Русская Вика в дауне. Я добавил   в http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Mainpage между словами "Заглавная" и "страница". Для того, чтобы в меню они не переносились на другую строку. В итоге, из-за знака ";" вся русская Вика ушла в даун с сообщением:

Question concerning Soviet Copyright edit

Hi. I fear you were asked this question a million times before, but I still hope you'd give me an answer. The English Wikipedia lists a certain category of images that are flagged as PD, due to their release prior to May 1973. Could you confirm the information that these pictures are PD ? And do you know anything about the legal situation in Germany concerning these pictures?

Greetings an Best Wishes. - http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Nasiruddin , German Wikipedia, Portal Imperialism and World Wars


Trust in Wikipedia edit

this is Cathy from Hong Kong working on a research about trust on Wikipedia. I wonder if you would kindly contact me at researchingmedia@gmail.com? I'd like to chat with you about Wikipedia of your language. Would you kindly drop me your email or IM (Skype, MSN, AIM or ICQ)? It wouldn't take more than ten minutes, but it would help enormously for us to understand the overall trust-based social landscape of Wikipedia. Thank you!

Disputed image edit

Dear Dr Bug, I don't know why your (and anyone else's) honour should be under discussion for such a case.
I admit I gave an opinion based on Jaroslavleff's words only and without knowing in detail the policies of ru.wiki.
On it.wiki we started to be very cautious and began to remove many pictures for which the situation is not crystal clear. We allowed few exception after discussion, but they mainly refer to "public" information only (coat of arms, road signs and so on).
The cleanest way to solve the problem is to ask the user who uploaded the picture to send an email to permissions@wikimedia.org in which he/she declares under his/her responsibility to have obtained the agreement of the "Olimp" company to use the picture.
Hope this helps. Bye. --Paginazero 13:50, 19 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Chapter stuff edit

Hello Vladimir,

One first comment. There seem to be a confusion in your assessment of what a chapter *is*. Chapters are *not* chapters of the Wikimedia Foundation. They are simply Wikimedia chapters. They are independant legal entities that just share a name and overall goals with the Foundation.

To go back on your list:

  • Management of content rights:
    • Gathering of written GFDL confirmations from authors (to send them to WMF).
      • I don't see that as a necessity from chapters, since this is taken care of by the community, but why not?
        • I mean, to do this in some systematic way. It's quite easier to Russian authors to send letter to Russian address.
    • Issuing approvals for commercial organisations to allow them to use Wikipedia/etc content.
      • Not so much to use the content as to use the trademark. Remember, content is free ;-)
        • Content is of course free, but no one will seriously work in Russia not having a paper with signature (and stamp) allowing him to use the content. So most need some written document confirming that the content is free. What do you think about this? It is a question of responsibility, indeed...
          • Then noone will work with Russia. You have to realize (and I realize that every day) that Wikipedia is a new "way of doing things". No organisation, whether the Wikimedia Foundation or the chapter, should ever take responsibility for a content that's widely known as "user generated content". If they're not going to do anything without a written paper, then...nothing will be done ;-)
    • Commercial activity such as printing Wikipedia/etc or publishing on DVD.
      • Never ever ever. Chapters (as well as the Foundation) should NEVER engage in publishing activities of any kind, print or offline. It is a very important basic point to remember. Authors are responsible for the content. The chapters and the Foundation may work in partnership with publishers so as to help them with publishing the content of the projects (such as the project I talked about on the village pump of a Russian DVD), never become a publisher themselves.
        • It's just due to my bad wording :-). I meant, to arrange agreements with publishers to promote them to publish the products. Again, few here will use here free content non having an agreement at hands.
          • OK.
    • To represent WMF in courts (subject to additional POA from WMF on per case basis).
      • Again, this should never happen. Chapters are legally independant organisations from the Foundation. Although they might assist the Foundation in understanding a legal case, they should never represent the Foundation to avoid the Foundation be liable in a country where it is not by default liable. Having the chapters act as representatives in their country of origin would extend the scope of laws under which the Foundation had to operate. So when the first chapters have been founded, we've made sure that they stayed completely independant from the Foundation. It is our most important line of defence.
        • It's again wrong wording case from me. I meant, to assist WMF in Russia whenever WMF decides it is resonable. For example, in cases of WMF's trademark violations, etc.
        • Then OK :-)
  • Promotion of Wikipedia/etc and of free content ideology.
    • Advertising.
      • Why not ;-)
    • Organisation of meetings and conferences.
      • Yes
    • Lobbying of Copyleft/other free licenses-friendly changes in legislation.
      • Yes
    • To represent WMF in different forums.
      • No, again please forget the "representation" idea. In local forums, Wikimedia Russia would represent Wikimedia Russia. End of the story ;-).
        • I think it's bad wording again. Chapters can not avoid somehow representing WMF and its projects, because they have WM in their title :-). I'll try to explain in more details, what I mean. What if Russian Wikipedia is nominated to some prize? It's some kind of officiality, so prize organizers may need some Russia-registered artificial person to represent the project. How should it be managed? Should local chapters care of it or they should avoid any national prizes?
        • Of course, Wikipedia/etc are community-driven. However, it's sometime inconvient or even impossible to act without having some registered artificial persons, that should somehow represent the community. If it shouldn't be chapter, it's ok with me, but I just a bit in doubt, if chapters can not represent the community at some minor extent, who could? (It's not a rhetoric question, I really interested in answer!)
          • Then the better wording is "act as a real-life emanation of the community when needed". Yes, you're right, getting a prize and stuff can be one of those things. But it also can be that Wikimedia Russia pays the train trip to any random or designated community member ot go and get the prize for example, on behalf of the Wikipedia community. I think the tricky word her eis "representation". A better word would probably be that a chapter will be mandated by the community to do things. It does not by default take the place of the community. If that makes sense.
  • Local technical maintainance:
    • Local cashing servers infrastructure.
      • If the need arises and the chapter does not become liable by hosting content, yes, such as the help that has been provided by Wikimedia Germany in Amsterdam.
    • Local service servers (for bots, mailservers, etc).
      • I would see that as a service to the community, so why not, yes.
        • Of course, to the community. I suppose, everything the charter does, is for the community - either for those who are already users of Wikipedia/etc, of who may become user of it :-).
  • Finances.
    • Managing donations, fundraisings.
      • Yes.

