I am from Wikipedia in French and I helped {{u|B722N}} with AWB. I noticed that on this wiki, people use links to the English Wikipedia but make them appear as lgwiki links (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[:en:2021 Ugandan general election|kulonda kwa bonna mu Uganda okwa 2021]]</nowiki></code>). This is not a good long-term solution, as these links will always take readers to the English Wikipedia, even after an article is created on the Luganda Wikipedia. The use of [[:en:Template:Interlanguage link]] can avoid this. It will create a red link that also shows links to other Wikipedias using their language codes (for example, the link above would look like this: [[kulonda kwa bonna mu Uganda okwa 2021]] <small>[<nowiki/>[[:en:2021 Ugandan general election|en]]]</small> ). When the article is created on this wiki, the link will turn blue and the links to other languages will disappear. A bot is needed to replace the template with normal links once the article exists, but this can be done later (you may ask the owner of bots doing this on other wikis to do the same here). The latest version of the template uses modules, but it is possible to create a version that only uses templates for simplicity. Notify me if you need help you to create a basic template if needed, and I have an AWB bot that can replace the links to enwiki with the new template when it will be created. Just mind that I am not competent in lua modules, and I don't speak a word of Luganda.

On frwiki we have [[:fr:Projet:Scripts et gadgets/Notices/CatRename|CatRename]] that can rename categories in semi-automated mode for any user (it takes control of the user account and makes up to 250 edits per 24 hours every 5 seconds). I don't know if there is an equivalent on enwiki. ::. ::Anyway, what lgwiki needs is bot owners fluent in Luganda that also know well HTML, CSS, JS, etc. ::I know this can seem difficult to find, but there is never enough bots. Even on frwiki we don't have enough, and the backlog of wikicode, typography, lint errors, etc. is huge. ::On the other hand, bots cannot do everything, and sometimes in complex cases, thousands of articles need human intervention, and only a few a ready to do it. ::Do not try to do everything at once, it is never possible. Focus on one issue at a time, then move to the next. (don't worry, there will always be a technical issue somewhere). ::. ::I'll look how to import [[:en:Template:Interlanguage link]] here, with the needed metatemplates and modules, then I may ask for a bot status to implement it, if you have only 9,000 pages and 5,000 articles, it'll be a piece of cake. ::It is best to keep the templates in English for now, focus rather on the article content (keeping red links will encourage article creation). ::Parameters can be in Luganda, but should also have aliases in English. ::Template names can also be in Luganda, but they should be redirects to templates with an English name. ::You can trust me, I imported some templates on frwiki from enwiki, and translating the metatemplates names is not a good idea, same for parameters names. ::. ::I just had a look at [[Special:Statistics]] and you only have ONE admin, who is not even a person ({{u|Abuse filter}}), and no [[:en:WP:bureaucrat|bureaucrat]] to give user rights, so you must rely on global bureaucrats I guess. ::This is a real problem, but be careful to take competent people for these tasks. ::I have been an admin (and bureaucrat) on a wikia I created [https://alphabettysaga.fandom.com/fr/wiki/Alphabetty_Wiki] and also on the version in English [https://alphabettysaga.fandom.com/wiki/Alphabetty_Wiki], so I have some knowledge about it and may ask for the user right here to help with some edits, but I'm not planning to do much, and I definitely don't want to be the only one. ::Bureaucrats are essential to the smooth running of wikis.

'''The Change:'''<br /> Currently, many templates pull electoral maps from Wikidata using the property [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]], combined with the qualifier [[:d:Property:P180|P180]]: [[:d:Q19571328|Q19571328]].

I am from Wikipedia in French and I helped {{u|B722N}} with AWB. I noticed that on this wiki, people use links to the English Wikipedia but make them appear as lgwiki links (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[:en:2021 Ugandan general election|kulonda kwa bonna mu Uganda okwa 2021]]</nowiki></code>). This is not a good long-term solution, as these links will always take readers to the English Wikipedia, even after an article is created on the Luganda Wikipedia. The use of [[:en:Template:Interlanguage link]] can avoid this. It will create a red link that also shows links to other Wikipedias using their language codes (for example, the link above would look like this: [[kulonda kwa bonna mu Uganda okwa 2021]] <small>[<nowiki/>[[:en:2021 Ugandan general election|en]]]</small> ). When the article is created on this wiki, the link will turn blue and the links to other languages will disappear. A bot is needed to replace the template with normal links once the article exists, but this can be done later (you may ask the owner of bots doing this on other wikis to do the same here). The latest version of the template uses modules, but it is possible to create a version that only uses templates for simplicity. Notify me if you need help you to create a basic template if needed, and I have an AWB bot that can replace the links to enwiki with the new template when it will be created. Just mind that I am not competent in lua modules, and I don't speak a word of Luganda. Best regards, [[User:SyntaxTerror|SyntaxTerror]] ([[User talk:SyntaxTerror|talk]]) 13:36, 8 Gwakutaano(Muzigo) 2026 (UTC) :Thank you so much for the help, @[[User:SyntaxTerror|SyntaxTerror]], that you gave me on AWB. It was very helpful. :If possible, we also request you to train us or point us to someone (or a community) that can help us learn how to use AutoWikiBrowser (AWB), because the tutorials online both on YouTube and on Wikimedia Commons—do not go in depth on how to use it. :We certainly need your help as a community to create the basic template(s), as well as other templates. :As the Luganda community, where the majority of members are part of the Wikimedia Community User Group Uganda, we are facing multiple challenges, including: :# Translating categories and templates :# Automating repetitive tasks such as fixing categorization, correcting typos, and fixing article titles that were created in uppercase, among other issues :# Translating and creating templates :# A lack of local admins, and those we have do not know what to do :# Some gadgets, bots, and tools are not activated on this Wikipedia, and we don't know where to request them<br /> :As a result, most of the work being done by volunteers on this Wikipedia is largely trial and error try and fail, try again until you get it right. And if they fail for good, they become demotivated and stop trying. Getting someone or a community that would help us improve would be highly appreciated. :Some of the active Luganda community members who are training others on how to contribute to the Luganda Wikipedia, and who can also speak and write Luganda fluently, include: :# @[[User:Ssemmanda will|Ssemmanda will]], :# @[[User:Solomon Suubi|Solomon Suubi]], :# @[[User:Nambogo Catharine|Nambogo Catharine]], :# @[[User:Ssenkungu ivan|Ssenkungu ivan]] :# @[[User:Geossegawa|Geossegawa]] :Thank you so much for reaching out.

On frwiki we have [[:fr:Projet:Scripts et gadgets/Notices/CatRename|CatRename]] that can rename categories in semi-automated mode for any user (it takes control of the user account and makes up to 250 edits per 24 hours every 5 seconds). I don't know if there is an equivalent on enwiki. ::. ::Anyway, what lgwiki needs is bot owners fluent in Luganda that also know well HTML, CSS, JS, etc. ::I know this can seem difficult to find, but there is never enough bots. Even on frwiki we don't have enough, and the backlog of wikicode, typography, lint errors, etc. is huge. ::On the other hand, bots cannot do everything, and sometimes in complex cases, thousands of articles need human intervention, and only a few a ready to do it. ::Do not try to do everything at once, it is never possible. Focus on one issue at a time, then move to the next. (don't worry, there will always be a technical issue somewhere). ::. ::I'll look how to import [[:en:Template:Interlanguage link]] here, with the needed metatemplates and modules, then I may ask for a bot status to implement it, if you have only 9,000 pages and 5,000 articles, it'll be a piece of cake. ::It is best to keep the templates in English for now, focus rather on the article content (keeping red links will encourage article creation). ::Parameters can be in Luganda, but should also have aliases in English. ::Template names can also be in Luganda, but they should be redirects to templates with an English name. ::You can trust me, I imported some templates on frwiki from enwiki, and translating the metatemplates names is not a good idea, same for parameters names. ::. ::I just had a look at [[Special:Statistics]] and you only have ONE admin, who is not even a person ({{u|Abuse filter}}), and no [[:en:WP:bureaucrat|bureaucrat]] to give user rights, so you must rely on global bureaucrats I guess. ::This is a real problem, but be careful to take competent people for these tasks. ::I have been an admin (and bureaucrat) on a wikia I created [https://alphabettysaga.fandom.com/fr/wiki/Alphabetty_Wiki] and also on the version in English [https://alphabettysaga.fandom.com/wiki/Alphabetty_Wiki], so I have some knowledge about it and may ask for the user right here to help with some edits, but I'm not planning to do much, and I definitely don't want to be the only one. ::Bureaucrats are essential to the smooth running of wikis.

The intent is to provide readers with options to research further into topics not yet covered by English Wikipedia. The intent is ''not'' to catalogue every foreign-language article; while there is no general consensus when this template should be used, or what languages should be linked when an article missing in English is present in several other language Wikipedias, more than 2 or 3 links are rarely needed. This template adds additional links to one or more foreign-language Wikipedias to the end of a [[WP:RED|red link]] in order to both provide readers additional information provided by those languages and give editors additional resources when starting a new article on the topic. If and when an article on the red-linked topic is created, this template will only show the normal blue link to the page (i.e. the foreign-language links will be removed); the template can then be replaced by the [[H:WIKILINK|standard wikilink]], either manually or by [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Cewbot|a bot account]]. Alternatively, the template provides a link to [[WP:WD|WikiData]].{{efn|See the {{para|qid}} parameter. This functionality previously existed as its own separate template, {{tl|Interlanguage link Wikidata}}.}} This template should not be used when an article on a topic already exists, {{em|except}} when the link is a [[WP:redirect|redirect]] pointing to an article that [[:Category:Redirects with possibilities|potentially could be changed]] into its own article. See {{slink||Limitations and known issues}} for other restrictions and caveats. ==Usage== :''Note: all examples on this page will use {{tnull|ill}}, the main [[Wikipedia:Shortcut|template shortcut]] for this template'' {{t|ill}} takes at a minimum two parameters (the "Basic syntax") for linking to a single foreign language, but it can be expanded to include multiple languages (see {{section link|List_of_Wikipedias#Wikipedia_editions}} for the full list of codes). Formatting of the link (e.g. bold, italics, quotes) and display options (e.g. [[WP:PIPE|piping links]]) are described in the {{slink||Parameters}} and {{slink||Examples}} sections below. ;Basic syntax (one language, same title): :{{tlc|ill|''English article title'' |''language code''}} When only a single foreign language link is required and the title at the target language is the same as in English, all that is required in the template is the name of the article and the language code. For example, the German rapper Estikay does not have an article on the English Wikipedia but there is one on the German Wikipedia; to indicate that we would use {{tlc|ill|Estikay|de|_show_result=yes}}. ;Basic syntax (one language, different title) :{{tlc|ill|''English article title''|''language code''|''title in foreign language''}} When only a single foreign language link is required, but the title at the target language is {{em|not}} the same as in English, the title of the foreign language article needs to be included. This often occurs an article title contains a word that would normally be translated, for example {{tlc|ill|Hooglede town hall|nl|Gemeentehuis van Hooglede|_show_result=yes}}. ;Two (or more) languages, same title :<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>ill|''English article title''|''language 1 code''||''language 2 code''||''language 3 code''||...}}</code> If there are two or more languages using the same title as the proposed English redlink, the foreign language names are not required. <code><nowiki>{{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}} Note: Redirects appear as blue links while foreign-language links are still shown. For example, {{-r|casa}} is a redirect and thus <code><nowiki>{{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}. ;Two (or more) languages, different title :{{tlc|ill|''English article title''|''language 1 code''|''Title in language 1''|''language 2 code''|''Title in language 2''|...}} If there are two or more languages, but with a different title as the proposed English redlink, the foreign language names are required {{tlc|ill|Ropsha Palace|de|Ropscha-Palast|fr|Palais de Ropcha|ru|Ропшинский дворец|_show_result=yes}} === Alternatives === Please see [[Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links]] for several ways you can add interlanguage links, of which this template is only one method, albeit the recommended one. For use at the top of a section in the role where a {{t|Further}} link might normally be used, the template {{t|Further ill}} is available with similar functionality to this template for linking foreign Wikipedia articles. ==Parameters== Parameters for this template come in four groups: * A: one parameter (always required) to specify the page title of the (as yet) non-existent article in English; this normally appears as a [[WP:Red link|red link]] * B: parameters specifying the foreign Wikipedia page(s), either by [[meta:Table of Wikimedia projects|Wikipedia language code]] and pagename (these come in pairs), or by a [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]] (a single id may link many foreign Wikipedia pages) * C: optional link text, for altering what text is used for the link * D: optional stylistic parameters, for modifying how the link (or links) appear on the page '''group A''' – a '''page title''' of a proposed new article for English Wikipedia; should comply with [[WP:Article title]] policy. * {{para|1}} – the proposed page title. This must be a [[WP:RED|red link]] or a [[Template:R with possibilities|redirect with possibilities]]. (If it isn't, do not use this template.) '''Required.''' {{anchor|paired positional parameters}} '''group B''' – specification of corresponding foreign Wikipedia page(s); up to 16 pairs of ''lang-code + page-title'', or else a single [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]]. Either qid *or* positional param {{para|2}} '''must''' be specified. * '''Paired positional params''' {{para|2}} and {{para|3}}, through {{para|32}} and {{para|33}}; the second item of each pair may be empty if the foreign pagename is the same as the param 1: ** <code>2</code> and <code>3</code> – the [[m:Template:List of language names ordered by code|language code]] and page to link to article(s) on [[List of Wikipedias|foreign Wikipedia]](s). '''Required''' unless {{para|qid}} is used. ** <code>4</code> and <code>5</code> – a second lang-code and page to link to on a foreign wikipedia. Optional. If 5 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. ** <code>6</code> and <code>7</code> – a third lang-code/page pair, to link a foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 7 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. **: and so on, up through: ** <code>32</code> and <code>33</code> – last lang-code + page pair, to link one foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 33 is missing, it takes the value of param 1 * or '''Wikidata id''' – use of this parameter overrides any positional parameters: ** {{anchor|qid}} {{para|qid}} – the [[Wikipedia:Wikidata#Access from Wikipedia|Wikidata item identifier]] corresponding to existing article(s) on other Wikipedias. The qid param replaces all of the paired parameters listed above in this group. See [[Wikipedia:Finding a Wikidata ID]] for help in locating a qid from an existing Wikipedia article that is linked from Wikidata. Alternatively, you can search for a qid directly at Wikidata by using the search box at the top of any Wikidata page and searching for a likely label, like [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?search=Basil+of+Luni&language=en&title=Special%3ASearch&ns0=1 this ''Basil of Luni'' search]. The qid should appear in the search results. '''group C''' – '''altering link text''' changing the text of the link (named param, optional): * {{para|lt|...}} – turns the red English link into a [[WP:PIPE|piped link]] using the given text; ('lt' stands for "link text". There is no long form, i.e. you cannot use {{para|link text}}). '''group D''' – '''stylistic parameters''' for formatting the output (all named params, and all optional): * {{para|italics|yes}} – italicizes the display text (but not the language links) (Alias: <code>italic</code>) * {{para|quote|yes}} – embed the linked param 1 article name in double quotes (language links remain outside) (Alias: <code>quotes</code>) * {{para|nobold|yes}} – force language links to be [[font weight|normal weight]], even if the template is embedded in a line of bolded text * {{para|valign|...}} – values: {{pval|sub}} (below the baseline), {{pval|sup}} (above the baseline), or {{pval|ib}} (none). (Alias: <code>v</code>) * {{para|preserve|yes}} – force language links to display even if param 1 points to an existing article (Alias: <code>display</code>) * {{anchor|short}}{{para|short|yes}} – when {{para|qid}} is in use, shorten the link from '[{{blue|wikidata}}]' to just '[{{blue|wd}}]'. (Alias: <code>s</code>) ==Examples== ===Altering link text=== To create a [[WP:piped link|piped link]] (text displayed that is different from the title of the page to which the text links), use the {{para|lt}} parameter (for '''l'''ink '''t'''ext). This is mainly useful if [[WP:disambiguation|disambiguation]] is necessary, but can be used for any reason where a piped link would make sense. *{{tlc|ill|David Cannon McConnel|lt{{=}}David|qid{{=}}Q21536696}} (used in the phrase "David and Mary McConnel" in [[Bulimba House]]) *{{tlc|ill|Capture of Berlin (1813)|lt{{=}}1813 Capture of Berlin|ru|Атака Берлина отрядами Чернышёва и Теттенборна (1813)|_show_result=yes}} *{{tlc|ill|Takashi Onishi (scientist)|lt{{=}}Takashi Onishi|ja|大西隆|_show_result=yes}} ([[Takashi Onishi]] is a football player) *{{tlc|ill|Yuri Smirnov (physicist)|lt{{=}}Yuri Smirnov|ru|Смирнов, Юрий Николаевич (физик)|_show_result=yes}} ([[Yuri Smirnov]] is a disambiguation page) *{{tlc|ill|Grünbein (Argentine town)|es|Grünbein|lt{{=}}Grünbein|_show_result=yes}} In the last example above, a disambiguator is added because {{-r|Grünbein}} is a redirect, and while (like {{-r|casa}}) this will still show the language codes as {{ill|Grünbein|es}}, the redirect points to [[Durs Grünbein]] which is entirely unrelated to the Argentine town. [[MOS:CIRCULAR|Circular redirects]] are another redirect case where it may make more sense to artificially create a redlink until such time as the redirect can be converted into an article, though this is not required; see {{slink||Circular redirects}} below for more information and an example. ===Stylistic parameters=== {| class="wikitable" !Parameter !!

Add a WikiData link to a concept where no quality article could be found in any language, but normally only through InfoBoxes or similar templates. WikiData links are also useful for red link lists in user or project space, and for identification purposes and to establish the initial connection to an already established piece of infrastructure elsewhere. ; When and where not to supply a WikiData link? When several foreign-language articles about a subject exists, the general reader is much better served by you hand-picking a few quality articles, than by a WikiData link. Remember, this template is not intended to supplant the existing interlanguage link functionality ([[WP:ILLSIDEBAR]]): most readers are much more at ease with the idea to visit a foreign-language article and then using the language sidebar or drop-down to find every language covering a subject, than to navigate the WikiData user interface. ==Limitations and known issues== === Automated removal === You can remove the template when a red link turns blue, and it is no longer needed. However, there is no need to remember to do so, because [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] does this automatically for you, replacing the template with a plain wikilink. A possible downside of removing the template is loss of linkage to foreign articles in case the English Wikipedia article is later deleted. In that case, the blue wikilink will become a [[WP:REDLINK|red link]], where an {{t|ill}} template would re-emerge with visually apparent blue link(s) to foreign article(s). {{Respond|orangeexclamation|Please be aware}} [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] '''removes''' this template when it detects the target article has been created on English Wikipedia, converting {{tl|ill}} links to regular (blue) links.{{efn|name=preserve|Use {{para|preserve}} or its alias {{para|display}} to show the language links even if the English Wikipedia page exists. Using either parameter also eliminates the expensive parser function call. {{U|Cewbot}} will NOT convert this template into a regular link if either parameter is set. Cewbot will also not convert this template into a regular link if the English Wikipedia page exists but is a redirect back to the same page where the template appears; i.e. [[#Circular redirects]].}} === Circular redirects === If the topic you are trying to provide interlanguage links for already exists on English Wikipedia as a redirect, '''and this redirect points back to the article you are trying to edit''', this template might [[WP:ASTONISH|astonish]] readers; they expect a blue link to lead to an English-language article, but all they get is the same page reloaded. Attempts have been made for the {{tl|Interlanguage link}} template to automatically detect this, but currently none are functional. {{slink|Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links}} has other linking options, but if this template is to be used, the best option is to artificially create a red link using a reasonable disambiguator. For example, {{-r|Helen Reef}} points to [[Hatohobei]], so instead of using {{ill|Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}} on the Hatohobei page it may be better to use {{ill|Helen Reef (atoll)|lt=Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}}, where the editor has made up a new red link target: [[Helen Reef (atoll)]] - this phrasing should tell other editors what subject the link is intended to cover if and when created. Please use these two versions of the Hatohobei article to compare: [[Special:PermaLink/1339802168#Islands|version with a circular redirect]] ({{cross}} avoid) and [[Special:PermaLink/1339990136#Islands|version with an artificial red link]] ({{tick}} better). Do note that if an article about the atoll is written, either the artificial red link will need to be created as a redirect or the [[Hatohobei]] article will need to be edited to convert the {{tlc|ill}} call into a regular wikilink. In other words, there is no perfect solution; if the circular redirect is avoided, manual editing will be necessary if and when that redirect is expanded into a proper article, regardless of whether this template or another method is used. Interlanguage links that are circular redirects are not converted by [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] into regular links. === Expensive parser call === {{Main|Help:Template limits#Expensive parser function calls}} Avoid filling an article with dozens or hundreds of instances of this template. See {{slink||Alternatives}} for alternative ways to display interlanguage links that avoids articles that mostly consist of {{tl|ill}} links. === In other Wikipedias === The Manual of Style in Spanish Wikipedia, and perhaps others, deprecates interlanguage links in live articles, and therefore the local version of this template ([[:es:Plantilla:ill]]) is disabled for main (article) space. It still works for discussion pages, for example. === Interactions with other templates === In the [[Wikipedia:main namespace|main namespace]], when using this template with the <code>{{t|lang}}</code> template, use <code>|cat=no</code> or <code>|nocat=yes</code> to remove the hidden category that <code><nowiki>{{lang}}</nowiki></code> creates. :{{cross}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|cat=no}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|nocat=yes}}}}</nowiki></code> This template '''should not be used in [[WP:Citation templates|citation templates]]''' such as [[Help:Citation Style 1|Citation Style 1]] and [[Help:Citation Style 2|Citation Style 2]], because it includes markup that will pollute the [[COinS]] metadata they produce; see [[Wikipedia:COinS]]. === Non-existent foreign article === On Wikipedia, links to non-existent pages {{em|normally}} show as [[WP:REDLINK|red links]]. However, this functionality only works within the Wikipedia site you're viewing. There is no way for this template, or any code on Wikipedia, to check [[mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##ifexist|whether an article on another language's Wikipedia exists]]. Links to all foreign-language articles, including non-existent foreign-language articles, show as blue links when constructed. For example, both <code><nowiki>[[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]] (exists) and <code><nowiki>[[:fr:no such article|no such article]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:no such article|no such article]] (does not exist) display in the same blue color. In other words, editors should take care to ensure the language codes they use actually correspond to an existing article; {{tlc|ill|no such article|fr|_show_result=yes}} does no one any good. ==TemplateData== {{collapse top|[[Wikipedia:TemplateData|TemplateData]] documentation used by [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] and other tools}} {{TemplateData header}} <templatedata> { "params": { "1": { "label": "Article name", "description": "Name of the English Wikipedia page, or suggested name if the page does not exist", "type": "wiki-page-name", "required": true, "suggested": true }, "2": { "label": "1st language code", "description": "Language code for the 1st page in another language (Note: the 1st language code is required, unless param 'qid' is present)", "type": "line", "suggested": true }, "3": { "label": "1st page", "description": "Title of the page in the 1st other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title", "suggested": true }, "4": { "label": "2nd language code", "description": "Language code for the 2nd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "5": { "label": "2nd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 2nd other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "6": { "label": "3rd language code", "description": "Language code for the 3rd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "7": { "label": "3rd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 3rd other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "default": "English Wikipedia article title", "type": "line" }, "8": { "label": "4th language code", "description": "Language code for the 4th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "9": { "label": "4th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 4th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "10": { "label": "5th language code", "description": "Language code for the 5th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "11": { "label": "5th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 5th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "12": { "label": "6th language code", "description": "Language code for the 6th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "13": { "label": "6th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 6th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "14": { "label": "7th language code", "description": "Language code for the 7th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "15": { "label": "7th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 7th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "16": { "label": "8th language code", "description": "Language code for the 8th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "17": { "label": "8th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 8th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "18": { "label": "9th language code", "description": "Language code for the 9th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "19": { "label": "9th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 9th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "20": { "label": "10th language code", "description": "Language code for the 10th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "21": { "label": "10th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 10th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "22": { "label": "11th language code", "description": "Language code for the 11th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "23": { "label": "11th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 11th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "24": { "label": "12th language code", "description": "Language code for the 12th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "25": { "label": "12th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 12th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "lt": { "label": "Link text", "description": "Text displayed for the link to the English Wikipedia article, if not the same as the article title.

The intent is to provide readers with options to research further into topics not yet covered by English Wikipedia. The intent is ''not'' to catalogue every foreign-language article; while there is no general consensus when this template should be used, or what languages should be linked when an article missing in English is present in several other language Wikipedias, more than 2 or 3 links are rarely needed. This template adds additional links to one or more foreign-language Wikipedias to the end of a [[WP:RED|red link]] in order to both provide readers additional information provided by those languages and give editors additional resources when starting a new article on the topic. If and when an article on the red-linked topic is created, this template will only show the normal blue link to the page (i.e. the foreign-language links will be removed); the template can then be replaced by the [[H:WIKILINK|standard wikilink]], either manually or by [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Cewbot|a bot account]]. Alternatively, the template provides a link to [[WP:WD|WikiData]].{{efn|See the {{para|qid}} parameter. This functionality previously existed as its own separate template, {{tl|Interlanguage link Wikidata}}.}} This template should not be used when an article on a topic already exists, {{em|except}} when the link is a [[WP:redirect|redirect]] pointing to an article that [[:Category:Redirects with possibilities|potentially could be changed]] into its own article. See {{slink||Limitations and known issues}} for other restrictions and caveats. ==Usage== :''Note: all examples on this page will use {{tnull|ill}}, the main [[Wikipedia:Shortcut|template shortcut]] for this template'' {{t|ill}} takes at a minimum two parameters (the "Basic syntax") for linking to a single foreign language, but it can be expanded to include multiple languages (see {{section link|List_of_Wikipedias#Wikipedia_editions}} for the full list of codes). Formatting of the link (e.g. bold, italics, quotes) and display options (e.g. [[WP:PIPE|piping links]]) are described in the {{slink||Parameters}} and {{slink||Examples}} sections below. ;Basic syntax (one language, same title): :{{tlc|ill|''English article title'' |''language code''}} When only a single foreign language link is required and the title at the target language is the same as in English, all that is required in the template is the name of the article and the language code. For example, the German rapper Estikay does not have an article on the English Wikipedia but there is one on the German Wikipedia; to indicate that we would use {{tlc|ill|Estikay|de|_show_result=yes}}. ;Basic syntax (one language, different title) :{{tlc|ill|''English article title''|''language code''|''title in foreign language''}} When only a single foreign language link is required, but the title at the target language is {{em|not}} the same as in English, the title of the foreign language article needs to be included. This often occurs an article title contains a word that would normally be translated, for example {{tlc|ill|Hooglede town hall|nl|Gemeentehuis van Hooglede|_show_result=yes}}. ;Two (or more) languages, same title :<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>ill|''English article title''|''language 1 code''||''language 2 code''||''language 3 code''||...}}</code> If there are two or more languages using the same title as the proposed English redlink, the foreign language names are not required. <code><nowiki>{{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}} Note: Redirects appear as blue links while foreign-language links are still shown. For example, {{-r|casa}} is a redirect and thus <code><nowiki>{{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}. ;Two (or more) languages, different title :{{tlc|ill|''English article title''|''language 1 code''|''Title in language 1''|''language 2 code''|''Title in language 2''|...}} If there are two or more languages, but with a different title as the proposed English redlink, the foreign language names are required {{tlc|ill|Ropsha Palace|de|Ropscha-Palast|fr|Palais de Ropcha|ru|Ропшинский дворец|_show_result=yes}} === Alternatives === Please see [[Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links]] for several ways you can add interlanguage links, of which this template is only one method, albeit the recommended one. For use at the top of a section in the role where a {{t|Further}} link might normally be used, the template {{t|Further ill}} is available with similar functionality to this template for linking foreign Wikipedia articles. ==Parameters== Parameters for this template come in four groups: * A: one parameter (always required) to specify the page title of the (as yet) non-existent article in English; this normally appears as a [[WP:Red link|red link]] * B: parameters specifying the foreign Wikipedia page(s), either by [[meta:Table of Wikimedia projects|Wikipedia language code]] and pagename (these come in pairs), or by a [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]] (a single id may link many foreign Wikipedia pages) * C: optional link text, for altering what text is used for the link * D: optional stylistic parameters, for modifying how the link (or links) appear on the page '''group A''' – a '''page title''' of a proposed new article for English Wikipedia; should comply with [[WP:Article title]] policy. * {{para|1}} – the proposed page title. This must be a [[WP:RED|red link]] or a [[Template:R with possibilities|redirect with possibilities]]. (If it isn't, do not use this template.) '''Required.''' {{anchor|paired positional parameters}} '''group B''' – specification of corresponding foreign Wikipedia page(s); up to 16 pairs of ''lang-code + page-title'', or else a single [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]]. Either qid *or* positional param {{para|2}} '''must''' be specified. * '''Paired positional params''' {{para|2}} and {{para|3}}, through {{para|32}} and {{para|33}}; the second item of each pair may be empty if the foreign pagename is the same as the param 1: ** <code>2</code> and <code>3</code> – the [[m:Template:List of language names ordered by code|language code]] and page to link to article(s) on [[List of Wikipedias|foreign Wikipedia]](s). '''Required''' unless {{para|qid}} is used. ** <code>4</code> and <code>5</code> – a second lang-code and page to link to on a foreign wikipedia. Optional. If 5 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. ** <code>6</code> and <code>7</code> – a third lang-code/page pair, to link a foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 7 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. **: and so on, up through: ** <code>32</code> and <code>33</code> – last lang-code + page pair, to link one foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 33 is missing, it takes the value of param 1 * or '''Wikidata id''' – use of this parameter overrides any positional parameters: ** {{anchor|qid}} {{para|qid}} – the [[Wikipedia:Wikidata#Access from Wikipedia|Wikidata item identifier]] corresponding to existing article(s) on other Wikipedias. The qid param replaces all of the paired parameters listed above in this group. See [[Wikipedia:Finding a Wikidata ID]] for help in locating a qid from an existing Wikipedia article that is linked from Wikidata. Alternatively, you can search for a qid directly at Wikidata by using the search box at the top of any Wikidata page and searching for a likely label, like [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?search=Basil+of+Luni&language=en&title=Special%3ASearch&ns0=1 this ''Basil of Luni'' search]. The qid should appear in the search results. '''group C''' – '''altering link text''' changing the text of the link (named param, optional): * {{para|lt|...}} – turns the red English link into a [[WP:PIPE|piped link]] using the given text; ('lt' stands for "link text". There is no long form, i.e. you cannot use {{para|link text}}). '''group D''' – '''stylistic parameters''' for formatting the output (all named params, and all optional): * {{para|italics|yes}} – italicizes the display text (but not the language links) (Alias: <code>italic</code>) * {{para|quote|yes}} – embed the linked param 1 article name in double quotes (language links remain outside) (Alias: <code>quotes</code>) * {{para|nobold|yes}} – force language links to be [[font weight|normal weight]], even if the template is embedded in a line of bolded text * {{para|valign|...}} – values: {{pval|sub}} (below the baseline), {{pval|sup}} (above the baseline), or {{pval|ib}} (none). (Alias: <code>v</code>) * {{para|preserve|yes}} – force language links to display even if param 1 points to an existing article (Alias: <code>display</code>) * {{anchor|short}}{{para|short|yes}} – when {{para|qid}} is in use, shorten the link from '[{{blue|wikidata}}]' to just '[{{blue|wd}}]'. (Alias: <code>s</code>) ==Examples== ===Altering link text=== To create a [[WP:piped link|piped link]] (text displayed that is different from the title of the page to which the text links), use the {{para|lt}} parameter (for '''l'''ink '''t'''ext). This is mainly useful if [[WP:disambiguation|disambiguation]] is necessary, but can be used for any reason where a piped link would make sense. *{{tlc|ill|David Cannon McConnel|lt{{=}}David|qid{{=}}Q21536696}} (used in the phrase "David and Mary McConnel" in [[Bulimba House]]) *{{tlc|ill|Capture of Berlin (1813)|lt{{=}}1813 Capture of Berlin|ru|Атака Берлина отрядами Чернышёва и Теттенборна (1813)|_show_result=yes}} *{{tlc|ill|Takashi Onishi (scientist)|lt{{=}}Takashi Onishi|ja|大西隆|_show_result=yes}} ([[Takashi Onishi]] is a football player) *{{tlc|ill|Yuri Smirnov (physicist)|lt{{=}}Yuri Smirnov|ru|Смирнов, Юрий Николаевич (физик)|_show_result=yes}} ([[Yuri Smirnov]] is a disambiguation page) *{{tlc|ill|Grünbein (Argentine town)|es|Grünbein|lt{{=}}Grünbein|_show_result=yes}} In the last example above, a disambiguator is added because {{-r|Grünbein}} is a redirect, and while (like {{-r|casa}}) this will still show the language codes as {{ill|Grünbein|es}}, the redirect points to [[Durs Grünbein]] which is entirely unrelated to the Argentine town. [[en:MOS:CIRCULAR|Circular redirects]] are another redirect case where it may make more sense to artificially create a redlink until such time as the redirect can be converted into an article, though this is not required; see {{slink||Circular redirects}} below for more information and an example. ===Stylistic parameters=== {| class="wikitable" !Parameter !!

Add a WikiData link to a concept where no quality article could be found in any language, but normally only through InfoBoxes or similar templates. WikiData links are also useful for red link lists in user or project space, and for identification purposes and to establish the initial connection to an already established piece of infrastructure elsewhere. ; When and where not to supply a WikiData link? When several foreign-language articles about a subject exists, the general reader is much better served by you hand-picking a few quality articles, than by a WikiData link. Remember, this template is not intended to supplant the existing interlanguage link functionality ([[WP:ILLSIDEBAR]]): most readers are much more at ease with the idea to visit a foreign-language article and then using the language sidebar or drop-down to find every language covering a subject, than to navigate the WikiData user interface. ==Limitations and known issues== === Automated removal === You can remove the template when a red link turns blue, and it is no longer needed. However, there is no need to remember to do so, because [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] does this automatically for you, replacing the template with a plain wikilink. A possible downside of removing the template is loss of linkage to foreign articles in case the English Wikipedia article is later deleted. In that case, the blue wikilink will become a [[WP:REDLINK|red link]], where an {{t|ill}} template would re-emerge with visually apparent blue link(s) to foreign article(s). {{Respond|orangeexclamation|Please be aware}} [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] '''removes''' this template when it detects the target article has been created on English Wikipedia, converting {{tl|ill}} links to regular (blue) links.{{efn|name=preserve|Use {{para|preserve}} or its alias {{para|display}} to show the language links even if the English Wikipedia page exists. Using either parameter also eliminates the expensive parser function call. {{U|Cewbot}} will NOT convert this template into a regular link if either parameter is set. Cewbot will also not convert this template into a regular link if the English Wikipedia page exists but is a redirect back to the same page where the template appears; i.e. [[#Circular redirects]].}} === Circular redirects === If the topic you are trying to provide interlanguage links for already exists on English Wikipedia as a redirect, '''and this redirect points back to the article you are trying to edit''', this template might [[WP:ASTONISH|astonish]] readers; they expect a blue link to lead to an English-language article, but all they get is the same page reloaded. Attempts have been made for the {{tl|Interlanguage link}} template to automatically detect this, but currently none are functional. {{slink|Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links}} has other linking options, but if this template is to be used, the best option is to artificially create a red link using a reasonable disambiguator. For example, {{-r|Helen Reef}} points to [[Hatohobei]], so instead of using {{ill|Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}} on the Hatohobei page it may be better to use {{ill|Helen Reef (atoll)|lt=Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}}, where the editor has made up a new red link target: [[Helen Reef (atoll)]] - this phrasing should tell other editors what subject the link is intended to cover if and when created. Please use these two versions of the Hatohobei article to compare: [[Special:PermaLink/1339802168#Islands|version with a circular redirect]] ({{cross}} avoid) and [[Special:PermaLink/1339990136#Islands|version with an artificial red link]] ({{tick}} better). Do note that if an article about the atoll is written, either the artificial red link will need to be created as a redirect or the [[Hatohobei]] article will need to be edited to convert the {{tlc|ill}} call into a regular wikilink. In other words, there is no perfect solution; if the circular redirect is avoided, manual editing will be necessary if and when that redirect is expanded into a proper article, regardless of whether this template or another method is used. Interlanguage links that are circular redirects are not converted by [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] into regular links. === Expensive parser call === {{Main|Help:Template limits#Expensive parser function calls}} Avoid filling an article with dozens or hundreds of instances of this template. See {{slink||Alternatives}} for alternative ways to display interlanguage links that avoids articles that mostly consist of {{tl|ill}} links. === In other Wikipedias === The Manual of Style in Spanish Wikipedia, and perhaps others, deprecates interlanguage links in live articles, and therefore the local version of this template ([[:es:Plantilla:ill]]) is disabled for main (article) space. It still works for discussion pages, for example. === Interactions with other templates === In the [[Wikipedia:main namespace|main namespace]], when using this template with the <code>{{t|lang}}</code> template, use <code>|cat=no</code> or <code>|nocat=yes</code> to remove the hidden category that <code><nowiki>{{lang}}</nowiki></code> creates. :{{cross}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|cat=no}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|nocat=yes}}}}</nowiki></code> This template '''should not be used in [[WP:Citation templates|citation templates]]''' such as [[Help:Citation Style 1|Citation Style 1]] and [[Help:Citation Style 2|Citation Style 2]], because it includes markup that will pollute the [[COinS]] metadata they produce; see [[Wikipedia:COinS]]. === Non-existent foreign article === On Wikipedia, links to non-existent pages {{em|normally}} show as [[WP:REDLINK|red links]]. However, this functionality only works within the Wikipedia site you're viewing. There is no way for this template, or any code on Wikipedia, to check [[mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##ifexist|whether an article on another language's Wikipedia exists]]. Links to all foreign-language articles, including non-existent foreign-language articles, show as blue links when constructed. For example, both <code><nowiki>[[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]] (exists) and <code><nowiki>[[:fr:no such article|no such article]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:no such article|no such article]] (does not exist) display in the same blue color. In other words, editors should take care to ensure the language codes they use actually correspond to an existing article; {{tlc|ill|no such article|fr|_show_result=yes}} does no one any good. ==TemplateData== {{collapse top|[[Wikipedia:TemplateData|TemplateData]] documentation used by [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] and other tools}} {{TemplateData header}} <templatedata> { "params": { "1": { "label": "Article name", "description": "Name of the English Wikipedia page, or suggested name if the page does not exist", "type": "wiki-page-name", "required": true, "suggested": true }, "2": { "label": "1st language code", "description": "Language code for the 1st page in another language (Note: the 1st language code is required, unless param 'qid' is present)", "type": "line", "suggested": true }, "3": { "label": "1st page", "description": "Title of the page in the 1st other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title", "suggested": true }, "4": { "label": "2nd language code", "description": "Language code for the 2nd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "5": { "label": "2nd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 2nd other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "6": { "label": "3rd language code", "description": "Language code for the 3rd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "7": { "label": "3rd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 3rd other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "default": "English Wikipedia article title", "type": "line" }, "8": { "label": "4th language code", "description": "Language code for the 4th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "9": { "label": "4th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 4th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "10": { "label": "5th language code", "description": "Language code for the 5th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "11": { "label": "5th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 5th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "12": { "label": "6th language code", "description": "Language code for the 6th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "13": { "label": "6th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 6th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "14": { "label": "7th language code", "description": "Language code for the 7th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "15": { "label": "7th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 7th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "16": { "label": "8th language code", "description": "Language code for the 8th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "17": { "label": "8th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 8th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "18": { "label": "9th language code", "description": "Language code for the 9th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "19": { "label": "9th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 9th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "20": { "label": "10th language code", "description": "Language code for the 10th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "21": { "label": "10th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 10th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "22": { "label": "11th language code", "description": "Language code for the 11th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "23": { "label": "11th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 11th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "24": { "label": "12th language code", "description": "Language code for the 12th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "25": { "label": "12th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 12th other language, if not the same as the English Wikipedia page", "type": "line", "default": "English Wikipedia article title" }, "lt": { "label": "Link text", "description": "Text displayed for the link to the English Wikipedia article, if not the same as the article title.

