Thank you Peaceray!
I have a number of questions—writing out here to help myself use the mental frame of conversation to draw out my goals, curiosities, and current confusions, but will likely go follow up on elements myself.
  • I'm interested in power tools: effective or commonly used ways to query for—data the community finds interesting.
    • I'm curious what level of activity triggers your threshold to prompt a Template:WelcomeMenu!
    • I'm also interested in bulk-editing tools. I made a series of around two dozen edits recently by hand, adding {{About| hatnote templates to disambiguation pages.
      • I'm curious about how to do edits in bulk.
      • And where I should raise discussion about it. Perhaps here on my user page, or on a user (project) subpage.
  • I'm curious why the tooltip previews don't appear (for me) on mouseover of links in your post.
  • I plan to follow up with wiki "adoption" or joining or contributing to a WikiProject.
  • Heck, how do I check watchers, or how does the reply mechanism work here. What are the ways of (and levels of) bringing other's attention to edits, or questions, or topics, with appropriate light but effective insistence.

Hi Mcint!
That's it for now! It is late here, & time for me to get ready for bed. Peaceray (talk) 06:00, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
