Chutte section-chîn dait êt' translatée en Nouormand.

L'êcrithie en langue Nouormande
Ichîn, nou peut faithe sèrvi les difféthentes manniéthes d'êcrithe lé Nouormand d'la Grand'-Tèrre, lé Jèrriais ou l'Dgèrnésiais. Les contributions en Jèrriais et en Dgèrnésiais dévthaient êt' êcrites s'lon les dictionnaithes - les contributions en Nouormand d'la Grand'-Tèrre dévthaient êt' êcrites s'lon l'système Lechanteur (mais bein seux qu'la manniéthe d'êcrithe d'autcheune contribution peut êt' amendée pus tard).
Pouor achteu, j'avons des banniéthes pouor mèrtchi la manniéthe dé langue qu'nou fait sèrvi pouor des pages ou des sections. Changiz-les ou griyiz vot' banniéthe à vous, s'lon vot' langue, vot' loçeis, vot' patouès...!
Salut, je suis le sysop de la wikipédie cornique. Si notre expérience de controverses orthographiques offrent un modele (ce qui n'est pas établi, vous comprenez !) c'est que les normes différentes ne posent pas de vrais problemes a condition qu'il y ait bonne volonté et du respect mutuel. Les articles on les lient par une redirection au besoin, selon l'orthographe ; pas de désastre quoi. Il est peut-etre utile de différencier les dialectes ouvertement, comme vous l'avez indiqué juste au-dessus là. Pour le reste, on a laissé faire sans trop de difficultés. Mais les écoles orthographiques du cornique se méfient farouchement de facon générale ; si on a évité les conflicts c'est peut-etre surtout parce que nos contributeurs ont le plus souvent choisi d'utiliser le meme systeme (le kemmyn, qui est d'ailleurs le plus fréquent)... Soyez donc flexibles, évitez d'imposer une solution unique sur les autres, respectez le NPOV : voila les résultats de notre petite entreprise. 128.135.181.170 20:47, 27 March 2006 (UTC) =kw:User:QuartierLatin1968

Ch'est eune reide bouone idaée de c'menchi à faire eune liste de ches articlles-lo qùi n'ount paé de photo. Je pense, à m'n avis, qùi fâorait muus la chaungi de pllèche, coume la syne du desous (ceus' des articlles qùi deivent paé aveî de photo).

Une Wikipédia en picard?/ A Picard Wikipedia?
Peut-être il serait une drôle idée de commencer une Wikipédia en picard. Comme on voit ici et ici, les Wikipédias wallonne et normande sont assez gagnantes, et picard a une code ISO 639-3 (pcd). Surtout, l'occitan et le francoprovençal ont ses propres Wikipédias aussi, donc pourquoi pas essayer de la créer? On pourrait commencer directement d'écrire à http://incubator.wikimedia.org/Pcd/. Que pensez-vous?
Hi, it might be a nice idea to start a Wikipedia in Picard. As can be seen here and here, the Norman and Walloon Wikipedias are doing well, and Picard (also) has an ISO 639-3 code (namely pcd). Moreover there are already Wikipedias for Occitan and Francoprovençal, so why not try creating it? We can start out immediately at http://incubator.wikimedia.org/Pcd/. What do you think?

Lien vers la Wikipedia siciliène
Bonjour, pourriez-vous s'il vous plaît faire un lien, à partir du menu à gauche de votre page d'accueil, et qui irait en direction de la Wikipedia siciliène dont l'adresse est http://scn.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pàggina_principali
Je vous demande cela car j'ai vu que la Wikipedia siciliène a déjà fait un lien vers votre Wikipedia normandophone (dans le menu à gauche de leur page d'accueil), et cela me semblerait un aimable geste de reconnaissance de faire la même chose en retour dans la Wikipedia en Normand. Merci de votre collaboration, et eccellente continuation à tous! Cordialement. Marc
Post Scriptum: La langue siciliène comporte de nombreux mots et expressions d'origine normande qui datent de la conquête de la Sicile par les Chevaliers Normands (il y a presque mille ans), et l'établissement de ceux-ci (puis de leurs familles) sur place. Ces Normands, considérés (encore aujourd'hui) comme les sauveurs de l'île, ont régné sur la Sicile plusieurs années et bien évidemment, de nombreux termes normands ont pénétré peu à peu la langue siciliène ancienne (greco-arabo-latine) pour nous léguer une langue siciliène actuelle constellée de normandismes.
Création d'un portail supportant les wikipédias dans les langues sont "traditionnellement présentes sur l'espace étatique français" ?
A l'image de l'intéressant portail [1] réunissant les déclinaisons des wikipédias dans les langues traditionnellement présentes en Belgique (Néerlandais, français, allemand, wallon, luxembourgeois, francique ripuaire, flamand occidental, limbourgeois...), je propose que l'on instaure une déclinaison similaire pour les langues "traditionnellement présentes sur l'espace étatique français" Répartition géographique en France métropolitaine et régions limitrophes(cette définition qui se veut politiquement neutre pouvant bien sûr être reformulée).
Ce portail comporterait en l'état actuel des wikis existants des liens vers les versions en alémanique, arpitan, basque, breton, catalan, corse, flamand, français, luxembourgeois - parlé dans un tiers de la Lorraine thioise, normand, occitan et wallon.
Bien évidemment ceci amènera à plusieurs questionnements :
- faut-il inclure le corse ? (malgré la discontinuité territoriale et des conceptions identitaires divergentes)
- faut-il inclure les langues des "Départements et Territoires d'Outre-Mer" - créole(s), mahohi... - ? Ou privilégier pour celles-ci (c'est mon avis) un portail régional du type : créole(s), papiamento, nahuatl, maya, anglais, espagnol, français, néerlandais... ?
- faut-il inclure les langues de l'immigration en France ? Personnellement, je serais plutôt contre (car autant dans ce cas présenter 150 idiomes), mais j'admets sans peine que deux à trois langues fortement représentées dans l'immigration (arabe, chinois, portugais... ) y auraient leur place.
Pour ma part j'y incluerais pleinement l'esperanto tant en raison du nombre de contributeurs francophones que de sa proximité ontologique avec le projet wikipédien.
Que pensez-vous de cet éventuel portail ?

