Your test

Foreign Ministers of Germany during the Weimar Republic were not called "imperial" foreign ministers in English, and such usage is utterly ridiculous as well as constitute original research. Federal is a correct translation of both terms used in German (Reichsminister/Bundesminister) - the latter does not mean federal more than the first. In accordance with previous consensus, German politicians are not to be numbered. Saris Marito (talk) 02:35, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
:Hello, I cannot say that I fully understand what you try to tell me. The ministers in Germany 1919-45 were called Reichsminister, and I do not see any reason to translate that with "Federal". Google "Imperial Minister Germany" and you will see that Reichs- is translated with "Imperial". Please try to avoid words like "ridiculous" when talking to fellow Wikipedians.--Ziko (talk) 11:09, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Signpost

Great! Since you are active on German and other Wikipedias, the best thing you could do for the ''Signpost'' would be to report on major happenings on those projects. For example, it would be interesting to have a report on how sighted versions on German Wikipedia have been going since all the existing articles were marked. We don't hear nearly enough about German and other major Wikipedias, so just keeping us up to date about what is going on would be a great addition to the ''Signpost'' (either with occasional updates, or even with a weekly report).

Piecemeal contributions to "News and notes" and "In the news" are also always appreciated (and drafts for those are usually linked from the planning room ↗), and we're trying to revive the "Discussion report" (Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-05-25/Discussion report ↗ for this coming week). If there's something else you'd like to do for the ''Signpost'', just let me know.--ragesoss (talk) 18:30, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
:Thanks for the tipps, Ragesoss, and sorry for being away a couple of days. I will see what I find that could be interesting for the English speaking community. Kind regards Ziko (talk) 23:04, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

::An essay about the differences between working on those different Wikipedias would be great. Except for a few tidbits here and there, the English WP community really doesn't know much about the character of other language projects. A beat like you describe would be good too, but I imagine it'd be tough to find someone who would/could keep it up for long.--ragesoss (talk) 15:31, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:: OK, I'll try to produce something and put it on a sub page of my user page. / My Handbuch ↗ could be a basis for the beat, but the pieces would have to be brushed up and updated, indeed. --Ziko (talk) 13:22, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Larry Abramson‎

Thank you for your translation.
Today I completed mapping out the artist list ↗ – including which ones already have German translations (11 of 50). I would greatly appreciate if you would look over the artists that I complete them in English (when I complete a page I add a date in parentheses after English) to see if you can translate the pages. I have added the date after German for the page you did of Larry Abramson‎.

Great artwork

''The Tea Leaf'' - Issue One - Recent news from the Teahouse

Hi! Welcome to the first edition of ''The Tea Leaf'', the official newsletter of the Teahouse ↗!
thumb|right|Spring has sprung! Stop by the WP:Teahouse|Teahouse ↗ for a cup of tea under the [[cherry blossoms ↗.]]

'''Metrics are out from week one.''' Week one showed that the need for Teahouse hosts to invite new editors to the Teahouse is urgent for this pilot period. It also showed that emailing new users invitations is a powerful tool, with new editors responding more to emails than to talk page templates. We also learned that the customized database reports created for the Teahouse have the highest return rate of participation by invitees. Check out the metrics here ↗ and see how you can help with inviting in our Invitation Guide ↗.

'''A refreshed "Your hosts" page encourages experienced Wikipedians to learn about the Teahouse and participate.''' With community input, the Teahouse has updated the Your hosts ↗ page which details the host roles within the Teahouse pilot and the importance that hosts play in providing a friendly, special experience not always found on other welcome/help spaces on Wikipedia. It also explains how Teahouse hosts are important regarding metrics reporting during this pilot. Are you an experienced editor who wants to help out? Take a look at the new page today and start learning about the hosts tasks and how you can participate!

'''Introduce yourself and meet new guests at the Teahouse.''' Take the time to welcome and get to know the latest guests ↗ at the Teahouse. New & experienced editors to Wikipedia can add a brief infobox about themselves and get to know one another with direct links to userpages. Drop off some wikilove to these editors today, they'll surely be happy to feel the wikilove!

''The Tea Leaf'' - Issue Two

Hi! Welcome to the second edition of ''The Tea Leaf'', the official newsletter of the Teahouse ↗!

'''Teahouse celebrates one month of being open!''' This first month has drawn a lot of community interest to the Teahouse. Hosts ↗ & community members have been working with the project team to improve the project in many ways including creating scripts to make inviting easier, exploring mediation processes for troubling guests, and best practices regarding mentoring for new editors who visit the Teahouse.

thumb|right|Springtime means fresh tea leaves... ↗

'''First month metrics report an average of 30 new editors visiting the Teahouse each week.''' Approximately 30 new editors participate in the Teahouse each week, by way of asking questions and making guest profiles. An average of six new questions and four new profiles are made each day. We'd love to hear your ideas ↗ about how we can spread the word about the Teahouse to more new editors.

