* '''Development'''

** Wikibase REST API:

*** We worked on the ability to create Items via POST /entities/items ([[phab:T342990]])

*** We worked on making it possible to modify the data of a Property via PATCH /entities/properties/{property_id} ([[phab:T347394]])

** EntitySchemas: We are getting back to making architecture improvements to enable the new datatype to link to EntitySchemas in statements.

** IP masking: We wrapped up the work on adapting Wikibase for the upcoming IP masking changes.

** Query Service: We added the ability to stop a query in the UI in order to not have to wait for a broken query to finish or run into a time-out. You can find the stop button below the run button in the query UI now.
