Global templates translation
Hi,

I appreciate your support at Global templates/Discuss!

I see in your userboxes that you are experienced with translation. If you have some time, it would be very nice if you could translate that page and also the short version of the specification proposal to Chinese?

Thanks! --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 12:45, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Hi,
 * Can you please translate one more sentence at Global templates/Proposed specification, short version? Thanks :) --Amir E. Aharoni &#123;{🌎🌍🌏}} 14:08, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Christmas cookies for you!

Help wanted for global templates
You have shown support for global templates in the past. Staff of the Wikimedia Foundation view this change as big. We need to convince the Wikimedia Foundation to start working on this. We have to reassure them there is sufficient support by local project communities.

You can help move this forward.

Please do setup a page on the local projects you are (most) active on in the language of the project. Tell your fellow editors why you believe global templates are necessary. Follow the local project decision process to come to a discussion outcome as support or not. There is plenty of time for discussion. Please reach a conclusion before the end of April 2021.

Please translate the coordinating page on meta to languages you are proficient in. meta:Gathering support from local projects for global templates

Please add a line to this meta page with a link to a discussion page on your local project(s).

The goal is to have the Wikimedia Foundation include a program to develop infrastructure for global templates in their 2021/2022 Annual Plan. The Wikimedia Foundation will decide on the Annual Plan in May/June this year.

The aim is to have several dozen local project communities to show support, and little concerns, issues or objections. Of course, any project can continue to use their local templates.

When you have questions about this initiative you can reach me at ad@undefinedhuikeshoven.org or + 31 6 40293574, and also on Telegram and Signal. You can also raise questions on the talk page on meta. Maybe some people would like to discuss this initiative in a meeting. Please let me know whether you would like to join a Zoom meeting in February.

Regards,
