*Tech News*

   - Because of the holidays
   <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Christmas_and_holiday_season> the next
   issue of Tech News will be sent out on 10 January 2022.

*Recent changes*

   - Queries made by the DynamicPageList extension (<DynamicPageList>) are
   now only allowed to run for 10 seconds and error if they take longer. This
   is in response to multiple outages where long-running queries caused an
   outage on all wikis. [1]

*Changes later this week*

   - There is no new MediaWiki version this week or next week.

*Future changes*

   - The developers of the Wikipedia iOS app are looking for testers who
   edit in multiple languages. You can read more and let them know if you
   are interested
   <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Apps/Team/iOS/202112_testing>.
   - [image: Advanced item] The Wikimedia Cloud VPS
   <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Portal:Cloud_VPS> hosts technical
   projects for the Wikimedia movement. Developers need to claim projects
   <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Cloud_VPS_2021_Purge> they
   use. This is because old and unused projects are removed once a year.
   Unclaimed projects can be shut down from February. [2]
