User talk:Astutely Absurd

Thank you for the warm welcome. Are talk pages mostly the only way to leave messages? What would be the appropriate way to send smaller comments like this one, for example to Jonathunder? Would I just ping him as well?
 * Hi ! For some reason, I didn't get a notification about this ping, but yes, that typically works. I often use  or  . Users also get a notification if you write on their talk page (and it's best to click "New section" when doing so). Cheers! = paul2520 (talk) 23:55, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

Wikimedia Commons: Picture of the Year 2018
Hi ! You may have seen the banner ads about the Wikimedia Commons: Picture of the Year 2018 contest. You need more than 75 edits before January 1, 2019 to vote, but anyone can peruse the photos & there are some phenomenal shots. And the 75 edit minimum is something to strive for this year, to be eligible to vote next year :-) = paul2520 (talk) 14:09, 8 February 2019 (UTC)
