Support request with team editing experiment project[edit]

Dear tech ambassadors, instead of spamming the Village Pump of each Wikipedia about my tiny project proposal for researching team editing (see here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Research_team_editing), I have decided to leave to your own discretion if the matter is relevant enough to inform a wider audience already. I would appreciate if you could appraise if the Wikipedia community you are more familiar with could have interest in testing group editing "on their own grounds" and with their own guidance. In a nutshell: it consists in editing pages as a group instead of as an individual. This social experiment might involve redefining some aspects of the workflow we are all used to, with the hope of creating a more friendly and collaborative environment since editing under a group umbrella creates less social exposure than traditional "individual editing". I send you this message also as a proof that the Inspire Campaign is already gearing up. As said I would appreciate of *you* just a comment on the talk page/endorsement of my project noting your general perception about the idea. Nothing else. Your contribution helps to shape the future! (which I hope it will be very bright, with colors, and Wikipedia everywhere) Regards from User:Micru on meta.

ArbCom Elections 2016: Voting now open![edit]

Scale of justice 2.svgHello, The Anome.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Your block of Prathamndsl[edit]

I don't know if it affects your decision, but the ANI case was misrepresented. Prathamndsl may have added a SPAM link contrary to the warning, but he immediately reverted it again, something that the OP conveniently neglected to mention. Good faith dictates that in the absence of evidence to the contrary, he reverted it as an acceptance that it was wrong to add it. TheVicarsCat (talk) 17:03, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

Did you know?

Did you know that you can use the visual editor on a mobile device?

Screenshot showing the location of the pencil icon

Tap on the pencil icon to start editing. The page will probably open in the wikitext editor.

You will see another pencil icon in the toolbar. Tap on that pencil icon to the switch between visual editing and wikitext editing.

Remember to publish your changes when you're done.

You can read and help translate the user guide, which has more information about how to use the visual editor.

Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has wrapped up most of their work on the 2017 wikitext editor and the visual diff tool. The team has begun investigating the needs of editors who use mobile devices. Their work board is available in Phabricator. Their current priorities are fixing bugs and improving mobile editing.

Recent changes[edit]

Let's work together[edit]

  • The Editing team wants to improve visual editing on the mobile website. Please read their ideas and tell the team what you think would help editors who use the mobile site.
  • The Community Wishlist Survey begins next week.

Ústredňa Židov[edit]

Hi, and thank you for creating this article. I was wondering if you had noticed that there was already a draft at Draft:Ústredňa Židov? I had been waiting to publish it until I got ahold of Ivan Kamenec's book and could make the article more complete. Catrìona (talk) 10:50, 9 November 2018 (UTC)

@Catriona: No, I hadn't seen your draft: it looks excellent! Since you can always improve it later, I don't think you need wait before publishing it; to that end, I've merged it into the mainspace article. -- The Anome (talk) 17:16, 9 November 2018 (UTC)
