Recent changes
- Wikiversities now have better access to Wikidata. They can use data from any page on Wikidata on any page on Wikiversity. This happened on May 3. [1]
- You can use Wikipedia GapFinder to find missing articles between languages. [2]
- Users are invited to try Cross-wiki Notifications on all wikis. This is the last test session before the release by default, scheduled for May 12th at 23:00 UTC. [3][4]
- You can use keyboard shortcuts to open the visual editor (meta+V) or the wikitext editor (meta+E) (on certain wikis, even if you have chosen a favorite editor). [5]
- Uploading files bigger than 100 megabytes on Wikimedia Commons required to opt-in in your preferences. This is not necessary anymore. [6]
- The UploadsLink extension is now available on Wikimedia Commons. [7]
- Deleting a translation unit page didn't remove the corresponding content from the translation page. This is now solved. [8]

Problems

Future changes
- Using self-closing tags like
<div/>

to mean<div></div>

and<span>
instead. This is normal in HTML5. [17]
