New way to edit wikitext

Summary: There's a new opt-in Beta Feature of a wikitext mode for the visual editor. Please go try it out.

We in the Wikimedia Foundation's Editing department are responsible for making editing better for all our editors, new and experienced alike. We've been slowly improving the visual editor based on feedback, user tests, and feature requests. However, that doesn't work for all our user needs: whether you need to edit a wikitext talk page, create a template, or fix some broken reference syntax, sometimes you need to use wikitext, and many experienced editors prefer it.

Consequently, we've planned a "wikitext mode" for the visual editor for a long time. It provides as much of the visual editor's features as possible, for those times that you need or want wikitext. It has the same user interface as the visual editor, including the same toolbar across the top with the same buttons. It provides access to the citoid service for formatting citations, integrated search options for inserting images, and the ability to add new templates in a simple dialog. Like in the visual editor, if you paste in formatted text copied from another page, then formatting (such as bolding) will automatically be converted into wikitext.

All wikis now have access to this mode as a Beta Feature. When enabled, it replaces your existing wikitext editor everywhere. If you don't like it, you can reverse this at any time by turning off the Beta Feature in your preferences. We don't want to surprise anyone, so it's strictly an opt-in-only Beta Feature. It won't switch on automatically for anyone, even if you have previously checked the box to "Activar automaticament totas las novèlas foncionalitats en bèta".

The new wikitext edit mode is based on the visual editor, so it requires JavaScript (as does the current wikitext editor). It doesn't work with gadgets that have only been designed for the older one (and vice versa), so some users will miss gadgets they find important. We're happy to work with gadget authors to help them update their code to work with both editors. We're not planning to get rid of the current main wikitext editor on desktop in the foreseeable future. We're also not going to remove the existing ability to edit plain wikitext without JavaScript. Finally, though it should go without saying, if you prefer to continue using the current wikitext editor, then you may so do.

This is an early version, and we'd love to know what you think so we can make it better. Please leave feedback about the new mode on the feedback page. You may write comments in any language. Thank you.

Use French for the interface when no translation is available

Please join the discussion. --Nemo bis (d) 28 decembre de 2016 a 19.57 (UTC)

Per de rasons istoricas, utilizar lo francés, en plaça de l'anglés, me sembla pas una idèa bòna sus aquest wikipèdia. --Nicolas Eynaud (d) 29 decembre de 2016 a 07.58 (UTC)

Thanks. gerrit:332544 (Catalan) was approved and will reach this wiki on the 26th. gerrit:329391 (French) is still open. Nemo bis (d) 24 genièr de 2017 a 06.42 (UTC)

Thanks Nemo for the update. — Joan Francés Blanc (me´n parlar) 24 genièr de 2017 a 15.21 (UTC)

Clean-up finished

Today I've finished the radical clean-up of ocwiki. All articles without content that have been created by bot years ago are now deleted. Best regards and a happy new year to all users of Occitan Wikipedia. --Holder (d) 3 genièr de 2017 a 09.37 (UTC)

règlas per la transcripcion del chinés ?

Bonjorn a totes,

Me demandi se i a enluòc una règla per la transcripcion del chinés (mandarin), o benlèu d'autras lengas orientalas sus la Wikipèdia ? M'auriá agradat escriure per exemple un esbòç en:Qi, mas sai pas tròp cossí se deuriá apelar (e mai ai pas trobat aqueste mot dins cap diccionari occitan). En general cresètz que se pòdon aplicar los meteisses principis que en francés ? 109.215.169.84 (d) 22 genièr de 2017 a 08.28 (UTC)

Adieussiatz, la carta linguistica ne parla pas, mas per las lengas màgers i a ara d'estandards internacionals: per ex. en chinés lo pinyin, o en corean la romanizacion revisada. Lo romaji pel japonés es tanben pro espandit. Pel tai, es pas evident que la romanizacion "internacionala" es luènh de la romanizacion "nacionala" (RTGS), per ex. lo rèire-rei Phumiphon Adunyadet qu'èra "internacionalizat" en Bhumibol Adulyadej... Me sembla logic d'afavorir la causida de cada pòble e de se sarrar de la RTGS. — Joan Francés Blanc (me´n parlar) 22 genièr de 2017 a 16.55 (UTC)