Est [sɛʀk] la prononcation correcte en Francais standard?
--84.166.187.189de:Benutzer:Hannes2 20:25, 21 de jaunvyi 2007 (UTC) If my French is not understandable, please tell me, I'll ask in English then.
Sèr est correct en jersiais, mais evidemment c'est "Ser" en sercquiais (selon la façon de Liddicoat).
[sɛʀ], je crois. (Sinon, Man vyi peut me corriger.)
Selon la wikipédia française, la prononciation c'est comme "ser" ([sɛʀ], je pense). Lé C'valyi d'Jade 21:45, 21 de jaunvyi 2007 (UTC)
J'aurais dit que [sɛʀk] serait correcte en français (c'est ce qu'on dit chez nous, et Liddicoat remarque qu'à Sercq on distingue [sɛʀ] en sercquiais et [sɛʀk] en français), mais de toute façon il se peut qu'on dise [sɛʀ] à la normande en français à la Côte des Îles. Il n'y a pas une orthographe correcte en sercquiais - on écrit selon son goût, les uns à la jersiaise, les autres à l'anglaise.

(The "did you know" phrases are all bunched up on the side, and take up much more vertical space than the "pretty picture" on the page dé garde.

Bot policy
Hello. To facilitate steward granting of bot access, I suggest implementing the standard bot policy on this wiki. This will involve creating a redirect to this page from Project:Bot policy, and adding a line at the top noting that it is used here. In particular, this policy allows automatic acceptance of known interlanguage linking bots (if this page says that is acceptable), which form the vast majority of such requests.
Please read the text at m:Bot policy before commenting. If you object, please say so; it will be implemented in one week if there is no objection, since it is particularly written to streamline bot requests on wikis with little or no community interested in bot access requests. Carsrac 15:08, 15 de juin 2008 (UTC)
Proposition pour un avenir radieux
Bonjour,
S’il est permis à un Étranger (), s’exprimant de plus en une langue étrangère ()…
J’ai examiné la Wikipedia normande et ai constaté qu’elle n’avait pas (encore) opté pour une franche résolution du problème dialectal du normand. L’auteur de la section L'êcrithie en langue Nouormande a certes mis quelques modèles utiles au point, mais il n’y a pas une politique d’ensemble de signalisation linguistique. Au cours de mes visites d’autres Wikipedia, j’ai rencontré quelque chose qui approche de la perfection en ce domaine ; ce sont nos amis d’Italie du Nord, de langue émiliano-romagnole (plus proche du français que de l’italien !), confrontés à un grand nombre de dialectes, huit principaux, et comme beaucoup, à l’absence d’un parler standardisé, qui ont mis au point un magnifique système de choix des dialectes pour chaque article publié. Je vous invite à consulter une page que j’ai commise – très médiocre sur le fond, mais ne vous préoccupez, je vous prie, que de la forme… – afin de l’illustrer au mieux : Końskowola. En haut, à droite, le choix du dialecte d’affichage ; les quatre alternent à volonté… Séduits, vous pouvez regarder ailleurs : Langua emiglièna-rumagnôla, Itagliàn… La même chose pourrait être assez aisément reproductible ici. Il faut tout d’abord recenser les « parlers » susceptibles d’être utilisés par cette Wikipedia (mais pas de panique, la liste peut évoluer à volonté) ; s’accorder sur une codification (le plus simple aurait été d’utiliser la codification du SIL, malheureusement, elle n’est pas descendue jusqu’au niveau dialectal du normand), et, éventuellement, une illustration. Voici – en français… – ce que j’ai recensé en parcourant vos pages (le nom français, le nom natif, le statut linguistique que je me fais du parler : L = langue ; D = dialecte ; P = parler – aucune connotation négative dans ces termes –, le code de trois lettres proposé, un symbole – qui pourrait être un drapeau ou un blason) :
La phrase de la « boîte de choix » pourrait être rédigée en « normand standard », c’est-à-dire, en français : « Page disponible en versions » ; suivent les noms natifs des parlers. La page est présentée selon chaque parler par « Article en langue/dialecte/parler X » avec emblème.
La mise au point de ce système n’est pas très compliquée (je l’ai exporté – partiellement, malheureusement – dans les Wikipedia nahuatl et bulgare), mais il y a un obstacle, à mes yeux, de taille : elle nécessite la collaboration des administrateurs. C’est-à-dire le bon vouloir de ces Messieurs-Dames, qui ont vite fait de considérer la Wikipedia comme leur Wikipedia, où ils font ce qu’ils veulent, quand ils le veulent. (Je ne connais pas les administrateurs de cette Wikipedia, mais je parle d’expérience d’ailleurs.) Mais on n’en est pas encore là.
P.-S. : Je précise que je ne suis aucunement l’auteur du merveilleux système développé par quelques émiliano-romagnolophones de talent. Je m’efforce – sans succès : il va très à l’encontre du « jacobinisme » dominant, et des caprices des administrateurs, qui, on le sait, savent tout mieux que tout le monde –, de le promouvoir.
Double redirections
Salut,
J'ai créé le compte User:CoinCoin et je comptais utiliser ce compte pour faire tourner un bot de corrections des double redirections. Serait il possible d'avoir le flag bot ? Sinon, qu'elle est la procédure à adopter ? Guillaumito 19:14, 9 de setembe 2008 (UTC)
Global bots
Hello. The standard bot policy was updated to allow global bots, which are now technically possible. These are trusted bots that will be given bot access on every wiki that allows global bots (the local policy or request page must explicitly allow them, or they won't get access on this wiki). The current requirements for global bots are:
a global bot must only maintain interlanguage links or fix double-redirects;
a global bot must have already been active on several wikis, with long-term contributions demonstrating its trustworthiness.
Does anyone object to allowing global bots on this wiki? I'll update the local policy in a week if there are no objections. Thanks. Julian 10:22, 11 d'octobe 2008 (UTC)
No objection from me. Man vyi 15:58, 11 d'octobe 2008 (UTC)

