message: Hello.
I am Anthere. I only speak french and english. I hope someone will be able to translate this, and I apologise if I did not put it in the right place :-)
I would like that information circulate better between wikipedias, so that all wikipedians can participate more, and keep its own identity at the same time.
For this reason, I recently set a page on meta, m: Goings-on.
Hopefull, at any time, this page could indicate the current discussions, polls, votes or general announcements. 3 pages were already locally created on the spanish, the french, on the  bulgarian and the english wikipedia.  A global one is now on meta.
Each local page is about general on-goings as well as local ones. 
Meta page aims at being about global occurences.
The page is different from the announcement page. The announcement is more oriented toward external communication (such as number of pages, special adverstisement), while the on-goings aim at mentionning community events (such as a new feature poll, elections of board of trustees).
To compare both pages : 
* annoucement page on meta : http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_News (this is rather for general and external announcements)
*goings-on page : http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goings-on (this is for community announcement). This page is still under construction.
It would be great that each wikipedia in time, set a similar page, so that information could flow more easily between wikipedia. If you do so, please do set the goings-on page locally, so that every wikipedians on *your* wikipedia can see it and participate to it, and please link it to the meta page. 
For bigger wikipedia, it is also interesting to set a goings-on page to relieve the local village pump, often clogged with information request.
For small wikipedias, since it is difficult to maintain such a community page with less contributors, it makes sense to merge the goings-on in the village pump, or in the community main page (perhaps by making a separate paragraph).
I am also looking for people who would agree to update the local goings-on in their language. Please, contact me at my talk page for any support, suggestion and feedback.
Thank you very much for your attention :-) Anthere

message: Hello! I noticed (how could I miss!) that there is a picture of woman in bikini on :Bild:BikiniIos.jpg. The titles under the picture say:
* "Bikini Ios från slovenska Lisca." and
* "Kvinna iklädd modern bikini."
We would like to reuse the same picture on Slovene Wikipedia (cf. :sl:bikini), but I'm not sure what those two messages mean. I guessed somehow that it could mean "bikini model Ios from Slovenian (company) Lisca". If so, are you sure that the picture is indeed under GFDL? Could you, please, translate this for me? --Romanm 5 mars 2005 kl.22.14 (CET)
replies: text: I think Ios is the model of the bikini and Lisca is the manufacturer. "Bikini Ios från slovenska Lisca." would be "Bikini Ios from Slovenian Lisca.". The other sentence translates to "Woman dressed in modern bikini." erif 5 mars 2005 kl.22.30 (CET)

message: Slovakia's president is Ivan Gašparovič.  The Swedish Wikipedia has an article Ivan Gašparovic.  The inclusion of the letter s with caron in the title is very problematic, as this character is not part of the ISO 8859-1 character set the Swedish Wikipedia purports to use.  S with caron however is part of the Microsoft codepage 1252 extension, which means that some browsers will handle it in this context.  Creating an interwiki link that points to this title is impossible.  I urgently suggest moving the article to Ivan Gasparovic until the Swedish Wikipedia is converted to UTF-8.

on Czech and English Wikipedias is ongoing discussion if this is real or some urban myth. Search in Google usualy leads to Wikipedia & copies and blogs. Can you please try to verify it with local sources? Thanks. --Wikimol 21 juni 2005 kl.23.50 (CEST)
It was quite well-covered in Swedish media at that time, so I'm quite sure it isn't any urban myth. However, if you wan't to investigate further you can use the e-mail to the court: lansrattenihalland@dom.se Gunnar Larsson 14 juli 2005 kl.01.03 (CEST)

message: Hi, I am w:nl:gebruiker:Walter of the dutch Wikipedia. I am writing you because your are listed as ambassador of your wiki. I have something to say that I think you will find useful and possibly others of your wiki also.
You know it is not easy for the members of a local wiki to be informed about what is going on in the higher levels of the Wikimedia family. This because of the language problem and the high level of fragmentation of places where you can find information.
I am now making a weekly news letter (Wikizine) that attempts to provide the news of the Wikimedia projects. The concept is to list only a very short description of the news an give the relevant url to the subject. I want it to be short, only give the news that is important for all projects. The target audience include the ambassadors. It is for people who are interested in what it going on outside there own wiki. I emphasize on the news that is practical-technical. The information comes form several "news"-pages on several wikis, the mailinglists and IRC. There will be news I can not discover. If you have news found somewhere or from you own wiki please let my know. wikizine AT wikipedia.be
I can only create one version in something that supposed to be English. I count on the readers to inform there local wiki about the news in there own language.
Wikizine is send by use of the mailinglist Announce-l. It is only used for this. So people can subscribe without being swamped by emails like the lists.
http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/announce-l
I hope that you and others of your wiki will subscribe to Wikizine and give feedback. So that Wikizine can become really a source where Wikimedians can find out what is going on. Greetings, w:nl:gebruiker:Walter PS: do not repond here. I will not see it.

