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

Please help translate to your language

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, Wikipedia 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 (talk) 22:37, 23 Mar 2021 (CET)

Universal Code of Conduct – 2021 consultations

Universal Code of Conduct Phase 2

Please help translate to your language

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

Hello!

I apologize for sending a message in English. Please help translate to your language. 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,
—Thanks for the fish! ^{talk•contribs} 20:48, 6 Abr 2021 (CEST)

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) 17:09, 12 Abr 2021 (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 "Discussion tools" 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.

Server switch

Read this message in another language • Please help translate to your language

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.

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, 29 June 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 30 June).
• 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 June 28. 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. A banner will be displayed on all wikis 30 minutes before this operation happens. Please share this information with your community.

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) (talk) 18:38, 17 Aus 2021 (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 (english at the end)

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) (talk) 14:50, 8 Cab 2021 (CEST)

In English - The message above is about the results of the Board Elections 2021 of Wikimedia Foundation, the election ended 31 August 2021.
You can read the full announcement here. Please do not hesitate to contact me for any question about the Wikimedia Movement, the Election, the Movement strategy or any other curiosity you may have. (on my talk page on meta or via Email), even in Sardinian which I can read but I'm absolutely not able to write ;-) --Civvi (WMF) (talk) 14:50, 8 Cab 2021 (CEST)

Movement Strategy announces the Call for Candidates for the Movement Charter Drafting Committee. The Call opens August 2, 2021 and closes September 14, 2021.

The Committee is expected to represent diversity in the Movement. Diversity includes gender, language, geography, and experience. This comprises participation in projects, affiliates, and the Wikimedia Foundation.

English fluency is not required to become a member. If needed, translation and interpretation support is provided. Members will receive an allowance to offset participation costs. It is US$100 every two months.

We are looking for people who have some of the following skills:

• Know how to write collaboratively. (demonstrated experience is a plus)
• Are ready to find compromises.
• Focus on inclusion and diversity.
• Have knowledge of community consultations.
• Have intercultural communication experience.
• Have governance or organization experience in non-profits or communities.
• Have experience negotiating with different parties.

The Committee is expected to start with 15 people. If there are 20 or more candidates, a mixed election and selection process will happen. If there are 19 or fewer candidates, then the process of selection without election takes place.

Will you help move Wikimedia forward in this important role? Submit your candidacy here. Please contact strategy2030wikimedia.org with questions.

Server switch

Read this message in another language • Please help translate to your language

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).

Strategia del movimento Wikimedia - Programma di sovvenzioni

Buongiorno a tutti e scusate l'italiano,

Sono qui per informarvi sul programma delle 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) (talk) 12:14, 21 Stg 2021 (CEST)

@217.117.125.83 No, there is no reason to delete them here to cut Sardinian (a single language) into two Wikipedias of which one does not even have a single article after many years. That incubator wiki is completely inactive. --L2212 (talk) 16:12, 15 Std 2021 (CET)

Totally agree with @L2212. sc.wiki has currently only 7 126 articles. If we split it into two or more wikis, we'll end up with two or more very small wikipedias just for some spelling differences. I'm currently the user that writes most actively with the Campidanese orthography and I feel no need of a separate Wikipedia. Even if the Sardinian Region decides to adopt a double standard like someone wishes, we should not split the project. PNNu (talk) 21:49, 15 Std 2021 (CET)

Il progetto Wikipedia in lingua Sassarese è qui [1]. Grazie.--Fausta Samaritani (talk) 22:26, 5 Nad 2021 (CET)

Alcune precisazioni

Il progetto Wichipedia in lingua sassarese (sdc) ha quindi superato le 1.000 voci di contenuto, richieste per uscire dal recinto dell'Incubator Wikipediano - una speciale sezione, una sorta di Limbo - dove sono centinaia di progetti Wikipediani che hanno meno di 1.000 voci e che non hanno visibilità sui motori di ricerca, né propri amministratori. Accedere, [2]. Dopo una verifica di testi e immagini - per cui si chiede il sostegno di esperti wikipediani, meglio se di lingua madre sassarese - sarà presentata al Comitato Wikipediano di Controllo la richiesta ufficiale per uscire dall'Incubator e diventare Wikipedia, a tutti gli effetti.

Il progetto Wiki in sassarese ha un notiziario - lu "Vichipedìanu" - [3], ha proprie statistiche mensili: [4] e ha un vocabolario interno Sassarese-Italiano, diviso in tre voci e in continuo aggiornamento: [5].

