Vandalism
If you do not sign your posts to my talk page, they will be deleted. Though with the initials AR... could it be? She's baaack. NickGorton 15:31, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

Hi there
Could the two of you please take your flamewar elsewhere? Wikipedia talk pages are really supposed to be for stuff relating to editing Wikipedia. The above "discussion" looks like something off a bad message board. You'll both be happier if you restrict yourselves to actually talking about articles rather than going back and forth with personal attacks. Isomorphic 05:32, 26 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Oh, and the "lay off the personal attacks" goes double for Angela. Isomorphic 05:34, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

Hmm, let's see, Nicki claimed that female sexuality is like "puttering around in a Yugo." As a female with intense sexual urges (who knows countless other perfectly normal women who are the same), I resent that stereotype. It is stupid, spurious, and disgusting. If that bigot has the right to poison Wiki articles with such spurious views, why don't I have the right to counter that bigotry? -- Angela


 * Question for you, Isomorphic, would you have the same problem with a person of color who flamed someone in response to being called a 'nigger'? If not then perhaps you need to reconsider your response. For someone who is transgender, being referred to by an inappropriate pronoun, or gendered name, or as a 'pretend' male (or female as the case may be) is the equivalent of being referred to by that racial epithet. Of course Angela's inane comments do about as much harm to me as someone calling my partner a 'nigger' (that is nada. To be honest, she's kind of amusing.) However, I believe you may be judging this by a double standard. I would be interested, however, to hear your comments about the appropriate response in the case of racial rather than gender identity bigotry. -Nick

LGBT
Hi Nick! Could you have a look at Talk:LGBT - seems before this debate goes on and on and on, a word from an MD might really help there. Thanks a lot, AlexR 23:27, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

OK, I will have a look at it tonight. NickGorton 16:17, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Hormone replacement therapy (trans)
Hi Nick. I was struggling for an alternative to 'non-trans' women as it didn't read very well. Cisgender is a whole lot better than 'natal'. Thanks for the correction! - Pete C &#9997; 20:27, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

Re: "Decency" project
Don't worry about that too much - it is hardly the first time that this kind of crusaders try to change the way WP works (although it is the first time they made up a "project" for it), and so far, they have not been exactly successfull. Might make for an interesting round of debates, though ;-) – AlexR 08:58, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

New Emergency Physician category and collaboration
I've started a new category of emergency physicians to encourage greater interest in related articles. Please help me to expand and improve the article on emergency department and perhaps later Emergency Medicine - perhaps we will eventually reach featured article status for these subjects.--File Éireann 18:05, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

The article Emergency department has now been nominated for an Article Improvement Drive. I would be very pleased if you could go to the Article Improvement link above and back the nomination. Its near the bottom of the page--File Éireann 19:39, 30 October 2005 (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 NickGorton. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name NickGorton~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 02:08, 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) 16:57, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
