Survey for donation

Hi, where can I found the translations of the survey which can be compiled after making the donation to Wikimedia in these days? --Superchilum^{(talk to me!)} 07:42, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Migrating Template:Welcome?

Should we be transferring our welcome message to the translation system so that it can be more widely available, and less problematic to update? — billinghurst sDrewth 01:25, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Support It should be systematic by using passage that based on the single source of default langauge English.--NP-chaonay (talk) 08:05, 19 March 2021 (UTC) (1st edited on 05:47, 24 March 2021 (UTC))

Proposed amendment to MSR

Per Meta:Requests for adminship/Tks4Fish, I propose we add under "Administrative actions on Meta" the following provision - Admin actions related to Steward request pages as well as Stewards/Elections / Stewards/Confirmations. I see this analogous as how we grant limited adminship to trusted users to manage Chapter / Affiliates pages such as Meta:Requests for limited adminship/Willie Robert. Ideas.

Oppose without clarification, what exactly are actions related to these pages supposed to be that will address the situation that started this? Is there an issue that the action related to the pages (e.g. protect/delete) were an issue @Camouflaged Mirage:? The only contentious thing in that RfA had to do with actions related to users (i.e. blocking). — xaosflux ^Talk 13:40, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
- FWIW, I'm fine with allowing stewards to use page management tools on any steward request pages, broadly construed. — xaosflux ^Talk 13:44, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

Comment

I would prefer that the conversation takes place on the relevant talk page, and a pointer to the discussion appear here. (missing userid: User:Billinghurst) 00:00, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

Given the low participation here, this seems to be a non-problem. I suggest archiving. --MF-W 23:22, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
