Mga nominasyon (Nominations)
[baguhin]Sky Harbor
[baguhin]Nais ko pong mag-nominate ng aking sarili sa pagkatagapangasiwa para sa kabutihan ng ating komunidad at para sa buong Tagalog Wikibooks. Tulad ng aking paglilingkod sa Tagalog Wiktionary, ako po ay maglilingkod dito sa paraang patas at husto.
I wish to nominate myself for adminship for the betterment of our community and for the whole Tagalog Wikibooks. Like my service at the Tagalog Wiktionary, I will serve here in a fair and just manner. --Sky Harbor 02:07, 9 Agosto 2007 (UTC)
Babala po sa lahat ng Pilipinong nagbabasa ng Wikipidya at Wikibooks
[baguhin]Maraming mga internet troll at cyberbully (non-Filipinos and/or Filipinos) ang naglalagay po ng kabalabalan sa mga pahina, stub, at artikulo po. Mag-ingat po kayong mga baguhan sa Internet. isang maliit na komento ni Zollerriia 07:41, 14 Mayo 2011 (UTC)
Tagapangasiwa
[baguhin]Gusto kong malaman ninyo na minungkahi ko ang pagiging Tagapangasiwa ng proyektong ito sa Meta.
Dahilan:
- Upang kalabanin ang mga bandalo
- Pagpapanatili ng wiking ito sa magandang kalagayan
-- Felipe Aira 02:24, 30 Nobyembre 2007 (UTC)
I would like you to know that I requested Administrator access in this project from Meta.
Reasons:
- To fight vandals
- Maintaining this wiki in good status
-- Felipe Aira 02:24, 30 Nobyembre 2007 (UTC)
Why did you not go for bureaucrat?? Carsrac 20:04, 16 Abril 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, I applied for bureacratship at first, then I planned to give myself admin powers afterwards. However the metastewards denied it. So I just applied for adminship, which they've accepted. -- Felipe Aira 03:47, 17 Abril 2008 (UTC)
Halalan para sa pagiging permanente ng aking nabalisang karapatan sa pangangasiwa
[baguhin]Simple lang ito, gusto niyo pa bang patagalin ang pagiging tagapangasiwa ko o hindi. -- Felipe Aira 10:32, 1 Marso 2008 (UTC)
Sang-ayon(2)
[baguhin]- Ang pagboto sa sarili ay hindi unethical, at naniniwala akong kaya kong panatilihin ang wiking ito sa magandang kalagayan mula sa mga mapanirang bandalo. -- Felipe Aira 10:32, 1 Marso 2008 (UTC)
- Dahil mas committed ka sa Wikibooks kaysa sa akin, marapat lang na manatili ka bilang tagapangasiwa nito. (Because you're more committed to Wikibooks than me, it is only right that you remain as its administrator.) --Sky Harbor 23:31, 1 Marso 2008 (UTC)
Tutol(0)
[baguhin]Wikiklat habang maaga pa
[baguhin]Tinatawagan ko ang lahat na bumoto para sa pagpapalit-pangalan ng wiking ito papuntang "Wikiklat", isang pagsasanib ng mga salitang "wiki" at [a]"klat".
Sang-ayon(1)
[baguhin]Tumututol(1)
[baguhin]- Parang hindi natural ang tinig ng "Wikiklat". Parang mas maganda pa rin ang "Wikilibros" o mas magandang pangalan na katutubo. --Sky Harbor 00:23, 17 Pebrero 2008 (UTC)
- Ang Wikilibros ay kastila at mas angkop sa Wikibooks na Espanyol. -- Felipe Aira 12:06, 17 Pebrero 2008 (UTC)
- Wala bang ibang katutubong alternatibo? --Sky Harbor 13:04, 17 Pebrero 2008 (UTC)
- Sa tingin ko ay aklat lamang. Hindi naman kasi ganoong kayaman ang salitaan ng wikang Tagalog. -- Felipe Aira 10:13, 18 Pebrero 2008 (UTC)
- Mas nararapat siguro na gamitin ang Wikiaklat. Starczamora 06:00, 22 Marso 2008 (UTC)
- Sa tingin ko ay aklat lamang. Hindi naman kasi ganoong kayaman ang salitaan ng wikang Tagalog. -- Felipe Aira 10:13, 18 Pebrero 2008 (UTC)

