== General issues + issues with Odia and Asian writing systems ==
:{{Done}}, all issue tracked on phabricator or explained below. Ready to archive. [[User:Yug|Yug]] ([[User talk:Yug|talk]]) 23:22, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
I loved the current version! Truly admire the changes you all have made over time.
I have also done a few recordings in my own language Odia to check for any error. Below are a few:

# '''Tag already recorded items ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T212580 T212580]):''' When a word has already been recorded and has been uploaded on Commons, does is not make sense to show it as a flag instead of letting any user to upload it directly?
# '''Add custom commons categories ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T201135 T201135]):''' Also, different languages have different additional categories which Lingua Libre does not let one to add. For instance, I generally add a user category to know how many audio files I have uploaded. For the files recorded using Lingua Libre, I don't see an option to add that optional category.
# '''Remove duplicated words (in same session: explanation below ; across time: [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T212580 T212580]):''' If I am adding a wordlist before recording, is that possible to keep only one word if the same word is used multiple times? This would save some time for the uploader.
# '''Monitor suspect cracking sound in audios ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T201136 T201136]):''' There is a bit of crackling sound that is heard while monitoring the recorded words. Any particular reason?
# '''Some words fails anyway ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T212584 T212584]):''' Even though I am correctly pronouncing every word, I see a lot of red-labelled words.
# '''Allow click-play-listen while recording ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T212583 T212583]):''' While recording, I cannot check how the recording sounds like. I can only choose to re-record after hearing the recorded sound. Otherwise even having that option is of no use.
# '''Remove underline ([https://github.com/lingua-libre/LinguaRecorder/commit/c48d2e6f6cb31acef8a39245bab1eccc5dbdb969 done]):''' While recording each word is seen as a green button and during the recording the word is underlined. This works well for Latin-based scripts. However for my script, Odia, and even many other Asian languages, this is a problem as we have diacritics and accent marks below the character. It becomes too hard at times to read when underlined. Also, the light green color and a white background is not accessible to people with corrections or color blindness. Maybe black background with white text will create more contrast and make it easier to read.
# '''Last word cannot be re-recorded (explanation below):''' When you reach the last word of a batch and want to re-record that word, it doesn't allow you to click on the word button and re-record.

Also, requesting to add the Warang Citi (used for Ho language) and Ol Chiki (used for Santali language).

Thank you much again. I would really love to contribute more myself, and involve other community members. --[[User:Psubhashish|Psubhashish]] ([[User talk:Psubhashish|talk]]) 07:21, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
:Hi!
:First of all, thanks for your feedbacks, that's really helpful. Here are some details about your remarks:
:# In my opinion, it is interesting to have several records of the same word by different users, the naming convention takes this into account to avoid records to be overridden by another user. But as I'm not sure I understood this point very well, don't hesitate to clarify it if my answer is mistaken.
:# [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T201135 T201135]
:# If I have correctly understood your point, that's already the case. You can't add duplicate words in the same record batch (if you try to do so, the second one will be dismissed).
:# It's just a small file-loading issue, it will be fixed soon, see [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T201136 T201136]
:# This is a major issue I'm already aware of. In some cases (~ 1 word out of 100), for some unknown reason, MediaWiki is mistaken in taking WAV files for executable files, so it refuses them...
:# I'll try to add a way to listen the records while still in the recording studio.
:# I wasn't aware of that particularities, I'll remove the underline. I'm not so fond of the white text on black, but I'll try to find something more accessible.
:# Hum, this works well with me. When you have recorded the last word, the record automatically cuts off, did you click on the big red button to enable it again?
:I've imported the Ho language, which was missing from Lingua Libre, but the two writing system you've mentionned are part of Unicode and should works, am I wrong?

== Erreur de téléversements ==
Salut,
je rencontre un problème assez curieux. Lorsque j'ai fini de m'enregistrer, je choisis de publier sur Commons et là, une partie de mes enregistrements sont publiés et puis ça se met à planter. Après quoi, je ne peux plus en ré-upload pour une certaine période de temps. Que dois-je faire ? [[User:Lepticed7|Lepticed7]] ([[User talk:Lepticed7|talk]]) 21:17, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
:Salut,
:Désolé du délai de réponse, j'étais loin de mon ordinateur pour les fêtes.
:Est-ce que ça t'es arrivé de nouveau depuis le 29 ? Si oui je vois deux possibilité : soit tu t'es fait déconnecté de Lingua Libre en plein milieu du versement, soit un filtre sur Commons bloque les uploads pour toi pour une raison mystérieuse. Si ça arrive de nouveau, peux-tu essayer d'ouvrir lingualibre dans un nouvel onglet, et vérifier dans cet autre onglet si tu es bien connecté ? Si le problème est là (mais ça devrait plus arriver normalement), une simple reconnexion dans l'onglet d'à côté suffit pour pouvoir ensuire reprendre le versement des enregistrements échoués.

== Menu and naming ==
:See also [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]]
Hello the team, from start I've been confused by the name "Record Wizard". A wizard for me is a man doing positive magic in middle age. ''Recording Studio'' or ''Recording Room'' would seems more expected and readable. [[User:Yug|Yug]] ([[User talk:Yug|talk]]) 16:33, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
:There is everything fine with word "wizard" in this context, it has more than one meaning. See https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/wizard : "A computer program or script used to simplify complex operations" Wizard for me fits better than Studio or Room in my opinion. [[User:KaMan|KaMan]] ([[User talk:KaMan|talk]]) 16:58, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
::It's a technolect, a word known by a minor community, aka "geeks" ^^. [[User:Yug|Yug]] ([[User talk:Yug|talk]]) 18:41, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
::: No, it's not technolect of geeks, it's well established element of user interfaces representing step-by-step process. Just google for "wizard user interface". I don't know why you don't know this term, but it is well known in English when it comes to describing user interfaces in computing. As you can read at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizard_(software) the term is used by Microsoft for about 28 years and Microsoft definetly is not for geeks but for everyone.

::::We have to consider organizers and speakers with low English literacy, and we do have them.

They will likely use ur UI in one of the 8 Macro languages (cn, es, en, fr, ru, pt, hi, ar). Our UI language is a barrier.

