A barnstar for you!

Dear translator, with this barnstar the Community Liaisons would like to express their gratitude for your outstanding contributions to the recent 2nd VisualEditor Translathon. The initiative was really successful and we hope you enjoyed participating as much as we enjoyed organizing it! If you're looking for a new opportunity to translate VE-related content, please join translators working on the August's issue of the VisualEditor multilingual newsletter, which will be widely delivered at the end of this workweek. Among other things, this month it features the names of the top contributors for the Translathon ;) Again, thanks a lot for your help! —Elitre (WMF) and Trizek (WMF), 15:41, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

PS: Here are some instructions. Please go to the translation page: your language should be available from the drop-down menu on the right. Once you've selected it, you'll see the document in English side by side with any translation work already done in your language. You can add new translations or modify existing ones.

PPS: We are maintaining a list of editors who have worked on VE-related content (such as newsletters). We only use it to notify them of translation opportunities, to make sure they don't miss Translathons, etc. If you would like messages like this one to be delivered on your talk page at a different WMF project, need any help with translations related to VisualEditor or would like to remove your name from that list, please contact Elitre directly.

What future IdeaLab campaigns would you like to see?

Hi there,

I’m Jethro, and I’m seeking your help in deciding topics for new IdeaLab campaigns that could be run starting next year. These campaigns aim to bring in proposals and solutions from communities that address a need or problem in Wikimedia projects. I'm interested in hearing your preferences and ideas for campaign topics!

Here’s how to participate:

• Learn more about this consultation
• Vote on and submit new campaign topics in the AllOurIdeas Survey
• Discuss campaign topics and ask questions on the IdeaLab talk page

Take care,

Translations

Please do not create "translations" that are just the English text. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 00:44, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Additionally, please make sure that the language translated to is the correct one - for /as translations, text should be translated to Assamese, not Bangla DannyS712 (talk) 00:47, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Having discovered just how many poor translations there are, I opened a thread at Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat - please see Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat/Archives/2020-10#Translations by দিব্য দত্ত DannyS712 (talk) 00:55, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Feminism and Folklore 2025: Important Updates for Organizers & Jury

Hello Community Organizers and Jury,

Thank you for organising Feminism and Folklore writing competition on your wiki. Feminism and Folklore is the largest Wikipedia contest organized by community members. We congratulate you in joining and celebrating our cultural heritage and promoting gender equality on Wikipedia.

To encourage boost for the contributions of the participants, we're offering prizes for Feminism and Folklore local prizes. Each Wikipedia will have three local winners:

*First Prize: $25 USD

*Second Prize: $20 USD

All this will be in gift voucher format only.

Prizes will only be given to users who have more than 5 accepted articles. No prizes will be given for users winning below 5 accepted articles.

Kindly inform your local community regarding these prizes and post them on the local project page

The Best Jury Article will be chosen by the jury based on how unique the article is aligned with the theme. The jury will review all submissions and decide the winner together, making sure it's fair. These articles will also be featured on our social media handles.

We're also providing internet and childcare support to the first 75 organizers and Jury members for those who request for it. Remember, only 75 organizers will get this support, and it's given on a first-come, first-served basis. The registration form will close after 75 registrations, and the deadline is '''March 5, 2025'''. This support is optional and not compulsory, so if you're interested, fill out the form [[1]]

Each organizer/jury who gets support will receive $40 USD in gift voucher format, even if they're involved in more than one wiki. No dual support will be provided if you have signed up in more than one language. This support is meant to appreciate your volunteer support for the contest.

We also invite all organizers and jury members to join us for Advocacy session on Saturday, Feb 28, 2025.
