I have posted English Wikipedia’s pay rates, long overdue, at WP:PAYRATES. I took the liberty of using your written signature to “sign” the pay slips; I hope you are amenable to this. ―Mandruss ☎ IMO. 11:09, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My last payslip actually had a negative number on it meaning I owe the Wikimedia Foundation. Who in payroll do I contact? Please answer urgently. — Czello ^(music) 11:19, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I honestly couldn’t say. That would be someone within WMF. Just between us, I suspect WMF would never miss that money. ―Mandruss ☎ IMO. 11:33, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

For the time being donatewikimedia.org accepts any amount. 😁 – robertsky (talk) 11:42, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My pay stabilized when I found a quarter at a Wikipedia conference. Randy Kryn (talk) 11:45, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I never got my W-2. Who should I talk to about this? Bobby Cohn 🍁 (talk) 11:47, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your local post office. WMF does not make mistakes, especially in the important area of payroll, and they cannot re-issue W-2s. ―Mandruss ☎ IMO. 11:50, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Besides, you’re in Canada, according to your UP. Since when does Canada have W-2s?? I smell something nefarious afoot. ―Mandruss ☎ IMO. 12:14, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In case you weren’t aware, you might be interested to see that Larry Sanger has logged back in and wrote this. Figured I’d let you know on the chance that you care to read it and no one has told you already. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 20:21, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Don’t miss the talkpage. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 21:17, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There may be some BLP violating comments there (on talk page, not by Sanger but from other editors) but cannot readily confirm just now. Suggest admins with more knowledge of Sanger keep track there. Masem (t) 23:12, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Why is your username called “Jimbo Wales” instead of “Jimmy Wales”? Peterxy（talk） 23:55, 2 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
