Tahun baru[sunting sumber]

WBM tidak membuat sambutan tahun baharu 2015 ke?? - Muhd Aiman65 (bincang) 7:07, 31 Disember (UTC)

@Muhd Aiman65:: Kekurangan penyelia menyebabkan kami tak dapat nak lakukan. Lagi2 pula ramai penyelia tak aktif mungkin disebabkan banjir. SNN95 10:47, 31 Disember 2014 (UTC)[balas]

Jemput undi @Muhd Aiman65: dan @SyahirSQRT2: di sini. Azim Melaka (bincang) 13:31, 1 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

Terima kasih invite, @Ajeem95:. Woo, kita mula tahun dengan undian. Hope this year will turn out good. Syahir√2 (bs) 14:29, 1 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

Terima kasih @Ajeem95: kerana beritahu, dah lama WBM ni tak ada pelantikan penyelia. - Muhd Aiman65 (bincang 7:16, 2 Januari 2015 (UTC)

Setuju @Muhd Aiman65:, kali terakhir perlantikan penyelia pun tahun 2013 iaitu @SNN95:. Walaupun saya masih belum menyertai Wikipedia pada zaman tersebut, tetapi saya ingin merasai sebenarnya. Paling meriah sekitar akhir 2012 hingga pertengahan 2013. Itu pun saya melihat sejarah kegemilangan WBM di Wikipedia:Pengumuman/Arkib 2013. Alangkah bagusnya jika dulu saya melalui zaman tersebut. Sayangnya sekarang penyelia seperti Aplikasi, Ranking Update dan JerichoNation dah bersara. Harap tahun 2015 ini lebih cemerlang daripada 2013. Cuma saya kekurangan idea nak cipta rencana.Azim Melaka (bincang) 01:28, 2 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]
rencana baru akan menyusahkan proses pemantauan oleh penyelia supaya berada pada kualiti terbaik --Ab8 (bincang) 00:19, 12 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]
Kami di WBM tidak kisah pasal kualiti atau kuantiti kerana setiap individu berhak untuk mencipta rencana yg dirasakan sesuai. Jangan menghalang usaha orang lain untuk mencipta rencana baru! Kenapa dengan anda ni @Ab8:! Sejujurnya, saya sudah meluat dan menyampah melihat sikap anda ini! Sekiranya anda terlalu mementingkan kualiti dan ingin mempertikaikan hasil usaha orang lain! Silakan keluar daripada Wikipedia bahasa Melayu dan pilih Wikipedia bahasa lain yang anda inginkan! Jangan memperlekeh hasil usaha orang lain. Untuk pengetahuan anda! Hasil kemajuan Wikipedia bahasa Melayu meningkat maju dari 30,000+ rencana pada tahun 2008 sehingga 200,000 rencana pada tahun 2013 adalah hasil usaha pengguna lain terutama sekali bekas penyelia WBM @Aplikasi: dan penyelia @Yosri:. Jadi anda sebagai pengguna baru lebih baik diam. Dan jika anda tidak mahu menyumbang sekalipun, jangan mempertikaikan hasil usaha orang lain yang telah bertungkus-lumus memajukan Wikipedia bahasa Melayu! Orang macam anda inilah yang akan menghalang kemajuan Wikipedia bahasa Melayu. Wikipedia ini juga dimajukan bersama-sama antara pengguna biasa dan penyelia. Saya ingatkan anda sekali lagi @Ab8:, jangan mempertikaikan hasil usaha orang lain. Sikap anda boleh diumpamakan seperti pengguna sebelum ini. Lihat [disini]. Anda juga boleh membaca melalui perbincangan di [disini], para penyelia sendiri tidak kisah mengenai sesuatu rencana yang dicipta, mengapa anda yang bukan penyelia seperti saya ingin mempertikaikan hasil usaha orang lain? Minta maaf sekiranya saya berterus-terang, anda ini hanya menganggu komuniti di Wikipedia. Saya ambil semua apa yg saudara penyelia @Algazel: pernah menyatakan dahulu dan saya tujukan kepada anda.Anda ada cadangan? Kalau tak ada, baik diam dan hormati usaha orang lain. Rencana2 sedemikian ada membantu dalam penulisan rencana2 lain, misalnya Masjid Azizi. Maaf cakap ya wahai Ab8, tapi selalunya anda kena fikir sebelum menurunkan soalan atau komen di laman awam wiki ini. Jangan sesuka hati anda terus persoalkan usaha orang lain macam apa dibuat @Yosri: dan @Aplikasi:: dengan botnya. Anda umur berapa? Terus terang sebenarnya saya terlalu muak dengan ulasan2 anda. Dan ya, saya sudah fikirkan komen saya ini. Dan juga, anda selalu menentang dan juga merosakkan undian pengguna yang paling layak diangkat sebagai penyelia dan saya malas dan melayan ulasan bodoh anda kononnya rencana baru akan menyusahkan proses pemantauan oleh penyelia supaya berada pada kualiti terbaik. Anda penyelia ke? Penyelia sendiri tidak menghalang hasil usaha orang lain malah turut menyumbang sekali dalam kerja2 penciptaan rencana baru. Tolonglah jangan bersikap seperti anda seorang penyelia.

