Průzkum přání komunity 2022
editovatZačal Průzkum přání komunity 2022!
V tomto průzkumu se mohou komunity editorů dohodnout, na čem bude tým Community Tech pracovat během příštího roku. Neváhejte přidat svůj nápad nejpozději do 23. ledna, případně připomínkovat a vylepšit návrhy ostatních editorů.
Komunity budou o návrzích hlasovat od 28. ledna do 11. února.
Tým Community Tech se soustředí na nástroje pro zkušené editory projektů Wikimedia. Svůj návrh můžete sepsat v libovolném jazyce, my jej přeložíme. Děkujeme a těšíme se na vaše návrhy! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 10. 1. 2022, 20:09 (UTC)
Výzva k podávání připomínek k volbám do správní rady je nyní otevřena
editovatVýzva ke zpětné vazbě: Volby do správní rady jsou nyní otevřeny a budou ukončeny 7. února 2022.
Tým pro strategii a řízení hnutí se v této výzvě ke zpětné vazbě snaží o jiný přístup. Tento přístup zahrnuje zpětnou vazbu od komunity z roku 2021. Místo toho, aby výzva začínala návrhy, je formulována na základě klíčových otázek, formulovaných Správní radou. Ty vzešly ze zpětné vazby k volbám do Správní rady v roce 2021. Záměrem je podnítit o těchto klíčových otázkách společnou konverzaci a na jejich základě společnou tvorbu návrhů.
Ať se daří,
Tým Strategie a řízení hnutí

Invitation to join the first Wikisource Triage meeting on 21st March 2022
editovatHello everyone,
Sam Wilson and I are excited to share that we will be hosting regular Wikisource Triage meetings, starting from 21st March 2022.
These meetings aim to foster the growth of a technical community of Wikisource developers and contributors. The meetings will be primarily focused on identifying, prioritizing and estimating tasks on the All-and-every-Wikisource and ProofreadPage workboards (among others) on Phabricator and eventually reduce the backlog of technical tasks and bugs related to Wikisource by making incremental improvements to Wikisource infrastructure and coordinating these changes with the Wikisource communities.
While these meetings are technology focused, non-technical Wikisource contributors are also invited to join and share any technical challenges that they are facing and we will help them to create phabricator tickets. Newbie developers are also more than welcome!
The first meeting has been scheduled for 21st March 2022 at 10:30 AM UTC / 4:00 PM IST (Check your local time). If you are interested in joining the meeting, kindly leave a message on sgill@wikimedia.org and we will add you to the calendar invite.
Meanwhile, feel free to check out the page on Meta-wiki and suggest topics for the agenda.

Interwiki na jiné edice
editovatV souvislosti s výše položenou diskusí jsem se pokusil z polských Wikizdrojů převzít řešení, kdy se v mezijazykových odkazech zobrazují prostřednictvím Wikidat všechny jiné edice v jiných jazycích, pokud jsou uvedeny na Wikidatech. Uvedené řešení má pár nectností (funguje jen na málo wikizdrojích, určitě na pl a zřejmě i na sv a es; vyžaduje uvedení ve Wikidatech, převzal jsem aniž bych tomu úplně rozuměl atp.), ale zdá se, že funguje. Prozatím je možné vyzkoušet pomocí testovacího udělátka Mezijazykové odkazy na edice.
Stránky, kterých se to týká, najdete v této monitorovací kategorii. Na některých stránkách se to bude tlouci s ručně zadaným (a neudržovaným) interwiki. NA vědomí obzvlášť @Next ghost, Shlomo: JAn Dudík (diskuse) 13. 4. 2022, 08:03 (UTC)

Coming soon: Improvements for templates
editovatAhoj, na vaši wiki brzy dorazí další změny týkající se šablon:
Dialog šablon ve vizuálním editoru a editor wikitextu 2017 (beta) se dočkají zásadních vylepšení: Mělo by to pomoci uživatelům lépe pochopit, co šablona očekává, jak se v šabloně vyznat a jak přidávat parametry.
Ve zvýrazňování syntaxe (rozšíření CodeMirror) můžete pomocí uživatelského nastavení aktivovat barevné schéma vhodné pro barvoslepé.
Nasazení je plánováno na 10. května. Jde o poslední sadu vylepšení z oblasti „Šablony“ v rámci Technických přání WMDE.

