Update on Upcoming Wiki Indaba Conference

Hello Sir. My name is Rexford Nkansah, currently serving as a Wikipedian in Residence at the Africa Centre in Cape Town.

The Wikimedia Foundation has shared with us the incredible number of edits that you have done on this Wikipedia. You have are one of those with the high contribution to this Wikipedia.

As one of the highest contributors to one of the languages of the African continent, I want to inform you about the upcoming Wiki Indaba Conference which is similar to Wikimania, however, its designed by Africans for Africans.

This message is to inform you about scholarship to attend application currently open. You're invited to apply for scholarship to attend this conference.

Please see the main Wiki Indaba Website for more details on Eligibility and Deadline – look at www.wikiindaba.net for more details. And like the facebook page for updates.

Please don't hesitate to get in touch should you have any questions.

my contact is rexford[@]wikiafrica.net

Naomba ushirikiano wako!

Mpendwa, nakuomba uangalie baada ya siku 2,3 kurasa hizi mbili:

1. Wikipedia:Wakabidhi#Kusafisha_orodha_ya_Wakabidhi_mwaka_2014
2. Wikipedia:Ukurasa_wa_jumuia#Wiki_Indaba_2014

Kuhusu 1) napendekeza kuwachagua wakabidhi wapya na kuondoa wale waliomo katika orodha ya wakabidhi lakini hawakuwepo tangu miaka 2.

Kuhusu 2): nahitaji msaada na mawazo yenu. Nitashiriki kwenye mkutano wa Wikimedia mwezi wa Juni. Inaonekana mimi ndipo mchnagiaji wa pekee kutoka Wikipedia yetu. Ninajitahidi kupeleka mawazo ya jumuiya yetu. Naomba michango!

Nitaongeza karibuni mawazo yangu kuhusu mambo ninayoona kuwa na maana kwa mtazamo wangu. Ujumb huu natuma kwa wachangiaji wanaoonekana katika orodha ya wachangiaji hai waliochangia zaidi ya mara 3 katika siku 30 zilizopita!

An important message about renaming users

Dear Baba Tabita, My aplogies for writing in English. Please translate or have this translated for you if it will help. I am cross-posting this message to many places to make sure everyone who is a Wikimedia Foundation project bureaucrat receives a copy. If you are a bureaucrat on more than one wiki, you will receive this message on each wiki where you are a bureaucrat.

As you may have seen, work to perform the Wikimedia cluster-wide single-user login finalisation (SUL finalisation) is taking place. This may potentially effect your work as a local bureaucrat, so please read this message carefully.

Why is this happening? As currently stated at the global rename policy, a global account is a name linked to a single user across all Wikimedia wikis, with local accounts unified into a global collection. Previously, the only way to rename a unified user was to individually rename every local account. This was an extremely difficult and time-consuming task, both for stewards and for the users who had to initiate discussions with local bureaucrats (who perform local renames to date) on every wiki with available bureaucrats. The process took a very long time, since it's difficult to coordinate crosswiki renames among the projects and bureaucrats involved in individual projects.

The SUL finalisation will be taking place in stages, and one of the first stages will be to turn off Special:RenameUser locally. This needs to be done as soon as possible, on advice and input from Stewards and engineers for the project, so that no more accounts that are unified globally are broken by a local rename to usurp the global account name. Once this is done, the process of global name unification can begin. The date that has been chosen to turn off local renaming and shift over to entirely global renaming is 15 September 2014, or three weeks time from now. In place of local renames is a new tool, hosted on Meta, that allows for global renames on all wikis where the name is not registered will be deployed.

Your help is greatly needed during this process and going forward in the future if, as a bureaucrat, renaming users is something that you do or have an interest in participating in. The Wikimedia Stewards have set up, and are in charge of, a new community usergroup on Meta in order to share knowledge and work together on renaming accounts globally, called Global renamers. Stewards are in the process of creating documentation to help global renamers to get used to and learn more about global accounts and tools and Meta in general as well as the application format. As transparency is a valuable thing in our movement, the Stewards would like to have at least a brief public application period. If you are an experienced renamer as a local bureaucrat, the process of becoming a part of this group could take as little as 24 hours to complete. You, as a bureaucrat, should be able to apply for the global renamer right on Meta by the requests for global permissions page on 1 September, a week from now.

In the meantime please update your local page where users request renames to reflect this move to global renaming, and if there is a rename request and the user has edited more than one wiki with the name, please send them to the request page for a global rename.

Stewards greatly appreciate the trust local communities have in you and want to make this transition as easy as possible so that the two groups can start working together to ensure everyone has a unique login identity across Wikimedia projects. Completing this project will allow for long-desired universal tools like a global watchlist, global notifications and many, many more features to make work easier.

