[edit]@دنيا please don't forget to include your request on CentralNotice/Request (per step 3) next time [1].
And please provide the banner code (a mix of html and css like this) or provide an icon and a simple line of text if you want us to use the standard banner (preview).
Also per CentralNotice/Usage guidelines banner campaigns lasting longer than two weeks usually need community approval. And if you want to reach out to multiple language versions, we usually require translations for all those languages. Looking at your landing page it seems to aim at minorities in the Arab world – is there a reason why you want to target logged-out (and logged-in) users all around the world? --Johannnes89 (talk) 06:30, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hello @Johannnes89, thank you so much for your response.
- Noted on the 3rd step.
- For the banner, I added a text and a logo and you can use them for the banner.
- and for the languages, I did not realise the difference between the countries and the languages, but what I need is to reach Arabic people all over the world as many of them are in non-Arab countries, this is replying to your question, and reach them on Commons. Is that ok for the announcement to be just in English?
- and please, if I need the consent of the commons community approval please send me a link to request that. Best دنيا (talk) 22:16, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Hi @Reda,
I am happy to help, but have some additional comments first.
SheSaid banners in general run on a low diet on the Wikipedia (to get Wikipedia editors to start on Wikiquote), not only on Wikiquote as in your request above. I can turn it on for the Arab Wikipedia ahead of the general start of the SheSaid campaign, but last time I created a banner for the Arab Wikipedia I received complaints that the CentralNotice banners were not visible, and I think it is the piece of code in line 1032 and 1039 of the Arab Wikipedia common.css that hides all CentralNotice campaigns to the project. Has there been a community consultation on this? I'd like to read the discussion and reasons for the decision.
About the banner design your created: CN banners don't run from the front but from the server side and therefore have to be scripted in HTML/CSS. Information like in the general SheSaid campaign is what I need, though 1) a line of text 50-70 characters max, 2) a visual (not too detailed) and 3) one landingpage link (in the same language as the text) is already enough for me to create the banner. My coding abilities are limited and I don't know how to create links to multiple pages in one banner though. Also, as explained in the banner guidelines, we do not link to non-Wikipedia sites directly from the banners. The two Google docs in your design can definitely not be in the banner: they can of course be on the landing page if you choose so. Ciell (talk) 16:23, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- This gadget not only hides fundraising banners, but all CentralNotice banners: w:ar:MediaWiki:Gadget-HideFundraisingNotice.css. Romaine (talk) 09:44, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Ah, maybe that is the blocker Romaine, thanks! I see it was created back in 2008 and that was before we used the banners for something else than just fundraising requests. A small code change would do the trick, right? Ciell (talk) 09:54, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Central Notice admin comments
[edit]@AKibombo-WMF there are multiple issues with your requests:
- You didn't follow the instructions at CentralNotice/Request, leaving out step 3 by only adding it to the calendar, not to the request page [2] (done by others [3][4]), that's one reason why you didn't get a response so far.
- You didn't fill out the requests properly [5]
- Per CentralNotice/Banner guidelines banners are created using a mix of HTML of CSS. You are supposed to provide the banner code (except if it's just the standard banner with a different icon + text). This [6] cannot be used as a banner, because images are not responsive (which is especially bad on mobile devices).
- Per CentralNotice/Usage guidelines we usually expect translations, if a banner is shown to non-English projects, but given that your desired banner doesn't have much text, it's probably not needed in this case.
- Also per CN guidelines the campaign duration should typically be no longer than 2 weeks. We usually request people to get consensus from local communities if they want to run campaigns for longer. It should be possible to run it for longer without discussion if the priority is set to low (only showing the banner after other banners, running at the same time, have been shown).
- Is there a reason, why you want the banners to be shown to anonymous users? This means millions of readers might see the invitation to apply for a scholarship, even though it appears to be for people involved in the open or Wikimedia movement?
- WMF should have the resources to create CN banners + campaigns themselves. I don't see a reason why volunteers should deal with this?
