Adoption
Hi,

I'd be interested in adopting you, I'm seeking a very ENTHUSIASTIC new Wikipedian who wants to learn about all areas of Wikipedia. My specialist areas are all aspects of Anti-Vandalism, Mediation Cabel and Abuse Reports. I'm a 17 Yr old australian bloke so if your interested drop me a line and come along for the ride :) I am currently developing a program for Adoptees so that you can walk out of your adoption with all the knowlege to survive on Wikipedia if you would like further information please feel free to contact me  « l | Ψrom3th3ăn ™ | l »  11:15, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

re: Adoption
Hi there, I would be happy to adopt. Is that in addition to Prom3th3an (above) or instead of? Feel free to ask me whatever questions you have about the article you're writing. -- Beloved Freak  19:29, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

hi belovedfreak

thx for your answer! It's instead of ;-)

Ok, I worte an article on the German wiki page, see:

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orderman

Now I want to publish a similar article on the english page. However, in order to give relevance to my article I had to proove that it's the worldwide market leader in this special field and that it's innovation leader as well. The references I added are in German. My question is now: Can I also add German references on the english page or not?

thx for your quick help! --Nisse149 (talk) 10:41, 13 June 2008 (UTC)Nisse 149
 * Hi. The short answer is yes, you can add German references to the article. According to Wikipedia:Verifiability, English sources are preferred, but obviously if there are no equivalent English sources, then the German ones should be fine. They still need to be reliable sources. So, I would go ahead and create the article. If you're still not sure, create it in your user space and get someone (eg. me) to check it. Hope this helps, -- Beloved Freak  07:39, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello Belovedfreak

I'm sorry for not having answered for some time. I now put the article on my user page, without internal Wikipedia links. I know it's not supposed to be there but I was not able to find the correct place. I'm quite inexperienced with these things. Please give me feedback as soon as possible! Thank you very much in advance!!!--Nisse149 (talk) 13:52, 24 June 2008 (UTC)Nisse 149

Adoption
It appears you have already reached an adoption deal, apologies for the late reply as I've been extremely busy lately! However if you ever need any guidance, I'm sure any of the adopters and myself will be happy to work with you. /Marbles (talk) 08:19, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

Orderman article
Hi, I have looked over your draft for the Orderman article on your userpage. It looks like you have made a good start. It asserts notability (being a world leader in its field) and has coverage in independant sources, so that all looks good. I'm not an expert articles about companies though, and I only know a little German, so it's hard for me to tell if it would definitely pass notability guidelines for companies. If you want, it might be a good idea to ask people's opinions at the talkpage for that guideline.

Otherwise, it looks like you could publish the article "live" at Orderman or Orderman GmbH, whichever is the proper name. It may have to be reworded a bit as some of it looks a little like advertising, but that can be sorted. I hope you don't mind me asking, but are you connected to the company in some way? That could be a problem later if you are. Editors are strongly discouraged from creating articles about subjects they are connected to in any way. All the best, -- Beloved Freak  15:55, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello Belovedfreak

I wrote a note on the Notability page friday morning but until now nobody answered. Can you tell me which words you find too much like advertisement so that I can change them? Thx! --Nisse149 (talk) 11:28, 30 June 2008 (UTC)Nisse 149
 * Hi, sorry I didn't respond earlier, I forgot to watch your talkpage, but it's on my watchlist now. I've reworded your draft slightly, feel free to change it back if you disagree with my changes. The problem (as I see it) is not so much the language, but the focus on the product. I'm sorry you didn't get any reply from Wikipedia talk:Notability (organizations and companies). Probably the best thing would be to post it "live" (ie. at Orderman or Orderman GmbH) and hope that it doesn't get deleted. As I said before, I'm not too familiar with notability for companies. I would also leave a message at the article talkpage explaining your sources - what they say & what where they come from. That will help overcome the language barrier. In the mean time, why don't you try editing some other articles you're interested to get more familiar with Wikipedia in general? -- Beloved Freak  09:48, 4 July 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 Nisse149. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Nisse149~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 01:49, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
