@MrLinkinPark333: I accept your challenge... as I earlier accepted writing up I think it was seven missing women Companions of the Order of Australia several years ago! They should appear in the next week or so. Thanks for thinking of me.--Oronsay (talk) 21:12, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
Thank you so much, Rosiestep. It all came together in the end. I'm amazed how many people were unfamiliar with WEF or had stopped using it ages ago because it was buggy. Everyone is saying what a great way our session was to end Day 2.--Oronsay (talk) 00:01, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
Remember the redirects
Hallo, You added Alta Schutte's full name, but didn't make redirects from it: I've just done so while stub-sorting her, and they've resolved a couple of incoming redlinks (both from backstage lists, rather than articles): see Special:WhatLinksHere/Alta_Schutte. Worth remembering to add them, as people sometimes appear in articles using other versions of their names. Thanks. PamD12:06, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
Documentation of the sessions are currently ongoing. It may take a few weeks to publish all 80 hours of content but you can already watch some of them (linked from each session's Etherpad).
Wikidatapink pony session (a meetup where participants shared wishes and feature requests about Wikidata to the development team)

Lua access for Lexemes is now ready to test on English Beta Wiktionary.
Concluded work on the improved behind-the-scenes system for notifying Wikipedias and co about Wikidata edits that affect them. Nothing should have changed for you.

Hi @Patmastelotto: Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your question. I assume you are the American musician, Pat Mastelotto. To replace a photo in an article, you would need to upload a copyright-free image to Wikimedia Commons first. There is a Category with photos of you on Commons. There are detailed instructions on how to do the upload on that website. When you've done that, you should go Talk:Pat Mastelotto, create a new section and ask that someone replaces the existing image with the one you have uploaded. Otherwise you could come back here and ask me to do it. To edit the article yourself is a conflict of interest and frowned upon on Wikipedia.--Oronsay (talk) 01:26, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
