Convert complex templates to Lua to make them faster and more powerful
redigér(Please consider translating this message for the benefit of your fellow Wikimedians)
Greetings. As you might have seen on the Wikimedia tech blog or the tech ambassadors list, a new functionality called "Lua" is being enabled on all Wikimedia sites today. Lua is a scripting language that enables you to write faster and more powerful MediaWiki templates.
If you have questions about how to convert existing templates to Lua (or how to create new ones), we'll be holding two support sessions on IRC next week: one on Wednesday (for Oceania, Asia & America) and one on Friday (for Europe, Africa & America); see m:IRC office hours for the details. If you can't make it, you can also get help at mw:Talk:Lua scripting.
If you'd like to learn about this kind of events earlier in advance, consider becoming a Tech ambassador by subscribing to the mailing list. You will also be able to help your fellow Wikimedians have a voice in technical discussions and be notified of important decisions.
Guillaume Paumier, via the Global message delivery system. 13. mar 2013, 19:07 (UTC) (wrong page? You can fix it.)

Fjernelse af beskyttelse.
redigérHej. Jeg har set vi har mange sider som er beskyttet, og du kan finde den mer på Speciel:Beskyttede sider. Jeg har nu tænkt mig at oprette denne for om vi skal fjerne beskyttelsen på alle disse sider. Ingen IP'er kan komme med gode bidrag, eller rette de fejl som ikke er blevet set. Det er kun hvis alle laver en bruger hvilket alle personer ikke vil. De skal oprette en bruger bare for at rette en stavefejl, hvilket er lidt overkill hvis jeg skulle sige det. Så hvis I er enig vil jeg gerne fjerne beskyttelsen fra dem. Denne afstemmening (eller hvad det er) vil være åben til d. 09-06-2013. Hvis der ikke kommer nogle modagumenter vil handlingen blive gennemført. Så hvis du ikke syntes det er en god ide, eller bare vil kommenter, så bedes du gerne kommenter inden den 09-06-2013. Takker på forhånd. --Simeondahl (diskussion) 8. apr 2013, 22:39 (UTC)
- Jeg er enig i, at vi næppe får ret meget ud af holde de sider beskyttet. På den anden side kan det ofte være meget vanskeligt at rette selv simple stavefejl uden at kunne sammenligne med originalen, hvis man ikke tilfældigvis har styr på den ofte 100+ år gamle retskrivning, men der kan jo også andre slags ændringer og rettelser, så jeg har ikke noget imod, at beskyttelsen bliver hævet. Peter Alberti (diskussion) 22. apr 2013, 16:06 (UTC)
- Så jeg fjerner beskyttelsen fra alle sider ikke`sandt? --Simeondahl (diskussion) 28. apr 2013, 20:18 (UTC)

Hej!
Der er et nyt forslag til debat på Meta-Wiki, der handler om fjernelse af administrative rettigheder fra Wikipedianere, der har været inaktive gennem en lang periode. Overordnet set berører dette forslag fra Stewards (forvaltere) wikis uden en evalueringsproces for administratorer.
Vi er også ved at sammensætte en liste over projekter, der har en eksisterende procedure for fjernelse af inaktive administratorer, på anmodningens diskussionsside. Du er velkommen til at skrive dit projekt på listen, hvis projektet har en politik for inaktive administratorer.
Alle indlæg i debatten vil blive påskønnet. Debatten kan lukkes så tidligt som 21. maj 2013 (2013-05-21), men denne frist kan om nødvendigt forlænges.

Wikisource vision development: News April 2013
redigérI apologize if this message is not in your language. Please help translate it.
Dear Wikisourcerors, it has been almost a month since we have started with the Elaborate Wikisource strategic vision grant and we would like to share some news with you:
- The Wikisource vision development pages are open to discussion. Specially important: what do you think of creating together an international Wikisource User Group?
- In case some Wikisources want to use Wikidata to store book metadata and share it with Commons, we have started Wikidata:Books task force to decide which properties are needed. We think it's very important to discuss book metadata there, both for Wikisource and for all other projects.
- We also started some relevant Requests for Comments for Wikisource:
- Interproject links interface: how can we improve sister projects visibility?
- Musical score transcription project proposal: now that Extension:Score allows musical scores both in Wikipedia and in Wikisource (example 1, example 2), we need to define where we want music sheets to be hosted.
- We are following and promoting a Google Summer of Code project for Wikisource: Improve support for book structures. We are also helping to convert the UploadWizard customisation for books proposal into another GSoC.
- First contacts have been initiated with Open Library, Internet Archive and Open Knowledge Foundation for possible partnerships. Please check out this page.
And that's it for now! During the month of May, we (Aubrey and Micru) would like to organize at least one Skype or Google Hangout meeting for the users of each one of the 10 biggest wikisources plus another one or two for the other languages (depending on interest). We want to know your opinion on what Wikisource should become in the next years.
Thanks! --Micru and Aubrey 27. apr 2013, 00:56 (UTC)

