Enable In the News for Serbian Wikipedia
Open, LowPublic

Description

The "In the News" template is Шаблон:Вести, and the format is as follows:

* [[10. фебруар]] — [[Европска свемирска агенција]] у сарадњи са [[НАСА]]-ом лансирала -{[[Solar Orbiter]]}- <small>(на слици)</small> који би у наредних 7 година требало детаљније да проучава [[хелиосфера|хелиосферу]] [[Сунце|Сунца]]. 
* [[9. фебруар]] — Јужнокорејски филм ''[[Паразит (филм)|Паразит]]'' добио је [[Оскар]]а за најбољи филм, а појединачне награде додељене су [[Рене Зелвегер]] и [[Хоакин Финикс|Хоакину Финиксу]].

i.e. a bullet, followed by a wikilinked date, an em-dash, and then the corresponding news piece for that day.

Note: <small>(на слици)</small> should probably be stripped, as it's equvivalent to (pictured) on the English Wikipedia.

Looking at the current project tags (Wikifeeds, Wikipedia-Android-App tracking), this task appears to be primarily about defining a stable, parseable structure for “In the News” items rather than changing editorial presentation on-wiki.

On srwiki, {{Шаблон:Вести}} follows a consistent pattern (bullet → linked date → em-dash → short news text). Optional markup such as <small>(на слици)</small> is purely editorial (equivalent to “(pictured)” on enwiki) and does not carry semantic meaning for feeds.

For feed consumers (including mobile apps), it seems reasonable to treat the above structure as canonical and ignore or strip such parenthetical editorial notes.

Clarification question to help move this forward:
is the intended outcome here

  • documentation of the expected structure for Wikifeeds consumers, or
  • normalization of template output to simplify downstream parsing?

Clarifying this would likely allow the task to be reassigned or resolved appropriately, especially given the deprecated ownership tag.
