User talk:Altesys~enwiki

Welcome to Wikipedia!
Dear Altesys: Welcome to Wikipedia, a free and open-content encyclopedia. I hope you enjoy contributing. To help get you settled in, I thought you might find the following pages useful:


 * Five Pillars of Wikipedia
 * Community Portal
 * Frequently Asked Questions
 * How to edit a page
 * How to revert to a previous version of a page
 * Tutorial
 * Copyrights
 * Shortcuts

Don't worry too much about being perfect. Very few of us are! Just in case you are not perfect, click here to see how you can avoid making common mistakes.

If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Wikipedians try to follow a strict policy of never biting new users. If you are unsure of how to do something, you are welcome to ask a more experienced user such as an administrator. One last bit of advice: please sign any discussion comment with four tildes (~&#126;). The software will automatically convert this into your signature which can be altered in the "Preferences" tab at the top of the screen. I hope I have not overwhelmed you with information. If you need any help just let me know. Once again welcome to Wikipedia, and don't forget to tell us about yourself and be BOLD! --A. B. 13:30, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Do not remove deletion notices from pages that you have created yourself
Please do not remove speedy deletion tags from articles that you have created yourself. If you do not believe the article deserves to be deleted, then please place on the page and make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you.

This is the text from the deletion notice you just removed from Eustachio:
 * "do not remove this notice from pages that you have created yourself"

The addition of your company's link to VoIP phone has been reverted
You're not allowed to add these links directly. See the policies I highlighted for you earlier about external links and conflicts of interest. If you believe your company is a sufficiently notable supplier of these products to go on the list with the other vendors, you can request another editor consider adding it -- to do this, leave a note at Talk:VoIP phone. --A.

Wikipedia's worldwide blacklist of spammers - could you be next?
Please see the discussion of Wikipedia's spam blacklist and decide if this is something you want to pursue. Links to domains added to this list are blocked not only in the English language version of Wikipedia but also in every other language version plus all other Wikipedia Foundation projects such as Wikihow, Wiktionary, etc.

It's permanent.

Think about it.

Also note this recent discussion about a proposed initiative to publish our list of Wikipedia spammers for use by Google and other search engines building their own blacklists. It's unclear that this initiative will come to fruition, but if it does, you would not want to be blacklisted from Google (and deleted from all Google search results).

Cheers, --A. B. 17:10, 26 October 2006 (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 Altesys. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Altesys~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 21:53, 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) 10:23, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
