That's it! The best way would be an e-mail pointing to the prefered language of the user.

If so - would be better to send it via E-mail and pointed to the local discussion pages, no to meta and not in English. Mass spaming user discussion pages may piss off many admnins. In Polish Wikipedia according to local rules - mass spaming of user discussion pages is forbiden. I guess WMF can ignore it using a bot account which cannot be locally blocked - but I don't think it is good idea.

Good day!

As mentioned yesterday on Hangouts meeting it would be great to have a way for mass emailing users. If we want the Track B discussion to go somewhere we need the thoughts of: A- people who has been active in Wiki projects but now is not (and their reasons not to be active) and B- people who is active but is not used to look to discussions, sitenotices, village pumps and so on.


I think that we could have two ways for implementing this: a mass message in every user discussion and sending mails (mainly for A group) if the have their e-mail set up.


Is it / would be possible to make this somehow?
