Usually the "caption" field can play the role of description, and it is used more commonly. So I don't think "description" should be required. --SolidBlock (talk) 11:36, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

【實作上叫人不敢恭維】這問題太抽象，「實作」涉及到太多對象，是指我對用戶的溝通態度呢，還是指編輯上太糾結於自己的想法？如果是前者，是指我說話態度差，還是是指我難以溝通，又或者是指我待人方式令人不悅（比如拿規定壓人聽服）？如果是後者，是指我太死守Commons規定，還是是指我為人太自私，又或者是指我多管閒事，盡做些干預用戶的爭議行為（比如你侵權，經過我制止，你執意不聽，可是你沒有連續犯或大量犯下侵權，我卻扮演管理員角色在干預你的侵權行為）？--Kai3952 (talk) 11:04, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

大家好！簡要的跟大家分享一下通用行為準則執行規範投票結束後的進展。儘管投票結果顯示，最終總票數2283票中有1338票（佔總票數58.6％）為贊成票，但考量也有945票（佔41.4％）為反對票的情形下，維基媒體基金會理事會的社群事務委員會決定要求基金會協助進行新一輪的社群諮詢、重新召集起草委員會根據投票評論欄所提出的意見（主要可分為四大主題）完善執行規範，而後再次進行社群投票，以確保執行規範能有社群強力支持後再進行理事會的正式批准。先前大家在投票時所留下的評論，信任與安全團隊尚在做最後整理中，希望能儘快公布。關於社群事務委員會先前的公告請見此。如果您有任何疑慮或問題，請與我們聯繫，謝謝！運動策略與治理VChang (WMF) (talk) 08:47, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
Coming soon: Improvements for templates
Fundamental changes in the template dialog.
Hello, more changes around templates are coming to your wiki soon:
The template dialog in VisualEditor and in the 2017 Wikitext Editor (beta) will be improved fundamentally:
This should help users understand better what the template expects, how to navigate the template, and how to add parameters.
We are happy to share with you winning images for this year's edition. This year saw over 8,584 images represented on commons in over 92 countries. Kindly see images here
Our profound gratitude to all the people who participated and organized local contests and photo walks for this project.
We hope to have you contribute to the campaign next year.
此外，关于该书是否属于美国著作权法所定义的公有领域作品。我做了如下验证：我在斯坦福大学版权回溯数据库上搜索汉字「上海」，没有查询结果；搜索英文「Shanghai」，搜索结果没有1933年的书，页面左侧「Limit your search」显示最早一条相关搜索结果是1955年的作品。据此我判断该书是属于，但并没有进行过请问针对美国著作权法，如果上传该书的话，应该贴上哪个标签？
Hi everyone! The Ombuds commission (OC) and the Case Review Committee (CRC) are looking for members. People are encouraged to nominate themselves or encourage others they feel would contribute to these groups to do so. There is more information below about the opportunity and the skills that are needed.
About the Ombuds commission
The Ombuds commission (OC) works on all Wikimedia projects to investigate complaints about violations of the privacy policy, especially in use of CheckUser and Oversight (also known as Suppression) tools. The Commission mediates between the parties of the investigation and, when violations of the policies are identified, advises the Wikimedia Foundation on best handling. They may also assist the General Counsel, the Chief Executive Officer, or the Board of Trustees of the Foundation in these investigations when legally necessary. For more on the OC's duties and roles, see Ombuds commission on Meta-Wiki.
Volunteers serving in this role should be experienced Wikimedians, active on any project, who have previously used the CheckUser/Oversight tools OR who have the technical ability to understand these tools and the willingness to learn them. They must be able to communicate in English, the common language of the commission. They are expected to be able to engage neutrally in investigating these concerns and to know when to recuse when other roles and relationships may cause conflict. Commissioners will serve two-year terms (note that this is different from past years, when the terms have been for one year).
About the Case Review Committee
The Case Review Committee (CRC) reviews appeals of eligible Trust & Safety office actions. The CRC is a critical layer of oversight to ensure that Wikimedia Foundation office actions are fair and unbiased. They also make sure the Wikimedia Foundation doesn’t overstep established practices or boundaries. For more about the role, see Case Review Committee on Meta-Wiki.
We are looking for current or former functionaries and experienced volunteers with an interest in joining this group. Applicants must be fluent in English (additional languages are a strong plus) and willing to abide by the terms of the Committee charter. If the work resonates and you qualify, please apply. Committee members will serve two-year terms (note that this is different from past years, when the terms have been for one year).
If you are interested in serving in either capacity listed above, please write in English to the Trust and Safety team at cawikimedia.org (to apply to the OC) or to the Legal Team at legalwikimedia.org (to apply to the CRC) with information about:
Your primary projects
Languages you speak/write
Any experience you have serving on committees, whether movement or non-movement
Your thoughts on what you could bring to the OC or CRC if appointed
Any experience you have with the Checkuser or Oversight tools (OC only)
Any other information you think is relevant
The deadline for applications is 31 December 2022 in any timezone.
Please feel free to pass this invitation along to any users who you think may be qualified and interested. Thank you!
We are inviting you to share your ideas for technical improvements to our tools and platforms. Long experience in editing or technical skills is not required. If you have ever used our software and thought of an idea to improve it, this is the place to come share those ideas!
The dates for the phases of the Survey will be as follows:
Phase 1: Submit, discuss, and revise proposals – Monday, Jan 23, 2023 to Sunday, Feb 6, 2023
Phase 2: WMF/Community Tech reviews and organizes proposals – Monday, Jan 30, 2023 to Friday, Feb 10, 2023
Phase 3: Vote on proposals – Friday, Feb 10, 2023 to Friday, Feb 24, 2023
Phase 4: Results posted – Tuesday, Feb 28, 2023
If you want to start writing out your ideas ahead of the Survey, you can start thinking about your proposals and draft them in the CWS sandbox.
We are grateful to all who participated last year. See you in January 2023!
