Hello all,
The Wikimedia Foundation's Community health initiative
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_health_initiative> plans to
design and build a new user reporting system to make it easier for people
experiencing harassment and other forms of abuse to provide accurate
information to the appropriate channel for action to be taken.
The success of this project depends on collecting ideas and feedback from
people in a variety of different roles in the Wikimedia movement. To this
end, there will be a multi-phased consultation where you can participate in
ways that you are most comfortable.
At this stage the primary objective is to alert interested parties that
this new feature(s) will be built starting in the first quarter of the next
fiscal year (July 2019.)
Prior to July 2019, there needs to be a rough agreement with contributors
across multiple languages of Wikimedia projects about the direction the
project will take.
Please visit the consultation page
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_health_initiative/User_reporting_…>
to learn more about the process, ask questions or offer feedback. You can sign
up to be be a liaison for you community
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_health_initiative/User_reporting_…>,
join a focus group, or translate pages and messages.
Please share this message with other people who you think would be
interested. I'm looking forward to working together on this important
project.
Warm regards,
Sydney

project;
WACN Part - 1: The Billboards Initiative will be engaging new readers to
Maithili & Nepali Wikipedia through both offline and online platforms.

whereas online platform cover sharing the project via social media sites to
raise Wikipedia awareness among Maithili and Nepali Communities. This
project is focusing to promote two different languages of Wikipedia
simultaneously in two different cities of Nepal.

Biratnagar and install billboards (static/digital) there to raise Wikipedia
awareness among the Maithili & Nepali Communities. In the meantime, we will

Hello,
Could anyone please have a look at what's going on with the Wikimedia
India blog? There has been spam for dating sites there for several
days (if not weeks).
This is not exactly obvious when you look at the main page¹, except if
you scroll down a bit, but “ctrl+f dating” in the rss feed², or in the
planet rss feed³ and you'll see it.
Thanks and best regards,
