《维基百科政策简报》2021年10月号

维 基 百 科 政 策 简 报

— 每月一期，掌握政策脉动 —

过去一个月（2021年10月1日至2021年10月31日）内，中文维基百科之重要人事及政策变动大致如下，个别项目基本依变动或施行时间先后排序：

方针与指引重要变动：重大的方针与指引修订。过去一个月内，互助客栈方针区共有方针与指引相关新提案37项，另有7项方针与指引相关提案获得通过：

1. 《命名常规（音乐）》 ：将消歧义用词“纯音乐”改为“器乐”。（讨论纪录）
2. 《可靠来源布告板评级指引》：将大众媒体排除出第五级（非常可靠）评级范围，并将已经结束出版的来源排除出“陈旧讨论”定义范围（讨论纪录）；将“一致认为”改为“达成共识认为”（讨论纪录）；之后取消所有以数字表示等级的描述，改用中文直接表示。（讨论纪录）
3. 《格式手册（两岸四地用语）》暨《命名常规（国际关系）》：对于派驻海峡两岸之外交代表机构及其工作人员，在不产生歧义的前提下，可使用“驻中国”、“驻华”为简称；此外，并将后者之〈外交代表机构命名〉一节提升为方针。（讨论纪录）
4. 《快速删除方针》：精简R2准则措辞，并删除保留误建用户页重定向页面之规定（讨论纪录）；相关模组一并修订。
5. 《格式手册（文字格式）》暨《页面分类指引》：调整前者〈用词要求〉一节中允许分类名称夹杂外文与中文之情况，另相应微调后者〈外文粗体〉一节语句。（讨论纪录）

其他方针与指引杂项修订，包括未于互助客栈方针区讨论而进行之小修改、方针与指引之相应修订或事实性修订等。请核查此等修订，若有需要，可提案至互助客栈方针区复议。

其他重要社群动态：此处列出的动态虽不一定与正式方针或指引有关，惟对维基百科之社群或站务运作有一定影响。

• 管理员布告板“3RR”已经更名为“编辑争议”。（讨论纪录）
• “namespace”之简体中文翻译由“名字空间”变更为“命名空间”，《什么是条目指引》、《保护方针》、《傀儡方针》、《共识方针》、《删除方针》、《命名常规》、《命名常规（技术限制）》、《快速删除方针》、《捷径指引》、《方针与指引》、《格式手册（列表）》、《格式手册（标点符号）》、《生者传记方针》、《用户页指引》、《签名指引》、《管理员方针》、《管理员的离任方针》、《维基百科不是什么》、《编辑方针》、《翻译指引》、《草稿命名空间指引》、《草稿命名空间指引》、《跨维基汇入者指引》、《重定向指引》、《非自由内容使用准则》、《非自由版权图片大小指引》及《页面分类指引》等页面相应调整用词。（讨论纪录）
• 过去一个月内，共有1名维基人获提名维基奖励并通过：Nucleus hydro elemon获授科学特别贡献。

• 讨论本期政策简报
• 调整订阅
• 历年简报存档
