia - for enriching items about the German-language fraternity Schlaraffia (Q1305789) and its international and local associations.
- Project Tamil Nadu dedicated to creating and improving Wikidata content related to Tamil Nadu (Q1445) and Tamil (Q5885).
- WikiProject Highlights: Project PCC EMCO Wikidata CoP added a subpage for listing Properties normally associated with Corporate bodies.
Development
- Mobile statement editing: We are continuing with UX fixes. This is primarily visual polish and consistency as well as fixing bugs related to RTL display.
- Wikibase REST API:
- We are finishing the support for creating Lexemes and the statements on them.
- We are continuing working on support for adding Forms to a Lexeme.
- Wikidata integration in the other Wikimedia projects:
- We are going to stop sending language link changes to the first few wikis. An initial deployment to group1 wikis is now planned for Monday, 05.10.2026. (Click group1 on this Toolforge page to see which Wikis are included.) This will help reduce noise in Watchlists and Recent changes and help reduce the size of the database table holding recent changes on these wikis.
- Connecting a newly created Wiki to Wikidata is a manual task, we are automating that and optimising the SitesTable at the same time, making a 'single source of truth' that all wikis point to, rather than a table per Wiki that are all clones of each other.
- We are experimenting with raising the entity usage limit on wikis. If this is feasible, we can reduce the amount of bundled changes. This would reduce the quantity of Wikidata-triggered Recent Changes rows being created.
You can see all open tickets related to Wikidata here. If you want to help, you can also have a look at the tasks needing a volunteer.

2026年第41期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻譯版本。
本週要聞
- 今年的社群愿望清单流程已公布。这是在听取社群反馈后制定的。计划组建一个工作组，成员包括熟悉愿望征集流程及MediaWiki代码库的社群成员以及维基媒体基金会的工作人员。计划于10月下旬或11月上旬开放新愿望的提交，并预计在11月下旬完成初步筛选工作。欲了解更多信息，请参阅已公布的流程详情。
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 使用可视化编辑器的编者在将文本粘贴到维基百科时，如果该文本很可能是最初从五种外部生成式AI聊天机器人之一复制而来的，将会看到一条警告。此功能被称为LLM粘贴检查，属于一种可由社群配置的编辑检查机制。该检查通过识别复制内容中的HTML标记来运作，并不使用内容水印检测技术。相关编辑还会被标记，以便巡查员进行更仔细的审查。该功能既能帮助新手添加符合维基百科方针的内容，也能让经验丰富的编辑更容易识别出存在问题的编辑。对于制定了关于LLM使用之本地方针的社群，可以调整提示文案及所链接的方针页面。开发团队致歉，因为该功能在推出时未预留时间进行多语言翻译。
- 编者现在可以轻松地直接从iOS和Android应用访问网页版可视化编辑器。打开编辑器时，用户可以选择可视化编辑或源代码编辑。若选择可视化编辑，系统会将用户引导至手机浏览器中的移动网页界面；完成编辑后，页面顶部的横幅会提供返回应用的选项。这使得读者能够在随手阅读的同时，快速进行编辑贡献。
- 使用维基百科Android和iOS应用的用户，在连续使用两周后，将会看到一次创建账户的提示。该提示意在说明拥有账户的益处，并帮助更多普通读者转变为会定期回访应用的登录用户。 [20]
- 在group1 wiki（包括维基语录、维基教科书、维基学院、维基导游和维基文库）上，当页面对应的维基数据项中有关其他语言版本的链接被添加、移除或修改时，编者将不再在最近更改和监视列表中收到相关通知。此项变更将于协调世界时（UTC）10月5日07:00开始进行为期两周的试运行，以减少高频次但低价值的通知，从而更易于识别重要变更。依赖此类通知的编者可查阅项目页面了解详情，或在讨论页发表意见或提出疑虑。 [21]
- 上週有36件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，此前已退出导师计划的导师仍会被分配学员并收到提问，这一问题现已修复。现在，当导师退出计划时，其学员会被重新分配。 [22]
近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者
- 巴西维基媒体分会发布了其开发最佳实践框架（ABPD）。这是一份面向开发技术工具与项目的员工、承包商及志愿者的指南，涵盖了项目生命周期、安全性、无障碍性、个人数据保护及负责任的人工智能使用等内容，并阐述了如何将维基媒体运动的通用准则调整以适应本地实际情况。他们鼓励其他分会复用并根据自身需求调整该框架。欲了解更多信息，请阅读Diff上的相关文章。
- Wikimedia API即将启用一个新的标准基础URL。该新标准路径遵循
{projectName}/api/模式，将作为现有REST API（例如：{projectName}/w/rest.php/）的替代访问路径。所有现有API均支持通过这两种路径进行调用，但新创建的API模块将优先采用这一新结构。对于大多数用户而言，此次变更不会导致现有功能中断；针对现有端点的所有请求，原有的访问路径将继续有效。不过，部分端点可能会在响应正文中返回符合新模式的URL。相关变更将首先在测试维基上部署，预计到10月底将覆盖所有维基站点。 [23] - 本週軟體更新細節： MediaWiki.

