== Request for feedback on the Translation Notifications extension ==
== [[QW2021|Queering Wikipedia 2021 User Group Working Days]]: May 14-16 ==
[[File:Quick logo for QW (cropped).jpg|x200px|right]]
[[File:Wikimedia LGBT+ logo.svg|x190px|right]]
The [[Wikimedia LGBT+/Portal|Wikimedia LGBTQ+ User Group]] is holding online working days in May. If you’re an active Wikimedian, editing on LGBTQ+ issues or if you identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community, come help us set goals, develop our organisation and structures, consider how to respond to issues faced by Queer editors, and plan for the next 12 months.


Hello,
We will be meeting online for 3 half-days, 14–16 May at 1400–1730 UTC. While our working language is English, we are looking to accommodate users who would prefer to participate in other languages, including translation facilities.


I’m Abijeet Patro. I’m a software developer in the Language team at the Foundation. I work on the [[mw:Extension:TranslationNotifications|Translation Notifications extension]]. I’m reaching out to you because you’ve previously used the extension, and we’re looking to gather feedback on how the extension can be made more reliable.
'''More information, and registration details, at <big>[[QW2021]]</big>.'''--[[Wikimedia LGBT+/Portal|Wikimedia LGBT+ User Group]] 15:48, 24 April 2021 (UTC)


You can leave your feedback on a thread that we’ve started on the [[metawiki:Meta_talk:Babylon#Request_for_feedback_on_the_Translation_Notifications_extension|Babylon talk page]].

<div lang="en" class="mw-content-ltr">The InternetArchiveBot team has come up with a new header for its documentation and user pages designed to make important links as easy to find as possible. We use this header on the bot's global user page, and we have it set up to show the labels in your interface language, meaning that the labels will appear in Russian on Russian Wikipedia (unless you override the interface language).

In order for this feature to work, we need translations of those labels. There are only six labels:
* About the Bot
* Report Problem
* Contact Us
* Documentation
* Configure
* Disable Bot

If you know how to say those things in another language, you can help! And your work will make it easier for non-English speakers to use InternetArchiveBot.

This page I am requesting translations for is the "report problem" page for InternetArchiveBot, directing the user to different places depending on the kind of problem they are having.

The '''[[Special:MyLanguage/Affiliations Committee|Affiliations Committee]]''' – the committee responsible for guiding volunteers in establishing Wikimedia chapters, thematic organizations, and user groups – is looking for new members!
Hello {{PAGENAME}}!


We are sending you this message as you have signed up as a [[West Bengal Wikimedians/Members/General|general member]] of the [[West Bengal Wikimedians|West Bengal Wikimedians User Group]]. We would like to inform you that the user group has organized its [[West Bengal Wikimedians/Annual General Meeting/2024|2024 Annual General Meeting]] of Representative Members yesterday at the [[:en:Birla Industrial & Technological Museum|Birla Industrial & Technological Museum]], Kolkata. In this meeting, we have adopted [[West Bengal Wikimedians/Bylaws|revised bylaws]] based on the feedback and suggestions coming from our members ([https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=West_Bengal_Wikimedians%2FBylaws&diff=26035973&oldid=24894778 see changes]) and selected 10 new Representative Members based on the objective criteria set in the bylaws with regards to their recent or overall online and offline contributions. A new Representative Committee has also been formed while replacing 3 out of 5 members, who have completed their full term tenure for this responsibility. The participants have also shared learning from the projects taken from previous year and shared plans about new projects which they are willing to take during this year on behalf of the user group. We are also introducing a mentorship program from this year, where willing general members can work together with our program leads in user group programs and learn from each other. So, stay tuned for more excitements!
The main role of the AffCom is to guide groups of volunteers that are interested in forming Wikimedia affiliates. We review applications from new groups, answer questions and provide advice about the different Wikimedia affiliation models and processes, review affiliate bylaws for compliance with requirements and best practices, and update the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees as well as advise them on issues connected to chapters, thematic organizations and Wikimedia user groups.


Regards,<br>
The committee consists of five to fifteen members, selected at least once every year, to serve two-year terms.

== Sub-menu on Edu Newsletter (translation) ==
Being a part of the AffCom requires communication with volunteers all over the world, negotiating skills, cultural sensitivity, and the ability to understand legal texts. We look for a mix of different skill sets in our members.


Hello, there,
;Responsibilities
I appreciate very much your push for the Edu newsletter, and I am among the first reading them over here (=


Now, would you kindly advise me how I can translate the sub-menues? They are on [https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?diff=26204435&oldid=26204416&title=Education/News Education/News]#Newsroom (?), and I am lost where they are located as shown as :

* Submit your article

You know, my largest dream is that your newsletter will reach those college students at [[:w:Waseda Univeirsity]] in Tokyo, who will someday post on Edu Newsletter.


