檔案存廢討論：通知

您好。您上傳的檔案File:CoolloudSlogan.jpg已列入Wikipedia:檔案存廢討論中，具體原因及討論請參閱該頁面。圖片可能是缺乏圖像版權標誌等重要資訊，如是者請盡快補充，否則文件一定會被刪除。同時藉此機會提醒您，維基百科極為注重著作權，請參考相關的Wikipedia:圖像使用守則#版權、Wikipedia:版權資訊#圖像指導以及wikipedia:合理使用準則等指導頁面。謝謝！--Wing (留言) 2009年10月15日 (四) 18:14 (UTC)

關於條目科景

感謝來信，實話說兩個引用都不合格。一個屬於自我參照（自己介紹自己）；一個則打不開，屬於無法查證的來源。現條目還是等同於沒有來源佐證其關照度。—Walter Grassroot™ |留墨存香 2009年11月1日 (日) 20:18 (UTC)

• 通常來說，一個內容的知名度本身並不需要有同時具備關注度的網站提供，但是我們發現很多網站本身並不覺得這樣的關注度（的確太多）。現在達成部分共識的標準僅僅限於書籍知名度（更精確地說電子書的關注度必須同時滿足提供其網站自身具備關注度，我知道這個有點繞口，但是這是為了最大限度保證維基百科免予攻擊），總之，網站的知名度標準還是在討論中，所以閣下可以自行摘取那個知名度標準，但是還望閣下留意，如果有機會的話，儘量補充。閣下可以參考維基百科:關注度 (網站)，並進行有針對性地改進。我相信等諸如此類標準確定後，維基百科會有一個較大範圍的清理和維護，在此之前閣下如果有心，不妨提攜以下此類條目，使其免遭刪除。—Walter Grassroot™ |留墨存香 2009年11月1日 (日) 23:22 (UTC)
  • 不必客氣，在下作為巡查員通常來說是希望能夠在來源上把關，不過絕大情況並沒有如閣下般好生客氣，我被罵得狗血噴頭反而成了常態呵呵。之所以這樣做，對維基也是有幫助的，否則維基中需要清理的條目很多(分類:需要清理的條目)，現在2006年的都囤積在那裏，如果在進入的時候把關不嚴，對於負責清理的朋友們而言更是增加負擔。我看到在下對於註釋等維基編輯技巧很熟練，希望您也能夠參加到這些過程中。祝編輯愉快！—Walter Grassroot™ |留墨存香 2009年11月2日 (一) 01:43 (UTC)

主要是因為他打廣告的關係，恢複就不可能了。扼要地介紹一下自己或善用Wikipedia:用戶框吧。—AT 2011年9月15日 (四) 16:32 (UTC)

其實其他用戶掛G11時，多數都會自動通知他相關訊息，因此他應該可以基本知道自己做得不當的地方。當然，如果他有任何疑問，歡迎直接找我，我會盡我所能指導他。—AT 2011年9月16日 (五) 08:03 (UTC)

Wikidata weekly summary #91

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

• Discussions
  • Discussion about the RfD process
  • Discussion about Notability of Wikisource on Wikidata
  • Open RfAs: Lymantria, Lavallen
• Other Noteworthy Stuff
  • Wikidata reached 100000000 edits
  • d:User:Dexbot is the first bot to reach 10000000 edits
  • Wikisource is due to receive Wikidata Phase 1 on January the 14th
• Did you know?
  • Newest properties: none
  • Newest task forces: MediaWiki task force
  • Showcase items: Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (Q309988)
  • Fun Fact: According to Wikidata, this is the year of 2004 (Q2014)
• DevelopmentWord from John
  • To give this section some life, since the development team had their holidays last week meaning nothing really got done (let them have one week off at least), I'll say a few words. 2014 is a new year and thus a new start, over the last year Wikidata celebrated its first birthday which brought reflection over what Wikidata had accomplish. Therefore I want to use the start of 2014 to reflect what Wikidata can do. For my personal over view see this page. For the summary, while it is meant to be a weekly simple update, I feel this can be used a lot more effective to put across not only what happened on Wikidata but things about Wikidata on other wikis, I am hoping to start a section over this within the next few weeks. If you have any suggestions for the summary, feel free to drop me a message at meta or Wikidata. Thanks.
• Monthly Tasks
  • Fix a format or content violation for the Public holiday (P832) propery
  • Hack on one of these.
  • Help develop the next summary here!

問題

• 於1月21日，通用語言選擇器在所有維基媒體站點關閉因為它使得頁面載入緩慢。如果您希望使用網頁字體，或基於網絡的鍵盤樣式，您需要在您的用戶設置選項中勾選複選框以再次啟用。如果今後性能問題能得到解決，此功能將重新啟用。 [37]
• 同日有約20分鐘，由於伺服器負荷過高，CSS和JavaScript載入出現困難。

Wikidata weekly summary #97

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.

• Discussions
  • Let's redesign Wikidata's interface
• Reasonator
  • By hovering over a wikilink you will see the first paragraph.
  • The "personal settings" allow you to import your Babel info from Wikidata. This can be used to restrict the random items you will get.
  • The first iteration of "on the fly" text generation for English. It works for "humans" and, is completely based on the available Wikidata information.
  • You can now add labels in your language from within Reasonator. Technically oAuth is used. It now takes just one click to add a label in your language.
• Did you know?
  • Newest properties: IAAF ID, Lagrangian point
  • Showcase items: Vesta (Q3030)
• Development
  • Wrote performance tests so we can track performance improvements better

  • Started refactoring and fixing issues with automatically created summaries that are, for example, created by bots via API calls.
  • Fixed an issue with OAuth on Wikidata because of permissions
  • Started code review of the code the student team is working on for suggestions
  • Discussed updates to the data model document to be able to update it to the actual implementation

  • Further work on TimeParsers move to the backend
• Monthly Tasks
  • Fix a format or content violation for the belongs to jurisdiction (P1001) property
  • Hack on one of these.
  • Help develop the next summary here!

  • Reduced page load time significantly once again. Page load time was cut to roughly 2/3. For now we’re happy with the resulting page load times. We’ll start concentrating on other areas of the user interface now.
  • Fixed faulty selection handling when adding a property using the keyboard (bugzilla:62868)
  • Worked on fixing issues with handling of spaces in quantities (bugzilla:62567)
  • Fixed miscount of Wikidata changes on the client watchlist (bugzilla:45812)

  • Worked on the code which propagates page moves from the clients into Wikidata as a preparation for allowing page deletions to appear on Wikidata
  • Made the Wikibase extension work with the new 「Compact language links」 Beta feature and a bit more independent from the UniversalLanguageSelector in general
  • The student team working on the entity suggester has finished the first version of it. The code is being reviewed now and is hopefully ready for deployment soon. Once it is deployed it will show you what new properties you could add to an item.
• Monthly Tasks
