Nasosobrahan sa pagta-translate

Para sa akin, hindi na dapat i-translate ang mga Pangalang Pantangi. Pangalan ng mga tao 'yan e. (Maliban na lang kung bansa, ayos lang. Aleman, Pransiya, Biyetnam) Kanina lang nakita ko na pati "Confucianism" ay nakasalin din na "Konpusyanismo". Sobra na 'yan. Sa page naman ni Julius Caesar ay "Julio Caesar" ang nakalagay.

Pakilahad po ang ibig po ninyong sabihin sa pagiging "sobra" sa pagsasalin. Hindi po ba na ang mga salitang ito ay umiiral din sa leksikon ng wikang Tagalog/Filipino at may saysay din sa paggamit dito sa Wikipedia? --Sky Harbor ^(usapan) 15:03, 31 Marso 2016 (UTC)

Sky Harbor, nilahad ko na lahat ng sinabi kong sobra sa pagsasalin. Hindi naman dapat sinasalin ang mga pangalang pantangi (proper nouns). Kayâ sana maging "Julius Caesar" na ang page at hindi "Julio Caesar". Para 'to sa kaunlaran ng pag-aaral ng kasaysayan, 'wag nating guluhin sa pagsasalin ng mga pangalan ng historical figures. Gayon din sa Confucianismo, huwag nang gawing "Konpusyanismo" (pero ayos na ang tungkol dito, dahil in-edit ko na.) Leogregoryfordan (makipag-usap) 16:56, 31 Marso 2016 (UTC)

May mga pangngalang pantangi na talaga namang may salin sa Tagalog/Filipino eh. Tulad ni Hesus, o ni Papa Francisco, o ni Reyna Isabel II ng Espanya. Kung tutuusin, pati si Cesar, Tagalog din dahil ito ang ginagamit sa Biblia ("Kung gayo'y ibigay ninyo kay Cesar ang kay Cesar, at ang sa Dios ang sa Dios". Isa itong titulo, at dito ginagamit ang titulo bilang pantukoy kay Tiberio, ngunit akma rin ito kay Julio.). Hindi ito pagsasalin kung may umiiral nang halimbawa sa leksikon ng wika at maaaring ipagpatunay na ginagamit ito sa katutubong panitikan, at napakalinaw na sa napakaraming taong makasaysayan, may umiiral na silang pangalan sa Tagalog/Filipino at hindi lamang dapat tayong umaasa sa Ingles kung may akmang pangalan na ito sa katutubong wika na nagmula mula sa ibang wika, Espanyol man ito o iba. --Sky Harbor ^(usapan) 08:01, 1 Abril 2016 (UTC)

Oo, tama ka, meron talagang mga ginagamit na na mga salin ng pangalan sa FIlipino. Basta para sa akin mali na isalin ang "Julius Ceasar", specifically dahil hindi naman ito ginagamit sa mga aklat, kahit sa mga pang-K12, at hindi rin ito ginagamit ng karamihan sa mga táong nakakikilala sa kaniya. Nakakadagdag lang ito ng confusion. Leogregoryfordan (makipag-usap) 12:17, 1 Abril 2016 (UTC)

Ang ating bagong IRC channel: #wikipedia-tl

Kumusta Wikipedia! Napansin ko na wala tayong IRC channel, kaya ginawa ko na. Matatagpuan ito sa #wikipedia-tl. Sana po ay tulungan niyo po gawing maganda ang IRC channel na ito. Nilagay ko na ang wm-bot sa channel. Kung interesado po kayo maging isa sa mga admin ng wm-bot sa #wikipedia-tl, kausapin niyo ako sa Usapang tagagamit:Pokéfan95 o sa usapan ko sa Wikimedia Commons. Siguraduhing may rason kung bakit niyo po kailangan ang "admin" right. At dapat may sapat na kaalaman po kayo sa paggamit ng wm-bot. Salamat! Pokéfan95 (makipag-usap) 05:24, 12 Abril 2016 (UTC)

Server switch 2016

The Wikimedia Foundation will be testing its newest data center in Dallas. This will make sure 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 conduct a planned test. This test will show whether they can reliably switch from one data center 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 to the new data center on Tuesday, 19 April.
On Thursday, 21 April, they will switch back to the primary data center.

Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop during those two switches. 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 approximately 15 to 30 minutes on Tuesday, 19 April and Thursday, 21 April, starting at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT).

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 a code freeze for the week of 18 April.

No non-essential code deployments will take place.

This test was originally planned to take place on March 22. April 19th and 21st are the new dates. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. They will post any changes on that schedule. There will be more notifications about this. Please share this information with your community. /User:Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 21:07, 17 Abril 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia to the Moon

Hello! Sorry that this is in English only, but we are using village pump messaging in order to reach as many language communities as possible. Wrong page? Please fix it here.

