== Tetum localization for Whatredirectshere ==

Hi MF-Warburg, thank you very much for your translation of Whatredirectshere in Tetum! I've now uploaded it to http://tools.wikimedia.de/~tangotango/whatredirectshere.php?lang=tet, and it is available via that link and via the language selector that appears at the top of the tool. Please take a look and see if anything is amiss.

Also, as you might notice, some portions of the interface are not yet translated. This is because they are in a separate language file called "general", which is shared across all my tools. If possible, could you please translate this file too? The code for this file is:
<pre>
$lang['gen_error'] = 'Error';
$lang['gen_db-connect-error'] = 'Could not connect to database server (it may be down); Error was: ';
$lang['gen_db-select-error'] = 'Could not select database (The database you selected may be non-existent); Error was: ';
$lang['gen_welcome'] = 'Welcome';
$lang['gen_invalid_dbname'] = 'Patently invalid database name';

$lang['gen_nonexistent_wiki'] = 'The project you selected is either non-existent or is not replicated to the toolserver.';
$lang['gen_query_failed'] = 'The SQL query failed with the following error: ';
$lang['gen_query_failed_badrowcount'] = 'The SQL query did not return the correct number of rows.';
</pre>

Once again, thank you very, very much! - [[User:Tangotango|Tangotango]] 12:11, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
:Thank you so much for the translation! I've posted the general language file, as well as the new Whatredirectshere localization, to the toolserver. Please take a look to see if everything is as you accepted. Cheers, [[User:Tangotango|Tangotango]] 15:49, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

== Wikischliessungen ==

Hi, ich sehe mit Freuden, dass Du Dich auch an das Management der Proposals for Closing Projects machst. Wenn Du eine Diskussion fuer beendet erklaerst, erreichst Du ggf. die Schliessung, indem Du bei bugzilla.wikimedia.org einen entsprechenden Bugreport mit Link auf Closure proposal einreichst. Wobei die Wikis infolge dessen nicht geloescht sondern nur gelockt werden. Sieh auch zu, dass ggf. Spam vorher entfernt wird. Falls Du das alles schon weisst, entschuldige die Stoerung. In Hektik, --[[User:Johannes Rohr|Johannes Rohr]] 12:46, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

:Ja, weiß ich schon. [[User:MF-Warburg|MF-Warburg]]<small>([[:de:Benutzer Diskussion:MF-Warburg|de]])</small> 16:15, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

== In Inkubator verschieben. ==

Hi,

die Verschiebung in den Inkubator sollte nicht händisch erfolgen sondern über [[Special:Import]]. So wie Du es gemacht hast, gehen Versionsinformation verloren und die GFDL wird verletzt. Bitte reiche dazu einen Bugreport ein, siehe http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10519. Im Übrigen impliziert "verschieben", dass der Original-Artikel gelöscht wird, nicht bloß geblankt. --[[User:Johannes Rohr|Johannes Rohr]] 16:29, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

:Wieso, die Versionsgeschichte ist doch auf der Diskussionsseite der Incubatorseiten; so macht man das z. B. auch in Wikibooks, siehe [[:b:de:Hilfe:GFDL-Import]] --[[User:MF-Warburg|MF-Warburg]]<small>([[:de:Benutzer Diskussion:MF-Warburg|de]])</small> 17:57, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

==About Herero Wikipedia==
Hi MF-Warburg! I want to ask, what happened to the Herero wiki? I known that maybe is a good idea to move some articles to the incubator, it's ok; but these days I tried to access to the Herero Incubator and I can't, the link is not funtional. Please, see what is happening? =s --[[User:Kanon6917|Kanon6917]] 17:10, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
:Hello Kanon6917! The Herero Test-WP will be created soon [[incubator:Wp/hz]] will be the location, but there are saome plroblems, but you can expect the Test-wp until 3 days, I think. Best regards [[User:MF-Warburg|MF-Warburg]]<small>([[:de:Benutzer Diskussion:MF-Warburg|de]])</small> 17:30, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
*Hello! About the [[incubator:Wp/hz]], how can I see all the pages?, I tried to access to some pages that existed in the Herero wikipedia, but I can't. I don't understand what happened to the project; is not the same as before the moved =s.--[[User:Kanon6917|Kanon6917]] 23:53, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
:go to [[:incubator:Special:Prefixindex/Wp/hz]]. there you can see all the pages. Note that in Incubator all Herero Wikipedia page titles start with Wp/hz.

