WMIT newsletter

FYI, you've been mentioned and thanked in the WMIT newsletter of 2015-01-15. The newsletter is distributed to a few thousands supporters. --Nemo 21:51, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

\o/ Very nice to see this and the effort of the italian community and you! Thanks for your work in this direction :) Btw: Google translator is very bad in translating italian to german/english :P --Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 22:01, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

Invitation

Thank you for using VisualEditor and sharing your ideas with the developers. My apologies if you're getting this message more than once, and/or not in your favorite language.

Hello, Florianschmidtwelzow,

I am contacting you because you have left feedback about VisualEditor at pages like mw:VisualEditor/Feedback in the past. The Editing team is now asking for your help with VisualEditor. Please tell them what they need to change to make VisualEditor work well for you. The team has a list of top-priority problems, but they also want to hear about small problems. These problems may make editing less fun, take too much of your time, or be as annoying as a paper cut. The Editing team wants to hear about and try to fix these small things, too. 

You can share your thoughts by clicking this link. You may respond to this quick, simple, anonymous survey in your own language. If you take the survey, then you agree your responses may be used in accordance with these terms. This survey is powered by Qualtrics and their use of your information is governed by their privacy policy.

More information (including a translatable list of the questions) is posted on wiki at mw:VisualEditor/Survey 2015. If you have questions, or prefer to respond on-wiki, then please leave a message on the survey's talk page.

Please sign new Wikimedia confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information by 31 December

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 (gvarnumwikimedia.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

Tech News addition

Thank you. I have no idea how that was left out of the last newsletter and am now terribly embarrassed. /Johan (WMF) (talk) 17:34, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

I think that's the "new year stress" :P For me: no problem, I think that shouldn't happen, but we all are humans, so we make mistakes. And for your defense: If I would take one minute to take a look at the tech news page before it appears on my talk page, I would have the chance to fix this before it is delivered :/ Nonetheless: Have a great week! Best, --Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 17:39, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Dallas data centre switchover postponed to April 19–21

Hi, thanks for you edit to Tech News. Mark Bergsma recently announced they had encountered some unexpected problems and didn't want to risk anything, so they postponed the switchover to April. /Johan (WMF) (talk) 18:06, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi Johan :) Thanks for the info, I was wondering, why the dates aren't as I would expect on wikitech, but there was no info about the deployment of the wmf.18 MediaWiki version, so I assumed, that it's still planned :) Sorry, for the work I created you :] --Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 18:08, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

And now I see a different date in April mentioned in another place ... OK, everything is a bit confused, but we're talking April anyway. Wikitech seems down at the moment so I can't link to the diff, but Greg updated the deployment schedule and said wmf.18 is yet again planned for next week. And no worries, I rather make an edit like that undone ten times than I miss information of that importance once! Please do exactly the same thing next time, I'm still grateful. /Johan (WMF) (talk) 18:14, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

Ok, I haven't seen this, yet (yes, the host of wikitech is down for a kernel update, should be up again later) :) Thanks for the information, nevertheless :) Maybe I remember checking back before the schedule in april :P Have a great day! --Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 18:16, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

Tech News 35/36 – my apologies

Hi, thanks for your addition to Tech News. My apologies: Tech/News/2016/35 went out to the translators a couple of days ago, but Tech/News/Next wasn't properly updated. I've moved the item to Tech/News/2016/36. /Johan (WMF) (talk) 00:02, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

Thanks Johan, but to be honest, even if Tech/News/Next would've been updated, I think I would've inserted the info in the false one, as I thought I can get it to the next Tech news (which seems to be not the case). The reason might be, that I'm not that familar with the Tech news writing process at all :( Sorry that I always create work for you when I edit Tech news :/ Best --Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 22:19, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

Copying and moving an item to another issue is hardly work worth mentioning. It's appreciated, I just wanted to let you know what happened to it.

Tech/News/For contributors#When is the work done? has some deadlines, if it helps. (: /Johan (WMF) (talk) 22:50, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

OTRS

I see that you transferred ticket:2016092410001051 to be but I'm not sure why. What am I missing?--Sphilbrick (talk) 13:51, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

DroidWiki link

As of the time I am writing this, the droidwiki link redirects to this weird website Apenguinlover (talk) 19:19, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the info, you're right, the project is discontinued and the domain seems to be taken now. I removed the links. Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 22:46, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
