The overall design could mirror that of the Mais Povos originários banner, which looked great! There are just a few changes:
Instead of the logo, we'd like to use an image of the wikicontest's prizes, which you can find here. Do you think it's possible? Additionally, the background color should be changed to #8153D6.

Text2: Inscreva-se aqui. Font: Open Sans Light, size 29, white. For the box, the color is #5ED5ED.
As you probably noticed, the instructions are pretty similar to the Mais Mulheres' banner, just different background colors, image and text. Maybe using that one as reference when it's done would make the work easier! Again, thanks a lot for the help! If you have any doubts, please contact me.

Hello @Tania Solá (WMMX)! I'll ask to see the survey before I comment, just let me know when you have it (I see we have a couple of months to set this up, so no urgency; just at least a couple of weeks before it starts so we have time to review :)). - TAndic (WMF) (talk) 10:57, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @DerHexer, @Tania Solá (WMMX) and I have coordinated on the survey and I send my approval to proceed when the time comes (above dates are 30 May to 12 June) :)
Tania, you may want to change the banner message to make sure it says it's from Wikimedia Mexico as that could encourage people to participate since it's specific to them.
For banner coverage, since this is a survey of only editors in Mexico I think it would be okay to do 100% on eswiki in Mexico to get the amount of needed data (maybe 90% if you want a random sample). I leave it up to you all for coverage on other wikis, but you can check the country stats for different wikis here (note: they are not mutually exclusive as far as I know, so some could be editors participating on multiple wikis) - TAndic (WMF) (talk) 09:09, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@AndreFrank-WMIL and מקף: Please note that campaigns have to requested at least 10 days in advance (see CNR) because of possible issues that can show up. Unfortunately, that's here the case:
What is this campaign about? As CentralNotice administrators, we had to give a category to the campaign (Article writing, Photography, Event, Fundraising, etc.). Unfortunately, my Hebrew is a bit odd and without any information beyond Wikimedia Israel campaign "רוצים שהעולם ילמד שהוא עגול? עגלו לטובת הוויקיפדיה העברית!" I cannot assign a useful category.
As far as I can conclude from the automated translation of the landing page, you are (also) asking for donations. As per CentralNotice guidelines, any kind of fundraising campaigns have to be forwarded to the Wikimedia Foundation staff 90 days in advance so that agreements can be signed, etc.
Campaigns that intend to target wide audiences (i.e., anonymous users in particular) should be announced on the local village pump and usually can only be enabled when there is no objection from the local community as well.
Lastly, we cannot make good use of images for CentralNotice banners. Although I could embed it into a banner and make the general background black, it will be a major problem for all devices beyond desktop PCs (mobile views often cover more than 50 % of readers so that you likely don't want me to disable that). Usually, either the banner design is provided in HTML/CSS/JavaScript by the requester or we adapt the standard banner where we can use one logo on the left (maybe another one on the right) and a short text with only a few other changes at max. Best, —DerHexer(Talk)12:15, 1 March 2024 (UTC) PS: See further my presentation about CentralNotice campaigns here.[reply]
Hi, thanks for the detailed explanation. This is the first time I make such a request and what you wrote helps me a lot.* So, for me, probably just to postpone the start and end date respectively, I guess the main thing is that it will take about a month in total.
This is a WMIL fundraising campaign, suggests the readers who are interested in doing so, to round the purchases amounts on credit to the nearest new shekel round whole number, and to donate the Israeli agoras (= the little rounded amount). If you would like to know more about this donation concept (quite familiar in Israel), here is a more detailed explanation: w:he:עיגול לטובה (machine translation to english)
Ok. @Andre, I hope you can take care of this aspect. Perhaps the WMF already knows the WMIL campaign from previous years and will confirm it quickly.
Is it possible to implement this banner using two separate almost identical banners, the only difference being that one is optimized for desktop and the other for mobile devices?
Thanks for the proposed steps. As soon as I have all information, I can set up the campaign without the further delay of 10 days. I can also add two banner variants, one for desktop, the other for mobile. Please keep in mind that only HTML/CSS/JavaScript can be used, no wiki markup (the image could be used but has flaws, as said). I'm pinging JBrungs (WMF) so that she is notified about the campaign and can add her OK when everything is cut and dried from the fundraising end. Best, —DerHexer(Talk)16:41, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@AndreFrank-WMIL and מקף: I know WMIL has run the Round Up campaign before. Have you been in touch with the WMF office this year? I was in touch with @OphirT - WMIL about the campaign last year. We need to renew agreements before you can run the campaign. If this has already happened, great, but can you drop me an email at jbrungs at wikimedia dot org and let me know the details so I can double check this from my side? Thank you!

