== [[waarvan]] ==

Woorde soos waarvan, waartydens, daartussen en hieruit word gewoonlik &quot;pronominal adverbs&quot; (en), &quot;voornaamwoordelijke bijwoorden&quot; (nl) ens. genoem, maar ek hou eintlik meer daarvan om hulle '''voornaamwoorde''' te noem, soos jy met [[waarvan]] gedoen het, Frank.

Hulle deel eienskappe van voornaamwoorde en van bywoorde, maar ongelukkig word bywoorde dikwels as 'n minder belangrike deel van de grammatika gesien. Hierdie woorde is egter ewe belangrik vir die Afrikaanse (en Nederlandse) grammatika as die voornaamwoorde self wat hulle vervang. Vanweë hulle naam word hulle dikwels as stiefkinders behandel. 'n Bywoord is mos net bysaak, nê? Selfs mense als Bilderdijk het hulle in die vroeë 1800s reeds kwaad daaroor gemaak.

Kan ons die term &quot;voornaamwoordelike bywoorde&quot; sommer omdraai en hulle &quot;bywoordelike voornaamwoorde&quot; noem? Dit druk ook hulle tweeslagtige natuur uit, maar doen meer reg aan hulle grammatikale rol. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 18:15, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

:Dit klink goed so, maar ek is ongelukkig nie 'n taalkundige nie (ek het rekenaarwetenskap studeer). Jy moet dus maar die leiding neem as dit by die tegniese aspekte kom. Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 19:06, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

:Vanuit 'n taalkundige perspektief word hierdie goed (internasionaal) &quot;voornaamwoordelike bywoorde&quot; genoem, aangesien hulle juis bywoorde is  wat voornaamwoordelik optree. Ons moet asb. nie die term verander nie - dit is goed gevestig! (Terloops ook: Ek dink darem nie bywoorde word meer in moderne grammatikas van die afgelope vyftig jaar as &quot;stiefkinders&quot; behandel nie :-) [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 05:29, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::Wie is &quot;ons&quot; Geebee? Ek het jou nog nooit sien bydra nie. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 11:53, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:::Met &quot;ons&quot; bedoel ek die Wiktionarygemeenskap. So gesien is dit eintlik tans primêr jy, [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] (as ek jou opmerkings in 'n ander onderwerp reg verstaan het)? Ek is inderdaad 'n nuweling hier op Wiktionary, want ek het nog nooit eintlik regtig verstaan wat hier aangaan nie. Maar ek wil niemand se turf bedreig of so nie ... As dit ongevraagd is, dan stoot ek liewer my energie elders in. Die laaste ding waarby ek betrokke wil raak, is die &quot;Wikipedia-politiek&quot; ... [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 15:11, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::: Indien jy nog hier is, Geebee100, het jy dalk al agtergekom dat jy jou tyd met hierdie knopkop verspil. Sy houding en taalgebruik is 'n vooorbeeld van die ondergang van Afrikaans. Ek het nog nie eers probeer om hier by te dra nie - en het gelukkig ook nie die tyd afgestaan om te probeer nie.

== New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
'''New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers'''

The Readers web team will be deploying a new feature this week to make it [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile PDFs|easier to download PDF versions of articles on the mobile website]].

Providing better offline functionality was one of the highlighted areas from [[m:New Readers/Offline|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 [[m:New Readers/Offline#Concept testing for mobile web|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. [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Print Styles#Mobile Printing|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 [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile PDFs|the project page on MediaWiki.org]].

== Kleure ==

Kleure is 'n bietjie 'n internasionale probleem. In die een taal word hulle as selfstandige naamwoorde beskou, in die ander as byvoeglike. Eintlik is hulle nes die telwoorde gespesialiseerde naamwoorde wat soms byvoeglik, soms selfstandig kan wees. Anders as telwoorde word hulle gewoonlik nie as 'n eie (sub)woordklas beskou. 'n Ander item vir die lys met probleme wat opgelos moet word. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 23:46, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
:Kleurname word tradisioneel in Afrikaans primêr as b.nw. gesien, sekondêr as s.nw. Woordeboeke soos die HAT en die WAT bied daarom ook die b.nw. eerste aan, gevolg deur die s.nw. M.i. kan ons gerus maar dieselfde patroon hier volg. [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 05:33, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

== Transliterasie-inskrywings ==
Wat maak ons met inskrywing soos [[Armeense transliterasie]], [[Oekraïense transliterasie]], [[Russiese transliterasie]] en [[Angel-Saksiese alfabet]]? Kan ons dit na die Wiktionary-naamruimte skuif? Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 06:58, 9 Desember 2017 (UTC)

:Ja, dink ek. Dis inligting oor bepaalde tale of skrifte, nie woordeboek goeters nie. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 16:20, 10 Desember 2017 (UTC)

== Woordsoortontleding ==
Kry mens programme wat woordsoortontleding in Afrikaans kan doen? Die Ingelse taalkundiges praat van 'n &quot;Part-of-speech tagger&quot;. So iets sal geweldig baie kan help. Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 18:03, 10 Desember 2017 (UTC)

::Hallo Frank. Ek dink die kodewoord is &quot;morphological analyser&quot; op Google. Ek kon wel twee programme opspoor in ander tale, maar ek weet nie hoe akkuraat hulle is nie. Legible Latin werk absoluut soos 'n droom, hoewel hy 'n woord soos &lt;s&gt;''vocitatus'' glad nie herken nie&lt;/s&gt; (tog wel!); gelukkig is daardie woord reeds by die Engelse Wiktionary opgeneem (wat dit weer by Franse woordeboeke gekry het?). Dan het ek vanoggend  afgekom op https://nlp.fi.muni.cz/czech-morphology-analyser/. Die programme kom nog uit 1995 aan. Die Duitse weergawe is by: http://morphy.wolfganglezius.de/download/. Onder Löwe (Leeu) spoeg hy die volgende uit:

: SUB ''Löwe'' NOM MAS SIN

::Onder ''Löwen'' (Leeu/Leeus) wel:

:SUB Löwe GEN MAS SIN
:SUB Löwe DAT MAS SIN
:SUB Löwe AKK MAS SIN
:SUB Löwe NOM MAS PLU
:SUB Löwe GEN MAS PLU
:SUB Löwe DAT MAS PLU
:SUB Löwe AKK MAS PLU

::Onder Panther (luiperd, panter) kry jy egter almal onder een dak:

:SUB Panther NOM MAS SIN
:SUB Panther DAT MAS SIN
:SUB Panther AKK MAS SIN
:SUB Panther NOM MAS PLU
:SUB Panther GEN MAS PLU
:SUB Panther AKK MAS PLU

Wat mis ons?
::Panthers
:SUB Panther GEN MAS SIN
::Panthern
:SUB Panther DAT MAS PLU

Dit klop 100% met die Duitse Wiktionary-inskrywing (https://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/Panther). Ek besef nou eers hoe onreëlmatig Duits kan raak... Ek dink egter nie Afrikaans het so iets ontwikkel nie. [[Gebruiker:Suidpunt|Suidpunt]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Suidpunt|kontak]]) 04:53, 13 Desember 2017 (UTC)

::: Dankie vir die interessantste inligting. Ek sal later verder oor die onderwerp nalees. Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 15:28, 20 Desember 2017 (UTC)

::In Afrikaans noem ons 'n &quot;part-of-speech tagger&quot; 'n &quot;woordsoortetiketteerder&quot;. Daar is al 'n klompie van hulle vir Afrikaans ontwikkel, waarvan die ene van die Noordwes-Universiteit meestal die basis vorm vir ander wat daarop wil verbeter. Kyk byvoorbeeld hierdie artikel: https://www.ajol.info/index.php/salas/article/view/6661. Die dokumentasie, data en kode van die jongste weergawe is hier beskikbaar: https://repo.sadilar.org/handle/20.500.12185/323. CTexT (aan die NWU) het ook 'n webmodule geskep wat 'n pyplyn skep vir die outomatiese annotering van tekste, waaronder woordsoortetikettering. Tot slot: In beginsel kan 'n mens nie daarop vertrou om woordsoortetiketteerders tussen tale te gebruik nie. Ons het uitvoerig navorsing hieroor gedoen, en dit word ten sterkste afgeraai om dit blindelings te gebruik.

== Frases en vaste begrippe ==

Hallo Leute.

Drie vrae, waarmee, dink ek, veral [[Gebruiker:Jcwf]] kan help.

VRAAG 1
Ek kom onlangs af op die volgende (gottwein.de):

:&quot;LATYN&quot;: Nostri consocii '''crustulis memorialibus''' utuntur. Concedis, si legere pergis.
:&quot;AFRIKAANS&quot;: Ons vennote gebruik '''koekies'''. Deur verder te lees, stem jy toe. [Letterlik: jy stem toe, deur verder te lees]

Mag mens hierdie &quot;begrip&quot; (letterlik: geheuebrokkies of geheuekoekies) net so as soekwoord/lemma/hofie gebruik? [Ek weet net nie of ons hier die ablatief, akkusatief of nominatief het nie - daarmee is ek maar dom].

::Dit is ablatief meervoud. 
VRAAG 2

Die 32 Bataljon het die slagspreuk/leuse gehad: PROELIO PROCUSI. Kan hierdie leuse (of, vaste bewoording) soos &quot;carpe diem&quot; ook soos by vraag 1 gebruik word, of hoe nou? Eintlik raak dit nou vrekmoeilik, want onder elke liewe vervoeging sal ons 'n voorbeeldsin moet aanhaal. Ons sal die carpe diem dus onder &quot;dies&quot; (nominatief, enkelvoud, onsydig) en carpo moet plaas? 

::Op nl.wikt het ons nooit regtig tot goeie afsprake daaoroor gekom nie, omdat daar nog derduisende ander goeter was wat ons aandag gevra het. Dis seker legitiem om ''carpe diem'' onder 'n Latynse lemma dies as uitdrukking op teneem. Ek dink Manie het 'n idioom-opskrif geskep om ook 'n bladsy ''carpe diem'' moontlik te maak, maar ek het my nooi so hiervoor geïnteresseer nie. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 13:38, 23 Desember 2017 (UTC)
VRAAG 3

Hoe maak mens as Afrikaans/Nederlands één woord het wat in ander tale dikwels &quot;veelwoordig&quot; is, soos ''voetstoots''? In Duits sien ek skryf hulle oor dieselfde aangeleentheid ''gekauft wie gesehen''. In Trümpelmann staan daar weer ''unbesehen'', wat heeltemal onwaar is. Deur voetstoots te koop beteken dit om wel iets te koop, soos die HAT stel: ''met sigbare en onsigbare gebreke''. Die tweede deel is &quot;sommer so&quot;, &quot;sonder nadere ondersoek&quot;, maar hier het ons te make met beeldspraak: Ek kan nie hierdie aantyging voetstoots aanvaar nie.

::Dis een van die redes waarom ons verskeie wikti's het en die poging om een omega-wiki daarvan te skep met 'n relasionele database nie regtig geslaag is nie. Ja daar is woorde wat nie met een woord vertaal kan word. Vertaal is nie een-op-een nie. Die indeling van die inligtings sal dus op en.wikt, de.wikt ens. effens verskil. In die vertaalblokkie kan of gekies word vir 'n omskrywing wat dikwels nie geskakel word nie ofwel daar kom geen vertaling nie. Dis ook een van die redes waarom verskeie vertaalblokke, voorbeeldsinne en prentjies belangrik is om die betekenisdefinisie te onderbou. Soms is daar egter vaste verbindings soos &quot;byvoeglike naamwoord&quot; wat hulle eie bladsy verdien. Die Franse gee hieraan 'n eie opskrif soos ''locution nominale''. Ons kan oorweeg om hiervoor ook 'n opskriffie te bedink. Maar soos gesê: daar wag nog derduisende eenvoudiger goeters op 'n beskrywing. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 13:38, 23 Desember 2017 (UTC)

: Ek sien {{Tl|-fm-}} word {{Tl|fm}}, maar daar is nog nie 'n ooreenstemmende {{Tl|nm}} nie.

::Die fm-goeters is 'n stelselmatige ding omdat die meeste vroulike woord nou ook as manlik behandel kan word. Ander kombinasies soos m-n of f-n of m-f-n is lukraak en ek dink ons het geen aparte slablone nodig nie. Ons kan net {{Tl|m}}/{{Tl|n}} skryf. Dis 'n ander rede waarom ek die opskrifte {{Tl|-nm-}} verafsku. Ons moenie reelmaat beweer waar nie reelmaat is nie.

Weet iemand dalk van Afrikaanse klankopnames in die openbare domein wat ons in woorde kan versnipper? Elke Afrikaanse woord kort so 'n klankgreep in 'n manlike en vroulike stem. Alternatiewelik, as iemand bereid is om die woorde vir ons op te neem sal dit ook werk. Die [[Wiktionary:Afrikaans 100|Afrikaans 100]]-woordelys 'n goeie plek om te begin. Groete.

:Wat mens nodig het:
::Jy moet 'n moedertaalspreker wees.
::'n Goeie mikrofoon, soos H4N (ingeboude mikrofoons is dikwels nie goed genoeg nie)
::'n Ruimte wat stil is. (geen agtergrondgeluid of geraas asseblief)
::Gratis geluid-sagteware soos Audacity op jou rekenaar
::Geduld en tyd.


#Maak 'n lys van die woorde wat jy gaan inspreek. (10-20 of so.)
#Spreek hulle duidelik maar natuurlik in. Vermy &quot;letter-uitspraak&quot;, praat soos jy normaal sou praat.
#Maak seker dat:
##jy die resultaat krities beluister (Die hele wiktionary-wêreld wil/gaan jou stem hoor!)
##die opname 'n goeie sterkte het, 
##dit duidelik en sonder vervorming is 
##jy nie in die mikrofoon geblaas het nie, met jou lippe gesmak ens. 
#Knip die opname in aparte lêers 
#stoor hulle as .ogg lêers. 
#Noem die lêer van die woord &quot;watterwoordook&quot;: '''af-''watterwoordook''.ogg''': met prefiks af- en die juiste spelling van die woord. (Klein letter tensy dit altyd 'n hoofletter kry)
#gaan na commons om hulle op te laai. (Ek glo jy kan 10 tegelyk doen)
#dit behoort as Category:Afrikaans pronunciation|watterwoordook gekategoriseer te word. (Anders kom alles onder &quot;af&quot;)

Hier op die Afrikaanse wikiwoordeboek word die klankopname so op die bladsy gesit:

{{Tl|-uitspraak-}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;nowiki&gt;:{{woordklank|ipa=|t=af|o=1}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;

Die klanklêer sal dalk nogtans ook dankbaar op ander wikiwoordeboeke gebruik word. Jy kan dit self doen, maar die sintaks is op ieder werf effens anders. Respekteer asseblief die plaaslike gebruike.

== Voorbeeldblad ==

As ons 'n woord het wat baie volledig uiteengesit is moet ons dit miskien as 'n voorbeeldblad aandui. Dis vir my bv. onduidelik in watter volgorde die hofies moet wees, of wanneer woorde deur kommas geskei, of met nommers gelys moet word. En as dit moontlik is om die voorbeeldblad sommer hier in die linkerbaan aan te dui vir maklike verwysing sal dit goed wees. Dankie vir die wenk dat verskillende betekenisse deur nommers met mekaar geskakel word. Dit was ook nie dadelik intuïtief nie.

Die oorspronklike voorbeeldblad is by [[Wiktionary:Sjabloon/Afrikaans]] (hoewel ons ondertussen effens daarvan begin afwyk het). Die beste is om by die diep kant in te spring en te kyk hoe die mense jou inskrywings korrigeer. Dit het my meer as 'n maand geneem om op dreef te kom, maar die nuutgeskepte dokumentasie behoort die proses aansienlik te versnel. Groete.

== Tydperke ==

Die geologiese tydperke is effens 'n probleem. Daar is gewoonlik 'n selfstandige naamwoord en 'n bybehorende byvoeglike. As ek die HAT goed begryp het die s.nw. Mesosoïkum 'n hoofletter, maar die b.nw. is mesosoïes met kleinletter. Die tydperk Jura kryg nogtans 'n b.nw. Jurassies in HAT, wat nogtans ook dikwels (anglisisties?) as s.nw. gebruik word. 

'n Ander probleem is dat daar dikwels verskillende benamings gebruik word, selfs in skoolmateriale. Ek sien byv. Kainosoïkum op wiki, maar Senosoïkum in HAT. Is dit net sinonime of is Kaino- nie Afrikaans nie? Wat is die b.nw. van Kryt? Van Karboon? (Indien dit bestaan?) Ek het Ordovikium gesien naas Ordovisium. Ensomeer.

== Tell us what you think about the automatic links for Wiktionary ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
Hello all,

(Sorry for writing in English. Feel free to translate this message below.)

One year ago, the Wikidata team started deploying new automatic interwiki links for Wiktionaries. Today, the links for the main namespace are automatically displayed by a Mediawiki extension, and the links for other namespaces are stored in Wikidata. You can find [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:Wiktionary/Sitelinks|the documentation here]] (feel free to help translating it in your language).

