Wikipedia:Jumuiya/Translation Community Vote 11-2022
This is a translation of the community vote in November 2022
Muonekano mpya wa kurasa zetu - kura
Appearance of our pages - Vote
When we open the pages of our wikipedia, we see a new layout. The change was caused by a group working on behalf of Wikimedia. They announced their intention above. Unfortunately none of our community responded to their post. They themselves believe that the appearance is better than the previous one. They believe you will bring in new readers. However, everybody can restore the previous appearance to the device they are using. New users will not easily understand that they can take that action. We have discussed among the admins. Some liked the new look, others didn't see the benefit. One problem we have noticed is that our help and how-to pages are no longer accurate and would need to be corrected. So far we don't see anyone who will do this job.
As it is usual here at wikipedia, we need to take a vote of wikipedians where all can contribute. Therefore, you are asked to record below your vote A) should we accept the changes as they are now or B) should we ask Wikimedia to restore the previous state immediately until we see the possibility of correcting our support pages?

- Either B) for the reasons stated above. --Riccardo Riccioni (talk) 09:10, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- B) Still the old appearance is easier than the current one, let's go back to the old appearance Idd ninga (discussion) 10:18, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- B) I agree with the argument of many that it should be returned until we prepare the environment, especially the aid pages. -- Olimasy (talk)
- B) Still the old look is easier than the current one, it's really boring, let's go back to the old look.-- Hussein Mmbaga (discussion) 18:38, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- B) The current look is harder than the old one, it's better to go back to the old look. Justine Msechu (talk) 20:18, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- B) The new look gives us a lot of work and the people to do this work are not there. ChriKo (talk) 20:50, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- B) Ask Wikimedia to revert to the previous state immediately until we see a possibility to correct our help pages. MagoTech Tanzania (discussion) 14:17, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- B) Starting over is too much work. It's better to keep the original look! Muddyb Mwanaharakati Longa 13:06, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Iwe B (ask Wikimedia to restore the previous state immediately until we see the possibility of correcting our help pages) Benix Mby (talk) 05:15, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- I also think we should go with option B and get time and help from Nana to move to a new look. The issue of them also telling us to talk to the people of the French Wikipedia is also not well understood, I think it would be easier to get direct help from them than to tell us to ask some people Asterlegorch367 (talk) 06:09, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