- Ang Wikilibros ay kastila at mas angkop sa Wikibooks na Espanyol. -- Felipe Aira 12:06, 17 Pebrero 2008 (UTC)
- Hindi maganda sa pandinig, mas kailangan natin ng mas maganda at natural sa pandinig. Ukiraneis (makipag-usap) 17:05, 6 Oktubre 2019 (UTC)
Koordinasyon sa Wiktionary
[baguhin](Oo, aktibo na ako muli sa Wikibooks)
Dahil sa maraming bagong salitang kinakawing sa Wiktionary na hindi umiiral doon, maaari bang mag-coordinate ang dalawang mga proyekto para sa patuloy na kabutihan ng dalawang mga proyekto? --Sky Harbor 00:26, 17 Pebrero 2008 (UTC)
- Hanggang maaari sana oo, dahil ang ginawa ko rito, lalo na roon sa Florante at Laura lahat ng mga malalalim na salitang karaniwang hindi alam ng pang-araw-araw na mambabasa ay kinawing ko sa Wiktionary, dahil iyon naman talaga ang tootoong pook ng paglalagay ng mga kahulugan. Kaso nga lang, kahit pareho nating gusto ang koordinasyong ito, kakaunti lamang ang mga taong aktibo rito sa mga proyektong Tagalog lalo na riyan sa Wiktionary at Wikibooks. Kaya kung mangyayari man iyon matagal pa siguro at hindi ngayon. Kulang tayo sa tao! Sana maengganyo natin ang mga tao roon sa Wikipedyang sumali sa Wiktionary at Wikibooks. -- Felipe Aira 12:02, 17 Pebrero 2008 (UTC)
Mali ang "search this book" link
[baguhin]May box na "Mga kagamitan" sa Unang Pahina, at doon may link na "Search this book", pero ang link ay nagtuturo sa "en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unang_Pahina". Dapat ipalit sa "tl" iyong "en", di ba? --Gronky 17:58, 20 Abril 2008 (UTC)
Cookbook
[baguhin]Kailangan lahat ng mga recipes na nakalagay dito ay ilagay sa isang bagong ngalan-espasyo: ang Cookbook namespace tulad sa Ingles. Wala pa ito sa Tagalog Wikibooks, at pwede itong hilingin sa Bugzilla. --Sky Harbor 14:50, 23 Abril 2008 (UTC)
- Una kailangan muna nating malaman kung ano ang ating tatawagin sa ngalan-espasyo. Kailangan siguro na nating hilingin din ang pagsasalin ng mga ngalan-espasyo batay sa mga salin ng Wikipedya. Pero manggagamit ba o tagagamit? Para sa akin manggamit. Kung sang-ayon po kayo doon paki hiling na lang po kasi hindi ko alam ang proseso roon. Cookbook = "Pagluluto". Oo alam kong hindi masyadong direkta pero sa tingin ko mas maganda iyon kasi natural hindi kagaya ng "Panlutong aklat" o "Lutuing aklat". Ano sa tingin mo? -- Felipe Aira 07:14, 24 Abril 2008 (UTC)
- Wala bang salin sa Tagalog ang cookbook? Baka pwede ang aklat-luto para sa cookbook, pero hindi ko alam. Walang diksyonaryong Tagalog dito sa bahay sa Estados Unidos. --Sky Harbor 00:15, 25 Abril 2008 (UTC)
- Wala pong salin dito sa Padre English. -- Felipe Aira 05:36, 25 Abril 2008 (UTC)
- Baka meron sa diksyonaryong UP, Sagalongos, New Vicassan's, Panganiban o de Guzman. --Sky Harbor 15:56, 26 Abril 2008 (UTC)
- Wala akong ganoon. -- Felipe Aira 16:13, 26 Abril 2008 (UTC)
- Wala rin sa de Guzman, na hindi ko inaakalang meron pala ako. -- Felipe Aira 01:57, 27 Abril 2008 (UTC)
- Kaya maganda minsan na pumunta sa isang bookstore para makatingin sa mga diksyonaryo. Alam kong may kopya ng diksyonaryong Panganiban sa Powerbooks sa Greenbelt 4, pero ayaw kong umasa sa UP o New Vicassan's dahil naka-shrink wrap sila. Hintayin ko na lang ang Hunyo para matingnan ang UP Diksyonaryong Filipino. --Sky Harbor 18:05, 28 Abril 2008 (UTC)
- Ang nakalangay sa Panganiban ay "Aklat ng pagluluto". Nagpunta akong National eh, nakakainis nga wala silang UP Diksyonaryo Filipino. -- Felipe Aira 13:39, 10 Mayo 2008 (UTC)

