Structured Data - file captions coming this week (January 2019)

My apologies if this is a duplicate message for you, it is being sent to multiple lists which you may be signed up for.

Hi all, following up on last month's announcement...

Multilingual file captions will be released this week, on either Wednesday, 9 January or Thursday, 10 January 2019. Captions are a feature to add short, translatable descriptions to files. Here's some links you might want to look follow before the release, if you haven't already:

1. Read over the help page for using captions - I wrote the page on mediawiki.org because captions are available for any MediaWiki user, feel free to host/modify a copy of the page here on Commons.
2. Test out using captions on Beta Commons.
3. Leave feedback about the test on the captions test talk page, if you have anything you'd like to say prior to release.

Additionally, there will be an IRC office hour on Thursday, 10 January with the Structured Data team to talk about file captions, as well as anything else the community may be interested in. Date/time conversion, as well as a link to join, are on Meta.

Thanks for your time, I look forward to seeing those who can make it to the IRC office hour on Thursday. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 22:09, 7. Jan. 2019 (CET)

Tod ohne Beleg

Hallo Olaf, du hast ohne Beleg den Tod von Alfred Mechtersheimer eingetragen. Du weißt sicher, dass es eine Belegpflicht gibt, warum hast du den Eintrag trotzdem vorgenommen? Gruß, Qaswa (Diskussion) 11:44, 11. Jan. 2019 (CET)

@Qaswa: Die Info wurde dem Support-Team übersandt. Ich hätte diese Info geben müssen. --Olaf Kosinsky (Diskussion) 11:46, 11. Jan. 2019 (CET)

.... zumal du in der Versionsgeschichte nur "PD-fix, Kat.-fix" eingetragen, ihn tatsächlich aber für tot erklärt hast. ---- Danke für die Antwort. Qaswa (Diskussion) 11:49, 11. Jan. 2019 (CET)

Ist die Mitteilung definitiv belastbar, sodass ich Mechtersheimer auf der HS eintragen kann ? (Denn sein Tod ist eindeutig ein Fall für die HS, auch verspätet.) Qaswa (Diskussion) 12:12, 11. Jan. 2019 (CET)

@Qaswa: Die Mitteilung ist belastbar. Aus der gleichen Quellen kommen immer wieder Hinweise auf verstorbene Ex-MdB. --Olaf Kosinsky (Diskussion) 12:22, 11. Jan. 2019 (CET)

Vorlage:Zeitleiste Vorsitzende CSU Fraktion

Hallo Olaf Kosinsky!

Die von dir angelegte Seite Vorlage:Zeitleiste Vorsitzende CSU Fraktion wurde zum Löschen vorgeschlagen. Gemäß den Löschregeln wird über die Löschung mindestens sieben Tage diskutiert und danach entschieden.

Du bist herzlich eingeladen, dich an der Löschdiskussion zu beteiligen. Wenn du möchtest, dass der Artikel behalten wird, kannst du dort die Argumente, die für eine Löschung sprechen, entkräften, indem du dich beispielsweise zur enzyklopädischen Relevanz des Artikels äußerst. Du kannst auch während der Löschdiskussion Artikelverbesserungen vornehmen, die die Relevanz besser erkennen lassen und die Mindestqualität sichern.

Da bei Wikipedia jeder Löschanträge stellen darf, sind manche Löschanträge auch offensichtlich unbegründet; solche Anträge kannst du ignorieren.

Vielleicht fühlst du dich durch den Löschantrag vor den Kopf gestoßen, weil der Antragsteller die Arbeit, die du in den Artikel gesteckt hast, nicht würdigt. Sei tapfer und bleibe dennoch freundlich. Der andere meint es vermutlich auch gut.

Grüße, Xqbot (Diskussion) 12:55, 14. Jan. 2019 (CET)   (Diese Nachricht wurde automatisch durch einen Bot erstellt. Wenn du zukünftig von diesem Bot nicht mehr über Löschanträge informiert werden möchtest, trag dich hier ein.)

Außerdem war es schwieriger, Unterschiede im Diff zu erkennen. Dieses Problem betrifft Änderungen, die zwischen dem 8. und 17. Januar gemacht wurden, und ist jetzt behoben. (Task 213922)

Mein Artikel auf Wikipedia (Amira Mohamed Ali)

Sehr geehrter Herr Kosinsky,

ich habe gesehen, dass Sie meinen Artikel auf Wikipedia bearbeitet haben. Ich danke Ihnen für Ihr Interesse daran, die Informationen, die auf Wikipedia über mich verfügbar sind, zu aktualisieren.