[en] Change to wiki account system and account renaming
redigérSome accounts will soon be renamed due to a technical change that the developer team at Wikimedia are making. More details on Meta.
(Distributed via global message delivery 30. apr 2013, 03:28 (UTC). Wrong page? Correct it here.)
[en] Change to section edit links
redigérThe default position of the "edit" link in page section headers is going to change soon. The "edit" link will be positioned adjacent to the page header text rather than floating opposite it.
Section edit links will be to the immediate right of section titles, instead of on the far right. If you're an editor of one of the wikis which already implemented this change, nothing will substantially change for you; however, scripts and gadgets depending on the previous implementation of section edit links will have to be adjusted to continue working; however, nothing else should break even if they are not updated in time.
Detailed information and a timeline is available on meta.
Ideas to do this all the way to 2009 at least. It is often difficult to track which of several potential section edit links on the far right is associated with the correct section, and many readers and anonymous or new editors may even be failing to notice section edit links at all, since they read section titles, which are far away from the links.

redigér- Recent software changes
- (Not all changes will affect you.)
- The latest version of MediaWiki (version 1.22/wmf4) was added to non-Wikipedia wikis on May 13, and to the English Wikipedia (with a Wikidata software update) on May 20. It will be updated on all other Wikipedia sites on May 22. [1] [2]
- A software update will perhaps result in temporary issues with images. Please report any problems you notice. [3]
- MediaWiki recognizes links in twelve new schemes. Users can now link to SSH, XMPP and Bitcoin directly from wikicode. [4]
- VisualEditor was added to all content namespaces on mediawiki.org on May 20. [5]
- A new extension ("TemplateData") was added to all Wikipedia sites on May 20. It will allow a future version of VisualEditor to edit templates. [6]
- New sites: Greek Wikivoyage and Venetian Wiktionary joined the Wikimedia family last week; the total number of project wikis is now 794. [7] [8]
- The logo of 18 Wikipedias was changed to version 2.0 in a third group of updates. [9]
- The UploadWizard on Commons now shows links to the old upload form in 55 languages (bug 33513). [10]
- Future software changes
- The next version of MediaWiki (version 1.22/wmf5) will be added to Wikimedia sites starting on May 27. [11]
- An updated version of Notifications, with new features and fewer bugs, will be added to the English Wikipedia on May 23. [12]
- The final version of the "single user login" (which allows people to use the same username on different Wikimedia wikis) is moved to August 2013. The software will automatically rename some usernames. [13]
- A new discussion system for MediaWiki, called "Flow", is under development. Wikimedia designers need your help to inform other users, test the prototype and discuss the interface. [14].
- The Wikimedia Foundation is hiring people to act as links between software developers and users for VisualEditor. [15]

Pywikipedia is migrating to git
redigérHello, Sorry for English but It's very important for bot operators so I hope someone translates this. Pywikipedia is migrating to Git so after July 26, SVN checkouts won't be updated If you're using Pywikipedia you have to switch to git, otherwise you will use out-dated framework and your bot might not work properly. There is a manual for doing that and a blog post explaining about this change in non-technical language. If you have question feel free to ask in mw:Manual talk:Pywikipediabot/Gerrit, mailing list, or in the IRC channel. Best Amir (via Global message delivery). 23. jul 2013, 13:03 (UTC)
HTTPS for users with an account
redigérGreetings. Starting on August 21 (tomorrow), all users with an account will be using HTTPS to access Wikimedia sites. HTTPS brings better security and improves your privacy. More information is available at m:HTTPS.
If HTTPS causes problems for you, tell us on bugzilla, on IRC (in the #wikimedia-operations
channel) or on meta. If you can't use the other methods, you can also send an e-mail to https@wikimedia.org

First, I’d like to apologize for the English. If you can, please help to translate this for other members of your community.
The legal team at the Wikimedia Foundation would greatly appreciate your input on the best way to manage the "community logo" (pictured here) to best balance protection of the projects with community support. Accordingly, they have created a “request for consultation” on Meta where they set out briefly some of the issues to be considered and the options that they perceive. Your input would be invaluable in helping guide them in how best to serve our mission.

