Feminism and Folklore 2025 starts soon
[urnosen ti taudan]
Dear Wiki Community,
You are humbly invited to organize the Feminism and Folklore 2025 writing competition from February 1, 2025, to March 31, 2025 on your local Wikipedia. This year, Feminism and Folklore will focus on feminism, women's issues, and gender-focused topics for the project, with a Wiki Loves Folklore gender gap focus and a folk culture theme on Wikipedia.
You can help Wikipedia's coverage of folklore from your area by writing or improving articles about things like folk festivals, folk dances, folk music, women and queer folklore figures, folk game athletes, women in mythology, women warriors in folklore, witches and witch hunting, fairy tales, and more. Users can help create new articles, expand or translate from a generated list of suggested articles.
Organisers are requested to work on the following action items to sign up their communities for the project:
- Create a page for the contest on the local wiki.
- Set up a campaign on CampWiz tool.
- Create the local list and mention the timeline and local and international prizes.
- Request local admins for site notice.
- Link the local page and the CampWiz link on the meta project page.
This year, the Wiki Loves Folklore Tech Team has introduced two new tools to enhance support for the campaign. These tools include the Article List Generator by Topic and CampWiz. The Article List Generator by Topic enables users to identify articles on the English Wikipedia that are not present in their native language Wikipedia. Users can customize their selection criteria, and the tool will present a table showcasing the missing articles along with suggested titles. Additionally, users have the option to download the list in both CSV and wikitable formats. Notably, the CampWiz tool will be employed for the project for the first time, empowering users to effectively host the project with a jury. Both tools are now available for use in the campaign. Click here to access these tools
Learn more about the contest and prizes on our project page. Feel free to contact us on our meta talk page or by email us if you need any assistance.
We look forward to your immense coordination.
Thank you and Best wishes,
Feminism and Folklore 2025 International Team

RfC ongoing regarding Abstract Wikipedia (and your project)
[urnosen ti taudan](Apologies for posting in English, if this is not your first language)
Hello all! We opened a discussion on Meta about a very delicate issue for the development of Abstract Wikipedia: where to store the abstract content that will be developed through functions from Wikifunctions and data from Wikidata. Since some of the hypothesis involve your project, we wanted to hear your thoughts too.
We want to make the decision process clear: we do not yet know which option we want to use, which is why we are consulting here. We will take the arguments from the Wikimedia communities into account, and we want to consult with the different communities and hear arguments that will help us with the decision. The decision will be made and communicated after the consultation period by the Foundation.
You can read the various hypothesis and have your say at Abstract Wikipedia/Location of Abstract Content. Thank you in advance! -- Sannita (WMF) (tungtungan) 15:26, 22 Mayo 2025 (UTC)
Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees 2025 Selection & Call for Questions
[urnosen ti taudan]Dear all,
This year, the term of 2 (two) Community- and Affiliate-selected Trustees on the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees will come to an end [1]. The Board invites the whole movement to participate in this year’s selection process and vote to fill those seats.
The Elections Committee will oversee this process with support from Foundation staff [2]. The Governance Committee, composed of trustees who are not candidates in the 2025 community-and-affiliate-selected trustee selection process (Raju Narisetti, Shani Evenstein Sigalov, Lorenzo Losa, Kathy Collins, Victoria Doronina and Esra’a Al Shafei) [3], is tasked with providing Board oversight for the 2025 trustee selection process and for keeping the Board informed. More details on the roles of the Elections Committee, Board, and staff are here [4].
Here are the key planned dates:
- May 22 – June 5: Announcement (this communication) and call for questions period [6]
- June 17 – July 1, 2025: Call for candidates
- July 2025: If needed, affiliates vote to shortlist candidates if more than 10 apply [5]
- August 2025: Campaign period
- August – September 2025: Two-week community voting period
- October – November 2025: Background check of selected candidates
- Board’s Meeting in December 2025: New trustees seated
Learn more about the 2025 selection process - including the detailed timeline, the candidacy process, the campaign rules, and the voter eligibility criteria - on this Meta-wiki page [link].
Call for Questions
In each selection process, the community has the opportunity to submit questions for the Board of Trustees candidates to answer. The Election Committee selects questions from the list developed by the community for the candidates to answer. Candidates must answer all the required questions in the application in order to be eligible; otherwise their application will be disqualified. This year, the Election Committee will select 5 questions for the candidates to answer. The selected questions may be a combination of what’s been submitted from the community, if they’re alike or related. [link]
Election Volunteers
Another way to be involved with the 2025 selection process is to be an Election Volunteer. Election Volunteers are a bridge between the Elections Committee and their respective community. They help ensure their community is represented and mobilize them to vote. Learn more about the program and how to join on this Meta-wiki page [link].

Enabling Dark mode for logged-out users in this Wikipedia
[urnosen ti taudan]Hello Wikipedians,
Apologies, as this message is not written in your native language. Please help translate to your language.
The Wikimedia Foundation Web team will be enabling dark mode here on your Wikipedia by February 2025 now that pages on your wiki have passed our checks for accessibility and other quality checks. Congratulations!
The plan to enable is made possible by the diligent work of editors and other technical contributors in your community who ensured that templates, gadgets, and other parts of pages can be accessible in dark mode. Thank you all for making dark mode available for everybody!
For context, the Web team has concluded work on dark mode. If, on some wikis, the option is not yet available for logged-out users, this is likely because many pages do not yet display well in dark mode. As communities make progress on this work, we enable this feature on additional wikis once per month.
If you notice any issues after enabling dark mode, please create a page: Reading/Web/Accessibility for reading/Reporting/xx.wikipedia.org in MediaWiki (like these pages), and report the issue in the created page.
Thank you!
On behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation Web team.

