User talk:Omotecho/Archive 3

Hello, could you explain why you are creating translation pages duplicating the English version, such as the one given in the title? Submitting such non-translations is generally unhelpful, since they do not automatically remain up to date and falsify the translation progress statistics (thus also making them harder to find for translators). Asking here though since you are an experienced user. ~~~~

Would you kindly clarify your motive behind this thread? Do we care more about statistics, or being vessels of mutual understanding between local language communities and WMF?
As for .../26/ja, I remember it as a very rare case for my history of translation that I just put through en original.
I am still afraid by putting that sentence into ja, I will trap anybody claiming that it IS written on Meta in ja: it does not support the poster to self defense at all, or I am so afraid I am inviting vandals' hands to attack such poster.
FYI, For any bug-like<sup>※</sup> marks, it is to pick up for the WMF jargon glossary on jawiki esp for UCoC and it's EG: how do you ratify an Enforcement Guideline if you don't understand what it will be enforcing, or the Universal Code of Conduct ratified by the WMF, which ja Lang communities feel being distanced? Is any vote weigh equal among language communities?
Reason: in regards to the sentence you pointed out as the section title: On jawiki at least, we have not discussed race and ban of inequality based on race as an issue since I joined, or it is "a foreign idea" that mere translation does not help readers at all locally. It is a "we need to talk" topic, and I am afraid since ja language communities does not join the Movement as a User Group or -to-be, facilitators reaching out has very tough time against those who hates "intervened by WMF".
My dilemma: Are we translators mere tools to convey what WMF decides, and do we push it on dishes to communities and have them swallow it? Working on translating UCoC documentation esp for its Enforcement Guidelines, trying to meet timetable for ratification vote, I feel it's no worth trying anymore to translate documents not yet in ja, and how can I resist the temptation and say, let's have doors closed in my peers' faces.

Hi, @Xeno (WMF), kon'nichiwa, and great news on our holiday for rememberance in Japan[1]; yes, I'd love to work on translation, and please be assured that those links are hot among ja_wikipedians, and I am sure those editors at ja Sister Project also watchlisted them. May I reconfirm that it is a long distance endeavor that we will participate for weeks/months to come?
Here, we are enjoying a calm holiday Monday to remember those dear ones who have expired, those who have been on the other side of the heavenly river.
May our ratification vote be a path to the source of "aqua vitae" aka "eau-de-vie", water of life for every Wikimedian (: PS., not necessarily those strong sake. (; Cheers, -- Omotecho (talk) 09:04, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

Smaller translation originals are ideal (list of pages)

Exhaustive list is needed: Would there be any textbook-type criteria for how long a single translation original/ segmentation be acceptable? Less than three dagger list item be ideal, or 40 words per a unit?

Translation request

Could you please translate VisualEditor/Newsletter/2022/August into Japanese for me? It is seven short sentences. Thank you for considering my request. Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 01:31, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

@Whatamidoing (WMF), hey, it's always appreciated that you turn your releases/newspits into local languages, then add to Announcements. That is not what users will notice everytime, but a very wise move so that you weiver the allergic reaction from the community, which will shut their eyes/ears to anything they'd better acknowledge from the early stage. (= (and esp those who go winnie months later...)
BTW, I know you are extra busy taking care of so much tasks and topics, then, would you kindly consider applying a small switch to inter-wiki links please? Or maybe a golden prefix doing the trick?
I find [wiki]:Special:MyLanguage/ (was it Special:MyLanguage/[wiki]:) a white magic, I mean, ppl will jump to pages offered in their language at once (if there be one), and don't need extra click: when they see the linked page in en, (suppose they are not that mw fluent), they don't care to read what tech and teams have achieved.
  • It's not written in jamw helppage that we have a language box on pages where you pick your language at the top selector;
  • on wikis such as wikipediia, language switch is on the sidebar,
  • or thanks to Vector2022, along the page title but as an icon.
Imagine you are offered a link, click, a page seemingly discussing delicious 寿司 in ja opens, darn, do I need to feed it to Google translate?? Wait, the language box has English, click, oh, there you have Sushi page in my language. Why an extra click (?m?) Anyway, read->share on FB or my blog. d=(^o^)=b
That scenario could make you hungry and angry, while, well, I am a picky eater coming to wikis, they are a bunch of buffet tables you wade along, pick your choice on your plate ((: Cheers, Omotecho (talk) 03:01, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

[Interview Request] Board of Trustees Onboarding Project

Hello Omotecho,

I’m Cassie Casares, a program support associate for the Wikimedia Foundation’s Community Development. I work with Maggie Dennis, the Vice President of Community Resilience & Sustainability. Our department is responsible for many critical operations in the movement, and that includes supporting the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation in onboarding into their roles.

