User talk:Mandos~enwiki

Welcome to Wikipedia.

When you get a chance, drop us a note at New user log to introduce yourself.

I see you've already found the deletion debate about Fafblog, which I guess is your creation. Please don't take this personally, one of my first articles was listed for deletion, it happens to many of us. I'm afraid I have to agree that this one doesn't belong as it is. If you want it kept, the way to do this is to edit the article to make it encyclopedic, whatever that means. Arguing for a policy change so as to keep a particular article has been tried by many new editors, and tends just to harden opinions against the article in question. Personally I can't see how this article could be made encyclopedic, but I've been wrong before.

You can sign your name on talk pages by using " " for your username and " ~ " for your username and a timestamp. We normally do this on discussion pages as a courtesy, but not in articles.


 * Welcome is a good place to start.
 * How does one edit a page gives editing help.
 * Manual of Style gives formatting info.
 * Policies and guidelines tell about the principles we operate on. It's important, but don't try to read it all now.
 * Help covers a broad range of useful topics.
 * Village pump is a place to ask questions.
 * Show preview explains how to double-check your edits before saving.

Please feel free to drop me a question on my talk page if there's anything you think I can help with. Andrewa 19:50, 17 Dec 2004 (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 Mandos. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Mandos~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 01:35, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
