Recent changes

• You can no longer read Wikimedia wikis if your browser use very old TLS. This is because it is a security problem for everyone. It can lead to downgrade attacks. Since 9 December you just see a warning. Soon the browser will not connect to the wikis at all. Most are users on Android systems older than 4.4. You can read the browser recommendations. [1]
• Special:LinkSearch has been moved from the "Redireccions" section on Special:SpecialPages to the "Listas de paginas" section. [2]

Changes later this week

• Wikis can protect pages so that only some users can edit them. The standard protection levels are Blocar los utilizaires novèls e los utilizaires anonims and Administrators unicament. If your wiki use more protection levels the technical name might be renamed for standardisation. This doesn't affect what users see. [3]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 14 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 15 January. It will be on all wikis from 16 January (calendar).

Future changes

• Deepcat and Catgraph will stop working. This will happen at the end of January. This is because you can now use the normal search function instead. [4]
• You can use <ref follow="…"> to merge footnotes that follow each other. It is meant to be used for digitised books on Wikisource. If the order of the footnotes is wrong no error was shown but the bad <ref> was shown outside the <references /> list. This will change and you will see an error message instead. [5]

Comptes dobles

Adiu, Joan Francés e bona annada. Ai vist qu'as utilizat un sistème automatic que calcula la populacion e la densitat gràcias a una comunicacion ambe l'INSEE. Aquò's fòrt plan quand es configurat coma cal. Solament ací la populacion donada es la ambe comptes dobles. Ex : quand l'escolan Eutrope Broustejoutes, de Luberçac, comuna de Sent Sarnin, es intèrne al licèu de Marmanda, es comptat dos còps : a Sent Sarnin e a Marmanda. A Marmanda es comptat a part. En bona demografia, l'usatge es de notar la populacion municipala sense comptes dobles, en tirant la populacion comptada a part, donc a Marmanda sense l'escolan Broustejoutes. Veiràs per exemple que sus la Wp francesa, qu'a las donadas a jorn, Artigueloutan a 1090 abitants en 2017 e li'n donas 1119 : los 29 son la populacion comptada a part, que cal pas botar, segon los usatges. Sai pas se pòdes corregir lo daquòs... Amistats.Sivadon 1949 (d) 18 genièr de 2020 a 01.58 (UTC)

Adiu. Se dises que dins los autres estats d'Occitània botan la populacion totala (ambe'ls comptats a part), probable qu'o sabes (es pas dins mas coneissenças). Çaquela vesi sus Viquipèdia una precision : « Les dades del 1717 al 1981 són de la població de fet, que inclou els presents i els transeünts, segons el cens de població. Les dades a partir de 1990 són de la població de dret, segons el padró continu municipal. » . Los transeünts me semblan ben correspondre als comptats a part. E populació de dret seriá coma population municipale ? Mès benlèu qu'i compreni pas ren. Ai emplegat la nocion de comptes dobles perqué es pus evocatritz per las personas que pòdon legir nòstra correspondéncia. Demai, foguèt ma formacion, ieu que soi plan vièlh. Per la meteissa rason pedagogica, ai donat un exemple concret... e risolièr. Ai fait una passejada dins las autras Wp e m'a semblat qu'utilizavan la populacion municipala (benlèu perqué avián copiat sus la Wp francesa, mès cresi que non, sembla automatic). Me sembla tanben que la populacion s'ajusta automaticament e qu'es pas necessari de la copiar a la man, veni de far l'experiéncia. Escota, pel canton de Pau Davant, faràs coma voldràs. E pels autres, se vòls. Me sembla pas una bona idèa, personalament, de far pas coma las autras Wp. Amistats.

Ai assajat sul canton de Vilamblard e la comuna de Belesmas, 274 ab en 2017. Lo sistèma me bota 279. Ai cercat perqué : èra la populacion de 2015 ! Ai assajat sus una autra comuna : parièr ! Perqué ? sai pas. Conclusion ? pel moment, arrèsti. Sivadon 1949 (d) 18 genièr de 2020 a 17.49 (UTC)

D'un costat, quitament se i a de retards, es un sistèma qu'es en comunion mistica ambe l'INSEE (coma los apòstols lo jorn de Pentacosta ambe'l Sant Esperit), e donc que s'actualiza automaticament. I vau soscar. Cossí que siá, utilizarai sonque la populacion municipala. Sivadon 1949 (d) 24 genièr de 2020 a 04.01 (UTC)

Problems

• Some mobile diffs have problems. A couple of buttons are not shown. Structured data diffs on Commons are confusing. The developers are working on fixing it. [8][9]

Incrustacion

Adiu, Joan-Francés. Sus las infobóstias vesi tot còp lo mot Eraudica (sic, per Eraldica, mot sabent creat al sègle XIXen) que s'apond, que i aja un blason o pas. Sai pas se qualqu'un a faita una conariá... Amicalament. Sivadon 1949 (d) 10 febrièr de 2020 a 08.14 (UTC)

A ! Cresi qu'ai trobat. Cal pas escriure cap sus la partida escut quand n'i a pas. Quand n'i a un, sai pas çò que caldriá far per evitar aquela pollucion. Sivadon 1949 (d) 10 febrièr de 2020 a 08.33 (UTC)

Tè, per exemple Landeroat, compara la version actuala ambe la version del 3 de febrièr (cas d'una comuna sense blason). O Pelagrua, cas d'una comuna ambe blason.Sivadon 1949 (d) 10 febrièr de 2020 a 09.50 (UTC)

È ben fas un brave trabalh per las populacions. Joan Baptista èra lo Precursor del Crist, tu ès lo Precursor del Sant Esperit... de l'INSEE puslèu. Li permetes de davalar sus las paginas. Per çò qu'es d'« Eraudica » (en maissant occitan), sembla qu'a pas cambiat ren. Ai ensajat de suprimir la linha... totjorn ren. Compreni pas. Amistats. Joan Pèire Sivadon. Sivadon 1949 (d) 11 febrièr de 2020 a 20.34 (UTC)

As trobada una solucion eleganta. Mès, en gaitant l'istoric, ai vist que n'i aviá una de mai simpla : suprimir la legenda de l'escut, ajustada inutilament en 2015. L'ai suprimida (mès càmbia pas res, me sembla). Digas-me çò que ne pensas s'es pas d'acòrdi. Amistats.Sivadon 1949 (d) 13 febrièr de 2020 a 02.30 (UTC)

Fòrmas mixtas o estranhas

Adiu, Joan Francés. Avèm un òme que dona de noms novèls e estranhs a de comunas auvernhassas o borbonesas (Linharolas ? per Linharòlas o Linhairòlas benlèu, de *linariola ?). Aquels noms semblan de còps en grafia bonaudiana o mixta (Eschaseiras, Vernusa, ambe [z] ? Gotira per Goteira(s) probable, ambe barradura costumièra de la tonica, que s'escriu pas) o eventualament realistas (Serbanas, coneissi pas l'etimologia, benlèu gallés *sili-bana, mès lo sens es malaisit ?) o... sai pas ! Coneissi pas tròp mal los parlars e la toponimia del Cantal, un pauc mens los de Léger Naut, mès pus au nòrd manqui de coneissenças precisas. Me gardi de tota suposicion mès me pensi que val mai survelhar sas iniciativas e revertar çò qu'es pas fontat sus de fonts seriosas o que sembla opausat a las règlas de la fonetica istorica. Ai dejà començat per Tièrn (la tombada de g intervocalic es regulara : Tihernum en 1373, Tiernium en 1392 segon los Féniés). Amistats.Sivadon 1949 (d) 14 febrièr de 2020 a 18.48 (UTC)

Modèl "Data" amb errors...

