Nyhetsbrev nr. 22 fra Wikimedia Norge
Hello, here are the latest news from Wikimedia Norge!


 * Arctic Knot – a big success
 * The final thing we did before the summer holidays was to hold the Arctic Knot Conference. We spent most of 2021 preparing the conference, and the conference lasted for two days with a lot of participation. Most of the videos from the conference are available in this playlist on YouTube.


 * 13–17 August: Wikimania
 * Wikimania starts tomorrow, and the deadline for registering is midnight UTC tonight. Wikimania lasts for 5 days, and the program is adapted to multiple timezones, so it will take place at various parts of the day. There are plenty of interesting submissions!
 * Wikimedia Norge is participating with a workshop. The workshop's goal is to further develop the idea of a Wikimedia hub for underrepresented language communities. Everyone is welcome to participate!


 * Next wiki meet-up: 25 August
 * The first meet-up of the fall will be about Abstract Wikipedia. We will watch Denny Vrandečić's presentation from Arctic Knot together, and discuss afterwards. The meet-up will take place on Google Meet, and start at 17.00 CEST. Simply explained, Abstract Wikipedia is about writing articles as functions in order to make them language-independent.


 * International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples
 * 9 August marks the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples, and we wrote a blog post based on some of the presentations from the Arctic Knot Conference.


 * Wikipedia 20 years
 * Due to Wikipedia's 20 year anniversary, we have received video greetings from government ministers and the President of the Sámi Parliament. You can watch the videos here. The greetings are for everyone who has contributed to Wikipedia during its 20 years of existence – thank you very much for your efforts!
 * Wikipedia in Norwegian turns 20 in November. This will be celebrated at the November meet-up; further information will come later.

Về cái gọi "cờ thành-thái" 1890

 * Cờ vàng ba sọc đỏ chỉ mới được chế tác năm 1948, dựa theo quốc kì Cộng-hòa Nam Kỳ. Thông tin "cờ Thành Thái" là do đảng Việt Tân phịa năm 1982, đã được chứng minh năm 2011. Chỉ có bọn ngu sống ở Hà Lan không sõi tiếng việt mới tin. Biết thì dựa cột người ta dạy cho mà nghe, sinh sau đẻ muộn đừng trứng khôn hơn vịt. Đi liếm láp ba cái thông tin rởm trên mạng rồi trét cứt vào lịch sử thì dân Việt Nam chúng tao không khiến nhé, đu càng máy bay ạ. Một lần nữa, mày lại tự chứng minh, con người mày kinh tởm tới mức chính mày cũng không nhận thức được mày tởm lợm đến mức nào. Bọn tao ỉa ra thông tin giả từ năm 2007 mà giờ mày vẫn hăng hái nuốt rồi khen ngon thì tụi tao vỗ tay hoan hô, con ạ. Tới 80% thông tin về lịch sử Việt Nam mày đưa lên wiki đều do bên tao luộc hết, con ơi. Cứ đớp từ từ kẻo nghẹn ! Ha-ha. Cứ ôm khư khư lấy, càng thế tụi tao càng dễ xỏ mũi lũ ngu như mày. Tự pha thuốc độc tự uống nhé, bọn tao đéo cản đâu ! Khôn lắm cái đồ ngu ạ. (27.67.141.255 (talk) 15:20, 17 August 2021 (UTC))

 * Development
 * Cut save-time for edits in half (T288639)
 * Mismatch Finder: We are making good progress on the tool. We made it possible to retrieve mismatches that are in the store part of the tool via an API.
 * Regular expressions in constraints are now no longer checked via the Query Service. The checks have been completely moved over to a dedicated service for regular expression checking. (T204031)
 * Edits made via the user interface (as opposed to with tools, bots, etc.) are now tagged as such to make them easier to filter (example - edits made to labels, descriptions and aliases on mobile are still missing but will follow soon)
 * Working on allowing to restrict constraints to certain entity types (T269724)

You can see all open tickets related to Wikidata here. If you want to help, you can also have a look at the tasks needing a volunteer.


 * Monthly Tasks
 * Add labels, in your own language(s), for the new properties listed above.
 * Comment on property proposals: all open proposals
 * Contribute to a Showcase item.
 * Help translate or proofread the interface and documentation pages, in your own language!
 * Help merge identical items across Wikimedia projects.
 * Help write the next summary!

Tech News: 2021-33
 Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes
 * You can add language links in the sidebar in the new Vector skin again. You do this by connecting the page to a Wikidata item. The new Vector skin has moved the language links but the new language selector cannot add language links yet.

Problems
 * There was a problem on wikis which use the Translate extension. Translations were not updated or were replaced with the English text. The problems have been fixed.

Changes later this week
 * A revision tag will soon be added to edits that add links to disambiguation pages. This is because these links are usually added by accident. The tag will allow editors to easily find the broken links and fix them. If your wiki does not like this feature, it can be hidden.
 * Would you like to help improve the information about tools? Would you like to attend or help organize a small virtual meetup for your community to discuss the list of tools? Please get in touch on the Toolhub Quality Signal Sessions talk page. We are also looking for feedback from tool maintainers on some specific questions.
 * In the past, edits to any page in your user talk space ignored your mute list, e.g. sub-pages. Starting this week, this is only true for edits to your talk page.
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from . It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from . It will be on all wikis from (calendar).

List of flags of Vietnam
I've partial-blocked this range from editing the article, and partial-blocked this IP as well. Let me know if the partial-blocks need to be extended to any other articles. OhNo itsJamie Talk 15:18, 22 August 2021 (UTC)


 * , thanks. I don't think that more measures should be taken against the range. A couple of years ago I was also a Globally Locked Sockmaster on that same FPT Hanoi range and it's ridiculously easy to switch IP addresses, you just turn your modem on and off and within 30 (thirty) seconds you're on a new IP, if you do this enough times you will be on another range. While I managed to get both globally unlocked and locally unblocked this user doesn't respect the process and has been actively socking on FPT Hanoi for almost a decade so range blocks won't stop them and as almost everyone in Hanoi uses that provider I would advise against blocking IP's on the range as it would likely cause more collateral damage than solve any issues. Protecting the page won't be wise too as good IP users also contribute. So for now it might be just wise to not do to much actions as (Musée Annam) simply jumps from IP to IP and from range to range. --Donald Trung (talk)  19:27, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I understand that it's a large range, but at the moment it's only partially-blocked from editing a few pages that the same user has targeted over the last few months. Uninvolved IPs can still propose changes on the talk pages. OhNo itsJamie Talk 19:48, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
 * , that's good, it's just that they're likely to jump range in a few days. Usually they just like insulting people so most of their edits are reverted by random patrollers. I kind of forgot that partial blocks were a thing but thanks for keeping the blocking to a minimum. --Donald Trung (talk) 19:57, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, partial blocks are a great tool; I use them frequently now. We have a lot of great regular contributors on IPs, so I do my best to avoid collateral from such ranges. OhNo itsJamie  Talk 01:21, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
