Wikimedia Apps/Android FAQ/zh

Where can I download the app?
You can find our app on the Google Play Store: open the Play Store app on your device and search for "Wikipedia".

If your device does not use Google services, you may also find the app on other third-party app stores such as F-Droid, or by downloading the latest APK directly.

;維基百科安卓應用程式版與行動網頁版有何區別？
維基百科應用程式提供了優質且精簡的搜尋與閱讀體驗. 在行動裝置原生環境下，它能使用更少的流量讓條目更快的載入，也能像你愛的其他安卓應用程式那樣更流暢的提供響應介面. 此外還增加了維基百科網頁版上沒有（或者不可能有）的功能，諸如儲存條目進裝置以供日後閱覽，以及从條目里分享內容和圖片到您最愛的社群應用程式. Being a native app, it allows articles to load faster, and with less data usage. It also delivers a more responsive interface that is more consistent with other Android apps that you love. It adds features that are not available (or not possible) in the Web version of Wikipedia, such as saving pages to the device for later reading, and sharing content and images from articles to your favorite social media apps.

How do I donate to Wikipedia?
You can donate at any time by going to the "More" menu in the main screen and selecting Support Wikipedia. Unfortunately we cannot currently accept donations using Google Pay, or using your Google Store credits.



I already donated; why I am getting asked to donate again?
Due to our strict privacy guidelines, we don't actually connect your app usage or user account to your donation history. This means you may see a donation request in the app even if you have previously donated on the web.

Do I need to be connected to the Internet to use the app?
You do need a connection to download articles, and to use the Explore feed. However, if you save articles to your reading lists, they will be available for later reading, even without an internet connection.

支持哪些裝置？
我們的應用程式適用於 Android 5.0 (Lollipop) 以上

How do I report a typo or other error in an article?
Wikipedia is the world's largest encyclopedia that anyone can edit! If you see a typo or other error in an article, click the "pencil" icon or highlight any text and tap "Edit here" from the popup menu. This will show the Wikitext of the article which you can then edit and save.

If you make lots of edits, we recommend you log in to your account, so that you can keep track of your work, talk to other editors and join the worldwide Wikimedia community.

I see vandalism in an article. What should I do?
If you see text or images in an article that are clearly vandalism, you can always edit the article by tapping the "pencil" icon to the right of the article section that contains the vandalism. You can then remove the offending text and publish the edited content.



I see information that is biased or factually incorrect. What should I do?
If you see text in an article that may be incorrect, biased, or generally low-quality, you can join the discussion about that article on the corresponding Talk page for the article. You can access the Talk page by scrolling near the bottom and tapping the "View talk page" link.



Search
You can search Wikipedia from any of these locations in the app:


 * From the Explore feed in the main screen, by tapping the "Search Wikipedia" box at the top.
 * By tapping the "Search" icon in the bottom toolbar in the main screen.
 * While reading an article, by tapping the "Search" icon in the top toolbar.

     

Search within an article
From the top-right menu (three dots), select "Find in page". You will be able to type text to search within the current article, and the search results will be automatically highlighted and scrolled into view.

Explore feed
The home screen of the app features a feed of recommended content for reading. Each "card" in the feed represents a single article, or a short list of articles, for you to read. The types of cards you might find in the feed (depending on their language availability) include:


 * In the news: 與近期事件有關的條目
 * 趨勢：今日瀏覽量最多的條目（依據總瀏覽數）
 * 典範條目：維基百科上的今日典範條目
 * Featured picture: 每日圖片：維基共享資源上的今日精選圖片.
 * 繼續閱讀：根據您的目前瀏覽紀錄，提供一個繼續閱讀的捷徑.
 * 因為您閱讀：根據您的閱讀紀錄來提供一組建議閱讀的條目清單.
 * 在这一天：在这一天的历史事件.
 * 隨機條目：讓您能隨機挑選條目
 * 今日維基：開啟維基百科的主頁
 * 历史上的今天：在历史上的今天发生的事件.

How can I customize the feed?
If you don't want to see a particular card in the Explore feed, you can tap the overflow menu on that card (three dots at the top-right), and tap "Hide this card".

