Invitation

Have you heard of the Kaffeeklatsch? It is a test area for women to hear and support each other. The idea came about as a result of a discussion at meta regarding my IdeaLab proposal (yet open) for WikiProject Women.

Now that the klatsch has survived an MfD and WMF legal has said that it does not violate the non discrimination policy,[1] I am looking for women editors who might like to join.

Although I have started a couple of discussions, they are not urgent. For now, the "Please introduce yourself" discussion is more important! I want to take it slow at first and build a small group before trying to address heavy topics or come up with big goals. For now, the klatsch is there as a sort of refuge. I hope you will consider joining, and invite other women editors, too, if you wish. Lightbreather (talk) 19:09, 20 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Per rispondere alla domanda che hai posto, la voce anch se non c'era su itwiki è stata fatta perché è di Brugherio, da qui l'intressamento di Yiyi in talk. Come puoi leggere in pagina utente di Victuallers Do have a hook at WiBrugherio--Alexmar983 (talk) 14:54, 5 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

List of libraries in Italy

Ciao. Ti informo che oggi ho impostato meglio la voce (avviso di incompletezza, template di navigazione, incipit standard). Qua su enwiki nessuno vuole la perfezione "ossessivamente" sulle voci-lista, ed è il motivo per cui da più di un anno la voce anche se impostata con carenze stilistiche e di contenuto è rimasta là tranquilla. Tuttavia suggerirei di migliorarla un po' aggiungendo biblioteche di altre regioni. Puoi chiedere ai tuoi colleghi un aiuto? Vai tranquilla che su enwikipedia non è richiesta la completezza o un'inclusione chiara, almeno non ancora. Basta solo che sia chiaro che c'è qualcosa di più oltre la Toscana.--Alexmar983 (talk) 07:55, 13 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

A demo wiki is up and running!

Dear members of WikiProject Genealogy, this will be the last newsletter for 2017, but maybe the most important one!

You can already now try out the demo for a genealogy wiki at https://tools.wmflabs.org/genealogy/wiki/Main_Page and try out the functions. You will find parts of the 18th Pharao dynasty and other records submitted by the 7 first users, and it would be great if you would add some records.

And with those great news we want to wish you a creative New Year 2018!

Invitation to participate in study

edit

Hello,

I am E. Whittaker, I am working with Wikimedia’s Scoring Team to create a labeled dataset, and potentially a tool, to help editors deal with incivility when they encounter it on talk pages. A full write-up of the study can be found here: m:Research:Civil_Behavior_Interviews. We are currently recruiting editors to be interviewed about their experiences with incivility on talk pages. Would you be interested in being interviewed? I am contacting you because of your involvement in Wikipedia’s Women in Red project. The interviews should take ~1 hour, and will be conducted over BlueJeans (which does allow interviews to be recorded). If, so, please email me at ewhit@umich.edu in order to schedule an interview.