Greetings!
Notifications will inform users about new activity that affects them on this wiki in a unified way: for example, this new tool will let you know when you have new talk page messages, edit reverts, mentions or links -- and is designed to augment (rather than replace) the watchlist. The Wikimedia Foundation's editor engagement team developed this tool (code-named 'Echo') earlier this year, to help users contribute more productively to MediaWiki projects.
We're now getting ready to bring Notifications to almost all other Wikimedia sites, and are aiming for a 22 October deployment, as outlined in this release plan. It is important that notifications is translated for all of the languages we serve.
There are three major points of translation needed to be either done or checked:
- Echo on translatewiki for user interface - you must have an account on translatewiki to translate
- Thanks on translatewiki for user interface - you must have an account on translatewiki to translate
- Notifications help on mediawiki.org. This page can be hosted after translation on mediawiki.org or we can localize it to this Wikipedia. You do not have to have an account to translate on mediawiki, but single-user login will create it for you there if you follow the link.
Please let us know if you have any questions, suggestions or comments about this new tool. For more information, visit this project hub and this help page. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 4. okt 2013, 18:23 (UTC)

Speak up about the trademark registration of the Community logo.
redigérHi all,
Please join the consultation about the Community logo that represents Meta-Wiki: m:Community Logo/Request for consultation.
This community consultation was commenced on September 24. The following day, two individuals filed a legal opposition against the registration of the Community logo.
The question is whether the Wikimedia Foundation should seek a collective membership mark with respect to this logo or abandon its registration and protection of the trademark.
We want to make sure that everyone get a chance to speak up so that we can get clear direction from the community. We would therefore really appreciate the community's help in translating this announcement from English so that everyone is able to understand it.
Introducting Beta Features
redigér(Apologies for writing in English. Please translate if necessary)
We would like to let you know about Beta Features, a new program from the Wikimedia Foundation that lets you try out new features before they are released for everyone.
Think of it as a digital laboratory where community members can preview upcoming software and give feedback to help improve them. This special preference page lets designers and engineers experiment with new features on a broad scale, but in a way that's not disruptive.
Beta Features is now ready for testing on MediaWiki.org. It will also be released on Wikimedia Commons and MetaWiki this Thursday, 7 November. Based on test results, the plan is to release it on all wikis worldwide on 21 November, 2013.
Here are the first features you can test this week:
- Media Viewer — view images in large size or full screen
- VisualEditor Formulæ (for wikis with VisualEditor) — edit algebra or equations on your pages
- Typography Refresh — make text more readable (coming Thursday)
Would you like to try out Beta Features now? After you log in on MediaWiki.org, a small 'Beta' link will appear next to your 'Preferences'. Click on it to see features you can test, check the ones you want, then click 'Save'. Learn more on the Beta Features page.
After you've tested Beta Features, please let the developers know what you think on this discussion page -- or report any bugs here on Bugzilla. You're also welcome to join this IRC office hours chat on Friday, 8 November at 18:30 UTC.
Beta Features was developed by the Wikimedia Foundation's Design, Multimedia and VisualEditor teams. Along with other developers, they will be adding new features to this experimental program every few weeks. They are very grateful to all the community members who helped create this project — and look forward to many more productive collaborations in the future.
Enjoy, and don't forget to let developers know what you think! Keegan (WMF) (talk) 5. nov 2013, 19:43 (UTC)

Call for comments on draft trademark policy
redigérHi all,
The Wikimedia legal team invites you to participate in the development of the new Wikimedia trademark policy.
The current trademark policy was introduced in 2009 to protect the Wikimedia marks. We are now updating this policy to better balance permissive use of the marks with the legal requirements for preserving them for the community. The new draft trademark policy is ready for your review here, and we encourage you to discuss it here.
We would appreciate if someone would translate this message into your language so more members of your community can contribute to the conversation.

Wikidata is here!
redigérHey everyone :)
As previously announced we have just enabled interwiki links via Wikidata for Wikisource. This means from now on you no longer have to maintain the links in the Wikitext but can maintain them together with the links for Wikipedia, Commons and Wikivoyage on Wikidata. You will still be able to keep them locally though if you want to. Local interwiki links will overwrite the ones from Wikidata. You do not yet have access to the other data on Wikidata like the date of birth of an author. That will come in a future deployment. I will let you know when I have a date for it.
If you have any questions d:Wikidata:Wikisource is a good first step. It also has a list of people familiar with both Wikisource and Wikidata who are able to help you out. That is also a good place for any issues or bugs you encounter.
I'm really excited to welcome you all to Wikidata! I hope it will become a great help for Wikisource.

