Нужна облегчённая версия викификатора для лакского раздела Википедии. Заодно кроме единиц можно заменять и латинскую l её иногда тоже пишут вместо палочки. В Юникоде есть символ для палочки, но на него лучше не заменять, потому что он плохо отображается пока по шрифтам. По печатным текстам чисто внешне палочка — это заглавная латинская i. Важно, чтобы заменялись не все единицы на I, а только единицы в словах. С регулярными выражениями это должно быть несложно сделать. Слова могут начинаться с палочки, содержать её в середине и в конце; поэтому более строгих правил не сформулировать. Временный администратор лакского раздела — Участник: Он может вставить получившийся код в интерфейс. От имени участников проекта ru: I am writing to you to promote a special wiki called Betawiki. This wiki facilitates the localisation l10n of the MediaWiki interface. You may have changed many messages here to use your language in the interface, but if you would log in to for example the Japanese language Wiktionary, you would not be able to use the interface as well translated as here. In fact, of over 1, messages in the core of MediaWiki, 11 messages have been translated. Betawiki also supports the translation of messages for well over extensions, with over 1, messages. Translators for over 70 languages contribute their work to MediaWiki this way every month. If you wish to contribute to better support of your language in MediaWiki, as well as for many MediaWiki extensions, please visit Betawiki , create an account and request translator privileges. You can see the current status of localisation of your language on MediaWiki. If you have any further questions, please let me know on my talk page on Betawiki. We will try and assist you as much as possible, for example by importing all messages from a local wiki for you to start with, if you so desire. You can also find us on the Freenode IRC network in the channel mediawiki-i18n where we would be happy to help you get started. Thank you very much for your attention and I do hope to see some of you on Betawiki soon! Предлагаю выдать этим ботам флаги. The LocalisationUpdate extension is now enabled for all Wikimedia projects. From now on new localisations that become available in SVN will become available to your project within 24 hours. Your localisations get into SVN from translatewiki. This is a huge improvement from the old practice where the localisations became available with new software. This could take weeks, even months. The localisations done by our community at translatewiki. When the system messages in English are the same as the local messages, they will now be inserted in a file and are available for use in all our projects in a timely manner. Local messages have an impact on the performance of our system. It is best when messages are as much as possible part of the system messages. In order to remove unnecessary duplication, all the messages that have a local localisation and are exactly the same as the system message will be removed. What we ask you to do is to compare and proof read the messages in translatewiki. You can then either remove local messages when the translatewiki. Messages that are specific to your project will have to stay as they are. You do want to check if the format and the variables of the message are still the same. When you localise at translatewiki. This is how we provide the standard support for your language. When messages change, at translatewiki. Localising is more efficient because we have innovated the process to make you more efficient; there is text explaining about messages and we have applied AJAX technology to reduce the number of clicks you have to make. We expect that with the implementation of LocalisationUpdate the usability of MediaWiki for your language will improve. We are now ready to look at other aspects of usability for your language as well. There are two questions we would like you to answer: Are there issues with the new functionality of the Usability Initiative Does MediaWiki support your language properly. The best way to answer the first question is to visit the translatewiki. And make some changes in your user page. When there is a need to improve on the localisation, please make the necessary changes s. It should update your localisation straight away. We would like you to report each issue individually at http: When there are problems with the support of MediaWiki for your language, we really want to know about this. It is best to report each issue separately. In this way there will be no large mass of issues to resolve but we can address each issue on its own. Consider issues with the display of characters, the presentation of your script, the position of the side bar, the combination of text with other languages, scripts. It is best to try this in an environment like the prototype wiki as it provides you with a clean, basic and up to date environment. The prototype wiki is available for five languages but you can select any of them, change the preferences to your language and test out MediaWiki for your language. The issues you raise will all be assessed. It is important to keep each issue separate, because this will make it easier to understand the issues and find solutions. PS This text has been approved by Naoko, Brion and Siebrand. I have looked for his biography in your Wikipedia but without success. Polish Wikipedians will be grateful for your help.

Hello Wikipedians, my name is Sam and I am working for the Wikimedia Foundation during the Fundraiser. My job is to be the liaison between your community and the Foundation. Use the talk pages on meta, talk to your local communities, talk to others, talk to us, and add your feedback to the proposed messages as well! Надо перевести интерфейс с русского или английского на лакский. Видеть сайт с правильно переведённым меню на родном языке полностью меняет чуство и отношение к нему - после перевода люди поймут, что это серьёзный язык, и что на нём действительно можно писать энциклопедию. Переводить интерфейс на разные языки теперь намного легче, чем раньше. Спустя несколько дней после перевода в translatewiki. В отличие от написания статей, здесь надо всего лишь переводить короткие фразы и это очень легко. Все, кто знает лакский язык: Если у вас что-нибудь не получается, обратитесь ко мне, и я вам помогу это наладить. Мы в году и пора начать пользоваться настоящей юникодовой палочкой. В Кабардино-Черкесской Википедии ею уже пользуются эта википедия очень хорошо развивается в инкубаторе и скоро откроется. Надо создать новую эмблему. В большинстве википедий она обновилась почти год назад. Сделать это я могу сам, только скажите мне: Или может стоит его обновить? Амир, тут нет ни одного человека, говорящего по-лакски. Люди приходят, делают правки, и навсегда пропадают. Мы уже и по форумам пробовали людей собирать - энтузиазма хватает максимум на пару недель, потом снова никого нет. Видимо, надо просто ждать, пока кто-нибудь появится. This is the first multilingual Wikipedia collaboration. All Wikipedians can take part, in any Wikipedia language. The challenge runs from 1 May until 3 September Wikimedia Foundation is getting ready to push out 1. As we finish wrapping up our code review, you can test the new version right now on beta. For more information, please read the release notes or the start of the final announcement. You should avoid using the same password as you use here. The Wikimedia Foundation has brought together a new team of developers who are dedicated to language support. This team is to support all the languages and consequently it is not realistic to expect that the team members can provide proper support for your language. It is for this reason that we are looking for volunteers who will make up a language support team. This language support team will be asked to provide us with information about their language. Such information may need to be provided either to us or on a website that we will indicate to you. Another activity will be to test software that will likely have an effect on the running of the MediaWiki software. We are looking for people who clearly identify their ability. Formal knowledge is definitely appreciated. As much of the activity will be concentrated on translatewiki. The Babel extension is used to indicate the proficiency of the Lak language on translatewiki. Would you be willing to help us by localising the [ http: The Wikimedia Foundation is planning to upgrade MediaWiki the software powering this wiki to its latest version this month. You can help to test it before it is enabled, to avoid disruption and breakage. More information is available in the full announcement. Thank you for your understanding.

