Movement Learning and Leadership Development Project

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!

Wikisource Conference in Warsaw

Dear Wikisource Community,

Meeting the Wikisource community expectations, we are working with Wikimedia Polska and Wikimedia Foundation on organiziing the 2nd Wikisource Conference in Warsaw. We already had a survey that showed high interest in the Conference within the community. We also had recently a meeting on the conference organization process and its requirements. However, we are still at a very early stage of the Conference organization process. But we are hoping this event will happen in September this year.

In order to apply for Wikimedia Foundation support, we need some input from the community about the Conference goals and the community expectations. If you are a wikisourcian, you wish to participate the conference or you wish to help the Wikisource community that the conference take place, please fill the short survey linked below before January 29 (due to short deadline for grant applications). Please, also share this request among Your communities. Here is the link to the survey

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf7FnFgMLPHeyWtBqjgXwLDYvh5vxeTnsZ0OIjTdSDrZlX0PA/viewform

Feel free to contact us, if you have any questions, suggestions, proposals, or if you wish to help us in any other way.

On behalf of the Organizing Commitee,

Nicolas Vigneron

Additional interface for edit conflicts on talk pages

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) 2020. február 26., 15:15 (CET)[válasz]

József Attila műfordítások

Jól értelmezem a szerzői jogi törvényt, hogy ha a forrás alkotó elhalálozása +70 feltétel teljesül, akkor a származékos mű -tehát József Attila által magyarra fordított vers- is közkincs? Mugli (vita) 2020. március 21., 12:53 (CET)[válasz]

@Mugli: Mind az eredeti szerzőnek, mind a fordítónak keletkezik szerzői joga (Szjt. 4. § (2) bek.). Mivel József Attila több mint 70 éve elhunyt, az ő esetében tényleg csak az eredeti mű szerzőjét illető szerzői jog érvényesül, tehát ha az eredeti szerző is legalább 70 éve meghalt, akkor valóban közkincs a fordítás. Ha a fordító kevesebb mint 70 halt meg, akkor őt is ugyanúgy védi a szerzői jog, mint az eredeti szerzőt. (Persze a csak akkor, ha a fordításnak is egyéni, eredeti jellege van, de egy műfordításnak mindenképpen van.) – Tacsipacsi (vita) 2020. március 21., 13:32 (CET)[válasz]

Community Tech Launches Wikisource Improvement Initiative

This message is in English, but we encourage translation into other languages. Thank you!

Hello everyone,

We hope you are all healthy and safe in these difficult times.

The Community Tech team has just launched a new initiative to improve Wikisource. We will be addressing five separate wishes, which came out of the 2020 Community Wishlist Survey, and we want you to be a part of the process! The projects include the following:

For the first project, the team will focus on the #1 wish: improve ebook exports. We have created a project page, which includes an analysis of the ebook export process. We now invite everyone to visit the page and share their feedback on the project talk page. Please let us know what you think of our analysis; we want to hear from all of you! Furthermore, we hope that you will participate in the other Wikisource improvement projects, which we’ll address in the future. Thank you in advance and we look forward to reading your feedback on the ebook export improvement talk page!

Feedback on movement names

Hello. Apologies if you are not reading this message in your native language. Segíts lefordítani a saját nyelvedre if necessary. Köszönjük!

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, 2020. július 2., 21:39 (CEST)

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.

Feedback requested: Ebook Export Improvement Project

Note: This message is in English, but we encourage translation into other languages. Thank you!

Hello, everyone!

I am pleased to announce that the Community Tech team at WMF has posted our August update on the Wikisource Ebook Export Improvement project! This project came out of our 2020 Community Wishlist Survey, and it was the #1 wish voted on by survey participants.

So, what does this mean? In short, we want your feedback! Now that we have posted the August update, we want to know what you think. The update includes findings from our community consultation, results from two separate analyses conducted by the team (on improving WSExport reliability & font rendering support), and proposed next steps. It is our hope that people can read our analysis, share their feedback, and engage in a conversation with us on the talk page. Your feedback will be invaluable, and it will help determine the next steps of the project.