Fundraising 2010: Beat Jimmy Challenge
The Fundraising Committee is issuing all interested community members a challenge: we want you to beat Jimmy. The appeal from Jimmy Wales and the corresponding banner have been tested head-to-head with other successful banners, and the results are clear: it's our best performing message... by a lot. This year we have a lofty fundraising goal; we need all of our banners to bring in donations like the Jimmy Appeal, but no one wants to keep the Jimmy banner up for two months. We want to run donor quotes, and other wonderful ideas, but we have to have banners that work as well as or better than the Jimmy appeal.
We've just released the highlights from a donor focus group, and the results of our donor survey. With one month to the launch of the fundraiser, the messages we test must be driven by data from our tests and surveys - we can no longer rely on instinct alone.
We've redesigned our fundraising meta pages with the Jimmy challenge; check out the survey results and propose/discuss banners that reflect these findings. Add the banners you think will 'beat Jimmy' here to be tested Tuesday October 12 against Jimmy. -Dgultekin 18:58, 6 d'octobe 2010 (UTC)
Fundraising 2010
Hello Wikimedians, my name is Kelly and I am working for the Wikimedia Foundation during the 2010 Fundraiser. My job is to be the liaison between the Nouormand community and the Foundation. This year's fundraiser is intended to be a collaborative and global effort, we recognize that banner messages that perform well in the United States don't necessarily translate well, or appeal to international audiences.
I'm contacting you as I am currently looking for translators who are willing to contribute to this project, helping to translate and localize messages into Nouormand and suggesting messages that would appeal to Nouormand readers on the Fundraising Meta Page. We've started the setup on meta for both banner submission, statistical analysis, and grouping volunteers together. Use the talk pages on meta, talk to your local communities, talk to others, talk to us, and add your feedback to the proposed messages as well! I look forward to working with you during this year's fundraiser.
Please translate this message into Nouorman if you can and post it below. Thanks! Klyman 17:53, 14 d'octobe 2010 (UTC)
An urgent translation request
Greetings :) As you may have noticed, the banners are up and we are in the final stages of testing before the official kickoff on Monday the 15th for this year's WMF fundraiser. We are in a bit of a time crunch to get the Nouormand translations in before the Fundraiser launch on Monday. We really don't want to have English pages on the Nouormand projects. This is a calll to to community to get involved, help translate and recruit translators to get all the fundraising materials completed. Here is the translation hub with the Jimmy Appeal, Core Messages, FAQ and Benefactors pages that need to be completed Translations. Once these are completed, we can build the new landing pages and localize the fundraiser! Thanks so much, let me know if there are any questions!Klyman 19:09, 13 de novembe 2010 (UTC)
The Wikimedia Foundation, at the direction of the Board of Trustees, will be holding a vote to determine whether members of the community support the creation and usage of an opt-in personal image filter, which would allow readers to voluntarily screen particular types of images strictly for their own account.
Further details and educational materials will be available shortly. The referendum is scheduled for 12-27 August, 2011, and will be conducted on servers hosted by a neutral third party. Referendum details, officials, voting requirements, and supporting materials will be posted at Meta:Image filter referendum shortly.
Sorry for delivering you a message in English. Please help translate the pages on the referendum on Meta and join the translators mailing list.

Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is discussing changes to its Terms of Use. The discussion can be found at Talk:Terms of use. Everyone is invited to join in. Because the new version of Terms of use is not in final form, we are not able to present official translations of it. Volunteers are welcome to translate it, as German volunteers have done at m:Terms of use/de, but we ask that you note at the top that the translation is unofficial and may become outdated as the English version is changed.

