Yes, there are many articles in need of attention. Your help to fix these problems would be very welcome. violet/riga (t) 22:40, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

An interesting comment. I've never really been interested in copyediting articles, to be honest, and didn't do that much before becoming an admin. I did, however, expand and create many articles. I try to create as many articles as possible, but only tend to do it on subjects that interest me. I guess that's the same for most people. Yes, I also do lots of "janitorial tasks", but that's while I'm not focussed on, for example, tobacco advertising. violet/riga (t) 22:54, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

Thankfully we have a lot of people that do help out with the cleaning jobs. I do my bit at WP:RM, others spend a lot of time on RC patrol and VfDs. We are, as you said, very short on the number of people volunteering to help out on fixing bad prose, wikicode and overall article standards. They will all (most) be fixed, however, but it all takes time. A long time, on many occasions. Sorry to hear you got disillusioned - I think we all feel that from time to time. violet/riga (t) 23:17, 19 July 2005 (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 Hendiadioin. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Hendiadioin~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 00:19, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