The intent is to provide readers with options to research further into topics not yet covered by Wikipedia in Luganda. The intent is ''not'' to catalogue every foreign-language article; while there is no general consensus when this template should be used, or what languages should be linked when an article missing in Luganda is present in several other language Wikipedias, more than 2 or 3 links are rarely needed. This template adds additional links to one or more foreign-language Wikipedias to the end of a [[WP:RED|red link]] in order to both provide readers additional information provided by those languages and give editors additional resources when starting a new article on the topic. If and when an article on the red-linked topic is created, this template will only show the normal blue link to the page (i.e. the foreign-language links will be removed); the template can then be replaced by the [[H:WIKILINK|standard wikilink]], either manually or by [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Cewbot|a bot account]]. Alternatively, the template provides a link to [[WP:WD|WikiData]].{{efn|See the {{para|qid}} parameter. This functionality previously existed as its own separate template, {{tl|Interlanguage link Wikidata}}.}} This template should not be used when an article on a topic already exists, {{em|except}} when the link is a [[WP:redirect|redirect]] pointing to an article that [[:Category:Redirects with possibilities|potentially could be changed]] into its own article. See {{slink||Limitations and known issues}} for other restrictions and caveats. ==Usage== :''Note: all examples on this page will use {{tnull|ill}}, the main [[Wikipedia:Shortcut|template shortcut]] for this template'' {{t|ill}} takes at a minimum two parameters (the "Basic syntax") for linking to a single foreign language, but it can be expanded to include multiple languages (see {{section link|List_of_Wikipedias#Wikipedia_editions}} for the full list of codes). Formatting of the link (e.g. bold, italics, quotes) and display options (e.g. [[WP:PIPE|piping links]]) are described in the {{slink||Parameters}} and {{slink||Examples}} sections below. ;Basic syntax (one language, same title): :{{tlc|ill|''Luganda article title'' |''language code''}} When only a single foreign language link is required and the title at the target language is the same as in Luganda, all that is required in the template is the name of the article and the language code. For example, the German rapper Estikay does not have an article on the Wikipedia in Luganda but there is one on the German Wikipedia; to indicate that we would use {{tlc|ill|Estikay|de|_show_result=yes}}. ;Basic syntax (one language, different title) :{{tlc|ill|''Luganda article title''|''language code''|''title in foreign language''}} When only a single foreign language link is required, but the title at the target language is {{em|not}} the same as in Luganda, the title of the foreign language article needs to be included. This often occurs an article title contains a word that would normally be translated, for example {{tlc|ill|Hooglede town hall|nl|Gemeentehuis van Hooglede|_show_result=yes}}. ;Two (or more) languages, same title :<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>ill|''Luganda article title''|''language 1 code''||''language 2 code''||''language 3 code''||...}}</code> If there are two or more languages using the same title as the proposed Luganda redlink, the foreign language names are not required. <code><nowiki>{{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}} Note: Redirects appear as blue links while foreign-language links are still shown. For example, {{-r|casa}} is a redirect and thus <code><nowiki>{{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}. ;Two (or more) languages, different title :{{tlc|ill|''Luganda article title''|''language 1 code''|''Title in language 1''|''language 2 code''|''Title in language 2''|...}} If there are two or more languages, but with a different title as the proposed Luganda redlink, the foreign language names are required {{tlc|ill|Ropsha Palace|de|Ropscha-Palast|fr|Palais de Ropcha|ru|Ропшинский дворец|_show_result=yes}} === Alternatives === Please see [[Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links]] for several ways you can add interlanguage links, of which this template is only one method, albeit the recommended one. For use at the top of a section in the role where a {{t|Further}} link might normally be used, the template {{t|Further ill}} is available with similar functionality to this template for linking foreign Wikipedia articles. ==Parameters== Parameters for this template come in four groups: * A: one parameter (always required) to specify the page title of the (as yet) non-existent article in Luganda; this normally appears as a [[WP:Red link|red link]] * B: parameters specifying the foreign Wikipedia page(s), either by [[meta:Table of Wikimedia projects|Wikipedia language code]] and pagename (these come in pairs), or by a [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]] (a single id may link many foreign Wikipedia pages) * C: optional link text, for altering what text is used for the link * D: optional stylistic parameters, for modifying how the link (or links) appear on the page '''group A''' – a '''page title''' of a proposed new article for Wikipedia in Luganda; should comply with [[WP:Article title]] policy. * {{para|1}} – the proposed page title. This must be a [[WP:RED|red link]] or a [[Template:R with possibilities|redirect with possibilities]]. (If it isn't, do not use this template.) '''Required.''' {{anchor|paired positional parameters}} '''group B''' – specification of corresponding foreign Wikipedia page(s); up to 16 pairs of ''lang-code + page-title'', or else a single [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]]. Either qid *or* positional param {{para|2}} '''must''' be specified. * '''Paired positional params''' {{para|2}} and {{para|3}}, through {{para|32}} and {{para|33}}; the second item of each pair may be empty if the foreign pagename is the same as the param 1: ** <code>2</code> and <code>3</code> – the [[m:Template:List of language names ordered by code|language code]] and page to link to article(s) on [[List of Wikipedias|foreign Wikipedia]](s). '''Required''' unless {{para|qid}} is used. ** <code>4</code> and <code>5</code> – a second lang-code and page to link to on a foreign wikipedia. Optional. If 5 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. ** <code>6</code> and <code>7</code> – a third lang-code/page pair, to link a foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 7 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. **: and so on, up through: ** <code>32</code> and <code>33</code> – last lang-code + page pair, to link one foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 33 is missing, it takes the value of param 1 * or '''Wikidata id''' – use of this parameter overrides any positional parameters: ** {{anchor|qid}} {{para|qid}} – the [[Wikipedia:Wikidata#Access from Wikipedia|Wikidata item identifier]] corresponding to existing article(s) on other Wikipedias. The qid param replaces all of the paired parameters listed above in this group. See [[Wikipedia:Finding a Wikidata ID]] for help in locating a qid from an existing Wikipedia article that is linked from Wikidata. Alternatively, you can search for a qid directly at Wikidata by using the search box at the top of any Wikidata page and searching for a likely label, like [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?search=Basil+of+Luni&language=en&title=Special%3ASearch&ns0=1 this ''Basil of Luni'' search]. The qid should appear in the search results. '''group C''' – '''altering link text''' changing the text of the link (named param, optional): * {{para|lt|...}} – turns the red Luganda link into a [[WP:PIPE|piped link]] using the given text; ('lt' stands for "link text". There is no long form, i.e. you cannot use {{para|link text}}). '''group D''' – '''stylistic parameters''' for formatting the output (all named params, and all optional): * {{para|italics|yes}} – italicizes the display text (but not the language links) (Alias: <code>italic</code>) * {{para|quote|yes}} – embed the linked param 1 article name in double quotes (language links remain outside) (Alias: <code>quotes</code>) * {{para|nobold|yes}} – force language links to be [[font weight|normal weight]], even if the template is embedded in a line of bolded text * {{para|valign|...}} – values: {{pval|sub}} (below the baseline), {{pval|sup}} (above the baseline), or {{pval|ib}} (none). (Alias: <code>v</code>) * {{para|preserve|yes}} – force language links to display even if param 1 points to an existing article (Alias: <code>display</code>) * {{anchor|short}}{{para|short|yes}} – when {{para|qid}} is in use, shorten the link from '[{{blue|wikidata}}]' to just '[{{blue|wd}}]'. (Alias: <code>s</code>) ==Examples== ===Altering link text=== To create a [[WP:piped link|piped link]] (text displayed that is different from the title of the page to which the text links), use the {{para|lt}} parameter (for '''l'''ink '''t'''ext). This is mainly useful if [[WP:disambiguation|disambiguation]] is necessary, but can be used for any reason where a piped link would make sense. *{{tlc|ill|David Cannon McConnel|lt{{=}}David|qid{{=}}Q21536696}} (used in the phrase "David and Mary McConnel" in [[Bulimba House]]) *{{tlc|ill|Capture of Berlin (1813)|lt{{=}}1813 Capture of Berlin|ru|Атака Берлина отрядами Чернышёва и Теттенборна (1813)|_show_result=yes}} *{{tlc|ill|Takashi Onishi (scientist)|lt{{=}}Takashi Onishi|ja|大西隆|_show_result=yes}} ([[Takashi Onishi]] is a football player) *{{tlc|ill|Yuri Smirnov (physicist)|lt{{=}}Yuri Smirnov|ru|Смирнов, Юрий Николаевич (физик)|_show_result=yes}} ([[Yuri Smirnov]] is a disambiguation page) *{{tlc|ill|Grünbein (Argentine town)|es|Grünbein|lt{{=}}Grünbein|_show_result=yes}} In the last example above, a disambiguator is added because {{-r|Grünbein}} is a redirect, and while (like {{-r|casa}}) this will still show the language codes as {{ill|Grünbein|es}}, the redirect points to [[Durs Grünbein]] which is entirely unrelated to the Argentine town. [[en:MOS:CIRCULAR|Circular redirects]] are another redirect case where it may make more sense to artificially create a redlink until such time as the redirect can be converted into an article, though this is not required; see {{slink||Circular redirects}} below for more information and an example. ===Stylistic parameters=== {| class="wikitable" !Parameter !!

Add a WikiData link to a concept where no quality article could be found in any language, but normally only through InfoBoxes or similar templates. WikiData links are also useful for red link lists in user or project space, and for identification purposes and to establish the initial connection to an already established piece of infrastructure elsewhere. ; When and where not to supply a WikiData link? When several foreign-language articles about a subject exists, the general reader is much better served by you hand-picking a few quality articles, than by a WikiData link. Remember, this template is not intended to supplant the existing interlanguage link functionality ([[WP:ILLSIDEBAR]]): most readers are much more at ease with the idea to visit a foreign-language article and then using the language sidebar or drop-down to find every language covering a subject, than to navigate the WikiData user interface. ==Limitations and known issues== === Automated removal === You can remove the template when a red link turns blue, and it is no longer needed. However, there is no need to remember to do so, because [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] does this automatically for you, replacing the template with a plain wikilink. A possible downside of removing the template is loss of linkage to foreign articles in case the Wikipedia in Luganda article is later deleted. In that case, the blue wikilink will become a [[WP:REDLINK|red link]], where an {{t|ill}} template would re-emerge with visually apparent blue link(s) to foreign article(s). {{Respond|orangeexclamation|Please be aware}} [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] '''removes''' this template when it detects the target article has been created on Wikipedia in Luganda, converting {{tl|ill}} links to regular (blue) links.{{efn|name=preserve|Use {{para|preserve}} or its alias {{para|display}} to show the language links even if the Wikipedia in Luganda page exists. Using either parameter also eliminates the expensive parser function call. {{U|Cewbot}} will NOT convert this template into a regular link if either parameter is set. Cewbot will also not convert this template into a regular link if the Wikipedia in Luganda page exists but is a redirect back to the same page where the template appears; i.e. [[#Circular redirects]].}} === Circular redirects === If the topic you are trying to provide interlanguage links for already exists on Wikipedia in Luganda as a redirect, '''and this redirect points back to the article you are trying to edit''', this template might [[WP:ASTONISH|astonish]] readers; they expect a blue link to lead to an Luganda-language article, but all they get is the same page reloaded. Attempts have been made for the {{tl|Interlanguage link}} template to automatically detect this, but currently none are functional. {{slink|Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links}} has other linking options, but if this template is to be used, the best option is to artificially create a red link using a reasonable disambiguator. For example, {{-r|Helen Reef}} points to [[Hatohobei]], so instead of using {{ill|Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}} on the Hatohobei page it may be better to use {{ill|Helen Reef (atoll)|lt=Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}}, where the editor has made up a new red link target: [[Helen Reef (atoll)]] - this phrasing should tell other editors what subject the link is intended to cover if and when created. Please use these two versions of the Hatohobei article to compare: [[Special:PermaLink/1339802168#Islands|version with a circular redirect]] ({{cross}} avoid) and [[Special:PermaLink/1339990136#Islands|version with an artificial red link]] ({{tick}} better). Do note that if an article about the atoll is written, either the artificial red link will need to be created as a redirect or the [[Hatohobei]] article will need to be edited to convert the {{tlc|ill}} call into a regular wikilink. In other words, there is no perfect solution; if the circular redirect is avoided, manual editing will be necessary if and when that redirect is expanded into a proper article, regardless of whether this template or another method is used. Interlanguage links that are circular redirects are not converted by [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] into regular links. === Expensive parser call === {{Main|Help:Template limits#Expensive parser function calls}} Avoid filling an article with dozens or hundreds of instances of this template. See {{slink||Alternatives}} for alternative ways to display interlanguage links that avoids articles that mostly consist of {{tl|ill}} links. === In other Wikipedias === The Manual of Style in Spanish Wikipedia, and perhaps others, deprecates interlanguage links in live articles, and therefore the local version of this template ([[:es:Plantilla:ill]]) is disabled for main (article) space. It still works for discussion pages, for example. === Interactions with other templates === In the [[Wikipedia:main namespace|main namespace]], when using this template with the <code>{{t|lang}}</code> template, use <code>|cat=no</code> or <code>|nocat=yes</code> to remove the hidden category that <code><nowiki>{{lang}}</nowiki></code> creates. :{{cross}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|cat=no}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|nocat=yes}}}}</nowiki></code> This template '''should not be used in [[WP:Citation templates|citation templates]]''' such as [[Help:Citation Style 1|Citation Style 1]] and [[Help:Citation Style 2|Citation Style 2]], because it includes markup that will pollute the [[COinS]] metadata they produce; see [[Wikipedia:COinS]]. === Non-existent foreign article === On Wikipedia, links to non-existent pages {{em|normally}} show as [[WP:REDLINK|red links]]. However, this functionality only works within the Wikipedia site you're viewing. There is no way for this template, or any code on Wikipedia, to check [[mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##ifexist|whether an article on another language's Wikipedia exists]]. Links to all foreign-language articles, including non-existent foreign-language articles, show as blue links when constructed. For example, both <code><nowiki>[[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]] (exists) and <code><nowiki>[[:fr:no such article|no such article]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:no such article|no such article]] (does not exist) display in the same blue color. In other words, editors should take care to ensure the language codes they use actually correspond to an existing article; {{tlc|ill|no such article|fr|_show_result=yes}} does no one any good. ==TemplateData== {{collapse top|[[Wikipedia:TemplateData|TemplateData]] documentation used by [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] and other tools}} {{TemplateData header}} <templatedata> { "params": { "1": { "label": "Article name", "description": "Name of the Wikipedia in Luganda page, or suggested name if the page does not exist", "type": "wiki-page-name", "required": true, "suggested": true }, "2": { "label": "1st language code", "description": "Language code for the 1st page in another language (Note: the 1st language code is required, unless param 'qid' is present)", "type": "line", "suggested": true }, "3": { "label": "1st page", "description": "Title of the page in the 1st other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title", "suggested": true }, "4": { "label": "2nd language code", "description": "Language code for the 2nd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "5": { "label": "2nd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 2nd other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "6": { "label": "3rd language code", "description": "Language code for the 3rd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "7": { "label": "3rd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 3rd other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title", "type": "line" }, "8": { "label": "4th language code", "description": "Language code for the 4th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "9": { "label": "4th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 4th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "10": { "label": "5th language code", "description": "Language code for the 5th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "11": { "label": "5th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 5th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "12": { "label": "6th language code", "description": "Language code for the 6th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "13": { "label": "6th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 6th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "14": { "label": "7th language code", "description": "Language code for the 7th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "15": { "label": "7th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 7th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "16": { "label": "8th language code", "description": "Language code for the 8th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "17": { "label": "8th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 8th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "18": { "label": "9th language code", "description": "Language code for the 9th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "19": { "label": "9th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 9th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "20": { "label": "10th language code", "description": "Language code for the 10th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "21": { "label": "10th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 10th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "22": { "label": "11th language code", "description": "Language code for the 11th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "23": { "label": "11th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 11th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "24": { "label": "12th language code", "description": "Language code for the 12th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "25": { "label": "12th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 12th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "lt": { "label": "Link text", "description": "Text displayed for the link to the Wikipedia in Luganda article, if not the same as the article title.

The intent is to provide readers with options to research further into topics not yet covered by Wikipedia in Luganda. The intent is ''not'' to catalogue every foreign-language article; while there is no general consensus when this template should be used, or what languages should be linked when an article missing in Luganda is present in several other language Wikipedias, more than 2 or 3 links are rarely needed. This template adds additional links to one or more foreign-language Wikipedias to the end of a [[WP:RED|red link]] in order to both provide readers additional information provided by those languages and give editors additional resources when starting a new article on the topic. If and when an article on the red-linked topic is created, this template will only show the normal blue link to the page (i.e. the foreign-language links will be removed); the template can then be replaced by the [[H:WIKILINK|standard wikilink]], either manually or by [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Cewbot|a bot account]]. Alternatively, the template provides a link to [[WP:WD|WikiData]].{{efn|See the {{para|qid}} parameter. This functionality previously existed as its own separate template, {{tl|Interlanguage link Wikidata}}.}} This template should not be used when an article on a topic already exists, {{em|except}} when the link is a [[WP:redirect|redirect]] pointing to an article that [[:Category:Redirects with possibilities|potentially could be changed]] into its own article. See {{slink||Limitations and known issues}} for other restrictions and caveats. ==Usage== :''Note: all examples on this page will use {{tnull|ill}}, the main [[Wikipedia:Shortcut|template shortcut]] for this template'' {{t|ill}} takes at a minimum two parameters (the "Basic syntax") for linking to a single foreign language, but it can be expanded to include multiple languages (see {{section link|List_of_Wikipedias#Wikipedia_editions}} for the full list of codes). Formatting of the link (e.g. bold, italics, quotes) and display options (e.g. [[WP:PIPE|piping links]]) are described in the {{slink||Parameters}} and {{slink||Examples}} sections below. ;Basic syntax (one language, same title): :{{tlc|ill|''Luganda article title'' |''language code''}} When only a single foreign language link is required and the title at the target language is the same as in Luganda, all that is required in the template is the name of the article and the language code. For example, the German rapper Estikay does not have an article on the Wikipedia in Luganda but there is one on the German Wikipedia; to indicate that we would use {{tlc|ill|Estikay|de|_show_result=yes}}. ;Basic syntax (one language, different title) :{{tlc|ill|''Luganda article title''|''language code''|''title in foreign language''}} When only a single foreign language link is required, but the title at the target language is {{em|not}} the same as in Luganda, the title of the foreign language article needs to be included. This often occurs an article title contains a word that would normally be translated, for example {{tlc|ill|Hooglede town hall|nl|Gemeentehuis van Hooglede|_show_result=yes}}. ;Two (or more) languages, same title :<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>ill|''Luganda article title''|''language 1 code''||''language 2 code''||''language 3 code''||...}}</code> If there are two or more languages using the same title as the proposed Luganda redlink, the foreign language names are not required. <code><nowiki>{{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}} Note: Redirects appear as blue links while foreign-language links are still shown. For example, {{-r|casa}} is a redirect and thus <code><nowiki>{{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}. ;Two (or more) languages, different title :{{tlc|ill|''Luganda article title''|''language 1 code''|''Title in language 1''|''language 2 code''|''Title in language 2''|...}} If there are two or more languages, but with a different title as the proposed Luganda redlink, the foreign language names are required {{tlc|ill|Ropsha Palace|de|Ropscha-Palast|fr|Palais de Ropcha|ru|Ропшинский дворец|_show_result=yes}} === Alternatives === Please see [[Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links]] for several ways you can add interlanguage links, of which this template is only one method, albeit the recommended one. For use at the top of a section in the role where a {{t|Further}} link might normally be used, the template {{t|Further ill}} is available with similar functionality to this template for linking foreign Wikipedia articles. ==Parameters== Parameters for this template come in four groups: * A: one parameter (always required) to specify the page title of the (as yet) non-existent article in Luganda; this normally appears as a [[WP:Red link|red link]] * B: parameters specifying the foreign Wikipedia page(s), either by [[meta:Table of Wikimedia projects|Wikipedia language code]] and pagename (these come in pairs), or by a [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]] (a single id may link many foreign Wikipedia pages) * C: optional link text, for altering what text is used for the link * D: optional stylistic parameters, for modifying how the link (or links) appear on the page '''group A''' – a '''page title''' of a proposed new article for Wikipedia in Luganda; should comply with [[WP:Article title]] policy. * {{para|1}} – the proposed page title. This must be a [[WP:RED|red link]] or a [[Template:R with possibilities|redirect with possibilities]]. (If it isn't, do not use this template.) '''Required.''' {{anchor|paired positional parameters}} '''group B''' – specification of corresponding foreign Wikipedia page(s); up to 16 pairs of ''lang-code + page-title'', or else a single [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]]. Either qid *or* positional param {{para|2}} '''must''' be specified. * '''Paired positional params''' {{para|2}} and {{para|3}}, through {{para|32}} and {{para|33}}; the second item of each pair may be empty if the foreign pagename is the same as the param 1: ** <code>2</code> and <code>3</code> – the [[m:Template:List of language names ordered by code|language code]] and page to link to article(s) on [[List of Wikipedias|foreign Wikipedia]](s). '''Required''' unless {{para|qid}} is used. ** <code>4</code> and <code>5</code> – a second lang-code and page to link to on a foreign wikipedia. Optional. If 5 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. ** <code>6</code> and <code>7</code> – a third lang-code/page pair, to link a foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 7 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. **: and so on, up through: ** <code>32</code> and <code>33</code> – last lang-code + page pair, to link one foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 33 is missing, it takes the value of param 1 * or '''Wikidata id''' – use of this parameter overrides any positional parameters: ** {{anchor|qid}} {{para|qid}} – the [[Wikipedia:Wikidata#Access from Wikipedia|Wikidata item identifier]] corresponding to existing article(s) on other Wikipedias. The qid param replaces all of the paired parameters listed above in this group. See [[Wikipedia:Finding a Wikidata ID]] for help in locating a qid from an existing Wikipedia article that is linked from Wikidata. Alternatively, you can search for a qid directly at Wikidata by using the search box at the top of any Wikidata page and searching for a likely label, like [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?search=Basil+of+Luni&language=en&title=Special%3ASearch&ns0=1 this ''Basil of Luni'' search]. The qid should appear in the search results. '''group C''' – '''altering link text''' changing the text of the link (named param, optional): * {{para|lt|...}} – turns the red Luganda link into a [[WP:PIPE|piped link]] using the given text; ('lt' stands for "link text". There is no long form, i.e. you cannot use {{para|link text}}). '''group D''' – '''stylistic parameters''' for formatting the output (all named params, and all optional): * {{para|italics|yes}} – italicizes the display text (but not the language links) (Alias: <code>italic</code>) * {{para|quote|yes}} – embed the linked param 1 article name in double quotes (language links remain outside) (Alias: <code>quotes</code>) * {{para|nobold|yes}} – force language links to be [[font weight|normal weight]], even if the template is embedded in a line of bolded text * {{para|valign|...}} – values: {{pval|sub}} (below the baseline), {{pval|sup}} (above the baseline), or {{pval|ib}} (none). (Alias: <code>v</code>) * {{para|preserve|yes}} – force language links to display even if param 1 points to an existing article (Alias: <code>display</code>) * {{anchor|short}}{{para|short|yes}} – when {{para|qid}} is in use, shorten the link from '[{{blue|wikidata}}]' to just '[{{blue|wd}}]'. (Alias: <code>s</code>) ==Examples== ===Altering link text=== To create a [[WP:piped link|piped link]] (text displayed that is different from the title of the page to which the text links), use the {{para|lt}} parameter (for '''l'''ink '''t'''ext). This is mainly useful if [[WP:disambiguation|disambiguation]] is necessary, but can be used for any reason where a piped link would make sense. *{{tlc|ill|David Cannon McConnel|lt{{=}}David|qid{{=}}Q21536696}} (used in the phrase "David and Mary McConnel" in [[Bulimba House]]) *{{tlc|ill|Capture of Berlin (1813)|lt{{=}}1813 Capture of Berlin|ru|Атака Берлина отрядами Чернышёва и Теттенборна (1813)|_show_result=yes}} *{{tlc|ill|Takashi Onishi (scientist)|lt{{=}}Takashi Onishi|ja|大西隆|_show_result=yes}} ([[Takashi Onishi]] is a football player) *{{tlc|ill|Yuri Smirnov (physicist)|lt{{=}}Yuri Smirnov|ru|Смирнов, Юрий Николаевич (физик)|_show_result=yes}} ([[Yuri Smirnov]] is a disambiguation page) *{{tlc|ill|Grünbein (Argentine town)|es|Grünbein|lt{{=}}Grünbein|_show_result=yes}} In the last example above, a disambiguator is added because {{-r|Grünbein}} is a redirect, and while (like {{-r|casa}}) this will still show the language codes as {{ill|Grünbein|es}}, the redirect points to [[Durs Grünbein]] which is entirely unrelated to the Argentine town. [[:en:MOS:CIRCULAR|Circular redirects]] are another redirect case where it may make more sense to artificially create a redlink until such time as the redirect can be converted into an article, though this is not required; see {{slink||Circular redirects}} below for more information and an example. ===Stylistic parameters=== {| class="wikitable" !Parameter !!

Add a WikiData link to a concept where no quality article could be found in any language, but normally only through InfoBoxes or similar templates. WikiData links are also useful for red link lists in user or project space, and for identification purposes and to establish the initial connection to an already established piece of infrastructure elsewhere. ; When and where not to supply a WikiData link? When several foreign-language articles about a subject exists, the general reader is much better served by you hand-picking a few quality articles, than by a WikiData link. Remember, this template is not intended to supplant the existing interlanguage link functionality ([[WP:ILLSIDEBAR]]): most readers are much more at ease with the idea to visit a foreign-language article and then using the language sidebar or drop-down to find every language covering a subject, than to navigate the WikiData user interface. ==Limitations and known issues== === Automated removal === You can remove the template when a red link turns blue, and it is no longer needed. However, there is no need to remember to do so, because [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] does this automatically for you, replacing the template with a plain wikilink. A possible downside of removing the template is loss of linkage to foreign articles in case the Wikipedia in Luganda article is later deleted. In that case, the blue wikilink will become a [[WP:REDLINK|red link]], where an {{t|ill}} template would re-emerge with visually apparent blue link(s) to foreign article(s). {{Respond|orangeexclamation|Please be aware}} [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] '''removes''' this template when it detects the target article has been created on Wikipedia in Luganda, converting {{tl|ill}} links to regular (blue) links.{{efn|name=preserve|Use {{para|preserve}} or its alias {{para|display}} to show the language links even if the Wikipedia in Luganda page exists. Using either parameter also eliminates the expensive parser function call. {{U|Cewbot}} will NOT convert this template into a regular link if either parameter is set. Cewbot will also not convert this template into a regular link if the Wikipedia in Luganda page exists but is a redirect back to the same page where the template appears; i.e. [[#Circular redirects]].}} === Circular redirects === If the topic you are trying to provide interlanguage links for already exists on Wikipedia in Luganda as a redirect, '''and this redirect points back to the article you are trying to edit''', this template might [[WP:ASTONISH|astonish]] readers; they expect a blue link to lead to an Luganda-language article, but all they get is the same page reloaded. Attempts have been made for the {{tl|Interlanguage link}} template to automatically detect this, but currently none are functional. {{slink|Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links}} has other linking options, but if this template is to be used, the best option is to artificially create a red link using a reasonable disambiguator. For example, {{-r|Helen Reef}} points to [[Hatohobei]], so instead of using {{ill|Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}} on the Hatohobei page it may be better to use {{ill|Helen Reef (atoll)|lt=Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}}, where the editor has made up a new red link target: [[Helen Reef (atoll)]] - this phrasing should tell other editors what subject the link is intended to cover if and when created. Please use these two versions of the Hatohobei article to compare: [[Special:PermaLink/1339802168#Islands|version with a circular redirect]] ({{cross}} avoid) and [[Special:PermaLink/1339990136#Islands|version with an artificial red link]] ({{tick}} better). Do note that if an article about the atoll is written, either the artificial red link will need to be created as a redirect or the [[Hatohobei]] article will need to be edited to convert the {{tlc|ill}} call into a regular wikilink. In other words, there is no perfect solution; if the circular redirect is avoided, manual editing will be necessary if and when that redirect is expanded into a proper article, regardless of whether this template or another method is used. Interlanguage links that are circular redirects are not converted by [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] into regular links. === Expensive parser call === {{Main|Help:Template limits#Expensive parser function calls}} Avoid filling an article with dozens or hundreds of instances of this template. See {{slink||Alternatives}} for alternative ways to display interlanguage links that avoids articles that mostly consist of {{tl|ill}} links. === In other Wikipedias === The Manual of Style in Spanish Wikipedia, and perhaps others, deprecates interlanguage links in live articles, and therefore the local version of this template ([[:es:Plantilla:ill]]) is disabled for main (article) space. It still works for discussion pages, for example. === Interactions with other templates === In the [[Wikipedia:main namespace|main namespace]], when using this template with the <code>{{t|lang}}</code> template, use <code>|cat=no</code> or <code>|nocat=yes</code> to remove the hidden category that <code><nowiki>{{lang}}</nowiki></code> creates. :{{cross}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|cat=no}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|nocat=yes}}}}</nowiki></code> This template '''should not be used in [[WP:Citation templates|citation templates]]''' such as [[Help:Citation Style 1|Citation Style 1]] and [[Help:Citation Style 2|Citation Style 2]], because it includes markup that will pollute the [[COinS]] metadata they produce; see [[Wikipedia:COinS]]. === Non-existent foreign article === On Wikipedia, links to non-existent pages {{em|normally}} show as [[WP:REDLINK|red links]]. However, this functionality only works within the Wikipedia site you're viewing. There is no way for this template, or any code on Wikipedia, to check [[mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##ifexist|whether an article on another language's Wikipedia exists]]. Links to all foreign-language articles, including non-existent foreign-language articles, show as blue links when constructed. For example, both <code><nowiki>[[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]] (exists) and <code><nowiki>[[:fr:no such article|no such article]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:no such article|no such article]] (does not exist) display in the same blue color. In other words, editors should take care to ensure the language codes they use actually correspond to an existing article; {{tlc|ill|no such article|fr|_show_result=yes}} does no one any good. ==TemplateData== {{collapse top|[[Wikipedia:TemplateData|TemplateData]] documentation used by [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] and other tools}} {{TemplateData header}} <templatedata> { "params": { "1": { "label": "Article name", "description": "Name of the Wikipedia in Luganda page, or suggested name if the page does not exist", "type": "wiki-page-name", "required": true, "suggested": true }, "2": { "label": "1st language code", "description": "Language code for the 1st page in another language (Note: the 1st language code is required, unless param 'qid' is present)", "type": "line", "suggested": true }, "3": { "label": "1st page", "description": "Title of the page in the 1st other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title", "suggested": true }, "4": { "label": "2nd language code", "description": "Language code for the 2nd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "5": { "label": "2nd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 2nd other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "6": { "label": "3rd language code", "description": "Language code for the 3rd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "7": { "label": "3rd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 3rd other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title", "type": "line" }, "8": { "label": "4th language code", "description": "Language code for the 4th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "9": { "label": "4th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 4th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "10": { "label": "5th language code", "description": "Language code for the 5th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "11": { "label": "5th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 5th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "12": { "label": "6th language code", "description": "Language code for the 6th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "13": { "label": "6th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 6th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "14": { "label": "7th language code", "description": "Language code for the 7th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "15": { "label": "7th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 7th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "16": { "label": "8th language code", "description": "Language code for the 8th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "17": { "label": "8th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 8th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "18": { "label": "9th language code", "description": "Language code for the 9th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "19": { "label": "9th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 9th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "20": { "label": "10th language code", "description": "Language code for the 10th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "21": { "label": "10th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 10th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "22": { "label": "11th language code", "description": "Language code for the 11th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "23": { "label": "11th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 11th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "24": { "label": "12th language code", "description": "Language code for the 12th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "25": { "label": "12th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 12th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "lt": { "label": "Link text", "description": "Text displayed for the link to the Wikipedia in Luganda article, if not the same as the article title.

