Is there any news on Iryna?
[edit]Have any page watchers heard from Iryna? I've been thinking for a while that it's been a while since I saw her name appear on my watchlist, and when I checked how long it had been today, it's actually longer than I thought. I know that she'd been unwell for some time. I just tried e-mailing her but the message bounced. Cordless Larry (talk) 21:04, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
- Pinging Ymblanter, Faustian, RGloucester, Pincrete, My very best wishes, JimRenge, LynwoodF, in case any of you have heard anything. Cordless Larry (talk) 17:06, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
- No, I do not know anything. Ymblanter (talk) 17:07, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
- No, I have heard nothing either. I have been concerned about her for a while. She is one of those people who make it a pleasure to work on WP. We co-operated briefly on a Ukraine-related matter, but that was long before the invasion began. LynwoodF (talk) 18:19, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
- Don't know anything you don't know ie that there were health concerns up to mid-2020. If you find anything out, please let me know. Hopefully she'll turn up and tell us to get off her talk page!Pincrete (talk) 18:34, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
- I have no news from her. I assume that she would be still editing if she would be able to do so. JimRenge (talk) 18:54, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

- No, I do not know anything. Perhaps she decided to do something less stressful than editing here. My very best wishes (talk) 03:19, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
- I saw this on my watchlist: Mass message log "21:44, 4 February 2023 Delivery of "The Signpost: 4 February 2023" to User talk:Iryna Harpy was skipped because the target has opted-out of message delivery". JimRenge (talk) 22:44, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
- JimRenge, unfortunately I don't think that's due to Iryna's actions but rather this by Heavy Water, which added this page to Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery and Category:Wikipedians who opt out of template messages. Cordless Larry (talk) 22:56, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Cordless Larry: Sorry, I noticed she had not edited since then and tagged the page, not realizing these implications. I can self-revert. Heavy Water (talk) 23:58, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
- I don't think that's necessary, Heavy Water. I wasn't criticising you, just noting that while it might have looked like Iryna had been active here, this isn't a sign of that. Cordless Larry (talk) 12:29, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
