Request for comment on Commons: Should Wikimedia support MP4 video?[编辑]

I apologize for this message being only in English. Please translate it if needed to help your community.

The Wikimedia Foundation's multimedia team seeks community guidance on a proposal to support the MP4 video format. This digital video standard is used widely around the world to record, edit and watch videos on mobile phones, desktop computers and home video devices. It is also known as H.264/MPEG-4 or AVC.

Supporting the MP4 format would make it much easier for our users to view and contribute video on Wikipedia and Wikimedia projects -- and video files could be offered in dual formats on our sites, so we could continue to support current open formats (WebM and Ogg Theora).

However, MP4 is a patent-encumbered format, and using a proprietary format would be a departure from our current practice of only supporting open formats on our sites -- even though the licenses appear to have acceptable legal terms, with only a small fee required.

We would appreciate your guidance on whether or not to support MP4. Our Request for Comments presents views both in favor and against MP4 support, based on opinions we’ve heard in our discussions with community and team members.

Please join this RfC -- and share your advice.

All users are welcome to participate, whether you are active on Commons, Wikipedia, other Wikimedia project -- or any site that uses content from our free media repository.

You are also welcome to join tomorrow's Office hours chat on IRC, this Thursday, January 16, at 19:00 UTC, if you would like to discuss this project with our team and other community members.

We look forward to a constructive discussion with you, so we can make a more informed decision together on this important topic. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 2014年1月16日 (四) 06:46 (UTC)[回复]

Call for project ideas: funding is available for community experiments[编辑]

I apologize if this message is not in your language. Please help translate it.

Do you have an idea for a project that could improve your community? Individual Engagement Grants from the Wikimedia Foundation help support individuals and small teams to organize experiments for 6 months. You can get funding to try out your idea for online community organizing, outreach, tool-building, or research to help make Wikinews better. In March, we’re looking for new project proposals.

Examples of past Individual Engagement Grant projects:

Proposals are due by 31 March 2014. There are a number of ways to get involved!

Hope to have your participation,

Bot policy[编辑]

Hello. To facilitate steward granting of bot access, I suggest implementing the standard bot policy on this wiki. In particular, this policy allows stewards to automatically flag known interlanguage linking bots (if this page says that is acceptable), which form the vast majority of such requests. The policy also enables global bots on this wiki (if this page says that is acceptable), which are trusted bots that will be given bot access on every wiki that allows global bots.

This policy makes bot access requesting much easier for local users, operators, and stewards. To implement it we only need to create a redirect to this page from Project:Bot policy, and add a line at the top noting that it is used here. Please read the text at m:Bot policy before commenting. If you object, please say so; I hope to implement in two weeks if there is no objection, since it is particularly written to streamline bot requests on wikis with little or no community interested in bot access requests.

新闻专题开设计划讨论[编辑]

我打算就一些新闻专题做一种全新的专题页面模式,这样做有几个好处:

  1. 有利于对近期发生的新闻事件做有深度的分析。
  2. 对维基新闻长期沉寂有激活作用
  3. 为维基新闻提供新的发展方向

近期的一个目标是乌克兰动荡政局的研读,包括地理知识、人物介绍、军事知识等。目前并无固定分类针对此类新闻,因此我会做一个简单的新闻页先尝试一下,欢迎广大维基人提供宝贵意见。--Mengheng讨论2014年3月4日 (二) 09:58 (UTC)[回复]

有关Wikinewsie.org的讨论重启[编辑]

Following the board's rejecting AffComm's recommendation to recognise The Wikinewsie Group, and some confusing communication regarding incorporation, I'm trying to re-open discussion on the matter. If it is more-convenient to copy and translate my post on English Wikinews to enable local discussion, please do.

Restarting the process needs broader support than previously received. That means whatever we end up with has to meet the needs of more contributors and readers. --Brian McNeil/talk 2014年4月16日 (三) 14:28 (UTC)[回复]

Media Viewer[编辑]


Greetings, my apologies for writing in English.

I wanted to let you know that Media Viewer will be released to this wiki in the coming weeks. Media Viewer allows readers of Wikimedia projects to have an enhanced view of files without having to visit the file page, but with more detail than a thumbnail. You can try Media Viewer out now by turning it on in your Beta Features. If you do not enjoy Media Viewer or if it interferes with your work after it is turned on you will be able to disable Media Viewer as well in your preferences. I invite you to share what you think about Media Viewer and how it can be made better in the future.

Thank you for your time. - Keegan (WMF) 2014年5月23日 (五) 21:29 (UTC)[回复]

Media Viewer is now live on this wiki[编辑]


Media Viewer lets you see images in larger size

Greetings— and sorry for writing in English, please translate if it will help your community,

The Wikimedia Foundation's Multimedia team is happy to announce that Media Viewer was just released on this site today.

Media Viewer displays images in larger size when you click on their thumbnails, to provide a better viewing experience. Users can now view images faster and more clearly, without having to jump to separate pages — and its user interface is more intuitive, offering easy access to full-resolution images and information, with links to the file repository for editing. The tool has been tested extensively across all Wikimedia wikis over the past six months as a Beta Feature and has been released to the largest Wikipedias, all language Wikisources, and the English Wikivoyage already.