The intent is to provide readers with options to research further into topics not yet covered by Wikipedia in Luganda. The intent is ''not'' to catalogue every foreign-language article; while there is no general consensus when this template should be used, or what languages should be linked when an article missing in Luganda is present in several other language Wikipedias, more than 2 or 3 links are rarely needed. This template adds additional links to one or more foreign-language Wikipedias to the end of a [[WP:RED|red link]] in order to both provide readers additional information provided by those languages and give editors additional resources when starting a new article on the topic. If and when an article on the red-linked topic is created, this template will only show the normal blue link to the page (i.e. the foreign-language links will be removed); the template can then be replaced by the [[H:WIKILINK|standard wikilink]], either manually or by [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Cewbot|a bot account]]. Alternatively, the template provides a link to [[WP:WD|WikiData]].{{efn|See the {{para|qid}} parameter. This functionality previously existed as its own separate template, {{tl|Interlanguage link Wikidata}}.}} This template should not be used when an article on a topic already exists, {{em|except}} when the link is a [[WP:redirect|redirect]] pointing to an article that [[:Category:Redirects with possibilities|potentially could be changed]] into its own article. See {{slink||Limitations and known issues}} for other restrictions and caveats. ==Usage== :''Note: all examples on this page will use {{tnull|ill}}, the main [[Wikipedia:Shortcut|template shortcut]] for this template'' {{t|ill}} takes at a minimum two parameters (the "Basic syntax") for linking to a single foreign language, but it can be expanded to include multiple languages (see {{section link|List_of_Wikipedias#Wikipedia_editions}} for the full list of codes). Formatting of the link (e.g. bold, italics, quotes) and display options (e.g. [[WP:PIPE|piping links]]) are described in the {{slink||Parameters}} and {{slink||Examples}} sections below. ;Basic syntax (one language, same title): :{{tlc|ill|''Luganda article title'' |''language code''}} When only a single foreign language link is required and the title at the target language is the same as in Luganda, all that is required in the template is the name of the article and the language code. For example, the German rapper Estikay does not have an article on the Wikipedia in Luganda but there is one on the German Wikipedia; to indicate that we would use {{tlc|ill|Estikay|de|_show_result=yes}}. ;Basic syntax (one language, different title) :{{tlc|ill|''Luganda article title''|''language code''|''title in foreign language''}} When only a single foreign language link is required, but the title at the target language is {{em|not}} the same as in Luganda, the title of the foreign language article needs to be included. This often occurs an article title contains a word that would normally be translated, for example {{tlc|ill|Hooglede town hall|nl|Gemeentehuis van Hooglede|_show_result=yes}}. ;Two (or more) languages, same title :<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>ill|''Luganda article title''|''language 1 code''||''language 2 code''||''language 3 code''||...}}</code> If there are two or more languages using the same title as the proposed Luganda redlink, the foreign language names are not required. <code><nowiki>{{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}} Note: Redirects appear as blue links while foreign-language links are still shown. For example, {{-r|casa}} is a redirect and thus <code><nowiki>{{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}</nowiki></code> → {{ill|casa|es||it||ro}}. ;Two (or more) languages, different title :{{tlc|ill|''Luganda article title''|''language 1 code''|''Title in language 1''|''language 2 code''|''Title in language 2''|...}} If there are two or more languages, but with a different title as the proposed Luganda redlink, the foreign language names are required {{tlc|ill|Ropsha Palace|de|Ropscha-Palast|fr|Palais de Ropcha|ru|Ропшинский дворец|_show_result=yes}} === Alternatives === Please see [[Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links]] for several ways you can add interlanguage links, of which this template is only one method, albeit the recommended one. For use at the top of a section in the role where a {{t|Further}} link might normally be used, the template {{t|Further ill}} is available with similar functionality to this template for linking foreign Wikipedia articles. ==Parameters== Parameters for this template come in four groups: * A: one parameter (always required) to specify the page title of the (as yet) non-existent article in Luganda; this normally appears as a [[WP:Red link|red link]] * B: parameters specifying the foreign Wikipedia page(s), either by [[meta:Table of Wikimedia projects|Wikipedia language code]] and pagename (these come in pairs), or by a [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]] (a single id may link many foreign Wikipedia pages) * C: optional link text, for altering what text is used for the link * D: optional stylistic parameters, for modifying how the link (or links) appear on the page '''group A''' – a '''page title''' of a proposed new article for Wikipedia in Luganda; should comply with [[WP:Article title]] policy. * {{para|1}} – the proposed page title. This must be a [[WP:RED|red link]] or a [[Template:R with possibilities|redirect with possibilities]]. (If it isn't, do not use this template.) '''Required.''' {{anchor|paired positional parameters}} '''group B''' – specification of corresponding foreign Wikipedia page(s); up to 16 pairs of ''lang-code + page-title'', or else a single [[Wikidata item|wikidata id]]. Either qid *or* positional param {{para|2}} '''must''' be specified. * '''Paired positional params''' {{para|2}} and {{para|3}}, through {{para|32}} and {{para|33}}; the second item of each pair may be empty if the foreign pagename is the same as the param 1: ** <code>2</code> and <code>3</code> – the [[m:Template:List of language names ordered by code|language code]] and page to link to article(s) on [[List of Wikipedias|foreign Wikipedia]](s). '''Required''' unless {{para|qid}} is used. ** <code>4</code> and <code>5</code> – a second lang-code and page to link to on a foreign wikipedia. Optional. If 5 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. ** <code>6</code> and <code>7</code> – a third lang-code/page pair, to link a foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 7 is missing, it takes the value of param 1. **: and so on, up through: ** <code>32</code> and <code>33</code> – last lang-code + page pair, to link one foreign Wikipedia article. Optional. If 33 is missing, it takes the value of param 1 * or '''Wikidata id''' – use of this parameter overrides any positional parameters: ** {{anchor|qid}} {{para|qid}} – the [[Wikipedia:Wikidata#Access from Wikipedia|Wikidata item identifier]] corresponding to existing article(s) on other Wikipedias. The qid param replaces all of the paired parameters listed above in this group. See [[Wikipedia:Finding a Wikidata ID]] for help in locating a qid from an existing Wikipedia article that is linked from Wikidata. Alternatively, you can search for a qid directly at Wikidata by using the search box at the top of any Wikidata page and searching for a likely label, like [https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?search=Basil+of+Luni&language=en&title=Special%3ASearch&ns0=1 this ''Basil of Luni'' search]. The qid should appear in the search results. '''group C''' – '''altering link text''' changing the text of the link (named param, optional): * {{para|lt|...}} – turns the red Luganda link into a [[WP:PIPE|piped link]] using the given text; ('lt' stands for "link text". There is no long form, i.e. you cannot use {{para|link text}}). '''group D''' – '''stylistic parameters''' for formatting the output (all named params, and all optional): * {{para|italics|yes}} – italicizes the display text (but not the language links) (Alias: <code>italic</code>) * {{para|quote|yes}} – embed the linked param 1 article name in double quotes (language links remain outside) (Alias: <code>quotes</code>) * {{para|nobold|yes}} – force language links to be [[font weight|normal weight]], even if the template is embedded in a line of bolded text * {{para|valign|...}} – values: {{pval|sub}} (below the baseline), {{pval|sup}} (above the baseline), or {{pval|ib}} (none). (Alias: <code>v</code>) * {{para|preserve|yes}} – force language links to display even if param 1 points to an existing article (Alias: <code>display</code>) * {{anchor|short}}{{para|short|yes}} – when {{para|qid}} is in use, shorten the link from '[{{blue|wikidata}}]' to just '[{{blue|wd}}]'. (Alias: <code>s</code>) ==Examples== ===Altering link text=== To create a [[WP:piped link|piped link]] (text displayed that is different from the title of the page to which the text links), use the {{para|lt}} parameter (for '''l'''ink '''t'''ext). This is mainly useful if [[WP:disambiguation|disambiguation]] is necessary, but can be used for any reason where a piped link would make sense. *{{tlc|ill|David Cannon McConnel|lt{{=}}David|qid{{=}}Q21536696}} (used in the phrase "David and Mary McConnel" in [[Bulimba House]]) *{{tlc|ill|Capture of Berlin (1813)|lt{{=}}1813 Capture of Berlin|ru|Атака Берлина отрядами Чернышёва и Теттенборна (1813)|_show_result=yes}} *{{tlc|ill|Takashi Onishi (scientist)|lt{{=}}Takashi Onishi|ja|大西隆|_show_result=yes}} ([[Takashi Onishi]] is a football player) *{{tlc|ill|Yuri Smirnov (physicist)|lt{{=}}Yuri Smirnov|ru|Смирнов, Юрий Николаевич (физик)|_show_result=yes}} ([[Yuri Smirnov]] is a disambiguation page) *{{tlc|ill|Grünbein (Argentine town)|es|Grünbein|lt{{=}}Grünbein|_show_result=yes}} In the last example above, a disambiguator is added because {{-r|Grünbein}} is a redirect, and while (like {{-r|casa}}) this will still show the language codes as {{ill|Grünbein|es}}, the redirect points to [[Durs Grünbein]] which is entirely unrelated to the Argentine town. [[:en:MOS:CIRCULAR|Circular redirects]] are another redirect case where it may make more sense to artificially create a redlink until such time as the redirect can be converted into an article, though this is not required; see {{slink||Circular redirects}} below for more information and an example. ===Stylistic parameters=== {| class="wikitable" !Parameter !!

Add a WikiData link to a concept where no quality article could be found in any language, but normally only through InfoBoxes or similar templates. WikiData links are also useful for red link lists in user or project space, and for identification purposes and to establish the initial connection to an already established piece of infrastructure elsewhere. ; When and where not to supply a WikiData link? When several foreign-language articles about a subject exists, the general reader is much better served by you hand-picking a few quality articles, than by a WikiData link. Remember, this template is not intended to supplant the existing interlanguage link functionality ([[WP:ILLSIDEBAR]]): most readers are much more at ease with the idea to visit a foreign-language article and then using the language sidebar or drop-down to find every language covering a subject, than to navigate the WikiData user interface. ==Limitations and known issues== === Automated removal === You can remove the template when a red link turns blue, and it is no longer needed. However, there is no need to remember to do so, because [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] does this automatically for you, replacing the template with a plain wikilink. A possible downside of removing the template is loss of linkage to foreign articles in case the Wikipedia in Luganda article is later deleted. In that case, the blue wikilink will become a [[WP:REDLINK|red link]], where an {{t|ill}} template would re-emerge with visually apparent blue link(s) to foreign article(s). {{Respond|orangeexclamation|Please be aware}} [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] '''removes''' this template when it detects the target article has been created on Wikipedia in Luganda, converting {{tl|ill}} links to regular (blue) links.{{efn|name=preserve|Use {{para|preserve}} or its alias {{para|display}} to show the language links even if the Wikipedia in Luganda page exists. Using either parameter also eliminates the expensive parser function call. {{U|Cewbot}} will NOT convert this template into a regular link if either parameter is set. Cewbot will also not convert this template into a regular link if the Wikipedia in Luganda page exists but is a redirect back to the same page where the template appears; i.e. [[#Circular redirects]].}} === Circular redirects === If the topic you are trying to provide interlanguage links for already exists on Wikipedia in Luganda as a redirect, '''and this redirect points back to the article you are trying to edit''', this template might [[WP:ASTONISH|astonish]] readers; they expect a blue link to lead to an Luganda-language article, but all they get is the same page reloaded. Attempts have been made for the {{tl|Interlanguage link}} template to automatically detect this, but currently none are functional. {{slink|Help:Interlanguage links#Inline links}} has other linking options, but if this template is to be used, the best option is to artificially create a red link using a reasonable disambiguator. For example, {{-r|Helen Reef}} points to [[Hatohobei]], so instead of using {{ill|Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}} on the Hatohobei page it may be better to use {{ill|Helen Reef (atoll)|lt=Helen Reef|be|Хелен|fr|Helen Reef|nl|Helen Reef}}, where the editor has made up a new red link target: [[Helen Reef (atoll)]] - this phrasing should tell other editors what subject the link is intended to cover if and when created. Please use these two versions of the Hatohobei article to compare: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=1339802168#Islands version with a circular redirect] ({{cross}} avoid) and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=1339990136#Islands version with an artificial red link] ({{tick}} better). Do note that if an article about the atoll is written, either the artificial red link will need to be created as a redirect or the [[Hatohobei]] article will need to be edited to convert the {{tlc|ill}} call into a regular wikilink. In other words, there is no perfect solution; if the circular redirect is avoided, manual editing will be necessary if and when that redirect is expanded into a proper article, regardless of whether this template or another method is used. Interlanguage links that are circular redirects are not converted by [[:User:Cewbot|Cewbot]] into regular links. === Expensive parser call === {{Main|Help:Template limits#Expensive parser function calls}} Avoid filling an article with dozens or hundreds of instances of this template. See {{slink||Alternatives}} for alternative ways to display interlanguage links that avoids articles that mostly consist of {{tl|ill}} links. === In other Wikipedias === The Manual of Style in Spanish Wikipedia, and perhaps others, deprecates interlanguage links in live articles, and therefore the local version of this template ([[:es:Plantilla:ill]]) is disabled for main (article) space. It still works for discussion pages, for example. === Interactions with other templates === In the [[Wikipedia:main namespace|main namespace]], when using this template with the <code>{{t|lang}}</code> template, use <code>|cat=no</code> or <code>|nocat=yes</code> to remove the hidden category that <code><nowiki>{{lang}}</nowiki></code> creates. :{{cross}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|cat=no}}}}</nowiki></code> :{{tick}} <code><nowiki>{{ill|Machsor Lipsiae|de|lt={{lang|he-LA|Machsor Lipsiae|nocat=yes}}}}</nowiki></code> This template '''should not be used in [[WP:Citation templates|citation templates]]''' such as [[Help:Citation Style 1|Citation Style 1]] and [[Help:Citation Style 2|Citation Style 2]], because it includes markup that will pollute the [[COinS]] metadata they produce; see [[Wikipedia:COinS]]. === Non-existent foreign article === On Wikipedia, links to non-existent pages {{em|normally}} show as [[WP:REDLINK|red links]]. However, this functionality only works within the Wikipedia site you're viewing. There is no way for this template, or any code on Wikipedia, to check [[mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##ifexist|whether an article on another language's Wikipedia exists]]. Links to all foreign-language articles, including non-existent foreign-language articles, show as blue links when constructed. For example, both <code><nowiki>[[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:Maman ne le sait pas|Maman ne le sait pas]] (exists) and <code><nowiki>[[:fr:no such article|no such article]]</nowiki></code> → [[:fr:no such article|no such article]] (does not exist) display in the same blue color. In other words, editors should take care to ensure the language codes they use actually correspond to an existing article; {{tlc|ill|no such article|fr|_show_result=yes}} does no one any good. ==TemplateData== {{collapse top|[[Wikipedia:TemplateData|TemplateData]] documentation used by [[Wikipedia:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] and other tools}} {{TemplateData header}} <templatedata> { "params": { "1": { "label": "Article name", "description": "Name of the Wikipedia in Luganda page, or suggested name if the page does not exist", "type": "wiki-page-name", "required": true, "suggested": true }, "2": { "label": "1st language code", "description": "Language code for the 1st page in another language (Note: the 1st language code is required, unless param 'qid' is present)", "type": "line", "suggested": true }, "3": { "label": "1st page", "description": "Title of the page in the 1st other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title", "suggested": true }, "4": { "label": "2nd language code", "description": "Language code for the 2nd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "5": { "label": "2nd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 2nd other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "6": { "label": "3rd language code", "description": "Language code for the 3rd page in another language", "type": "line" }, "7": { "label": "3rd page", "description": "Title of the page in the 3rd other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title", "type": "line" }, "8": { "label": "4th language code", "description": "Language code for the 4th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "9": { "label": "4th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 4th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "10": { "label": "5th language code", "description": "Language code for the 5th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "11": { "label": "5th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 5th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "12": { "label": "6th language code", "description": "Language code for the 6th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "13": { "label": "6th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 6th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "14": { "label": "7th language code", "description": "Language code for the 7th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "15": { "label": "7th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 7th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "16": { "label": "8th language code", "description": "Language code for the 8th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "17": { "label": "8th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 8th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "18": { "label": "9th language code", "description": "Language code for the 9th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "19": { "label": "9th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 9th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "20": { "label": "10th language code", "description": "Language code for the 10th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "21": { "label": "10th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 10th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "22": { "label": "11th language code", "description": "Language code for the 11th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "23": { "label": "11th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 11th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "24": { "label": "12th language code", "description": "Language code for the 12th page in another language", "type": "line" }, "25": { "label": "12th page", "description": "Title of the page in the 12th other language, if not the same as the Wikipedia in Luganda page", "type": "line", "default": "Wikipedia in Luganda article title" }, "lt": { "label": "Link text", "description": "Text displayed for the link to the Wikipedia in Luganda article, if not the same as the article title.

Additionally, this template ''automatically'' senses, describes, categorizes and changes [[WP:PP|protection levels]] when appropriate. A third important function is to help editors learn more about redirect categorization by use of the {{c|Miscellaneous redirects|manifold sort}}. For more information see the page below and the [[WP:TMR|main rcat '''index''']]. __TOC__ ==Purpose== As with the ''This is a redirect'' template, this template is based on a [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Redirect/Archive 1#New meta-template(s) idea|proposal]] to standardize [[wp:redirect templates|redirect templates]] (rcats). Its basic purpose is to simplify the process of tagging and categorizing redirects. Like the ''This is a redirect'' template, this shell template is also able to help newer contributors learn the redirect category system. Details of this part of the purpose of this shell template may be found in the [[#When used alone|When used alone]] section below. Protection levels are automatically detected by this template by use of {{tl|pp-protected}} and {{tl|pp-move}}. When edit protection or move protection (or both) is applied to a redirect that has been tagged with this template, the protection level is automatically detected, and the redirect will be tagged with a protection rcat and sorted to the appropriate protection-related category(ies). When protection is altered or removed, then the protection-related rcats and category(ies) will also be (automatically) changed or removed from the redirect. This template can categorize and display the text (with parameters) of any number of rcats that are needed (usually from one to seven).<br /> <ref name="mbox" group="Mbox note">When the wiki markup of this template is opened, it is seen that this is an "mbox-based" template. "Mbox" stands for "multi namespace message box", which is a meta-[[Help:A quick guide to templates|template]] that works in all namespaces. There can be a problem with this mbox unless editors are careful to place ''Redirect category shell'' '''on its own line at the ''very beginning of the line'''''. If this is done then all is well; if this is not done, then [[HTML Tidy]] may interfere with the mbox and cause this template to appear in an abnormal and unexpected manner when saved. So be careful where you leave this template placed in a redirect's Edit screen, take another look at the above [[#goodread|readability guide]], and be sure to preview your edits – all your edits. : '''{{green|Correct:}}''' <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> #REDIRECT [[(target page)]] {{Redirect category shell|| {{R unprintworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> : '''{{red|''Not'' correct:}}''' <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> #REDIRECT [[(target page)]] {{Redirect category shell||{{R unprintworthy}}}} </syntaxhighlight> : ''A blank line is usually placed between the redirect target and this template to make the "Edit" screen easier to read.''</ref> <ref name="printworthiness" group="Printworthiness note">Where the [[WP:printworthiness|printworthiness]] of a [[WP:mainspace|mainspace]] redirect is concerned, there are three kinds of [[WP:RCAT|rcat]]s: # those that populate the {{c|Printworthy redirects}} category by default, # those that populate the {{c|Unprintworthy redirects}} category by default, and # those that do not default to either of the above, and which leave it to the editor to decide based upon best knowledge whether or not a mainspace redirect is suitable for a printed or DVD version of ''Wikipedia''. At present, those that are types 1 and 2 will populate the appropriate printworthiness category, however the notice will not appear within the mbox of this template unless either {{tl|R printworthy}} or {{tl|R unprintworthy}} is listed as an rcat within this template. For example, if a redirect is tagged with: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell| {{R from ambiguous term}} }} </syntaxhighlight> ...then the hidden categories populated will be {{c|Redirects from ambiguous pages}}, {{c|Unprintworthy redirects}} and any appropriate protection categories. These will appear at the bottom of the redirect page only to registered users who are logged in and who have set their preferences to see hidden categories. The mbox that will appear to all readers would look like: {{Redirect category shell| {{R from ambiguous term/demo|embed=yes}} }} To show the printability or printworthiness information in the mbox, then the redirect must be tagged with either the printworthy or unprintworthy rcat as in the following example: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell| {{R from ambiguous term}} {{R unprintworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> ...which produces: {{Redirect category shell| {{R from ambiguous term/demo|embed=yes}} {{R unprintworthy|embed=yes}} }} '''''Only then''' will the printability, ''printworthy'' or ''unprintworthy'', be described within this template's mbox on the redirect page.''</ref> ==Usage== Used by itself with no parameters, for example, {{tlc|Redirect category shell}} (and its alias {{tlc|Rcat shell}}), the template will appear as it does at the top of this page, and the redirect will populate {{Cat|Miscellaneous redirects}}. That category will also be populated if the first parameter is left empty while rcats occupy the second parameter. This is useful when an editor adds rcats and yet feels unsure that there may be at least one other rcat with category that may be used to tag the redirect. Monitors of the ''Miscellaneous redirects'' category will then help decide if another rcat(s) is needed. Then the empty first parameter may be excluded by removing either the first or second pipe. That will remove the redirect from ''Category:Miscellaneous redirects''. [[#When used alone|See below]] for more information. This template may hold any number of different redirect category ([[WP:RCAT|rcat]]) templates, usually from one to seven. The choices for editors are listed at [[Wikipedia:Template index/Redirect pages]] both alphabetically and by function. Any of those rcats may be used either with their full template name, e.g., '''R from alternative language''', or with an alias (shortcut redirect), which may be found in each rcat's [[WP:TDOC|documentation]]. An unnamed parameter, {{para|1}}, has been introduced in this template and works as follows: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell|1= {{rcat 1}} {{rcat 2}} {{rcat 3}} {{rcat N}} }} </syntaxhighlight> : ''or'' the {{code|1{{=}}}} may be omitted: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell| {{rcat 1}} {{rcat 2}} {{rcat 3}} {{rcat N}} }} </syntaxhighlight> As with all templates that have unnamed (numbered) parameters, the numbers and equal signs may be omitted. "N" represents the highest number of rcats that can be used in this template, and at this point the only limit would be any wiki markup ceiling that may exist. Usually, from one to seven rcats suffice; however, more rcats can be used if required. The actual sequence of rcats is left to editors – there is no priority as to which rcat should be "first" and which rcats should "follow" in any particular order. A second unnamed parameter, {{para|2}}, has also been introduced. This gives this template the same "help" functionality that is used in the ''This is a redirect'' template. If the first parameter is left "empty", then {{cat|Miscellaneous redirects}} will be populated: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell|1=|2= {{rcat 1}} {{rcat 2}} {{rcat N}} }} </syntaxhighlight> :''or'' if a second pipe is placed directly after the first pipe, then that will accomplish the same manifold sort: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell|| {{rcat 1}} {{rcat 2}} {{rcat N}} }} </syntaxhighlight> Note the double pipe after the word "shell" above, which indicates an empty first parameter. Editors who monitor the ''Miscellaneous redirects'' category will come to the redirect and check, add or remove rcats as needed. Also, when used by itself this template will appear as it does at the top of this page and populate the ''Miscellaneous redirects'' category: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell}} </syntaxhighlight> {{anchor|goodread}} This template may be added to a redirect page in the following manner: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> #REDIRECT [[(target page name)]] {{Redirect category shell|| {{R from short name}} {{R unprintworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> : It can be noted here that the rcats can also go on the same line as the ''Redirect category shell'' template: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> #REDIRECT [[(target page name)]] {{Redirect category shell||{{R from short name}}{{R unprintworthy}}}} </syntaxhighlight> : Again, note the double pipe after "shell" above, which indicates an empty first parameter. Leave the first parameter empty to sort a redirect to {{cat|Miscellaneous redirects}} ''in addition to'' the categories of the rcats that are used. In this case the {{c|Redirects from short names}} and {{c|Unprintworthy redirects}} categories will also be populated. Monitors of the "Miscellaneous redirects" category will help editors when needed. Generally for good readability on the edit screen, this template is placed beginning on the third line of that screen as follows: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> Line 1: #REDIRECT [[(target page name)]] </syntaxhighlight> Line 2: {{red|<small>(please leave this line blank for emphasis and ease of reading by editors)</small>}} <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> Line 3: {{Redirect category shell|{{R from move}}{{R to section}}{{R printworthy}}}} </syntaxhighlight> : ''See also: section titled '''[[#Mbox-based|Mbox note]]''' below.'' === Parameters === In addition to the unnamed {{para|1}} and {{para|2}} parameters, there is a "hatnote" parameter, {{para|h}}, which provides an italicized TOP note when needed. For example: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell|h=This code has not been confirmed as an [[International Air Transport Association airport code|IATA]] airport code.| {{R from airport code}} }} </syntaxhighlight> ...uses the rcat {{tl|R from airport code}} and produces:<!-- Note: An Mbox is used below rather than the template to illustrate the error box, which only appears on redirect pages. --> {{Mbox | name = This is a redirect/rcat | type = move | image = none | style = margin-top: 1.1em; border: solid 1px darkblue; border-left-width: 0.5em; | textstyle = padding-top: 0.9em; padding-bottom: 0.9em; | text = '''This page is a [[Wikipedia:Redirect|redirect]]. <small>The following [[Wikipedia:Categorizing redirects|categories]] are used to track and monitor this redirect:</small>''' :: ''This code has not been confirmed as an [[International Air Transport Association airport code|IATA]] airport code.'' * {{R from airport code|embed=yes}} {{Ombox|type=content|image=[[File:Stop hand orange.svg|50px]]|text={{Error|The above [[WP:RCAT|rcat]] should only be used to categorize redirects that are in the ''[[WP:main|main]]'' namespace.}}}} ''<small>When appropriate, [[WP:PP|protection levels]] are automatically sensed, described and categorized.</small>'' }} :An error box appears that illustrates what happens if an editor uses an rcat in the wrong namespace. Correct namespaces are found on individual rcat documentation pages. In addition to the error box, the redirect '''''will not''''' be sorted to the rcat's category; instead it will populate '''''{{cat|Pages with templates in the wrong namespace}}!''' ''If an error box appears when an edit is '''previewed''', then appropriate changes can be made ''before'' the redirect page is actually '''saved'''. :Also, note the pipe symbol ''(|)'' that follows the text in the {{para|h}} parameter. If this pipe is omitted, very unusual results will be seen when your edit is previewed or saved. Be sure to include that pipe at the very end of the text if the {{para|h}} parameter is used to form a hatnote. ==== Rcat parameters ==== In addition to this template's ability to act as a shell template for rcats, it accepts all of the parameters that rcats accept. Rcat parameters, when needed, will work in this template as follows: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell| {{R from plural|printworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> This subdues the {{c|Unprintworthy redirects}} category to which {{tl|R from plural}} defaults and populates the {{c|Printworthy redirects}} category instead. The position an rcat holds will have no effect on the parameters of other rcats that are used to tag a redirect: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="font-size:95%;overflow:auto;"> {{Redirect category shell| {{R from move}} {{R from modification}} {{R from alternative name}} {{R from alternative language|en|es}} {{R for convenience}} {{R from plural|printworthy}} {{R printworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> In the above example, {{tl|R from plural}} is the sixth rcat, and its first parameter is used to change from "unprintworthy" to "printworthy". {{tl|R from alternative language}}) holds the 4th position, and its first parameter is used to house the [[Wikipedia:Template messages/Redirect language codes|ISO 639 language code]] of the source language, in this case '''<code>{{nbsp}}en{{nbsp}}</code>''' for [[English language|English]]. Its second parameter houses the language code for the targeted page, in this case '''<code>{{nbsp}}es{{nbsp}}</code>''' for the [[Spanish language]]. It does not matter if the relative position of these rcats changes for any reason, their individual parameters will continue to be effective. If more rcat parameters are used, then they work the same way. For example, if a redirect exists that is a misspelling of a title, it can be tagged with {{tl|R from misspelling}} in the following manner: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell| {{R from misspelling|(correct spelling if needed)|printworthy}} {{R printworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> In this case, the rcat's ''{{para|1}}'' parameter is the correct spelling (used only if the target of the redirect is '''not''' the correct spelling). The rcat's ''{{para|2}}'' parameter can be used to change from the default "unprintworthy" categorization. Some misspellings may be helpful in a printed version of ''Wikipedia'', so the second parameter in ''R from misspelling'' above is used to subdue its default "unprintworthy" category sort, and the redirect will populate {{cat|Printworthy redirects}} instead. In this shell template, the order of the rcats will not affect the rcats' parameters. If an editor checks the page history and finds that the above redirect is also the result of a page move and inserts {{tl|R from move}} at the top of the order: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell| {{R from move}} {{R from misspelling|(correct spelling)|printworthy}} {{R printworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> ...the parameters of the ''R from misspelling'' rcat template will not be affected, as they may be when used in the ''This is a redirect'' template. An example of a "printworthy misspelling" can be found at template {{tl|R from misspelling}}. '''Another example:''' <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell| {{R from alternative language|ja|es}} {{R unprintworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> The above code will sort the redirect into three categories: * {{c|Redirects from Japanese-language terms}} ({{para|1|ja}}), * {{c|Redirects to Spanish-language terms}} ({{para|2|es}}) and * {{c|Unprintworthy redirects}} ''See the lists of [[List of ISO 639-1 codes|ISO 639-1]] and [[List of ISO 639-2 codes|ISO 639-2]] codes for two- and three-letter language codes that can be used this way. See also [[Wikipedia:Template messages/Redirect language codes]] for common codes that are already used on redirects.'' === When used alone === This template is designed to help contributors who are unfamiliar with categorizing redirects by enabling them to sort redirects into the monitored {{c|Miscellaneous redirects}} category. Do not hesitate to use this important function to help with sorting redirects to correct and appropriate categories. There are two ways to sort a redirect into the ''Miscellaneous redirects category''. When this template is used without any rcats, it will perform the miscellaneous sort: {{tlx|Redirect category shell}}... {{Redirect category shell|nocat=true}} Also, if one or more rcats are known, but an editor is unsure that there might be one or more ''other'' rcats that are needed, then leave the first parameter blank (type two pipes together → <code>||</code>): <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell|| {{R from subtopic}} {{R printworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> {{Redirect category shell|nocat=true|| {{R from subtopic|embed=yes}} {{R printworthy|embed=yes}} }} Monitors of the ''Miscellaneous redirects'' category will check the redirect, add other rcats if needed and then remove the empty first parameter. ==Comparison== [[Template:Redirect category shell/Comparison]] shows the difference in the appearance of text between when individual rcats are used and when this template is used. ==Other templates== This template may also carry and hold other templates within it. Even the {{tl|DEFAULTSORT}} magic word and a [[WP:sort key|sort key]] may be used either inside this template or below it. Another template commonly used within the ''Redirect category shell'' template is {{tl|Italic title}} and its shortcut to format titles in italics. Some rcats such as {{tl|R from book}} and {{tl|R from film}} automatically format the redirect names in italics. Any appropriate template may be used within this shell template in the following manner: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Redirect category shell| {{R from move}} {{R from alternative name}} {{Italic title}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Hobbit, The}} }} </syntaxhighlight> ==Notes== {{anchor|Mbox-based}} '''Mbox note''' {{Reflist|group="Mbox note"}} '''Printworthiness note''' {{See also|Wikipedia:Printability}} {{Reflist|group="Printworthiness note"}} ==See also== * {{tl|Talk page of a redirect}}, to "[[WP:SRD|soft]]" redirect a [[WP:subject page|subject page]]'s talk page that has already been created '''''and given content''''' (project banners, deletion/merge notices, discussions) * [[Wikipedia:Protection policy]], for questions related to this template's ability to detect protection levels * [[Wikipedia:Template index/Redirect pages]], a functional and an alphabetical index of rcats * [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Redirect/Style guide|WikiProject Redirect/Style guide]] ==Tracking categories== * {{clc|Redirect category shell without parameters}} ==TemplateData== {{TemplateData header}} <templatedata> { "params": { "1": { "label": "Redirect categories", "description": "1 or more redirect category templates.", "example": "{{R from alternative name}}", "type": "content", "suggested": true }, "2": { "label": "Redirect categories (more needed)", "description": "Same as Redirect categories, except that the redirect is also added to Category:Miscellaneous redirects.", "type": "content" }, "h": { "label": "Hatnote", "description": "A hatnote to display above the redirect categories.", "type": "line" }, "nocat": { "label": "No category", "description": "Don't add this redirect to Category:Miscellaneous redirects, even if Redirect categories has been left empty.", "type": "boolean" }, "category": { "label": "Category", "description": "The category to add this redirect to if the Redirect categories parameter is empty.

Please only use it when something is seriously wrong and other people might not otherwise know about it. |<!--DEFAULT:-->{{strong|significant}} information for which a more specific template doesn't exist. }} Less important comments should be put as regular text on the page's talk page instead. ==Usage== {{tlx|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|1{{=}}Place notice text here.|heading{{=}}Optional heading above the text}} This box automatically changes its style depending on what kind of page it appears; see {{tl|Mbox}} for details, and view the examples below for demonstrations. ===Use in talk and userspace=== Outside "important" locations like mainspace, policy pages, and noticeboards, this message box can also be used on other pages in a more relaxed way, such as on the top of talk page alerts, WikiProject pages, userspace pages, etc. Talk and noticeboard cases should probably include your [[WP:Signature|signature]] at the end of the template's main content. ===Optional parameters === The box can be titled with an optional {{para|heading}} (or {{para|header}} or {{para|title}}). This is left-aligned by default. This:<br /> {{in5}}<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |heading=Heading |[[Lorem ipsum|Lorem ipsum]] dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces an all-left notice: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=main |heading=Heading |style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} It can be hard to notice or read short heading and/or message on a wide monitor when they centered. For long content, it can be centered with {{para|align|center}}.<br />{{small|1=[While {{para|align|right}} is a valid value, it will only be useful when this template is ported to right-to-left language Wikipedias, and shouldn't be used on English Wikipedia or it will be difficult to read.]}}<br /> This:<br /> {{in5}}<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |heading=Heading |align=center |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=main |heading=Heading |style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |align=center |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} A shorthand parameter to center the heading and main text at the same time is {{para|center|y}}. This:<br /> {{in5}}<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |heading=Heading |center=y |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=main |heading=Heading |style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |center=y |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} The parameter {{para|textstyle}} can be used to pass arbitrary inline CSS to the main note content. For example, one could center small-caps text below a left-aligned heading; this:<br /> {{in5}}<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |heading=Heading |textstyle=text-align:center; font-variant:small-caps; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=main |heading=Heading |style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |textstyle=text-align:center; font-variant:small-caps;|Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} Similarly, the parameter {{para|headstyle}} can be used to pass arbitrary inline CSS to the heading content. For example, one could center a red heading above a left-aligned message; this:<br /> {{in5}}<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |heading=Heading |headstyle=text-align:center; color:red; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=main |heading=Heading |style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |headstyle=text-align:center; color:red;|Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} The message box can also take an {{para|image}} parameter (with a value of just the bare filename of the image, without <code>File:...</code>, <code>Image:...</code>, or markup), but this is discouraged in articles. For an example of its use, see below. See [[#Talk pages]], below for the talkpage-only {{para|small|y}} parameter. See also [[#Adding an image, shortcuts, etc., on the righthand side]] for additional parameters that work in talk and project pages but not articles. ===Articles=== : <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=main|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} ===Talk pages=== On talk pages, <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=talk|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} You may also set the talkpage-only parameter {{para|small|yes}}, which alters the template's appearance thus: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=talk |small=yes |header=Header |style=text-align:center;<!--margin-bottom:2.0em;--> |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} : <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |small=yes |header=Header |style=text-align:center; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>&nbsp;produces&nbsp;...... {{clear}} Setting the {{para|image}} parameter changes the image shown on the lefthand side of the template. : <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |image=Codex icon InfoFilled blue.svg |heading=Heading |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> : <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |image=Codex icon Clock blue.svg |heading=Heading |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=main<!--|style=margin-bottom:2.0em;--> |image=Codex icon InfoFilled blue.svg |heading=Heading |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=main<!--|style=margin-bottom:2.0em;--> |image=Codex icon Clock blue.svg |heading=Heading |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} (Note the effect of omitting {{para|style|text-align:center;}} here) ===File and category pages=== <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> on a File: page would produce... {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=file|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} ... and, on a Category: page, would produce: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=category|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} ===Other pages=== On other pages, such as those in the [[Wikipedia:User pages|User:]], [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia namespace|Wikipedia:]] and [[Wikipedia:Help namespace|Help:]] [[Wikipedia:Namespaces|namespaces]], <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> would produce: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|demospace=wikipedia|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} ===External links and equals signs=== In most cases, external links can be used in the template without any complications. If a link &ndash;&nbsp;or any text&nbsp;&ndash; contains one or more equals signs (" &#61; "), however, everything before the first sign will be interpreted as the name of a parameter. To prevent this, name the text carrying the link as the first numbered parameter: : <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |1=Any text/links including "=" should now be interpreted correctly.<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |1=Any text/links including "=" should now be interpreted correctly.}} ===Adding an image, shortcuts, etc., on the righthand side=== To add shortcuts, images, other templates, etc. to the righthand side of the template, use {{para|imageright}}. This does not work in articles. For example,<br /><code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |imageright=<nowiki>[[File:Wiki letter w.svg|40px]] |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. |imageright=[[File:Wiki letter w.svg|40px]]}} <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |imageright=<nowiki>{{Shortcuts|You|Me}} |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...}}</nowiki></code> includes the {{tl|Shortcut}}s template providing links to [[You]] and [[Me]]: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |imageright={{Shortcut|You|Me}} |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} ====Alternate shortcut option==== As an alternative to imageright, the {{para|shortcut}} (or {{para|shortcut1}}) and {{para|shortcut''N''}} parameters (where {{nowrap|''N'' {{=}} 2}} to 5) may be used to display shortcuts. For instance, <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |shortcut1=One |shortcut2=Two |shortcut3=Three |shortcut4=Four |shortcut5=Five |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |shortcut1=One |shortcut2=Two |shortcut3=Three |shortcut4=Four |shortcut5=Five |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} ''Note: If both imageright and any of the shorcut parameters are used, the contents of imageright will override the shortcut/s.'' For example,<br /><code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} |imageright=<nowiki>[[File:Wiki letter w.svg|40px]] |shortcut1=Horse |shortcut2=Dog |shortcut3=Pig |shortcut4=Cow |shortcut5=Umbrella |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|style=margin-bottom:2.0em; |imageright=[[File:Wiki letter w.svg|40px]] |shortcut1=Horse |shortcut2=Dog |shortcut3=Pig |shortcut4=Cow |shortcut5=Umbrella |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}} {{{{BASEPAGENAME}} and warning templates}} <includeonly>{{Sandbox other| | <!-- CATEGORIES BELOW THIS LINE PLEASE; INTERWIKIS AT WIKIDATA --> [[Category:Notice and warning templates]] [[Category:Talk header templates]] <!--[[labconsole:Template:Warning]]--> }}</includeonly> <templatedata> { "params": { "1": { "label": "Contents", "description": "Main content of the notice box", "type": "content", "required": true }, "demospace": {}, "style": {}, "image": {}, "imagealt": {}, "small": {}, "imageright": {}, "shortcut": {}, "shortcut1": {}, "shortcut2": {}, "shortcut3": {}, "shortcut4": {}, "shortcut5": {}, "textstyle": {}, "center": { "label": "Center", "description": "Whether to center the body text", "example": "y", "type": "string", "suggestedvalues": [ "y", "n" ] }, "align": { "type": "string", "suggestedvalues": [ "left", "center", "right" ] }, "header": {}, "heading": { "label": "Heading", "description": "Title of the notice box", "type": "content" }, "title": {}, "headstyle": {}, "text": {}, "content": {}, "reason": {} }, "description": "This is the {{Notice}} message box.