We are interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year Any user registered at Commons or a Wikimedia wiki SUL-related to Commons with more than 75 edits before 1 April UTC is welcome to vote and, of course everyone is welcome to view! Detailed information about the contest can be found at the introductory page. For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topic categories. We regret that you receive this message in English; we intended to use banners to notify you in your native language but there was both, human and technical resistance. See you on Commons! As many of you are aware, the Wikimedia Board of Trustees recently initiated important changes in the way that money is being distributed within the Wikimedia movement. As part of this, a new community-led " Funds Dissemination Committee " FDC is currently being set up. Already in , its recommendations will guide the decisions about the distribution of over 10 million US dollars among the Foundation, chapters and other eligible entities. Now, seven capable, knowledgeable and trustworthy community members are sought to volunteer on the initial Funds Dissemination Committee. It is expected to take up its work in September. In addition, a community member is sought to be the Ombudsperson for the FDC process. If you are interested in joining the committee, read the call for volunteers. Nominations are planned to close on August You might also be interested in the idea to create a central Wikipedia Library where approved editors would have access to all participating resource donors.

I would be grateful if you could translate this message into your language. The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a request for comment on a proposed program that could provide legal assistance to users in specific support roles who are named in a legal complaint as a defendant because of those roles. We wanted to be sure that your community was aware of this discussion and would have a chance to participate in that discussion. If this page is not the best place to publicize this request for comment, please help spread the word to those who may be interested in participating. As some of you might already have heard Wikimedia Deutschland is working on a new Wikimedia project. It is called m: The goal of Wikidata is to become a central data repository for the Wikipedias, its sister projects and the world. In the future it will hold data like the number of inhabitants of a country, the date of birth of a famous person or the length of a river. These can then be used in all Wikimedia projects and outside of them. The project is divided into three phases and "we are getting close to roll-out the first phase". You can find all the relevant information including an FAQ and sign-up links for our on-wiki newsletter on the Wikidata page on Meta. For further discussions please use this talk page if you are uncomfortable writing in English you can also write in your native language there or point me to the place where your discussion is happening so I can answer there. This wiki will be switched to the up to date Wikipedia logo in about a week. You can see it on commons: Thank you, Global message delivery feedback All Wikimedia wikis - including this one - will soon be upgraded with new and possibly disruptive code. If you notice any problems, please report problems at our defect tracker site. You can test for possible problems at test2. Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation Engineering Community Manager talk For the regular, smaller MediaWiki updates every two weeks, please watch this schedule.

Next week, the Wikimedia Foundation will transition its main technical operations to a new data center in Ashburn, Virginia, USA. This is intended to improve the technical performance and reliability of all Wikimedia sites, including this wiki. There will be some times when the site will be in read-only mode, and there may be full outages; the current target windows for the migration are January 22nd, 23rd and 24th, , from If you would like to stay informed of future technical upgrades, consider becoming a Tech ambassador and joining the ambassadors mailing list. You will be able to help your fellow Wikimedians have a voice in technical discussions and be notified of important decisions. Voting is open to established Wikimedia users who meet the following criteria:. Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. The first round category winners and the top ten overall will then make it to the final. In the final round, when a limited number of images are left, you must decide on the one image that you want to become the Picture of the Year.

It is now time for the roll-out of the first part of it on your Wikipedia. Phase 1 is the support for the management of language links. It is already being used on the Hungarian, Hebrew, Italian and English Wikipedias. The next step is to enable the extension on all other Wikipedias. We have currently planned this for March 6. Wikidata is a central place to store data that you can usually find in infoboxes. Think of it as something like Wikimedia Commons but for data like the number of inhabitants of a country or the length of a river instead of multimedia. The first part of this project centralizing language links is being rolled out now. The more fancy things will follow later. Language links in the sidebar are going to come from Wikidata in addition to the ones in the wiki text. To edit them, scroll to the bottom of the language links, and click edit. You no longer need to maintain these links by hand in the wiki text of the article. You can see previous editions here. Sorry for writing in English. I hope someone can translate this locally. If you understand German better than English you can have a look at the announcement on de: As I annonced 2 weeks ago, Wikidata phase 1 language links has been deployed here today. Language links in the sidebar are coming from Wikidata in addition to the ones in the wiki text. Where can I find more information and ask questions? Please consider translating this message for the benefit of your fellow Wikimedians. As you might have seen on the Wikimedia tech blog or the tech ambassadors list , a new functionality called "Lua" is being enabled on all Wikimedia sites today. Lua is a scripting language that enables you to write faster and more powerful MediaWiki templates. IRC office hours for the details. You will also be able to help your fellow Wikimedians have a voice in technical discussions and be notified of important decisions. Guillaume Paumier , via the Global message delivery system. I hope someone can translate this. A while ago the first phase of Wikidata was enabled on this Wikipedia. This means you are getting the language links in each article from Wikidata. It is soon time to enable the second phase of Wikidata infoboxes here. We have already done this on the [ first 11 Wikipedias ] it, he, hu, ru, tr, uk, uz, hr, bs, sr, sh and things are looking good. The next step is English Wikipedia. This is planned for April 8. If everything works out fine we will deploy on all remaining Wikipedias on April I will update this part of the FAQ if there are any issues forcing us to change this date. I will also sent another note to this village pump once the deployment is finished. What will happen once we have phase 2 enabled here? It includes things like the symbol for a chemical element, the ISBN for a book or the top level domain of a country. None of this will happen automatically. Someone will have to change the article or infobox template for this to happen! The complete plan for this is here. Where can I test this? You can already test it on test2. We have collected the main questions in an FAQ for this deployment. Пожалуйста, рассмотрите вопрос о переводе этого сообщения для ваших викимедийцев. Также рассмотрите вопрос о переводе предложения. На Мета-вики был размещён