painos-sanan käyttö

Voiko sanaa painos käyttää suomen kielessä tarkoittamaan jonkun säännöllisesti järjestettävän tapahtuman järjestämiskertaa, kuten englannin kielen sanaa edition, jota käytetään englannissa erittäin runsaasti? Esimerkiksi näin:

The 2014 edition of the Tour de France started in Leeds, Yorkshire.

Vuoden 2014 painos Tour de Francesta alkoi Leedsistä Yorkshiressä.

Upcoming Call for Feedback about the Board of Trustees elections

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

Lisää kieliä • Please help translate to your language

The Board of Trustees is preparing a call for feedback about the upcoming Board Elections, from January 7 - February 10, 2022.

While details will be finalized the week before the call, we have confirmed at least two questions that will be asked during this call for feedback:

• What is the best way to ensure fair representation of emerging communities among the Board?

• What involvement should candidates have during the election?

While additional questions may be added, the Movement Strategy and Governance team wants to provide time for community members and affiliates to consider and prepare ideas on the confirmed questions before the call opens. We apologize for not having a complete list of questions at this time. The list of questions should only grow by one or two questions. The intention is to not overwhelm the community with requests, but provide notice and welcome feedback on these important questions.

Do you want to help organize local conversation during this Call?

Contact the Movement Strategy and Governance team on Meta, on Telegram, or via email at msgwikimedia.org.

Reach out if you have any questions or concerns. The Movement Strategy and Governance team will be minimally staffed until January 3. Please excuse any delayed response during this time. We also recognize some community members and affiliates are offline during the December holidays. We apologize if our message has reached you while you are on holiday.

TÄRKEÄÄ: Ylläpitäjien aktiivisuuden tarkastus

Hei. Käytäntö koskien "edistyneiden käyttöoikeuksien" poistamista (ylläpitäjä, byrokraatti, käyttöliittymän ylläpitäjä jne.) otettiin käyttöön yhteisön konsensuksella vuonna 2013. Tämän käytännön mukaisesti ylivalvojat arvioivat ylläpitäjien aktiivisuutta wikeissä, joissa ei ole käytäntöä aktiivisuuden vähäisyydestä. Parhaan tietomme mukaan tässä wikissä ei ole muodollista prosessia "edistyneiden käyttöoikeuksien" poistamiseksi tunnuksilta, jotka eivät ole aktiivisia. Tämä tarkoittaa, että ylivalvojat huolehtivat asiasta ylläpitäjien aktiivisuuden arvioinnin nojalla.

Katsomme, että seuraavat käyttäjät ovat määritelmän mukaan passiivisia (ei muokkauksia eikä lokitapahtumia yli kahteen vuoteen):

1. Lentom (käyttöliittymän ylläpitäjä, ylläpitäjä)

Nämä käyttäjät saavat pian ilmoituksen, jossa heitä pyydetään aloittamaan keskustelu yhteisössä, mikäli he haluavat säilyttää jonkin käyttöoikeutensa tai kaikki oikeudet. Jos käyttäjät eivät reagoi tähän viestiin, ylivalvojat poistavat heiltä edistyneet käyttöoikeudet.

Mikäli te yhteisönä haluatte laatia oman menetelmänne aktiivisuuden tutkimiseen, joka tulee järjestelmänlaajuisen käytännön tilalle, tai jos haluatte tehdä toisenlaisen ratkaisun koskien näitä passiivisia käyttöoikeuden haltijoita tai jos teillä on olemassa oleva käytäntö, jota emme ole huomanneet, ottakaa yhteyttä ylivalvojiin Meta-Wikissä. Näin saamme asiasta tiedon emmekä suorita jatkossa käyttöoikeuksien arviointia wikissänne. Kiitos, Stanglavine (keskustelu) 4. tammikuuta 2022 kello 15.50 (UTC)

Kuvien lisäämisen estäminen IP-osoitteilta

Tämän yhden vandaalin takia pitäisi varmaan estää IP-osoitteilta kuvien lisääminen väärinkäyttösuodattimella. --Hunsvotti (keskustelu) 6. tammikuuta 2022 kello 16.42 (UTC)

Joo, melkein tässä täytyisi tehdä noin ainakin toistaiseksi. Ja oikeastaan tähän lisäksi käyttäjiltä, joilla on ikää alle 21 pvä tai vaikkapa 1 kk.

