Re Angela Merkel
Feel free to make edits you see fit. >why should anyone hide it or want to censor it,I wonder? I think the people that took it out have a POV... and are lacking a sense of humour.

>Do you think we could link [the Uncle Sam/Angie picture] up again ? I think it would be fair... especially if you explain that it was somewhat controversial. Nephron 05:38, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Danke schön
Thanks for your contributions in Geist (philosophy). I was wondering if you could cite your sources in its reference section? We are usually expected to cite the sources when we contribute unique, hard-to-find infomation (if they are from books, along with their ISBN). Thank you again. --BorgQueen 17:39, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Re: Geist (philosophy)
Thanks for the message, and I recommend you not to take it personal. In my observation people who take it personal usually do not stay for long here. I recommend you to visit Articles_for_deletion/Log/2005_September_27 and get some feelings about the general consensus for such issues, and know what kind of article is acceptable and what is not, and how to persuasively defend an article when it gets criticism. Please note that rules are not always set in stone and the consensus often decides the fate of a controversial or "borderline" article. I don't necessarily imply the Geist article is such case, but the Geist article _does_ need to be improved quickly.

Your suggestion of adding a painting is very interesting, however the painting must be connected to the subject of the article in some way, preferably in a direct way. By "direct way" I mean when the original title of the painting contains the word "Geist" for example. Let's do some research.

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 Guss. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Guss~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 00:21, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