Mercés per ta responsa. Alara dins lo cas que mencionavi, s'ai plan comprés, l'article se deuriá nommar qì (transcripcion en pinyin se m'engani pas) ? Ai paur de far de bestiesas perque coneissi pas grand causa d'aquelas lengas mas cresi qu'es damatge de pas aver d'article sus de nocions tan importantas que me cresi capable d'explicar çaquelà. Vau ensajar de far un esboç pichonèl, veirem ben... --109.215.169.84 (d) 22 genièr de 2017 a 17.33 (UTC)

Messatge depausat per un utilizaire anonim (85.181.63.94) e pas signat. — Joan Francés Blanc (me´n parlar) 24 genièr de 2017 a 08.27 (UTC)

Adieussiatz. Vèni de senhalar a Holder qu'avèm votat e acceptat de cargar en local los imatges de blasons e de logos que son "copyright" mas pòdon èsser afichats segond las règlas del "fair use". Retipam aital los usatges de las wp francesa (logos de regions) e italiana (escuts de comunas). Per cargar los imatges EN LOCAL (e pas sus Commons que serián escafats), vos cal anar sus aquela pagina. — Joan Francés Blanc (me´n parlar) 24 genièr de 2017 a 08.20 (UTC)

But you must use the files, otherwise there is no fair use. And you must link to the source and mention the author. Fichièr:Olivetta San Michele-Stemma.png which you undeleted is not used anywhere. 85.180.90.118 (d) 24 genièr de 2017 a 13.12 (UTC)

It is on the Auřivéta_San_Michèe page, but the infobox is not working properly. So I just added another image on the same page. We'd reeally appreciate to discuss with an authentified user, by the way (and eventually to get help on fixing our infoboxes). — Joan Francés Blanc (me´n parlar) 24 genièr de 2017 a 14.53 (UTC)

Intercultur

Hello

Between 1 and 28 February is organized the Intercultur contest, consisting of translating Wikipedia articles among the various languages spoken in Spain.

In the Iberian peninsula many languages have their own version of Wikipedia, including Aragonese, Asturian, Castilian, Catalan, Basque, Extremadurian, Galician and Occitan. The contest will therefore consist of translating as many articles as possible into these eight languages from those suggested in the starting list.

To participate in the contest it is necessary to have an account on Wikipedia and sign on the contest page. In this you also can find the list of proposed articles and the scoring rules. Best. --Rubén Ojeda (WMES) (d) 1 febrièr de 2017 a 09.22 (UTC)

Comunautat d'Aglomeracion deu País Basco - CAPB

Hi. Bon dia / Egun on. I'm a user of Basque Wikipedia, so sorry for don't speak gascon, and my french level is basic (A1), so I'll write in english. Comunautat d'Aglomeracion deu País Basco - CAPB / Euskal Herriko Hirigune Elkargoa - EHHE has been created in Baiona with the villages of Nothern Basque Country on 1 January 2017, and one of the language of that institution is gascon. So, I think that it will be fine that the Occitan Wikipedian would have an article of that institution. Adiu / Agur. Euskaldunaa (d) 2 febrièr de 2017 a 03.59 (UTC)

Egun on. The article has been created. Agur. — Joan Francés Blanc (me´n parlar) 2 febrièr de 2017 a 07.10 (UTC)

Modèle e Modul

Adissiatz,
Soi a actualizar los modèls e los moduls de nòstra wikipèdia ; aquò pòt provocar, temporàriament qualques problèmas. Vos mercegi de vòstra paciéncia e vòstra venvolença.