Hope my answers help.

Письмо Кэри Бассу edit

Примерно так:

Сообщество русской Википедии организует первую Викиконференцию - см. ru:Википедия:Викиконференция 2007 (пока, к сожалению, только по-русски). Она должна состояться 27-28 октября в Санкт-Петербурге (Россия). Как только будет определённость с местом проведения, будет сделан краткий пресс-релиз, который мы обязательно переведём на английский язык (ориентировочно - в начале следцующей недели).

Для общения с различными организациями орг. комитету очень помог бы e-mail вида "ruwikiconference(at)wikimedia.org". Можем ли мы попросить Фонд выделить нам такой e-mail хотя бы временно, на период конференции? Это нужно для использования в пресс-релизах и переписки с потенциальными участниками - ВУЗами и иными консервативными организациями.

На наш взгляд, это мог бы быть адрес, перенаправляемый на специальный лист рассылки, участниками которого будут члены оргкомитета. По нашему мнению, это не должно согздать большой нагрузки на сервера Фонда.

Можно ли рассчитывать на такую помощь ?

С уважением, и т.п.

--Kaganer 17:09, 10 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ok, here is the translation with my minor adjustments, I will copy it to Cary:

The Russian Wikipedia (and other mediawikis) community is organising its first WikiConference (ru:Википедия:Викиконференция 2007 - unfortunately, in Russian only yet; it might be something like Wikimania 2006). It is planned on October 27-28 in St.Petersburg (Russia). As soon as we make a final choice where exactly it will be held, we will issue a short press-release, which we are going to translate in English (hopefully in beginning next week).

In order to contact various organisations, a e-mail like "ruwikiconference(at)wikimedia.org" would be quite useful for the organisation committee. Could we ask the Foundation to grant us such an address at least temporarily? We need it for use in press-releases and when writing to potential participans like universities and other rather conservative institutions.

As we see it, it could be a e-mail address redirected to a mail list used by the wikiconference organisation committee members. We suppose it couldn't cause any significant load on the Foundation's servers.

Could you please advise us if we could get a help like this, or how we would handle this problem else?

Falsification by ru.wikipedia.org checkusers edit

Thank you very much for finally revealing to the public the terrible behavior of ru.wikipedia.org checkusers.