новый запрос на комментирование , касающийся снятия административных прав с неактивных долгое время викимедийцев. Как правило, это предложение стюардов будет применяться в проектах Фонда без рассмотрения администраторов. Мы также составили список проектов с существующей процедурой снятия прав с неактивных администраторов на странице обсуждения запроса. Не стесняйтесь добавлять ваш и проект ы в этот список, если в них есть соответствующее правило. Каждый комментарий будет ценным для нас. Дискуссия может быть закрыта 21 мая , но может быть продлена в случае необходимости. С благодарностью, Billinghurst thanks to all the translators! We have now enabled the second phase of Wikidata infoboxes here. We have already done this on the [ first 11 Wikipedias ] it, he, hu, ru, tr, uk, uz, hr, bs, sr, sh a month ago and two days ago on the English Wikipedia. Today all the remaining Wikipedias followed. What does having phase 2 enabled here mean? The current state is just the beginning though. It will be extended based on feedback we get from you now. We are excited about taking yet another step towards allowing all Wikipedias share structured data and collect and curate it together. Some accounts will soon be renamed due to a technical change that the developer team at Wikimedia are making. More details on Meta. Distributed via global message delivery The default position of the "edit" link in page section headers is going to change soon. The "edit" link will be positioned adjacent to the page header text rather than floating opposite it. Section edit links will be to the immediate right of section titles, instead of on the far right. Detailed information and a timeline is available on meta. Ideas to do this all the way to at least. It is often difficult to track which of several potential section edit links on the far right is associated with the correct section, and many readers and anonymous or new editors may even be failing to notice section edit links at all, since they read section titles, which are far away from the links.

The ULS provides a flexible way to configure and deliver language settings like interface language, fonts, and input methods keyboard mappings. Making it available here is the last phase of making ULS available on all Wikimedia wikis. Please read the announcement on Meta-Wiki for more information. There is a manual for doing that and a blog post explaining about this change in non-technical language. If you have question feel free to ask in mw: Best Amir via Global message delivery. The Wikimedia Foundation will soon turn on VisualEditor for all users, all the time on your Wikipedia. Right now your Wikipedia does not have any local documents on VisualEditor, and we hope that your community can change that. To find out about how you can help with translations visit the TranslationCentral for VisualEditor and read the easy instructions on bringing information to your Wikipedia. The User Guide and the FAQ are very important to have in your language. We want to find out as much as we can from you about VisualEditor and how it helps your Wikipedia, and having local pages is a great way to start. We also encourage you to leave feedback on Mediawiki where the community can offer ideas, opinions, and point out bugs that may still exist in the software that need to be reported to Bugzilla. If you are able to speak for the concerns of others in English on MediaWiki or locally I encourage you to help your community to be represented in this process. If you can help translate the user interface for VisualEditor to your language, you can help with that as well. Translatewiki has open tasks for translating VisualEditor. A direct link to translate the user interface is here. You can see how we are doing with those translations here. You need an account on Translatewiki to translate. This account is free and easy to create. If we can help your community in any way with this process, please let me know and I will do my best to assist your Wikipedia with this exciting development. You can contact me on my meta talk page or by email. You can also contact Patrick Earley for help with translations and documents on Mediawiki. We look forward to working with you to bring the VisualEditor experience to your Wikipedia! Keegan WMF talk Starting on August 21 tomorrow , all users with an account will be using HTTPS to access Wikimedia sites. HTTPS brings better security and improves your privacy. More information is available at m: If HTTPS causes problems for you, tell us on bugzilla , on IRC in the wikimedia-operations channel or on meta.

The legal team at the Wikimedia Foundation would greatly appreciate your input on the best way to manage the "community logo" pictured here to best balance protection of the projects with community support. Your input would be invaluable in helping guide them in how best to serve our mission. Notifications will inform users about new activity that affects them on this wiki in a unified way: It is important that notifications is translated for all of the languages we serve. Please let us know if you have any questions, suggestions or comments about this new tool. For more information, visit this project hub and this help page. Please join the consultation about the Community logo that represents Meta-Wiki: This community consultation was commenced on September The following day, two individuals filed a legal opposition against the registration of the Community logo. The question is whether the Wikimedia Foundation should seek a collective membership mark with respect to this logo or abandon its registration and protection of the trademark. We want to make sure that everyone get a chance to speak up so that we can get clear direction from the community. We would like to let you know about Beta Features , a new program from the Wikimedia Foundation that lets you try out new features before they are released for everyone. Think of it as a digital laboratory where community members can preview upcoming software and give feedback to help improve them. Beta Features is now ready for testing on MediaWiki. It will also be released on Wikimedia Commons and MetaWiki this Thursday, 7 November. Based on test results, the plan is to release it on all wikis worldwide on 21 November, Would you like to try out Beta Features now? After you log in on MediaWiki. Learn more on the Beta Features page. Along with other developers, they will be adding new features to this experimental program every few weeks. They are very grateful to all the community members who helped create this project — and look forward to many more productive collaborations in the future. VisualEditor is coming to this project on December 2, VisualEditor is software in development to allow people to edit pages in MediaWiki without needing to learn wikitext syntax like typing [[ to start a link. It is already available and in use on some Wikipedia projects. When this software arrives, you will have the option to use it or to use the current wikitext editor. For more information about how to use VisualEditor, see mw: We hope that this software will be useful to people in your community, and we can really use your help to make it better! Please let us know if you find any problems. If you would prefer not, please explain the issue you found on the central feedback page on mediawiki. Once VisualEditor is made available, if there are any urgent problems, like an unexpected bug suddenly causing widespread severe problems, please e-mail James Forrester, the Product Manager, at jforrester wikimedia. We would also appreciate help with translation with the pages about VisualEditor here and on MediaWiki. To translate the user interface, start by creating an account at TranslateWiki. Once your account request is approved, all you need to do is select your language from this list. This will give you a list of individual lines and paragraphs. The User Guide is