Thank you Deb for your welcome message. My english is not perfect but i try to write about artists for whom there are not so much informations on the internet. I go slowly but I am a very serious person, who loves history and culture. So could I take off the "unclear importance" template? Okay, I have removed it! Deb 11:46, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

WOW!!! You are so FIRST!!!

DEFAULTSORT
Hi, and welcome. Let me explain the DEFAULTSORT like I added to Aki Kuroda. When you look at a category, like, we want all of the articles to be sorted by the family name (Kuroda). But, since the article name starts with the given name (Aki), we have to tell the computer to display it in the other order. Until recently, this was done by adding |Kuroda, Aki in each category tag at the bottom of the page. However, the newest wikipedia software lets us avoid all the redundant cases of Kuroda, Aki on several lines (if the article has many categories), and just make one DEFAULTSORT order. I hope this explains it, but, if you have any other questions, please let me know. Neier 10:56, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Thank you so much!!!

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 Artist in France. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Artist in France~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 22:09, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
