Review of initial updates on Wikimedia movement strategy process sửa
Note: Apologies for cross-posting and sending in English. Message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki.
The Wikimedia movement is beginning a movement-wide strategy discussion, a process which will run throughout 2017. For 15 years, Wikimedians have worked together to build the largest free knowledge resource in human history. During this time, we've grown from a small group of editors to a diverse network of editors, developers, affiliates, readers, donors, and partners. Today, we are more than a group of websites. We are a movement rooted in values and a powerful vision: all knowledge for all people. As a movement, we have an opportunity to decide where we go from here.
This movement strategy discussion will focus on the future of our movement: where we want to go together, and what we want to achieve. We hope to design an inclusive process that makes space for everyone: editors, community leaders, affiliates, developers, readers, donors, technology platforms, institutional partners, and people we have yet to reach. There will be multiple ways to participate including on-wiki, in private spaces, and in-person meetings. You are warmly invited to join and make your voice heard.
The immediate goal is to have a strategic direction by Wikimania 2017 to help frame a discussion on how we work together toward that strategic direction.
Regular updates are being sent to the Wikimedia-l mailing list, and posted on Meta-Wiki. Beginning with this message, monthly reviews of these updates will be sent to this page as well. Sign up to receive future announcements and monthly highlights of strategy updates on your user talk page.
Here is a review of the updates that have been sent so far:

Thảo luận chiến lược phát triển phong trào Wikimedia năm 2017: Lời chào mừng sửa
Từ tháng 3 đến tháng 8 năm 2017 Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) - tổ chức phi chính phủ quản lý Wikipedia và các trang web liên quan - tổ chức thảo luận trên quy mô toàn cầu về hướng phát triển wikipedia trong tương lai gần 15 năm tới. Mọi người có thể đọc chi tiết về thảo luận này tại meta bằng tiếng Anh, hoặc bản dịch tiếng Việt chưa đầy đủ tại đây.
Tôi Tuanminh01 được meta phân công làm người kết nối các thông tin và trao đổi của chúng ta, những thành viên trong cộng đồng Wikipedia và các trang liên quan, chuyển lên WMF các ý kiến tổng hợp sau cùng về quan điểm của cộng đồng Việt Nam.
Trong vòng 1 tuần tới, các thông báo tại trang meta trên sẽ được dịch và thông báo tại đây để các anh chị em cùng thảo luận trên các vấn đề cốt lõi của wikipedia như: ai sẽ tham gia soạn thảo, làm sao để thu hút họ, làm sao có tiền quyền góp, cách thức tương tác giữa trang web và người soạn thảo v.v... Chi tiết cụ thể thì bên meta họ cũng đang làm việc, nên tôi cũng chỉ được thông báo khi họ tạo xong bộ khung chính thức của cách thức thảo luận và nội dung của nó.
Trích: Trong 15 năm, các thành viên của Wikimedia đã làm việc cùng nhau tạo dựng nên một nguồn tài nguyên kiến thức miễn phí lớn nhất trong lịch sử nhân loại. Trong quãng thới gian đó, chúng ta đã phát triển từ một nhóm nhỏ và một vài biên tập viên thực hiện các vai trò khác nhau như nhà biên tập, nhà phát triển, độc giả, nhà tài trợ, và cả các đối tác. Ngày nay, chúng ta đã có rất nhiều website, có những giá trị bền vững và một tầm nhìn lâu dài, đó là tất cả tinh hoa kiến thức nhân loại.
Với tư cách là một phong trào, chúng ta có cơ hội quyết định chúng ta sẽ đi đến đâu. Chúng ta có thể quyết định cách thức biến tầm nhìn của chúng ta thành hiện thực. 15 năm nữa kể từ bây giờ, khi chúng ta nhìn lại, chúng ta sẽ đạt dược cái gì? Chúng ta muốn đóng vai trò gì trên thế giới này? Ai sẽ tham gia vào phong trào của chúng ta? Công việc gì sẽ chờ chúng ta? Đó là các câu hỏi chúng ta có thể cùng nhau trả lời.'
Tôi sẽ liên tục cập nhật trang này để thông báo tới mọi người chủ đề thảo luận.
Kính mời mọi người tham gia góp ý kiến tại đây trong thời gian tới.
Trân trọng, Tuanminh01 (WMF) (thảo luận) 11:14, ngày 9 tháng 3 năm 2017 (UTC)

