Call for votes! Steward elections 2012
by Tanvir Rahman 08 Feb '12

08 Feb '12

Hello everyone, I am pleased to announce the beginning of the voting of steward elections 2012 [1]. Eligible voters are now encouraged to give their valuable votes to elect new stewards this year. To find out more about voter eligibility, please take a look on our guidelines page. [2] Vote page will remain open to vote until February 27 2012, 23:59 (UTC). This year, we have made some modifications so it will be easier for voters to vote compared to the last years. You just have to follow the following steps. - Click on the big gray vote button on the vote page, a box will appear; - Select your vote (yes/no/neutral), and write your comments (if you have any) in the comment box; - And click "vote" on that box and it will save your vote automatically. Additionally, we are using template and bot so it will be easy to check the votes and verify the eligible ones. This year, we are also arranging the confirmation of existing stewards [3], so you are also welcome to give your valuable comments/feedback about their works. Confirmations are a good opportunity to check if we are still happy with our current stewards. So please speak your voice there. if you have any queries related to anything about to the election, you can ask us on the talk page [4]. You are also free to poke us on IRC channel #wikimedia-stewards-elections. We hope you will participate as soon as possible to speak your opinion and make this year's election a successful one (as you did in past). Please feel free to forward this e-mail to any other lists if you think it will be useful. :-) Regards, Tanvir Rahman Wikitanvir on Wikimedia (On behalf of the Election Committee.)

SOPA protest - Bengali Wikipedia placed a banner, what about other Indic language wikis?
by Tanvir Rahman 18 Jan '12

18 Jan '12

Hello everyone, Just to let you know that Bengali Wikipedia [1] has placed a banner on their site notice protesting SOPA and PIPA. Maybe other Indic language Wikipedias can take similar initiatives or maybe they have taken one already? If so, share with us! In the mean time, I have an translation request for you. Maybe you have read Sue's letter [2] to the community about the blackout. I invite you all to translate that letter in your language. Since we have little time (less than 17 hours), we need be prompt. See the translation request on Meta-Wiki [3] and start your translation. Get yourself up and let your people know in your language! Regards, Tanvir Rahman Wikitanvir on Wikimedia [1] bn.wikipedia.org [2] http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/English_Wikipedia_anti-SOPA_blackout [3] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Translation_requests/WMF/English_Wikipedia_…

নিশ্চয় বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ায় এর কোনো প্রভাব পড়েনি, তা না হলে আমরাও হয়তো আমাদের সকল কার্যক্রম বন্ধ রাখতাম। তবে আমি এমন উদ্যোগের তীব্র নিন্দা করছি, কারণ এমন আইন পাস হলে উইকিপিডিয়ার এই মহান উদ্যোগের কাজে ব্যাঘাত ঘটবে। এর ফলে আমরা অনেক কিছু সহজ ভাবে জানা থেকে বঞ্চিত হব। ধন্যবাদান্তে এস এম হেমায়েত হোসেন --- On Mon, 1/16/12, Tanvir Rahman <wikitanvir(a)gmail.com> wrote: From: Tanvir Rahman <wikitanvir(a)gmail.com> Subject: [Wikimedia-BD] ব্ল্যাকআউটে যাচ্ছে ইংরেজি উইকিপিডিয়া To: "Wikimedia BD List" <wikimedia-bd(a)lists.wikimedia.org>, "Wikipedia BN List" <wikipedia-bn(a)lists.wikimedia.org>, "Wikimedians in and from West Bengal, India" <wikimedia-in-wb(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Date: Monday, January 16, 2012, 11:33 PM Discussion list for Bangladeshi Wikimedians (wikimedia-bd(a)lists.wikimedia.org) is not on your Guest List | Approve sender | Approve domain
