== What future IdeaLab campaigns would you like to see? ==

[[File:IdeaLab logo dark orange.png|100px|right]]
Hi there,

I’m Jethro, and I’m seeking your help in deciding topics for new [[IdeaLab]] campaigns that could be run starting next year.  These campaigns aim to bring in proposals and solutions from communities that address a need or problem in Wikimedia projects.  I'm interested in hearing your preferences and ideas for campaign topics!

Here’s how to participate: 
*[[Grants:IdeaLab/Future_IdeaLab_Campaigns|'''Learn more about this consultation''']]
*[http://www.allourideas.org/idealab_campaigns Vote on and submit new campaign topics in '''the AllOurIdeas Survey''']
*[[Grants talk:IdeaLab/Future_IdeaLab_Campaigns|Discuss campaign topics and ask questions on '''the IdeaLab talk page''']]

Take care,

== 2016 Community Wishlist Survey ==

Hi,

You’re getting this message because you participated in the [[2015 Community Wishlist Survey]] and we want to make sure you don't miss it this year – or at least can make the conscious choice to ignore if it you want to. The 2015 survey decided what the [[Community Tech]] team should work on during 2016. It was also the focus of Wikimedia hackathons and work by other developers. You can see the status of wishes from the 2015 wishlist at [[2015 Community Wishlist Survey/Results]].

The [[2016 Community Wishlist Survey]] is now open for wishes. You can create proposals until November 20. You will be able to vote on which wishes you think are best or most important between November 28 and December 12. /[[User:Johan (WMF)|Johan (WMF)]] ([[User:Johan (WMF)|talk]]) via [[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 11:17, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

== Template Wizard script available for testing ==

Hello. I'm contacting you because you voted for the [[2017_Community_Wishlist_Survey/Editing/Infobox_wizard|Infobox Wizard]] in the 2017 Community Wishlist Survey.  

The Infobox Wizard has gotten an upgrade - it's now a [[Community_Tech/Template_wizard|Template Wizard]] which works for infoboxes and all other templates. The feature is being developed as an extension (which will allow for localization) but there is a prototype [[en:User:Samwilson/TemplateWizard.js|user script]] which works well. 

The Wishlist Team would love it if you could take a few minutes to try the Template Wizard prototype script out and give us feedback on whether it lives up to your expectations. This feedback will help build the script into an extension. To get started, add the following to your [[Special:MyPage/common.js]] - 
<syntaxhighlight>
mw.loader.load( 'https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Samwilson/TemplateWizard.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript' );
</syntaxhighlight>
The Template Wizard will show up as a '''puzzle-piece icon in the 2010 WikiEditor'''. You can click on the icon to insert a template. Your thoughts are needed on whether it makes sense for the wizard to be available for all users by default or if there should be a preference for it. If it's a preference, what should the default be? [[Talk:Community_Tech/Template_wizard|Please leave your feedback here]]. Thank you! -- [[User:Keegan (WMF)|Keegan (WMF)]] ([[User talk:Keegan (WMF)|talk]]) 22:42, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

* The first discussion on [[c:Commons:Structured data/Get involved/Feedback requests/First licensing consultation|copyright and licensing with Commons]] was held in March. This was a "high level" discussion, there will be a consultation later this summer about the deeper mapping of copyright and licensing in a structured way.
* In April there was an [[c:Commons:Structured data/Get involved/Feedback requests/GLAM metadata and ontologies mapping|exercise for GLAM partners in metadata and ontology mapping]].
* A discussion about [[c:Commons:Structured data/Get involved/Feedback requests/Multilingual Captions and MediaInfo|the design for Multilingual Captions on the file page]] took place in May. You can still review the designs and leave feedback.
* There was an [[m:IRC office hours/Office hours 2018-06-26|IRC office hour in June]] to discuss progress so far and future plans.

Greetings,

The newsletter omitted two interwiki prefixes, breaking the links on non-meta wikis as you might see above. Here are the correct links:

# [[m:Research:Curation workflows on Wikimedia Commons]]—a project that seeks to understand the current workflows of Commons contributors who curate media (categorize it, delete it, link to it from other projects, etc.).
# [[m:Research:Technical needs of external re-users of Commons media]]—soliciting feedback from individuals and organizations that re-use Commons content outside of Wikimedia projects, in order to understand their current painpoints and unmet needs.

