Editing News #3—2016

طالعها بلغة أخرى • قائمة الاشتراك في النشرة الإخبارية متعددة اللغات هذه

هل تعلم؟

هل تعلم أنه يمكنك بسهولة إعادة ترتيب الأعمدة والصفوف في المحرر المرئي؟

اختر خانة في عمود أو صف ترغب في نقلها. اضغط على السهم الموجود في بداية هذا الصف أو العمود كي تفتح قائمة منسدلة (كما هو مبين). اختر إما "Move before" أو "Move after" كي تنقل العمود أو اختر "Move above" أو "Move below" كي تنقل الصف.

يمكنك الاطلاع على دليل المستخدم والمساعدة في ترجمته حيث أن هذا الدليل يحتوي على المزيد من المعلومات المتعلقة بكيفية استخدام المحرر المرئي.

منذ صدور النشرة الإخبارية الأخيرة، ركز فريق المحرر المرئي جهدهم على محرر نص ويكي جديد. كما أن الفريق قدم بعض السمات المحدودة وكذلك أداة تحرير الخرائط الجديدة. لوحة العمل الخاصة بهذه الأمور متاحة على فابريكاتور. يمكنك مشاهدة الروابط الشبكية لقائمة الأعمال التي انتهى العمل عليها كل أسبوع على mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings. أولويات الفريق الحالية هي إصلاح الأعطال وتدشين محرر نصوص الويكي 2017 في صورة سمة تجريبية وكذلك تحسين دعم اللغة.

أحدث التغييرات

• يمكنك الآن أن تحدد حجم الخط ليكون صغيرا أو كبيرا.[1]
• كانت تظهر القوالب الخفية عل هيئة أيقونة أحجية. أما الآن يظهر اسم القالب المخفي بجوار أيقونة الأحجية هذه.[2] سوف تظهر سمة مشابهة الجزء الأول من تعليقات إتش تي إم إل المخفية.[3]
• تعرض التصنيفات في نهاية كل صفحة. لو ضغطت على التصنيفات سوف يفتح أمامك مساحة تعديل التصنيفات.[4]
• في عدة مواقع ويكي يمكنك الآن إضافة خرائط إلى الصفحات. اذهب إلى قائمة إدراج واختر بند "Maps". يضيف في الوقت الحالي فريق الاستكشاف المزيد من السمات في هذا المجال مثل الأشكال الجغرافية. يمكنك الاطلاع على المزيد على موقع mediawiki.org.[5]
• والآن كتب على زر "حفظ" عبارة "احفظ الصفحة" حينما تنشئ صفحة كما كتبت عبارة "حفظ التغييرات" حينما تعدل على صفحة قائمة.[6] لاحقا، سوف يكتب على زر "حفظ الصفحة" كلمة أخرى وهي "نشر الصفحة". سوف يؤثر ذلك على كلا من أنظمة التحرير المرئية وتحرير نص الويكي. يمكنك الاطلاع على المزيد على موقع ميتا.
• تستعين الآن مجموعات الصور بنموذج مرئي للتعديل. يمكنك مشاهدة مصغرات من الصور وإضافة ملفات جديدة وإزالة الصور الغير مرغوب فيها وإعادة ترتيب الصور عن طريق السحب والإفلات وكذلك إضافة تعليقات لكل صورة. استخدم لسان "خيارات" كي تحدد طريقة عرض مجموعة الصور وحجم الصور وإضافة عنوان للمجموعة.[7]

تغييرات مستقبلية

سوف يقدم المحرر المرئي لكافة المحررين في مواقع ويكيبيديا "المرحلة 6" العشرة المتبقية أثناء الشهر القادم. يرغب المطورون في التعرف على ما إذا كانت الطباعة بلغتك تبدو أمرا طبيعيا في المحرر المرئي أم لا. يرجى إرسال تعليقاتك واللغة أو اللغات التي اختبرتها على مسرد التغذية الراجعة على موقع mediawiki.org. سوف يؤثر ذلك على عدة لغات منها التايلاندية والبورمية والآرامية.

يعكف الفريق حاليا على تصميم محرر نص ويكي معاصر. سوف يبدو محرر نصوص الويكي 2017 شبيها بالمحرر المرئي وسيكون قادرا على الاستعانة بخدمة citoid وأدوات حديثة أخرى. قد يصبح نظام التحرير الجديد هذا متوفرا في صورة سمة تجريبية على الحواسيب المكتبية في شهر أكتوبر/تشرين الأول 2016. يمكنك الاطلاع على المزيد عن هذا المشروع على تحديث الحالة العامة على القائمة البريدية لويكيميديا.