Please accept our apologies for cross-posting this message. This message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki.
On behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee, I am pleased to announce that self-nominations are being accepted for the 2017 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Elections.
The Board of Trustees (Board) is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long-term sustainability of the Wikimedia Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. More information about this role can be found on Meta-Wiki. Please read the letter from the Board of Trustees calling for candidates.
The candidacy submission phase will last from April 7 (00:00 UTC) to April 20 (23:59 UTC).
We will also be accepting questions to ask the candidates from April 7 to April 20. You can submit your questions on Meta-Wiki.
Once the questions submission period has ended on April 20, the Elections Committee will then collate the questions for the candidates to respond to beginning on April 21.
The goal of this process is to fill the three community-selected seats on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. The election results will be used by the Board itself to select its new members.
The full schedule for the Board elections is as follows. All dates are inclusive, that is, from the beginning of the first day (UTC) to the end of the last.
- April 7 (00:00 UTC) – April 20 (23:59 UTC) – Board nominations
- April 7 – April 20 – Board candidates questions submission period
- April 21 – April 30 – Board candidates answer questions
- May 1 – May 14 – Board voting period
- May 15–19 – Board vote checking
- May 20 – Board result announcement goal
In addition to the Board elections, we will also soon be holding elections for the following roles:
- Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)
- There are five positions being filled. More information about this election will be available on Meta-Wiki.
- Funds Dissemination Committee Ombudsperson (Ombuds)
- One position is being filled. More information about this election will be available on Meta-Wiki.
Please note that this year the Board of Trustees elections will be held before the FDC and Ombuds elections. Candidates who are not elected to the Board are explicitly permitted and encouraged to submit themselves as candidates to the FDC or Ombuds positions after the results of the Board elections are announced.
More information on this year's elections can be found on Meta-Wiki. Any questions related to the election can be posted on the election talk page on Meta-Wiki, or sent to the election committee's mailing list, board-elections
wikimedia.org.
On behalf of the Election Committee,
Katie Chan, Chair, Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee
Joe Sutherland, Community Advocate, Wikimedia Foundation

The Wikimedia Foundation will be testing its secondary data center in Dallas. 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 conduct a planned test. This test will show whether they can reliably switch from one data center 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 center on Wednesday, 19 April 2017. On Wednesday, 3 May 2017, they will switch back to the primary data center.
Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop during those two switches. 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 approximately 20 to 30 minutes on Wednesday, 19 April and Wednesday, 3 May. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Thursday 20 April and Thursday 4 May).
- 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 weeks of 17 April 2017 and 1 May 2017. 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. /User:Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk)

Beta Feature Two Column Edit Conflict View sửa
Editing News #1—2017 sửa
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
Did you know that you can review your changes visually?
In visual mode, you will see additions, removals, new links, and formatting highlighted. Other changes, such as changing the size of an image, are described in notes on the side.
Click the toggle button to switch between visual and wikitext diffs.
The wikitext diff is the same diff tool that is used in the wikitext editors and in the page history. You can read and help translate the user guide, which has more information about how to use the visual editor.
Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor Team has spent most of their time supporting the 2017 wikitext editor mode which is available inside the visual editor as a Beta Feature, and adding the new visual diff tool. Their workboard is available in Phabricator. You can find links to the work finished each week at mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings. Their current priorities are fixing bugs, supporting the 2017 wikitext editor as a beta feature, and improving the visual diff tool.
Recent changes sửa
- A new wikitext editing mode is available as a Beta Feature on desktop devices. The 2017 wikitext editor has the same toolbar as the visual editor and can use the citoid service and other modern tools. Go to Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures to enable the ⧼Visualeditor-preference-newwikitexteditor-label⧽.
- A new visual diff tool is available in VisualEditor's visual mode. You can toggle between wikitext and visual diffs. More features will be added to this later. In the future, this tool may be integrated into other MediaWiki components. [1]
- The team have added multi-column support for lists of footnotes. The
<references />block can automatically display long lists of references in columns on wide screens. This makes footnotes easier to read. You can request multi-column support for your wiki. [2] - You can now use your web browser's function to switch typing direction in the new wikitext mode. This is particularly helpful for RTL language users like Urdu or Hebrew who have to write JavaScript or CSS. You can use Command+Shift+X or Control+Shift+X to trigger this. [3]
- The way to switch between the visual editing mode and the wikitext editing mode is now consistent. There is a drop-down menu that shows the two options. This is now the same in desktop and mobile web editing, and inside things that embed editing, such as Flow. [4]
- The Thể loại item has been moved to the top of the Tùy chọn trang menu (from clicking on the "hamburger" icon) for quicker access. [5] There is also now a "Templates used on this page" feature there. [6]
- You can now create
<chem>tags (sometimes used as<ce>) for chemical formulas inside the visual editor. [7] - Tables can be set as collapsed or un-collapsed. [8]
- The Ký tự đặc biệt menu now includes characters for Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics and angle quotation marks (‹› and ⟨⟩) . The team thanks the volunteer developer, Tpt. [9]
- A bug caused some section edit conflicts to blank the rest of the page. This has been fixed. The team are sorry for the disruption. [10]
- There is a new keyboard shortcut for citations:
Control+Shift+Kon a PC, orCommand+Shift+Kon a Mac. It is based on the keyboard shortcut for making links, which isControl+KorCommand+Krespectively. [11]
Future changes sửa
- The team is working on a syntax highlighting tool. It will highlight matching pairs of
<ref>tags and other types of wikitext syntax. You will be able to turn it on and off. It will first become available in VisualEditor's built-in wikitext mode, maybe late in 2017. [12] - The kind of button used to Xem trước, Xem thay đổi, and finish an edit will change in all WMF-supported wikitext editors. The new buttons will use OOjs UI. The buttons will be larger, brighter, and easier to read. The labels will remain the same. You can test the new button by editing a page and adding
&ooui=1to the end of the URL, like this: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Sandbox?action=edit&ooui=1 The old appearance will no longer be possible, even with local CSS changes. [13] - The outdated 2006 wikitext editor will be removed later this year. It is used by approximately 0.03% of active editors. See a list of editing tools on mediawiki.org if you are uncertain which one you use. [14]