2026年第42期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻譯版本。
本週要聞
- 自10月13日起，各wiki站点可以更改可视化编辑器中自动生成的参考文献名称的默认格式（当前为
<ref name=":1" />）。站点将能够使用基于内容且易于理解的参考文献名称，这对使用源代码编辑器的贡献者更有帮助（例如<ref name="Miller2026-1" />）。可视化编辑器的参考文献名称格式可以通过MediaWiki系统信息、JSON、模板和模块进行定义（更多信息）。管理员可以通过社群配置启用这些更改。这是由WMDE技术愿望项目实现的一项社群愿望。 [24] - 子引用是一项新的MediaWiki功能，允许编辑者在复用参考文献时指定不同的详细信息。该功能将于10月14日部署至英语维基百科，并于10月底（预计为10月21日）部署至维基媒体基金会旗下的其余wiki站点。常见问题解答列出了您的wiki站点为支持此次部署可采取的措施。这是由WMDE技术愿望项目实现的一项长期以来的社群愿望。 [25][26]
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 管理员工具将移除监视列表的列表视图，并将所有用户的默认视图设置为更改日志视图。此前，移动版网页上的监视列表有两种显示方式：一种是列表视图（以列表形式展示所监视的页面），另一种是更改日志视图（以日志形式展示所监视页面的更改）；用户可通过高级移动端控制设置在两者间切换。这种双重显示模式给代码库维护带来了难题，因为这意味着需要同时管理两套代码。改用更改日志视图作为默认设置，有助于简化代码库并降低遗漏程序错误的风险。
- 维基百科Android应用正在测试一项新功能，允许用户在“为你推荐”信息流中收听条目简介。该功能利用文本转语音模型朗读现有的条目内容，既不改写原文，也不添加任何额外信息。这项为期30天的实验将于9月第三周在维基百科Beta版应用中启动，随后于10月推广至正式版维基百科Android应用，并面向部分符合条件的用户开放。只有一小部分应用用户（即使用英语信息流且至少关注了一个兴趣话题的用户）能够体验此功能。此次实验是维基百科提升用户参与度和留存率的系列举措之一，以便为应用读者提供更多样化的内容消费方式。了解详情并分享反馈。
- 9月14日，英语维基百科默认对所有未登录及新注册用户启用了CodeMirror语法高亮功能。鉴于未出现任何不良影响，现提议在未来几周内将此变更推广至所有wiki站点。如果您有任何疑虑或反馈，或者您的wiki站点希望选择不启用此功能，请参阅帮助页面。 [27]
- 支持所有数据类型的维基数据移动端陈述编辑功能将于10月13日正式上线；届时，该功能将从维基数据测试功能中移除，并向所有编辑者开放。用户可以报告错误并分享反馈。
- 上周，维基导游、维基文库、维基学院、维基语录和维基词典上的最近更改和监视列表订阅源移除了关于语言链接变更的记录。由于未发现不良影响，维基数据支持维基媒体项目团队计划将此变更推广至所有维基百科站点。该变更定于协调世界时（UTC）10月13日07:00实施；届时，当页面对应维基数据项中的“其他”语言版本链接被添加、移除或修改时，编辑者将不再收到相关通知。依赖此类通知的编辑者可参阅项目页面了解详情，或在讨论页分享反馈及申请让其所属wiki站点退出此项变更。 [28]
- 上週有28件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，此前使用移动设备在Pageviews工具上滚动页面时，若不慎触碰图表可能会导致意外缩放，这一问题现已修复。在触控设备上，点击并拖动缩放的功能已被禁用。 [29]
近況更新 - 面向技術貢獻者
- 数据转储将迎来三大变化：旧版内容转储（2026年1月弃用）将停止服务；作为替代方案的MediaWiki内容文件导出将延迟推出，以便预留“安全缓冲期”；转储文件现已提供7zip压缩格式。用户需要更改下载转储文件时使用的URL。如需了解更多信息、时间表及迁移指南，请参阅旧版内容转储停止服务。

- 为了评估引入社群所请求的功能对未登录读者留存率的影响，我们将针对未登录读者开展一项关于图像轮播的测试。通过图像轮播功能，读者可以浏览由社群上传、并由编辑精选出的与特定条目相关的图片。该测试将于11月20日启动。
- 我们将向0.5%通过Google访问英文维基百科且处于未登录状态的移动端读者推送一则测试性提示，邀请他们将维基百科添加为Google首选来源。此次测试用来评估该提示能否提升读者留存率，并鼓励使用Google搜索的用户更频繁地访问维基百科。测试将于10月15日至29日期间进行，届时将评估其对读者留存及引流效果的影响。
- 上週有26件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，此前存在一个问题，当用户尝试执行SQL查询时会收到“拒绝访问”错误，导致查询无法正常运行。现已得到修复。 [30]