Leider haben Sie einige falsche Informationen eingefügt: Ich arbeite nicht als Rechtsanwältin bei Osnabrück. Ich bin zugelassene Rechtsanwältin, aber bei der Anwaltskammer Oldenburg. Außerdem lebte ich nicht mit meiner Schwester in Fuhlsbüttel, sondern mit meinen Eltern und meinen drei Schwestern in Hamburg, Fuhlsbüttel (Fuhlsbüttel ist ein Stadtteil von Hamburg, keine eigene Stadt).

Ich wäre Ihnen sehr verbunden, wenn Sie Ihren Eintrag entsprechen korrigieren würden. Falls Sie eine Rückfrage haben, können Sie mich gern per mail kontaktieren: amira.mohamedali@bundestag.de

Vielen Dank vorab und freundliche Grüße Amira Mohamed Ali

Ausrufer – 32. Woche

Adminkandidaturen: Toni Müller, Jivee Blau, Neozoon
Wettbewerbe: Wiki Loves Monuments 2019 Deutschland, Kandidatensuche, Jury, Wartungsbausteinwettbewerb Sommer 2019

Kurier – rechte Spalte: Unterstützung im Team Ideenförderung, Unsere Grenzen, Lightning Talks auf der WikiCon 2019, Begeisterung im Düsseldorfer Südpark, Aktionstag „Wikipedia vor Ort“ 2019 – Anmeldung noch bis zum 1. August
Projektneuheiten:

Für Jedermann

• (Softwareneuheit) Die Funktion „kommentarlos zurücksetzen“ hat nun hier in der Wikipedia standardmäßig eine Sicherheitsabfrage, ob wirklich zurückgesetzt werden soll. Wer weiterhin ohne Sicherheitsabfrage revertieren will, kann sie in den eigenen Einstellungen deaktivieren. Bei der Realisierung durch das Technikteam von WMDE handelt es sich um die Realisierung eines technischen Wunsches (mehr Infos zur Funktion, Task 215020, Gerrit:488048).

Für Jedermann

• (Softwareneuheit) URL-Shortener: Mit Hilfe eines Services auf Meta können Kurz-URLs aller Seiten erzeugt werden, die von der Wikimedia Foundation betrieben werden. Das Format der URL lautet w.wiki/, gefolgt von einer Buchstaben- und Zeichenfolge. Beispiel: w.wiki/3 leitet bereits jetzt weiter auf wikimedia.org. (Dokumentation, Task 44085, Ankündigung auf EN).
• (UI) Der Abschnitt „Suchen in“ in der Erweiterten Suchoberfläche ist nun standardmäßig eingeklappt. Er kann ausgeklappt werden, um die zu durchsuchenden Namensräumen zu spezifizieren. Andernfalls wird in den vorausgewählten Namensräumen gesucht, die als kleine „Pillen“ angezeigt werden. Durch diese Änderung wird die Suchoberfläche verkleinert, Ladezeiten werden verkürzt und die Erweiterten Suchoptionen werden besser sichtbar. (Task 217443)

Für Programmierer

• (Vorlagenprogrammierung/Lua) Die Variable {{REVISIONID}} steht aus Performancegründen nicht länger im ANR zur Verfügung (Task 137900, Gerrit:294774).
• (JavaScript) Durch einen JavaScript-Hook in der Mediawiki-Erweiterung AdvancedSearch ist es nun für Helferlein und andere Erweiterungen möglich, neue Felder in der Erweiterten Suchoberfläche zu ergänzen (Dokumentation) (Task 217446).

Für Jedermann

• (Softwareneuheit) Das Bearbeitungsfilter-Logbuch kann nach Filtergruppen gefiltert werden (Gerrit:485069).
• (Softwareneuheit) Die Benachrichtigungsfunktion „Seitenverlinkung“ steht aus Performancegründen nur noch On-wiki, aber nicht mehr als E-Mail-Versand zur Verfügung (Task 219444, Gerrit:499582, fix Gerrit:499582).

Für Programmierer

• (API) Add meta=userinfo&uiprop=latestcontrib. Returns the timestamp of user's latest contribution (Task 208636, Gerrit:498520).

(Pywikibot) Eine neue Version 3.0.20190430 wurde als Tag bereitgestellt. Die Änderungen enthalten unter anderem:

• Bei Falschschreibungen beim Scriptaufruf werden sämtliche ähnlich lautende Scripte aufgelistet. Zur Ähnlichkeitssuche wird der Gestalt-Pattern-Matching-Algorithmus verwendet.

Für Jedermann

• (Softwareneuheit) Die Benachrichtigungen über Meilensteine (Danke für die 1., 10., 100. usw. Bearbeitung) kann in den persönlichen Einstellungen deaktiviert werden (Task 169924, Gerrit:502893).

