Inspire Campaign: Improving diversity, improving content
[redigera]This March, we’re organizing an Inspire Campaign to encourage and support new ideas for improving gender diversity on Wikimedia projects. Less than 20% of Wikimedia contributors are women, and many important topics are still missing in our content. We invite all Wikimedians to participate. If you have an idea that could help address this problem, please get involved today! The campaign runs until March 31.
All proposals are welcome - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Constructive, positive feedback on ideas is appreciated, and collaboration is encouraged - your skills and experience may help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign and help this project better represent the world’s knowledge!

Stewards confirmation rules
[redigera]Hello, I made a proposal on Meta to change the rules for the steward confirmations. Currently consensus to remove is required for a steward to lose his status, however I think it's fairer to the community if every steward needed the consensus to keep. As this is an issue that affects all WMF wikis, I'm sending this notification to let people know & be able to participate. Best regards, --MF-W 10 april 2015 kl. 18.12 (CEST)

Greetings,
I am pleased to announce that nominations are now being accepted for the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections. This year the Board and the FDC Staff are looking for a diverse set of candidates from regions and projects that are traditionally under-represented on the board and in the movement as well as candidates with experience in technology, product or finance. To this end they have published letters describing what they think is needed and, recognizing that those who know the community the best are the community themselves, the election committee is accepting nominations for community members you think should run and will reach out to those nominated to provide them with information about the job and the election process.
This year, elections are being held for the following roles:
Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long term sustainability of the Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. There are three positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the board elections page.
Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)
The Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) makes recommendations about how to allocate Wikimedia movement funds to eligible entities. There are five positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC elections page.
Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) Ombud
The FDC Ombud receives complaints and feedback about the FDC process, investigates complaints at the request of the Board of Trustees, and summarizes the investigations and feedback for the Board of Trustees on an annual basis. One position is being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC Ombudsperson elections page.
The candidacy submission phase lasts from 00:00 UTC April 20 to 23:59 UTC May 5 for the Board and from 00:00 UTCApril 20 to 23:59 UTC April 30 for the FDC and FDC Ombudsperson. This year, we are accepting both self-nominations and nominations of others. More information on this election and the nomination process can be found on the 2015 Wikimedia elections page on Meta-Wiki.
Please feel free to post a note about the election on your project's village pump. Any questions related to the election can be posted on the talk page on Meta, or sent to the election committee's mailing list, board-elections -at- wikimedia.org

Wikidata: Access to data from arbitrary items is coming
[redigera](Sorry for writing in English)
When using data from Wikidata on Wikipedia and other sister projects, there is currently a limitation in place that hinders some use cases: data can only be accessed from the corresponding item. So, for example, the Wikipedia article about Berlin can only get data from the Wikidata item about Berlin but not from the item about Germany. This had technical reasons. We are now removing this limitation. It is already done for French Wikisource and Dutch Wikipedia. Your project is one of the next ones:
- 18. May: Farsi Wikipedia, English Wikivoyage, Hebrew Wikipedia
- 1. June: Italian Wikipedia, all remaining Wikisource
We hope to have it rolled out nearly everywhere by the end of June 2015.
We invite you to play around with this new feature if you are one of the people who have been waiting for this for a long time. If you have technical issues/questions with this you can come to d:Wikidata:Contact the development team.
A note of caution: Please be careful with how many items you use for a single page. If it is too many pages, loading might get slow. We will have to see how the feature behaves in production to see where we need to tweak and how.
How to use it, once it is enabled:
- Parser function: {{#property:P36|from=Q183}} to get the capital from the item about Germany
- Lua: see mw:Extension:Wikibase Client/Lua

Wikidata: Access to data from arbitrary items is here
[redigera](Sorry for writing in English.)
I have previously announced the arbitrary access feature here. It is now enabled for you.
More background information: When using data from Wikidata on most Wikipedias and other sister projects, there is currently a limitation in place that hinders some use cases: data can only be accessed from the corresponding item. So, for example, the Wikipedia article about Berlin can only get data from the Wikidata item about Berlin but not from the item about Germany. This has technical reasons. This limitation has now been removed for your project.
We invite you to play around with this new feature if you are one of the people who have been waiting for this for a long time. If you have technical issues/questions with this you can come to Wikidata:Contact the development team.
How to use it:
- Parser function: {{#property:P36|from=Q183}} to get the capital (Property:P36) from the item about Germany (Q183)
- Lua: see mw:Extension:Wikibase Client/Lua
I hope you'll make great things with this and that it will make your work on this project easier.
Pywikibot compat will no longer be supported - Please migrate to pywikibot core
[redigera]Sorry for English, I hope someone translates this.
Pywikibot (then "Pywikipediabot") was started back in 2002. In 2007 a new branch (formerly known as "rewrite", now called "core") was started from scratch using the MediaWiki API. The developers of Pywikibot have decided to stop supporting the compat version of Pywikibot due to bad performance and architectural errors that make it hard to update, compared to core. If you are using pywikibot compat it is likely your code will break due to upcoming MediaWiki API changes (e.g. T101524). It is highly recommended you migrate to the core framework. There is a migration guide, and please contact us if you have any problem.
There is an upcoming MediaWiki API breaking change that compat will not be updated for. If your bot's name is in this list, your bot will most likely break.
Thank you,
The Pywikibot development team, 19:30, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
HTTPS
[redigera]
Hej!
Wikimediastiftelsen har de senaste åren arbetat mot att aktivera HTTPS som standard för alla användare, inklusive oregistrerade, för bättre integritet och säkerhet för både läsare och skribenter. Det har tagit tid eftersom vi varit tvungna ta hänsyn till flera olika aspekter. Våra servrar har inte varit redo att hantera det. Wikimediastiftelsen har stundvis tvingats balansera mål där det varit svårt att uppnå det ena utan att offra någonting annat.
Tvingad HTTPS har just implementerats på alla Wikimediaprojekt. Några av er är redan medvetna om detta då vissa av Wikipedias språkversioner konverterade till HTTPS förra veckan och berörda gemenskaper underrättades.
De flesta av Wikimedias skribenter kommer inte att märka någon skillnad. Om du gör redigeringar som inloggad användare har du förmodligen redan loggat in via HTTPS. Vi kommer att hålla ett öga på det för att vara säkra på att allt funkar som det ska. Om du har problem med det, hör av dig till oss eller mig för andra frågor.

