Nadchádzajúce hlasovanie o ratifikácii Pravidiel presadzovania Všeobecného kódexu správania
upraviťDobrý deň,
V polovici januára 2023 prebehne komunitné hlasovanie o ratifikácii Pravidiel presadzovania Všeobecného kódexu správania. Bude nadväzovať na hlasovanie uskutočnené v marci 2022, v ktorom väčšina hlasujúcich Pravidla presadzovania podporila. Používatelia, ktorí prispeli do hlasovania, pomohli upozorniť na podstatné obavy komunity. Výbor pre komunitné záležitosti nadácie Wikimédia požiadal o posúdenie týchto problémov.
Revízny výbor, zložený z dobrovoľníkov, usilovne pracoval na preskúmaní podnetov komunity a na úprave textu. Aktualizovali problematické oblasti, ako napríklad sekcia o požiadavkách na školenie, potvrdenie o dodržiavaní, ochrane súkromia a transparentnosti. Tiež zlepšili čitateľnosť a uľahčili preklad celého dokumentu.
Revidované Pravidlá presadzovania nájdete tu, a porovnanie zmien si môžete pozrieť tu.
Ako hlasovať?
Hlasovanie bude otvorené 17. januára 2023. Táto stránka na Meta-Wiki obsahuje návod na používanie nástroja SecurePoll, cez ktoré bude vedené hlasovanie.
Kto môže hlasovať?
Požiadavky k spôsobilosti na toto hlasovanie sú rovnaké ako pre voľby do správnej rady Wikimédiw. Ďalšie podrobnosti o oprávnenosti voličov nájdete na stránke s informáciami o voličoch. Ak ste oprávneným voličom, môžete použiť svoj účet Wikimédie na prístup k hlasovaciemu serveru.
Čo sa bude diať po hlasovaní?
Hlasy budú spracované nezávislou skupinou dobrovoľníkov a výsledky budú publikované v mailing liste Wikimedia-l, na fóre Stratégia hnutia, na blogu Diff a na Meta-Wiki. Užívatelia budú môcť opäť hlasovať a podeliť sa o svoje pripomienky k Pravidlám. Správna rada posúdi mieru podpory a vyjadrené obavy, až bude zvažovať, či by Pravidlá presadzovania mali byť ratifikované, alebo ďalej rozvíjané.

Content and Section Translation tool enabled in Slovak Wikipedia
upraviťDobrý deň Friends!
The WMF Language team is pleased to let you know that we have enabled the Section translation and Content translation tools in Slovak Wikipedia.
The Content translation tool can be discovered by users through several entry points. However, users not interested in translation can disable it from their preferences. Also, with the Section translation tool, you can start translating an article on your mobile device right when you notice it is missing in Slovak. From a Wikipedia article in any language, switch languages and search for slovenčina. If the article does not exist, an option to translate it will appear, as shown in the image below.
We know that these tools will help translators in your community to add content using any device with ease. Content created with the Content and Section Translation tool will be marked with the "contenttranslation" and “sectiontranslaiton” tag, respectively, for the community to review. We’ll monitor the content created, but we are interested in hearing about your experience using the tools and reviewing the content created with it.
So, enjoy the tools and provide feedback on improving it.
Thank you!

Community feedback-cycle about updating the Wikimedia Terms of Use starts
upraviťHello everyone,
Wikimedia Foundation Legal Department is organizing a feedback-cycle with community members to discuss updating the Wikimedia Terms of Use.
The Terms of Use (ToU) are the legal terms that govern the use of websites hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation. We will be gathering your feedback on a draft proposal from February through April. The draft will be translated into several languages, with written feedback accepted in any language.
This update comes in response to several things:
- Implementing the Universal Code of Conduct
- Updating project text to the Creative Commons BY-SA 4.0 license
- Proposal for better addressing undisclosed paid editing
- Bringing our terms in line with current and recently passed laws affecting the Foundation, including the European Digital Services Act
As part of the feedback cycle two office hours will be held, the first on March 2, the second on April 4.
For further information, please consult:
- The proposed update of the ToU by comparison
- The page for your feedback
- Information about the office hours
On behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Legal Team,
Your wiki will be in read only soon

