Selection of the Tremendous Wiktionary User Group representative to the Wikimedia Summit 2019

Dear all,

Sorry for posting this message in English and last minute notification. The Tremendous Wiktionary User Group could send one representative to the Wikimedia Summit 2019 (formerly "Wikimedia Conference"). The Wikimedia Summit is an yearly conference of all organizations affiliated to the Wikimedia Movement (including our Tremendous Wiktionary User Group). It is a great place to talk about Wiktionary needs to the chapters and other user groups that compose the Wikimedia movement.

For context, there is a short report on what happened last year. The deadline is very close to 24 hrs. The last date for registration is 17 December 2018. As a last minute effort, there is a page on meta to decide who will be the representative of the user group to the Wikimedia Summit created.

Please feel free to ask any question on the wiktionary-l mailing list or on the talk page.

For the Tremendous Wiktionary User Group, -- Balajijagadesh 16. dec 2018, 05:56 (UTC)

Wikimedia Foundation Medium-Term Plan feedback request

Hjælp venligst med at oversætte til dit sprog

The Wikimedia Foundation has published a Medium-Term Plan proposal covering the next 3–5 years. We want your feedback! Please leave all comments and questions, in any language, on the talk page, by April 20. Tak! Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 12. apr 2019, 17:35 (UTC)

Input ang. affiliate-udvalgte bestyrelsesmedlemmer 2019

Wikimedia Foundation, organisationen der står for driften af Wikipedia og Wikipedias søsterprojekter, og som Wikimedia Danmark er et "chapter" af, ledes af en bestyrelse på 10 personer. Fem af disse personer vælges af Wikimedia-bevægelsen, enten gennem direkte valg (3 personer) eller af Wikimedia affiliate-organisationer (2 personer). Begge typer positioner vælges hvert tredje år, dog forskudt med et år.

I 2019 skal affiliate-organisationerne vælge to personer til bestyrelsen. Fra den 15. til 30. april stiller kandiaterne op på meta-wiki, hvor man også kan stille dem spørgsmål. En kandidat skal være godkendt (endorsed) af 2 affiliate-organisationer for at kunne stille op. Fra den 1. til 7. maj "låses" listen over kandidater, og fællesskabet kan granske dem nærmere. Fra den 8. til 31. maj kan affiliate-organisationerne stemme på de kandidater, de ønsker skal sidde i bestyrelsen. Afstemningen anvender rangorden-systemet (single transferable vote)

Wikimedia Danmark er som chapter berettiget til at deltage i processen. Beslutningen om godkendelse (endorsement) af kandidater og hvem der stemmes på, træffes af bestyrelsen, men vi hører meget gerne fra medlemmer af foreningen samt fra det danske Wikimedia-miljø, hvis der er bestemte kandidater som man mener vi bør godkende eller stemme på. Skriv her eller på WikimediaDK-diskussionslisten med forslag. -- InsaneHacker (diskussion) 19. apr 2019, 13:22 (UTC)


WMDK-legater til Wikimania 2019

Fra den 14. til den 18. august 2019 afvikles Wikimania-konferencen i Stockholm. Konferencen er en samling af alle interessenter i Wikimedia-bevægelsen, og årets tema er Stronger Together: Wikimedia, Free Knowledge and the Sustainable Development Goals, en anskuelse af Wikimedia-bevægelsen ud fra FN's verdensmål.

Wikimedia Danmark agter at stille 3 legater af 2000 kr. til rådighed, hvilket er nok til at dække registreringsomkostningerne for hovedkonferencen d. 16.-18. august (midlerne må dog også gerne anvendes til deltagelse i konferencens "pre-days" d. 14.-15. august), samt en del af rejseomkostningerne. Legaterne er tiltænkt personer der er aktive i det danske Wikimedia-miljø. Modtagere vil skulle forpligte sig til at anvende midlerne til deltagelse i Wikimania-konferencen, og at dokumentere denne anvendelse af midlerne. Personer der allerede har tilmeldt sig konferencen kan også ansøge med henblik på at få dækket nogle af omkostningerne.

Interesserede bedes sende en email til bestyrelse@wikimedia.dk med en kort beskrivelse af dem selv og deres tilknytning til det danske Wikimedia-miljø senest den 10. juni. Ansøgere til legaterne indvilliger i, at oplyse deres identitet og andre relevante informationer. De, der bliver valgt, vil blive kontaktet senest den 15. juni med henblik på at fastlægge det praktiske.