Request for comment on Commons: Should Wikimedia support MP4 video?
redigérI apologize for this message being only in English. Please translate it if needed to help your community.
The Wikimedia Foundation's multimedia team seeks community guidance on a proposal to support the MP4 video format. This digital video standard is used widely around the world to record, edit and watch videos on mobile phones, desktop computers and home video devices. It is also known as H.264/MPEG-4 or AVC.
Supporting the MP4 format would make it much easier for our users to view and contribute video on Wikipedia and Wikimedia projects -- and video files could be offered in dual formats on our sites, so we could continue to support current open formats (WebM and Ogg Theora).
However, MP4 is a patent-encumbered format, and using a proprietary format would be a departure from our current practice of only supporting open formats on our sites -- even though the licenses appear to have acceptable legal terms, with only a small fee required.
We would appreciate your guidance on whether or not to support MP4. Our Request for Comments presents views both in favor and against MP4 support, based on opinions we’ve heard in our discussions with community and team members.
Please join this RfC -- and share your advice.
All users are welcome to participate, whether you are active on Commons, Wikipedia, other Wikimedia project -- or any site that uses content from our free media repository.
You are also welcome to join tomorrow's Office hours chat on IRC, this Thursday, January 16, at 19:00 UTC, if you would like to discuss this project with our team and other community members.
We look forward to a constructive discussion with you, so we can make a more informed decision together on this important topic. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 16. jan 2014, 06:46 (UTC)
Access to data in Wikidata
redigérHey :)
(Sorry for writing in English. I hope someone can translate this for me where necessary.)
Not long ago we enabled language links via Wikidata for Wikisource. This seems to have gone rather smoothly. Thanks to everyone who helped! But as you know this was only the start. What is actually more interesting is access to the data in Wikidata like the date of birth of an author or the year a book was published. We have planned this for February 25th (unless any issues arise). You will then be able to use the data in your articles. I hope this will open up a lot of new opportunities for you.
If you have any questions d:Wikidata:Wikisource is a good place to find help.

Universal Language Selector will be enabled by default again on this wiki by 21 February 2014
redigérOn January 21 2014 the MediaWiki extension Universal Language Selector (ULS) was disabled on this wiki. A new preference was added for logged-in users to turn on ULS. This was done to prevent slow loading of pages due to ULS webfonts, a behaviour that had been observed by the Wikimedia Technical Operations team on some wikis.
We are now ready to enable ULS again. The temporary preference to enable ULS will be removed. A new checkbox has been added to the Language Panel to enable/disable font delivery. This will be unchecked by default for this wiki, but can be selected at any time by the users to enable webfonts. This is an interim solution while we improve the feature of webfonts delivery.
You can read the announcement and the development plan for more information. Apologies for writing this message only in English. Thank you. Runa

redigérHey folks,
We have just enabled data access to Wikidata for Wikisource (except old-wikisource). This means you can now access data like the date of birth of an author or the ISBN of a book. You can do this in two ways. The first one is a parser function. You can use it like {{#property:capital}} or {{#property:P36}}. The second one is Lua. The documentation for that is at mw:Extension:WikibaseClient/Lua
If you have any questions you will find help at d:Wikidata:Wikisource and its talk page.
I hope you'll use this to do some kick-ass things on Wikisource ;-)

Proposed optional changes to Terms of Use amendment
redigérChanges to the default site typography coming soon
redigérThis week, the typography on Wikimedia sites will be updated for all readers and editors who use the default "Vector" skin. This change will involve new serif fonts for some headings, small tweaks to body content fonts, text size, text color, and spacing between elements. The schedule is:
- April 1st: non-Wikipedia projects will see this change live
- April 3rd: Wikipedias will see this change live
This change is very similar to the "Typography Update" Beta Feature that has been available on Wikimedia projects since November 2013. After several rounds of testing and with feedback from the community, this Beta Feature will be disabled and successful aspects enabled in the default site appearance. Users who are logged in may still choose to use another skin, or alter their personal CSS, if they prefer a different appearance. Local common CSS styles will also apply as normal, for issues with local styles and scripts that impact all users.

Media Viewer is now live on this wiki
redigér
Greetings— and sorry for writing in English, please translate if it will help your community,
The Wikimedia Foundation's Multimedia team is happy to announce that Media Viewer was just released on this site today.
Media Viewer displays images in larger size when you click on their thumbnails, to provide a better viewing experience. Users can now view images faster and more clearly, without having to jump to separate pages — and its user interface is more intuitive, offering easy access to full-resolution images and information, with links to the file repository for editing. The tool has been tested extensively across all Wikimedia wikis over the past six months as a Beta Feature and has been released to the largest Wikipedias, all language Wikisources, and the English Wikivoyage already.
If you do not like this feature, you can easily turn it off by clicking on "Disable Media Viewer" at the bottom of the screen, pulling up the information panel (or in your your preferences) whether you have an account or not. Learn more in this Media Viewer Help page.
Please let us know if you have any questions or comments about Media Viewer. You are invited to share your feedback in this discussion on MediaWiki.org in any language, to help improve this feature. You are also welcome to take this quick survey in English, en français, o español.
We hope you enjoy Media Viewer. Many thanks to all the community members who helped make it possible. - Fabrice Florin (WMF) (talk) 19. jun 2014, 21:54 (UTC)

