Wikipedia translation of the week: 2024-34
[編集]The winner this Translation of the week is
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.

Please be bold and help translate this article!
The Cappadocian calendar was a solar calendar that was derived from the Persian Zoroastrian calendar. It is named after the historic region Cappadocia in present-day Turkey, where it was used. The calendar, which had 12 months of 30 days each and five epagomenal days, originated between 550 and 330 BC, when Cappadocia was part of the Persian Achaemenid Empire. The Cappadocian calendar was identical to the Zoroastrian calendar; this can be seen in its structure, in the Avestan names and in the order of the months. The Cappadocian calendar reflects the Iranian cultural influence in the region.

Tool of the week
- User:Lagewi/references.js - "Sometimes, the data on Wikidata does not answer all your questions. Some types of information are difficult to encode in statements, or simply has not been encoded on Wikidata yet. In such cases, it might be useful to go through the references attached to claims of the entity, for additional information. To simplify this process, this user script lists all unique references based on stated in (P248) and reference URL (P854). The references are listed in a collapsible list below the table of labels and descriptions, collapsed by default to not be obtrusive." To enable it, include the following line in your common.js:
mw.loader.load('//www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=User:Lagewi/references.js&oldid=2039248554&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');

The wildlife of the archipelago of Bahrain, is more varied than might be expected of this small group of islands in the Persian Gulf. Apart from a strip of the north and west of the main island, where crops are grown with irrigation, the land is arid. With a very hot dry summer, a mild winter, and brackish groundwater, the plants need adaptations in order to survive. Nevertheless, 196 species of higher plant have been recorded here, as well as about seventeen species of terrestrial mammals, many birds and reptiles, and many migratory birds visit the islands in autumn and spring.

Please be bold and help translate this article!
The little Danes experiment was a 1951 Danish operation where 22 Greenlandic Inuit children were sent to Danish foster families in an attempt to re-educate them as "little Danes". While the children were all supposed to be orphans, most were not. Six children were adopted while in Denmark, and sixteen returned to Greenland, only to be placed in Danish-speaking orphanages and never live with their families again. Half of the children experienced mental health disturbances, and half of them died in young adulthood. The government of Denmark officially apologised in 2020, after several years of demands from Greenlandic officials.

Please be bold and help translate this article!
Kharayeb (Arabic: الخرايب) is a historic town in the Sidon District in the South Governorate, Lebanon. The town is 77 km (48 mi) south of Beirut, and stands at an average altitude of 190 m (620 ft) above sea level. The town boasts a rich historical legacy, with archaeological excavations revealing a complex settlement history spanning from Prehistory to the Ottoman period. Notably, Kharayeb's origins can be traced back to the Persian period (539–330 BC), when it played a pivotal role in the region's agricultural and economic landscape, culminating in the construction of its Phoenician temple around the 6th century BC.

Growth News, October 2024
[編集]
現在の業務
[編集]新規参加者向けホームページにコミュニティごとの更新モジュールを
新規参加者ホームページに新しいモジュールを追加する予定で（Newcomer Homepage）、コミュニティ発信の注目のイベントやプロジェクト、キャンペーンや取り組みに焦点を当てます。ベータウィキには簡略版を展開してあり、まもなく早期展開ウィキ（パイロットウィキ）のA/B テストを開始します。このモジュールの実装はコミュニティが採用を決めた場合に限り、また表示先は新規参加者ホームページに限定されますので、ぜひコミュニティ更新モジュールの設定方法を参照してもらうか、ご意見をプロジェクトのトークページに投稿してください。
After showcasing early design ideas at Wikimania, we conducted user testing of design prototypes. We now aim to engage communities in further discussions and plan to run a targeted experiment, presenting a structured task within the reading view to logged-in new account holders with zero edits.
This Community Configuration extension was developed to help communities customize wiki features to meet their unique needs. The Growth team is now helping other Wikimedia Foundation teams make their products configurable:
- The Moderation Tools team now provides Community Configuration for Automoderator. (T365046)
- Certain Babel extension settings will be configurable soon. (T328171)
今後の業務
[編集]当 Growth チームの年次計画の一環として、今後ともモバイル環境で建設的な活動を伸ばしていく方法を掘り下げるとともに、データ製品チームと協力して指標プラットフォーム（Metrics Platform）を介した A/B テスト機能を推進します。
コミュニティのイベント
[編集]- Growth チームの職員はウィキマニアに登壇、コミュニティによる設定：オンウィキの機能を一緒に形成する（Community Configuration: Shaping On-Wiki Functionality Together） というセッションを開きました（発表用スライド集）。当日の録画は YouTube で公開してあります。 このセッションではコミュニティ設定プロジェクトの情報更新をして、まもなくコミュニティ単位で独自の設定ができる複数の機能を紹介しました。仲裁ツール、編集機能、ウェブ、キャンペーンそれぞれの担当チームからも応援を受けて、コミュニティ設定関連の担当の計画を発表してもらいました。これらの発表に続く質疑応答では、ウィキメディア財団 Growth チームを代表して Benoît Evellin と Martin Urbanec が観衆の質問に答えました。
- ウィキインダバでHabib Mhenniさんから指導役制度（メンター）の有効性について発表がありました。録画を視聴できます。