I would like to follow up on that. This is regarding falsifications by ru.wikipedia.or checkusers and the so-called "arbkom". I already wrote about this to Kv75, but he did not reply.

I was accused of having the following sockpuppets which do not belong to me and cannot have any intersection with my IP address (and you know my IP address): :ru:User:+Shipilov, :ru:User:VirginiaRules, :ru:!WaMu, :ru:User:!MaiBan, :ru:User:Parrots, :ru:User:Popinjay, :ru:User:NSB, :ru:User:Попугай 1973, :ru:User:WaiFai2. In particular, here Kv75 attributed an account to me. Recently DR attriburted another account to me, and preveiously he found an intersection of one of these accounts with some other "active use", not me, but refused to report who that was.

So, my request to you is to check these accounts and the checkuser logs, investigate and explain who orchestrated these falsifications and why. SA ru 15:02, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

OK. Let me put it little differently. Given your own words:

Если бы спросили, то получили бы ответ, который я неоднократно давал, в том числе на выборах в Арбком почти два года назад (там пояснение сформулировано сразу под под «пьедесталом изложения подходов»): флаг проверяющего нужен мне для следующих вещей:

  • контролировать отсутствие нарушений со стороны других проверяющих;
  • принимать участие в разрешении сложных случаев, что приводит к более разносторонней оценке ситуации;
  • иметь возможность компенсировать выпадение из работы других проверяющих (я имею возможность продемонстрировать это на примере флага бюрократа: пока был активен Томас, моя постоянная активная работа не требовалась; сейчас, когда у Томаса возникли проблемы, я оперативно выполняю все необходимые действия).
I conclude that you knew very well that the above named accounts did not belong to me. Nonetheless, you approved the falsification, which makes you a falsifier yourself (which is not a big surprise after the story with :ru:User:Kavel). SA ru (talk) 06:29, 19 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Sorry for delay. Unfortunately, I can't help you now: I've suspended by checkuser actions. I didn't check +Shipilov and others. However, I don't understand why are you interested in those checks. Whether or not theses +Shipilov, etc. were controlled by you, it currently doesn't change fate of your account. If you wish it to be unblocked at ru, you should apply to Arbcom... Dr Bug (Vladimir V. Medeyko) 16:21, 19 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Hi Drbug, Let's not pretend to be crazy here. I need your confirmation that +Shipilov and others is not me because I want to get the record straight. Falsification is a serious misconduct. You are a checkuser, so please go ahead and check these accounts or read the log. This is your job. Unblocking me in ru.wikipedia.org would be also good because I am a good author and I did not deserve to be blocked (I did not violate any rules as you know very well). You are a sysop; you can unblock me if you want. I do not care about the "arbcom" because at least 3 arbiters are not trustworthy. Please check out this page and leave your comments. SA ru 17:29, 19 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
You are quite active in your political games in ru.wikipedia.org these days, but cannot respond to a simple checkuser request. By the way, I do not believe your explanation ("отмазке") that you know nothing because you did not conduct the check. According to your own declaration, you had access to the logs for a long time (and on some other occasion you stated that you check the logs regularly, as a control function), so you saw the sockpuppet IP addresses. If you lost the logs, ask Kv75 to give them to you. Of particular interest is the "accidental" intersection of one of ru.wiki users to one of the puppets (DR concealed the user name). So, who was that user? SA ru 14:49, 20 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
У ДрБага осталась вся чекюзерская рассылка где обсуждается кто чей виртуал. Итоги проверок есть у Kv75 безусловно, он их сохранил на случай перепроверки у стюардов или омбудсменов. Serebr 17:11, 21 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Of course Drbug has all the logs in his disposable, and he can inspect these checks without any problem. As a matter of fact, it would be wise of him to send these documents to the ombudsman committee and honestly report all the misconduct of ru.wikipedia.org checkusers. SA ru 18:30, 21 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Ok, I'll check on wednesday next week if you remind me. Dr Bug (Vladimir V. Medeyko) 20:03, 21 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. Don't forget to get the name of the active user who "accidentally" intersected with his puppets. SA ru 23:47, 21 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Reminder edit

