Dumbo

Could you expand the page for Dumbo in fo Wikipedia like you did for Bambi? Also, last year Darkoneko deleted The Fox and the Hound, do you think you could restore it? 98.90.177.126 21:19, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I have restored The Fox and the Hound and corrected some errors (language). I will expand the page for Dumbo later. Best regards EileenSanda (talk) 10:27, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

What's the difference between grundaður and byggir? And does it matter when you use varð or var? Also how do you say the Danish word komponeret in Faroese? 64.134.158.140 23:41, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

"grundaður á" and "byggir á" means something similar. The word "grund" means "ground" or "fundament", can be translated into "is based on", "byggir á" means the same, "byggir" means "build", is built on, or as in this translation, "is based on", both words can be used in this connection (the film is based on ...). The word "var" can also have a different spelling "varð", but a bit different meaning, the pronounciantion is the same, so even we who speak Faroese as our mother tongue can find it difficult to know, when to spell it with or without the "ð". The rule is, that when we can say "blíva" ("to be" or "should be") in stead of "varð", it should be spelled with an ð. When the meaning is "was" it should not have an ð. I think that the Faroese word for "komponeret" is "leikstjórnaður" (i.e. "filmurin var leikstjórnaður av ... / the film was composed by ... or in present tense: "filmurin er leikstjórnaður av") or (name leikstjórnaði filmin / name composed the film). You could also say (name has composed the film / name hevur leikstjórnað filmin)

Hi, ok, thanks, I didn't know about that! EileenSanda (talk) 21:14, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

Could you correct on The Rescuers "Musikken bleiv komponeret av Artie Butler, og teksterne varð skrevet av Carol Connors, Ayn Robbins, og Sammy Faina." please? 64.134.62.97 13:42, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

• On The Fox and the Hound, it says "Filmurin er framleiddur av Walt Disney Productions og varð frumsýndur fyrstu ferð í Amerika hin 10. juli 1981 í Amerika." I want to change the last part to "og varð frumsýndur hin 10. juli 1981 í Amerika og 30. juni 1995 í Danmark." But it's blocked. Could you please fix it? Thanks. 69.85.217.198 23:00, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

I would like to know how to say "Første gang, den blev udgivet på VHS-bånd i USA, var i 1994." on the article. The Fox and the Hound was released on video in 1994. 64.134.62.97 01:24, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

Could you translate fo:The Lion King? I know the Danish title is Løvernes Konge, but what would the title in Faroese be? This text comes from the Danish Wikipedia: "Det er 32. film fra Disneys klassikere og er endnu ikke blevet overgået, som studiets største økonomiske tegnefilmssucces. Mange mener, at Løvernes Konge markerede afslutningen på Disneys renæssance.

Filmen handler om en ung løve i Afrika kaldt Simba, der må overgå forskellige hindringer for at overtage sin far som løvernes konge." 99.56.74.218 23:43, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

Ready for translation: VisualEditor News #9—2014

Hi! This is an invitation to join translators working on the November's issue of the VisualEditor monthly newsletter, which will be widely delivered later this week. The previous bulletin was published in 10 languages, but the translation was completed only for three of them. Will we do better this month? We'd like to reach many more communities in their own language this time, as we're announcing interesting developments like the new ability to add tables and their elements. Thanks a lot for your help! Elitre (WMF) 21:28, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

PS: Here are some instructions. Please go to the translation page: your language should be available from the drop-down menu on the right. 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. If you need further help or would like to receive a talk page message to be notified of future translations, please contact me directly.

Hi! Apologies if you're reading this message more than once. This is an invitation to join translators working on the February's issue of the VisualEditor multilingual newsletter. This time it features an important announcement about a series of meetings where VE tasks on Phabricator will be triaged live and publicly, starting next week. Since we want many people to be aware of this ASAP (especially volunteer developers!), we have a time constraint which means we'll deliver to the wikis on Thursday morning PST this week. Thanks a lot in advance, we know you'll do whatever it takes to keep your community up-to-date, and appreciate it a lot. m:User:Elitre (WMF), 22:08, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Ready for translation: VisualEditor News #2—2015

Hi! This is an invitation to join translators working on the April's issue of the VisualEditor monthly newsletter, which will be widely delivered towards the end of next week. The previous bulletin was published in 26 languages—the translation was completed only for ten of them. Will we do better this month? We'd like to reach many more communities in their own language this time, as VE recently became the main editor at other 50+ Wikipedias, and we're announcing interesting developments (auto-fill features for citations, improved special character inserter, drag and drop for categories, invisible templates now marked by a puzzle piece icon, and more).

Early invitation: join VisualEditor's 2015 Translathon

Hello!

You are invited to join the 2nd edition of the VisualEditor Translathon! It is a translation rally, focused on interface messages and help pages related to VisualEditor.

In order to participate, you need to sign up on the Translathon page. The top 3 contributors will each win a Wikipedia t-shirt of their choice from the Wikipedia store. Translations made between July 15th and July 19th (CDT time zone) qualify.

If you are attending Wikimania Mexico this year, you are also welcome to join a related sprint during the Hackathon in Workplace 1 - Don Américo, Thursday 16 July at 4:00 p.m (CDT) at the conference venue, so you can meet other fellow translators and get support if you need some.

Interface messages have the priority. You will need to create an account at translatewiki.net in order to work on them, if you don't have one. It is recommended to create the account ASAP, so that it can be manually confirmed in time.

You can also help translate documentation pages about VisualEditor on mediawiki.org. You can use your Wikipedia account there. You will find instructions, links and other details on the Translathon page.

Thanks for your attention, and happy translating! Elitre (WMF) 02:59, 11 July 2015 (UTC)

Invitation to Rejoin Wikipedia Asian Month as Organizers

Dear organizers who have previously participated in Wikipedia Asian Month,

Greetings from Wikipedia Asian Month User Group!

We haven't seen you at Wikipedia Asian Month for a long time! Since you have been an organizer of WAM for the past nine years, we would like to share some new changes for this year's event. This year, we have found ambassadors to support offline activities for communities and we are planning to establish a Steering Committee to expand the development of WAMUG and ensure its sustainability.

We would love to invite you and your partners to collaborate on being organizers again for your language's Wikipedia once again. The events will take place from November to December this year. You can choose to hold activities during any one-month period within these two months.

If you would like to organize an edit-a-thon or other offline events, please feel free to reach out to me. We can provide resources and support. We hope to see Wikipedia Asian Month thrive again with you and potentially engage in more projects in the future!

Thank you!