== [[Proposals for closing projects/Closure of Siberian Wikipedia]] ==

Ich würde da die Finger von lassen. Ich sehe nicht, wie und mit welcher Autorität wir da eine Entscheidung treffen könnten. Ich bin zwar persönlich der Meinung, dass die "sibirische" Wikipedia ein Unding ist - eine konstruierte Sprache, die ein reines Internetphänomen ist und einen /sehr/ überschaubaren Kreis von Anhängern hat. Auch ist die inhaltliche Qualität der Artikel teilweise unter aller Kanone. Aber eine Schließung eines Projekts aus solchen Gründen wäre ein komplettes Novum und ist nicht durchsetzbar. Andersherum würde eine Entscheidung pro Fortbestehen des Projekts einen Proteststurm aus dem [[:ru:]]-Lager provozieren. Ich finde, wir sollten uns auf das reine Aufräumen beschränken, also die Schließung von Wikis, die wirklich vergessen sind. Sich in einen solchen Streit einzumischen, könnte da eher kontraproduktiv sein und diese Aufgabe erschweren.

Meiner Meinung nach bräuchte es für die Lösung dieses Konflikts ein Arbitration Committee, das auch andere Optionen zu Gebote hat und mit den nötigen Vollmachten ausgestattet ist. Es wäre z.B. möglich, dafür zu sorgen, dass einzelne besonders kontroverse Artikel entfernt werden oder die Adminrechte neu vergeben werden etc. pp.

Also, wie gesagt - das beste was ich Dir raten kann, ist, das Problem der sibirischen Wikipedia zu ignorieren. Mit einer einfachen Ja-Nein-Entscheidung ist das nicht zu lösen. Zudem stelle ich es mir relativ schwierig vor, sich ohne Russischkenntnisse (nach Deiner Babel-Selbsteinstufung) ein Bild von der Lage zu machen. Gruß, --[[User:Johannes Rohr|Johannes Rohr]] 21:02, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Aber dem Streit sollte wirklich mal wer ein Ende machen, die Druckvorschau in Firefox zeigt 126(!) Seiten an.

::Ach warum hab ich dich nur drauf hingewiesen ;-). Aber hierfür braucht man echt so was wie ein ArbCom. Du hast ja Yaroslav, Kalan und Vasiliev im Chat erlebt. [[User:MF-Warburg|MF-Warburg]]<small>([[:de:Benutzer Diskussion:MF-Warburg|de]])</small> 15:53, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

::::Ah ja. Und was schlägst du vor? Ich geh jetzt auf die Seite, schreibe '''I propose to close this discussion within 4 days from now, if there are no other opinions''' und kündige dann das Ergebnis an. Dann hätt ich gern Checkuser access um auf Sockenpuppenstimmen zu überprüfen, und dann mache ich evtl. einen [[:bugzilla:]]-Bug? Da wird's Beschwerden hageln... [[User:MF-Warburg|MF-Warburg]]<small>([[:de:Benutzer Diskussion:MF-Warburg|de]])</small> 16:29, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
:::::Dass die "sibirische" Wikipedia ein Unding ist, hat Johannes gesagt. Treffender hätte ich es auch nicht ausdrücken können. Ich bin in dieser Sache nicht neutral und werde nicht versuchen, dir meine Meinung aufzudrücken. Die Entscheidung abnehmen kann ich Dir auch nicht. Ich gebe nur zu bedenken, dass der Antrag auf Schließung am 3. November letzten Jahres (also vo 9 Monaten) gestellt wurde, die wesentlichen Argumente in den ersten Tagen genannt wurden und daher wirklich genug Zeit war, die Sache zu entscheiden.
:::::Ich teile die Ansicht der meisten Russen, mit denen ich mich über das Problem unterhalten habe. Sie sind der Meinung, dass es "dem Westen" scheißegal ist, was mit ru-sib passiert, weil der Westen das für ein innerrussisches Gezänk und Trolling hält. Würde jemand etwas analoges mit der englischen Sprache anstellen, hätte es die Genehmigung gar nicht erst gegeben. Man ist Zolotaryov aber aus Unkenntnis auf den Leim gegengen und hat nun keine Lust, sich die Mühe zu machen, einen Experten anzusetzen, der die Argumente überprüft und bewertet. Deswegen hält man im Westen lieber still.
:::::Ich weiß nicht, ob Du Kenntnis davon hast, daß seit vielen Monaten in der ru-wiki per Mehrheitsbeschluß die Interwikiverlinkung zu ru-sib geblockt wird. Begründet wurde das mit Wikipedia:Reliable sources. Ru-sib wäre keine zuverlässige Quelle. Ich hatte erfolglos dagegen gestimmt, weil ich der Meinung bin, daß soetwas nicht hinnehmbar ist und Zensur dem Gedanken einer freien Enzyklopädie widerspricht. Stelle Dir nur vor, die Araber würden gleiches mit der hebräischen wiki tun (oder umgedreht). Da wäre das Geschrei groß und der Westen würde sofort reagieren. Aber bei russischen Problemen ...
:::::Also, habt Mut und entscheidet. --[[User:Obersachse|Obersachse]] 17:05, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