Open Call for 2012 Wikimedia Fellowship Applicants
I apologize that you are receiving this message in English. Please
help translate it.
Do you want to help attract new contributors to Wikimedia projects?
Do you want to improve retention of our existing editors?
Do you want to strengthen our community by diversifying its base and increasing the overall number of excellent participants around the world?
The Wikimedia Foundation is seeking Community Fellows and project ideas for the Community Fellowship Program. A Fellowship is a temporary position at the Wikimedia Foundation in order to work on a specific project or set of projects. Submissions for 2012 are encouraged to focus on the theme of improving editor retention and increasing participation in Wikimedia projects. If interested, please submit a project idea or apply to be a fellow by January 15, 2012. Please visit https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Fellowships for more information.
Wikimedia Foundation is getting ready to push out 1.19 to all the WMF-hosted wikis. As we finish wrapping up our code review, you can test the new version right now on beta.wmflabs.org. For more information, please read the release notes or the start of the final announcement.
The following are the areas that you will probably be most interested in:
New common*.css files usable by skins instead of having to copy piles of generic styles from MonoBook or Vector's css.
The default user signature now contains a talk link in addition to the user link.
Searching blocked usernames in block log is now clearer.
Better timezone recognition in user preferences.
Improved diff readability for colorblind people.
The interwiki links table can now be accessed also when the interwiki cache is used (used in the API and the Interwiki extension).
More gender support (for instance in logs and user lists).
Language converter improved, e.g. it now works depending on the page content language.
Time and number-formatting magic words also now depend on the page content language.
Bidirectional support further improved after 1.18.
Report any problems on the labs beta wiki and we'll work to address them before they software is released to the production wikis.
Note that this cluster does have SUL but it is not integrated with SUL in production, so you'll need to create another account. You should avoid using the same password as you use here. — Global message delivery 16:27, 15 de jaunvyi 2012 (UTC)
MediaWiki 1.19
(Apologies if this message isn't in your language.) The Wikimedia Foundation is planning to upgrade MediaWiki (the software powering this wiki) to its latest version this month. You can help to test it before it is enabled, to avoid disruption and breakage. More information is available in the full announcement. Thank you for your understanding.
The Wikimedia Foundation is planning to do limited testing of IPv6 on June 2-3. If there are not too many problems, we may fully enable IPv6 on World IPv6 day (June 6), and keep it enabled.
What this means for your project:
At least on June 2-3, 2012, you may see a small number of edits from IPv6 addresses, which are in the form "2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334". See e.g. w:en:IPv6 address. These addresses should behave like any other IP address: You can leave messages on their talk pages; you can track their contributions; you can block them. (See the full version of this announcement for notes on range blocks.)
In the mid term, some user scripts and tools will need to be adapted for IPv6.
We suspect that IPv6 usage is going to be very low initially, meaning that abuse should be manageable, and we will assist in the monitoring of the situation.
Read the full version of this announcement on how to test the behavior of IPv6 with various tools and how to leave bug reports, and to find a fuller analysis of the implications of the IPv6 migration.
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2011 Picture of the Year competition is now open. We are interested in your opinion as to which images qualify to be the Picture of the Year 2011. Any user registered at Commons or a Wikimedia wiki SUL-related to Commons with more than 75 edits before 1 April 2012 (UTC) is welcome to vote and, of course everyone is welcome to view!
About 600 of the best of Wikimedia Common's photos, animations, movies and graphics were chosen –by the international Wikimedia Commons community– out of 12 million files during 2011 and are now called Featured Pictures.
From professional animal and plant shots to breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying the world's best architecture, maps, emblems, diagrams created with the most modern technology, and impressive human portraits, Commons Features Pictures of all flavors.
We regret that you receive this message in English; we intended to use banners to notify you in your native language but there was both, human and technical resistance.

Help decide about more than $10 million of Wikimedia donations in the coming year
(Apologies if this message isn't in your language. Please consider translating it)
Hi,
As many of you are aware, the Wikimedia Board of Trustees recently initiated important changes in the way that money is being distributed within the Wikimedia movement. As part of this, a new community-led "Funds Dissemination Committee" (FDC) is currently being set up. Already in 2012-13, its recommendations will guide the decisions about the distribution of over 10 million US dollars among the Foundation, chapters and other eligible entities.
Now, seven capable, knowledgeable and trustworthy community members are sought to volunteer on the initial Funds Dissemination Committee. It is expected to take up its work in September. In addition, a community member is sought to be the Ombudsperson for the FDC process. If you are interested in joining the committee, read the call for volunteers. Nominations are planned to close on August 15.

You might also be interested in the idea to create a central Wikipedia Library where approved editors would have access to all participating resource donors. Add your feedback to the Community Fellowship proposal. Apologies for the English message (translate here). Go sign up :) --Ocaasi (talk) 02:22, 16 d'aôt 2012 (UTC)
Request for Comment: Legal Fees Assistance Program
I apologize for addressing you in English. I would be grateful if you could translate this message into your language.
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a request for comment on a proposed program that could provide legal assistance to users in specific support roles who are named in a legal complaint as a defendant because of those roles. We wanted to be sure that your community was aware of this discussion and would have a chance to participate in that discussion.
If this page is not the best place to publicize this request for comment, please help spread the word to those who may be interested in participating. (If you'd like to help translating the "request for comment", program policy or other pages into your language and don't know how the translation system works, please come by my user talk page at m:User talk:Mdennis (WMF).

