Wikipedia translation of the week: 2017-37 (本周维基百科翻译:2017-37)
The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help to translation this article! Mining in Angola is an activity with great economic potential since the country has one of the largest and most diversified mining resources of Africa. Angola is the third largest producer of diamonds in Africa and has only explored 40% of the diamond-rich territory within the country, but has had difficulty in attracting foreign investment because of corruption, human rights violations, and diamond smuggling. Production rose by 30% in 2006 and Endiama, the national diamond company of Angola, expects production to increase by 8% in 2007 to 10,000,000 carats (2,000 kg) annually. The government is trying to attract foreign companies to the provinces of Bié, Malanje and Uíge. Angola has also historically been a major producer of iron ore.

RfC regarding "Interlinking of accounts involved with paid editing to decrease impersonation"
There is currently a RfC open on Meta regarding "requiring those involved with paid editing on Wikipedia to link on their user page to all other active accounts through which they advertise paid Wikipedia editing business."
Note this is to apply to Wikipedia and not necessarily other sister projects, this is only to apply to websites where people are specifically advertising that they will edit Wikipedia for pay and not any other personal, professional, or social media accounts a person may have.
Please comment on meta. Thanks. Send on behalf of User:Doc James.
Wikipedia translation of the week: 2017-38 (本周维基百科翻译:2017-38)
The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help to translation this article! The Pioneer Cabin Tree, also known as The Tunnel Tree, was a giant sequoia in Calaveras Big Trees State Park, California. It was considered one of the U.S.'s most famous trees, and drew thousands of visitors annually. It was estimated to have been more than 1,000 years old, and measured 33 feet (10 m) in diameter; its exact age and height were not known. The tree was topped before 1859. It fell and shattered during a storm on January 8, 2017 (Please update the interwiki links on Wikidata of your language version of the article after each week's translation is finished so that all languages are linked to each other.)

Discussion on synced reading lists
Discussion on synced reading lists
Hello,
To create Reading Lists, app users will register an account and marked pages will be tied to that account. Reading List account preferences sync between devices. You can read the same pages on different mobile platforms (tablets, phones). This is the first time we are syncing preference data between devices in such a way. We want to hear and address concerns about privacy and data security. We also want to explain why the current watchlist system is not being adapted for this purpose.
Background(背景)
In 2016 the Android team replaced the simple Saved Pages feature with Reading Lists. Reading Lists allow users to bookmark pages into folders and for reading offline. The intent of this feature was to allow "syncing" of these lists for users with many devices. Due to overlap with the Gather feature and related community concerns, this part was put on hold.
The Android team has identified this lack of synching as a major area of complaint from users. They expect lists to sync. The iOS team has held off implementing Reading Lists, as syncing was seen as a "must have" for this feature. A recent technical RfC has allowed these user stories and needs to be unblocked. Initially for Android, then iOS, and with web to potentially follow.
Reading lists are private, stored as part of a user's account, not as a public wiki page. There is no sharing or publishing ability for reading lists. No planned work to make these public. The target audience are people that read Wikipedia and want to bookmark and organize that content in the app. There is a potential for the feature to be available on the web in the future.
Why not watchlists
Watchlists offer similar functionality to Reading Lists. The Reading Infrastructure team evaluated watchlist infrastructure before exploring other options. In general, the needs of watchlists differ from Reading Lists in a few key ways:
- Reading lists focus on Reading articles, not the monitoring of changes.
- Watchlists are focused on monitoring changes of pages/revisions.
- The Watchlist infrastructure is key to our contributor community for monitoring content changes manually and through the use of automated tools (bots). Because of these needs, expanding the scope of Watchlists to reading purposes will only make the project harder to maintain and add more constraints.
- By keeping the projects separate it is easier to scale resources. We can serve these two different audiences and prioritize the work accordingly. Reading Lists are, by their nature, less critical to the health of Wikipedia/MediaWiki.
- Multi-project support. Reading Lists are by design cross-wiki/project. Watchlists are tied to specific wikis. While there have been many discussion for making them cross-wiki, resolution is not in the near term.
More information can be found on MediaWiki.org where feedback and ideas are welcome.
Thank you
乌克兰语维基百科又再翻生物条目?
请留意维基百科:统计:最近乌克兰语的维基百科一星期增长经常过千甚至两千条。究竟是不是又在翻生物条目了?--Шәτіт🐷0 2017年9月17日 (日) 03:05 (UTC)
- 是。 --砜中嘌呤的白磷萃取 打谱 2017年9月17日 (日) 03:11 (UTC)
- 貌似刷的都是人类基因条目,这个总共就2万多,乌克兰语和中文差距有二十来万,不担心
- 话说中文维基有希望在2017年底前条目数量超过葡萄牙语吗?根据维基百科:统计,平均一个月中文维基可以追上3000条,现在还差一万五,还剩三个月多-- --Htmlzycq(留言) 2017年9月17日 (日) 09:14 (UTC)
- 我看了一下其实这批质量都不错,能有合适的数据库么?我也想直接刷出来。Walter Grassroot(留言) 2017年9月17日 (日) 11:56 (UTC)
- @Walter Grassroot:是挺不错的,我猜测是PBB_Summary里复制自NCBI gene数据库的那段话都有乌克兰语的翻译了,所以这个人就都搬维基来了,中文貌似没有人翻吧--Htmlzycq(留言) 2017年9月17日 (日) 19:27 (UTC)
- 要么刷地铁站数据?--Шәτіт🐷0 2017年9月18日 (一) 07:31 (UTC)
- @Htmlzycq:,看了一遍不知道怎么下手,但是觉得材料不错,如果未来有中文的对应翻译,我也会开动机器人来做。Walter Grassroot(留言) 2017年9月18日 (一) 13:04 (UTC)
- 他们今天9:00 UTC又开始刷条目了。我已问机器人主人借数据库。--Шәτіт🐷0 2017年9月19日 (二) 08:55 (UTC)
- Sergento刚回复了:大家可以看看 (在Database of Sergobot一段)。--Шәτіт🐷0 2017年9月19日 (二) 09:03 (UTC)
- 谢谢啦,不太会制作这个data,望洋兴叹了:)Walter Grassroot(留言) 2017年9月19日 (二) 11:37 (UTC)
- 由Q18027367至Q18074322都是基因项目。你可以做一个for loop把所有数据都翻一次。然后直接到Uniprot DB搜寻,再找那个基因名字,应该就有资料。--Шәτіт🐷0 2017年9月19日 (二) 14:43 (UTC)
- 其实对我来说好做的方法是直接提取Sergento的关键词,然后在一些乌克兰语的内容转化成中文就可以,其他数据直接AWB平移过来。但对我而言是主要的生物词汇都看不懂(就算是翻译成中国),如果能把其中几个简单翻译一下,我大概就理解了,比如Q18027367谢谢。Walter Grassroot(留言) 2017年9月20日 (三) 00:31 (UTC)
- 就是不懂生物学?--Шәτіт🐷0 2017年9月20日 (三) 06:29 (UTC)
- 其实这堆都是人类基因编码蛋白,就以不同字母和数字串表示。--Шәτіт🐷0 2017年9月20日 (三) 09:26 (UTC)
- 我没有机器人账号,所以只好靠你们了。我最多可以依照你们需要的语言写好一段script。 (要知道我懂什么语言请到用户页看看用户框。)--Шәτіт🐷0 2017年9月20日 (三) 09:23 (UTC)