The same comment also applies to CentralNotice/Request/Wikimedia+Libraries Convention 2025 scholarship application --Johannnes89 (talk) 09:13, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hello @Johannnes89, thanks for your response. I have only just seen this, let me read through carefully and get back to you AKibombo-WMF (talk) 16:34, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Hi @Afek,
Great to have SheSaid back, and happy to help set up the campaign and banner.
Like last year, we will only enable the campaign for those languages in which the banner + landing page has translations. Can you please supply me with a list of these before the expressed starting date of the campaign? I will try and create a preview of the banner for you to check out over the weekend. Ciell (talk) 16:39, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hello Ciell,
- Sorry for the late answer and thank you for your help.
- The participating languages areː
- Afek91 (talk) 09:50, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the list @Afek91. All of these start on Sept 1st?
- Here is a preview of the banner, I tried to make it resemble the mock up above as much as I can. Please review and tell me what you think.
- Meanwhile, you and the colleagues can start translations ahead of the start of the campaign here. Ciell (talk) 18:31, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
- Also:
- campaign for the banners on Wikiquote (no diet)
- campaign for the banners on Wikipedia (very restricted diet, will show 4 times every 28 days per user per project)
- I am proposing the Wikipedia banner to start on Sept 2nd, because the WLM banners will also already go live on the 1st. Does that make sense to you? Ciell (talk) 18:49, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]@MPossoupe please note that volunteer CentralNotice admins cannot provide you with such metrics, as we don't have access to any data on banner performance. We've mentioned this to the WMF in the past, but so far nothing has been done about it. You'll need to ask people at the foundation (e.g. the team responsible for WMF fundraising banners) who have access to those metrics. --Johannnes89 (talk) 06:35, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Johannnes89, well noted, thanks.
- Can you, please, confirm for the setups requested for the campaign? 1 bucket with 4 banners: banner 1 shown to 70% of the target, banners 2, 3 and 4 to 10% of the target each?
- Many thanks
- MPossoupe (WMF) (talk) 07:53, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- @MPossoupe (WMF) I've created the campaign [7] as well as the banners: Main banner [8] (preview [9]), second version [10] (preview [11]), third version [12] (preview [13]), fourth version [14] (preview [15]).
- I've also added the same script which has been used at the last U4C elections, displaying the banner only to users with 300 local edits. Note that that's not the same as the actual criteria (which look at global edits), but given that this was acceptable for the U4C election, I guess it's fine for the board elections as well. If not, I would like to ask you to provide such a script yourself. Volunteer CentralNotice admin capacity is very limited and the WMF should be able to find an employee who could write a more advanced script (most of us would like the WMF to take care of their own banner campaigns in general given the limited volunteer capacity).
- I also changed that the banners translation links to the correct location – please make sure to addd some WMF translations before the campaign starts, because those translations need CN admin approval (without approval the English version will be shown). Johannnes89 (talk) 17:02, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the amazing support @Johannnes89 setting up the campaign and providing the translations links. Well appreciated.
- I have made a small style change on the banner link to have it underline. I have updated the script accordingly, taking into the recent changes you made. Can you please update in your settings?
- The scripts are here:
- Regarding supporting CN admins work, few weeks ago, the Foundation has recruited a staff to support your works.
- Thanks,
- MPossoupe (WMF) (talk) 18:25, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- I know that the foundation has finally recruited a staff member for CN support and I'm very grateful for that. But given that there are currently only 5-6 volunteer CN admins who are at least somewhat active while there are 23 WMF accounts with CN admin permissions, I don't see a reason why the foundation can't handle their CN requests entirely by themselves.
- I've update the four banners [16] (you can use the preview links from my comment above). Johannnes89 (talk) 19:32, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, @Johannnes89. Have a look at the previews and all looks good.
- Also, can we please remove the 300 local edits settings and display all the 4 banners to logged-in users only.

