Dead flowers for the torn apart Laid at the grave to heal a broken heart –♠Vamí_IV†♠ 09:00, 2 November 2022 (UTC) |
While we've almost never interacted, I've always seen you as a force for good on the project. Losing such a positive contributor to the community is always a shame, but it's especially sad that this all stemmed from the tiniest of misjudgements during a stressful situation.
You'll be missed, but I trust you to be doing the right thing. Take care, and thanks for all your contributions over the years. WindTempos (talk • contribs) 13:47, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for your many years of dedicated service to the project, and best of luck wherever your journey takes you! DanCherek (talk) 13:53, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
Joining the chorus of those saddened to see you go. I remember when I was first starting out as an editor, and at least one other admin was completely dismissive when I asked for help, you were there to help me learn the ropes, and trusted me with permissions like rollback. I honestly don't know if I would have stayed a Wikipedia editor for good after first joining if you hadn't been there to guide me. You've done an immense amount of work to make this website run smoothly, never been afraid to speak your mind even when it wasn't popular, and stood up for those who lacked a voice. We will continue on without you, but it will never be the same. Your humor, wit, and kindness above all will be sorely missed. This is the closest I've ever come to wanting to quit Wikipedia myself; I've decided to stay on behalf of the readers who depend on us every day. But I remain aghast at this situation and how poorly ArbCom handled it, and will agitate for changes, including in the membership of the committee. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 14:26, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
...for all you've done here and best of luck for the future. You will be missed. --Ferien (talk) 17:01, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
just wanted to thank you for everything you've done for me and the community. I wish I had done more for you during these times, but I thought that if I stayed away from it all it would help deescalate things. you've always been a net positive for the project, and I hope you'll reconsider it and return. Isabelle Belato 🏴☠️ 19:18, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
For every administrative action you made over the years. ~~ lol1VNIO (I made a mistake? talk to me) 19:32, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
I do not recall us interacting, but I have always looked up to you as a powerful voice within Wikipedia's LGBTQ+ community and all-around cool editor. Thank you for all you've done TNT. Fare thee well, and don't be a stranger. --Dylan620 (he/him · talk · edits) 21:46, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

I’m so sorry to see you go. I’m at a complete loss for words with regards to what’s happened, but I wanted to say thank you for all your help and kindness over the years. I wish you the very best. Patient Zerotalk 23:39, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for all of the contributions you have made to this project. Until next time, — Clyde!Franklin! 17:25, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for all you have done for the encyclopedia and its community. Our paths never closely crossed, but of course I know and admire your work as an admin and editor. I've always liked your user name because it had two distinct interpretations (if not more than two): There's no time...like get it done now because if not now when? and There's no time...like time is a construct and all things exist simultaneously. I hope the outpouring of love and appreciation from all your colleagues here gives you some sense of comfort and that you return after taking some time to rest and recover from the recent high drama. Netherzone (talk) 21:40, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
Sorry to see you go, thanks for all your contributions and good luck with the future! echidnaLives - talk - edits 03:59, 4 November 2022 (UTC) |
Very briefly: In real life I’m in my fifties and a senior attorney. (My most employment-worthy professional “superpower” is parsing procedural rules on the fly in emergency situations. [I think my compound-modifier-hyphenation reflex is of greater benefit to the written English corpus, but anyway.])
I supervise a bunch of young lawyers and you are a far better writer and a far more dedicated advocate than any of them. I don’t have hiring authority, but I would pitch a hissyfit and demand that you be interviewed upon my firm’s next opening, if you had a law license in my state.
I haven’t had the time or wherewithal to be competently up to date on this issue. You seem to have gone outside of procedure and gotten in trouble for breaching privacy concerns. That’s not good, but you meant well and you were brave.
Please don’t leave this project. Please step outside the Wikiverse and recognize that even though you might have done something inappropriate, you at least DID IT, and few would have, and you have that arrow in your quiver forever.

