User talk:Chernorizets/Bulgarian editor news

Collaboration space

@Kiril kovachev, Bezimenen, IYI681, SimonWikt - sorry to ping you for the millionth time, but this page should hopefully reduce the need for that. I came up with the idea of us having a scrappy but useful space to exchange news and discuss things w.r.t. Wiktionary's infrastructure for Bulgarian. I plan to use it mainly to let y'all know about new templates/modules, updates to the functionality of existing modules/templates, and any interesting Bulgarian resources I find that we might want to take advantage of on here.

As I say in the intro, this is not a replacement for Beer Parlour or the other site-wide consensus and collaboration mechanisms that are already in place, but rather a vehicle for us to keep each other informed of new developments, and - if needed - get on the same page about a topic before expanding to a broader Wiktionary audience.

Let me know if you think this is useful! @Benwing2 idk if we already have handy buttons to make it easy for people to start a new topic without having to necessarily manually edit the correct month subsection of the correct year section - lemme know so I can add that here.

Cheers,

@Chernorizets I don't know of such buttons, although they might exist. I would actually rather you ping me, since I don't use the Watchlist functionality (my Watchlist has 72,999 pages on it; I could trim it but it seems too hard to maintain). You can use the {{wgping}} functionality for this to avoid having to ping people individually; you just need to subst: it e.g. {{subst:wgping|bg}}. In general, for having a collaboration space for a particular language, people use the talk page of the About page for the language, in this case Wiktionary talk:About Bulgarian. It might be useful to move discussions that occur in random places (e.g. the Talk page of individual lemmas) to that page, although discussions of particular modules should properly be on the module's talk page.
