Request for Temporary (3 month) Adminship

Hello. I apologize for writing in English; I am not fluent in Uyghur. I am a VRT Permissions Agent and I would like to perform copyright cleanup on the images hosted on Uyghur Wikipedia. To do this, I require the administrator rights to delete files that violate copyright law. Since there are about 240 images that need to be reviewed, I believe that temporary adminship will be sufficient to complete this task

Upcoming vote on the revised Enforcement Guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

More languages • Please help translate to your language

Hello all,

In mid-January 2023, the Enforcement Guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct will undergo a second community-wide ratification vote. This follows the March 2022 vote, which resulted in a majority of voters supporting the Enforcement Guidelines. During the vote, participants helped highlight important community concerns. The Board’s Community Affairs Committee requested that these areas of concern be reviewed.

The volunteer-led Revisions Committee worked hard reviewing community input and making changes. They updated areas of concern, such as training and affirmation requirements, privacy and transparency in the process, and readability and translatability of the document itself.

The revised Enforcement Guidelines can be viewed here, and a comparison of changes can be found here.

How to vote?

Beginning January 17, 2023, voting will be open. This page on Meta-wiki outlines information on how to vote using SecurePoll.

Who can vote?

The eligibility requirements for this vote are the same as for the Wikimedia Board of Trustees elections. See the voter information page for more details about voter eligibility. If you are an eligible voter, you can use your Wikimedia account to access the voting server.

What happens after the vote?

Votes will be scrutinized by an independent group of volunteers, and the results will be published on Wikimedia-l, the Movement Strategy Forum, Diff and on Meta-wiki. Voters will again be able to vote and share concerns they have about the guidelines. The Board of Trustees will look at the levels of support and concerns raised as they look at how the Enforcement Guidelines should be ratified or developed further.

Enabling Content and Section translation tool in Uyghur Wikipedia

Hello Friends!

Apologies as this message is not in your native language, Please help translate to your language.

The WMF Language team is pleased to let you know that we will like to enable the Section and Content translation tool in Uyghur Wikipedia. For this, our team will love you to read about the tool and test the new Section Translation tool so you can:

• Give us your feedback

• Ask us questions

• Tell us how to improve it

Below is background information about the tools and how you can test the Section translation tool.

Background information

Content Translation has been a successful tool for editors to create content in their language. More than one million articles have been created across all languages since the tool was released in 2015. However, the tool is not out of beta in Uyghur Wikipedia, limiting the discoverability of the tool and its use and blocking the enablement of the Section translation in your Wikipedia

Section Translation extends the capabilities of Content Translation to support mobile devices. On mobile, the tool will:

• Guide you to translate one section at a time in order to expand existing articles or create new ones

• Make it easy to transfer knowledge across languages anytime from your mobile device

We plan to enable the tools on Uyghur Wikipedia in the coming week if there are no objections from your community. After it is enabled, we’ll monitor the content created with the tools and process all the feedback. In any case, feel free to raise any concerns or questions you may already have as a reply to this message or on the project talk page

Try the Section translation tool

Before the enablement, you can try the current implementation of the tool in our testing instance. Once it is enabled on Uyghur Wikipedia, you’ll have access to https://ug.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ContentTranslation with your mobile device. You can select an article to translate, and machine translation will be provided as a starting point for editors to improve.

Provide feedback

Please provide feedback about Section translation on the project talk page. We want to  hear about your impressions on

• The section translation tool

• What do you think about our plans to enable it

• Your ideas for improving the tool

Thanks and we look forward to your feedback and questions.

To what extent have native speakers been able to test the automatic translations made by the tool? Machine translation of Uyghur is generally not all that great, and I'm a bit skeptical regarding how this will affect UgWiki Red-tailed hawk (سۆزلىشىش) 03:16, 4 فېۋرال 2023 (UTC)

Pinging User:UOzurumba (WMF) Red-tailed hawk (سۆزلىشىش) 07:38, 5 فېۋرال 2023 (UTC)

Thank you, Red-tailed hawk, for your question; the Machine translation support in the Content and Section translation tools is meant to be a starting point to aid them in translating articles efficiently; this is to say that a translator can not publish an initial machine translation without reviewing and editing it.