We would like to know if you encountered problems with the system, if you would have suggestions for further improvements. This could be for example:
* Some automatic links don’t work as expected
* Some problems you encountered with entering links (for non-main namespace) in Wikidata
* Some new features you’d like to have, related to links

To give feedback, you have two options:
* Let a message on [[d:Wikidata talk:Lexicographical data/Sitelinks|this talk page]]
* Let a message here. If you do so, please mention me with the &lt;nowiki&gt;{{ping}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; template, so I can get a notification.
Our preferred languages are English, French and German, but you can also let a message in your own language if you feel more comfortable with it.

I’m looking forward for your feedback! [[:d:User:Lea Lacroix (WMDE)|Lea Lacroix (WMDE)]] 10:23, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

== Lexicographical data is now available on Wikidata ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
Hello,

''Sorry for writing in English. Feel free to translate the content of this message below.''

After several years discussing about it, and one year of development and discussion with the communities, the development team of Wikimedia Germany has now released the first version of [[d:Wikidata:Lexicographical data|lexicographical data support on Wikidata]].

Since the start of Wikidata in 2012, the multilingual knowledge base was mainly focused on concepts: Q-items are related to a thing or an idea, not to the word describing it. Starting now, Wikidata stores a new type of data: words, phrases and sentences, in many languages, described in many languages. This information will be stored in new types of entities, called Lexemes, Forms and Senses. 

The goal of lexicographical data on Wikidata is to provide a structured and machine-readable way to describe words and phrases in multiple languages, stored in a same place, reusable under CC-0. In the near future, this data will be available for Wiktionaries and other projects to reuse, as much as you want to.

For now, we’re at the first steps of this project: the new data structure has been released on Wikidata, and we’re looking for people to try it, and give us feedback on what is working or not. Participating to this project is the opportunity for you to have a voice in it, to make sure that your needs and requests are taken in account very early in the process, and to start populating Wikidata with words in your language!

Here’s how you can try lexicographical data on Wikidata:
* First of all, if you’re not familiar with the data model, I encourage you to have a look at [[d:Wikidata:Lexicographical data/Documentation|the documentation page]]. If you’re not familiar with Wikidata at all, I suggest [[d:Help:Contents|this page]] as a start point.
* You can also [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:AllPages?from=&amp;to=&amp;namespace=146 look at the Lexemes that already exists] (search features will be improved in the future).
* When you feel ready to create a word, go on [[d:Special:NewLexeme]].
* If some properties that you need are missing, you can [[d:Wikidata:Property proposal/Lexemes|suggest them on this page]] (if you’re not sure how to do it, just let a message on the talk page and someone will help you).
* The main discussion page is [[d:Wikidata:Lexicographical data]]. Here, you can ask for help, suggest ways to organize the data, but also leave feedback: if you encounter any bug or issue, let us know. We’re looking especially to know what are the most important features for you to be worked on next.

In any case, feel free to contact me if you have a question or problem, I’ll be very happy to help.

Cheers, [[:d:User:Lea Lacroix (WMDE)|Lea Lacroix (WMDE)]] 12:20, 23 Mei 2018 (UTC)

== Update on page issues on mobile web ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
'''Update on page issues on mobile web'''

{{int:please-translate}}
Hi everyone. The [[mw:Reading/Web/Team|Readers web team]] has recently begun working on exposing issue templates on the mobile website. Currently, details about issues with page content are generally hidden on the mobile website. This leaves readers unaware of the reliability of the pages they are reading. The goal of this project is to improve awareness of particular issues within an article on the mobile web. We will do this by changing the visual styling of page issues.

So far, we have [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues|drafted a proposal on the design and implementation]] of the project.  We were also able to run [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues/Research Results|user testing on the proposed designs]].  The tests so far have positive results. Here is a quick summary of what we learned:
* The new treatment increases awareness of page issues among participants. This is true particularly when they are in a more evaluative/critical mode.
* Page issues make sense to readers and they understand how they work
* Readers care about page issues and consider them important
* Readers had overwhelmingly positive sentiments towards Wikipedia associated with learning about page issues
Our next step would be to start implementing these changes. We wanted to reach out to you for any concerns, thoughts, and suggestions you might have before beginning development. Please [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues|visit the project page]] where we have more information and mockups of how this may look. Please [[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues|leave feedback on the talk page]].

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
''({{int:please-translate}})''

Hi all,

I'm preparing a change in who can edit sitewide CSS/JS pages. (These are pages like &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:Common.css&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:Vector.js&lt;/code&gt; 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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS|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 ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
''({{int:please-translate}})''

Hi all!

To improve the security of our readers and editors, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed. (These are pages like &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:Common.css&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:Vector.js&lt;/code&gt; which contain code that is executed in the browsers of users of the site.)
A new user group, &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Interface administrators|interface-admin]]&lt;/code&gt;, 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 &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;.css&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;.js&lt;/code&gt; that is either in the &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:&lt;/code&gt; namespace or is another user's user subpage).

You can learn more about the motivation behind the change [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS|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!

A few months ago, we asked you for feedback about [[d:Wikidata:Wiktionary/Sitelinks|Cognate]], the system allowing interwikilinks between Wiktionaries (on main namespace). Several community members gave some suggestions, one of them was to provide statistics about these interwikilinks.

The Wikidata team is pleased to present you the '''[https://wdcm.wmflabs.org/Wiktionary_CognateDashboard/ Wiktionary Cognate Dashboard]''', a website presenting a lot of interesting information about how Wiktionaries are connected to each others. You can find there, for example:
* the most interlinked Wiktionary entries not having a page on your Wiktionary
* the number of interlinks between each possible pair of Wiktionaries
* visualizations of the relationships between different Wiktionaries

To learn more about the tool, you can have a look at [[m:Wiktionary Cognate Dashboard|the documentation]] (please help us translating it in your language!). The interface of the tool itself can also be translated in other languages by [[m:Wiktionary Cognate Dashboard/Interface|using this page]].

If you find a bug, please let a comment on [[phab:T166487|this Phabricator task]] or ping me onwiki. Thanks a lot, [[:d:User:Lea Lacroix (WMDE)|Lea Lacroix (WMDE)]] 13:08, 14 Augustus 2018 (UTC)

Hi all,

as [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS/announcement 2|announced previously]], permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed: only members of the &lt;code&gt;[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Interface administrators|interface-admin]]&lt;/code&gt; ({{int:group-interface-admin}}) 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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS|Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS]]. If you encounter any unexpected problems, please contact me or file a bug.

Thanks!&lt;br /&gt;

The [[foundation:|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 [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|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 [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20170503T14 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 [[wikitech:Switch Datacenter#Schedule for 2018 switch|read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org]]. Any changes will be announced in the schedule.  There will be more notifications about this.

== The GFDL license on Commons ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks&quot;&gt;

This has been posted here because your wiki allows local file uploads. {{int:please-translate}}.

Commons [[c:Commons:Village pump/Proposals/Archive/2018/08#No longer allow GFDL for some new uploads|will no longer allow]] uploads of photos, paintings, drawings, audio and video that use the GFDL [[c:Commons:Licensing|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. — [[User:Alexis Jazz|Alexis Jazz]], &lt;small&gt;distributed by [[User:Johan (WMF)|Johan]] using [[m:Special:MyLanguage/MassMessage|MassMessage]]&lt;/small&gt;

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

{{int:please-translate}}
[[File:Page_issues_-_mobile_banner_example.jpg|thumb|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 [[wikidata:Q5962027|Template:Unreferenced]] or [[Wikidata:Q5619503|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 &quot;Learn more&quot; link to get more information.

For template editors we have [[mw:Recommendations_for_mobile_friendly_articles_on_Wikimedia_wikis#Making_page_issues_(ambox_templates)_mobile_friendly|some recommendations on how to make templates that are mobile-friendly]] and also further [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile_Page_Issues|documentation on our work so far]].

If you have questions about formatting templates for mobile, [[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile_Page_Issues|please leave a note on the project talk page]] or [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/1/?projects=Readers-Web-Backlog file a task in Phabricator] and we will help you.

A new beta feature will soon be released on all wikis: The [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|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 [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons/Configuration file documentation|configuration file]]''' if you want to use this feature.

The FileExporter has already been a beta feature on [https://www.mediawiki.org mediawiki.org], [https://meta.wikimedia.org meta.wikimedia], deWP, faWP, arWP, koWP and on [https://wikisource.org 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 [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|on the project page]]. 

As always, feedback is highly appreciated. If you want to test the FileExporter, please activate it in your [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|user preferences]]. The best place for feedback is the [[mw:Help_talk:Extension:FileImporter|central talk page]]. Thank you from Wikimedia Deutschland's [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes|Technical Wishes project]].

The Wikimedia Foundation is planning a [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019|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:  
# First, [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019/Participant group sign-up|sign up your group here.]]  
# 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.  
# 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:
## When you want to discuss a topic with your community, what tools work for you, and what problems block you?
## What about talk pages works for newcomers, and what blocks them?
## What do others struggle with in your community about talk pages?
## What do you wish you could do on talk pages, but can't due to the technical limitations?
## What are the important aspects of a &quot;wiki discussion&quot;?
# Finally, please go to [[mw:Talk:Talk pages consultation 2019|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 [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019/Tools in use|how your group communicates]].

You can read more about [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019|the overall process]] on mediawiki.org. If you have questions or ideas, you can [[mw:Talk:Talk pages consultation 2019|leave feedback about the consultation process]] in the language you prefer.

== Wikimedia Foundation Medium-Term Plan feedback request ==

{{int:please-translate}}

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; class=&quot;mw-content-ltr&quot;&gt;The Wikimedia Foundation has published a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_Medium-term_plan_2019|Medium-Term Plan proposal]] covering the next 3–5 years. We want your feedback! Please leave all comments and questions, in any language, on [[m:Talk:Wikimedia_Foundation_Medium-term_plan_2019|the talk page]], by April 20. {{Int:Feedback-thanks-title}} [[m:User:Quiddity (WMF)|Quiddity (WMF)]] ([[m:User talk:Quiddity (WMF)|talk]]) 17:35, 12 April 2019 (UTC)&lt;/div&gt;

== Uitspraakriglyne ==

Is daar iewers riglyne wat geld vir die IPA-weergawe van uitspraak op die Afrikaanse Wiktionary? Ek sou graag wou weet – slegs as voorbeeld – waarom &quot;mooi&quot; getranskribeer word as [moːɪ̯]? In al my jare wat ek in die Afrikaanse taalkunde werk, het ek dit nog nie teëgekom dat ons 'n [ɪ] in Afrikaans kry nie; ook nie dat ons nonsillabiese annotasie soos [ɪ̯] gebruik nie. Dit is meer gebruiklik om dit te transkribeer as [moi], of in my dialek as [mɔi]. Dit is selfs deesdae gebruiklik om nie lengte [ː] aan te dui nie, behalwe in gevalle waar rekking ter sprake is. 
'n Ander geval is byvoorbeeld die aanduiding van sillabegrense, wat lyk asof dit nie konsekwent gedoen word nie. Ek sou byvoorbeeld &quot;die mooiste&quot; transkribeer as [di ˈmoi.stə], waar [ˈ] primêre klem aandui en [.] 'n sillabegrens.
Ek wil nou nie dwars wees en goed gaan verander as daar iewers 'n verantwoorde riglyn hieroor bestaan nie. Met die samestelling van die IFA-tabel in die nuutste Afrikaanse woordelys en spelreëls (2017) het ons baie moeite gedoen om dit ooreenkomstig nuutste insigte en praktyke te probeer standaardiseer. Maar dit is natuurlik nie die alfa en die omega nie; ek luister graag as daar hier ander riglyne geld. [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 06:04, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek weet niks van Afrikaanse transkribering nie. Jy kan seker reg het dat [ɪ]  ontereg is vir Afrikaans. Vir my Nederlandse ore lyk dit of dieselfde geld vir [o].  Ek hoor net [ɔ] of 'n tweeklank [ʊə] of so. Ek dink egter dat vir tweeklanke 'n nie-sillabiese annotasie verdedigbaar is. Mooi word mos nie as  tweelettergrepig moo-ïe uitgespreek nie. Jy sou selfs aan [mɔj] kan dink. 

:Ek stem saam dat : rekking behoort aan te dui. In Nederlands het ek daarvoor baie stryd moet lewer. 

:Maar IFA is altyd net 'n ''benadering'' en jy kan baie baklei hoe om dit te doen. Dis hoekom ek probeer om Oesjaar se kletslêers in te voer. Manie het die meeste IFA ingevoer en hy het lank geleë verdwyn.

:Maar as jy 'n konsistente manier het om IFA in te voer sou ek dit graag sien. Maar wel dat JY die werk doen. Ons het geen behoefte aan mense wat werkopdragte kom gee nie.
::Dankie vir die antwoord. Ek is DEFINITIEF nie hier om opdragte te gee nie; wil graag help waar ek kan. Daarom dat ek ook eers vra, voor ek sommer net lostrek en na eie goeddunke optree. 
::Ek het ook 'n PhD-student wat tans werk aan 'n uitspraakwoordeboek vir Afrikaans; dit sou gaaf wees as 'n mens die data hier en haar data met mekaar kon belyn (in beide rigtings). Ons sou egter wel 'n hele klomp goed sistematies kon/wou doen - selfs met 'n transkripsieprotokol wat as vertrekpunt dien en wat 'n mens dan hier beskikbaar kan stel vir toekomstige gebruikers.
::Ek dink ook ons sal probeer om dit sistematies te doen deur gebruik te maak van die &quot;Python Wikipedia Robot Framework&quot;. Ons is nog eers besig om die kode te verken, ook met die ondersteuning van [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]]
::Tot slot, oor die nie-sillabiese annotasie: Anna Coetzee het, na my wete, in haar werk altyd breking met 'n halfvokaal aangedui, dus bv. iets soos [mɔʲi]. Soos jy sê, 'n mens sou seker vir ure hieroor kon argumenteer; dalk kom 'n mens dan nie eers by 'n antwoord uit nie ... Die AWS se houding was dus 'n bietjie pragmaties: Transkribeer sonder die fynste fonetiese wisseling wat moontlik is, maar verskaf 'n transkripsie wat so algemeen as moontlik geld.
::Dankie vir al jou antwoorde. Gewaardeerd! [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 14:37, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

== Arabiese transliterasie ==

Wat is die bron vir die Arabiese transliterasies wat gebruik word in die Afrikaanse Wiktionary? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 06:07, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek het geen idee. Manie het dit ingevoer en hy is lank weg. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 10:54, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::As die geldigheid (en bron) hiervan nie geverifieer kan word nie, sal dit nie beter wees om dit liewer sistematies te verwyder nie? Dis tog eintlik mos 'n beginsel van Wikimedia dat inligting ten minste geverifieerd aangebied moet word? Hoor graag wat jou gevoel hieroor is. [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 14:39, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:::Nee [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 15:46, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::::Miskien moet jy hierdie bladsy gaan lees: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability. Dit sal jou dalk help om my vraag beter te verstaan? Of geld dit dus nie Wiktionary nie? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 05:25, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek glo die Arabiese transliterasies kan redelik maklik bevestig word. Dit is net Afrikaans met 'n ander alfabet. Dit behoort standaardreëls te hê, maar ek is nie so talentvol nie. [[Gebruiker:PixelVulpix|PixelVulpix]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:PixelVulpix|kontak]])
::Dankie, [[Gebruiker:PixelVulpix|PixelVulpix]]. Die enigste transliterasiereëls waarvan ek bewus is, is dié wat Achmat Davids in sy verhandeling ''The Afrikaans of the Cape Muslims from 1815 to 1915'' (onlangs gepubliseer as ''Die Afrikaans van die Kaapse Moslems'') bespreek het. As dit die basis is van die inligting hier op Wiktionary, en as dit noukeurig ingevoer is, dan het ek vertroue daarin. Maar dit pla my dat 'n mens nie die betroubaarheid daarvan kan verifieer nie. Ken jy dalk vir Manie waarna vroeër verwys is? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 05:25, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::: Die Arabies was nog altyd verdag en ek het al talle kere onsuksesvol met Manie probeer kontak maak. Interessant genoeg kan mens die Arabiese teks kopieer en met Google Translate vertaal, wat jou soms (so amper) by die oorspronklike woord terugbring. As voorbeeld: &quot;Mooi&quot; -&gt; &quot;مَُويْ&quot; -&gt; &quot;Moi&quot;. Ander werk weer glad nie: &quot;baie&quot; -&gt; &quot;بَیِی&quot; -&gt; &quot;PII&quot;.  Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 05:48, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::::Ah, dankie, [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]]. Dis 'n slim verifikasiemetode waaraan ek nie gedink het nie. Gegewe die tekortkominge van Google Translate kan 'n mens natuurlik nie volkome daarop vertrou nie, maar by 'n gebrek aan ander metodes, gee dit al 'n eerste aanduiding. 
::::Ek probeer ook in my netwerke bepaal of Afrikaans enigsins nog produktief in Arabiese skrif voorgestel word. Tot dusver kon niemand nog bevestig dat dit wel só gebruik word nie. Dit blyk op hierdie stadium of dit slegs die oudste geskrifte in Afrikaans is wat in Arabiese skrif geskryf is, maar nie meer hede den dage nie. 'n Mens sou dan natuurlik kon wonder of dit dan nodig is hier? Ek sal in ieder geval laat weet as iemand met nuwe inligting vorendag kom. [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 08:29, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek het oral rondgevra en geskryf en dit blyk dat die Arabiese skrifvorm van die 1800's (soos wyd bekend is) tot die 1950's in Moesliem- religieuse tekste gebruik is. 'n Mens moet dus wonder waarom woorde soos dievolgende in Arabiese skrif aangebied word: 
::*[[anode]]; 
::*die taalkundige term [[volmaak verlede tyd]] (wat in ieder geval hoogs ongebruiklik is);
::*die taalnaam [[Boekmaal]] (waarvan ek hierdie spelling ook nie in ander woordeboeke kry nie);
::*[[oorbelastingseenheid]] (motoronderdeel);
::*[[lugvaartmaatskappy]].
:Dat 'n woord soos [[wafaat]] of [[berg]] of [[hen]] in Arabiese skrif voorgestel word, sou natuurlik sin kon maak teen die religieuse agtergrond wat ek hier bo noem. In sulke gevalle sou 'n mens natuurlik sonder meer die Arabieseskrifinligting wou behou.
:My voorstel is dus dat 'n mens alles met Arabiese skrif onttrek, evalueer en dan besluit wat behou moet word en wat nie.

