Hi & please accept my congratulations on the 1st anniversary of the creation of sa.wikiquote.org which was on 6 February.
From the Wikimedia Incubator & Language Committee, we would like to get some feedback from newer wikis about their situation.
We prepared some questions about what we would like to know. Feel free to answer as many of them as you like.
How has activity developed after the subdomain's creation? (in comparision with the situation on Incubator)
Is it now easier to be found by new users? How was the reception of the new wiki: in media maybe? in friends/family circles?
Were your expectations in general fulfilled or not?
Would you have done something in a better/different way in hindsight?
Is there anything where you say 'This should have been better during the testing phase (Incubator, Langcom)'?
What was nice/easy/desirable on Incubator? :-)
Best regards, --

Request for approval
सम्पाद्यताम्
Hello all, because your wiki doesn't accept global bots and because at April 8th we will start migrating interwiki links from Wikiquote to Wikidata, I need to request for approval, so hereby I ask for approval, My bot (
Dexbot
) did the task of connecting pages of Wikipedia, Wikisource, and Wikivoyage before (and It had the responsibility of removing iw links from that Wikis). My bot already did this task very successfully and It has more than 12M edits in Wikidata which more than 10% of them are about connecting pages. Best

Global AbuseFilter
सम्पाद्यताम्
Hello,
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,

Hello, I wanted to give a heads up about an upcoming feature for this wiki, which you may already seen in the latest issue of
Tech News
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). This will be enabled as a feature in the coming week for all users, which can be turned on or off using a preference setting. We look forward to your feedback and please do let us know if you have any questions. Details about Compact Language Links can be read in the
project documentation
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. On behalf of the Wikimedia Language team:

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. However, 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
. 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).

Hello,
At the request of Wikipedia editors, a new feature has been added to MediaWiki. Long lists of references (also called citations or footnotes) will automatically be displayed in columns. This will make it easier for most people to read the references, especially on narrow screens. Short lists of references will not be affected.
I plan to enable this new feature at this wiki on Monday, 24 July 2017. After that date, use the normal

tag on any page with many references to see this feature. If you do not want columns used on that page, then use this wikitext code instead:

Bot policy
सम्पाद्यताम्
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.

New tools and IP masking
सम्पाद्यताम्
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.

The consultation on partial and temporary Foundation bans just started
सम्पाद्यताम्
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
सम्पाद्यताम्
कृपया अपनी भाषा में अनुवादित करने में सहायता करें
नमस्ते. The Readers Web team at the WMF will work on some
improvements to the desktop interface
over the next couple of years. The goal is to increase usability without removing any functionality. We have been inspired by changes made by volunteers, but that currently only exist as local gadgets and user scripts, prototypes, and volunteer-led skins. We would like to begin the process of bringing some of these changes into the default experience on all Wikimedia projects.
We are currently in the research stage of this project and are looking for ideas for improvements, as well as feedback on our current ideas and mockups. So far, we have performed interviews with community members at Wikimania. We have gathered lists of previous volunteer and WMF work in this area. We are examining possible technical approaches for such changes.
We would like individual feedback on the following:
Identifying focus areas for the project we have not yet discovered
Expanding the list of existing gadgets and user scripts that are related to providing a better desktop experience. If you can think of some of these from your wiki, please let us know
Feedback on the ideas and mockups we have collected so far
We would also like to gather a list of wikis that would be interested in being test wikis for this project - these wikis would be the first to receive the updates once we’re ready to start building.
When giving feedback, please consider the following goals of the project:
Make it easier for readers to focus on the content
Provide easier access to everyday actions (e.g. search, language switching, editing)
Put things in logical and useful places
Increase consistency in the interface with other platforms - mobile web and the apps
Eliminate clutter
Plan for future growth
As well as the following constraints:
Not touching the content - no work will be done in terms of styling templates or to the structure of page contents themselves
Not removing any functionality - things might move around, but all navigational items and other functionality currently available by default will remain
No drastic changes to the layout - we're taking an evolutionary approach to the changes and want the site to continue feeling familiar to readers and editors
Please give all feedback (in any language) at
mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements
After this round of feedback, we plan on building a prototype of suggested changes based on the feedback we receive. You’ll hear from us again asking for feedback on this prototype.

Feedback on movement names
सम्पाद्यताम्
नमस्ते. Apologies if you are not reading this message in your native language. कृपया अपनी भाषा में अनुवादित करने में सहायता करें if necessary. कृतज्ञतां निवेदयामि !
There are a lot of conversations happening about the future of our movement names. We hope that you are part of these discussions and that your community is represented.
Since 16 June, the Foundation Brand Team has been running a
survey
in 7 languages about
3 naming options
. There are also community members sharing concerns about renaming in a
Community Open Letter
Our goal in this call for feedback is to hear from across the community, so we encourage you to participate in the survey, the open letter, or both. The survey will go through 7 July in all timezones. Input from the survey and discussions will be analyzed and published on Meta-Wiki.
Thanks for thinking about the future of the movement, --

Announcing a new wiki project! Welcome, Abstract Wikipedia
सम्पाद्यताम्
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)

The
Wikimedia Foundation
will be testing its secondary data centre. This will make sure that 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 do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre 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 secondary data centre on
Tuesday, September 1st 2020
Unfortunately, because of some limitations in
MediaWiki
, all editing must stop while the switch is made. 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 up to an hour on Tuesday, September 1st. The test will start at
14:00 UTC
(15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Wednesday September 2).
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 code freezes for the week of September 1st, 2020. Non-essential code deployments will not happen.
This project may be postponed if necessary. You can
read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org
. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this.
Please share this information with your community.