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election 2022 - Call for Election Volunteers
editovatTým pro strategii a správu hnutí hledá členy komunity jako dobrovolníky pro nadcházející volby do správní rady.
Myšlenka volebního dobrovolnického programu vznikla během voleb do správní rady Wikimedia v roce 2021. Tento program se ukázal jako úspěšný. S pomocí volebních dobrovolníků se nám podařilo zvýšit oslovení a účast ve volbách o 1753 voličů oproti roku 2017. Celková volební účast byla 10,13 %, což je o 1,1 procentního bodu více, a ve volbách bylo zastoupeno 214 wiki.
Ve volbách v roce 2021 však hlasovalo celkem 74 wiki, které se jich v roce 2017 nezúčastnily. Pomůžete tuto účast změnit?
Volební dobrovolníci budou pomáhat v následujících oblastech:
- překládat krátké zprávy a oznamovat probíhající volební proces v komunitních kanálech
- volitelně: Sledování komunitních kanálů pro připomínky a dotazy komunity
Dobrovolníci by měli:
- Zachovávat zásady přátelského prostoru během rozhovorů a akcí.
- Neutrálním způsobem prezentovat komunitě pokyny a informace o hlasování.
Chcete se stát volebním dobrovolníkem a zajistit, aby vaše komunita byla zastoupena při hlasování? Zaregistrujte se zde a dostávejte aktuální informace. Pro dotazy týkající se překladu můžete využít diskusní stránku.

Report on Voter Feedback from Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) Enforcement Guidelines Ratification
editovatHello all,
The Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) project team has completed the analysis of the feedback accompanying the ratification vote on the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines.
Following the completion of the UCoC Enforcement Guidelines Draft in 2022, the guidelines were voted on by the Wikimedian community. Voters cast votes from 137 communities, with the top 9 communities being: English, German, French, Russian, Polish, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Italian Wikipedias, and Meta-wiki.
Those voting had the opportunity to provide comments on the contents of the Draft document. 658 participants left comments. 77% of the comments are written in English. Voters wrote comments in 24 languages with the largest numbers in English (508), German (34), Japanese (28), French (25), and Russian (12).
A report will be sent to the Revision Drafting Committee who will refine the enforcement guidelines based on the community feedback received from the recently concluded vote. A public version of the report is published on Meta-wiki here. The report is available in translated versions on Meta-wiki. Prosíme, pomozte s překladem do svého jazyka
Again, we thank all who participated in the vote and discussions. We invite everyone to contribute during the next community discussions. More information about the Universal Code of Conduct and Enforcement Guidelines can be found on Meta-wiki.