As some of you might already have heard Wikimedia Deutschland is working on a new Wikimedia project. It is called m:Wikidata. The goal of Wikidata is to become a central data repository for the Wikipedias, its sister projects and the world. In the future it will hold data like the number of inhabitants of a country, the date of birth of a famous person or the length of a river. These can then be used in all Wikimedia projects and outside of them.
The project is divided into three phases and "we are getting close to roll-out the first phase". The phases are:
language links in the Wikipedias (making it possible to store the links between the language editions of an article just once in Wikidata instead of in each linked article)
infoboxes (making it possible to store the data that is currently in infoboxes in one central place and share the data)
lists (making it possible to create lists and similar things based on queries to Wikidata so they update automatically when new data is added or modified)
It'd be great if you could join us, test the demo version, provide feedback and take part in the development of Wikidata. You can find all the relevant information including an FAQ and sign-up links for our on-wiki newsletter on the Wikidata page on Meta.
For further discussions please use this talk page (if you are uncomfortable writing in English you can also write in your native language there) or point me to the place where your discussion is happening so I can answer there.
Upcoming software changes - please report any problems
(Apologies if this message isn't in your language. Please consider translating it)
All Wikimedia wikis - including this one - will soon be upgraded with new and possibly disruptive code. This process starts today and finishes on October 24 (see the upgrade schedule & code details).
Please watch for problems with:
revision diffs
templates
CSS and JavaScript pages (like user scripts)
bots
PDF export
images, video, and sound, especially scaling sizes
Fundraising localization: volunteers from outside the USA needed
Please translate for your local community
Hello All,
The Wikimedia Foundation's Fundraising team have begun our 'User Experience' project, with the goal of understanding the donation experience in different countries outside the USA and enhancing the localization of our donation pages. I am searching for volunteers to spend 30 minutes on a Skype chat with me, reviewing their own country's donation pages. It will be done on a 'usability' format (I will ask you to read the text and go through the donation flow) and will be asking your feedback in the meanwhile.
The only pre-requisite is for the volunteer to actually live in the country and to have access to at least one donation method that we offer for that country (mainly credit/debit card, but also real-time banking like IDEAL, E-wallets, etc...) so we can do a live test and see if the donation goes through. All volunteers will be reimbursed of the donations that eventually succeed (and they will be low amounts, like 1-2 dollars)
By helping us you are actually helping thousands of people to support our mission of free knowledge across the world. Please sing up and help us with our 'User Experience' project! :)
If you are interested (or know of anyone who could be) please email ppena@wikimedia.org. All countries needed (excepting USA)!

Be a Wikimedia fundraising "User Experience" volunteer!
Thank you to everyone who volunteered last year on the Wikimedia fundraising 'User Experience' project. We have talked to many different people in different countries and their feedback has helped us immensely in restructuring our pages. If you haven't heard of it yet, the 'User Experience' project has the goal of understanding the donation experience in different countries (outside the USA) and enhancing the localization of our donation pages.
I am (still) searching for volunteers to spend some time on a Skype chat with me, reviewing their own country's donation pages. It will be done on a 'usability' format (I will ask you to read the text and go through the donation flow) and will be asking your feedback in the meanwhile.
The only pre-requisite is for the volunteer to actually live in the country and to have access to at least one donation method that we offer for that country (mainly credit/debit card, but also real time banking like IDEAL, E-wallets, etc...) so we can do a live test and see if the donation goes through. **All volunteers will be reimbursed of the donations that eventually succeed (and they will be very low amounts, like 1-2 dollars)**
By helping us you are actually helping thousands of people to support our mission of free knowledge across the world. If you are interested (or know of anyone who could be) please email ppena@wikimedia.org. All countries needed (excepting USA)!!
Thanks!

Wikidata phase 1 (language links) coming to this Wikipedia
Sorry for writing in English. I hope someone can translate this locally.
Wikidata has been in development for a few months now. It is now time for the roll-out of the first part of it on your Wikipedia. Phase 1 is the support for the management of language links. It is already being used on the Hungarian, Hebrew, Italian and English Wikipedias. The next step is to enable the extension on all other Wikipedias. We have currently planned this for March 6.
What is Wikidata?
Wikidata is a central place to store data that you can usually find in infoboxes. Think of it as something like Wikimedia Commons but for data (like the number of inhabitants of a country or the length of a river) instead of multimedia. The first part of this project (centralizing language links) is being rolled out now. The more fancy things will follow later.
What is going to happen?
Language links in the sidebar are going to come from Wikidata in addition to the ones in the wiki text. To edit them, scroll to the bottom of the language links, and click edit. You no longer need to maintain these links by hand in the wiki text of the article.
Where can I find more information and ask questions?

Wikidata phase 1 (language links) live on this Wikipedia
Sorry for writing in English. I hope someone can translate this locally. If you understand German better than English you can have a look at the announcement on de:Wikipedia:Kurier.
As I annonced 2 weeks ago, Wikidata phase 1 (language links) has been deployed here today. Language links in the sidebar are coming from Wikidata in addition to the ones in the wiki text. To edit them, scroll to the bottom of the language links, and click edit. You no longer need to maintain these links by hand in the wiki text of the article.