Letter petitioning WMF to reverse recent decisions
redigérThe Wikimedia Foundation recently created a new feature, "superprotect" status. The purpose is to prevent pages from being edited by elected administrators -- but permitting WMF staff to edit them. It has been put to use in only one case: to protect the deployment of the Media Viewer software on German Wikipedia, in defiance of a clear decision of that community to disable the feature by default, unless users decide to enable it.
If you oppose these actions, please add your name to this letter. If you know non-Wikimedians who support our vision for the free sharing of knowledge, and would like to add their names to the list, please ask them to sign an identical version of the letter on change.org.

Lægge filer op, Vejviser til oplægning af filer?
redigérHello! Sorry for writing in English. It was noted that on this wiki there is little community activity around uploads: less than 50 "Slet" actions in "Fil" last year.
I guess this wiki doesn't have the interest or energies to maintain complex templates and metadata, especially for EDP files. I propose to
- send users to commons:Special:UploadWizard from the sidebar and
- limit local "Upload fil" to the "Administratorer" group (for any emergency uploads),
so that no new work is needed on this wiki and all users can have a functioning, easy upload interface in their own language. All registered users can upload on Commons.
All this will be done around 2014-09-30.
- If you disagree with the proposal, just remove this wiki from the list.
- To make the UploadWizard even better, please tell your experience and ideas on commons:Commons:Upload Wizard feedback.
- In all cases, existing files will not be affected, but everyone is welcome to join m:File metadata cleanup drive. The goal is to give better credit to the authors who provided us their works.

Meta RfCs on two new global groups
redigérThere are currently requests for comment open on meta to create two new global groups. The first is a group for members of the OTRS permissions queue, which would grant them autopatrolled rights on all wikis except those who opt-out. That proposal can be found at m:Requests for comment/Creation of a global OTRS-permissions user group. The second is a group for Wikimedia Commons admins and OTRS agents to view deleted file pages through the 'viewdeletedfile' right on all wikis except those who opt-out. The second proposal can be found at m:Requests for comment/Global file deletion review.
We would like to hear what you think on both proposals. Both are in English; if you wanted to translate them into your native language that would also be appreciated.
It is possible for individual projects to opt-out, so that users in those groups do not have any additional rights on those projects. To do this please start a local discussion, and if there is consensus you can request to opt-out of either or both at m:Stewards' noticeboard.
Thanks and regards, Ajraddatz (talk) 26. okt 2014, 18:05 (UTC)
Alle filer foreslås slettet
redigérFiler uden licens MÅ ikke ligge på nogle WMF-projekter, og har ikke måttet det siden 2007/2008, jf. WMF:Resolution:Licensing_policy. Hvis du er rettighedshaveren, så kan du tilføje en gyldig licens.
Fair use er kun tilladt, hvis Wikisource har en w:en:WP:EDP. Og det har den danske Wikisource ikke.
Dvs. det er kun filer med en fri licens, der er tilladt. Hvis der fx er tale om noder/sange, så skal komponisten enten være død for mere end 70 år siden eller have givet en tilladelse til, at frigive værket under en fri licens.
Filer, der også ligger på Commons, bør også slettes, da de ligger bedre på Commons.
Ubrugte filer uden forventet brugbarhed andre steder foreslås også slettet. Men det er et skøn, så hvis der er tvivl vil filen formentlig bare blive kopieret til Commons.
Det kan godt tage lidt tid at komme igennem alle filerne og få tjekket dem. Det vil være en stor hjælp, hvis aktive brugere vil tjekke deres egne uploads. De bør have en beskrivelse, en licens, en kilde og en rettighedshaver. Hvis uploaderen har lavet filen selv, så kan man bare skrive "Eget arbejde" eller "Own work". Hvis man mener, at filen er overflødig kan man sætte skabelonen "Slet" på.
Alle er selvfølgelig også meget velkommen til at hjælpe med at tjekke andres uploads. Selve kopieringen til Commons kan jeg dog godt klare, hvis I ikke selv har mod på det. Det tager mig kun 5 sekunder pr. fil, så I behøver ikke bøvle med det. --MGA73 (diskussion) 27. okt 2014, 20:57 (UTC)
Det vil fx være en hjælp hvis der bliver tilføjet:
- Beskrivelse inkl. link, fx: Side fra bogen "Ved Juletid"
- Forfatter ink. link og årstal, fx: Forfatter Cornelia Levetzow - (1836 - 1921)
- Licens svarende til den, der kan accepteres på Commons, fx: {{PD-old-70}} eller {{PD-old-100}}
Hvis det er filer hvor der både er melodi og tekst bør der stå både hvem, der har skrevet musikken og hvem der har skrevet teksten.
Se evt. Brugerdiskussion:Erik_Damskier#Ang.C3.A5ende_licenser_p.C3.A5_Wikisource mht. de filer Erik har lagt op. --MGA73 (diskussion) 31. okt 2014, 19:48 (UTC)
- Du kan se alle filerne på Speciel:Filer. --MGA73 (diskussion) 3. nov 2014, 18:43 (UTC)
Bort set fra et par stykker er alle nu i Kategori:CC-BY-SA-3.0 og der er indsat en standardtekst, der er lige til at udfylde. Hvis nogen har lyst at tage et par stykker, så er det bare super :-D --MGA73 (diskussion) 11. nov 2014, 18:58 (UTC)
Global AbuseFilter
redigérAbuseFilter is a MediaWiki extension used to detect likely abusive behavior patterns, like pattern vandalism and spam. In 2013, Global AbuseFilters were enabled on a limited set of wikis including Meta-Wiki, MediaWiki.org, Wikispecies and (in early 2014) all the "small wikis". Recently, global abuse filters were enabled on "medium sized wikis" as well. These filters are currently managed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and have shown to be very effective in preventing mass spam attacks across Wikimedia projects. However, there is currently no policy on how the global AbuseFilters will be managed although there are proposals. There is an ongoing request for comment on policy governing the use of the global AbuseFilters. In the meantime, specific wikis can opt out of using the global AbuseFilter. These wikis can simply add a request to this list on Meta-Wiki. More details can be found on this page at Meta-Wiki. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on m:Talk:Global AbuseFilter.
Thanks,