[edit]@Paula I've created the campaign [17] as well as the banner [18] (preview [19]). Please check if everything is correct.
Please note that per CentralNotice/Usage guidelines#Campaign implementation we usually need community consensus for banner campaigns lasting longer than two weeks (especially if they target both logged in and logged out users). Given that geotargeting limits the banner to Uruguay it's probably fine as long as the local community is aware of your campaign. --Johannnes89 (talk) 08:25, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Johannnes89: thank you! Our community is already informed but I'll keep this information in mind next time we asked for a banner. I've change the phrase a little bit. Everything else is OK. Thank you very much again. Best, Paula (WDU) (talk) 14:05, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]@Martin Rulsch (WMDE): Zur Info, der 2. WikiCon-Banner: Diesmal Antrag viel früher gestellt 🙂 --Wnme (talk) 10:12, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Wnme, I took a look at this and created a banner preview for you to review, it is located at [21]. Can you take a look and let me know how it looks?
- Campaign is created (but not yet enabled) as [22].

What banner(s) will you use? What will be your landing page?
[edit]The overall design could mirror that of the Mais Povos originários banner, which looked great! There are just a few changes:
Instead of the logo, we'd like to use an image of the wikicontest's prizes, which you can find here. Do you think it's possible? Additionally, the background color should be changed to #8153D6.
Text1: Participe do Concurso de Edição Mais Diversidade em Teoria da História na Wiki, entre os dias 11 de outubro e 11 de novembro de 2024, e contribua para visibilizar conhecimentos dissidentes. Font: Open Sans Light, size 24, black.
Text2: Inscreva-se aqui. Font: Open Sans Light, size 29, white. For the box, the color is #5ED5ED.
As you probably noticed, the instructions are pretty similar to the Mais Mulheres' banner, just different background colors, image and text. Maybe using that one as reference when it's done would make the work easier! Again, thanks a lot for the help! If you have any doubts, please contact me.

[edit]See CentralNotice/Request/Mais Mulheres em Teoria da História na Wiki/2024#Discussion, the requested font size / amount of text / image size is likely too large for this request as well. --Johannnes89 (talk) 14:44, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hello, @Johannnes89:. Can we shorten the main sentence to “Participe do Concurso de Edição Mais Diversidade em Teoria da História na Wiki e contribua para visibilizar conhecimentos dissidentes.” What do you think? I'd like to point out that we're also going to include a MetaWiki landing page in this banner, but we haven't created the page yet. I'll post it here soon. Thanks in advance. Danielly Figueredo (Projeto Mais+) (talk) 18:15, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Danielly Figueredo (Projeto Mais+): yes of course we can change the landing page link at a later point. I've created the campaign [23] and the preliminary banner [24] (Preview [25]). Please review everything to make sure it's alright. Looking at the mobile version [26] on a smartphone I think this banner should use less text. --Johannnes89 (talk) 06:25, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

[edit]@User:Christoph Jackel (WMDE) als Logo File:Wikimedia 75 Jahre Grundgesetz Logo klein.png zu nutzen ist nicht ideal: Zum einen sind Textelemente in Bildern immer mit dem Risiko behaftet, im Banner je nach Gerät ggf. verzerrt dargestellt zu werden. Und zum anderen ist das Logo sehr länglich, was bei Bannern mit wenig Text / Darstellung auf breiten Bildschirmen zwar kein Problem sein sollte (z.B. ist bei typischen Bannern wie diesem [27] am Laptop noch viel Freiraum), aber sowas führt am Handy schnell dazu, dass Logo und Text sich überlappen bzw. der Text auf viele Zeilen umgebrochen wird, wodurch das Banner deutlich größere Teil des Screens einnimmt. Man könnte es trotzdem mal ausprobieren, aber ideal wäre ein etwas quadratischeres Icon/Logo. --Johannnes89 (talk) 13:18, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Lieber Johannnes89 , wie ist File:Wikimedia_75_Jahre_Grundgesetz_Logo_groß.png dieses? Grüße Christoph Jackel (WMDE) 15:57, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Christoph Jackel (WMDE) ich habe das Banner nun mit dem von dir vorgeschlagenen Logo erstellt (Banner [28], Vorschau [29]). Bist du dir sicher bzgl. der von dir gewünschten Hintergrundfarbe?
- Auch die Kampagne habe ich bereits erstellt [30], aber da müssen wir nochmal was ändern: Normalerweise sollen Banner maximal 1-2 Wochen laufen – insbesondere dann, wenn in den Projekten parallel auch andere Banner laufen (aktuell z.B. die WMDE 30-Tages-Challenge für logged-out user und das WikiCon-Banner für logged-in user).
- Mehrere Optionen:
- Wir geben dem Banner die aktuell noch vier Wochen Laufzeit, dann aber mit low priority und starkem impression limit (= das Banner wird erst ausgespielt, nachdem user andere parallel laufende Banner gesehen haben, anstatt dass es Zufall ist, welches Banner zuerst ausgespielt wird)
- Wir reduzieren die Laufzeit auf zwei Wochen (z.B. ab 01.09.?), dann bekommt es normale Priorität.
- Wie neulich schon erwähnt, sollte WMDE sowas eigentlich selber machen, anstatt für CentralNotice Volunteer-Kapazitäten zu nutzen. Ich bitte darum, das in deinem Team weiterzugeben, kann gut sein, dass ich so einen Bannerrequest künftig nicht bearbeiten würde. Johannnes89 (talk) 08:37, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Entschuldige bitte, Johannnes89, ich habe das mitbekommen und werde mich einarbeiten. Vielen Dank und Entschuldigung nohmal. 2 Wochen, verstanden! Christoph Jackel (WMDE) 12:21, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Christoph Jackel (WMDE) die zwei Wochen vor dem Termin oder ist dir ein anderer Zeitraum lieber? Johannnes89 (talk) 12:33, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Vor dem Termin ist denke ich am Beste 10000 Dank Johannnes89 Christoph Jackel (WMDE) 12:40, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Ok, hab die Kampagne auf zwei Wochen mit normaler Priorität gesetzt, endend am 12.09. (laut Anmeldeseite soll man sich bis dahin eintragen). Johannnes89 (talk) 12:50, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

