Hi from WikiProject Indonesia
 '''Hi ! How are you?'''

'''WikiProject Indonesia invites you to join the project, and we are sure that you can help us greatly there. WikiProject Indonesia is a project dedicated to improve all articles related to Indonesia and currently we have got 37 members.

Here are some things you can help us with:
 * Assessment: It's where you can tag Indonesia-related articles out there with our project banner and help us gather all articles.
 * Cartography: Or maybe you can draw maps? It is a very important sector of our project, since Indonesia is a big country with thousands of islands, maps could be very useful.
 * Collaboration: Every fortnight, we choose a short article that needs to be looked at and we improve that particular article together. The main goal is, of course, to reach featured article status.
 * Or you can just help us expand articles related to Indonesia.

Have fun and see you there!. --  Imo eng  11:38, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Your DYK submission
Hello! Your submission at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed. There still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath and respond there as soon as possible. I have verified the article for DYK, but the hook is possibly unsuitable for the front page. Perhaps you could think of an alternative one, at least as a "backup". Regards, &mdash; BillC  talk 02:39, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

help me
Tolong donk, saya sedang diblokir nih di WBI dengan alasan melakukan intimidasi terhadap banyak sekali orang yang tidak setuju dengan pencalonan "televisi" sebagai artikel pilihan terutama kepada Anda (Sentausa). Padahal jelas-jelas tidak ya kan pak. Saya kan hanya suruh mempertimbangkan saja atau hanya bercanda. Kalo gitu sampaikan permintaan pencabutan status blokir terhadap sang pemblokir tersebut (id:Pengguna:Stephensuleeman) Kasihanilah saya to, masak saya harus menikmati liburan Lebaran yang kemudian masih dilanjutkan pada saat liburan Natal nanti dengan keadaan didalam jeruji besi gini. Lagipula jika 1 saja pengguna yang ada di WBI tidak ada/tidak aktif/mengundurkan diri/alasan lain maka berkuranglah pula pertambahan artikel disana. --Erik Evrest (talk) 11:15, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Tetapi soal alasan pemblokiran itu (Perilaku intimidasi/pelecehan: vandalisme) itu jujur saja saya tak pernah melakukan vandalisme apalagi di halaman pengguna (apalagi yang pengurus) Lihat saja ini --> http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Istimewa:Kontribusi_pengguna/Erik_Evrest Tapi memang intimidasinya terjadi kepada para pemvoting tidak setuju di pengusulan status AP artikel "TV" cuma tidak terlalu parah dan hanya suruh untuk mempertimbangkan saja karena saya mengembangkan artikel tersebut sudah dengan susah payah dan sesuai. Maklum karena para pemvoting tersebut adalah para newbie. Namun masalah pelecehan itu ya memang hanya sedang guyon (bercanda) seperti yang saya singgung sebelumnya. Tapi yang paling menarik perhatian saya dalam masalah ini adalah pernyataan Stephensuleeman di halaman pembicaraan Anda di WBI.
 * Mengenai masa pemblokirannya juga keterlaluan karena saya ini termasuk pengguna lama di WBI (soedah sedjak tahoen 2009) Terus juga saya udah giat berkontribusi di WBI. Ditambah saya tak pernah melakukan vandalisme artikel dan hanya masalah sosialisasi saja terhadap sesama pengguna. Jadi tidak boleh diperlakukan kaya para anon yang biasanya kaya kutu loncat (suka gonta-ganti alamat IP supaya tidak ditangkap oleh pengurus) Saya juga tak mau hanya diperpendek masa pemblokirannya. Nanggung, bukannya saya tidak sabaran tapi jelas-jelas saya tidak melakukan hal tersebut. Terakhir, kulihat Anda buat pesan baru di halaman pembicaraannya si pemblokir saya (Stephensuleeman) sebaiknya Anda buat bagan baru agar mudah dilihat. Tapi syukurlah dengan Anda memperhatikan pesan ini dan mengatakannya pada di Stephen kuharap dapat merubah keadaan yang amat diskriminasi ini mengingat Mimihitam mengatakan kepada saya tentang permasalahan terhadap Anda (yang sebetulnya hanya salah paham) Ku harap Anda menjadi pilar penegakan soal menyoal permasalahan ini Oh ya, omongin juga permasalahan ini di Warung Kopi di WBI agar dibicarakan secara lebih nyata. Makasih. Salam --Erik Evrest (talk) 15:44, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Hi, just to let you know I changed the file earlier (by this edit) because the file you put in yesterday had become a red link over night. I think the name had been changed, and I didn't realize there was a new name. The one you put in is a better version of course. DeCausa (talk) 10:27, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Medical Translation Newsletter

sign up for monthly delivery



This is the first of a series of newsletters for Wikiproject Medicine's Translation Task Force. Our goal is to make all the medical knowledge on Wikipedia available to the world, in the language of your choice. note: you will not receive future editions of this newsletter unless you *sign up*; you received this version because you identify as a member of WikiProject Medicine

Spotlight - Simplified article translation

Wikiproject Medicine started translating simplified articles in February 2014. We now have 45 simplified articles ready for translation, of which the first on African trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness has been translated into 46 out of ~100 languages. This list does not include the 33 additional articles that are available in both full and simple versions.

