Beta Feature Two Column Edit Conflict View

From May 9, the Two Column Edit Conflict View will be available as a beta feature on all wikis. The Two Column Edit Conflict View is a new interface for the edit conflict resolution page. It highlights differences between the editor's and the conflicting changes to make it easy to copy and paste pieces of the text and resolve the conflict. The feature fulfils a request for a more user-friendly edit conflict resolution from the German Community’s Technical Wishlist. Everyone is invited to test the feature and we hope that it will serve you well!

Solicitud de revisión y comentarios: Dominio público, GLAM y Wikipedia

¡Hola! ¿Te gustaría revisar un proyecto para incluir más obras en dominio público en Wikimedia Commons? Nuestro plan es sencillo: Hacer una serie de eventos con bibliotecas, archivos, museos y galerías (o GLAM como se conoce) para ver qué pueden aportar ellos de sus colecciones, que ya estén digitalizados y en dominio público. En este evento queremos que la gente aprenda a usar Wikimedia Commons y comparta estas obras como ejercicio.

Por favor dale una mirada al proyecto Dominio público en GLAM y Wikipedia. Tus comentarios son muy valiosos para nosotros, no dudes en dejarnos tus comentarios. Si te gusta, por favor apóyanos (endorse) para que se haga realidad y más gente pueda hacerlo.

¡Mil gracias!

RevisionSlider

RevisionSlider will be available as a default feature for all users on all wikis from May 17. The RevisionSlider adds a slider view to the diff page so that you can easily move between revisions. The slider view is collapsed by default, and will load by clicking on it. It can also be turned off entirely in the user preferences. RevisionSlider has been a default feature on German, Arabic and Hebrew Wikipedia for 6 months and a beta feature on all wikis for 8 months. The feature fulfills a wish from the German Community’s Technical Wishlist. Thanks to everyone who tested RevisionSlider and gave valuable feedback to improve the feature! We hope that RevisionSlider will continue to serve you well in your work.

Join the next cycle of Wikimedia movement strategy discussions (underway until June 12)

Message is available for translation on Meta-Wiki

The Wikimedia movement strategy core team and working groups have completed reviewing the more than 1800 thematic statements we received from the first discussion. They have identified 5 themes that were consistent across all the conversations - each with their own set of sub-themes. These are not the final themes, just an initial working draft of the core concepts.

You are invited to join the online and offline discussions taking place on these 5 themes. This round of discussions will take place between now and June 12th. You can discuss as many as you like; we ask you to participate in the ones that are most (or least) important to you.

Here are the five themes, each has a page on Meta-Wiki with more information about the theme and how to participate in that theme's discussion:

• Healthy, Inclusive Communities
• The Augmented Age
• A Truly Global Movement
• The Most Respected Source of Knowledge
• Engaging in the Knowledge Ecosystem

On the movement strategy portal on Meta-Wiki, you can find more information about each of these themes, their discussions, and how to participate.

Véase Caleido para entender este hilo. Dado que el proyecto fue cancelado pero actualmente se están aprovechando los cimientos ya realizados para levantar un nuevo rascacielos, ¿podría renombrarse la categoría o habría que crear otra? En realidad las imágenes que aparecen sirven porque son los cimientos que hay ahora. ¿O debería crear una categoría nueva? Triplecaña (talk) 19:21, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

Fotos de Cultura Paraguay

Muy buenas tardes. Mi consulta es con respecto a la utilización de fotos alojadas en el portal de la Secretaría de Cultura Paraguay: http://www.cultura.gov.py/2011/09/vya-guasu-itapua/. Son de dominio público al pertenecer a una página del Estado? Tengo entendido que en otros países, como Argentina, las fotos del Ministerio de Cultura son de dominio público.... Eso puede aplicar al Paraguay también? Desde ya, muchas gracias.--100% Globo (talk) 21:43, 19 May 2017 (UTC)

Lo que entendía de la Ley de Derecho de Autor 1328 de 1998, las únicas obras que no estén protegidas por la ley son "textos oficiales de carácter legislativo, administrativo o judicial, ni sus traducciones, sin perjuicio de la obligación de respetar los textos y citar la fuente" (Artículo 8). No estoy seguro que las obras del gobierno puedan ser asumidos a pertenecer a esta definición. Claro se podrían ser reconocidas como textos administrativos pero depende del la interpretación. A mi, fotografías no parecen como textos. Aquí en la web de DINAPI, la secretaria de propiedad intelectual, no hay mención especifica de las excepciones. Así deberíamos asumir que el gobierno/ministerio reserva el derecho de autor. Esa página web de DINAPI también muestra en el lado inferior a la derecha un símbolo de Creative Commons. Tal vez esto podría indicar que el gobierno sí respeta la importancia de libertad en esta área, pero solo en algunos sitios o secciones del gobierno creo. Espero la perspectiva de los demás. seb26 (talk) 22:33, 19 May 2017 (UTC)

En principio... no, salvo que indiquen de forma explícita una licencia libre. Como se ha dicho, la ley de derecho de Autor aplicable y su respectiva excepción afecta a textos administrativo/legislativos. Por otro lado, las fotos que publica el Ministerio de Cultura de Argentina no son de 'dominio público', sino que tienen 'licencia libre CC BY-SA 2.0' (aceptable también para Commons) y no la tienen (que yo sepa) per se por ser de un ministerio vinculado al Estado, sino porque esta institución ha escogido, porque ha querido, publicar material con esta licencia en su cuenta de flickr. Un saludo. Strakhov (talk) 22:51, 19 May 2017 (UTC)

La página no aclara absolutamente nada sobre la autoría de las fotografías, pero varios artículos dicen ser de la Agencia de Información Paraguaya (una agencia de noticias que se reserva todos los derechos), por lo que me atrevo a dudar que sean obra de un funcionario público en cumplimiento de sus funciones. Podrías intentar consultarlo por mail; mientras tanto, la respuesta es que no subas nada, por el principio de precaución. --Metrónomo's truth of the day: "That was also done by the president" not an excuse. 06:54, 22 May 2017 (UTC)

Comprendido. Muchas gracias por tomarse el tiempo para responder.--100% Globo (talk) 13:08, 29 May 2017 (UTC)
