SVG Translate Community wishlist survey project

Hello! Thank you for voting for the SVG Translate project that was proposed in the 2017 Wishlist survey. The Community Tech team in the Wikimedia Foundation is beginning to start their work on the project. We're currently looking for feedback on some open questions which will allow us to come up with preliminary designs for the tool. If you are interested in being involved, you can watch the project page and join in the discussions on the talk page. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and learning from your experiences. Thank you. -- NKohli (WMF), Product Manager, Community Tech (talk) 21:53, 16 August 2018 (UTC)

The Community Wishlist Survey

Hi,

You get this message because you’ve previously participated in the Community Wishlist Survey. I just wanted to let you know that this year’s survey is now open for proposals. You can suggest technical changes until 11 November: Community Wishlist Survey 2019.

You can vote from November 16 to November 30. To keep the number of messages at a reasonable level, I won’t send out a separate reminder to you about that. /Johan (WMF) 11:25, 30 October 2018 (UTC)

The Affiliate-selected Board seats process welcomes your support

Hello. You are receiving this message because you are active in the field of translations <3 The movement needs you! The Nominations phase has started for the ongoing selection process of two Board members, and the timeline is quite tight.

A Translation Central is available to help translators figure out what's been covered and what's left to do. Over the course of the next few weeks, your attention on candidates' profiles is particularly welcome.

While there are four languages that are especially relevant for multiple affiliates (namely Arabic, French, Russian and Spanish), you can also add others. If you can't help: please see if you know anyone in your circle who could, and spread the word :) Thank you! Elitre (WMF) and Facilitators of ASBS 2019, 13:20, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

Interesting to watch out

• Community Tech/SVG translation
• m:wikimania:2019:Languages/LinguaLibre.fr

LinguaLibre/SignIt/ja ready

Hi, @Yug, your request at Village Pump/ja is filled for SignIt and it is in ja now.

Can you maybe push LinguaLibre/SignIt#See also for translation as well please? That section includes links IMHO which those editing jawiki:手話 might need to follow sign languages topics:

• Actually, the section in that jawp article "sign languages in other parts of the world" is yet at its very start stage, with a {{tl:main|w:en:List of sign languages|w:ja:手話の一覧}}),
• and my hunch editors would gain some knowledge if the resource section, Sginit#See also, is also presented in ja (they will google-translate to read each source (; ).

Thank you again reaching out to jawp, and ping me anytime if you need short pages to en-ja translation. Cheers, -- Omotecho (talk) 06:39, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello Omotecho, thank you a lot for the translation already done, and for sharing your good will.

LinguaLibre/SignIt and Lingua Libre's video Recording Studio's translation into Japanese (and others) lays the way for later (2023 ?) video contributions in Japanese (and others) Sign Languages. So thank you for your help already.

Not before, not in 2022 due to one current technical issue.

Still, we look for contacts and volunteers to video record sign language words in 2023... If you have contacts in the Japanese deaf / hearing impaired / signing community who would be activist and motivated enough to spend hours recordings and creating a decent sign language dictionary (~400 words per hour), please let me know. Those hearing impaired activists are the rarest and most valuable assets for the next phases of this Sign language awareness project. Yug (talk) 07:05, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

Omotecho,

Following your message I expanded the English page and asked help to add the translation tags. More edits and text tinkering is expected this week. So I would encourage your to wait a week or so before translating into Japanese. (Note: my English is not perfect, so that may need a review as well) Yug (talk) 07:42, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello, @Yug, So wonderful that you introduced me to the coming stages how the ppl with special needs be served, and initiate another dimension of wikis in coming months.

(1) Will you list those pages on jawp for reference please?

• Still a Draft, but very resourceful: Wikipedia:アクセシビリティ (wikidata). It does not interlang-link to enwp, however, dewp and others link.
  • around 2017, active discussion covered how to care for color blindness;
  • also, to care for reading impaired/blinds, and how jawp will/will not abide to W3C recommendations on WCAG2.0 (W3C updated the recomm already);
  • discussion fruited to revise the draft, mainly centered around screen readers, not much topic about sign language therein.
• editors on jawp you might interview: an admin and bilingual, very busy; and another admin, who reads English.

