== Datasets out of date ==
 
−
Hello. It seems that the datasets page, although it claims to run every 2 days, is completely out of date: all the available zips are from April 2020 or November 2019 (and the full zip from May 2019). Is this a known problem? Is there a plan to address it? [[User:Julien Baley|Julien Baley]] ([[User talk:Julien Baley|talk]]) 23:17, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

:Indeed, it seems to have an issue with the dataset updating. I opened a [[phab:T261519|Phabricator ticket]] about this issue. [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 18:24, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I just tested, but my records are not published on Commons. My tests: on Firefox, then on Chrome, with 50, then with 1 expression (s), with license CC3.0-BY-SA and CC1.0. —[[User:Eihel|Eihel]] ([[User talk:Eihel|talk]]) 06:51, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[[File:LiLi April 2021 - Publish on Wikimedia Commons.png|thumb|Problème de publication sur Wikimedia Commons]]

My mic works with [https://mictests.com/ mictests.com], but [https://lingualibre.org/wiki/Special:RecordWizard the RecordWizard] doesn't pick anything up at the "check your microphone" stage. I've tried on both my phone and my laptop, and I can record sound in both cases, and I have the appropriate permissions enabled, but this particular website isn't detecting sounds.

If anyone uses the regularly updated [[user:Olafbot|Olafbot's]] lists of wanted words ([[List:Fra/Lemmas-without-audio-sorted-by-number-of-wiktionaries]], etc.), and spotted an item that should be removed without recording, you can use the brand new exclusion lists to remove it. For example on the list [[List:Fra/Lemmas-without-audio-sorted-by-number-of-wiktionaries]] there was the word "abandonar", which apparently doesn't belong to the contemporary French corpus. Having added it on the exclusion list (here: [[user:Olafbot/exclusion list/Fra]]) the bot knows this item should never appear in French lists it maintains, and [https://lingualibre.org/index.php?title=List:Fra/Lemmas-without-audio-sorted-by-number-of-wiktionaries&diff=619214&oldid=606068 removes it] during the next update.
 
  
−
Each "Lemmas without audio" list ({{Olafbot-wikt}}) has a corresponding exclusion list ({{Olafbot-exclusion}}). I hope it will help.
+
== Automatic categorization isn't documented. ==
  
−
Normally I would add a link to the exclusion list in a description of each lemmas list, but unfortunately, Lingua Libre engine doesn't allow adding any kind of comments or descriptions to lists, so this ad is the only way to spread a word about the new functionality. [[User:Olaf|Olaf]] ([[User talk:Olaf|talk]]) 09:54, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
+
So far as I can tell, this isn't documented: if, for user Foo, category <tt>Lingua Libre pronunciation by Foo</tt> exists on Commons, then all uploads will be categorized into that category. This is helpful! It's also easy to backfill after the fact using [[:commons:Help:Gadget-Cat-a-lot]]. I'm not sure where to document this, but it seems reasonable to do so ''somewhere''. [[User:Grendelkhan|Grendelkhan]] ([[User talk:Grendelkhan|talk]]) 16:26, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

:{{ping|Olaf}} Thank you so much for this useful new function!

cette semaine commence un projet menés par des étudiants des formations IARF-RODECO de l’Université Toulouse 3 - Paul Sabatier concernant le prototypage d’outils de patrouille. Je suis, assisté par Adélaïde Calais, le superviseur de ce projet. Les étudiants sont en informatique avec une spécialisation en intelligence artificielle. L’idée est de leur faire prototyper (voire développer) des outils pour aider la patrouille de Lingua Libre en détectant automatiquement toutes sortes de problèmes. Nous avons déjà identifier quelques problèmes : clics, grésillements, bruits parasites et mauvaises prononciations (libellés et enregistrements pas raccord).

This week, a project lead by student of University Toulouse 3 - Paul Sabatier is starting. It will be about the prototyping of patrolling tools. I supervise this project, assisted by Adélaïde Calais. The students study computer science with a specialization in Artificial Intelligence. The aim is to have them prototyping (or even developing) tools to help Lingua Libre's patrol, by automatically detecting any kind of mistake/error related to the files. We already identified a few types of mistakes: clicks, crackles, pops and labelling issues (wrong label/wrong language).

