(2024). "The paper outlines the collaboration between the National Library of the Czech Republic and Wikimedia since 2006, focusing on linking authority records with Wikipedia articles and training librarians and users. By 2023, the National Library provided most of its databases under a CC0 license, launched a "Wikimedians in Residence" program, and collaborated on projects involving linked data and using authority records in Wikidata. This partnership has enhanced their cooperation for mutual benefit, identifying key factors for their successful long-term collaboration." How have you modelled my gender? Reconstructing the history of gender representation in Wikidata by Melis, B., Fioravanti, M., Paolini, C., & Metilli, D. (2024). "The paper traces the evolution of gender representation in Wikidata, showing how the community has moved from a binary interpretation of gender to a more inclusive model for trans and non-binary identities. The Wikidata Gender Diversity project (WiGeDi) timeline highlights the significant changes influenced by external historical events and the community's increased understanding of gender complexity."

• A request for comment is open to discuss whether admins should be advised to warn users rather than issue no-warning blocks to those who have posted promotional content outside of article space.

Technical news

• The Nuke feature also now provides links to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions.

Arbitration

• Following the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections, the following editors have been elected to the Arbitration Committee: CaptainEek, Daniel, Elli, KrakatoaKatie, Liz, Primefac, ScottishFinnishRadish, Theleekycauldron, Worm That Turned.

Copyright issues in “quote” parameter of a cite template

Hi!

You recently rejected a copyvio revdel request (raised against an edit I made) at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Electrolytic_corrosion&oldid=1268386141

However, I’d like to make sure that my reasoning/understanding of wiki policy is correct.

My position is summarized in my response to the editor who submitted the copyvio-revdel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:1AmNobody24#c-Tooki-20250108203500-Electrolytic_corrosion

Could I impose on you to review what I wrote there, and to clarify whether external text copied into the “quote” parameter of a cite template constitutes plagiarism, and what guidance applies? The ‘cite web’ template documentation doesn’t address this question whatsoever, nor does the general Wikipedia documentation on copyright.

Thank you and regards, — tooki (talk) 00:21, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
