Upcoming vote on the revised Enforcement Guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct[संपादन करीं]
Hello all,
In mid-January 2023, the Enforcement Guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct will undergo a second community-wide ratification vote. This follows the March 2022 vote, which resulted in a majority of voters supporting the Enforcement Guidelines. During the vote, participants helped highlight important community concerns. The Board’s Community Affairs Committee requested that these areas of concern be reviewed.
The volunteer-led Revisions Committee worked hard reviewing community input and making changes. They updated areas of concern, such as training and affirmation requirements, privacy and transparency in the process, and readability and translatability of the document itself.
The revised Enforcement Guidelines can be viewed here, and a comparison of changes can be found here.
How to vote?
Beginning January 17, 2023, voting will be open. This page on Meta-wiki outlines information on how to vote using SecurePoll.
Who can vote?
The eligibility requirements for this vote are the same as for the Wikimedia Board of Trustees elections. See the voter information page for more details about voter eligibility. If you are an eligible voter, you can use your Wikimedia account to access the voting server.
What happens after the vote?
Votes will be scrutinized by an independent group of volunteers, and the results will be published on Wikimedia-l, the Movement Strategy Forum, Diff and on Meta-wiki. Voters will again be able to vote and share concerns they have about the guidelines. The Board of Trustees will look at the levels of support and concerns raised as they look at how the Enforcement Guidelines should be ratified or developed further.

Editing news 2023 #1[संपादन करीं]
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
This newsletter includes two key updates about the Editing team's work:
- The Editing team will finish adding new features to the Talk pages project and deploy it.
- They are beginning a new project, Edit check.
Talk pages project
The Editing team is nearly finished with this first phase of the Talk pages project. Nearly all new features are available now in the Beta Feature for Discussion tools.
It will show information about how active a discussion is, such as the date of the most recent comment. There will soon be a new "बिसय जोड़ीं" button. You will be able to turn them off at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion. Please tell them what you think.
An A/B test for Discussion tools on the mobile site has finished. Editors were more successful with Discussion tools. The Editing team is enabling these features for all editors on the mobile site.
New Project: Edit Check
The Editing team is beginning a project to help new editors of Wikipedia. It will help people identify some problems before they click "बदलाव प्रकाशित करीं". The first tool will encourage people to add references when they add new content. Please watch that page for more information. You can join a conference call on 3 March 2023 to learn more.

Your wiki will be in read only soon[संपादन करीं]
Read this message in another language • Please help translate to your language
The Wikimedia Foundation tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers. 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.
All traffic will switch on 1 March. The test will start at 14:00 UTC.
Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop while the switch is made. 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 1 March 2023.
- 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.
- We expect the code deployments to happen as any other week. However, some case-by-case code freezes could punctually happen if the operation require them afterwards.
- GitLab will be unavailable for about 90 minutes.

टिप्पणी अउरी मत[संपादन करीं]
- नमस्कार, ये बात तो है नीति ना होने के कारण विवाद होते हैं और कई सदस्य इसका फायदा उठा के अपनी मनमानी करते हैं। ऐसा मैंने अपने अनुभव में हिन्दी विकिपीडिया में देखा है। मेरा सवाल ये है कि ऐसा किसी और विकि पे भी हो रखा है क्या ? और हम ये कैसे तय करेंगे कि कौन सी नीति मानी जाये और कौन सी नहीं ?-- हिंदुस्थान वासी वार्ता 13:52, 21 मार्च 2023 (UTC)
- @हिंदुस्थान वासी जी, एह तरह के व्यवस्था शुरुआती दौर में कैंटोनीज विकिपीडिया पर लागू कइल गइल रहे, जइसन कि मेटा पर एकर एक ठो हवाला मौजूद बाटे (देखीं मेटा पर एह खंड के आखिरी लाइन में), हालाँकि, अब अइसन बाटे कि ना ई नइखे मालुम। बाकी ई एक ठो उदाहरण बाटे कि अइसन कइल गइल बाटे आ कइल जा सके ला।
- जहाँ तक आपके ई सवाल बाटे कि कवन नीति मानल जाय, कवन ना, एकरा बिसय में नीति में प्रस्ताव कइल गइल बाटे। जवना चीज खातिर अलगा से लोकल नीति मौजूद होखी आ आम सहमती से इहाँ स्थापित होखी, ओह चीज खातिर लोकल नीति मानल जाई, बाकी सब खातिर अंग्रेजी नीति के युक्तियुक्त तरीका से पढ़ के इहाँ लागू मानल जाई। --SM7--बातचीत-- 17:46, 24 मार्च 2023 (UTC)
- समर्थन : वैसे तो पहली नज़र में यह नीति अनावश्यक सी लगती है लेकिन प्रस्ताव को पूरा पढ़ने पर प्रतीत हो रहा है कि यह करना उचित रहेगा। जहाँ सदस्यों को इस नीति से समस्या होगी, उसके सापेक्ष स्थानीय नीति प्रस्तावित करके सुधार किया जा सकता है।☆★संजीव कुमार (✉✉) 05:12, 24 मार्च 2023 (UTC)
- समर्थन : कवन नियम मानल जाई आ कवन ना ई त समुदाय के ही मिलके ही तय करै के चाही। मुद्दा त ईहो बा कि एकरे बदे समुदाय केतना जागरूक बा। नियम क ज़रूरत तब पड़ैला जब कवनो समस्या होखे। अंग्रेजी क नियम बहुत सोच बिचार कयके बनावल गयल बा आ जदि मौजूदा कवनो नीति में समुदाय के समस्या होई त बिचार कयके संजीव जी के कहला अनुसार स्थानीय नियम प्रस्तावित कयल जा सकत बा। --अजीत कुमार तिवारी बातचीत 17:10, 9 अप्रैल 2023 (UTC)
- समर्थन : जबतक भोजपुरी विकिपीडिया पर लोकल नीति आउर दिसानिर्देस ना बन पावत ह तब तक अंगरेजी विकिपीडिया क नीति आउर दिसानिर्देस लागू कयल जा सकत ह। @SM7: जी प्रस्ताव भइले ढेर दिन हो गयल बा। हो सके त अब एके लागू करे पर विचार करीं। --सौरभ तिवारी 05 (बात करीं) 15:02, 1 जुलाई 2023 (UTC)