Bonjorn, Joan Francés.

(en): I saw you were able to fix some of the errors with the demography model. I noticed that Modèl:Data has script errors and is edit-protected, so only an admin can work on it. Currently it doesn't show its description page] and on said page, you can see that certain dates are not working. If you have time, please give it a look-over.

(oc): Ai vist que poiriatz corregir cèrtas d'errors del modèl demografic. Ai remarcat que Modèl:Data conten d'errors de script e es protegit contra las modificacions, doncas sol un administrador i pòt trabalhar. Actualament, aficha pas sa pagina de descripcion e sus aquela pagina, podètz veire que cèrtas datas foncionan pas. S'avètz lo temps, volgatz getar un còp d'uèlh.

Grand mercés. -BrennodAloisi (d) 24 febrièr de 2020 a 18.14 (UTC)

Problems

• Readers who were not logged in briefly saw the interface in a language decided by their browser. It should normally be in the language of the wiki. This happened for a short period of time last week. This was because of a bug. [16]

Changes later this week

• If you forget your password you can ask for a new one to be sent to your email address. You need to know your email address or your username. You will now be able to choose that you need to enter both your email address and your username. This will be a preference. This is to get fewer password reset emails someone else asked for. [17]
• When you asked for a new password you could see if the username didn't exist on Special:PasswordReset. Now the page will show the username you entered and tell you an email has been sent if the username exists. This is for better security. [18]
• On Special:WhatLinksHere you can see what other pages link to a page. You can see if the link is from a redirect. You can now see which section the redirect links to. [19]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 3 de març. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 4 de març. It will be on all wikis from 5 de març (calendar).

• The developers are working on a new interface to solve edit conflicts on talk pages. You can give feedback. [20]
• There is a vote on the creation of a new user group called abuse filter manager. The vote runs from March 1 to March 31 on Meta.
• wgMFSpecialCaseMainPage was used for the mobile site. It was deprecated in 2017. It will stop working in April. Wikis should see if they use it. If they do they should fix it. You can read more and ask for help. This affects 183 wikis. There is a list. [21]

Lemosin

Adieu, Joan Francés. Ès prudent e as plan rason. Mès aqueste còp me soi ajudat del diccionari francés-occitan de Lavalada. Escriu egleisa. Pel catalan església es una fòrma mièja-sabenta, mès l'occitan glèisa me sembla tanben mièg-sabent (-cl- intervocalic a l'origina > lh normalament) coma plan de mots del domeni religiós. En catalan i a agut en mai una influéncia dels mots nombroses que començan per es-, doncas una analogia e en lengadocian, gascon, etc, una aferèsi. L'etime es ecclesia. Tant que i sèm, s'as léser poiriás gaitar a las explicacions que doni a BrennodAloisi sus sa [pagina de discussion]. M'interrogava sus ma grafia de Mòrtamar (Lavalada : Mòrta Mar) e sus La Ròcha Focaud. Ai dit çò qu'aviás comprés, mès... o sabi pas tot, mai que mai sus de decisions del CLO o autres. A ! tanben Sent Jòrgi e Negremont. As cambiat en ajustant un e, mès coma Sent Jòrgi e Negremont semblan ben lo meteis lòc e non pas dos vilatges, l'anciana grafia sense e es probablament milhora. Ai verificat sus la mapa de Cassini, la lista actuala dels lieux-dits : cap Nigremont en defòra del borg de St-Georges-Nigremont. Ai pas volgut tornar nomenar còp-sec en Sent Jòrgi Negremont. Ai çaquelà modificat Borgon Nuòu en Borgonuòu, una error de Lavalada a l'origina, malgrat lo nom francés Bourganeuf qu'auriá poscut lo metre sus las bonas pesadas. Fasiá tròp de temps que me fasiá aisse ! Amistats. Sivadon 1949 (d) 5 març de 2020 a 12.21 (UTC)

Es un famós resultat, Joan Francés. Ès un excellent informatician. Ara, serà pas mai la pena que boti la populacion actuala dins lo paragrafe de demografia. Sivadon 1949 (d) 5 març de 2020 a 17.01 (UTC)

Comuna francesa

Adiu, Joan Francés. I a un tipe, que per de rasons non enciclopedicas, fotèt un rambalh tarrible en volent suprimir l'article Comuna francesa sus un article que, en realitat, parlava pas que d'aquela nocion administrativa. Remplacèt l'article per un autre al nom de comuna que donc tractava pas de la nocion generala de comuna. En mai d'aquò, los ligams ambe'ls autres articles son sovent cap a de nocions diferentas. Per ajustar al rambalh e amagar sa manipulacion, lo meteis contributor i apondèt artificialament lo contengut de l'article Municipi (illustrat per una mapa de la Val d'Aran) nocion generala qu'a per contengut semantic la nocion d'unitat administrativa de basa (encara que los ligams ambe'ls autres Wps sián del tipe Town Hall = ostal de comuna e que per exemple Town Hall mene a l'article occitan Ostal de comuna...). Ai començat a botar un pauc d'òrdre, primièrament en tirant l'apondi artificial Municipi, segondament en revertant aqueste matin las redireccions entre Comuna e Comuna francesa al benefici del primièr, çò que me permetèt de restablir l'article Comuna francesa. Lo resultat es pas complet, perqué, un, l'article Comuna existís encara en concurréncia ambe Comuna francesa, dos, que segon las introduccions, quand un article parla de "es una comuna" o "es una comuna francesa|comuna", aquò mena quora a un article, quora a l'autre e, tres, que lo rambalh dels ligams ambe'ls articles dins d'autras lengas es pas brica resolgut, mès enfin la situacion es un pauc melhorada. Me pensi que caldriá suprimir l'article Comuna (trabalh d'un administrator), quitament se dins un primièr temps aquò nos farà un pauc de roge dins las introduccions de las comunas occitanas e per çò qu'es del rambalh dels ligams ambe'ls articles de las autras Wp, es pas de ma competéncia malurosament. Ai fait çò qu'ai poscut e se va pas o se cal completar lo trabalh (causa pas especialment urgenta)... personalament pòdi pas. Fòra de la question, me mainèri fa 15 jorns que dins la Wp.Torn de França ciclista, après divèrsas manòbras que vòli pas qualificar, volián suprimir l'article Michel de Lorgeril (a l'avantatge probable de... o vòli pas dire). En urgéncia per salvar l'article, ne copièri una version anteriora, comencèri a la traduire e i vòli ajustar çò qu'ai trobat sus un libre de l'interessat. Pr'amor de mon nivèl scientific, ensagi çaquelà de copiar pas tròp de causas que soi pas capable de comprene e de mestrejar. L'article serà donc un pauc mens maissant e en tot cas pus equilibrat que son equivalent francés catastrofic, mès A vaincre sans péril on triomphe sans gloire ! Fin finala l'article francés, vengut completament caricatural, es pas estat suprimit, mès se podiá pas preveire. Supausi que i aura d'agressions contra l'article occitan. Amistats.

Estats e territòris d'Índia

Adieu Joan Francés.

Universal Code of Conduct

Hi Jfblanc

I was asked by Wikimedia Foundation to promote this call for participation on the planned Universal Code of Conduct.

