User talk:Adrianc~enwiki

Hello, welcome to Wikipedia!

To get you up and running very quickly, here are some links that will help you get started:
 * About Wikipedia
 * Introduction
 * Tutorial
 * Manual of style

The help page, for which there is always a link in the navigation menu on the left-hand side of your screen, includes links to the above pages as well as to everything else you could possibly need to know about Wikipedia and how the Wikipedia community operates.

Be sure to drop us a note at New user log so we can meet you and help you get started.

Here are some things that new users sometimes have trouble with, and you will soon find these tips useful:
 * When you write messages on talk pages, be sure to sign your name. You can do this using three tildes, like Go for it!. If you use four, a datestamp is automatically added. Five provides the datestamp only.
 * Remember to check your work using the Show preview button before you save. This helps prevent mistakes (and the edits used to correct them).  Thank you.
 * Here is information about what you can do with your User page.

I hope you enjoy your experience at Wikipedia and decide to stay. Sincerely, --Go for it!

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 Adrianc. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Adrianc~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 21:39, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

 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.
