Update on the consultation about office actions

Hello all,

Last month, the Wikimedia Foundation's Trust & Safety team announced a future consultation about partial and/or temporary office actions. We want to let you know that the draft version of this consultation has now been posted on Meta.

This is a draft. It is not intended to be the consultation itself, which will be posted on Meta likely in early September. Please do not treat this draft as a consultation. Instead, we ask your assistance in forming the final language for the consultation.

For that end, we would like your input over the next couple of weeks about what questions the consultation should ask about partial and temporary Foundation office action bans and how it should be formatted. Please post it on the draft talk page. Our goal is to provide space for the community to discuss all the aspects of these office actions that need to be discussed, and we want to ensure with your feedback that the consultation is presented in the best way to encourage frank and constructive conversation.

Please visit the consultation draft on Meta-wiki and leave your comments on the draft’s talk page about what the consultation should look like and what questions it should ask.

Thank you for your input! -- The Trust & Safety team ‏۱۶ اوت ۲۰۱۹، ساعت ۱۲:۳۳ (+0430)

New tools and IP masking

Hey everyone,

The Wikimedia Foundation wants to work on two things that affect how we patrol changes and handle vandalism and harassment. We want to make the tools that are used to handle bad edits better. We also want to get better privacy for unregistered users so their IP addresses are no longer shown to everyone in the world. We would not hide IP addresses until we have better tools for patrolling.

We have an idea of what tools could be working better and how a more limited access to IP addresses would change things, but we need to hear from more wikis. You can read more about the project on Meta and post comments and feedback. Now is when we need to hear from you to be able to give you better tools to handle vandalism, spam and harassment.

You can post in your language if you can't write in English.

Any activity lately?

I don't know Persian (Farsi) language very well. I know that one recent article has been made. I also noticed that the Main Page of Persian Wikinews highlights articles from years ago, including one from 2017. Is there any chance that the project is still viable and active lately? Please feel free to comment. Thanks. --George Ho (بحث) ‏۱ سپتامبر ۲۰۱۹، ساعت ۰۳:۱۶ (IRDT)

The consultation on partial and temporary Foundation bans just started

Hello,

In a recent statement, the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees requested that staff hold a consultation to "re-evaluat[e] or add community input to the two new office action policy tools (temporary and partial Foundation bans)".

Accordingly, the Foundation's Trust & Safety team invites all Wikimedians to join this consultation and give their feedback from 30 September to 30 October.

How can you help?

• Suggest how partial and temporary Foundation bans should be used, if they should (eg: On all projects, or only on a subset);

• Give ideas about how partial and temporary Foundation bans should ideally implemented, if they should be; and/or

• Propose changes to the existing Office Actions policy on partial and temporary bans.

We offer our thanks in advance for your contributions, and we hope to get as much input as possible from community members during this consultation!

Feedback wanted on Desktop Improvements project

سلام. تیم خوانندگان وب در بنیاد ویکی‌مدیا در حال کار کردن روی بهبود رابط کاربری دسکتاپ در چند سال آینده است. هدف این کار،‌ افزایش استفاده‌پذیری این رابط کاربری بدون حذف هیچ قابلیتی است. ما ایده‌هایمان را از فعالیت‌های داوطلبان گرفته‌ایم که اکنون فقط به صورت ابزارک‌های محلی، اسکریپت‌های کاربران، پیش‌نمونه‌ها، و پوسته‌های داوطلبانه ساخته شده وجود دارد. ما علاقه داریم که برخی از ایده‌های این تغییرات را به عنوان تجربه پیش‌فرض در تمام پروژه‌های ویکی‌مدیا بیاوریم.

ما اکنون در مرحله پژوهش روی این پروژه هستیم و دنبال ایده‌های بهبود به همراه بازخورد روی ایده‌های کنونی و طراحی‌هایمان می‌گردیم. ما مصاحبه‌هایی با اعضای جامعه در ویکی‌مانیا انجام داده‌ایم و فهرست داوطلبان و کارمندان بنیاد که در این زمینه کار کرده‌اند را نیز جمع‌آوری کرده‌ایم. اکنون در حال بررسی روش‌های فنی دست‌یابی به اهداف هستیم.

ما درخواست برای بازخورد در موارد زیر را داریم:

• کشف بخش‌های تمرکز که هنوز کشف نشده‌اند
• گسترش فهرست ابزارک‌ها و اسکریپت‌های کاربران که برای بهتر کردن تجربه دسکتاپ ساخته شده‌اند. اگر شما موردی را سراغ دارید لطفا اطلاع دهید.
• بازخورد روی ایده‌ها و طراحی‌هایی که تاکنون انجام شده‌است.