Laman yang menggunakan argumen pendua dalam panggilan templat[sunting sumber]

Boleh tak sesiapa tolong terangkan apa maksud ini "Laman yang menggunakan argumen pendua dalam panggilan templat". Sebab bila buat laman, tiba-tiba keluar benda itu. - Muhd Aiman65 (bincang) 23:16, 6 Januari 2015

Saya juga setuju dengan pendapat awak. Mohon penjelasan. -- محمد حكيمي Mari berbincang! 01:30, 7 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

Ia bermaksud templat tu menggunakan parameter-parameter yang berulang. Cuba lihat templat {{Manchester United F.C. squad}} yang anda gunakan untuk lebih memahami. Saya dah betulkan.

Vandalisme[sunting sumber]

Penggunaan istilah 区 (Ku)[sunting sumber]

Salam sejahtera. Saya ingin bertanya mengenai penterjemahan bagi kawasan pentadbiran dalam bahasa Melayu. Saya terlihat perkataan 区 / 區 "Ku, Qu, Gu" (dalam bahasa Jepun, Cina / Korea, Cina) dalam Wikipedia bahasa Inggeris gunakan dua istilah iaitu ward (Jepun) dan district (Korea) (Untuk negara China juga digunakan istilah district). Saya tertanya-tanya, kenapa ada istilah wad (区) dalam bahasa Melayu? Saya lihat istilah tersebut tiada dalam PRPM tetapi hanya istilah "mukim/daerah". Jadi istilah apakah yang betul? Harap sesiapa dapat membantu saya.

Nota:

  • Dalam Wikipedia bahasa Inggeris, lagi satu perkataan yang saya terjumpa adalah 郡 "gun" (dalam bahasa Korea, Cina dan Jepun). Ia juga diterjemahkan dalam dua istilah yang berbeza iaitu district (Jepun) dan county (Korea).
  • Kedua-dua istilah 区/區 dan 郡 mempunyai konteks dan maksud yang sama dalam ketiga-tiga bahasa tersebut.

26 Ramadan (Bincang) 02:46, 15 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

Bagi sayalah, terjemahan yang paling sesuai bagi ialah daerah dan ialah wilayah. --توفيق بينچڠ 07:03, 15 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]
Untuk 区, guna mukim (kawasan yg di bawah perintah seorang penghulu) kerana sesuai dengan maksud ward. --Kurnia [ bual ] 04:06, 16 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]
@Malaysiaboy: Saya rasa 郡 untuk wilayah tidak sesuai. Perkataan 道 "do" (Korea) atau 県 "ken, xian" (Jepun, Cina) bagi saya lebih sesuai. @Kurniasan:, saya sependapat dengan anda.

Dalam WBM, ada banyak rencana tentang sekolah-sekolah, dan saya takkan protes; rencana sekolah dijamin terkecuali daripada WP:N setakat mana yang saya faham. Tapi, ada terlalu banyak rencana sekolah yang kekurangan rujukan. Sesetengah sekolah mempunyai laman sesawang rasmi, tetapi kebanyakan sekolah ada mempunyai blog sendiri di mana pihak pengurusan menulis berkenaan berita-berita, serta memberikan beberapa maklumat berkenaan sekolah tersebut.

