Talk Page Protection

Hey. And thanks for what you did. I warned DragonKing22 about his last threat he made toward me last month about his persistent vandalism on the Adelaide Productions page. This is the second time this year that I've got attacked by another user here. Is it okay that you protect my user page for a certain period of time? King Shadeed 00:11, July 17, 2015 (UTC)

Reminder to participate in Wikipedia research

Hello,

I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Wikipedia. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.

Take the survey here.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
