Gratitude and curiosity
Thank you so very much for fulfilling my name change request. I do have a question for you. When I am not logged in to the English Wikipedia, for example, my previous contributions in revision histories (e.g., Microsoft Office 2010) use my former name; however, after logging in my new name is displayed. Is there any way for my new name to always be displayed? —(Ian Wolfman (talk) 19:29, 12 February 2018 (UTC))

The Community Wishlist Survey
Hi,
You get this message because you’ve previously participated in the Community Wishlist Survey. I just wanted to let you know that this year’s survey is now open for proposals. You can suggest technical changes until 11 November: Community Wishlist Survey 2019.
You can vote from November 16 to November 30. To keep the number of messages at a reasonable level, I won’t send out a separate reminder to you about that. /Johan (WMF) 11:24, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
Advice needed
Hi, just wondering how can you do such nice summaries "requesting speedy deletion, G7)"as well as leaving a note on creator talkpage. Is it some script or what?Thanks!--Cohaf (talk) 12:16, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Cohaf: I tag pages with a modified version of User:Hoo man/Scripts/Tagger. Welcomes and notices are done manually. Nihlus 12:19, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
- I didn't know that even existed, I'll give it a try. Thanks--Cohaf (talk) 12:33, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
Question
Hello, Is it allowed to change username before 6 months of the last change? Thanks. --Dr-Taher (talk) 15:45, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- @Dr-Taher: It's up to each renamer's discretion, essentially. Standard practice is to do no more than two in a six month period, although you may do what you want if it is in the best interest of the user and you believe they are not making repeated frivolous requests. Also, be sure not to process requests for users from wikis where you may be unfamiliar with the policies. Nihlus 15:53, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks. --Dr-Taher (talk) 15:55, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

The 2021 Community Wishlist Survey is now open! This survey is the process where communities decide what the Community Tech team should work on over the next year. We encourage everyone to submit proposals until the deadline on 30 November, or comment on other proposals to help make them better. The communities will vote on the proposals between 8 December and 21 December.
The Community Tech team is focused on tools for experienced Wikimedia editors. You can write proposals in any language, and we will translate them for you. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing your proposals!
18:26, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
We invite all registered users to vote on the 2021 Community Wishlist Survey. You can vote from now until 21 December for as many different wishes as you want.
In the Survey, wishes for new and improved tools for experienced editors are collected. After the voting, we will do our best to grant your wishes. We will start with the most popular ones.
We, the Community Tech, are one of the Wikimedia Foundation teams. We create and improve editing and wiki moderation tools. What we work on is decided based on results of the Community Wishlist Survey. Once a year, you can submit wishes. After two weeks, you can vote on the ones that you're most interested in. Next, we choose wishes from the survey to work on. Some of the wishes may be granted by volunteer developers or other teams.
We are waiting for your votes. Thank you!