I am reminding you upon your request. SA ru 00:21, 26 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the reminder!
I didn't remember any details on +Shipilov incindent.
However, as for :ru:User:VirginiaRules and others, I remember these. I participated the discussion and confirm that findings of checkusers are quite reasonable.
Now I find that +Shipilov is tied with these accounts, and conclude that the findings look to be correct.
Of course, CheckUser is not magic wiki pixie dust, especially recalling The Avsyannikov case.
However, I don't see any possible cause for mistakes in these contested cases, sorry. From the checkuser point of view, the conclusion looks quite firm.
If you are sure that it wasn't you, it means that there is one who knows too much about you, who is quite powerful, who wishes to set up you, and who passes the duck test in all imaginable aspects. Dr Bug (Vladimir V. Medeyko) 23:02, 26 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
"Попугайчики" продолжили свою деятельность, и Смартассу удалось показать свой IP параллельно с подражателем, ранее прошедшим "утиный тест" в арбкоме. Таким образом, предыдущие выводы чекюзеров оказались опровергнутыми, формального подтверждения чего от Вас и просят. Serebr 00:22, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Собственно Вас просили не написать очередную отписку а поднять ВСЕ логи проверок Смартасса (его записи - Smartass2008, Smartass2009, Smartass2010, InkognitoIzPeterburga) и его подражателей - полный список тоже можно попытаться вспомнить, и написать обоснованный честный итог. Serebr 00:28, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
OK. You confirmed our original suspicion that you are a liar. That's a good thing that you are no longer a checkuser and hopefully all other flags will be soon removed from you. In your provocative statement you missed one "little" piece of information: these sockpuppets do not intersect with my IPs and have a different geographical location. Of course we do not know where they are located (you know, though), but from you avoiding even speaking about the IP addresses it is clear that this location is quite distant. Additionally, we have very good memory and remember what you wrote 2 or even 3 years ago. Comparison of those statements to the present one permits to make certain conclusions about you. Good bye and once again I hope you are removed from Wikipedia "administration" soon. SA ru 13:13, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

If I had disclosed any specific information on IPs and geolocations, you would have been the first in line to condemn me for disclosing your private information. I would like to repeat once more: if it wasn't you, it was someone who knows too much about you, including your geolocation, of course. If you consider this a mistake, and if you wish to fix it, you should behave quite differently than you actually do. For example, if you are interested in unblocking under mentorship, I could try to assist, despite you offend me. Dr Bug (Vladimir V. Medeyko) 14:53, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

