《求聞》快訊：基金會近期宣布四起人事變動
【《求聞》北京2月7日訊】據英文維基百科《路標》月刊報道，詹姆斯·亞歷山大低調退出維基媒體基金會。
詹姆斯·亞歷山大曾是基金會的長期雇員，自2010年8月以來一直擔任信任與安全部經理，悄然由維基媒體基金會離職。伴隨着批評維基百科的論壇——Wikipediocracy上的大量猜測，維基媒體基金會的網站上沒有任何聲明。亞歷山大顯然已經悄無聲息地從舊金山辦公室離職。基金會官網上所有提到亞歷山大的地方都已經被小心刪除。
【基金會網站2月6日消息】題：維多利亞·科爾曼辭去維基媒體的首席技術官一職
支撐着自由知識的平台維基百科的非營利組織維基媒體基金會今天宣布維多利亞·科爾曼辭去她首席技術官的角色。
【《求聞》北京2月7日訊】1月31日，基金會在其網站上宣布莉薩·萊文加入董事會。她將於即日起開始她總共兩年的任期。
莉薩·萊文是「道德」風險投資公司的管理夥伴。「道德」風投是一家總部設於紐約的管理諮詢公司，麗薩是創辦人之一。網站上說，她創辦的「道德」風投「為企業和大型非營利組織的高級管理人員提供在變革方面提供方向，幫助建立蓬勃發展、對社會有積極影響的組織」。
【《求聞》北京2月7日訊】1月24日，基金會宣布，任命瓦萊麗·德科斯塔為「社群參與官」，主管社群參與方面。
瓦萊麗·德科斯塔來自新加坡。她在加入基金會前，曾為新加坡政府工作十五年，而後又在世界銀行工作十年。維基媒體基金會的執行董事凱瑟琳·馬赫評價道，瓦萊麗熟悉新興科技，又有環球視野。而她的能力能滿足我們對社群健康發展、社群多樣性、社群價值，以及活動成果的期望。

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2019-07
The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help to translation this article!  The Fairbank train robbery occurred on the night of February 15, 1900, when some bandits attempted to hold up a Wells Fargo express car at the town of Fairbank, Arizona. Although it was thwarted by Jeff Milton, who managed to kill "Three Fingered Jack" Dunlop in an exchange of gunfire, the train robbery was unique for being one of the few to have occurred in a public place and was also one of the last during the Old West period. (Please update the interwiki links on Wikidata of your language version of the article after each week's translation is finished so that all languages are linked to each other.)

Growth team updates #5
Welcome to the fifth newsletter for the new Growth team!
The Growth team's objective is to work on software changes that help retain new contributors in mid-size Wikimedia projects.
New projects for discussion
We began the "Personalized first day" project with the welcome survey so that we could gather information about what newcomers are trying to accomplish. The next step is to use that information to create experiences that help the newcomers accomplish their goal – actually personalizing their first day. We asked for community thoughts in the previous newsletter, and after discussing with community members and amongst our team, we are now planning two projects as next steps: "engagement emails" and "newcomer homepage".
- Engagement emails: this project was first discussed positively by community members here back in September 2018, and the team how has bandwidth to pursue it. The idea is that newcomers who leave the wiki don't get encouraged to return to the wiki and edit. We can engage them through emails that send them the specific information they need to be successful – such as contact from a mentor, the impact of their edits, or task recommendations. Please read over the project page, and comment on its discussion page with any ideas, questions, or concerns. Do you think this is a good idea? Where could we go wrong?
- Newcomer homepage: we developed the idea for this project after analyzing the data from the welcome survey and EditorJourney datasets. We saw that many newcomers seem to be looking for a place to get started – a place that collects their past work, options for future work, and ways to learn more. We can build this place, and it can connect to the engagement emails. The content of both could be guided by what newcomers say they need during their welcome survey, and contain things like contact from a mentor, impact of their edits, or task recommendations. Please read over the project page, and comment on its discussion page with any ideas, questions, or concerns. Do you think this is a good idea? Where could we go wrong?
Initial reports on newcomer activity
We have published initial reports on each of the team's first two projects. These reports give the basic numbers from each project, and there are many more questions we will continue to answer in future reports. We're excited about these initial findings. They have already helped us define and design parts of our future projects.
- Welcome survey: the initial report on welcome survey responses is available here. Some of the main findings:
- Most users respond to the survey, giving it high response rates of 67% and 62% in Czech and Korean Wikipedias, respectively.
- The survey does not cause newcomers to be less likely to edit.
- The most common reason for creating an account in Korean Wikipedia is to read articles—not for editing—with 29% of Korean users giving that responses.
- Large numbers of respondents said they are interested in being contacted to get help with editing: 36% in Czech and 53% in Korean.
- Understanding first day: the initial report on what newcomers do on their first day is available here. Some of the main findings:
- Large numbers of users view help or policy pages on their first day: 42% in Czech and 28% in Korean.
- Large numbers of users view their own User or User Talk page on their first day: 34% in Czech and 39% in Korean.
- A majority of new users open an editor on their first day – but about a quarter of them do not go on to save an edit during that time.
Help panel deployment
The help panel was deployed in Czech and Korean Wikipedias on January 10. Over the past four weeks:
- About 400 newcomers in each wiki have seen the help panel button.
- About 20% of them open up the help panel.
- About 50% of those who open it up click on one of the links.
- About 5% of Czech users ask questions, and about 1% of Korean users ask questions.
We think that the 20% open rate and 50% click rate are strong numbers, showing that a lot of people are looking for help, and many want to help themselves by looking at help pages. The somewhat lower numbers of asking questions (especially in Korean Wikipedia) has caused us to consider new features to allow people to help themselves. We're going to be adding a search bar to the help panel next, which will allow users to type a search that only looks for pages in the Help and Wikipedia namespaces.
How to create a good feedback page?
What is the way to built a good help page? What blocks you when writing an help page? Your replies will help to create better help contents to newcomers, that would be used on Help panel.

