About Mentorship
Hello, ColinFine! I hope you're... enjoying The Wikipedia Adventure? It's a... helpful tool that gives guidance on how Wikipedia works.

The English Wikipedia is currently undergoing small portions of our Growth Team Features, as you probably may know from the Teahouse talk. I'm reaching out because we plan on expanding our mentorship feature to a larger test group (about 80 percent), and we need some additional users to sign up. I'm curious if you were interested, because you're active at the Teahouse and the mentorship feature is relatively similar in function as well as the questions you receive. If not, that's perfectly fine, but you can sign up here if you are. Panini! 🥪 12:49, 10 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, . I have NO idea why TWA has put a message on my Talk page today: I may have tried it once years ago. About mentorship: I need to think about what commitment that calls for. ---ColinFine (talk) 16:41, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Actually, I see that that message has been there since I went into TWA briefly in 2014, but its "timestamp" is actually NOW. I think I'll remove the whole entry. --ColinFine (talk) 18:11, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Colin. If you click this link, you can view every single question asked of every single mentor over the last 14 days. I've only had this one question asked of me in three weeks - hardly onerous. Right now, 25% of all new accounts get the new Homepage Tab activated by default. Of those, 2% get allocated a mentor. This will obviously increase as full rollout occurs, but it's unlikely we'll each get more than one or two short questions a week. And most will probably only need a short, encouraging reply. The list of all current mentors is here.Regards, Nick Moyes (talk) 13:50, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks!
Thank you very much for the Teahouse link to RSNP - I'd been looking and somehow couldn't find it, so your reply to another editor was extremely helpful. StartGrammarTime (talk) 03:39, 25 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Glad to help, StartGrammarTime. (And that is exactly why we encourage public discussion and public answering of questions). ColinFine (talk) 18:23, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

György M. Csákány - corrections
Dear Colin, thank you very much for your reply and clarification. The project is financed by me and the current translations (Russian, English) are my own work free of charge as well as the original article is my own "child". In 5 languages my colleagues sent me translations free of charge, wishing to help me to finalize the project. To be honest, I struggle with those links and still try to learn how and where to use them. If you could correct the article name I would be very grateful for it. Kind regards from Budapest, Liza (Eczopyk) --Eczopyk (talk) 15:43, 22 March 2022 (UTC)


 * I have moved the draft, and made a couple of changes to how he is referred to in it, and I've wikilinked a couple of terms. ColinFine (talk) 16:14, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Moved it to [Draft:György M. Csákány, I should have said. ColinFine (talk) 16:15, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

CoI edits
Hi, I see you're online and answered Jimrobertseconsult's question about out of date information at EConsult. I've got a question too: who is allowed to accept/reject CoI edit requests? Can any editor without conflict deal with them, or is there a specific team who do the work, analogous to AfC? I think I did one once (an obvious reject) when I was young and innocent, and have since worried that I overstepped the mark... Elemimele (talk) 13:19, 19 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Elemimele. I've always assumed that any uninvolved editor may respond, and WP:COIRESPONSE doesn't say anything about it being a limited group ColinFine (talk) 08:59, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks ColinFine :-) I have some good soaps! Cool, that you know Finnish! Can you make an undeletion request? Thank you so much, Saippuakauppias ⇄ 12:45, 28 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi. No, I'm not going to do the request for you. Given that you apparently gave the file an unhelpful name, it might be easiest for you just to upload the logo again. ColinFine (talk) 13:48, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