We need the community on two points :

# we need some recordings having issues, in order for the students to be able to work. If you already recorded them again, it is not a big deal, Commons has a file history. Don't hesitate to provide us the files that have or had problems.

Hi everyone, I just noticed again MediaWiki's [[:mw:Code of Conduct]] (2015) and Wikimedia Foundation's [[:foundation:Universal Code of Conduct]] (2021/02).

As far as I know, Lili.org and its community, so far, [https://lingualibre.org/index.php?search=Code+of+conduct has no Code of Conduct]. We may be ''implicitely'' binded by it or by some Wikimedia France's Code of Conduct, but it would be cleaner to ''explicitly'' adopt one and display it here, in written.

== Lingua Libre website should be more appealing to Language Learners ==
 
−
:''See also [https://forvo.com Forvo.com].''
 
−
It would be useful if LinguaLibre follows the example of Forvo to increase the number of language learners interested in the Project.
 
−
 
 
−
Forvo.com has a way of displaying the information that engage users and makes it very easy to find pronunciations.
 
−
 
 
−
For example, if someone wants to learn how to pronounce "Honoré de Balzac" in French, it would be faster to find the audio on Forvo than on LinguaLibre. Also, Forvo displays the data in a way more appealing to language learners:
 
−
* https://forvo.com/search/Honoré_de_Balzac/
 
−
* https://lingualibre.org/index.php?search=Honoré+de+Balzac

:Some people previously reported such "issue". There is a [[phab:T252319|ticket]] on Phabricator to keep this in mind. However, the priority is currently given to develop patrol tools for Lingua Libre and we do not expect to see major improvements related to the audio brosing in the coming months (at least if we have no more external developers). I think it is like this because Lingua Libre has been though so that it helps for recording, not for listening; the second is let to the other Wikimedia projects, mainly Wiktionaries et Wikidata.

::YES ! There are oral discussions and proposals in this direction, but LinguaLibre being a volunteers-based team, we are moving slowly. Forvo is a for-profit entity, it locks the copyright and resale of recordings made on its platform to the speaker-creator and to themselves, to then sell those recordings with a profit. They therefor have money and swift decision-making to sustain their UI/UX efforts. We are shorter on those sides.  --[[User:Yug|Yug]] ([[User talk:Yug|talk]]) 16:30, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

== Allow recording only in the user's Native Language to avoid passing "mispronunciations" to Wiktionary ==
 
−
 
 
−
I started a discussion on the German Wiktionary because some words on LinguaLibre are not available on the DeWikt. The German Community told me that LinguaLibre adds words into Commons, but the Bot only accepts audios from “few” trusted users using a filter.
 
−
 
 
−
The English and German Wiktionaries use a bot called "DerbethBot" to add audios from Commons. However, the English Wiktionary community asked to block Lingua Libre's recordings because there were non-native speakers recording audios and the Bot had no way to differentiate them from Native speakers. After the audios were introduced in the English Wiktionary they had to forbid adding audios from LinguaLibre:
 
−
 
 
−
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Beer_parlour/2020/July#Labeling_non-native_audio
 
−
 
 
−
I believe that it is necessary to avoid giving “mispronunciations” to Wictionaries. That is similar to vandalism on a Wiktionary if the reader doesn't know that it is hearing a bad pronunciation and believes that it is “native speaker”:
 
−
 
 
−
''Some suggestions:''
 
−
1) Would it be possible to name the audios files to specify if the speaker is a native or not? For example, if a French speaker records the word "maison"  it could be named '''"maison-fr-native.ogg"''' . If a language learner records the same word : '''"maison-fr-learner.ogg"'''
 
−
 
 
−
2) A radical way to address the issue would be to only allow to record in one's native language. Of course, users could change it, but strong warnings could be added and always remind people to record only their native language. Forvo seems to take this approach.
 
−
 
 
−
It might be valuable for Linguists to have recordings of non-native speakers to study their accent features in an L-2 Language. However, in my humble opinion the pronunciations added to Wiktionary should be only native speakers and bots should have a way to differentiate them.

:Hi, this depends on the Wikitionary policy, and it could be different from a language to another one. Anyway, it is already possible to select only recordings done by native speaker. To do that, the speaker has to fill the {{P|16}} property ith the value {{Q|15}} (see for example {{Q|466}}). Other values for {{P|16}} are given [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Q5|here]].

