仍在Windows XP上使用Internet Explorer 8的编辑者和读者将从10月17日起无法使用维基百科。Windows XP上的Internet Explorer 8无法安全连接wiki。当我们允许他们访问时，这意味着我们对其他所有人的安全保障将降低。如果您在Windows XP上使用Internet Explorer 8，您可以改用Firefox 52 ESR。维基媒体wiki上只有将近0.1%的访问流量来自Windows XP上的Internet Explorer 8用户。 [15]
Filters for Watchlists are still on Beta. Please try them and give feedback before we release it for all users!
Shortcuts to filter Namespaces and Tags are now more visible. [33]
Discovery of the search bar has been improved. [34]
If the Recent Changes page or the Watchlist fails to load or is time-outed, a message is now displayed. [35][36]
The bookmark icon for creating a "Saved filter" is now grayed when it is not possible to save. Before it was not visible. Bookmarking is unavailable when, for example, the current filter set is already saved. [37]

Automatic edit summaries will be filtered as tags. [40]
List items (suggested items and in-progress/published translations) layout restyled to prevent overflows on small screen sizes.
Search results for new translation dialog are now embedded, instead of being displayed in floating menu. Search results remain displayed when tabbed out and can be closed using ESC key.
Missing pages are no longer shown when there is no match for search query. Message informing that there are no results is displayed instead.
Embedded search results enabled to provide users with more translation opportunities. Articles user recently edited (in currently selected source language wiki) are surfaced when there is no input in search bar, with additional info if article is missing in user's currently selected target language.
Long suggestion descriptions are limited to three lines, and the rest is truncated, which is indicated by ellipsis.
Chart data representing user translation statistics in now showing all the months since user's first published translation. Months that went without translation are now displayed in chart as well.
A loading indicator is shown while suggestions are loading.

Some work is ongoing to store Structured Discussions contents from HTML to wikitext. That change will allow some specific templates and magic words to work properly on Structured Discussions. [42]
Some tests are conducted in order to prepare the rewriting of Structured Discussions' interface. That rewriting will have no visible impact on users but it will ease future changes.
The filters are now deployed as a default feature on all wikis on RecentChanges and RecentChangesLinked pages.
The filters are still available as a Beta feature on all wikis on Watchlists. Please try them!
LiveUpdates have been deployed as a default feature for all wikis.
On wikis using Extension:Translate, translated messages can now be filtered. System messages can be filtered as well, on all wikis. [60]
"查看$1之后的新更改" link is now more prominent, to invite users to use that native feature to update the list of results. [61]
Pagination and time period selectors are now combined and located on the right on left-to-right wikis. [62]
When a user wanted to click outside of the filter menu to close it, it was possible to click on "revert" link by accident. It is not possible anymore. [63]
It is now possible to filter the following events using the Tags menu: Making a page a redirect, Changing redirect target, Changing an existing redirect into a non-redirect, Blanking of the page, Removing more than 90% of a page content, Rolling back an edit. [64]
Some design improvements have been done to Related Changes page to integrate the new filters. [65]
"Save current filter settings" menu and legend overlapped the results. This is now fixed. [66]
Some small design improvements have been done. [67]
Now Content Translation prevents source and target language to be set to same language. [68]
The dialog for selecting article to translate is standardized. It introduces a new component that is used for the selected page on both the "New translation" dialog and the "Suggested pages" list. [69]
More space is given to the language filter, to increase responsiveness and show more language names without truncation. [70]
While searching for a new page to translate, duplicates are not shown anymore for user search input. [71]

Further enhancement are made for list (Suggestions/In-progress/Published) items on mobile screens. Long titles no longer overflow or overlap with other interface elements. [109]
Various changes to the "New translation" dialog and the selected page for translation have been made: [110]
Longer titles of selected pages are displayed in smaller. Some space has been added around to increase readability.
Language codes are not truncated by ellipsis anymore. Only full, autonym language names are subject to truncation.
Minimal screen sizes and selected suggestion dialog have been revisited. They are more consistent in responding to screen size changes.
Discard button is no longer shown on small screen sizes.
Language filters no longer render wrong or non-existent language codes. [111]
The "New translation" dialog now shows a loading indicator and doesn't display an error when you change the source language after an unsuccessful research. [112]
Structured discussions now uses the 2017 wikitext editor instead of its old custom one. This works with your preference for wikitext or visual editor. [113][114]
The documentation has been updated and needs translations updates.
The Wikinews wikis will switch to use the Remex parsing library. This is to replace Tidy. It will happen on 27 February. Other wikis will be recommended to switch soon when they have fixed the errors that must be fixed. Tidy will be removed in the middle of 2018. [152][153]
Collaboration and Language are now going their way separately. Updates about Content Translation are not included in this newsletter anymore. Please refer to the Language report.
The wording when you send a thanks message has changed. Instead of 是 or 否 it says 感谢 and 取消. It is also now easier to understand that all thanks are public. [162]
A notification is now sent to account owner on multiple unsuccessful login attempts. [163]
Problems
Between week 7 and 20 February, when you thanked someone for an edit, the thank went to the latest unthanked edit to that page. It didn't matter which edit you tried to give thanks for. This has been fixed. [164]
Long page titles on Special:Notifications were not truncated. This is now fixed. [165]
You can now press CTRL + ENTER to post a new message. [166]
It wasn't possible to create a description of a Structured discussions board. This has been fixed. [167]
Problems
On wikis using the Beta feature, it is not possible to enable or disable Structured discussion from the Beta page. However, admins can create and move the pages.
The Collaboration team has announced the start of a new project: In-Context Help and Onboarding. The idea is to improve retention of new wiki editors by giving them short tutorials and other training experiences related to, and triggered by, their current activities on the wikis (that’s the “in context” part). The project follows from the conclusions of the New Editor Experiences research. The work is in its very early stages, but we’d like to hear from people with ideas on the subject—particularly if you have experience supporting or training new contributors.
It was not possible to opt-in and opt-out Structured discussions on wikis using it as a Beta feature. It is now fixed. [193]
Future changes
The visual editor and 2017 wikitext editor interface is going to change for consistency. The toolbar, dialogs and menus will appear slightly bigger; some icons will look different. Content or functionality will not change. That change will apply to Structured Discussions as well. [194]
恭喜您完成第十五次動員令！
