Fundraising translation feedback edit

Hey Daniele Pugliesi, I have a bit of a request to ask from you. We pulled down our banners nearly a fortnight ago for what was a highly successful international fundraiser and brought the curtain down on last years fundraiser. This week however we will be changing payment processors and during the testing of the new system it would be useful to use the time productively on on testing banner text.

To help us out with this I wonder if you would be willing to help us improve our italian text using This Link

Simply follow the simple instructions on that page and if you have any questions feel free to contact me on my talk page.


We are going to run the test on tuesday so if you dont see this message till 24 hours after it was sent you can ignore me :) Many Thanks though.

English/Italian translations edit

Dear Daniele, I am contacting you to introduce myself. My name is Jessica Robell and I have recently joined the Wikimedia Foundation as a part of the fundraising team. My work will be focused to a large extent around translations. I am very interested in finding engaged Wikipedians, such as yourself, who would be interested in contributing with their time to translate shorter text from English to Italian. We have for example recently put up a 'Thank you letter' from the Wikimedia Foundation's ED Sue Gardner for translation, using the translation extension. You can find the letter here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Fundraising%2FTranslation%2FThank+you+email+20131202&language=it&filter=translated&action=translate I would be most grateful to get your help to translate/proofread this letter in order to develop a quality translation in Italian. Furthermore, in addition to using the translation extension, my aim is to develop a few personal contacts to whom I can reach out with potential questions regarding a particular word choice etc. As an engaged Wikipedia translator, I would be very interested in hearing your view on this.

Thank you very much for your support. I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,

Jessica Robell Global Fundraising Coordinator Wikimedia Foundation

Letter petitioning WMF to reverse recent decitions edit

The Wikimedia Foundation recently created a new feature, "superprotect" status. The purpose is to prevent pages from being edited by elected administrators -- but permitting WMF staff to edit them. It has been put to use in only one case: to protect the deployment of the Media Viewer software on German Wikipedia, in defiance of a clear decision of that community to disable the feature by default, unless users decide to enable it.

If you oppose these actions, please add your name to this letter. If you know non-Wikimedians who support our vision for the free sharing of knowledge, and would like to add their names to the list, please ask them to sign an identical version of the letter on change.org.

I'm notifying you because you participated in one of several relevant discussions. -Pete F (talk) 22:03, 20 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Superprotect letter update edit

Hi Daniele Pugliesi,

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) 18:28, 26 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Segnalo edit

Segnalo Grants:IdeaLab/Reddit Science AMA + PLOS + Wikipedia, anche se credo se funziona, funzionerà solo per enwiki. Si collega all'idea di LinkedIn avuta mesi fa.--Alexmar983 (talk) 09:04, 24 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

si meritano supporto per averci almeno creduto, e provato. Magari va anche meglio del previsto. Il problema è che le piattaforme social sono ancora poco interagenti con wiki, il che non è un "male assoluto" ma ci sono oggettivamente delle potenzialità che si perdono. Un'altra proposta forse più semplice che ho letto settimane fa prevede di contattare utenti femmina su flickr (dove i profili riportano l'informazione) per spingerli a caricare immagini anche su commons, in modo da ridurre il gender gap. Non so quanto queste iniziative avranno successo, magari non le condivido al 100%, ma sicuramente c'è molto da imparare per il futuro.--Alexmar983 (talk) 16:10, 24 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
che facebook su cose "discorsive" funzioni non stupisce, ma è comunque un utile precedente. certo è evidente che chiunque crei questi gruppi è avvantaggiato se ha un flag avanzato (prendi l'OTRS, per riallacciarsi a quanto detto sotto: è diverso se puoi autorizzare velocemente i testi che ti vengono proposti per integrare una pagina no?). Non so se possa funzionare su argomenti scientifici, sicuro che non conenga prima di facebook provare almeno un gruppo su LinkedIn come avevamo detto? Io sono gestore di più gruppi su LinkedIn, per questo ho un know how sufficiente, ma è evidente che si tratterebbe di un gruppo multiculturale e per farlo andrebbe impostata una proposta su meta (o cross-wiki, partendo da enwiki) comunque (anche se non vogliamo dei soldi). Potrei informarmi in giro, fra le tante cose da fare, ma ribadisco come detto sopra che se mi trovassi nel pool qualche utente con funzioni avanzate sarebbe meglio. Alcune discussioni sarebbero inevitabilmente postate da POV pusher, finché si tratta di campanilismi la cosa è certo più innocua che con dati p.e. medici o tecnologici, ma qualcuno pronto a dare un'occhiata e proteggere le voci sarebbe meglio averlo. Poi magari non ce ne è bisogno, ma suona più professionale. --Alexmar983 (talk) 08:33, 25 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

OTRS edit

A proposito, ma poi ti accontenti di Yiyi e lasci perdere o ti candidi? Cosa hai deciso?--Alexmar983 (talk) 16:10, 24 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

non ho capito il verbo "elaborare" a cosa si riferisce, comunque io ti consiglio di leggere OTRS/Recruiting. In OTRS/Volunteering puoi proporre la candidatura (inviando anche l'apposita mail), l'unica vera scelta che devi fare è indicare le liste in cui essere attivi che nel tuo caso sono a occhio quelle info-it it-wikipedia. Prima di farlo puoi sempre chiedere agli operatori attivi cosa ne pensano. Ho visto che Sannita ha commentato la proposta di Yiyi, forse può dare un parere preliminare anche sulla tua.
Dal mio punto di vista finché si tratta di dare informazioni o di valutare l'idoneità di un testo che non è nascosto in una crono ma ti viene inviato in modo chiaro via mail, sei abbastanza autonomo. Puoi i primi tempi anche solo limitarti a smaltire richieste di wikipediani che conosci meglio. Altro aspetto positivo sarebbe anche familiarizzare con gli altri operatori, andrebbe ristabilito un po' di networking dopo qualche anno che molti sono poco attivi (e questo aiuterebbe nel processare prima anche le tue richieste, con ogni probabilità, io ho risolto alcuni problemi inviando una mail personale invece che solo all'indirizzo generale). In ogni caso il fatto che si sia verificato un Backlog considerevole negli ultimi tempi sulle liste in italiano, e che due utenti te l'abbiano suggerito indipendentemente (Nemo, io) lasciano ben sperare che non ci sia un vero motivo di rigettare la tua candidatura (come vedi non ci sono molti pareri espressi). Detto questo, fai tu.--Alexmar983 (talk) 08:20, 25 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