Wiki of functions naming contest
सम्पाद्यताम्
कृपया अपनी भाषा में अनुवादित करने में सहायता करें.
नमस्ते. Please help pick a name for the new Wikimedia wiki project. This project will be a wiki where the community can work together on a library of
functions
. The community can create new functions, read about them, discuss them, and share them. Some of these functions will be used to help create language-independent Wikipedia articles that can be displayed in any language, as part of the Abstract Wikipedia project. But functions will also be usable in many other situations.
There will be two rounds of voting, each followed by legal review of candidates, with voting beginning on 29 September and 27 October. Our goal is to have a final project name selected on 8 December. If you would like to participate, then

The
Wikimedia Foundation
tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers. This will make sure that 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 do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre 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 back to the primary data center on
Tuesday, October 27 2020
Unfortunately, because of some limitations in
MediaWiki
, all editing must stop while the switch is made. 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 up to an hour on Tuesday, October 27. The test will start at
14:00 UTC
(14:00 WET, 15:00 CET, 10:00 EDT, 19:30 IST, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 03:00 NZDT on Wednesday October 28).
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 code freezes for the week of October 26, 2020. Non-essential code deployments will not happen.
This project may be postponed if necessary. You can
read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org
. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this. A banner will be displayed on all wikis 30 minutes before this operation happens.
Please share this information with your community.

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

[Small wiki toolkits] Upcoming bots workshops: Understanding community needs
सम्पाद्यताम्
Greetings, as you may be aware that as part of
Small wiki toolkits - South Asia
, we conduct a workshop every month on technical topics to help small wikis. In February, we are planning on organizing a workshop on the topic of bots. Bots are automated tools that carry out repetitive, tedious and mundane tasks. To help us structure the workshop, we would like understand the needs of the community in this regard. Please let us know any of
a) repetitive/mundane tasks that you generally do, especially for maintenance
b) tasks you think can be automated on your wiki.
Please let us your inputs on

Call for feedback: WMF Community Board seats & Office hours tomorrow
सम्पाद्यताम्
(sorry for posting in English)
Dear Wikimedians,
The
Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees
is organizing a
call for feedback
about community selection processes between February 1 and March 14. Below you will find the problem statement and various ideas from the Board to address it. We are offering multiple channels for questions and feedback. With the help of a team of community facilitators, we are organizing multiple conversations with multiple groups in multiple languages.
During this call for feedback we publish weekly reports and we draft the final report that will be delivered to the Board. With the help of this report, the Board will approve the next steps to organize the selection of six community seats in the upcoming months. Three of these seats are due for renewal and three are new, recently approved.
Participate in this call for feedback and help us form a more diverse and better performing Board of Trustees!
Problems:
While the Wikimedia Foundation and the movement have grown about five times in the past ten years, the Board’s structure and processes have remained basically the same. As the Board is designed today, we have a problem of capacity, performance, and lack of representation of the movement’s diversity. This problem was identified in the Board’s 2019 governance review, along with recommendations for how to address it.
To solve the problem of capacity, we have agreed to increase the Board size to a maximum of 16 trustees (it was 10). Regarding performance and diversity, we have approved criteria to evaluate new Board candidates. What is missing is a process to promote community candidates that represent the diversity of our movement and have the skills and experience to perform well on the Board of a complex global organization.
Our current processes to select individual volunteer and affiliate seats have some limitations. Direct elections tend to favor candidates from the leading language communities, regardless of how relevant their skills and experience might be in serving as a Board member, or contributing to the ability of the Board to perform its specific responsibilities. It is also a fact that the current processes have favored volunteers from North America and Western Europe. Meanwhile, our movement has grown larger and more complex, our technical and strategic needs have increased, and we have new and more difficult policy challenges around the globe. As well, our Movement Strategy recommendations urge us to increase our diversity and promote perspectives from other regions and other social backgrounds.
In the upcoming months, we need to renew three community seats and appoint three more community members in the new seats. What process can we all design to promote and choose candidates that represent our movement and are prepared with the experience, skills, and insight to perform as trustees?
Ideas:
The Board has discussed several ideas to overcome the problems mentioned above. Some of these ideas could be taken and combined, and some discarded. Other ideas coming from the call for feedback could be considered as well. The ideas are:
Ranked voting system.
Complete the move to a single transferable vote system, already used to appoint affiliate-selected seats, which is designed to best capture voters’ preferences.
Quotas.
Explore the possibility of introducing quotas to ensure certain types of diversity in the Board (details about these quotas to be discussed in this call for feedback).
Call for types of skills and experiences.
When the Board makes a new call for candidates, they would specify types of skills and experiences especially sought.
Vetting of candidates.
Potential candidates would be assessed using the Trustee Evaluation Form and would be confirmed or not as eligible candidates.
Board-delegated selection committee.
The community would nominate candidates that this committee would assess and rank using the Trustee Evaluation Form. This committee would have community elected members and Board appointed members.
Community-elected selection committee.
The community would directly elect the committee members. The committee would assess and rank candidates using the Trustee Evaluation Form.
Election of confirmed candidates.
The community would vote for community nominated candidates that have been assessed and ranked using the Trustee Evaluation Form. The Board would appoint the most voted candidates.
Direct appointment of confirmed candidates.
After the selection committee produces a ranked list of community nominated candidates, the Board would appoint the top-ranked candidates directly.
Call for feedback:
The
call for feedback
runs from February 1 until the end of March 14. We are looking for a broad representation of opinions. We are interested in the reasoning and the feelings behind your opinions. In a conversation like this one, details are important. We want to support good conversations where everyone can share and learn from others. We want to hear from those who understand Wikimedia governance well and are already active in movement conversations. We also want to hear from people who do not usually contribute to discussions. Especially those who are active in their own roles, topics, languages or regions, but usually not in, say, a call for feedback on Meta.
You can participate by joining the
Telegram chat group
, and giving feedback on any of the talk pages on Meta-Wiki. We are welcoming the organisation of conversations in any language and in any channel. If you want us to organize a conversation or a meeting for your wiki project or your affiliate, please write to me. I will also reach out to communities and affiliates to soon have focused group discussions.
An
office hour
is also happening
tomorrow at 12 pm (UTC)
to discuss this topic. Access link will be available 15 minutes before the scheduled time (please watch the office hour page for the link, and I will also share on mailing lists). In case you are not able to make it, please don't worry, there will be more discussions and meetings in the next few weeks.

