Welcome to Suggested edits
Suggested edits is a new way to edit Wikipedia on Android. We appreciate that you are giving it a try.

What is Suggested edits?
Suggested edits presents opportunities for small but vital contributions to Wikipedia. We would like to raise awareness that everyone can edit Wikipedia and make contributing easier and more accessible for everyone.

Get started with Suggested edits
The Suggested edits home page consists of two areas: Profile statistics and contribution opportunities. Contribution opportunities are the central element of Suggested edits. Here you can find ways to contribute to Wikipedia. At the moment we offer tasks to add or translate article descriptions and image captions. If you want to know more or learn how to edit like a pro, check out the dedicated sections below:


 * Article descriptions
 * Image captions

We are going to add more contribution types soon, stay tuned.

Profile statistics display information about your activity within Suggested edits. They start to populate once you've made your first Suggested edits.


 * Contributions displays the number of contributions you’ve made with Suggested edits in the past 30 days.
 * Pageviews displays the total number of times in the last 30 days that others viewed items you contributed to using Suggested edits.
 * Edit streak displays how many days without a break you’ve contributed via Suggested edits. If you haven’t contributed in a while, it shows your last contribution date.
 * Edit quality is based on how many times one of your contributions was reverted (that is: undone by another editor). The fewer reverted contributions, the better the edit quality.

Co jsou to popisy článků?

 * Short, multilingual descriptions of items (e.g. Wikipedia articles)
 * Article descriptions are not full sentences, but small bits of information.
 * In most cases, the proper length is between two and twelve words.

K čemu jsou popisky článků využívány?
Popisky článků se zobrazují v aplikaci pod titulkem článků na Wikipedii, aby pomohly čtenáři identifikovat článek, který hledají. Article descriptions are stored and maintained on Wikidata and have been designed to disambiguate items with the same or similar labels. Descriptions are also shown outside the Wikipedia site and apps: for example, in Google searches.

Popis článku shrnuje základní informace o tématu článku, aby čtenáři ihned pochopili, o čem článek pojednává. These are known in the Wikimedia community as Wikidata descriptions.

Tipy pro vytváření popisů článků
Popis článku se ideálně vejde na jeden řádek, měl by obsahovat dvě až dvanáct slov. Začínají malým písmenem, pokud není první slovo vlastní podstatné jméno (v angličtině a jiných jazycích také nezačínají členem, jako jsou a, an, the). Například:


 * obraz Leonarda da Vinciho (popis článku pro článek Mona Lisa)
 * nejvyšší hora na Zemi (popis pro článek Mount Everest)

Další tipy pro napsání dobrého popisku článku:


 * Vyvarujte se informacím, které se pravděpodobně změní (např.: „současný předseda vlády…“)
 * Vyvarujte se názorovým, předpojatým nebo propagačním tvrzením (např.: „nejlepší…“)
 * Vyvarujte se kontroverzním tvrzením

Více informací je dostupné na Wikidata descriptions help page.

Více o popiscích článků
Popisy článků jsou uloženy a spravovány na Wikidatech, projektu nadace Wikimedia, která poskytuje bezplatnou, kolaborativní a mnohojazyčnou databázi podporující Wikipedii a další projekty.

Co jsou popisky obrázků

 * Krátké vícejazyčné popisky obrázkových souborů
 * Limited to 90 characters in length and cannot contain markup

What are image captions used for?
Image captions describe an image to help readers understand the meaning and context of an image. They are also used to provide alternative information for an image if people cannot view it, e.g. because of a slow internet connection or if people use a screen reader.

Tips for creating image captions
Image captions should be short descriptions of what the image shows. They are generally four to twelve words long. They can also contain information about the artist or creator of the image.

Remember to keep your captions neutral. Avoid making value judgements such as "beautiful", "good" or "ugly".

The difference between the image description and the image caption is that the description can have a lot of information about the file. If the image is a scan it can have details about the original photograph or artwork. It can have links. The image caption should ignore all this and just describe what it shows, not the information about the file.

A good image caption should:


 * Aim to briefly describe the contents of an image
 * Describe the image such that those with vision or other impairments can imagine what it looks like
 * Contain some keywords that people are likely to use to search for an image (so a picture of a cat should include the word "cat" somewhere in the caption)

In many cases, the caption will be similar or identical to the description (or even the file title!). For example, File:Fire station Hallstatt - October 2017 - 02.jpg has the English caption "Hallstatt fire station in October 2017".

More on image captions
Image captions are stored and maintained on Wikimedia Commons, a project of the Wikimedia Foundation which provides an online repository of free-use images, sounds, other media, and JSON files supporting Wikipedia and other projects.

Image tags

 * See also: Commons:Depicts

What are image tags?
"Image tags" is a shorthand phrase for what the Commons community calls Depicts statements.

What are image tags used for?
By adding image tags, you will help make images easier to search for on Commons, the free license image repository that Wikipedia uses for images in its articles.

Tips for adding image tags
Please add tags conservatively. If there are multiple items clearly and deliberately depicted by the image, all should be added as separate tags, within reason. For example, should be tagged with "Bonnie and Clyde", "Bonnie Parker", and "Clyde Barrow". Identify the most important thing(s) in the image.

Be as specific as you can. The image tags suggested by the Android app might be too generic for some images, so we encourage you to search for the most relevant tags by tapping "+ Add tag". In the example shown below, the picture is of the Williamsburg Bridge, but that is not one of the suggested tags. You could add it yourself, however, by tapping "+ Add tag" and searching for "Williamsburg Bridge".

If none of the tags match, you can mark tags as rejected by tapping “Publish” without selecting any of the suggested tags.