::::: I don't agree with you, UI should follow established UI guidelines. If all other software names step-by-step process by word "wizard" then we should do it as well. From the two words proposed by you "Room" is completly not recognizable in computing as name for wizard-like creator, and "Studio" is reserved for big, complex products like Visual Studio. Our "Record Wizard" is lightweight step-by-step creator and as such should be named like similar processes in similar software.

== Word frequencies for prioritizing, UNILEX and licence ==

Would it make sense to prioritize the data entry, so that users would start recording the most frequent words of a language, and then proceed to the less important words? If you’d like to do this, here’s the [https://github.com/unicode-org/unilex/tree/master/data/frequency word frequencies for 1000+ languages], mostly from [https://github.com/googlei18n/corpuscrawler crawled corpora]. Language codes are [[:en:IETF BCP47|IETF BCP47]]. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 08:56, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
:This would be indeed useful. To be available on Lingua Libre, we have to create manually (or using bots) [[Help:Create your own lists|lists]] with these words. I will try to find some time to do it. [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 12:04, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
::Lol. Sascha is in computational lexicology [http://www.brawer.ch/articles/ since 1993] ^^ #Boss [[User:Yug|Yug]] ([[User talk:Yug|talk]]) 16:14, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
::Welcome Sascha, Happy to have your inputs,<br> We do encourage frequency lists usages (see [[Help:Why wordlists matter ?]]). LinguaLibre is still in it's open beta infancy.
::'''Process and quality :''' We started to add some frequency list (Polish) by hand based on Hermite Dave project ([https://github.com/hermitdave/FrequencyWords/blob/master/content/2016/pl/pl_50k.txt 50k list], [https://github.com/hermitdave/FrequencyWords github], [https://invokeit.wordpress.com/frequency-word-lists/ wordpress announcement]). Hermite's free data is helpful yet quite raw, namely: polluted by foreign languages. So when available, we use cleaner list from academic research. Ex: Chinese is planed via [[Template:Subtlex-ch|Subtlex-ch]]. These raw text lists are then copy-pasted into LL wikipages, so one of these lists is then loaded in the record wizard to provide a list of words for the speaker to read aloud. There is no interactive sorting, it's just loading the list as a text.
::'''Licence :''' The other issue we have is that half of frequency lists around have weird semi-free licenses not or unclearly compatible with Wikimedia projects. UNILEX's licence is the [http://unicode.org/copyright.html#License UNICODE licence]. <br>@LL team : Any idea how we handle data and license asking :
 provided that either
 (a) this copyright and permission notice appear with all copies of the Data Files or Software, or
 (b) this copyright and permission notice appear in associated documentation.
::We copy it to the talkpage as well ? --[[User:Yug|Yug]] ([[User talk:Yug|talk]]) 16:48, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
::Good point about the license. Theoretically I could ask the Unicode Consortium to change the license for Unilex to CC0; but like any relicensing discussion, this would take forever. As the person who started the Unilex project at Unicode, I currently have the impression that Wikidata Lexemes is going to be the better (more scalable, faster progressing, eventually higher quality) approach for collecting lexical data about the world’s languages. So, instead of starting a painful relicensing debate, I think it’ll be easier to simply run [https://github.com/googlei18n/corpuscrawler corpus crawler] to build these word lists from scratch. I’ve written that crawler a while ago to get started with the Unilex project; the Unilex word frequencies were built by running 1000 crawls (one for each language), and then segmenting their plaintext output with ICU word break iterators. I’ve now placed a link to the Corpus Crawler sources on [[Help:How_to_create_a_frequency_list_?#Download_corpuses|Help:How_to_create_a_frequency_list]], in case someone here wants to give it a try. If anything’s broken there, or to support additional languages in the crawler beyond the current 1000, just send a pull request via GitHub. You can also fork the crawler project if you want; the source code is a pretty dull Python script with a regular Apache-2.0 license. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 17:02, 14 January 2019 (UTC)


== Enable all human languages in bulk? ==

Would it be possible to support all existing human languages at once? Currently, one needs to file a request for each and every language. It’s not very clear how to do this (which of the admins to contact, and how exactly to contact them?). Also, the LinguaLibre admins surely can make better use of their time than by handling single language requests... For a list of all languages, see the [https://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry/language-subtag-registry IANA language subtag registry] for [https://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/ IETF BCP47]. There’s only a few thousand languages, so it might be easy to do this in one single bulk, and then be done. If it helps, I’ll gladly generate a list of (IETF-BCP47-Code, Wikidata-ID) with the mapping, or any other information you’d need for this; feel free to contact me. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 09:32, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

::Hi Sascha,
::For now on, I only imported languages with an iso639-2 tag, to test Lingua Libre's software with a smaller set of languages for its start (Lingua Libre is still in ''beta'').

== Use IETF BCP47 instead of ISO 639? ==

Currently, LinguaLibre seems to use ISO 639 language codes internally. Consider switching to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IETF_language_tag IETF BCP47]; all modern computing standards such as HTML, XML or PDF have moved from ISO 639 to IETF BCP47. For example, BCP47 syntax supports regional variants such as Canadian French ''fr-CA''; language variants such as Sursilvan Romansh ''rm-sursilv''; regional subdivisions such as the Berne variant of Swiss German ''gsw-u-sd-chbe''; and other fine-grained distinctions. See [https://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/ this article] for an introduction, and the [https://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry/language-subtag-registry IANA registry of valid subtags] for the complete list. Specifically, the proposal would be to add property [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1059900 IETF BCP47 language tag (Q1059900)] to LinguaLibre’s copy of the Wikidata schema, and to use that property instead of [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q56217712 ISO 639-3 code (Q56217712)]. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 10:40, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
:Hi Sascha!
:In fact, Lingua Libre uses nor ISO 639-3 nor BCP47 but Wikidata Qids as internal identifier for a language. Currently, and if I remember correctly, ISO639-3 codes are used in two cases:
:* For the name of pages containing lists in the list namespace (in the format <nowiki>[[List:ISO/List name]]</nowiki>, with ISO the iso6369-3 code);
:* To forge Wikimedia Commons's category names
:Changing the code would affect ''only'' those two parts of the process. If we switch from one language tag to an other, we would have to:
:* Add a new property ''BCP47'' locally as you suggested (a bot can import them from Wikidata);
:* Rename all local lists (can be made by hand, we don't have many lists for now on);
:* Rename all existing Wikimedia Commons categories and move all the audio recordings (a bot there is required);
:I have personnaly no opinion on this question, but if several person agree that it would be a good move, I'll add it to the development todo-list :).