In other words, the code above, if used on Template:Infobox/''page'' (where ''page'' could be "doc", "testcases", etc.), would become: <pre style="overflow:auto;"> {{Parameter names example |title |above |subheader |subheader2 |image |caption |header1 |label2 |data2 |label3 |data3 |header4 |data5 |data6 |below }} </pre> One exception to this is the "sandbox" subpage. If the module is called from a page ending in "/sandbox", it uses that page to generate the template output, not the base page. To override this behaviour you can specify the {{para|_template}} parameter explicitly. The formatting of the parameter names can be changed with the {{para|_display}} parameter. By default, the parameter names are shown in triple braces (the [[m:Help:Templates#Parameters|parameter standard]], e.g. {{{name}}}{{thin space}}), but if {{para|_display|italics}} or {{para|_display|italic}} is set, they are shown in italics. A custom value for a parameter may be supplied by using {{para|[parameter name]|[value]}} in place of <code>|[parameter name]</code>. Any formatting for such a value&nbsp;– including, for instance, italics&nbsp;– must be supplied as part of the value (e.g. {{para|parameter|<nowiki>''value''<br/></nowiki>}}). Custom values cannot be used for parameters whose names begin with an underscore ("_"). == See also == * [[Wikipedia:Template documentation]] * [[Template:Parameters]] and [[Module:Parameters]] – generates a list of parameter names for a given template <includeonly>{{Sandbox other| | <!----Categories below this line, please; interwikis at Wikidata----> [[Category:Wikipedia formatting templates]] [[Category:Template namespace templates]] [[Category:Documentation assistance templates]] }}</includeonly> aqaca08hmh62n1a3d9uargm37ro2kfw 10 13394 50450 2026-05-09T12:30:50Z SyntaxTerror 11090 Redirected page to [[Template:Parameter names example]] 50450 wikitext text/x-wiki #REDIRECT [[Template:Parameter names example]] {{R protected}} [[Category:Wikipedia formatting templates]] [[Category:Template namespace templates]] [[Category:Documentation assistance templates]] pi9a9f1dcnvzzyzzi90v5mp1zxra8sm 10 13395 50451 2026-05-09T12:31:57Z SyntaxTerror 11090 Redirected page to [[Template:Parameter names example]] 50451 wikitext text/x-wiki #REDIRECT [[Template:Parameter names example]] 75l5gi1q5uvg40zs2g1d8md1z1ak42e 828 13396 50452 2026-05-09T12:33:32Z SyntaxTerror 11090 Created page with "require('strict') local cfg = mw.loadData('Module:Sidebar/configuration') local p = {} local getArgs = require('Module:Arguments').getArgs --[[ Categorizes calling templates and modules with a 'style' parameter of any sort for tracking to convert to TemplateStyles.

Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner: ====When using {{tlc|Rcat shell}}==== <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> #REDIRECT [[Target page name]] {{Rcat shell| {{R from alternative name}} }} </syntaxhighlight> : Template {{tl|Rcat shell}} is an [[Wikipedia:Alias|alias]] for the template {{tl|Redirect category shell}}, which may be used to add to a redirect page as many appropriate rcats as needed ''(usually from one to seven)'' along with their parameters in a demarcated place. For more information, see [[Template:Redirect category shell/doc|the documentation on Rcat shell's template page]]. ====When rcats are used individually==== <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> #REDIRECT [[Target page name]] {{R from alternative name}} </syntaxhighlight> : This accords with instructions found at [[Wikipedia:REDCAT]]. * Use this rcat on all redirects from a title that is another name such as a nickname, or a synonym of the target page name. For stage names and other [[pseudonym]]s, use the more specific {{tl|R from pseudonym}} instead. ====Optional parameters==== Either the {{para|of}} or the {{para|1}} parameter can be used to specify the more common name. This is useful when redirecting from an obscure term to a more common one that is a subsection or anchor in a broader article that itself is not the other name of what is being redirected. For example [[Primary research]] redirects to [[Research#Forms of research]], where this subtopic is treated under the term "original research"; the redirect has {{tnull|R from alternative name|of{{=}}original research}}, which adds the following to the first sentence: "(in this case, the more common name is: ''original research'')". Three ways to accomplish this are as follows: * {{tnull|R from alternative name|of{{=}}(alternative name)}} * {{tnull|R from alternative name|1{{=}}(alternative name)}} * {{tnull|R from alternative name|(alternative name)}} ====Aliases==== * <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:R to alternative name|R {{large|'''''to'''''}} alternative name]]}} redirects here and reflects that "alternative" goes both ways. * <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:R_from_alternative_name|hidetrans=1&hidelinks=1&limit=500}} Also known as...]</span> – list of templates that redirect here and may also be used ===Printworthiness=== {{notice|image=Stop hand nuvola.svg|Please do not alter the printworthy settings of this rcat without first notifying the '''[[WP:Version 1.0 Editorial Team|Version 1.0 Editorial Team]]''', who are responsible for any and all materials, including redirects, that go into a printed version of ''Wikipedia''.}} * In the [[Wikipedia:Mainspace|main (article) namespace]], many other-name redirects are considered [[WP:Printworthiness|printworthy]]. However, there are also many that are not printworthy, so there is no default sort for printworthiness. In 2003, efforts were begun to support the [[Wikimedia Foundation]]'s goal of increasing access and availability of ''Wikipedia'' articles in {{diff|Wikipedia:Pushing to 1.0||1319195|printed version}}s. Some rcats automatically populate either {{Cat|Printworthy redirects}} or {{Cat|Unprintworthy redirects}} by default. Others, like this rcat, do not. That means it is up to editors to choose which of those categories, ''Printworthy'' or ''Unprintworthy'', is appropriate and should be populated. The rcats that are used separately to populate those categories are: :* {{tlx|R printworthy}} ''and'' :* {{tlx|R unprintworthy}} ''please click on each one for more details and guidance''. :* Template {{tl|Redirect category shell}} will accept these rcats just like any other; for example: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{Rcat shell| {{R from alternative name}} {{R printworthy}} }} {{Rcat shell| {{R from alternative name}} {{R unprintworthy}} }} </syntaxhighlight> :{{tl|Redirect category shell}} may be used. ===TemplateData=== {{TemplateData header}} <TemplateData> { "description": "Places a redirect in [[Category:Redirects from alternative names]].

I am writing to you to promote a special wiki called [[betawiki:|Betawiki]]. This wiki facilitates the localisation (l10n) of the MediaWiki interface. You may have changed many messages here to use your language in the interface, but if you would log in to for example the Japanese language Wiktionary, you would not be able to use the interface as well translated as here. In fact, of over 1,700 messages in the core of MediaWiki, 187 messages have been translated. Betawiki also supports the translation of messages for well over 100 extensions, with over 1,550 messages. Translators for over 70 languages contribute their work to MediaWiki this way every month. If you wish to contribute to better support of your language in MediaWiki, as well as for many MediaWiki extensions, please visit [[betawiki:Translating:Intro|Betawiki]], [http://translatewiki.net/w/?title=Special:Userlogin&type=signup&uselang=en create an account] and [[betawiki:Betawiki:Rights|request translator privileges]]. You can see the current status of localisation of your language on [[mw:Localisation_statistics|MediaWiki.org]] and do not forget to get in touch with others that may already be [[betawiki:Translating:Languages|working on your language on Betawiki]]. If you have any further questions, [[betawiki:User_talk:Siebrand|please let me know on my talk page on Betawiki]]. We will try and assist you as much as possible, for example by [[betawiki:Import requests|importing]] all messages from a local wiki for you to start with, if you so desire. You can also find us on the Freenode [[w:en:Internet Relay Chat|IRC]] network in the channel #mediawiki-i18n where we would be happy to help you get started. Thank you very much for your attention and I do hope to see some of you on [[betawiki:|Betawiki]] soon! Cheers!

To facilitate [[m:steward|steward]] granting of bot access, I suggest implementing the [[m:Bot policy|standard bot policy]] on this wiki. In particular, this policy allows stewards to automatically flag known interlanguage linking bots (if this page says that is acceptable), which form the vast majority of such requests. The policy also enables [[m:Bot policy#Global_bots|global bots]] on this wiki (if this page says that is acceptable), which are trusted bots that will be given bot access on every wiki that allows global bots. This policy makes bot access requesting much easier for local users, operators, and stewards. To implement it we only need to create a redirect to this page from [[Project:Bot policy]], and add a line at the top noting that it is used here. Please read the text at [[m:Bot policy]] before commenting. If you object, please say so; I hope to implement in one week if there is no objection, since it is particularly written to streamline bot requests on wikis with little or no community interested in bot access requests. --[[User:Luckas Blade|Luckas Blade]] 14:51, 1 Marisi 2009 (UTC) : Implemented. —<small>[[m:User:Pathoschild|Pathoschild]] 03:26:48, 12 Marisi 2009 (UTC)</small> ==The LocalisationUpdate extension has gone live== The LocalisationUpdate extension is now enabled for all Wikimedia projects. From now on new localisations that become available in SVN will become available to your project within 24 hours. Your localisations get into SVN from [http://translatewiki.net translatewiki.net] typically within a day and at worst in two days. This is a huge improvement from the old practice where the localisations became available with new software. This could take weeks, even months. The localisations done by our community at translatewiki.net are committed to SVN typically every day. When the system messages in English are the same as the local messages, they will now be inserted in a file and are available for use in all our projects in a timely manner ===What this means for you=== Local messages have an impact on the performance of our system. It is best when messages are as much as possible part of the system messages. In order to remove unnecessary duplication, all the messages that have a local localisation and are '''exactly''' the same as the system message will be removed. What we ask you to do is to compare and proof read the messages in translatewiki.net and the local messages. You can then either remove local messages when the translatewiki.net message is to be preferred or, you can update the message at translatewiki.net. Messages that are specific to your project will have to stay as they are. You do want to check if the format and the variables of the message are still the same. ===Why localise at translatewiki.net=== When you localise at translatewiki.net, your messages will be used in all Wikimedia projects and eventually in all MediaWiki based projects. This is how we provide the standard support for your language. When messages change, at translatewiki.net you will be prompted to revisit your translations. Localising is more efficient because we have innovated the process to make you more efficient; there is text explaining about messages and we have applied AJAX technology to reduce the number of clicks you have to make. ==Translatewiki.net update== *Currently 15.80% of the MediaWiki messages and 0.11% of the messages of the extensions used by the Wikimedia Foundation projects have been localised.

We are now ready to look at other aspects of usability for your language as well. There are two questions we would like you to answer: Are there issues with the new functionality of the Usability Initiative Does MediaWiki support your language properly The best way to answer the first question is to visit the translatewiki.net. Change the language to your language, select the “vector” skin and add the advanced tool bar in in the preferences and check out the new functionality. And make some changes in your user page. When there is a need to improve on the localisation, please make the [http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translate&group=ext-ui-0-all necessary changes]s . It should update your localisation straight away. We would like you to report each issue individually at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Usability_issues. When there are problems with the support of MediaWiki for your language, we really want to know about this. It is best to report each issue separately. In this way there will be no large mass of issues to resolve but we can address each issue on its own. Consider issues with the display of characters, the presentation of your script, the position of the side bar, the combination of text with other languages, scripts. It is best to try this in an environment like the prototype wiki as it provides you with a clean, basic and up to date environment. The prototype wiki is available for five languages but you can select any of them, change the preferences to your language and test out MediaWiki for your language. We would like you to report each issue individually at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Language_issues. The issues you raise will all be assessed. It is important to keep each issue separate, because this will make it easier to understand the issues and find solutions. PS This text has been approved by Naoko, Brion and Siebrand.

(See [[m:Special:MyLanguage/IPv6 initiative/2012 IPv6 Day announcement|the full version of this announcement]] for notes on range blocks.) *In the mid term, some user scripts and tools will need to be adapted for IPv6. *We suspect that IPv6 usage is going to be very low initially, meaning that abuse should be manageable, and we will assist in the monitoring of the situation.

As some of you might already have heard Wikimedia Deutschland is working on a new Wikimedia project. It is called [[m:Wikidata]]. The goal of Wikidata is to become a central data repository for the Wikipedias, its sister projects and the world. In the future it will hold data like the number of inhabitants of a country, the date of birth of a famous person or the length of a river. These can then be used in all Wikimedia projects and outside of them. The project is divided into three phases and "we are getting close to roll-out the first phase". The phases are: # language links in the Wikipedias (making it possible to store the links between the language editions of an article just once in Wikidata instead of in each linked article) # infoboxes (making it possible to store the data that is currently in infoboxes in one central place and share the data) # lists (making it possible to create lists and similar things based on queries to Wikidata so they update automatically when new data is added or modified) It'd be great if you could join us, test the [http://wikidata-test.wikimedia.de demo version], provide feedback and take part in the development of Wikidata. You can find all the relevant information including an [[m:Wikidata/FAQ|FAQ]] and sign-up links for our on-wiki newsletter on [[m:Wikidata|the Wikidata page on Meta]].

The next step is to enable the extension on all other Wikipedias. We have currently planned this for March 6. === What is Wikidata? === Wikidata is a central place to store data that you can usually find in infoboxes.

The first part of this project (centralizing language links) is being rolled out now.

It includes things like the symbol for a chemical element, the ISBN for a book or the top level domain of a country. (None of this will happen automatically. Someone will have to change the article or infobox template for this to happen!) '''How will this work?''' There are two ways to access the data: * Use a parser function like <nowiki>{{#property:p169}}</nowiki> in the wiki text of the article on Yahoo!. This will return “[[d:Q14086|Marissa Mayer]]” as she is the [[d:Property:P169|chief executive officer]] of the [[d:Q37093|company]]. * For more complicated things you can use Lua. The documentation for this is [[mw:Extension:WikibaseClient/Lua|here]]. We are working on expanding the parser function so you can for example use <nowiki>{{#property:chief executive officer}}</nowiki> instead of <nowiki>{{#property:p169}}</nowiki>.

We are also compiling a [[m:Talk:Requests for comment/Activity levels of advanced administrative rights holders|list of projects]] with procedures for removing inactive administrators on the talk page of the request for comment. Feel free to add your project(s) to the list if you have a policy on administrator inactivity. All input is appreciated. The discussion may close as soon as 21 May 2013 (2013-05-21), but this will be extended if needed.

I hope someone can translate this. If you understand German better than English you can have a look at the announcement on [[:de:Wikipedia:Kurier]]. A while ago the first phase of [[d:|Wikidata]] was enabled on this Wikipedia. This means you are getting the language links in each article from Wikidata. We have now enabled the second phase of Wikidata (infoboxes) here. We have already done this on the [[http://blog.wikimedia.de/2013/03/27/you-can-have-all-the-data/ first 11 Wikipedias]] (it, he, hu, ru, tr, uk, uz, hr, bs, sr, sh) a month ago and [http://blog.wikimedia.de/2013/04/22/and-that-makes-12/ two days ago on the English Wikipedia]. Today all the remaining Wikipedias followed. '''What does having phase 2 enabled here mean?''' You are now able to make use of the structured data that is available on Wikidata in your articles/infoboxes. It includes things like the symbol for a chemical element, the ISBN for a book or the top level domain of a country. (None of this will happen automatically. Someone will have to change the article or infobox template for this to happen!) The current state is just the beginning though. It will be extended based on feedback we get from you now. '''How will this work?''' There are two ways to access the data: * Use a parser function like <nowiki>{{#property:p159}}</nowiki> in the wiki text of the article on Wikimedia Foundation. This will return “[[d:Q62|San Francisco]]” as that is the [[d:Property:P159|headquarter location]] of the [[d:180|non-profit]]. * For more complicated things you can use Lua. The documentation for this is [[mw:Extension:WikibaseClient/Lua|here]]. We are working on expanding the parser function so you can for example use <nowiki>{{#property:headquarter location}}</nowiki> instead of <nowiki>{{#property:p159}}</nowiki>. The complete plan for this is [[meta:Wikidata/Notes/Inclusion syntax|here]]. '''Where can I test this?''' You can test it on [http://test2.wikipedia.org test2] if you don't want to do it in an article here. '''Where can I find more information and ask questions?''' We have collected the main questions in an [[meta:Wikidata/Deployment Questions|FAQ for this deployment]]. Please ask questions you might have on [[meta:Talk:Wikidata/Deployment Questions|the FAQ’s discussion page]]. '''I want to be kept up to date about Wikidata''' To stay up-to-date on everything happening around Wikidata please [[meta:Global message delivery/Targets/Wikidata|subscribe]] to the newsletter that is delivered weekly to subscribed user’s talk pages.

Please translate it if needed to help your community.'' The Wikimedia Foundation's [[mw:Multimedia|multimedia team]] seeks community guidance on a proposal to support the [[w:MP4|MP4 video format]]. This digital video standard is used widely around the world to record, edit and watch videos on mobile phones, desktop computers and home video devices. It is also known as [[w:MP4|H.264/MPEG-4 or AVC]]. Supporting the MP4 format would make it much easier for our users to view and contribute video on Wikipedia and Wikimedia projects -- and video files could be offered in dual formats on our sites, so we could continue to support current open formats (WebM and Ogg Theora). However, MP4 is a patent-encumbered format, and using a proprietary format would be a departure from our current practice of only supporting open formats on our sites -- even though the licenses appear to have acceptable legal terms, with only a small fee required. We would appreciate your guidance on whether or not to support MP4. Our Request for Comments presents views both in favor and against MP4 support, based on opinions we’ve heard in our discussions with community and team members. [[commons:Commons:Requests for comment/MP4 Video|Please join this RfC -- and share your advice]]. All users are welcome to participate, whether you are active on Commons, Wikipedia, other Wikimedia project -- or any site that uses content from our free media repository. You are also welcome to join tomorrow's [[m:IRC_office_hours#Upcoming_office_hours|Office hours chat on IRC]], this Thursday, January 16, at 19:00 UTC, if you would like to discuss this project with our team and other community members.

You can find [[:mw:VisualEditor/status|on Mediawiki.org]] weekly updates detailing recent work.'' [[File:VisualEditor - Link editing inline box.png|thumb|Dialog boxes in VisualEditor have been re-designed to use action words instead of icons. This has increased the number of [[:mw:VisualEditor/TranslationCentral#Translate the VisualEditor interface|items that need to be translated]]. [[:mw:VisualEditor/User guide|The user guide]] is also being updated. |alt=Screenshot of VisualEditor's link tool|240px]] The biggest visible change since the last newsletter was to the dialog boxes. '''The design for each dialog box and window was simplified.''' The most commonly needed buttons are now at the top. Based on user feedback, the buttons are now labeled with simple words (like "Cancel" or "Done") instead of potentially confusing icons (like "<" or "X"). Many of the buttons to edit links, images, and other items now also show the linked page, image name, or other useful information when you click on them. * '''Hidden HTML comments''' (notes visible to editors, but not to readers) can now be read, edited, inserted, and removed. A small icon (a white exclamation mark on a dot) marks the location of each comments. You can click on the icon to see the comment. * You can now '''drag and drop text''' and templates as well as images. A new placement line makes it much easier to see where you are dropping the item. Images can no longer be dropped into the middle of paragraphs. * '''All references and footnotes ('''<code><nowiki><ref></nowiki></code>''' tags) are now made through the "{{int:visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label}}" menu''', including the "{{int:visualeditor-dialogbutton-reference-tooltip}}" (manual formatting) footnotes and the ability to re-use an existing citation, both of which were previously accessible only through the "{{int:visualeditor-toolbar-insert}}" menu. The "{{int:visualeditor-dialogbutton-referencelist-tooltip}}" is still added via the "{{int:visualeditor-toolbar-insert}}" menu. * When you add an image or other media file, you are now prompted to add an '''image caption''' immediately. You can also replace an image whilst keeping the original caption and other settings. * All tablet users visiting the '''mobile web''' version of Wikipedias will be able to opt-in to a version of VisualEditor from 14 August. You can test the new tool by choosing the beta version of the mobile view in the Settings menu. * The '''link tool''' has a new "Open" button that will open a linked page in another tab so you can make sure a link is the right one. * The '''"Cancel" button''' in the toolbar has been removed based on user testing. To cancel any edit, you can leave the page by clicking the Read tab, the back button in your browser, or closing the browser window without saving your changes. </div> === Looking ahead === <div class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr"> The team posts details about planned work on the [[:mw:VisualEditor/Roadmap|VisualEditor roadmap]].

A new policy regarding the removal of "advanced rights" (administrator, bureaucrat, etc) was recently adopted by [[:m:Requests for comment/Activity levels of advanced administrative rights holders|global community consensus]] (your community received a notice about the discussion). According to this policy, the [[:m:stewards|stewards]] are reviewing administrators' activity on smaller wikis. To the best of our knowledge, your wiki does not have a formal process for removing "advanced rights" from inactive accounts. This means that the stewards will take care of this according to the new [[:m:Admin activity review|admin activity review]] here. We have determined that the following users meet the inactivity criteria (no edits and no log actions for more than 2 years): #Kizito (administrator) #Malangali (administrator) These users will receive a notification soon, asking them to start a community discussion if they want to retain some or all of their rights. If the users do not respond, then their advanced rights will be removed by the stewards. However, if you as a community would like to create your own activity review process superseding the global one, want to make another decision about these inactive rights holders, or already have a policy that we missed, then please notify the [[:m:Stewards' noticeboard|stewards on Meta-Wiki]] so that we know not to proceed with the rights review on your wiki.

VisualEditor reads that data, and uses it to populate its simplified template dialogs. With the new TemplateData editor, it is easier to add information about parameters, because the ones you need to use are pre-loaded. See [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:TemplateData|the help page for TemplateData]] for more information about adding TemplateData. [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:VisualEditor/User guide|The user guide]] has information about how to use VisualEditor. </div></div> Since the last newsletter, the [[mw:VisualEditor|Editing]] team has reduced technical debt, simplified some workflows for template and citation editing, made major progress on Internet Explorer support, and fixed [https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=349619&order=priority%252Cbug_severity&product=VisualEditor&query_format=advanced&resolution=FIXED&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-08-14&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-08-21&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-08-28&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-09-04&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-09-11&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-09-18&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-09-25&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-10-02 over 125 bugs and requests]. Several performance improvements were made, especially to the system around re-using references and reference lists. Weekly updates are posted [[mw:VisualEditor/status|on Mediawiki.org]]. There were three issues that required urgent fixes: a deployment error that meant that many buttons didn't work correctly (bugs [[bugzilla:69856|69856]] and [[bugzilla:69864|69864]]), a problem with edit conflicts that left the editor with nowhere to go ([[bugzilla:69150|bug 69150]]), and a problem in Internet Explorer 11 that replaced some categories with a link to the system message [[MediaWiki:Badtitletext]] ([[bugzilla:70894|bug 70894]]) when you saved. The developers apologize for the disruption, and thank the people who reported these problems quickly. === Increased support for devices and browsers === '''Internet Explorer 10 and 11 users now have access to VisualEditor'''. This means that about 5% of Wikimedia's users will now get an "Edit" tab alongside the existing "Edit source" tab. Support for Internet Explorer 9 is planned for the future. '''Tablet users''' browsing the site's mobile mode now have the option of using a mobile-specific form of VisualEditor. More editing tools, and availability of VisualEditor on smartphones, is planned for the future. The '''mobile version of VisualEditor''' was tweaked to show the context menu for citations instead of basic references ([[bugzilla:68897|bug 68897]]). A bug that broke the editor in iOS was corrected and released early ([[bugzilla:68949|bug 68949]]). For mobile tablet users, three bugs related to scrolling were fixed ([[bugzilla:66697|bug 66697]], [[bugzilla:68828|bug 68828]], [[bugzilla:69630|bug 69630]]). You can use VisualEditor on the mobile version of Wikipedia from your tablet by clicking on the cog in the top-right when editing a page and choosing which editor to use. === TemplateData editor === '''The tool for editing [[mw:Extension:TemplateData|TemplateData]] has been deployed to 30 more Wikipedias this week.''' Other Wikipedias and some other projects may receive access next month. This tool makes it easier to add TemplateData to the template's documentation. When the tool is enabled, it will add a button above every editing window for a template (including documentation subpages). To use it, edit the template page or a subpage, and then click the "{{int:templatedata-editbutton}}" button at the top. Read [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:TemplateData|the help page for TemplateData]]. You can test the TemplateData editor [[mw:Template:Sandbox/doc|in a sandbox at Mediawiki.org]]. Remember that TemplateData should be placed either on a documentation subpage '''''or''''' on the template page itself. Only one block of TemplateData will be used per template. === Other changes === Several interface '''messages and labels were changed''' to be simpler, clearer, or shorter, based on feedback from translators and editors. The formatting of dialogs was changed, and more changes to the appearance will be coming soon, when VisualEditor implements the new MediaWiki theme from Design. (A preview of the theme is [[toollabs:oojs-ui/oojs-ui/demos/index.html#widgets-mediawiki-vector-ltr|available on Labs]] for developers.) The team also made some improvements for users of the '''Monobook''' skin that improved the size of text in toolbars and fixed selections that overlapped menus. VisualEditor-MediaWiki now supplies the <code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">mw-redirect</code> and <code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">mw-disambig</code> class on '''links to redirects and disambiguation pages''', so that user gadgets that colour in these types of links can be created. '''Templates' fields can be marked as '<code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">required</code>' '''in TemplateData. If a parameter is marked as required, then you cannot delete that field when you add a new template or edit an existing one ([[bugzilla:60358|bug 60358]]). Language support improved by making annotations use bi-directional isolation (so they display correctly with cursoring behaviour as expected) and by fixing a bug that crashed VisualEditor when trying to edit a page with a <code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">dir</code> attribute but no <code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">lang</code> set ([[bugzilla:69955|bug 69955]]). === Looking ahead === The team posts details about planned work on the [[mw:VisualEditor/Roadmap|VisualEditor roadmap]]. The VisualEditor team [[mw:Cite-from-id|plans to add '''auto-fill features''']] '''for citations''' soon, perhaps in late October. The team is also working on support for '''adding rows and columns to tables''', and early work for this may appear within the month. <mark>Please comment on the design [[:mw:VisualEditor/Design/Table editor#Design Workflow for comments|at Mediawiki.org]].</mark> In the future, real-time collaborative editing may be possible in VisualEditor. Some early preparatory work for this was recently done. === Supporting your wiki === At Wikimania, several developers gave presentations about VisualEditor. A translation sprint focused on improving access to VisualEditor was supported by many people. '''Deryck Chan''' was the top translator. Special honors also go to '''संजीव कुमार (Sanjeev Kumar)''', '''Robby''', '''Takot''', '''Bachounda''', '''Bjankuloski06''' and '''Ата'''. A [[mw:VisualEditor/Translathon#Highlights from the Translathon|summary]] of the work achieved by the translation community is available. Thank you all for your work.

Not all features are available on the mobile website. </div></div> Since the last newsletter, the [[mw:VisualEditor|Editing Team]] has fixed many [https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=355757&product=VisualEditor&query_format=advanced&resolution=FIXED&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-10-09&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-10-16&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-10-23%20%281.25wmf5%29&target_milestone=VE-deploy-2014-10-29%20%281.25wmf6%29 bugs and requests], and worked on support for editing tables and for using non-Latin languages. Their weekly updates are posted [[mw:VisualEditor/status|on Mediawiki.org]]. Informal notes from the recent quarterly review were posted [[m:WMF_Metrics_and_activities_meetings/Quarterly_reviews/Editing/October_2014|on Meta]]. === Recent improvements === Basic support for '''inserting tables''' and changing the number of rows and columns in them was just introduced to Wikipedias. Advanced features, like dragging columns to different places, will be added later. To help editors find the most important items more quickly, some items in the toolbar menus are now hidden behind '''a "{{int:Ooui-toolbar-more}}" item''', such as "{{int:Visualeditor-annotationbutton-underline-tooltip}}" in the styling menu. The French Wikipedia should see '''better search results''' for links, templates, and media because the [[:mw:Help:CirrusSearch|new search engine]] was turned on for everyone there. This change is expected at the Chinese and German Wikipedias this week, and the following week at the English Wikipedia. The "pawn" system has been mostly replaced. Bugs in this system sometimes added a chess pawn character to wikitext. The replacement provides better support for '''non-Latin languages''', with full support hopefully coming soon. VisualEditor is now provided to editors who use '''Internet Explorer''' 10 or 11 on desktop and mobile devices. Internet Explorer 9 is not supported yet. The '''keyboard shortcuts''' for items in the toolbar menus are now shown in the menus. VisualEditor will replace the existing design with a '''new theme''' from the [[mw:Design|User Experience/Design group]]. The appearance of dialog boxes has already changed in the mobile version. The appearance on desktops will change soon. You are welcome to compare [[toollabs:oojs-ui/oojs-ui/demos/index.html#widgets-apex-vector-ltr|the old "Apex" design]] and [[toollabs:oojs-ui/oojs-ui/demos/index.html#widgets-mediawiki-vector-ltr|the new "MediaWiki" theme]] which will replace it. Several bugs were fixed for internal and external links. Improvements to MediaWiki's search solved an annoying problem: If you searched for the full name of the page or file that you wanted to link, sometimes the search engine could not find the page. A link inside a template to a local page that does not exist will now show red, exactly as it does when reading the page. Due to an error, for about two weeks this also affected all external links inside templates. Opening an auto-numbered link node like [http://example.com] with the keyboard used to open the wrong link tool. These problems have all been fixed. === TemplateData === '''The tool for quickly editing [[mw:Extension:TemplateData|TemplateData]] has been deployed to all Wikimedia Foundation wikis on Thursday, 6 November.''' This tool was already available on the biggest 40 Wikipedias, and now all wikis will have access to it. This tool makes it easier to add TemplateData to the template's documentation. When the tool is enabled, it will add a button above every editing window for a template (including documentation subpages). To use it, edit the template or a subpage, and then click the "{{int:templatedata-editbutton}}" button at the top. Read [[mw:Help:TemplateData|the help page for TemplateData]] to learn more about it. You can test the TemplateData editor [[mw:Template:Sandbox/doc|in a sandbox at Mediawiki.org]]. Remember that TemplateData should be placed either on a documentation subpage '''''or''''' on the template page itself. Only one block of TemplateData will be used per template. You can use the '''new autovalue setting''' to pre-load a value into a template. This can be used to substitute dates, as in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=632356794&oldid=632356402 this example], or to add the most common value for that parameter. The autovalue can be overridden by the editor, by typing something else in the field. In TemplateData, you may '''define a parameter as "required"'''. The template dialog box in VisualEditor will warn editors if they leave a "required" parameter empty, and they will not be able to delete that parameter. If the template can function without this parameter, then please mark it as "{{int:Templatedata-doc-param-status-suggested}}" or "{{int:Templatedata-doc-param-status-optional}}" in TemplateData instead. === Looking ahead === The VisualEditor team [[mw:Cite-from-id|plans to add '''auto-fill features''']] '''for citations''' soon. The appearance of the media search dialog will improve, to make picking between possible images easier and more visual. The team posts details about planned work on the [[mw:VisualEditor/Roadmap|VisualEditor roadmap]]. The [[mw:Help:VisualEditor/User_guide|user guide]] is being updated to add information about editing tables. The translations of the user guide for most languages except Spanish, French, and Dutch are significantly out of date. '''Please help [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Help%3AVisualEditor%2FUser+guide&action=page&filter= complete the current translations]''' for users who speak your language.

[[:mw:VisualEditor/User guide|The user guide]] has more information about how to use VisualEditor. </div> </div> Since the last newsletter, the [[mw:VisualEditor|Editing Team]] has fixed many bugs and worked on table editing and performance. Their weekly status reports are posted [[mw:VisualEditor/status|on mediawiki.org]]. Upcoming plans are posted at the [[mw:VisualEditor/Roadmap|VisualEditor roadmap]]. '''VisualEditor was deployed to several hundred remaining wikis''' as an opt-in [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|beta feature]] at the end of November, except for most Wiktionaries (which depend heavily upon templates) and all Wikisources (which await integration with [[mw:Extension:Proofread Page|ProofreadPage]]). === Recent improvements === Basic support for '''editing tables''' is now available. You can add and delete tables, add and remove rows and columns, set or remove a caption for a table, and merge cells together. To change the contents of a cell, double-click inside it. More features will be added in the coming months. In addition, VisualEditor now ignores broken, invalid <code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">rowspan</code> and <code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">colspan</code> elements, instead of trying to repair them. You can now use '''find and replace''' in VisualEditor, reachable through the tool menu or by pressing <kbd><code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">^ Ctrl</code></kbd>+<kbd><code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">F</code></kbd> or <kbd><code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">⌘ Cmd</code></kbd>+<kbd><code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">F</code></kbd>. You can now create and edit simple <code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr"><nowiki><blockquote></nowiki></code> paragraphs for quoting and indenting content. This changes a "{{Int:Visualeditor-formatdropdown-format-paragraph}}" into a "{{Int:Visualeditor-formatdropdown-format-blockquote}}". Some '''new keyboard sequences''' can be used to format content. At the start of the line, typing "<code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">* </code>" will make the line a bullet list; "<code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">1.</code>" or "<code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">#</code>" will make it a numbered list; "<code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">==</code>" will make it a section heading; "<code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">: </code>" will make it a blockquote. If you didn't mean to use these tools, you can press undo to undo the formatting change. There are also two other keyboard sequences: "<code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr"><nowiki>[[</nowiki></code>" for opening the link tool, and "<code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr"><nowiki>{{</nowiki></code>" for opening the template tool, to help experienced editors. The existing standard keyboard shortcuts, like <kbd><code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">^ Ctrl</code></kbd>+<code class="mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr">K</code> to open the link editor, still work. If you add a category that has been redirected, then VisualEditor now adds its target. Categories without description pages show up as red. You can again create and edit '''galleries''' as wikitext code. === Looking ahead === The current VisualEditor design will be replaced with a '''new theme''' designed by the [[mw:Design|User Experience group]]. The new theme will be visible for desktop systems at mediawiki.org in late December and on other sites in early January. (You can see a developer preview of [[toollabs:oojs-ui/oojs-ui/demos/index.html#widgets-apex-vector-ltr|the old "Apex" theme]] and [[toollabs:oojs-ui/oojs-ui/demos/index.html#widgets-mediawiki-vector-ltr|the new "MediaWiki" one]] which will replace it.)

