  • Special report: What actually happened during the Wikimedia security incident?
    A horrifying exploit took place, which could have had catastrophic and far-reaching consequences if used maliciously; instead, it seems to have happened by accident and was used for childish vandalism. How did this happen, and what did the script actually do?

How Are You?

Hello my best friend @Dieter Lloyd Wexler. How are you today? and how about your graveyard shift? It so tired right? Yeah, I just want to tell you to stay enthusiastic and surrender to God in any condition because God is definitely able to help you in facing every problem. If you want a friend to talk to, you can talk to me, don't hesitate. Sorry if I distrub your time and and don't be angry with me. I just want to give you support.

Thank you for being such a good friend to me. We have missed a lot of things starting from us collaborating to going through so many things and problem with sockpuppetry accounts, etc. Once again, I want to say thank you ~MotoFan9373 MotoFan9373 (talk) 13:56, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

@MotoFan9373 Hey dude, I'm doing well, just busy as always. Thanks for your kind words. Also thank you for your contributions here in Wiki! Keep it up as always. I feel a bit relieved now having this much help in MotoGP articles from you and the other new editors. Years back especially in pandemic, I was basically the only one editing consistently lol. Dieter Lloyd Wexler 19:59, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
Ok, nice, you're welcome my best friend @Dieter Lloyd Wexler. MotoFan9373 (talk) 03:04, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
Hello @Dieter Lloyd Wexler, Can you see have IP Address/temporary account edit in 2026 Thailand motorcycle Grand Prix. According to you, Is what he typed correct? MotoFan9373 (talk) 12:17, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
So what is your answer my best friend @Dieter Lloyd Wexler? Have you already revised it? MotoFan9373 (talk) 03:49, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
@MotoFan9373 Already fixed it. Dieter Lloyd Wexler 03:50, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
Ok thanks for your response @Dieter Lloyd Wexler. MotoFan9373 (talk) 03:50, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
Btw @Dieter Lloyd Wexler, What is your favourite rider in MotoGP? Marquez brothers? or anything else? MotoFan9373 (talk) 04:09, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
@MotoFan9373 Sorry dude but we can't talk about those stuff here in Wikipedia per WP:NOTFORUM. Dieter Lloyd Wexler 04:12, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
This is just sharing story bro @Dieter Lloyd Wexler, just have some fun and not arguing with you, mate. Besides, I also respect to the all rider and no hate each other. You can trust me. MotoFan9373 (talk) 17:15, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
@MotoFan9373 Wikipedia really isn't the place for these kinds of conversations, but since you really want to know, I am a big fan of Valentino Rossi. Dieter Lloyd Wexler 17:33, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
Ok, nice bro, I was a big fan of Valentino Rossi too before his retirement. After that, I support "Marquez brothers" now. For me, these 2 guys are the "GOAT" and the big icon of MotoGP. I don't differentiate between these two guys and consider them equal, because they are both equally great @Dieter Lloyd Wexler. But what confuses me is why people always argue, can't respect these two guys, and always hate and boo each other (e.g., Rossi Fan vs. Marquez Fan). Why not just reconcile and admit that they're both great? What's so hard about that?
I really hate it when a rider crashes, people instead boo and insult them. Is that a good thing? Of course not, right? When a rider crashes, we should show sympathy, like saying, "Oh, that’s unfortunate for the rider." But instead, they do the opposite. And almost every day, I see endless hate in the social media comments.
What are your opinions and suggestions for them @Dieter Lloyd Wexler?
Let me emphasize this once again, there's no debate here and I'm just sharing a story. Thanks, mate. MotoFan9373 (talk) 02:23, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
@MotoFan9373 I refuse to take part in these conversations as it violates WP:NOTFORUM and WP:OWNTALK, specifically all discussion should ultimately be directed solely toward the improvement of the encyclopedia. If I wanted to partake in these types of discussions, I would have used Discord or Reddit instead. Dieter Lloyd Wexler 18:34, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
Owh, so we can't sharing story in wikipedia @Dieter Lloyd Wexler? And I want to ask too, why the total fastest lap Angel Nieto is 63 in his Career Statistics but in "List of Grand Prix motorcycle racing rider records" the total is 81? So, which one is right? MotoFan9373 (talk) 07:37, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
@MotoFan9373 Nah user talk pages is for discussions and converations in building an online encyclopedia, not for sharing opinions and getting to know each other. Nieto's fastest laps should be 81 per . I already fixed Nieto's article. Dieter Lloyd Wexler 11:43, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Ok, I want to ask you why in the list of 50cc world champion the fastest lap is just - from 1974 until 1989 @Dieter Lloyd Wexler MotoFan9373 (talk) 12:23, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
@MotoFan9373 Not sure but lemme check into it. Dieter Lloyd Wexler 12:50, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Ok, please check it @Dieter Lloyd Wexler. MotoFan9373 (talk) 12:52, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Hello mate @Dieter Lloyd Wexler, after I thought about it, maybe I know the answer, why the fastest lap is just - from 1974 until 1989? Because at that time it seems that FIM had not recorded the fastest lap, so that's why just -. (That is just my opinion, If you think I'm wrong, you can correct me.)
Oh yeah, btw, I already help you to fix the year of "Brazilian Grand Prix" at "List of Grand Prix motorcycle races" because I see you type "2025" at the "By host nation" section so I help you to fix that and I already help you too edit the "List of Grand Prix motorcycle racing rider records", "List of 500cc/MotoGP rider records", and "List of MotoGP/500cc constructor records". I'm just trying to lighten your load, mate 😉. If you have any difficulties and need my help, you can chat with me and don't hesitate, mate @Dieter Lloyd Wexler, just chill. I want to say thank you too, because you always so kind with me.
Regards ~MotoFan9373 MotoFan9373 (talk) 15:46, 24 March 2026 (UTC)
@MotoFan9373 About the fastest laps, they've always been recorded nonstop since 1949 so I'm not really sure why the article creator didn't put fastest laps there. I checked my results book but sadly it doesn't have race results for 50cc, 80cc, and 350cc. It only has season results for those classes. You should probably ask NapHit about this, but they're not active anymore in GP racing.
Thanks for your help. I've been busy always with work but I did try to take some time off to edit after the races, but as you saw, I missed some edits and made mistakes lol I do need a break. Thanks man. Dieter Lloyd Wexler 20:36, 24 March 2026 (UTC)
You are welcome, mate @Dieter Lloyd Wexler, and maybe we not need to think about "Why in the list of 50cc world champion the fastest lap is just - from 1974 until 1989" this problem again, because is already past right? So just focus on what we will face in the future.

