Re: Solomon Marcus Schiller-Szinessy
Re your messages: There seems to be some discrepancies over his middle name. While the birth certificate does show Marcus, various other online sources has his middle name as Mayer. Since there is this discrepancy, I am a bit leery about moving the article to one name or the other. I recommend that you ask the advice of other editors to see if this discrepancy can be resolved. You might want to ask at WikiProject Jewish history or WikiProject Judaism for assistance. I am sure that if you ask there, somebody will be willing to help.

On a different note, I had to remove the text you copied from AIM25 here into the article as it is unclear what the copyright status is of that text and it may not be authorized for inclusion on Wikipedia. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 08:03, 5 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Re your message: I want to clarify that I do not think you are wrong. It is just that there appears to be some discrepancies and it is better to work out the discrepancies with editors more knowledgeable about the subject.  My own knowledge about this subject is next to non-existent, so I do not feel that I am qualified enough to make a conclusion one way or another.  That is why I pointed you in the direction of the WikiProjects as there are more knowledgable editors there.


 * One issue that you may have proving that his middle name is Marcus instead of Mayer is that unless an outside reliable source has also concluded that his middle name is Marcus then your proof could be viewed as original research which is not allowed on Wikipedia. I do not think that you have this issue since multiple sources are listing his name both ways.  One suggestion I do have is that if you do resolve the issue, you may want to change the lead of the article such that it notes the erroneous name.  For example:


 * Solomon Marcus Schiller-Szinessy, sometimes called Solomon Mayer Schiller-Szinessy, was a Hungarian...


 * That way other readers will be aware that sometimes his name is improperly listed. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 08:48, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
 * The page has been moved. It can always be moved back if others think it's wrong --Steven J. Anderson (talk) 19:26, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Thank You
very much, this is definitely the correct way! I can send you a picture of his tombstone in Ipswich Suffolk, at the Old Jewish Cemetary on Ipswich dockland (little known enclosed burial ground for jews) where his name says Marcus as well. If there should be ever any doubt at all, I have other family certificates (marriage etc.) to prove it.

I am very gratefull to you both, taking time and changing the name the way it should be. Now that I found it by chance, I will translate it sometime soon and put it on german wikipedia as well.

Have a good life

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 Barbados66. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Barbados66~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 22:23, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
