Editing news 2020 #3

 
On 16 March 2020, the 50 millionth edit was made using the visual editor on desktop.

Seven years ago this week, the Editing team made the visual editor available by default to all logged-in editors using the desktop site at the English Wikipedia. Here's what happened since its introduction:

  • The 50 millionth edit using the visual editor on desktop was made this year. More than 10 million edits have been made here at the English Wikipedia.
  • More than 2 million new articles have been created in the visual editor. More than 600,000 of these new articles were created during 2019.
  • Almost 5 million edits on the mobile site have been made with the visual editor. Most of these edits have been made since the Editing team started improving the mobile visual editor in 2018.
  • The proportion of all edits made using the visual editor has been increasing every year.
  • Editors have made more than 7 million edits in the 2017 wikitext editor, including starting 600,000 new articles in it. The 2017 wikitext editor is VisualEditor's built-in wikitext mode. You can enable it in your preferences.
  • On 17 November 2019, the first edit from outer space was made in the mobile visual editor.
  • In 2019, 35% of the edits by newcomers, and half of their first edits, were made using the visual editor. This percentage has been increasing every year since the tool became available.

Exporting Wikipedia Adventure to a local wiki

I am currently trying to add Wikipedia Adventure into Malayalam Wikipedia. I would like to know which pages needs to be exported to mlwiki, so as to get the message boxes that appear in pages like the ones containing WP:TWA/1/Start?tour=twa1 in the URL. Adithyak1997 (talk) 18:57, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

Adithyak1997, I think what you're looking for is Wikipedia:The_Wikipedia_Adventure/Index. Also, check out how other communities have translated it here: https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Adventure . Good luck! Ocaasi t | c 20:48, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

Teahouse award script

Hello! Just wanted to ask if this still works — Yours, Berrely • TalkContribs 21:30, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

Hey Berrely, I actually have no idea. I haven't thought about it in at least 7 years and I frankly don't even remember what it does! Try it? I have a hunch it's functionality was built into the main interface...Ocaasi t | c 21:32, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

Well as long as it doesn't mess up my UI I'll be happy to :D. Just thought I'd might ask you you before I did. If it works or not thanks for creating it anyway 😁. — Yours, Berrely • TalkContribs 21:40, 27 July 2020 (UTC)
