User talk:Mmm~enwiki

Hello, welcome to Wikipedia. I see you've been here a while, so I expect you know what you're doing by now, but if you do have any questions, you can ask at the help desk or on my talk page. Two useful tips are that you can sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ) and you can preview your changes before you save using the show preview button. You can regularly find new tips on the Community Portal. Feel free to introduce yourself at the new users page too. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. :) Angela. 06:28, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

Thanks! I was wondering if someone would stop by to say hi! Yes, I have enjoyed contributing a bit back to the web in this way. Looks like you have done a lot. Congratulations! Mmm 06:54, May 31, 2004 (UTC)

Birgus Latro (coconut crab)
Just like to let you know that i have seen Birgus latro close to five feet measured across the back carapace however not documented officially I'm from the island of Guam the largest of many islands of the Marianas. When I was growing up we had to rely a lot on our natural resources because our culture wasn't impacted by outside influences as we are now. As a kid we would go fishing around the other islands and make stops to harvest coconut crabs. Of the 14 islands in the Marianas only four heavily populated. Guam is the largest and is the commercial hub of the south pacific. Large coconut crabs still exist in these uninhabitated islands. Here is a picture of just how large they get. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.47.147.234 (talk) 16:46, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

WP:DISCLAIM
I've removed a disclaimer you've added here.Curb Chain (talk) 06:04, 24 May 2012 (UTC)


 * I added that because there is a notice on the relevant website which states that any materials derived from it should have language to this effect. Please see . The WP:DISCLAIM page is talking about information that is redundant with one of the standard disclaimers, and this is not one of those disclaimers. MMM (talk) 10:05, 27 May 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for November 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lemniscatic elliptic function, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lemniscate (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 12:32, 25 November 2012 (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 Mmm. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Mmm~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 01:53, 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) 16:27, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
