I noticed you're the new admin on the block! Are you a native speaker? Chewa or Nyanja? Cheers. [[User:Lycaon|Lycaon]] ([[User talk:Lycaon|talk]]) 11:10, 20 September 2018 (UTC) ::@[[User:Lycaon|Lycaon]] Ife tiri bwino. And no am not native to the language am Luvale/Tonga but I have a high level of understanding of the nyanja and chewa language I was born and raised in Zambia. I didn't know of Wikipedia in chewa until after Wikimaina 2018 in South Africa that's how I applied to see if I can fix one or two things here. Thank you.

My wife is Bemba and we visit Zambia every three/four years. I used to be a teacher in Chipata in the late 1980's.

That's a category that you should monitor regularly as the wiki's only active admin. Also, see the newly created [[Madzi]], which, while perhaps not worthy of deletion, is nonetheless a very poor article in need of rewriting. - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 08:06, 17 February 2019 (UTC) : Thanks. - [[User:Dcljr|dcljr]] ([[User talk:Dcljr|talk]]) 00:10, 18 February 2019 (UTC) :: No thank you for taking note i have been busy with Wiki Loves Africa here in Zambia. --[[User:Icem4k|Chabwino]] ([[User talk:Icem4k|talk]]) 05:11, 18 February 2019 (UTC) == Main and user namespace == Hi, as you are one of the most active ones here, I wanted to directly ask you what your view on the interactions between article and user namespace is. [[User:Icem4k/Zanco Mpundu Mutembo]] for example is in <nowiki>[[Category:1936 kubadwa]]</nowiki>. My experience is that the links between these namespaces are limited and article drafts should not be in main namespace categories etc. I'm interested in your POV. --[[User:Zenith4237|Zenith4237]] ([[User talk:Zenith4237|talk]]) 00:02, 15 September 2019 (UTC) == Tech stuff to be done == Hi, hit me up if you have any more tech stuff you want me to do, I'd be very happy to do some more.

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki. When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed. Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin '''will still be able to access the IP'''. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation/Improving tools|better tools]] to help. If you have not seen it before, you can [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|read more on Meta]]. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can [[m:Global message delivery/Targets/Tech ambassadors|subscribe]] to [[m:Tech/News|the weekly technical newsletter]]. We have [[m:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation#IP Masking Implementation Approaches (FAQ)|two suggested ways]] this identity could work. '''We would appreciate your feedback''' on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can [[m:Talk:IP Editing: Privacy Enhancement and Abuse Mitigation|let us know on the talk page]]. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January. Thank you. /[[m:User:Johan (WMF)|Johan (WMF)]]<section end=content/> </div> 18:18, 4 Januwale 2022 (UTC)  == Hi friends == Are you an administrator here or are you even a supervisor? [[User:TriTara|TriTara]] ([[User talk:TriTara|talk]]) 23:03, 11 Meyi 2022 (UTC) == Simple and less exhausting templates == Can we use templates that are simple? This is because the system templates you just adopted that is similar to enwiki is really tiresome as they are written in dates, thus '''Template: POTD Protected/2025-02-19''' which means that if the next template which will be '''Template:POTD Protected/2025-02-20''' doesn't exist yet, then the home (main page) will be rugged. I was thinking of using simpler ones like the ones I made/used on tumwiki that keep looping themselves each month. Also think of the time when you, me and other current editors won't be around, the look of the wiki could suffer. The enwiki is using that system because it has hundreds of thousands of active editors per day, unlike us here who are less, just you and me and 1 editor(as of 19 April 2025). Otherwise, this system will always need an active sysop who would be creating such templates every day, tirelessly. Unless you are planning to stick around always, I am no longer an admin here and hope not to be again in the next few months, as have personal business. If you think this won't affect the wiki then assure me and feel free to continue:) Thanks, [[User:Tumbuka Arch|<span style="color:white;background-color:blue" ><b>Tumbuka Arch</b> (𝑻𝒂𝞘𝞳)</span>]] 13:46, 19 Apulo 2025 (UTC) :Let we work on one.