You may also tap the overflow menu on any card (three dots at the top-right) and select the "Customize the feed" option, which will allow you to choose which types of cards to show, the order in which they will appear, and the languages for which they will be shown.



Reading lists
您可將條目加入至閱讀清單，其功能與書籤功能相似. 您將可擁有多組閱讀清單，因此，您可組織並管理您的條目. 在預設情況下，加入閱讀清單的條目將會被儲存至裝置中以供您能離線閱覽. If you do not want certain articles to be available offline, you can go to the reading list, and press-and-hold the specific article. You will then see a list of options for that article, which includes an "Available offline" checkbox. You may access all of your reading lists by tapping the "My lists" button on the main screen.

When you are logged in to the app, your reading lists are automatically synchronized to your Wikipedia account, so that your lists will be restored if you install the app on a different device, or uninstall/reinstall it on the same device. Your reading lists will also be available if you log in to the iOS version of the app. However, at the moment your reading lists are not accessible from the desktop or mobile web version of the Wikipedia website.

       

Readability and themes
When reading an article, tap the "Theme" button in the bottom toolbar. There you will see numerous options, including:


 * Increase or decrease the text size for reading articles.
 * Change the color theme between Light, Sepia, Dark, or Black. (The Black theme is particularly useful for devices with an OLED display, since it will save battery power by keeping most pixels black.)
 * Whether to "Match system theme". Since Android itself now supports a light and dark theme, the app can automatically adjust to the system setting. If you do not want to match the system theme (i.e. if you want to use the Dark theme in the app, but keep the device in the Light theme, you'll need to unselect "Match system theme").
 * Whether to dim images. When using the Dark or Black theme, dimming images may be an additional benefit for distraction-free reading.



In-article conveniences

 * Tap the "Contents" button at the bottom (or swipe from right to left anywhere in the article) to see the table of contents for the current article. Tap on any section in the table of contents to jump to that section in the article.
 * Tap on references (superscript numbers) to see a popup that describes the reference in detail.
 * Tap any image to view it full-screen; pinch to zoom the image, or swipe left or right to view other images that appear in the article.

General
點選章節文字旁的"鉛筆"圖示來進入編輯模式. Note that some articles are protected from being edited by anonymous users or users with too few edits.

請注意，維基百科文章是採用 When you edit a section of an article in the app, the wikitext syntax will be automatically highlighted to assist with formatting.

  </li>  </li> </ul>


 * 我一定要登入後才能進行編輯嗎？
 * 不一定，您可以在沒有登入的情況下進行編輯，但您IP位址將會被記錄在您此次的編輯紀錄中，且任何人都可以看到此次紀錄.


 * 我可以上傳照片嗎？
 * 目前還沒辦法唷.


 * 我可以檢視頁面歷史以及討論頁面嗎？
 * 應用程式尚未支援此部分. 您可以在应用程序中的移动网页版本查看历史记录及讨论页面的链接.



Suggested edits
If you are keen to start making contributions to Wikipedia, the app provides you with various types of editing suggestions, presented as a continuous feed that you can swipe through. Go to the main screen of the app and tap the "Edits" button at the bottom to see the types of suggested edits that are available. These include:


 * Article descriptions: Add short descriptions to articles that are missing descriptions. These descriptions are shown when searching Wikipedia on your desktop or mobile device, and in various places in the app.
 * Image captions: Add captions to images on Wikimedia Commons that are missing captions. These captions are shown when tapping on images in articles to view them full-screen.
 * Image tags: Add tags to images on Wikimedia Commons. These tags will be used to make images more searchable and better structured.

  </li>  </li>  </li> </ul>

Languages
Wikipedia content exists in more than 300 languages, and you can select one or more of those languages to be used in the app.

When the app is first installed, it defaults to the system language of your device. If you have more than one keyboard language installed, the app should automatically detect those languages and add them to its list of languages.

