Update on page issues on mobile web

Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua Hi everyone. The Readers web team has recently begun working on exposing issue templates on the mobile website. Currently, details about issues with page content are generally hidden on the mobile website. This leaves readers unaware of the reliability of the pages they are reading. The goal of this project is to improve awareness of particular issues within an article on the mobile web. We will do this by changing the visual styling of page issues.

So far, we have drafted a proposal on the design and implementation of the project. We were also able to run user testing on the proposed designs. The tests so far have positive results. Here is a quick summary of what we learned:

• The new treatment increases awareness of page issues among participants. This is true particularly when they are in a more evaluative/critical mode.
• Page issues make sense to readers and they understand how they work
• Readers care about page issues and consider them important
• Readers had overwhelmingly positive sentiments towards Wikipedia associated with learning about page issues

Our next step would be to start implementing these changes. We wanted to reach out to you for any concerns, thoughts, and suggestions you might have before beginning development. Please visit the project page where we have more information and mockups of how this may look. Please leave feedback on the talk page.

Consultation on the creation of a separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS

(Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua)

Hi all,

I'm preparing a change in who can edit sitewide CSS/JS pages. (These are pages like MediaWiki:Common.css and MediaWiki:Vector.js which are executed in the browser of all readers and editors.) Currently all administrators are able to edit these pages, which poses a serious and unnecessary security risk. Soon, a dedicated, smaller user group will take over this task. Your community will be able to decide who belongs in this group, so this should mean very little change for you. You can find out more and provide feedback at the consultation page on Meta. If you are involved in maintaining CSS/JS code, or policymaking around adminship requests, please give it a look!

Thanks!

New user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS

(Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua)

Hi all!

To improve the security of our readers and editors, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed. (These are pages like MediaWiki:Common.css and MediaWiki:Vector.js which contain code that is executed in the browsers of users of the site.) A new user group, interface-admin, has been created. Starting four weeks from now, only members of this group will be able edit CSS/JS pages that they do not own (that is, any page ending with .css or .js that is either in the MediaWiki: namespace or is another user's user subpage).

You can learn more about the motivation behind the change here.

Please add users who need to edit CSS/JS to the new group (this can be done the same way new administrators are added, by stewards or local bureaucrats). This is a dangerous permission; a malicious user or a hacker taking over the account of a careless interface-admin can abuse it in far worse ways than admin permissions could be abused. Please only assign it to users who need it, who are trusted by the community, and who follow common basic password and computer security practices (use strong passwords, do not reuse passwords, use two-factor authentication if possible, do not install software of questionable origin on your machine, use antivirus software if that's a standard thing in your environment).

Thanks!

Enabling a helpful feature for Template editors

Hello.

The team working on TemplateStyles at the Wikimedia Foundation would like to enable TemplateStyles on this wiki.

TemplateStyles is a feature to allow non-administrators to write and manage CSS styles for templates. It allows contributors who edit templates to separate content and presentation. A good web practice that makes it easier to manage the layout of templates. If you don't edit templates, this will not have any impact on your contributions.

TemplateStyles is useful for a few reasons.

• It makes it possible for templates to work better on mobile.
• It cuts out confusion on where to apply CSS rules.
• Editing CSS is currently limited to administrators, which is a major barrier to participation.
• All stylesheets must be loaded on all pages (whether they actually use the page or not), which wastes bandwidth and makes debugging style rules more difficult.

You can learn more about TemplateStyles on MediaWiki.org. Technical documentation is also available.

This is an optional feature and no one must use it, but template contributors are encouraged to do so! Please discuss and let us know if there are any concerns. If there are no concerns we will proceed to deploy the feature on the 9th of August.

Thank you.

Editing of sitewide CSS/JS is only possible for interface administrators from now

(Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua)

Hi all,

as announced previously, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed: only members of the interface-admin (Amministratori dell'interfaccia) group, and a few highly privileged global groups such as stewards, can edit CSS/JS pages that they do not own (that is, any page ending with .css or .js that is either in the MediaWiki: namespace or is another user's user subpage). This is done to improve the security of readers and editors of Wikimedia projects. More information is available at Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS. If you encounter any unexpected problems, please contact me or file a bug.

Thanks!

Read-only mode for up to an hour on 12 September and 10 October

Read this message in another language • Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

The Wikimedia Foundation will be testing its secondary data centre. This will make sure that Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.

They will switch all traffic to the secondary data center on Wednesday, 12 September 2018. On Wednesday, 10 October 2018, they will switch back to the primary data center.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop when we switch. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.

You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.

• You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Wednesday, 12 September and Wednesday, 10 October. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Thursday 13 September and Thursday 11 October).
• If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

Other effects:

• Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped. Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped.
• There will be code freezes for the weeks of 10 September 2018 and 8 October 2018. Non-essential code deployments will not happen.

This project may be postponed if necessary. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this. Please share this information with your community. /User:Johan(WMF) (talk)

The GFDL license on Commons

This has been posted here because your wiki allows local file uploads. Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua.

Commons will no longer allow uploads of photos, paintings, drawings, audio and video that use the GFDL license and no other license. This starts after 14 October. Textbooks, manuals and logos, diagrams and screenshots from GFDL software manuals that only use the GFDL license are still allowed. Files licensed with both GFDL and an accepted license like Creative Commons BY-SA are still allowed.

There is no time limit to move files from other projects to Commons. The licensing date is all that counts. It doesn't matter when the file was uploaded or created. Every wiki that allows local uploads should check if bots, scripts and templates that are used to move files to Commons need to be updated. Also update your local policy documentation if needed.

The decision to allow files that only have a GFDL license, or not allow them, is a decision all wikis can make for themselves. Your wiki can decide to continue allowing the files that Commons will no longer allow after 14 October. If your wiki decides to continue to allow files after 14 October that Commons will no longer allow those files should not be moved to Commons. — Alexis Jazz, distributed by Johan using MassMessage

Did you know?

Did you know that you can use the visual editor on a mobile device?

Tap on the pencil icon to start editing. The page will probably open in the wikitext editor.

You will see another pencil icon in the toolbar. Tap on that pencil icon to the switch between visual editing and wikitext editing.

Remember to publish your changes when you're done.

You can read and help translate the user guide, which has more information about how to use the visual editor.

Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has wrapped up most of their work on the 2017 wikitext editor and the visual diff tool. The team has begun investigating the needs of editors who use mobile devices. Their work board is available in Phabricator. Their current priorities are fixing bugs and improving mobile editing.

Recent changes

• The Editing team has published an initial report about mobile editing.
• The Editing team has begun a design study of visual editing on the mobile website. New editors have trouble doing basic tasks on a smartphone, such as adding links to Wikipedia articles. You can read the report.
• The Reading team is working on a separate mobile-based contributions project.
• The 2006 wikitext editor is no longer supported. If you used that toolbar, then you will no longer see any toolbar. You may choose another editing tool in your editing preferences, local gadgets, or beta features.
• The Editing team described the history and status of VisualEditor in this recorded public presentation (starting at 29 minutes, 30 seconds).
• The Language team released a new version of Content Translation (CX2) last month, on International Translation Day. It integrates the visual editor to support templates, tables, and images. It also produces better wikitext when the translated article is published. [1]

Let's work together

• The Editing team wants to improve visual editing on the mobile website. Please read their ideas and tell the team what you think would help editors who use the mobile site.
• The Community Wishlist Survey begins next week.
• If you aren't reading this in your preferred language, then please help us with translations! Subscribe to the Translators mailing list or contact us directly. We will notify you when the next issue is ready for translation. Grazie!

Change coming to how certain templates will appear on the mobile web

Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Example of improvements

Hello,

In a few weeks the Readers web team will be changing how some templates look on the mobile web site. We will make these templates more noticeable when viewing the article. We ask for your help in updating any templates that don't look correct.

What kind of templates? Specifically templates that notify readers and contributors about issues with the content of an article – the text and information in the article. Examples like Template:Unreferenced or Template:More citations needed. Right now these notifications are hidden behind a link under the title of an article. We will format templates like these (mostly those that use Template:Ambox or message box templates in general) to show a short summary under the page title. You can tap on the "Learn more" link to get more information.

For template editors we have some recommendations on how to make templates that are mobile-friendly and also further documentation on our work so far.

If you have questions about formatting templates for mobile, please leave a note on the project talk page or file a task in Phabricator and we will help you.

Grazie!

FileExporter beta feature

Coming soon: the beta feature FileExporter

A new beta feature will soon be released on all wikis: The FileExporter. It allows exports of files from a local wiki to Wikimedia Commons, including their file history and page history. Which files can be exported is defined by each wiki's community: Please check your wiki's configuration file if you want to use this feature.

The FileExporter has already been a beta feature on mediawiki.org, meta.wikimedia, deWP, faWP, arWP, koWP and on wikisource.org. After some functionality was added, it's now becoming a beta feature on all wikis. Deployment is planned for January 16. More information can be found on the project page.

As always, feedback is highly appreciated. If you want to test the FileExporter, please activate it in your user preferences. The best place for feedback is the central talk page. Thank you from Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes project.

Talk to us about talking

The Wikimedia Foundation is planning a global consultation about communication. The goal is to bring Wikimedians and wiki-minded people together to improve tools for communication.

We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis, whatever their experience, their skills or their devices.

We are looking for input from as many different parts of the Wikimedia community as possible. It will come from multiple projects, in multiple languages, and with multiple perspectives.

We are currently planning the consultation. We need your help.

We need volunteers to help talk to their communities or user groups.

You can help by hosting a discussion at your wiki. Here's what to do:

1. First, sign up your group here.
2. Next, create a page (or a section on a Village pump, or an e-mail thread – whatever is natural for your group) to collect information from other people in your group. This is not a vote or decision-making discussion: we are just collecting feedback.
3. Then ask people what they think about communication processes. We want to hear stories and other information about how people communicate with each other on and off wiki. Please consider asking these five questions:
   1. When you want to discuss a topic with your community, what tools work for you, and what problems block you?
   2. What about talk pages works for newcomers, and what blocks them?
   3. What do others struggle with in your community about talk pages?
   4. What do you wish you could do on talk pages, but can't due to the technical limitations?
   5. What are the important aspects of a "wiki discussion"?
4. Finally, please go to Talk pages consultation 2019 on Mediawiki.org and report what you learned from your group. Please include links if the discussion is available to the public.

You can also help build the list of the many different ways people talk to each other.

Not all groups active on wikis or around wikis use the same way to discuss things: it can happen on wiki, on social networks, through external tools... Tell us how your group communicates.

You can read more about the overall process on mediawiki.org. If you have questions or ideas, you can leave feedback about the consultation process in the language you prefer.

Thank you! We're looking forward to talking with you.

Wikidata Bridge: edit Wikidata’s data from Wikipedia infoboxes

Sorry for writing this message in English - feel free to help us translating it :)

Hello all,

Many language versions of Wikipedia use the content of Wikidata, the centralized knowledge base, to fill out the content of infoboxes. The data is stored in Wikidata and displayed, partially or completely, in the Wikipedia’s language, on the articles. This feature is used by many template editors, but brought several issues that were raised by communities in various places: not being able to edit the data directly from Wikipedia was one of them.

This is the reason why the Wikidata Bridge project started, with the goal of offering a way to Wikipedia editors to edit Wikidata’s data more easily. This will be achieved by an interface, connected to the infobox, that users can access directly from their local wiki.

The project is now at an early stage of development. A lot of user research has been done, and will continue to be done through the different phases of the project. The next steps of development will be achieved by the development team working at Wikimedia Deutschland, starting now until the end of 2019.

