Re: Wikisource created

Hi, thanks for your help for creating & importing pages to Assamese Wikisource. I have not seen any missing pages, if I got such kind of matters, I will sure contact you. Thanks for the wishes. We hope so. Good bye. Bishnu Saikia (talk) 13:06, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"Sie" oder "du"

Hi MF-W, great that you're running for stewardship this year! I've translated your statement into Dutch. The Dutch language has, similar to the German language, a T–V distinction. I've chosen the "Sie" form. Please let me know if you want the use the "du" form instead. Kind regards, Mathonius (talk) 01:20, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

P.S.: I've stolen your templates - hope you don't mind. ;) Mathonius (talk) 01:20, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, thanks a lot, I have just returned that favour by translating your statement into German. Please use whatever form of address is common when writing Dutch on WMF projects. In the translation of your statement, I have used the "du" form, which is usually used in de discussions on "our" projects. But tell me if you want to have it changed ;) --MF-W 09:59, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the German translation! :) I think the "du" form is more common than the "Sie" form, so I've changed that in the translation of your statement. Mathonius (talk) 10:57, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

New translated sections

I'm sorry. How to add new sections more correctly - not numbered? --Kaganer (talk) 00:37, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please check and mark for translations last version of Global sysops and Closing projects policy. --Kaganer (talk) 07:55, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

For new sections, simply add new <translate </ translate> tags, the numbering is done automatically when marking for translation. The software seems to be confused if there is already a number for a new section.
Done for the two pages. --MF-W 09:38, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Requests for new languages

Hallo, ich erlaube mir auf deutsch :) Ich habe gesehen, du hast zuletzt in Bugzilla den Import der ES- und PT-Versionen von Wikitravel beantragt.

Wir warten auch ungeduldig auf den Import der PL-Sprachversion von WT -> Requests for new languages/Wikivoyage Polish.

Ich gehe davon aus, dass der Antrag bereits im Rahmen der früheren Diskussion noch in Old-Wikivoyage eine ausreichende Unterstützung erreichte -> Wikivoyage/New language versions#Polish.

Später wurde es noch indirekt durch die Teilnahme am Meinungsbild über den polnischsprachigen Projektnamen bestätigt. Deshalb gehe ich davon aus, dass es unter diesen Umständen keine weitere Diskussion zu diesem Thema in dem von mir vollständigkeitshalber angelegten Antrag erforderlich ist.

Wir haben bisher zwar gewartet bis die größeren und aktiveren Sprachversionen importiert werden, aber wie ich sehe in der letzten Zeit bewegt sich die Import-Warteschlange anscheinend gar nichts mehr vorwärts und die Community wird ungeduldig:) Deshalb wenn nichts anderes dagegen spricht, wäre es IMO die allerhöchste Zeit, den Import der o.g. Sprachversion zu beantragen und umzusetzen damit man mit dieser Sprachversion auch produktiv starten kann.