Òc-a-ton

Ai legit dins la premsa especializada que qualques unes de vautres avián participat al wikiton de l'Inòc. Me podètz dire çò que n'avètz pensat e cossí s'es passat, svp ?
Ai legit las interrogacions d'unes wikipedians nòstres que s'estonavan que la comunautat nòstra foguèsse pas consultada per l'organizacion d'aquel eveniment, ni per l'Inòc, ni per l'associacion Wikimédia France, qualques reaccions èran regdas quitament.
Ai lo sentiment que nos caldriá prene contacte amb Wikimédia per evitar qu'aquò se reproduguèsse e per melhor contrarotlar l'utilizacion, la difusion e la valorizacion del trabalh nòstre. L'idèa, evocada mai d'un còp d'una antena occitana de Wikimédia meritariá d'èsser repausada. Qué ne pensatz ? --Cedric31 (d) 5 febrièr de 2017 a 11.01 (UTC)

Adieu Cedric. Faguèri una presentacion de la wikipèdia occitana (de luènh, amb Framatalk). Me sembla francament que Wikimédia France viu un pauc sa vida d'associacion subvencionada e ensaja de se far vesedoira cap a las lengas "regionalas". Vesi pas clarament çò que nos pòt portar per ara. Ai quitament pas idèa de las convencions que signèron amb l'InOc o lo Congrès. Qu'es pas Wikimèdia France que fa lo trabalh sus la Wikipèdia occitana. Ni tanpauc los organismes qu'organizèron la trobada. Alara, puslèu que de crear una enenca associacion, seriá pas melhor d'utilizar Tot en Òc per çò faire? Amistats. — Joan Francés Blanc (me´n parlar) 7 febrièr de 2017 a 17.40 (UTC)

En tant qu'Administrator-Burocrata, ai escrit a Wikimédia France per lor demandar qualques explicacions, e en particular per ne saber mai sul contengut de la convencion amb l'INÒC que ne sabèm pas res... Lor ai demandat d'evitar, d'ara enlà, d'organizar causas a prepaus de nòstres projèctes sens nos consultar, ai prepausat que nòstra comunautat siá representada al CA de lor asso per facilitar los escambis... Nos prepausan un rencontre a Tolosa, i a de volontaris. Vos teni al fial. --Cedric31 (d) 17 febrièr de 2017 a 12.34 (UTC)

Adissiatz. M'an respondut que nos podián rencontrar e nos comunicar la convencion signada amb l'INOC e lo CPLO. I a monde interessats per los rencontrar ? Siquenon, de qué fasèm ? Reavii la discussion de qualques ans fa sus la creacion d'una asso wikimèdia occitana ? Coralament --Cedric31 (d) 23 febrièr de 2017 a 15.46 (UTC)

ːAdissiatz, Wikimedia France m'a recontactat per me far veire la convencion signada amb los partenaris de l'octon. La pòdi far passar a los que serián interessats. Coralament --Cedric31 (d) 10 abril de 2017 a 06.20 (UTC)

Review of initial updates on Wikimedia movement strategy process

Note: Apologies for cross-posting and sending in English. Message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki.

The Wikimedia movement is beginning a movement-wide strategy discussion, a process which will run throughout 2017. For 15 years, Wikimedians have worked together to build the largest free knowledge resource in human history. During this time, we've grown from a small group of editors to a diverse network of editors, developers, affiliates, readers, donors, and partners. Today, we are more than a group of websites. We are a movement rooted in values and a powerful vision: all knowledge for all people. As a movement, we have an opportunity to decide where we go from here.

This movement strategy discussion will focus on the future of our movement: where we want to go together, and what we want to achieve. We hope to design an inclusive process that makes space for everyone: editors, community leaders, affiliates, developers, readers, donors, technology platforms, institutional partners, and people we have yet to reach. There will be multiple ways to participate including on-wiki, in private spaces, and in-person meetings. You are warmly invited to join and make your voice heard.

The immediate goal is to have a strategic direction by Wikimania 2017 to help frame a discussion on how we work together toward that strategic direction.

Regular updates are being sent to the Wikimedia-l mailing list, and posted on Meta-Wiki. Beginning with this message, monthly reviews of these updates will be sent to this page as well. Sign up to receive future announcements and monthly highlights of strategy updates on your user talk page.

Here is a review of the updates that have been sent so far:

• Update 1 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (15 December 2016)
  • Introduction to process and information about budget spending resolution to support it
• Update 2 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (23 December 2016)
  • Start of search for Lead Architect for movement strategy process
• Update 3 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (8 January 2017)
  • Plans for strategy sessions at upcoming Wikimedia Conference 2017
• Update 4 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (11 January 2017)
  • Introduction of williamsworks
• Update 5 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (2 February 2017)
  • The core movement strategy team, team tracks being developed, introduction of the Community Process Steering Committee, discussions at WikiIndaba conference 2017 and the Wikimedia movement affiliates executive directors gathering in Switzerland
• Update 6 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (10 February 2017)
  • Tracks A & B process prototypes and providing feedback, updates on development of all four Tracks

More information about the movement strategy is available on the Meta-Wiki 2017 Wikimedia movement strategy portal.