Call for Election Volunteers: 2021 WMF Board elections
सम्पाद्यताम्
Hello all,
Based on an
extensive call for feedback
earlier this year, the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees
announced the plan for the 2021 Board elections
. Apart from improving the technicalities of the process, the Board is also keen on improving active participation from communities in the election process. During the last elections, Voter turnout in prior elections was about 10% globally. It was better in communities with volunteer election support. Some of those communities reached over 20% voter turnout. We know we can get more voters to help assess and promote the best candidates, but to do that, we need your help.
We are looking for volunteers to serve as Election Volunteers. Election Volunteers should have a good understanding of their communities. The facilitation team sees Election Volunteers as doing the following:
Promote the election and related calls to action in community channels.
With the support from facilitators, organize discussions about the election in their communities.
Translate “a few” messages for their communities
Check out more details about Election Volunteers
and add your name next to the community you will support
in this table
. We aim to have at least one Election Volunteer, even better if there are two or more sharing the work. If you have any queries, please ping me under this message or
email me

Candidates from South Asia for 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board Elections
सम्पाद्यताम्
Dear Wikimedians,
As you may be aware, the Wikimedia Foundation has started
elections for community seats
on the Board of Trustees. While previously there were three community seats on the Board, with the expansion of the Board to sixteen seats last year, community seats have been increased to eight, four of which are up for election this year.
In the last fifteen years of the Board's history, there were only a few candidates from the South Asian region who participated in the elections, and hardly anyone from the community had a chance to serve on the Board. While there are several reasons for this, this time, the Board and WMF are very keen on encouraging and providing support to potential candidates from historically underrepresented regions. This is a good chance to change the historical problem of representation from the South Asian region in high-level governance structures.
Ten days after the call for candidates began, there aren't any
candidates from South Asia
yet, there are still 10 days left! I would like to ask community members to encourage other community members, whom you think would be potential candidates for the Board. While the final decision is completely up to the person, it can be helpful to make sure that they are aware of the election and the call for candidates.
Let me know if you need any information or support.
Thank you,

सम्पाद्यताम्
Hello all,
We are reaching out to you today regarding the
2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election has come to an end
सम्पाद्यताम्
Thank you for participating in the
2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election
! Voting closed August 31 at 23:59. The official data, including the four most voted candidates, will be announced as soon as the
Elections Committee
completes their review of the ballots. The official announcement of the new trustees appointed will happen later, once the selected candidates have been confirmed by the Board.
6,946 community members from 216 wiki projects have voted. This makes 10.2% global participation, 1.1% higher than in the last Board elections. In 2017, 5167 people from 202 wiki projects cast their vote. A full analysis is planned to be published in a few days when the confirmed results are announced. In the meantime, you can check the
data produced during the election
Diversity was an important goal with these elections. Messages about the Board election were translated into 61 languages. This outreach worked well. There were 70 communities with eligible voters voting in this election for the first time. With your help, next year’s Board of Trustees election will be even better.