Inspire Campaign: Improving diversity, improving content
redigérThis March, we’re organizing an Inspire Campaign to encourage and support new ideas for improving gender diversity on Wikimedia projects. Less than 20% of Wikimedia contributors are women, and many important topics are still missing in our content. We invite all Wikimedians to participate. If you have an idea that could help address this problem, please get involved today! The campaign runs until March 31.
All proposals are welcome - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Constructive, positive feedback on ideas is appreciated, and collaboration is encouraged - your skills and experience may help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign and help this project better represent the world’s knowledge!

Stewards confirmation rules
redigérHello, I made a proposal on Meta to change the rules for the steward confirmations. Currently consensus to remove is required for a steward to lose his status, however I think it's fairer to the community if every steward needed the consensus to keep.

This is a message from the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee. Translations are available.
Greetings,
I am pleased to announce that nominations are now being accepted for the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections. This year the Board and the FDC Staff are looking for a diverse set of candidates from regions and projects that are traditionally under-represented on the board and in the movement as well as candidates with experience in technology, product or finance. To this end they have published letters describing what they think is needed and, recognizing that those who know the community the best are the community themselves, the election committee is accepting nominations for community members you think should run and will reach out to those nominated to provide them with information about the job and the election process.
This year, elections are being held for the following roles:
Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long term sustainability of the Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. There are three positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the board elections page.
Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)
The Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) makes recommendations about how to allocate Wikimedia movement funds to eligible entities. There are five positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC elections page.
Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) Ombud
The FDC Ombud receives complaints and feedback about the FDC process, investigates complaints at the request of the Board of Trustees, and summarizes the investigations and feedback for the Board of Trustees on an annual basis. One position is being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC Ombudsperson elections page.
The candidacy submission phase lasts from 00:00 UTC April 20 to 23:59 UTC May 5 for the Board and from 00:00 UTCApril 20 to 23:59 UTC April 30 for the FDC and FDC Ombudsperson. This year, we are accepting both self-nominations and nominations of others. More information on this election and the nomination process can be found on the 2015 Wikimedia elections page on Meta-Wiki.
Please feel free to post a note about the election on your project's village pump. Any questions related to the election can be posted on the talk page on Meta, or sent to the election committee's mailing list, board-elections -at- wikimedia.org

Koge-Bog
redigérJag har arbetat mycket med mathistoria de senaste åren, både på Wikipedia, och nyligen på svenska Wikisource med att transrkibera tidigmoderna kokböcker. Jag har bland annat lagt upp Cajsa Wargs Hjelpreda I Hushållningen För Unga Fruentimber och flera andra historiska kokböcker.
Jag har tänkt att börja arbeta med transkribering av Koge-Bog från 1611 (upplaga från 1625). Om någon är intresserad av att hjälpa till, säg gärna till.
Hoppas att ingen har något emot att jag skriver på svenska här. Jag tror att ni förstår mig rätt bra ändå.

