This is a place for discussing the main page.
For general discussions go to Wikipedia:Nzọr ogbako.

Hi,
The main page here is quite broken. It is full of red links. It is even more broken on mobile phones, and shows almost nothing.
The current code of the main page is too complicated and too hard to edit.
I recommend starting from scratch: Deleting everything and putting something very simple instead. Later it can be made more complex and designed, but in the beginning it should at least be usable.
Here's a very simple suggestion for a first version to begin from: Ọbanife:Amire80/mp.
If no-one objects, I'll replace the current page with this next week.
If anyone has better proposals, I'll be happy to hear them.

Hello Amir E. Aharoni,

The proposed simple fix is okay.

I removed some of the diacritics as they are not used for those particular words in Igbo language.

Thank you for this proposal.

Hi,
What is the right name for Wikipedia in Igbo?
The logo at the top says "Wikipedia", but the main page says "Wikipidia", and there is also the article Wikipidia.
So what is correct? It should be consistent everywhere.
Thanks! --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 07:50, 7 Ọnwaàsatọ 2019 (UTC)

Hello Amir E. Aharoni,

The correct one is ”Wikipidia".

See the Wikidata item for other WP projects with this template. -- Deborahjay (talk) 09:21, 16 Ọnwaànọ 2020 (UTC)

Adding [[Òtù:Infobox templates|Person]] to this page had the following effect:
* The template page Àtụ:Infobox person was added to the category, alphabetized as Person
* All the individual pages using the Infobox person template also appear in the category, alphabetized under P.
The first is the desired outcome, but not the second. The infobox still isn't displaying. This is beyond my technical knowledge, so I'm documenting the problem here.  -- Deborahjay (talk) 10:53, 29 Ọnwaìtoolu 2020 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. However, creating article in English and not in the local language is not allowed. Thanks DARIO SEVERI (talk) 02:27, 11 Ọnwaìse 2020 (UTC)


Greetings, Chris! The background and objectives you state on your User page encourage me to contact you here. Though I don't speak any African language, I have contributed a total of over 8K edits (mostly in ZU, YO, and XH). I use the WP editing skill set and proofreading experience to improve these Wikipedias where local editors and administrators are rarely available. My focus is on making content accessible by creating categories and linking them to Wikidata. The Igbo WP can be improved, for example, with biography and geography categories. Shall we discuss this? Cheers, Deborahjay (talk) 09:31, 29 Ọnwaàsatọ 2021 (UTC)
Hi, Deborah,
That's an interesting idea you brought up. I'm passionate about everyone having access to knowledge.  Could you let me know how you'd like us to go about what you have in mind? I'm willing to help achieve your goal.

Greetings, Onyinye. Thank you for creating the page Emeka Ihedioha. It's very well formatted and full of information. I do have two questions:
* What was the source language of the translation? From a Wikipedia page or another text?
* At the beginning of the page (above the Table of Contents) are several repeated sentences, though not exact duplicates. Would you please clean them up by deleting the unnecessary content.
(I don't speak Igbo, I mainly do proofreading in small African WPs.) --Cheers, Deborahjay (talk) 16:49, 21 Ọnwaàsatọ 2020 (UTC)

Okwu:Emeka Ihedioha

Please clarify the two versions of his name:
* Emeka Ihedioha is the page name on the Igbo WP and the English WP
* Chukwuemeka Ihedioha on the Hausa WP and in Wikidata
The lead sentence could show the full name in bold type, and can indicate the popular form of the name, e.g. Chukwuemeka "Emeka" Ihedioha. The help of a native speaker of Igbo is needed here. -- Deborahjay (talk) 12:16, 22 Ọnwaàsatọ 2020 (UTC)

Dear Oby, I'm visiting the Igbo Wikipedia after a break, also in honor of International Women's Day.

Wikimedians for Sustainable Development - April 2023 Newsletter

Good day Ezeilo,
My name is Reading Beans and I edit majorly at the English Wikipedia. I recently brought en:Igbo literature (an article I started from scratch) to good article status.
I have a native understanding of Igbo language (because I am Igbo too) and I had to translate it to Igbo. But, I do have a problem; most templates for referencing in the English Wikipedia does not exist here.
And so, I was wondering if you could make a request at meta for the creation of these templates. I'm talking about templates such as ￼ or , but most importantly sfn. Best, Reading Beans (ṅkátá) 11:11, 10 Ọktoba 2023 (UTC)

@Reading Beans Hello, thank you so much for your work. Daalụ. However l don't understand the template you are referring to . We  Can  chat better with email if you don't mind. Mine is oby.ezeilo@gmail.com.