In order to make sure that we’re building a tool that is answering editors’ needs, we’re using agile methods in our development process. We don’t start with a fixed idea of the tool we want to deliver: we will build it together with the editors, based on feedback loops that we will regularly organize. The first version will not necessarily have all of the features you want, but it will keep evolving.

Here’s the planned timeline:

• From June to August, we will build the setup and technical groundwork.
• From September to November 2019, we will develop the first version of the feature and publish a test system so you can try it and give feedback.
• Later on, we will test the feature on a few projects, in collaboration with the communities.
  • We will first focus on early adopters communities who already implemented a shortcut from their infoboxes to edit Wikidata (for example Russian, Catalan, Basque Wikipedias)
  • but we also welcome also communities who volunteer to be part of the first test round.
  • Then we will reach some of the big Wikipedias (French, German, English) in order to see if the project scales and to address their potentially different needs.
  • Even later, we can consider enabling the feature on all the other projects.

In any case, no deployment or big change will be enforced on the projects without talking to the communities first, and helping the template builders to prepare for the changes they will have to do on the infoboxes’ code.

If you want to get involved, there are several ways to help:

• Read and help translating the documentation pages
• Follow the updates and participate in the first feedback loop
• Talk about it with your local community

More ideas will be added on this page along the way

If you have any questions for the development team, feel free to ask them on the main talk page. You can also ask under this message, but if you expect an answer from me, please make sure to ping me.

Thanks for your attention, Lea Lacroix (WMDE) 24 di Jug 2019 a lis 13:03 (UTC)

Edit Cards

This is what the new Edit Cards for editing links in the mobile visual editor look like. You can try the prototype here: 📲 Try Edit Cards.

Welcome back to the Editing newsletter.

Since the last newsletter, the team has released two new features for the mobile visual editor and has started developing three more. All of this work is part of the team's goal to make editing on mobile web simpler.

Before talking about the team's recent releases, we have a question for you:

Are you willing to try a new way to add and change links?

If you are interested, we would value your input! You can try this new link tool in the mobile visual editor on a separate wiki.

Follow these instructions and share your experience:

📲 Try Edit Cards.

Recent releases

The mobile visual editor is a simpler editing tool, for smartphones and tablets using the mobile site. The Editing team recently launched two new features to improve the mobile visual editor:

1. Section editing
   • The purpose is to help contributors focus on their edits.
   • The team studied this with an A/B test. This test showed that contributors who could use section editing were 1% more likely to publish the edits they started than people with only full-page editing.
2. Loading overlay
   • The purpose is to smooth the transition between reading and editing.

Section editing and the new loading overlay are now available to everyone using the mobile visual editor.

New and active projects

This is a list of our most active projects. Watch these pages to learn about project updates and to share your input on new designs, prototypes and research findings.

• Edit cards: This is a clearer way to add and edit links, citations, images, templates, etc. in articles. You can try this feature now. Go here to see how: 📲 Try Edit Cards.
• Mobile toolbar refresh: This project will learn if contributors are more successful when the editing tools are easier to recognize.
• Mobile visual editor availability: This A/B test asks: Are newer contributors more successful if they use the mobile visual editor? We are collaborating with 20 Wikipedias to answer this question.
• Usability improvements: This project will make the mobile visual editor easier to use. The goal is to let contributors stay focused on editing and to feel more confident in the editing tools.

Looking ahead

• Wikimania: Several members of the Editing Team will be attending Wikimania in August 2019. They will lead a session about mobile editing in the Community Growth space. Talk to the team about how editing can be improved.
• Talk Pages: In the coming months, the Editing Team will begin improving talk pages and communication on the wikis.

The VisualEditor on mobile is a good place to learn more about the projects we are working on. The team wants to talk with you about anything related to editing. If you have something to say or ask, please leave a message at Talk:VisualEditor on mobile.

Update on the consultation about office actions

Hello all,

Last month, the Wikimedia Foundation's Trust & Safety team announced a future consultation about partial and/or temporary office actions. We want to let you know that the draft version of this consultation has now been posted on Meta.

This is a draft. It is not intended to be the consultation itself, which will be posted on Meta likely in early September. Please do not treat this draft as a consultation. Instead, we ask your assistance in forming the final language for the consultation.

For that end, we would like your input over the next couple of weeks about what questions the consultation should ask about partial and temporary Foundation office action bans and how it should be formatted. Please post it on the draft talk page. Our goal is to provide space for the community to discuss all the aspects of these office actions that need to be discussed, and we want to ensure with your feedback that the consultation is presented in the best way to encourage frank and constructive conversation.

Please visit the consultation draft on Meta-wiki and leave your comments on the draft’s talk page about what the consultation should look like and what questions it should ask.

New tools and IP masking

Hey everyone,

The Wikimedia Foundation wants to work on two things that affect how we patrol changes and handle vandalism and harassment. We want to make the tools that are used to handle bad edits better. We also want to get better privacy for unregistered users so their IP addresses are no longer shown to everyone in the world. We would not hide IP addresses until we have better tools for patrolling.

We have an idea of what tools could be working better and how a more limited access to IP addresses would change things, but we need to hear from more wikis. You can read more about the project on Meta and post comments and feedback. Now is when we need to hear from you to be able to give you better tools to handle vandalism, spam and harassment.

You can post in your language if you can't write in English.

The consultation on partial and temporary Foundation bans just started

Hello,

In a recent statement, the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees requested that staff hold a consultation to "re-evaluat[e] or add community input to the two new office action policy tools (temporary and partial Foundation bans)".

Accordingly, the Foundation's Trust & Safety team invites all Wikimedians to join this consultation and give their feedback from 30 September to 30 October.

How can you help?

• Suggest how partial and temporary Foundation bans should be used, if they should (eg: On all projects, or only on a subset);

• Give ideas about how partial and temporary Foundation bans should ideally implemented, if they should be; and/or

• Propose changes to the existing Office Actions policy on partial and temporary bans.

We offer our thanks in advance for your contributions, and we hope to get as much input as possible from community members during this consultation!

Feedback wanted on Desktop Improvements project

Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Ciao. The Readers Web team at the WMF will work on some improvements to the desktop interface over the next couple of years. The goal is to increase usability without removing any functionality. We have been inspired by changes made by volunteers, but that currently only exist as local gadgets and user scripts, prototypes, and volunteer-led skins. We would like to begin the process of bringing some of these changes into the default experience on all Wikimedia projects.

We are currently in the research stage of this project and are looking for ideas for improvements, as well as feedback on our current ideas and mockups. So far, we have performed interviews with community members at Wikimania. We have gathered lists of previous volunteer and WMF work in this area. We are examining possible technical approaches for such changes.

We would like individual feedback on the following:

• Identifying focus areas for the project we have not yet discovered
• Expanding the list of existing gadgets and user scripts that are related to providing a better desktop experience. If you can think of some of these from your wiki, please let us know
• Feedback on the ideas and mockups we have collected so far

We would also like to gather a list of wikis that would be interested in being test wikis for this project - these wikis would be the first to receive the updates once we’re ready to start building.

When giving feedback, please consider the following goals of the project:

• Make it easier for readers to focus on the content
• Provide easier access to everyday actions (e.g. search, language switching, editing)
• Put things in logical and useful places
• Increase consistency in the interface with other platforms - mobile web and the apps
• Eliminate clutter
• Plan for future growth

As well as the following constraints:

• Not touching the content - no work will be done in terms of styling templates or to the structure of page contents themselves
• Not removing any functionality - things might move around, but all navigational items and other functionality currently available by default will remain
• No drastic changes to the layout - we're taking an evolutionary approach to the changes and want the site to continue feeling familiar to readers and editors

Please give all feedback (in any language) at mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements

After this round of feedback, we plan on building a prototype of suggested changes based on the feedback we receive. You’ll hear from us again asking for feedback on this prototype.

Grazie! Quiddity (WMF) (talk)

Beta feature "Reference Previews"

A new beta feature will soon be deployed to your wiki: Reference Previews. As you might guess from the name, this feature gives you a preview of references in the article text. That means, you can look up a reference without jumping down to the bottom of the page.

Reference Previews have already been a beta feature on German and Arabic Wikipedia since April. Now they will become available on more wikis. Deployment is planned for October 24. More information can be found on the project page.

As always, feedback is highly appreciated. If you want to test Reference Previews, please activate the beta feature in your user preferences and let us know what you think. The best place for feedback is the central talk page. We hope the feature will serve you well in your work. Thank you from Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes project.

Editing News #2 – Mobile editing and talk pages

Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter

Inside this newsletter, the Editing team talks about their work on the mobile visual editor, on the new talk pages project, and at Wikimania 2019.

Help

What talk page interactions do you remember? Is it a story about how someone helped you to learn something new? Is it a story about how someone helped you get involved in a group? Something else? Whatever your story is, we want to hear it!

Please tell us a story about how you used a talk page. Please share a link to a memorable discussion, or describe it on the talk page for this project. The team wants your examples. These examples will help everyone develop a shared understanding of what this project should support and encourage.

Talk pages project

The Talk Pages Consultation was a global consultation to define better tools for wiki communication. From February through June 2019, more than 500 volunteers on 20 wikis, across 15 languages and multiple projects, came together with members of the Foundation to create a product direction for a set of discussion tools. The Phase 2 Report of the Talk Page Consultation was published in August. It summarizes the product direction the team has started to work on, which you can read more about here: Talk Page Project project page.

The team needs and wants your help at this early stage. They are starting to develop the first idea. Please add your name to the "Getting involved" section of the project page, if you would like to hear about opportunities to participate.

Mobile visual editor

The Editing team is trying to make it simpler to edit on mobile devices. The team is changing the visual editor on mobile. If you have something to say about editing on a mobile device, please leave a message at Talk:VisualEditor on mobile.

Edit Cards

What happens when you click on a link. The new Edit Card is bigger and has more options for editing links.

• On 3 September, the Editing team released version 3 of Edit Cards. Anyone could use the new version in the mobile visual editor.
• There is an updated design on the Edit Card for adding and modifying links. There is also a new, combined workflow for editing a link's display text and target.
• Feedback: You can try the new Edit Cards by opening the mobile visual editor on a smartphone. Please post your feedback on the Edit cards talk page.

Toolbar

The editing toolbar is changing in the mobile visual editor. The old system had two different toolbars. Now, all the buttons are together. Tell the team what you think about the new toolbar.

• In September, the Editing team updated the mobile visual editor's editing toolbar. Anyone could see these changes in the mobile visual editor.
  • One toolbar: All of the editing tools are located in one toolbar. Previously, the toolbar changed when you clicked on different things.
  • New navigation: The buttons for moving forward and backward in the edit flow have changed.
  • Seamless switching: an improved workflow for switching between the visual and wikitext modes.
• Feedback: You can try the refreshed toolbar by opening the mobile VisualEditor on a smartphone. Please post your feedback on the Toolbar feedback talk page.

Wikimania

The Editing Team attended Wikimania 2019 in Sweden. They led a session on the mobile visual editor and a session on the new talk pages project. They tested two new features in the mobile visual editor with contributors. You can read more about what the team did and learned in the team's report on Wikimania 2019.

Looking ahead

• Talk Pages Project: The team is thinking about the first set of proposed changes. The team will be working with a few communities to pilot those changes. The best way to stay informed is by adding your username to the list on the project page: Getting involved.
• Testing the mobile visual editor as the default: The Editing team plans to post results before the end of the calendar year. The best way to stay informed is by adding the project page to your watchlist: VisualEditor as mobile default project page.
• Measuring the impact of Edit Cards: This study asks whether the project helped editors add links and citations. The Editing team hopes to share results in November. The best way to stay informed is by adding the project page to your watchlist: Edit Cards project page.

Additional interface for edit conflicts on talk pages

Sorry, for writing this text in English. If you could help to translate it, it would be appreciated.