another important document. To translate this, simply go to the MediaWiki. Your language should be available from the drop-down menu on the right. If you want to help with translations and would like to talk about how, please leave a message for me on my talk page. Thank you, and happy editing! The Wikimedia legal team invites you to participate in the development of the new Wikimedia trademark policy. The current trademark policy was introduced in to protect the Wikimedia marks. We are now updating this policy to better balance permissive use of the marks with the legal requirements for preserving them for the community. The new draft trademark policy is ready for your review here , and we encourage you to discuss it here. We would appreciate if someone would translate this message into your language so more members of your community can contribute to the conversation. I apologize for this message being only in English. Please translate it if needed to help your community. This digital video standard is used widely around the world to record, edit and watch videos on mobile phones, desktop computers and home video devices. It is also known as H. Supporting the MP4 format would make it much easier for our users to view and contribute video on Wikipedia and Wikimedia projects -- and video files could be offered in dual formats on our sites, so we could continue to support current open formats WebM and Ogg Theora. However, MP4 is a patent-encumbered format, and using a proprietary format would be a departure from our current practice of only supporting open formats on our sites -- even though the licenses appear to have acceptable legal terms, with only a small fee required. We would appreciate your guidance on whether or not to support MP4. Please join this RfC -- and share your advice. All users are welcome to participate, whether you are active on Commons, Wikipedia, other Wikimedia project -- or any site that uses content from our free media repository. We look forward to a constructive discussion with you, so we can make a more informed decision together on this important topic. On January 21 the MediaWiki extension Universal Language Selector ULS was disabled on this wiki. A new preference was added for logged-in users to turn on ULS. This was done to prevent slow loading of pages due to ULS webfonts, a behaviour that had been observed by the Wikimedia Technical Operations team on some wikis. We are now ready to enable ULS again. The temporary preference to enable ULS will be removed. This will be unchecked by default for this wiki, but can be selected at any time by the users to enable webfonts. This is an interim solution while we improve the feature of webfonts delivery. You can read the announcement and the development plan for more information. Apologies for writing this message only in English. Please join a discussion about a proposed amendment to the Wikimedia Terms of Use regarding undisclosed paid editing and we encourage you to voice your thoughts there. Please translate this statement if you can, and we welcome you to translate the proposed amendment and introduction. Please see the discussion on Meta Wiki for more information. Do you have an idea for a project that could improve your community? Individual Engagement Grants from the Wikimedia Foundation help support individuals and small teams to organize experiments for 6 months. You can get funding to try out your idea for online community organizing, outreach, tool-building, or research to help make Википедия better. Proposals are due by 31 March There are a number of ways to get involved! Want to find out more? From March 16 to April 15 we will organise the Catalan Culture Challenge , a Wikipedia editing contest in which victory will go to those who start and improve the greatest number of articles about 50 key figures of Catalan culture. You can take part by creating or expanding articles on these people in your native language or any other one you speak. It would be lovely to have you on board. Amical Wikimedia -- Kippelboy обсуждение This week, the typography on Wikimedia sites will be updated for all readers and editors who use the default "Vector" skin. This change will involve new serif fonts for some headings, small tweaks to body content fonts, text size, text color, and spacing between elements. This change is very similar to the "Typography Update" Beta Feature that has been available on Wikimedia projects since November After several rounds of testing and with feedback from the community, this Beta Feature will be disabled and successful aspects enabled in the default site appearance. Users who are logged in may still choose to use another skin, or alter their personal CSS , if they prefer a different appearance. Local common CSS styles will also apply as normal, for issues with local styles and scripts that impact all users. It was noted that on this wiki you have less than 10 local files. All registered users can upload on Commons and existing files will not be affected. I wanted to let you know that Media Viewer will be released to this wiki in the coming weeks. Media Viewer allows readers of Wikimedia projects to have an enhanced view of files without having to visit the file page, but with more detail than a thumbnail. You can try Media Viewer out now by turning it on in your Beta Features. If you do not enjoy Media Viewer or if it interferes with your work after it is turned on you will be able to disable Media Viewer as well in your preferences. I invite you to share what you think about Media Viewer and how it can be made better in the future. Thank you for your time. Was there an error? I propose to have. Media Viewer displays images in larger size when you click on their thumbnails, to provide a better viewing experience. Users can now view images faster and more clearly, without having to jump to separate pages — and its user interface is more intuitive, offering easy access to full-resolution images and information, with links to the file repository for editing. The tool has been tested extensively across all Wikimedia wikis over the past six months as a Beta Feature and has been released to the largest Wikipedias, all language Wikisources, and the English Wikivoyage already. If you do not like this feature, you can easily turn it off by clicking on "Disable Media Viewer" at the bottom of the screen, pulling up the information panel or in your your preferences whether you have an account or not. Learn more in this Media Viewer Help page. Please let us know if you have any questions or comments about Media Viewer. You are invited to share your feedback in this discussion on MediaWiki. We hope you enjoy Media Viewer. Many thanks to all the community members who helped make it possible. This is a one-time mailing to projects that may need this information. Future newsletters will be available as opt-in only. The character formatting menu, or "Стиль текста" menu lets you set bold, italic, and other text styles. Do you think that clear formatting should remove links? Are there changes you would like to see for this menu? Share your opinion at MediaWiki. The user guide has information about how to use VisualEditor. The VisualEditor team is mostly working to fix bugs, improve performance, reduce technical debt, and other infrastructure needs. You can find on Mediawiki. The VisualEditor team has posted a draft of their goals for the next fiscal year. You can read them and suggest changes on MediaWiki. You will soon be able to drag-and-drop text as well as images. All dialog boxes and windows will be simplified based on user testing and feedback. The VisualEditor team plans to add autofill features for citations. Your ideas about making referencing quick and easy are still wanted. Support for upright image sizes is being developed. The designers are also working on support for viewing and editing hidden HTML comments and adding rows and columns to