Hi everyone,

We've released our latest update to the Wikipedia Android app
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.wikipedia&hl=en>, now
available on the Google Play store. (For devices without Google Play
services, you may download
<https://releases.wikimedia.org/mobile/android/wikipedia/stable/wikipedia-2.7.234-r-2018-05-30.apk>
the app directly)

This is a maintenance update that addresses a few minor issues and bugs:

* Respect the new {{shortdescription}} template in articles (no longer
offer to edit the Wikidata description if a local article description is
present).
* Fix possible latency issues due to incorrect cookie handling.
* Fix possible errors when synchronizing reading lists (when adding
articles from external deep links).


Cheers,
