translating Wikidata

Heya :)

You signed up on the Wikidata volunteers page saying you're interested in translations. Wikidata is now in a state where it's probably ok to translate. Translations are happening on http://translatewiki.net. Let me know if you have any issues/questions. Thanks for helping with that!

New option on interproject links

Hi, thanks for participating in the RFC for interproject links. There is a new option that might be interesting to explore. Please check Dropdown next to title 1 and Dropdown next to title 2. They are part of Option 5.--Micru (talk) 14:34, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

Re:Amical's bylaws

Hi Arnaugir! If you recall, the matter was addressed here, in the first point. Does this help? I was (and AffCom, for that matter) under the impression that that was what was going to be done? If this or any other wording is going to be different to that which was proposed on the talk page, could you please let me know? Thanks in advance! Raystorm (talk) 20:43, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, I was just going over them. ;-) I will ping AffCom about it too, the more eyes the better! Meanwhile, recalling our conversation from over a week ago, it looks like there is not too much bureaucracy involved in modifying the bylaws, which is just great (if you need support for the fee, do let us know). At AffCom we don't require all that if you remember from our talk, just the "Acta" of the GA will be enough. :-) I hope you have a great meet! Raystorm (talk) 21:00, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Very well. :-) It does help knowing the date of the GA, hehe. Did you guys made the enquiries you commented about what would be required for the name change? Nothing too complicated I hope? Raystorm (talk) 21:21, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

I see. :-( I think it was either Stephen or Sj who commented that hiring a lawyer just for this might be necessary, and that that could potentially be funded through the Grants program. Do let us know in any case. Thanks, Raystorm (talk) 21:28, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Hey there! I'm glad to hear it. I think your mail was moderated, but no worries. :D Resolution is prepped, so it's just a matter of voting. You need to update the Meta page of the bylaws, it reads kind of confusing now (the current ones are no longer current, heh). And perhaps start changing everything to Amical Wikimedia? :) Congratulations on becoming the new chair, btw! I will contact you the moment the resolution is published, okay? Kind regards, Raystorm (talk) 11:59, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi Arnaugir! Do you think we can have a look at the minutes of your General Assembly? If so, when? We can read catalan too :-) --Maor X (talk) 21:49, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Well, as we spoke during the meeting at Milan, I requested that the Committee received a copy of the minutes, which were going to be for AffCom use only. But hey, this is fair enough, thanks :-) --Maor X (talk) 20:21, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Amical Wikimedia

Arnau, he vist que estàs actualitzant i adequant la pàgina. Crec que t'has deixat Catalunya Nord. On diu:

Catalan language is spoken in Catalunya (Catalonia), País Valencià (Valencian Country), Illes Balears (Balearic Islands), Spain, Andorra and Italy (Sardinia)

S'hi podria posar:

Catalan language is spoken in Catalunya (Catalonia), País Valencià (Valencian Country), Illes Balears (Balearic Islands) - Spain -, Andorra, Catalunya Nord (North Catalonia) - France - and Sardinia - Italy -.

Hi,

could you be a bit more careful while editing templates? You removed a few pretty existing chapters. :)

Have a good editing, :)

Marcar pàgines

Hola Arnau, veig que ets Translator Administrator. Podries marcar per traduir les pàgines que falten de wikiArS a outreach? outreach:WikiArS/Ask4img, outreach:WikiArS/Schools. D'altra banda, saps si hi ha un lloc on demanar manualment la traducció, avisar que hi ha aquestes pàgines per traduir, demanar per llengües en concret (neerlandés, alemany, francès, esperanto...) o per demanar traducció de plantilles que fan servir la Translate Extension o per traduir des de llengües que no siguin l'anglès, com el català per exemple? Ja sé moltes preguntes :-) M'estic intentant aclarir amb tot això de les traduccions. --Dvdgmz (talk) 15:03, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Ah, demanes les eines per marcar encara que no facis traduccions? --Dvdgmz (talk) 17:41, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Clar, m'havia liat, pensava que les eines es donaven a qui tenia un historial de traduccions. Però entenc que són més aviat per qui vol marcar els textos que cal traduïr, faci traduccions o no. Ok doncs, les demanaré i així és més fàcil per fer manteniment. Gràcies per fer-me veure la llum! :-) --Dvdgmz (talk) 18:32, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Gràcies/Thank you