== Spelling tot 1909 ==
[[Lêer:Akedamieberig.jpg|regs|300px|Dié berig oor die Akademie se stigting het in die koerant Het Westen verskyn.]]
Wat is die bron vir die inligting onder &quot;Spelling tot 1909&quot;? En wat is die noodsaak hiervan? En waarom spesifiek 1909?
Ek sien byvoorbeeld onder &quot;mooi&quot; die volgende vorme: mooi-ër, mójer, mó-jer. Waarom is daar koppeltekens in mooi-ër en mó-jer? Is dit inderdaad so gespel? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 06:11, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Dit is ook Manie se erfenis. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 10:54, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::Insgelyks, as die korrektheid en geldigheid hiervan nie kontroleerbaar is nie, moet ons dit nie liewer verwyder nie? Ek sou veel eerder wou sien dat 'n mens van die vroeë Afrikaanse woordelyste as basis gebruik om van die inligting outomaties te kontroleer; waar dit wel geverifieer kan word, die data te behou; en dan die bronverwysing by te voeg. Jou gevoel? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 14:45, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:::Nee 
::::Ek het namelik baie meer respek vir iemand baie meer werk verrig het as jy. En wat kennis het gehad van aspekte van die Afrikaanse taal wat jy dalk nie besit nie of nie wil besit nie.[[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 15:48, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)
:::::Ag, aarde, ek het nie tyd vir sulke disrespekvolle kommunikasie nie. En ek is nogal deur ander gebruikers gewaarsku teen jou ... Onthou asb. dat Wikipedia/Wiktionary groter is as jy (en jou ego), [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]]. 
:::::Ek hoor graag wat ander gebruikers se gedagtes is. [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 05:02, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:::: Die spelling voor 1909 kom moontlik uit S.J. du Toit se &quot;Patriot woordeboek&quot;, maar ek het nie nou tyd om te bevestig nie. Dis ook opmerklik dat die Suid-Afrikaanse Akademie vir Wetenskap en Kuns in 1909 gesig is (enkele jare na die aanvang van Tweede Taalbeweging). Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 06:07, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:::::Dankie, [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]]. Ek onderneem om 'n paar sistematiese steekproewe te doen om te sien of die &quot;Patriot woordeboek&quot; inderdaad die bron hiervoor is. Ek neem aan ek kan al die woorde wat só gemerk is op Wiktionary sal kan onttrek; ek beskou dit as deel van my leerkurwe op Wiktionary :-) [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 08:34, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek kon nog nie 'n manier kry om alle woorde met &quot;Spelling voor 1909&quot; te onttrek nie en het daarom gebruikgemaak van &quot;Lukrake Afr. woord&quot; (in die linkerkantse menu) om 'n dertigtal gevalle te ondersoek. As vergelykende bronne het ek Du Toit &amp; Kie se ''Patriot-woordeboek'' (1902; 1968-uitgawe) en Van der Merwe se ''Vroeë Afrikaanse woordelyste'' (1971) gebruik. Ek moet helaas rapporteer dat ek slegs 'n enkele geval in enige van hierdie bronne kon opspoor, te wete &quot;form&quot; onder [[vorm]] ... Enkele voorbeelde van woorde wat ek ondersoek het:
::[[Afrikaner]], [[mooi]] (se ander woordvorme), [[aanwysende voornaamwoord]] (gesoek as afsonderlike woorde), [[voltooid verlede tyd]] (gesoek as afsonderlike woorde), [[Februarie]], en so meer.
:Ek is dus helaas steeds nie oortuig van die korrektheid van die inligting wat hier op Wiktionary verskaf word nie. Ek sou dus twee voorstelle wou maak:
::#Dat 'n mens alle bestaande inligting onder &quot;Spelling voor 1909&quot; onttrek en sistematies kontroleer; en
::#Dat 'n mens probeer om die woordelyste in bogenoemde bronne te onttrek en in te voeg by bestaande en nuwe inskrywings hier op Wiktionary (en dan sulke bladsy te voorsien van 'n verwysing met behulp van die templaat.

== Wysigings aan sjablone? ==

M.b.t. tot die sjablone:
# Waarom word die begrip &quot;teengesteldes&quot; in '''!-- Teengesteldes --''' gebruik? Bedoel dit eintlik &quot;teenoorgesteldes&quot;, oftewel &quot;antonieme&quot;? As die term &quot;sinonieme&quot; in '''!-- Sinonieme --''' gebruik word, sou ek graag wou voorstel dat 'n mens '''!-- Antonieme --''' en {{-anto-}} gebruik. 
# Ek sou ook graag wou sien dat '''!-- Antonieme --''' direk op '''!-- Sinonieme --''' volg, aangesien hulle konseptueel verbandhoudend is (d.i. op semantiese verhoudings dui).
# Ek besef dit is onnodig punteneurig, maar kan {{-afgelyd.w-}} en {{-aflyd-}} nie maar onderskeidelik {{-afgeleid.w-}} en {{-afleid-}} word nie?
# Ook punteneurig, maar kan {{-telwd-}} nie maar {{-telw-}} word nie? Dit volg dan nie net die patroon van die ander gevalle nie (bv. {{-voegw-}}, ens.), maar ook die amptelike afkorting vir dié woordsoort. Insgelyks sou 'n mens kon oorweeg om {{-werkw-}} te vervang met die goed gevestigde afkorting &quot;ww.&quot; – dus iets soos {{-ww-}}. 
# Konseptueel hoort '''!-- Afleiding --''' vir my nie waar hy tans staan nie, maar eerder nader aan '''!-- Woordsoort --''', en eintlik liefs naby iets soos '''!-- Etimologie --'''.
# Sou '''!-- Etimologie --''' in alle sjablone bygevoeg kon word?
# Onder '''!-- Afleiding --''' kan die gedeelte ''':Van ... afgelei.''' eerder wees: '''Afgelei van [[...]]'''. Sowieso moet die ellipsstippels m.i. tussen dubbele blokhakies wees.

:'n Gedeelte van die antwoorde op jou vrae vind jy as jy die 'wysig'-knoppie druk en kyk onder die bewerkingsvlak. Links sien jy 'n drop down wat 'Wiktionary' sê. Regs daarvan sien jy heelparty sjablone wat die huidige formaat weergee in hulle juiste volgorde. Ons (eintlik: ek, want ons het stilgestaan) gebruik ook liewer sinoniem en antoniem. Die sjabloon vir werkwoord heet &lt;nowiki&gt;{{-ww.-}}. 'n Sjabloon {{-afgelyd.w-}} bestaan glad nie.  Die sjabloon {{afgeleid}} stel mens is staat om woorde te wys wat afgeleides is van die lemmawoord en hou min met die woordsoort en glad niks met die lemmawoord se etimologie verband nie. Ja, jy sou {{-telwd-}} kan verander in {{-telw-}} maar vergeet nie dat dit baie werk oplewer nie wat van jou sal moet kom. Dieselfde geld vir etimologie. Etimologieë kan nie altyd terggevind word nie en lewer baie werk op. Dubbele blokhakies skep 'n wikiskakel en kan dus nie rond ellipsstippels gebruik word nie.&lt;/nowiki&gt;
[[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 10:46, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::Ek het my boodskap baseer op die inligting wat hier beskikbaar is: https://af.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Sjabloon/Afrikaans. Daar word byvoorbeeld verwys na {{-werkw-}}, {{-aflyd-}}, en so meer. Ek sien dan wel onderaan die bladsy (soos jy aangedui het) {{-ww.-}}, {{-antonieme-}}, ens. Dit lyk dus asof die teks by die skakel hier bo nie korreleer met die werklikheid nie. Dit is nogal vir nuwelinge soos ek erg verwarrend. Kan ons dus die bladsy bywerk, sonder dat iemand te kwaad gaan wees? Ek is net nogal bang, juis omdat ek 'n nuweling is hier.
::Kan iets soos {{-telwd-}} nie deur 'n robot verander word na {{-telw.-}} nie? Waar dien 'n mens sulke versoeke in?
:::Die beste kan jy dit [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|hier]] indien. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 15:50, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)
::Wat ek ook bedoel het met [[...]] is dat daar op bogenoemde bladsy gebruikgemaak word van [[...]] om te illustreer dat die ellipsstipels met die woord vervang moet word.

== Update on the consultation about office actions ==

Hello all, 

Last month, the Wikimedia Foundation's Trust &amp; Safety team [[:en:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)/Archive_152#Announcement_of_forthcoming_temporary_and_partial_ban_tool_consultation|announced]] a future consultation about partial and/or temporary [[m:Special:MyLanguage/office actions|office actions]]. We want to let you know that the '''draft version''' of this consultation has now been [[:m:Office_actions/Community_consultation_on_partial_and_temporary_office_actions/draft|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. '''[[:m:Talk:Office_actions/Community_consultation_on_partial_and_temporary_office_actions/draft|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 [[:m:Office_actions/Community_consultation_on_partial_and_temporary_office_actions/draft|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety|Trust &amp; Safety team]] 08:02, 16 Augustus 2019 (UTC)

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 [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|on Meta]] and [[m:Talk:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|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.

Hello, 

In a [[:en:Wikipedia:Community_response_to_the_Wikimedia_Foundation%27s_ban_of_Fram/Official_statements#Board_statement|recent statement]], the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees [[:en:Wikipedia:Community_response_to_the_Wikimedia_Foundation%27s_ban_of_Fram/Official_statements#Board_statement|requested that staff hold a consultation]] to &quot;re-evaluat[e] or add community input to the two new office action policy tools (temporary and partial Foundation bans)&quot;.

Accordingly, the Foundation's Trust &amp; Safety team invites all Wikimedians [[:m:Office actions/Community consultation on partial and temporary office actions/09 2019|to join this consultation and give their feedback]] from 30 September to 30 October. 

How can you help?

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

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

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

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

== Feedback wanted on Desktop Improvements project ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
{{Int:Please-translate}}

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

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

We would like individual feedback on the following:

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

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

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

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

As well as the following constraints:

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

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

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

== Movement Learning and Leadership Development Project ==

Hello

The Wikimedia Foundation’s Community Development team is seeking to learn more about the way volunteers learn and develop into the many different roles that exist in the movement. Our goal is to build a movement informed framework that provides shared clarity and outlines accessible pathways on how to grow and develop skills within the movement. To this end, we are looking to speak with you, our community to learn about your journey as a Wikimedia volunteer. Whether you joined yesterday or have been here from the very start, we want to hear about the many ways volunteers join and contribute to our movement.

To learn more about the project, [[:m:special:MyLanguage/Movement Learning and Leadership Development Project|please visit the Meta page]]. If you are interested in participating in the project, please complete [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSegM07N1FK_s0VUECM61AlWOthwdn5zQOlVsa2vaKcx13BwZg/viewform?usp=sf_link this simple Google form].

== Additional interface for edit conflicts on talk pages ==

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

You might know the new interface for edit conflicts (currently a beta feature). Now, Wikimedia Germany is designing an additional interface to solve edit conflicts on talk pages. This interface is shown to you when you write on a discussion page and another person writes a discussion post in the same line and saves it before you do. With this additional editing conflict interface you can adjust the order of the comments and edit your comment.  We are inviting everyone to have a look at [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Edit Conflicts#Edit conflicts on talk pages|the planned feature]]. Let us know what you think on our [[mw:Help talk:Two Column Edit Conflict View|central feedback page]]! -- For the Technical Wishes Team: [[m:User:Max Klemm (WMDE)|Max Klemm (WMDE)]] 14:14, 26 Februarie 2020 (UTC)

== Feedback on movement names ==

{{int:Hello}}. Apologies if you are not reading this message in your native language. {{int:please-translate}} if necessary. {{Int:Feedback-thanks-title}}

There are a lot of conversations happening about the future of our movement names. We hope that you are part of these discussions and that your community is represented.

Since 16 June, the Foundation Brand Team has been running a [https://wikimedia.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9G2dN7P0T7gPqpD survey] in 7 languages about [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Communications/Wikimedia brands/2030 movement brand project/Naming convention proposals|3 naming options]]. There are also community members sharing concerns about renaming in a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community open letter on renaming|Community Open Letter]]. 

Our goal in this call for feedback is to hear from across the community, so we encourage you to participate in the survey, the open letter, or both. The survey will go through 7 July in all timezones. Input from the survey and discussions will be analyzed and published on Meta-Wiki.

Thanks for thinking about the future of the movement, --[[:m:Talk:Communications/Wikimedia brands/2030 movement brand project|The Brand Project team]], 19:39, 2 Julie 2020 (UTC)

== Announcing a new wiki project! Welcome, Abstract Wikipedia ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;

Hi all,

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

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

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

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

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

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

There is much to do as we begin designing a plan for Abstract Wikipedia in close collaboration with our communities. I encourage you to get involved by going to the project page and joining the new mailing list &lt;ref&gt;[[mail:abstract-wikipedia|Abstract Wikipedia mailing list]]&lt;/ref&gt;. We recognize that Abstract Wikipedia is ambitious, but we also recognize its potential. We invite you all to join us on a new, unexplored path.

Yours,

Katherine Maher (Executive Director, Wikimedia Foundation)

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

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
The [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|FileExporter and FileImporter]] will become a default features on all wikis until August 7, 2020. They are planned to help you to move files from your local wiki to Wikimedia Commons easier while keeping all original file information (Description, Source, Date, Author, View History) intact. Additionally, the move is documented in the files view history. 
How does it work? 

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

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

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

If you want to know more about the [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|FileImporter extension]] or the [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes|Technical Wishes Project]], follow the links. --For the Technical Wishes Team: &lt;/div&gt;[[User:Max Klemm (WMDE)|Max Klemm (WMDE)]] 09:13, 6 Augustus 2020 (UTC)

[[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch 2020|Lees hierdie boodskap in 'n ander taal]]

Die [[foundation:|Wikimedia Foundation]] toets sy sekondêre datasentrum.  Dit sal verseker dat Wikipedia en die ander Wikimedia wiki's aanlyn kan bly, selfs ná 'n ramp. Om seker te maak dat alles werk, moet die afdeling Wikimedia Technology 'n beplande toets aflê. Hierdie toets sal wys of hulle betroubaar van die een datasentrum na die ander kan oorskakel. Dit verg baie spanne om voor te berei vir die toets en beskikbaar te wees om enige onverwagte probleme op te los. 

Hulle sal alle verkeer na die sekondêre datacenter op '''Dinsdag, September 1 2020''' oorskakel.

Ongelukkig, as gevolg van 'n paar beperkings in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki? | MediaWiki]], alle redigering moet stop terwyl ons oorskakel.  Ons vra om verskoning vir hierdie ontwrigting en werk daarna om dit in die toekoms tot die minimum te beperk. 

'''U sal alle wiki's vir 'n kort tydjie kan lees, maar nie kan redigeer nie.'''

*U kan Dinsdag 1 September nie tot 'n uur lank wysig nie. Die toets begin om [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20200901T14 14:00 UTC] (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, en in Nieu-Seeland om 02:00 NZST op Woensdag 2 September).
*As u gedurende hierdie tye probeer redigeer of stoor, sal u 'n foutboodskap sien.  Ons hoop dat geen wysigings verlore sal gaan gedurende hierdie minute nie, maar ons kan dit nie waarborg nie.  As u die foutboodskap sien, wag dan totdat alles weer normaal is.  Dan moet u u redigering kan stoor.  Maar ons beveel aan dat u eers 'n afskrif van u wysigings maak, net vir ingeval.

