We are testing the edit patrol feature for Indonesian Wikipedia patrollers. Edit patrol empowers editors who possess sysops and rollback rights to patrol a stream of recent edits. The feature can be accessed by users with extended rights through the edits tab in the bottom toolbar.
Please be sure to share your feedback about the feature!
We have some exciting changes for our donors in Italy and the Netherlands:
* In-app Donation Flows: As requested, you will no longer be taken out of the app when donating. We hope this makes it easier to go back to reading your article!
* More User Control: If we launch a banner you can choose to view it later or indicate if you've donated.
