Start of the 2017 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees elections

Please accept our apologies for cross-posting this message. This message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki.

On behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee, I am pleased to announce that self-nominations are being accepted for the 2017 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Elections.

The Board of Trustees (Board) is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long-term sustainability of the Wikimedia Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. More information about this role can be found on Meta-Wiki. Please read the letter from the Board of Trustees calling for candidates.

The candidacy submission phase will last from April 7 (00:00 UTC) to April 20 (23:59 UTC).

We will also be accepting questions to ask the candidates from April 7 to April 20. You can submit your questions on Meta-Wiki.

Once the questions submission period has ended on April 20, the Elections Committee will then collate the questions for the candidates to respond to beginning on April 21.

The goal of this process is to fill the three community-selected seats on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. The election results will be used by the Board itself to select its new members.

The full schedule for the Board elections is as follows. All dates are inclusive, that is, from the beginning of the first day (UTC) to the end of the last.

• April 7 (00:00 UTC) – April 20 (23:59 UTC) – Board nominations
• April 7 – April 20 – Board candidates questions submission period
• April 21 – April 30 – Board candidates answer questions
• May 1 – May 14 – Board voting period
• May 15–19 – Board vote checking
• May 20 – Board result announcement goal

In addition to the Board elections, we will also soon be holding elections for the following roles:

• Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)
  • There are five positions being filled. More information about this election will be available on Meta-Wiki.

• Funds Dissemination Committee Ombudsperson (Ombuds)
  • One position is being filled. More information about this election will be available on Meta-Wiki.

Please note that this year the Board of Trustees elections will be held before the FDC and Ombuds elections. Candidates who are not elected to the Board are explicitly permitted and encouraged to submit themselves as candidates to the FDC or Ombuds positions after the results of the Board elections are announced.

More information on this year's elections can be found on Meta-Wiki. Any questions related to the election can be posted on the election talk page on Meta-Wiki, or sent to the election committee's mailing list, board-electionswikimedia.org.

On behalf of the Election Committee,
Katie Chan, Chair, Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee

The Wikimedia Foundation will be testing its secondary data center in Dallas. 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 conduct a planned test. This test will show whether they can reliably switch from one data center 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, 19 April 2017. On Wednesday, 3 May 2017, they will switch back to the primary data center.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop during those two switches. 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 approximately 20 to 30 minutes on Wednesday, 19 April and Wednesday, 3 May. 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 20 April and Thursday 4 May).
• 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 17 April 2017 and 1 May 2017. 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:Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk)

Wikidata description editing in the Wikipedia Android app

Wikidata description editing is a new experiment being rolled out on the Wikipedia app for Android. While this primarily impacts Wikidata, the changes are also addressing a concern about the mobile versions of Wikipedia, so that mobile users will be able to edit directly the descriptions shown under the title of the page and in the search results.

We began by rolling out this feature several weeks ago to a pilot group of Wikipedias (Russian, Hebrew, and Catalan), and have seen very positive results including numerous quality contributions in the form of new and updated descriptions, and a low rate of vandalism.

We are now ready for the next phase of rolling out this feature, which is to enable it in a few days for all Wikipedias except the top ten by usage within the app (i.e. except English, German, Italian, French, Spanish, Japanese, Dutch, Portuguese, Turkish, and Chinese). We will enable the feature for those languages instead at some point in the future, as we closely monitor user engagement with our expanded set of pilot communities. As always, if have any concerns, please reach out to us on wiki at the talk page for this project or by email at reading@wikimedia.org. Thanks!

New Page previews feature

New Page previews feature

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

Hello,

The Reading web team at the Wikimedia Foundation has been working to enable Page previews, a beta feature known previously as Hovercards, as opt-in behavior for logged-in users and the default behavior for logged-out users across Wikipedia projects. Page previews provide a preview of any linked article, giving readers a quick understanding of a related article without leaving the current page. For this project, we are expecting to collect feedback over the following few weeks and tentatively enable the feature in early May, 2017.

A quick note on the implementation:

• For logged-in users who are not currently testing out the beta feature, Page previews will be off by default. Users may turn them on from their user preferences page.
• For logged-out users, the feature will be on by default. Users may disable it at any time by selecting the setting cog available in each preview.
• For users of the Navigation popups gadget, you will not be able to turn on the Page previews feature while using navigational popups. If you would like to try out the Page preview feature, make sure to first turn Navigation popups off prior to turning Page previews on.

