Anthere (anthere9(a)yahoo.com) [050601 20:24]:
I think there are enough french readers of this list
and enough french participants on meta, to know about this future feature (hard to say
this aloud... :-)) ... and to make the information dip at the right places... though I do
not remember having it seen discussed in french anywhere... well.
This morning, I put the [[en validation feature]] page a bit in the light on the
"hot news" on meta to help a bit it raise interest. But what I am confused about
why are there not two different pages for german and english speaking wikipedias ? Will
the same "frame" work for both languages ?
I would assume so. Although de: might want to take questions directly from
the quality drive. Mathias Schindler started a page for de: after
80.134.244.232 started one for en:.
It would be good if someone who knows both languages could copy suitable
suggestions between the two pages.
In any cases, the topic of the thread is about making
a press release for the 2M, not a press release for the article validation system.
Separate press releases might be an idea. The 2M is a good opportunity to
push the tiny Wikipedias. The article rating system one can mention de:
before en: and mention the success of the de: DVD and the usable quality it
must have had for that to happen ;-)
The 2M would be of interest to many languages, if not
all languages.
The article validation system, if it deserves a press release, would not be interesting
all languages by far, because some languages are currently still in the process of trying
to have *content*.
Yes. It's for applying to a maturing Wikipedia, to select from it and to
try to make it better.
