How come you are being like 1984? Orwellian? Where the Right is concerned, are you the New Big Brother? Only You have the right to control Free Thought? You're kinda Creepy if ya ask me. Free Speak? Not with you!!!!!

SOPA Blackout notice: date is not up to date; translation;

SOPA Blackout date is not up to date, or it releases in two past dates, January or 2012. --Omotecho (talk) 14:25, 22 March 2019 (UTC)

Hello @Omotecho: - that page is kept for historical purposes. The SOPA Blackout is over, and the recent blackouts were not related to SOPA. As such, I am not sure what about it is not up to date. Can you elaborate? Is there a typo on the page? Thank you! --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 20:18, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

@GVarnum-WMF: hi, I posted as there was a notice banner on that day 22 March 2019 which I have expected to be a EU copyright related note since I have read somewhere, but was not sure if it was planned for 21st or 22nd. I was annoyed as the link took me to a 2012 post by Sue. Any hickup or illusion? Sorry but should have taken a screen shot but can’t track it back. --Omotecho (talk) 01:33, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Hello @Omotecho: - that banner was for the EU copyright directive vote this past week and not for SOPA. More information about the 22 March 2019 blackout is available on the Wikimedia blog. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 17:00, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

@GVarnum-WMF:, hello, yes, case closed for me, and appreciate very much for your kind clarification. Maybe my misunderstanding the SOPA banner had showed up. Cheers, --Omotecho (talk) 19:24, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

There is a typo in the title, it should be "Foundation". Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:25, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

@Jo-Jo Eumerus: Thank you for noticing and reporting that. I have gone ahead and fixed the typo in the file name. Thank you! --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 19:17, 20 June 2019 (UTC)

Redirect from donation

FYI I arrived at the page https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/FAQ/en from a notice inserted into an English Wikipedia article which read "Last chance: Please don't scroll away". The correct link should ostensibly be to the redirected page https://donate.wikimedia.org/wiki/FAQ but to update it I have no idea where the notice actually exists.
