De ferzje fan 12 apr 2019 om 17.35

Namme

No't wy wier wat ynhâld hawwe, komt de fraach at wy de Ingelske namme oersette of feroarje wolle, as net. Oant no ta bin ik útgongen fan WikiBoeken, lykas WikiWurdboek en it WikiBooks op it logo. Mar ik sjoch dat oare Wikibooksen meast ien haadletter brûke by harren oersetting, dat dan soe it "Wikiboeken" wurde. It Nederlânske projekt hat de Ingelske titel hâlden, mar dat hoecht om my net sa. Aliter 22.46, 18 aug 2006 (UTC)

As wy in oersetting kinne meitsje moat it wis 'wikiboeken' wurde.

Goed, "Wikiboeken", en dan mei ien haadletter. Aliter 22.17, 1 sep 2006 (UTC)

Nammeromten

Eart wy te grut wurde moatte wy fansels de nammeromten oanpasje litte. Alle Oerlis-nammeromten hjitte troch in âlde flater fan my hjir ek wer "Romte oerlis", yn stee fan oanelkoar. Ik stel út te freegjen dêr ""Romte-oerlis" fan te meitsjen, tastien yn it Frysk, en dochs dúdlik. De "Hulp"-nammeromten moatte fansels "Help"-nammeromten wurde, en at wy de projektnamme feroarje, dan moat dat ek by de nammeromten feroarje. Oars noch? Aliter 22.46, 18 aug 2006 (UTC)

At it "Wikiboeken" wurdt, dan moat dat ek de namme fan de Wikibooks: nammeromte wurde. En "Help:", en "-oerlis:" foar de oerlisnammeromten. Oars noch? Aliter 22.17, 1 sep 2006 (UTC)

Dan wurdt it:

-2 Media
-1 Wiki
 0 (Boeken)
 1 Oerlis
 2 Meidogger
 3 Meidogger-oerlis*
 4 Wikiboeken*
 5 Wikiboeken-oerlis*
 6 Ofbyld
 7 Ofbyld-oerlis*
 8 MediaWiki
 9 MediaWiki-oerlis*
10 Berjocht
11 Berjocht-oerlis*
12 Help*
13 Help-oerlis*
14 Kategory
15 Kategory-oerlis*

Dy mei in stjerke moatte dan oanpast wurde. Aliter 22.28, 6 sep 2006 (UTC)

Titelstruktuer

Dogge wy:

  • Boek/Part
  • Boek/part
  • Part (Boek)

Aliter 18.51, 27 aug 2006 (UTC)

Behear

Wy hawwe hjir al noch wat núvere systeemteksten. Ik kin hjir ek behearderstatus oanfreegje, dat ik it wat oanpasse kin. Aliter 18.51, 27 aug 2006 (UTC)

Haadside

Ik ha de WikiBoeken hiemside feroare. 01-09-06 22:50 meidogger Kening Aldgilles

By my wurdt it oersjoch sa al wat fier yn ien hoeke skood. Kin dit noch oars? Aliter 22.00, 1 sep 2006 (UTC)
Ja wis kin it oars. In WikiBoeken hiemside dy't der net moai útsjocht. Sjoch ris nei de Ingelske en Dútske ferzje, hja hawwe in goeie opset. Wy kinne ús opset wol útwreide, mar net feroarje nei in hiemside dy't fysueel 'bagger' is.
Kening Aldgilles 23.15, 2 sep 2006 (UTC)
Dy Ingelske haadside hoech om my net: gjin goede struktuer en in bult lytse letterkes op it earste skerm. Mar wy koenen eat dwaan as by de Dútske Wikiboeken. Ik haw wat besocht op it Kladblok. It wie faaks better as de ynlieding noch wat koarter wie, mar fieders liket it om my wol aardich. (Aliter likernôch 23.00, 2 sep 2006 (UTC)).
Mar dat hienen jo al sjoen, om't dize opmerking net fêstlein wie. Aliter 17.20, 3 sep 2006 (UTC)