You might know the new interface for edit conflicts (currently a beta feature). Now, Wikimedia Germany is designing an additional interface to solve edit conflicts on talk pages. This interface is shown to you when you write on a discussion page and another person writes a discussion post in the same line and saves it before you do. With this additional editing conflict interface you can adjust the order of the comments and edit your comment. We are inviting everyone to have a look at the planned feature.

This early version of the Reply tool automatically signs and indents comments.

The Editing team has been working on the talk pages project. The goal of the talk pages project is to help contributors communicate on wiki more easily. This project is the result of the Talk pages consultation 2019.

In a future update, the team plans to test a tool for easily linking to another user's name, a rich-text editing option, and other tools.

The team is building a new tool for replying to comments now. This early version can sign and indent comments automatically. Please test the new Reply tool.

• On 31 March 2020, the new rispuint tool was offered as a Beta Feature editors at four Wikipedias: Arabic, Dutch, French, and Hungarian. If your community also wants early access to the new tool, contact User:Whatamidoing (WMF).
• The team is planning some upcoming changes. Please review the proposed design and share your thoughts on the talk page. The team will test features such as:
  • an easy way to mention another editor ("pinging"),
  • a rich-text visual editing option, and
  • other features identified through user testing or recommended by editors.

The new features include a toolbar. What do you think should be in the toolbar?

This issue of the Editing newsletter includes information the Talk pages project, an effort to help contributors communicate on wiki more easily.

• Reply tool: This is available as a Beta Feature at the four partner wikis (Arabic, Dutch, French, and Hungarian Wikipedias). The Beta Feature is called "Strumenti di discussione". The Beta Feature will get new features soon. The new features include writing comments in a new visual editing mode and pinging other users by typing @. You can test the new features on the Beta Cluster now. Some other wikis will have a chance to try the Beta Feature in the coming months.
• New requirements for user signatures: Soon, users will not be able to save invalid custom signatures in Special:Preferences. This will reduce signature spoofing, prevent page corruption, and make new talk page tools more reliable. Most editors will not be affected.
• New discussion tool: The Editing team is beginning work on a simpler process for starting new discussions. You can see the initial design on the project page.
• Research on the use of talk pages: The Editing team worked with the Wikimedia research team to study how talk pages help editors improve articles. We learned that new editors who use talk pages make more edits to the main namespace than new editors who don't use talk pages.

More than 50 million edits have been made using the visual editor on desktop.

Seven years ago this month, the Editing team offered the visual editor to most Wikipedia editors. Since then, editors have achieved many milestones:

• More than 50 million edits have been made using the visual editor on desktop.
• More than 2 million new articles have been created in the visual editor. More than 600,000 of these new articles were created during 2019.
• The visual editor is increasingly popular. The proportion of all edits made using the visual editor has increased every year since its introduction.
• In 2019, 35% of the edits by newcomers (logged-in editors with ≤99 edits) used the visual editor. This percentage has increased every year.
• Almost 5 million edits on the mobile site have been made with the visual editor. Most of these edits have been made since the Editing team started improving the mobile visual editor in 2018.
• On 17 November 2019, the first edit from outer space was made in the mobile visual editor. 🚀 👩‍🚀
• Editors have made more than 7 million edits in the 2017 wikitext editor, including starting 600,000 new articles in it. The 2017 wikitext editor is VisualEditor's built-in wikitext mode. You can enable it in your preferences.

Announcing a new wiki project! Welcome, Abstract Wikipedia

Hi all,

It is my honor to introduce Abstract Wikipedia, a new project that has been unanimously approved by the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. Abstract Wikipedia proposes a new way to generate baseline encyclopedic content in a multilingual fashion, allowing more contributors and more readers to share more knowledge in more languages. It is an approach that aims to make cross-lingual cooperation easier on our projects, increase the sustainability of our movement through expanding access to participation, improve the user experience for readers of all languages, and innovate in free knowledge by connecting some of the strengths of our movement to create something new.

This is our first new project in over seven years. Abstract Wikipedia was submitted as a project proposal by Denny Vrandečić in May 2020 after years of preparation and research, leading to a detailed plan and lively discussions in the Wikimedia communities. We know that the energy and the creativity of the community often runs up against language barriers, and information that is available in one language may not make it to other language Wikipedias. Abstract Wikipedia intends to look and feel like a Wikipedia, but build on the powerful, language-independent conceptual models of Wikidata, with the goal of letting volunteers create and maintain Wikipedia articles across our polyglot Wikimedia world.

The project will allow volunteers to assemble the fundamentals of an article using words and entities from Wikidata. Because Wikidata uses conceptual models that are meant to be universal across languages, it should be possible to use and extend these building blocks of knowledge to create models for articles that also have universal value. Using code, volunteers will be able to translate these abstract “articles” into their own languages. If successful, this could eventually allow everyone to read about any topic in Wikidata in their own language.

As you can imagine, this work will require a lot of software development, and a lot of cooperation among Wikimedians. In order to make this effort possible, Denny will join the Foundation as a staff member in July and lead this initiative. You may know Denny as the creator of Wikidata, a long-time community member, a former staff member at Wikimedia Deutschland, and a former Trustee at the Wikimedia Foundation . We are very excited that Denny will bring his skills and expertise to work on this project alongside the Foundation’s product, technology, and community liaison teams.

It is important to acknowledge that this is an experimental project, and that every Wikipedia community has different needs. This project may offer some communities great advantages. Other communities may engage less. Every language Wikipedia community will be free to choose and moderate whether or how they would use content from this project.

We are excited that this new wiki-project has the possibility to advance knowledge equity through increased access to knowledge. It also invites us to consider and engage with critical questions about how and by whom knowledge is constructed. We look forward to working in cooperation with the communities to think through these important questions.

There is much to do as we begin designing a plan for Abstract Wikipedia in close collaboration with our communities. I encourage you to get involved by going to the project page and joining the new mailing list . We recognize that Abstract Wikipedia is ambitious, but we also recognize its potential. We invite you all to join us on a new, unexplored path.

Yours,

Katherine Maher (Executive Director, Wikimedia Foundation)

The Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC): we want to hear from you.

Ciao. Apologies that you may not be reading this message in your native language: translations of the following message may be available on Meta. Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua. Grazie!

At times, our contributor communities and projects have suffered from a lack of guidelines that can help us create an environment where free knowledge can be shared safely without fear. There has been talk about the need for a global set of conduct rules in different communities over time.

Recently, the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees announced a Community Culture Statement, asking for new standards to address harassment and promote inclusivity across projects.

The universal code of conduct will be a binding minimum set of standards across all Wikimedia projects, and will apply to all of us, staff and volunteers alike, all around the globe. It is of great importance that we all participate in expressing our opinions and thoughts about UCoC and its values. We should think about what we want it to cover or include and what it shouldn’t include, and how it may create difficulties or help our groups.

This is the time to talk about it. Before starting drafting the code of conduct, we would like to hear from you and to solicit the opinions and feedback of your colleagues. In order for your voice to be heard, we encourage and invite you to read more about the universal code of conduct (UCoC) and then write down your opinions or feedback on the discussion page.

To reduce language barriers during the process, you are welcome to translate the universal code of conduct main page from English into your respective local language. You and your community may choose to provide your opinions/feedback using your local languages.

Technical Wishes: FileExporter and FileImporter become default features on all Wikis

The FileExporter and FileImporter will become a default features on all wikis until August 7, 2020. They are planned to help you to move files from your local wiki to Wikimedia Commons easier while keeping all original file information (Description, Source, Date, Author, View History) intact. Additionally, the move is documented in the files view history. How does it work?

Step 1: If you are an auto-confirmed user, you will see a link "Move file to Wikimedia Commons" on the local file page.

Step 2: When you click on this link, the FileImporter checks if the file can in fact be moved to Wikimedia Commons. These checks are performed based on the wiki's configuration file which is created and maintained by each local wiki community.

Step 3: If the file is compatible with Wikimedia Commons, you will be taken to an import page, at which you can update or add information regarding the file, such as the description. You can also add the 'Now Commons' template to the file on the local wiki by clicking the corresponding check box in the import form. Admins can delete the file from the local wiki by enabling the corresponding checkbox. By clicking on the 'Import' button at the end of the page, the file is imported to Wikimedia Commons.

If you want to know more about the FileImporter extension or the Technical Wishes Project, follow the links. --For the Technical Wishes Team:

Important: maintenance operation on September 1st

Read this message in another language • Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

The Wikimedia Foundation will be testing its secondary data centre. This will make sure that Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.

They will switch all traffic to the secondary data centre on Tuesday, September 1st 2020.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop while the switch is made. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.

You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.

• You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Tuesday, September 1st. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Wednesday September 2).
• If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

Other effects:

• Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped. Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped.
• There will be code freezes for the week of September 1st, 2020. Non-essential code deployments will not happen.

This project may be postponed if necessary. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this. Please share this information with your community.

Wiki of functions naming contest

Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua.

Ciao. Please help pick a name for the new Wikimedia wiki project. This project will be a wiki where the community can work together on a library of functions. The community can create new functions, read about them, discuss them, and share them. Some of these functions will be used to help create language-independent Wikipedia articles that can be displayed in any language, as part of the Abstract Wikipedia project. But functions will also be usable in many other situations.

There will be two rounds of voting, each followed by legal review of candidates, with voting beginning on 29 September and 27 October. Our goal is to have a final project name selected on 8 December. If you would like to participate, then please learn more and vote now at meta-wiki. Grazie! --Quiddity (WMF)

Partecipate alla tavola rotonda sui progetti fratelli alla ItWikiCon!

Ciao a tutti! Alla prossima ItWikicon, che si svolgerà online il weekend del 24-25 ottobre prossimi, ci sarà una tavola rotonda sui progetti fratelli (comprese le diverse versioni linguistiche) il sabato dalle 11.30 alle 13.15 (maggiori informazioni qui). L'idea è di analizzare insieme punti di forza e criticità dei diversi progetti e riflettere su strumenti comuni che possano potenziarne il funzionamento, in particolare nei collegamenti tra di loro. Sarebbe bello avere un'ampia partecipazione da parte di utenti attivi nei progetti fratelli, quindi vi invitiamo a presenziare :-) è aperto a tutti e non è necessario registrarsi (quindi si può tranquillamente restare anonimi). Cogliamo l'occasione per confrontarci insieme! --Superchilum (discussion) 12 di Otu 2020 a lis 23:10 (CEST)

Important: maintenance operation on October 27

Read this message in another language • Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

The Wikimedia Foundation tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers. This will make sure that Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.

They will switch all traffic back to the primary data center on Tuesday, October 27 2020.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop while the switch is made. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.

You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.

• You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Tuesday, October 27. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (14:00 WET, 15:00 CET, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 03:00 NZDT on Wednesday October 28).
• If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

Other effects:

• Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped. Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped.
• There will be code freezes for the week of October 26, 2020. Non-essential code deployments will not happen.

This project may be postponed if necessary. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this.

Global bot policy proposal: invitation to a Meta discussion

Ciao!

I apologize for sending a message in English. Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua. According to the list, your wiki project currently is opted in to the global bot policy. Under this policy, bots that fix double redirects or maintain interwiki links are allowed to operate under a global bot flag that is assigned directly by the stewards.

As the Wikimedia projects developed, the need for the current global bot policy decreased, and in the past years, no bots were appointed via that policy. That is mainly given Wikidata were estabilished in 2013, and it is no longer necessary to have dozens of bots that maintain interwiki links.

A proposal was made at Meta-Wiki, which proposes that the stewards will be authorized to determine whether an uncontroversial task may be assigned a global bot flag. The stewards already assign permissions that are more impactful on many wikis, namely, global sysops and global renamers, and I do not think that trust should be an issue. The stewards will assign the permission only to time-proven bots that are already approved at a number of projects, like ListeriaBot.