Il numeratore automatico sulla home, che in questo momento segna 1.104, è tarato su Incubator in modo da comprendere le voci (1.019) + le categorie (75) + le sandbox (10). Il numero 1.000, che appare più in basso, deve essere al contrario aggiornato manualmente e contiamo di aggiornarlo ogni 100 nuove voci. Per una visione globale delle statistiche del progetto in sassarese, fornito in automatico, [6]. Gli utenti che presentano una riga sopra non hanno maturato, un nessun mese, almeno 11 edits e non sono quindi considerati utenti attivi. Il progetto in sassarese, salvo errori da parte mia, non ha né voci orfane, né voci prive di categoria.--Fausta Samaritani (talk) 11:15, 6 Nad 2021 (CET)

Il Comitato di revisione di Incubator non ha approvato il passaggio a Wikipedia del progetto in lingua sassarese (Wp/sdc/), con la motivazione che ci sono troppi pochi utenti attivi reali [ https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Language_committee ]. Per le statistiche ufficiali, vedi: [ https://meta.toolforge.org/catanalysis/index.php?cat=0&title=Wp/sdc&wiki=incubatorwiki ]. Faccio di nuovo appello ai sardi, perché si prendano cura di questo progetto e lo portino finalmente ad essere Wikipedia, a tutti gli effetti. Grazie.--Fausta Samaritani (talk) 11:49, 18 Nad 2021 (CET)

(IT)Mi dispiace molto per questa novità. Non c'è qualche comunità di parlanti di sassarese, magari nelle reti sociali o in qualche forum? Di sicuro lì è più facile trovare collaborazione. --PNNu (talk) 11:59, 18 Nad 2021 (CET)

Più che conoscere bene il sassarese, in questa fase conta conoscere i meccanismi di Wikipedia. Per esempio, sto facendo 'bandierine' di nazioni e di regioni: non c'è bisogno di conoscere bene il sassarese, basta sapere come si dice in sassarese quella tale nazione, o quella tale regione. Un utente esperto wikipediano può contribuire anche senza conoscere una parola di sassarese. Personalmente ho contribuito a 140 programmi Wikipedia, anche a programmi wiki scritti in alfabeti a me totalmente ignoti. In fondo, per essere considerati 'utenti attivi', basta fare 11 edit nel corso di un mese e replicare nei mesi successivi: uno sforzo minuscolo. Quando il progetto approderà su Wikipedia, tutte le voci saranno visibili sui motori di ricerca e allora sarà più facile trovare collaboratori. Ho mandato e-mail a vari indirizzi sardi o sassaresi - giornali on-line, programmi culturali in sassarese - ma non sono spuntati utenti interessati a contribuire. Basta guardare la carta geografica: la zona dove si parla il sassarese è compressa tra il mare, la zona del sardo e quella del gallurese. Il sassarese quindi non ha possibilità di espandersi e l'italiano lo sta 'annacquando' ogni giorno di più. C'è una cattedra di Linguistica Generale presso l'Università di Sassari, ma non so di che cosa si stia occupando. Buona serata.--Fausta Samaritani (talk) 20:38, 18 Nad 2021 (CET)

Upcoming Call for Feedback about the Board of Trustees elections

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

More languages • Please help translate to your language

The Board of Trustees is preparing a call for feedback about the upcoming Board Elections, from January 7 - February 10, 2022.

While details will be finalized the week before the call, we have confirmed at least two questions that will be asked during this call for feedback:

• What is the best way to ensure fair representation of emerging communities among the Board?

• What involvement should candidates have during the election?

While additional questions may be added, the Movement Strategy and Governance team wants to provide time for community members and affiliates to consider and prepare ideas on the confirmed questions before the call opens. We apologize for not having a complete list of questions at this time. The list of questions should only grow by one or two questions. The intention is to not overwhelm the community with requests, but provide notice and welcome feedback on these important questions.

Do you want to help organize local conversation during this Call?

Contact the Movement Strategy and Governance team on Meta, on Telegram, or via email at msgwikimedia.org.

Reach out if you have any questions or concerns. The Movement Strategy and Governance team will be minimally staffed until January 3. Please excuse any delayed response during this time. We also recognize some community members and affiliates are offline during the December holidays. We apologize if our message has reached you while you are on holiday.

Best,

Movement Strategy and Governance

The Call for Feedback: Board of Trustees elections is now open and will close on 7 February 2022.

With this Call for Feedback, the Movement Strategy and Governance team is taking a different approach. This approach incorporates community feedback from 2021. Instead of leading with proposals, the Call is framed around key questions from the Board of Trustees. The key questions came from the feedback about the 2021 Board of Trustees election. The intention is to inspire collective conversation and collaborative proposal development about these key questions.

Join the conversation.

Updates on the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines Review

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

More languages • Please help translate to your language

Hello everyone,

The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees released a statement on the ratification process for the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) Enforcement Guidelines.

The Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) provides a baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire movement. The UCoC and the Enforcement Guidelines were written by volunteer-staff drafting committees following community consultations.

The revised guidelines were published 24 January 2022 as a proposed way to apply the policy across the movement. There is a list of changes made to the guidelines after the enforcement draft guidelines review. Comments about the guidelines can be shared on the Enforcement Guidelines talk page on Meta-wiki.

To help to understand the guidelines and process, the Movement Strategy and Governance (MSG) team will be hosting Conversation Hours on 4 February 2022 at 15:00 UTC, 25 February 2022 at 12:00 UTC, and 4 March 2022 at 15:00 UTC. Join the conversation hours to speak with the UCoC project team and drafting committee members about the updated guidelines and voting process.

The timeline is available on Meta-wiki. The voting period is March 7 to 21. All eligible voters will have an opportunity to support or oppose the adoption of the Enforcement guidelines, and share why. See the voting information page for more details.

Many participants from across the movement have provided valuable input in these ongoing conversations. The UCoC and MSG teams want to thank the Drafting Committee and the community members for their contributions to this process.