Status reports are posted [[mw:VisualEditor/status|on mediawiki.org]]. Upcoming plans are posted at the [[mw:VisualEditor/Roadmap|VisualEditor roadmap]]. The Wikimedia Foundation has named [[:mw:Wikimedia_Engineering/2014-15_Goals#Top_departmental_priorities_for_Q3_.28January-March_2015.29|its top priorities for this quarter]] (January to March). The first priority is making VisualEditor ready for deployment by default to all new users and logged-out users at the remaining large Wikipedias. You can help identify these requirements. <mark>There will be weekly '''triage meetings '''which''' will be open to volunteers''' beginning Wednesday, 11 February 2015 at [http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20150211T12&p1=224&ah=1 12:00 (noon) PST] (20:00 UTC). </mark> Tell Vice President of Engineering [[:foundation:User:Damon_Sicore_(WMF)|Damon Sicore]], Product Manager [[:mw:User:Jdforrester_(WMF)|James Forrester]] and other team members which bugs and features are most important to you. The decisions made at these meetings will determine what work is necessary for this quarter's goal of making VisualEditor ready for deployment to new users. The presence of volunteers who enjoy contributing MediaWiki code is particularly appreciated. Information about how to join the meeting will be posted at [[:mw:Talk:VisualEditor/Portal|mw:Talk:VisualEditor/Portal]] shortly before the meeting begins. Due to some breaking changes in MobileFrontend and VisualEditor, VisualEditor was not working correctly on the mobile site for a couple of days in early January. The teams apologize for the problem. === Recent improvements === The''' new design for VisualEditor''' aligns with MediaWiki's [[mw:Frontend standards group|Front-End Standards]] as led by the Design team. Several new versions of the [[mw:OOjs UI|OOjs UI]] library have also been released, and these also affect the appearance of VisualEditor and other MediaWiki software extensions. Most changes were minor, like changing the text size and the amount of white space in some windows. Buttons are consistently color-coded to indicate whether the action: * starts a new task, like opening the {{int:visualeditor-toolbar-savedialog}} dialog: <span style="background-color: #015ccc; color:white"> blue </span>, * takes a constructive action, like inserting a citation: <span style="background-color: #008c6d; color:white"> green </span>, * might remove or lose your work, like removing a link: <span style="background-color: #a7170f; color:white"> red </span>, or * is neutral, like opening a link in a new browser window: <span style="color: 757575"> gray </span>. The '''TemplateData editor''' has been completely re-written to use a different design based on the same OOjs UI system as VisualEditor. ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T67815 T67815], [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T73746 T73746].) This change fixed a couple of existing bugs and improved usability. ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T73077 T73077], [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T73078 T73078].) '''Search and replace''' in long documents is now faster. It does not highlight every occurrence if there are more than 100 on-screen at once.([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T78234 T78234].) Editors at the Hebrew and Russian Wikipedia requested the ability to use VisualEditor in the "Article Incubator" or drafts namespace. ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T86688 T86688], [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T87027 T87027].) If your community would like '''VisualEditor enabled on another namespace''' on your wiki, then you can file a request in Phabricator. Please include a link to a community discussion about the requested change. === Looking ahead === The Editing team will soon add '''auto-fill features''' '''for citations'''. The '''[[mw:Citoid|Citoid service]]''' takes a [[w:URL|URL]] or [[w:en: Digital object identifier|DOI]] for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. After creating it, you will be able to change or add information to the citation, in the same way that you edit any other pre-existing citation in VisualEditor. Support for ISBNs, PMIDs, and other identifiers is planned. Later, editors will be able to contribute to the Citoid service's definitions for each website, to improve precision and reduce the need for manual corrections. We will need editors to help test the '''new design of the special character inserter''', especially if you speak Welsh, Breton, or another language that uses diacritics or special characters extensively. The new version should be available for testing next week. Please contact [[:en:User:Whatamidoing (WMF)|User:Whatamidoing (WMF)]] if you would like to be notified when the new version is available. After the special character tool is completed, VisualEditor will be deployed to all users at [[:mw:VisualEditor/Rollouts|Phase 5 Wikipedias]]. This will affect about 50 mid-size and smaller Wikipedias, including '''Afrikaans, Azerbaijani, Breton, Kyrgyz, Macedonian, Mongolian, Tatar, and Welsh'''. The date for this change has not been determined. === Let's work together === *Share your ideas and ask questions at [[mw:VisualEditor/Feedback|mw:VisualEditor/Feedback]]. *Please help [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Help%3AVisualEditor%2FUser+guide&language=&action=page&filter= complete translations of the user guide] for users who speak your language. *Join the weekly bug triage meetings beginning Wednesday, 11 February 2015 at [http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20150211T12&p1=224&ah=1 12:00 (noon) PST] (20:00 UTC); information about how to join the meeting will be posted at [[mw:Talk:VisualEditor/Portal]] shortly before the meeting begins, and you can also contact [[mw:User:Jdforrester (WMF)|James F.]] to learn more about this initiative. *Talk to the Editing team during the [[:m:IRC office hours|office hours]] via [[:en:IRC|IRC]].

[[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/User guide|The user guide]] has more information about how to use VisualEditor. </div></div> Since the last newsletter, the [[:mw:VisualEditor|Editing Team]] has fixed many bugs and worked on VisualEditor's performance, the [[:mw:Citoid|Citoid]] reference service, and support for languages with complex input requirements. Status reports are posted [[:mw:VisualEditor/changelog|on Mediawiki.org]]. The worklist for April through June is available [[phab:project/sprint/board/1113/|in Phabricator]]. The weekly '''task triage meetings''' continue to be open to volunteers, each Wednesday at [http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20150401T11&p1=224&am=30 11:00 (noon) PDT] (18:00 UTC).

Learn how to join the meetings and how to nominate bugs at [[:mw:Talk:VisualEditor/Portal|mw:Talk:VisualEditor/Portal]]. === Recent improvements === VisualEditor is now substantially faster. In many cases, opening the page in VisualEditor is now faster than opening it in the wikitext editor. The new system has improved the code speed by 37% and [[:mw:RESTBase|network speed]] by almost 40%. The Editing team is slowly adding '''auto-fill features''' '''for citations'''. This is currently available only at the French, Italian, and English Wikipedias. The '''[[:mw:Citoid|Citoid service]]''' takes a [[:en:URL|URL]] or [[:en:Digital object identifier|DOI]] for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. After creating it, you will be able to change or add information to the citation, in the same way that you edit any other pre-existing citation in VisualEditor. Support for [[:en:ISBN|ISBNs]], [[:en:PubMed#PubMed_identifier|PMIDs]], and other identifiers is planned. Later, editors will be able to improve precision and reduce the need for manual corrections by contributing to the Citoid service's definitions for each website. Citoid requires good [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:TemplateData|TemplateData]] for your citation templates. If you would like to request this feature for your wiki, please post a request in the [[phab:tag/citoid/|Citoid project on Phabricator]]. Include links to the TemplateData for the most important citation templates on your wiki. The '''special character inserter''' has been improved, based upon feedback from active users. After this, VisualEditor was made available to all users of Wikipedias on the [[:mw:VisualEditor/Rollouts|Phase 5]] list on 30 March. This affected 53 mid-size and smaller Wikipedias, including '''Afrikaans''', '''Azerbaijani''', '''Breton''', '''Kyrgyz''', '''Macedonian''', '''Mongolian''', '''Tatar''', and''' Welsh'''. Work continues to support languages with complex requirements, such as Korean and Japanese. These languages use [[w:input method editor|input method editors]] ("IMEs”). Recent improvements to cursoring, backspace, and delete behavior will simplify typing in VisualEditor for these users. The design for the image selection process is now using a "masonry fit" model. Images in the search results are displayed at the same height but at variable widths, similar to bricks of different sizes in a masonry wall, or the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Images#Mode parameter|"packed" mode in image galleries]]. This style helps you find the right image by making it easier to see more details in images. You can now '''drag and drop categories''' to re-arrange their order of appearance ​on the page. The pop-up window that appears when you click on a reference, image, link, or other element, is called the "context menu". It now displays additional useful information, such as the destination of the link or the image's filename. The team has also added an explicit "Edit" button in the context menu, which helps new editors open the tool to change the item. '''Invisible templates are marked by a puzzle piece icon''' so they can be interacted with. Users also will be able to see and edit HTML anchors now in section headings. Users of the TemplateData GUI editor can now set a string as an optional text for the 'deprecated' property in addition to boolean value, which lets you tell users of the template what they should do instead. ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T90734 T90734]) === Looking ahead === The special character inserter in VisualEditor will soon use the same special character list as the wikitext editor. Admins at each wiki will also have the option of creating a custom section for frequently used characters at the top of the list. Instructions for customizing the list will be posted [[:mw:VisualEditor/Special_characters|at mediawiki.org]]. The team is discussing a test of VisualEditor with new users at the English Wikipedia, to see whether they have met their goals of making VisualEditor suitable for those editors. The timing is unknown, but might be relatively soon.

[[File:Wikimedia Foundation logo - vertical (2012-2016).svg|100px|right]] Greetings, I am pleased to announce that nominations are now being accepted for the 2015 Wikimedia Foundation Elections. This year the Board and the FDC Staff are looking for a diverse set of candidates from regions and projects that are traditionally under-represented on the board and in the movement as well as candidates with experience in technology, product or finance. To this end they have [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections 2015/Call for candidates|published letters]] describing what they think is needed and, recognizing that those who know the community the best are the community themselves, the election committee is [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections 2015|accepting nominations]] for community members you think should run and will reach out to those nominated to provide them with information about the job and the election process. This year, elections are being held for the following roles: ''Board of Trustees''<br/> The Board of Trustees is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long term sustainability of the Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. There are three positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/Board elections/2015|the board elections page]]. ''Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)''<br/> The Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) makes recommendations about how to allocate Wikimedia movement funds to eligible entities. There are five positions being filled. More information about this role can be found at [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/FDC elections/2015|the FDC elections page]]. ''Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) Ombud''<br/> The FDC Ombud receives complaints and feedback about the FDC process, investigates complaints at the request of the Board of Trustees, and summarizes the investigations and feedback for the Board of Trustees on an annual basis. One position is being filled. More information about this role can be found at [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/FDC Ombudsperson elections/2015|the FDC Ombudsperson elections page]]. The candidacy submission phase lasts from 00:00 UTC April 20 to 23:59 UTC May 5 for the Board and from 00:00 UTCApril 20 to 23:59 UTC April 30 for the FDC and FDC Ombudsperson. This year, we are accepting both self-nominations and nominations of others. More information on this election and the nomination process can be found on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections 2015|the 2015 Wikimedia elections page on Meta-Wiki]].

Content Translation is a tool that will help editors quickly create new articles by translating from a Wikipedia page in another language. The tool is currently in use in over [[mw:Content_translation/Languages#Available_languages|40 Wikipedias]] as a beta feature. To start translating, you will have to enable the beta feature and go to [[Special:ContentTranslation]] or to your contributions page and create a new translation by selecting the source language, the article name you wish to translate and target language i.e. the language of the new article you are creating. If the article already exists then a warning will be displayed. After you translate the article, you can publish it directly as a new page on the Wikipedia. In case the article gets created by another user while you were translating, you will see an option to save the newly published translation under your user namespace. The number of published pages can be seen on the [[Special:CXStats|Content Translation stats page]]. Since, this is the first time we have installed the tool on this Wikipedia, there are chances that there may be some problems or service disruptions which we are not yet aware of. We will be monitoring the usage to check for any failures or issues, but please do let us know on the [[:mw:Talk:Content_translation|Content Translation talk page]] or through [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T97540 Phabricator] if you spot any problems that prevent you from using the tool.

Some of these bugs affected users of VisualEditor on mobile devices. Status reports are posted [[mw:VisualEditor/changelog|on mediawiki.org]]. The worklist for April through June is available [[phab:project/sprint/board/1113/|in Phabricator]]. A [[m:Research:VisualEditor's_effect_on_newly_registered_editors/May_2015_study|test of VisualEditor's effect on new editors]] at the English Wikipedia has just completed the first phase. During this test, half of newly registered editors had VisualEditor automatically enabled, and half did not. The main goal of the study is to learn which group was more likely to save an edit and to make productive, unreverted edits. Initial [[m:Research:VisualEditor's_effect_on_newly_registered_editors/May_2015_study#Results|results will be posted at Meta]] later this month. === Recent improvements === '''Auto-fill features''' '''for citations''' are available at a few Wikipedias through the '''[[:mw:Citoid|citoid service]]'''. Citoid takes a [[:en:URL|URL]] or [[:en:Digital object identifier|DOI]] for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. If Citoid is enabled on your wiki, then the design of the citation workflow changed during May. All citations are now created inside a single tool. Inside that tool, choose the tab you want ({{int:citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-auto}}, {{int: citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-manual}}, or {{int:citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-reuse}}). The cite button is now labeled with the word "{{int:visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label}}" rather than a book icon, and the autofill citation dialog now has a more meaningful label, "{{Int:Citoid-citeFromIDDialog-lookup-button}}", for the submit button. The '''link tool''' has been redesigned based on feedback from Wikipedia editors and user testing. It now has two separate sections: one for links to articles and one for external links. When you select a link, its pop-up context menu shows the name of the linked page, a thumbnail image from the linked page, Wikidata's description, and appropriate icons for disambiguation pages, redirect pages and empty pages (where applicable). Search results have been reduced to the first five pages. Several bugs were fixed, including a dark highlight that appeared over the first match in the link inspector. ([[phab:T98085|T98085]]) The '''special character inserter''' in VisualEditor now uses the same special character list as the wikitext editor. Admins at each wiki can also create a custom section for frequently used characters at the top of the list. Please read the instructions for customizing the list [[mw:VisualEditor/Special_characters|at mediawiki.org]]. Also, there is now a tooltip to describing each character in the special character inserter. ([[phab:T70425|T70425]]) Several improvements have been made to '''templates'''. When you search for a template to insert, the list of results now contains descriptions of the templates. The parameter list inside the template dialog now remains open after inserting a parameter from the list, so that users don’t need to click on "{{Int:visualeditor-dialog-transclusion-add-param}}" each time they want to add another parameter. ([[phab:T95696|T95696]]) The team added a '''new property for TemplateData''', "{{int: templatedata-doc-param-example}}", for template parameters. This optional, translatable property will show up when there is text describing how to use that parameter. ([[phab:T53049|T53049]]) The '''design''' of the main toolbar and several other elements have changed slightly, to be consistent with the MediaWiki theme. In the Vector skin, individual items in the menu are separated visually by pale gray bars. Buttons and menus on the toolbar can now contain both an icon and a text label, rather than just one or the other. This new design feature is being used for the cite button on wikis where the Citoid service is enabled. The team has released a long-desired improvement to the handling of '''non-existent images'''. If a non-existent image is linked in an article, then it is now visible in VisualEditor and can be selected, edited, replaced, or removed. === Let's work together === * Share your ideas and ask questions at [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=VisualEditor/Feedback&lqt_method=talkpage_new_thread mw:VisualEditor/Feedback]. * The weekly task triage meetings continue to be open to volunteers, usually on Wednesday at 12:00 (noon) PDT (19:00 UTC).

Some of these bugs affected users of VisualEditor on mobile devices. Status reports are posted [[mw:VisualEditor/changelog|on mediawiki.org]]. The worklist for April through June is available [[phab:project/sprint/board/1113/|in Phabricator]]. A [[m:Research:VisualEditor's_effect_on_newly_registered_editors/May_2015_study|test of VisualEditor's effect on new editors]] at the English Wikipedia has just completed the first phase. During this test, half of newly registered editors had VisualEditor automatically enabled, and half did not. The main goal of the study is to learn which group was more likely to save an edit and to make productive, unreverted edits. Initial [[m:Research:VisualEditor's_effect_on_newly_registered_editors/May_2015_study#Results|results will be posted at Meta]] later this month. === Recent improvements === '''Auto-fill features''' '''for citations''' are available at a few Wikipedias through the '''[[:mw:Citoid|citoid service]]'''. Citoid takes a [[:en:URL|URL]] or [[:en:Digital object identifier|DOI]] for a reliable source, and returns a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. If Citoid is enabled on your wiki, then the design of the citation workflow changed during May. All citations are now created inside a single tool. Inside that tool, choose the tab you want ({{int:citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-auto}}, {{int: citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-manual}}, or {{int:citoid-citeFromIDDialog-mode-reuse}}). The cite button is now labeled with the word "{{int:visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label}}" rather than a book icon, and the autofill citation dialog now has a more meaningful label, "{{Int:Citoid-citeFromIDDialog-lookup-button}}", for the submit button. The '''link tool''' has been redesigned based on feedback from Wikipedia editors and user testing. It now has two separate sections: one for links to articles and one for external links. When you select a link, its pop-up context menu shows the name of the linked page, a thumbnail image from the linked page, Wikidata's description, and appropriate icons for disambiguation pages, redirect pages and empty pages (where applicable). Search results have been reduced to the first five pages. Several bugs were fixed, including a dark highlight that appeared over the first match in the link inspector.

[https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/06/12/securing-wikimedia-sites-with-https/ Forced HTTPS] has just been implemented on all Wikimedia projects. Some of you might already be aware of this, as a few Wikipedia language versions were converted to HTTPS last week and the then affected communities were notified. Most of Wikimedia editors shouldn't be affected at all. If you edit as registered user, you've probably already had to log in through HTTPS. We'll keep an eye on this to make sure everything is working as it should.

There they participated in the Hackathon and met with individuals and groups of users. They also made several presentations about [[c:File:How_we_made_VisualEditor_faster.pdf|VisualEditor]] and the [[:c:File:Wikimania_2015_–_Editing_Department_–_Beyond_Editing.pdf|future of editing]]. Following Wikimania, we announced winners for the [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Project:VisualEditor/2015_Translathon VisualEditor 2015 Translathon]. Our thanks and congratulations to users ''Halan-tul'', ''Renessaince'', ''<span lang="ne" dir="ltr">जनक राज भट्ट</span> (Janak Bhatta)'', ''Vahe Gharakhanyan'', ''Warrakkk'', and ''Eduardogobi''. For '''interface messages''' (translated at [https://translatewiki.net translatewiki.net]), we saw the initiative affecting 42 languages. The average progress in translations across all languages was 56.5% before the translathon, and 78.2% after ('''+21.7%'''). In particular, Sakha improved from 12.2% to 94.2%; Brazilian Portuguese went from 50.6% to 100%; Taraškievica went from 44.9% to 85.3%; Doteli went from 1.3% to 41.2%. Also, while 1.7% of the messages were outdated across all languages before the translathon, the percentage dropped to 0.8% afterwards (-0.9%). For '''documentation messages''' (on mediawiki.org), we saw the initiative affecting 24 languages. The average progress in translations across all languages was 26.6% before translathon, and 46.9% after ('''+20.3%'''). There were particularly notable achievements for three languages. Armenian improved from 1% to 99%; Swedish, from 21% to 99%, and Brazilian Portuguese, from 34% to 83%. Outdated translations across all languages were reduced from 8.4% before translathon to 4.8% afterwards (-3.6%). [https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Project:VisualEditor/2015_Translathon#Graphs_(interface_messages_only) We published some graphs] showing the effect of the event on the Translathon page. We thank the translators for participating and the translatewiki.net staff for facilitating this initiative. === Recent improvements === '''Auto-fill features for citations''' can be enabled on each Wikipedia. The tool uses the '''[[:mw:Citoid|citoid service]]''' to convert a [[:en:URL|URL]] or [[:en:Digital object identifier|DOI]] into a pre-filled, pre-formatted bibliographic citation. You can see an animated GIF of the quick, [[mediawikiwiki:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/GIFs#Auto-citing_a_source|simple process at mediawiki.org]]. So far, about a dozen Wikipedias have enabled the auto-citation tool. To enable it for your wiki, follow the [[mediawikiwiki:Special:MyLanguage/Citoid/Enabling_Citoid_on_your_wiki|instructions at mediawiki.org]]. Your wiki can customize the first section of the '''special character inserter''' in VisualEditor. Please follow the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Special_characters|instructions at mediawiki.org]] to put the characters you want at the top. In other changes, if you need to fill in a [[:mw:CAPTCHA|CAPTCHA]] and get it wrong, then you can click to get a new one to complete. VisualEditor can now display and edit [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:Graph|Vega-based graphs]]. If you use the Monobook skin, VisualEditor's appearance is now more consistent with other software. === Future changes === The team will be changing the '''appearance of selected links''' inside VisualEditor. The purpose is to make it easy to see whether your cursor is inside or outside the link. When you select a link, the link label (the words shown on the page) will be enclosed in a faint box. If you place your cursor inside the box, then your changes to the link label will be part of the link. If you place your cursor outside the box, then it will not. This will make it easy to know when new characters will be added to the link and when they will not. On the English Wikipedia, 10% of newly created accounts are now offered both the visual and the wikitext editors. A [[m:Research:VisualEditor's_effect_on_newly_registered_editors/May_2015_study|recent controlled trial]] showed no significant difference in survival or productivity for new users in the short term. New users with access to VisualEditor were very slightly less likely to produce results that needed reverting. You can learn more about this by watching a video of the [[mediawikiwiki:Wikimedia_Research/Showcase#July_2015|July 2015 Wikimedia Research Showcase]]. The proportion of new accounts with access to both editing environments will be gradually increased over time. Eventually all new users have the choice between the two editing environments. === Let's work together === * Share your ideas and ask questions at [[:mw:VisualEditor/Feedback|mw:VisualEditor/Feedback]]. This feedback page is now using [[mw:Flow|Flow]] instead of LiquidThreads. * <mark>Can you read and type in Korean or Japanese?</mark> Language engineer [[mw:User:DChan (WMF)|David Chan]] needs people who know which tools people use to type in some languages. If you speak Japanese or Korean, you can help him test support for these languages. Please see the instructions at [[mw:VisualEditor/IME Testing#What to test|mediawiki.org]] if you can help. * If your wiki would like '''VisualEditor enabled on another namespace''', you can file a request in Phabricator. Please include a link to a community discussion about the requested change. * Please file requests for language-appropriate "{{Int:visualeditor-annotationbutton-bold-tooltip}}" and "{{Int:visualeditor-annotationbutton-italic-tooltip}}" icons for the styling menu [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/create/?projects=PHID-PROJ-dafezmpv6huxg3taml24 in Phabricator]. * The design research team wants to see how real editors work.

They post weekly status reports [[mw:VisualEditor/changelog|on mediawiki.org]]. Their workboard is available [[phab:project/board/483/|in Phabricator]]. Their [[mediawikiwiki:VisualEditor/Current_priorities|current priorities]] are improving support for languages like Japanese and Arabic, making it easier to edit on mobile devices, and providing rich-media tools for formulæ, charts, galleries and uploading. === Recent improvements === '''Educational features:''' The first time ever you use the visual editor, it now draws your attention to the {{Int:visualeditor-annotationbutton-link-tooltip}} and {{Int:visualeditor-toolbar-cite-label}} tools. When you click on the tools, it explains why you should use them. ([[Phab:T108620|T108620]]) Alongside this, the welcome message for new users has been simplified to make editing more welcoming. ([[Phab:T112354|T112354]]) More in-software educational features are planned. '''Links:''' It is now easier to understand when you are adding text to a link and when you are typing plain text next to it. ([[Phab:T74108|T74108]], [[Phab:T91285|T91285]]) The editor now fully supports ISBN, PMID or RFC numbers. ([[Phab:T109498|T109498]], [[Phab:T110347|T110347]], [[Phab:T63558|T63558]]) These [[:en:Help:Magic_links|"magic links"]] use a custom link editing tool. '''Uploads:''' Registered editors can now '''upload images''' and other media to Commons while editing. Click the new tab in the "{{int:visualeditor-toolbar-insert}} {{int:visualeditor-dialogbutton-media-tooltip}}" tool. You will be guided through the process without having to leave your edit. At the end, the image will be inserted. This tool is limited to one file at a time, owned by the user, and licensed under Commons's standard license. For more complex situations, the tool links to more advanced upload tools. You can also drag the image into the editor. This will be available in the wikitext editor later. '''Mobile:''' Previously, the visual editor was available on the mobile Wikipedia site only on tablets. Now, editors can use it on all devices regardless of size if they wish. ([[Phab:T85630|T85630]]) Edit conflicts were previously broken on the mobile website. Edit conflicts can now be resolved in both wikitext and visual editors. ([[Phab:T111894|T111894]]) Sometimes templates and similar items could not be deleted on the mobile website. Selecting them caused the on-screen keyboard to hide with some browsers. Now there is a new "{{int:Visualeditor-contextitemwidget-label-remove}}" button, so that these things can be removed if the keyboard hides. ([[Phab:T62110|T62110]]) You can also edit table cells in mobile now. '''Rich editing tools:''' You can now add and edit '''sheet''' '''music''' in the visual editor. ([[Phab:T112925|T112925]]) There are separate tabs for advanced options, such as MIDI and Ogg audio files. ([[Phab:T114227|T114227]], [[Phab:T113354|T113354]]) When editing '''formulæ''' and other blocks, errors are shown as you edit. It is also possible to edit some types of '''graphs'''; adding new ones, and support for new types, will be coming. On the '''English Wikipedia''', the visual editor is now automatically available to anyone who creates an account. The preference switch was moved to the normal location, under [[Special:Preferences]]. === Future changes === You will soon be able to '''switch from the wikitext to the visual editor''' after you start editing. ([[phab:T49779|T49779]]) Previously, you could only switch from the visual editor to the wikitext editor. Bi-directional switching will make possible a '''single edit tab.''' ([[phab:T102398|T102398]]) This project will combine the "{{int:vector-view-edit}}" and "{{int:visualeditor-ca-editsource}}" tabs into a single "{{int:vector-view-edit}}" tab, similar to the system already used on the mobile website. The "{{int:vector-view-edit}}" tab will open whichever editing environment you used last time. === Let's work together === * Share your ideas and ask questions at [[:mw:VisualEditor/Feedback|VisualEditor/Feedback]].

Hi everyone, This is to inform all Wikimedia contributors that a [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Free Bassel/Banner/Straw poll|straw poll seeking your involvement]] has just been started on Meta-Wiki. As some of your might be aware, a small group of Wikimedia volunteers have proposed a banner campaign informing Wikipedia readers about the urgent situation of our fellow Wikipedian, open source software developer and Creative Commons activist, [[:w:Bassel Khartabil|Bassel Khartabil]]. An exemplary [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Free Bassel/Banner|banner]] and an [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Free Bassel/Banner|explanatory page]] have now been prepared, and translated into about half a dozen languages by volunteer translators. We are seeking [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Free Bassel/Banner/Straw poll|your involvement to decide]] if the global Wikimedia community approves starting a banner campaign asking Wikipedia readers to call on the Syrian government to release Bassel from prison. We understand that a campaign like this would be unprecedented in Wikipedia's history, which is why we're seeking the widest possible consensus among the community. Given Bassel's urgent situation and the resulting tight schedule, we ask everyone to [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Free Bassel/Banner/Straw poll|get involved with the poll and the discussion]] to the widest possible extent, and to promote it among your communities as soon as possible.

People around the world are getting involved in the celebration and have started adding their [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 15/Events|events on Meta Page]]. While we are celebrating Wikipedia's birthday, we hope that all projects and affiliates will be able to utilize this celebration to raise awareness of our community's efforts. Haven’t started planning? Don’t worry, there’s lots of ways to get involved. Here are some ideas: * '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 15/Events|Join/host an event]]'''. We already have more than 80, and hope to have many more. * '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 15/Media|Talk to local press]]'''. In the past 15 years, Wikipedia has accomplished extraordinary things. We’ve made a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 15/15 years|handy summary]] of milestones and encourage you to add your own. More resources, including a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 15/Media#releases|press release template]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Communications/Movement Communications Skills|resources on working with the media]], are also available. * '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 15/Material|Design a Wikipedia 15 logo]]'''. In place of a single icon for Wikipedia 15, we’re making dozens. Add your own with something fun and representative of your community. Just use the visual guide so they share a common sensibility. * '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 15/Events/Package#birthdaywish|Share a message on social media]]'''. Tell the world what Wikipedia means to you, and add #wikipedia15 to the post. We might re-tweet or share your message! Everything is linked on the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikipedia 15|Wikipedia 15 Meta page]]. You’ll find a set of ten data visualization works that you can show at your events, and a [[c:Category:Wikipedia15 Mark|list of all the Wikipedia 15 logos]] that community members have already designed.

With compact language links enabled, users are shown a much shorter list of languages on the interlanguage link section of an article (see image). Based on several factors, this shorter list of languages is expected to be more relevant for them and valuable for finding similar content in a language known to them. More information about compact language links can be found in [[:mw:Universal_Language_Selector/Compact_Language_Links|the documentation]]. From today onwards, compact language links has been enabled as the default listing of interlanguage links on this wiki. Using the button at the bottom, you will be able to see a longer list of all the languages the article has been written in. The setting for this compact list can be changed by using the checkbox under ''User Preferences -> Appearance -> Languages'' The compact language links feature has been tested extensively by the Wikimedia Language team, which developed it. However, in case there are any problems or other feedback please let us know on the [[:mw:Talk:Universal_Language_Selector/Compact_Language_Links|project talk page]] or on this discussion thread. It is to be noted that on some wikis the presence of an existing older gadget that was used for a similar purpose may cause an interference for compact language list.

Their workboard is available [[phab:project/board/483/|in Phabricator]]. Their [[:mw:VisualEditor/Current_priorities|current priorities]] are improving support for Arabic and Indic scripts, and adapting the visual editor to the needs of the Wikivoyages and Wikisources. === Recent changes === The visual editor is now available to all users at most [[Wikivoyage:|Wikivoyages]]. It was also enabled for all contributors at the French Wikinews. The '''[[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Single edit tab|single edit tab]]''' feature combines the "{{int:vector-view-edit}}" and "{{int:visualeditor-ca-editsource}}" tabs into a single "{{int:vector-view-edit}}" tab. It has been deployed to several Wikipedias, including Hungarian, Polish, English and Japanese Wikipedias, as well as to all Wikivoyages. At these wikis, you can change your settings for this feature in the "{{int:prefs-editing}}" tab of [[Special:Preferences]]. The team is now reviewing the feedback and considering ways to improve the design before rolling it out to more people. === Future changes === The "{{int:Savearticle}}" button will say "{{int:Publishpage}}". This will affect both the visual and wikitext editing systems. More [[M:Editing/Publish|information is available on Meta]]. The visual editor will be offered to all editors at the remaining [[:mw:VisualEditor/Rollouts|"Phase 6" Wikipedias]] during the next few months. The developers want to know whether typing in your language feels natural in the visual editor. Please post your comments and the language(s) that you tested at [[:mw:Topic:St8y4ni42d0vr9cv|the feedback thread on mediawiki.org]]. This will affect several languages, including: [[:w:ar: |'''Arabic''']], [[:w:hi: |'''Hindi''']], [[:w:th: |'''Thai''']], [[:w:ta: |'''Tamil''']], [[:w:mr: |'''Marathi''']], [[:w:ml: |'''Malayalam''']], [[:w:ur: |'''Urdu''']], [[:w:fa: |'''Persian''']], [[:w:bn: |'''Bengali''']], [[:w:as: |'''Assamese''']], [[:w:arc: |'''Aramaic''']] and others. The team is working with the volunteer developers who power Wikisource to provide the visual editor there, for opt-in testing right now and eventually for all users. ([[phab:T138966|T138966]]) The team is working on a modern wikitext editor. It will look like the visual editor, and be able to use the citoid service and other modern tools. This new editing system may become available as a Beta Feature on desktop devices around September 2016. You can read about this project in a [[mediawikiwiki:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/Roadmap/Update_2016-06-23|general status update on the Wikimedia mailing list]]. === Let's work together === * Do you teach new editors how to use the visual editor?

The names will be consistent in all editing environments.[https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T131132][https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T139033] This change will probably happen during the week of 30 August 2016. The change will be announced in [[:m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News|Tech News]] when it happens. If you are fluent in a language other than English, please check the status of translations at translatewiki.net for [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translations&namespace=8&message=Publishpage “'''<bdi>{{int:Publishpage}}</bdi>'''”] and [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translations&namespace=8&message=Publishchanges “'''<bdi>{{int:Publishchanges}}</bdi>'''”]. The main reason for this change is to avoid confusion for new editors. Repeated user research studies with new editors have shown that some new editors believed that [https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translations&namespace=8&message=Savearticle “<bdi>{{int:Savearticle}}</bdi>”] would save a private copy of a new page in their accounts, rather than permanently publishing their changes on the web. It is important for this part of the user interface to be clear, since it is difficult to remove public information after it is published. We believe that the confusion caused by the “<bdi>{{int:Savearticle}}</bdi>” button increases the workload for experienced editors, who have to clean up the information that people unintentionally disclose, and report it to the functionaries and stewards to suppress it. Clarifying what the button does will reduce this problem. Beyond that, the goal is to make all the wikis and languages more consistent, and some wikis made this change many years ago. The [[:m:Legal|Legal team]] at the Wikimedia Foundation supports this change. Making the edit interface easier to understand will make it easier to handle licensing and privacy questions that may arise. Any help pages or other basic documentation about how to edit pages will also need to be updated, on-wiki and elsewhere. On wiki pages, you can use the wikitext codes <code><nowiki>{{int:Publishpage}}</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>{{int:Publishchanges}}</nowiki></code> to display the new labels in the user's preferred language. For the language settings in [[Special:Preferences|your account preferences]], these wikitext codes produce “<bdi>{{int:Publishpage}}</bdi>” and “<bdi>{{int:Publishchanges}}</bdi>”.

Because Wikipedia is so big, we cannot send all of it to the moon. That is why the international Wikipedia-community has voted to send all “Featured Articles and Featured Lists“ from all languages in Wikipedia. [[:en:Wikipedia:Featured_articles|“Featured Articles“]] is a category in many language versions of Wikipedia that collects the very best articles in that language. Your community does not currently have a „Featured Articles“ category. Ideally, we want to take every language on Wikipedia to the moon and we also want to take the best articles in your language. That is why we would like ''you'' to tell us what the very best articles in your language are. There are two ways you could do this: :1) You could introduce the categories “Featured Article” and “Featured List” in your language version of Wikipedia and vote for the best articles and put them in the category. We will take every article that is tagged as a “Featured Article” or a “Featured List” to the moon :2) You could vote for the best articles in your language version of Wikipedia and put them all on one a new Wikipedia page. If you let us know where we can find that list [[:meta:Wikipedia_to_the_Moon/Working|here]], we will also take the articles to the moon. The deadline for Wikipedia to the Moon is 31 October 2016. After that date, we will put all the Featured Articles and Lists onto a special disc and give it to the “PT Scientists.” They will take the Wikipedia articles into space next year. --[[User:Denis Schroeder (WMDE)|Denis Schroeder (WMDE)]] ([[User talk:Denis Schroeder (WMDE)|talk]]) 14:37, 17 Gwamunaana 2016 (UTC) == New Wikipedia Library accounts available now (August 2016) == <div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr"> Hello Wikimedians!

Please [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|go try it out]]. We in the Wikimedia Foundation's Editing department are responsible for making editing better for all our editors, new and experienced alike. We've been slowly improving [[:mw:VisualEditor|the visual editor]] based on feedback, user tests, and feature requests. However, that doesn't work for all our user needs: whether you need to edit a wikitext talk page, create a template, or fix some broken reference syntax, sometimes you need to use wikitext, and many experienced editors prefer it. Consequently, we've planned a "wikitext mode" for the visual editor for a long time. It provides as much of the visual editor's features as possible, for those times that you need or want wikitext. It has the same user interface as the visual editor, including the same toolbar across the top with the same buttons. It provides access to the [[:mw:citoid|citoid service]] for formatting citations, integrated search options for inserting images, and the ability to add new templates in a simple dialog. Like in the visual editor, if you paste in formatted text copied from another page, then formatting (such as bolding) will automatically be converted into wikitext. All wikis now have access to this mode as a [[:mw:Beta Features|Beta Feature]]. When enabled, it replaces your existing [[:mw:Editor|wikitext editor]] everywhere. If you don't like it, you can reverse this at any time by turning off the Beta Feature in your preferences. We don't want to surprise anyone, so it's strictly an ''opt-in-only'' Beta Feature. It won't switch on automatically for anyone, even if you have previously checked the box to "{{Int:Betafeatures-auto-enroll}}". The new wikitext edit mode is based on the visual editor, so it requires JavaScript (as does the [[:mw:Extension:WikiEditor|current wikitext editor]]). It doesn't work with gadgets that have only been designed for the older one (and ''vice versa''), so some users will miss gadgets they find important. We're happy to [[:mw:VisualEditor/Gadgets|work with gadget authors to help them update their code to work]] with both editors. We're not planning to get rid of the current main wikitext editor on desktop in the foreseeable future. We're also not going to remove the existing ability to edit plain wikitext without JavaScript. Finally, though it should go without saying, if you prefer to continue using the current wikitext editor, then you may so do. This is an early version, and we'd love to know what you think so we can make it better. Please leave feedback about the new mode [[:mw:2017 wikitext editor/Feedback|on the feedback page]]. You may write comments in any language. Thank you. </div> [[:mw:User:Jdforrester (WMF)|James Forrester]] (Product Manager, Editing department, Wikimedia Foundation) --19:31, 14 Gwakkuminebiri 2016 (UTC) <!-- Message sent by User:Elitre (WMF)@metawiki using the list at https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Distribution_list/Global_message_delivery&oldid=15942009 --> == Review of initial updates on Wikimedia movement strategy process == <div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr"> ''Note: Apologies for cross-posting and sending in English.

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.

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 [[d:Wikidata:Client editing input|asked for feedback in 2015]], and collected some interesting ideas which we [[:File:Facilitating_the_use_of_Wikidata_in_Wikimedia_projects_with_a_user-centered_design_approach.pdf|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, '''[[d:Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:Client editing prototype|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.

You may know that [[d:Wikidata:Main page|Wikidata]] provides a centralized system for all the interwikilinks. When a new page is created, it should be connected to the corresponding Wikidata item, by modifying this Wikidata item. With this new notification, editors creating pages will be informed when another editor connects this page to Wikidata.

This feature will be disable by default for existing editors, and enabled by default for new editors.

Page Previews provide a preview of any linked article, giving readers a quick understanding of a related article without leaving the current page. As mentioned in December we're preparing to remove the feature from Beta and make it the default behavior for logged-out users. We have recently made a large update to the code which fixes most outstanding bugs. Due to some issues with our instrumentation, we delayed our deployment by a few months. We are finally ready to deploy the feature. Page Previews will be off by default and available in the user preferences page for logged-in users the week of July 24th. The feature will be on by default for current beta users and logged-out users. If you would like to preview the feature, you can enable it as a [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures|beta feature]]. For more information see [[mw:Hovercards|Page Previews]].

