Re: [Langcom] Nys wikipedia

[Oliver Stegen]

So this remains a contentious issue. IIRC, previous discussion tried to 
come up with a plan for specialized wikis in heritage languages. Does a 
community where the majority (or even *every* community member) no 
longer speaks the original language have a right to preserve it in WMF 
projects? I would like to see this happen, and nys:wp looks like a great 
prototype and pilot to me. Hundreds of Aboriginal, First Nation and 
Native American languages might follow suit. This also is part of the 
"sum of human knowledge" even if (for sociolinguistic and/or privacy 
reasons) it is not possible to compose continuous texts in those 
languages any longer.


Fwiw,
Oliver

I would not want this to serve as an example to 300 indigenous languages.

Sorry, but this does not, so far, qualify, in my opinion. Replacing all 
examples of “and” with “wer” is not enough.

Re: [Langcom] Chinese Wikiversity

[Oliver Stegen]

While I can't read/understand zh (and thus cannot say anything about the 
*quality* of the pages), I follow your argument. So at this stage, I'd 
be fine with approval.

I'd like to open this subject up for discussion.


Chinese Wikiversity is the largest test within Beta Wikiversity, with 
722 pages (as of today). While the numbers aren't directly comparable, 
that number is higher than the number of pages in each of the smallest 
seven independent Wikiversity projects. Additionally, the interface 
translation is effectively complete in both zh-hans and zh-hant.



Where there is a question here is on community activity. The truth is 
that LangCom should have approved this project around the end of 2014. 
From late 2012 through the end of 2014, this test project met the 
activity requirement just about every single month.  From then until 
late in 2017, activity was consistent, but not quite as high, with 
most months not quite seeing enough activity for approval.



Since late 2017, there has been a great deal of activity, most of 
which comes from anonymous users. Now, I understand that we normally 
don't count in "anonymous" when looking for regular activity. But 
given the magnitude of the activity, the past periods of activity, the 
fact that even without the anonymous contributions there is almost 
enough activity to allow approval—and most of all, the confounding 
factor of the Great Firewall—I'm actually inclined to consider 
approving this.



Please share your thoughts.

Where are we this, its 12 months since I was first contacted by committee
members and told that this is ready to go I'll help get it through. In
Berlin I spoke with the committee they were happy with the project and
requested the translations the key terms to be done.  We have been
translating focusing on translating article content.   we have exceeded the

 Hoi,
 Including abridged has two issues.. It is English and it is not a
 Wikipedia. So there must be another name for the project. The notion of
 removing the abridged is not applicable. When there is sufficient traction
 to have a Wikipedia in the specific language, it will be a Wikipedia and it
 will be the specific language only.

 I take this to James exactly because we need a solution that scales and

Can labels be removed, too? And can adding sitelinks and labels be

And more importantly, can this be made into a policy? Deletion of a wiki is
not a thing that happens often, but every once in a while it does, so it

[Langcom] deleted wiki -> deleted Wikidata sitelinks?

[Amir E. Aharoni]

Hi,

So now the Moldovan Wikipedia (mo) is deleted (
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposals_for_closing_projects/Deletion_of_Moldovan_Wikipedia_2
).

But there are still a few sitelinks on Wikidata to this wiki, e.g.:
* https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5296
* https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q21197
* https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q217

There may be more.

I guess that they should be deleted. All the labels of items and properties
in this language should also be removed. It must be made impossible to add
new ones. The raionale is that the language code is not valid.

I proposed this here, but didn't get any replies yet:
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Delete_a_wiki

Does everybody in the Langcom agree? If nobody objects, I'll make a
technical proposal in Phabricator in a week.