By this message, I would like to invite you to comment in the global RFC, to voice your opinion about this matter.

Thank you for your time.

Best regards,

Wikidata descriptions changes to be included more often in Recent Changes and Watchlist

Sorry for sending this message in English. Translations are available on this page. Feel free to translate it in more languages!

As you may know, you can include changes coming from Wikidata in your Watchlist and Recent Changes (in your preferences). Until now, this feature didn’t always include changes made on Wikidata descriptions due to the way Wikidata tracks the data used in a given article.

Starting on December 3rd, the Watchlist and Recent Changes will include changes on the descriptions of Wikidata Items that are used in the pages that you watch. This will only include descriptions in the language of your wiki to make sure that you’re only seeing changes that are relevant to your wiki.

This improvement was requested by many users from different projects. We hope that it can help you monitor the changes on Wikidata descriptions that affect your wiki and participate in the effort of improving the data quality on Wikidata for all Wikimedia wikis and beyond.

Note: if you didn’t use the Wikidata watchlist integration feature for a long time, feel free to give it another chance! The feature has been improved since the beginning and the content it displays is more precise and useful than at the beginning of the feature in 2015.

If you encounter any issue or want to provide feedback, feel free to use this Phabricator ticket. Thanks!

Proposal: Set two-letter project shortcuts as alias to project namespace globally

Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Hello everyone,

I apologize for posting in English. I would like to inform everyone that I created a new global request for comment (GRFC) at Meta Wiki, which may affect your project: m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally.

In this GRFC, I propose that two-project shortcuts for project names will become a default alias for the project namespace. For instance, on all Wikipedias, WP will be an alias to the Wikipedia: namespace (and similar for other projects). Full list is available in the GRFC.

This is already the case for Wikivoyages, and many individual projects asked for this alias to be implemented. I believe this makes it easier to access the materials in the project namespace, as well as creating shortcuts like WP:NPOV, as well as helps new projects to use this feature, without having to figure out how to request site configuration changes first.

As far as I can see, Vichipedie currently does not have such an alias set. This means that such an alias will be set for you, if the GRFC is accepted by the global community.

I would like to ask all community members to participate in the request for comment at Meta-Wiki, see m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally.

Please feel free to ask me if you have any questions about this proposal.

Best regards,

Proposta di regolamento itWikiCon

Cara comunità,
con l'obiettivo di facilitare l'organizzazione delle future itWikiCon, un gruppo di organizzatori delle edizioni passate, con all'interno anche rappresentanti di WMI e WMCH, ha pensato di proporre questo regolamento: lo scopo è quello di riuscire ogni anno in tempi rapidi ad assegnare l'organizzazione di itWikiCon e ottenere, se necessario, il supporto economico dei chapter.
Nel caso in cui ci siano più proposte concomitanti, il procedimento servirebbe anche a decidere quale candidatura sostenere. Ovviamente è solo una bozza che proponiamo alla comunità di lingua italiana di commentare e approvare. L'obiettivo sarebbe avere un testo approvato entro fine aprile in modo da dare tempo a chi si volesse organizzarne una dal vivo per il 2022 (per il 2021 sarà necessariamente ancora on-line). --CristianNX, Ferdi2005, Ilario, Jaqen, Ruthven, Yiyi, Ysogo, Valerio Bozzolan, Superchilum (discussion) 23 di Mar 2021 a lis 22:36 (CET)

Universal Code of Conduct – 2021 consultations

Universal Code of Conduct Phase 2

Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

The Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) provides a universal baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire Wikimedia movement and all its projects. The project is currently in Phase 2, outlining clear enforcement pathways. You can read more about the whole project on its project page.

Drafting Committee: Call for applications

The Wikimedia Foundation is recruiting volunteers to join a committee to draft how to make the code enforceable. Volunteers on the committee will commit between 2 and 6 hours per week from late April through July and again in October and November. It is important that the committee be diverse and inclusive, and have a range of experiences, including both experienced users and newcomers, and those who have received or responded to, as well as those who have been falsely accused of harassment.

To apply and learn more about the process, see Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee.

2021 community consultations: Notice and call for volunteers / translators

From 5 April – 5 May 2021 there will be conversations on many Wikimedia projects about how to enforce the UCoC. We are looking for volunteers to translate key material, as well as to help host consultations on their own languages or projects using suggested key questions. If you are interested in volunteering for either of these roles, please contact us in whatever language you are most comfortable.

To learn more about this work and other conversations taking place, see Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations.

Global bot policy changes

Ciao!

I apologize for sending a message in English. Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua. According to the list, your wiki project is currently opted in to the global bot policy. As such, I want to let you know about some changes that were made after the global RfC was closed.

• Global bots are now subject to a 2 week discussion, and it'll be publicized via a MassMessage list, available at Bot policy/New global bot discussion on Meta. Please subscribe yourself or your wiki if you are interested in new global bots proposals.
• For a bot to be considered for approval, it must demonstrate it is welcomed in multiple projects, and a good way to do that is to have the bot flag on at least 5 wikis for a single task.
• The bot operator should make sure to adhere to the wiki's preference as related to the use of the bot flag (i.e., if a wiki doesn't want a bot to use the flag as it edits, that should be followed).

Thank you for your time.

Best regards,

Line numbering coming soon to all wikis

Example

From April 15, you can enable line numbering in some wikitext editors - for now in the template namespace, coming to more namespaces soon. This will make it easier to detect line breaks and to refer to a particular line in discussions. These numbers will be shown if you enable the syntax highlighting feature (CodeMirror extension), which is supported in the 2010 and 2017 wikitext editors.

More information can be found on this project page. Everyone is invited to test the feature, and to give feedback on this talk page.

-- Johanna Strodt (WMDE) 12 di Avr 2021 a lis 17:08 (CEST)

Suggested Values

From April 29, it will be possible to suggest values for parameters in templates. Suggested values can be added to TemplateData and will then be shown as a drop-down list in VisualEditor. This allows template users to quickly select an appropriate value. This way, it prevents potential errors and reduces the effort needed to fill the template with values. It will still be possible to fill in values other than the suggested ones.

More information, including the supported parameter types and how to create suggested values: [1] [2]. Everyone is invited to test the feature, and to give feedback on this talk page.

Editing news 2021 #2

When newcomers had the Reply tool and tried to post on a talk page, they were more successful at posting a comment. (Source)

Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of the Reply Tool. The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped newer editors communicate on wiki. The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor.

The key results were:

• Newer editors who had automatic ("default on") access to the Reply tool were more likely to post a comment on a talk page.
• The comments that newer editors made with the Reply Tool were also less likely to be reverted than the comments that newer editors made with page editing.

These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful.

Looking ahead

The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months. This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.

The next step is to resolve a technical challenge. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the Wikipedias that participated in the study. After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis.

You can turn on "Strumenti di discussione" in Beta Features now. After you get the Reply tool, you can change your preferences at any time in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion.

Codice universale di condotta - bozza delle linee guida sull'applicazione

Buongiorno a tutti,

Il comitato di redazione della fase 2 del codice universale di condotta ha completato i lavori, qui trovate la bozza delle linee guida sull'applicazione del codice universale di condotta (UCoC).

La bozza è basata sui risultati delle consultazioni, discussioni e ricerche, tra queste anche la consultazione in cui è stata coinvolta la comunità di lingua italiana ad inizio 2021.

La bozza è, appunto, una bozza, è quindi possibile (anzi, caldamente auspicato) che tutti coloro che sono interessati esprimano opinioni e commenti, anche suggerimenti su come migliorare la traduzione. Il comitato revisionerà la bozza tenendo conto del feedback ricevuto da parte delle comunità.

Il periodo di revisione comincia oggi 17 agosto 2021 e durerà fino al 17 ottobre.

La bozza può essere commentata in diversi "luoghi":

• direttamente su meta, nella pagina di discussione della bozza (pagina che probabilmente sarà ad alto traffico)
• sempre su meta nella pagina di discussione della traduzione in italiano (ambiente più intimo)
• nella pagina di discussione del codice universale di condotta che si trova sulla Wikipedia in italiano
• potete anche inviarmi commenti o osservazioni via email

Sono previsti inoltre degli incontri e tavole rotonde online (in inglese):

• Incontri online - 24 agosto, 31 agosto, 7 settembre @ 03:00 UTC & 14:00 UTC
• Tavole rotonde online - 18 settembre @ 03:00 UTC & 15:00 UTC

I commenti e le osservazioni verranno poi riassunte in un riepilogo quindicinale che verrà pubblicato qui.

Mi rendo conto che il documento è lungo e a tratti complesso, suggerisco però di prendersi il tempo per leggerlo dato il potenziale impatto che avrà.
Grazie per l'attenzione! --Civvi (WMF) (discussion) 17 di Avo 2021 a lis 21:55 (CEST)

The 2022 Community Wishlist Survey will happen in January

Hello everyone,

We hope all of you are as well and safe as possible during these trying times! We wanted to share some news about a change to the Community Wishlist Survey 2022. We would like to hear your opinions as well.

Summary:

We will be running the Community Wishlist Survey 2022 in January 2022. We need more time to work on the 2021 wishes. We also need time to prepare some changes to the Wishlist 2022. In the meantime, you can use a dedicated sandbox to leave early ideas for the 2022 wishes.

Proposing and wish-fulfillment will happen during the same year

In the past, the Community Tech team has run the Community Wishlist Survey for the following year in November of the prior year. For example, we ran the Wishlist for 2021 in November 2020. That worked well a few years ago. At that time, we used to start working on the Wishlist soon after the results of the voting were published.

However, in 2021, there was a delay between the voting and the time when we could start working on the new wishes. Until July 2021, we were working on wishes from the Wishlist for 2020.

We hope having the Wishlist 2022 in January 2022 will be more intuitive. This will also give us time to fulfill more wishes from the 2021 Wishlist.

Encouraging wider participation from historically excluded communities

We are thinking how to make the Wishlist easier to participate in. We want to support more translations, and encourage under-resourced communities to be more active. We would like to have some time to make these changes.

A new space to talk to us about priorities and wishes not granted yet

We will have gone 365 days without a Wishlist. We encourage you to approach us. We hope to hear from you in the talk page, but we also hope to see you at our bi-monthly Talk to Us meetings! These will be hosted at two different times friendly to time zones around the globe.

We will begin our first meeting September 15th at 23:00 UTC. More details about the agenda and format coming soon!

Brainstorm and draft proposals before the proposal phase

If you have early ideas for wishes, you can use the new Community Wishlist Survey sandbox. This way, you will not forget about these before January 2022. You will be able to come back and refine your ideas. Remember, edits in the sandbox don't count as wishes!

Feedback

• What should we do to improve the Wishlist pages?
• How would you like to use our new sandbox?
• What, if any, risks do you foresee in our decision to change the date of the Wishlist 2022?
• What will help more people participate in the Wishlist 2022?

Answer on the talk page (in any language you prefer) or at our Talk to Us meetings.

Elezioni del Board - I risultati

Buongiorno a tutti,

sono qui per annunciarvi i risultati delle elezioni del Board of Trustees della Wikimedia Foundation 2021, le elezioni sono state organizzate per selezionare quattro nuovi membri. Il Comitato Elettorale ha esaminato i voti, hanno espresso voti validi un numero record di 6.873 persone provenienti da 214 progetti. I seguenti quattro candidati hanno ricevuto il maggior sostegno:

1. Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight - (Rosiestep)
2. Victoria Doronina - (Victoria)
3. Dariusz Jemielniak - (Pundit)
4. Lorenzo Losa - (Laurentius)

Questi candidati, pur essendosi classificati ai primi posti tramite il voto della comunità, non sono ancora nominati nel Board of Trustees. Devono infatti ancora superare con successo un fase di controllo e la verifica delle qualifiche delineate nello statuto. Il Board ha definito la data provvisoria per nominare i nuovi amministratori alla fine di questo mese.