Our goal is to eventually translate 1,000 simplified articles. This includes:
 * WHO's list of Essential Medicines
 * Neglected tropical diseases
 * Key diseases for medical subspecialties like: oncology, emergency medicine (list), anatomy, internal medicine, surgery, etc.

We are looking for subject area leads to both create articles and recruit further editors. We need people with basic medical knowledge who are willing to help out. This includes to write, translate and especially integrate medical articles.

What's happening?

I've () taken on the role of community organizer for this project, and will be working with this until December. The goals and timeline can be found here, and are focused on getting the project on a firm footing and to enable me to work near full-time over the summer, and part-time during the rest of the year. This means I will be available for questions and ideas, and you can best reach me by mail or on my talk page.
 * IEG grant

For those going to London in a month's time (or those already nearby) there will be at least one event for all medical editors, on Thursday August 7th. See the event page, which also summarizes medicine-related presentations in the main conference. Please pass the word on to your local medical editors.
 * Wikimania 2014

There has previously been some resistance against translation into certain languages with strong Wikipedia presence, such as Dutch, Polish, and Swedish. What was found is that thre is hardly any negative opinion about the the project itself; and any such critique has focused on the ways that articles have being integrated. For an article to be usefully translated into a target-Wiki it needs to be properly Wiki-linked, carry proper citations and use the formatting of the chosen target language as well as being properly proof-read. Certain large Wikis such as the Polish and Dutch Wikis have strong traditions of medical content, with their own editorial system, own templates and different ideas about what constitutes a good medical article. For example, there are not MEDRS (Polish,German,Romanian,Persian) guidelines present on other Wikis, and some Wikis have a stronger background of country-specific content.
 * Integration progress


 * Swedish Translation into Swedish has been difficult in part because of the amount of free, high quality sources out there already: patient info, for professionals. The same can be said for English, but has really given us all the more reason to try and create an unbiased and free encyclopedia of medical content. We want Wikipedia to act as an alternative to commercial sources, and preferably a really good one at that. Through extensive collaborative work and by respecting links and Sweden specific content the last unintegrated Swedish translation went live in May.
 * Dutch Dutch translation carries with it special difficulties, in part due to the premises in which the Dutch Wikipedia is built upon. There is great respect for what previous editors have created, and deleting or replacing old content can be frowned upon. In spite of this there are success stories: Anafylaxie.
 * Polish Translation and integration into Polish also comes with its own unique set of challenges. The Polish Wikipedia has long been independent and works very hard to create high quality contentfor Polish audience. Previous translation trouble has lead to use of unique templates with unique formatting, not least among citations. Add to this that the Polish Wikipedia does not allow template redirects and a large body of work is required for each article. (This is somewhat alleviated by a commissioned Template bot - to be released). - List of articles for integration
 * Arabic The Arabic Wikipedia community has been informed of the efforts to integrate content through both the general talk-page as well as through one of the major Arabic Wikipedia facebook-groups: مجتمع ويكيبيديا العربي, something that has been heralded with great enthusiasm.

Integration is the next step after any translation. Despite this it is by no means trivial, and it comes with its own hardships and challenges. Previously each new integrator has needed to dive into the fray with little help from previous integrations. Therefore we are creating guides for specific Wikis that make integration simple and straightforward, with guides for specific languages, and for integrating on small Wikis.

Feature – Ebola articles
During August we have translated Disease and it is now live in more than 60 different languages! To help us focus on African languages Rubric has donated a large number of articles in languages we haven't previously reached–so a shout out them, and Ian Henderson from Rubric who's joined us here at Wikipedia. We're very happy for our continued collaboration with both Rubric and Translators without Borders!
 * Just some of our over 60 translations:


 * Xhosa
 * Northern Sotho
 * Zulu
 * Tsonga
 * Venda
 * Hausa
 * Igbo
 * Yoruba
 * Kinyarwanda
 * Swahili
 * Tigrinya

At Wikimania there were so many enthusiastic people jumping at the chance to help out the Medical Translation Project, but unfortunately not all of them knew how to get started. That is why we've been spending considerable time writing and improving guides! They are finally live, and you can find them at our home-page! We're proud to announce a new sign up page at WP:MTSIGNUP! The old page was getting cluttered and didn't allow you to speficy a role. The new page should be easier to sign up to, and easier to navigate so that we can reach you when you're needed! Translations are of both full articles and shorter articles continues. The process where short articles are chosen for translation hasn't been fully transparent. In the coming months we hope to have a first guide, so that anyone who writes medical or health articles knows how to get their articles to a standard where they can be translated! That's why we're currently working on medical good lede criteria! The idea is to have a similar peer review process to good article nominations, but only for ledes. -- CFCF  🍌 (email) 13:09, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
 * New roles and guides!

Discussion at Talk:Sarah Azhari
I invite you to please join the discussion at Talk:Sarah Azhari.

Hello, we are seeking help with the Sarah Azhari article, created in 2013 & recently the subject of a deletion proposal. At issue was whether or not the Indonesian language sources establish notability. I am inviting you to the discussion at Talk:Sarah Azhari because you are in the Category:User id-N & have a minimum of 1,000 edits across all Wikimedia projects.

I realize that some of you are very busy while others may no longer be editing. Nevertheless, I thought it wise to consult with you.

Thank your for the work that you do on Wiki[mp]edia! Peaceray (talk) 21:06, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