De WikiBoeken hiemside sjocht der no bjusterbaarlik moai út, tige tank foar jo stipe Aliter Kening Aldgilles 08.15, 3 sep 2006 (UTC)

Betawiki: better support for your language in MediaWiki

Dear community. I am writing to you to promote a special wiki called Betawiki. This wiki facilitates the localisation (l10n) of the MediaWiki interface. You may have changed many messages here to use your language in the interface, but if you would log in to for example the English language Wiktionary, you would not be able to use the interface as well translated as here. Infact, of the 1797 messages in the core of MediaWiki, 467 messages have been translated. Betawiki also supports the translation of messages of about 80 extensions, with almost 1000 messages.

If you wish to contribute to better support of your language in MediaWiki, as well as for many MediaWiki extensions, please visit Betawiki, create an account and request translator priviledges. You can see the current status of localisation of your language on meta and do not forget to get in touch with others that may already be working on your language on Betawiki.

If you have any further questions, please let me know on my talk page on Betawiki. We will try and assist you as much as possible, for example by importing all messages from a local wiki for you to start with, if you so desire.

You can also find us on the Freenode IRC network in the channel #mediawiki-i18n where we would be happy to help you get started.

Thank you very much for your attention and I do hope to see some of you on Betawiki soon! Cheers! Siebrand@Betawiki 25 sep 2007, 08.49 (UTC)

Sybrand makket reklame foar syn projekt om in wiki dy't net ferbûn is oan de ûntwikkelders fan MediaWiki te brûken foar it meitsjen fan in standardoersetting, dêr't er fan mient dat dy dan op alle WikiMedia-wikis sûnder oanpassings te brûken wêze sil. Ik stel út earst mar ris te sjen hoe't dit fierder komt. Aliter 15 aug 2008, 19.59 (UTC)[beäntwurdzje]


Hûswurk

Wy hawwe hjir gjin behearder. Ik bin behearder oan de wikiwurdboek side. Ik kin hjir ek behearderstatus oanfreegje, bywannear't net ôf te karren is.

Ik fyn't bêst. Aliter 15 aug 2008, 19.59 (UTC)[beäntwurdzje]

Bots

Ik haw de Botsoanmelding lyktrokken mei de oare Fryske projekten, al is der hjir minder ferlet fan. Dat betsjut dat bot-oanfragen ek gewoan hjir komme. Oant de buorren te drok wurde, kin op dy manier it oerlis ta ien side beheind wurde. Aliter 15 aug 2008, 19.59 (UTC)[beäntwurdzje]

Goeie, Aliter. Dit is foar in Natuergids-projekt. Ik hawwe in protte artikels út de wikipedy en wikiwurdboek eksportearre -- rûch materiaal, planten en fûgels. Dêrtroch kin ik ymportearje en gearfette, ynstee fan yndividueel kopiearjen-plakken út de side direkt of de eksporttriem yn myn pleatslike kompjûter. Snakesteuben 20 aug 2008, 05.32 (UTC)[beäntwurdzje]
Ik soe sizze dat de wiki ek in ymportearfunksje hat, mar dêr kin ik mis mei wêze. It sil my benije wat it wurdt: Fansels moat it gehiel al mear wurde as de parten; oars hie it likegoed allegear yn de wikipedy stean kinnen. Aliter 24 aug 2008, 19.47 (UTC)[beäntwurdzje]

Proposal to create PNG thumbnails of static GIF images

The thumbnail of this gif is of really bad quality.
How a PNG thumb of this GIF would look like

There is a proposal at the Commons Village Pump requesting feedback about the thumbnails of static GIF images: It states that static GIF files should have their thumbnails created in PNG. The advantages of PNG over GIF would be visible especially with GIF images using an alpha channel. (compare the thumbnails on the side)

This change would affect all wikis, so if you support/oppose or want to give general feedback/concerns, please post them to the proposal page. Thank you. --McZusatz (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (oerlis) 24 jul 2015, 05.07 (UTC)[beäntwurdzje]

Wikimania 2016 scholarships ambassadors needed

Hello! Wikimania 2016 scholarships will soon be open; by the end of the week we'll form the committee and we need your help, see Scholarship committee for details.