Viquimarató 35 hores a la Fundació Miró (abril 2013) / 35-hour edit-a-thon at Miró Foundation (April 2013)

Hola, gràcies a la teva firma donant suport a la nostra associació. El passat dia 5 de juny Amical Wikimedia (Associació Amical Viquipèdia) va ser reconeguda pel Consell d'Administració de la Fundació Wikimedia com a Organització Temàtica. Pots veure el comunicat de l'associació en català aquí o el comunicat de la WMF en anglès aquí. Per a la nostra associació és una fita molt important, portàvem 5 anys demanant ésser un organisme oficial. Nosaltres continuarem la nostra tasca de promoció al carrer i a les institucions de la Viquipèdia i els seus projectes germans arreu dels territoris de parla catalana.

Hello, thanks for your signature giving support to our association. Last 5th of June Amical Wikimedia (Associació Amical Viquipèdia) was recognised by the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees as a Thematic Organization. You can read the news bulletin of our association in Catalan here or the WMF's bulletin in English here. For our association, this is a very important achievement: we have been pursuing the official recognition for the last 5 years. We are going to continue the task of promoting Wikipedia and its sister projects all around the Catalan-speaking regions.

Moltes gràcies, Thank you --Davidpar (talk) 15:23, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Strategy project & greetings

Hello Arnau, that's a nice photo on your userpage now :)

I'm returning to the strategy project idea. As you were interested in the past, would you please take a look at the updated page and share your thoughts?

Feel free to ping others who might be interested, from sister projects and smaller languages. People who helped out with the smaller language efforts that WM:CAT has helped organize would be excellent voices to get involved.

I'd also appreciate your thoughts on how we can have a more meaningful multilingual discussion: it's not enough to have a mostly-english page where a few people post in other languages. What do you do for your own multilingual events?

Thanks and regards, –SJ talk  02:17, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Superprotect letter update

Hi Arnaugir,

Along with more hundreds of others, you recently signed Letter to Wikimedia Foundation: Superprotect and Media Viewer, which I wrote.

Today, we have 562 signatures here on Meta, and another 61 on change.org, for a total of 623 signatures. Volunteers have fully translated it into 16 languages, and begun other translations. This far exceeds my most optimistic hopes about how many might sign the letter -- I would have been pleased to gain 200 siguatures -- but new signatures continue to come.

I believe this is a significant moment for Wikimedia and Wikipedia. Very rarely have I seen large numbers of people from multiple language and project communities speak with a unified voice. As I understand it, we are unified in a desire for the Wikimedia Foundation to respect -- in actions, in addition to words -- the will of the community who has built the Wikimedia projects for the benefit of all humanity. I strongly believe it is possible to innovate and improve our software tools, together with the Wikimedia Foundation. But substantial changes are necessary in order for us to work together smoothly and productively. I believe this letter identifies important actions that will strongly support those changes.

Have you been discussing these issues in your local community? If so, I think we would all appreciate an update (on the letter's talk page) about how those discussions have gone, and what people are saying. If not, please be bold and start a discussoin on your Village Pump, or in any other venue your project uses -- and then leave a summary of what kind of response you get on the letter's talk page.

Finally, what do you think is the right time, and the right way, to deliver this letter? We could set a date, or establish a threshold of signatures. I have some ideas, but am open to suggestions.

Thank you for your engagement on this issue, and please stay in touch. -Pete F (talk) 18:24, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

Traducción de Iberoconf 2014

Hola, Arnau. Realicé cambios importantes a la página principal sobre Iberoconf 2014, los que implican una traducción al inglés (como debe hacerse siempre al utilizar la extensión de traducción en los proyectos Wikimedia) y la inclusión de enlaces no traducibles (por ejemplo, en la herramienta de traducción se muestra el código $amical que sirve como enlace hacia Special:MyLanguage/Amical Wikimedia).