Novinky – vylepšení pro desktop
editovatDobrý den. Rád bych vám předal nové informace o projektu vylepšeních pro desktop, na kterém nadace Wikimedia pracuje posledních několik let. Naše práce je téměř u konce! 🎉
Rádi bychom, aby se tyto vylepšení nasadila jako výchozí rozhraní pro čtenáře i editory na všech projektech. V nejbližších týdnech zahájíme na toto téma diskusi na více projektech, včetně toho vašeho. 🗓️ Rádi si přečteme vaši návrhy!
Cílem projektu je zajistit, aby rozhraní bylo pro čtenáře srozumitelnější, ale aby bylo i tak užitečné pro pokročilé uživatele. Projekt se skládá z několika vylepšení, které mimo jiné usnadňují čtení článku, navigaci uvnitř článku, vyhledávání dalších článků, přepínání mezi jednotlivými verzemi, používání záložek a uživatelského menu. Vylepšení jsou již nasazena jako výchozí na více než 30 projektech, včetně francouzské, portugalské a perské Wikipedie.
Změny se týkají pouze vzhledu Vector. Pokud používáte Monobook nebo Timeless, změny se vás netýkají.
- Nejnovější funkce
- Obsah článku – k naší verzi se čtenář snáze dostane a snáze se může stránkou navigovat bez toho, aby musel scrollovat. Momentálně nový obsah testujeme na našich pilotních projektech. Funkce je také dostupná pro uživatele, kteří si zapnuli vzhled Vector 2022.
- Nástroje stránky – nyní jsou v menu dva typy odkazů Jsou zde akce a nástroje týkající se konkrétních stránek (například Související změny) a odkazy na stránky týkající se celé wiki (například Poslední změny). Rozdělíme tyto dva typy odkazů do dvou intuitivních menu.
- Jak zapnout vylepšení?
- Vylepšení si můžete zapnout ručně ve svém nastavení na kartě Vzhled tím, že zvolíte „Vektor (2022)“. Je také možné funkce zapnout na všech projektech pomocí globálního nastavení.
- Na projektch, kde jsou změny nasazeny ve výchozím nastavení, se přihlášení uživatelé mohou vždy přepnout do původního Vectoru. Slouží pro to jednoduše použitelný odkaz v levém menu nového Vectoru.
- Zjistěte více a připojte se k našim událostem
Pokud byste chtěli naši práci blíže sledovat, můžete se přihlásit k odběru newsletteru. Můžete si také přečíst projektové stránky, přečíst si naše často kladené otázky nebo nás kontaktovat na diskusní stránce. Je také možné sejít se s námi na online meetingu.

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election 2022 - Propose statements for the 2022 Election Compass
editovat
Hi all,
Community members in the 2022 Board of Trustees election are invited to propose statements to use in the Election Compass.
An Election Compass is a tool to help voters select the candidates that best align with their beliefs and views. The community members will propose statements for the candidates to answer using a Lickert scale (agree/neutral/disagree). The candidates’ answers to the statements will be loaded into the Election Compass tool. Voters will use the tool by entering in their answer to the statements (agree/disagree/neutral). The results will show the candidates that best align with the voter’s beliefs and views.
- Here is the timeline for the Election Compass:
July 8 - 20: Community members propose statements for the Election Compass
July 21 - 22: Elections Committee reviews statements for clarity and removes off-topic statements
July 23 - August 1: Volunteers vote on the statements
August 2 - 4: Elections Committee selects the top 15 statements
August 5 - 12: candidates align themselves with the statements
August 15: The Election Compass opens for voters to use to help guide their voting decision
The Elections Committee will select the top 15 statements at the beginning of August. The Elections Committee will oversee the process, supported by the Movement Strategy and Governance team. MSG will check that the questions are clear, there are no duplicates, no typos, and so on.
Best,
Movement Strategy and Governance

Revised Enforcement Draft Guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct
editovatHello everyone,
The Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines Revisions committee is requesting comments regarding the Revised Enforcement Draft Guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC). This review period will be open from 8 September 2022 until 8 October 2022.
The Committee collaborated to revise these draft guidelines based on input gathered from the community discussion period from May through July, as well as the community vote that concluded in March 2022. The revisions are focused on the following four areas:
- To identify the type, purpose, and applicability of the UCoC training;
- To simplify the language for more accessible translation and comprehension by non-experts;
- To explore the concept of affirmation, including its pros and cons;
- To review the balancing of the privacy of the accuser and the accused
The Committee requests comments and suggestions about these revisions by 8 October 2022. From there, the Revisions Committee anticipates further revising the guidelines based on community input.
Find the Revised Guidelines on Meta, and a comparison page in some languages.
Everyone may share comments in a number of places. Facilitators welcome comments in any language on the Revised Enforcement Guidelines talk page. Comments can also be shared on talk pages of translations, at local discussions, or during conversation hours. There are a series of conversation hours planned about the Revised Enforcement Guidelines; please see Meta for the times and details.
The facilitation team supporting this review period hopes to reach a large number of communities. If you do not see a conversation happening in your community, please organize a discussion. Facilitators can assist you in setting up the conversations. Discussions will be summarized and presented to the drafting committee every two weeks. The summaries will be published here.