Nadácia Wikimedia bude testovať prepínanie medzi prvým a sekundárnym dátovým centrom. To zaistí, že Wikipedia a ďalšie Wikimedia stránky zostanú online aj v prípade katastrofy. Aby sme sa uistili, že všetko funguje, technické oddelenie Wikimedie potrebuje vykonať naplánovaný test. Tento test ukáže, či dokážu spoľahlivo prepnúť s jedného dátového centra do druhého. Na riešenie akýchkoľvek neočakávaných problémov a na prípravu testu je potrebných mnoho tímov.
Všetka prevádzka bude prepnutá do 1 marca. Test sa začne o 14:00 UTC (15:00 CEST).
Kvôli istým obmedzeniam v MediaWiki sa žial musia všetky editácie počas prepínania zastaviť. Ospravedlňujeme sa za túto nepríjemnosť a pracujeme na tom, aby sme ju v budúcnosti minimalizovali.
Na krátku dobu budete môcť všetky wiki čítať, nie však upravovať.
- V streda 1 marca 2023 Vám nemusí byť funkčné upravovanie v trvaní do 1 hodiny.
- Ak sa počas tejto doby pokúsite upravovať alebo úpravy ukladať, zobrazí sa vám hlásenie o chybe. Dúfame, že počas týchto minút nedôjde k strate žiadnych editácií, nemôžeme to však zaručiť. Ak uvidíte hlásene o chybe, počkajte prosím kým sa všetko nevráti do normálu. Potom by ste mali byť schopný uložiť svoje úpravy. Doporučujeme však, aby ste si najskôr urobili kópiu vašich úprav, len pre istotu.
Ďalšie dôsledky:
- Úlohy na pozadí budú pomalšie a niektoré môžu byť vynechané. Červené odkazy sa môžu aktualizovať pomalšie než zvyčajne. Ak vytvoríte článok, ktorý má už odkaz niekde inde, odkaz zostane červený dlhšie než zvyčajne. Niektoré dlho bežiace skripty budú musieť byť zastavené.
- Predpokladáme, že nasadzovanie nového kódu bude prebiehať tak ako v každom týždni. V jednotlivých prípadoch však môže dôjsť k zamrznutiu kódu, pokiaľ ich operácia neskôr vyžaduje.
- GitLab bude asi 90 minút nedostupný.

As follow-up to the message about the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines by Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Vice Chair, Shani Evenstein Sigalov, I am reaching out about the next steps. I want to bring your attention to the next stage of the Universal Code of Conduct process, which is forming a building committee for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C). I invite community members with experience and deep interest in community health and governance to nominate themselves to be part of the U4C building committee, which needs people who are:
- Community members in good standing
- Knowledgeable about movement community processes, such as, but not limited to, policy drafting, participatory decision making, and application of existing rules and policies on Wikimedia projects
- Aware and appreciative of the diversity of the movement, such as, but not limited to, languages spoken, identity, geography, and project type
- Committed to participate for the entire U4C Building Committee period from mid-May - December 2023
- Comfortable with engaging in difficult, but productive conversations
- Confidently able to communicate in English
The Building Committee shall consist of volunteer community members, affiliate board or staff, and Wikimedia Foundation staff.
The Universal Code of Conduct has been a process strengthened by the skills and knowledge of the community and I look forward to what the U4C Building Committee creates. If you are interested in joining the Building Committee, please either sign up on the Meta-Wiki page, or contact ucocproject wikimedia.org by May 12, 2023. Read more on Meta-Wiki.

Invitation to participate in the #WPWPCampaign 2023
upraviťDear Wikimedians,
We are glad to inform you that the 2023 edition of Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos campaign is coming up in July.
This is a formal invitation to invite individuals and communities to join the campaign to help improve Wikipedia articles with photos and other relevant media files.
If you're interested in participating, please find your community or community closer to you to participate from the Participating Communities page. If you're organizer, please add your community or Affiliate to the page.
The campaign primarily aims to promote using images from Wikimedia Commons to enrich Wikipedia articles. Participants will choose among Wikipedia pages without photos, 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. In this edition of the campaign, eligibility criteria have been revised based on feedback and campaign Evaluation Reports of the previous editions. Please find more details about these changes and our FAQ on Meta-Wiki
For more information, please visit the campaign page on Meta-Wiki.
Kind regards,
Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos International Team.

