== Υποψηφιότητα διαχειριστή ==

Υπέβαλα την υποψηφιότητα μου για ανάληψη των καθηκόντων του διαχειριστή των Ελληνικών Βικινέων. Η σελίδα υποψηφιότητας είναι [[Βικινέα:Υποψήφιοι διαχειριστές/Nataly8/2|αυτή]].

Καθώς δεν υπήρξε συμμετοχή, μεταφέρω την υποψηφιότητα μου [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Steward_requests/Permissions#Nataly8.40elwikinews εδώ].

Γεια σας, θα ήθελα να σας προϊδεάσω σχετικά με ένα επερχόμενο εργαλείο για τη Βικιπαίδεια που ίσως ήδη να έχετε δει στο [[:m:Tech/News/2016/25|Tech News]].[[:mw:Universal_Language_Selector/Compact_Language_Links|Compact Language Links]] καθώς είναι διαθέσιμο στη Βήτα έκδοσή του σε όλα τα wikis της Wikimedia από το 2014. Όταν η επιλογή σύμπτυξης της λίστας των γλωσσικών συνδέσμων είναι ενεργοποιημένη, οι χρήστες βλέπουν έναν πολύ μικρότερο κατάλογο των γλωσσών στην συγκεκριμένη ενότητα του λήμματος (δείτε την εικόνα). Αυτό θα είναι διαθέσιμο ως επιλογή για όλους τους χρήστες την ερχόμενη εβδομάδα, το οποίο θα μπορεί να ενεργοποιηθεί ή να απενεργοποιηθεί κατά προτίμηση. Ανυπομονούμε για τα σχόλιά σας και θα σας παρακαλούσαμε να μας ενημερώσετε σχετικά με οποιαδήποτε απορία σας. Λεπτομέρειες σχετικά με τη σύμπτυξη των γλωσσικών συνδέσμων μπορείτε να διαβάσετε στην [[:mw:Universal_Language_Selector/Compact_Language_Links| τεκμηρίωση του έργου]].
  
Λόγω της μεγάλης κλίμακας ενεργοποίησης αυτής της δυνατότητας, αναγκαστήκαμε να στείλουμε [[: m: Global_message_delivery |μαζικά]] αυτό το μήνυμα και ως εκ τούτου είναι γραμμένο μόνο στα αγγλικά. Θα εκτιμούσαμε ιδιαίτερα εάν το μήνυμα αυτό μπορούσε να μεταφραστεί για τους χρήστες της Βικιπαίδειας. Η βασική αυτή ανακοίνωση μπορεί επίσης να μεταφραστεί σε [[:mw:Universal_Language_Selector/Compact_Language_Links/Announcement_draft_June_2016| αυτή τη σελίδα]]. Σας ευχαριστώ. Εκ μέρους της ομάδας γλωσσικών ζητημάτων του Wikimedia.

== Πύλη ==
Έχω μερικές ιδέες!
# Η πύλη να μετονομασθεί σε πρωτοσέλιδο.
# Το πρωτοσέλιδο να είναι-εμφανίζεται ως εξής

           Ελληνικά Βικινέα
      Τετάρτη 24 Αυγούστου 2016
 Να γράφονται τα 5 σημαντικότερα γεγονότα της ημέρας με συνδέσμους και οι αρθογράφοι π.χ.

[[Την Τετάρτη η ανακοίνωση των βάσεων στις σχολές ΑΕΙ και ΤΕΙ]] από τον [[Χρήστης:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|Βικιδημοσιογράφο]]

[[Επίθεση σε σχολείο της Αυστραλίας με χρήση κροκοδείλων]] από τον [[Χρήστης:Nataly8|Nataly8]]

Καλή ιδέα; Περιμένω την έγκριση της κοινότητας. Μπορούμε να προσθέσουμε και άλλα πράγματα στο πρωτοσέλιδο.--[[Χρήστης:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|Βικιδημοσιογράφος]] ([[Συζήτηση χρήστη:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|συζήτηση]]) 00:15, 24 Αυγούστου 2016 (EEST)

Αν θέλεις, μπορείς να προχωρήσεις σε δοκιμές στο πρόχειρό σου. Πρώτον, λέγεται Κύρια Σελίδα, όχι Πύλη. Δεύτερον, όσον αφορά τα 5 άρθρα, κανένα πρόβλημα, αλλά στο μέλλον, όταν θα έχουμε σίγουρα αρκετά άρθρα για να βάζουμε (δηλαδή θα έχουμε περισσότερα από 1 άρθρο κάθε μέρα). Τρίτον, νομίζω τα άρθρα στην Κύρια Σελίδα πρέπει να εμφανίζονται όπως τώρα, δηλαδή τίτλος και μικρή περίληψη και όχι απλά ο τίτλος και το όνομα εκείνου που το δημιούργησε. Αλλά, όπως είπα και στην αρχή, μπορείς να πειραματιστείς σε μια πρόχειρη σελίδα. [[User:Nataly8|Nataly8]] &lt;sup&gt;[[User talk:Nataly8|&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;&quot;&gt;συζήτηση&lt;/span&gt;]]&lt;/sup&gt; 11:32, 24 Αυγούστου 2016 (EEST)

Nataly8, μπορείς την ημερομηνία να τη βάλεις κάτω από τον τίτλο και να σβήσεις τα -, από το [[Πρότυπο:Πρωτοσέλιδο]]; Επιπλέον μπορείς το πρότυπο να το ταιριάξεις μαζί με αυτο [[:Κύρια Σελίδα/header]];--[[Χρήστης:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|Βικιδημοσιογράφος]] ([[Συζήτηση χρήστη:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|συζήτηση]]) 16:44, 24 Αυγούστου 2016 (EEST)

Πράξε όπως νομίζεις. Για την πρόταση της ονομασίας δε τοποθετήθηκες. Πες τη γνώμη σου.--[[Χρήστης:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|Βικιδημοσιογράφος]] ([[Συζήτηση χρήστη:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|συζήτηση]]) 17:03, 24 Αυγούστου 2016 (EEST)

:Έσβησα τις παύλες από το πρότυπο, αλλά δεν ξέρω πως ακριβώς θέλεις να το ταιριάξω στην επικεφαλίδα της Κύριας Σελίδας - μπορείς να δοκιμάσεις στο πρόχειρό σου. Τώρα, όσον αφορά την ονομασία, είναι κοινός κανόνας στα εγχειρήματα της Wikimedia να λέγεται Κύρια Σελίδα. [[User:Nataly8|Nataly8]] &lt;sup&gt;[[User talk:Nataly8|&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;&quot;&gt;συζήτηση&lt;/span&gt;]]&lt;/sup&gt; 18:35, 24 Αυγούστου 2016 (EEST)

== Νέα σελίδα πρόχειρο ==

Καλησπέρα! Σήμερα δημιούργησα το πρόχειρο των βικινέων. [[Βικινέα:Πρόχειρο]]. Τώρα θα μπορούμε να πειραματιζόμαστε εκεί.--[[Χρήστης:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|Βικιδημοσιογράφος]] ([[Συζήτηση χρήστη:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|συζήτηση]]) 16:23, 24 Αυγούστου 2016 (EEST)

== Πρότυπο ==
Σε θα 'πρεπε να υπάρχει πρότυπο για τη βόρεια Κύπρο;

{{Ημερομηνία|24 October 2013}}
{{Βόρεια Κύπρος}}
--[[Χρήστης:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|Βικιδημοσιογράφος]] ([[Συζήτηση χρήστη:Βικιδημοσιογράφος|συζήτηση]]) 17:30, 24 Αυγούστου 2016 (EEST)

Όχι, η ΤΔΒΚ δεν είναι αναγνωρισμένο κράτος, οπότε δεν έχει κάποιο νόημα το εν λόγω πρότυπο. Τα άρθρα για γεγονότα που θα λάβουν χώρα στη βόρεια Κύπρο συμπεριλαμβάνονται στο πρότυπο Κύπρος. [[User:Nataly8|Nataly8]] &lt;sup&gt;[[User talk:Nataly8|&lt;span style=&quot;color:red;&quot;&gt;συζήτηση&lt;/span&gt;]]&lt;/sup&gt; 18:17, 24 Αυγούστου 2016 (EEST)


== ΣΗΜΑΝΤΙΚΟ: Επιθεώρηση δραστηριότητας διαχειριστών ==
Χαίρετε! Μία πολιτική για την αφαίρεση «ανώτερων δικαιωμάτων» (διαχειριστής, γραφειοκράτης, κτλ) υιοθετήθηκε με [[:m:Requests for comment/Activity levels of advanced administrative rights holders|συναίνεση της παγκόσμιας κοινότητας]] το 2013. Σύμφωνα με αυτή την πολιτική, οι [[:m:stewards|επίτροποι]] επιθεωρούν την δραστηριότητα των διαχειριστών σε όλα τα wiki του ιδρύματος Wikimedia που δεν έχουν τοπική πολιτική για τους αδρανείς διαχειριστές. Σύμφωνα με όσα γνωρίζουμε, το wiki σας δεν διαθέτει επίσημη διαδικασία για την αφαίρεση «ανωτέρων δικαιωμάτων» από ανενεργούς λογαριασμούς. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι οι επίτροποι θα δράσουν σύμφωνα με την [[:m:Admin activity review|επιθεώρηση δραστηριότητας διαχειριστών]].

Διαπιστώσαμε ότι οι ακόλουθοι χρήστες πληρούν τα κριτήρια αδράνειας (καμία επεξεργασία και καμία διαχειριστική δραστηριότητα για πάνω από 2 χρόνια):
# [[User:Patriot8790]]

Αυτοί οι χρήστες θα λάβουν σύντομα ειδοποίηση, που θα τους ζητά να αρχίσουν μία συζήτηση στην κοινότητα για το άν θέλουν να κρατήσουν κάποια ή όλα τα δικαιώματά τους. Αν οι χρήστες δεν ανταποκριθούν, τότε τα ανώτερα δικαιώματά τους θα αφαιρεθούν από τους επιτρόπους.