::Cool! I wasn’t aware that you’re internally using Wikidata IDs. This is great, because (other than ISO 639-3) it can model arbitrary languages and dialects.
::* Regarding the lists, would it perhaps be an option to key them by Wikidata ID? Then, arbitrary languages/dialects could be queried, and also regional variants such as Australian English. I don’t know how your server is implemented, but perhaps you could map language codes to Wikidata IDs in your frontend server, so it would not even have to be a user-visible change (apart from supporting more languages).
::* Regarding the names of categories on Wikimedia Commons, what would you think of the [https://lingualibre.fr/wiki/LinguaLibre:Chat_room#Category_.E2.80.9CLingua_Libre_pronunciation-other.E2.80.9D proposal] to use IETF language codes instead of “other”?

== Support variants of Romansh ==
{{done}} -- can be closed [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 20:31, 11 January 2019 (UTC)

Would it be possible to add support for the various variants of the Romansh language?

In the [https://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry/language-subtag-registry IETF BCP47 language subtag registry], rm-rumgr is the language code for Rumantsch Grischun; rm-surmiran for Rumantsch Surmiran; rm-sutsilv for Rumantsch Sutsilvan; rm-sursilv for Rumantsch Sursilvan; rm-vallader for Rumantsch Vallader; rm-puter for Rumantsch Puter.

In Wikidata, rm-rumgr is Q688873; rm-surmiran is Q690216; rm-sutsilv is Q688272; rm-sursilv is Q688348; rm-vallader is Q690226; rm-puter is Q688309.

In Wikimedia commons, the category tags are subtags of [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Romansh_pronunciation Category:Romansh_pronunciation] but they are not very organized; I’ll gladly create new categories if needed.

I’m currently uploading a couple thousand [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Sursilvan_pronunciation Sursilvan pronunciations], such as [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Rm-sursilv-acceptar_enzatgei.flac “acceptar ezatgei”]. It would be great to use LinguaLibre for recording additional variants of the Romansh language, and for recording the missing Sursilvan words. Your toolchain is so much nicer than [https://github.com/brawer/PronunBot my bot], so I’d love to switch over. :-)

See also [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T210293 Phabricator ticket T210293] for a related request to support them for monolingual text in Wikidata, which isn’t really related to LinguaLibre but might be interesting as context.

I’ve tried to add support for the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chakma_language Chakma language] by adding https://lingualibre.fr/wiki/Q74105. My Chakma contact (Bivuti Chakma, bsereye@hotmail.com) was able to record Chakma pronunciations, but he reports that the final step (uploading the files to Wikimedia servers) has failed. Probably it’s my fault; I should have asked you instead of trying to do this myself... Apologies for the nuisance, and thanks for your help. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 14:52, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

== Compress audio? ==

Should LinguaLibre upload its pronunciations in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLAC FLAC format] instead of uncompressed Wave files? FLAC is a lossless compression, so it would save space (and bandwidth for users) without losing quality. The only downside is that LinguaLibre’s server would use a bit more CPU, but that’s probably a very minor issue since it’s only needed once per file. To convert to FLAC in maximal compression, you can use something `ffmpeg -i input.wav -compression_level 12 output.flac`. Wikimedia Commons automatically transcodes FLAC to Vorbis and to MP3; see [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Rm-sursilv-caschiel.flac example for an uploaded FLAC file]. Just a thought. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 15:09, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

== Category “Lingua Libre pronunciation-other” ==

In this [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:LL-Q688348-Sascha-test.wav test], LinguaLibre has assigned a Commons category [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Lingua_Libre_pronunciation-other Lingua Libre pronunciation-other]. Instead of “other”, could it use the IETF language tag (if present in Wikidata)? To get it, retrieve property [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P305 P305] from the Wikidata record for the language. And perhaps fall back to the Wikidata ID for languages that don’t have an IETF code. Then, the recordings from unrelated languages wouldn’t get conflated. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 15:17, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

== Normalize loudness ==

Should LinguaLibre normalize the loudness of recordings to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBU_R_128 EBU R 128], so that pronunciations are perceived equally loud irrespective of user microphones? ffmpeg can do this, either if you call it directly (rather painful), or via the [https://github.com/slhck/ffmpeg-normalize ffmpeg-normalize] wrapper script. It’s also possible to embed metadata with measured loudness, which some (but not all) players recognize; but in the context of LinguaLibre, it might be best to normalize loudness on the server and resample the signal accordingly. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 16:53, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
:I would like this normalization for my usages as well, language learning.<br>Note @[[User:Sascha|Sascha]] : relevant ''normalize loudness'', ''denoising'' , ''fading-in-and-out'' cleanups commands to document in [[Help:Main#Download,_clean,_web_use]] > [[Help:SoX]] (to rename?).

:If normalization was done before uploading to Wikimedia Commons, all Wikipedia users would benefit (eg. when someone clicks on pronunciation icon on Wikipedia, they’d hear the recording in uniform loudness, denoised, etc.). If normalization is done in utility scripts called by end users, the set of people who benefit from this will be much smaller. The trade-off is that the recordings wouldn’t get preserved in their original form, but that’s probably not much an issue for LinguaLibre? — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 06:24, 11 January 2019 (UTC)

== Request for Comment: Moving from ISO 639-3 language codes to IETF BCP47 ==

Hi Lingua Libre users,

[[User:Sascha|Sascha]] suggested several times that Lingua Libre should switch from [[:w:ISO 639-3|ISO 639-3 language codes]] to [[:w:IETF language tag|IETF BCP47 language tags]]. If we do that, it will be a major change in the Lingua Libre code-base. I will summarize here the different usages, pros & cons of such a switch.

Please share your opinion on this bellow!

