edit

By Thunderhead, July 19, 2007

  • A new magic word has been added to all Wikimedia wikis: allows for changes in a page's displayed title.
  • It's now possible to style <gallery> and <math> tags using the same style= attribute as is used on HTML tags like <div> and <span>.
  • Previews of the licence tags available on Special:Upload are now shown when selected, providing extra legal information about the tags.
  • A new feature, Special:DeletedContributions has been added to Wikimedia wikis, which allows sysops to see deleted contributions of any user.
