User talk:Athelstanus~enwiki

G'day!
G'day, Athelstanus! I notice you haven't been welcomed yet. Well, uh, please allow me to be the first to say: welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! One tip that I see will already come in very useful for you is this: did you know that if you end each of your edits on a talkpage with four tildes ~ it will automatically leave your name and a datestamp there, so that other users will know who said what? Jolly useful, I'm sure you'll agree. If you've got any questions, have a butcher's at Where to ask a question or feel free ask me on my talkpage.

By the way, we have a tradition on Wikipedia that revert wars are lame (even the ones that don't qualify as the lamest ever). Please try to keep a level head and not do anything utterly lame, even when talking to User:Skull 'n' Femurs. And, with that cheery note, welcome again! I hope you stick around. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 01:59, 7 December 2005 (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 Athelstanus. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Athelstanus~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 22:19, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
