Inhoud redactieruimte

bewerken

Kunnen we de redactieruimte voorbehouden aan discussies over Wikinieuws? Of een afzonderlijke plek creëren voor de Engelse boodschappen die niet onmiddellijk een link hebben met Wikinieuws? Astenas (overleg) 29 jan 2021 21:58 (CET)[reageren]

Hoeft van mij niet per se, maar wat mij betreft is dit een mogelijkheid om te overwegen zodra er hier in de redactieruimte weer wat meer overleg tussen de verschillende vaste gebruikers plaatsvindt. Het afgelopen jaar heeft dat laatste zo goed als geheel stilgelegen. Bij zo'n lage activiteit heeft het w.m.b. ook weinig zin om de overlegruimte een speciale behandeling te geven. De Wikischim (overleg) 30 jan 2021 00:26 (CET)[reageren]
Waar kun je dit eigenlijk veranderen? Astenas (overleg) 30 jan 2021 01:05 (CET)[reageren]
Ik vind die boodschappen wel welkom. Daardoor weten we van 'global' ontwikkelingen die ook van invloed zijn op deze wiki. Doordat ze in de redactieruimte staan, ziet iemand ze ook wanneer die er een tijdje niet is geweest, totdat ze worden gearchiveerd. Ymnes (overleg) 30 jan 2021 07:54 (CET)[reageren]
Sommige gebruikers vinden het nuttig, andere weer niet, daarom ben ik voorstander van een aparte pagina. De mensen die het nuttig vinden kunnen de pagina op hun volglijst zetten, zodat ze altijd op de hoogte zijn. Astenas (overleg) 30 jan 2021 23:25 (CET)[reageren]
Als andere gebruikers (mv) tel ik alleen jou. En als je het wegstopt, wordt het minder gevonden. Gewoon accepteren dat jij het niet wilt lezen, maar anderen wel, kan toch gewoon? Volgens mij heb jij daar geen last van. Ik vind het als idee in zo'n kleine gemeenschap het beste om anderen ook hun ding te gunnen. Ymnes (overleg) 30 jan 2021 23:59 (CET)[reageren]

Proposal: Set two-letter project shortcuts as alias to project namespace globally

bewerken

Help met het vertalen in uw taal

Hello everyone,

I apologize for posting in English. I would like to inform everyone that I created a new global request for comment (GRFC) at Meta Wiki, which may affect your project: m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally.

In this GRFC, I propose that two-letter shortcuts for project names will become a default alias for the project namespace. For instance, on all Wikipedias, WP will be an alias to the Wikipedia: namespace (and similar for other projects). Full list is available in the GRFC.

This is already the case for Wikivoyages, and many individual projects asked for this alias to be implemented. I believe this makes it easier to access the materials in the project namespace, as well as creating shortcuts like WP:NPOV, as well as helps new projects to use this feature, without having to figure out how to request site configuration changes first.

As far as I can see, Wikinieuws currently does not have such an alias set. This means that such an alias will be set for you, if the GRFC is accepted by the global community.

I would like to ask all community members to participate in the request for comment at Meta-Wiki, see m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally.

Please feel free to ask me if you have any questions about this proposal.

Best regards,
--Martin Urbanec (talk) 18 feb 2021 15:12 (CET)[reageren]

Universele Gedragscode Fase 2

bewerken

De 'Universele Gedragscode (UCoC) voorziet in een universele basislijn van aanvaardbaar gedrag voor de gehele Wikimedia beweging en al haar projecten. Het project bevindt zich momenteel in fase 2, waarin duidelijke handhavingspaden worden geschetst. U kunt meer lezen over het hele project op de 'projectpagina.

Ontwerpcomité: Oproep tot kandidaatstelling

bewerken

De Wikimedia Foundation zoekt vrijwilligers voor een commissie die gaat voorstellen hoe de code afdwingbaar kan worden gemaakt. Vrijwilligers in de commissie zullen tussen de 2 en 6 uur per week besteden van eind april tot en met juli en opnieuw in oktober en november. Het is belangrijk dat het comité divers en inclusief is, en een verscheidenheid aan ervaringen heeft, waaronder zowel ervaren gebruikers als nieuwkomers, mensen die zijn gepest of daarop hebben gereageerd, en mensen die valselijk zijn beschuldigd van pesterijen.

Voor aanmelding en meer informatie over het proces, zie Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee.

2021 communautaire raadplegingen: Aankondiging en oproep voor vrijwilligers / vertalers

bewerken

Van 5 april - 5 mei 2021 zullen er op veel Wikimedia-projecten gesprekken plaatsvinden over hoe de UCoC gehandhaafd kan worden. We zijn op zoek naar vrijwilligers om belangrijk materiaal te vertalen, en ook om te helpen bij het organiseren van overleg in hun eigen taal of project met behulp van voorgestelde kernvragen. Als u geïnteresseerd bent in vrijwilligerswerk voor een van deze rollen, neem dan alstublieft contact us op in de taal die u het beste ligt.

Voor meer informatie over deze werkzaamheden en andere lopende gesprekken, zie Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations.

Terugzetten en hernoemen verwijderde pagina

bewerken

Bij het heropenen van de wiki werd Van het Groenewoud tegen internetpiraten verwijderd door @Ymnes: die verwijst naar https://www.hbvl.be/cnt/oid37744, met het argument dat het geen nieuws zou zijn. Als de titel van het artikel gewijzigd zou worden naar bvb. Van het Groenewoud beloont eerlijke consument, is het duidelijk dat het wel over een nieuwe evolutie ging. Ook historisch heeft dit nog belang, als illustratie van de pogingen van platenmaatschappijen en artiesten om internetpiraten te ontmoedigen in de vroege jaren '00.

De bron in het artikel kan gewijzigd worden naar deze archive link: https://web.archive.org/web/20060305010834/http://www.hln.be:80/hln/cch/det/art_127264.html --Azertus (overleg) 9 jun 2021 12:52 (CEST)[reageren]

@Azertus: Leuk dat je je als oud-Wikinewser hier laat zien!   Er lag toen veel onderhoudswerk en het ontbrak aan tijd om elk artikel op te knappen. Als jij die tijd in dit artikel wilt steken, ben ik zeker akkoord. De Wikischim is moderator (ik niet meer) en hij zal je artikel wel terug willen zetten zodat je daar de kans voor krijgt. Overleg het zelf met hem? Ymnes (overleg) 9 jun 2021 14:18 (CEST)[reageren]

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election has come to an end

bewerken

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.

Upcoming Call for Feedback about the Board of Trustees elections

bewerken
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 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
