Please accept our apologies for cross-posting this message. This message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki.
On behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Elections Committee, I am pleased to announce that self-nominations are being accepted for the 2017 Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees Elections.
The Board of Trustees (Board) is the decision-making body that is ultimately responsible for the long-term sustainability of the Wikimedia Foundation, so we value wide input into its selection. More information about this role can be found on Meta-Wiki. Please read the letter from the Board of Trustees calling for candidates.
The candidacy submission phase will last from April 7 (00:00 UTC) to April 20 (23:59 UTC).
We will also be accepting questions to ask the candidates from April 7 to April 20. You can submit your questions on Meta-Wiki.
Once the questions submission period has ended on April 20, the Elections Committee will then collate the questions for the candidates to respond to beginning on April 21.
The goal of this process is to fill the three community-selected seats on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. The election results will be used by the Board itself to select its new members.
The full schedule for the Board elections is as follows. All dates are inclusive, that is, from the beginning of the first day (UTC) to the end of the last.
- April 7 (00:00 UTC) – April 20 (23:59 UTC) – Board nominations
- April 7 – April 20 – Board candidates questions submission period
- April 21 – April 30 – Board candidates answer questions
- May 1 – May 14 – Board voting period
- May 15–19 – Board vote checking
- May 20 – Board result announcement goal
In addition to the Board elections, we will also soon be holding elections for the following roles:
- Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC)
- There are five positions being filled. More information about this election will be available on Meta-Wiki.
- Funds Dissemination Committee Ombudsperson (Ombuds)
- One position is being filled. More information about this election will be available on Meta-Wiki.
Please note that this year the Board of Trustees elections will be held before the FDC and Ombuds elections. Candidates who are not elected to the Board are explicitly permitted and encouraged to submit themselves as candidates to the FDC or Ombuds positions after the results of the Board elections are announced.
More information on this year's elections can be found on Meta-Wiki. Any questions related to the election can be posted on the election talk page on Meta-Wiki, or sent to the election committee's mailing list, board-elections.

The Wikimedia Foundation will be testing its secondary data center in Dallas. 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 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 secondary data center on Wednesday, 19 April 2017. On Wednesday, 3 May 2017, 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 20 to 30 minutes on Wednesday, 19 April and Wednesday, 3 May. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Thursday 20 April and Thursday 4 May).
- 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 weeks of 17 April 2017 and 1 May 2017. Non-essential code deployments will not happen.
This project may be postponed if necessary. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this. Please share this information with your community. /User:Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk)

Cognate e ligações automáticas entre línguas
Olá a todos,
A partir de 24 de abril, um novo sistema para ligações entre línguas vai ser instalado em todos os Wiktionaries. Essa extensão, Cognate, liga páginas com título igual automaticamente entre os Wiktionaries. Isso significa que essas ligações não mais terão que ser adicionados à mão nas páginas do domínio principal.
Essa nova funcionalidade foi desenvolvida pela Wikimedia Deutschland e forma um primeiro passo do projeto Wikidata para Wiktionary, mas não se baseia em Wikidata.
Para permitir que essa funcionalidade opere, todas ligações entre linguagens anteriores têm que ser removidas do wikitexto. Você pode fazer isso com um robô, como foi feito na Wikipédia no passado. Se você deixar as ligações, elas vão substituir as ligações automáticas.
Durante o desenvolvimento, nos tivemos muitas discussões com os editores do Wiktionary para entender as suas necessidades, mas é possível que algumas ligações automáticas não funcionem como esperado. Se você encontrar erros ou tem sugestões para melhoramentos, sinta-se livre para criar um sub-task em Phabricator ou adicionar uma mensagem nessa página de discussão.
Obrigado, --Lea Lacroix (WMDE) (Discussão) 07h38min de 13 de abril de 2017 (UTC)
- Viva! Que bom que está em andamento essa automatização e centralização dos interwikis. Pelo que vi, @HydrizBot já está fazendo a remoção dos interwikis. --Luan (Discussão) 17h58min de 27 de abril de 2017 (UTC)
Dúvida não respondida em Ajuda:Perguntas frequentes
Boa tarde. A alguns anos, encontrei uma aplicação para "smartphones" que correspondia ao wiktionaty e que permitia acceder de forma "offline". Actualmente está disponível? — o comentário precedente não foi assinado por 2001:8A0:E506:5E01:D822:DF6:8BCD:5282 (discussão • contrib.)