We are excited to welcome Victoria Doronina, Lorenzo Losa and Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight to the Board. As we work to help our new trustees better understand the different departments and functions of the Wikimedia Foundation, we also believe it is important to introduce them to different corners and insights of the movement with which they may not have much personal experience. We recognize that these outstanding individuals have extensive experience in the movement but believe it is integral that trustees have a sense of “us” that is global and diverse like our communities. We also hope to use the materials we assemble to help onboard future Board members, including those who join from outside of our movement.

To that end, we are developing a podcast that will be compiled of interviews with different volunteers from across the movement, and we would like to invite you to participate. Christel Steigenberger recommended you as a volunteer with community experience that the Board of Trustees will find incredibly valuable.

The interviews will be conducted by Maggie or by my manager, Simona Ramkisson. We would aim to schedule a 60 minute meeting with you that is convenient to your timezone. These interviews will be recorded, with excerpts drawn from multiple interviews to help create a full picture of a range of experiences. In order that people may feel confident to speak frankly, they will be considered a confidential resource, and will not be shared publicly. They will only be provided to the Board of Trustees (now or future) or to onboarding senior Foundation staff, who would also benefit.

We are happy to answer any questions and would also be delighted to set up a time to talk, if you are able to help us with this request.

Best,

Cassie Casares ccasares@wikimedia.org

Translation request (OC/CRC appointments)

Hi Omotecho! Hope all is well. As you may have heard, I have a new role and one of my responsibilities is helping with staff support for the Ombuds commission and Case Review Committee (CRC). I noticed you had helped translate a CRC call for applications in the past, and I was wondering if you had time to translate the latest call: Wikimedia Foundation Legal department/Announcement/2023 OC and CRC appointments process. If not, I understand.

I would also appreciate if you could share it to anyone who might be interested to join either of these groups. Of course your expertise and experience would be valued as well, if it's something you're interested in. All the best, Xeno (WMF) (talk) 16:23, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Xeno, hope you are doing fine, and I have returned to this page at last, forgive me for belated reply. Worked on the call page, hope s/body soon contact you before due date.

Some of the upcoming changes

The Editing team is nearly finished with this first phase of the Talk pages project. Nearly all new features are available now in the Beta Feature for Discussion tools.

It will show information about how active a discussion is, such as the date of the most recent comment. There will soon be a new "Add topic" button. You will be able to turn them off at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion. Please tell them what you think.

 
Daily edit completion rate by test group: DiscussionTools (test group) and MobileFrontend overlay (control group)

New Project: Edit Check

The Editing team is beginning a project to help new editors of Wikipedia. It will help people identify some problems before they click "Publish changes". The first tool will encourage people to add references when they add new content. Please watch that page for more information. You can join a conference call on 3 March 2023 to learn more.

My worry is that the nl is needed for 2nd March meeting the team is calling for; the subject, or Talk Page Project has been disfavored by senior editors on VillagePump/ja, and offering them the nl in current form is like throwing a match stick into petrol tank...

@Trizek (WMF), seriously, pls revert to bot edit reason cross wiki translation vandal. Tech News won't rot as far as we have eagle eyes of Marine-Blue. Cheers, Omotecho (talk) 07:05, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
It seems that the Tech/Server switch message has been fixed for ja. I let you check it one last time, if possible for you (I will distribute it in a few hours). Thanks, Trizek (WMF) (talk) 13:56, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
@Trizek (WMF):, Last minute fix done, and thank you so much for the ping. And good luck for 3/3 conversation, which is a girls’ festival on ja traditional calendar. Cheers, Omotecho (talk) 16:56, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
I still see Japanese completed at 83%. :) Trizek (WMF) (talk) 17:28, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