Sincerely,

Movement Strategy and Governance

Incubator

Buon giorno a tutti. Come già accennato qui in passato, mi occupo del progetto Wikipedia in lingua sassarese, attualmente ancora in Incubator. [7]. Per uscire da Incubator è necessario avere almeno 1.000 pagine e Wp/sdc (il progetto in sassarese) ne ha oggi 1.202. Bisogna tuttavia dimostrare anche di aver un certo numero di 'utenti attivi', cioè che fanno un minimo di 12 edit nell'arco di un mese e che si impegnano a farne almeno altri 12, nei mesi successivi. La richiesta di uscire da Incubator è già partita da alcune settimane, ma non viene presa in considerazione perché in questo ultimo mese ci sono solamente due utenti (cioè uno solo, oltre me). Ci vorrebbero altri tre o quattro 'utenti attivi' e la cosa andrebbe in porto, con facilità.

Navigando nelle pagine di Incubator, ho 'scoperto' che esiste un progetto di Campidanesu che, presentato a dicembre 2012, è stato approvato a marzo 2017. Ha unicamente una pagina iniziale, qui [8] ma non ha alcuna voce, né alcuna categoria. Un 'bianco totale'. Se la richiesta è stata fatta, evidentemente qualcuno aveva in mente di fare una wiki in Campidanesu. Vedo che qui avete circa 450 pagine in sardo Campidanesu, ma questo non toglie che si può iniziare anche una wiki specifica. Secondo le regole, per dimostrare che un progetto Wikipedia è attivo, deve avere almeno 25 voci. Dopo tanto tempo, è facile che si pensi a cancellare lo spazio dato al progetto wiki in Campidanesu. Potrei occuparmi di 'impostare' le prime pagine, ma mi servono circa un centinaio di parole di uso comune in Campidanesu. Per il seguito... Dio provvede! Naturalmente dovrebbe diventare non uno specchio di quanto qui fatto, ma una cosa nuova e parallela. Grazie della vostra attenzione.--Fausta Samaritani (talk) 08:19, 15 Fre 2022 (CET)

Salve, @Fausta Samaritani e benritrovata.
L'Incubator per la Wikipedia campidanese è vuoto per il semplice motivo che non ha molto senso, allo stato attuale.
La divisibilità del sardo in due macrovarianti, Campidanese e Logudorese, risale a Max Leopold Wagner ed è attualmente controversa. Alcuni linguisti, come Roberto Bolognesi, affermano esplicitamente su base di studi scientifici che questo è impossibile, mentre altri, come Eduardo Blasco Ferrer e Massimo Pittau hanno sostenuto la necessità di avere uno standard a doppia norma.
Personalmente, per motivi pratici, spero in una Limba Sarda Comuna emendata per permettere alcune forme doppie e più pronunce mantenendo una buona corrispondenza grafema-fonema. Stiamo aspettando che un'apposita commissione (prevista da una legge del 2018) si riunisca per trovare una soluzione.
Ad ogni modo, qualsiasi sia la decisione, credo che dividere una piccola Wikipedia come la sarda in due o più Wikipedie ancora più piccole sarebbe un grave errore. Preferisco dedicare i miei sforzi al raggiungimento del muro di 10.000 articoli sull'enciclopedia che abbiamo. Sono anche del parere che avere più ortografie qui aiuti i sardi a rendersi conto che la differenza fra una variante e l'altra non è poi tanta.--PNNu (talk) 18:14, 15 Fre 2022 (CET)

Ho fatto un decina di voci, per non rischiare una possibile cancellazione dello spazio messo a disposizione da wikipedia. Per caso, ho iniziato dai mesi dell'anno. Ho visto che su questa wiki alcuni sono in sardo, altri in campidanese, altri sono stati fatti in entrambe le varianti. Le voci che ho creato seguono un unico schema. Qui ci sono 450 voci in campidanese, sulle oltre 7.000. Non si tratta di dividere e quello che esiste si lascia e anzi si coltiva, perché c'è anche un discorso 'storico' nella realizzazione di una wikipedia. Si tratta invece di creare un progetto di più ampio respiro, con voci che si integrano a vicenda, con link di rimando da una all'altra wiki. Il traguardo delle 10.000 voci è importante e si può raggiungere anche in breve tempo. Aspettiamo i lavori della commissione. Sono del parere che è sempre preferibile evidenziare le particolarità linguistiche locali, perché sono i linguaggi che la gente parla e che si aspetta di veder riprodotti su wiki. A Roma, una volta, quelli di Monti parlavano un romanesco differente da quelli di Trastevere, e i nobili un romanesco differente da quello del popolo. Oggi tutto questo si è perso. Più o meno tutte le lingue italiche sono in pericolo di estinzione. Io sono sempre del parere che o si salvano tutte le varianti possibili, o non si salva nulla, perché così la lingua diventa sterile, una cosa per linguisti, da studiare. Un argomento difficile da trattare in poche righe. Una volta su lij.wiki un utente ha chiesto di modificare una voce sulla variante del ligure parlato in una valle dove c'è un solo paese. Anche per il sassarese ci sono varianti locali, legate a un borgo o due. Che fare? Si accoglie la variante linguistica, oppure no? O aspettiamo i responsi della commissione, così la variante si perde, perché gli anziani muoiono? Ha scritto un linguista che anni fa ha studiato a fondo i dialetti della Lucania, trovando varianti di valle in valle, che quando muore l'ultimo vecchio che parla un dialetto, quel dialetto muore e non è possibile ricrearlo. In questo, vedo il futuro di wikipedia, più che nel numero enorme di voci che spesso sono soltanto un numero.--Fausta Samaritani (talk) 19:29, 15 Fre 2022 (CET)--Fausta Samaritani (talk) 19:29, 15 Fre 2022 (CET)