فلنعمل معا

• هل تدرس للمحررين الجدد كيفية استخدام المحرر المرئي؟ هل تساعد في إعداد سمة المراجع التقائية Citoid على موقع الويكي الخاص بك؟ هل كتبت أو استوردت بيانات قالب لأهم قوالب الاقتباس الخاصة بك؟ هل أنت راغب في مساعدة المحررين الجدد والمجتمعات المحدودة فيما يتعلق بالمحرر المرئي؟ يرجى تسجيل بياناتك على فريق عمل المجتمع للمحرر المرئي.

• إن لم تكن تقرأ هذه النشرة بلغتك المفضلة، نرجو منك مساعدتنا في الترجمة! اشترك في القائمة البريدية للمترجمين أو اتصل بنا مباشرة، حتى يمكننا إعلامك بموعد صدور العدد الجديد حينما يصبح جاهزا. شكرًا لك!

I apologise that this message is in English. ⧼Centralnotice-shared-help-translate⧽

We are having a problem with attackers taking over wiki accounts with privileged user rights (for example, admins, bureaucrats, oversighters, checkusers). It appears that this may be because of weak or reused passwords.

Community members are working along with members of multiple teams at the Wikimedia Foundation to address this issue.

In the meantime, we ask that everyone takes a look at the passwords they have chosen for their wiki accounts. If you know that you've chosen a weak password, or if you've chosen a password that you are using somewhere else, please change those passwords.

Select strong passwords – eight or more characters long, and containing letters, numbers, and punctuation. Joe Sutherland (نقاش) / MediaWiki message delivery (نقاش) 23:59، 13 نوفمبر 2016 (ت ع م)

Help test offline Wikipedia

Hello! The Reading team at the Foundation is looking to support readers who want to take articles offline to read and share later on their phones - a use case we learned about from deep research earlier this year.

New way to edit wikitext

ملخص: توجد سمة تجريبية جديدة يمكن استخدامها اختياريا والخاصة بطريقة عرض نصوص الويكي على المحرر المرئي. يرجى تجربتها من هنا.

ننهض جميعا في قسم التعديل التابع لمؤسسة ويكيميديا بمسؤولية تحسين عملية التعديل لكافة محررينا سواء كانوا وافدين جدد أو من ذوي الباع الطويل. لقد كنا نحسن بوتيرة بطيئة المحرر المرئي على ضوء الآراء والملاحظات وكذلك اختبارات المستخدمين وطلبات السمات التي وصلتنا. إلا أن هذا الأمر لا يلبي حاجات كافة المستخدمين: سواء كنت تحتاج لتعديل نص ويكي على صفحة نقاش أو إنشاء قالب أو إصلاح بعض نصوص المراجع الغير عاملة، تحتاج في بعض الأحيان للاستعانة بنصوص الويكي كما أن العديد من المحررين من ذوي الخبرة الطويلة يفضلون استخدامها.

ومن هذا المنطلق نوينا إضافة "وضع نصوص الويكي" للمحرر المرئي منذ وقت طويل. هذا الوضع يقدم مقدار كبير من سمات المحرر المرئي قدر المستطاع، وذلك للأوقات التي تحتاج فيها لنصوص الويكي أو ترغب في الاستعانة بنصوص الويكي. سوف يكون للوضع نفس واجهة المستخدم كما هو الحال مع المحرر المرئي، ويشمل ذلك نفس شريط الأدوات الذي يحتل الجزء الأعلى ويستعين بذات الأزرار. هذا الوضع ييسر الوصول إلى خدمة الاستشهادات السريعة لأغراض تحديد صيغة الاستشهادات وكذلك خواص بحث مدمجة تتعلق بإدراج الصور ولإمكانية إضافة قوالب جديدة باستخدام واجهة حوارية بسيطة. كما هو الحال في المحرر المرئي، لو لصقت نص منسق نسخته من صفحة أخرى، هذا التنسيق (مثل النص الأسود العريض) سوف يتحول تلقائيا إلى نص ويكي.

كافة مواقع الويكي الآن يمكنها الوصول إلى هذا الوضع في صورة سمة تجريبية. حينما تفعل هذه السمة، سوف تحل محل محرر نصوص الويكي القائم في كافة المواقع. إن لم تعجبك هذه السمة، يمكنك التراجع عن هذا في أي وقت وذلك حينما تلغي تفعيل السمة التجريبية من قائمة تفضيلاتك. لا نرغب في مفاجئة أي شخص، وبالتالي فهذه السمة هي سمة تجريبية تعتمد على التسجيل فيها فقط لا غير. وهي لن تصبح مفعلة تلقائيا لأي شخص كان، حتى ولو اخترت من قبل الخانة التي تشير إلى "تفعيل معظم الميزات التجريبية تلقائيًا".