Next topic (2). I may point out, we have two organizations that screen and issue certificate to sign language interpreters. our national broadcaster, NHK (half private and half governmental), airs daily a news program in sign language on weekdays. On weekend, they air weekly wrap-up with edited recording as well as small weekly corners.

(3) As I am yet to find circles organized by/for hearing/sight impaired on ja wikis, let me look around. If it were Brail, no other than the Tokyo Light House (a Brail library) is the driving force as they involved engineering sector to invent their DAISY system, or audio recording delivered from municipal libraries to individuals free of postage/rental fees.

(4) I now have a dream: that an audio translation/machine interpretation on your smartphone will realize one day. I will wisper to my iPhone, show the screen to my deaf friend, and she will watch the Machine translated sign played for her. yey! Cheers, Omotecho (talk) 16:40, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello Omotecho, For (1), ja:Wikipedia:アクセシビリティ has an English version, :en:Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility. But web accessibility is not the focus of SignIt. SignIt aims to demonstrate the reuse of Wikimedia Commons Sign Language video and promote Sign language learning among commoners. It is therefore first asking sign language interpreters or special needs people to contribute, so in the long run their friends and our societies become more sign-friendly and inclusive. So :en:Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility doesn't seems spot on to be included in the SignIt page. (2) Good to know, "sign language interpreters" will be an useful key word for future outreaches.

(3) It is difficult to find. But once in a while, there are some sign language people showing up and asking around can lead to some activists. We identified 2 in France, and we would like to collaborate with them in 2023. (4) I represented WM-fr at the 2022 Language Resources and Evaluation (international) Conference this July, We met some machine learning academic researches working precisely on such systems, doing either (A) sign language video recognition (video to text), or (B) text to sign language translation (text to video). Lingua Libre can help *a lot* the (A) but quickly producing few thousands videos to feed the Machine learning system. Then, the reverse (B) would be easier to do. Some good stuff is coming.

Vote à l'élection au siège communautaire de Wikimédia France

Bonjour,

Comme indiqué dans le bandeau vert en haut de page, les commentaires sont interdits sur la page de vote et doivent se faire sur la page de discussion de la candidature. Ton commentaire a donc été effacé.

Pour la commission électorale, Mathis B (talk) 17:49, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

@Mathis B: Oh, ok. Merci ! Yug (talk) 18:36, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Micro-financement

Bonjour Yug, Dois-je refaire une demande de Micro-financement si je veux ajouter une référence ou il est encore temps de modifier le tableau ? Merci et bonne soirée Zythème (talk) 17:12, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Bonjour user:Zythème, tant que le total demandé est conservé et que les améliorations apportées sont marginales tu peux éditer pour qu'on comprenne mieux. Si tu change le montant demandé ou si tu changes fondamentalement la demande, le processus peut etre remis a zero. (Note: Je suis un peu charger en semaine, plus libre le weekend). Yug (talk) 21:35, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

On peux aussi s'adapter (en:WP:5P5). Ajoutes ta référence qui est dans la lignée exacte de ta demande initiale. Elle te sera utile visiblement. Yug (talk) 21:39, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Bonjour Yug,

J'ai finalement fait une nouvelle demande, on peut clore l'ancienne. Zythème (talk) 11:14, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

{{Stale}} and {{StaleIP}}

Two months ago, you splitted the Stale into two templates, I wonder if there's discussions support your splittion? Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 05:23, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

Keke. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 11:57, 24 May 2023 (UTC)

Still, still, still, I'm waiting for your responses HERE! Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 03:45, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

And so far:

--Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 03:49, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Liuxinyu970226, after observation of the codes I can conclude the following :

• {{Stale}} is the parent template
  • {{StaleIP}} is one local usage of {Stale}, for IP.

I would recommend to keep them appart, but to document this difference. Yug (talk) 07:27, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Okay I got. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 07:38, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Done Liuxinyu970226, it appears {{StaleIP}} is a checkuser template, while {{Stale}} is a more generalist task template. Most of the code should be in Stale. {{Stale}} is the base which can be used, together with minor additional features such as specific categorization to create local-usage templates such as {{StaleIP}}.

Deleted. I hope we didn't mess something up :D TenWhile6 20:46, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

Thank you ! If so We will know fast ! XD Yug (talk) 20:54, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
