Deuxième version du contrat à Wikimedia and Mandrakesoft (2nd draft agreement), plus élaborée. La question DVD/CD n'est pas à la charge de Foundation dans cette version. villy 19:42, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Hi,

I'm sorry to say so, but I'm currently in the process of completely rewriting the Wikinews page as outlined in this mailing list post. I'm afraid the translation will have to be updated after that is finished.--Eloquence 21:54, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Wikinews

Haha, plus vite que la musique, traduction achevée. Mais à relire à fond please, histoire de traquer les incohérences (qui, d'ailleurs ne sont pas toujours de mon fait). J'ai pris UNE grande liberté avec une phrase qui n'avait aucun sens, question posée sur la page de discussion en engliche. Mais là j'ai la tête en vrac, et je peux plus voir cette page en peinture, il faut quelqu'un qui n'a pas baigné dedans, je compte sur toi pour revoir ou faire revoir... Merci pour le petit mot :D.

Wiktionary stats

Hi, thank you for your updating of Wiktionary. Could you make a sum of words on all Wiktionary? I think we need to update details in Wikimedia:Our projects on WMF site too, and the number of total words is required for this purpose. If you update WMF sites Translation requests/WMF/Our projects/En:, you will be very appliciated. --Aphaia 08:45, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Macedonian wiki on start page

Could you add Macedonian wiki on Www.wikipedia.org_template which is mk:, its been a time that it has enough articles to be there. Lincher 22:33, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

That is true, it is on the portal but not on the Template which is now used as a front page to wikipedia. Lincher 14:08, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Www.wikipedia.org_template

Because i don't know who i should ask for that, i ask you. Could you make changes to the front Www.wikipedia.org_template so it reflects the Complete list of language Wikipedias available page. Meaning that both pages have approximately the same number of articles and reflect the same order of wikipedia (1st to 10th). Thank you in advance Lincher 04:27, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Permissions

Hi Yann, i de-sysopped Robin Patterson from sm.wiki. Seems there's some objection from another user. I think is better if we try to understand what's happening. See here. Also take a look at this. Do you think is better to remove his rights also on mi.wiktionary?

Regards, --Snowdog 21:45, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Seems Node is indeed a bit trollish, on the other hand seems to me (judging from his contributions) that Robin has a limited knowledge of that language. I don't understand why he wants to be an admin there. I left him a message anyway, hope this won't start a flame. --Snowdog 23:44, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Slightly active

To be inactive means that nobody ever does changes to the wiki, but wikis that have articles even if it is only 1, might have been created in a not so long future as rendering this wiki inactive that is why these wikipedias are slightly active. Plus, when updating the wikis, it is easier to do the list of slightly active than the inactive one which is updated once a month or so. I think it is better the way it is because if a wiki seems to be active people come to it. Just a little remark to wikis with big numbers that aren't modified anymore like bengali, souldn't they be put to the inactive wikipedias, no, because somebody was once active in it.

Quarto 4 help

Hello Yann,

I could use some help with the next Quart; the founder's letter and some basic reports should be ready this week; it would be lovely if you could help get a french version translated. Anthere and I will both be preoccupied with Wikimania things next week...

Many cheers, +sj | Translate the Quarto |+ 21:48, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

Yann, thank you so much for the table :-) this is really great - I always have to copy and paste some other table and try around to have a finished one ... so it really takes time for me to create me - you helped me a lot. Ciao!!! --Sabine 04:35, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

Wiktionary template

Hi, I left a note on the www.wiktionary.org template a while back after the Ido wiktionary reached 10000 articles asking to put it into the search box; now it's nearing 20000 and still not there. I assume it was overlooked; nobody seems to use the discussion page over there. 211.58.237.50 04:30, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

Multilingual portal

Hi Yann. When you update Www.wikipedia.org template, could you do it by copying across from Www.wikipedia.org template/temp, as that page is generally kept up to date and checked regularly to see which languages are missing or need promoting etc, whereas the protected one is updated a bit at a time when someone notices part of it needs changing. There are also a few other fixes on the temp page, such as the markup conforming to XHTML 1.0 strict. Thanks in advance. Trilobite 20:30, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Il ne faut pas donner un status aux editeurs uniquement parce qu'ils le demandent, mais au moins vérifier si personne ne s'y oppose dans leur communauté. Pour cela, les éditeurs doivent se lister sur une page locale et les stewards doivent attendre qu'il n'y ait pas d'opposition. Merci de respecter cette procédure dans le futur.

Wikizine

Hi, I am w:nl:gebruiker:Walter of the dutch Wikipedia. I am writing you because your are listed as ambassador of your wiki (Wiktionary FR, GU, HI). I have something to say that I think you will find useful and possibly others of your wiki also.