Thank you all for your participation. — [[User:0x010C|'''0'''x'''010<span style="color: #00C41C;">C</span>''']] <sup>[[User_talk:0x010C|~talk~]]</sup> 16:59, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

=== Overview ===
Lingua Libre uses Wikidata Qids as internal identifier of a language. So the proposed change will not affect the core of the Record Wizard. Currently, ISO639-3 codes are used in four cases:
* For the name of pages containing lists in the list namespace (in the format <nowiki>[[List:ISO/List name]]</nowiki>, with ISO the iso6369-3 code);
* In the name of the [https://lingualibre.fr/datasets/ datasets archives];
* In the description of the local item of each audio recording;
* To forge Wikimedia Commons's category names;
* To forge each file name that is uploaded on Wikimedia Commons;

; Technical considerations
If we switch from one language tag to an other, to be consistent and use the new language tag everywhere, we would have to:
# Create a new property ''BCP47'', and add it to every language items localy, for the Record Wizard to be able to use them (a bot can import them from Wikidata);
# Rename all local word lists (can be made by hand, we don't have many lists for now on);
# Make a quick adaptation in the script that generates the datasets;
# Rename all existing Wikimedia Commons categories and move all the audio recordings (a bot there is required);
# Update the description of the item of every audio recording in our database (a bot can do it);
# Change the way the Record Wizard manages the recording of duplicate words in two different recording sessions: it currently check if a file  has already the forged name on Wikimedia Commons, but as the format of the name would change, we won't be able to rely on it anymore.

;Pros
* BCP47 is widely used in computing standards;
* It has codes for way more languages and dialects;
* It will solve the categorization issue we have currently on Wikimedia Commons (see [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T208641#4873999 T208641]);
* We will have a language code to display for way more languages and dialects (we only show the Wikidata Qid in file names for small languages curently, which is not very user-friendly, e.g. [[:File:LL-Q36759-Assassas77-歡喜.wav]]);
* Allow to have word lists working as expected for small languages / dialects;
* Some Wiktionaries (like the French Wiktionary) use this standard to refer to a language in their templates; this is also the case of Wikibase (and so Wikidata) for the language of labels and description.

;Cons
* As we cannot rename 60.000+ files on Wikimedia Commons, two different file format will have to coexist (but this is not an issue if you use the SPARQL endpoint to extract the metadatas);
* As of today, only [http://tinyurl.com/yby5dgb8 3003 languages] have their IETF language tag filled on Wikidata (we have currently [http://tinyurl.com/y8gd77lp 8028 languages] with an ISO 639-3 code listed);
* Once the changes made to the Record Wizard and the migration scripts ready to run, we would have to turn off the Record Wizard for one or several days, while the different bots are running to avoid unsynchronized items and conflicts.

# '''Contre''' : French wiktionnary don't use IETF code. Sorry I continue in french : L'IETF fait n'importe quoi avec les langues régionales, c'est pire que ISO 639-3. Nous n'utilisons pas les code IETF, jamais à aucun moment. Soit on prend le code ISO, ce qui marche pour 5000 langues environ, soit on prend le nom de la langue en français, ou en anglais si absent. Aujourd'hui, les contributeurs du Wiktionnaire tendent à s'affranchir de plus en plus des codes et de passer sur les noms de langues en tant que clés primaires. La seule organisation qui fassent l'unanimité sur les langues parce que gérée uniquement par des linguistes, c'est Glottolog, à la limite, on peut se caler dessus, ce sont les plus neutres.

