CirrusSearch, new search system on Wikipedia
by Nasir Khan 23 Oct '13

23 Oct '13

Hi, Wikimedia developers are working on a new search system named CirrusSearch. >From yesterday this search option is available as in secondary mode. You all are requested to test and provide feedback on this. *Few key improved features, * * CirrusSearch updates the search index in near real time. So You should be able to search for your changes as soon as you make them. * CirrusSearch indexes expanded templates. * Most of the special search syntax is the same. You can read the syntax here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Search/CirrusSearchFeatures *How to test **CirrusSearch * You can get its results by performing a normal search and then added '* &srbackend=CirrusSearch*' to the URL. Follow the example below, Present Search: https://bn.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=বিশেষ%3ASearch&profile=all&searc… CirrusSearch : https://bn.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=বিশেষ%3ASearch&profile=all&searc… *&srbackend=CirrusSearch*<https://bn.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=বিশেষ%3ASearch&profile=all&searc…> If we think that this new search system is performing better that the existing one then we can request to enable this feature as the primary search system. There is a discussion started at the village pump of the Bengali Wikipedia you can comment on there too, https://bn.wikipedia.org/wiki/উইকিপিডিয়া:প্রশাসকদের_আলোচনাসভা#CirrusSearch…<https://bn.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A6%89%E0%A6%87%E0%A6%95%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%AA…> thanks *-- **Nasir Khan Saikat* <http://profiles.google.com/nasir8891> [[user:nasir8891]] www.nasirkhn.com

Hi Tanvir, that's an excellent idea. Banglalink has not yet sent me their draft press release, so I will ask them to work with us to build the story. Can I copy you on the email, or how should I proceed to coordinate with the community there? I have already emailed to Ragib below to set up a call to discuss.

Fwd: Wikipedia Zero launch & request for user stories

It's nice to be part of your discussion list, thank you @Avijit - you are welcome. And just to clarify, Banglalink has held the public announcement while they test the implementation in the public market. I would appreciate it if we could please keep the news under embargo until Banglalink makes their announcement. We don't want to diminish the story and lose out on news coverage. I am happy to connect you to Banglalink's PR team if you would like a scoop. Thanks! @safwan - that's very important news for me, thank you! We were set up and testing with Grameenphone, but I didn't know they launched zero.wikipedia.org publicly. I will reach out to Grameenphone. @ragib - thank you! It would be most helpful to chat via google or skype to brainstorm together. I don't have a preconception, just want to tell the real story. I will email you directly to see if we can set up a call. Thanks! (I was late in joining the mailing list, so pasting Ragib's reply here for reference) Hi Carolynne, That's an awesome news. What type of stories do you want to hear? I've been involved with the bangla wiki project since 2006 and can discuss the overall development and growth of the bangla wikipedia. Let me know how I can help.

Hello, I recently joined WMF to expand Wikipedia Zero and other mobile programs. We just did a quiet launch of Wikipedia Zero with Banglalink, and they are preparing to make an announcement. I would love to write a blog about Wikipedia users in Bangladesh. I'm writing now to let you know about the launch, and also to see if someone in our community would share their story, maybe profile a group, discuss local trends, etc. I'm very open, just want to share the reader perspective on Wikipedia (and free access through Wikipedia Zero). Please let me know if you can help Thank you so much! Carolynne -- Carolynne Schloeder Director Mobile Programs Wikimedia Foundation

প্রিয় সবাই, সামনেই ২০১৪ সাল। বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়া পূর্ণ করতে দশ বছর। নিশ্চয়ই এটা আমাদের সবার জন্য অত্যন্ত আনন্দের এবং গর্বের ব্যাপার। এখন এখানে একটা ব্যাপার আছে। বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ার সূচনা বলা হয় ২০০৪ এর জানুয়ারি মাসে (কারণটা আমি ঠিক জানি না) কিন্তু উইকিপিডিয়াার প্রধান পাতার প্রথম এডিট ১৪ জুন ২০০৪। এক্ষেত্রে জন্মদিন হিসেবে কোনটাকে ধরা ঠিক হবে? কমিউনিটির সবার মতামত - পরামর্শ জানতে চাই। ধন্যবাদ। --- Shabab Mustafa