- चर्चा पूरा भइल, प्रस्ताव Phabricator पर ले जाइल जात बा।
भोजपुरी विकिपीडिया पर नाया प्रयोगकर्ता अधिकार - सुस्थापित प्रयोगकर्ता के स्थापना खातिर ई प्रस्ताव रखल जात बा। ई अधिकार अंग्रेजी विकिपीडिया के Extended confirmed के नियर होखी। मने कि, प्रयोगकर्ता लोग के कुछ संपादन आ समय के बाद ई स्तर के अधिकार मिली।

एही के साथे-साथ एकर इस्तेमाल खातिर नीचे दिहल चीज प्रस्तावित कइल जा रहल बाटे:
- ई एगो सुरक्षा के स्तर होखी जेह पर, जरूरत पड़े पर, पन्ना सभ के प्रबंधक द्वारा सुरक्षित कइल जा सकत बा
- पन्ना स्थानांतरण (मूव) करे, मने कि नाँव बदले, के सुबिधा एह अधिकार आ ऊपर वाला लोग (प्रबंधक) लोग के होखी
- कंटेंट ट्रांसलेशन आ ट्विंकल नियर सुबिधा के इस्तेमाल एह अधिकार आ एकरे ऊपर वाला लोगन के होखी।
- अउरी कौनों औजार भा सुबिधा के इस्तेमाल एह अधिकार ले सीमित कइल, जइसन भबिस्य में आम सहमती द्वारा फैसला होखे।
अइसन प्रयोगकर्ता अधिकार स्तर के जरूरत एह कारन बा कि वर्तमान में सुरक्षा के स्तर ऑटोकन्फर्म के बाद सीधा प्रबंधक स्तर बाटे। बीच में एगो सुरक्षा स्तर बनावल उचित रही जेह पर महत्ववाला पन्ना सभ के सुरक्षित कइल जा सके। एकरा से पन्ना स्थानांतरण के उत्पात के रोके आ कंटेंट अनुवाद उपकरण के इस्तेमाल से अंधाधुंध लेख बनावे पर भी नियंत्रण होखी।

The Wikimedia Foundation tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers. 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.
All traffic will switch on 26 April. The test will start at 14:00 UTC.
Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop while the switch is made. 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 26 April 2023.
- 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.
- We expect the code deployments to happen as any other week. However, some case-by-case code freezes could punctually happen if the operation require them afterwards.
- GitLab will be unavailable for about 90 minutes.