Wikidata: Access to data from arbitrary items is coming
redigér(Sorry for writing in English)
When using data from Wikidata on Wikipedia and other sister projects, there is currently a limitation in place that hinders some use cases: data can only be accessed from the corresponding item. So, for example, the Wikipedia article about Berlin can only get data from the Wikidata item about Berlin but not from the item about Germany. This had technical reasons. We are now removing this limitation. It is already done for French Wikisource and Dutch Wikipedia. Your project is one of the next ones:
- 18. May: Farsi Wikipedia, English Wikivoyage, Hebrew Wikipedia
- 1. June: Italian Wikipedia, all remaining Wikisource
We hope to have it rolled out nearly everywhere by the end of June 2015.
We invite you to play around with this new feature if you are one of the people who have been waiting for this for a long time. If you have technical issues/questions with this you can come to d:Wikidata:Contact the development team.
A note of caution: Please be careful with how many items you use for a single page. If it is too many pages, loading might get slow. We will have to see how the feature behaves in production to see where we need to tweak and how.
How to use it, once it is enabled:
- Parser function: {{#property:P36|from=Q183}} to get the capital from the item about Germany
- Lua: see mw:Extension:Wikibase Client/Lua

Pywikibot compat will no longer be supported - Please migrate to pywikibot core
redigérSorry for English, I hope someone translates this.
Pywikibot (then "Pywikipediabot") was started back in 2002. In 2007 a new branch (formerly known as "rewrite", now called "core") was started from scratch using the MediaWiki API. The developers of Pywikibot have decided to stop supporting the compat version of Pywikibot due to bad performance and architectural errors that make it hard to update, compared to core. If you are using pywikibot compat it is likely your code will break due to upcoming MediaWiki API changes (e.g. T101524). It is highly recommended you migrate to the core framework. There is a migration guide, and please contact us if you have any problem.
There is an upcoming MediaWiki API breaking change that compat will not be updated for. If your bot's name is in this list, your bot will most likely break.
Thank you,
The Pywikibot development team, 19:30, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

HTTPS
redigérHej allesammen.
Gennem de seneste år har Wikimediafonden arbejdet på uden videre at stilleHTTPS til rådighed for alle brugere, heri også medregnet ikke-registrerede brugere, så man opnår bedre uforstyrrethed og sikkerhed for både læsere og skribenter. Det har varet længe, da der har været forskellige ting at tage hensyn til. Vore servere har ikke været klar til at håndtere det. Wikimediafonden har måttet afveje mål, som ofte har været modstridende.
Forced HTTPS er netop blevet sat i kraft på alle Wikimediaprojekter. Enkelte af jer er muligvis allerede opmærksomme på det, da nogle af Wikipedias sprogversioner blev konverteret til HTTPS i sidste uge, og da de derved berørte fællesskaber fik besked.
Det er de færreste Wikimediaskribenter, der bliver berørt i det hele taget. Hvis man skriver som registreret bruger, har man sikkert allerede måttet logge ind via HTTPS. Vi holder øje med dette for at sikre, at alt kører, som det bør. Henvend jer endelig til os, hvis I har nogen som helst problemer efter denne ændring, eller kontakt mig, hvis I har andre spørgsmål.

Community Wishlist Survey
redigérHi everyone! Apologies for posting in English. Translations are very welcome.
The Community Tech team at the Wikimedia Foundation is focused on building improved curation and moderation tools for experienced Wikimedia contributors. We're now starting a Community Wishlist Survey to find the most useful projects that we can work on.
For phase 1 of the survey, we're inviting all active contributors to submit brief proposals, explaining the project that you'd like us to work on, and why it's important. Phase 1 will last for 2 weeks. In phase 2, we'll ask you to vote on the proposals. Afterwards, we'll analyze the top 10 proposals and create a prioritized wishlist.
While most of this process will be conducted in English, we're inviting people from any Wikimedia wiki to submit proposals. We'll also invite volunteer translators to help translate proposals into English.
Your proposal should include: the problem that you want to solve, who would benefit, and a proposed solution, if you have one. You can submit your proposal on the Community Wishlist Survey page, using the entry field and the big blue button. We will be accepting proposals for 2 weeks, ending on November 23.
We're looking forward to hearing your ideas!
Wikimania 2016 scholarships ambassadors needed
redigérHello! Wikimania 2016 scholarships will soon be open; by the end of the week we'll form the committee and we need your help, see Scholarship committee for details.
If you want to carefully review nearly a thousand applications in January, you might be a perfect committee member. Otherwise, you can volunteer as "ambassador": you will observe all the committee activities, ensure that people from your language or project manage to apply for a scholarship, translate scholarship applications written in your language to English and so on. Ambassadors are allowed to ask for a scholarship, unlike committee members.