Ωστόσο, αν εσείς ως κοινότητα θέλετε να φτιάξετε τη δική σας διαδικασία επιθεώρησης δραστηριότητας που να υπερκαλύπτει την παγκόσμια, θέλετε να πάρετε άλλη απόφαση σχετικά με τους ανενεργούς κατόχους αυτών των δικαιωμάτων, ή έχετε ήδη αντίστοιχη πολιτική που την παραβλέψαμε, παρακαλούμε [[:m:Stewards' noticeboard|ειδοποιήστε τους επιτρόπους στο Meta-Wiki]], έτσι ώστε να γνωρίζουμε να μην προχωρήσουμε με την επιθεώρηση δικαιωμάτων στο wiki σας. Ευχαριστούμε, --[[Χρήστης:MarcoAurelio|MarcoAurelio]] ([[Συζήτηση χρήστη:MarcoAurelio|συζήτηση]]) 01:04, 17 Απριλίου 2018 (EEST)

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

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
{{int:please-translate}}

Hello everyone,

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

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

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

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

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

Please feel free to [[:m:User talk:Martin Urbanec|ask me]] if you have any questions about this proposal.

Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;

== Universal Code of Conduct – 2021 consultations ==

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; class=&quot;mw-content-ltr&quot;&gt;
=== Universal Code of Conduct Phase 2 ===

{{int:please-translate}}

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

==== Drafting Committee: Call for applications ====

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

To apply and learn more about the process, see [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee|Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee]].

==== 2021 community consultations: Notice and call for volunteers / translators ====

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

To learn more about this work and other conversations taking place, see [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations|Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations]].

== Global bot policy changes ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
{{int:hello}}!

I apologize for sending a message in English. {{int:please-translate}}. According to [[:m:Bot_policy/Implementation#Where_it_is_policy|the list]], your wiki project is currently opted in to the [[:m:Bot_policy#Global_bots|global bot policy]]. As such, I want to let you know about some changes that were made after the [[:m:Requests for comment/Refine global bot policy|global RfC]] was closed.

*Global bots are now subject to a 2 week discussion, and it'll be publicized via a MassMessage list, available at [[:m:Bot policy/New global bot discussion|Bot policy/New global bot discussion]] on Meta. Please subscribe yourself or your wiki if you are interested in new global bots proposals.
*For a bot to be considered for approval, it must demonstrate it is welcomed in multiple projects, and a good way to do that is to have the bot flag on at least 5 wikis for a single task.
*The bot operator should make sure to adhere to the wiki's preference as related to the use of the bot flag (i.e., if a wiki doesn't want a bot to use the flag as it edits, that should be followed).

Thank you for your time.

Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;

Από τις 15 Απριλίου, μπορείτε να ενεργοποιήσετε την αρίθμηση γραμμής σε ορισμένους συντάκτες wikitext - προς το παρόν στο χώρο ονομάτων προτύπων, σύντομα θα έρθουμε σε περισσότερους χώρους ονομάτων. Αυτό θα διευκολύνει τον εντοπισμό αλλαγών γραμμής και την αναφορά σε μια συγκεκριμένη γραμμή στις συζητήσεις. Αυτοί οι αριθμοί θα εμφανιστούν εάν ενεργοποιήσετε τη δυνατότητα επισήμανσης σύνταξης ([[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|επέκταση CodeMirror]]), η οποία υποστηρίζεται στους συντάκτες wikitext [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:WikiEditor|2010]] και [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2017 wikitext editor|2017]].

== Suggested Values ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;  

From April 29, it will be possible to suggest values for parameters in templates. Suggested values can be added to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:TemplateData|TemplateData]] and will then be shown as a drop-down list in [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide|VisualEditor]]. This allows template users to quickly select an appropriate value. This way, it prevents potential errors and reduces the effort needed to fill the template with values. It will still be possible to fill in values other than the suggested ones.

More information, including the supported parameter types and how to create suggested values: [[mw:Help:TemplateData#suggestedvalues|[1]]] [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Suggested_values_for_template_parameters|[2]]]. Everyone is invited to test the feature, and to give feedback [[m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Suggested values for template parameters|on this talk page]].

'''Event Program''' - Individuals or a group of individuals can submit their session proposals to be a part of the program. There will be translation support for sessions provided in a number of languages. See more information [[:wikimania:2021:Submissions/Guidelines#Language Accessibility|here]].

Below are some links to guide you through;
* [[:wikimania:2021:Submissions|Program Submissions]]
* [[:wikimania:2021:Submissions/Guidelines|Session Submission Guidelines]]
* [[:wikimania:2021:FAQ|FAQ]]

Please note that the deadline for submission is 18th June 2021. 

'''Announcements'''- To keep up to date with the developments around Wikimania, the COT sends out weekly updates. You can view them in the Announcement section [[:wikimania:2021:Announcements|here]]. 

'''Office Hour''' - If you are left with questions, the COT will be hosting some office hours (in multiple languages), in multiple time-zones, to answer any programming questions that you might have.  Details can be found [[:wikimania:2021:Organizers#Office hours schedule|here.]]

[[File:Reply Tool A-B test comment completion.png|alt=Junior contributors comment completion rate across all participating Wikipedias|thumb|296x296px|When newcomers had the Reply tool and tried to post on a talk page, they were more successful at posting a comment. ([https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ Source])]]

Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of [[mw:Talk pages project/Replying|the Reply Tool]].  The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped [[mw:Talk pages project/Glossary|newer editors]] communicate on wiki.  The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor.

The key results were:

* Newer editors who had automatic (&quot;default on&quot;) access to the Reply tool were [https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ more likely] to post a comment on a talk page.
* The comments that newer editors made with the Reply Tool were also [https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ less likely] to be reverted than the comments that newer editors made with page editing.

These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful.

&lt;strong&gt;Looking ahead&lt;/strong&gt;

The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months.  This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.

The next step is to [[phab:T280599|resolve a technical challenge]]. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the [[phab:T267379|Wikipedias that participated in the study]].  After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis.

You can turn on &quot;{{int:discussiontools-preference-label}}&quot; [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|in Beta Features]] now.  After you get the Reply tool, you can change your preferences at any time in [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion]].

== Server switch ==

The [[foundation:|Wikimedia Foundation]] tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers.  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 do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems. &lt;!--

 They will switch all traffic back to the primary data center on '''Tuesday, October 27 2020'''. --&gt;

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|MediaWiki]], all editing must stop while the switch is made.  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 up to an hour on Tuesday, 29 June 2021. The test will start at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1624975200 14:00 UTC] (07:00 PDT, 10:00 EDT, 15:00 WEST/BST, 16:00 CEST, 19:30 IST,  23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Wednesday 30 June).
*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 week of June 28.  Non-essential code deployments will not happen.

This project may be postponed if necessary.  You can [[wikitech:Switch_Datacenter#Schedule_for_2021_switch|read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org]]. Any changes will be announced in the schedule.  There will be more notifications about this. A banner will be displayed on all wikis 30 minutes before this operation happens.

== Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election has come to an end ==

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

6,946 community members from 216 wiki projects have voted. This makes 10.2% global participation, 1.1% higher than in the last Board elections. In 2017, 5167 people from 202 wiki projects cast their vote. A full analysis is planned to be published in a few days when the confirmed results are announced. In the meantime, you can check the [[:meta:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2021/Stats|data produced during the election]].

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

== The 2022 Community Wishlist Survey will happen in January ==

&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks mw-content-ltr&quot; lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
Hello everyone,

We hope all of you are as well and safe as possible during these trying times! We wanted to share some news about a change to the Community Wishlist Survey 2022. We would like to hear your opinions as well.

Summary:

&lt;div style=&quot;font-style:italic;&quot;&gt;
We will be running the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey|Community Wishlist Survey]] 2022 in January 2022. We need more time to work on the 2021 wishes. We also need time to prepare some changes to the Wishlist 2022. In the meantime, you can use a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|dedicated sandbox to leave early ideas for the 2022 wishes]].
&lt;/div&gt;

=== Proposing and wish-fulfillment will happen during the same year ===

In the past, the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Tech|Community Tech]] team has run the Community Wishlist Survey for the following year in November of the prior year. For example, we ran the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2021|Wishlist for 2021]] in November 2020. That worked well a few years ago. At that time, we used to start working on the Wishlist soon after the results of the voting were published.

However, in 2021, there was a delay between the voting and the time when we could start working on the new wishes. Until July 2021, we were working on wishes from the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2020|Wishlist for 2020]].

We hope having the Wishlist 2022 in January 2022 will be more intuitive. This will also give us time to fulfill more wishes from the 2021 Wishlist.

=== Encouraging wider participation from historically excluded communities ===

We are thinking how to make the Wishlist easier to participate in. We want to support more translations, and encourage under-resourced communities to be more active. We would like to have some time to make these changes.

=== A new space to talk to us about priorities and wishes not granted yet ===

We will have gone 365 days without a Wishlist. We encourage you to approach us. We hope to hear from you in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Community Wishlist Survey|talk page]], but we also hope to see you at our bi-monthly Talk to Us meetings! These will be hosted at two different times friendly to time zones around the globe.

We will begin our first meeting '''September 15th at 23:00 UTC'''. More details about the agenda and format coming soon!

=== Brainstorm and draft proposals before the proposal phase ===

If you have early ideas for wishes, you can use the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|new Community Wishlist Survey sandbox]]. This way, you will not forget about these before January 2022. You will be able to come back and refine your ideas. Remember, edits in the sandbox don't count as wishes!

=== Feedback ===
* What should we do to improve the Wishlist pages?
* How would you like to use our new [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|sandbox?]]
* What, if any, risks do you foresee in our decision to change the date of the Wishlist 2022?
* What will help more people participate in the Wishlist 2022?

Answer on the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Community Wishlist Survey|talk page]] (in any language you prefer) or at our Talk to Us meetings.