يستند وضع نصوص الويكي الجديد إلى المحرر المرئي، وبالتالي فهو يتطلب استخدام نصوص جافا (كما هو الحالي مع محرر نصوص الويكي الحالي). هذا الوضع لا يعمل مع النبيطات التي صممت فقط لتستخدم مع المحرر القديم (وكذلك العكس بالعكس)، وبالتالي سوف لن يستطيع بعض المستخدمين الاستعانة بالنبيطات التي يجدون أنها مهمة لهم. يسرنا أن نتعاون مع مصممي النبيطات كي نساعدهم في تحديث الكود البرمجي كي يمكن استخدام هذه النبيطات مع كلا المحررين. نحن لا ننوي التخلص من محرر نصوص الويكي الرئيسي الحالي على الأجهزة المكتبية في المستقبل المنظور. كما أننا لن نعطل الإمكانية الحالية لتحرير نصوص الويكي كما هي دون استخدام نصوص جافا. في الختام، ورغم أن الأمر واضح لا يحتاج إلى توضيح، لو كنت تفضل الاستمرار في استخدام محرر نصوص الويكي الحالي، يمكنك أن تفعل ذلك.

هذه النسخة هي نسخة مبكرة، ونود أن نعرف ما هو رأيكم حتى يمكننا تحسينها. يرجى إضافة رأيك وملاحظاتك المتعلقة بالوضع الجديد على صفحة الآراء والملاحظات. يمكنك أن تكتب التعليقات بأي لغة تشاء. شكرا لكم.

New version of wikilabels

Sorry for English, It would be great if someone translates this. Hello, Wikilabels is the system to label edits for ORES. Until now, users would have to visit a page in Wikipedia, for example WP:Labels and install a gadget and then label edits for ORES. With the new version (0.4.0) deployed today, you can directly go to Wikilabels home page, for example https://labels.wmflabs.org/ui/enwiki and label edits from there. If you installed the gadget, you can remove it now. We also provided some sort of minification and bundling to improve its performance.

Labeling edits would help ORES work more accurately and in case ORES review tool is not enabled in your wiki, you can provide these data for us using wikilabels so can enable it for your wiki as well.

Review of initial updates on Wikimedia movement strategy process

Note: Apologies for cross-posting and sending in English. Message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki.

The Wikimedia movement is beginning a movement-wide strategy discussion, a process which will run throughout 2017. For 15 years, Wikimedians have worked together to build the largest free knowledge resource in human history. During this time, we've grown from a small group of editors to a diverse network of editors, developers, affiliates, readers, donors, and partners. Today, we are more than a group of websites. We are a movement rooted in values and a powerful vision: all knowledge for all people. As a movement, we have an opportunity to decide where we go from here.

This movement strategy discussion will focus on the future of our movement: where we want to go together, and what we want to achieve. We hope to design an inclusive process that makes space for everyone: editors, community leaders, affiliates, developers, readers, donors, technology platforms, institutional partners, and people we have yet to reach. There will be multiple ways to participate including on-wiki, in private spaces, and in-person meetings. You are warmly invited to join and make your voice heard.

The immediate goal is to have a strategic direction by Wikimania 2017 to help frame a discussion on how we work together toward that strategic direction.

Regular updates are being sent to the Wikimedia-l mailing list, and posted on Meta-Wiki. Beginning with this message, monthly reviews of these updates will be sent to this page as well. Sign up to receive future announcements and monthly highlights of strategy updates on your user talk page.

Here is a review of the updates that have been sent so far:

• Update 1 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (15 December 2016)
  • Introduction to process and information about budget spending resolution to support it
• Update 2 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (23 December 2016)
  • Start of search for Lead Architect for movement strategy process
• Update 3 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (8 January 2017)
  • Plans for strategy sessions at upcoming Wikimedia Conference 2017
• Update 4 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (11 January 2017)
  • Introduction of williamsworks
• Update 5 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (2 February 2017)
  • The core movement strategy team, team tracks being developed, introduction of the Community Process Steering Committee, discussions at WikiIndaba conference 2017 and the Wikimedia movement affiliates executive directors gathering in Switzerland
• Update 6 on Wikimedia movement strategy process (10 February 2017)
  • Tracks A & B process prototypes and providing feedback, updates on development of all four Tracks

More information about the movement strategy is available on the Meta-Wiki 2017 Wikimedia movement strategy portal.

