User talk:This, that and the other

Hello.

A barnstar for you!

 * Aw, thanks! :) Before the config files were in Git, I would come across easy site request bugs that had been sitting there for months with no action, and feel really sorry for the communities whose requests were being ignored.
 * And of course you've been doing a few too, so it's a team effort :) This, that and the other (talk) 09:16, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

Sie erhalten einen Orden!

 * Thanks! In many cases the $wg setting pages were filled with outdated or just plain wrong information, and some settings even lacked documentation entirely. So I thought it would be a useful thing for MediaWiki end users. I'm glad you appreciate it. This, that and the other (talk) 22:18, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * You are welcome. I utterly agree with you and this is why I very much appreciate you work. I am only doing this occasionally in case a manual is really messed up. :| I even changed the skin to be able to award the barnstar. Forgot about changing the user language though. However, it took my some "trouble" to award so you can imagine it's value. Cheers and keep on "fighting"! :) --&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93; (talk) 09:19, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

Starting conversion of LiquidThreads to Flow at mediawiki.org
Hello. I'm sending this to you, because you've been one of the top 50 users of LQT on mediawiki.org over the last 360 days, and I wanted to make sure that you'd seen the announcement at Starting conversion of LiquidThreads to Flow at mediawiki.org. There are links in the topic-summary at the top, for other discussions (wikitech-l and Project:Current_issues), and a link to the planned process and timeline (scheduled to begin April 6, with smaller conversions at first). Please do test Flow out at Talk:Sandbox if you haven't tried it recently, and give any feedback/suggestions/requests at that main discussion location. Much thanks, Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 00:07, 28 March 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thanks Florian! I tend to focus on relatively unloved areas, like import, interwiki linking, and change tagging, which fly under the radar of most people. So I don't expect any thanks for my work, but when it does come I really appreciate it. I should also say that your work on MediaWiki hasn't gone unnoticed, so let me take the opportunity to thank you for your contributions to the project.

MediaWiki checkout
See. By the way, that full MediaWiki checkout, without any garbage collecting, is only some 7 GB. If one doesn't have bandwidth or CPU problems, it's not that hard to keep such a checkout locally. Nemo 14:58, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