Vaihtoehtona tänne otettaisiin käyttäjäryhmä, jolle annettaisiin oikeudet kuvien lisäämiseen ja muita lisäoikeuksia (rollback?), jos käyttäjä osoittautuu luotettavaksi. Tuon oikeuden voisi antaa ihan tavallinen ylläpitäjä. Mutta ei viitsisi suojattaa kaikkea pysyvästi vain hyväksytyille käyttäjille tai varsinkaan vain ylläpitäjille. Pysyvillä sysop-suojauksilla vandaali vain voittaa.--Sentree (Keskustele) 6. tammikuuta 2022 kello 17.06 (UTC)

Juu, jotain tuollaista kyllä tarvitaan. Mölli-Möllerö (keskustelu) 6. tammikuuta 2022 kello 17.40 (UTC)

With this Call for Feedback, the Movement Strategy and Governance team is taking a different approach. This approach incorporates community feedback from 2021.

Intiaanikielten ja Tyynenmeren/Polynesian kielten sanat?

Täällä on ollut jo aiemmin keskustelua siitä, mitä kuuluisi tehdä intiaani- ja Tyynenmeren/Polynesian kielten sanojen kanssa. [1] [2] On muun muassa peräänkuulutettu sitä, että noita ei voi tarkistaa mistään (ainakaan helposti) ja niillä olisi taipumus levitä muualle internetin maailmaan juurikin erikielisten Wiktionaryjen kopioista.
Mutta mitä näiden kanssa olisi järkevintä tehdä? Itse en ainakaan vielä kannata mitään radikaalia massapoistoa. Mutta ehkä jokin mallineellinen kehotus siitä, että tieto kannattaa tarkistaa jostakin muualta ja/tai siitä, että merkitys kaipaisi lähteen ja/tai esimerkkilauseen, olisi paikallaan? Keskustelkaamme asiasta.--Sentree (Keskustele) 22. tammikuuta 2022 kello 14.59 (UTC)

rakentama?

Sivulla Liite:Verbitaivutus/suomi/mennä (Malline:fi-verbi-taiv-tulla) lukee huomautuksissa

ma-infinitiivi eli kolmannen infinitiivin perusmuoto, jota ei voida käyttää agenttipartisiippina
(esim. minun rakentama talo), jos verbi on merkitykseltään intransitiivinen; älä sekoita intransitiivi-
verbien substantiiveina käytettäviin ma-infinitiiveihin (esim. kuolla -> kuolema)

Niin minulle jäi epäselväksi, että onko tuo "minun rakentama talo" esimerkki virheellisestä käytöstä vai ei. Eikö sen pitäisi olla "minun rakentamani talo"? "Rakennusyhtiön rakentama talo" tai "kaupungin rakentama talo" on kyllä oikein, mutta jos siihen persoonapronominin laittaa, niin siinä pitää kirjakielessä olla -nsa/nsä-pääte.

(Oikeasti minulla ei ole hajuakaan, mitä koko huomautus yrittää sanoa... pitää kai lukea partisiipin agenteista jostakin...) --91.150.16.141 25. tammikuuta 2022 kello 10.06 (UTC)

Vastauksesi kyllä on käsittääkseni oikein eli "minun rakentama talo" on huonoa suomea. --Höyhens (keskustelu) 9. helmikuuta 2022 kello 03.39 (UTC)

Tiedostot

Terveisiä,

Haluaisin lisätä IPA-kaavion käyttäjäsivulleni, mutta sain virheilmoituksen "Kuvien lisääminen kielletty IP-muokkaajilta ja äskettäin luoduilta tunnuksilta." Voisitteko sallia kiitos?

Kwamikagami (keskustelu) 19. helmikuuta 2022 kello 21.44 (UTC)

Lisäsin kuvan, mutta en muuttanut väärinkäyttösuodatinta. Siinä on rajoituksena 50 muokkausta ja 3 päivää, joka on mielestäni hyvä raja. Lisäsin kuitenkin rajan virheilmoitukseen. Sinulla on nyt 45 muokkausta, niin voit lisätä kuvia muutaman muokkauksen jälkeen. Kuvien lisäys jouduttiin valitettavasti estetämään uusilta käyttäjiltä sen takia, että täällä on eräs vandaali toistuvasti lisännyt törkyä sivuille. --Hunsvotti (keskustelu) 20. helmikuuta 2022 kello 10.52 (UTC)

Hello everyone,

A vote in SecurePoll from 7 to 21 March 2022 is scheduled as part of the ratification process for the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) Enforcement guidelines. Eligible voters are invited to answer a poll question and share comments. Read voter information and eligibility details. During the poll, voters will be asked if they support the enforcement of the Universal Code of Conduct based on the proposed guidelines.

The Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) provides a baseline of acceptable behavior for the entire movement. The revised enforcement guidelines were published 24 January 2022 as a proposed way to apply the policy across the movement. A Wikimedia Foundation Board statement calls for a ratification process where eligible voters will have an opportunity to support or oppose the adoption of the UCoC Enforcement guidelines in a vote. Wikimedians are invited to translate and share important information. For more information about the UCoC, please see the project page and frequently asked questions on Meta-wiki.

There are events scheduled to learn more and discuss:

• A community panel recorded on 18 February 2022 shares perspectives from small- and medium-sized community participants.
• The Movement Strategy and Governance (MSG) team is hosting Conversation Hours on 4 March 2022 at 15:00 UTC. Please sign-up to interact with the project team and the drafting committee about the updated enforcement guidelines and the ratification process. See the Conversation Hour summaries for notes from 4 February 2022 and 25 February 2022.

Invitation to Hubs event: Global Conversation on 2022-03-12 at 13:00 UTC

Hello!

The Movement Strategy and Governance team of the Wikimedia Foundation would like to invite you to the next event about "Regional and Thematic Hubs". The Wikimedia Movement is in the process of understanding what Regional and Thematic Hubs should be. Our workshop in November was a good start (read the report), but we're not finished yet.

Over the last weeks we conducted about 16 interviews with groups working on establishing a Hub in their context (see Hubs Dialogue). These interviews informed a report that will serve as a foundation for discussion on March 12. The report is planned to be published on March 9.

The event will take place on March 12, 13:00 to 16:00 UTC on Zoom. Interpretation will be provided in French, Spanish, Arabic, Russian, and Portuguese. Registration is open, and will close on March 10. Anyone interested in the topic is invited to join us. More information on the event on Meta-wiki.

Edit request

On pikkutuulihaukka, the two images are the wrong species (Falco tinnunculus, not Falco naumanni). Please replace them with Kuva:Falco naumanni, Israel 11.jpg (a male) and Kuva:A Lesser Kestrel on a Weak Perch (49591372658).jpg (a female). I don't have enough edits to be able to do this myself. Thanks, and apologies for not being able to write in Finnish! - MPF (keskustelu) 1. kesäkuuta 2022 kello 22.28 (UTC)

Done, thank you for your notice. Jnovikov (ᛕᛈᛇᛕ∪ᛇᏖᛈᏞ∪) 2. kesäkuuta 2022 kello 11.53 (UTC)

@Jnovikov: another one, please! On ruostepyrstö the image is the wrong species (Cercotrichas leucophrys, not Cercotrichas galactotes). Could you replace it with Kuva:Agrobate roux au Parc National de l'Ichkeul (Tunisia).jpg please. Thanks! - MPF (keskustelu) 24. kesäkuuta 2022 kello 05.22 (UTC)

Many thanks! - MPF (keskustelu) 25. kesäkuuta 2022 kello 20.58 (UTC)

@Jnovikov: and another one, please! On tyynenmerenpääsky the image is the wrong species (Hirundo rustica, not Hirundo tahitica). Could you replace it with Kuva:Pacific Swallow in the Rain (14184254635).jpg please. As an aside, this block on replacing images is a nuisance; I have not met it on any other wiki site. Could it be removed, please? Thanks! - MPF (keskustelu) 4. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 17.45 (UTC)

I added you as an exception to the abuse filter rule. Thanks, for taking the time to comment here! There was a lot of vandalism here a while ago and not enough editors, so we had to block adding images by new users. Commons has all kinds of images these days and, as far as I know, there is no way to filter them. --Hunsvotti (keskustelu) 4. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 18.26 (UTC)

Revisions to the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC) Enforcement Guidelines

Lisää kieliä • Please help translate to your language

Hello all,

We'd like to provide an update on the work on the Enforcement Guidelines for the Universal Code of Conduct. After the conclusion of the community vote on the guidelines in March, the Community Affairs committee (CAC) of the Board asked that several areas of the guidelines be reviewed for improvements before the Board does its final review. These areas were identified based on community discussions and comments provided during the vote. The CAC also requested review of the controversial Note in 3.1 of the UCoC itself.

