Review of initial updates on Wikimedia movement strategy process

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Wikivoyage at the Wikimania 2017

Dear Wikivoyage community members. The Wikimania 2017 conference will take place in August 2017. I am going to take part and I hope to meet some other community members. To prepare for the conference properly I would like to know more about all your wishes, problems and ideas related to Wikivoyage. I have created a small site on the meta-wiki where you can drop all your thoughts, wishes and concerns. Feel free to create sub sites if needed. It would be great to have a meeting at the conference venue or anywhere in town. -- DerFussi (talk) -- MediaWiki message delivery (обговорення) 23:04, 23 квітня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]

New notification when a page is connected to Wikidata

Hello all,

(Sorry for writing in English. It’d be great if someone could translate it if necessary.)

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

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

This feature will be deployed on May 9th on all the Wikivoyages. This feature will be disable by default for existing editors, and enabled by default for new editors. This is the first step of the deployments, the Wikipedias and other Wikimedia projects will follow in the next months.

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

Thanks go to Matěj Suchánek who suggested and developed this feature! Cheers, Lea Lacroix (WMDE) (talk)

Усім привіт! А чи є бажання у членів спільноти підтримати такий конкурс? Потрібна допомога :) Як мінімум, хотілося б знайти ще члена журі. І щоб перечитали правила на баги (для прикладу правила з конкурсів Вікімедіа Україна: wmua:Військова справа у Вікіпедії/Умови конкурсу). І потрібні ідеї для призів. Детальніше тут: [15] --アンタナナ 11:55, 28 червня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]

Visem, antanana, RLuts, підтримаю з радістю, надіюсь вистачить часу і сил. Правила перечитаю. Давайте конкурс проводити в вересні, бо треба час тут пройтися з віником, повернути статус адміна і таке інше. Та й нагороджувати тоді будемо саме на п'ятиріччя Вікімандрів, яке буде 13 листопада :-). --Voll (обговорення) 21:57, 29 червня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]
Хотів звичайно на початку літа провести, але можна і в кінці серпня розпочати щоб приурочити до цієї дати і сильно не перетинатися з конкурсом Вікі любить пам'ятки. --Visem (обговорення) 23:34, 29 червня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]
А в українській Вікіпедії коли краще пишуть статті - в серпні чи в вересні? --Voll (обговорення) 12:42, 30 червня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]
Звичайно підтримаю:). Правда не знаю чи зможу бути членом журі, якщо це буде 2 половина серпня. Але хотілося б когось із старожилів туди записати. Voll? А в підготовці допомогти зможу:) --RLuts (talk) 19:22, 30 червня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]

Improved search in deleted pages archive

Будь ласка, допоможіть перекласти Вашою мовою

During Wikimedia Hackathon 2016, the Discovery team worked on one of the items on the 2015 community wishlist, namely enabling searching the archive of deleted pages. This feature is now ready for production deployment, and will be enabled on all wikis, except Wikidata.

Right now, the feature is behind a feature flag - to use it on your wiki, please go to the Special:Undelete page, and add &fuzzy=1 to the URL, like this: https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AUndelete&fuzzy=1. Then search for the pages you're interested in. There should be more results than before, due to using ElasticSearch indexing (via the CirrusSearch extension).

We plan to enable this improved search by default on all wikis soon (around August 1, 2017). If you have any objections to this - please raise them with the Discovery team via email or on this announcement's discussion page. Like most Mediawiki configuration parameters, the functionality can be configured per wiki. Once the improved search becomes the default, you can still access the old mode using &fuzzy=0 in the URL, like this: https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AUndelete&fuzzy=0

Please note that since Special:Undelete is an admin-only feature, this search capability is also only accessible to wiki admins.

Accessible editing buttons

--Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 19:57, 27 липня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]

Fixing the toolbar

It looks like some of the buttons in the (light blue) toolbar aren't displaying the correct icons. This was a problem at several Wikivoyages last year. According to this discussion, this edit: https://es.wikivoyage.org/w/index.php?diff=128406 seems to be the way to fix it. Search in your MediaWiki:Common.js for customizeToolbar (the first one) to find the correct part of the scripts. Please ping me and tell me whether you have been able to fix this, or if you need help. Whatamidoing (WMF) (обговорення) 23:14, 11 серпня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]

Whatamidoing (WMF), I have fixed it. Thank you for the message. --Voll (обговорення) 17:48, 12 серпня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]

Pagebanner

Коллеги, собирая данные по баннерам городов Украины в трех языковых разделах, обратил внимание на большое количество статей без баннера. Может быть стоит какого-нибудь бота запустить? Digr (обговорення) 21:15, 23 серпня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]