Bagong ngalan-espasyo
[baguhin]Sumasang-ayon ba kayo sa pagdaragdag ng isa pang ngalan-espasyo (Pagluluto:). Ito ang magiging katumbas ng Cookbook: ng Ingles. Ang aking AiraBot ang magiging bahala sa paglilipat ng mga artikulong pagluluto sa ngalang-espasyong ito, at ako naman ang hihiling nito sa bugzilla:. Sang-ayon? -- Felipe Aira 08:03, 22 Nobyembre 2008 (UTC)
- Tulad ng sabi nila, go do what you need to do. Kailangan naman talaga ng ngalan-espasyo hinggil sa pagluluto. --Sky Harbor 15:42, 29 Disyembre 2008 (UTC)
Unang Pahina
[baguhin]Papalitan ko ang unang pahina batay sa Wikipedya. -- Felipe Aira 13:42, 10 Mayo 2008 (UTC)
- Masyadong drastic ito. Balikan muna ito habang iilan lamang ang mga aklat. Dapat palitan ito kapag may sapat na bilang ng aklat. --Sky Harbor 00:05, 14 Mayo 2008 (UTC)
- Ginawa ko iyon dahil hindi naman tayo makakapaghintay ng isang pasya mula sa isang pamayanang wala naman. At mas maganda na iyon, dahil ipinapakita roon ang tanging aklat na buo at nagbibigay-kaalaman dito sa sayt na ito. Para alam na rin ng mga mambabasa kung ano lang ang maaaring mapagpulutang-aral. -- Felipe Aira 11:12, 14 Mayo 2008 (UTC)
- Haay...eh di ano ang susunod? Ibong Adarna? --Sky Harbor 17:18, 14 Mayo 2008 (UTC)

Bagong malaking hakbang
[baguhin]Ang Wikibooks na ito ang ika-27 na pinakamalaking Wikibooks! Nalagpasan pa natin ang Koreano, Arabo, Payak na Ingles at Norwegong Bokmal! Iyon ang mga higante ng Wikipedia! At ngayon nalagpasan pa natin sila! Napakagaling! Malaking pasasalamat sa lahat ng mga nag-aambag sa Wikibooks upang palawakin ang malayang kaalaman alang-alang sa lahat, at wikang Tagalog! Mabuhay! -- Felipe Aira 14:27, 29 Setyembre 2008 (UTC)
Nominasyon sa pagka-tagapangasiwa
[baguhin]Nais kong makuha ang opinyon ng mga tagagamit dito sa Wikibooks ukol sa aking pagka-tagapangasiwa. Dati akong nagsilbi rito bilang pansamantalang tagapangasiwa hanggang naging permanenteng tagapangasiwa si Felipe Aira, na ikinalulungkot ko ay kasalukuyang hindi na aktibo sa ngayon. Para sa mga walang-alam: ako ay kasalukuyang burokrato sa Tagalog Wikipedia at tagapangasiwa sa Tagalog Wiktionary, kaya nais kong makatulong sa pagpapalinis at muling pagpapaunlad ng proyektong ito.
Maaari pong bumoto sa ibaba. Maraming salamat po. --Sky Harbor 05:19, 11 Mayo 2011 (UTC)
I would like to get the opinion of users here on Wikibooks with regards to my request for adminship. I was once the temporary administrator for this project until Felipe Aira became my permanent replacement, to which I am saddened by the fact that he is currently inactive. For those who do not know: I am currently a bureaucrat on the Tagalog Wikipedia and an administrator on the Tagalog Wiktionary, so I am hoping to be able to help with respect to the cleaning-up and redevelopment of this project.
Please feel free to vote below. Thank you. --Sky Harbor 05:19, 11 Mayo 2011 (UTC)