The voting period for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) members is now open. Read more on voter information and eligibility details.
Hi RamzyM (WMF). A few things about the campaign/banner settings before I make it:
Your request asks this to be run for all logged-in users, but the vast majority of those users are not eligible. We can add some javascript that will limit this to users with more than 300 edits, I'm forgetting whether we can get global edit count or whether we're limited to per-wiki edits. Basically, I'd recommend finding other ways to reach out to people who are not eligible for edit count but may be eligible for the other listed reasons.
If you want to run this on Catalan projects (your request indicates all languages), please discuss it with the community and report back whether they have approved. This is indicated in the usage guidelines.
How many languages will this banner be translated into before it is running? We like to avoid showing English banners to non-English speakers.
Please add your campaign to the CN calendar and requests page. This is steps 3 and 4 of requesting the banner (see the requests page).
Hi Vermont, I've added the campaign to the calendar and requests page.
Yes, please add the javascript that will limit the banner to users with more than 300 edits across the Wikimedia projects, if possible.
No, please exclude the Catalan projects.
We do not budget for a professional translation, since we plan to use a modified version of the U4C charter banner texts (which has been widely translated). We will prioritize calling for volunteer translations into Russian, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Arabic, Japanese, Bengali, Farsi, Ukrainian, Czech, Polish, Italian, Turkish, Korean, Indonesian, Thai, Hindi, Swahili, Hausa, and Hungarian.
Do you wish to show banners to Logged In users, Anonymous Users or Both? Do you want to target users with a specific number of edits or average monthly?
The banner should be seen by unregistered users without the possibility that they can remove it, unless they have made at least one change in the last two months. As for registered users should be shown if they have not made a change for at least a year. In this case the button to close the banner should be shown.
What countries will your campaign target?
All countries where Italian is spoken.

