Wikimedia Apps/iOS Suggested edits/pt-br



Boas-vindas às edições sugeridas
Edições Sugeridas é uma nova maneira de editar a Wikipédia no iOS. Nós ficamos felizes que você esteja experimentando.



O que são as Edições Sugeridas?
As Edições Sugeridas apresentam oportunidades para pequenas — mas vitais — contribuições para a Wikipédia. Nós gostaríamos de destacar os vários jeitos que as pessoas podem editar a Wikipédia, enquanto tornamos mais fácil e mais acessível criar contribuições de qualidade



Começando com edições Sugeridas
Nossa atual versão de edições sugeridas é um protótipo, o qual estamos usando para colher opiniões. Para testar Edições Sugeridas no iOS:


 * 1) Visit https://testflight.apple.com/join/ETjXlUyi to download the test build

Contribution opportunities are the central element of Suggested edits. Here you can find ways to contribute to Wikipedia. At the moment we offer a task to add alt text to images. We are going to add more contribution types soon, stay tuned.

What is alt text?
Alternative text (or alt text) is text associated with an image that serves the same purpose and conveys the same essential information as the image.

What is alt text used for?
In situations where the image is not available to the reader, perhaps because they have turned off images in their web browser or are using a screen reader due to a visual impairment, the alternative text ensures that no information or functionality is lost. Absent or unhelpful alternative text can be a source of frustration for visually impaired users. On Wikipedia, alternative text is typically supplied through a combination of the image caption and the text supplied for the image  parameter in the MediaWiki markup.

Keep it short and clear
1-2 lines of plain text with no acronyms, abbreviations, or jargon

Describe what can be seen
Don’t add your own research, interpretation, or point of view

Focus on what is relevant to the article
But don’t repeat text that is already in the caption

Transcribe words and graphics
Write out any words in the image, in quotation marks, and summarize the main idea of maps, diagrams, and charts

Type of image
Do not start with ‘This is an image of…’ but describe the medium or style, if relevant

Take care with people
Only identify public figures and make sure any description is relevant, apparent, and verifiable