Columns for references sửa
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 <references /> 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: <references responsive="0" />

Improved search in deleted pages archive sửa
Xin hãy giúp dịch sang ngôn ngữ của bạn
During Wikimedia Hackathon 2016, the Discovery team worked on one of the items on the 2015 community wishlist, namely enabling searching the archive of deleted pages. This feature is now ready for production deployment, and will be enabled on all wikis, except Wikidata.
Right now, the feature is behind a feature flag - to use it on your wiki, please go to the Special:Undelete page, and add &fuzzy=1 to the URL, like this: https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AUndelete&fuzzy=1. Then search for the pages you're interested in. There should be more results than before, due to using ElasticSearch indexing (via the CirrusSearch extension).
We plan to enable this improved search by default on all wikis soon (around August 1, 2017). If you have any objections to this - please raise them with the Discovery team via email or on this announcement's discussion page. Like most Mediawiki configuration parameters, the functionality can be configured per wiki.
Once the improved search becomes the default, you can still access the old mode using &fuzzy=0 in the URL, like this: https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AUndelete&fuzzy=0
Please note that since Special:Undelete is an admin-only feature, this search capability is also only accessible to wiki admins.
Cảm ơn! CKoerner (WMF) (talk) 18:40, ngày 25 tháng 7 năm 2017 (UTC)
Accessible editing buttons sửa
You can see and use the old and new versions now. Most editors will only notice that some buttons are slightly larger and have different colors.
- Comparison of old and new styles

Buttons before the change -
Buttons after the change
However, this change also affects some user scripts and gadgets. Unfortunately, some of them may not work well in the new system. If you maintain any user scripts or gadgets that are used for editing, please see mw:Contributors/Projects/Accessible editing buttons for information on how to test and fix your scripts. Outdated scripts can be tested and fixed now.
This change will probably reach this wiki on Tuesday, 1 August 2017. Please leave a note at mw:Talk:Contributors/Projects/Accessible editing buttons if you need help.--Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 16:56, ngày 27 tháng 7 năm 2017 (UTC)

New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers sửa
New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers
The Readers web team will be deploying a new feature this week to make it easier to download PDF versions of articles on the mobile website.
Providing better offline functionality was one of the highlighted areas from the research done by the New Readers team in Mexico, Nigeria, and India. The teams created a prototype for mobile PDFs which was evaluated by user research and community feedback. The prototype evaluation received positive feedback and results, so development continued.
For the initial deployment, the feature will be available to Google Chrome browsers on Android. Support for other mobile browsers to come in the future. For Chrome, the feature will use the native Android print functionality. Users can choose to download a webpage as a PDF. Mobile print styles will be used for these PDFs to ensure optimal readability for smaller screens.
The feature is available starting Wednesday, Nov 15. For more information, see the project page on MediaWiki.org.
Cảm ơn!

Did you know that you can now use the visual diff tool on any page?
Sometimes, it is hard to see important changes in a wikitext diff. This screenshot of a wikitext diff (click to enlarge) shows that the paragraphs have been rearranged, but it does not highlight the removal of a word or the addition of a new sentence.
If you enable the Beta Feature for "⧼visualeditor-preference-visualdiffpage-label⧽", you will have a new option. It will give you a new box at the top of every diff page. This box will let you choose either diff system on any edit.
Click the toggle button to switch between visual and wikitext diffs.
In the visual diff, additions, removals, new links, and formatting changes will be highlighted. Other changes, such as changing the size of an image, are described in notes on the side.
This screenshot shows the same edit as the wikitext diff. The visual diff highlights the removal of one word and the addition of a new sentence.
You can read and help translate the user guide, which has more information about how to use the visual editor.
Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has spent most of their time supporting the 2017 wikitext editor mode, which is available inside the visual editor as a Beta Feature, and improving the visual diff tool.

