Wikiarchaeologist ubx
Dear Dinoguy. I thought I'd let you know that, inspired by your wikiarchaeologist userbox, I've created my own version of it. Here it is: User:Manifestation/Wikiarchaeologist. On that page, I also wrote an explanation on why I made it. Cheers, Manifestation (talk) 21:19, 23 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Cool! In response to your statement/question there, though, the sentence is somewhat of a personal statement, I suppose; I often delve into page histories for no other reason than simple curiosity. =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 15:25, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Navbox navigation role
Hi, I peeked at your edits at Module:Navbox/sandbox, and wanted to let you know about a related edit request I'm making at MediaWiki talk:Common.css. If approved, it will allow the container element to be, for example, a instead of a single-cell {{code|lang=html|1=

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Administrators will no longer be autopatrolled
A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the Administrator's Noticeboard. 20:05, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

How we will see unregistered users
Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Template talk:WikiProject Anime and manga
Hi Dinoguy1000

Hope all is still well with you!

I've been trying to get some of the WP:ANIME B-class checklists completed, and realized I needed a new template parameter for it, which I've since tested in the sandbox. However, I've not received any reply on my request above. I then remembered you helped quite a bit with the project and template at the time.

Can I perhaps ask for your thoughts on this at the above talk page?

Regards G.A.S talk 09:40, 20 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey G.A.S, long time no talk!
 * It's been quite a while since I last looked at any of this code, but I can see if anything jumps out at me, yeah. =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」☎ Dinoguy1000 10:25, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, indeed :)
 * The template itself has since been updated to make use of a new meta template, so most of the original code has since been replaced.; however, I believe that the sandbox edit I made works as intended. So I think that only further testing might be required.
 * Then we can go ahead with the change in a week or so if no-one makes further comments in this regard, or reply positively?
 * I put a notice on WT:ANIME as well so the intended change should get the necessary exposure. G.A.S talk 12:15, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me. =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」☎ Dinoguy1000 12:16, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * So it turns out there are more than I thought 😅 G.A.S talk 09:04, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Heh, at least you've got plenty to keep you busy for a while! 😛 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」☎ Dinoguy1000 14:19, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
