Proposal to enable an experimental open source machine translation system for Assameseসম্পাদনা কৰকContent translation has been used already by many communities to translate more than half a million Wikipedia articles, and we want to help communities with potential to grow by using translation more. We propose to enable in Content Translation experimental support for a basic machine translation system for Assamese that could improve over time with the help of the community. Backgroundসম্পাদনা কৰকFor some languages, Content translation offers Machine Translation as a starting point for users to edit and improve. In addition, the tool provides mechanisms to encourage the creation of good quality content, preventing the publication of lightly edited machine translations. As a result, the translations produced with the tool are less likely to be deleted than the articles started from scratch. Unfortunately, Assamese is not supported by the translation services integrated in the tool such as Apertium, Google or Yandex. This requires editors to write their translations from scratch. Proposalসম্পাদনা কৰকWe want to propose the integration of OpusMT, an Open source Neural Machine Translation system that supports the English-Assamese language pair (you can try the translation engine in this example website). Although the translation service is based on MarianMT, a powerful neural network system, the quality of the final translations heavily depends on the availability of translation data which is limited for Assamese at the moment. This means that:
We believe that this approach will help the less-supported languages over time. We want to check if this plan sounds good with the Assamese community, and encourage Assamese editors to translate Wikipedia articles with the tool. In this way, your translations not only help expand the knowledge available in your language, but also become a way to improve the open source machine translation service that can be used inside and outside Wikipedia. Note that the usage of OpusMT machine translation is optional and editors are free to translate without using such services. In order to facilitate access to the tool we also plan to enable Content translation by default on Assamese Wikipedia. That will make it easy for users to discover the tool through several entry points. However, users not interested in translation will still be able to disable it from their preferences. Impactসম্পাদনা কৰকOn Assamese Wikipedia, 198 articles have been created with Content Translation since 2015 (compared to the 6.7 thousand articles created from scratch in the same period). So we don’t expect a high volume of new content as an immediate result of this experiment. In any case, we want to encourage editors to report any issues they find with the tool while creating or reviewing translations. In order to make sure that the content created using the new machine translation system results in a productive contribution, we’ll keep track of the translations created with the tool and their deletion ratios. In addition, we’ll set stricter limits on machine translation to enforce more intensive editing of the initial low quality machine translation. We want to make sure the expectations are clear before enabling the new system. Please share your questions and your thoughts on the idea. We’ll proceed only if there are no major concerns from the community. Thanks! --Pginer-WMF (talk) 08:51, 17 January 2020 (ইউ.টি.চি.)

Considering that I developed a semi-automated bot called TextCleanerBot to correct some usual mistakes such as replacing Bengali ৰ with Assamese ৰ, punctuation related mistakes, and some other Assamese grammatical errors. I am thankful to Mridul Kumar Sharmah for letting me use his database for Lachit pad, an online sanitizer for Assamese texts. Earlier there used to be a bot called Ucodebot, which used to replace Bengali ৰ with Assamese ৰ, but unfortunately, that is not active anymore. The idea behind having a locally run bot is that we as a community can keep updating the database as needed. I have already done some test runs and results are mostly positive with some fluke here and there. I will constantly be improving them as we go. Please provide your feedback whether you support or oppose such bot in Assamese Wikipedia. If you see any errors made by the bot, report them as well. --SlowPhoton (talk) 07:41, 14 May 2020 (ইউ.টি.চি.) সমৰ্থন কৰোঁ / Supportসম্পাদনা কৰক

Improving the translation support for the Assamese Wikipediaসম্পাদনা কৰকHi! Content translation has been successful in supporting the translation process on many Wikipedia communities, and we want to help additional wikis with potential to grow using translation as part of a new initiative. Content translation facilitates the creation of Wikipedia articles by translating content from other languages. It has been used already to create more than half a million articles. In addition, the tool provides mechanisms to encourage the creation of good quality content, preventing the publication of lightly edited machine translations. In general, our analysis shows that the translations produced are less likely to be deleted than the articles started from scratch. Assamese Wikipedia editors have used Content translation to create more than three hundred articles. Given the size of the editing community, we think that there is potential to use translation to create more articles, expand existing ones, and attract new editors that learn how to make productive edits. Translation can help the community to reduce the language gap with other languages and grow the number of editors in a sustainable way. In order to achieve this goal, we want to collaborate with you to make Content translation more visible in the Assamese Wikipedia and support new ways to translate. As a first step, during the next weeks we plan to enable Content translation by default on the Assamese Wikipedia. That will make it easy for users to discover the tool through several entry points. However, users not interested in translation will still be able to disable it from their preferences. Please feel free to share any comment in this conversation thread. Thanks! --Amir E.

