This has me puzzled. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 22:34, 28 March 2015 (UTC)

Re
Thank you for your message! It's true I've been rather absent from an admin point of view here, but it is because I've been very busy in real life too, also in making Wikidata more known in Italy. :) Anyway, I'll try to be more active in the next days and months, and if I won't meet the limit... Well, so be it. Being admin for me it's nice, but I acknowledge it is also a duty. :) Sannita - not just another it.wiki sysop 10:15, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