:@Oby Ezeilo, I sent a mail to you. Best, Reading Beans (ṅkátá) 17:10, 10 Ọktoba 2023 (UTC)

This is our twenty-seventh newsletter, a sort of year-in-review for 2023.
Dear Wikimedians for Sustainable Development,
As we bid farewell to 2023, we reflect on a year that has been an uneven year for our user group. While the journey has been marked by some truly inspiring events, most of our efforts have been largely uncoordinated and the user group hasn't been the support it could have been. Yet, there's a glimmer of hope and a world of potential for 2024.
Highlights of 2023:
;Newsletters Galore: We kicked off the year with zeal, sharing updates and inspiration through four newsletters. The number of things happening in the movement is astounding, but we need to rethink the format of the newsletter going into the next year.
;Growing Strong: The Wikimedians for Sustainable Development family welcomed 33 new members in 2023. Your passion and dedication continue to inspire us, and we look forward to nurturing this community spirit in the year ahead.
;Wikimania Talks: Our voices echoed far and wide at Wikimania, where several members of our community took the virtual stage to share insights and ideas about everything from Wikipedians-in-Residence's to open data. Your contributions showcased our commitment to sustainable development on a global scale.
;Content Creation Magic: Throughout the year, our extended community demonstrated incredible dedication to expanding the knowledge base on Wikipedia. Countless hours were spent creating and curating content that aligns with our mission, contributing to a more sustainable digital ecosystem.
;Campaigning hard: We saw a large variety of campaigns, from writing challenges to editathons. The willingness to experiment with new formats and partners, as well as learning from past efforts, shows great promise for the future.
Acknowledging Challenges:
While we celebrate these achievements, we acknowledge that 2023 presented its fair share of challenges. A lack of global coordination reminded us that the road to sustainable development is not always linear. However, it is precisely these challenges that fuel our determination to work together more cohesively in the coming year and proof that the user group is needed.
Hopeful Anticipation for 2024:
As we turn the page to 2024, let's carry forward the lessons learned and the successes celebrated. We are optimistic that, with renewed energy and a collective commitment, we will overcome obstacles and create an even more impactful and connected Wikimedians for Sustainable Development community.
Here's to a year of collaboration, growth, and making a lasting impact on the world through our shared passion for sustainability. Together, we can turn challenges into opportunities and pave the way for a brighter future.
Wishing you all a joyous holiday season and a Happy New Year!
Warm regards,
User:Ainali, User:Daniel Mietchen
PS. We have started writing our yearly report, please add your activities to it.

Hello Friend,
Apologies as this message is not in your native language.
The WMF language team is reaching out to you based on your valuable contributions to the Lithuanian Wikipedia as an editor who frequently uses the Content Translation tool.
We appreciate the great work you are doing in Lithuanian Wikipedia to increase content to ensure that knowledge is available in your Wikipedia and understand that it is annoying to encounter difficulties while translating articles or deleted content afterwards. Therefore, the WMF Language team will like to understand from your experience, the issues you encounter when using the tool to translate content.
Our observations
We noticed that the Content Translation tool is not used frequently and sometimes the articles created are deleted. We say this because, from our statistics, 6813 articles were added to Lithuanian Wikipedia in 2020; out of the above figure, only 67 of them were translated using the Content Translation tool and 67% (45 articles) were deleted. While the tool has been frequently used with low deletion ratios on many wikis, the deletion rate and the tool's low usage signals a problem or deficiencies peculiar to Lithuanian Wikipedia. As the Content Translation tool can increase content creation in your Wikipedia and is a proven excellent way to efficiently Introduce newcomers to adding content and expand on existing ones.
Our request
So, we are reaching out to you because we want you to participate in a survey. The survey will help us understand your challenges with the tool, the aspect of the tool you think needs improvement that will enable your community to use it more and reduce the rate of content deletion.
Please follow this link to the Survey:
Take the Survey
To know how the information collected from the survey will be used, please read the Privacy Statement.

