預製件

請問有冇得設置一d預製格式，喺開新版嘅版面度？即係開新版嘅時候，個輸入框呢處係自動有咗格式，而唔係空白一片。我見第啲wiktionary，譬如德文版英文版，喺工具欄附帶一d一click即有嘅架生。如果有得整定d預製件個話，可以慳返各位編輯少少時間掛。--Roy17 (talk) 10:52, 18 August 2018 (UTC)

版名

呢度會唔會跟返其它維基嘅做法？英維係叫做 "Beer parlour" ，建議呢版講政策嘅可以改名做『啤酒廳』。 Shinjiman (傾偈) 2018年11月19號 (一) 11:01 (UTC)

冇意見。不如整d特色嘢，叫「茶樓」？:D--Roy17 (傾偈) 2018年11月19號 (一) 16:19 (UTC)

嗰邊其實分咗做Information desk（求助）、Tea room（辭條）、Etymology scriptorium（語源）、Beer parlour（政策）、同Grease pit（技術），但呢度照計唔使分散到噉--Hello903hello (傾偈) 2018年11月20號 (二) 06:59 (UTC)

我覺得「茶樓」呢個建議幾好。Jonashtand (傾偈) 2019年11月9號 (六) 15:03 (UTC)

政策：關於辭條參考嘅格式

而家辭條參考一啲擺喺語言小節道，第啲另開新小節。後者會搞到唔知便條參考係for邊個語文（噉係因為維基辭典唔用<ref/>標籤）。最好就係訂立統一做法，唔係嘅話會亂七八糟。--Hello903hello (傾偈) 2018年12月7號 (五) 13:58 (UTC)

英文維基辭典我唔清楚，但法文維基辭典就係每個語言小節後面分別加參考嘅。例1 例2 實際操作可以用<ref group="乜乜乜">同埋<references group="乜乜乜"/>。補充澄清：我贊成嘅做法係每個語言小節後面分別加參考。【粵語文學大使殘陽孤侠】粵維辭典起錨！ 2018年12月21號 (五) 19:44 (UTC)

提議將en:Module:yue-pron搬過來

粵文有好多種拼音，有國際音標表記更有利於學習。提議將en:Module:yue-pron搬過來，模仿en:Template:zh-pron寫一個Template:yue-pron。也建議將en:Module:wuu-pron、en:Module:nan-pron等都搬過來，分別建立模板。--唐吉訶德的侍從 (傾偈) 2019年8月12號 (一) 15:53 (UTC)

模組編輯有移位

唔知有冇人亦都遇到咁嘅問題，就係響編輯緊模組陣時，明明光標係停喺一個地方，打出嚟嘅時候又會行到其他地方，或者揀中一笪地方要刪除，結果又刪咗其他地方。唔知咁樣要點解決。--Sayonzei (傾偈) 2019年12月23號 (一) 11:24 (UTC)

機械人政策/Bot Policy

我寫起咗Wiktionary:機械人，建議通過做政策，容許機械人喺道運作。Ping最近有編輯嘅@Marcus Mac 2002, Z423x5c6, Sun8908, and Westmother:。H78c67c (傾偈) 2021年2月1號 (一) 20:04 (UTC)

對呢個wiki有幫助嘅政策應該點都好嘅。對於個政策，我覺得起碼要寫埋運作者需要有嘅操守。即係好似英文嗰邊噉，而家「唔接受嘅用途」感覺唔係好帶出到機械人一定要係有用同埋唔會破壞wiki嘅重點。--Sun8908 (傾偈) 2021年2月2號 (二) 09:19 (UTC)

關於「一定要係有用」，其實如果個機械人係無用嘅話可以請求道作出反對嘅...不過寫落去都都得。H78c67c (傾偈) 2021年2月3號 (三) 01:29 (UTC)

新法蘭西拼音方案唔妥，系統式撈亂咗穗港發音。

陰平聲（第一聲）個聲調，家陣香港音調值一律係「55」，廣州音多數係「51」。然而，喺呢度，個新法蘭西系統會寫話係「廣州音」，而實際標「香港音」。建議參考官話維基辭典，模仿普通話同國語嗰種分列格式嚟處理。正如大家都知道，香港嘅電視台同廣州嗰啲兩者之間，後生嘅新聞報道員，發音分別好明顯；勁老嘅就聽落差唔多。隨着歲月流逝，穗港粵語都變咗，不過廣州嘅改得少啲。不如寫啲指令入個程式道，一刀切釐清呢個聲嘅簡單分野。若果仔細睇，重可以發現啲極之複雜嘅半隨機變調，唔理為妙。（https://www.cuhk.edu.hk/ics/journal/articles/v02p081.pdf）110.174.132.162 2021年6月2號 (三) 10:03 (UTC)