You know it is not easy for the members of a local wiki to be informed about what is going on in the higher levels of the Wikimedia family. This because of the language problem and the high level of fragmentation of places where you can find information.

I am now making a weekly news letter (Wikizine) that attempts to provide the news of the Wikimedia projects. The concept is to list only a very short description of the news an give the relevant url to the subject. I want it to be short, only give the news that is important for all projects. The target audience include the ambassadors. It is for people who are interested in what it going on outside there own wiki. I emphasize on the news that is practical-technical. The information comes form several "news"-pages on several wikis, the mailinglists and IRC. There will be news I can not discover. If you have news found somewhere or from you own wiki please let my know. wikizine AT wikipedia.be

I can only create one version in something that supposed to be English. I count on the readers to inform there local wiki about the news in there own language.

Wikizine is send by use of the mailinglist Announce-l. It is only used for this. So people can subscribe without being swamped by emails like the lists.

http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/announce-l

I hope that you and others of your wiki will subscribe to Wikizine and give feedback. So that Wikizine can become really a source where Wikimedians can find out what is going on. Greetings, w:nl:gebruiker:Walter PS: do not repond here. I will not see it.

Semi-protection

I'll leave this message on Wikipedia as well, but I wanted to make sure you got this. At Wikipedia:Semi-protection policy, a couple users and myself are attempting to gather consensus about a possible change in editing. So as not to keep the community out of the loop, we've been posting to user talk pages, which seems to have worked. If you can add your thoughts to the talk page, it would be greatly appreciated. We've gone over a few issues, ranging from perception of anti-wiki to time limits, and recycling pagemove code, so you might want to check out #Rehashing to get up to speed. Thanks in advance, Mysekurity 21:58, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

kl.wikipedia.org

Hi Angela, there has been some vandalism on the Main Page for kl.wikipedia.org, there is only one sysop there (Danny) and he does not seem to response. Could you lock the main page? It would still be possible to edit the page because it only contains a Template:Main Page. b. regards Quackor 15:08, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

I'm not too keen on protecting it since there are no active admins, and it would be off-putting to anyone who wants to develop this wiki. I've asked Danny to keep an eye on it since he's an admin there. I'll also ask Node-ue to watch it since he tries to monitor the inactive wikis. Angela 09:36, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Protection of the page of Bulgarian user The Engineer

Hello Angela, I saw your explanation on the talk page of user The Engineer in Bulgarian Wiki. Sorry if it is rude but you've used a weasel term in it: "... number of members ...". How big this number is and of which users you've got a complaint. There is the user Emil in a personal conflict with him, and The Engineer is accusing him in being backed by an administrator and a founder of Bulgarian Wiki - Petko (admin ID Потребител:5ko, "pet" means five in Bulgarian). While I cannot accuse user Petko, I can assure you that user Emil is having conflicts not only with The Engineer (even I had to recall my ambassador).

Please make clear statement based on what you went for removal of adminship of The Engineer, and protection of his pages. The Bulgarian Wiki community is too small to waste any editor, and is among those who lost editors instead of getting more onboard. Bulgarian Wiki also is decreasing its pace. Right now I am not asking to reinstate the admin access but protection without clear, verifyable explanation is not good.

Requested check of use of checkuser rights

Angela, Today I was kicked off and banned from the #Wikipedia IRC channel by Kelly Martin. If you want the details of why, I am quite willing to explain, but I don't believe it is central to the point at hand. I have reason to suspect that Kelly Martin may have used her checkuser rights in order to identify what account I was using on IRC #Wikipedia, as no one else was booted off the channel prior to my being booted. I've never identified my IRC nick with my Wikipedia nick prior to this incident. With 200+ users on the channel, such accuracy in booting me seems...suspect. I would like a check to be done to determine if Kelly Martin ran a checkuser request against my en.wikipedia.org ID "Durin". I believe in your role as a steward you are capable of running such a check. Thanks in advance, --Durin 21:22, 5 December 2005 (UTC) (cc: Daniel Mayer, Anthere)

• You may ignore this request. It has been clarified to my satisfaction. --Durin 23:45, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

User wants sysop rights

This user made a request at the English Wikibooks about becoming an Admin on the Maori WB. Someone made the suggestion of forwarding this to a steward, so I thought I'd just let you know (if someone already hasn't). There doesn't seem to be much happening over at mi.WB, so I'm not sure what you can do. --Lord Voldemort 15:15, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Asking on Requests for permissions would be better than asking any steward directly. --Angela 00:08, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

fa.wikisource.org

Hi, I've been trying to set up a Persian (fa) subdomian for Wikisource. I read your response to a similar request for another language and contacted Brion via the online form. I haven't heard back in 2-3 weeks. I also filed a bug report here, no reaction so far. The project satisfies the conditions for a new Wikisource language (more here). I'd appriciate it if you could expediate things, it would be cool if we could start in 2005 (at least in name). Kaveh 14:18, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

Translation of Interface into Bahasa Melayu (Malay Language)

Hi Angela, I have just translated fully the interface for the Malay language Wikipedia. Although the language was started on 12 August 2003, the interface was only partially translated.