== [[commons:commons:structured data]] ==

I've been very pleased with LL's tooling, that does so much of the process of uploading to Commons, sensible naming, description-writing, and categorisation for me; however, I have an idea for an additional step LL could automate. This is in Commons' no-longer-so-new structured data section, which manifests (among other ways) as a tab on the file page.
 
−
 
 
−
As an example of what could be automatically added to a file's datastore, there is a property called 'audio transcription' which serves a similar role to Commons' TimedText subtitle functionality (silly example: [[commons:TimedText:051226-kakapo-billbooming.ogg.en.srt]]) but for shorter clips -- in other words, seemingly designed with applications like LinguaLibre in mind.
 
−
 
 
−
Since these are of the so-called 'monolingual text' datatype, the source language can be specified (or where not part of the main set of languages Wikimedia uses, the special code 'mis' is used and 'language of work or name' used as a qualifier) at the same time as the actual text that is being spoken, which LL has access to since the audio file started out as a text prompt!

== "How to use Lingua Libre for your language learning" ==

I recently found a "new" way to benefit from the sounds on Lingua Libre. I would suggest that it could be advertised on the Lingua Libre main website and on the Wikipedia in French/English:
 
−
* [[:en:wp:GoldenDict|GoldenDict]] is a FOSS Dictionary application very valuable for language learners.
 
−
 
 
−
A  way to benefit from Lingua Libre recordings is to download the datasets, unzip them and "load" the sounds on GoldenDict (as Sound Directories. [https://i.imgur.com/9avJDgS.png Screenshot here]). In such a way, users have easily an offline "Pronunciation Dictionary". It is very easy to do. Here is an [https://i.imgur.com/axRHruk.png screenshot] of how it looks to GoldenDict the French word "fuir". Another example [https://i.imgur.com/Rq0nQCt.png here].
 
−
 
 
−
Lingua Libre sounds can be used with GoldenDict OFFLINE. That is a huge advantage in developing countries, where language learners often do not have reliable internet connection.
 
−
 
 
−
''It would be valuable to create a description on the Lingua Libre website about'' '''"How to use Lingua Libre sounds for your language learning"''' .

:1) '''Reuse of datasets :''' Yes ! Dataset download and reuse must be showcasted and strengthened. I think a "Reuses gallery" page could be created, with screenshot and minimal how-to for GoldenDict, Anki and others.
 
−
:2) '''Anki:''' You are the 4th or 5th contributor to rise the need for an Anki add-on. We need to do something on this side, yes. It's more than 1~2 days work and too big for a volunteer work, so we need to apply for a grant. I'am looking in and mapping our options at the moment ({{tl|Grants table}}). At one point we have to jump in and design a project, yes.

:Hello {{ping|Fredericknoronha}} and welcome to Lingua Libre. I imported {{Q|700683}} (gom) as it was not on Lingua Libre yet. On Lingua Libre, dialects are treated the same way as languages. You can create an element for your dialect on Wikidata (example for [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q35359 auvergnat dialect]) and tell us once it is ready, so that we can import it on Lingua Libre with an admin tool. You can also directly create an element for your dialect on Lingua Libre, following the steps described at [[Special:MyLanguage/Help:Add_a_new_language|Help:Add a new language]] and taking example of {{Q|1186}}.

== Feedback about Lingua Libre by Professor Carol Genetti, PhD ==
 
−
 
 
−
'''Dear Members of Lingua Libre,
 
−
'''
 
−
I am pleased to share a message from Professor [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carol_Genetti Carol Genetti], a linguist and leading expert in endangered languages.  Professor Genetti is author of one of the best books in the field of Linguistics called "How Languages Work". Her vast knowledge and experience are extremely valuable and after reviewing Lingua Libre she said:
 
−
 
 
−
''Thank you for contacting me and letting me know about this initiative. It is an interesting idea. I especially like the multilingual menus -- very helpful.''
 
−
 
 
−
''Are you aware of [https://www.endangeredlanguages.com/ this website], hosted by the University of Hawaii (and, I believe, funded by Google). So one thing that occurs to me is the proliferation of such sites. How will people in an endangered-language community find out about their options, and then make an informed choice about which of these online resources will be best over time for their communities? Should such efforts cross-reference each other?''
 
