Superprotect status[edit]

Dear Foxj, since you are an administrator on a wiki from which no user participated in this discussion, I'd like to make sure you are aware of some recent events which may alter what the Wikimedia Foundation lets you do on your wiki: Superprotect.

Ready for translation: VisualEditor News #4—2015[edit]

Hi! This is an invitation to join translators working on the August's issue of the VisualEditor multilingual newsletter, which will be widely delivered at the end of this workweek. Among other things, this month it features the names of the top contributors for the recent VisualEditor 2nd Translathon. Thanks a lot for your support, as usual!

PS: Here are some instructions. Please go to the translation page: your language should be available from the drop-down menu on the right. Once you've selected it, you'll see the document in English side by side with any translation work already done in your language. You can add new translations or modify existing ones.
PPS: We are maintaining a list of editors who have worked on VE-related content (such as newsletters). We only use it to notify them of translation opportunities, to make sure they don't miss Translathons, etc. If you would like messages like this one to be delivered on your talk page at a different WMF project, need any help with translations related to VisualEditor or would like to remove your name from that list, please contact me directly.

Translation: VisualEditor newsletter October 2018[edit]

18:20, 24 October 2018 (UTC)

Hello. You are receiving this message because you are active in the field of translations <3 The movement needs you! The Nominations phase has started for the ongoing selection process of two Board members, and the timeline is quite tight.

A Translation Central is available to help translators figure out what's been covered and what's left to do. Over the course of the next few weeks, your attention on candidates' profiles is particularly welcome.

While there are four languages that are especially relevant for multiple affiliates (namely Arabic, French, Russian and Spanish), you can also add others. If you can't help: please see if you know anyone in your circle who could, and spread the word :) Thank you! Elitre (WMF) and Facilitators of ASBS 2019, 13:20, 18 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The Research team could use your help[edit]

Hello. You are receiving this message because of your recent activity in the Translations namespace.

The Wikimedia Research team is developing a new algorithm that automatically recommends sections for editors to add to articles. Translations have already occurred for some of the few languages that we are testing in, except for Spanish and Russian. If you have some time in the next few days, please consider translating the short message (only 6 items) we aim to send out soon, in one or both of these languages. (And if you feel like you want to support your tester peers even more, you can do so by taking care of the related instructions page.)

Thank you! Jonathan Morgan & Diego Saez-Trumper, Wikimedia Foundation Research - 18:14, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Taking over the #wikispore channel[edit]

Hi Fox!
(This message is sent to the other IRC group contacts as well.)

We'd like to take over the #wikispore channel for use by the Wikispore project. It was used by the community of the Spore video game Wikia, but they have moved on to Discord and the IRC channel has been pretty much unused since mid-2017. The channel owner has been inactive on Freenode for over two years and I couldn't identify their wiki account or other contact details. I asked one of the Discord admins about taking over the channel and they said it's OK (admittedly this is a bit short of giving notice to the community).

How should we proceed? --Tgr (talk) 17:57, 31 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

IRC Cloak Status[edit]

Hello,

I have met the Wikipedia requirements to be eligible for a Cloak. I have applied a few weeks ago and I am checking on the status of my application.

Cloak status[edit]

I'm asking for the cloak application that I've applied for. It was already weeks, if not years, that have passed since I applied. --1233 T / C 14:27, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DiscussionTools[edit]

Hi, Joe,

The Editing team has scheduled a major update to mw:Extension:DiscussionTools (the new Reply tool) for next week's deployment train. Since you invoke the feature from a script (I do, too), you're probably going to see that update next week, before it's officially released in the mw:Beta Feature system. The new update will use a similar system for starting a ==New discussion==. As before, full-page wikitext editing will not be affected. There is more information on the project page at mw:Talk pages project/New discussion.

If you encounter problems next week, please ping me or leave a note on the talk page for the project. Thanks, Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 21:57, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