I am unable to understand the guidelines given in MediaWiki localization. How do I go about making a patch and then submit? — PM Poon 21:04, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Are you an admin on that wiki? If so, translating using the MediaWiki namespace would be a quicker way of doing this. Do you have a way of getting files from CVS? It's hard to explain how to do this when I don't know what system you're using. Angela 00:08, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

test links regarding Interwiki map

• Hallo Angela! I found the following prefixes for wiki's at Wikicities at Interwiki map:

Wikicities:, CreaturesWiki:, FinalFantasy, MozCom:, WikiFur:

• If bugzilla:04285 – "provide accessibility of Wikipedia's sister projects trough wikipedia: interwiki prefix"

would be implemented one could reach wikicities:furry: (or at least with wikicities:furry:Main Page), wikicities:games: (or at least with wikicities:games:Main Page) and all other Wikicities wiki's. Now these links generate "Bad title's". The only need to add Interwiki's would be to make them shorter. Bests regards Gangleri | Th | T 23:53, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

Please, Mega Troll possibility needs to be looked at here

I am coming to you because there is nowhere else to go with this. I fear a mega troll has been able to so firmly entrench himself within wikinews with meatpuppets and sockpuppets that he has obtained virtual control of the site. Now he is attempting to expand his power into Wiktionary. [2]. He simply uses his authority and extreme time availability to wear down and force contributors who are in his way off the site. He has also managed to drive a wedge between Admins and non-admins (basically forming a club-like clique among admins) to the point where a reasonable Rfda; [3] fails with 6 admins opposing and 9 non-admins supporting the Rfda. Amgine's dedication toward prioritizing group loyalty is manifest with this edit of his; "Your approach to Wikinews, in my opinion, is focused on articles. This is a common approach, but probably not the most valuable. I suggest you reconsider that Wikinews is not about articles, but about developing and maintaining an online community; the articles are secondary. - Amgine / talk 14:53, 23 October 2005 (UTC)". Amgine also uses multiple signatures leading to different sites and one that leads nowhere.

The administrative abuses are historical fact and are listed below and although the "troll" accusation is based on circumstantial evidence; I am also showing it at the bottom. The section below is from [4]

Regarding Amgine's activities as an administrator for en.wikinews, I have checked and double checked the information/links below and find the statements accompanying them to be true. Amgine abuses administrative authority consistently and has done so for at least 6 months. His user page comments even show he has a troll-like connection as an administrator with the project[5] as he openly announces that he has "left the project" while being the most active in terms of conflicts and blockings[6]; acting as a foreman or "boss" rather than in a collaborative fashion.

• Here are the examples of administrative abuse. Amgine has had multiple long lasting disputes with many editors with Neutralizer being the most recent and intense. Amgine has not hesitated to abuse his admin powers by blocking/punishing editors like Neutralizer who disagree with him; even though wikinews guidelines clearly state that an admin should NOT block an editor with whom they are having a dispute (they should,instead, allow a different admin. to apply any necessary blocks to that editor). It now seems that the wikinews contributors can not get rid of Amgine no matter how hard they try; Amgine is able to deflect and explain away his misdeeds in a fashion that puts Shakespeare's "Artful Dodger" to shame. You may expect that he will become increasingly accusatory and employ vicious attack methods to get what he wants. Re Amgine; its a lot easier to get him in power than to get him out of power. Fair Warning !

1. Amgine displayed his arrogance by summarily rejecting the resolution,suggestions of a mediator, Ilya (a wikinews Bureaucrat) after a mediation. "I do not accept your suggestion that I limit my administrative privilege use either to "vandalism or very clear violations of objective policies only, and to explicitly let some other admin deal with Neutralizer" or "submit a self-de-admin request." [7]
2. Dan100's list.[8] of Amgine's "bullying and poor behaviour" (Dan100 is an admin.[9] in good standing at wikinews).
3. Apparent vendetta blocks:

   A shows 4 of the spurious blocks Amgine levied against Neutralizer which were all later rescinded when other admins got involved [10].

