Interface

Humble request !

Hello Sir,

I see your wikipedia which is your regional language with unicode. One of the best facility of your site is that you can directly write in your language. I just want to know , how to make it possible? I want to use same facility with my site with my language unicode font.

I know English but cant read your language. so please guide me in English.

my email address is [email protected]

thanks a lot.

I am working on a couple of aricles but I think it woul be great if we all know the way things are coordinated? How can I also get registerd? Ermias

Hi, I have been working on some of the pages for some time now. But I see that there are some things that we should try to standardize in the translations before we go very far. Especially those terms and concepts we use in the outer structure should be standardized so that they mean the same thing wherever they appear. For instance terms like biology, geology, physics, etc should getonly one equivalent in the Amharic. I mentioned these just because I have been working on them. Otherwise, there may be similar things elsewhere.

Cheers, Ermias

I agree that having one standard Amharic equivalent would be ideal. Of course even in the larger wikipedias there is an ongoing process to try to achieve this. I will have to make "merge" templates so that when two articles on the same subject do arise, all the information can be stored on one page and the other can be "redirected". I am certainly open to any proposals you may have regarding standardizing what terms there are so far at this early stage. Regards, ፈቃደ 20:03, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

do you know how

Amharic wikipedia is going graet. I'm doing the infobox for the states and their counties and cities. If you looked at this article ላ ፓዝ ካውንቲ, አሪዞና, the seal is big in size. I don't know how to add the the width of the image in the template to make it smaller picture. Any help is appreciated.

user-friendly

Selam. Thankyou for your solution of the template. I have been also thinking about the contribution of other people. For this wiki to expand we need a lot more people than us. I noticed there were other people registerd but I don't if they came back.

We have a great amount of work to do. The most imporant one in my opinion, is we need to establish a standard in english to amharic translation. For example should HTML be called ኤች.ቲ.ኤም.ኤል or something else, and should Northern Arizona Univeristy be titled ሰሜን አሪዞና ዩኒቨርስቲ or ሰሜናዊ አሪዞና ዩኒቨርስቲ or something else. Next we have to get the special pages up and running. Pages like መመርያዎች , የማብዛት ፈቃድ , የጽሑፍ አቀማመጥ እና አጣጣፍ መምሪያ , የጋራ ጥቅም እና የምርምር ምንጮች , አንጸባራቂ ንባቦች እና ፎቶዎች - ምክር ይጠይቁ -ዕቅዶች are very important. Another thing is we should make it even more easier to read the articles and offer all the help we can so people can be able to edit the articles. By the way I'm using sadiss as my text editor for amharic. I wonder if there is a way so that if you want, you can write in the search box and the edit box in amharic directly. This would make life really easy because you don't have to cut and paste. Thankyou. Elfalem 04:34, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

Request for article

Greetings Codex Sinaiticus, Can you also help me write a stub http:[1] - just a few sentences based on this article? Just 5-7 sentences would be sufficient enough. Please. -- Jose77, 24 February 2006 (Note: I do not know what the correct title should be in amharic)

Thankyou so much for the article! It looks excellent!

Can you please do one more favor by helping me translate the "Subtitles" of the article into Amharic? Thanks -- Jose77, 28 February 2006

current events

Hello, I was wondering we can start our own Amharic current events? We could focus on Ethiopia and the negihboring area but including international news. Lets start a current news portal. Your and anyone else's opinion is appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks for the welcome, Codex; I recognize your user name from the English wiki. As you can see on my userpage, I don't speak more than a few words of Amharic, but I'll help out when I can. If you'd prefer for me not to add commons images to articles so you, or someone else, doesn't have to give them Amharic captions, just say so, but I figure a captionless image is better than none. Oh, and I'm sorry about leaving those am: links in Santa Cruz County and Afar (region). Picaroon9288 01:57, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

TXiKiBoT on am:

Excuse me for the mistake. My bot was taking this interwiki links from a Wikipedia on another language, and then they were copying to am:, but seems they aren't correct. I'll look for this links, searching for the Wikipedia language that has done the mistake, in order to correct them. So, if the difference is for 7 3/4 years, is there any possibility to link them? I think the years don't start and finish at the same time, do they?

