Hello Bigbossfarin, and welcome to the Wikimedia Meta-Wiki! This website is for coordinating and discussing all Wikimedia projects. You may find it useful to read our policy page. If you are interested in doing translations, visit Meta:Babylon. You can also leave a note on Meta:Babel or Wikimedia Forum (please read the instructions at the top of the page before posting there). If you would like, feel free to ask me questions on my talk page. Happy editing! –BruTe talk 15:41, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
Fundraising translation feedback
[edit]Hey Bigbossfarin, I have a bit of a request to ask from you. We pulled down our banners nearly a fortnight ago for what was a highly successful international fundraiser and brought the curtain down on last years fundraiser. This week however we will be changing payment processors and during the testing of the new system it would be useful to use the time productively on on testing banner text.
To help us out with this I wonder if you would be willing to help us improve our geman text using This Link
Simply follow the simple instructions on that page and if you have any questions feel free to contact me on my talk page.
We are going to run the test on tuesday so if you dont see this message till 24 hours after it was sent you can ignore me :) Many Thanks though.

Translation request
[edit]Bigbossfarin, might you be willing to translate the main Wiki Loves Pride page at English Wikipedia into Deutsch? Wikimedia LGBT is organizing a global campaign called Wiki Loves Pride, which will be held in June. I speak only English, but ideally, there will be similar project pages at Wikipedias of other languages. This will allow collaboration, discussion and the ability to organize events in languages other than English. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration. --Another Believer (talk) 15:34, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you so much, Bigbossfarin. You are generous for donating your time and skills. --Another Believer (talk) 18:13, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
- No problem, I'm happy to help! --Bigbossfarin (talk) 18:19, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