Recent changes sửa
- The 2017 wikitext editor is available as a Beta Feature on desktop devices. It has the same toolbar as the visual editor and can use the citoid service and other modern tools. The team have been comparing the performance of different editing environments. They have studied how long it takes to open the page and start typing. The study uses data for more than one million edits during December and January. Some changes have been made to improve the speed of the 2017 wikitext editor and the visual editor. Recently, the 2017 wikitext editor opened fastest for most edits, and the 2010 WikiEditor was fastest for some edits. More information will be posted at mw:Contributors/Projects/Editing performance.
- The visual diff tool was developed for the visual editor. It is now available to all users of the visual editor and the 2017 wikitext editor. When you review your changes, you can toggle between wikitext and visual diffs. You can also enable the new Beta Feature for "Visual diffs". The Beta Feature lets you use the visual diff tool to view other people's edits on page histories and Special:RecentChanges. [15]
- Wikitext syntax highlighting is available as a Beta Feature for both the 2017 wikitext editor and the 2010 wikitext editor. [16]
- The citoid service automatically translates URLs, DOIs, ISBNs, and PubMed id numbers into wikitext citation templates. It is very popular and useful to editors, although it can be a bit tricky to set up. Your wiki can have this service. Please read the instructions. You can ask the team to help you enable citoid at your wiki.
Let's work together sửa
- The team will talk about editing tools at an upcoming Wikimedia Foundation metrics and activities meeting.
- Wikibooks, Wikiversity, and other communities may have the visual editor made available by default to contributors. If your community wants this, then please contact Dan Garry.
- The
<references />block can automatically display long lists of references in columns on wide screens. This makes footnotes easier to read. You can request multi-column support for your wiki.

Update on page issues on mobile web sửa
Update on page issues on mobile web
Xin hãy giúp dịch sang ngôn ngữ của bạn Hi everyone. The Readers web team has recently begun working on exposing issue templates on the mobile website. Currently, details about issues with page content are generally hidden on the mobile website. This leaves readers unaware of the reliability of the pages they are reading. The goal of this project is to improve awareness of particular issues within an article on the mobile web. We will do this by changing the visual styling of page issues.
So far, we have drafted a proposal on the design and implementation of the project. We were also able to run user testing on the proposed designs. The tests so far have positive results. Here is a quick summary of what we learned:
- The new treatment increases awareness of page issues among participants. This is true particularly when they are in a more evaluative/critical mode.
- Page issues make sense to readers and they understand how they work
- Readers care about page issues and consider them important
- Readers had overwhelmingly positive sentiments towards Wikipedia associated with learning about page issues
Our next step would be to start implementing these changes. We wanted to reach out to you for any concerns, thoughts, and suggestions you might have before beginning development. Please visit the project page where we have more information and mockups of how this may look. Please leave feedback on the talk page.

New user group for editing sitewide CSS / JS sửa
(Xin hãy giúp dịch sang ngôn ngữ của bạn)
Hi all!
To improve the security of our readers and editors, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed. (These are pages like MediaWiki:Common.css and MediaWiki:Vector.js which contain code that is executed in the browsers of users of the site.)
A new user group, interface-admin, has been created.
Starting four weeks from now, only members of this group will be able edit CSS/JS pages that they do not own (that is, any page ending with .css or .js that is either in the MediaWiki: namespace or is another user's user subpage).
You can learn more about the motivation behind the change here.
Please add users who need to edit CSS/JS to the new group (this can be done the same way new administrators are added, by stewards or local bureaucrats). This is a dangerous permission; a malicious user or a hacker taking over the account of a careless interface-admin can abuse it in far worse ways than admin permissions could be abused. Please only assign it to users who need it, who are trusted by the community, and who follow common basic password and computer security practices (use strong passwords, do not reuse passwords, use two-factor authentication if possible, do not install software of questionable origin on your machine, use antivirus software if that's a standard thing in your environment).
Thanks!

Editing of sitewide CSS/JS is only possible for interface administrators from now sửa
(Xin hãy giúp dịch sang ngôn ngữ của bạn)
Hi all,
as announced previously, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed: only members of the interface-admin (Bảo quản viên giao diện) group, and a few highly privileged global groups such as stewards, can edit CSS/JS pages that they do not own (that is, any page ending with .css or .js that is either in the MediaWiki: namespace or is another user's user subpage). This is done to improve the security of readers and editors of Wikimedia projects. More information is available at Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS. If you encounter any unexpected problems, please contact me or file a bug.
Thanks!

