File:NO 1514 Sande.svg / File:NO 1511 Vanylven.svg[edit]

Hei, kan du flytte kommunegrensen mellom Sande og Vanylven? Fastlandsdelen til Sande ble i år 2000 overført til Vanylven. --Eivindgh (talk) 07:09, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard[edit]

Hi, on the OTRS memberlist I noticed you are active on commons and have acces to info-no. A question came in on the OTRS/Noticeboard [1]. Concerning this question; in the last day two email where received ticket:2011022010007832 and ticket:2011022010004362. Part of one email is in Norwegian. Could you please have a look. Thank you very much. Kind regards, Taketa (talk) 10:47, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It says I don't have access to the first one (do you know which queue it is?); the second one checks out, so everything is in order. Jon Harald Søby (talk) 20:06, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Good to hear the second one checks out. The first one is at permissions-commons. Maybe you can acces it through [2]? -- Taketa (talk) 06:18, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Still doesn't work... If you move it to info-no it should work though. Jon Harald Søby (talk) 08:09, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Another volunteer has answered the ticket. No further action needed. Thank you for your effort, kind regards, Taketa (talk) 12:29, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, good. No problem. :-) Jon Harald Søby (talk) 13:30, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Valued Image Promotion[edit]

★ Your nomination has been reviewed and promoted ★
Congratulations! The image you nominated was reviewed and has now been promoted as a valued image. It is considered to be the most valued image on Commons within the scope:
The Capitol, Republic of Palau (exterior).
If you would like to nominate another image, please do so at Valued images candidates.

review

Comment Melekeok is a name of a state and a name of a village of the same name in the Republic of Palau. The image shows the parliament building of the republic which is located in Ngerulmud. So I think the scope here should be: The Republic of Palau Capitol (exterior) or The Capitol House of Palau (exterior) or something like that. The scope should link this category. --MrPanyGoff 15:19, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, you are of course right. Fixed. Jon Harald Søby (talk) 20:42, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - I didn't mean you to use the same name as the linked category. This scope is somehow still too general. It better be the specific name of the represented building as my suggestions above, if you like them of course. The Capitol, Palau (exterior) is another configuration. BTW, what do you think about the cropped version: . --MrPanyGoff 16:02, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    - In my opinion, not only the country is badly represented in "Commons", but his official building too... I think that this House of Parliament is fine enough to deserve an own category. Furthermore, I agree with MrPanyGoff about a good scope, his suggestion sounds good to me. After that, let them compete...--Jebulon (talk) 23:33, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Please add Geotag --Rastaman3000 (talk) - Visit my new user-page! 18:57, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Scope changed from Government buildings in Palau to The Capitol, Republic of Palau (exterior) --MrPanyGoff 13:54, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please notify previous voters of this change. Remember: "A support vote that was made before a change of scope is not counted unless it is reconfirmed afterwards; an oppose vote is counted unless it is changed or withdrawn".

- Thank you, I forgot about this. Jon Harald Søby (talk) 22:31, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Geotag added --MrPanyGoff 13:54, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting intermediate uploads of a file[edit]

Hello, Jon Harald Søby.

I was wondering if it's ok to do on this file what you've done with this. Can all versions of my file, but the current one, be deleted? I'm asking this because i'm afraid that so many miniatures may be putting unnecessary strain on the servers. That file matters for nothing. That's only a flag of mine. I'm waiting your feedback. --Bluedenim (talk) 18:15, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

no localization[edit]

thanks for the sitenotice localization. Can you also do the same for the script the notice relates to? You can edit User:Rd232/myuploads.js directly or leave a note at User talk:Rd232/myuploads.js. cheers, Rd232 (talk) 12:56, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Beskyttelsen på File:Flag of Norway.svg[edit]

Haninge kommun[edit]

Hej, kan du byta ut Haninge kommuns kommunvapen mot det rätta?

Your account will be renamed[edit]

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Jon Harald Søby. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Jon Harald Søby~commonswiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

Re: Rate limits[edit]

Moving 2 files in 4 minutes is certainly not supposed to hit the rate limit, which is 8 per minute. If you need more than that, maybe you could suggest adding the "noratelimit" permission to the file mover group. Nemo 09:01, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Nemo bis: Yeah, what's weird is that I didn't get the rate limit for the first file move (with the Move&Replace gadget), but I got it for the second one. For the second one, it worked after 180 seconds. However, while trying to move Category:Paul Dalhø to Category:Paul Dahlø, I'm still getting it. Before this reply now I haven't made any edits in 22 minutes. Before I tried to move that category the first time I hadn't moved anything in ~21 hours.

Nyhetsbrev fra Wikimedia Norge[edit]

Hello, Wikimedia Norge members and other contributors, here is our newsletter for November 2019.