If you do not like this feature, you can easily turn it off by clicking on "Disable Media Viewer" at the bottom of the screen, pulling up the information panel (or in your your preferences) whether you have an account or not. Learn more in this Media Viewer Help page.

Please let us know if you have any questions or comments about Media Viewer. You are invited to share your feedback in this discussion on MediaWiki.org in any language, to help improve this feature. You are also welcome to take this quick survey in English, en français, o español.

We hope you enjoy Media Viewer. Many thanks to all the community members who helped make it possible. - Fabrice Florin (WMF) (talk) 2014年6月19日 (四) 21:54 (UTC)[回复]

Universal Language Selector will be enabled by default again on this wiki by 21 February 2014[编辑]

On January 21 2014 the MediaWiki extension Universal Language Selector (ULS) was disabled on this wiki. A new preference was added for logged-in users to turn on ULS. This was done to prevent slow loading of pages due to ULS webfonts, a behaviour that had been observed by the Wikimedia Technical Operations team on some wikis.

We are now ready to enable ULS again. The temporary preference to enable ULS will be removed. A new checkbox has been added to the Language Panel to enable/disable font delivery. This will be unchecked by default for this wiki, but can be selected at any time by the users to enable webfonts. This is an interim solution while we improve the feature of webfonts delivery.

You can read the announcement and the development plan for more information. Apologies for writing this message only in English. Thank you. Runa

Changes to the default site typography coming soon[编辑]

This week, the typography on Wikimedia sites will be updated for all readers and editors who use the default "Vector" skin. This change will involve new serif fonts for some headings, small tweaks to body content fonts, text size, text color, and spacing between elements. The schedule is:

  • April 1st: non-Wikipedia projects will see this change live
  • April 3rd: Wikipedias will see this change live

This change is very similar to the "Typography Update" Beta Feature that has been available on Wikimedia projects since November 2013. After several rounds of testing and with feedback from the community, this Beta Feature will be disabled and successful aspects enabled in the default site appearance. Users who are logged in may still choose to use another skin, or alter their personal CSS, if they prefer a different appearance. Local common CSS styles will also apply as normal, for issues with local styles and scripts that impact all users.

For more information:

-- Steven Walling (Product Manager) on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation's User Experience Design team

维基数据即将接管维基新闻的语言连接![编辑]

嗨各位,

我们已宣布维基数据将于8月19日起(如无意外)接管维基新闻的跨语言连接(站点连接)。这意味着站点链接将不需在本地编辑,而是前往维基数据编辑。这将使得所有语言版本维基新闻拥有相同的跨语言连接,并将能够调取一些数据。

您可在维基数据此页面了解此次更新并提供宝贵意见。

维基数据的支持来了[编辑]

嗨各位!

几分钟前我们在维基新闻提供了维基数据第一阶段的支持。这意味着您不再需要本地管理跨语言链接,而是前往维基数据编辑它们。正文中的跨语言链接仍将继续工作,不过我们强烈建议您确认是否修改为“[[''':'''xx:XXX]]”以防止跨语言冲突。如果您有更多有关维基数据的问题,维基数据开放了一个专门讨论维基新闻支持的项目页面:d:Wikidata:Wikinews

现阶段我们提供的是语言链接支持,几个月后我们将提供第二阶段支持,届时您将可以连接维基数据里的结构化数据。这包括一个人的出生年月日与城市等等。我们期待您的贡献。

Letter petitioning WMF to reverse recent decisions[编辑]

The Wikimedia Foundation recently created a new feature, "superprotect" status. The purpose is to prevent pages from being edited by elected administrators -- but permitting WMF staff to edit them. It has been put to use in only one case: to protect the deployment of the Media Viewer software on German Wikipedia, in defiance of a clear decision of that community to disable the feature by default, unless users decide to enable it.

If you oppose these actions, please add your name to this letter. If you know non-Wikimedians who support our vision for the free sharing of knowledge, and would like to add their names to the list, please ask them to sign an identical version of the letter on change.org.

Process ideas for software development[编辑]

’’My apologies for writing in English.’’

Hello,

I am notifying you that a brainstorming session has been started on Meta to help the Wikimedia Foundation increase and better affect community participation in software development across all wiki projects. Basically, how can you be more involved in helping to create features on Wikimedia projects? We are inviting all interested users to voice their ideas on how communities can be more involved and informed in the product development process at the Wikimedia Foundation. It would be very appreciated if you could translate this message to help inform your local communities as well.

I and the rest of my team welcome you to participate. We hope to see you on Meta.

