Wikipedia translation of the week: 2024-32
Please be bold and help translate this article!

Suffrage drama (also known as suffrage plays or suffrage theatre) is a form of dramatic literature that emerged during the British women's suffrage movement in the early twentieth century. Suffrage performances lasted approximately from 1907-1914. Many suffrage plays called for a predominant or all female cast. Suffrage plays served to reveal issues behind the suffrage movement.

Technische Neuigkeiten: 2024-32
Neueste Technik-Nachrichten der Wikimedia-Community. Bitte informiere andere Nutzer über diese Entwicklungen. Nicht alle Änderungen werden dich betreffen.
Neuigkeiten zu Funktionen
Diese Woche werden zwei neue Parserfunktionen verfügbar sein:
{{#dir}}
und{{#bcp47}}
. Diese reduzieren die Erfordernis vonTemplate:Dir
undTemplate:BCP47
auf Commons und ermöglichen es uns, 100 Millionen Zeilen aus der "Links auf diese Seite"-Datenbank zu entfernen. Autoren in allen Wikis, die diese Vorlagen verwenden, können helfen, indem sie die Vorlagen durch diese neuen Funktionen ersetzen. Die Vorlagen auf Commons werden während des Hackathons bei der Wikimania aktualisiert. [1][2]- Communities können die Aktivierung des Visual Editors für ganze Namensräume beantragen, in denen gelegentlich Diskussionen stattfinden (z. B. die Namensräume Wikipedia: oder Wikisource:), wenn sie die bekannten Einschränkungen verstehen. Für Diskussionen können Benutzer in diesen Namensräumen bereits die Diskussionswerkzeuge verwenden.
- Die Tracking-Kategorie "Seite mit Timeline" wurde im TranslateWiki in "Seite, die die Erweiterung EasyTimeline verwendet" umbenannt. Wikis, die die Kategorie lokal erstellt haben, sollten ihre lokale Erstellung entsprechend umbenennen.
Projektneuigkeiten
- Autoren, die bei der Organisation von Wiki-Projekten und ähnlichen On-Wiki-Kooperationen helfen, sind eingeladen, Ideen und Beispiele erfolgreicher Zusammenarbeit mit den Teams Kampagnen und Programme zu teilen. Du kannst eine kurze Umfrage ausfüllen oder deine Gedanken auf der Diskussionsseite mitteilen. Die Teams suchen insbesondere nach Details zu erfolgreichen Zusammenarbeiten in nicht-englischen Wikis.
Der neue Parser wird in den nächsten Monaten in Wikivoyage-Wikis eingeführt. Englischsprachiges Wikivoyage und Hebräisches Wikivoyage wurden letzte Woche auf Parsoid umgestellt. Siehe Vereinigung von Parsoid und Parser für weitere Informationen.

Grundsätzlich sollten Archivlinks nur gesetzt werden, wenn eine Website nicht mehr aufrufbar ist. Jedoch kann man archive.today oder ähnliche Archivdienste dazu nutzen, um Online-Artikel von Nachrichtendienste anzusehen, die hinter einer Paywall liegen. Dies funktioniert nicht mit allen Archivdiensten bzw. Nachrichtenportalen. Zum Beispiel ist dieser Artikel von Zeit Online nicht kostenlos verfügbar, kann jedoch über dieses Archiv vollständig aufgerufen werden.
Der US-amerikanische Pizzalieferant Domino’s hatte lange Zeit ein Marketingversprechen, das das Unternehmen weltweit bekannt gemacht hat: eine garantierte Lieferung in unter 30 Minuten. Als 1985 ein junger Pizzabote in der Nähe von Pittsburgh eine Pizza übergeben bekam, hatte er ein Problem: 23 Minuten waren schon vergangen! Als er eilig mit seinem Auto aus der Einfahrt fuhr, kollidierte er mit dem Auto des Ehepaars Kranack, die beiden wurden leicht verletzt. Doch anstatt den Verletzten zu helfen, übergab er die Pizza an seinen Manager, der sie mit den Worten „There’s still time“ an einen anderen Pizzaboten weitergab. Aufgrund dieses und mehrerer anderer Unfälle wurde die Garantie wenige Jahre später beendet.
Beim Wettbewerb zum Artikel des Quartals im Juni hat Ankermast mit diesem Artikel den ersten Platz belegt. Herzlichen Glückwunsch!
Der Transrapid 07 (kurz TR07) ist ein Magnetschwebebahn-Fahrzeug, das von ThyssenKrupp-Transrapid gebaut und auf der Transrapid-Versuchsanlage Emsland (TVE) erprobt wurde. Er stellt eine umfangreiche Weiterentwicklung seines Vorgängermodells Transrapid 06 dar und konnte 1991 als erster Zug der Transrapid-Modellreihe die technische Einsatzreife vorweisen. – Zum Artikel …

Das erstplatzierte Foto des Bilderwettbewerbs wurde von Ankermast aufgenommen und zeigt das Hochhaus The Shard aus der St Mary at Hill Street in der City of London.

Wikipedia translation of the week: 2024-34
Please be bold and help translate this article!
B1 is a medical-based Paralympic classification for blind sport. Athletes in this classification are totally or almost totally blind. It is used by a number of blind sports including blind tennis, para-alpine skiing, para-Nordic skiing, blind cricket, blind golf, five-a-side football, goalball and judo. Some other sports, including adaptive rowing, athletics and swimming, have equivalents to this class.
The B1 classification was first created by the IBSA in the 1970s, and has largely remained unchanged since despite an effort by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) to move towards a more functional and evidence-based classification system. Classification is often handled on the international level by the International Blind Sports Federation (IBSA) but it sometimes handled by national sport federations. There are exceptions for sports like athletics and cycling, where classification is handled by their own governing bodies.
Equipment utilized by competitors in this class may differ from sport to sport, and may include sighted guides, guide rails, beeping balls and clapsticks. There may be some modifications related to equipment and rules to specifically address needs of competitors in this class to allow them to compete in specific sports. Some sports specifically do not allow a guide, whereas cycling and skiing require one.