# '''Oppose (weakly)''' IETF looks to assign a code to more languages than ISO 639-3 codes. Yet, it does not solve all the issue because I guess it is possible to find language/dialect that do not have either ISO 639-3 or IETF code. In such case, all the issues we have with ISO 639-3 remain the same. If we have to switch to another code system, I has to solve some issues, not only to postpone them. From now, the only code that is flexible and can desribe all language/dialect is the Wikidata code but there are probably other issues if we decide to use them. But since I do not precisely IETF code, I may be wrong so that I do not want to oppose strongly. [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 19:37, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
# '''Oppose''' per Pamputt: if it not covers all the dialects then we still have the same problem. Also I don't feel comfortable with two systems in filenames in Commons. I have lots of homonims in Polish and I afraid I would have two files for the same pronounciation from Lingua Libre for one transcription. That would be nightmare for bot operators adding audio files to wiktionaries. [[User:KaMan|KaMan]] ([[User talk:KaMan|talk]]) 09:00, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
# '''Support''': There’s a couple misunderstandings here. IETF BCP47 is actually ''not'' yet another random codelist that would be different from ISO codes. Rather, BCP47 is a standardized system (and very widely used, eg. in HTML, XML and HTTP) that combinines subtags from other standards. For languages, subtags are taken from ISO 639; for countries, from ISO 3166-1; for provinces/states, from ISO 3166-2; etc. Also, you can add custom information into BCP47 tags without breaking the syntax; this could be used for embedding Wikidata IDs. Here’s a few examples: `en` for English (from ISO 639-1); `haw` for Hawaiian (from ISO 639-3, because Hawaiian has no two-letter code in ISO 639-1); `fr-CA` for Canadian French (language + country); `pt-AO` for Angolan Portuguese; `es-419` for Latin American Spanish (419 is the United Nations M.49 code for Latin America). There is a registry for standardized variants, for example the BCP47 code `rm-sursilv` stands for the Sursilvan variant of Romansh. When a language does not fit into the scheme, you can always append (short) pieces of “private” data after `-x-`. For example, you could encode Verlan (which doesn’t have an ISO language code) as an IETF BCP47 language tag `mis-x-Q1429662` or so. Admittedly, the Wikipedia article about BCP47 is not very helpful at the moment, and the standard itself is very technical. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 20:10, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
#: As I said, I do not know a lot about IETF BCP47 so I may be wrong. Yet, from the examples you give, you say that the language code comes from ISO 639, so actually if a language do not have ISO 639 code, then BCP47 will not have either. The only advantage I see, compared to ISO 639, is it can represent dialect and regional language (Canada French for example). Youwrite that if a language do not have ISO 639 code, then we can use something like `mis-x-Q1429662`. I do not see what is the advantage compared to simply use Wikidata ID (Q1429662 instead of mis-x-Q1429662). [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 22:21, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
#::In names of [https://lingualibre.fr/datasets/ dataset archives], names of uploaded pronunciation files, and in the other [[LinguaLibre:Chat_room#Overview|places]] where Lingua Libre currently uses ISO 639-3 codes, a BCP 47 tag would be easier to understand than just the Wikidata ID alone. For example, an IETF BCP 47 tag ''nan-x-Q36759'' would identify [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teochew_dialect Teochew] as a variant of Southern Min (ISO 639-3: nan) while still pointing to Wikidata [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q36759 Q36759] for the exact identification. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 07:03, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
# '''Support''': I already have problems due to the impossibility to distinct variants in occitan. For instance, if a gascon occitan want to record words from a predefinite list (because he has no idea of which words to record), he can't search for a list in its variant. He will click randomly on lists names, until he got one in his variant (which can takes long and cause him to give up). 
#:Second, on Commons, it will be easier for people who doesn't know Wikidata (for instance a teacher who wants to download words in a variety to have his pupils listening them) to get the variety of the word, directly in the results of the search page (with the filenames). 
#:Third, for the compatibility with developpers programs. At Lo Congrès, we work with RFC5646 (we needed a way to indicate variants). If we make a program which queries Lingua Libre, we need to add a query via Wikidata to get the variety code compatible with our programs. It slows the page and make the work longer.
#:I work every day on a language with variants, and for the sort of work I (and others) do, it would be a real improvement. So maybe IETF is theoretically problematic for his language classement, but ISO 639-3 is pragmatically problematic. As a developer, I prefer a usable system that doesn't fit exactly the reality than a system teoretically right that can't be used without a lot of difficulties. — [[User:Unuaiga|Unuaiga]] ([[User talk:Unuaiga|talk]]) 16:21, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
# '''Support''' (for human friendly filenames): I was slow to answer because it's indeed a tricky issue. For all recordings, the value of their langtags −Qids, ISO639-3, BCP47−, exist or can be created. Qids are always new creations assigned when creating the language on LL's wiki, whereas ISO639-3 and BCP47 can exist OR be extended. Each langtag family can covers +5000 languages and do the job we need them for up to 2025~ 2030, with custom extensions when required easier for Qid (still normal creation) and BCP47 (custom extension). Then, the equivalences between these 3 or more langtags can be found by wikimedia editors or outsiders via the Qid or Wikidata pages and few clicks. Afterwhat each langtag and its value can find its way back into the filename via some replacement script. So for me '''these Qids, ISO639-3, BCP47 langtags are technically equivalents : they each can do the work''' and be quite interchangeable.<br>'''The question is on HUMAN USAGES'''. Three groups of humans will manages these files and filenames : 1) LL speakers, organizers and editors ; 2) wikimedia users ; 3) outsiders like android app developers and non-recording linguists. Who is more important ? To who do we want to make access, readability and work easier ? What is their spontaneous knowledge ?
#* '''The current way: opaque Qid-based filename online, post-download processing to make them readable'''. We have filename with unreadable Qids, with the actual human-friendly value on LinguaLibre Qid's page. So for us LL editors and maintainers, if we find out our language definition is obsolete, we just update the LL Qid's page, and new people coming there for reference will see the corrected values. For end users on wikimedia cannot directly recognize the language. After files or datasets download, batch renaming commands documented on LL can help end users to renames files as they wish.
#* '''Datasets and filenames should be  human-readable pre-downnload'''. If so, then the ISO 639-3-based IETF BCP-47 can cover 99% of our easy usages, and BCP-47 has native flexibility to create code for the 1% weird cases. Wikimedia users and outside-wikimedia users will appreciate. If we make mistakes, the vitality of open data spread wrongly name files and will get us troubles.
#* We will need better LinguaLibre-Commons maintenance bots and more bots masters, so we don't always rely on 0x010C, who thereby become our bottleneck. We also need way to massively rename or remove files from Commons. 
#* I personally think we have to ease readability to outsiders, app developers and linguists who won't find their way through LL documentations. Also, I'am supporting a move toward human-friendly filenames, from LL website down to wikimedia sites and post-download outsiders' desktops computers.

=== Tricky example ===
Let's take a concrete example, what would be the code for the [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60610865 Gudjal language], a Pama-Nyungan language spoken in Australia? This language has neither ISO 639 code nor BCP47 code. It has a Glottolog, AUSTLANG and endangeredlanguages.com identifiers. So if we decide to switch to BCP47, what would be the advantage compared to the existing one (ISO 639) because there is no code in both systems? We simply delay the discussion on the problem of languages or dialects without code. [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 12:20, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
: Since Gudjal is a dialect/variant of Warrungu whose BCP47 code is ''wrg'', the BCP47 code for Gudjal would be ''wrg-x-Q60610865''. To find the prefix for arbitrary languages in Wikidata, it looks like we’ll have to clean up Wikidata a bit. For example, currently there’s no statement in Wikidata linking [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1429662 Verlan] to French; we’d need that to come up with the code ''fr-x-Q1429662'' for Verlan. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 19:23, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
::Indeed, wrong example because some work say this "language" is actually a dialect of the Warrungu language.
::So let us consider the [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4997965 Bunwurrung language], another Pama-Nyungan language spoken in Australia. This one does not seem to be (yet?) a dialect of another language. So, what would be its BCP47 code?

:::In the short term, their codes would be mis-x-Q4997965 and mis-x-Q56261010. In the long term, it would be good to assign ISO 639-3 codes to these languages.

::::Thanks for the examples. In my opinion, "mis-x-Q4997965" is more cryptic than only "Q4997965". If a language has a ISO 639-3 code, then the BCP47 code is indeed easier to understand than a Qid. So, as I already said, the advantage is to make clearer the code for the dialects but it does not solve all the problems (such as these two languages. Since such code change will not be done every month, I would prefer to have a better solution (more universal) before breaking/changing everything.

:::::I find <code>mis-x-Q4997965</code> less crypting : as soon as you know the naming scheme you can assume  <code>mis-x-*</code> is a rare language. If 98% of our languages get clearer with BCP47, and 2% are such as <code>mis-x-Q4997965</code>, it's a net improvement of 98%, let's go for it.