Once more, a big thank you to all who voted, especially to all who left constructive feedback and comments! The project team is working with the Board to establish a timeline for this work, and will communicate this next month.

Members of the two prior UCoC Drafting Committees have generously offered their time to help shape improvements to the Guidelines. You can read more about them and their work here, as well as read summaries of their weekly meetings in 2022.

Wikimedians have provided many valuable comments together with the vote and in other conversations. Given the size and diversity of the Wikimedia community, there are even more voices out there who can give ideas on how to improve the enforcement guidelines and add even more valuable ideas to the process. To help the Revisions committee identify improvements, input on several questions for the committee’s review is requested. Visit the Meta-wiki pages (Enforcement Guidelines revision discussions, Policy text revision discussions) to get your ideas to the Committee - it is very important that viewpoints are heard from different communities before the Committee begins drafting revision proposals.

On behalf of the UCoC project team

Desktop Improvements update

Making this the new default

Hei. I wanted to give you an update about the Desktop Improvements project, which the Wikimedia Foundation Web team has been working on for the past few years. Our work is almost finished! 🎉

We would love to see these improvements become the default for readers and editors across all wikis. In the coming weeks, we will begin conversations on more wikis, including yours. 🗓️ We will gladly read your suggestions!

The goals of the project are to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. The project consists of a series of feature improvements which make it easier to read and learn, navigate within the page, search, switch between languages, use article tabs and the user menu, and more. The improvements are already visible by default for readers and editors on more than 30 wikis, including Wikipedias in French, Portuguese, and Persian.

The changes apply to the Vector skin only, although it will always be possible to revert to the previous version on an individual basis. Monobook or Timeless users will not notice any changes.

The newest features

• Table of contents - our version is easier to reach, gain context of the page, and navigate throughout the page without needing to scroll. It is currently tested across our pilot wikis. It is also available for editors who have opted into the Vector 2022 skin.
• Page tools - now, there are two types of links in the sidebar. There are actions and tools for individual pages (like Related changes) and links of the wiki-wide nature (like Recent changes). We are going to separate these into two intuitive menus.

How to enable/disable the improvements

Järjestelmänlaajuiset asetukset

• It is possible to opt-in individually in the appearance tab within the preferences by selecting "Vektori (2022)". Also, it is possible to opt-in on all wikis using the global preferences.
• On wikis where the changes are visible by default for all, logged-in users can always opt-out to the Legacy Vector. There is an easily accessible link in the sidebar of the new Vector.

Learn more and join our events

If you would like to follow the progress of our project, you can subscribe to our newsletter. You can read the pages of the project, check our FAQ, write on the project talk page, and join an online meeting with us.

Propose statements for the 2022 Election Compass

You can find this message translated into additional languages on Meta-wiki.

Lisää kieliä • Please help translate to your language

Hi all,

Community members in the 2022 Board of Trustees election are invited to propose statements to use in the Election Compass.

An Election Compass is a tool to help voters select the candidates that best align with their beliefs and views. The community members will propose statements for the candidates to answer using a Lickert scale (agree/neutral/disagree). The candidates’ answers to the statements will be loaded into the Election Compass tool. Voters will use the tool by entering in their answer to the statements (agree/disagree/neutral). The results will show the candidates that best align with the voter’s beliefs and views.

Here is the timeline for the Election Compass

• July 8 - 20: Community members propose statements for the Election Compass
• July 21 - 22: Elections Committee reviews statements for clarity and removes off-topic statements
• July 23 - August 1: Volunteers vote on the statements
• August 2 - 4: Elections Committee selects the top 15 statements
• August 5 - 12: candidates align themselves with the statements
• August 15: The Election Compass opens for voters to use to help guide their voting decision

The Elections Committee will select the top 15 statements at the beginning of August. The Elections Committee will oversee the process, supported by the Movement Strategy and Governance team. MSG will check that the questions are clear, there are no duplicates, no typos, and so on.

