Please update vote at Wikipedia:SOPA_initiative/Action

Hi Ryan, I noticed you indicated an interest in a blackout action at Wikipedia:SOPA_initiative/Action. However, your vote did not make it clear which type of action you supported. Could you please remove your oppose vote and add a support vote instead to one of the sections above? It's okay if you support any of them, just pick one and then say you support all the others too. Thank you! Dcoetzee 20:14, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I meant I oppose not doing a blackout. I guess that can be confusing though. Thanks for the message.--Ryan lane (talk) 21:04, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your input is needed on the SOPA initiative

Hi Ryan lane,

You are receiving this message either because you expressed an opinion about the proposed SOPA blackout before full blackout and soft blackout were adequately differentiated, or because you expressed general support without specifying a preference. Please ensure that your voice is heard by clarifying your position accordingly.

Thank you.

Christ, polling and talk pages in MediaWiki suck. Fixed. --Ryan lane (talk) 00:43, 15 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for informing me, though. Also, thank you for your work on this process as a whole.--Ryan lane (talk) 09:25, 15 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Recursive export

Currently you are in a special user group called recursive export that allows the user to export pages with linked pages beyond the limit applied to normal users. Do you still need this user right?--GZWDer (talk) 00:27, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nope! --Ryan lane (talk) 00:56, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
