Bonjour Thibaut120094. Après passage de ton bot sur Changement de nom des communes en France [1], la moitié gauche de l'article est devenue une grande colonne blanche. Peux-tu y remédier s'il te plait ? Merci d'avance. Père Igor (discuter) 14 juin 2023 à 11:29 (CEST)Répondre[répondre]
Utiliser le modèle {{Sommaire}}, comme ça on sait que ça a été ajouté volontairement.
De toute façon que ce soit ce modèle ou __TOC__, ça n’a plus aucun effet dans l’interface par défaut utilisée par les lecteurs. — Thibaut (discuter) 14 juin 2023 à 20:21 (CEST)Répondre[répondre]
D'accord merci ^^.

Oui, {{Sommaire}} ne sert pas beaucoup plus (il est présent sur 30 000 articles). J'apprend également d'existence de {{Sommaire à droite}} qui non seulement ne sert à rien par défaut, mais en plus quand il servait n'était pas consensuel mais est présent sur près de 900 articles...

Bonjour Thibaut120094. Je vous contacte puisque j'ai pu voir sur le Projet:Japon que vous étiez au point sur les questions de transcription du japonais. Je compte travailler sur les as de l'aviation de l'aéronavale japonaise pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. J'ai pas mal de sources à ce sujet, mais toutes sont en anglais et ne présentent jamais les noms des pilotes dans leur écriture en kanji. Je pourrais en retrouver un certain nombre par divers moyens mais pas l'intégralité. Est-il possible de retrouver l'écriture originale du nom en kanji à partir de la version transcrite ? Connaissant un peu les particularités de l'écriture des noms japonais, j'en doute, mais je préfère demander à plus connaisseur que moi. Merci d'avance, Othrod (discuter) 23 juin 2023 à 11:17 (CEST)Répondre[répondre]
En général, si la personne est assez connue, il est possible de retrouver son nom dans une encyclopédie (comme Kotobank) en cherchant la lecture du nom en hiragana, sinon il faut fouiller plus en profondeur dans les sources historiques japonaises.
Il faut savoir qu'il y a plusieurs sinogrammes qui peuvent avoir la même lecture, c'est pour cette raison qu'il faut chercher dans les sources en japonais pour être sûr que ce sont les bons sinogrammes.
J'ai vu qu'il y avait une liste dans un de vos brouillons, je peux essayer de chercher les noms en sinogrammes si ça vous dit ?
Si vous voulez, ce serait sympa. Concernant les sources japonaises, les noms sont susceptibles d'être mentionnés dans cet ouvrage et celui-ci, dont j'ai les versions anglaises. Othrod (discuter) 24 juin 2023 à 14:42 (CEST)Répondre[répondre]

Bonjour, la PDD renvoie tout d'abord à Wikipédia:Autorisation d'utilisation d'image/Logo où il est question de « Reproduction d'une image symbolisant une « marque déposée » », en tant qu'elle dépend du droit des marques. Par ailleurs, suite notamment à cette discussion à laquelle tu avais participé, le modèle {{marque déposée}} a été changé, ainsi que sa sa page de documentation,en 2018. Il n'y a à l'évidence pas de protection pour un logotype ou une marque figurative au regard du droit des marques en dehors d'un dépôt. Je ne comprends pas très bien ton objection. Certes, la PDD n'est pas parfaitement bien rédigée, un juriste aurait probablement dit marque figurative ou logotype déposés, mais cela vaut-il la peine de pinailler ? Le point important est que l'on parle de situations où il y a une protection par le droit des marques. Cordialement, ― Racconish💬 12 juillet 2023 à 15:46 (CEST)Répondre[répondre]

