Hoogtepunten Wikimedia Foundation
Bewerken op mobiel
Het 'mobile web team' heeft afgelopen maand nieuwe navigatiefuncties vrijgegeven aan alle bijdragers op alle Wikimedia mobiele sites, inclusief de bestaande upload en watchlist ster functies en de bewerkknop. Dit betekend dat bewerken (in de vorm van een sectie-niveau markup bewerking) nu ook mogelijk is op alle mobiele Wikimedia sites voor ingelogde gebruikers. De gebruikers van ons "beta" kanaal zullen binnenkort een opnieuw designde mobiele notificaties zien, evenals gidsen voor bijdragers en uploaders die nieuw zijn. (More about the beta channel and how you can opt in.)
Wikimedia Zero komt naar India
The first Wikipedia Zero launch in India gives 60 million mobile phone subscribers free-of-charge access to Wikipedia on their mobile phones. The promotional campaign around this launch, led by our partner Aircel, received broad coverage in print and was accompanied by Twitter and blogging events. Aircel customers now have free access to Wikipedia in English, as well as to the 19 Indic language Wikipedias.
Betalancering van Visuele Tekstverwerker
In July we enabled the new editing interface on several Wikipedias as the default editor, first for logged-in editors and then for anonymous users as well. This resulted in a great deal of feedback, and the team responded with several hundred improvements to fix urgent issues. In addition, the team deployed user interface improvements, most notably to the references insertion dialog. Currently, users are making approximately 800 edits per hour using the VisualEditor on Wikimedia sites.
There are continuing discussions with different language communities about the positioning of the VisualEditor beta in the user interface and appropriate notices indicating its beta status. The Wikimedia Foundation is using the beta period to collect and analyze bug reports, feature enhancements, and data, to observe actual user behavior, and to improve the editing experience continuously. Our eventual objective is for VisualEditor to be the default editor for all Wikipedia users, capable of letting them edit the majority of content without needing to use the wikitext editor.
Please help translate the user interface of VisualEditor.

Buenos Aires edit-a-thon in former military prison
On July 20, a "Memorial Edit-a-thon" was held in Buenos Aires, at ESMA, a former "black site" (illegal military prison) during the Argentine military dictatorship from 1976 to 1983, and today a human-rights museum. Besides experienced and new Wikipedia editors, it was also attended by survivors of the black site. The Argentine Wikimedia chapter interviewed one of the attendees, a photographer who dedicated most of her career to political activism and owns an archive of 45,000 photographs that she intends to upload to Wikimedia Commons after digitization.