Salve @Fausta Samaritani, credo che proprio perché il rischio estinzione per il sardo e così forte e i collaboratori attivi così pochi, si corra un rischio maggiore di disperdere il lavoro, frammentandolo in più progetti, e probabilmente i molti sforzi di poche persone finirebbero frustrati e vanificati. La mia opinione viene soprattutto da un senso pratico, anche se in realtà condivido pienamente ciò che già ha detto @PNNu. Per il resto capisco le tue ragioni e le tue intenzioni, che sono indubbiamente alte e ambiziose.

Riguardo al sassarese, purtroppo non è facile trovare qualcuno che possa contribuire e impegnarsi per la causa. Se la situazione è già così critica con il sardo - parlato da 1,2 milioni di persone - posso solo immaginare il disastro con una lingua parlata da sì e no 200 mila. Mattafalluga (talk) 20:34, 15 Fre 2022 (CET)

Guarda questo elenco di wiki in prova, cioè nell'Incubator

[9] Nell'elenco ci sono solamente quelle 'sostanziali', cioè che hanno almeno 25 pagine. Delle altre non ci sono elenchi. In aggiunta, c'è l'elenco di quelle che hanno già un loro sito. Non guardiamo alle lingue e dialetti dell'Europa, ma a quelli numerosissimi di Africa, Asia, e isole sparse negli Oceani. (Prova ad aprire qualche lingua e guarda che varietà di simboli grafici, per trascrivere i suoni di un lingua!). Lì il problema è ancora peggiore, perché wikipedia non arriva nei villaggi. Stanno diffondendo computer con una programma wikipedia globale fermo ad una determinata data, che non ha bisogno di collegamento Internet, ma non ha aggiornamenti. Ti ripeto, il futuro di wikipedia non è nelle grandi, dove i testi sono stucchevolmente ripetuti, ma nelle piccole e piccolissime realtà linguistiche (che sono anche politiche, sociali, culturali ecc). Gli utenti più attenti stanno lasciando le grandi wikipedia, perché vedono un ulteriore sviluppo in wikidata; altri vanno su Commons; altri vanno verso settori rari e altamente specialistici. Più piccolo e isolato è il numero dei parlanti, più è importante wikipedia. Il sassarese è tra le 7 wiki pronte ad uscire. Lo scorso anno ne sono uscite 18 e quest'anno ancora nessuna. S'è fatto tardi. Buona serata.--Fausta Samaritani (talk) 21:05, 15 Fre 2022 (CET)

Ho l'impressione che non ci siamo capiti, ma in effetti è già un po' tardi. Buona serata anche a te! Mattafalluga (talk) 21:12, 15 Fre 2022 (CET)

Temo anch'io che qualcosa del mio ragionamento potesse non essere chiaro - fra sardi questi discorsi sono stati fatti decine di volte e tendiamo a dare alcuni punti per scontato. Aggiungo qualche breve nota chiarificatrice.
Nessuno apprezza il campidanese più di me che sono nato e cresciuto in pieno Campidano di Oristano. Allo stesso tempo, parlo il sardo tutti i giorni con persone di varie parti della Sardegna e riconosco che le differenze fra le nostre parlate sono poche: come è già stato dimostrato da vari studiosi, il sardo è una lingua unitaria, con tante pronunce differenti, vedi qui. Considerato che il sardo è già in sé unitario, spero che si possano avere in futuro regole ortografiche che rendano, in linea di massima, la pronuncia agevole in qualsiasi variante. Due proposte interessanti in questo senso, di cui sarei felice se si accogliessero almeno un paio di punti, sono quella di Bolognesi e la Grafia Sarda Polifonetica.
Nell'attesa che si arrivi ad un simile risultato, scrivo spesso seguendo la proposta di norma campidanese in questa Wikipedia, ove è perfettamente lecito, anche in coesistenza con altre grafie (L'articolo Limba sarda per esempio esiste in ben quattro versioni). Per questo non vedo la necessità di una Wikipedia separata. --PNNu (talk) 21:51, 15 Fre 2022 (CET)