Phased deployment of the CampaignEvents extension across various Wikipedias
[urnosen ti taudan]Hello!
Apologies for writing this message in English.
I am writing on behalf of the Campaigns product team who are planning a global deployment of the CampaignEvents extension to all Wikipedias, starting with a small batch in April 2025.
The Ilokano Wikipedia is one of the wikis proposed for this phase! This extension is designed to help organizers plan and manage events, wikiprojects, and other on-wiki collaborations. Also making these events/wikiprojects more discoverable. You can find out more here on the FAQs page.
The three main features of this extension are:
- Event Registration: A simple way to sign up for events on the wiki.
- Event List: A calendar to show all events on your wiki. Soon, it will include WikiProjects too.
- Invitation Lists: A tool to find editors who might want to join, based on their edits.
Please Note:
This extension comes with a new user right called "Event Organizer," which will be managed by the administrators of Ilokano Wikipedia, allowing the admins to decide when and how the extension tools are used on the wikis.
Once released, the organizer-facing tools (Event Registration and Invitation Lists) can only be used if someone is granted the Event-Organizer right, managed by the admins.
The only tool that is available immediately after release is the ‘’Collaboration List’’, which is a read-only page that lists events and WikiProjects that people can join.
The extension is already on some wikis,e.g Meta, Wikidata, English Wikipedia (see full list). Check out the phased deployment plan and share your thoughts by March 31, 2025.
To Admins,
your feedback and thoughts are especially important because this extension includes a new user right called "Event Organizer," which will be managed by you. Once you take a look at the details above and on the linked pages, we suggest drafting a community policy outlining criteria for granting this right on Ilokano Wikipedia. Check out Meta:Event_organizers and Wikidata:Event_organizers to see examples.
For further enquiries, feel free to contact us via the talkpage, or email ikristiani@wikimedia.org.

Proposal to enable the "Contribute" entry point in Iloko Wikipedia
[urnosen ti taudan]Hello Iloko Wikipedians,
Apologies as this message is not in your language. Please help translate to your language.
The WMF Language and Product Localization team proposes enabling an entry point called "Contribute" to your Wikipedia.
The Contribute entry point is based on collaborative work with other product teams in the Wikimedia Foundation on Edit discovery, which validated the entry point as a persistent and constant path that contributors took to discover ways to contribute content in Wikipedia.
Therefore, enabling this entry point in your Wikipedia will help contributors quickly discover available tools and immediately click to start using them. This entry point is designed to be a central point for discovering contribution tools in Iloko Wikipedia.
Who can access it
Once it is enabled in your Wikipedia, newcomers can access the entry point automatically by just logging into their account, click on the User drop-down menu and choose the "Contribute" icon, which takes you to another menu where you will find a self-guided description of what you can do to contribute content, as shown in the image below. An option to "view contributions" is also available to access the list of your contributions.
.png)
For experienced contributors, the Contribute icon is not automatically shown in their User drop-down menu. They will still see the "Contributions" option unless they change it to the "Contribute" manually.
We have gotten valuable feedback that helped us improve its discoverability. Now, it is ready to be enabled in other Wikis. One major improvement was to make the entry point optional for experienced contributors who still want to have the "Contributions" entry point as default.
We plan to enable it on mobile for Wikis, where the Section translation tool is enabled. In this way, we will provide a main entry point to the mobile translation dashboard, and the exposure can still be limited by targeting only the mobile platform for now. If there are no objections to having the entry point for mobile users from your community, we will enable it by 26th May 2025.
We welcome your feedback and questions in this thread on our proposal to enable it here. Suppose there are no objections, we will deploy the "Contribute" entry point in your Wikipedia.
We look forward to your response soon.
Thank you!

CampaignEvents Extension Now Active on this Wiki!
[urnosen ti taudan]Good news! The CampaignEvents extension is now active on this Wiki as part of Phase 2 of the global deployment! This extension empowers organizers to plan and promote events like edit-a-thons, data-a-thons, and meetups with ease.
What You Can Do Now:
- Event Registration & Invitation Lists: Organizers can ask this wiki’s admins for the Event-Organizer right. This gives access to tools for planning, managing events, Wikiprojects and finding editors who share similar interests to invite for your upcoming event or wikiproject. These tools make organizing events simple and smooth.
- Collaboration List: You can now go to the “Special:AllEvents” page on this wiki to explore a global, automated calendar of upcoming and ongoing events, as well as WikiProjects on this wiki. It’s a great way to discover and promote collaborative activities!
- Transclude Collaboration list: You can now add the Collaboration List to any page, like this wiki’s main page, WikiProject pages, or even User pages. This creates a calendar that updates automatically with events that match your wiki or topic. You can also transclude a list of the WikiProjects on the wiki. Learn more at: mw:Help:Extension:CampaignEvents/Collaboration_list/Transclusion.