We invite you to join the movement strategy conversation (now through April 15)

This message, "We invite you to join the movement strategy conversation (now through April 15)", was sent through multiple channels by Gregory Varnum on 15 and 16 of March 2017 to village pumps, affiliate talk pages, movement mailing lists, and MassMessage groups. A similar message was sent by Nicole Ebber to organized groups and their mailing lists on 15 of March 2017. This version of the message is available for translation and documentation purposes

Dear Wikimedians/Wikipedians:

Today we are starting a broad discussion to define Wikimedia's future role in the world and develop a collaborative strategy to fulfill that role. You are warmly invited to join the conversation.

There are many ways to participate, by joining an existing conversation or starting your own:

Track A (organized groups): Discussions with your affiliate, committee or other organized group (these are groups that support the Wikimedia movement).

Track B (individual contributors): On Meta or your local language or project wiki.

This is the first of three conversations, and it will run between now and April 15. The purpose of cycle 1 is to discuss the future of the movement and generate major themes around potential directions. What do we want to build or achieve together over the next 15 years?

We welcome you, as we create this conversation together, and look forward to broad and diverse participation from all parts of our movement.

• Find out more about the movement strategy process
• Learn more about volunteering to be a Discussion Coordinator

Sincerely,

Nicole Ebber (Track A Lead), Jaime Anstee (Track B Lead), & the engagement support teams

Start of the 2017 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees elections

Please accept our apologies for cross-posting this message. This message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki.

On behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee, I am pleased to announce that self-nominations are being accepted for the 2017 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Elections.

The Board of Trustees (Board) is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long-term sustainability of the Wikimedia Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. More information about this role can be found on Meta-Wiki. Please read the letter from the Board of Trustees calling for candidates.

The candidacy submission phase will last from April 7 (00:00 UTC) to April 20 (23:59 UTC).

We will also be accepting questions to ask the candidates from April 7 to April 20. You can submit your questions on Meta-Wiki.

Once the questions submission period has ended on April 20, the Elections Committee will then collate the questions for the candidates to respond to beginning on April 21.

The goal of this process is to fill the three community-selected seats on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. The election results will be used by the Board itself to select its new members.

The full schedule for the Board elections is as follows. All dates are inclusive, that is, from the beginning of the first day (UTC) to the end of the last.

• April 7 (00:00 UTC) – April 20 (23:59 UTC) – Board nominations
• April 7 – April 20 – Board candidates questions submission period
• April 21 – April 30 – Board candidates answer questions
• May 1 – May 14 – Board voting period
• May 15–19 – Board vote checking
• May 20 – Board result announcement goal

In addition to the Board elections, we will also soon be holding elections for the following roles:

• Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)
  • There are five positions being filled. More information about this election will be available on Meta-Wiki.

• Funds Dissemination Committee Ombudsperson (Ombuds)
  • One position is being filled. More information about this election will be available on Meta-Wiki.

Please note that this year the Board of Trustees elections will be held before the FDC and Ombuds elections. Candidates who are not elected to the Board are explicitly permitted and encouraged to submit themselves as candidates to the FDC or Ombuds positions after the results of the Board elections are announced.

More information on this year's elections can be found on Meta-Wiki. Any questions related to the election can be posted on the election talk page on Meta-Wiki, or sent to the election committee's mailing list, board-electionswikimedia.org.

On behalf of the Election Committee,
Katie Chan, Chair, Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee
Joe Sutherland, Community Advocate, Wikimedia Foundation

ستختبر مؤسسة ويكيميديا مركز معلوماتها الثانوي في مدينة دالاس. وذلك كي نتأكد أن ويكيبيديا ومواقع ويكيميديا الأخرى يمكنها أن تظل متصلة بالإنترنت حتى بعد وقوع كارثة. للتأكد من أن كل شيء على ما يرام، تحتاج إدارة ويكيميديا التقنية لإجراء اختبار مدروس. وهذا الاختبار سيظهر إذا ما كان يمكنهم التبديل بين مراكز البيانات. ويتطلب ذلك من العديد من الفرق الاستعداد للاختبار وأن يكونوا جاهزين لإصلاح أي مشكلات غير متوقعة.

سوف تحول الإدارة كافة حركات الاتصال إلى مركز البيانات الثانوي يوم الأربعاء 16 أبريل/نيسان 2017. أما في يوم الأربعاء 3 مايو/أيار، ستحول حركة الاتصالات مرة أخرى إلى مركز البيانات الرئيسي.

وللأسف، وبسبب بعض القيود على ميدياويكي، سيتعين وقف كافة أعمال التحرير خلال هذين الانتقالين. ونحن نعتذر عن هذا الانقطاع، وسنعمل على تقليل حدوثه في المستقبل.

سيمكنكم القراءة، ولكن لا يمكنكم التعديل، على كل مواقع الويكي لفترة قصيرة من الزمن.

