Johann Blum oder Blohm oder Blohme?[Bornkood ännern]
Ik will en Artikel schrieven (an un for sik bloß oversetten) över den Bremer Medaillenmaker Johann Blum. In de düütsche Biographie steiht to lesen, as Naamvarianten geev dat de Formen Johan Blum un Johann Blohm (https://www.deutsche-biographie.de/pnd1033935425.html). In de hoochdüütsche WP steht, sien Vadder weer Cordt Blohme ween. Nu is dat sachs good, wenn ik dat Lemma unner den plattdüütschen Naam setten dö, oder? Beklannt is he natürlich meist unner de hoochdüütsche Form. Man up de plattdüütsche WP scholl doch woll de plattdüütsche Naam stahn. Man wenn he sülms ok unner Johann Blohm bekannt is un sien Vadder Cordt Blohme heten hett (ohn Apokoop, as meist in Bremen), wie schall denn dat Lemma heten: Johann Blohme oder Johann Blohm? Oder hefft Ji dor noch en ganz egene Meenung to? --Bolingbroke2 ✍ 18:28, 5. Mär 2021 (CET)
- Plattdüütschen Naam is op jeden Fall richtig. Mit oder ahn e, dor will ik mi nich fastleggen. Normalerwies de Form, de de Person sülvs bruukt oder alternativ de, för de wi en Nawies hebbt. Wenn Johann sik also sülvs Blohm nöömt hett, denn harr ik düsse Form vörtagen. Aver verkehrt is "Blohme" wiss ok nich. Sowat mööt wi bi jede enkelte Person nee bekieken un denn na de Biografie un de nawiesten Formen gahn. Bi’n Medalljenmaker weet wi nu nich so besünners veel över em. Söök di also een Form ut, legg den Artikel un en Redirect an, schriev in’n Artikel rin, dat de Naam in verscheden Formen vörkummt, un denn köönt wi jümmer noch schuven, wenn in en oolt Archiv en Text opdükert, de för en annere Form sprickt. --::Slomox:: >< 15:37, 6.

Universal Code of Conduct – 2021 consultations[Bornkood ännern]
Universal Code of Conduct Phase 2[Bornkood ännern]
Hilf bitte mit, in deine Sprache zu übersetzen
The Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) provides a universal baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire Wikimedia movement and all its projects. The project is currently in Phase 2, outlining clear enforcement pathways. You can read more about the whole project on its project page.
Drafting Committee: Call for applications[Bornkood ännern]
The Wikimedia Foundation is recruiting volunteers to join a committee to draft how to make the code enforceable. Volunteers on the committee will commit between 2 and 6 hours per week from late April through July and again in October and November. It is important that the committee be diverse and inclusive, and have a range of experiences, including both experienced users and newcomers, and those who have received or responded to, as well as those who have been falsely accused of harassment.
To apply and learn more about the process, see Universal Code of Conduct/Drafting committee.
2021 community consultations: Notice and call for volunteers / translators[Bornkood ännern]
From 5 April – 5 May 2021 there will be conversations on many Wikimedia projects about how to enforce the UCoC. We are looking for volunteers to translate key material, as well as to help host consultations on their own languages or projects using suggested key questions. If you are interested in volunteering for either of these roles, please contact us in whatever language you are most comfortable.
To learn more about this work and other conversations taking place, see Universal Code of Conduct/2021 consultations.

Frage[Bornkood ännern]
Hallo, ich komme aus der bairischen Wiki und hätte eine Frage zu der Schreibweise vom Plattdeutschen... Die Wortendungen mit -en, wie z. Bsp. maaken, sprecht ihr die mit -en aus, oder mit -n, also maakn? Ich frage deswegen, weil ich mir schon lange Zeit den Kopf zerbreche, wie ich dieses Problem im bairischen lösen könnte. Für mich schaut die Schreibweise mit -n im bairischen einfach hässlich aus (mochn, laffn, kaffn) und schreibe deswegen mochen, laffen, kaffen usw. obwohl man das nicht so auspricht. Vielen Dank für die Rückmeldungen --Mucalexx ✍ 17:01, 10. Apr. 2021 (CEST)
- Moin! Ich kann nicht für alle Dialekte sprechen, aber für einen großen Teil der Dialekte des Plattdeutschen dürfte gelten, dass die zweite Silbe nicht vollvokalisch ausgesprochen wird. Also maakn. Allerdings gilt das ja sogar für das Standarddeutsche. de:wikt:machen hat folgende IPA-Schreibweise: [ˈmaxn̩].
- Betonen möchte ich, dass ich damit auf keinen Fall Stellung beziehe, wie es im Bairischen geschrieben werden müsste. --::Slomox:: >< 10:50, 12. Apr. 2021 (CEST)
Line numbering coming soon to all wikis[Bornkood ännern]
From April 15, you can enable line numbering in some wikitext editors - for now in the template namespace, coming to more namespaces soon. This will make it easier to detect line breaks and to refer to a particular line in discussions. These numbers will be shown if you enable the syntax highlighting feature (CodeMirror extension), which is supported in the 2010 and 2017 wikitext editors.
More information can be found on this project page. Everyone is invited to test the feature, and to give feedback on this talk page.

