I've been using dark mode lately as is supposed to save a phone's battery and may be less disruptive to the sleep cycle. But some text doesn't read well in this mode and FYI, your black sig is an example -- it's quite invisible against a black background. Perhaps it's a nod to the All Blacks but you might want to consider adjusting it.

Ok, it would be a bit silly to remove the review you just started - but hold off on any more for another 2.25 hours! It's not October in Wikipedia-land yet! -- asilvering (talk) 21:49, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240930214900","author":"Asilvering","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Asilvering-20240930214900-GAN_backlog_drive","replies":["c-Schwede66-20240930220000-Asilvering-20240930214900"]}}-->

Oh, I'll do one at a time; don't worry. As an admin who's looking after the mainpage, I'm fully aware of midnight UTC, Asilvering. I was guided by these words under "Detailed Instructions" (which I shall edit as we should use sentence case): Article reviews started before 30 September but completed after that date can be included.

Oh damn, how many people have looked at this page and not noticed the mistake... that should say "October".

Oh, I thought it was deliberate and you really meant 30 September! But yes, now that you say it, it makes sense and I see what you are getting at, Asilvering.

Hi Schwede, replying to your edit summary. Yes, her common name is Judith Trotter. I was doing your "move a page through a title to create a redirect" trick, knowing that her honour would have been in her full name. I had the intention of then moving to Judith Trotter, before hitting the snag that the existing Judith Trotter page is actually a redirect, and is for the same Judith Trotter. Wasn't sure what I should do at that point and messaged you about it elsewhere!

Heya Just wondering if you could help take a look at this case. An IP address is persisting with wholesale addition of Tamil scripts without consensus nor edit summaries (and displaying identical behaviour to a blocked user). I think it's best to seek urgent intervention on this.