Update on the consultation about office actions

Hello all,

Last month, the Wikimedia Foundation's Trust & Safety team announced a future consultation about partial and/or temporary office actions. We want to let you know that the draft version of this consultation has now been posted on Meta.

This is a draft. It is not intended to be the consultation itself, which will be posted on Meta likely in early September. Please do not treat this draft as a consultation. Instead, we ask your assistance in forming the final language for the consultation.

For that end, we would like your input over the next couple of weeks about what questions the consultation should ask about partial and temporary Foundation office action bans and how it should be formatted. Please post it on the draft talk page. Our goal is to provide space for the community to discuss all the aspects of these office actions that need to be discussed, and we want to ensure with your feedback that the consultation is presented in the best way to encourage frank and constructive conversation.

Please visit the consultation draft on Meta-wiki and leave your comments on the draft’s talk page about what the consultation should look like and what questions it should ask.

Thank you for your input! -- The Trust & Safety team 16. aug 2019, 08:03 (UTC)

Forbedring af skabeloner

Hej, jeg har begyndt at deltage mere på en:wiktionary og jeg kan rigtig godt li' deres oversættelsesskablon som tydeligt angiver oversættelser og muliggør let at tilføje nye. Er det nogen som ved hvordan vi får en lignende sådan her på da:wiktionary?

Ligeledes ønsker jeg en oversyn af vores brug af skabeloner sådan at det er lettere at ændre i ordbogen når man kommer fx fra en:wiktionary. Er der nogen imod at vi anpasser vores skabeloner og sider sådan at de følger en:wiktionary? (det bliver lettere for alle om wiktionary på tværs af sprog har en nogenlunde lignende struktur på siderne)

Jeg ser at de er kommet længere med dette på sv:wiktionary hvor de fx har gjort sig af med {{-decl-}} {{-rel-}} {{-ref-}} og lignende og erstattet dem med rigtige overskrifter.--So9q (diskussion) 26. aug 2019, 13:20 (UTC)

Hej @So9q,
  1. hvad angår oversættelsesskabelon kan du bruge samme syntaks som på engelsk, som på bruttotonnage. Eksisterende artikler angiver som regel navnet på sproget vha. skabeloner som {{en}} og {{de}}, men alle disse skabeloner er noget rodede. Nuværende funktion er det samme, men med lille begyndelsesbogstav (koden er her, den relevante linje er text: 'Skabelon:' + lang code + '', og man skal være sysop for at ændre det). Jeg burde kunne lave et modul der tager en sprogkode og giver et sprognavn. Udover en admin skal vi bruge en botejer til at rette eksisterende artikler, når vi har fået fastlagt præcs hvad vi vil have. Vi talte tidligere om det her.
  2. Mht. overskriftsskabeloner: Jeg ville også foretrække manuelle overskrifter. En ulempe ved overskrlanlang codeiftsskabelonerne er, man ikke kan redigere enkelte sektioner. Jeg opdagede, at hvis man sletter i skabelonkoden (for alle skabeloner der bruges på en bestemt side, hvis jeg husker ret), så vil redigérlinket på artiklen føre til skabelonsiden, og ikke artiklen. Overskriftsskabeloner er dog også ansvarlige for kategorisering, så deres afskaffelse forudsætter indførelse af anden metode. F.eks. noget tilsvarende {{head}} (som jeg oprettede i imitation af den vi bruger på en.wikt).
  3. I det hele taget er færre skabeloner og mere centralisering mere overskueligt, og lettere at ændre på.__Gamren (diskussion) 26. aug 2019, 15:28 (UTC)

Hej Gamren :) Tak for det udførlige svar. Det lyder som vi tænker i de samme baner. I øvrigt savner jeg den værktøjskasse med links som findes i bunden af redigeringsvinduet på en:- og sv:wiktionary.

