Bot policy[wysig]
Hello. To facilitate steward granting of bot access, I suggest implementing the standard bot policy on this wiki. In particular, this policy allows stewards to automatically flag known interlanguage linking bots (if this page says that is acceptable), which form the vast majority of such requests. The policy also enables global bots on this wiki (if this page says that is acceptable), which are trusted bots that will be given bot access on every wiki that allows global bots.
This policy makes bot access requesting much easier for local users, operators, and stewards. To implement it we only need to create a redirect to this page from Project:Bot policy, and add a line at the top noting that it is used here. Please read the text at m:Bot policy before commenting. If you object, please say so; I hope to implement in two weeks 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.

IMPORTANT: Admin activity review[wysig]
Apologies for writing in English; if you can translate this notice to help other readers then please do so.
A new policy regarding the removal of "advanced rights" (administrator, bureaucrat, etc) was recently adopted by global community consensus (your community received a notice about the discussion). According to this policy, the stewards are reviewing administrators' activity on smaller wikis. To the best of our knowledge, your wiki does not have a formal process for removing "advanced rights" from inactive accounts. This means that the stewards will take care of this according to the new admin activity review here.
We have determined that the following users meet the inactivity criteria (no edits and no log actions for more than 2 years):
- Adriaan90 (administrator)
These users will receive a notification soon, asking them to start a community discussion if they want to retain some or all of their rights. If the users do not respond, then their advanced rights will be removed by the stewards.
However, if you as a community would like to create your own activity review process superseding the global one, want to make another decision about these inactive rights holders, or already have a policy that we missed, then please notify the stewards on Meta-Wiki so that we know not to proceed with the rights review on your wiki. Thanks, QuiteUnusual (kontak) 12:19, 19 Augustus 2013 (UTC)
Global AbuseFilter[wysig]
AbuseFilter is a MediaWiki extension used to detect likely abusive behavior patterns, like pattern vandalism and spam. In 2013, Global AbuseFilters were enabled on a limited set of wikis including Meta-Wiki, MediaWiki.org, Wikispecies and (in early 2014) all the "small wikis". Recently, global abuse filters were enabled on "medium sized wikis" as well. These filters are currently managed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and have shown to be very effective in preventing mass spam attacks across Wikimedia projects. However, there is currently no policy on how the global AbuseFilters will be managed although there are proposals. There is an ongoing request for comment on policy governing the use of the global AbuseFilters. In the meantime, specific wikis can opt out of using the global AbuseFilter. These wikis can simply add a request to this list on Meta-Wiki. More details can be found on this page at Meta-Wiki. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on m:Talk:Global AbuseFilter.
Thanks,

Compact Language Links enabled in this wiki today[wysig]
Help met die vertaal na uw taal

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.

Improved search in deleted pages archive[wysig]
Help met die vertaal na uw taal
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.

Update on page issues on mobile web[wysig]
Update on page issues on mobile web
Help met die vertaal na uw taal Hi everyone. The Readers web team has recently begun working on exposing issue templates on the mobile website. Currently, details about issues with page content are generally hidden on the mobile website. This leaves readers unaware of the reliability of the pages they are reading. The goal of this project is to improve awareness of particular issues within an article on the mobile web. We will do this by changing the visual styling of page issues.
So far, we have drafted a proposal on the design and implementation of the project. We were also able to run user testing on the proposed designs. The tests so far have positive results. Here is a quick summary of what we learned:
- The new treatment increases awareness of page issues among participants. This is true particularly when they are in a more evaluative/critical mode.
- Page issues make sense to readers and they understand how they work
- Readers care about page issues and consider them important
- Readers had overwhelmingly positive sentiments towards Wikipedia associated with learning about page issues
Our next step would be to start implementing these changes. We wanted to reach out to you for any concerns, thoughts, and suggestions you might have before beginning development. Please visit the project page where we have more information and mockups of how this may look. Please leave feedback on the talk page.

Global bot policy proposal: invitation to a Meta discussion[wysig]
Hallo!
I apologize for sending a message in English. Help met die vertaal na uw taal. According to the list, your wiki project currently is opted in to the global bot policy. Under this policy, bots that fix double redirects or maintain interwiki links are allowed to operate under a global bot flag that is assigned directly by the stewards.
As the Wikimedia projects developed, the need for the current global bot policy decreased, and in the past years, no bots were appointed via that policy. That is mainly given Wikidata were estabilished in 2013, and it is no longer necessary to have dozens of bots that maintain interwiki links.
A proposal was made at Meta-Wiki, which proposes that the stewards will be authorized to determine whether an uncontroversial task may be assigned a global bot flag. The stewards already assign permissions that are more impactful on many wikis, namely, global sysops and global renamers, and I do not think that trust should be an issue. The stewards will assign the permission only to time-proven bots that are already approved at a number of projects, like ListeriaBot.
By this message, I would like to invite you to comment in the global RFC, to voice your opinion about this matter.
Thank you for your time.
Best regards,

