Community Wishlist Survey 2022 is coming. Help us!
[編集]The Community Wishlist Survey 2022 starts in less than two weeks (Monday 10 January 2022, 18:00 UTC). We, the team organizing the Survey, need your help.
Only you can make the difference
How many people will hear and read about the Survey in their language? How many will decide to participate? Will there be enough of you to vote for a change you would like to see? It all depends on you, volunteers.
Why are we asking?
- We have improved the documentation. It's easier to use and less textual. This will be for nothing if the new documentation will only be in English.
- Thousands of volunteers haven't participated in the Survey yet. We'd like to improve that, too. Three years ago, 1387 people participated. Last year, there were 1773 of them. We hope that in the upcoming edition, there will be even more. You are better than us in contacting Wikimedians outside of wikis. We have prepared some images to share. More to come.
What is the Community Wishlist Survey?

It's an annual survey that allows contributors to the Wikimedia projects to propose and vote for tools and platform improvements. Long years of experience in editing or technical skills are not required.
Thanks, and be safe and successful in 2022! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 2021年12月29日 (水) 03:07 (UTC)
Feedback on Vector (2022) conversation
[編集]
Hello! As a member of WikiProject Usability, I wanted to draw your attention to a conversation currently underway on WP:VPR (see the beginning of the discussion) around adopting Vector 2022 as the new default skin.
The Web team at the Wikimedia Foundation has been working on Vector 2022 for the past three years, collaborating with the English Wikipedia community as well as other wikis to ensure that the skin performs better qualitatively and quantitatively for readers and communities than the previous Vector skin. The goal of the new skin is to create a more welcoming and easier to use experience for readers and editors across the wiki. For more details, see our new FAQ.
For the past couple of months, we have collected thoughts from the English Wikipedia community on what changes need to be made to the skin prior to it being considered ready for deployment. Our next step would be to start an RfC to assess whether the community considers Vedtor 2022 ready.
Prior to the beginning of the RfC, we wanted to draw your attention to the current conversation and encourage your feedback on the skin.
Thank you, OVasileva (WMF), SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 2022年8月25日 (木) 12:25 (UTC)
The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks?
[編集]
Hello. I'm writing on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Web team. In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.
We have been working on it for the past three years. So far, it has been the default on more than 30 wikis, including sister projects, all accounting for more than 1 billion pageviews per month. On average 87% of active logged-in users of those wikis use Vector 2022.
It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy. Logged-in users can at any time switch to any other skins. No changes are expected for users of these skins.

About the skin
[編集][Why is a change necessary] The current default skin meets the needs of the readers and editors as these were 13 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using Wikimedia projects. The old Vector doesn't meet their needs.
[Objective] The objective for the new skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It draws inspiration from previous requests, the Community Wishlist Surveys, and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. We reduced PHP code in Wikimedia deployed skins by 75%. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs.
[Changes and test results] The skin introduces a series of changes that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin.
- The sticky header makes it easier to find tools that editors use often. It decreases scrolling to the top of the page by 16%.
- The new table of contents makes it easier to navigate to different sections. Readers and editors jumped to different sections of the page 50% more than with the old table of contents. It also looks a bit different on talk pages.
- The new search bar is easier to find and makes it easier to find the correct search result from the list. This increased the amount of searches started by 30% on the wikis we tested on.
- The skin does not negatively affect pageviews, edit rates, or account creation. There is evidence of increases in pageviews and account creation across partner communities.
[Try it out] Try out the new skin by going to the appearance tab in your preferences and selecting Vector 2022 from the list of skins.
How can editors change and customize this skin?
[編集]It's possible to configure and personalize our changes. We support volunteers who create new gadgets and user scripts. Check out our repository for a list of currently available customizations, or add your own.
Our plan
[編集]If no large concerns are raised, we plan on deploying in the week of October 3, 2022. If your community would like to request more time to discuss the changes, hit the button and write to us. We can adjust the calendar.
Also, if you'd like ask our team anything, if you have questions, concerns, or additional thoughts, please ping me here or write on the talk page of the project. We will also gladly answer! See our FAQ. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 2022年9月22日 (木) 04:05 (UTC)
Update on Vector 2022
[編集]
Hey everyone. I'm sorry for not communicating in your language. I'm writing on behalf of the Web team working on the new skin, Vector 2022.
We wanted to apologize for the delays in the deployment of Vector 2022. We know many of you are waiting for this eagerly. We have been delaying the deployment because we have been working on the logos. It has taken us more time than originally expected. Once the logos are ready, we will let you know the exact date of deployment. We are planning for either the next (more likely) or the following week. If your wiki doesn't currently have a localized logo, we encourage you to reach out to us and we can help make one.
We invite you to get involved in the project. Contact us if you have any questions or need any help, particularly with the compatibility of gadgets and user scripts. SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 2022年10月19日 (水) 23:14 (UTC)
Desktop improvements. A new change is coming!
[編集]
(こんにちは! 邦訳にご協力ください)
Next week (the week of February 6), the Wikimedia Foundation Web team will move some links from the side menu ("sidebar") to the other side of the screen.
This will make it easier to intuitively use all the links and tools within our interface. The table of contents will also appear a bit higher up the screen because the sidebar will be shorter. The latter change would mostly be interesting for editors. This is because readers use the sidebar much more rarely.
Why we are changing this
The interface does not distinguish between the links and tools that are relevant to the website and the links and tools that are relevant to a single page. Main page, random page, recent changes, are in the first group. What links here, related changes, cite this page, belong to the second one. This mix is confusing to new readers. Also new editors are not familiar with what each link does. Mixing these groups makes it less likely for people to explore these tools naturally.
This change also addresses the concern for the location of the table of contents. Previously, some editors using an earlier version of Vector 2022 told us that because the table of contents appeared below the sidebar, it was placed too much down below the page. After this change, the sidebar will be shorter and thus will shift the table of contents further up in the page. Also, this change will reduce the white space on the page by using more of the space for the display of tools.
You can learn more about the page tools feature and the Desktop Improvements project on MediaWiki.org.
Gadgets' compatibility
Technically skilled editors may need to update some gadgets and user scripts. Some of these might become redundant or obsolete. We provide support for users who would like to maintain the compatibility. Please explore this section of our documentation for more information on gadget compatibility.