During one week of October, Giellavahkku, the UN International Year of Indigenous Languages was celebrated all over the country. Wikimedia Norge was recently granted money from the Sámi Parliament's language funds to create an education program in cooperation with the Sámi University of Appliec Sciences and the University of Tromsø for students to contribute to the Wikipedia in Northern Sámi, or to contribute Sámi content to other Wikimedia projects in general. We have also been granted money from Fritt Ord to put Sámi place names in Wikidata, in cooperation with the Norwegian Mapping Authority. You can read more about this work on our blog.

The jury has finished its task for this year's Wiki Loves Monuments, and the 10 winning photos that go on to the international part of the contest have been announced on the winners page on Commons. Congratulations to all the winners, and thanks a lot to all contestants and jurors!

Here's an overview of Wikimedia Norge events happening in the next few months:

Bodil Biørn and women's invisibility in history: On the 11^th of November, Wikimedia Norge and the National Archives of Norway invites you to an event at the National Archive from 17:00 till 19:00. History has often been written by and for men. This is reflected in archives, history books, and on Wikipedia. Why is it important to make source material showing women's perspective on history available? The event is free and open to all. Welcome!

Meet-up at Litteraturhuset: On the 28^th of November, Wikimedia Norge invites you to a meet-up at Litteraturhuset in Oslo from 18:00 till 19:00. Ruth Vatvedt Fjell will be presenting.; Fjell, who is quite interested in curse words, is a professor of lexicography and cares about how language can maintain unbalanced gender patterns. Wikipedia is a huge knowledge base where anyone can contribute. Therefore it's right to ask what the type of language we use means for how knowledge is disseminated?; The event is free and open to all. Welcome! Tables in the bar have been reserved from 19:00 for those who wish to continue the discussion there.

Deadline for applying for wikigrants: The 20^th of November is the deadline for applying for wikigrants. You can apply for getting expenses related to contributing to Wikimedia projects covered.

Dissemination of Retriever accesses: Also on the 20^th of November, 6 accesses to Retriever will be disseminated to active Wikipedia contributors who could use this tool to write articles.

Important message for file movers[edit]

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
To perform file name swaps.
When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Nyhetsbrev nr. 19 fra Wikimedia Norge[edit]

Happy new year, and congratulations with 20 years of knowledge dugnad!

The English Wikipedia was launched on the 15th of January, 2001. The theme of the 20-year celebration is celebrating the people behind Wikipedia – all of you who have contributed in some way to make us able to celebrate 20 years of free knowledge. Due to the pandemic, we can't celebrate in-person at the moment, but we hope to be able to organize a celebration within the year.

Submit a greeting: We have made a congratulatory page where anyone can send their regards to Wikipedia. We hope it will be a nice page that shows why Wikipedia is as important as ever. Submit your greeting now!

Wiki meet-up: The next wiki meet-up will be on January 27th. Karl Wettin from Wikimedia Sverige will participate, giving a presentation of Wikispeech… This is an exciting open-source project about crowdsourced voice synthesis. It also has applications well beyond the Wikimedia projects. Any suggestions for future meet-up topics are very welcome at the bottom of the meet-up page!

Events to look forward to in 2021

Wikimedia Norge's general assembly will be held on the 6th of March. It will be held entirely online this year, just like last year. More information coming soon.
We are planning a digital administrator meet-up for all administrators in the Wikipedias in Norwegian Bokmål and Nynorsk, probably in March. If you are interested in helping organize this, please contact Jon Harald.
Arctic Art+Feminism: We will organize four editathons during 2021, where the theme is female artists and indigenous art. More information coming soon.
WikiGap: If the pandemic allows, there will be a WikiGap event at the Swedish Embassy in Oslo. We hope to see you there! This year's theme is female activists from South America.
Arctic Knot: In June, we will organize the Wikimedia language conference, Arctic Knot. This is a continuation of the Celtic Knot series of conferences. More information coming soon!

New membership system: We are implementing a new membership system. What does this mean for you? Hopefully, as little as possible. For us, however, it means better follow-up of our members. Next week, we will send out a newsletter containing information about membership fees for 2021, among other things. They can be paid via Vipps or via AvtaleGiro. If you have already paid your dues for 2021, you can discard this.

Survey from the Wikimedia Foundation: The Wikimedia Foundation is asking for answers to this survey from Wikimedians around the world. The WMF has made a Norwegian translation of the survey. You can answer it anonymously without sharing an email address, but if you do, you shouldn't close the browser before you have completed the survey.

Nyhetsbrev nr. 20 fra Wikimedia Norge[edit]

Here are the latest news from Wikimedia Norge!

