- આવી જ રીતે આપણે પણ વિકિસ્રોતની વર્ષગાંઠ નિમિત્તે રૂપાયતન ખાતે આયોજન કરવાનું વિચાર્યું છે. હજુ સુધી તારીખ નક્કી નથી કરી. પરંતુ સૌ કોઇને અનુકુળ આવે તે તારીખ/સમયે આયોજન કરીશું.
- દરેક શક્ય તક સમયે ગુજરાતી વિકિ માધ્યમોનો પ્રચાર થતો રહે તે ગુજરાતીઓ અને ગુજરાતી બન્ને માટે આવકારદાયક છે. તે સાથે જ જુદી જુદી દિશાઓમાં થતાં સ્વયંસેવી આ પ્રકારનાં કાર્યો - દરેકની પોતાની પ્રાથમિક વ્યાવસાયીક પ્રવ્રુત્તિ, નૅટવિશ્વ પર પોતાની આગવી પ્રવ્રુત્તિ- અને વિકિ કે (હવે નવો આદરાયેલો) વૅબ-ગુર્જરી જેવા પ્રયોગો અને પ્રવ્રુત્તિઓને સાંકળી લઇ, અસરકારક રીતે પ્રગતિ થતી રહે તે અંગે પણ સાથે સાથે વિચાર કરતા રહેવાનો સમય પણ્ પાકતો જાય છે. વિકિનાંમાધ્યમો પર કામ્ કરતાં લોકોની સંખ્યા વધી છે તેમ છતાં ગુણવતા જળવાઇ રહી છે, તે માટે સંચાલક મિત્રોની જહેમત અને કાળજીની પણ દાદ દેવી જ પડે. -- --Amvaishnav (talk) ૨૨:૪૦, ૧૧ ફેબ્રુઆરી ૨૦૧૩ (IST)

One year Gujarati Wikisource
ફેરફાર કરોHello Wikisource editors,
congratulations, today it is now 1 year since the gu.wikisource.org subdomain was created.
From the Wikimedia Incubator & Language Committee, we would like to get some feedback from newer wikis about their situation.
We prepared some questions about what we would like to know. Feel free to answer as many of them as you like.
- How has activity developed after the subdomain's creation? (in comparision with the situation on www.wikisource.org)
- Is it now easier to be found by new users?
- Would you have done something in a better/different way in hindsight?
- Is there anything where you say 'This should have been better during the testing phase (OldWikisource, Langcom)'?
Best regards, --MF-Warburg (talk) ૦૬:૪૮, ૨૮ માર્ચ ૨૦૧૩ (IST)
- Thank you very much for your wishes,
- After getting the subdomain the activity ha become more speedy. It's like living in Rented home and living in owned home. One might not be too keen to decorate the rented house, but when one has his or her on houe he puts efoort with all its will. When we got sudomain the page count was around 1000+ after one year it is 2300+. It was during this year when we uploaded 25 books, that with all typing a there is no OCR for Gujarati Language.
- the new domain address is easier to found by new users.
- I dont think so
- no, it is good only.
Thanks for contacting, Regards. --Sushant savla (talk) ૦૭:૪૮, ૬ એપ્રિલ ૨૦૧૩ (IST)
- Many thanks for your answers! :) --MF-Warburg (talk) ૦૦:૦૫, ૭ એપ્રિલ ૨૦૧૩ (IST)

Help from Multilingual Wikisource
ફેરફાર કરોHello! I'm not able to read nor write Gujarati, so please let me write in English.
I'm deleting the last Gujarati pages from Multilingual Wikisource that already were moved to this site in 2012. In some cases I don't know how do I have to proceed, so let me post those cases here. For the moment, just one:
- mul:તારા નામમાં, ઓ સ્વતંત્રતા, મીઠી આ શી વત્સલતાભરી was moved to તારા નામમાં, ઓ સ્વતંત્રતા, મીઠી આ શી વત્સલતાભરી but was later deleted. There are 2 similar pages here, but not with the same exact text: સ્વતંત્રતાની મીઠાશ and સિંધુડો/સ્વતંત્રતાની મીઠાશ (the later needs to close the
</poem>
tag, but it's protected so I can't do it by myself). Do you think that mul:તારા નામમાં, ઓ સ્વતંત્રતા, મીઠી આ શી વત્સલતાભરી should be deleted? Thanks! -Aleator (ચર્ચા) ૦૪:૩૩, ૨૪ ઓક્ટોબર ૨૦૧૬ (IST)
- mul:તારા નામમાં, ઓ સ્વતંત્રતા, મીઠી આ શી વત્સલતાભરી was deleted here because it was a duplicate of સિંધુડો/સ્વતંત્રતાની મીઠાશ. Both the page contained same poem. Hence, the earlier one was deleted. You may delete both the page. The poem is already with gu wikisource.--Vyom25(ચર્ચા) ૧૪:૧૧, ૨૪ ઓક્ટોબર ૨૦૧૬ (IST)

