CirrusSearch
Hi Dan. We'd love to try out this new search at pt:voy. Texugo (talk) 16:42, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Texugo, thank you! I've asked for people to note any objections on the page where I posted. Hopefully there will be none and we can turn it on. You may want to join the wikitech-ambassadors mailing list where we're discussing the search rollout a bit. Thanks again! :-) --Dan Garry, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 17:21, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

There's a consensus to go ahead with the new search on pl:voy. We'd like to try it out and help with implementing it on a larger scale :-) Kpjas (talk) 10:48, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

Rename oauth app?
Hi, thanks for approving my CropCrop, but I just renamed it to CropTool... :) Is there any way to rename an OAuth app or should I just register a new one? Danmichaelo (talk) 17:41, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Hey Danmichaelo. Thanks for testing OAuth!
 * I hadn't realised the name of the app was wrong. When I read your message and realised the incorrect name, I laughed for about 10 mintues! I guess I'm easy to amuse. :-p
 * Right now the only way to rename the application is to go through the approvals process again, as if you're authorising a separate application. I realise that's sub-optimal, so I've filed a bug report for that feature request. See 57631 for more information.
 * If you decide to create a new request with the correct name, let me know and I can deactivate the old request and active the new one.
 * Best regards,
 * --Dan Garry, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 23:23, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
