p.s., I don't speak Sinhala. Sorry. Very interesting language though.
MediaWiki:Edittools
Hi Kylu,
It would be nice to have http://si.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Edittools page for the Sinhala wikipedia like
හින්දි - hi:MediaWiki:Edittools
ප්රංශ - fr:MediaWiki:Edittools
ඉංග්රීසි - en:MediaWiki:Edittools
I had created a template page Template:Edittools in July 2006, for us to create a prototype MediaWiki:Edittools page for si.wikipedia.org.
Please create one if possible similar to the prototype Template:Edittools page, on the page http://si.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Edittools.
I think you might be able to do it being a Sysop user. There is a discussion topic in the Wikipedia:කෝපි කඩේ page under "MediaWiki:Edittools page for Sinhala Wikipedia / සිංහල විකිපීඩියාව සඳහා MediaWiki:Edittools මෙවලම්පිටුව", which was added in in July 2006.
Thanks, -- රුවන් (User:Ruwan) 2006 නොවැම්බර් 24 සිකුරාදා (24 November 2006)
Temporary adminship
Hello Kylu. I'm sorry, your temporary adminship period expired. Should you need an extra time, please apply another request on meta or let me know. Thank you for the work done so far. Bye. --Paginazero 11:12, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
- I was overly cautious when I originally asked for one week: Actually, I got it all done in one afternoon, the rest of the time it was pretty much just sitting there. I probably don't need to ask for permanent admin status quite yet. :D Thanks though! Kylu (speak!) 00:45, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
Thanks Kylu for your interest and helping out with the Sinhala Wikipedia, in every possible way you could, even though you have stated you don't speak Sinhala. Your help is apreciated, Keep on the good work Kylu! Thanks, -- රුවන් (User:Ruwan) 2006 දෙසැම්බර් 02 සෙනසුරාදා (02 Saturday 2006) 01:03 (UTC)
Re:Talk:W/w/w/w/index.php
Yeah that stuff is getting out of hand. Hopefully the filtering will get implemented soon. Until then I think we may need to protect the talk pages of the w/w/whatever pages currently protected. --snowolfD4 ( talk / @ ) 01:39, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
- I'm going to try some experiments with cascade protection, I think, if the RfA thing goes through. BTW, can you come up with a list of translations for the interface messages? Talk:මුල් පිටුව#Translation of the Interface into Sinhalese? Kylu (speak!) 03:57, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
Namespace Translation
Translation is over please--Srimalpunchi 04:08, 24 ජනවාරි 2008 (UTC)
- Bugzilla:12794 submitted. It may take a while for the changes to commit. Kylu (speak!) 00:40, 26 ජනවාරි 2008 (UTC)
RE: betawiki: Sinhala translation
Thanks for the invitation. I'll join in with the work as soon as possible. --Lee 15:09, 4 මාර්තු 2008 (UTC)
Hi
Hey Kylu, sorry for not responding to your mail and all. I see there are a lot of questions there :-) I'll get back to you when I go through them. --Lee 16:15, 29 ජූනි 2008 (UTC)
Opposing my request for Adminship
It's o.k. you have opposed my request for adminship in Sinhala Wikipedia. It's your judgement; it's your decision. But, some statements you have made are totally false. For example you have mentioned "I've tried to discuss Student.IRQUE.UOC's uploads with him but I don't think he sees the notes on his talkpage."- This is totally false; you never tried contact me over this issue. As a matter of fact I open my account every day and read my talk page. Please clarify this and please note that your comment may have affected the decision of others too.Srimalpunchi 07:31, 28 ජූලි 2008 (UTC)
- I think you very drastically misunderstood that whole section. The person with the oppose vote is Lee. I merely left you a question that was directed at you. By "him" I meant the UOC account. If you check the UOC talkpage, you'll see the numerous notes I've left him (as in UOC) regarding these uploads. I wasn't talking about you at all, and I still expect you to look over the situation and leave an answer explaining how, as an administrator, you would deal with that situation. :) I'll cross-post this to the relevant si.wp pages also. Kylu (speak!) 16:22, 28 ජූලි 2008 (UTC)
- I am extremely sorry about this "drastic misunderstanding". May be I will have to sharpen my English; May be its inferior upbringing. I sincerely wish that Lee would have "understood" your comment without any pitfalls. Regarding posting a comment on Lee's user page, sorry about my ignorance. It was there for about three hours and I transferred it to his talk page yesterday itself. However, it seems to have exposed my inferiority. So, I have decided to quit this request for Adminship. I will continue to be a normal user and help Sinhala Wikipedia grow in whatever manner. By the way, if you have felt that 5 Administrators are enough for Sinhala Wikipedia, as you have promptly indicated to Lee at the very inception, you would have boldly said so instead of commenting in "difficult to understand" English.Srimalpunchi 04:31, 29 ජූලි 2008 (UTC)
- I did not speak at all about your English skills or upbringing. Your upbringing is none of my business. I'm sure you have a lovely upbringing. Maybe I use English that is too complicated. I apologize.