   B shows the last block against Neutralizer done after Amgine and he clearly were in conflict

   02:13, 6 November 2005 Amgine blocked "User:Neutralizer" with an expiry time of 6 months

4. Admin abuse; blocking Ed Brown for 1 month [11] 04:27, 11 December 2005 Amgine blocked "User:Edbrown05" with an expiry time of 1 month ; Amgine soon withdrew that block as he claimed a "software problem" had been the cause of the unjustified block. This time selection of 1 month for a long standing good contributor like Edbrown shows an abusive use of blocking
5. talk page blanked and frozen by Amgine ( in the middle of ongoing disputes with this same person) [12] This is especially interesting as he did it just one hour after the talk page was made to prioritize the question of whether Amgine and another admin. are the same person.[13] As you can see below (6); Amgine has no problem accusing others of being sockpuppets but when he stands accused? Hell; just delete the evidence.
6. More Disruption by Amgine; not assuming good faith:

   Amgine accused vonbergm of being a sockpuppet; "I do not have reason to believe you are not a sockpuppet."[14]

   Just a few days ago he accused Edbrown of being a sockpuppet[15]

Additional "Troll" indicators

1. Enigma = Amgine backwards

http://education.yahoo.com/reference/dictionary/entry/enigma •nig•ma (-ngm) KEY NOUN: One that is puzzling, ambiguous, or inexplicable. A perplexing speech or text; a riddle. Anything that arouses curiosity or perplexes because it is unexplained, inexplicable, or secret: conundrum, mystery, perplexity, puzzle, puzzler, riddle. Definition sounds a lot like a definition for "troll" to me; "puzzler,perplexing,conundrum"

2. http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/User:Amgine says “left the project”

Help for Malayalam

Hi Yann,

I don't know if it is the best place to ask this doubt. I am a Bureaucrat with Malayalam Wikipedia. Numbers displayed in Malayalam Wikipedia are not understood by most of the people who use it eventhough it is in Malayalam itself. The sad irony is that no one in Malayalam uses Malayalam digits at present(൦, ൧, ൨, ൩, ൪). They insted use Arabic digits ( 1,2,3...). Hence most of the users need the numbers to be displayed in Arabic or universal digit system (1,2,3,,,,.)

When we use number of articles temp the result displayed cannot be understood by the readers!. I tried to find out from where these digtis come?. Is there any way to change the default settings. I thought you could help me....

Permissions

Hi Yann

I saw you removed my sysop permissions at mo.wikipedia citing a complaint, but I didn't see a link to a complaint. May I request a reference to the complaint against me?

Also, for what it's worth, despite what you may have heard, I was elected by a majority mo:Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Node_ue.

Cheers. --Node ue 19:15, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Yes, Yann, I'm well aware that I can't block users just because they disagree with me. Believe me -- there have been plenty of people on mo.wiki who disagreed with me, and I didn't block them.

This particular user had just registered 2 or 3 days ago, and had been moving dozens and dozens of pages, and replacing their entire content with copy of articles from another Wikipedia.

[16] - uhm, is your name Mark Williamson by any chance ? --KappaXi 02:57, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

He didn't discuss it beforehand. When confronted, he did not stop to discuss it.

AFAICS, you were the one being contacted, and you were the one not replying. --KappaXi 02:57, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

He was also very rude, and the reason I put for blocking him was "repeated personal attacks".

I can see you saying to him "You're improper", two times, you were asked to appologize, instead of doing that, you repeated your insult. I can't help but notice you accusing him of suckpuppetry with continuous harassment on that matter. Unfortunately, attacks (not even mentioning "repeated") on you are nowhere to be seen, would you mind being an ounce more explicit ? --KappaXi 02:57, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Despite such bad behaviour, I only blocked him for a duration of 3 days. I would not block a logged-in user for any longer than that because the issue of blocking on mo.wiki and apperance of impropriety has been discussed before. Also, I value free speech, and prefer to block somebody only for small times as a warning, so that they can still come back and discuss the issue at hand.

Really ? So now the blockings can be done with no replies, no comments, no nothing, just because you think so ? Sounds sort of, you know, undemocratic ? --KappaXi 02:57, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Anittas (guy who voted against my adminship) is not, nor has he ever been, a contributor to mo.wiki. He said a few things on talk pages, and voted there. And his reason for voting against me was xenophobic in addition to incorrect (he voted against me because he thought I was Russian, which I am not). His history on the English Wikipedia is less than exemplary. --Node ue 01:25, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

And since you keep that pretence of being democratically elected, would you mind elucidating us as to what is with this page: [17] and why is Jeorjika and not you, clearly the winner there ? As for Annitas, well, Chris's vote shouldn't count either, he did not make any contributions except the vote. So it's merely Ronline who voted for you (and see the previous link on wikipedia-l, Ronline saying that although he supported it, the whole project is a failure now). So far how many votes, one, democratic elections you say, hardly. Judging by your talk pages on other wikis I'd say your behaviour is intolerable, you've been told many times, wikimedia is not a playground for inventing languages. I particularily like AdiJapan's response to your personal attacks on your en.wiki talk page, read that again. --KappaXi 02:57, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
