- You're way ahead of yourself - at least according to your account request, you speak no languages other than English, and that's one of the crucial parts of editing an other language wiki. Becoming sysop (at least in my case), in particular on the test wiki, takes a general knack of international culture, and ideally a strong intuitive familiarity with MediaWiki.
- Thanks for reminding me about the test wiki, though - I haven't checked it recently because I've been flattened by schoolwork. I appreciate your willingness to help, but at the moment it would seem you don't have the skills we're looking for (which, of course, is not to say that you can't acquire them!).

When to archive
Is there a certain size you would recommend archiving my page at? Or a certain amount of posts? Dominic305 Talk Contribs (625) Scratch 15:51, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- No, just archive whenever you feel like it. I personally go with 20 topics, but KrIsMa goes with 100 and you apparently go with 15 KB. You do you.

HI THERE! LONG TIME NO SEE (on wiki)
一点儿 (BTW, i think), how did you figure out your milestones? 12944qwerty Talk Contribs Scratch 00:32, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- (一点儿, or 一點兒 in traditional, means "a little" - "by the way" is 順便說說, or 顺便说说 in simplified.)
- I just keep track of them as they come up - Special:Editcount/Kenny2scratch lists individual edit counts for each namespace. Additionally, when I actually pass a milestone I don't usually hit it spot on, so I count back in my contribs to find the edit that actually pushed me over.

Hey, I have a question
I see you added a warning area that tells all users they need to switch to ScratchWikiSkin temporarily if they're in the Vector one. I also want this, because my userpage in Vector is not so good looking as in ScratchWikiSkin. Could you please teach me how to do this? Thanks! Nambaseking01 (talk | contribs) 19:58, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
- You could copy it directly from my userpage content, giving credit in an HTML comment.
kenny2scratch Talk Contribs Directory 10:54, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks!
Just so you know though, I normally don't put my credits in comments - I put them all in bulk in a "Credits" section.

Question about the block log
I was scrolling through Recent Changes and I noticed that you blocked a user and then edited the logs so that it didn't show their name, block reason, etc. I get why you censored that info for privacy, but what I don't understand is what's the purpose of having a block log if all it shows is (removed). If you didn't want the info to display publicly, wouldn't it make more sense to make the page only viewable by bureaucrats and actually display the log information or simply delete the log page? 54329 (talk | contribs) 06:57, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
- What you're talking about is an impossibility. We have no way (besides modding MediaWiki core) of hiding block logs automatically, so we simply manually hide all block logs as soon as creating them.
- (We do already have a monkeypatch to hide the Special:BlockList, but hiding particular types of logs, especially when they show up in other feeds, is impossible.)

- Why are blocks censored?
Dominic305 Talk Contribs (625) Scratch 12:38, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
- We do not publicize blocks, because they only attract negative attention to the blocked users, so we protect their privacy in all ways possible so that anyone who has no need to know only knows that someone was blocked, not who was blocked or who blocked them.