== Dellie ==

Yes, I just posted the source code [http://tools.wikimedia.org/~tangotango/dumps/Dellie2.4.zip here] for your perusal. The bot is written in Python, and you need to put the two files in a directory containing a working installation of pywikipedia. (i.e., inside the pywikipedia directory).

== Dellie ==

Hi MF-Warburg. As I didn't intend to release the source code in the first place, I wrote that by force of habit. You can consider it released under the terms of the [[:en:MIT License|MIT License]]. If you are modifying Dellie to introduce a new feature to add {{tl|delete}} to pages, could I see the source code when you're finished please?

== Move to Incubator? ==

Rather than moving Wikis to incubator before they are locked by a developer, please wait so that we do not have two concurrent Wikis running. Also please kindly let votes run longer. --[[User:Node ue|Node ue]] 14:27, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
:Also please consider appropriate solutions for individual Wikis. For example, Chamorro Wiki could probably be easily helped by blanking and protecting w/index.php and such pages, and if necesssary main page could be protected as well (although I doubt it is needed). Eventuality principle has been working for small Wikis for ages, the idea is it is easier for someone to add to something that already exists than to propose to start something that doesn't yet. --[[User:Node ue|Node ue]] 14:30, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

::Please, [[:ch:]] was created in July 2004, according to Main Page history. It has had its chance. [[User:MF-Warburg|MF-Warburg]]<small>([[:de:Benutzer Diskussion:MF-Warburg|de]])</small>
:::"It has had its chance"? What sort of an attitude is this!? It takes time for Wikis to develop. An attitude such as yours is extremely unhelpful.

==Resurrection/hijacking of the [[hz:Special:Allpages|Herero Wikipedia]] as a sort of personal hosting space==

FYI, this Wikipedia has now been resurrected and hijacked to support a constructed language called "Wikihero" and a number of Turkish related pages have been added; see [http://hz.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Allpages Special:Allpages] now.

==Volapük Wikipedia II==
Hi MF-Warburg,<br>
Despite the end of the voting on the [[Proposals for closing projects/Closure of Volapük Wikipedia]], I added a link to a new [[List of Wikipedias by sample of articles]] that I've been working on as an alternative to article count. I thought it would be a good idea to put a link there because of the criticism in the discussion on article count as a parameter for ranking Wikipeidas; I wanted to show a possible alternative to any discussion participants who might be interested. But if it is too late to add anything to the discussion, let me know and I'll remove it. --[[User:Smeira|Smeira]] 16:54, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Why are you changing the list? To ask for delete in all the wikis minus one (in one should ask for local permission) it's the form? Writing a long list? --[[User:Emporio2012|Emporio2012]] 18:26, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

== Is it allowed in Wikipedia? ==
To keep in the pages of wiki Administrator's personnel thesis? at http://sd.wikipedia.org ? Other problem is We call Computer as same in English, but admin forcibly used his word Ganpukar of Computer. I have proof that thousands of published books called it Computer not Ganpukar. If some one oppose him he started abusive language. That is the reason sd.wikipedia.org never got attraction to Sindhi community. Plz check record there. Other things are he locked CSS due to that on the same site there are lot of font styles appeared there. He is not able to set commonCSS or Monocss. We are in trouble to work in our local Sindhi language. I don't know where to say for this problem. Record history says all the situation there. I appeal plz warn him to follow en.wikipedia.org rules, other wise he will continue use his personnel details and personnel promoted articles there. Dear I am sorry If u r not right person to say all about this, Plz suggest me where I can raise this issue. My sd.wikipedia.org ID is same.