''Ander effekte'':

*Agtergrondgeleenthede sal stadiger wees en sommige sal moontlik afgeneem word. Rooi skakels word moontlik nie so vinnig soos gewoonlik opgedateer nie. As u 'n artikel skep wat reeds elders gekoppel is, sal die skakel langer as gewoonlik rooi bly. Sommige skrifte met 'n lang hardloop moet gestop word.
*Daar sal kode gevries word vir die week van 1 September 2020.  Nie-noodsaaklike kode-ontplooiings sal nie plaasvind nie.

Hierdie projek kan indien nodig uitgestel word.  Jy kan [[wikitech:Switch Datacenter#Schedule for 2018 switch|die skedule lees by wikitech.wikimedia.org]]. Enige veranderinge sal in die skedule aangekondig word.  Daar sal meer kennisgewings hieroor wees.  '''Deel asseblief hierdie inligting met u gemeenskap.'''

{{int:Hello}}. Please help pick a name for the new Wikimedia wiki project. This project will be a wiki where the community can work together on a library of [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Abstract_Wikipedia/Wiki_of_functions_naming_contest#function|functions]]. The community can create new functions, read about them, discuss them, and share them. Some of these functions will be used to help create language-independent Wikipedia articles that can be displayed in any language, as part of the Abstract Wikipedia project. But functions will also be usable in many other situations.

There will be two rounds of voting, each followed by legal review of candidates, with voting beginning on 29 September and 27 October. Our goal is to have a final project name selected on 8 December.

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

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

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|MediaWiki]], all editing must stop while the switch is made.  We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future. 

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

*You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Tuesday, October 27. The test will start at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1603807200 14:00 UTC] (14:00 WET, 15:00 CET, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 03:00 NZDT on Wednesday October 28).
*If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message.  We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it.  If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal.  Then you should be able to save your edit.  But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

''Other effects'':

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

This project may be postponed if necessary.  You can [[wikitech:Switch_Datacenter#Schedule_for_2020_switch|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.

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

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

By this message, I would like to invite you to comment [[:m:Requests for comment/Refine global bot policy|in the global RFC]], to voice your opinion about this matter.

Thank you for your time.

Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;

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

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
''Sorry for sending this message in English. Translations are available on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Announcements/Announcement Wikidata descriptions in watchlist|this page]]. Feel free to translate it in more languages!''

As you may know, you can include changes coming from Wikidata in your Watchlist and Recent Changes ([[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-watchlist|in your preferences]]). Until now, this feature didn’t always include changes made on Wikidata descriptions due to the way Wikidata tracks the data used in a given article.

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

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

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

If you encounter any issue or want to provide feedback, feel free to use [[Phab:T191831|this Phabricator ticket]]. Thanks!

== Universal Code of Conduct enforcement consultations ==

Dear all,

you may know me under my Wikimedia username – [[w:User:Nadzik|Nadzik]]. I came here last year to contribute to your project as well as I can. I am sorry for writing to you in English, but this will make the message more understandable, than using an automatic translator. Feel free to translate my post!

Over the next few weeks, [[w:Wikimedia Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] will be consulting on the implementation and the enforcement of the [[:meta:Universal Code of Conduct/Draft review/en|Universal Code of Conduct]], which will constitute an appendix to the currently applicable [https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Terms_of_Use/en Terms of Use].

=== What is the Universal Code of Conduct? ===
The UCoC is intended to serve as a document that will incorporate the basic standards of behaviour in order to standardize them across all Wikimedia projects. It aims to include a list of inappropriate behaviours that will not be accepted in our projects, and also takes care of the safety of all users.

It is also intended to provide a common ground in those communities that do not have their own specific regulations and rules on this subject. It will widely help smaller and younger projects that have not yet had the opportunity to write down their own rules related to the inappropriate behaviour of their contributors.

[[:m:Universal Code of Conduct/Initial 2020 Consultations|Consultations carried out in 2019 and in the first half of 2020]] allowed for the preparation of a preliminary proposal of rules, however, there are still no provisions related to the implementation of the UCoC. To this end consultations started in many Wikimedia project communities.

=== How will the consultations work? ===
In January and February 2021, nine language facilitators from the Wikimedia Foundation will engage in a series of consultations with different language communities (including Wikidata and Commons user communities). I've also asked to be allowed consulting with the Afrikaans community, as I've had the pleasure to work with some of you before. In the coming weeks, we will have the opportunity to talk together about your views, visions and ideas for implementation in connection with the introduction of UCoC .

The goal of the Wikimedia Foundation is to obtain information from various communities, and only on the basis of the currently conducted consultations, our team will prepare and present reports and various possibilities of implementing UCoC into force. I encourage everyone to share their opinion with me and with other members of our community. Starting in February, some of you may also be contacted by a dedicated affiliate outreach or user group outreach.

=== How to participate? ===
Feel free to express your opinion in the most convenient way for you. To enable everyone willing to participate in consultations, they will be conducted in several ways:
# Village pump discussion at [[w:Wikipedia:Geselshoekie#Universal Code of Conduct enforcement consultations|af.wikipedia]]
# Opening a new thread on my [[w:User talk:MNadzikiewicz (WMF)|User talk page]]
# Emailing me [[Spesiaal:Stuur_e-pos/MNadzikiewicz_(WMF)|directly via Wikimail]]

Additionally, in the coming days, an anonymous poll will be launched for community members who would like to privately convey their feelings about the UCoC, as well as the spheres surrounding it (the state of the rules in our projects, unwanted situations and other developments you are willing to discuss).

I also invite you to visit [[:meta:Universal Code of Conduct/FAQ|FAQ-page]], that already has answers to most frequently asked questions. If you have any questions, ping me, to make sure that I see your message!

I wish us all a fruitful debate! [[Gebruiker:MNadzikiewicz (WMF)|MNadzikiewicz (WMF)]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:MNadzikiewicz (WMF)|kontak]]) 09:50, 20 Januarie 2021 (UTC)

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

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
{{int:please-translate}}

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 &lt;code&gt;WP:NPOV&lt;/code&gt;, 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, {{SITENAME}} 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 [[:m:User talk:Martin Urbanec|ask me]] if you have any questions about this proposal.

Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; class=&quot;mw-content-ltr&quot;&gt;
=== Universal Code of Conduct Phase 2 ===

{{int:please-translate}}

The [[:wmf:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct|'''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 [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct|'''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 [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee|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 [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations/Discussion|key questions]]. If you are interested in volunteering for either of these roles, please [[:m:Talk:Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations|contact us]] in whatever language you are most comfortable.

To learn more about this work and other conversations taking place, see [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations|Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations]].

{{int:hello}}!

I apologize for sending a message in English. {{int:please-translate}}. According to [[:m:Bot_policy/Implementation#Where_it_is_policy|the list]], your wiki project is currently opted in to the [[:m:Bot_policy#Global_bots|global bot policy]]. As such, I want to let you know about some changes that were made after the [[:m:Requests for comment/Refine global bot policy|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 [[:m:Bot policy/New global bot discussion|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.

[[File:Technical_Wishes_–_Line_numbering_-_2010_wikitext_editor.png|thumb|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 ([[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror extension]]), which is supported in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:WikiEditor|2010]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2017 wikitext editor|2017]] wikitext editors. 

More information can be found on [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Line Numbering|this project page]]. Everyone is invited to test the feature, and to give feedback [[m:talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Line Numbering|on this talk page]].

== Suggested Values ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;  

From April 29, it will be possible to suggest values for parameters in templates. Suggested values can be added to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:TemplateData|TemplateData]] and will then be shown as a drop-down list in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide|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: [[mw:Help:TemplateData#suggestedvalues|[1]]] [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Suggested_values_for_template_parameters|[2]]].

[[File:Reply Tool A-B test comment completion.png|alt=Junior contributors comment completion rate across all participating Wikipedias|thumb|296x296px|When newcomers had the Reply tool and tried to post on a talk page, they were more successful at posting a comment. ([https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ Source])]]

Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of [[mw:Talk pages project/Replying|the Reply Tool]].  The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped [[mw:Talk pages project/Glossary|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 (&quot;default on&quot;) access to the Reply tool were [https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ more likely] to post a comment on a talk page.
* The comments that newer editors made with the Reply Tool were also [https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ 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.

&lt;strong&gt;Looking ahead&lt;/strong&gt;

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 [[phab:T280599|resolve a technical challenge]]. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the [[phab:T267379|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 &quot;{{int:discussiontools-preference-label}}&quot; [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|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]].

The [[foundation:|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. &lt;!--

 They will switch all traffic back to the primary data center on '''Tuesday, October 27 2020'''. --&gt;

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|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 [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1624975200 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 [[wikitech:Switch_Datacenter#Schedule_for_2021_switch|read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org]].

== Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election has come to an end ==

Thank you for participating in the [[:meta:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2021|2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election]]! Voting closed August 31 at 23:59. The official data, including the four most voted candidates, will be announced as soon as the [[:meta:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_committee|Elections Committee]] completes their review of the ballots. The official announcement of the new trustees appointed will happen later, once the selected candidates have been confirmed by the Board.

6,946 community members from 216 wiki projects have voted. This makes 10.2% global participation, 1.1% higher than in the last Board elections. In 2017, 5167 people from 202 wiki projects cast their vote. A full analysis is planned to be published in a few days when the confirmed results are announced. In the meantime, you can check the [[:meta:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2021/Stats|data produced during the election]].

Diversity was an important goal with these elections. Messages about the Board election were translated into 61 languages. This outreach worked well. There were 70 communities with eligible voters voting in this election for the first time. With your help, next year’s Board of Trustees election will be even better.

== The 2022 Community Wishlist Survey will happen in January ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
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:

&lt;div style=&quot;font-style:italic;&quot;&gt;
We will be running the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|dedicated sandbox to leave early ideas for the 2022 wishes]].
&lt;/div&gt;

=== Proposing and wish-fulfillment will happen during the same year ===

In the past, the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Tech|Community Tech]] team has run the Community Wishlist Survey for the following year in November of the prior year. For example, we ran the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2021|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2020|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Community Wishlist Survey|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Community Wishlist Survey|talk page]] (in any language you prefer) or at our Talk to Us meetings.

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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Strategy and Governance|Movement Strategy and Governance team]] on Meta, on [https://t.me/wmboardgovernancechat Telegram], or via email at msg[[File:At sign.svg|16x16px|link=|(_AT_)]]wikimedia.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&lt;section end=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;

[[File:Community Wishlist Survey Lamp.svg|right|200px]]
De '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2022|2022 enquête over de verlanglijst van de gemeenschap]]''' is nu geopend!

De enquête is de manier waarmee gemeenschappen bepalen waar het [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Tech|Community Tech]] team volgend jaar aan moet gaan werken. We moedigen iedereen aan om voorstellen in te dienen voor de deadline op '''23 januari''', of om te reageren op andere voorstellen om ze te helpen verbeteren.

De gemeenschappen stemmen op de voorstellen tussen 28 januari en 11 februari.

Het Community Tech team is gefocussed op hulpmiddelen voor ervaren Wikimedia bewerkers. U kunt voorstellen in elke taal opstellen en wij vertalen deze. Bedankt en we kijken uit naar uw voorstellen!

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.

Hello everyone,

A [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Voting|'''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. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Voter_information|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct|Universal Code of Conduct]] (UCoC) provides a baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire movement. The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines|revised enforcement guidelines]] were published 24 January 2022 as a proposed way to apply the policy across the movement. A [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_noticeboard/January_2022_-_Board_of_Trustees_on_Community_ratification_of_enforcement_guidelines_of_UCoC|Wikimedia Foundation Board statement]] calls for a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Voting|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Voter_information/Volunteer|translate and share important information]]. For more information about the UCoC, please see the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Project|project page]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/FAQ|frequently asked questions]] on Meta-wiki.

There are events scheduled to learn more and discuss:
* A [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Conversations/Panel_Q&amp;A|community panel]] recorded on 18 February 2022 shares perspectives from small- and medium-sized community participants.
* The [[m:Movement Strategy and Governance|Movement Strategy and Governance]] (MSG) team is hosting Conversation Hours on 4 March 2022 at 15:00 UTC. Please [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Conversations|'''sign-up''']] to interact with the project team and the drafting committee about the updated enforcement guidelines and the ratification process.

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; class=&quot;mw-content-ltr&quot;&gt;
&lt;section begin=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;Hello! 

The Movement Strategy and Governance team of the Wikimedia Foundation would like to invite you to the next event about &quot;Regional and Thematic Hubs&quot;. The Wikimedia Movement is in the process of understanding what Regional and Thematic Hubs should be. Our workshop in November was a good start ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Documentation/27 November Workshop|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 ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Dialogue|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. '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Global Conversations March 12, 2022|More information on the event on Meta-wiki]]'''.

Best regards,

[[File:Overview of changes in the VisualEditor template dialog by WMDE Technical Wishes.webm|thumb|Fundamental changes in the template dialog.]]
Hello, more changes around templates are coming to your wiki soon:

The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide#Editing templates|'''template dialog''' in VisualEditor]] and in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2017 wikitext editor|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. 
* [[metawiki:WMDE Technical Wishes/VisualEditor template dialog improvements|project page]], [[metawiki:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/VisualEditor template dialog improvements|talk page]]

In '''syntax highlighting''' ([[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] extension), you can activate a '''colorblind-friendly''' color scheme with a user setting. 
* [[metawiki:WMDE Technical Wishes/Improved Color Scheme of Syntax Highlighting#Color-blind_mode|project page]], [[metawiki:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Improved Color Scheme of Syntax Highlighting|talk page]]

Deployment is planned for May 10. This is the last set of improvements from [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes|WMDE Technical Wishes']] focus area “[[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Templates|Templates]]”. 

We would love to hear your feedback on our talk pages!

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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Community Affairs Committee|Community Affairs committee (CAC)]] of the Board [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/JAYQN3NYKCHQHONMUONYTI6WRKZFQNSC/ 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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee|UCoC Drafting Committees]] have generously offered their time to help shape improvements to the Guidelines. You can read more about them and their work [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee#Revisions_Committee|here]], as well as read [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Drafting_committee/Phase_2_meeting_summaries#2022|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 ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Revision_discussions|Enforcement Guidelines revision discussions]], [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Policy text/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 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;section end=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;

== Desktopverbeteringen-update ==

[[File:Table of contents shown on English Wikipedia 02.webm|thumb]]
; Dit de nieuwe standaard maken
{{int:Hello}}. Ik wilde graag een update geven over het [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop_Improvements|Desktopverbeteringen]]-project, waar het Wikimedia Foundation-webteam de afgelopen jaren aan heeft gewerkt. Ons werk is bijna klaar! 🎉

Wij zouden graag zien dat deze verbeteringen de standaard worden voor lezers en bewerkers op alle wiki's. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color:#fc3;&quot;&gt;In de komende weken zullen we gesprekken beginnen op meer wiki's, waaronder die van jou. 🗓️&lt;/span&gt; We lezen graag uw suggesties!

Het doel van het project is om de interface uitnodigender en comfortabeler te maken voor lezers en nuttiger voor gevorderde gebruikers. Het project bestaat uit een reeks functieverbeteringen die het gemakkelijker maken om te lezen en te leren, binnen de pagina te navigeren, te zoeken, te wisselen van taal, artikeltabbladen en het gebruikersmenu te gebruiken, en meer. De verbeteringen zijn standaard al zichtbaar voor lezers en bewerkers op meer dan 30 wiki's, waaronder de Wikipedia's in het [[:fr:|Frans]], [[:pt:|Portugees]] en [[:fa:|Perzisch]].

De wijzigingen zijn alleen van toepassing op de skin [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}|useskin=vector}} Vector]. [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}|useskin=monobook}} Monobook] of [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}|useskin=timeless}} Timeless] worden niet beïnvloed.

; De nieuwste functies

Hi all,

Community members in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022|2022 Board of Trustees election]] are invited to [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022/Community_Voting/Election_Compass|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

Hi everyone,

'''The Affiliate voting process has concluded.''' Representatives from each Affiliate organization learned about the candidates by reading candidates’ statements, reviewing candidates’ answers to questions, and considering the candidates’ ratings provided by the Analysis Committee. The selected 2022 Board of Trustees candidates are:

* Tobechukwu Precious Friday ([[:m:User:Tochiprecious|Tochiprecious]])
* Farah Jack Mustaklem ([[:m:User:Fjmustak|Fjmustak]])
* Shani Evenstein Sigalov ([[:m:User:Esh77|Esh77]])
* Kunal Mehta ([[:m:User:Legoktm|Legoktm]])
* Michał Buczyński ([[:m:User:Aegis Maelstrom|Aegis Maelstrom]])
* Mike Peel ([[:m:User:Mike Peel|Mike Peel]])

You may see more information about the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Results|Results]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Stats|Statistics]] of this Board election.

