Hello, Sorry for English but It's very important for bot operators so I hope someone translates this. Pywikipedia is migrating to Git so after July 26, SVN checkouts won't be updated If you're using Pywikipedia you have to switch to git, otherwise you will use out-dated framework and your bot might not work properly. 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:Manual talk:Pywikipediabot/Gerrit, mailing list, or in the IRC channel. Best Amir (via Global message delivery). 23. jul 2013, 13:04 (UTC)

Greetings. 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:HTTPS.

If HTTPS causes problems for you, tell us on bugzilla, on IRC (in the #wikimedia-operations channel) or on meta. If you can't use the other methods, you can also send an e-mail to [email protected].

First, I’d like to apologize for the English. If you can, please help to translate this for other members of your community.

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. Accordingly, they have created a “request for consultation” on Meta where they set out briefly some of the issues to be considered and the options that they perceive. Your input would be invaluable in helping guide them in how best to serve our mission.

Thank you! --Mdennis (talk) (via the Global message delivery system). 24. sep 2013, 02:14 (UTC) (wrong page? You can fix it.)

Greetings!

Notifications will inform users about new activity that affects them on this wiki in a unified way: for example, this new tool will let you know when you have new talk page messages, edit reverts, mentions or links -- and is designed to augment (rather than replace) the watchlist. The Wikimedia Foundation's editor engagement team developed this tool (code-named 'Echo') earlier this year, to help users contribute more productively to MediaWiki projects.

We're now getting ready to bring Notifications to almost all other Wikimedia sites, and are aiming for a 22 October deployment, as outlined in this release plan. It is important that notifications is translated for all of the languages we serve.

There are three major points of translation needed to be either done or checked:

• Echo on translatewiki for user interface - you must have an account on translatewiki to translate
• Thanks on translatewiki for user interface - you must have an account on translatewiki to translate
• Notifications help on mediawiki.org. This page can be hosted after translation on mediawiki.org or we can localize it to this Wikipedia. You do not have to have an account to translate on mediawiki, but single-user login will create it for you there if you follow the link.

• Checklist

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. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 4. okt 2013, 18:23 (UTC)

The Wikimedia Foundation's multimedia team seeks community guidance on a proposal to support the MP4 video format. 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.264/MPEG-4 or AVC.

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. Our Request for Comments presents views both in favor and against MP4 support, based on opinions we’ve heard in our discussions with community and team members.

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.

You are also welcome to join tomorrow's Office hours chat on IRC, this Thursday, January 16, at 19:00 UTC, if you would like to discuss this project with our team and other community members.

We look forward to a constructive discussion with you, so we can make a more informed decision together on this important topic. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 16. jan 2014, 06:47 (UTC)

Hello. A new policy regarding the removal of "advanced rights" (administrator, bureaucrat, etc) was recently adopted by global community consensus (your community received a notice about the discussion). According to this policy, the stewards are reviewing administrators' activity on smaller wikis. To the best of our knowledge, your wiki does not have a formal process for removing "advanced rights" from inactive accounts. This means that the stewards will take care of this according to the new admin activity review here.

We have determined that the following users meet the inactivity criteria (no edits and no log actions for more than 2 years):

1. Lhademmor (administrator)
2. Maitch (administrator)

These users will receive a notification soon, asking them to start a community discussion if they want to retain some or all of their rights. If the users do not respond, then their advanced rights will be removed by the stewards.

However, if you as a community would like to create your own activity review process superseding the global one, want to make another decision about these inactive rights holders, or already have a policy that we missed, then please notify the stewards on Meta-Wiki so that we know not to proceed with the rights review on your wiki. Thanks, Rschen7754 6. apr 2014, 01:12 (UTC)

Dear Wiktionary community!

About me

My name is Rainer Rillke, and I have been volunteering at Wikimedia Commons for 3 years now, gathering experience around media files. I've been always interested in how things work and how one could improve them.