−
 
 
−
''My second thought has to do with longevity. It takes a significant commitment to support a site like this over time. The challenge is having someone who can keep such sites funded, working, organized, relevant, and engaging users over time. How will you make sure that the data will be available in 10, 50, 150 years? Maybe you get that automatically by being associated with Wikipedia. If so, state that. Also, there should be a clear statement of how such data might be used, and by whom, so speakers know that if they record a wordlist, someone might use if for some purpose without their permission (is that right?).
 
−
''
 
−
''I'm sorry to have to bring a down-to-earth message to the inspiration and passion for endangered languages that has clearly fueled this work, but having seen other initiatives stumble in this way, I wanted to be sure that you are thinking about this. Speakers will be entrusting you with such valuable pieces of their lives and their cultures. How will you safeguard this over time? Let people know.
 
−
''
 
−
''Those issues aside, here are a couple of other comments:''
 
−
 
 
−
* There should be a statement targeted for speakers of endangered languages - why would they want to do this? What is the value for them and their communities? What will happen to the recordings? etc.''
 
−
* Will you provide speakers with suggestions for what vocabulary to record, e.g. greetings, colors, verb forms?''
 
−
* It would be helpful if it was clear from the large list of languages which ones have recordings. Maybe put those in a different color font?''
 
−
* It would be helpful to include translations of the words into one of the world's major languages or the national language. Otherwise, someone's grandkids coming to this in 30 years will not know what the words mean.''
 
−
* Do you want to move beyond single words to a piece of connected discourse, such as a short poem or story, a song, or the reading of some common text (such as a sentence from the UN Declaration for Linguistic Rights)?''
 
−
* Should there be a means to flag inappropriate content?''
 
−
 
 
−
''I hope that you find this helpful. And I'm so glad you liked my book! It is lovely to hear that people have found it helpful.''

:Hey, this is some interesting feedback.
 
−
:* "What will happen to the recordings?": Our homepage lacks such important information. We should plan a redesign for 2022 (inspired by the homepage of [https://commonvoice.mozilla.org/ Common Voice]?) so that we finally have a homepage that properly explains what Lingua Libre is and can do.
 
−
:* "Suggestions of things to record?": This already exists. They're called Lists. We have some pending improvements on that matter (easier to find and contribute to, etc.)
 
−
:* "Show which languages have recordings": The datasets page could help, but I guess it would be interesting to put that on an easy-to-find page (again, like [https://commonvoice.mozilla.org/fr/languages Common Voice's languages page]?)
 
−
:* "Include translations of the words into one of the world's major languages or the national language": we only support "transcription" for now.
 
−
:** How could we even "link" the recordings to translations? (Lexemes? Plain text?)
 
−
:** Who would have to do that? (the locutor? a dedicated team of contributors?)
 
−
:** Where would it be done? (in the RecordWizard?)
 
−
:** -> That's an interesting thing to think about, but might be slightly out of scope right now
 
−
:* "Sentences, stories, songs...?": Yes, indeed. The Record Wizard is already able to do that (with some config tweaks that have to be done by the locutor), but it would be great to streamline this further. Dedicated UI, ability to record an audiobook (or Wikipedia, Wikisource, Wikinews article) as a mixture of sentences that can be stored locally before being all merged together into one audio file sent to Commons, ability for multiple contributors to work on the same book/article... That's something we should also discuss with the [https://librivox.org/ Librivox] folks: they use Audacity so far, but they might be interested in a tool that's better suited to their needs.
 
−
:* "flag inappropriate content?": My insight is focused on technical stuff. This sounds more like some editorial guidelines that would have to be debated by the community.
 
−
:* "'''longevity'''?": Should Lingua Libre vanish tomorrow, the audio recordings are not lost. They're all stored on Wikimedia Commons, and that makes them as "immortal" as files stored on hard disks, SSDs, CDs or magnetic bands and mirrored half a dozen times around the world can be. However, I can't say much about our Wikibase, which, at the current time, '''is the only place where all the recordings and locutor-related metadata is stored'''. That's a serious single point of failure. There are no dumps and therefore no mirrorring. We'll definitely have to discuss it with Wikimedia France and the Tech Team.