Soalan saya ialah bolehkah blog-blog ini dikira sebagai sumber rujukan yang sahih, atau adakah ia dikira sebagai sumber terbitan sendiri? Selain itu, bolehkah ia dikira sebagai "laman sesawang rasmi" sekolah tersebut? Jika tidak, apa yang dikira sebagai laman sesawang rasmi sesebuah sekolah?

Kalau-kalau soalan ini pernah dijawab sebelum ini, saya minta maaf sangat-sangat sebab buat benda jadi redundant. Apa-apa, siapa-siapa yang nak respon, saya ucap terima kasih sangat. Syahir√2 (bs) 18:32, 18 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

@SyahirSQRT2: Sekolah tidak mempunyai bajet untuk menyediakan pelayan (server) yang hanya dikhaskan untuk web dan penyimpanan data sekolah. Blospot menjadi pilihan sekolah bagi merekodkan apa yang berlaku dan maklumat tentang sekolah itu. Jika di Wikipedia, rujukan sebegitu amatlah dilarang kerana menggunakan laman sosial. Tetapi bagi saya, laman rujukan seperti blog mungkin boleh dijadikan sumber rujukan kerana sekolah menganggapnya sebagai laman rasmi sama seperti peraturan yang membenarkan rujukan untuk organisasi menggunakan laman web rasmi. Itu pandangan saya, tak tahu pula pandangan penyelia lain. Jangan ambil serius sangat sebab pandangan saya tak termaktub dalam polisi Wikipedia. SNN95 06:28, 19 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

@SyahirSQRT2: & @SNN95: Mengikut en:WP:UGC, kebanyakan sumber terbitan sendiri (self-published, termasuk blog) tidak dikira sebagai sumber yang boleh dipercayai dan oleh itu tidak boleh diterima sebagai rujukan di Wikipedia. Walaupun adalah difahami bahawa banyak sekolah kecil tidak mempunyai pelayan sendiri supaya mempunyai tapak web rasmi, kami sebenarnya juga tidak dapat ketahui siapa di belakang blog tersebut – sesiapa pun boleh berpura-pura menjadi sebuah sekolah. Juga, rencana sekolah tidak terkecuali dari WP:N. Ia sahaja terkecuali dari WP:KPS#R7. Dari WP:N: "Sekiranya sumber bersesuaian tidak dijumpai, kami mempertimbang supaya kandungan rencana digabungkan dalam rencana yang memberikan konteks lebih umum" (di enwiki); dan dari nota kaki ke-5 WP:N: "...rencana tentang sekolah wajar digabungkan kepada daerah-daerah di mana letaknya sekolah-sekolah tersebut..." (di enwiki).

Sementara kami berada dalam topik sekolah, saya terlihat banyak rencana sekolah dengan lagu/visi/misi sekolah seperti di sini, di sini, di sini, di sini dan banyak lagi. Bahan-bahan tersebut adalah berhak cipta secara automatik di bawah Konvensyen Berne dan tidak boleh digunakan di Wikipedia tanpa ulasan berkritik mengikut en:WP:NFCCEG dan WP:BW#Kegunaan yang boleh diterima. Oleh itu, lagu-lagu sekolah dan bahan-bahan berhak cipta tanpa kegunaan yang boleh diterima mestilah dikeluarkan dari Wikipedia kerana mereka merupakan pelanggaran hak cipta.

Juga, terdapat banyak rencana-rencana sekolah yang pendek/tunas yang mengandungi sebuah alamat sahaja, tiada kandungan lain lagi. Sambil gagal WP:N, Wikipedia bukanlah sebuah direktori dan rencana-rencana tersebut, jika tidak dikembangkan, patut digabungkan kepada rencana daerah-daerah mereka (seperti di atas) ataupun mereka boleh dihapuskan. – Pizza1016 (bincang (ms) | talk (en) | sumb) 06:01, 29 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