I'll tell you something when I found where the mistake is coming from. I'm sorry. TXiKi.

hello, you blocked my bot, but I did'nt noticed it before. I apologise for messing interwiki. There was problem, because some laguages had bad links, and I did'nt understand am: articles, so I thought, the number-only are correct, because in the others I saw symbol of disambiguation. It's my fault and the blocking was right, because I noticed it. (There are sometimes bad redirects bot can't understand or something.)

If you give me list of correct pairs am->any other language (from top 20 languages), I can repair it on all wikis. e. g.

Ethiopian Years on Amharic wikipedia.

Hello, we are still having this same problem with some Ethiopian years. Would you please remove am:1768 and am:1773 from your list of articles. I have been edit warring with your bot over them, for some reason they are still being mislinked. We now have special pages for all the European years so that bots can link to them, so the correct links should instead be am:1768 እ.ኤ.አ. and am:1773 እ.ኤ.አ.. Thanks. AmaraBot 11 février 2007 à 04:27 (CET) for am:User:Codex Sinaiticus

Hello,

As usual, the bot is propagating wrong links from other languages. I have corrected the links in all languages for 1768, 1773 and also 1978.

Thank you for help! If you need any article or other information in Lithuanian wiki just tell me. I would be happy to help :) Hugo.arg 09:14, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

፡ፈቃደ፣ I think you mean to say inkwan dehna met'achihu. Also, for the interface, are you sure you want to use mech'eresha and ahun for Current and last? By last, you mean previous, not final, which should be something like balefew. And "ahun" means now, not current, which would be weqtawi (weqt = time, -awi = adjectival ending).- Yom

መጣችሁ would be plural, but መጡ is correct for singular respect form (እርስዎ)... መጨረሻ can sometimes be ambiguous in exactly the same way that English 'last' is, but I do take your point, since the literal root of it implies a completion or finality, something at the very end... so I will change it to ካለፈው because clicking that link is supposed to show the diff between that version and the one just before it. Clicking አሁን shows the difference between that version and 'now', so it seems more appropriate. Thanks for the input. ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 13:08, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Okay, I thought you were trying to use the plural. Anyway, I don't have a strong preference either way regarding "Ahun," just using Mech'eresha seems a little weird. Anyway, great job on the Wikipedia so far! Btw, is there anyway to type in english instead of Amharic when you're editing a page? - ዮም (Yom)

Thanks! Sure, you can either uncheck the box above the edit window, or use the escape (Esc) key to switch from one to the other. I have noticed issues with some systems and Internet Explorer though, so that it erases everything already there when you hit the escape key. In general, it works best with Firefox... ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 12:33, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Fundraiser 2007 - please help during the preparation

Hi, well, I noted that messages in the village pump apparently are not really read. There are some tasks where we need the help of the community for the preparation of the fundraiser 2007 and therefore I now decided to ask single people directly. There is at least one thing where anybody can help and this is with a photo for the Flickr group. If you feel like adding something written why you love wikipedia or about which other project you love or whatever you feel matches, it would be great, but also the photo itself would be great, since it would show how the community is able to work together. Of course you do not need to put your name under the photo. If you don't want to upload it yourself on flickr you can also send it to me: scretella (at) wikimedia (dot) org. Besides that we are searching for people who can help to create buttons that link to the fundraiser to be used on peoples blogs and websites. Please find further information and examples of buttons on meta. You can see an example of how a button is integrated in a blog on my blog. Thank you for your attention and cooperation! -- 16 September 2007 Sabine

MediaWiki messages for am

Hi Codex Sinaiticus. Until about a month ago you have done some translation work on Betawiki for Amharic. The current translation status for core messages for Amharic is 31%.