- @Merle von Wittich (WMDE) dass sich FUN drum gekümmert hat und für WMDE-Banner keine Volunteers genutzt werden, ist vorbildlich, trotzdem wäre es beim nächsten Mal gut, die Kampagne nicht nur im CentralNotice/Calendar, sondern auch bei CentralNotice/Request einzutragen [35] :) LG --Johannnes89 (talk) 16:15, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- Ich glaube nicht, dass das Probleme beim Banner liegt, sondern auf WMDE-Seite.

- scheint dafür zuständig zu sein, dem Bannerlink nen Tracking-Parameter anzufügen, um später in der Analyse sehen zu können, wie viele Leute über den CentralNotice Banner auf die Challenge kamen und wie viele Leute aus anderen Quellen wie Newsletter, Social Media o.Ä. kamen (wo vermutlich andere Tracking-Parameter genutzt werden).
- Der Code-Schnipsel produzierte den Link https://www.wikimedia.de/wikipedia-challenge/?campaign=WMDE_challenge_2024_banner, der die von der Community festgestellte 404 Meldung auslöst (obwohl der Link in den letzten Tagen noch ging). Wenn man den Tracking-Parameter beliebig verändert (z.B. https://www.wikimedia.de/wikipedia-challenge/?campaignn=WMDE_challenge_2024_banner -> campaignn statt campaign), funktioniert der Link wie gewünscht.
- Das muss also die IT irgendwie lösen und hat bestimmt nichts mit dem Banner zu tun. Bis dahin bleibt meine Lösung – wie gestern umgesetzt – einfach keinen tracking parameter auszuspielen, also nur

