Hola!

On Friday we have planned an edit-a-thon #WikiGap[*1*] at the Gabriela
Mistral Cultural Center (GAM)[*2*] in Santiago of Chile. The team has
worked enormously. And thanks to the fact that we were able to hire two
people, we can finally organize the times for the volunteers and the
directory. The Embassy of Sweden in Chile has also done a great job, with
the support of "Hay Mujeres".[*3*] This edit-a-thon #WikiGap tries to
increase the number and quality of the articles of Chilean and Swedish
women athletes.

Best!
Rocío

Hoi,
What makes me happy is that a public discussion is happening about the
performance and the future performance of the query engine of the Wikidata
query engine. Not only are things in the open but it has triggered
responses from knowledgeable people making it plain that there is room for
future growth.

Oh and Magnus is sprinkling his magic making his software perform better,
taking less of a toll to the update process of the query engine..
Thanks,
 GerardM

What’s making me happy is also sad (how can one separate hapiness from sadness 
as you obviously need one to measure the other). My mom is in hospital, her 
breath cancer spreaded again with metastasis. Yep, looks bad. 

But I discovered a thread which was shared on twitter by francophone 
wikipedians by the sixth form poet and we laughed so much... I had to stop 
reading the puns as she held her sides telling me it was hurting her. 

It was great she could forget the pain for a moment. #metoo

Here is one of his puns : 
https://twitter.com/sixthformpoet/status/617649146841989120?s=21

People found guilty of not using punctuation deserve the longest sentence 
possible.

We also appreciated the story of the cemetary. Weird but sweet. 
https://twitter.com/sixthformpoet/status/1137658720698228736?s=21


And another thing, in times of great pressure, I take time to make myself a 
vegan jogurt, very very slowly. This is how it looks like : 
Cos wikimedian geeks need to get involved in some kind of earthly activities 
for a change and to balance the sometimes extreme emotions we experience in our 
heated debates. I will also at one point when it stops raining take a book and 
wander of the Rhone with my kayak to find moments of peace : 



If you come to Geneva and you want a ride, shout (you will probably have to 
bring earplugs too if you want a peaceful ride as I am an awful chatterbox). 

That’s all geeks!

What's making me happy this week:

* French Wikipedia administrator and OTRS volunteer 0x010C
 created a calendar in Lua
that works on MediaWiki. See https://meta.wikimedia.org/wik
i/Template:Events_calendar and https://lists.wikimedia.org/pi
permail/wikimedia-l/2018-March/089886.html.

* Wikimedia Russia's multilingual writing contest regarding cities and
regions in the 2018 FIFA world cup looks interesting. I like the concept of
associating Wikipedia writing campaigns with popular current events. See

quickly reverted (in approximately 7 minutes) an edit which inserted

The flowchart is under discussion as part of deciding how to advise on
use of the proposed "120" year rule of thumb for old images without an
author's death date. So no, it's not ready for uploaders to see it
yet.

2018-03-15 Thread Amir E. Aharoni 
What's making me happy this week:

The old Wikipedia puzzle globe logo is not used on any Wikipedia any longer.

A bit of history, in case you aren't familiar with it:

The old logo was retired in 2010. Here's the image:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Wikipedia_Logo_1.0.png . It had
incorrectly drawn letters in some languages, and it was not rendered in
modern vector graphics. The new logo,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Wikipedia-logo-v2.svg , corrects these
mistakes.

For various technical, community, and linguistic reasons it was not
actually immediately replaced in all the projects in 2010. User:Odder and
User:Nemo_bis, who care about language diversity, took it upon themselves
to replace the logos in all the languages. It took some time, and last week
this was finally accomplished.

The most prominent of the last languages that still had the old logo was
the Urdu Wikipedia.

There are still some logos to update because they have untranslated "The
Free Encyclopedia" text or issues with graphics rendering, but the old logo
is completely gone from the sites' headers.

1. Happy to rediscover Clipboard History plugin in Chrome. It saves
the frustration of hunting around, or rewording, a reusable snippet of
wikitext on Commons image pages.
2. As part of a Commons discussion on copyright, for the first time in
a couple of years created a flowchart, and experienced the same
pleasure in setting out logic in this old fashioned way as I used to
experience in the 1980s. ... Do kids learn about von Neumann these
days?

What's making me happy this week:

1. A recent entry in the Mozilla Blog discussed the possible value of
anonymity in decreasing bias in code review processes:
https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2018/03/08/gender-bias-code-reviews/

2. The opt-in "pingback" telemetry from MediaWiki installations, which is
available since March 2017, suggests that there are more than 40,000 unique
installations. See:
https://pingback.wmflabs.org,
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgPingback and
https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/MediaWiki_Pingback_Privacy_Statement.

There is also some news which is a little older and I am now getting around
to sharing here:

3. A research project has been started which aims to test whether vandal
activity can be detected in (near) real time, which may open opportunities
for interventions earlier in the process of publishing edits. See
https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/ai/2018-January/000221.html.

What's making you happy this week? You are welcome to write in any language.

Quelle belle idée de transcender les barrières linguistiques!

Ich finde dass wirklich wichtig dass wir zusammen in verschiedenen Sprachen 
zusammen reden.

I’m sure I made mistakes in the last one, but it was fun trying. Thanks Pine 
for this idea! This made me happy 

(Hello, I am trying something new this week by writing in Spanish. I am
hoping to encourage people to contribute to this conversation in their

Hola, estoy intentando algo nuevo esta semana escribiendo en español. Espero
animar a las personas a contribuir a esta conversación en sus idiomas

Algo que me hace feliz esta semana es la disponibilidad de "diffs visuales"