Qui si trova l'annuncio completo.

Con l'occasione vi ricordo che per qualsiasi domanda sull'organizzazione, sul movimento Wikimedia in generale, punti non chiari delle pagine di meta, suggerimenti, osservazioni, commenti sui lunghi messaggi in lingua inglese che vi arrivano su questa pagina o qualsiasi altro aspetto potete contattarmi in italiano ma anche in "lingua locale del progetto" sulla pagina di discussione su meta oppure via email tramite la funzione scrivi all'utente :-) --Civvi (WMF) (discussion) 8 di Set 2021 a lis 14:29 (CEST)

Call for Candidates for the Movement Charter Drafting Committee ending 14 September 2021

La Strategia del Movimento annuncia l'apertura delle candidature per il comitato di redazione della Carta fondamentale del movimento. Le candidature si aprono il 2 di agosto del 2021 e si chiudono 14 di settembre del 2021.

Ci si aspetta che il comitato rappresenti la diversità del movimento. La diversità comprende genere, lingua, provenienza geografica ed esperienza. Questo include la partecipazione nei progetti, affiliati e nella Wikimedia Foundation.

Per farne parte non è richiesta la conoscenza fluente dell'inglese. Se necessario, viene fornito sostegno per la traduzione. I membri riceveranno un'indennità per compensare i costi di partecipazione. Si tratta di 100 dollari ogni due mesi.

Stiamo cercando persone che abbiano alcune fra le seguenti competenze:

• Sappiano scrivere in modo collaborativo. (dimostrare dell'esperienza è un vantaggio)
• Siano pronte a trovare dei compromessi.
• Siano attente all'inclusione e alla diversità.
• Abbiano conoscenza delle consultazioni comunitarie.
• Abbiano esperienza di comunicazione interculturale.
• Abbiano esperienza di governance o di organizzazione in non-profit o comunità.
• Abbiano esperienza nella negoziazione con parti diverse.

Ci si attende che il comitato cominci con 15 persone. Se ci sono 20 o più candidati avrà luogo un processo di selezione con voto. Se vi sono 19 o meno candidati la selezione avverrà senza voto.

Vuoi aiutare Wikimedia a progredire in questo ruolo? Invia la tua candidatura dalla prossima settimana qui. Per favore contatta strategy2030Model:Atwikimedia.org in caso di domande.

Server switch

Read this message in another language • Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

The Wikimedia Foundation tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers. This will make sure that Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.

They will switch all traffic back to the primary data center on Tuesday, 14 September 2021.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop while the switch is made. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.

You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.

• You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Tuesday, 14 September 2021. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (07:00 PDT, 10:00 EDT, 15:00 WEST/BST, 16:00 CEST, 19:30 IST, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Wednesday, 15 September).
• If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

Other effects:

• Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped. Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped.
• We expect the code deployments to happen as any other week. However, some case-by-case code freezes could punctually happen if the operation require them afterwards.

This project may be postponed if necessary. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this. A banner will be displayed on all wikis 30 minutes before this operation happens. Please share this information with your community.

Strategia del movimento Wikimedia - Programma di sovvenzioni

Buongiorno a tutti e scusate l'italiano,

Sono qui per informarvi sul programma di sovvenzioni legate all'attuazione della strategia del movimento Wikimedia.

Le sovvenzioni riguardano attività o progetti che affrontano una delle iniziative prioritarie definite per questa fase (questo trimestre) che sono:

• Carta fondamentale del movimento Wikimedia (Iniziativa 22, Cluster A)
• Hub tematici e regionali (Iniziativa 25, Cluster D)
• Approccio globale per lo sviluppo locale di competenze (Iniziativa 31, Cluster C)
• Piano di sviluppo della leadership (Iniziativa 32, Cluster C)

A livello locale (quindi per i progetti italiani ma anche per quelli regionali) gli ultimi due punti sono particolarmente interessanti per chi avesse iniziative di ricerca o di approfondimento sui temi, vi invito a leggere su meta le pagine relative alle sovvenzioni e a come e per cosa richiederle.

Con l'occasione vi ricordo che fino al 24 ottobre è ancora possibile votare per eleggere i membri del comitato di redazione della carta fondamentale del movimento Wikimedia (Movement Charter)

Grazie per l'attenzione e per domande e chiarimenti non esitate a contattarmi. --Civvi (WMF) (discussion) 21 di Otu 2021 a lis 12:10 (CEST)

Prossima richiesta di feedback sulle elezioni del Board of Trustees

Puoi trovare questo messaggio tradotto in altre lingue su Meta-wiki.

Altre lingue • Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Il Board of Trustees sta preparando una richiesta di feedback sulle prossime elezioni del Board, la richiesta avrà luogo dal 7 gennaio al 10 febbraio 2022.

I dettagli saranno completati durante la settimana prima della richiesta, due però sono le domande già confermate e che saranno poste durante questa richiesta di feedback:

• Qual è il modo migliore per assicurare, all'interno del Board of Trustees, un'equa rappresentanza delle comunità emergenti?

• Quale tipo di coinvolgimento dovrebbero avere i candidati durante le elezioni?

Altre domande potrebbero essere aggiunte, il team Movement Strategy and Governance vuole nel frattempo dare tempo ai membri della comunità e agli affiliati per riflettere e raccogliere idee su queste due domande già confermate. Ci scusiamo per il fatto di non avere già una lista completa di domande. La lista delle domande dovrebbe aumentare di poco, dovrebbero aggiungersene solo una o due. L'intenzione è quella di non sommergere la comunità di richieste, ma di fornire un congruo preavviso e iniziare a raccogliere feedback su queste questioni.

Vuoi contribuire ad organizzare una discussione locale durante questa richiesta di feedback?

Contatta il Movement Strategy and Governance team su Meta, su Telegram, o via email a msgwikimedia.org.

Contattateci se avete domande o perplessità. Il team Movement Strategy and Governance sarà a corto di personale fino al 3 gennaio. Vi preghiamo di scusare eventuali ritardi nelle risposte durante questo periodo. Siamo a conoscenza che anche alcuni membri della comunità e affiliati sono offline durante le vacanze di dicembre. Ci scusiamo se il nostro messaggio vi ha raggiunto mentre siete in vacanza.

Several improvements around templates

Hello, from March 9, several improvements around templates will become available on your wiki:

• Fundamental improvements of the VisualEditor template dialog (1, 2),
• Improvements to make it easier to put a template on a page (3) (for the template dialogs in VisualEditor, 2010 Wikitext and New Wikitext Mode),
• and improvements in the syntax highlighting extension CodeMirror (4, 5) (which is available on wikis with writing direction left-to-right).

All these changes are part of the “Templates” project by WMDE Technical Wishes. We hope they will help you in your work, and we would love to hear your feedback on the talk pages of these projects.

Proponi delle dichiarazioni per la bussola elettorale del 2022

Puoi trovare questo messaggio tradotto in altre lingue su Meta-wiki.

Altre lingue • Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Ciao a tutti,

I volontari sono invitati a proporre delle dichiarazioni da utilizzare nella bussola elettorale per le elezioni del Board of Trustees del 2022.

Una bussola elettorale è uno strumento nato per aiutare gli elettori a selezionare quei candidati che meglio si conformano alle loro convinzioni e opinioni. I membri della comunità proporranno delle dichiarazioni a cui i candidati risponderanno utilizzando una scala Lickert (d'accordo/neutrale/in disaccordo). Le risposte dei candidati a queste dichiarazioni verranno caricate nella bussola elettorale. Gli elettori utilizzeranno lo strumento inserendo le proprie risposte alle dichiarazioni (d'accordo/neutrale/in disaccordo). I risultati mostreranno quei candidati che meglio si allineano alle convinzioni e ai punti di vista dell'elettore.

Ecco il calendario della bussola elettorale

8 - 20 luglio: I volontari propongono le dichiarazioni per la bussola elettorale 21 - 22 luglio: Il Comitato elettorale rivede le dichiarazioni, assicurandosi che siano chiare, e rimuovendo quelle fuori tema 23 luglio - 1º agosto: I volontari votano le dichiarazioni 2 - 4 agosto: Il Comitato elettorale sceglie le 15 dichiarazioni più votate 5 - 12 agosto: I candidati danno il proprio parere sulle dichiarazioni 15 agosto: La bussola elettorale viene aperta all'utilizzo degli elettori al fine di aiutarli nella scelta del voto

Il Comitato elettorale sceglierà le 15 dichiarazioni più votate all'inizio di agosto. Il Comitato elettorale supervisionerà l'intero processo, supportato dal team Movement Strategy and Governance. MSG si assicurerà che le domande siano chiare, che non vi siano duplicati, refusi, o qualsiasi altro problema.

Cordiali saluti,

Movement Strategy and Governance

The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks?

The slides for our presentation at Wikimania 2022

Hello. I'm writing on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Web team. In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.

We have been working on it for the past three years. So far, it has been the default on more than 30 wikis, including sister projects, all accounting for more than 1 billion pageviews per month. On average 87% of active logged-in users of those wikis use Vector 2022.

It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy. Logged-in users can at any time switch to any other skins. No changes are expected for users of these skins.

• Top of an article
• 
  Vector legacy (current default)
• 
  Vector 2022

• A section of an article
• 
  Vector legacy (current default)
• 
  Vector 2022

About the skin

[Why is a change necessary] The current default skin meets the needs of the readers and editors as these were 13 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using Wikimedia projects. The old Vector doesn't meet their needs.

[Objective] The objective for the new skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It draws inspiration from previous requests, the Community Wishlist Surveys, and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. We reduced PHP code in Wikimedia deployed skins by 75%. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs.

[Changes and test results] The skin introduces a series of changes that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin.

• The sticky header makes it easier to find tools that editors use often. It decreases scrolling to the top of the page by 16%.
• The new table of contents makes it easier to navigate to different sections. Readers and editors jumped to different sections of the page 50% more than with the old table of contents. It also looks a bit different on talk pages.
• The new search bar is easier to find and makes it easier to find the correct search result from the list. This increased the amount of searches started by 30% on the wikis we tested on.
• The skin does not negatively affect pageviews, edit rates, or account creation. There is evidence of increases in pageviews and account creation across partner communities.

[Try it out] Try out the new skin by going to the appearance tab in your preferences and selecting Vector 2022 from the list of skins.

How can editors change and customize this skin?

It's possible to configure and personalize our changes. We support volunteers who create new gadgets and user scripts. Check out our repository for a list of currently available customizations, or add your own.

Our plan

If no large concerns are raised, we plan on deploying in the week of October 3, 2022. If your community would like to request more time to discuss the changes, hit the button and write to us. We can adjust the calendar.

Request for more time to discuss the change

If you'd like ask our team anything, if you have questions, concerns, or additional thoughts, please ping me here or write on the talk page of the project. We will gladly answer! Also, see our FAQ. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 22 di Set 2022 a lis 06:15 (CEST)

Il tema Vector 2022 di default tra due settimane?

Le slide della nostra presentazione a Wikimania 2022

Ciao, scrivo a nome del Web Team della Wikimedia Foundation. Tra due settimane, ci piacerebbe rendere Vector 2022 il tema di default di questo wiki.

Ci lavoriamo da tre anni. Finora è stato adottato da oltre 30 wiki, tra cui alcuni progetti fratelli Wikimedia, che nell'insieme rappresentano oltre un miliardo di accessi alle pagine al mese. In media l'87% degli utenti attivi connessi di questi wiki usa Vector 2022.