Thank you to everyone who has participated in the consultation so far! It's been a joy to explore how we can improve the ebook export experience. Now, we look forward to reading a new round of feedback on the project talk page!

Wikisource Pagelist Widget: Ready to be enabled

Note: This message is in English, but we encourage translation into other languages. Thank you!

Hello everyone,

We are excited to announce that the Wikisource Pagelist widget is now available to be enabled on all Wikisources. Any interface admin on your wiki can enable it by using the instructions on the following page:

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:ProofreadPage/Pagelist_widget

In case, your wiki doesn’t have an interface admin, reach out to us on the ‘Help with enabling the widget on your wiki’ section of the project talk page and we will connect you with a global interface admin:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikisource_Pagelist_Widget#Help_with_enabling_the_widget_on_your_wiki

You will need to hold a local discussion around what would be the labels for different page types in your language for the visual mode. (For example, ToC = ਤਤਕਰਾ in Punjabi, title = শিরোনাম in Bengali)

Feel free to also give us any feedback on the project talk page on Meta-Wiki as well.

Regards

Sohom Datta

Wikisource Pagelist Widget: Wikisource Meetup (29th September 2020)

Hello everyone,

We hope you are doing well!

We reached out to you a couple of weeks ago to share that Wikisource Pagelist Widget is now ready to be enabled to Wikisource. Since then, many language Wikisources have enabled the widget but many are yet to do so.

So, we have decided to organize a Wikisource Meetup to give a live demonstration on how to use the widget in both wikitext and visual modes. There will be some time for the participants to share their feedback and experience with the widget. We will also provide support in case some Wikisource communities are seeking help in enabling the widget.

The meetup will take place on 29 September 2020 at 9:30 AM UTC or 3 PM IST. Google Meet link for the meeting is: http://meet.google.com/khu-dfph-qsd

Looking forward to seeing the global Wikisource community connect amid these difficult times when physical meetings have not been taking place.

P.S. If you are planning to attend this meetup and are comfortable in sharing your email address then send us your confirmation in the form of a small email to sgill@wikimedia.org, this will help us in getting a sense of the number of people that are planning to show-up. We are aware that this time-zone is not convenient for everyone and more meetups can be organized in the future.

Regards

Sohom, Sam and Satdeep

Petőfi Sándor versei (szünet jel és keletkezési körülmény szedési eltérések)

Petőfi Sándor Összes költeményei kötetből (1974, Szépirodalmi Könyvkiadó, Budapest; ISBN 963 15 0043 8) ellenőriztem egy már meglévő verset, A magyarok istenét (923-24. oldal). Ez karakterre stimmelt szünetet jelző pontokat leszámítva:

A „....” részletet leszámítva. Azon központozást ugyanis „...”-al szedték ebben a kötetben. Ami szerintem különbözik a hármasponttól ().

Valamint a vers végi keletkezési helység és dátum is egy kicsit eltérő formában került szedésre ezen kiadásnál: „(Pest), (1848. április)”

Ilyenkor mi a teendő? Megítélésem szerint ezek nem érintik a szöveg minőségét olyan nagy mértékben. Ha ezen kérdés megválaszolódik átállítanám a szövegminőséget 100%-ra. Ez így elfogadható?

Novemberi szerzők

Novemberben számos új szerzőlap lett létrehozva részben LinguisticMystic, részben anonok által (ld. FV). Ezen szerzők többségének nincs fent műve, egy részüknek pedig sokáig nem is lesz (Dobozi Eszter művei, felteszem, nagyon sokára lesznek közkincsek). Biztos, hogy kellenek ezek a lapok? Máté (vita) 2020. december 2., 08:13 (CET)[válasz]

Szia, azért mert nem közkincs, még a szerzőnek lehet lapja, nem? Lehet hogy a művei máshol elérhetőek amit innen be lehet linkelni, bár a műveit ide nem másolhatjuk fel szerzői jogok miatt LinguisticMystic (vita) 2020. december 2., 13:50 (CET)[válasz]
