Final proposed modifications to the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines and U4C Charter now posted

The proposed modifications to the Universal Code of Conduct Enforcement Guidelines and the U4C Charter are now on Meta-wiki for community notice in advance of the voting period. This final draft was developed from the previous two rounds of community review. Community members will be able to vote on these modifications starting on 17 April 2025. The vote will close on 1 May 2025, and results will be announced no later than 12 May 2025. The U4C election period, starting with a call for candidates, will open immediately following the announcement of the review results. More information will be posted on the wiki page for the election soon.

Please be advised that this process will require more messages to be sent here over the next two months.

The Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) is a global group dedicated to providing an equitable and consistent implementation of the UCoC. This annual review was planned and implemented by the U4C. For more information and the responsibilities of the U4C, you may review the U4C Charter.

Please share this message with members of your community so they can participate as well.

討論頁的外觀即將改變

您好

編輯團隊即將改變討論頁的外觀。我們將於4月2日當週部署這些變更。中文維基百科是最後一個還沒有部署這些變更的維基百科。您仍然可以在您的Beta版功能中測試此功能。從讀者到集體使用者，每個人都可以看到這個改變；喜歡舊樣子的使用者可以在偏好設定中選擇不使用這個功能。

內容

在2019年的跨維基討論中，所有經驗等級的志願者都表示，討論頁的呈現方式以及wikitext的使用，讓他們很難辨認出討論頁是討論場所。志願者也分享到，了解這些討論頁中發生的對話，以及辨識他們需要做什麼才能參與這些對話過於困難。

我們即將在中文維基百科部署的可用性改進，旨在幫助所有的貢獻者——無論他們的經驗水平如何——在維基媒體維基和其他地方更容易地溝通。這個新的部署是最近在討論頁上的改進的跟進，例如話題訂閱、討論頁固定連結、新增話題按鈕或空討論頁的預設呈現。

討論頁將加入四項改進。

改善標題外觀

我們改變了討論頁主標題的外觀，在「Talk:」之後加了一個空格，以及所有區段標題的外觀，現在使用Sans-serif字樣。目的是將它們與文章內容區分開來。

每個話題的標題總結了特定討論的整體活動：顯示參與人數、留言，以及最後一次留言的日期。按一下日期可進入話題的最新留言。

強調動作按鈕

回覆、訂閱和開始新話題的按鈕會以較粗的字體顯示，而不像一般的連結。強調這些連結的括號被移除，以免與內文連結混淆。

不久之後，這個回覆按鈕附近將提供新的選項，例如可以感謝使用者的留言。

在討論頁上開啟新話題的按鈕不容易找到。「新話題」按鈕在Vector 2022皮膚中得到了改進：黏貼標題中的藍色按鈕現在會顯示從哪裡開始會談。

改進的目錄

對於Vector 2022面板使用者，內容表顯示話題內的留言數，讓您更容易找到最熱門的討論話題。

頁面頂端的元資訊

在討論頁的頂端新增了一個包含元資訊的麵包屑導覽。最新新增的留言會高亮顯示，並註明日期以及張貼的話題。

我們測試了這些改進

變更設計可能會讓某些使用者感到困惑。為了瞭解桌面版討論頁的設計變更是否會對人們使用討論頁的經驗造成負面影響，「編輯」團隊進行了兩項分析，透過討論頁編輯的回復率來檢查使用者的參與程度，並檢查改進可能造成的負面影響。

下一步

我們計劃在4月2日部署這項變更。

如果您有任何問題，請在回覆本訊息時提出。

「在Talk后加一个空格」可能不适用于中文维基百科。本站AfD页面的相关样式可能需要修改？ ——魔琴［留言 贡献 PJ:小學 PJ:兩岸］ 2025年3月27日 (四) 06:16 (UTC)

包含空格會造成任何理解上的問題嗎？我們在其他語言中也是這樣做，以強化人們正確閱讀討論頁面的事實，而且並未造成任何理解上的問題。--Trizek (WMF)（留言） 2025年3月27日 (四) 10:00 (UTC)

@魔琴：見前後對比的截圖（更改前、更改後），視覺上實際影響並不大。不知能否詳細說明為何「可能不適用於中文維基百科」和「相關樣式可能需要修改」？謝謝。--SCP-0000（留言） 2025年3月30日 (日) 07:42 (UTC)

啊，我想成全角（全宽、全形）符号了，半角符号后加空格确实没问题。 ——魔琴［留言 贡献 PJ:小學 PJ:兩岸］ 2025年3月30日 (日) 10:07 (UTC)