You can read more about the feature and the tests we used to evaluate performance, try it out by enabling it from the beta features page, and leave feedback or questions on the talk page.

Thank you, MediaWiki message delivery (ciciarade) 18:52, 19 Avr 2017 (CEST)

Beta Feature Two Column Edit Conflict View

From May 9, the Two Column Edit Conflict View will be available as a beta feature on all wikis. The Two Column Edit Conflict View is a new interface for the edit conflict resolution page. It highlights differences between the editor's and the conflicting changes to make it easy to copy and paste pieces of the text and resolve the conflict. The feature fulfils a request for a more user-friendly edit conflict resolution from the German Community’s Technical Wishlist. Everyone is invited to test the feature and we hope that it will serve you well!

Editing News #1—2017

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

Did you know?

Did you know that you can review your changes visually?

When you are finished editing the page, type your edit summary and then choose "Contròla i cambiamèncc che te g'hét fat".

In visual mode, you will see additions, removals, new links, and formatting highlighted. Other changes, such as changing the size of an image, are described in notes on the side.

Click the toggle button to switch between visual and wikitext diffs.

The wikitext diff is the same diff tool that is used in the wikitext editors and in the page history. 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 VisualEditor Team has spent most of their time supporting the 2017 wikitext editor mode which is available inside the visual editor as a Beta Feature, and adding the new visual diff tool. Their workboard is available in Phabricator. You can find links to the work finished each week at mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings. Their current priorities are fixing bugs, supporting the 2017 wikitext editor as a beta feature, and improving the visual diff tool.

Recent changes

• A new wikitext editing mode is available as a Beta Feature on desktop devices. The 2017 wikitext editor has the same toolbar as the visual editor and can use the citoid service and other modern tools. Go to Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures to enable the Nuova modalità wikitesto.
• A new visual diff tool is available in VisualEditor's visual mode. You can toggle between wikitext and visual diffs. More features will be added to this later. In the future, this tool may be integrated into other MediaWiki components. [1]
• The team have added multi-column support for lists of footnotes. The <references /> block can automatically display long lists of references in columns on wide screens. This makes footnotes easier to read. You can request multi-column support for your wiki. [2]
• You can now use your web browser's function to switch typing direction in the new wikitext mode. This is particularly helpful for RTL language users like Urdu or Hebrew who have to write JavaScript or CSS. You can use Command+Shift+X or Control+Shift+X to trigger this. [3]
• The way to switch between the visual editing mode and the wikitext editing mode is now consistent. There is a drop-down menu that shows the two options. This is now the same in desktop and mobile web editing, and inside things that embed editing, such as Flow. [4]
• The Categurie item has been moved to the top of the Opzioni pagina menu (from clicking on the "hamburger" icon) for quicker access. [5] There is also now a "Templates used on this page" feature there. [6]
• You can now create <chem> tags (sometimes used as <ce>) for chemical formulas inside the visual editor. [7]
• Tables can be set as collapsed or un-collapsed. [8]
• The Caràter speciàl menu now includes characters for Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics and angle quotation marks (‹› and ⟨⟩) . The team thanks the volunteer developer, Tpt. [9]
• A bug caused some section edit conflicts to blank the rest of the page. This has been fixed. The team are sorry for the disruption. [10]
• There is a new keyboard shortcut for citations: Control+Shift+K on a PC, or Command+Shift+K on a Mac. It is based on the keyboard shortcut for making links, which is Control+K or Command+K respectively. [11]

Future changes

• The team is working on a syntax highlighting tool. It will highlight matching pairs of <ref> tags and other types of wikitext syntax. You will be able to turn it on and off. It will first become available in VisualEditor's built-in wikitext mode, maybe late in 2017. [12]
• The kind of button used to Famm vedè prima, Famm vedè i cambiament, and finish an edit will change in all WMF-supported wikitext editors. The new buttons will use OOjs UI. The buttons will be larger, brighter, and easier to read. The labels will remain the same. You can test the new button by editing a page and adding &ooui=1 to the end of the URL, like this: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Sandbox?action=edit&ooui=1 The old appearance will no longer be possible, even with local CSS changes. [13]
• The outdated 2006 wikitext editor will be removed later this year. It is used by approximately 0.03% of active editors. See a list of editing tools on mediawiki.org if you are uncertain which one you use. [14]
• 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, so that we can notify you when the next issue is ready. Grazie!

