[edit]Hello. It appears your talk page is becoming quite lengthy and is in need of archiving. According to Wikipedia's user talk page guidelines; "Large talk pages become difficult to read, strain the limits of older browsers, and load slowly over slow internet connections. As a rule of thumb, archive closed discussions when a talk page exceeds 75 KB or has multiple resolved or stale discussions." - this talk page is 1999.3 KB. See Help:Archiving a talk page for instructions on how to manually archive your talk page, or to arrange for automatic archiving using a bot. If you have any questions, place a {{help me}} notice on your talk page, or go to the help desk. Thank you. --Jax 0677 (talk) 21:21, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
Archived
[edit]Hi. As your talkpage had become extremely unwieldy due to it's size to the point that it was effecting users other than yourself, I have taken the liberty of archiving your talk page to User_talk:Timathom/Archive 1. Due to your 2 year period of inactivity, I have also placed this page in the category Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery, to prevent further delivery of all the newsletters that you were subscribed to, which to a large degree was responsible for your the large size of your talkpage. Please feel free to immediately and without prejudice remove this category from your page if and when you return if you so desire. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 07:50, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
Split archive
[edit]Jax 0677, you proposed restoring the massive state of this page so that the bot could split it into multiple archives of reasonable size. If the archive had contained several edits done by humans, I might have considered it. But it does not so I submit that splitting the archive serves no useful purpose. A much more useful useful thing to do is to unsubscribe this user from the Wikidata weekly summary and from Books and Bytes and this I have done. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 19:35, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Reply - @RHaworth:, I have taken the liberty of automating the split of the talk page archive on my own, because the page in question was humongous. Thanks! --Jax 0677 (talk) 16:22, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