I invite community members with experience and deep interest in community health and governance to nominate themselves to be part of the U4C building committee, which needs people who are:
- Community members in good standing
- Knowledgeable about movement community processes, such as, but not limited to, policy drafting, participatory decision making, and application of existing rules and policies on Wikimedia projects
- Aware and appreciative of the diversity of the movement, such as, but not limited to, languages spoken, identity, geography, and project type
- Committed to participate for the entire U4C Building Committee period from mid-May - December 2023
- Comfortable with engaging in difficult, but productive conversations
- Confidently able to communicate in English
The Building Committee shall consist of volunteer community members, affiliate board or staff, and Wikimedia Foundation staff.
The Universal Code of Conduct has been a process strengthened by the skills and knowledge of the community and I look forward to what the U4C Building Committee creates. If you are interested in joining the Building Committee, please either sign up on the Meta-Wiki page, or contact ucocproject

Automatic citations based on ISBN are broken[संपादन करीं]
Apologies if this message does not reach you in your favorite language. You can help translate it centrally at Meta. Thanks for your help.
We have recently become unable to access the WorldCat API which provided the ability to generate citations using ISBN numbers. The Wikimedia Foundation's Editing team is investigating several options to restore the functionality, but will need to disable ISBN citation generation for now.
This affects citations made with the VisualEditor Automatic tab, and the use of the citoid API in gadgets and user scripts, such as the autofill button on refToolbar. Please note that all the other automatic ways of generating citations, including via URL or DOI, are still available.
You can keep updated on the situation via Phabricator, or by reading the next issues of m:Tech News. If you know of any users or groups who rely heavily on this feature (for instance, someone who has an upcoming editathon), I'd appreciate it if you shared this update with them.

MinT Machine Translation added to your Wikipedia[संपादन करीं]
Hello!
Apologies as this message is not in your language, ⧼Please help translate⧽ to your language.
The WMF Language team has added another machine translation (MT) system for Content Translation in your Wikipedia called MinT; you can use MinT machine translation when translating Wikipedia articles using the Content and Section Translation tool.
The WMF Language team provides the MinT service. It is hosted in the Wikimedia Foundation Infrastructure with neural machine translation models that other organizations have released with an open-source license. MinT integrates translation based on NLLB-200, OpusMT, IndicTrans2 and Softcatalà. This MT is set as optional in your Wikipedia. Still, you can choose not to use it by selecting "Start with empty paragraph" from the "Initial Translation" dropdown menu.
Since MinT is hosted in the WMF Infrastructure and the models are open source, it adheres to Wikipedia's policies about attribution of rights, your privacy as a user and brand representation. You can find more information about the MinT machine translation and the models on this page.
Please note that the use of the MinT MT is not compulsory. However, we would want your community to:
- use it to improve the quality of the Machine Translation service
- provide feedback about its quality, and if you prefer the MinT machine translation as default in your Wikipedia.
We trust that introducing this MT is a good support to the Content Translation tool.
Thank you!

Deploying the Phonos in-line audio player to your Wiki[संपादन करीं]
Hello!
Apologies if this message is not in your language, ⧼Please help translate⧽ to your language.
This wiki will soon be able to use the inline audio player implemented by the Phonos extension. This is part of fulfilling a wishlist proposal of providing audio links that play on click.
With the inline audio player, you can add text-to-speech audio snippets to wiki pages by simply using a tag:
<phonos file="audio file" label="Listen"/>
The above tag will show the text next to a speaker icon, and clicking on it will play the audio instantly without taking you to another page. A common example where you can use this feature is in adding pronunciation to words as illustrated on the English Wiktionary below.
{{audio|en|En-uk-English.oga|Audio (UK)}}
Could become:
<phonos file="En-uk-English.oga" label="Audio (UK)"/>
The inline audio player will be available in your wiki in 2 weeks time; in the meantime, we would like you to read about the features and give us feedback or ask questions about it in this talk page.

Hello all,
I am pleased to share the next step in the Universal Code of Conduct work. The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) draft charter is now ready for your review.
The Enforcement Guidelines require a Building Committee form to draft a charter that outlines procedures and details for a global committee to be called the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C). Over the past few months, the U4C Building Committee worked together as a group to discuss and draft the U4C charter. The U4C Building Committee welcomes feedback about the draft charter now through 22 September 2023. After that date, the U4C Building Committee will revise the charter as needed and a community vote will open shortly afterward.
Join the conversation during the conversation hours or on Meta-wiki.

Coming soon: Reference Previews[संपादन करीं]
A new feature is coming to your wiki soon: Reference Previews are popups for references. Such popups have existed on wikis as local gadgets for many years. Now there is a central solution, available on all wikis, and consistent with the PagePreviews feature.
Reference Previews will be visible to everyone, including readers. If you don’t want to see them, you can opt out. If you are using the gadgets Reference Tooltips or Navigation Popups, you won’t see Reference Previews unless you disable the gadget.
Reference Previews have been a beta feature on many wikis since 2019, and a default feature on some since 2021. Deployment is planned for November 22.