I would be certainly the first in line to condemn you for disclosing my private information which is not of anybody's business (including you and Wulfson for this matter). If you disclosed the IP of +Shipilov I personally would not worry too much, but you are certainly bound by the privacy policy. All what was needed from you is just a simple confirmation that +Shipilov's IP addresses do not match mine. This would not break any policy, and nobody would condemn you for telling the truth. Yes, I was disappointed by you because at the bottom of my heart (so to say) I hoped that some honesty is left in you. I got this impression from reading your writings lately. Well... Who knows, may be there is still hope. Why don't we try to communicate normally for starters, without any pretence? Checkuser logs are not rocket science, you know; and I can assure you that I have nothing to do with those sockpuppets. Just confirm that there is no IP match, and this will be enough. All the speculations about "someone knowing me very well" are inappropriate for several reasons. The first reason is that, to quote yourself, this would be trying to invade too much in my personal affairs. Second, you yourself fit this description perfectly (I hope you do not need to be reminded why). Since you are not me (I hope you believe in that) then this could be any person with highly developed curiosity like you. What do I have to do with that? This is beyond my control. In any way, let's close that particular topic; you yourself explained very well recently that such issues should be out of checkuser scope. Regarding your proposal of unblocking me, why not? I am a reasonable author, I would not mind participating in another project. I even share some of your opinions which you recently expressed (or, better, repeated something that I proposed several years ago). My only concern is about the arbitration committee. If you could negotiate this deal privately, without any shows like arbitration committee hearings, that's fine with me. Let' continue talking about this deal on this page. SA ru 16:51, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Your question sounds bizzare. Of course, evidently, there was no direct digit by digit match, otherwises the reports would sound quite differently. Disclosing any details on +Shipilov would inevitably disclose your private information, it's why I neither agree to disclose any more details nor I see any faults in the findings. Believe me, +Shipilov is really close to you. Therefore checkusers and anyone who would probably inspect them conclude that it's your creatures indeed, and nothing on the Earth could change this conclusion. So, I agree, let's close this topic. Let's better take as basis my assumption of your good faith, and try to go forward.
Of course, I could first try to discuss the unblocking privately. But the final hearings should be public anyway. I guess that you won't be allowed to make edits ouside the main space and your user/talk page, and it will be prohibited to use them in manner as you used to do. I can't describe it in right words, but I guess that you understand what it means - no things like "APE" and "smartassisms"... Which limitation do you agree to suffer? Dr Bug (Vladimir V. Medeyko) 20:00, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Part 1. My old friend Drbug! Are you trying to play with me or something? (I do remember that you said once that you often say stuff just to observe the other person's reaction.) You are saying that my questions sound bizarre, but I did not ask you any questions. I just commented on your speculations about "someone who knows me very well" and noted that you and Wulfson after repeatedly checking on my private information know me pretty well. Since this private information was given to the checkusers (7 people), arbiters (up to 10 people) and other undisclosed users, the number of potential suspects (of the kind you describe) can be pretty high. This is not something bizarre, this is just a simple comment on you statement. In any way, as I explained, knowing me very well is not the checkuser business (you and Wulfson in particular), and I would not advise you continuing your inquiries. The fact of the matter is that I have nothing to do with +Shipilov and Co. I repeated this to you several times. I take your statement that "there was no direct digit by digit match" as an acknowledgment that the IP addresses did not match. Thank you. Further, according to your checkuser friend (or whom you consider your friend or whatever), the distance between +Shipilov and me is 870 km. He wrote about this to someone, and that someone gave this information to me. I do not know whether this is true or not true, but this statement clearly contradicts your assurance that +Shipilov is very close to me. 870 km is not close. (Distance from St Petersburg to Moscow, isn't it?) You should remember once and forever that after I was banned in ru.wiki I did not make appearances there with the exception of a few edits by Smartass2009, Smartass2010 and IncognitoIzPeterburga which were made simply to show the checkusers my real IP address. Actually, if your were more observant you would notice that the distance between IncognitoIzPeterburga (at the time of registration) and yet another sockpuppet blocked by DR (I do not remember the name; can get it if you want) was not 870 km, but much more. Actually, there was one more recent edit -- by safari just to tell a few words to Wulfson. That was it. Since I am not involed in the project, I do not appreciate these stupid accusations in sockpuppetry. They are especially annoying for me because I do not have any control over this stuff. It seems that each time Shipilov edits, his edits are automatically attributed to me. This is not good. I do not want to share authorship with this creature. Hopefully we can reach some understanding here. SA ru 21:44, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Part 2. Regarding "limitations that I agree to suffer", I actually do not agree to suffer any limitations. I did not violate Wikipedia rules to at an extent that would justify an indefinite block. Certainly, my past actions could be classified as "trolling" or whatever, but they were not much different from what other people did, and this stuff was considered permissible at the time. I know how to play by the rules, and I do not see any point in limiting my rights in any way. So, this is out of question. As far as my activities outside Wikipedia (making fun of you guys), I may be agreeable to change those. This should not be a problem. I certainly do not agree to any "public hearing" because that's complete nonsense. Just have whoever blocked me unblock me, and this should be it. Since you are trying to lead the project, you should understand that removing good authors is not a good idea. Compare, for example, yourself to me. You contribution to encyclopedic content is about zero. If you are blocked tomorrow nobody would even notice. On the other hand, if I re-enter the project, I would write articles and have a solid contribution to the encyclopedia. It is obvious that I am a much more valuable author compared to you. From this point of view, your proposal to restrict my edits sounds simply ridiculous. SA ru 21:57, 27 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Evidently you are not interested in my assistance, as I see no your point in insulting me. Well, it's up to you.
Anyway, you are smart enough to understand that any attempt to unblock you without restrictions imposed has zero chances to be accepted by the Arbrom and by the community. Dr Bug (Vladimir V. Medeyko) 06:05, 28 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I am mostly interested in law and order in Wikipedia. If one checkuser (Kv75) tells someone in private mail that +Shipilov resides in a place 870 km from me, and the other (Drbug) claims that +Shipilov is real close to me, that's not law and order, my friend. This is called lying and breaking the rules. I am not playing this game, and this is exactly why I am not accepting any restrictions on my rights as a wikipedian. Wikipedia is a free project where anyone is free to edit as long as he follows the rules. Wikipedia is a project that guarantees user anonymity and where checkusers are supposed to follow privacy policy. If someone tries to create a different model -- call it "arbcom" or even "community" -- that's not law and order. You may think that law and order have zero chances, but you will see, they will be restored. SA ru 14:10, 28 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Ok, I wouold be happy to see law and order... Dr Bug (Vladimir V. Medeyko) 22:23, 1 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

