Invitation to participate in a research

[edit]

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 this anonymous 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 its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team

Articles for Creation backlog drive

[edit]

Hello Numbermaniac:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in June!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 1 month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 June 2025 through 30 June 2025.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 3200 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:25, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

RM for Officer South and Blind Bight

[edit]

Hello Numbermaniac. Not sure if you are aware, but there is an RfC running at Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board# RfC: The convention for naming Australian place articles. Because of this, I have asked the non-admin closers of your two move requests at [(Talk:Officer South]] and Talk:Blind Bight are reopened. Given this has been a fairly long running issue, and is quite contentious, if you have a strong view please participate in the RfC! Until that is resolved, I would discourage you from raising any more RMs until consensus is clear. Thanks! Dfadden (talk) 22:26, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know. I will have a look at that discussion. – numbermaniac 08:20, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting at CfD

[edit]

Hello! It's generally a bad idea to relist three times at CfD (as you did at Special:Diff/1306957747), particularly if no discussion has happened since the last relist. In any case, thanks for taking the time to help out at CfD! — Qwerfjkltalk 14:30, 28 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers, I will take that into account in the future. Thanks for letting me know! – numbermaniac 16:47, 29 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