Für Programmierer

• (API) Use POST to submit wikitext to mw.api.parse (Task 216837, Gerrit:506005).
• (SECURITY - API BREAKING CHANGE) Require logout token (Task 25227, Gerrit:504565).

Für Jedermann

• (Softwareneuheit) Der MediaViewer bietet die Möglichkeit, Versionen in den Größen 480 Pixel, 720 Pixel, 1080 Pixel und 2160 Pixel Breite herunterzuladen (Task 77642, Gerrit:511137).

Für Programmierer

• (API) Add site param to ApiQueryGlobalUsage. Introduces a site parameter to limit unwanted results and the need for continuation (Gerrit:513140).
• (API) Subtitles served through API, with WebVTT conversion (Task 78511, Task 155211, Gerrit:232214).
• (Betatest) Eine neue Software zum Ansehen von Videos steht als Betatest zur Verfügung. Sowohl hier als auch auf Wikimedia Commons.

Für Jedermann

• Arbeiten an der Wikidata Bridge haben begonnen. Mit dieser Benutzeroberfläche sollen sich Wikidata-Daten in Infoboxen aus Wikipedia heraus bearbeiten lassen. Mehr Infos gibt es hier.

Für Programmierer

• (JavaScript) Remove JavaScript global variable wgLoadScript (Gerrit:520279).
• (API) Add schema version param for API export (Task 174031, Gerrit:480244).
• (API) Add action=query&meta=languageinfo API module (Task 74153, Task 220415, Gerrit:510705).
• (Serverkonfiguration) Administratoren können nun Benutzersperren auf einzelnen Seiten und/oder Namensräumen beschränken. Basis ist das Meinungsbild partielle Benutzersperrung (Task 228150).

Structured Data - blogs posted in Wikimedia Space

There are two separate blog entries for Structured Data on Commons posted to Wikimedia Space that are of interest:

• Working with Structured Data on Commons: A Status Report, by Lucas Werkmeister, discusses some ways that editors can work with structured data. Topics include tools that have been written or modified for structured data, in addition to future plans for tools and querying services.
• Structured Data on Commons - A Blog Series, written by me, is a five-part posting that covers the basics of the software and features that were built to make structured data happen. The series is meant to be friendly to those who may have some knowledge of Commons, but may not know much about the structured data project.

I hope these are informative and useful, comments and questions are welcome. All the blogs offer a comment feature, and you can log in with your Wikimedia account using oAuth. I look forward to seeing some posts over there. -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 23:33, 23. Sep. 2019 (CEST)

Hinweis zu Kurz-URL-Verlinkung von faz.net

Gudn Tach!
Wenn ich richtig gesehen habe, hast du im Artikel Vonovia im Rahmen deiner Ergänzungen einen Kurz-URL auf faz.net benutzt.

Dazu drei Anmerkungen:

• In der Wikipedia streben wir immer die langfristige Verfügbarkeit eines verlinkten Inhalts an. Bei einem Kurz-URL (wie z.B. https://www.faz.net/-ikh-9jwfg) ist das nicht gegeben, da der dahintersteckende Original-URL (im Beispiel https://www.faz.net/aktuell/wirtschaft/diginomics/wikipedia-braucht-das-internetlexikon-bald-bezahlte-autoren-16045036.html) nicht mehr rekonstruierbar sind, wenn der Kurz-URL mal defekt sein sollte.
• Anhand der langen Form können wir Textsuchen starten und defekte und unerreichbare URL an anderer Stelle wiederfinden.
• Außerdem lassen sich leichter Verwechslungen etwa zwischen zwei Zeitungsartikeln erkennen, weil die Überschrift im Klartext drinsteht.

Könntest du deswegen bitte künftig darauf achten, statt Kurz-URLs die längeren URLs zu verlinken? Zum Extrahieren des langen URLs kannst du das Tool https://tools.wmflabs.org/url-converter/ verwenden. Im oben verlinkten Fall versuche ich, den Link selbst zu ersetzen.

Falls dir das insgesamt zu technisch ist, kannst du diese Meldung auch einfach ignorieren. Soo wichtig ist die Angelegenheit nicht. :-)

Eine archivierte Diskussionen zum Thema findest du unter:

• Wikipedia:Fragen_zur_Wikipedia/Archiv/2019/Woche_07#FAZ:_PURL_oder_Kurz-URL?

Ich bin übrigens nur ein Bot. Falls ich nicht richtig funktioniere, sag bitte seth Bescheid.
Frohes Schaffen und freundliche Grüße! :-) -- CamelBot (Diskussion) 16:27, 13. Nov. 2019 (CET)