User agent? edit

I thought about your obscure statements a bit more and also remembered something what Wulfson (better Molchalin) wrote in livejournal, and it donned on me that the intersection between me and +Shipilov may be through the user agent. I think I understand now what you think. You presume that I use a laptop to connect to the internet when I travel, and the user agent is the same as I had several years ago. However, this is completely wrong. I did have a laptop, but it broke ~2 years ago (or even more), and currently I do not own a laptop. Well, if +Shipilov reproduced the user agent from that laptop, then that's very bad. This means that one of the checkusers copied my former user agent and used it for those provocations. One of you guys may be involved: you, Wulfson, Codemonk, EvgenyGinkin, Wind or DR. EvgenyGenkin looks the most suspicious to me. That's a pity that you do not have the checkuser flag anymore. I would recommend that you check EvgenyGenkin thoroughly. In any way, this once again shows that having checkusers as a conspiracy that conducts private investigations is very bad. Instead of conducting investigations you should have simply asked me, and I would have clarified all your questions. SA ru 15:56, 28 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Now I assume your good faith. So you don't need to prove me anything - I assume that you have nothing common with these accounts.
On the other hand, I see that there are no chances to convince those who is unable to assume good faith.
I agree that the conspiracy should be reduced, and I'm going to try to do it slowly... Dr Bug (Vladimir V. Medeyko) 22:15, 1 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
I am actually not particularly interested in what you assume about me. From the way you answer to my questions it is clear to me that you are a liar. This conversation is finished. Good bye. SA ru 17:38, 4 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

О нездоровой нравственной атмосфере в Википедии edit

Я не могу писать на Вашей странице обсуждения в Википедии, потому что Alex Smotrov, якобы находящийся в вики-отпуске, заблокировал мой IP-адрес. Если Вы считаете, что названный администратор Википедии злоупотребил своими полномочиями, тогда разблокируйте мой IP-адрес.

0) Вы написали на Вашей странице обсуждения, что к Вам можно обратиться,
1) я пишу Вам о нездоровой нравственной атмосфере в Русском разделе Wikipedia,
2) из вики-отпуска появляется Ваш приятель Alex Smotrov и блокирует возможность обращения к Вам.

Насколько я понимаю, заместитель главного редактора "Компьютерра" И. Щуров не только практик, но и теоретик борьбы с "деструктивным" и "неэтичным" поведением в Русском разделе Wikipedia. Например, И. Щуров полагает, что названный раздел Wikipedia - это "страшное место" (цитирую И. Щурова).

Я не удивился. когда названный пропагандист "свободной энциклопедии" как "страшного места" воспользовался Википедией для "разоблачения" "уважаемого Галактиона" как лица с "деструктивным поведением".

Вы присутствовали при этом "разоблачении".

Wikimedia Venezuela edit

Hello,

I am writing to ask you a question regarding the status of our still pending request of Wikimedia Venezuela to become a local Wikimedia Chapter. We have started gathering people and ideas since October 2010, organised a series of lectures for Wikipedia TEN. Our proposed bylaws have been reviewed by members of the ChapCom as early as May 2011. We were informed that in June-July 2011, our proposal was scheduled to be submitted to voting and, as of October 2, 2011, we are yet to receive a notification, either approval, rejection, suggestions...we have received only silence. What is going on? What has delayed the ChapCom to close the voting on our case? Working groups in other countries have submitted their proposals/requests to form a local WikimediaChapter more or less at the same time that we did, and they have been approved already. Why not Wikimedia Venezuela? What is wrong with us? If we were told what is wrong with us, we could work it out and fix whatever is needed...but with no input, we are left sitting in the waiting room for months..

Could you please tell us what is delaying our approval? What do we have to do?

Our people (37) is anxious and wondering what is going on. We were more people, but we feel dissapointed and discouraged, and this doesn't help us at all. Could you please give us an update?

Many, many thanks in advance from Venezuela.

Уважаемый Dr.Bug!

