Mass upload

Hello Millosh I read that you are involved into mass upload. I have hundreds, no thousends of place names from Congo-Zaire and I would like create small articles for ln. The articles would be something like

"A is a village (or if appropiate: town) in the B Territory, District of C in the D Province (E Province until 2010) of Dem Rep Congo. (Subtitel Geographys) A is located at (Coordinates). (Subtitel Sources): * [xyz] [Category:Place in B Territory]"

I know, population, altitude, name of mayor, etc. is missing, but not available.

I started to put all the data I have from different sources into an excel file, where I can also create stubs as showed below. Could this be a base for a mass upload at ln: (even other wikipedias, my excel file is both, ln: and fr:)? --Eruedin 15:20, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

I can help you with mass content adding, of course. However, you need community approval from the project on which you want to upload those articles. As you probably don't know to use bots, I may do that for you. That means that my bot should probably get bot flag on the target project. (If you know to program in Python and use Pywikipediabot, I may give to you my code.) --Millosh 16:09, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Hello Milosh

Please tell me more about this. I know about Python and used to use Pywikipediabot. At ln: we are at the moment only two contributors, but I do nothing without accord of the other who is admin. Of course, I would start with small numbers – just so much as I could remove it in a few minutes, if something dioes not work. You can also send an e-mail trough wikipedia. --Eruedin 22:17, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

Latin and Cyrillic alphabet for Rusyn Wikipedia

Dear Millosh, we would like to have real time switching between Latin and Cyrillic alphabet on Rusyn Wikipedia after its creation. Such switching already works on http://sr.wikipedia.org and we would like to do it same way for Rusyn pages. It would be helpful for people willing contribute in Rusyn Wikipedia in Latin. How we can implement this for Rusyn wiki? Thanks in anticipation Gazeb 06:05, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

Dear Millosh. Now would be right time to reconfogure Rusyn Wikipedia to real time switching between Latin and Cyrillic alphabet. Are you still willing to support us? The rules can be found on rue:Латиньскый_алфавіт. --Gazeb 05:24, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

Clarification of you concept of "payment"

Dear Millos,

In your statements for Board elections, you have said "WMF should find a way that Wikimedians can be payed in areas close to their Wikimedia work". I'm trying to translate this to Persian, and I'm not sure what you mean by "be payed" (do you mean money), and what you mean by being payed "in areas close to their Wikimedia work". An example can be explanatory.

Thanks, Huji 15:15, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

I mean "money" and I mean the situation which is not COI, but which is related to Wikimedian work. For example, if someone is spending a lot of time with GLAM issues and according to WMF goals, then WMF and chapters should find a way how to pay that person. There are, also, many other areas which should be explored. In other words, my position is that Wikimedians should be able to make money for living from their Wikimedian work or work closely related to their Wikimedian work. --Millosh 15:49, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

Well, thanks for your intervention. Gomà had told me there was a discussion about me/my situation and I had written a big text I asked him to paste it in the late morning (my wife was working all day long even if some may think she's a sockpuppet (well some days I wish she were...)) in order to have my say about this question since my blocking is way too dubious. But well, I will think about posting it later, since things need to be clarified. So, I won't bother you anymore, I will paste my answers and translations in a short while without bothering anyone; thanks for your action and I wish you all the best sincerely since I have only heard good things about you and know that you are one truly devoted to the cause! Take care, have a nice day and wonderful week! Claudi/Capsot 18:01, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Questions to Board candidates

Based on the statistics concerning the number of pages read in previous years' Q&As, I infer that few voters take them into account. Personally, I see it as a very interesting exercise despite the fact that we the candidates are also the main readers. I believe it is a unique type of debate among us that is especially interesting.

I have noticed that User Alecmconroy suggested a very interesting series of questions on strategic issues: User talk:Alecmconroy#More questions for Board Candidates (or others). I have given my opinion, I see you have made your comments too.

I wish you the best possible result in these elections and, if you agree, I suggest that we continue having this type of debate regardless of who is chosen.

Cheers and good luck.--Gomà 09:20, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

global lock Abigor

Hello,

Thnks for closing the request for global locks as not done, but it seems that some of the accounts where already locked by your fellow steward. Would you mind removing all the locks from the accounts listed there?

Now we have a request as not done but the accounts did get locked, seems kind of strange.

