A hink av seen ye say somwhar that ye ar a native-Scots spikkers. Wid ye be interested in taken on an admin role on this wiki? Soothrhins (tauk) 17:17, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

I'm not opposed to the idea, but I'm not sure what the responsibilities are. my_hat_stinks (tauk) 17:34, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

(en) I've been asked but not sure on that either, I think the responsibilities, or well tasks, can be self defined. This is the nomination that someone put me up for, I just think yourself and C1614 seem more confident on the tech side than I am (and probably ever will be). Soothrhins (tauk) 17:44, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

That sounds like something I'd be capable of. I'm not sure I've done anything too technical yet, but I feel tech skills are like any other; the more you practice, the better you get. Might just be because I'm in software, but modifying templates doesn't seem to difficult once you get a hang of the syntax. my_hat_stinks (tauk) 18:45, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
I can train you if you are willing to self-nominate. –MJL ‐Tauk‐^☖ 02:45, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Am screivin this as ye hae been pairt o the fettle on ither wirds. Am spierin if ye can hae a look at the 'See Forby'?, 'See an aa'?, 'See an aw'? section, an add yer thochts tae the Collogue. It wid be guid tae hae ait settled style afore the Edithon stairts on Sunday. Soothrhins (tauk) 07:39, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

If you are against this, then we can remove it. When I say stuff like this isn't my decision, it really isn't. This is much more your wiki than it is mine. I'm sorry that you were made uncomfortable by my previous actions. I'm trying to get less involved in this project, but I can't do that without help. :/ –MJL ‐Tauk‐^☖ 03:15, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Hey there, as a previous attendee of a Scots Wiki editathon, I thought you might like to know about the December event, Sat 12 & Sun 13th. In addition to the usual wiki support, this month I'm really excited to say that we'll have language support in place from the Scots Language Centre, who'll be online between 12-3 on Zoom on Saturday with us to help with any of your queries.

Just a wee reminder that the next scots wiki editathon takes place this weekend, Sat 30 & Sun 31 January. If you'd like help improving your written scots skills, then folks from the Scots Language Centre will be on Zoom on Saturday (15:00-17:00 GMT) and Sunday (12:00-14:00 GMT) to do some collaborative editing, and I'll be around to help with any wiki queries. Feedback last time was that the language support was really helpful (and fun!), and we'd love to see you. We're looking mainly at improving articles to do with politics, particularly articles about politicians.