The idea

One idea that appeared last Summer was allowing the recording of small chunks of speech, uploading that to Wikimedia Commons in the background and including this into a Wiktionary entry without having the hassle doing everything by hand or installing additional software. That idea led to the foundation of MediaWiki extension PronunciationRecording during the Google Summer of Code. However, this was not completed; instead development is stale for over 5 months now.

My proposal

To make this going to work, so Wiktionary has an immediate benefit of this feature, I would like to provide the work done so far as a gadget and add some more work in regard to usability. You can see my plan at m:Grants:IEG/Finish Pronunciation Recording. And more importantly, you can give me a hand, if you are interested by writing your comments.

Thanks and kind regards --Rillke (diskussion) 7. apr 2014, 17:25 (UTC)

The Wikimedia Foundation's Multimedia team is happy to announce that Media Viewer was just released on this site today.

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.org in any language, to help improve this feature. You are also welcome to take this quick survey in English, en français, o español.

We hope you enjoy Media Viewer. Many thanks to all the community members who helped make it possible. - Fabrice Florin (WMF) (talk) 19. jun 2014, 21:54 (UTC)

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: to protect the deployment of the Media Viewer software on German Wikipedia, in defiance of a clear decision of that community to disable the feature by default, unless users decide to enable it.

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.org.

This March, we’re organizing an Inspire Campaign to encourage and support new ideas for improving gender diversity on Wikimedia projects. Less than 20% of Wikimedia contributors are women, and many important topics are still missing in our content. 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 31.

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. Constructive, positive feedback on ideas is appreciated, and collaboration is encouraged - your skills and experience may help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign and help this project better represent the world’s knowledge!

Hello, I made a proposal on Meta to change the rules for the steward confirmations. Currently consensus to remove is required for a steward to lose his status, however I think it's fairer to the community if every steward needed the consensus to keep. As this is an issue that affects all WMF wikis, I'm sending this notification to let people know & be able to participate. Best regards, --MF-W 10. apr 2015, 16:12 (UTC)

This is a message from the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee. Translations are available.

Greetings,

I am pleased to announce that nominations are now being accepted for the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections. This year the Board and the FDC Staff are looking for a diverse set of candidates from regions and projects that are traditionally under-represented on the board and in the movement as well as candidates with experience in technology, product or finance. To this end they have published letters describing what they think is needed and, recognizing that those who know the community the best are the community themselves, the election committee is accepting nominations for community members you think should run and will reach out to those nominated to provide them with information about the job and the election process.

This year, elections are being held for the following roles:

Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long term sustainability of the Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. There are three positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the board elections page.

Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)
The Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) makes recommendations about how to allocate Wikimedia movement funds to eligible entities. There are five positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC elections page.

Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) Ombud
The FDC Ombud receives complaints and feedback about the FDC process, investigates complaints at the request of the Board of Trustees, and summarizes the investigations and feedback for the Board of Trustees on an annual basis. One position is being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC Ombudsperson elections page.

The candidacy submission phase lasts from 00:00 UTC April 20 to 23:59 UTC May 5 for the Board and from 00:00 UTCApril 20 to 23:59 UTC April 30 for the FDC and FDC Ombudsperson. This year, we are accepting both self-nominations and nominations of others. More information on this election and the nomination process can be found on the 2015 Wikimedia elections page on Meta-Wiki.

Please feel free to post a note about the election on your project's village pump. Any questions related to the election can be posted on the talk page on Meta, or sent to the election committee's mailing list, board-elections -at- wikimedia.org

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. (compare the thumbnails on the side)

This is a message regarding the proposed 2015 Free Bassel banner. Translations are available.

Hi everyone,

This is to inform all Wikimedia contributors that a straw poll seeking your involvement has just been started on Meta-Wiki.

