User talk:Mencio~enwiki

Hello Mencio,

I've read your complaint to Mr. Wales.

I'm a wikipedian working in the Hebrew Wikipedia. Lately i too was the subject of abuse of power by sysops in my Wikipedia. I was banned for one week from Wikipedia after calling a sysop a "Pufferfish" during a dispute in a talk page. Granted, it was inappropriate of me to call him this way. However, i think it was also inappropriate of him to liken my comments in that dispute to a "flatulence". In fact, this comment of his was what spurred me to act rashly and call him a blowfish. Contrary to me, this sysop was not blocked, and not even told off (actually quite the contrary).

I would like to suggest to you starting together a trans-Wiki group that its purpose is to judge in cases of sysops' abuse of power. Of course, this "tribunal" will have no power to enforce its "verdicts". It could only recommend the members of the respective Wikipedias a course of action. However, if this group gains universal respect as judging fairly and having sensible recommendations, we may find that its recommendations have nevertheless real impact on the outcome of disputes.

I'd like to hear your opinion in this matter. -Itayb 17:27, 28 January 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 Mencio. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Mencio~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 01:45, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