If you are not comfortable with taking the survey, that is fine. You can still provide us with feedback via email on the following questions:
*What is the most challenging part of translating an article using the Content Translation tool? Example (adding the references, the infobox, templates, publishing, etc.
*Why is the above the most challenging part of translating articles in your Wikipedia?
*In your opinion, what changes can be made to the tool that can make more people in your community use the tool more frequently?
*Why do you think some translated articles are being deleted?
So please, feel free to give us feedback in any way that is most convenient for you.
Thank you so much, as we look forward to your response.

Your feedback is needed - Improving the Content Translation tool

!

Apologies as this message is not in your language,  to your language.
The WMF Language team has added another machine translation (MT) system for Content Translation in your Wikipedia called MinT; you can use MinT machine translation when translating Wikipedia articles using the Content and Section Translation tool.

The WMF Language team provides the MinT service. It is hosted in the Wikimedia Foundation Infrastructure with neural machine translation models that other organizations have released with an open-source license. MinT integrates translation based on NLLB-200, OpusMT and IndicTrans2 which is the model MinT is using in your Wikipedia.  This MT is set as optional in your Wikipedia. Still, you can choose not to use it by selecting "Start with empty paragraph" from the "Initial Translation" dropdown menu.

Since MinT is hosted in the WMF Infrastructure and the models are open source, it adheres to Wikipedia's policies about attribution of rights, your privacy as a user and brand representation. You can find more information about the MinT Machine translation and the models on this page.

Please note that the use of the MinT MT is not compulsory. However, we would want your community to:
*use it to improve the quality of the Machine Translation service
*provide feedback about the service and its quality, and ask questions about this addition.

We trust that introducing this MT is a good support to the Content Translation tool.

Thank you!

As part of fulfilling a wishlist proposal of providing audio links that play on click, this wiki will soon be able to use the inline audio player implemented by Phonos.
With the inline audio player, you can add text-to-speech audio snippets to wiki pages by simply using a tag:

The above tag will render the text to a speaker, and clicking on it plays the audio instantly without taking you to another page. A common example where you can use this feature is in adding pronunciation to words as illustrated on the English Wiktionary below.

Apologies if this message is not in your language,  to your language.
This wiki will soon be able to use the inline audio player implemented by the Phonos extension. This is part of fulfilling a wishlist proposal of providing audio links that play on click.
With the inline audio player, you can add text-to-speech audio snippets to wiki pages by simply using a tag:
<phonos file="audio file" label="Listen"/>
The above tag will show the text next to a speaker icon, and clicking on it will play the audio instantly without taking you to another page. A common example where you can use this feature is in adding pronunciation to words as illustrated on the English Wiktionary below.
{{audio|en|En-uk-English.oga|Audio (UK)}}
Could become:
<phonos file="En-uk-English.oga" label="Audio (UK)"/>
The inline audio player will be available in your wiki in 2 weeks time; in the meantime, we would like you to read about the features and give us feedback or ask questions about it in this talk page.
Thank you!

Friends!
Apologies as this message is not in your native language, .
The WMF Language team is pleased to let you know that we would like to enable the Section and Content translation tool in this Wikipedia. For this, our team will love you to read about the tool and test the Section Translation tool so you can:
*Give us your feedback
*Ask us questions
*Tell us know how to improve it
Below is background information about the tools and how you can test the Section translation tool.
Background information
Content Translation has been a successful tool for editors to create content in their language. More than one million articles have been created across all languages since the tool was released in 2015. However, the tool is not out of beta in this Wikipedia, limiting the discoverability of the tool and its use and blocking the enablement of the Section translation in your Wikipedia.
Section Translation extends the capabilities of Content Translation to support mobile devices. On mobile, the tool will:
*Guide you to translate one section at a time in order to expand existing articles or create new ones
*Make it easy to transfer knowledge across languages anytime from your mobile device
We plan to enable the tools in the next 2 weeks if there are no objections from your community. After it is enabled, we’ll monitor the content created with the tools and process all the feedback. In any case, feel free to raise any concerns or questions you may already have as a reply to this message or on the project talk page.
Try the Section translation tool
Before the enablement, you can try the current implementation of the tool in our testing instance. Once it is enabled, you’ll have access to https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ContentTranslation with your mobile device. You can select an article to translate, and machine translation will be provided as a starting point for editors to improve.
Provide feedback
Please provide feedback about Section translation on the project talk page. We want to  hear about your impressions on
*The section translation tool
*What do you think about our plans to enable it
*Your ideas for improving the tool
Thanks and we look forward to your feedback and questions.