Hello! As part of the update of Wikipedias logos to the new (2010) 3D puzzle globe version, we have noticed that your wiki's current logo is missing, outdated or with wrong translation. We are trying to help Wikipedias get a locally-adapted correct logo, by taking the technical difficulties on us, and in about a week from now we'll be replacing the current logo with the new one shown in this gallery, with explanation.
If the translation is wrong, or there's another error in the new logo, or the community disagrees with the update, please update the list of logos or tell us on its talk.
Feel free to translate this message and to move/copy/forward it where appropriate. Thanks, Nemo 13:43, 11 de mâr 2013 (UTC)
Convert complex templates to Lua to make them faster and more powerful
(Please consider translating this message for the benefit of your fellow Wikimedians)
Greetings. As you might have seen on the Wikimedia tech blog or the tech ambassadors list, a new functionality called "Lua" is being enabled on all Wikimedia sites today. Lua is a scripting language that enables you to write faster and more powerful MediaWiki templates.
If you have questions about how to convert existing templates to Lua (or how to create new ones), we'll be holding two support sessions on IRC next week: one on Wednesday (for Oceania, Asia & America) and one on Friday (for Europe, Africa & America); see m:IRC office hours for the details. If you can't make it, you can also get help at mw:Talk:Lua scripting.
If you'd like to learn about this kind of events earlier in advance, consider becoming a Tech ambassador by subscribing to the mailing list. You will also be able to help your fellow Wikimedians have a voice in technical discussions and be notified of important decisions.
Wikidata phase 2 (infoboxes) coming to this Wikipedia
Sorry for writing in English. I hope someone can translate this. If you understand German better than English you can have a look at the announcement on de:Wikipedia:Kurier.
A while ago the first phase of Wikidata was enabled on this Wikipedia. This means you are getting the language links in each article from Wikidata. It is soon time to enable the second phase of Wikidata (infoboxes) here. We have already done this on the [first 11 Wikipedias] (it, he, hu, ru, tr, uk, uz, hr, bs, sr, sh) and things are looking good. The next step is English Wikipedia. This is planned for April 8. If everything works out fine we will deploy on all remaining Wikipedias on April 10. I will update this part of the FAQ if there are any issues forcing us to change this date. I will also sent another note to this village pump once the deployment is finished.
What will happen once we have phase 2 enabled here?
Once it is enabled in a few days you will be able to make use of the structured data that is available on Wikidata in your articles/infoboxes. It includes things like the symbol for a chemical element, the ISBN for a book or the top level domain of a country. (None of this will happen automatically. Someone will have to change the article or infobox template for this to happen!)
How will this work?
There are two ways to access the data:
Use a parser function like {{#property:p169}} in the wiki text of the article on Yahoo!. This will return “Marissa Mayer” as she is the chief executive officer of the company.
For more complicated things you can use Lua. The documentation for this is here.
We are working on expanding the parser function so you can for example use {{#property:chief executive officer}} instead of {{#property:p169}}. The complete plan for this is here.
Where can I test this?
You can already test it on test2.

Un nouvel appel à commentaires a été lancé sur Meta relatif à la destitution des administrateurs inactifs. Généralement, cette proposition des stewards n'affectera pas les projets qui ont déjà des procédures de destitution des administrateurs.
Nous compilons aussi une liste des projets ayant déjà de telles procédures de destitution sur la page de discussion de l'appel à commentaires. N'hésitez pas à y ajouter votre projet si celui-ci contient une règle sur l'inactivité des administrateurs.
Tout avis est apprécié. La discussion devrait normalement se terminer le 21 mai 2013, prolongeable si nécessaire.

We have now enabled the second phase of Wikidata (infoboxes) here. We have already done this on the [first 11 Wikipedias] (it, he, hu, ru, tr, uk, uz, hr, bs, sr, sh) a month ago and two days ago on the English Wikipedia. Today all the remaining Wikipedias followed.
What does having phase 2 enabled here mean?
You are now able to make use of the structured data that is available on Wikidata in your articles/infoboxes. It includes things like the symbol for a chemical element, the ISBN for a book or the top level domain of a country. (None of this will happen automatically. Someone will have to change the article or infobox template for this to happen!) The current state is just the beginning though. It will be extended based on feedback we get from you now.
How will this work?
There are two ways to access the data:
Use a parser function like {{#property:p159}} in the wiki text of the article on Wikimedia Foundation. This will return “San Francisco” as that is the headquarter location of the non-profit.
For more complicated things you can use Lua. The documentation for this is here.
We are working on expanding the parser function so you can for example use {{#property:headquarter location}} instead of {{#property:p159}}. The complete plan for this is here.
Where can I test this?
You can test it on test2 if you don't want to do it in an article here.

We are excited about taking yet another step towards allowing all Wikipedias share structured data and collect and curate it together.

The default position of the "edit" link in page section headers is going to change soon. The "edit" link will be positioned adjacent to the page header text rather than floating opposite it.
Section edit links will be to the immediate right of section titles, instead of on the far right. If you're an editor of one of the wikis which already implemented this change, nothing will substantially change for you; however, scripts and gadgets depending on the previous implementation of section edit links will have to be adjusted to continue working; however, nothing else should break even if they are not updated in time.
Ideas to do this all the way to 2009 at least. It is often difficult to track which of several potential section edit links on the far right is associated with the correct section, and many readers and anonymous or new editors may even be failing to notice section edit links at all, since they read section titles, which are far away from the links.

