It would be a very good timing if you could send to ChapCom, complementing info according to what I wrote on my discussion page. I see that you now have over 30 on your list. That and the person from Albanian wp makes a much stronger case for you. We have just a few day if your application should be send to the Baord for an approval by their meeting by end of August (their next meeting is in middle November).

Regarding your question, the resolution right now sits with the Board, I don't have any timeframe the only thing I can ask of you is to be patient :).--DamianFinol 14:17, 2 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Dear Kiril Simeonovski,

You have helped us in previous years with translations and for that we are most grateful. Now we turn towards the 2011/12 fundraiser. It may seem forever away, but work has already begun getting everything ready to go. This year we want to have landing pages covering as many countries in as many languages as possible.

Right now, we want to figure out who is interested in translating for the fundraiser. This year we're hoping to have more of a solidified "core" group of translators that we can count on to have work done by a few key dates, but we'd also welcome help from people who are willing to just help out when they can.

If you would be interested please take a look at this little sign-up survey and fill it out http://survey.wikimedia.org/index.php?sid=13638&newtest=Y&lang=en. With that we can start building a list of people and filling any gaps in the languages we serve.

Many Thanks

Hi :-) thank you for putting yourself forward for the FDC. I want to draw your attention to the list of questions that people can answer to help the Board of Trustees learn more about the people volunteering for the committee.

Hello! As you may know, we've opened the community review period for the current funding round in the Funds Dissemination Committee process. I noticed that in the past you expressed interest in the FDC, since you were a nominee for the committee. I'd like to invite you to review the 4 proposals (totaling $1.3 million USD) that were submitted to the FDC, and to ask questions and share comments about those proposals. You can help to ensure that they have high potential for impact regarding the movement's goals. The FDC especially values comments by community members and will take them into account when they prepare their recommendations. Let me know if you have any questions! --Katy Love, Senior Program Officer, Funds Dissemination Committee, Wikimedia Foundation, 22:36, 14 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

You were suggested as someone who might be interested in the Ally Skills Training Workshop at Wikimania! The workshop is designed to train Wikipedia admins to be more aware of sexism and is funded by an Inspire grant. The workshop will focus on teaching specific skills and techniques directly relevant to Wikipedia admins and editors, and in particular will teach people about the psychology of trolls. The workshop will be on Thursday July 16 from 2pm to 5pm in Don Diego 3.

If you are attending Wikimania, you are invited to apply to the Ally Skills Workshop! Space is limited and we may not be able to accept all applications, so apply now. More information, including a link to the application form, is here:

I've recently launched an Inspire Campaign to encourage new ideas focusing on content review and curation in Wikimedia projects. Wikimedia volunteers collaboratively manage vast repositories of knowledge, and we’re looking for your ideas about how to manage that knowledge to make it more meaningful and accessible. We invite you to participate and submit ideas, so please get involved today! The campaign runs until March 28th.

All proposals are welcome - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Constructive feedback on ideas is welcome - your skills and experience can help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign to improve review and curation tasks so that we can make our content more meaningful and accessible! I JethroBT (WMF) 05:39, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Through June, we’re organizing an Inspire Campaign to encourage and support new ideas focusing on addressing harassment toward Wikimedia contributors. The 2015 Harassment Survey has shown evidence that harassment in various forms - name calling, threats, discrimination, stalking, and impersonation, among others - is pervasive. Available methods and systems to deal with harassment are also considered to be ineffective. These behaviors are clearly harmful, and in addition, many individuals who experience or witness harassment participate less in Wikimedia projects or stop contributing entirely.

Proposals in any language are welcome during the campaign - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Constructive feedback on ideas is appreciated, and collaboration is encouraged - your skills and experience may help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign so that we can work together to develop ideas around this important and difficult issue. With thanks,

Hello, Kiril. While I think that we don't have it written "black on white", I think it is obvious that adding content to already closed issues like this is not a good idea, for a number of reasons. The least, of course, being that the readers of the December 2017 issue will probably never see content added retroactively in October 2018, and also, the issues is being sent by the Mass Message Delivery Bot to all subscribers, and this change now cannot be updated to all the pages where the subscribers have requested delivery. I would recommend instead to contribute with new content to the current volume CEE/Newsletter/Newsroom, but when a volume is finalized my intuitive understanding is it should remain as it is. →Spiritia 12:34, 29 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Spiritia: Hi Vassia. You have a good point and I apologise for the inconvenience. I have immediately reverted the change and brought back the report to its stable version. In relation to this, do you think we should allow reporting activities that happened in the previous months (and were not timely included in the corresponding monthly newsletters) in the newsletter for the current month? For me, this is also highly inappropriate, as the monthly basis of the newsletter precisely frames the time period that should be covered. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 09:20, 31 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

Greetings,

Integrating Wikimedia with education is a powerful strategy for the outreach of Wikimedia projects. Realising this concept, a group of leaders promoted this and formed the Wikipedia Education Collaborative. After some time, this evolved to become a user group, officially recognised by the Affiliations Committee in June 2018. The user group had its first board elections earlier in September. In the process to formalise activities and give a shape the user group for long-term sustainability, we are now revamping our processes. Thanks for supporting us during incubation stages, we are now inviting you to formally join the user group by following the instructions on the members' page. Being a member will allow you to be a part of this wonderful collaboration and also do interesting stuff.