Diventerebbe di default per gli utenti non loggati e anche per gli utenti loggati che attualmente usano Vector Legacy (Vector 2010). Gli utenti loggati possono passare a qualunque altro tema in ogni momento. Nessun cambiamento è previsto per gli utenti di questi temi.

• In cima alla pagina
• 
  Vector Legacy (l'attuale tema di default)
• 
  Vector 2022

• Una sezione di una pagina
• 
  Vector Legacy (l'attuale tema di default)
• 
  Vector 2022

A proposito del tema

[Perché è un cambiamento necessario] L'attuale tema di default andava incontro ai bisogni dei lettori e dei contributori così com'erano 13 anni fa. Nel frattempo, nuovi utenti hanno iniziato a usare i progetti Wikimedia. Il vecchio Vector non soddisfa le loro aspettative.

[Obiettivo] Lo scopo del nuovo tema è di rendere l'interfaccia più accogliente e confortevole per i lettori e più funzionale per gli utenti esperti. Trae ispirazione sia da richieste precedenti che dal Sondaggio dei desideri della comunità, da gadgets e scripts. Questo lavoro ha permesso al nostro codice di rispettare gli standard ma anche di migliorare tutti gli altri temi. Abbiamo ridotto del 75% il codice PHP dei temi Wikimedia implementati. Il progetto si è impegnato anche nel facilitare il supporto ai gadget e all'uso delle API.

[Modifiche e risultati dei test] Il tema introduce una serie di cambiamenti che migliorano la leggibilità e l'usabilità. Nel nuovo tema non è stata eliminata nessuna funzionalità attualmente disponibile su Vector.

• L'header fisso rende più facile trovare gli strumenti che i contributori usano spesso. Diminuisce del 16% lo scorrimento verso l'alto della pagina.
• Il nuovo indice rende più facile navigare tra le diverse sezioni. I lettori e i contributori saltano da una sezione all'altra il 50% più spesso che con il vecchio indice. Anche le pagine di discussione hanno un aspetto leggermente diverso.
• La nuova barra di ricerca è più facile da individuare e rende più facile trovare il risultato corretto cercato a partire da una lista. Questo ha aumentato del 30% il volume delle ricerche effettuate sui wiki che abbiamo testato.
• Il tema non influenza negativamente il numero di accesso alle pagine, il tasso di modifiche, o la creazione di account. È anzi stato riscontrato un aumento delle pagine visitate e della creazione di account nelle comunità partner.

[Provalo] Prova il nuovo tema andando nella scheda "Aspetto" delle tue Preferenze e seleziona Vector 2022 nella lista dei temi.

Come fanno i contributori a modificare e a personalizzare questo tema?

È possibile configurare e personalizzare le nostre modifiche. Diamo supporto ai volontari che creano gadget e script utente. Consulta il nostro archivio per la lista delle personalizzazioni attualmente disponibli, o aggiungici le tue.

Il nostro piano

Se non vengono sollevate grosse problematiche, prevediamo di distribuire il tema nella settimana del 3 ottobre 2022. Se la vostra comunità desidera più tempo per discutere dei cambiamenti, premete il pulsante e scriveteci. Possiamo adattare il calendario.

Domanda di tempo supplementare
per discutere del cambiamento

Se vuoi chiedere al nostro team qualsiasi cosa, se hai domande, preoccupazioni o idee ulteriori, per favore notificami o scrivi nella pagina di discussione del progetto. Saremo lieti di risponderti! In aggiunta, puoi anche consultare le nostre FAQ. Grazie!

Update on Vector 2022

Hello. I'm sorry for not communicating in your language. I'll be grateful if you translated my message. I'm writing on behalf of the Web team working on the new skin, Vector 2022.

We wanted to apologize for the delays in the deployment of Vector 2022. We know many of you are waiting for this eagerly. We have been delaying the deployment because we have been working on the logos. It has taken us more time than originally expected. Once the logos are ready, we will let you know the exact date of deployment. We are planning for either the next (more likely) or the following week. If your wiki doesn't currently have a localized logo, we encourage you to reach out to us and we can help make one.

We invite you to get involved in the project. Contact us if you have any questions or need any help, particularly with the compatibility of gadgets and user scripts. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 20 di Otu 2022 a lis 01:24 (CEST)

Interfaccia desktop: ultime novità

Ciao, vi segnalo che le ultime novità del progetto delle Migliorie all'interfaccia desktop sono on line. Buona lettura! --Patafisik (WMF) (discussion) 4 di Zen 2023 a lis 19:39 (CET)

Migliorie all'interfaccia desktop: un nuovo cambiamento in arrivo

Ciao!

La prossima settimana il team Web di Wikimedia Foundation sposterà alcuni link della barra laterale a destra dello schermo.

Così sarà più facile utilizzare in modo intuitivo tutti i collegamenti e gli strumenti della nostra interfaccia. Con la barra laterale più corta, l'indice apparirà a sua volta più in alto sullo schermo. Quest'ultimo cambiamento sarà sigificativo soprattutto per i contributori, poiché i lettori usano il menu di sinistra molto più raramente.

Perché apportiamo questo cambiamento

Attualmente, la nostra interfaccia non fa distinzione tra collegamenti e strumenti che riguardano il wiki e collegamenti e strumenti che riguardano la pagina in sè. "Pagina principale", "Una voce a caso", "Ultime modifiche" fanno parte del primo gruppo. "Puntano qui", "Modifiche correlate", "Cita questa voce" appartengono al secondo. Questo mix confonde i nuovi lettori. Anche i nuovi contributori non hanno familiarità con ognuno di questi link e non sanno a cosa servono. Mescolando questi gruppi si rischia di demotivare le persone che sarebbero propense a scoprire spontaneamente questi strumenti.

Questa modifica risolve anche la questione della posizione del sommario. In precedenza alcuni contributori ci avevano fatto notare che il sommario sotto alla barra laterale lo faceva apparire troppo in basso nella pagina. Con questo cambiamento, il menu di sinistra (la barra laterale) diventa più corto e di conseguenza il sommario è visibile più in alto sulla pagina. Inoltre, questo cambiamento riduce lo spazio bianco sulla pagina, usandone di più per mostrare gli strumenti a destra.

Puoi saperne di più sulla funzionalità degli strumenti della pagina e il progetto delle Migliorie all'IU desktop su MediaWiki.org.

Compatibilità degli accessori

Alcuni accessori e script utente potrebbero aver bisogno di essere aggiornati o diventare obsoleti e ridondanti. Forniamo assistenza agli utenti che desiderano mantenere la compatibilità. Puoi visitare questa sezione della nostra documentazione per maggiori informazioni sulla compatibilità dei gadget.

Collaboriamo

• Iscriviti alla nostra newsletter per ricevere aggiornamenti regolari.
• Condividi le tue idee e fai domande sulla nostra pagina di discussione.
• Se noti dei malfunzionamenti, crea un nuovo task su Phabricator e aggiungi il tag Desktop Improvements (Vector 2022) o contattaci.

Come far apparire i link delle lingue in cima alla Home page

Ciao a tutti,

con la nuova interfaccia di default, Vector 2022, il pulsante delle lingue è finito in fondo alla home page, mentre nelle altre pagine si trova correttamente in alto, vedi perché. Questa eccezione della home page non piace a tutte le comunità Wikimedia. Si può risolvere aggiungendo "un titolo" ma solo con il consenso della vostra comunità.

Vi invito quindi a discutere se vi interessa avere i link delle lingue nello stesso posto delle altre pagine. Se la risposta è sì, dovreste decidere quale tra le due opzioni preferite: mostrare un messaggio di benvenuto (o un altro testo a votra scelta) come "titolo", sulla stessa linea del pulsante delle lingue, oppure non mettere nessun testo.

Copio-incollo un passaggio delle FAQ che potrebbe esservi utile per discutere, con qualche aggiunta:

• Il "titolo della pagina" sarà mostrato su Vector 2010, Minerva, Timeless e Vector 2022. Non sarà visibile su Monobook.
• Il "titolo" puo' essere modificato configurando MediaWiki:Mainpage-title-loggedin per gli utenti loggati e MediaWiki:Mainpage-title per per gli utenti non loggati. Per gli utenti loggati su mobile invece bisognerà modificare MediaWiki:wikimedia-mobile-mainpage-title-loggedin.
• Date un'occhiata a come appare la home page con i pulsante delle lingue in alto aggiungendo ?vectorlanguageinmainpageheader=1 alla fine dell'URL. La home page della Wikipedia basca mostra una frase di benvenuto nel titolo. E' la stessa scelta fatta anche dalla Wikipedia in francese, che sta aspettando il cambiamento. Potete anche guardare l'esempio della Wikipedia in islandese che non ha configurato nessun titolo, quindi si vedono solo le lingue.
• Se c'è consenso, pingatemi (o contattate il Web Team) per chiedere lo spostamento del pulsante delle lingue in alto, il team chiederà la modifica dei parametri del vostro wiki. Se preferite potete aprire direttamente un nuovo task su Phabricator, ma se volete un messaggio di benevuto basterà segnalare la vostra discussione in fondo al ticket T325362, aggiungendovi alla lista dei wiki che già richiedono il cambiamento. Una volta il cambiamento portato a termine, il pulsante delle lingue sarà visibile in alto alla home page del tema Vector 2022. Negli altri temi, la lista dei link delle lingue si troverà al suo posto di default, che è diverso per ogni tema.

Wikimedia Foundation sta effettuando test di passaggio tra il suo data center primario e quello secondario. Lo scopo è accertarsi che Wikipedia e le altre wiki Wikimedia riescano a rimanere online anche dopo un disastro. Al fine di garantire che tutto funzioni a dovere, il dipartimento tecnologico di Wikimedia ha bisogno di condurre un test programmato. Il test dimostrerà se è possibile passare da un data center all'altro in sicurezza. Diversi team si prepareranno per il test e saranno a disposizione per correggere qualsiasi problema imprevisto che si dovesse verificare.

Tutto il traffico sarà commutato il giorno 1 marzo. Il test avrà inizio alle 14:00 UTC.

Sfortunatamente, a causa di alcune limitazioni di MediaWiki, tutte le attività di modifica dovranno essere interrotte mentre si effettua il cambio. Ci scusiamo per il disagio, stiamo lavorando per minimizzarlo in futuro.

Sarai in grado di leggere, ma non di modificare, tutte le wiki per un breve periodo di tempo.

• Il giorno mercoledì 1 marzo 2023 non sarà possibile effettuare modifiche per al massimo un'ora.
• Se proverai a modificare o a salvare durante il periodo di sospensione, vedrai apparire un messaggio d'errore. Speriamo che nessuna modifica venga persa durante questi pochi minuti, ma non possiamo garantirlo. Se vedi apparire il messaggio di errore, per cortesia attendi fino a che non sia tornato tutto alla normalità. Da quel momento potrai salvare le tue modifiche. È comunque consigliabile fare prima una copia delle modifiche, per essere pronti a ogni eventualità.

Altre conseguenze:

• I processi in background saranno più lenti e alcuni potrebbero interrompersi. I link rossi potrebbero non essere aggiornati velocemente come al solito. Se crei una voce per cui esiste già un link entrante a partire da un'altra voce, il collegamento rimarrà rosso più a lungo del solito. Alcuni script in esecuzione di lunga durata dovranno essere fermati.
• La distribuzione del codice dovrebbe avvenire normalmente come le altre settimane. Tuttavia, alcuni blocchi nell'aggiornamento del codice potrebbero avvenire puntualmente se l'operazione lo dovesse richiedere in seguito.
• GitLab non sarà disponibile per circa 90 minuti.