They allow readers using the Wikipedia app to bookmark pages into folders to read later. This includes reading offline. Reading lists do not create or alter content in any way. To create Reading Lists, app users will register an account and marked pages will be tied to that account. Reading List account preferences sync between devices. You can read the same pages on different mobile platforms (tablets, phones). This is the first time we are syncing preference data between devices in such a way. We want to hear and address concerns about privacy and data security. We also want to explain why the current watchlist system is not being adapted for this purpose. === Background === In 2016 the Android team replaced the simple Saved Pages feature with Reading Lists. Reading Lists allow users to bookmark pages into folders and for reading offline. The intent of this feature was to allow "syncing" of these lists for users with many devices. Due to overlap with the Gather feature and related community concerns, this part was put on hold. The Android team has identified this lack of synching as a major area of complaint from users. They expect lists to sync. The iOS team has held off implementing Reading Lists, as syncing was seen as a "must have" for this feature. A recent [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T164990 technical RfC] has allowed these user stories and needs to be unblocked. Initially for Android, then iOS, and with web to potentially follow. Reading lists are private, stored as part of a user's account, not as a public wiki page. There is no sharing or publishing ability for reading lists. No planned work to make these public. The target audience are people that read Wikipedia and want to bookmark and organize that content in the app. There is a potential for the feature to be available on the web in the future. === Why not watchlists === Watchlists offer similar functionality to Reading Lists. The Reading Infrastructure team evaluated watchlist infrastructure before exploring other options. In general, the needs of watchlists differ from Reading Lists in a few key ways: * Reading lists focus on Reading articles, not the monitoring of changes. * Watchlists are focused on monitoring changes of pages/revisions. ** The Watchlist infrastructure is key to our contributor community for monitoring content changes manually and through the use of automated tools (bots). Because of these needs, expanding the scope of Watchlists to reading purposes will only make the project harder to maintain and add more constraints. * By keeping the projects separate it is easier to scale resources. We can serve these two different audiences and prioritize the work accordingly. Reading Lists are, by their nature, less critical to the health of Wikipedia/MediaWiki. * Multi-project support. Reading Lists are by design cross-wiki/project. Watchlists are tied to specific wikis. While there have been many discussion for making them cross-wiki, resolution is not in the near term.

Currently, most Wikipedias don’t have mapframe. But [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Maps#Milestones_and_Updates|fifteen Wikipedias]], along with all the other Wikimedia projects, are using mapframe today to display maps on thousands of pages. A little background: over the last few months, the Foundation’s [[mw:Collaboration|Collaboration team]] has been working to improve the stability and user experience of the maps service. In addition, a question about long-term support for the maps service was recently settled, and a small team has been assigned for routine maintenance.

[[phab:T191583|Nine Wikipedias]] that use a stricter version of Flagged Revisions will not get mapframe in this release.

The [[mw:Reading/Web/Team|Readers web team]] has recently begun working on exposing issue templates on the mobile website. Currently, details about issues with page content are generally hidden on the mobile website. This leaves readers unaware of the reliability of the pages they are reading. The goal of this project is to improve awareness of particular issues within an article on the mobile web. We will do this by changing the visual styling of page issues. So far, we have [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues|drafted a proposal on the design and implementation]] of the project. We were also able to run [[mw:Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues/Research Results|user testing on the proposed designs]]. The tests so far have positive results. Here is a quick summary of what we learned: * The new treatment increases awareness of page issues among participants. This is true particularly when they are in a more evaluative/critical mode. * Page issues make sense to readers and they understand how they work * Readers care about page issues and consider them important * Readers had overwhelmingly positive sentiments towards Wikipedia associated with learning about page issues Our next step would be to start implementing these changes. We wanted to reach out to you for any concerns, thoughts, and suggestions you might have before beginning development.

To improve the security of our readers and editors, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed. (These are pages like <code dir="ltr">MediaWiki:Common.css</code> and <code dir="ltr">MediaWiki:Vector.js</code> which contain code that is executed in the browsers of users of the site.) A new user group, <code dir="ltr">[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Interface administrators|interface-admin]]</code>, has been created. Starting four weeks from now, only members of this group will be able edit CSS/JS pages that they do not own (that is, any page ending with <code dir="ltr">.css</code> or <code dir="ltr">.js</code> that is either in the <code dir="ltr">MediaWiki:</code> namespace or is another user's user subpage). You can learn more about the motivation behind the change [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS|here]]. Please add users who need to edit CSS/JS to the new group (this can be done the same way new administrators are added, by stewards or local bureaucrats). This is a dangerous permission; a malicious user or a hacker taking over the account of a careless interface-admin can abuse it in far worse ways than admin permissions could be abused. Please only assign it to users who need it, who are trusted by the community, and who follow common basic password and computer security practices (use strong passwords, do not reuse passwords, use two-factor authentication if possible, do not install software of questionable origin on your machine, use antivirus software if that's a standard thing in your environment).

The team working on TemplateStyles at the Wikimedia Foundation would like to enable TemplateStyles on this wiki. TemplateStyles is a feature to allow non-administrators to write and manage CSS styles for templates. It allows contributors who edit templates to separate content and presentation. A good web practice that makes it easier to manage the layout of templates. If you don't edit templates, this will not have any impact on your contributions. TemplateStyles is useful for a few reasons. * It makes it possible for templates to work better on mobile. * It cuts out confusion on where to apply CSS rules. * Editing CSS is currently limited to administrators, which is a major barrier to participation. * All stylesheets must be loaded on all pages (whether they actually use the page or not), which wastes bandwidth and makes debugging style rules more difficult. You can [[mw:Help:TemplateStyles|learn more about TemplateStyles on MediaWiki.org]]. [[mw:Extension:TemplateStyles|Technical documentation is also available]]. This is an optional feature and no one must use it, but template contributors are encouraged to do so! Please discuss and let us know if there are any concerns. If there are no concerns we will proceed to deploy the feature on the 9th of August.

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. They will switch all traffic to the secondary data center on '''Wednesday, 12 September 2018'''. On '''Wednesday, 10 October 2018''', they will switch back to the primary data center. Unfortunately, because of some limitations in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|MediaWiki]], all editing must stop when we switch. 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, 12 September and Wednesday, 10 October.

The data is stored in Wikidata and displayed, partially or completely, in the Wikipedia’s language, on the articles. This feature is used by many template editors, but brought several issues that were raised by communities in various places: not being able to edit the data directly from Wikipedia was one of them. This is the reason why the '''[[mw:Wikidata Bridge|Wikidata Bridge]]''' project started, with the goal of offering a way to Wikipedia editors to edit Wikidata’s data more easily. This will be achieved by an interface, connected to the infobox, that users can access directly from their local wiki. The project is now at an early stage of development. A lot of [[mw:Wikidata_Bridge/Research|user research]] has been done, and will continue to be done through the different phases of the project. The next steps of [[mw:Wikidata_Bridge/Development|development]] will be achieved by the development team working at Wikimedia Deutschland, starting now until the end of 2019. In order to make sure that we’re building a tool that is answering editors’ needs, we’re using agile methods in our development process. We don’t start with a fixed idea of the tool we want to deliver: we will build it together with the editors, based on feedback loops that we will regularly organize. The first version will not necessarily have all of the features you want, but it will keep evolving. Here’s the planned timeline: * From June to August, we will build the setup and technical groundwork. * From September to November 2019, we will develop the first version of the feature and publish a test system so you can try it and give feedback. * Later on, we will test the feature on a few projects, in collaboration with the communities. ** We will first focus on early adopters communities who already implemented a shortcut from their infoboxes to edit Wikidata (for example Russian, Catalan, Basque Wikipedias) ** but we also welcome also communities who [[mw:Wikidata_Bridge/Get_involved|volunteer to be part of the first test round]]. ** Then we will reach some of the big Wikipedias (French, German, English) in order to see if the project scales and to address their potentially different needs. ** Even later, we can consider enabling the feature on all the other projects. In any case, no deployment or big change will be enforced on the projects without talking to the communities first, and helping the template builders to prepare for the changes they will have to do on the infoboxes’ code. If you want to get involved, there are several ways to help: * Read and help translating [[mw:Wikidata_Bridge|the documentation pages]] * Follow the [[mw:Wikidata_Bridge/Updates|updates]] and participate in [[mw:Topic:V1x2lxtu8rgi954a|the first feedback loop]] * Talk about it with your local community More ideas will be added [[mw:Wikidata_Bridge/Get_involved|on this page]] along the way If you have any questions for the development team, feel free to ask them [[mw:Talk:Wikidata_Bridge|on the main talk page]].

Since [[m:VisualEditor/Newsletter/2018/October|the last newsletter]], the team has released two new features for the [[mw:VisualEditor on mobile|mobile visual editor]] and has started developing three more. All of this work is part of the team's goal to [[m:Wikimedia Foundation Annual Plan/2018-2019/Audiences#Outcome 3: Mobile Contribution|make editing on mobile web simpler]]. Before talking about the team's recent releases, we have a question for you: <strong>Are you willing to try a new way to add and change links?</strong> If you are interested, we would value your input! You can try this new link tool in the mobile visual editor on a separate wiki. <em>Follow these instructions and share your experience:</em> <strong>[[mw:Topic:V394zwrigth8ii7c|📲 Try Edit Cards]].</strong> === Recent releases === The mobile visual editor is a simpler editing tool, for smartphones and tablets using the [[mw:Reading/Web/Mobile#About|mobile site]]. The Editing team recently launched two new features to improve the mobile visual editor: # [[mw:VisualEditor on mobile/Section editing|Section editing]] #* The purpose is to help contributors focus on their edits. #* The team studied this with an A/B test. [[mw:VisualEditor on mobile/Section editing#16 June 2019|This test showed]] that contributors who could use section editing were '''1% more likely to publish''' the edits they started than people with only full-page editing. # [[mw:VisualEditor on mobile#March 1, 2019|Loading overlay]] #* The purpose is to smooth the transition between reading and editing. Section editing and the new loading overlay are '''now available to everyone''' using the mobile visual editor. === New and active projects === This is a list of our most active projects. [[mw:Help:Watching pages|Watch]] these pages to learn about project updates and to share your input on new designs, prototypes and research findings. *[[mw:VisualEditor on mobile/Edit cards|Edit cards]]: This is a clearer way to add and edit links, citations, images, templates, etc. in articles. You can try this feature now. <em>Go here to see how:</em> [[mw:Topic:V394zwrigth8ii7c|📲 <em>Try Edit Cards</em>]]. *[[mw:VisualEditor on mobile/Toolbar refresh|Mobile toolbar refresh]]: This project will learn if contributors are more successful when the editing tools are easier to recognize. *[[mw:VisualEditor on mobile/VE mobile default|Mobile visual editor availability]]: This A/B test asks: ''Are newer contributors more successful if they use the mobile visual editor?'' We are collaborating with [[mw:VisualEditor on mobile/VE mobile default#26 June 2019 %E2%80%93 Participating wikis and test start date|20 Wikipedias]] to answer this question. *[[mw:VisualEditor on mobile/Usability improvements|Usability improvements]]: This project will make the mobile visual editor easier to use. The goal is to let contributors stay focused on editing and to feel more confident in the editing tools. === Looking ahead === * '''Wikimania:''' Several members of the Editing Team will be attending [[wmania:|Wikimania]] in August 2019. They will lead a session about mobile editing in the [[wmania:2019:Community Growth/Visual editing on mobile: An accessible editor for all|Community Growth space]]. Talk to the team about how editing can be improved. * '''Talk Pages:''' In the coming months, the Editing Team will begin [[mw:Talk pages consultation 2019|improving talk pages]] and communication on the wikis. === Learning more === The [[mw:VisualEditor on mobile|VisualEditor on mobile]] is a good place to learn more about the projects we are working on.

The Readers Web team at the WMF will work on some [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements|improvements to the desktop interface]] over the next couple of years. The goal is to increase usability without removing any functionality. We have been inspired by changes made by volunteers, but that currently only exist as local gadgets and user scripts, prototypes, and volunteer-led skins. We would like to begin the process of bringing some of these changes into the default experience on all Wikimedia projects. We are currently in the research stage of this project and are looking for ideas for improvements, as well as feedback on our current ideas and mockups. So far, we have performed interviews with community members at Wikimania. We have gathered lists of previous volunteer and WMF work in this area. We are examining possible technical approaches for such changes. We would like individual feedback on the following: * Identifying focus areas for the project we have not yet discovered * Expanding the list of existing gadgets and user scripts that are related to providing a better desktop experience. If you can think of some of these from your wiki, please let us know * Feedback on the ideas and mockups we have collected so far We would also like to gather a list of wikis that would be interested in being test wikis for this project - these wikis would be the first to receive the updates once we’re ready to start building. When giving feedback, please consider the following goals of the project: * Make it easier for readers to focus on the content * Provide easier access to everyday actions (e.g. search, language switching, editing) * Put things in logical and useful places * Increase consistency in the interface with other platforms - mobile web and the apps * Eliminate clutter * Plan for future growth As well as the following constraints: * Not touching the content - no work will be done in terms of styling templates or to the structure of page contents themselves * Not removing any functionality - things might move around, but all navigational items and other functionality currently available by default will remain * No drastic changes to the layout - we're taking an evolutionary approach to the changes and want the site to continue feeling familiar to readers and editors Please give all feedback (in any language) at [[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements|mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements]] After this round of feedback, we plan on building a prototype of suggested changes based on the feedback we receive.

Welcome, Abstract Wikipedia == <div class="plainlinks mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr"> Hi all, It is my honor to introduce Abstract Wikipedia, a new project that has been unanimously approved by the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. Abstract Wikipedia proposes a new way to generate baseline encyclopedic content in a multilingual fashion, allowing more contributors and more readers to share more knowledge in more languages. It is an approach that aims to make cross-lingual cooperation easier on our projects, increase the sustainability of our movement through expanding access to participation, improve the user experience for readers of all languages, and innovate in free knowledge by connecting some of the strengths of our movement to create something new. This is our first new project in over seven years. Abstract Wikipedia was submitted as a project proposal by Denny Vrandečić in May 2020 <ref>[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Abstract Wikipedia|Abstract Wikipedia]]</ref> after years of preparation and research, leading to a detailed plan and lively discussions in the Wikimedia communities. We know that the energy and the creativity of the community often runs up against language barriers, and information that is available in one language may not make it to other language Wikipedias. Abstract Wikipedia intends to look and feel like a Wikipedia, but build on the powerful, language-independent conceptual models of Wikidata, with the goal of letting volunteers create and maintain Wikipedia articles across our polyglot Wikimedia world. The project will allow volunteers to assemble the fundamentals of an article using words and entities from Wikidata. Because Wikidata uses conceptual models that are meant to be universal across languages, it should be possible to use and extend these building blocks of knowledge to create models for articles that also have universal value. Using code, volunteers will be able to translate these abstract “articles” into their own languages. If successful, this could eventually allow everyone to read about any topic in Wikidata in their own language. As you can imagine, this work will require a lot of software development, and a lot of cooperation among Wikimedians. In order to make this effort possible, Denny will join the Foundation as a staff member in July and lead this initiative. You may know Denny as the creator of Wikidata, a long-time community member, a former staff member at Wikimedia Deutschland, and a former Trustee at the Wikimedia Foundation <ref>[[m:User:Denny|User:Denny]]</ref>. We are very excited that Denny will bring his skills and expertise to work on this project alongside the Foundation’s product, technology, and community liaison teams. It is important to acknowledge that this is an experimental project, and that every Wikipedia community has different needs. This project may offer some communities great advantages. Other communities may engage less. Every language Wikipedia community will be free to choose and moderate whether or how they would use content from this project. We are excited that this new wiki-project has the possibility to advance knowledge equity through increased access to knowledge. It also invites us to consider and engage with critical questions about how and by whom knowledge is constructed. We look forward to working in cooperation with the communities to think through these important questions. There is much to do as we begin designing a plan for Abstract Wikipedia in close collaboration with our communities. I encourage you to get involved by going to the project page and joining the new mailing list <ref>[[mail:abstract-wikipedia|Abstract Wikipedia mailing list]]</ref>. We recognize that Abstract Wikipedia is ambitious, but we also recognize its potential. We invite you all to join us on a new, unexplored path.

They are planned to help you to move files from your local wiki to Wikimedia Commons easier while keeping all original file information (Description, Source, Date, Author, View History) intact. Additionally, the move is documented in the files view history. How does it work? Step 1: If you are an auto-confirmed user, you will see a link "Move file to Wikimedia Commons" on the local file page. Step 2: When you click on this link, the FileImporter checks if the file can in fact be moved to Wikimedia Commons. These checks are performed based on the wiki's [[m:WMDE_Technical_Wishes/Move_files_to_Commons/Configuration_file_documentation|configuration file]] which is created and maintained by each local wiki community. Step 3: If the file is compatible with Wikimedia Commons, you will be taken to an import page, at which you can update or add information regarding the file, such as the description. You can also add the 'Now Commons' template to the file on the local wiki by clicking the corresponding check box in the import form. Admins can delete the file from the local wiki by enabling the corresponding checkbox. By clicking on the 'Import' button at the end of the page, the file is imported to Wikimedia Commons.

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. They will switch all traffic back to the primary data center on '''Tuesday, October 27 2020'''. Unfortunately, because of some limitations in [[mw:Manual:What is MediaWiki?|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 Tuesday, October 27.

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.

I apologize for sending a message in English. {{int:please-translate}}. According to [[:m:Bot_policy/Implementation#Where_it_is_policy|the list]], your wiki project currently is opted in to the [[:m:Bot_policy#Global_bots|global bot policy]]. Under this policy, bots that fix double redirects or maintain interwiki links are allowed to operate under a global bot flag that is assigned directly by the stewards. As the Wikimedia projects developed, the need for the current global bot policy decreased, and in the past years, no bots were appointed via that policy. That is mainly given Wikidata were estabilished in 2013, and it is no longer necessary to have dozens of bots that maintain interwiki links. A [[:m:Requests for comment/Refine global bot policy|proposal]] was made at Meta-Wiki, which proposes that the stewards will be authorized to determine whether an uncontroversial task may be assigned a global bot flag. The stewards already assign permissions that are more impactful on many wikis, namely, [[:m:GS|global sysops]] and [[:m:GR|global renamers]], and I do not think that trust should be an issue. The stewards will assign the permission only to time-proven bots that are already approved at a number of projects, like [[:m:User:ListeriaBot|ListeriaBot]].

As you may know, you can include changes coming from Wikidata in your Watchlist and Recent Changes ([[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-watchlist|in your preferences]]). Until now, this feature didn’t always include changes made on Wikidata descriptions due to the way Wikidata tracks the data used in a given article. Starting on December 3rd, the Watchlist and Recent Changes will include changes on the descriptions of Wikidata Items that are used in the pages that you watch. This will only include descriptions in the language of your wiki to make sure that you’re only seeing changes that are relevant to your wiki. This improvement was requested by many users from different projects. We hope that it can help you monitor the changes on Wikidata descriptions that affect your wiki and participate in the effort of improving the data quality on Wikidata for all Wikimedia wikis and beyond. Note: if you didn’t use the Wikidata watchlist integration feature for a long time, feel free to give it another chance! The feature has been improved since the beginning and the content it displays is more precise and useful than at the beginning of the feature in 2015.

I would like to inform everyone that I created a new global request for comment (GRFC) at Meta Wiki, which may affect your project: [[:m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally]]. In this GRFC, I propose that two-project shortcuts for project names will become a default alias for the project namespace. For instance, on all Wikipedias, WP will be an alias to the Wikipedia: namespace (and similar for other projects). Full list is available in the GRFC. This is already the case for Wikivoyages, and many individual projects asked for this alias to be implemented. I believe this makes it easier to access the materials in the project namespace, as well as creating shortcuts like <tt>WP:NPOV</tt>, as well as helps new projects to use this feature, without having to figure out how to request site configuration changes first. As far as I can see, {{SITENAME}} currently does not have such an alias set. This means that such an alias will be set for you, if the GRFC is accepted by the global community. I would like to ask all community members to participate in the request for comment at Meta-Wiki, see [[:m:Requests for comment/Set short project namespace aliases by default globally]].

([https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ Source])]] Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of [[mw:Talk pages project/Replying|the Reply Tool]]. The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped [[mw:Talk pages project/Glossary|newer editors]] communicate on wiki. The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor. The key results were: * Newer editors who had automatic ("default on") access to the Reply tool were [https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ more likely] to post a comment on a talk page. * The comments that newer editors made with the Reply Tool were also [https://wikimedia-research.github.io/Reply-tools-analysis-2021/ less likely] to be reverted than the comments that newer editors made with page editing. These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful. <strong>Looking ahead</strong> The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months. This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias. The next step is to [[phab:T280599|resolve a technical challenge]]. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the [[phab:T267379|Wikipedias that participated in the study]]. After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis.

Summary: <div style="font-style:italic;"> We will be running the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey|Community Wishlist Survey]] 2022 in January 2022.

For example, we ran the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2021|Wishlist for 2021]] in November 2020. That worked well a few years ago. At that time, we used to start working on the Wishlist soon after the results of the voting were published. However, in 2021, there was a delay between the voting and the time when we could start working on the new wishes. Until July 2021, we were working on wishes from the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey 2020|Wishlist for 2020]]. We hope having the Wishlist 2022 in January 2022 will be more intuitive. This will also give us time to fulfill more wishes from the 2021 Wishlist. === Encouraging wider participation from historically excluded communities === We are thinking how to make the Wishlist easier to participate in. We want to support more translations, and encourage under-resourced communities to be more active. We would like to have some time to make these changes. === A new space to talk to us about priorities and wishes not granted yet === We will have gone 365 days without a Wishlist. We encourage you to approach us. We hope to hear from you in the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Talk:Community Wishlist Survey|talk page]], but we also hope to see you at our bi-monthly Talk to Us meetings! These will be hosted at two different times friendly to time zones around the globe. We will begin our first meeting '''September 15th at 23:00 UTC'''. More details about the agenda and format coming soon! === Brainstorm and draft proposals before the proposal phase === If you have early ideas for wishes, you can use the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|new Community Wishlist Survey sandbox]]. This way, you will not forget about these before January 2022. You will be able to come back and refine your ideas. Remember, edits in the sandbox don't count as wishes! === Feedback === * What should we do to improve the Wishlist pages? * How would you like to use our new [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Community Wishlist Survey/Sandbox|sandbox?]] * What, if any, risks do you foresee in our decision to change the date of the Wishlist 2022? * What will help more people participate in the Wishlist 2022?

After the conclusion of the community vote on the guidelines in March, the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation Community Affairs Committee|Community Affairs committee (CAC)]] of the Board [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/JAYQN3NYKCHQHONMUONYTI6WRKZFQNSC/ asked that several areas of the guidelines be reviewed for improvements] before the Board does its final review. These areas were identified based on community discussions and comments provided during the vote. The CAC also requested review of the controversial Note in 3.1 of the UCoC itself. Once more, a big thank you to all who voted, especially to all who left constructive feedback and comments! The project team is working with the Board to establish a timeline for this work, and will communicate this next month. Members of the two prior [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee|UCoC Drafting Committees]] have generously offered their time to help shape improvements to the Guidelines. You can read more about them and their work [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee#Revisions_Committee|here]], as well as read [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Drafting_committee/Phase_2_meeting_summaries#2022|summaries of their weekly meetings in 2022]]. Wikimedians have provided many valuable comments together with the vote and in other conversations. Given the size and diversity of the Wikimedia community, there are even more voices out there who can give ideas on how to improve the enforcement guidelines and add even more valuable ideas to the process. To help the Revisions committee identify improvements, input on several questions for the committee’s review is requested. Visit the Meta-wiki pages ([[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Enforcement_guidelines/Revision_discussions|Enforcement Guidelines revision discussions]], [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Policy text/Revision_discussions|Policy text revision discussions]]) to get your ideas to the Committee - it is very important that viewpoints are heard from different communities before the Committee begins drafting revision proposals.

I'm writing on behalf of the [[mw:Reading/Web|Wikimedia Foundation Web team]]. '''In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.''' We have been working on it for the past three years. So far, it has been the default on more than 30 wikis, including sister projects, all accounting for more than 1 billion pageviews per month. On average [[phab:T317529#8246686|87% of active logged-in users]] of those wikis use Vector 2022. It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy. Logged-in users can at any time switch to [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|any other skins]]. No changes are expected for users of these skins. <div style="width:100%; margin:auto;"><gallery widths="220" heights="150" mode="packed" caption="Top of an article"> Screenshot Historia da moeda do Tíbet - 2022-09-22 - Vector 2010 top.png|Vector legacy (current default) Screenshot Historia da moeda do Tíbet - 2022-09-22 - Vector 2022 top.png|Vector 2022 </gallery><gallery widths="220" heights="150" mode="packed" caption="A section of an article"> Screenshot Historia da moeda do Tíbet - 2022-09-22 - Vector 2010 scrolled.png|Vector legacy (current default) Screenshot Historia da moeda do Tíbet - 2022-09-22 - Vector 2022 scrolled.png|Vector 2022 </gallery></div> === About the skin === '''[Why is a change necessary]''' The current default skin meets the needs of the readers and editors as these were 13 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using Wikimedia projects. [https://diff.wikimedia.org/2022/08/18/prioritizing-equity-within-wikipedias-new-desktop/ The old Vector doesn't meet their needs.] '''[Objective]''' The objective for the new skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It draws inspiration from previous requests, the [[metawiki:Special:MyLanguage/Community_Wishlist_Survey|Community Wishlist Surveys]], and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. [[phab:phame/post/view/290/how_and_why_we_moved_our_skins_to_mustache/|We reduced PHP code in Wikimedia deployed skins by 75%]]. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs. '''[Changes and test results]''' The skin introduces a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Features|series of changes]] that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin. * The sticky header makes it easier to find tools that editors use often. It decreases scrolling to the top of the page by 16%. * The new table of contents makes it easier to navigate to different sections. Readers and editors jumped to different sections of the page 50% more than with the old table of contents. It also looks a bit different on talk pages. * The new search bar is easier to find and makes it easier to find the correct search result from the list. This increased the amount of searches started by 30% on the wikis we tested on. * The skin does not negatively affect pageviews, edit rates, or account creation. There is evidence of increases in pageviews and account creation across partner communities. '''[Try it out]''' Try out the new skin by going to the appearance tab in [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|your preferences]] and selecting Vector 2022 from the list of skins. === How can editors change and customize this skin? === It's possible to configure and personalize our changes. We support volunteers who create new gadgets and user scripts. Check out [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements/Repository|our repository]] for a list of currently available customizations, or add your own. === Our plan === '''If no large concerns are raised, we plan on deploying in the week of October 3, 2022'''. If your community would like to request more time to discuss the changes, hit the button and write to us. We can adjust the calendar. <div style="text-align: center;">[[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements|<span class="plainlinks mw-ui-button">Request for more time to discuss the change</span>]]</div> If you'd like ask our team anything, if you have questions, concerns, or additional thoughts, please ping me here or write on the [[mw:Talk:Reading/Web/Desktop Improvements|talk page of the project]].

The MCDC then integrated the initial feedback collected during the Summit. Before proceeding with writing the Charter for the whole Movement, the MCDC wants to interact with community members and gather feedback on the drafts of the three sections: Preamble, Values & Principles, and Roles & Responsibilities (intentions statement). The Movement Charter drafts will be available on the Meta page [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Charter/Content|here]] on November 14, 2022. Community wide consultation period on MC will take place from November 20 to December 18, 2022. Learn more about it [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Charter/Community Consultation|here]]. With the goal of ensuring that people are well informed to fully participate in the conversations and are empowered to contribute their perspective on the Movement Charter, three '''“Ask Me Anything about Movement Charter"''' sessions have been scheduled in different time zones. Everyone in the Wikimedia Movement is invited to attend these conversations. The aim is to learn about Movement Charter - its goal, purpose, why it matters, and how it impacts your community.

[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Grants:MSIG/About|Movement Strategy Implementation Grants]] support projects that take the current state of a [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement Strategy/Initiatives|Movement Strategy Initiative]] and push it one step forward. If you are looking for an example or some guide on how to engage your community further on Movement Strategy and the Movement Strategy Implementation Grants specifically, you may find this '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Grants:MSIG/Community Engagement Package|community engagement package]]''' helpful. The goal of this community engagement package is to support more people to access the funding they might need for the implementation work. By becoming a recipient of this grant, you will be able to support other community members to develop further grant applications that fit with your local contexts to benefit your own communities. With this package, the hope is to break down language barriers and to ensure community members have needed information on Movement Strategy to connect with each other. Movement Strategy is a two-way exchange, we can always learn more from the experiences and knowledge of Wikimedians everywhere. We can train and support our peers by using this package, so more people can make use of this great funding opportunity. If this information interests you or if you have any further thoughts or questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us as your [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Movement_Strategy_and_Governance/Team|regional facilitators]] to discuss further. We will be more than happy to support you. When you are ready, follow the steps on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Grants:MSIG/About |this page]] to apply. We look forward to receiving your application.

The Ombuds commission (OC) and the Case Review Committee (CRC) are looking for members. People are encouraged to nominate themselves or encourage others they feel would contribute to these groups to do so. There is more information below about the opportunity and the skills that are needed. '''About the Ombuds commission''' The Ombuds commission (OC) works on all Wikimedia projects to investigate complaints about violations of the privacy policy, especially in use of [[m:Special:MyLanguage/CheckUser policy|CheckUser]] and [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Oversight policy|Oversight]] (also known as Suppression) tools. The Commission mediates between the parties of the investigation and, when violations of the policies are identified, advises the Wikimedia Foundation on best handling. They may also assist the General Counsel, the Chief Executive Officer, or the Board of Trustees of the Foundation in these investigations when legally necessary. For more on the OC's duties and roles, '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Ombuds commission|see Ombuds commission on Meta-Wiki]]'''. Volunteers serving in this role should be experienced Wikimedians, active on any project, who have previously used the CheckUser/Oversight tools OR who have the technical ability to understand these tools and the willingness to learn them. They must be able to communicate in English, the common language of the commission. They are expected to be able to engage neutrally in investigating these concerns and to know when to recuse when other roles and relationships may cause conflict. Commissioners will serve '''two-year terms''' (note that this is different from past years, when the terms have been for one year). '''About the Case Review Committee''' The Case Review Committee (CRC) reviews appeals of eligible Trust & Safety office actions. The CRC is a critical layer of oversight to ensure that Wikimedia Foundation office actions are fair and unbiased. They also make sure the Wikimedia Foundation doesn’t overstep established practices or boundaries. For more about the role, '''[[m:Special:MyLanguage/Case Review Committee|see Case Review Committee on Meta-Wiki]]'''. We are looking for current or former functionaries and experienced volunteers with an interest in joining this group. Applicants must be fluent in English (additional languages are a strong plus) and willing to abide by the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Trust_and_Safety/Case_Review_Committee/Charter|terms of the Committee charter]]. If the work resonates and you qualify, please apply. Committee members will serve '''two-year terms''' (note that this is different from past years, when the terms have been for one year). '''Applying to join either of these groups''' Members are required to sign the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information|Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information]] and must be willing to comply with the appropriate Wikimedia Foundation board policies (such as the [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Access to nonpublic information policy|access to non-public information policy]] and the [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Privacy policy|Foundation privacy policy]]). These positions requires a high degree of discretion and trust. Members must also be over 18 years of age. '''If you are interested in serving in either capacity listed above,''' please write in English to the Trust and Safety team at ca[[File:At sign.svg|16x16px|link=|(_AT_)]]wikimedia.org (to apply to the OC) or to the Legal Team at legal[[File:At sign.svg|16x16px|link=|(_AT_)]]wikimedia.org (to apply to the CRC) with information about: * Your primary projects * Languages you speak/write * Any experience you have serving on committees, whether movement or non-movement * Your thoughts on what you could bring to the OC or CRC if appointed * Any experience you have with the Checkuser or Oversight tools (OC only) * Any other information you think is relevant '''The deadline for applications is 31 December 2022 in any timezone.''' Please feel free to pass this invitation along to any users who you think may be qualified and interested. Thank you!

I invite community members with experience and deep interest in community health and governance to nominate themselves to be part of the U4C building committee, which needs people who are: * Community members in good standing * Knowledgeable about movement community processes, such as, but not limited to, policy drafting, participatory decision making, and application of existing rules and policies on Wikimedia projects * Aware and appreciative of the diversity of the movement, such as, but not limited to, languages spoken, identity, geography, and project type * Committed to participate for the entire U4C Building Committee period from mid-May - December 2023 * Comfortable with engaging in difficult, but productive conversations * Confidently able to communicate in English The Building Committee shall consist of volunteer community members, affiliate board or staff, and Wikimedia Foundation staff. The Universal Code of Conduct has been a process strengthened by the skills and knowledge of the community and I look forward to what the U4C Building Committee creates.

This year, Feminism and Folklore will focus on feminism, women's issues, and gender-focused topics for the project, with a [[:c:Commons:Wiki Loves Folklore 2024|Wiki Loves Folklore]] gender gap focus and a folk culture theme on Wikipedia. You can help Wikipedia's coverage of folklore from your area by writing or improving articles about things like folk festivals, folk dances, folk music, women and queer folklore figures, folk game athletes, women in mythology, women warriors in folklore, witches and witch hunting, fairy tales, and more. Users can help create new articles, expand or translate from a generated list of suggested articles. Organisers are requested to work on the following action items to sign up their communities for the project: # Create a page for the contest on the local wiki. # Set up a campaign on '''CampWiz''' tool. # Create the local list and mention the timeline and local and international prizes. # Request local admins for site notice. # Link the local page and the CampWiz link on the [[:m:Feminism and Folklore 2024/Project Page|meta project page]]. This year, the Wiki Loves Folklore Tech Team has introduced two new tools to enhance support for the campaign. These tools include the '''Article List Generator by Topic''' and '''CampWiz'''. The Article List Generator by Topic enables users to identify articles on the English Wikipedia that are not present in their native language Wikipedia. Users can customize their selection criteria, and the tool will present a table showcasing the missing articles along with suggested titles. Additionally, users have the option to download the list in both CSV and wikitable formats. Notably, the CampWiz tool will be employed for the project for the first time, empowering users to effectively host the project with a jury. Both tools are now available for use in the campaign.

The Board invites the whole movement to participate in this year’s selection process and vote to fill those seats. The [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections committee|Elections Committee]] will oversee this process with support from Foundation staff [2]. The Board Governance Committee created a Board Selection Working Group from Trustees who cannot be candidates in the 2024 community- and affiliate-selected trustee selection process composed of Dariusz Jemielniak, Nataliia Tymkiv, Esra'a Al Shafei, Kathy Collins, and Shani Evenstein Sigalov [3]. The group is tasked with providing Board oversight for the 2024 trustee selection process, and for keeping the Board informed. More details on the roles of the Elections Committee, Board, and staff are here [4]. Here are the key planned dates: * May 2024: Call for candidates and call for questions * June 2024: Affiliates vote to shortlist 12 candidates (no shortlisting if 15 or less candidates apply) [5] * June-August 2024: Campaign period * End of August / beginning of September 2024: Two-week community voting period * October–November 2024: Background check of selected candidates * Board's Meeting in December 2024: New trustees seated Learn more about the 2024 selection process - including the detailed timeline, the candidacy process, the campaign rules, and the voter eligibility criteria - on [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2024|this Meta-wiki page]], and make your plan. '''Election Volunteers''' Another way to be involved with the 2024 selection process is to be an Election Volunteer. Election Volunteers are a bridge between the Elections Committee and their respective community. They help ensure their community is represented and mobilize them to vote. Learn more about the program and how to join on this [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Foundation elections/2024/Election Volunteers|Meta-wiki page]].

I however see some challenges that our wikipedia is facing that I believe I can offer solutions to once elevated to the level of an administrator. such challenges include the auto translated articles that continue to be on the main page almost everyday leaving the information seekers 'bored' yet there are 3348 articles on the wikipedia (Olupapula Olusooka), the hard luganda language used on the wikipedia system that confuses editors and other contributors, to mention but a few.

This year, Feminism and Folklore will focus on feminism, women's issues, and gender-focused topics for the project, with a [[:c:Commons:Wiki Loves Folklore 2025|Wiki Loves Folklore]] gender gap focus and a folk culture theme on Wikipedia. You can help Wikipedia's coverage of folklore from your area by writing or improving articles about things like folk festivals, folk dances, folk music, women and queer folklore figures, folk game athletes, women in mythology, women warriors in folklore, witches and witch hunting, fairy tales, and more. Users can help create new articles, expand or translate from a generated list of suggested articles. Organisers are requested to work on the following action items to sign up their communities for the project: # Create a page for the contest on the local wiki. # Set up a campaign on '''CampWiz''' tool. # Create the local list and mention the timeline and local and international prizes. # Request local admins for site notice. # Link the local page and the CampWiz link on the [[:m:Feminism and Folklore 2025/Project Page|meta project page]]. This year, the Wiki Loves Folklore Tech Team has introduced two new tools to enhance support for the campaign. These tools include the '''Article List Generator by Topic''' and '''CampWiz'''. The Article List Generator by Topic enables users to identify articles on the English Wikipedia that are not present in their native language Wikipedia. Users can customize their selection criteria, and the tool will present a table showcasing the missing articles along with suggested titles. Additionally, users have the option to download the list in both CSV and wikitable formats. Notably, the CampWiz tool will be employed for the project for the first time, empowering users to effectively host the project with a jury. Both tools are now available for use in the campaign.

