Welcome to meta, こちらこそよろしくお願いします :) Why in Japanese in any way? Just curious. --Aphaia (talk) 12:32, 24 April 2012 (UTC) Reply

Thanks Aphaia for the warm welcome. I guess that`s the point, to make people curious :) Thank you again. --Haithams (talk) 13:29, 24 April 2012 (UTC) Reply

You're welcome, it works. Again curious, why not use {{#babel:}}? --Aphaia (talk) 20:11, 24 April 2012 (UTC) Reply

Please see. Was WMPH consulted, by the way? --Nemo 11:20, 8 March 2013 (UTC) Reply

Hi. You're being contacted as you've previously used global message delivery (or its English Wikipedia counterpart). It doesn't feel so great to be spammed, does it? ;-)

For the past few months, Legoktm has built a replacement to the current message delivery system called MassMessage. MassMessage uses a proper user interface form (no more editing a /Spam subpage), works faster (it can complete a large delivery in minutes), and no longer requires being on an access list (any local administrator can use it). In addition, many tiny annoyances with the old system have been addressed. It's a real improvement! :-)

You can test out MassMessage here: testwiki:Special:MassMessage . The biggest difference you'll likely notice is that any input list must use a new {{#target:}} parser function. For example, {{#target:User talk:Jimbo Wales}} or {{#target:User talk:Jimbo Wales|test2.wikipedia.org}}. For detailed instructions, check out mw:Help:Extension:MassMessage.

If you find any bugs, have suggestions for additional features, or have any other feedback, drop a note at m:Talk:MassMessage. Thanks for spamming! --MZMcBride (talk) 05:24, 1 October 2013 (UTC) Reply

Hi. You're being contacted as you're listed as an EdwardsBot user.

MassMessage has been deployed to all Wikimedia wikis. For help using the new tool, please check out its help page or drop a note on Meta-Wiki.

With over 400,000 edits to Wikimedia wikis, EdwardsBot has served us well; however EdwardsBot will no longer perform local or global message delivery after December 31, 2013.

A huge thanks to Legoktm, Reedy, Aaron Schulz and everyone else who helped to get MassMessage deployed. --MZMcBride (talk) 02:36, 22 November 2013 (UTC) Reply

Hello! I've just removed your admin access on this wiki as it was supposed to expire on 31 December 2013 and also removed the self-granted right during that period. If you need the right any further, please see M:RFA or ask Philippe/James. Regards, -Barras talk 20:41, 8 January 2014 (UTC) Reply

Hi! Please check Grants:PEG/Stages/Review_tab - maybe need to fix red links? --Kaganer (talk) 23:09, 10 January 2014 (UTC) Reply

Hi. I think the target pages have not been created yet. These pages are still under construction. Thanks. --Haithams (talk) 03:53, 11 January 2014 (UTC) Reply

Hi Haithams,

I am planning to work on the project titled "Tools for mass migration of legacy translated wiki content" this summer under Google Summer of Code. I have drafted a proposal for the same over the past few weeks. This project is going to help the translation adminstrators like you in a great way, as it would completely automate the tedious manual task of preparing a page for translation and then importing the translations into the Translate extension. You can check the proposal page for detailed information on how I plan to accomplish this.

As you would be an end user of this tool, it would be great if you could go through the proposal and provide feedback/suggestions. Your feedback would definitely help me improve the proposal as well help in creating an even better tool. You can do the same on the discussion page of the proposal or reply here, whichever is convenient for you. I look forward to hearing from you! Thank you!

P.S: I need to submit the proposal to Google by March 19, 2014.

As a Google Summer of Code Intern, I have been working on the Mass Migration tools project for Wikimedia. We are now ready with a minimal working product. The tool helps translators and translation administrators import the old translations into the Translate Extension.

An instance of the same has been set up on labs. You can find some useful instructions on the main page.

Please test the tool and report bugs/suggestions using the link provided on the main page itself. You can have a look at the tracking bug to check already reported bugs.

Looking forward to hearing from you! Cheers. BPositive (talk) 14:33, 14 June 2014 (UTC) Reply

This grant proposal is now live. Please comment on the talk page with any suggestions, or discuss with Aaron in person if you like. I'm also happy to set up a Google video chat. Thanks! --Pine ^✉ 18:10, 30 September 2014 (UTC) Reply

Thanks for your work on this Pine! I'm not sure if you were aware of the existence of this page when the proposal page was drafted. It's a bit outdated, but thought it might help. Feel free to drop me or/and Aaron any questions anytime on-wiki or off-wiki, I will be glad to help. Good luck! --HaithamS (WMF) (talk) 18:14, 1 October 2014 (UTC) Reply

Hello, HaithamS (WMF).It has been a pleasure to help. Thank you for this lovely barnstar. Also I made a request to become administrator of translation here your support is the welcome thanks .Startupevo1 (talk) 11:23, 3 October 2014 (UTC) Reply

When you send massmessage, please include ~~~~ so that bot can archive them / users can know when it was sent. — revi ^☏ 10:25, 8 October 2014 (UTC) Reply

Hi, please don't change Malayalam word താങ്കൾ to നിങ്ങൾ, നിങ്ങൾ is considered as less respectful in some parts (like आप and तुम in Hindi) . Regards.--Praveen :talk 15:36, 9 October 2014 (UTC) Reply

Hi Praveenp. Thanks for the message, and sorry about the disturbance. Please feel free to change the translation as you see fits our community, I added a few new sentences based on a professional translation help, as I personally have no proficiency in the language. I trust your judgment on this :) Regards. --HaithamS (WMF) (talk) 16:12, 9 October 2014 (UTC) Reply

This page was removed from translation system; all translation pages was deleted; category links was commented. Best regards! --Kaganer (talk) 13:00, 29 January 2018 (UTC) Reply

Hi, your page (User:HaithamS (WMF)/watchlist.js) looks to be in the wrong content model and is triggering lots of Lint errors to clean up. Do you need any assistance with this page? — xaosflux ^Talk 20:07, 19 January 2018 (UTC) Reply

I just noticed the year was old and that you are no longer using this account - I have archived that page to its history. Thank you. — xaosflux ^Talk 20:09, 19 January 2018 (UTC) Reply
