Hi everyone, The next strategic planning office hours are: Wednesday, 04:00-05:00 UTC, which is: -Tuesday (8-9pm PST) -Tuesday (11pm-12am EST) There has been a lot of tremendous work on the strategy wiki the past few months, and Task Forces are finishing up their work. Office hours will be a great opportunity to discuss the work that's happened as well as the work to come. As always, you can access the chat by going to https://webchat.freenode.net and filling in a username and the channel name (#wikimedia-strategy). You may be prompted to click through a security warning. It's fine. More details at: http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours Thanks! Hope to see many of you there. ____________________ Philippe Beaudette Facilitator, Strategy Project Wikimedia Foundation philippe(a)wikimedia.org mobile: 918 200-WIKI (9454) Imagine a world in which every human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge.

Which scanner for books?
by Marie-Lan Tay Pamart 02 Apr '10

02 Apr '10

Hi everyone, I hope I'm not off topic on this mailing-list. I'm looking for a scanner to scan books for Wikisource. I'm rather confused by the quantity of products on the market, plus many reviews focus on film scanners. Also, I need the scanner to be Mac compatible. Would you have some advance ? Thanks in advance. -- Marie-Lan / Jastrow

Are the Page Views statistics fair enough ?
by syagrius＠gmx.fr 15 Mar '10

Since the wikisource sub-domains are now classified by page views count, I guess it should at least be fair. If we look to the statistics for December 2009, we see that an important part of the English wikisource traffic (http://stats.grok.se/en.s/) comes from "Special:AutoLogin", of the Russian one (http://stats.grok.se/ru.s/) from "Special:Filepath/XXpng", of the German one (http://stats.grok.se/de.s/) from "{{{EXTERNESBILD}}}" (I don't know what it is) and some "png", and of the Spanish one (http://stats.grok.se/es.s/) from "Special:Filepath/XXpng", etc. There was the same problem on French wikisource some months ago, and it was fortunately corrected. Could anyone correct all this on every sub-domain ? Regards, Syagrius

The name "Old Wikisource"
by Milos Rancic 01 Mar '10

01 Mar '10

(Please, continue to discuss at foundation-l.) I think that the term "Old Wikisource" and wiki abbreviation "oldwikisource" is really bad for the purpose of Wikisource (hosting "the rest" of material). Something like "Multilingual Wikisource" would be better (or whatever). So, may I ask fold from Wikisource to find a better name, and fill the but at Bugzilla for changing the abbreviation?