Invitation to attend “Ask Me Anything about Movement Charter” Sessions
editovatHello all,
During the 2022 Wikimedia Summit, the Movement Charter Drafting Committee (MCDC) presented the first outline of the Movement Charter, giving a glimpse on the direction of its future work, and the Charter itself. The MCDC then integrated the initial feedback collected during the Summit. Before proceeding with writing the Charter for the whole Movement, the MCDC wants to interact with community members and gather feedback on the drafts of the three sections: Preamble, Values & Principles, and Roles & Responsibilities (intentions statement). The Movement Charter drafts will be available on the Meta page here on November 14, 2022. Community wide consultation period on MC will take place from November 20 to December 18, 2022. Learn more about it here.
With the goal of ensuring that people are well informed to fully participate in the conversations and are empowered to contribute their perspective on the Movement Charter, three “Ask Me Anything about Movement Charter" sessions have been scheduled in different time zones. Everyone in the Wikimedia Movement is invited to attend these conversations. The aim is to learn about Movement Charter - its goal, purpose, why it matters, and how it impacts your community. MCDC members will attend these sessions to answer your questions and hear community feedback.
The “Ask Me Anything” sessions accommodate communities from different time zones. Only the presentation of the session is recorded and shared afterwards, no recording of conversations. Below is the list of planned events:
- Asia/Pacific: November 4, 2022 at 09:00 UTC (your local time). Interpretation is available in Chinese and Japanese.
- Europe/MENA/Sub Saharan Africa: November 12, 2022 at 15:00 UTC (your local time). Interpretation is available in Arabic, French and Russian.
- North and South America/ Western Europe: November 12, 2022 at 15:00 UTC (your local time). Interpretation is available in Spanish and Portuguese.
On the Meta page you will find more details; Zoom links will be shared 48 hours ahead of the call.
Call for Movement Charter Ambassadors
Individuals or groups from all communities who wish to help include and start conversations in their communities on the Movement Charter are encouraged to become Movement Charter Ambassadors (MC Ambassadors). MC Ambassadors will carry out their own activities and get financial support for enabling conversations in their own languages. Regional facilitators from the Movement Strategy and Governance team are available to support applicants with MC Ambassadors grantmaking. If you are interested please sign up here. Should you have specific questions, please reach out to the MSG team via email: strategy2030@wikimedia.org or on the MS forum.
We thank you for your time and participation.

Movement Charter: End of the community consultation round 1
editovatHi everyone,
On behalf of the Movement Charter Drafting Committee (MCDC), we would like to thank everyone who has participated in our first community wide consultation period on the Movement Charter.
People from across the Movement shared their feedback and thoughts on the content of the Movement Charter. If you have not had the chance to share your opinion yet, you are welcome to do so still by giving the drafts a read and filling out the anonymous survey, which is accessible in 12+ languages. The survey will close on January 2, 2023. You are invited to continue to share your thoughts with the MCDC via email too: movementcharter@wikimedia.org.
What’s next?
The Movement Strategy and Governance team will publish the final report with the summary of the feedback received in January 2023. It will be shared with the MCDC and the communities via different distribution channels.
After receiving the final report, the MCDC will review the suggestions and communicate the changes by providing an explanation on how and why suggestions were or were not adopted in the next versions of the drafts. There will be additional ways to engage with the Movement Charter content in 2023, including early feedback on a proposed ratification process and new drafts of different chapters in the second quarter of 2023.
We invite you to sign-up to the MCDC monthly newsletter, it will be delivered to the Talk page of your choice. Monthly updates are available on Meta to remain updated on the progress of the MCDC.
Interested people can still sign-up to become a Movement Charter Ambassador (MC Ambassador) to support their community. The MC Ambassadors Program grant program will restart accepting applications from both individuals and groups ahead of the next round of consultations in the second quarter of 2023.
We thank you for your participation, time and effort in helping to build the Charter for our Movement!