For your info, the group leader, an alumnae, Eugene Ormandy is active on Diff, updating partnership with Malay and Indonesian students since last Wikimania in Singapore. Great that jawiki will be linked to neighboring language editions. Cheers, -- [[User:Omotecho|Omotecho]] ([[User talk:Omotecho|talk]]) 08:15, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

::Is there anything I can assist you in this purpose? Adding translate tags, or maybe:

;;;Required
* Fluency in English
* Availability of up to 5 hours per week, and the time to participate in a monthly one and two-hour voice/video meetings.

We are pleased to inform you that the user group has submitted its [[West Bengal Wikimedians/Reports/Annual Activities/2023|annual activity report]] for 2023-24. We will be very happy to receive your feedback about our activities from the last year on the [[Talk:West Bengal Wikimedians/Reports/Annual Activities/2023|talk page of the report]].
As a reflection of our commitment to openness, transparency, and bilateral engagement with the Wikimedia community, the 2022 member selection process will include a public review and comment period and a self-assessment survey for candidates to share their skills and their experience. This self-assessment information will help the committee to identify the skill sets relevant and supportive to our affiliate support processes. We invite you to apply for membership to the committee and join us in supporting the affiliates. The data shared in the self-assessment will only be made available to the committee and the relevant staff support. The nomination, candidate Q&A, and endorsements will still take place posted on Meta for public review at [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Affiliations Committee/Candidates/January 2022|January 2022 page]]. Here the global community is welcome to provide comments and feedback about each candidate.


Thanks and regards,<br>
Once the nomination window closes 31 January 2022, the sitting members who are not candidates for re-election in this cycle will deliberate and then vote, taking into account all inputs from the meta page, self-assessment, advisors, Wikimedia Foundation staff and board liaisons, and committee member discussion.

AffCom advisors can engage with the committee in a variety of capacities:
;Consultant
Individuals with extensive movement experience can be engaged as Consultants for specific cases or initiatives by AffCom.
;Trainer
Individuals with specific expertise may be engaged for short-term projects for training AffCom or Affiliates. They might also lead the Capacity Building initiatives for AffCom or affiliates.
;Observer
AffCom can request specific or all advisors to act as an observer in different cases to ensure neutrality & compliance with guidelines.
;AffCom Support
'''Development of Policies:''' While advisors cannot create legally binding policies for the committee, they can help create policies that provide direction and support for the committee.

'''Planning and Implementing Community Relations:''' The advisors are long-term wikimedians & also include influential community leaders who can be effective at spreading the word about initiatives and services.

'''Supporting Subcommittees:''' The advisors can support subcommittees that have assigned tasks in specific areas.

'''Other Tasks:''' Advisors can be engaged to address a specific need. Such engagements are usually short-lived and are disbanded as soon as their specific goals are met.


;Key skills

We look for a healthy mix of different skill sets in our advisors, including the following key skills and experience:

;Selection process

As a reflection of our commitment to openness, transparency, and bilateral engagement with the Wikimedia community, the 2022 advisors selection process will include a public review and comment period. All applications must be posted on Meta between '''January 01 and January 31, 2022''' at [[Affiliations Committee/Advisors/2022]], and the community will be invited to provide comments and feedback about each candidate. At the end of the nomination period, the applications will be voted on by the members of the committee, taking into account comments put forward by the committee's members, advisors, Wikimedia Foundation staff and board liaisons, and the community. A final decision will be made in February 2022, with new advisors expected to begin later that month.

;How to apply

If you are interested in advising the committee, please submit your candidacy on [[Affiliations Committee/Advisors/2022]] between January 01 to January 31, 2022. Your application must include the following information:
# Your full name and Wikimedia username
# A statement describing your relevant experience, skills, and motivation for joining the committee as an advisor.
# The advisor role you would like to serve
# Answers to the following three questions:
## How do you think affiliates work best together to partner on effective projects and initiatives?
## What do you see as the role of affiliates in the Wikimedia movement in the next three years?
## What do you feel you will bring as an advisor to the committee that makes you a uniquely qualified candidate?

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the committee. We are happy to chat or have a phone call with anyone about our work if this helps them decide to apply. Please distribute this call among your networks, and do apply if you are interested!

== Mass messages sent to wrong page ==

[[Wikibooks:sv:User:MediaWiki message delivery]] delivered your messages to the wrong page, in [[Wikibooks:sv:Special:Diff/51293/51327]]. As discussed at the project, we cannot afford mass messages flooding our village pump: activity is low and the project-specific discussion will be drowned. The messages are not particularly useful either, as most contributors read them at projects where they are more active.

We have created a separate page for these messages, as can be seen at [[Distribution list/Global message delivery]]. Is there some other page where this preference should be stated?

Now that I read the diff, I see that you point to a private list of village pumps: [[Special:Permalink/21244129|User:ZI_Jony/MassMessage/Awareness of Education Newsletter/List of Village Pumps]] (with no documentation on its function). Why aren't you using the above list? Isn't there enough instructions given for those who want to use the mass delivery function?

