[edit]- @Richard Sekerak (WMCZ): Do I assume right that you are requesting it for July and not June as said above? Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 10:19, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer: My bad. Sure I request for July . Richard Sekerak (WMCZ) (talk) 09:14, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer is everything else correct? Richard Sekerak (WMCZ) (talk) 14:01, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Richard Sekerak (WMCZ): A landscape image in a banner doesn't work well in mobile display. Please open this link with your mobile phone. I recommend only to use one logo or (at max) two upright versions. I've created the campaign and banner but cannot enable it like that. Maybe you can ask the people who helped you with the Czech Wiki Photo banner, that one also worked well on mobile. The standard banner we have to use to create banners (we cannot use wiki markup as in WPWP Czechia 2024 banner but have to use HTML) has limitations. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 19:27, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer my bad, I didn't know (never realised) all banners must use HTML. I've just updated my WPWP banner - used Human_Rights_on_Wikipedia_2024 banner, replaced images, adjusted size and changed color - Is it ok this way? Richard Sekerak (WMCZ) (talk) 20:54, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Richard Sekerak (WMCZ): Thanks for working on a fix! Take a look again at the preview: The title is hidden by the banner in the mobile version, and there is a lot of white space in the desktop display. Can you get that corrected? I tried to arrange
margin-bottom: 150px;
myself but couldn't find an acceptable solution. Thanks and best, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:08, 4 July 2024 (UTC)- @DerHexer I tried to fix the underspace problem - try my WPWP Czechia 2024 banner. In case that design still doesn't work well, please use this simple WPWP banner - because the banner is already five days late. Richard Sekerak (WMCZ) (talk) 12:40, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Richard Sekerak (WMCZ): Sadly, the same problem. I've used the simple version and enabled the campaign. Sorry for the problems. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 13:07, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

- @Richard Sekerak (WMCZ): Yes, I did so. Please keep in mind that I only get a ping when you also sign your message. I just saw this by chance. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 11:47, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

What banner(s) will you use? What will be your landing page?
[edit]The overall design could mirror that of the Mais Povos originários banner, which looked great! There are just a few changes:
Instead of the logo, we'd like to use an image of the wikicontest's prizes, which you can find here. Do you think it's possible? Additionally, the background color should be changed to #8153D6.
Text1: Participe do Concurso de Edição Mais Diversidade em Teoria da História na Wiki, entre os dias 11 de outubro e 11 de novembro de 2024, e contribua para visibilizar conhecimentos dissidentes. Font: Open Sans Light, size 24, black.
Text2: Inscreva-se aqui. Font: Open Sans Light, size 29, white. For the box, the color is #5ED5ED.
As you probably noticed, the instructions are pretty similar to the Mais Mulheres' banner, just different background colors, image and text. Maybe using that one as reference when it's done would make the work easier! Again, thanks a lot for the help! If you have any doubts, please contact me.

[edit]See CentralNotice/Request/Mais Mulheres em Teoria da História na Wiki/2024#Discussion, the requested font size / amount of text / image size is likely too large for this request as well. --Johannnes89 (talk) 14:44, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hello, @Johannnes89:. Can we shorten the main sentence to “Participe do Concurso de Edição Mais Diversidade em Teoria da História na Wiki e contribua para visibilizar conhecimentos dissidentes.” What do you think? I'd like to point out that we're also going to include a MetaWiki landing page in this banner, but we haven't created the page yet. I'll post it here soon. Thanks in advance. Danielly Figueredo (Projeto Mais+) (talk) 18:15, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Danielly Figueredo (Projeto Mais+): yes of course we can change the landing page link at a later point. I've created the campaign [1] and the preliminary banner [2] (Preview [3]). Please review everything to make sure it's alright. Looking at the mobile version [4] on a smartphone I think this banner should use less text. --Johannnes89 (talk) 06:25, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

[edit]- @EPorto (WMB): Thank you for the good preparation! I've created the campaign and banner (preview). I'm ready to enable the campaign as soon as you approve it (please ping me). The banner looked pretty big on my mobile test (partly because of some empty space under the logo); you may want to check that, but it's good enough to be enabled, of course. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 11:58, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer: Hello, thank you for your points and quick actions! I agree about the size: I updated the code to reduce a little the gaps and font-size, so you can pull this new version (the same link) and enable the banner. Thank you so much! Cheers, EPorto (WMB) (talk) 22:07, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