General assembly: This year's general assembly was held on March 6th, and the minutes are available here. Amongst other things, it was decided to give Wikimedia Norge an official name in Southern Sámi, Lule Sámi and Kven. That means that we now have 6 official names: Wikimedia Norge (Norwegian Bokmål), Wikimedia Noreg (Norwegian Nynorsk), Wikimedia Norga (Northern Sámi), Wikimedia Vuodna (Lule Sámi), Wikimedia Nöörje (Southern Sámi) and Wikimedia Norja (Kven).

New board

Hogne Neteland exited the board after many years of service, we would like to thank him for his efforts! Sigrun Espe continues as board chair. The board has two new board members:

Fredrik Ljone, Bergen. Board member, elected for the 2021–2023 term. Ljone is dedicated to sharing knowledge, open data and rule of law. He has taken the initiative to make the law more accessible for everyone through jusleksikon.no and rettspraksis.no.
Stian Amadeus Antonsen, Oslo. Deputy board member, elected for the 2021–2022 term. Antonsen has a lot of experience from different civil society organizations, and works as a political advisor in the Norwegian Students' and Academics' International Assistance Fund (SAIH). He is dedicated to diversity and inclusion, and wants everyone to be able to share in the production and dissemination of knowledge.

Welcome to them both!

Arctic Knot: On June 24–25, Wikimedia Norge will organize the digital Arctic Knot Wikimedia Language Conference.; Wikipedia is a cornerstone of the digital age, but the knowledge you'll find isn't evenly distributed across languages. The Wikimedia movement is about to implement its 2030 strategy, while UNESCO is working on the International Decade of Indigenous Languages (IDIL), which starts in 2022. IDIL shows the potential that technology has in supporting and maintaining indigenous languages. These milestones form a frame for the conference, where we will discuss linguistic diversity in the Wikimedia projects, and how to build good linguistic environments for the users of indigenous and underrepresented language communities.; Arctic Knot is a conference for all Wikipedians and Wikimedians who are interested in indigenous languages, and also for organizations and institutions working in this field. This year's special focus will be on the Sámi languages. If you have any questions, please get in touch with Jon Harald Søby at [email protected].

Administrator meetup: On Saturday, March 20, we held a administrator meetup for the Norwegian-language Wikimedia projects. There were 10 participants, of which one is a Wiktionary administrator, and the rest are administrators on the Norwegian Bokmål Wikipedia. The meetup was initiated by Wikimedia Norge on request from the community.; During the meetup there was a walkthrough of "hidden" or little-known administrator tools, like mass deletion, new blocking options and patrolling tools. There was also broad agreement that there is a need to update and centralize rules and guidelines on-wiki.

Wikimedia Enterprise: With its new project Wikimedia Enterprise, the Wikimedia Foundation is working on a way to cooperate with commercial actors like Google and Amazon. A lot of commercial actors are already using Wikimedia content, but without any formal agreements or financial compensation. Wikimedia Enterprise is meant to be a service that will improve the user experience of Wikimedia outside of the Wikimedia platforms, and also be financially self-sustaining.; According to an article in Wired, the Wikimedia Foundation wants to make the effort of the volunteers more visible, and stimulate the tech giants to help contribute to the volunteer community.

Wikipedia 20 years: The Norwegian minister of education, Guri Melby, has sent a video message to all Wikipedians in connection with the 20th anniversary! Go have a look! Remember that you too can send a message!

Nyhetsbrev nr. 21 fra Wikimedia Norge[edit]

Hello, here are the latest news from Wikimedia Norge!

Arctic Knot: On June 24–25, the Arctic Knot Wikimedia Language Conference is finally under way! The conference is fully digital, and we hope you'll find the program interesting! There will be exciting talks and panel debates, and an opportunity to get to know projects like Abstract Wikipedia and Wikisource.; The full program is now available on Meta-Wiki, and you can read more about the conference on our blog.; Registration for the conference has opened, and participation is free of charge.; You can register all the way up until the conference starts, but if you wish to participate in the Unlocking the potential of digital language archives session, you need to register by June 20th in order to be able to use the Endangered Languages Archive (ELAR) as the session is happening.; The program is varied and exciting, and we think everyone will find something interesting in the program.; Du you wish to contribute to the conference as a volunteer? All participation is very welcome!; Maybe you'd like to help test the platform we'll be using beforehand? Or do you have any questions you think should be raised during the panel debate? Maybe you'd like to contribute with entertainment of some sort? Get in touch on [email protected]!

The monthly contest on Wikipedia: The subject of June's monthly contest will be artists. Edits to all articles on artists will yield points, but we hope many would like to write about Sámi and other indigenous artists!

Wikimania: This year's Wikimania will also be fully digital, enabling even more people to participate. The theme will be 20 years of Wikipedia, so it is a time to celebrate what the Wikimedia movement has achieved, and look back on the journey that led us here. You can now propose sessions for Wikimania. If you have an idea for a session, but are not sure about how to angle it, feel free to get in touch with us. We can help with brainstorming and whatever else you need!