message: Jeg har oversatt den svenske artikkelen til norsk før jeg tittet på den engelske, og da oppdaget jeg store motsetninger i faktagrunnlaget, såpass store at jeg ikke vet hva som er riktig. For eksempel i den engelske artikkelen påstås det at kong Inges hustru Helena er gresk eller russisk. I den svenske påstår det at hun er søster til Blot-Sven. Den engelske artikkelen oppgir flere barn, mens den svenske oppgir kun to barn. Den engelske artikkelen har kilder, hvilket den svenske mangler. Kan vi fikse dette? Kontakt meg gjerne på min norske brukerside. Finn Bjørklid - jeg skriver selvsagt på norsk siden det er et nordisk språk.
replies: text: Jeg registrerer at etter denne meldingen har ligget her en uke har ingen på svenske wikipedia giddet å svare på dette. Konsistens eller nøyaktighet i en artikkel er altså av mindre betydning for svenske wikipedia. Det er trist. Eller, svenske brukere er fullstendig blottet for kunnskaper i et søsterspråk som norsk at de ikke er i stand til å lese og forstå meldingen. Let me then just repeat some of content in English to ease the pain of helping a wiki fellow from another country: There are some differences in the article Inge den äldre in the contrast to the similar English one, or there are errors in or both of them. Is Inge's wife russian or is she the sister of Blot-Sven? --Finn Bjorklid 23 juni 2006 kl.18.54 (CEST)

"Hebrew is a Semitic language of the Afro-Asiatic language family spoken by more than six million people in Israel and by an unknown number of people in Jewish and Israeli communities around the world. In Israel, it is the de facto language of the state and the people, as well as being one of the two official languages (together with Arabic), and it is spoken by the majority of the population.
Modern Hebrew is written from right to left using the Hebrew alphabet, and it is the language of the Bible.
The Hebrew Wikipedia is the Hebrew edition of Wikipedia. This edition began in July 2003 and has over 67,000 articles as of 17 December 2007. If you have any announcements or questions regarding international issues or the Hebrew Wikipedia, you are invited to consult the embassy of the Hebrew-speaking Wikipedia here"
""X is the 21th letter of the Hebrew alphabet and first letter in the word Shvedit - Svenska"

Wikipedia:Ambassaden är en gammal sida, tänkt som kontaktpunkt för folk från andra wikipedior som inte kan vårt språk. I långa omgångar har ingen brytt sig om den, och det har flera gånger föreslagits att istället hänvisa folk från andra wikipedior hit till vår Bybrunn. Till skillnad från många andra projekt tar vi ju inte illa upp om folk skriver på engelska här. Folk får väl skriva på grekiska också om de vill, men då kanske inte så många förstår...

message: The Wikimedia Foundation is preparing to launch a survey that it hopes will be helpful in discussing the future of how projects are funded on Wikipedia and sister sites. (More information about this can be read at :meta:Fundraising and Funds Dissemination/Resource list and :meta:Fundraising and Funds Dissemination/Recommendations, but you don't need to read it to help out here. :)) We would like input from as many people as possible, but the survey translations are not yet completed in many languages, including yours. The English version of the survey is at :meta:Survey of how money should be spent/Questions/en. The Swedish version, currently 18% complete, is at :meta:Survey of how money should be spent/Questions/sv. If you can help, you would be very welcome! 
Translations are done using the "translation tool". If you go to this special page, all you have to do is select your language from the pull-down menu, alphabetical by language code, and click "fetch". It will bring up a table. You can easily see what has been translated and what has not, because untranslated sections are green. Click on the blue text in the left column next to content that has not been translated to open up an editing box. Above the box, the English version is shown, and you can simply enter in your language translation beneath it.
The survey is pretty short, so I hope we can get it completed in time to send it to Swedish-speaking editors in their own language. Thanks for any help you can offer! --Mdennis (WMF) (diskussion) 5 mars 2012 kl. 18.02 (CET)

What I can come up with is "Spels administrationsutskott", but of course feel free to suggest more technical names, that field is still a mistery for my Swedish. What's important to note here is that I don't believe we're talking about a "Gaming and administration committee", but rather about a "Gaming administration committee" (...if that makes any sense to you, as this is not exactly my usual field of interest, the obvious might well escape me).Ninahi8 (diskussion) 6 november 2020 kl. 15.20 (CET)
replies: text: ::::::  I have now amended the article and moved it to Geimmul Gwalli-Wiwonhoe. This isn't my "usual field of interest" either, and I cannot even read the Korean letters, so your comment was very helpful. I hope I did not make any bigger mistakes in amending the article. There would of course be a lot to add, but that I will probably leave to others. –LPfi (diskussion) 6 november 2020 kl. 21.51 (CET)
