XfD poll suggestion

Hi Diriector Doc! I cannot see the Google Form in advance of it opening, but I'd encourage you to include in it a vote for best non-XfD prank. I find that such pranks are often more complex/creative than XfD ones, and we should be encouraging that by offering recognition. Sdkb ^talk 15:22, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

I was considering something like that. I also had the idea for other categories, like "favourite prankster" where people nominate someone to receive special recognition.

I will definitely add to the Google Form. You will not be disappointed. Diriector_Doc├─────┤^Talk_Contribs 15:28, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	Thanks a lot for running this year’s April Fools Day poll. The poll is an awesome way to wrap-up April Fools Day and I always enjoy reviewing the result charts. See you in 2025! Spirit of Eagle (talk) 00:43, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Editor experience invitation

Purge

If you see unexpected red warning messages after an edit purging wikipedias own cache https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Eyjafjallaj%C3%B6kull&action=purge is your friend. This error happens if the backend wiki servers get overloaded. With normal wikipedia functioning this page is processed in half the time it takes to generate this message.

Ah. Thank you. I was very confused to see that every template was broken, and even more so when looking through the history to see what change could have possible broken things.

I appreciate the explanation. Diriector_Doc├─────┤^Talk_Contribs 16:20, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