As some of your might be aware, a small group of Wikimedia volunteers have proposed a banner campaign informing Wikipedia readers about the urgent situation of our fellow Wikipedian, open source software developer and Creative Commons activist, Bassel Khartabil. An exemplary banner and an explanatory page have now been prepared, and translated into about half a dozen languages by volunteer translators.

We are seeking your involvement to decide if the global Wikimedia community approves starting a banner campaign asking Wikipedia readers to call on the Syrian government to release Bassel from prison. We understand that a campaign like this would be unprecedented in Wikipedia's history, which is why we're seeking the widest possible consensus among the community.

Given Bassel's urgent situation and the resulting tight schedule, we ask everyone to get involved with the poll and the discussion to the widest possible extent, and to promote it among your communities as soon as possible.

(Apologies for writing in English; please kindly translate this message into your own language.)

Thank you for your participation!

As many of you know, January 15 is Wikipedia’s 15th Birthday!

People around the world are getting involved in the celebration and have started adding their events on Meta Page. While we are celebrating Wikipedia's birthday, we hope that all projects and affiliates will be able to utilize this celebration to raise awareness of our community's efforts.

Haven’t started planning? Don’t worry, there’s lots of ways to get involved. Here are some ideas:

• Join/host an event. We already have more than 80, and hope to have many more.
• Talk to local press. In the past 15 years, Wikipedia has accomplished extraordinary things. We’ve made a handy summary of milestones and encourage you to add your own. More resources, including a press release template and resources on working with the media, are also available.
• Design a Wikipedia 15 logo. In place of a single icon for Wikipedia 15, we’re making dozens. Add your own with something fun and representative of your community. Just use the visual guide so they share a common sensibility.
• Share a message on social media. Tell the world what Wikipedia means to you, and add #wikipedia15 to the post. We might re-tweet or share your message!

Everything is linked on the Wikipedia 15 Meta page. You’ll find a set of ten data visualization works that you can show at your events, and a list of all the Wikipedia 15 logos that community members have already designed.

If you have any questions, please contact Zachary McCune or Joe Sutherland.

Thanks and Happy nearly Wikipedia 15!

Hej,

Vi har indledt en RFC på meta om at øge adgangskravene for brugere, som har konti, hvorfra de kan redigere i MediaWiki:Common.js, som har adgang til checkuser, eller som har adgang til Oversight.

Disse typer af konti er følsomme, hvad angår adgang til vore netsteder. og kan forårsage virkelig skade, hvis de falder i ondsindede hænder. For tiden er det eneste krav, at kodeordet er mindst 1 bogstav langt. Vi vil gerne ændre det til et minimum på 8 bogstaver (bytes) og samtidig forbyde nogle virkeligt almindelige kodeord.

Ved at forøge kravene til kodeord for konti med adgang på højt niveau håber vi at gøre wikimedias wiki'er mere sikre for alle. Læs venligst hele forslagsteksten her, og giv din mening til kende på denne RFC

Tak,

Hello, all.

The Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) has launched a consultation to help create and prioritize WMF strategy beginning July 2016 and for the 12 to 24 months thereafter. This consultation will be open, on Meta, from 18 January to 26 February, after which the Foundation will also use these ideas to help inform its Annual Plan. (More on our timeline can be found on that Meta page.)

Your input is welcome (and greatly desired) at the Meta discussion, 2016 Strategy/Community consultation.

Apologies for English, where this is posted on a non-English project. We thought it was more important to get the consultation translated as much as possible, and good headway has been made there in some languages. There is still much to do, however! We created m:2016 Strategy/Translations to try to help coordinate what needs translation and what progress is being made. :)

If you have questions, please reach out to me on my talk page or on the strategy consultation's talk page or by email to [email protected].