Description - The aim of the campaign is to increase the number of active users of Wikipedia in Italian, which are in continuous decline despite being in high demand.
Metrics - To measure the success of this initiative we will display edit data during the months of display of the banner. And also the number of new registered users.
What banner(s) will you use? What will be your landing page?edit
I don't believe so, and it would be in contrast with our expected usage guideline of "Avoid constant use, to prevent banner blindness as much as possible, and to leave some space to the local community."
Additionally, we don't have any evidence that I am aware of that exposing someone to a banner more than 5 or 10 times, has any significant return. On most fundraising and campaign banners, the click through rate falls to near zero by that point.
We also have the evidence that simply inviting readers to read documentation does not lead to significant participation of new editors (i.e. see the background on the Growth Tools: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Growth ). Have the landing pages been tested as effective for newcomers? Are you leveraging the NewComerHomePage?
Oppose As this request only targets the Italian Wikipedia, I would expect a strong consensus to be reached there beforehand the CentralNotice request. I wouldn't really consider this to be consensus. This is not how things are done. --valcio•••14:42, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DerHexer:, @Martin Urbanec: and @Vermont: Good evening everyone and I'm really sorry to bother you but I want to check if everything is OK with this request since this campaing is about to start. Thank you so much in advance and I remain at your disposal in case there's any questions. Best, --Paula (WDU) (talk) 01:01, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Paula (WDU), nothing's been done on our end yet. Sorry for the delay here, and no worries for pinging us. The settings look okay re: language and region, though we generally can't do a full two months. 4 weeks is the longest we generally do, the usual cap is 2.
I'm also going to hold off on enabling this until we get approval from JBrungs (WMF); according to the calendar there would be some overlap for anonymous editors viewing eswiki in 5 countries. (In the future, please remember to add your banner to the calendar too.)
I've made a campaign and can make a banner when this is good to go, or someone else can, I'm unfortunately very busy.
Thanks for the ping. Yes, we are running a fundraising campaign until the end of May in CL, CO, MX, PE, UY. This means 75% of non-logged in users will see a fundraising banner first, before they will see your campaign banner. If this is ok with you, I don't see a problem with the campaign as long as CN admins are ok with it. Have a good campaign. Best, JBrungs (WMF) (talk) 04:49, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Paula (WDU), while creating the banner I read over the text and event page, and I have some concerns:
The banner text (en: "Contribute to the knowledge we need for a sustainable future") is quite vague. It's unclear what this is a banner for, it could be anything from fundraising to advocacy. But, it's an editing event, and that should be clear for people who click on this.
You've requested this be shown to logged-in and anonymous users, and the resources page has some helpful info, but I don't think this is sufficient for the audience. This banner will be shown to people who have never edited before, who may not even know that they can edit. I'd recommend bold, emphasized text on the main event page pointing new contributors to the resources page, and more of a focus on providing support in getting started from the absolute beginning (i.e., registering an account, how to edit, etc.). I also can't find information about contacting the organizers in the event pages.
Hi @Vermont, thank you very much for your suggestions. I'll answer your concerns:
The banner text is the one the global campaign has been using. @Astinson (WMF): is there other phrase we could use?
I've added a paragraph for beginners in which we invite them to look at the resources page, join the telegram chat (which is included in the event registration tool as well) and to write us by mail in case of doubts.
I wasn't able to look the banner. It gave me an error but, if you agree with it, we can wait for Alex Stinson's opinions regarding the banner's message. Best, Paula (WDU) (talk) 14:00, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Vermont the tag line has been working pretty well in the contexts where communities are testing it.
One way the action could be clarified would be "Add knowledge for a sustainable future to Wikipedia" or something like that -- where its more of an action language, than a tag line. I think we rely a lot on the landing pages to clarify the action with most central notice campaigns, and I trust Paula and team to do that well, Astinson (WMF) (talk) 12:53, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the little delay of my response. The banners look good and just like we have planned them. I hope the description of the targeting is clear enough in the request above.
Now I have finally understood that you need HTML/CSS/JavaScript, not Wiki markup, in the drafts for banners. Above I have used an existing example I found when searching for a template to prepare it as good as possible; thus the style and the comments in the source text.
Hi, this is a bug report. There doesn't seem to be any way to dismiss these banners? Screenshot at imgur. (i.e. no "X" close icon, as far as I can see). I tested in a logged-out window, too. I hope that helps! Quiddity (talk) 17:04, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Description - Call for participation to Wiki Loves Africa 2024.
The banner is to promote the Wiki Loves Africa photo campaign. It is a call for participation.
It is pretty much unchanged compared to previous years. The contest is open for 2 months. We run the banner only in Africa (though the contest is open everywhere). Every year, 90% or so of our participants are new (and some are retained there after !), so running the banner for IP addresses is very important as it serves as recruitment system for new participants. The contest runs over all African countries. In some countries (around 30), local teams will organize activities. They are very much in ask for the banners (both because it helps promote the contest in countries where wikipedia is not very well known) and because it makes them feel we take them seriously (and we do of course...).

@DerHexer - thank you for this. Could you please let me have a link to a visual of the banner. I cannot find a visual on the two links you shared. Perhaps my brain fog is getting the better of me ;-). Thanks again for this monumental work! Islahaddow (talk) 07:43, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Anthere: I've added ZW and enabled the campaign. “En, Fr, Pt, Ar, African languages (to be specified a bit later...)” is not specific enough so that I could add some more languages. Just let me know what else has to be added. Best, —DerHexer(Talk)10:47, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We'd like to continue the campaign from last year (request). The banner will only be running for two days before the first Wednesday of each month, and will be targeted to users with less than 100 edits. Jon Harald Søby (WMNO) (talk) 08:24, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requests must be made, at minimum, 10 days in advance of any campaign
For normal requests, a central notice admin will close the discussion. In the areas of advocacy, the stewards team may be called upon to assess consensus.
Oppose As this request only targets the Italian Wikipedia, I would expect a strong consensus to be reached there beforehand the CentralNotice request. I wouldn't really consider this to be consensus. This is not how things are done. --valcio ••• 14:42, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
