Translation request

I see you're a native Chinese speaker; think you'd be interested in translating Sparkle (Honkai: Star Rail) into Chinese? I just wrote it today and she's definitely notable both on enwiki and zhwiki. Gommeh ^{(talk! sign!)} 19:29, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

Cool! Great article you’ve written 👍

I’ll translate it this week. SuperGrey (talk) 19:58, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

Done.
Btw, you may be interested in translating these added information from the Japanese VA interviews: zh:Special:Diff/92049453. SuperGrey (talk) 12:46, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

Done! Thanks, I tried to find interviews but was unable to due to limited knowledge of Japanese. Gommeh ^{(talk! sign!)} 13:14, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

Here I have one new article written: zh:昔漣 (Cyrene). You might want to translate it to English.

SuperGrey (talk) 04:07, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

Sure, I'll get to it sometime this week. Gommeh ^{(talk! sign!)} 04:25, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

By the way, I added some additional information to zh:温迪 (原神) that you might also want to add to Venti (Genshin Impact), regarding Luna III buff & commentaries, voice actor interviews & trivia. See zh:Special:Diff/92085544/92086197. SuperGrey (talk) 11:03, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

Translation has been done, see Cyrene (Honkai: Star Rail). I'll consider adding the Venti stuff later. Gommeh ^{(talk! sign!)} 21:53, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

By the way, to let the Weixin sources display as generally/marginally reliable, you need to follow the exact same citation format as me. See meta:Cite Unseen/sources/zhVGS, those sources need “work”/“website” parameter to be using the exact same words (竞核/游戏茶馆), while “Weixin” should be in “via” parameter. A few reliable sources nowadays exclusively publish their articles on Weixin, so this is the compromise to mark them reliable. SuperGrey (talk) 23:09, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

If you wish those publication names to be translated, you can edit the said Cite Unseen list to append such rules with your proposed translated names instead. SuperGrey (talk) 23:12, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

Thanks, I will keep that in mind. Gommeh ^{(talk! sign!)} 23:13, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

Question: my Chinese is rudimentary at best, and it's a little difficult for me to search the Meta page you linked. What do the brackets mean? Are those alternative titles? Also, you said there are reliable sources that only publish their articles on Weixin now. Can you think of any ones in particular so I know which ones to follow (with a link, if possible)? And, do you know if it's possible to access it on the web from a US-based account? That may help with my sourcing. Gommeh ^{(talk! sign!)} 18:53, 30 March 2026 (UTC)

Those brackets are Chinese character variants. The Weixin sources are all listed with url=mp.weixin.qq.com, but if you want one most reliable example, then it would be 遊戲葡萄 (listed as [遊游][戲戏]葡萄), which originally had a website (youxiputao.com) but now the site ceases running and is exclusively published on Weixin. SuperGrey (talk) 22:32, 30 March 2026 (UTC)

Btw, with those brackets interfering with word-based search, I would recommend you search by individual characters and read by glyph. For example, when you want to search 遊戲葡萄, search by any individual character, e.g., search 萄. SuperGrey (talk) 22:39, 30 March 2026 (UTC)

The Weixin article links are accessable in the US right? I am located in California, and I can access them.
If by accessing, you meant accessing the article list / account page, you need to download the WeChat app and register an account (think of it like Facebook). Then you can search / subscribe / view article list normally, behind the login wall. SuperGrey (talk) 22:46, 30 March 2026 (UTC)

Ah okay. Now my issue is, it's much easier for me to search for sources using Chrome's web translation tool, since I could tell what the source's title was in English without having to actually read it. This helped me filter out a lot of the sources that weren't going to be useful to me... to be able to do this on WeChat, I would need access to WeChat for Web, which is blocked for me. I just created my account a few days ago, any idea how I could get this or do I just have to manually search through everything? Gommeh ^{(talk! sign!)} 00:39, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

Wikimedia Foundation Bulletin 2026 Issue 6

Here is a quick overview of highlights from the Wikimedia Foundation since our last issue on March 13. Please help translate.

Highlights

Supporting the mobile experience: The Foundation is starting conversations with communities to explore how editing should work on the Wikipedia mobile apps. The goal is to understand how to better support both new and experienced editors, and how the app can guide users to the right editing tools. Your input is welcome. Join the discussion!
Wikimania 2026: Registration for Wikimania 2026 is opening soon from the end of March to May 1. Like other Wikimedia events this year, we are introducing a "request for invitation" process, with trust and safety checks conducted prior to confirming in-person attendance. Our priority is to create a safe environment for connection, collaboration, and shared learning.
Around the Puzzle Globe in the CEE region: On March 23 almost 60 Wikimedians took part in the CEE-Catch up- a meeting for Wikimedians from Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia. As a part of continuous conversations we have with the communities around the Foundation's annual plan, participants discussed the global trends related to Readers and Contributors in their regional context. The meeting was also an opportunity to connect with the new Foundation CEO, Bernadette Meehan, who is meeting communities around the puzzle globe to listen, learn and engage with the communities.

