Hello Edoderoo, and welcome to the Wikimedia Meta-Wiki! This website is for coordinating and discussing all Wikimedia projects. You may find it useful to read our policy page. If you are interested in doing translations, visit Meta:Babylon. You can also leave a note on Meta:Babel or Wikimedia Forum (please read the instructions at the top of the page before posting there). If you would like, feel free to ask me questions on my talk page. Happy editing! Cirt (talk) 19:20, 12 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Image Issue

edit

There was an attempt to deceive you on #wikimedia-commons, barra was trying to use some false information to try to stop you from re-uploading my image. Don't you believe that bull. 13:12, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

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 (gvarnum wikimedia.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

Hello Edoderoo, I noticed your high score in the Ukraine challenge and was quite impressed. I've been working around 6 hours a day and only have about 300 points. What tools are you using to translate language and code for content, infoboxes, images, etc. and complete articles so quickly? What is your general work process? Thank you. Shari Garland (talk) 18:49, 6 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

For the embassies I used a template text, that I could fill in with the information from Wikidata and the website of the embassy (most had a section with history). That made like 15 minutes per embassy, eventually. For the people I didn't use any tool, I mostly write about women (for the gender gap projects), and start with all sources on WikiData, and create a short item that has many sources after all. A new item from the wishlist with a few sources can easily be 15-20 points, and it will take me about an hour to write that. It might be that your articles are of higher quality then mine, and/or that in your language there is less left from the wishlist. In that case you will indeed miss a lot of points, as new articles give a lot of bonus points. But I'm glad to see that after my start, a lot of people joined the contest, and made also impressive lists, so Wikimedia is the big winner after all, I hope.

Hi, Edoderoo!

 

Thank you very much for participating in Ukraine's Cultural Diplomacy Month! My apologies for not sending this message sooner – but be assured, your contributions are very valuable!
The organisers welcome you participation. We hope you had fun! Some users faced the notability issues of the suggested articles; we recognise that the list of suggested articles wasn't flawless.
The project is not ended until all worthy participants receive their souvenirs! There will be another message from the organising team soon about this.
Stay safe, we appreciate you being a Wikipedian that you are   -- ViraMotorko (WMUA) (talk) 09:37, 5 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