Recent software changes
(Not all changes will affect you.)
The latest version of MediaWiki (version 1.22/wmf4) was added to non-Wikipedia wikis on May 13, and to the English Wikipedia (with a Wikidata software update) on May 20. It will be updated on all other Wikipedia sites on May 22. [3][4]
A software update will perhaps result in temporary issues with images. Please report any problems you notice. [5]
MediaWiki recognizes links in twelve new schemes. Users can now link to SSH, XMPP and Bitcoin directly from wikicode. [6]
The UploadWizard on Commons now shows links to the old upload form in 55 languages (bug 33513). [12]
Future software changes
The next version of MediaWiki (version 1.22/wmf5) will be added to Wikimedia sites starting on May 27. [13]
An updated version of Notifications, with new features and fewer bugs, will be added to the English Wikipedia on May 23. [14]
The final version of the "single user login" (which allows people to use the same username on different Wikimedia wikis) is moved to August 2013. The software will automatically rename some usernames. [15]
A new discussion system for MediaWiki, called "Flow", is under development. Wikimedia designers need your help to inform other users, test the prototype and discuss the interface. [16].
The Wikimedia Foundation is hiring people to act as links between software developers and users for VisualEditor. [17]

Trademark discussion
Hi, apologies for posting this in English, but I wanted to alert your community to a discussion on Meta about potential changes to the Wikimedia Trademark Policy. Please translate this statement if you can. We hope that you will all participate in the discussion; we also welcome translations of the legal team’s statement into as many languages as possible and encourage you to voice your thoughts there. Please see the Trademark practices discussion (on Meta-Wiki) for more information. Thank you! --Mdennis (WMF) (talk)