Il progetto potrebbe essere posticipato se necessario. Puoi leggere la tabella di marcia su wikitech.wikimedia.org. Ogni cambiamento sarà annunciato nella tabella di marcia. Ci saranno ulteriori avvisi riguardo a questo test. Un banner apparirà su tutte le wiki 30 minuti prima dell'inizio dell'operazione. Per favore, condividi queste informazioni con la tua comunità.

Vector 2022: un cambiamento per gli utenti non connessi

Gli Strumenti della pagina quando il menu è chiuso (vedi cerchio rosso)

Ciao,

la settimana scorsa abbiamo reso disponibile il menu degli Strumenti della pagina per gli utenti non connessi. Per gli utenti loggati, il menu era già disponibile da gennaio 2023.

Il menu permette di distinguere gli strumenti relativi alla navigazione all'interno del wiki in generale dagli strumenti relativi ad una pagina specifica. Nel primo gruppo si trovano, ad esempio, "Pagina principale" e "Una voce a caso". Nel secondo gruppo ci sono, ad esempio, "Puntano qui", "Modifiche correlate" e "Cita questa voce". Inoltre, il nuovo menu riunisce gli strumenti specifici della pagina in un unico elenco. Prima alcuni di questi link si trovavano nel menu principale (barra laterale) o nel More Menu (di fianco alla Cronologia). Il nostro proposito è che i nuovi lettori e i nuovi contributori possano capire più facilmente a cosa servono questi link.

Il menu può essere appuntato (pinned) o meno, a seconda delle necessità dell'utente. Quando è aperto è anche fisso sulla pagina, ossia rimane nella stessa posizione sullo schermo quando si scorre verso il basso. Inoltre, per gli utenti connessi il menu è anche permanente, ossia il menu resta nello stato voluto (aperto, chiuso o appuntato) quando si aggiorna la pagina o se ne apre una nuova. Per gli utenti non connessi invece il menu non è permanente. Speriamo di rendere disponibile questa caratteristica in futuro anche per loro.

Con questo cambiamento si ha anche il vantaggio che l'indice è mostrato più in alto sulla pagina. Solo raramente si deve scorrere la pagina per poter consultare l'indice. Questa è una delle preoccupazioni a cui abbiamo dato ascolto negli ultimi giorni e speriamo che questo risolva la questione.

Un WikiBooks di friulano

Mandi amici del Friuli. Mi stupisce che la vostra enciclopedia sia poco sviluppata, e temo che ci sia anche un problema di informazione (che dovremmo risolvere in collaborazione con WMI e le rispettive entità linguistiche), ma forse anche di accessibilità.

Con la comunità di lmowiki abbiamo sviluppato un bel WikiLibro che, seppur in costruzione, ha favorito l'arrivo di alcuni utenti sull'Enciclopedia. Vi andrebbe di sviluppare, eventualmente col nostro aiuto, un manuale simile? -- Sciking (discussion) 21 di Avr 2023 a lis 17:19 (CEST)

As follow-up to the message about the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines by Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Vice Chair, Shani Evenstein Sigalov, I am reaching out about the next steps. I want to bring your attention to the next stage of the Universal Code of Conduct process, which is forming a building committee for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C). I invite community members with experience and deep interest in community health and governance to nominate themselves to be part of the U4C building committee, which needs people who are:

• Community members in good standing
• Knowledgeable about movement community processes, such as, but not limited to, policy drafting, participatory decision making, and application of existing rules and policies on Wikimedia projects
• Aware and appreciative of the diversity of the movement, such as, but not limited to, languages spoken, identity, geography, and project type
• Committed to participate for the entire U4C Building Committee period from mid-May - December 2023
• Comfortable with engaging in difficult, but productive conversations
• Confidently able to communicate in English

The Building Committee shall consist of volunteer community members, affiliate board or staff, and Wikimedia Foundation staff.

The Universal Code of Conduct has been a process strengthened by the skills and knowledge of the community and I look forward to what the U4C Building Committee creates. If you are interested in joining the Building Committee, please either sign up on the Meta-Wiki page, or contact ucocprojectwikimedia.org by May 12, 2023. Read more on Meta-Wiki.

Separazione delle aree del layout (Zebra #9): presto un nuovo test A/B

Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Ciao !

Presto il Web Team effettuerà un nuovo test A/B. Questo test inizierà entro due settimane e si svolgerà su alcuni wiki, per due settimane piene. Si svolgerà sulle Wikipedie in inglese, persiano, francese, ebraico, coreano, portoghese, serbo, tailandese, turco e vietnamita.

La metà degli utenti desktop connessi vedranno una versione con le aree del layout separate in maniera più chiara. Questa versione include l'aggiunta dei bordi e dello sfondo grigio. Dopo due settimane, tutti vedranno di nuovo l'interfaccia attuale con lo sfondo bianco. Analizzeremo i dati sull'uso di entrambe le versioni e prenderemo una decisione sul da farsi a luglio.

Per maggiori informazioni clicca qui. Lasciaci i tuoi commenti su questa pagina di discussione del progetto delle Migliorie all'interfaccia desktop.

MinT Machine Translation enabled and plans to deploy Content and Section Translation to Friulian Wikipedia

Ciao Friulian Wikipedians!

Apologies as this message is not in your language, ⧼Please help translate⧽ to your language.

The WMF Language team has added a machine translation (MT) system supporting Content Translation for the first time in your Wikipedia called MinT; you can use MinT machine translation when translating Wikipedia articles using the Content Translation tool.

The WMF Language team provides the MinT service. It is hosted in the Wikimedia Foundation Infrastructure with neural machine translation models that other organizations have released with an open-source license. MinT integrates translation based on NLLB-200 and OpusMT and will replace those as separate options. This MT will be set as default in your Wikipedia. Still, you can choose not to use it by selecting "Start with empty paragraph" from the "Initial Translation" dropdown menu.

Since MinT is hosted in the WMF Infrastructure and the models are open source, it adheres to Wikipedia's policies about attribution of rights, your privacy as a user and brand representation. You can find more information about the MinT Machine translation and the models on this page.

Please note that the use of the MinT MT is not compulsory. However, we would want your community to:

• use it to improve the quality of the Machine Translation service
• please provide feedback about the service and its quality, and ask questions about this addition.

Plans to deploy the Content and Section translation tool

Now that you have Machine Translation support in your Wikipedia, We will enable the Content and Section translation by default to your Wikipedia if there are no objections from your community.

The Section Translation extends the capabilities of Content Translation to support mobile devices. On mobile, the tool will:

• Guide you to translate one section at a time in order to expand existing articles or create new ones
• Make it easy to transfer knowledge across languages anytime from your mobile device

After enabling it, we’ll monitor the content created with the tools and process all the feedback. In any case, feel free to try the current implementation of the Section Translation tool in our testing instance and raise any concerns or questions you may already have as a reply to this message or on the project talk page  

We trust that introducing this MT is a good support to the Content and Section Translation tool once it is enabled.

Thank you!

Review the Charter for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee

Altre lingue • Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Hello all,

I am pleased to share the next step in the Universal Code of Conduct work. The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) draft charter is now ready for your review.

The Enforcement Guidelines require a Building Committee form to draft a charter that outlines procedures and details for a global committee to be called the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C). Over the past few months, the U4C Building Committee worked together as a group to discuss and draft the U4C charter. The U4C Building Committee welcomes feedback about the draft charter now through 22 September 2023. After that date, the U4C Building Committee will revise the charter as needed and a community vote will open shortly afterward.

Join the conversation during the conversation hours or on Meta-wiki.

Best,

Coming soon: Reference Previews

A new feature is coming to your wiki soon: Reference Previews are popups for references. Such popups have existed on wikis as local gadgets for many years. Now there is a central solution, available on all wikis, and consistent with the PagePreviews feature.

Reference Previews will be visible to everyone, including readers. If you don’t want to see them, you can opt out. If you are using the gadgets Reference Tooltips or Navigation Popups, you won’t see Reference Previews unless you disable the gadget.

Reference Previews have been a beta feature on many wikis since 2019, and a default feature on some since 2021. Deployment is planned for November 22.

Feminism and Folklore 2024

Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Dear Wiki Community,

You are humbly invited to organize the Feminism and Folklore 2024 writing competition from February 1, 2023, to March 31, 2023 on your local Wikipedia. This year, Feminism and Folklore will focus on feminism, women's issues, and gender-focused topics for the project, with a Wiki Loves Folklore gender gap focus and a folk culture theme on Wikipedia.

You can help Wikipedia's coverage of folklore from your area by writing or improving articles about things like folk festivals, folk dances, folk music, women and queer folklore figures, folk game athletes, women in mythology, women warriors in folklore, witches and witch hunting, fairy tales, and more. Users can help create new articles, expand or translate from a generated list of suggested articles.

Organisers are requested to work on the following action items to sign up their communities for the project:

1. Create a page for the contest on the local wiki.
2. Set up a campaign on CampWiz tool.
3. Create the local list and mention the timeline and local and international prizes.
4. Request local admins for site notice.
5. Link the local page and the CampWiz link on the meta project page.

This year, the Wiki Loves Folklore Tech Team has introduced two new tools to enhance support for the campaign. These tools include the Article List Generator by Topic and CampWiz. The Article List Generator by Topic enables users to identify articles on the English Wikipedia that are not present in their native language Wikipedia. Users can customize their selection criteria, and the tool will present a table showcasing the missing articles along with suggested titles. Additionally, users have the option to download the list in both CSV and wikitable formats. Notably, the CampWiz tool will be employed for the project for the first time, empowering users to effectively host the project with a jury. Both tools are now available for use in the campaign. Click here to access these tools

Learn more about the contest and prizes on our project page. Feel free to contact us on our meta talk page or by email us if you need any assistance.

We look forward to your immense coordination.

Thank you and Best wishes,

Buongiorno,

vi scrivo per fornirvi due informazioni importanti. In primo luogo è ora disponibile la relazione sui commenti sulla la ratifica del regolamento del Comitato di coordinamento del codice universale di condotta (U4C). In secondo luogo, fino al 1° aprile 2024 è aperto l'invito a presentare candidature per lo U4C.

Il Comitato di coordinamento del codice universale di condotta (U4C) è un comitato globale il cui scopo è quello di provvedere all'attuazione coerente ed equa del codice universale di condotta. I volontari delle comunità dei progetti sono invitati a presentare le loro candidature per il comitato U4C. Per maggiori informazioni sulle responsabilità dello U4C, vi invito a fare riferimento al regolamento del comitato U4C.

Da regolamento di sono 16 posti: otto sono a disposizione per le comunità in senso ampio e 8 sono a carattere regionale in modo da assicurare che il comitato rappresenti la diversità del movimento.

Maggiori informazioni e come presentare la candidatura si trovano su Meta-wiki.

Selezione del 2024 dei membri del Board di Wikimedia Foundation

Potete trovare questo messaggio tradotto in altre lingue su Meta-wiki.

Altre lingue • Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Buongiorno,

Quest'anno termina il mandato di 4 (quattro) dei membri del Board di Wikimedia Foundation scelti dalla comunità e dagli affiliati [1]. Il Board invita tutto il movimento a partecipare al processo di selezione di quest'anno e a votare per trovare dei membri per questi seggi.

Il comitato elettorale supervisionerà questo processo con il supporto del personale di Wikimedia Foundation [2]. Il Comitato per la governance del Board ha creato un gruppo di lavoro per la selezione del Board, il gruppo è composto da Dariusz Jemielniak, Nataliia Tymkiv, Esra'a Al Shafei, Kathy Collins e Shani Evenstein Sigalov, che non possono essere candidati al processo di selezione degli amministratori della comunità e degli affiliati per il 2024 [3]. Il gruppo ha il compito di supervisionare il processo di selezione dei membri del Board per il 2024 e di tenere informato il Board. Maggiori dettagli sui ruoli del Comitato elettorale, del Board e dello staff sono disponibili qui [4].