I hope you'll join us! Maggie Dennis via MediaWiki message delivery (diskussion) 18. jan 2016, 19:07 (UTC)

Det vil være mere læservenligt at bruge de danske betegnelser, omend vi jo også bruger fagtermer til angivelse af ordklasserne (f.eks. substantiv og verbum). Vær desuden opmærksom på, at skabelonerne for køn også bruges i oversættelsesoversigterne. Hvis der er flere oversættelser af det samme ord, kommer oversættelserne til at fylde mere, hvis der skal stå f.eks. hankøn, hunkøn, intetkøn eller fælleskøn mellem alle ordene i stedet for m, f, n eller c. Bør vi måske overveje at have en oversigt over, hvad fagtermerne betyder på dansk?

Hello, everyone at the Danish Wiktionary. @User:Tyskeren, User:Sarrus, User:HenrikKbh, User:ContraVentum, User:Gamren, and User:Olelog. I am today bringing up the issue of the page Wiktionary:Artikelanmodninger. Sorry that I can't translate this paragraph into good Danish right now. But feel free to speak Danish in this discussion, as I'll still be able to understand it; I'm just bad with grammar and picking the right word to use and such. Philmonte101 (diskussion) 6. aug 2016, 11:35 (UTC)

So anyway, I created this page on another account (RSY) a few years back. I broke a Danish rule when creating this page, I said "artikel anmodninger", which is incorrect, it's supposed to be "artikelanmodninger". I apologize for this and for not ever fixing it.

I intended for this page to be a place where you can use subpages and such to enter in an alleged entry, have a native Danish user go in and check the entry, and then you add it to the dictionary. For example, Wiktionary:Artikelanmodninger/laminectomia is a request I made for the Italian word "laminectomia". I entered text in Artikelanmodninger as if I was going to make an entry about it, and was waiting for an admin or other experienced Danish speaker to go in and check and make sure my translation of "laminectomia" to Danish was correct. Then, after that would be done, I'd enter it into the dictionary as laminectomia.

Other Wiktionaries have all sorts of different kinds of request systems I imagine. I'd rather not get rid of this one, since I like it quite a bit. But I wonder if we can make Wiktionary:Artikelanmodninger a more well-known thing here, something that's linked to in the community a lot, from other Wiktionary namespace pages.

To sum this all up, I just want to know if there's anything else we should do to this page. How can we extend it? Where can we link to it? Can we have active users have this page and subpages on their watchlist? I think a request system would be great for the Danish Wiktionary, as it is lacking in many areas, and if someone doesn't know how to add an entry for whatever reason, they can put it on the list, or make an alleged entry. So, what do you think? Philmonte101 (diskussion) 6. aug 2016, 01:09 (UTC)

Wikimedia Foundation tester sit nyeste datacenter i Dallas. Dette vil sikre, at Wikipedia og de øvrige Wikimedia-wikier fortsat vil fungere, også selvom der skulle indtræffe en katastrofe. For at forsikre sig om, at alt virker, er det nødvendigt for Wikimedias teknologiafdeling at gennemføre en planlagt test. Denne test vil vise, om de er i stand til at foretage et pålideligt skift fra ét datacenter til det andet. Det kræver mange grupper at forberede testen og at være klar til at rette eventuelle uforudsete problemer.

De vil flytte al trafik til det nye datacenter tirsdag 19. april.
Torsdag 21. april vil de skifte tilbage til det primære datacenter.

På grund af nogle begrænsninger i MediaWiki må al redigering desværre stoppe under de to flytninger. Vi undskylder for denne forstyrrelse, og vi arbejder på at minimere den slags fremover.

Du vil stadig have mulighed for at læse, men ikke redigere, alle wikier i en begrænset periode.