Cochrane has generously agreed to give free, full-access accounts to medical editors. Individual access would otherwise cost between $300 and $800 per account.
If you are active as a medical editor, come and sign up :)
Universal Language Selector will be enabled on 2013-07-09
On July 9, 2013, Universal Language Selector (ULS) will be enabled on this wiki. The ULS provides a flexible way to configure and deliver language settings like interface language, fonts, and input methods (keyboard mappings). Making it available here is the last phase of making ULS available on all Wikimedia wikis.
Hello, Sorry for English but It's very important for bot operators so I hope someone translates this.
Pywikipedia is migrating to Git so after July 26, SVN checkouts won't be updated If you're using Pywikipedia you have to switch to git, otherwise you will use out-dated framework and your bot might not work properly. There is a manual for doing that and a blog post explaining about this change in non-technical language. If you have question feel free to ask in mw:Manual talk:Pywikipediabot/Gerrit, mailing list, or in the IRC channel. Best Amir (via Global message delivery). 13:37, 23 de juilet 2013 (UTC)
VisualEditor and your Wikipedia
(Please translate this message)
Greetings,
The Wikimedia Foundation will soon turn on VisualEditor for all users, all the time on your Wikipedia. Right now your Wikipedia does not have any local documents on VisualEditor, and we hope that your community can change that. To find out about how you can help with translations visit the TranslationCentral for VisualEditor and read the easy instructions on bringing information to your Wikipedia. The User Guide and the FAQ are very important to have in your language.
We want to find out as much as we can from you about VisualEditor and how it helps your Wikipedia, and having local pages is a great way to start. We also encourage you to leave feedback on Mediawiki where the community can offer ideas, opinions, and point out bugs that may still exist in the software that need to be reported to Bugzilla.
If you are able to speak for the concerns of others in English on MediaWiki or locally I encourage you to help your community to be represented in this process.
If you can help translate the user interface for VisualEditor to your language, you can help with that as well. Translatewiki has open tasks for translating VisualEditor. A direct link to translate the user interface is here. You can see how we are doing with those translations here. You need an account on Translatewiki to translate. This account is free and easy to create.
If we can help your community in any way with this process, please let me know and I will do my best to assist your Wikipedia with this |exciting development. You can contact me on my meta talk page or by email. You can also contact Patrick Earley for help with translations and documents on Mediawiki. We look forward to working with you to bring the VisualEditor experience to your Wikipedia! Keegan (WMF) (talk) 19:10, 30 de juilet 2013 (UTC)
Greetings. Starting on August 21 (tomorrow), all users with an account will be using HTTPS to access Wikimedia sites. HTTPS brings better security and improves your privacy. More information is available at m:HTTPS.
If HTTPS causes problems for you, tell us on bugzilla, on IRC (in the #wikimedia-operations channel) or on meta. If you can't use the other methods, you can also send an e-mail to https@wikimedia.org.
First, I’d like to apologize for the English. If you can, please help to translate this for other members of your community.
The legal team at the Wikimedia Foundation would greatly appreciate your input on the best way to manage the "community logo" (pictured here) to best balance protection of the projects with community support. Accordingly, they have created a “request for consultation” on Meta where they set out briefly some of the issues to be considered and the options that they perceive. Your input would be invaluable in helping guide them in how best to serve our mission.
Notifications inform you of new activity that affects you -- and let you take quick action.
(This message is in English, please translate as needed)
Greetings!
Notifications will inform users about new activity that affects them on this wiki in a unified way: for example, this new tool will let you know when you have new talk page messages, edit reverts, mentions or links -- and is designed to augment (rather than replace) the watchlist. The Wikimedia Foundation's editor engagement team developed this tool (code-named 'Echo') earlier this year, to help users contribute more productively to MediaWiki projects.
We're now getting ready to bring Notifications to almost all other Wikimedia sites, and are aiming for a 22 October deployment, as outlined in this release plan. It is important that notifications is translated for all of the languages we serve.
There are three major points of translation needed to be either done or checked:
Notifications help on mediawiki.org. This page can be hosted after translation on mediawiki.org or we can localize it to this Wikipedia. You do not have to have an account to translate on mediawiki, but single-user login will create it for you there if you follow the link.
Please let us know if you have any questions, suggestions or comments about this new tool. For more information, visit this project hub and this help page. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 19:03, 4 d'octobe 2013 (UTC)
This community consultation was commenced on September 24. The following day, two individuals filed a legal opposition against the registration of the Community logo.
The question is whether the Wikimedia Foundation should seek a collective membership mark with respect to this logo or abandon its registration and protection of the trademark.
We want to make sure that everyone get a chance to speak up so that we can get clear direction from the community. We would therefore really appreciate the community's help in translating this announcement from English so that everyone is able to understand it.
(Apologies for writing in English. Please translate if necessary)
We would like to let you know about Beta Features, a new program from the Wikimedia Foundation that lets you try out new features before they are released for everyone.
Think of it as a digital laboratory where community members can preview upcoming software and give feedback to help improve them. This special preference page lets designers and engineers experiment with new features on a broad scale, but in a way that's not disruptive.
Beta Features is now ready for testing on MediaWiki.org. It will also be released on Wikimedia Commons and MetaWiki this Thursday, 7 November. Based on test results, the plan is to release it on all wikis worldwide on 21 November, 2013.
Here are the first features you can test this week:
Media Viewer — view images in large size or full screen
Would you like to try out Beta Features now? After you log in on MediaWiki.org, a small 'Beta' link will appear next to your 'Preferences'. Click on it to see features you can test, check the ones you want, then click 'Save'. Learn more on the Beta Features page.
Beta Features was developed by the Wikimedia Foundation's Design, Multimedia and VisualEditor teams. Along with other developers, they will be adding new features to this experimental program every few weeks. They are very grateful to all the community members who helped create this project — and look forward to many more productive collaborations in the future.
Enjoy, and don't forget to let developers know what you think! Keegan (WMF) (talk) 20:26, 5 de novembe 2013 (UTC)
The Wikimedia legal team invites you to participate in the development of the new Wikimedia trademark policy.
The current trademark policy was introduced in 2009 to protect the Wikimedia marks. We are now updating this policy to better balance permissive use of the marks with the legal requirements for preserving them for the community. The new draft trademark policy is ready for your review here, and we encourage you to discuss it here.
We would appreciate if someone would translate this message into your language so more members of your community can contribute to the conversation.
Hello. Please excuse the English. I would be grateful if you can translate this message!
VisualEditor is coming to this project on December 2, 2013. VisualEditor is software in development to allow people to edit pages in MediaWiki without needing to learn wikitext syntax (like typing [[ to start a link). It is already available and in use on some Wikipedia projects. Please see mw:Help:VisualEditor/FAQ for more information.
When this software arrives, you will have the option to use it or to use the current wikitext editor. When you press “edit”, you will get the new VisualEditor software. To use the wikitext editor, you can press “edit source”. For more information about how to use VisualEditor, see mw:Help:VisualEditor/User guide.
We hope that this software will be useful to people in your community, and we can really use your help to make it better! Please let us know if you find any problems. If you're willing and able, please report the issue in bugzilla in the "VisualEditor" product. If you would prefer not, please explain the issue you found on the central feedback page on mediawiki.org. Once VisualEditor is made available, if there are any urgent problems, like an unexpected bug suddenly causing widespread severe problems, please e-mail James Forrester, the Product Manager, at jforrester@wikimedia.org for immediate attention.
We would also appreciate help with translation with the pages about VisualEditor here and on MediaWiki.org, and its user interface. To translate the user interface, start by creating an account at TranslateWiki. Once your account request is approved, all you need to do is select your language from this list. This will give you a list of individual lines and paragraphs. The English original will be on one side, with the option to “edit” on the other. Pressing “edit” will open an edit window where you can work.
The User Guide is another important document. To translate this, simply go to the MediaWiki.org page, and select “translate this page”. Your language should be available from the drop-down menu on the right. If you want to help with translations and would like to talk about how, please leave a message for me on my talk page.
Thank you, and happy editing! --PEarley (WMF) (talk) 19:42, 19 de novembe 2013 (UTC)
Call for project ideas: funding is available for community experiments
I apologize if this message is not in your language. Please help translate it.
Do you have an idea for a project that could improve your community? Individual Engagement Grants from the Wikimedia Foundation help support individuals and small teams to organize experiments for 6 months. You can get funding to try out your idea for online community organizing, outreach, tool-building, or research to help make Wikipedia better. In March, we’re looking for new project proposals.
