 | Happy First Edit Day! Hi Mahagaja! On behalf of theBirthday Committee, I'd like to wish you a very happy 20th anniversary of the day you madeyour first edit and became a Wikipedian!Chris Troutman (talk)16:25, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply] |  |
Dear Mahagaja,
I'd like to extend a cordial invitation to you to join theTwenty Year Society, an informal group for editors who've been participating in the Wikipedia project for twenty years or more.
Best regards,Chris Troutman (talk)16:25, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, there! As someone knowledgeable in IPA and Wikipedia IPA conventions, perhaps you'd be interesting in contributing to this talk page discussion:Talk:American_English#Consistency of IPA phonemes for American English dialect pages.Wolfdog (talk)16:59, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi there! I've just been reading your amazing work on theIrish phonology page, and have noticed you've cited many different descriptive works for the various dialects. I'm currently working on some materials from the Doegen recordings and there's a handful of dialectic descriptions I haven't yet been able to lay hands on (I have a bunch already, but can't afford to buy any more and don't have institutional library access). I was wondering if you happen to have digital copies of any monographic dialect descriptions? In particular, I'm looking for any of the following studies:
If you have any of these materials, I'll gladly provide my contact details (unfortunately I've forgotten my Wiki login details, so in the interim I'll try to dig out my login, or will set up a new account if I can't). Thanks very much in advance!58.179.70.149 (talk)09:18, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mahagaja, and happy new year. I might have given you a heart attack with the title, but it's not about you :)
Yet again have I been blocked by the same admin (Fenakhay) who isextremely possessive on Arabic and Maltese entries. All I did wasthis edit - I invite you to judge whether it is vandalism.
My 2600+ voluntary edits have been awarded with being blocked for 1 year, cannot edit my talk page, cannot email anyone. I've only had negative interactions with this admin, who has a long record of unsubstantiated reverts and other tyranny - which is why I guess he needs to constantly delete his talk page which is clogged with complaints. (Use Internet archive if you wish)
The gist of my message is: Do you think I am being treated fairly?Synotia (moan)18:39, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in thisanonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on itsMeta page and view itsprivacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
Kind Regards,
BGerdemann (WMF) (talk)19:22, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In 2006 you made an edit toDallas County, Missouri, adding a percentage of people speaking Pennsylvania German or German at home, along with a citation, presumably documenting the percentage.link to edit
That citation is a bare link and I'm working on cleaning up bare links. In some cases it is straightforward to convert the bare link to a proper link, but that doesn't work if the link no longer goes to the correct page. I see that the link goes to a odern language Association page, but I'm assuming they've reorganized their site so your link no longer works. Could I talk you into trying to find the information? You can either add it as a properly formatted link to the article or just let me know the link and I'll take care of it.S Philbrick(Talk)11:29, 17 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi! Pretty confused by that there userboxover yonder. You think abortion is immoral??? Why? And why make a userbox about it on an encyclopedia? Are you aware ofWikipedia:Userboxes#Content_restrictions which saysUserboxes must not be inflammatory or substantially divisive.
and namesPropaganda, advocacy, or recruitment of any kind (commercial, political, religious, or otherwise)
as stuff that is not allowed. See alsoWP:UPNOTyou may not include in your user space material ... which is likely to give widespread offense
. Very confusing.Polygnotus (talk)20:15, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I also discoveredUser:Mahagaja/life and choice which probably also should be deleted, I don't even know what it means so it seems to convey no information. I was under the impression that stuff likeCategory:Abortion user templates was all deleted. Why does it still exist? I am also very confused byUser:Mahagaja/Carlson, but I think that one should be preserved because it is funny.Polygnotus (talk)20:29, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Mahagaja. This message is being sent to remind you of significant upcoming changes regarding logged-out editing.
Starting 4 November, logged-out editors will no longer have their IP address publicly displayed. Instead, they will have atemporary account (TA) associated with their edits. Users with some extended rights like administrators and CheckUsers, as well as users with thetemporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right will still be able to reveal temporary users' IP addresses and all contributions made by temporary accounts from a specific IP address or range.
How do temporary accounts work?
~2025-12345-67 (a tilde, year of creation, a number split into units of 5).Temporary account IP viewer user right
Impact for administrators
Rules about IP information disclosure
~2025-12345-67 and ~2025-12345-68 are likely the same person, so I am counting their reverts together toward3RR, but notHey ~2025-12345-68, you did some good editing as ~2025-12345-67)