tables. This menu will not appear unless it has been configured on your wiki. If you speak a language other than English, we need your help with translating the user guide. Please contact us if you need help getting started with translation work on MediaWiki. VisualEditor can be made available to most non-Wikipedia projects. If your community would like to test VisualEditor, please contact product manager James Forrester or file an enhancement request in Bugzilla. Please share your questions, suggestions, or problems by posting a note at mw: If you are not able to attend but have a question for James, you can leave your question at mediawiki. We plan to continue these monthly sessions as long as there is community interest, and to announce them through the VisualEditor global newsletter as well please subscribe your talk page there to get the latest news about the software. Most of the VisualEditor team will be at Wikimania in London in August! WMF community liaisons will share a booth with community advocates at the Community Village and look forward to talking to you there. Thanks for your attention! The VisualEditor team is currently working mostly to fix bugs, improve performance, reduce technical debt, and other infrastructure needs. The biggest visible change since the last newsletter was to the dialog boxes. The design for each dialog box and window was simplified. The most commonly needed buttons are now at the top. Many of the buttons to edit links, images, and other items now also show the linked page, image name, or other useful information when you click on them. The team posts details about planned work on the VisualEditor roadmap. The VisualEditor team plans to add auto-fill features for citations soon. The designers are also working on support for adding rows and columns to tables. Work to support Internet Explorer is ongoing. The Editing team will be making two presentations this weekend at Wikimania in London. The first is with product manager James Forrester and developer Trevor Parscal on Saturday at Please share your questions, suggestions, or problems by posting a note at the VisualEditor feedback page or by joining the office hours discussion on Thursday, 14 August at Hello and sorry for writing in English. Can anyone help me translate a small article 2 paragraphs from English to your language and create the article in your wiki? Please, fell free to answer in my talk page in your wiki anytime. The Wikimedia Foundation recently created a new feature, "superprotect" status. The purpose is to prevent pages from being edited by elected administrators -- but permitting WMF staff to edit them. It has been put to use in only one case: If you oppose these actions, please add your name to this letter. If you know non-Wikimedians who support our vision for the free sharing of knowledge, and would like to add their names to the list, please ask them to sign an identical version of the letter on change. I am notifying you that a brainstorming session has been started on Meta to help the Wikimedia Foundation increase and better affect community participation in software development across all wiki projects. Basically, how can you be more involved in helping to create features on Wikimedia projects? We are inviting all interested users to voice their ideas on how communities can be more involved and informed in the product development process at the Wikimedia Foundation. It would be very appreciated if you could translate this message to help inform your local communities as well. I and the rest of my team welcome you to participate. We hope to see you on Meta. Kind regards, -- Rdicerb WMF talk The Individual Engagement Grants program is accepting proposals for funding new experiments from September 1st to 30th. Support for some earlier versions of Internet Explorer is being worked on. Happy editing, Elitre WMF Please subscribe to the global monthly newsletter to receive further news about VisualEditor. TemplateData is a separate program that organizes information about the parameters that can be used in a template. VisualEditor reads that data, and uses it to populate its simplified template dialogs. With the new TemplateData editor, it is easier to add information about parameters, because the ones you need to use are pre-loaded. See the help page for TemplateData for more information about adding TemplateData. Since the last newsletter, the Editing team has reduced technical debt, simplified some workflows for template and citation editing, made major progress on Internet Explorer support, and fixed over bugs and requests. Several performance improvements were made, especially to the system around re-using references and reference lists. Weekly updates are posted on Mediawiki. There were three issues that required urgent fixes: Badtitletext bug when you saved. The developers apologize for the disruption, and thank the people who reported these problems quickly. Internet Explorer 10 and 11 users now have access to VisualEditor. Support for Internet Explorer 9 is planned for the future. More editing tools, and availability of VisualEditor on smartphones, is planned for the future. The mobile version of VisualEditor was tweaked to show the context menu for citations instead of basic references bug A bug that broke the editor in iOS was corrected and released early bug For mobile tablet users, three bugs related to scrolling were fixed bug , bug , bug You can use VisualEditor on the mobile version of Wikipedia from your tablet by clicking on the cog in the top-right when editing a page and choosing which editor to use. The tool for editing TemplateData has been deployed to 30 more Wikipedias this week. Other Wikipedias and some other projects may receive access next month. When the tool is enabled, it will add a button above every editing window for a template including documentation subpages. To use it, edit the template page or a subpage, and then click the "Управление TemplateData" button at the top. Read the help page for TemplateData. You can test the TemplateData editor in a sandbox at Mediawiki. Remember that TemplateData should be placed either on a documentation subpage or on the template page itself. Only one block of TemplateData will be used per template. Several interface messages and labels were changed to be simpler, clearer, or shorter, based on feedback from translators and editors. The formatting of dialogs was changed, and more changes to the appearance will be coming soon, when VisualEditor implements the new MediaWiki theme from Design. A preview of the theme is available on Labs for developers. The team also made some improvements for users of the Monobook skin that improved the size of text in toolbars and fixed selections that overlapped menus. VisualEditor-MediaWiki now supplies the mw-redirect and mw-disambig class on links to redirects and disambiguation pages , so that user gadgets that colour in these types of links can be created. If a parameter is marked as required, then you cannot delete that field when you add a new template or edit an existing one bug Language support improved by making annotations use bi-directional isolation so they display correctly with cursoring behaviour as expected and by fixing a bug that crashed VisualEditor when trying to edit a page with a dir attribute but no lang set bug The VisualEditor team plans to add auto-fill features for citations soon, perhaps in late October. The team is also working on support for adding rows and columns to tables , and early work for this may appear within the month. Please comment on the design at Mediawiki. In the future, real-time collaborative editing may be possible in VisualEditor. Some early preparatory work for this was recently done. At Wikimania, several developers gave presentations about VisualEditor. A translation sprint focused on improving access to VisualEditor was supported by many people. Deryck Chan was the top