Plans to enable Content and Section Translation tool in your Wikipedia

Bantu kami dalam menyempurnakan Wikistories

Halo, rekan-rekan pengurus!
Perkenalkan nama saya Uzoma Ozurumba, merupakan Community Relations Specialist dari Wikimedia Foundation yang saat ini mengerjakan proyek Tim Inuka. Melalui pesan ini, saya ingin meminta kesediaan Anda sebagai pengurus Wikipedia bahasa Indonesia untuk mengisi survei mengenai penerapan Wikistories di komunitas Anda.
Wikistories telah digunakan oleh kontributor sejak pertama kali diaktifkan secara beta. Melalui survei ini, kami ingin mengetahui lebih jauh mengenai beberapa hal berikut:
sudut pandang pengurus Wikipedia terhadap Wikistories agar bisa dilakukan evaluasi
cara memperbaiki kualitas dari stories yang sudah dibuat
melihat tren (baik itu positif maupun negatif) mengenai kualitas stories di Wikipedia
Silakan kunjungi pranala ini untuk mulai mengisi survei (waktu pengerjaan kira-kira 12 menit). Masukan Anda sangat berarti bagi kami dalam menyempurnakan Wikistories ke depannya. Apabila ada yang ingin ditanyakan, silakan sampaikan di sini atau kunjungi halaman pembicaraan proyek Wikistories.
Terima kasih!
Atas nama Tim Inuka Wikimedia Foundation

Recent changes
*The mobile site history pages now use the same HTML as the desktop history pages. If you hear of any problems relating to mobile history usage please point them to the phabricator task.
*On most wikis, admins can now block users from making specific actions. These actions are: uploading files, creating new pages, moving (renaming) pages, and sending thanks. The goal of this feature is to allow admins to apply blocks that are adequate to the blocked users' activity. Learn more about "action blocks".
Changes later this week
*  The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from . It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from . It will be on all wikis from  (calendar).
* Talk pages permalinks that included diacritics and non-Latin script were malfunctioning. This issue is fixed.
Future changes
* 24 Wikipedias with Reference Tooltips as a default gadget are encouraged to remove that default flag. This would make Reference Previews the new default for reference popups, leading to a more consistent experience across wikis. For 46 Wikipedias with less than 4 interface admins, the change is already scheduled for mid-February, unless there are concerns. The older Reference Tooltips gadget will still remain usable and will override this feature, if it is available on your wiki and you have enabled it in your settings.

Recent changes
* The mobile visual editor is now the default editor for users who never edited before, at a small group of wikis.  Research  shows that users using this editor are slightly more successful publishing the edits they started, and slightly less successful publishing non-reverted edits. Users who defined the wikitext editor as their default on desktop will get the wikitext editor on mobile for their first edit on mobile as well.
*  The mw.config value wgGlobalGroups now only contains groups that are active in the wiki. Scripts no longer have to check whether the group is active on the wiki via an API request. A code example of the above is: if (/globalgroupname/.test(mw.config.get("wgGlobalGroups"))).
Changes later this week
*  The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from . It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from . It will be on all wikis from  (calendar).
Future changes
* The right to change edit tags (changetags) will be removed from users in Wikimedia sites, keeping it by default for admins and bots only. Your community can ask to retain the old configuration on your wiki before this change happens. Please indicate in this ticket to keep it for your community before the end of March 2024.