Interreg Italia-Svizzera/3

Nel luglio del 2016 e poi nel settembre dello stesso anno avevo riferito del sogno di partecipare al Bando Interreg Italia-Svizzera. Come tanti altri bandi europei la dotazione finanziaria è molto ricca , ma vincerla è tutt'altro paio di maniche perchè la concorrenza è troppo agguerrita. Qualche passo avanti è stato fatto: è stato presentata una manifestazione di interesse: si è deciso di concentrarsi solo su due filoni: oltre agli itinerari ladini ci sono gli itinerari celtici intesi in senso temporale molto lato dalla civiltà di Golasecca fino alla conquista romana dell'Insubria. Per rispettare le regole del bando si dovrà tener conto non solo dei discorsi culturali, ma anche di come farli conoscere al grosso pubblico e come valorizzarli al fine di suscitare un interesse turistico, comprese le gite scolastiche e gli itinerari didattici. Un breve riassunto della tematiche su wikiversità Non è detto che alla fine arriverà danaro (la concorrenza è troppa), ma credo che solo parlare di certi temi non può che fare bene. Molti di voi, sicuramente, conoscono l'argomento molto bene. Si accettano perciò tutti i suggerimenti. Molto del materiale che sarà raccolto potrà essere utile a voi per voci in lingua lombarda. Da parte mia prometto, se la cosa suscita interesse, di dare un costante aggiornamento sull'evoluzione, speriamo positiva.Mizardellorsa (ciciarade) 21:24, 12 Mag 2017 (CEST)

Prototype for editing Wikidata infoboxes on Wikipedia

Hello,

I’m sorry for writing in English. It’d be great if someone could translate this message if necessary.

One of the most requested features for Wikidata is to enable editing of Wikidata’s data directly from Wikipedia, so the editors can continue their workflow without switching websites.

The Wikidata development team has been working on a tool to achieve this goal: fill and edit the Wikipedia infoboxes with information from Wikidata, directly on Wikipedia, via the Visual Editor.

We already asked for feedback in 2015, and collected some interesting ideas which we shared with you in this thesis. Now we would like to present to you our first prototype and collect your feedback, in order to improve and continue the development of this feature.

We present this work to you very early, so we can include your feedback before and all along the development. You are the core users of this feature, so we want to make sure that it fits your needs and editing processes.

You will find the prototype, description of the features, and a demo video, on this page. Feel free to add any comment or feedback on the talk page. The page is currently not translated in every languages, but you can add your contribution by helping to translate it.

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to follow all the discussions on Wikipedia, so if you want to be sure that your feedback is read, please add it on the Wikidata page, in your favorite language. Thanks for your understanding.

Thanks, Lea Lacroix (WMDE)

RevisionSlider

RevisionSlider will be available as a default feature for all users on all wikis from May 17. The RevisionSlider adds a slider view to the diff page so that you can easily move between revisions. The slider view is collapsed by default, and will load by clicking on it. It can also be turned off entirely in the user preferences. RevisionSlider has been a default feature on German, Arabic and Hebrew Wikipedia for 6 months and a beta feature on all wikis for 8 months. The feature fulfills a wish from the German Community’s Technical Wishlist. Thanks to everyone who tested RevisionSlider and gave valuable feedback to improve the feature! We hope that RevisionSlider will continue to serve you well in your work.

Lombard Input Method

Finalmente dopo un bel po' di tempo s'è concluso l'iter per quello piemontese, dunque, se siete interessati, si potrebbe riprendere questa vecchia discussione...--GatoSelvadego (ciciarade) 17:31, 4 Giü 2017 (CEST)

A me va bene. I nostri caratteri speciali sono ô, ö, ü e ç. --Sciking (dìmm tuscòss) 18:21, 4 Giü 2017 (CEST)

Beh, la ç c'è su tutte le tastiere. Per il resto appena la piemontese entra in funzione vediamo come va e poi si agisce di conseguenza.--GatoSelvadego (ciciarade) 18:26, 4 Giü 2017 (CEST)

Servirebbero anche la ó, la œ e la ï (usata nella grafia del ducato, anche se solo in una manciata di parole). Tutte sia maiuscole che minuscole. --Glz19 (ciciarade) 18:51, 4 Giü 2017 (CEST)

