Everything I Hate About You
Howdy and welcome to Wikipedia. It is perhaps not the best way to introduce myself, but I wanted to let you know I nominated the page you created Everything I Hate About You for deletion. In general, articles on Wikipedia need to be about things which appear in news, books, or other indpendent sources (the verifiable and notable policies discuss this). I nominated the article per the What wikipedia is not policy and general notability concerns.

To talk you though the process, I nominated the article under a Proposed deletion. If the notice is on the page for five days, the article is deleted. A second method of deletion also exists, called article for deletion, which takes seven days and provides an open forum for discussion. There is a third method of deletion, called speedy deletion, which is not relevant here.

A complete list of policies can be found at WP:POLICY. It may be good to look over them, if you would like. But by no means must you read them to discuss things.

If you feel that the article does meet the requirements under these policies, feel free to remove the tag and I'll forward it to an article for deletion process (once the AfD tag is in place, however, it should not be removed -- and will say so at the top). You are welcome to discuss the reasons why you think the article is notable and verifiable on that page. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you have any questions or I can help with anything. You can also put the message on this page, and someone will reply here to answer questions. I am adding a welcome message below, since it has some useful links. Although we may disagree about this article, I hope you'll stick around and continue to work on Wikipedia. Thanks, --Hansnesse 07:04, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I see you removed the tag, which is fine. I went ahead and put it forward to articles for deletion (AfD).  This new tag should not be removed.  The AfD process usually takes seven days and operates on consensus.  Users (including you) are invited to comment on the deletion, and in seven days, an administrator makes a decision about it/assesses the consensus.  Thanks, --Hansnesse 07:11, 26 February 2006 (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 Luap. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Luap~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 01:26, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