[edit]@MdsShakil I've created the campaign [5] and the banner [6] (preview [7]). Please note that per CentralNotice/Usage guidelines#Campaign implementation banners should be translated for all languages you want them to be displayed. I made an exemption and included English per your request, because the Geolocation basically ensures that registered users seeing the banner most likely speak Bengali.
Please check if the campaign/banner settings are alright, allowing me to enable the campaign. --Johannnes89 (talk) 10:54, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

What banner(s) will you use? What will be your landing page?
[edit]Landing Page - The banner will link to different language versions of the survey and a privacy statement wiki page, which will provide information on data handling and the background of the survey questions. Both the survey and the wiki page are in progress, and the links will be added later.

[edit]Can someone describe what categories or levels of demographics will be collected in the survey, if any? (Country, Job Role, etc.) or maybe better yet, provide the privacy page link now that describes what demographics are being proposed to collect? --Thadguidry (talk) 15:25, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for your feedback @Thadguidry. The privacy statement page text, which includes background information about the questions, is currently under review. We will publish it soon at Wikidata:Usability and usefulness/2024-Community-Survey and send a notification to the Wikidata mailing list.
- In the meantime, I can share that we plan to ask for the following information: country, native language/language most fluent in, age group (in 10-year increments), gender identity, employment status, and highest level of formal education completed.
- All questions, including demographic ones, are optional, and the survey is anonymous by default. Results will only be published in aggregated form.

[edit]- @Pyb, Luc Hervier WMFr, and VIGNERON: I've created the campaign and banner (preview). I'm a little bit confused by the long campaign duration; usually we only approve campaigns for two to four weeks. In the banner text, I can also read about the contest time between 15 August and 27 September—why is it necessary to start the campaign on 1 July? I've reduced the diet to 5 displays every two weeks at max. Please clarify, take a look at everything and ping me for activation. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 09:48, 9 May 2024 (UTC) PS: Nice to see that you my massmail system was mentioned in one of the PDFs. There is another new tool available now, maybe take a look at this one too.
- @DerHexer: yes, the campaign for the banner is long because the contest is long. We also would like to let people know in advance ; especially as with summer vacation the traffic is a bit lower and also to give the opportunity for people to take pictures in advance (some events that are in the scope of the contest happens only during summer).
- Displaying it less often could be a solution, maybe we can also start a bit later (July 15 for instance ?) and ends a bit earlier (20 September) and increase a bit the diet?
- Feel free to ask all the questions you need. Cheers, VIGNERON * discut. 10:39, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with DerHexer that such a long campaign period is not ideal – especially as the campaign targets both logged in users and readers (who cannot opt out of banners). Running it with a reduced diet might be ok though. Note that per CentralNotice/Usage guidelines#Campaign implementation long campaigns usually require community consensus. Johannnes89 (talk) 11:02, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- @VIGNERON: I've changed the duration accordingly. Are you okay with the white background? I had to change it because the white background of the logo didn't look good on the general grey background of the banner. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 16:31, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer: perfect, thanks! Cheers, VIGNERON * discut. 13:29, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Hi @RamzyM (WMF), I've created the campaign and banner for you in time to do all the needed translations. Looking at the banner, you may want to spice up the language a bit? You only get one shot to grab people's attention for the message you want to share... :)) For reference, this was the previous one. Ciell (talk) 18:10, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Many thanks, Ciell! We'll stick to the wording for now to make translation easier, but I will let you know if that changes :) RamzyM (WMF) (talk) 10:49, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/47/Logo-wiki-loves-sport-testo.svg/150px-Logo-wiki-loves-sport-testo.svg.png)
The sixth edition of Wiki Loves Sport (July 17th - September 22th) is organized to improve and extend content related to diversity in sport in the Wikimedia projects, and for this year event it covers in particular:
- Euro Games Vienna (from 17 to 20 July).
- Paris 2024 Olympic games (from 26 July to 11 August).
- Paris 2024 Paralympic games (from 28 August to 8 September) and other.
Given the gaps which is our topic of interest, the campaign is mainly focused on content concerning missing or underrepresented groups in sport (so a special focus on women's sport, LGBTQIA+ communities, para athletics, indigeneous and minorities etc), but as Wikimedians, we appreciate any sports-related content in any language you want to add.
Seeing the affiliate's goal of increasing the diversity, whoever writes +5 articles about female & non-binary athletes and/or binary & non-binary para-athletes, will receive a barnstar and a digital certificate from the main organizer WikiDonne.