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 center on Wednesday, 12 September 2018. On Wednesday, 10 October 2018, they will switch back to the primary data center.
Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop when we switch. 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 Wednesday, 12 September and Wednesday, 10 October. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Thursday 13 September and Thursday 11 October).
- 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 weeks of 10 September 2018 and 8 October 2018. 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. /User:Johan(WMF) (talk)

Change coming to how certain templates will appear on the mobile web
Xin hãy giúp dịch sang ngôn ngữ của bạn
Hello,
In a few weeks the Readers web team will be changing how some templates look on the mobile web site. We will make these templates more noticeable when viewing the article. We ask for your help in updating any templates that don't look correct.
What kind of templates? Specifically templates that notify readers and contributors about issues with the content of an article – the text and information in the article. Examples like Template:Unreferenced or Template:More citations needed. Right now these notifications are hidden behind a link under the title of an article. We will format templates like these (mostly those that use Template:Ambox or message box templates in general) to show a short summary under the page title. You can tap on the "Learn more" link to get more information.
For template editors we have some recommendations on how to make templates that are mobile-friendly and also further documentation on our work so far.
If you have questions about formatting templates for mobile, please leave a note on the project talk page or file a task in Phabricator and we will help you.
Cảm ơn!

FileExporter beta feature sửa
A new beta feature will soon be released on all wikis: The FileExporter. It allows exports of files from a local wiki to Wikimedia Commons, including their file history and page history. Which files can be exported is defined by each wiki's community: Please check your wiki's configuration file if you want to use this feature.
The FileExporter has already been a beta feature on mediawiki.org, meta.wikimedia, deWP, faWP, arWP, koWP and on wikisource.org. After some functionality was added, it's now becoming a beta feature on all wikis. Deployment is planned for January 16. More information can be found on the project page.
As always, feedback is highly appreciated. If you want to test the FileExporter, please activate it in your user preferences. The best place for feedback is the central talk page. Thank you from Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes project.
No editing for 30 minutes on 17 January sửa
Talk to us about talking sửa
The Wikimedia Foundation is planning a global consultation about communication. The goal is to bring Wikimedians and wiki-minded people together to improve tools for communication.
We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis, whatever their experience, their skills or their devices.
We are looking for input from as many different parts of the Wikimedia community as possible. It will come from multiple projects, in multiple languages, and with multiple perspectives.
We are currently planning the consultation. We need your help.
We need volunteers to help talk to their communities or user groups.
You can help by hosting a discussion at your wiki. Here's what to do:
- First, sign up your group here.
- Next, create a page (or a section on a Village pump, or an e-mail thread – whatever is natural for your group) to collect information from other people in your group. This is not a vote or decision-making discussion: we are just collecting feedback.
- Then ask people what they think about communication processes. We want to hear stories and other information about how people communicate with each other on and off wiki. Please consider asking these five questions:
- When you want to discuss a topic with your community, what tools work for you, and what problems block you?
- What about talk pages works for newcomers, and what blocks them?
- What do others struggle with in your community about talk pages?
- What do you wish you could do on talk pages, but can't due to the technical limitations?
- What are the important aspects of a "wiki discussion"?
- Finally, please go to Talk pages consultation 2019 on Mediawiki.org and report what you learned from your group. Please include links if the discussion is available to the public.
You can also help build the list of the many different ways people talk to each other.
Not all groups active on wikis or around wikis use the same way to discuss things: it can happen on wiki, on social networks, through external tools... Tell us how your group communicates.
You can read more about the overall process on mediawiki.org. If you have questions or ideas, you can leave feedback about the consultation process in the language you prefer.
Thank you! We're looking forward to talking with you.

