The Community Wishlist Survey
editHi,
You get this message because you’ve previously participated in the Community Wishlist Survey. I just wanted to let you know that this year’s survey is now open for proposals. You can suggest technical changes until 11 November: Community Wishlist Survey 2019.
You can vote from November 16 to November 30. To keep the number of messages at a reasonable level, I won’t send out a separate reminder to you about that. /Johan (WMF) 11:25, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
Community Wishlist Survey 2019 - Section Name in Diff
editHello!
The Community Tech team (WMF) has officially started the project for Section Name in Diff, the #9 wish from the 2019 Community Wishlist Survey!
You previously voted for this wish, so we are now contacting you. We invite you to visit the project page, where you can read a project analysis and share your feedback.
We hope to see you on the project talk page, and thank you in advance!
The 2021 Community Wishlist Survey is now open! This survey is the process where communities decide what the Community Tech team should work on over the next year. We encourage everyone to submit proposals until the deadline on 30 November, or comment on other proposals to help make them better. The communities will vote on the proposals between 8 December and 21 December.
The Community Tech team is focused on tools for experienced Wikimedia editors. You can write proposals in any language, and we will translate them for you. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing your proposals!

We invite all registered users to vote on the 2021 Community Wishlist Survey. You can vote from now until 21 December for as many different wishes as you want.
In the Survey, wishes for new and improved tools for experienced editors are collected. After the voting, we will do our best to grant your wishes. We will start with the most popular ones.
We, the Community Tech, are one of the Wikimedia Foundation teams. We create and improve editing and wiki moderation tools. What we work on is decided based on results of the Community Wishlist Survey. Once a year, you can submit wishes. After two weeks, you can vote on the ones that you're most interested in. Next, we choose wishes from the survey to work on. Some of the wishes may be granted by volunteer developers or other teams.
We are waiting for your votes. Thank you!

I was very surprised to see that you had been indefinitely blocked from editing the wikipedia
editI was very surprised to see that you had been indefinitely blocked from editing the wikipedia in 2023.
I was very surprised when I was indefinitely blocked from editing the wikipedia in 2021.
My block was, IMO, indefensible. I tried to make sense of your block log, because I suspected your block may have been indefensible too.
I think the wikipedia is suffering from something equivalent to an auto-immune disorder.
In an auto-immune disorder an animal's quality control system, the immune system, attacks healthy organs, not intruders. I was a very good contributor. My recollection is that you were as well.
Can I ask whether you want to share your version of what happened to you?

- In particular, the first entry in your block log cited this edit as an instance of a "personal attack", even though you don't see you calling anyone any names, or making any disparaging comments on anyone's intelligence, character.

- If you're wondering what has just been revision deleted on en:Wikipedia talk:Arbitration Committee/Noticeboard#Arbitration motion regarding Ireland article names - required location of move discussions rescinded it's this:
On the subject of Ireland, I have just discovered that BrownHairedGirl has been banned for a year. During the case the phrase "brace yourself Bridget" came up. I have read BrownHairedGirl's statement at the workshop. I know a woman named Bridget who got a divorce and reverted to using her Irish maiden name. Her marriage certificate was put out for collection in the trash, from where I retrieved it. She has three sons, who went to live with their father. She never had the decree nisi made absolute, and the family reunited and later moved to another part of the country to make a fresh start with relatives. So @BrownHairedGirl: I hope you will ask to come back and that we will see you in August. The compliments of the season to you and your family.