Für eventuelle weitere Fragen stehe ich gerne zur Verfügung. Grüße --Alan ffm (talk) 01:12, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ich darf vielleicht zuerst eine kleine Klarstellung machen: Ich habe die Erstellung der es- und pt-Versionen von Wikivoyage beantragt, und die entsprechenden es- und pt-Inhalt selbst dorthin importiert ;-)
In der Tat gehört die polnischsprachige Wikivoyage-Version zu denen, (wie es und pt), für die Inhalt von Wikitravel importiert werden können/sollen, und daher kann der Antrag als genehmigt angesehen werden (RNL#Wikivoyage). Ich werde dann in den nächsten Tagen in Bugzilla die Erstellung von pl.wikivoyage beantragen (die Einstellungen auf der Request-Seite sind ja bereits ausgefüllt) und nach der Erstellung den Import von Wikitravel-Seiten vornehmen. Allerdings dauert es erfahrungsgemäß immer einige Zeit, bis Bugzilla-Anträge für neue Wikierstellungen ausgeführt werden; deswegen kann sich das Ganze noch ein bisschen hinziehen. (Behelfsmäßig können aber durchaus im Incubator auch schon Artikel geschrieben werden, auch wenn es vielleicht nicht ganz so schön ist. Besonders die es'ler haben das so gemacht). --MF-W 01:23, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
OK, dann weiss ich Bescheid. Hauptsache das Thema bewegt sich vorwärts und bleibt nicht unterwegs irgendwo in der Ecke liegen :) Wie ich sehe, bei ES- und PT-WV dauerte die Bearbeitung und Umsetzung der Bugzilla-Anträge ca. 4 Wochen, dabei Weihnachten und Jahreswechsel, deshalb hoffe ich, in diesem Fall wird es auch nicht länger dauern...
Im Incubator kann man zwar was machen, aber bei 95% der Arbeit geht es in der Praxis eigentlich um größere oder auch kleinere Bearbeitungen in den bereits vorhandenen Inhalten, was im Incubator ohne Import der vorhandenen Inhalte organisatorisch eher schwierig machbar wäre.
Bei eventuellen weiteren Fragen stehe ich gerne zur Verfügung. Vielen Dank im Voraus --Alan ffm (talk) 15:17, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Re:
Tja, ich gebe zu, die Qualität hält sich in vielen Fällen in Grenzen ;)
Aber um darüber nicht lange nur zu diskutieren, würde ich vorschlagen, alles zu importieren, und dann setzen wir uns damit im Detail auseinander. Wie ich sehe, in EN-WV oder in den sonstigen bereits aktiven Sprachversionen sieht es in vielen Fällen (insb. bei entfernten ausländischen und kleineren Orten) in der Praxis auch nicht viel besser aus. Man kann es am Anfang aber auch schnell in den einfachsten Wartungsarbeiten und ohne fachliche Kompetenz mit Bilder, Karten, Ausfüllen der Infoboxen, Interwikis, Kategorien, Links zur Schwesterprojekten oder sonstigen Vorlagen und technischen Schnick-Schnacks schmücken :)
Es wäre auch am Anfang ggf. eine gute Spielwiese z.B. für Wikianfänger oder Schüler und Jugendliche, die in der (reiferen) WP ständig wegen mangelnden Sachkenntnisse gemobbt und vertrieben werden :) --Alan ffm (talk) 13:28, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, danke. --MF-W 13:34, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Our community (Ukrainian Wikivoyage) decides whether to enable some extensions and user groups on our future website. Is it possible to implement all our suggestions? --RLuts (talk) 19:00, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have commented those proposals on the page on Incubator which could be problematic. Those on which I did not comment can all be implemented. Cheers --MF-W 00:14, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You!

Hi Mr. MF-Warburg, I love wikipedia Minangkabau finally realized! Thanks to the Lang Camp. Now how to apply sysop privileges to that new wiki? Maybe just a temporally sysop to fix and contribute for preparation of that wiki. I'm a native speaker for Minangkabau. Can you help me, Sir?  Ę-oиė  >>> 09:27, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You can either request temporary adminship on the Steward requests/Permissions, or you can elect admins on the new wiki and then request normal adminship on the same page, with a link to the local election. --MF-W 14:02, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oke, Sir. I will try your first suggestion, than I will talk to community on wp-min for admins election. Thank's for your help.  Ę-oиė  >>> 14:09, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bofonian

Bofonisk. I suspected it may have been a proposal for the language w:Bolon language (ISO 639-3 "bof") or the "Bofon" language (also known as w:Abanyom language). πr2 (tc) 22:32, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bof, c'est archi-nul... So it could either be a misspelled Bolon/bof or Abanyom/Bofon/abm, ok. Would you think it's worth restoring the deleted page and merging the Bofonisk stuff (as it was both from the same IP on the same day, it would be improbably that the 2 pages were indeed meant for one of the two languages in question each) to put up a question asking for clarification etc.? --MF-W 22:45, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know. The IP isn't even from the right continent for either one of those to make sense. Bof, le bofonien ! Also, can you find anything about Requests for new languages/Wikipedia Varello? πr2 (tc) 22:48, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Self-created languages about which the proposer himself says that you can't find anything about it certainly do not have the sufficient degree of recognition which the policy would require. I'll add a note to say that. --MF-W 23:51, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Small Wiki Monitoring

