De Wikimedia Foundation zoekt een Directeur Enquête-oproep voor de Vrijwilligersgemeenschap

De Raad van Bestuur van de Wikimedia Foundation heeft een commissie ingesteld die verantwoordelijk is voor het vinden van een nieuwe directeur. Een van de eerste taken van de commissie is het opstellen van een functieomschrijving voor de directeur, waarvoor we de Wikimedia-gemeenschap graag om input willen vragen. We zouden het op prijs stellen als je de tijd kunt nemen om deze enquête in te vullen. Het helpt ons inzicht te krijgen in wat de vrijwilligersgemeenschap en de betaalde medewerkers verwachten van de directeur van de Wikimedia Foundation.

• enquête in te vullen (Qualtrics)

Bij voorbaat dank,

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• Notifications were not always marked as read when you followed a link from an email notification. This will now happen. [11]

Changes this week

• The list of other languages an article is available in will be shorter on small Wikipedias and non-Wikipedia projects. This is to make it easier to find the most relevant languages for each user. You will still be able to see the other languages. [12][13]
• Alerts (the red badge) will not be automatically marked as read when you open the Notifications popup. [14]
• When you get several thanks you can see them as one notification. This is instead of one notification for each thanks. [15]
• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 June. It will be on all wikis from 23 June (calendar).

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the Architecture committee. The topic this week is develop Markdown support strategy for MediaWiki. The meeting will be on 22 June at 21:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Tech News: 2016-26

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• The ORES service has now moved to a new location. This should make it easier to use ORES. The ORES review service is now available as a beta feature on Wikidata and Persian Wikipedia. ORES is an artificial intelligence system for Wikimedia wikis to help editors. [16]
• The order of wikis in collapsed cross-wiki notifications was different than when the list was expanded. This is now fixed. [17]
• A new category for tracking pages with math errors was added: Categorie:Wikipedia:Pagina's met fouten in wiskundige formules. [18]

Problems

• The Wikimedia Etherpad crashed on June 23. Some edits done that day have been lost. They can be found at etherpad-restore.wikimedia.org for another few days. [19][20]

Changes this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 June. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 June. It will be on all wikis from 30 June (calendar).
• The way to mark notifications as read or unread will be changed to be more clear. [21]

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 28 June at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• The Collaboration team at the Wikimedia Foundation will look at developing better tools for edit review. This is because research suggests we scare away newcomers who want to help. [22]
• An e-mail from the Editing Department explains the technical work that is planned and being researched for the future. Items include better wikitext and visual editing, prompts for edits, language improvements, annotations, and meta-data separation. [23]
• The sorting of Notifications into the two fly-out menus is going to change on July 5 to 7. Bundled notifications should be easier to explore and mark as read individually. [24][25][26]
• From 29 June git.wikimedia.org (running Gitblit) will redirect all requests to Phabricator. The vast majority of requests should be correctly redirected. [27]
• Catalan and Polish Wikipedias will have Wikidata descriptions added to articles in the mobile view by default. This is currently a beta option for the mobile versions. This might come to other wikis later. [28]