起嘢同防拆設施比例反常……

請管理員同事務員營運時用下常識。呢度長期都拍烏蠅，重猛咁起啲防禦設備嚟做乜呢？倒不如花啲時間，由隔籬搬多幾件建築工具過嚟啦。啱啱發覺，跳轉模亦已經被禁用，起碼係對於無名氏而言。--110.174.132.162 2021年12月4號 (六) 08:13 (UTC)

提議：將{{Yue-rom}}個模分清楚係邊個片嘅粵語區音

最近發現粵語區唔止得一個城市有當地嘅特色發音。點解{{Yue-rom}}呢個模淨得個“廣州音”而冇定義到其它地區（例如廣東嘅粵西一帶或廣西白話、平話片）嘅城市定義發音？建議城市名有得修改成其它片。--PQ77wd (傾偈) 2022年2月19號 (六) 09:36 (UTC)

唔得，而家city_name定義咗做array，唔可以直接display。但我依然睇唔透大家想改成點（全部並列顯示？咩情況先顯示唔同嘅地區？）。容許我打咗回頭先，費事影響辭條顯示。--Sun8908 (傾偈) 2022年5月27號 (五) 16:04 (UTC)

@PQ77wd、@Sun8908：我提議直接棄用 Yue-rom 。zh-pron 有齊各種通用拼音方案，亦都可以容易加各地讀音。H78c67c (傾偈) 2022年6月4號 (六) 05:43 (UTC)

Your wiki will be in read only soon

用其他語言嚟閱讀呢個信息 • 請幫手去譯做你嘅語言

維基百科基金會將會測試第一同埋第二個數據中心嘅轉換。 咁樣就會確保維基百科同其他維基媒體維基項目，即使喺發生意外之後，仍然可以保持在線。 為咗確保一切正常運作，維基媒體技術部門計劃進行測試，保證系統能夠可靠噉喺兩個數據中心之間切換。測試需要好多個團隊做好準備，隨時可以修復任何突發嘅問題。

1 三月 所有流量會切換到新數據中心， 測試會喺 14:00 UTC開始。

因為MediaWiki有某啲限制，切換期間都一定要停止所有嘅編輯。 我哋諒解今次測試帶來嘅不便，我哋喺度響未來度努力減少同樣嘅情況。

喺一段好短嘅時間，你可以閱讀，但係響短時間之內唔可以編輯所有啲維基。

• 10月27號當日嘅其中一個鐘之內唔可以編輯所有啲維基。
• 嗰陣時如果你嘗試編輯文章或者保存更改，你就會睇到一個錯誤信息。 我哋希望過程中唔會有編輯丟失，但係我哋保證唔到呢點。 如果你見到錯誤訊息，噉就請等到一切恢復正常， 然後你就應該可以保存你嘅編輯。 之但係，我哋建議你複製你嘅改動，以防萬一。

其它影響：

• 後台背景作業會變慢，有啲可能會被丟棄。 紅色連結可能更新得無平時咁快。 如果您開咗一版已經喺第度有連結嘅文章，個連結變色要耐過平時。 有啲長時間運行嘅腳本將不得不停止。
• 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.
• GitLab will be unavailable for about 90 minutes.

如有必要，呢個計劃可能會被延遲。 你可以喺wikitech.wikimedia.org讀個時間表。 任何嘅改變都會喺嗰份計劃書上面寫低。 未來會有更多呢方面嘅消息。 喺每一個維基都會喺呢個計劃之前30分鐘顯示一個通告。 請同你嘅社區分享呢個信息。

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.

Review the Charter for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee

多啲話 • 請幫手去譯做你嘅語言

Hello all,

I am pleased to share the next step in the Universal Code of Conduct work. The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) draft charter is now ready for your review.

The Enforcement Guidelines require a Building Committee form to draft a charter that outlines procedures and details for a global committee to be called the 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 conversation hours or on Meta-wiki.

