Re: [Wikimedia-l] FW: My final email

2016-08-22 Thread Caitlin Cogdill
Hi Craig, John,

https://www.pages04.net/wikimedia/WMFUnsubscribe/ is the unsubscribe page
hosted by our email service provider. We hope to migrate back to using page
hosted in-house (see T99821 ),
however we've found for the time being that using our ESP's page has been
the safest way to manage unsubscribes, especially when sending to large
groups of people.

The link Peter provided populated his email address because it was tied to
his record in our email database. As he pointed out, we send a few emails a
year to each past donor, usually across a 1 month period, to prompt
renewing their donation. If they fill out that unsubscribe page, they won't
receive emails from the Fundraising team again unless they request to be
opted back in.

I hope that answers your questions.

Best,
Caitlin

Thank you Caitlin, that actually addresses the problem, and I think that will 
be a significant improvement. It would also be nice if I didn’t have to opt out 
of something I don’t think I ever opted into.

Hi Peter,

I can appreciate that the text on the page seems vague in terms of defining to 
what list the opt-out will apply. We're going to edit the header on the page to 
specifically say "Fundraising email". I hope that helps clarify for other

And, I presume, password reminders, Wikipedia system emails, talkpage
notification emails, incidental invitations for research participation etc?
That would at least be the by me expected behaviour.

I guess there's a more accurate description for the unsubscribe link
imaginable in that case though :) (for future improvements)

Hey Peter,

So you can unsubscribe from the fundraising and WMF newsletter emails via
that form and you will remain on lists such as Wikimedia-l.

Hope that helps.

That link says "Unsubscribe from Wikimedia Email" I am subscribed to a whole 
lot of email from Wikimedia. I only want to unsubscribe from that specific one.
Problem? Vague and unspecific information and suggestion of possible 
unspecified consequences. Unfortunately this is the kind of language I have

WMF has given them a copy of (a subset of..?) the donor email list, as this

Every year he says it is the final email, so far that has not turned out to be

If I click on the unsubscribe link and it actually does what it claims, it will

Well, he *did* say it was his final email!

I'd imagine the unsubscribe link would get you off the "former donors we can

Re: [Wikimedia-l] FW: My final email

2016-08-17 Thread John Mark Vandenberg
What is https://www.pages04.net/ ?

WMF has given them a copy of (a subset of..?) the donor email list, as
this link has Peter's email address on the page:

https://www.pages04.net/wikimedia/WMFUnsubscribe/Unsubscribe?spMailingID=52077018&spUserID=Mzk5NjI0Mzk2ODUS1&spJobID=OTgyOTg3MDUyS0&spReportId=OTgyOTg3MDUyS0

If you dont want to try that link, the following will give you a
general idea of the form donors are being directed to:

Well, he *did* say it was his final email!

I'd imagine the unsubscribe link would get you off the "former donors we
can spam" list without removing you from this august list.

Cheers,
Craig