Best regards --Holder (d) 13 agost de 2020 a 04.00 (UTC)

Pendant plus de 19 ans, les Wikimédiens et Wikimédiennes ont travaillé ensemble pour bâtir la plus vaste ressource de connaissance libre de l’humanité. Durant cette période, nous somme passés d’un petit groupe de contributeurs à une communauté de rédacteurs, de développeurs, d’affiliés, de lecteurs, de donateurs et de partenaires.

Cependant, nous réalisons que rester fidèle à notre objectif, celui qui est exprimé dans notre vision d’«imaginer une monde dans lequel chaque être humain peut librement partager et contribuer à la somme de tous les savoirs», nous avons encore beaucoup de travail à faire.

Par moments, nos contributeurs et contributrices, de même que nos projets eux-mêmes, ont souffert d’un manque de normes qui non seulement nous unissent entre nous mais qui permettent de créer collaborativement un environnement où la connaissance libre peut être partagée sans crainte. Afin de nous rapprocher de cet objectif, nous devons nous assurer que toutes les personnes qui souhaitent contribuer de manière constructive sur nos plateformes se sentent à l'aise et encouragées à nous rejoindre. Nous avons besoin de normes qui peuvent aider à créer un environnement constructif et inclusif qui encourage le partage des connaissances libres.

Au fil du temps, plusieurs échanges ont souligné la nécessité d’avoir un ensemble règles de conduite s’appliquant de manière universelle aux différentes communautés, et enfin, le Conseil de la Fondation Wikimedia a rendu publique une déclaration, promulguant de nouvelles normes pour lutter contre le harcèlement et promouvoir l'inclusivité au sein des projets.[117] Le Code universel de conduite constituera un minimum de règles s’appliquant à tous les projet Wikimédia, et à nous tous, salarié(e)s et bénévoles, aux quatre coins du monde, et aura un impact sur notre travail et nos groupes, nos membres et nos projets. Il est important que nous participions tous et exprimions nos idées sur ce Code, sa nature, ce que qu’il devrait prendre en compte ou non; comment il pourrait faire croître, freiner ou aider nos groupes.

C’est le moment d’en parler. Votre communauté fait partie du mouvement Wikimédia et votre voix compte. Pour qu’elle soit entendue, vous êtes invités à en savoir un peu plus sur le Code de conduite universel [118] et à exprimer par écrit vos idées et réactions sur la page de discussion [119]. Pour plus de flexibilité et pour encourager la participation dans le plus de langues possible, vous êtes chaleureusement invités à traduire la page principale du code de conduite universel dans votre langue respective [120]. Vous et votre communauté pourrez choisir d’exprimer vos opinions dans la langue de votre projet. Par ailleurs, dans le cas où la page sur metawiki ne serait pas encore traduite dans la langue de votre projet, veuillez noter que vous êtes encouragés à répondre dans la langue de votre choix même s’il s’agit d’un fil de discussion initié en anglais sur le code de conduite universel.

Recent changes

• If you revert an edit using the undo link your edit is marked with an undo tag. This will now only happen if you don't change anything in the edit window before publishing the undo. This is to keep users from marking edits as undos when they actually do something else. [121]
• The new OOUI version will not work with Internet Explorer 8. This means the wikis will look strange and not work well in Internet Explorer 8. This was reported in Tech/News/2020/17. This is because keeping the wikis working with very old browsers creates other problems. [122]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 18 August. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 19 August. It will be on all wikis from 20 August (calendar).

Future changes

• All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on September 1. This is planned between 13:30 and 15:30 UTC. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis next week. This is a reminder. You can help by translating the announcement message. [123][124]

Changes later this week

• Normally pages can be moved to a title that has no existing page yet or to a page that has only one revision, which is a redirect to the page to be moved. A new user right allows editors to move pages over one-revision pages that redirect to anywhere. [127]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 8 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 9 September. It will be on all wikis from 10 September (calendar).
• All MediaWiki API modules will now use watchlist instead of watch. This was inconsistent before. [128]

Future changes

• The Wikipedia Android app team might work on patrolling tools in the future. You can let them know what tools would be useful for you or for less experienced patrollers. See the page on mediawiki.org.
• OTRS will be updated to a new version. This will probably take around two days. OTRS agents will not have access to the system during these days. Emails that come in during the update will be delivered when the update is done. The plan is to start around 08:00 UTC on 14 September. This could change. [129]
• The Wikipedia Android app will send push notifications if users want them. This could help you see for example when someone wrote on your talk page or your edit was reverted. This will need Google Play Services to work. It will also be possible to get the app without Google Play Services but push notifications will not work. Google Play Services is also used to make the app work for Android 4.4 users. [130][131]
• Wikimedia code review could move to GitLab. It would be hosted on Wikimedia servers. You can take part in the consultation.
• Dropdown menus in the Vector skin use a .menu class. This will not work in the future. Scripts can use nav ul instead. .vectorTabs and .vectorMenu will also not work. Some scripts need to be updated. You can read more in Phabricator.

Castèths Andòrta

Mercés Joan Francés. Es coma una comuna independenta, càmbia pas ren. Si, cal ajustar una s. Ai corregit la superficia per Castèths qu'èra pas justa e per evitar las ambiguïtats, ai precisat qu'es adara que la comuna es delegada e non pas a l'epòca de validitat del canton. Ai fait çò meteis per Castilhon de Castèths dins lo canton d'Auròs. Mès aquò vòl dire qu'en defòra de l'infobox, se pòt actualizar (normalament !) la populacion e la densitat de la comuna delegada dins l'article. Amistats.

Recent changes

• There is a new tag for reverted edits. For example you can see it in the recent changes feed or in the article history. It is added to edits when they have been undone, rollbacked or manually reverted to an older version of the page. [134][135]

Changes later this week

• The number of times you can do something in a period of time on wiki is limited. This could be the number of edits per minute or the number of users you email in a day. Some users are not affected by all limits because of their user rights. They could soon see the limit even if it does not affect them. [136]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 22 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 23 September. It will be on all wikis from 24 September (calendar).

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• Admins can now see links to diffs of deleted revisions on Special:AbuseLog. This uses the interface of Special:Undelete. [137]
• Editors are automatically added to some user groups. For example editors are added to autoconfirmed users when they have edited enough times and long enough. Abuse filters can hinder users from automatically getting user rights for a period of time. They can also remove rights user have. Wikis can now ask to change how long this period of time is for their wiki in Phabricator. It is currently five days. [138]

Problems

• Last year some abuse filters stopped working because of a new change. If they tried to use variables that were unavailable for that action they would fail. This has now been fixed. [139]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 29 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 30 September. It will be on all wikis from 1 October (calendar).

Future changes

• You can't see the language links to other language versions from the talk page or history page. They are also not shown when you edit an article. This could change. It is not decided if for example the history page should link to another history page or to the article. You can take part in the discussion in Phabricator.
• The link colours could change. This is to make the difference between links and other text more clear. You can read more in Phabricator.
• In your preferences you can choose to get different notifications on the web or by email. You will see Apps as one of the alternatives later this week. This is because the Android and iOS Wikipedia apps will use push notifications for those who want them. You can see the preferences on the test wiki. The goal is to have push notifications on Android in October and on iOS in early 2021. [140]
• You can soon put pages on your watchlist for a limited time. This could be useful if you want to watch something for a shorter time but don't want it on your watchlist forever. It now works on mediawiki.org and will come to more wikis later. You can read more and see when it will come to other wikis.
• You can see what Wikimedians think are the best new technical tools this year. You can also nominate them.