本週要聞
- 9月29日开始的实验正在为视作读者的新账号持有者测试条目推荐。与维基百科应用内的面向已登录读者的推荐类似，通过建议要阅读的条目，此实验意在鼓励新账号持有者定期阅读与回到网站，目标是将站内引导访问量提升1%。参见相关的社群愿望清单提议。
- 由于PHP中的安全漏洞，数个维基媒体服务于上一周下线。这是因为它们需要在能够安全地重新上线之前更新。这不是只针对维基媒体运动的问题，但影响很多网站。你可以关注Wikitech上的最新消息。Cloud VPS和Toolforge将需要更长的时间以重新上线。这是为了保证依靠Could VPS和Toolforge运行的应用程序不受影响。工具开发者可以在Cloud通知电邮列表查看最新消息和更多信息。 [32][33]
- 上周我们曾提到，为了评估引入社群所请求的功能对未登录读者留存率的影响，我们将针对未登录读者开展一项关于图像轮播功能的测试。由于出现了一些问题，我们将重启该测试；测试将于10月26日正式上线，而非此前宣布的11月20日。
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 新的机器人检测系统即将来到维基媒体wiki，以更好地鉴别假扮成人类访问者的自动化流量。这可能会导致访客统计数据出现突发性变化，影响范围涵盖从2026年6月20日起至10月26日（及之后）的期间。
- 由于一个安全问题，在维基页面渲染乐谱的乐谱扩展已在所有维基上被临时停用。受影响的页面将会显示通知而非乐谱，但内部代码保持不变。编者不需要做出任何操作，并且此问题目前正在被修复。当扩展被重新启用时，将会进行单独通知。在Phabricator阅读更多。
- 上週有18件由社群提交的工單得到解決。 例如，此前在现有编辑器中错误地启用了CodeMirror语法高亮显示的问题，现已得到修复。 [34]

- 2026年10月28日15:00 UTC，所有维基将进入只读模式，持续数分钟。此举是为了进行数据中心服务器切换备份测试，该测试每年进行两次。在切换过程中，所有维基媒体网站的流量将从主数据中心转移至备用数据中心，以测试可用性并确保即使在紧急情况下服务也不会中断。 [35]

Please be bold and help translate this article!
AI washing is a deceptive marketing tactic that consists of promoting a product or a service by overstating the role of artificial intelligence (AI) and the integration of it. Companies often involve in the practice to mislead customers to boost their offerings, and to secure funding from investors. The practice raises concerns regarding transparency, and legal issues.

2026年第45期技術新聞
[编辑]維基媒體技術社群現在發布最新的技術新聞。請告知其他用户這些更改；不是所有的更改都會對您造成影響。技術新聞提供其他語言的翻譯版本。
本週要聞
- 上周，由于PHP中存在的一处安全漏洞，许多维基媒体工具被迫下线。这一问题波及了全球范围内的众多网站。自10月22日起，Toolforge和Cloud VPS已恢复运行。许多重要工具也已陆续恢复正常。部分工具需要由各自的志愿维护者手动重启；另一些工具则需升级至已修复该漏洞的PHP版本。还有一些工具所使用的PHP版本过旧，无法应用最新的安全补丁，因此需要维护者将其升级至较新的版本。这可能需要投入额外的工作。您可以在Wikitech上关注相关进展。
近況更新 - 面向編輯者
- 维基百科的Android和iOS应用目前正在针对阿拉伯语、法语和日语维基百科开展一项新的可选搜索实验。参与的读者可以在条目内进行搜索，并直接在原始条目中打开所引用的段落；该功能不会生成任何答案或摘要。这是语义搜索第二阶段中四项实验的第一项。该实验于10月22日启动，为期20天。欢迎在项目的讨论页面上提供反馈。
- 未来受众团队正计划在移动版维基百科上推出分享卡片功能。该功能允许用户根据当前阅读的条目，生成一张精美的卡片并分享给朋友。卡片中包含条目标题、配图、正文开头及相关来源信息，并附有指向原文的链接，方便接收者阅读全文。欢迎各位编辑在10月29日至11月8日期间进行试用，只需在任意条目的网址后添加
?useformat=mobile&sharecard=1即可。欢迎在项目讨论页分享您的想法，并通过Phabricator报告遇到的任何问题。 - 11月2日起，数学公式的默认渲染方式将发生变更。变更后，服务器将以MathML格式发送公式，并由您的浏览器通过MathJax进行渲染显示。出于系统可持续性和安全性的考量，这是停用Mathoid/RESTBase进程中的最后一步。如有疑问或遇到问题，欢迎在此提出或反馈。 [36]
- 您有新功能的想法，或者需要修复的错误吗？ 歡迎在11月8日之前，向社群願望清單提出您的想法！
- 上週有41件由社群提交的工單得到解決。