The [[foundation:|Wikimedia Foundation]] tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers. 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 do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre 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 back to the primary data center on '''Tuesday, 14 September 2021'''.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|MediaWiki]], all editing must stop while the switch is made. 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 up to an hour on Tuesday, 14 September 2021. The test will start at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1631628049 14:00 UTC] (07:00 PDT, 10:00 EDT, 15:00 WEST/BST, 16:00 CEST, 19:30 IST, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Wednesday, 15 September).
*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.
* We expect the code deployments to happen as any other week. However, some case-by-case code freezes could punctually happen if the operation require them afterwards.

This project may be postponed if necessary.  You can [[wikitech:Switch_Datacenter|read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org]]. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this. A banner will be displayed on all wikis 30 minutes before this operation happens. '''Please share this information with your community.'''&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; [[user:SGrabarczuk (WMF)|SGrabarczuk (WMF)]] ([[user talk:SGrabarczuk (WMF)|&lt;span class=&quot;signature-talk&quot;&gt;{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}&lt;/span&gt;]]) 03:45, 11 Σεπτεμβρίου 2021 (EEST)

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

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

* What is the best way to ensure fair representation of emerging communities among the Board?

* What involvement should candidates have during the election?

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

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

Contact the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Strategy and Governance|Movement Strategy and Governance team]] on Meta, on [https://t.me/wmboardgovernancechat Telegram], or via email at msg[[File:At sign.svg|16x16px|link=|(_AT_)]]wikimedia.org.

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

Best,

H '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2022|Δημοσκόπηση Επιθυμιών της Κοινότητας 2022]]''' έχει τώρα ανοίξει!

Η δημοσκόπηση αυτή αποτελεί την μέθοδο μέσω της οποίας οι κοινότητες αποφασίζουν σε τί θα εργαστεί η ομάδα [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Tech|Community Tech]] μέσα στην επόμενη χρονιά. Ενθαρρύνουμε όλους να συμβάλλουν με προτάσεις μέχρι τις '''23 Ιανουαρίου''', ή να σχολιάσουν τις υπάρχουσες προτάσεις ώστε να βελτιωθούν.

Οι κοινότητες θα μπορούν να ψηφίσουν τις προτάσεις μεταξύ 28 Ιανουαρίου και 11 Φεβρουαρίου.

Η ομάδα Community Tech εστιάζει σε εργαλεία για έμπειρους συντάκτες. Μπορείτε να συντάξετε προτάσεις σε οποιαδήποτε γλώσσα, και θα τις μεταφράσουμε για εσάς. Ευχαριστούμε και ανυπομονούμε να δούμε τις προτάσεις σας! [[User:SGrabarczuk (WMF)|SGrabarczuk (WMF)]] ([[User talk:SGrabarczuk (WMF)|talk]]) 23:00, 10 Ιανουαρίου 2022 (EET)

== ΣΗΜΑΝΤΙΚΟ: Επιθεώρηση δραστηριότητας διαχειριστών ==

Χαίρετε! Μία πολιτική για την αφαίρεση «ανώτερων δικαιωμάτων» (διαχειριστής, γραφειοκράτης, κτλ) υιοθετήθηκε με [[:m:Requests for comment/Activity levels of advanced administrative rights holders|συναίνεση της παγκόσμιας κοινότητας]] το 2013. Σύμφωνα με αυτή την πολιτική, οι [[:m:stewards|επίτροποι]] επιθεωρούν την δραστηριότητα των διαχειριστών σε όλα τα wiki του ιδρύματος Wikimedia που δεν έχουν τοπική πολιτική για τους αδρανείς διαχειριστές. Σύμφωνα με όσα γνωρίζουμε, το wiki σας δεν διαθέτει επίσημη διαδικασία για την αφαίρεση «ανωτέρων δικαιωμάτων» από ανενεργούς λογαριασμούς. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι οι επίτροποι θα δράσουν σύμφωνα με την [[:m:Admin activity review|επιθεώρηση δραστηριότητας διαχειριστών]].

Διαπιστώσαμε ότι οι ακόλουθοι χρήστες πληρούν τα κριτήρια αδράνειας (καμία επεξεργασία και καμία διαχειριστική δραστηριότητα για πάνω από 2 χρόνια):

# Glavkos (διαχειριστής)

Αυτοί οι χρήστες θα λάβουν σύντομα ειδοποίηση, που θα τους ζητά να αρχίσουν μία συζήτηση στην κοινότητα για το άν θέλουν να κρατήσουν κάποια ή όλα τα δικαιώματά τους. Αν οι χρήστες δεν ανταποκριθούν, τότε τα ανώτερα δικαιώματά τους θα αφαιρεθούν από τους επιτρόπους.

Ωστόσο, αν εσείς ως κοινότητα θέλετε να φτιάξετε τη δική σας διαδικασία επιθεώρησης δραστηριότητας που να υπερκαλύπτει την παγκόσμια, θέλετε να πάρετε άλλη απόφαση σχετικά με τους ανενεργούς κατόχους αυτών των δικαιωμάτων, ή έχετε ήδη αντίστοιχη πολιτική που την παραβλέψαμε, παρακαλούμε [[:m:Stewards' noticeboard|ειδοποιήστε τους επιτρόπους στο Meta-Wiki]], έτσι ώστε να γνωρίζουμε να μην προχωρήσουμε με την επιθεώρηση δικαιωμάτων στο wiki σας.

The Call for Feedback: Board of Trustees elections is now open and will close on 7 February 2022. 

With this Call for Feedback, the Movement Strategy and Governance team is taking a different approach. This approach incorporates community feedback from 2021. Instead of leading with proposals, the Call is framed around key questions from the Board of Trustees. The key questions came from the feedback about the 2021 Board of Trustees election. The intention is to inspire collective conversation and collaborative proposal development about these key questions.

&lt;section begin=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;Hello! 

The Movement Strategy and Governance team of the Wikimedia Foundation would like to invite you to the next event about &quot;Regional and Thematic Hubs&quot;. The Wikimedia Movement is in the process of understanding what Regional and Thematic Hubs should be. Our workshop in November was a good start ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Documentation/27 November Workshop|read the report]]), but we're not finished yet. 

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

The event will take place on March 12, 13:00 to 16:00 UTC on Zoom. Interpretation will be provided in French, Spanish, Arabic, Russian, and Portuguese. Registration is open, and will close on March 10. Anyone interested in the topic is invited to join us. '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Hubs/Global Conversations March 12, 2022|More information on the event on Meta-wiki]]'''.

== Coming soon: Improvements for templates ==

[[File:Overview of changes in the VisualEditor template dialog by WMDE Technical Wishes.webm|thumb|Fundamental changes in the template dialog.]]
Hello, more changes around templates are coming to your wiki soon:

The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide#Editing templates|'''template dialog''' in VisualEditor]] and in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/2017 wikitext editor|2017 Wikitext Editor]] (beta) will be '''improved fundamentally''': 
This should help users understand better what the template expects, how to navigate the template, and how to add parameters. 
* [[metawiki:WMDE Technical Wishes/VisualEditor template dialog improvements|project page]], [[metawiki:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/VisualEditor template dialog improvements|talk page]]

In '''syntax highlighting''' ([[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] extension), you can activate a '''colorblind-friendly''' color scheme with a user setting. 
* [[metawiki:WMDE Technical Wishes/Improved Color Scheme of Syntax Highlighting#Color-blind_mode|project page]], [[metawiki:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Improved Color Scheme of Syntax Highlighting|talk page]]

Deployment is planned for May 10. This is the last set of improvements from [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes|WMDE Technical Wishes']] focus area “[[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Templates|Templates]]”. 

We would love to hear your feedback on our talk pages!

Hello all,

We'd like to provide an update on the work on the Enforcement Guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct.  After the conclusion of the community vote on the guidelines in March, the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Community Affairs Committee|Community Affairs committee (CAC)]] of the Board [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/JAYQN3NYKCHQHONMUONYTI6WRKZFQNSC/ asked that several areas of the guidelines be reviewed for improvements] before the Board does its final review. These areas were identified based on community discussions and comments provided during the vote. The CAC also requested review of the controversial Note in 3.1 of the UCoC itself.

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

Members of the two prior [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee|UCoC Drafting Committees]] have generously offered their time to help shape improvements to the Guidelines. You can read more about them and their work [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee#Revisions_Committee|here]], as well as read [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Drafting_committee/Phase_2_meeting_summaries#2022|summaries of their weekly meetings in 2022]]. 

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

On behalf of the UCoC project team &lt;br /&gt;&lt;section end=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;

Hi all,

Community members in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022|2022 Board of Trustees election]] are invited to [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2022/Community_Voting/Election_Compass|propose statements to use in the Election Compass.]]

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

;Here is the timeline for the Election Compass:

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

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

Best,

Movement Strategy and Governance

Please take a moment to appreciate the Affiliate Representatives and Analysis Committee members for taking part in this process and helping to grow the Board of Trustees in capacity and diversity. These hours of volunteer work connect us across understanding and perspective. Thank you for your participation.

Thank you to the community members who put themselves forward as candidates for the Board of Trustees. Considering joining the Board of Trustees is no small decision. The time and dedication candidates have shown to this point speaks to their commitment to this movement. Congratulations to those candidates who have been selected. A great amount of appreciation and gratitude for those candidates not selected. Please continue to share your leadership with Wikimedia.

Thank you to those who followed the Affiliate process for this Board election. You may review the results of the Affiliate selection process.

'''The next part of the Board election process is the community voting period.''' [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2022#Timeline|You may view the Board election timeline here]].

Hello everyone,

The [https://forum.movement-strategy.org/ Movement Strategy Forum] (MS Forum) is a multilingual collaborative space for all conversations about Movement Strategy implementation. 

We are inviting all Movement participants to collaborate on the MS Forum. The goal of the forum is to build community collaboration, using an inclusive multilingual platform.

The [[m:Movement Strategy|Movement Strategy]] is a collaborative effort to imagine and build the future of the Wikimedia Movement. Anyone can contribute to the Movement Strategy, from a comment to a full-time project.

;Join this forum with your Wikimedia account, engage in conversations, and ask questions in your language.