If you have any questions, comments or concerns about the SUL finalisation, read over the Help:Unified login page on Meta and leave a note on the talk page there, or on the talk page for global renamers. You can also contact me on my talk page on meta if you would like. I'm working as a bridge between Wikimedia Foundation Engineering and Product Development, Wikimedia Stewards, and you to assure that SUL finalisation goes as smoothly as possible; this is a community-driven process and I encourage you to work with the Stewards for our communities.

Thank you for your time. -- Keegan (WMF) talk 18:24, 25 Agosti 2014 (UTC)

Kurasa juu ya lugha mbalimbali

Ndugu, pamoja na kukupongeza kwa kuingiza habari za lugha duniani, nina shaka kuhusu majina unayotumia. Yaani ukisema k.mf. Kiswahili ya Kusini, naona ingekuwa sahihi kuandika Kiswahili cha Kusini. Au siyo? Amani kwako! --Riccardo Riccioni (majadiliano) 14:38, 20 Desemba 2014 (UTC)

Asante, ndugu, kwa swali lako. Ninavyoelewa Kiswahili (na nimeangalia kitabu cha sarufi tena), ingawa majina ya lugha huanza na Ki-, hata hivyo kisarufi, majina au maneno hayo hufuata upatanifu wa ngeli ya nomino ya i-/zi-. Hata Waswahili wengine wenyewe hukosea (hasa mtandaoni) lakini ndivyo wataalamu wa sarufi watuambia. Wasalaam, --Baba Tabita (majadiliano) 14:47, 20 Desemba 2014 (UTC)

Chombo cha kufasiri makala

Salaam, Dk. Stegen, hivi umewahi au hata kutupia jicho hiki chombo kipya cha kufanyia ufasiri? Wallah kimenishngaza. Yaani, nimebaki mdomo wazi baada ya kugundua kinanipunguzia kazi kupita malezo. Ni hayo tu nlitaka kukudokezea kama bado hujathubutu kukigusa. Wasalaam,--_{Mwanaharakati}^Longa 06:37, 11 Julai 2015 (UTC)

Asante, Ndg. Muddyb, kwa kunikumbusha. Bahati mbaya sitakuwa na nafasi ya kukitupia jicho hicho chombo cha ufasiri kwa muda. Naomba pia unikumbusha kiungo tena. Asante, --Baba Tabita (majadiliano) 20:21, 11 Julai 2015 (UTC)

Kiungo chake kinapatikana katika ukurasa wako wa orodha ya michango yako. Hivyo yaani...--_{Mwanaharakati}^Longa 20:44, 11 Julai 2015 (UTC)

Asante - na tena pole sana. Sijaona "chombo cha kufanyia ufasiri", wala ukurasani mwa orodha ya michango yangu wala mahali pengine. Je, umewahi kukitumia? --Baba Tabita (majadiliano) 09:29, 14 Julai 2015 (UTC)

Tazama picha labda utapata wazo...--_{Mwanaharakati}^Longa 10:52, 14 Julai 2015 (UTC)

Asante kwa picha. Kumbe, sina vibonyezo kama hivyo. Tena nadhani inamaanisha michango ya ufasiri uliofanywa na mtumiaji husika, na siyo chombo cha kufanyia ufasiri kitarakilishi. Siyo GoogleTranslate imetuonyesha kwamba kompyuta haiwezi kufasiri? ;-) --Baba Tabita (majadiliano) 17:22, 14 Julai 2015 (UTC)

Hapana. Sio kama Google Translate... Hiyo unafanya mwenyewe.. Ni rahisi mno kuliko ile njia ya zamani.

FAIDA ZAKE

• Inaunganisha yenyewe viungo vya interwiki kama makala ipo
• Inaunganisha JAMII au KATEGORIA zote kama makala husika ina vigezo ambavyo sawa
• Inaondoa viungo vya INTERWIKI vyote ambavyo havipo na kuacha bila kiungo
• Rahisi kuhariri kuliko mfumo wa zamani
• Kila kitu kinaingizwa kidijitali zaidi, mfano: picha, kiungo, faili na kadhalika.

ni hayo tu..--_{Mwanaharakati}^Longa 18:51, 14 Julai 2015 (UTC)