Global sysop

Hi MF-Warburg. Have you ever considered requesting global sysop rights? I think you could use it. Kind regards, Trijnstel 14:48, 8 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi Trijnstel. By coincidence, it was only today when I marked some pages for deletion that I thought I could request it. I have now made a request :) --MF-W 16:41, 8 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

editor

Hei, MF-Warburg, sag mal. Da du ja viel Erfahrung mit der engl. Verwendung von editor hast: Ist dann „Bearbeiter“ und „Sichter“ in der engl. Verwendung identisch? Man weiß also nie, ob nun das Eine oder das Andere gemeint ist? Ist doch ziemlich blöd eigentlich, oder? Was müsste Pundit denn sagen, wenn er unterscheiden oder betonen will, dass er in der poln. WP sowohl normaler Bearbeiter als auch Sichter ist? Bzw. wenn man will, dass man nicht „Bearbeiter“ versteht, wenn man „Sichter“ gemeint hat. Ist ja wohl doch ein kleiner Unterschied eigentlich. Ich finde das sehr verwirrend. Wie kriegt man das nun unterschieden, wenn man es unterschieden haben will? Oder muss man dann dabei immer auf irgendwelche Logs verlinken, damit das klar wird? :-/ (Und ich dachte immer, die engl. Sprache sei so reich an unterschiedlichen Vokabeln …) Grüße --Geitost diskusjon 02:17, 11 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Im Prinzip kann man es nur durch Log-Untersuchung unterscheiden, da es eben die zwei Bedeutungen (Bearbeiter und Sichter) gibt... da die Gesichteten Version aber nur auf wenigen Wikis eingesetzt werden, kommt es kaum vor, dass sich Sichter als editors bezeichnen. Viel häufiger, besonders bei Stewardwahlen, treiben die Kandidaten die Übersetzer mit solchen Formulierungen wie "I'm an editor on English Wikipedia" (=ich editiere dort öfter mal) zur Verzweiflung. --MF-W 18:18, 11 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Danke

Aber mir geht es nicht um die Diskussion mit den enwiki Nutzern sondern um meine Prinzipien die besagen: sei ehrlich, sei gerecht und wenn jemand der mehr Erfahrung hat als du, denkt dass du es falsch machst, dann mach es nicht! Ich sagte mehrmals dass ich gehen werde wenn ein Steward sagt dass ich meine Werkzeuge mißbraucht habe, und nun das ist der Fall. Wenn der Peter es meint, dann soll er auch die Eier haben und konsequent handeln. Nur anscheinend ist er nur ein Liebhaber der großen Worte. --WizardOfOz talk 22:54, 11 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Übersetzung

Die Benutzer sind eingeladen, zu diskutieren, ob es eine gute Idee ist, die vorgeschlagene neue Sprachversion zu eröffnen. Dabei handelt es sich aber nicht um eine Abstimmung. Das Projekt wird nach seinen linguistischen Werten und den Chancen, dass es erfolgreich sein wird, beurteilt werden. Auch wenn starke Unterstützung geäußert wird, kann der Vorschlag abgelehnt werden, wenn die Stärke der Argumente gegen die Eröffnung des neuen Wikis die der Argumente dafür nach der Beurteilung des Sprachkomitees überwiegt.

Moving the Main page in newly created wiki

Thanks for your work in the newly created Belarusian Wikisource. Do you know, is changing MediaWiki:Mainpage and moving the page is enough to rename the main page? The localization had a bad-styled title and it hadn't been fixed by the time. Wizardist (talk) 09:12, 28 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Yes, this should be sufficient. --MF-W 09:46, 28 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Bot header (2)

Hi! I've temporarily moved the "Bot-reported" heading back to the header subpage because Kimberley-nia Bot keeps moving the heading around like this. Is there any way to prevent the bot from moving the header, without having to move the heading to a subpage which breaks the section edit link at SRSD? (After my temporary fix, the section edit link points to [1], which is obviously wrong.) Regards, Jafeluv (talk) 07:53, 10 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Of course this is possible. To clarify, Steward requests/Speedy deletions/Bot-reported should look the following way, correct?:
== Bot-reported requests ==
{{:Steward requests/Speedy deletions/Bot-reported/Header}}

