The Community Wishlist Survey

Hi,

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) 11:24, 30 October 2018 (UTC)

Breitbart article

I already confirmed that I am the author and you can see my bio on the piece states that I am this user. My articles on Breitbart are written under a pen name.--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 20:44, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

• Thank you. It was out of an abundance of caution in regards to outing. I hope you understand. --Hammersoft (talk) 20:51, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello again, this has been bugging me for days now, but the entry on the summary page claims my article "covers material already reported on earlier by Buzzfeed News." That falsely suggests there was no original material in my piece. Not only did I cover details of the discussion not covered in BuzzFeed (the resysopping of Floquenbeam, the Board Chair's response, the reaction to said response, and NewYorkBrad's proposal of what I can remember), I also covered something significant not yet brought up in any of the relevant on-wiki or off-wiki discussions (those who have since brought it up did so because of my reporting). Some details of what I reported were only reported in my article of those media outlets that have covered this story. Having it erroneously suggested that I simply rehashed what BuzzFeed already covered is rather annoying for a number of reasons. Could you please correct the error?--The Devil's Advocate (talk) 02:13, 7 July 2019 (UTC)
