@JBrungs (WMF): for approval. :) —DerHexer (Talk) 10:50, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I can confirm that all agreements are signed! Best, JBrungs (WMF) (talk) 14:40, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! —DerHexer (Talk) 19:13, 27 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jetam2: I know that this is not the first campaign of this kind, as I handled last year's campaign, too. However, two things are uncommon for me: the very long duration of the campaign (that was even increased by a month this year), and that you are also targeting logged-in users—which is usually not done in fundraising campaigns because we usally don't want to ask our volunteers for two kinds of participation (but I know that the tax deducation model is slightly different). Is it fine as is? Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 10:55, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@DerHexer: I think it would be good to have it longer since people take time to do their taxes. I would just display it less often. If only shorter is possible, then start at 01-JAN and finish 31-MAR.--Jetam2 (talk) 12:32, 23 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Central Notice admin comments

@Jetam2: You know best when the tax income happens in Slovakia, so I have implemented the full duration to the campaign but set the cookie for a month before another cycle gets started. I have reused the banner from last year because the text and link seem to be the same. Please check everything, approve it and ping me so that I can enable the campaign. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 19:12, 27 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Jetam2 is this campaign still needed? It has not been enabled since the request is still awaiting a final check from your side. Ciell (talk) 17:13, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Ciell and DerHexer: Yes, it is. Sorry, I seemed to have missed these pings. I could not see the preview of the banner but otherwise it seems good.--Jetam2 (talk) 20:52, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, sorry that I forgot to add a preview link. I have enabled the campaign, but please check it again and ping me if there is any problem. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:43, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
