Hi! The Wikimedia Foundation would like your input on how we can reimagine Wikimedia Foundation grants to better support people and ideas in your Wikimedia project.

After reading the Reimagining WMF grants idea, we ask you to complete this survey to help us improve the idea and learn more about your experience. When you complete the survey, you can enter to win one of five Wikimedia globe sweatshirts!

In addition to taking the the survey, you are welcome to participate in these ways:

What future IdeaLab campaigns would you like to see?

edit
 

Hi there,

I’m Jethro, and I’m seeking your help in deciding topics for new IdeaLab campaigns that could be run starting next year. These campaigns aim to bring in proposals and solutions from communities that address a need or problem in Wikimedia projects. I'm interested in hearing your preferences and ideas for campaign topics!

Here’s how to participate:

Take care,

I JethroBT (WMF), Community Resources, Wikimedia Foundation. 03:34, 5 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Future IdeaLab Campaigns results

edit
 

Last December, I invited you to help determine future ideaLab campaigns by submitting and voting on different possible topics. I'm happy to announce the results of your participation, and encourage you to review them and our next steps for implementing those campaigns this year. Thank you to everyone who volunteered time to participate and submit ideas.

With great thanks,

I JethroBT (WMF), Community Resources, Wikimedia Foundation. 23:56, 26 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Inspire Campaign on content curation & review

edit
 

I've recently launched an Inspire Campaign to encourage new ideas focusing on content review and curation in Wikimedia projects. Wikimedia volunteers collaboratively manage vast repositories of knowledge, and we’re looking for your ideas about how to manage that knowledge to make it more meaningful and accessible. We invite you to participate and submit ideas, so please get involved today! The campaign runs until March 28th.

All proposals are welcome - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Constructive feedback on ideas is welcome - your skills and experience can help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign to improve review and curation tasks so that we can make our content more meaningful and accessible! I JethroBT (WMF) 05:38, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Open Call for Individual Engagement Grants

edit
 

Greetings! The Individual Engagement Grants (IEG) program is accepting proposals until April 12th to fund new tools, research, outreach efforts, and other experiments that enhance the work of Wikimedia volunteers. Whether you need a small or large amount of funds (up to $30,000 USD), IEGs can support you and your team’s project development time in addition to project expenses such as materials, travel, and rental space.

With thanks, I JethroBT (WMF), Community Resources 15:56, 31 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

 

Through June, we’re organizing an Inspire Campaign to encourage and support new ideas focusing on addressing harassment toward Wikimedia contributors. The 2015 Harassment Survey has shown evidence that harassment in various forms - name calling, threats, discrimination, stalking, and impersonation, among others - is pervasive. Available methods and systems to deal with harassment are also considered to be ineffective. These behaviors are clearly harmful, and in addition, many individuals who experience or witness harassment participate less in Wikimedia projects or stop contributing entirely.

Proposals in any language are welcome during the campaign - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Constructive feedback on ideas is appreciated, and collaboration is encouraged - your skills and experience may help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign so that we can work together to develop ideas around this important and difficult issue. With thanks,

2016 Community Wishlist Survey

edit

Hi,

You’re getting this message because you participated in the 2015 Community Wishlist Survey and we want to make sure you don't miss it this year – or at least can make the conscious choice to ignore if it you want to. The 2015 survey decided what the Community Tech team should work on during 2016. It was also the focus of Wikimedia hackathons and work by other developers. You can see the status of wishes from the 2015 wishlist at 2015 Community Wishlist Survey/Results.

The 2016 Community Wishlist Survey is now open for wishes. You can create proposals until November 20. You will be able to vote on which wishes you think are best or most important between November 28 and December 12. /Johan (WMF) (talk) via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 11:17, 14 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your user page

edit

Hi! User on fiwiki wondered who is a "power user" :). You should tell on your global user page that you are a global interface editor, see Interface editors#Communication. Stryn (talk) 21:33, 18 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Stryn: Done, thanks! --Sophivorus (talk) 21:46, 18 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
The power user should notice that the link Interface editors works only on Meta. His user page on Meta is transcluded everywhere and results in links that do not work on the projects. The link should point to meta by using some power tools that are readily available. --Pxos (talk) 09:55, 19 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Pxos: Fixed, thanks! --Sophivorus (talk) 15:11, 19 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Global editinterface

edit

The right was planned to expire last month, but we had a problem with our bot that keeps our log clean, and it was not removed until now. It has been removed. If you still need it, please open a renewal request on SRGP. Thanks. — regards, Revi 17:26, 16 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Re-granted for 1 year. Matiia (talk) 18:13, 24 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Global interface editor

edit

Hola Sophivorus. Espero que estés bien. Quería informarte que tus permisos de editor global de interfaz están previstos para caducar el día 24 de febrero. Aún falta algún tiempo pero quería comentártelo con antelación por si luego se me pasaba o algo, para que en caso de que los sigas necesitando puedas pedir la prórroga con antelación y así evitar que estés unos días sin los permisos para el caso de que estos hubieran expirado ya. Un saludo, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 21:31, 2 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Propuesta Web2Cit

edit

Hola, Sophivorus! Con Scann presentamos una propuesta para desarrollar un editor visual para translators de Citoid/Zotero, con el objetivo de que usuarios sin los conocimientos técnicos necesarios puedan ayudar a expandir las capacidades de Citoid para generar citas automáticamente a partir de fuentes web. Como tu herramienta ProveIt hace uso de la API de Citoid, pensamos que podía interesarte la propuesta. Si tenés comentarios, preguntas, sugerencias o críticas, nos encantaría recibirlas en la página de discusión de la propuesta. Lo mismo si estuvieras de acuerdo y quisieras apoyarla con tu endorsement. ¡Gracias! --Diegodlh (talk) 23:10, 17 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

A big thank you for organizing #WikiForHumanRights! And please give us feedback!

edit

Both UN Human Rights and the WMF team are really grateful. Initial data suggests that this year we doubled the volume of content created and grew the campaign in languages and geographies. This kind of activation only works when we have local-organizers doing targeted outreach to their communities.

We are still learning how to organize this campaign, would like your feedback. Please fill out this survey at: this google form.

We will use the summary of findings and recommendations from the survey for the report on the campaign and for designing next year’s campaign. Our hope is to support more decentralized events, potentially with less experienced organizers -- so we need your help understanding what worked, what didn’t and what kinds of preparation we need to help communities with next year.

Please note that the collected information in this survey will be treated as in WikiForHumanRights Organizer Feedback Privacy Statement.--MBakni (WMF) (talk) 19:11, 15 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
