Do you use Wikidata in Wikimedia sibling projects? Tell us about your experiences[brontekst bewerken]
Note: Apologies for cross-posting and sending in English.
Hello, the Wikidata for Wikimedia Projects team at Wikimedia Deutschland would like to hear about your experiences using Wikidata in the sibling projects. If you are interested in sharing your opinion and insights, please consider signing up for an interview with us in this Registration form.
Currently, we are only able to conduct interviews in English.
The front page of the form has more details about what the conversation will be like, including how we would compensate you for your time.
For more information, visit our project issue page where you can also share your experiences in written form, without an interview.
We look forward to speaking with you, Danny Benjafield (WMDE) (talk) 08:53, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
Reusing references: Can we look over your shoulder?[brontekst bewerken]
Apologies for writing in English.
The Technical Wishes team at Wikimedia Deutschland is planning to make reusing references easier. For our research, we are looking for wiki contributors willing to show us how they are interacting with references.
- The format will be a 1-hour video call, where you would share your screen. More information here.
- Interviews can be conducted in English, German or Dutch.
- Compensation is available.
- Sessions will be held in January and February.
- Sign up here if you are interested.
- Please note that we probably won’t be able to have sessions with everyone who is interested. Our UX researcher will try to create a good balance of wiki contributors, e.g. in terms of wiki experience, tech experience, editing preferences, gender, disability and more. If you’re a fit, she will reach out to you to schedule an appointment.
We’re looking forward to seeing you, Thereza Mengs (WMDE)
Feminism and Folklore 2024[brontekst bewerken]
![](http://webcf.waybackmachine.org/web/20240323230855im_/https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e2/Feminism_and_Folklore_2024_logo.svg/550px-Feminism_and_Folklore_2024_logo.svg.png)
Dear Wiki Community,
You are humbly invited to organize the Feminism and Folklore 2024 writing competition from February 1, 2023, to March 31, 2023 on your local Wikipedia. This year, Feminism and Folklore will focus on feminism, women's issues, and gender-focused topics for the project, with a Wiki Loves Folklore gender gap focus and a folk culture theme on Wikipedia.
You can help Wikipedia's coverage of folklore from your area by writing or improving articles about things like folk festivals, folk dances, folk music, women and queer folklore figures, folk game athletes, women in mythology, women warriors in folklore, witches and witch hunting, fairy tales, and more. Users can help create new articles, expand or translate from a generated list of suggested articles.
Organisers are requested to work on the following action items to sign up their communities for the project:
- Create a page for the contest on the local wiki.
- Set up a campaign on CampWiz tool.
- Create the local list and mention the timeline and local and international prizes.
- Request local admins for site notice.
- Link the local page and the CampWiz link on the meta project page.
This year, the Wiki Loves Folklore Tech Team has introduced two new tools to enhance support for the campaign. These tools include the Article List Generator by Topic and CampWiz. The Article List Generator by Topic enables users to identify articles on the English Wikipedia that are not present in their native language Wikipedia. Users can customize their selection criteria, and the tool will present a table showcasing the missing articles along with suggested titles. Additionally, users have the option to download the list in both CSV and wikitable formats. Notably, the CampWiz tool will be employed for the project for the first time, empowering users to effectively host the project with a jury. Both tools are now available for use in the campaign. Click here to access these tools
Learn more about the contest and prizes on our project page. Feel free to contact us on our meta talk page or by email us if you need any assistance.
We look forward to your immense coordination.
Thank you and Best wishes,

- You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki. Help met het vertalen in uw taal
Hello all,
I am writing to you today with two important pieces of information. First, the report of the comments from the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) Charter ratification is now available. Secondly, the call for candidates for the U4C is open now through April 1, 2024.
The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) is a global group dedicated to providing an equitable and consistent implementation of the UCoC. Community members are invited to submit their applications for the U4C. For more information and the responsibilities of the U4C, please review the U4C Charter.
Per the charter, there are 16 seats on the U4C: eight community-at-large seats and eight regional seats to ensure the U4C represents the diversity of the movement.

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees 2024 Selection[brontekst bewerken]
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)

[3] https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Minutes:2023-08-15#Governance_Committee
[4] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_committee/Roles
[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.

Jouw wiki zal binnenkort in de 'alleen-lezen' modus te gebruiken zijn[brontekst bewerken]
Lees dit bericht in een andere taal • Help met het vertalen in uw taal
De Wikimedia Foundation gaat overschakelen naar een ander datacenter. Dit zal er voor zorgen dat Wikipedia en andere Wikimedia-wiki's, zelfs na een ramp beschikbaar blijven.
Al het internetverkeer zal omgeschakeld worden op 20 maart. De test zal beginnen om 14:00 UTC.
Vanwege bepaalde beperkingen in MediaWiki is het helaas nodig om het bewerken van de wiki's tijdelijk in de 'alleen-lezen' modus te zetten. We verontschuldigen ons voor dit ongemak, en we doen onze uiterste best om de negatieve gevolgen, in de toekomst te minimaliseren.
U zult wel in staat zijn om artikelen te lezen, maar niet om deze te bewerken, gedurende een korte periode. Dit geldt voor alle wiki's.
- U zult gedurende een uur of langer lang niet in staat zijn bewerkingen door te voeren op woensdag 20 maart 2024.
- Tijdens het bewerken of opslaan gedurende deze tijd zult u een foutmelding zien. Wij hopen dat er geen bewerkingen verloren gaan, maar zijn hier niet zeker van. Wanneer u deze foutmelding te zien krijgt, wacht dan alstublieft tot alles weer normaal functioneert. Hierna kunt u uw bewerking opslaan. Toch raden we het ten zeerste aan dat u eerst een kopie maakt van uw bewerkingen maakt, gewoon uit voorzorg.
Andere effecten:
- Het uitvoeren van achtergrondtaken zal langzamer gaan, en sommige taken zouden mogelijk kunnen worden geannuleerd. Roodgekleurde koppelingen kunnen mogelijk niet zo snel bijgewerkt worden als gebruikelijk. Als u een artikel aanmaakt waarin ergens anders al naar verwezen wordt, zal de koppeling langer roodgekleurd blijven dan gebruikelijk. Sommige langlopende scripts zullen moeten worden onderbroken.
- We verwachten dat de uitrol van nieuwe code gebeurt zoals dat iedere week plaatsvindt. Het kan echter voorkomen dat sommige codewijzigingen per geval geblokkeerd worden, als de operatie ze later weer nodig heeft.
- GitLab zal ongeveer 90 minuten onbereikbaar zijn.