[edit]- @Camelia.boban: This request has some flaws:
- Usually, a variation of the standard banner is preferable. See this how-to how to request it. We cannot make good use of full banner GIFs because they either look too small on the desktop or too big for mobile. It's technically much trickier to use different language files instead of texts. I tried my best to find an acceptable version.
- The SVGs have white borders which can be seen on the same-colored background.
- I don't understand the purpose of the slogans. Do you want to add them somewhere to the SVGs? Why are they not part of the file? Do you have a mockup how it should look like? I didn't include them right now.
- Usually, we ask notifications to local village pumps that a campaign will take place. However, since this project seems to be established, this isn't necessary anymore.
- Why is tt (tatar) requested as target language? I didn't include this one because there was no information about it.
- I have created the campaign and banner. Please check the preview (English, Italian) and let me know about it. It would really be helpful to fix the borders of the versions before we enable the campaign. I assume that other variations of the banner will not be available in time. Please ping me how to proceed and when you approve it. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:48, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @DerHexer, it is very important to have the banner in French too, as three/four affiliates which signed for participation have this language as the official one. About the purpose of the slogan: it was for having a kinda call to action outside the banner static image that can be translated in different languages. It is hard to do this variation the day before the campaign starts, I will try to do my best at least to remove the banner's white border. Thank you, Camelia (talk) 08:40, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Camelia.boban: The banners were also created for French and Serbian as requested. Apologies that this wasn't clear when I was giving the examples in English and Italian. Looking forward to the removal of the white borders. I don't think that I will find a good place myself where to put the slogan. I neither fits under the image nor at its side (not working on mobile). Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 08:49, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hello @DerHexer! tt is meant to be shown in Tatar Wikipedia. I can help with localization now (Вики спортны ярата 2024 / 17 июль - 22 сентябрь). Global landing page is translatable, so please link it to Wiki Loves Sport 2024/tt - I will start translating now and our local organizer will complete it later whenever the banner's up. FYI only: Traditionally, we've been using Sitenotice link to our multi-year page @ tt:Википедия:Бәйгеләр/Вики спортны ярата. Regards, Frhdkazan (talk) 14:04, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Frhdkazan: I know ttwiki. ;) However, neither a country where it would be displayed was requested as target, as far as I can see, nor an SVG for the banner was created. Your translation of the banner text is helpful but has to be copied to a new version of the SVG (I'm not an expert in this). Then I can arrange the banner also to show up in ttwiki. Thanks as well for the translation of the landing page! Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 14:33, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer: ttwiki's greatest potential audience is in Russia, but around 20-25% global - in Central Asia (mainly) + Turkey + UAE + Germany + USA + Canada + Finland + Australia ... Good to let these diasporas see ttWP community is active in international contests as well.
- As for the CentralNotice: we believe @Camelia.boban & WikiDonne are doing a great job, so happy to support their activities with a standard banner, whenever it's ready. Thanks to you as well. Frhdkazan (talk) 15:02, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you both @DerHexer & @Frhdkazan, graphic design it's not my cup of tea :-D. I removed the white borders from the banners. Camelia (talk) 17:26, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