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• There is a new tool where you can see which home wiki users have in discussions on Meta. This can help show which communities are not part of the discussion on wikis where we make decisions that affect many other wikis.
• You can now thank users for file uploads or for changing the language of a page. [141]

Problems

• There were many errors with the new MediaWiki version last week. The new version was rolled back. Updates that should have happened last week are late. [142]
• Everyone was logged out. This was because a user reported being logged in to someone else's account. The problem should be fixed now. [143]
• Many pages have JavaScript errors. You can read more and now see a list of user scripts with errors.

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 6 October. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 7 October. It will be on all wikis from 8 October (calendar).
• Letters immediately after a link are shown as part of the link. For example the entire word in [[Child]]ren is linked. On Arabic wikis this works at both the start and end of a word. Previously on Arabic wikis numbers and other non-letter Unicode characters were shown as part of the link at the start of a word but not at the end. Now only Latin and Arabic letters will extend links on Arabic wikis. [144]

Future changes

• You will be able to read but not to edit the wikis for up to an hour on 27 October around 14:00 (UTC). It will probably be shorter than an hour. [145]

Rejoignez d’autres membres de la communauté Occitane

Bonjour à toutes et à tous. Pour celles et ceux qui n’ont encore jamais entendu parlé de moi, c’est normal. De fait , je viens tout récemment d’intégrer wiki media France en tant que volontaire, très heureux de pouvoir venir en aide aux projets en rapport avec la diversité linguistique.

Naturellement, accroître la visibilité de l’Occitan et le nombre de contributions qui sont faits dans cette langue sur les outils développés par wiki media est l’une de nos priorités. Nous espérons ainsi soutenir et accompagner toute personne qui donne de son temps pour contribuer d’une façon ou d’une autre sur ces outils.

Dans cette optique là, une première mise en contact entre vous et moi nous serait pas de refus. Si vous êtes d’accord sur le principe d’une rencontre, alors je pense qu’elle nous sera primordiale pour engager notre collaboration sur la voie que vous souhaitez lui voir prendre. Ce serai l’occasion pour moi de prendre connaissance des besoins de la communauté Occitane dans les projets de conservation de la langue et plus généralement d’énoncer quelques directives qui nous seront utiles pour la suite. Aussi, nous pourrons voir quels sont les projets qui restent à discuter avant d’être lancés, comme la mise en place de pages d’aides en Occitan sur Wikipedia et Lingua libre.

A cet effet, voici un lien vers un sondage où vous pourrez y faire figurer vos préférences en termes de disponibilités. [152]

Merci d’avance pour votre réponse,
Mercé !

Bien cordialement,

Nicolas Lopez de Silanes
Chargé de projet diversité lingustique, Wikimédia France

Clarifications réunion communauté Occitane

Bonjour Joan,

Vous avez soulevé des questions importantes et pour cela je vous remercie de votre réponse.

Tout d'abord en ce qui concerne le format, l'idée est d'avoir une réunion avec tous les utilisateurs de la communauté Occitane sur wikipédia et le wikitionnaire. Que cette dernière soit visio ou pas, cela dépendra du logiciel et c'est une question que je verrai plus tard. La réunion aurait pour objectif principal de faire connaissance et d'établir une feuille de route ou du moins une ébauche des projets à venir. Ainsi, dans les réunions qui suivront, nous pourrons discuter plen en détail de ces projets et leur logistiques.

Pour ce qui est des horaires, j'ai modifié le sondage afin que ce ne soit plus trois heures qui soient affichés mais deux. Il s'agit d'une plage horaire pour donner plus de choix aux répondants, donc la réunion ne devra pas obligatoirement durer deux heures. Vous serez libre d'arriver et quitter la réunion à votre convenance selon vos disponibilités durant ces deux heures.

En ce qui concerne la barrière de la langue Francaise pour certains, il faut encore que je vois dans quelle(s) langue(s) se déroulerait la réunion, à savoir si en Francais uniquement ou bien en Anglais ou alors un mix des deux. Cela dépandra de la langue que les répondants maitrisent le mieux. Dans tous les cas, comme l'a suggeré Brennod ALoisi, il y'aura une trace écrite de la réunion en Francais et en Anglais pour que l'on soit tous sur la même page.

En espérant avoir rendu plus clair mes propos, n'hésitez pas à ma faire part d'autres doutes qui vous traversent l'éesprit.
Bien à vous,

Nicolas Looez de Silanes, chargé des projets diversité linguistique, Wikimédia France

Sent Crabasi e Sent Çabrian

Adiu, Joan Francés. En 2018, m'èri mainat que l'article sus Sent Crabasi (46250 Saint-Caprais (Lot) en francés) èra en realitat lo de Sent Çabrian (46262 Saint-Cyprien (Lot) en francés). Auèi, me soi pensat que l'article sus Sent Crabasi foguèt pas jamai creat. En 2018, aviái donat a l'article que portava lo nom de Sent Crabasi un títol que correspondiá a son contengut : Sent Çabrian. L'article es corrèctament ligat als articles internacionals. Malurosament - e aquí soi imperdonable, ambe tota mon experiéncia - m'èri pas avisat que l'article que correspond a St Caprais (Lot) existís, ambe un títol fals çaquelà, Sent Cabrasi (Carcin), Cabr- e pas Crab-. Aviái cercat sus nòstra Wp Sent Crabasi o Sent Crabasi (Carcin) e aviái pas trobat res. Cal dire que la lista de las comunas en devath de cada article conteniá qu'un nom. Conclusion, creacion d'un article Sent Crabasi (Carcin) que veni de tornar nomenar Article a suprimir e de voidar de son contengut. Se pòdes suprimir Article a suprimir... Mercés. Sivadon 1949 (d) 13 octobre de 2020 a 13.28 (UTC)

Mercés, Joan Francés. Demòra un article orfanèl, Article a suprimir. Benlèu lo pòdi utilizar per ne far quicòm mai. Amistats. Sivadon 1949 (d) 14 octobre de 2020 a 00.10 (UTC)

Fin finala, as plan fait de lo suprimir. Agèssi creat quicòm sus aquela basa, se qualqu'un mai aviá renomenat Sent Cabrasi en Sent Crabasi (Carcin), auriá espotit mon trabalh. Amistats.Sivadon 1949 (d) 15 octobre de 2020 a 17.23 (UTC)

Supression infobox

Adiu Joan Francés. Compreni perqué as suprimida l'infobox de Sent Pantaleon (Carcin). Vertat es que i a un problèma a totas las infobox : la densitat de populacion demòra çò qu'èra en 2013. Siquenon, a una valor informativa vertadièra. En esperant, l'ai restablida. M'explicaràs, probable. Amistats. Sivadon 1949 (d) 17 octobre de 2020 a 10.32 (UTC)

A! d'acòrdi. Per las ancianas comunas, delegadas o pas, i a un autre problèma. Quand la comuna anciana es pas caplòc de la comuna novèla, l'automatisme te plaça "vila occitana" e non pas "vilatge occitan", quina que siá la populacion (aquò, ba sabiái, mès aviái oblidat). Quand es caplòc, garda "vilatge occitan", mès plaça la populacion pus recenta de la comuna novèla, ambe la densitat de la comuna anciana en 2013. I a pas qu'una solucion, es de restablir l'infobox Comuna de França e alavetz la populacion e la densitat de 2013 demòran ad vitam eternam... Solament, me cal restablir normalament en introduccion la mencion de comuna occitana, que l'infobox "vila occitana" fasiá inutila. Francament, ai pas lo coratge de tornar sus totas mas ancianas modificacions, subretot qu'aquel daquòs de fusion de las comunas te dona tres còps mai de trabalh (e que n'ai un sadol). Amistats. Sivadon 1949 (d) 17 octobre de 2020 a 13.29 (UTC)