Wikimedia Foundation Community Board seats: Call for feedback meetingসম্পাদনা কৰকThe Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees is organizing a call for feedback about community selection processes[1] between February 1 and March 14. While the Wikimedia Foundation and the movement have grown about five times in the past ten years, the Board’s structure and processes have remained basically the same. As the Board is designed today, we have a problem of capacity, performance, and lack of representation of the movement’s diversity. Direct elections tend to favor candidates from the leading language communities, regardless of how relevant their skills and experience might be in serving as a Board member, or contributing to the ability of the Board to perform its specific responsibilities. It is also a fact that the current processes have favored volunteers from North America and Western Europe. As a matter of fact, there had only been one member who served on the Board, from South Asia, in more than fifteen years of history. In the upcoming months, we need to renew three community seats and appoint three more community members in the new seats. This call for feedback is to see what processes can we all collaboratively design to promote and choose candidates that represent our movement and are prepared with the experience, skills, and insight to perform as trustees? In this regard, it would be good to have a community discussion to discuss the proposed ideas and share our thoughts, give feedback and contribute to the process. To discuss this, you are invited to a community meeting that is being organized on March 12 from 8 pm to 10 pm, and the meeting link to join is https://meet.google.com/umc-attq-kdt. You can add this meeting to your Google Calendar by clicking here[2]. Please ping me if you have any questions. Thank you, --KCVelaga (WMF) (বাৰ্তা) 10:58, 8 March 2021 (ইউ.টি.চি.) Wikimania 2021: Individual Program Submissionsসম্পাদনা কৰক Dear all, Wikimania 2021 will be hosted virtually for the first time in the event's 15-year history. Since there is no in-person host, the event is being organized by a diverse group of Wikimedia volunteers that form the Core Organizing Team (COT) for Wikimania 2021. Event Program - Individuals or a group of individuals can submit their session proposals to be a part of the program. There will be translation support for sessions provided in a number of languages. See more information here. Below are some links to guide you through; Please note that the deadline for submission is 18th June 2021. Announcements- To keep up to date with the developments around Wikimania, the COT sends out weekly updates. You can view them in the Announcement section here. Office Hour - If you are left with questions, the COT will be hosting some office hours (in multiple languages), in multiple time-zones, to answer any programming questions that you might have. Details can be found here. Best regards, MediaWiki message delivery (বাৰ্তা) 04:18, 16 June 2021 (ইউ.টি.চি.)

(Source) 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:
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 "আলোচনা সঁজুলি" 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. |

We would like to inform you that we (User: Praveenky1589 and User: Nitesh Gill) have proposed a research project for Project Grant. The study will focus on analyzing gender-based differences in leadership of Indian Wikimedia communities. The purpose of the research project is to analyse the growth of projects under different leadership, reasons behind the difference in engagement, contribution and iterations of the project. It also aims to study- How male and female leadership impacts volunteer contribution and their retention? The output of events under different leadership and the future of projects and leaders. The study will be conducted on the last 5 years of online and offline activities. For knowing more about the project please visit the proposal page and share your valuable feedback and suggestions on the talk page. We look forward to refining it more following your valuable inputs and questions.