The 2022 Community Wishlist Survey will happen in January
सम्पाद्यताम्
Hello everyone,
We hope all of you are as well and safe as possible during these trying times! We wanted to share some news about a change to the Community Wishlist Survey 2022. We would like to hear your opinions as well.
Summary:
We will be running the
Community Wishlist Survey
2022 in January 2022. We need more time to work on the 2021 wishes. We also need time to prepare some changes to the Wishlist 2022. In the meantime, you can use a
dedicated sandbox to leave early ideas for the 2022 wishes
Proposing and wish-fulfillment will happen during the same year
सम्पाद्यताम्
In the past, the
Community Tech
team has run the Community Wishlist Survey for the following year in November of the prior year. For example, we ran the
Wishlist for 2021
in November 2020. That worked well a few years ago. At that time, we used to start working on the Wishlist soon after the results of the voting were published.
However, in 2021, there was a delay between the voting and the time when we could start working on the new wishes. Until July 2021, we were working on wishes from the
Wishlist for 2020
We hope having the Wishlist 2022 in January 2022 will be more intuitive. This will also give us time to fulfill more wishes from the 2021 Wishlist.
Encouraging wider participation from historically excluded communities
सम्पाद्यताम्
We are thinking how to make the Wishlist easier to participate in. We want to support more translations, and encourage under-resourced communities to be more active. We would like to have some time to make these changes.
A new space to talk to us about priorities and wishes not granted yet
सम्पाद्यताम्
We will have gone 365 days without a Wishlist. We encourage you to approach us. We hope to hear from you in the
talk page
, but we also hope to see you at our bi-monthly Talk to Us meetings! These will be hosted at two different times friendly to time zones around the globe.
We will begin our first meeting
September 15th at 23:00 UTC
. More details about the agenda and format coming soon!
Brainstorm and draft proposals before the proposal phase
सम्पाद्यताम्
If you have early ideas for wishes, you can use the
new Community Wishlist Survey sandbox
. This way, you will not forget about these before January 2022. You will be able to come back and refine your ideas. Remember, edits in the sandbox don't count as wishes!

सम्पाद्यताम्
What should we do to improve the Wishlist pages?

Results of 2021 Wikimedia Foundation elections
सम्पाद्यताम्
Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2021 Board election. The Elections Committee has reviewed the votes of the 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election, organized to select four new trustees. A record 6,873 people from across 214 projects cast their valid votes. The following four candidates received the most support:
Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight
Victoria Doronina
Dariusz Jemielniak
Lorenzo Losa
While these candidates have been ranked through the community vote, they are not yet appointed to the Board of Trustees. They still need to pass a successful background check and meet the qualifications outlined in the Bylaws. The Board has set a tentative date to appoint new trustees at the end of this month.

Universal Code of Conduct EDGR conversation hour for South Asia
सम्पाद्यताम्
Dear Wikimedians,
As you may already know, the
Universal Code of Conduct
(UCoC) provides a baseline of behaviour for collaboration on Wikimedia projects worldwide. Communities may add to this to develop policies that take account of local and cultural context while maintaining the criteria listed here as a minimum standard. The Wikimedia Foundation Board has ratified the policy in December 2020.
The
current round of conversations
is around how the Universal Code of Conduct should be enforced across different Wikimedia platforms and spaces. This will include training of community members to address harassment, development of technical tools to report harassment, and different levels of handling UCoC violations, among other key areas.
The conversation hour is an opportunity for community members from South Asia to discuss and provide their feedback, which will be passed on to the drafting committee. The details of the conversation hour are as follows:
Date: 16 September
Time: Bangladesh: 5:30 pm to 7 pm, India & Sri Lanka: 5 pm to 6:30 pm, Nepal: 5:15 pm to 5:45 pm

The Call for Feedback: Board of Trustees elections is now open and will close on 7 February 2022.
With this Call for Feedback, the Movement Strategy and Governance team is taking a different approach. This approach incorporates community feedback from 2021. Instead of leading with proposals, the Call is framed around key questions from the Board of Trustees. The key questions came from the feedback about the 2021 Board of Trustees election. The intention is to inspire collective conversation and collaborative proposal development about these key questions.
There are two confirmed questions that will be asked during this Call for Feedback:
What is the best way to ensure more diverse representation among elected candidates?
The Board of Trustees noted the importance of selecting candidates who represent the full diversity of the Wikimedia movement. The current processes have favored volunteers from North America and Europe.
What are the expectations for the candidates during the election?
Board candidates have traditionally completed applications and answered community questions. How can an election provide appropriate insight into candidates while also appreciating candidates’ status as volunteers?
There is one additional question that may be presented during the Call about selection processes. This question is still under discussion, but the Board wanted to give insight into the confirmed questions as soon as possible. Hopefully if an additional question is going to be asked, it will be ready during the first week of the Call for Feedback.
Join the conversation.

The Movement Strategy and Governance team is looking for community members to serve as election volunteers in the upcoming Board of Trustees election.
The idea of the Election Volunteer Program came up during the 2021 Wikimedia Board of Trustees Election. This program turned out to be successful. With the help of Election Volunteers we were able to increase outreach and participation in the election by 1,753 voters over 2017. Overall turnout was 10.13%, 1.1 percentage points more, and 214 wikis were represented in the election.
There were a total of 74 wikis that did not participate in 2017 that produced voters in the 2021 election. Can you help increase the participation even more?
Election volunteers will help in the following areas:
Translate short messages and announce the ongoing election process in community channels
Optional: Monitor community channels for community comments and questions
Volunteers should:
Maintain the friendly space policy during conversations and events
Present the guidelines and voting information to the community in a neutral manner

कृपया अपनी भाषा में अनुवादित करने में सहायता करें
Hi all,
Community members are invited to
propose statements to use in the Election Compass
for the
2022 Board of Trustees election.
An Election Compass is a tool to help voters select the candidates that best align with their beliefs and views. The community members will propose statements for the candidates to answer using a Lickert scale (agree/neutral/disagree). The candidates’ answers to the statements will be loaded into the Election Compass tool. Voters will use the tool by entering in their answer to the statements (agree/neutral/disagree). The results will show the candidates that best align with the voter’s beliefs and views.
Here is the timeline for the Election Compass:
July 8 - 20: Community members propose statements for the Election Compass
July 21 - 22: Elections Committee reviews statements for clarity and removes off-topic statements
July 23 - August 1: Volunteers vote on the statements
August 2 - 4: Elections Committee selects the top 15 statements
August 5 - 12: candidates align themselves with the statements
August 15: The Election Compass opens for voters to use to help guide their voting decision
The Elections Committee will select the top 15 statements at the beginning of August. The Elections Committee will oversee the process, supported by the Movement Strategy and Governance (MSG) team. MSG will check that the questions are clear, there are no duplicates, no typos, and so on.
Regards,
Movement Strategy & Governance

The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks?
सम्पाद्यताम्
The slides for our presentation at Wikimania 2022
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.

