Problemos
- Some pages, edits and users disappeared for a short while after the server switch. Missing content and users was fixed within a day. Some preferences and other things might take a few more days to fix. [1]
- Wikis are updated with new and updated translations from translatewiki.net again. This will happen once a week. The developers are working on fixing the problem so we can have translation updates more often again. [2]
Pakeitimai šią savaitę
- When you create an abuse filter that prevents edits you can now write a specific error message for it. Before this all abuse filters that prevented edits had the same error message. [3]
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 16 Spalis. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 17 Spalis. It will be on all wikis from 18 Spalis (calendar).
Susitikimai
- There will be no more meetings with the Editing team. This is because not enough Wikimedians were interested. To tell developers which bugs you think are the most important you can use Phabricator as normal. [4]

You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 17 Spalis at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.
