Adoption[edit]

Hey! My name is Jonathan, and I would like to adopt you. I have about 2,500 edits here, and I've been editing since February. Anyways, if you would like to accept my offer, reply either here or at my talk page. If you don't want me to adopt you, you may ignore this offer. Thanks! —Jonathan | Quality, not quantity. 18:43, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to Meetup/Seattle6, a focus group[edit]

Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington (Seattle campus), and my group is reaching out to Wikipedians in the Puget Sound area. We're hosting a focus group designed to gather information on what Wikipedians would like to know about each other when interacting on Wikipedia. Our end goal is to create an embedded application that helps people quickly know more about others' history and activity on Wikipedia, and we feel our design will be much more useful if it's based on insights of users like you.

I'm hoping that the chance to help out local researchers, to engage in lively face-to-face discussion with other Seattle Wikipedians, and to contribute to Wikipedia in a new way will entice you to join us. The session lasts 2 hours and snacks are provided. Sessions will be held on UW Seattle campus - directions will be sent after registration. Your contribution will be greatly appreciated!

Willing and able to help us out? RSVP here. Want to know more? Visit our user talk page . Please help us contact other local Wikipedians, too! Commprac01 (talk) 02:49, 16 March 2009 (UTC) >> Um, no offense, but where the heck do you think I live?[reply]

>> We followed the "This user lives in Washington" user box to your page. We did hold the focus groups and got some really useful feedback. If you're interested in taking the survey based on what we got from talking to people, we'd love to have your feedback. It takes less than 10 minutes, and we do not collect any identifying information. To take the survey, click this link. Thanks! Commprac01 (talk) 00:43, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference[edit]

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer be able to have them marked as minor by default. For more information on what a minor edit is, see WP:MINOR or feel to get in touch.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 21:23, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
