Thanks, Thehelpfulone 23:07, 2 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

claiming/verifying domains for Alexa, etc.[edit]

Hi James,

I saw your request for help verifying a site at Alexa, etc. (e.g. following [1]) in #wikimedia-tech today.

Was there a particular rationale / reason that you needed to do that? (to edit metadata at Alexa? why do we need to do that?) Thanks. --Jeremyb (talk) 04:34, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Synchbot request[edit]

Hello JamesA. I just finished handling your request for global user pages, and archived the request & bot log. :) —Pathoschild 21:06, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

Thanks! :) I don't actually remember asking for this, but that doesn't matter; I must need to get my head checked! JamesA (talk) 13:31, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please visit this page if you wish to contribute to a centralized discussion about a Wikimedia genealogy project. Thank you! --Another Believer (talk) 22:03, 26 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Letter petitioning WMF to reverse recent decitions[edit]

The Wikimedia Foundation recently created a new feature, "superprotect" status. The purpose is to prevent pages from being edited by elected administrators -- but permitting WMF staff to edit them. It has been put to use in only one case: to protect the deployment of the Media Viewer software on German Wikipedia, in defiance of a clear decision of that community to disable the feature by default, unless users decide to enable it.

If you oppose these actions, please add your name to this letter. If you know non-Wikimedians who support our vision for the free sharing of knowledge, and would like to add their names to the list, please ask them to sign an identical version of the letter on change.org.

I'm notifying you because you participated in one of several relevant discussions. -Pete F (talk) 22:10, 20 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Global CSS/JS migration[edit]

Hello JamesA. You have global scripts in User:JamesA/global.js, which you import using your local JS pages. Since August 2014, your global.js and global.css pages are loaded automatically on all wikis. Since you already import them yourself, you may experience script errors or tools being added twice. Do you want me to remove the global imports from your local pages using Synchbot (without changing any other content)? —Pathoschild 01:54, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi again! I haven't heard back from you, so I'll assume you don't want to do this. Feel free to leave me a message or add a Synchbot request if you change your mind. :) —Pathoschild 16:56, 09 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
