Noisy Mediawiki 1.34.4 upgrade

by Jeffrey Walton

Hi Everyone, During a Mediawiki 1.34.3 to Mediawiki 1.34.4 upgrade... When updating vendor components using 'php -d extension=phar.so composer.phar update': Package wikimedia/password-blacklist is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use wikimedia/common-passwords instead. Package jakub-onderka/php-parallel-lint is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use php-parallel-lint/php-parallel-lint instead. Package jakub-onderka/php-console-color is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use php-parallel-lint/php-console-color instead. Package jakub-onderka/php-console-highlighter is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use php-parallel-lint/php-console-highlighter instead. Package phpunit/php-token-stream is abandoned, you should avoid using it. No replacement was suggested. Package phpunit/phpunit-mock-objects is abandoned, you should avoid using it. No replacement was suggested. I don't add things to vendor/, and I did not install packages like password-blacklist or php-parallel-lint. It looks like these are part of a Mediawiki installation. /var/www/html/wiki# find . -name password-blacklist ./vendor/wikimedia/password-blacklist /var/www/html/wiki# find . -name php-parallel-lint ./vendor/jakub-onderka/php-parallel-lint Jeff

MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle 2021.10 release

by Kartik Mistry

Hello all, I would like to announce the release of MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle 2021.10. This bundle is compatible with '''MediaWiki 1.35.3''' or above and requires '''PHP 7.3.19''' or above. Next MLEB is expected to be released in 3 months. If there are very important bug fixes, we will do an intermediate release. Please give us your feedback at [[Talk:MLEB|https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:MLEB]]. * Download: https://translatewiki.net/mleb/MediaWikiLanguageExtensionBundle-2021.10.tar… * sha256sum: ce923b2a661e3a97ec8f0add9eb9369637e02cbb70a47b80a1e50f3e8c0001d6 * Signature: https://translatewiki.net/mleb/MediaWikiLanguageExtensionBundle-2021.10.tar… Quick links: * Installation instructions are at: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MLEB * Announcements of new releases will be posted to a mailing list: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-i18n * Report bugs to: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/1464/ Release notes for each extension are below. -- Kartik Mistry == Highlights == * MLEB now requires MediaWiki 1.35.3 and PHP 7.3.19 * This release contains security fixes. We recommend updating as soon as possible. * Prevent non-wikitext pages from being marked for translation ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/718014|Gerrit]], [[phab:T163254|Phabricator]]) * Add support for moving talkpages when moving translatable pages ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/709102|Gerrit]], [[phab:T41023|Phabricator]]) * The translation UI (TUX) now uses the user preferred edit fonts when displaying the source message & the editor ([[gerrit:c/719641|Gerrit]], [[phab:T213658|Phabricator]]) == Known Issues == * The new Vector skin has a configuration parameter <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> that moves the language links from the sidebar into a menu beside the page title. With MediaWiki 1.36, New Vector (REL1_36 branch) and <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> set to true, the menu beside the title does not respond to click events and is hence unusable. We recommend setting <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> to false if you are using MediaWiki 1.36. == Babel, cldr, and LocalisationUpdate == * Localisation and maintenance updates. == CleanChanges == * Fix: RecentChanges: When filtering with only a nonexistent user, changes from all users are displayed ([ https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/CleanChanges/+/730538 Gerrit], [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T293257 Phabricator]) * Localisation and maintenance updates. == Translate == * SpecialPageTranslation: Show correct number of units marked for translation ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/705885|Gerrit]]) * Fix translation of pages with custom content models ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/693984|Gerrit]], [[phab:T258756|Phabricator]]) * TranslatablePageMover: Fix incorrect target page validation ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/710285|Gerrit]]) * Extended export.php's capabilities to allow exporting everything with a single invocation ([[phab:T287476|Phabricator]]) * Fix Discouraged translatable page is no longer discouraged after move ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/708493|Gerrit]], [[phab:T287373|Phabricator]]) * Special:PageTranslation: Display consistent success/warning/error messages ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714972|Gerrit]]) * Fix Pages discouraged from translation should warn translators ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714215|Gerrit]], [[phab:T237590|Phabricator]]) * Fix TUX should have try again button upon save failure ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713234|Gerrit]], [[phab:T272791|Phabricator]]) * TUX: Ensure optional message is checked based on URL options ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713219|Gerrit]], [[phab:T264075|Phabricator]]) * SpecialTranslate: Fix proofreading tooltip anchor ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713637|Gerrit]], [[phab:T281466|Phabricator]]) * Fix Page display title no longer translatable by default ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/709502|Gerrit]], [[phab:T287816|Phabricator]]) * Fix TUX should not use a wrong uselang value as fallback ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713601|Gerrit]], [[phab:T279252|Phabricator]]) * Add new validator NotEmptyValidator ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/713880|Gerrit]], [[phab:T261305|Phabricator]]) * Add dir/lang attribute for outdated translation header ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714323|Gerrit]], [[phab:T289440|Phabricator]]) * Special:PageTranslation: Require <code><nowiki><translate></nowiki></code> tags on the latest version for marking ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714971|Gerrit]], [[phab:T289697|Phabricator]]) * Special:PageTranslation: <code>tpt-badtitle</code> expects a parameter ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/714970|Gerrit]]) * Use user preferred edit font in sourcemessage & editor ([[gerrit:c/719641|Gerrit]], [[phab:T213658|Phabricator]]) * Fix The page translation language list should use HTML list instead of literal bullet points ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/718862|Gerrit]], [[phab:T280742|Phabricator]]) * Remove language URL parameter in "Translate this page" link ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/720664|Gerrit]], [[phab:T286110|Phabricator]]) * Add support for moving talkpages when moving translatable pages ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/709102|Gerrit]], [[phab:T41023|Phabricator]]) * Redirect page should not block translation page ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/710300|Gerrit]], [[phab:T284116|Phabricator]]) * Prevent non-wikitext pages from being marked for translation ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/718014|Gerrit]], [[phab:T163254|Phabricator]]) * Update moveTranslatablePageScript.php to make moving sub pages the default ([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/721821|Gerrit]]) * Fix Special:PageMigration -

MediaWiki 1.37.0-rc.0 is ready for testing

by Sam Reed

I'm pleased to announce the immediate availability of MediaWiki 1.37.0-rc.0, the first release candidate for 1.37.x. Download links are at the end of the e-mail. The tag has been signed and pushed to Git. This is not a final release, and should not be used for production websites. Known issues are tracked in Phabricator on the release workboard [1]. As with every release of MediaWiki, a large number of changes have landed in the last six months (over 1700 commits since 1.36.0 was cut), and you should read over the preliminary release notes as part of assuring yourself of areas that may have issues with your configuration, your skins, and/or your extensions. As always, please try out the release candidate in a test environment and do report any issues that you discover. Please use the #MW-1.37-Release [2] tag in Phabricator when reporting issues specific to this release, to make sure that we find them as quickly as possible. It is expected that MediaWiki 1.37 will become final in November 2021, though the date may slip if blockers are identified.
