Proper bot configuration.
Test to see if the bot is working properly.
@Donald Trung: I signed out to see if my notifications work properly too. --2405:4800:1484:92D8:30D4:7D52:FD13:5179 14:09, 30 July 2017 (UTC)
To see if the Bot configuration works or not.
@Donald Trung: Attempt to see if it also archives images properly. Does the bot 🤖 work with images too? --2405:4800:1484:92D8:30D4:7D52:FD13:5179 14:11, 30 July 2017 (UTC)
Adding these boxes here for archiving and historical relevance.

Ecopark disclaimer.
To whom, this may concern, I have never received nor am I planning on receiving any compensations for uploading photography of Ecopark, I simply think that it will be a future district of Hanoi (yes, I know WP:CRYSTAL) and upload pictures 📷 of notable areas in the district for a future expansion of its Wikipedia article. --Donald Trung (Talk 💬) (Sockuppets 🎭) 11:17, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
- Also I have absolutely no COI with any of the subjects of the pictures 📷 I upload, and every upload is purely for educational purposes.--Donald Trung (Talk 💬) (Sockuppets 🎭)
Coin disclaimer.
I do not sell any coin and/or banknote that I upload hete nor do I plan on, the pictures here are purely for educational purposesa and all these coins are historical items. --Donald Trung (Talk 💬) (Sockuppets 🎭) 11:20, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
Bad writing disclaimer.
One might often see me make odd errors in writing, that's becauseI use a desktop browser on a mobile device. For this reason I might often have odd misspellings that wouldn't normally occur with desktop users. --Donald Trung (Talk 💬) (Sockuppets 🎭) 11:22, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
Busy. (September - 2017).
As of September 11th I am busy with my job again and may not respond swiftly to any enquiries, in fact it mayn even take weeks until I notice something. I place this here as I don't know how to put those boxes on top of my talk page and don't really want to add it. Feel free to inform me here of anything and I'll try to respond as soon as I'm allowed to but I will be slow. --Donald Trung (Talk 💬) (Sockuppets 🎭) 12:01, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

Disclaimer: How I upload pictures 📷 + I'm extremely busy in real life.
Generally I tend to upload a small number of images per time, usually 4 or 5, at most 11 and preferably 1 as Microsoft Edge tends to crash 💥 with the slightest issues (simply leaving the tab might force re-load it causing all the images to be lost) for that reason I tend to draft long descriptions in my e-mail 📧 inbox (as I did with this disclaimer), for that reason you might see “Uploaded from my Microsoft Lumia 950 XL with Microsoft Windows 10 Mobile 📱.” or a variation of this in the description, this is in no way an advertisement for Microsoft, in fact the opposite is true as it indicates how often I would have to draft something before being able to publish it, the majority of my edits are “edit preparations” I do off-wiki, though I try to do this less I still find it to be easier than doing this here, unlike everyone else I simply don't care about edit counts, to me the quality of edits top the quantity and I know that no one here thinks like that but the readers/watchers tend to see “the final product”, not the process and other than the people who edit here no one is actually interested in your edit count so I will mostly continue to prepare texts in my e-mail draft. 📫

Disclaimer (Product pictures, Etc.)
I have no COI with the pictures 📷 of buildings, products, food items, Etc. I upload, all my uploads are exclusively for educational purposes and not to serve any corporate or capitalistic agenda. --Donald Trung (Talk 💬) (Sockpuppets 🎭) (Articles 📚) 15:35, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

Supermarkets and stores disclaimer (again, no COI). 😒
The reason you might see me take pictures 📷 of stuff such as local supermarkets is very easy, images of Dutch supermarkets tend to be scarce and of bankrupt supermarket chains such as Konmar, Super de Boer, and Edah there tend to be almost none, of Supercoop or the older the Coop (which co-existed with “the newer” (read: Orange) Coop) there tend to be literally none despite these supermarkets being national. If Wikipedia or the posterity would ever need these pictures 📷 unfortunately Wikimedia Commons doesn't seem to be offering them at the moment.
Also remember that “the most mundane” pictures 📷 tend to be the most useful 🤔, every day items tend to be the most easily useable pictures, and though I have a love 💘 of photographing “the obscure”, “the special”, Etc. It's pictures 📷 of common every day things that are severely underrepresented that tend to be the most useful for things like Wikipedia. So if you see something every day around you you should look for it on commons here and then take a picture 📷 of it if you can’t find it here. I am literally writing these disclaimers here because the likes of Bad Faith Beetstra assumes in ill faith that every edit I make is a COI, I do not have a COI with Jumbo, Aldi, Lidl, whatever, if you think so then making judgements probably shouldn't be something you should do. Further I am more cautious with restaurants as not every restaurant may serve an educational purpose but in general I tend to look for monuments and the likes or just really old buildings. Sometimes modern stores are located in old buildings and Commons only has black-and-white pictures 📷 of the old ones so always look for some interesting local history. 😉

