[Wikimediach-l] marketing via emails and homepage
what do you think about including the apropriate wiki page (if it exists) in mails to the list? this would allow an easy click to get the current status and help beeing more transparent. fack. We should start promoting our website as I suggest we put this address on the posters and flyers to look up detailed info as exact location, schedule of the speeches etc. Which address should we promote? ch.wikimedia.org or wikimedia.ch? Here we need quick decision! It would be glad if somebody could remove the Wikimedia Swizerland instead of Wikimedia CH in the from-field of the mails being posted here. (-Michael?) On the ch.wikimedia.org-page there are some navigation problems: *Wikimedia-Portal refers to the dead meta-page *aktuelle Ereignisse could be better translated to Veranstaltungen and also refer to events in the past. *zufälliger Artikel doesn't really make sense in this wiki. *Spenden should link to a page of our own saying that donations to Wikimedia CH are not possible right now. People should wait another two weeks or support Wikimedia Foundation which can be found at ... *Let's list the contact page and bylaws in the navigation bar Is there a setting that German is the default language in the Navigation bar and so on? Users could still opt in for other languages. In the target group of de.wikipedia.org users (readers only) many will not have a sophisticated level of English. If we promote Wikimedia day via website at least the main page and the Wikipedia Day description page should be available for non English speaking users. How do we do this? I suggest a Hauptseite and Veranstaltungen/Wikipedia-Tag 2006 Last but not least we should introduce our website in as many Homepages as possible to increase Pagerank (we don't have any yet!) a very efficient means of markteting would also be to include a maximum of four lines with currently important information we would like that other people should be informed of. what do you think? If we do this let's remove Wikimediach-l@Wikipedia.org at the bottom of the emails. It appears already in the sender field. what is the address of the gep building, so we could put a link to gis.zh, or switzerland door to door behind it on our wiki (http://www.gis.zh.ch/zvv/default.asp?fromLocationId=0toLocationId=0new_selection=usr=www.zvv.chmvu=zvvframes=yesstart_search=yesstart=1protocol=http%3Alg=dmylanguage=dservername=fahrplan.zvv.chfromIsZSG=notoIsZSG=noAZ=AS=queryPageDisplayed=yesgis1=HaltestelleREQ0JourneyStopsS0A=1from.0=REQ0JourneyStopsS0ID=gis2=AdresseREQ0JourneyStopsZ0A=1to.0=REQ0JourneyStopsZ0ID=REQ0JourneyStops1A=1REQ0JourneyStops1G=date=So%2C+30.04.06wDayExt0=Mo%7CDi%7CMi%7CDo%7CFr%7CSa%7CSotime=15%3A10REQ0HafasSearchForw=1)?

Re: [Wikimediach-l] marketing via emails and homepage
Quickly reply: It could be get writing the article Wikimedia CH in more as possible wikipedias (like http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_CH). A second solution is to have http://www.wikimedia.ch (or related link) at foot of our signature. If we reply at mailing list these replies are stored in a archive which are processed by search engines.

Here we need quick decision! I think the decision has already been made: We will use www.wikimedia.ch for the public/press members.wikimedia.ch as a members-only-wiki board.wikimedia.ch as a board-only-wiki We should asap remove all content from ch.wikimedia.org and meta.wikimedia.org (and replace it with links to the new adress), to ensure that no Wikimedia CH material lies on foundation servers (liability etc.). (Of course, there can be entries in [[meta:Wikimedia chapters]] etc.) At the moment wikimedia.ch is a permanent redirect to ch.wikimedia.org, so it's okay to promote this adress. It would be glad if somebody could remove the Wikimedia Swizerland instead of Wikimedia CH in the from-field of the mails being posted here. (-Michael?) I will (I thought I had already but I see that I forgot) On the ch.wikimedia.org-page there are some navigation problems: *Wikimedia-Portal refers to the dead meta-page As a matter of time, I only changed it to A general overview will be provided here soon., please amend it! *aktuelle Ereignisse could be better translated to Veranstaltungen and also refer to events in the past.

Don't forget, however, that this is based on a voluntary categorisation by the editor. I don't know how many of them does it on de.wikipedia.org, but I quickly checked a few Swiss editors on en.wikipedia.org, and none of them is in such a category. I have not looked too much into it, however, because the servers are crawling at the moment. Don't know about fr.w.o, but any statistic based on these category will obligatorily underestimate the number of users (it can still be useful as a lower bound, of course). But you can evaluate the number of pages to swiss related topics by scanning in http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Filzstift/wikisign.org to the string !-- schweizbezogen -- or by catscan using http://tools.wikimedia.de/~daniel/WikiSense/CategoryIntersect.php?wikilang=dewikifam=.wikipedia.orgbasecat=Schweizbasedeep=8mode=cstagcat=tagdeep=3go=Scannenuserlang=de On en.w.o, the categorisation of Swiss topics is pretty good, so starting from Category:Switzerland and looking at the sub categories should give a good indication about the number of Swiss-related topics. Don't know about the number of hits, though. Frédéric ___ www.wikimedia.ch Wikimedia CH website Wikimediach-l mailing list http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediach-l
