Board Thread:Technical Updates/@comment-24006128-20201016144211/@comment-9605025-20201017045841

First, I would like to apologize for disappointing you all. There was about 1 hour 49 minutes between the last post in the previous thread and when it was closed. That should have been more than enough time for me to sneak in one more post. I promise that I will put more effort into sniping the honor of the last comment moving forward. However there are multiple factors involved and I cannot guarantee that it will always happen.

Now to air my grievance. MisterWoodhouse, you couldn't have waited another 2 page creations to make your post? I understand this list of updates is exciting but I think it would have been so much better if the page ID was 2020202 instead of what it currently is.

All joking aside, that is a very nice list of fixes. Every bit of improvement is definitely appreciated. However, I do have some questions about remaining issues.

importArticles

Are there plans to support interwiki JS imports again? I know imports from the Fandom Developers Wiki work but it seems that UCP wikis can't import JS from any other wiki; even other UCP wikis. The import script just prints some message about not being able to find the requested page.

Localized Login

I am guessing this has nothing to do with UCP but what about non-English logins being shown for English users? It doesn't happen too often but from time to time it will show me the login in some other language. A few months back, I got it in Spanish and earlier today I got it in Chinese (I think that's what it was). The login sessions before and after had no such issue and I don't recall visiting any Chinese sites in the time in-between.

 * So, would it be possible to make the avatar of anons in message wall posts link to their non-existent user page instead of Message_Wall:Null? I know it seems like a pointless detail but at least then you can tell what their IP address is.
 * 1) Since anons can now use blog comments and message walls in addition to article comments, will Special:UserProfileActivity be implemented for their social activity? I know it can be seen using Special:SocialActivity but I assume that page keeps logs for only a certain amount of time like Special:RecentChanges does. Or perhaps that assumption is wrong?
 * 2) Is there any update on Special:UserProfileActivity on converted wikis? On all of the converted wikis I have tried it on, it just loads indefinitely and never actually shows anything.