Intanto se volete potete provare quello piemontese, che qualcuno dei caratteri che serve anche a voi c'è (ö, ü, ó - maiuscole e minuscolo) e così vediamo se va bene anche a voi quelle combinazioni di tasti per generarle (le dieresi si fanno battendo : prima della lettera, tipo così: :e; mentre per la ó i piemontesi hanno optato per ,o - NdA noi veneti invece per una doppia ò)...--GatoSelvadego (ciciarade) 00:33, 11 Giü 2017 (CEST)

Ho fatto qualche prova, veramente fatti bene! Per l'accento acuto nel minuscolo mi sembra più comoda la vostra (doppia ò), però poi non diventa un problema quando dev'essere maiuscola? Per la ô terrei la soluzione piemontese (^o), che loro usano per ĝ e un altro paio di consonanti, per la œ si potrebbe usare \oe --Glz19 (ciciarade) 14:27, 12 Giü 2017 (CEST)

Ho visto il tuo passaggio su vec.wiki ;), potevi testarli anche direttamente qua comunque (e se aggiornassero pure l'estensione per il browser potresti farlo anche fuori dalle wiki nella normale navigazione... peccato però che lì le lingue aggiunte più recentemente non funzionano). Per la ó: usando solitamente Linux dove premendo maiusc ti fa le maiuscole anche delle accentate all'epoca non m'ero posto il problema, ma effettivamente scrivendo da Win... Forse si potrebbe ovviare con òO?--GatoSelvadego (ciciarade) 17:31, 12 Giü 2017 (CEST)

Accidenti, non ero al corrente di tutte queste potenzialità! Sarebbe bello anche esportarlo fuori dalla wiki, come pacchetto scaricabile. Comunque anch'io uso Linux, ma dovendo utilizzare qualche volta Windows ho ben presente il problema;) Dato che c'è lo stesso problema anche con la È ed É maiuscole, si potrebbe pensare di includere anche loro (anche se in realtà è un problema che ha in generale la tastiera italiana). Proposta (ovviamente IMHO):

ö Ö ü Ü ï Ï	ô Ô	ó Ó	œ Œ	facoltative: Ò É È
:o :O :u :U :i :I	^o ^O	òò \òò	\oe \\oe	\ò \é \è

--Glz19 (ciciarade) 20:10, 12 Giü 2017 (CEST)

[@ Sciking] dove viene usata la ô? So che in alcune versioni della milanese si usava la â, ma lo ô non l'ho mai vista. Mi viene il dubbio che intendessi semplicemente ó ed ò :) --Glz19 (ciciarade) 20:13, 12 Giü 2017 (CEST)

el sô, el piscô, el resgiô --Sciking (dìmm tuscòss) 20:49, 12 Giü 2017 (CEST)

@Glz19: l'estensione per Chrome e Firefox c'è già, ma funziona solo per l'Hindi e le lingue di quelle parti (perché il tool l'hanno sviluppato loro, e hanno creato l'estensione per Browser una volta sistemati i loro metodi e non l'hanno più aggiornata, credo), forse anche per l'esperanto e qualche lingua europea (ovvero tutte quelle che erano già a posto nel 2013, quando han fatto l'ultimo aggiornamento). Magari chiedendo agli sviluppatori su github un aggiornamento potrebbero anche farlo...

Per il resto \OE non sarebbe più pratico di \\oe? Per le facoltative: è così frequente ritrovarle ad inizio parola? Se non ne vale la pena, cioè se si trovano in pochi casi, si può lasciare l'inserimento normale (caratteri speciali)...--GatoSelvadego (ciciarade) 22:29, 12 Giü 2017 (CEST)

PS: dimenticavo, va poi tenuto conto se può servire far comparire proprio quelle combinazioni... tipo se serve scrivere proprio òò... per la versione veneta abbiamo usato la H come carattere per generare le combinazioni, e l'abbiamo fatto perché quei caratteri sono sostitutivi proprio dei digrammi con la H (es. si può scrivere ẑ ma anche zh, đ ma anche dh). Questo però ha portato all'esigenza di creare anche combinazioni per scrivere i digrammi (metti che devo scrivere un toponimo straniero) ed abbiamo fatto per esempio così: zh per scrive ẑ, zhh per scrive zh etc... Nel vostro caso comunque se le combinazioni sono quelle (cioè se usate caratteri che non sono lettere) non dovrebbe esserci questa esigenza.--GatoSelvadego (ciciarade) 22:44, 12 Giü 2017 (CEST)

