I don't know exactly how it's configured on WPAR, but I think this is only displayed to anonymous (not logged) users. This is certainly a good approach to not bother logged users who are mostly pretty good informed about such topics. What I find interesting with this notice system is that this is really not intrusive (only a line), each user can remove a message easily, you can specify your audience and vary your messages. > I see since early November they have about 3 thousands visit per day to > their project page on Kiwix. > <https://ar.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%85%D9%8A%D8%AF%D9%8A%D8%A7%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%83%D9%8A:Gadget-AdvancedSiteNotices.js&action=edit> > > <https://ar.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A8:%D8%A5%D8%B9%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%86%D8%A7%D8%AA_%D9%85%D9%88%D9%82%D8%B9_%D9%85%D8%AD%D8%B3%D9%86%D8%A9&action=edit> > > <https://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%83%D9%8A%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%AF%D9%8A%D8%A7:%D9%83%D9%8A%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%83%D8%B3> > > <https://ar.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%82%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A8:%D8%A5%D8%B9%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%86%D8%A7%D8%AA_%D9%85%D9%88%D9%82%D8%B9_%D9%85%D8%AD%D8%B3%D9%86%D8%A9/%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%AF%D8%A9&action=edit> > > <http://stats.grok.se/ar/201212/%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%83%D9%8A%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%AF%D9%8A%D8%A7:%D9%83%D9%8A%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%83%D8%B3> Yes and I get ~500 visitors per day from WPAR... but IMO the WPAR "landing page" could be improved to be more convincing (that's only my opinion). > I now see there's also a page about it: > <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Offline_Projects/Case_Studies/2012_ARWP_Site_Notice> Yes, IMO this is important on WPAR. >> WPFA and WPES (still running) have had both setup a central notice >> during two weeks. >> >> I have heard nothing about WPIT. > > Ok.

Should I? Is that good enough? The video is now two years old? Someone motivated to make a new screencast? This would be really great... especially with the new kiwix server feature in the 0.9rc2. > Where should I prepare a page to point Italian users to?

Great, what I propose is: * A landing page on WPIT, like on WPAR where users are redirected. On this page you can explain with a Wikipedia focus what it is, etc... You may also provide directly a link to download Kiwix or Kiwix with Wikipedia. * Would be great to propose on www.kiwix.org a welcome page in Italian (like we have in Farsi, German, French, Spanish...) at http://www.kiwix.org/index.php/Main_Page/it > I'll then propose a sitenotice on it.wiki; if we had a translatable page > we could also propose a centralnotice. Would be awesome.