We invite you to join the movement strategy conversation (now through April 15)

This message, "We invite you to join the movement strategy conversation (now through April 15)", was sent through multiple channels by Gregory Varnum on 15 and 16 of March 2017 to village pumps, affiliate talk pages, movement mailing lists, and MassMessage groups. A similar message was sent by Nicole Ebber to organized groups and their mailing lists on 15 of March 2017. This version of the message is available for translation and documentation purposes

Dear Wikimedians/Wikipedians:

Today we are starting a broad discussion to define Wikimedia's future role in the world and develop a collaborative strategy to fulfill that role. You are warmly invited to join the conversation.

There are many ways to participate, by joining an existing conversation or starting your own:

Track A (organized groups): Discussions with your affiliate, committee or other organized group (these are groups that support the Wikimedia movement).

Track B (individual contributors): On Meta or your local language or project wiki.

This is the first of three conversations, and it will run between now and April 15. The purpose of cycle 1 is to discuss the future of the movement and generate major themes around potential directions. What do we want to build or achieve together over the next 15 years?

We welcome you, as we create this conversation together, and look forward to broad and diverse participation from all parts of our movement.

• Find out more about the movement strategy process
• Learn more about volunteering to be a Discussion Coordinator

Sincerely,

Nicole Ebber (Track A Lead), Jaime Anstee (Track B Lead), & the engagement support teams

La petite équipe de contributeurs bénévoles qui organise cette deuxième édition aurait besoin d'un logo générique pour la Wikiconvention, et de sa déclinaison pour cette édition. Vos propositions de logos sont les bienvenues sur Meta-Wiki. Elles peuvent être déposées jusqu'au mercredi 19 avril (via cette catégorie Commons).

Vous êtes aussi invités à voter pour votre logo préféré, jusqu'au 26 avril.

Merci beaucoup pour votre aide !

Start of the 2017 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees elections

Please accept our apologies for cross-posting this message. This message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

On behalf of the Election Committee,
Katie Chan, Chair, Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee

Read-only mode for 20 to 30 minutes on 19 April and 3 May

Read this message in another language • Mercé de nos ajudar a traduire dins vòstra lenga

The Wikimedia Foundation will be testing its secondary data center in Dallas. This will make sure that Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to conduct a planned test. This test will show whether they can reliably switch from one data center to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.

They will switch all traffic to the secondary data center on Wednesday, 19 April 2017. On Wednesday, 3 May 2017, they will switch back to the primary data center.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop during those two switches. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.

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

• You will not be able to edit for approximately 20 to 30 minutes on Wednesday, 19 April and Wednesday, 3 May. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Thursday 20 April and Thursday 4 May).
• If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

Other effects:

• Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped. Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped.
• There will be code freezes for the weeks of 17 April 2017 and 1 May 2017. Non-essential code deployments will not happen.

This project may be postponed if necessary. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this. Please share this information with your community. /User:Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk)

Wikidata description editing in the Wikipedia Android app

Wikidata description editing is a new experiment being rolled out on the Wikipedia app for Android. While this primarily impacts Wikidata, the changes are also addressing a concern about the mobile versions of Wikipedia, so that mobile users will be able to edit directly the descriptions shown under the title of the page and in the search results.

We began by rolling out this feature several weeks ago to a pilot group of Wikipedias (Russian, Hebrew, and Catalan), and have seen very positive results including numerous quality contributions in the form of new and updated descriptions, and a low rate of vandalism.

We are now ready for the next phase of rolling out this feature, which is to enable it in a few days for all Wikipedias except the top ten by usage within the app (i.e. except English, German, Italian, French, Spanish, Japanese, Dutch, Portuguese, Turkish, and Chinese). We will enable the feature for those languages instead at some point in the future, as we closely monitor user engagement with our expanded set of pilot communities. As always, if have any concerns, please reach out to us on wiki at the talk page for this project or by email at reading@wikimedia.org. Thanks!

