User talk:Ben D~enwiki

Welcome!
Hi there! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions. I hope you like it here and stick around. If you want, you can drop us a note at New user log to introduce yourself.

A few tips before you start doing a lot of editing:


 * A few basic rules: Always write from a neutral point of view, be bold in editing pages, and use Wikiquette.


 * A handy page for newcomers is the welcome page. The Wikipedia tutorial also gives a lot of basic info that will help get you oriented on Wikipedia. If you have any other questions about the project then check out Help or Where to ask a question.


 * When you post something on a talk/discussion page, you can sign your name by using three tildes ( " ") for your username and four (" ~ ") for your username and a timestamp.


 * Remember to provide an edit summary when editing.


 * If you ever find yourself with nothing to do on Wikipedia, have a look at the Community Portal, you'll find that there's always something happening.

If you have any questions, comments, or just want to say hi, don't hesitate to write to me on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Happy editing! - Akamad Merry Christmas to all! 23:09, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

Hello!

My name is Klein.

You're a senior at Skyline High School? That's cool, I'm a sophomore there. Hope to see you on campus!

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 Ben D. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Ben D~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 22:28, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