(It would also be useful to have your contact information as a normal signature, not in a small-print footer. The "for more information" link was broken: "spatnaikMall:@wikimedia.org". Why an e-mail address instead of a Wikimedia user page? [[User:SPatnaik (WMF)]]?)

:Honestly, I had checked village pump list on subpage of [[Global message delivery]]. Actually I was forget about the list you provided!

== First SWT bot workshop on "Pywikibot framework" to take place coming Friday, February 25th at 16:00 UTC ==

Hello, Thank you for signing up for the small wiki toolkits workshops. The first workshop on the topic of “Pywikibot framework introduction & installation” is coming up - it will take place on Friday, February 25th at 16:00 UTC.

We will record this workshop and update the workshops page with the link later.

== Notes about preparing a page for translation ==

Hello ZI Jony,

On this month Education newsletter, I have spent some time to improve [[Meta:Internationalization guidelines|internationalization]] of the pages, but you have reverted most of my work through “clean up”s. So we don’t work in opposite directions, I would like to point you some recommendation for [[Mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:Translate/Page translation administration|preparing a page for translation]]:
* Headings should be separated units, so they should be followed by an empty new line.
* <code>Tvar</code> names must be unique inside each unit, but we can reuse the name several times in the same page, as soon as they are in different units.
* Big units should be split into smaller ones; so for big lists we should isolate each item inside its own translation unit.

Note these are not technicals requirements, but these allows to make translation more comfortable.

In this meeting, we have adopted revised bylaws based on the feedback and suggestions coming from our members (see changes) and selected 10 new Representative Members based on the objective criteria set in the bylaws with regards to their recent or overall online and offline contributions. A new Representative Committee has also been formed while replacing 3 out of 5 members, who have completed their full term tenure for this responsibility. The participants have also shared learning from the projects taken from previous year and shared plans about new projects which they are willing to take during this year on behalf of the user group. We are also introducing a mentorship program from this year, where willing general members can work together with our program leads in user group programs and learn from each other. So, stay tuned for more excitements!

Regards,
Bodhisattwa

Sub-menu on Edu Newsletter (translation)[edit]

Hello, there, I appreciate very much your push for the Edu newsletter, and I am among the first reading them over here (=

Now, would you kindly advise me how I can translate the sub-menues? They are on Education/News#Newsroom (?), and I am lost where they are located as shown as :

  • Submit your article
  • Publication Guidelines
  • Archive
  • Subscribe

You know, my largest dream is that your newsletter will reach those college students at w:Waseda Univeirsity in Tokyo, who will someday post on Edu Newsletter.

For your info, the group leader, an alumnae, Eugene Ormandy is active on Diff, updating partnership with Malay and Indonesian students since last Wikimania in Singapore. Great that jawiki will be linked to neighboring language editions. Cheers, -- Omotecho (talk) 08:15, 10 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Omotecho, you are talking about education navigation template, which is located here, if you are interested to translate, please do so there. I'd like to invite you to express your experience Wikipedia in education. Please submit your article here, read how to publish an article here, or you could subscribe education newsletter here, and This Month in Education newsletter will be delivered to your talk page. Regards, ZI Jony (Talk) 10:45, 10 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, your first link lands to Template:Education_Navigation/ja, and before I check en-ja translation progress, I realized the structure you have built, congratulations !^o^!
I have two ideas:
(1) How about we use template:Navbox at page bottom? I think a navbox will be handy to map Education initiative, and search or what theme you will take up, and users will find where to post their accomplishment.
(2) More pages to internationalize.
Is there anything I can assist you in this purpose? Adding translate tags, or maybe:
  • make a subpage for the time being, as I am not sure how many translators are willing to join the effort, or;
  • Do we have an option to apply for WMF Community Grants?
As I am a translator, pages I wish to recommend to ja readers are as follows, or those in the education sphere might find familiar.
Maybe ja users are shy to input, but reading is participation. I wish to have <languages> tags added to:
Not done subpages are treasure trove to see the bright possibilities this initiative cultivate each education sphere:
I'd appreciate very much if you would advise me if this topic be moved to any page else, Cheers, and arigatow, -- Omotecho (talk) 04:53, 12 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Omotecho:, thanks for your idea, we have so many things to update as we recently connected with EduWiki. You're welcome and feel free to improve. Regards, ZI Jony (Talk) 11:37, 12 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, I was thinking, too, that maybe I will sandbox and ask my peers to jump in (= 
Goo luck during the transition, and we are all with you d(^o^)b Omotecho (talk) 11:47, 12 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Translation[edit]

Good day. In future, please split these kind of text when marking pages for translation. Having a huge unit will cause unnecessary mess when only one bullet point is changed. --Min☠︎rax«¦talk¦» 09:40, 19 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Minorax:, your advice well noted. Regards, ZI Jony (Talk) 12:06, 19 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
