Tradewars external links
I welcome you to add inline citations if there is truely information that is referenced in the article. Let me list the links I deleted, and why: Please see our external links guideline for requirements regarding external links. Hope this helps. /Blaxthos 04:20, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The Cabal's Secret Hideout - The best TW info site on the net! --
 * Who says it's "the best"? This is the closest thing to a source out of the bunch, but it's not listed as a reference (and not cited in the text)
 * TWX Proxy - The veteran's Tradewars Helper!
 * ATTAC - Commercial Windows Helper
 * SWATH - Commercial Windows Helper with GUI map
 * Helpers are applications, not references. These promote external programs, (some) are for-profit, and do not contribute to the article
 * Telnet Sites - The Stardock's list of TradeWars 2002 networks
 * Lists of Tradewars servers (i.e. links that exist solely to promote other websites) are not appropriate


 * I've run Tradewars servers since the early 1990's, both as BBS doors and as TWGS (as recently as 2 years ago). I own Swath, and several other helpers, and I understand how to play the game.  Once again, sites that exist to promote their commercial products (ie helpers) are not appropriate links for wikipedia.  The purpose of a wikipedia article is to actually describe TW and its significance -- Wikipedia is not a place to host or promote strategy guides, player tips, etc.  I know you've self-identified as a Tradewars fanatic (paraphrased) but that does not mean that we're going to violate or change the rules so you can include your favorite Tradewars helper and information sites.  To clarify again, if you can demonstrate exactly where information is being referenced in the article then you may link those sites via inline citations, as long as those sites meet our reliable source requirements.  Hope this helps.  /Blaxthos 13:58, 16 April 2007 (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 Cernnunos. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Cernnunos~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 22:58, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
