thanks for the announcement on hewiki.
i would like to draw your attention to the fact that by setting it to 23:00 UTC, you make it most convenience to north american editors, and at the same time very inconvenient to almost anyone who uses any RTL language (such as hebrew, arabic, persian etc.). i think it would be good to schedule some "office hours" which will work better for RTL'ers, lest you'll lose most of the feedback specific to RTL issues.

Curious, why oversight the stuff from Leavewikifactsalone? I don't remember anything close to disruption (aside from the socking alone), nothing warranting oversight. Feel free to email me if you don't want to respond publicly, although if you do, please leave me a {{ You've got mail}} note. Nyttend ( talk) 19:57, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
I know that I already said this at the VP(t) talk page but I wanted to add another thanks for letting me know that I can bring you any cut and paste problems to you in the future. It is always great to be able to go directly to someone who knows how to fix things! enjoy the rest of your week. MarnetteD | Talk 21:47, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
hi, thank you for your clarification. honestly, in the past, i've thought about changing my user name, just to work in english too. but now i'm very busy with my job and i have been reduced my editing for W and so i've kept it. but...it's just a nickname (one of my favorites uk football player....u too? :), and it seems like you're more involved in W than me. so, if you think this could be good for you, i could try to change it in something similar (do you know if is it possible to do it and keep all my items? all the best! ciao! keegan (ita) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.28.41.4 ( talk) 14:59, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
Hello there, a proposal regarding pre-adminship review has been raised at Village pump by Anna Frodesiak. Your comments here is very much appreciated. Many thanks. Jim Carter through MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 06:47, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi. Jimmy has opened a discussion at User talk:Jimbo Wales/Archive 164#Philosophical discussion of hypothetical BLP situation and some have suggested OTRS could play a role in one or more of the proposals. Would you be interested in commenting? -- Anthonyhcole ( talk · contribs · email) 08:20, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
Hello K. I wanted to let you know about this Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Coronation Street characters being moved discussion in case any of the cut and paste moves require your skills. If not no worries. Cheers and enjoy the rest of your weekend. MarnetteD | Talk 23:36, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

Hi Keegan. A friend and I recently worked on a draft of Steven Novella and the page was updated on July 2. In the copy-paste effort from userspace draft the edit history is lost. This was my error; I should have moved the draft instead (as I am learning?) Susan suggested I message you here to check on correcting this loss of history as was required for one of her pages recently. A few updates have been made to the page since July 2 so I don't want to move the draft copy and possibly loose the recent updates. Can you help? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Khamar ( talk • contribs) 08:04, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
Hi Keegan. Your memoserv inbox was full so I couldn't deliver my note, but I wanted to say that I gave you access to #wikimedia-checkuser and #wikimedia-privacy. For some reason you weren't on the access list yet... Please check if you can really join the channels. Trijnstel talk 22:10, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
I have posted to several places (VTR, PUMP, FTNB) that I believe a clear and prominent policy is needed stating edits by OTRS team members driven/suggested/inspired by secret OTRS correspondence with a party that has a COI require disclosure as COI influenced on the talk page of the article edited. Please comment as you see fit. Discussion with Rjd0060 has been cut off and has not provided satisfactory resolution in the opinion of myself and BullRangifer. Your input would be valuable and may provide insight/clarification from the OTRS admin perspective. This issue has been discussed in several places, notably ANI. - - MrBill3 ( talk) 19:18, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
I'm not at all certain I can support that change, especially given the limited (almost null) input. OTRS volunteers are often in the position of not being able to explain why an edit is necessary without violating privacy. The removed verbiage does provide for referring to OTRS admins so the ticket can be checked to ensure no bias or proxy is involved. Without that verbiage, I am concerned we will open the door to endless ew problems. Killer Chihuahua 15:07, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
I almost answered there, but then was afraid people wouldn't get the humor, so I'm pasting it here.

Greetings, thank you for signing up for the Structured Data newsletter and its first edition.

This newsletter will be sent approximately every two weeks, and future editions will be translatable prior to publication. If you're new to Wikidata and want more information about how it works in relation to Wikimedia Commons, you can read an introduction to Wikidata for Commons being drafted.
There will be much more information and activities around the proposal to develop structured data on Wikimedia Commons. This project is a major undertaking and an important step as the chief provider, repository, and curator of media for Wikimedia projects.
Thank you for your participation in such an extensive project, let me know if you're interested in participating in this newsletter. Keegan (WMF) (talk) 04:43, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Hello Keegan,
I'm contacting you because you offered to help with the File metadata cleanup drive on this wiki. Thank you!
There are still many files lacking machine-readable information, and many of them can be fixed by adding special markers to the information and copyright templates. Can you help? Even occasional or small edits are appreciated :)
I'm available via email, IRC or on-wiki to answer questions if you're not sure how to proceed. Let me know if you need help! Guillaume 21:53, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