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.''' [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022#Timeline|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:

* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Candidates|Read candidates’ statements]] and read the candidates’ answers to the questions posed by the Affiliate Representatives.
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022/Community_Voting/Questions_for_Candidates|Propose and select the 6 questions for candidates to answer during their video Q&amp;A]].
* See the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Candidates|Analysis Committee’s ratings of candidates on each candidate’s statement]].
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Community Voting/Election Compass|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

== [[waarvan]] ==

Woorde soos waarvan, waartydens, daartussen en hieruit word gewoonlik &quot;pronominal adverbs&quot; (en), &quot;voornaamwoordelijke bijwoorden&quot; (nl) ens. genoem, maar ek hou eintlik meer daarvan om hulle '''voornaamwoorde''' te noem, soos jy met [[waarvan]] gedoen het, Frank.

Hulle deel eienskappe van voornaamwoorde en van bywoorde, maar ongelukkig word bywoorde dikwels as 'n minder belangrike deel van de grammatika gesien. Hierdie woorde is egter ewe belangrik vir die Afrikaanse (en Nederlandse) grammatika as die voornaamwoorde self wat hulle vervang. Vanweë hulle naam word hulle dikwels as stiefkinders behandel. 'n Bywoord is mos net bysaak, nê? Selfs mense als Bilderdijk het hulle in die vroeë 1800s reeds kwaad daaroor gemaak.

Kan ons die term &quot;voornaamwoordelike bywoorde&quot; sommer omdraai en hulle &quot;bywoordelike voornaamwoorde&quot; noem? Dit druk ook hulle tweeslagtige natuur uit, maar doen meer reg aan hulle grammatikale rol. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 18:15, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

:Dit klink goed so, maar ek is ongelukkig nie 'n taalkundige nie (ek het rekenaarwetenskap studeer). Jy moet dus maar die leiding neem as dit by die tegniese aspekte kom. Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 19:06, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

:Vanuit 'n taalkundige perspektief word hierdie goed (internasionaal) &quot;voornaamwoordelike bywoorde&quot; genoem, aangesien hulle juis bywoorde is  wat voornaamwoordelik optree. Ons moet asb. nie die term verander nie - dit is goed gevestig! (Terloops ook: Ek dink darem nie bywoorde word meer in moderne grammatikas van die afgelope vyftig jaar as &quot;stiefkinders&quot; behandel nie :-) [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 05:29, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:::Met &quot;ons&quot; bedoel ek die Wiktionarygemeenskap. So gesien is dit eintlik tans primêr jy, [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] (as ek jou opmerkings in 'n ander onderwerp reg verstaan het)? Ek is inderdaad 'n nuweling hier op Wiktionary, want ek het nog nooit eintlik regtig verstaan wat hier aangaan nie. Maar ek wil niemand se turf bedreig of so nie ... As dit ongevraagd is, dan stoot ek liewer my energie elders in. Die laaste ding waarby ek betrokke wil raak, is die &quot;Wikipedia-politiek&quot; ...

::: Indien jy nog hier is, Geebee100, het jy dalk al agtergekom dat jy jou tyd met hierdie knopkop verspil. Sy houding en taalgebruik is 'n vooorbeeld van die ondergang van Afrikaans.

== New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
'''New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers'''

The Readers web team will be deploying a new feature this week to make it [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile PDFs|easier to download PDF versions of articles on the mobile website]].

Providing better offline functionality was one of the highlighted areas from [[m:New Readers/Offline|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 [[m:New Readers/Offline#Concept testing for mobile web|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. [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Print Styles#Mobile Printing|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 [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile PDFs|the project page on MediaWiki.org]].

== Kleure ==

Kleure is 'n bietjie 'n internasionale probleem. In die een taal word hulle as selfstandige naamwoorde beskou, in die ander as byvoeglike. Eintlik is hulle nes die telwoorde gespesialiseerde naamwoorde wat soms byvoeglik, soms selfstandig kan wees. Anders as telwoorde word hulle gewoonlik nie as 'n eie (sub)woordklas beskou. 'n Ander item vir die lys met probleme wat opgelos moet word. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 23:46, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
:Kleurname word tradisioneel in Afrikaans primêr as b.nw. gesien, sekondêr as s.nw. Woordeboeke soos die HAT en die WAT bied daarom ook die b.nw. eerste aan, gevolg deur die s.nw. M.i. kan ons gerus maar dieselfde patroon hier volg. [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 05:33, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

== Transliterasie-inskrywings ==
Wat maak ons met inskrywing soos [[Armeense transliterasie]], [[Oekraïense transliterasie]], [[Russiese transliterasie]] en [[Angel-Saksiese alfabet]]? Kan ons dit na die Wiktionary-naamruimte skuif? Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 06:58, 9 Desember 2017 (UTC)

== Woordsoortontleding ==
Kry mens programme wat woordsoortontleding in Afrikaans kan doen? Die Ingelse taalkundiges praat van 'n &quot;Part-of-speech tagger&quot;. So iets sal geweldig baie kan help. Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 18:03, 10 Desember 2017 (UTC)

::Hallo Frank. Ek dink die kodewoord is &quot;morphological analyser&quot; op Google. Ek kon wel twee programme opspoor in ander tale, maar ek weet nie hoe akkuraat hulle is nie. Legible Latin werk absoluut soos 'n droom, hoewel hy 'n woord soos &lt;s&gt;''vocitatus'' glad nie herken nie&lt;/s&gt; (tog wel!); gelukkig is daardie woord reeds by die Engelse Wiktionary opgeneem (wat dit weer by Franse woordeboeke gekry het?). Dan het ek vanoggend  afgekom op https://nlp.fi.muni.cz/czech-morphology-analyser/. Die programme kom nog uit 1995 aan. Die Duitse weergawe is by: http://morphy.wolfganglezius.de/download/. Onder Löwe (Leeu) spoeg hy die volgende uit:

: SUB ''Löwe'' NOM MAS SIN

::Onder ''Löwen'' (Leeu/Leeus) wel:

:SUB Löwe GEN MAS SIN
:SUB Löwe DAT MAS SIN
:SUB Löwe AKK MAS SIN
:SUB Löwe NOM MAS PLU
:SUB Löwe GEN MAS PLU
:SUB Löwe DAT MAS PLU
:SUB Löwe AKK MAS PLU

::Onder Panther (luiperd, panter) kry jy egter almal onder een dak:

:SUB Panther NOM MAS SIN
:SUB Panther DAT MAS SIN
:SUB Panther AKK MAS SIN
:SUB Panther NOM MAS PLU
:SUB Panther GEN MAS PLU
:SUB Panther AKK MAS PLU

Wat mis ons?
::Panthers
:SUB Panther GEN MAS SIN
::Panthern
:SUB Panther DAT MAS PLU

Dit klop 100% met die Duitse Wiktionary-inskrywing (https://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/Panther). Ek besef nou eers hoe onreëlmatig Duits kan raak... Ek dink egter nie Afrikaans het so iets ontwikkel nie. [[Gebruiker:Suidpunt|Suidpunt]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Suidpunt|kontak]]) 04:53, 13 Desember 2017 (UTC)

::: Dankie vir die interessantste inligting. Ek sal later verder oor die onderwerp nalees. Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 15:28, 20 Desember 2017 (UTC)

::In Afrikaans noem ons 'n &quot;part-of-speech tagger&quot; 'n &quot;woordsoortetiketteerder&quot;. Daar is al 'n klompie van hulle vir Afrikaans ontwikkel, waarvan die ene van die Noordwes-Universiteit meestal die basis vorm vir ander wat daarop wil verbeter. Kyk byvoorbeeld hierdie artikel: https://www.ajol.info/index.php/salas/article/view/6661. Die dokumentasie, data en kode van die jongste weergawe is hier beskikbaar: https://repo.sadilar.org/handle/20.500.12185/323. CTexT (aan die NWU) het ook 'n webmodule geskep wat 'n pyplyn skep vir die outomatiese annotering van tekste, waaronder woordsoortetikettering. Tot slot: In beginsel kan 'n mens nie daarop vertrou om woordsoortetiketteerders tussen tale te gebruik nie. Ons het uitvoerig navorsing hieroor gedoen, en dit word ten sterkste afgeraai om dit blindelings te gebruik.

== Frases en vaste begrippe ==

Hallo Leute.

Drie vrae, waarmee, dink ek, veral [[Gebruiker:Jcwf]] kan help.

VRAAG 1
Ek kom onlangs af op die volgende (gottwein.de):

:&quot;LATYN&quot;: Nostri consocii '''crustulis memorialibus''' utuntur. Concedis, si legere pergis.
:&quot;AFRIKAANS&quot;: Ons vennote gebruik '''koekies'''. Deur verder te lees, stem jy toe. [Letterlik: jy stem toe, deur verder te lees]

Mag mens hierdie &quot;begrip&quot; (letterlik: geheuebrokkies of geheuekoekies) net so as soekwoord/lemma/hofie gebruik? [Ek weet net nie of ons hier die ablatief, akkusatief of nominatief het nie - daarmee is ek maar dom].

::Dit is ablatief meervoud. 
VRAAG 2

Die 32 Bataljon het die slagspreuk/leuse gehad: PROELIO PROCUSI. Kan hierdie leuse (of, vaste bewoording) soos &quot;carpe diem&quot; ook soos by vraag 1 gebruik word, of hoe nou? Eintlik raak dit nou vrekmoeilik, want onder elke liewe vervoeging sal ons 'n voorbeeldsin moet aanhaal. Ons sal die carpe diem dus onder &quot;dies&quot; (nominatief, enkelvoud, onsydig) en carpo moet plaas? 

::Op nl.wikt het ons nooit regtig tot goeie afsprake daaoroor gekom nie, omdat daar nog derduisende ander goeter was wat ons aandag gevra het. Dis seker legitiem om ''carpe diem'' onder 'n Latynse lemma dies as uitdrukking op teneem. Ek dink Manie het 'n idioom-opskrif geskep om ook 'n bladsy ''carpe diem'' moontlik te maak, maar ek het my nooi so hiervoor geïnteresseer nie.

VRAAG 3

Hoe maak mens as Afrikaans/Nederlands één woord het wat in ander tale dikwels &quot;veelwoordig&quot; is, soos ''voetstoots''? In Duits sien ek skryf hulle oor dieselfde aangeleentheid ''gekauft wie gesehen''. In Trümpelmann staan daar weer ''unbesehen'', wat heeltemal onwaar is. Deur voetstoots te koop beteken dit om wel iets te koop, soos die HAT stel: ''met sigbare en onsigbare gebreke''. Die tweede deel is &quot;sommer so&quot;, &quot;sonder nadere ondersoek&quot;, maar hier het ons te make met beeldspraak: Ek kan nie hierdie aantyging voetstoots aanvaar nie.

::Dis een van die redes waarom ons verskeie wikti's het en die poging om een omega-wiki daarvan te skep met 'n relasionele database nie regtig geslaag is nie. Ja daar is woorde wat nie met een woord vertaal kan word. Vertaal is nie een-op-een nie. Die indeling van die inligtings sal dus op en.wikt, de.wikt ens. effens verskil. In die vertaalblokkie kan of gekies word vir 'n omskrywing wat dikwels nie geskakel word nie ofwel daar kom geen vertaling nie. Dis ook een van die redes waarom verskeie vertaalblokke, voorbeeldsinne en prentjies belangrik is om die betekenisdefinisie te onderbou. Soms is daar egter vaste verbindings soos &quot;byvoeglike naamwoord&quot; wat hulle eie bladsy verdien. Die Franse gee hieraan 'n eie opskrif soos ''locution nominale''. Ons kan oorweeg om hiervoor ook 'n opskriffie te bedink. Maar soos gesê: daar wag nog derduisende eenvoudiger goeters op 'n beskrywing.

:Wat mens nodig het:
::Jy moet 'n moedertaalspreker wees.
::'n Goeie mikrofoon, soos H4N (ingeboude mikrofoons is dikwels nie goed genoeg nie)
::'n Ruimte wat stil is. (geen agtergrondgeluid of geraas asseblief)
::Gratis geluid-sagteware soos Audacity op jou rekenaar
::Geduld en tyd.


#Maak 'n lys van die woorde wat jy gaan inspreek. (10-20 of so.)
#Spreek hulle duidelik maar natuurlik in. Vermy &quot;letter-uitspraak&quot;, praat soos jy normaal sou praat.
#Maak seker dat:
##jy die resultaat krities beluister (Die hele wiktionary-wêreld wil/gaan jou stem hoor!)
##die opname 'n goeie sterkte het, 
##dit duidelik en sonder vervorming is 
##jy nie in die mikrofoon geblaas het nie, met jou lippe gesmak ens. 
#Knip die opname in aparte lêers 
#stoor hulle as .ogg lêers. 
#Noem die lêer van die woord &quot;watterwoordook&quot;: '''af-''watterwoordook''.ogg''': met prefiks af- en die juiste spelling van die woord. (Klein letter tensy dit altyd 'n hoofletter kry)
#gaan na commons om hulle op te laai. (Ek glo jy kan 10 tegelyk doen)
#dit behoort as Category:Afrikaans pronunciation|watterwoordook gekategoriseer te word. (Anders kom alles onder &quot;af&quot;)

Hier op die Afrikaanse wikiwoordeboek word die klankopname so op die bladsy gesit:

{{Tl|-uitspraak-}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;nowiki&gt;:{{woordklank|ipa=|t=af|o=1}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;

Die klanklêer sal dalk nogtans ook dankbaar op ander wikiwoordeboeke gebruik word. Jy kan dit self doen, maar die sintaks is op ieder werf effens anders. Respekteer asseblief die plaaslike gebruike.

== Voorbeeldblad ==

As ons 'n woord het wat baie volledig uiteengesit is moet ons dit miskien as 'n voorbeeldblad aandui.

En as dit moontlik is om die voorbeeldblad sommer hier in die linkerbaan aan te dui vir maklike verwysing sal dit goed wees.

== Tydperke ==

Die geologiese tydperke is effens 'n probleem. Daar is gewoonlik 'n selfstandige naamwoord en 'n bybehorende byvoeglike. As ek die HAT goed begryp het die s.nw. Mesosoïkum 'n hoofletter, maar die b.nw. is mesosoïes met kleinletter. Die tydperk Jura kryg nogtans 'n b.nw. Jurassies in HAT, wat nogtans ook dikwels (anglisisties?) as s.nw. gebruik word. 

'n Ander probleem is dat daar dikwels verskillende benamings gebruik word, selfs in skoolmateriale. Ek sien byv. Kainosoïkum op wiki, maar Senosoïkum in HAT. Is dit net sinonime of is Kaino- nie Afrikaans nie? Wat is die b.nw. van Kryt? Van Karboon? (Indien dit bestaan?) Ek het Ordovikium gesien naas Ordovisium. Ensomeer.

Hello all,

(Sorry for writing in English. Feel free to translate this message below.)

One year ago, the Wikidata team started deploying new automatic interwiki links for Wiktionaries. Today, the links for the main namespace are automatically displayed by a Mediawiki extension, and the links for other namespaces are stored in Wikidata. You can find [[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:Wiktionary/Sitelinks|the documentation here]] (feel free to help translating it in your language).

We would like to know if you encountered problems with the system, if you would have suggestions for further improvements. This could be for example:
* Some automatic links don’t work as expected
* Some problems you encountered with entering links (for non-main namespace) in Wikidata
* Some new features you’d like to have, related to links

To give feedback, you have two options:
* Let a message on [[d:Wikidata talk:Lexicographical data/Sitelinks|this talk page]]
* Let a message here. If you do so, please mention me with the &lt;nowiki&gt;{{ping}}&lt;/nowiki&gt; template, so I can get a notification.
Our preferred languages are English, French and German, but you can also let a message in your own language if you feel more comfortable with it.

I’m looking forward for your feedback! [[:d:User:Lea Lacroix (WMDE)|Lea Lacroix (WMDE)]] 10:23, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
Hello,

''Sorry for writing in English. Feel free to translate the content of this message below.''

After several years discussing about it, and one year of development and discussion with the communities, the development team of Wikimedia Germany has now released the first version of [[d:Wikidata:Lexicographical data|lexicographical data support on Wikidata]].

Since the start of Wikidata in 2012, the multilingual knowledge base was mainly focused on concepts: Q-items are related to a thing or an idea, not to the word describing it. Starting now, Wikidata stores a new type of data: words, phrases and sentences, in many languages, described in many languages. This information will be stored in new types of entities, called Lexemes, Forms and Senses. 

The goal of lexicographical data on Wikidata is to provide a structured and machine-readable way to describe words and phrases in multiple languages, stored in a same place, reusable under CC-0. In the near future, this data will be available for Wiktionaries and other projects to reuse, as much as you want to.

For now, we’re at the first steps of this project: the new data structure has been released on Wikidata, and we’re looking for people to try it, and give us feedback on what is working or not. Participating to this project is the opportunity for you to have a voice in it, to make sure that your needs and requests are taken in account very early in the process, and to start populating Wikidata with words in your language!