ما علاقه داریم که فهرستی از ویکی‌هایی که علاقه دارند در مرحله تست این پروژه قرار بگیرند را جمع‌آوری کنیم. این ویکی‌ها اولین ویکی‌هایی خواهند بود که بروزرسانی‌ها را دریافت خواهند کرد، زمانی که ما شروع به ساختن کنیم.

در هنگام دادن بازخورد،‌ لطفا موارد زیر را در نظر داشته‌باشید:

• تمرکز روی محتوا را آسانتر می‌کند
• دسترسی آسانتری به قابلیت‌های روزمره (مانند، جستجو، تغییر زبان، ویرایش) اضافه می‌کند
• اشیا را در محل‌های منطقی و کاربردی می‌گذارد
• شباهت بیشتری با دیگر سکوها (تلفن همراه و اپ) خواهد داشت.
• درهم‌ریختگی را حذف می‌کند
• برنامه‌ریزی برای پیشرفت‌های آینده را اضافه می‌کند

همچنین محدودیت‌های زیر:

• ما به محتوا دست نخواهیم زد - هیچ کاری در مورد تغییر ظاهر الگوها یا ساختار محتوای صفحات انجام نخواهد گرفت.
• هیچ قابلیتی حذف نخواهد شد - چیزها ممکن است جابجا شوند اما همه قابلیت‌های ناوبری و دیگر قابلیت‌های در دسترس کنونی به عنوان پیش‌فرض خواهند ماند.
• تغییر ناگهانی در ساختار رخ نخواهد داد - ما تغییرات را به آرامی و مرحله‌به‌مرحله اعمال می‌کنیم تا وب‌گاه احساس آشنا بودن به خوانندگان و ویراستاران را منتقل کند.

لطفا همه بازخوردهایتان را (به هر زبانی) در mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements اضافه کنید.

بعد از این دوره از بازخورد، ما برنامه داریم که یک پیش‌نمونه از تغییرات پیشنهاد شده را بر اساس بازخوردهای دریافتی بسازیم. شما به زودی از ما درباره بازخورد از پیش‌نمونه را خواهید شنید.

با تشکر! Quiddity (WMF) (talk)

Editing News #2 – Mobile editing and talk pages

Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter

Inside this newsletter, the Editing team talks about their work on the mobile visual editor, on the new talk pages project, and at Wikimania 2019.

Help

What talk page interactions do you remember? Is it a story about how someone helped you to learn something new? Is it a story about how someone helped you get involved in a group? Something else? Whatever your story is, we want to hear it!

Please tell us a story about how you used a talk page. Please share a link to a memorable discussion, or describe it on the talk page for this project. The team wants your examples. These examples will help everyone develop a shared understanding of what this project should support and encourage.

Talk pages project

The Talk Pages Consultation was a global consultation to define better tools for wiki communication. From February through June 2019, more than 500 volunteers on 20 wikis, across 15 languages and multiple projects, came together with members of the Foundation to create a product direction for a set of discussion tools. The Phase 2 Report of the Talk Page Consultation was published in August. It summarizes the product direction the team has started to work on, which you can read more about here: Talk Page Project project page.

The team needs and wants your help at this early stage. They are starting to develop the first idea. Please add your name to the "Getting involved" section of the project page, if you would like to hear about opportunities to participate.

Mobile visual editor

The Editing team is trying to make it simpler to edit on mobile devices. The team is changing the visual editor on mobile. If you have something to say about editing on a mobile device, please leave a message at Talk:VisualEditor on mobile.

Edit Cards

What happens when you click on a link. The new Edit Card is bigger and has more options for editing links.

• On 3 September, the Editing team released version 3 of Edit Cards. Anyone could use the new version in the mobile visual editor.
• There is an updated design on the Edit Card for adding and modifying links. There is also a new, combined workflow for editing a link's display text and target.
• Feedback: You can try the new Edit Cards by opening the mobile visual editor on a smartphone. Please post your feedback on the Edit cards talk page.

Toolbar

The editing toolbar is changing in the mobile visual editor. The old system had two different toolbars. Now, all the buttons are together. Tell the team what you think about the new toolbar.

• In September, the Editing team updated the mobile visual editor's editing toolbar. Anyone could see these changes in the mobile visual editor.
  • One toolbar: All of the editing tools are located in one toolbar. Previously, the toolbar changed when you clicked on different things.
  • New navigation: The buttons for moving forward and backward in the edit flow have changed.
  • Seamless switching: an improved workflow for switching between the visual and wikitext modes.
• Feedback: You can try the refreshed toolbar by opening the mobile VisualEditor on a smartphone. Please post your feedback on the Toolbar feedback talk page.

