Translation notification: Wikimedia Highlights, July 2012

Hello Thehelpfulone,

You are receiving this notification because you signed up as a translator to Spanish and French on Meta. The page Wikimedia Highlights, July 2012 is available for translation. You can translate it here:

• translate to Spanish
• translate to French

The priority of this page is medium.

Note: This time, the "Wikimedia Foundation highlights" section does not include the usual coverage of the most notable work of Foundation staff during that month. Instead, it contains a list of talks given by Foundation staff at Wikimania, summarizing their most important work the year over. It looks like a lot of text, but only the talk titles will need to be translated. The intention is that these titles alone can already give readers a good overview of what the Foundation is working on in general.

You are receiving this message because you signed up to the new translation notification system. Questions about this system can be asked at [1], and you can manage your subscription at [2].

Your help is greatly appreciated. Translators like you help Meta to function as a truly multilingual community.

Thank you!

Page Curation newsletter

Hey Thehelpfulone/Archive. This will be, if not our final newsletter, one of the final ones :). After months of churning away at this project, our final version (apart from a few tweaks and bugfixes) is now live. Changes between this and the last release include deletion tag logging, a centralised log, and fixes to things like edit summaries.

Hopefully you like what we've done with the place; suggestions for future work on it, complaints and bugs to the usual address :). We'll be holding a couple of office hours sessions, which I hope you'll all attend. Many thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 11:06, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
