[19:05:28] Newsletter 151: New API for calling Wikifunctions and celebrating 1000 functions - https://www.wikifunctions.org/wiki/Wikifunctions:Status_updates/2024-04-11 [19:05:51] We are also looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer for Wikifunctions and Abstract Wikipedia: https://boards.greenhouse.io/wikimedia/jobs/5850672 [19:30:38] “Changes to the external API on the other hand will follow MediaWiki’s usual policies (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Stable_interface_policy).” this link confuses me, because it points at the stable interface policy for PHP code, which is irrelevant for API changes [19:30:49] “This policy does _not_ apply to the following: … Web APIs such as api.php or rest.php.” [19:33:12] (apparently [[mw:Template:Deprecation policies]] links to a separate policy for the Action API, but I’ll be honest, I’ve never seen that before. but at a glance it seems to match the established practice as far as I’ve seen it reasonably well)