* Question 1: How do we handle mispelling ? I assume renaming ALL THREE of the [[Q709231]]'s label AND Property:P3 'recording' AND Wikimedia file [[:File:LL-Q150_(fra)-fleur_(Beat_Ruest)-Ingenieur.wav]] rename. Is that ok or will it break something ?

: Question 1: it is a good start. I guess, we need to fix it both on Lingua Libre and on Wikimedia Commons
 
−
: Question 2: you speak about categories on Wikimedia Commons? If so, I guess a bot can do it (Lingua Libre Bot or another one).
 
−
: Question 3: actually the speaker is identified as "fleur (Beat Ruest)". Only one locutor of Beat Ruest can use the nickname "fleur".

:Bonjour [[User:BamLifa|BamLifa]], si un même locuteur enregistre le même mot alors l'enregistrement précédent sera écrasé (un même locuteur ne peut enregistrer qu'une seule fois le même mot). En revanche, rien n'empêche l'enregistrement d'un même mot par plusieurs locuteurs et locutrices différentes, c'est même un des objectifs de Lingua Libre : mettre en lumière la diversité des prononciations.

:Thanks VIGNERON for finding them and cleaning it. Now what to do with recording items that use the doublon language item (for example with [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Q52071|Duala]]). I think we must modify {{P|4}} for all recording items so that languages are not counted twice and also to clean up the database (there are also transcription problems for items listed in the Duala example).

::Thank you {{ping|VIGNERON}} for pointing these out. As you can see, most of them were not created manually but using the tool (the pages wheighted circa 4kB, with labels in many languages). It seems that the Lingua Importer tool has (or had?) a problem, but I could not reproduce it (trying to import languages that are already in LL wikibase).<br/> During last summer's hackathon we talked a bit about languages in our wikibase, but I can't remember why we need to have language elements in our Wikibase, and not just use the existing base of WikiData 🤔 — '''[[User:WikiLucas00|WikiLucas]]''' [[User talk:WikiLucas00|(🖋️)]] 23:23, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

== New property: translation ==

Hello, I've created {{P|38}} to be used in case there is no writing in the recording language but instead a translation in the vehicular language. See for example what I did [https://lingualibre.org/index.php?title=Q212431&type=revision&diff=743039&oldid=191330 here] and [https://lingualibre.org/index.php?title=Q58994&type=revision&diff=743044&oldid=580313 there]. Do you agree with that? Any comment? [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 16:33, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
 
−
:It's a good idea! Many users tend to add a translation as they find it important for other people to have. It will also be handy for cases like your second example, where we only have the translation but not the transcription of the source language: we will be able to query the base to see all audios of a language that have a translation. — '''[[User:WikiLucas00|WikiLucas]]''' [[User talk:WikiLucas00|(🖋️)]] 23:28, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

::I am thinking about a way to populate automatically this property via the Record Wizard. Currently, it seems that the Record Wizard populates {{P|18}} when something is written between brackets (see {{Q|1685}} for example but I have not checked recently). So, if we modify the Record Wizard code, it is possible to recognize this is a translation in another language and so to populate {{P|38}}. But I would like to be sure to propose the best way to do it before asking for such development. The idea is to be managed automatically (or at least not completely manually).

: {{u|marreromarco}} Thank you for your suggestions. However, I have some reservations about "Add function to "Request" a Pronunciation to Native Speakers" at this current stage for two reasons. First, this will require quite a bit of moderation to correct requests for grammar and spelling (e.g. HASBAND) as well as remove terrible requests. This will place a large burden on a few users and can easily lead to questionable decisions by moderators. Second, Forvo is flooded with requests that are either overly specific (e.g. "He came back from abyss and won the tie.") and, therefore, likely benefit only one user. IMHO, Rdrg109 proposal to focus on providing pronunciations for entries on the various wiktionaries is a better approach to building up the LL at this point. It will provide a solid foundation for users to find any word in LL. It might be a better time to open up LL to general requests once this project is completed and the community has grown.

== How to get the city  country label in SPARQL ==

:''See also [[Help:SPARQL]].''