In effetti piuttosto che \\oe è meglio \OE. Per le facoltative: penso che la frequenza sia leggermente maggiore che in italiano (visto che in alcune grafie lombarde praticamente ogni parola va accentata), ma non è un grosso problema. Riguardo alle combinazioni: credo che \ non sia usato nella sintassi wiki (tranne nel modulo latex, es. <math>\tau</math> --> $\tau$), così come ^, e credo sia piuttosto improbabile imbattersi in parole con una doppia ò. Il problema rimane per :, che viene usato nella sintassi, oltre che per il rientro (che può essere risolto semplicemente lasciando uno spazio) anche per i link (esempio --> :it:Utente:Glz19 --> ïtÜtente:Glz19). O si usa una combinazione diversa (ad esempio \opp, oppure \:o --> ö) oppure semplicemente si toglie l'imput method in quei casi. --Glz19 (ciciarade) 11:24, 13 Giü 2017 (CEST)

Si, anche perché l'uso dei due punti è più intuitivo (lo usa anche l'input method tedesco) e sicuramente va messo prima della lettera (perché i due punti in un testo vanno separati da uno spazio prima della lettera successiva, ma vanno attaccati alla lettera precedente). Certo c'è il problema che segnali ma è sufficiente disabilitare momentaneamente il metodo o più semplicemente fare uno spazio e poi cancellarlo... Ad ogni modo si può anche pensare ad una combinazione tipo :i\ che faccia comparire :i...--GatoSelvadego (ciciarade) 17:42, 13 Giü 2017 (CEST)

In effetti non avevo pensato alla possibilità dello spazio temporaneo. Per comodità comunque creare anche :i\ --> :i mi sembra un'ottima idea. --Glz19 (ciciarade) 18:44, 13 Giü 2017 (CEST)

Accessible editing buttons

The MediaWiki developers have been slowly improving the accessibility of the user interface. The next step in this transition will change the appearance of some buttons and may break some outdated (non-updated or unmaintained) user scripts and gadgets.

You can see and use the old and new versions now. Most editors will only notice that some buttons are slightly larger and have different colors.

• Comparison of old and new styles
• 

  Buttons before the change

• 

  Buttons after the change

However, this change also affects some user scripts and gadgets. Unfortunately, some of them may not work well in the new system. If you maintain any user scripts or gadgets that are used for editing, please see mw:Contributors/Projects/Accessible editing buttons for information on how to test and fix your scripts. Outdated scripts can be tested and fixed now.

This change will probably reach this wiki on Tuesday, 18 July 2017. Please leave a note at mw:Talk:Contributors/Projects/Accessible editing buttons if you need help.

Page Previews (Hovercards) update

Hello,

A quick update on the progress of enabling Page Previews (previously named Hovercards) on this project. Page Previews provide a preview of any linked article, giving readers a quick understanding of a related article without leaving the current page. As mentioned in December we're preparing to remove the feature from Beta and make it the default behavior for logged-out users. We have recently made a large update to the code which fixes most outstanding bugs.

Due to some issues with our instrumentation, we delayed our deployment by a few months. We are finally ready to deploy the feature. Page Previews will be off by default and available in the user preferences page for logged-in users the week of July 24th. The feature will be on by default for current beta users and logged-out users. If you would like to preview the feature, you can enable it as a beta feature. For more information see Page Previews. Questions can be left on the talk page in your preferred language.

Thank you again.

Voci che riguardano la Lombardia

In questo anno e mezzo (quasi) di collaborazione a Wikipedia in italiano ho creato un certo numero di pagine che riguardano la Lombardia. Quasi tutte sono biografie, ma c'è anche qualche cosa d'altro. Vi segnalo queste pagine, in caso voi vogliate trarne una traduzione o una sintesi per Wp in lingua Lombarda.