Here’s how you can try lexicographical data on Wikidata:
* First of all, if you’re not familiar with the data model, I encourage you to have a look at [[d:Wikidata:Lexicographical data/Documentation|the documentation page]]. If you’re not familiar with Wikidata at all, I suggest [[d:Help:Contents|this page]] as a start point.
* You can also [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:AllPages?from=&amp;to=&amp;namespace=146 look at the Lexemes that already exists] (search features will be improved in the future).
* When you feel ready to create a word, go on [[d:Special:NewLexeme]].
* If some properties that you need are missing, you can [[d:Wikidata:Property proposal/Lexemes|suggest them on this page]] (if you’re not sure how to do it, just let a message on the talk page and someone will help you).
* The main discussion page is [[d:Wikidata:Lexicographical data]]. Here, you can ask for help, suggest ways to organize the data, but also leave feedback: if you encounter any bug or issue, let us know. We’re looking especially to know what are the most important features for you to be worked on next.

In any case, feel free to contact me if you have a question or problem, I’ll be very happy to help.

== Update on page issues on mobile web ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
'''Update on page issues on mobile web'''

{{int:please-translate}}
Hi everyone. The [[mw:Reading/Web/Team|Readers web team]] has recently begun working on exposing issue templates on the mobile website. Currently, details about issues with page content are generally hidden on the mobile website. This leaves readers unaware of the reliability of the pages they are reading. The goal of this project is to improve awareness of particular issues within an article on the mobile web. We will do this by changing the visual styling of page issues.

So far, we have [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues|drafted a proposal on the design and implementation]] of the project.  We were also able to run [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues/Research Results|user testing on the proposed designs]].  The tests so far have positive results. Here is a quick summary of what we learned:
* The new treatment increases awareness of page issues among participants. This is true particularly when they are in a more evaluative/critical mode.
* Page issues make sense to readers and they understand how they work
* Readers care about page issues and consider them important
* Readers had overwhelmingly positive sentiments towards Wikipedia associated with learning about page issues
Our next step would be to start implementing these changes. We wanted to reach out to you for any concerns, thoughts, and suggestions you might have before beginning development. Please [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues|visit the project page]] where we have more information and mockups of how this may look. Please [[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues|leave feedback on the talk page]].

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

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
''({{int:please-translate}})''

Hi all,

I'm preparing a change in who can edit sitewide CSS/JS pages. (These are pages like &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:Common.css&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:Vector.js&lt;/code&gt; 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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS|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 ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
''({{int:please-translate}})''

Hi all!

To improve the security of our readers and editors, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed. (These are pages like &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:Common.css&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:Vector.js&lt;/code&gt; which contain code that is executed in the browsers of users of the site.)
A new user group, &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Interface administrators|interface-admin]]&lt;/code&gt;, 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 &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;.css&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;.js&lt;/code&gt; that is either in the &lt;code dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;MediaWiki:&lt;/code&gt; namespace or is another user's user subpage).

You can learn more about the motivation behind the change [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS|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!

''Sorry for writing this message in English. Feel free to help translate it below.''

Hello all,

A few months ago, we asked you for feedback about [[d:Wikidata:Wiktionary/Sitelinks|Cognate]], the system allowing interwikilinks between Wiktionaries (on main namespace). Several community members gave some suggestions, one of them was to provide statistics about these interwikilinks.

The Wikidata team is pleased to present you the '''[https://wdcm.wmflabs.org/Wiktionary_CognateDashboard/ Wiktionary Cognate Dashboard]''', a website presenting a lot of interesting information about how Wiktionaries are connected to each others. You can find there, for example:
* the most interlinked Wiktionary entries not having a page on your Wiktionary
* the number of interlinks between each possible pair of Wiktionaries
* visualizations of the relationships between different Wiktionaries

To learn more about the tool, you can have a look at [[m:Wiktionary Cognate Dashboard|the documentation]] (please help us translating it in your language!). The interface of the tool itself can also be translated in other languages by [[m:Wiktionary Cognate Dashboard/Interface|using this page]].

If you find a bug, please let a comment on [[phab:T166487|this Phabricator task]] or ping me onwiki. Thanks a lot, [[:d:User:Lea Lacroix (WMDE)|Lea Lacroix (WMDE)]] 13:08, 14 Augustus 2018 (UTC)

Hi all,

as [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS/announcement 2|announced previously]], permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed: only members of the &lt;code&gt;[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Interface administrators|interface-admin]]&lt;/code&gt; ({{int:group-interface-admin}}) 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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS|Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS]]. If you encounter any unexpected problems, please contact me or file a bug.

The [[foundation:|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 [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|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 [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20170503T14 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 [[wikitech:Switch Datacenter#Schedule for 2018 switch|read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org]]. Any changes will be announced in the schedule.  There will be more notifications about this.

== The GFDL license on Commons ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks&quot;&gt;

This has been posted here because your wiki allows local file uploads. {{int:please-translate}}.

Commons [[c:Commons:Village pump/Proposals/Archive/2018/08#No longer allow GFDL for some new uploads|will no longer allow]] uploads of photos, paintings, drawings, audio and video that use the GFDL [[c:Commons:Licensing|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. — [[User:Alexis Jazz|Alexis Jazz]], &lt;small&gt;distributed by [[User:Johan (WMF)|Johan]] using [[m:Special:MyLanguage/MassMessage|MassMessage]]&lt;/small&gt;

{{int:please-translate}}
[[File:Page_issues_-_mobile_banner_example.jpg|thumb|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 [[wikidata:Q5962027|Template:Unreferenced]] or [[Wikidata:Q5619503|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 &quot;Learn more&quot; link to get more information.

For template editors we have [[mw:Recommendations_for_mobile_friendly_articles_on_Wikimedia_wikis#Making_page_issues_(ambox_templates)_mobile_friendly|some recommendations on how to make templates that are mobile-friendly]] and also further [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile_Page_Issues|documentation on our work so far]].

If you have questions about formatting templates for mobile, [[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile_Page_Issues|please leave a note on the project talk page]] or [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/1/?projects=Readers-Web-Backlog file a task in Phabricator] and we will help you.

The [[:m:Tremendous Wiktionary User Group|Tremendous Wiktionary User Group]] could send one representative to the [[:m:Wikimedia Summit 2019|Wikimedia Summit 2019]] (formerly &quot;Wikimedia Conference&quot;). The Wikimedia Summit is an yearly conference of all organizations affiliated to the Wikimedia Movement (including our Tremendous Wiktionary User Group). It is a great place to talk about Wiktionary needs to the chapters and other user groups that compose the Wikimedia movement. 

For context, there is a [[:m:Wikimedia Conference 2018/Further reports/Tremendous Wiktionary User Group|short report on what happened last year]]. The deadline is very close to 24 hrs. The last date for registration is 17 December 2018. As a last minute effort, there is a '''[[:m:Tremendous Wiktionary User Group/Wikimedia Summit 2019|page on meta to decide who will be the representative of the user group to the Wikimedia Summit]]''' created.

Please feel free to ask any question on the [https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wiktionary-l wiktionary-l] mailing list or on the [[:m:Talk:Wiktionary/Tremendous Wiktionary User Group|talk page]]. 

For the [[:m:Tremendous Wiktionary User Group|Tremendous Wiktionary User Group]],

== FileExporter beta feature ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt; 
[[File:Logo for the beta feature FileExporter.svg|thumb|Coming soon: the beta feature [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|FileExporter]]]]
A new beta feature will soon be released on all wikis: The [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|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 [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons/Configuration file documentation|configuration file]]''' if you want to use this feature.

The FileExporter has already been a beta feature on [https://www.mediawiki.org mediawiki.org], [https://meta.wikimedia.org meta.wikimedia], deWP, faWP, arWP, koWP and on [https://wikisource.org 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 [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|on the project page]]. 

As always, feedback is highly appreciated. If you want to test the FileExporter, please activate it in your [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|user preferences]]. The best place for feedback is the [[mw:Help_talk:Extension:FileImporter|central talk page]]. Thank you from Wikimedia Deutschland's [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes|Technical Wishes project]].

The Wikimedia Foundation is planning a [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019|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:  
# First, [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019/Participant group sign-up|sign up your group here.]]  
# 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.  
# 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:
## When you want to discuss a topic with your community, what tools work for you, and what problems block you?
## What about talk pages works for newcomers, and what blocks them?
## What do others struggle with in your community about talk pages?
## What do you wish you could do on talk pages, but can't due to the technical limitations?
## What are the important aspects of a &quot;wiki discussion&quot;?
# Finally, please go to [[mw:Talk:Talk pages consultation 2019|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 [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019/Tools in use|how your group communicates]].

You can read more about [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019|the overall process]] on mediawiki.org. If you have questions or ideas, you can [[mw:Talk:Talk pages consultation 2019|leave feedback about the consultation process]] in the language you prefer.

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

== Uitspraakriglyne ==

Is daar iewers riglyne wat geld vir die IPA-weergawe van uitspraak op die Afrikaanse Wiktionary? Ek sou graag wou weet – slegs as voorbeeld – waarom &quot;mooi&quot; getranskribeer word as [moːɪ̯]? In al my jare wat ek in die Afrikaanse taalkunde werk, het ek dit nog nie teëgekom dat ons 'n [ɪ] in Afrikaans kry nie; ook nie dat ons nonsillabiese annotasie soos [ɪ̯] gebruik nie. Dit is meer gebruiklik om dit te transkribeer as [moi], of in my dialek as [mɔi]. Dit is selfs deesdae gebruiklik om nie lengte [ː] aan te dui nie, behalwe in gevalle waar rekking ter sprake is. 
'n Ander geval is byvoorbeeld die aanduiding van sillabegrense, wat lyk asof dit nie konsekwent gedoen word nie. Ek sou byvoorbeeld &quot;die mooiste&quot; transkribeer as [di ˈmoi.stə], waar [ˈ] primêre klem aandui en [.] 'n sillabegrens.
Ek wil nou nie dwars wees en goed gaan verander as daar iewers 'n verantwoorde riglyn hieroor bestaan nie. Met die samestelling van die IFA-tabel in die nuutste Afrikaanse woordelys en spelreëls (2017) het ons baie moeite gedoen om dit ooreenkomstig nuutste insigte en praktyke te probeer standaardiseer. Maar dit is natuurlik nie die alfa en die omega nie; ek luister graag as daar hier ander riglyne geld. [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 06:04, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek weet niks van Afrikaanse transkribering nie. Jy kan seker reg het dat [ɪ]  ontereg is vir Afrikaans. Vir my Nederlandse ore lyk dit of dieselfde geld vir [o].  Ek hoor net [ɔ] of 'n tweeklank [ʊə] of so. Ek dink egter dat vir tweeklanke 'n nie-sillabiese annotasie verdedigbaar is. Mooi word mos nie as  tweelettergrepig moo-ïe uitgespreek nie. Jy sou selfs aan [mɔj] kan dink. 

:Ek stem saam dat : rekking behoort aan te dui. In Nederlands het ek daarvoor baie stryd moet lewer. 

:Maar IFA is altyd net 'n ''benadering'' en jy kan baie baklei hoe om dit te doen. Dis hoekom ek probeer om Oesjaar se kletslêers in te voer. Manie het die meeste IFA ingevoer en hy het lank geleë verdwyn.

:Maar as jy 'n konsistente manier het om IFA in te voer sou ek dit graag sien. Maar wel dat JY die werk doen. Ons het geen behoefte aan mense wat werkopdragte kom gee nie.
::Dankie vir die antwoord. Ek is DEFINITIEF nie hier om opdragte te gee nie; wil graag help waar ek kan. Daarom dat ek ook eers vra, voor ek sommer net lostrek en na eie goeddunke optree. 
::Ek het ook 'n PhD-student wat tans werk aan 'n uitspraakwoordeboek vir Afrikaans; dit sou gaaf wees as 'n mens die data hier en haar data met mekaar kon belyn (in beide rigtings). Ons sou egter wel 'n hele klomp goed sistematies kon/wou doen - selfs met 'n transkripsieprotokol wat as vertrekpunt dien en wat 'n mens dan hier beskikbaar kan stel vir toekomstige gebruikers.
::Ek dink ook ons sal probeer om dit sistematies te doen deur gebruik te maak van die &quot;Python Wikipedia Robot Framework&quot;. Ons is nog eers besig om die kode te verken, ook met die ondersteuning van [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]]
::Tot slot, oor die nie-sillabiese annotasie: Anna Coetzee het, na my wete, in haar werk altyd breking met 'n halfvokaal aangedui, dus bv. iets soos [mɔʲi]. Soos jy sê, 'n mens sou seker vir ure hieroor kon argumenteer; dalk kom 'n mens dan nie eers by 'n antwoord uit nie ... Die AWS se houding was dus 'n bietjie pragmaties: Transkribeer sonder die fynste fonetiese wisseling wat moontlik is, maar verskaf 'n transkripsie wat so algemeen as moontlik geld.
::Dankie vir al jou antwoorde. Gewaardeerd! [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 14:37, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

== Arabiese transliterasie ==

Wat is die bron vir die Arabiese transliterasies wat gebruik word in die Afrikaanse Wiktionary? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 06:07, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek het geen idee. Manie het dit ingevoer en hy is lank weg. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 10:54, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::As die geldigheid (en bron) hiervan nie geverifieer kan word nie, sal dit nie beter wees om dit liewer sistematies te verwyder nie? Dis tog eintlik mos 'n beginsel van Wikimedia dat inligting ten minste geverifieerd aangebied moet word? Hoor graag wat jou gevoel hieroor is. [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 14:39, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:::Nee [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 15:46, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::::Miskien moet jy hierdie bladsy gaan lees: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability. Dit sal jou dalk help om my vraag beter te verstaan? Of geld dit dus nie Wiktionary nie? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 05:25, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek glo die Arabiese transliterasies kan redelik maklik bevestig word. Dit is net Afrikaans met 'n ander alfabet. Dit behoort standaardreëls te hê, maar ek is nie so talentvol nie. [[Gebruiker:PixelVulpix|PixelVulpix]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:PixelVulpix|kontak]])
::Dankie, [[Gebruiker:PixelVulpix|PixelVulpix]]. Die enigste transliterasiereëls waarvan ek bewus is, is dié wat Achmat Davids in sy verhandeling ''The Afrikaans of the Cape Muslims from 1815 to 1915'' (onlangs gepubliseer as ''Die Afrikaans van die Kaapse Moslems'') bespreek het. As dit die basis is van die inligting hier op Wiktionary, en as dit noukeurig ingevoer is, dan het ek vertroue daarin. Maar dit pla my dat 'n mens nie die betroubaarheid daarvan kan verifieer nie. Ken jy dalk vir Manie waarna vroeër verwys is? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 05:25, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::: Die Arabies was nog altyd verdag en ek het al talle kere onsuksesvol met Manie probeer kontak maak. Interessant genoeg kan mens die Arabiese teks kopieer en met Google Translate vertaal, wat jou soms (so amper) by die oorspronklike woord terugbring. As voorbeeld: &quot;Mooi&quot; -&gt; &quot;مَُويْ&quot; -&gt; &quot;Moi&quot;. Ander werk weer glad nie: &quot;baie&quot; -&gt; &quot;بَیِی&quot; -&gt; &quot;PII&quot;.  Groete. [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 05:48, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::::Ah, dankie, [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]]. Dis 'n slim verifikasiemetode waaraan ek nie gedink het nie. Gegewe die tekortkominge van Google Translate kan 'n mens natuurlik nie volkome daarop vertrou nie, maar by 'n gebrek aan ander metodes, gee dit al 'n eerste aanduiding. 
::::Ek probeer ook in my netwerke bepaal of Afrikaans enigsins nog produktief in Arabiese skrif voorgestel word. Tot dusver kon niemand nog bevestig dat dit wel só gebruik word nie. Dit blyk op hierdie stadium of dit slegs die oudste geskrifte in Afrikaans is wat in Arabiese skrif geskryf is, maar nie meer hede den dage nie. 'n Mens sou dan natuurlik kon wonder of dit dan nodig is hier? Ek sal in ieder geval laat weet as iemand met nuwe inligting vorendag kom. [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 08:29, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek het oral rondgevra en geskryf en dit blyk dat die Arabiese skrifvorm van die 1800's (soos wyd bekend is) tot die 1950's in Moesliem- religieuse tekste gebruik is. 'n Mens moet dus wonder waarom woorde soos dievolgende in Arabiese skrif aangebied word: 
::*[[anode]]; 
::*die taalkundige term [[volmaak verlede tyd]] (wat in ieder geval hoogs ongebruiklik is);
::*die taalnaam [[Boekmaal]] (waarvan ek hierdie spelling ook nie in ander woordeboeke kry nie);
::*[[oorbelastingseenheid]] (motoronderdeel);
::*[[lugvaartmaatskappy]].
:Dat 'n woord soos [[wafaat]] of [[berg]] of [[hen]] in Arabiese skrif voorgestel word, sou natuurlik sin kon maak teen die religieuse agtergrond wat ek hier bo noem. In sulke gevalle sou 'n mens natuurlik sonder meer die Arabieseskrifinligting wou behou.
:My voorstel is dus dat 'n mens alles met Arabiese skrif onttrek, evalueer en dan besluit wat behou moet word en wat nie.