The Movement Strategy and Governance team (MSG) launched the proposal for the MS Forum in May 2022. There was a 2-month community review period, which ended on 24 July 2022. The community review process included several questions that resulted in interesting conversations. You can read the [https://forum.movement-strategy.org/t/ms-forum-community-review-report/1436 Community Review Report].

== The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks? ==

[[File:Wikimania 2022 Vector (2022) Presentation.pdf|thumb|The slides for our presentation at Wikimania 2022|page=26]]
Hello. I'm writing on behalf of the [[mw:Reading/Web|Wikimedia Foundation Web team]]. '''In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.'''

We have been working on it for the past three years. So far, it has been the default on more than 30 wikis, including sister projects, all accounting for more than 1 billion pageviews per month. On average [[phab:T317529#8246686|87% of active logged-in users]] of those wikis use Vector 2022.

It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy. Logged-in users can at any time switch to [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|any other skins]]. No changes are expected for users of these skins.

&lt;div style=&quot;width:100%; margin:auto;&quot;&gt;&lt;gallery widths=&quot;220&quot; heights=&quot;150&quot; mode=&quot;packed&quot; caption=&quot;Top of an article&quot;&gt;

&lt;/gallery&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
=== About the skin ===

'''[Why is a change necessary]''' The current default skin meets the needs of the readers and editors as these were 13 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using Wikimedia projects. [https://diff.wikimedia.org/2022/08/18/prioritizing-equity-within-wikipedias-new-desktop/ The old Vector doesn't meet their needs.]

'''[Objective]''' The objective for the new skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It draws inspiration from previous requests, the [[metawiki:Special:MyLanguage/Community_Wishlist_Survey|Community Wishlist Surveys]], and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. [[phab:phame/post/view/290/how_and_why_we_moved_our_skins_to_mustache/|We reduced PHP code in Wikimedia deployed skins by 75%]]. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs.

'''[Changes and test results]''' The skin introduces a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Features|series of changes]] that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin.

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

'''[Try it out]''' Try out the new skin by going to the appearance tab in [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|your preferences]] and selecting Vector 2022 from the list of skins.

=== How can editors change and customize this skin? ===

It's possible to configure and personalize our changes. We support volunteers who create new gadgets and user scripts. Check out [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Repository|our repository]] for a list of currently available customizations, or add your own. 

=== Our plan ===

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

== Invitation to attend “Ask Me Anything about Movement Charter” Sessions ==

&lt;section begin=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;

:''&lt;div class=&quot;plainlinks&quot;&gt;[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Charter/Community Consultation/Announcement/Ask Me Anything Sessions|{{int:interlanguage-link-mul}}]] • [https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&amp;group=page-{{urlencode:Movement Charter/Community Consultation/Announcement/Ask Me Anything Sessions}}&amp;language=&amp;action=page&amp;filter= {{int:please-translate}}]
Hello all, 

During the 2022 Wikimedia Summit, the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Charter/Drafting Committee|Movement Charter Drafting Committee]] (MCDC) presented the first outline of the Movement Charter, giving a glimpse on the direction of its future work, and the Charter itself. The MCDC then integrated the initial feedback collected during the Summit. Before proceeding with writing the Charter for the whole Movement, the MCDC wants to interact with community members and gather feedback on the drafts of the three sections: Preamble, Values &amp; Principles, and Roles &amp; Responsibilities (intentions statement). The Movement Charter drafts will be available on the Meta page [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Charter/Content|here]] on November 14, 2022. Community wide consultation period on MC will take place from November 20 to December 18, 2022. Learn more about it [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Charter/Community Consultation|here]]. 

With the goal of ensuring that people are well informed to fully participate in the conversations and are empowered to contribute their perspective on the Movement Charter, three '''“Ask Me Anything about Movement Charter&quot;''' sessions have been scheduled in different time zones. Everyone in the Wikimedia Movement is invited to attend these conversations. The aim is to learn about Movement Charter - its goal, purpose, why it matters, and how it impacts your community. MCDC members will attend these sessions to answer your questions and hear community feedback.     

The “Ask Me Anything” sessions accommodate communities from different time zones. Only the presentation of the session is recorded and shared afterwards, no recording of conversations. Below is the list of planned events: 

*&lt;s&gt;'''Asia/Pacific''': November 4, 2022 at 09:00 UTC ([https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1667552400 your local time]). Interpretation is available in Chinese and Japanese.&lt;/s&gt;
* '''Europe/MENA/Sub Saharan Africa''': November 12, 2022 at 15:00 UTC ([https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1668265257 your local time]). Interpretation is available in  Arabic, French and Russian.  
* '''North and South America/ Western Europe''': November 12, 2022 at 15:00 UTC ([https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1668265257 your local time]). Interpretation is available in Spanish and Portuguese. 

On the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Charter/Community Consultation|Meta page]] you will find more details; Zoom links will be shared 48 hours ahead of the call.

'''Call for Movement Charter Ambassadors'''

Individuals or groups from all communities who wish to help include and start conversations in their communities on the Movement Charter are encouraged to become [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Strategy and Governance/Movement Charter Ambassadors Program/About|Movement Charter Ambassadors]] (MC Ambassadors). MC Ambassadors will carry out their own activities and get financial support for enabling conversations in their own languages. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Strategy and Governance/Team|Regional facilitators]] from the Movement Strategy and Governance team are available to support applicants with MC Ambassadors grantmaking. If you are interested please sign up [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Strategy and Governance/Movement Charter Ambassadors Program/About|here]]. Should you have specific questions, please reach out to the MSG team via email: strategy2030@wikimedia.org or on the MS forum. 

We thank you for your time and participation.

== Apply for Funding through the Movement Strategy Community Engagement Package to Support Your Community ==

:''{{More languages}}''
&lt;section begin=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt; 
The Wikimedia Movement Strategy implementation is a collaborative effort for all Wikimedians. 
[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Grants:MSIG/About|Movement Strategy Implementation Grants]] support projects that take the current state of a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Strategy/Initiatives|Movement Strategy Initiative]] and push it one step forward. If you are looking for an example or some guide on how to engage your community further on Movement Strategy and the Movement Strategy Implementation Grants specifically, you may find this '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Grants:MSIG/Community Engagement Package|community engagement package]]''' helpful.

The goal of this community engagement package is to support more people to access the funding they might need for the implementation work. By becoming a recipient of this grant, you will be able to support other community members to develop further grant applications that fit with your local contexts to benefit your own communities. With this package, the hope is to break down language barriers and to ensure community members have needed information on Movement Strategy to connect with each other. Movement Strategy is a two-way exchange, we can always learn more from the experiences and knowledge of Wikimedians everywhere. We can train and support our peers by using this package, so more people can make use of this great funding opportunity.

If this information interests you or if you have any further thoughts or questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us as your [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement_Strategy_and_Governance/Team|regional facilitators]] to discuss further. We will be more than happy to support you. When you are ready, follow the steps on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Grants:MSIG/About |this page]] to apply. We look forward to receiving your application.

&lt;/div&gt;

Hi everyone! The Ombuds commission (OC) and the Case Review Committee (CRC) are looking for members. People are encouraged to nominate themselves or encourage others they feel would contribute to these groups to do so. There is more information below about the opportunity and the skills that are needed.

'''About the Ombuds commission'''

The Ombuds commission (OC) works on all Wikimedia projects to investigate complaints about violations of the privacy policy, especially in use of [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CheckUser policy|CheckUser]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Oversight policy|Oversight]] (also known as Suppression) tools. The Commission mediates between the parties of the investigation and, when violations of the policies are identified, advises the Wikimedia Foundation on best handling. They may also assist the General Counsel, the Chief Executive Officer, or the Board of Trustees of the Foundation in these investigations when legally necessary. For more on the OC's duties and roles, '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Ombuds commission|see Ombuds commission on Meta-Wiki]]'''.

Volunteers serving in this role should be experienced Wikimedians, active on any project, who have previously used the CheckUser/Oversight tools OR who have the technical ability to understand these tools and the willingness to learn them. They must be able to communicate in English, the common language of the commission. They are expected to be able to engage neutrally in investigating these concerns and to know when to recuse when other roles and relationships may cause conflict. Commissioners will serve '''two-year terms''' (note that this is different from past years, when the terms have been for one year).

'''About the Case Review Committee'''

The Case Review Committee (CRC) reviews appeals of eligible Trust &amp; Safety office actions. The CRC is a critical layer of oversight to ensure that Wikimedia Foundation office actions are fair and unbiased. They also make sure the Wikimedia Foundation doesn’t overstep established practices or boundaries. For more about the role, '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Case Review Committee|see Case Review Committee on Meta-Wiki]]'''.

We are looking for current or former functionaries and experienced volunteers with an interest in joining this group. Applicants must be fluent in English (additional languages are a strong plus) and willing to abide by the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Trust_and_Safety/Case_Review_Committee/Charter|terms of the Committee charter]]. If the work resonates and you qualify, please apply. Committee members will serve '''two-year terms''' (note that this is different from past years, when the terms have been for one year).

'''Applying to join either of these groups'''

Members are required to sign the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information|Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information]] and must be willing to comply with the appropriate Wikimedia Foundation board policies (such as the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Access to nonpublic information policy|access to non-public information policy]] and the [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Privacy policy|Foundation privacy policy]]). These positions requires a high degree of discretion and trust. Members must also be over 18 years of age.

'''If you are interested in serving in either capacity listed above,''' please write in English to the Trust and Safety team at ca[[File:At sign.svg|16x16px|link=|(_AT_)]]wikimedia.org (to apply to the OC) or to the Legal Team at legal[[File:At sign.svg|16x16px|link=|(_AT_)]]wikimedia.org (to apply to the CRC) with information about:

* Your primary projects
* Languages you speak/write
* Any experience you have serving on committees, whether movement or non-movement
* Your thoughts on what you could bring to the OC or CRC if appointed
* Any experience you have with the Checkuser or Oversight tools (OC only)
* Any other information you think is relevant

'''The deadline for applications is 31 December 2022 in any timezone.'''

Please feel free to pass this invitation along to any users who you think may be qualified and interested. Thank you!