Kind regards

Hey Kiril, saw that you are adding an event for the Macedonian Wikipedia at at this page. Are you able to set up a Programs and Events dashboard for this? Do you need any help? Astinson (WMF) (talk) 23:22, 4 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Astinson (WMF): Hi Alex and thanks for the reminder. I have set up a dashboard for the localised initiative on the Macedonian Wikipedia as an article-scoped programme in order to get track of edits made by users in the general category on human rights. I would be very thankful if you help me on how to assign this category to all participants in the initiative so that their edits are counted only from articles in the category or its subcategories. Thanks in advance. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 08:19, 5 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

So I added a really deep petscan id: see it here -- but it might be too deep -- you still need a list of editors to go with it as well, to make sure that you get edits from them. Astinson (WMF) (talk) 18:31, 5 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Kiril Simeonovski:, there are a lot of articles that are getting added to the campaign that aren't really in the scope of #WikiForHumanRights because of the depth of the Petscan query: do you think you could refine it, by reducing the depth or removing some of the subcategory trees so that we get a more refined sense of how much participation was in the campaign? I went through and did some manual removal from the events, but its hard to do that in a language I don't read. Thanks :) Astinson (WMF) (talk) 16:33, 21 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Astinson (WMF): Hi Alex. Yes, I can do it. Thanks for reaching out to me about this.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 16:47, 21 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Astinson (WMF): I tried to reduce the depth of the Petscan query from 5 to 2 but it remains unchanged after refreshing the page. Another thing that needs correction is the number of uploaded images to Wikimedia Commons outside the human rights category that gets counted as well. At the end, we managed to extend a partnership with the local Institute for human rights that will result in a Human rights edit-a-thon in the beginning of February (shortly after the original run ends) and there will be additional adjustments to capture the outcome from that event.

Hello~I cannot find the Macedonian Wikipedia Asian Month 2020 Fountain pages. Could you help me?--KOKUYO (talk) 18:14, 25 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

BTW, we found that some Fountain pages cannot be displayed properly (like Latvian Wikipedia), and contacted Le Loi (the tool developer) for this question. He says these pages haven't been created or approved yet.

The Macedonian Wikipedia Asian Month Fountain pages need admin (from Macedonian Wikipedia) to go to their profile (chick their name at top of the page), select "approval" and approve the editahon. (like this) This change is to prevent creation of vandal editahon with attacks in the title.

I hope this information will help you. If you have any question, please tell me.--KOKUYO (talk) 09:33, 26 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi there, I'm a researcher for the Wikilambda project. Last month we held a naming contest and I'm following up with those who voted to see if you might be willing to provide some feedback to help guide the project.

This would be a 45 minute conversation about your past experience with other Wikimedia projects and thoughts about the future of this new initiative. I'm hoping to gather a wide range of perspectives so I'd be interested in your opinion regardless of whether you plan to have further involvement.

As a way of saying thanks, the research team is offering a $35 gift card (in your local currency) for participation. We could chat by phone or through a website for audio conferencing.

If you're interested just pick a time slot from this calendar link:

Both UN Human Rights and the WMF team are really grateful. Initial data suggests that this year we doubled the volume of content created and grew the campaign in languages and geographies. This kind of activation only works when we have local-organizers doing targeted outreach to their communities.

We are still learning how to organize this campaign, would like your feedback. Please fill out this survey at: this google form.

We will use the summary of findings and recommendations from the survey for the report on the campaign and for designing next year’s campaign. Our hope is to support more decentralized events, potentially with less experienced organizers -- so we need your help understanding what worked, what didn’t and what kinds of preparation we need to help communities with next year.

Dear Kiril,

I am so super happy to see that our session "Innovate in free knowledge: How can we attract innovators and new projects from the CEE region?" has been accepted for the upcoming CEE Meeting!

With regards to this, there is one minor request for adjustment: I think the "theme" this session is assigned to does not match to our purpose as we are not focussing on GLAM at all. Would it be possible to re-assign us to a more suitable theme? Ideally, "innovation" would be most suitable. But "strategy & community" would also work. Maybe you have another suggestion for us? If we leave the session under the theme GLAM, it will certainly be misleading for the audience to will join the session.

Thank you and looking forward to your feedback!

Kannika (User:Kannika Thaimai (WMDE))

@Kannika Thaimai (WMDE): Sure. I've re-assigned it to "Community & Strategy". Thanks for spotting and reporting that mistake. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 09:10, 21 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi Kiril, yes, technically it is possible. But we need to add a way to recognize such articles. For women there is 'topic=women' as parameter in the template.

@Masti thank you. I am not quite sure I understand fully all the relations of Wikidata and Category system and if I maybe messed up something, so if you catch a minute to illustrate what is needed - that would be super helpful :-p

Dear Kiril Simeonovski,

I hope you are doing well,

We are a group of researchers from King’s College London working on developing WQT (Wikidata Quality Toolkit), which will support a diverse set of editors in curating and validating Wikidata content.