Servus MF-Warburg, zufällig fiel mir auf, dass auf cbk-zam.wikipedia.org hunderte (!), 1-Satz-Artikel in den letzen Tagen automatisch generiert wurden. So etwas kann doch nicht der Sinn einer Enzyklopädie sein. Macht es da Sinn, dass da jemand vom "globalen Team" eingreift?

one sentence article spamming:

--Bua333 (talk) 19:56, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So'ne Sache ist in der Tat eher suboptimal... anscheinend greift der Spaß mit den automatisch erstellten Massenartikeln in letzter Zeit wieder um sich. Rein theoretisch könnte ich oder jemand anderes natürlich alle von dem Benutzer erstellten Artikel löschen, aber das ganze ist Sache der lokalen Community (falls vorhanden). Ich sehe, dass der Benutzer sich erst vor 2 Wochen angemeldet hat, und kann auch keine Diskussion erkennen, dass er mal nachgefragt hat, ob solche Artikel denn überhaupt erwünscht sind. Von daher würde ich empfehlen, mal einen der Admins dort zu fragen, was er von der Sache hält. --MF-W 21:58, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Klar, das verstehe ich schon. Deshalb habe ich mir das auch angesehen. Eine lokale Community ist doch da gar nicht mehr vorhanden, ein einziger Admin, der noch sporadisch vorbeischaut. Ich denke, dass da ein global sysop eingreifen muss, aber ich habe dem Admin jetzt noch eine Nachricht auf seiner Disk hinterlassen see here und warte jetzt mal 2 Wochen ab.
Inzwischen sind es ja schon mehr als 1.000 automatisch generierte Artikel, die müsste man auch automatisch löschen, sonst würde man da ja stundenlang nichts anderes tun als löschen. --Bua333 (talk) 08:05, 12 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, ich werde die Disk. auch beobachten. — Einer Massenlöschung würde ich dank Special:Nuke und delete.py gelassen entgegensehen ;-) --MF-W 17:22, 12 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Kurzer Nachtrag. Ich habe es mir nochmals genauer angesehen. Es ist noch viel schlimmer als ich zunächst gedacht hatte. Von den zur Zeit 8.000 Artikeln dieser Wikipedia sind rund 6.500 (!) bot-generierte 1-Satz-Artikel von User:Impulso. Gestern sind nochmals 200 dazu gekommen. Ein Admin der spanischen Wikipedia hat sich auf der Disk vom Lokaladmin Jondel auch schon beklagt. --Bua333 (talk) 12:19, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
...und er macht fröhlich weiter. Ich habe ihn mal noch auf Spanisch angeschrieben, wenn da nichts kommt, werde ich ihn sperren und fröhlich feudeln. --MF-W 22:18, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Polish Wikivoyage import

Hi,

Thanks a lot for the import from the Polish Wikivoyage community. Generally it has been going smoothly and well-paced.

However I noted that some entries (JAMguides) beginning with letter B and probably all entries beginning with C have been omitted from the import so far.

At least for the time being I suppose. I just want to let you know in any case.

Please, imported entries like Berlin are really indispensable for WV-PL ;-)

Best regards,
Kpjas (talk) 16:17, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I know that these are still missing, I hope to be able to import them later today along with the last part of the alphabet :) --MF-W 16:20, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Just noting here as well, for the record, that the import finished yesterday. --MF-W 21:56, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wunderbar!