=== Encoding Wikidata IDs into BCP47 ===
By the way, in a BCP47 language tag such as ''wrg-x-Q60610865'', anyone can stuff anything after -x- which is flexible but not ideal for an identification scheme. I’m now preparing a formal proposal for encoding Wikidata IDs into BCP47 language tags. BCP47 already draws subtags from many other registries such as ISO 639, ISO 3166, UN M.49 and others; so why not treating Wikidata as yet another “registration authority”. If the proposal gets accepted, the official syntax would be something different than ''-x-''. Just for your information; I’ve no idea if the proposal gets accepted, and it usually takes a long time to make changes. — [[User:Sascha|Sascha]] ([[User talk:Sascha|talk]]) 12:20, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

Bonjour.

Bonjour,

Je serais très intéressé de savoir comment vous avez paramétré le lecteur TimedMediaHandler.

En effet, je souhaiterais que les utilisateurs puissent rapidement différencier les sons en rapport avec le mot lui-même de sa prononciation, si possible avec un lecteur plus compact pour la prononciation. Surtout que nous n'avons pas besoin de la barre de navigation dans le fichier pour des fichiers autant courts. [https://dicoado.org/dico/dauphin Vous trouverez un exemple de mon "problème" ici].

:Bonjour DSwissK,
:Les lecteurs audio présent dans le RecordWizard et sur les pages de la sonothèque ont été créé spécialement pour Lingua Libre, et n'ont rien à voir avec l'extension TimedMediaHandler. C'est le bout de javascript suivant qui en est responsable :
:<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
function playButton( audioUrl ) {
	var button = new OO.ui.ButtonWidget( {
		framed: false,
		icon: 'play',
		title: 'play'
	} );
	button.on( 'click', function() {
		var audio = new Audio( audioUrl );
		audio.play();
	} );

	return button.$element;
}</syntaxhighlight>
:Lorsqu'un le RecordWizard ou la sonothèque récupère l'url d'un media audio, ils le passent à cette fonction qui en retour renvoie un element JQuery qu'il suffit d'insérer à l'endroit désiré dans la page.

:Sorry for the delay. I've just restarted the script that update Lingua Libre's Sparql endpoint, it should take approximately 2h to catch up. Lingua Libre Bot, as it uses the endpoint to get the new audio recordings, will also catch up and everything should be back around 06h (UTC).

Bonjour à Tous, j'ai reçu un message de 0x010C indiquant que le endpoint n'est plus alimenté car le script a dû crasher. LinguaLIbreBot est tombé aussi. Actuellement 0x010C est en montagne et ne récupèrera une connexion valable que dans 3 jours. Nous vous demandons de patientez jusque là pour qu'un rétablissement soit fait. Merci d'avance et désolé.

:Désolé pour le temps de réaction. Je viens de relancer le script qui alimente l'endpoint Sparql de Lingua Libre, il devrait mettre environ 2h à ratraper le retard des jours passés. Une fois fait, Lingua Libre Bot (qui utilise l'endpoint comme source et qui donc ne pouvait fonctionner) repassera sur tous les enregistrements manquants. D'ici 06h (UTC) tout devrait être rentré dans l'ordre.

== Add language category's ==

When uploading files, could it use the metadata to also add categories so as to help organise mediawiki for example, taking the metadata that says I am "British English" and adding "Category:British English pronunciation" to each of the files I upload? [[User:Back ache|Back ache]] ([[User talk:Back ache|talk]]) 22:08, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
:The easiest way I see to achieve that is to say that you speak "British English" and not simply "English". I created [[Q123270]] so you can use it. [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 21:50, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

== Technical news - May 2019 ==

Hi all,

This is the first edition of the technical news, a newsletter posted here on the Chat Room each month starting today to keep you informed of what's going on on the tech side.

;Recent changes
[[File:Lingua Libre screenshot - Wikimedia category word generator.png|thumb|The new ''Exclude words you have already recorded'' option|upright=1.4]]
A new version of the RecordWizard has just been released. Among new translations and a bunch of small code rewriting, a new major feature has appeared. It is now possible to exclude automatically all words you have already recorded when you prepare a list of words for a recording session. To do so, a new option has appeared inside each word list generator to enable (by default) or disable the feature, see screenshot. A button bellow the list do the same job for words typed manually. It definitely was the number 1 requested feature, you can test it right now and give me some feedbacks!

;Future changes
* A module that allows [[:meta:User:Lingua Libre Bot|Lingua Libre Bot]] to add the audio recordings made with Lingua Libre to the English Wiktionary is at it's final step of development and will be tested in the coming weeks.
* Thanks to a financial support from Wikimedia France, a new video recording studio will soon appear to record sign languages!
* A new gadget will allow administrator to mass edit items of audio recordings (to fix a mistake for example).

:Thank you 0x010C for these nice new features, especially the one that allows not to record again a word that we have already recorded.

: I really love the new option, it works great! It made things a lot easier. Would it be possible to allow to also exclude all words spoken by any editor? So that it's easier to work in a team on a project with the aim to have spoken all words in some area collectively. -- [[User:MichaelSchoenitzer|MichaelSchoenitzer]] ([[User talk:MichaelSchoenitzer|talk]]) 14:42, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

:::If I understood correctly, he wants a new option to be able to exclude <u>all</u> words that have already been recorded, in complement of the actual option that allow a user to exclude all words that <u>he/she</u> has already recorded.
:::For example, I've recorded the word ''kayak'' in French, so with the current excluding setting this word wont show up anymore to me, but it can show up to you as you haven't recorded it.
:::As I see it, it could help increase the number of distinct words recorded in languages with a small number of speakers, by avoiding concentrating the small number of volunteers on words already recorded.
:::This is totally doable (and pretty easy now), the only concern I have is about the UI part. I have no idea on how to add this option without the interface becoming too messy... If someone has a good idea, a mookup would help me a lot to create this feature.

::::Thanks for the exaplanation. It makes sense. About the UI, it is indeed tricky. What about adding a "Lingua Libre" tab in [[Special:Preferences]] that allow to set all the main preferences (this one and others)? [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 05:52, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

== Feature request: ask to reuse existing identical audio if available (part 2) ==

Lingua Libre bot seems to work like that: getting all forms of a lexeme, delete duplicate entries, add recorded file to one of the duplicates. 