Universal Code of Conduct enforcement consultations[wysig]
Dear all,
you may know me under my Wikimedia username – Nadzik. I came here last year to contribute to your project as well as I can. I am sorry for writing to you in English, but this will make the message more understandable, than using an automatic translator. Feel free to translate my post!
Over the next few weeks, Wikimedia Foundation will be consulting on the implementation and the enforcement of the Universal Code of Conduct, which will constitute an appendix to the currently applicable Terms of Use.
What is the Universal Code of Conduct?[wysig]
The UCoC is intended to serve as a document that will incorporate the basic standards of behaviour in order to standardize them across all Wikimedia projects. It aims to include a list of inappropriate behaviours that will not be accepted in our projects, and also takes care of the safety of all users.
It is also intended to provide a common ground in those communities that do not have their own specific regulations and rules on this subject. It will widely help smaller and younger projects that have not yet had the opportunity to write down their own rules related to the inappropriate behaviour of their contributors.
Consultations carried out in 2019 and in the first half of 2020 allowed for the preparation of a preliminary proposal of rules, however, there are still no provisions related to the implementation of the UCoC. To this end consultations started in many Wikimedia project communities.
How will the consultations work?[wysig]
In January and February 2021, nine language facilitators from the Wikimedia Foundation will engage in a series of consultations with different language communities (including Wikidata and Commons user communities). I've also asked to be allowed consulting with the Afrikaans community, as I've had the pleasure to work with some of you before. In the coming weeks, we will have the opportunity to talk together about your views, visions and ideas for implementation in connection with the introduction of UCoC .
The goal of the Wikimedia Foundation is to obtain information from various communities, and only on the basis of the currently conducted consultations, our team will prepare and present reports and various possibilities of implementing UCoC into force. I encourage everyone to share their opinion with me and with other members of our community. Starting in February, some of you may also be contacted by a dedicated affiliate outreach or user group outreach.
How to participate?[wysig]
Feel free to express your opinion in the most convenient way for you. To enable everyone willing to participate in consultations, they will be conducted in several ways:
- Village pump discussion at af.wikipedia
- Opening a new thread on my User talk page
- Emailing me directly via Wikimail
Additionally, in the coming days, an anonymous poll will be launched for community members who would like to privately convey their feelings about the UCoC, as well as the spheres surrounding it (the state of the rules in our projects, unwanted situations and other developments you are willing to discuss).
I also invite you to visit FAQ-page, that already has answers to most frequently asked questions. If you have any questions, ping me, to make sure that I see your message!
I wish us all a fruitful debate! MNadzikiewicz (WMF) (kontak) 09:50, 20 Januarie 2021 (UTC)

Proposal: Set two-letter project shortcuts as alias to project namespace globally[wysig]
Help met die vertaal na uw taal
Hello everyone,
I apologize for posting in English. I would like to inform everyone that I created a new global request for comment (GRFC) at Meta Wiki, which may affect your project: m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally.
In this GRFC, I propose that two-project shortcuts for project names will become a default alias for the project namespace. For instance, on all Wikipedias, WP will be an alias to the Wikipedia: namespace (and similar for other projects). Full list is available in the GRFC.
This is already the case for Wikivoyages, and many individual projects asked for this alias to be implemented. I believe this makes it easier to access the materials in the project namespace, as well as creating shortcuts like WP:NPOV, as well as helps new projects to use this feature, without having to figure out how to request site configuration changes first.
As far as I can see, Wikibooks currently does not have such an alias set. This means that such an alias will be set for you, if the GRFC is accepted by the global community.
I would like to ask all community members to participate in the request for comment at Meta-Wiki, see m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally.
Please feel free to ask me if you have any questions about this proposal.
Best regards,
--Martin Urbanec (talk) 14:11, 18 Februarie 2021 (UTC)
Global bot policy changes[wysig]
Hallo!
I apologize for sending a message in English. Help met die vertaal na uw taal. According to the list, your wiki project is currently opted in to the global bot policy. As such, I want to let you know about some changes that were made after the global RfC was closed.
- Global bots are now subject to a 2 week discussion, and it'll be publicized via a MassMessage list, available at Bot policy/New global bot discussion on Meta. Please subscribe yourself or your wiki if you are interested in new global bots proposals.
- For a bot to be considered for approval, it must demonstrate it is welcomed in multiple projects, and a good way to do that is to have the bot flag on at least 5 wikis for a single task.
- The bot operator should make sure to adhere to the wiki's preference as related to the use of the bot flag (i.e., if a wiki doesn't want a bot to use the flag as it edits, that should be followed).
Thank you for your time.
Best regards,
—Thanks for the fish! talk•contribs 18:48, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks?[wysig]

