Machine translations?

Good day. Please refrain from using online translation tools to translate content here, as shown at Special:Diff/26644302. --Min☠︎rax^«¦talk¦» 10:49, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Unblock request granted This blocked user asked to be unblocked, and one or more administrators has reviewed and granted this request. Request reason: reason :I was translating from English to Kannada, and most of the time, there was no change needed. Whenever there was a change, I made the necessary corrections. However, I have now been blocked by the admin for approving machine translations. I did not intentionally make any false translations; if there were any errors, they were purely by mistake. I kindly request you to unblock me, and I assure you that I will be more careful and not repeat any mistakes in the future.Thank you. Unblock reason: Sure, if you agree to be more careful in the future and have learned from your mistakes that landed you a block, I don't see why not. --SHB2000 (t • c) 03:20, 18 May 2024 (UTC) This template should be archived normally.

@Hariprasad Shetty10: Do you agree to not use machine translations in the future? --SHB2000 (t • c) 22:29, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

@SHB2000 I think translation issue is with attention to detail not with machine translation, so requirement not to use machine translation seems unreasonable, and many of Kannada translation are actively checked by kannada community members as seen in diff link posted by Minorax, since @Hariprasad Shetty10 expressed that they will be more careful in future while translating, As a Kannada language community member i don't see any actual reason for barring them from using machine translation since kannada language machine translation are more accurate in my experience. ~aanzx ^✉ _© 02:35, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Okay, cool. I've unblocked them. --SHB2000 (t • c) 03:20, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Also, I just realised that I hadn't properly unblocked you – apologies for that. --SHB2000 (t • c) 00:22, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Expression of Interest: Advanced Train the Trainer (ATTT) 2025

Dear User,

I hope you are doing well. We are pleased to inform you that the Open Knowledge Initiative team at IIIT-H is organising an event called Advanced Train the Trainer. The Expression of Interest is already open for submissions, and we encourage you to apply if you are interested or haven't applied yet. The deadline to submit your Expression of Interest has been extended until 26 August. The Advanced Train the Trainer (ATTT) 2025 will be held on 10, 11, and 12 October 2025 at IIIT-Hyderabad. Wikimedians from India will be a part of the event.

ATTT is designed for experienced Wikimedians, particularly those who have previously participated in Train the Trainer. The program aims to develop further their leadership, thematic expertise, and practical application skills. The training will be conducted in two thematic tracks:

• Evaluation, Impact, and Data Storytelling – Learn to measure, analyse, and narrate the impact of Wikimedia initiatives through hands-on labs and peer feedback.
• Project Design: From Learning to Action – Work on a 3-month project with mentoring and planning tools, turning learning into impactful, context-driven initiatives.

• Apply here: Expression of Interest form
• Deadline to apply (extended): 26 August 2025
• Event Dates: 10-12 October 2025

Note: If you are unsure about which track to choose, please still submit your application by answering the questions thoroughly. Our team will review it and assign you to the most suitable track. If you are not comfortable applying directly on Meta, you may send your proposal (using the Meta template and with a valid reason) to nitesh@research.iiit.ac.in. If selected, the OKI team will publish it on Meta on your behalf.

We look forward to receiving your applications and working together to shape impactful Wikimedia leadership!

Regards,

Open Knowledge Initiatives Team