Vector legacy (current default)

About the skin
सम्पाद्यताम्
[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?
सम्पाद्यताम्
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
सम्पाद्यताम्
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.
Request for more time to discuss the change

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.

The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks?
सम्पाद्यताम्
Read this in your language
कृपया अपनी भाषा में अनुवादित करने में सहायता करें
• 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.
वैश्विक वरीयताएँ
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.

About the skin
सम्पाद्यताम्
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.

सभी को नमस्कार,
इस वर्ष, विकिमीडिया फाउंडेशन बोर्ड के न्यासियों में से 4 (चार) समुदाय और एफिलिएट-चयनित न्यासियों का कार्यकाल समाप्त हो जाएगा [1]। बोर्ड इस वर्ष की चयन प्रक्रिया में भाग लेने और उन सीटों को भरने हेतु मतदान करने के लिए पूरे आंदोलन को आमंत्रित करता है।
चुनाव समिति
फाउंडेशन के कर्मचारियों (स्टाफ) [2] के सहयोग से इस प्रक्रिया की निगरानी करेगी। बोर्ड गवर्नेंस कमेटी ने उन ट्रस्टियों से एक बोर्ड चयन कार्य समूह बनाया, जो 2024 में उम्मीदवार नहीं हो सकते समुदाय - और एफिलिएट-चयनित ट्रस्टी चयन प्रक्रिया में डेरियस जेमीलनियाक, नतालिया टिम्किव, एसरा अल शाफेई, कैथी कोलिन्स और शनि इवेनस्टीन सिगलोव सम्मिलित हैं। [3] समूह को 2024 ट्रस्टी चयन प्रक्रिया के लिए बोर्ड की निगरानी प्रदान करने और बोर्ड को सूचित रखने का कार्य सौंपा गया है। चुनाव समिति, बोर्ड और कर्मचारियों की भूमिकाओं पर अधिक विवरण यहाँ उपलब्ध हैं [4]।
प्रमुख नियोजित तिथियाँ हैं:
मई 2024: उम्मीदवारों और प्रश्नों के लिए आव्हान
जून 2024: एफिलिएट ने 12 उम्मीदवारों को शॉर्टलिस्ट करने के लिए मतदान किया (यदि 15 या उससे कम उम्मीदवार आवेदन करते हैं तो कोई शॉर्टलिस्टिंग नहीं) [5]
जून-अगस्त 2024: अभियान अवधि
अगस्त के अंत/सितंबर 2024 की शुरुआत: दो सप्ताह की सामुदायिक मतदान अवधि

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:

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

We will take the arguments from the Wikimedia communities into account, and we want to consult with the different communities and hear arguments that will help us with the decision.

चुनाव समिति फाउंडेशन स्टाफ़ के सहयोग से इस प्रक्रिया की देखरेख करेगी [2]। गवर्नेंस कमेटी, जो २०२५ समुदाय-और-एफिलिएट-चयनित ट्रस्टी चयन की प्रक्रिया (राजू नारिसेटी, शनि इवेनस्टीन सिगलोव, लोरेंजो लोसा, कैथी कोलिन्स, विक्टोरिया डोरोनिना और एसरा अल शफी) में उम्मीदवार नहीं हैं, से बनी है [3], इन्हें २०२५ की ट्रस्टी चयन प्रक्रिया के लिए बोर्ड की निगरानी प्रदान करने और बोर्ड को सूचित रखने का काम सौंपा गया है। चुनाव समिति, बोर्ड और कर्मचारियों की भूमिकाओं के बारे में अधिक जानकारी यहाँ है [4]।
यहाँ प्रमुख नियोजित तिथियाँ दी गई हैं:
२२ मई – ५ जून: घोषणा (यह संचार) और प्रश्न पूछने का समय [6]
१७ जून – १ जुलाई, २०२५: उम्मीदवारों के लिए आमंत्रण
जुलाई २०२५: यदि आवश्यक हो, तो १० या अधिक आवेदन करने पर सहयोगी उम्मीदवारों को शॉर्टलिस्ट हेतु वोट करेंगे [5]
अगस्त २०२५: अभियान अवधि
अगस्त-सितंबर २०२५: दो सप्ताह की सामुदायिक मतदान अवधि
अक्टूबर – नवंबर २०२५: चयनित उम्मीदवारों की पृष्ठभूमि की जाँच
दिसंबर २०२५ में बोर्ड की बैठक: नए ट्रस्टी नियुक्त किए जाएँगे