Annual Goals Progress on Infrastructure

Crawlers: The Foundation is now detecting and blocking billions of bot requests that don’t follow our robot policy, such as aggressive scrapers, to make sure our resources go towards serving human readers. In the coming months we’ll be working on better detection of rapidly changing bot behavior and better API infrastructure.
Moderator tools for newer editors: Wikipedia editors in Indonesian, Thai, Turkish, and Simple English now have access to an early version of Special:PersonalDashboard. It introduces newer editors to patrolling workflows, making it easier for them to move from making edits to participating in more advanced moderation work on their project.
Account creation on mobile: Mobile editors at several wikis are now presented with a simplified logged-out warning message, which encourages them to create an account or log in. This test is part of our ongoing effort to enhance the account creation experience on mobile and increase participation.
Verification email redesign: The verification email sent to new accounts that add an email address during signup has been redesigned. When tested on English Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, and Wikidata, the same-week email verification rate increased from 41.6% to 45.9%.
Retaining notification history: Wikimedia site users can export their notifications older than 5 years using a new Toolforge tool. This will ensure that users retain important notifications and avoid losing them based on the planned change to delete notifications older than 5 years, as previously announced.
Tech News: Latest highlights from Tech News weeks 12 and 13 include the update that Wikimedia site users can now log in without a password using passkeys as a secure method supported by fingerprint, facial recognition, or PIN. See also the 64 community submitted tasks that were resolved over the last two weeks.
Experiments: Check out the list of experiments in Product and Technology to see all upcoming, live, in-analysis, and completed experiments. One new experiment that just went live is the "Improve the logged-out warning message on mobile web," which aims to reduce the sense of friction or alarm when users encounter the logged-out warning upon editing.

Wikimedia Foundation Bulletin 2026 Issue 7

Here is a quick overview of highlights from the Wikimedia Foundation since our last issue on March 28. Please help translate.

Highlights

Community Wishlist update: This monthly update covers how 44 wishes were fulfilled, 17 are in progress, and 15 more will start work soon. It includes completion of work on Watchlist labels, which allow users to add labels to items in their watchlist to help with managing and filtering; fixing a bug with preview page feature; indexing of Commons on Google & DuckDuckGo search; and a wish simplifying the insertion of maths formulas in articles. You can submit, vote on, and subscribe to wishes here.
Goal setting for edit-a-thons: The CampaignEvents extension now includes a new group goal-setting feature, enabling organizers to set and track event goals such as the number of articles created and participating contributors in real time. This feature is now available on all Wikimedia wikis. Join the Connection Learning Session on April 14 at 16:00 UTC to learn more about this feature and new ways to promote events and campaigns to editors.
Collaboration with the United Nations: Learn how the Foundation engages with the United Nations to secure our collective voice and protect free knowledge.

Navigating articles on mobile: The Foundation is launching an experiment to test how to make it easier and more intuitive for readers to navigate through articles on mobile. To do this, we want to test Mobile Page Previews. This experiment will go live the week of April 20 and will run for four weeks.
Editing tools for new editors: Tone Check was deployed on French, Japanese, and Portuguese Wikipedia as a default-on feature for editors who have published 100 or fewer edits locally. When promotional or subjective language is added, users are prompted to consider "neutralizing" the tone of the edit.
Managing watchlist labels: The new watchlist labels feature is now available via VisualEditor, the source editor, and the "watchstar" (or watch link, for skins that don’t have a star icon). Previously it was only possible to assign labels via EditWatchlist.
Latest experiments: See all upcoming, live, in-analysis, and completed experiments in Product & Technology. A new experiment that just went live is one which aims to establish a baseline retention rate for logged-in readers.
Latest Wikifunctions: Check out the partial list of the 102 new functions created last week – likely the first week we have exceeded 100.
Tech News: The latest highlights from Tech News weeks 14 and 15 include an ongoing A/B test running on 10 Wikipedias to evaluate a clearer, more user-friendly message that promotes account creation on wikis. See also the 68 community submitted tasks that were resolved over the last two weeks.
Community discussions on Semantic Search: The Wikimedia Foundation, in collaboration with the CEE Hub, hosted a discussion session on Semantic Search for members of the CEE Youth Group.

Don't Blink!: This month's highlights from the Global Advocacy team include how the Wikimedia Foundation co-presented alongside the Internet Archive at the State of the Net conference.
Digital rights and inclusion: Take a look at the sessions that Wikimedians and allied partners will lead during Digital Rights and Inclusion Forum (DRIF) 2026.
Manuscript preservation: The Wikimedia Foundation supported volunteer-lead workshops to write Balinese Wikipedia articles about palm-leaf manuscripts (lontar) from the Leiden University Library collection.
Youth content creators: Wikimedia Indonesia, together with the Wikimedia Foundation, delivered an introductory session on Wikipedia for young content creators representing all 11 ASEAN member states.
Legal and Safety Contacts: The Wikimedia Foundation has created a single "Legal and Safety Contacts" page, to be linked in the footer of each wiki page. This will ensure that everyone has access to accurate and up to date Legal contact information. Insertion of the new links on different wikis will be done in stages, based on assessment of legal risk and necessity.
Building shared principals for the internet as a public good: The Global Advocacy team published a blog with the Center for Studies on Freedom of Expression and Access to Information (CELE) and the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) summarizing a workshop that brought together digital rights advocates from Latin America to dream of a "digital utopia."
