User talk:Kodabb

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 Kodabb. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Kodabb~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 00:59, 20 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi Kodabb, please go to Special:MergeAccount to merge your English and Italian accounts. Once the are merged they will not be renamed. All the best, Taketa (talk) 04:55, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Taketa, I am trying to do so but the page is reporting "This account has not yet been migrated to the unified account. If the global account is yours too, you can merge this account if you type the global account password:". I am not sure what this "global password" is, since the accounts are not yet migrated... Also only the it wikipedia is listed there for some reason.
 * Hi Kodabb, the global password is the password of your Italian account. Sincerely, Taketa (talk) 17:53, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Which is the one I can't recover =_= Is there any way you can reset it and send me a temporary password? Thanks
 * I have deleted the global account. Please go to Special:MergeAccount to create a new global account using your English Wikipedia password. The it.wikipedia account will be renamed in april. Since I was unable to confirm you are the same person, I will inform that account seperately of the coming rename. Sincerely, Taketa (talk) 21:09, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your help so far, but the merge process is incomplete since I can't fill in the other account password, and I can't reset it because I forgot which email I used...