Settimio Bocconi (Lodi), Carlo Bonomi (artista) (Turbigo), Vitaliano Marchini (Melegnano), Lina Arpesani (Milano), Angelo Righetti (Brescia), Aldo Mazza (Milano), Giuseppe Mazza (Milano), Salvatore Mazza (Milano), Elena Anguissola (Cremona) - della Anguissola ho creato voci di singole opere pittoriche -, Matilde Ferrari (Mantova), Bice Melzi d'Eril (Milano), Caterina Melzi d'Eril (Milano), Anna Maria Auguissola (Cremona), Ernesto Invernizzi (Como oppure Caslino d'Erba), Faustino Anderloni (Brescia), Orsola Ferrari (Mantova), Carlo Zanfrognini (Mantova), Caffè Martini (Milano), Vittore Ottolini (Milano), Alma Fidora (Milano), Paolo Gaifami (Como). Vedo che appaiono tutte scritte in rosso, quindi ritengo che manchino nella vostra Wp. Grazie dell'attenzione.--FloraFlavia (ciciarade) 19:55, 29 Lüi 2017 (CEST)

La transclusione dei testi in milanese di Wikisource

Per venire incontro ad una esigenza della Wikipedia in lingua romancia che voleva meglio utilizzare i numerosi testi in lingua romancia caricati su it.wikisource, Alex brollo ha messo a punto la possibilità di una transclusione interprogetto [15]. La situazione è analoga per Wikipedia in lingua lombarda, che potrebbe meglio utilizzare i collegamenti con i tanti testi in milanese caricati su it.Wikisource. Se la cosa vi interessa, Alex brollo è sempre gentile, anche se oberato di lavoro. Sarebbe bello, poi, creare una pagina di coordinamento per le lingue dell'arco alpino. Sulle varie versioni di Wikisource sono disponibili, oltre che in milanese, molti testi in piemontese, romancio, ladino, veneto, friulano che verrebbero valorizzati da una presentazione congiunta.

RfC regarding "Interlinking of accounts involved with paid editing to decrease impersonation"

There is currently a RfC open on Meta regarding "requiring those involved with paid editing on Wikipedia to link on their user page to all other active accounts through which they advertise paid Wikipedia editing business."

Note this is to apply to Wikipedia and not necessarily other sister projects, this is only to apply to websites where people are specifically advertising that they will edit Wikipedia for pay and not any other personal, professional, or social media accounts a person may have.

Please comment on meta. Thanks. Send on behalf of User:Doc James.

Discussion on synced reading lists

Discussion on synced reading lists

Hello,

The Reading Infrastructure team at the Wikimedia Foundation is developing a cross-platform reading list service for the mobile Wikipedia app. Reading lists are like bookmark folders in your web browser. They allow readers using the Wikipedia app to bookmark pages into folders to read later. This includes reading offline. Reading lists do not create or alter content in any way.

To create Reading Lists, app users will register an account and marked pages will be tied to that account. Reading List account preferences sync between devices. You can read the same pages on different mobile platforms (tablets, phones). This is the first time we are syncing preference data between devices in such a way. We want to hear and address concerns about privacy and data security. We also want to explain why the current watchlist system is not being adapted for this purpose.

Background

In 2016 the Android team replaced the simple Saved Pages feature with Reading Lists. Reading Lists allow users to bookmark pages into folders and for reading offline. The intent of this feature was to allow "syncing" of these lists for users with many devices. Due to overlap with the Gather feature and related community concerns, this part was put on hold.

The Android team has identified this lack of synching as a major area of complaint from users. They expect lists to sync. The iOS team has held off implementing Reading Lists, as syncing was seen as a "must have" for this feature. A recent technical RfC has allowed these user stories and needs to be unblocked. Initially for Android, then iOS, and with web to potentially follow.

Reading lists are private, stored as part of a user's account, not as a public wiki page. There is no sharing or publishing ability for reading lists. No planned work to make these public. The target audience are people that read Wikipedia and want to bookmark and organize that content in the app. There is a potential for the feature to be available on the web in the future.

Why not watchlists

Watchlists offer similar functionality to Reading Lists. The Reading Infrastructure team evaluated watchlist infrastructure before exploring other options. In general, the needs of watchlists differ from Reading Lists in a few key ways:

• Reading lists focus on Reading articles, not the monitoring of changes.
• Watchlists are focused on monitoring changes of pages/revisions.
  • The Watchlist infrastructure is key to our contributor community for monitoring content changes manually and through the use of automated tools (bots). Because of these needs, expanding the scope of Watchlists to reading purposes will only make the project harder to maintain and add more constraints.
• By keeping the projects separate it is easier to scale resources. We can serve these two different audiences and prioritize the work accordingly. Reading Lists are, by their nature, less critical to the health of Wikipedia/MediaWiki.
• Multi-project support. Reading Lists are by design cross-wiki/project. Watchlists are tied to specific wikis. While there have been many discussion for making them cross-wiki, resolution is not in the near term.

