[edit] Media participation survey

Please modify sitenotice in Ukrainian, as it looks too unattractive in English. It should say:

Допоможіть нам зробити завантаження зображень до Meta простішим, витративши 2 хвилини на опитування!

Thanks in advance! — NickK 20:12, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Greetings. I added it; thanks for your translation! guillom 20:17, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Looks like you added link incorrectly. Link does not work properly — NickK 21:23, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

• And question: what need to edit such short massages?--Prima klasy4na 21:30, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Are you saying that the Ukrainian notice should direct to the survey in Russian? guillom 13:36, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

• Parameter: &lang=uk does not support. I think, that Russian language is more usable for Ukrainians, but this is my own mind.--Prima klasy4na 13:46, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

• Please, make one of 3 variants: 1. Delete 2. Change to lang-en <a href=""></a> 3. Change to lang-ru <a href=""></a>--88.154.13.224 14:26, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks all, I fixed the link and added the "ru" link. guillom 15:46, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] MediaWiki:Centralnotice-mediasurvey commons-survey-text/bs

Please make and publish (take a look at link if its right or not):

Pomozite nam da olakšamo postavljanje slika na {{{SITENAME}}} time što ćete odgovoriti na pitanja ovog <a href="http://survey.wikimedia.org/index.php?sid=18379&lang=bs">dvominutnog upitnika</a>!

THX. --WizardOfOz 20:25, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, I added the translation of the sitenotice. However, the survey is not available in Bosnian. guillom 13:37, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Not matter, the most can answer on english. It looks better if centralnotice is in the same language like project. --WizardOfOz 23:37, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] New "scientific refs" for Wikipedia

Article view when script SciRefs is running. Demo page - http://ru.great.wikia.com/wiki/Zinc

Greetings,

I wrote a new script for Wikipedia which replaces tags "ref". My script implements in the scientific (Harvard) style, but it is also compatible with tag "ref" and other markup.

Here are some examples of how my script is used:

[name] - is link, e.g. [Smith 2009] or [Smith 2009| p.121]

[*name] - is an anchor, e.g. [*Smith 2009]

For compatibility reasons, an editor should insert the template {{SciRefsOn}} somewhere in the page to turn the script on.

Additional details (description with screenshoots) can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:X-romix/SciRefs

Demo Wiki with working realisation - is here: http://ru.great.wikia.com/wiki/Zinc

I would like to help make Wikipedia more user-friendly. When using this script, backlinks may be accessed via the "Back" button in the browser or the backspace key on the keyboard. This backlink will be highlighted.

This reference style is simpler than the current convention, and it corresponds to the scientific standard (author-date Harvard referencing system).[1]

Jimbo Wales commented on my work the following way: I strongly support making refs easier to read and easier to use. You might want to pass this along to the usability team?--Jimbo Wales (talk) 22:32, 5 November 2009 (UTC) [2]
