User talk:Lilgeopch81~enwiki

Hi! Welcome to Wikipedia! First and foremost, we are an encyclopedia. You should begin contributing by reading these pages:
 * 1) Start at Introduction. But if you're too busy to click through a few screens, try this basic table of how to write Wikipedia's links, headings, etc.
 * 2) You want to make sure you know the Five Pillars of Wikipedia. I've summarized them here (although you still should read the full page):
 * 3) *Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Try for accuracy and verifiability, and don't try to create articles about yourself, your friends, dog, school, or company... not, at least, until you have read the criteria for notability and know that what you're writing about meets those criteria.
 * 4) *Wikipedia has a neutral point of view policy. Give reasonable weight to all sides of an issue, without overemphasizing any one view, and without inflating fringe views.
 * 5) *Wikipedia is free content (licensed under the GFDL) and can be edited by anyone. No one is a webmaster (except maybe Jimmy Wales) and anyone can change any article that you make with certain exceptions.
 * 6) *Wikipedia does have a code of conduct. Do not attack anyone, and be civil, avoid making personal attacks, find consensus for your changes, avoid edit wars, follow the three-revert rule, and remember that there are about 2 million articles out there and you don't have to get into any disputes about any one article.
 * 7) *Wikipedia does not have any firm rules. Be bold, because nobody is perfect and you don't have to have a perfect encyclopedia article the first time around.  Don't worry about messing up, either, because all previous versions are kept (check the "History" tab at the top of the page for all those previous versions!) and can be accessed.
 * 8) There is a help page for new contributors.

And above all, this is an encyclopedia! Happy editing!~user:orngjce223 how am I typing? 20:39, 25 August 2007 (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 Lilgeopch81. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Lilgeopch81~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 01:21, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