Har du noget forslag til næste skridt fremad?--So9q (diskussion) 28. aug 2019, 10:33 (UTC)

Jeg er helt enige i jeres tanker og kender desværre ikke løsningen. Så vidt jeg husker fra sidst jeg kiggede på det kom jeg frem til at man skulle lave nogle moduler i programmeringssproget lua for at kunne lave de smarte skabeloner de bruge på en.wiktionary. Kinamand (diskussion) 29. aug 2019, 12:22 (UTC)
Jeg har lavet Modul:lang og Modul:lang/data (se kommentarer indledt med "--"), baseret på skabelonerne i Kategori:Wiktionary:Sprogforkortelser. I den sammenhæng faldt jeg over nogle fejl og mangler, bl.a. sprog med mere end en kode (se Kategori:Sider der er foreslået slettet hurtigt), sprog der ikke havde noget navn overhovedet (kky og zai) og sprog med mere end et navn (dsb/nedersorbisk vs. lsb/nedresorbisk).
syreregn bruger et format lignende det på en.wikt. {{head}} har den samme basale funktion som dens navnebror på en.wikt. Er det tilfredsstillende?__Gamren (diskussion) 29. aug 2019, 14:02 (UTC)
Bruger:Kinamand, Kan du fortælle mig mere præcist hvilke skabeloner eller hvilken funktionalitet fra en.wikt du mener vi bør have her?__Gamren (diskussion) 29. aug 2019, 14:13 (UTC)
Fx {{character info/new}} Kinamand (diskussion) 29. aug 2019, 19:47 (UTC)
syreregn ser godt ud @Gamren. Jeg har netop importeret Skabelon:ping og Skabelon:svar_til men sidstnævnte savner dette modul: https://en.wiktionary.orghttps://dictious.com/da/Module:ping_user kan du importere det?--So9q (diskussion) 30. aug 2019, 08:09 (UTC)


Roboterstatning af overskrifter

Hej, ad samtalen oven har jeg følgende udkast til masseerstatning af overskrifter:

  1. {{=da=}} -> == Dansk ==
  2. {{=sv=}} -> == Svensk ==
  3. {{=ru=}} -> == Russisk ==
  4. {{=de=}} -> == Tysk ==
  5. {{-etym-}} -> \n==== Etymologi ====
  6. {{-pronun-}} -> \n==== Udtale ====
  7. {{-noun-|da}} -> \n=== Substantiv ===\n{{head|da|substantiv}}
  8. {{-verb-|da}} -> \n=== Verbum ===\n{{head|da|verbum}}
  9. {{-adv-|da}} -> \n=== Adverbium ===\n{{head|da|adverbium}}
  10. {{-adv-|da}} -> \n=== Adjektiv ===\n{{head|da|adjektiv}}
  11. {{-interj-|da}} -> \n=== Verbum ===\n{{head|da|interjektion}}
  12. {{-ang-}} -> \n==== Anagrammer ====
  13. {{-ant-}} -> \n==== Antonymer ====
  14. {{-decl-}} -> \n==== Bøjning ====
  15. {{-ref-}} -> \n=== Kilder ===
  16. {{-rel-}} -> \n==== Beslægtede ord og fraser ====
  17. {{-syn-}} -> \n==== Synonymer ====
  18. {{-trans-}} -> \n==== Oversættelser ====
  19. {{(}} -> {{trans-top|}}
  20. {{-}} -> {{trans-mid}}
  21. {{)}} -> {{trans-bottom}}

Nogen reaktion på det?

Lyder fint. Kinamand (diskussion) 31. aug 2019, 08:29 (UTC)
Hvad skulle fordelen være ved det? Ved brug at skabelonerne kan ikke-danskkyndige til dels også bidrage. Desuden ryger den kategorisering, skabelonerne laver.
- Sarrus (db) d. 31. aug 2019, 10:15 (UTC)
Tak for dit spørgsmål @Sarrus. Hovedargumenterne er 3 fra diskussionen her ovenfor:
  1. Mere overskuelig wikitekst som ikke nødvendigvis fordrer at man kender til et hav af skabeloner.
  2. Mulighed at ændre i sektioner baseret på overskrifternes inddeling af teksten.
  3. Vi anpasser os til udviklingen på flagskibet en:wiktionary og det bliver nemmere at underholde wikien med den lille mandkraft vi har til rådighed.
Jeg synes personligt at wikier som fx den tyske, den polske er noget værre rod med alle talhenvisninger og skabeloner. I modsætning har fx svenskerne nærmet sig den engelske og lykkes meget bedre synes jeg.
Dit argument, om at skabeloner med forkortelser skulle være nemmere end overskrifter, synes jeg ikke opvejer ulemperne eftersom at overskrifterne er ganske få og ganske lig de andre sprog. Fx antonym, antonym (sv), antonym (en), osv.
Jeg foreslår i tillæg til denne ændring at vi installerer tegn-boksen under redigeringsvinduet og ligesom på en:wikt fylder den med almindelige overskrifter så de kan indsættes med et klik.--So9q (diskussion) 31. aug 2019, 13:33 (UTC)
Grundet studiestart har jeg ikke så meget tid til at hjælpe til, men jeg vil foreslå at du venter med dette til efter kategoriseringen er blevet sørget for.__Gamren (diskussion) 3. sep 2019, 20:30 (UTC)
Ekstra lille bemærkning: ang, som åbenbart står for anagram, er også sprogkoden for oldengelsk.