Sister Projects Task Force reviews Wikispore and Wikinews
सम्पाद्यताम्
Dear Wikimedia Community,
The
Community Affairs Committee (CAC)
of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees assigned
the Sister Projects Task Force (SPTF)
to update and implement a procedure for assessing the lifecycle of Sister Projects – wiki
projects supported by Wikimedia Foundation (WMF)
A vision of relevant, accessible, and impactful free knowledge has always guided the Wikimedia Movement. As the ecosystem of Wikimedia projects continues to evolve, it is crucial that we periodically review existing projects to ensure they still align with our goals and community capacity.
Despite their noble intent, some projects may no longer effectively serve their original purpose.
Reviewing such projects is not about giving up – it's about responsible stewardship of shared resources
. Volunteer time, staff support, infrastructure, and community attention are finite, and the non-technical costs tend to grow significantly as our ecosystem has entered a different age of the internet than the one we were founded in. Supporting inactive projects or projects that didn't meet our ambitions can unintentionally divert these resources from areas with more potential impact.
Moreover, maintaining projects that no longer reflect the quality and reliability of the Wikimedia name stands for, involves a reputational risk. An abandoned or less reliable project affects trust in the Wikimedia movement.
Lastly,
failing to sunset or reimagine projects that are no longer working can make it much harder to start new ones
. When the community feels bound to every past decision – no matter how outdated – we risk stagnation. A healthy ecosystem must allow for evolution, adaptation, and, when necessary, letting go. If we create the expectation that every project must exist indefinitely, we limit our ability to experiment and innovate.
Because of this, SPTF reviewed two requests concerning the lifecycle of the Sister Projects to work through and demonstrate the review process. We chose Wikispore as a case study for a possible new Sister Project opening and Wikinews as a case study for a review of an existing project. Preliminary findings were discussed with the CAC, and a community consultation on both proposals was recommended.
Wikispore
सम्पाद्यताम्
The
application to consider Wikispore
was submitted in 2019. SPTF decided to review this request in more depth because rather than being concentrated on a specific topic, as most of the proposals for the new Sister Projects are, Wikispore has the potential to nurture multiple start-up Sister Projects.
After careful consideration, the SPTF has decided
not to recommend
Wikispore as a Wikimedia Sister Project. Considering the current activity level, the current arrangement allows
better flexibility
and experimentation while WMF provides core infrastructural support.
We acknowledge the initiative's potential and seek community input on what would constitute a sufficient level of activity and engagement to reconsider its status in the future.
As part of the process, we shared the decision with the Wikispore community and invited one of its leaders, Pharos, to an SPTF meeting.
Currently, we especially invite feedback on measurable criteria indicating the project's readiness, such as contributor numbers, content volume, and sustained community support. This would clarify the criteria sufficient for opening a new Sister Project, including possible future Wikispore re-application. However, the numbers will always be a guide because any number can be gamed.
Wikinews
सम्पाद्यताम्
We chose to review Wikinews among existing Sister Projects because it is the one for which we have observed the highest level of concern in multiple ways.
Since the SPTF was convened in 2023, its members have asked for the community's opinions during conferences and community calls about Sister Projects that did not fulfil their promise in the Wikimedia movement.
[1]
[2]
[3]
Wikinews was the leading candidate for an evaluation because people from multiple language communities proposed it. Additionally, by most measures, it is the least active Sister Project, with the greatest drop in activity over the years.
While the Language Committee routinely opens and closes language versions of the Sister Projects in small languages, there has never been a valid proposal to close Wikipedia in major languages or any project in English. This is not true for Wikinews, where there was a proposal to close English Wikinews, which gained some traction but did not result in any action
[4]
[5], see section 5
as well as a draft proposal to close all languages of Wikinews
[6]
Initial metrics
compiled by WMF staff also support the community's concerns about Wikinews.
Based on this report, SPTF recommends a community reevaluation of Wikinews. We conclude that its current structure and activity levels are the lowest among the existing sister projects. SPTF also recommends pausing the opening of new language editions while the consultation runs.
SPTF brings this analysis to a discussion and welcomes discussions of alternative outcomes, including potential restructuring efforts or integration with other Wikimedia initiatives.
Options
mentioned so far (which might be applied to just low-activity languages or all languages) include but are not limited to:
Restructure how Wikinews works and is linked to other current events efforts on the projects,
Merge the content of Wikinews into the relevant language Wikipedias, possibly in a new namespace,
Merge content into compatibly licensed external projects,
Archive Wikinews projects.
Your insights and perspectives are invaluable in shaping the future of these projects. We encourage all interested community members to share their thoughts on the relevant discussion pages or through other designated feedback channels.
Feedback and next steps
सम्पाद्यताम्
We'd be grateful if you want to take part in a conversation on the future of these projects and the review process. We are setting up two different project pages:
Public consultation about Wikispore
and
Public consultation about Wikinews
. Please participate between 27 June 2025 and 27 July 2025, after which we will summarize the discussion to move forward. You can write in your own language.
I will also host a community conversation 16th July Wednesday 11.00 UTC and 17th July Thursday 17.00 UTC (call links to follow shortly) and will be around at Wikimania for more discussions.