Suggested Values[Bornkood ännern]
From April 29, it will be possible to suggest values for parameters in templates. Suggested values can be added to TemplateData and will then be shown as a drop-down list in VisualEditor. This allows template users to quickly select an appropriate value. This way, it prevents potential errors and reduces the effort needed to fill the template with values. It will still be possible to fill in values other than the suggested ones.
More information, including the supported parameter types and how to create suggested values: [1] [2]. Everyone is invited to test the feature, and to give feedback on this talk page.

Editing news 2021 #2[Bornkood ännern]
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of the Reply Tool. The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped newer editors communicate on wiki. The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor.
The key results were:
- Newer editors who had automatic ("default on") access to the Reply tool were more likely to post a comment on a talk page.
- The comments that newer editors made with the Reply Tool were also less likely to be reverted than the comments that newer editors made with page editing.
These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful.
Looking ahead
The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months. This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.
The next step is to resolve a technical challenge. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the Wikipedias that participated in the study. After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis.
You can turn on "Diskussions-Werkzeuge" in Beta Features now. After you get the Reply tool, you can change your preferences at any time in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion.

Server switch[Bornkood ännern]
Read this message in another language • Hilf bitte mit, in deine Sprache zu übersetzen
The Wikimedia Foundation tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers. This will make sure that Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.
Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop while the switch is made. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.
You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.
- You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Tuesday, 29 June 2021. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (07:00 PDT, 10:00 EDT, 15:00 WEST/BST, 16:00 CEST, 19:30 IST, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Wednesday 30 June).
- If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.
Other effects:
- Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped. Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped.
- There will be code freezes for the week of June 28. Non-essential code deployments will not happen.

Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election has come to an end[Bornkood ännern]
Thank you for participating in the 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election! Voting closed August 31 at 23:59. The official data, including the four most voted candidates, will be announced as soon as the Elections Committee completes their review of the ballots. The official announcement of the new trustees appointed will happen later, once the selected candidates have been confirmed by the Board.
6,946 community members from 216 wiki projects have voted. This makes 10.2% global participation, 1.1% higher than in the last Board elections. In 2017, 5167 people from 202 wiki projects cast their vote. A full analysis is planned to be published in a few days when the confirmed results are announced. In the meantime, you can check the data produced during the election.
Diversity was an important goal with these elections. Messages about the Board election were translated into 61 languages. This outreach worked well. There were 70 communities with eligible voters voting in this election for the first time. With your help, next year’s Board of Trustees election will be even better.

The 2022 Community Wishlist Survey will happen in January[Bornkood ännern]
Hello everyone,
We hope all of you are as well and safe as possible during these trying times! We wanted to share some news about a change to the Community Wishlist Survey 2022. We would like to hear your opinions as well.
Summary:
We will be running the Community Wishlist Survey 2022 in January 2022. We need more time to work on the 2021 wishes. We also need time to prepare some changes to the Wishlist 2022. In the meantime, you can use a dedicated sandbox to leave early ideas for the 2022 wishes.
Proposing and wish-fulfillment will happen during the same year[Bornkood ännern]
In the past, the Community Tech team has run the Community Wishlist Survey for the following year in November of the prior year. For example, we ran the Wishlist for 2021 in November 2020. That worked well a few years ago. At that time, we used to start working on the Wishlist soon after the results of the voting were published.
However, in 2021, there was a delay between the voting and the time when we could start working on the new wishes. Until July 2021, we were working on wishes from the Wishlist for 2020.
We hope having the Wishlist 2022 in January 2022 will be more intuitive. This will also give us time to fulfill more wishes from the 2021 Wishlist.
Encouraging wider participation from historically excluded communities[Bornkood ännern]
We are thinking how to make the Wishlist easier to participate in. We want to support more translations, and encourage under-resourced communities to be more active. We would like to have some time to make these changes.
A new space to talk to us about priorities and wishes not granted yet[Bornkood ännern]
We will have gone 365 days without a Wishlist. We encourage you to approach us. We hope to hear from you in the talk page, but we also hope to see you at our bi-monthly Talk to Us meetings! These will be hosted at two different times friendly to time zones around the globe.
We will begin our first meeting September 15th at 23:00 UTC. More details about the agenda and format coming soon!
Brainstorm and draft proposals before the proposal phase[Bornkood ännern]
If you have early ideas for wishes, you can use the new Community Wishlist Survey sandbox. This way, you will not forget about these before January 2022. You will be able to come back and refine your ideas. Remember, edits in the sandbox don't count as wishes!
Feedback[Bornkood ännern]
- What should we do to improve the Wishlist pages?
- How would you like to use our new sandbox?
- What, if any, risks do you foresee in our decision to change the date of the Wishlist 2022?
- What will help more people participate in the Wishlist 2022?
Answer on the talk page (in any language you prefer) or at our Talk to Us meetings.

Server switch[Bornkood ännern]

The Wikimedia Foundation tests the switch between its first and secondary data centers. This will make sure that Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.
They will switch all traffic back to the primary data center on Tuesday, 14 September 2021.
Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop while the switch is made. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.
You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.
- You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Tuesday, 14 September 2021. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (07:00 PDT, 10:00 EDT, 15:00 WEST/BST, 16:00 CEST, 19:30 IST, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Wednesday, 15 September).
- If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.
Other effects:
- Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped. Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped.
- We expect the code deployments to happen as any other week. However, some case-by-case code freezes could punctually happen if the operation require them afterwards.