• Du vil ikke kunne redigere i et sted mellem 15 og 30 minutter, henholdsvis tirsdag 19. april og torsdag 21. april, med start kl. 14.00 UTC (kl. 16.00 CEST (dansk tid), kl. 10.00 EDT, kl. 7.00 PDT).
• Hvis du forsøger at redigere eller gemme rettelser i disse to perioder, vil du få en fejlmeddelelse. Vi håber, at der ikke vil gå nogle redigeringer tabt i løbet af disse minutter, men vi kan ikke garantere det. Hvis du får en sådan fejlmeddelelse, beder vi dig om at vente, til situationen er tilbage til den normale igen. Derpå skulle du være i stand til at gemme din redigering. For en sikkerheds skyld anbefaler vi dog, at du tager en kopi af dine ændringer først. /Johan (WMF) (diskussion) 17. apr 2016, 21:42 (UTC)

Hello, I wanted to give a heads up about an upcoming feature for this wiki which you may seen already in the Tech News. Compact Language Links has been available as a beta-feature on all Wikimedia wikis since 2014. With compact language links enabled, users are shown a much shorter list of languages on the interlanguage link section of an article (see image). This will be enabled as a feature in the soon for all users, which can be turned on or off using a preference setting. We look forward to your feedback and please do let us know if you have any questions. Details about Compact Language Links can be read in the project documentation.

Due to the large scale enablement of this feature, we have had to use MassMessage for this announcement and as a result it is only written in English. We will really appreciate if this message can be translated for other users of this wiki. The main announcement can also be translated on this page. Thank you.

Compact Language Links has been available as a beta-feature on all Wikimedia wikis since 2014. With compact language links enabled, users are shown a much shorter list of languages on the interlanguage link section of an article (see image). Based on several factors, this shorter list of languages is expected to be more relevant for them and valuable for finding similar content in a language known to them. More information about compact language links can be found in the documentation.

From today onwards, compact language links has been enabled as the default listing of interlanguage links on this wiki. However, using the button at the bottom, you will be able to see a longer list of all the languages the article has been written in. The setting for this compact list can be changed by using the checkbox under User Preferences -> Appearance -> Languages

The compact language links feature has been tested extensively by the Wikimedia Language team, which developed it. However, in case there are any problems or other feedback please let us know on the project talk page. It is to be noted that on some wikis the presence of an existing older gadget that was used for a similar purpose may cause an interference for compact language list. We would like to bring this to the attention of the admins of this wiki. Full details are on this phabricator ticket (in English).

Due to the large scale enablement of this feature, we have had to use MassMessage for this announcement and as a result it is only written in English.

Jeg påtænker at ændre skabelonen {{-pronun-}} (udtale), så den i stedet for at være en overskrift fire, er en overskrift tre.

Grunden er at hvis man har flere ordklasser i en artikel, eks. både et substantiv og et verbum, kommer udtalen til at stå som et underpunkt til den ene underklasse, selvom den retteligt er ens for begge ordklasser. Et eksempel kan ses her: brûlé.

-HenrikKbh (diskussion) 14. jul 2016, 06:30 (UTC)

Ingen protester herfra. Måske hører udtalen hjemme øverst i opslaget, før ordklasserne, sammen med (altså lige før eller lige efter) etymologi-afsnittet. Et problem kunne måske være, hvis udtalen afhænger af ordklassen, men det er måske aldrig tilfældet?

Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 9. aug 2016, 18:02 (UTC)

My motive is from the false entry the American dream which everyone here is unfortunately defending. I am American and I am a native English speaker; they should be listening to me rather than treating my opinion on the matter as "vandalism".

Anywho, in this example, the more common capitalization for the term is American Dream, and adding "the" beforehand just makes it a sum-of-parts term, as you can find the definition for the separately from American Dream.

Please refer to the English Wiktionary's policy on SOPs, as follows:

"An expression is idiomatic if its full meaning cannot be easily derived from the meaning of its separate components. Non-idiomatic expressions are called sum-of-parts (SOP).

For example, this is a door is not idiomatic, but shut up and red herring are."