Wikimania

The Editing Team attended Wikimania 2019 in Sweden. They led a session on the mobile visual editor and a session on the new talk pages project. They tested two new features in the mobile visual editor with contributors. You can read more about what the team did and learned in the team's report on Wikimania 2019.

Looking ahead

• Talk Pages Project: The team is thinking about the first set of proposed changes. The team will be working with a few communities to pilot those changes. The best way to stay informed is by adding your username to the list on the project page: Getting involved.
• Testing the mobile visual editor as the default: The Editing team plans to post results before the end of the calendar year. The best way to stay informed is by adding the project page to your watchlist: VisualEditor as mobile default project page.
• Measuring the impact of Edit Cards: This study asks whether the project helped editors add links and citations. The Editing team hopes to share results in November. The best way to stay informed is by adding the project page to your watchlist: Edit Cards project page.

Additional interface for edit conflicts on talk pages

Sorry, for writing this text in English. If you could help to translate it, it would be appreciated.

You might know the new interface for edit conflicts (currently a beta feature). Now, Wikimedia Germany is designing an additional interface to solve edit conflicts on talk pages. This interface is shown to you when you write on a discussion page and another person writes a discussion post in the same line and saves it before you do. With this additional editing conflict interface you can adjust the order of the comments and edit your comment. We are inviting everyone to have a look at the planned feature. Let us know what you think on our central feedback page! -- For the Technical Wishes Team: Max Klemm (WMDE) ‏۲۶ فوریهٔ ۲۰۲۰، ساعت ۱۷:۴۴ (+0330)

This early version of the Reply tool automatically signs and indents comments.

The Editing team has been working on the talk pages project. The goal of the talk pages project is to help contributors communicate on wiki more easily. This project is the result of the Talk pages consultation 2019.

In a future update, the team plans to test a tool for easily linking to another user's name, a rich-text editing option, and other tools.

The team is building a new tool for replying to comments now. This early version can sign and indent comments automatically. Please test the new Reply tool.

• On 31 March 2020, the new پاسخ tool was offered as a Beta Feature editors at four Wikipedias: Arabic, Dutch, French, and Hungarian. If your community also wants early access to the new tool, contact User:Whatamidoing (WMF).
• The team is planning some upcoming changes. Please review the proposed design and share your thoughts on the talk page. The team will test features such as:
  • an easy way to mention another editor ("pinging"),
  • a rich-text visual editing option, and
  • other features identified through user testing or recommended by editors.

To hear more about Editing Team updates, please add your name to the "Get involved" section of the project page. You can also watch these pages: the main project page, Updates, Replying, and User testing.

The new features include a toolbar. What do you think should be in the toolbar?

This issue of the Editing newsletter includes information the Talk pages project, an effort to help contributors communicate on wiki more easily.

• Reply tool: This is available as a Beta Feature at the four partner wikis (Arabic, Dutch, French, and Hungarian Wikipedias). The Beta Feature is called "ابزارهای گفت‌وگو". The Beta Feature will get new features soon. The new features include writing comments in a new visual editing mode and pinging other users by typing @. You can test the new features on the Beta Cluster now. Some other wikis will have a chance to try the Beta Feature in the coming months.
• New requirements for user signatures: Soon, users will not be able to save invalid custom signatures in Special:Preferences. This will reduce signature spoofing, prevent page corruption, and make new talk page tools more reliable. Most editors will not be affected.
• New discussion tool: The Editing team is beginning work on a simpler process for starting new discussions. You can see the initial design on the project page.
• Research on the use of talk pages: The Editing team worked with the Wikimedia research team to study how talk pages help editors improve articles. We learned that new editors who use talk pages make more edits to the main namespace than new editors who don't use talk pages.

More than 50 million edits have been made using the visual editor on desktop.

Seven years ago this month, the Editing team offered the visual editor to most Wikipedia editors. Since then, editors have achieved many milestones:

• More than 50 million edits have been made using the visual editor on desktop.
• More than 2 million new articles have been created in the visual editor. More than 600,000 of these new articles were created during 2019.
• The visual editor is increasingly popular. The proportion of all edits made using the visual editor has increased every year since its introduction.
• In 2019, 35% of the edits by newcomers (logged-in editors with ≤99 edits) used the visual editor. This percentage has increased every year.
• Almost 5 million edits on the mobile site have been made with the visual editor. Most of these edits have been made since the Editing team started improving the mobile visual editor in 2018.
• On 17 November 2019, the first edit from outer space was made in the mobile visual editor. 🚀 👩‍🚀
• Editors have made more than 7 million edits in the 2017 wikitext editor, including starting 600,000 new articles in it. The 2017 wikitext editor is VisualEditor's built-in wikitext mode. You can enable it in your preferences.

