Latest *tech news <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News>* from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2022/36> are available. *Changes later this week* - The new version <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.39/wmf.28> of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 6 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 7 September. It will be on all wikis from 8 September (calendar <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.39/Roadmap>). - Some wikis will be in read-only for a few minutes because of a switch of their main database. It will be performed on 6 September at 07:00 UTC (targeted wikis <https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=dblists/s1.dblist>) and on 8 September at 7:00 UTC (targeted wikis <https://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=dblists/s3.dblist>). - On Special pages that only have one tab, the tab-bar's row will be hidden in the Vector-2022 skin to save space. The row will still show if Gadgets use it. Gadgets that currently append directly to the CSS id of #p-namespaces should be updated to use the mw.util.addPortletLink <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/ResourceLoader/Core_modules#addPortletLink> function instead. Gadgets that style this id should consider also targeting #p-associated-pages, the new id for this row. Examples are available <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T316908>.