似乎还有一个问题，简体font-family一般将全角标点符号靠左靠下设计，':'（U+003A）加一个空格可能会被不熟悉技术的读者或编者误以为是'：'（U+FF1A）而造成链接错误思考... ——魔琴［留言 贡献 PJ:小學 PJ:兩岸］ 2025年3月30日 (日) 10:11 (UTC)

混淆全形和半形標點符號的情況不是第一次發生了（笑）。個人認為即使介面改變，相關情況的發生頻率也不會突然大幅增加。如有需要，個人認為可考慮利用過濾器提醒。謝謝。--SCP-0000（留言） 2025年3月30日 (日) 18:42 (UTC)

@SCP-2000 當您建立連結時，頁面標題所加的空格會被考慮在內。「維基百科: 互助客棧/消息 」會轉換為 「維基百科:互助客棧/消息」。:)

我不明白您的引述：「可能不適用於中文維基百科」和「相關樣式可能需要修改」您能幫幫我嗎？

(我使用 DeepL 參與這個對話，恐怕有一些限制）。

Trizek (WMF)（留言） 2025年4月1日 (二) 17:47 (UTC)

@Trizek (WMF)：

• About the space: Chinese (and Japanese) uses U+FF1A ： FULLWIDTH COLON as colon. A halfwidth U+003A : COLON and a space would look really similar to the fullwidth colon. Compare 讨论：地球 and 讨论: 地球. (Note: simplified Chinese font families looks like ": " while traditional Chinese and Japanese fonts looks like " : " for different standards.) But SCP-2000 pointed out that this problem has been bothering Chinese users, even without the space problem. So I guess that's not a big deal then.
• About editing styles: zhwiki uses a custom style for XfD pages (MediaWiki:Gadget-OldAfD.css). It won't conflict with the new styles, will they?

 ——魔琴［留言 贡献 PJ:小學 PJ:兩岸］ 2025年4月2日 (三) 03:06 (UTC)

@魔琴：This change only affects the discussion namespace (e.g. Talk, Wikipedia talk), so I believe there will not be any conflict. Thanks.--SCP-0000（留言） 2025年4月2日 (三) 03:47 (UTC)

Thank you for the details. Isn't the colon different you describe handled by the change language variant dropdown?

In any case, let me know if you notice a blocking change with these design improvements. --Trizek (WMF)（留言） 2025年4月2日 (三) 12:14 (UTC)

加有__NEWSECTIONLINK__魔术字但不在Talk命名空间的页面（比如现在我们正在讨论的这个页面）技术上不被当做讨论页（如无法使用小工具）的问题能否解决？--42.200.230.123（留言） 2025年4月2日 (三) 07:56 (UTC)

我有點困惑，因為我看到當前頁面是一個談話頁面，有回覆和訂閱按鈕或縮排。您能告訴我更多關於這方面的資訊嗎？

我檢查了程式碼，發現目前頁面沒有使用 __ NEWSECTIONLINK__。我在 维基百科:互助客栈/消息/header 上也找不到它，但在 {{Village pump page header}} 中卻有。--Trizek (WMF)（留言） 2025年4月2日 (三) 12:26 (UTC)

看来这问题已经被修复了--145.223.69.126（留言） 2025年4月5日 (六) 15:58 (UTC)

無法使用小工具的問題只能由小工具的開發者解決就是了，謝謝。--SCP-0000（留言） 2025年4月2日 (三) 15:30 (UTC)

Sub-referencing: User testing

Apologies for writing in English, please help us by providing a translation below

Hi I’m Johannes from Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes team. We are making great strides with the new sub-referencing feature and we’d love to invite you to take part in two activities to help us move this work further:

1. Try it out and share your feedback

   Please try the updated wikitext feature on the beta wiki and let us know what you think, either on our talk page or by booking a call with our UX researcher.

2. Get a sneak peak and help shape the Visual Editor user designs

   Help us test the new design prototypes by participating in user sessions – sign up here to receive an invite. We're especially hoping to speak with people from underrepresented and diverse groups. If that's you, please consider signing up! No prior or extensive editing experience is required. User sessions will start May 14th.

We plan to bring this feature to Wikimedia wikis later this year. We’ll reach out to wikis for piloting in time for deployments. Creators and maintainers of reference-related tools and templates will be contacted beforehand as well.

Thank you very much for your support and encouragement so far in helping bring this feature to life!