We have good news to share regarding the ongoing problem with graphs and charts affecting all wikis that use them. As you probably know, the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Graph|old Graph extension]] was disabled in 2023 [[listarchive:list/wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/EWL4AGBEZEDMNNFTM4FRD4MHOU3CVESO/|due to security reasons]]. We’ve worked in these two years to find a solution that could replace the old extension, and provide a safer and better solution to users who wanted to showcase graphs and charts in their articles. We therefore developed the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart|Charts extension]], which will be replacing the old Graph extension and potentially also the [[:mw:Extension:EasyTimeline|EasyTimeline extension]]. After successfully deploying the extension on Italian, Swedish, and Hebrew Wikipedia, as well as on MediaWiki.org, as part of a pilot phase, we are now happy to announce that we are moving forward with the next phase of deployment, which will also include your wiki. The deployment will happen in batches, and will start from '''May 6'''. Please, consult [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart/Project#Deployment Timeline|our page on MediaWiki.org]] to discover when the new Charts extension will be deployed on your wiki. You can also [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Chart|consult the documentation]] about the extension on MediaWiki.org. If you have questions, need clarifications, or just want to express your opinion about it, please refer to the [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension_talk:Chart/Project|project’s talk page on Mediawiki.org]], or ping me directly under this thread.

The [[mediawikiwiki:Wikimedia_Language_and_Product_Localization|WMF Language and Product Localization]] team proposes enabling an entry point called "Contribute" to your Wikipedia. The [[:bn:বিশেষ:Contribute|Contribute]] entry point is based on collaborative work with other product teams in the Wikimedia Foundation on [[mediawikiwiki:Edit_Discovery|Edit discovery]], which validated the entry point as a persistent and constant path that contributors took to discover ways to contribute content in Wikipedia. Therefore, enabling this entry point in your Wikipedia will help contributors quickly discover available tools and immediately click to start using them. This entry point is designed to be a central point for discovering contribution tools in Luganda Wikipedia. '''Who can access it''' Once it is enabled in your Wikipedia, newcomers can access the entry point automatically by just logging into their account, click on the User drop-down menu and choose the "Contribute" icon, which takes you to another menu where you will find a self-guided description of what you can do to contribute content, as shown in the image below. An option to "view contributions" is also available to access the list of your contributions. [[File:Mobile_Contribute_Page.png|Mobile Contribute Page]] [[File:Mobile_contribute_menu_(detailed).png|Mobile contribute menu (detailed)]] For experienced contributors, the Contribute icon is not automatically shown in their User drop-down menu. They will still see the "Contributions" option unless they change it to the "Contribute" manually. We have gotten valuable feedback that helped us improve its discoverability. Now, it is ready to be enabled in other Wikis. One major improvement was to [[phab:T369041|make the entry point optional for experienced contributors]] who still want to have the "Contributions" entry point as default.           We plan to enable it '''on mobile''' for Wikis, where the Section translation tool is enabled. In this way, we will provide a main entry point to the mobile translation dashboard, and the exposure can still be limited by targeting only the mobile platform for now. If there are no objections to having the entry point for mobile users from your community, we will enable it by 10th June 2025. We welcome your feedback and questions in this thread on our proposal to enable it here. Suppose there are no objections, we will deploy the "Contribute" entry point in your Wikipedia. We look forward to your response soon. Thank you! On behalf of the WMF Language and Product Localization team.

The Board invites the whole movement to participate in this year’s selection process and vote to fill those seats. The Elections Committee will oversee this process with support from Foundation staff [2]. The Governance Committee, composed of trustees who are not candidates in the 2025 community-and-affiliate-selected trustee selection process (Raju Narisetti, Shani Evenstein Sigalov, Lorenzo Losa, Kathy Collins, Victoria Doronina and Esra’a Al Shafei) [3], is tasked with providing Board oversight for the 2025 trustee selection process and for keeping the Board informed. More details on the roles of the Elections Committee, Board, and staff are here [4]. Here are the key planned dates: * May 22 – June 5: Announcement (this communication) and call for questions period [6] * June 17 – July 1, 2025: Call for candidates * July 2025: If needed, affiliates vote to shortlist candidates if more than 10 apply [5] * August 2025: Campaign period * August – September 2025: Two-week community voting period * October – November 2025: Background check of selected candidates * Board’s Meeting in December 2025: New trustees seated Learn more about the 2025 selection process - including the detailed timeline, the candidacy process, the campaign rules, and the voter eligibility criteria - on this Meta-wiki page [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2025|[link]]]. '''Call for Questions''' In each selection process, the community has the opportunity to submit questions for the Board of Trustees candidates to answer. The Election Committee selects questions from the list developed by the community for the candidates to answer. Candidates must answer all the required questions in the application in order to be eligible; otherwise their application will be disqualified. This year, the Election Committee will select 5 questions for the candidates to answer. The selected questions may be a combination of what’s been submitted from the community, if they’re alike or related. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2025/Questions_for_candidates|[link]]] '''Election Volunteers''' Another way to be involved with the 2025 selection process is to be an Election Volunteer. Election Volunteers are a bridge between the Elections Committee and their respective community. They help ensure their community is represented and mobilize them to vote.

This extension is designed to help organizers plan and manage events, WikiProjects, and other on-wiki collaborations - and to make these efforts more discoverable. The three main features of this extension are: * '''[[:m:Event_Center/Registration|Event Registration]]''': A simple way to sign up for events on the wiki. * '''[[:m:CampaignEvents/Collaboration_list|Collaboration List]]''': A global list of events and a local list of WikiProjects, accessible at '''[[:m:Special:AllEvents|Special:AllEvents]]'''. * '''[[:m:Campaigns/Foundation_Product_Team/Invitation_list|Invitation Lists]]''': A tool to help organizers find editors who might want to join, based on their past contributions. '''Note''': The extension comes with a new user right called '''"Event Organizer"''', which will be managed by administrators on this wiki. Organizer tools like Event Registration and Invitation Lists will only work if someone is granted this right. The Collaboration List is available to everyone immediately after deployment. The extension is already live on several wikis, including '''Meta, Wikidata, English Wikipedia''', and more ( [[m:CampaignEvents/Deployment_status#Current_Deployment_Status_for_CampaignEvents_extension| See the full deployment list]]) If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback, please feel free to share them on the [[m:Talk:CampaignEvents| extension talkpage]].

A vision of relevant, accessible, and impactful free knowledge has always guided the Wikimedia Movement. As the ecosystem of Wikimedia projects continues to evolve, it is crucial that we periodically review existing projects to ensure they still align with our goals and community capacity. Despite their noble intent, some projects may no longer effectively serve their original purpose. '''Reviewing such projects is not about giving up – it's about responsible stewardship of shared resources'''. Volunteer time, staff support, infrastructure, and community attention are finite, and the non-technical costs tend to grow significantly as our ecosystem has entered a different age of the internet than the one we were founded in. Supporting inactive projects or projects that didn't meet our ambitions can unintentionally divert these resources from areas with more potential impact. Moreover, maintaining projects that no longer reflect the quality and reliability of the Wikimedia name stands for, involves a reputational risk. An abandoned or less reliable project affects trust in the Wikimedia movement. Lastly, '''failing to sunset or reimagine projects that are no longer working can make it much harder to start new ones'''. When the community feels bound to every past decision – no matter how outdated – we risk stagnation. A healthy ecosystem must allow for evolution, adaptation, and, when necessary, letting go. If we create the expectation that every project must exist indefinitely, we limit our ability to experiment and innovate. Because of this, SPTF reviewed two requests concerning the lifecycle of the Sister Projects to work through and demonstrate the review process. We chose Wikispore as a case study for a possible new Sister Project opening and Wikinews as a case study for a review of an existing project. Preliminary findings were discussed with the CAC, and a community consultation on both proposals was recommended. === Wikispore === The [[m:Wikispore|application to consider Wikispore]] was submitted in 2019. SPTF decided to review this request in more depth because rather than being concentrated on a specific topic, as most of the proposals for the new Sister Projects are, Wikispore has the potential to nurture multiple start-up Sister Projects. After careful consideration, the SPTF has decided '''not to recommend''' Wikispore as a Wikimedia Sister Project. Considering the current activity level, the current arrangement allows '''better flexibility''' and experimentation while WMF provides core infrastructural support. We acknowledge the initiative's potential and seek community input on what would constitute a sufficient level of activity and engagement to reconsider its status in the future. As part of the process, we shared the decision with the Wikispore community and invited one of its leaders, Pharos, to an SPTF meeting. Currently, we especially invite feedback on measurable criteria indicating the project's readiness, such as contributor numbers, content volume, and sustained community support. This would clarify the criteria sufficient for opening a new Sister Project, including possible future Wikispore re-application. However, the numbers will always be a guide because any number can be gamed. === Wikinews === We chose to review Wikinews among existing Sister Projects because it is the one for which we have observed the highest level of concern in multiple ways. Since the SPTF was convened in 2023, its members have asked for the community's opinions during conferences and community calls about Sister Projects that did not fulfil their promise in the Wikimedia movement.[https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:WCNA_2024._Sister_Projects_-_opening%3F_closing%3F_merging%3F_splitting%3F.pdf <nowiki>[1]</nowiki>][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Community_Affairs_Committee/Sister_Projects_Task_Force#Wikimania_2023_session_%22Sister_Projects:_past,_present_and_the_glorious_future%22 <nowiki>[2]</nowiki>][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConvention_francophone/2024/Programme/Quelle_proc%C3%A9dure_pour_ouvrir_ou_fermer_un_projet_%3F <nowiki>[3]</nowiki>] Wikinews was the leading candidate for an evaluation because people from multiple language communities proposed it. Additionally, by most measures, it is the least active Sister Project, with the greatest drop in activity over the years. While the Language Committee routinely opens and closes language versions of the Sister Projects in small languages, there has never been a valid proposal to close Wikipedia in major languages or any project in English. This is not true for Wikinews, where there was a proposal to close English Wikinews, which gained some traction but did not result in any action[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposals_for_closing_projects/Closure_of_English_Wikinews <nowiki>[4]</nowiki>][https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConvention_francophone/2024/Programme/Quelle_proc%C3%A9dure_pour_ouvrir_ou_fermer_un_projet_%3F <nowiki>[5]</nowiki>, see section 5] as well as a draft proposal to close all languages of Wikinews[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Proposals_for_closing_projects/Archive_2#Close_Wikinews_completely,_all_languages? <nowiki>[6]</nowiki>]. [[:c:File:Sister Projects Taskforce Wikinews review 2024.pdf|Initial metrics]] compiled by WMF staff also support the community's concerns about Wikinews. Based on this report, SPTF recommends a community reevaluation of Wikinews. We conclude that its current structure and activity levels are the lowest among the existing sister projects. SPTF also recommends pausing the opening of new language editions while the consultation runs. SPTF brings this analysis to a discussion and welcomes discussions of alternative outcomes, including potential restructuring efforts or integration with other Wikimedia initiatives. '''Options''' mentioned so far (which might be applied to just low-activity languages or all languages) include but are not limited to: *Restructure how Wikinews works and is linked to other current events efforts on the projects, *Merge the content of Wikinews into the relevant language Wikipedias, possibly in a new namespace, *Merge content into compatibly licensed external projects, *Archive Wikinews projects. Your insights and perspectives are invaluable in shaping the future of these projects. We encourage all interested community members to share their thoughts on the relevant discussion pages or through other designated feedback channels. === Feedback and next steps === We'd be grateful if you want to take part in a conversation on the future of these projects and the review process. We are setting up two different project pages: [[m:Public consultation about Wikispore|Public consultation about Wikispore]] and [[m:Public consultation about Wikinews|Public consultation about Wikinews]]. Please participate between 27 June 2025 and 27 July 2025, after which we will summarize the discussion to move forward. You can write in your own language.

But it is also relevant to community members like mentors, patrollers, and admins – anyone who reverts edits, blocks users, or otherwise interacts with logged-out editors as part of keeping the wikis safe and accurate. '''Why we are building temporary accounts''' Our wikis should be safer to edit by default for logged-out editors. Temporary accounts allow people to continue editing the wikis without creating an account, while avoiding publicly tying their edits to their IP address. We believe this is in the best interest of our logged-out editors, who make valuable contributions to the wikis and who may later create accounts and grow our community of editors, admins, and other roles. Even though the wikis do warn logged-out editors that their IP address will be associated with their edit, many people may not understand what an IP address is, or that it could be used to connect them to other information about them in ways they might not expect. Additionally, our moderation software and tools rely too heavily on network origin (IP addresses) to identify users and patterns of activity, especially as IP addresses themselves are becoming less stable as identifiers. Temporary accounts allow for more precise interactions with logged-out editors, including more precise blocks, and can help limit how often we unintentionally end up blocking good-faith users who use the same IP addresses as bad-faith users. '''How temporary accounts work''' [[File:Temporary account banner and empty talk page.png|thumb]] Any time a logged-out user publishes an edit on this wiki, a cookie will be set in this user's browser, and a temporary account tied with this cookie will be automatically created. This account's name will follow the pattern: <code dir=ltr>~2025-12345-67</code> (a tilde, current year, a number). On pages like Recent Changes or page history, this name will be displayed. The cookie will expire 90 days after its creation. As long as it exists, all edits made from this device will be attributed to this temporary account. It will be the same account even if the IP address changes, unless the user clears their cookies or uses a different device or web browser. A record of the IP address used at the time of each edit will be stored for 90 days after the edit. However, only some logged-in users will be able to see it. '''What does this mean for different groups of users?''' '''For logged-out editors''' * This increases privacy: currently, if you do not use a registered account to edit, then everybody can see the IP address for the edits you made, even after 90 days. That will no longer be possible on this wiki. * If you use a temporary account to edit from different locations in the last 90 days (for example at home and at a coffee shop), the edit history and the IP addresses for all those locations will now be recorded together, for the same temporary account. Users who [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Access_to_temporary_account_IP_addresses|meet the relevant requirements]] will be able to view this data. If this creates any personal security concerns for you, please contact talktohumanrights at wikimedia.org for advice. '''For community members interacting with logged-out editors''' * A temporary account is uniquely linked to a device. In comparison, an IP address can be shared with different devices and people (for example, different people at school or at work might have the same IP address). * Compared to the current situation, it will be safer to assume that a temporary user's talk page belongs to only one person, and messages left there will be read by them. As you can see in the screenshot, temporary account users will receive notifications. It will also be possible to thank them for their edits, ping them in discussions, and invite them to get more involved in the community. '''For users who use IP address data to moderate and maintain the wiki''' * '''For patrollers''' who track persistent abusers, investigate violations of policies, etc.: Users who [[foundation:Special:MyLanguage/Policy:Access_to_temporary_account_IP_addresses|meet the requirements]] will be able to reveal temporary users' IP addresses and all contributions made by temporary accounts from a specific IP address or range ([[Special:IPContributions]]). They will also have access to useful information about the IP addresses thanks to the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/IP Info|IP Info]] feature. Many other pieces of software have been built or adjusted to work with temporary accounts, including AbuseFilter, global blocks, Global User Contributions, and more. (For information for volunteer developers on how to update the code of your tools – see the last part of the message.) * '''For admins blocking logged-out editors''': ** It will be possible to block many abusers by just blocking their temporary accounts. A blocked person won't be able to create new temporary accounts quickly if the admin selects the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Autoblock|autoblock]] option. ** It will still be possible to block an IP address or IP range. * Temporary accounts will not be retroactively applied to contributions made before the deployment. On Special:Contributions, you will be able to see existing IP user contributions, but not new contributions made by temporary accounts on that IP address. Instead, you should use Special:IPContributions for this. '''Our requests for you, and next steps''' * If you know of any tools, bots, gadgets etc. using data about IP addresses or being available for logged-out users, you may want to test if they work on [[testwiki:Main_Page|testwiki]] or [[test2wiki:Main_Page|test2wiki]]. If you are a volunteer developer, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/For developers|read our documentation for developers]], and in particular, the section on [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/For developers#How should I update my code?|how your code might need to be updated]]. * If you want to test the temporary account experience, for example just to check what it feels like, go to testwiki or test2wiki and edit without logging in. * Tell us if you know of any difficulties that need to be addressed. We will try to help, and if we are not able, we will consider the available options. * Look at our [[m:Meta:Babel#Temporary_Accounts:_access_to_IP_addresses_and_next_steps|previous message]] about requirements for users without extended rights who may need access to IP addresses. To learn more about the project, check out [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Trust and Safety Product/Temporary Accounts/FAQ|our FAQ]] – you will find many useful answers there.

I am glad to inform you that as the next step in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification|Parser Unification]] project, Parsoid will soon be turned on as the default article renderer on your wiki. We are gradually increasing the number of wikis using Parsoid, with the intention of making it the default wikitext parser for MediaWiki's next long-term support release. This will make our wikis more reliable and consistent for editors, readers, and tools to use, as well as making the development of future wikitext features easier. If this disrupts your workflow, don’t worry! You can still opt out through a user preference or turn Parsoid off on the current page using the Tools submenu, as described in the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:ParserMigration|Extension:ParserMigration]] documentation. There is [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Parsoid/Parser Unification/Confidence Framework|more information about our roll-out strategy]] available, including the testing done before we turn on Parsoid for a new wiki.

While a similar template is automatically generated by the system from [[MediaWiki:Cascadeprotected]] as an [[WP:Editnotice|edit notice]] when someone tries to edit ("view source") on such a template, they have to actually try that before they get any inkling that the template is protected because of cascading. By putting a notice also on the template's /doc page, this should forestall attempts to have the template's protection level reduced to [[Wikipedia:Template editor|template editor]] level (such requests must always be declined in cases of cascade-protection). == Usage == Just add {{tlx|Cascade-protected template}} near the top of the template's /doc subpage (usually right below the {{tlx|documentation subpage}} header). In the odd case that the cascade-protected page is not a template, {{para|page}} can be used to change the word, e.g. {{para|page|interface page}}. {{Strong|This template is not for temporary protection.}} Many pages get short-term cascade-protected because of transclusion from an article listed on the [[Main Page]] for a few days. We do not need to tag then untag 100+ templates with this notice during that period. Volunteer editorial time is Wikipedia's most precious resource, and [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#BUREAUCRACY|Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy]]. <includeonly>{{sandbox other|| <!-- Categories below this line, please; interwikis at Wikidata --> [[Category:Wikipedia fully protected templates]] [[Category:Template namespace templates]] }}</includeonly> 70etgqc65yqn0458zvaow0oyzrlrcs6 10 13440 50498 2026-05-09T14:08:21Z SyntaxTerror 11090 Created page with "{{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#invoke:delink|delink}}<noinclude> {{documentation}} <!-- Categories go on the /doc subpage, and interwikis go on Wikidata. --> </noinclude>" 50498 wikitext text/x-wiki {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#invoke:delink|delink}}<noinclude> {{documentation}} <!-- Categories go on the /doc subpage, and interwikis go on Wikidata. --> </noinclude> nxxwkb2lon9wgne4irg9ctbsle6zwiy 10 13441 50499 2026-05-09T14:08:46Z SyntaxTerror 11090 Created page with "{{High-use}} {{cascade-protected template}} {{Documentation subpage}} {{lua|Module:Delink}} <!-- Categories go at the bottom of this page and interwikis go in Wikidata. --> This template removes links from wikitext.

It handles most wikitext correctly, including category links, the [[Help:Colon trick|colon trick]], the [[Help:Pipe trick|pipe trick]] (normal and reverse), nested wikilinks, and invalid link characters. ==Usage== * Basic *: {{tlx|delink|''text''}} * All parameters *: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"> {{delink | 1 = | wikilinks = no | urls = no | comments = no | whitespace = no | refs = yes }} </syntaxhighlight> ==Parameters== *<code>1</code> - the text to be de-linked. *<code>wikilinks</code> *: - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", wikilinks are not de-linked. *: - if set to "target", wikilinks are reduced to the target portion of a wikilink ({{elc|{{vr|{{var|target}}}}|{{vr|{{var|label}}}}}} → {{samp|{{vr|{{var|target}}}}}}) *<code>urls</code> - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", URL links are not de-linked. *<code>comments</code> - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", HTML comments are not removed. *<code>whitespace</code> - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", whitespace is not normalised. The normalisation makes the whitespace of the resulting text look as if it had been put through the MediaWiki parser. For example, single newlines are converted to a single space, but double newlines are left alone. *<code>refs</code> - (experimental) if set to "yes", "y", "true", or "1", removes references. This is not recommended, as only the ^[1], ^[2], etc. markers will be removed - the references themselves will still appear at the end of the page.

characters substituted with html entities) *<code>output</code> = the execution result of the source. *<code>frame</code> = the frame from which this template took the parameter. By default, {{code|get()}} takes the first parameter of frame. If the frame uses a different parameter name for the nowiki-wrapped source, then place that name (as a string) as the second parameter, like so {{code|require('Module:demo').get(frame, 'alternate_name')|lua}} Example: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> local p = {} function p.main(frame) local parts = require('Module:demo').get(frame) return '…Pretty HTML… <pre>' .. parts.source .. '</pre> …More pretty HTML… ' .. parts.output .. ' …Even more pretty HTML…' end return p</syntaxhighlight> == See also == * [[Template:Nowiki template demo]] which uses [[Module:Template test case]] * [[Template:Automarkup]] which uses [[Module:Automarkup]] <includeonly>{{#ifeq:{{SUBPAGENAME}}|sandbox | | <!-- Categories below this line, please; interwikis at Wikidata --> }}</includeonly><noinclude> [[Category:Module documentation pages]] </noinclude> q7vd4ny4fv4oebsiazeobup3v580j3c 10 13446 50504 2026-05-09T14:13:53Z SyntaxTerror 11090 Redirected page to [[Template:Module link expanded]] 50504 wikitext text/x-wiki #REDIRECT [[Template:Module link expanded]] {{Redirect category shell| {{R from move}} }} 6u0mtd8wyt6sh6giz1fysuswgr4n06a 10 13447 50505 2026-05-09T14:14:20Z SyntaxTerror 11090 Created page with "<includeonly><code>&#123;&#123;{{{{{|safesubst:}}}#invoke:Separated entries|main|[[Module:{{{1}}}{{{section|}}}|#invoke:{{{1}}}]]|{{{2|''function''}}}|separator=&#124;}}&#125;&#125;</code></includeonly><noinclude>{{documentation}}<!-- Categories go on the /doc subpage and interwikis go on Wikidata. --></noinclude>" 50505 wikitext text/x-wiki <includeonly><code>&#123;&#123;{{{{{|safesubst:}}}#invoke:Separated entries|main|[[Module:{{{1}}}{{{section|}}}|#invoke:{{{1}}}]]|{{{2|''function''}}}|separator=&#124;}}&#125;&#125;</code></includeonly><noinclude>{{documentation}}<!-- Categories go on the /doc subpage and interwikis go on Wikidata. --></noinclude> tpsa8jwnzpeoby534aj24ra9nao5hif 10 13448 50506 2026-05-09T14:15:07Z SyntaxTerror 11090 Created page with "{{Documentation subpage}} {{tsh|mlx}}{{lua|Module:Separated entries}} {{tlb|Module link expanded}} (often abbreviated <nowiki>{{mlx}}</nowiki>) is used to display a module name as a link surrounded by braces with the {{((}}#invoke{{))}} [[WP:PF|parser function]], thus showing the module name as code rather than actually invoking it.

(string) </div> == Tags == Docbunto provides fifty two tags to document items. To document subitem types, Docbunto uses JSDoc-style <code>{type}</code> prefixes for typed subitem tags (e.g: <code>@param {bool}</code> or <code>@field {string}</code>. To designate optional subitems, Docbunto uses the LDoc-style <code>[opt]</code> modifier affixed to the tag (e.g: <code>@param[opt] verbose</code>). === Item type tags === Item type tags are the heart of Docbunto, and provide the name and type of a documentation item. Each item is rendered as a definition list with a description below it. Subitem tags can be placed alongside the item comments to provide further information. ;<code id="tag-function">@function</code> (item; specialised; alias <code>@lfunction</code>) :Module-level function, either inside a table or outside. The documented, top-level parameters of the function are rendered adjacent to the name in parentheses. Relevant tags include <code>[[#tag-param|@param]]</code>, <code>[[#tag-error|@error]]</code>, <code>[[#tag-return|@return]]</code> and <code>[[#tag-factory|@factory]]</code>. ;<code id="tag-table">@table</code> (item; specialised) :Module-level table, ideally a table constructor delimited by <code>{}</code>. Relevant tags include <code>[[#tag-field|@field]]</code>. ;<code id="tag-member">@member</code> (item; generic; alias <code>@property</code>) :Module or class data member, typically a primitive value (<code>string</code>, <code>boolean</code> or <code>number</code> type). As this tag denotes a generic type, Docbunto will try to qualify the type with a <code>{type}</code> prefix. ;<code id="tag-variable">@variable</code> (item; generic) :Local variable. Can be rendered with a primitive type qualifier, as with <code>[[#tag-member|@member]]</code>. Implies <code>[[#tag-local|@local]]</code> tag. ;<code id="tag-section">@section</code> (section) :Section header, used to structure documentation. The summary (or value) of a <code>[[#tag-section|@section]]</code> item is rendered as a header, while the description is rendered below it as a paragraph if present. ;<code id="tag-type">@type</code> (section; class; alias <code>@typedef</code>) :Module-level [https://www.lua.org/pil/16.1.html emulated class] variable. A <code>[[#tag-type|@type]]</code> tag is rendered as a header for the class name, with the description in a paragraph below. === Subitem tags === Subitem tags can be used at the module and item level to associate information with a Lua module or item. These tags are rendered as subitems below the description, inside nested definition or unordered lists. ;<code id="tag-usage">@usage</code> (preformatted multi-line; alias <code>@code</code>) :Code demonstration, rendered in preformatted text. The tag provides brace-delimited wikitext or Lua syntax highlighting, depending on the value. ;<code id="tag-param">@param</code> (multi-line; alias <code>@argument</code>) :Parameter tag, accepting multi-line values and <code>{type}</code> notation. Optional parameters have <code>[opt]</code> affixed to the tag. In module-level comment blocks, this tag implies a [https://github.com/stevedonovan/LDoc/blob/master/tests/funmod.lua function module]. ;<code id="tag-field">@field</code> (multi-line) :Table field name, identified by index key. Supports <code>{type}</code> notation for field value. ;<code id="tag-error">@error</code> (multi-line; alias <code>@raise</code>, <code>@throws</code> or <code>@exception</code>) :Error thrown by a Lua function. Accepts type via <code>{type}</code> notation. The line number can be specified by <code>[number]</code> affixed to the tag. ;<code id="tag-return">@return</code> (multi-line; alias <code>@returns</code>) :Return value for function, supporting Lua's multiple returns. Accepts type via <code>{type}</code> notation, and accepts <code>[opt]</code> affixed to the tag if they are not always returned. In module-level comment blocks, this tag implies a [https://github.com/stevedonovan/LDoc/blob/master/tests/funmod.lua function module]. === Typed subitem tags === These are typed versions of subitem tags. These tags are added for backwards compatibility with [https://github.com/stevedonovan/LDoc LDoc]. These tags either imply a tag type, or permit types with <code>type</code> prefix notation (as with LDoc). ;<code id="tag-tfield">@tfield</code> (multi-line) :Typed <code>[[#tag-field|@field]]</code> tag. Expects <code>type</code> prefix without spaces. ;<code id="tag-tparam">@tparam</code> (multi-line) :Typed <code>[[#tag-param|@param]]</code> tag. Expects <code>type</code> prefix without spaces. ;<code id="tag-treturn">@treturn</code> (multi-line) :Typed <code>[[#tag-return|@return]]</code> tag. Expects <code>type</code> prefix without spaces. ;<code id="tag-bool">@bool</code> (multi-line) :Boolean table field, or boolean function parameter. Implies <code>boolean</code> type. ;<code id="tag-func">@func</code> (multi-line) :Function table field, or subroutine function parameter. Implies <code>function</code> type. ;<code id="tag-int">@int</code> (multi-line) :Integer table field, or integer function parameter. Implies <code>number</code> type. ;<code id="tag-number">@number</code> (multi-line) :Numeric table field, or numeric function parameter. Implies <code>number</code> type. ;<code id="tag-string">@string</code> (multi-line) :String table field, or string function parameter. Implies <code>string</code> type. ;<code id="tag-tab">@tab</code> (multi-line) :Tabular table field, or table function parameter. Implies <code>table</code> type. === Module type tags === These tags are used at the project level to identify the module name and type. These tags are usually optional & are used to customise the package name for a module function. ;<code id="tag-module">@module</code> (executable; invocable; alias <code>@package</code>) :Executable Scribunto modules. Docbunto documentation defaults to this type. ;<code id="tag-script">@script</code> (executable) :Executable scripts (libraries) exclusively used in other modules. ;<code id="tag-classmod">@classmod</code> (executable) :Defines a class module used to create objects. Unlike the <code>[[#tag-type|@type]]</code> tag, class modules are externally usable by other Lua modules. ;<code id="tag-submodule">@submodule</code> (non-executable) :Lua code items to be coalesced into another module package. ;<code id="tag-example">@example</code> (non-executable) :Non-executable code example, used to support documentation. ;<code id="tag-field">@file</code> (non-executable) :Non-executable, generic Lua modules for consumption by other modules. Often data used by <code>mw.loadData</code>. ;<code id="tag-topic">@topic</code> (non-executable) :Static documentation file, designed for human reading. Implies the file is non-executable. === Module information tags === These tags provide general information about a module, independent of the code items the module contains. ;<code id="tag-image">@image</code> (single-line; single-use) :Infobox image for {{t|Infobox Lua}}. Only supports single images. ;<code id="tag-caption">@caption</code> (single-line; single-use) :Infobox image caption for {{t|Infobox Lua}}. ;<code id="tag-release">@release</code> (single-line; single-use) :Release status for the module, indicating stability. See the {{t|Status}} template for accepted values. ;<code id="tag-author">@author</code> (single-line) :An author for a Lua file, responsible for code development or maintenance. ;<code id="tag-copyright">@copyright</code> (single-line; single-use) :Copyright (corporate or crowdsourced) ownership for file. This item is not rendered. ;<code id="tag-license">@license</code> (single-line; single-use) :License for the source code of the module. This item is not rendered, as it is assumed the code is licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0 or to the public domain. However, it is a useful substitute to license boilerplate. ;<code id="tag-require">@require</code> (single-line; alias <code>@requires</code>) :Dependency for the module. Accepts the full page name as a value. ;<code id="tag-credit">@credit</code> (single-line; alias <code>@credits</code>) :An author of external source code, whose work has been reused in the module. ;<code id="tag-attribution">@attribution</code> (single-line) :A contributor who has contributed to a module without authoring it or any source code. === Flags === Flags are item tags that provide additional information about a Docbunto item. These do not require a value and act as item modifiers. ;<code id="tag-local">@local</code> (item flag) :Lack of external access or usage for Lua items, outside of their block scope. ;<code id="tag-export">@export</code> (inline flag) :Precedes export table constructors in factory functions or modules. Docbunto can infer that export field variables are package or class items, and render them as namepaths in the corresponding namespace. If you are mapping a field variable to a different key name, use the <code>[[#tag-alias|@alias]]</code> tag. ;<code id="tag-private">@private</code> (item flag) :Access restriction flag for Lua items. Alias for the <code>[[#tag-private|@private]]</code> tag. ;<code id="tag-constructor">@constructor</code> (item flag) :Class subroutine used for object creation. ;<code id="tag-static">@static</code> (item flag) :Whether a class method is independent of class instantiation. In Lua, static methods are called with <code>Class.method(...)</code> instead of <code>Class:method(...)</code>. When a factory exports functions without a <code>self</code>, Docbunto uses this flag to format static methods exported by a class correctly. === Override tags === These tags are added for backwards compatibility with [https://github.com/keplerproject/luadoc LuaDoc]. They overwrite item information deduced by Docbunto. It is generally advised to avoid using these tags. ;<code id="tag-class">@class</code> (single-line; identifier) :Type override for Docbunto item, kept for backward compatibility with LuaDoc. Not to be mistaken with the <code>[[#tag-type|@type]]</code> tag for classes. ;<code id="tag-name">@name</code> (single-line; identifier) :Variable name override for Docbunto item. The value of the tag is equivalent to the full internal Lua variable name within the module source, and must include any table indexes. ;<code id="tag-alias">@alias</code> (single-line; identifier) :External name for Docbunto item when used by other modules. When an item is exported by a module or factory function, the alias is the external index (including the <code><nowiki>[]</nowiki></code> square bracket operators). ;<code id="tag-summary">@summary</code> (single-line; alias <code>@abstract</code>, <code>@about</code> or <code>@bug</code>) :Brief item summary for documentation, limited to a sentence. ;<code id="tag-description">@description</code> (multi-line; alias <code>@details</code> or <code>@discussion</code>) :Extended item description for documentation. Can span multiple lines and paragraphs. === Annotation tags === These tags provide comments & explanation for functionality, or issues adjacent to a code item. Annotations can be used globally, in a module or item comment block. However, annotations cannot be used inline in a code item. ;<code id="tag-warning">@warning</code> (multi-line) :Developer warning for users of missing or changing functionality. ;<code id="tag-fixme">@fixme</code> (multi-line; alias <code>@bug</code>) :Developer bug reminder, to be patched in future. ;<code id="tag-note">@note</code> (multi-line) :Developer notes for users or other maintainers. ;<code id="tag-todo">@todo</code> (multi-line) :TODO note for developer and other maintainers. If placed on a module using auto documentation, will populate [[:Category:Modules with TODO items]]. ;<code id="tag-see">@see</code> (multi-line) :Additional, external pages or information to direct the user to. === Other tags === ;<code id="tag-pragma">@pragma</code> (single-line) :Processing [[Directive (programming)|directive]] for Docbunto. Allows the developer to override Docbunto options from the source code. :Accepts <code>[yesno]</code> modifier affixed to tag; this can be used to deactivate options. :'''Usage:''' :* <code>@pragma all</code> - documents private parameters (like <code>options.all</code> set to <code>true</code>) :* <code>@pragma[off] code</code> - renders article infobox and lede (like <code>options.code</code> set to <code>false</code>/<code>nil</code>) ;<code id="tag-factory">@factory</code> (single-line) :Factory function used for object creation. The value of this tag is the class name for the exported instance. Docbunto prefixes exported items with the class name for convenience. For class methods that are missing a <code>self</code> parameter, the <code>[[#tag-static|@static]]</code> flag can be used. == Types and item references == Docbunto recognises fourteen '''types''' and links them to entries in the [[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual|Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual]]. Other types are assumed to be custom classes defined with the <code>[[#tag-type|@type]]</code> tag in the documentation page. The <code>[[#docbunto.build|noluaref]]</code> option will disable these manual links if they become excessive. ;Lua whitelisted native types. :* <code id="type-nil">nil</code> :* <code id="type-boolean">boolean</code> (alias <code>bool</code>) :* <code id="type-string">string</code> :* <code id="type-number">number</code> (alias <code>int</code>) :* <code id="type-table">table</code> (alias <code>tab</code>) :* <code id="type-function">function</code> (alias <code>func</code>) ;Scribunto library classes. :* <code id="type-DataWrapper">DataWrapper</code> (alias <code>mw.loadData</code>) :* <code id="type-Frame">Frame</code> :* <code id="type-Lang">Lang</code> (alias <code>mw.language</code>) :* <code id="type-Uri">Uri</code> (alias <code>mw.uri</code>) :* <code id="type-HTMLBuilder">HTMLBuilder</code> (alias <code>mw.html</code>) :* <code id="type-Msg">Msg</code> (alias <code>mw.msg</code>) '''Item references''', in the <code>[[#format-ref|@{item|text}]]</code> syntax, also support global functions and library items available to Scribunto. These will link to the relevant entry in the [[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#Standard libraries|standard library documentation]] or [[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#Scribunto libraries|Scribunto library documentation]] on MediaWiki. == Infobox customisation == A custom infobox can be generated by creating '''Module:Docbunto/infobox''' with a function: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> --- Infobox for Lua modules. -- @script infobox -- @param {table} data Taglet documentation data. -- @param {string} codepage Code page name. -- @param {table} frame Template invocation frame. -- @param {table} options Docbunto configuration options. -- @return {table} Infobox template data for `frame:expandTemplate`. return function(data, codepage, frame, options) local infobox = {} -- Infobox template name. infobox.title = 'Infobox Lua' -- Infobox argument list. infobox.args = {} infobox.args.Title = codepage return infobox end </syntaxhighlight> == Formatting == Docbunto uses a strict subset of Markdown and MediaWiki syntax. Note that Markdown cannot be used in the documentation preface (<code>options.preface</code>). * <span id="format-bold">Bold</span>: <code><nowiki>'''Bold'''</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>**Bold**</nowiki></code> * <span id="format-italic">Italic</span>: <code><nowiki>''Emphasis''</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>*Emphasis*</nowiki></code> * <span id="format-header">Headers</span>: <code>=== Header ===</code> or <code>### Header ###</code> *: These need to be preceded by two newlines to work. *: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> -- This line belongs to a module documentation lede. -- -- ## Usage ## -- This line belongs to the @{Usage} section. </syntaxhighlight> * <span id="format-dl">Definition lists</span>: <code>; Definition term.</code> or <code>: Definition description.</code> * <span id="format-ol">Ordered lists</span>: <code># Numbered list item</code> * <span id="format-ul">Unordered lists</span>: <code>* Unsorted list item</code> * <span id="format-link">Links</span>: <code><nowiki>[https://mediawiki.org MediaWiki]</nowiki></code>, <code><nowiki>[[mw:MediaWiki]]</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>[https://commonmark.org](Markdown)</nowiki></code> * <span id="format-ref">Item references</span>: <code>@{item}</code> or <code>@{item{{!}}text}</code> * <span id="format-code">Code</span>: <code><nowiki><code>code</code></nowiki></code> or <code>`code`</code> * <span id="format-math">Math</span>: <code><nowiki><math display="inline">E=mc^2</math></nowiki></code> or <code>$$E=mc^2$$</code> * <span id="format-chem">Chemical equations</span>: <code><nowiki><chem>H2O</chem></nowiki></code> or <code>$$\ce{H2O}$$</code> * <span id="format-table">Tables</span>: <code><nowiki>{| ... |}</nowiki></code> (syntax is described in the [[Help:Tables|tables help page]]) Limitations: * Code blocks are not supported - this simplifies parsing of text paragraphs. The <code>@usage</code> tag is available for documenting code examples. * Markdown tables and open headers (using dashes below the header text) are too complex to parse without a full Markdown parser, and will not be added. <!-- The code block and open header limitations are possible to get around. --> |autodoc=1}} {{Sandbox other|| <!-- Categories below this line. --> [[Category:Wikipedia modules]] }} <noinclude> [[Category:Module documentation pages]] </noinclude> kg8aua8b5y6g6jfe27xs1znbpqfhvs0 828 13457 50515 2026-05-09T14:22:03Z SyntaxTerror 11090 Created page with "--- Reference table for Docbunto reference links. -- List of global functions and tables available in Scribunto. -- @file docbunto_references --- Reference data map for types. -- @property {table} docbunto_references.types --- Reference link map for global items. -- @property {table} docbunto_references.items return { types = { -- Lua types available to Scribunto.

