IMPORTANT: Admin activity review llamk'apuy

Hello. A policy regarding the removal of "advanced rights" (administrator, bureaucrat, etc. ) was adopted by global community consensus in 2013. According to this policy, the stewards are reviewing administrators' activity on all Wikimedia Foundation wikis with no inactivity policy. To the best of our knowledge, your wiki does not have a formal process for removing "advanced rights" from inactive accounts. This means that the stewards will take care of this according to the admin activity review.

We have determined that the following users meet the inactivity criteria (no edits and no log actions for more than 2 years):

  1. Huhsunqu (administrator)

These users will receive a notification soon, asking them to start a community discussion if they want to retain some or all of their rights. If the users do not respond, then their advanced rights will be removed by the stewards.

However, if you as a community would like to create your own activity review process superseding the global one, want to make another decision about these inactive rights holders, or already have a policy that we missed, then please notify the stewards on Meta-Wiki so that we know not to proceed with the rights review on your wiki. Thanks, --علاء (rimanakuy) 19:26 7 ini 2020 (UTC)[responder]

Movement Learning and Leadership Development Project llamk'apuy

Hello

The Wikimedia Foundation’s Community Development team is seeking to learn more about the way volunteers learn and develop into the many different roles that exist in the movement. Our goal is to build a movement informed framework that provides shared clarity and outlines accessible pathways on how to grow and develop skills within the movement. To this end, we are looking to speak with you, our community to learn about your journey as a Wikimedia volunteer. Whether you joined yesterday or have been here from the very start, we want to hear about the many ways volunteers join and contribute to our movement.

To learn more about the project, please visit the Meta page. If you are interested in participating in the project, please complete this simple Google form. Although we may not be able to speak to everyone who expresses interest, we encourage you to complete this short form if you are interested in participating!

Additional interface for edit conflicts on talk pages llamk'apuy

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 26 phi 2020 (UTC)[responder]

Annual contest Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos llamk'apuy

Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos (WPWP)
Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos (WPWP)

This is to invite you to join the Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos (WPWP) campaign to help improve Wikipedia articles with photos and win prizes. The campaign starts today 1st July 2020 and closes 31st August 2020.

The campaign primarily aims at using images from Wikimedia Commons on Wikipedia articles that are lacking images. Participants will choose among Wikipedia pages without photo images, then add a suitable file from among the many thousands of photos in the Wikimedia Commons, especially those uploaded from thematic contests (Wiki Loves Africa, Wiki Loves Earth, Wiki Loves Folklore, etc.) over the years.

Please visit the campaign page to learn more about the WPWP Campaign.

With kind regards,

Thank you,

Feedback on movement names llamk'apuy

Hola. Apologies if you are not reading this message in your native language. Por favor, ayuda a traducir a tu idioma if necessary. ¡Muchas gracias!

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, 19:42 2 hul 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.

Invitation to participate in the conversation llamk'apuy

I want to make the Quechua Wikipedia more active llamk'apuy

⧼Hi everyone (Imaynallan!)⧽ I am Elwin(User:Elwinlhq) from a Quechua town of Peru, currently, I am working with knowledge graphs, linked open data and technologies related. The last year in the Wikimania Conference at Stockholm I met awesome people from all over the world building and revitalizing native languages through Wikipedia. I also presented my idea on how it might be possible to do it and I found it interesting how other communities are achieving it. I want to apply some methods and techniques that have been used for other communities like Euskadi or Catalan, for instance, I would like to reuse/create automatized templates for creating/updating Quechua articles (e.g., mountains) on Wikipedia by means of bots. Recently, I met Galder(User:Theklan) who could help me in this process and I will be very happy if you (Wikipedia community) can support my idea or guide me in this process.

Please join the conversation and share this idea with others who may be interested to join/help/learn, too.

Thanks in advance for your attention and contributions.

@Elwinlhq, Katariq, and Marco Carrasco: Imaynallan! I'm here to help. If you want to implement this, it will take a couple of hours of work. I would need some consensus and an admin (bibliotecario) to make some changes. -Theklan (rimanakuy) 17:14 17 sit 2020 (UTC)[responder]
  • Hola @Katariq and Marco Carrasco:, would be really great if we could meet or talk about this (I sent you a message). (please, write me: elwinlhq[at]gmail[.]com.). About the admin(bibliotecario), I don't know who is the current admin of Quechua Wikipedia. Could the admin help me? :)
Thanks @Theklan:, definitely I/we will need your help, could you maybe provide me some information where I can have a look and read about this process (e.g. templates, etc.).
You can see it in action at Basque Wikipedia:
Everything is retrieved from Wikidata, and you only need to translate the words, but once a word is translated (for example: writer) it is translated for all writers. The installation is fast, but some changes need an admin. -Theklan (rimanakuy) 21:18 20 sit 2020 (UTC)[responder]
