redaktiStewards confirmation rules
redaktiHello, I made a proposal on Meta to change the rules for the steward confirmations. Currently consensus to remove is required for a steward to lose his status, however I think it's fairer to the community if every steward needed the consensus to keep. As this is an issue that affects all WMF wikis, I'm sending this notification to let people know & be able to participate. Best regards, --MF-W 16:12, 10 Apr. 2015 (UTC)

Did you know?
Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has fixed many bugs and worked on VisualEditor's performance, the Citoid reference service, and support for languages with complex input requirements. Status reports are posted on Mediawiki.org. The worklist for April through June is available in Phabricator.
The weekly task triage meetings continue to be open to volunteers, each Wednesday at 11:00 (noon) PDT (18:00 UTC). You do not need to attend the meeting to nominate a bug for consideration as a Q4 blocker. Instead, go to Phabricator and "associate" the Editing team's Q4 blocker project with the bug. Learn how to join the meetings and how to nominate bugs at mw:Talk:VisualEditor/Portal.
Recent improvements
redaktiVisualEditor is now substantially faster. In many cases, opening the page in VisualEditor is now faster than opening it in the wikitext editor. The new system has improved the code speed by 37% and network speed by almost 40%.
The Editing team is slowly adding auto-fill features for citations. This is currently available only at the French, Italian, and English Wikipedias. The Citoid service takes a URL or DOI for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. After creating it, you will be able to change or add information to the citation, in the same way that you edit any other pre-existing citation in VisualEditor. Support for ISBNs, PMIDs, and other identifiers is planned. Later, editors will be able to improve precision and reduce the need for manual corrections by contributing to the Citoid service's definitions for each website.
Citoid requires good TemplateData for your citation templates. If you would like to request this feature for your wiki, please post a request in the Citoid project on Phabricator. Include links to the TemplateData for the most important citation templates on your wiki.
The special character inserter has been improved, based upon feedback from active users. After this, VisualEditor was made available to all users of Wikipedias on the Phase 5 list on 30 March. This affected 53 mid-size and smaller Wikipedias, including Afrikaans, Azerbaijani, Breton, Kyrgyz, Macedonian, Mongolian, Tatar, and Welsh.
Work continues to support languages with complex requirements, such as Korean and Japanese. These languages use input method editors ("IMEs”). Recent improvements to cursoring, backspace, and delete behavior will simplify typing in VisualEditor for these users.
The design for the image selection process is now using a "masonry fit" model. Images in the search results are displayed at the same height but at variable widths, similar to bricks of different sizes in a masonry wall, or the "packed" mode in image galleries. This style helps you find the right image by making it easier to see more details in images.
You can now drag and drop categories to re-arrange their order of appearance on the page.
The pop-up window that appears when you click on a reference, image, link, or other element, is called the "context menu". It now displays additional useful information, such as the destination of the link or the image's filename. The team has also added an explicit "Edit" button in the context menu, which helps new editors open the tool to change the item.
Invisible templates are marked by a puzzle piece icon so they can be interacted with. Users also will be able to see and edit HTML anchors now in section headings.
Users of the TemplateData GUI editor can now set a string as an optional text for the 'deprecated' property in addition to boolean value, which lets you tell users of the template what they should do instead. (T90734)
Looking ahead
redaktiThe special character inserter in VisualEditor will soon use the same special character list as the wikitext editor. Admins at each wiki will also have the option of creating a custom section for frequently used characters at the top of the list. Instructions for customizing the list will be posted at mediawiki.org.
The team is discussing a test of VisualEditor with new users at the English Wikipedia, to see whether they have met their goals of making VisualEditor suitable for those editors. The timing is unknown, but might be relatively soon. (T90666)

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
On behalf of the Elections Committee,
-Gregory Varnum (User:Varnent)

redaktiNova bildo de la ŝablono Ruĝa ligilo
redaktiSaluton. Mi ĵus alŝutis la novan version de la bildo de la ŝablono Ruĝa ligilo. Mi rimarkas ke la bildo estas ŝanĝita en la paĝo de dosiero, sed oni povas vidi la malnovan version en la artikoloj kaj la dokumentado de la ŝablono. Ĉu mi devas atendi? (Pardonu min pro la eraroj, mi ne parolis Esperanton multe ekde 2 jaroj) Ĉiuĵaŭde Diskuto 15:05, 5 Apr. 2015 (UTC)
Helpilo por korekti artikolojn en la zorgiga kategorio "Paĝoj kun pluroblaj argumentoj en ŝablonvokoj"
redaktiSaluton. Mi ĵus trovis helpilon por uzantoj, kiuj volas korekti artikolojn, kiuj troviĝas en la kaŝa zorgiga kategorio Paĝoj kun pluroblaj argumentoj en ŝablonvokoj. Jen la ligilo http://tools_mfb.pancakeapps.com/templatepars.html Per tiu paĝo eblas almenaŭ trovi tion, kion rekte troviĝas en la artikola fontoteksto. --Tlustulimu (diskuto) 15:08, 9 Apr. 2015 (UTC)
- @KuboF: Mi ĵus provis korekti la artikolon 12-paŝa programo. Sed ĝi enhavas nur unu ŝablonon, nome {{Cite book}}. Ĉu la malnoviĝinta ŝablono eble iel kaŭzas la amason de pli ol 8000 artikoloj en la menciita kategorio? --Tlustulimu (diskuto) 17:43, 9 Apr. 2015 (UTC)
- {{Cite book}} interne uzas la ŝablonon Ŝablono:Citaĵo el libro, do eble tie estas problemo. Ĉiuokaze estas "nur" 1888 uzoj de ŝ:Cite book. --KuboF (diskuto) 12:08, 10 Apr. 2015 (UTC)
Tradukaĵo
redaktiMi trovis Vikipedio:Tradukado/San Cristóbal (Táchira). Tio estas malnova, krome la aŭtoro ne aperas. Necesas polurado kaj preskaŭ pretas artikolo. Kiu faris ĝin, kial oni ne pluredaktis ĝin? Krome San Cristóbal troviĝas en multaj landoj, tamen en Venez. nur ĉi tie, tial sufiĉas San Cristóbal (Venezuelo).--Crosstor (diskuto) 11:44, 16 Apr. 2015 (UTC)

redaktiPéter Kiss
redaktiMi faris malbonan ligilon al Péter Kiss, la komputilo ne akceptas mian ĝustigon. Péter Kiss ĝuste estus ligita al "Kiss Péter (politikus)".--Crosstor (diskuto) 05:53, 8 Apr. 2015 (UTC)
- @Crosstor: Ĉe mi ĝuste aperas la hungara ligilo hu:Kiss Péter (politikus) en la listo de la intervikioj, aranĝata per la vikidatuma ero d:Q1111980. Eble vi ne sukcesis aranĝi tion, ĉar alia uzanto de Vikidatumoj estis pli rapida. --Tlustulimu (diskuto) 10:41, 8 Apr. 2015 (UTC)
