Personal acquaintances – Wikimania 2016 in Esino Lario (original) (raw)

From Wikimania 2016 • Esino Lario, Italy

Project leaflet at Wikimania 2014

Development of participants and confirmations since 2008.

The WikiProject Personal Acquaintances connects Wikipedians who have met in real life by a database system logging confirmations of users who have met another user as physical human beings.

Quick How-to guide

  1. Go to de:Special:Preferences and set the language to your preferred one.
  2. Go to de:Spezial:Einstellungen#mw-prefsection-gadgets (Section "Veränderung der Oberfläche") and check the box at "Erweiterte Benutzeroberfläche für Persönliche Bekanntschaften aktivieren, um Bestätigungen hier vornehmen zu können." (this is the only text that has no translation yet).
  3. Go to de:Wikipedia:Persönliche Bekanntschaften/neue Anfragen (it will be in English if you followed step 1) and register yourself. Then talk to confirmed participants at meetings and ask them to verify your person & username.
    • Once you have got confirmations by three users you can start confirming other participants on the same page.
    • (optional) Post your username into this list to receive bot-messages on your talk page for the confirmations you receive.
    • Users that have been confirmed can, and should, confirm other users that they have met personally in real life. There is no value or assessment involved. The relationship of users to each other (sympathy, antipathy, ménage à trois or friendship) does not matter, only the pure fact if you met a real person owning the user account.