Edit Cards
This is what the new Edit Cards for editing links in the mobile visual editor look like. You can try the prototype here: 📲 Try Edit Cards.
Welcome back to the Editing newsletter.
Since the last newsletter, the team has released two new features for the mobile visual editor and has started developing three more. All of this work is part of the team's goal to make editing on mobile web simpler.
Before talking about the team's recent releases, we have a question for you:
Are you willing to try a new way to add and change links?
If you are interested, we would value your input! You can try this new link tool in the mobile visual editor on a separate wiki.
Follow these instructions and share your experience:
Recent releases sửa
The mobile visual editor is a simpler editing tool, for smartphones and tablets using the mobile site. The Editing team recently launched two new features to improve the mobile visual editor:
- Section editing
- The purpose is to help contributors focus on their edits.
- The team studied this with an A/B test. This test showed that contributors who could use section editing were 1% more likely to publish the edits they started than people with only full-page editing.
- Loading overlay
- The purpose is to smooth the transition between reading and editing.
Section editing and the new loading overlay are now available to everyone using the mobile visual editor.
New and active projects sửa
This is a list of our most active projects. Watch these pages to learn about project updates and to share your input on new designs, prototypes and research findings.
- Edit cards: This is a clearer way to add and edit links, citations, images, templates, etc. in articles. You can try this feature now. Go here to see how: 📲 Try Edit Cards.
- Mobile toolbar refresh: This project will learn if contributors are more successful when the editing tools are easier to recognize.
- Mobile visual editor availability: This A/B test asks: Are newer contributors more successful if they use the mobile visual editor? We are collaborating with 20 Wikipedias to answer this question.
- Usability improvements: This project will make the mobile visual editor easier to use. The goal is to let contributors stay focused on editing and to feel more confident in the editing tools.
Looking ahead sửa
- Wikimania: Several members of the Editing Team will be attending Wikimania in August 2019. They will lead a session about mobile editing in the Community Growth space. Talk to the team about how editing can be improved.
- Talk Pages: In the coming months, the Editing Team will begin improving talk pages and communication on the wikis.
Learning more sửa
The VisualEditor on mobile is a good place to learn more about the projects we are working on. The team wants to talk with you about anything related to editing. If you have something to say or ask, please leave a message at Talk:VisualEditor on mobile.
Update on the consultation about office actions sửa
Hello all,
Last month, the Wikimedia Foundation's Trust & Safety team announced a future consultation about partial and/or temporary office actions. We want to let you know that the draft version of this consultation has now been posted on Meta.
This is a draft. It is not intended to be the consultation itself, which will be posted on Meta likely in early September. Please do not treat this draft as a consultation. Instead, we ask your assistance in forming the final language for the consultation.
For that end, we would like your input over the next couple of weeks about what questions the consultation should ask about partial and temporary Foundation office action bans and how it should be formatted. Please post it on the draft talk page. Our goal is to provide space for the community to discuss all the aspects of these office actions that need to be discussed, and we want to ensure with your feedback that the consultation is presented in the best way to encourage frank and constructive conversation.
Please visit the consultation draft on Meta-wiki and leave your comments on the draft’s talk page about what the consultation should look like and what questions it should ask.
Thank you for your input! -- The Trust & Safety team 08:03, ngày 16 tháng 8 năm 2019 (UTC)
New tools and IP masking sửa
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.
Johan (WMF)The consultation on partial and temporary Foundation bans just started sửa
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 sửa
Xin chào. Nhóm Readers Web tại Quỹ Wikimedia sẽ chú trọng vào việc cải thiện giao diện máy tính để bàn trong thời gian vài năm, nhằm mục đích tăng khả năng sử dụng mà không xóa chức năng nào. Các nỗ lực của người tình nguyện gây cảm hứng cho chúng tôi nhưng cho đến nay chỉ có thể tạo ra các tiện ích và kịch bản địa phương, bản đề nghị, và giao diện (skin) tùy chỉnh. Chúng tôi muốn bắt đầu quá trình mang một số thay đổi nào vào trải nghiệm mặc định tại tất cả các dự án Wikimedia.
Chúng tôi hiện tại đang nghiên cứu cho dự án này và kêu gọi các ý kiến cải thiện và phản hồi về các đề nghị và mô hình hiện tại. Cho đến này, chúng tôi đã phỏng vấn thành viên cộng đồng tại Wikimania. Chúng tôi đã biên soạn danh sách các nỗ lực của tình nguyện và Quỹ Wikimedia về điều này. Chúng tôi đang tìm cách thực hiện các thay đổi được gợi ý.
Chúng tôi mời các bạn phản hồi ý kiến về các điều sau:
- Nhận ra các điểm trọng tâm cho dự án mà chúng tôi chưa nghĩ đến.
- Mở rộng danh sách tiện ích và kịch bản người dùng có liên quan đến cải thiện giao diện trên máy tính để bàn. Nếu bạn biết đến tiện ích hoặc kịch bản nào có ích, xin cho chúng tôi biết.
- Phản hồi về các đề nghị và mô hình chúng tôi đã biên soạn cho đến nay.
Chúng tôi cũng muốn biên soạn danh sách các wiki muốn thử nghiệm các thay đổi của dự án này. Lúc khi chúng tôi sẵn sàng bắt đầu xây dựng, các wiki này sẽ có quyền truy cập các thay đổi trước các wiki kia.
Khi nào gửi phản hồi, xin hãy nhớ các mục đích của dự án:
- Làm cho người đọc dễ tập trung sự chú ý vào nội dung
- Cho phép truy cập các tác vụ hằng ngày một cách tiện hơn (ví dụ tìm kiếm, thay đổi ngôn ngữ, sửa đổi)
- Sắp xếp mọi tính năng vào nơi hợp lý có ích
- Thống nhất giao diện với các nền tảng khác – Web di động và ứng dụng di động
- Loại trừ lộn xộn
- Sửa soạn mai mốt phát triển
Cũng như các ràng buộc sau:
- Không nghịch ngợm với nội dung: chúng tôi sẽ không lo lắng về các bản mẫu định kiểu hoặc cấu trúc nội dung trang
- Không loại trừ chức năng nào: các chức năng có thể di chuyển, nhưng tất cả các mục chuyển hướng và chức năng mặc định sẽ còn lại
- Không thay đổi bố cục quá mức: chúng tôi có phương pháp tiến hóa đối với các thay đổi và muốn những người đọc và sửa đổi tiếp tục cảm thấy quen thuộc với trang
Xin hãy gửi ý kiến nào đó (trong ngôn ngữ nào đó) tại mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements
Sau khi vòng phản hồi này, chúng tôi định xây dựng mô hình các thay đổi gợi ý dựa trên các ý kiến phản hồi chúng tôi nhận được. Chúng tôi sẽ liên lạc với các bạn lần nữa sau đây để yêu cầu phản hồi về mô hình này.