- Create a task on Phabricator and add
Desktop Improvements (Vector 2022)tag or write to us if you notice a bug. - Translate the documentation on MediaWiki.org.

The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks?
[編集]Read this in your language • 邦訳にご協力ください • Please tell other users about these changes
Hello. I'm writing on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Web team. In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.

If you prefer keeping the current skin select "Vector legacy (2010)" on the appearance tab of the global preferences and save the change. We encourage you to give the new skin a try, though.
Since I last came to you with this question, many things have changed. The skin is now the default on most Wikipedias, and all logos are done! We have also made some tweaks in the skin itself. Below is the text I've sent to you once, but I'm sending it again, just slightly edited, for those who haven't seen it.
If you know what this is about, jump straight to the section "Our plan":
It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy as a local (but not global) preference. Logged-in users can at any time switch to any other skin. No changes are expected for these skins.

About the skin
[編集]
[Why is a change necessary] When the current default skin was created, it reflected the needs of the readers and editors as these were 14 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using the Internet and Wikimedia projects in different ways. The old Vector does not meet their needs.
[Objective] The objective for the Vector 2022 skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It introduces a series of changes that aim to improve problems new and existing readers and editors were having with the old skin. It draws inspiration from previous user requests, the Community Wishlist Surveys, and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. The PHP code in the other available skins has been reduced by 75%. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs.

[Changes in a nutshell] The skin introduces changes that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin.
- The limited width and pin-able menus allow to adjust the interface to the screen size, and focus on editing or reading. Logged-in and logged-out users may use a toggle button to keep the full width, though.
- The sticky header makes it easier to find tools that editors use often. It decreases scrolling to the top of the page by 16%.
- The new table of contents makes it easier to navigate to different sections. Readers and editors jump to different sections of the page 50% more than with the old table of contents. It also looks a bit different on talk pages.
- The new search bar is easier to find and makes it easier to find the correct search result from the list. This increased the amount of searches started by 30% on the tested wikis.

臨時アカウント:コードの更新方法
[編集]臨時アカウントは本年中に導入するため、信頼安全製品チームでは、コミュニティが管理しておられるツール類やガジェット、ボットやユーザスクリプト、不正利用検出用の AbuseFilters その他のコードが今後とも円滑に挙動するよう、このご連絡をお送りしています。
臨時アカウントとは?
臨時アカウントは、新タイプのアカウントで未登録の編集者を対象とします。非ログイン利用者が編集しようとすると臨時アカウントを割り当て、そのアカウントにログインする手順です。非ログイン利用者のワークフローに重点を置いたツールでは、正しい機能のため更新が必要な場合があります。非ログイン編集者の IP アドレスを使用するツールでは臨時アカウントを採用するように機能を書き直さないと、作動しなくなります。先行導入ウィキの一部では、既に臨時アカウントが稼働しており、本年中に全ウィキ類で導入を完成する予定です。
以下の補佐をお願いできませんか。
- ご自分が作成したコード、または頻繁に使うコード(ツールやガジェット、ボットまたはユーザスクリプトで Toolforge または各種ウィキで稼働中)は、既に臨時アカウントを有効にしてあるウィキ類で正しく稼働するかどうか、テストをお願いします。臨時アカウント導入済みは、こちらの コンテンツ用ウィキの一覧、また、こちらの ベータ・クラスタおよびテストウィキの一覧をご参照ください。
- 影響を受ける可能性があるツールを予見されたら、開発者向けドキュメント・ガイドに基づいて更新をお勧めします。また、タグ #temporary-accounts を付けて Phabricator タスクを提出していただけないでしょうか。これにより、今回の変更がコミュニティ所有のコードにどんな影響を及ぼすか、監視できるようになります。
- 影響を受けたと気づいたツール類は、ぜひこのページに追加してください。今後、確実に期待通りの挙動をしているかどうか、それらを監視していく所存です。
- 皆さんのウィキで使用中の、不正行為検出の Abuse Filters をご確認ください。user_name に対して IP を使うフィルタは今後、使えなくなります。これらのフィルタは更新して、必ず user_unnamed_ip 変数 を代入するようにしてください。技術者のコメント:「主な使用例は、ip_in_range(s) など範囲をチェックしている場合です。ユーザ名をマップするものは、すぐ後に臨時アカウント名をマップする流れだから、だいたいは問題がないはずです。」AbuseFilter に何か質問がある人は、Phabricator チケット T369611 にコメントを追加してください。
- 何か問題を見つけた、あるいはコメントや質問をしたい人は、当プロジェクトのトークページに投稿するか、ファブリケータ(Phabricator)のタスクを提出してタグを
#temporary-accountsと指定してください。担当チームとのサポートの相談やフィードバック送付には、専用の英語版ディスコードのスレッドに参加しましょう(先にサーバに参加しておくこと)。
テストに参加してレポートを返すと、今回の更新を経ても重要なツール類が正常に作動すると確信が持てます。ご支援に感謝します。

