Hi all, as many of you are already aware, the Wikimedia Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) is currently seeking input from the community to help evaluate financial requests from eleven Wikimedia organization - ten chapters and Amical Wikimedia -, totaling about $5.85 million: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/FDC_portal/Proposals/Community/Review (closing October 31)
To bring this invitation to the attention of editors - whose volunteer work much of the requested money is planned to support - we are currently running CentralNotice banners for logged-in editors on all projects. The first banner reuses bot-updated translations from the last FDC round, but translation help is still needed for the following banners: * https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133_v2&action=translate (this is an alternative banner to the one reused from the last round, testing some wording changes - e.g. it clarifies that comments in another language than English are fine, even though the proposals themselves are all in English) Also, there are country-specific banners inviting editors to comment specifically on the funding request from an organization in that country. They should be translated into the local languages: * German for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133Austria&action=translate * Swedish for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133Sweden&action=translate * Serbian for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133Serbia&action=translate * Dutch for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133Netherlands&action=translate * Hebrew for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133Israel&action=translate * Indic languages for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133India&action=translate * German for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133Germany&action=translate * German, French, Italian, Romansh for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133CH&action=translate * Spanish for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133Argentina&action=translate * Catalan, Spanish for: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133Amical&action=translate (For completeness, there is also: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Centralnotice-tgroup-FDCpropreview20133UK&action=translate - no priority translations here though, as most residents of the UK speak English ;) Many thanks! -- Tilman Bayer Senior Operations Analyst (Movement Communications) Wikimedia Foundation IRC (Freenode): HaeB _______________________________________________ Translators-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/translators-l