I think the page can now be translated properly, although I'm still not happy we had to use noinclude tags (it looks messy in the translation window) and this was also a minor problem. Do you know how we could update/re-organize Special:LanguageStats? The requests for the old page don't need to be visible there anymore, and it'd be great if the new requests were somehow grouped together. Anyway, thank you very much for all your help tonight! Much appreciated! :) Mathonius (talk) 02:22, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've translated WikiWomen's Collaborative/About into Dutch, but the translated version isn't visible on the main project page. I'm not sure how to fix this. Mathonius (talk) 03:14, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You can use Special:AggregateGroups to create a group with all the WWC-related pages; and you can remove old pages from translation via Special:PageTranslation. – I have now simply integrated the content of the /About page (as well as the /Volunteer page) into the main page (and copied over your translation), as for these especially I don't see a reason to have a subpage. In general, the problem with templates and the Translate extension is the following: if the original subpage/template is used in the source text, always the original will be shown also for translations, because there is no < translate > tag that tells the software that it needs to change something. You can see an example on LPP: The box with Language Committee links comes from the {{lc-navigation}} template, which has some translations (as subpages). Therefore, the code on the page is {{lc-navigation/< translate ><!--T:38-->en</ translate>}}; so e.g. in German the section 38 will be translated as "de" and {{lc-navigation/de}} gets shown for the German version of the page. Obviously, this requires a translated page to exist, which you cannot always rely on (which is why there is a note to translators in the docs, but see Language_proposal_policy/sv for a case where that was ignored. --MF-W 02:41, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unit markers

MF-Warburg> Nemo_bis: is it a new feature that translation unit numbers cannot be changed anymore? ^^

After bugzilla:44329 I think Nikerabbit has changed the validation of unit markers, but nothing you were supposed to do has changed (or should have changed): see mw:Help:Extension:Translate/Page_translation_administration for what's supported; what did you try to do? --Nemo 07:45, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I was marking a revision for translating that included a new section, and it was impossible to change the proposed number. It's not that I wanted to use that feature (I think I used it once or twice to call a message "3a" or so), just wondering why it was removed. --MF-W 23:53, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hi. Regarding Template:Policy. Will things become easier if I make the code dependant from {{ombox}} such I did on {{looks useless}} for example? Best regards. -- MarcoAurelio (talk) 19:18, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, because it doesn't matter if the text is in an ombox or not surround by anything at all. The < translate > tags will still show up when transcluding, unfortunately. That's why there is the /en subpage, cf. mw:Help:Extension:Translate/Page_translation_administration: "Source language. There is also a translation page with the language code of the source language: it doesn't contain the extra tags and other markup related to page translation which are used in the translatable page source. This page is not linked from the interface, but it is handy for example when you want to transclude the page (typically for translatable templates) or export it." --MF-W 01:40, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Punjabi Wiktionary

  • Thank you Warburg for your kind words and these questions.
  1. The activity is being done in a better way, it seems now we are in a real world. But I think that Incubator stage is also necessary. That is a great opportunity to learn and test. Experimentaion is still going on but on higher level. On the whole we feel confident.
  2. To be very frank we were working on two projects simultaneously: Wikiquote and Wikitionary. And in our views WIkiquote was in better position to be normalised as that was in better shape, well Wikitionary project was normalised, we have to do a lot to make it better, thought a lot what to present on front page, and what we can do to make it the best dictionary of our langauge, we added pictures sometime other things that we could do. Well I have introduced it on facebook to friends and to all those I think are interested in such works, in media I will introduce it after we have completed 10,000 words and I think that we will do before the end of this year.
  3. Upto some extent yes. Not many new writers came but it is not wikipedia where everyone can write. Wiktionary, I think is a sensitive work and cannot be expected to be done in a way Wikiedia is written. I am satisfied. In 2010 I went to Punjab University Lahore, a prestigious learning center in South Asia, and told about this Wiktionary Project and there the most senior professor told me that a dcitionary cannot be made in this way that every Tom, Dick and Harry writing in it, a special board of senior professors can make such task and they refused me as who will do the funding. Well it is a sheer pleasure to see this form. It is a joy to see what was thought impossible.
  4. At present I am satisfied as my energies and time are spent on long articles in Wikipedia and Wikiquote. If our Wikiquote is normalised, that will be huge relief for us. We will put before public our Wikiquote for criticism and feed back and work more on Wiktionary.
  5. I think Incubator phase was a good period and every new project should go through that phase.
  6. There is a suggestion from my side. There should be a team which should help new projects in technical affairs even when the projects are out of incubators.
  7. Well, I cant forget that missionary helper User: Jose 77. He helped us a lot during our Wikiedia project.
  8. Please see, our Wiktionary is standing after one year on 75th positon in 170 wiktionaries[2] and [3] and on 103rd positon in readership and I think it is a satisfactory situation, but I request you see us again on these scales at the end of the year, we will be on better positions. There is one request we are still not enlisted in this ist: [4]