Central Notice admin comments
[edit]- @Kai Nissen (WMDE), Merle von Wittich (WMDE), and Elisabeth Mandl (WMDE): I'm really angry about this campaign, in particular that it is disturbing my well-known vacation right now, both as a volunteer and staff member. Why was there a need for that? Why now? Why so rushed? Why in such a poor way? — More or less everything was done wrong:
- The campaign was requested not in the needed time, 10 days in advance. Why? Community CentralNotice admins could have double-checked for such things like broken links which we have now experienced.
- The campaign duration is much longer than most other campaign, 4 weeks instead of 2 weeks. Why? And why at full display? The cycle also seems odd to me, 5 displays but reset after 0 seconds; is that correct?
- The campaign was not aligned with other campaigns in the same window (the problem with the lack in CNR has already been mentioned): As of now, KulTour digital is targeting the very same people. That campaign was requested long before your own campaign: request page. @Christoph Jackel (WMDE): for that reason. Don't you talk between different teams when you intend to run campaign?
- The campaign was targeting users not only in Germany but also in Austria, Switzerland (and South Tyrol; not set, neither is Commons set as requested). Have WMAT and WMCH been involved? @Raimund Liebert (WMAT), Manfred Werner (WMAT), Claudia.Garad, Lantus (WMCH), and Lantus:, please check that and comment plus (dis)approve.
- It doesn't seem that local community has been informed about it beforehand. This is standard for campaigns, especially with such wide reach and long duration. Can you provide a link to the WMDE community portal, Kurier or other communication places in dewiki? According to this discussion, there are also community concerns which should have been addressed beforehand.
- The banner itself is very big, on mobile it covers more than half of the screen. Is this necessary? Why is such an invasive display needed for something WMDE- and not community-related?
- Most problematically, the landing page's main purpose seems to be the collection of email addresses. While linking to external pages outside of Wikimedia projects seems to be accepted when it's a Wikimedia affiliate handled page (guidelines about this might be coming soon), it's absolutely not acceptable to collect e-mail addresses like this in the EU from anonymous users (as this campaign is set now). All the needed GDPR-related extra information about the duration of saves, possibilities for deletions, etc. are not mentioned in the linked form. It is not sufficient to have a link called “Datenschutz” that would tackle these issues.
- Therefore, I have disabled the campaign so that it can be set up appropriately next month. CC @Johannnes89 and Astinson (WMF): —DerHexer (Talk) and Martin Rulsch (WMDE) (talk) 21:48, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer,
- regarding your points:
- The CN request was indeed very last minute – and my bad that I only did at the request and added it to the calender like Johannnes89 mentioned above. Regarding the timelime: This campaign is quite important for us and as we are targeting not-logged in users we do want to as much distance as possible from the fall campaign.
- The plan for the duration here was that we would monitor the impressions on the landing page and shorten the campaign accordingly if the results were “no longer worth the price” of a CN campaign.
- WMAT and WMCH were informed by @Elisabeth Mandl (WMDE)
- The Kultour does not target the same people as we are talking about logged in and not logged in users. And actually this was another reason to rush the campaign because next to the fall campaign we were also anticipating WLM CNs.
- The banner is the same banner as of 2020. For the sake of costs (like financial and time) the banners were reused.
- This is actually a point that happened too late: we only created a notice in the WMDE community portal at the start of the campaign. We consistently monitored the Kurier at the start of the campaign and reacted immediately, including adapting the landing page within a very short time. In the Kurier discussion, I don't actually see any criticized points that would have influenced the campaign beforehand. Not the point here, but fortunately we are also getting positive feedback on the content of the emails from community members who comment in the Kurier.
- So I would ask you - especially with regard to targeting and the upcoming CN campaigns that address these groups - to restart the campaign asap. Merle von Wittich (WMDE) (talk) 08:51, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer,
- Merle has already addressed most of the points. I'd like to add a few additional comments.
- I was a bit surprised that you wanted to be involved during your vacation. Unfortunately, we were only able to submit the request on the 7th, and Merle informed you on the 8th that there was nothing for you as admins to handle. We viewed it as a positive development that we could rely on WMDE resources at this point.
- Due to your concerns about data protection, I consulted with the relevant colleagues. Our GDPR officers have discussed this exact topic with legal experts, particularly regarding data collection through forms. It was confirmed that at WMDE, we are doing more than what is legally required, which is very important to us. It would already be sufficient to simply reference WMDE’s data protection policy. In addition, we provide a link to ZOHO’s privacy policy, and WMDE’s is listed directly below.
- Regarding data deletion periods, there are no specific requirements since we have a "legitimate interest" in the data. The tool we use, ZOHO Europe, hosts the data on servers within the EU, which was a key factor in our selection process. The purpose of this page is to collect email addresses for the 30-day newsletter that users sign up for. However, this is not about indiscriminate data collection. The email addresses and corresponding names or pseudonyms are stored exclusively in the mailing list and are not added to a central contact list at WMDE. We’ve even implemented a double opt-in process to ensure users can confirm their subscription again. The form itself has not changed in the last four years, only the tool we are using.
- In summary, we are operating at the minimal necessary level of data collection required to send a newsletter. If you have any further questions or concerns after your vacation, we can discuss them with the GDPR officers.
- Since we cannot afford to pause the campaign for too long (to avoid re-targeting the same audiences who have already seen the banners and to prevent overlapping with the autumn campaign), I kindly ask you to reactivate the banners as soon as possible. We've seen excellent results in the first few days, and this is a fantastic opportunity to inform people about the wiki projects and encourage their participation. Surely, this aligns with all of our interests.-Elisabeth Mandl (WMDE) (talk) 14:12, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- I agree that the concerns have been met, especially that the dewiki discussions show community approval and that there's currently no banner campaign interfering with yours. GDPR compliance seems alright to me as well, but Martin is right that we need someone from the foundation to approve the landing page, similar to the required approval for fundraising and survey banners.
- @TAndic (WMF) and JBrungs (WMF): is this landing page by WMDE (asking people to sign up for a newsletter to learn more about Wikipedia) fine for you? Johannnes89 (talk) 18:08, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks @Johannnes89 for the ping, and all for the thorough discussion to meet concerns - I'm glad to see the thought put into the GDPR, as I would have asked similarly to make sure this is being considered.
- Looks good on the WMF side :) - TAndic (WMF) (talk) 12:34, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer,
- The text addressing the inquiries regarding data protection on the landing page was created in consultation with and approved by the two current individuals responsible for data protection at WMDE.--Elisabeth Mandl (WMDE) (talk) 10:30, 22 August 2024 (UTC)

