Can you please help

Hello @Ratekreel hope you are doing well. As you might know that the unreviewed backlog of GODL-India is very big. So waiting for my uploads to be reviewed is like seeing the end. Can you please review some of my uploads. I shall be obliged.

I understand that the list is quite long bcoz of so many crops so you can do it as per your comfort. ShaanSengupta^Talk 04:31, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

Shaan Sengupta, sure! I'd be glad to lend a hand. --Ratekreel (talk) 06:55, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

Shaan Sengupta, done! Some of the files were already reviewed by C1K98V. Some files had incorrect template parameters used and were thus fixed. Ratekreel (talk) 07:40, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

Yes @Ratekreel I saw that. Thank you so much for the help. This was pending since long. My upload backlog before 15 June 2024 is reviewed now. I will once more provide you the list of second batch. I believe you have already spent much time on this today. I hope it won't be hectic. Sorry for the bothering and thanks once again. Cheers. ShaanSengupta^Talk 07:48, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

No problem, Shaan. I'd be happy to help! Ratekreel (talk) 10:20, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

Thank you so much. Here is the second batch.

• File:Prime Minister Of Bharat Shri Narendra Damodardas Modi with Prime Minister Of Japan Mr. Fumio Kishida.jpg
• File:2024 General Election to Legislative Assembly of Haryana.pdf
  • File:2024 General Election to Legislative Assembly of Haryana.jpg

Once this batch is cleared only the ones of Modi meeting with T20 WC winners will be left. Thank you. ShaanSengupta^Talk 03:54, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

Shaan Sengupta, done! I would like to note that File:2024 General Election to Legislative Assembly of Haryana.pdf is just File:2024 General Election to Legislative Assembly of Haryana.jpg in pdf format. I don't think there's any use for this file, especially when it's included in File:2024 General Election to Legislative Assembly of UT of Jammu and Kashmir.pdf and is also available separately in jpg form. --Ratekreel (talk) 10:37, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the help. I know that. I uploaded it first in pdf format and then in the jpg. I thought that pdf version should be kept as it is taken from a pdf only. I am totally ok if you believe that it can be deleted. Its just that I thought it would be good that way. ShaanSengupta^Talk 12:02, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

FYI, you have left File:Prime Minister Of Bharat Shri Narendra Damodardas Modi with Prime Minister Of Japan Mr. Fumio Kishida.jpg and File:2024 General Election to Legislative Assembly of Haryana.pdf. Please do the favours. ShaanSengupta^Talk 12:10, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

Shaan Sengupta, reviewed File:Prime Minister Of Bharat Shri Narendra Damodardas Modi with Prime Minister Of Japan Mr. Fumio Kishida.jpg. I believe that File:2024 General Election to Legislative Assembly of Haryana.pdf is duplicate and should be deleted for the reason I mentioned above. --Ratekreel (talk) 13:24, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

Thanks for the barnstar, Panini!. I'm happy that I was able to help. --Ratekreel (talk) 07:16, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

Tech News: 2024-42

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Updates for editors

• The Structured Discussion extension (also known as Flow) is starting to be removed. This extension is unmaintained and causes issues. It will be replaced by DiscussionTools, which is used on any regular talk page. A first set of wikis are being contacted. These wikis are invited to stop using Flow, and to move all Flow boards to sub-pages, as archives. At these wikis, a script will move all Flow pages that aren't a sub-page to a sub-page automatically, starting on 22 October 2024. On 28 October 2024, all Flow boards at these wikis will be set in read-only mode. [1][2]
• WMF's Search Platform team is working on making it easier for readers to perform text searches in their language. A change last week on over 30 languages makes it easier to find words with accents and other diacritics. This applies to both full-text search and to types of advanced search such as the hastemplate and incategory keywords. More technical details (including a few other minor search upgrades) are available. [3]
• View all 20 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, EditCheck was installed at Russian Wikipedia, and fixes were made for some missing user interface styles.

Updates for technical contributors

• Editors who use the Toolforge tool Earwig's Copyright Violation Detector will now be required to log in with their Wikimedia account before running checks using the "search engine" option. This change is needed to help prevent external bots from misusing the system. Thanks to Chlod for these improvements. [4]
• Phabricator users can create tickets and add comments on existing tickets via Email again. Sending email to Phabricator has been fixed. [5]
• Some HTML elements in the interface are now wrapped with a <bdi> element, to make our HTML output more aligned with Web standards. More changes like this will be coming in future weeks. This change might break some tools that rely on the previous HTML structure of the interface. Note that relying on the HTML structure of the interface is not recommended and might break at any time. [6]

In depth

• The latest monthly MediaWiki Product Insights newsletter is available. This edition includes: updates on Wikimedia's authentication system, research to simplify feature development in the MediaWiki platform, updates on Parser Unification and MathML rollout, and more.
• The latest quarterly Technical Community Newsletter is now available. This edition include: research about improving topic suggestions related to countries, improvements to PHPUnit tests, and more.
