Original reporting output
First, I apologize for not writing in the project's own language.
Since May 1, when The Wikinewsie Group Newsletter first began tracking original reporting taking place across all projects, 227 stories have been published by 78 reporters 14 different language Wikinews projects. The projects with the greatest number of reporters engaged in original reporting were English with 15, Russian with 14, Polish with 13 and French with 10. Beyond these, original there were one or more journalists engaging in original reporting on Catalan, Chinese, Esperanto, German, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Serbian, Spanish and Ukrainian. The peak month for reporting across all projects was May with 52 articles. It was followed by June with 49, August with 44, September with 43 and July with 39.
In the past four months, Spanish, Polish, French, Ukrainian, Russian and English have all produced over 20 total pieces of original reporting, with Russian Wikinews publishing 41 stories and English Wikinews publishing 60 stories.
LauraHale, RockerballAustralia, Antanana, Agamitsudo, Dmitry Rozhkov, Plogi, Krassotkin, Schekinov Alexey Victorovich, and MadriCR have each produced 5 or more pieces of original reporting in the past four months. Another group of users, Joan301009, Bddpaux, Computron, Laslovarga, Fed4ev and Yakudza, have produced four articles each. If you are on this list, please seriously consider applying for accredited reporter status on English Wikinews. This will make it easier to identify contributors from around the globe to do original reporting on any special reporting projects done by The Wikinewsie Group.
For September, only three pieces of 43 original reports produced were translated from one language to another. They were Wikinews interviews specialists on China, Iran, Russia support for al-Assad, Wikinews interviews Dr Thomas Scotto and Dr Steve Hewitt about potential US military intervention in Syria, Atlético de Madrid defeats Real Madrid 1-0 in 2013 derby and Tokio gana la sede de los Juegos Olímpicos 2020. Original reporting is a major strength of Wikinews. It is one we should be playing to. Please consider translating your work into another language, or finding a local reporter to assist you with translation work and publishing policy. This will benefit all languages, promote more cooperation between projects, and expand news reach for our reporting which we can leverage to provide more opportunities for reporters.
The Wikinewsie Group is hoping to facilitate more cross-language work. The Wikinewsie Group/Local Wikinews policies is a list of local policies. If some one from each project could complete the row for their language, it would be incredibly useful. Thank you.
Every month, The Wikinewsie Group puts out a newsletter. Please consider putting any local project news on the newsletter. This could include discussions on reporter accreditation, installation of new extensions, translation policies, WMF related discussions of interest to the project. We want to know what Wikinews projects are up to. We need your assistance with that. Please share what is happening. --LauraHale (Diskussion) 18:08, 1. Okt. 2013 (CEST)

(This message is in English, please translate as needed)
Greetings!
Notifications will inform users about new activity that affects them on this wiki in a unified way: for example, this new tool will let you know when you have new talk page messages, edit reverts, mentions or links -- and is designed to augment (rather than replace) the watchlist. The Wikimedia Foundation's editor engagement team developed this tool (code-named 'Echo') earlier this year, to help users contribute more productively to MediaWiki projects.
We're now getting ready to bring Notifications to almost all other Wikimedia sites, and are aiming for a 22 October deployment, as outlined in this release plan. It is important that notifications is translated for all of the languages we serve.
There are three major points of translation needed to be either done or checked:
- Echo on translatewiki for user interface - you must have an account on translatewiki to translate
- Thanks on translatewiki for user interface - you must have an account on translatewiki to translate
- Notifications help on mediawiki.org. This page can be hosted after translation on mediawiki.org or we can localize it to this Wikipedia. You do not have to have an account to translate on mediawiki, but single-user login will create it for you there if you follow the link.
Please let us know if you have any questions, suggestions or comments about this new tool. For more information, visit this project hub and this help page. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 20:23, 4. Okt. 2013 (CEST)

Zeitspannen
Liebe Wikinewskollegen, vielleicht war ich gerade etwas rüpelhaft mit dem Stellen eines SLA und dem Entfernen eines Bausteins und ich habe das auf der einen Diskussionsseite "lächerlich" genannt. Es ist mehr als das nicht nur lächerlich, sondern auch unprofessionel, wenn man einen Baustein setzt, der 6 Stunden Gültigkeit hat und ihn nach Tagen immer noch unverändert stehen läßt und sich so scheinbar ein ein besonderes Recht an einem Artikel zu sichern meint. Die Aufforderung mitzuarbeiten wird durch solche Dinge ad absurdum geführt. Genauso sind unveröffentlichte Artikel, die über Wochen als "in Bearbeitung" (ohne Baustein) gelistet werden nicht eines Newsportals würdig. Alles was sich da abspielt ist öffentlich, dies ist keine Spielwiese und wenn Wikinews daran gelegen ist, durch Qualität zu überzeugen, dann gehört auch die Art und Weise (hier die Zeit) in der Artikel (und Bausteine darin) bearbeitet werden dazu. --Drgkl (Diskussion) 13:30, 5. Okt. 2013 (CEST)
Ja - stimmt. Ich wurde leider auch schon dabei erwischt. Vielleicht sollten wir eine zweite Zeitspanne einführen? In den englischen Wikinews sind die Regeln übrigens wesentlich klarer und strenger: Da gibt es z.B. die vorgeschriebene Revision, ohne die kein Artikel veröffentlicht wird. --Fmrauch (Diskussion) 11:06, 6. Okt. 2013 (CEST)
- Das Problem scheint im Augenblick wirklich die Zahl der aktiven Mitarbeiter zu sein, die eher klein zu sein scheint, deshalb sind so Dinge wie eine Pflichtrevision wohl schwer umzusetzen. Überhaupt ist es das alte Problem, dass es eigentlich genug Regeln gibt, sie aber niemand einhält bzw. kontrolliert und durchsetzt. Nachfrage: wie sollte denn eine solche zweite Zeitspanne aussehen? --Drgkl (Diskussion) 12:50, 6. Okt. 2013 (CEST)
Die Diskussion hier
Wäre es möglich, für diejenigen, die nicht so des Englischen mächtig sind, die wesenlichen Aussagen auf Deutsch zusammenzufassen? Ich könnte das auch machen, falls Bedarf besteht. --Fmrauch (Diskussion) 11:03, 6. Okt. 2013 (CEST)
Speak up about the trademark registration of the Community logo.
Hi all,
Please join the consultation about the Community logo that represents Meta-Wiki: m:Community Logo/Request for consultation.
This community consultation was commenced on September 24. The following day, two individuals filed a legal opposition against the registration of the Community logo.
The question is whether the Wikimedia Foundation should seek a collective membership mark with respect to this logo or abandon its registration and protection of the trademark.
We want to make sure that everyone get a chance to speak up so that we can get clear direction from the community. We would therefore really appreciate the community's help in translating this announcement from English so that everyone is able to understand it.
Thanks, Geoff & Yana 21:55, 8. Okt. 2013 (CEST)
