Berita teknis[Mencetak] - Seperti yang mungkin kita semua ketahui, tampilan hasil mencetak halaman Wiki bukanlah yang terbaik. Wikimedia Foundation mengumumkan kerjasama dengan Open Society Institute dan Commonwealth of Learning untuk membuat extension yang dapat mempercantik hasil cetakannya. http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Wikis_Go_Printable [AMS-IX] - Wikimedia Foundation mendapatkan sumbangan koneksi Gigabit Ethernet gratis dari Amsterdam Internet Exchange (salah satu hub internet terbesar di dunia), "demi kebaikan dunia internet". http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Press_releases/AMS-IX Permintaan bantuan[Greenspun] - Proyek Ilustrasi Philip Greenspun, yang dikoordinasi oleh Brianna Laugher (meta:user:Pfctdayelise), sekarang menerima permohonan proposal gambar untuk dimasukkan di proyek. Jika Anda sangat-sangat memerlukan sebuah gambar animasi, Anda bisa memintanya di sana. Akan ada sedikit insentif uang untuk ilustratornya. Babak pertama proses pembuatan sepertinya akan dimulai awal Januari 2008. Kolega media internal kita dari WikipediaWeekly telah mewawancara Brianna mengenai hal ini. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Philip_Greenspun_illustration_project http://wikipediaweekly.org/2007/12/14/episode-38-interview-wbrianna-laugher/ Yayasan[Wikinews] - Wikimedia Serbia telah membuat perjanjian resmi dengan kantor berita Serbia "Beta news" untuk menggunakan artikel berita mereka dalam bahasa Serbia dan bahasa Inggris di Wikinews. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.wikinews/773 [Wikimania 2009] - Pengajuan kandidat kota untuk acara Wikimania 2009 dapat dilakukan secara resmi hingga 15 Februari 2008. Ingat, Wikimania 2008 akan diadakan di Alexandria, Mesir. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2009 [Wikimania 2008] - Rapat umum pertama telah diadakan di IRC yang membicarakan berbagai topik selama 2 jam pada Kamis, 13 Desember 2007. Rapat berikutnya dijadwalkan pada hari Sabtu, 15:00, 22 Desember 2007 (UTC). http://wikimania2008.wikimedia.org/wiki/Planning/Meetings/20071213 [Staf] - Wikimedia Foundation merekrut staf baru pertamanya untuk relokasi ke San Fransisco. Sue Gardner mengumumkan bahwa Erica Ortega akan menjadi Manajer Kantor yang baru dan Cheryl Steffen sebagai Asisten Pribadi Direktur Eksekutif. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.foundation/22805 [SR Wikimedia] - Penerjemahan dan adaptasi lisensi Creative Commons ke hukum lokal Serbia telah dipresentasikan. Hal ini dilaksanakan dalam kolaborasi dengan Wikimedia Serbia. http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/7911 [Napi?] - Menurut blog "The Register", mantan Chief Operating Officer Wikimedia Foundation adalah seorang napi dengan beberapa vonis. Keprihatinan akan ketidakakuratan berita di "The Register" ini telah mencuat. Mike Godwin, penasihat hukum WMF, menulis di Foundation-l bahawa WMF tidak dapat berkomentar mengenai hal ini karena batasan hukum. Ia berkata, "Foundation telah menyewa sebuah firma independen untuk menyelidiki latar belakang kriminal, sesuai dengan undang-undang negara bagian dan federal yang berlaku di AS." Jimmy Wales juga menjanjikan bahwa jika terbukti ada dana yang dicuri, ia akan menggantinya dengan dana pribadi. Janji ini diberikan untuk menenangkan orang-orang, bukan karena ia sudah menduga akan adanya masalah. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/12/13/wikimedia_coo_convicted_felon/ -- The Register http://tinyurl.com/2hvor8 -- Laporan Wikinews [Chapter] -- Wikimedia Foundation secara resmi menyetujui 2 cabang lokal baru: Wikimedia Swedia dan Wikimedia Argentina. Media[Penyalahgunaan] - Sejak WikiScanner muncul, media dikejutkan akan fakta bahwa tidak cuma individu, tapi banyak perusahaan dan pemerintahan juga menyunting Wikipedia, bahkan pada bagian yang tidak semestinya. Saat ini, media *masih* melaporkan semakin banyak suntingan semacam itu, seperti baru-baru ini dari BBC dan Militer AS. Walau fakta ini mungkin membosankan para Wikimediawan, lucu juga melihat media masih mempergunjingkannya. http://news.independent.co.uk/media/article3255702.ece [Signpost] - BBC salah mengutip komentar Wales tentang mengutip Wikipedia. [Ekstra! Ekstra!] - Kepala berita di koran menuliskan "Komando Militer AS meretas Wikipedia". Baca: "Vandalisme Biasa!". [Keluarganya membaca juga] - Biografi orang-orang yang masih hidup juga dibaca oleh keluarga mereka. Musisi Jeff Tweedy mengatakan dalam sebuah wawancara bahwa anaknya mengetahui masa lalu kehidupannya dari Wikipedia. http://pages.citebite.com/w9q8c2xwcqu Statistik[q:fr]- Wikiquote bahasa Perancis telah mencapai 5000 kutipan. Proyek ini pernah dihapus pada April 2006 dan baru saja dimulai kembali tahun lalu pada Desember 2006. [Wiktionary kedua di Dunia!] - Setidaknya demikian menurut Alexa.com untuk kategori kamus bahasa Inggris. [Gambar Harian] - Commons sejak bulan Februari 2007 telah melayani pengiriman email yang berisikan pranala ke Picture of the Day. Saat ini sudah lebih dari 1000 pengguna berlangganan layanan ini. http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/daily-image-l Berita lain[Knol] - Google mengumumkan sebuah proyek baru, Knol. Knol akan berisikan semacam-artikel ensiklopedia, ditulis oleh individual, dan akan tampil di urutan puncak di Google. Para penulis akan menerima bagian dari iklan-iklannya. Pertanyaan besarnya bukanlah: Lisensi apa yang akan disyaratkan Google? Tampaknya akan terjadi konflik kepentingan, karena Google sekarang menjadi penerbit informasi sekaligus mesin pencari. Saat ini isi dari proyek-proyek WMF terdaftar di urutan puncak dalam hasil pencarian. Hasilnya, lalu lintas ke proyek-proyek WMF sangat banyak yang berasal dari Google. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.foundation/22897 [Senat Amerika Serikat] - Jimmy Wales telah bersaksi di hadapan senat AS tentang keuntungan menggunakan wiki di pemerintahan.

Technical news[Printing] - As we all probably know, the layout for printing Wiki pages is not the best. The Wikimedia Foundation announced a cooperation with the Open Society Institute and the Commonwealth of Learning to make an extension that will enable nice printing options. http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Wikis_Go_Printable [AMS-IX] - The Wikimedia Foundation received a Gigabit internet connection at no cost from Amsterdam Internet Exchange (one of the largest internet hubs world wide), for the "good of the internet". http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Press_releases/AMS-IX Request for help[Greenspun] - The Philip Greenspun Illustration Project, coordinated by Brianna Laugher (meta:user:Pfctdayelise), is now accepting requests for image proposals to run in the project. If you really really want an animation to be created, you can request it there, and there will be a small amount of money available for the creator to stimulate the creation. It is likely that the first round of this creation process will start at the begin of January. Our internal media collages of WikipediaWeekly have an interview with Brianna about this. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Philip_Greenspun_illustration_project http://wikipediaweekly.org/2007/12/14/episode-38-interview-wbrianna-laugher/ Foundation[Wikinews] - Wikimedia Serbia has made a formal agreement with the Serbian news agency "Beta news" for using there news articles in Serbian and English on Wikinews. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.wikinews/773 [Wikimania 2009] - The formal start for the submissions for candidate cities to host Wikimania 2009 is open now until 15th of February.