To change the Wikipedia language, go to the "More" menu in the main screen, tap "Settings", then select "Wikipedia languages". From there you can add, remove, and rearrange your preferred languages. (Your topmost language will be used by default when searching Wikipedia.)
 * 設定與更改維基百科語言

  </li>  </li> </ul>

When reading an article, you can tap the "Language" button in the bottom toolbar to see other languages in which this article is available. (Note that not all articles will be available in all languages.)
 * 以不同語言閱讀

你們會追蹤我嗎？會使用我裝置上的資料嗎？
Yes, some of your actions within the app are tracked, so that we can continue to improve our features. Sending usage reports can be deactivated by going to "Settings", which can be accessed from the "More" menu in the main screen, and unchecking "Send usage reports".

我们也存有崩溃报告来帮助我们修复錯誤. 这与使用情况相分开. 如果检测到发生奔溃，我们将自动发送报告来帮助我们找到原因并修复这个问题（这对我们很有帮助！）. 所有收集的数据都是匿名的. You can disable crash reporting by going to "Settings" and unchecking "Send crash reports".

在使用報告中，包含那些訊息呢？
各種不同的資料都會被收集，詳情請參閱 event logging. 舉例來說，我們會收集在搜尋時所產生的延遲秒數，或是點擊分享按鈕的次數，甚至是調整字體大小的次數等等. 我們是用HockeyApp來收集這些崩潰報告. 當您選擇傳送這些崩潰報告時 (which we're immensely grateful for!), it tells us where in the code the crash originated from (the stack track across all active threads), and other diagnostic information such as the Android version and device type. 這些資料將不會成為您的個人識別資料. 此一舉動為提升應用程式開發流程及整體品質所用.

;為什麼此應用程式需要識別權限(GET_ACCOUNTS)呢？
若要讓此應用程式與您的維基百科帳號做整合，此權限是必須的. 這將可讓您儲存您的偏好設定且讓您在登入狀態下進行同步的動作. （此功能目前正在開發中）

為何此程式需要圖片/影音/檔案等權限(WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)？
當您想要在應用程式內儲存圖片時，您將會需要此權限. 當您想要分享圖片至其他應用程式時 （分享知識），會需要暫時儲存圖片，此時將需要此一權限.

为什么应用程序需要“完全网络访问（Full Network Access）”权限（$1，$2）？
This permission is used by the app to determine the state and quality of your network connection, and adjust certain aspects of its performance accordingly (e.g. loading lower-quality versions of images when on a limited connection).

Why does the app need the Startup (Boot Completed) permission (RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED)?
The app provides a feature that lets you receive notifications on your device about your Wikipedia account.These can be notifications about articles that you've edited, messages on your Talk page, thanks from other editors, etc. This can be turned on if you login to your account and enable notification polling. The service that checks for notifications runs in the background, and needs to restart itself automatically if your device itself is restarted. This is why the app needs to receive an event when your device initially boots up. If you do not enable the Notification polling feature, then the Startup permission is not used for any other purpose.

Is the connection between the app and Wikipedia encrypted?
是的，所有的連線透過 HTTPS 來連線.

I'm blocked from logging in or editing, what should I do?
If you have not made any edits to Wikipedia, but still find yourself blocked from logging in, creating an account, or making edits, it probably means that your IP address has been blocked, not "you" specifically. When you use your device on a mobile network, or on a shared WiFi connection, your IP address may be shared with many other users. These other users might have made unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, which resulted in blocking the IP address.

Note that the Wikimedia Foundation does not administer the blocking of IP addresses; instead, this work is done by a global community of volunteers.

For information about blocks and appealing a block on English Wikipedia, please see the information page at w:en:Help:I have been blocked.

My edits are being reverted / I disagree with certain administrative actions.
There is no central authority over Wikipedia. The Wikimedia movement is based in part on the premise that good articles are achievable through the checks and balances editors provide for each other. When editors disagree on how to achieve these goals, they must resolve disputes through consensus, drawing on the wider community where necessary. You can read more about the dispute resolution processes on English Wikipedia at w:en:WP:DR.

Reporting bugs

 * If the app crashes, it will automatically send a crash report to us, assuming you haven't disabled crash reporting in Settings.
 * If you see a bug (not a crash) or have a suggestion or feature request, you can send us feedback [mailto:android-support@wikimedia.org here].