[edit]- Using an image for the banner is not the best choice, but I don't think that we can accept a GoogleDoc as landing page; @Astinson (WMF): what do you think? —DerHexer (Talk) 18:51, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
Hi @Astinson (WMF): @Astinson (WMF):, the image I provided was just for visual purpose, the code was also shared in the request and I also provided links to images used (uploaded on commons already). Additionally, the alternative is to change the landing page to the Bootcamp metapage and then participants can follow the process to apply on there.
Please if the banner code I shared won't work, we are very okay with a simple banner. Edriiic (talk) 13:54, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
- I agree on the use of meta page -- because that allows the participants to first evaluate if they trust the link, and for you to communicate more to them @Edriiic. If sending to a meta page, have you considered using Event_Center/Registration -- or do you need to collect more information from the folks to choose whether or not to accept them? Astinson (WMF) (talk) 12:13, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, the Event Center Registration will serve the purpose. There's really no extra information needed, just for the interested participants to make an application, which will be evaluated by a board that will look into the applications. Edriiic (talk) 20:12, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
Hi @DerHexer: @Astinson (WMF): I spoke too fast, I don't think the Event Center/Registration will serve the purpose as participants will need to answer a series of question for them to be choosen to attend the bootcamp physically. I have gone ahead to create a meta page Afroyanga Bootcamp/Afroyanga Bootcamp 2.0. So the banner can be pointing to that page and if they decide to apply after reading about the bootcamp they can move on from there. Thanks for your support on this.
- Hi @DerHexer: @Johannnes89: @Martin Urbanec: @Vermont: please this is a gentle reminder on this pending request. Your attention to this will be greatly appreciated. Edriiic (talk)
- @Edriiic: As said, we cannot use full images as suggest. I have developed a version that could be acceptable. Please check the campaign, banner and preview. As soon as you approve it (please ping me with signature and date: ~~~~), I can enable the campaign. Usually, we require notifications to all local community spaces so that they are aware that a campaign will happen, furthermore we usually need the banner texts and landing page translated into all target languages. Because of the short time frame, we will make an exception here. Please take more time for future applications and have a look at the how-to PDF linked above. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 20:43, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @DerHexerthanks for your feedback. Yes, the banner version developed by you is perfect. I approve it. I have also marked the landing page for translation. Thanks for your support. @DerHexer:Edriiic (talk) 10:31, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

- Hello Ciell, Vermont or other CN admins, can anyone please look into this? It's supposed to launch in around a week now. Thanks – Ammarpad (talk) 14:19, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
- This campaign starts in 5 minutes. Could a CN help with this request, please? I'm respectfully pinging Vermont and any passing CN admin should help with this request. T CellsTalk
@User:Romaine could you please help with this request? Thank you. T CellsTalk 07:30, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you, DerHexer. We appreciate the feedback. We are working on this now. We will ping you as soon as we make significant progress. Reading Beans (talk) 18:19, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

[edit]- @Ammarpad and T Cells: Global campaigns are a nightmare to program for us. The table on Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos 2024/Participating Communities is a good first step, but it consumed a lot of my time to find out the “Philippine languages”, find the right language codes for a couple of languages (Setswana -> Tswana -> tn.wikipedia.org), etc. All in all, I tried my best so please check everything with care!
Some further remarks: We cannot enable the campaign globally as requested because that could make trouble with unaffected countries (e.g., a German campaign organized by the Austrian chapter should only target German-language Wikipedia in Austria because Wikimedia Austria might not be able or interested in covering activities in Germany, Switzerland, etc. as well). For that reason, I have limited the campaign to the participating countries (except for Czechia who requested their own campaign).
Another problem is that we neither have translations available for the banner text (except for Italian which I've included although a two-sentence translation causes some problems with a one-sentence original text) and landing page (about 5 out of 48 languages). I have added a note to the banner that people should help with translations, but usually we only enable campaigns when translations are ready (I'd say at least 50 % should be available). Please reach out to your contacts as soon as possible and have them provided translations at least for the banner and also as fast as possible for the landing page. Until I will see some progress here, I cannot enable the campaign.
Here you can find the campaign, banner and preview. As said, please check everything, approve it and ping me about the progress with translations so that I can enable the campaign. Do the same when new languages or countries show up. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 18:04, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for your help, DerHexer. It's much appreciated. Could you please provide a direct translation link of the CentralNotice banner? Something like this in 2021. Thank you. T CellsTalk 18:25, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