This is to prevent abuse. All articles which include this template are assigned to [[:Category:Noindexed articles]] regardless of their age (and whether they are actually [[noindex]]ed or not). This template has no effect in the <code>Draft:</code> or <code>Draft Talk:</code> namespaces, both of which are automatically noindexed via a software setting. === Warnings === '''Note:''' to avoid unexpected results or unnecessary duplication, read [[Wikipedia:Controlling search engine indexing]] to make sure you are familiar with the different ways noindexing is done. This template should not be used in articles. If an article is bad enough that search engines shouldn't index it, it should be nominated for deletion. <code><nowiki>__NOINDEX__</nowiki></code> is disabled in [[WP:Main namespace|article space]] and this template consequently has no effect there. Note: major search engines should respect the NOINDEX tag, but it may take days or even weeks for content already indexed to be removed from them. === TemplateData === {{TemplateDataHeader}} <TemplateData> { "description": "This template adds __NOINDEX__ to a page, a search engine tag that prevents indexing", "params": { "visible": { "label": "Visible", "description": "When set to 'yes', the template will display a message stating that the page is not indexed.", "type": "string", "required": false }, "text": { "description": "Custom text that may be displayed (with the \"visible\" parameter on) to indicate the use of this template.", "type": "string", "default": "This page has been removed from search engines' indexes." } } } </TemplateData> === See also === * [[Template:INDEX]] {{When on basepage| <!-- Categories below this line, please;

He could crush every bone in your hand.-->]] A '''bot''' (a common nickname for [[Software agent|software robot]]) is an automated tool that carries out repetitive and mundane tasks to maintain the [[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFPAGES}}]] pages of the English Wikipedia. Bots are able to make edits very rapidly, but can disrupt Wikipedia if they are incorrectly designed or operated. For these reasons, a [[Wikipedia:Bot policy|bot policy]] has been developed. There are currently {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Approved Wikipedia bot requests for approval}} [[:Category:Approved Wikipedia bot requests for approval|bot tasks approved for use]] on the English Wikipedia; however, not all approved tasks involve actively carrying out edits. Bots will leave messages on user talk pages if the action that the bot has carried out is of interest to that editor, and leave messages on article talk pages when they make certain edits to articles. Some bots can be excluded from leaving these messages by using the {{tl|bots}} tags. There are {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Wikipedia bots which are exclusion compliant}} exclusion-compliant bots, which are listed in [[:Category:Wikipedia bots which are exclusion compliant|this category]]. There are [[Special:ListUsers/bot|{{NUMBERINGROUP:bot}}]] bots flagged with the "bot" flag right now (and over 400 [[Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of edits/Unflagged bots|former bots]]). There is also a range of [[Wikipedia:Tools/Editing tools#Semi-auto edit bots|tools]] that allow semi-automated editing of large numbers of articles. ==History== {{main|Wikipedia:History of Wikipedia bots}} Bots have been used in the past to create large numbers of articles that were uploaded to Wikipedia within a short timeframe. Some technical problems were experienced and this led to the formulation of a bot policy, as well as a [[WP:MASSCREATION|restriction]] on the automated, large-scale, creation of articles. ==Bot policy== {{main|Wikipedia:Bot policy}} Wikipedia policy requires that bots be harmless and useful, have approval, use separate user accounts, and be operated responsibly. ==Bot Approvals Group== {{main|Wikipedia:Bot Approvals Group}} The Bot Approvals Group (BAG) supervises and approves all bot-related activity from a technical and quality-control perspective on behalf of the English Wikipedia community. On the English Wikipedia, the right to [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats#Bot flags|flag]] a bot is limited to [[Wikipedia:bureaucrats|bureaucrats]]. Running an automated bot on a separate account requires approval, which may be requested at [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval]]. ==How to create a bot== {{main|Help:Creating a bot}} Some programming experience generally is needed to create a bot, and knowledge of [[regular expression]]s is useful for many editing tasks. However, some of the more user-friendly tools, such as [[WP:AutoWikiBrowser|AutoWikiBrowser]] or [[WP:JWB|JavaScript Wiki Browser]], can be used for some tasks. [[Chicken (Scheme implementation)|The Chicken Scheme]], Common Lisp, Haskell, Java, Microsoft .NET, Perl, PHP, Python, and Ruby programming languages all have libraries available for creating bots. [[mw:Manual:Pywikibot|Pywikibot]] is a commonly used Python package developed specifically for creating MediaWiki bots. == Dealing with bot issues == {{Main|Wikipedia:Bot policy#Dealing with issues}} {{trim|{{#section-h:Wikipedia:Bot policy|Minor malfunctions, complaints, and improvements}}}} {{trim|{{#section-h:Wikipedia:Bot policy|Major malfunctions and complaints}}}} ==How to hide a specific bot from your watchlist== {{Shortcut|WP:HIDEBOT|WP:HIDEBOTS}} While it is easy to [[Help:Watchlist#Options|hide all bots from your watchlist]], there is no way of hiding specific bots through user preferences or default watchlist settings. However, it is possible with a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts|user script]] by following these steps. '''Main steps''' # Go to your [[Special:MyPage/common.js]] page (or your [[Special:MyPage/skin.js]]), and add the following line ([[Special:Diff/487287533|diff]]): #:<syntaxhighlight lang=JS inline>importScript('User:UncleDouggie/smart_watchlist.js'); // Backlink: [[User:UncleDouggie/smart_watchlist]]</syntaxhighlight> # Go to [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rc]], check both the 'Group changes by page in recent changes and watchlist' and 'Use non-JavaScript interface' boxes, and click 'Save'. # Remember to [[Wikipedia:Bypass your cache|bypass your browser's cache]]. # Go to your watchlist. There should be a box with several options. Tick the 'Enable hide user buttons' box. This will let you hide specific bots (and users) from your watchlist. #: '''Note:''' You might want to untick the 'Enable hide user buttons' box after you ignore a bot to ensure that you don't accidentally click 'hide user' when browsing your watchlist. '''Optional steps''' # If you find the 'Enable hide user buttons' box annoying, go to your [[Special:MyPage/common.css]] page (or [[Special:MyPage/skin.css]]) and add the following line ([[Special:Diff/487288182|diff]]): #:<syntaxhighlight lang=CSS inline>#SmartWatchlistOptions {display:none !important;}</syntaxhighlight> # Remember to [[Wikipedia:Bypass your cache|bypass your browser's cache]]. # If you want to show the box again, for example to reset your ignore list, go to your [[Special:MyPage/common.css]] page and remove the line you added in optional step #1 (remembering to again [[Wikipedia:Bypass your cache|bypass your browser's cache]]). Redoing optional steps #1 and #2 will hide the box again. While you are completely free to ignore any bots (or users) you want, it is a good idea to only ignore bots with well-defined tasks, which you trust to not make any mistakes. ==How to hide AWB edits from your watchlist== {{Shortcut|WP:HIDEAWB}} There is no way of hiding [[Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser|AutoWikiBrowser]] (AWB) edits through user preferences or default watchlist settings. However, it is possible with a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts|user script]] by following these steps: '''Steps''' # Go to your [[Special:MyPage/common.js]] page (or your [[Special:MyPage/skin.js]]), and add the following two lines ([[Special:Diff/767295027|diff]]): #: <syntaxhighlight lang=JS>importScript( 'User:Evad37/Watchlist-hideAWB.js' ); // Backlink: [[User:Evad37/Watchlist-hideAWB]] var awbHiddenByDefault = true;</syntaxhighlight> # [[Wikipedia:Bypass your cache|Bypass your browser's cache]]. Any edit with "AWB" in its edit summary will now default to hidden for you. You may reveal them by clicking on the "show AWB" tab at the top of your watchlist (next to "Special page" for Monobook skin, or in the "More" dropdown for Vector skin). '''Notes:''' *If you leave out <syntaxhighlight lang=JS inline>var awbHiddenByDefault = true;</syntaxhighlight>, AWB edits will be shown by default, but you will have the option of hiding AWB edits by clicking on the "hide AWB" tab at the top of your watchlist. *While you are completely free to ignore AWB edits, remember that many of them will contain substantial changes from human editors, not just [[WP:MINOR|minor edits]] from bots or [[WP:MEATBOT|meatbots]]. *When hiding edits with a script, earlier edits can be forced to appear. Using the <code>Expand watchlist to show all changes, not just the most recent</code> [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-watchlist|preference]] option is necessary to see other non-hidden watchlist hits for a page. ==How to stop specific bots from editing the article== {{Main|Template:Bots}} It's rare that a mainspace article needs to not be edited by a specific bot. No article needs to stop all bots from editing, since antivandal bots such as [[User:ClueBot NG|ClueBot NG]] need to be able to edit all mainspace articles. The template {{tl|bots}} can stop a bot from editing an article under the rare circumstance it's needed. == Examples == <!-- New links in alphabetical order please --> Some examples of bots are: * [[User:AAlertBot]] – delivering [[WP:AALERTS|article alerts]] to WikiProjects about ongoing discussions. * [[User:AnomieBOT]] – large variety of tasks, most well known for adding dates to amboxes. * [[User:ClueBot NG]] – reverts possible [[WP:VAN|vandalism]]. * [[User:Citation bot]] – Adds PMIDs, ISBNs, etc. to pages. * [[User:CommonsDelinker]] – removes links to files deleted at [[Wikimedia Commons]] due to policy infractions. * [[User:DatBot]] – patrols the edit filters and resizes non-free images. * [[User:DumbBOT]] – often removes protection templates from recently unprotected pages. * [[User:InternetArchiveBot]] – retrieves archived copies of dead links. * [[User:ListeriaBot]] – Experimental bot by [[User:Magnus Manske|Magnus Manske]]. It generates and updates lists on Wikipedia. * [[User:Lowercase sigmabot III]] – archives talk pages. * [[User:ST47ProxyBot]] – automatically blocks proxies due to the local policy against [[WP:PROXY|open proxies]]. * [[User:SineBot]] – signs comments left on talk pages. * [[User:WP 1.0 bot]] – works with the [[WP:1|Version 1.0 Editorial Team]]. ==See also== '''Articles''' * [[Internet bot]] * [[Wikipedia bots]] '''Categories''' * [[:Category:Wikipedia bots|Wikipedia bots]] * [[:Category:Wikipedia bot requests for approval|Wikipedia bot requests for approval]] '''Meta''' * [[meta:bot]] * [[meta:Bot policy]] * [[meta:Countervandalism Network/Bots]] '''Barnstar''' * {{tlx|The Bot Creator Barnstar|put your message here. <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>}} – Awarded to an editor for creating a bot. * {{tlx|Bot operator's barnstar|put your message here. <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>}} – Bot operator's barnstar, Coders need love too.

This is useful when there are many known parameters which use a systematic pattern. * {{para|unknown}} – what happens when an unknown parameter is used. Typically use either a tracking category to place pages that use unknown parameters, or an error. * {{para|preview}} – the text to be displayed when in preview mode and an unknown parameter is used. * The <code>_VALUE_</code> keyword, if used, will be changed to the name of the parameter. This is useful for either sorting the entries in a tracking category, or for provide more explicit information. * {{para|ignoreblank|1}} – by default, the module makes no distinction between a defined-but-blank parameter and a non-blank parameter. That is, both unlisted {{Para|foo|x}} and {{Para|foo}} are reported. To only track non-blank parameters use {{para|ignoreblank|1}}. If you clean your arguments with [[Module:Arguments]] and call this module afterwards, you need not use this parameter as that module ignores blank arguments by default. * {{para|showblankpositional|1}} – by default, the module ignores blank positional parameters. That is, an unlisted {{para|2}} is ignored. To {{em|include}} blank positional parameters in the tracking use {{para|showblankpositional|1}}. * {{para|mapframe_args}} – When this is set to a non-null value, the various [[Module:Infobox mapframe]] parameters will be automatically included in the list of valid parameters.

It determines if the page is a redirect; if so it looks up the page, extracts the target, and returns the target name as text. Its usage is <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:redirect|main|page-name}}</nowiki></code>. If <code>page-name</code> does not exist or is not a redirect then <code>page-name</code> is returned. If <code>page-name</code> is blank then blank is returned. The function normally neither takes nor gives square brackets, so to show the result as a link use <code><nowiki>[[{{#invoke:redirect|main|page-name}}]]</nowiki></code>. If the parameter ''bracket'' is given a nonblank value, brackets will be passed on if present. === Examples === * <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:redirect|main|WP:AFC}}</nowiki></code> &rarr; {{#invoke:redirect|main|WP:AFC}} * <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:redirect|main|[[WP:AFD]]|bracket=yes}}</nowiki></code> &rarr; {{#invoke:redirect|main|[[WP:AFD]]|bracket=yes}} * <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:redirect|main|Wikipedia:Articles for deletion}}</nowiki></code> &rarr; {{#invoke:redirect|main|Wikipedia:Articles for deletion}} * <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:redirect|main|Red link example}}</nowiki></code> &rarr; {{#invoke:redirect|main|Red link example}} Note: [[WP:AFC]] and [[WP:AFD]] are both redirects, but [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion]] is not, and [[Red link example]] does not exist. In addition, as a demonstration of redlinks on [[Wikipedia:Red link]], the final page is permanently protected from non-administrator creation. === LuaMain === If you want to use the main function from another Lua module, you may want to use the luaMain function. This provides the same functionality as the main function, but doesn't require that a frame object be available. To use this, first load the module. <syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> local mRedirect = require('Module:Redirect') </syntaxhighlight> Then use the function with the following syntax: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> mRedirect.luaMain(rname, bracket) </syntaxhighlight> <var>rname</var> is the name of the redirect page, and if <var>bracket</var> is anything but false or nil, the module will produce a link rather than just a page name. == IsRedirect == The isRedirect function is used from wiki pages to find out if a given page is a redirect or not. If the page is a redirect, the function returns "yes", and if not the output is blank.

But there is probably a problem, as 'kulonda kwa bonna mu Uganda okwa 2021' seems to translate to '<u>the</u> 2021 general elections in Uganda', but the correct name for the article in Luanda should be [[2021 Akalulu ka Uganda]] ? (I really don't know, I translated with Google) Anyway, there is a problem, because the template should be <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>ill|'''<u>2021 Akalulu ka Uganda|lt='''</u>kulonda kwa bonna mu Uganda okwa 2021|en|2021 Ugandan general election}}</code>. The first parameter is the name of the linked article, <code>lt</code> (= link text) is the text displayed, a bit like in <code><nowiki>[[2021 Akalulu ka Uganda|kulonda kwa bonna mu Uganda okwa 2021]]</nowiki></code>. '''In short, if I don't know the name of the article that will be created, I cannot make these replacements.''' The only ones that can be fully automated without risk are when the article name on lgwiki is the same (mostly people, e.g. <code><nowiki>[[:fr:Amini Cishugi|Amini Cishugi]]</nowiki></code> that will become <code><nowiki>{{ill|Amini Cishugi|fr}}</nowiki></code> => {{ill|Amini Cishugi|fr}}).

For example, instead of: :{{demo inline|<nowiki>[[Albert Einstein#Scientific career]]</nowiki>}} ...you can write: :{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|Albert Einstein|Scientific career}}</nowiki>}} ...or :{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|Albert Einstein#Scientific career}}</nowiki>}} == Usage == This template is appropriate for use in [[Wikipedia:Hatnote|hatnotes]] and [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout#"See also" section|See also]] sections, or to reference sections within the same article. When using in article body text, consider whether an overt link to a specific section in another article may be confusing to readers who cannot follow links, such as those viewing a printed version of the material (see [[WP:PRINTWORTHY]]), or a version republished without links (see [[WP:LINKSTYLE]]). === Syntax (overview) === * {{tnull|section link|''Article''|''Section''}} or {{tnull|section link|''Article''#''Section''}}, link to section of other article. ** Example: {{section link|Albert Einstein|Scientific career}} * {{tnull|section link|''Article''|''Section''|nopage{{=}}y}} or {{tnull|section link|''Article''#''Section''|nopage{{=}}y}}, link to section of other article, only displaying the section's title ** Example: {{section link|Albert Einstein|Scientific career|nopage=y}} * {{tnull|section link{{!}}{{!}}''Section''}} or {{tnull|section link|#''Section''}}, for usage within the same page, supply an empty first parameter ** Example: {{section link||Scientific career}} === Multiple sections === This template can generate consecutive links to several sections of the same page and mark them with §§ ([[Section_sign#Use|as is convention]]). You can write: :{{demo|<nowiki>{{section link|History of IBM|1880s–1924: The origin of IBM|1969: Antitrust, the unbundling of software and services|1993–present: IBM's near disaster and rebirth}}</nowiki>}} ...or: :{{demo|<nowiki>{{section link|History of IBM#1880s–1924: The origin of IBM|1969: Antitrust, the unbundling of software and services|1993–present: IBM's near disaster and rebirth}}</nowiki>}} ===Suppressing page name=== Sometimes the page name needs not to appear (e.g. to avoid redundancy and wordiness). For the page on which the template is used, not specifying a page name creates a section link only. The following: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">{{Section link||Suppressing page name}}</syntaxhighlight> ...is the equivalent of: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">[[#Suppressing page name|§&nbsp;Suppressing page name]]</syntaxhighlight> ...and renders as: :{{section link||Suppressing page name}} Use {{para|nopage|y}} for the same visual effect. When discussing an article from its talk page, {{tlx|Article link}}—or its alias, {{tlx|alink}}—is preferable to the longer {{tlc|Section link|{<nowiki/>{[[Help:Magic_words#Variables|ARTICLEPAGENAME]]}<nowiki/>}|Section|4=nopage=y}}. Comparison of displayed results: *{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|WP:Manual of Style|Quotations}}</nowiki>}} *{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|WP:Manual of Style|Quotations|nopage=y}}</nowiki>}} *{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|WP:Manual of Style|Quotations|Quotation marks|Commas}}</nowiki>}} *{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|WP:Manual of Style|Quotations|Quotation marks|Commas|nopage=y}}</nowiki>}} === Styling page name === For titles of films and short stories, [[MOS:DABPIPING|always]] present the core part of the page's name (without any parenthetic disambiguation) in italics, quotation marks, or some other markup (per [[MOS:TITLES]]). The {{para|display}} parameter can be used for this purpose: *{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|The Last Temptation of Christ (film)|General controversy|display=''The Last Temptation of Christ'' (film)}}</nowiki>}} ==== Title equivalence check ==== Unlike regular piped links, the display parameter is checked to see if it is equivalent of the actual link after formatting has been removed. That is, the following renders an error: *{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|The Last Temptation of Christ (film)|General controversy|display=A completely different article}}</nowiki>}} This is to prevent this template from being used to create misleading links. === Underscores === It is common practice to copy article and section name from the browser's address bar. When doing that, the article and section names may contain underscores: :<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>Albert_Einstein#Scientific_career</syntaxhighlight> This template automatically replaces the underscores with space characters: :{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|Albert_Einstein#Scientific_career}}</nowiki>}} There are articles that have underscores (see {{cl|Articles with underscores in the title}}). To retain the underscores in the rendered output, use {{para|keep-underscores|yes}}: :article and section copied from browser address bar: ::<code>Dual_EC_DRBG#Timeline_of_Dual_EC_DRBG</code> :manual removal of extraneous underscores: ::<code>Dual_EC_DRBG#Timeline of Dual_EC_DRBG</code> :{{demo inline|<nowiki>{{section link|Dual_EC_DRBG#Timeline of Dual_EC_DRBG|keep-underscores=yes}}</nowiki>}} ==TemplateData== {{TemplateDataHeader}} <templatedata> { "description": "This template is used to generate a link to a certain section of a local wiki page and render an appropriate section mark (§).

If the module is unable to add hAudio microformat (and the input does not contain the microformat) then the page will be included in {{clc|Duration without hAudio microformat}}. == Usage == This template should normally be called through {{tl|Duration}}, and used as <code>{{((}}#invoke:Duration{{!}}main{{!}}duration=<var>duration</var>{{))}}</code> when included in other templates. Valid parameters are numbered parameters 1, 2 and 3, and unnumbered parameters {{para|h}}, {{para|m}}, {{para|s}} and {{para|duration}}. {{para|duration}} should not be used in {{tl|Duration}}, as {{para|1}} can provide the same function. The two triplets of parameters accept numbers as inputs (hours, minutes, seconds respectively). Only {{para|3}} and {{para|s}} can contain decimals; the others must be integers. The seconds value must not exceed 60, and the minutes value must not exceed 60 if there is an hours value. If the inputs are not recognized as numbers, an error message is returned. {{para|1}} and {{para|duration}} accept strings. If the string contains a microformat then the string will be returned without modification. Otherwise, the module will attempt to add an hAudio microformat to the first unformatted duration found. If the string contains more than one duration, only the first one will have a microformat added.

'''This template should only be used internally in other templates.''' For formatting dates in articles, see Wikipedia's [[MOS:DATEFORMAT|guidelines for formatting dates]] or an [[Wikipedia:Overview of date formatting guidelines|overview of date formatting guidelines]]. If you want sortable dates for a table, use {{tl|date table sorting}} instead. ===Syntax=== This template takes up to two parameters, both of which are optional: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>date|</code><span style="color:gray;">''<date to be formatted>''</span>|<span style="color:gray;">''<date formatting style>''</span><code><nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> * '''''<date to be formatted>''''' is an (optional) date to be formatted. ** If no date is specified, the template emits the current date.<br />For example, {{nowrap|<code><nowiki>{{date}}</nowiki></code>}} produces {{date}}. To avoid emitting the current date if none is input, use [[Template:fdate]]. ** If a date is provided, but is not recognized as one, the text is just returned ''as is''. Most dates will however be recognized as such, including all the formats typically used on Wikipedia. Numerous variations thereof are also supported, including abbreviated or lower-case month names; ordinal "st", "nd", "rd", "th"; extraneous white space; missing comma, etc. ** '''Notes''': *** Some dates are converted even if they are not real dates, and some dates are not converted even though they are real dates. See [[#Known issues|known issues]] below. *** Only dates within the range {{date|January 1, 1000}} and {{date|December 31, 9999}} are supported. Dates with two-digit years will have the years from 1970 to 2069. Other dates outside the range 1000–9999 will be treated as if the second parameter were "none". *** when using month numbers in numeric, the valid formats are MM/DD/YYYY, DD-MM-YYYY, DD.MM.YYYY, YYYY/MM/DD, YYYY-MM-DD, MM/DD/YY, YY-MM-DD, DD.MM.YY, the invalid formats are DD/MM/YYYY, MM-DD-YYYY, MM.DD.YY, YYYY.MM.DD, MM.DD.YYYY, DD-MM-YY, YY/MM/DD, DD/MM/YY, YY.MM.DD * '''''<date formatting style>''''' controls the date format in which the result is to be emitted. Recognized values for the second parameter are: *** '''<code>DMY{{0}}</code>''' gives ''d mmmm yyyy'' (e.g. ''{{date|2007-05-31|DMY}}''). This is the default format. *** '''<code>MDY{{0}}</code>''' gives ''mmmm d, yyyy'' (e.g. ''{{date|2007-05-31|MDY}}'') *** '''<code>YMD{{0}}</code>''' gives ''yyyy mmmm d'' (e.g. ''{{date|2007-05-31|YMD}}'') *** '''<code>ISO{{0}}</code>''' gives an [[WP:ISO 8601|ISO 8601]] style ''yyyy-mm-dd'' (e.g. ''{{date|2007-05-31|ISO}}'') *** '''<code>none</code>''' applies no formatting whatsoever ** If a date to be formatted is provided but no style is specified, the template emits a date in "d month yyyy" format, as it appears (for example) on discussion pages. When no date is specified, then the current date is emitted with no year, either in "d&nbsp;month" format for formatting style <code>DMY</code>, or in "month&nbsp;d" format for formatting styles <code>MDY</code>, <code>YMD</code> and <code>ISO</code>. ** '''Notes''': *** Only <code>DMY</code>/<code>lDMY</code> and <code>MDY</code>/<code>lMDY</code> are in accordance with the English language Wikipedia's [[MOS:DATE#Full date formatting|Manual of Style]]. The use of <code>ISO</code>/<code>lISO</code> ([[WP:ISO 8601|ISO 8601]]) format ''within article prose'' is expressly discouraged by the Manual of Style; this format should only be used in tables, lists, or references. *** Wikipedia caches the current version of pages, and the template may display the date that the page was cached, rather than the current date. ===Examples=== ====With valid input==== {| class="wikitable" !

As a result, some date-like values that are not actually valid dates get converted anyway. These include... ** all dates with zero day-of-the-month. Such a "zero-th" day of a month gets converted into the last day of the previous month.<div>For example, <code><nowiki>{{date|June 0, 2006}}</nowiki></code> results in <code>{{date|June 0, 2006}}</code>.</div><div>Similarly, <code><nowiki>{{date|0 January 2006}}</nowiki></code> becomes <code>{{date|0 January 2006}}</code>.</div> ** all dates with day-number values that exceed the number of days in the specified month cause the date to be incremented into the next month.<div>For example, <code><nowiki>{{date|31 November 2008}}</nowiki></code> results in <code>{{date|31 November 2008}}</code>, since November has only 30 days.</div><div>Similarly, <code><nowiki>{{date|February 29, 2007}}</nowiki></code> results in <code>{{date|February 29, 2007}}</code>, since 2007 was not a leap year.</div><div><small>Note: Due to a parser peculiarity in the PHP library, 'December 32' and '32 December' are treated differently, and the latter results in an error (which causes this template to emit it unchanged), and only the former "overflows" into the next month.</small></div> '''Non-Gregorian dates are treated as Gregorian''' * The PHP library that this template ultimately depends on assumes that all dates, irrespective of context, are [[Gregorian calendar]] dates. Consequently: ** some dates that would be valid in a non-Gregorian context are treated as out-of-range dates and converted to the next-best in-range values. For example, <code><nowiki>{{date|30 February 1712}}</nowiki></code> results in <code>{{date|30 February 1712}}</code> because – even though 30 February 1712 is a valid date in the Swedish calendar – February 1712 had only 29 days in the Gregorian calendar. ** ten dates are not reformatted. These are 29 February and 1 March of the years 1000, 1100, 1300, 1400, 1500. The cause of this is the same as that of the Swedish 30 February 1712. ** some dates that would not be valid in some contexts are converted normally. For example, 29 February 1912 or 1 February 1918 are not valid in a Russian context, but perfectly valid in the Gregorian one. '''ISO 8601 format not suitable for years before 1583''' *The ISO 8601 standard requires mutual agreement between those using the format to use years earlier than 1583. Since no agreement has been obtained from our readers, that format should not be used for such years, nor for any date not in the Gregorian calendar. '''Output provided for ISO dates when year is missing''' *The current 2004 version of ISO 8601 does not permit omitting the year, but this template will produce a supposedly ISO output when the year is missing. '''Does not provide Microformats''' * [[hCalendar]] and [[hCard]] [[microformat]]s have various date properties, which are not emitted by this template. Use {{Tl|Start date}}, {{Tl|End date}}, {{Tl|Birth date}} or one of their variants, as necessary, in infoboxes which allow microformat-compatible date templates. ===See also=== {{Date and time templates}} <includeonly>{{basepage subpage| <!-- Categories below this line; interwikis at Wikidata --> [[Category:Date conversion templates]] [[Category:Date-computing templates]] [[Category:ISO date templates]] }}</includeonly> <templatedata> { "params": { "1": { "label": "date", "description": "Date to be formatted", "example": "Jan 1, 2007", "type": "date", "suggested": true }, "2": { "label": "format", "description": "Controls the date format for the result", "example": "MDY", "type": "string", "suggested": true, "default": "DMY" } }, "description": "Converts dates into a format used on Wikipedia" } </templatedata> 57pa6ravb25migoym2qryvrl20gbijt 50644 50643 2026-05-09T22:59:54Z SyntaxTerror 11090 50644 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Documentation subpage}} <!-- Place categories where indicated at the bottom of this page and interwikis at Wikidata --> {{for|dates formatted with the #time parser function|mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions#.23time}} {{High-use| 40880 }} {{warning|text='''This template should only be used internally within other templates.'''}} ===Description=== This template converts a date to one of the standard date formats used on the English Wikipedia. '''This template should only be used internally in other templates.''' For formatting dates in articles, see Wikipedia's [[:en:MOS:DATEFORMAT|guidelines for formatting dates]] or an [[Wikipedia:Overview of date formatting guidelines|overview of date formatting guidelines]]. If you want sortable dates for a table, use {{tl|date table sorting}} instead. ===Syntax=== This template takes up to two parameters, both of which are optional: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>date|</code><span style="color:gray;">''<date to be formatted>''</span>|<span style="color:gray;">''<date formatting style>''</span><code><nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> * '''''<date to be formatted>''''' is an (optional) date to be formatted. ** If no date is specified, the template emits the current date.<br />For example, {{nowrap|<code><nowiki>{{date}}</nowiki></code>}} produces {{date}}. To avoid emitting the current date if none is input, use [[Template:fdate]]. ** If a date is provided, but is not recognized as one, the text is just returned ''as is''. Most dates will however be recognized as such, including all the formats typically used on Wikipedia. Numerous variations thereof are also supported, including abbreviated or lower-case month names; ordinal "st", "nd", "rd", "th"; extraneous white space; missing comma, etc. ** '''Notes''': *** Some dates are converted even if they are not real dates, and some dates are not converted even though they are real dates. See [[#Known issues|known issues]] below. *** Only dates within the range {{date|January 1, 1000}} and {{date|December 31, 9999}} are supported. Dates with two-digit years will have the years from 1970 to 2069. Other dates outside the range 1000–9999 will be treated as if the second parameter were "none". *** when using month numbers in numeric, the valid formats are MM/DD/YYYY, DD-MM-YYYY, DD.MM.YYYY, YYYY/MM/DD, YYYY-MM-DD, MM/DD/YY, YY-MM-DD, DD.MM.YY, the invalid formats are DD/MM/YYYY, MM-DD-YYYY, MM.DD.YY, YYYY.MM.DD, MM.DD.YYYY, DD-MM-YY, YY/MM/DD, DD/MM/YY, YY.MM.DD * '''''<date formatting style>''''' controls the date format in which the result is to be emitted. Recognized values for the second parameter are: *** '''<code>DMY{{0}}</code>''' gives ''d mmmm yyyy'' (e.g. ''{{date|2007-05-31|DMY}}''). This is the default format. *** '''<code>MDY{{0}}</code>''' gives ''mmmm d, yyyy'' (e.g. ''{{date|2007-05-31|MDY}}'') *** '''<code>YMD{{0}}</code>''' gives ''yyyy mmmm d'' (e.g. ''{{date|2007-05-31|YMD}}'') *** '''<code>ISO{{0}}</code>''' gives an [[WP:ISO 8601|ISO 8601]] style ''yyyy-mm-dd'' (e.g. ''{{date|2007-05-31|ISO}}'') *** '''<code>none</code>''' applies no formatting whatsoever ** If a date to be formatted is provided but no style is specified, the template emits a date in "d month yyyy" format, as it appears (for example) on discussion pages. When no date is specified, then the current date is emitted with no year, either in "d&nbsp;month" format for formatting style <code>DMY</code>, or in "month&nbsp;d" format for formatting styles <code>MDY</code>, <code>YMD</code> and <code>ISO</code>. ** '''Notes''': *** Only <code>DMY</code>/<code>lDMY</code> and <code>MDY</code>/<code>lMDY</code> are in accordance with the English language Wikipedia's [[:en:MOS:DATE#Full date formatting|Manual of Style]]. The use of <code>ISO</code>/<code>lISO</code> ([[WP:ISO 8601|ISO 8601]]) format ''within article prose'' is expressly discouraged by the Manual of Style; this format should only be used in tables, lists, or references. *** Wikipedia caches the current version of pages, and the template may display the date that the page was cached, rather than the current date. ===Examples=== ====With valid input==== {| class="wikitable" !

As a result, some date-like values that are not actually valid dates get converted anyway. These include... ** all dates with zero day-of-the-month. Such a "zero-th" day of a month gets converted into the last day of the previous month.<div>For example, <code><nowiki>{{date|June 0, 2006}}</nowiki></code> results in <code>{{date|June 0, 2006}}</code>.</div><div>Similarly, <code><nowiki>{{date|0 January 2006}}</nowiki></code> becomes <code>{{date|0 January 2006}}</code>.</div> ** all dates with day-number values that exceed the number of days in the specified month cause the date to be incremented into the next month.<div>For example, <code><nowiki>{{date|31 November 2008}}</nowiki></code> results in <code>{{date|31 November 2008}}</code>, since November has only 30 days.</div><div>Similarly, <code><nowiki>{{date|February 29, 2007}}</nowiki></code> results in <code>{{date|February 29, 2007}}</code>, since 2007 was not a leap year.</div><div><small>Note: Due to a parser peculiarity in the PHP library, 'December 32' and '32 December' are treated differently, and the latter results in an error (which causes this template to emit it unchanged), and only the former "overflows" into the next month.</small></div> '''Non-Gregorian dates are treated as Gregorian''' * The PHP library that this template ultimately depends on assumes that all dates, irrespective of context, are [[Gregorian calendar]] dates. Consequently: ** some dates that would be valid in a non-Gregorian context are treated as out-of-range dates and converted to the next-best in-range values. For example, <code><nowiki>{{date|30 February 1712}}</nowiki></code> results in <code>{{date|30 February 1712}}</code> because – even though 30 February 1712 is a valid date in the Swedish calendar – February 1712 had only 29 days in the Gregorian calendar. ** ten dates are not reformatted. These are 29 February and 1 March of the years 1000, 1100, 1300, 1400, 1500. The cause of this is the same as that of the Swedish 30 February 1712. ** some dates that would not be valid in some contexts are converted normally. For example, 29 February 1912 or 1 February 1918 are not valid in a Russian context, but perfectly valid in the Gregorian one. '''ISO 8601 format not suitable for years before 1583''' *The ISO 8601 standard requires mutual agreement between those using the format to use years earlier than 1583. Since no agreement has been obtained from our readers, that format should not be used for such years, nor for any date not in the Gregorian calendar. '''Output provided for ISO dates when year is missing''' *The current 2004 version of ISO 8601 does not permit omitting the year, but this template will produce a supposedly ISO output when the year is missing. '''Does not provide Microformats''' * [[hCalendar]] and [[hCard]] [[microformat]]s have various date properties, which are not emitted by this template. Use {{Tl|Start date}}, {{Tl|End date}}, {{Tl|Birth date}} or one of their variants, as necessary, in infoboxes which allow microformat-compatible date templates. ===See also=== {{Date and time