Sue Gardner announced that Erica Ortega will be the new Office Manager and Cheryl Steffen will be the Personal Assistant for the Executive Directive. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.foundation/22805 [SR Wikimedia] - A translation and adaptation to local law of the Creative Commons license in Serbian is presented. This is done with the collaboration of Wikimedia Serbia. http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/7911 [Felon?] - According to the blog "The Register" the former Chief Operating Officer of the Wikimedia Foundation was a multiple convicted felon. Concerns have been raised that the story told in the "The Register" is inaccurate. Mike Godwin, the WMF legal consul, posted on Foundation-l that the WMF can not give comments about this because of legal restrictions. Mike Godwin did say that "the Foundation has retained an independent firm that conducts criminal background checks, consistent with state and federal law in the USA." Jimmy Wales also promised that if it would turned out that money has been stolen he will compensated it from personal funds. Jimmy promised that so that people could feel comfortable about it, not that he expects there will be a problem. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/12/13/wikimedia_coo_convicted_felon/ -- The Register http://tinyurl.com/2hvor8 -- Wikinews report [Chapters] -- The Wikimedia Foundation has officially approved two new chapters: Wikimedia Sweden and Wikimedia Argentina. Media[Abuse] - Since the WikiScanner came up, the media are all the time stunned by the fact that people, but also companies and governments are actually editing Wikipedia, also on spots where they maybe should not. However, the media are *still* reporting on numerous new found governments and companies, such as recently the BBC and the US Military. Although the bare facts might be boring to Wikimedians, it is funny to see how media are still reporting this. http://news.independent.co.uk/media/article3255702.ece [Signpost] - Wales’ comments on citing Wikipedia produce BBC correction [Extra! Extra!] - News paper headline reads "U.S. military command hacks Wikipedia". Translation; kindergarten level normal vandalisme on article. [Family reads also] - Articles about living people are also read by direct family of these famous people. Jeff Tweedy, musician, says in an interview that his son founded out things about the past of his father by means of Wikipedia. http://pages.citebite.com/w9q8c2xwcqu Stats[q:fr]- The French Wikiquote has reached 5,000 quotes. This project was deleted in April 2006 (see Wikizine 19 Extra) and only restarted one year ago in December 2006. [Wiktionary 2nd in the World!] - At least according to Alexa.com for the category of English language dictionaries. [Daily Image] - Commons started in February with the service of sending out the link to the Picture of the Day. There are now already over 1000 people using this service. http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/daily-image-l Other news[Knol] - Google announced a new project, Knols. It will contain pages with encyclopedic-like information, written by individuals, which will appear at the top rank of Google. The writers will receive a share in the advertisements. The big question is not: What license will Google require? It is likely that this will raise a conflict of interest, now Google is both publisher of information and search engine. Currently content from the WMF projects is very highly listed in most search requests. As a result very large amounts of traffic comes from Google to the WMF projects. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.foundation/22897 [US senate] - Jimmy Wales has testified in the US senate about the positive use wikis for the government can have. This is in relation of an effort to make US government websites and databases more searchable. http://www.mercurynews.com/politics/ci_7689792 http://hsgac.senate.gov/_files/121107Wales.pdf -- the statement of Jimmy Wales before the US senate Did you know ...... that Wikinews has a weekly quiz about the current events of last week? http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/WN:QUIZ Wikinews is using the MediaWiki extension "Quiz" for this function. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Quiz Quote"It's not the size of your tools that matter, but how you use them." -- Cary Bass on IRC "Then I asked if he was surprised that Google did it; "I am surprised it took them so long. :)" -- Responds of Jimmy Wales in regard of the Google Knol project. http://battellemedia.com/archives/004152.php |
