The banner looks good to me. A little unfortunate that it is too long so that the main text cannot be fit in one sentence, but it looks like that will have to be necessary. 0xDeadbeef (talk) 11:00, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Central Notice admin comments

@Xeno (WMF) and Keegan (WMF): I'm a bit confused by this request. Do you want us volunteer CN admins to create this for you? According to the CN guidelines, WMF and affiliate should be created by their staff and the volunteer CNA's just check that and enable the campaign. — However, the proposed settings are not so difficult so that I could help with the creation if need be. However, some remarks:
- Please note that Catalan communities have opted out from campaigns a) that are not translated into the local language, b) that are not announced on their local wiki.
- The proposed landing page looks very unclear to me. Are you sure that this is the right one? I cannot easily identify a call-to-action. I don't really know what you want me to do and why. At first, I thought that you were requesting a campaign for voting on the new changes (see “Metrics: voter turnout”).
- If the latter is true, a better targeting could make sense (minimum number of edits, etc.). But also for a call for feedback a minimum level of knowledge about our communities might make sense instead of inviting every newly registered account to give feedback on such a complex change.
Please get some more information handy, the campaign is scheduled to start in a week! (And I will be travelling most of the time, just saying.) Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:01, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks DerHexer, your kind assistance would be really appreciated (I'm afraid I'm not entirely clear on the process to create the banner itself! I will work to learn for next time...).
  - this page Universal Code of Conduct/Annual review/2025/Voter information wasn't created at the time I submitted the request, but it is now. It will be updated also, before the vote - I think this is a better landing page.
    - It probably makes sense to set the diet to the users that would more likely meet the eligibility requirements, such as at least 300 edits.
- And it's fine if this doesn't launch right away, due to the short timing window and your communicated capacity - we appreciate your help! Xeno (WMF) (talk) 16:27, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- @DerHexer: we should be good to launch, please let us know if there are further questions. The reason this was brought to the volunteer CN request is because this is on behalf of the U4C who are running this election, it's a volunteer project that we're helping facilitate and not a Foundation initiative. I hope that helps clarify the forum question. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 17:18, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Keegan (WMF) and Xeno (WMF): I have created the campaign and banner (preview). I have adjusted the banner to make translations easier and set up the 300 local edits threshold. Please help with spreading the word about translations of the banner and landing page. The former I will check regularly so that banner translations will be quickly approved. Please check everything, approve it and ping me so that I can activate the campaign. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:34, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks, @DerHexer: translators have been notified about the banner, we're ready for the campaign to begin. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 15:29, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  I have enabled the campaign. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 18:16, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Keegan (WMF) and Xeno (WMF): Thanks to Jon Harald Søby I could add a fix to your standard template which caused problems in dark mode and caused some complaints (and it's not compliant with the usage guidelines either). In the future, please only use a copy of this banner and not older versions. :) Best,
- Thanks for your help here DerHexer - we are already seeing great impact! Xeno (WMF) (talk) 17:08, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