translator. A summary of the work achieved by the translation community is available. Thank you all for your work. This was the first translatable VisualEditor newsletter, so thanks to everybody who made this possible! Please join the office hours on Saturday, 18 October at Give feedback on VisualEditor at mw: Subscribe or unsubscribe at Meta. There are currently requests for comment open on meta to create two new global groups. The first is a group for members of the OTRS permissions queue, which would grant them autopatrolled rights on all wikis except those who opt-out. That proposal can be found at m: The second proposal can be found at m: We would like to hear what you think on both proposals. Both are in English; if you wanted to translate them into your native language that would also be appreciated. It is possible for individual projects to opt-out, so that users in those groups do not have any additional rights on those projects. To do this please start a local discussion, and if there is consensus you can request to opt-out of either or both at m: Apologies for writing in English, please help translate this into your local language. The Wikipedia Library is announcing signups today for, free, full-access accounts to published research as part of our Publisher Donation Program. You can sign up for:. Do better research and help expand the use of high quality references across Wikipedia projects: AbuseFilter is a MediaWiki extension used to detect likely abusive behavior patterns, like pattern vandalism and spam. In , Global AbuseFilters were enabled on a limited set of wikis including Meta-Wiki, MediaWiki. Recently, global abuse filters were enabled on " medium sized wikis " as well. These filters are currently managed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and have shown to be very effective in preventing mass spam attacks across Wikimedia projects. However, there is currently no policy on how the global AbuseFilters will be managed although there are proposals. There is an ongoing request for comment on policy governing the use of the global AbuseFilters. In the meantime, specific wikis can opt out of using the global AbuseFilter. These wikis can simply add a request to this list on Meta-Wiki. More details can be found on this page at Meta-Wiki. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on m: VisualEditor is also available on the mobile version of Wikipedia. Log in and click the pencil icon to open the page you want to edit. Click on the gear-shaped settings button in the upper-right corner to pick which editor to use. It will remember whether you used wikitext or VisualEditor, and use the same editor the next time you edit an article. Not all features are available on the mobile website. Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has fixed many bugs and requests , and worked on support for editing tables and for using non-Latin languages. Their weekly updates are posted on Mediawiki. Informal notes from the recent quarterly review were posted on Meta. Basic support for inserting tables and changing the number of rows and columns in them was just introduced to Wikipedias. Advanced features, like dragging columns to different places, will be added later. To help editors find the most important items more quickly, some items in the toolbar menus are now hidden behind a "Ещё" item , such as "Подчёркнутый" in the styling menu. The French Wikipedia should see better search results for links, templates, and media because the new search engine was turned on for everyone there. This change is expected at the Chinese and German Wikipedias this week, and the following week at the English Wikipedia. The "pawn" system has been mostly replaced. Bugs in this system sometimes added a chess pawn character to wikitext. The replacement provides better support for non-Latin languages , with full support hopefully coming soon. VisualEditor is now provided to editors who use Internet Explorer 10 or 11 on desktop and mobile devices. Internet Explorer 9 is not supported yet. The appearance of dialog boxes has already changed in the mobile version. The appearance on desktops will change soon. You are welcome to compare the old "Apex" design and the new "MediaWiki" theme which will replace it. Several bugs were fixed for internal and external links. If you searched for the full name of the page or file that you wanted to link, sometimes the search engine could not find the page. A link inside a template to a local page that does not exist will now show red, exactly as it does when reading the page. Due to an error, for about two weeks this also affected all external links inside templates. Opening an auto-numbered link node like [18] with the keyboard used to open the wrong link tool. These problems have all been fixed. The tool for quickly editing TemplateData has been deployed to all Wikimedia Foundation wikis on Thursday, 6 November. This tool was already available on the biggest 40 Wikipedias, and now all wikis will have access to it. To use it, edit the template or a subpage, and then click the "Управление TemplateData" button at the top. Read the help page for TemplateData to learn more about it. You can use the new autovalue setting to pre-load a value into a template. This can be used to substitute dates, as in this example , or to add the most common value for that parameter. The autovalue can be overridden by the editor, by typing something else in the field. In TemplateData, you may define a parameter as "required". The template dialog box in VisualEditor will warn editors if they leave a "required" parameter empty, and they will not be able to delete that parameter. If the template can function without this parameter, then please mark it as "предложенный" or "необязательный" in TemplateData instead. The appearance of the media search dialog will improve, to make picking between possible images easier and more visual. The user guide is being updated to add information about editing tables. The translations of the user guide for most languages except Spanish, French, and Dutch are significantly out of date. Please help complete the current translations for users who speak your language. Talk to us if you need help exporting the translated guide to your wiki. Tell the VisualEditor team what you want changed during the office hours via IRC. The next sessions are on Wednesday, 19 November at You can also share your ideas at mw: Also, user experience researcher Abbey Ripstra is looking for editors to show her how they edit Wikipedia. Please sign up for the research program if you would like to hear about opportunities. If you would like to help with translations of this newsletter, please subscribe to the Translators mailing list or contact us directly, so that we can notify you when the next issue is ready. Приглашаю всех в вики-сабантуй который пройдет апреля года в Уфе. You can sign up for new accounts and research materials from:. Other partnerships with accounts available are listed on our partners page. Basic table editing is now available in VisualEditor. You can add and remove rows and columns from tables at the click of a button. The user guide has more information about how to use VisualEditor. Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has fixed many bugs and worked on table editing and performance. Their weekly status reports are posted on mediawiki. Upcoming plans are posted at the VisualEditor roadmap. VisualEditor was deployed to several hundred remaining wikis as an opt-in beta feature at the end of November, except for most Wiktionaries which depend heavily upon templates and all Wikisources which await integration with ProofreadPage. Basic support for editing tables is now available. You can add and delete tables, add and remove rows and columns, set or remove a caption for a table, and merge cells together. To change the contents of a cell, double-click inside it. More features will be added in the coming months. In addition, VisualEditor now ignores broken, invalid rowspan and colspan elements, instead of trying to repair them. This changes a "Абзац" into a "Блок цитирования". Some new keyboard sequences can be used to format content. There are also two other keyboard sequences: If you add a category that has been redirected, then VisualEditor now adds its target. Categories without description pages show up as red. The current VisualEditor design will be replaced with a new theme designed by the User Experience group. The new theme will be visible for desktop systems at mediawiki. You can see a developer preview of the old "Apex" theme and the new "MediaWiki" one which will replace it. The Editing team plans to add auto-fill features for citations in January. Status reports are posted on mediawiki. The Wikimedia Foundation has named its top priorities for this quarter January to March. The first priority is making VisualEditor ready for deployment by default to all new users and logged-out users at the remaining large Wikipedias. You can help identify these requirements. There will be weekly triage meetings which will be open to volunteers beginning Wednesday, 11 February at Tell Vice President of Engineering Damon Sicore , Product Manager James Forrester and other team members which bugs and features are most important to you. The presence of volunteers who enjoy contributing MediaWiki code is particularly appreciated. Information about how to join the meeting will be posted at mw: Due to some breaking changes in MobileFrontend and VisualEditor, VisualEditor was not working correctly on the mobile site for a couple of days in early January. The teams apologize for the problem. Several new versions of the OOjs UI library have also been released, and these also affect the appearance of VisualEditor and other MediaWiki software extensions. Most changes were minor, like changing the text size and the amount of white space in some windows. Buttons are consistently color-coded to indicate whether the action:. The TemplateData editor has been completely re-written to use a different design based on the same OOjs UI system as VisualEditor. This change fixed a couple of existing bugs and improved usability. Search and replace in long documents is now faster. It does not highlight every occurrence if there are more than on-screen at once. Editors at the Hebrew and Russian Wikipedia requested the ability to use VisualEditor in the "Article Incubator" or drafts namespace. If your community would like VisualEditor enabled on another namespace on your wiki, then you can file a request in Phabricator. Please include a link to a community discussion about the requested change. The Editing team will soon add auto-fill features for citations. The Citoid service takes a URL or DOI for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. After creating it, you will be able to change or add information to the citation, in the same way that you edit any other pre-existing citation in VisualEditor. Support for ISBNs, PMIDs, and other identifiers is planned. We will need editors to help test the new design of the special character inserter , especially if you speak Welsh, Breton, or another language that uses diacritics or special characters extensively. The new version should be available for testing next week. Whatamidoing WMF if you would like to be notified when the new version is available. After the special character tool is completed, VisualEditor will be deployed to all users at Phase 5 Wikipedias. This will affect about 50 mid-size and smaller Wikipedias, including Afrikaans, Azerbaijani, Breton, Kyrgyz, Macedonian, Mongolian, Tatar, and Welsh. The date for this change has not been determined. Hi, this message is to let you know that, on domains like lbe. At the Wikimedia Forum, where global configuration changes are normally discussed, a few dozens users propose to restore normal editing permissions on all mobile sites. Please read and comment! Thanks and sorry for writing in English, Nemo Many other partnerships with accounts available are listed on our partners page. We invite all Wikimedians to participate. If you have an idea that could help address this problem, please get involved today! The campaign runs until March All proposals are welcome - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Sorry for the English - please translate this message! MediaWiki message delivery обсуждение Hi all,apologies for writing in English, please read this page for important information and an update involving SUL finalization , scheduled to take place in one month. Hello, I made a proposal on Meta to change the rules for the steward confirmations. Best regards, -- MF-W Citoid looks up the source for you and returns the citation results. Click the green "Insert" button to accept its results and add them to the article:. After inserting the citation, you can change it. Select the reference, and click the "Edit" button in the context menu to make changes. Status reports are posted on Mediawiki. The worklist for April through June is available in Phabricator. The weekly task triage meetings continue to be open to volunteers, each Wednesday at You do not need to attend the meeting to nominate a bug for consideration as a Q4 blocker. Learn how to join the meetings and how to nominate bugs at mw: VisualEditor is now substantially faster. In many cases, opening the page in VisualEditor is now faster than opening it in the wikitext editor. The Editing team is slowly adding auto-fill features for citations. This is currently available only at the French, Italian, and English Wikipedias. Support for ISBNs , PMIDs , and other identifiers is planned. Citoid requires good TemplateData for your citation templates. If you would like to request this feature for your wiki, please post a request in the Citoid project on Phabricator. Include links to the TemplateData for the most important citation templates on your wiki. The special character inserter has been improved, based upon feedback from active users. After this, VisualEditor was made available to all users of Wikipedias on the Phase 5 list on 30 March. This affected 53 mid-size and smaller Wikipedias, including Afrikaans , Azerbaijani , Breton , Kyrgyz , Macedonian , Mongolian , Tatar , and Welsh. Work continues to support languages with complex requirements, such as Korean and Japanese. Recent improvements to cursoring, backspace, and delete behavior will simplify typing in VisualEditor for these users. The design for the image selection process is now using a "masonry fit" model. Images in the search results are displayed at the same height but at variable widths, similar to bricks of different sizes in a masonry wall, or the "packed" mode in image galleries. This style helps you find the right image by making it easier to see more details in images. The pop-up window that appears when you click on a reference, image, link, or other element, is called the "context menu". The team has also added an explicit "Edit" button in the context menu, which helps new editors open the tool to change the item. Invisible templates are marked by a puzzle piece icon so they can be interacted with. Users also will be able to see and edit HTML anchors now in section headings. The special character inserter in VisualEditor will soon use the same special character list as the wikitext editor. Admins at each wiki will also have the option of creating a custom section for frequently used characters at the top of the list. Instructions for customizing the list will be posted at mediawiki. The team is discussing a test of VisualEditor with new users at the English Wikipedia, to see whether they have met their goals of making VisualEditor suitable for those editors. The timing is unknown, but might be relatively soon. Subscribe, unsubscribe or change the page where this newsletter is delivered at Meta.