Best,

Movement Strategy and Governance

Malline:kirjoitusmerkki ja puuttuva kielimerkkaus

Monen kiinalaisen merkin sivustolla käytetään mallinetta {{kirjoitusmerkki|ja}}. Tämä malline pläjäyttää kiinalaisen merkin ruudulle. Ongelmana vain on se, että moni kiinalainen merkki näyttää eri kielissä erilaiselta, ja riippuu pitkälti kirjasinvalinnasta, että näkyykö merkki oikein.

Moni merkki, esim. 麻 [3], 花 [4], 鼻 [5], 毒 [6] muutamia räikeämpiä esimerkkejä lainatakseni, näkyy kiinalaisella fontilla vaikka ovatkin japaninkielisiksi merkattuja ja japanin otsakkeen alla. (Kuvakaappauksissa ylempänä siis väärä, kiinalainen kirjasin; alempana oikea japanin malli.)

Oikean kirjasimen saa valittua vihjaamalla selaimelle, mitä kieltä kyseinen merkki on. Jospa joku, joka uskaltaa mallineita muokata, voisi lisätä mallineeseen lang="#1" (eli lang="ja") niin tämä ongelma ymmärtääkseni korjautuu. --91.150.48.172 25. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 15.31 (UTC)

ping @Mikko Paananen:, osaatko ottaa tähän kantaa? Mölli-Möllerö (keskustelu) 25. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 18.01 (UTC)

Näkyykö ne nyt oikein? Hyvä kun sanoit tästä, koska mulla noi näkyy samanlaisena aina samanlaisina kaikissa kielissä. Japanin ja kiinan merkeille voi tarvittaessa laittaa eri fontin tänne Järjestelmäviesti:Gadget-Tekstityylit.css, jos tiedät jonkin.

Eikö tämä sama ongelma ole myös käännöslaatikoissa, jos merkitsee käännökset ilman käännösmallinetta? --Hunsvotti (keskustelu) 25. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 19.26 (UTC)

Juu, näyttää näkyvän oikein. Kiitoksia. --91.150.48.172 27. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 19.13 (UTC)

Hui kamala. Tämä on kyllä järkyttävää luettavaa. En tiennytkään, että riippuu fontista, pystyykö japania/kiinaa lukemaan vai ei. Varmasti ongelma toistuu käännöslaatikoissakin vähintään yhdessä kielessä/joillain laitteistoilla.

Joissain kielissä sanariville laitetaan eri tavalla kirjoitettu sana kuin sivun otsikossa (esim. latinassa sanariville laitetaan pituusmerkit, mutta otsikkoon ei; venäjässä sanariville laitetaan painomerkit, mutta otsikkoon ei). Jos tällainen käytäntö esiintyy japanissa, kiinassa tai muussa fonttiriippuvaisessa kielessä, tarvitaan tästä lähtien sellaisille kielille kaksi sanariviä; yksi oikealla fontilla ilman ääntämismerkkiä ja yksi niiden kanssa. Indonesiankielisessä Wikisanakirjassa sanarivejä on kaksi. Mölli-Möllerö (keskustelu) 26. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 07.37 (UTC)

Ainakin tossa ekassa merkissä 麻 japanin ja yksinkertaistetut kiinan merkit ovat melkein samanlaiset, mutta ei ihan. Perinteinen kiinalainen merkki, esim. Taiwanilla ja Hongkongissa käytetty, on sitten ihan erilainen. Esim. animoidussa kirjoitusesimerkissä on perinteinen merkki ja se on ihan erilainen kuin sivulla on.

Olen kyllä kuullut valitusta Unicodessa tehdystä merkkien yhdistämisestä, jossa on yhdistelty samaa asiaa tarkoittavat melkein samanlaiset merkit yhteen koodipaikkaan. Enpä sitten arvannut että siihen ikinä törmää. Tämähän meinaa että sanarivien lisäksi kaikki esimerkitkin saa tagata kielen mukaan.

Oikeastaan tohon Kansainvälinen/Kirjoitusmerkki otsikon alle pitäisi laittaa merkin eri versiot. --Mikko Paananen (keskustelu) 26. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 18.01 (UTC)

Meillä näyttää olevan malline:han-merkki, jossa ei ole kieltä merkitty. Onkohan se oletuksena yksinkertaistetun kiinan merkkien mukaan? --Mikko Paananen (keskustelu) 26. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 18.03 (UTC)

Han-merkki-mallineeseen voisi lisätä merkin eri versioiden näyttämisen tai sitten samlla lailla sivun laitaan kuin enkkuwiktissä. Esimerkkien yms. merkkaamiseen on malline t. --Hunsvotti (keskustelu) 26. heinäkuuta 2022 kello 20.00 (UTC)

Thank you to the community members who put themselves forward as candidates for the Board of Trustees. Considering joining the Board of Trustees is no small decision. The time and dedication candidates have shown to this point speaks to their commitment to this movement. Congratulations to those candidates who have been selected. A great amount of appreciation and gratitude for those candidates not selected. Please continue to share your leadership with Wikimedia.