《求聞》社論：《牆外百科牆裡人》：缺少中國大陸觀點，維基百科將會怎樣
近期，有人提醒筆者，端傳媒上新發出了一篇文章——《牆外百科牆裡人：中國大陸的維基編輯們》（下簡稱《牆》），裡面介紹了中國大陸維基百科社群的一些現狀。在讀完這篇文章後，筆者對外人眼中的中文維基百科社群有了更深的理解，同時也更加深入地思考了這個社群的本質。
《牆》採編於2018年7月至8月，該文的記者通過實地探訪深圳維基聚會的方式獲得了部分素材，又通過站內觀察、維基媒體編輯部群組內的採訪等多種流程，獲得了一些資料。《牆》展示的中國大陸社群雖然只是這個社群的冰山一角，然而其提供的視角，卻是一個許多來自港澳台乃至新馬的維基百科編者很少主動接觸的……

《求聞》快訊：基金會任命賈尼恩·尤澤爾為新首席運營官
【基金會網站2月12日消息】題：維基媒體基金會任命賈尼恩·尤澤爾為首席運營官
維基媒體基金會宣布，正式任命賈尼恩·尤澤爾為首席運營官。賈尼恩曾在通用電氣工作十六年，之後加入了維基媒體基金會。在此期間，她作為通用電氣的女性技術領袖，與全球的CEO們協同工作，致力於使通用電氣這家擁有三十萬員工的跨國科技公司的技術崗位的女性員工數量有所增長。

《求聞》快訊：2019年瑞典Wikimania補助金申請已經開放
【《求聞》北京2月16日訊】一年一度的維基媒體國際會議（Wikimania）補助金申請自2019年2月15日起開放申請，並於一個月後的3月15日協調世界時23時59分（北京時間3月16日上午7時59分）結束。
今年瑞典斯德哥爾摩年會的補助金申請開放得比往年要晚。去年南非年會的申請早在前一年的12月15日就已經開始，但今年直到2月才開始。
在3月15日申請結束後，基金會有關人員會對申請者進行第一階段的初選。初選將於3月中旬結束，申請者則將在3月底到4月初收到初選結果。初選將篩選出明顯不符合申請條件、惡作劇的申請。之後，第二階段篩選將由一組專門負責補助金的委員會進行。第二階段主要考察申請者在維基媒體計劃上的貢獻。最後敲定的名單將在4到5月發布。
申請表已經被翻譯成了簡體中文。
《求聞》專題關注：維基共享資源的多語言說明文字
2019年1月，維基共享資源上線了多語言說明文字功能，這也是維基共享資源結構化數據計劃中首先上線的一部分。
維基共享資源的結構化數據計劃啟動於2017年。受益於艾爾弗·斯隆基金的捐款，這個項目得以推進。將現有的文件描述轉化為結構化的數據，其優勢是顯而易見的。結構化的數據在使得文件信息易於整理、易於開發者和合作方的對接的同時，也讓多語言的分類、描述成為了可能，利用結構化數據生成的元數據也更加有利於文件的檢索和存取。

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2019-08
The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help to translation this article!  Between 1883 and 1906 Tierra del Fuego experienced a gold rush attracting a large number of Chileans, Argentines and Europeans to the archipelago, including a large number of Dalmatians. The gold rush led to the formation of the first towns in the archipelago and fueled economic growth in Punta Arenas. After the gold rush was over, most gold diggers left the archipelago, while the remaining settlers engaged in sheep farming and fishing. Indigenous Selk'nam populations declined sharply during the rush. (Please update the interwiki links on Wikidata of your language version of the article after each week's translation is finished so that all languages are linked to each other.)