I'm working on an Anki extension for LL, but I'm having a little trouble writing the sparql query. In short, I want to be able to get the city and country for a recording in LL. However, when I query P14, I get the link to the item instead of 'residence': {'type': 'literal', 'value': 'Q142'} or 'residence': {'type': 'literal', 'value': 'Q142'}. Instead I hope to get city:"" and country "France" for the first query city:"Paris" and country:"France" for the second one. Any ideas?

== Anki Extension Release ==
 
−
 
 
−
I just released [https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/124265771 Lingua Libre and Forvo Addon]. It has a number of advanced options to improve search results and can run either as a batch operation or on an individual note.
 
−
 
 
−
By default, it first checks Lingua Libre and, if there are no results on Lingua Libre, it then checks Forvo.  To run as a pure Lingua Libre extension, you will need to set "disable_Forvo" to <code>True</code> in your configuration section.

== Results of Coverage Test of French Lemma and Non-Lemma forms is English Wiktionary ==
 
−
 
 
−
While playing around with generating lists for pronunciation from Wiktionary, I decided to run a few tests on the current coverage of French lemma and non-lemma forms in English Wiktionary. I choose French because it is the largest datasets in LL.
 
−
 
 
−
Current Coverage of French in Lingua Libre
 
−
* Total French Entries in Lingua Libre by a native speaker: 233 982
 
−
* Unique French Entries in Lingua Libre by a native speaker: 154 358
 
−
* Percentage of overlap: 34%
 
−
* Term with the greatest number of pronunciations: "blanc" with 40
 
−
 
 
−
Current Coverage of [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Category:French_lemmas Category:French lemmas]
 
−
* Total entries in Category:French lemmas: 84 482
 
−
* Pronounced entries: 50 917
 
−
* Entries with pronunciation: 33 565
 
−
* Coverage Percentage: 60.27%
 
−
 
 
−
Current Coverage of [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Category:French_non-lemma_forms Category:French non-lemma forms]
 
−
* Total entries in Category:French non-lemma forms: 29 1225
 
−
* pronounced entries: 26 791
 
−
* Entries with pronunciation: 264 434
 
−
* Coverage Percentage: : 9.20%
 
−
 
 
−
For me, there are several lessons to be drawn.
 
−
# First, there has been amazing growth on LL. Covering 60.27% percent is a real achievement.
 
−
# The overlap percentage is quite small overall.
 
−
# There needs to be a clearer sense of when LL should stop requesting pronunciations for a certain term because 40 pronunciations of "blanc" seems a bit excessive.
 
−
#  A need exists to continue pro-actively targeting entries in Wiktionary that are not in Lingua Libre. Currently, 297 999 French lemma and non-lemma forms  require pronunciations.
 
−
# Generating lists from Wiktionary and checking coverage is not as hard as I thought.
 
−
# Lingua Libre has almost caught up with Forvo in the number of French pronunciations (233 982 vs 254, 703). Overall, Lingua Libre has shown amazing and healthy progress in a very short period of time. I'm excited about these results.

:{{Ping|Languageseeker}} This investigation is pretty cool. (I'm not sure i understand all your numbers yet, but i will read again when back on my PC). Its quite nice to see we are reaching Forvo level for our lead language. It's possible we have more unique words than forvo since we have [[user:Olafbot]] actively guiding and pushing us on that path.
 
−
:On Lili we have chosen to be a learning AND linguistic diversity audio database. When you account for gender, regional accents, age, voice type, having 40 french audios for a word is still 400+ voices short.
 
−
:Also, all contributors are not able to contribute audio perfect files due to various shortcomings (hardware, no recording room, no noose cancelling system, etc). We lack proper rating and review system. It's on our [slow] roadmap tho. 😉

== Manually-coded languages ==
 
−
 
 
−
I came across [[:meta:LinguaLibre/SignIt]] recently (via betawiki) and was wondering if manually-coded languages would be appropriate for this as well? These are languages in sign modality, but strongly tied to a spoken/written language; they usually adopt the grammar of the nonmanual language, choosing instead to simply transpose the vocabulary. This means they are most often used in application-specific and pidgin contexts (Pidgin Sign for English and diver's signs are examples). In particular, I am interested in ''toki pona luka'', a manual form of {{q|338540}}. Since the vocab is the same as spoken/written toki pona, there are a minimal number of lexemes overall, so having a complete set of signs is easily achievable. Manually-coded languages including ''toki pona luka'' are generally not given a separate ISO 639 code since they are in effect equivalent to scripts. Would this cause a problem for the infrastructure as currently designed? [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 05:56, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