== Wikinews Interlingual Association idea Contact  ==

Hello. I am a senior user from Chinese Wikinews. I want to strengthen the links between the Wikinews language communities and develop an excellent citizen news platform. Does it include the possibility of setting up a Telegram group to communicate with each other? Original reports or news about different languages, and news reports of news value are published in the group, so that everyone can know and translate each other. I also hope to strengthen contacts with projects in various Wikinews languages for a long time, and even establish a Wikinews Association to help our journalists facilitate the development of our projects, which may include applying for funding from the foundation, writing reports better, including original reporting projects, for public welfare, and better. Let our news agency reporters go to other places to interview, including bonuses, travel expenses, transportation expenses, and meals? In fact, I hope that if these reporting expenses can receive a foundation subsidy, in fact, journalists may focus more on original reporting, and they should do so! I thought it might be better to open a Wikinews Association across languages. I use Chinese as my mother tongue, so there may be some mistakes in English. If you don't understand, you are welcome to communicate, especially in simple English. Thank you very much!

Original reporting is in fact what media organizations should do more, because now many journalists' associations and experts criticize everyone for doing real-time news, and I do real-time news, which results in the lack of room for public attention or news stories that should be reported in depth, so this mentality is unfavorable to the media environment and the public.

Establishing an association to help Wikinews can provide more room for the platform to be upgraded and make it more convenient for our journalists to move. The establishment of associations can further unite the community, hold activities, vigorously develop Wikinews projects, and even launch a series of reports, so that we can no longer have a single report, enhance the credibility of our media from the public, and be more popular. 

Wikinews is a very suitable project for cross-language associations, because we are all doing the same thing and reporting around the world. It is one of the purposes of public broadcasting organizations to focus on diversified reports and public interest reports.

Το [[foundation:|Ἰδρυμα Wikimedia]] δοκιμάζει την εναλλαγή μεταξύ των πρωτευόντων και δευτερόντων κέντρων δεδομένων του. Με αυτόν τον τρόπο θα διασφαλιστεί ότι η Βικιπαίδεια και τα άλλα wiki του Wikimedia θα μπορούν να παραμείνουν ενεργά ακόμα και μετά από μία καταστροφή. Για να βεβαιώσουμε ότι όλα λειτουργούν ομαλά, το Τμήμα Τεχνολογίας της Wikimedia πρέπει να πραγματοποιήσει μία προγραμματισμένη δοκιμή. Η δοκιμή αυτή θα δείξει αν μπορεί να γίνει αξιόπιστα η αλλαγή από το ένα κέντρο δεδομένων στο άλλο. Χρειάζονται πολλές ομάδες τόσο για την προετοιμασία της δοκιμής, όσο και για την αντιμετώπιση τυχόν απροσδόκητων προβλημάτων. 

Όλη η κίνηση θα εναλλαχθεί στις '''{{#time:j xg|2023-03-01|el}}'''. Η δοκιμή θα ξεκινήσει στις '''[https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/{{#time:U|2023-03-01T14:00|en}} {{#time:H:i e|2023-03-01T14:00}}]''' (16:00 ώρα Ελλάδος και Κύπρου).

Hello,

As follow-up to [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org/message/IOMVS7W75ZYMABQGOQ2QH2JAURC3CHGH/ the message about the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines] by Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Vice Chair, Shani Evenstein Sigalov, I am reaching out about the next steps. I want to bring your attention to the next stage of the Universal Code of Conduct process, which is forming a building committee for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C). I invite community members with experience and deep interest in community health and governance to nominate themselves to be part of the U4C building committee, which needs people who are:

* Community members in good standing
* Knowledgeable about movement community processes, such as, but not limited to, policy drafting, participatory decision making, and application of existing rules and policies on Wikimedia projects
* Aware and appreciative of the diversity of the movement, such as, but not limited to, languages spoken, identity, geography, and project type
* Committed to participate for the entire U4C Building Committee period from mid-May - December 2023
* Comfortable with engaging in difficult, but productive conversations
* Confidently able to communicate in English

The Building Committee shall consist of volunteer community members, affiliate board or staff, and Wikimedia Foundation staff.

The Universal Code of Conduct has been a process strengthened by the skills and knowledge of the community and I look forward to what the U4C Building Committee creates. If you are interested in joining the Building Committee, please either [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/U4C_Building_Committee/Nominations|sign up on the Meta-Wiki page]], or contact ucocproject[[File:At sign.svg|16x16px|link=|(_AT_)]]wikimedia.org by May 12, 2023.

Hello there, 

We are glad to announce [[listarchive:list/wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org/message/4TALOUFPAP2VDBR27GKRVOP7IGQYU3DB/|the new members and advisors of the Elections Committee]]. The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_committee|Elections Committee]] assists with the design and implementation of the process to select Community- and Affiliate-Selected trustees for the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. After an open nomination process, the strongest candidates spoke with the Board and four candidates were asked to join the Elections Committee. Four other candidates were asked to participate as advisors. 

Thank you to all the community members who submitted their names for consideration. We look forward to working with the Elections Committee in the near future.

Apologies if this message is not in your language, {{int:Please help translate}} to your language.

This wiki will soon be able to use the [[mw:Help:Extension:Phonos#Inline_audio_player_mode|inline audio player]] implemented by the [[mw:Extension:Phonos|Phonos]] extension. This is part of fulfilling a wishlist proposal of providing [[m:Community_Wishlist_Survey_2022/Multimedia_and_Commons/Audio_links_that_play_on_click|audio links that play on click]].

With the inline audio player, you can add text-to-speech audio snippets to wiki pages by simply using a tag:
&lt;syntaxhighlight lang=&quot;wikitext&quot;&gt;
&lt;phonos file=&quot;audio file&quot; label=&quot;Listen&quot;/&gt;
&lt;/syntaxhighlight&gt;
The above tag will show the text next to a speaker icon, and clicking on it will play the audio instantly without taking you to another page. A common example where you can use this feature is in adding pronunciation to words as illustrated on the [[wiktionary:en:English#Pronunciation|English Wiktionary]] below.

&lt;syntaxhighlight lang=&quot;wikitext&quot;&gt;
{{audio|en|En-uk-English.oga|Audio (UK)}}
&lt;/syntaxhighlight&gt;

Could become:

&lt;syntaxhighlight lang=&quot;wikitext&quot;&gt;
&lt;phonos file=&quot;En-uk-English.oga&quot; label=&quot;Audio (UK)&quot;/&gt;
&lt;/syntaxhighlight&gt;

The inline audio player will be available in your wiki in 2 weeks time; in the meantime, we would like you to [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:Phonos|read about the features]] and give us feedback or ask questions about it in this [[mw:Help_talk:Extension:Phonos|talk page]].

Thank you!&lt;/div&gt;

Hello all,

I am pleased to share the next step in the [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Universal Code of Conduct|Universal Code of Conduct]] work. The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Charter|Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) draft charter]] is now ready for your review. 

The [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Universal Code of Conduct/Enforcement guidelines|Enforcement Guidelines]] require a [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines#4.5_U4C_Building_Committee|Building Committee]] form to draft a charter that outlines procedures and details for a global committee to be called the [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines#4._UCoC_Coordinating_Committee_(U4C)|Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C)]]. Over the past few months, the U4C Building Committee worked together as a group to discuss and draft the U4C charter. The U4C Building Committee welcomes feedback about the draft charter now through 22 September 2023. After that date, the U4C Building Committee will revise the charter as needed and a community vote will open shortly afterward.

Join the conversation during the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/U4C Building Committee#Conversation hours|conversation hours]] or on [[m:Talk:Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Charter|Meta-wiki]].

Dear all, 

Please review and comment on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees selection rules package from now until 29 October 2023. The selection rules package was based on older versions by the Elections Committee and will be used in the 2024 Board of Trustees selection. Providing your comments now will help them provide a smoother, better Board selection process. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2024|More on the Meta-wiki page]].

Best,

== The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks? ==

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; class=&quot;mw-content-ltr&quot;&gt;
''[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Updates/2023-10 for sister projects|Read this in your language]] • &lt;span class=plainlinks&gt;[https://mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&amp;group=page-Reading%2FWeb%2FDesktop+Improvements%2FUpdates%2F2023-10+for+sister+projects&amp;language=&amp;action=page&amp;filter= {{Int:please-translate}}]&lt;/span&gt; • Please tell other users about these changes''

Hello. I'm writing on behalf of the [[mw:Reading/Web|Wikimedia Foundation Web team]]. '''In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.'''
[[File:Desktop Improvements - how to enable globally.png|thumb|[[Special:GlobalPreferences|{{int:globalpreferences}}]]]]
'''If you prefer keeping the current skin''' select &quot;Vector legacy (2010)&quot; on [[Special:GlobalPreferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|the appearance tab of the global preferences]] and save the change. We encourage you to give the new skin a try, though.

Since I last came to you with this question, many things have changed. The skin is now the default on most Wikipedias, and all logos are done! We have also made some tweaks in the skin itself. Below is the text I've sent to you once, but I'm sending it again, just slightly edited, for those who haven't seen it.

If you know what this is about, jump straight to the section &quot;Our plan&quot;: 
&lt;div style=&quot;margin-left:.5em; border-left:3px dotted #a2a9b1; padding-left:.5em;&quot;&gt;
It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy as a [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|local]] (but not global) preference. Logged-in users can at any time switch to any other skin. No changes are expected for these skins.

=== About the skin ===
[[File:Wikimania 2022 Vector (2022) Presentation.pdf|thumb|Slides to our Wikimania 2022 presentation. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yC-ItaXDe2A You may also listen to the recording on YouTube (in English)].]]
'''[Why is a change necessary]''' When the current default skin was created, it reflected the needs of the readers and editors as these were 14 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using the Internet and Wikimedia projects in different ways. [[wmfblog:2022/08/18/prioritizing-equity-within-wikipedias-new-desktop/|The old Vector does not meet their needs]].