Fwd: [APC Forum] Konkani Wikipedia climbing up the Indian language ladder

This workshop involved 38 students creating 43 new articles on Konkani Wikipedia, which is incubation. We hope that these efforts will contribute towards bringing this seven-year-old project out of incubation into a live Wikipedia project. Guest post by Subhashish Panigrahi, who works with the Access to Knowledge team. A2K works towards the promotion of Wikipedia and its sister projects in India. Recently the CIS- A2K team organised a four-day workshop in collaboration with Goa University for students of MA (Konkani). This workshop involved 38 students creating 43 new articles on Konkani Wikipedia, which is incubation. We hope that these efforts will contribute towards bringing this seven-year-old project out of incubation into a live Wikipedia project. Before a Wikipedia shapes up as a live project, it undergoes an incubation process. A community of volunteers gradually grows to sustain this Wikipedia in incubation with active contributions. The Konkani Wikipedia Incubator started way back in 2006. However, owing to many reasons it could not take off. One of the major reasons has been the usage of multiple scripts. Because of political and religious reasons, Konkani has multiple writing and verbal standards as also multiple scripts. Devanagari is the official script, but Konkani is also written in the Roman script (also known as Romi), the Kannada script (in the Konkani speaking regions of Karnataka, primarily in and around Mangalore), the Malayalam script in Kerala (Kochin region), and in Perso-Arabic script. The most used script for Konkani is Devanagari. Goa University is world's first university to offer a master's programme in the Konkani language, in which the writing standard is in Goan Konkani written in Devanagari. We met with the students and introduced Konkani Wikipedia to them. Four students volunteered to coordinate the workshop. They discussed plans for the workshop and its prerequisites, going through the list of articles on Konkani Wikipedia, writing a unique article by collecting resources before attending the workshop. To our surprise, all of the students including the four coordinators came up with at least two pages of written content before the workshop. Day 1: Intro yourself To start with the first day of the workshop held at Krishnadas Shama State Central Library, Goa we had an “Adjective Name” activity. It was fun to know how people judge themselves with adjectives. I turned out to be Sub-Hashish and Nitika turned out to be Naughty-Nitika! Then we had a discussion about the articles students planned to write. A few of them were not sure if articles on social issues or biographies of a writer could fit into Wikipedia framework. Editing time Article titles were decided, everyone was ready with their homework write ups and books for adding sources. Only four-five of them knew typing in Devanagari. For the first time some of them typed few words and they typed correctly. I could see the glow of triumph after they typed correctly using Transliteration layout. My experience with majority of the Indian language outreach participants had been more or the less the same; most new wikipedians struggle to type. This time we printed some handouts with the layout for typing help. It worked well. Students managed to type albeit with small typographical errors. Game time We had to cut the session for an activity break and invited them to play “Tumi Kashi Asat” (meaning "How do you do?" in Konkani). This is a game I learnt from my colleague Vishnu. To make it more interesting we got it translated to Konkani by our coordinator Supriya. The host has to make some body movements and ask “Tumi Kashi Asat?” and bend forward. The participants have to move their body in the reverse way and answer “Ami bari ashat” (I’m doing well). This replaced the caffeine intake for the four days and kept all of us lively. More editing post lunch: The editing spree went on for rest of the day. Regular doses of small fun activities were served to keep the Goan tides high. To our surprise all of the students created articles; I don’t know if I could judge them as "Stub" or "Start" class articles. For me it was the greatest start for a language to have the asset of these sweet Wikipedians, even as the Konkani Wikipedia has seen many struggles and spent seven years in incubation. Rat and frog game There was surprise for participating Wikipedians: Rat race. Participants sit on chairs and one of them is made to stand in the centre. The rat makes others run and replace each other's seats and one of the participants becomes the 'rat'. This rat race brought back old childhood memories and for a moment everyone forgot their age. At the end of it students sat down to take a deep breath and we taught them some basic Wiki codes (bold, italics, and adding references). To our surprise all of the students had created their first articles by the end of the day. Day 2: Climbing up the ladder This was the day to tell the students about the advanced options and ensure addition of more citations. Citations on Wikipedia are very essential for readers to validate the facts. But bringing this to the students who just had started learning to type in their language a day earlier was not easy. The second day was spent giving small breaks during the editing session for small activities. Running, jumping, and shouting fueled the students to be happy editors and not burdened. We managed to teach them the advanced options for proper Wiki-formatting (Bold, Italics, Heading, and Category), and citations. By the end of the first two days 22 students created 24 articles (about 42 pages of written content). Everyone clapped for their friends. We welcomed them to Konkani Wikipedia community. Day 3: Fresh batch, new start 16 new students from MA course were welcomed. Four student coordinators and one from the first batch of students joined us. The entire day was spent having lots of fun, creating articles and basic know how of Wiki syntax. Half the students in this batch knew how to type using the Devanagari InScript layout. Our first and second day taught us how students ask their fellow students more than they ask us for small help. Thanks to the Fedora Devanagari keyboard layout, it helped us to look and guide the students. All the students created their first articles. John, Supriya and Vaishali (from the first batch) gave final touches to their respective second articles. Day 4: No need to say good bye! This was the day to do two very important things; applaud their contribution on the first day and tell about contribution of their friends, teach about the advanced options and extending support further. Seeing the newspaper coverage about the workshop featuring some of their friends was a delight for our new Wikipedians after two long days. A few of them came forward to share their experience about the workshop and their vision for Konkani language. At the end of four days all of them bid us farewell. It felt like saying bye to good old friends. These were the foundation days and the biggest editing rally Konkani Wikipedia Incubator has seen in the last seven years with this milestone that the students had created. Happy faces of our new found friends is going to be a great piece of memory in this personal journey.

Planning type-a-thon for Bangla Wikisource (Wikisangkalan)
by Belayet Hossain 10 Sep '13

10 Sep '13

Dear Wikimedians, Bangla Wikisource[0], we called it Wikisangkalan is the 2nd largest Wikimedia projects in Bangla. Now there are 5800+ Bangla texts available in Wikisangkalan. You know there are lots of Bangla literatures are available in public domain license and many of them available at web in unicode, pdf, djvu, jpg etc. Wikisource have a nice way to host the digital files like pdf and djvu and digitize them to unicode. But unfortunate, Bangla does not have any good OCR to digitize the texts from pdf or djvu file. Till Bangla got any free/opensource OCR with satisfactory quality, the only way to do the digitization is by human typing. And we need large collaborations at these works. More people we involve in typing more digitize Bangla texts will be available in free at the web for Reader. I am planning a day long offline event at the eatherpad[1] to do the collaborative typing for Wikisangkalan. Where people can learn how to type Bangla and edit Wikisangkalan. And They will type texts from the file for Wikisangkalan. That event helps to improve Wikisource, recruit new Wikisourcers and builds relations in the community. I need your inputs, opinions and feedbacks in planning and execution. If you want to host that event, please let me know. I am happy to help you. Also please spread the words and discuss about it with others. The event may get helps from others.