New Page previews feature

New Page previews feature

Read this message in another language • Mercé de nos ajudar a traduire dins vòstra lenga

Hello,

The Reading web team at the Wikimedia Foundation has been working to enable Page previews, a beta feature known previously as Hovercards, as opt-in behavior for logged-in users and the default behavior for logged-out users across Wikipedia projects. Page previews provide a preview of any linked article, giving readers a quick understanding of a related article without leaving the current page. For this project, we are expecting to collect feedback over the following few weeks and tentatively enable the feature in early May, 2017.

A quick note on the implementation:

• For logged-in users who are not currently testing out the beta feature, Page previews will be off by default. Users may turn them on from their user preferences page.
• For logged-out users, the feature will be on by default. Users may disable it at any time by selecting the setting cog available in each preview.
• For users of the Navigation popups gadget, you will not be able to turn on the Page previews feature while using navigational popups. If you would like to try out the Page preview feature, make sure to first turn Navigation popups off prior to turning Page previews on.

You can read more about the feature and the tests we used to evaluate performance, try it out by enabling it from the beta features page, and leave feedback or questions on the talk page.

Thank you, MediaWiki message delivery (d) 19 abril de 2017 a 16.52 (UTC)

Beta Feature Two Column Edit Conflict View

From May 9, the Two Column Edit Conflict View will be available as a beta feature on all wikis. The Two Column Edit Conflict View is a new interface for the edit conflict resolution page. It highlights differences between the editor's and the conflicting changes to make it easy to copy and paste pieces of the text and resolve the conflict. The feature fulfils a request for a more user-friendly edit conflict resolution from the German Community’s Technical Wishlist. Everyone is invited to test the feature and we hope that it will serve you well!

RevisionSlider

RevisionSlider will be available as a default feature for all users on all wikis from May 17. The RevisionSlider adds a slider view to the diff page so that you can easily move between revisions. The slider view is collapsed by default, and will load by clicking on it. It can also be turned off entirely in the user preferences. RevisionSlider has been a default feature on German, Arabic and Hebrew Wikipedia for 6 months and a beta feature on all wikis for 8 months. The feature fulfills a wish from the German Community’s Technical Wishlist. Thanks to everyone who tested RevisionSlider and gave valuable feedback to improve the feature! We hope that RevisionSlider will continue to serve you well in your work.

New notification when a page is connected to Wikidata

Hello all,

(Mercé de nos ajudar a traduire dins vòstra lenga)

The Wikidata development team is about to deploy a new feature on all Wikipedias. It is a new type of notification (via Echo, the notification system you see at the top right of your wiki when you are logged in), that will inform the creator of a page, when this page is connected to a Wikidata item.

You may know that Wikidata provides a centralized system for all the interwikilinks. When a new page is created, it should be connected to the corresponding Wikidata item, by modifying this Wikidata item. With this new notification, editors creating pages will be informed when another editor connects this page to Wikidata.

This feature will be deployed on May 30th on all the Wikipedias, excepting English, French and German. This feature will be disable by default for existing editors, and enabled by default for new editors.

This is the first step of the deployments, the Wikipedias and other Wikimedia projects will follow in the next months.

If you have any question, suggestion, please let me know by pinging me. You can also follow and leave a comment on the Phabricator ticket.

Thanks go to Matěj Suchánek who developed this feature!

m:Requests for comment/Global centralnotice for the blockade of the Turkish government

Hi, you are invited to participate in the discussion on the proposal to make a banner through m: centralnotice to inform more people around the world about what the Turkish government has done about Wikipedia, ie all the language versions of Wikipedia are You are obscured, so in Turkey it is impossible to view the * .wikipedia.org site. To hope that the Turkish government will remove the block, it is necessary to raise awareness of this fact around the world because it is important to succeed in this mission because Wikipedia can not be seen in Turkey. With this message also for those interested, I invite him to sign the Wikimedian appeal.

If you have any questions or questions do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks best regards. --Samuele2002 (Talk!) 8 de junh de de 2017 a 05.30 (UTC)

Accessible editing buttons

The MediaWiki developers have been slowly improving the accessibility of the user interface. The next step in this transition will change the appearance of some buttons and may break some outdated (non-updated or unmaintained) user scripts and gadgets.