Harassment consultation
redigérHjælp venligst med at oversætte til dit sprog
The Community Advocacy team the Wikimedia Foundation has opened a consultation on the topic of harassment on Meta. The consultation period is intended to run for one month from today, November 16, and end on December 17. Please share your thoughts there on harassment-related issues facing our communities and potential solutions. (Note: this consultation is not intended to evaluate specific cases of harassment, but rather to discuss the problem of harassment itself.)
This is a message regarding the proposed 2015 Free Bassel banner. Translations are available.
Hi everyone,
This is to inform all Wikimedia contributors that a straw poll seeking your involvement has just been started on Meta-Wiki.
As some of your might be aware, a small group of Wikimedia volunteers have proposed a banner campaign informing Wikipedia readers about the urgent situation of our fellow Wikipedian, open source software developer and Creative Commons activist, Bassel Khartabil. An exemplary banner and an explanatory page have now been prepared, and translated into about half a dozen languages by volunteer translators.
We are seeking your involvement to decide if the global Wikimedia community approves starting a banner campaign asking Wikipedia readers to call on the Syrian government to release Bassel from prison. We understand that a campaign like this would be unprecedented in Wikipedia's history, which is why we're seeking the widest possible consensus among the community.
Given Bassel's urgent situation and the resulting tight schedule, we ask everyone to get involved with the poll and the discussion to the widest possible extent, and to promote it among your communities as soon as possible.
(Apologies for writing in English; please kindly translate this message into your own language.)
Thank you for your participation!

We're beginning the second part of the Community Tech team's Community Wishlist Survey, and we're inviting all active contributors to vote on the proposals that have been submitted.
Thanks to you and other Wikimedia contributors, 111 proposals were submitted to the team. We've split the proposals into categories, and now it's time to vote!

As many of you know, January 15 is Wikipedia’s 15th Birthday!
People around the world are getting involved in the celebration and have started adding their events on Meta Page. While we are celebrating Wikipedia's birthday, we hope that all projects and affiliates will be able to utilize this celebration to raise awareness of our community's efforts.
Haven’t started planning? Don’t worry, there’s lots of ways to get involved. Here are some ideas:
- Join/host an event. We already have more than 80, and hope to have many more.
- Talk to local press. In the past 15 years, Wikipedia has accomplished extraordinary things. We’ve made a handy summary of milestones and encourage you to add your own. More resources, including a press release template and resources on working with the media, are also available.
- Design a Wikipedia 15 logo. In place of a single icon for Wikipedia 15, we’re making dozens. Add your own with something fun and representative of your community. Just use the visual guide so they share a common sensibility.
- Share a message on social media. Tell the world what Wikipedia means to you, and add #wikipedia15 to the post. We might re-tweet or share your message!
Everything is linked on the Wikipedia 15 Meta page. You’ll find a set of ten data visualization works that you can show at your events, and a list of all the Wikipedia 15 logos that community members have already designed.
If you have any questions, please contact Zachary McCune or Joe Sutherland.
Thanks and Happy nearly Wikipedia 15!
-The Wikimedia Foundation Communications team

Password strength RFC
redigérHej,
Vi har indledt en RFC på meta om at øge adgangskravene for brugere, som har konti, hvorfra de kan redigere i MediaWiki:Common.js, som har adgang til checkuser, eller som har adgang til Oversight.
Disse typer af konti er følsomme, hvad angår adgang til vore netsteder. og kan forårsage virkelig skade, hvis de falder i ondsindede hænder. For tiden er det eneste krav, at kodeordet er mindst 1 bogstav langt. Vi vil gerne ændre det til et minimum på 8 bogstaver (bytes) og samtidig forbyde nogle virkeligt almindelige kodeord.
Ved at forøge kravene til kodeord for konti med adgang på højt niveau håber vi at gøre wikimedias wiki'er mere sikre for alle. Læs venligst hele forslagsteksten her, og giv din mening til kende på denne RFC
Tak,
(på vegne af WMF sikkerhedsgruppe) BWolff (WMF) (talk) 21. dec 2015, 07:13 (UTC)