[baguhin]Pagiging Aktibo nitong Wikibooks
[baguhin]Mayroon pa bang nangangasiwa nitong Wikibooks? Napapansin ko na marami na ring mga vandalismo at mga pahinang nadadagdag. Kulang-kulang rin ang mga padron at hindi maayos ang iba sa mga ito. --Squeekeek (makipag-usap) 13:03, 13 Marso 2016 (UTC)
- Hi!!, maaaring bumoto sa akin sa pagiging tagapangasiwa upang malabanan ang bandalismk sa tagalog wikibooks. Ukiraneis (makipag-usap) 17:22, 6 Oktubre 2019 (UTC)
Kumusta kommunidad! Gumawa ako ng hiling sa Phabricator upang magamit natin ang revision scoring ng Pundasyon ng Wikimedia bilang panlaban sa palagi nating kalaban: bandalismo. Napansin ko na palagi natatamaan ng bandalismo ang Tagalog Wikibooks at iba pang mga wiki na nasa wikang Tagalog (tulad ng Tagalog Wiktionary). Kung magagamit natin itong artificial intelligence na ito, mas magiging mabisa at mabilis ang paglaban natin sa bandalismo.
Walang masamang epekto ang maidudulot ng pagbabagong ito. Oo, puwede magkamali ang AI, pero kung mangyari man, matututo rito ang AI (machine learning sa Ingles). At kung kayo ay nag-aalala na baka tumalikod sa atin ang AI, hindi mangyayari iyon. ;)
Puwede tayo makatulong para maipasa ang pagbabagong ito. Bisitahin niyo ang phab:T149475 (ito yung hiling ko sa Phabricator) para malaman niyo kung paano. Kailangan nila ng tulong natin!
Salamat, Pokéfan95 (makipag-usap) 11:24, 29 Oktubre 2016 (UTC)

[baguhin]I apologise that this message is in English. ⧼Centralnotice-shared-help-translate⧽
We are having a problem with attackers taking over wiki accounts with privileged user rights (for example, admins, bureaucrats, oversighters, checkusers). It appears that this may be because of weak or reused passwords.
Community members are working along with members of multiple teams at the Wikimedia Foundation to address this issue.
In the meantime, we ask that everyone takes a look at the passwords they have chosen for their wiki accounts. If you know that you've chosen a weak password, or if you've chosen a password that you are using somewhere else, please change those passwords.
Select strong passwords – eight or more characters long, and containing letters, numbers, and punctuation. Joe Sutherland (usapan) / MediaWiki message delivery (makipag-usap) 23:59, 13 Nobyembre 2016 (UTC)

We invite you to join the movement strategy conversation (now through April 15)
[baguhin]- This message, "We invite you to join the movement strategy conversation (now through April 15)", was sent through multiple channels by Gregory Varnum on 15 and 16 of March 2017 to village pumps, affiliate talk pages, movement mailing lists, and MassMessage groups. A similar message was sent by Nicole Ebber to organized groups and their mailing lists on 15 of March 2017. This version of the message is available for translation and documentation purposes
Dear Wikimedians/Wikipedians:
Today we are starting a broad discussion to define Wikimedia's future role in the world and develop a collaborative strategy to fulfill that role. You are warmly invited to join the conversation.
There are many ways to participate, by joining an existing conversation or starting your own:
Track A (organized groups): Discussions with your affiliate, committee or other organized group (these are groups that support the Wikimedia movement).
Track B (individual contributors): On Meta or your local language or project wiki.
This is the first of three conversations, and it will run between now and April 15. The purpose of cycle 1 is to discuss the future of the movement and generate major themes around potential directions. What do we want to build or achieve together over the next 15 years?
We welcome you, as we create this conversation together, and look forward to broad and diverse participation from all parts of our movement.
- Find out more about the movement strategy process
- Learn more about volunteering to be a Discussion Coordinator

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-electionswikimedia.org.
On behalf of the Election Committee,
Katie Chan, Chair, Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee

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
[baguhin]Birgit Müller (WMDE) 14:41, 8 Mayo 2017 (UTC)
Editing News #1—2017
[baguhin]Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
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
[baguhin]- 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 Mga kategorya item has been moved to the top of the Mga kagustuhan ng pahina 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 Natatanging panitik 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
+K
on a PC, orCommand
+Shift
+K
on a Mac. It is based on the keyboard shortcut for making links, which isControl
+K
orCommand
+K
respectively. [11]
Future changes
[baguhin]- The team is working on a syntax highlighting tool. It will highlight matching pairs of

The Wikimedia movement strategy core team and working groups have completed reviewing the more than 1800 thematic statements we received from the first discussion. They have identified 5 themes that were consistent across all the conversations - each with their own set of sub-themes. These are not the final themes, just an initial working draft of the core concepts.
You are invited to join the online and offline discussions taking place on these 5 themes. This round of discussions will take place between now and June 12th. You can discuss as many as you like; we ask you to participate in the ones that are most (or least) important to you.
Here are the five themes, each has a page on Meta-Wiki with more information about the theme and how to participate in that theme's discussion:
- Healthy, Inclusive Communities
- The Augmented Age
- A Truly Global Movement
- The Most Respected Source of Knowledge
- Engaging in the Knowledge Ecosystem
On the movement strategy portal on Meta-Wiki, you can find more information about each of these themes, their discussions, and how to participate.

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, 27 Hulyo 2017 (UTC)

[baguhin]New print to pdf feature for mobile web readers
[baguhin]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.
Thank you!

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. Their work board 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, and improving the visual diff tool.
Recent changes
[baguhin]- 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
[baguhin]- 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.

New user group for editing sitewide CSS / JS
[baguhin](Please help translate to your language)
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
[baguhin](Please help translate to your language)
Hi all,
as announced previously, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed: only members of the interface-admin
(Interface administrators) 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!

Read-only mode for up to an hour on 12 September and 10 October
[baguhin]Read this message in another language • Please help translate to your language
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)

Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has wrapped up most of their work on the 2017 wikitext editor and the visual diff tool. The team has begun investigating the needs of editors who use mobile devices. Their work board is available in Phabricator. Their current priorities are fixing bugs and improving mobile editing.
Recent changes
[baguhin]- The Editing team has published an initial report about mobile editing.
- The Editing team has begun a design study of visual editing on the mobile website. New editors have trouble doing basic tasks on a smartphone, such as adding links to Wikipedia articles. You can read the report.
- The Reading team is working on a separate mobile-based contributions project.
- The 2006 wikitext editor is no longer supported. If you used that toolbar, then you will no longer see any toolbar. You may choose another editing tool in your editing preferences, local gadgets, or beta features.
- The Editing team described the history and status of VisualEditor in this recorded public presentation (starting at 29 minutes, 30 seconds).
- The Language team released a new version of Content Translation (CX2) last month, on International Translation Day. It integrates the visual editor to support templates, tables, and images. It also produces better wikitext when the translated article is published. [18]

Change coming to how certain templates will appear on the mobile web
[baguhin]Change coming to how certain templates will appear on the mobile web
Please help translate to your language
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.
Thank you!

FileExporter beta feature
[baguhin]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.

Talk to us about talking
[baguhin]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.

Did you know?
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
[baguhin]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
[baguhin]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
[baguhin]- 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

Update on the consultation about office actions
[baguhin]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, 16 Agosto 2019 (UTC)
New tools and IP masking
[baguhin]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.

The consultation on partial and temporary Foundation bans just started
[baguhin]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!

