Subject: [Wikimania-l] Wikiradio
To: "Wikimania general list (open subscription)"
<wikimania-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Wikiradio is a real-time audio service transmitted via the Internet.
This service offers various stations, covering all genres of music and
even including recordings of Wikipedia articles on different
languages, all of which are available on Wikimedia Commons. Each sound
is chosen by the community to be highlighted as some of the finest
work on Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Commons.
What is Wikiradio?
Rather than listening to several audio files in Wikimedia Commons,
which require clicking "play" one after another on each one, the
wikiradio tools works not as a radio streaming service, but instead as
a synchronized (with UTC time) set of tracks so that everybody can
hear at the same time, simulating a radio.
How I can add my station?[edit]
Create a page in meta with your dayparting with your music list like
[[Wikiradio (tool)/playlist/<my_Station>]]ej: for clasic music station
we have Wikiradio (tool)/playlist/classic
Edit the Template:Wikiradio (tool)/stations and add your station like
{{RadioUrl|<my_station>|<My_station>}},ej, for classic music we have
{{RadioUrl|classic|Classic}}
Ready, now you can listen your music in wikiradio !!
Note: Alternatively, you can archive your dayparting and ask for an
administrator to protect those pages.
How work Wikiradio software?
Wikiradio load javascript pages dynamically from meta pages to make
the dayparting. This is thus in order that the community can choose
the music to be placed in these pages. Please edit the page of the
station when you want hear your music.
Some ideas for stations include the spoken Wikipedia audios, music by
genre and topics like ambient audio. But we can do it better. Hourly,
a signal is heard to warn about o'clock hours, like a real radio :p.
Even better we could add a "You are listening wikiradio, the free
radio" spoken message every half hour, and other stuff.
Each radio station load a dayparting from a wikipage in meta like
"Wikiradio (tool)/playlist/<my_radio_station>" (ej: Wikiradio
(tool)/playlist/classic) and it could be archived.
Finally, the main station could use music to fill the gaps of a daily
radio programming based on Wikimania conferences, wiki podcasts, etc.
So, what do you think? Your help is welcome, picking new tracks for
any station or suggesting your ideas. Thanks. (Soure here)

Hello,
Centre for Internet and Society’s Access To Knowledge (CIS-A2K) program
would like to share with you the newsletter below for the month of December
2015. We look forward to hear any feedback or input you might have.
As per the 2007 census of India, there are about 7.4 million speakers who
speak Konkani as a native language. Many might not know though the language
finally made a late entry on Wikipedia in 2014 with the release of the Goan
Konkani Wikipedia (https://gom.wikipedia.org). Since the beginning of the
project as an Incubator project, it has faced several issues; complications
because of the multiple scripts used to write Konkani, building a community
from scratch (
http://www.dnaindia.com/blogs/post-konkani-wikipedia-climbing-up-the-indian…
to contribute to the Wikipedia project, and finding encyclopedic resources
to grow content. The Konkani community that contributes on Wikipedia is
predominantly present in Goa with a few contributors living elsewhere. The
statistical analysis of the last six months shows several trends of the
project and community growth. There is an overall state of both the content
and community seem to be stable with a total of 124 editors and 2400
articles. However, the growth trends are little worrying as there is hardly
any new editors that has joined the community in last six months. The
active editors (with more than 5 edits a month) have also slowed down over
time with a few them becoming inactive as the average of the number of
active editors for the previous six months (January-June 2015) was 18 that
has come down alarming to 5. Same is the case of very active editors (with
more than 100 edits a month) and number of new articles being created every
month. These downtrends are more of a result of the on-wiki, online and
offline activities slowing down. There is a great need for more leadership
and community-led activities that could be catalyzed by organizational
support.

== Resources created ==
• Indic Wikipedia policies and guidelines handbook:
Currently CIS-A2K is working with five Indian-language Wikimedia
communities (Kannada, Konkani, Marathi, Odia and Telugu). While working
with the mentioned Indic Wikimedia communities, we observed a number of
issues affecting them and we also noticed that there are many similarities
between the issues and difficulties faced by these communities. So, we
decided to start working a help document "Indic Wikipedia Policies and
Guidelines Handbook".
At first, we created a short handbook discussing a number of topics, such
as how to create new policies, or modify the existing ones, using village
pump, enforcing policies etc. Then we talked to Indic Wikipedians to know
more about the policies and guidelines-related issues and problems they are
facing. We also asked to give their feedback on the first draft of this
handbook.
The handbook is now released now and may be seen here (
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Indic_Wikipedia_Policies_and_Guidel…).

