New features

- If your wiki is testing the new search tool ("CirrusSearch"), you can now test it by adding "New search" in your Beta features preferences. [2]

- You can now use a basic tool to add special characters to your text. You can add more characters (useful in your language) by editing the MediaWiki interface on translatewiki.net.
- The tool to add and edit mathematical text is now called "formula". [4]
Problems
- There was a problem with the "Lav en bog" tool (Collection); books could only be exported to PDF format. The change has been undone. [5]

Hej Asger,
Vedr. teksten om Lyoness, så er jeg lidt i tvivl om, hvorfor den ikke er godkendt. Det er en kendt sag, at Lyoness har været omtalt i operation X og jeg mener at der mangler en side omkring dette på den danske Wikipedia.
Der er desuden også tilsvarende sider på andre sprog - bl.a. den engelske, som jeg har taget udgangspunkt i: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyoness (Skrev Bengaard (diskussion • bidrag) 9. jan 2014, 20:02. Husk at signere dine indlæg.)
- Hejsa Bengaard. Tak for din besked.
- Virksomheden er muligvis notabel nok. Nu ved jeg ikke, om du har noget med virksomheden at gøre, men artiklen bærer præg af at være reklamerende i f.eks. afsnittet om medlemsfordele. Det er reklamerende og hører ikke rigtig til i et leksikon (encyklopædi) at fortælle ved hvert køb foretaget hos en loyalitetspartner vil op til 2% af indkøbsbeløbet blive tilskrevet ens personlige kontantkonto. Det er i en avisannonce sådan f.eks. vil høre hjemme. I øvrigt styrker indtrykket af uneutralitet også ved at rigtig mange kilder til firmaets egne hjemmesider.
- Prøv at læs hvad Wikipedia ikke er, og hvis du har noget med firmaet at gøre normen vedr. selvbiografier
- Mvh Asger (henvendelse) 9. jan 2014, 20:30 (CET)
77.75.167.246 forsætter med at vandalisere
[rediger kildetekst]77.75.167.246 har gentagne gange bidraget med hærværk, som efterfølgende er fjernet. Du satte en advarsel på hjemmesiden i august 2013, men nu fortsætter 77.75.167.246 sit hærværk. Måske var det en ide at blokere endegyldigt. venlig hilsen Rmir2 (diskussion) 12. jan 2014, 12:52 (CET)
- Det kan jeg se, men det er kun administratorer, som kan blokere. Jeg er kun patruljant. Desuden skal man være varsom med at bandlyse IP-adresser, da de kan skifte ejere. Mvh Asger (henvendelse) 12. jan 2014, 12:54 (CET)