Lecito, finché qualcuno non se ne accorge che ci sono pasticci: esempio pagine duplicate, di cui la seconda versione, in una lingua diversa (es: con /campidanese), ha un collegamento wikidata doppione che non è lecito e se lo scoprono lo cancellano. Infatti, il doppione wikidata non può avere collegamenti con altri progetti wiki (commons, per esempio) che vanno alla scheda wikidata originale. Sono voci doppione che non hanno visibilità sui motori di ricerca. Ce n'erano una decina su lij.wiki, le ho segnalate e si è proceduto ad emendare il problema, in vari modi: o eliminando il doppione, o traducendolo e trasferendo il contenuto nella pagina madre, oppure cambiando la lingua a tutta la pagina madre e traferendoci il testo del doppione. Naturalmente è consentito scrivere un testo in una lingua sorella, diversa dal sardo e parlata in Sardegna; ma non è consentito fare due e anche più voci sullo stesso argomento nella stessa wiki, e scritte in lingue diverse, anche se parlate in Sardegna. In alcuni casi ho visto qui nella stessa voce la traduzione in un'altra lingua sarda: questa è una opzione accettabile. Ma tutte le wiki regionali, iporegonali e iperegionali italiane si confrontano con il problema del bi-tri-linguismo e oltre, e lo affrontano in modo diverso. Un saluto--Fausta Samaritani (talk) 17:50, 16 Mar 2022 (CET)

Quello che credo di non essere riuscito a spiegare finora è che qui non si tratta di lingue sorelle, ma sempre di sardo. Il campidanese ed il logudorese sono semplicemente due parlate diverse della medesima lingua che si riducono a poche differenze: le principali sono finale in -e per il logudorese, finale in -i per il campidanese, desinenze -are, -ere e -ire per i verbi in logudorese, -ai, -iri e -i per il campidanese. Siccome non esiste ancora un sardo standard, accettare diverse grafie per il momento è stata l'unica soluzione per permettere a tutti di contribuire. Se ne è discusso per anni in questo spazio. Avere una Wikipedia per poter scrivere Die ed una per scrivere Dii quando domani magari ci si metterà d'accordo per scrivere Diė (come alcuni hanno già proposto) mi pare assurdo. E anche se dovesse passare una proposta di sardo in doppia grafia, le differenze sarebbero così poche che basterebbe uno script per passare automaticamente dall'una all'altra. Per quanto riguarda wikidata, il collegamento è solo a quella che viene scelta come versione principale della pagina (quella più completa o, in caso di equivalenza, quella creata per prima). È una soluzione imperfetta e ce ne rendiamo tutti conto, ma tutto quello che ruota intorno alla divisione del sardo in varianti ed a una normalizzazione/standardizzazione è argomento di discussioni molto accese e questo è stato l'unico modo per avere una tregua in attesa che la futura terza commissione sul sardo trovi una soluzione.--PNNu (talk) 18:36, 16 Mar 2022 (CET)

P.s.: ho ripristinato la discussione inavvertitamente svuotata.

Saludi a totus. Spero di poter dare un mio contributo chiarificatore, avendo già discusso con Fausta e apprezzando gli immensi sforzi da lei compiuti. Cerco di dire qualcosa che avvalora quanto detto sopra. Anche io sono campidanesofono. La situazione in realtà è un po' più complessa, perché le differenze fra campidanese e nuorese/logudorese sono tante, così tante (il vocabolario per esempio, e non la solita questione della grafia) da far diventare la questione una questione di confine. Al punto che ancora si dibatte e che si parla di macrovarianti e che ci sono teorie che spingerebbero verso un maggiore riconoscimento di questa diciamo così intercomprensibilità non proprio semplice. Dunque io sono un teorico della possibilità dell'esistenza di una Wiki in campidanese per - a mio avviso - motivi oggettivi di esistenza di una lingua/variante fortemente riconoscibile (così come in effetti c'è Wiki in corso e si cerca di farne una in sassarese, e immagino vi siano altri esempi. D'altronde Wiki non ragiona solo in termini di lingue vere e proprie, ma di entità de facto diciamo, vedi Wiki in simple English). Ma, nonostante ciò, per vari motivi, sono per una wiki unica con possibilità di scrivere nelle varie varianti (che non sono solo pronunce ;) ) e da sempre ho lavorato per questo. Perché? Per motivi pragmatici semplici. 1) per semplificare e tagliare la testa al toro sul dibattito e lasciare una situazione aperta ecumenica che possa accontentare tutti, e pare stia funzionando. 2) per non togliere forze a una Wiki già debole e per non avventurarci in una wiki debolissima. I campidanesofoni in teoria sono il maggior numero, essendo campidanesofoni teorici tutti gli abitanti di Cagliari e hinterland (che sono già tanti) più tutto il resto, ma, per vari motivi, inclusa l'urbanizzazione, i parlanti e scriventi sono solo teorici. Di fatto il campidanese è poco parlato e lo è soprattutto dalle vecchie generazioni che non lo scrivono. Io sono nato a Carbonia per dire, che dovrebbe essere uno dei centri più grandi dove si parla il campidanese, ma per la storia particolare della cittadina, pochi lo parlano. Insomma, rischia di essere un grande sforzo per un risultato che rischia di essere un danno. -- Elcaracol (Tzerriamì puru) 18:21, 17 Mar 2022 (CET)

Non bisogna considerare wiki in sardo come una entità a sé, ma vederla inserta in un complesso immensamente più ampio. Ad esempio, la voce Cagliari avete controllato come è fatta in tutte le wiki che la hanno? Se le informazioni su abitanti, amministrazione ecc. sono obsolete e vanno aggiornate? Qualcosa ho fatto per città della Liguria, anche in wiki di cui non leggevo neppure una parola e neppure sapevo in che lingua erano scritte. Ho messo immagini e corretto numeri.

