Welcome to my talk page. Leave me a message!
I'm moving into a period of low activity. Do not expect a rapid response from me.

Just saw the closing down sign. Sorry to see you go, you're a Wiki institution and your wisdom and tireless optimism will be sorely missed. On behalf of the old fogies of yesteryear club, hope this is simply a refurbish and refit and the "open for business" sign goes up again soon. Either way, all the best. -- Euryalus ( talk) 19:45, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
Hi WTT! Just saw this at BN. Saddened to see it, but hope your time away is successful in every measure you hope for, and then some. I truly hope to see you around occasionally in the immediate future, and around regularly when things "calm down." In any case, thanks so much for all the good you've done for Wikipedia in general, and for me in particular. Be well! 78.26 ( spin me / revolutions) 01:56, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
All the best in whatever life throws at you, Dave. I have enjoyed working with you these past couple years. I don't believe I have ever mentioned this to you, but this is what motivated me to stick around and start taking this project seriously. It might not have been a big deal for you at the time, but I've never forgotten. Take care. – bradv 05:35, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
Best wishes, Worm, for whatever life is holding for you outside Wikipedia. We met at the Judges Lodgings Event in Lancaster many years ago, and I've seen you being wise around the encyclopedia ever since. Thanks for your contributions. Pam D 07:53, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for your long service, Worm That Turned. Wishing you good luck and good health. starship .paint ( RUN) 15:38, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
I really am amazed at the people who've turned out to say goodbye, so many names of people who I've worked with over the years, who've made such a significant difference to the encyclopedia. Thank you all for taking time to say goodbye to an old fogey who's been fairly quiet for a long time, poking behind the scenes. I wish you all the best for the future.

Hey there! This is to let you know that phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship (RfA) review is now no longer accepting new proposals. Lots of proposals remain open for discussion, and the current round of review looks to be on a good track towards making significant progress towards improving RfA's structure and environment. I'd like to give my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has given us their idea for change to make RfA better, and the same to everyone who has given the necessary feedback to improve those ideas. The following proposals remain open for discussion:
To read proposals that were closed as unsuccessful, please see Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I/Closed proposals. You are cordially invited once again to participate in the open discussions; when phase I ends, phase II will review the outcomes of trial proposals and refine the implementation details of other proposals. Another notification will be sent out when this phase begins, likely with the first successful close of a major proposal. Happy editing! theleekycauldron ( talk • she/her), via:

Hi there! Phase I of the Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II. The following proposals have gained consensus:
See the project page for a full list of proposals and their outcomes. A huge thank-you to everyone who has participated so far :) looking forward to seeing lots of hard work become a reality in phase II. theleekycauldron ( talk), via MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 08:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