@Pizza1016: Betul juga! Jadi, halaman utama rencana sekolah hanya menjadi laman pelencongan yang melencong ke rencana daerah atau tempat yang berkaitan dengan sekolah/institusi. Bagi saya, laman senarai juga bagus untuk sekolah/institusi ni. SNN95 08:37, 29 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]
@Pizza1016:@SNN95:Oleh itu, adakah laman-laman sekolah yang sedia ada dan bukan merupakan rencana tunas perlu dihapuskan? Mohon pandangan kalian. -- محمد حكيمي (bincang!) @ (sumbangan?) 02:51, 30 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]
@5662595lai: Andai ikutkan peraturan memang sebegitu. Rencana sekolah yang sedia ada patut dihapuskan kerana tidak mempunyai sumber yang kukuh. Tetapi eloklah jika rencana itu dilencongkan ke dalam senarai sekolah dalam daerah atau ada rencana senarai sendiri. Jika sekolah itu ada pengiktirafan dunia atau Malaysia, karangkan satu bahagian dalam senarai atau daerah yang berkaitan dengan sekolah/institusi itu serba sedikit. SNN95 02:59, 30 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

Pertolongan[sunting sumber]

Ada tak penyelia yang boleh menggabungkan rencana Laporan Razak dan Penyata Razak 1956? Kedua-dua rencana ini boleh menimbulkan kekeliruan kepada pengguna lain mengenai laman mana yang patut mereka rujukkan. -- محمد حكيمي (bincang!) @ (sumbangan?) 02:57, 30 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

@5662595lai: Sudah! Anda juga boleh melakukannya. Takpe kalau salah kami boleh bantu membetulkannya. SNN95 03:13, 30 Januari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

Salah satu artikel kena vandal[sunting sumber]

Perhatian. Saya nak melaporkan salah satu artikel kena vandal iaitu, Senarai persatuan di Malaysia. AsyrafFile (bincang) 08:08, 3 Februari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

Rencana ini akan dicalonkan untuk penghapusan. Terlalu banyak masukan kelab/persatuan yang wujud hanya melalui laman sosial. Jika betul wujud di dunia sertakan bukti. Dan @AsyrafFile: terima kasih kerana menyatakan hal ini. SNN95 09:09, 3 Februari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

Artikel bagus[sunting sumber]

WBM tidak ada "artikel bagus" (bintang berwarna hitam jika lihat pada tetingkap bahasa) ke macam kebanyakan wikipedia-wikipedia yang lain? - Muhd Aiman65 (bincang) 6:34, 15 Disember 2015 (UTC)

@Muhd Aiman65: Kalau boleh nak sangat buat. Tapi nak buat semua tak larat la... dan sekali lagi saya ungkitkan pasal kekurangan penyelia. Jika ada ramai penyunting yang sanggup menjalankan operasi ni, kami ikutkan sahaja. Janji ikut peraturan. SNN95 10:15, 17 Februari 2015 (UTC)[balas]

Inspire Campaign: Improving diversity, improving content[sunting sumber]

This March, we’re organizing an Inspire Campaign to encourage and support new ideas for improving gender diversity on Wikimedia projects. Less than 20% of Wikimedia contributors are women, and many important topics are still missing in our content. We invite all Wikimedians to participate. If you have an idea that could help address this problem, please get involved today! The campaign runs until March 31.

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, positive 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 and help this project better represent the world’s knowledge!

Saya mahukan explanation, kenapa kebanyakan pengguna wikipedia melayu ini terlalu bebal sangat nak buat suntingan hebat...sampaikan penyelia pun bebal dan sering ambil jalan mudah serta bercuti, apa jeniskah orang seperti ini? Nak buat rencana panjang pun malas dengan liat....cuma ambil jalan mudah buat rencana baru... tambah pula dengan pengguna alamat IP buat rencana bebal dan karu-marut...tambahan lagi dengan pengguna berdaftar wikipedia melayu yang terlalu malas nak guna otak dan akal.... nak buat rencana tapi tak letak kategori...buat templat pun susah dan malas... cubalah jadi expert dalam buat suntingan... kan ada kotak pasir...nanti saya katakan pengguna wiki melayu malas dan bebal, nanti marah, inilah hakikatnya...sedarlah... think about it... maafkan saya banyak-banyak atas my complaint...

Jika anda ingin jadi sukarelawan, anda dialu-alukan menyertai kami, tetapi tidak perlu mempersoalkan sumbangan orang lain. Semua penyelia perlu melepasi tapisan dan telah menyumbang sekurang-kurangnya melebihi tempoh tiga bulan, dan dilantik melalui undian. Anda boleh memeriksa sumbangan anda di sini.