My apologies, I hope you find the corrected links helpful.

Hi,

You get this message because you’ve previously participated in the Community Wishlist Survey. I just wanted to let you know that this year’s survey is now open for proposals. You can suggest technical changes until 11 November: [[Community Wishlist Survey 2019]].

You can vote from November 16 to November 30. To keep the number of messages at a reasonable level, I won’t send out a separate reminder to you about that. /[[User:Johan (WMF)|Johan (WMF)]] 11:24, 30 October 2018 (UTC)

== Renaming Wishlist proposals ==

Hello! It would seem [[Special:Diff/18538752|this edit]] messed everything up and made the edit links go to the wrong place. Comments from other users were incorrectly added to a separate page.

* The info portal on Structured Commons [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_data/GLAM now includes a section on GLAM] (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums).
* We are currently planning the first GLAM pilot projects that will use structured data on Wikimedia Commons. One project has already started: the Swedish Heritage Board researches and develops a prototype tool to provide improved metadata (translations, data additions...) from Wikimedia Commons back to the source institution. [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Project_Brief_Wikimedia_Commons_Data_Roundtripping.pdf Read the project brief].
* The documentation for batch uploads of files to Wikimedia Commons will be improved in 2019, as part of preparing for Structured Data on Wikimedia Commons. To prepare, the GLAM team at the Wikimedia Foundation wants to understand better which types of documentation you already use, and how you like to learn new GLAM-Wiki skills and knowledge.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

''My apologies if this is a duplicate message for you, it is being sent to multiple lists which you may be signed up for.''

Hi all, following up on [https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons:Village_pump&oldid=331569911#Structured_data_-_Multilingual_captions_beta_testing last month's announcement]...

'''Multilingual file captions will be released this week, on either Wednesday, 9 January or Thursday, 10 January 2019.''' Captions are a feature to add short, translatable descriptions to files. Here's some links you might want to look follow before the release, if you haven't already:

# [[mw:Help:File_captions|Read over the help page for using captions]] - I wrote the page on mediawiki.org because captions are available for any MediaWiki user, feel free to host/modify a copy of the page here on Commons.
# [https://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/ Test out using captions on Beta Commons].
# Leave feedback about the test on [[c:Commons_talk:Structured_data/Beta_captions_testing|the captions test talk page]], if you have anything you'd like to say prior to release.

Additionally, '''there will be an IRC office hour on Thursday, 10 January''' with the Structured Data team to talk about file captions, as well as anything else the community may be interested in. [[m:IRC_office_hours#Upcoming_office_hours|Date/time conversion, as well as a link to join, are on Meta]].

Thanks for your time, I look forward to seeing those who can make it to the IRC office hour on Thursday. -- [[User:Keegan (WMF)|Keegan (WMF)]] ([[m:User talk:Keegan (WMF)|talk]]) 21:09, 7 January 2019 (UTC) </div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
There are two separate blog entries for [[c:Commons:Structured data|Structured Data on Commons]] posted to [[m:Wikimedia Space|Wikimedia Space]] that are of interest:

* [https://space.wmflabs.org/2019/08/27/working-with-structured-data-on-commons-a-status-report/ Working with Structured Data on Commons: A Status Report], by [[User:Lucas Werkmeister|Lucas Werkmeister]], discusses some ways that editors can work with structured data. Topics include tools that have been written or modified for structured data, in addition to future plans for tools and querying services.
* [https://space.wmflabs.org/2019/07/25/structured-data-on-commons-a-blog-series/ Structured Data on Commons - A Blog Series], written by me, is a five-part posting that covers the basics of the software and features that were built to make structured data happen. The series is meant to be friendly to those who may have some knowledge of Commons, but may not know much about the structured data project.

I hope these are informative and useful, comments and questions are welcome. All the blogs offer a comment feature, and you can log in with your Wikimedia account using [[mw:Special/Mylanguage/Help:OAuth|oAuth]].