Tech News: 2026-12

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Updates for editors

  • The Improved Syntax Highlighting beta feature, also known as CodeMirror 6, has been used for wikitext syntax highlighting since November 2024. It will be promoted out of beta by May 2026 in order to bring improvements and new features to all editors who use the standard syntax highlighter. If you have any questions or concerns about promoting the feature out of beta, please share.
  • Some changes to local user groups are performed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and logged there only. Now, interwiki rights changes will be logged both on Meta-Wiki and the wiki of the target user to make it easier to access a full record of user's rights changes on a local wiki. Past log entries for such changes will be backfilled in the coming weeks.
  • On wikis using Flagged Revisions, the number of pending changes shown on Special:PendingChanges previously counted pages which were no longer pending review, because they have been removed from the system without being reviewed, e.g. due to being deleted, moved to a different namespace, or due to wiki configuration changes. The count will be correct now. On some wikis the number shown will be much smaller than before. There should be no change to the list of pages itself.
  • Wikifunctions composition language has been rewritten, resulting in a new version of the language. This change aims to increase service stability by reducing the orchestrator's memory consumption. This rewrite also enables substantial latency reduction, code simplification, and better abstractions, which will open the door to later feature additions. Read more about the changes.
  • Users can now sort search results alphabetically by page title. The update gives an additional option to finding pages more easily and quickly. Previously, results could be sorted by Edit date, Creation date, or Relevance. To use the new option, open 'Advanced Search' on the search results page and select 'Alphabetically' under 'Sorting Order'.
  • Recurrent item View all 28 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, the bug that prevented UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons from importing files from Flickr has now been fixed.