- @DerHexer I've completely missed your comment/notification due which that banner was not active at all during the requested period. My bad.
- However, I still would like to set this banner active to attract more people to join the competition. Is it possible to change the banner date from 2024-08-15 to 2024-08-31? Richard Sekerak (WMCZ) (talk) 09:08, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
- Sure. I've changed it accordingly. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:32, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer I've just realised there is a small error in the banner I prepared. Could you please change the number of the year to 2024. In the sentence "Zapojte se do Czech Wiki Photo 2023 a vyhrajte skvělé ceny!" replace the year to 2024 "Zapojte se do Czech Wiki Photo 2024 a vyhrajte skvělé ceny!"?

- @DerHexer is everything else correct? Richard Sekerak (WMCZ) (talk) 14:01, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Richard Sekerak (WMCZ): A landscape image in a banner doesn't work well in mobile display. Please open this link with your mobile phone. I recommend only to use one logo or (at max) two upright versions. I've created the campaign and banner but cannot enable it like that. Maybe you can ask the people who helped you with the Czech Wiki Photo banner, that one also worked well on mobile. The standard banner we have to use to create banners (we cannot use wiki markup as in WPWP Czechia 2024 banner but have to use HTML) has limitations. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 19:27, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

- @DerHexer Due to the violent repression of student protesters in Bangladesh during the 2024 quota reform movement, the government shut down the Internet nationwide on July 18th. This disrupted access to Wikipedia and other sites, including our campaign. We have decided to extend the campaign by an additional 7 days. Please adjust the central notice accordingly.

Central Notice admin comments
[edit]- @Pyb, Luc Hervier WMFr, and VIGNERON: I've created the campaign and banner (preview). I'm a little bit confused by the long campaign duration; usually we only approve campaigns for two to four weeks. In the banner text, I can also read about the contest time between 15 August and 27 September—why is it necessary to start the campaign on 1 July? I've reduced the diet to 5 displays every two weeks at max. Please clarify, take a look at everything and ping me for activation. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 09:48, 9 May 2024 (UTC) PS: Nice to see that you my massmail system was mentioned in one of the PDFs. There is another new tool available now, maybe take a look at this one too.
- @DerHexer: yes, the campaign for the banner is long because the contest is long. We also would like to let people know in advance ; especially as with summer vacation the traffic is a bit lower and also to give the opportunity for people to take pictures in advance (some events that are in the scope of the contest happens only during summer).
- Displaying it less often could be a solution, maybe we can also start a bit later (July 15 for instance ?) and ends a bit earlier (20 September) and increase a bit the diet?
- Feel free to ask all the questions you need. Cheers, VIGNERON * discut. 10:39, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with DerHexer that such a long campaign period is not ideal – especially as the campaign targets both logged in users and readers (who cannot opt out of banners). Running it with a reduced diet might be ok though. Note that per CentralNotice/Usage guidelines#Campaign implementation long campaigns usually require community consensus. Johannnes89 (talk) 11:02, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- @VIGNERON: I've changed the duration accordingly. Are you okay with the white background? I had to change it because the white background of the logo didn't look good on the general grey background of the banner. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 16:31, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer: perfect, thanks! Cheers, VIGNERON * discut. 13:29, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, I've enabled the campaign. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 18:15, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer: @Johannnes89 Hello, there is a mistake in the banner. Is it possible to change the sentence ? the good sentence is : Photographiez le patrimoine vivant en France et participez au concours organisé du 15 août au 27 septembre ! Thank you. Luc Hervier WMFr (talk) 15:37, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

You only get one shot to grab people's attention for the message you want to share... :)) For reference, this was the previous one. Ciell (talk) 18:10, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Many thanks, Ciell! We'll stick to the wording for now to make translation easier, but I will let you know if that changes :) RamzyM (WMF) (talk) 10:49, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- Sure @RamzyM (WMF), up to you. To be clear: is the preview okay? Ciell (talk) 17:19, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, looks good! RamzyM (WMF) (talk) 17:42, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

