Editing User talk:Benjamin Mako Hill

==Untitled==
Hi

I started to edit the [[Definition/Unstable]] page and I seem to have done a complete rewrite.

Can you have a look and tell e what you think? [[User:Joe Raftery|Joe Raftery]] 15:21, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

==User rights==
As I understand it, moderators at this wiki have special voting privileges in addition to the technical abilities built into MediaWiki. I would be interested in simply having the latter tools to delete vandalism. Someday, I'd like to think that I could contribute enough to the mission to be a proper moderator, but in the meantime, do you think I could have those userrights? For what it's worth, I'm a trusted editor on several Wikimedia Foundation projects. [[User:Koavf|Koavf]] 05:42, 6 May 2012 (EDT)

:Looks like Eric helped you with admin rights. —<b>[[User:Benjamin Mako Hill|<font color="#C40099">m</font><font color="#600099">a</font><font color="#2D0399">k</font><font color="#362365">o</font>]][[User_talk:Benjamin Mako Hill|<font color="#000000">๛</font>]]</b> 10:42, 15 May 2012 (EDT)

== Dear ==

Hello
Dear mako
Excuse me.
I must reflect more, too.
In addition, become if not constructive.
Thank you for having you be careful.
I thank you.

== Account creation ==

Hi. Thank you for your contributions to the free culture movement. I was unable to create an account here the first time I tried. I saw "To protect the wiki against automated account creation, we kindly ask you to type the two words you see in the box below:". I did not see such "box below" (but I did see it with CAPTCHA the second time). After clicking "Create your account", I saw "Account creation error 
Incorrect or missing CAPTCHA." I am familiar with creating MediaWiki accounts and filling out CAPTCHA. [[User:Jeff G.|Jeff G.]] ([[User talk:Jeff G.|talk]]) 19:14, 3 January 2016 (EST)
:'''Fixed?''' It looks like it got resolved for you since you posted this comment. Is that correct? [[User:Koavf|Koavf]] ([[User talk:Koavf|talk]]) 19:17, 3 January 2016 (EST)
::Yes. OTOH, this wiki needs more active monitoring. Thank you. [[User:Jeff G.|Jeff G.]] ([[User talk:Jeff G.|talk]]) 19:32, 3 January 2016 (EST)
:::I'm glad you seem to have figured it out. I don't seem to be able to reproduce the problem. There are a few of us that do monitor to the wiki to various degrees. More help would certainly be useful. —<b>[[User:Benjamin Mako Hill|<font color="#C40099">m</font><font color="#600099">a</font><font color="#2D0399">k</font><font color="#362365">o</font>]][[User_talk:Benjamin Mako Hill|<font color="#000000">๛</font>]]</b> 20:57, 6 January 2016 (EST)

-:::To be totally clear, I didn't change anything on the server side at all.
