Your best shot 2019
[edit]Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,
It's early 2020, which means it's time again to look back at photographs taken over the course of the past 12 months. As always, I'm curious – what would you consider your best shot of 2019 and why? I invite you to share your image and your thoughts in order to provide others with the opportunity to celebrate, learn, and enjoy:
Thanks for all your effort in sharing your vision of the world with others under a free license!
All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 20:06, 19 January 2020 (UTC)
File:Françoise Foliot - Collier d'or.jpg
[edit]Bonjour Pyb, je suis dubitatif sur le fait que ce collier puisse être catégorisé dans Islamic art in the Louvre car il est daté, si je lis bien, du VI ième siècle... Qu'en penses-tu ? Cordialement --Faqscl (talk) 10:38, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Faqscl: Bonjour, en effet, j'ai corrigé. L'oeuvre ne doit pas être exposée car je ne la trouve pas dans la base Atlas. Faudra chercher dans le futur site des collections qui présentera toutes les oeuvres du musée. Pyb (talk) 15:06, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
- oui je l'avais cherchée aussi, sans résultat--Faqscl (talk) 15:31, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
Does France copyright protect signatures?
[edit]Commons:Deletion requests/File:Firma Marie de Sormiou.jpg. I initially assumed European countries protect signatures, but since France is a civil law country, I wanted to check if they actually do. Abzeronow (talk) 18:15, 24 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi Pyb! Why do you known this photo was taken in Paris. I've think this is the Panthéon or Église de la Madeleine, but after see its columns (bases), I am not sure anymore.--Paris 16 (talk) 09:53, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Paris16: Hello, it's not the Panthéon because the neighbors on that side are the university and the town hall, not the small building that we can see on the picture. I have also some doubt about l'Église de la Madeleine. Pyb (talk) 18:20, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

Commons Photographers User Group: Meeting on September 26 and other stuff
[edit]Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,
I've got a quick update for you, containing three items:
- I’d like to invite you to our group’s second Virtual Meeting on Saturday, September 26, 2020. As last time, this meeting will serve as an opportunity to get to know each other better, share learnings, and connect in times of the global COVID-19 pandemic. If you'd like to present, please add your name and the proposed topic to the list on the talk page.
- Also, I'd like to start a conversation about how we should be sharing responsibility for the user group going forward. I'd love to get some help when it comes to organizing things and I'm convinced that we can achieve more if a couple of people helped with coordinating stuff.
- Finally, the Wikimedia Foundation has asked me to spread the word about their latest survey: Universal Code of Conduct Survey. The goal is to create a safer environment on Wikimedia projects and the Foundation gathers feedback prior to coming up with a first draft.
Hope to see you at the Zoom meeting in September!
All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 18:48, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

[edit]Dear Commons Photographers User Group member,
This is a quick reminder that our second virtual meeting will take place this Saturday, September 26. The agenda entails presentations about drone photography, about the story behind a featured picture, and about the future of LRMediaWiki. We'll also discuss photographers’ contacts with the Wikimedia Foundation and the election of representatives for our user group. You'll find information about all of this on the event page:
I'm also inviting you to share some information about yourself and your photography work with other members of the user group on our new membership list:

Growth team updates #16
[edit]Welcome to the sixteenth newsletter from the Growth team!
The Growth team's objective is to work on software changes that help retain new contributors in mid-size Wikimedia projects.
Growth features show impact
[edit]Newcomer task experiments results
The team recently published our analysis of the impact of newcomer tasks. We are happy to announce that we found that the Growth features, and particularly newcomer tasks, lead to increased editing from newcomers.
In November 2019, the Growth team added the "newcomer tasks" feature to the newcomer homepage. After six months, we collected data from Arabic, Vietnamese, Czech, and Korean Wikipedias. We analyzed the overall impact of the Growth features, including newcomer tasks.
This analysis finds that the Growth features lead to increases in:
- the probability that newcomers make their first article edit (+11.6%)
- the probability that they are retained as editors
- the number of edits they make during their first couple of weeks on the wiki (+22%)
We also find that the quality of their edits, as measured by revert rate, is comparable to that of a control group.
-
The number of suggested edits completed by each wiki each week, going from December 2019 to November 2020, with a line for the total. -
The number of distinct users completing suggested edits by each wiki each week, going from December 2019 to November 2020.
Because of these results, we think all Wikipedias should consider implementing these features. Learn more about how to get them.
You can find more details about this experiment on the report page. Please post any feedback or questions on the talk page
General metrics
As of November 2020, across all wikis where the features have been deployed:
- more than 5,000 newcomers have made more than 40,000 edits using Newcomer tasks.
- more than 14,000 questions have been sent to volunteer mentors by more than 11,000 users.
- more than 2,000 questions have been asked on help desks by more than 1,500 users.
Learn more about Growth results here, and please post any feedback or questions on the talk page.
Variants C and D
[edit]Variants C and D are two new arrangements of the newcomer homepage. We deployed them in October. After six weeks of these variants being deployed, we can see that they have led to increased interactions with newcomer tasks. Next, we will determine which variant is best and use that for all newcomers.
News for mentors
[edit]Mentors are volunteers ready to help newcomers in their first steps. Newcomers can contact them using the mentorship module on their homepage.
A separate list for workshops hosts
During workshops organized by education programs through the communities, workshops hosts like to mentor people they train on wiki. Several wikis requested to have a way to claim their mentees without having other newcomers being randomly being assigned to them. To address this need, a separate list can be created on wiki, for mentors that wish to claim mentees, but prefer not to have random mentees being assigned to them. Learn more about this feature.
Claiming multiple mentees at once
Mentors can use Special:ClaimMentee to claim a newcomer as their mentee. The feature now allows mentors to claim multiple newcomers at once.
Community news
[edit]The help panel allows people to post a message to the local help desk while editing. Previously, the tool always posted messages to the bottom of help desks. Wikis are now able to configure it to display new messages at the top of the help desk page. T261714