We are inviting you to participate in an online workshop aimed at understanding the requirements for designing effective and easy-to-use user interfaces (UI) for three tools within WQT that can support the daily activities of Wikidata editors: recommending items to edit based on their personal preferences, finding items that need better references, and generating entity schemas automatically for better item quality.

The main activity during this workshop will be UI mockup sketching. To facilitate this, we encourage you to attend the workshop using a tablet or laptop with PowerPoint installed or any other drawing tools you prefer. This will allow for a more interactive and productive session as we delve into the UI mockup sketching activities.

Participation is completely voluntary. You should only take part if you want to and choosing not to take part will not disadvantage you in any way. However, your cooperation will be valuable for the WQT design. Please note that all data and responses collected during the workshop will be used solely for the purpose of improving the WQT and understanding editor requirements. We will analyze the results in an anonymized form, ensuring your privacy is protected. Personal information will be kept confidential and will be deleted once it has served its purpose in this research.

The online workshop, which will be held on April 5th, should take no more than 3 hours.

If you agree to participate in this workshop, please either contact me at kholoud.alghamdi@kcl.ac.uk or use this form to register your interest https://forms.office.com/e/9mrE8rXZVg Then, I will contact you with all the instructions for the workshop.

For more information about my project, please read this page: https://king-s-knowledge-graph-lab.github.io/WikidataQualityToolkit/

If you have further questions or require more information, don't hesitate to contact me at the email address mentioned above.

Thank you for considering taking part in this project.

I am sorry that your username does not appear on the ranking list even though you have written 17 articles for the contest, but the ranking was made using the automatically generated statistics on the contributions on this page. The most probable reason for the omission of your contributions is that the template was not properly placed on the talk page, so the bot that automatically generates the statistics on the contributions failed to record them. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 09:29, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_CEE_Spring_2024/CEE_for_Human_Rights I am disappointed that my name is not on the other list, while I have the same username and articles as the other contributors on the mentioned list. But if you look closely, I acted according to the rules. Is it not possible to revise the results? Not being able to take a place in the competition, which I participated with great enthusiasm and desire, made me very disappointed. Thank you for your attention.

The ranking was made based on the automatically generated list on this page. I am sorry that your contributions were not recorded. The members of the international team do not speak all languages of the participating communities, so we are unable to detect whether someone's contributions were not recorded and find out the reasons for that. This is something that had to be communicated with the local organisers as we do not have full control of who creates the templates in every single language and whether they work properly. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 12:14, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

• Hello Kiril Simeonovski I think the results are unfair. With 27 articles I was left without a prize in the Human Rights competition. The choice was very unfair. --En Merker (talk) 11:10, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

@En Merker: Hello. I have responded to a similar complaint immediately above. The ranking was based on the automatically generated list on this page. The most probable reason is that the template was not properly placed on the talk page, so the bot that automatically generates the statistics failed to record your contributions. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 11:54, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Xayala Mammadli and En Merker: We detected that there’s definitely a problem with the template on the Azeri Wikipedia. Please contact Wertuose, who was local organiser of CEE Spring on your Wikipedia, to fix the template. Once the template is fixed, Masti will re-run the bot so that a corrected list is generated and we’ll revise the results. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 05:49, 1 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Kiril, our template is not so different from those in other wikis. I just want to know what we have to improve. If Masti's bot calculates articles in relevant category, so we also have that category. Maybe @Masti: can show me the source of the problem. Wertuose (talk) 08:57, 1 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello Kiril Simeonovski please check this out https://github.com/masti01/pcms3/pull/1 --En Merker (talk) 10:28, 2 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

@En Merker: Thanks for spotting the problem. I'll wait until the template is fixed and the bot generates the corrected statistics so that the ranking can be revised. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 10:38, 2 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Kiril Simeonovski: Hello, thank you. I will wait for your reply.--En Merker (talk) 10:45, 2 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi Kiril, the problem is not in our template, but in the bot counting the results, so it needs to be fixed so that az-wiki's results to be calculated correctly. Wertuose (talk) 13:07, 2 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Wertuose: Hi, if the problem is with the bot, then Masti is the right person to contact. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 08:37, 3 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Ok, then. I will contact him about it. Thank you.--Wertuose (talk) 08:41, 3 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Wertuose: I will work on that over weekend. masti <talk> 16:18, 4 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Dear organizers who have previously participated in Wikipedia Asian Month,

Greetings from Wikipedia Asian Month User Group!

We haven't seen you at Wikipedia Asian Month for a long time! Since you have been an organizer of WAM for the past nine years, we would like to share some new changes for this year's event. This year, we have found ambassadors to support offline activities for communities and we are planning to establish a Steering Committee to expand the development of WAMUG and ensure its sustainability.

We would love to invite you and your partners to collaborate on being organizers again for your language's Wikipedia once again. The events will take place from November to December this year. You can choose to hold activities during any one-month period within these two months.

If you would like to organize an edit-a-thon or other offline events, please feel free to reach out to me. We can provide resources and support. We hope to see Wikipedia Asian Month thrive again with you and potentially engage in more projects in the future!

Thank you!