@TNT, you are such a beautiful Song and I, personally, will miss your uniqueness on this project. I stated before that I appreciate you. Now let me add that I will always appreciate you. Your impact here is undeniable. You have affected so many of us in a positive way, even when we may have disagreed. What ever you do going forward I hope with the sincerest desire that it is successful and I have no doubt it will be. Thank you for every contribution. Your passion, your compassion and your dedication to this project has been amazing to see. Many hugs and keep singing you. Remember what I said. As valuable as your contributions are here, what makes you invaluable has everything to do with you and nothing to do with this encyclopedia. Warmest hugs! You are loved! --ARoseWolf 15:08, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
Hey, TNT, I don’t know exactly what’s happened, just that you have announced on your user page you are leaving. We didn’t interact on here much, but I was very much aware of you and thought you were a great contributor and admin, and I really admired how you put your photo up on your page, I really admire that. If you see this, thank you for your service.
Blanchey (talk) 17:49, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
I'm so sorry to see you go, and I hope that'll look less like a necessary permanent solution for you in time. Best wishes to you, either way. Valereee (talk) 15:24, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for your incredible work on Wikipedia, which has improved the lives of so many readers who will never know your name.
As usual, I'm late to the drama and don't really understand it. It's only, alas, after leaving Wikipedia that a volunteer receives a fraction of the credit they deserved to receive while here. Good luck in the future. — Bilorv (talk) 21:04, 5 November 2022 (UTC) |
Thank you for being a wonderful, inspiring person to work with on this project.
I hope you return someday, but I understand if you don't.

The 2022 WikiCup has drawn to a close with the final round going down to the wire. The 2022 champion is
During the WikiCup, contestants achieved 37 featured articles, 349 good articles, 360 featured article reviews, 683 good article reviews and 480 In the news items, so Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors. Well done everyone! All those who reached the final round will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation and review. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, these prizes are awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round, or the overall leader in this field.
Next year's competition will begin on 1 January and possible changes to the rules and scoring are being discussed on the discussion page. You are invited to sign up to take part in the contest; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors, and we hope to have a good turnout for the 2023 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners and finalists, and thank all participants for their involvement!

I'm just caught up with seeing that you're gone... That makes me VERY sad. You've always seemed like a valuable editor and you always did little things to help me (and likely others,) out during my time here... I don't know what led to this, but I really hope to see you back at some point. Best of luck!!! You'll be missed. SPF121188 (talk this way) (my edits) 20:18, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
Hi there. Being less active recently, I somehow managed to miss all of this, but I'm piecing it together now. I don't think we ever really interacted, but I've noticed and appreciated your work across Wikimedia-space. Thank you for all you've done, and I wish you well in your future endeavors. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 04:45, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
I got caught up with life recently and came back to find that you were leaving- I have to thank you for making my time here on the Wiki and the Discord amazing. I hope I'll get to see you on-wiki again someday, but that's something entirely up to you, eh. Best of luck to your future endeavors, mate. Padgriffin Griffin's Nest 13:46, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

I have seen you are interested in the pronunciation and it is not the first time I see the options A-N-I or Annie. I have an other pronunciations you might also can include as a possibility. I often think of the ANI as Ahni. In Ahni the Ah is pronounced like the A of Barn and the NI like the NI in Barney. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 00:47, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
I didn't know that you would come back so quickly in about three weeks. I thought you were leaving Wikipedia. Well, it has been a good time to rest for a moment, I think. Welcome back to Wikipedia, and have a nice time! MarioJump83 (talk) 00:53, 24 November 2022 (UTC)

I noticed what happened. Read up on the whole case from start to back. I feel awful for you and the headache inducing mess that must have been. Jeez, why can the Wikipedia community sometimes rival Mean Girls in terms of drama? Anyways, welcome back to adminship and congrats.

Hi. I'm currently working on User:KiranBOT/MOSTREFS (history). I have created a pywikibot script utilising CSV files that works fine through my computer. But if I run the same script from toolforge, then the CSV files remain unchanged. I fiddled with file permissions, and path in the script but still no effect. Would it be okay if I sent you a detailed email including the .py file? If you are uncomfortable, I can send the script in plain text. —usernamekiran (talk) 01:28, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
