Text wrapping issue for user's babel information[edit]
Hello. I've just discovered my babel information have one text "zh-N" wrapped on screen, which is generated by {{#babel}} tag (see my screenshot), is there any way to fix that? As my suggestion, you need to replace general hyphen-minus by no-break hyphen in there. Thanks. -- Great Brightstar (talk) 08:39, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
User group icons[edit]
Hello, I have made some icons for user groups on Meta-Wiki which do not appear to currently have user icons. However there was some pushback on adding them directly to the pages by @Tacsipacsi and @User:FooBarBaz so I am asking here if these are a good addition. The following are the user groups and the icons which I made.
- Meta:Autoconfirmed users — File:Meta-Wiki Autoconfirmed Icon.svg
- Meta:Bots — File:Meta-Wiki Bot Icon.svg
Meta:CheckUsers — File:Meta-Wiki Checkuser Icon.svgMeta:Confirmed users — File:Meta-Wiki Confirmed Icon.svg- Meta:Flood flag — File:Meta-Wiki Flooder Icon.svg
- Meta:Interface administrators — File:Meta-Wiki Interface Administrator Icon.svg
- Meta:MassMessage senders — File:Meta-Wiki MassMessage Sender Icon.svg
- Meta:Patrollers — File:Meta-Wiki Patroller Icon.svg
- Meta:Translation administrators — File:Meta-Wiki Translation Administrator Icon.svg
Should some or all of these be added as standard icons to the pages? Terasail[✉️] 15:01, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Terasail: The only image I'm supporting is the flooder icon, since there isn't one for the right. The other ones either don't usually represent the user right or are too cartoony. FooBarBaz (talk) 15:08, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
- Flooder is always a temp group. But some of these look like uneeded replacements? For example we already have File:Meta_Checkuser.svg in use via the babel box, why fork that? — xaosflux Talk 15:30, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
- I just checked the main user group pages, I didn't check for each individual icon since I did a set, and have then gone through each wiki and just created a set for them so that there is a complete set where every icon matches see c:Wikimedia user group icons. So there may be some crossover, I wasn't intending to override already standing icons here. Terasail[✉️] 15:39, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
- I see no reason for adding these icons to the linked Meta project pages. --MF-W 15:43, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
Review the Charter for the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee[edit]
Hello all,
I am pleased to share the next step in the Universal Code of Conduct work. The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) draft charter is now ready for your review.
The Enforcement Guidelines require a Building Committee form to draft a charter that outlines procedures and details for a global committee to be called the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C). Over the past few months, the U4C Building Committee worked together as a group to discuss and draft the U4C charter. The U4C Building Committee welcomes feedback about the draft charter now through 22 September 2023. After that date, the U4C Building Committee will revise the charter as needed and a community vote will open shortly afterward.
Join the conversation during the conversation hours or on Meta-wiki.
Best,
RamzyM (WMF), on behalf of the U4C Building Committee, 15:34, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
Sharing the link to the Mental Health Resource Center[edit]
Hey there! I work in the Community Resilience & Sustainability team of the Wikimedia Foundation. I am writing to you today to let you know about the Mental Health Resource Center in case you find this resource useful. This is a new group of pages on Meta-wiki aimed at supporting the mental wellbeing of users in our community. This project is the result of the work of a Human Rights intern at the Wikimedia Foundation, who wrote a Diff blog post about it.
While we previously provided helpline contact information for people who are in an active crisis or near-crisis, the team’s goal is to provide additional resources to offer mental health and wellbeing information in a number of languages, covering a wide range of topics. Our hope is not only to help people who are in crisis, but help prevent crises.
As with the Helpline information page, the Foundation’s Trust and Safety team is tasked with maintaining the pages. They will do a quarterly review of the content, which will include reviewing any recommended changes left on the talk page. Because this is a page they send to people who are in crisis, for liability reasons they do have to review substantial changes. However, they very much hope for recommendations and ideas and especially notes of problems.
The Resource Center contains the helplines, a glossary of mental health terms, and resources divided by category with supported languages listed next to each resource. There is also a table available if community members wish to view the resources sorted by language. The hope is this resource expands over time to cover more languages and cultures. Currently, translations into several languages are underway. Best, JKoerner (WMF) (talk) 17:33, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