We need official policy on this here. Let's have a vote. @User:Bedsten, @User:First jumper

Feel free to speak either Danish or English with me here, since I can read both very well, but I am going to stick with writing in English on my side since my Danish grammar is too poor and I'd be embarrassing myself most of the time. Philmonte101 (diskussion) 31. aug 2016, 11:31 (UTC)

The entry has a reference to http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/american where "the American dream" is mentioned as a phrase. Existing words and phrases should be allowed. At least if they are confirmed by a reliable source. And please remember, that this is not enwiktionary.
- Sarrus (d • b) d. 31. aug 2016, 14:07 (UTC)

The fact that it is mentioned in Oxford doesn't make it any less SOP. Do you think we should have entries like green tree that literally just mean green + tree? It is the same thing here. "the" is just a modifier in this case. In English, we don't include "the" within a proper noun or a noun. For instance, instead of saying "I'm going to The United States", we'd say "I'm going to the United States." "the" at the beginning of a term is not generally a component of a proper noun or a common noun. Therefore, it's SOP. I wouldn't mind a redirect from the American Dream to American Dream, but I'd like to keep American Dream as the lemma form.

Anyway, enough about that entry. My point in this discussion is that we at dawiktionary need an official policy guideline about multiple-worded entries being sums of parts. We simply can't include things like green tree, Danish king, American worker, etc., unless they have some idiomatic meaning besides green + tree, Danish + king, etc. Philmonte101 (diskussion) 31. aug 2016, 20:24 (UTC)

Bruger:Kinamand, okay, I've moved it. Philmonte101 (diskussion) 2. sep 2016, 00:24 (UTC)

User:Bedsten, why do you think this is "not necessary" to include? The fact is that, if the entire Wiktionary project (yes, in all the languages) is still running and popular for at least another 40 years, which I see as pretty likely, then the Danish Wiktionary will one day, but very slowly, be in the millions as far as our entry count goes, especially since there may be more Danish users interested in participating as time goes by. So let's just say, for the sake of argument, that 10 years from now, instead of about 8 come-and-go users here, there will be 20 or more active and daily users in the Danish Wiktionary.

Now, as you all know, Danish is a Germanic language, which means virtually any combination of two common nouns is always a compound, unlike English, which usually represents two nouns put together with two words, deeming that term SOP. For example, filmproduktion is synonymous in English to film production (though also to filmmaking). mellemkrigsår literally means interwar year in English. brugerdiskussionside literally means user talk page. filmskole just means film school. substantivform just means noun form. bøjningsform just means inflected form. I could name countless more. But, my point is, most one-word entries, regardless of whether it's a compound or an inflected form or whatnot, should always be included as long as it is attestable with 3 durably archived citations. This means that, as painstaking as it can be, all these Danish compounds should, theoretically, eventually be here on dawiktionary. However, when we have more of these noun compounds, there will be some Danish user in an estimated ten years, let's just say for the sake of argument, with less knowledge about English or linguistics or whatever than they should, who starts adding countless SOP terms, such as noun form (noun + form), inflected form (inflected + form), user talk page (user + talk page ), interwar year (interwar + year), film school (film + school), film production (film + production), health code violation (health + code + violation), wiki vandalism (wiki + vandalism). I could literally spend the rest of my life's time naming countless more two-worded or three-worded terms like these, that, under the current lack of policy, could potentially be created. So, do you really think this is a good thing? Heck, I'd probably leave the (Danish) project if I couldn't get all those deleted after their creation by some user who does this. So, why not just instate a policy here about idiomacity while we still can, before some massive attack like that happens. Philmonte101 (diskussion) 2. sep 2016, 00:24 (UTC)

Jeg ser ingen problemer i at have opslag om filmproduktion og mellemkrigsår, som du nævner. Har der været et reelt problem med dette på enwiktionary, eller er det et potentielt problem, som man tager højde for på forhånd? Hvis der oprettes opslag som f.eks. sur mand, bør den nok (hvis den ønskes slettet) en tur rundt om Wiktionary:Sider der bør slettes, før den evt. slettes og ikke slettes on sight.