Thanks. -Aleator (ચર્ચા) ૨૦:૦૧, ૫ નવેમ્બર ૨૦૧૬ (IST)
- જરાયે દોસ્તો ખબર નથી is a copyvio. Please delete it. Thanks for copying talk page of ચર્ચા:ભગવદ ગીતા ૬ may serve as example of copyvio. The extra edit on યમુનાષ્ટક is not suitable for the wikisource. Hopefully this is suitable answer. Feel free to post any queries. Thank you.--Vyom25(ચર્ચા) ૧૪:૨૫, ૬ નવેમ્બર ૨૦૧૬ (IST)

Wikimedia Movement Strategy: 2020 Community Conversations
ફેરફાર કરોDear Wikimedians,
Greetings! Wishing you a very happy new year!
We have an update for the next steps of the Movement Strategy! We're preparing for a final round of community conversations with Wikimedia affiliates and online communities around a synthesized set of draft recommendations to start around late/mid January. In the meantime, recommendations’ writers and strategy team has been working on integrating community ideas and feedback into these recommendations. Thank you, for all of your contributions!
What's New?
ફેરફાર કરોThe recommendations writers have been working to consolidate the 89 recommendations produced by the working groups. They met in Berlin a few weeks back for an in-person session to produce a synthesized recommendations document which will be shared for public comment around late/mid January. A number of common areas for change were reflected in the recommendations, and the writers assessed and clustered them around these areas. The goal was to outline the overall direction of the change and present one set that is clearly understood, implementable and demonstrates the reasoning behind each.
What's Next?
ફેરફાર કરોWe will be reaching out to you to help engage your affiliate in discussing this new synthesized version. Your input in helping us refine and advance key ideas will be invaluable, and we are looking forward to engaging with you for a period of thirty days from late/mid January. Our final consultation round is to give communities a chance to "review and discuss" the draft recommendations, highlighting areas of support and concern as well as indicating how your community would be affected.
Please share ideas on how you would like to meet and discuss the final draft recommendations when they are released near Mid January whether through your strategy salons, joining us at global and regional events, joining online conversations, or sending in notes from affiliate discussions. We couldn't do this without you, and hope that you will enjoy seeing your input reflected in the next draft and final recommendations. This will be an opportunity for the movement to review and respond to the recommendations before they are finalized.
If possible, we'd love if you could feature a discussion of the draft recommendations at the next in-person meeting of your affiliate, ideally between the last week of January and the first week of February. If not, please let us know how we can help support you with online conversations and discussing how the draft recommendations fit with the ideas shared at your strategy salon (when applicable).
The input communities have shared so far has been carefully documented, analyzed, and folded into the synthesized draft recommendations. Communities will be able to see footnotes referencing community ideas. What they share again in January/February will be given the same care, seriousness, and transparency.
This final round of community feedback will be presented to the Board of Trustees alongside the final recommendations that will be shared at the Wikimedia Summit.

Wikimedia 2030: Movement Strategy Community conversations are here!
ફેરફાર કરોDear Affiliate Representatives and community members,
The launch of our final round of community conversation is finally here! We are excited to have the opportunity to invite you to take part.
The recommendations have been published! Please take time over the next five weeks to review and help us understand how your organization and community would be impacted.
What Does This Mean?
The core recommendations document has now been published on Meta in Arabic, English, French, German, Hindi, Portuguese, and Spanish. This is the result of more than a year of dedicated work by our working groups, and we are pleased to share the evolution of their work for your final consideration.
In addition to the recommendations text, you can read through key documents such as Principles, Process, and the Writer’s Reflections, which lend important context to this work and highlight the ways that the recommendations are conceptually interlinked.
We also have a brief Narrative of Change [5] which offers a summary introduction to the recommendations material.
How Is My Input Reflected In This Work?
Community input played an important role in the drafting of these recommendations. The core recommendations document reflects this and cites community input throughout in footnotes.
I also encourage you to take a look at our community input summaries. These texts show a further analysis of how all of the ideas you shared last year through online conversations, affiliate meetings, and strategy salons connect to recommendations. Many of the community notes and reports not footnoted in the core recommendations document are referenced here as evidence of the incredible convergence of ideas that have brought us this far.
What Happens Now?
Affiliates, online communities, and other stakeholders have the next five weeks to discuss and share feedback on these recommendations. In particular, we’re hoping to better understand how you think they would impact our movement - what benefits and opportunities do you foresee for your affiliate, and why? What challenges or barriers would they pose for you? Your input at this stage is vital, and we’d like to warmly invite you to participate in this final discussion period.
We encourage volunteer discussion co-ordinators for facilitating these discussions in your local language community on-wiki, on social media, informal or formal meet ups, on-hangouts, IRC or the village pump of your project. Please collect a report from these channels or conversations and connect with me directly so that I can be sure your input is collected and used. Alternatively, you can also post the feedback on the meta talk pages of the respective recommendations.
After this five week period, the Core Team will publish a summary report of input from across affiliates, online communities, and other stakeholders for public review before the recommendations are finalized. You can view our updated timeline here as well as an updated FAQ section that addresses topics like the goal of this current period, the various components of the draft recommendations, and what’s next in more detail.
Thank you again for taking the time to join us in community conversations, and we look forward to receiving your input. (Please help us by translating this message into your local language). Happy reading! RSharma (WMF) MediaWiki message delivery (ચર્ચા) ૦૩:૦૧, ૨૧ જાન્યુઆરી ૨૦૨૦ (IST)