Recent changes
* The Special:Book page (as well as the associated "Create a book" functionality) provided by the old Collection extension has been removed from all Wikisource wikis, as it was broken. This does not affect the ability to download normal books, which is provided by the Wikisource extension.
* Wikitech now uses the next-generation Parsoid wikitext parser by default to generate all pages in the Talk namespace.  Report any problems on the Known Issues discussion page. You can use the ParserMigration extension to control the use of Parsoid; see the ParserMigration help documentation for more details.
* Maintenance on etherpad is completed. If you encounter any issues, please indicate in this ticket.
*  Gadgets allow interface admins to create custom features with CSS and JavaScript. The Gadget and Gadget_definition namespaces and gadgets-definition-edit user right were reserved for an experiment in 2015, but were never used. These were visible on Special:Search and Special:ListGroupRights. The unused namespaces and user rights are now removed. No pages are moved, and no changes need to be made.
* A usability improvement to the "Add a citation" in Wikipedia workflow has been made, the insert button was moved to the popup header.
Changes later this week
*  The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from . It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from . It will be on all wikis from  (calendar).
Future changes
*  All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on March 20. This is planned at 14:00 UTC. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis in the coming weeks.
* The HTML markup of headings and section edit links will be changed later this year to improve accessibility. See Heading HTML changes for details. The new markup will be the same as in the new Parsoid wikitext parser. You can test your gadget or stylesheet with the new markup if you add ?useparsoid=1 to your URL (more info) or turn on Parsoid read views in your user options (more info).

* After consulting with various communities, the line height of the text on the Minerva skin will be increased to its previous value of 1.65. Different options for typography can also be set using the options in the menu, as needed.
*The active link color in Minerva will be changed to provide more consistency with our other platforms and best practices.
* Structured data on Commons will no longer ask whether you want to leave the page without saving. This will prevent the “information you’ve entered may not be saved” popups from appearing when no information have been entered. It will also make file pages on Commons load faster in certain cases. However, the popups will be hidden even if information has indeed been entered. If you accidentally close the page before saving the structured data you entered, that data will be lost.

* Web browsers can use tools called extensions. There is now a Chrome extension called Citation Needed which you can use to see if an online statement is supported by a Wikipedia article. This is a small experiment to see if Wikipedia can be used this way. Because it is a small experiment, it can only be used in Chrome in English.

Once you enable it, your in-progress edits will be stored in your web browser, and if you accidentally close an editing window or your browser or computer crashes, you will be prompted to recover the unpublished text. Please leave any feedback on the project talk page. This was the #8 wish in the 2023 Community Wishlist Survey.
* Initial results of Edit check experiments have been published. Edit Check is now deployed as a default feature at the wikis that tested it. Let us know if you want your wiki to be part of the next deployment of Edit check.
* Readers using the Minerva skin on mobile will notice there has been an improvement in the line height across all typography settings.

Hello user:Chinyere Ezinwa 1993,
My name is user:Ceslause from Igbo Wikimedians User Group.
For our Igbo Wikipedia Nigerian Women in Education and Sports, you started translating an article titled "Nneka Ogwumike", which you have not finished till date. This has prevented us form filing the project report, and I beg you to complete the translation on or before 27th September 2021,to enable us submit the project report this weekend.
Regards,
user:Ceslause

Okwu ọbanife:AfricanLibrarian

Greetings, dear Librarian! I just saw the fine page Velekete Slave Market you created, which has since been translated for the Yoruba Wikipedia. As a technical volunteer there, I suggested the page name be in the local language and the English page name be made into a #REDIRECT to the Yoruba. I don't know whether the Igbo WP has a similar guideline for the language of page names. Other than this - see :en:Igbo people in the Atlantic slave trade in the English Wikipedia. It has nearly two dozen references and might be worth translation into Igbo for the igwiki. Cheers, Deborahjay (talk) 11:43, 28 Ọnwaàsatọ 2021 (UTC)
Thank you Deborahjay! I will find out if te title can be changed to Igbo. I will call in others who know better into this discussion in a bit.
Cheers

Okwu:Aro people

There is an earlier page on this topic:
* Ndi Arọ
That page is already connected to the Wikidata item :d:Q2863480. Suggested action needed:
* Merge of this content to the page Ndi Arọ so that nothing is lost.
* Change of the page name Aro people to #REDIRECT to the page with the Igbo name.
I can't take this further as I don't know the language, but I'll be available to help with the technical actions. Deborahjay (talk) 12:20, 31 Ọnwaàsatọ 2021 (UTC)