−
Hello [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]],
 
−
 
 
−
I understand "manually coded languages" as synonymous to "signed languages", am I correct?<br />If there is no distinct ISO for the signed language, we could still:
 
−
* Create a new wikidata item without ISO, which will be used as identifier by LinguaLibre infrastructure
 
−
* Use the spoken/write language ISO, and create lists of words all suffixed by <kbd>(signed)</kbd>.
 
−
Either of those solutions could work.
 
−
 
 
−
If you have some knowledge of signed ''toki pona luka'' please let me know. We are adding features on Lingualibre and SignIt in order to be able to record video of signed words by late 2022. We are almost there. If you would like to record some basic signed words to share with the world, then let me know. [[User:Yug|Yug]] ([[User talk:Yug|talk]]) 20:58, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
 
−
 
 
−
: Signed languages and manually-coded languages share similarities (the manual modality) and differences (since sign languages are 'native' to the signed modality, they use it more fully, having complete deixis and time-reference systems, use of handshape classifiers, etc.) -- 'luka' means 'hand'/'five', so that's the part of the name that indicates the manual modality, but otherwise it's just garden-variety toki pona. I am interested in using SignIt to record this vocab, yes. The '(signed)' suffix seems like a good way to do it. [[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]] ([[User talk:Arlo Barnes|talk]]) 13:16, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
 
−
::[[User:Arlo Barnes|Arlo Barnes]]: We increasingly have [[:commons:Commons:Bots/Requests/Dragons_Bot_(2)|tools]] to update and correct sign language recordings, so the suffix <code>(signed)</code> or the solution we choose appears incorrect, we still can correct it later using that bot.
 
−
::I would encourage you to first train yourself and learn that manually-coded language over the coming months. Indeed, we still have a very last bug within our video recording chain, which makes rightful videos appears as audio on Commons. We expect to solve this last issue this fall (September or October ?). So for now, I encourage you to rest well, reload energy, to get ready to record later this year. Maybe identify near you some suitable place with elegant monochrome wall to film over or consider building yourself a low-cost recording studio,. Etc. We can discuss it to keep it low cost and effective if you are interested, as I'm also looking for such walls and/or considering building one for myself.

Is the Record Wizard not working for anyone else?

My mic works with mictests.com, but the RecordWizard doesn't pick anything up at the "check your microphone" stage. I've tried on both my phone and my laptop, and I can record sound in both cases, and I have the appropriate permissions enabled, but this particular website isn't detecting sounds. Is anyone else having this kind of problem? Grendelkhan (talk) 23:43, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello User:Grendelkhan,
I just received a second such report. User also checked mictests.com sucessfully.
On Firefox, Lingua Libre recording studio step 4, the microphone is allowed (we see the red microphone image on the left of the URL address). But after clicking the record button, no recording occurs.
  • Mictests on other site : successful.
  • Device: Notebook
  • OS: ?
  • Browser: Firefox, Chrome.
  • User: User:Akamycoco.
  • Languages affected: all.
  • Dates : Worked on February 28. Stopped working on February 29.
Let's starts an investigation. Could you let me know your OS and precise web browser version ? (Help > About Chrome or similar)
Let me know as well if you have basic developer skills to Right-click on the staled page > Inspect > Console : are there any error message ? Yug (talk) 07:55, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
My laptop is using Google Chrome 122.0.6261.94 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Linux (Debian Testing). No error messages in the console when I attempt the recording. My phone is using Chrome 122.0.6261.90 on Android 14 on a Pixel 5a. It does seem to work on Firefox 115.7.0esr (64-bit) on my laptop. (I really should have checked that before.) So maybe this is solely a Chrome problem? Grendelkhan (talk) 16:30, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Automatic categorization isn't documented.

So far as I can tell, this isn't documented: if, for user Foo, category Lingua Libre pronunciation by Foo exists on Commons, then all uploads will be categorized into that category. This is helpful! It's also easy to backfill after the fact using commons:Help:Gadget-Cat-a-lot. I'm not sure where to document this, but it seems reasonable to do so somewhere.