(Infobox seguida). Ara qu'ai la referéncia, ensajarai per veire s'aquela infobox es capabla de recebre totas las informacions que metèm normalament. Lo coneissiái pas. E mercés per ton ajuda tecnica.Sivadon 1949 (d) 18 octobre de 2020 a 18.06 (UTC)

Adiu Joan Francés. Ai ensajat. Pòdes gaitar a Lo Sigolés (comuna delegada caplòc) e a Flaujac (Perigòrd) (comuna delegada pas caplòc). Es un sistèma puslèu plegadís : ai poscut botar la populacion e la densitat ambe l'automatisme que sabes, ai ensajat ambe un gentilici fictiu... marcha. Manca la region istorica e lo parçan, la region oficiala tanben, l'intercomunalitat, totas causas que seràn dins l'article, mai que mai dins l'intro. Benlèu qu'en creant 7 nivèls d'administracion : division1... division 7, òm poiriá apondre la region administrativa e la comcom. Provisòriament, ai daissat la vièlha infobox sens l'actualizar. Me diràs se lo resultat es positiu e alavetz la tirarai. Amistats. Sivadon 1949 (d) 19 octobre de 2020 a 18.00 (UTC)

Tè, Joan Francés, pòdes gaitar a Senta Eulària d'Aimet e tanben sus ma pagina d'utilizaire. Ai modificat lo modèl Vila per tal d'i poder botar la region e l'intercom dins las comunas delegadas. E en mai, ai ajustat la region istorica, benlèu mal plaçada, mès aquò rai. Manca pas que lo cònsol delegat, mès per una fusion d'abans 2020, a partir de 2020 lo coneissèm pas en general. Amistats. Joan Pèire Sivadon. Sivadon 1949 (d) 21 octobre de 2020 a 23.10 (UTC)

Adiu Joan Francés. Dins l'exemple donat, la region istorica i èra, mès a la fin. Aviái páur de ba trebolar tot... cal dire que tot aquò es un trabalh menimós e penós. Veni de far una novèla version, al còp sus ma pagina d'utilizaire e sus Sent Júlia d'Aimet (comune delegada). Ai ara la region istorica en prumièr, seguida del parçan (aquò fa dejà 9 divisions). Per l'ancian canton, l'anciana region, semblariá que i agèsse una règla sus Wp que cal metre dins l'infobox pas que las causas actualas (n'i a un que me suprimèt sovent l'anciana region, donc...). Boti l'ancian canton (se s'escai, perqué de còps a pas cambiat) sus la meteissa linha. Sai pas çò qu'es |imatgeloc= . L'ai gardat. Amistats. Joan Pèire Sivadon. Sivadon 1949 (d) 22 octobre de 2020 a 09.18 (UTC)

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 20 October. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 21 October. It will be on all wikis from 22 October (calendar).

Future changes

• You will be able to read but not to edit the wikis for up to an hour on 27 October around 14:00 (UTC). It will probably be shorter than an hour. [153]
• In the AbuseFilter extension, the rmspecials() function will be updated soon so that it does not remove the "space" character. Wikis are advised to wrap all the uses of rmspecials() with rmwhitespace() wherever necessary to keep filters' behavior unchanged. You can use the search function on Special:AbuseFilter to locate its usage. [154]
• Some gadgets and user-scripts use the HTML div with the ID #jump-to-nav. This div will be removed soon. Maintainers should replace these uses with either #siteSub or #mw-content-text. A list of affected scripts is at the top of phab:T265373.

Accompagnement wikimédia France

Bonjour Joan,

Je vous écris cette fois pour vous demander si il serait possible de nous entretnir vous et moi seuls sur comment orienter nos efforts pour accompagner la communauté Occitane sur Wikipédia et Wikimédia et quelles sont les propositions les plus adaptés pour cela. De cette manière je pourrais m'en faire une idée quand bien même une réunion avec les contributeurs en Occitan devrait suivre. Aussi, si cette dernière n'a pas lieu d'être pour des raisons de logistique, au moins j'aurais eu un échange avec vous.

Bien à vous,

Équipe du Haut-Karabagh de football (version Française)

Bonjour, j'aurai besoin de votre aide s'il vous plait pour écrire une nouvelle partie de quelques lignes dans l'historique sur l'article de l'[155] Équipe du Haut-Karabagh de football sur la [156] Guerre de 2020 au Haut-Karabagh en utilisant ses 10 sources afin de rendre un peu plus admissible l'article de "Équipe du Haut-Karabagh de football". Malheureusement, je ne sais pas comment traité le sujet que je trouve intéressant. Cordialement.

Problems

• You will be able to read but not to edit the wikis for up to an hour on October 27 around 14:00 (UTC). It will probably be shorter than an hour. [157]
• Last week, links to "diffs" from mobile watchlists and recentchanges were linking to page-revisions instead of diffs. This has now been fixed. [158]

Changes later this week

• There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

Future changes

• Since the introduction of the interface administrators user group in 2018, administrators couldn’t view the deleted history of CSS/JS pages. Now they can. [159]
• There was a problem with the Change Tags. The software would apply the "Revertida" tag to any page actions such as page-protection changes if they came directly after a reverted edit. This has now been fixed for new edits. [160]
• The Reply tool will be offered as an opt-in Beta Feature on most Wikipedias in November. Another announcement will be made once the date is finalized. [161]

Recent changes

• You can no longer read Wikimedia wikis if your browser uses very old TLS. This is because it is a security problem for everyone. It could lead to downgrade attacks. Since October 29, 2020, users who use old TLS versions will not be able to connect to Wikimedia projects. A list of browser recommendations is available. All modern operating systems and browsers are always able to reach Wikimedia projects. [162]
• There is a new automatic tracking category available: Pages with non-numeric formatnum arguments. It collects pages which use the {{formatnum}} parser function with invalid (non-numeric) input, e.g. {{formatnum:TECHNEWS}}. Note that {{formatnum:123,456}} is also invalid input: as described in the documentation, the argument should be unformatted so that it can be reliably and correctly localised. The tracking category will help identify problematic usage and double-formatting. The new tracking category's name can be translated at translatewiki. [163]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from November 3. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from November 4. It will be on all wikis from November 5 (calendar).
• Administrators and stewards will be able to use a special page (Special:CreateLocalAccount) to force local account creation for a global account. This is useful when account creation is blocked for that user (by a block or a filter). [164]
• The Reply tool will be offered as an opt-in Beta Feature on most Wikipedias on November 4. This change excludes the English, Russian, and German-language Wikipedias, plus a few smaller Wikipedias with special circumstances. You can read the help page and the troubleshooting guide for more information. [165]

Future changes

• A discussion has been restarted about using a Unicode minus sign (− U+2212) in the output of {{formatnum}} when it is given a negative argument. [166]
• In the future IP addresses of unregistered users will not be shown for everyone. They will get an alias instead. There will be a new user right or an opt-in function for more vandal fighters to see the IPs of unregistered users. There would be some criteria for who gets the user right or opt-in. There will also be other new tools to help handle vandalism. This is early in the process and the developers are still collecting information from the communities before they suggest solutions.