I would like to ask you if you would be willing to pick up the work again to get better support for Amharic, also outside of this Wikipedia. If you personally do not want to make the effort, for whichever reason, please do make the effort to try and find 2 or 3 other users that are willing to work on the generic translation for the MediaWiki interface on Betawiki. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thank you very much for your current and past efforts to put Amharic on the digital map. Cheers! Siebrand 14:12, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

PixelBot

Moinsen, I'd like to request a bot flag for PixelBot:

Operator: de:User:Pixelfire
Purpose: Interwiki bot targetted to run on pages related to those present in German Wikipedia
Software: Pywikipedia
Bot with Flag: ar, ast, bat-smg, be, bpy, ca, cs, da, de, el, en, eo, es, et, fi, fr, frp, gl, he, hu, id, is, it, ja, ka, nds, nl, nn, no, pt, ro, ru, simple, sk, sl, sq, sv, uk, vec, vo, zh, zh-yue
Details: autonomous and supervised.

Thanks! --PixelBot 10:34, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

The main function and purpose of the flag is to stop bots from flooding the recent changes on default setting to make it easier to find other edits. I have been giving them to bots that appear to be functioning properly and make more than 6 edits in a single day. If you could get your bot to do a few test edits here the flag should be forthcoming. Regards, ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 13:27, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Dearest Codex Sinaiticus, this night, I've been trying to figure out how to request help here. I am wondering if you could help me translate a short version of this article for the .am Wikipedia which you have helped to create.

Thanks so much and Happy New Year 2008! ;) -Tenagne 07:28, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Low Saxon

Moin Codex Sinaiticus. Would you mind creating an Amharic article about the Low Saxon language? I already created a Low Saxon one on Amharic. Of course I will "pay" you with translating another article of your choice into Low Saxon.

Btw: When I try to add a section by the "+" button, the Amharic-Latin-script switch checkbox is not present. Hard to write without it , if you don't know the language ;-)

New here and ready to help

Hi, I have contributed to the English Wikipedia quite a bit and would like to help out here if I can. I don't speak Amharic however a friend of mine does and has said he can help me with translations, etc. I am fairly knowledgeable about the wiki and how things are done here and would like to contribute to this one to help get it up and running. Judging by the recent changes page and your talk page here you seem to be one of the more active editors so I thought I would propose the ideas I have here. The main thing I thought I could do would be to translate just the names of various articles in the english wikipedia and start articles for them here, either with a simple stub sentence if I can or even with no text, just the name. On these articles I would then place interwiki links to the varoius other wikis and a template saying something like "This article currently contains no Amharic text however it is available in the languages listed on the left" (translated into Amharic of course). I would also be able to help with categorization, porting templates, generating lists of high priority articles, and any other "grunt work" that needs to be done (as long as it doesn't involve intimate knowledge of the language). I know I can't be of a whole lot of use here but as I said I would really like to help out in any way I can. -AndrewBuck 03:10, 6 ጁላይ 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the translations there. I am wondering about also changing the template name for all of the templates like Template:Location map ኢትዮጵያ so that the whole name is in Amharic. I have also noticed some Wikipedias translate even the word template and was wondering if that could, or already has been, implemented here. If you let me know what the format for the template names should be I would be happy to port over all of the rest. Finally it would be nice to also have the "Top", "Bottom", etc on the individual location map templates translated as well. I already changed "Coordinates" for the ones currently on this server and I think the other labels should be put into Amharic as well. If you just translate one of them over completely I can do the rest the same way. -AndrewBuck 16:42, 24 ጁላይ 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Amharic characters on edit page

On the edit pages under the edit box is a list of all of the Amharic characters which can be clicked on to enter text into the edit box. It would be much easier to use these if they were split up into 3 or 4 columns with each entry being all 6 forms of a given character and then all 6 forms of the next character on the row below, etc. I don't know if it can be changed here or if the developers need to do that but it would be a good thing I think. -AndrewBuck 21:50, 29 ጁላይ 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request for help, please