Maafkan saya banyak-banyak, saya cuma hendak pengguna wiki melayu pandai buat rencana berkualiti, kalau rencana wiki melayu banyak yang panjang dan berkualiti, pembaca internet yang masuk ke wiki melayu boleh mencari informasi berguna dan banyak ilmu boleh diperolehi dari rencana yang panjang dan berkualiti, sehinggakan informasi dari wiki melayu boleh dikongsi dalam blogspot, tidakkah perkara seperti itu perlu dititikberatkan?

This is a message from the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee. Translations are available.

Greetings,

I am pleased to announce that nominations are now being accepted for the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections. This year the Board and the FDC Staff are looking for a diverse set of candidates from regions and projects that are traditionally under-represented on the board and in the movement as well as candidates with experience in technology, product or finance. To this end they have published letters describing what they think is needed and, recognizing that those who know the community the best are the community themselves, the election committee is accepting nominations for community members you think should run and will reach out to those nominated to provide them with information about the job and the election process.

This year, elections are being held for the following roles:

Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long term sustainability of the Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. There are three positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the board elections page.

Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)
The Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) makes recommendations about how to allocate Wikimedia movement funds to eligible entities. There are five positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC elections page.

Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) Ombud
The FDC Ombud receives complaints and feedback about the FDC process, investigates complaints at the request of the Board of Trustees, and summarizes the investigations and feedback for the Board of Trustees on an annual basis. One position is being filled. More information about this role can be found at the FDC Ombudsperson elections page.

The candidacy submission phase lasts from 00:00 UTC April 20 to 23:59 UTC May 5 for the Board and from 00:00 UTCApril 20 to 23:59 UTC April 30 for the FDC and FDC Ombudsperson. This year, we are accepting both self-nominations and nominations of others. More information on this election and the nomination process can be found on the 2015 Wikimedia elections page on Meta-Wiki.

Please feel free to post a note about the election on your project's village pump. Any questions related to the election can be posted on the talk page on Meta, or sent to the election committee's mailing list, board-elections -at- wikimedia.org

Pywikibot compat will no longer be supported - Please migrate to pywikibot core[sunting sumber]

Sorry for English, I hope someone translates this.
Pywikibot (then "Pywikipediabot") was started back in 2002. In 2007 a new branch (formerly known as "rewrite", now called "core") was started from scratch using the MediaWiki API. The developers of Pywikibot have decided to stop supporting the compat version of Pywikibot due to bad performance and architectural errors that make it hard to update, compared to core. If you are using pywikibot compat it is likely your code will break due to upcoming MediaWiki API changes (e.g. T101524). It is highly recommended you migrate to the core framework. There is a migration guide, and please contact us if you have any problem.

There is an upcoming MediaWiki API breaking change that compat will not be updated for. If your bot's name is in this list, your bot will most likely break.

Thank you,

Proposal to create PNG thumbnails of static GIF images[sunting sumber]

The thumbnail of this gif is of really bad quality.
How a PNG thumb of this GIF would look like

There is a proposal at the Commons Village Pump requesting feedback about the thumbnails of static GIF images: It states that static GIF files should have their thumbnails created in PNG. The advantages of PNG over GIF would be visible especially with GIF images using an alpha channel. (compare the thumbnails on the side)

This change would affect all wikis, so if you support/oppose or want to give general feedback/concerns, please post them to the proposal page. Thank you. --McZusatz (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (bincang) 05:08, 24 Julai 2015 (UTC)[balas]

What does a Healthy Community look like to you?[sunting sumber]

Hi,
The Community Engagement department at the Wikimedia Foundation has launched a new learning campaign. The WMF wants to record community impressions about what makes a healthy online community. Share your views and/or create a drawing and take a chance to win a Wikimania 2016 scholarship! Join the WMF as we begin a conversation about Community Health. Contribute a drawing or answer the questions on the campaign's page.

