@MPossoupe (WMF)
Do I need to deliver the announcement myself? Chqaz (talk) 07:50, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Chqaz, the idea was to distribute in your local communities as well.
The call for candidates is now closed. So no more need to distribute that message.
I will share here if we have other messages to be distributed.
Thanks for all your work supporting elections. MPossoupe (WMF) (talk) 11:22, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @MPossoupe (WMF),
Thank you for sharing the information. I am spreading the announcement. A question on Arabic Wikipedia: is it possible to change your most active wiki as it appears English Wikipedia for him?

Hi @Nada.FA,
Thanks so much. Actually, when someone vote, the system automatically assigns the project where the user had created their Wikimedia account, not the project where they are the most active on. That is a known issue and can't unfortunately be changed this time.
Hope my answer help, ⁣
