Miss you

Die Fliege

Thank you for the immense contributions to French and German culture that we wouldn't have without you. Who will help me with Opéra de Montréal, a sad stub mentioned on the Main page? We can talk on the German Wikipedia, - you might drop help for that article on my talk there, for example. I'd understand, however, if you had no further intention to help here. Merci. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:56, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I will miss you too. Thanks for what you've done. Thanks for translating over 6000 German and French articles into English. Thanks for the immense work, you have done. You are a loss for the whole Wikipedia project. You can contact me under de:Benutzer Diskussion:Grimes2. Grimes2 (talk) 09:08, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Offer

Thanks for responding to my question at AN regarding your language skills. (Actually, based on your last response at AN (diff, perma) and your user page, you're a bit higher than an en-3; I'd place you probably around en-3.5 or en-3.7, but the {{Babel}} template does not permit that.) Unfortunately, I learned of that AN discussion too late to take part in a substantive way. The discussion there is over now, so I don't wish to rehash it; I don't know how I would have voted on the block, and what I "might have said" in the discussion would not be relevant or helpful to you now.

However, I did want to let you know (perhaps you already do) that an indefinite block is not an infinite block, and if you did want to contribute again at some point in the future, an appeal for an unblock is not impossible. I don't think that road would be an easy one, and if you choose to go that route, I think you should let some time elapse first (probably six months at least) and then marshal your resources and think about your approach for how to go about it. It sounds like Gerda would be willing to help out if you asked, she is clearly an ally, and if you pinged me I would be willing to give you some feedback about your plans to come back. I'm struggling with how to say this properly so it doesn't come out wrong: you shouldn't view me either as an ally or as someone who's out to get you, because I'm neither; rather, you should see me as someone who is willing to help you attempt a return, even if it involves saying some things straight up that might be hard for you to hear, but could increase your chances of success. If you want that, ping me in six months or so, or email me via the link on the left sidebar on my Talk page, if you prefer a private connection, although I prefer open communication as much as feasible. (Gerda, you can do the same, if you initiate something.) In the meantime, enjoy a break, get out and smell the roses, and don't think about Wikipedia. If and when you're ready to think about a comeback and want some feedback about it, let me know. Good luck, Mathglot (talk) 16:56, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Luftangriff auf Magdeburg

LouisAlain, You mentioned this German article at AN, and I wondered if you've started work on it someplace. I could maybe finish it. I don't see anything in Draft: space. Mathglot (talk) 23:41, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