Tafadhali uangalie jamii kuhusu mfumo wa kuanzisha makala

Mpendwa, nakuomba kuaangalia ukurasa wa Jumuiya. Tuliomba wikimedia ya kutpa mfumo wa kuzuia watumiaji wasiojiandikisha wasianzise makala mapya. Kusudi lilikuwa kupunguza idadi ya makala mabaya yasiyotosheleza masharti ya wikipedia ilhali tuko wachache mno kuziangalia. Wikipedia kubwa kadhaa zinatumia utaratibu huu (kama en:wikipedia) lakini sisi tunapaswa kupeleka ombi kwa kamati fulani. Kamati hii wametupa nafasi kwa kipindi ha miezi 6 tu inayokwisha karibuni. Sasa wanakamati wamekuja wanadai tujieleza au watarudisha mfumo huu nyuma. Mimi nikiwa 1 kati ya wachache wanaochugulia makala mapya naona itaturudisha nyuma. Naomba mchangie! Sanaaaaa!!

Rock Art

Naona umesahihisha michoro ya Kondoa, asante. Natafuta jina kwa ile "rock art". Sanaa ya mwambani? Sanaa mwambani?? Sanaa miambani?? Umewahi kuona kitu? Kipala (majadiliano) 07:44, 28 Aprili 2016 (UTC)

Nilipokaa Kondoa nilisikia "michoro ya mapango" hasa. Nikatafuta mtandaoni sasa hivi na kupata hata hati ya serikali kutoka mwaka wa 2011 inayozungumzia "Michoro ya Mapango ya Kondoa (Kondoa Rock Art Sites)", angalia hapa. Tovuti nyingine inaiita "Michoro ya Mapangoni", ila habari yenyewe imenakilishwa kutoka wikipedia yetu :) ... Haya, nadhani huwezi kukosa kwa kutumia "michoro ya mapango". Wasalaam, --Baba Tabita (majadiliano) 11:12, 28 Aprili 2016 (UTC)

Asante lakini sidhani ni hii. Naona Mwandishi alikuwa na neno la kiingereza "Cave Art" , "Cave Paintings" akilini mwake. Lakini si kawaida Afrika mahali pengi si hasa mapango (jinsi ilivyo Ulaya penye majirabaridi kali) lakini penye kuta za mwamba penye labda kishubaka au chini ya sehemu inayotokeza kidogo. au jinsi nilivyoona hapa Uajemi ukutani moja kwa moja bila kitu cha juu. Nikitaka kuandika juu ya jumla "Michoro ya mapangoni" ni sehemu tu. Naelekea "Sanaa ya miambani", nasubiri Mkenya kama atajibu, huko kuna NGO ya kuhifadhi african rock art. Kipala (majadiliano) 17:04, 28 Aprili 2016 (UTC)

Haya, fanya unavyoona vema. Hata hivyo, kila lugha hubadilisha maana mara kwa mara. Na ingawa michoro = 'paintings' au 'drawings', na mapango = 'caves', maana ya michoro ya mapango siyo "cave paintings" tu. Kule Kondoa vilevile, michoro imechorwa siyo ndani ya mapango tu. Hata maafisa ya Ofisi ya Kale hutumia istilahi ya michoro ya mapango, tena siyo kwa mdomo tu lakini hata kimaandishi. Wasalaam, --Baba Tabita (majadiliano) 19:29, 28 Aprili 2016 (UTC)

Tena ukilinganisha sanaa na michoro, utagundua kwamba neno la michoro hutumiwa mara nyingi zaidi kuliko neno la sanaa, k.m. "sanaa ya miambani" iko mara saba tu mtandaoni kulingana na mara 560 kwa "michoro ya miambani". Naomba tuangalie matumizi ya maneno yanavyotumiwa na watu wengi. Asanteni. --Baba Tabita (majadiliano) 19:36, 28 Aprili 2016 (UTC)

asante kwa ushauri, tazama michoro ya miambani. Bado nahisi ya kwamba "michoro ya mapango" kwa michoro ya Kondoa ni zaidi tafsiri kutoka Kiingereza ambako zamani "cave paintings" ilikuwa kawaida zaidi kuliko "rock art". Maana kile ninachokumbuka cha Kondoa kweli si mapango... (nimesikia kuna mapango huko sehemu ambako sikuenda). michoro ya mapango iko kabisa kuna mingine nje ya mapango na hapo si mara ya kwanza ya kwamba tunapitapita klwenye matope.

Lugha na eneo?