Sorry for English, I hope someone translates this. Pywikibot then "Pywikipediabot" was started back in In a new branch formerly known as "rewrite", now called "core" was started from scratch using the MediaWiki API. The developers of Pywikibot have decided to stop supporting the compat version of Pywikibot due to bad performance and architectural errors that make it hard to update, compared to core. If you are using pywikibot compat it is likely your code will break due to upcoming MediaWiki API changes e. It is highly recommended you migrate to the core framework. There is a migration guide , and please contact us if you have any problem. There is an upcoming MediaWiki API breaking change that compat will not be updated for. There are separate tabs for linking to internal and external pages. Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has created new interfaces for the link and citation tools and fixed many bugs and changed some elements of the design. Some of these bugs affected users of VisualEditor on mobile devices. During this test, half of newly registered editors had VisualEditor automatically enabled, and half did not. The main goal of the study is to learn which group was more likely to save an edit and to make productive, unreverted edits. Initial results will be posted at Meta later this month. Auto-fill features for citations are available at a few Wikipedias through the citoid service. Citoid takes a URL or DOI for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. If Citoid is enabled on your wiki, then the design of the citation workflow changed during May. All citations are now created inside a single tool. The link tool has been redesigned based on feedback from Wikipedia editors and user testing. It now has two separate sections: Search results have been reduced to the first five pages. Several bugs were fixed, including a dark highlight that appeared over the first match in the link inspector. The special character inserter in VisualEditor now uses the same special character list as the wikitext editor. Admins at each wiki can also create a custom section for frequently used characters at the top of the list. Please read the instructions for customizing the list at mediawiki. Also, there is now a tooltip to describing each character in the special character inserter. Several improvements have been made to templates. When you search for a template to insert, the list of results now contains descriptions of the templates. T The team added a new property for TemplateData , "Пример", for template parameters. This optional, translatable property will show up when there is text describing how to use that parameter. The design of the main toolbar and several other elements have changed slightly, to be consistent with the MediaWiki theme. In the Vector skin, individual items in the menu are separated visually by pale gray bars. Buttons and menus on the toolbar can now contain both an icon and a text label, rather than just one or the other. This new design feature is being used for the cite button on wikis where the Citoid service is enabled. The team has released a long-desired improvement to the handling of non-existent images. If a non-existent image is linked in an article, then it is now visible in VisualEditor and can be selected, edited, replaced, or removed. Инструмент перевода Content Translation был включен как бета-функция в Лакской Википедии. Так как мы включаем этот инструмент в вашей википедии впервые, возможно, что здесь есть неисправности, о которых мы ещё не знаем. Мы следим за использованием инструмента, но мы просим и вас сообщать нам о любых неисправностях через страницу обсуждения проекта можно по-русски или через Фабрикатор. Дополнительная информация доступна в инструкции. Кроме этого, вы можете посмотреть клип об использовании инструмента. Hello, Content Translation has now been enabled as an opt-in beta feature on the Lak Wikipedia. Since this is the first time we have installed the tool on this Wikipedia, there are chances that there may be some problems or service disruptions which we are not yet aware of. We will be monitoring the usage to check for any failures or issues, but please do let us know on the Content Translation talk page or through Phabricator if you spot any problems that prevent you from using the tool. For more information, please read the information available in the User Guide. You can also view a short screencast on how to use Content Translation. Many other partnerships with accounts available are listed on our partners page , including an expansion of accounts for Royal Society journals and remaining accounts on Project MUSE , JSTOR , DeGruyter , Highbeam Newspapers. If you have suggestions for journals or databases we should seek access to make a request! Over the last few years, the Wikimedia Foundation has been working towards enabling HTTPS by default for all users, including unregistered ones, for better privacy and security for both readers and editors. This has taken a long time, as there were different aspects to take into account. The Wikimedia Foundation has had to balance sometimes conflicting goals. Forced HTTPS has just been implemented on all Wikimedia projects. Some of you might already be aware of this, as a few Wikipedia language versions were converted to HTTPS last week and the then affected communities were notified. Do get in touch with us if you have any problems after this change or contact me if you have any other questions. There is a proposal at the Commons Village Pump requesting feedback about the thumbnails of static GIF images: It states that static GIF files should have their thumbnails created in PNG. The advantages of PNG over GIF would be visible especially with GIF images using an alpha channel. Hi, The Community Engagement department at the Wikimedia Foundation has launched a new learning campaign. The WMF wants to record community impressions about what makes a healthy online community. Join the WMF as we begin a conversation about Community Health. The world is changing. The way we relate to knowledge is transforming. As the next billion people come online, the Wikimedia movement is working to bring more users on the wiki projects. The way we interact and collaborate online are key to building sustainable projects. How accessible are Wikimedia projects to newcomers today? Are we helping each other learn? Share your views on this matter that affects us all! We invite everyone to take part in this learning campaign. Wikimedia Foundation will distribute one Wikimania Scholarship among those participants who are eligible. When using data from Wikidata on Wikipedia and other sister projects, there is currently a limitation in place that hinders some use cases: So, for example, the Wikipedia article about Berlin can only get data from the Wikidata item about Berlin but not from the item about Germany. This had technical reasons. We are now removing this limitation. It is already done for many projects. Your project is one of the next ones. We will roll out this feature here on August We invite you to play around with this new feature if you are one of the people who have been waiting for this for a long time. Contact the development team. A note of caution: Please be careful with how many items you use for a single page. If it is too many pages, loading might get slow. We will have to see how the feature behaves in production to see where we need to tweak and how. Cheers Lydia Pintscher MediaWiki message delivery обсуждение As I have previously announced here we have now enabled the arbitrary access feature here. This means from now on you can make use of data from any Wikidata item in any article here. Before you could for example only access data about Berlin in the article about Berlin. If you want to find out more or have questions please come to d: I hope this will open up great possibilities for you and make your work easier. Cheers Lydia Pintscher WMDE Select the relevant text. VisualEditor will add the quotation marks on either side of the text you selected. You can read and help translate the user guide , which has more information about how to use VisualEditor. Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team have been working on mobile phone support. They have fixed many bugs and improved language support. They post weekly status reports on mediawiki. Their workboard is available in Phabricator. Their current priorities are improving language support and functionality on mobile devices.
