Click here to message me – I will reply as soon as I can. All replies will be made directly underneath your message on this page. Do be aware though, that I do not use talkback. I do on the other hand, use pings as I've more or less given up on watchlists, but may not always ping you (usually, if the message has gone unanswered for about more than 12-18 hours, then I'd usually give a ping). Threads on this page are archived every 14 days of inactivity, but mass mail messages may get archived earlier, while active threads might get archived later than 14 days of inactivity, but how this page is archived isn't consistent merely because a bot couldn't do its job. |

- Users of the Android Wikipedia App in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia can see the new Rabbit Holes feature. This feature shows a suggested search term in the Search bar based on the current article being viewed, and a suggested reading list generated from the user’s last two visited articles.
- The global reminder bot is now active and running on nearly 800 wikis. This service reminds most users holding temporary rights when they are about to expire, so that they can renew should they want to. See the technical details page for more information.
- The next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 13 January 2025 because of the end of year holidays. Thank you to all of the translators, and people who submitted content or feedback, this year.
- View all 27 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week. For example, a bug was fixed in the Android Wikipedia App which had caused translatable SVG images to show the wrong language when they were tapped.

Transition glasses
[edit]You mentioned "transition glasses" in your 2023 edits of Eye care. Could you please add a short explanation about what they are. I couldn't find the term in Wikipedia or Wiktionary, so I suppose I'm not the only one who doesn't see what you are talking about – and I'm not the only second-language reader we have. –LPfi (talk) 10:25, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
- @LPfi: Done – it is the term that my optometrist uses (also see this by opsm), but I'm not sure if there's a more specific term used elsewhere, or if it's a term used outside Australia. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 11:41, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