臨時アカウント:コード類への影響について
[編集]このメッセージは信頼安全製品チームの代理として送信しています。臨時アカウント展開の一環として、コミュニティが管理するコード類として、ツールやガジェット、ボットやユーザ・スクリプト、あるいは不正利用フィルタ(AbuseFilter)その他が引き続き、円滑に動作するよう保証したいと願っています。お手数ながら、影響が及ぶコードの分析をぜひお願いします。対処方法と支援を受ける方法は、全文版の通知をご参照ください。

Temporary accounts
[編集]{{ivmbox|1=Hello, {{subst:ROOTPAGENAME}}. This message is being sent to remind you of significant upcoming changes regarding logged-out editing.
Starting 4 November 2025, logged-out editors will no longer have their IP address publicly displayed. Instead, they will have a temporary account (TA) associated with their edits. Users with some extended rights like administrators and CheckUsers, as well as users with the temporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right will still be able to reveal temporary users' IP addresses and all contributions made by temporary accounts from a specific IP address or range.
How do temporary accounts work?
- When a logged-out user completes an edit or a logged action for the first time, a cookie will be set in this user's browser and a temporary account tied with this cookie will be automatically created for them. This account's name will follow the pattern:
~2025-12345-67(a tilde, year of creation, a number split into units of 5). - All subsequent actions by the temporary account user will be attributed to this username. The cookie will expire 90 days after its creation. As long as it exists, all edits made from this device will be attributed to this temporary account. It will be the same account even if the IP address changes, unless the user clears their cookies or uses a different device or web browser.
- A record of the IP address used at the time of each edit will be stored for 90 days after the edit. Users with the temporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right will be able to see the underlying IP addresses.
- As a measure against vandalism, there are two limitations on the creation of temporary accounts:
- There has to be a minimum of 10 minutes between subsequent temporary account creations from the same IP (or /64 range in case of IPv6).
- There can be a maximum of 6 temporary accounts created from an IP (or /64 range) within a period of 24 hours.
Temporary account IP viewer user right
- Administrators may grant the temporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right to non-administrators who meet the criteria for granting. Importantly, an editor must make an explicit request for the permission (e.g. at WP:PERM/TAIV)—administrators are not permitted to assign the right without a request.
- Administrators will automatically be able to see temporary account IP information once they have accepted the Access to Temporary Account IP Addresses Policy via Special:Preferences or via the onboarding dialog which comes up after temporary accounts are deployed.
Impact for administrators
- It will be possible to block many abusers by just blocking their temporary accounts. A blocked person won't be able to create new temporary accounts quickly if the admin selects the autoblock option.
- It will still be possible to block an IP address or IP range.
- Temporary accounts will not be retroactively applied to contributions made before the deployment. On Special:Contributions, you will be able to see existing IP user contributions, but not new contributions made by temporary accounts on that IP address. Instead, you should use Special:IPContributions for this (see a video about IPContributions in a gallery below).
Rules about IP information disclosure
- Publicizing an IP address gained through TAIV access is generally not allowed (e.g. テンプレート:!tq or テンプレート:!tq).
- Publicly linking a TA to another TA is allowed if "reasonably believed to be necessary". (e.g. テンプレート:Tq, but not テンプレート:!tq)
- See Wikipedia:Temporary account IP viewer § What can and can't be said for more detailed guidelines.
Useful tools for patrollers
- It is possible to view if a user has opted-in to view temporary account IPs via the User Info card, available in テンプレート:Preferences
- This feature also makes it possible for anyone to see the approximate count of temporary accounts active on the same IP address range.
- Special:IPContributions allows viewing all edits and temporary accounts connected to a specific IP address or IP range.
- Similarly, Special:GlobalContributions supports global search for a given temporary account's activity.
- The auto-reveal feature (see video below) allows users with the right permissions to automatically reveal all IP addresses for a limited time window.
