We offer the following resources to help you plan your project and complete a grant proposal:

Program officers are also available to offer individualized proposal support upon request. Contact us if you would like feedback or more information.

We are excited to see your grant ideas that will support our community and make an impact on the future of Wikimedia projects. Put your idea into motion, and submit your proposal by February 10, 2021!

Universell uppförandekod: fas 2

[redigera]

Den universella uppförandekoden (UCoC) erbjuder en universell baslinje av acceptabelt beteende för hela Wikimediarörelsen och alla dess projekt. Projektet är för närvarande i fas 2, för att utforma hur man kommer genomföra koden. Du kan läsa mer om hela projektet på dess projektsida.

Beredningskommitté: Upprop för ansökningar

[redigera]

Wikimedia Foundation rekryterar volontärer för att ta delta i en kommitté för att försöka göra koden genomförbar. Kommitténs medlemmar kommer samlas mellan 2 till 6 timmar i veckan från sent i april till juli och sedan i oktober och november. Det är viktigt att kommittén är mångfaldig och inkluderande samt har en rad olika erfarenheter från erfarna användare och nykomlingar, till de som har utsatts för eller reagerat på trakasserier, samt dem som felaktigt anklagats för detsamma.

För att ansöka och ta reda på mer om processen, se Universell uppförandekod/Beredningskommitté.

Rådfrågning hos gemenskapen 2021: Notis och anrop för volontärer / översättare

[redigera]

Från 5 april – 5 maj 2021 kommer konversationer att hållas på flera Wikimediaprojekt om hur man ska efterfölja UCoC. Vi letar efter volontärer för att översätta nyckelmaterial och hjälpa till med att rådfråga på sina egna språk eller projekt med hjälp av föreslagna nyckelfrågor. Om du är intresserad av att delta i någon av dessa roller, var god meddela oss på vilket språk du än känner dig bekväm i.

För att ta reda på mer om arbetet och andra konversationer som äger rum, se Universell uppförandekod/Rådfrågning 2021.

Below are some links to guide you through;

Please note that the deadline for submission is 18th June 2021.

Announcements- To keep up to date with the developments around Wikimania, the COT sends out weekly updates. You can view them in the Announcement section here.

Update on the OCR Improvements

[redigera]

Hello! Sorry for writing in English. Hjälp till att översätta till ditt språk.

The OCR Improvements are complete. We, the Community Tech team, are grateful for your feedback from the beginning to the last stage when we were finalizing the interface.

Engine improvements

[redigera]
OCR menu in toolbar
OCR menu in toolbar
Reliability

Prior to our work, the OCR tools were separate gadgets. We have added "Wikimedia OCR." It is available under one icon inside the toolbar on all Wikisource wikis. This tool supports two other OCR tools, Tesseract and Google OCR. We expect these tools to be more stable. We will maintain Wikimedia OCR.

The gadgets will remain available. The communities will have sovereignty over when to enable or disable these.

Speed

Prior to this work, transcription would take upwards of 40 seconds. Our improvements average a transcription time under 4 seconds.

Advanced Tools improvements

[redigera]
Multiple-language support

Documents with multiple languages can be transcribed in a new way.

  1. Open the Avancerade alternativ
  2. Select the Languages (optional) field
  3. Search for and enter the languages in order of prevalence in the document.
UI Crop tool in Advanced tools
Cropping tool / Multi-column support

We have included a Cropper tool. It allows to select regions to transcribe on pages with complicated layouts.

Discoverability and accessibility of OCR

We have added an interface for new users. It is pulsating blue dots over the new icon in the toolbar. The new interface explains what OCR means and what transcription means in Wikisource.

We believe that you will do even more great things because of these changes. We also hope to see you at the 2022 Community Wishlist Survey. Thanks you again for all your opinions and support.

Please share your opinions on the project talk page!

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election has come to an end

[redigera]

Thank you for participating in the 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election! Voting closed August 31 at 23:59. The official data, including the four most voted candidates, will be announced as soon as the Elections Committee completes their review of the ballots. The official announcement of the new trustees appointed will happen later, once the selected candidates have been confirmed by the Board.

6,946 community members from 216 wiki projects have voted. This makes 10.2% global participation, 1.1% higher than in the last Board elections. In 2017, 5167 people from 202 wiki projects cast their vote. A full analysis is planned to be published in a few days when the confirmed results are announced. In the meantime, you can check the data produced during the election.

Diversity was an important goal with these elections. Messages about the Board election were translated into 61 languages. This outreach worked well. There were 70 communities with eligible voters voting in this election for the first time. With your help, next year’s Board of Trustees election will be even better.

We are looking for people who have some of the following skills:

  • Know how to write collaboratively. (demonstrated experience is a plus)
  • Are ready to find compromises.
  • Focus on inclusion and diversity.
  • Have knowledge of community consultations.
  • Have intercultural communication experience.
  • Have governance or organization experience in non-profits or communities.
  • Have experience negotiating with different parties.

The Committee is expected to start with 15 people. If there are 20 or more candidates, a mixed election and selection process will happen. If there are 19 or fewer candidates, then the process of selection without election takes place.

Will you help move Wikimedia forward in this important role? Submit your candidacy here. Please contact strategy2030(_AT_)wikimedia.org with questions.

Upcoming Call for Feedback about the Board of Trustees elections

[redigera]
You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

The Board of Trustees is preparing a call for feedback about the upcoming Board Elections, from January 7 - February 10, 2022.

While details will be finalized the week before the call, we have confirmed at least two questions that will be asked during this call for feedback:

  • What is the best way to ensure fair representation of emerging communities among the Board?
  • What involvement should candidates have during the election?

While additional questions may be added, the Movement Strategy and Governance team wants to provide time for community members and affiliates to consider and prepare ideas on the confirmed questions before the call opens. We apologize for not having a complete list of questions at this time. The list of questions should only grow by one or two questions. The intention is to not overwhelm the community with requests, but provide notice and welcome feedback on these important questions.

Do you want to help organize local conversation during this Call?

Contact the Movement Strategy and Governance team on Meta, on Telegram, or via email at msg(_AT_)wikimedia.org.

Reach out if you have any questions or concerns. The Movement Strategy and Governance team will be minimally staffed until January 3. Please excuse any delayed response during this time. We also recognize some community members and affiliates are offline during the December holidays. We apologize if our message has reached you while you are on holiday.

Best,

Movement Strategy and Governance