'''Teahouse has many regulars.''' Like any great teahouse, our Teahouse has a 61% return rate of guests, who come back to ask additional questions and to also help answer others' questions. Return guests cite the speedy response rate of hosts and the friendly, easy to understand responses by the hosts and other participants as the main reasons for coming back for another cup o' tea!

'''Early metrics on retention.''' It's still too early to draw conclusions about the Teahouse's impact on new editor retention, but, early data shows that 38% of new editors who participate at the Teahouse are still actively editing Wikipedia 2-4 weeks later, this is compared with 7% from a control group of uninvited new editors who showed similar first day editing activity. Additional metrics can be found on the Teahouse metrics page ↗.

'''Nine new hosts welcomed to the Teahouse.''' Nine new hosts have been welcomed to the Teahouse during month one: Chicocvenancio, Cullen328, Hallows AG, Jeffwang, Mono, Tony1, Worm That Turned, Writ Keeper, and Nathan2055. Welcome to the Teahouse gang, folks!

'''Say hello to the new guests at the Teahouse.''' Take the time to welcome and get to know the latest guests ↗ at the Teahouse. Drop off some wikilove to these editors today, as being welcomed by experienced editors is a really nice way to make new editors feel welcome.

''The Tea Leaf'' - Issue Four

Hi! Welcome to the fourth issue of ''The Tea Leaf'', the official newsletter for the Teahouse ↗!

'''Teahouse pilot wraps up after 13 weeks''' After being piloted on English Wikipedia starting in February, the Teahouse wrapped up its pilot period on May 27, 2012. We expect this is just the beginning for the Teahouse and hope the project will continue to grow in the months to come!

<span style="font-size: 1.5em">Thank you and congratulations to all of the community members who participated - and continue to participate!</span>

'''What you've all been waiting for: Teahouse Pilot Report ↗ is released!''' We look forward to your feedback on the methodology and outcomes of this pilot project.

'''....and if a pilot report wasn't enough, the Teahouse Pilot Metrics Report ↗ is out too!''' Dive into the numbers and survey results to learn about the impact the Teahouse has made on English Wikipedia.

'''Teahouse shows positive impact on new editor retention and engagement'''

200px|right ↗
:*409 new editors participated during the entire pilot period, with about 40 new editors participating in the Teahouse per week.
:*Two weeks after participating, 33% of Teahouse guests are still active on Wikipedia, as opposed to 11% of a similar control group.
:*New editors who participated in the Teahouse edit 10x the number of articles, make 7x more global edits, and 2x as much of their content survives on Wikipedia compared to the control group.

'''Women participate in the Teahouse''' 28% of Teahouse participants were women, up from 9% of editors on Wikipedia in general, good news for this project which aimed to have impact on the gender gap too - but still lots to be done here!

'''New opportunities await for the Teahouse in phase two''' as the Teahouse team and Wikipedia community examine ways to improve, scale, and sustain the project. Opportunities for future work include:

:*Automating or semi-automating systems such as invites, metrics and archiving
:*Experimenting with more ways for new editors to discover the Teahouse
:*Building out the social and peer-to-peer aspects further, including exploring ways to make answering questions easier, creating more ways for new editors to help each other and for all participants to acknowledge each other's efforts
:*Growing volunteer capacity, continuing to transfer Teahouse administration tasks to volunteers whenever possible, and looking for new ways to make maintenance and participation easier for everyone.

'''Want to know how you can lend a hand at the Teahouse? Become a host!''' Learn more about what makes the Teahouse different than other help spaces on Wikipedia and see how you can help new editors by visiting here ↗.

'''Say hello to the new guests at the Teahouse.''' Take the time to welcome and get to know the latest guests ↗ at the Teahouse. Drop off some wikilove to these editors today, as being welcomed by experienced editors is really encouraging to new Wikipedians.

Credo Reference Update & Survey (your opinion requested)

Credo Reference ↗, who generously donated 400 free Credo 250 research accounts ↗ to Wikipedia editors over the past two years, has offered to expand the program to include 100 additional reference resources. Credo wants Wikipedia editors to select which resources they want most. So, we put together a quick survey to do that:

Link to Survey (should take between 5-10 minutes): http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/N8FQ6MM ↗

It also asks some basic questions about what you like about the Credo program and what you might want to improve.

At this time only the initial 400 editors have accounts, but even if you do not have an account, you still might want to weigh in on which resources would be most valuable for the community (for example, through WikiProject Resource Exchange ↗).

Also, if you have an account but no longer want to use it, please leave me a note so another editor can take your spot.

If you have any other questions or comments, drop by my talk page or email me at wikiocaasi@yahoo.com. Cheers! Ocaasi<sup> t | c ↗</sup> 17:38, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

''The Tea Leaf'' - Issue Five

thumb|right|Stop by for a tasty glass of wiki-iced tea ↗ at the Teahouse ↗, today! ↗
Hi! Welcome to the fifth edition of ''The Tea Leaf'', the official newsletter of the Teahouse ↗!