Announcing a new wiki project! Welcome, Abstract Wikipedia

Hi all,

It is my honor to introduce Abstract Wikipedia, a new project that has been unanimously approved by the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. Abstract Wikipedia proposes a new way to generate baseline encyclopedic content in a multilingual fashion, allowing more contributors and more readers to share more knowledge in more languages. It is an approach that aims to make cross-lingual cooperation easier on our projects, increase the sustainability of our movement through expanding access to participation, improve the user experience for readers of all languages, and innovate in free knowledge by connecting some of the strengths of our movement to create something new.

This is our first new project in over seven years. Abstract Wikipedia was submitted as a project proposal by Denny Vrandečić in May 2020 after years of preparation and research, leading to a detailed plan and lively discussions in the Wikimedia communities. We know that the energy and the creativity of the community often runs up against language barriers, and information that is available in one language may not make it to other language Wikipedias. Abstract Wikipedia intends to look and feel like a Wikipedia, but build on the powerful, language-independent conceptual models of Wikidata, with the goal of letting volunteers create and maintain Wikipedia articles across our polyglot Wikimedia world.

The project will allow volunteers to assemble the fundamentals of an article using words and entities from Wikidata. Because Wikidata uses conceptual models that are meant to be universal across languages, it should be possible to use and extend these building blocks of knowledge to create models for articles that also have universal value. Using code, volunteers will be able to translate these abstract “articles” into their own languages. If successful, this could eventually allow everyone to read about any topic in Wikidata in their own language.

As you can imagine, this work will require a lot of software development, and a lot of cooperation among Wikimedians. In order to make this effort possible, Denny will join the Foundation as a staff member in July and lead this initiative. You may know Denny as the creator of Wikidata, a long-time community member, a former staff member at Wikimedia Deutschland, and a former Trustee at the Wikimedia Foundation . We are very excited that Denny will bring his skills and expertise to work on this project alongside the Foundation’s product, technology, and community liaison teams.

It is important to acknowledge that this is an experimental project, and that every Wikipedia community has different needs. This project may offer some communities great advantages. Other communities may engage less. Every language Wikipedia community will be free to choose and moderate whether or how they would use content from this project.

We are excited that this new wiki-project has the possibility to advance knowledge equity through increased access to knowledge. It also invites us to consider and engage with critical questions about how and by whom knowledge is constructed. We look forward to working in cooperation with the communities to think through these important questions.

There is much to do as we begin designing a plan for Abstract Wikipedia in close collaboration with our communities. I encourage you to get involved by going to the project page and joining the new mailing list . We recognize that Abstract Wikipedia is ambitious, but we also recognize its potential. We invite you all to join us on a new, unexplored path.

Yours,

Katherine Maher (Executive Director, Wikimedia Foundation)

بنیاد ویکی مدیا در نظر دارد تا مرکز ثانوی داده خود را به آزمایش بگذارد. این امر سبب می‌شود که ویکی‌پدیا و دیگر ویکی‌های ویکی‌مدیا حتی پس از حوادث نیز برخط بمانند. برای این که مطمئن شویم همه چیز به درستی کار می کند،بخش تکنولوژی ویکی پدیا نیاز دارد تا یک تست برنامه ریزی شده را به انجام برساند. این تست نشان می دهد که می توان به صورتی قابل اعتماد از یک دیتا سنتر به دیگری جابه جا شد. این امر نیاز دارد تا تعدادی از تیم ها برای تست آماده و برای رفع خطاهای غیر منتظره در دسترس باشند.

عملیات سوئیچ یا همان جابجایی ترافیک کاربران به مرکز داده ثانویه در روز چهارشنبه یکم سپتامبر ۲۰۲۰ انجام می گیرد.

متاسفانه به دلیل برخی از محدودیت ها در ویکی‌مدیا، تمام ویرایش‌ها همزمان با فرآیند عملیات سوئیج متوقف خواهند شد. پیشاپیش به‌خاطر این مشکلات عذرخواهی می‌کنیم و برآنیم تا در آینده چنین اتفاقاتی را به حداقل برسانیم.

شما می‌توانید مقالات ویکی‌ها را بخوانید،‌ ولی قابلیت ویرایش برای مدت کوتاهی غیرفعال خواهد شد.