Прошу Вас помочь в проеснении ситиуации по поводу нашей анкеты. Мы подали анкету для принятия нас в качестве отделения Фонда Викимедиа летом текущего года (Июль 2011). Во время Викимании 2011 в Хайфе нам сообщили, что вопрос уже вышел на обсуждения членами Чапкома. Однако уже ноябрь, а мы еще не получили каких-либо рекоммендации или предложений. Ответили на все вопросы на странице обсуждения казахского отделения.

Хочу сообщить, что сейчас деятельность по продвижению вики проектов в Казахстане ведется зарегистрированным юридическим лицом, некоммерческой организацией "Общественный Фонд "WikiBilim". Также мы участвовали на саммите Creative Commons в Варшаве. Процесс солгосования с СС подходит к завершению.

Хочу попросить Вас, как активного члена Чапкома, содействовать в решении нашего вопроса в кратчайшие сроки. Надеюсь на Ваше понимание и содействие.

С уважением,

This is a message from the Wikimedia Foundation. Translations are available.

 

As you may know, the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees approved a new "Access to nonpublic information policy" on 25 April 2014 after a community consultation. The former policy has remained in place until the new policy could be implemented. That implementation work is now being done, and we are beginning the transition to the new policy.

An important part of that transition is helping volunteers like you sign the required confidentiality agreement. All Wikimedia volunteers with access to nonpublic information are required to sign this new agreement, and we have prepared some documentation to help you do so.

The Wikimedia Foundation is requiring that OTRS volunteers sign the new confidentiality agreement by 31 December 2015 to retain their access. You are receiving this email because you have been identified as an OTRS volunteer and are required to sign the confidentiality agreement under the new policy. If you do not sign the new confidentiality agreement by 31 December 2015, you will lose your OTRS access. OTRS volunteers have a specific agreement available, if you have recently signed the general confidentiality agreement for another role (such as CheckUser or Oversight), you do not need to sign the general agreement again, but you will still need to sign the OTRS agreement.

Signing the confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information is conducted and tracked using Legalpad on Phabricator. We have prepared a guide on Meta-Wiki to help you create your Phabricator account and sign the new agreement: Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information/How to sign

If you have any questions or experience any problems while signing the new agreement, please visit this talk page or email me (gvarnum wikimedia.org). Again, please sign this confidentiality agreement by 31 December 2015 to retain your OTRS access. If you do not wish to retain this access, please let me know and we will forward your request to the appropriate individuals.

Thank you,
Gregory Varnum (User:GVarnum-WMF), Wikimedia Foundation

Глобальная блокировка edit

Здравствуйте! Вы написали письмо в мою защиту в адрес Vituzzu, за что я благодарен Вам

I guess there were good reasons for Vituzzu to globally block this range. But it seems that it also may block legitimate users from Lipetsk. At least we got a message from a user, and he also wrote to Vituzzu publicly: [2]. The reading on the Vituzzu's talk page recommends to write the requests here instead. I checked the ISP that owns the range, and it seems that it's definitely NOT hosting provider only. The requester to my best knowledge, ФВ is legitimate, have written a lot of articles and never have been blocked. Could you please check the situation and unblock the range, or maybe I shoud provide him IP blocks exempt (however there may be other legitimate users from Lipetsk as well)? Dr Bug (Vladimir V. Medeyko) 15:15, 9 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Drbug: from what I can see p3.ru is a colo facility. The range doesn't seem to be allocated to residential customers do you know of more users caught? If only ФВ is caught it may be caused by some malware affecting ФВ's devices. --Vituzzu (talk) 13:04, 11 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Разблокирование в РуВики edit

Привет Drbug.

Прошу Вас посмотреть мою глобальную личную страницу и дать мне свои предложения о том, что ещё необходимо оттуда удалить, чтобы Вы могли разблокировать её видимость из РуВики (удалить установленную там заглушку с того места, где не должно быть моей локальной личной страницы).

Вторая, более существенная, просьба: снять своим единоличным решением все блокировки в РуВики, или хотя бы согласиться стать там моим наставником. Блокировки были наложены за нарушения правила ОРИСС, а наставничество потребовано в связи с якобы непониманием мной этого правила. Однако правило это я, на мой взгляд, понимаю абсолютно ясно, и намерен его строго соблюдать в дальнейшем в РуВики, если туда вернусь.

