But users are registered via a pseudonym, so we do not always have their e-mail address. Other users did not register an e-mail address, or disabled mail delivery. == Techniques == The following techniques exist: * send external e-mail, but then you need to know the e-mail address * send internal e-mail, via MediaWiki (Wikimedia username required) * post a message to the user talk page (Wikimedia username required) All techniques can be done manually, or automatically (via a Python script). == Procedure == You could start to obtain a list of users for which you have an external e-mail address. Then you can try to send an internal e-mail. There is a quota of e-mails that you can send per day, so you better sort the list by descending importance. You could try multiple projects. Users are only active on certain projects/languages. For the rest of the non-delivered e-mail list, and the users who did not register an e-mail address, or disabled e-mail delivery, you can deliver a message to the talk page. All techniques can be automated via a Python script. == User:MediaWiki message delivery == This bot does '''not''' listen to '''<nowiki>{{bots|allow=none}}</nowiki>''' commands on talk pages. It has its own exception list on [[m:Category:Opted-out of message delivery]]. == See also == * [[Pywikibot/Mass user mailing]] * [[Mass mailing procedure]] [[Category:User communication]] qqwj2s93zo3r92fp6yjaaojyv8iwnoi 0 3817 38596 22070 2026-08-07T18:39:29Z Geertivp 171 spam handling 38596 wikitext text/x-wiki '''Google Groups''' are handy to create ''distribution lists'', for which the content is centrally stored on [[Google Suite for Nonprofits|Google Suite]]. Spam is filtered, and can be manually released by the administrator. == Functionality == * Make sure you are logged in the right account. * Messages are kept online (easily searchable, archive; others can join later). * Group members receive the message via email. * Sometimes e-mail delivery is delayed; then you can read the messages online. * Report SPAM and block a group of users (are registered in blocked accounts). == Moderator's spam report == The moderator is receiving a daily list of spam messages. * A daily spam report is available. Normally, all messages are spam, unless a few messages with a valid link and few text. == External links == * https://groups.google.com == See also == * [[Phishing]] [[Category:Google Suite]] [[Category:Spam]] [[Category:Phishing]] [[Category:Administration]] [[Category:Communication]] k9nysozfanpdquz0s2yhf20q2h5s70x 0 12555 38598 2026-08-08T09:39:26Z Geertivp 171 Created page with "'''Uit de marge''' is een project op nlwiki om te schrijven over onderbelichte vrouwen in de literatuur. == Zie ook == * [[w:nl:Wikipedia:Wikiproject/Uit de marge]] [[Category:WikiProject]]" 38598 wikitext text/x-wiki '''Uit de marge''' is een project op nlwiki om te schrijven over onderbelichte vrouwen in de literatuur. == Zie ook == * [[w:nl:Wikipedia:Wikiproject/Uit de marge]] [[Category:WikiProject]] hrbaeiprofcjn26gvnu2tdn9kddu10j
