User talk:Achimthepooh~enwiki

Welcome!

Hello, Achimthepooh, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may be removed if they have not yet been. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. As well, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * Tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Simplified Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or you can type   on your user page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. --Yamla 15:27, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you insert a spam link, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted as well, preventing anyone from linking to them from any site that uses the MediaWiki spam blacklist, which includes all of Wikimedia and Wikipedia. --Yamla 14:19, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Why I have been warned??
Hello, I don't understand anything at all! I just wanted to add the link to my Winnie-the-Pooh-Page which contains many interesting facts about Milne's famous Childrens Book, and as a result I have been warned (!) to be blocked...!! — What IS Wikipedia? A place where only some "VIPs" can insert some texts? I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED!

 * The message above that Yamla left last January gives policy-driven reasons why not every link to everyone's personal website is accepted on Wikipedia. You have submitted that same link four times to the Winnie-the-Pooh page, and each time it was reverted for the same reasons. Please take a moment to reread the external links guideline. Additionally, while your website does contain interesting (albeit seemingly unsourced) information on the cuddly bear, your website is written in German -- quite inappropriate for the English-language Wikipedia. You might consider visiting the German-language Wikipedia and seeing if they might be interested in including your link. --  LeCour  T:C 19:32, 16 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Another remark here. Wikipedia is not a place where only VIPs can insert some text, anyone can!  But you are not inserting text, you are inserting weblinks only.  It has now been noticed that you are doing that on wikis in different languages, and you can see this as your final warning.  Any further additions of this link by you will result in a block, and subsequently in blacklisting of the link.  The latter has a result that the link can not be used on any of the wikipedia that use the blacklist, however useful the link may be.  Hope this explains.  --Dirk Beetstra T  C 15:44, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Poohsticks. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

 * a) The links you're adding are not appropriate for Wikipedia, as per the WP:EL policy. b) Your username is also inappropriate, and since it matches the name of the website, such promotion is considered WP:SPAM and is not at all permitted.  You agreed to never write about yourself, or link to your persona/corporate websites - so stop.  ES  &#38;L  20:34, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Achimthepooh. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Achimthepooh~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 21:35, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 10:11, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