'''[Objective]''' The objective for the Vector 2022 skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It introduces a series of changes that aim to improve problems new and existing readers and editors were having with the old skin. It draws inspiration from previous user requests, the [[metawiki:Special:MyLanguage/Community_Wishlist_Survey|Community Wishlist Surveys]], and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. [[phab:phame/post/view/290/how_and_why_we_moved_our_skins_to_mustache/|The PHP code in the other available skins has been reduced by 75%]]. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs.
[[File:Screenshot of the Vector-2022 skin's fullscreen toggle.png|thumb]]
'''[Changes in a nutshell]''' The skin introduces changes that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin.
* The limited width and pin-able menus allow to adjust the interface to the screen size, and focus on editing or reading. Logged-in and logged-out users may use a toggle button to keep the full width, though.
* The sticky header makes it easier to find tools that editors use often. It decreases scrolling to the top of the page by 16%.
* The new table of contents makes it easier to navigate to different sections. Readers and editors jump to different sections of the page 50% more than with the old table of contents. It also looks a bit different on talk pages.
* The new search bar is easier to find and makes it easier to find the correct search result from the list. This increased the amount of searches started by 30% on the tested wikis.
* The skin does not negatively affect pageviews, edit rates, or account creation. There is evidence of increases in pageviews and account creation across partner communities.
'''[Customize this skin]''' It's possible to configure and personalize our changes. We support volunteers who create new gadgets and user scripts. Check out [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Repository|the repository]] for a list of currently available customizations and changes, or add your own.
&lt;/div&gt;
=== Our plan ===

'''If no large concerns are raised, we plan on deploying on 31 October'''. If you'd like to ask our team anything, if you have questions, concerns, or additional thoughts, please comment in any language. If this is the first comment to my message, make sure to ping me. We will gladly answer! Also, check out [[mw:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Frequently asked questions|our FAQ]]. Thank you!

The Technical Wishes team at Wikimedia Deutschland is planning to [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Reusing references|make reusing references easier]]. For our research, we are looking for wiki contributors willing to show us how they are interacting with references.

* The format will be a 1-hour video call, where you would share your screen. [https://wikimedia.sslsurvey.de/User-research-into-Reusing-References-Sign-up-Form-2024/en/ More information here].
* Interviews can be conducted in English, German or Dutch.

* Sessions will be held in January and February.
* [https://wikimedia.sslsurvey.de/User-research-into-Reusing-References-Sign-up-Form-2024/en/ Sign up here if you are interested.]
* Please note that we probably won’t be able to have sessions with everyone who is interested. Our UX researcher will try to create a good balance of wiki contributors, e.g. in terms of wiki experience, tech experience, editing preferences, gender, disability and more. If you’re a fit, she will reach out to you to schedule an appointment.

Dear all,

This year, the term of 4 (four) Community- and Affiliate-selected Trustees on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees will come to an end [1]. The Board invites the whole movement to participate in this year’s selection process and vote to fill those seats.

The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections committee|Elections Committee]] will oversee this process with support from Foundation staff [2]. The Board Governance Committee created a Board Selection Working Group from Trustees who cannot be candidates in the 2024 community- and affiliate-selected trustee selection process composed of Dariusz Jemielniak, Nataliia Tymkiv, Esra'a Al Shafei, Kathy Collins, and Shani Evenstein Sigalov [3]. The group is tasked with providing Board oversight for the 2024 trustee selection process, and for keeping the Board informed. More details on the roles of the Elections Committee, Board, and staff are here [4]. 

Here are the key planned dates:

*  May 2024: Call for candidates and call for questions
*  June 2024: Affiliates vote to shortlist 12 candidates (no shortlisting if 15 or less candidates apply) [5]
*  June-August 2024: Campaign period
*  End of August / beginning of September 2024: Two-week community voting period
*  October–November 2024: Background check of selected candidates
*  Board's Meeting in December 2024: New trustees seated

[5] Even though the ideal number is 12 candidates for 4 open seats, the shortlisting process will be triggered if there are more than 15 candidates because the 1-3 candidates that are removed might feel ostracized and it would be a lot of work for affiliates to carry out the shortlisting process to only eliminate 1-3 candidates from the candidate list.&lt;section end=&quot;announcement-content&quot; /&gt;

Όλη η κίνηση θα εναλλαχθεί στις '''{{#time:j xg|2024-03-20|el}}'''. Η δοκιμή θα ξεκινήσει στις '''[https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/{{#time:U|2024-03-20T14:00|en}} {{#time:H:i e|2024-03-20T14:00}}]''' (16:00 ώρα Ελλάδος και Κύπρου).

Δυστυχώς, λόγω κάποιων περιορισμών του [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:What is MediaWiki?|MediaWiki]], δεν θα υπάρχει δυνατότητα επεξεργασίας κατά τη διάρκεια της μετατόπισης της κίνησης. Ζητούμε συγγνώμη για την αναστάτωση, και καταβάλλουμε προσπάθειες αυτή να ελαχιστοποιηθεί στο μέλλον. 

'''Για ένα σύντομο χρονικό διάστημα, θα μπορείτε να διαβάσετε όλα τα wiki, αλλά όχι να τα επεξεργαστείτε.'''

*Η επεξεργασία θα είναι αδύνατη για έως και μία ώρα την {{#time:l j xg Y|2024-03-20|el}}.
*Αν προσπαθήσετε να επεξεργαστείτε ή να αποθηκεύσετε μια σελίδα εκείνη την ώρα, θα δείτε ένα μήνυμα σφάλματος. Ελπίζουμε ότι δεν θα χαθούν επεξεργασίες εκείνη την ώρα, αλλά δεν μπορούμε να το εγγυηθούμε. Αν δείτε το μήνυμα σφάλματος, παρακαλούμε περιμένετε μέχρι να επανέλθουν όλα στο κανονικό. Τότε θα μπορέσετε να αποθηκεύσετε την αλλαγή σας. Ωστόσο προτείνουμε να κρατήσετε ένα αντίγραφο των αλλαγών σας, για κάθε ενδεχόμενο.

''Άλλα προβλήματα''

*Οι εργασίες στο υπόβαθρο θα είναι πιο αργές και κάποιες μπορεί να ακυρωθούν. Οι κόκκινοι σύνδεσμοι πιθανώς να μην ενημερώνονται τόσο γρήγορα όσο συνήθως. Αν δημιουργήσετε μια σελίδα που ήδη συνδέεται από κάπου αλλού, ο σύνδεσμος θα παραμείνει κόκκινος για περισσότερο χρόνο από ότι συνήθως. Κάποια διεργασίες που απαιτούν ώρα να εκτελεστούν θα αναγκαστούν να σταματήσουν.
* Αναμένουμε ότι οι αναπτύξεις κώδικα θα γίνουν όπως κάθε άλλη εβδομάδα. Ωστόσο, ορισμένες κατά περίπτωση παγώσεις κώδικα θα μπορούσαν να συμβούν αμέσως, εάν η επιχείρηση τις απαιτήσει στη συνέχεια.

Do you need interpretation support from English to another language? Please reach out to me at ssethi(__AT__)wikimedia.org and [[etherpad:p/language-community-meeting-may-2024|add agenda items to the document here]].

You can also share information about this with the interested project communities you work with or support, and you can also help us translate the procedure into more languages, so people can join the discussions in their own language.

Hello everyone,

After carefully tallying both individual and affiliate votes, the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Charter/Ratification/Voting#Electoral Commission|Charter Electoral Commission]] is pleased to announce the final results of the Wikimedia Movement Charter voting.  

As [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Movement Charter#Thank you for your participation in the Movement Charter ratification vote!|communicated]] by the Charter Electoral Commission, we reached the quorum for both Affiliate and individual votes by the time the vote closed on '''July 9, 23:59 UTC'''. We thank all 2,451 individuals and 129 Affiliate representatives who voted in the ratification process. Your votes and comments are invaluable for the future steps in Movement Strategy.

The final results of the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Charter|Wikimedia Movement Charter]] ratification voting held between 25 June and 9 July 2024 are as follows: 

'''Individual vote:'''

Out of 2,451 individuals who voted as of July 9 23:59 (UTC), 2,446 have been accepted as valid votes. Among these, '''1,710''' voted “yes”; '''623''' voted “no”; and '''113''' selected “–” (neutral). Because the neutral votes don’t count towards the total number of votes cast, 73.30% voted to approve the Charter (1710/2333), while 26.70% voted to reject the Charter (623/2333).

'''Affiliates vote:'''

Out of 129 Affiliates designated voters who voted as of July 9 23:59 (UTC), 129 votes are confirmed as valid votes. Among these, '''93''' voted “yes”; '''18''' voted “no”; and '''18''' selected “–” (neutral). Because the neutral votes don’t count towards the total number of votes cast, 83.78% voted to approve the Charter (93/111), while 16.22% voted to reject the Charter (18/111).

'''Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation:'''

The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees voted '''not to ratify''' the proposed Charter during their special Board meeting on July 8, 2024. The Chair of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees, Nataliia Tymkiv, [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_noticeboard/Board_resolution_and_vote_on_the_proposed_Movement_Charter|shared the result of the vote, the resolution, meeting minutes and proposed next steps]].  

With this, the Wikimedia Movement Charter in its current revision is '''not ratified'''.

We thank you for your participation in this important moment in our movement’s governance.

The Charter Electoral Commission,

[[File:Sub-referencing reuse visual.png|{{#ifeq:{{#dir}}|ltr|right|left}}|400px]]
Hello. For many years, community members have requested an easy way to re-use references with different details. Now, a MediaWiki solution is coming: The new sub-referencing feature will work for wikitext and Visual Editor and will enhance the existing reference system. You can continue to use different ways of referencing, but you will probably encounter sub-references in articles written by other users. More information on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|the project page]].

'''We want your feedback''' to make sure this feature works well for you:

* [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing#Test|Please try]] the current state of development on beta wiki and [[m:Talk:WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing|let us know what you think]]. 
* [[m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Sub-referencing/Sign-up|Sign up here]] to get updates and/or invites to participate in user research activities.

[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Deutschland|Wikimedia Deutschland]]’s [[m:Special:MyLanguage/WMDE Technical Wishes|Technical Wishes]] team is planning to bring this feature to Wikimedia wikis later this year. We will reach out to creators/maintainers of tools and templates related to references beforehand.