If you want to carefully review nearly a thousand applications in January, you might be a perfect committee member. Otherwise, you can volunteer as "ambassador": you will observe all the committee activities, ensure that people from your language or project manage to apply for a scholarship, translate scholarship applications written in your language to English and so on. Ambassadors are allowed to ask for a scholarship, unlike committee members.

Harassment consultation

Please help translate to your language

The Community Advocacy team the Wikimedia Foundation has opened a consultation on the topic of harassment on Meta. The consultation period is intended to run for one month from today, November 16, and end on December 17. Please share your thoughts there on harassment-related issues facing our communities and potential solutions. (Note: this consultation is not intended to evaluate specific cases of harassment, but rather to discuss the problem of harassment itself.)

This is a message regarding the proposed 2015 Free Bassel banner. Translations are available.

Hi everyone,

This is to inform all Wikimedia contributors that a straw poll seeking your involvement has just been started on Meta-Wiki.

As some of your might be aware, a small group of Wikimedia volunteers have proposed a banner campaign informing Wikipedia readers about the urgent situation of our fellow Wikipedian, open source software developer and Creative Commons activist, Bassel Khartabil. An exemplary banner and an explanatory page have now been prepared, and translated into about half a dozen languages by volunteer translators.

We are seeking your involvement to decide if the global Wikimedia community approves starting a banner campaign asking Wikipedia readers to call on the Syrian government to release Bassel from prison. We understand that a campaign like this would be unprecedented in Wikipedia's history, which is why we're seeking the widest possible consensus among the community.

Given Bassel's urgent situation and the resulting tight schedule, we ask everyone to get involved with the poll and the discussion to the widest possible extent, and to promote it among your communities as soon as possible.

(Apologies for writing in English; please kindly translate this message into your own language.)

Thank you for your participation!

This is a message from the Wikimedia Foundation. Translations are available.

As many of you know, January 15 is Wikipedia’s 15th Birthday!

People around the world are getting involved in the celebration and have started adding their events on Meta Page. While we are celebrating Wikipedia's birthday, we hope that all projects and affiliates will be able to utilize this celebration to raise awareness of our community's efforts.

Haven’t started planning? Don’t worry, there’s lots of ways to get involved. Here are some ideas:

Everything is linked on the Wikipedia 15 Meta page. You’ll find a set of ten data visualization works that you can show at your events, and a list of all the Wikipedia 15 logos that community members have already designed.

If you have any questions, please contact Zachary McCune or Joe Sutherland.

Thanks and Happy nearly Wikipedia 15!

2016 WMF Strategy consultation

Please help translate to your language

Hello, all.

The Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) has launched a consultation to help create and prioritize WMF strategy beginning July 2016 and for the 12 to 24 months thereafter. This consultation will be open, on Meta, from 18 January to 26 February, after which the Foundation will also use these ideas to help inform its Annual Plan. (More on our timeline can be found on that Meta page.)

Your input is welcome (and greatly desired) at the Meta discussion, 2016 Strategy/Community consultation.

Apologies for English, where this is posted on a non-English project. We thought it was more important to get the consultation translated as much as possible, and good headway has been made there in some languages. There is still much to do, however! We created m:2016 Strategy/Translations to try to help coordinate what needs translation and what progress is being made. :)

If you have questions, please reach out to me on my talk page or on the strategy consultation's talk page or by email to mdennis@wikimedia.org.

Server switch 2016

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

They will switch all traffic to the new data center on Tuesday, 19 April.
On Thursday, 21 April, they will switch back to the primary data center.