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Changes later this week

• There is no new MediaWiki version this week.

Future changes

• You can see reference previews. This shows a preview of the footnote when you hover over it. This has been a beta feature. It will move out of beta and be enabled by default. There will be an option not to use it. The developers are looking for small or medium-sized wikis to be the first ones. You can let them know if your wiki is interested. [167]
• From November 16 the categories will not be sorted in order for a short time. This is because the developers are upgrading to a new version of the internationalisation library. They will use a script to fix the existing categories. This can take a few hours or a few days depending on how big the wiki is. You can read more. [168][169]

• Listings on category pages are sorted on each wiki for that language using a library. For a brief period on 16 November, changes to categories will not be sorted correctly for most languages. This is because the developers are upgrading to a new version of the library. They will then use a script to fix the existing categories. This will take a few hours or a few days depending on how big the wiki is. You can read more. [170][171]

Changes later this week

• If you merged two pages in a namespace where pages can't redirect this used to break the merge history. This will now be fixed. [172]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 17 November. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 18 November. It will be on all wikis from 19 November (calendar).

• The Wiki Replicas can be used for SQL queries. You can use Quarry, PAWS or other ways to do this. To make the Wiki Replicas stable there will be two changes. Cross-database JOINS will no longer work. You can also only query a database if you connect to it directly. This will happen in February 2021. If you think this affects you and you need help you can post on Phabricator or on Wikitech. [177]

Future changes

• You can propose and discuss what technical improvements should be done for geographic information. This could be coordinates, maps or other related things.
• Some wikis use LanguageConverter to switch between writing systems or variants of a language. This can only be done for the entire page. There will be a <langconvert> tag that can convert a piece of text on a page. [184]
• Oversighters and stewards can hide entries in Special:AbuseLog. They can soon hide multiple entries at once using checkboxes. This works like hiding normal edits. It will happen in early January. [185]

Recent changes

• You can choose to be reminded when you have not added an edit summary. This can be done in your preferences. This could conflict with the CAPTCHA. This has now been fixed. [186]
• You can link to specific log entries. You can get these links for example by clicking the timestamps in the log. Until now, such links to private log entries showed no entry even if you had permission to view private log entries. The links now show the entry. [187]
• Admins can use the abuse filter tool to automatically prevent bad edits. Three changes happened last week:
  • The filter editing interface now shows syntax errors while you type. This is similar to JavaScript pages. It also shows a warning for regular expressions that match the empty string. New warnings will be added later. [188]
  • Oversighters can now hide multiple filter log entries at once using checkboxes on Special:AbuseLog. This is how the usual revision deletion works. [189]
  • When a filter matches too many actions after it has been changed it is "throttled". The most powerful actions are disabled. This is to avoid many editors getting blocked when an administrator made a mistake. The administrator will now get a notification about this "throttle".
• There is a new tool to build new skins. You can also see existing skins. You can give feedback. [190]
• Bots using the API no longer watch pages automatically based on account preferences. Setting the watchlist to watch will still work. This is to reduce the size of the watchlist data in the database. [191]
• Scribunto's file metadata now includes length. [192]
• CSS and JavaScript code pages now have link anchors to line numbers. You can use wikilinks like w:en:MediaWiki:Common.js#L-50. [193]
• There was a new version of MediaWiki last week. You can read a detailed log of all 763 changes. Most of them are very small and will not affect you.

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 12 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 13 January. It will be on all wikis from 14 January (calendar).

• You will be able to read but not to edit Wikimedia Commons for a short time on 26 January at 07:00 (UTC). [195]
• MassMessage posts could be automatically timestamped in the future. This is because MassMessage senders can now send pages using MassMessage. Pages are more difficult to sign. If there are times when a MassMessage post should not be timestamped you can let the developers know.

Var

Adiu, Joan Francés e mercés per aquela excellente referéncia. Coma as vist, me soi servit d'un libre de 1798, que me sembla correspondre (caldriá verificar canton per canton...), mès que fasiá pas lo compte de las comunas dins cada canton. Et en cercant sul site, i a d'autras informacions. Lei Soliers : i aviá 4 comunas d'aquel nom : Soliers Vila, Soliers Pònt, Soliers Tocàs e Soliers Farleta, vengut La Farleta. Cada comuna individuala pòrta pas l'article Lei, de segur, es en parlant de l'ensemble que s'utiliza. Serai lèu arribat a la fin del departament e de segur, i a de causas que m'an embarrassat. Per exemple, lo TDF escriu Prouvènço e lo diccionari del CREO Provença. Aquela diferéncia entre e barrat e è dobèrt es pas una simpla diferéncia de grafia. Alavetz ? diferéncia entre Provença rodanenca e Provença interiora ? Purisme abusiu del diccionari del CREO ? Non sai. Ès abonat a País Gascons ? I a un article meu que conten la prumièra explicacion del nom de doás comunas : Baureg (*belo-redion) e Gardegan (la de Bénédicte Boyrie-Fénié per Baurech es erronèa : donariá *Bauretge). I a una explicacion concurrenta per Sistelhs, la grafia Talança e non pas *Talença, etc. Amistats. Sivadon 1949 (d) 27 genièr de 2021 a 11.58 (UTC)

Mercés. Òc-ben, 'fectivament, una règla un pauc c.lha, una règla per co... badinar los gascons, lengadocians, auvernhasses, etc, trebolar los reflèxes dels qu'aprenon lo provençal, per far créisser lo nombre dels dislexics qu'es encara tròp mendre. Me demandi se vau corregir tot çò qu'ai escrit... Caldriá, mès me fa aisse. Amistat.Sivadon 1949 (d) 27 genièr de 2021 a 15.48 (UTC)

Evenòs es un nom plan polit

En començant per una evocacion de la maire de tots los umans e en s'acabant per una finala d'aparéncia gascona, Evenòs es un nom plan polit, plen d'una leugieretat que fa pensar a l'aire mediterranèu a la prima. Malurosament, es un nom qu'existís pas e, çò pièger, qu'a jamai existit ! Lo nom del vilatge que dona son nom a la comuna es donc Évenos en francés, mès localament Nèbra o Èbra, lo primièr pus contemporanèu. Aquels dos darrèrs noms son sovent utilizats per designar la comuna e lo gentilici francés es Ébrosiens. A primièra vista, Evenòs, causit coma títol a l'article de nòstra Wikipèdia, sembla un nom diferent de Nèbra o Èbra, mès es pas dificil tanpauc de provar qu'es en realitat lo meteis nom. Lo nom que lo TDF dona es Èbro (TDF, vol. 1, p. 835). Dauzat pena un pauc a donar una etimologia, per el aparentada ambe la d'Evaus, mès fornís la fòrma Evena de 1141, que cal legir de segur Èvena o Évena per comprene la seguida. Es donc un proparoxitòn e lo provençal, situat près de l'italian, gardèt aquela classa de mots un pauc pus longtemps que lo lengadocian o lo gascon. Lo nom èra demorat çò qu'èra cap als sègles XIV o XV e la prononciacion venguèt Èveno o Éveno. Un escriba de la dinastia angevina causiguèt d'escriure, probable, Eveno (auriá remplaçat la finala per -e se s'agissiá d'un paroxitòn), un autre ajustèt una -s finala analogica per far pas tant patoès; aquí Évenos salvat per l'eternitat, mès probable que jamai foguèt pas prononciat atal. Es pas aquò l'essencial, qu'es lo passatge de proparoxitòn a paroxitòn. Se Helena donèt Elna (66), Èvena o Évena podián pas donar Èvna o Évna : la seguida v + n es estrangièra a la lenga e de prononciacion malaisida. Dins aquel cas, una rotacizacion de n pòsttonica, pincada après l'accent tonic, règla la question (cf. lo sufixe -ànicum que menèt a -argue). Lo nom auriá poscut se mudar simplament en *Èvra, mès la fragilitat de la posicion après l'accent tonic, la prononciacion encara pus aisida menèron a Èbra. Dins « vau a-n-Èbra », una consonanta permet d'evitar l'iatus, aquela consonanta s'aglutinèt e aquí Nèbra, vengut probablament majoritari entre lo sègle XIX (Mistral) e los sègles XX e XXI, mès lo gentilici francés se mudèt pas en *Nebrosiens. Aquí l'explica personala, mès me doni pas lo dret de l'impausar a l'enciclopedia. Nèbra o Èbra (lo segond ambe la caucion de Mistral), cresi qu'aquò's la sola causida. Mès... Amistats. Sivadon 1949 (d) 29 genièr de 2021 a 14.03 (UTC)

