Notice to Correspondents
Time constraints and the volume of correspondence I receive elsewhere make it unlikely that I shall see any message very soon after you post here. But thank you for writing and be assured that a cross section of correspondence to me is presented to me regularly.

Ah, person pretending to be Elizabeth II. Very amusing. john k 03:39, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

Complaint
On the assumption that you are not, in reality, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom (of whom, as a British citizen, I am a subject), then I find your impersonation, and mocking comments, highly offensive. It is also a contravention of Wikipedia policy. From WP:USERNAME: ''Wikipedia does not allow certain types of usernames, including the following...Names of well-known living or recently deceased people, such as Chuck Norris or Ken Lay, unless you are that living person. If you are, please note this on your user page.'' If, of course, you are genuinely the Queen, then I sincerely apologise for my impertinence. Walton monarchist89 19:41, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Complaint 2
I'm sure many Scottish subjects of the Queen would object to your comment about "making sense of the Ghillies' thick accents. How do they understand each other?". Also I would remove the 'gotten' from your userpage... Her Majesty would not make such an embarassing grammatical mistake! --Cameron (t|p|c) 19:23, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if you noticed or not but this account hasn't been used since August 2005, so they probably won't be responding. Given the account is abandoned and was being used to impersonate a living person, I've blanked the userpage. Sarah 04:18, 1 May 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 Ma'am. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Ma'am~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 01:15, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 15:45, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