So, there is a mechanism in content translation that measures the level of modification a user makes to the machine translation provided before it is published. In other words, the system notes how many words were added, removed and modified in percentage, which can be adjusted in your Wikipedia to improve the quality of translation if there is a need for that.

With the mechanism in place, your community can monitor the quality of content created with the Machine translation and adjust the machine translation limit (make the machine translation limit more strict if necessary). The above measure ensures that translated articles meet the required quality and takes care of your worries. Also, translators can choose the "Start with an empty paragraph option" when translating.

So far, UgWiki has translated 87 articles using Content translation. Bringing it out of beta and enabling the Section translation will make the tool more discoverable and increase content in Uyghur Wikipedia.

I hope this helped answer your question

UOzurumba (WMF) (سۆزلىشىش) 18:08, 6 فېۋرال 2023 (UTC)

Hello, Red-tailed hawk; the WMF Language team would like to enable the Content and Section translation tool this week for your Wikipedia since there are no objections.

Thank you!

UOzurumba (WMF) (سۆزلىشىش) 16:48, 14 فېۋرال 2023 (UTC)

I am generally very skeptical of the utility of these tools if the machine translations are not all that good and would likely serve (on this wiki) to create more damage to the project through improper machine translation than benefit by ease-of-use by native speakers. For that reason, I lean in opposition to the broader implementation of the tool. If you would like the broader community to weigh in, discussion in the Uyghur language is going to be necessary; much of the Uyghur world has limited or no understanding of English, and low-quality machine translations will lose the nuance of things like this.

Community feedback-cycle about updating the Wikimedia Terms of Use starts

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

More languages • Please help translate to your language

Hello everyone,

Wikimedia Foundation Legal Department is organizing a feedback-cycle with community members to discuss updating the Wikimedia Terms of Use.

The Terms of Use (ToU) are the legal terms that govern the use of websites hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation. We will be gathering your feedback on a draft proposal from February through April. The draft will be translated into several languages, with written feedback accepted in any language.

This update comes in response to several things:

• Implementing the Universal Code of Conduct
• Updating project text to the Creative Commons BY-SA 4.0 license
• Proposal for better addressing undisclosed paid editing
• Bringing our terms in line with current and recently passed laws affecting the Foundation, including the European Digital Services Act

As part of the feedback cycle two office hours will be held, the first on March 2, the second on April 4.

For further information, please consult:

• The proposed update of the ToU by comparison
• The page for your feedback
• Information about the office hours

Your wiki will be in read only soon

The Wikimedia Foundation tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers. This will make sure that Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.

All traffic will switch on 1 March. The test will start at 14:00 UTC.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop while the switch is made. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.

You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.

• You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Wednesday 1 March 2023.
• If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.

Other effects:

• Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped. Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped.
• We expect the code deployments to happen as any other week. However, some case-by-case code freezes could punctually happen if the operation require them afterwards.
• GitLab will be unavailable for about 90 minutes.

This project may be postponed if necessary. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this. A banner will be displayed on all wikis 30 minutes before this operation happens. Please share this information with your community.

Copyright issues on the Uyghur Wikipedia

The vast majority of images on the Uyghur Wikipedia are not provided with computer-readable license tags, which are required by WMF:Resolution:Licensing policy because we do not have an exemption doctrine policy. As an administrator, I have been working over the past several months to move public domain files from this Wiki to Commons, as well as to delete clear violations of copyrights. I will be attempting to complete this work this month; if any files are not tagged with a valid template or otherwise moved to Commons by the end of the month (UTC), then those files will be deleted as presumptive violations of copyright. I will do my utmost over the next month to try to figure out which files are in the public domain or can otherwise be kept under the WMF resolution, but, in the event that there is no evidence by the end of the month that a file is uploaded under a valid free license, then that file will be deleted.
