User talk:Giraffesaretall~enwiki

Hi, please don't add nonsense to Wikipedia, as you have done with the Alex Mode article. Wikipedia is not for things you made up one day in school. You might also like to note that recreating articles that have been deleted is considered vandalism and may lead to you being blocked from editing. Thanks, Gw e rnol 04:46, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

I highly believe that I should not be blocked, because my article was not something I made up in school, because not only am I not in school, but I am a 41 year old Psychiatrist. This article I wrote was based on recent patient that I coined with this condition. I find it very offensive that you would not only block my account, delete my article twice, and accuse me of writing something that should be left at school. Next time, please do a little research before you block and accuse me of anything. Thanks, Dr. Harrowitz 09:53, 14 April 2006 (EST)


 * Hi, your account has not been blocked (note I said "may lead to..."). I did not delete your article (it was deleted by different administrators on each occasion). Please read the linked Wikipedia policy WP:NFT which clearly describes what is not acceptable in a Wikipedia article. By the way, I would expect a Psychiatrist to be able to spell the name of his own profession, but let's assume you are: your research has not been published, therefore it is original research and is not acceptable on Wikipedia. if you disagree with this, please go to deletion review and make your case there.

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 Giraffesaretall. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Giraffesaretall~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 00:11, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