Best,

RamzyM (WMF), on behalf of the U4C Building Committee, 2023年8月28號 (一) 15:36 (UTC)

刪走新法蘭西粵拼

宜家有五百幾條辭條（[1]）用到模:新法蘭西標示新法蘭西粵語拼音方案，但係新法蘭西基本上無人用，喺維基之外幾乎無關注度。2019年喺維基百科有相關嘅討論（[2]），嗰時嘅結論係只保留百科篇文，盡量避免用呢個方案做主要標音。我認為2019年嘅論據都適用於維基辭典，因此提議刪走模:新法蘭西同辭條上嘅新法蘭西標示。 香蕉紳士 (傾偈) 2023年10月20號 (五) 10:20 (UTC)

支持。改哂嗰五百幾版，確保無版用個模之後，就可以剷走個模。 ——Z423X5C6（傾偈） 2023年10月20號 (五) 13:05 (UTC)

其實係成個粵維嘅問題，有必要齊心合力剷走晒過去積落嚟嘅「粵維毒瘤」

啱先尋日同今日，大家好多人喺TG群度，都異口同聲認為本來好地地嘅「史杜列治」（「丹尼爾·史杜列治」）畀人改咗做「屎塔」——「史塔列治」好離譜，管理員亦啱啱幫手搬咗版。不過呢個唔係個別問題，唔係單一事件。睇番改名嗰位人兄「WKDx417」，佢喺丹尼爾·史杜列治嘅編輯歷史度留言話「Sturridge嘅u字發/ʌ/音，唔係發/u/音」，呢一點經過大家查證，已經完全證實佢嘅講法係錯嘅。同時，佢又喺史杜列治嘅編輯歷史度留言話「其實正音係史塔列治，廣州當地媒體係噉嗌，而且同原音唔係相差好遠」，呢一點正正就係反映一啲舊粵維廣州編輯嘅唔正常心態而引致嘅一股歪風——就係睇香港傳媒唔順超，覺得香港人不學無術，亂咬啲香港譯名係「病毒音」、「歪音」，將啲正正常常又普及嘅粵語譯名改到不倫不類，突顯自己先識嘢噉款。相反，有啲跟咗普通話嘅名，明明有其他啱粵語名嘅選擇，但係反而嗰啲就唔理。

呢種唔正常心態，已曾經長期盤據粵維同粵維詞典、當粵維同粵維詞典係佢自己私竇嘅「殘陽孤侠」最最嚴重，甚至可以話係喺粵維上以「病毒音」、「歪音」呢啲冤罪嚟屈香港譯名嘅第一號人物。例如「舒拉寶娃」明明完全啱粵音、粵譯原理，但係「殘陽孤侠」就老屈佢話「病毒音譯名嘅概率高達百分之85」，話要用同普通話譯名一樣嘅「莎拉波娃」先至唔係咩「病毒音」喎——雖然「莎拉波娃」未致於好違反粵音，但係粵語傳媒同埋粵語人講嘢，用「舒拉寶娃」絕對係大多數。而「殘陽孤侠」係都唔理其他人點反對，夾硬將篇文搬版去「莎拉波娃」，後來到2021年喺其他編輯努力下先回復正常。又例如喺Talk:頭版度，有編輯見到時人時事用同大陸譯法一致嘅「沙特阿拉伯」，而唔係以前多數粵語傳媒本來叫開嘅「沙地阿拉伯」，慨嘆連粵維都唔用粵名，「殘陽孤侠」就已經咬人話：「大佬，唔好下下都以為得香港譯名先至係粵名」，已經反映出佢仇視港譯嘅不良態度。

而泡製出「屎塔」譯名嘅「WKDx417」唔單止發言支持「殘陽孤侠」呢老屈，仲係2015年將「舒拉寶娃」搬版去「莎拉波娃」嘅實際執行者。「WKDx417」嘅發言仲要語氣好惡咁話『我呢次提出搬係解決上面嘅尊港抑粵問題。要將Sharapova改譯做莎拉波娃係因為「舒拉寶娃」個「舒」同「寶」字同原音唔似，加上「莎拉波娃」四個字嘅讀音同廣州音唔係差好遠。假設WIKICANTONA話舒拉寶娃太出名嘅話，噉我哋廣州電視台叫嘅「莎拉波娃」唔出名啊（大佬，電視台講嘅都係粵語，都係講「莎拉波娃」個名）？吓？真係離嗮祖宗120代譜，廣州都係講粵語㗎。好唔好？』充份見證佢哋嘅無理取鬧，同時又充份引證我指出嘅關鍵：粵維上唔少譯名問題，在於有個別嘅人自己心態唔正常，睇香港傳媒唔順超，覺得香港人不學無術，亂咬啲香港譯名係「病毒音」、「歪音」，將啲正正常常又普及嘅粵語譯名改到不倫不類，突顯自己先識嘢噉款，絕對係歪風。