You can see and use the old and new versions now. Most editors will only notice that some buttons are slightly larger and have different colors.

• Comparison of old and new styles
• 
  Buttons before the change
• 
  Buttons after the change

However, this change also affects some user scripts and gadgets. Unfortunately, some of them may not work well in the new system. If you maintain any user scripts or gadgets that are used for editing, please see mw:Contributors/Projects/Accessible editing buttons for information on how to test and fix your scripts. Outdated scripts can be tested and fixed now.

This change will probably reach this wiki on Tuesday, 18 July 2017. Please leave a note at mw:Talk:Contributors/Projects/Accessible editing buttons if you need help.

Page Previews (Hovercards) update

Hello,

A quick update on the progress of enabling Page Previews (previously named Hovercards) on this project. Page Previews provide a preview of any linked article, giving readers a quick understanding of a related article without leaving the current page. As mentioned in December we're preparing to remove the feature from Beta and make it the default behavior for logged-out users. We have recently made a large update to the code which fixes most outstanding bugs.

Due to some issues with our instrumentation, we delayed our deployment by a few months. We are finally ready to deploy the feature. Page Previews will be off by default and available in the user preferences page for logged-in users the week of July 24th. The feature will be on by default for current beta users and logged-out users. If you would like to preview the feature, you can enable it as a beta feature. For more information see Page Previews. Questions can be left on the talk page in your preferred language.

Thank you again.

RfC regarding "Interlinking of accounts involved with paid editing to decrease impersonation"

There is currently a RfC open on Meta regarding "requiring those involved with paid editing on Wikipedia to link on their user page to all other active accounts through which they advertise paid Wikipedia editing business."

Note this is to apply to Wikipedia and not necessarily other sister projects, this is only to apply to websites where people are specifically advertising that they will edit Wikipedia for pay and not any other personal, professional, or social media accounts a person may have.

Please comment on meta. Thanks. Send on behalf of User:Doc James.

Discussion on synced reading lists

Discussion on synced reading lists

Hello,

The Reading Infrastructure team at the Wikimedia Foundation is developing a cross-platform reading list service for the mobile Wikipedia app. Reading lists are like bookmark folders in your web browser. They allow readers using the Wikipedia app to bookmark pages into folders to read later. This includes reading offline. Reading lists do not create or alter content in any way.

To create Reading Lists, app users will register an account and marked pages will be tied to that account. Reading List account preferences sync between devices. You can read the same pages on different mobile platforms (tablets, phones). This is the first time we are syncing preference data between devices in such a way. We want to hear and address concerns about privacy and data security. We also want to explain why the current watchlist system is not being adapted for this purpose.

Background

In 2016 the Android team replaced the simple Saved Pages feature with Reading Lists. Reading Lists allow users to bookmark pages into folders and for reading offline. The intent of this feature was to allow "syncing" of these lists for users with many devices. Due to overlap with the Gather feature and related community concerns, this part was put on hold.

The Android team has identified this lack of synching as a major area of complaint from users. They expect lists to sync. The iOS team has held off implementing Reading Lists, as syncing was seen as a "must have" for this feature. A recent technical RfC has allowed these user stories and needs to be unblocked. Initially for Android, then iOS, and with web to potentially follow.

Reading lists are private, stored as part of a user's account, not as a public wiki page. There is no sharing or publishing ability for reading lists. No planned work to make these public. The target audience are people that read Wikipedia and want to bookmark and organize that content in the app. There is a potential for the feature to be available on the web in the future.

Why not watchlists

Watchlists offer similar functionality to Reading Lists. The Reading Infrastructure team evaluated watchlist infrastructure before exploring other options. In general, the needs of watchlists differ from Reading Lists in a few key ways:

• Reading lists focus on Reading articles, not the monitoring of changes.
• Watchlists are focused on monitoring changes of pages/revisions.
  • The Watchlist infrastructure is key to our contributor community for monitoring content changes manually and through the use of automated tools (bots). Because of these needs, expanding the scope of Watchlists to reading purposes will only make the project harder to maintain and add more constraints.
• By keeping the projects separate it is easier to scale resources. We can serve these two different audiences and prioritize the work accordingly. Reading Lists are, by their nature, less critical to the health of Wikipedia/MediaWiki.
• Multi-project support. Reading Lists are by design cross-wiki/project. Watchlists are tied to specific wikis. While there have been many discussion for making them cross-wiki, resolution is not in the near term.