Problèma reglat. Ai presa la responsabilitat. Se i a de criticas... veirem. Sivadon 1949 (d) 8 febrièr de 2021 a 19.39 (UTC)

Problems

• IPv6 addresses were written in lowercase letters in diffs. This caused dead links since Special:Contributions only accepted uppercase letters for the IPs. This has been fixed. [199]

Changes later this week

• You can soon use Wikidata to link to pages on the multilingual Wikisource. [200]
• Often editors use a "non-breaking space" to make a gap between two items when reading but still show them together. This can be used to avoid a line break. You will now be able to add new ones via the special character tool in the 2010, 2017, and visual editors. The character will be shown in the visual editor as a space with a grey background. [201][202]
• Wikis use abuse filters to stop bad edits being made. Filter maintainers can now use syntax like 1.2.3.4 - 1.2.3.55 as well as the 1.2.3.4/27 syntax for IP ranges. [203]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 2 February. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 3 February. It will be on all wikis from 4 February (calendar).

Future changes

• Minerva is the skin Wikimedia wikis use for mobile traffic. When a page is protected and you can't edit it you can normally read the source wikicode. This doesn't work on Minerva on mobile devices. This is being fixed. Some text might overlap. This is because your community needs to update MediaWiki:Protectedpagetext to work on mobile. You can read more. [204][205]
• Cloud VPS and Toolforge will change the IP address they use to contact the wikis. The new IP address will be 185.15.56.1. This will happen on February 8. You can read more.

• You can see edits to chosen pages on Special:Watchlist. You can add pages to your watchlist on every wiki you like. The GlobalWatchlist extension will come to Meta on 11 February. There you can see entries on watched pages on different wikis on the same page. The new watchlist will be found on Special:GlobalWatchlist on Meta. You can choose which wikis to watch and other preferences on Special:GlobalWatchlistSettings on Meta. You can watch up to five wikis. [207]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 February. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 February. It will be on all wikis from 11 February (calendar).

Future changes

• When admins protect pages the form will use the OOUI look. Special:Import will also get the new look. This will make them easier to use on mobile phones. [208][209]
• Some services will not work for a short period of time from 07:00 UTC on 17 February. There might be problems with new short links, new translations, new notifications, adding new items to your reading lists or recording email bounces. This is because of database maintenance. [210]
• Last week Tech News reported that the IP address Cloud VPS and Toolforge use to contact the wikis will change on 8 February. This is delayed. It will happen later instead. [211]

• La coloration syntaxique fonctionne désormais avec d’autres langages : Futhark (en anglais), Graphviz/DOT, CDDL et AMDGPU. [216]

Problèmes

• Modifier une frise chronologique pouvait faire disparaitre tout son contenu, en raison d’un bogue qui a été corrigé. Il se peut que vous deviez modifier à nouveau la frise chronologique pour qu’elle s’affiche correctement. [217]

Changements à venir cette semaine

• La nouvelle version de MediaWiki sera installée sur les wikis de test et sur MediaWiki.org à partir du 23 février. Elle sera installée sur tous les wikis hormis la majorité des Wikipédias le 24 février et enfin sur toutes les Wikipédias restantes le 25 février (calendrier).

Intervencions d'un inconscient

Adiu Joan Francés. Avèm reagit collectivament a las modificacions de Jejesga, mès aqueste cambiava pas qu'un ç en s. Cresi qu'avèm pièger ara e malurosament ven de l'IEO. Lo nommat Geoccitania implanta pertot la "referéncia" de son organisme e de còps se permet de tornar nomenar de noms de comunas. Aquò rai, pòt tombar just per azard, mès lo "trabalh" de topoc a tres defauts redibitòris: primièrament, son pas anats verificar sus plaça coma se deu, segondament, coneisson pas res a la gramatica istorica, tresenament, van contre de trabalhs publicats redigits per d'autors serioses. E n'ajustarai un quatren, es que sabon pas que sabon pas (e fan pas res per saber quicòm). Vòli pas reprochar a digun çò que sap pas (personalament, ambe tot çò que sabi pas, quitament dins aquel domeni, se poiriá escriure un gròs libre), çò que repròchi es la pigresa e la pretencion. Qualques exemples. Le Freney-d'Oisans, in Fraxeneto al sègle XI, un equivalent dels Fraissenet, Fraissinet, contractat en francés et benlèu en occitan. Ne faguèron un Lo Frenac (sufixe celtic -acon !) e agèron pas vergonha de cambiar lo títol. Villard-Reculas: i a una fòrma anciana en -ati e se la latinizacion es plan faita, lo nom s'acaba per -s o puslèu per -ç. Ne faguèron Lo Vilar Reculat. Perqué ? perqué i a un -t- dins la fòrma anciana. Confondon sovent lo latin et l'occitan, o cal dire. Alaug (Allauch en francés), fòrma anciana Alaudi, pr'amor del d ne faguèron un Alaud, etc. Un exemple dins un autre genre : Sèrras Castèth, grafia de Grosclaude, es per els un Sèrras deth Castèth. L'article contractat es imaginari e se n'i aviá un, seriá pas deth, mès deu. Te sovenes qu'Olivier Véran voliá vaccinar 70 milions de franceses, mès ambe lo metòde topoc, soi capable de crear lo nom de 70 milions de comunas occitanas. Pel moment, escrivi un ^{[ref. insufisenta]} a caduna de lors preconizacions, quand i a una referéncia scientifica, la meti a la plaça de lor estront, quand tòrnan nommar una comuna, ambe tot çò que sabi de lor incompeténcia, de lor nullitat absoluda, considèri que soi en dret de tornar botar l'ancian nom. Sovent, son de comunas nòrd-occitanas e sabèm pas lo nom autentic; gardar lo nom francés es un biais de reconéisser que sabèm pas lo nom, puslèu que d'enganar lo monde en daissant un nom imaginari. Wikipèdia es una enciclopèdia, pas un obrador literari. Se son pas contents, ai una pagina de discussion. Amistats. Joan Pèire Sivadon. Sivadon 1949 (d) 7 març de 2021 a 13.14 (UTC)