अस्थायी खाते जल्द रोलआउट कर दिए जाएँगे
सम्पाद्यताम्
नमस्ते, हम विकिमीडिया संस्थान के
उत्पाद सुरक्षा एवं सत्यनिष्ठा
दल हैं। हम यह घोषित करना चाहेंगे कि
हम 1 सितंबर के हफ्ते इस विकि पर
अस्थायी खाते
सक्षम करने की योजना रखते हैं
अस्थायी खाते 30 विकियों पर सफलतापूर्वक चालू कर दिए गए हैं, जिनमें जर्मन, जापानी, और फ़्रांसीसी जैसे कुछ बड़े विकियाँ शामिल हैं। जो बदलाव ये लाएँगे वह लॉग-आउट किए हुए सम्पादकों के लिए विशेषतः महत्वपूर्ण होगा, जिन्हें सुरक्षित रखने के लिए यह सुविधा डिज़ाइन की गई है। मगर यह उपदेशकों, परीक्षकों, और प्रबंधकों — यानी विकियों को सुरक्षित और सटीक रखने के लिए सम्पादन पूर्ववत करने वाले, सदस्यों को अवरोधित करने वाले, या अन्यथा लॉग-आउट किए हुए सम्पादकों से इंटरैक्ट करने वाले सभी लोगों — के भी प्रसंग में है।
हम अस्थायी खाते क्यों बना रहे हैं
हमारे विकियाँ लॉग-आउट किए हुए सम्पादकों द्वारा सम्पादित किए जाने के लिए डिफ़ॉल्ट से सुरक्षित होने चाहिए। अस्थायी खातों से सदस्य खाता बनाए बिना और अपने सम्पादनों को सार्वजनिक रूप से अपने IP पते से जोड़े बिना विकियों को सम्पादित करना जारी रख सकते हैं। हमारा मानना है कि यह लॉग-आउट किए हुए सम्पादकों के सर्वोत्तम हित में है, जो विकियों पर मूल्यवान योगदान करते हैं और जो बाद में खाते बनाकर सम्पादकों, प्रबंधकों और दूसरी भूमिकाओं के हमारे समुदाय की वृद्धि भी कर सकते हैं। हालाँकि विकियाँ लॉग-आउट किए हुए सम्पादकों को चेतावनियाँ देते हैं कि उनके IP पते उनके सम्पादन के साथ संबद्ध किए जाएँगे, बहुत-से लोगों को यह पता न भी हो सकता है कि IP पता क्या होता है, या फिर यह कि इसका उपयोग ऐसे तरीकों से उन्हें उनके बारे में दूसरी जानकारी से जोड़ने के लिए किया जा सकता है जिनकी उन्होंने अपेक्षा न की हुई हो सकती है।
साथ ही, हमारे मॉडरेशन के सॉफ़्टवेयर और उपकरण सदस्यों और गतिविधियों के तरीकों की पहचान करने के लिए नेटवर्क ओरिजिन (IP पतों) पर कुछ ज़्यादा ही निर्भर हैं, खासकर कि जब IP पते खुद पहचानकर्ताओं के रूप में कम स्थिर होते जा रहे हैं। अस्थायी खातों की मदद से लॉग-आउट किए हुए सम्पादकों से अधिक यथार्थ इंटरैक्शन संभव होता है, जिसमें शामिल होते हैं अधिक यथार्थ अवरोध, और इनसे यह सीमित किया जा सकता है कि हम कितनी बार बुरी नीयत वाले सदस्यों के IP पतों का उपयोग करने वाले अच्छी नीयत वाले सदस्यों को अनजाने में अवरोधित कर देते हैं।
अस्थायी खाते कैसे काम करते हैं
जब भी कोई लॉग-इन किया हुआ सदस्य इस विकि पर कोई सम्पादन प्रकाशित करेगा, उस सदस्य के ब्राउज़र में एक कुकी सेट कर दी जाएगी, और इस कुकी के साथ संबद्ध एक अस्थायी खाता अपने आप बना दिया जाएगा। इस खाते का नाम इस पैटर्न में होगा:
~2025-12345-67
(एक टिल्ड, वर्तमान वर्ष, एक संख्या)। हाल में हुए बदलावों या फिर पृष्ठ इतिहास जैसे पृष्ठों पर यह नाम दिखाया जाएगा। कुकी अपने निर्माण के 90 दिन बाद समाप्त हो जाएगी। जब तक यह मौजूद हो, उस डिवाइस से किए गए सभी सम्पादन इस अस्थायी खाते से जोड़े जाएँगे। IP पता बदलने पर भी खाता एक ही रहेगा, जब तक सदस्य अपनी कुकियाँ साफ न करे या फिर किसी दूसरे ब्राउज़र का उपयोग न करे। हर सम्पादन के समय उपयुक्त IP पते की एक रिकॉर्ड सम्पादन के बाद 90 दिन तक रखी जाएगी। मगर सिर्फ कुछ ही लॉग-इन किए हुए सदस्य उसे देख पाएँगे।
सदस्यों के अलग-अलग समूहों के लिए इसका क्या मतलब होगा?
लॉग-आउट किए हुए सम्पादकों के लिए
यह गोपनीयता को बढ़ाएगा: वर्तमान में अगर आप सम्पादन करने के लिए एक पंजीकृत खाते का उपयोग नहीं करते हैं तो हर कोई आपके किए सम्पादनों का IP पता देख पाएगा, 90 दिन के बाद भी। अब इस विकि पर यह संभव नहीं होगा।