What countries will your campaign target?
Banner/Campaign Diet:
|
What is the purpose of the campaign? How will you measure the success of the campaign?
[edit]The sixth edition of Wiki Loves Sport (July 17th - September 22th) is organized to improve and extend content related to diversity in sport in the Wikimedia projects, and for this year event it covers in particular:
- Euro Games Vienna (from 17 to 20 July).
- Paris 2024 Olympic games (from 26 July to 11 August).
- Paris 2024 Paralympic games (from 28 August to 8 September) and other.
Given the gaps which is our topic of interest, the campaign is mainly focused on content concerning missing or underrepresented groups in sport (so a special focus on women's sport, LGBTQIA+ communities, para athletics, indigeneous and minorities etc), but as Wikimedians, we appreciate any sports-related content in any language you want to add.
Seeing the affiliate's goal of increasing the diversity, whoever writes +5 articles about female & non-binary athletes and/or binary & non-binary para-athletes, will receive a barnstar and a digital certificate from the main organizer WikiDonne.
What banner(s) will you use? What will be your landing page?

[edit]- @Camelia.boban: This request has some flaws:
- Usually, a variation of the standard banner is preferable. See this how-to how to request it. We cannot make good use of full banner GIFs because they either look too small on the desktop or too big for mobile. It's technically much trickier to use different language files instead of texts. I tried my best to find an acceptable version.
- The SVGs have white borders which can be seen on the same-colored background.
- I don't understand the purpose of the slogans. Do you want to add them somewhere to the SVGs? Why are they not part of the file? Do you have a mockup how it should look like? I didn't include them right now.
- Usually, we ask notifications to local village pumps that a campaign will take place. However, since this project seems to be established, this isn't necessary anymore.
- Why is tt (tatar) requested as target language? I didn't include this one because there was no information about it.
- I have created the campaign and banner. Please check the preview (English, Italian) and let me know about it. It would really be helpful to fix the borders of the versions before we enable the campaign. I assume that other variations of the banner will not be available in time. Please ping me how to proceed and when you approve it. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 21:48, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @DerHexer, it is very important to have the banner in French too, as three/four affiliates which signed for participation have this language as the official one. About the purpose of the slogan: it was for having a kinda call to action outside the banner static image that can be translated in different languages. It is hard to do this variation the day before the campaign starts, I will try to do my best at least to remove the banner's white border. Thank you, Camelia (talk) 08:40, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Camelia.boban: The banners were also created for French and Serbian as requested. Apologies that this wasn't clear when I was giving the examples in English and Italian. Looking forward to the removal of the white borders. I don't think that I will find a good place myself where to put the slogan. I neither fits under the image nor at its side (not working on mobile). Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 08:49, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hello @DerHexer! tt is meant to be shown in Tatar Wikipedia. I can help with localization now (Вики спортны ярата 2024 / 17 июль - 22 сентябрь). Global landing page is translatable, so please link it to Wiki Loves Sport 2024/tt - I will start translating now and our local organizer will complete it later whenever the banner's up. FYI only: Traditionally, we've been using Sitenotice link to our multi-year page @ tt:Википедия:Бәйгеләр/Вики спортны ярата. Regards, Frhdkazan (talk) 14:04, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Frhdkazan: I know ttwiki. ;) However, neither a country where it would be displayed was requested as target, as far as I can see, nor an SVG for the banner was created. Your translation of the banner text is helpful but has to be copied to a new version of the SVG (I'm not an expert in this). Then I can arrange the banner also to show up in ttwiki. Thanks as well for the translation of the landing page! Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 14:33, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer: ttwiki's greatest potential audience is in Russia, but around 20-25% global - in Central Asia (mainly) + Turkey + UAE + Germany + USA + Canada + Finland + Australia ... Good to let these diasporas see ttWP community is active in international contests as well.
- As for the CentralNotice: we believe @Camelia.boban & WikiDonne are doing a great job, so happy to support their activities with a standard banner, whenever it's ready. Thanks to you as well. Frhdkazan (talk) 15:02, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you both @DerHexer & @Frhdkazan, graphic design it's not my cup of tea :-D. I removed the white borders from the banners. Camelia (talk) 17:26, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Camelia.boban and Frhdkazan: I have enabled the campaign, but without an SVG for ttwiki I cannot run the campaign there (I would limit it to Russia, China and Poland at first). Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 18:44, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer: Here it is, the banner in svg for Tatar WP. Camelia (talk) 19:00, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

