Reisbeurzen voor Wikimania
bewerkenVan 14-18 augustus vindt in Stockholm Wikimania plaats, de jaarlijkse internationale bijeenkomst van de Wikimediagemeenschap. Actieve Wikimedianen kunnen bij Wikimedia Nederland een beurs aanvragen voor deelname aan Wikimania. Dit kunnen volledige beurzen zijn voor reis, entree én verblijf, of een beurs voor een deel van de kosten.
Net als vorig jaar zou Wikimedia Nederland graag naast ervaren Wikimania-bezoekers ook tenminste twee Wikimedianen willen steunen die nog nooit naar Wikimania zijn geweest. Wil je Wikimania (misschien voor het eerst) meemaken, dan kun je met dit formulier een beurs aanvragen. Aanvragen moeten voor 1 juni worden ingediend.
Zoals altijd: je hoeft geen lid te zijn van Wikimedia Nederland om voor een beurs in aanmerking te komen. SRientjes (overleg) 16 mei 2019 12:55 (CEST)

Recent changes
- The report for phase 1 of the talk pages consultation 2019 has been published. Communities are invited to start phase 2 of the consultation on their wikis.
Problems
- File descriptions for files from Commons were not shown properly on other Wikimedia wikis for a few days. For example the image descriptions and license information were missing. This has now been fixed. [2][3]
- Some diffs show an error message when you try to see them. The developers are working on fixing it. It could be because of some edit comments. [4][5]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 mei. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 mei. It will be on all wikis from 23 mei (calendar).
Meetings
- You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 22 mei at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.
Future changes
- The content translation tool on Wikipedia can use machine translations. There is a system to stop translations where the editors do not fix machine translation mistakes. This warns or stops them if they seem to just copy what the machine translation gives them. If this system is too strict or not strict enough you can tell the language team. [6]
- The Wikidata
wbeditentityAPI endpoint will remove all aliases if the request includes an empty alias. This is how it supposed to work. It has not been working this way because of a bug. This will start on 12 June. [7]