好希望粵維可以眾志成城，認真審視番以前一啲受到歪風影響而出現嘅問題。除咗譯名上故意歪批港譯，睇香港傳媒唔順超，亂咬啲香港譯名係「病毒音」、「歪音」，將啲正正常常又普及嘅粵語譯名改到不倫不類，但係跟咗普通話譯法嗰啲嚴重問題反而就唔理之外，「殘陽孤侠」等曾經長期盤據粵維（包括粵維百科同粵維詞典）嘅一班人仲帶出以下非常嚴重嘅重大問題：

1.老屈人哋寫嘅粵文唔係粵文，話係「國維行話」——有啲畀佢哋聲稱係「國維行話」（淨係呢四個字都睇死人，總之係咬人寫咗「國語」而唔係粵文啦），其實粵語都會好自然咁講，例如話「個註腳、張列表、條條目」等等。你可以話：「同一個粵維上呢文嘅格式希望一致啲，所以我哋com好咗一個統一共識，請大家跟呢個。」噉講OK。但係佢哋搞出嚟嘅「傑作」係：逢親有人一寫親後者，就彈系統通知老屈佢唔係寫粵文，甚至唔畀佢submit，呢樣超超超超超級乞人憎。

2.有正常粵文唔寫，信晒「曾焯文」之流嘅神棍呃，寫埋晒啲穿鑿附會嘅所謂「古字」、「本字」，但其實係錯別字火星文。例如將「嘅」改做咩「其、丌、忌」嗰啲，唔係叫「Choice of Chinese characters」，而係叫「亂寫錯別字、火星文之餘，仲要大大聲去話啲錯別字火星文先係『啱』，係你啲凡夫俗子唔識嘢」，完全係反智無極限。

3.第三，啲自創小眾拼音文字，其實唔適合做百科。到咗今時今日，粵維詞典都仲有大大大大大堆「新法躝西」喺度，冇人剷走。

每次見到呢三坺嘢，就算本來大好心情都即刻超低落。畀呢啲情況擴散，只會干擾正常粵文嘅語庫數據，誤導人哋以爲正常粵文應該噉寫，遺禍無窮。堪稱係過去積落嚟嘅「粵維毒瘤」。

如果話曾經衰過，但係而家粵維嘅人都萬眾同心，整理番好佢，改走番啲漏網之魚，大家互相支持嘅，噉本來都好。但實際上唔係，過去積落嚟嘅大大大大大堆毒瘤冇邊個編輯會去割番走。而且，繼續搞呢三類破壞嘅人仲持續出沒，特別係第二種。佢哋出沒，絕大部份編輯都唔理，然後佢哋得寸進尺，有好少數人睇唔過眼想整理番好嘅，佢哋就郁啲整理番好佢嘅人，然後其他編輯都唔會幫番道理、幫番想整理番好佢嘅人，繼續縱容啲破壞者。噉嘅粵維，keep住落去，只會成爲粵文嘅反面敎材，仲要吹捧佢、等啲人學粵文嗰陣走去學咗粵維啲毒瘤嘅話，就眞係誤人子弟、搞軭粵文、遺害萬年。

抱歉講咗啲掃興嘢，但係眞心非常非常非常非常非常希望粵維可以改晒呢三點，等佢成爲粵文嘅助力，而唔係阻力。如果有心做實事，眼前啲毒瘤多到咁嘅樣，係咪應該發起大型運動，等大家一齊眾志成城改正番晒、剷走晒佢？首先全體管理員身體力行，每人每日鏟五個或十個毒瘤（包括刪走啲「新法躝西」，將啲僞本字火星文改番做正常嘅粵文等等），並呼籲每個粵維人（甚至非粵維人）一齊參與。如果幾年前決定已經開始噉樣做，相信到而家已經有一定成果。好喇，之前冇做到，其實可唔可以由而家呢一刻就發起，係噉幾年後，都應該有一定嘅成果。111.255.209.226 2023年10月23號 (一) 10:42 (UTC)

The Vector 2022 skin as the default in three weeks?

Read this in your language • 請幫手去譯做你嘅語言 • Please tell other users about these changes

Hello. I'm writing on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Web team. In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.

全域喜好設定

If you prefer keeping the current skin select "Vector legacy (2010)" on 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 "Our plan":

It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy as a local (but not global) preference. Logged-in users can at any time switch to any other skin. No changes are expected for these skins.