• لن يمكنكم التعديل لمدة تتراوح بين 20 إلى 30 دقيقة يوم الأربعاء 19 أبريل/نيسان ويوم الأربعاء 3 مايو/أيار. سوف يبدأ هذا الاختبار في الساعة 14:00 ت ع م (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST).
• إذا حاولتم تعديل أو حفظ أي شيء في تلك الأوقات، فسوف ترون رسالة خطأ. نأمل أن لا تضيع أية تعديلات خلال تلك الدقائق، ولكن لا يسعنا أن نضمن ذلك. إذا رأيتم رسالة الخطأ، يرجى الانتظار حتى يعود كل شيء إلى سابق عهده. وبالتالي ستقدرون على حفظ التعديلات. ولكن، من المستحسن أن تنسخوا تعديلاتكم قبل إرسالها، على سبيل الاحتياط.

الآثار الأخرى:

• الأعمال في الخلفية ستكون بطيئة وبعضها قد يتوقف. قد لا تحدث الروابط الشبكية الحمراء بالسرعة المعتادة. لو أنشأتم مقالة مربوطة بالفعل بمكان آخر، سيظل الرابط الشبكي أحمر اللون لفترة أطول من المعتاد. كما سنضطر لوقف بعض النصوص البرمجية طويلة الأجل.
• كما سيكون هناك فترة وقف للتكويد خلال الأسبوعين الذين يبدآن بتاريخ 17 أبريل/نيسان و1 مايو/أيار 2017. لن تستخدم الأكواد البرمجية الغير ضرورية في هذه الفترة.

قد يتأجل هذا المشروع لو تطلب الأمر ذلك. يمكنكم الاطلاع على الجدول الزمني المحدد على wikitech.wikimedia.org سوف نعلن عن أية تغييرات تطرأ على الجدول. سيكون هناك المزيد من الإشعارات حول هذا الموضوع. يرجى مشاركة هذه المعلومات مع مجتمعكم. /User:Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk)

Wikidata description editing in the Wikipedia Android app

Wikidata description editing is a new experiment being rolled out on the Wikipedia app for Android. While this primarily impacts Wikidata, the changes are also addressing a concern about the mobile versions of Wikipedia, so that mobile users will be able to edit directly the descriptions shown under the title of the page and in the search results.

We began by rolling out this feature several weeks ago to a pilot group of Wikipedias (Russian, Hebrew, and Catalan), and have seen very positive results including numerous quality contributions in the form of new and updated descriptions, and a low rate of vandalism.

We are now ready for the next phase of rolling out this feature, which is to enable it in a few days for all Wikipedias except the top ten by usage within the app (i.e. except English, German, Italian, French, Spanish, Japanese, Dutch, Portuguese, Turkish, and Chinese). We will enable the feature for those languages instead at some point in the future, as we closely monitor user engagement with our expanded set of pilot communities. As always, if have any concerns, please reach out to us on wiki at the talk page for this project or by email at reading@wikimedia.org. Thanks!

السمة الجديدة لاستعراض الصفحات

Read this message in another language • رجاء ساعد في الترجمة للغتك

مرحبا،

كان فريق قراءة الوب التابع لمؤسسة ويكيميديا يعمل على تفعيل خاصية استعراض الصفحات وهي سمة تجريبية كانت تحمل سابقا اسم Hovercards، والتي كانت متاحة كخاصية اختيارية للمستخدمين مسجلو الدخول وخاصية افتراضية للمستخدمين غير مسجلي الدخول على كافة مشروعات ويكيبيديا. تقدم خاصة استعراض الصفحات استعراضا لأية مقالات مربوطة شبكية وهو ما يقدم للقراء استيعاب سريع للمقالة المرتبطة دون ترك الصفحة القائمة. نتوقع بالنسبة لهذا المشروع أن نجمع الآراء والملاحظات أثناء الأسابيع القليلة القادمة وكذلك تفعيل هذه السمة في وقت مبكر من شهر مايو/أيار 2017.

ملحوظة موجزة عن التطبيق:

• بالنسبة للمستخدمين مسجلي الدخول الذين لا يختبرون حاليا هذه السمة التجريبية، سوف تكون خاصية استعراض الصفحات غير مفعلة تلقائيا. يمكن للمستخدمين تفعيلها من صفحة تفضيلات المستخدم.
• بالنسبة للمستخدمين مسجلي الدخول، سوف تكون السمة مفعلة تلقائيا. يمكن للمستخدمين وقفها في أي وقت شاءوا عن طريق مربع الإعدادات الذي يعرض لكل حالة استعراض.
• بالنسبة للمستخدمين الذين يستخدمون نبيطة النوافذ المنبثقة الخاصة بالتنقل، لن يمكنكم تفعيل سمة استعراض الصفحات أثناء استخدام النوافذ المنبثقة الخاصة بالتنقل. لو كنت ترغب في تجربة سمة استعراض الصفحات، تأكد أولا أنك قد أوقفت نبيطة النوافذ المنبثقة الخاصة بالتنقل قبل أن تفعل سمة استعراض الصفحات.