TLDR: Large amount of users reporting failure to upload at step 5 : Grendelkhan, Culex, XANA000, Ardzun (Indonesian languages), Penn Zero MSSJ, User:Univòc64 (Whistled Occitan) and User:Akamycoco (Taiwanese languages). This likely only tip of iceberg. Only few users were able to record in May, with atypically low number of recordings. Indonesia workshop with ~15 participants critically affected. Investigation ongoing. Hugo en résidence (talk) 14:20, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

I can record words, but uploading them to Commons fails. The JavaScript console has the following message:

This is not my IP address shown in the error message, and whatismyip confirms that I'm not behind a proxy. The Global block request is here. Is this affecting anyone else? I lost a heap of recordings. Grendelkhan (talk) 22:26, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Uploads are failing for me today too, even though I am recording with my account. Culex (talk) 15:04, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

I can record, but i couldn’t uploaded until today. I was able to upload once yesterday, but after that I couldn't upload any more. Ardzun (talk) 06:04, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
I guess I'm not the only one who's been trying for weeks but could not publish audio after 1 May. Hope someone can fix it. Penn Zero MSSJ (talk) 20:54, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
User:Univòc64 (Whistled occitan) and User:Akamycoco (Taiwanese languages) also reported issues.
It seems time to add a sitenotice warning. Hugo en résidence (talk) 14:07, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
In may we have mostly : 556 recordings by 7 users on May 1th, 174 recordings on May 11th (Austin Zhang), then nothing.
If we compare with known monthly recordings, our average months recently was 30k audios, the lowest ones were 5k audios, May 2024 is heading toward 1200 audios or 5% of the average month and 20% of the lowest months. Something weird is going on indeed.

Fixed

Both IP ranges 2001:41D0:0:0:0:0:0:0/32 and 2001:41D0:0:0:0:0:0:0/33 were subject to global Wikimedia block at one point (see Global ban range_2001:41D0:0:0:0:0:0:0/32). Following our request, the ban have been reconfigured and uploads from LinguaLibre are possible again. Yug (talk) 10:38, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

I can record and upload since yesterday with my account, so that seems fixed. But it seems the stats are still not updated. Culex (talk) 12:08, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

Logs

For references, I investigated the relevant block logs and uploads logs for May 2024.
Conclusion: the uploads collapse is coherent with the IP Ban. Still, given bug reports from Akamycoco in *March* and 咽頭べさ on step 4, I suspects other bugs are lingering around.

Kinyarwanda language representation

I'm Robert RUGAMBA from Rwanda and i belong to Wikimedia Rwanda as a volunteer and event organizer. I'm exited to explore this platform of lingua libre and i wish my local languages to be add and represented. the wikidata rabel is: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q33573

Thanks. Annick green

Check-green.svg Done This language was already on Lingualibre as Kinyarwanda (Q285). If you open Special:RecordWizard, at step 2, add it to your list of known languages. Please type in « Kinyarwanda », «Ikinyarwanda » and you should find it. Only user who have declared to know Kinyarwanda can record in Kinyarwanda. Yug (talk) 16:50, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Rename my pseudonym

Hello. I've renamed my account on wikimedia sites but can't log in directly from this username here. Do i have something to do ? My old username is ElsaBester and the new one is L'embellie. Thanks !

Hello L'embellie,
I may ping WikiLucas00, but I think we don't currently have solution for your issue.
We are phasing out this wiki, we hope to release a new Lingualibre this winter or early 2025. So this issue will be irrelevant by then. Yug (talk) 20:00, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
Hey there @ElsaBester & Yug . Sorry I don't have a solution, but I found this in the Chat Room's archives: LinguaLibre:Chat_room/Archives/2023#Update_my_username. Good luck — WikiLucas (🖋️) 18:46, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
Hello @ElsaBester you may also look at my latest reply on User talk:Yug, it's not a great option but maybe you'll want to try it. All the best — WikiLucas (🖋️) 12:24, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

Two French words that are impossible to record

Hi,

Two words are impossible to record (even before uploading): esclavesse and scribesse (all my attempts with other words work). Avatea (talk) 18:49, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