Best,

Huib talk ^Abigor 19:29, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

I would like to ask you to wait unlocking untill the checkusers have responded to the alledged Xxxxxx xxxxxx fucks Xxxxx Xxxxxx in his ass-account by Abigor. Information on nl:Overleg gebruiker:Abigor/blockmsg shows that the account and Abigor are linked and that the information came from a CU done on meta. I don't know why it takes so long to come up with a reaction on this point. I've asked two of them: 1, 2. I hope they'll respond soon. Silver Spoon 20:11, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

You mean this reaction maybe? [3] [4]. Its clear that the sock cant be linked to me, stop trying to bend it arround please. Huib talk ^Abigor 20:15, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

I'm not talking about that Abigor, I'm talking about a reaction to this from the check users who were still discussing this yesterday. The link you're showing is from Herby who said something way before that. @Millosh, my question still stands, also the questions to the CU's still stand. Silver Spoon 20:19, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Its about the same account, you are just looking and looking until you find something... You wanted a respondse by a checkuser and you get one, you don't like it and you move on to the next one and the next one.... Huib talk ^Abigor 20:22, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

I'm not looking untill I find something, I'm waiting for an answer like I said here. And there will be one, we only have to show some patience (see here). Silver Spoon 20:28, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

I will repeat in different words what I said on SRG page: My involvement here is not related to the particular cases per se, but to the fact that stewards under pressure are making actions which are not inside of the scope of stewards' tasks. I am at vacations and I am not willing to do CU, as it takes significant time; so, ask other stewards to do that. --Millosh 20:58, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

I'm not asking for a CU, it has allready been done. It's just not communicated to the community yet (the bold link I gave 1 reaction above). Silver Spoon 21:05, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing to your discussion with Barras. I've read the data at the private wiki. Anyway, no matter if it is positive or negative, global locks are not the tool for resolving situations like this one is. I am not introduced into the matter like Barras is, for example, but in any case, this is the regular issue related to the particular wikis; it's not the case of vandalism or spam, which should be dealt with global tools. --Millosh 21:33, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Translator, We need you!

Dear Millosh,

You have helped us in previous years with translations and for that we are most grateful. Now we turn towards the 2011/12 fundraiser. It may seem forever away, but work has already begun getting everything ready to go. This year we want to have landing pages covering as many countries in as many languages as possible.

Right now, we want to figure out who is interested in translating for the fundraiser. This year we're hoping to have more of a solidified "core" group of translators that we can count on to have work done by a few key dates, but we'd also welcome help from people who are willing to just help out when they can.

If you would be interested please take a look at this little sign-up survey and fill it out http://survey.wikimedia.org/index.php?sid=13638&newtest=Y&lang=en. With that we can start building a list of people and filling any gaps in the languages we serve.

Many Thanks

Your comments

"Proposer should educate him/herself in linguistic diversity. Useful resource in this case is English Wikipedia article Scots language"

Please look at it yourself. I quoted the piece. There is a major division within the field of linguistics as to if it can be considered an actual "language", with most scholars outside of Scotland providing a resounding "NO!" This book, a very popular dictionary of Scots, even refers to it as a dictionary for a "dialect" whereas most dictionaries of a language would clearly say language. This book goes into great detail about the dispute.

p. 139: "For many, in Scotland and elsewhere, Scots is obvious an English dialect. However distinctive it may be (or may have been) in sound, spelling, syntax, and vocabulary, it is not different enough structurally and lexically to be a language in its own right... and has none of the socio-legal trappings of a language: no official status, no significant presence in schools, only a minor role int he country's legal system, and no role whatever in its administration. Many Scots who hold the 'dialect' view would probably have no objection.... if Scots were a clear-cut language, but they tend to think that people should accept the facts of life."

The bolding is mine. I think you were mislead by a few noisy users who are heavily connected to the sco.wiki and who aren't interested in what is correct or proper. Ottava Rima (talk) 12:49, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

By the way, policy is clear that discussions must be open for longer than a week. This means your close is invalid. You should undo it yourself before someone else undoes it for you. Ottava Rima (talk) 16:29, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Millosh, your close is obviously correct. In a day, there were 14 opposes, 1 joke support, and only 1 real support besides the nominator for closing the project. That's a "snow close," obviously. Your close will stand. Ottava apparently doesn't understand how wikis work. He thinks it's about rules, hence his argument about "longer than a week." Sure. If there is any doubt about consensus. --Abd 17:33, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Good call, Millosh. Seb az86556 17:41, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Just to be clear: As Seb noted inside of his "vote", the request belongs to the category "Please, close French Wikipedia", which would be treated as trolling and user blocked if it is not about ignorance. According to the defined workflow between Language committee and Board, I have right to close such requests on sight. --Millosh 19:31, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Millosh, if you want to claim Scots is equivalent to French Wikipedia then that would be more trolling than the request to close the Scots Wikipedia. I have already provided sources showing that many linguistic scholars consider it a dialect, and we do not have dialects as different languages. You do not have the right to close such on sight. It makes it clear that -weeks- must progress. You only have a right to submit it to the committee but not close it. The committee would have to decide on such. I already quoted the policy and it is clear. Ottava Rima (talk) 02:33, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

And it is really ironic that you say the request is ignorance when you referred to the Scots language page saying that the whole thing is considered a dialect. Did you read it before linking to it?