નમસ્તે વિકિમિત્રો,http://gu.wikiquote.org નો 6 ઑગસ્ટ 2005ના રોજ પ્રારંભ થયા બાદ 2015 સુધી પ્રકલ્પ નિષ્ક્રિય હતો. ડિસેમ્બરમાં કામ કરવાનું શરું કર્યું ત્યારે માત્ર 9 લેખોના પાના હતા અને ઉજ્જડ વન જેવી સ્થિતિ હતી. મને ગુજરાતી wikiquote પર પ્રબંધન અધિકાર હંગામી 3 મહિના માટે મળ્યો છે, જેનો એક મહિનો વિતી ગયો છે. આ દરમિયાન નીચે મુજબના કામો પૂરા કરી શકાયા છે.1.સંસ્કૃત, હિન્દી Wikiquote પર પ્રકલ્પનું નામ વિકિસૂક્તિ છે. તે મુજબ આપણે પણ પ્રકલ્પનું નામ વિકિઅવતરણમાંથી વિકિસૂક્તિ કર્યું છે. આ સૌથી યોગ્ય શબ્દ છે. Wikiquote નામથી જ પરિયોજનાના પાના બને છે તે નામ બદલીને વિકિસૂક્તિ કરવા તથા એ નામ સાથેના લોગા માટે ફેબ્રીકેટર પર બગ નોંધાવાયેલ છે.2.જૂના મુખપૃષ્ઠને બદલીને તદ્દન નવું જ મુખપૃષ્ઠ બનાવાયું છે. તેમાં રોજ એક સુઊક્તિ રોજેરોજ બદલે તે રીતે સુવિચારો પણ મૂકવામાં આવે છે.3.common.js થી માંડીને કોઇપણ મીડિયાવિકિ પાના નહોતા, હોટકેટ જેવા ઉપયોગી gedget સહિતના સાધનો સુવિધાઓ, વિભાગો, પ્રાથમિક ઉપયોગી ઢાંચાઓ વગેરે બનાવવામાં આવ્યા છે.3.લેખોની સંખ્યા 9 હતી તે વધીને 42 થઈ છે અને 824 અન્ય પાનાઓ બનાવાયા છે.4.આપણે વિકિસૂક્તિ પર મૂકાતા સુવાક્યોના ફોટા બનાવીને સોશ્યલ મીડિયા પર મૂકવાનું અને વિકિસૂક્તિ પર પણ મૂકવાનું વિચારીએ છીએ જે લોકપ્રિય થઈ જશે. શ્રીમદ ભગવત ગીતા, ચાણક્ય નીતિ, વિદુર નીતિ જેવા quote ચડાવવાનું વિચારણા હેઠળ છે. વિવિધ મહાપુરુષોની ઊક્તિઓ અને વિવિધ વિષયો પર વિવિધ મહાનુભાવોની ઊક્તિઓનો સારો સંગ્રહ થઈ રહ્યો છે.આ કાર્યમાં આપ સૌના સહકારની આવશ્યક્તા છે, ગુજરાતીના અન્ય પ્રકલ્પોની જેમ આ પ્રકલ્પ પણ ધબકતો થાય તેમ છે. નવા જૂના કોઇ જ સભ્યો હાલ નથી તે સ્થિતિમાં ગુવિકિના સક્રિયસભ્તયો રોજ થોડો સમય ફાળવીને મદદરુપ થઇ શકે છે. મહાપુરુષોના વાક્યો અને તેના જ્ઞાને સમાજમાં પરિવર્તનો સર્જ્યા છે ત્યારે એ મહામૂલુ જ્ઞાન અનેક ને ઉપયોગી થાય તેમ છે.--બટકતી આત્મા
મિત્રો,
વિકિસ્રોત પર સહકાર્ય પરિયોજના - "સરસ્વતીચંદ્ર (ભાગ ૩)" ની ભૂલશુદ્ધિનું કાર્ય પૂર્ણતાને આરે છે. આ સાથે પરિયોજના ક્રમાંક ૬૫ હેઠળ ગોવર્ધનરામ ત્રિપાઠીના લિખિત નવલકથા "સરસ્વતીચંદ્ર ભાગ ૪"ને સ્રોત પર ચડાવવાનું કાર્ય હાથમાં લઈએ છીએ.
ચાર ભાગમાં વહેંચાયેલી આ નવલકથા ઘણી પ્રચલીત બની છે. તેને આધારે ફિલમ તથા ટીવી ધારાવાહિક પણ બની છે.
ગુજરાતી ભાષાની આ અવિસ્મરણીય કૃતિને સ્રોત પર ચઢાવવાના કાર્યમાં જોડાવા માટે આપ નીચેની કડી પર જઈ વધુ માહિતી મેળવી શકશો.
https://gu.wikisource.org/wiki/%E0%AA%B8%E0%AB%82%E0%AA%9A%E0%AA%BF_%E0%AA%…
આભાર