Why get involved?[sunting sumber]

The world is changing. The way we relate to knowledge is transforming. As the next billion people come online, the Wikimedia movement is working to bring more users on the wiki projects. The way we interact and collaborate online are key to building sustainable projects. How accessible are Wikimedia projects to newcomers today? Are we helping each other learn?
Share your views on this matter that affects us all!
We invite everyone to take part in this learning campaign. Wikimedia Foundation will distribute one Wikimania Scholarship 2016 among those participants who are eligible.

Wikidata: Access to data from arbitrary items is coming[sunting sumber]

(Sorry for writing in English)

When using data from Wikidata on Wikipedia and other sister projects, there is currently a limitation in place that hinders some use cases: data can only be accessed from the corresponding item. So, for example, the Wikipedia article about Berlin can only get data from the Wikidata item about Berlin but not from the item about Germany. This had technical reasons. We are now removing this limitation. It is already done for many projects. Your project is one of the next ones. We will roll out this feature here on August 12.

We invite you to play around with this new feature if you are one of the people who have been waiting for this for a long time. If you have technical issues/questions with this you can come to d:Wikidata:Contact the development team.

A note of caution: Please be careful with how many items you use for a single page. If it is too many pages, loading might get slow. We will have to see how the feature behaves in production to see where we need to tweak and how.

How to use it, once it is enabled:

Wikiproject Erasmus Prize Winners[sunting sumber]

Dear fellow wikipedians,

My apologies for using English here, please help translate if you are able.
Wikipedia has been awarded the Erasmus Prize 2015. This international prize is awarded annually to a person or institution that has made an exceptional contribution to culture, society or social science. The King of the Netherlands will present the award on 25 November. This will create media attention which will hopefully result in plenty of new volunteers. Prior to the award ceremony we would like to write and improve articles on former Erasmus Prize winners. All 80 former laureates should be notable enough to merit an article.

Please join the project and help us provide our fellow laureates with articles.

Wikimania 2016 scholarships ambassadors needed[sunting sumber]

Hello! Wikimania 2016 scholarships will soon be open; by the end of the week we'll form the committee and we need your help, see Scholarship committee for details.

If you want to carefully review nearly a thousand applications in January, you might be a perfect committee member. Otherwise, you can volunteer as "ambassador": you will observe all the committee activities, ensure that people from your language or project manage to apply for a scholarship, translate scholarship applications written in your language to English and so on. Ambassadors are allowed to ask for a scholarship, unlike committee members.

ESEA Newsletter is out! Check out some amazing work done by Wikimedia Communities in East and Southeast Asia! Here is the summary of the Newsletter.

-- Addis Wang (WMCN)

This is a message regarding the proposed 2015 Free Bassel banner. Translations are available.

Hi everyone,

This is to inform all Wikimedia contributors that a straw poll seeking your involvement has just been started on Meta-Wiki.

As some of your might be aware, a small group of Wikimedia volunteers have proposed a banner campaign informing Wikipedia readers about the urgent situation of our fellow Wikipedian, open source software developer and Creative Commons activist, Bassel Khartabil. An exemplary banner and an explanatory page have now been prepared, and translated into about half a dozen languages by volunteer translators.

We are seeking your involvement to decide if the global Wikimedia community approves starting a banner campaign asking Wikipedia readers to call on the Syrian government to release Bassel from prison. We understand that a campaign like this would be unprecedented in Wikipedia's history, which is why we're seeking the widest possible consensus among the community.

Given Bassel's urgent situation and the resulting tight schedule, we ask everyone to get involved with the poll and the discussion to the widest possible extent, and to promote it among your communities as soon as possible.

(Apologies for writing in English; please kindly translate this message into your own language.)

Thank you for your participation!

As many of you know, January 15 is Wikipedia’s 15th Birthday!

People around the world are getting involved in the celebration and have started adding their events on Meta Page. While we are celebrating Wikipedia's birthday, we hope that all projects and affiliates will be able to utilize this celebration to raise awareness of our community's efforts.

Haven’t started planning? Don’t worry, there’s lots of ways to get involved. Here are some ideas:

Everything is linked on the Wikipedia 15 Meta page. You’ll find a set of ten data visualization works that you can show at your events, and a list of all the Wikipedia 15 logos that community members have already designed.

If you have any questions, please contact Zachary McCune or Joe Sutherland.

Thanks and Happy nearly Wikipedia 15!