Ho chiesto ad una ragazza sarda se parla sassarese. Mi ha risposto: Sassari è a 200 chilometri da casa mia. E' come se avessi chiesto ad un romano se parla napoletano o abruzzese... Dal di fuori si vede la Sardegna come una unità linguistica - sono sardi e parlano in sardo - invece è un insieme di lingue/dialetti che s'incontrano e si distinguono variamente. Creare una nuova wiki - che a vostro parere risulterebbe piccola e debole e indebolirebbe wiki in sardo - è spostare la questione. Ci sono wiki che hanno un numero stragrande di voci, ma sono fragili come impostazione, scempie e invecchiate nelle informazioni. La differenza non è nel numero delle voci, ma nella cura, nella documentazione, nella scelte delle immagini e in particolare nella possibilità di un incremento ordinato della wiki. Nella wiki in sassarese, ad esempio, nelle voci dei giorni dell'anno e in quelle degli anni ci sono molte migliaia di link in rosso, predisposti per diventare in blu: sono link a nome/cognome di personalità e a località di tutto il mondo, altre a musei, a monumenti, ecc. Vi ripeto: è dalla Cronologia che si deve partire: perché la cronologia fornisce la possibilità di creare link in entrata a qualsiasi voce biografia e dalle voci biografiche si parte per creare voci in qualsiasi ramo del sapere. Almeno dall'anno 1 d.C. al 2022, tutti gli anni, con creazione di category per ogni secolo d.C. Con l'aiuto di un bot gli anni che mancano, se prima realizzate le 21 category dei secoli, si fanno in una giornata e si può prevedere in automatico anche una divisione in capitoli delle voci degli anni. Con qualche giorno in più si prevedono altri due template nelle voci degli anni, altre a quello di testata che io vado inserendo, senza l'iuto di un bot.

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.

Remember to Participate in the UCoC Conversations and Ratification Vote!

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

Hello everyone,

A vote in SecurePoll from 7 to 21 March 2022 is scheduled as part of the ratification process for the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) Enforcement guidelines. Eligible voters are invited to answer a poll question and share comments. Read voter information and eligibility details. During the poll, voters will be asked if they support the enforcement of the Universal Code of Conduct based on the proposed guidelines.

The Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) provides a baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire movement. The revised enforcement guidelines were published 24 January 2022 as a proposed way to apply the policy across the movement. A Wikimedia Foundation Board statement calls for a ratification process where eligible voters will have an opportunity to support or oppose the adoption of the UCoC Enforcement guidelines in a vote. Wikimedians are invited to translate and share important information. For more information about the UCoC, please see the project page and frequently asked questions on Meta-wiki.

There are events scheduled to learn more and discuss:

• A community panel recorded on 18 February 2022 shares perspectives from small- and medium-sized community participants.
• The Movement Strategy and Governance (MSG) team is hosting Conversation Hours on 4 March 2022 at 15:00 UTC. Please sign-up to interact with the project team and the drafting committee about the updated enforcement guidelines and the ratification process. See the Conversation Hour summaries for notes from 4 February 2022 and 25 February 2022.

You can comment on Meta-wiki talk pages in any language. You may also contact either team by email: msgwikimedia.org or ucocprojectwikimedia.org

Buongiorno a tutti,

Come forse saprete già, la prossima settimana, precisamente dal 7 al 21 marzo, si terrà la votazione per la ratifica delle linee guida per l'applicazione del Codice Universale di Condotta (UCoC). In quanto componenti del movimento Wikimedia, la vostra voce e le vostre opinioni sono importanti, ed è quindi necessaria la vostra rappresentanza in questa votazione.

In quanto volontario di supporto per tutta la durata della votazione, se avete domande o bisogno di ulteriori informazioni potete contattarmi in qualsiasi momento. Potete trovare su meta-wiki maggiori informazioni sull'UCoC, sulle linee guida per l'applicazione e sul processo di voto. Infine, vi informo che recentemente si è svolto un incontro online (in inglese) sulle linee guida per l'applicazione dell'UCoC e sulla necessità di votare, in particolare per le comunità di piccole e medie dimensioni, e che è possibile visualizzare la registrazione integrale qui.

Invitation to Hubs event: Global Conversation on 2022-03-12 at 13:00 UTC

Hello!

The Movement Strategy and Governance team of the Wikimedia Foundation would like to invite you to the next event about "Regional and Thematic Hubs". The Wikimedia Movement is in the process of understanding what Regional and Thematic Hubs should be. Our workshop in November was a good start (read the report), but we're not finished yet.

Over the last weeks we conducted about 16 interviews with groups working on establishing a Hub in their context (see Hubs Dialogue). These interviews informed a report that will serve as a foundation for discussion on March 12. The report is planned to be published on March 9.

The event will take place on March 12, 13:00 to 16:00 UTC on Zoom. Interpretation will be provided in French, Spanish, Arabic, Russian, and Portuguese. Registration is open, and will close on March 10. Anyone interested in the topic is invited to join us. More information on the event on Meta-wiki.

Coming soon: Improvements for templates

Fundamental changes in the template dialog.