Dear Codex Sinaiticus, nice to meet you! I wonder if you would be so kind to help translate a very short-stub version of 3-4 sentences of this article for this wonderful Wikipedia? Thank you very much for any advice or help you could offer. I hope to hear from you. Sincerely--Brezza del mare 09:53, 9 ዲሴምበር 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It wouldn't take me that long, maybe 30 min., since thanks to God I am a fluent translator / interpreter; but are you saying that you have something worked out already that you need advice or help on, or do you mean for me to do it all? I would suggest the article reside at ሉዊ ፓስቴ - if I am not mistaken, that would be the normal way of representing the French name in Amharic. ቻው፣ ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 03:50, 12 ዲሴምበር 2009 (UTC)[reply]

።I'm sorry that I do not understand any Amharic at all, I did not have something worked out. What I mean was could you make a stub for me, or tell me how to find another translator. I hope, you could help. And sorry for my disturb--Brezza del mare 09:52, 14 ዲሴምበር 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ሠላምታ ለፈቃደ Hi William... articles like እስልምና and ክርስትና should be editted only by you administrator and sysops or even trusted users like me. I'm afraid that if these articles are allowed to be eddited by other untrusted users they may have great problem on the developement of our wiki. thank you!

Thanks, Anwar! In fact, doing just that would be no problem, since we admins can easily lock articles to sysop-only, or to 'trusted editor' only, at any time! If either of those two articles get big edit wars, or become vandal targets, we can always do that. So far, I have not seen such problems on these 2 articles yet. Neither one has much activity other than bots, and right now anyone can edit them. ክርስትና is barely a one sentence stub so far, at this point, we'd love for anyone to try expanding it with whatever they got. As for እስልምና, I see editors have put a little more material there, and I haven't had time to check it all carefully myself, but anyone at all may do so, and fix it however they think it needs to be fixed! Don't worry, someone would soon step in, if it were ever to get out of hand, including possibly locking down the article. Cheers, ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 11:51, 30 ማርች 2010 (UTC)[reply]

World history book

Hi Codex, I noticed that there is a world history book in Amharic at the good Amharic books site. I was wondering, maybe since the book was published a long time ago, it's copyright has expired or since its published by the Ethiopian Empire, maybe it is in the public domain. If such is the case, I can start transcribing articles from there which will be a great way to start new articles. What I'm proposing is similar to what the English Wikipedia did with the Encyclopaedia Britannica that was published a long time ago. What do you think? Elfalem 23:15, 27 ሜይ 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, that is really cool! That book is a new addition to his library, and I hadn't seen that one before, but now I will have plenty of reading to do! Unfortunately I am no expert on national or international copyright laws, though... It seems to be dated 1940, ie 1947/48 እ.ኤ.ኣ. which makes it over 60 years old. It will be a great source, even if we can't transcribe it word for word, which would be time-consuming to transcribe manually anyway. (I have seen a program before that actually could 'look at' a scanned image of writing, and convert any text it found on there into a computer file text format. But I doubt if something like that works with Amharic text!) 70.105.12.58 23:36, 27 ሜይ 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have looked over the first few sections of that book. It's amazing how similar it is to what most history books written in English said too - even as late as the 1880s. Around that time, it suddenly became possible to translate many ancient records that were in both hieroglyphics and cuneiform, and thus get a much clearer picture of the early history of Assyria, Egypt and their neighbors. That 1948 book (or at least the first part of it) doesn't seem to take into account any of the advances discovered in this field in the 1880s or afterward.

