VisualEditor News #6—2015[muokkaa wikitekstiä]
Tiesitkö?
Uusi, yksinkertaisempi muokkausjärjestelmä sisältää vain yhden muokkaa-painikkeen. Kun sivu on avattu, voit vaihtaa edestakaisin visuaalisen muokkaimen ja wikitekstin muokkaustilan välillä.
Jos haluat mieluummin erilliset muokkauspainikkeet, voit asettaa tämän asetuksissasi, joko seuraavalla kerralla avautuvassa ponnahdusikkunassa avatessasi visuaalisen muokkaimen, tai menemällä sivulle Special:Preferences ja valitsemalla haluamasi asetukset.
Nykyinen suunnitelma on, että oletusasetuksena muokkaupainike avaa muokkausmenetelmän, jota olet käyttänyt viime kerralla.
Voit lukea ja auttaa kääntämään käyttöoppaan, jossa on enemmän tietoa visuaalisen muokkaimen käyttämisestä.
Lue tämä toisella kielellä • Monikielisen uutiskirjeen tilauslista
Viimeisimmän uutiskirjeen jälkeen visual editor -tiimi on korjannut useita vikoja ja laajentanut matemaattisten kaavojen työkalua. Heidän tehtävälistansa löytyy Phabricatorista. Heidän tämänhetkiset prioriteettinsa ovat tuki kielille kuten japani ja arabia, sekä rich-media-työkalujen tarjoaminen kaavoille, kaavioille, gallerioille ja lataamiselle.
Viimeaikaiset parannukset[muokkaa wikitekstiä]
Voit vaihtaa wikitekstistä visuaaliseen muokkaimeen sen jälkeen, kun olet aloittanut muokkaamisen. LaTeX:n matemaattista kaavamuokkainta on laajennettu huomattavasti. (T118616) Voit nähdä kaavan muokatessasi LaTeX-koodia. Voit napsauttaa painikkeita asettaaksesi oikean LaTeX-koodin monille symboleille.
Tulevat muutokset[muokkaa wikitekstiä]
Yksi muokkauspainike -projekti yhdistää "Muokkaa" -ja "Muokkaa wikitekstiä" -välilehdet yhteen "Muokkaa" -välilehteen – järjestelmään, joka on jo käytössä mobiilisivustolla. (T102398, T58337) Initially, the "Muokkaa" tab will open whichever editing environment you used last time. Your last editing choice will be stored as a cookie for logged-out users and as an account preference for logged-in editors. Logged-in editors will be able to set a default editor in the Muokkaus tab of Special:Preferences in the drop-down menu about "Muokkaustila:".
Visuaalinen muokkain tulee tarjolle kaikille muokkaajille seuraavissa Wikipedioissa alkuvuodesta 2016 (kielet englanniksi): Amharic, Buginese, Min Dong, Cree, Manx, Hakka, Armenian, Georgian, Pontic, Serbo-Croatian, Tigrinya, Mingrelian, Zhuang, ja Min Nan. (T116523) Please post your comments and the language(s) that you tested at the feedback thread on mediawiki.org. The developers would like to know how well it works. Please tell them what kind of computer, web browser, and keyboard you are using.
Vuonna 2016 visuaalisen muokkaimen palautesivut ohjataan monessa Wikipediassa mediawiki.orgiin (ei suomenkielisessä Wikipediassa). (T92661)
Testausmahdollisuudet[muokkaa wikitekstiä]
- Kokeile uutta yhden välilehden muokkausjärjestelmää sivustolla test2.wikipedia.org. Voit muokata sisäänkirjautumattomana nähdäksesi kuinka se toimii kirjautumattomilla käyttäjillä, tai voit luoda erillisen tunnuksen asettaaksesi asetuksia tunnuksellesi. Jaa ajatuksesi tästä järjestelmästä mediawiki.orgin palautesivulla tai rekisteröidy muodolliseen käyttäjätutkimukseen (kirjoita "single edit tab" kysymykseen koskien aiheita, joista olet kiinnostunut). Uutta järjestelmää ei ole viimeistelty, ja palautteesi voi vaikuttaa lopputulokseen. Tiimi haluaa erityisesti ajatuksiasi koskien valintoja sivulla Special:Preferences. Nykyiset vaihtoehdot sivulla Special:Preferences ovat:
- Muista viimeksi käyttämäni muokkain,
- Käytä aina visuaalista muokkainta, jos mahdollista,
- Käytä aina wikitekstin muokkaustilaa, ja
- Näytä minulle molemmat muokkausvälilehdet. (Tämä on nykyinen tila käyttäjille, jotka käyttävät jo visuaalista muokkainta. Mitkään näistä valinnoista eivät näy sinulle, jos et ole ottanut visuaalista muokkainta käyttöösi asetuksissasi tässä wikissä.)
- Osaatko kirjoittaa ja lukea koreaa tai japania? Kieli-insinööri David Chan tarvitsee henkilöä, joka tietää mitä työkaluja henkilöt käyttävät kirjoittaakseen joillakin kielillä. Jos puhut japania tai koreaa, voit auttaa häntä testaamaan tukea näille kielille. Katso ohjeet sivulta What to test, jos voit auttaa, ja ilmoita siitä Phabricatorissa (korea - japani) tai Wikipediassa (korea - japani).
Jos et lue tätä suosikkikielelläsi, auta meitä kääntämisessä! Liity kääntäjien postituslistalle tai ota yhteyttä suoraan, jotta voimme ilmoittaa sinulle, kun seuraava teksti on valmis käännettäväksi. Kiitos!

Wikimedia-yhteisön uusimmat tech-uutiset. Toivomme sinun jakavan tietoa näistä muutoksista yhteisössäsi. Uutiset on käännetty toisille kielille.
Tuoreet muutokset
- Wikimedia no longer uses visitor statistics from comScore. [26]
- You can make interactive graphs with the Graph extension. There is now a tutorial for how to do this. [27]
Ongelmat
- Some pages do not turn in up in categories where they should be. This is because link tables are sometimes not populated. [28]
Muutokset tällä viikolla
- The Nuke extension will work with Flow. This will make it easier to handle spam in Flow. [29]
- New file uploads will now be patrollable. [30]
- Internet Explorer 8 will no longer have JavaScript support. You will still be able to browse and edit Wikipedia if you use Internet Explorer 8, but will not be able to use some features. This can be solved by upgrading to a newer version or switching to a different browser. [31][32]
Tapaamiset
- Voit osallistua seuraavaan viikoittaiseen tapaamiseen VisualEditor-tiimin kanssa. Tapaamisten aikana voit kertoa kehittäjille tärkeistä ongelmista. Tapaaminen on 12. tammikuuta klo 20.00 (UTC). Katso miten voit liittyä.
Tulevia muutoksia
- URLs in the recent changes IRC feed will no longer be rewritten to unencrypted HTTP. This could be a breaking change for bots dependent on the IRC feed. [33]
- The edit tabs for the wikitext editor and the visual editor will be combined to one single edit tab. You will be able to choose which one you prefer. If you are not logged in, your choice will be saved as a cookie in your browser. You can test the single edit tab. [34][35]
- There is a beta feature that adds links to the subject on other Wikimedia projects. This works much like the links to for example Wikipedia articles in other languages. It will go out of beta testing and be enabled for everyone in January. Wikis that don't want this can decide to have it disabled. [36][37]
- The difference between "alerts" and "messages" notifications is unclear to some. The developers want feedback at the Phabricator task or on MediaWiki.org so they can make this better. You can give feedback in your language if you can't write in English.