Wiki meet-ups: It's not long before we can hold in-person meet-ups again, and some plans are already under way. It would be great for more people to be able to join meet-ups. Wikimedia Norge can help financially if you wish to organize a meet-up where you live.; We will still be organizing meet-ups, workshops and admin meet-ups at (ir)regular intervals, either digitally or in-person. If you have any ideas for topics, feel free to get in touch with Jon Harald ([email protected])!

Nyhetsbrev nr. 22 fra Wikimedia Norge[edit]

Hello, here are the latest news from Wikimedia Norge!

Arctic Knot – a big success: The final thing we did before the summer holidays was to hold the Arctic Knot Conference. We spent most of 2021 preparing the conference, and the conference lasted for two days with a lot of participation. Most of the videos from the conference are available in this playlist on YouTube.

13–17 August: Wikimania; Wikimania starts tomorrow, and the deadline for registering is midnight UTC tonight. Wikimania lasts for 5 days, and the program is adapted to multiple timezones, so it will take place at various parts of the day. There are plenty of interesting submissions!; Wikimedia Norge is participating with a workshop. The workshop's goal is to further develop the idea of a Wikimedia hub for underrepresented language communities. Everyone is welcome to participate!

Next wiki meet-up: 25 August; The first meet-up of the fall will be about Abstract Wikipedia. We will watch Denny Vrandečić's presentation from Arctic Knot together, and discuss afterwards. The meet-up will take place on Google Meet, and start at 17.00 CEST. Simply explained, Abstract Wikipedia is about writing articles as functions in order to make them language-independent.

International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples: 9 August marks the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples, and we wrote a blog post based on some of the presentations from the Arctic Knot Conference.

Wikipedia 20 years: Due to Wikipedia's 20 year anniversary, we have received video greetings from government ministers and the President of the Sámi Parliament. You can watch the videos here. The greetings are for everyone who has contributed to Wikipedia during its 20 years of existence – thank you very much for your efforts!; Wikipedia in Norwegian turns 20 in November. This will be celebrated at the November meet-up; further information will come later.

Nyhetsbrev nr. 23 fra Wikimedia Norge[edit]

Hello, here are the latest news from Wikimedia Norge!

Wikipedia in Norwegian Bokmål is turning 20!: The Norwegian Bokmål Wikipedia turns 20 on November 26, and this will be celebrated during the December 1 wiki meet-up. That will be a virtual meet-up with a quiz and other fun. Do you wish to receive a 20th anniversary T-shirt? Send us your address and size (S–XL) to [email protected]!; Here's more information about the meet-up.

Giellavahkku and Sámi work: Maybe you've been wondering why there's been so much Sámi stuff in social media lately? The reason is the Sámi language week, Giellavahkku, which aims to make the Sámi languages more visible. The Sámi languages, culture and history are an important part of the diversity of knowledge. We have summarized the work we're doing with regards to Sámi languages in this blog post.; The Lapp Codicil was repatriated to the Sámi Archives this month, after a long process. The Lapp Codicil is still the base of the laws for borders in the North of Scandinavia. It will soon also be available on Wikimedia Commons.

Queer culture year 2022: Througout 2022, the queer culture year (Skeivt kulturår) will be marked in Norway. In preparation for this, we have uploaded 139 interviews by the Queer Archive to Wikimedia Commons. We also have several other projects planned for next year.; – The fact that queer experiences, history and culture aren't reflected online is a blank spot in our common history, says Heide Rohde Rafto, acting academic director of the Queer Archive of Norway. She adds that queer history is not only the history of LGBT+ people, but of the whole of society.; By engaging in the queer cultural year, we are hoping to fill in these blank spots. And we're doing this from a diversity point of view – it's not all about gender and sexuality, but also about individuality and the people who have made an effort to effect change.

Language Diversity Hub: Diversity of knowledge shouldn't just be limited to Norway. Through international cooperations, we are hoping to create a gathering point for those who are working on indigenous and underrepresented languages. In this project we are joined by several participants of the Arctic Knot Conference this summer. You can read more about this work on this page.

Retriever: It will soon be time to disperse access tokens for Retriever again. You can sign up from November 15. Reminders will be posted on Torget and Samfunnshuset when the sign-up opens.; Wikimedia Sverige have a separate deal with the Swedish Retriever. They have many access tokens available, and can share them with Norwegian volunteers as well. Only Swedish media is available through their deal. Sign up on this list on the Swedish Wikipedia if you're interested in getting access to the Swedish Retriever.

Wikigrants: Now that society has reopened, there are more opportunities to go out and about! There are several activities you can apply for a wikigrant for. All Wikimedia contributors can apply for a grant of up to 8,000 NOK. The grant must be used for activities that support one or more Wikimedia projects, and the application deadline is November 20.