يمكنك الاطلاع على المزيد عن هذه السمة وكذلك الاختبارات التي استعنا بها في تقييم مستوى أداءها، ويمكنك تفعيل هذه السمة من صفحة السمات التجريبية ويمكنك أيضا تقديم آراءك وملاحظاتك أو طرح أسئلتك على صفحة النقاش.

منذ أن أرسل فريق المحرر المرئي النشرة الإخبارية الأخيرة، أمضى الفريق أغلب الوقت مقدما الدعم إلى نمط محرر نصوص الويكي لعام 2017 والذي أصبح متاحا داخل المحرر المرئي كسمة تجريبية وكذلك إضافة أداة عرض الاختلافات مرئيا الجديدة. لوحة العمل الخاصة بهذه الأمور متاحة على فابريكاتور. يمكنك الاطلاع على الروابط الشبكية لقائمة الأعمال التي انتهى العمل عليها كل أسبوع على mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings. أولويات الفريق الحالية هي تصويب المشكلات التقنية وتقديم الدعم لمحرر نصوص الويكي لعام 2017 المقدم بصفته سمة تجريبية وكذلك تحسين أداة الاختلافات المرئية.

أحدث التغييرات

• متاح الآن نمط تحرير نصوص الويكي الجديد كسمة تجريبية على أجهزة سطح المكتب. محرر نصوص الويكي 2017 يحتوي على نفس شريط الأدوات الموجود في المحرر المرئي ويمكن استخدام خدمة إضافة اقتباس وأدوات أخرى حديثة. اذهب إلى Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures كي تفعل خاصية ⧼Visualeditor-preference-newwikitexteditor-label⧽.
• أداة اختلافات مرئية جديدة متاحة الآن في نمط العرض المرئي للمحرر المرئي. يمكنك التبديل بين عرض الاختلافات مستخدما نصوص الويكي والعرض المرئي. سوف تضاف المزيد من السمات لاحقا. يمكن في المستقبل أن تدمج هذه الأداة في مكونات ميدياويكي الأخرى. [8]
• أضاف الفريق دعم عرض أكثر من عمود لقوائم الحواشي. يمكن للكتلة البرمجية <references /> أن تعرض آليا قوائم الحواشي الطويلة في أعمدة على الشاشات العريضة. هذا الأمر يسهل قراءة الحواشي. يمكنك طلب دعم الأعمدة المتعددة على موقع الويكي الخاص بك. [9]
• يمكنك الآن أن تستخدم خاصية متصفح الوب الذي تستخدمه كي تغير من اتجاه الكتابة داخل نمط نصوص الويكي الجديد. هذا الأمر يحمل أهمية خاصة للمستخدمين الذين يكتبون اللغات التي تكتب من اليمين إلى اليسار مثل اللغة الأردية أو العبرية الذين يتعين عليهم كتابة نصوص جافا سكريبت أو سي إس إس. يمكنك استخدام Command+Shift+X أو Control+Shift+X لتغير اتجاه الكتابة. [10]
• أصبحت الطريقة التي تبدل بها بين نمط التحرير المرئي ونمط التحرير بنصوص الويكي الآن متماثلة. توجد قائمة منسدلة تعرض الخيارين الاثنين. هذا الأمر الآن متشابها أثناء التعديل باستخدام الحواسيب المكتبية أو الأجهزة المحمولة وكذلك داخل الأشياء التي يدمج فيها التعديل مثل تطبيق Flow. [11]
• نقلنا بند التصنيفات من الجزء الأعلى من قائمة خيارات الصفحة (حينما تضغط على أيقونة "الهامبرغر") للوصول إليه سريعا. [12] كما توجد الآن في ذات المكان سمة "القوالب المستخدمة على هذه الصفحة". [13]
• يمكنك الآن أن تستحدث وسوم <chem> (في بعض الأحيان تستخدم في صورة <ce>) للصيغ الكيميائية من داخل المحرر المرئي. [14]
• يمكن ضبط الجداول كي تكون قابلة للطي أو غير قابلة للطي. [15]
• تضم قائمة رمز الآن رموز مخصصة لمقاطع اللغات الأصلية الكندية وكذلك علامات اقتباس الزوايا (‹› و ⟨⟩). يتوجه الفريق بالشكر للمطور البرمجي المتطوع، Tpt. [16]
• تسبب عطل فني في حدوث تضارب في تعديل أقسام الصفحات مما أدى إلى محو باقي الصفحة. هذا الأمر تم تصويبه الآن. يتوجه إليكم الفريق بالأسف لحدوث هذا الأمر. [17]
• يوجد الآن اختصار لوحة مفاتيح لإدراج اقتباسات: Control+Shift+K على أجهزة الحاسوب أو Command+Shift+K على أجهزة ماك. هذا الأمر يستند إلى اختصار لوحة المفاتيح لإضافة روابط وهو Control+K أو Command+K على الترتيب. [18]

