Talk:NewRecurringDonorWelcome
Still used?
Is this page used for anything outside the wiki? Jonathan Bennett 00:19, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
- Yes. This page is configured in PayPal to forward to after setting up a recurring donation. This needs to stay in place. --V4hn (talk) 14:50, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
- @V4hn: Can we please rename this page according to our page naming conventions (i.e. moving the page which creates an automatic redirection in the wiki system)? I mean just a few people need to edit it anyway, right? Why do you not use a page in the OSMF wiki if it needs to stay the same? Seems a bit odd... --Tigerfell

- @Tigerfell: I guess it might make sense to change the redirect to OSMF and unify the almost-identical pages concerning donations in both wikis. I would think this is a political decision I do not want to get involved with, being a newcomer in the community. I just tried to move the page, but I cannot find/enable the More tab described in the Mediawiki help page. Maybe new users are not allowed to do this? --V4hn (talk) 08:44, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, you are right, one needs autoconfirmed user rights. @Harry Wood: What do you think about creating a wiki page in the OSMF wiki for the purpose of thanking donors? I personally appreciate the idea and suggest to redirect the page there, but I do not have write access to OSMF wiki. --Tigerfell (Let's talk) 12:29, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

I filed an issue for the Operations Working Group at openstreetmap/operations/issues/323 GitHub. --Tigerfell (Let's talk) 11:00, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
@V4hn: I asked them to change their configuration, but they need to know which link led you to NewRecurringDonorWelcome. I suggest you either answer them on GitHub or send an email to operations

Page on OSMF website
Hello :) I'm happy to create the page on the OSMF website. At the moment we have two thank-you pages on the OSM wiki: NewRecurringDonorWelcome and DonationThankYou, for one-off donations. Pondering on whether we just need a single page, with the content of the later. What do you think..? (@Harry Wood:?) (Let's talk) 00:46, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you! That is exactly my request. --Tigerfell (Let's talk) 18:08, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
Protected
At Tigerfell's suggestion, I semi-protected these two pages so that only registered, autoconfirmed users can edit them (not anonymous users or new accounts). – Minh Nguyễn 💬 03:08, 28 August 2019 (UTC)
- I am still trying to transfer this page to the OSMF wiki, but I guess this is a helpful temporary measure. Anonymous and non-emailconfirmed can not edit anyway ;-). @Minh Nguyen: Could you check the deleted versions of NewRecurringDonorWelcome if there is anything relevant (a helpful link?), so this content is not lost. --Tigerfell (Let's talk) 10:52, 28 August 2019 (UTC)
- @Tigerfell: I restored the deleted revisions for completeness' sake. – Minh Nguyễn 💬 15:03, 28 August 2019 (UTC)
Deletion?
The return addresses were changed. I propose either deletion or redirection to the new OSMF page. --Tigerfell (Let's talk) 21:05, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