Kind regards, -- Rdicerb (WMF) talk 2014年8月21日 (四) 22:15 (UTC)[回复]

欢迎关注我即将为Wiki带来的一个中文支持功能[编辑]

大家好, 在今年的Google Summer of Code项目中,我所申请的“为通用语言选择器提供中文字体支持”项目成功入选,将在未来的三个月内完成这一工程,并争取早日合并入主代码库。

工程概述[编辑]

如果一个页面中包含了需要某种字体才能显示的文字,而阅读者的设备上没有这种字体,就会显示出无法阅读的“豆腐块”。这种问题对于中文尤为常见,因为很多非中文用户的设备里没有中文字体;而且中文用户的字体库里也不可能含有所有字符。我们知道汉字有8万个以上,仅在Unicode中就定义了7万多,而实际上中文常用字很少,只有3500个左右。大多数用户都只安装了这些常用字,几乎不可能有人安装了包含所有汉字的字体。而Wiki作为一种包罗万象的媒体,页面上可能包含任何汉字。可以想象一下,我们写一个“古汉字专题Wiki”或者“生僻汉字专题Wiki”,对大多数人来说它们将是无法阅读的。

Webfonts技术是解决豆腐问题的一个办法,已经在wikimedia中启用。当发现页面中的特殊字体无法正常显示时,就从服务器上下载对应的字体文件。然而到目前为止wikimedia的webfonts仍然不支持中文,可能是因为中文字体太大了。即便只包含常用的3000多个汉字的字体文件,大小也会以数MB记,而我们要的是包含所有生僻字的解决方案,字体文件将达到几十MB,无法想象在打开一个页面时如果要加载这么大的文件,谁还会愿意打开。

本工程要解决的就是上述问题,主要完成两件事: 1. 字体裁剪。针对每个页面生成专用字体文件,比如某页面只使用了107个汉字,就为它生成只含107个汉字的字体文件,大概只有10~20KB,下载速度极快。 2. 字体收集。如果页面上包含了一个字形,连服务器的字形库里也没有,就秉持Wiki的贡献和分享精神,提供一个接口鼓励用户制作这个字形并上传给服务器。

解决了这两个问题,你将几乎再也看不到任何中文“豆腐块”,你写的包含任何汉字的wiki页面,也几乎可以被世界上任何读者无障碍阅读。

Meta RfCs on two new global groups[编辑]

Hello all,

There are currently requests for comment open on meta to create two new global groups. The first is a group for members of the OTRS permissions queue, which would grant them autopatrolled rights on all wikis except those who opt-out. That proposal can be found at m:Requests for comment/Creation of a global OTRS-permissions user group. The second is a group for Wikimedia Commons admins and OTRS agents to view deleted file pages through the 'viewdeletedfile' right on all wikis except those who opt-out. The second proposal can be found at m:Requests for comment/Global file deletion review.

We would like to hear what you think on both proposals. Both are in English; if you wanted to translate them into your native language that would also be appreciated.

It is possible for individual projects to opt-out, so that users in those groups do not have any additional rights on those projects. To do this please start a local discussion, and if there is consensus you can request to opt-out of either or both at m:Stewards' noticeboard.

Thanks and regards, Ajraddatz (talk) 2014年10月26日 (日) 18:04 (UTC)[回复]

Global AbuseFilter[编辑]

Hello,

AbuseFilter is a MediaWiki extension used to detect likely abusive behavior patterns, like pattern vandalism and spam. In 2013, Global AbuseFilters were enabled on a limited set of wikis including Meta-Wiki, MediaWiki.org, Wikispecies and (in early 2014) all the "small wikis". Recently, global abuse filters were enabled on "medium sized wikis" as well. These filters are currently managed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and have shown to be very effective in preventing mass spam attacks across Wikimedia projects. However, there is currently no policy on how the global AbuseFilters will be managed although there are proposals. There is an ongoing request for comment on policy governing the use of the global AbuseFilters. In the meantime, specific wikis can opt out of using the global AbuseFilter. These wikis can simply add a request to this list on Meta-Wiki. More details can be found on this page at Meta-Wiki. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on m:Talk:Global AbuseFilter.

Thanks,

PiRSquared17, Glaisher

可视化编辑器将在此wiki作为测试功能启用[编辑]

大家好。请原谅我使用英语,我希望本地社群成员能够翻译它。

可视化编辑器,用于MediaWiki的富文本编辑器,将很快在此wiki作为测试功能提供。这预计在11月26日星期三到来。

要使用它,您需要在部署后访问测试功能 页面并在"⧼Visualeditor-preference-core-label⧽"之后给复选框打钩。(如果您已启用"自动启用大部分测试功能"选项,可视化编辑器将会自动开启。)这里也有一个"⧼Visualeditor-preference-language-label⧽",如果需要您也可以启用它。

此后,您需要点击"编辑"以打开可视化编辑器,或"编辑源代码"以继续使用传统的wiki文本编辑器。您可以通过可视化编辑器开始编辑,之后切换为wiki文本编辑器,而不会丢失任何更改。

在MediaWiki.org,我们发布了一个指引,这样您就可以了解这一过渡如何帮助您社群的发展:请阅读并翻译它,如果您可以!您将在这里找到我们下一步的工作的信息。请在主要的反馈页面反馈任何问题或建议。您也将在此页面接收到下一期多语言月刊:如果您希望在别处订阅,例如在您的个人讨论页,请将相关页面加入至此