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

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

  • You will not be able to edit for approximately 15 to 30 minutes on Tuesday, 19 April and Thursday, 21 April, starting at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT).

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 a code freeze for the week of 18 April.

No non-essential code deployments will take place.

This test was originally planned to take place on March 22. April 19th and 21st are the new dates. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. They will post any changes on that schedule. There will be more notifications about this. Please share this information with your community. /User:Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 17 apr 2016, 21.08 (UTC)[beäntwurdzje]

Compact Language Links enabled in this wiki today

Please help translate to your language

Screenshot of Compact Language Links interlanguage list

Compact Language Links has been available as a beta-feature on all Wikimedia wikis since 2014. With compact language links enabled, users are shown a much shorter list of languages on the interlanguage link section of an article (see image). Based on several factors, this shorter list of languages is expected to be more relevant for them and valuable for finding similar content in a language known to them. More information about compact language links can be found in the documentation.

From today onwards, compact language links has been enabled as the default listing of interlanguage links on this wiki. Using the button at the bottom, you will be able to see a longer list of all the languages the article has been written in. The setting for this compact list can be changed by using the checkbox under User Preferences -> Appearance -> Languages

The compact language links feature has been tested extensively by the Wikimedia Language team, which developed it. However, in case there are any problems or other feedback please let us know on the project talk page or on this discussion thread. It is to be noted that on some wikis the presence of an existing older gadget that was used for a similar purpose may cause an interference for compact language list. We would like to bring this to the attention of the admins of this wiki. Full details are on this phabricator ticket (in English).

Due to the large scale enablement of this feature, we have had to use MassMessage for this announcement and as a result it is only written in English. We will really appreciate if this message can be translated for other users of this wiki. Thank you.

We are having a problem with attackers taking over wiki accounts with privileged user rights (for example, admins, bureaucrats, oversighters, checkusers). It appears that this may be because of weak or reused passwords.

Community members are working along with members of multiple teams at the Wikimedia Foundation to address this issue.

In the meantime, we ask that everyone takes a look at the passwords they have chosen for their wiki accounts. If you know that you've chosen a weak password, or if you've chosen a password that you are using somewhere else, please change those passwords.

Select strong passwords – eight or more characters long, and containing letters, numbers, and punctuation. Joe Sutherland (oerlis) / MediaWiki message delivery (oerlis) 13 nov 2016, 23.59 (UTC)[beäntwurdzje]

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.

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

As we mentioned last month, the Wikimedia movement is beginning a movement-wide strategy discussion, a process which will run throughout 2017. This movement strategy discussion will focus on the future of our movement: where we want to go together, and what we want to achieve.

Regular updates are being sent to the Wikimedia-l mailing list, and posted on Meta-Wiki. Each month, we are sending overviews of these updates 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 overview of the updates that have been sent since our message last month:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

On behalf of the Election Committee,
Katie Chan, Chair, Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee
Joe Sutherland, Community Advocate, Wikimedia Foundation

Consultation on the creation of a separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS

New user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS

Editing of sitewide CSS/JS is only possible for interface administrators from now

(Please help translate to your language)

Hi all,

as announced previously, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed: only members of the interface-admin (Omjouwingsbehearders) group, and a few highly privileged global groups such as stewards, can edit CSS/JS pages that they do not own (that is, any page ending with .css or .js that is either in the MediaWiki: namespace or is another user's user subpage). This is done to improve the security of readers and editors of Wikimedia projects. More information is available at Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS. If you encounter any unexpected problems, please contact me or file a bug.

Thanks!

No editing for 30 minutes on 17 January

You will not be able to edit the wikis for up to 30 minutes on 17 January 07:00 UTC. This is because of a database problem that has to be fixed immediately. You can still read the wikis. Some wikis are not affected. They don't get this message. You can see which wikis are not affected on this page. Most wikis are affected.