Religious buildings, Symbols, Etc. disclaimer
Another disclaimer, this time regarding my pictures 📷 of religious iconography and other “spiritual” things, well I find most of those to be very beautiful, and as many churches and temples are very important in local histories and pictures 📷 of those things are certainly useful in illustrating their global and personal influence I myself am not only a strong Atheist but an outspoken anti-theist (though for obvious reasons I remain neutral here), I have no COI with any religion, in fact the opposite is true. Just because I took a picture 📷 of your local Church 💒 doesn't mean that I affiliate with whatever it stands for, but since the #1 rule on Wikimedia projects is to assume a COI I don't have one with any religious or “spiritual” organisation and/or denomination. 😒✝☪🕉☸✡🔯🕎☯☦

I also have no COI with any batch I request. --Donald Trung (Talk 💬) (Sockpuppets 🎭) (Articles 📚) 10:05, 26 September 2017 (UTC)
Dutch Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom 👑 Relations add.
This is too minor to add on the images itself but the buildings were the former local buildings, I didn't include this in the titles because I explained that the building was in the process of being demolished. --Donald Trung (Talk 💬) ("The Chinese coin troll" 👿) (Articles 📚) 10:28, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
Foute afbeeldingen toevoegingen (qua format) op de Nederlandstalige Wikipedia disclaimer.

Cropping my images.
Anyone may crop pictures 📷 of coins and/or paper money 💴 I upload, I mostly work within the limitations of my camera and try as much as possible to centre the pictures 📷 I take, but it’s common for my camera to take a few seconds to finally take the picture 📷 so not all pictures 📷 I take of these subjects may end up perfectly, but when you crop them I do request that you keep all metadata, for that reason I only rarely upload crops myself as my cell.-phone 📞 doesn't retain any additional information 🛈 after the cropping. 😒

Help requested.
@Guanaco: Hello, I’ve been back for a while and want tự continue with my user page from where I’ve left off, only there’s one issue, it was deleted.
And for that reason I would like to request the deletion of my current user pag. It was unjustly deleted with the reason given “lockd acc”, it is not stated in any rule or guideline that user pages should be deleted and seeing how that person bragged about nearly getting half a million admin actions at User talk:Lenin’s Ghost (which I won’t be linking here to not feed that troll) while also unjustfully deleting various images I uploaded as “copyright violations” makes me think that there is a culture of counting admin stats over actual content that benefits the project (especially since my socks got blocked two weeks after they were locked and at no time did I evade my block here). So I hope that I could have my CURRENT user page deleted to later file 📁 and then do an undeletion for the older one which is basically my “to-do list” for images I have yet tự upload. I have already moved the Sockpuppetry templates to my talk page’s archive so if anyone in the future is interested in the case this deletion won’t be an obstacle to that.
I do not wish for the associated talk page to be deleted, only the current (blank) user page.

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- The number of active users listed by
{{NUMBEROFACTIVEUSERS}}
and on Special:Statistics will now only include Wikidata edits as activity on Wikidata and not on other wikis too. [6] - Previously you could create wiki links starting with two colons. Now you need to use one colon. [[::File:X.jpg]] now has to be [[:File:X.jpg]]. There is now a new Linter category. You can see a list on Special:Linterrors/multi-colon-escape. The Linter extension helps you find technical errors in articles. You can read more about using Linter. [7]
Problems
- You will not be able to edit or upload files to Commons for around 30 minutes on 11 October. This will start at 06:00 UTC. This is because of work to let Commons show 3D models. [8]
Changes later this week
- The font in the edit window is monospace by default. Today you can change preferences to another font family or use "the browser default" instead of monospace. Switching to the browser default has only changed the font on Macs. The option to use browser default will be removed this week. [9]
- If you want to print a page or make a PDF of a page you can do so in the side menu. The way the pages look when you do this will change. You can read more on mediawiki.org.