Please help us spread the message. --[[m:User:Johannes Richter (WMDE)|Johannes Richter (WMDE)]] ([[m:User talk:Johannes Richter (WMDE)|talk]]) 10:36, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

'''Για ένα σύντομο χρονικό διάστημα, θα μπορείτε να διαβάσετε όλα τα wiki, αλλά όχι να τα επεξεργαστείτε.'''

''Άλλα προβλήματα''

*Οι εργασίες στο υπόβαθρο θα είναι πιο αργές και κάποιες μπορεί να ακυρωθούν. Οι κόκκινοι σύνδεσμοι πιθανώς να μην ενημερώνονται τόσο γρήγορα όσο συνήθως. Αν δημιουργήσετε μια σελίδα που ήδη συνδέεται από κάπου αλλού, ο σύνδεσμος θα παραμείνει κόκκινος για περισσότερο χρόνο από ότι συνήθως. Κάποια διεργασίες που απαιτούν ώρα να εκτελεστούν θα αναγκαστούν να σταματήσουν.
* Αναμένουμε ότι οι αναπτύξεις κώδικα θα γίνουν όπως κάθε άλλη εβδομάδα. Ωστόσο, ορισμένες κατά περίπτωση παγώσεις κώδικα θα μπορούσαν να συμβούν αμέσως, εάν η επιχείρηση τις απαιτήσει στη συνέχεια.

Hello all,

Thank you to everyone who participated in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2024|2024 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election]]. Close to 6000 community members from more than 180 wiki projects have voted.

The following four candidates were the most voted:

# [[User:Kritzolina|Christel Steigenberger]]
# [[User:Nadzik|Maciej Artur Nadzikiewicz]]
# [[User:Victoria|Victoria Doronina]]
# [[User:Laurentius|Lorenzo Losa]]

While these candidates have been ranked through the vote, they still need to be appointed to the Board of Trustees. They need to pass a successful background check and meet the qualifications outlined in the Bylaws. New trustees will be appointed at the next Board meeting in December 2024.

== Ψηφοφορία για την αλλαγή άδειας σε CC-BY-4.0 ==

[See English version at [[:en:Wikinews:2024_Copyright_license_upgrade/other-Wikinews#Draft_to_a_vote]] in case the text does not look right - it is translated with a tool]

Όπως γράφτηκε νωρίτερα, τα Αγγλικά Wikinews και μερικά άλλα Wikinews έχουν τώρα αλλάξει άδεια. Το wiki σας δεν έχει απαντήσει, οπότε ξεκινώ εδώ μια ψηφοφορία προτείνοντας να ενημερώσετε και εσείς την άδεια σε CC-BY-4.0. Παρακαλώ δείτε επίσης [[:m:Requests for comment/Update standard license for Wikinews]] όπου προτείνω να αλλάξει η προεπιλεγμένη άδεια για τα Wikinews ώστε να διασφαλιστεί ότι όλα τα Wikinews έχουν την ίδια άδεια (CC-BY-4.0) εκτός αν επιλέξουν ενεργά μια διαφορετική άδεια.

Η ψηφοφορία θα λήξει στις 20 Ιανουαρίου 2025, με την ημερομηνία αλλαγής να ορίζεται για την 1η Φεβρουαρίου 2025. Όλοι οι χρήστες με περισσότερες από 100 καλές επεξεργασίες μπορούν να ψηφίσουν (εξαιρούνται οι σελίδες συζήτησης).

Η έλλειψη αντίθεσης ή η απουσία σχολίων κατά τη διάρκεια της περιόδου ψηφοφορίας δεν θεωρείται αυτόματα υποστήριξη. Αντίθετα, αντικατοπτρίζει ότι οι συμμετέχοντες είχαν την ευκαιρία να εκφράσουν τις απόψεις τους. Εάν δεν προκύψουν αντιρρήσεις, η ψηφοφορία θα θεωρηθεί ως ενέργεια 'συνέχισης', υποθέτοντας ότι δεν εκφράστηκε καμία αντίθεση (σύμφωνα με [[:m:Requesting wiki configuration changes]]).

Θα εκτιμούσα οποιαδήποτε βοήθεια για να διασφαλιστεί ότι αυτή η ψηφοφορία θα ανακοινωθεί στα σωστά μέρη και ότι το κείμενο θα μεταφραστεί με ακρίβεια. Εάν υπάρχουν λάθη, παρακαλώ βοηθήστε να τα διορθώσετε. Εάν η τοπική πολιτική έχει διαφορετικούς κανόνες από αυτούς που προτείνω, παρακαλώ διορθώστε το το συντομότερο δυνατό.

Λίγες πληροφορίες για τις άδειες
*Η έκδοση 4.0 είναι πιο διεθνής, πιο συμβατή με άλλες άδειες και πιο ευανάγνωστη σε σύγκριση με την έκδοση 2.5.
*Είναι δυνατόν να αντιγράψετε κείμενο με άδεια 2.5 σε 4.0 αλλά όχι το αντίστροφο.
*Είναι δυνατόν να αντιγράψετε κείμενο με άδεια BY σε BY-SA αλλά όχι το αντίστροφο.
*Δεν είναι πλέον δυνατόν να μεταφράσετε άρθρα από τα Αγγλικά Wikinews εκτός αν αναβαθμίσετε σε 4.0.

Το [[foundation:|Ἰδρυμα Wikimedia]] θα μεταστρέψει την κίνηση μεταξύ των κέντρων δεδομένων του. Με αυτόν τον τρόπο θα διασφαλιστεί ότι η Βικιπαίδεια και τα άλλα wiki του Wikimedia θα μπορούν να παραμείνουν ενεργά ακόμα και μετά από μία καταστροφή.

Όλη η κίνηση θα εναλλαχθεί στις '''{{#time:j xg|2025-03-19|el}}'''. Η δοκιμή θα ξεκινήσει στις '''[https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/{{#time:U|2025-03-19T14:00|en}} {{#time:H:i e|2025-03-19T14:00}}]''' (16:00 ώρα Ελλάδος και Κύπρου).

Δυστυχώς, λόγω κάποιων περιορισμών του [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:What is MediaWiki?|MediaWiki]], δεν θα υπάρχει δυνατότητα επεξεργασίας κατά τη διάρκεια της μετατόπισης της κίνησης. Ζητούμε συγγνώμη για την αναστάτωση, και καταβάλλουμε προσπάθειες αυτή να ελαχιστοποιηθεί στο μέλλον. 

Ένα μπάνερ θα προβληθεί σε όλα τα wiki 30 λεπτά πριν ξεκινήσει η επιχείρηση. Αυτό το μπάνερ θα παραμείνει ορατό μέχρι το τέλος της λειτουργίας. 

'''Για ένα σύντομο χρονικό διάστημα, θα μπορείτε να διαβάσετε όλα τα wiki, αλλά όχι να τα επεξεργαστείτε.'''

*Η επεξεργασία θα είναι αδύνατη για έως και μία ώρα την {{#time:l j xg Y|2025-03-19|el}}.
*Αν προσπαθήσετε να επεξεργαστείτε ή να αποθηκεύσετε μια σελίδα εκείνη την ώρα, θα δείτε ένα μήνυμα σφάλματος. Ελπίζουμε ότι δεν θα χαθούν επεξεργασίες εκείνη την ώρα, αλλά δεν μπορούμε να το εγγυηθούμε. Αν δείτε το μήνυμα σφάλματος, παρακαλούμε περιμένετε μέχρι να επανέλθουν όλα στο κανονικό. Τότε θα μπορέσετε να αποθηκεύσετε την αλλαγή σας. Ωστόσο προτείνουμε να κρατήσετε ένα αντίγραφο των αλλαγών σας, για κάθε ενδεχόμενο.

''Άλλα προβλήματα''

*Οι εργασίες στο υπόβαθρο θα είναι πιο αργές και κάποιες μπορεί να ακυρωθούν. Οι κόκκινοι σύνδεσμοι πιθανώς να μην ενημερώνονται τόσο γρήγορα όσο συνήθως. Αν δημιουργήσετε μια σελίδα που ήδη συνδέεται από κάπου αλλού, ο σύνδεσμος θα παραμείνει κόκκινος για περισσότερο χρόνο από ότι συνήθως. Κάποια διεργασίες που απαιτούν ώρα να εκτελεστούν θα αναγκαστούν να σταματήσουν.
* Αναμένουμε ότι οι αναπτύξεις κώδικα θα γίνουν όπως κάθε άλλη εβδομάδα. Ωστόσο, ορισμένες κατά περίπτωση παγώσεις κώδικα θα μπορούσαν να συμβούν αμέσως, εάν η επιχείρηση τις απαιτήσει στη συνέχεια.
* Το [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/GitLab|GitLab]] δεν θα είναι διαθέσιμο για περίπου 90 λεπτά.

Το έργο αυτό ενδέχεται να αναβληθεί εάν είναι απαραίτητο. Μπορείτε να [[wikitech:Switch_Datacenter|διαβάσετε το πρόγραμμα στο wikitech.wikimedia.org]]. Οι όποιες αλλαγές θα ανακοινωθούν στο πρόγραμμα.

== We will be enabling the new Charts extension on your wiki soon! ==

''(Apologies for posting in English)''

Hi all! We have good news to share regarding the ongoing problem with graphs and charts affecting all wikis that use them.

As you probably know, the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Graph|old Graph extension]] was disabled in 2023 [[listarchive:list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/EWL4AGBEZEDMNNFTM4FRD4MHOU3CVESO/|due to security reasons]]. We’ve worked in these two years to find a solution that could replace the old extension, and provide a safer and better solution to users who wanted to showcase graphs and charts in their articles. We therefore developed the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart|Charts extension]], which will be replacing the old Graph extension and potentially also the [[:mw:Extension:EasyTimeline|EasyTimeline extension]].

After successfully deploying the extension on Italian, Swedish, and Hebrew Wikipedia, as well as on MediaWiki.org, as part of a pilot phase, we are now happy to announce that we are moving forward with the next phase of deployment, which will also include your wiki.