- Hi DerHexer, Just a quick update: translations for the banner have been completed, and the landing page is being translated. Thank you for your help. T CellsTalk 20:50, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- @T Cells: Thanks, I have marked the trainslations as published. Please check the campaign and banner (preview) and let me know when I can enable the campaign. I think that it makes sense to wait some more hours so that work on the translations of the landing page can progress, but it could be enabled now, in my opinion. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:11, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- Everything looks fine. I trust your judgement. We should wait for more hours and it could be enabled tomorrow. Thank you so much. T CellsTalk 21:32, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

- Comment Hello DerHexer, it looks like the WPWP Campaign notice banner is no longer being displayed. I am in Nigeria for example and what I keep seeing is the Wiki Loves Earth notice banner only. And there has been at least one report by the coordinator of the campaign in ff.wikipedia.org that the notice banner is also not displaying there. Please help us look into this issue. Thank you for your help. T CellsTalk 06:51, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- @T Cells: Well, we have a cookie set for up to 5 displays every two days. After that, the cookie should be reset. As of now, there are four campaigns running simultaneously in Nigera when you visit English Wikipedia, for example. You should see the banners, please check again after two days. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 09:13, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the clarifications, DerHexer. It's appreciated. T CellsTalk 12:47, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

[edit]@DerHexer and Johannnes89:, can you check & approve, best --Christian Philipp (WMAT) (talk) 10:34, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Christian Philipp (WMAT), ich hab die Kampagne [11] erstellt und das auch mit dem Banner probiert, aber irgendwas läuft da noch nicht korrekt mit dem von euch intendierten Hintergrund. Entweder bin ich gerade zu doof oder euer Code enthält nen Fehler (Banner [12], Vorschau [13]). Ich kann mir das aber frühestens in ein paar Tagen anschauen, jetzt fahr ich gerade zum Zukunftskongress. Vielleicht kann Martin auch helfen, den Fehler zu finden, aber der ist gerade im Urlaub.
- Es ist übrigens bei solchen Anfragen sinnvoll, auf frühere, ähnliche Central Notice requests zu verweisen (z.B. den [14]), das hilft mir u.A. beim Abgleich, dass die Kampagneneinstellungen so gut sind. Im konkreten Fall ließ sich aber durch den Blick auf eure Bannerseite ermitteln, dass es frühere Kampagnen gibt, die ich mir mal anschauen könnte. :) --Johannnes89 (talk) 11:24, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- danke, ich kümmer mich drum. Kann ich das direkt testen? lg --Christian Philipp (WMAT) (talk) 12:12, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Johannnes89:, hab den Fehler gefunden. Kannst du bitte nochmals checken. lg --Christian Philipp (WMAT) (talk) 07:39, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Danke dir @Christian Philipp (WMAT), nun funktioniert es [15]. Johannnes89 (talk) 15:05, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- ich danke dir, @Johannnes89:, ich habe nochmals an der Textgröße geschraubt, war auf mobile ok, aber auf desktop zu klein. statt relativer 120% habe ich jetzt 20px als font-size genommen. Kannst du das bitte nochmals aktualisieren. Frage: Muss ich dann noch was machen, um den Banner am 1.7. zu aktivieren, oder geht das jetzt automatisch. lg --Christian Philipp (WMAT) (talk) 18:27, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Christian Philipp (WMAT) done [16]. Die Kampagne ist mit Start am 01.07. aktiviert. Johannnes89 (talk) 18:32, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

- @Romaine please take a look at phab:T364614, the image used [19] at Special:CentralNoticeBanners/edit/wle_2024_cz is way too large. Please use a scaled down version (e.g. [20]), just like e.g. Special:CentralNoticeBanners/edit/wle 2024 de ([21]). Johannnes89 (talk) 13:15, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

[edit]We'd like to continue the campaign from last year (request). The banner will only be running for two days before the first Wednesday of each month, and will be targeted to users with less than 100 edits. Jon Harald Søby (WMNO) (talk) 08:24, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer you handled this last year right? Do you have time to coordinate again? Ciell (talk) 18:51, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- Nope, Jon organized it himself. I hope that he will do it for this year again. ;) And as far as I know, they want to reuse the campaign of last year. —DerHexer (Talk) 19:13, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