Hello, more changes around templates are coming to your wiki soon:

The template dialog in VisualEditor and in the 2017 Wikitext Editor (beta) will be improved fundamentally: This should help users understand better what the template expects, how to navigate the template, and how to add parameters.

• project page, talk page

In syntax highlighting (CodeMirror extension), you can activate a colorblind-friendly color scheme with a user setting.

• project page, talk page

Deployment is planned for May 10. This is the last set of improvements from WMDE Technical Wishes' focus area “Templates”.

Revisions to the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) Enforcement Guidelines

More languages • Please help translate to your language

Hello all,

We'd like to provide an update on the work on the Enforcement Guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct. After the conclusion of the community vote on the guidelines in March, the Community Affairs committee (CAC) of the Board asked that several areas of the guidelines be reviewed for improvements before the Board does its final review. These areas were identified based on community discussions and comments provided during the vote. The CAC also requested review of the controversial Note in 3.1 of the UCoC itself.

Once more, a big thank you to all who voted, especially to all who left constructive feedback and comments! The project team is working with the Board to establish a timeline for this work, and will communicate this next month.

Members of the two prior UCoC Drafting Committees have generously offered their time to help shape improvements to the Guidelines. You can read more about them and their work here, as well as read summaries of their weekly meetings in 2022.

Wikimedians have provided many valuable comments together with the vote and in other conversations. Given the size and diversity of the Wikimedia community, there are even more voices out there who can give ideas on how to improve the enforcement guidelines and add even more valuable ideas to the process. To help the Revisions committee identify improvements, input on several questions for the committee’s review is requested. Visit the Meta-wiki pages (Enforcement Guidelines revision discussions, Policy text revision discussions) to get your ideas to the Committee - it is very important that viewpoints are heard from different communities before the Committee begins drafting revision proposals.

On behalf of the UCoC project team

Proponi delle dichiarazioni per la bussola elettorale del 2022

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

More languages • Please help translate to your language

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

Propose statements for the 2022 Election Compass

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

More languages • Please help translate to your language

Hi all,

Community members in the 2022 Board of Trustees election are invited to propose statements to use in the Election Compass.

An Election Compass is a tool to help voters select the candidates that best align with their beliefs and views. The community members will propose statements for the candidates to answer using a Lickert scale (agree/neutral/disagree). The candidates’ answers to the statements will be loaded into the Election Compass tool. Voters will use the tool by entering in their answer to the statements (agree/disagree/neutral). The results will show the candidates that best align with the voter’s beliefs and views.

Here is the timeline for the Election Compass

• July 8 - 20: Community members propose statements for the Election Compass
• July 21 - 22: Elections Committee reviews statements for clarity and removes off-topic statements
• July 23 - August 1: Volunteers vote on the statements
• August 2 - 4: Elections Committee selects the top 15 statements
• August 5 - 12: candidates align themselves with the statements
• August 15: The Election Compass opens for voters to use to help guide their voting decision

The Elections Committee will select the top 15 statements at the beginning of August. The Elections Committee will oversee the process, supported by the Movement Strategy and Governance team. MSG will check that the questions are clear, there are no duplicates, no typos, and so on.

Best,

Movement Strategy and Governance

The selected 2022 Board of Trustees candidates are:

• Tobechukwu Precious Friday (Tochiprecious)
• Farah Jack Mustaklem (Fjmustak)
• Shani Evenstein Sigalov (Esh77)
• Kunal Mehta (Legoktm)

Please take a moment to appreciate the Affiliate Representatives and Analysis Committee members for taking part in this process and helping to grow the Board of Trustees in capacity and diversity. These hours of volunteer work connect us across understanding and perspective. Thank you for your participation.

Thank you to the community members who put themselves forward as candidates for the Board of Trustees. Considering joining the Board of Trustees is no small decision. The time and dedication candidates have shown to this point speaks to their commitment to this movement. Congratulations to those candidates who have been selected. A great amount of appreciation and gratitude for those candidates not selected. Please continue to share your leadership with Wikimedia.

Thank you to those who followed the Affiliate process for this Board election. You may review the results of the Affiliate selection process.

The next part of the Board election process is the community voting period. You may view the Board election timeline here. To prepare for the community voting period, there are several things community members can engage with in the following ways:

• Read candidates’ statements and read the candidates’ answers to the questions posed by the Affiliate Representatives.
• Propose and select the 6 questions for candidates to answer during their video Q&A.
• See the Analysis Committee’s ratings of candidates on each candidate’s statement.
• Propose statements for the Election Compass voters can use to find which candidates best fit their principles.
• Encourage others in your community to take part in the election.

Best,

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) 06:15, 22 Cab 2022 (CEST)

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) 01:24, 20 Stg 2022 (CEST)

Invitation to attend “Ask Me Anything about Movement Charter” Sessions

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

More languages • Please help translate to your language

Hello all,

During the 2022 Wikimedia Summit, the Movement Charter Drafting Committee (MCDC) presented the first outline of the Movement Charter, giving a glimpse on the direction of its future work, and the Charter itself. The MCDC then integrated the initial feedback collected during the Summit. Before proceeding with writing the Charter for the whole Movement, the MCDC wants to interact with community members and gather feedback on the drafts of the three sections: Preamble, Values & Principles, and Roles & Responsibilities (intentions statement). The Movement Charter drafts will be available on the Meta page here on November 14, 2022. Community wide consultation period on MC will take place from November 20 to December 18, 2022. Learn more about it here.