Bonjour Thibaut120094 (d · c · b), merci de ton intervention [[2]]. J'ai un peu regardé les contributions de l'utilisateur. Et je ne crois pas qu'il comprenne. Ex : Génétique et réussite éducative. Lien interlangue: rien, et pourtant la un utilisateur lui a demandé de mettre le modèle traduction. Réponse le 15 juillet sur sa pdd : Merci. Je vais m'assurer de le faire.
Tu vas me dire qu'il n'y a pas de quoi en faire un fromage. Et pourtant.
Après tout il n'y a peut-être pas d'interwiki. Peu probable, toutes les réfs sont en anglais, même celles dont les titres sont traduits.
J'ai cherché si par hasard, il n'y aurait pas un article en anglais pour Génétique et réussite éducative. Oui, article créé le 3 juillet par le même utilisateur, et mis en DdA le 16 [[3]]. Et il se trouve, si j'ai bien compris, que l'utilisateur a été banni le 16 juillet à 06:56, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [[4]]. J'ai pu tout mal lire mais vu le nombre de pages qu'il a faites en quelques jours en français, vu les discussions sur en.wiki que tu as signalées, et vu le bannissement, je me dis qu'il y a peut-être quelque chose à faire avant qu'on ne se retrouve devant un bouffe-temps. S'il faut se taper la vérification des sources (discutées sur la DdA), on n'a pas fini. Je ne suis pas spécialiste de ce genre de truc, toi beaucoup plus que moi. Qu'en penses-tu?

Bonjour Thibaut,
J'ai rencontré un message de blocage de proxy ouvert sur l'adresse 147.161.185.93 (identifiant de blocage #4137604). Je vous contacte car apparemment c'est vous qui avez bloqué le range 147.161.185.0/24. Il se trouve que c'est une adresse du service Zscaler utilisé par des entreprises sur les PCs de leurs collaborateurs. Je ne sais pas si c'est une erreur ou s'il y a une bonne raison de considérer Zscaler comme un proxy ouvert, mais cela risque de poser des problèmes vu que de plus en plus d'entreprises semblent sécuriser les connexions par ce type de solutions. Qu'en pensez-vous ?

User:Luca.favorido/linkypop.js is a script that can be used to search an identifier on an external site. It provides a button to search for an identifier as soon as you type it in the property input field. For example, if you type “ORCID”, an icon with a lens will appear, and when you click it, a new tab will open with the ORCID site looking for the name of the researcher. You can then copy the URL and paste it to Wikidata.

