اسٹیورڈ الیکشن برائے سال ۲۰۰۹
2009-01-20
The Stewards election 2009 will start on February 1, 2009 and will end on February 22, 2009.
Stewards perform technical tasks on all Wikimedia wikis, based on community consensus: modifying user access, viewing user information in cases of abuse, and so on (see details). While current Stewards are to be confirmed, also you can become a Steward if applying for this until January 25, see the application guidelines. The Board of Trustees will select new Stewards from the applicants in this election.
Help translating our CentralNotice for this Stewards election!

FlaggedRevs review feature
2008-11-28
Beside the elder Patroller extension for patrolling recent changes and new pages, there is a highly configurable MediaWiki extension, called FlaggedRevs.
FlaggedRevs – being already enabled on several Wikimedia wikis – is a toolset for transparent and ensured article patrolling and/or for reliable quality assurance by specifying certain accurate article revisions that are shown to the public by default. Those stable article versions are identified in a release process by a trustable editorial staff and/or get approved by a reviewing expert staff. It is even possible to mark (tag) revisions of selected articles for different purposes, let's say for an article validation aiming on a print edition. Furthermore, there is the possibility to let your readers give you evaluative feedbacks.
FlaggedRevs will make your wiki more reliable and thus more reputable over the time!
Have a look on Meta's description, the technical description and the guidance for requesting FlaggedRevs!

GNU Free Documentation License 1.3
2009-01-17
The GNU Free Documentation License has been released in version 1.3 by its responsible Free Software Foundation.
This is not least a result of a request by our Board of Trustees in December 2007, trying to offer us a possibility to also license and share our wiki contents under the easier to use Creative Commons CC-BY-SA (Attribution + ShareAlike) license.
The Wikimedia Foundation will soon organize a community wide referendum to decide whether our GNU FDL licensed wikis should be made availabe under the terms of this free and common CC-BY-SA license too, see dual-licensing.
See also a detailed summary for further reading.(source)
On Meta you can find further information (FAQ) and can discuss the licensing update process of our wikis.
A vote on Meta is scheduled to begin on February 9, 2009 and will last until March 9, 2009.

Global bots
2008-11-01
On Meta, a bot account now can get a bot flag for all wikis that allow global bots!
To be able to run also on your ویکی لغت, the community has to explicitly permit global bots by local policy, see list.
To qualify for global bot access, the following requirements must be met by a bot:
- it must only maintain interlanguage links or fix double-redirects
- it must already be active on several wikis, with long-term contributions to back up its trustworthiness