common.js fungerer ikke

Hej. Når jeg indsætter js på min brugers common.js så fungerer det ikke. På en:wiktionary fungerer det fint.--So9q (diskussion) 31. aug 2019, 11:01 (UTC)

1) Kan det være et cache-problem? 2) Kan det være et Javascript-problem: Får du fejlmeddelelser nå du ser debug informationen med F12-knappen trykket. — Fnielsen (diskussion) 13. sep 2019, 14:54 (UTC)


Ophavsret, Wikionary og Wikidata

Jeg ser nu at der er en bot der i stort omfang kopiere visse dele af den russiske Wiktionary til Wikidata lexemer. Yuri som har stået for det har henvist til Wikimedia Foundations "perspective" omkring emnet. Spørgsmålet er hvad der er ophavsretsmæssigt beskyttet på Wiktionary. Konklussionen som går under "This Is Not Legal Advice" er at grammatikken ikke er ophavsretsbeskyttet, — og det derfor burde være muligt at kopiere lemma og bøjninger fra Wiktionary til Creative Commons Zero-baserede Wikidata (men ikke for eksempel, brugseksempler og definitioner). Jeg gad vide hvordan danske Wiktionary-redaktører stiller sig over for den problematik. Ville det være en idé at kopiere danske ord og deres bøjninger til Wikidata, eller er det problematisk?

Der er iøjeblikket også opråb fra Lea Lacroix om input til hvordan og hvilke funktionaliteter Wikidata-til-Wiktionary der er ønsket.

Jeg ser også at den russiske Wiktionary har skabt en lille sideboks der linker fra Wiktionary-sider til relevante Wikidata-leksemer. Måske skulle vi også have en sådan på den danske Wiktionary?

Fnielsen (diskussion) 13. sep 2019, 14:52 (UTC)

Intet er ophavsretsmæssigt beskyttet på Wiktionary. Hele ideen med Wiktionary og Wikipedia er at indholdet frit skal kunne bruges af alle og til hvad som helst. Kan du give et link til at eksempel på en side på den russiske Wiktionary der har den lille sideboks du snakker om så vi kan se hvad du mener? Kinamand (diskussion) 15. sep 2019, 11:00 (UTC)
@Kinamand Det er ikke Wikimedia Foundations non-legal-advice mening at intet på er ophavsretsmæssigt beskyttet på Wiktionary. WMF konklussion er netop at "Microstructure and Macrostructure", "Definitions with room for creativity", "Pragmatic information" og "Encyclopedic information and example sentences" er ophavsretsmæssigt beskyttet og "kun" er tilgængelig under den sædvanlige CC BY-SA licens. Da Wikidata benytter CC0 er det WMF's tro at visse dele af Wiktionary ikke kan kopieres til Wikidata. Som jeg forstår på den russiske Wiktionary er Yuri i gang med at forsøge at få skribenter til at relicensere deres Wiktionary-bidrag så det falder ind under CC0 og kan kopieres til Wikidata. Yuri's hidtidige arbejder har været med bøjningerne og lemma som WMF mener ikke er ophavsretsbeskyttet. Mht. sideboksen: Der er oversigt over de russiske leksemer i Ordia her: https://tools.wmflabs.org/ordia/language/Q7737 Et eksempel er https://ru.wiktionary.orghttps://dictious.com/da/%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B0%D0%BA%D1%80%D1%83%D0%B6%D0%BE%D0%BA hvor sideboksen findes som den første boks til højre. — Fnielsen (diskussion) 16. sep 2019, 09:58 (UTC)

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

Hjælp venligst med at oversætte til dit sprog

Hello everyone,

I apologize for posting in English. I would like to inform everyone that I created a new global request for comment (GRFC) at Meta Wiki, which may affect your project: m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally.

In this GRFC, I propose that two-project shortcuts for project names will become a default alias for the project namespace. For instance, on all Wikipedias, WP will be an alias to the Wikipedia: namespace (and similar for other projects). Full list is available in the GRFC.

