مشروع ويكي الصيانة

مرحبًا TOUMOU/أرشيف 6! تسرّنا دعوتك للمساهمة معنا في مشروع ويكي الصيانة، وهو مشروعٌ تعاونيٌّ يهدف إلى تحسين جودة المقالات الموجودة في ويكيبيديا العربية، بتنظيم مهامٍ دوريّة للصيانة. تحياتي لك نيابةً عن المساهمين في المشروع. ~~~~

تنبيه

السَلامُ عليكم، مُنير من بعد إذنك يُرجى التوقف عن إرسال الدعوات عبر أُوب، لدي بعض الأسئلة أطرحها حولَ الأسلوب الذي تتبعه، وشُكراً--علاء ^راسلني 08:00، 19 فبراير 2017 (ت ع م)

ما هو الأساس الذي تُرسل على أساسه الدعوات للمستخدمين؟ مثلاً هُناك مستخدمين مُتغيبين منذُ سنوات وأشهر طويلة! فما الداعي لإرسال هذه الرسائل لهم؟! هذا أولاً، وثانياً ومع احترامي إرسال دعوة كمية بهذا الشكل (حتى الآن أكثر من 500 رسالة) تحتاج لموافقة المُجتمع حسب عِلمي! تحياتي--علاء ^راسلني 08:02، 19 فبراير 2017 (ت ع م)

بالإضافة لذلك صفحة أحدث التغييرات مليئة منذُ الأمس بتعديلاتك، لم نعد نستطيع مُتابعة آخر التعديلات والتخريبات! وهذه المُهمة بما أنها بهذا الحجم أكثر من 500 رسالة كان لا بد من أن يقوم بها أحد البوتات! تحياتي--علاء ^راسلني 08:04، 19 فبراير 2017 (ت ع م)

أيضاً صفحة المشروع غير مُكتملة! وتوقيعك في القالب الذي ترسله للمستخدمين غير ظاهر! وملخص التعديل هوَ (clean up) وهذا خاطئ جداً!!--علاء ^راسلني 08:05، 19 فبراير 2017 (ت ع م)

آسف أنا @علاء: أعرف أنها تحتاج لموافقة المُجتمع --منير توزري (نقاش) 08:07، 19 فبراير 2017 (ت ع م)

إعتذر فأنا لا أعلم أن هذا سيسبب هذا الكام الكبير من المشاكل، هدفي الوحيد إيصال المعلمومة لأكبر عدد ممكن من المحررين --منير توزري (نقاش) 08:10، 19 فبراير 2017 (ت ع م)

زميلي @مُنير: لا داعي للاعتذار فأنا أعلم بنواياك الطيبة ، ولكن الخلل أنَّ إرسال هذا القالب كان يجب أن يكون للمستخدمين النشطيين فقط، لا لجميع المستخدمين (مستخدم متغيب منذ 3 سنوات، ما داعي إرسال الرسالة له؟)، وأيضاً كان من الأفضل إكمال صفحة المشروع بدايةً (مشروعك جداً مشكور عليه، فكرته رائعة)، وأخيراً قضية القالب نفسه، هل لاحظت أنَّ توقيعك غير ظاهر؟!--علاء ^راسلني 08:14، 19 فبراير 2017 (ت ع م)

دعوة باستخدام أوب

توقف لو سمحت عن بعث رسائل دعوة للمستخدمين في صفحة نقاشهم، يمكنك استخدام قالب:رسائل للمجتمع عوضاً عن ذلك. --Sami Lab (نقاش) 08:01، 19 فبراير 2017 (ت ع م)
