User talk:Hoco~enwiki

Honesty Company
I think the fundamental problem is not the quality of the article, nor its adult nature, but rather that the company itself is not very well-known.

Wikipedia is supposed to be larger than most encyclopedias, but we have to limit ourselves to subjects that are well-known enough that they can be edited not just by people who work with the company but by total strangers as well. That's the policy behind WP:CORP, the guidelines for inclusion of business articles. In short, Wiki only publishes articles after someone else publishes an article.

So there's your mission. Call up business magazines, local newspapers, even Playboy or SexHerald.com. Once they publish about Honesty Co, then it's verifiable and Wiki can keep the article up.

In the meantime, feel free to copy everything you wrote from The Honesty Company to your personal user page (User:Hoco). You're allowed to use user pages as sketchpads for things that aren't quite ready for the encyclopedia yet.

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 Hoco. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Hoco~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 00:36, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
