Two big advantages of the normal EditWatchlist over raw are being able to see which items have been redirected or deleted, without having to check them manually.

The raw watchlist loads fine for me, although I haven't tried saving it (it would be a lot of work to rebuild it manually if the saving went wrong!).

Much better, thanks!

Still the case.

but there is not any comment on the talk page of my task 3, if there are any improvements or any suggestions please let me know, it will help me in the future to improve my work.

Hi all, sorry for the delay in replying. Everyone now has replies on the talk page (basically, everyone's work was accepted as completed), and we'll take this work into account while assessing and deciding on the internship. Thanks everyone for your work during the contribution period!

@301295_kTH Task 2 looks good, you can count it as completed on Outreachy, sorry for the delay. I'll reply about the task 3 issue on the task 3 ticket.

@301295_kTH please see the 'Application and timeline' section of T300207 that describes how to do the timeline.

It's up to you, you can add them all, or just the one you think is most appropriate. You should put at least one URL per task though.

Hi all, sorry, something unexpected came up. I’ll check and comment on your tasks as soon as I can, but please go ahead and submit applications now, you don’t need to wait for the tasks to be checked first.

Hi @301295_kTH Nearly there! I've left feedback on the talk page, at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User_talk:Varsha_ahirwar_from_India/Outreachy_2 . You can also find the article you should use for task 3 there.

@Prince418 Your proposal still seems substantially the same as Lennard's, just with some rewording and rearranging, which still isn't OK. I don't think you've tried the microtasks either? I'm not sure of the GSoC rules for submitting this, and the deadline is today.

Hi, @Bisola7 you have a reply in your email inbox, @Akandoria you have a reply on the talk page.

@LennardHofmann Thanks! Those changes look good. I can now see it in the Google dashboard. With "I might have to fix urgent bugs reported after the deployment of a key part, while I'm already working on the next feature" - yes, this is the norm when developing community-facing code!

Hi @LennardHofmann, this is looking good! I think you also have to submit this via Google's system (please make sure you do so!).

Hello Everyone, I'm Pinalee an Outreachy applicant from India. I want to contribute in this project. Looking forward to work with Wikimedia foundation. Thank you.

@PangolinMexico @Jiehui_Ma You have replies on the talk pages!

I've marked this as 'Closed to new applicants' on Outreachy as there are now several people that have completed all three tasks. The project is still open for contributions, though, and will remain so until the contribution period ends. And if anyone new still wants to have a go at the tasks, that's also fine.

Hi @Mike_Peel, here's my completed task two attempt. I await your feedback, thanks!

Note: I'm unable to create a new wiki page for my Outreachy task 2. I get an error message saying my IP has been blocked on all wikis due to Open Proxy. Is there a way to resolve this?

Hi! My name is Yedil Serzhan and I am studying for a Master's degree in Computer Science. I had experience with Lua while I was developing games that require fast execution. I would really like to work on this project. Do you suggest that should I start working on microtasks and reading through the codebase from now?

Hi @Mike_Peel , I am very very late to the party. But I have started getting familiar with WikiData and creating my page. My question is probably redundant and dumb, but I am curious about what's your expectation from this microtask. For our created pages, would you prefer it be structured and represented in a conventional Wikipedia article style? Or would you rather prefer a more descriptive page (something like a jupyter notebook) that would represent the creator's thought process and explorations? Thanks.

@PangolinMexico You have a reply on the talk page.

Great - please have a go at the three starter tasks, and let me know when you're ready for me to look at your work!

Thank you for updating and helping me confirm this! Based on these details, I think my codes and functions has followed the requirements.

I would be grateful if you could then check my submission and comment on my coding styles. If there are coding lines too vague for you to understand, plase feel free to tell me. I am still working on to improve my current contributions.

Thank you for your time!

Hi @Mike_Peel, I am Ajay from India. I have been working in web development where I worked on both frontend and backend programming languages. I like learning and working on different languages and technologies. I am very interested in working on this project.

Just to comment that the example came from https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:LongPages - you can see the first page of these is either COVID or journal article items. It maybe a case of changing the approach of an editor or two on-wiki to avoid these situations arising, more than it requires software changes, though.

Just discovered this wasn't possible when trying to link Commons to Wikitech via Wikidata... (https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Clusters and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikimedia_servers should interwiki to each other) Any chance of it being implemented please?

Hi,

Can I work on this task? I am an Outreachy Round 24 applicant and seems like Wikimedia aligns with my interest and experience.

Posted at https://github.com/fuddl/wd/issues/71 - closing this task. Thanks for the pointers for tracking the issue down.

Aah - if I disable https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Tools/Wikidata_for_Web then this issue goes away. So I guess I should report this to the plugin developer instead, I guess at https://github.com/fuddl/wd/issues since I'm not sure they are on Phabricator.

It happens in safe mode in Firefox, but does not happen in Firefox Private mode. It does not happen at all in Safari or Chrome. I'm using Extension:WikiEditor - but this is the [ edit | edit source ] links themselves, before you get to the editor.

Hi all! Our mentoring org application is under review. We are being asked by Google to provide additional information on projects - expected size of the project: 175 or 350 hours and difficulty rating: easy, medium, or hard. Based on my analysis, I have added two data points to each project on the GSoC 2022 page on MediaWiki.org. If you disagree with it, feel free to make additional changes.

@srishakatux Please could you include @Pigsonthewing as a mentor for the proposal on Outreachy (he's now registered on Outreachy under that username), and also give him view permissions for the Outreachy tickets?

@srishakatux Thanks! Let's make a fresh start with the project description - follow-up is at T302098.

@srishakatux For Outreachy round 24, would T300207 work? It would be jointly mentored by me and @Pigsonthewing and builds on the work we've been doing for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cite_Q .
