'Sorotan Wikimedia bulanan meringkas kegiatan WMF yang paling terkenal dan berita gerakan lainnya dari blog Wikimedia. Tujuannya adalah untuk memberikan nilai bagi para pembaca yang mungkin tidak memiliki waktu untuk membaca keseluruhan blog, dan untuk memfasilitasi terjemahan.
Sorotan Wikimedia dimulai pada tahun 2011 sebagai kombinasi dari aspek yang paling menonjol dari laporan Wikimedia Foundation dan laporan teknis Wikimedia (termasuk keuangan dasar dan data lalu lintas) dengan pilihan singkat peristiwa penting lainnya dalam gerakan Wikimedia selama bulan itu. Mengikuti perkembangan blog Wikimedia dalam ruang lingkup dan cakupan, dan dengan pelaporan Yayasan beralih dari jadwal publikasi bulanan ke tiga bulanan, Sorotan Wikimedia sekarang (sejak edisi Oktober 2014) berfokus pada meringkas berita dari blog Wikimedia seluruhnya.
Setiap terbitan baru diposting di daftar pengumuman seluruh gerakan WikimediaAnnounce-l dan di blog Wikimedia Foundation (RSS). Anda juga dapat berlangganan di sini untuk mendapatkan pesan ringkasan yang dikirimkan ke halaman pembicaraan pengguna Anda di proyek Wikimedia mana pun tepat setelah setiap terbitan diterbitkan.

The Wikimedia Research team has designed a system that finds, ranks, and recommends missing articles to be created across different language versions of Wikipedia. It takes into account editor interests (extracted from their public contribution history), proficiency across languages, and the projected popularity of an article in the target language, if it were to be created. One controlled test of these results show that recommendations tripled the rate at which editors create articles, while maintaining the same level of article quality.
The tool comes with an API, currently integrated into the Content Translation tool. Over the coming months, the Wikimedia Research team will be monitoring the tool closely to learn more about how it’s being used by editors and how it can be further improved. If you try out the article recommendation tool, you can provide the Research team with feedback on our discussion page.

The Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee hosted a one-day session to help students understand the working of the MediaWiki community. The day-long hackathon included every aspect of MediaWiki, from installing the software, setting up the environment to fixing some easy bugs, and submitting the patches for review. It was attended by 20 students, who were given certain pre-requisites and were selected based upon the fulfillment of these, thereby making certain that all the attendees were at the same phase. At the end of the day, we had 15 successful patch submissions (pushed) to the core. Additionally, 5 more changes have been committed locally and are to be pushed (as of now).

The Supreme Court of Sweden has ruled against Wikimedia Sverige (Sweden) in a case involving freedom of panorama in the country. The Court decided that Swedish copyright law does not allow Wikimedia Sverige to post images in its online database offentligkonst.se (a website / database covering publicly placed art) without permission from the artist.
The Wikimedia Foundation respectfully disagrees with the Supreme Court’s decision to erode the freedom of panorama that is a fundamental part of freedom of expression, freedom of information, and artistic expression. As we read it, the Swedish copyright law in question only limits the production of three-dimensional copies of sculptures, and cannot be interpreted as placing limits on pictures of public art being published on the internet. The fact that the copyright law allows images of public art on postcards, even for profit and without the artist’s consent, demonstrates this intent and, in our opinion, is inconsistent with the Supreme Court’s interpretation of the law.
In Brief
- TED is partnering with the Wikimedia community to add “ideas worth spreading” to Wikimedia projects: In a new partnership with Wikimedia community members, TED has donated the massive amount of metadata behind more than 2,000 talks, many of which have been transcribed and translated by a worldwide network of TED volunteers. By adding TED metadata to Wikidata, Wikimedians Jane Darnell and Andy Mabbett are documenting what knowledge is available from TED talks and making it easier for that information to be found and used across Wikimedia projects.
- Europeana Art History Challenge begins: With 40 languages, 30 countries, and hundreds of artworks, the Europeana Art History Challenge has now begun—the largest ever GLAM-Wiki competition and the first to highlight Wikidata. The project is “based” on Wikidata, and improving the quality of the metadata there about these works, their artists, genres etc. is just as much a part of this competition as are the translations on Wikipedia.
- He reaches across continents: editing the Urdu Wikipedia from the Czech Republic: Over the past seven years, Jiří attained a remarkable command of the Urdu language, which is the official language of Pakistan and six states in India, and has written or expanded a number of articles in the language’s Wikipedia. Jiří likes to contribute articles especially on historical, biological and pharmacological topics. He is especially proud of his contributions on Czech history, although he would like to focus on articles about medicinal plants in the near future.