Thay đổi gần đây
- Tất cả người dùng trang di động của Wikimedia sẽ được trang bị thêm một số tính năng mới, bao gồm: các tab riêng cho trang nội dung/trang thảo luận, menu người dùng mở rộng, liên kết truy cập trực tiếp vào trang lịch sử của bài.

Additional interface for edit conflicts on talk pages sửa
Sorry, for writing this text in English. If you could help to translate it, it would be appreciated.
You might know the new interface for edit conflicts (currently a beta feature). Now, Wikimedia Germany is designing an additional interface to solve edit conflicts on talk pages. This interface is shown to you when you write on a discussion page and another person writes a discussion post in the same line and saves it before you do. With this additional editing conflict interface you can adjust the order of the comments and edit your comment. We are inviting everyone to have a look at the planned feature. Let us know what you think on our central feedback page! -- For the Technical Wishes Team: Max Klemm (WMDE) 14:15, ngày 26 tháng 2 năm 2020 (UTC)

Problems

You will now be able to choose that you need to enter both your email address and your username. This will be a preference. This is to get fewer password reset emails someone else asked for. [56]
- When you asked for a new password you could see if the username didn't exist on Special:PasswordReset. Now the page will show the username you entered and tell you an email has been sent if the username exists. This is for better security. [57]
- On Special:WhatLinksHere you can see what other pages link to a page. You can see if the link is from a redirect. You can now see which section the redirect links to. [58]
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 3 March. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 4 March. It will be on all wikis from 5 March (calendar).

Editing news 2020 #2 sửa
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
This issue of the Editing newsletter includes information the Talk pages project, an effort to help contributors communicate on wiki more easily.
- Reply tool: This is available as a Beta Feature at the four partner wikis (Arabic, Dutch, French, and Hungarian Wikipedias). The Beta Feature is called "Công cụ thảo luận". The Beta Feature will get new features soon. The new features include writing comments in a new visual editing mode and pinging other users by typing
@. You can test the new features on the Beta Cluster now. Some other wikis will have a chance to try the Beta Feature in the coming months. - New requirements for user signatures: Soon, users will not be able to save invalid custom signatures in Special:Preferences. This will reduce signature spoofing, prevent page corruption, and make new talk page tools more reliable. Most editors will not be affected.
- New discussion tool: The Editing team is beginning work on a simpler process for starting new discussions. You can see the initial design on the project page.
- Research on the use of talk pages: The Editing team worked with the Wikimedia research team to study how talk pages help editors improve articles. We learned that new editors who use talk pages make more edits to the main namespace than new editors who don't use talk pages.

Feedback on movement names sửa
Xin chào. Apologies if you are not reading this message in your native language. Xin hãy giúp dịch sang ngôn ngữ của bạn if necessary. Cảm ơn!
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, --The Brand Project team, 19:39, ngày 2 tháng 7 năm 2020 (UTC)
Note: The survey is conducted via a third-party service, which may subject it to additional terms. For more information on privacy and data-handling, see the survey privacy statement.

- The iOS Wikipedia app developers are thinking about new experimental tools. If you use an iPhone you can help them by answering the survey.
- Some rules for user signatures will soon be enforced. Lint errors and invalid HTML will no longer be allowed in user signatures. Nested substitution will not be allowed. A link to your user page, user talk page or user contributions will be required. You can check if your signature works with the new rules. This is because the signatures can cause problems for tools or other text on the page.