Proposal to create PNG thumbnails of static GIF images
[redigera]-3-phenyl-cyclohexanone.gif)
-3-phenyl-cyclohexanone.png)
There is a proposal at the Commons Village Pump requesting feedback about the thumbnails of static GIF images: It states that static GIF files should have their thumbnails created in PNG. The advantages of PNG over GIF would be visible especially with GIF images using an alpha channel. (compare the thumbnails on the side)
This change would affect all wikis, so if you support/oppose or want to give general feedback/concerns, please post them to the proposal page. Thank you. --McZusatz (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (diskussion) 24 juli 2015 kl. 08.16 (CEST)

[redigera]Undersökning: gemenskapens önskelista
Hej allihop!
Wikimedia Foundations Community Tech-team har som fokus att bygga bättre verktyg för erfarna Wikimediaanvändare som fokuserar på att administrera och förvalta wikiernas innehåll. Vi påbörjar nu en önskelisteundersökning för gemenskapen för att ta reda på vilka projekt vi kan arbeta på som är de mest användbara.
För fas 1 av undersökningen bjuder vi in alla aktiva användare att presentera korta förslag där de förklarar vad de skulle vilja att vi arbeta på, och varför det är viktigt. Fas 1 kommer att vara i 2 veckor. I fas 2 kommer vi be er att rösta på förslagen. Efteråt kommer vi att analysera de 10 förslagen i topp och skapa en prioriterad önskelista.
Medan större delen av den här processen kommer att ske på engelska, bjuder vi in folk från alla Wikimediawikier att lägga fram förslag. Vi kommer också att bjuda in gemenskapen att hjälpa till att översätta förslag till engelska.
Ditt förslag skall innehålla: problemet du vill lösa, vem som skulle dra nytta av det, och en föreslagen lösning, om du har en. Du kan presentera ditt förslag på sidan för gemenskapens önskelista, genom att använda fältet och den stora blå knappen. Vi kommer att ta emot förslag i 2 veckor, med 23 november som sista datum.
Vi ser fram emot att höra dina idéer.
Wikimania 2016 scholarships ambassadors needed
[redigera]Hello! Wikimania 2016 scholarships will soon be open; by the end of the week we'll form the committee and we need your help, see Scholarship committee for details.
If you want to carefully review nearly a thousand applications in January, you might be a perfect committee member. Otherwise, you can volunteer as "ambassador": you will observe all the committee activities, ensure that people from your language or project manage to apply for a scholarship, translate scholarship applications written in your language to English and so on. Ambassadors are allowed to ask for a scholarship, unlike committee members.

This is a message regarding the proposed 2015 Free Bassel banner. Translations are available.
Hi everyone,
This is to inform all Wikimedia contributors that a straw poll seeking your involvement has just been started on Meta-Wiki.
As some of your might be aware, a small group of Wikimedia volunteers have proposed a banner campaign informing Wikipedia readers about the urgent situation of our fellow Wikipedian, open source software developer and Creative Commons activist, Bassel Khartabil. An exemplary banner and an explanatory page have now been prepared, and translated into about half a dozen languages by volunteer translators.
We are seeking your involvement to decide if the global Wikimedia community approves starting a banner campaign asking Wikipedia readers to call on the Syrian government to release Bassel from prison. We understand that a campaign like this would be unprecedented in Wikipedia's history, which is why we're seeking the widest possible consensus among the community.
Given Bassel's urgent situation and the resulting tight schedule, we ask everyone to get involved with the poll and the discussion to the widest possible extent, and to promote it among your communities as soon as possible.
(Apologies for writing in English; please kindly translate this message into your own language.)
Thank you for your participation!

Password Strength RFC
[redigera]Hej!
Vi har påbörjat en RFC på Meta för att skärpa lösenordskraven för användare som har konton med redigeringsåtkomst på MediaWiki:Common.js, har tillgång till checkuser eller har tillgång till Oversight.
Denna typ av konton har åtkomst till känsliga delar på våra webbplatser och kan göra svår skada om dessa konton skulle falla i fel händer. I nuläget är det enda kravet att lösenordet ska vara mins ett tecken långt. Vi skulle vilja öka kravet till 8 tecken (bytes) och dessutom bannlysa vissa mycket vanligt förekommande lösenord.
Genom att skärpa lösenordskravet för konton med hög åtkomstnivå hoppas vi kunna göra Wikimediawikis säkrare för alla. Var god läs förslaget i sin helhet här, och gör din röst hörd på denna RFC.
Tack!