The purpose of policy is to preserve peace. Here there is no discord because of "SOP"s.  No, we don't need official policy. First jumper (diskussion) 5. sep 2016, 04:06 (UTC)

 Nej, jeg ser heller ikke nogen grund til at indføre den foreslåede regel. Kinamand (diskussion) 5. sep 2016, 11:03 (UTC)

@ User:First jumper So are you saying that if someone creates film school, wiki vandalism, green tree, brown leaf, health code violation, and many more similar entries, that there would still be "no discord"? And what if the same user continued making these entries for months? PseudoSkull (diskussion) 5. sep 2016, 13:59 (UTC)

Hello all,

Sorry for writing this message in English, please feel free to translate it in your own language below.

The Wikidata development team will start working on integrating lexicographical data in the knowledge base soon and we want to make sure we do this together with you.

Wikidata is a constantly evolving project and after four years of existence, we start with implementing support for Wiktionary editors and content, by allowing you to store and improve lexicographical data, in addition to the concepts already maintained by thousands of editors on Wikidata.

We have been working on this idea for almost three years and improving it with a lot of inputs from community members to understand Wiktionary processes.

Starting this project, we hope that the editors will be able to collaborate across Wiktionaries more easily. We expect to increase the number of editors and visibility of languages, and we want to provide the groundwork for new tools for editors.

Our development plan contains several phases in order to build the structure to include lexicographical data:

• creating automatic interwiki links on Wiktionary,
• creating new entity types for lexemes, senses, and forms on Wikidata,
• providing data access to Wikidata from Wiktionary
• improving the display of lexicographical information on Wikidata.

During the next months, we will do our best to provide you the technical structure to store lexicographical data on Wikidata and use it on Wiktionary. Don’t hesitate to discuss this within your local community, and give us feedback about your needs and the particularities of your languages.

Information about supporting lexicographical entities on Wikidata is available on this page. You can find an overview of the project, the detail of the development plan, answers to frequently asked questions, and a list of people ready to help us. If you want to have general discussions and questions about the project, please use the general talk page, as we won’t be able to follow all the talk pages on Wiktionaries. If you don’t feel comfortable with English, you can write in your own language and hopefully someone will volunteer to translate.

Bests regards, Lea Lacroix (WMDE) (talk)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

On behalf of the Election Committee,

Hello all,

(I'm sorry to write in English, feel free to translate in your own language below)

From April 24th, a new interlanguage link system will be deployed on all Wiktionaries. This extension, Cognate, automatically links the pages with the same title between the Wiktionaries. This means they no longer have to be added in the pages of the main namespace.

This new feature has been developed by Wikimedia Deutschland as the first step of the project Wikidata for Wiktionary, but does not rely on Wikidata.

To allow the feature to operate, all the former interlanguage links have to be removed from the wikitext. You can do this by using a bot, as it was done on Wikipedia in the past. If you leave them in they will overwrite the automatic links.

During the development we had a lot of discussions with Wiktionary editors to understand their needs, but it's possible that some automatic links don't work as you would expect. If you find some bugs or have suggestions for improvements, feel free to add a sub-task on Phabricator or add a message on this talk page.

Thanks, Lea Lacroix (WMDE) (talk)

Jeg tror at der vil være globale botter som vil tilbyde at fjerne sproglinkene til sider med samme titel på alle Wiktionaryer når ændringen træder i kraft den 24. april. Hvis det mod forventning ikke sker, kan Bruger:Dipsacus fullonum bot gøre det hvis den får botflag her. Giv mig et ping hvis det det bliver aktuelt. Mvh. Dipsacus fullonum (diskussion) 13. apr 2017, 11:29 (UTC)

Bemærk, at der står To allow the feature to operate, all the former interlanguage links have to be removed from the wikitext. You can do this by using a bot, as it was done on Wikipedia in the past. If you leave them in they will overwrite the automatic links - det får det til at se ud til, at de ikke har tænkt sig at gøre det, men lad os bare se tiden an. Hvis du skal have botflag her på Wiktionary, skal du først anmode på Wiktionary:Administratorer#Robotter og dernæst på m:Steward requests/Bot status, eftersom der ingen bureakrater er her på stedet.