Wat is die bron vir die inligting onder &quot;Spelling tot 1909&quot;? En wat is die noodsaak hiervan? En waarom spesifiek 1909?
Ek sien byvoorbeeld onder &quot;mooi&quot; die volgende vorme: mooi-ër, mójer, mó-jer. Waarom is daar koppeltekens in mooi-ër en mó-jer? Is dit inderdaad so gespel? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 06:11, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Dit is ook Manie se erfenis. [[Gebruiker:Jcwf|Jcwf]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Jcwf|kontak]]) 10:54, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

::Insgelyks, as die korrektheid en geldigheid hiervan nie kontroleerbaar is nie, moet ons dit nie liewer verwyder nie? Ek sou veel eerder wou sien dat 'n mens van die vroeë Afrikaanse woordelyste as basis gebruik om van die inligting outomaties te kontroleer; waar dit wel geverifieer kan word, die data te behou; en dan die bronverwysing by te voeg. Jou gevoel? [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 14:45, 28 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:::: Die spelling voor 1909 kom moontlik uit S.J. du Toit se &quot;Patriot woordeboek&quot;, maar ek het nie nou tyd om te bevestig nie.

[[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Naudefj|kontak]]) 06:07, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:::::Dankie, [[Gebruiker:Naudefj|Naudefj]]. Ek onderneem om 'n paar sistematiese steekproewe te doen om te sien of die &quot;Patriot woordeboek&quot; inderdaad die bron hiervoor is. Ek neem aan ek kan al die woorde wat só gemerk is op Wiktionary sal kan onttrek; ek beskou dit as deel van my leerkurwe op Wiktionary :-) [[Gebruiker:Geebee100|Geebee100]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:Geebee100|kontak]]) 08:34, 29 Julie 2019 (UTC)

:Ek kon nog nie 'n manier kry om alle woorde met &quot;Spelling voor 1909&quot; te onttrek nie en het daarom gebruikgemaak van &quot;Lukrake Afr. woord&quot; (in die linkerkantse menu) om 'n dertigtal gevalle te ondersoek. As vergelykende bronne het ek Du Toit &amp; Kie se ''Patriot-woordeboek'' (1902; 1968-uitgawe) en Van der Merwe se ''Vroeë Afrikaanse woordelyste'' (1971) gebruik. Ek moet helaas rapporteer dat ek slegs 'n enkele geval in enige van hierdie bronne kon opspoor, te wete &quot;form&quot; onder [[vorm]] ... Enkele voorbeelde van woorde wat ek ondersoek het:
::[[Afrikaner]], [[mooi]] (se ander woordvorme), [[aanwysende voornaamwoord]] (gesoek as afsonderlike woorde), [[voltooid verlede tyd]] (gesoek as afsonderlike woorde), [[Februarie]], en so meer.
:Ek is dus helaas steeds nie oortuig van die korrektheid van die inligting wat hier op Wiktionary verskaf word nie. Ek sou dus twee voorstelle wou maak:
::#Dat 'n mens alle bestaande inligting onder &quot;Spelling voor 1909&quot; onttrek en sistematies kontroleer; en
::#Dat 'n mens probeer om die woordelyste in bogenoemde bronne te onttrek en in te voeg by bestaande en nuwe inskrywings hier op Wiktionary (en dan sulke bladsy te voorsien van 'n verwysing met behulp van die templaat.

== Wysigings aan sjablone? ==

M.b.t. tot die sjablone:
# Waarom word die begrip &quot;teengesteldes&quot; in '''!-- Teengesteldes --''' gebruik? Bedoel dit eintlik &quot;teenoorgesteldes&quot;, oftewel &quot;antonieme&quot;? As die term &quot;sinonieme&quot; in '''!-- Sinonieme --''' gebruik word, sou ek graag wou voorstel dat 'n mens '''!-- Antonieme --''' en {{-anto-}} gebruik. 
# Ek sou ook graag wou sien dat '''!-- Antonieme --''' direk op '''!-- Sinonieme --''' volg, aangesien hulle konseptueel verbandhoudend is (d.i. op semantiese verhoudings dui).
# Ek besef dit is onnodig punteneurig, maar kan {{-afgelyd.w-}} en {{-aflyd-}} nie maar onderskeidelik {{-afgeleid.w-}} en {{-afleid-}} word nie?
# Ook punteneurig, maar kan {{-telwd-}} nie maar {{-telw-}} word nie? Dit volg dan nie net die patroon van die ander gevalle nie (bv. {{-voegw-}}, ens.), maar ook die amptelike afkorting vir dié woordsoort. Insgelyks sou 'n mens kon oorweeg om {{-werkw-}} te vervang met die goed gevestigde afkorting &quot;ww.&quot; – dus iets soos {{-ww-}}. 
# Konseptueel hoort '''!-- Afleiding --''' vir my nie waar hy tans staan nie, maar eerder nader aan '''!-- Woordsoort --''', en eintlik liefs naby iets soos '''!-- Etimologie --'''.
# Sou '''!-- Etimologie --''' in alle sjablone bygevoeg kon word?
# Onder '''!-- Afleiding --''' kan die gedeelte ''':Van ... afgelei.''' eerder wees: '''Afgelei van [[...]]'''. Sowieso moet die ellipsstippels m.i. tussen dubbele blokhakies wees.

== Update on the consultation about office actions ==

Hello all, 

Last month, the Wikimedia Foundation's Trust &amp; Safety team [[:en:Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)/Archive_152#Announcement_of_forthcoming_temporary_and_partial_ban_tool_consultation|announced]] a future consultation about partial and/or temporary [[m:Special:MyLanguage/office actions|office actions]]. We want to let you know that the '''draft version''' of this consultation has now been [[:m:Office_actions/Community_consultation_on_partial_and_temporary_office_actions/draft|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. '''[[:m:Talk:Office_actions/Community_consultation_on_partial_and_temporary_office_actions/draft|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 [[:m:Office_actions/Community_consultation_on_partial_and_temporary_office_actions/draft|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety|Trust &amp; Safety team]] 08:02, 16 Augustus 2019 (UTC)

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 [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|on Meta]] and [[m:Talk:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|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.

Hello, 

In a [[:en:Wikipedia:Community_response_to_the_Wikimedia_Foundation%27s_ban_of_Fram/Official_statements#Board_statement|recent statement]], the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees [[:en:Wikipedia:Community_response_to_the_Wikimedia_Foundation%27s_ban_of_Fram/Official_statements#Board_statement|requested that staff hold a consultation]] to &quot;re-evaluat[e] or add community input to the two new office action policy tools (temporary and partial Foundation bans)&quot;.

Accordingly, the Foundation's Trust &amp; Safety team invites all Wikimedians [[:m:Office actions/Community consultation on partial and temporary office actions/09 2019|to join this consultation and give their feedback]] from 30 September to 30 October. 

How can you help?

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

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

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

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

== Feedback wanted on Desktop Improvements project ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
{{Int:Please-translate}}

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

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

We would like individual feedback on the following:

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

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

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

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

As well as the following constraints:

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

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

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

== Additional interface for edit conflicts on talk pages ==

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

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

== Feedback on movement names ==

{{int:Hello}}. Apologies if you are not reading this message in your native language. {{int:please-translate}} if necessary. {{Int:Feedback-thanks-title}}

There are a lot of conversations happening about the future of our movement names. We hope that you are part of these discussions and that your community is represented.

Since 16 June, the Foundation Brand Team has been running a [https://wikimedia.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9G2dN7P0T7gPqpD survey] in 7 languages about [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Communications/Wikimedia brands/2030 movement brand project/Naming convention proposals|3 naming options]]. There are also community members sharing concerns about renaming in a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community open letter on renaming|Community Open Letter]]. 

Our goal in this call for feedback is to hear from across the community, so we encourage you to participate in the survey, the open letter, or both. The survey will go through 7 July in all timezones. Input from the survey and discussions will be analyzed and published on Meta-Wiki.

Thanks for thinking about the future of the movement, --[[:m:Talk:Communications/Wikimedia brands/2030 movement brand project|The Brand Project team]], 19:39, 2 Julie 2020 (UTC)

== Announcing a new wiki project! Welcome, Abstract Wikipedia ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;

Hi all,

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

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

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

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

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

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

There is much to do as we begin designing a plan for Abstract Wikipedia in close collaboration with our communities. I encourage you to get involved by going to the project page and joining the new mailing list &lt;ref&gt;[[mail:abstract-wikipedia|Abstract Wikipedia mailing list]]&lt;/ref&gt;. We recognize that Abstract Wikipedia is ambitious, but we also recognize its potential. We invite you all to join us on a new, unexplored path.

Yours,

Katherine Maher (Executive Director, Wikimedia Foundation)

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

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
The [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|FileExporter and FileImporter]] will become a default features on all wikis until August 7, 2020. They are planned to help you to move files from your local wiki to Wikimedia Commons easier while keeping all original file information (Description, Source, Date, Author, View History) intact. Additionally, the move is documented in the files view history. 
How does it work? 

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

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

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

If you want to know more about the [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons|FileImporter extension]] or the [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes|Technical Wishes Project]], follow the links. --For the Technical Wishes Team: &lt;/div&gt;[[User:Max Klemm (WMDE)|Max Klemm (WMDE)]] 09:13, 6 Augustus 2020 (UTC)

Die [[foundation:|Wikimedia Foundation]] toets sy sekondêre datasentrum.  Dit sal verseker dat Wikipedia en die ander Wikimedia wiki's aanlyn kan bly, selfs ná 'n ramp. Om seker te maak dat alles werk, moet die afdeling Wikimedia Technology 'n beplande toets aflê. Hierdie toets sal wys of hulle betroubaar van die een datasentrum na die ander kan oorskakel. Dit verg baie spanne om voor te berei vir die toets en beskikbaar te wees om enige onverwagte probleme op te los. 

Hulle sal alle verkeer na die sekondêre datacenter op '''Dinsdag, September 1 2020''' oorskakel.

Ongelukkig, as gevolg van 'n paar beperkings in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki? | MediaWiki]], alle redigering moet stop terwyl ons oorskakel.  Ons vra om verskoning vir hierdie ontwrigting en werk daarna om dit in die toekoms tot die minimum te beperk. 

'''U sal alle wiki's vir 'n kort tydjie kan lees, maar nie kan redigeer nie.'''

*U kan Dinsdag 1 September nie tot 'n uur lank wysig nie. Die toets begin om [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20200901T14 14:00 UTC] (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, en in Nieu-Seeland om 02:00 NZST op Woensdag 2 September).
*As u gedurende hierdie tye probeer redigeer of stoor, sal u 'n foutboodskap sien.  Ons hoop dat geen wysigings verlore sal gaan gedurende hierdie minute nie, maar ons kan dit nie waarborg nie.  As u die foutboodskap sien, wag dan totdat alles weer normaal is.  Dan moet u u redigering kan stoor.  Maar ons beveel aan dat u eers 'n afskrif van u wysigings maak, net vir ingeval.

''Ander effekte'':

*Agtergrondgeleenthede sal stadiger wees en sommige sal moontlik afgeneem word. Rooi skakels word moontlik nie so vinnig soos gewoonlik opgedateer nie. As u 'n artikel skep wat reeds elders gekoppel is, sal die skakel langer as gewoonlik rooi bly. Sommige skrifte met 'n lang hardloop moet gestop word.
*Daar sal kode gevries word vir die week van 1 September 2020.  Nie-noodsaaklike kode-ontplooiings sal nie plaasvind nie.

Hierdie projek kan indien nodig uitgestel word.  Jy kan [[wikitech:Switch Datacenter#Schedule for 2018 switch|die skedule lees by wikitech.wikimedia.org]]. Enige veranderinge sal in die skedule aangekondig word.  Daar sal meer kennisgewings hieroor wees.  '''Deel asseblief hierdie inligting met u gemeenskap.'''

== Wiktionary sitelinks dashboard: URL update ==

Hello all, and sorry for writing in English. Feel free to translate this message below.

The [[m:Wiktionary Cognate Dashboard|Wiktionary Cognate Dashboard]] presents interesting data about the extension powering your sitelinks. I just wanted to let you know that the URL of this tool changed: it is now accessible at https://wiktionary-analytics.wmcloud.org/Wiktionary_CognateDashboard/ . The former URLs, https://wmdeanalytics.wmflabs.org/Wiktionary_CognateDashboard/ and https://wdcm.wmflabs.org/Wiktionary_CognateDashboard/ , will be disabled on September 25th. Don't forget to update your documentation pages accordingly.

If you have questions about the tool or the URL switch, feel free to ping me. Cheers, [[:m:User:Lea Lacroix (WMDE)|Lea Lacroix (WMDE)]] 11:46, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

{{int:Hello}}. Please help pick a name for the new Wikimedia wiki project. This project will be a wiki where the community can work together on a library of [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Abstract_Wikipedia/Wiki_of_functions_naming_contest#function|functions]]. The community can create new functions, read about them, discuss them, and share them. Some of these functions will be used to help create language-independent Wikipedia articles that can be displayed in any language, as part of the Abstract Wikipedia project. But functions will also be usable in many other situations.

There will be two rounds of voting, each followed by legal review of candidates, with voting beginning on 29 September and 27 October. Our goal is to have a final project name selected on 8 December. If you would like to participate, then '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Abstract Wikipedia/Wiki of functions naming contest|please learn more and vote now]]''' at meta-wiki. {{Int:Feedback-thanks-title}} --[[m:User:Quiddity (WMF)|Quiddity (WMF)]]&lt;/div&gt; 21:16, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

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

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

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|MediaWiki]], all editing must stop while the switch is made.  We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future. 

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

*You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Tuesday, October 27. The test will start at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1603807200 14:00 UTC] (14:00 WET, 15:00 CET, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 03:00 NZDT on Wednesday October 28).
*If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message.  We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it.  If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal.  Then you should be able to save your edit.  But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

''Other effects'':

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

This project may be postponed if necessary.  You can [[wikitech:Switch_Datacenter#Schedule_for_2020_switch|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.

== Global bot policy proposal: invitation to a Meta discussion ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
{{int:hello}}!

I apologize for sending a message in English. {{int:please-translate}}. According to [[:m:Bot_policy/Implementation#Where_it_is_policy|the list]], your wiki project currently is opted in to the [[:m:Bot_policy#Global_bots|global bot policy]]. Under this policy, bots that fix double redirects or maintain interwiki links are allowed to operate under a global bot flag that is assigned directly by the stewards.

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

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

By this message, I would like to invite you to comment [[:m:Requests for comment/Refine global bot policy|in the global RFC]], to voice your opinion about this matter.

Thank you for your time.

Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;

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

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
''Sorry for sending this message in English. Translations are available on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Announcements/Announcement Wikidata descriptions in watchlist|this page]]. Feel free to translate it in more languages!''

As you may know, you can include changes coming from Wikidata in your Watchlist and Recent Changes ([[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-watchlist|in your preferences]]). Until now, this feature didn’t always include changes made on Wikidata descriptions due to the way Wikidata tracks the data used in a given article.

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

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

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

If you encounter any issue or want to provide feedback, feel free to use [[Phab:T191831|this Phabricator ticket]]. Thanks!

== Universal Code of Conduct enforcement consultations ==

Dear all,

you may know me under my Wikimedia username – [[w:User:Nadzik|Nadzik]]. I came here last year to contribute to your project as well as I can. I am sorry for writing to you in English, but this will make the message more understandable, than using an automatic translator. Feel free to translate my post!

Over the next few weeks, [[w:Wikimedia Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]] will be consulting on the implementation and the enforcement of the [[:meta:Universal Code of Conduct/Draft review/en|Universal Code of Conduct]], which will constitute an appendix to the currently applicable [https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Terms_of_Use/en Terms of Use].

=== What is the Universal Code of Conduct? ===
The UCoC is intended to serve as a document that will incorporate the basic standards of behaviour in order to standardize them across all Wikimedia projects. It aims to include a list of inappropriate behaviours that will not be accepted in our projects, and also takes care of the safety of all users.

It is also intended to provide a common ground in those communities that do not have their own specific regulations and rules on this subject. It will widely help smaller and younger projects that have not yet had the opportunity to write down their own rules related to the inappropriate behaviour of their contributors.

[[:m:Universal Code of Conduct/Initial 2020 Consultations|Consultations carried out in 2019 and in the first half of 2020]] allowed for the preparation of a preliminary proposal of rules, however, there are still no provisions related to the implementation of the UCoC. To this end consultations started in many Wikimedia project communities.

=== How will the consultations work? ===
In January and February 2021, nine language facilitators from the Wikimedia Foundation will engage in a series of consultations with different language communities (including Wikidata and Commons user communities). I've also asked to be allowed consulting with the Afrikaans community, as I've had the pleasure to work with some of you before. In the coming weeks, we will have the opportunity to talk together about your views, visions and ideas for implementation in connection with the introduction of UCoC .