Tech News: 2021-10

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• Section translation now works on Bengali Wikipedia. It helps mobile editors translate sections of articles. It will come to more wikis later. The first focus is active wikis with a smaller number of articles. You can test it and leave feedback.
• Flagged revisions now give admins the review right. [220]
• When someone links to a Wikipedia article on Twitter this will now show a preview of the article. [221]

Problems

• Many graphs have JavaScript errors. Graph editors can check their graphs in their browser's developer console after editing. [222]

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 March. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 March. It will be on all wikis from 11 March (calendar).
• The New Discussion tool will soon be a new discussion tools beta feature for on most Wikipedias. The goal is to make it easier to start new discussions. [223]

Future changes

• There will be a number of changes to make it easier to work with templates. Some will come to the first wikis in March. Other changes will come to the first wikis in June. This is both for those who use templates and those who create or maintain them. You can read more.
• Reference Previews will become a default feature on some wikis on 17 March. They will share a setting with Page Previews. If you prefer the Reference Tooltips or Navigation-Popups gadget you can keep using them. If so Reference Previews won't be shown. [224][225]
• New JavaScript-based functions will not work in Internet Explorer 11. This is because Internet Explorer is an old browser that doesn't work with how JavaScript is written today. Everything that works in Internet Explorer 11 today will continue working in Internet Explorer for now. You can read more.

Recent changes

• Wikis that are part of the desktop improvements project can now use a new search function. The desktop improvements and the new search will come to more wikis later. You can also test it early.

• You will be able to read but not edit 12 wikis for a short period of time on 23 March at 06:00 (UTC). This could take 30 minutes but will probably be much faster.

À propos

Chère Joan Francés,

Peut-être trouverez-vous un peu d'intérêt (et du temps) à traduire cet article en occitan?

Comunas gasconas e pas biarnesas del 64

Adiu Joan Francés. T'escrivi perqué ès pus ancian que ieu dins Wikipèdia. A temps passat se decidiguèt de separar las comunas dels Pirenèus Atlantics en Comunas deus Pirenèus Atlantics en Bascoat e Comunas deus Pirenèus Atlantics en Bearn. Lo Bascoat es definit siá per la comunautat d'aglomeracion, siá per las tres províncias de Labord, Baisha Navarra e Sola. Sai pas per quina rason faguèron atal, perqué en realitat i a de comunas gasconas (de còps mixtas recentament, coma BAB, o benlèu pus ancianament) que vestiguèron de l'infobox verda o que classèron en Bascoat. De còps l'infobox es occitana, d'autres còps es basca (ex : Gestars). Me sembla pas una bona idèia d'abandonar nòstres compatriòtas, mès vòli pas anar contra de decisions collectivas. Prepausi 3 categorias :1) Bascoat, 2) Bearn, 3) autas comunas gasconas e prepausi tanben de botar sistematicament l'infobox occitana per las comunas gasconas (aquel punt es sense problèmas perqué las que son vestidas de verd son paucas). Qué ne pensas ? Doble d'aquel messatge mandat a Jiròni. Amistats. Sivadon 1949 (d) 20 març de 2021 a 01.19 (UTC)

Tech News: 2021-12

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• There is a Wikipedia app for KaiOS phones. They don't have a touch screen so readers navigate with the phone keys. There is now a simulator so you can see what it looks like.
• The reply tool and new discussion tool are now available as the "Eines de discussió" beta feature in almost all wikis except German Wikipedia.

Problems

• You will be able to read but not edit twelve wikis for a short period of time on 23 de març at 06:00 (UTC). This can also affect password changes, logging in to new wikis, global renames and changing or confirming emails. This could take 30 minutes but will probably be much faster.

Changes later this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 23 March. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 24 March. It will be on all wikis from 25 March (calendar).
• Syntax highlighting colours will change to be easier to read. This will soon come to the first wikis. [230]

Future changes

• Flagged revisions will no longer have multiple tags like "tone" or "depth". It will also only have one tier. This was changed because very few wikis used these features and they make the tool difficult to maintain. [231][232]
• Gadgets and user scripts can access variables about the current page in JavaScript. In 2015 this was moved from wg* to mw.config. wg* will soon no longer work. [233]

Dernières actualités techniques de la communauté technique Wikimédia. N’hésitez pas à informer les autres utilisateurs de ces changements. Certains changements ne vous concernent pas. D’autres traductions sont disponibles.

Changements récents

• Certains très vieux fr:navigateur web ne fonctionnent pas bien avec les wikis Wikimedia. Du vieux code pour les navigateurs qui étaient pris en charge va être retiré. Cela peut poser souci dans ces navigateurs. [234]
• Les flux IRC des changements récents ont été déplacés vers un nouveau serveur. Assurez-vous que tous les outils se reconnectent automatiquement à irc.wikimedia.org et pas à un serveur spécifique. Les utilisateurs devraient aussi envisager de passer à EventStreams qui est plus moderne. [235]

Problèmes

• Lorsque vous déplacez une page que beaucoup de contributeurs ont dans leur liste de suivi, l’historique peut être divisée. Parfois, il devient également impossible de déplacer la page à nouveau pendant un moment. Cela vient d’un problème dans la file d’attente des travaux. [236]
• Certaines pages traductibles sur Meta ne pouvaient pas être modifiées. Cela était dû à un bogue dans l’outil de traduction. La nouvelle version de MediaWiki a été retardée à cause de problèmes tels que celui-ci. [237][238]

Changements à venir cette semaine

• La nouvelle version de MediaWiki sera installée sur les wikis de test et sur MediaWiki.org à partir du 30 mars. Elle sera installée sur tous les wikis hormis la majorité des Wikipédias le 31 mars et enfin sur toutes les Wikipédias restantes le 1 avril (calendrier).

Dernières actualités techniques de la communauté technique Wikimédia. N’hésitez pas à informer les autres utilisateurs de ces changements. Certains changements ne vous concernent pas. D’autres traductions sont disponibles.

Changements récents

• Les rédacteurs peuvent réduire une partie d'un article afin que vous deviez cliquer dessus pour la voir. Lorsque vous cliquez sur un lien vers une section à l'intérieur d'un contenu réduit, celui-ci se développe pour afficher la section. Le navigateur fera défiler l'article jusqu'à la section. Auparavant, ces liens ne fonctionnaient pas si vous ne développiez pas d'abord manuellement le contenu. [239]

Changements à venir cette semaine

• L’API de Citoid utilisera, par exemple, 2010-12-XX à la place de 2010-12 pour les dates avec un mois mais pas de jour. Le but est d’éviter que 2010-12, qui désigne Décembre 2010, soit confondu avec 2010-2012. Ce format est dit « de niveau 1 », par rapport au « niveau 0 », dans la norme sur le format étendu des dates et heures. [240]
• La nouvelle version de MediaWiki sera installée sur les wikis de test et sur MediaWiki.org à partir du 6 avril. Elle sera installée sur tous les wikis hormis la majorité des Wikipédias le 7 avril et enfin sur toutes les Wikipédias restantes le 8 avril (calendrier).

Changements à venir

• PAWS peut maintenant se connecter aux nouvelles répliques de wiki. Les requêtes JOINS entre bases de données ne fonctionneront plus à partir du 28 avril. Une nouvelle façon de connecter les base de données existe. Jusqu’au 28 avril, les deux manières de lier les bases de données fonctionneront. Si vous pensez que cela vous affecte et que vous avez besoin d’aide, publiez sur Phabricator ou sur Wikitech.