This is an invitation to all Wikipedians: Wikimedia Deutschland has been given data space to include Wikipedia content in an upcoming mission to the Moon. (No joke!) We have launched a community discussion about how to do that, because we feel that this is for the global community of editors. Please, join the discussion on Meta-Wiki (and translate this invitation to your language community)! Best, Moon team at Wikimedia Deutschland 15:35, 21 Abril 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia to the Moon: voting has begun

Hello, after six weeks of community discussion about Wikipedia to the Moon, there are now 10 different proposals for content for the mission. Starting today, you can vote for them on Meta-Wiki, and decide what we will work on: a Wikipedia canon, different lists, the Moon in 300 languages, an astronomy editathon, featured articles, articles about technology, endangered things, or DNA-related topics. You can even vote against community involvement. Voting is open until 24 June. Sorry that this message is again in English only, but we are using village pumps to reach as many communities as possible, so that everyone knows they can vote. Best, Moon team at Wikimedia Deutschland 15:31, 10 Hunyo 2016 (UTC)

Compact Links coming soon to this wiki

Please help translate to your language

Screenshot of Compact Language Links interlanguage list

Hello, I wanted to give a heads up about an upcoming feature for this wiki which you may seen already in Tech News. Compact Language Links has been available as a beta-feature on all Wikimedia wikis since 2014. With compact language links enabled, users are shown a much shorter list of languages on the interlanguage link section of an article (see image). This will be enabled as a feature in the coming week for all users, which can be turned on or off using a preference setting. We look forward to your feedback and please do let us know if you have any questions. Details about Compact Language Links can be read in the project documentation.

Due to the large scale enablement of this feature, we have had to use MassMessage for this message and as a result it is only written in English. We will really appreciate if this message can be translated for other users of this wiki. The main announcement can also be translated on this page. Thank you.

Wikipedia to the Moon: invitation to edit

Three weeks ago, you were invited to vote on how to take Wikipedia articles to the Moon. Community voting is over and the winning idea is to send all ‘’featured articles and lists’’ to the Moon. This decision means that, starting today, Wikipedians from all language communities are warmly invited to intensively work on their best articles and lists, and submit them to Wikipedia to the Moon. The central site to coordinate between communities will be Meta-Wiki. You will find an overview and more information there. Hopefully, we will be able to represent as many languages as possible, to show Wikipedia’s diversity. Please feel kindly invited to edit on behalf of your community and tell us about your work on featured content!

Compact Language Links enabled in this wiki today

Please help translate to your language

Screenshot of Compact Language Links interlanguage list

Compact Language Links has been available as a beta-feature on all Wikimedia wikis since 2014. With compact language links enabled, users are shown a much shorter list of languages on the interlanguage link section of an article (see image). Based on several factors, this shorter list of languages is expected to be more relevant for them and valuable for finding similar content in a language known to them. More information about compact language links can be found in the documentation.

From today onwards, compact language links has been enabled as the default listing of interlanguage links on this wiki. However, using the button at the bottom, you will be able to see a longer list of all the languages the article has been written in. The setting for this compact list can be changed by using the checkbox under User Preferences -> Appearance -> Languages

The compact language links feature has been tested extensively by the Wikimedia Language team, which developed it. However, in case there are any problems or other feedback please let us know on the project talk page. It is to be noted that on some wikis the presence of an existing older gadget that was used for a similar purpose may cause an interference for compact language list. We would like to bring this to the attention of the admins of this wiki. Full details are on this phabricator ticket (in English).

Due to the large scale enablement of this feature, we have had to use MassMessage for this announcement and as a result it is only written in English. We will really appreciate if this message can be translated for other users of this wiki. Thank you.

Save/Publish

The Editing team is planning to change the name of the “Itala ang pahina” button to “Publish page” and “Publish changes”. “Publish page” will be used when you create a new page. “Publish changes” will be used when you change an existing page. The names will be consistent in all editing environments.[1][2]

This change will probably happen during the week of 30 August 2016. The change will be announced in Tech News when it happens.

If you are fluent in a language other than English, please check the status of translations at translatewiki.net for “Publish page” and “Publish changes”.

The main reason for this change is to avoid confusion for new editors. Repeated user research studies with new editors have shown that some new editors believed that “Itala ang pahina” would save a private copy of a new page in their accounts, rather than permanently publishing their changes on the web. It is important for this part of the user interface to be clear, since it is difficult to remove public information after it is published. We believe that the confusion caused by the “Itala ang pahina” button increases the workload for experienced editors, who have to clean up the information that people unintentionally disclose, and report it to the functionaries and stewards to suppress it. Clarifying what the button does will reduce this problem.

Beyond that, the goal is to make all the wikis and languages more consistent, and some wikis made this change many years ago. The Legal team at the Wikimedia Foundation supports this change. Making the edit interface easier to understand will make it easier to handle licensing and privacy questions that may arise.

Any help pages or other basic documentation about how to edit pages will also need to be updated, on-wiki and elsewhere. On wiki pages, you can use the wikitext codes {{int:Publishpage}} and {{int:Publishchanges}} to display the new labels in the user's preferred language. For the language settings in your account preferences, these wikitext codes produce “Publish page” and “Publish changes”.

Please share this news with community members who teach new editors and with others who may be interested.