Example: There is a recording for the German word "Bildung": [[:File:LL-Q188 (deu)-Sebastian Wallroth-Bildung.wav]]. Lingua Libre bot added the file to the lexeme form [[Wikidata:Lexeme:L11818#F4|L11818-F4]]. But it would also fit to [[Wikidata:Lexeme:L11818#F1|L11818-F1]], [[Wikidata:Lexeme:L11818#F2|L11818-F2]], [[Wikidata:Lexeme:L11818#F3|L11818-F3]].

I would suggest not to delete the duplicates, but to add the recorded file to all of them.

P. S. I tried a workaround by adding the files to the other lexeme forms with [https://tools.wmflabs.org/quickstatements/#/ Quick Statements], but Quick Statements cannot access lexeme forms yet. --[[User:Sebastian Wallroth|Sebastian Wallroth]] ([[User talk:Sebastian Wallroth|talk]]) 06:20, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

Let Lingua Libre bot in Wikidata add the qualifier P407 (language of work or name) to the statement P443 (pronunciation audio).

Example: In the lexeme form box of https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Lexeme:L11822#F2 there is a question mark sign indicating a problem. The popup message claims: "This pronunciation audio statement is missing a qualifier language of work or name."

== Actualités technique - juin 2019 ==
(an English translation will come soon)

Bonjour à tous,

; Nouveautés du mois
* Le gros changement de ce début juin, c'est le support des langues des signes sur Lingua Libre. Dorénavant, celles-ci peuvent être sélectionné comme n'importe quel autre langue, auquel cas vous accéderez au nouveau studio d'enregistrement vidéo. Celui-ci fonctionne sensiblement de la même façon que l'enregistreur audio, au détail près que la découpe des enregistrements se fait au bout d'une durée prédéfini.
:Attention, une limitation technique issue de MediaWiki limite actuellement la prévisualisation aux vidéos de 4s ou moins, ceci sera changé dans le futur (cf [[phab:T97539|T97539]]).
* L'interface de la dernière étape du RecordWizard a changé pour éviter de devoir faire défiller longuement la page. C'est un premier pas qui sera suivi d'autres modifications dans le futur. Si vous avez des propositions, n'hésitez pas à me les faire parvenir !
* Une nouvelle option permet de limiter le nombre de mots récupérés en utilisant le générateur ''Catéggories Wikimédia''. Cela permet de travailler avec certaines catégories du Wiktionnaire qui peuvent contenir plusieurs dizaines de milliers d'entrées.
* Un bug faisait que Lingua Libre Bot supprimait des caractères de retour à la ligne dans certains rare cas sur le Wiktionnaire francophone. Cela a été fixé.
* Les enregistrements sur Commons sont dorénavent catégorisé par utilisateur, en plus de la catégorisation par langue. Vous pouvez toutes les retrouver dans la catégorie mère [[:c:Category:Lingua_Libre_pronunciation_by_user|Category:Lingua Libre pronunciation by user]].

; Changements à venir
* Il sera bientôt possible de modifier les paramètres internes du studio d'enregistrement audio, par exemple la durée d'un silence entre deux mots.
* Les changements annoncé le mois passé ont pris du retard mais sont toujours en développement.

== Replace “Place of residence” with something more relevant, or don't automatically import on Wiktionary? ==

Hi! Great project!

A little suggestion: I’m French, and after 25+ years of living in France, I happen to have been living in Copenhagen for the past two years, which is completely irrelevant concerning the variant of the French language I use. Still, when LinguaLibre asked me for my “Place of residence”, I said “Denmark”. I recorded [[:File:LL-Q150 (fra)-Nclm-tentative.wav|one word]] as a test a few days ago. Now the recording has been automatically added to [[:fr:wiktionary:tentative|its corresponding Wiktionary entry]] with the label “Royaume du Danemark (Danemark)”, which is quite absurd and is giving a confusing information to the readers of Wiktionary. I would suggest removing “Place of residence”, or replacing it with “Home country” or “Place where you mainly learned your language” or something similar (that said, none of these two fit everyone’s life story either).

In addition, I wonder if the automatic upload to Wiktionary should happen. What if I record some words in English? (my browser is set in English so I was automatically going to record words in English before I realised it didn’t make much sense). I’m not sure entries from ”English for France” are that relevant on Wiktionary. Maybe it should only automatically upload clips from the countries that have this particular language as an official language (from Wikidata information)? On top of that, my recording was not that great (I have to set up my microphone better or remove the noise in post-prod), so I wonder if uploading many mediocre clips without listening to them “manually” first might diminish the quality of the dictionary.

:Salut Nclm. I opened a [[phab:T227959|Phabricator ticket]] in order to track your request. To me, it makes sense that "Place of residence" is probably not the best wording. So it is needed to think about that. [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 22:26, 13 July 2019 (UTC)

== Some issues with the Record Wizard ==

Upon recently recording a few words, I noticed some issues with the Record Wizard:

# The "Enregistrer plus de mots" (fr) button works erratically. It would sometimes bring you back to the expected step of the Record Wizard, yet most of the time it'll do nothing.
# Upon verifying the records that were just made (right before smashing that "upload" button :D), going to the previous step would make the "mic" button ineffective. In order to re-record the same word, you need to go back to the word list and re-add the word.

These issues make the UX quite frustrating, although they are not preventing any further work with the website.

:Bonjour Poslovitch, concernant le premier probleme, il y a deja un [[phab:T218371|ticket ouvert]] sur Phabricator. Si 0x010C passe dans le coin, est ce que tu pourrais nous dire ce qu'on pourrait faire (debogueur firefox ou autre ?) pour tenter d'apporter de sinformations utiles a la resolution de ce probleme ?

== Proposition d'ajout de fonctionnalité ==

Bonjour, 

L'option "Exclure les mots que vous avez déjà enregistrés" est très utile et permet d'économiser beaucoup de temps et d'énergie.

Serait-il possible d'inclure une option similaire dans la prochaine version, qui permettrait d''''exclure les mots déjà enregistrés par un autre contributeur LinguaLibre''' ?

