DYK for AMES Type 6
[edit]
On 24 September 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article AMES Type 6, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that during the Tunisian campaign in World War II, crews carried an AMES Type 6 radar set across a swamp to allow them to spy on Luftwaffe aircraft running supplies into Tunis? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/AMES Type 6. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, AMES Type 6), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Invitation to participate in a research
[edit]Hello,
The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.
You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.
The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .
Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
Kind Regards,