The deployment will happen in batches, and will start from '''May 6'''. Please, consult [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart/Project#Deployment Timeline|our page on MediaWiki.org]] to discover when the new Charts extension will be deployed on your wiki. You can also [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart|consult the documentation]] about the extension on MediaWiki.org.

If you have questions, need clarifications, or just want to express your opinion about it, please refer to the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension_talk:Chart/Project|project’s talk page on Mediawiki.org]], or ping me directly under this thread. If you encounter issues using Charts once it gets enabled on your wiki, please report it on the [[:mw:Extension_talk:Chart/Project|talk page]] or at [[phab:tag/charts|Phabricator]].

Hello all! We opened a discussion on Meta about a very delicate issue for the development of [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Abstract Wikipedia|Abstract Wikipedia]]: where to store the abstract content that will be developed through functions from Wikifunctions and data from Wikidata. Since some of the hypothesis involve your project, we wanted to hear your thoughts too. 

We want to make the decision process clear: we do not yet know which option we want to use, which is why we are consulting here. We will take the arguments from the Wikimedia communities into account, and we want to consult with the different communities and hear arguments that will help us with the decision. The decision will be made and communicated after the consultation period by the Foundation.

You can read the various hypothesis and have your say at [[:m:Abstract Wikipedia/Location of Abstract Content|Abstract Wikipedia/Location of Abstract Content]].

Dear all,

This year, the term of 2 (two) Community- and Affiliate-selected Trustees on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees will come to an end [1]. The Board invites the whole movement to participate in this year’s selection process and vote to fill those seats.

The Elections Committee will oversee this process with support from Foundation staff [2]. The Governance Committee, composed of trustees who are not candidates in the 2025 community-and-affiliate-selected trustee selection process (Raju Narisetti, Shani Evenstein Sigalov, Lorenzo Losa, Kathy Collins, Victoria Doronina and Esra’a Al Shafei) [3], is tasked with providing Board oversight for the 2025 trustee selection process and for keeping the Board informed. More details on the roles of the Elections Committee, Board, and staff are here [4].

Here are the key planned dates:

* May 22 – June 5: Announcement (this communication) and call for questions period [6]
* June 17 – July 1, 2025: Call for candidates
* July 2025: If needed, affiliates vote to shortlist candidates if more than 10 apply [5]
* August 2025: Campaign period
* August – September 2025: Two-week community voting period
* October – November 2025: Background check of selected candidates
* Board’s Meeting in December 2025: New trustees seated

Learn more about the 2025 selection process - including the detailed timeline, the candidacy process, the campaign rules, and the voter eligibility criteria - on this Meta-wiki page [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2025|[link]]].

'''Call for Questions'''

In each selection process, the community has the opportunity to submit questions for the Board of Trustees candidates to answer. The Election Committee selects questions from the list developed by the community for the candidates to answer. Candidates must answer all the required questions in the application in order to be eligible; otherwise their application will be disqualified. This year, the Election Committee will select 5 questions for the candidates to answer. The selected questions may be a combination of what’s been submitted from the community, if they’re alike or related. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2025/Questions_for_candidates|[link]]]

'''Election Volunteers'''

Another way to be involved with the 2025 selection process is to be an Election Volunteer. Election Volunteers are a bridge between the Elections Committee and their respective community. They help ensure their community is represented and mobilize them to vote. Learn more about the program and how to join on this Meta-wiki page [[m:Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2025/Election_volunteers|[link].]]

== &lt;span lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;Sister Projects Task Force reviews Wikispore and Wikinews&lt;/span&gt; ==

&lt;div lang=&quot;en&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot;&gt;
&lt;section begin=&quot;message&quot;/&gt;
Dear Wikimedia Community,

The [[m:Wikimedia Foundation Community Affairs Committee|Community Affairs Committee (CAC)]]  of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees assigned [[m:Wikimedia Foundation Community Affairs Committee/Sister Projects Task Force|the Sister Projects Task Force (SPTF)]] to update and implement a procedure for assessing the lifecycle of Sister Projects – wiki [[m:Wikimedia projects|projects supported by Wikimedia Foundation (WMF)]].

A vision of relevant, accessible, and impactful free knowledge has always guided the Wikimedia Movement. As the ecosystem of Wikimedia projects continues to evolve, it is crucial that we periodically review existing projects to ensure they still align with our goals and community capacity.

Despite their noble intent, some projects may no longer effectively serve their original purpose. '''Reviewing such projects is not about giving up – it's about responsible stewardship of shared resources'''. Volunteer time, staff support, infrastructure, and community attention are finite, and the non-technical costs tend to grow significantly as our ecosystem has entered a different age of the internet than the one we were founded in. Supporting inactive projects or projects that didn't meet our ambitions can unintentionally divert these resources from areas with more potential impact.

Moreover, maintaining projects that no longer reflect the quality and reliability of the Wikimedia name stands for, involves a reputational risk. An abandoned or less reliable project affects trust in the Wikimedia movement.

Lastly, '''failing to sunset or reimagine projects that are no longer working can make it much harder to start new ones'''. When the community feels bound to every past decision – no matter how outdated – we risk stagnation. A healthy ecosystem must allow for evolution, adaptation, and, when necessary, letting go. If we create the expectation that every project must exist indefinitely, we limit our ability to experiment and innovate.

Because of this, SPTF reviewed two requests concerning the lifecycle of the Sister Projects to work through and demonstrate the review process. We chose Wikispore as a case study for a possible new Sister Project opening and Wikinews as a case study for a review of an existing project. Preliminary findings were discussed with the CAC, and a community consultation on both proposals was recommended.

=== Wikispore ===

The [[m:Wikispore|application to consider Wikispore]] was submitted in 2019. SPTF decided to review this request in more depth because rather than being concentrated on a specific topic, as most of the proposals for the new Sister Projects are, Wikispore has the potential to nurture multiple start-up Sister Projects.

After careful consideration, the SPTF has decided '''not to recommend''' Wikispore as a Wikimedia Sister Project. Considering the current activity level, the current arrangement allows '''better flexibility''' and experimentation while WMF provides core infrastructural support. 

We acknowledge the initiative's potential and seek community input on what would constitute a sufficient level of activity and engagement to reconsider its status in the future.

As part of the process, we shared the decision with the Wikispore community and invited one of its leaders, Pharos, to an SPTF meeting.

Currently, we especially invite feedback on measurable criteria indicating the project's readiness, such as contributor numbers, content volume, and sustained community support. This would clarify the criteria sufficient for opening a new Sister Project, including possible future Wikispore re-application. However, the numbers will always be a guide because any number can be gamed.

=== Wikinews ===

We chose to review Wikinews among existing Sister Projects because it is the one for which we have observed the highest level of concern in multiple ways.

Since the SPTF was convened in 2023, its members have asked for the community's opinions during conferences and community calls about Sister Projects that did not fulfil their promise in the Wikimedia movement.[https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:WCNA_2024._Sister_Projects_-_opening%3F_closing%3F_merging%3F_splitting%3F.pdf &lt;nowiki&gt;[1]&lt;/nowiki&gt;][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Community_Affairs_Committee/Sister_Projects_Task_Force#Wikimania_2023_session_%22Sister_Projects:_past,_present_and_the_glorious_future%22 &lt;nowiki&gt;[2]&lt;/nowiki&gt;][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConvention_francophone/2024/Programme/Quelle_proc%C3%A9dure_pour_ouvrir_ou_fermer_un_projet_%3F &lt;nowiki&gt;[3]&lt;/nowiki&gt;] Wikinews was the leading candidate for an evaluation because people from multiple language communities proposed it. Additionally, by most measures, it is the least active Sister Project, with the greatest drop in activity over the years.

While the Language Committee routinely opens and closes language versions of the Sister Projects in small languages, there has never been a valid proposal to close Wikipedia in major languages or any project in English. This is not true for Wikinews, where there was a proposal to close English Wikinews, which gained some traction but did not result in any action[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposals_for_closing_projects/Closure_of_English_Wikinews &lt;nowiki&gt;[4]&lt;/nowiki&gt;][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConvention_francophone/2024/Programme/Quelle_proc%C3%A9dure_pour_ouvrir_ou_fermer_un_projet_%3F &lt;nowiki&gt;[5]&lt;/nowiki&gt;, see section 5] as well as a draft proposal to close all languages of Wikinews[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Proposals_for_closing_projects/Archive_2#Close_Wikinews_completely,_all_languages? &lt;nowiki&gt;[6]&lt;/nowiki&gt;].

[[:c:File:Sister Projects Taskforce Wikinews review 2024.pdf|Initial metrics]] compiled by WMF staff also support the community's concerns about Wikinews.

Based on this report, SPTF recommends a community reevaluation of Wikinews. We conclude that its current structure and activity levels are the lowest among the existing sister projects. SPTF also recommends pausing the opening of new language editions while the consultation runs.

SPTF brings this analysis to a discussion and welcomes discussions of alternative outcomes, including potential restructuring efforts or integration with other Wikimedia initiatives.

'''Options''' mentioned so far (which might be applied to just low-activity languages or all languages) include but are not limited to:
*Restructure how Wikinews works and is linked to other current events efforts on the projects,
*Merge the content of Wikinews into the relevant language Wikipedias, possibly in a new namespace,
*Merge content into compatibly licensed external projects,
*Archive Wikinews projects.
Your insights and perspectives are invaluable in shaping the future of these projects. We encourage all interested community members to share their thoughts on the relevant discussion pages or through other designated feedback channels.

=== Feedback and next steps ===

We'd be grateful if you want to take part in a conversation on the future of these projects and the review process. We are setting up two different project pages: [[m:Public consultation about Wikispore|Public consultation about Wikispore]] and [[m:Public consultation about Wikinews|Public consultation about Wikinews]]. Please participate between 27 June 2025 and 27 July 2025, after which we will summarize the discussion to move forward. You can write in your own language.

I will also host a community conversation 16th July Wednesday 11.00 UTC and 17th July Thursday 17.00 UTC (call links to follow shortly) and will be around at Wikimania for more discussions.