अगर आप पिछले 90 दिनों में अलग-अलग जगहों से सम्पादित करने के लिए एक अस्थायी खाते का उपयोग करते हैं तो उन सभी जगहों से सम्पादन का इतिहास और IP पते एक साथ एक ही अस्थायी खाते के लिए रिकॉर्ड किए जाएँगे।
प्रासंगिक आवश्यकताओं
को पूरा करने वाले सदस्य यह डेटा देख पाएँगे। अगर इससे आपको व्यक्तिगत सुरक्षा का कोई प्रश्न आता है तो कृपया सलाह के लिए talktohumanrights
फलकम्:@wikimedia
.org से संपर्क करें।
लॉग-आउट किए हुए सम्पादकों से इंटरैक्ट करने वाले समुदाय के सदस्यों के लिए
एक अस्थायी खाता विशिष्ट रूप से एक डिवाइस से जुड़ा हुआ होता है। इसकी तुलना में IP पते कई अलग-अलग डिवाइसों और लोगों के बीच साझा किए जा सकते हैं (उदाहरणस्वरूप ऐसा हो सकता है कि विद्यालयों या फिर कार्यालयों में अलग-अलग लोगों का एक ही IP पता हो)।
वर्तमान परिस्थिति की तुलना में यह मान लेना जायज़ होगा कि किसी अस्थायी खाते का वार्ता पृष्ठ किसी एक ही व्यक्ति का है, और वहाँ छोड़े गए संदेश उसी के द्वारा पढ़े जाएँगे। जैसा कि आप स्क्रीनशॉट में देख सकते हैं, अस्थायी खातों के सदस्यों को अधिसूचनाएँ प्राप्त होंगी। उन्हें अपने सम्पादनों के लिए धन्यवाद देना, उन्हें चर्चाओं में पिंग करना, और उन्हें समुदाय में अधिक निकटता से शामिल होने के लिए आमंत्रित करना भी संभव होगा।
विकि को मॉडरेट और अनुरक्षित करने के लिए IP पते की डेटा का उपयोग करने वाले सदस्यों के लिए
परीक्षकों के लिए
जो लगातार दुरुपयोग करने वालों को ट्रैक करते हैं, नीतियों के उल्लंघनों की जाँच-पड़ताल करते हैं, आदि:
आवश्यकताओं को पूरा करने
वाले सदस्य अस्थायी सदस्यों के IP पते देख पाएँगे और किसी विशिष्ट IP पते अथवा रेंज से अस्थायी खातों द्वारा किए गए सभी योगदान देख पाएँगे (
Special:IPContributions
)। उनके पास
IP की जानकारी
के उपकरण के माध्यम से IP पतों के बारे में उपयोगी जानकारी तक पहुँच भी होगी। सॉफ़्टवेयर के कई दूसरे टुकड़े अस्थायी खातों के साथ काम करने के लिए बना या फिर संशोधित किए गए हैं, जैसे दुरुपयोग फ़िल्टर, ग्लोबल अवरोध, ग्लोबल सदस्य योगदान, आदि। (अपने उपकरणों के कोड को अपडेट कैसे करें, इस बारे में स्वयंसेवक विकासकों के लिए उपयोगी जानकारी के लिए संदेश का अंतिम हिस्सा देखें।)
लॉग-आउट किए हुए सम्पादकों को अवरोधित करने वाले प्रबंधकों के लिए
कई दुरुपयोग करने वाले सदस्यों को अवरोधित करने के लिए बस उनके अस्थायी खातों को अवरोधित कर देना काफी होगा।
स्वतः अवरोध
का विकल्प चुनने पर अवरोधित व्यक्ति जल्दी से नए अस्थायी खाते नहीं बना पाएगा।
IP पते या IP रेंज को अवरोधित करना फिर भी संभव होगा।
अस्थायी खाते इसकी तैनाती से पहले किए गए सम्पादनों पर पूर्ववर्ती रूप से लागू नहीं किए जाएँगे। Special:Contributions पर आप IP सदस्य के मौजूदा योगदान देख पाएँगे, मगर उस IP पते पर अस्थायी खातों द्वारा किए गए नए योगदान नहीं। इसके लिए आपको इसकी जगह Special:IPContributions का उपयोग करना चाहिए।
आपसे हमारे निवेदन, और अगले चरण
अगर आपको IP पतों का उपयोग करने वाले या फिर लॉग-आउट किए हुए सदस्यों को उपलब्ध कोई भी उपकरण, बॉट, गैजेट आदि पता हो तो आप
testwiki
अथवा
test2wiki
पर जाँच सकते हैं कि वे काम करते हैं कि नहीं। अगर आप एक स्वयंसेवक विकासक हैं तो
विकासकों के लिए हमारा प्रलेख
पढ़ें, और विशेषतः
आपके कोड को किस प्रकार अपडेट करना आवश्यक हो सकता है
, इस बारे में अनुभाग।
अगर आप अस्थायी खाते का अनुभव परीक्षित करना चाहते हैं, मान लें बस देखने के लिए कि इससे कैसे महसूस होता है, तो आप testwiki या फिर test2wiki पर जाकर लॉग-इन किए बिना सम्पादित कर सकते हैं।
हम सभी ऐसी समस्याओं के बारे में बताएँ जिनसे निपटा जाना चाहिए। हम मदद करने की कोशिश करेंगे, और अगर हम मदद नहीं कर पाते हैं तो हम उपलब्ध विकल्पों पर विचार करेंगे।
