This is a summary of recent technology and site configuration changes that affect the English Wikipedia. Note that not all changes described here are necessarily live as of press time; the English Wikipedia is currently running version 1.44.0-wmf.4 (a8dd895), and changes to the software with a version number higher than that will not yet be active. Configuration changes and changes to interface messages, however, become active immediately.

• Rollback was broken for a while last week due to incorrect code (not enough data was being sent by the server to validate that the rollback was permitted); this has now been fixed. (r38326, bug 14997)
• The checkbox to not automatically fix redirects when moving a page now works (previously it incorrectly did nothing). (r38342, bug 14987)
• An update to the code broke the Simple and Modern skins recently; the skins are now working again (bug 14954http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14954, several revisions involved in the fix)
• Links in edit summaries to sections in diffs are now shown in the correct colour if the user viewing them has a stub threshold set. (r38505, bug 15023)

• "Show preview" now previews redirects as redirects, rather than previewing their wikitext. (r38409, bug 2333)
• Logs, contributions and page histories all now allow paging by date and time as well as by pages. (r38404, bug 14377)
• Special:Search now lists the search term used in the HTML <title> of the page in question. (r38440, bug 11035)

• Two Wikimedia servers ended up out of sync with the rest of the Wikimedia servers earlier this week, causing various corruption (mostly to page histories and to diffs, although some articles ended up with the text of an entirely different article and such instances will need to be fixed by hand). Corrupted page histories are being sorted out automatically by developers; if you come across an invalid diff, try purging it by adding &action=purge to the end of its URL.

• Internationalisation has been continuing as normal; help is always appreciated! See mw:Localisation statistics for how complete the translations of languages you know are, and post any updates to bugzilla or use Betawiki.