--MF-W 12:20, 10 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Yes, that's right. That way the explanation in the header would come after the heading, and the section edit link would point to the right place. Jafeluv (talk) 12:33, 10 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Wie ich gesehen habe hast Du Dich an der Disk beteiligt. Kannst Du mir bitte genau erklären, worum es geht? Mein Englisch reicht nicht und ich fände es nicht gut, wenn unsre pfl.wp plötzlich ohne Graphiken dastände. Ich habe mich immer bemüht, allen Anforderungen (Urheber, Datum, lizens etc.) gerecht zu werden und sogar die Lizenstexte ins pälzische zu übersetzen, was soll ich denn noch tun? Mitunter wollte ich korrigiertes auf commons als neue Version hochladen, was mir dann - manchmal - verwehrt wurde, sowas kann ich dann ja nur bei uns hochladen. Anderes ist aus der de.wp und auf commens garnicht verfügbar und schließlich und endlich bin ich eh kein Freund von commens (mehr). Worum genau geht es? Wir wollen unsre Bilder lokal hochladen! was kann, was muß ich tun?

Dank für Deine Mühe und liebe Grüße, --Skipper Michael 17:35, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Nein, das hatte ich nicht gesehen, Danke, das war alles, was ich wissen wollte! Ok, damit kann ich leben. Bei uns ist Hochladen frei, aber nur für Admins. Ich sehe weder einen Grund, dies zu ändern, noch derzeit ein Problem darin - aber uns Admins muß es eben auch frei bleiben! Von 59 Dateien auf unsrer Liste habe ich 58 hochgeladen, das meiste eigene Werke oder aus anderen Wikis und mit eigener Bearbeitung und dortiger Lizens, also Bild-CC-by-sa/3.0 wieder Bild-CC-by-sa/3.0 und frei wieder frei.

Global bans policy discussion

At Requests for comment/Global bans, where you have commented in support of Option 2, a third option has recently been implemented. The first two options did not prove a way for respondents to indicate that they oppose global bans entirely, i.e., that it is not possible to write a meaningful global bans policy that would attract their support. Option 3 is intended to provide that opportunity, and to aid in distinguishing between people who oppose the proposed policy because it requires improvements and those who oppose the proposed policy because no policy permitting global bans should be adopted.

Because the third section was added late by a respondent, it is possible that some people who responded early in the RFC have commented at option 2, but would really prefer to support option 3, or support both. If so, you may voluntarily choose to move your original comment or to or strikethrough your original comment and add new comments. This is a courtesy notice of the change, and there is no requirement that you take any action. WhatamIdoing (talk) 15:54, 13 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Note: This time, the "Wikimedia Foundation highlights" section does not include the usual coverage of the most notable work of Foundation staff during that month. Instead, it contains a list of talks given by Foundation staff at Wikimania, summarizing their most important work the year over. It looks like a lot of text, but only the talk titles will need to be translated.

See in the article of Berlin[14] on top right. We dont have it [15]. Please help and guide us in this important issue. --Khalid Mahmood (talk) 16:40, 13 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

A Question

Hi dear MF-Warburg! Do you have any information about this application? My friends and I are anxiously awaiting Language committee action. Thanks--Ebrahimi-amir (talk) 20:21, 22 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi, the Language committee is on it, but it may take some time for a decision. I'm sorry for the delay --MF-W 07:30, 24 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Ok. Thanks for your attention. --Ebrahimi-amir (talk) 12:07, 24 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

What do you think about this comment? http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Dari_Persian#Discussion I will ask the translators their opinions. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:46, 11 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

It is surely a good idea to ask the translators if they think that their translations can be put on the Persian/Farsi Wikipedia (too). Concerning the comment itself, this is exactly what Gerard meant on the mailing list: As Dari and Farsi are very close to each other, we at the Language committee now need to decide whether they are separate enough to be able to get two separate Wikipedias. We are discussing this at the moment and will announce our decision (and reasons) on the request page, where everyone is invited to comment the request. So, this one comment does not necessarily mean that Dari is not eligible for a separate Wikipedia. --MF-W 01:11, 11 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
