Wikizine

Hi, I am w:nl:gebruiker:Walter of the dutch Wikipedia. I am writing you because your are listed as ambassador of your wiki. I have something to say that I think you will find useful and possibly others of your wiki also.

You know it is not easy for the members of a local wiki to be informed about what is going on in the higher levels of the Wikimedia family. This because of the language problem and the high level of fragmentation of places where you can find information.

I am now making a weekly news letter (Wikizine) that attempts to provide the news of the Wikimedia projects. The concept is to list only a very short description of the news an give the relevant url to the subject. I want it to be short, only give the news that is important for all projects. The target audience include the ambassadors. It is for people who are interested in what it going on outside there own wiki. I emphasize on the news that is practical-technical. The information comes form several "news"-pages on several wikis, the mailinglists and IRC. There will be news I can not discover. If you have news found somewhere or from you own wiki please let my know. wikizine AT wikipedia.be

I can only create one version in something that supposed to be English. I count on the readers to inform there local wiki about the news in there own language.

Wikizine is send by use of the mailinglist Announce-l. It is only used for this. So people can subscribe without being swamped by emails like the lists.

I hope that you and others of your wiki will subscribe to Wikizine and give feedback. So that Wikizine can become really a source where Wikimedians can find out what is going on. Greetings, w:nl:gebruiker:Walter PS: do not repond here. I will not see it.

Could it be mentioned that Elizabeth II is also queen of the UK and Australia?

comptines maori

Admirative de votre culture maori (et fan des All Blacks !), je recherche des chansons ou comptines pour mon fils "Enoha" qui a 7 mois ainsi qu'un livre ou dictionnaire imagé pour nous initier à la langue maori. Merci beaucoup pour votre aide,

Caro, From France

Racibórz

Hi. Can somebody write an (at least ;] ) short stub about my city (Racibórz) on your Wikipedia? Many thanks for anyone who could do that :) Olos88 15:40, 19 ліпеня 2009 (UTC)

BNZP work

I've recently completed some work importing articles from en:Wikipedia:WikiProject_Missing_encyclopedic_articles/NZ/Dictionary_of_New_Zealand_Biography into the English language wikipedia. I believe that the script I used will also work with the te reo Māori biographies in Te Ara to create stubs for Te mātāpuenga utukore. I would need some assistance from one or more reasonably active editor, both for linguistic tweaks and understand categories and similar. Alternatively, if a firefox/greasemonkey using editor was already active here, they could run the whole thing themselves based on my script, with technical assistance from me. Does this some like a useful suggestion?-Stuartyeates

Unfortunately, as far as I know there is no regular editor on this version of Wikipedia who has a sufficient understanding of Māori to help you at present.-gadfium (talk) 09:27, 20 Āperira 2012 (UTC)

Yes, I feared as much. But thought I'd offer in case someone was interested taking up the challenge. Stuartyeates (talk) 20:16, 20 Āperira 2012 (UTC)

Excuse me for not speaking Maori yet.

The time of the contest will include all October and any information you may need is right here.

Join in and good luck!

PS: We would be grateful if you could translate this note into Maori.

Kia ora

Kia ora, I'm an editor based in Otautahi Christchurch and one of the editors who put together the application for the Wikimedia User Group of Aotearoa New Zealand. I just want to let editors here know that they are very welcome to participate in the online meetups of Wikipedians in Aotearoa NZ - the next one is on Sunday 16 August: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Aotearoa_New_Zealand_Online/2#Agenda There are also regular in-person meetups in Christchurch and Wellington, if there are any editors in those cities.
