All sites have been upgraded to MediaWiki 1.10, and most of the databases are now fully unicode/UTF-8 (the rest will hopefully follow soon). In the interest of internationalization, "OrthodoxWiki.org" will still work for this site, but it's official name and internal URL will be "en.OrthodoxWiki.org"—it will remain, for the moment, the master site for user logins—if you have an account at EN, you will be able to use it on any sister site (except for BG at the moment).
Finally, I'd like to announce the '''[[ocommonsocom:Main Page|OrthodoxWiki Commons]]''', a central repository for image storage across all of the various localizations and sister sites (again, with the exception of BG, since that is being hosted in Bulgaria). Along with this, we've introduced the ability to upload multiple files at once, and (for sysops) the ability to upload from a web address. We hope that this will help streamline things in the future, as well as provide as space (like Wikimedia Commons) for images which may not be included in an article, but which may be one day or have some independent value.
Look for more changes and improvements soon. Your feedback is always welcome. — [[User:FrJohn|<b>FrJohn</b>]] ([http://www.orthodoxwiki.org/User_talk:FrJohn&action=edit§ion=new talk]) 15:07, May 23, 2007 (PDT)