[baguhin]Feedback wanted on Desktop Improvements project
[baguhin]Please help translate to your language
Hello. The Readers Web team at the WMF will work on some improvements to the desktop interface over the next couple of years. The goal is to increase usability without removing any functionality. We have been inspired by changes made by volunteers, but that currently only exist as local gadgets and user scripts, prototypes, and volunteer-led skins. We would like to begin the process of bringing some of these changes into the default experience on all Wikimedia projects.
We are currently in the research stage of this project and are looking for ideas for improvements, as well as feedback on our current ideas and mockups. So far, we have performed interviews with community members at Wikimania. We have gathered lists of previous volunteer and WMF work in this area. We are examining possible technical approaches for such changes.
We would like individual feedback on the following:
- Identifying focus areas for the project we have not yet discovered
- Expanding the list of existing gadgets and user scripts that are related to providing a better desktop experience. If you can think of some of these from your wiki, please let us know
- Feedback on the ideas and mockups we have collected so far
We would also like to gather a list of wikis that would be interested in being test wikis for this project - these wikis would be the first to receive the updates once we’re ready to start building.
When giving feedback, please consider the following goals of the project:
- Make it easier for readers to focus on the content
- Provide easier access to everyday actions (e.g. search, language switching, editing)
- Put things in logical and useful places
- Increase consistency in the interface with other platforms - mobile web and the apps
- Eliminate clutter
- Plan for future growth
As well as the following constraints:
- Not touching the content - no work will be done in terms of styling templates or to the structure of page contents themselves
- Not removing any functionality - things might move around, but all navigational items and other functionality currently available by default will remain
- No drastic changes to the layout - we're taking an evolutionary approach to the changes and want the site to continue feeling familiar to readers and editors
Please give all feedback (in any language) at mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements
After this round of feedback, we plan on building a prototype of suggested changes based on the feedback we receive. You’ll hear from us again asking for feedback on this prototype.
Thank you! Quiddity (WMF) (talk)

Editing News #2 – Mobile editing and talk pages
[baguhin]Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
Inside this newsletter, the Editing team talks about their work on the mobile visual editor, on the new talk pages project, and at Wikimania 2019.
Help
[baguhin]What talk page interactions do you remember? Is it a story about how someone helped you to learn something new? Is it a story about how someone helped you get involved in a group? Something else? Whatever your story is, we want to hear it!
Please tell us a story about how you used a talk page. Please share a link to a memorable discussion, or describe it on the talk page for this project. The team wants your examples. These examples will help everyone develop a shared understanding of what this project should support and encourage.
Talk pages project
[baguhin]The Talk Pages Consultation was a global consultation to define better tools for wiki communication. From February through June 2019, more than 500 volunteers on 20 wikis, across 15 languages and multiple projects, came together with members of the Foundation to create a product direction for a set of discussion tools. The Phase 2 Report of the Talk Page Consultation was published in August. It summarizes the product direction the team has started to work on, which you can read more about here: Talk Page Project project page.
The team needs and wants your help at this early stage. They are starting to develop the first idea. Please add your name to the "Getting involved" section of the project page, if you would like to hear about opportunities to participate.
Mobile visual editor
[baguhin]The Editing team is trying to make it simpler to edit on mobile devices. The team is changing the visual editor on mobile. If you have something to say about editing on a mobile device, please leave a message at Talk:VisualEditor on mobile.
- On 3 September, the Editing team released version 3 of Edit Cards. Anyone could use the new version in the mobile visual editor.
- There is an updated design on the Edit Card for adding and modifying links. There is also a new, combined workflow for editing a link's display text and target.
- Feedback: You can try the new Edit Cards by opening the mobile visual editor on a smartphone. Please post your feedback on the Edit cards talk page.
- In September, the Editing team updated the mobile visual editor's editing toolbar. Anyone could see these changes in the mobile visual editor.
- One toolbar: All of the editing tools are located in one toolbar. Previously, the toolbar changed when you clicked on different things.
- New navigation: The buttons for moving forward and backward in the edit flow have changed.
- Seamless switching: an improved workflow for switching between the visual and wikitext modes.
- Feedback: You can try the refreshed toolbar by opening the mobile VisualEditor on a smartphone. Please post your feedback on the Toolbar feedback talk page.
Wikimania
[baguhin]The Editing Team attended Wikimania 2019 in Sweden. They led a session on the mobile visual editor and a session on the new talk pages project. They tested two new features in the mobile visual editor with contributors. You can read more about what the team did and learned in the team's report on Wikimania 2019.
Looking ahead
[baguhin]- Talk Pages Project: The team is thinking about the first set of proposed changes. The team will be working with a few communities to pilot those changes. The best way to stay informed is by adding your username to the list on the project page: Getting involved.
- Testing the mobile visual editor as the default: The Editing team plans to post results before the end of the calendar year. The best way to stay informed is by adding the project page to your watchlist: VisualEditor as mobile default project page.
- Measuring the impact of Edit Cards: This study asks whether the project helped editors add links and citations. The Editing team hopes to share results in November. The best way to stay informed is by adding the project page to your watchlist: Edit Cards project page.