《求聞》快訊：Tigerzeng當選中文維基百科管理員；香港維基編者計劃於2月24日舉行聚會
【《求聞》北京2月19日訊】用戶Tigerzeng的管理員投票在經過了15天後，以49票支持對1票反對、支持率達98%的高票通過。Tigerzeng的投票是2019年通過的第一個管理員投票。
【《求聞》廣東深圳2月19日訊】香港維基人定於2月24日下午2時至6時在九龍灣Megabox舉辦線下聚會活動。本次聚會由用戶春卷柯南和1233組織。組織者說，聚會將討論「維基媒體項目社群、站務、編輯等事項」。
這是在香港舉辦的第119次聚會。前次聚會在去年11月舉辦，以亞洲月為主題。
《求聞》專題關注：中國的大江大河——中國大陸編輯們的方志研究
「只要沿着茲獨暗河的方向，就能到達精絕古城。」這是小說《鬼吹燈之精絕古城》中主角Shirley楊的父親筆記中記錄的關鍵線索。歷史上沒有茲獨暗河，但是精絕國卻真實存在過。神話小說並非是虛空杜撰的內容，也絕非歷史虛無主義的產物；相反，恰恰是因為蘊含着豐富的歷史與文化淵源，讓它在眾多作品中脫穎而出。此書及之後的電視劇也在中國掀起了民眾對古蹟遺址及歷史文化的瘋狂追逐。而在維基百科中，有大批中國大陸編輯在默默地為中國地方古蹟遺產、歷史文化進行着辛苦卓絕的創作和整理。我們恪守着編輯的底線，維護着一個百科全書應有的尊嚴與價值。

《求聞》快訊：中文-烏爾都語協作計劃3月1日開始
【《求聞》北京2月21日訊】昨日，醞釀兩個多月的中文-烏爾都語協作計劃敲定舉辦日期，並向先前登記的有意向者推送通告。通告寫道，中文-烏爾都語協作計劃將在3月1日開始，至4月15日結束。
這一協作計劃在元維基的頁面中稱，「雙方志願者將會編寫對方社群相關歷史、文化等內容的條目，以期增進百科質素及兩語種維基人之間的友誼」。活動中，只有在中文維基百科創建巴基斯坦和印度相關的條目，以及在烏爾都語維基百科創建中國大陸、香港、澳門、台灣和新加坡相關的條目才作數。而擴充已有條目等其他的改進不算作活動的一部分。其他的要求比較類似DYK（「你知道嗎」）的標準。活動的形式則類似「動員令」「亞洲月」等活動，是「編輯松」（edit-a-thon），考驗在一定時間內創建擴充條目的數量；但與涵蓋所有主題的動員令、涵蓋亞洲相關條目的亞洲月相比較下，本次活動的主題更明確。活動不設任何獎品。

We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis, whatever their experience, their skills or their devices.
We are looking for input from as many different parts of the Wikimedia community as possible. It will come from multiple projects, in multiple languages, and with multiple perspectives.
We are currently planning the consultation. We need your help.
We need volunteers to help talk to their communities or user groups.
You can help by hosting a discussion at your wiki. Here's what to do:
- First, sign up your group here.
- Next, create a page (or a section on a Village pump, or an e-mail thread – whatever is natural for your group) to collect information from other people in your group. This is not a vote or decision-making discussion: we are just collecting feedback.
- Then ask people what they think about communication processes. We want to hear stories and other information about how people communicate with each other on and off wiki. Please consider asking these five questions:
- When you want to discuss a topic with your community, what tools work for you, and what problems block you?
- What about talk pages works for newcomers, and what blocks them?
- What do others struggle with in your community about talk pages?
- What do you wish you could do on talk pages, but can't due to the technical limitations?
- What are the important aspects of a "wiki discussion"?
- Finally, please go to Talk pages consultation 2019 on Mediawiki.org and report what you learned from your group. Please include links if the discussion is available to the public.
You can also help build the list of the many different ways people talk to each other.
Not all groups active on wikis or around wikis use the same way to discuss things: it can happen on wiki, on social networks, through external tools... Tell us how your group communicates.
You can read more about the overall process on mediawiki.org. If you have questions or ideas, you can leave feedback about the consultation process in the language you prefer.
Thank you! We're looking forward to talking with you.

去年中文維基百科所有的用戶查核員都被基金會擼掉了，當時的說法是因為「安全原因」但具體是什麼「無可奉告」，現在快要一年了，究竟是什麼原因有進一步消息了嗎？--侧耳倾听 2019年2月23日 (六) 14:53 (UTC)
- 就是給中維管理員一點體面才沒有太過坦白，何苦又要自揭瘡疤，真正原因相信大家都心中有數。—以上未簽名的留言由61.239.92.57（對話）於2019年2月23日 (六) 15:15 (UTC)加入。
