Request for translation about new wikitext editing tool
by Whatamidoing (WMF)/Sherry Snyder 12 Dec '16

12 Dec '16

Please translate https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Whatamidoing_(WMF)/New_beta_feature This is a planned announcement about testing the new wikitext mode in Extension:VisualEditor. This tool will let you use the visual editor's toolbar and features (including the automatic citoid service!) while editing raw wikitext. *If you have very little time*, then please consider translating the two-sentence summary, which says: *Summary*: There's a new opt-in Beta Feature of a wikitext mode for the visual editor <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/2017_wikitext_editor>. Please go try it out <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeat…> . I would very much like to have those two sentences translated in as many languages as possible. Thank you for your help. -- -- Sherry Snyder (WhatamIdoing) Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Tvaring links to the local version of an article when it exists
by mathieu stumpf guntz 07 Dec '16

07 Dec '16

how should I prepare a link like [[:en:UTF-8|UTF-8]] with tvar ? The easy way is [[<tvar|link>:en:UTF-8</>|UTF-8]], I guess. But it would be better if the link would lead to the localized wikipedia article if it does exist, but fallback on the original otherwise. Such a behaviour is in fact rather tricky to perform, and I'm little stuck there, trying to misc. combination of "{{#translation:}}" and "Special:MyLanguage/". Maybe some magic keyword jedi master might help here? :)

Asking a few Wikipedias to enable Hovercards [ca, el, ru, hu]
by Chris Koerner 07 Dec '16

07 Dec '16

Greetings, After a series of successful A/B tests of Hovercards we would like to ask the communities who participated in the tests to enable the feature by default. Help translating this message into the local languages would be very helpful. Note: The first few sentences on the linked to page are targeted at specific languages. Please only translate into the language describe. I tried to leave notes in the editing interface as to which language I'm needing. Please reach out if there is confusion. As always, your help is tremendously appreciated. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:CKoerner_(WMF)/Enable_Hovercards Yours, Chris Koerner Community Liaison - Discovery Wikimedia Foundation

05 Dec '16

Hi translators! A first release of a major new feature of the Content Translation extension will be deployed to Wikipedia next week: A template editor. It will give the article translators much more control over how the template adaptation works. There are only a few messages to translate for this. Here's a direct link for translating it in translatewiki.net : https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:Translate?filter=!translated&action=… Thank you! -- Amir Elisha Aharoni · אָמִיר אֱלִישָׁע אַהֲרוֹנִי http://aharoni.wordpress.com ‪“We're living in pieces, I want to live in peace.” – T.

Hello dear translators, The search team at the Foundation would like to run a few tests on the Catalan, Polish, and Italian Wikipedias. We'd like to let the communities know our intent to run these tests, and a translated message for their Village Pump is just the thing to start the conversation.
