Jehovah's witnesses
Put this where you like after reading it. Anonymity, you are not paying attention to the talk page for the JW's article. Either that or you are reading other people's posts and attributing them to me. Or thirdly you are misunderstanding what I write to an absurd degree. Fourth, though not likely since I assume I read the same wikipages you do, is that someone is impersonating me.

I am one of Jehovah's witnesses. Do you see why I am confused now?

Your e-mail reply was insulting since you seem to have not read my posts very well or you would have noticed that I am one of Jehovah's witnesses. You appologize a lot for your words, I see why. I am not trying to be insulting, I am simply copying your style. Do you see how offensive the bluntness is? Protecting yourself by remaining anonymous is a good thing, but using your anonymity to be rude is not. It is silly to think that you can say things and then make them better by saying: "I am not trying to make you angry or insult you." george m

Anonymity, thanks for helping us with this subject. There is some Wikipedia etiquette you may not yet be aware of that will help smooth things as we talk: Tom - Talk 17:43, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Always sign your comments (at the end, not the beginning) using four tildes ~ ~ ~ ~.
 * It is a taboo to delete comments on talk pages. What we do is move old talk to archive pages.  Unfortunately, at Wikipedia, what is said is said, so we need to think thrice before speaking.  What you might do about comments you regret is apologize sincerely and humbly to the offended, and add  around it to cross it out.

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 Anonymity. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Anonymity~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 22:04, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