- @DerHexer The banner link appears to point to wrong page (Commons:Wiki Loves Folklore 2024 instead of Wiki Loves Sport 2024). Please fix. OhanaUnitedTalk page 00:57, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
- Fortunately, it was only the English version. It is fixed now. Thanks for the ping. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 05:59, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer: Any issue why it is not visible on the Italian Wikipedia? Update: never mind, sorry, maybe was the cache, changing the browser, now I can see it, thank you. Camelia (talk) 07:55, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

- @DerHexer @Camelia.boban The banner that was created looks off-center and/or wrong size. Screenshot here: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F56871300 (taken on English Wikipedia). Matma Rex (talk) 13:29, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Matma Rex: That's what I with my limited HTML/CSS/JS knowledge I could provide with the input I had (an image); please read the discussion above. No other CN admins seem to be around to enable that campaign at all (help is much appreciated here as well). Hence, if you have a fix, I will try to implement it. :) Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 13:33, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- I've disabled the campaign to work on this. Vermont (🐿️—🏳️🌈) 14:16, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- DerHexer, the image in the banner (which also includes all of the text) had "margin-left: 15%;" set. I edited it to set left and right margins to auto, which centers it. Vermont (🐿️—🏳️🌈) 14:30, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Matma Rex & @Vermont Thank you for your help. Camelia (talk) 14:35, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Re-enabled, but I'd note that this banner is not compatible with dark mode or with screen readers. We shouldn't be using svgs as a replacement for text. Vermont (🐿️—🏳️🌈) 14:48, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]@DerHexer and Johannnes89:, can you check & approve, best --Christian Philipp (WMAT) (talk) 10:34, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Christian Philipp (WMAT), ich hab die Kampagne [47] erstellt und das auch mit dem Banner probiert, aber irgendwas läuft da noch nicht korrekt mit dem von euch intendierten Hintergrund. Entweder bin ich gerade zu doof oder euer Code enthält nen Fehler (Banner [48], Vorschau [49]). Ich kann mir das aber frühestens in ein paar Tagen anschauen, jetzt fahr ich gerade zum Zukunftskongress. Vielleicht kann Martin auch helfen, den Fehler zu finden, aber der ist gerade im Urlaub.
- Es ist übrigens bei solchen Anfragen sinnvoll, auf frühere, ähnliche Central Notice requests zu verweisen (z.B. den [50]), das hilft mir u.A. beim Abgleich, dass die Kampagneneinstellungen so gut sind. Im konkreten Fall ließ sich aber durch den Blick auf eure Bannerseite ermitteln, dass es frühere Kampagnen gibt, die ich mir mal anschauen könnte. :) --Johannnes89 (talk) 11:24, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- danke, ich kümmer mich drum. Kann ich das direkt testen? lg --Christian Philipp (WMAT) (talk) 12:12, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Johannnes89:, hab den Fehler gefunden. Kannst du bitte nochmals checken. lg --Christian Philipp (WMAT) (talk) 07:39, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Danke dir @Christian Philipp (WMAT), nun funktioniert es [51]. Johannnes89 (talk) 15:05, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- ich danke dir, @Johannnes89:, ich habe nochmals an der Textgröße geschraubt, war auf mobile ok, aber auf desktop zu klein. statt relativer 120% habe ich jetzt 20px als font-size genommen. Kannst du das bitte nochmals aktualisieren. Frage: Muss ich dann noch was machen, um den Banner am 1.7. zu aktivieren, oder geht das jetzt automatisch. lg --Christian Philipp (WMAT) (talk) 18:27, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Christian Philipp (WMAT) done [52]. Die Kampagne ist mit Start am 01.07. aktiviert. Johannnes89 (talk) 18:32, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

[edit]We'd like to continue the campaign from last year (request). The banner will only be running for two days before the first Wednesday of each month, and will be targeted to users with less than 100 edits. Jon Harald Søby (WMNO) (talk) 08:24, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- @DerHexer you handled this last year right? Do you have time to coordinate again? Ciell (talk) 18:51, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- Nope, Jon organized it himself. I hope that he will do it for this year again. ;) And as far as I know, they want to reuse the campaign of last year. —DerHexer (Talk) 19:13, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