تغييرات مستقبلية

• يعمل الفريق حاليا على تصميم أداة لتظليل بنية الجملة البرمجية. سوف تظلل الأداة الأزواج المتشابهة من وسوم <ref> وأنواع أخرى من بنيات الجمل البرمجية الخاصة بنصوص الويكي. سوف يمكنك تفعليها أو تعطيلها. سوف تصبح متوفرة في نمط نصوص الويكي المدمج في المحرر المرئي ربما في نهاية سنة 2017. [19]
• سوف يتغير نوع الأزرار المستخدم في أظهر معاينة وأظهر التعديلات والانتهاء من تعديل ما على كافة محرري نصوص الويكي التي تدعمها مؤسسة ويكيميديا. سوف تستعين الأزرار الجديدة بواجهة المستخدم OOjs UI. سوف تكون الأزرار أكبر وأوضح لونا وسهلة القراءة. سوف تظل الوسوم المبينة عليها كما هي. يمكنك اختبار الزر الجديد عن طريق تعديل صفحة ما وإضافة &ooui=1 إلى نهاية معرف ارتباط الصفحة، مثل هذا المثال: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Sandbox?action=edit&ooui=1 لن يكون المظهر السابق متوفرا من الآن، حتى حينما تتغير نصوص سي إس إس المحلية. [20]
• سوف نرفع محرر نصوص الويكي القديم 2006 في وقت لاحق من هذه السنة. يستخدم هذا المحرر حوالي 0.03% من المحررين النشطاء. طالع قائمة بأدوات التحرير على mediawiki.org لو كنت غير متأكد ما هو الإصدار الذي تستخدمه. [21]
• إن لم تكن تقرأ هذه النشرة بلغتك المفضلة، نرجو منك مساعدتنا في الترجمة! اشترك في القائمة البريدية للمترجمين أو اتصل بنا مباشرة، حتى يمكننا إعلامك بموعد صدور العدد الجديد حينما يصبح جاهزا. شكرًا لك!

Prototype for editing Wikidata infoboxes on Wikipedia

Hello,

I’m sorry for writing in English. It’d be great if someone could translate this message if necessary.

One of the most requested features for Wikidata is to enable editing of Wikidata’s data directly from Wikipedia, so the editors can continue their workflow without switching websites.

The Wikidata development team has been working on a tool to achieve this goal: fill and edit the Wikipedia infoboxes with information from Wikidata, directly on Wikipedia, via the Visual Editor.

We already asked for feedback in 2015, and collected some interesting ideas which we shared with you in this thesis. Now we would like to present to you our first prototype and collect your feedback, in order to improve and continue the development of this feature.

We present this work to you very early, so we can include your feedback before and all along the development. You are the core users of this feature, so we want to make sure that it fits your needs and editing processes.

You will find the prototype, description of the features, and a demo video, on this page. Feel free to add any comment or feedback on the talk page. The page is currently not translated in every languages, but you can add your contribution by helping to translate it.

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to follow all the discussions on Wikipedia, so if you want to be sure that your feedback is read, please add it on the Wikidata page, in your favorite language. Thanks for your understanding.

Thanks, Lea Lacroix (WMDE)

m:Requests for comment/Global centralnotice for the blockade of the Turkish government

Hi, you are invited to participate in the discussion on the proposal to make a banner through m: centralnotice to inform more people around the world about what the Turkish government has done about Wikipedia, ie all the language versions of Wikipedia are You are obscured, so in Turkey it is impossible to view the * .wikipedia.org site. To hope that the Turkish government will remove the block, it is necessary to raise awareness of this fact around the world because it is important to succeed in this mission because Wikipedia can not be seen in Turkey. With this message also for those interested, I invite him to sign the Wikimedian appeal. If you have any questions or questions do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks best regards. --Samuele2002 (Talk!) 21:27، 17 مايو 2017 (ت ع م)

Photos of Syria on Wikimedia Commons

For years, Syria has been the scene of a bloody civil war resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths, millions of refugees, and the destruction of entire cities. The recent image donation by the Nationaal Museum van Wereldculturen (the National Museum of World Cultures) in the Netherlands shows another Syria. Many of these photos were taken in the 1980s and show scenes of daily life and images and cities not yet devastated by war. Other images show objects from the collection of the museum. Together, they form a valuable resource on Syria for the various Wikimedia projects. The upload consists of 352 photos in total and can be accessed here. It coincides with a photo exhibition in the NMvW on Aleppo. The upload was part of the project The Netherlands and the World, which aims to make accessible Dutch collections on non-European heritage.

