Hi , my global watchlist seems to get some issues. I have added all projects I want to track. But when a edit goes through, on my talk page for example, it is not shown in the global watchlist. On mobile it also says it gets API issue. How can I fix this API issue? I tried using mobil data as well, there was no difference.

It now seems that when something happens on the English Wikipedia in my Watchlist, it gets labeled as "sv.wikipedia.org" (Swedish) and the article gets auto translated to Swedish, but when I press it takes me to enWiki.

I think it would be better if you filed an issue on phabricator.

Howdy! I'm uncertain how
page popups/previews
work. In entries like
ku'i
, I want that when one hovers over the label
discursive
, it displays the page preview/popup of the definition. However, only the page's title is displayed. This label is located in
Appendix:Lojban glossary
. Note that this works fine with any label linked to
Appendix:Glossary
, such as
nonstandard, rare
in
malpost
. When asked, I received
no input
from the Wiktionary community. Any ideas?

In the page
List of Wikipedias/sortable
there is "abstract" Wikipedia. What language is this?

I login to Wikipedia Library and access Oxford Music Online, but am no longer able to access content at that site.