Il est évidemment intéressant d'avoir pour un même mot plusieurs enregistrements de locuteurs différents (et c'est même le but final). Cependant, on peut aussi se pencher sur la possibilité de prioriser dans un premier temps les entrées n'ayant encore aucun enregistrement, ce qui permettrait de fournir au moins un enregistrement audio sur un maximum d'entrées du Wiktionnaire, et d'éviter aux contributeurs de se concentrer sur les mêmes mots que les autres. Cela donnerait la possibilité de travailler "en équipe" plutôt que chacun dans son coin ; si l'on décide par exemple de s'attaquer à la "Catégorie:Verbes en français" (34 399 pages), on peut fournir à tous les termes un enregistrement très rapidement en évitant d'enregistrer les mêmes entrées que les autres contributeurs. Une fois qu'une majorité d'entrées possède au moins un enregistrement, on peut continuer à enregistrer des mots sans regarder s'ils ont déjà été prononcés.

Évidemment, il ne s'agirait que d'une option pour les contributeurs intéressés par ce mode de travail, et personne ne serait obligé de l'utiliser.


Qu'en pensez-vous ? <small>prévenez-moi si je ne suis pas clair!</small>

== Nouveau point de contact pour Lingua Libre ==

[English below]

Bonjour à tous,

Je m'appelle Emma, je suis étudiante et depuis août 2019, je travaille à Wikimédia France sur le projet Lingua Libre dans le cadre d'un service civique.

Si vous avez des questions, suggestions, projets à proposer, ou si souhaitez simplement discuter de Lingua Libre, votre expérience avec l'outil et comment vous souhaiteriez qu'il évolue à l'avenir, n'hésitez surtout pas à m'écrire. Mon adresse mail est emma[point]vadillo[at]wikimedia[point]fr

Pour ceux qui seront présents à la WikiConvention francophone la semaine prochaine, ce sera certainement une première occasion pour nous rencontrer et peut-être organiser une réunion de discussion ou un atelier d'enregistrement au cours des périodes de contribution libre.

A bientôt!

Hello everyone, 

My name is Emma, I am a student and work for Wikimedia France since August 2019 on the Lingua Libre project.

If you have questions, ideas, projects to suggest, or wish simply to discuss about Lingua Libre, your experience with the tool and how you would like it to evolve in the future, do not hesitate to write to me on emma[point]vadillo[at]wikimedia[point]fr

Cheers

:Bonjour Emma, tout d'abord bienvenue à Wikimedia France et dans le monde merveilleux de Lingua Libre. Est ce que tu peux nous en dire davantage sur ton rôle dans le cadre de cette mission ; quel sera ton travail au jour le jour ? Au plaisir de te croiser à la wikiconvention :) [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] ([[User talk:Pamputt|talk]]) 14:34, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
::[English below]
::Bonjour Pamputt, déjà merci à toi et Mahuton pour la présentation de Lingua Libre à la wikiconvention francophone :)
::Et merci à tout le monde présent ici pour faire grandir ce projet!
::Je suis en charge de la stratégie de Lingua Libre. Wikimédia France réfléchit à la direction que peut prendre Lingua Libre dans l'objectif d'oraliser les projets Wikimedia. Personnellement je suis très attachée à la diversité culturelle et linguistique et je pense que wikimedia peut participer à la préserver dans l'espace numérique à travers Lingua Libre. 
::Pour cette raison, ça m'aiderait beaucoup si vous remplissiez cette enquête (10 questions) sur votre utilisation de Lingua Libre: https://framaforms.org/enquete-lingua-libre-1569573296 merci d'avance! 
::J'aimerais aussi avoir les retours plus détaillés de celles et ceux d'entre vous qui pourraient me faire part plus longuement de leur expérience avec l'outil afin de le développer et l'améliorer :) Des intéressé(e)(s)?
::PS is there a need for English translation?
::Hello Pamputt, thank you and Mahuton for the Lingua Libre presentation at the wikiconvention francophone
::And thank you to everyone having made this project grow!
::I am in charge of the strategy for Lingua Libre. Wikimedia France is reflecting on the role Lingua Libre could play in the attempt to make wikimedia projects oral. Personally I care a great deal about cultural and linguistic diversity and I think that Wikimedia can take part in preserving it on the web through Lingua Libre.
::Therefore, it would be very helpful if you would fill in this survey (10 questions) on your use of Lingua Libre: https://framaforms.org/enquete-lingua-libre-1569573296 thank you in advance!
::I'm also looking to have more detailed feedback from those of you willing to share more at length their experience on Lingua Libre with me in order to improve it :) Anyone interested?

:::Hi eavqwiki, yes I think you should translate this message into English because we have "a lot" of non-French speaking people contributing to Lingua Libre.

== Adding sounds to the pronunciation claim in Wikidata ==

Recently ru-wiktionary was mass-ported to Wikidata Lexemes (nouns only for now).  As part of that massive effort, the community established a hopefully better way to store pronunciations in lexemes - [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P7243 pronunciation property (P7243)] (~100,000 usages). See [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property_talk:P7243 talk page] for docs, and a great [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/pronunciation discussion] (where [[User:Pamputt|Pamputt]] has raised a number of good points).

Could this tool be adapted to create such pronunciations?

The tool would look for any forms with pronunciation claim, but without a sound file, and offer to record it. Here's a Russian word showing how pronunciation is stored: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Lexeme:L63567#F1

Thank you for such an awesome tool!

== Erreur de langue d'enregistrement ==

Bonjour,

Je viens de m'apercevoir d'une erreur de ma part concernant la langue de mes 1111 derniers enregistrements (en français mais annoncés comme du finnois): [https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?target=WikiLucas00&namespace=all&tagfilter=&newOnly=1&start=2019-12-01&end=2019-12-20&limit=11120&title=Special%3AContributions].

Pouvez-vous m'aider à réparer ça s'il vous plaît ? Merci beaucoup !


Hello, 

I made a mistake which I just noticed, related to the language code of my last 1111 recordings ([https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?target=WikiLucas00&namespace=all&tagfilter=&newOnly=1&start=2019-12-01&end=2019-12-20&limit=11120&title=Special%3AContributions]). They are recorded in French, but I chose a wrong language (Finnish) in the Record Wizard. Can you help me to fix them?

Thank you very much!