Announcing a new wiki project! Welcome, Abstract Wikipedia sửa
Thông báo một dự án wiki mới! Chào mừng tới Wikipedia trừu tượng sửa
Xin chào tất cả các bạn,
Tôi vinh dự được giới thiệu Wikipedia Trừu tượng, một dự án mới đã được Hội đồng quản trị Wikimedia Foundation nhất trí phê duyệt. Tóm tắt Wikipedia đề xuất một cách mới để tạo nội dung bách khoa toàn thư theo kiểu đa ngôn ngữ, cho phép nhiều người đóng góp và nhiều độc giả chia sẻ nhiều kiến thức hơn bằng nhiều ngôn ngữ hơn. Đó là một cách tiếp cận nhằm mục đích giúp hợp tác xuyên ngôn ngữ dễ dàng hơn trong các dự án của chúng ta, tăng tính bền vững của phong trào thông qua việc mở rộng quyền truy cập, cải thiện trải nghiệm người dùng cho tất cả các ngôn ngữ và đổi mới kiến thức miễn phí bằng cách kết nối một số điểm mạnh của phong trào của chúng ta để tạo ra một cái gì đó mới.
Đây là dự án mới đầu tiên của chúng tôi trong hơn bảy năm. Tóm tắt Wikipedia đã được đệ trình như một đề xuất dự án của Denny Vrandečić vào tháng 5 năm 2020[1] sau nhiều năm chuẩn bị và nghiên cứu, dẫn đến một kế hoạch chi tiết và thảo luận sôi nổi trong cộng đồng Wikimedia . Chúng tôi biết rằng năng lượng và sự sáng tạo của cộng đồng thường chạy theo các rào cản ngôn ngữ và thông tin có sẵn trong một ngôn ngữ có thể không chuyển sang ngôn ngữ khác Wikipedias. Wikipedia Trừu tượng dự định sẽ có ngoại hình và cảm nhận như một Wikipedia, nhưng xây dựng trên các mô hình khái niệm mạnh mẽ, độc lập với ngôn ngữ của Wikidata, với mục tiêu cho phép các tình nguyện viên tạo và duy trì các bài viết Wikipedia trên thế giới Wikimedia đa ngôn ngữ của chúng ta.
Dự án sẽ cho phép các tình nguyện viên tập hợp các nguyên tắc cơ bản của một bài viết bằng cách sử dụng các từ và thực thể từ Wikidata. Do Wikidata sử dụng các mô hình khái niệm có nghĩa là phổ quát trên các ngôn ngữ, nên có thể sử dụng và mở rộng các khối kiến thức này để tạo mô hình cho các bài viết cũng có giá trị phổ quát. Sử dụng mã, các tình nguyện viên sẽ có thể dịch các bài viết trừu tượng này thành ngôn ngữ của họ. Nếu thành công, điều này cuối cùng có thể cho phép mọi người đọc về bất kỳ chủ đề nào trong Wikidata bằng ngôn ngữ của họ.
Như bạn có thể tưởng tượng, công việc này sẽ đòi hỏi rất nhiều sự phát triển phần mềm và rất nhiều sự hợp tác giữa các Wikimedian. Để thực hiện nỗ lực này, Denny sẽ tham gia Quỹ với tư cách là nhân viên vào tháng 7 và lãnh đạo sáng kiến này. Bạn có thể biết Denny là người tạo ra Wikidata, một thành viên cộng đồng lâu năm, cựu nhân viên tại Wikimedia Deutschland và là cựu Ủy viên tại Wikimedia Foundation[2]. Chúng tôi rất vui mừng khi Denny sẽ mang các kỹ năng và chuyên môn của mình để làm việc trong dự án này cùng với các nhóm sản phẩm, công nghệ và các nhóm liên lạc cộng đồng.
Điều quan trọng là phải thừa nhận rằng đây là một dự án thử nghiệm và mỗi cộng đồng Wikipedia có nhu cầu khác nhau. Dự án này có thể tạo ra cho một số cộng đồng lợi thế lớn. Các cộng đồng khác có thể tham gia ít hơn. Mọi cộng đồng Wikipedia ngôn ngữ sẽ được tự do lựa chọn và kiểm duyệt xem họ sẽ sử dụng nội dung từ dự án này như thế nào.
Chúng tôi rất vui vì dự án wiki mới này có khả năng nâng cao công bằng kiến thức thông qua việc tăng khả năng tiếp cận kiến thức. Nó cũng mời chúng ta xem xét và tham gia với các câu hỏi quan trọng về cách thức và kiến thức được xây dựng bởi ai và bởi ai. Chúng tôi mong muốn được hợp tác với cộng đồng để suy nghĩ thông qua những câu hỏi quan trọng này.
Có nhiều việc phải làm khi chúng tôi bắt đầu thiết kế một kế hoạch cho Wikipedia trừu tượng với sự cộng tác chặt chẽ với các cộng đồng của chúng tôi. Tôi khuyến khích bạn tham gia bằng cách truy cập trang dự án và tham gia danh sách gửi thư mới[3]. Chúng tôi nhận ra rằng Wikipedia trừu tượng là tham vọng, nhưng chúng tôi cũng nhận ra tiềm năng của nó. Chúng tôi mời tất cả các bạn tham gia cùng chúng tôi trên một con đường mới, chưa được khám phá.
Thân mến,
Katherine Maher (Executive Director, Wikimedia Foundation)
