| Hi, Tony. I've just seen ]. I wonder I it might be worth just adding a note saying that an IPv6 address is one with colons rather than with dots. Possibly by now everybody knows that, but I wouldn't be totally surprised if there are still a few administrators who don't; certainly there were some as recently as just a few years ago. ] (]) 13:02, 1 December 2022 (UTC) | Hi, Tony.

It's that time of year - have you thought again about running for ArbCom? Beyond My Ken (talk) 05:29, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
- Even if I wanted to run, haven't been active enough this year where I'd have a shot. Though, on the bright side, this was the last day I'll have to work more than 8 hours until February... TonyBallioni (talk) 06:07, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- Enjoy your free time - hopefully we'll see you around more often. Beyond My Ken (talk) 07:32, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- So, you were in town and didn't even stop by my page for a "hello" and a virtual glass of bubbly? You've changed, man.-- Ponyo 17:35, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

- The article creation at scale RfC has been closed.
- An RfC on the banners for the December 2022 fundraising campaign has been closed.
Technical news
- A new preference named "Enable limited width mode" has been added to the Vector 2022 skin. The preference is also shown as a toggle on every page if your monitor is 1600 pixels or wider.

Miscellaneous
- Tech tip: A single IPv6 connection usually has access to a "subnet" of 18 quintillion IPs. Add
/64to the end of an IP in Special:Contributions to see all of a subnet's edits, and consider blocking the whole subnet rather than an IP that may change within a minute.

IPv6
Hi, Tony. I've just seen User:TonyBallioni/Just block the /64. I wonder I it might be worth just adding a note saying that an IPv6 address is one with colons rather than with dots. Possibly by now everybody knows that, but I wouldn't be totally surprised if there are still a few administrators who don't; certainly there were some as recently as just a few years ago.

- Hi JBW, feel free to add it wherever you think is best. Agree that it could be a useful addition but don't know the best way to phrase it! TonyBallioni (talk) 05:06, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
Smash!
You've been squished by a whale!
Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know you did something really silly.