More information can be found on MediaWiki.org where feedback and ideas are welcome.

Thank you

Processing Occitan as Catalan

Apologies for posting in English. Mercé de nos ajudar a traduire dins vòstra lenga

There is an error in the configuration of Occitan-language wiki projects. Text on this wiki is treated as if it is in Catalan. In general, treating one language as another gives poor results. Sometimes it does nothing, and often it does the wrong thing. However, Occitan and Catalan may be similar enough that doing so provides a significant benefit. It is difficult to know without being familiar with both languages. I'm hoping you can give us your opinion. Unless there is a good reason to keep treating Occitan as Catalan, the change will begin the week of October 9th. Please let me know of any concerns. You can read more about the overall project (in English) on Mediawiki.org [1].

Not sure if it is clear, but this would not affect the user interface text or the system messages that are in Catalan, which are probably helpful when no Occitan is available. We are only talking about how we process the text of articles for searching. TJones (WMF) (d) 5 octobre de 2017 a 20.03 (UTC)

These changes were completed the week of October 9th and deployed the following week. The re-indexing of the affected wikis was completed a few hours ago and should be live everywhere now. The list of affected languages is on the Phab ticket T177871 and a list by wiki is on that page in a comment. For more details, see the write up on MediaWiki.

presenting the project Wikipedia Cultural Diversity Observatory and asking for a vounteer in Occitan Wikipedia

Hello everyone,

My name is Marc Miquel and I am a researcher from Barcelona (Universitat Pompeu Fabra). While I was doing my PhD I studied whether an identity-based motivation could be important for editor participation and I analyzed content representing the editors' cultural context in 40 Wikipedia language editions. Few months later, I propose creating the Wikipedia Cultural Diversity Observatory in order to raise awareness on Wikipedia’s current state of cultural diversity, providing datasets, visualizations and statistics, and pointing out solutions to improve intercultural coverage.

I am presenting this project to a grant and I expect that the site becomes a useful tool to help communities create more multicultural encyclopaedias and bridge the content culture gap that exists across language editions (one particular type of systemic bias). For instance, this would help spreading cultural content local to Occitan Wikipedia into the rest of Wikipedia language editions, and viceversa, make Occitan Wikipedia much more multicultural. Here is the link of the project proposal: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Wikipedia_Cultural_Diversity_Observatory_(WCDO)

I am searching for a volunteer in each language community: I still need one for the Occitan Wikipedia. If you feel like it, you can contact me at: marcmiquel *at* gmail.com I need a contact in your every community who can (1) check the quality of the cultural context article list I generate to be imported-exported to other language editions, (2) test the interface/data visualizations in their language, and (3) communicate the existance of the tool/site when ready to the language community and especially to those editors involved in projects which could use it or be aligned with it. Communicating it might not be a lot of work, but it will surely have a greater impact if done in native language! :). If you like the project, I'd ask you to endorse it in the page I provided. In any case, I will appreciate any feedback, comments,... Thanks in advance for your time! Best regards, --Marcmiquel (d) 9 octobre de 2017 a 22.05 (UTC) Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona

New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers

New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers

The Readers web team will be deploying a new feature this week to make it easier to download PDF versions of articles on the mobile website.

Providing better offline functionality was one of the highlighted areas from the research done by the New Readers team in Mexico, Nigeria, and India. The teams created a prototype for mobile PDFs which was evaluated by user research and community feedback. The prototype evaluation received positive feedback and results, so development continued.

For the initial deployment, the feature will be available to Google Chrome browsers on Android. Support for other mobile browsers to come in the future. For Chrome, the feature will use the native Android print functionality. Users can choose to download a webpage as a PDF. Mobile print styles will be used for these PDFs to ensure optimal readability for smaller screens.

The feature is available starting Wednesday, Nov 15. For more information, see the project page on MediaWiki.org.

Mercés !
