Your feedback wanted: Remove (Language link added:) and similar edits from Special:RecentChanges
[แก้](Apologies for posting in English. You can help by translating it)
Hello, I’m Danny from Wikimedia Deutschland’s Wikidata For Wikimedia Projects team.
We have been investigating and examining how Wikidata’s use in the Special:RecentChanges and Special:Watchlist pages can be made to be more useful, or less ‘noisy’ (fewer edits that have little value to the reader).
We are currently exploring to make a change in the volume and the type of Wikidata edits that appear in these pages, and we need your feedback to help us ensure this is a positive change for the Wikis and won’t disrupt your workflows.
Language links are also known as sitelinks or interlanguage links and describe when a Wikidata item is connected to a Wiki, adding it to the language dropdown tool for other connected Wikis.

The request for feedback is whether you support the removal of these language link edits from the Recent Changes and Watchlist feed, or would you oppose such a change and if so, why? Please share you thoughts on the dedicated metawiki Talk page.
Further information about this change: m:Wikidata_For_Wikimedia_Projects/Hide_Language_Link_edits
Thank you for any participation or feedback you give, -- User:Danny Benjafield (WMDE) 22:26, 22 กันยายน 2569 (+07)

Wikidata Sitelink changes in Recent Changes and Watchlist
[แก้](Apologies for cross-posting in English, translating it will help spread the message)
Earlier last month, all Wikis were contacted for feedback on our proposal to remove language link changes, this change has already been deployed to Wikisource, Wikibooks, Wikivoyage, Wikiquote, Wikiversity and Wiktionary.
The same change is now being rolled out globally to all Wikipedias on October 13, 07:00 UTC. Editors will no longer see notifications after this time on their Recent Changes and Watchlist when a link to another language version of a page is added, removed, or changed in its Wikidata item (it does not affect language link notifications to the home wiki). There will then be a two-week monitoring period to observe if a reduction of high-volume but low-value notifications takes place, or if higher-value changes become easier to identify. Editors who rely on these notifications should be aware of the change and can share feedback or concerns on the Wikidata For Wikimedia Projects talk page.
Wikidata's own Recent Changes page is not affected as it serves as the repository for these changes.
Please reach out if you have any questions, or if your wiki would like to opt-out, thank you! -- Danny Benjafield (WMDE) (talk) sent via MediaWiki message delivery (คุย) 16:29, 9 ตุลาคม 2569 (+07)
