Blank pages by SpecialBannerController ?
Hi Kaldari, Since the Fundraising has started I get quite a few blank pages here and there. The following I have gathered so far: which is a use of  that is not in an inline -tag. (added in r72932) Krinkle 18:46, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Mostly (if not only) occurs on wikis where I have not close-hidden the banner (I do a lot of cross-wiki stuff, there's a lot of wikis I visit I haven't visited before in the cache)
 * Mostly (if not only) occurs when the page is not cached
 * Special:BannerController&cache=/cn.js contains:
 * I use Safari 5

Updated CentralNotice documentation
Hello,

I am still "diving in" to find out how those things work, so I have have updated some documentation. I would be grateful if you could review that since I might have misunderstood something. I am particularly concerned about my changes to brion's initial design notes. Thanks! « Saper // talk » 13:01, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

WikiLove To ar.wikipedia
Hello Kaldari. I noticed the new feature in English Wikipedia - Wikilove, I liked it. I also noticed that you're a member of the team of designers. Is it possible to transfer the WikiLove feature button to Arabic Wikipedia, and how? Thanks in advance. --Zack 22:00, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, it does. --Zack 00:17, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

Hey Kaldari, WikiLove went Arabic finally, still one more thing: the Make Your Own tab (ar: آخر "Other") is not functioning, do you have any idea where does that come from? (see wikipedia:ar:user:Kaldari for instance, and wikipedia:ar:mediawiki:WikiLove.js for the script) --Zack 18:39, 29 July 2011 (UTC) When any of the four tabs is hovered, a small segment of the left side appears in the right side, is there something we can do about it? --Zack 19:10, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it has to do with the right-to-left handling. I'll see if I can fix it. Kaldari 21:46, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Signature in defaultOptions.js
> It is recommended to simply copy this file to your MediaWiki:WikiLove.js and change it to your wishes.

When I did this, the four tildes got expanded into my user name, and hence all the barnstars have my name as the sender. What's the right way to paste defaultOptions.js into this page?

Ribbons
How about adding Ribbons to wikilove?

Extension:WikiLove
It would be useful to be able to translate WikiLove for different language wikis or multilingual ones. It could be at. Ebe123 09:47, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Possible problem regarding reusing the js file of WikiLove
I was not sure if its license was compatible with CC-BY-SA. Please take a look at Thread:Extension_talk:WikiLove/Reusing_the_default_WikiLove.js. --Whym 22:02, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Good point, I'll see about changing the licensing. Kaldari 01:21, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Soc 2012
Hi Ryan,

Jeroen suggested you're possibly the person to speak to regarding my 'begging' for some work to improve Wikinews' toolset via Summer of Code 2012. Since I, personally, have zero confidence I could get up-to-speed and implement something robust enough, I'm going cap-in-hand for any and all input/advice/suggestions I can get.

If you check the jottings linked-to from my userpage, you'll see Wikinews is trying rather hard to use FlaggedRevs as a 'quite formal' CMS review mechanism.

How I would put the current situation is to say that, "everyone on Wikinews is too close to the problems to see a goood, reusable, solution." However, the small userbase we have are all quite smart people, able to give quality feedback on suggestions and proposals, and not afraid to try new things. Wikinews was first to put Vector live as a default, and we would've taken FlaggedRevs before deWP, had the chance been given to us.

I'm pushing, if not outright begging, around the MediaWiki wiki for people to look at Wikinews as a testbed for bleeding edge stuff. Visual editor? We want it last week. More sophisticated forms-type stuff? Yes please!

Any help, or constructive criticism, you can provide is most welcome. --Brian McNeil (talk) 18:01, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

Application for GSoC
Hi Ryan,

I had mailed my proposal for ideas a couple of weeks back on the Wikitech-I mailing list, & based on a lot of suggestions & discussions, I created my User page for GSoC Ideas.

After reviewing the MediaWiki GSoC page, I reckon that any Gadget (javascript/jQuery) related projects would be mentored by you.

So, kindly let me know your suggestions on the list of ideas that I have in mind & their feasibility.

Also, could you please give me your email address?
