alienating "others" ? [edit]

Erkan, "others" can be alienating. Consider alternatives such as "How would you describe Wikiversity to the unfamiliar". Hillgentleman|Talk 01:09, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Hello Hillgentleman, good idea. I will take your proposal until someone finds an even better sentence, ----Erkan Yilmaz uses the Wikiversity:Chat (try) 01:13, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Fix [edit]

Voting on the closure of Beta Wikiversity (a multilingual project coordinating new non-English Wikiversities) is now open. -> It has been proposed (since Vasiliev doesn't like to be explicitly named; otherwise I would have preferred an active voice) that Beta Wikiversity (a multilingual project for coordination between wikiversities and for hosting new wikiversities) be closed.

I am not sure, you want that the message should be changed as you suggest after the symbol -> ? ----Erkan Yilmaz uses the Wikiversity:Chat (try) 16:18, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
First of all, it sounds almost like it is "our" (ie the wikiversity community's, or whatever that means) proposal; secondly, the description "a multilingual project coordinating new non-English Wikiversities" is not accurate. So yes, please replace. Hillgentleman|Talk 17:02, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Required correction [edit]

Registration for Wikimania 2008 has closed so please remove the section saying that "Registration for Wikimania 2008 is now open." Thanks, Anonymous101 talk 19:09, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your awareness - removed, ----Erkan Yilmaz uses the Wikiversity:Chat (try) 19:11, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, that was quick. Anonymous101 talk 19:12, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Obsolete? [edit]

It seems like MediaWiki:Sitenotice id no longer needs to be updated to show new messages for people who have clicked dismiss the old message? --mikeu talk 02:53, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
