User talk:PPelberg (WMF)

A bit late but I have answered the remarks : https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Topic:Vngou5jl7zz66ycr&topic_showPostId=vnocpy9nohsxivfx#flow-post-vnocpy9nohsxivfx

Hello Peter!

The graph you've shown in a comment is very useful: phab:T255785#6241517

I wonder how that can be accessed? The link above seems to ask for credentials.

hey @Aron Manning, right?

To access Superset (the tool I used to generate that graph), you'll need to be added to either one of the following groups: wmf or nda.^[1]

---

1. "To access Superset, you need wmf or nda LDAP access. For more details, see Analytics/Data access#LDAP access.

If you have that access, you can log in at superset.wikimedia.org with your developer shell username and password."

The username/credentials are from your wikitech: account. If that doesn't work, then it means that you need to get (legal) approval. Some of the information in that system is protected on privacy grounds.

Thanks, @Whatamidoing (WMF)! I'm only interested in the usages stats. Signing legal documents is not really in my interest ;-)

Hello, As a translater to your Edit newsletter, I’d love to also support you make the Talk_project page multilingual. Would you kindly consider tweaking that page for i18n perhaps? Of course above is not very very urgent, and readers may not have more time at hand to input. Wish you safety, and hang in there, --Omo

hi @Omotecho – we'd be thrilled for you to help us make the Talk pages project multilingual! What do you think we can do to make that work easier for you?

PPelberg (WMF) I, too, am excited you are reaching out to expanded readership. As for translation, two (plus two) points:

• please always separate section title from the body text: translators can finish at least section titles while on bus/lunch break, and community will grab the outline as you always have essence in section title;
• kindly break your writing into 30-50 words clusters, or insert translation tags that way. Longer it goes more vulnerable to discourage somebody to start working on it;
• too technical, though, tvar tags are very good as links are less broken by simple misspelling by translators;
• and finally, I have not checked its feasibility, though please consider applying a trick, Special:Mylanguage/ before any link to multilingual projects. Plain link jumps to /en page, while with that trick, readers start at /local_language pages, with /en as fall-back. One extra click-less feeels sooo good and being invited.

So, those are a memo which of course needs triage. Thank you indeed to care for the community, and we won’t be here without you guys.

I tried posting a message to you but it was posted to your sandbox at

Hi, PPelberg (WMF) having received your message on my userpage on the en:wikipedia, I noticed I cannot edit Topic on Talk:Talk pages project. Should I react on your userpage then? Thank you for your time. ~~~~

hi @Lotje – thanks for taking the time to ask! I assume you're asking where to respond to the question in the most recent Editing Team newsletter about memorable talk page experiences?

If so, the best place to react is by adding a reply to this thread: Topic:V8d91yh8gcg404dj

Please let me know if you have any other questions...

@Lotje thank you for sharing your experience! I moved the comment you posted to have its own reply...I hope that was ok :)