For example, that author describes Assyrian history, talking about 'Ninus, Semiramis and Ninyas'. As far as we know, these 3 names were first recorded around 400 BC by the Greek historian Ctesias, who claimed to have read about them in the Persian archives. From Ctesias on, and until the 1880s, most historians everywhere assumed that these were actual rulers who founded Nineveh, ruled Assyria, and conquered Asia etc. around 2100 BC, because that's what Ctesias wrote. However, nothing confirming the story of Ninus amd Semiramis has been found in the older records, and it doesn't seem to fit well with what is now known of Assyrian history. The author of 'YeAlem Tarik' then jumps directly from Ninyas to Pul (Tiglath Pileser III, 745 BC) by saying Assyrian history in the intervening time is unknown. I think we are able to do much better than this nowadays! Regards, ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 10:31, 28 ሜይ 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I will try to do the article on Ninus in Amharic today, since he is mentioned in most of the world's history books written between 400 BC and 1900 AD, though he has not been confirmed by any source independent of Ctesias the Greek! ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 11:50, 28 ሜይ 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I still hope that the book will help us despite such outdated information. Besides it seems that you have great knowledge with regards to ancient history and could inform us as to what is still valid. Although I don't know much, I have great interest in learning about world history, especially from the perspective of Ethiopians. Particularly for some time now, I've been wondering about whether there was any direct contact between Ethiopians and Romans. I feel this is somewhat hard to look into because the Romans referred to the whole sub-Saharan Africa and even some region in the Middle East as "Aethiopia." Anyways, regarding the book if its any use, I don't mind manually transcribing it. I know there are some OCR (Optical Character Recognition) softwares out there. But I would imagine they would not readily support Ge'ez which is more complicated than Latin. Elfalem 04:50, 29 ሜይ 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As I read the book, I kept thinking parts of it sounded strangely like Peter Parley, and then I read the introduction, and sure enough, most of it is indeed translated from Peter Parley, apart from the parts about Ethiopia. It's interesting that the Education Ministry in 1948 would pick Parley's World History as a source, and probably not the worst choice in the end. The section on Ethiopian history looks like an especially valuable source for us - although Woldemariam says this section is based on Aleqa Taye's book የኢትዮጵያ ሕዝብ ታሪክ... I wouldn't worry much about copyright if you want to try transcribing a piece of it, since no doubt most of this old book would not look the same for long, once we get to update the language!

I'd like to apologize for the deletion of those two pages. I was creating my user page and just looking at general conditions on the smaller wikis and just saw those two broken redirects.

On the other hand, የካቲት 18 would be a place to include a much more detailed list of events - births, deaths, holidays, astronomical, cultural, sport, technology, entertainment related events, etc.... So ታሪካዊ ማስታወሻዎች/የካቲት 18 should be a list of few facts selected from the larger የካቲት 18 page. Elfalem 06:13, 24 ፌብሩዌሪ 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I think I can start these 3 articles off in Amharic. The English translations appear to be recently done from Italian, and they could also use some small normalizations, to make them more readable in English. So as a preliminary, I will make some grammar corrections to those English articles, then they should appear here in Amharic within a day or so.

One interesting article I have had translated into a few small wikis on similar exchange, is at simple:serpopard. I wrote the 'Simple English' version there so it would be easier for translators. So now it is in a few small Asian and European languages too! Cheers, ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 13:27, 24 ጁን 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the welcome

Greetings, first off, please accept my apologies for writing back to you in English. My browser does not support the Amharic language and I am not a speaker of this language. I am not sure how I am able to help out the Amharic language wiki, but if there is anyway I can help, I would be glad to provide assistance. Once again, thank you for your welcome.

Rename

Hi! Just letting you know that I performed a rename on this project. I checked your contribs and saw you weren't active right now so did it since it was a global rename. Hope that was ok. :) Fr33kman 13:27, 4 ኦገስት 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The rename is no problem. But what are you talking about, I'm not active right now? Did you really check my contribs? The logs should show that I regularly exercise editor, admin and b-crat functions. ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 02:33, 7 ኦገስት 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Escarbot

Hello,

Sorry for the bad edits by Escarbot. I think I repaired everything.

I was confused by the double arrow on the year pages. I thought they were disambiguations.

You can unblock, I will be more careful now.

Best regards,

Site logo protection

Hello. Could you please protect File:Wiki.png to be edited and moved only by sysops ? If somebody uploads a new version of this file, the logo site will change as well, so anybody can replace the logo of the website by the picture he wants. Thanks for your comprehension. -- Quentinv57 10:27, 23 ኦክቶበር 2011 (UTC)[reply]
