On your user/talk pages on enWS, the redirects don't work because of the parentheses, you have to remove them for it to work. — [[User:Alien333|Alien333]] ([[Special:Contributions/Alien333|what I did]] & [[User_talk:Alien333|why I did it wrong]]) 12:18, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
Hi! I've just seen your last edition [[Wikipedia:Citing sources with Zotero|here]] in and I'm wondering if there is a problem of translation. There are two extensions for browsers (Chrome and Firefox): I'm using them. They are called Zotero Connector. Could you please explain a bit more those changes on the page? (I'm not interested in the en.wiki page, rather with the current features of Zotero). Thank you.--[[User:Maria zaos|Maria zaos]] ([[User talk:Maria zaos|talk]]) 12:38, 12 April 2020 (UTC)


== Editor experience invitation ==
: Zotero used to ''be'' a Firefox extension, entirely self-contained, but Mozilla abandoned support for powerful extensions and only allow WebExtensions now, so Zotero was forced to convert it into a standalone application, with Zotero Connector extensions to "connect" the two together. https://www.zotero.org/blog/a-unified-zotero-experience/ That Wikipedia page must have been written when Zotero was still an extension, since it said "There are two different options for how to install it" — [[User:Omegatron|Omegatron]] ([[User talk:Omegatron|talk]]) 17:12, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Hello,
The [[WP:ARBCOM|Arbitration Committee]] is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the [[Wikipedia:Arbitration|Wikipedia arbitration process]]. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve.

The [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Policy|arbitration policy]] describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.


The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention.

Kind Regards,
I remember your spectrogram on "My Violent Heart" back playing TYZ ARG and I am trying to find a copy of the song that contained the image of The Presence. I couldnt see it when I ran the album version through the spectrogram. I am working on a project trying to make it immortal in the form of an NFT (non-fungible token) by minting it into the Ethereum Blockchain. I would pay you for your help if there are special setting I need or if you still have to whole file ( I searched your uploads and didnt see it).


[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Research|WMF Research Team]]
Let me know if you still have the file anywhere. I know its been 14 years but I thought I would try.