Updates for technical contributors

  • A new special page, Special:LintTemplateErrors, has been created to list transcluded pages that are flagged as containing lint errors to help users discover them easily. The list is sorted by the number of transclusions with errors. For example: Special:LintTemplateErrors/night-mode-unaware-background-color.
  • Users of the Improved Syntax Highlighting beta feature have been using CodeMirror instead of CodeEditor for syntax highlighting when editing JavaScript, CSS, JSON, Vue and Lua content pages, for some time now. Along with promoting CodeMirror 6 out of beta, the plan is to replace CodeEditor as the standard editor for these content models by May 2026. Feedback or concerns are welcome.
  • The CodeMirror JavaScript modules will soon be upgraded to CodeMirror 6. Leading up to the upgrade, loading the ext.CodeMirror or ext.CodeMirror.lib modules from gadgets and user scripts was deprecated in July 2025. The use of the ext.CodeMirror.switch hook was also deprecated in March 2025. Contributors can now make their scripts or gadgets compatible with CodeMirror 6. See the migration guide for more information.
  • The MediaWiki Interfaces team is expanding coverage of REST API module definitions to include extension APIs. REST API modules are groups of related endpoints that can be independently managed and versioned. Modules now exist for GrowthExperiments and Wikifunctions APIs. As we migrate extension APIs to this structure, documentation will move out of the main MediaWiki OpenAPI spec and REST Sandbox view, and will instead be accessible via module-specific options in the dropdown on the REST Sandbox (i.e., Special:RestSandbox, available on all wiki projects).
  • The Scribunto extension provides different pieces of information about the wiki where the module is being used via the mw.site library. Starting last week, the library also provides a way of accessing the wiki ID that can be used to facilitate cross-wiki module maintenance.
  • Recurrent item Detailed code updates later this week: MediaWiki

Tech News: 2026-13

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Weekly highlight

  • Wikimedia site users can now log in without a password using passkeys. This is a secure method supported by fingerprint, facial recognition, or PIN. With this change, all users who opt for passwordless login will find it easier, faster, and more secure to log in to their accounts using any device. The new passkey login option currently appears as an autofill suggestion in the username field. An additional "Log in with passkey" button will soon be available for users who have already registered a passkey. This update will improve security and user experience. The screen recording demonstrates the passwordless login process step by step.
  • All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at 15:00 UTC. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, which happen twice a year. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies.

Updates for editors

  • Wikimedia site users can now export their notifications older than 5 years using a new Toolforge tool. This will ensure that users retain their important notifications and avoid them being lost based on the planned change to delete notifications older than 5 years, as previously announced.
  • Wikipedia editors in Indonesian, Thai, Turkish, and Simple English now have access to Special:PersonalDashboard. This is an early version of an experience that introduces newer editors to patrolling workflows, making it easier for them to move from making edits to participating in more advanced moderation work on their project.
  • The Special:Block now has two minor interface changes. Administrators can now easily perform indefinite blocks through a dedicated radio button in the expiry section. Also, choosing an indefinite expiry provides a different set of common reasons to select from, which can be changed at: MediaWiki:Ipbreason-indef-dropdown.
  • Mobile editors at several wikis can now see an improved logged-out edit warning, thanks to the recent updates from the Growth team. These changes released last week are part of ongoing efforts and tests to enhance account creation experience on mobile and then increase participation.
  • Recurrent item View all 36 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, the bug that prevented mobile web users from seeing the block information when affected by multiple blocks has been fixed. They can now see messages of all the blocks currently affecting them when they access Wikipedia.

Updates for technical contributors

  • Images built using Toolforge will soon get the upgraded buildpacks version, bringing support for newer language versions and other upstream improvements and fixes. If you use Toolforge Build Service, review the recent cloud-announce email and update your build configuration as necessary to ensure your tools are compatible.
  • The API Portal documentation wiki will shut down in June 2026. API keys created on the API Portal will continue to work normally. api.wikimedia.org endpoints will be deprecated gradually starting in July 2026. Documentation on the API Portal is moving to mediawiki.org. Learn more on the project page.