Accessible editing buttons

كان مطوري ميدياويكي منشغلين في عمل بطيء الخطا يهدف إلى تحسين مستوى الاستخدام لذوي الاحتياجات الخاصة لواجهة المستخدم. الخطوة التالية في هذه المرحلة هي تغيير مظهر بعض الأزرار والذي قد يؤثر بالسلب على بعض النصوص البرمجية للمستخدمين (تلك التي لم تحدث أو لا تحظى بصيانة) ونبيطاتهم.

يمكنك مشاهدة كلا من الشكلين القديم والجديد الآن واستخدامهما. لن يلاحظ أغلب المستخدمين إلا أن بعض الأزرار أكبر قليلا وتستخدم ألوان مختلفة.

• مقارنة المظهر القديم والجديد
• 
  الأزرار قبل التغيير
• 
  الأزرار بعد التغيير

إلا أن هذا التغيير يؤثر أيضا على بعض النصوص البرمجية للمستخدمين ونبيطاتهم. لسوء الحظ بعض من هذه الأمور قد لا تعمل كما ينبغي في النظام الجديد. لو كان لديك أية نصوص برمجية لمستخدم أو نبيطات تستخدم في التعديل، يرجى مطالعة mw:Contributors/Projects/Accessible editing buttons لتطلع على المزيد من المعلومات المتعلقة بكيفية اختبار النصوص البرمجية الخاصة بك وإصلاحها. يمكن اختبار النصوص البرمجية المتقادمة وتصويبها الآن.

سوف يطبق هذا التغيير على موقع الويكي هذا ربما يوم الثلاثاء، 18 يوليو/تموز 2017. يرجى إضافة ملحوظة على mw:Talk:Contributors/Projects/Accessible editing buttons لو كنت تريد المساعدة.

Page Previews (Hovercards) update

آخر أخبار استعراض الصفحات (Hovercards)

مرحبا،

آخر أخبار مستوى تقدم العمل الجاري لتفعيل استعراض الصفحات (التي حملت سابقا اسم Hovercards) على هذا المشروع. تقدم خاصية استعراض الصفحات لمحة سريعة لأي مقالة مرتبطة شبكيا، وهو ما يعطي القراء فهما سريعا للمقالة المرتبطة دون مغادرة الصفحة الحالية. حسب ما ذكرنا في ديسمبر، نحن نستعد لرفع السمة من المرحلة التجريبية وجعلها الخاصية الافتراضية للمستخدمين غير مسجلي الدخول. قمنا مؤخرا بتنفيذ تحديث ضخم على الكود البرمجي والذي يتغلب على أكبر الأعطال البرمجية.

بسبب بعض المشكلات المتعلقة بأدواتنا، أرجأنا التنفيذ لعدة أشهر. والآن نحن على استعداد أخيرا لتنفيذ هذه السمة. سوف تكون خاصية استعراض الصفحات مغلقة افتراضيا ومتاحة في صفحة تفضيلات المستخدم للمستخدمين مسجلي الدخول في الأسبوع الذي يبدأ بيوم 24 يوليو. سوف تكون السمة مفعلة افتراضيا لمستخدمي السمات التجريبية الحاليين وكذلك المستخدمين غير مسجلي الدخول. لو كنت تود استعراض السمة، يمكنك تفعليها لتكون سمة تجريبية. لمزيد من المعلومات طالع استعراض الصفحات. يمكن ترك الأسئلة على صفحة النقاش بلغتك المفضلة.

شكرا لكم مرة أخرى.

جيمس_ديوك_ميسون/James Duke Mason

Hello. I just thought I'd let you know that the page for

/James Duke Mason/جيمس_ديوك_ميسون

was deleted from the English Wikipedia due to lack of notability and self-promotion issues (see [22]). He had been successfully inserting promotional references to himself for many years, and I noticed he also had a Arabic page when I was cleaning those up. I don't know what the Arabic policies are around notability and promotion, but I don't think it would hurt to give you a head's up.