Welcome to the 600th Wikidata Weekly Summary!modifier
Dernier commentaire : il y a 1 mois1 commentaire1 participant à la discussion
Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
Welcome to the 600th Weekly Summary!
Lydia initiated the weekly newsletter at the start of the Wikidata project, before it even went live, to keep the community in the loop about the developments, the new projects and tools. Léa carried on the newsletter in 2016 and then it was my turn in 2020. The newsletter has been going strong for eleven years, with its content powered by the community, and delivered every week without fail. Thank you to everyone who helped fill in the different sections of the Weekly Summary thus far ❤️ --Mohammed
« Today it is time to celebrate Wikidata’s 11th birthday. Let’s take a look back at the past year and what’s coming.
Wikidata’s world - map of Wikidata Items with a geocoordinate
There are now over 12.200 amazing people who are actively editing on Wikidata - 3000 of them even making more than 100 edits a month ♥️ Thank you! Without you Wikidata wouldn’t be what it is today. Thank you for helping give more people more access to more knowledge every single day. This year also marks the year we can welcome a new sister to the Wikimedia projects: Wikifunctions is live, letting us all geek out on functions in anticipation of Abstract Wikipedia. Another big milestone was Wikibase Cloud coming out of private beta. Now you can more easily run your own Wikibase and collect and maintain data that doesn’t fit into Wikidata. 2023 was also the year when the efforts of Wikidata editors were recognized across the Wikimedia movement with the awarding of the Wikimedian of the Year award to Taufik Rosman and the Wikimedia Laureate award to Siobhan Leachman. Over the coming year I want us to find ways how we can bring more people, who are already editing a bit here and there, closer to the community and help them find their place in our community. If you are one of them and have not found your place yet, check out a WikiProject related to your interests. Wikidata has something for everyone 😉
Wikidata now has over 106 Million Items and nearly 1.2 Million Lexemes. We are closing in on 2 Billion edits, making about 20 Million edits per month. All this content is used to create useful, quirky, educational or just fun applications that wouldn’t be possible without Wikidata and all the work you put into it. Check out Notable People for example. Over the coming year we want to make that even easier by building better APIs, lessening the strain on the Query Service, doing more outreach to developers as well as making our data more usable by ironing out ontology issues. In addition there will be increased focus on improving how the other Wikimedia projects integrate Wikidata. With the opening up of Wikibase Cloud we will hopefully also see many new Wikibases pop up that cover more specialized data or be used as playgrounds to prepare data for Wikidata. I am looking forward to a growing Wikibase Ecosystem and excited about more Linked Open Data becoming available to the world, with Wikidata being an entryway to it all.
And last but not least: if you want to learn a bit more about the history and backstory of Wikidata, then you might like Wikidata: The Making Of by Denny, Markus and me.
List of presents gathered by the community for Wikidata's eleventh birthday
Luthor is a multi-lingual tool for adding usage examples to lexemes on Wikidata, from sentences found on Wikisource in the same language. (by Asaf Bartov)
সংকলক একটি সরঞ্জাম যেটা দিয়ে উইকিসংকলনের লেখাগুলির উইকিউপাত্ত আইটেম অনুসারে সে লেখাগুলিকে উন্নত ভাবে অনুসন্ধান করা যায়। - Sangkalak is a tool with which Wikisource works can be searched more readily, using the Wikidata items for those works. (present from Mahir256) (by মাহির২৫৬-এর উপহার)
Creating new Lexemes? For a lot more languages you now no longer need to provide a spelling variant when creating a new Lexeme, making it even easier to contribute data about words in your language. (present from the development team)
The Mismatch Finder, the tool to help review mismatches between Wikidata and other data sources now also has support for mismatches on qualifiers. This allows it to be useful also for issues that are in the data in qualifiers. (present from the development team)
Upcoming: Next Linked Data for Libraries LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group call October 31, 2023: We will hear from Darnelle Melvin, Cory Lampert, and Andre Hulet, University of Nevada-Las Vegas Libraries, on WireframeVG: A Search and Discovery Application for Wikidata Projects. Agenda

Notable People is a map project by Topi Tjukanov that showing birthplaces of the most "notable people" around the world. It uses the combined data of Wikipedia and Wikidata from the paper's "a cross-verified database of notable people, 3500 BC-2018 AD" by Morgane Laouenan, Palaash Bhargava, Jean-Benoît Eyméoud, Olivier Gergaud, Guillaume Plique & Etienne Wasmer. The data shows only one person for each unique geographic location with the highest notability rank.
Wikimedia Research Fund Update update. "You can apply for research funds (USD 2K-50K) until December 15, 2023. While all research proposals related to Wikimedia projects are welcome, we particularly encourage research studies on medium to small size languages and communities, as well as in low resourced languages and projects."
The Wikidata For Wikimedia Projects team is investigating the different ways Wikidata is used in the sister projects. We would like to speak with you about your experiences integrating or connecting Wikidata, if you'd like to tell us, please sign up for an interview on our project page or on our Registration Form.

Lexicographical data: We switched the Property that is used to pre-select the spelling variant on the Special:NewLexeme page from P218 (ISO 639-1 code) to P305 (IETF language tag) to make use of the latter’s larger coverage. (phab:T348923)
EntitySchemas: We are continuing to work on addressing the feedback from the testing of the new datatype in the test system.