More information can be found on MediaWiki.org where feedback and ideas are welcome.

Thank you

Lingue regionali

Nell'ormai lontano 2008 qualcuno aveva diligentemente raccolto i dati sulle varie versioni di Wikipedia e dei progetti fratelli nelle varie lingue regionali italiane, in senso lato, includendo anche Corso ecc. https://scn.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Prucettu_Wikifratillanza Sarebbe bello riprendere l'iniziativa.

Sandrina Ravizza

Buongiorno a tutti e buon lavoro. Ho creato questa pagina che vi segnalo nel titolo e ho notato che è stata corretta da un altro Utente. Ringrazio per l'aiuto, ma il senso della pagina da me creata non era questo. Credo che quel termine usato, seppure in modo dialettale e colorito, può sembrare offensivo e settario e discriminante nei confronti di qualcuno. Secondo me dovrebbe essere rimosso, anzi dovrebbe essere tolta tutta l'ultima riga, poiché chi non conosce il Parco Ravizza può pensare che sia un ritrovo malfamato, e non è assolutamente stato istituito per questo.

Grazie a tutti e buon lavoro.

New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers

New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers

The Readers web team will be deploying a new feature this week to make it easier to download PDF versions of articles on the mobile website.

Providing better offline functionality was one of the highlighted areas from the research done by the New Readers team in Mexico, Nigeria, and India. The teams created a prototype for mobile PDFs which was evaluated by user research and community feedback. The prototype evaluation received positive feedback and results, so development continued.

For the initial deployment, the feature will be available to Google Chrome browsers on Android. Support for other mobile browsers to come in the future. For Chrome, the feature will use the native Android print functionality. Users can choose to download a webpage as a PDF. Mobile print styles will be used for these PDFs to ensure optimal readability for smaller screens.

The feature is available starting Wednesday, Nov 15. For more information, see the project page on MediaWiki.org.

Grazie!

Editing News #1—2018

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

Did you know?

Did you know that you can now use the visual diff tool on any page?

Sometimes, it is hard to see important changes in a wikitext diff. This screenshot of a wikitext diff (click to enlarge) shows that the paragraphs have been rearranged, but it does not highlight the removal of a word or the addition of a new sentence.

If you enable the Beta Feature for "Differenze visuali", you will have a new option. It will give you a new box at the top of every diff page. This box will let you choose either diff system on any edit.

Click the toggle button to switch between visual and wikitext diffs.

In the visual diff, additions, removals, new links, and formatting changes will be highlighted. Other changes, such as changing the size of an image, are described in notes on the side.

This screenshot shows the same edit as the wikitext diff. The visual diff highlights the removal of one word and the addition of a new sentence.

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 spent most of their time supporting the 2017 wikitext editor mode, which is available inside the visual editor as a Beta Feature, and improving the visual diff tool. Their work board is available in Phabricator. You can find links to the work finished each week at mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings. Their current priorities are fixing bugs, supporting the 2017 wikitext editor, and improving the visual diff tool.

Recent changes

• The 2017 wikitext editor is available as a Beta Feature on desktop devices. It has the same toolbar as the visual editor and can use the citoid service and other modern tools. The team have been comparing the performance of different editing environments. They have studied how long it takes to open the page and start typing. The study uses data for more than one million edits during December and January. Some changes have been made to improve the speed of the 2017 wikitext editor and the visual editor. Recently, the 2017 wikitext editor opened fastest for most edits, and the 2010 WikiEditor was fastest for some edits. More information will be posted at mw:Contributors/Projects/Editing performance.
• The visual diff tool was developed for the visual editor. It is now available to all users of the visual editor and the 2017 wikitext editor. When you review your changes, you can toggle between wikitext and visual diffs. You can also enable the new Beta Feature for "Visual diffs". The Beta Feature lets you use the visual diff tool to view other people's edits on page histories and Special:RecentChanges. [16]
• Wikitext syntax highlighting is available as a Beta Feature for both the 2017 wikitext editor and the 2010 wikitext editor. [17]
• The citoid service automatically translates URLs, DOIs, ISBNs, and PubMed id numbers into wikitext citation templates. It is very popular and useful to editors, although it can be a bit tricky to set up. Your wiki can have this service. Please read the instructions. You can ask the team to help you enable citoid at your wiki.