"Since there are no universally accepted criteria for distinguishing languages from dialects, scholars and other interested parties often disagree about the linguistic, historical and social status of Scots.[5] Although a number of paradigms for distinguishing between languages and dialects do exist, these often render contradictory results. Focused broad Scots is at one end of a bipolar linguistic continuum, with Scottish Standard English at the other.[6] Consequently, Scots is often regarded as one of the ancient varieties of English, but with its own distinct dialects.[5] Alternatively, Scots is sometimes treated as a distinct Germanic language, in the way Norwegian is closely linked to, yet distinct from, Danish.[5] Those positions are also reflected in the 2010 Scottish Government study of "public attitudes towards the Scots language" in which 64% of respondents (around 1,000 individuals being a representative sample of Scotland's adult population) "don't really think of Scots as a language""

64% of Scots don't even consider Scots a language. Isn't that a tad odd? Ottava Rima (talk) 02:35, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

What do you think about working on Wikizine instead of wasting time on things which you are not able to change? --Millosh 02:40, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

Not able to change? My dear, you don't have the authority to make an out of process close like that, especially when your justification and accusations are proven false by your own example. You wrote before looking and you made a serious mistake. You are confronted with the proof you are wrong, especially when 64% of the Scots refuse to accept Scots as a language, and you don't even bat an eye. That is a major problem. And don't try to pull things on me - if you bothered, you would have remembered that I spent a long time working on the opening and closing projects, including the archivings of the discussions. Ottava Rima (talk) 02:47, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

On a wiki, the proof of authority is action that stands. Period.

Millosh was acting with the same authority -- or more, because of his LangCom membership -- as any user. Ottava, you are nit-picking, as to whether his explanation was completely sound. You seem to believe that if you can find a flaw in his explanation, then ... then what? It doesn't matter! He did what he did, and it's been sustained, which we know because nobody has reversed it, and when you revert warred to try to restore your post-close comment, and complained about "vandalism," where did that go?

I've been closing certain RfCs and discussions here, and my authority was? Those closes stand, none have been reversed.

I highly recommend that you stop harassing Millosh over his close. If you really believe that his close was wrong, and that this is important enough to justify wasting his time reading this kukk (Scots) on his Talk page, and to stake your account on, then it would be simpler and more efficient to just revert his close, once he didn't accept your arguments. I don't recommend it! --Abd 01:05, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

Abowt Scots, sum delytable discoveris lese me. --Abd 01:05, 25 August 2011 (UTC)
By the way, I'm largely Scots-Irish. I'd never looked at sco.wikipedia before. There is something very attractive about it to me. And setting aside all the kukk about language vs dialect, I see sco.wiki as fun, and as people standing up for and loving a culture that was repressed for centuries (as one way of looking at it). And the harm is? There is something liberating about the Report an Recommends o the Scots Spellin Comatee, after a lifetime of obligation to spell everything "correctly" (and I've been, professionally, an editor and proofreader.) And see [5]. Or a governmental page in English and Scots. Or a sermon in Scots published first in 1910. The Wikipedia article is clear: while it reports that "scholars and other interested parties often disagree about the linguistic, historical and social status of Scots," Wikipedia classifies it as a language, and the article reports the facts about Scots opinion in a more complete way than Ottava does above. That is, sure, 64% of respondents in a sample of a population in Scotland did not consider Scots a language, but the percentage was lower among those who speak Scots, reported as 55%. I'll say that I wad hae thocht sae ma self had I bin akst. But now that I've done some research -- how many of that population did any research? -- I see that there are strong reasons to consider Scots a "language," and certainly enough reason to consider that the view that it is not a language is not firmly established. Therefore whatever we can do with a consensus of the participants is reasonably legitimate. In the end, though, I'd suggest to Ottava that he consider that "Aa wark an na play makes Duff a doof laddie: an up-ticht, must be richt, late intae the nicht, loune." We (I'm enrolled now!) want our Scots 'pedia, so who in the world are you, Ottava, to demand its dissolution, because you have nailed yourself to the cross of your own rightness and are unable to understand that you are not in charge? --Abd 01:05, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

Wikimedia Venezuela

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.

I migrated your user page to the new #babel extension, but I couldn't match ry to a language — neither the {{user language}} system you were using, the extension, nor ISO 639 recognize it as a valid language code. Which language was this referring to? —Pathoschild 18:25:09, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

At some point of time I thought that it's an ISO 639-1 code for Rusyn language. And, thanks for migrating my Babel template! --Millosh 07:51, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

You're welcome. The code for Rusyn is rue; I've added it to your language boxes. :) —Pathoschild 12:48:27, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Millbot

At some point of time I should turn it on again. If it's a problem to keep the bot flag, then remove it. If not, please leave it. --Millosh 07:51, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

It's up to you, Millosh. That's sure it does not really make sense to remove the bot flag if you plan to turn it on in a month. But if you don't know when you will have the time for doing this, and if it may take months, that should probably be better to remove the status and to ask 'crats to give it back when it will start to edit again. A simple message on my talk page is sufficient. Have a nice evening. -- Quentinv57 ^(talk) 16:08, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello. I'd like to ask when you are finished checking the lezgin wikipedia on the reliability of the language. And how to speed up the process, already four years of it in the incubator.Lezgistxa 14:58, 10 December 2011 (UTC)