Como resultado de los cambios, la versión en catalán ahora está desactualizada y muestra que solo está completa al 44 %. Para completarla se requerirá, en su mayoría, incluir los enlaces no traducibles. Dado que eres el traductor de la edición en catalán, quizás desees revisarla para ayudar a completarla al 100 % una vez más. Saludos. Allan Aguilar (talk) 20:09, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Template:Progress bar

Hi Arnaugir,

I noticed your User:Arnaugir/progress. Just wanted to let you know that some time ago I created {{Progress bar}}, in the idea of build a strong template that could fit many use cases. Hope you would find it useful!

Cheers, Jean-Fred (talk) 19:05, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanks Jean-Frédéric. Will use it for next report. cheers--Arnaugir (talk) 19:28, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

Ready for translation: VisualEditor News #4—2015

Hi! This is an invitation to join translators working on the August's issue of the VisualEditor multilingual newsletter, which will be widely delivered at the end of this workweek. Among other things, this month it features the names of the top contributors for the recent VisualEditor 2nd Translathon. Thanks a lot for your support, as usual! Elitre (WMF), 16:49, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Once you've selected it, you'll see the document in English side by side with any translation work already done in your language. You can add new translations or modify existing ones.

PPS: We are maintaining a list of editors who have worked on VE-related content (such as newsletters). We only use it to notify them of translation opportunities, to make sure they don't miss Translathons, etc. If you would like messages like this one to be delivered on your talk page at a different WMF project, need any help with translations related to VisualEditor or would like to remove your name from that list, please contact me directly.

Current strategy discussion

Dear Arnau,

There's currently a discussion about developing a movement strategy, and we are updating links to strategic and priority documents in other languages and projects. I'm pinging you because you indicated interest in such things last year. Warm regards, –SJ talk  05:57, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

Inspire Campaign on content curation & review

I've recently launched an Inspire Campaign to encourage new ideas focusing on content review and curation in Wikimedia projects. Wikimedia volunteers collaboratively manage vast repositories of knowledge, and we’re looking for your ideas about how to manage that knowledge to make it more meaningful and accessible. We invite you to participate and submit ideas, so please get involved today! The campaign runs until March 28th.

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 feedback on ideas is welcome - your skills and experience can help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign to improve review and curation tasks so that we can make our content more meaningful and accessible! I JethroBT (WMF) 05:39, 29 February 2016 (UTC)

Should FuzzyBot remove all potentially outdated translations?

Participate in the Inspire Campaign and help address harassment!

Through June, we’re organizing an Inspire Campaign to encourage and support new ideas focusing on addressing harassment toward Wikimedia contributors. The 2015 Harassment Survey has shown evidence that harassment in various forms - name calling, threats, discrimination, stalking, and impersonation, among others - is pervasive. Available methods and systems to deal with harassment are also considered to be ineffective. These behaviors are clearly harmful, and in addition, many individuals who experience or witness harassment participate less in Wikimedia projects or stop contributing entirely.

Proposals in any language are welcome during the campaign - 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 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 so that we can work together to develop ideas around this important and difficult issue. With thanks,

Community Wishlist Survey 2021: Invitation

The 2021 Community Wishlist Survey is now open! This survey is the process where communities decide what the Community Tech team should work on over the next year. We encourage everyone to submit proposals until the deadline on 30 November, or comment on other proposals to help make them better. The communities will vote on the proposals between 8 December and 21 December.

Community Wishlist Survey 2021

We invite all registered users to vote on the 2021 Community Wishlist Survey. You can vote from now until 21 December for as many different wishes as you want.

In the Survey, wishes for new and improved tools for experienced editors are collected. After the voting, we will do our best to grant your wishes. We will start with the most popular ones.

We, the Community Tech, are one of the Wikimedia Foundation teams. We create and improve editing and wiki moderation tools. What we work on is decided based on results of the Community Wishlist Survey. Once a year, you can submit wishes. After two weeks, you can vote on the ones that you're most interested in. Next, we choose wishes from the survey to work on. Some of the wishes may be granted by volunteer developers or other teams.

We are waiting for your votes. Thank you!