Chechen Wikipedia

Hello. Separatists came back. First of all, they blocked with no reason Dagirov Umar. Then, they deleted the request for adminship of Umar. I revert this edit, but, you understand that I have no rights there and they can block me in any moment even if I just reverting the obvious vandalism. Also, see the discussion in Steward requests/Miscellaneous.--Soul Train (talk) 08:06, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Script for lad and sh

Could you address the doubt on lad and sh at commons:User_talk:Nemo_bis/Wikipedia please? Thanks, Nemo 08:41, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid I don't know what to do there. Since both wikis' languages can be written in more than one script, and it seems that both wikis allow the use of two scripts, it would seem the best to me to also keep both in the new logo; if that's entirely impossible, then probably Latin is preferable as the majority of the editing happens in Latin script. Maybe ask locally? (By the way, while you're here: Is the change proposed on tet:Diskusaun Imajen:Wiki.png simply the one which happened on File:Wikipedia-logo-v2-tet.png with the revision of 9 March 2013?) --MF-W 14:59, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, if both are allowed we'll use Latin and ask. Yes, that's the change; the local logo seems of slightly lower quality, although maybe it's not really incorrect (unlike the previous version on Commons).
wmf:Wikimedia_official_marks/Word_mark_creation doesn't allow duplicate names, although it doesn't clearly forbid them and a couple wikis have logos with a lot of stuff in them; maybe LangCom should suggest adding this case, if it's needed. --Nemo 09:25, 16 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I changed the logo on tet.wiki. Please check if that was correct. – I don't really see anything related to scripts in the word mark creation page, but if you think that'd be useful to clarify, I can bring it up in Langcom :) --MF-W 01:27, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hallo, Warburg. I would like to ask about de-adminship. We have a discussion about one of our admin because of his abuse of adminship. We discussed and we voted in our community.(here) It will be ended tonight at 22:00. Is it enough to tell you or we should make a new request in meta-wiki? Thanks in advance.Gomada (talk) 20:03, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, please make such a request on SRP. --MF-W 20:05, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Alles klar, danke schön. Wir haben keine(n) aktive(n) Bürokrat(in). Deswegen wollte ich fragen. Schönen Abend.Gomada (talk) 20:17, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, MF-Warburg. users like User:Gomada, User:Xosere try to take possession of Zazaki Wikipedia and to kurdificate it by forcing User:Mirzali out. I couldn't find serious abuse of adminship of Mirzali. User:Mirzali is the only administrator who learned policies of project. If their attempt is accepted, the project will became a lawless area and collapse. Thank you. Takabeg (talk) 23:23, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
@Takabeg;Respect to decision of community please. We discussed that enough. We even discussed in English because you dont speak Zazaki. User:Xosere is other admin. If you still say, there is no serious abuse, that means you are againist policies of Wikimedia projects. Even today, User:Mirzali insulted me and admin Xosere.(here, you speak turkish maybe you translate for Warburg) Mirzali tried to block new user without any reason. Mirzali calls user, racist and ignorant. He attacks admin and calls him idiot, traitor, despot, grandchild of Yezit, he insulted another user as well. He tells users to leave the project. Isnt it enough abuse? What more abuse do you want? The community of Zazaki wikipedia told you many times, you dont speak our language but you try to decide for us without understanding. You didnt even say anything when Mirzali abused his adminship and you still support this abuse. We dont want to waste time with non-sense discussion anymore. We want to develop our project. Sorry Warburg for disturbing, but we are quite bored of this attitude.Gomada (talk) 00:42, 16 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi you undid my edit on [7] well th edit I did improved it and added more projects 109.144.223.178 21:41, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

