Greetings

@User:S.V.Chekanov hello. I am rather new here and wonder of I can be of any help. Sincerely yours, WikiHarold WikiHarold (talk) 18:06, 27 March 2026 (CDT)

@User: WikiHarold, yes, what's up?

@User:S.V.Chekanov, this site looks huge, i wonder if I could do anything useful. I just cleaned up the special page for [citation needed] etc. Maybe there is more to do?

@User:WikiHarold Thanks for contributing to this wiki. If you're interested in a specific topic, rather than correcting articles written by others, you can create a monograph or a wiki book at Monograph:Start (namespace: Monograph) or Book:Start (namespace: Book). In this case, your work will be indexed by search engines much faster and have better visibility. S.C.

@User:S.V.Chekanov, Thanks for responding. Some templates could use improvement/creation but are locked. How could I get permission to work on that? Best wishes, Harold

@User:WikiHarold We are working on removing Wikipedia-style templates, so there is no much point in changing them. Most of them will be gone.

@User:S.V.Chekanov, Oh, pitty. May I ask why? Is there a replacement?

@WikiHarold They are not maintainable after each mediawiki upgrade. They can only be done by well paid computer geeks.

@S.V.Chekanov You just found a geek who will do it for free! If you let me. 16:41, 2 April 2026 (CDT)

Donation

@S.V.Chekanov I tried to make a donation to HandWiki, but somehow it fails. Could you please help me? Thanks WikiHarold (talk) 04:45, 2 April 2026 (CDT)

@WikiHarold Thank you for noticing this! We’re terrible at collecting donations. Our GoFundMe page is long gone. We have updated "GoFundme donate" button in Donate to Handwiki. Sooner or later, the lack of finds may affect Handwiki's operation, if we will not do it right.

@S.V.Chekanov Anything I can do tho help? I LOVE this Wiki. WikiHarold (talk) 13:47, 2 April 2026 (CDT)
