>> Hello,
>>
>> upon request at Czech Wikipedia's helpdesk I created a tool that sends
>> notifications about new weekly articles by e-mail together with its first
>> paragraph and link to it. To accomplish such a thing I need user's email,
>> so I firstly decided to store it in a database. To prevent this tool from
>> spamming I of course require its confirmation by accessing an URL with a
>> random string (MD5 hash of user's email *and* random number from 1 to
>> 100; I mean, those two things are in one hash). You can have a look at this
>> tool at tools.wmflabs.org/wiki2email/.
>>
>> My question is: Is this okay? Should I add some kind of formal
>> information to the tool? If so, is there some help page? Should I stop with
>> collecting mails at all and use some WMF-maintained service for
>> mass-emailing (mailman at lists.wikimedia.org maybe?) and make the tool
>> to just send an email to the list itself?
>>
>> This question came to my mind before creating, so I do appologize for
>> asking after programming.
>>
>> Best regards,
>> Martin Urbanec