Baba Tabita, salaam. Kwa kupitapita kwenye makala mpya za lugha nimepata swali: katika nchi kubwa kama China hii lugha fulano inajadiliwa wapi? Kwnag ingekuwa msaada kama unaweza kutaja mikoa au maeneo, majimbo ambako lugha fulani inatumiwa. Hii igesaidia pia kama siku moja tunafia kwenye makala kuhusu maeneo mbalimbali. Uwezekano upo, je? Kipala (majadiliano) 21:49, 6 Oktoba 2016 (UTC)

Mzee Kipala, salaam kwako, na asante kwa ujumbe. Kweli, kutaja eneo ambamo lugha fulani huzungumzwa kungefaa sana. Hata hivyo, nimeamua kuendelea na mfumo nilioutunga kwa ajili ya lugha. Nitakapokuwa nimemaliza makala za lugha nitaendelea na makala kuhusu makabila. Katika maoni yangu itafaa zaidi kutaja eneo ambamo watu fulani huishi, na kutaja lugha ambazo hao watu huziongea ndani ya makala ya kabila. Naomba mnivumilie. Ni kazi kubwa sana ambayo nimeshaishughulikia kwa miaka sita na kuendelea. Hatua kwa hatua ... Wasalaam, --Baba Tabita (majadiliano) 20:44, 7 Oktoba 2016 (UTC)

Das Konzept "Wissenschaft" in afrikanischen Sprachen

Hallo Baba Tabita,

ich überlege, wie ich etwas mehr kulturelle Vielfalt in meine wissenschaftsfokussierten Aktivitäten einfließen lassen kann. Ein Punkt, der mich dabei stört, ist, dass es im Englischen keine wirkliche Entsprechung zu "Wissenschaft" gibt und der oft dafür verwendete Begriff "science" (z.B. in "Science GLAM") für manche (insbesondere Geisteswissenschaftler) ausgrenzend wirkt. Ich habe bei solchen Gelegenheiten schon englische Muttersprachler das deutsche Wort "Wissenschaft" verwenden erlebt, wenn sie klar machen wollten, dass alle Disziplinen eingeschlossen sind. In ähnlichen Fällen habe ich gelegentlich auch auf slawische Sprachen verwiesen (nauka/наука etc.), und nun frage ich mich, ob es nicht in afrikanischen Sprachen Beispiele gibt, wo ein entsprechender Begriff in der breiteren Bedeutung existiert und mit englischer Tastatur geschrieben werden kann.

Das hiesige Sayansi erscheint mir zwar deutlich breiter als im Englischen, aber Geisteswissenschaften sind dort ebenfalls nicht aufgeführt. Dieses Problem scheint in af:Wetenskap nicht zu existieren, doch ist das etwas sehr nahe am Original und daher zum Signalisieren von globaler Vielfalt weniger geeignet, während ar:علوم wiederum von vielen weder gelesen noch einfach ausgesprochen oder eingegeben werden kann.

Danke, --Daniel Mietchen (majadiliano) 00:27, 2 Aprili 2017 (UTC)

Moin Daniel,

Coole Frage! Im Englischen empfehle ich "Scholarship" (im Sinne von en:Scholarly Method), entsprechend im Suaheli "Utaalamu" (leider noch kein Artikel in sw:wp, aber Mtaalamu gibt's und sollte analog zu ar:متعلم eher mit Wissenschaft(ler) verlinkt sein als mit Spezialist).

So kurz für Sonntagmorgen :) --Baba Tabita (majadiliano) 06:58, 2 Aprili 2017 (UTC)

Wenn ich kurz Senf dazugeben darf: mit Utaalamu hat er ja auch gleich die علوم Huckepack dabei, denn im Suaheli ist es eins der Lehnworte aus der arabischen Wirzel علم (mit elimu, taaluma, usw) und lässt sich schön mit dem etwas altbackenen "gelehrt" wiedergeben - also Wissenschaft im Breitesten. Kipala (majadiliano) 07:47, 2 Aprili 2017 (UTC)

OK, danke erstmal! --Daniel Mietchen (majadiliano) 16:54, 2 Aprili 2017 (UTC)

Please support the Sustainability Initiative!

Please support the Sustainability Initiative!

Hi, Baba Tapita! Please allow me to follow up on a project that was discussed at the Wikimedia Conference in Berlin a couple of weeks ago:

I am writing you to ask for your support for the Sustainability Initiative, which aims at reducing the environmental impact of the Wikimedia movement. Over the past two years, more than 250 Wikipedians from all over the world have come together to push the Wikimedia movement towards greater sustainability.

The Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation has recently passed a resolution stating that the Foundation is committed to seeking ways to reduce the impact of its activities on the environment. Now, we are working with the Wikimedia Foundation staff to have all Wikimedia servers run on renewable energy by 2019.

In order to demonstrate that this is an issue that the community really cares about, I would like to ask you to sign the project page as well. Thank you! Gnom (majadiliano) 18:36, 14 Aprili 2017 (UTC)