• شما در چهارشنبه یکم سپتامبر تا یک ساعت شما قادر به ویرایش نخواهید بود. آزمون در {$ساعت 14:00به وقت ساعت هماهنگ جهانی (UTC) }(15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST و در نیو زلاند در ساعت 02:00 به وقت نیو زلاند روز چهار شنبه دوم سپتامبر برگزار خواهد شد).
• اگر در زمان‌های نام برده تلاش کنید مقاله‌ای را ویرایش یا ذخیره کنید، پیام خطایی را مشاهده خواهید کرد. ما امیدواریم که ویرایشی در زمان های نام برده از بین نرود ولی نمی توانیم این امر را تضمین کنیم. اگر پیام خطا را مشاهده کردید، لطفا تا بازگشت همه چیز به حالت عادی شکیبا باشید. بعد از آن شما باید بتوانید که تغییرات را ذخیره کنید. ولی توصیخ می‌کنیم که برای آسودگی خاطر یک کپی از تغییراتتان تهیه کنید.

اثرات دیگر:

• کارهای پس زمینه کندتر خواهند بود و بعضی از انها شاید رها شوند. ممکن است لینک های قرمز به سرعت عادی خود اپدیت نشوند. اگر مقاله ای که در جایی دیگر لینک شده را بوجود آورید، لینک آن مدت زمانی طولانی‌تر قرمز خواهند بود. برخی از اسکریپت های سنگین متوقف خواهند شد.
• در طول هفته‌ای که در یکم سپتامبر ۲۰۲۰ آغاز می‌شود اجرای کدها با اختلال مواجه خواهد بود. انتشار کدهای غیرضروری صورت نخواهد گرفت.

این پروژه ممکن است در صورت لزوم به تعویق بیفتد. شما می توانید برنامه را در wikitech.wikimedia.org مطالعه کنید. هر تغییری از پیش در برنامه اعلان خواهد شد. در روزهای آتی اعلانات دیگری در این مورد منتشر خواهد شد. لطفا این اطلاعات را با دیگران در اشتراک بگذارید.

Update to ICU Unicode library

Starting on November 16, we will migrate the servers running the MediaWiki application servers to a new release of the ICU Unicode library (w:International Components for Unicode) (from version 57 to 63).

This unblocks some future work on upgrading the servers to a new Operating System release and will also allow the use of improved internationalisation in the future (as wikis will then be able to use features introduced by the new ICU release such as new collation definitions, and allows us to use a more recent version of Unicode in MediaWiki).

This migration will cause some unavoidable temporary user-visible impact: The sorting of some category pages will be distorted – all pages which have been updated with the new software version will use the new sorting while untouched pages still use the old sorting. As such, we need to run a maintenance script to update the sorting for old entries.

The distortions may last from a few hours (on medium-sized wikis), up to a day (on the largest wikis), and a few days on English Wikipedia. The start-time will depend upon when the migration script reaches each wiki.

This affects 149 wikis (including eight out of the ten biggest Wikipedias). The detailed list and the task for the technical implementation is at T264991.

Thank you.

Global bot policy proposal: invitation to a Meta discussion

سلام!

I apologize for sending a message in English. لطفاً برای ترجمه به زبان مادریتان کمک کنید. 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,

Wikidata descriptions changes to be included more often in Recent Changes and Watchlist

Sorry for sending this message in English. Translations are available on this page. Feel free to translate it in more languages!

As you may know, you can include changes coming from Wikidata in your Watchlist and Recent Changes (in your preferences). Until now, this feature didn’t always include changes made on Wikidata descriptions due to the way Wikidata tracks the data used in a given article.

Starting on December 3rd, the Watchlist and Recent Changes will include changes on the descriptions of Wikidata Items that are used in the pages that you watch. This will only include descriptions in the language of your wiki to make sure that you’re only seeing changes that are relevant to your wiki.

This improvement was requested by many users from different projects. We hope that it can help you monitor the changes on Wikidata descriptions that affect your wiki and participate in the effort of improving the data quality on Wikidata for all Wikimedia wikis and beyond.

Note: if you didn’t use the Wikidata watchlist integration feature for a long time, feel free to give it another chance! The feature has been improved since the beginning and the content it displays is more precise and useful than at the beginning of the feature in 2015.

If you encounter any issue or want to provide feedback, feel free to use this Phabricator ticket. Thanks!

Proposal: Set two-letter project shortcuts as alias to project namespace globally

لطفاً برای ترجمه به زبان مادریتان کمک کنید

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, ویکی‌خبر 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) ‏۱۸ فوریهٔ ۲۰۲۱، ساعت ۱۷:۴۲ (+0330)