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.
We have been working on it for the past three years. So far, it has been the default on more than 30 wikis, including sister projects, all accounting for more than 1 billion pageviews per month. On average 87% of active logged-in users of those wikis use Vector 2022.
It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy. Logged-in users can at any time switch to any other skins. No changes are expected for users of 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[wysig]
[Why is a change necessary] The current default skin meets the needs of the readers and editors as these were 13 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using Wikimedia projects. The old Vector doesn't meet their needs.
[Objective] The objective for the new skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It draws inspiration from previous requests, the Community Wishlist Surveys, and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. We reduced PHP code in Wikimedia deployed skins by 75%. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs.
[Changes and test results] The skin introduces a series of changes that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin.
- The sticky header makes it easier to find tools that editors use often. It decreases scrolling to the top of the page by 16%.
- The new table of contents makes it easier to navigate to different sections. Readers and editors jumped to different sections of the page 50% more than with the old table of contents. It also looks a bit different on talk pages.
- The new search bar is easier to find and makes it easier to find the correct search result from the list. This increased the amount of searches started by 30% on the wikis we tested on.
- The skin does not negatively affect pageviews, edit rates, or account creation. There is evidence of increases in pageviews and account creation across partner communities.
[Try it out] Try out the new skin by going to the appearance tab in your preferences and selecting Vector 2022 from the list of skins.
How can editors change and customize this skin?[wysig]
It's possible to configure and personalize our changes. We support volunteers who create new gadgets and user scripts. Check out our repository for a list of currently available customizations, or add your own.
Our plan[wysig]
If no large concerns are raised, we plan on deploying in the week of October 3, 2022. If your community would like to request more time to discuss the changes, hit the button and write to us. We can adjust the calendar.
If you'd like ask our team anything, if you have questions, concerns, or additional thoughts, please ping me here or write on the talk page of the project. We will gladly answer! Also, see our FAQ. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 04:14, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

Lees hierdie boodskap in 'n ander taal • Help met die vertaal na uw taal
Die Wikimedia Foundation toets sy sekondêre datasentrum. Dit sal verseker dat Wikipedia en die ander Wikimedia wiki's aanlyn kan bly, selfs ná 'n ramp. Om seker te maak dat alles werk, moet die afdeling Wikimedia Technology 'n beplande toets aflê. Hierdie toets sal wys of hulle betroubaar van die een datasentrum na die ander kan oorskakel. Dit verg baie spanne om voor te berei vir die toets en beskikbaar te wees om enige onverwagte probleme op te los.
Hulle sal alle verkeer na die sekondêre datacenter op 1 Maart oorskakel. Die toets begin om 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, en in Nieu-Seeland om 02:00 NZST op $date).
Ongelukkig, as gevolg van 'n paar beperkings in MediaWiki, alle redigering moet stop terwyl ons oorskakel. Ons vra om verskoning vir hierdie ontwrigting en werk daarna om dit in die toekoms tot die minimum te beperk.
U sal alle wiki's vir 'n kort tydjie kan lees, maar nie kan redigeer nie.
- U kan Woensdag 1 Maart 2023 nie tot 'n uur lank wysig nie.
- As u gedurende hierdie tye probeer redigeer of stoor, sal u 'n foutboodskap sien. Ons hoop dat geen wysigings verlore sal gaan gedurende hierdie minute nie, maar ons kan dit nie waarborg nie. As u die foutboodskap sien, wag dan totdat alles weer normaal is. Dan moet u u redigering kan stoor. Maar ons beveel aan dat u eers 'n afskrif van u wysigings maak, net vir ingeval.
Ander effekte:
- Agtergrondgeleenthede sal stadiger wees en sommige sal moontlik afgeneem word. Rooi skakels word moontlik nie so vinnig soos gewoonlik opgedateer nie. As u 'n artikel skep wat reeds elders gekoppel is, sal die skakel langer as gewoonlik rooi bly. Sommige skrifte met 'n lang hardloop moet gestop word.
- 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.

Wikimania 2023 Welcoming Program Submissions[wysig]

Seeking volunteers for the next step in the Universal Code of Conduct process[wysig]
Hello,
As follow-up to the message about the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines by Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Vice Chair, Shani Evenstein Sigalov, I am reaching out about the next steps. I want to bring your attention to the next stage of the Universal Code of Conduct process, which is forming a building committee for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C). I invite community members with experience and deep interest in community health and governance to nominate themselves to be part of the U4C building committee, which needs people who are:
- Community members in good standing
- Knowledgeable about movement community processes, such as, but not limited to, policy drafting, participatory decision making, and application of existing rules and policies on Wikimedia projects
- Aware and appreciative of the diversity of the movement, such as, but not limited to, languages spoken, identity, geography, and project type
- Committed to participate for the entire U4C Building Committee period from mid-May - December 2023
- Comfortable with engaging in difficult, but productive conversations
- Confidently able to communicate in English
The Building Committee shall consist of volunteer community members, affiliate board or staff, and Wikimedia Foundation staff.
The Universal Code of Conduct has been a process strengthened by the skills and knowledge of the community and I look forward to what the U4C Building Committee creates. If you are interested in joining the Building Committee, please either sign up on the Meta-Wiki page, or contact ucocprojectwikimedia.org by May 12, 2023. Read more on Meta-Wiki.

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, 15:35, 28 Augustus 2023 (UTC)