Di seguito il calendario pianificato:

• Maggio 2024: Invito a presentare candidature e domande
• Giugno 2024: Gli affiliati votano per la pre-selezione di 12 candidati (non vi sarà pre-selezione se si presentano 15 o meno candidati) [5].
• Giugno-agosto 2024: campagna elettorale
• Fine agosto/inizio settembre 2024: due settimane di votazione comunitaria
• Ottobre-novembre 2024: Controllo del background dei candidati selezionati
• Riunione del Board nel dicembre 2024: entrata in carica dei nuovi amministratori

Per saperne di più sul processo di selezione per il 2024 - compresa la tempistica dettagliata, il processo di candidatura, le regole della campagna e i criteri di eleggibilità degli elettori - si può consultare la questa pagina Meta-wiki.

Volontari delle elezioni

Un altro modo per partecipare al processo di selezione del 2024 è quello di essere un volontario elettorale. I volontari elettorali sono un ponte tra il comitato elettorale e la rispettiva comunità. Aiutano a garantire che la loro comunità sia rappresentata e la mobilitano a votare. Per saperne di più sul programma e sulle modalità di adesione, consultare questa pagina su meta-wiki.

Cordiali saluti,

[3] https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Minutes:2023-08-15#Governance_Committee

[4] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_committee/Roles

[5] Anche se il numero ideale è di 12 candidati per 4 seggi aperti, il processo di pre-selezione verrà attivato se ci sono più di 15 candidati, perché gli 1-3 candidati che vengono eliminati potrebbero sentirsi esclusi e sarebbe molto faticoso per gli affiliati portare avanti il processo di pre-selezione per eliminare solo 1-3 candidati dalla lista dei candidati.

La tua wiki presto sarà in modalità solo lettura

Leggi questo messaggio in un'altra lingua • Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua

Wikimedia Foundation scambierà il traffico tra i suoi data center. Lo scopo è accertarsi che Wikipedia e le altre wiki Wikimedia riescano a rimanere online anche dopo un disastro.

Tutto il traffico sarà commutato il giorno 20 marzo. Il test avrà inizio alle 14:00 UTC.

Sfortunatamente, a causa di alcune limitazioni di MediaWiki, tutte le attività di modifica dovranno essere interrotte mentre si effettua il cambio. Ci scusiamo per il disagio, stiamo lavorando per minimizzarlo in futuro.

Sarai in grado di leggere, ma non di modificare, tutte le wiki per un breve periodo di tempo.

• Il giorno mercoledì 20 marzo 2024 non sarà possibile effettuare modifiche per al massimo un'ora.
• Se proverai a modificare o a salvare durante il periodo di sospensione, vedrai apparire un messaggio d'errore. Speriamo che nessuna modifica venga persa durante questi pochi minuti, ma non possiamo garantirlo. Se vedi apparire il messaggio di errore, per cortesia attendi fino a che non sia tornato tutto alla normalità. Da quel momento potrai salvare le tue modifiche. È comunque consigliabile fare prima una copia delle modifiche, per essere pronti a ogni eventualità.

Altre conseguenze:

• I processi in background saranno più lenti e alcuni potrebbero interrompersi. I link rossi potrebbero non essere aggiornati velocemente come al solito. Se crei una voce per cui esiste già un link entrante a partire da un'altra voce, il collegamento rimarrà rosso più a lungo del solito. Alcuni script in esecuzione di lunga durata dovranno essere fermati.
• La distribuzione del codice dovrebbe avvenire normalmente come le altre settimane. Tuttavia, alcuni blocchi nell'aggiornamento del codice potrebbero avvenire puntualmente se l'operazione lo dovesse richiedere in seguito.
• GitLab non sarà disponibile per circa 90 minuti.

Il progetto potrebbe essere posticipato se necessario. Puoi leggere la tabella di marcia su wikitech.wikimedia.org. Ogni cambiamento sarà annunciato nella tabella di marcia. Ci saranno ulteriori avvisi riguardo a questo test. Un banner apparirà su tutte le wiki 30 minuti prima dell'inizio dell'operazione. Per favore, condividi queste informazioni con la tua comunità.

Cos'è la carta fondamentale del movimento Wikimedia?

La carta fondamentale del movimento Wikimedia è un documento proposto per definire i ruoli e le responsabilità di tutti i membri e le entità del movimento Wikimedia, compresa la creazione di un nuovo organismo - il consiglio globale - per la governance del movimento.

Unisciti al "Launch Party" della carta fondamentale del movimento

Cleaning up files

Hello! Sorry to write in English. According to wmf:Resolution:Licensing_policy all files need a valid license. Files without a license should be deleted. If the files are non-free they need a valid fair use rationale and they are only allowed in article namespace. Also non-free files that are not in use should be deleted. So I suggest to check and probably delete the files in Speciâl:FigurisNoDopradis.

But there are also files that are in use but have no license template. Example Figure:Ascensione.jpg. According to Speciâl:Statistichis there are 318 files on fur.wikipedia. So someone have to check the files manually.

I also noticed that Template:GFDL have disclaimers. Disclaimers are not good per en:Wikipedia:GFDL standardization. So it would be good to create Template:GFDL-with-desclaimers and then change the license on all files that use GFDL to GFDL-with-disclaimers unless the uploader agree to remove the disclaimers.

Also all files should have a source and an author. The author is the name of the creator/photographer/copyright holder. The source is a description of where the uploader got the file. If I have taken a photo with my camera and upload it the source is "own work" and the author is "MGA73". If I found the file on the internet the source is the URL.

If the uploader is no longer active it is very likely that the only option is to delete the file.

If you have questions or comments you are welcome to ping me. --MGA73 (discussion) 17 di Jug 2024 a lis 15:51 (CEST)

Hello all,

A special election has been called to fill additional vacancies on the U4C. The call for candidates phase is open from now through July 19, 2024.

The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) is a global group dedicated to providing an equitable and consistent implementation of the UCoC. Community members are invited to submit their applications in the special election for the U4C. For more information and the responsibilities of the U4C, please review the U4C Charter.

No more than two members of the U4C can be elected from the same home wiki. Therefore, candidates must not have English Wikipedia, German Wikipedia, or Italian Wikipedia as their home wiki.

As communicated by the Charter Electoral Commission, we reached the quorum for both Affiliate and individual votes by the time the vote closed on July 9, 23:59 UTC. We thank all 2,451 individuals and 129 Affiliate representatives who voted in the ratification process. Your votes and comments are invaluable for the future steps in Movement Strategy.

The final results of the Wikimedia Movement Charter ratification voting held between 25 June and 9 July 2024 are as follows:

Because the neutral votes don’t count towards the total number of votes cast, 73.30% voted to approve the Charter (1710/2333), while 26.70% voted to reject the Charter (623/2333).

Affiliates vote:

Out of 129 Affiliates designated voters who voted as of July 9 23:59 (UTC), 129 votes are confirmed as valid votes. Among these, 93 voted “yes”; 18 voted “no”; and 18 selected “–” (neutral). Because the neutral votes don’t count towards the total number of votes cast, 83.78% voted to approve the Charter (93/111), while 16.22% voted to reject the Charter (18/111).

Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation:

The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees voted not to ratify the proposed Charter during their special Board meeting on July 8, 2024. The Chair of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees, Nataliia Tymkiv, shared the result of the vote, the resolution, meeting minutes and proposed next steps.  

With this, the Wikimedia Movement Charter in its current revision is not ratified.

We thank you for your participation in this important moment in our movement’s governance.

Hello. For many years, community members have requested an easy way to re-use references with different details. Now, a MediaWiki solution is coming: The new sub-referencing feature will work for wikitext and Visual Editor and will enhance the existing reference system. You can continue to use different ways of referencing, but you will probably encounter sub-references in articles written by other users. More information on the project page.

We want your feedback to make sure this feature works well for you:

• Please try the current state of development on beta wiki and let us know what you think.
• Sign up here to get updates and/or invites to participate in user research activities.

Wikimedia Deutschland’s Technical Wishes team is planning to bring this feature to Wikimedia wikis later this year. We will reach out to creators/maintainers of tools and templates related to references beforehand.

Grazie a tutti coloro che hanno partecipato all'elezione 2024 del Board of Trustees della Wikimedia Foundation. Hanno votato circa 6000 membri delle comunità di oltre 180 progetti.

I seguenti quattro candidati hanno ottenuto il maggior numero di voti:

1. Christel Steigenberger
2. Maciej Artur Nadzikiewicz
3. Victoria Doronina
4. Lorenzo Losa

Anche se questi candidati hanno ottenuto il maggior numero di voti nell'elezione devono ancora essere nominati nel Board of Trustees. Devono superare un controllo dei precedenti e soddisfare le qualifiche indicate nel Regolamento. I nuovi membri del Board saranno nominati alla prossima riunione del Board, nel dicembre 2024.

L'annuncio completo si trova su Meta-Wiki

Cordiali saluti,

'Wikidata item' link is moving, finally.

Hello everyone, I previously wrote on the 27th September to advise that the Wikidata item sitelink will change places in the sidebar menu, moving from the General section into the In Other Projects section. The scheduled rollout date of 04.10.2024 was delayed due to a necessary request for Mobile/MinervaNeue skin. I am happy to inform that the global rollout can now proceed and will occur later today, 22.10.2024 at 15:00 UTC-2. Please let us know if you notice any problems or bugs after this change. There should be no need for null-edits or purging cache for the changes to occur. Kind regards, -Danny Benjafield (WMDE) 22 di Otu 2024 a lis 13:29 (CEST)

Proposal to enable the "Contribute" entry point in Friulian Wikipedia

Ciao Friulian Wikipedians,

Apologies as this message is not in your language. Aiutaci a tradurre nella tua lingua.

The WMF Language and Product Localization team proposes enabling an entry point called "Contribute" to your Wikipedia.

The Contribute entry point is based on collaborative work with other product teams in the Wikimedia Foundation on Edit discovery, which validated the entry point as a persistent and constant path that contributors took to discover ways to contribute content in Wikipedia.

Therefore, enabling this entry point in your Wikipedia will help contributors quickly discover available tools and immediately click to start using them. This entry point is designed to be a central point for discovering contribution tools in Friulian Wikipedia.

Who can access it

Once it is enabled in your Wikipedia, newcomers can access the entry point automatically by just logging into their account, click on the User drop-down menu and choose the "Contribute" icon, which takes you to another menu where you will find a self-guided description of what you can do to contribute content, as shown in the image below. An option to "view contributions" is also available to access the list of your contributions.

For experienced contributors, the Contribute icon is not automatically shown in their User drop-down menu. They will still see the "Contributions" option unless they change it to the "Contribute" manually.

This feature is available in four Wikipedia (Albanian, Malayalam, Mongolian, and Tagalog). We have gotten valuable feedback that helped us improve its discoverability. Now, it is ready to be enabled in other Wikis. One major improvement was to make the entry point optional for experienced contributors who still want to have the "Contributions" entry point as default.          

We plan to enable it on mobile for Wikis, where the Section translation tool is enabled. In this way, we will provide a main entry point to the mobile translation dashboard, and the exposure can still be limited by targeting only the mobile platform for now. If there are no objections to having the entry point for mobile users from your community, we will enable it by 20th November 2024.

We welcome your feedback and questions in this thread on our proposal to enable it here. Suppose there are no objections, we will deploy the "Contribute" entry point in your Wikipedia.

We look forward to your response soon.

Thank you!