Thank you to those who followed the Affiliate process for this Board election. You may review the results of the Affiliate selection process.

The next part of the Board election process is the community voting period. You may view the Board election timeline here. To prepare for the community voting period, there are several things community members can engage with in the following ways:

Invitation to join the Movement Strategy Forum

Malline:More languages

Hello everyone,

The Movement Strategy Forum (MS Forum) is a multilingual collaborative space for all conversations about Movement Strategy implementation.

We are inviting all Movement participants to collaborate on the MS Forum. The goal of the forum is to build community collaboration, using an inclusive multilingual platform.

The Movement Strategy is a collaborative effort to imagine and build the future of the Wikimedia Movement. Anyone can contribute to the Movement Strategy, from a comment to a full-time project.

Join this forum with your Wikimedia account, engage in conversations, and ask questions in your language.

The Movement Strategy and Governance team (MSG) launched the proposal for the MS Forum in May 2022. There was a 2-month community review period, which ended on 24 July 2022. The community review process included several questions that resulted in interesting conversations. You can read the Community Review Report.

We look forward to seeing you at the MS Forum!

The Vector 2022 skin as the default in two weeks?

The slides for our presentation at Wikimania 2022

Hello. I'm writing on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Web team. In two weeks, we would like to make the Vector 2022 skin the default on this wiki.

We have been working on it for the past three years. So far, it has been the default on more than 30 wikis, including sister projects, all accounting for more than 1 billion pageviews per month. On average 87% of active logged-in users of those wikis use Vector 2022.

It would become the default for all logged-out users, and also all logged-in users who currently use Vector legacy. Logged-in users can at any time switch to any other skins. No changes are expected for users of these skins.

• Top of an article
• 
  Vector legacy (current default)
• 
  Vector 2022

• A section of an article
• 
  Vector legacy (current default)
• 
  Vector 2022

About the skin

[Why is a change necessary] The current default skin meets the needs of the readers and editors as these were 13 years ago. Since then, new users have begun using Wikimedia projects. The old Vector doesn't meet their needs.

[Objective] The objective for the new skin is to make the interface more welcoming and comfortable for readers and useful for advanced users. It draws inspiration from previous requests, the Community Wishlist Surveys, and gadgets and scripts. The work helped our code follow the standards and improve all other skins. We reduced PHP code in Wikimedia deployed skins by 75%. The project has also focused on making it easier to support gadgets and use APIs.

[Changes and test results] The skin introduces a series of changes that improve readability and usability. The new skin does not remove any functionality currently available on the Vector skin.

• The sticky header makes it easier to find tools that editors use often. It decreases scrolling to the top of the page by 16%.
• The new table of contents makes it easier to navigate to different sections. Readers and editors jumped to different sections of the page 50% more than with the old table of contents. It also looks a bit different on talk pages.
• The new search bar is easier to find and makes it easier to find the correct search result from the list. This increased the amount of searches started by 30% on the wikis we tested on.
• The skin does not negatively affect pageviews, edit rates, or account creation. There is evidence of increases in pageviews and account creation across partner communities.

[Try it out] Try out the new skin by going to the appearance tab in your preferences and selecting Vector 2022 from the list of skins.

How can editors change and customize this skin?

It's possible to configure and personalize our changes. We support volunteers who create new gadgets and user scripts. Check out our repository for a list of currently available customizations, or add your own.

Our plan

If no large concerns are raised, we plan on deploying in the week of October 3, 2022. If your community would like to request more time to discuss the changes, hit the button and write to us. We can adjust the calendar.

Request for more time to discuss the change

If you'd like ask our team anything, if you have questions, concerns, or additional thoughts, please ping me here or write on the talk page of the project. We will gladly answer! Also, see our FAQ. Thank you! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 22. syyskuuta 2022 kello 04.15 (UTC)