In your revert comment, you say "reverted edit because I only added some newprpjects it haven't been updated since 2011". Yes, Wikivoyage and Wikidata are new projects, but Wikiversity existed before 2011. It might be that the contributors chose not to include it because it doesn't have a Croatian version. Also you added MediaWiki.org, which also existed before 2011, but is typically not listed in such sister project templates. And of course you removed the Croatian text for Meta and Commons and replaced it by English. --MF-W 03:13, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
yes but I also changed some links in them to link to the write languge for it 86.159.27.221 07:43, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

About blockade

Hi MF-Warburg. I've seen that you have blockaded 83.56.141.104 and 83.56.140.121 IP addresses for cross-wiki spam. Unfortunately, I access to Internet through these IP (among others). Hence, I've found myself blockaded three times in a week. I do'nt know about effectivity of IP blockade and if that served to finish with spam (I doubt about it) but to me this starts to be a big problem. Best wishes. --Fugi-bis (talk) 22:25, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It was part of a rangeblock on 83.56.128.0/19, from where I had found a lot of spam. It turns out that that was a too broad range, so I have removed that block now. --MF-W 22:59, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I know I've used google tranlator to translate it but I have ask the sl.wikipedia.org to advertise the test wiki sl Wikinews I only used google tranlator it improved the age I've change the background I've changed the colour of the man header and if the people from sl.wikipedia.org change it I will not change it I copied the desgn from en.wikinews.org but I changed a few things in it so please could you bring back the desgn I added to it 86.159.27.221 21:40, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
but also the change by adding sister project links to the en projects not the sl projects and the main header is the change I did to it 86.159.27.221 21:42, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi I carnt help that my IP address changes sometime because I am using the British service of bt wifi which the IP address changes every time you have to log in and. Sometime I use open proxy which is a vpn because I doint use open proxies it has an IP address for open proxy but sorry the disruption but I am only updating the template to the new one on here and I have stop editing in other languages only English on here I edit the template in other on incubator to get them started I edit them but I have stopped editing wikipedia in other languages 217.39.7.253 19:57, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to divert your attention to SN#What to do with Google9999?. A lot of users are fed up by your mostly unneeded changes. And no, there is no need to "edit the template in other on incubator to get them started" when you don't speak the languages in question and nobody else is there who would like to see it started. --MF-W 20:03, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
if someone was ask for a project to be I think we should advertise to get some people involved in doing it I won't edit anymore incubator projects I will leave it to the people who speak it but if it ok I would like incubator:Wn/nl/Hoofdpagina to be restarted because it has more news article the it has on nl.wikinews.org domain I won't edit that much nor will I edit in other languages on here but can I update template from old to new because I doint have to speak the language all you do is add the name go to the wikipedia and find the information to fill in on the meta request for languages I know it's unessorcary but I would like to update them because it makes it easer for people to read it includes more information and I won't edit that lot I will edit only a little but not as much as I have been doing 109.144.211.155 20:31, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
hi could you approve incubator:Wn/nl/Hoofdpagina because it has some active co unity it Isent as daily as the English Wikinews but it is daily it was last active in February so please unlock [8] 109.144.211.155 20:45, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
There's hardly any activity (excluding your edits). There wasn't even an article about Pope Francis. I'd also expect the news about Queen Beatrix stepping down on the Dutch Wikinews, even if that was a while ago... πr2 (t • c) 21:04, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I know there is alot of content but there is more then what used to be on there before they closed the nl.wikinews.org link 109.144.211.155 21:08, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
there may be not alot of more content or have the really latest news but It has some news and I have found the user who recently edited and ask fro him to create Pope Francis being elected and Queen Beatrix stepping down and he speaks Dutch 109.144.211.155 21:17, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
the reason why it was locked and put into incubator is because there was 1 item added not alot of news and not the latest news but there have been some more news and I would like to ask could we give it another hcnace to see if anyone will edit it at nl.wikinews.org we could advertise for a comunity to edit nl.wikinews.org and see if more people get involved in editing it and becoming more daily news so please approve it 109.144.211.155 21:20, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

