hi,
does anybody have / know about a partnership for sign language, either
for promotianal videos, or "standard" videos for wikimedia commons?
one of the few companies doing this i know is

Finally :) I think that this position is more than necessary and that
it should be a permanent one.
BTW, I think that it would be good to include in job descriptions a
need for creation and active managing of a (relevant) volunteer group.
Such work is (explicitly or implicitly) a part of some posi

The Hebrew Wikipedia community decided that Southpark episode named "Chef
Aid" is not worthy of an article, not because of it's content, but because
it is an unimportant episode.
I now wonder. This episode is available so far in the following wiki
Languages: English, French, Hungarian and Russian.
Might I add, [[en:Simpsons_Roasting_on_an_Open_Fire]], which exists in 16
languages, was deleted in the Hebrew Wikipedia.
proper disclosure: I was involved in writing the above article.

Not never. People come and go, people change their opinions.

Hi folks,
I wrote here earlier about the process we're imagining for this
project; I'm going to take a minute now to write about the substance
of the work. This isn't a direct response to any of the comments made
here thus far, but I hope it'll indirectly speak to some of the issues
you've brough

The question is - shouldn't there be one set of standards for all
Wikipedias? I think it is "unfair" that I can read about Simpsons episodes
in the English Wikipedia, while those how speak Hebrew cannot.

I do think that there should be one set of standards for all
languages. But it may be hard to enforce it on an existing community.

Right. Milos' point is a good one, and should be written up carefully
in all of the job descriptions for this particular project -- and
probably all of the job descriptions in general for the Foundation.
"Must be willing" doesn't seem quite strong enough for making the
point that this position has

I could use a revision history and list of related discussions for
this conversation. [perhaps a mailing list isn't the best or
highest-visibility venue, considering the audience]
Where else is this conversation taking place?
Are past discussions of high-priority questions relevant?