The 2030 movement strategy recommendations are here!
ફેરફાર કરોGreetings! We are pleased to inform that the 2030 movement strategy recommendations have been published on Meta-wiki. Over the last two years, our movement has worked tirelessly to produce these ideas to change our shared future. Many of you participated in the online conversations, hosted strategy salons, attended regional events, and connected with us in-person at Wikimania. These contributions were invaluable, and will help make our movement stronger for years to come.
The finished set of 10 recommendations emphasizes many of our core values, such as equity, innovation, safety, and coordination, while tasking us jointly to turn this vision into a reality. These recommendations clarify and refine the previous version, which was published in January this year. They are at a high strategic level so that the ideas are flexible enough to be adapted to different global and local settings and will allow us to navigate future challenges. Along with the recommendations, we have outlined 10 underlying principles, a narrative of change, and a glossary of key terms for better context.
The recommendations are available in numerous languages, including Arabic, German, Hindi, English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish for you to read and share widely. We encourage you to read the recommendations in your own time and at your own pace, either online or in a PDF. There are a couple of other formats for you to take a deeper dive if you wish, such as a one-page summary, slides, and office hours, all collected on Meta. If you would like to comment, you are welcome to do so on the Meta talk pages. However, please note that these are the final version of the recommendations. No further edits will be made. This final version of the recommendations embodies an aspiration for how the Wikimedia movement should continue to change in order to advance that direction and meet the Wikimedia vision in a changing world.
In terms of next steps, our focus now shifts toward implementation. In light of the cancellation of the Wikimedia Summit, the Wikimedia Foundation is determining the best steps for moving forward through a series of virtual events over the coming months. We will also be hosting live office hours in the next coming few days, where you can join us to celebrate the Strategy and ask questions! Please stay tuned, and thank you once again for helping to drive our movement forward, together. RSharma (WMF)

Wikisource Pagelist Widget: Wikisource Meetup (29th September 2020)
ફેરફાર કરોHello everyone,
We hope you are doing well!
We reached out to you a couple of weeks ago to share that Wikisource Pagelist Widget is now ready to be enabled to Wikisource. Since then, many language Wikisources have enabled the widget but many are yet to do so.
So, we have decided to organize a Wikisource Meetup to give a live demonstration on how to use the widget in both wikitext and visual modes. There will be some time for the participants to share their feedback and experience with the widget. We will also provide support in case some Wikisource communities are seeking help in enabling the widget.
The meetup will take place on 29 September 2020 at 9:30 AM UTC or 3 PM IST. Google Meet link for the meeting is: http://meet.google.com/khu-dfph-qsd
Looking forward to seeing the global Wikisource community connect amid these difficult times when physical meetings have not been taking place.
P.S. If you are planning to attend this meetup and are comfortable in sharing your email address then send us your confirmation in the form of a small email to sgill@wikimedia.org, this will help us in getting a sense of the number of people that are planning to show-up. We are aware that this time-zone is not convenient for everyone and more meetups can be organized in the future.

Regional Call for South Asia - Oct. 30
ફેરફાર કરોHi everyone. The time has come to put Movement Strategy into work and we need your help. We are inviting South Asian communities, Indian Wikimedians, and anyone else interested to join a region-focused conversation on Movement Strategy and implementation. Please join us on Friday Oct. 30 at 19.30 / 7:30 pm IST (Google Meet).
The purpose of the meeting is to get prepared for global conversations, to identify priorities for implementation in 2021, and to plan the following steps. There are 10 recommendations and they propose multiple 45 initiatives written over two years by many Wikimedians. It is now up to communities to decide which ones we should work on together in 2021, starting with local and regional conversations. Global meetings will take place later in November when we will discuss global coordination and resources. More information about the global events will be shared soon.
- What is work you’re already doing that is aligned with Movement Strategy?
- What are priorities for you in 2021?
- What are things we should all work on globally?
We would not be able to grow and diversify as a movement if communities from South Asia are not meaningfully involved in implementing the recommendations. Join the conversation with your questions and ideas, or just come to say hi. See you on Friday October 30.
