Article update needed
[edit]I guess the information regarding Checkstyle-IDEA in this article is a bit outdated. I am not able to find the configuration file at the specified location. Please update the article if it's wrong or correct me if I'm missing something :) Kaartic [talk] 16:44, 19 November 2016 (UTC)
- o/ I always run
./gradlew checkstylefrom the command line. I think @MHolloway (WMF): may have some experience with the IDE plugin. Niedzielski (talk) 17:59, 21 November 2016 (UTC) - Thanks for the pointer, Kaartic! The file was moved in this commit but the wiki still needed updating. Should be good now. MHolloway (WMF) (talk) 17:36, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
- Whoops! :] Niedzielski (talk) 21:00, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
- Is the part about Working with Vagrant and the Content Service also outdated? Or where can I update the developer settings? Muwnd (talk) 09:26, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
- o/ Developer settings are enabled by default in the "Dev" build flavor. Developer settings can be enabled in other flavors by tapping seven times on the Wikipedia circular icon under app settings -> about the Wikipedia app. Developer settings are located in the top right corner of the app settings screen Niedzielski (talk) 16:35, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
EventLogging with Android app
[edit]How can I configure the Android app such that all event logs are redirected to a custom host (mediaWikiBaseUri)? Muwnd (talk) 12:28, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
- I just found that the event logging API endpoint is statically defined here: https://github.com/wikimedia/apps-android-wikipedia/blob/3ab1bf61873351b8d07c82bbb3e5a27590078514/app/src/main/java/org/wikipedia/analytics/EventLoggingEvent.java#L25
- Won't it be better to add this as field to the developer settings? Muwnd (talk) 06:49, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
- Yep, I've opened T167314 to track this. Thanks! Niedzielski (talk) 16:28, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
Image fullscreen view can be improved
[edit]The light background along with light colored font makes it difficult to read image description.

Copyright License information?
[edit]I see it says on top that the project is open source. What exact license or copyright information is there? I've not been good at all at finding this information so some guidance would be most welcome at what links such information is available at. Thank you! ~~~~ This is the only information regarding copyright and license I could find and it doesn't say what license is used and I'd also like to see credits somewhere to the people/usernames involved, so far it only says this "The Wikipedia Android app is completely open source and welcomes contributions from all.

Alpha releases
[edit]There are two links for the alpha releases, both of which are broken. What’s the reliable way to get a build of the main branch’s latest state without setting up Android Studio? Tacsipacsi (talk) 15:52, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
How can I change the site the app uses?
