Re: [Wikitech-l] Phabricator upgrade window next Wednesday 00:00 UTC

[Daniel Zahn]

This has happened. The Phabricator production server is now phab1001
(again) and not phab1003 anymore.

Phabricator now runs on Debian stable (buster) and PHP 7.3.

https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T238956  shows all the related patches
and can be used to report issues.

Subject: [Wiki-research-l] Survey on data visualization for Wikipedia
To: Research into Wikimedia content and communities <
wiki-researc...@lists.wikimedia.org>, 


Hi!

As a part of my job at OBC Transeuropa 
among the other things I contribute to Wikipedia and Commons with graphs
and text coming from EDJNet , a
data journalism network we promote that is publishing its content with a
free license.

In the attempt of inserting graphs using MediaWiki instead of svg images I
realised the tool now available are cumbersome and there is the
possibilities for improvement.

Thus we are making a survey to understand if Wikipedia users are interested
in having better tools, allowing to publish better graphs more easily.  So
I ask you to please spend a few minutes of your time to let us now what you
think :)

https://surveys.europeandatajournalism.eu/quiz/data-visualization-for-wikipedia-eng/


The survey is anonymous. You will be given the opportunity to leave your
e-mail address to receive updates on developments, but this is optional.
The results of the survey will be published on EDJNet and on Meta, and I
will also link them here.

Let me know if you have any questions! Thank you!
