Wikipedia:Meetup/Sydney Mailing list

To send a message[edit]

Go to "Special:MassMessage"

The first input box is for the delivery list. Type in the full page name of this list page:

Wikipedia:Meetup/Sydney/Invite/MMS

• Next is the subject of the message, which will also be used as the edit summary. For this reason, it is limited to 240 bytes.
• Finally, the body of the message. This field accepts any valid wikitext, but it may warn you if it notices bad input. See #Input checking
• Hit Preview. This will load a preview of how your message will look on an example page.
• You can now either modify the message and preview it again, or if you are satisfied with your message, hit send. This will queue your delivery.
• You can visit "Special:Statistics" on your wiki to view how many messages are still queued in the job queue.
• Note that the default configuration will automatically convert all User pages into User talk pages - If you specify "User:Foo" in a delivery list, the message will be posted to "User talk:Foo".
