Popular pages tool update

As of January, the popular pages tool has moved from the Toolserver to Wikimedia Tool Labs. The code has changed significantly from the Toolserver version, but users should notice few differences. Please take a moment to look over your project's list for any anomalies, such as pages that you expect to see that are missing or pages that seem to have more views than expected. Note that unlike other tools, this tool aggregates all views from redirects, which means it will typically have higher numbers. (For January 2014 specifically, 35 hours of data is missing from the WMF data, which was approximated from other dates. For most articles, this should yield a more accurate number. However, a few articles, like ones featured on the Main Page, may be off).

Web tools, to replace the ones at tools:~alexz/pop, will become available over the next few weeks at toollabs:popularpages. All of the historical data (back to July 2009 for some projects) has been copied over. The tool to view historical data is currently partially available (assessment data and a few projects may not be available at the moment). The tool to add new projects to the bot's list is also available now (editing the configuration of current projects coming soon). Unlike the previous tool, all changes will be effective immediately. OAuth is used to authenticate users, allowing only regular users to make changes to prevent abuse. A visible history of configuration additions and changes is coming soon. Once tools become fully available, their toolserver versions will redirect to Labs.

If you have any questions, want to report any bugs, or there are any features you would like to see that aren't currently available on the Toolserver tools, see the updated FAQ or contact me on my talk page. Mr.Z-bot (talk) (for Mr.Z-man) 05:27, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

Leaflet for Wikiproject Socialism at Wikimania 2014

Hi all,

My name is Adi Khajuria and I am helping out with Wikimania 2014 in London.

One of our initiatives is to create leaflets to increase the discoverability of various wikimedia projects, and showcase the breadth of activity within wikimedia. Any kind of project can have a physical paper leaflet designed - for free - as a tool to help recruit new contributors. These leaflets will be printed at Wikimania 2014, and the designs can be re-used in the future at other events and locations.

This is particularly aimed at highlighting less discoverable but successful projects, e.g:

• Active Wikiprojects: Wikiproject Medicine, WikiProject Video Games, Wikiproject Film

• Tech projects/Tools, which may be looking for either users or developers.

• Less known major projects: Wikinews, Wikidata, Wikivoyage, etc.

• Wiki Loves Parliaments, Wiki Loves Monuments, Wiki Loves ____

• Wikimedia thematic organisations, Wikiwomen’s Collaborative, The Signpost

The deadline for submissions is 1st July 2014

For more information or to sign up for one for your project, go to:

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:48, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject X is live!

Hello everyone!

You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

Following orders by the Creators do fight for true Earth social revolution

Information about reptilian shape-shifters

Tell this to the whole world:

23 May, 2015 T. Tatsmaki (Japan)

Following orders by the Creators do fight for true Earth social revolution

 Socialism of Marxism was one of reformist forms within the framework of the capitalist system's

plutocratic slave rule, since socialism was the State-capitalist system of whole one rule, like Soviet Union, China.etc. have shown. Why?

 Because Karl Marx was a son of a German advocate which was a shapeshifter of Reptilian-humanoid

of the Lizard being the invader-ruler of the Earth from ancient times, and Karl's wife was Reptilian's shapeshifter. F.Engels was a shapeshifter of Reptilian-humanoid, just as V.I. Lenin, I.V.Stalin, N.S. Khrushchev, Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, etc.They worked to preserve the capitalist system's plutocratic slave rule by Reptilian-humanoids as the State-capitalism.

 Flying disks and space crafts coming from the Galaxy Federation of advanced civilization planets,

where are no evil monetary system's tyranny, are implying the future of the Earth. Thus, In London British workers stated a demonstration under a banner of "Abolish Money!" against G8 summit. They became the avant-garde of the liberation movement of the Earth and Eartians.

 According to a notice from the Creators of the Space blocks control world, the New American

People's Revolution is near and wins. But dictators of the USA, i.e. Rockefellers are trying to distort the new US revolution to fake socialism of the Soviet Union type.

 Do struggle for transition to the new society of everything gratuitous services in all areas of

social life, following the orders of the Creators.

 As I wrote such articles many times in various blogs, CIA and JCIA dispatched assassination teams

to me even four times. But they were annihilated by the Creators as rebellion criminals and they have been redused to elementary particles. Such rebellion crime against the Creators should not be repeated. http://tatsmaki.blogspot.jp (English version) http://tatsmaki.blog.ru (Russian version) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Susumu Maeda (talk • contribs) 22:02, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