'''Guest activity increased in July.''' Questions are up from an average of 36 per week in June to 43 per week in July, and guest profile creation has also increased. This is likely a result of the automatic invite ↗ experiments we started near the end of month, which seeks to lessen the burden on hosts and other volunteers who manually invite editors. During the last week of July, questions doubled in the Teahouse! (But don't let that deter you from inviting ↗ editors to the Teahouse, please, there are still lots of new editors who haven't found Teahouse yet.)

'''More Teahouse hosts than ever.''' We had 12 new hosts sign up to participate at the Teahouse! We now have 35 hosts volunteering at the Teahouse. Feel free to stop by and see them all here ↗.

'''Phase two update: Host sprint.''' In August, the Teahouse team plans to improve the host experience by developing a simpler new-host creation process, a better way of surfacing active hosts, and a host lounge renovation. Take a look at the plan and weigh in here ↗.

'''New Teahouse guest barnstar is awarded to first recipient: Charlie Inks.''' Using the Teahouse barnstar designed by Heatherawalls, hosts hajatvrc and Ryan Vesey created the new Teahouse Guest Barnstar. The first recipient is Charlie Inks, for her boldness in asking questions at the Teahouse. Check out the award in action here ↗.

'''Teahouse was a hot topic at Wikimania!''' The Teahouse was a hot topic at Wikimania ↗ this past month, where editor retention and interface design was heavily discussed. Sarah and Jonathan presented the Teahouse during the Wikimedia Fellowships ↗ panel. Slides can be viewed here ↗. A lunch ↗ was also held at Wikimania for Teahouse hosts.

''The Tea Leaf'' - Issue Six

Hi! Welcome to the sixth edition of ''The Tea Leaf'', the official newsletter of the Teahouse ↗!

'''Teahouse serves over 700 new editors in six months''' on Wikipedia! Since February 27, 741 new editors have participated at the Teahouse. The Q&A board and the guest intro pages are more active than ever.

thumb|right|A lovely little teahouse nestled in Germany from Wiki Loves Monuments ↗ ↗

'''Automatic invites are doing the trick: 50% more new editors visiting each week.''' Ever since HostBot's automated invite trial phase ↗ began we've seen a boost in new editor participation. Automating a baseline set of invitations also allows Teahouse hosts to focus on serving hot cups of help to guests, instead of spending countless hours inviting.

'''Guests to the Teahouse continue to edit more & interact more with other community members than non-Teahouse guests''' according to six month metrics ↗. Teahouse guests make more than twice the article edits and edit more talk pages than other new editors.

'''New host process implemented''' which encourages anyone to get started as a Teahouse host in a few easy steps. Stop by the hosts ↗ page and become a Teahouse host today!

'''Host lounge renovations nearing completion.''' Working closely with Teahouse hosts, we've made some major renovations to the Teahouse Host Lounge ↗ - the main hangout and resource space for hosts. Learn more about the improvements here ↗.

Please fill out your JSTOR email

As one of the original 100 JSTOR account recipients, please fill out the very short email form you received just recently in order to renew your access. Even though you signed up before with WMF, we need you to sign up again with The Wikipedia Library for privacy reasons and because your prior access expired on July 15th. We ''do not'' have your email addresses now; we just used the Special:EmailUser feature, so if you didn't receive an email just contact me directly at jorlowitz{{@}}gmail.com. Thanks, and we're working as quickly as possible to get you your new access! Jake (Ocaasi) 19:48, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Ways to improve Italia und Germania

Hello, Ziko,

Thanks for creating Italia und Germania ↗! I edit here too, under the username Boleyn and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I have tagged the page ↗ as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process ↗ and note that:-

{{Bq|What do you mean by 'Literature'? Is it the references or just suggestions for further reading?}}

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and prepend it with <code><nowiki>{{Re|</nowiki>Boleyn<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. And, don't forget to sign your reply with <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> . For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse ↗.

Why are you deleting my discussions on George Floyd?

Hi, I was wondering why you deleted my edit request on the George Floyd talk page? I was about to reply to the person who had commented below but was unable to do so because of your deletion. I don't think I've violated any rules, have I? I'm new here so I might not be familiar with everything.

I hope you don't mind, but I was trying to figure out for a while why you were talking about some imaginary dog-walking conference, and why you chose such a weird metaphor for Wikipedians meeting up.

Then I checked the schedule, and after staring at it for a bit, added a sentence clarifying that, no, it was actually a thing that happened at Wikimania. Because no-one's going to presume anyone would schedule something that... uh...

Anyway, Found a few typos so I did a little more copyediting, but that's the only major change. <span style="text-shadow:grey 0.118em 0.118em 0.118em; class=texhtml">'''Adam Cuerden''' <sup>(talk)</sup><sub>Has about 8.1% of all FPs ↗</sub></span> 21:16, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
