So, if you've not been following along on wikivoyage-l (
https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikivoyage-l ), you
should know that Wikivoyage is now hosted on WMF servers. :) We're
currently in "beta", as there's still lots of smaller and larger
issues to work through, including transferring images to Commons or
local wikis as appropriate. But now's a great time to get involved if
you want to help fix things. These are the languages that are live
now:
httsp://
en.wikivoyage.org/
https://de.wikivoyage.org/
https://ru.wikivoyage.org/
https://nl.wikivoyage.org/
https://it.wikivoyage.org/
https://sv.wikivoyage.org/
But, any other language code should gracefully redict you to Wikimedia
Incubator, where you can easily get started to prove viability of a
new language. :-)
Like I said: Lots of things are still wonky. If you notice something
you can't fix, please report it on Bugzilla and add it as a blocker
for the tracking bug here:
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41184
While we're not done yet, I'd like to take this chance to thank
everyone who's been part of the process so far:
* the existing communities for being awesome in supporting this migration :-)
* Wikivoyage e.V. and especially Hans (for being our main tech contact
managing the DB transfers), Stefan (for handling all the
organizational fun), and Roland (for technical support and review).
* the WMF technical launch team: Chris Steipp, Daniel Zahn, Matthias
Mullie, Sam Reed + everyone who chipped in with help and support.
* the WMF legal and community advocacy team: Geoff Brigham, Kelly Kay,
Philippe Beaudette, and everyone else who helped.
* anyone else I've forgotten to name :-)
All the best,