PDF

З першого жовтня не можна буде скористатися OCG, щоб створити PDF, через технічні проблеми. Натомість ви можете використовувати Electron, і більшість PDF уже створюються з його допомогою. Функції, яких поки бракує, з'являться в Electron перед 1 жовтня. Ви можете створювати книжки, але усіх запланованих функцій у них не буде до листопада чи й грудня. Більше про це читайте на mediawiki.org. /Johan (WMF) (обговорення) 03:27, 14 вересня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]

Terribly sorry for writing in English. Please feel free to translate this to your language.
Unfortunately, we’ve discovered we were wrong. In a couple of weeks – October 1 – the function to create PDFs from articles you have added to a book will stop working temporarily. We’ll work on getting it back up again. We aim to have it up within the next few months, but honestly, this has been forced upon us and it could take longer. We apologise.
Creating PDFs from single articles will work as previously stated.
You can follow the work in Phabricator: phab:T150871 and phab:T175853. /Johan (WMF) (обговорення) 00:55, 20 вересня 2017 (EEST)[відповісти]

Kartographer improvements on the Wikimedia wishlist

The kartographer is one of our most important features. RolandUnger has proposed some urgently needed improvements. If you want to support these wishes please vote on meta wiki for the Kartographer improvements. I wish you a very merry Christmas. Thank you very much.

Please help expand Вікімандри:Віхи with documentation of the site's main efforts/milestones over the years (especially if you are one of the most active editors)

We at the Hebrew Wikivoyage have recently created and expanded this page in which we have (1) documented, as best as we could, the most important milestones our community achieved over the years in the development of the site (2) added the current most important milestones we are trying to achieve in the development of the Hebrew Wikivoyage in the present.

I noticed that most of the Wikivoyage communities have not created this page and/or haven't written yet a more well documented page with the most important milestones achieved in the development of their own Wikivoyage edition over the years. Most likely, because usually only a handful of highly active editors are the ones whom usually lead the way trying to reach various BIG goals in the development of the site instead of just editing the content article by article, and in my opinion, these pages would probably be written in the best way possible if they were written by each Wikivoyage edition's most highly active editors.

Either way, if possible, please help expand this page on your Wikivoyage edition (especially if you are one of the most active editors in your Wikivoyage edition over the years) and help document, as best as we could, the most important milestones achieved in the development of your Wikivoyage edition over the years + add the current most important milestones your Wikivoyage community is trying to achieve in the present.

I am hoping that if each/most of the Wikivoyage editor communities do this we'll all have a much better understanding about where each community has chosen to focus all of their efforts throughout their site's existence (and perhaps, in this way, each Wikivoyage community might inspire the rest of the Wikivoyage editor communities to adopt new ideas for new important initiatives on our own edition of Wikivoyage which we haven't even considered so far).

Edit-a-thon "5 years Wikivoyage"

We propose an edit-a-thon dedicated to the 5th anniversary of the Wikivoyage launch at the WMF servers that took place on January 15, 2013. At Russian Wikivoyage it will be combined with the celebration of our 5000th article that we expect in early January. In a nutshell, we plan to request central banner on relevant language versions of Wikipedia, and offer small presents to everyone who makes useful edits to Wikivoyage articles during the period of January 16 - February 15, 2018.

We prepared several pages:

  • Landing page that explains the basics of adding new objects and editing the existing ones; how to use Listing Editor and what to write in the description field
  • Getting started, where we explain how to use Wikivoyage (dynamic maps, images, GPX files, offline usage) and what is special about our project; how we are different from other travel guides
  • Rules of the edit-a-thon. The participants will score 1 point for each object added to an article, provided that they add practical information and write a meaningful description based on their first-hand knowledge. Copying information from the web is strongly discouraged.
Every participant who scored more than 10 points, will receive postcards (this is equivalent to the prizes given for the Asian Month in Wikipedia). Those participants who will write at least 2 articles with the usable or guide status will receive printed travel guide for the region of their choice.

These are the rules at Russian Wikivoyage. You should feel free to modify them in your own way, but please, stick to several general guidelines:

  • Prepare the landing page that will include brief instructions on which articles to edit, how to edit them, as well as links to relevant policies and guidelines in your language
  • Provide the text of the central notice in your language
  • Name one person who will be responsible for the communication
  • If you plan to give presents, draft formal rules and find the presents. Our presents are partly funded by Wikimedia Russia and partly by ourselves. Talking to your regional chapter or even writing a rapid grant application may be a good idea. The prizes are not compulsory, but they are likely to increase the number of participants and motivate them to work harder.

Deadline: January 4, 2018. After this date I will initiate the Central Notice request on meta. Without the landing page and other relevant information, I won't be able to include your language into the request, and you won't have the central banner. Should you have question, please, ask them here or on my talk page. Happy New Year, and all the best in 2018!
