User talk:Hynkel~enwiki

Please take a look at Wikipedia is not myspace and consider whether Wikipedia is the right place for you. We try to welcome contructive contributors. S HEFFIELD S TEEL TALK 21:11, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I am an animation historian, well within the parameter of what you would consider a positive contributor. --Hynkel (talk) 05:25, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Maybe so, but this edit - your only content edit - is in no way within the parameters of positive contribution - it is vandalism. Tvoz / talk 05:32, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * You're right, I only changed the link word, the text itself was still incorrect. I'm actually quite proud of that, it's hilarious in its subtlety.--Hynkel (talk) 05:43, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * No, actually the text itself was correct - your link was incorrect, and deliberately so. That is what we consider to be vandalism, not subtle, and certainly not hilarious. Not even mildly amusing, in fact. We're here to build an encyclopedia, not to entertain individual editors, and as Sheffield mentioned above, perhaps this is not the place for you, since you've done nothing constructive. Please consider that all that edit did was cause someone else work to fix it. Tvoz / talk 05:53, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * If you're wanting to experiment, do so on your own page or preferably the sandbox, rather than in articles, else your stay here will likely be rather short. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 05:50, 3 December 2008 (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 Hynkel. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Hynkel~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 00:39, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