Пояснение по правилу ОРИСС. Некоторые темы без его нарушения раскрыть, на мой вгляд, просто невозможно (большинство других - можно). Поэтому я не собираюсь вносить существенных правок в РуВики в статьи, аналогичные тем, в которые я вношу существенные правки в Викиверситете, где ОРИСС считаются допустимыми. Перечень этих статей Викиверситета Вы можете увидеть на моей глобальной ЛСУ здесь на мете.

Обращаюсь именно к Вам по двум причинам: во-первых, на мой взгляд, у Вас в РуВики есть хоть какой-то иммунитет, а во-вторых, на мой взгляд, я исчерпал все другие возможности (обращения к заблокировавшему администратору, другим администраторам и в арбитраж РуВики; последнюю мою заявку здесь на мете арбитр прочитал, обещал обсудить, но потом просто перестал отвечать, и я был вынужден ту заявку отозвать).

С уважением и надеждой на взаимопонимание, Victor Manohin (talk) 08:18, 13 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

Снова здравствуйте, Drbug.


Возможно Вас удивил вопрос арбитра. Он возник у него потому, что я подал иск в арбитраж РуВики m:User:Victor Manohin/заявка в арбитраж РуВики о разблокировании, в котором указал Вас как заинтересованную сторону. Но только в рамках альтернативных требований. Поскольку я не понимал причин Вашего длительного (более 16-ти месяцев) игнорирования моего личного обращения. Но теперь Вы пояснили причину арбитру, и я тоже увидел Ваше пояснение.

Надеюсь, Вы подправите техническую погрешность в ответе арбитру: добавите "m:" перед именем своей страницы обсуждения участника (СОУ) на Мете, чтобы по Вашей ссылке происходил переход действительно туда, куда Вы хотели.

Надеюсь также, что теперь Вы найдете время и для меня, чтобы решить между нами вопрос в доарбитражном порядке.

С уважением, Victor Manohin (talk) 12:15, 5 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Дополнил Victor Manohin (talk) 19:06, 5 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Техническое дополнение: после подачи упомянутой выше заявки в арбитраж РуВики там были дважды опубликованы ссылки на эту мою заявку в разделах форумов w:ru:Википедия:Форум арбитров#Январский дайджест и w:ru:Википедия:Форум администраторов#Требуется наставник.

Дополнение по существу: очевидно (мне), что арбитры не собираются рассматривать заявку по сути без вовлечения в конфликт новых участников в качестве наставников. Поэтому этот давний замороженный конфликт и на этот раз тоже не получится устранить в арбитраже тем простым путем, который я предложил в заявке. Вся надежда теперь только на Ваше единоличное решение, и на то, что у Вас все-таки есть полномочия принять такое решение. Victor Manohin (talk) 16:03, 14 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Сократил и уточнил Victor Manohin (talk) 16:44, 15 January 2021 (UTC)Reply


Еще раз здравсвтвуйте, уважаемый Dr Bug (Владимир² Медейко).

Тема w:ru:Википедия:Форум администраторов#Требуется наставник вчера была закрыта (подвели итог: желающих нет). Уведомитьл в ручном режиме по википочте всех администраторов РуВики о ее открытии удались лишь частично. Уведомил всех администарторов РуВики, чьи ники состоят из русских букв, и тех, чьи ники начинаются с латинских буква a,b,c,d. В том числе и вас, как администратора. Потом сработала защита википочты от злоупотреблений однотипными действиями за короткое время. "Несколько минут", через которые предлагается повторить попытку действия, оказалось намного дольше. Боюсь даже, что это навсегда.

Теперь о деле. Я обращался и обращаюсь именно к Вам не только как к администратору РуВики, но и как к ее директору, то есть реальному администратору. Для того, чтобы решить покинуть проект РуВики добровольно, мне необходимо получить от Вас прямой отказ от разблокирования меня единоличным директорским решением и прямой отказ от наставничества надо мной в РуВики в процессе обещанного арбитрами рассмотрения моей заявки, нацеленной на устранение давнего замороженного конфликта.

К сожалению, Вы уже более месяца не активны нигде в проектах фонда Викимедиа. Но такое бывало и раньше. Надеюсь, что когда-нибудь снова появитесь и отреагируете на это мое обращение. А до тех пор я буду пока вынужден пребывать в РуВики в статусе изнанного.

В принципе, я уже почти готов покинуть возглавляемый Вами проект РуВики добробольно, но не вижу техничевской возможности сделать это понятным для других учасников образом.