The goal of the Wikimedia Foundation is to obtain information from various communities, and only on the basis of the currently conducted consultations, our team will prepare and present reports and various possibilities of implementing UCoC into force. I encourage everyone to share their opinion with me and with other members of our community. Starting in February, some of you may also be contacted by a dedicated affiliate outreach or user group outreach.

=== How to participate? ===
Feel free to express your opinion in the most convenient way for you. To enable everyone willing to participate in consultations, they will be conducted in several ways:
# Village pump discussion at [[w:Wikipedia:Geselshoekie#Universal Code of Conduct enforcement consultations|af.wikipedia]]
# Opening a new thread on my [[w:User talk:MNadzikiewicz (WMF)|User talk page]]
# Emailing me [[Spesiaal:Stuur_e-pos/MNadzikiewicz_(WMF)|directly via Wikimail]]

Additionally, in the coming days, an anonymous poll will be launched for community members who would like to privately convey their feelings about the UCoC, as well as the spheres surrounding it (the state of the rules in our projects, unwanted situations and other developments you are willing to discuss).

I also invite you to visit [[:meta:Universal Code of Conduct/FAQ|FAQ-page]], that already has answers to most frequently asked questions. If you have any questions, ping me, to make sure that I see your message!

I wish us all a fruitful debate! [[Gebruiker:MNadzikiewicz (WMF)|MNadzikiewicz (WMF)]] ([[Gebruikerbespreking:MNadzikiewicz (WMF)|kontak]]) 09:50, 20 Januarie 2021 (UTC)

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

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
{{int:please-translate}}

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 &lt;code&gt;WP:NPOV&lt;/code&gt;, 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, {{SITENAME}} 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 [[:m:User talk:Martin Urbanec|ask me]] if you have any questions about this proposal.

Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;

=== Universal Code of Conduct Phase 2 ===

{{int:please-translate}}

The [[:wmf:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct|'''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 [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct|'''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 [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee|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 [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations/Discussion|key questions]]. If you are interested in volunteering for either of these roles, please [[:m:Talk:Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations|contact us]] in whatever language you are most comfortable.

To learn more about this work and other conversations taking place, see [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations|Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations]].

== Global bot policy changes ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
{{int:hello}}!

I apologize for sending a message in English. {{int:please-translate}}. According to [[:m:Bot_policy/Implementation#Where_it_is_policy|the list]], your wiki project is currently opted in to the [[:m:Bot_policy#Global_bots|global bot policy]]. As such, I want to let you know about some changes that were made after the [[:m:Requests for comment/Refine global bot policy|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 [[:m:Bot policy/New global bot discussion|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,&lt;br /&gt;

== Line numbering coming soon to all wikis ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;  

[[File:Technical_Wishes_–_Line_numbering_-_2010_wikitext_editor.png|thumb|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 ([[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror extension]]), which is supported in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:WikiEditor|2010]] and [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2017 wikitext editor|2017]] wikitext editors. 

More information can be found on [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Line Numbering|this project page]]. Everyone is invited to test the feature, and to give feedback [[m:talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Line Numbering|on this talk page]].

== Suggested Values ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;  

From April 29, it will be possible to suggest values for parameters in templates. Suggested values can be added to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:TemplateData|TemplateData]] and will then be shown as a drop-down list in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide|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: [[mw:Help:TemplateData#suggestedvalues|[1]]] [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Suggested_values_for_template_parameters|[2]]]. Everyone is invited to test the feature, and to give feedback [[m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Suggested values for template parameters|on this talk page]].

Dear all,

Wikimania 2021 will be [[:wikimania:2021:Save the date and the Core Organizing Team|hosted virtually]] for the first time in the event's 15-year history. Since there is no in-person host, the event is being organized by a diverse group of Wikimedia volunteers that form the [[:wikimania:2021:Organizers|Core Organizing Team]] (COT) for Wikimania 2021.

'''Event Program''' - Individuals or a group of individuals can submit their session proposals to be a part of the program. There will be translation support for sessions provided in a number of languages. See more information [[:wikimania:2021:Submissions/Guidelines#Language Accessibility|here]].

Below are some links to guide you through;
* [[:wikimania:2021:Submissions|Program Submissions]]

* [[:wikimania:2021:FAQ|FAQ]]

Please note that the deadline for submission is 18th June 2021. 

'''Announcements'''- To keep up to date with the developments around Wikimania, the COT sends out weekly updates. You can view them in the Announcement section [[:wikimania:2021:Announcements|here]]. 

'''Office Hour''' - If you are left with questions, the COT will be hosting some office hours (in multiple languages), in multiple time-zones, to answer any programming questions that you might have.  Details can be found [[:wikimania:2021:Organizers#Office hours schedule|here.]]

[[File:Reply Tool A-B test comment completion.png|alt=Junior contributors comment completion rate across all participating Wikipedias|thumb|296x296px|When newcomers had the Reply tool and tried to post on a talk page, they were more successful at posting a comment. ([https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ Source])]]

Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of [[mw:Talk pages project/Replying|the Reply Tool]].  The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped [[mw:Talk pages project/Glossary|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 (&quot;default on&quot;) access to the Reply tool were [https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ more likely] to post a comment on a talk page.
* The comments that newer editors made with the Reply Tool were also [https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ 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.

&lt;strong&gt;Looking ahead&lt;/strong&gt;

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 [[phab:T280599|resolve a technical challenge]]. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the [[phab:T267379|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 &quot;{{int:discussiontools-preference-label}}&quot; [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|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]].

The [[foundation:|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. &lt;!--

 They will switch all traffic back to the primary data center on '''Tuesday, October 27 2020'''. --&gt;

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|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 [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1624975200 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 [[wikitech:Switch_Datacenter#Schedule_for_2021_switch|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.

== Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election has come to an end ==

Thank you for participating in the [[:meta:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2021|2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election]]! Voting closed August 31 at 23:59. The official data, including the four most voted candidates, will be announced as soon as the [[:meta:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_committee|Elections Committee]] completes their review of the ballots. The official announcement of the new trustees appointed will happen later, once the selected candidates have been confirmed by the Board.

6,946 community members from 216 wiki projects have voted. This makes 10.2% global participation, 1.1% higher than in the last Board elections. In 2017, 5167 people from 202 wiki projects cast their vote. A full analysis is planned to be published in a few days when the confirmed results are announced. In the meantime, you can check the [[:meta:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2021/Stats|data produced during the election]].

Diversity was an important goal with these elections. Messages about the Board election were translated into 61 languages. This outreach worked well. There were 70 communities with eligible voters voting in this election for the first time. With your help, next year’s Board of Trustees election will be even better.

== The 2022 Community Wishlist Survey will happen in January ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
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:

&lt;div style=&quot;font-style:italic;&quot;&gt;
We will be running the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|dedicated sandbox to leave early ideas for the 2022 wishes]].
&lt;/div&gt;

=== Proposing and wish-fulfillment will happen during the same year ===

In the past, the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Tech|Community Tech]] team has run the Community Wishlist Survey for the following year in November of the prior year. For example, we ran the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2021|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2020|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Community Wishlist Survey|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Community Wishlist Survey|talk page]] (in any language you prefer) or at our Talk to Us meetings.

*You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Tuesday, 14 September 2021. The test will start at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1631628049 14:00 UTC] (07:00 PDT, 10:00 EDT, 15:00 WEST/BST, 16:00 CEST, 19:30 IST, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Wednesday, 15 September).
*If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

''Other effects'':

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

This project may be postponed if necessary.  You can [[wikitech:Switch_Datacenter|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.

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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Strategy and Governance|Movement Strategy and Governance team]] on Meta, on [https://t.me/wmboardgovernancechat Telegram], or via email at msg[[File:At sign.svg|16x16px|link=|(_AT_)]]wikimedia.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&lt;section end=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;

== Enquête over de verlanglijst van de gemeenschap 2022 ==

[[File:Community Wishlist Survey Lamp.svg|right|200px]]
De '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2022|2022 enquête over de verlanglijst van de gemeenschap]]''' is nu geopend!

De enquête is de manier waarmee gemeenschappen bepalen waar het [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Tech|Community Tech]] team volgend jaar aan moet gaan werken. We moedigen iedereen aan om voorstellen in te dienen voor de deadline op '''23 januari''', of om te reageren op andere voorstellen om ze te helpen verbeteren.

De gemeenschappen stemmen op de voorstellen tussen 28 januari en 11 februari.

Het Community Tech team is gefocussed op hulpmiddelen voor ervaren Wikimedia bewerkers. U kunt voorstellen in elke taal opstellen en wij vertalen deze. Bedankt en we kijken uit naar uw voorstellen!

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.

=== Several improvements around templates ===
Hello, from March 9, several improvements around templates will become available on your wiki:
* Fundamental improvements of the [[Mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide#Editing templates|VisualEditor template dialog]] ([[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/VisualEditor template dialog improvements|1]], [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Removing a template from a page using the VisualEditor|2]]),
* Improvements to make it easier to put a template on a page ([[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Finding and inserting templates|3]]) (for the template dialogs in [[Mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide#Editing templates|VisualEditor]], [[Mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:WikiEditor#/media/File:VectorEditorBasic-en.png|2010 Wikitext]] and [[Mw:Special:MyLanguage/2017 wikitext editor|New Wikitext Mode]]),
* and improvements in the syntax highlighting extension [[Mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] ([[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Improved Color Scheme of Syntax Highlighting|4]], [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Bracket Matching|5]]) (which is available on wikis with writing direction left-to-right).

All these changes are part of the “[[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Templates|Templates]]” project by [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes|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. &lt;/div&gt; - [[m:User:Johanna Strodt (WMDE)|Johanna Strodt (WMDE)]] 12:38, 28 Februarie 2022 (UTC)

Hello everyone,

A [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Voting|'''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. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Voter_information|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct|Universal Code of Conduct]] (UCoC) provides a baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire movement. The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines|revised enforcement guidelines]] were published 24 January 2022 as a proposed way to apply the policy across the movement. A [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_noticeboard/January_2022_-_Board_of_Trustees_on_Community_ratification_of_enforcement_guidelines_of_UCoC|Wikimedia Foundation Board statement]] calls for a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Voting|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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Voter_information/Volunteer|translate and share important information]]. For more information about the UCoC, please see the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Project|project page]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/FAQ|frequently asked questions]] on Meta-wiki.

There are events scheduled to learn more and discuss:
* A [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Conversations/Panel_Q&amp;A|community panel]] recorded on 18 February 2022 shares perspectives from small- and medium-sized community participants.
* The [[m:Movement Strategy and Governance|Movement Strategy and Governance]] (MSG) team is hosting Conversation Hours on 4 March 2022 at 15:00 UTC. Please [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Conversations|'''sign-up''']] to interact with the project team and the drafting committee about the updated enforcement guidelines and the ratification process. See the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/2022_conversation_hour_summaries|Conversation Hour summaries]] for notes from 4 February 2022 and 25 February 2022.

&lt;section begin=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;Hello! 

The Movement Strategy and Governance team of the Wikimedia Foundation would like to invite you to the next event about &quot;Regional and Thematic Hubs&quot;. The Wikimedia Movement is in the process of understanding what Regional and Thematic Hubs should be. Our workshop in November was a good start ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Documentation/27 November Workshop|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 ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Dialogue|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. '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Global Conversations March 12, 2022|More information on the event on Meta-wiki]]'''.

[[File:Overview of changes in the VisualEditor template dialog by WMDE Technical Wishes.webm|thumb|Fundamental changes in the template dialog.]]
Hello, more changes around templates are coming to your wiki soon:

The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide#Editing templates|'''template dialog''' in VisualEditor]] and in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2017 wikitext editor|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. 
* [[metawiki:WMDE Technical Wishes/VisualEditor template dialog improvements|project page]], [[metawiki:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/VisualEditor template dialog improvements|talk page]]

The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022|2022 Board of Trustees election]] is here! Please consider submitting your candidacy to serve on the Board of Trustees.

The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees oversees the Wikimedia Foundation's operations. Community-and-affiliate selected trustees and Board-appointed trustees make up the Board of Trustees. Each trustee serves a three year term. The Wikimedia community has the opportunity to vote for community-and-affiliate selected trustees.

The Wikimedia community will vote to fill two seats on the Board in 2022. This is an opportunity to improve the representation, diversity, and expertise of the Board as a team.

;Who are potential candidates? Are you a potential candidate? Find out more on the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Apply to be a Candidate|Apply to be a Candidate page]].

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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Community Affairs Committee|Community Affairs committee (CAC)]] of the Board [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/JAYQN3NYKCHQHONMUONYTI6WRKZFQNSC/ 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 [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee|UCoC Drafting Committees]] have generously offered their time to help shape improvements to the Guidelines. You can read more about them and their work [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee#Revisions_Committee|here]], as well as read [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Drafting_committee/Phase_2_meeting_summaries#2022|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 ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Revision_discussions|Enforcement Guidelines revision discussions]], [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Policy text/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 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;section end=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;

== Desktopverbeteringen-update ==

[[File:Table of contents shown on English Wikipedia 02.webm|thumb]]
; Dit de nieuwe standaard maken
{{int:Hello}}. Ik wilde graag een update geven over het [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop_Improvements|Desktopverbeteringen]]-project, waar het Wikimedia Foundation-webteam de afgelopen jaren aan heeft gewerkt. Ons werk is bijna klaar! 🎉

Wij zouden graag zien dat deze verbeteringen de standaard worden voor lezers en bewerkers op alle wiki's. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color:#fc3;&quot;&gt;In de komende weken zullen we gesprekken beginnen op meer wiki's, waaronder die van jou. 🗓️&lt;/span&gt; We lezen graag uw suggesties!

Het doel van het project is om de interface uitnodigender en comfortabeler te maken voor lezers en nuttiger voor gevorderde gebruikers. Het project bestaat uit een reeks functieverbeteringen die het gemakkelijker maken om te lezen en te leren, binnen de pagina te navigeren, te zoeken, te wisselen van taal, artikeltabbladen en het gebruikersmenu te gebruiken, en meer. De verbeteringen zijn standaard al zichtbaar voor lezers en bewerkers op meer dan 30 wiki's, waaronder de Wikipedia's in het [[:fr:|Frans]], [[:pt:|Portugees]] en [[:fa:|Perzisch]].

De wijzigingen zijn alleen van toepassing op de skin [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}|useskin=vector}} Vector]. [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}|useskin=monobook}} Monobook] of [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}|useskin=timeless}} Timeless] worden niet beïnvloed.

; De nieuwste functies
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop_Improvements/Features/Table of contents|Inhoudsopgave]] - onze versie is gemakkelijker te bereiken, context van de pagina te verkrijgen, en door de pagina te navigeren zonder te hoeven scrollen. Het wordt momenteel getest op onze pilot-wiki's.  Het is ook beschikbaar voor bewerkers die zich hebben aangemeld voor de Vector 2022-skin.
* [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop_Improvements/Features/Page tools|Paginahulpmiddelen]] - er zijn nu twee soorten links in de zijbalk. Er zijn acties en hulpmiddelen voor individuele pagina's (zoals [[Special:RecentChangesLinked|Gerelateerde wijzigingen]]) en links van wiki-brede aard (zoals [[Special:RecentChanges|Recente wijzigingen]]). We gaan deze opsplitsen in twee intuïtieve menu's.
; Hoe de verbeteringen te activeren
[[File:Desktop Improvements - how to enable globally.png|thumb|[[Special:GlobalPreferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|{{int:globalpreferences}}]]]]
* Het is mogelijk het op individuele wiki's te activeren [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|op het tabblad Uiterlijk in de voorkeuren]] door &quot;{{int:skinname-vector-2022}}&quot; te selecteren. Het is ook mogelijk het op alle wiki's tegelijk te activeren met behulp van de [[Special:GlobalPreferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|Globale voorkeuren]].
* Op wiki's waar de wijzigingen standaard voor iedereen zichtbaar zijn, kunnen ingelogde gebruikers altijd teruggaan naar de oude Vector. Er is een gemakkelijk toegankelijke link in de zijbalk van de nieuwe Vector.

Hi all,

Community members in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022|2022 Board of Trustees election]] are invited to [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022/Community_Voting/Election_Compass|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

Hi everyone,

* Tobechukwu Precious Friday ([[:m:User:Tochiprecious|Tochiprecious]])
* Farah Jack Mustaklem ([[:m:User:Fjmustak|Fjmustak]])

You may see more information about the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Results|Results]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Stats|Statistics]] of this Board election.

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.''' [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022#Timeline|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:

* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Candidates|Read candidates’ statements]] and read the candidates’ answers to the questions posed by the Affiliate Representatives.
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022/Community_Voting/Questions_for_Candidates|Propose and select the 6 questions for candidates to answer during their video Q&amp;A]].
* See the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Candidates|Analysis Committee’s ratings of candidates on each candidate’s statement]].
* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022/Community Voting/Election Compass|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.
