V anglické Wikipedii startuje nový notifikační systém
Náš tým pro zapojení editorů spustil 30. dubna na anglické Wikipedii nový Notifikační systém (známý též jako Echo). Systém informuje editory o změnách, které se jich týkají, například když dostanou zprávu na své diskusní stránce, když někdo vrátí zpět nějakou jejich editaci nebo když jim jiný uživatel děkuje za editaci. Notifikační systém je testován a upravován na základě odezvy od komunity. Později bude spuštěn i na ostatních jazykových mutacích Wikipedie a na ostatních projektech Wikimedia.
Obsah Wikidat lze nyní použít ve všech Wikipediích
Wikidata začala sloužit všem jazykovým mutacím Wikipedie jako společný zdroj strukturovaných dat, který lze použít v libovolném článku ve Wikipedii, např. v infoboxech. Strojově čitelná znalostní báze ve Wikidatech už v tuto chvíli obsahuje přes 11 miliónů položek. Rostoucí sbírka nástrojů pomáhá s dotazy, vyhodnocováním a údržbou Wikidat.
Wikimedia Commons app announced for iOS and Android
The Wikimedia Commons mobile app was officially announced in April, allowing quick and easy image uploads directly from mobile devices. It is available for both iOS and Android devices. Mobile users who don't have the app installed can still upload images from the mobile web version of all Wikimedia projects.
Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) publishes its recommendations about $1.2 million
Launched in 2012, the Funds Dissemination Committee is a group of Wikimedia volunteers tasked with helping to decide about the use of movement funds. On April 28, after a period of evaluation by supporting staff and public review by the community, it published its recommendations to the Wikimedia Board of Trustees about the second round of funding requests, by four organizations: Wikimedia Czech Republic (requested: $14,084.50, recommended: $0), Wikimedia Hong Kong (requested: $211,660.26, recommended: $0), Wikimedia Norway (requested: $235,715, recommended: $140,000), and Wikimedia France (requested: $747,259, recommended: $525,000).
New conflict of interest guidelines
With an immediate effective date, the Board of Trustees approved Wikimedia guidelines on the disclosure of potential and actual conflicts of interest in requesting and allocating movement resources (such as financial grants). Input provided by the community during a six-week consultation period greatly improved the original version.
