tw.net
[edit]Hello, Patriccck,
Re tw.net.
It is not part of the Wikimedia Foundation projects. It should not be included, since it is completely autonomous. Hope this helps.

The Affiliate-selected Board seats process welcomes your support
[edit]
Hello. You are receiving this message because you are active in the field of translations <3 The movement needs you! The Nominations phase has started for the ongoing selection process of two Board members, and the timeline is quite tight.
A Translation Central is available to help translators figure out what's been covered and what's left to do. Over the course of the next few weeks, your attention on candidates' profiles is particularly welcome.
While there are four languages that are especially relevant for multiple affiliates (namely Arabic, French, Russian and Spanish), we are asking your help for Chinese, Ukrainian, Bengali, Czech, Hungarian, Romanian, Italian, Korean, Portuguese, Polish, Farsi, German, Cantonese, Finnish, Hindi, Thai, Dutch, and Greek, as these also matter to affiliates! If you can't help: please see if you know anyone in your circle who could, and spread the word :) Thank you! Elitre (WMF) and Facilitators of ASBS 2019, 21:35, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

Maybe we can translate WAM CentralNotice?
[edit]When I saw you create the CentralNotice request of WAM on Czech Wikipedia, I think maybe we can translate it, and target more language Wikipedia. But I am unfamiliar with this.....Could you help me? or tell me who maybe can help. (P.S. My English is not good. If you read sentence very hard, it's my wrong....)--KOKUYO (talk) 20:29, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

Feel free to contact him about global banners. I hope that I helped. --Patriccck (talk) 20:43, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

We invite all registered users to vote on the 2021 Community Wishlist Survey. You can vote from now until 21 December for as many different wishes as you want.
In the Survey, wishes for new and improved tools for experienced editors are collected. After the voting, we will do our best to grant your wishes. We will start with the most popular ones.
We, the Community Tech, are one of the Wikimedia Foundation teams. We create and improve editing and wiki moderation tools. What we work on is decided based on results of the Community Wishlist Survey. Once a year, you can submit wishes. After two weeks, you can vote on the ones that you're most interested in. Next, we choose wishes from the survey to work on. Some of the wishes may be granted by volunteer developers or other teams.
We are waiting for your votes. Thank you!

Wiki of Functions followup
[edit]Hi there, I'm a researcher for the Wikilambda project. Last month we held a naming contest and I'm following up with those who voted to see if you might be willing to provide some feedback to help guide the project.
This would be a 45 minute conversation about your past experience with other Wikimedia projects and thoughts about the future of this new initiative. I'm hoping to gather a wide range of perspectives so I'd be interested in your opinion regardless of whether you plan to have further involvement.
As a way of saying thanks, the research team is offering a $35 gift card (in your local currency) for participation. We could chat by phone or through a website for audio conferencing.
If you're interested just pick a time slot from this calendar link:

Hope to hear from you soon!

- @JDH264 Hello, I am not very good in English, so I am not sure if I would understand you. Patriccck (talk) 10:40, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Patriccck Okay, thanks for letting me know. In future research projects we may be able to find an interpreter who can translate between English and Czech. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by JDH264 (talk)
- @JDH264 I can speak and understand English at level B1, maybe partially B2. I do not know if it is sufficient for that 45-minute conversation. --Patriccck (talk) 14:21, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
