Note 2: When it is April fool's day, DO NOT TROUT ME as an April Fool's joke. In the past I had a trout button which I removed due to persistent abuse of it. If you trout me on April Fool's Day I will revert you and ask that you do not do it again.
Note 3: Any comments here regarding a vandal or from a blocked user that I was WP:AGF will be archived once I ensure there is nothing left to say per WP:DENY.
Note 4: If I remove your comment and you add it back, I will revert you and warn you for doing so. If you do it again after that then I will report you for harassment. This crap has gone on for way too long and I've become less and less tolerant of it. Removing comments from my own talk page is perfectly allowable per WP:OWNTALK.
Semi-retirement
[edit]This section is pinned and will not be automatically archived. |
It's about time I officially declared myself semi-retired. I don't edit nearly as much as I used to anymore, mostly because I don't have the time to do so, but also because I'm simply not nearly as interested in editing Wikipedia anymore. Don't worry, I'm not leaving forever (yet, we'll see what happens). In addition I'm starting college in a few weeks so my time will be even more limited because of my job. I will retire from being a mentee (tho anyone I'm currently helping can still ask me for help) but will continue with the Counter-Vandalism Unit Academy. I enjoyed my time here and meeting all these people. Will I ever return to editing Wikipedia full time? Who knows. Maybe when I'm an old man if Wikipedia is still around. ― Blaze WolfTalkblaze__wolf 03:30, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- It's sad to see your activity drop, but I wish you a good time in college. Rusty 🐈 03:34, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Adding on to this, I'll respond to your talk page messages while you're inactive if that's okay with you. Rusty 🐈 03:35, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Rusty Cat: I'm retiring from mentoring so I won't really receive nearly as many, but that's fine if you respond to others on my talk page. ― Blaze WolfTalkblaze__wolf 03:36, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Good luck in college and wherever/whatever you go and do! DMacks (talk) 04:37, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Updates for editors
- Administrators can now customize how the Babel feature creates categories using Special:CommunityConfiguration/Babel. They can rename language categories, choose whether they should be auto-created, and adjust other settings. [1]
- The wikimedia.org portal has been updated – and is receiving some ongoing improvements – to modernize and improve the accessibility of our portal pages. It now has better support for mobile layouts, updated wording and links, and better language support. Additionally, all of the Wikimedia project portals, such as wikibooks.org, now support dark mode when a reader is using that system setting. [2][3][4]
- One new wiki has been created: a Wiktionary in Santali (
wikt:sat:
) [5] View all 30 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a bug was fixed that prevented clicking on search results in the web-interface for some Firefox for Android phone configurations. [6]
Meetings and events
- The next Language Community Meeting is happening soon, February 28th at 14:00 UTC. This week's meeting will cover: highlights and technical updates on keyboard and tools for the Sámi languages, Translatewiki.net contributions from the Bahasa Lampung community in Indonesia, and technical Q&A. If you'd like to join, simply sign up on the wiki page.