Wikibase REST API:
We have implemented the endpoints for PATCH /entities/items/{item_id}/aliases (phab:T337371), PATCH /entities/properties/{property_id}/aliases (phab:T342982) and PATCH /entities/properties/{property_id}/labels (phab:T342980)
We started working on the new endpoints for POST /entities/items/{item_id}/aliases/{language_code} (phab:T335842) and DELETE /entities/items/{item_id}/descriptions/{lang_code} (phab:T342986)
Language codes:
We made Special:NewLexeme more likely to guess the spelling variant for you by changing the Property we use to get the language code. Now you will see the spelling variant input pop up less often. (phab:T349652)
We started work towards allowing many more languages by default for Wikibase Lexeme and monolingual text statements. This will remove the need for a lot of requests for new language codes to be added. (phab:T341409)
Query Service UI: We’ve fixed a small issue in the Query Service UI that was introduced when updating CSS variables. Content of selected cells in the query result should be readable again. (phab:T350153)
EntitySchemas: We are continuing the work on the new data type for linking to EntitySchemas, working on overcoming architectural issues.

Bonjour,
je rencontre un problème de blocage d'IP lorsque j'utilise mon téléphone portable comme relai wifi via 4G. Cela arrive périodiquement, mais aujourd'hui j'ai eu la mauvaise surprise d'avoir le message « Your username or IP address has been blocked. The block was made by Thibaut120094. The reason given is Proxy ouvert. *Start of block: 12 mai 2023 à 20:54 *Expiration of block: 12 mai 2028 à 20:54 *Intended blockee: 147.161.185.0/24 You can contact .... ».
Peut etre que cette IP est distribuée aléatoirement par l'opérateur téléphonique et que vous avez eu des problèmes ? La ou je suis, il n'y a personne autour pour me pirater mon wifi, donc pas de soucis de sécurité. A moins que ce soit autre chose (proxy ouvert, je ne maîtrise pas). Serait il possible de débloquer cette IP pour mon user WP ? Merci. Cdt,
Le meilleur moyen d’obtenir un consensus sur l'admissibilité de l’article est de fournir des sources secondaires fiables et indépendantes. Si vous ne pouvez trouver de telles sources, c’est que l’article n’est probablement pas admissible.

Wikidata Working Hours provide hands-on Wikidata experience in a supportive space. We hope you will join us if you are interested in learning more about Wikidata, exploring LIS literature, and have been looking for a fun Wikidata project to contribute to. The seventh Wikidata Working Hour will cover the Author Disambiguator tool, which helps users assign authors to articles.During the session we will demonstrate how to use the tool on an author who was created during a previous working hour, and another who doesn't exist in Wikidata yet. After the demonstration, participants are encouraged to try the tool themselves during the rest of the working hour. This session will build on the work done in previous Working Hours by connecting authors to the articles they have written. This session will be recorded and the recording shared on the event page

The Research team at WMF is running a second labeling campaign to evaluate the Revert Risk model for Wikidata. This is part of ongoing work on creating a new generation of Machine Learning models to support patrolling work on Wikimedia projects. Please help by going to this link, and labeling each revision in one of these three categories: Keep, Not Sure, Revert. Notice that "Not Sure" should be used in all cases where the Keep or Revert labels are not clear to you.

. Je vous contacte puisque j'ai pu voir sur le Projet:Japon que vous étiez au point sur les questions de transcription du japonais. Je compte travailler sur les as de l'aviation de l'aéronavale japonaise pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. J'ai pas mal de sources à ce sujet, mais toutes sont en anglais et ne présentent jamais les noms des pilotes dans leur écriture en kanji. Je pourrais en retrouver un certain nombre par divers moyens mais pas l'intégralité. Est-il possible de retrouver l'écriture originale du nom en kanji à partir de la version transcrite ? Connaissant un peu les particularités de l'écriture des noms japonais, j'en doute, mais je préfère demander à plus connaisseur que moi. Merci d'avance, Othrod (discuter) 23 juin 2023 à 11:17 (CEST)