With the goal of ensuring that people are well informed to fully participate in the conversations and are empowered to contribute their perspective on the Movement Charter, three “Ask Me Anything about Movement Charter" sessions have been scheduled in different time zones. Everyone in the Wikimedia Movement is invited to attend these conversations. The aim is to learn about Movement Charter - its goal, purpose, why it matters, and how it impacts your community. MCDC members will attend these sessions to answer your questions and hear community feedback.

The “Ask Me Anything” sessions accommodate communities from different time zones. Only the presentation of the session is recorded and shared afterwards, no recording of conversations. Below is the list of planned events:

• Asia/Pacific: November 4, 2022 at 09:00 UTC (your local time). Interpretation is available in Chinese and Japanese.
• Europe/MENA/Sub Saharan Africa: November 12, 2022 at 15:00 UTC (your local time). Interpretation is available in Arabic, French and Russian.
• North and South America/ Western Europe: November 12, 2022 at 15:00 UTC (your local time). Interpretation is available in Spanish and Portuguese.

On the Meta page you will find more details; Zoom links will be shared 48 hours ahead of the call.

Call for Movement Charter Ambassadors

Individuals or groups from all communities who wish to help include and start conversations in their communities on the Movement Charter are encouraged to become Movement Charter Ambassadors (MC Ambassadors). MC Ambassadors will carry out their own activities and get financial support for enabling conversations in their own languages. Regional facilitators from the Movement Strategy and Governance team are available to support applicants with MC Ambassadors grantmaking. If you are interested please sign up here. Should you have specific questions, please reach out to the MSG team via email: strategy2030@wikimedia.org or on the MS forum.

We thank you for your time and participation.

On behalf of the Movement Charter Drafting Committee,

The Wikimedia Movement Strategy implementation is a collaborative effort for all Wikimedians. Movement Strategy Implementation Grants support projects that take the current state of a Movement Strategy Initiative and push it one step forward. If you are looking for an example or some guide on how to engage your community further on Movement Strategy and the Movement Strategy Implementation Grants specifically, you may find this community engagement package helpful.

The goal of this community engagement package is to support more people to access the funding they might need for the implementation work. By becoming a recipient of this grant, you will be able to support other community members to develop further grant applications that fit with your local contexts to benefit your own communities. With this package, the hope is to break down language barriers and to ensure community members have needed information on Movement Strategy to connect with each other. Movement Strategy is a two-way exchange, we can always learn more from the experiences and knowledge of Wikimedians everywhere. We can train and support our peers by using this package, so more people can make use of this great funding opportunity.

Opportunities open for the Ombuds commission and the Case Review Committee

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

More languages • Please help translate to your language

Hi everyone! The Ombuds commission (OC) and the Case Review Committee (CRC) are looking for members. People are encouraged to nominate themselves or encourage others they feel would contribute to these groups to do so. There is more information below about the opportunity and the skills that are needed.

About the Ombuds commission

The Ombuds commission (OC) works on all Wikimedia projects to investigate complaints about violations of the privacy policy, especially in use of CheckUser and Oversight (also known as Suppression) tools. The Commission mediates between the parties of the investigation and, when violations of the policies are identified, advises the Wikimedia Foundation on best handling. They may also assist the General Counsel, the Chief Executive Officer, or the Board of Trustees of the Foundation in these investigations when legally necessary. For more on the OC's duties and roles, see Ombuds commission on Meta-Wiki.

Volunteers serving in this role should be experienced Wikimedians, active on any project, who have previously used the CheckUser/Oversight tools OR who have the technical ability to understand these tools and the willingness to learn them. They must be able to communicate in English, the common language of the commission. They are expected to be able to engage neutrally in investigating these concerns and to know when to recuse when other roles and relationships may cause conflict. Commissioners will serve two-year terms (note that this is different from past years, when the terms have been for one year).

About the Case Review Committee

The Case Review Committee (CRC) reviews appeals of eligible Trust & Safety office actions. The CRC is a critical layer of oversight to ensure that Wikimedia Foundation office actions are fair and unbiased. They also make sure the Wikimedia Foundation doesn’t overstep established practices or boundaries. For more about the role, see Case Review Committee on Meta-Wiki.

We are looking for current or former functionaries and experienced volunteers with an interest in joining this group. Applicants must be fluent in English (additional languages are a strong plus) and willing to abide by the terms of the Committee charter. If the work resonates and you qualify, please apply. Committee members will serve two-year terms (note that this is different from past years, when the terms have been for one year).

Applying to join either of these groups

Members are required to sign the Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information and must be willing to comply with the appropriate Wikimedia Foundation board policies (such as the access to non-public information policy and the Foundation privacy policy). These positions requires a high degree of discretion and trust. Members must also be over 18 years of age.

If you are interested in serving in either capacity listed above, please write in English to the Trust and Safety team at cawikimedia.org (to apply to the OC) or to the Legal Team at legalwikimedia.org (to apply to the CRC) with information about:

• Your primary projects
• Languages you speak/write
• Any experience you have serving on committees, whether movement or non-movement