Universal Code of Conduct consultation on Assamese Wikipediaসম্পাদনা কৰকDear Assamese Wikipedia Community, I apologize for writing in English as my Assamese is too limited when comes to writing. But I want to thank you for your hard work to create the sum of all knowledge that is freely sharable to every single human being across the world. As our diverse community grows, we need a guideline that will help all of our work collectively and constructively where everyone feels safe, welcomed, and part of a team. That is why the Wikimedia movement is working on establishing a global behavior guideline called the Universal Code of Conduct, often referred to as UCoC. After the months-long policy consultation, we have prepared a policy. We are currently in the second phase of the consultation. During this round of consultation, we want to discuss the enforcement and implementation of this policy. We want to hear from the community on how this policy can be enforced on the Assamese community and what might be needed to do so. You can participate in the discussion here. We encourage you to express your opinion publicly. However, I understand that not everything can be discussed publicly so if you wish to share your opinion privately, you can do so by emailing me as well. Please let us know how you feel about the current UCoC draft. Let us know if anything directly contradicts with any behavioral or other policies you have on Assamese Wikipedia. Share your thoughts, ideas, and experiences that relate to UCoC, even if you are a newcomer. Tell us, what is important to you to make your stay more pleasant and safe. If you are an experienced user, let us know what needs to be improved so we can build a more friendly and cooperative space to increase editor engagement and retention of new users. Wikimedia projects are governed by all of you, regardless of where you come from, your involvement, or how new or experienced you are. So, it is you who needs to step up to ensure a safe, comfortable, and pleasant working environment. Thank you! Wikitanvir (WMF) (talk) 09:52, 11 February 2021 (ইউ.টি.চি.) Supportসম্পাদনা কৰক

A policy regarding the removal of "advanced rights" (administrator, bureaucrat, interface administrator, etc.) was adopted by global community consensus in 2013. According to this policy, the stewards are reviewing administrators' activity on all Wikimedia Foundation wikis with no inactivity policy. To the best of our knowledge, your wiki does not have a formal process for removing "advanced rights" from inactive accounts. This means that the stewards will take care of this according to the admin activity review. We have determined that the following users meet the inactivity criteria (no edits and no logged actions for more than 2 years):
These users will receive a notification soon, asking them to start a community discussion if they want to retain some or all of their rights. If the users do not respond, then their advanced rights will be removed by the stewards. However, if you as a community would like to create your own activity review process superseding the global one, want to make another decision about these inactive rights holders, or already have a policy that we missed, then please notify the stewards on Meta-Wiki so that we know not to proceed with the rights review on your wiki.

Call for feedback: WMF Community Board seats & Office hours tomorrowসম্পাদনা কৰক(sorry for posting in English) Dear Wikimedians, The Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees is organizing a call for feedback about community selection processes between February 1 and March 14. Below you will find the problem statement and various ideas from the Board to address it. We are offering multiple channels for questions and feedback. With the help of a team of community facilitators, we are organizing multiple conversations with multiple groups in multiple languages. During this call for feedback we publish weekly reports and we draft the final report that will be delivered to the Board. With the help of this report, the Board will approve the next steps to organize the selection of six community seats in the upcoming months. Three of these seats are due for renewal and three are new, recently approved. Participate in this call for feedback and help us form a more diverse and better performing Board of Trustees! Problems: While the Wikimedia Foundation and the movement have grown about five times in the past ten years, the Board’s structure and processes have remained basically the same. As the Board is designed today, we have a problem of capacity, performance, and lack of representation of the movement’s diversity. This problem was identified in the Board’s 2019 governance review, along with recommendations for how to address it. To solve the problem of capacity, we have agreed to increase the Board size to a maximum of 16 trustees (it was 10). Regarding performance and diversity, we have approved criteria to evaluate new Board candidates. What is missing is a process to promote community candidates that represent the diversity of our movement and have the skills and experience to perform well on the Board of a complex global organization. Our current processes to select individual volunteer and affiliate seats have some limitations. Direct elections tend to favor candidates from the leading language communities, regardless of how relevant their skills and experience might be in serving as a Board member, or contributing to the ability of the Board to perform its specific responsibilities. It is also a fact that the current processes have favored volunteers from North America and Western Europe. Meanwhile, our movement has grown larger and more complex, our technical and strategic needs have increased, and we have new and more difficult policy challenges around the globe. As well, our Movement Strategy recommendations urge us to increase our diversity and promote perspectives from other regions and other social backgrounds. In the upcoming months, we need to renew three community seats and appoint three more community members in the new seats. What process can we all design to promote and choose candidates that represent our movement and are prepared with the experience, skills, and insight to perform as trustees? Ideas: The Board has discussed several ideas to overcome the problems mentioned above. Some of these ideas could be taken and combined, and some discarded. Other ideas coming from the call for feedback could be considered as well. The ideas are:
Call for feedback: The call for feedback runs from February 1 until the end of March 14. We are looking for a broad representation of opinions. We are interested in the reasoning and the feelings behind your opinions. In a conversation like this one, details are important. We want to support good conversations where everyone can share and learn from others. We want to hear from those who understand Wikimedia governance well and are already active in movement conversations. We also want to hear from people who do not usually contribute to discussions. Especially those who are active in their own roles, topics, languages or regions, but usually not in, say, a call for feedback on Meta. You can participate by joining the Telegram chat group, and giving feedback on any of the talk pages on Meta-Wiki. We are welcoming the organisation of conversations in any language and in any channel. If you want us to organize a conversation or a meeting for your wiki project or your affiliate, please write to me. I will also reach out to communities and affiliates to soon have focused group discussions. An office hour is also happening tomorrow at 12 pm (UTC) to discuss this topic. Access link will be available 15 minutes before the scheduled time (please watch the office hour page for the link, and I will also share on mailing lists). In case you are not able to make it, please don't worry, there will be more discussions and meetings in the next few weeks. Regards, KCVelaga (WMF) 16:30, 1 February 2021 (ইউ.টি.চি.) Research Needs Assessment for Indian Language Wikimedia (ILW) Projectsসম্পাদনা কৰকDear All, The Access to Knowledge (A2K) team at CIS has been engaged with work on research on Indian language Wikimedia projects as part of the APG since 2019. This year, following up on our learnings from work so far, we are undertaking a needs assessment exercise to understand a) the awareness about research within Indian language Wikimedia communities, and identify existing projects if any, and b) to gather community inputs on knowledge gaps and priority areas of focus, and the role of research in addressing the same. We would therefore request interested community members to respond to the needs assessment questionnaire here:

Apart from improving the technicalities of the process, the Board is also keen on improving active participation from communities in the election process. During the last elections, Voter turnout in prior elections was about 10% globally. It was better in communities with volunteer election support. Some of those communities reached over 20% voter turnout. We know we can get more voters to help assess and promote the best candidates, but to do that, we need your help. We are looking for volunteers to serve as Election Volunteers. Election Volunteers should have a good understanding of their communities. The facilitation team sees Election Volunteers as doing the following:

On behalf of Wikimania 2021 Core Organizing Team Candidates from South Asia for 2021 Wikimedia Foundation Board Electionsসম্পাদনা কৰকDear Wikimedians, As you may be aware, the Wikimedia Foundation has started elections for community seats on the Board of Trustees. While previously there were three community seats on the Board, with the expansion of the Board to sixteen seats last year, community seats have been increased to eight, four of which are up for election this year. In the last fifteen years of the Board's history, there were only a few candidates from the South Asian region who participated in the elections, and hardly anyone from the community had a chance to serve on the Board. While there are several reasons for this, this time, the Board and WMF are very keen on encouraging and providing support to potential candidates from historically underrepresented regions. This is a good chance to change the historical problem of representation from the South Asian region in high-level governance structures. Ten days after the call for candidates began, there aren't any candidates from South Asia yet, there are still 10 days left! I would like to ask community members to encourage other community members, whom you think would be potential candidates for the Board. While the final decision is completely up to the person, it can be helpful to make sure that they are aware of the election and the call for candidates. Let me know if you need any information or support. Thank you, KCVelaga (WMF) 10:03, 19 June 2021 (ইউ.টি.চি.)

(Source) 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:
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 "আলোচনা সঁজুলি" 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.

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.

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 yearসম্পাদনা কৰকIn 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 communitiesসম্পাদনা কৰকWe are thinking how to make the Wishlist easier to participate in.

Universal Code of Conduct EDGR conversation hour for South Asiaসম্পাদনা কৰকDear Wikimedians, As you may already know, the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) provides a baseline of behaviour for collaboration on Wikimedia projects worldwide. Communities may add to this to develop policies that take account of local and cultural context while maintaining the criteria listed here as a minimum standard. The Wikimedia Foundation Board has ratified the policy in December 2020. The current round of conversations is around how the Universal Code of Conduct should be enforced across different Wikimedia platforms and spaces. This will include training of community members to address harassment, development of technical tools to report harassment, and different levels of handling UCoC violations, among other key areas. The conversation hour is an opportunity for community members from South Asia to discuss and provide their feedback, which will be passed on to the drafting committee. The details of the conversation hour are as follows:

Server switchসম্পাদনা কৰকRead this message in another language • অনুগ্ৰহ কৰি আপোনাৰ ভাষালৈ অনুবাদ কৰাত সহায় কৰক 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.