Also, if you'd like ask our team anything, if you have questions, concerns, or additional thoughts, please ping me here or write on the talk page of the project. We will also gladly answer! See our FAQ. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (diskusia) 03:14, 22. september 2022 (UTC)
- @MNadzikiewicz (WMF): As I have written already, to me the skin has more disadvantages than advantages and I doubt I will use it as my default. The biggest drawback for me is the disorganized interwiki links: having the listed on the side in alphabetical order makes navigation very easy. Clicking on a drop-down menu with unintuitive ordering makes navigation a lot slower. I hardly use the table of content (much less frequently than interwikis). Has any research been done on this wiki? Did you look at the interwiki problem? If the new skin makes tool-scrolling 16% better but interwiki scrolling 60% worse (for example), I do not think the changes are worth it.--Jetam2 (diskusia) 06:54, 22. september 2022 (UTC)
- @Jetam2, thanks for the engagement! Let me ping @SGrabarczuk (WMF), as the person responsible for this. Cheers! MNadzikiewicz (WMF) (diskusia) 02:37, 23. september 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @Jetam2. Thank you for your comment.
- We've been working on this skin since 2019; it's been the default on some wikis since 2020. Statistically, in its current state, it is a net improvement already. But there are some tradeoffs that won't work for everyone. We're still working on some details. On your side, currently, you may easily opt-out and never see the skin again. We won't disable Vector legacy. You may also switch back and forth between the skins. You can configure Vector 2022. So, there are many options, and you may change your mind whenever you want.
- We've done research on a number of wikis, close to 30. These were small and big projects, Wikipedias and sister projects, LTR and RTL scripts - all the variety.
- Regarding the language switching:
- The primary goal for moving the list to a button at the top of the page was the problem of readers not knowing that interwiki exist. They would search, say, Carpathians in Slovak instead of going straight to sk:Karpaty. You can learn more about that on this page.
- The sorting itself is, I admit, arbitrary. That's because there's no Universally Working Solution. Our colleagues, the Language team, have found out that this method is just good enough. In some cases, all you need to do is to type the language code in the language menu search widget, eg.
pl
orcs
. - Based on a discussion with some members of the Russian and Ukrainian-language communities, we're considering three other options to keep the button but also make it easier for users like you. You can take part in the discussion here.
- SGrabarczuk (WMF) (diskusia) 16:51, 23. september 2022 (UTC)
- @SGrabarczuk (WMF): I would be interested in knowing that the set up for interwiki links works. In my humble view, a list is definitely easier to spot than a button. After the skin became default here I wasted no time in setting it back. After white I forgot about it until the other day I was looking for something on a work computer. Eventhough I am a seasoned user and knew what to look for it took me around 2 seconds to find the interwiki button. How does that work for first time visitors? Are they actually clicking faster or finding the links faster?--Jetam2 (diskusia) 14:02, 18. november 2022 (UTC)
- @Jetam2, yes! It's not even about first-time visitors, but about occasional users, too. Most of them weren't even aware of the existence of interwiki links. Read more on the page about the feature, and see the user testing report. Languages are described almost at the end. SGrabarczuk (WMF) (diskusia) 16:36, 21. november 2022 (UTC)

