User talk:Hina~enwiki

This area may appear a bit disorganized for a while. I'll be using my talk area to practice my "wiki-syntax" (sandbox is a bit too busy - I keep getting editing conflicts). --Hina 01:47, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)

This is an outline of a few conventions and standards that we should use when creating or editing wiki pages. While use of these standards is not required, and will sometimes not be appropriate for a specific type of content, we should adhere to them whenever possible to improve the consistency of the content we produce.

Most of this has been borrowed from various conventions and standards established for Wikipedia. The intent of this page is to summarize those areas that we feel are the most important and references will be added for additional detail directly from Wikipedia. It should be noted that not all the referenced material will be applicable in our environment.

General
Any "article-style" pages (like this one) should start with one or more short introductory paragraph(s) explaining the purpose of the article. The title of the page should be contained in the first sentence, and should be in bold text. A section header should follow the introductory paragraph. As more than four section headers are added to the article, this will trigger the placement of a table-of-contents in the proper location (following the introduction).

Specific
This section contains a few specific conventions that would be good to follow.

Discussion pages
Conventions that are unique within discussion pages include:


 * Add signature to comments

Naming conventions
Guidelines for creating and naming pages. For additional information, look at the Wikipedia page on naming conventions.

Test Meeting Template
This is a test of a table to handle standard meta-information at the top of meeting minutes.

The meeting agenda/minutes should be combined in this space. There should be a notes/decision section, and the last section should be a list of action items.

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 Hina. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Hina~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)
