This talkpage has been mentioned by a media organization:

Matthew Gault (8 December 2021). "Wikipedia Editors Very Mad About Jimmy Wales' NFT of a Wikipedia Edit". Vice Media. The trouble began when Wales posted an announcement about the auction on his user talk page—a kind of message board where users communicate directly with each other.

Quick note re: Checkuser and privacy

Since you're on the board of the WMF, I figure that you may want to be aware of Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#CheckUser for all new users. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 04:32, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Found this from the talk archives. How would he handle it? 2601AC47 (talk|contribs) Isn't a IP anon 14:54, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@2601AC47: That was a legitimate concern in 2008 when that discussion was carried out but he can't do that sort of thing now. Graham87 (talk) 05:05, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Early Thanksgiving

Understandably, it's 2 days early and today would be George Segal's 100th birthday, but since you may have been distressed by things of late (including a hopefully resolved controversy, which needs complete closure)...

2601AC47 has given you a turkey! Turkeys promote WikiLove and hopefully this has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by giving someone else a turkey, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy Thanksgiving! 2601AC47 (talk·contribs·my rights) Isn't a IP anon 12:32, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Spread the goodness of turkey by adding {{subst:Thanksgiving Turkey}} to their talk page with a friendly message.

So, shall I suggest Moana 2 - in theaters ~~tomorrow~~ - and The Brutalist next month for you to see? 2601AC47 (talk·contribs·my rights) Isn't a IP anon 12:32, 26 November 2024 (UTC) Actually, Moana 2 is in theaters today (I checked), and there are seats for it. 2601AC47 (talk·contribs·my rights) Isn't a IP anon 15:22, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And the reviews are in: 70%+ out of 46 so far according to Rotten Tomatoes (no consensus yet), "an exhilarating, romping sequel with songs that put Wicked to shame" (Tim Robey, The Telegraph), "reminds you that Moana is a certified star" and "another win for Disney animation" (Belen Edwards, Mashable), and 6/10 (middling) by IGN. 2601AC47 (talk·contribs·my rights) Isn't a IP anon 17:37, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
