Vote on a bug

A large number of users expressed their desire to have interwikies sorted in a site-specific order. Many users would also like to have a custom, user defined order, so that if you know Lithuanian and French, you can see links to them first. Developers need to be persuaded that this is a needed feature. Please see comments and vote for the bug 2867.

Bot description

Hi!

Please leave a small description of your bot on da:Wikipedia:Botformidlingen.

Thanks in advance,

I dont know why my bot “GedawyBot” (on Arabic Wikipedia) sometimes deletes the "IV" interwikis? check this link.--Mohamed ElGedawy (talk) 20:03, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

Bot status Dutch wikipedia

Dear Yurik, I just nominated your bot on the Dutch wikipedia due to heavy inactivity. Please contact me on the Dutch Wikipedia if you want to keep using this bot. Grashoofd (talk) 12:20, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your work

Yurik, thank you for all your past contributions to MediaWiki! I also live in New York City, in case you would like to get together and talk about MediaWiki sometime. There are actually a few of us MediaWiki folks here (Yaron, Josh Lerner, and John Du Hart at least).

Danish userpage

Hey, you write that the user of the same name in Danish wiki is a bot, but all bots not have a username ending with bot? At the same time you insert your own message in English on user and talk page instead of the traditional template as user: Palnatoke inmates, just to point out that it is a bot as you type (which may well vlre better use for when they is hard to see they are a bot regularly leading user name on it). Have a nice evening continued. --80.161.143.239 (talk) 19:56, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Russian translation

Hello. I was on Wikipedia:Translators available and notice that you were on the list for Russian to English translators and wondered if you could translate Maria Vladimirovna of Staritsa and/or Vladimir of Staritsa? Thanks.--Queen Elizabeth II's Little Spy (talk) 00:05, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