Let's work together

• The team will talk about editing tools at an upcoming Wikimedia Foundation metrics and activities meeting.

Wikisource in piemontese

Secondo una seguita scuola di pensiero, un idioma, per essere considerato lingua, deve avere una letteratura. Oso dire, facendo un traslato, che una WP in una lingua regionale, deve avere a fianco una WS che raccolga i testi letterari. Gli amici piemontesi da poco sono riusciti in brevissimo tempo a creare Wikisource in piemontese. Si aggiunge a Wikisource in veneto. Altre lingue della zona sono ospitate su oldWikisource: ligure, romancio, ladino. Periodicamente torno a sollecitare qui la situazione del lombardo: la letteratura milanese è particolarmente ricca. Una selezione è già caricata su it:Wikisource, occorrerebbe che qualcuno di voi prenda in mano la questione e decidere se lasciare le cose come stanno oppure seguire la strada dei piemontesi e veneti e cercare di creare una Wikisource in lombardo. Una strada potrebbe essere utilizzare la transclusione per ottenere i primi risultati in breve tempo e con sforzi limitati. Potrebbe essere un modo per avvicinare le scuole, dove i testi di Carlo Porta sono letti.-Mizardellorsa (ciciarade) 07:02, 15 Giü 2018 (CEST)

Vedremo volentieri cosa fare con le nostre, purtroppo in questo periodo esigue, forze. Grazie della segnalazione! --Sciking (dìmm tuscòss) 14:25, 15 Giü 2018 (CEST)

Sarebbe un bellissimo progetto, purtroppo in questo periodo io non ho proprio il tempo materiale per dedicarmici. Per il futuro (o per qualcun altro interessato che potrebbe già essere disponibile), quali sarebbero i primi passi? Bisognerebbe partire da qui e qui? Mentre per la transclusione si far riferimento a questa guida? --Glz19 (ciciarade) 14:29, 15 Giü 2018 (CEST)

Si, la strada migliore sarebbe quella di passare da OldWikisource. Bisogna vedere cosa ne pensano quelli di it.Wikisource. Se l'orientamento sarà per dare autonomia a Wikisource in lombardo, non sarà necessario fare le cose subito. Basta porselo come obiettivo e sperare di trovare chi ci potrà dare una mano. Se ci saranno novità, tornerò a scrivere qui.Mizardellorsa (ciciarade) 23:52, 15 Giü 2018 (CEST)

Strategia WMI - incontro 7 luglio 2018 a Milano

La riunione è aperta anche ai nono soci, ed è previsto che sarà replicata in altre città italiane per venire incontro a chi abita in altre zone. [19]. Potrebbero diventare l'ottima occasione per chiedere di inserire nella strategia generale di WMI le attività svolte nelle lingue regionali dai vari progetti wikimediani.

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!

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!

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

itWikiCon a Como

Nei giorni 16-18 novembre si tiene a Como ItWikiCon, tre giornate di dibattiti fra i wikimediani. La parte di programma già finora delineato è raggiungibile con questo link Entro il 16 ottobre si possono proporre nuovi temi. Potrebbe essere l'occasione di incontrarsi di persona. Io provo a rilanciare la mia solita proposta: raccogliere testi nelle lingue così dette minori su Wikisource. Già adesso la presenza di testi in milanese per merito soprattutto delle digitalizzazioni fatte da Digitami della Biblioteca comunale di Milano è piuttosto cospicua, ma la letteratura lombarda è immensa e si potrebbe dedicare tempo ed energie per caricare una larga selezione su wikisource, con i relativi link da Wikipedia. Se c'è interesse segnalatelo. Ne approfitto per evidenziare che è stata aperta Wikisource in lombardo Se volete intervenire, per integrazioni o per sostituire eventuali parole rimaste in italiano, con quelle in idioma lombardo fate pure.-Mizardellorsa (ciciarade) 10:48, 2 Utu 2018 (CEST)

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. [20]

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.

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.

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.

Learning more

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.

Thank you for your input! -- The Trust & Safety team 10:03, 16 Agu 2019 (CEST)

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!