@Dipsacus fullonum Det virker vist fint på nye sider (selvom man nogle gange må foretage en null edit), men der er ikke nogen der har fjernet de gamle links. Hvis du gider?__Gamren (diskussion) 28. apr 2017, 09:27 (UTC)

OK, jeg vil så fjerne sproglinks fra ordbogsartiklerne. Jeg er væk i weekenden, så det kan først blive i næste uge. Mvh. Dipsacus fullonum (diskussion) 28. apr 2017, 09:48 (UTC)

@Sarrus, @Gamren: Botten er klar og har foretaget 10 testredigeringer. Jeg beder andre brugere om at angive på Wiktionary:Administratorer#User:Dipsacus fullonum bot om de synes at botten skal have botflag, så jeg kan påvise en evt. konsensus ved ansøgning om dette på Meta. Mvh. Dipsacus fullonum (diskussion) 29. apr 2017, 11:18 (UTC)

Min bot har nu fjernet samtlige sproghenvisninger i hovednavnerummet. Det tog næsten 4 døgns kørsel med botten at komme gennem alle opslagsord. Hvis der bliver behov for andre botopgaver, er I velkomne til at kontakte mig igen. Mvh. Dipsacus fullonum (diskussion) 4. maj 2017, 19:30 (UTC)

Message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki

The Wikimedia movement strategy core team and working groups have completed reviewing the more than 1800 thematic statements we received from the first discussion. They have identified 5 themes that were consistent across all the conversations - each with their own set of sub-themes. These are not the final themes, just an initial working draft of the core concepts.

You are invited to join the online and offline discussions taking place on these 5 themes. This round of discussions will take place between now and June 12th. You can discuss as many as you like; we ask you to participate in the ones that are most (or least) important to you.

Here are the five themes, each has a page on Meta-Wiki with more information about the theme and how to participate in that theme's discussion:

• Healthy, Inclusive Communities
• The Augmented Age
• A Truly Global Movement
• The Most Respected Source of Knowledge
• Engaging in the Knowledge Ecosystem

On the movement strategy portal on Meta-Wiki, you can find more information about each of these themes, their discussions, and how to participate.

Hello,

I’m sorry to write this message in English. Please help us translating the full message here!

Short version: Since yesterday, we are able to store the interwiki links of all the Wiktionaries namespaces (except main, citations, user and talk) in Wikidata. This will not break your Wiktionary, but if you want to use all the features, you will have to remove your sitelinks from wikitext and connect your pages to Wikidata.

Important: even if it is technically possible, you should not link Wiktionary main namespace pages from Wikidata. The interwiki links for them are already provided by Cognate.

Long version available and translatable here.

If you encounter any problem or find a bug, feel free to ping me.

Thanks, MediaWiki message delivery (diskussion) 21. jun 2017, 08:28 (UTC)

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 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 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 the documentation (please help us translating it in your language!). The interface of the tool itself can also be translated in other languages by using this page.

If you find a bug, please let a comment on this Phabricator task or ping me onwiki. Thanks a lot, Lea Lacroix (WMDE) 14. aug 2018, 13:08 (UTC)

Ændringer i forhold til hvordan enkelte skabeloner ser ud på mobil web på vej

Hjælp venligst med at oversætte til dit sprog

Goddag,

Om nogle få uger vil læser web teamet ændre på måden som nogle skabeloner ser ud på mobil webstedet. Vi vil gøre disse skabeloner mere tydelige når en artikel læses. Vi beder om jeres hjælp i forhold til at forbedre enhver skabelon der ikke ser ud som den burde.

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

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

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

Tak!