- @SGrabarczuk (WMF): The study says „Almost all of the readers were unable to understand the purpose of the main menu section and did not find it to be relevant.“ (41) but does not elaborate. The report also says „Most of the readers could understand the terminology and concept of Languages. They were unaware that they had an option of changing the Language within the article.“ (80) Has this been solved by moving the language section and making it even more obscure? „Most of the readers who explored Languages were unaware about this feature and had not seen it before.“ Do they see it better now? The study was conducted only on English Wikipedia and in person in Pune, India. Perhaps there was other research done but a major global change should hardly be based on a local study like this. From the page you linked: „In July 2021, we moved the language button to a more convenient location at the top of the page. However, the results of our A/B test indicated that the new location of the button might be difficult to discover“. Over a year ago, there was an idea that the new location is a problem and there does not seem to be any new development since. Why should the language switching even be a button when you can have all the links displayed and seen within virtually no time. Why is there a need to hide the links and make users look for languages which considerably slows the process down?--Jetam2 (diskusia) 14:26, 22. november 2022 (UTC)
- Hey @Jetam2 — to recap and clarify, there are two separate challenges/goals here:
- 1) Help people discover interlanguage links
- 2) Help people find the specific interlanguage link they want
- Regarding the first challenge/goal: the simple user testing we did (link) gave us initial confidence that a button at the top of the page (near the article title), is more discoverable than a list of links in the sidebar. People were able to find the button about three times faster than the list of links. Once we launched the feature we began collecting data from our pilot wikis for confirmation, however because people were switching between pilot wikis (Vector 2022), and non-pilot wikis (Legacy Vector), we were unable to get usable data (i.e. because the language links would move from one location to another). In other words, in the short term while some wikis were using Vector 2022 and others were using Legacy Vector we introduced some confusion about where language links were, which meant that any data was not useful. Now that Vector 2022 is deployed on most wikis we are going to circle back and collect usable data. If we find that the language links are less discoverable than they are in Legacy Vector we will revisit the styling of the button, and potentially the location. We've also sketched out other options, which you can see here: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T301787.
- Regarding the second challenge/goal: contrary to what @SGrabarczuk (WMF) said before, the order of the language links in the menu is not arbitrary. I am including the design rationale which was originally provided in this discussion (link) by @Pginer-WMF, who is the designer on the language team:
- The language selector uses different clues to figure out which are the recommended languages. Although different factors are considered, those are prioritized. For example, top priority is based on the previous selections. That is, a user that frequently reads in French, Japanese and Igbo would get those always in their suggestions for pages available in those languages. Similarly, the browser languages are considered next if it was not possible to fill the suggestions with the previous criteria. Additional criteria can be considered in cases where it is hard to fill the suggestions because of the languages in which content is available (something which will vary significantly from page to page).Some of the criteria based on location or relation to content may need some polishing in some cases (data is based on CLDR and can be improved). In any case, as mentioned above, for a user that speaks and uses a given set of languages, in practical terms the suggestions are going to surface those (even if some of the additional suggestions are sub-optimal at times). In contrast, with the classical approach of a flat list, a speaker of a language with low Wikipedia coverage would have to scan long lists of languages to find whether the content is available in theirs (which may not be in mosts cases), and they would have to do that every single time without the system making it easier after the first try.
- More detail about the criteria for suggested languages is described in more detail here.
- Does that help to clarify our thought process here? Please let me know what you think and if you have additional questions. Thanks, AHollender (WMF) (diskusia) 19:36, 22. november 2022 (UTC)
- @SGrabarczuk (WMF): Have you been able to collect the data you talked about earlier „Now that Vector 2022 is deployed on most wikis we are going to circle back and collect usable data.“? Thanks!--Jetam2 (diskusia) 21:54, 27. január 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @Jetam2, thanks for pinging me! Last week, we deployed Vector 2022 on English Wikipedia. Personally, I think this may be a game-changer. Since then, we have run some queries concerning enwiki specifically, but it's too soon to collect this particular data. This is because people are still getting accustomed to the new interface. So now, we mostly have data about things strictly related to the deployment, for example new accounts created mostly for the purpose of setting the old skin in preferences. (Looks like this is a number equivalent to the number of accounts normally created in about 4 days.) I will make a note to publish this in one project update, preferably.

- @SGrabarczuk (WMF): Perhaps there is data now?--Jetam2 (diskusia) 08:15, 23. apríl 2023 (UTC)
- @SGrabarczuk (WMF): Any update? --Jetam2 (diskusia) 17:24, 30. máj 2023 (UTC)

MinT Machine Translation added to your Wikipedia
upraviťDobrý deň!
Apologies as this message is not in your language, ⧼Please help translate⧽ to your language.
The WMF Language team has added another machine translation (MT) system for Content Translation in your Wikipedia called MinT; you can use MinT machine translation when translating Wikipedia articles using the Content and Section Translation tool.
The WMF Language team provides the MinT service. It is hosted in the Wikimedia Foundation Infrastructure with neural machine translation models that other organizations have released with an open-source license. MinT integrates translation based on NLLB-200, OpusMT, IndicTrans2 and Softcatalà. This MT is set as optional in your Wikipedia. Still, you can choose not to use it by selecting "Start with empty paragraph" from the "Initial Translation" dropdown menu.
Since MinT is hosted in the WMF Infrastructure and the models are open source, it adheres to Wikipedia's policies about attribution of rights, your privacy as a user and brand representation. You can find more information about the MinT machine translation and the models on this page.
Please note that the use of the MinT MT is not compulsory. However, we would want your community to:
- use it to improve the quality of the Machine Translation service
- provide feedback about its quality, and if you prefer the MinT machine translation as default in your Wikipedia.
We trust that introducing this MT is a good support to the Content Translation tool.
Thank you!

upraviťHello all,
I am pleased to share the next step in the Universal Code of Conduct work. The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) draft charter is now ready for your review.
The Enforcement Guidelines require a Building Committee form to draft a charter that outlines procedures and details for a global committee to be called the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C). Over the past few months, the U4C Building Committee worked together as a group to discuss and draft the U4C charter. The U4C Building Committee welcomes feedback about the draft charter now through 22 September 2023. After that date, the U4C Building Committee will revise the charter as needed and a community vote will open shortly afterward.