- I think Lee understood my questions just fine. He addressed the problem I brought up, though I am still curious how you would have handled it. Administrators have to deal with problems like these in a delicate manner, and as you're wanting adminship, it's a fair question. One that you have not yet answered on that page, by the way.
- I think placing the note on his userpage was an error. This does not mean that you're a bad person or that you will make a bad administrator. I think you need a little experience first.
- Thank you for deciding to continue helping the Sinhala Wikipedia. I am here primarily for technical help, since I am more experienced with many obscure tricks that many these projects run. I do not have experience with Sinhala, and look foreward to the day when I can leave the project to people who natively speak the language.
- The more administrators here, the better. I do not think 5 is enough. I would like to see more.
- Being an administrator requires more than just knowledge of when to delete pages and block users: No matter how many times we say "administrators do not solve disputes", people still come to us to solve disputes. They come to us with problems that have nothing to do with the extra buttons we are given. You can point these people at the proper procedures, but they will always expect that you, as an administrator, know how to solve a problem.
I asked you the question because I wanted to see how you would solve the problem. I am still waiting for you to answer on that page, and depending on your answer, I may vote for or against you. Please don't give up quite so soon. Kylu (speak!) 01:51, 30 ජූලි 2008 (UTC)
- I gave a thought for few days, and decided not to respond to your question. This is simply because I am hurt deeply in my heart. However you try to patch-up your mistake in your comments it surfaces. I am sorry to pronounce this time and again. Hence, I decided to quit the race with my head high. Do not bother to ponder your brain whether to vote for me or not. I am not angry with Sinhala Wikipedia which I strongly believe does not belong to Administrators but to all Sinhala & other Wikipedians. Hence, I will continually and strongly support and nourish it to my utmost capability. I will not let Sinhala Wikipedia fall prey to whims & fancies of certain individuals too. ---Srimalpunchi 06:15, 1 අගෝස්තු 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe Lee can explain what I meant later, but I didn't say anything bad about you at all. I've tried to explain. You may also be interested in Sinhala Wiktionary which is currently due to be closed due to lack of activity. Kylu (speak!) 00:29, 2 අගෝස්තු 2008 (UTC)
Message in si.wikt
Hi, Kylu. I left a message for you here --Piolinfax (Talk) 20:38, 14 අගෝස්තු 2008 (UTC)
Image Uploading process
Dear Kylu,
I've translated into Sinhala,image uploading process as like an English Wikipedia process. That translated text located in the the talk page. I've invited to Lee and නන්දිමිතුරු to review and correct that. After reviewing them and other administrators we'll able to fix it. If so, We can prevent unnecessary image uploading well. In addition I've create some message where we can use it,when copy right status is not listed on images. And also created Welcome message for new users with containing basic information. You can find out their form below.
Best Regards asiri 08:03, 1 නොවැම්බර් 2008 (UTC)
Reminder to check this often for fixin' Kylu (speak!) 09:58, 17 මාර්තු 2009 (UTC)