• Top of an article
• 
  Vector legacy (current default)
• 
  Vector 2022

• A section of an article
• 
  Vector legacy (current default)
• 
  Vector 2022

About the skin

Slides to our Wikimania 2022 presentation. 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. 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 Community Wishlist Surveys, and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. 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.

[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 the repository for a list of currently available customizations and changes, or add your own.

Our plan

If no large concerns are raised, we plan on deploying on 14 November. 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 our FAQ. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (傾偈) 2023年10月26號 (四) 01:09 (UTC)

@SGrabarczuk (WMF): This is a general concern (i.e., not yue-specific) but devs should test this skin on portrait monitors (eg 1080p, but rotated, i.e. 1080x1920 as opposed to 1920x1080), which are relatively common in editorial circles (i.e., people who actually do editing), to see how bad this skin has become. The skin was not too bad when it was first released, but it was modified afterwards to have side bars on both the left and right sides, making the skin unusable on portrait monitors.

How bad is it? A while ago, on yuewiki I actually switched to Timeless because Vector was already bad; Vector 2022 was worse. If you want to see how bad the home page (on yuewiki) looks I can upload a screenshot.

I find the lack of proper usability testing a serious concern. Wikimedia devs seem to have a very fixed idea of what’s normal in the wild and aren’t open to the idea that certain seemingly out-of-date use cases might actually be important. This is “design fixation” and isn’t good for accessibility. Al12si (傾偈) 2023年10月26號 (四) 01:41 (UTC)

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees 2024 Selection

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

多啲話 • 請幫手去譯做你嘅語言

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 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

Learn more about the 2024 selection process - including the detailed timeline, the candidacy process, the campaign rules, and the voter eligibility criteria - on this Meta-wiki page, and make your plan.

Election Volunteers

Another way to be involved with the 2024 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.

Best regards,

Dariusz Jemielniak (Governance Committee Chair, Board Selection Working Group)

[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.

Hello everyone,

After carefully tallying both individual and affiliate votes, the Charter Electoral Commission is pleased to announce the final results of the Wikimedia Movement Charter voting.  

As 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 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, 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.

Coming soon: A new sub-referencing feature – try it!

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 the project page.

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

• Please try the current state of development on beta wiki and let us know what you think.
• Sign up here to get updates and/or invites to participate in user research activities.

Wikimedia Deutschland’s 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. --Johannes Richter (WMDE) (talk) 10:36, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

Sign up for the language community meeting on August 30th, 15:00 UTC

Hi all,

The next language community meeting is scheduled in a few weeks—on August 30th at 15:00 UTC. If you're interested in joining, you can sign up on this wiki page.

This participant-driven meeting will focus on sharing language-specific updates related to various projects, discussing technical issues related to language wikis, and working together to find possible solutions. For example, in the last meeting, topics included the Language Converter, the state of language research, updates on the Incubator conversations, and technical challenges around external links not working with special characters on Bengali sites.

Do you have any ideas for topics to share technical updates or discuss challenges? Please add agenda items to the document here and reach out to ssethi(__AT__)wikimedia.org. We look forward to your participation!

Preliminary results of the 2024 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees elections

Hello all,

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 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:

1. Christel Steigenberger
2. Maciej Artur Nadzikiewicz
3. Victoria Doronina
4. 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.

Learn more about the results on Meta-Wiki.

Best regards,

The Elections Committee and Board Selection Working Group

'Wikidata item' link is moving, finally.

Hello everyone, I previously wrote on the 27th September to advise that the Wikidata item sitelink will change places in the sidebar menu, moving from the General section into the In Other Projects section. The scheduled rollout date of 04.10.2024 was delayed due to a necessary request for Mobile/MinervaNeue skin. I am happy to inform that the global rollout can now proceed and will occur later today, 22.10.2024 at 15:00 UTC-2. Please let us know if you notice any problems or bugs after this change. There should be no need for null-edits or purging cache for the changes to occur. Kind regards, -Danny Benjafield (WMDE) 2024年10月22號 (二) 11:30 (UTC)

meta:Global reminder bot

Bot authorisation request for User:Leaderbot. This is for meta:Global reminder bot - the bot will rarely run here, but this process is required especially since meta:Global bots is disabled on this wiki and this wiki requires explicit authorisation (though I'll turn it on given that this wiki allows running test edits while waiting for a response). Please ping me in a response. The bot flag is NOT required. Leaderboard (傾偈) 2024年11月2號 (六) 10:04 (UTC)
