WikiConvention francophone 2022

Cher wikimédien

Le comité de programme de la WikiConvention a le plaisir de vous annoncer que votre intervention Gestion et Maintenance d'une Petite Wiki: Cas de Wikipédia en Darija Marocaine a été retenue. Le programme étant très chargé, nous vous demandons de bien vouloir restreindre votre conférence à un temps de 20 minutes. Les participants auront ensuite 5 minutes pour vous poser leurs questions.

La convention aura lieu à Paris les 19 et 20 novembre. Merci de nous signaler votre disponibilité pour ces deux dates en répondant à ce message et en me pingant, ainsi qu’Adélaïde Calais WMFr.

Si vous avez demandé une bourse complète Afrique et que vous ne l’avez pas obtenue, nous vous offrons la possibilité de présenter tout de même votre travail à travers un poster : si vous nous envoyez un visuel format A1 (pdf ou jpg) nous l’imprimerons et l’afficherons dans la salle réservée à cet effet. Les participants pourront ainsi découvrir votre projet et vous contacter par la suite pour échanger avec vous s’ils ont des questions. Merci de nous faire parvenir votre visuel au 31 Août dernier délai.

Cordialement.

Get started with the Lua interface to simplify the preparation of modules for translation in MetaWiki

Greetings!

The Language and Product Localization team has developed a Lua interface to simplify the preparation of Lua modules for translation in the MetaWiki platform. This means that module developers can now use the new Lua interface to load translatable strings, and the translators can translate them in the same translation interface that is used for templates and wiki pages.

This improvement makes it easier for translators to find and edit module strings without dealing with raw Lua code. It helps prevent mistakes that could break the module during translation.

We invite you to watch our demo video and read more about translatable modules to understand how it works. Please give us your feedback on this talk page on how well the Lua interface addresses the challenges in your workflow and how useful it is in module localization tasks. You can also refer to Module:User Wikimedia project, which was recently converted to utilize these messages, for example usage.

Your feedback is important as it will help us evaluate and decide how to continue developing and improving this interface, extend it to other wikis, or change our approach.

Thank you, and we anticipate your honest feedback.

Invitation to the Yokohama Editathon

Hello Ideophagous. Thank you for your help with the Wikimedia Japan-Morocco Friendship. I'm hosting the Yokohama Editathon starting tomorrow. I'd be grateful for your help in creating articles for the Arabic Wikipedia. Feel free to join us. See the event page for details.

https://w.wiki/Ehib

Here's a Diff article about it. Thank you very much. https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%97%E3%83%AD%E3%82%B8%E3%82%A7%E3%82%AF%E3%83%88:%E3%82%A2%E3%82%A6%E3%83%88%E3%83%AA%E3%83%BC%E3%83%81/%E3%82%A6%E3%82%A3%E3%82%AD%E3%83%A1%E3%83%87%E3%82%A3%E3%82%A2%E3%83%BB%E3%83%AF%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AB%E3%83%89in%E5%9B%B3%E6%9B%B8%E9%A4%A8%E7%B7%8F%E5%90%88%E5%B1%952025/WLF2025%E3%82%A8%E3%83%87%E3%82%A3%E3%82%BF%E3%82%BD%E3%83%B3%E3%80%8C%E6%A8%AA%E6%B5%9C%E3%80%8D Wadakuramon (talk) 07:01, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

I got the Diff article wrong. This is the correct. https://diff.wikimedia.org/2025/09/10/yokohama-editathon-to-be-held-in-october/ Wadakuramon (talk) 07:11, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello @Wadakuramon. Thanks for the invitation. I have added my name to the participants. Ideophagous (talk) 07:11, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

Thank you very much！ Wadakuramon (talk) 09:42, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello @Wadakuramon. On another topic, I would like to give a badge to all Japanese participants in the Japan-Morocco edit-a-thon, just like I did on arywiki, but I do not have enough rights on jawiki to create the template page of the badge. I have created it as a subpage of my user page here. Can you please check it, copy the code and create the template? The translation was done by Eugene Ormandy. I will take care of distributing it on the talk pages of all participants. I hope it's not against the local policies on jawiki. If that's the case, please ignore my request. Best regards! Ideophagous (talk) 19:11, 1 October 2025 (UTC)

Hi Ideophagous, I read your request. But I never create a templete, so I don't know how to create. If it easy for me, I will try. Do you teach me how? Wadakuramon (talk) 00:10, 2 October 2025 (UTC)

It's the same as any Wiki page, you just have to create a new page with the title "Template:日本モロッコ友好会バッジ" (simply follow the link), then copy into it the content of this page. I will take care of the rest. Thanks! Ideophagous (talk) 05:31, 2 October 2025 (UTC)

Updates from Capacity Exchange (CapX)!

Hello Ideophagous,

My name is Joris Darlington Quarshie, and I am an Outreach Facilitator for the Capacity Exchange (CapX) — a platform for finding and connecting with peers to exchange knowledge and skills on a global level.

CapX is a community-built tool, designed by and for the Wikimedia Movement, to make it easier for Wikimedians across the world to find and connect, collaborate, and exchange skills and knowledge with peers.

If you don't know it yet, I invite you to access capx.toolforge.org and create your user profile with your Wikimedia account. But, if you already have a profile, I invite you to check out the new features and possibilities we just launched. I am sure you will be delighted.

CapX's new version incorporates valuable community feedback gathered over the past months, including the Organization Profile - a feature for Wikimedia affiliates, initiatives, or community groups to create their own CapX presence (see here how to create yours).

Explore CapX's new features

→ Access: capx.toolforge.org
→ Watch the launch video:Meet the Capacity Exchange
→ Navigate CapX's User Guide and Frequently Asked Questions
→ Share your profile on Meta by adding the predefinition {{CapacityExchange}} to your userpage.
→ Visit our Meta Page for all documentation on the project

Please, let me know if you think your community would enjoy a presentation, workshop demonstration, or feedback session. I would be happy to support you on that. Just reach out, and we can schedule the best date and time together.

Best regards,
