I did send Gregory an email shortly after he notified me that we were
accepted when the problematic apostrophe was pointed out to me.
We'd like to have the apostrophe removed, if possible.

We have updated everything to reflect the correct spelling. Although it
sounds like now you'd like no apostrophe?

No worries - it happens. :) I apologize that we did not bring it up
sooner. To be fair, someone on AffCom (Josh) did ask earlier and I'll
admit, I thought at the time it was intentional so did not bring it up in
our desire to get things approved for the group.
I will make sure the updates are

thread, is useful:
I'm presuming this is sanctions against Russia kicking in; all sorts
of business has been stopped dead in its tracks, not just charity
donations. There's even serious moves to kick Russia out of the SWIFT

I think that this is extremely important moment in the existence of

There were no recent changes in sanctions and I don't understand why this
turn off in donations happened just now.
Ideas about SWIFT kick out are not relevant here, as it was just a

Furthermore, the sanctions were placed on particular
Hello rubin16,
We are not running fundraising in Russia at this time, but I want to assure
you that this was not a decision motivated by politics.
We take compliance with appropriate laws very seriously in everything we
do. Out of an abundance of caution, we're not fundraising in Russia right
What about a notice for users from Russia: We are not able to process

Agree with all that, Svetlana - though we don't have a button at the top of
articles making it easy for readers to enable email alerts. 99.999% of
readers wouldn't know it was available. (This is something BLP subjects
would appreciate too, I'm sure.)

Actually, as I recall, email alerts for changes in articles has never been
activated on English Wikipedia.