This is already the case for Wikivoyages, and many individual projects asked for this alias to be implemented. I believe this makes it easier to access the materials in the project namespace, as well as creating shortcuts like WP:NPOV, as well as helps new projects to use this feature, without having to figure out how to request site configuration changes first.

As far as I can see, Wiktionary currently does not have such an alias set. This means that such an alias will be set for you, if the GRFC is accepted by the global community.

I would like to ask all community members to participate in the request for comment at Meta-Wiki, see m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally.

Please feel free to ask me if you have any questions about this proposal.

Universal Code of Conduct – 2021 consultations

Universal Code of Conduct Phase 2

Hjælp venligst med at oversætte til dit sprog

The Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) provides a universal baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire Wikimedia movement and all its projects. The project is currently in Phase 2, outlining clear enforcement pathways. You can read more about the whole project on its project page.

Drafting Committee: Call for applications

The Wikimedia Foundation is recruiting volunteers to join a committee to draft how to make the code enforceable. Volunteers on the committee will commit between 2 and 6 hours per week from late April through July and again in October and November. It is important that the committee be diverse and inclusive, and have a range of experiences, including both experienced users and newcomers, and those who have received or responded to, as well as those who have been falsely accused of harassment.

To apply and learn more about the process, see Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee.

2021 community consultations: Notice and call for volunteers / translators

From 5 April – 5 May 2021 there will be conversations on many Wikimedia projects about how to enforce the UCoC. We are looking for volunteers to translate key material, as well as to help host consultations on their own languages or projects using suggested key questions. If you are interested in volunteering for either of these roles, please contact us in whatever language you are most comfortable.

To learn more about this work and other conversations taking place, see Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations.

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election has come to an end

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

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

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

Upcoming Call for Feedback about the Board of Trustees elections

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

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

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

  • What is the best way to ensure fair representation of emerging communities among the Board?
  • What involvement should candidates have during the election?

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

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

Contact the Movement Strategy and Governance team on Meta, on Telegram, or via email at msg(_AT_)wikimedia.org.

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

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

There are events scheduled to learn more and discuss:

  • A community panel recorded on 18 February 2022 shares perspectives from small- and medium-sized community participants.
  • The Movement Strategy and Governance (MSG) team is hosting Conversation Hours on 4 March 2022 at 15:00 UTC.

Hello!

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

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

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

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

Hello all,

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

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

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

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

On behalf of the UCoC project team

Propose statements for the 2022 Election Compass

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

Hi all,

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

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

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

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

Best,

Movement Strategy and Governance

The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks?

The slides for our presentation at Wikimania 2022

Hello. I'm writing on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Web team. In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.

We have been working on it for the past three years. So far, it has been the default on more than 30 wikis, including sister projects, all accounting for more than 1 billion pageviews per month. On average 87% of active logged-in users of those wikis use Vector 2022.

It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy. Logged-in users can at any time switch to any other skins. No changes are expected for users of these skins.

About the skin

The current default skin meets the needs of the readers and editors as these were 13 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using Wikimedia projects. The old Vector doesn't meet their needs.

The objective for the new skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It draws inspiration from previous requests, the Community Wishlist Surveys, and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. We reduced PHP code in Wikimedia deployed skins by 75%. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs.

The skin introduces a series of changes that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin.

  • The sticky header makes it easier to find tools that editors use often. It decreases scrolling to the top of the page by 16%.
  • The new table of contents makes it easier to navigate to different sections. Readers and editors jumped to different sections of the page 50% more than with the old table of contents. It also looks a bit different on talk pages.
  • The new search bar is easier to find and makes it easier to find the correct search result from the list. This increased the amount of searches started by 30% on the wikis we tested on.
  • The skin does not negatively affect pageviews, edit rates, or account creation. There is evidence of increases in pageviews and account creation across partner communities.

Try out the new skin by going to the appearance tab in your preferences and selecting Vector 2022 from the list of skins.

How can editors change and customize this skin?

It's possible to configure and personalize our changes. We support volunteers who create new gadgets and user scripts. Check out our repository for a list of currently available customizations, or add your own.

Our plan

If no large concerns are raised, we plan on deploying in the week of October 3, 2022. If your community would like to request more time to discuss the changes, hit the button and write to us. We can adjust the calendar.

If you'd like ask our team anything, if you have questions, concerns, or additional thoughts, please ping me here or write on the talk page of the project. We will gladly answer! Also, see our FAQ. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 22. sep. 2022, 04:15 (UTC)