hi please could change the status on Requests for new languages/Wikinews Dutch to eligible approved or not approved please 109.144.248.161 08:51, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
First of all, please start using punctuation and capitalization. All your comments are extremely hard to read and understand. You say your native language is English, care to write correctly in it? Now, let me respond to some of the things you say:
  1. Wikinews Dutch. I think it was a bad idea to close the project in the first place, because it only created unnecessary work in importing to Incubator. Nevertheless, the closure was understandable because of the inactivity. However now, in order to reopen the project the same activity standards as for all other new projects apply. If there are not ca. 3 regular contributors for some months, it can't be reopened. And no, your different IPs do not count towards different users.
  2. I have now marked the request as eligible, since I have a feeling that you won't stop annoying me about it otherwise. In such clear cases, the eligibility marking is really the most boring and least urgent part of a request.
  3. You say "I only editing in my native language which is English". In the very same sentence you go on to say that you edit nl, sl and af.wn on Incubator. Either you want to fool me, or you want to admit that you edit these projects without knowing their language. It is not necessary to do so, as I said numerous times! Doing it won't help the approval of nl, sl or af.wn to become own subdomains. Period. There is so much useful stuff you can do on Wikimedia projects. Fixing non-broken templates, putting Google Translate texts somewhere or copy-pasting templates into inactive Incubator tests etc. pp. ad nauseam is far away from that. --MF-W 10:55, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
ok I am only editing them because it will help someone who speaks the languge to create it and I know they won't be improved but in some time could we ask the af sl and nl wikipedia to contribute to these projects if we advertise there they will probly be able to create the main page as they want it and the languge they speak 217.39.14.110 10:59, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I doint want to fool you I am only going to edit the nl Wikinews on incubator and af Wikinews and sl Wikinews and then once some one starts editing I will stop editing them and will only edit in my native languge which is English 217.39.14.110 11:02, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid you don't understand me at all. --MF-W 11:10, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I do understand you abut by understanding do you mean you doint want me to edit nl af and sl Wikinews on incubator but could I edit one of them like nl or af Wikinews 109.151.163.1 11:44, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Même chose pour moi : je contribue sur fr.wikipedia depuis 2005, je ne comprends donc pas que je ne puisse plus contribuer depuis ce matin pour le meme motif, jusqu'au 28 avril également, et meme en étant connecté sous mon compte... Je compte sur vous pour résoudre le problème aujourd'hui sinon on va faire clair, je fais un scandale auprès de Wikimedia.--Strologoff (talk) 14:59, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Vous étaiez dans un bloc d'adresses IP dans lequel j'avais trouvé un grand nombre de spammeurs. Alors il s'avére qu'il y a aussi des utilisateurs réelles - je suis désolé et j'ai debloqué les IPs. --MF-W 15:13, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please Verify

Would you please go through my edits that I have made today? as I am planning more of these in recent days. You are free point out regions where translation needed is important or urgent. You won't be able to understand or check the translation I have made but you can surly point out if something else is wrong with those edits? Thanks for you time in advance.--Vyom25 (talk) 15:07, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I went through the edits and there don't seem to be any problems from what I am able to tell. You might just want to change the link in Translations:Wikidata/11/gu. You can see the full list of translatable pages and their current level of translation on Special:LanguageStats/gu; and you can register to be notified if there is an urgent request for your language here.

Pengguna and Pangguno

Hi MF-Warburg. Do you still remember me from Minangkabau Wikipedia? :D There is a discussion among the contributors that the User namespace in our wiki is not quite right. The User namespace should be renamed to Pangguno instead of Pengguna, which is an Indonesian word. Can you fix it? Thank you. SpartacksCompatriot (talk) 13:46, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Of course I remember you ;) If I go to the page, it seems like someone already updated the namespace name? --MF-W 15:34, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
But it doesn't change. Why? SpartacksCompatriot (talk) 22:51, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, see translatewiki:Translating:Process#Getting_things_into_Wikimedia,_other_MediaWikis,_and_other_products. >> Translations through Special:AdvancedTranslate can take a few weeks. If it's really important to you, it may be wise to request a commit on translatewiki:Support. << --MF-W 23:11, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
