Global templates[edit]
Hi!
I'm writing this because some time ago you supported the Wikitemplates proposal.
That proposal appears to be inactive, but I wrote a very similar and more detailed proposal called Global templates.
Can you please read the proposal (it's translated to several langauges!), and if it sounds good, to support it by adding your signature at the page mw:Global templates/Discuss?
Thank you! --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 12:28, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
bad or good user?[edit]
Hello, 31.5.234.166 (talk • contribs • block • xwiki-contribs • xwiki-date (alt) • CA • ST • lwcheckuser) edited ro.wikipedia too. Can you verify (as ro speaker and local sysop) if its edits are good? Dynamic IP, two different users, I don't know. Blocked on wikibooks, anyway. Regards, Rafael (stanglavine) msg 23:29, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Unable to remove support?[edit]

Is there anything to do to change my support, or do I have to be careful about supports from future. --Greatder (talk) 11:33, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Quiddity (WMF): Do you can review these edits? --NGC 54 (talk / contribs) 11:47, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @Greatder:. The voting closed/completed on 15 March, as NGC 54 noted, so it's not possible to change anyone's vote after that time. But thank you for looking at the proposals again! Some details about the results of the vote are at Abstract Wikipedia/Updates/2021-03-17 if you'd like to read more. I hope that helps. Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 16:12, 23 March 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for participation in Ukraine's Cultural Diplomacy Month![edit]
Hi, NGC 54!
Thank you very much for participating in Ukraine's Cultural Diplomacy Month! My apologies for not sending this message sooner – but be assured, your contributions are very valuable!
The organisers welcome you participation. We hope you had fun! Some users faced the notability issues of the suggested articles; we recognise that the list of suggested articles wasn't flawless.
The project is not ended until all worthy participants receive their souvenirs! There will be another message from the organising team soon about this.
Stay safe, we appreciate you being a Wikipedian that you are
